The Chairman, Paul Orchard-Lisle, stated:

`Overview of 2012 for the Company

In last year's report, I wrote that I believed the Company to be well
positioned to maintain an attractive income flow to its investors. I am pleased
to say that my confidence has been justified with shareholders for the 12 month
period to the end of December 2012 receiving a 9.7% income return from the
property portfolio (including surrender premiums). Our dividend yield at the
end of the year was 7.8% on a share price of 58.25p.

While our focus was, and will continue to be, on the receipt and distribution
of income, I am alert that we should also deliver an attractive total return
and growth in our NAV. However, the measurement of capital value is lead by the
market at large as much as by our own assets and is far more subjective than
the actual receipt of cash from tenants. Thus, along with most real estate
investors, we have seen the capital value of our properties decline by 5.2%*
versus a fall in the IPD monthly index of 4.3%. Our property total return was
4.1%* versus the IPD monthly index of 1.6%*.
