Interim Management Report
Picton ZDP Limited ("the Company") is a Guernsey registered
company, established on 2 September 2012 and is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Picton Property Income Limited ("the Parent") which
is a closed ended investment company incorporated in Guernsey.
The Company's principal investment objective is to provide the
holders of the zero dividend preference shares ("ZDP Shares") with
a predetermined final capital entitlement.
On repayment, ZDP shareholders are entitled to receive an amount
equal to 100 pence per share increased daily at an equivalent
annual rate of 7.25% per annum. The ZDP Share's repayment date is
the 16 October 2016 and the final capital entitlement will be 132.2
pence per ZDP Share.
The Parent has entered into a Contribution Agreement with the
Company to provide an undertaking to pay any costs and expenses
incurred by the Company and to enable the Company to meet its
payment obligations in respect of the ZDP shares. Although the
Parent has entered into an undertaking to meet all liabilities as
they fall due it is important to note that all risks are borne by
the ZDP shareholders who are not guaranteed to receive their full
capital entitlement.

INDEPENDENT REVIEW REPORT TO PICTON ZDP LIMITED ("the
Company")
Introduction
We have been engaged by the Company to review the condensed set
of consolidated financial statements in the Interim Report for the
six months ended 30 September 2013 which comprises the Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income, the Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity, the Condensed
Consolidated Balance Sheet and the related explanatory notes. We
have read the other information contained in the Interim Report and
considered whether it contains any apparent misstatements or
material inconsistencies with the information in the condensed set
of financial statements.
This report is made solely to the Company in accordance with the
terms of our engagement to assist the Company in meeting the
requirements of the Disclosure and Transparency Rules ("the DTR")
of the UK's Financial Conduct Authority ("the UK FCA"). Our review
has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company those
matters we are required to state to it in this report and for no
other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not
accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company
for our review work, for this report, or for the conclusions we
have reached.
Directors' responsibilities
The Interim Report is the responsibility of, and has been
approved by, the directors. The directors are responsible for
preparing the Interim Report in accordance with the DTR of the UK
FCA.
As disclosed in note 2, the annual financial statements of the
Company are prepared in accordance with International Financial
Reporting Standards. The condensed set of consolidated financial
statements included in this Interim Report has been prepared in
accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'.
Our responsibility
Our responsibility is to express to the Company a conclusion on
the condensed set of consolidated financial statements in the
Interim Report based on our review.
Scope of review
We conducted our review in accordance with International
Standard on Review Engagements (UK and Ireland) 2410 Review of
Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor
of the Entity issued by the Auditing Practices Board for use in the
UK. A review of interim financial information consists of making
enquiries, 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
(UK and Ireland) 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 condensed set of consolidated
financial statements in the Interim Report for the six months ended
30 September 2013 is not prepared, in all material respects, in
accordance with IAS 34 and the DTR of the UK FCA.

Notes to the Condensed
Consolidated Financial Statements
For the period from 1 April 2013 to 30 September 2013
1. General information
Picton ZDP Limited (the "Company" and together with its
subsidiary, IRET Securities Limited, the "Group") was incorporated
on 2 September 2012 and is registered in Guernsey. The Company is a
wholly owned subsidiary of Picton Property Income Limited, (the
"Parent"), which is an investment company registered in Guernsey.
The financial statements are prepared for the period from 1 April
2013 to 30 September 2013, with audited comparatives for the period
from registration on 2 September 2012 to 31 March 2013.
These financial statements are presented in pounds sterling
being the currency of the primary economic environment in which the
Company operates.
2. Significant accounting policies
Basis of accounting
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with
IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'. They do not include all of
the information required for full annual financial statements, and
should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of the
Company as at and for the period ended 31 March 2013.
The accounting policies applied by the Company in the Interim
Reportare the same as those applied by the Company in its financial
statements as at and for the period ended 31 March 2013, with the
exception of the following which have had no effect on the
financial statements:
-- IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements, effective for
accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. IFRS 10
establishes a single control model that applies to all entities
including special purpose entities. The changes introduced require
management to focus on whether power exists over an entity, the
exposure or right to variable returns from its involvement with
that entity and its ability to use its power to affect those
returns. In particular, IFRS 10 requires the consolidation of
entities it controls on the basis of de facto circumstances. In
accordance with IFRS 10, management have reassessed the
relationship between entities. Notwithstanding the above, the
adoption of IFRS 10 had no impact on the Group.
-- IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement, effective for accounting
periods beginning on or after 1 January 2013. IFRS 13 establishes a
single source of guidance under IFRS for all fair value
measurements. IFRS 13 does not change when an entity is required to
use fair value, but rather provides guidance on how to measure fair
value under IFRS when fair value is required or permitted by other
IFRSs. In accordance with the provisions of IFRS, management has
applied the new fair value measurement guidance prospectively.
Notwithstanding the above, the change had no significant impact on
the measurements of the Group's assets and liabilities.
The annual financial statements of the Company are prepared in
accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards
('IFRS') as issued by the IASB.
Segmental reporting
The Directors are of the opinion that the Company is engaged in
a single economic and geographic segment of business primarily
being the raising of funds in order to provide financing to the
Parent.
Statement of cash flows
No Cash Flow Statement is presented as all funding activities
are provided by the Parent.
Financial risk management
The Company's financial risk management policies are consistent
with those disclosed in the financial statements as at and for the
period from registration on 2 September 2012 to 31 March 2013.

6. Amounts due from parent company (continued)
On 12 September 2012 the Company entered into a Contribution
Agreement with the Parent. The agreement provides an undertaking by
the Parent to pay any costs and expenses incurred by the Company in
respect of its operation and the continuation of its business and
to enable the Company to meet its payment obligations in respect of
the ZDP shares. The Parent has agreed to support the Company's
obligations and has agreed to certain protections to ensure the
Parent does not make distributions or returns of capital without
retaining sufficient capital to meet its obligations to the
Company. During the period the Parent provided an undertaking of
costs totalling GBP922,000, of which GBP19,000 was settled by the
Parent during the period.
7. Zero dividend preference shares

GBP000 GBP000
Balance at start of period 22,720 -

Share acquisition - 35,343
Capital additions 812 1,013
Share repayment - (35,636)
Balance at end of period 23,532 22,720
The Company issued 22,000,000 zero dividend preference shares
('ZDP shares') at 100 pence per share. The ZDP shares have an
entitlement to receive a fixed cash amount on 15 October 2016,
being the maturity date, but do not receive any dividends or income
distributions. Additional capital accrues to the ZDP shares on a
daily basis at a rate equivalent to 7.25% per annum, resulting in a
final capital entitlement of 132.2 pence per share. The ZDP shares
were listed on the London Stock Exchange on 15 October 2012.
During the period the Company has accrued for GBP812,000 of
additional capital (31 March 2013: GBP720,000). The total amount
repayable at maturity is GBP29,114,000.
The ZDP shares do not carry the right to vote at general
meetings of the Company, although they carry the right to vote as a
class on certain proposals which would be likely to materially
affect their position. In the event of a winding-up of the Company,
the capital entitlement of the ZDP shares (except for any
undistributed revenue profits) will rank ahead of ordinary shares
but behind other creditors of the Company.
On 12 September 2012 the Company obtained control of IRET
Securities Limited, recognising zero dividend preference shares of
GBP35,343,000 at the date of acquisition ("2012 ZDP Shares"). The
2012 ZDP shares accrued capital additions on a daily basis at a
rate equivalent to 6.875% per annum, and were repaid in full on 31
October 2012, being the maturity date.
8. Share capital
The Company has one class of share which carries no right to
fixed income. The authorised share capital of the Company is one
ordinary share issued at GBP1. On 2 September 2012 the Company
issued one ordinary share at par value.
