ACQUISITION OF SHARES IN SAFARI INVESTMENTS (RSA) LIMITED


Shareholders are referred to the SENS announcement released on 9 December 2021 detailing the acquisition by
Heriot of 50 078 280 shares in Safari Investments (RSA) Limited ("Safari") and are advised that Heriot,
through Heriot Properties and Heriot Investments, has subsequently acquired an additional 1 003 350 and
801 926 Safari shares respectively, such that Heriot now holds 59 631 631 or 19.2% of Safari ordinary shares in
issue.

Safari is a JSE listed property owning company with a portfolio of retail, office and residential properties, with
the majority of its assets being retail properties in and around Pretoria. The acquisition of additional Safari
shares is in line with Heriot's stated strategy to increase its shareholding in Safari, as Heriot considers Safari's
property portfolio to be complementary to the property portfolio owned by the company, and that such enhanced
shareholding will allow Heriot to expand its real estate investments.

The following profitability metrics are attributable to Safari for the six months ended 30 September 2021:

Distributable earnings per share (cents)                                                                 25.00
Basic earnings per share (cents)                                                                         27.31
Headline earnings per share (cents)                                                                      27.31

The acquisition of Safari shares constitutes, on an aggregated basis, a category 2 acquisition and is therefore not
subject to shareholder approval.
