     1.2 Prior year adjustment                                                  
     In the prior year deferred taxation was provided on the straight-line      
rental adjustment for properties owned by the Fund. Confirmation that      
     the Fund is deemed to be a vesting trust for taxation purposes requires    
     that no deferred taxation should be provided on the straight-line          
     rental adjustment for properties owned by the Fund. The financial          
statements of the prior period have been restated to reflect this          
     change. The effect of the restatement on the financial statements is       
     summarised below:

     1. Name and directorship changes                                           
     Following the acquisition of the Fund"s management company by Old          
Mutual Property Group, the name of the Fund will be changing to SA         
     Corporate Real Estate Fund in October 2006.  This name identifies with     
     the new direction that the Fund will be pursuing with regard to the        
     active expansion of the portfolio as well as the positioning of the        
Fund to attract significant domestic and foreign equity investment.        
     A circular regarding the name change will be posted to unitholders on      
     20 September 2006 with an effective date of 16 October 2006. The new       
     JSE share code is SAC and the revised logo of the Fund is set out          
below.                                                                     
     With effect from 7 July 2006 Messrs Tony Ardington, Mick Hyatt and Mike    
     Mun-Gavin resigned from the board of the management company and have       
     been replaced by Old Mutual Property Group executives, Ben Kodisang,       
Colin Young and Michael Anderson.                                          
     2. Results                                                                 
     Unitholders have been advised of the change in the Fund"s year end to      
     31 December and, accordingly, the results reported on are in respect of    
the twelve months ended 31 July 2006.  The next reported results period    
     will be for the seventeen months to 31 December 2006.                      
     As anticipated, the six months to 31 July 2006 have seen a much            
     improved performance from the Fund"s standing property portfolio,          
signalling the end of the negative rental reversions which have            
     constrained earnings and distribution growth in recent years.  The         
     rental growth attributable to the core portfolio has been sustained by     
     the strong underlying property fundamentals and management is confident    
that unitholders can expect distributions to grow in line with sector      
     expectations in the years ahead.                                           
     Distributable income for the six months to 31 July 2006 amounts to R97     
     926 000 or 13,50 cents per unit.  This distribution is some 8% higher      
than the interim distribution paid for the six months to 31 January        
     2006 and, while the previously reported negative reversions have also      
     impacted on the second six months, the balance of the portfolio has        
     performed very well to deliver this over all growth.                       
Vacancies in the portfolio continue to be contained at some 1,5% of        
     total lettable area, which indicates a strong rental demand for good       
     quality, well located property assets.  The portfolio outperformed both    
     the listed fund benchmark and the IPD Universe benchmark in the annual     
IPD index for 2005, with a total return of some 34,4% measured against     
     the Universe return of 28,8%.  In the index, industrial property was       
     the top performing property type with a total return of 33,1% and the      
     Fund"s industrial portfolio delivered 40,5%. This underpinned the          
portfolio"s strong performance against the benchmark.                      
     3. Portfolio activity                                                      
     In the twelve months to 31 July 2006 the Fund disposed of the following    
     properties:

The following properties were acquired in the twelve months. These

     Two developments were concluded during the reporting period.  These        
     developments have generated income yields in excess of what would have     
been expected on a direct investment basis and will contribute

     The Fund has also contracted to acquire two properties in Gauteng,         
     transfer of which is expected by the middle of September 2006.  An         
office property, leased to ABSA Bank Limited, has been acquired for R33    
     000 000, and an industrial property, leased to Nampak Limited, has been    
     purchased for R32 400 000.                                                 
     The completion of a distribution and warehousing complex for the Fuel      
Group in the Western Cape at the end of August 2006 for a total cost of    
     R70 900 000 will generate a 10,25% initial yield for the Fund.             
     4. Portfolio revaluation                                                   
     The Fund"s property portfolio was valued at R2,6 billion at 31 July        
2006.  A comparison of the standing portfolio shows an increase in         
     value of 12,4% over that at 31 July 2005.  This increase is indicative     
     of the prevailing strength in the direct property market, with sound       
     rental fundamentals being compounded by increased investor demand for      
these assets.  The Fund"s net asset value has increased to 287 cents       
     per unit from 258 cents per unit twelve months ago.                        
     5. Borrowings                                                              
     At the end of July 2006, the Fund had borrowings of R538 000 000.  This    
constitutes some 21% of the value of the property portfolio and is a       
     relatively low debt level in the current investment environment.  The      
     interest cost on this debt is at prime less 2,3% and is currently on a     
     variable rate basis.
