CEO’s ADDRESS GOODMAN GROUP – ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING 25 NOVEMBER 2015 AT 10:00AM THE WESTIN SYDNEY

Thank you Ian and good morning ladies and gentlemen.

Goodman is truly a business for the future.

The increasing globalisation of online shopping and the need for greater speed and efficiency in global consumer markets is driving the evolution of warehousing. This is an exciting opportunity for Goodman and we have a steely resolve and determination to be the best at what we do.

Importantly, the results we are achieving are profound.

Our assets under management stand at over $32 billion, with strong occupancy at 96% and $3.4 billion of development activity. We have been taking the opportunity globally to improve the quality of our assets and sustainability of income for the long term. Since the start of FY15, we’ve sold $2.5 billion of assets, excluding

Page | 1

urban renewal sites, which in turn is financing our growing development activities. Our focus is not on being the biggest, but the best at what we do around the world, by striving to own the best assets in the best locations.

Goodman is a truly global business, servicing the major gateway cities of the world from Sydney, Auckland, Tokyo, Hong Kong and Shanghai, to London, Paris, Frankfurt, Los Angeles and New York. The changes shaping the industrial landscape are reflected in the investment decisions we are making now and will create value into the future.

Goodman is focused on the long term and our approach today is the same as it was 20 years ago. The industrial sites we bought in the 1990s are creating tremendous value for the future, and in particular our urban renewal activities.

While industrial property was considered the ugly duckling 20 years ago, today we are benefitting significantly from value increases. We now have one of the most attractive institutional grade investments and probably the most sought after asset class.

Page | 2

Goodman has completed and contracted $1.8 billion of urban renewal sales to date, over sites for approximately 10,000 apartments. Significantly, we retain a pipeline of 35,000

apartments, which will provide tremendous value spanning the next decade. This provides a significant long-term source of capital for Goodman.

Goodman is a leading provider of warehouse space globally. We have been ranked the number one developer in Europe for the last four years and we are a leader in our other markets around the world.

We’re also laying strong foundations in the US, where we currently have a large development and investment pipeline primarily in Los Angeles and New Jersey. With customer demand driving

increased development activity, we see our US development and investment pipeline growing toward $4 billion over the short to medium term.

We take a long-term investment view and avoid short-term

expediency. This focus and our contemporary nature resonate strongly with capital partners.

Page | 3

At Goodman we refer to our investors as partners and our tenants as customers, reflecting the value of the long-term nature of the relationships that we build together over many years.

The ongoing execution of Goodman’s long-term plan is underpinned by our skilled and dedicated team of people across 16 countries. At this time, I would like to thank them for their efforts and the ongoing value they are creating for our stakeholders.

I’d like to finish by restating that Goodman is looking to the long term. Our focus is on the future and the further development of Goodman into a truly global business, and one that is also at the forefront in the evolution of the warehouse sector.

Our operating activities around the world are performing strongly, with key drivers of growth being our diversification and quality of assets. Goodman’s unwavering focus is on building a great business for the long term. The investment decisions we are making today will build a business that is growing and sustainable over the long-term, and one that is well planned, governed and managed.

Page | 4

On that note, we are pleased to reaffirm our operating earnings per security guidance for FY16 of 39.4 cents, up 6% on last year. Importantly for investors, our forecast full year distribution is 23.8 cents per security, up 7% on last year.

In closing, we look forward to the future with excitement and to the value that we can create together.

Thank you.
