Limited (“Opco”), is the only property asset manager listed on

the JSE Limited. Madison is listed in the Real Estate Holdings and

Development sub-sector of the main board and is represented by

the JSE code “MDN”.

Madison is structured in the same way as a listed property loan

stock company – with linked units each comprising one share

debenture in Opco.

Madison has BEE participation from KwaZulu-Natal based

investment company Clearwater Capital (Proprietary) Limited

(“Clearwater”) which owns 9,6% of the total number of linked units

in issue.

The asset management of three leading listed property funds –

ApexHi Properties Limited (“ApexHi”), Hyprop Investments Limited

(“Hyprop”) and Redefine Income Fund Limited (“Redefine”)

- contributes 68% of Madison’s income. In addition to its asset

management income, Madison earns development fees, leasing

commissions and transaction and consulting fees.

Madison distributes 100% of its net operating income in the form

of interest on debentures, calculated on the basis set out in the

Debenture Trust Deed, subject to a maximum annual interest rate

of prime plus 10% on the face value of each debenture. Madison

declares distributions for the six month periods to 30 June and

31 December of each financial year.

Executive directors’ review

IntroductionMadison’s sound business principles and the strong underlying

property fundamentals experienced during the 2007 year

generated robust performance for the listed property funds under

Madison’s management. ApexHi, Hyprop and Redefine were

ranked within the top quartile of the sector in terms of income

growth, while Madison reported excellent distribution growth,

30% higher than its annualised maiden distribution for the 2006

financial year.

OverviewSignificant factors which influenced the listed property sector

in 2007 included the introduction of the National Credit Act as

well as interest rate increases of 200 basis points following the

200 basis point increases in 2006. This resulted in reduced

consumer spending and increased inflation. Infrastructure spend

by government, on projects such as the Gautrain and the 2010

Fifa World Cup, placed a strain on capital project resources and

increased pressure on the viability of new property developments.

On the positive side, strong demand by tenants, coupled with a

shortage in the supply of space, contributed to increased rentals.

Market volatility resulted in a yield shift and a consequential

decrease in listed property unit prices. Opportunities for

acquisitions and corporate action are emerging.

The electricity crisis being experienced in South Africa, combined

with other economic pressures will impact on turnovers of tenants,

restraining rather than contracting growth. Initiatives are being

implemented to ensure electricity backup in all the retail and

commercial properties asset managed by Madison. The availability

of power has been confirmed for the majority of developments

project managed by Madison.

The National Treasury’s publication of a discussion paper entitled

“Reforming the Listed Property Investment Sector” has formally

set the wheels in motion for a best-of-breed REIT structure to

be introduced in South Africa. In principle, Madison supports the

representations which have been made by the sector on the draft

paper and will be monitoring the progress of this process.

Financial ResultsMadison’s total distribution of 76 cents per linked unit for the year

ended 31 December 2007 was 30% higher than the annualised

maiden distribution of 39 cents per linked unit for 2006. The

total capital and income return to Madison’s linked unitholders

amounted to 53% for the year.

Management fees earned by Madison are based on enterprise

values, which comprise market capitalisation plus debt of each

fund. In a volatile market, in which linked unit prices fluctuate,

the debt, which comprises 20% of combined enterprise value, is

a stabilising factor. Madison’s development and leasing divisions

made a meaningful contribution to the positive performance

during the year.

Asset management

Asset management objectives are usually straightforward —

increase income, let vacant space, control expenses and add

value – yet the means of achieving these requires innovation

and precise timing with implementation in unison with the

property cycle at any point in time. With rental escalations of

8% per annum on average across South Africa’s commercial

property sectors, only effective asset management can ensure

income growth in excess of this figure. This has been achieved by

Madison for each of its funds under management.

Strict investment criteria, vital to the successful performance

of any property company, have been applied in order to ensure

the acquisition of quality property assets at competitive prices.

Effective interest rate management has been achieved and Madison

has successfully implemented BEE transactions for all of its listed

funds.

One of the advantages of outsourced asset management is access

to services and expertise that a single fund would otherwise not

be able to attract or afford. In this regard, Madison’s funds under

management benefit from some of the leading property minds

in South Africa. Included amongst these is Mike Lewin who has

a wealth of knowledge and experience gained from 22 years in

the retail sector, 18 as property executive of Edcon. In his position

as Madison group retail director, Mike will enhance Madison’s

retail asset management team and his responsibilities will include

overseeing and adding value to existing retail properties and new

developments for ApexHi, Hyprop and Redefine.

Corovest Fund Managers Limited (“Corovest”) Madison purchased a 40% interest in Corovest (registered in the

British Virgin Isles), the management company of CIREF Limited,

for R100,15 million, effective 1 July 2007. Madison issued

11 128 000 linked units, at a price of 875 cents per unit, to

fund the acquisition of its interest in Corovest. The balance of

the purchase price of R2,78 million was paid in cash. Income

from Madison’s strategic investment in Corovest is expected

to contribute significantly to future income based on expected

growth in CIREF by way of acquisitions and developments in the

UK and Europe. CIREF is listed on the London Stock Exchange AIM

and has a market capitalisation of £107 million.

Property Index Tracker Managers (“PropTrax”) Madison acquired 50% of PropTrax which is the manager of

the Property Index Tracker Collective Investment Scheme in

Securities, an exchange traded fund which tracks the performance

of the FTSE/JSE SAPY index. PropTrax was listed on the

JSE Limited on 25 September 2007. Development Madison’s development teams, based in Johannesburg and

Cape Town, are managed and staffed by skilled and experienced

executives who are responsible for overseeing developments

undertaken on behalf of ApexHi, Hyprop and Redefine, and New

York-based international group, Lehman Brothers.

25 projects valued at R3 billion are currently being undertaken, of

which R1,5 billion is scheduled for completion during 2008.

Leasing Madison’s leasing division interfaces with property brokers in

South Africa and directly with prospective tenants to ensure the

successful leasing of vacant space in existing developments, new

developments and expansions in properties owned by ApexHi and

Redefine.

Prospects ApexHi, Hyprop and Redefine will continue to expand their

portfolios which should enhance their enterprise values and

consequently increase the asset management fees payable

to Madison. The Corovest acquisition is expected to become

earnings enhancing during the 2008 financial year. The increasing

contribution from the development and leasing divisions will

enhance Madison’s earnings.

The economic and market volatility which began in 2007 and

which is expected to continue during 2008 could provide Madison

with potential for corporate action and its managed funds with

opportunities to expand their property portfolios.

Subject to market conditions remaining stable and based on

current unit prices of the managed funds, the board anticipates

that the total distribution for the year ending 31 December 2008

will increase by between 10% and 12% compared to 2007.

Acknowledgements

The results for the year reflect the efforts and commitment

of the entire Madison team, including management and staff

directly responsible for the asset management of ApexHi, Hyprop

and Redefine. Our sincere appreciation is extended to our

management and staff, bankers, associates, corporate advisors

and to our co-directors for their wise counsel. We would also like

to thank our linked unitholders for their continuing confidence.

Corporate governance

IntroductionThe directors of Madison are committed to the Code of Corporate

Practice and Conduct as set out in the King II Report.

The directors recognise the need to conduct the enterprise with

integrity and accountability in accordance with generally accepted

corporate practices which includes timely and relevant reporting

to unitholders and other stakeholders.

Board of directorsThe constitution of the board of directors is set out on pages 4

and 5 of this report. The board meets quarterly and consists of six

directors including the chairman. Three directors are

non-executive, with two of them independent of management

and free from any relationship that could materially interfere

with the execution of their independent judgement. The business

experience of the non-executive directors enables them to

critically evaluate and determine strategy.

The board operates in accordance with a formal board charter

which defines its roles and responsibilities and deals with procedural

matters including board meetings, composition and remuneration.

Dealing in the company’s linked unitsDirectors must disclose to the Chairman any intention to buy or

sell linked units in Madison whether directly or indirectly. Directors

and any employee of the company who become aware of sensitive

financial information cannot directly or indirectly deal in the

company’s linked units until the information is in the public domain.

Audit and Risk CommitteeThe audit and risk committee comprises an independent

non-executive director and a non-executive director both of

whom meet the requirements as set out in the King Report and

applicable legislation. WE Cesman, an executive director, was a

member of the audit and risk committee during the year under

review but has resigned in accordance with the requirements of

the recently enacted Corporate Laws Amendment Act.

The chief financial officer and external auditors attend the meetings

by invitation. The committee meets at least three times a year and

has its own written terms of reference. Its activities include the

review of the annual financial statements prior to presentation to

the board, the review of internal control systems with reference

to the findings of the external auditors and considering any

changes in accounting policies, as well as the review of any

material audit recommendations. The committee sets the principles

for recommending the use of the external auditors for non-audit

services.

Remuneration CommitteeThe committee determines, agrees and develops the company’s

general policy on non-executive directors’ remuneration,

determines the criteria for the review of the executive directors’

performance in discharging their functions and responsibilities

and reviews the terms and conditions of executive directors’

remuneration. In addition, the committee reviews the

remuneration of all management and staff employed

by Madison.

The committee comprises two independent non-executive

directors and an executive director. The committee members

are not involved in determining their own remuneration packages.

Risk ManagementThe Board is responsible for effective risk management which

is crucial to Madison’s operations.

Management, as well as the audit and risk committee, is

involved in a continuous process of developing and enhancing

comprehensive systems for risk identification and management.

The objectives of the risk management process are to:

• determine the company’s risk tolerance;

• identify all material risks to which the company is exposed;

• monitor and assess the identified risks; and

• manage or transfer any risk that exceeds the level

of acceptable risk, or could potentially impact the

company’s operations.

Employment EquityMadison is committed to the development and training of its

employees and to the principle of equal opportunity employment.

EthicsThe directors, management and staff are required to observe the

highest ethical standards as set out in the formal code of conduct,

thereby ensuring that business practices are conducted in a

manner which, in all circumstances, is beyond reproach.

Communication and investor relationsIt is the policy of Madison to disclose all relevant and

appropriate information in the annual report and through

other communication channels to give all unitholders, potential

unitholders and other stakeholders access to relevant information.

Madison regularly meets with institutional shareholders,

investment analysts and media representatives.

Directors’ responsibility and approval

Statement of responsibility by the board of directorsThe financial statements presented on pages 30 to 53 have been

prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting

Standards. The directors are responsible for selecting and

adopting sound accounting practices and for maintaining a

system of internal control that, amongst other things, will ensure

the preparation, integrity and fair presentation of the financial

statements and other financial information included in this

report.

The going concern basis has been adopted in preparing the

financial statements. The directors have no reason to believe

that the company or the group will not be a going concern in

the foreseeable future based on forecasts and available cash

resources. The financial statements support the viability of

the company and the group.

The financial statements have been audited by the independent

auditors, PKF (Jhb) Inc., who were given unrestricted access

to all financial records and related data, including minutes of

all meetings of the board of directors and committees of the

board. The directors believe that all representations made to the

independent auditors during their audit are valid and appropriate.

The unqualified audit report of PKF (Jhb) Inc. is presented on

page 29.

Approval of annual financial statementsThe annual financial statements as set out on pages 30 to 53 for

the year ended 31 December 2007 were approved by the board of

directors on 19 February 2008 and are signed on their behalf by:

Harish Mehta Wolf Cesman Chairman Executive director

Declaration by company secretaryIn terms of Section 268G(d) of the Companies Act, 1973, as

amended, we hereby certify that, to the best of our knowledge and

belief, the company has lodged with the Registrar of Companies,

for the financial year ended 31 December 2007, all such returns as

are required of a public company in terms of this act and that all

such returns are true, correct and up to date.

Report on the financial statementsWe have audited the accompanying annual financial statements

and group annual financial statements of Madison Property Fund

Managers Holdings Limited set out on pages 30 to 53, which

comprise the directors report, the balance sheets as at

31 December 2007 and the income statements, statements of

changes in equity and cash flow statements for the year then

ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other

explanatory notes.

Management’s responsibility for the financial statementsManagement is responsible for the preparation and fair

presentation of these financial statements in accordance with

International Financial Reporting Standards and the Companies

Act of South Africa. This responsibility includes: designing,

implementing and maintaining internal control relevant to the

preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that

are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or

error; selecting and applying appropriate accounting policies;

and making accounting estimates that are reasonable in the

circumstances.

Auditor’s responsibilityOur responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial

statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in

accordance with International Standards on Auditing. Those

standards require that we comply with ethical requirements

and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance

whether the financial statements are 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 financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making

those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control

relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the

financial statements 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 entity’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 financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient

and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

OpinionIn our opinion, the annual financial statements and group annual

financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the

financial position of Madison Property Fund Managers Holdings

Limited as of 31 December 2007, and of its financial performance

and its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with

For the year ended 31 December 2007The directors have pleasure in submitting their report which forms

part of the audited annual financial statements of the company

and the group for the year ended 31 December 2007.

Nature of businessMadison is a property asset management company which derives

its income predominantly from the asset management of three

leading listed property funds – ApexHi Properties Limited, Hyprop

Investments Limited and Redefine Income Fund Limited. Madison

also earns development fees, leasing commissions and transaction

and consulting fees.

Share and debenture capitalThe authorised share capital is R1 000 divided into 800 000 000

ordinary shares of 0.000125 cents, each of which is linked to

one unsecured variable rate subordinated debenture in Madison

Property Fund Managers Limited of 499 cents each.

The ordinary shares and debentures trade as a linked unit on the

JSE. In terms of the Debenture Trust Deed the interest payable

on the debenture component of the linked unit is equivalent to

the net operating income for the period concerned divided by the

number of debentures in issue on the record date.

During the year, 6 500 000 linked units were issued as sign on

incentives to MN Flax and JA Finn who were appointed during

the latter part of 2006. These units were issued at 400 cents

per linked unit. A further 11 128 000 linked units were issued

at a premium of 376 cents per linked to fund the acquisition of

Madison’s 40% interest in Corovest Fund Managers Limited.

At the year end, the net asset value per linked unit amounted to

189 cents (2006: 160 cents)

Interest distributionMadison declared distribution number 2 of 36.0 cents per linked

unit for the six months ended 30 June 2007. Distribution number 3

of 40.0 cents per linked unit has been declared for the six months

ended 31 December 2007.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BASIS OF PREPARATION

The company was incorporated in and under the laws of the

Republic of South Africa. The financial statements are presented

in South African Rand as this is the company’s functional and

presentation currency.

The consolidated annual financial statements are presented in

accordance with and comply with International Financial Reporting

Standards (IFRS) and the Companies Act of South Africa. The

financial statements, which are prepared on the historical cost

basis, as modified by the revaluation of financial assets at fair

value through profit and loss, incorporate the following accounting

policies which are consistent with those applied in the previous year.

The preparation of financial statements necessitates the use of

estimates, assumptions and judgements. These estimates and

assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities

at the balance sheet date as well as affecting the reported

income and expense for the year. Refer to note 4 for details of

assumptions, estimates and judgements used.

1.1 Financial instruments

Financial instruments are contracts that give rise to a financial

asset of one entity, and a financial liability or equity instrument of

another entity. Financial instruments carried on the balance sheet

include listed securities, receivables, cash and cash equivalents,

debentures, financial liabilities and payables.

These instruments are measured as set out below.

1.1.1 Receivables

Receivables are measured at amortised cost less provision

for impairment. A provision for impairment is established

when there is objective evidence that the group will not be

able to collect all amounts according to the original terms of

receivables.

1.1.2 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash balances and call

deposits and are carried in the balance sheet at amortised

cost. Cash equivalents are 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 fair value.

1.1.3 Debentures

Debentures are considered to be a held-to-maturity financial

instrument and are recognised at amortised cost using the

effective interest rate method.

1.1.4 Other financial liabilities

Interest bearing liabilities, other than debentures, are recog-

nised at amortised cost using the effective interest rate

method.

1.2 Basis of consolidation

1.2.1 Business combinations

The acquisition of subsidiaries is accounted for using the

purchase method. The cost of an acquisition is measured

at the aggregate of the fair values of assets acquired,

liabilities incurred or assumed and equity instruments issued

at the date of exchange plus any costs attributable to the

acquisition

1.2.2 Interests in subsidiaries

Subsidiaries are entities over which the company has the

power to govern the financial and operating policies so as

to obtain benefits from its activities. In assessing control,

potential voting rights which are presently exercisable or

convertible are taken into account.

In the separate financial statements of the company,

investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost and

adjusted for impairment if applicable. The consolidated

financial statements incorporate the assets, liabilities,

income, expenses and cash flows of the group and all entities

controlled by the group. The results of subsidiaries acquired

or disposed of during the year are included in the consoli-

dated income statement from the date of acquisition or up to

the date of disposal. Intercompany transactions and balances

between group companies are eliminated on consolidation.

1.2.3 Interests in associates

Associates are companies over which the group has

significant influence but not control.

In the separate financial statements of the company,

investments in associates are accounted for at cost and

adjusted for impairment if applicable.

Associates are accounted for in the consolidated financial

statements using the equity method of accounting. Under

this method, the interest in the associate is initially

recognised at cost. The group’s share of post acquisition

profits or losses is recognised in the income statement. The

interest in the associate is adjusted for post acquisition

profits or losses, distributions received and other

adjustments to the carrying amount.

The group’s accounting policy for associates with a

September financial year end is to account for a three

month lag period in reporting their results. Any significant

transactions that occur between October and the group’s

December year end are taken into account.

1.3 Property plant and equipment

Property, plant and equipment are reflected at cost less

accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Depreciation is

charged on the straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of

the assets as follows:

Motor vehicles 4 years

Computer equipment 3 years

Computer software 3 years

Furniture and fittings 3 years

Office equipment 4 years

The profit or loss on the disposal or retirement of an asset is

determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and

the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised as income or

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2007

Page 39: “Innovation is the specific instrument of entrepreneurship ... · PDF fileBSc, MBA Chairman of Clearwater Capital, the strategic BEE ... Michael Flax (43) Executive director B Com,

37

expense. Carrying amounts of property, plant and equipment are

assessed annually and are reduced to their recoverable amounts

where this is lower than the carrying amount. The expected cash

flows attributable to such assets are considered in determining the

recoverable amount.

1.4 Intangible assets

Intangible assets are initially measured at cost if acquired

separately or at fair value if acquired as part of a business

combination. Intangible assets are amortised over their estimated

useful life on a straight line basis. The estimated useful lives and

residual values are reviewed annually. Impairment losses are

recognised as an expense in the income statement.

1.5 Goodwill

Goodwill represents the future economic benefits arising from

assets that are not capable of being individually identified and

separately recognised in a business combination. It is determined

as the excess of the cost of the acquisition over the group’s

interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and

contingent liabilities of the subsidiary or associate at the date of

acquisition.

Goodwill is allocated to cash generating units for the purpose

of impairment testing. Impairment is determined by assessing

the recoverable amount of the cash generating unit to which

the goodwill relates. Where the recoverable amount of the cash

generating unit is less than the carrying amount, an impairment

loss is recognised.

Goodwill is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

If the cost of the acquisition is less than the fair value of the net

assets of the subsidiary or associate acquired, the difference is

recognised directly in the income statement at the acquisition date.

1.6 Listed securities

Listed securities are designated by management at fair value

through profit or loss at inception.

1.7 Cash flow hedges

The group uses cash flow hedges to mitigate the risk of variability

of future cash flows arising from fluctuations in equity prices over

the hedging period. Where a cash flow hedge qualifies for hedge

accounting, the effective portion of gains or losses on remeasuring

the fair value of the hedging instrument are recognised directly

in equity in the cash flow hedging reserve until such time as the

hedged item affects profit and loss, at which point, the deferred

gains and losses are transferred to the income statement.

Gains and losses on any portion of the hedge determined to be

ineffective are recognised immediately in profit and loss. If the

forecast hedged transaction is no longer expected to occur, the

cumulative gains or losses on the hedging instrument that were

reported in equity are transferred immediately to the income

statement.

1.8 Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the company has a present legal

or con-structive obligation as a result of a past event, and it is

probable that an outflow of resources embodying economic benefit

will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate of

the amount can be made.

1.9 Revenue recognition

Revenue comprises asset management fees, management fees,

development fees and leasing commissions and excludes value

added taxation. Revenue is recognised when the services are

rendered. Interest is recognised on the effective yield basis over

the period to maturity. Other income is recognised on the accrual

basis.

1.10 Income tax

The charge for current tax is based on the results for the period

as adjusted for items which are non-assessable or disallowed. The

charge is calculated using the tax rates enacted at the balance

sheet date. Deferred taxation is provided using the balance sheet

liability method, providing for temporary differences between the

carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting

purposes and the amounts used for taxation purposes.

A deferred tax liability is recognised on all taxable temporary

differences. A deferred tax asset is recognised for all deductible

temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable

profit will be available against which the deductible temporary

differences can be utilised.

Deferred taxation is calculated at the tax rates that are expected

to apply to the period when the asset is realised or the liability

settled, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or

substantively enacted at the balance sheet date.

1.11 Recently issued accounting standards

During the current year, the group adopted IFRS7 – “Financial

Instruments – Disclosure”. The International Accounting Standards

Board issued a number of standards, amendments to standards

and interpretations during 2007. These amendments will therefore

be implemented by the company, where applicable, during the

financial year ended 31 December 2008. The following are the new

standards and amendments to standards and interpretations:

• IAS 1 – Capital Disclosures

• IFRS 8 – Operating Segments

• IFRIC 10 – Interim Financial Reporting and Impairment

• IFRIC 11 – Group and Treasury Share Transactions

• IFRIC12 – Service Concession Arrangements

• IAS23 - Borrowing costs

The company is currently evaluating the impact of the above but

does not expect any significant effect on the financial statements.

Madison issued 6 500 000 linked units in February 2007 as incentive bonuses to two executives. The incentives, amounting to R25,9 million, have been raised as a prepayment and will be amortised over the five year period of the executives’ contracts. The carrying amount of the prepayment at 31 December 2007 amounts to R20,2 million.

Receivables that are less than three months past due are not considered impaired. At year end, receivables of R383 000 (2006 : Rnil) were past due but not impaired. These relate to lease commissions which will be collected once all requirements relating to the leases have been properly fulfilled. The ageing analysis of these receivables is as follows:

3 to 6 months 367 – – –

6 to 9 months 16 – – –

383 – – –

The group has credit risk exposure on its receivables. The credit risk exposure on the executives sign on incentives is mitigated due to them having to repay portion of the unexpired bonus if they resign prior to the completion of the contract period.

Notes to the financial statements For the year ended 31 December 2007

28. CONTINGENT LIABILITY

Nedbank Limited advanced funds to Clearwater Property Holdings

(Proprietary) Limited, (“Clearwater“) a wholly owned subsidiary of

Clearwater Capital (Proprietary) Limited, to fund the subscribtion for

20 000 000 linked units in Madison. Madison has issued a guarantee, to a

maximum of R20 000 000, in respect of this loan. At year end, Clearwater

had met all obligations to Nedbank Limited.

29. RETIREMENT BENEFITS

90% of Madison employees are members of the Madison Group Staff

Provident Fund, Spearhead Pension Fund or Hyprop Investments Limited

Defined Contibution Provident Fund. These funds are defined contribution

funds and are subject to the Pensions Funds Act, 1956. Based on the

latest actuarial valuations, the funds are in a sound financial position.

Contributions received by the funds for the year amounted to R1,9 million.

The group’s contribution of R1,4 million for the year was included in

employee costs in the income statement.

30. FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Financial instruments of the company consist of deposits with banks,

financial assets, debentures, long term borrowings, trade and other

receivables and trade and other payables. Exposure to credit and interest

rate risk arise in the normal course of the company’s business.

30.1 Equity price risk

The group is exposed to equity price risk through its employee phantom

share scheme. Changes in the market value of the underlying units are

directly linked to changes in the value of the obligation assumed towards

the employees of the group which is required to be settled annually in March

and April each year.

The group hedges its exposure to changes in the resulting cash flows arising

from the employee phantom share schemes which are linked to the market

price of various listed units by means of acquiring a direct investment in

the underlying unit. At contractual maturity date, the underlying units are

disposed of on the open market in order to settle the obligation towards the

participating employees.

30.2 Interest rate risk

The group is exposed to credit rate risk as it borrows funds from time

to time. This risk is managed by negotiating favourable interest rates and

investing in variable rate instruments. The risk is further managed by

investing all surplus cash against the debt.

Sensitivity analysis relating to interest rates: If interest rates increased by

2% during the year, additional interest costs of R1,6 million would have been

incurred.

30.3 Liquidity risk

Company debt funding is provided by Standard Bank of South Africa Limited.

The cash position and requirements of the group are monitored on an

ongoing basis. The group matches funding to assets on a case by case basis

where considered appropriate.

At year end, facilities amounting to R38,9 million were unutilised by the

group.

30.4 Credit risk

Credit risk relates to potential exposure on bank and call deposits and

trade receivables. The group limits its counterparty exposure arising from

money market instruments by dealing only with well established financial

institutions of high credit standing. The credit worthiness of customers is

assessed before a service agreement is concluded which is reviewed on an

ongoing basis. The majority of the group’s revenue flows are from property

funds listed on the JSE Limited. At balance sheet date, the group did not

consider there to be any significant concentration of credit risk which has

not been adequately provided for.

30.5 Currency risk

The group did not have foreign denominated receivables or liabilities at

the year end. The group’s only exposure to currency risk arises from its

investment in Corovest (note 6). Attributable income from this investment

will not be distributed to unitholders until a dividend has been declared and

paid by Corovest.

in issue at the date of the application, less any linked units

issued by the company during the current financial year,

asset value and earnings per linked unit of the company; and

e) the linked units which are the subject of the issue for cash

must be of a class already in issue, or where this is not the

case, must be limited to such linked units or rights as are

convertible into a class already in issue.”

In terms of the Listings Requirements of the JSE a 75% majority

of the votes cast by shareholders present or represented by proxy

at the annual general meeting must be cast in favour of Ordinary

Resolution 6 for it to be approved.

Ordinary Resolution 7: Confirmation of directors’ remuneration

“Resolved that the remuneration of non-executive directors for

“Resolved that the directors be authorised in terms of the

company’s articles of association, until this authority lapses at

the next annual general meeting of the company unless it is then

renewed at the next annual general meeting of the company and

to enable the company or any subsidiary of the company to acquire

linked units of the company subject to the Listings Requirements

of the JSE Limited (“JSE”) and the Companies Act, 61 of 1973,

as amended, on the following bases:

Page 59: “Innovation is the specific instrument of entrepreneurship ... · PDF fileBSc, MBA Chairman of Clearwater Capital, the strategic BEE ... Michael Flax (43) Executive director B Com,

57

a) the acquisition of linked units must be implemented through

the order book operated by the JSE trading system without

any prior understanding or arrangement between the company

and the counterparty;

b) the company (or any subsidiary) must be authorised to do so

in terms of its articles of association;

c) the number of linked units which may be acquired pursuant to

this authority in any financial year (which commenced

1 January 2008) may not in the aggregate exceed 20% (or

10% where the acquisitions are effected by a subsidiary) of the

company’s share capital as at the date of this notice of annual

general meeting;

d) repurchases may not be made at a price more than 10% above

the weighted average of the market value on the JSE of the

linked units in question for the five business days immediately

preceding the repurchase;

e) repurchases may not take place during a prohibited period in

compliance with paragraph 3.67 of the Listings Requirements

of the JSE, unless the dates and quantities of linked units to

be repurchased during the prohibited period have been

determined and full details thereof announced on SENS prior

to commencement of the prohibited period;

f) after the company has acquired linked units which constitute,

on a cumulative basis, 3% of the number of linked units in

issue (at the time that authority from linked unitholders

for the repurchase is granted), the company shall publish

an announcement to such effect;

g) the company’s sponsor must confirm the adequacy of the

company’s working capital for purposes of undertaking the

repurchase of linked units in writing to the JSE prior to the

company (or any subsidiary) entering the market to proceed

with the repurchase;

h) the company must remain in compliance with paragraphs 3.37

to 3.41 of the Listings Requirements of the JSE concerning

unitholder spread after such repurchase; and

i) the company (or any subsidiary) shall appoint only one agent

to effect repurchases on its behalf.”

In accordance with the Listings Requirements of the JSE,

the directors record that:

Although there is no immediate intention to effect a repurchase

of the linked units of the company, the directors would utilise

the general authority to repurchase linked units as and when

suitable opportunities present themselves, which may require

immediate action.

The directors, after considering the maximum number of linked

units that may be repurchased and the price at which the

repurchases may take place pursuant to the buyback general

authority, are of the opinion that for a period of 12 months after

the date of this annual general meeting:

• the company and the group will be able to pay its debts in the

ordinary course of business;

• the consolidated assets of the company and the group fairly

valued in accordance with International Financial Reporting

Standards, will be in excess of the consolidated liabilities of the

company and the group after the buyback; and

• the company’s and the group’s share capital, reserves

and working capital will be adequate for ordinary business

purposes.

The following additional information, some of which may appear

elsewhere in the annual report of which this notice forms part,

is provided in terms of the Listings Requirements of the JSE for

purposes of this general authority:

• Directors – pages 4 and 5;

• Major beneficial unitholders – page 55;

• Directors’ interests in linked units – page 30; and

• Capital structure of the company – page 44.

Litigation statement

In terms of section 11.26 of the Listings Requirements of the JSE,

the directors, whose names appear on pages 4 and 5 of the annual

report of which this notice forms part, are not aware of any legal

or arbitration proceedings including proceedings that are pending

or threatened, that may have or have had in the recent past (being

at least the previous 12 months) a material effect on the group’s

financial position.

Directors’ responsibility statement

The directors whose names appear on pages 4 and 5 of the annual

report of which this notice forms part, collectively and individually

accept full responsibility for the accuracy of the information

pertaining to this special resolution and certify that, to the best

of their knowledge and belief, there are no facts that have been

omitted which would make any statement false or misleading, and

that all reasonable enquiries to ascertain such facts have been

made and that the special resolution contains all information

required by the Companies Act, 61 of 1973, as amended, and the

Listings Requirements of the JSE.

Material changes

Other than the facts and developments reported on in the annual

report of which this notice forms part, there have been no material

changes in the affairs or financial position of the company and its

subsidiaries since the date of signature of the audit report and up

to the date of this notice.

Reason for and effect of Special Resolution 1

The reason for Special Resolution number 1 is to afford directors of

the company a general authority for the company (or a subsidiary

of the company) to effect a buyback of the company’s linked units

on the JSE. The effect of the resolution will be that the directors

will have the authority, subject to the Listings Requirements of

the JSE and the Companies Act, 61 of 1973, as amended, to effect

acquisitions of the company’s linked units on the JSE.

Voting, proxies and quorum

Each of Madison’s linked units comprises one ordinary share

and one debenture. Certificated and own-name dematerialised

shareholders are therefore advised that they must complete a

separate form of proxy for shareholders and for debentureholders

in order for their vote/s to be valid. The form of proxy for

A form of proxy is attached for the convenience of certificated

and own-name dematerialised shareholders holding shares in the

company who cannot attend the annual general meeting but wish

to be represented thereat. Such shareholders must complete and

return the attached form of proxy and lodge it with the transfer

subscribing for the linked units;

d) after the company has issued linked units for cash which

represent, on a cumulative basis within a financial year, 5%

net asset value and earnings per linked unit of the company; and

e) the linked units which are the subject of the issue for cash

must be of a class already in issue, or where this is not the

case, must be limited to such linked units or rights as are

convertible into a class already in issue.”

In terms of the Listings Requirements of the JSE a 75% majority

of the votes cast by debentureholders present in person or

represented by proxy at the annual general meeting must be cast

Debenture Resolution 3: Linked unit repurchases

“Resolved that the directors be authorised in terms of the

company’s articles of association, until this authority lapses at

the next annual general meeting of the company, provided that

this authority shall not extend beyond 15 months, to enable the

company or any subsidiary of the company to acquire linked units

of the company subject to the Listings Requirements of the JSE

Limited (“JSE”) and the Companies Act, 61 of 1973, as amended,

on the following bases:

a) the acquisition of linked units must be implemented through

the order book operated by the JSE trading system without

any prior understanding or arrangement between the company

and the counterparty;

b) the company (or any subsidiary) must be authorised to do so

in terms of its articles of association;

c) the number of linked units which may be acquired pursuant

to this authority in the financial year (which commenced

1 January 2008) may not in the aggregate exceed 20% (or

10% where the acquisitions are effected by a subsidiary) of

the company’s issued linked units as at the date of this notice

of annual general meeting;

d) repurchases may not be made at a price more than 10% above

the weighted average of the market value on the JSE of the

linked units in question for the five business days immediately

preceding the repurchase;

e) repurchases may not take place during a prohibited period in

compliance with paragraph 3.67 of the Listings Requirements

of the JSE, unless the dates and quantities of linked units to

be repurchased during the prohibited period have been

determined and full details thereof announced on SENS prior

to commencement of the prohibited period;

f) after the company has acquired linked units which constitute,

on a cumulative basis, 3% of the number of linked units in

issue (at the time that authority from linked unitholders

for the repurchase is granted), the company shall publish

an announcement to such effect;

g) the company’s sponsor must confirm the adequacy of the

company’s working capital for purposes of undertaking the

Page 62: “Innovation is the specific instrument of entrepreneurship ... · PDF fileBSc, MBA Chairman of Clearwater Capital, the strategic BEE ... Michael Flax (43) Executive director B Com,

60

repurchase of linked units in writing to the JSE prior to the

company (or any subsidiary) entering the market to proceed

with the repurchase;

h) the company must remain in compliance with paragraphs

3.37 to 3.41 of the Listings Requirements of the JSE

concerning unitholder spread after such repurchase; and

i) the company (or any subsidiary) shall appoint only one agent

to effect repurchases on its behalf.”

In accordance with the Listings Requirements of the JSE, the

directors record that:

Although there is no immediate intention to effect a repurchase

of the linked units of the company, the directors would utilise the

general authority to repurchase linked units as and when suitable

opportunities present themselves, which may require immediate

action.

The directors, after considering the maximum number of linked

units that may be repurchased and the price at which the

repurchases may take place pursuant to the buyback general

authority, are of the opinion that for a period of 12 months after

the date of this annual general meeting:

• the company and the group will be able to pay its debts

in the ordinary course of business;

• the consolidated assets of the company and the group fairly

valued in accordance with International Financial Reporting

Standards, will be in excess of the consolidated liabilities of

the company and the group after the buyback; and

• the company’s and the group’s share capital, reserves

and working capital will be adequate for ordinary

business purposes.

The following additional information, some of which may appear

elsewhere in the annual report of which this notice forms part,

is provided in terms of the Listings Requirements of the JSE for

purposes of this general authority:

• Directors – pages 4 and 5;

• Major beneficial unitholders – page 55;

• Directors’ interests in linked units – page 30; and

• Capital structure of the company – page 44.

Litigation statement

In terms of section 11.26 of the Listings Requirements of the JSE,

the directors, whose names appear on pages 4 and 5 of the annual

report of which this notice forms part, are not aware of any legal

or arbitration proceedings including proceedings that are pending

or threatened, that may have or have had in the recent past (being

at least the previous 12 months) a material effect on the group’s

financial position.

Directors’ responsibility statement

The directors whose names appear on pages 4 and 5 of the annual

report of which this notice forms part, collectively and individually

accept full responsibility for the accuracy of the information

pertaining to this special resolution and certify that, to the best

of their knowledge and belief, there are no facts that have been

omitted which would make any statement false or misleading, and

that all reasonable enquiries to ascertain such facts have been

made and that the special resolution contains all information

required by the Companies Act, 61 of 1973, as amended, and the

Listings Requirements of the JSE.

Material changes

Other than the facts and developments reported on in the annual

report of which this notice forms part, there have been no material

changes in the affairs or financial position of the company and its

subsidiaries since the date of signature of the audit report and up

to the date of this notice.

In terms of the Debenture Trust Deed, the resolution is classed

as a debenture special resolution and as such is required to

be passed by a majority consisting of not less than 75% of the

debentureholders present in person or represented by proxy at the

meeting.

Debenture Resolution 4: Signature of documentation

“Resolved that a director or the company secretary of the company

be and is hereby authorised to sign all such documentation and

do all such things as may be necessary for or incidental to the

implementation of Debenture Resolution numbers 1, 2 and 3 which

are passed by the linked unitholders with and subject to the terms

thereof.”

This resolution is classed as a debenture ordinary resolution

and as such is required to be passed by a simple majority of

debentureholders present in person or represented by proxy at the

meeting.

Voting, proxies and quorum

Each of Madison’s linked units comprises one ordinary share

and one debenture. Certificated and own-name dematerialised

debentureholders are therefore advised that they must complete a

separate form of proxy for shareholders and for debentureholders

in order for their vote/s to be valid. The form of proxy for

certificated and own-name dematerialised shareholders is set

out on page 63 of the annual report and the form of proxy for

certificated and own-name dematerialised debentureholders

is set out on page 65 of the annual report.

A debentureholder of the company entitled to attend, speak and

vote at the annual general meeting is entitled to appoint a proxy

or proxies to attend, speak and to vote in his stead. The proxy need

not be a debentureholder of the company.

On a show of hands, every debentureholder of the company

present in person or represented by proxy shall have one vote only.

On a poll, every debentureholder of the company present in person

or represented by proxy shall have one vote for every debenture

held in the company by such debentureholder.

A form of proxy is attached for the convenience of certificated

and ownname dematerialised debentureholders holding debentures

in the company who cannot attend the annual general meeting

but wish to be represented thereat. Such debentureholders must

complete and return the attached form of proxy and lodge it with

the transfer secretaries of the company.

Dematerialised debentureholders who have not elected own-name

registration in the sub-register of the company through a Central

Securities Depository Participant (“CSDP”) and who wish to attend

the annual general meeting, must instruct the CSDP or broker

to provide them with the necessary authority to attend.

Page 63: “Innovation is the specific instrument of entrepreneurship ... · PDF fileBSc, MBA Chairman of Clearwater Capital, the strategic BEE ... Michael Flax (43) Executive director B Com,

61

Dematerialised debentureholders who have not elected own-

name registration in the sub-register of the company through

a CSDP and who are unable to attend, but wish to vote at the

annual general meeting, must timeously provide their CSDP

or broker with their voting instructions in terms of the custody

agreement entered into between that debentureholder and the

CSDP or broker. Such debentureholders are advised that they must

provide their CSDP or broker with separate voting instructions in

respect of the shares and the debentures in terms of their linked

units.

Forms of proxy may also be obtained on request from the

company’s registered office. The completed forms of proxy

must be deposited at, posted or faxed to the transfer secretaries

Computershare Investor Services (Proprietary) Limited, Ground

Floor, 70 Marshall Street, Johannesburg 2001 (PO Box 61051,

Marshalltown 2107), to be received at least 48 hours prior to

the meeting. Any debentureholder who completes and lodges a

form of proxy will nevertheless be entitled to attend and vote in

person at the annual general meeting should the debentureholder

subsequently decide to do so.

A quorum at a meeting shall:

for the purposes of considering a debenture ordinary resolution,

consist of debentureholders present in person or represented by

proxy and holding in the aggregate not less than one-tenth of the

debentures in issue; and

for the purposes of considering a debenture special resolution,

consist of debentureholders present in person or represented by

proxy and holding in the aggregate not less than the number of

the debentures in issue representing a clear majority of those

debentures in issue, which quorum, must be present throughout

the meeting.

Notes to the form of proxy for shareholders

1 Each of Madison’s linked units comprises one ordinary

share and one debenture. Certificated and own-name

dematerialised shareholders are therefore advised

that they must complete a separate form of proxy for

certificated and own-name dematerialised shareholders

and a separate form of proxy for certificated and own-

name dematerialised debentureholders in order for their

vote/s to be valid. The form of proxy for certificated and

3 Each shareholder is entitled to appoint one or more

proxies (none of whom need to be a shareholder of the

company) to attend, speak and vote in place of that

shareholder at the annual general meeting.

4 Shareholders that are certificated or own-name

dematerialised shareholders may insert the name of

a proxy or the names of two alternate proxies of the

shareholder’s choice in the space/s provided, with

or without deleting “the chairperson of the general

meeting”, but any such deletion must be initialled by the

shareholders. The person whose name stands first on the

form of proxy and who is present at the annual general

meeting will be entitled to act as proxy to the exclusion

of those whose names follow. If no proxy is named on a

lodged form of proxy, the chairperson shall be deemed to

be appointed as the proxy.

5 A shareholder’s instructions to the proxy must be

indicated by the insertion of the relevant number of

votes exercisable by the shareholder in the appropriate

box provided. Failure to comply with the above will be

deemed to authorise the proxy, in the case of any proxy

other than the chairperson, to vote or abstain from

voting as deemed fit and in the case of the chairperson

to vote in favour of the resolution.

6 A shareholder or his/her proxy is not obliged to use all

the votes exercisable by the shareholder, but the total

shares held by the shareholder.

(Proprietary) Limited, Ground Floor, 70 Marshall Street,

Johannesburg 2001 (PO Box 61051, Marshalltown 2107),

8 The completion and lodging of this form of proxy will

not preclude the relevant shareholder from attending

the annual general meeting and speaking and voting in

person thereat to the exclusion of any proxy appointed

in terms hereof, should such shareholder wish to do so.

Where there are joint holders of ordinary shares, the vote

of the first joint holder who tenders a vote as determined

by the order in which the names stand in the register of

shareholders, will be accepted.

9 Where there are joint holders of any ordinary shares,

only that holder whose name appears first in the register

in respect of such shares needs sign this form of proxy.

10 The chairperson of the annual general meeting may

reject or accept any form of proxy which is completed

and/or received otherwise than in accordance with these

notes, provided that, in respect of acceptances, the

chairperson is satisfied as to the manner in which the

shareholder concerned wishes to vote.

11 Documentary evidence establishing the authority of

a person signing this form of proxy in a representative

capacity must be attached to this form of proxy unless

previously recorded by the company or Computershare

Investor Services (Proprietary) Limited or waived by the

chairperson of the annual general meeting.

12 Any alteration or correction made to this form of proxy

must be initialled by the signatory/ies.

legal capacity are produced or have been registered by
