CIRCULAR TO HOSPITALITY SHAREHOLDERS

1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 As announced on SENS on 15 December 2015, Hospitality has entered into the transaction agreement in terms of which Hospitality will acquire the entire issued share capital of Newco (which will own the Tsogo properties) from the vendor in consideration for the issue to the vendor of a number of Hospitality shares.

1.2 After the implementation of the transaction, the Tsogo group will increase their shareholding in Hospitality from 27.3% to 50.6% of Hospitality’s total issued share capital. The transaction will therefore be categorised as an affected transaction as defined in the Companies Act, which will trigger a mandatory offer by the mandatory offerors to the shareholders of Hospitality other than the vendor, unless the mandatory offerors are exempted from the making of the mandatory offer. The transaction is accordingly subject, amongst others, to the condition precedent that the requirement to make a mandatory offer as set out in paragraph 3.5 below is waived by Hospitality shareholders and dispensed with by the TRP.

1.3 The transaction constitutes a category one acquisition from a related party for Hospitality in terms of the Listings Requirements, requiring the approval of Hospitality shareholders by way of a resolution passed at a general meeting.

1.4 The purpose of this circular is to:

1.4.1 provide Hospitality shareholders with information relating to the transaction and the manner in which it will be implemented, so as to enable shareholders to make an informed decision as to whether or not they should vote in favour of the transaction; and

1.4.2 give notice convening the general meeting at which the resolutions necessary to approve and implement the transaction will be considered and, if deemed fit, approve with or without modification, the resolutions necessary to approve and implement the transaction. The notice convening general meeting of Hospitality shareholders is attached to and forms part of this circular.

Page 14: Hospitality Property Fund Limited€¦ · 7 April 2016, by submitting by e-mail to the company secretary at rosao@hpf.co.za, relevant contact details, including an e-mail address,

12

1.5 It is anticipated that the number of Hospitality shares to be issued pursuant to the implementation of the transaction will increase the total number of Hospitality shares in issue after the implementation of the capital restructure by more than 50%. Accordingly, as required in terms of the Listings Requirements, revised listing particulars have been posted to shareholders together with this circular.

2. RATIONALE FOR THE TRANSACTION

2.1 Following the linked unit conversion, Hospitality currently has a dual-class share capital structure consisting of A shares and B shares. The A shares have a preferential right to net income distributions made by Hospitality, with the B shares having the right to participate only in that portion of Hospitality’s net income distributions that remains following payment of the fixed amount due in respect of the A shares.

2.2 As previously disclosed to Hospitality shareholders (most recently in the integrated annual report 2015), the board is, and has for some time been, of the view that the dual-class share capital structure is not in the best interests of the company and that it has been a major impediment to the effective operation of Hospitality’s business. The board believes that a simplified capital structure will allow Hospitality to deliver more easily on its strategic objectives in the longer term, and the possibility of converting to a single-class share capital structure has therefore been a key focus area for Hospitality in recent years.

2.3 Following engagement with shareholders, indications are now that there is a high level of shareholder support for such a capital restructure insofar as it is implemented in the broader context of the transaction. The transaction therefore presents a mechanism by which Hospitality can achieve the desired restructure of its share capital.

2.4 In addition, the transaction presents a highly attractive acquisition for Hospitality, with the Tsogo portfolio, comprising ten successful and established hotel properties which are well located within their respective nodes. The transaction will contribute to a broadening of Hospitality’s earnings base and should introduce an element of stability to the company’s earnings, through exposure to the relatively predictable cash flows generated by the Tsogo portfolio. As the Tsogo portfolio will be acquired free of any debt, the transaction will also bring about the reduction of Hospitality’s gearing ratio from 3 8.7% as at 30 June 2015 to 28. 2% which, together with Hospitality’s greater scale and inclusion as part of the Tsogo group, is expected to reduce Hospitality’s cost of funding whilst providing the company with access to capital for future opportunities.

2.5 It is also anticipated that the transaction will see Hospitality forming the platform for Tsogo’s strategy of growing a hospitality-focussed REIT. It therefore provides Hospitality with exciting future growth prospects and an attractive pipeline of acquisitions in the medium term, both in terms of Tsogo properties and properties owned by third parties.

2.6 Ultimately, while the capital restructure will in the short-term dilute the net income distributions to holders of A shares, it will result in the long-term sustainability of Hospitality’s business in the best interests of Hospitality shareholders. This, in the board’s view, provides sound and compelling justification for the implementation of the transaction.

3. TERMS OF THE TRANSACTION

3.1 Mechanics of the transaction

3.1.1 In terms of the transaction agreement, Hospitality will acquire from Southern Sun Hotels the entire issued share capital of Newco, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Tsogo, with effect from the effective date.

3.1.2 The purchase consideration will be settled by way of an issue of the consideration shares at the issue price to Southern Sun Hotels.

3.1.3 If the amount of the HPF indebtedness as at the effective date is greater than R1.7 billion, the number of consideration shares to be issued to SSH in exchange for the acquisition of the Tsogo portfolio will be increased proportionately, so as to compensate the vendor for the reduction in the agreed value of the consideration shares as a consequence of the higher than anticipated level of the HPF indebtedness.

3.1.4 Save as set out in paragraph 4 below in relation to the clean-out dividend, the consideration shares will rank pari passu with existing ordinary shares in issue post implementation of the capital restructure, and will be fully paid up and freely transfer able.

3.1.5 The transaction is subject to the fulfilment or waiver of the following outstanding conditions precedent by no later than the long-stop date:

3.1.5.1 all of the conditions precedent to which the capital restructure is subject (save for the condition precedent relating to the transaction agreement becoming unconditional), shall have been fulfilled or waived in accordance with its terms;

Page 15: Hospitality Property Fund Limited€¦ · 7 April 2016, by submitting by e-mail to the company secretary at rosao@hpf.co.za, relevant contact details, including an e-mail address,

13

3.1.5.2 the passing of all resolutions set out in the notice of general meeting attached to this circular, by the requisite majority of shareholders;

3.1.5.3 all applicable regulatory and statutory approvals of the implementation of the transaction shall have been obtained from the Competition Authorities, the JSE and the TRP;

3.1.5.4 the Tsogo properties shall have been registered into the name of Newco, in the appropriate deeds registry; and

3.1.5.5 to the extent necessary, third party consents in relation to the change of control provisions in certain contracts to which Hospitality or companies within the Hospitality group are party shall have been obtained.

3.1.6 Hospitality will, subject to the approval of shareholders at the general meeting, appoint five nominees of SSH to the board of Hospitality with effect from the effective date. This will require that, as part of the capital restructure, the MOI is amended to increase the maximum number of directors of Hospitality from 12 to 15 directors.

3.1.7 Ownership, risk and benefit in and to the entire issued share capital of Newco will pass to Hospitality on the effective date. While ownership, risk and benefit in and to the consideration shares will vest in SSH with effect from the effective date, they will only be issued to SSH on the day following the restructure implementation date, so as to ensure that SSH does not participate in the clean-out dividend in respect of the consideration shares. Assuming that the fulfilment date as defined in this circular occurs during the month of October 2016, the effective date of this transaction will be Tuesday, 1 November 2016.

3.1.8 The transaction agreement contains warranties which are common for transactions of this nature.

3.1.9 Overview of the lease terms

3.1.9.1 The Tsogo properties will be leased from Hospitality (through Newco) by ResHub and managed by SSHI, both of which are indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Tsogo.

3.1.9.2 A Tsogo lease agreement in respect of each of the Tsogo properties has been concluded for an initial period of 20 years with a 10 year renewal option. Each time the lessee exercises its option to extend the lease, a further 10 year renewal option will be applicable. Hospitality’s continued REIT status is dependent on at least 75% of its revenue and gross income comprising rental. Accordingly, the parties to the transaction agreement have agreed that, to the extent that the renewal options bring the classification of the Tsogo lease agreements as operating lease s into question (and hence potentially impacts on the company’s REIT status), they will negotiate in good faith and use their reasonable endeavours to procure that the terms of the Tsogo lease agreements are amended as may be necessary to avoid this outcome.

3.1.9.3 The rentals payable in terms of each of the Tsogo lease agreements comprise a 50% fixed component and an approximately 50% variable component which is calculated as 98% of EBITDAR less the fixed component. The Tsogo lease agreements are subject to additional terms and conditions which are customary for leases of this nature including standard performance conditions.

3.2 Capital restructure

3.2.1 As set out in paragraph 3.1.5.1 above, the transaction remains conditional upon all of the conditions precedent to which the capital restructure is subject, being fulfilled or waived in accordance with its terms. In this regard, the restructure circular , including notices of general meetings at which Hospitality shareholders will consider and, if deemed fit, approve with or without modification, the resolutions necessary to approve and implement the capital restructure, was posted to Hospitality shareholders on 8 March 2016.

3.3 Authorisation in terms of section 41(3) of the Companies Act

As the voting power of the consideration shares will exceed 30% of the voting power of all the shares of that class held by Hospitality shareholders immediately before the issue of the consideration shares pursuant to the transaction, the issue of the consideration shares is required to be approved by a special resolution of Hospitality shareholders in terms of section 41(3) of the Companies Act.

14

3.4 Related party considerations and fairness opinion

3.4.1 As Southern Sun Hotels holds 54. 30% of the B shares (27. 15% of the total voting rights in Hospitality) as at the last practical date, it is regarded as a material shareholder of Hospitality in terms of the Listings Requirements. Consequently, the transaction constitutes a transaction with a related party in terms of section 10.4(f) of the Listings Requirements.

3.4.2 Accordingly, the transaction is subject to approval of Hospitality shareholders. Although Southern Sun Hotels and its associates will be taken into account in determining a quorum at the general meeting, the JSE requires that the resolution must be approved by a majority of Hospitality shareholders, excluding the votes cast by Southern Sun Hotels and its associates.

3.4.3 The board has appointed Mazars to provide an independent opinion on the fairness of the transaction. Mazars concluded that the terms of the transaction are fair to Hospitality shareholders and their report is set out in Annexure 1 of the circular. Subsequent to the last practicable date, Hospitality released its unaudited consolidated interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2015. Having considered such interim results, Mazars has confirmed that they are satisfied that their opinion that the terms of the transaction are fair to Hospitality shareholders remains unchanged.

3.5 Waiver of a mandatory offer to shareholders and intentions of the majority shareholder

3.5.1 Post the implementation of the transaction, Hospitality will be a subsidiary of and controlled by Tsogo. The intention is for the company to house the hospitality and potentially other property interests of the Tsogo group and Tsogo intends to grow the size and value of the combined portfolio through acquisition and development activities. It is intended that Hospitality remain exposed to and contracted with multiple brands and management companies. Tsogo believes that it can add significant value to the company as an anchor shareholder, enhancing the empowerment credentials, financial stability and transaction pipeline of the company.

3.5.2 In terms of section 123 of the Companies Act, the mandatory offerors would be obliged to make a mandatory offer to shareholders of Hospitality other than the vendor at the same price at which the consideration shares were issued (being the issue price) unless the mandatory offer is waived in accordance with regulation 86(4) of the Companies Regulations and dispensed with by the TRP.

3.5.3 The TRP has advised that it is willing to consider the application to grant an exemption from the obligation to make a mandatory offer if the majority of independent shareholders of Hospitality waive their entitlement to receive the mandatory offer from the mandatory offerors, in accordance with regulation 86(4) of the Companies Act Regulations.

3.5.4 The waiver requires a fair and reasonable opinion to be prepared by an independent expert and included in the circular. The fair and reasonable opinion has been prepared by Mazars and is attached as Annexure 2 of the circular. Mazars has concluded that the acquisition of the entire issued share capital of Newco in exchange for the consideration shares is fair and that the waiver of the mandatory offer based on Tsogo’s intention and strategy for Hospitality post the implementation of the transaction is fair and reasonable. Subsequent to the last practicable date, Hospitality released its unaudited consolidated interim results for the six months ended 31 December 2015. Having considered such interim results, Mazars has confirmed that they are satisfied that their opinion that acquisition of the entire issued share capital of Newco in exchange for the consideration shares is fair and that the waiver of the mandatory offer based on Tsogo’s intention and strategy for Hospitality post the implementation of the transaction is fair and reasonable remains unchanged.

3.5.5 Any shareholder of Hospitality who wishes to make representations relating to the exemption shall have 10 business days from the date of the issue of this circular to make such representations to the TRP before the ruling is considered. Representations should be made in writing and delivered by hand, posted or faxed to:If delivered by hand or courier:The Executive Director Takeover Regulation Panel1st floor, Building BSunnyside Office Park32 Princess of Wales Terrace, Parktown, 2193

If posted:The Executive Director Takeover Regulation Panel PO Box 91833 Auckland Park, 2006

If faxed:The Executive Director Takeover Regulation Panel+27 11 642 9284

and should reach the TRP by no later than the close of business on 23 March 2016 in order to be considered.

Page 17: Hospitality Property Fund Limited€¦ · 7 April 2016, by submitting by e-mail to the company secretary at rosao@hpf.co.za, relevant contact details, including an e-mail address,

15

3.5.6 If any representations are made to the TRP within the permitted timeframe, the TRP will consider the merits thereof before making a ruling.

3.5.7 Included in the circular is the notice of general meeting including inter alia the resolution for the waiver of the mandatory offer for shareholders to consider, and if deemed fit, approve at the general meeting.

3.5.8 If the waiver resolution is passed at the general meeting, Hospitality will inform the TRP, together with supporting documents that the requisite resolution has been passed in terms of regulation 86(4) of the Companies Act Regulations.

3.5.9 The TRP will then consider the application for the waiver and make a ruling.

3.5.10 Hospitality will announce the outcome of the ruling on SENS on 13 April 2016 and remind shareholders that they may request the Takeover Special Committee to review the ruling within five business days of the announcement being by 20 April 2016.

3.5.11 After expiry of the five business days’ notice period on 20 April 2016, the TRP waiver proceedings will be regarded as complete if no Hospitality shareholders have requested a review of the TRP ruling.

3.6 Financial year-end

On or as soon as reasonably possible following the restructure implementation date, the board of directors will file the requisite notice of a change in the financial year of the company in terms of section 27(4) of the Companies Act, to change the financial year of the company to 31 March. This is required in order to align the financial year of Hospitality with that of Tsogo.

4. CLEAN-OUT DIVIDEND

4.1 Within three business days of the effective date accounts being finalised, the directors will, subject to the solvency and liquidity requirements of section 46 of the Companies Act, declare a clean-out dividend to those Hospitality shareholders who are registered as such on the record date for participation in the capital restructure of an amount equal to Hospitality’s distributable profit as reflected in the effective date accounts, and pay such clean-out dividend on the restructure implementation date.

4.2 The consideration shares are to be issued “ex” entitlement to the clean-out dividend.

4.3 An announcement containing full details of the clean-out dividend, including the tax treatment and associated timetable for payment thereof, will be released on SENS and published in the press.

5. PROSPECTS

5.1 The performance of the company in the year ahead will largely be driven by the hospitality trading environment. Management expects occupancies to grow in line with domestic GDP growth with room rates increasing slightly ahead of the prevailing CPI rate. Furthermore inflationary pressures on salaries and wages as well as utility costs could impact hotel expenses in 2016. The core properties in Sandton and the Western Cape have been more resilient in the recent downturn and should dampen the impact of any continued downturn. The company will continue to actively pursue the disposal of its remaining non-core properties.

5.2 Hospitality’s underlying performance for the 2016 financial year will be impacted by a renewal of the lease at Champagne Sports Resort. Due to escalations in the fixed rental since 2006 the rental at expiry is significantly higher than market which will result in a reversion of approximately R7 million per annum. Furthermore there will be a requirement to refurbish the hotel in order to maintain market share.

5.3 No known further fixed rental income reversions will occur following the restructure of the Champagne lease.

6. OPINION AND RECOMMENDATION

6.1 The board, following due consideration of inter alia the reports of the independent expert, is of the opinion that the transaction is beneficial to Hospitality and, accordingly, recommends that Hospitality shareholders vote in favour of the resolutions to be proposed at the general meeting.

6.2 Those directors that hold a beneficial interest in Hospitality shares, intend voting in favour of the transaction and all resolutions to be proposed at the general meeting.

10. VALUATION REPORTS

10.1 The Tsogo portfolio was valued by Bryan Nyagah of JHI, who is an independent external registered professional valuer in terms of the Property Valuers Profession Act, No. 47 of 2000.

10.2 Detailed valuation reports have been prepared in respect of each of the properties comprising the Tsogo portfolio and are available for inspection in terms of paragraph 27 of the revised listing particulars. A summary of the detailed valuation reports in respect of the Tsogo portfolio has been included in Annexure 9 of this circular.

11. VENDOR

11.1 The salient details relating to the vendor, are set out in Annexure 10 of this circular.

11.2 The vendor has not guaranteed the book debts or other assets, although it has warranted in terms of the transaction agreement that Newco will, on the effective date, be the sole owner of the Tsogo portfolio. The transaction agreement contains other warranties which are standard for transactions of this nature.

11.3 The transaction agreement does not preclude the vendor from carrying on business in competition with the group nor does the transaction agreement impose any other restrictions on the vendor and therefore no payment in cash or otherwise has been made in this regard.

11.4 There are no liabilities for accrued taxation that are required to be settled in terms of the transaction agreement.

11.5 The shares in Newco are being acquired in return for the issue by Hospitality of the consideration shares. The net asset value of Newco will be R1 779 873 600 (being the value of the Tsogo portfolio as determined by the independent property valuer), such that the value per consideration share being issued is just under R12.28. Based on the clean VWAP at which Hospitality’s shares traded for the five business days preceding the last practical date, and the terms of the capital restructure, the current indicative value of the consideration shares and accordingly the price being paid for the shares in Newco is approximately R10.64 per consideration share, representing a discount of almost 16% to the underlying net asset value of the Tsogo portfolio.

11.6 Other than the directors’ interests as set out in Annexure 3 of the revised listing particulars, no director or promoter of Hospitality (or any partnership, syndicate or other association in which a promoter or director had an interest) has any direct or indirect beneficial interest in the transaction.

11.7 No cash or securities have been paid or any benefit given within the three preceding years this circular or is proposed to be paid or given to any promoter (not being a director).

11.8 The entire issued share capital of Newco to be acquired in terms of the transaction will be transferred into the name of Hospitality as soon as possible after implementation of the transaction and the Tsogo properties have not, to the knowledge of Hospitality, been ceded or pledged to any party.

Annexure 1

FAIRNESS OPINION ISSUED IN TERMS OF THE LISTINGS REQUIREMENTS

“ 4 March  2016The Directors Hospitality Property Fund LimitedThe Zone, Phase 22nd Floor, Loft Offices East WingCorner Oxford Road and Tyrwhitt Avenue Rosebank2196

Dear Sirs,

INDEPENDENT FAIRNESS OPINION IN RESPECT OF THE ACQUISITION BY HOSPITALITY PROPERTY FUND LIMITED (“HOSPITALITY”) OF THE ENTIRE ISSUED SHARE CAPITAL OF FEZISOURCE PROPRIETARY LIMITED (“NEWCO”) FROM SOUTHERN SUN HOTELS PROPRIETARY LIMITED (“SSH”), A RELATED PARTY, IN EXCHANGE FOR HOSPITALITY SHARES (THE TRANSACTION”)

INTRODUCTION

We have been appointed by the Board of Directors (“Board”) to advise the shareholders of Hospitality whether, in our opinion, the Transaction, in terms of which Hospitality will acquire the entire issued share capital of Newco (which will own 10 hotel assets) from SSH, a related party in terms of section 10.4(f) of the JSE Listings Requirements, in exchange for 145 000 000 Hospitality ordinary shares (post the restructure of Hospitality’s share capital to comprise a single class of share only) is fair.

The Transaction qualifies as a Category 1 transaction for Hospitality in terms of section 9 of the JSE Listings Requirements. As SSH currently holds 27.3% of the total issued share capital of Hospitality, it is regarded as a material shareholder of Hospitality in terms of the JSE Listing Requirements.

The Transaction therefore constitutes a transaction with a related party in terms of section 10.4(f) of the JSE Listings Requirements and requires the Board to obtain a fairness opinion from an independent expert, prepared in accordance with Schedule 5 of the JSE Listings Requirements.

EXPLANATION OF THE TERM ‘FAIR’

The term ‘fair’ is defined in Schedule 5 of the JSE Listings Requirements as being based on quantitative issues. Therefore, the Transaction would be considered fair if the fair value of Newco (the sole assets of which will comprise 10 hotel assets (the “Tsogo portfolio”), which have been valued by an independent property valuer) is equal to or greater than the fair value of Hospitality shares to be issued to SSH (“the consideration”).

ASSUMPTIONS

We arrived at our opinion based on the following assumptions:• Current economic, regulatory and market conditions will not change materially. This included an analysis of publically

available information relating to the forecast market outlook;• That reliance can be placed on the audited annual financial statements of Hospitality for the years ended 30 June 2014

and 30 June 2015 during the course of this assignment; • That reliance can be placed on the forecast information of Hospitality for the years ending 30 June 2016 to 30 June 2020,

as prepared by the management of Hospitality;• That reliance can be placed on the independent property valuation reports in respect of the fair market value of Hospitality’s

hotel assets, as prepared by Gensec Property Services Limited (“JHI”); and• That reliance can be placed on the independent property valuation report in respect of the fair market value of the Tsogo

portfolio, as prepared by JHI.

24

Where relevant, representations made by management and/or directors were corroborated to source documents prepared by third parties, independent analytical procedures performed by us and by examining and analysing external factors that influence the business. This included an analysis of the forecast financial information against that of the audited annual financial statements for reasonability.

SOURCES OF INFORMATION

In the course of our analysis, we relied upon financial and other information, including financial information obtained from management together with industry related and other information available in the public domain. Our conclusion is dependent on such information being accurate in all material respects.

The principal sources of information used in formulating our opinion regarding the Transaction include:• Audited financial statements of Hospitality for the years ended 30 June 2014 and 30 June 2015;• The forecast information of Hospitality for the years ending 30 June 2016 to 30 June 2020, as prepared by the management

of Hospitality;• The independent property valuation reports in respect of the fair market value of Hospitality’s hotel assets;• The independent property valuation report in respect of the fair market value of the Tsogo portfolio. These valuations take

into account the prevailing economic conditions in the real estate investment trusts industry. The report complies with the requirements of the JSE Listings Requirements;

• A review of the qualifications of the independent valuer, JHI, which has performed valuations of Hospitality’s hotel assets and the Tsogo portfolio. We confirm that we are satisfied with the basis of the technical valuation as well as the market value approach and have relied on these valuations for the purpose of performing the valuation of the Tsogo portfolio;

• Information and assumptions made available by and from discussions held with executive directors of Hospitality and representatives of SSH in terms of the rationale for the Transaction;

• The circular to Hospitality shareholders relating to the Transaction (the “Circular”); and• Publicly available information relating to Hospitality and other competitors in the real estate investment trusts industry

that we deemed to be relevant, including company announcements.

We obtained the information through: • Conducting interviews with management, directors and senior staff members;• Obtaining corroborating evidence from third parties; and• Extracting information from the internet and the press.

We satisfied ourselves as to the appropriateness and reasonableness of the information with reference to: • Audited financial statements of Hospitality for the years ended 30 June 2014 and 30 June 2015; • The forecast information of Hospitality for the years ending 30 June 2016 to 30 June 2020, as prepared by the management

of Hospitality;• Conducting analytical reviews on the financial statements and forecast financial information; • The independent property valuation reports in respect of the fair market value of Hospitality’s hotel assets;• The independent property valuation report in respect of the fair market value of the Tsogo portfolio;• Understanding the industry in which Hospitality operates; and• Assessing whether replies from management on certain issues were corroborated by third parties and documentary

evidence.

LIMITING CONDITIONS AND RELATED PARTY RELATIONSHIPS

We have relied upon the accuracy of information provided to us or otherwise reviewed by us, for the purposes of this opinion, whether in writing or obtained through discussion with the management of Hospitality. We express no opinion on this information.

There were no limiting conditions, or any restrictions of scope imposed by the client whilst this opinion was being prepared.

Our opinion is based on current economic, regulatory, market as well as other conditions. Subsequent developments may affect this opinion, which we are under no obligation to update, review or re-affirm.

This letter and opinion is provided solely for the benefit of the shareholders of Hospitality in connection with and for the purposes of their consideration of the Transaction.

There is no relationship between Mazars Corporate Finance (Pty) Ltd (“MCF”) and any other parties involved in this Transaction. MCF has no shares in Hospitality or any other party involved in the Transaction. MCF’s fees in respect of this opinion is not payable in Hospitality shares and is not contingent or related to the outcome of the Transaction.

Each shareholder’s individual decision may be influenced by such shareholder’s particular circumstances and accordingly each shareholder should consult an independent advisor if in any doubt as to the merits or otherwise of the Transaction.

PROCEDURES

In order to assess the fairness of the terms and conditions relating to the Transaction, we have performed, amongst others, the following procedures:• Reviewed the independent valuation report in respect of the fair market value of the Tsogo portfolio;• Reviewed the terms and conditions of the Transaction;• Considered information made available by and from discussions held with the executive directors and management of

Hospitality, as well as representatives of SSH;• Considered the rationale for the Transaction, from the perspective of both Hospitality and SSH; • Reviewed the audited annual financial statements of Hospitality for the years ended 30 June 2014 and 30 June 2015; • Reviewed the forecast information of Hospitality for the years ending 30 June 2016 to 30 June 2020, as prepared by the

management of Hospitality;• Reviewed the independent valuation reports in respect of the fair market value of Hospitality’s hotel assets;• Reviewed the Circular; • Reviewed general economic, market and related conditions in which Hospitality operates; • Reviewed the methodologies available for performing valuations of businesses operating in the real estate investment

trusts industry;• Performed an indicative valuation of Hospitality using the discounted cash flow (“DCF methodology”) considering the

fair values of other assets and liabilities as at 30 June 2015;• Compared the fair value of Newco to the purchase consideration of 145 000 000 Hospitality shares (post the restructure

of Hospitality’s share capital to comprise a single class of share only);• Reviewed general economic, market and related conditions in which Hospitality operates; and• Conducted appropriate sensitivity analyses given a reasonable range of key assumptions on the valuation above.

We believe the above procedures commercially justify the conclusion outlined below.

CONFIRMATION OF PERFORMANCE OF VALUATION AND VALUATION METHODOLOGY

We confirm that we have performed a valuation of Hospitality utilising the DCF methodology as a primary basis.

The valuation was performed taking cognisance of Hospitality’s current and planned operations as well as other market factors affecting these operations. Using the values derived from the above valuation, a comparison was made to the consideration paid (by way of the issue of Hospitality shares).

Based on discussion with management, along with research into the sector, the following key value drivers were assessed for the DCF valuation:

Internal:• Revenue growth rates; • Profit margins to be achieved through the forecast period; • The discount rate applicable to Hospitality;• Forecast working capital assumptions; • Forecast free cash flows; and• Forecast capital expenditure requirements.

Page 28: Hospitality Property Fund Limited€¦ · 7 April 2016, by submitting by e-mail to the company secretary at rosao@hpf.co.za, relevant contact details, including an e-mail address,

26

External:• Stability of the economy and other macroeconomic factors. This included an analysis of publically available information

in respect of macroeconomic outlook; • Performed sensitivity analyses on the long term and inflation rate assumed at 5% and assessed the impact thereof on the

valuation; and• Interest rates with Hospitality’s historical lending rate being 9.45%.

The following analyses were performed on the key value drivers:• An analysis and review of the forecast revenue growth rates. This included sensitivity analyses performed on the forecast

revenue by increasing and decreasing revenue by 10% and the impact thereof on the valuation; and• An analysis and review of the forecast profit margins. This included a sensitivity analysis performed on the forecast

earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisation (“EBITDA”) margins by increasing and decreasing the EBITDA margins by 1% and 2% respectively and assessed the impact thereof on the valuation.

The indicative consideration paid to SSH for the entire share capital of Newco ranges between R1  316  000  000 and R1 632 000 000. The fair value of the shares in Newco to be received by Hospitality amounts to R1 779 873 000 exceeding this range, and the Transaction is therefore considered to be fair to the shareholders of Hospitality.

Our procedures and enquiries did not constitute an audit in terms of International Standards on Auditing. Accordingly, we cannot express any opinion on the financial data or other information used in arriving at our opinion.

OPINION

Our opinion is based upon the market, regulatory and trading conditions as they currently exist and can only be evaluated at the date of this letter. It should be understood that subsequent developments may affect our opinion, which we are under no obligation to update, revise or re-affirm.

We have considered the terms and conditions of the Transaction, and subject to the aforegoing, we are of the opinion that the Transaction is fair to the shareholders of Hospitality in terms of the JSE Listings Requirements.

CONSENT

We hereby consent to the inclusion of this letter and references thereto, in the form and context in which they appear in any required regulatory announcement or document.

Yours faithfully

Annexure 2

FAIR AND REASONABLE OPINION ISSUED IN TERMS OF THE COMPANIES ACT

“ 4 March 2016The Directors Hospitality Property Fund LimitedThe Zone, Phase 22nd Floor, Loft Offices East WingCorner Oxford Road and Tyrwhitt Avenue Rosebank2196

Dear Sirs,

INDEPENDENT FAIR AND REASONABLE OPINION IN RESPECT OF THE WAIVER BY HOSPITALITY PROPERTY FUND LIMITED (“HOSPITALITY”) SHAREHOLDERS OF THE MANDATORY OFFER TRIGGERED BY THE ACQUISITION BY HOSPITALITY OF THE ENTIRE ISSUED SHARE CAPITAL OF FEZISOURCE PROPRIETARY LIMITED (“NEWCO”) FROM SOUTHERN SUN HOTELS PROPRIETARY LIMITED (“SSH”), IN EXCHANGE FOR HOSPITALITY SHARES (“THE TRANSACTION”)

INTRODUCTION

We have been appointed by the Board of Directors (“Board”) to advise the shareholders of Hospitality whether, in our opinion, the waiver in terms of Regulation 86(4) of the Companies Act Regulations, 2011 by the majority of the independent shareholders of Hospitality of their entitlement to receive a mandatory offer from SSH and Tsogo Sun Holdings Limited (“TSH”) (the “mandatory offerors”) in terms of section 123 of the Companies Act 71 of 2008 (the “Act”) (the “waiver of mandatory offer”), is fair and reasonable.

After the implementation of the Transaction, SSH will increase its interest in Hospitality from 27.3% to 50.6% of Hospitality’s total issued share capital. The Transaction is therefore categorised as an affected Transaction as defined in the Act, triggering a mandatory offer by the mandatory offerors to the other shareholders of Hospitality (the “mandatory offer”).

EXPLANATION OF THE TERM ‘FAIR’ AND ‘REASONABLE’

Fair

The term ‘fair’ is defined in Schedule 5 of the Listings Requirements as being based on quantitative issues. Therefore, the waiver of mandatory offer would be considered fair if the fair value per Hospitality share post Transaction (given that the mandatory offer is waived by shareholders) is equal to or greater than the fair value per Hospitality share prior to the Transaction.

Reasonable

The term ‘reasonable’ is generally based on qualitative considerations surrounding the waiver of mandatory offer. Hence, the waiver of the mandatory offer may be considered reasonable, even if fair value per Hospitality share post Transaction (given that the mandatory offer is waived by shareholder) is less than the fair value per Hospitality share prior to the Transaction.

SOURCES OF INFORMATION

In the course of our analysis, we relied upon financial and other information, including financial information obtained from management together with industry related and other information available in the public domain. Our conclusion is dependent on such information being accurate in all material respects.

The principle sources of information used in formulating our opinion regarding the waiver of mandatory offer include:• Audited financial statements of Hospitality for the years ended 30 June 2014 and 30 June 2015;• The forecast information of Hospitality for the years ending 30 June 2016 to 30 June 2020, as prepared by the management

of Hospitality;• The independent property valuation reports in respect of the fair market value of Hospitality’s hotel assets;• The independent property valuation report in respect of the fair market value of the Tsogo portfolio. These valuations take

into account the prevailing economic conditions in the real estate investment trusts industry;

• A review of the qualifications of the independent valuator, Gensec Property Services Limited (“JHI”), which has performed valuations of Hospitality’s hotel assets and the Tsogo portfolio. We confirm that we are satisfied with the basis of the technical valuation as well as the market value approach and have relied on these valuations for the purpose of performing the valuation of the Tsogo portfolio;

• Information and assumptions made available by and from discussions held with both the executive directors of Hospitality and representatives of TSH in terms of the rationale for the Transaction;

• The circular to Hospitality shareholders relating, inter alia, to the waiver of mandatory offer (the “Circular”); and• Publicly available information relating to Hospitality and other competitors that we deemed to be relevant, including

company announcements.

We obtained the information through: • Conducting interviews with management, directors and senior staff members;• Obtaining corroborating evidence from third parties; and• Extracting information from the internet and the press.

PROCEDURES

In arriving at our opinion, we have undertaken the following principle procedures in evaluating the fairness of the waiver of mandatory offer:• Reviewed the independent valuation report in respect to the fair market value of the Tsogo portfolio;• Reviewed the terms and conditions of the Transaction;• Considered information made available by and from discussions held with the independent executive directors and

management of Hospitality;• Reviewed the audited annual financial statements of Hospitality for the years ended 30 June 2014 and 30 June 2015; • Reviewed the forecast information of Hospitality post acquisition for the years ending 30 June 2016 to 30 June 2020, as

prepared by the management of Hospitality;• Reviewed the independent valuation reports in respect of the fair market value of Hospitality’s hotel assets;• Reviewed the Circular; • Reviewed general economic, market and related conditions in which Hospitality operates; • Reviewed the methodologies available for performing valuations of businesses operating in the real estate investment

trusts industry;• Performed an indicative valuation of Hospitality shares using the discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology considering

the acquired assets as at 30 June 2015;• Compared the fair value per Hospitality share (if the mandatory offer is waived) to the current fair value per Hospitality

share;• Reviewed general economic, market and related conditions in which Hospitality operates; and• Conducted appropriate sensitivity analyses given a reasonable range of key assumptions on the valuation above.In arriving at our opinion, we have considered, in addition to the procedures performed above, the following key qualitative considerations in assessing the reasonableness of the waiver of mandatory offer:• Considered the rationale for the Transaction, from the perspective of both Hospitality and the Tsogo group; • Considered the prospects of Hospitality and whether the Transaction will be beneficial to both Hospitality and its

shareholders;• The financial position of Hospitality; and • The general state of the economy and the impact this will have on current and future industry and company specific

performance.

We believe the above procedures commercially justify the conclusion outlined below.

VALUATION

We have performed valuations to derive the fair value per Hospitality share prior to the Transaction and the fair value per Hospitality share post Transaction. The fair value per Hospitality share has been calculated based on the assumption that Hospitality’s current shareholders vote in favour of the restructure of Hospitality’s share capital, in terms of which Hospitality’s existing dual-class share capital structure will be converted to a single-class share capital structure, such that Hospitality has only ordinary shares in issue. The DCF methodology was utilised to derive the fair value per Hospitality ordinary share.

Page 31: Hospitality Property Fund Limited€¦ · 7 April 2016, by submitting by e-mail to the company secretary at rosao@hpf.co.za, relevant contact details, including an e-mail address,

29

Key material assumptions to the DCF models included Hospitality’s forecast cashflows for the years ending 30 June 2016 to 30 June 2020 for both Hospitality’s current operations and Hospitality’s anticipated operations post Transaction. We have considered the post Transaction synergies which would arise as well as the additional properties.

Additionally, sensitivity analyses were performed considering key assumptions in arriving at the valuation range set out below.

The outcome of the valuation of Hospitality shares prior to the Transaction resulted in an indicative valuation range of between 907 cents and 1 126 cents per share, with a core value of 1 010 cents dissecting this range.

The outcome of the valuation per Hospitality share given that the waiver of the mandatory offer is accepted by shareholders resulted in an indicative valuation range of between 1 012 cents and 1 205 cents, with a core value of 1 102 cents dissecting this range.

The waiver of the mandatory offer would accordingly be considered fair to Hospitality shareholders due to the fact that the fair value per Hospitality share post Transaction is greater than the fair value per Hospitality share prior to the Transaction.

LIMITING CONDITIONS AND RELATED PARTY RELATIONSHIPS

We have relied upon the accuracy of information provided to us or otherwise reviewed by us, for the purposes of this opinion, whether in writing or obtained through discussion with the management of Hospitality. We express no opinion on this information.

There were no limiting conditions, or any restrictions of scope imposed by the client whilst this opinion was being prepared.

Our opinion is based on current economic, regulatory, market as well as other conditions. Subsequent developments may affect this opinion, which we are under no obligation to update, review or re-affirm.

This letter and opinion is provided solely for the benefit of the shareholders of Hospitality in connection with and for the purposes of their consideration of the waiver of mandatory offer.

There is no relationship between Mazars Corporate Finance (Pty) Ltd (“MCF”) and any other parties involved in this Transaction. MCF has no shares in Hospitality or any other party involved in the Transaction. MCF’s fees in respect of this opinion is R150 000 plus VAT and is not payable in Hospitality shares and is not contingent or related to the outcome of the Transaction and/or the waiver of mandatory offer.

Each shareholder’s individual decision may be influenced by such shareholder’s particular circumstances and accordingly each shareholder should consult an independent advisor if in any doubt as to the merits or otherwise of the Transaction and/or waiver of mandatory offer.

OPINION

The waiver of mandatory offer is fair to Hospitality shareholders due to the fact that the fair value per Hospitality share post Transaction is greater than the fair value per Hospitality share prior to the Transaction.

The waiver of mandatory offer is reasonable based on the stated intention and strategy for Hospitality post the Transaction, as provided by representatives of the Tsogo group, being to house its hospitality and other property interests and to grow the size and value of the combined portfolio through acquisition and development activities. The Tsogo group does not intend to fundamentally alter the nature of Hospitality, but seeks to improve on empowerment credentials, financial stability and the Transaction pipeline of the Fund.

Based upon and subject to the aforegoing, we are of the opinion that the waiver of mandatory offer is fair and reasonable to the shareholders.

CONSENT

We hereby consent to the inclusion of this letter and references thereto, in the form and context in which they appear in any required regulatory announcement or document.

lease agreements.• There are no items of expenditure forecasted to increase by greater than 15% from historical rates.• The properties known as Garden Court South Beach and Garden Court O.R. Tambo are the only material properties, being a

property constituting 15% or more of the value or revenue of the Tsogo portfolio.10. The forecast prepared does not include costs related to the transaction.

INDEPENDENT REPORTING ACCOUNTANTS’ LIMITED ASSURANCE REPORT ON THE FORECAST STATEMENTS OF COMPREHENSIVE INCOME OF NEWCO

“The DirectorsHospitality Property Fund LimitedThe Zone IILofts Offices East Wing2nd floor, Cnr Oxford road & Tyrwhitt Avenue RosebankJohannesburg2196

4 March 2016

Dear Sirs

Independent reporting accountants’ assurance report on the forecast statement of comprehensive income information relating to Newco

We have examined the forecast statement of comprehensive income and the related assumptions of Newco for the two years ending 30 June 2017 (collectively, “the forecast information”), amounting to an attributable net profit before tax of R263  million and R430 million respectively as set out in the Circular.

This report and the conclusion contained herein is provided solely for the benefit of the board of directors and shareholders of Hospitality.

Directors’ responsibility

The directors of Hospitality and Tsogo are responsible for the forecast information, including the assumptions, on which it is based, and for the financial information from which it has been prepared. This responsibility, arising from compliance with the Listings Requirements, includes:• determining whether the assumptions, barring unforeseen circumstances, provide a reasonable basis for the preparation

of the forecast information;• whether the forecast information has been properly compiled on the basis stated; and• whether the forecast information is presented on a basis consistent with the accounting policies of Hospitality.

Reporting accountants’ responsibility

Our responsibility is to provide a limited assurance report on the forecast information prepared for the purpose of complying with the Listings Requirements and for inclusion in the Circular. We conducted our assurance engagement in accordance with the International Standard on Assurance Engagements applicable to the Examination of Prospective Financial Information and the SAICA circular entitled the Independent reporting Accountants responsibilities in terms of Section 13 of the Listing Requirements.

This standard requires us to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence as to whether:• management’s best-estimate assumptions on which the forecasts are based are not unreasonable and are consistent with

the purpose of the information;• the forecast information is properly prepared on the basis of the assumptions;• the forecast information is properly presented and all material assumptions are adequately disclosed; and• the forecast information is prepared and presented on a basis consistent with the accounting policies of Hospitality.

In a limited assurance engagement, the evidence gathering procedures are more limited than for a reasonable assurance engagement and therefore, less assurance is obtained than in a reasonable assurance engagement. We believe our evidence obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our limited assurance conclusion.

33

Information and sources of information

In arriving at our conclusion, we have relied upon forecast financial information prepared by the management of Hospitality and Tsogo and other information from various public, financial and industry sources.

The principal sources of information used in arriving at our conclusion are as follows:• the management accounts of the underlying properties for the last two years; • management prepared forecasts for the two years ending 30 June 2017;• discussions with management of Hospitality and Tsogo regarding the forecasts presented;• discussions with management of Hospitality and Tsogo regarding the prevailing market and economic conditions; and• lease agreements of the properties held under such leases;

Procedures

In arriving at our conclusion we have performed the following procedures:

Rental income

Rental income – Fixed and variable • For the forecast variable and fixed rental streams, as contained in the profit forecast model, we compared the forecast

income streams to the individual property historical income statements and enquired of management of Hospitality and Tsogo where large discrepancies were noted. Variable and fixed rental income is based on individual hotel performance and largely comprises 98% of EBITDA less fixed component. The fixed component resets intermittently on a two or three year cycle.

• The total coverage obtained was 100% of the forecast contracted rental income. • The forecast does not assume any uncontracted rental income.• We obtained industry comparatives of occupancy rates and room rates for reasonableness and explanations were obtained

for significant variances.

Expenses

All lease agreements are triple net leases. These lease agreements are those in terms of which the tenants are responsible for all of the operating and other costs relating to the building including insurance and repairs and maintenance. As a result, no recoveries have been forecast.

Operating expenses

The forecast operating expenses were assessed for reasonableness and, where applicable, recalculated.

Material expenditure items

The detailed forecast expenditure was examined to ensure that all material expenditure items, as required by paragraph 13.14(f) of the Listings Requirements, were disclosed. Variances of 15% as required by 13.14(g) or more between historical and forecast expenditure for each material items were obtained.

Application of accounting policies

We ascertained that the accounting policies, to be applied by Hospitality in the future were applied consistently in arriving at forecast income. Variances and principles were primarily discussed with the directors of Hospitality.

Model review

In order to ensure that the forecast model for the property income and expenses was accurate and reliable we performed a high level review to determine the consistency and mathematical accuracy of the model.

Lease expiry profile

The properties will be leased to a single tenant for a certain lease period. We agreed the dates of expiry of the individual leases reflected in the individual property model to the valuation reports and found them to be in agreement.

Accuracy of the information

We have relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of the information provided to us in writing, or obtained through discussions with the management of Hospitality and Tsogo. While our work has involved an analysis of the historical financial information and other information provided to us, our engagement does not constitute, nor does it include, an audit conducted in accordance with International Auditing Standards. Accordingly, we assume no responsibility and make no representations with respect to the accuracy or completeness of any information provided to us.

Conclusion

Based on our examination of the evidence obtained, nothing has come to our attention which causes us to believe that: • the assumptions, barring unforeseen circumstances, do not provide a reasonable basis for the preparation of the forecast

information;• the forecast information has not been properly compiled on the basis stated;• the profit forecast has not been properly presented and all material assumptions are not adequately disclosed; and• the forecast information is not presented on a basis consistent with the accounting policies of Hospitality.

Actual results are likely to be different from the forecast since anticipated events frequently do not occur as expected and the variation may be material. Accordingly no assurance is expressed regarding the achievability of the forecast.

INDEPENDENT REPORTING ACCOUNTANTS’ ASSURANCE REPORT ON THE PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION OF HOSPITALITY

“The DirectorsHospitality Property Fund LimitedThe Zone IILofts Offices East Wing2nd floor, Cnr Oxford road & Tyrwhitt Avenue RosebankJohannesburg2196

4 March 2016

Report on the Compilation of Pro Forma Financial Information

We have completed our assurance engagement to report (“Report”) on the compilation of pro forma net asset value per share of Hospitality Property Fund Limited (“Hospitality or the Company”), pro forma statement of financial position of Hospitality and the related notes, including a reconciliation showing all of the pro forma adjustments to the share capital, reserves and other equity items relating to Hospitality, (collectively “Pro forma Financial Information”). The Pro forma Financial Information is set out in the Salient Features, paragraph 8 and Annexure 5 of the Circular to be issued by the Company on or about 8 March 2016.

The Pro forma Financial Information has been compiled by the directors of Hospitality to illustrate the impact of the acquisition by Hospitality of the entire issued share capital of Newco which will own the hotel properties comprising the Tsogo portfolio, in exchange for consideration shares, resulting in an affected transaction as defined in the Companies Act, triggering a mandatory offer to all other shareholders; and a waiver of the mandatory offer by shareholders (“Transaction”) as detailed in the Circular to Hospitality Shareholders on the Company’s financial position and changes in equity as at 30 June 2015.

As part of this process, the Company’s statement of financial position has been extracted by the directors from the Company’s published financial statements for the period ended 30 June 2015 (“Published Financial Information”), on which an audit report has been published. In addition, the directors have calculated the net asset value per share as at 30 June 2015 based on financial information extracted from the Published Financial Information.

Directors’ Responsibility for the Pro forma Financial Information

The directors of Hospitality are responsible for compiling the Pro forma Financial Information on the basis of the applicable criteria as detailed in paragraphs 8.15 to 8.33 of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited and the SAICA Guide on Pro forma Financial Information, revised and issued in September 2014 (“Applicable Criteria”).

Reporting Accountants’ responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion about whether the Pro forma Financial Information has been compiled, in all material respects, by the directors on the basis of the Applicable Criteria, based on our procedures performed.

We conducted our engagement in accordance with International Standard on Assurance Engagements (ISAE) 3420, Assurance Engagements to Report on the Compilation of Pro Forma Financial Information Included in a Prospectus, issued by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board. This standard requires that the reporting accountants’ comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform procedures to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the directors have compiled, in all material respects, the Pro forma Financial Information on the basis of the Applicable Criteria.

For purposes of this engagement, we are not responsible for updating or reissuing any reports or opinions on any Published Financial Information used in compiling the Pro forma Financial Information, nor have we, in the course of this engagement, performed an audit or review of the Published Financial Information used in compiling the Pro forma Financial Information.

Page 40: Hospitality Property Fund Limited€¦ · 7 April 2016, by submitting by e-mail to the company secretary at rosao@hpf.co.za, relevant contact details, including an e-mail address,

38

The purpose of Pro forma Financial Information included in the Circular is solely to illustrate the impact of the Transaction on the unadjusted Published Financial Information as if the Transaction had been undertaken on 30 June 2015 for purposes of the net asset value per share and statement of financial position. Accordingly, we do not provide any assurance that the actual outcome of the Transaction, subsequent to its implementation, will be as presented in the Pro forma Financial Information.

A reasonable assurance engagement to report on whether the Pro forma Financial Information has been properly compiled, in all material respects, on the basis of the Applicable Criteria involves performing procedures to assess whether the Applicable Criteria used by the directors in the compilation of the Pro forma Financial Information provide a reasonable basis for presenting the significant effects directly attributable to the Transaction and to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence about whether:• The related pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to the Applicable Criteria; and• The Pro forma Financial Information reflects the proper application of those pro forma adjustments to the unadjusted

Published Financial Information.

The procedures selected depend on the reporting accountant’s judgment, having regard to the reporting accountant’s understanding of the nature of the Company, the Transaction in respect of which the Pro forma Financial Information has been compiled and other relevant engagement circumstances.

The engagement also involves evaluating the overall presentation of the Pro forma Financial Information.

We believe that the evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Opinion

In our opinion, the Pro forma Financial Information has been compiled, in all material respects, on the basis of the Applicable Criteria specified by the JSE Listings Requirements.

A review of the existence and value of Properties to be acquired by Hospitality consists of making enquiries, primarily of persons responsible for the financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

We have also considered the guidance in ISA 620 ‘Using the work of an expert’ in respect of the valuations provided by the independent registered ‘property’ valuer (the “independent valuer”) in accordance with paragraphs 13.20 to 13.31 of the JSE Listings Requirements.

Summary of work performed

Existence and valuation of the property portfolio

Our procedures included making such inquires and obtaining such representations from the directors as we considered necessary, and in addition we:• examined the title search included in the independent valuation report for the Properties;• compared the values at which the Properties are being acquired as reflected in the pro forma statement of financial position

to the valuation included in Annexure 5 of the Circular;• considered the valuation provided by the independent valuer in accordance with the guidance in ISA 620: Using the work

of an expert and obtained evidence of the following:– the professional competence of the independent valuer, in particular, membership of an appropriate professional body

and experience and reputation in the field; – the independence of the independent valuer, including confirmation from the valuer that there were no actual or

apparent conflicts of interest that might impair, or be perceived to impair, his or her objectivity;– that the scope of the independent valuer’s work was adequate for the purposes of determining the property values

included in the pro forma statement of financial position; and– the appropriateness of the independent valuer’s work as audit evidence regarding the values at which the properties are

reflected in the pro forma statement of financial position.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that:• Properties does not exist; • the value at which the acquisition of the Properties is reflected in the pro forma statement of financial position is not,

in all material respects, in accordance with the accounting policies adopted by Hospitality and the recognition and measurement criteria of IFRS; and

• no liabilities other than those disclosed exist.

Annexure 9

INDEPENDENT PROPERTY VALUATION OF THE TSOGO PORTFOLIO

“ 4 March  2016The Directors,Hospitality Property Fund Limited,The Zone II, Lofts Offices East Wing,2nd floor, Cnr Oxford Road & Tyrwhitt Avenue,Rosebank, 2196.Johannesburg.

Dear Sirs

RE: INDEPENDENT PROPERTY VALUERS’ REPORT OF THE PROPERTIES TO BE ACQUIRED BY HOSPITALITY PROPERTY FUND LIMITED AS DETAILED IN THE SUMMARY SCHEDULE ATTACHED AND FOR WHICH THERE ARE DETAILED VALUATION REPORTS HELD BY HOSPITALITY PROPERTY FUND LIMITED.

In accordance with your instructions of the 15th of October 2015, I confirm that I have visited and inspected the 10 properties listed in the attached schedule (“the properties”) during the month of October 2015 and have received all necessary details required to perform valuations in order to provide you with my opinion of the properties’ market values as at 30 September  2015.

1. INTRODUCTION

The valuation of the properties has been carried out by the valuer who has carefully considered all aspects of all the properties. These properties each have a detailed valuation report which has been given to the management of Hospitality Property Fund Limited. The detailed reports include commentary on the current economy, nature of the properties, locality, risk profile, earning capability and exposure to future expenses and property risk. All these aspects have been considered in the individual valuation reports of the properties. The detailed reports have further addressed the revenue capability and expenditure for each property. Historic expenditure profile as well as future expenditure increases have been considered. The value thus indicates the fair market value for each property which is detailed in the detailed report and which has been summarised on a summary schedule, attached hereto, for each property. There are 10 (ten) properties, and the important aspects of the detailed valuation reports including the property market value for all of the properties have been summarised in the attached schedule.

2. BASIS OF VALUATION

The valuation is based on market value.

Market value means the best price, at which the sale of an interest in a property may reasonably be expected to have been completed, unconditionally for a cash consideration on the date of valuation, assuming:

2.1 a willing seller and a willing buyer in a market;

2.2 that, prior to the date of valuation, there had been a reasonable period (having regard to the nature of the property and the state of the market) for the proper marketing of the property, for the agreement of price and terms and for the completion of the sale; and

2.3 that the state of the market, level of values and other circumstances are, on any earlier assumed date of exchange of contracts, the same as on the date of the valuation.

3. VALUE CALCULATION

The calculation of the market value of these properties has been based on the Discounted Cash Flow Method. The discounted cash-flow approach is based on the principle that the value of a property is indicated by its net return, or what is known as the “present worth of future benefits.” The future benefits of income-producing properties, such as hotels, are the net income estimated by a forecast of income and expense along with the anticipated proceeds from a future sale. These benefits can be converted into an indication of market value through a capitalization process and discounted cash flow analysis.

Page 45: Hospitality Property Fund Limited€¦ · 7 April 2016, by submitting by e-mail to the company secretary at rosao@hpf.co.za, relevant contact details, including an e-mail address,

43

The forecast of income and expense is expressed in nominal terms in this case for a period of five years for each property. The projected income and expenses are intended to reflect the anticipated operating results of the property over its remaining economic life. Thus, projected income and expense estimates exclude from consideration any abnormal relationship between supply and demand, as well as any non-recurring conditions that may result in unusual revenues or expenses.

In concluding our market valuations we have taken the following into consideration:

3.1 Whether the hotel has a stabilised trading base/history.

3.2 Whether the property has recently undergone a comprehensive refurbishment to improve product quality which should result in increased performance.

3.3 Proposed or planned capital expenditure in the property to enhance performance of the hotel.

3.4 A change in supply dynamics in the local area; either in the closing and or opening of new hotels in the area.

3.5 A change in demand dynamics in the area; like new companies opening in the area and changes in road networks and transport links.

3.6 Any envisaged changes in the cost structure to improve operational efficiencies; for example need to employ new staff or a change in kitchen equipment leading to operational savings.

3.7 The income stream from each hotel will be derived from either a fixed lease, a variable lease, or a C-Corp lease agreement (C-Corp lease refers to a close corporation lease, usually used for tax strategy purposes whereby related companies lease property to each other i.e. lessor owns lessee company). Our valuation takes into account the contractual income for the initial term and it is assumed in each case that the leases will been renewed.

3.8 Projected revenue to Hospitality Property Fund Limited will be in the form of a fixed rental with agreed escalations; and an additional variable rental based on EBIDTA (Earnings Before Interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisation).

3.9 The current occupancy as a percentage of the hotel portfolio is approximately 67.4%. Occupancy levels used in the valuations are property specific and have been deduced from historic trading data. The occupancy levels are market related. The occupancy provisions used in the valuations are therefore adequate.

3.10 There is no loss of rental due to renovations or refurbishments currently being carried out on the buildings. There is however ongoing renovations in some of the hotels. There is no loss of rental as result of these activities.

3.11 Generally the rentals are market related. The rental rates have been checked against rentals charged against similar properties. There are no properties that are over-rented or that cannot be re-rented at the same rental. The variable portion of the rental is based on the projected Earnings Before Interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisation). We have assumed a general inflation based growth rate for EBIDTA and no major economic fluctuations which may upset the economy.

4. SPARE LAND

There are no properties with large tracts of vacant zoned and serviced spare land.

5. BRIEF DESCRIPTION

These are 10 (ten) hotel properties located in various urban centres in South Africa. Most of the properties are multi-storey. All the properties are located within South Africa.

The properties have been very well constructed; have good architectural merit, aesthetic appeal and sufficient parking facilities. They generally provide 3 and 4 Star quality hotel accommodation offering well known trusted market leaders in the full service through to select service and budget segments, including Southern Sun, Garden Court, Sun Square and Stay Easy Hotels. The subject portfolio offers well established hotel brands.

6. VALUATION QUALIFICATIONS

Qualifications are usually detailed as a consequence of leases under negotiation that have not yet been formalised; leases of a large nature where the premises are difficult to re-let; specialised properties; large exposure to a single tenant; potential tenant failure due to over-rent; expenses required for major repairs; maintenance or other exposure to maintain the lettability of the building; contingent expropriations or servitudes that may be enforced; and poor lease recordals whereby the lease may be disputed or rendered invalid.

I have, to the best of my knowledge, considered all of these aspects in the valuation of all the properties. There are no properties that are prejudiced in value by the influence of the above factors.

The valuer is however not responsible for the competent daily management of these properties that will ensure that this status is maintained, or for the change of any laws, services by local authority or economic circumstances that may adversely impact on the integrity of the buildings or the tenant profile.

7. OPTIONS OR BENEFIT / DETRIMENT OF CONTRACTUAL ARRANGEMENTS

To my knowledge there are no contractual arrangements on the properties other than the leases as detailed in the report that have a major benefit or are detrimental to the fundamental value base of the properties.

To the best of my knowledge, there are no options in favour of any parties for any purchase of any of the properties.

8. INTRA-GROUP OR RELATED PARTY LEASES

Having inspected all the tenant schedules and leases it is noted that there are no intra-group or related party leases.

9. CURRENT STATE OF DEVELOPMENT

There are no properties which are currently being developed.

10. EXTERNAL PROPERTY

None of the properties are situated outside the Republic of South Africa.

11. RENTALS USED IN VALUATIONS

Sections of some of the hotels have been leased out. The annual rental incomes from these leased sections have been outlined in the detailed valuation reports. The annual rental income of these leased sections forms part of the EBIDTA (Earnings Before Interest, Depreciation, Taxation and Amortisation).

12. OTHER GENERAL MATTERS AND VALUATION SUMMARY

A full valuation report is available on a property by property basis detailing tenancy, town planning, valuer’s commentary, expenditure and other details. This has been given to the directors of Hospitality Property Fund Limited and will be made available for inspection.

13. ALTERNATIVE USE FOR A PROPERTY

The properties have been valued in accordance with their existing use which represents their market value. No alternative uses for the properties have been considered in determining their value.

14. OTHER COMMENTS

Our valuation excludes any amounts of Value-added Tax, transfer duty, or securities transfer duty.

15. CAVEATS

15.1 Source of information and verification

Information on the properties regarding rental income, recoveries, turnovers and other income detail has been provided to me by the current owners and their managing agents.

I have further compared certain expenditures given to me, to the market norms of similar properties. This has also been compared to historic expenditure levels of the properties themselves. Historical contractual expenditures and municipal utility services were compared to the past performance of the properties in order to assess potential expenditure going forward.

15.2 Full disclosure

This valuation has been prepared on the basis that full disclosures of all information and factors that may affect the valuation have been made to me.

I have to the best of my ability researched the market as well as taken the steps detailed in paragraph 15.3 below.

15.3 Leases

Our valuation has reviewed actual tenant leases and other pertinent details of the current tenancies within the hotels. We are of the opinion that the terms and conditions of the current tenancies are within market norms and the transactions were arm’s length in nature. Rental income from the current tenancies is incorporated in the EBIDTA for each property.

15.4 Client Diversification Risk

In arriving at our valuation, cognizance has been taken of the of the location and client base of each hotel and the subsequent associated revenue sustainability risks thereof. In some cases this has influenced the capitalisation rate by way of a risk consideration.

15.5 Mortgage bonds, loans, etc.

The properties have been valued as if wholly-owned with no account being taken of any outstanding monies due in respect of mortgage bonds, loans and other charges. No deductions have been made in our valuation for costs of acquisition.

The valuation is detailed in a completed state and no deductions have been made for retention or any other set-off or deduction for any purposes which may be made at the discretion of the purchaser when purchasing the properties.

15.6 Calculation of areas

All areas quoted within the detailed valuation reports are those stated in the information furnished and verified where plans were available. To the extent that plans were not available, reliance was placed on the information submitted by the hotel manager’s.

Updated plans were not available for all the properties. The properties generally appear to have the stated square meterage which could only be more accurately determined if re-measured by a professional. The reported square meterage is therefore considered as correct as possible without a re-measurement exercise being undertaken.

15.7 Structural condition

The properties have been valued in their existing state. I have not carried out any structural surveys, nor inspected those areas that are unexposed or inaccessible, neither have I arranged for the testing of any electrical or other services.

15.8 Contamination

The valuation assumes that a formal environmental assessment is not required and further that none of the properties are environmentally impaired or contaminated, unless otherwise stated in our report.

Page 48: Hospitality Property Fund Limited€¦ · 7 April 2016, by submitting by e-mail to the company secretary at rosao@hpf.co.za, relevant contact details, including an e-mail address,

46

15.9 Town planning

Full town planning details and title deeds have been supplied in the detailed valuation reports including conditions and restrictions and the properties have been checked against such conditions. This is to ensure that they comply with town planning regulations and title deeds. There do not appear to be any infringements of local authority regulations or deeds by any of the property.

The valuation has further assumed that the improvements have been erected in accordance with the relevant Building and Town Planning Regulations and on inspection it would appear that the improvements are in accordance with the relevant town planning regulations for these properties.

There is no contravention of any statutory regulation or town planning local authority regulation or contravention of title deed relating to any of the properties which infringement could decrease the value of the properties as stated.

16. MARKET VALUE

I am of the opinion that the aggregate market value of the properties as at 30 September 2015 is R1 779 873 600 (excluding VAT). A summary of the individual valuations and details of each of the properties is attached.

To the best of my knowledge I belief there have been no material changes in circumstances between the date of the valuation and the date of the valuation report which would affect the valuation.

I have more than 15 years’ experience in the valuation of all nature of property and I am qualified to express an opinion on the fair market value of the properties.

I trust that I have carried out all instructions to your satisfaction and thank you for the opportunity of undertaking this valuation on your behalf.

Yours faithfully,

NOTES TO THE FORM OF PROXY:

1. Only shareholders who are registered in the registers of the company under their own name on the date on which shareholders must be recorded as such in the registers maintained by the transfer secretaries, in order to attend and vote at the general meeting being Friday, 1 April 2016 , may complete a form of proxy or attend the general meeting. This includes certificated shareholders or dematerialised shareholders with “own name” registration. A proxy need not be a shareholder of the company.

2. Certificated shareholders wishing to attend the general meeting have to ensure beforehand with the transfer secretaries of the company (being Computershare Investor Services Proprietary Limited) that their shares are registered in their own name.

3. Beneficial shareholders whose shares are not registered in their “own name”, but in the name of another, for example, a nominee, may not complete a proxy form, unless a form of proxy is issued to them by a registered shareholder and they should contact the registered shareholder for assistance in issuing instructions on voting their shares, or obtaining a proxy to attend, speak and, on a poll, vote at the general meeting.

4. Dematerialised shareholders who have not elected “own name” registration in the register of the company through a CSDP and who wish to attend the general meeting, must instruct the CSDP or broker to provide them with the necessary letter of representation to attend.

5. Dematerialised shareholders who have not elected “own name” registration in the register of the company through a CSDP and who are unable to attend, but wish to vote at the general meeting, must timeously provide their CSDP or broker with their voting instructions in terms of the custody agreement entered into between that shareholder and the CSDP or broker.

6. A shareholder may insert the name of a proxy or the names of two or more alternative proxies of the shareholder’s choice in the space, with or without deleting “the chairman of the general meeting”. The person whose name stands first on the form of proxy and who is present at the general meeting will be entitled to act as proxy to the exclusion of those whose names follow.

7. The completion and lodging of this form will not preclude the relevant shareholder from attending the general meeting and speaking and voting in person thereat to the exclusion of any proxy appointed, should such shareholder wish to do so. In addition to the aforegoing, a shareholder may revoke the proxy appointment by (i) cancelling it in writing, or making a later inconsistent appointment of a proxy; and (ii) delivering a copy of the revocation instrument to the proxy, and to the company.

8. The revocation of a proxy appointment constitutes a complete and final cancellation of the proxy’s authority to act on behalf of the relevant shareholder as of the later of the date:

8.1 stated in the revocation instrument, if any; or

8.2 upon which the revocation instrument is delivered to the proxy and the relevant company as required in section 58(4)(c)(ii) of the Companies Act, 71 of 2008, as amended (the “Companies Act”).

9. Should the instrument appointing a proxy or proxies have been delivered to the company, as long as that appointment remains in effect, any notice that is required by the Companies Act or the company’s Memorandum of Incorporation to be delivered by the company to the shareholder must be delivered by the company to:

9.1 the shareholder; or

9.2 the proxy or proxies if the shareholder has in writing directed the relevant company to do so and has paid any reasonable fee charged by the company for doing so.

10. A proxy is entitled to exercise, or abstain from exercising, any voting right of the relevant shareholder without direction, except to the extent that the Memorandum of Incorporation of the company or the instrument appointing the proxy provide otherwise.

11. If the company issues an invitation to shareholders to appoint one or more persons named by the company as a proxy, or supplies a form of instrument appointing a proxy:

11.1 such invitation must be sent to every shareholder who is entitled to receive notice of the meeting at which the proxy is intended to be exercised;

11.2 the company must not require that the proxy appointment be made irrevocable; and

11.3 the proxy appointment remains valid only until the end of the relevant meeting at which it was intended to be used, unless revoked as contemplated in section 58(5) of the Companies Act.

12. Any alteration or correction made to this form of proxy must be initialled by the signatory/ies. A deletion of any printed matter and the completion of any blank space(s) need not be signed or initialled.

13. Documentary evidence establishing the authority of a person signing this form of proxy in a representative capacity must be attached to this form unless previously recorded by the transfer secretaries of the company or waived by the chairman of the general meeting.

14. A minor must be assisted by his/her parent/guardian unless the relevant documents establishing his/her legal capacity are produced or have been registered by the transfer secretaries.

15. A company holding shares in the company that wishes to attend and participate at the general meeting should ensure that a resolution authorising a representative to act is passed by its directors. Resolutions authorising representatives in terms of section 57(5) of the Companies Act must be lodged with the company’s transfer secretaries prior to the general meeting.

16. Where there are joint holders of shares any one of such persons may vote at any meeting in respect of such shares as if he were solely entitled thereto; but if more than one of such joint holders wishes to be present or represented at the meeting, that one of the said persons whose name appears first in the register of shareholders of such shares or his proxy, as the case may be, shall alone be entitled to vote in respect thereof.

17. The chairman of the general meeting may reject or accept any proxy which is completed and/or received other than in accordance with the instructions, provided that he shall not accept a proxy unless he is satisfied as to the matter in which a shareholder wishes to vote.

18. A proxy may not delegate his/her authority to act on behalf of the shareholder, to another person.

19. A shareholder’s instruction to the proxy must be indicated by the insertion of the relevant number of shares to be voted on behalf of that shareholder in the appropriate space provided. Failure to comply with the above will be deemed to authorise the chairperson of the annual general meeting, if the chairperson is the authorised proxy, to vote in favour of the resolutions at the general meeting or other proxy to vote or to abstain from voting at the general meeting as he/she deems fit, in respect of the shares concerned. A shareholder or the proxy is not obliged to use all of the votes exercisable by the shareholder or the proxy, but the total of votes cast in respect whereof abstention is recorded may not exceed the total of the votes exercisable by the shareholder or the proxy.

20. Forms of proxy are requested to be deposited at the transfer secretaries, Computershare Investor Services Proprietary Limited, Ground Floor, 70 Marshall Street, Johannesburg, 2001, posted to PO Box 61051, Marshalltown, 2107, faxed to +27 11 370 5238 or emailed to [email protected] so as to arrive no later than 10:30 on Thursday, 7 April 2016. Forms of proxy not lodged with the transfer secretaries in time can be handed to the chairman of the general meeting immediately before the commencement thereof. Any shareholder who completes and lodges a form of proxy will nevertheless be entitled to attend, speak and vote in person at the general meeting should the shareholder decide to do so.

21. This form of proxy may be used at any adjournment or postponement of the general meeting, including any postponement due to a lack of quorum, unless withdrawn by the shareholder.

22. The aforegoing notes include a summary of the relevant provisions of section 58 of the Companies Act, as required in terms of that section.
