SECTION FOUR – ADDITIONAL MATERIAL INFORMATION

26. RELATIONSHIP INFORMATION

26.1 The directors of Lodestone, the directors of its subsidiaries and the promoters, did not have any beneficial interests, direct or indirect, in relation to any property held or property to be acquired by the group nor are they contracted to become a tenant of any part of the property of the group.

26.2 There is no relationship between any parties mentioned in paragraph 2 of the prospectus and another person that may conflict with a duty to the group.

26.3 Neither the property managers, nor its directors have any beneficial interest, direct or indirect, in any securities or participatory interests to be issued by the company.

26.4 Save as disclosed in respect of the acquisitions set out in Annexure 12, the vendors did not have any beneficial interest, direct or indirect, in any securities or participatory interests to be issued by the company.

26.5 The directors of Lodestone, the directors of its subsidiaries and the promoters did not have any material beneficial interest in the acquisition or disposal of any properties or investments of the company during the two years preceding the date of the valuation of such properties being 1 December 2014, other than as disclosed in Annexure 23.

27. CONSIDERATIONS RELATING TO LODESTONE BEING APPROVED AS A REIT

27.1 The JSE has granted Lodestone a listing of all its issued ordinary shares in the “Diversified REIT’s” sector on the AltX of the JSE lists, in terms of the “FTSE classification”.

27.2 With effect from 1 April 2013 a unified system was created for taxing REITs.

27.3 The new legislation has been drafted in line with international norms on the basis that the objective of a REIT is to provide investors with a steady rental stream whilst also providing capital growth that flows from the investment in the underlying property.

27.4 In order to qualify as a REIT for tax purposes, the entity must be a South African tax resident and its securities must be listed on the JSE as securities in a REIT.

27.5 A REIT is entitled to claim a deduction in respect of all qualifying distributions made by it either in the form of dividends or as interest on the debenture portion of a linked unit. The deduction does not apply to any dividends in the form of share buybacks. In order to become a REIT, a qualifying distribution of at least 75% of the gross income received by or accrued to a REIT must consist of rental income. The concept of rental income is not only defined with reference to amounts received or accrued in respect of the use of immovable property such as rental, but also:

27.5.1 a penalty or interest in respect of the late payment of rentals;

27.5.2 a dividend from a company that is a REIT at the time of the distribution of the dividend;

27.5.3 a qualifying distribution from a controlled company; or

27.5.4 a dividend from a property company.

27.6 By being able to claim a deduction in respect of these qualifying distributions, the tax liability of a REIT is expected to be minimal.

27.7 The consequence of being able to claim a deduction in respect of qualifying distributions is that the dividends distributed by a REIT to resident shareholders will be subject to normal tax and will not be exempt. However, no additional dividends tax will be payable in respect of these distributions which are subject to income tax. With effect from 1 January 2014, dividends that are distributed by a REIT to foreign shareholders are subject to dividends withholding tax.

27.8 The tax dispensation that applies to REITs also applies to so-called controlled companies. A controlled company is a company that is a subsidiary of a REIT as defined in terms of IFRS. In other words, the requirement is to be determined from an IFRS perspective and not from a company law perspective. For instance, a company can be a subsidiary of a trust in certain circumstances. The effect is that a controlled company can make deductible distributions to the REIT for so long as the 75% rental test is satisfied.

31

27.9 A second category of companies that is relevant for a REIT is that of a property company. This is a company in which 20% or more of the equity share or linked units are held by a REIT or a controlled company and of which at the end of such previous year of assessment 80% or more of the value of the assets, as reflected in the annual financial statements of such property company for the previous year of assessment is, directly or indirectly, attributable to immovable property. Even though this type of entity is not entitled to deduct distributions, the distributions so received by a REIT from a property company will qualify as rental income if the property company has made distributions in circumstances where it satisfies the 75% rental test.

27.10 Pursuant to being classified as a REIT for tax purposes, capital gains or losses that arise in respect of the disposal by a REIT or a controlled company of the following assets are to be ignored for capital gains tax purposes:

27.10.1 immovable property;

27.10.2 a share or a linked unit in a company that is a REIT at the time of the disposal; or

27.10.3 a share or a linked unit in a company that is a property company at the time of the disposal.

27.11 It is important to note that speculative transactions are still taxable.

27.12 The aggregate amount of the deductions that can be claimed by a REIT in respect of a qualifying distribution may not exceed the taxable income for that year of assessment of that REIT or the relevant controlled company, before taking into account:

27.12.1 any deduction of an amount as envisaged in section 25BB of the Income Tax Act;

27.12.2 any assessed loss brought forward in terms of section 20 of the Income Tax Act; and

27.12.3 the amount of taxable capital gain included in taxable income in terms of section 26A of the Income Tax Act.

27.13 Any amount received by or accrued to a REIT or a controlled company in respect of a financial instrument must now be included in the income of the relevant company, whether or not the financial instrument may have been held on capital account. However, this deeming provision does not apply to the disposal of a share or a linked unit in a company that is a REIT, a controlled company, or a property company on the date of disposal.

27.14 Both the acquisition and disposal of shares in a REIT are exempt from the payment of securities transfer tax.

28. PROPERTIES, ASSETS AND BUSINESS UNDERTAKINGS DISPOSED OF OR TO BE DISPOSED OF

Other than as disclosed in Annexure 23, no other material immovable properties and/or fixed assets and/or business undertakings have been disposed of in the three years preceding the last practical date or are intended to be disposed of within six months of listing on the JSE.

29. VENDORS

29.1 Details relating to the vendors of material properties (“acquisition properties”) purchased by the group in the preceding three years or proposed to be purchased are set out in Annexure 12.

29.2 The vendors of the acquisition properties have not guaranteed the book debts of the letting enterprises acquired or to be acquired by the group. The agreements entered into governing the acquisition of the acquisition properties contain warranties which are usual for transactions of this nature.

29.3 The agreements entered into between the company and each of the vendors of the acquisition properties do not preclude the vendors of the acquisition properties from carrying on business in competition with the company nor do the agreements impose any other restrictions on the vendors of the acquisition properties and therefore no payment in cash or otherwise has been made in this regard.

29.4 There are no liabilities for accrued taxation that will be settled in terms of agreements with vendors of the acquisition properties.

29.5 Save as disclosed in respect of the acquisitions set out in Annexure 12, Lodestone has not purchased any securities in any company.

29.6 No promoter or director (or any partnership, syndicate or other association in which a promoter or director had an interest) had any beneficial interest, direct or indirect in any transaction relating to any of the assets detailed in Annexure 12 and Annexure 23.

32

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

29.8 Other than those acquisitions referred to in Annexure 12, all of the assets acquired have been transferred into the name of the group. The assets referred to in Annexure 12 have not been ceded or pledged to any party. However, the assets referred to in Annexure 12 have been provided as security for borrowings as set out in Annexure 11.

30. GOVERNMENT PROTECTION AND INVESTMENT ENCOURAGEMENT LAW

INDEPENDENT PROPERTY VALUER’S SUMMARY VALUATION REPORT ON THE PROPERTY PORTFOLIO

23 January 2015

The DirectorsLodestone REIT Limited3rd FloorRivonia VillageRivonia BoulevardRivonia

Dear Sirs

RE: INDEPENDENT PROPERTY VALUERS’ REPORT OF THE PROPERTY PORTFOLIO FOR LODESTONE REIT LIMITED (“LODESTONE”) AS DETAILED IN THE SUMMARY SCHEDULE ATTACHED AND FOR WHICH THERE ARE DETAILED VALUATION REPORTS HELD BY LODESTONE

In accordance with your instruction of 8 September 2014, I confirm that I have visited and inspected the 22 properties listed in the attached schedule (“the properties”) during June 2014 (Section 13.23(a)(iii)) and have received all necessary details required to perform a valuation in order to provide you with my opinion of the properties’ market values as at 1 December 2014 (Section 13.23(c)).

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 Lodestone. The detailed reports include commentary on the current economy, nature of the properties, locality, tenancy, risk profile, forward rent and 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 tenancy income capability and expenditure for each property and tenant. Historic expenditure profile as well as future expenditure increases have been considered. The value therefore indicates the fair market value for each property which is detailed in the attached report and which has been summarised on a schedule as attached hereto, for each property. There are 22 properties in total comprising the portfolio. All essential aspects of information of all the properties have been summarised in the attached schedule.

2. BASIS OF VALUATION

The valuation is based on market value.

Market value is “The estimated amount for which an asset or liability should exchange on the valuation date between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction, after proper marketing and where the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion.” (IVS 7th edition).

Furthermore the principals of fair value measurement have been applied in the determination of value which is defined as “The price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.” (IFRS 13)

Note that the values and calculation methodology have been sensitivity tested by way of quantitative analysis by analysing the capitalisation rates, discount rates, rental growth potential, expenditure increase, risk consideration and other inputs in various discounted cash flow models.

62

3. VALUE CALCULATION

The calculation of the current market value of these properties has been based on income capitalisation. This is the fundamental basis on which most commercial income producing properties are traded on the South Africa market. This is due to there being strong supporting evidence of market rental rates, appropriate expenses and therefore accurate net revenue potential determination. Consequently capitalisation rates are frequently reported when details are given on transactions. This rate may also be determined by simple analysis of sales in the market (Section 13.23(d)).

Properties traded in the current market reflect a yield rate relationship between revenue and capital value. This rate is an accurate determinant of the capitalisation rate.

The discounted cash flow value has also been calculated for each property as a check and a balance with reference to fair value reporting in order to ensure that the capitalised value calculated is tested against and is consistent with the market.

The considerations for the valuations are as follows:

3.1 calculating the forward cash flow of all contractual and other income derived from the properties;

3.2 calculating the forward contractual and other expenditure as well as provisions for various expenses in order to provide for void or future capital expenditure to which the property may be exposed;

3.3 the current area vacancy as a percentage of the properties is approximately 3.68%. In order to apply a conservative approach, I have deducted approximately 1.08% of the gross income as a provision for rental that may not be collected as a consequence of vacancy, tenant failure or tenant refitting during the course of the coming year. This has penalised the property in perpetuity. Management should be able to improve substantially on this aspect in future indicating good internal growth potential from the properties themselves if managed aggressively. The current vacancy is less than the market average (weighted at approximately 6.3%) for this nature of property type. The void provision used in the valuation is therefore adequate.

3.4 I have further deducted a capital amount of R582 633.00 in respect of income lost due to time delays before new tenants occupy premises. This is deducted from the post capitalised figure. (Section 13.23(f)(i));

3.5 there is no loss of rental due to renovations or refurbishments currently being carried out on the buildings. There is some external maintenance work on various buildings and some tenant installation fitting that is currently in progress. There is no loss of rental as a result of these activities. (Section 13.23(f)(ii));

3.6 generally the rentals are market related. Some rentals are lower than market. There are no leases with rentals that are higher than market. This has been determined by comparing similar buildings in comparable areas to the properties valued, in terms of rental per square metre. The rental rate has also been checked against various published indices including the South African Property Owners Association (SAPOA) index. There are no properties that are over-rented, or that cannot be re-rented at the same or higher rental rate should such property become vacant. There is therefore minimal potential for rental flow reversion. There is, however, a positive upside potential for real growth in rental, given the low base off which the average rentals flow. This is provided that the economy remains in a slow recovery pattern as currently being experienced as that there are no major economic fluctuations which may upset the economy. Current growth rate of approximately 1.7% for 2014. ((Section 13.23(f)(iii));

3.7 capitalising the net contractual income derived from the properties for a period of one year in advance, calculated from 1 December 2014;

3.8 the valuation has considered published market statistics regarding rental rates and expenditure for the different types of properties. It has also considered numerous other portfolios of similar properties in order to benchmark and determine if any properties are over rented or have excessive expenditure; and

3.9 various provisions for capital contingencies were deducted from the capitalised value of all the properties. This amount totals R6 781 314.67, or 0.69% of the total portfolio value.

4. SPARE LAND

There is one property with tracts of vacant zoned and serviced spare land.

Union Park Alberton has prime highway frontage land for industrial development. The Union land portion has had minimal value attached as it is to be held for a while before being developed. It has excellent development potential and has sufficient municipal services and zoning which allows for future development.

Various projects are possible due to the potential of the land. Currently it is unknown as to when development may commence. No planning permission has been applied for in respect of the spare land. (Section 13.26)

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; 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.

I am, 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, or legal dispute which may result in any cash flow hiatus. (Section 13.23(e)).

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. (Section 13.23(g)).

To the best of my knowledge, there are no options in favour of any parties for any purchase arrangement on any of the properties. (Section 13.23(h)).

7. INTRA-GROUP OR RELATED PARTY LEASES (SECTION 13.23(A)(XI))

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

8. CURRENT STATE OF DEVELOPMENT

There are no properties which are currently being developed. Note, however, that there is spare land capacity for expansion on certain properties. (Section 13.24, 13.25 and 13.26).

9. EXTERNAL PROPERTY

None of the properties are situated outside the Republic of South Africa. (Section 13.28).

10. RENTALS USED IN VALUATIONS

Note that all these properties are generally rented out. The current annual rental and future annual rentals have been calculated in a separate discounted cash flow schedule. It is noted that there are no material rental reversions and that the rentals for all the properties increase on average by approximately 6.72% compounding per annum.

65

11. OTHER GENERAL MATTERS AND VALUATION SUMMARY (SECTIONS 13.30 AND 13.31)

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 Lodestone. Note that Van Riebeeck Mall and Station Road Mafikeng are leasehold properties which value has been detailed separately.

12. ALTERNATIVE USE FOR A PROPERTY (13.27)

The properties have all been valued in accordance with their existing use which represents their best use and market value. No alternative uses for the properties have been considered in determination of their value.

13. OTHER COMMENTS

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

14. CAVEATS

14.1 Source of information and verification (Section 13.23(a)(xiii))

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 received copies of all of the leases of the existing properties where such leases are the major tenant or tenants comprising anything higher than 5% occupancy of the property. The leases have been read to check against management detail records, in order to ensure that management has correctly captured tenant information as per the contractual agreements. This has been done to test management information accuracy against the underlying lease agreements.

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. The municipal values on the properties are generally market related and reasonable with little potential to increase dramatically.

14.2 Full disclosure

This valuation has been prepared on the basis that full disclosure of all revenue and expenditure information and factors that may affect the valuation have been made to myself.

I have to the best of my ability researched the market as well as taken the steps detailed in paragraph 14.3 below.

14.3 Leases (Section 13.23(a)(ix))

Our valuation has been based on a review of actual tenants’ leases (which includes material terms such as repair obligations, escalations, break options etc.) and other pertinent details which have been supplied to us by the managing agents and by Lodestone. These have been detailed in the tenant schedules attached to each individual valuation report.

All recovery details in respect of the existing leases e.g. utility cost and other recoveries as provided for in the leases have been disclosed by way of the monthly tenant invoices and summary schedule supplied to us. Option terms and other lease information have been supplied to us by the owners and managing agents and we are familiar with such documents.

14.4 Lessee’s credibility

In arriving at our valuation, cognizance has been taken of the lessee’s security and rating. In some cases this has influenced the capitalisation rate by way of a risk consideration.

14.5 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.

66

14.6 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 managing agents and lease information.

Updated plans were not available for all the properties in respect of internal configuration. The properties generally appear to have the stated square meterage as per lease, which could only be more accurately determined if remeasured by a professional.

14.7 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.

14.8 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.

14.9 Town planning (Section 13.23(a)(vi) and (vii))

Full town planning details and title deeds have been noted 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 properties.

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 as at current date of local authority legislation.

15. MARKET VALUE

I am of the opinion that the aggregate market value of the properties as at 1 December 2014 is R979 030 000.00 (excluding VAT). A summary of the individual valuations and details of each of the properties is attached.

To the best of our knowledge and 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 30 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,

REPORT BY THE AUDITOR IN TERMS OF REGULATION 79 OF THE COMPANIES ACT IN RESPECT OF LODESTONE

“The DirectorsLodestone REIT Limited3rd Floor, Rivonia VillageRivonia BoulevardRivonia2191

23 January 2015

Dear Sirs

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT IN TERMS OF REGULATION 79 OF THE COMPANIES ACT OF SOUTH AFRICA ON THE FINANCIAL INFORMATION INCLUDED IN THE PROSPECTUS

Introduction

Deloitte & Touche are the appointed auditors of Lodestone REIT Limited (“the Company”) and Lodestone Investments Proprietary Limited and Lodestone Investments 2 Proprietary Limited (“the subsidiaries”). Regulation 79 of the Companies Act of South Africa requires us to report on the following financial information (“financial information”), which is included in the prospectus of Lodestone REIT Limited to be issued on or about 11 February 2015:

• the separate profits or losses of the company and the subsidiaries in respect of the years ended 30 June 2014, 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2012 as set out in Annexure 13 of the prospectus;

• the separate assets and liabilities of the company and the subsidiaries as at 30 June 2014, 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2012, as set out in Annexure 13 of the prospectus;

• the dividends paid by the company and the subsidiaries in respect of each class of securities for the years ended 30 June 2014, 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2012 as set out in Annexure 13 of the prospectus, including particulars of each class of share on which dividends were paid and cases where no dividends were paid in respect of a particular class of shares.

The financial information has been extracted from the audited financial statements of the company and the subsidiaries for the years ended 30 June 2014, 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2012, which were prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards and the Companies Act of South Africa. We expressed an unqualified audit opinion on those audited financial statements in our reports dated 24 November 2014 based on our audit which was conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing.

This financial information does not reflect the effects of events that may have occurred subsequent to the date of our audit report on those audited annual financial statements. Furthermore, the financial information does not contain all the disclosures required by the International Financial Reporting Standards and the requirements of the Companies Act of South Africa and therefore reading the financial information is not a substitute for reading the audited consolidated financial statements of the subsidiaries.

Extraction of financial information

As a result of the financial information being extracted from the audited financial statements, we can report that in the context of the audit performed on these financial statements:

• the financial information is not materially misstated and is prepared on a basis consistent with the Companies Act of South Africa;

• the debtors and creditors included in the financial information did not include any material amounts that were not trade accounts;

• the provision for doubtful debts included in the financial information did not appear to be materially misstated; and

• in respect of the financial information, the intercompany profits have been eliminated.

92

Responsibility of the directors for the financial information

The directors are responsible for the audited financial statements, the extraction of the financial information therefrom, and the presentation of the financial information in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act of South Africa.

REPORT OF FACTUAL FINDINGS ON THE MATERIAL CHANGES IN THE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

In accordance with Regulation 79 (4)(b)(v) we are required to include a statement in our report, as to whether there have been any material changes in the assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries since the financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2014.

As a result, we have performed the following procedures which were agreed with you:

• we reviewed the latest management accounts including the management accounts of the subsidiaries and compared the categories of assets and liabilities to the statement of financial position dated 30 June 2014. Where movements in the assets and liabilities were in excess of 20%, these have been reported in the findings below;

• we reviewed minutes of meetings of the board of directors of the Company and its subsidiaries since 30 June 2014 to identify any matters regarding material changes in the assets and liabilities, such as the sale or purchase of a significant asset; and

• we obtained a letter of representation from management confirming that there have been no material changes in the assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries since 30 June 2014.

Our engagement was undertaken in accordance with the International Standard on Related Services (ISRS) 4400: Engagements to Perform Agreed-Upon Procedures Regarding Financial Information. The procedures were performed solely to assist you in complying with Regulation 79 (4)(b)(v) of the Companies Act of South Africa.

Responsibilities of the directors

The directors have the responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the records, documents, explanations and other information provided to us for the purpose of performing the procedures and for determining whether the nature and scope of our work specified in this factual findings report is sufficient for the purposes of evaluating the material changes in the assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Responsibilities of the auditor

An agreed upon procedure engagement involves applying our expertise to perform procedures as agreed by us and the directors and reporting the factual findings from the procedures performed. We have complied with relevant ethical requirements, including the principles of integrity, objectivity, professional competence and due care.

Since an agreed upon procedure engagement is not an assurance engagement, we are not required to verify the accuracy or completeness of the information management has provided to us to complete the agreed upon procedure engagement. Because the above procedures do not constitute either an audit or a review made in accordance with International Standards on Auditing or International Standards on Review Engagements, we do not express any assurance on the material changes in the assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries. Had we performed additional procedures or had we performed an audit or review of the financial statements in accordance with International Standards on Auditing or International Standards on Review Engagements, other matters might have come to our attention that would have been reported.

Findings

We report our findings as follows:

• On 1 December 2014, we compared the below categories of assets and liabilities per the management accounts of the Company and the subsidiaries as at 30 September 2014 to the statement of financial position for the year ended 30 June 2014:

– non-current assets; – current assets; – non-current assets classified as held for sale; – non-current liabilities; – current liabilities; – non-current liabilities directly associated with assets classified as held for sale; and – no movement exceeding 20% in assets and liabilities were noted.

• On 1 December 2014, we reviewed minutes of meetings of the board of directors of the Company and its subsidiaries since 30 June 2014 and did not identify any matters regarding material changes in the assets and liabilities, such as the sale or purchase of a significant asset;

93

• On 1 December 2014, we obtained a letter of representation from management confirming that there have been no material changes in the assets and liabilities of the Company and its subsidiaries since 30 June 2014.

Our findings relate only to the accounts and items specified above and do not extend to any financial statements of the Company taken as a whole.

Consent

We consent to the inclusion of this report, which will form part of the prospectus to the shareholders of Lodestone REIT Limited, to be issued on or about 11 February 2015, in the form and context in which it appears. Our report should not to be used for any other purpose or be distributed to any other parties.

Notes and assumptions

The forecasts incorporate the following material assumptions in respect of revenue and expenses that can be influenced by the directors:

• Lodestone’s management forecasts for the period ending 31 March 2015 and year ended 31 March 2016 are based on information derived from the property managers, historical information and work performed by the valuer;

• Lodestone will not acquire or dispose of any properties during the period of the forecasts other than those detailed in Annexure 12 and Annexure 23;

• contracted revenue is based on existing lease agreements;

• uncontracted revenue amounts to 5.3% of rental revenue for the period ending 31 March 2015 and 14.7% of rental revenue for the period ending 31 March 2016;

• all existing lease agreements are valid;

• turnover rental (rental income based on the actual turnover of the tenant) has only been forecast for those tenants who have previously been subject to turnover rental clauses;

• in considering the re-letting of expiring leases, the property managers and asset managers consider the expiring rental, the market related rental in the area in which the property is located and the opportunities for re-letting. The forecast also assumes a lag between expiration of the lease and the re-letting if it is assumed that the tenant will not renew. Provision has been included for letting commission and tenant installation;

• leases expiring during the periods have been forecast on a lease-by-lease basis, and in circumstances where discussion with the lessee has proven positive are forecast to be let at current market rates;

• Lodestone management’s forecast property operating expenditure has been determined based on their review of historical expenditure, where available, and discussion with the property managers;

• the properties have been fair valued at 1 December 2014;

• this profit forecast has been compiled utilising the accounting policies of the Lodestone group as set out in Annexure 22;

• Other than electricity consumption and rates and taxes, there have been no material expenditure items, there have been no changes of more than 15% between historical expenses and forecast expenses relating to material expenditure items and all adjustments are expected to have a continuing effect.

The forecasts incorporate the following material assumptions in respect of revenue and expenses that cannot be influenced by the directors:

1. the effective date for determining income attributable to the shareholders post listing is 1 December 2014;

2. the issue price of R5.10 per private placement share is assumed to include a dividend amount of 10 cents per share relating to the period from 1 December 2014 to 25 February 2015, being the date the shares are anticipated to be issued. Accordingly, the forward yield in respect of the period ending 31 March 2015 and the year ending 31 March 2016 has been calculated with a clean issue price of R5.00 per private placement share, being the issue price excluding the dividend amount of 10 cents.

3. variable rate borrowings of R323 million incur interest at 1.90% above Jibar;

4. there will be no unforeseen economic factors that will affect the lessees’ abilities to meet their commitments in terms of existing lease agreements;

5. other income is in respect of the interest earned on loans advanced to the directors to purchase shares in Lodestone; and

6. consumption based recoveries are consistent with the valuer’s property income statements.

The forecast has been prepared in full compliance with Lodestone’s IFRS accounting policies and has been prepared on an aggregated basis for the property portfolios.

INDEPENDENT REPORTING ACCOUNTANT’S ASSURANCE REPORT ON THE PROPERTY FORECAST STATEMENTS OF COMPREHENSIVE INCOME OF THE LODESTONE GROUP

“The DirectorsLodestone REIT Limited3rd Floor, Rivonia VillageRivonia BoulevardRivonia2191

23 January 2015

Dear Sirs

INDEPENDENT REPORTING ACCOUNTANT’S ASSURANCE REPORT ON THE PROPERTY FORECAST INCLUDED IN THE PROSPECTUS

We have examined the property forecast statements of comprehensive income and the underlying assumptions of Lodestone REIT Limited (“the company”), Lodestone Investments Proprietary Limited and Lodestone Investments 2 Proprietary Limited (“the subsidiaries”) collectively, (“the group”) for the period ending 31 March 2015 and financial year ending 31 March 2016, as set out in Annexure 15 of the prospectus to be dated on or around 11 February 2015 (the “prospectus”), and the forecast vacancy profile, by sector and by gross lettable area and the forecast lease expiry profile based on existing lease agreements, as set out in paragraph 3.4.1 of the prospectus (collectively “forecast information”).

The forecast information has been prepared and presented in accordance with the JSE Listings Requirements. In terms of the JSE Listings Requirements, the forecast statements of comprehensive income must be prepared on an aggregated basis for the property portfolio on the basis of the future accounting policies of the group which must be in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Directors’ responsibility

The directors are responsible for the preparation and presentation of the forecast information in accordance with the JSE Listings Requirements, including the assumptions set out in Annexure 15, on which it is based, and for the financial information from which it has been prepared. This responsibility includes determining whether:

• the assumptions, barring unforeseen circumstances, provide a reasonable basis for the preparation of the forecast information;

• the forecast information has been properly compiled on the basis stated;

• the forecast information has been properly presented and that all material assumptions are adequately disclosed; and

• the forecast information is presented on a basis consistent with the accounting policies of the group.

Reporting accountant’s responsibility

Our responsibility is to express a limited assurance conclusion on the reasonableness of the assumptions used in the forecast information and whether the forecast information has been prepared on the basis of those assumptions and is presented in accordance with the JSE Listings Requirements, based on the procedures we have performed and the evidence we have obtained.

We conducted our assurance engagement in accordance with the International Standard on Assurance Engagement (“ISAE”) 3400: The Examination of Prospective Financial Information (“ISAE 3400”), issued by the International Auditing and Assurance Standards Board and the SAICA circular entitled “The reporting accountant’s reporting responsibilities in terms of section 13 of the Listings Requirements of the JSE Limited”. This standard requires that we plan and perform the engagement to obtain sufficient appropriate evidence on which to base our limited assurance conclusion as to whether or not:

97

• management’s best-estimate assumptions on which the forecast information is 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;

• the forecast information is prepared and presented on a basis consistent with the accounting policies of the group in question for the period concerned; and

• the property forecast reflects a profit before taxation of more than R16 million for the period ending 31 March 2015 and R54 million for the year ending 31 March 2016 after taking into account the headline earnings adjustments and before any distributions to security holders as required by JSE Listings Requirement 13.3(a).

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

Information and sources of information

In arriving at our conclusion, we have relied upon forecast financial information prepared by management of the group 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 audited historical financial information of the company and the subsidiaries for the year ended 30 June 2014;

• management prepared forecasts for the period ending 31 March 2015 and year ending 31 March 2016;

• discussions with the management of the group regarding the forecasts presented;

• discussions with management of the group regarding the prevailing market and economic conditions;

• discussions with the property managers with regard to the forecast expenses;

• lease agreements for a sample of the leases as set out below;

• valuation reports in respect of some of the properties;

• property management agreements, acquisition agreements and agreements with promoters, where applicable;

• term sheets and loan agreements from bankers.

Procedures

In arriving at our limited assurance conclusion we performed the following procedures and evaluated the overall presentation of the forecast information:

Rental income

• The forecast contracted rental income streams per the profit forecast, were selected for a sample of properties and agreed to the underlying lease agreements. The total coverage obtained was 70.4% for the period ending 31 March 2015 and 70.7% for the year ending 31 March 2016 of the forecast contracted rental income.

• The rental income streams from the above sample were recalculated to test the accuracy of the information contained in the profit forecast.

• For that same sample of properties, forecast recoveries were compared to historical recoveries and the forecast operating expenditure to test for reasonableness. The terms of the leases were considered so as to test that the basis of the recoveries was correct.

• Forecast rental income resulting from profit warranties provided by the seller was agreed to the relevant purchase agreement, where applicable.

• Existing lease agreements that will expire during the period under review were discussed individually with asset managers. Unless the existing tenant has indicated that it intends to vacate the premises, it has been assumed that the existing tenant will renew the lease agreement and the resultant uncontracted rental income has been included in the forecast.

• Space that is currently empty has been excluded from the forecast except where the property manager has demonstrated that the vacant space is in the process of being let but that the lease agreement in that regard had not been signed on the date of posting the prospectus.

98

• The vacancy levels per the forecast model were compared to the historical vacancy levels to test for reasonableness. Uncontracted rental income comprises 10% and 28% of the total forecast revenue for the period ending 31 March 2015 and year ending 31 March 2016 respectively.

Expenses

For a sample of properties, forecast expenses were compared to the historical expenses and explanations were obtained for any significant differences. The total expenses tested amounted to 41% and 43% of the total forecast expenses for the period ending 31 March 2015 and year ending 31 March 2016 respectively.

The detailed forecast expenditure was reviewed and the following expenses were noted that exceed 10% of total expenditure, as required by paragraph 13.14 of the JSE Listings Requirements:

• rates and taxes of R5 922 414 (17%) for the period ending 31 March 2015 and R9 073 234 (16%) for the year ending 31 March 2016;

• electricity consumption of R18 694 343 (47%) for the period ending 31 March 2015 and R24 349 748 (44%) for the year ending 31 March 2016.

Portfolio expenses

The forecast interest income, interest expense, property management fees and other portfolio expenses were assessed for reasonableness and, where applicable, recalculated.

Application of accounting policies

We ascertained that the accounting policies to be applied by the group in the future were applied consistently in arriving at forecast income and that they are in compliance with International Financial Reporting Standards.

Model review

We determined that the assumptions tested in the procedures described above were those used in the forecast model.

Vacancy profile and lease expiry profile

We reviewed the individual property worksheets to ascertain that the vacancy profile and the lease expiry profile included in the model were derived from the correct sources. We compared the vacancy profile and lease expiry profile included in paragraph 3.4 of the prospectus to the vacancy profile and lease expiry profile in the model and found them to be in agreement.

Inherent limitations

Achievability of the results

The forecast information is based on assumptions about events that may occur in the future and possible actions by the group. It is highly subjective in nature and its preparation requires the exercise of considerable judgement. While evidence may be available to support the assumptions on which the forecast information is based, such evidence is itself generally future oriented and, therefore, speculative in nature. Therefore we are unable to express an opinion as to whether the results shown in the forecast information will be achieved.

Accuracy of the information

The objective of our engagement is to provide a limited assurance conclusion on the reasonableness of the assumptions used in the forecast information, whether the forecast information has been prepared on the basis of those assumptions and is presented in accordance with the JSE Listings Requirements. We have relied upon and assumed the accuracy and completeness of the information provided to us in writing, or obtained through discussions from the management of the group. While our work has involved an analysis of historical financial information and consideration of other information provided to us, our assurance engagement does not constitute an audit or review of historical financial information conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing or International Standards on Review Engagements. Accordingly, we do not express an audit or review opinion thereon and assume no responsibility and make no representations in respect of the accuracy or completeness of any information provided to us, in respect of the property forecast and relevant information included in the prospectus.

99

Limited Assurance Conclusion

Based on our examination of the evidence obtained, nothing has come to our attention that 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 forecast information has not been properly presented in accordance with the JSE Listings Requirements and all material assumptions are not adequately disclosed; and

• the forecast information is not presented on a basis consistent with the accounting policies of the company or group in question.

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.

Restriction on Distribution

Our report and the conclusion contained herein is provided solely for the benefit of the directors of the company and existing and prospective shareholders of the group for the purpose of their consideration of the listing of the company on the Johannesburg Stock Exchange. This letter is not addressed to and may not be relied upon by any other third party for any purpose whatsoever.

Consent

We consent to the inclusion of this report, which will form part of the prospectus to the shareholders of the company, to be issued on or about 11 February 2015, in the form and context in which it appears.

INDEPENDENT REPORTING ACCOUNTANT’S ASSURANCE REPORT ON THE COMPILATION OF THE CONSOLIDATED PRO FORMA STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION OF THE LODESTONE GROUP

“The DirectorsLodestone REIT Limited3rd Floor, Rivonia VillageRivonia BoulevardRivonia2191

23 January 2015

Dear Sirs

INDEPENDENT REPORTING ACCOUNTANTS’ ASSURANCE REPORT ON THE COMPILATION OF PRO FORMA STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION INCLUDED IN THE PROSPECTUS

We have completed our assurance engagement to report on the compilation of pro forma financial information of Lodestone REIT Limited by the directors. The pro forma financial information, as set out in Annexure 17 of the prospectus, to be dated on or about 11 February 2015 (“prospectus”), consists of the statement of financial position and related notes. The pro forma financial information has been compiled on the basis of the applicable criteria specified in the JSE Limited (“JSE”) Listings Requirements.

The pro forma financial information has been compiled by the directors to illustrate the impact of the transaction, described in paragraph 16 of the prospectus, being the private placement, on the company’s financial position as at 30 June 2014, being the last day of the financial year for the purposes of the statement of financial position. As part of this process, information about the company’s financial position has been extracted by the directors from the company’s financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2014, on which an unqualified auditor’s report was issued on 24 November 2014.

Directors’ responsibility for the pro forma financial information

The directors are responsible for compiling the pro forma financial information on the basis of the applicable criteria specified in the JSE Listings Requirements and described in Annexure 17 of the prospectus.

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 specified in the JSE Listings Requirements based on our procedures performed. We conducted our engagement in accordance with the International Standard on Assurance Engagements (ISAE) 3420, Assurance Engagements to Report on the Compilation of Pro forma Financial Information Included in a Prospectus which is applicable to an engagement of this nature. This standard requires that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform our procedures to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the pro forma financial information has been compiled, in all material respects, on the basis specified in the JSE Listings Requirements.

For purposes of this engagement, we are not responsible for updating or reissuing any reports or opinions on any historical 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 financial information used in compiling the pro forma financial information.

INDEPENDENT REPORTING ACCOUNTANT’S REVIEW REPORT ON THE VALUATION AND EXISTENCE OF THE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES ACQUIRED

“The DirectorsLodestone REIT Limited3rd Floor, Rivonia VillageRivonia BoulevardRivonia2191

23 January 2015

Dear Sirs

REVIEW CONCLUSION ON THE VALUATION AND EXISTENCE OF THE ASSETS AND LIABILITIES ACQUIRED BY LODESTONE REIT LIMITED (“LODESTONE”)

Introduction

We have reviewed the assets and liabilities acquired by Lodestone as reflected in the acquisition adjustment column of the pro forma statement of financial position included in Annexure 17 of the prospectus to be issued on or about 11 February 2015 (“the prospectus”) relating to the assets and liabilities to be acquired by Lodestone prior to the listing on the JSE Limited. The directors are responsible for the compilation, contents and preparation of the adjustment columns of the pro forma statement of financial position in accordance with International Accounting Standards on Interim Financial Reporting (IAS 34) and the requirements of the Companies Act of South Africa. Our responsibility is to express a review conclusion on the valuation and existence of the assets and liabilities acquired as reflected in the adjustment columns in accordance with the accounting policies adopted by Lodestone and the recognition and measurement criteria of International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and the requirements of the Companies Act of South Africa.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standards on Review Engagements 2410: Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the independent auditor of the entity. This standard requires that we plan and perform the review to obtain moderate assurance on the valuation and existence of the assets and liabilities acquired by Lodestone as reflected in the adjustment columns of the pro forma statement of financial position. Our review conclusion is included in this prospectus in accordance with paragraph 13.16(e) of the JSE Listings Requirements.

A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for 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.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the assets and liabilities acquired by Lodestone as reflected in the adjustment column of the pro forma statement of financial position included in Annexure 17 of the prospectus are not fairly valued, do not exist or are not fairly presented, in all material respects, in accordance with the accounting policies adopted by Lodestone, IFRS and in the manner required by the Companies Act of South Africa.

SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIESFor the year ended 30 June 2014

Reporting entity

Lodestone REIT Limited (the “company”) is a company domiciled in South Africa. The consolidated financial statements of the company for the years ended 30 June 2014 and 30 June 2013 comprise the company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the “group”).

Basis of preparation

Basis of measurement

The annual financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis, except for investment properties, derivative financial instruments and financial instruments classified as “financial instruments measured at fair value through profit or loss” which are carried at fair value.

Statements of compliance

The annual financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and its interpretations adopted by the Independent Accounting Standards Board and the requirements of the Companies Act of South Africa. The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those applied in the prior years with the exception of the adoption of new and revised standards which became effective during the year. The adoption of these standards did not have a material effect on the financial statements.

Functional and presentation currency

The annual financial statements are presented in Rand, which is also the functional currency of the group, rounded to its nearest thousand (R’000) unless otherwise indicated.

Use of estimates and judgements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making judgements about carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the year in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that year, or the year of the revision and future years if the revision affects both current and future years.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.1 Basis of consolidation

Subsidiaries

The consolidated annual financial statements incorporate the annual financial statements of the company and entities controlled by the company and its subsidiaries. Control is achieved when the company:

• has power over the investee;• is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and• has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.The company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if the facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

When the company has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, it has power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee unilaterally. The company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the company’s voting rights in an investee are sufficient to give it power, including:

• the size of the company’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders;

• potential voting rights held by the company, other vote holders or other parties;

111

• rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and• any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the company may have the current ability to direct

the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made.The group financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities, operating results and cash flows of the company and its subsidiaries. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included from the effective dates of acquisition and up to the effective dates of disposal.

The accounting policies of the subsidiaries are consistent with those of the holding company.

In the company’s separate financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Intragroup balances and any unrealised gains and losses arising from intragroup transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

1.2 Investment property

Investment property

Investment properties are those held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or both but not for sale in the ordinary course of business or for administration purposes.

The cost of investment property comprises the purchase price and directly attributable expenditure. Subsequent expenditure relating to investment property is capitalised when it is probable that there will be future economic benefits from the use of the asset. All other subsequent expenditure is recognised as an expense in the year in which it is incurred.

After initial recognition, investment properties are measured at fair value. Fair values are determined annually by external independent professional valuers with appropriate and recognised professional qualifications and recent experience in the location and category of property being valued. Valuations are done on the open market value basis and the valuers use either the discounted cash flow method or the capitalisation of net income method or a combination of the methods. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values are included in profit or loss for the year in which they arise. Unrealised gains, net of deferred tax, are transferred to a non-distributable reserve in the statements of changes in equity. Unrealised losses, net of deferred tax, are transferred to a non-distributable reserve to the extent that the decrease does not exceed the amount held in the non-distributable reserve.

Immediately prior to disposal of investment property, the investment property is revalued to the net proceeds and such revaluation is recognised in profit or loss in the year in which it occurs.

When the group redevelops an existing investment property for continued future use as investment property, the property remains classified as investment property. The investment property is not reclassified as investment property under development during the redevelopment.

Investment property under development

Property that is being constructed or developed for future use as investment property is classified as investment property under development and is measured at cost until construction or development is complete, at which time it is reclassified and subsequently accounted for as investment property. At the date of reclassification, the difference between fair value and cost is recorded in profit or loss for the year.

All costs directly associated with the purchase and construction of a property, and all subsequent capital expenditures for the development qualifying as acquisition costs, are capitalised.

Borrowing costs are capitalised to the extent that they are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. Capitalisation of borrowing costs commences when the activities to prepare the asset are in progress and expenditures and borrowing costs are being incurred. Capitalisation of borrowing costs may continue until the assets are substantially ready for their intended use. If the resulting carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised. The capitalisation rate is arrived at by reference to the actual rate payable on borrowings for development purposes or, with regard to that part of development cost financed out of general funds, the weighted average cost of borrowings.

Investment property held for sale

Immediately before classification as held for sale, the measurement of the investment property is brought up to date in accordance with applicable IFRS. Then, on initial classification as held for sale, the investment property continues to be recognised at fair value.

112

Leased property

Leases in terms of which the group assumes substantially all the risks of ownership are classified as finance leases. The property acquired by way of finance lease is stated at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease.

The property held under finance leases and leased out under operating leases is classified as investment property and stated at fair value.

Leases in terms of which the group does not assume substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases.

1.3 Financial instruments

Financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, investments in listed property securities, trade and other receivables, and trade and other payables.

Recognition

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value which, except for financial instruments measured at fair value through profit and loss, includes directly attributable transaction costs.

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial instruments are measured as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents – Carried at amortised cost.Investments – Carried at fair value, being the quoted closing price at the

statements of financial position date through profit or loss.Loans – Stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method net of

impairment losses.Trade and other receivables – Stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method net of

impairment losses.Amounts owing by group companies – Stated at amortised cost using the effective interest method net of

impairment losses.Trade and other payables – Carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.Amounts owing to group companies – Carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.Interest-bearing borrowings – Carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised where:

• the contractual rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired;• the group or company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset and either has transferred

substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. Where an existing liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in profit or loss.

Offset

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statements of financial position when the group and/or company has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts, and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

113

1.4 Derivative financial instruments

The group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposure to interest rate risks arising from financing activities. In accordance with its treasury policy, the group does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Derivatives used as hedges which do not qualify as such in terms of hedge accounting rules, are accounted for as trading instruments.

Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value, and changes therein are accounted for through profit or loss. Directly attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit and loss when incurred.

The fair value of interest rate swaps is the estimated amount that the group would receive or pay to terminate the swap at the statements of financial position date, taking into account current interest rates and the current creditworthiness of the swap counterparties.

1.5 Impairment

Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the group’s non-financial assets, other than investment property and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each statements of financial position date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

The recoverable amount is estimated at each statements of financial position date for goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life and intangible assets that are not yet available for use.

An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount and is recognised in profit or loss.

Impairment losses recognised are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the unit on a pro rata basis.

The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the greater of their fair value less cost to sell and their value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using the original effective pre-tax discount rate. For any asset that does not generate largely independent cash flows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, an impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount and there is an indication that the impairment loss no longer exists.

An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

Financial assets

A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence indicates that one or more events have had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset.

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. An impairment loss in respect of an available-for-sale financial asset is calculated by reference to its current fair value.

Individually significant financial assets are tested for impairment on an individual basis. The remaining financial assets are assessed collectively in companies that share similar credit characteristics.

All impairment losses are recognised in profit and loss.

An impairment loss is reversed if the subsequent increase in recoverable amount can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised.

114

1.6 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash balances, call deposits and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the group’s cash management, are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the cash flow statements.

1.7 Share capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. External costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown as a deduction in equity from the proceeds.

1.8 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the group has legal or constructive obligations arising from past events, from which outflows of economic benefits are probable, and where reliable estimates can be made of the amounts of the obligations. Where the effect of discounting is material, provisions are discounted. The discount rate is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

1.9 Related parties

Related parties in the case of the group include any shareholder who is able to exert a significant influence on the operating policies of the group. Directors, their close family members and any employee who is able to exert significant influence on the operating policies of the group are also considered to be related parties. In the case of the company, related parties would also include subsidiaries.

There are no restrictions on the ability of the group to realise its investment property. Investment property with a market value of R900.0 million (2013: R802.4 million) is mortgaged to secure borrowing facilities (refer to note 10).

Borrowing costs are capitalised at the weighted average cost of funding of the group, being 9.38% (2013: 9.24%) at year-end.

Investment properties were externally valued by Peter Parfitt of Quadrant Properties Proprietary Limited, a professional associated valuer (Dip Val MIV (SA)). The valuations were done on an open-market basis and with consideration to the future earnings potential and an appropriate capitalisation rate for each property. The fair value of all investment property determined is supported by market evidence.

116

The valuation of investment property is classified as a level 3 fair value measurement and there has been no transfer between levels in the current year (refer to note 21 for the estimates used and judgements made).

INDEPENDENT REPORTING ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT ON THE HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF LODESTONE

“The DirectorsLodestone REIT Limited3rd Floor, Rivonia VillageRivonia BoulevardRivonia2191

23 January 2015

Dear Sirs

INDEPENDENT REPORTING ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT ON THE HISTORICAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION INCLUDED IN THE PROSPECTUS

Introduction

We have audited the historical financial information of Lodestone REIT Limited (“the company”) in respect of the preceding two financial years ended 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2014, set out in Annexure 20. The historical financial information in respect of the period comprises the statement of financial position as at the period-end date, and the notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.

Directors’ responsibility for the historical financial information

The group’s directors are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the historical financial information in accordance with the requirements of the JSE Listings Requirements, and for such internal control as the directors determine is necessary to enable the preparation of historical financial information that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

The JSE Listings Requirements require the historical financial information in respect of each period to be prepared in accordance with the conceptual framework, the measurement and recognition requirements of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee and Financial Pronouncements as issued by Financial Reporting Standards Council and also, as a minimum, to be presented and contain the disclosures required by the JSE Listings Requirements.

Reporting accountants’ responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the historical financial information based on our audit.

We conducted our audit of the historical financial information in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). This standard requires that we comply with ethical requirements.

We plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the historical financial information is free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the historical financial information, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the group’s preparation of the historical financial information in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the group’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the historical financial information.

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

121

Opinion

In our opinion, the historical financial information in respect of the years ended 30 June 2013 and 30 June 2014 is prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the requirements of the JSE Listings Requirements and the International Financial Reporting Standards, as set out in the notes to the historical financial information.

Other information in the prospectus

As required by paragraph 8.53 of the JSE Listings Requirements, we have read the prospectus in which the historical financial information is contained, for the purpose of identifying whether there are material inconsistencies between the prospectus and the historical financial information which has been subject to audit. The prospectus is the responsibility of the directors. Based on reading the prospectus we have not identified material inconsistencies between this report and the historical financial information which has been subject to audit. However, we have not audited the prospectus and accordingly do not express an opinion on it.

Consent

We consent to the inclusion of this report, which will form part of the prospectus to the shareholders of Lodestone REIT Limited, to be issued on or about 11 February 2015, in the form and context in which it appears.

Annexure 22

LODESTONE GROUP ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BASIS OF PREPARATION

Basis of measurement

The consolidated and separate financial statements (“financial statements”) are prepared on the historical-cost basis, except for investment property, derivative financial instruments and financial instruments, designated as financial instruments at fair value through profit or loss, which are measured at fair value.

Statement of compliance

The annual financial statements have been consistently prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) and its interpretations adopted by the Independent Accounting Standards Board, the SAICA Financial Reporting Guides as issued by the Accounting Practices Committee and Financial Reporting Pronouncements as issued by the Financial Reporting Standards Council and the requirements of the Companies Act, 2008 (“the Act”) of South Africa.

FUNCTIONAL AND PRESENTATION CURRENCY

The financial statements are presented in rand, which is also the functional currency of the group, rounded to its nearest thousand (R’000) unless otherwise indicated.

USE OF ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under circumstances, the results of which form the basis of making judgements about carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.1 Basis of consolidation

Subsidiaries

The consolidated annual financial statements incorporate the annual financial statements of the company and entities controlled by the company and its subsidiaries. Control is achieved when the company:

– has power over the investee; – is exposed, or has rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and – has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.

The company reassesses whether or not it controls an investee if the facts and circumstances indicate that there are changes to one or more of the three elements of control listed above.

When the company has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, it has power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee unilaterally. The company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the company’s voting rights in an investee are sufficient to give it power, including:

– the size of the company’s holding of voting rights relative to the size and dispersion of holdings of the other vote holders;

– potential voting rights held by the company, other vote holders or other parties;

123

– rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and

– any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the company may have the current ability to direct the relevant activities at the time that decisions need to be made.

The group financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities, operating results and cash flows of the company and its subsidiaries. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the period are included from the effective dates of acquisition and up to the effective dates of disposal.

The accounting policies of the subsidiaries are consistent with those of the holding company.

In the company’s separate financial statements, investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

Investment in associates and joint ventures

An associate is an entity over which the group has significant influence. Significant influence is the power to participate in the financial and operating policy decisions of the investee but is not control or joint control over these policies.

A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the joint arrangement. Joint control is the contractually agreed sharing of control of an arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require unanimous consent of the parties sharing control.

Associates are accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method, an investment in an associate is initially recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate.

The results and assets and liabilities of associates and joint ventures are incorporated into these consolidated financial statements using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, an investment in an associate or a joint venture is initially recognised in the consolidated statement of financial position at cost and adjusted thereafter to recognise the group’s share of the profit or loss and other comprehensive income of the associate or joint venture. When the group’s share of losses of an associate or a joint venture exceeds the group’s interest in that associate or joint venture, the group discontinues recognising its share of further losses.

An investment in an associate or joint venture is accounted for using the equity method from the date on which the investee becomes an associate or a joint venture. On acquisition of the investment in an associate or joint venture, any excess of the cost of the investment over the group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities of the investee is recognised as goodwill, which is included within the carrying amount of the investment. Any excess of the group’s share of the net fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities over the cost of the investment, after reassessment, is recognised immediately in profit or loss in the period in which the investment is acquired.

The group discontinues the use of the equity method from the date when the investment ceases to be an associate or a joint venture, or when the investment is classified as held for sale.

Transactions eliminated on consolidation

Intragroup balances and any unrealised gains and losses arising from intragroup transactions are eliminated in preparing the consolidated financial statements.

1.2 Investment property

Investment property

Investment properties are those held either to earn rental income or for capital appreciation or both but not for sale in the ordinary course of business or for administration purposes.

The cost of investment property comprises the purchase price and directly attributable expenditure. Subsequent expenditure relating to investment property is capitalised when it is probable that there will be future economic benefits from the use of the asset. All other subsequent expenditure is recognised as an expense in the period in which it is incurred.

After initial recognition, investment properties are measured at fair value. Fair values are determined annually by external independent professional valuers with appropriate and recognised professional qualifications and recent

124

experience in the location and category of property being valued. Valuations are done on the open market value basis and the valuers use either the discounted cash flow method or the capitalisation of net income method or a combination of the methods. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair values are included in profit or loss for the period in which they arise. Unrealised gains, net of deferred tax, are transferred to a non-distributable reserve in the statement of changes in equity. Unrealised losses, net of deferred tax, are transferred to a non-distributable reserve to the extent that the decrease does not exceed the amount held in the non-distributable reserve.

Immediately prior to disposal of investment property the investment property is revalued to the net sales proceeds and such revaluation is recognised in profit or loss during the period in which it occurs.

When the group redevelops an existing investment property for continued future use as investment property, the property remains classified as investment property. The investment property is not reclassified as investment property under development during the redevelopment.

Investment property under development

Property that is being constructed or developed for future use as investment property is classified as investment property under development until construction or development is complete, at which time it is reclassified and subsequently accounted for as investment property. To the extent that developments can be accurately fair valued, developments are carried at fair value.

All costs directly associated with the purchase and construction of a property, and all subsequent capital expenditures for the development qualifying as acquisition costs, are capitalised.

Borrowing costs are capitalised to the extent that they are directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. Capitalisation of borrowing costs commences when the activities to prepare the asset are in progress and expenditures and borrowing costs are being incurred. Capitalisation of borrowing costs may continue until the assets are substantially ready for their intended use. If the resulting carrying amount of the asset exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised. The capitalisation rate is arrived at by reference to the actual rate payable on borrowings for development purposes or, with regard to that part of development cost financed out of general funds, the weighted average cost of borrowings.

Investment property held for sale

Immediately before classification as held for sale, the measurement of the investment property is brought up to date in accordance with applicable IFRS. Then, on initial classification as held for sale, the investment property continues to be recognised at fair value.

Leased property

Leases in terms of which the group assumes substantially all the risks of ownership are classified as finance leases. The property acquired by way of finance lease is stated at an amount equal to the lower of its fair value and the present value of the minimum lease payments at inception of the lease.

The property held under finance leases and leased out under operating leases is classified as investment property and stated at fair value.

Leases in terms of which the group does not assume substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as operating leases.

1.3 Financial instruments

Financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, investments in listed property securities, trade and other receivables, trade and other payables and interest-bearing borrowings.

Recognition

Financial instruments are initially measured at fair value which, except for financial instruments measured at fair value through profit and loss, include directly attributable transaction costs.

125

Subsequent to initial recognition, financial instruments are measured as follows:Cash and cash equivalents – Carried at amortised cost.Investments – Carried at fair value, being the quoted closing price at the statement of

financial position date, through profit and loss.Loans – Carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method net of

impairment losses.Trade and other receivables – Carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method net of

impairment losses.Trade and other payables – Carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.Interest-bearing borrowings – Carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition

A financial asset (or, where applicable, a part of a financial asset or part of a group of similar financial assets) is derecognised where:

– the contractual rights to receive cash flows from the asset have expired; and

– the group or company has transferred its rights to receive cash flows from the asset and either has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, or has neither transferred nor retained substantially all the risks and rewards of the asset, but has transferred control of the asset.

A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation under the liability is discharged or cancelled or expires. Where an existing liability is replaced by another from the same lender on substantially different terms, or the terms of an existing liability are substantially modified, such an exchange or modification is treated as a derecognition of the original liability and the recognition of a new liability, and the difference in the respective carrying amounts is recognised in profit or loss.

Offset

Financial assets and financial liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the statement of financial position when the group and/or company has a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts, and intends either to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

1.4 Derivative financial instruments

The group uses derivative financial instruments to hedge its exposure to interest rate risks arising from financing activities. In accordance with its treasury policy, the group does not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Derivatives used as hedges which do not qualify as such in terms of hedge accounting rules, are accounted for as trading instruments.

Derivative financial instruments are recognised initially at fair value. Subsequent to initial recognition, derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value, and changes therein are accounted for through profit or loss. Directly attributable transaction costs are recognised in profit and loss when incurred.

The fair value of derivatives is the estimated amount that the group would receive or pay to terminate the derivative at the statement of financial position date, taking into account the current relevant market conditions.

1.5 Impairment

Non-financial assets

The carrying amounts of the group’s non-financial assets, other than investment property and deferred tax assets, are reviewed at each statement of financial position date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated.

The recoverable amount is estimated at each statement of financial position date for goodwill and intangible assets that have an indefinite useful life and intangible assets that are not yet available for use.

An impairment loss is recognised whenever the carrying amount of an asset or its cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount and is recognised in profit or loss.

Impairment losses recognised are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the cash-generating unit and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the unit on a pro rata basis.

126

The recoverable amount of an asset or a cash-generating unit is the greater of their fair value less costs to sell and their value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using the original effective pre-tax discount rate. For any asset that does not generate largely independent cash flows, the recoverable amount is determined for the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs.

An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. In respect of other assets, an impairment loss is reversed if there has been a change in the estimates used to determine the recoverable amount and there is an indication that the impairment loss no longer exists.

An impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised.

Financial assets

A financial asset is considered to be impaired if objective evidence indicates that one or more events have had a negative effect on the estimated future cash flows of that asset.

An impairment loss in respect of a financial asset measured at amortised cost is calculated as the difference between its carrying amount and the present value of the estimated future cash flows discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset. An impairment loss in respect of an available-for-sale financial asset is calculated by reference to its current fair value.

Individually significant financial assets are tested for impairment on an individual basis. The remaining financial assets are assessed collectively in groups that share similar credit characteristics.

All impairment losses are recognised in profit and loss.

An impairment loss is reversed if the subsequent increase in recoverable amount can be related objectively to an event occurring after the impairment loss was recognised.

1.6 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash balances, call deposits and short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. Bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the group’s cash management, are included as a component of cash and cash equivalents for the purpose of the statement of cash flows.

1.7 Stated capital

Ordinary shares are classified as equity. External costs directly attributable to the issue of new shares are shown as a deduction in equity from the proceeds.

When share capital recognised as equity is repurchased, the amount of the consideration paid, including directly attributable costs, is recognised as a change in equity. Repurchased shares are classified as treasury shares and presented as a deduction from total equity.

1.8 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the group has legal or constructive obligations arising from past events, from which outflows of economic benefits are probable, and where reliable estimates can be made of the amounts of the obligations. Where the effect of discounting is material, provisions are discounted. The discount rate is a pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and, where appropriate, the risks specific to the liability.

1.9 Revenue

Revenue comprises rental revenue and recovery of expenses, excluding VAT. Rental revenue from investment property is recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives granted are recognised as an integral part of the total rental revenue over the lease period.

127

1.10 Expenses

Service costs and property operating expenses

Service costs for service contracts entered into and property operating expenses are expensed as incurred.

Lease payments

Payments made under operating leases are recognised in profit or loss on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Lease incentives received are recognised in profit or loss as an integral part of the total lease expense on a straight-line basis.

1.11 Finance income and finance costs

Finance income comprises interest received on funds invested and loans advanced and is recognised in profit or loss as it accrues, taking into account the effective yield on the asset.

Finance costs comprise interest payable on borrowings calculated using the effective interest method.

1.12 Dividend/distribution income

Dividend/distribution income is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income on the date the group’s or company’s right to receive payment is established, which in the case of quoted securities is usually the ex-dividend date.

1.13 Income tax

Income tax on the profit or loss for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Income tax is recognised in profit or loss except to the extent that it relates to items recognised directly in equity, in which case it is recognised in equity.

Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date, and any adjustment to tax payable in respect of previous years.

Deferred tax is provided using the statement of financial position method, based on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and their tax bases. The amount of deferred tax provided is based on the expected manner of realisation or settlement of the carrying amount of assets and liabilities, using tax rates enacted or substantively enacted at the statement of financial position date.

The following temporary differences are not provided for: goodwill not deductible for tax purposes; the initial recognition of assets or liabilities that affect neither accounting nor taxable profit; and differences relating to investments in subsidiaries to the extent that they will probably not reverse in the foreseeable future.

A deferred tax asset is recognised only to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the asset can be utilised. Deferred tax assets are reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that the related tax benefit will be realised.

1.14 Segmental reporting

A segment is a distinguishable component of the group that is engaged either in providing services (business segment), or in providing services within a particular economic environment (geographical segment), which is subject to risks and returns that are different from those of other segments. The group’s primary segment is based on business segments. There are no secondary segments. The business segments are determined based on the group’s management and internal reporting structure.

On a primary basis, the group operates in the following segments:

– Retail

– Industrial

The group will from time to time invest in/divest from certain primary segments, in which case segmental reporting will be adjusted to reflect only the relevant operating segments.

Segment results include revenue and expenses directly attributable to a segment and the relevant portion of group revenue and expenses that can be allocated on a reasonable basis to a segment. Segmental assets comprise those assets that are directly attributable to the segment or can be allocated to the segment on a reasonable basis.

128

1.15 Employee benefits

The cost of all short-term employee benefits is recognised during the period in which the employee renders the related service on an undiscounted basis. The accrual for employee entitlements to salaries and annual leave represent the amount which the group has a present obligation to pay as a result of employees’ services provided to the statement of financial position date. The group does not provide any retirement or post-retirement benefits.

1.16 Related parties

Related parties in the case of the group include any shareholder who is able to exert a significant influence on the operating policies of the group. Directors, their close family members and any employee who is able to exert significant influence on the operating policies of the group are also considered to be related parties. In the case of the company, related parties would also include subsidiaries.

1.17 Earnings per share

The group presents basic and diluted earnings per share. It also presents headline and diluted headline earnings per share.

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing profit for the year attributable to equity holders by the weighted average number of shares in issue during the year.

Headline earnings per share is calculated by dividing headline earnings by the weighted average number of shares in issue during the year.

Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing profit for the year attributable to equity holders by the weighted average number of shares in issue, adjusted for the potential dilutive impact of outstanding shareholder options.

Diluted headline earnings per share is calculated by dividing headline earnings by the weighted average number of shares in issue, adjusted for the potential dilutive impact of outstanding shareholder options.

2. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The group has exposure to the following risks from its use of financial instruments:

– credit risk – liquidity risk – market risk

This note presents information about the group’s exposure to each of the above risks, the group’s objectives, policies and processes for measuring and managing risk, and the group’s management of capital.

The board of directors has overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the group’s risk management framework. The board has delegated the responsibility for developing and monitoring the group’s risk management policies to the risk committee. The committee reports to the board of directors on its activities. The group risk committee oversees how management monitors compliance with the group’s risk management policies and procedures and reviews the adequacy of the risk management framework in relation to the risks faced by the group.

The group’s risk management policies are established to identify and analyse the risks faced by the group, to set appropriate risk limits and controls and to monitor risks and adherence to limits. Risk management policies and systems are reviewed regularly to reflect changes in market conditions and the group’s activities.

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the group if a tenant or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the group’s receivables from tenants, loans and cash and cash equivalents.

Trade and other receivables

The group’s exposure to credit risk is influenced mainly by the individual characteristics of each tenant. The group’s wide-spread customer base reduces credit risk.

The majority of rental revenue is derived from retail properties situated in Gauteng, KwaZulu-Natal, Limpopo and Mpumalanga but there is no concentration of credit risk.

129

Management has established a credit policy under which each new customer is analysed individually for creditworthiness before the group’s standard payment terms and conditions are offered. When available, the group’s review includes external ratings.

Trade and other receivables relate mainly to the group’s tenants and deposits with municipalities. In monitoring customer credit risk, customers are grouped according to their credit characteristics, including whether they are an individual or legal entity, industry, size of business and existence of previous financial difficulties.

The group establishes an allowance for impairment that represents its estimate of incurred losses in respect of trade and other receivables and investments. The main components of this allowance are a specific loss component that relates to individually significant exposures.

The group establishes an allowance for impairment that represents its estimate of specific losses to be incurred in the event of the borrowers’ inability to meet their commitments.

Investments

The group limits its exposure to credit risk by only investing in liquid securities and only with counterparties that are listed on a recognised stock exchange.

Cash and cash equivalents

The group’s exposure to credit risk is limited through the use of financial institutions of good standing for investment and cash handling purposes.

Sureties

The group’s policy is to provide sureties with regards to subsidiaries to the extent required in the normal course of business. Such sureties are provided to enable the subsidiaries to obtain the funding necessary to enable them to acquire investment property or investments.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that the group will not be able to meet its financial obligations comprising linked debentures, interest-bearing borrowings and trade and other payables, as they fall due. The group’s approach to managing liquidity is to ensure, as far as possible, that it always have sufficient liquidity to meet its liabilities when due, under both normal and stressed conditions, without incurring unacceptable losses or risking damage to the group’s reputation.

The group receives rental on a monthly basis and uses it to reduce its borrowings. Typically the group ensures that it has sufficient cash on demand to meet expected operational expenses, including the servicing of financial obligations. This excludes the potential impact of extreme circumstances that cannot reasonably be predicted, such as natural disasters.

Market risk

Market risk is the risk that changes in market prices, such as foreign exchange rates, interest rates and equity prices will affect the group’s income or the value of its holdings of financial instruments. The objective of market risk management is to manage and control market risk exposures within acceptable parameters, while optimising the return.

The group enters into derivatives and also incurs financial liabilities in order to manage market risks. All such transactions are carried out within the guidelines set by the risk committee.

Interest rate risk

The group is exposed to interest rate risk on its interest-bearing borrowings and cash and cash equivalents.

Interest-bearing borrowings and cash and cash equivalents bear interest at rates linked to prime/jibar. However, the group adopts a policy of ensuring that at least 50% of its exposure to interest rates on borrowings is hedged. This is achieved by entering into interest rate swaps and caps.

Equity price risk

The group is exposed to equity price risk on its investments. It limits its exposure to equity price risk by only investing in liquid securities that are listed on a recognised stock exchange and where the directors are in agreement with the business strategy implemented by such companies.

130

Fair values

A number of the group’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.

Investment property

An external, independent valuation company, having appropriate recognised professional qualifications and recent experience in the location and category of property being valued, values the group’s investment property portfolio every year. The fair values are based on market values, being the estimated amount for which a property could be exchanged on the date of the valuation between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction after proper marketing wherein the parties had each acted knowledgeably, prudently and without compulsion. In the absence of current prices in an active market, the valuations are prepared by considering the aggregate of the estimated cash flows expected to be received from renting out the property. A yield that reflects the specific risks inherent in the net cash flows is then applied to the net annual cash flows to arrive at the property valuation.

Valuations reflect, when appropriate: the type of tenants actually in occupation or responsible for meeting lease commitments or likely to be in occupation after letting vacant accommodation, and the market’s general perception of their creditworthiness; the allocation of maintenance and insurance responsibilities between the group and the lessee; and the remaining economic life of the property.

Investments

The fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss is determined by reference to their quoted closing price at the reporting date.

Trade and other receivables

The fair value of trade and other receivables is estimated as the present value of future cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date.

Derivatives

The fair value of derivates is based on broker quotes. Those quotes are tested for reasonableness by discounting estimated future cash flows based on the terms and maturity of each contract and using market interest rates for a similar instrument at the measurement date.

Non-derivative financial liabilities

Fair value, which is determined for disclosure purposes, is calculated based on the present value of future principal and interest cash flows, discounted at the market rate of interest at the reporting date.

Capital management

The group considers the equity attributable to equity holders as the permanent capital of the group.

The board’s policy is to maintain a strong capital base so as to maintain investor, creditor and market confidence and to sustain future development of the business. The board of directors also monitors the level of distributions to shareholders. The board seeks to maintain a balance between the higher returns that might be possible with higher levels of borrowings and the advantages and security afforded by a sound capital position. There were no changes in the group’s approach to capital management during the year. Neither the company nor any of its subsidiaries are subject to externally imposed capital requirements.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE STATEMENT

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE REVIEW

The board of directors (“the board”) endorses the code of corporate practices and conduct as set out in the King III report and confirms that the group is compliant with the provisions thereof. The board has been addressed by independent consultants to ensure that all directors are fully conversant with best practice and current thinking with regard to corporate governance. Each director will make arrangements to attend the Director’s Induction Programme in 2015 as soon as the 2015 timetable for the Director’s Induction Programme is available. Until the directors have completed the Director’s Induction Programme, the designated advisor will work closely with the directors to ensure compliance with the JSE Listings Requirements. A list of all King III principles and the extent of the company’s compliance therewith will be available on Lodestone’s website at www.lodestoneproperties.co.za.

1. COMPOSITION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The board comprises four executive directors and five independent non-executive directors. All directors serve for a maximum period of three years and are subject to retirement by rotation and re-election by members in general meeting. Board appointments are made in terms of the policy on nominations and appointments, such appointments are transparent and a matter for the board as a whole.

There are no fixed-term contracts for executive directors and the notice period for termination or resignation is one calendar month. There is no restraint of trade period for executive directors.

2. ROLE OF THE DIRECTORS

Ultimate control of the company rests with the board of directors while the executive management is responsible for the proper management of the company. To achieve this, the board is responsible for establishing the objectives of the company and setting a philosophy for investments, performance and ethical standards. Although quarterly board meetings are arranged every year, additional meetings are called should circumstances require it.

The chairman, with the assistance of the company secretary, will lead a formal review of the effectiveness of the board and its committees. Each director will complete a detailed evaluation questionnaire and an analysis of the findings will be presented to the board.

3. FUNCTIONS OF THE BOARD

The board acknowledges that it is responsible for ensuring the following functions as set out in the board charter:

• good corporate governance and implementation of the code of corporate practices and conduct as set out in the King III report;

• that the group performs at an acceptable level and that its affairs are conducted in a responsible and professional manner; and

• the board recognises its responsibilities to all stakeholders.

4. RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE BOARD

Although certain responsibilities are delegated to committees or management executives, the board acknowledges that it is not discharged from its obligations in regard to these matters.

The board acknowledges its responsibilities as set out in the board charter in the following areas:

• the adoption of strategic plans and ensuring that these plans are carried out by management;• monitoring of the operational performance of the business against predetermined budgets;• monitoring the performance of management at both operational and executive level;• ensuring that the group complies with all laws, regulations and codes of business practice; and• ensuring a clear division of responsibilities at board level to ensure a balance of power and authority in terms of

group policies.

135

5. INDEPENDENCE OF THE DIRECTORS

The board of directors’ independence from the executive management team is ensured by the following:

• separation of the roles of chairman and managing director, with the chairman being independent;• the board being dominated by independent non-executive directors;• the audit, investment, nomination, remuneration, risk and social and ethics committees having a majority of

independent directors;• non-executive directors not holding service contracts;• all directors having access to the advice and services of the company secretary; and• with prior agreement from the chairman, all directors are entitled to seek independent professional advice concerning

the affairs of the company at the company’s expense.

The following independent, non-executive directors chair the various sub-committees of the board:

• Audit Jacques van Wyk• Investment Ndhlabole Shongwe• Nomination Annalese Manickum• Remuneration Ndhlabole Shongwe• Risk Ndhlabole Shongwe• Social and ethics Craig Hallowes

The independence of the non-executive directors was assessed and all are considered independent in terms of the requirements of King III. Independence evaluations are done annually.

None of the directors have served for a term in excess of nine years.

6. DIRECTORS’ INTERESTS

A full list of directors’ interests is maintained and directors certify that the list is correct at each board meeting.

Directors recuse themselves from any discussion and decision on matters in which they have a material financial interest.

7. AUDIT COMMITTEE

The primary role of the audit committee is to ensure the integrity of financial reporting and the audit process. In pursuing these objectives, the audit committee oversees relations with the external auditors. The committee also assists the board in discharging its duties relating to the safeguarding of assets, the operation of adequate systems and internal control processes, overseeing the preparation of accurate financial reports and statements in compliance with all applicable legal requirements and accounting standards, ensuring compliance with good governance practices and nomination of external auditors. The role of the audit committee has been codified in the audit committee charter which has been approved by the board. This charter has been aligned with the requirements of King III and the Companies Act.

The audit committee comprises Jacques van Wyk (chairman), Craig Hallowes and Michael McNamara. The managing director, financial director and company secretary attend meetings as invitees. The committee members have unlimited access to all information, documents and explanations required in the discharge of their duties, as do the external auditors.

The board, in consultation with the audit committee chairman, makes appointments to the committee to fill vacancies. Members of the audit committee are subject to re-election by members in general meeting on an annual basis. The board has determined that the committee members have the skills and experience necessary to contribute meaningfully to the committee’s deliberations. In addition, the chairman has the requisite experience in accounting and financial management.

The audit committee has satisfied itself that no breakdown in accounting controls, procedures and systems has occurred during the year under review.

In fulfilling its responsibility of monitoring the integrity of financial reports to shareholders, the audit committee will review accounting principles, policies and practices adopted in the preparation of financial information and examine documentation relating to the annual integrated report and interim financial report. The audit committee will consider, on an annual basis, and satisfy itself of the appropriateness of the expertise and experience of the financial director, Inge Pick.

136

It is the function of the committee to review and make recommendations to the board regarding interim financial results and the integrated report prior to approval by the board.

The number of audit committee meetings held will be disclosed in the company’s integrated annual report for March 2015.

8. EXTERNAL AUDIT

A key factor that may impair auditors’ independence is a lack of control over non-audit services provided by the external auditors. In essence, the external auditor’s independence is deemed to be impaired if the auditors provide a service which:

• results in auditing of own work by the auditor;• results in the auditor acting as a manager or employee of the group;• puts the auditor in the role of advocate for the group; or• creates a mutuality of interest between the auditor and the group.

The company addresses this issue through three primary measures, namely:

• disclosure of the extent and nature of non-audit services;• the prohibition of selected services; and• prior approval by the audit committee of non-audit services.

Other safeguards encapsulated in the policy include:

• the external auditor is required to assess periodically, in their professional judgement, whether they are independent of the group;

• the audit committee ensures that the scope of the auditor’s work is sufficient and that the auditor is fairly remunerated; and

• the audit committee has primary responsibility for making recommendations to the board on the appointment, re- appointment and removal of the external auditor.

The committee reviews audit plans for external audits and the outcome of the work performed in executing these plans. They further ensure that items identified for action are followed up. The external auditor’s report annually to the audit committee to confirm that they are and have remained independent from the group during the year.

The audit committee considers information pertaining to the balance between fees for audit and non-audit work for the group and concludes that the nature and extent of non-audit fees do not present a threat to the external auditor’s independence. Furthermore, after reviewing a report from the external auditor on all their relationships with the company that might reasonably have a bearing on the external auditor’s independence and the audit engagement partner and staff ’s objectivity, and the related safeguards and procedures, the committee assesses whether the external auditor’s independence was impaired. The audit committee approves the external auditor’s terms of engagement, scope of work, the annual audit and the applicable levels of materiality.

The audit committee must satisfy itself as to the suitability of the external auditor for re-appointment for the ensuing year.

9. INTERNAL AUDIT

The company does not have a formalised internal audit department. This is primarily due to the fact that the majority of the property management functions are outsourced to external property managers who are subjected to annual external audits. The audit committee continually examines the appropriateness of utilising independent internal auditors to periodically review activities of the company and service providers.

10. ETHICAL PERFORMANCE

The board of directors forms the core of the values and ethics subscribed to by the company through its various bodies and committees. These values and ethics are sustained by the directors’ standing and reputation in the business community and their belief in free and fair dealings in utmost good faith and respect for laws and regulations. Lodestone has a code of ethics communicated to all staff. The code of ethics stipulates, among other things, that all stakeholders are expected to act in good faith, that bribery in any form is not tolerated, all conflicts of interest need to be declared and that compliance with all legislation is of utmost importance. The code of ethics is reviewed by the social and ethics committee on an annual basis.

137

11. INTERNAL FINANCIAL AND OPERATING CONTROLS

A framework of financial reporting, internal and operating controls has been established by the board to ensure reasonable assurance as to accurate and timeous reporting of business information, safeguarding of group assets, compliance with laws and regulations, financial information and general operation.

The board will review the effectiveness of the internal financial and operating controls, the process of risk management and the monitoring of legal governance compliance within the company.

12. INVESTMENT COMMITTEE

All acquisitions, disposals and capital expenditure are considered by the investment committee. The investment committee approves acquisitions, disposals and capital expenditure up to pre-set limits.

The investment committee comprises Ndhlabole Shongwe (chairman), Michael McNamara and Jason Cooper. All members of this committee have extensive experience and technical expertise in the property industry.

The investment committee’s responsibilities and duties are governed by a charter.

13. NOMINATION COMMITTEE

The nomination committee is mandated by the board to identify suitable candidates to be appointed to the board, identify suitable board candidates in order to fill vacancies, ensure there is a succession plan in place for key management, assess the independence of non-executive directors and assess the composition of the board sub-committees. The nomination committee recommends the individuals to the board for appointment.

The nomination committee must constitute only non-executive directors of whom the majority must be independent, and may be chaired by the chairman of the board. In this regard the nomination committee comprises: Annalese Manickum (chairman), Craig Hallowes and Ndhlabole Shongwe.

The nomination committee’s responsibilities and duties are governed by a charter. The nomination committee was appointed in November 2014 and have not yet met. The number of meetings held will be disclosed in the integrated annual report for March 2015.

14. REMUNERATION COMMITTEE

The remuneration committee is mandated by the board to authorise the remuneration and incentivisation of all employees, including executive directors. In addition, the remuneration committee recommends directors’ fees payable to non-executive directors and members of board sub-committees.

The remuneration committee comprises: Ndhlabole Shongwe (chairman), Craig Hallowes and Jason Cooper.

The remuneration committee’s responsibilities and duties are governed by a charter. The remuneration committee was appointed in November 2014 and have not yet met. The number of meetings held will be disclosed in the integrated annual report for March 2015.

15. RISK COMMITTEE

The risk committee is mandated by the board to ensure that a sound risk management system is maintained, to assist the board in discharging its duties relating to the safeguarding of assets and to ensure that the company has implemented an effective plan for risk management that will enhance the company’s ability to achieve its strategic objectives.

The risk committee comprises: Ndhlabole Shongwe (chairman), Jason Cooper and Jacques van Wyk.

The risk committee’s responsibilities and duties are governed by a charter.

In accordance with the REIT provisions of the JSE Listings Requirements, the risk management policy adopted by the board is in accordance with industry practice and Lodestone may not enter into any derivative transactions that are not in the normal course of Lodestone’s business.

16. SOCIAL AND ETHICS COMMITTEE

The social and ethics committee is a statutory committee whose focus is to monitor compliance with labour legislation as well as the corporate social responsibilities and corporate citizenship.

The social and ethics committee comprises Craig Hallowes (chairman), Jacques van Wyk and Gidon Trope.

The social and ethics committee’s responsibilities and duties are governed by a charter.

17. COMPANY SECRETARY

The board of directors have direct access to the company secretary, Leonie Gindan, who provides guidance and assistance in line with the requirements outlined in the Companies Act, King III and the Listings Requirements.

The company secretary will be subjected to an annual evaluation by the board wherein the board will satisfy itself as to the competence, qualifications and experience of the company secretary. This will be disclosed in the company’s integrated annual report for March 2015.

The company secretary, where necessary, arranges training on changing regulations and legislation and could involve the group’s sponsors, auditors or organisations such as the Institute of Directors. The company secretary is not a member of the board and an arms-length relationship exists between the board of directors and the company secretary.

The board is satisfied that an arms-length relationship is maintained between the company and the company secretary through the provisions of a service agreement entered into between the company and the company secretary which limits the duties of the company secretary to only those related to the corporate governance of the company and the administration of company documentation.

18. INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (“IT”) GOVERNANCE

The board is ultimately responsible for IT governance. The Lodestone IT function is outsourced to a third-party service provider and is governed by a service level agreement. Compliance with the service level agreement is monitored by management and the terms are reviewed on a regular basis. There is a dedicated member of the Lodestone management team who oversees the IT function, attends the executive committee meetings and reports to the managing director. The risks and controls over IT assets and data are considered by the risk committee.

19. DEALING IN SECURITIES BY THE DIRECTORS

Dealing in the company’s securities by directors and company officials is regulated and monitored as required by the JSE Listings Requirements. In addition, Lodestone maintains a closed period from the end of a financial period to the date of publication of the financial results.

LODESTONE GROUP RISK ANALYSIS

A number of factors affect the result of operations, financial condition and prospects of the group and, accordingly, an investment in ordinary shares is subject to a number of risks. This section describes the risk factors which are considered by the directors to be material in relation to the group. However, these should not be regarded as a complete and comprehensive statement of all potential risks and uncertainties. Additional risks not presently known to the company or that the directors currently consider to be immaterial may also adversely impact the group’s business operations. The business, growth prospects, financial condition and/or results of operations of the group could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. The trading price of ordinary shares could decline due to any of these risks and investors could lose part or all of their investment.

Investing in and holding shares in the company involves a number of risks. Prior to making an investment decision in respect of ordinary shares, prospective investors should carefully consider all the information in this document, including the following risk factors and consult with their professional advisers.

Key risk Business impact Mitigation of the risk

South Africa is experiencing significant increases in administered prices including electricity, rates and municipal levies.

Lodestone is bearing the increased cost of utilities that cannot be recovered from tenants. This reduces distributable income.

Energy saving technologies are being implemented where possible in order to reduce utility costs. Rates objections are lodged where deemed necessary.

The ability of tenants to absorb the increasing cost of occupancy is limited.

The increased cost of occupancy may result in more tenant business failures and legal action leading to higher vacancies and increased legal costs and bad debts.

Tenant arrears are closely monitored. Asset managers meet with tenants on a regular basis in order to mitigate legal action and bad debts.

Local authorities’ service delivery is deteriorating and many local authorities are not billing correctly. A number of local authorities no longer read electricity or water meters.

Lodestone is not being billed the correct utility amounts on a monthly basis.

Lodestone has installed its own meters and employed third party meter readers. Recoveries from tenants are based on this information rather than billings received from local authorities.

The difficult economic climate makes the letting of vacant space challenging.

Vacant space reduces rental income and expenses are incurred regardless of whether the property is tenanted. This results in less distributable income.

Asset managers meet with tenants on a regular basis to ensure that their concerns are addressed. Rentals are offered at market related rates and incentives are offered to brokers in order to let the vacancies. Buildings are well maintained.

Deterioration in the company’s credit profile, a decline in debt market conditions or a general rise in interest rates could impact the cost and availability of borrowings.

The cost of financing increases substantially reducing distributable income.

The group monitors its key financial ratios. Interest rate risk is mitigated through the use of interest rate swaps.

The underperformance of property managers may result in inaccurate recovery of revenue and incorrect reporting.

Inaccurate billing of tenants and reporting.

Compliance with service level agreements is monitored regularly. Management reviews monthly reports and meets with the property managers on a regular basis.

141

Key risk Business impact Mitigation of the risk

Inability to refinance debt at acceptable rates and over-exposure to a single finance institution.

Higher finance costs result in lower distributable income.

Management reviews the debt profile and facilities on a regular basis. Regular meetings are held with financiers.

Business continuity risk. Business interruption may have a severe impact on the operations of the group and may reduce distributable income.

Lodestone has a business continuity plan which includes the daily backup of data which is tested regularly. The majority of property management functions are outsourced to third parties.

Significant volume of leases expiring in a specific period.

Rental income may be eroded due to new leases or renewals at lower rentals than previously achieved. Vacancies may not be let timeously thus reducing distributable income.

Asset and property managers closely monitor lease expiries and begin negotiations with tenants well in advance of the expiry. All rentals are done at market-related rates. Lodestone actively markets vacant space.

Retention of key staff. Skilled and experienced staff may not be retained.

Key staff are remunerated in line with market and through ad hoc bonuses.

Destruction of assets. Buildings destroyed due to force majeure, fire, etc. and as a result income cannot be generated from tenants.

Insurance cover is carefully monitored to ensure that it is sufficient. The insurable amount is based on replacement valuations obtained from an independent valuer. Lodestone uses reputable underwriters with sufficient financial backing to sustain the cover paid for.

Physical deterioration of properties rendering them untenantable.

Properties that have physically deteriorated will be untenantable and result in decreased distributable earnings.

Asset managers perform regular property inspections as do the property managers.

Non-compliance with REIT requirements.

If Lodestone no longer qualifies as a REIT in terms of the JSE Listings requirements, it will incur tax liabilities and the JSE will not recognise and/or maintain its REIT status.

Management monitors compliance with the REIT requirements on an ongoing basis. External consultants, are used as an independent check to ensure that the requirements of the REIT legislation are met.

Non-compliance with laws and regulations.

The dynamic South African legislative environment and volume of new legislation being passed, particularly in respect of environmental laws and social responsibility, leads to a greater risk of non-compliance which may result in reputational damage and financial penalties.

Lodestone engages both in-house and external legal advisors. Training is provided where relevant new legislation is introduced. Management and the auditors monitor compliance with the legal requirements. Lodestone is a member of various industry organisations. The group’s employees regularly attend conferences and training specific to their area of responsibility within the group which would assist in the identification of the new and relevant legislation.
