(“Hyprop” or “the Company”)
This announcement is not for publication or distribution, directly or indirectly, in or into the United States or to any
U.S. person (as defined in Regulation S under the U.S. Securities Act (as defined below)). The distribution of this
announcement may be restricted by law in certain jurisdictions and persons into whose possession any document or
other information referred to herein comes, should inform themselves about and observe any such restriction. Any
failure to comply with these restrictions may constitute a violation of the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
ANNOUNCEMENT OF DIVIDEND REINVESTMENT PRICE AND CONFIRMATION OF FINALISATION INFORMATION
Shareholders are referred to the SENS announcement published on Thursday, 30 September 2021, as well as the circular
issued to Hyprop shareholders on the same date (“the circular”), advising Hyprop shareholders that a dividend of
336.52921 cents per share would be paid to shareholders, for the year ended 30 June 2021, from the Company’s distributable
earnings (“cash dividend”), and that shareholders will be entitled, in respect of all or part of their shareholdings, to elect to
reinvest the cash dividend in return for additional Hyprop shares through a dividend reinvestment plan (“share
reinvestment alternative”), failing which, they will receive the cash dividend of 336.52921 cents per share.
The Hyprop directors who hold interests in Hyprop shares have indicated that they will elect the share reinvestment
alternative in respect of such interests.
Reinvestment price
Shareholders are advised that the price per share, as determined on Monday, 11 October 2021, applicable to Hyprop
shareholders electing the share reinvestment alternative and recorded in the register on Friday, 22 October 2021 (i.e., the
“record date”) is R 25.50 per share (the “reinvestment price”). The reinvestment price equates to a discount to the traded
price less the cash dividend (the “clean price”) of Hyprop shares on the JSE prior to the finalisation date, as follows:
Measure Traded price (R) Clean price (R) Reinvestment
price % discount
10-day volume weighted average price 32.32615 28.96085 11.95%
15-day volume weighted average price 31.84935 28.48406 10.48%
The ratio of the number of shares to which a shareholder is entitled pursuant to the share reinvestment alternative for every
100 shares held on the record date is as follows:
June 2021 Distribution
South African resident shareholders exempt from dividends tax 13.19722
Non-resident shareholders subject to dividend tax at 20% 10.55778
Trading in the Strate environment does not permit fractions and fractional entitlements. Where a shareholder’s entitlement
to the shares in relation to the share reinvestment alternative, calculated with reference to the above share ratios, gives rise
to an entitlement to a fraction of a new share, such fraction will be rounded down to the nearest whole number with the
balance of the cash dividend being retained by the shareholders.
Dividend withholding tax (“dividend tax”) implications
Dividend tax implications for South African resident shareholders
Dividends received from a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) are exempt from dividend tax in the hands of South
African resident shareholders provided that the shareholders have provided the requisite declaration as to residence as
detailed in paragraph 5 of the circular. South African resident shareholders, who have submitted the requisite documentation
and are exempt from dividend tax, will accordingly receive a net dividend of 336.52921 cents per share in respect of the
cash dividend.
Dividend tax implications for non-resident shareholders
Dividends received from a REIT by a non-resident shareholder will be subject to dividend tax at 20%, unless the rate is
reduced in terms of any applicable agreement for the avoidance of double taxation (“DTA”) between South Africa and the
country of residence of the non-resident shareholder. A reduced dividend withholding tax rate in terms of the applicable
DTA may only be relied upon if the non-resident shareholder has provided the requisite documentation as detailed in
paragraph 5 of the circular. Non-resident shareholders who have submitted the requisite documentation, and assuming that
a dividend tax rate of 20% is applicable, will accordingly receive a net dividend of 269.22337 cents per share.
The cash dividend or share reinvestment alternative may have tax implications for resident as well as non-resident
shareholders. Shareholders are therefore encouraged to consult their tax and/or professional advisors should they be in any
doubt as to the appropriate action to take.
Illustrative example on the application of rounding and the impact of dividend tax

shareholders has been illustrated by way of the examples below.

Trading of Hyprop shares
Shareholders are advised that, in terms of the published timetable, the last date to trade to participate in the cash dividend
or the share reinvestment alternative is Tuesday, 19 October 2021 and the shares will trade ex-dividend on Wednesday,
20 October 2021.
Shareholders are further reminded that the default alternative is to retain the cash dividend of 336.52921 cents per
share that will be paid to those shareholders not electing to participate in the share reinvestment alternative. The
last day to submit the form of election to participate in the share reinvestment alternative is 12:00 (South African
time) on Friday, 22 October 2021. No action is required if you wish to receive the cash dividend.
Shareholders electing the share reinvestment alternative are once again alerted to the fact that the new shares will be listed
on LDT + 3 and that these new shares can only be traded on LDT + 3 being Friday, 22 October 2021, due to the fact that
settlement of the shares will be three days after the record date, being Wednesday, 27 October 2021, which differs from the
conventional one day after record date settlement process.
The salient dates, timetable and all other information relating to the dividend (including the tax implications) and share
reinvestment alternative (including the form of election) are disclosed in the circular and announcement published on
30 September 2021.
