The company announces thatit is making arrangements to place 3,441,000 new ordinary shares of 25p each of the company (the 'placingshares'), representing some 9 per centof the existing ordinary shares in issue, at a subscription price of 145p per share (the 'placing price').

The proceeds from the placing of the placing shares, which are estimated to amount to £4.9 million (net of expenses of approximately £98,000), will be applied in subscribing 85 per cent of a proposed share capital increase by company's principal operating subsidiary, PT REA Kaltim Plantations('REA Kaltim'). The company's partners in the ownership of REA Kaltim, the PT Dharma Nusantara Sakti group,have indicated that they will support the capital increase by subscribing for the balance of 15 per cent (reflecting their existing 15 per cent interest in REA Kaltim).

In this connection, the company hastoday entered into a placing agreement with Mirabaud SecuritiesLimited ('Mirabaud') pursuant to which the latter has agreed to use its reasonable endeavours to procure, on the company's behalf, subscribers for a total of 1,490,000 placing sharesat the placing price,payable in full on allotment(the 'institutional placing'). Mirabaud has successfully placed firm today all of the placing shares comprised in the institutional placing. The terms andconditions of the placing are set out in the appendix to this announcement.

In addition, REA has agreed with Emba Holdings Limited ('Emba'), a company owned byMr R Robinow, a non-executive director of REA, and members of his family, and a substantial shareholder of REA, that, subject to compliance with the relevant regulatory requirements applicable to smaller related party transactions pursuant to Listing Rule 11.1.10 R, Emba will participate in the placing, which participation will entail REA issuing to Emba a further 1,940,000 placing sharesat the placing price. The issue of placingshares to Emba (the 'related party placing')will be confirmed by a further announcement.

REA has also agreed with David Blackett, chairman of REA, and Carol Gysin, managing director of REA, that they will each participate in the placing, in the amount of, respectively, 10,000 and 1,000further placingshares at the placing price(the 'directors' placing').

The institutional placing, the related party placing and the directors' placing areconditional only upon admission of the new ordinary shares to the premium listing segment of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority and to trading on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed securities. It is expected that admission, for which the company will make application, will become effective and that dealings in the new ordinary shares will commence at 8.00 am on 2 October2019.

In accordance with the Prospectus Regulation Rules issued by the Financial ConductAuthority in compliance with relevant European law, the company is not required to publish, and accordingly is not publishing, a prospectus in connection withthe issue of the placing shares.

The placing shares will, upon issue, rank pari passuin all respects with the existing ordinarysharesof the company and, in particular, will be entitled to anydividendspayablein respect of 2019. Nosuch dividends have been declaredto date.

As a result of the issue of the placing shares, REA's issued share capital will comprise 43,950,529 ordinary shares of 25p each and 72,000,000 9 per cent cumulative preference shares of £1 each.

The number of votes that may ordinarily be cast on a poll at a general meeting of REA and that attach to the issued ordinary shares is 43,950,529 (of which 132,500 are currently held astreasuryshares) and to the issued preference shares is nil. The above figures may be used by REA shareholders for the calculations by which they determine whether they are required to notify their interest in, or change of interest in, shares of REA, under the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure and Transparency Rules.

Participation in, and principal terms of, the Placing

Mirabaud Securities are arranging the Placing within the UK as agent for and on behalf of the Company. Mirabaud Securities will determine in its absolute discretion the extent of each Placee's participation in the Placing, which will not necessarily be the same for each Placee. The Placing is not underwritten. The price of securities and income from them may go down as well as up and investors may not get back the full amount on disposal of the securities.

Any indication in this Announcement of the price at which Ordinary Shares have been bought or sold in the past cannot be relied upon as a guide to future performance. No statement in this Announcement is intended to be a profit forecast and no statement in this Announcement should be interpreted to mean that earnings per share of the Company for the current or future financial years would necessarily match or exceed the historical published earnings per share of the Company.

On the assumption that the conditions set out in the Placing Agreement are satisfied (or waived, where appropriate) and that the Placing Agreement does not lapse and is not terminated in accordance with its terms on or prior to 8.00 a.m. on 2 October 2019 (or such later date, being not later than 8October 2019 (the 'Long Stop Date'), as Mirabaud Securities and the Company may agree in writing), each Placee will be required to pay to Mirabaud Securities on the Company's behalf, the Placing Price for each Placing Share agreed to be acquired by it under the Placing in accordance with the terms set out herein. Each Placee's obligation to acquire and pay for Placing Shares under the Placing will be owed to Mirabaud Securities and the Company. Each Placee has an immediate, separate, irrevocable and binding obligation, owed to Mirabaud Securities, to pay to it (or as it may direct) in cleared funds an amount equal to the product of the Placing Price and the number of Placing Shares such Placee has agreed to subscribe for. Each Placee will be deemed to have read and understood the Appendix in its entirety, to be participating in the Placing upon the terms and conditions contained in the Appendix, and to be providing the confirmations, representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgements and undertakings, in each case as contained in the Appendix. Save in the event of fraud on its part (and to the extent permitted by the rules of the FCA (the 'FCA Rules')), neither (i) Mirabaud Securities, (ii) its directors, officers, employees or consultants, nor (iii) to the extent not contained within (i) or (ii), any person connected with Mirabaud Securities as defined in the FCA Rules ((i), (ii) and (iii) being together 'affiliates' and individually an 'affiliate'), shall have any liability to Placees or to any person other than the Company in respect of the Placing and that where any such liability nevertheless arises as a matter of law each Placee will immediately waive any claim against any affiliates which it may have in respect thereof.

Conditions of the Placing

The Placing Agreement will be conditional, inter alia, on:

1. Admission having become effective by no later than 8.00 a.m.on 2 October 2019 (or by such later date as the Company and Mirabaud Securities may agree, being no later than the Long Stop Date);and
2. the Company having complied with its obligations under the Placing Agreement to the extent that the same fall to be performed prior to Admission.

If any of the conditions contained in the Placing Agreement are not satisfied (or, where applicable, waived) or it has become incapable of being satisfied on or before 8.00 a.m. on 2 October 2019 or such later date as Mirabaud Securities and the Company may agree in writing (but being not later than the Long Stop Date) the Placee's rights and obligations hereunder shall cease and determine at such time and each Placee agrees that no claim can be made by the Placee in respect thereof. All obligations assumed by the Placee under the terms and conditions of this Announcement are given to Mirabaud Securities in its capacity as agent for the Company and are therefore directly enforceable by the Company.

By accepting Placing Shares, each Placee irrevocably agrees that: (i) the Company and Mirabaud Securities may jointly, in their absolute discretion, exercise the right to extend the time for fulfilment of any of the conditions to the Placing Agreement (provided that Admission occurs not later than the Long Stop Date) waive, in whole or in part, fulfilment of certain of the conditions to the Placing Agreement and may terminate the Placing Agreement in certain circumstances prior to Admission, in each case without consulting with any Placee. Any such extension or waiver will not affect the Placees' commitments. If there is any change to the timetable the Placees will be notified at the first practicable opportunity.

Termination of the Placing Agreement

The Placing Agreement contains certain undertakings and warranties given by the Company for the benefit of Mirabaud Securities and indemnities given by the Company relating to certain potential liabilities of Mirabaud Securities. In addition, Mirabaud Securities has certain rights to terminate the Placing Agreement at any time prior to Admission, inter alia, in the event of force majeure or a breach of warranty which is material in the context of the Placing. In the event that Mirabaud Securities exercises these rights, all obligations and liabilities owed by the Placees will cease and Mirabaud Securities will cause to be returned to the Placee, without interest, all monies received from the Placee at the Placee's risk.

By participating in the Placing, Placees agree that the exercise by Mirabaud Securities of any right of termination or other discretion under the Placing Agreement shall be within the absolute discretion of Mirabaud Securities and that it need not make any reference to Placees and that it shall have no liability to Placees whatsoever in connection with any such exercise or failure so to exercise.

No prospectus

No offering document or prospectus has been or will be submitted to be approved by the FCA in relation to the Placing and Placees' commitments will be made solely on the basis of the information contained in this Announcement (including the Appendix) released by the Company today, and subject to the further terms set forth in the contract note to be provided by Mirabaud Securities to individual prospective Placees.

Each Placee, by participating in the Placing, agrees that the content of this Announcement (including the Appendix) is exclusively the responsibility of the Company and confirms that it has neither received nor relied on any other information or representation concerning the Company, its subsidiaries, the Placing or the Ordinary Shares. Neither the content of the Company's website nor any website accessible by hyperlinks on the Company's website is incorporated in, or forms part of, this Announcement. Neither the Company nor Mirabaud Securities nor any of their respective officers, directors or employees will be liable for any Placee's decision to participate in the Placing based on any other information, representation, warranty or statement which the Placees may have obtained or received. Each Placee acknowledges and agrees that it has relied on its own investigation of the business, financial or other position of the Company in accepting a participation in the Placing.

Registration and settlement

Settlement of transactions in the Placing Shares through DIs following Admission will take place within the system administered by CREST, subject to certain exceptions. The Company reserves the right to require settlement for and delivery of the Placing Shares (or a portion thereof) to Placees in certificated form if either Mirabaud Securities in its absolute discretion considers this to be necessary or desirable.

A Placee's commitment to acquire a fixed number of Placing Shares under the Placing will be agreed orally with Mirabaud Securities. Such agreement will constitute a legally binding commitment on such Placee's part to acquire that number of Placing Shares at the Placing Price on the terms and conditions set out or referred to in the Appendix and subject to the Company's Memorandum and Articles of Association.

After such agreement is entered into, each Placee allocated Placing Shares in the Placing will be sent contract notes stating the number of Placing Shares allocated to it at the Placing Price and settlement instructions (the 'Contract Note').

Each Placee agrees that it will do all things necessary to ensure that delivery and payment is completed in accordance with the standing CREST or certificated settlement instructions that it has in place with Mirabaud Securities. Settlement should be through Mirabaud Securities against CREST ID: 834, account designation: Clearing. For the avoidance of doubt, Placing allocations will be booked with a trade date of 27 September 2019and settlement date of 2 October 2019.

The Company will deliver the Placing Shares to the CREST accounts operated by Mirabaud Securities as agent for the Company and Mirabaud Securities will enter its delivery (DEL) instruction into the CREST system. The input to CREST by a Placee of a matching or acceptance instruction will then allow delivery of the relevant Placing Shares to that Placee against payment.

Interest may be charged in respect of payments not received for value at that time.

Whilst Mirabaud Securities do not believe there to be any liability to stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax in respect of the Placing Shares, should any such stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax be payable, it shall be entirely for the Placee's account and neither the Company nor Mirabaud Securities will have any liability in respect thereof.

Each Placee is deemed to agree that, if it does not comply with these obligations, Mirabaud Securities may sell any or all of the Placing Shares allocated to that Placee on such Placee's behalf and retain from the proceeds, for the Company's account and benefit, an amount equal to the aggregate amount owed by the Placee plus any interest due. The relevant Placee will, however, remain liable for any shortfall below the aggregate amount owed by it and may be required to bear any stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax (together with any interest or penalties) which may arise upon the sale of such Placing Shares on such Placee's behalf.

If Placing Shares are to be delivered to a custodian or settlement agent, Placees should ensure that the trade confirmation is copied and delivered immediately to the relevant person within that organisation. Insofar as Placing Shares are registered in a Placee's name or that of its nominee or in the name of any person for whom a Placee is contracting as agent or that of a nominee for such person, such Placing Shares should, subject as provided below, be so registered free from any liability to UK stamp duty or stamp duty reserve tax. Placees will not be entitled to receive any fee or commission in connection with the Placing.
