Placing and Offer Statistics<br />
Offer Price per Share 200p<br />
Initial adjusted Net Asset Value per Share 191p* 1<br />
Total number of Shares in issue post Admission 103,875,705*<br />
* Calculated on the basis of the Assumptions.<br />
1 The adjusted Net Asset Value is not calculated in accordance with IFRS since it does not include provision for deferred tax. It is,<br />
however, considered by the Directors to be of assistance to prospective investors in as much as deferred tax would only become<br />
payable on a sale of the underlying properties, which is not intended to occur, as opposed to the sale of companies owning<br />
properties. Including the provision for deferred tax, on the basis of the Assumptions, the Net Asset Value per Share immediately<br />
following Admission is expected to be 179p.<br />
On the basis of Assumptions and subject to no unforeseen events arising, the Directors currently have<br />
an initial target annualised dividend yield per Share for the financial year ending on 30 September 2007<br />
of 6 per cent. at the Offer Price (assuming conversion at the Exchange Rate).<br />
This target relates to dividends for the financial year ending on 30 September 2007 only. This target<br />
is not a projection or forecast of dividends actually payable or actual profit or cash available for<br />
distribution. There is no assurance as to the amount and timing of dividends or that any dividends<br />
may be declared or payable by the Company at all. The attention of prospective investors is drawn<br />
to the Risk Factors starting on page 8 of this Prospectus and Part X entitled ‘‘Principal Bases and<br />
Assumptions’’ starting on page 119 of this Prospectus.<br />
Where in this Propectus amounts are given in both Euro and Sterling, the Sterling amounts are<br />
calculated by reference to the Exchange Rate.<br />
