However, retailer occupancy cost- to-turnover ratios remain well within acceptable industry norms RSA retailer expansion of international brands within existing operations (Edcon & Foschini) and interest from European and Australian international retailers creating demand at prime centres Vacancies are at historical average and vacancy level at top 10 centres is below 1.5% if areas under development are excluded Second tier shopping centre performance under pressure in terms of tenant retention, renewal rental levels and arrears Cost containment remains difficult - especially labour intensive services and administration costs. Implementation of new municipal valuation roll in 2013 could impact rental affordability levels Redevelopments/Refurbishments/Extensions progressing well with extensions to Brooklyn Mall, Kolonnade, Walmer Park, Waterfall Mall and Northgate expected to open for trade from Q3/2013 to Q3/2014 Size of portfolio: Dec 2012 R’million Dec 2011 R’million Net Property Income581521 Portfolio Value13 57812 180 Vacancy:% Total portfolio2.93.6 Top 10 centres1.91.7 Balance of portfolio4.75.2 Arrears:R’million Total24,126,4 Bad debt provision6,94,9 Renewals:% Renewal success rate80.782.4 Renewal rental growth5.07.1

Vacancies increased to 7.1% but significantly outperformed the national average for Q4/2012 of 10.6% New letting totalled 45 588m² and 70 454m² of leases expiring in the first half were renewed. The declining renewal success rate of 65.3% further emphasising the tough market conditions. The renewal growth rate remains under pressure but is now positive, a turnaround from (4.4%) reported last year Arrears have been kept under control through continued proactive credit control, ending the first half at 6.9% of collectables. The bad debt provision increased to R7,1 million due to Government arrears at the end of Dec 2012. These have subsequently been collected The second half will remain challenging with vacancies under pressure. Five new developments and major redevelopments, totalling 36 067m², of which 20 469m² has been let, will be completed before Jun 2013.
