Dear Sir
GOODMAN GROUP EMPLOYEE EQUITY OFFERS
We wish to advise of employee equity offers, pursuant to Listing Rule 3.10.3, that comprise of an offer of Performance Rights under the Group’s Long Term Incentive Plan ( LTIP ) and restricted securities under the Goodman Tax Exempt Plan ( GTEP ).
Offer of Performance Rights under the LTIP
1. Class of Securities
Performance Rights in respect of Goodman Group stapled securities ( Stapled Securities ) pursuant to offers to Eligible Employees (as defined in the LTIP rules) under the LTIP approved by Securityholders at the Annual General Meeting held on 30 November 2009. Each Performance Right is a right to be issued a Stapled Security without payment.

The following is a summary of the principal terms of the Performance Rights Offer as previously announced in connection with Securityholder approval at the Annual General Meeting on 30 November 2009.
On each of three vesting dates (see below), each participant will be issued Stapled Securities equal to 1/3 of the total number of Performance Rights granted to that participant subject to the following conditions:

Under the LTIP, 50% of each grant will be tested against a relative Total Securityholder Return ( TSR ) hurdle and 50% against a growth in Earnings per Security ( EPS ) hurdle. The performance hurdles in respect of each grant will be tested in respect of the period 1 July 2009 to 30 June 2012 (the Performance Testing Period ).
TSR is based upon security price movements on ASX plus distributions paid in respect of those securities, as determined by the Board. Vesting of 50% of a participant’s Performance Rights will be based upon the TSR achieved by Goodman over the three year period 1 July 2009 to 30 June 2012 as compared to the TSR achieved by companies in the S&P/ASX 200 for that same period in accordance with the following formula:
| TSR Performance in | Proportion of Performance Rights subject to TSR hurdle |
|---|---|
| Performance Testing | vesting |
| Period Compared to | |
| ASX 200 | |
| Less than the 51st | 0% |
| Percentile | |
| At 51st Percentile | 50% |
| Greater than 51st | 50% plus additional 2% for every 1% increase in percentile |
| Percentile but less than | rank |
| 76thPercentile | |
| At 76th Percentile or | 100% |
| above |
EPS is defined as average annual operating profit (as determined by the Board) divided by the number of securities on issue. Vesting of 50% of a participant’s Performance Rights will be based upon the aggregate EPS achieved by Goodman over the three year period 1 July 2009 to 30 June 2012 compared to the EPS Targets and EPS Stretch Targets established by the Board for the period as per the table below:
| Aggregate EPS in | Proportion of Performance Rights subject to EPS hurdle |
|---|---|
| Performance Testing | vesting |
| Period | |
| Less than Target EPS | 0% |
| Target EPS | 50% |
| Greater than TargetEPS but less thanStretch Target EPS | Proportion in a “straight line” between 50% and 100% |
| Stretch Target EPS orabove | 100% |
The Board determined that the Target EPS for FY10 is $0.052 per security. The Target EPS for FY11 and FY12 will be advised around the commencement of each of those financial years. The Stretch Targets will be set prior to but notified after the end of the relevant financial year.
The three vesting dates applicable to the grant of Performance Rights are:
