VOLUNTARY BID BY HYPROP TO ACQUIRE A CONTROLLING INTEREST IN MAS P.L.C.
The publication, dispatch, distribution or dissemination of this announcement, outside of South Africa, may result in the applicability
of the laws of jurisdictions other than South African laws and may be subject to legal restrictions in such other jurisdictions.
Therefore, this announcement, notwithstanding its publication on the internet, is not designated for publication, dispatch,
distribution or dissemination in jurisdictions other than South Africa.
This announcement should be read in conjunction with the complete voluntary bid document ("Voluntary Bid Document") which
contains the full details of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid and is available on Hyprop's website at
https://www.hyprop.co.za/pdf/circulars/2025/voluntary-bid-document-for-the-proposed-mas-transaction.pdf.
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 On 26 May 2025, Hyprop published a SENS announcement communicating its intention to acquire a controlling
shareholding in MAS P.L.C. ("MAS") pursuant to a conditional voluntary bid process which would offer all MAS
shareholders the opportunity to sell their MAS shares in exchange for Hyprop shares and/or for cash, subject to the
fulfilment of certain conditions and limitations as detailed in paragraphs 3 and 4 respectively below ("Hyprop
Voluntary Bid"). MAS shareholders are hereby advised that Hyprop has resolved to implement the Hyprop Voluntary
Bid.
1.2 In terms of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid, Hyprop is offering MAS shareholders the option to sell their MAS shares,
wholly or partially, in exchange for (i) cash of R24.00 per MAS share ("Cash Consideration") and/or (ii) Hyprop
shares at a swap ratio of 0.42224 Hyprop share for every MAS share held ("Share Consideration") (collectively, the
"Voluntary Bid Consideration").
1.3 Whilst the cash alternative is subject to a maximum of R800 million ("Cash Consideration Cap") and Hyprop's
allocation discretion as further detailed in paragraph 4.1.5 below, acceptance of Hyprop's share alternative offer is
unlimited and would result in MAS shareholders receiving a highly liquid Hyprop share that could be sold in the
market for cash or retained and allow MAS shareholders to remain indirectly invested in MAS and benefit from an
unlock in value of MAS shares.
1.4 The Hyprop Voluntary Bid will remain open for acceptance by MAS shareholders until 11:00 UK time/12:00 SA time
on Friday, 25 July 2025, which date may be amended (any number of times) at the sole discretion of Hyprop which
amendment will be announced on SENS by Hyprop ("Closing Date"). If by the Closing Date Hyprop has received
the minimum level of acceptances of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid by MAS shareholders set out in paragraph 3.1.1.1,
Hyprop will proceed towards fulfilment of the remaining conditions precedent to the Hyprop Voluntary Bid set out
in paragraph 3.
1.5 If the Hyprop Voluntary Bid becomes unconditional and is implemented, Hyprop will acquire registered and
beneficial ownership of all the MAS shares tendered ("Voluntary Bid Shares") (free of encumbrances) by MAS
shareholders who accept the Hyprop Voluntary Bid ("Voluntary Bid Participants") on a date which is not more than
30 days after the Hyprop Voluntary Bid becomes unconditional ("Implementation Date"). Any changes to the
Implementation Date will be announced by Hyprop on SENS.
2. RATIONALE
2.1 Hyprop's Eastern European property portfolio, valued at c. EUR620 million as at 31 December 2024, comprises
wholly-owned properties situated in Croatia, Bulgaria and North Macedonia. The acquisition of a controlling interest
in MAS would align with Hyprop's stated diversification strategy to invest further in the Central and Eastern European
("CEE") region.
2.2 The Hyprop board has significant retail, property and CEE market experience which is augmented by Hyprop's strong
Eastern European regional management team's expertise and proven track record of creating/extracting value via asset
management initiatives. Hyprop considers itself well positioned to drive value creation through collaboration with the
MAS property and asset management teams.
2.3 Following implementation of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid, Hyprop intends to leverage its experience as an established,
well-managed REIT with a track record of good corporate governance, operational strength, access to funding and
treasury expertise, as well as its proven record of resolving complex shareholder/joint venture arrangements, to unlock
value for all MAS shareholders and to accelerate MAS' progress towards resuming regular dividend payments.
2.4 Hyprop is of the view that implementation of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid will deliver strategic and commercial benefits
to both Hyprop and MAS, including –
2.4.1 Acquiring a controlling interest in MAS would deliver on Hyprop's stated strategy to grow its CEE
exposure. The MAS portfolio comprises high-quality, income-generating retail properties. When viewed
together with Hyprop's existing assets, benefits for MAS and Hyprop would include scale, geographic
diversification and potential synergies in the CEE region.
2.4.2 With increased scale and geographic diversification in its investments across the CEE region, Hyprop and
MAS may improve access to capital and reduce group cost of capital over time.
2.4.3 Hyprop has strong governance credentials and is appropriately transparent in its reporting and disclosures.
As a result, Hyprop, as a controlling shareholder, will be able to address certain of the market and
shareholder perceptions that it considers to have weighed on the MAS share price.
2.5 Hyprop is offering MAS shareholders the option to sell their MAS shares, wholly or partially, in exchange for (i) cash
and/or (ii) Hyprop shares and remain indirectly invested in MAS. Whilst the cash alternative is subject to the Cash
Consideration Cap and Hyprop's allocation discretion, acceptance of Hyprop's share alternative offer to MAS
shareholders is unlimited and would result in receipt of a highly liquid Hyprop share that could be sold in the market
for cash or retained as an investment that will benefit from an unlock in value of MAS shares.
2.6 The Cash Consideration and Share Consideration in terms of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid have been determined with
reference to market prices for Hyprop and MAS shares since 23 May 2025, being the last business day prior to the
release of the initial announcement by Hyprop of its intention to make a voluntary bid to MAS shareholders, as set
out in paragraphs 4.1.7 and 4.1.8 below. The anticipated ongoing liquidity in the Hyprop shares post implementation
of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid will ensure that the Hyprop share price continues to reflect its fair market value.
2.7 Following implementation of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid, Hyprop anticipates further enhanced market liquidity for its
shares, such that Voluntary Bid Participants receiving the Share Consideration should expect to easily convert their
Share Consideration into cash should they wish (in contrast to the unknown liquidity of the instruments being
proposed for offer to MAS shareholders in terms of the intended bid by PK Investments Limited, as announced on
SENS by MAS on 16 May 2025 and updated on 28 May 2025 and 6 June 2025).
2.8 Voluntary Bid Participants that elect the Share Consideration stand to benefit from any future value creation in MAS,
as well as Hyprop, should they retain the Hyprop shares, on a basis that blends the anticipated value unlock in the
MAS shares with returns from Hyprop's existing investments and operations.
2.9 Hyprop's access to funding and sound treasury management expertise will allow Hyprop to assist MAS in managing
its liquidity and debt refinancing constraints, with a view to resuming dividend payments.
2.10 Assuming that, pursuant to implementation of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid, Hyprop acquires a majority of MAS shares
in issue (excluding treasury shares), its investment in MAS is expected to constitute c.33% of its net asset value on a
consolidated basis.
2.11 The Hyprop board believes that the combination of Hyprop's credentials and reputation, the pricing transparency of
the Hyprop Voluntary Bid and anticipated post transaction liquidity benefits to MAS shareholders who accept the
Hyprop Voluntary Bid, provide sound reasons for MAS shareholders to favourably consider the Hyprop Voluntary
Bid.

4. TERMS OF THE HYPROP VOLUNTARY BID
4.1 The Hyprop Voluntary Bid and the Voluntary Bid Consideration
4.1.1 Hyprop is making an offer to acquire from MAS shareholders all of their MAS shares in exchange for the
Voluntary Bid Consideration.
4.1.2 If the Hyprop Voluntary Bid becomes unconditional, Hyprop will acquire all Voluntary Bid Shares from
Voluntary Bid Participants on the Implementation Date.
4.1.3 Each MAS shareholder shall be entitled to:
4.1.3.1 accept the Hyprop Voluntary Bid in respect of all or a portion of their MAS shares; and
4.1.3.2 in respect of the Voluntary Bid Shares, elect to receive either the Cash Consideration or the
Share Consideration in such proportions as the respective MAS shareholder may determine,
subject to Hyprop's allocation discretion.
4.1.4 The Cash Consideration available for acquisition of MAS shares pursuant to acceptances of the cash
alternative is limited to the Cash Consideration Cap. There is no limit on acceptances of the share
alternative.
4.1.5 Cash alternative elections in excess of the Cash Consideration Cap
4.1.5.1 If the total elections by Voluntary Bid Participants to receive the Cash Consideration exceed
the Cash Consideration Cap, each Voluntary Bid Participant who has elected to receive the
Cash Consideration (whether in full or in part) will have their election scaled back on an
equitable basis, as determined by Hyprop in its discretion having regard to Hyprop's objective
of acquiring a controlling interest in MAS ("Cash Alternative Scale Back").
4.1.5.2 To the extent that a Voluntary Bid Participant's election to receive the Cash Consideration is
scaled back pursuant to the Cash Alternative Scale Back, the Voluntary Bid Participant will
receive Hyprop shares in respect of the scaled back portion unless the Voluntary Bid
Participant elects to retain its MAS shares in respect of the scaled back portion. Voluntary Bid
Participants may expect that an election to retain MAS shares in respect of the scaled back
portion under the cash alternative may result in a lower allocation of Cash Consideration.
4.1.6 Voluntary Bid Participants must indicate their elections in favour of the cash alternative and/or the share
alternative in respect of their Voluntary Bid Shares. MAS shareholders are referred to the Voluntary Bid
Document, which sets out the detailed action required of them in order to make their election.
4.1.7 The Cash Consideration of R24.00 per MAS share:
4.1.7.1 was determined with reference to the prices at which MAS shares have traded from
26 May 2025, being the first business day after the release of the initial announcement by
Hyprop of its intention to make a voluntary bid to MAS shareholders, to 14 July 2025; and
4.1.7.2 represents a premium of 32.60% to the 30-day VWAP of R18.10 per MAS share for the 30-
day trading period ending on 23 May 2025, being the last business day prior to the release of
the initial announcement by Hyprop of its intention to make a voluntary bid to MAS
shareholders.
4.1.8 The Share Consideration of 0.42224 Hyprop share for one MAS share:
4.1.8.1 was determined based on the ratio of the Hyprop share price and the MAS share price on
23 May 2025, being the last business day prior to the release of the initial announcement by
Hyprop of its intention to make a voluntary bid to MAS shareholders; and
4.1.8.2 based on the current Hyprop share price, represents a premium of 3.38% to the 30-day VWAP
of R18.10 per MAS share for the 30-day trading period ending on 23 May 2025, being the last
business day prior to the release of the initial announcement by Hyprop of its intention to make
a voluntary bid to MAS shareholders.
4.2 Funding of the Voluntary Bid Consideration
4.2.1 If the Hyprop Voluntary Bid becomes otherwise unconditional, Hyprop:
4.2.1.1 will issue new Hyprop shares to settle the Share Consideration; and
4.2.1.2 may issue new Hyprop shares pursuant to the VCP to raise funds to fund the Cash
Consideration.
4.2.2 To support the cash portion of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid, Hyprop raised a total of R808 million via an
accelerated book build, as announced on SENS by Hyprop on 26 May 2025 and 2 June 2025, and may
utilise its own additional available cash resources and borrowing facilities as it deems appropriate in its
sole discretion.
4.3 Variation of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid
Hyprop reserves its right to amend the Cash Consideration and the Cash Consideration Cap and/or amend the Share
Consideration at any time prior to the Closing Date. Any changes to the Voluntary Bid Consideration will only be
made while the Hyprop Voluntary Bid is open. Should there be any changes to the Voluntary Bid Consideration,
Hyprop will announce the same on SENS and advise MAS shareholders what they should do if they have already
submitted their elections. Once the Hyprop Voluntary Bid closes, there will be no changes to the Voluntary Bid
Consideration.
4.4 Clean-out distribution
In order to ensure equitable treatment of its existing shareholders, Hyprop intends effecting a cash distribution of
distributable income accrued (having regard to Hyprop's dividend policy) in respect of the period commencing on the
day following the end of the most recent reporting period (being 30 June 2025 at the date of issue of this
announcement) and ending on the last day of the month preceding the month in which the Implementation Date falls.
4.5 MAS shareholder rights
4.5.1 MAS shareholders who accept the Hyprop Voluntary Bid will remain the legal owners of their MAS shares
and retain their voting rights and other shareholder rights related thereto until the Implementation Date.
4.5.2 Notwithstanding the retention of ownership and voting rights in respect of the Voluntary Bid Shares by the
Voluntary Bid Participant, Voluntary Bid Participants should note that they may not trade any MAS shares
that are subject to the Hyprop Voluntary Bid from the date of acceptance thereof until the Implementation
Date or termination of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid.
4.5.3 MAS shareholders electing the Share Consideration are alerted to the fact that the Hyprop shares will be
listed on the Implementation Date and that these new Hyprop shares can only be traded from the
Implementation Date.
4.5.4 Dematerialised MAS shareholders should note that, if Hyprop receives the minimum level of acceptances
of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid by MAS shareholders set out in paragraph 3.1.1.1 above, all Voluntary Bid
Shares tendered will be held in escrow by the SA transfer secretaries and therefore cannot be sold,
transferred, or otherwise disposed of other than in accordance with the Hyprop Voluntary Bid.
Accordingly, by your acceptance of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid, you hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
authorise your CSDP and/or broker, as the case may be, to transfer all of your MAS shares tendered in
respect of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid, to the SA transfer secretaries to be held in escrow in dematerialised
format, on your behalf, until the Implementation Date or the termination of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid. If
the Hyprop Voluntary Bid becomes unconditional, by your acceptance of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid, you
hereby authorise the SA transfer secretaries, to transfer the Voluntary Bid Shares held by you, to Hyprop
in exchange for the Voluntary Bid Consideration which you elected, failing which all the MAS shares
tendered by you in respect of the Hyprop Voluntary Bid will be returned to your CSDP and/or broker by
the SA transfer secretaries.
