Chair’s Address

I will now provide a short overview of our business, our board, and focus during FY16.

Our vision, purpose and goal

Our proven strategy remains focused on utilising our property

expertise to access, deploy, manage and invest equity in our core real estate sectors to create value and generate superior returns for our customers.

At 30 June 2016 we managed a $17.5 billion high quality portfolio of office, retail, industrial and hospitality assets servicing close to 3,000 tenants on behalf of wholesale, listed and retail investors with the goal of becoming Australia’s most highly regarded property investment and funds management business.

==> picture [32 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

Solid total securityholder returns

I am pleased to report the Group delivered solid growth across our platform during the 2016 financial year. As a result, we were able to deliver a total securityholder return over the 12 months to 30 September 2016 of 24.1% and the past 5 years of 32.7%.

Over the past 5 years to 30 September 2016, Charter Hall was the best performing A-REIT in the ASX 200 Property Accumulation Index, also outperforming the IPD Property Index in the same time period.

We remain in a strong position to continue to manage and invest capital into high quality Australian commercial property. Our Managing Director and Group CEO will provide further commentary in his operational update shortly.

Solid earnings and distribution growth

In FY16, we reported operating earnings of $124.7 million, up 26.4% on the prior year, with an 11.6% compound annual growth rate in Operating Earnings Per Security over the past five years. The Board was also pleased to make a full year distribution of 26.9 cents per security, up 11.2% on the prior corresponding year representing a 13.5% compound annual growth rate in distributions over the past five years.

==> picture [32 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

A new structure to support future growth

In February, after more than 10 years of successful joint leadership, the Board appointed David Harrison as Managing Director and Group CEO (MD/CEO) of Charter Hall Group and David Southon elected to step down as Joint Managing Director (JMD). The decision to move to a single CEO structure was taken by the Board and the JMDs as we collectively thought the time was right to move to a single leader. Having successfully had Joint MDs for a decade, we were cautious in moving to one head. With the growth of Charter Hall, we and the Joint MDs thought a more conventional structure would give other

executives a chance to step up and demonstrate their expertise at the highest level, creating depth and judgement in our senior ranks. Each of our different real estate sectors now has a sector Head focussed on their specialisation, and dedicated to our clients.

The decision to appoint David Harrison as sole CEO, was based on his property expertise, his ability in matching investor appetite with quality investment products, and commitment to driving a customer focused approach to all aspects of the business.

As one of the founders of our business, David Southon has led the Group through exciting and challenging phases over the past 25 years, including Charter Hall’s transformation into a listed, fully integrated property investment management group. David is a very experienced executive and a wonderful person. He is someone who has built, along with the other founders of the business a legacy that will endure through the spirit and resourcefulness of our employees.

On behalf of the Board and our people, I thank him for guiding the growth and maturity of the Group, his wisdom, and for the wonderful legacy he leaves us.

A strong Board of Directors with a diverse skill set

The Charter Hall Board is also focused on succession and renewal.

This year, after nearly four years on the Board and on the Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee as Chair, David Deverall an independent Non-Executive Director announced his acceptance of a full time executive appointment, which meant he would retire from our board. David took a role with the NSW Government as CEO of T-Corp, and we wish him the very best in his new role.

Karen Moses has been appointed to the Group as a Non-Executive Director, effective 1 September. Karen’s appointment brings a deep skill set to the Board, gained from more than 30 years’ corporate experience in the energy industry spanning oil, gas, electricity and coal commodities, both within Australia and overseas. Karen will address the meeting in a few minutes running through her considerable experience and qualifications to be one of your directors.

On behalf of the Board we thank David for his contribution and welcome Karen.

As I mentioned earlier Colin McGowan is also retiring today from your board after 11 years. For those long term shareholders, you will know the both exciting and challenging times Colin has been part of over that period on this board. In that time Colin’s colleagues have seen all his wisdom bought to bare on a huge range of issues. To be effective a board needs a balance of skills and importantly judgement. Colin has bought his considerable experience and a lifetime of judgement honed by a career in real estate. He has applied that knowledge with great effect as chair of the Investment Committee. He joined the board of a small property manager called Charter Hall as they floated on the

==> picture [104 x 14] intentionally omitted <==

Page 6 of 10

==> picture [32 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

stock exchange, and retires today from a successful manager and investor of $18 billion of Australian real estate. We thank him for all the time and wisdom he has bought to his role with us.

We believe we are close to appointing a new director to your board to fill the place vacated by Colin’s retirement.

Committed to creating a diverse and inclusive culture

In other areas, as a Group, we have continued to build a sustainable culture that truly values diversity, inclusion and flexibility. In the last six months of 2015, we talked to all our employees on the value of diversity of thought and its very direct link to the performance of our business, understanding the role of unconscious bias and how we can limit its impact on all business decision making.

We are also focused on implementing initiatives, such as Group and Divisional diversity targets, to encourage more females into leadership roles. We undertook a pay equity review to address any pay disparities and factors that may be impacting pay equity throughout an employee’s career.

Evolving our Sustainability Approach

Our integrated business model now incorporates a shared value approach, incorporating business, economic, social and environmental outcomes into our operations and developments. The shared value framework focuses on the themes of eco-innovation, place creation and wellbeing and will continue to produce sustainable returns for our investors and positive experiences for our tenants, our people and the community. Creating a sustainable future for our stakeholders and the communities in which we operate is a key part of

==> picture [104 x 14] intentionally omitted <==

Page 7 of 10

==> picture [32 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

our goal to be Australia’s best and most highly regarded property investment and funds management business.

We strive to do better in all aspects of your business. The measures I have just talked about help us bring the expertise of our platform, our tenant relationships, and our ability to bring opportunities to investors both to invest, partner and divest. We span office, retail, and industrial real estate transferring the learnings of our people from sector to sector for the advantage of all.

Committed to Corporate Governance

Charter Hall has committed itself to maintaining the highest possible standards of corporate governance as the manager of substantial capital on behalf of others, by maintaining a material co-investment alongside our investors.

Charter Hall has always understood the importance of maintaining a strong alignment of its interests with those of its equity investors. Over the years, Charter Hall’s level of co-investment has been consistently maintained in the region of 10% of the aggregate equity invested in Charter Hall managed funds.

We also understand the importance of identification and effective management of the inherent conflicts of interest that arise between our own interests as an asset manager and those of our investors.

Our internal processes reflect these understandings. This includes the roles played by the Independent Directors and Committee members appointed to our various Boards and our Investment Committees.

==> picture [104 x 14] intentionally omitted <==

Page 8 of 10

==> picture [32 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

Each provides the necessary focus on governance and discipline in the allocation of capital and when making key acquisition and disposal decisions.

I would like to acknowledge those directors and committee members for the very important work they do.

We hold a position of significant trust among those many institutions and individuals that invest in our funds and partnerships. The issues of sustainability, governance, and equity between security holders, investors, employees and tenants, are vitally important to the future success of this business. As your board we are committed to never losing sight of the trust that is placed in us by all parties.

It’s now may pleasure to introduce the Managing Director and Group CEO, David Harrison for his operational update.

Close of Meeting

In closing today’s meeting, I would like to acknowledge the loyalty that our investor partners, security holders and tenant customers have shown us, allowing the business to grow.

In particular, I would like to thank John Gandel and the Gandel Group for their investment in Charter Hall Group. Their support in many different ways has been instrumental in the growth of the group. They have now left the security holder register after 7 Years and we wish John and his family all the best for the future.

==> picture [104 x 14] intentionally omitted <==

==> picture [32 x 39] intentionally omitted <==

We believe financial year 2017 will be another very interesting year for the Group. We see like you, the uncertainty in markets and we are determined to focus on “through the cycle performance”. We will continue to harness our peoples’ collective skills and experience, to focus on our core property sectors to deliver high quality accommodation and experiences for our tenant customers, to achieve solid long term performance for our capital partners and for the Charter Hall Group security holders.
