the remuneration philosophy, policies and practices with particular emphasis on linking and alignment of remuneration to corporate and individual objectives and performance;
the structure of remuneration for Directors and executives including for executives only (including Executive Directors) short and long-term performance based remuneration;
the information on equity schemes within the Group; and
the details of remuneration for Directors and executives for the year ended 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2008.

Securityholders will be asked to vote at the Meetings on a resolution to adopt the Remuneration Report. The vote is advisory only and will not bind the Directors or the Group. However, Directors may take into account the outcome of the vote when considering relevant remuneration matters in the future.

ReCoMMeNdAtIoN

Directors recommend that Securityholders vote in favour of adopting this resolution.

Agenda Item 4 — Increase in maximum aggregate of Non-executive directors’ remuneration

Securityholder approval is sought to increase the maximum aggregate of Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration by $500,000 from $1,450,000 per annum to $1,950,000 per annum for the current financial year, being 2009/10. Approval for this resolution is sought for the purpose of clause 10.9 of Mirvac’s Constitution and rule 10.17 of the ASX Listing Rules.

Details of Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration for the year ended 30 June 2009 are set out in the Remuneration Report on pages 12 to 23 of the Group’s 2009 Annual Report which is available at www.mirvac.com.

The maximum aggregate remuneration of Non-Executive Directors was last increased by $250,000 per annum as approved at the Group’s 2008 Annual General and General Meetings and before that by $200,000 as approved at the Group’s 2006 Annual General and General Meetings.

The current remuneration for Non-Executive Directors is close to reaching the previously approved remuneration cap of $1,450,000. This sum is benchmarked by independent professional consultants on an annual basis against Non-Executive Directors’ remuneration of comparable organisations.

increased expectations of the community, governments and the courts in relation to the role of public company directors, has meant directors need to commit an ever increasing amount of time and resources to their role.

The increase in remuneration is being sought to address the issues raised above and also to provide the Board with the flexibility to increase the number of NonExecutive Directors on the Board from the current number of five, as and when considered appropriate, to ensure the Group continues to have the resources available to attract and retain the highest quality candidates for Board positions. it is intended that this will ensure the requisite balance of skills and experience continue to be maintained on the Group Board.

ReCoMMeNdAtIoN

As the Non-Executive Directors have a personal interest in the proposed resolution in item 4, the Directors make no recommendation as to how Securityholders should vote.

Securityholders should judge for themselves whether or not the increase should be approved.

Agenda Item 5 — Participation by the Managing director in the long-term Performance Plan

This resolution is being put to Securityholders for the purpose of approving the participation by the Managing Director (Mr Nicholas Collishaw) in the Group’s Long-Term Performance Plan (“LTP Plan”).

MIRVAC GRoUP NOTiCE OF ANNuAL GENERAL AND GENERAL MEETiNGS 2009 05

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL ANd GENERAL MEETINGS

BACkGRoUNd

The Group Board believes that the offer of performance rights under the LTP Plan is an important part of the Managing Director’s overall remuneration package and to the Group’s retention plan. The performance rights are designed to provide a long term incentive to pursue the growth and success of the Group. The LTP Plan is focused on individuals whose roles and contributions are identified as critical to the continued growth and success of the Group over the next three years.

Participation in the long-term Performance Plan

under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, no director can acquire securities under an employee incentive scheme without Securityholder approval. Accordingly, approval is sought for Mr Collishaw to participate in the LTP Plan for this financial year (2009/10).

The maximum number of performance rights that may be granted to Mr Collishaw will be equal to $2,435,000 divided by the one month average security price (preceding the grant), adjusted for the exclusion of distributions during the performance period.

The Group intends to offer the performance rights to Mr Collishaw after the draft legislation relating to the taxation treatment of employee share schemes (Schedule 1 to Tax Laws Amendment (2009 Budget Measures No. 2) Bill 2009) passes into law (which is currently expected to be before 31 December 2009).

As part of the Group’s annual remuneration review process, independent data was analysed to benchmark the above awards against current market practice for positions comparable to that occupied by Mr Collishaw.

The potential award under the LTP Plan proposed for Mr Collishaw was appropriately benchmarked against, and consistent with, entitlements offered to executives of comparable organisations to Mirvac with similar duties and responsibilities to that of Mr Collishaw.

in summary, the terms under which the proposed award of performance rights to be made to Mr Collishaw are as follows:

— Two performance conditions have been imposed which must be satisfied over the three year vesting period before any entitlements to the performance rights granted vest. The following two measures each have a 50 per cent weighting:

Further details on the performance conditions are contained in the Remuneration Report contained within the 2009 Annual Report at pages 12 to 23.
The performance rights have a term of 10 years. However if the threshold level of the above performance condition is not met by the end of the vesting period, all of the performance rights will automatically lapse.
No hedging of these unvested performance rights is permitted.
The performance rights carry no voting rights and no entitlements to participate in any distributions.
There is no intention to retest the performance condition over the vesting period.
On vesting, a performance right will automatically convert into a Group stapled security.
At the Board’s discretion, entitlements to Group stapled securities on vesting of the performance rights will be satisfied by either an allotment of new securities or by the purchase on market of existing securities.
No loans will be provided under the LTP Plan to Mr Collishaw.
if Mr Collishaw ceases to be employed by the Group prior to the vesting of these performance rights then:
if his employment ceases for reasons of an “accelerated vesting event” as that term is defined in the Plan Rules, then the individual may be eligible for a pro-rata continued participation in accordance with the Plan Rules and at the Board’s discretion; or
if his employment ceases for reasons other than an “accelerated vesting event” the performance rights will automatically lapse.

Pursuant to approval by Securityholders at the 2008 Annual General and General Meetings, details of the awards made in the year to 30 June 2009 to Mr Collishaw under the LTP Plan are set out on pages 97, 98 and 103 of the 2009 Annual Report.

No other Director is entitled to participate in the LTP Plan in the current year.

if approved by Securityholders, the Group intends to offer the performance rights to Mr Collishaw by 31 December 2009 but in any event by no later than 18 November 2010.

Relative Total Securityholder Return (“TSR”); and
Absolute Return on Equity (“ROE”).

— The Group’s relative TSR is calculated by reference to the TSR of a comparator group of peer entities to Mirvac in the property sector including industry leaders such as Lend Lease Corporation Limited, Stockland Group and Westfield Group.

ReCoMMeNdAtIoN

The Directors (with Mr Collishaw abstaining) recommend that Securityholders vote in favour of this resolution. Mr Collishaw makes no recommendation in view of his personal interest in the matter.

— The ROE hurdle will be based on an internal performance range below which no performance rights will vest. The applicable range will be established prior to grant and will be disclosed in the Remuneration Report for the 2009/2010 financial year.

06 MIRVAC GRoUP NOTiCE OF ANNuAL GENERAL AND GENERAL MEETiNGS 2009

Agenda Item 6 — New Issue of shares

During the past 12 months, the Group has made two institutional placements of stapled securities:

an institutional Placement in November 2008; and — an institutional Placement in June 2009;

both of which were advised to the market at the particular time of issue (the “issues”).

The issues have increased the Group’s capacity to continue to effectively manage its capital requirements, to fund its development pipeline and to take advantage of future opportunities that may arise in the current market conditions.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1, imposes a limit on the number of securities that a company can issue or agree to issue in a 12 month period without Securityholder approval. Generally a company may not, without Securityholder approval, issue in any 12 month period, more than 15 per cent of the number of securities on issue 12 months before the date of issue.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 provides that an issue of securities made without Securityholder approval under Listing Rule 7.1 may be treated as having been made with approval for the purpose of ASX Listing Rule 7.1, if each of the following apply:

a) the issue did not breach ASX Listing Rule 7.1; and
b) holders of ordinary securities subsequently approve the issue.

Accordingly, Securityholders are requested to subsequently approve the issues in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

Please note that if Securityholders approve the resolutions under item 6, any future equity raisings by the Group would remain subject to the 15 per cent limit set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

a) Capital raising — Institutional Placement in November 2008

i) Number of securities allotted: 80,000,000.
ii) Price at which the securities were issued: $0.90 per stapled security.
iii) The terms of the securities:

These securities ranked pari passu (equally in all respects) with existing issued Group stapled securities upon their allotment on 5 December 2008 and subsequent quotation by the ASX.

b) Capital raising — Institutional Placement in June 2009

i) Number of securities allotted:152,515,180.
ii) Price at which the securities were issued: $1.00 per stapled security.

iii) The terms of the securities:

These securities ranked pari passu (equally in all respects) with existing issued Group stapled securities from their allotment on 24 June 2009 and subsequent quotation by the ASX. Note these securities were not entitled to receive the June 2009 distribution.
iv) The name of the allottees:
The securities were issued to institutional, professional and other wholesale investors who were identified by uBS AG, Australia Branch and Macquarie Capital Advisers Limited, the underwriters of the institutional placement.
v) The use (or intended use) of the funds raised: The proceeds of the issue were used to repay debt and for general working capital purposes.

Approval

a) Securityholders are requested to approve and ratify the issue of 80,000,000 stapled securities at an issue price of $0.90 per stapled security; and
b) Securityholders are requested to approve and ratify the issue of 152,515,180 stapled securities at an issue price of $1.00 per stapled security.

The Directors consider that the approval of the issues of the stapled securities described above is in the Group’s best interests. it provides flexibility to issue up to the maximum number of stapled securities permitted under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 in the next 12 months (without Securityholder approval), should it be required.

ReCoMMeNdAtIoN

The Directors recommend that Securityholders vote in favour of these resolutions.

Voting exclusion statements — definition of ‘associate’ in items 4, 5 and 6 the relevant definition of associate is in sections 11 and 13-17 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). Section 13 is to be applied as if it was not confined to associate references in Chapter 7 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).

iv) The name of the allottees:

The securities were issued to institutional, professional and other wholesale investors who were identified by J.P. Morgan Australia Limited, the underwriter of the institutional placement.

v) The use (or intended use) of the funds raised: The proceeds of the issue were used to repay debt and for general working capital purposes.

MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

chairman’s & managing director’s revieW

throughout Mirvac group’s (“Mirvac” or the “group”) 37-year history, market cycles have provided different challenges and opportunities and it has been the group’s ability to be realistic, adaptive and responsive to these difficult periods that has ensured Mirvac’s continued success.

the 2009 financial year was characterised by a rapid deterioration in global economic conditions. australia, like all established economies worldwide, has been impacted by the global downturn and has felt the effects of a withdrawal of debt capital from lenders, falling asset values and a rapid decline in consumer confidence. as a result, real estate markets have been one of the hardest hit sectors.

the need to respond decisively and immediately to this challenging environment was imperative to our ongoing success as a leading real estate group.

in august 2008, we delivered the group’s strategy stating that we would simplify operational activities, cut costs and strengthen our balance sheet. since then, we have undertaken a number of capital management initiatives that have significantly bolstered our financial and liquidity position. we have also simplified the group’s operating model and disposed of a number of non-core activities, realising capital efficiencies.

our strategy remained focused on our core strengths of owning and managing australian investment grade properties, which provide stable income streams through our secure tenant covenants, and delivering australia’s pre-eminent residential developments. importantly, we remained australian focused with 99.2 per cent of our operations based in australia.

MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

chairman’s & managing director’s revieW

the operating profit (profit before specific non-cash and other significant items) for the group was $200.8 million, which was in line with the guidance provided on 5 november 2008 and high end range guidance provided on 4 June 2009. the statutory net loss after tax for the group was $1.08 billion. this loss was impacted by the investment Division’s property revaluations of negative $487.2 million, and the share of net loss of associates and joint ventures accounted for using the equity method of $158.0 million. additionally, the group impaired goodwill, management rights and other intangibles totalling $273.6 million and made a provision for loss on inventory of $186.5 million.

operating earnings[ 1] were 13.4 cents per stapled security and the net tangible asset (“nta”) per security was $1.72.

the 2009 financial results reflect the difficult operating environment and your Board and senior management team spent a considerable amount of time on capital management initiatives to ensure the group was able to withstand market pressures and continue with its stated strategy.

During the year we revised our distribution policy to distribute only trust taxable earnings. as stated in our letter to you on 25 March 2009, this decision was not taken lightly. it was considered in the best long-term interest of securityholders to further preserve capital and increase the strength of the group’s balance sheet and cash flow position during these challenging times. Distributions for the full year totalled 8.0 cents per security. the majority of the a-reit market has since followed suit in reducing distributions.

in February, we completed the refinancing of our syndicated facility which ensured the group had a stronger liquidity profile and has allowed us to meet all debt maturities and capital commitments to and currently beyond the 2011 financial year.

we undertook two successful capital raisings during the year; a $500 million capital raising in november 2008 and a $1.1 billion capital raising in June 2009. Both were considered necessary to strengthen our balance sheet and ensure the group was in a position to withstand the challenging market.

the capital raising in June placed Mirvac in the enviable position of being one of australia’s lowest geared reits at 18.7 per cent and it has positioned the group with enough flexibility to accelerate delivery of its strategy. this ensures we are in the best possible position to capitalise on opportunities as markets recover.

post year end, standard & poor’s recognised the work we had undertaken to strengthen our capital management position and upgraded our credit rating to BBB with a positive outlook.

oPeRAtIoNAL UPdAte

Investment

Mirvac’s investment Division (comprising Mirvac property trust (“Mpt” or the “trust”) and Mirvac asset Management (“MaM”)) continued to deliver the core earnings for the group with its strong $3.7 billion domestic focused property portfolio.

the investment Division has investments in 58 assets that are well diversified across asset type and geographical location, with weightings to commercial properties (44 per cent of the portfolio) and retail centres (40 per cent of the portfolio), and to the new south wales and victorian markets (75.9 per cent of the portfolio). importantly, commercial supply in these markets has been relatively benign, and therefore the vacancy rate and associated downward pressure on rents are expected to be more contained.

the work our internal leasing team — MaM — undertook during the year ensured the trust maintained its stable portfolio metrics with secure tenant covenants, minimal lease expiries and a high portfolio occupancy rate of 95.9 per cent.

our portfolio remains well positioned to deliver the group’s 2010 financial year earnings. approximately 56.8 per cent of the portfolio’s income is derived from leases to tenants from government, asX-listed and multinational organisations. Further adding to the security of our earnings, 93.9 per cent of our rent reviews for 2010 financial year are fixed or Cpi based.

our focus for the investment Division is to secure additional stable recurring income which will be driven by improving the quality and size of our portfolio through redevelopment and acquisition of australian investment grade assets.

development

the Development Division’s financial performance was impacted by the impairments made to the development inventory. overall, these impairments brought the carrying value of non-core assets back to disposal value, allowing the group to exit these projects in the near term. this is in line with our intention to reshape our residential development portfolio and focus on core, large-scale projects — a key competitive strength for us.

australia’s residential market has continued to show considerable resilience in a challenging global economic environment. this has been characterised by low interest rates, an undersupply of housing, strong population growth and increased participation from the First home owners market.

During the year, the Development Division continued to deliver outstanding residential projects across new south wales, victoria, Queensland and western australia. the Division achieved 1,574 lot settlements and secured future income with $759 million of exchanged contracts.[2] the Division is currently developing approximately 4,400 lots, representing 17 per cent of our total pipeline of approximately 25,000 lots.

1) excluding specific non-cash and other significant items.

2) including Mirvac’s share of joint venture interest and Mivac managed funds.

02 MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

a key part of the Development Division’s success lies in its flexible and adaptable delivery model. our model allows us to adapt our products to suit rapidly changing market conditions, which has been especially valuable over the past year as we escalated production in our land and housing business to capitalise on the First home owners boost stimulus and delayed non-residential developments until market conditions improve.

our business remains well placed to take advantage of upcoming opportunities as the market recovers. our strategy is focused on developing large-scale, masterplanned, integrated, generational projects. Key examples of these projects include our developments at gainsborough greens in Queensland, Burswood in western australia, rockbank in victoria and green square in new south wales, where we are the preferred proponent.

Investment Management

investment Management’s (previously referred to as Funds Management) operating performance for the 2009 financial year was impacted by downward pressure on asset revaluations, constrained credit and reduced transactional activity resulting in reduced fee income being received from the funds it manages.

we continued with the rationalisation of the noncore and unscalable funds, exiting from the Domaine funds and the tourist park Fund, and entering into a heads of agreement to dispose of the Mirvac aqua joint venture business.

our strategy is to ensure investment Management continues to source capital for our two core divisions — investment and Development — through the establishment of investment partnerships with major financial institutions and institutional investors. it will continue to deliver and build on its wholesale capital raising capability to support the group.

hotel Management

our hotel Management business remained one of the leading managers of hotels and resorts in australia, managing 5,616 rooms across 44 hotels. the business manages properties under a variety of brands, including, the sebel, Citigate, Marriott, Quay west and sea temple.

the challenging economic environment had a negative effect on the hospitality industry in general. however, our well located, well regarded hotels ensured the business unit maintained a steady financial performance.

we have seen that the changed economic conditions have resulted in more opportunities for hotel management contracts as owners look for established hotel operators with strong brands and a track record of producing results.

BoARd ChANGes

in august 2009 we announced the retirement of rick turner, a non-executive Director, from the Board. rick has had a long and distinguished career and is highly regarded in the australian business community.

at 72, rick has been a Board member for nine years, including his time on the Board of the James Fielding group, prior to its merger with Mirvac. the Board has benefited greatly from his experience and he has been an invaluable member, overseeing a number of strategic decisions including the recent recapitalisation which has underpinned Mirvac’s strengthened financial position. we thank him for his commitment and dedication to the group.

the search for rick’s replacement is underway with the Board expecting to announce his replacement prior to 31 December 2009.

in august, we also announced the appointment of sonya harris as general Counsel and Company secretary. with over 18 years of experience in the legal industry, sonya brings her breadth of knowledge in the property industry, and her broad property and commercial legal experience to her role at Mirvac.

ReMUNeRAtIoN

recognising the impact on securityholders over the past year, the annual remuneration review was suspended and no annual bonuses were granted to any employee across the group.

however, we recognise that the key to our continuing success lies in retaining and attracting high performing people. it is their commitment to achieving the best possible results, and their dedication to the Mirvac philosophy of excellence that has resulted in the group’s achievements during this challenging year.

a key focus for the next financial year is to ensure we retain our staff whilst being fair and realistic about remuneration. our remuneration policy is detailed on page 12 of this report.

the Board human resources Committee has reviewed the remuneration programs and reaffirmed several important principles. Fixed pay must be fair and consistent with the relevant market. the short-term incentive plan should reward financial and non-financial performance. the long-term performance plan is critical for aligning executives and securityholders and will continue, pending passage of the relevant Federal government legislation.

During the year, the hotels & resorts business undertook an additional five new hotel management contracts, and our focus for this business is to expand management contracts in regions across australia in which our existing brands are under represented.

MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

chairman’s & managing director’s revieW

the group has further bolstered the relationship between performance and remuneration through the implementation of an improved performance appraisal system. all salaried employees will have key performance indicators (“Kpis”) established across five critical areas. these are Finance, strategy, Corporate responsibility, Customer/stakeholder and people. these Kpis will be tracked through an online system which will incorporate half and full-year performance appraisals. outcomes achieved through the performance appraisal system will be one of the primary factors in determining remuneration each year.

CoRPoRAte ResPoNsIBILIty ANd sUstAINABILIty

Mirvac’s commitment to Corporate responsibility and sustainability has not diminished over the past year and it remains a key pillar of our business.

Mirvac’s in-house design and development capabilities have resulted in three properties receiving green star ratings — 5 rider Boulevard, new south wales (4 star office Design v2); 101 Miller street, new south wales (5 star office Design v2); and the Mirvac designed Bond university Mirvac school of sustainable Development, Queensland (6 star education pilot).

a further three properties achieved official naBers ratings with one of these, the sebel Citigate albert park awarded 3.5 stars for energy and 4.5 stars for water under the naBers hotel energy and hotel water ratings, only the second in australia to receive this recognition.

we have also continued our collaboration with Bond university in the Mirvac school of sustainable Development — australia’s first tertiary program in sustainable development. we are proud of our role in establishing the school, whose graduates will be much needed industry leaders in implementing responsible and practical sustainability management initiatives in the business world.

Mirvac has received numerous awards for its corporate responsibility and sustainability performance including the prestigious and highly contested property Council of australia, 2009 rider levett Bucknall awards for innovation and excellence, award for sustainable Development for the refurbished 101 Miller street. listings were maintained on the Ftse4good, Ftse4good australia 30, goldman sachs JBwere Climate Disclosure leadership and Dow Jones sustainability asia pacific 2008/09 indices.

oUtLooK

we are starting to see encouraging signs within the economy as house prices and investment values are stabilising and consumer confidence is increasing.

the fundamentals and resilient nature of our real estate markets have ensured australian house prices have not fallen like those in the united states and the united Kingdom. across all our residential projects in australia, we are seeing an increase in enquiries from second and third home owners, as well as investors, as the potential for capital gain turns to reality.

the strong Mirvac brand and our reputation for quality developments in sought-after locations have reinforced our leading position within the australian residential market. with approximately $759 million of exchanged contracts, our Development business remains in a solid position.

our investment trust will continue to underpin the group’s earnings for the 2010 financial year. we have ensured that our assets are well positioned to maximise income growth and value through the active asset management undertaken by our internalised management team.

the pursuit of growth opportunities will remain consistent with our simplified strategy. we will only focus on acquisitions and projects that match our core competencies of ownership and management of investment grade assets, or large-scale development projects.

Fundamentally, we believe it is our ability to respond decisively to changing economic conditions that has set us apart. our operating model has been streamlined and our focus for the next financial year is to complete the restructuring of the business. we have challenged and changed our business processes and procedures, resulting in over $25 million of recurring cost savings. we will continue to focus on ensuring our operating model is efficient and able to deliver future opportunities.

Finally, our history of managing through market cycles for some 37 years, our premium brand, sound financial and capital management position and dedicated and highly skilled employees ensures Mirvac is well placed to continue as one of australia’s leading real estate groups.

we thank you for your continued support.

MIRVAC FoUNdAtIoN

the Mirvac Foundation was established to connect with those most in need in the communities in which the group operates. the theme the Foundation supports is homelessness — housing and accommodation are the cornerstones of our business and the lifeblood of our culture. the Mirvac Foundation provides funding for and encourages volunteering with selected charities supporting the homeless around australia. Mirvac has committed to provide salaried employees with one paid volunteering day each year in support of the local community.

the statutory net loss after tax for the group for the financial year 2009 was $1.08 billion (2008: net profit $171.8 million). the operating profit (profit before specific non-cash and other significant items) was $200.8 million in line with the high range npat guidance provided on 4 June 2009 (2008: $352.2 million).

operating profit is a financial measure which is not prescribed by australian accounting standards and represents the profit under australian accounting standards adjusted for specific non-cash items and other significant items such as property revaluations. Management considers operating profit to reflect the core earnings of Mirvac.

Investment division

as at 30 June 2009, the investment Division (comprising Mirvac property trust (“Mpt” or “the trust”) and Mirvac asset Management (“MaM”)) had a total portfolio value of $3.7 billion, with investments in 58 assets, covering the commercial, retail, industrial and hotel sectors, as well as investments in a number of Mirvac’s other managed funds.

the investment Division’s statutory net loss before tax was $546.4 million, and operating profit before tax was $242.7 million, which was primarily a result of no gain on asset sales made during the period.

valuations on all of the Division’s 58 assets were undertaken during the 12 months to 30 June 2009 resulting in a total revaluation decline of $526.1 million.[4 ] Mirvac’s total portfolio weighted average capitalisation rate has increased by 100 basis points to 7.6 per cent. During the year external valuations were undertaken on 45 assets (83.0 per cent of the total portfolio by book value) with the remaining 13 assets internally valued.

Despite the challenging operating environment, the trust maintained its stable portfolio metrics with secure tenant covenants, minimal lease expiries and high portfolio occupancy of 95.9 per cent. the trust’s earnings are highly visible and secure with 93.9 per cent of Fy2010 rent reviews fixed or Cpi, and 56.8 per cent of revenue derived from asX-listed, multinational and government tenants.

Mpt’s development pipeline remained on track delivering a new commercial building, two refurbished retail shopping centres and an industrial warehouse.

Key highlights in the commercial portfolio for the 12 months ended 30 June 2009 included:

80,000 sqm of space leased which included two key renewals across 20,500 sqm;
5 rider Boulevard, rhodes, was completed. the a-grade building covers 25,000 sqm of lettable area and was fully leased on completion;
occupancy rate of 98.1 per cent; and
5.8 per cent like-for-like income growth.

Key highlights in the retail portfolio for the 12 months ended 30 June 2009 included:

45,000 sqm of space leased;
second stage of Moonee ponds Central was completed in March 2009. the extension comprises 11,366 sqm of lettable area and is anchored by Kmart and First Choice liquor;
occupancy rate of 96.7 per cent; and

directors’ report

Key highlights in the industrial portfolio for the 12 months ended 30 June 2009 included:

30,000 sqm of space leased;
Building 5 at nexus industry park was completed in July 2008. the 12,339 sqm facility was fully leased to hpM; and
occupancy rate of 90.8 per cent.

operating in this volatile economic environment, the Division remains focused on active asset management, ensuring income security, a balanced lease expiry profile and value maximisation.

the Division’s strategy is to increase investment in australian investment grade commercial and retail property assets focused on the east coast of australia.

Investment Management

the focus for Mirvac’s investment Management business unit (“MiM”) is to support the group’s activities — investment and Development — and source capital for the two core Divisions through the establishment of investment partnerships with major financial institutions and institutional investors.

the difficult economic climate continued to impact MiM as a whole. a combination of downward pressure on asset valuations, constrained credit and reduced transactional activity has resulted in reduced fee income being received from MiM managed funds.

MiM recorded a statutory net loss before tax of $221.0 million and a net operating loss before tax of $42.3 million, which was impacted by the following items:

$16.7 million in impairments relating to the Mezzanine Capital loans;
$12.6 million in one-off commitment payments; and
$1.9 million of redundancy costs.

rationalisation of non-core and unscaleable funds continued during the period with:

Domaine Funds — disposed to australian property growth Fund;
Mirvac tourist park Fund — Deed of appointment and retirement has been entered into, and subject to a successful unitholder Meeting to be held on 3 september 2009, the transfer of management rights to valuestream investment Management limited is expected to take place in mid-september 2009;
Mirvac industrial trust [asX: MiX] — management are currently reviewing strategies including expressions of interest in connection to a realisation of the trust’s portfolio; and
Mirvac aQua — heads of agreement has been entered into to dispose of the joint venture.

hotel Management

hotels & resorts is a fee-based business with three separate types of management agreements: leasing; management lots; and management agreements. the business unit continued to expand during the period within existing markets bringing the total hotels managed to 44, covering 5,616 rooms across australasia.

Concern regarding consumer spending, businesses cutting costs on travel and conferences and influenza a (h1n1) (also referred to as “swine flu”) all had a negative influence on demand. Despite these influences, the group’s hotels & resorts business unit maintained a steady financial performance.

For the year ended 30 June 2009, hotels & resorts achieved a statutory net profit before tax of $12.3 million and operating profit before tax of $13.7 million.

During the 12 months to 30 June 2009, the business continued with its strategic expansion of hotel brands into existing markets with the addition of five new hotels under management during the period, including:

harbour rocks hotel sydney (55 rooms);
hotel lindum Melbourne (59 rooms);
the sebel harbourside Kiama (88 rooms);
Quay west resort & spa Falls Creek (40 rooms); and
the sebel Mandurah perth (84 rooms).

hotels & resorts will continue to increase the number of hotels managed in australia and new Zealand, focusing on regions which are under-represented by Mirvac’s existing brands.

development division

the group’s Development Division conducts residential development across new south wales, victoria, Queensland and western australia. Market conditions remained challenging across all states due to the ongoing affects of the global credit crisis.

the Division’s statutory net loss before tax was $354.7 million and operating profit before tax was $29.1 million. the Division’s results were impacted by the following impairments:

non-core inventory was written down by $128.8 million;
completed and unsold inventory was written down by $35.2 million;
core projects were written down by $22.5 million; and
loans and investments in joint ventures and associates were written down by $50.6 million.

non-core assets were written-down in order to facilitate accelerated disposal. this will enable the repositioning of the portfolio as the Division focuses on generational, large scale projects in line with the group’s strategy.

MiM continues to deliver upon its strategy of simplifying its activities and focusing on its wholesale capital raising capability to support Mirvac’s core businesses.

08 MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

Despite the negative sentiment, the Division continued to deliver quality residential product resulting in the settlement of 1,574 lots as at 30 June 2009, with strong sales results in the western sydney projects, following federal and state governments’ First home Buyer stimulus packages.

state based settlements to the 12 months to 30 June 2009:

	house/land	apartments	total
nsw	47.5%	11.1%	58.6%
viC	8.0%	0.3%	8.3%
QlD	7.4%	7.2%	14.6%
wa	11.4%	7.1%	18.5%
total	74.2%	25.8%	100.0%

the Division secured future income with $759 million of exchanged contracts (including Mirvac share of joint venture interest and Mirvac managed funds). Key projects included tennyson reach in Brisbane, the royal, newcastle, yarra’s edge river homes, victoria, rhodes, in sydney and Mandurah, perth.

the Division will continue to focus on delivering australia’s pre-eminent residential developments, and concentrating on large master planned communities and generational projects. rationalisation of non-core development projects and further refinement of the divisional operating model will allow capital to be repatriated and redeployed into large master planned communities matching the group’s stated strategy.

oUtLooK

Mirvac continues to focus on its major competitive strength of large-scale, pre-eminent residential developments and the proactive management of australian investment grade assets.

Mirvac is driving its core businesses with the aim of ensuring it is well positioned to take advantage of opportunities.

eNVIRoNMeNtAL ReGULAtIoNs

Business Conduct — including sustainability in decision making and reporting performance.
Mirvac people — driving a high performance culture committed to sustainability.
stakeholders — meeting needs, engendering loyalty and enhancing communities.
supply Chain — balancing financial, environmental and social factors.
environmental impact — minimising Mirvac’s impact on the environment.
Climate Change action — reduce greenhouse gas emissions and readying Mirvac for a carbon constrained future.

Mirvac is currently actioning more than 100 commitments or performance targets against the above priority areas.

within Mirvac’s health safety and environment performance reporting systems, including internal and external audits and inspections, no incidents of significant harm to the environment occurred. Mirvac’s development projects across australia were issued a total of 23 environmental infringement notices throughout the reporting period with a total value of $13,300.

the notices related to minor incidents of environmental impact at development sites and included:

eight instances of inadequate erosion control with the potential to pollute stormwater;
six instances of inadequate sediment barriers;

4.	equityinstruments held byKeyManagement personnel(“KMp”)
5.	other benefts
6.	additional information

the information provided in this remuneration report has been audited as required by section 308 (3c) of the Corporations act 2001.

1. PRINCIPLes Used to deteRMINe the NAtURe ANd AMoUNt oF ReMUNeRAtIoN

the following sections provide information on the group’s approach to remuneration, the structure of remuneration for Directors and KMp and the relationship to Mirvac performance.

a) Remuneration strategy, policies and practices

Mirvac’s remuneration strategy creates the platform from which all pay decisions are made. the strategy defines the framework for setting fixed pay and the design parameters of short and long-term incentive programs. the purpose of remuneration at Mirvac is to support the execution of the business strategy. this requires programs that reward annual and long-term value creation and that retain the individuals most capable of delivering successful outcomes for securityholders. Further information on main pay components, comparison to market benchmarks and related performance criteria is provided under the discussion of remuneration structure.

the human resources Committee, consisting of five independent, non-executive Directors, is responsible for reviewing the remuneration strategy annually. it advises the full Board of Directors on remuneration policies and practices generally, and makes specific recommendations on remuneration packages, incentives and other terms of employment for non-executive and executive Directors, including the Managing Director, as well as KMp.

the human resources Committee has access to Mirvac’s general Manager, human resources and to the advice and data of independent, professional remuneration consultants as required to ensure the group’s base remuneration and incentive scheme practices remain consistent with the Board’s remuneration strategy and current market practice, particularly within the industry sectors in which Mirvac operates.

senior executive remuneration, incentives and other terms of employment are reviewed annually by the human resources Committee in conjunction with recommendations made by the Managing Director. the review considers individual results against key performance indicators, relevant business performance, as well as the group’s overall results and returns to its securityholders. the group’s performance appraisal system is a core component of its remuneration review. it is used to review past performance and set future objectives and development plans for employees at all levels.

at the beginning of each financial year, clear objectives are set for all employees, in order to provide clarity and focus to the individual and to the organisation as to what is expected to be achieved in the ensuing period.

the objectives used to evaluate executive Directors and KMp are based on the following Key responsibility areas:

finance;
strategy;
customer/stakeholder;
corporate responsibility; and — people.

additional business or divisional specific objectives may also be set by the Managing Director each year, which are also reviewed by the human resources Committee. the Committee also sets specific targets and key performance indicators annually for the Managing Director.

annual recommendations for individuals are submitted by the individual’s manager to their manager for approval, ensuring that any pay increases or bonuses have two levels of approval, reducing subjectivity and maintaining relativities. as noted above the remuneration of the direct reports to the Managing Director is reviewed by the human resources Committee following review by, and on the recommendation of, the Managing Director.

12 MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

b) structure of remuneration

the employee population at Mirvac is segmented into four groups to determine participation in various pay programs as shown in the table below:

			long-term	long-term
		short-term	performance	performance
segment	Fixedpay	incentives	rights	options
senior executives	3	3	3	3
executives	3	3	3
Managers	3	3
staff	3	eligible for discretionarybonus only

remuneration approaches vary between these levels in order to recognise their relative impact on Mirvac’s performance and differences in market pay practices as follows:

KMp, other senior executives and executives are eligible, at the discretion of the human resources Committee, to participate in the short-term incentive (“sti”) plan, and the long-term incentive (“lti”) plan. the lti plan is limited to these two segments because they have the largest strategic impact on the long-term success of Mirvac. along with driving performance, the lti plan is also necessary to facilitate executive security ownership;
managers are eligible for the sti plan based on their responsibility for achieving annual objectives; and
remaining staff will be eligible for a discretionary bonus where management recognises that exceptional individual performance has been achieved.

to assess market pay practices and quantum, Mirvac refers primarily to an australian reit peer group and secondly to general industry peer group based on market capitalisation size.

the Board has approved the following approach to determining Mirvac pay levels compared to the market:

fixed pay is targeted at the median of peer market data, recognising that differences in the scope of each role and individual performance will allow fixed pay to be in a range from below median (e.g. in the case of recent promotions) to above median for consistently high performers;
sti are positioned to deliver market median reward for “at target” performance and above market median reward for truly outstanding performance; and
lti are also positioned to deliver market median reward for “at target” performance and above market median reward for truly outstanding performance.

i) Fixed pay

the key drivers of fixed pay are:

individual appraisal based on the performance appraisal system; and
the competitive market environment for the individual’s skills and capabilities or the role the individual performs.

Fixed pay comprises base salary plus statutory superannuation contributions. employees also have the opportunity to sacrifice some of their base salary for additional voluntary superannuation contributions and / or novated leases for motor vehicles.

executives have the flexibility to allocate a portion of their base salary to certain other benefits. in such circumstances, the executive is also charged any resultant Fringe Benefits tax so that there is no additional cost to Mirvac in allowing the executive to take the particular benefit.

ii) stI

the key drivers of the annual sti awards are:

performance of the group overall, measured against pre-determined targets such as profitability, return on equity and operating cash flow; and
an individual’s contribution to the group or business unit’s financial performance as well as their own performance in meeting or exceeding pre-determined objectives as measured during the performance appraisal process.

short-term variable remuneration consists of an annual incentive payment as a cash bonus. the group holds a significant portion of total remuneration as variable and “at risk” if performance criteria are not met or exceeded each year. sti outcomes can range from zero per cent to double the established target depending upon results. the Managing Director’s participation is conditional upon Mirvac achieving a predetermined profit target.

Further information on these three distinct components is described in the following sections.

long-term performance (“ltp”) plan (current plan) Mirvac’s current ltp scheme was introduced in financial year 2008 following approval by securityholders at the 2007 annual general Meeting/general Meeting.

this plan applies to the Managing Director, executive Directors, senior executives and other executive employees only for reasons stated above.

under this plan participants are offered performance rights over Mirvac’s stapled securities which can only be exercised if certain performance conditions are achieved over a three year period. For the Managing Director, executive Directors and senior executives a portion of this award also comprises options over Mirvac’s stapled securities. grants of options will be limited to these employees only as they have the greatest capacity to drive the growth of the group. if the performance rights and options, or a portion of each, vest and are exercised, entitlements will be satisfied by either an allotment of new securities or by purchase on market of existing securities, at the Board’s discretion. non-executive Directors are not eligible to participate in this ltp plan. no loans have been made to participants under this plan.

the Board determined, on the recommendation of the human resources Committee, that the performance condition to apply to the vesting of the grants made during the financial year 2009 would be relative total securityholder return (“tsr”). For prior year grants, both tsr and absolute compound earnings per security (“eps”) growth were used. the use of eps was discontinued for this grant to reflect the increased focus on delivering securityholder value creation during the performance period. relative tsr continues to be the most objective measure of total value creation delivered to securityholders.

the Board reviews the performance conditions annually to determine the appropriate hurdles based on Mirvac’s strategy and prevailing market practice. Future grants may be based on different performance metrics, as dictated by business need. For the anticipated financial year 2010 grant, the Board is intending to implement a return on equity (“roe”) hurdle along with the continued use of tsr. the use of roe will emphasise the medium to long-term focus on the efficient use of capital.

the term of the performance rights is ten years and of the options five years. however if the performance rights and options do not vest at the end of the three year performance period, they will lapse. participants are prohibited from hedging both their unvested or vested performance rights and options. Directors have also indicated that there is no intention to re-test the performance conditions in the future.

as at 30 June 2009, 9,923,912 (2008: 2,910,520) performance rights and 10,464,491 (2008: 4,246,500) options had been issued to participants under the plan. the number of issued rights and options are net of adjustments due to forfeiture of rights and options as a result of termination of employment. no performance rights or options vested during the year to 30 June 2009 (2008: nil).

superseded plans

two previous lti plans were closed for new grants with the introduction of the current plan in 2007. trading windows and hedging rules apply to securities under these plans.

— employee incentive scheme

until 2006, Mirvac’s long-term variable remuneration for employees was its employee incentive scheme (“eis”). the eis, which was open to all permanent employees, was designed to widely share the benefits of the group’s performance through the provision of loans to purchase Mirvac stapled securities. allocations were made annually, were unrestricted and fully vested on allotment. the loans were repayable via distributions received on the securities or upon their sale. loans were provided on a recourse basis to executive Directors but were provided on a non-recourse basis to other participants in the scheme. if the loan value is greater than the value of securities, the remaining balance is written off and the securities are forfeited.

the eis scheme was closed to new participants in 2006 as it was no longer considered to be consistent with market practice but existing arrangements remain in place until all current loans are repaid.

— lti plan

a revised lti plan was introduced in 2006 and approved by securityholders at the group’s 2006 annual general Meeting/general Meeting. participation in the plan was open to the Managing Director, executive Directors, other executives and eligible employees. under this plan, participants were offered a loan, calculated as a percentage of a participant’s pay component, which was applied to fund the acquisition of Mirvac’s stapled securities at market value.

the term of the loan is eight years. any loan balance outstanding at the end of the eighth year must be repaid at that time. the loan is reduced annually by applying the after-tax amounts of any distributions paid by Mirvac to the outstanding principal. the loans are interest free and non-recourse over their term.

two performance conditions must be met before the securities acquired under the plan vest in full with the participant: relative tsr and absolute eps growth.

the satisfaction of each condition is given an equal weighting in terms of the total number of securities that may vest (i.e. 50 per cent of the total securities held by a participant is subject to each performance condition).

tsr performance condition

an entitlement to vesting of the securities will only occur if Mirvac’s tsr ranking is at or above the 50th percentile of the comparator group (being the entities that comprise the asX/s&p 200 property trust accumulation index) over a three year period as detailed in the vesting schedule below:

performance level	relative tsr (percentile)	% of securities subject to this criterion to vest
< threshold	< 50th	nil
threshold	50th	50
threshold — stretch	50th to 75th	pro-rata between 50 and 100
stretch	75th and above	100

eps performance condition

an entitlement to vesting under this condition will only occur when Mirvac’s eps growth reaches 4 per cent compound over a three year period, detailed in the table below:

performance level	absolute epsgrowth (compound) % of securities subject to this criterion to vest	absolute epsgrowth (compound) % of securities subject to this criterion to vest
< threshold	< 4%	nil
threshold	4%	50
threshold — stretch	4% to 9%	pro-rata between 50 and 100
stretch	9% and above	100

16 MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

on vesting 53.5 per cent of the original loan to fund the purchase of the vested securities will be waived. the remaining balance of the loan would continue to be reduced by after tax distributions until either the loan has been fully repaid or the eight year term expires, which ever occurs first.

if securities do not vest at the end of the three year period, they will be sold with the net proceeds payable to Mirvac. participants in such circumstances would retain a sufficient portion of the sale proceeds to cover any tax liability arising from the sale of the securities.

if a participant terminates their employment after securities have vested, any outstanding loans will have to be repaid in full immediately or the underlying securities will be forfeited. any unvested securities must be sold with the proceeds payable to the group.

other than the securities that vested for a qualifying reason, no other securities issued under this plan vested during the year to 30 June 2009.

the eis scheme and its replacement the lti plan introduced in 2006 are both closed to new participants and will remain in “run-off” mode until all loans made under each arrangement are extinguished. as at 30 June 2009, 2,817,308 (2008: 3,064,527) securities remain on issue under the 2006 plan.

iv) Retention programs

special retention programs have been used in the past on a case-by-case basis as determined necessary by the Board human resources Committee, including selected KMp and other senior executives in the current financial year. these programs have taken the form of personal secured property loans or special equity grants of performance rights. the loans are interest-free and include provision for some or all of debt to be waived, typically based on service. special equity grants were based on service alone, or included specific performance hurdles relevant to the individual’s role.

when awarded, the annual retention value to the individual is offset against the value of the individual’s lti grant in each year until the retention program is complete, such that the individual’s annual total maximum remuneration each year does not change. as such, any retention grant replaces a portion of the lti award, consistent with participants having already been identified as crucial to long-term securityholder value.

c) Non‑executive directors’ remuneration

Mirvac limited’s Constitution provides that non-executive Directors are entitled to such remuneration as they determine, but that the total amount provided to all Directors (excluding the Managing Director and any executive Directors) for their services as Directors must not exceed in the aggregate in any financial year the sum from time to time determined by securityholders in a general meeting. at the 2008 annual general Meeting/general Meeting, securityholders approved an increase in this aggregate amount from $1,200,000 to $1,450,000 per annum.

Mirvac’s non-executive Directors currently receive a base fee, plus fees for serving on the audit, risk and Compliance, and human resources Committees. the Chairs of each of these Committees receive an additional amount in recognition of the greater responsibility these positions demand.

however with effect from 1 July 2008 non-executive Directors were permitted to sacrifice some or all of their fees, on a monthly basis, to acquire Mirvac securities on market on a set trading day each month.

Mr turner also received a fee for serving on the Board of the responsible entity for a number of registered trusts and schemes operated by Mirvac’s investment Management Division. this fee is paid by a subsidiary entity within the group.

Members of the audit, risk and Compliance Committee (“arCC”) each receive an additional fee of $15,000 per annum for also acting as the arCC for responsible entities of a number of registered trusts and schemes operated by the investment Management Division. these additional fees are paid by subsidiary entities within the group.

non-executive Directors have not received any fees in addition to those described above in respect of any other duties performed or services provided within the scope of the ordinary duties of a Director, do not receive bonuses or any other incentive payments or retirement benefits and are not eligible to participate in any of the executive or employee security acquisition plans established by the group. however non-executive Directors are reimbursed for expenses properly incurred in performing their duties as a Director of Mirvac.

During financial year 2009, several employees were invited to participate in an interest-free loan program which has since been closed to further entry, consistent with Mirvac’s intention to eliminate the use of loan plans as part of employee reward. the amounts of the loans range from $500,000 to $2,000,000 and must be secured against property. the loan was granted on a full recourse basis. a progressively increasing forgiveness schedule allows for no more than 50 per cent of the total loan balance to be forgiven after five years of continued service. participants have 12 months from the end of the fifth year to repay the balance due and interest is payable during this time.

d) Relationship between remuneration policy and Mirvac performance

the global financial crisis continues to impact Mirvac, industry peers and the broader australian economy. a challenging business environment, coupled with the stress of the reduction in available debt, has lead to lower profits and distributions to securityholders. recognising the reality of this difficult operating environment, it has been agreed with the Board to suspend fixed pay increases and bonus awards for the current remuneration cycle. this understanding applies to all salaried staff, including the senior executive team. there will only be very limited circumstances where a pay adjustment may be made to reflect a significant role change. the lti plans are tied directly to objective hurdles and will only vest when those performance criteria are met or exceeded. a summary of vesting under Mirvac’s performance-hurdled equity grants is shown in the table:

					Value 1 of vested
		performance		Per cent vested at	securities at
grant		hurdle	test date	30 June 2009	30 June 2009
Fy2007	lti2	tsr & eps	30 June 2009	37%	($1,159,630) 3
Fy2008	ltp	tsr & eps	30 June 2010	0%	$0
Fy2009	ltp	tsr	30 June 2011	0%	$0

1) value is the number of securities in the scheme multiplied by the unit price at 30 June, net of loans outstanding.

2) negative amount reflects associated loan being greater than the underlying value of vested securities.

3) include all participants of the scheme.

the table below provides summary information regarding the group’s earnings and securityholder’s wealth for the five years to June 2009:

statutoryeps — basic(cents)	(65.2)	14.9	58.7	52.2	32.1

there have been no returns of capital to securityholders in the last five years.

e) other equity schemes in Mirvac

Mirvac has in operation a general employee exemption plan whereby offers are made to eligible australian based employees (but not to non-executive Directors) to acquire Mirvac stapled securities to a value of $1,000 per annum tax free. securities acquired under this plan must be held for a minimum of three years (or earlier at cessation of employment with the group) during which time the securities are subject to a restriction on disposal but otherwise holders enjoy the same rights and benefits as other holders of Mirvac’s stapled securities. as at 30 June 2009, 1,614,783 stapled securities (2008: 664,588) have been issued to employees under this general employee exemption plan. no securities have subsequently been issued in the period from 30 June 2009 to the date of this report.

no other equity acquisition schemes are in operation in Mirvac as at 30 June 2009.

non-audit services

Mirvac may decide to employ the auditor on assignments additional to their statutory audit duties where the auditor’s expertise and experience with the group are relevant (non-audit services).

Details of the amounts paid or payable to the auditor (pricewaterhouseCoopers) for audit and non-audit services provided during the year are set out in note 37 to the financial statements.

the Board of Directors has considered the position and, in accordance with the advice received from the arCC is satisfied that the provision of non-audit services is compatible with the general standard of independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations act 2001. the Directors are satisfied that the provision of non-audit services by the auditor, as set out below, did not compromise the auditor independence requirements of the Corporations act 2001 for the following reasons:

all non-audit services have been reviewed by the arCC to ensure they do not impact the impartiality and objectivity of the auditor; and
none of the services undermine the general principles relating to auditor independence as set out in apes110: Code of ethics for professional accountants, including reviewing or auditing the auditor’s own work, acting in a management or a decision-making capacity for the company, acting as advocate for the company or jointly sharing economic risk and rewards.

insurance of officers

During the financial year, Mirvac paid a premium for an insurance policy insuring any past, present, or future Director, secretary, executive officer or employee of the group against certain liabilities. in accordance with commercial practice, the insurance policy prohibits disclosure of the nature of the liabilities insured against and the amount of the premium.

auditor’s independence Declaration

a copy of the auditor’s independence Declaration required under section 307C of the Corporations act 2001 is set out on page 25.

rounding of amounts

Mirvac limited is of the kind referred to in Class order 98/0100 issued by the australian securities and investments Commission, relating to the “rounding off” of amounts in the financial report. amounts in the financial report have been rounded off to the nearest thousand dollars in accordance with that Class order.

corporate governance statement

GoVeRNANCe wIthIN MIRVAC

Mirvac has implemented various systems and processes to ensure that the interests of securityholders and other stakeholders in Mirvac are protected at all times.

the Board is responsible for ensuring that Mirvac is properly managed and is committed to maintaining the highest standards of corporate governance and fostering a culture that values ethical behaviour, integrity and respect to protect those stakeholders’ interests.

this statement sets out the key corporate governance principles adopted by Directors in governing the group and reflects the corporate governance policies and practices in place as at 30 June 2009 and throughout the year ending on that date.

Mirvac predominately operates in australia and its stapled securities are listed on the asX.

the asX listing rules require all listed entities to report on the extent to which their corporate governance practices follow the principles and recommendations contained in the asX Corporate governance Council’s publication “Corporate governance principles and recommendations” (“recommendations”) which was issued in 2007.

as detailed in this statement, Mirvac considers its practices do comply with the recommendations in all aspects unless disclosed otherwise.

Copies of Mirvac’s corporate governance policies and practices are posted to its website as required by the recommendations (www.mirvac.com), and may be found under the Corporate governance sub-heading within the “about Mirvac” section on the homepage.

2. BoARd oF dIReCtoRs

2.1 Board role and responsibilities

the primary objective of the Mirvac Board is to build long-term securityholder value with due regard to other stakeholder interests.

the Board has formalised its roles and responsibilities into a Board Charter which also clarifies the roles and responsibilities that are delegated to management.

the Managing Director manages the group in accordance with the strategy, plans and delegations approved by the Board.

the Board monitors the decisions and actions of the Managing Director and the performance of the group to gain assurance that progress is being made towards attainment of the approved strategies and plans. the Board also monitors the performance of the group through its Committees.

the Managing Director provides open and detailed reports on the group’s performance and related matters to each Board meeting. the Chief Financial officer and group treasurer provide comprehensive reports on Mirvac’s financial performance and other relevant matters such as debt position and status of financing facilities.

a copy of the Board Charter is available on Mirvac’s website.

Recommendations 1.1 and 1.3

2.2 Board size and composition

the Board determines its size and composition subject to the limits imposed by Mirvac’s Constitutions, which provide that there be a minimum of three and a maximum of ten Directors.

the Board is to comprise a majority of independent non-executive Directors with an appropriate range of skills, experience and expertise to deal with current and emerging issues of the business. Mirvac’s Board currently comprises five independent non-executive Directors, one dependent non-executive Director and one executive Director being the Managing Director. Details of the Directors in office as at the date of this report, including their qualifications, experience, date of appointment and their status as independent or dependent non-executive or executive are set out on pages 10 to 11 of the Directors’ report.

the Board considers that its Directors collectively bring the range of skills, knowledge and experience necessary to direct the group.

Recommendations 2.1 and 2.6

in summary, the Board’s accountabilities and responsibilities cover the following areas:

— strategy and planning;

personnel;
remuneration;
capital management and financial reporting;
performance monitoring;
risk management; and
audit and compliance.

responsibility for the day to day management and administration of Mirvac is delegated by the Board to the Managing Director, assisted by the executive Committee.

26 MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

2.3 Role of the Chairman

the Chairman of the Board is appointed by the Directors and, as specified in the Board Charter, must be an independent, non-executive Director who at the same time is not the Chief executive of the group.

the Chairman, Mr MacKenzie, is an independent non-executive Director who is also Chairman of the Board’s nomination Committee and a member of its human resources Committee.

the Chairman’s specific role is detailed in the Board Charter. in general the Chairman leads the Board and ensures that its principles and processes are maintained including the timely provision of accurate and clear information to Directors. the Chairman also encourages debate and active engagement in the Boardroom and in conjunction with the Managing Director and group Company secretary sets agendas for Board meetings that focus on strategy and performance. the Chairman is also responsible for facilitating the relationship between the Board and the Managing Director and other executives in particular.

Recommendations 2.2 and 2.3

2.4 Independence of directors

the Board considers that an appropriate balance between independent non-executive, and executive, Directors is necessary to appropriately govern Mirvac effectively and to promote securityholder interests. it is committed to ensuring a majority of the Board is independent at all times.

the Board has developed a policy, contained in the Board Charter, to determine the independence of its Directors. this determination is conducted annually or at any other time where the circumstances of a Director change such as to warrant reconsideration.

independent Directors must be independent of management and any business or other relationship that could materially interfere with the exercise of their unfettered and independent judgment as Directors of the group.

2.5 Conflicts of interest

the Board has approved guidelines for Board members dealing with conflicts of interests with their duties as Directors of Mirvac as detailed in the Board Charter.

a Director with an actual or potential conflict of interest in relation to a matter before the Board does not receive any papers prepared in relation to that matter and, when the matter comes before the Board for discussion, is not present for the discussion and takes no part in the decision making process.

Minutes recording the matter in which a Director is considered to have a conflict of interest are not provided to that Director. however, the Chairman would normally advise the conflicted Director of the broad nature of the matter for discussion and the progress of the matter through the Board process.

Mirvac’s Code of Conduct also sets down guidelines for dealing with conflicts of interest that may arise particularly for executives and other employees.

2.6 Meetings of the Board

the Board is scheduled to meet monthly each year, and at any other time to deal with specific matters between the scheduled meetings. as part of that meeting schedule Directors, with Mirvac’s executives and other key managers, hold a strategy session prior to the end of Mirvac’s financial year to determine strategic direction and related issues for the ensuing year.

papers are circulated well in advance of meetings in either electronic or paper form to assist in the decision making process. Board meetings are also scheduled away from head office at the group’s state and regional offices to provide Directors with the opportunity to view the businesses that comprise Mirvac and to meet employees from those businesses.

Details of the number of Board and Committee meetings held during the year together with the number of meetings attended by each Director are set out on page 11 of the Directors’ report.

it is Mirvac’s view and that of its Board, that five of its non-executive Directors are independent. Mr Fini was appointed a non-executive Director with effect from 1 January 2009. prior to that appointment he was an executive Director of the group. the guideline published in the recommendations concerning relationships affecting independence status indicates that a Director that has previously been employed in an executive capacity should not be considered independent until a period of three years from ceasing that employment has elapsed. Mirvac accepts this guideline in relation to Mr Fini’s position. however it is Mirvac’s view that each of its Directors has exercised judgment and discharged his or her responsibilities in an unrestricted and independent manner throughout the year. no other non-executive Director has a relationship that may affect his or her independent status and each continues to satisfy the specific materiality tests set down by the Board Charter.

Recommendations 2.1 and 2.6

MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

corporate governance statement

2.7 Review of Board and executive performance

a) Board

the performance of the Board is conducted annually by the Chairman supported by the group Company secretary. the appraisal is conducted initially by way of questionnaires completed by each Director individually which effectively review:

the performance of the Board and each of its Committees against the requirements of their respective charters;
the individual performance of the Chairman and each Director; and
the processes and procedures of the Board to identify areas for improvement.

the completed questionnaires are used as the basis of interviews conducted by the Chairman with Directors.

the appraisal process conducted during the year ended 30 June 2009 indicated that no major issues or concerns were identified that required further attention. the primary focus of the Board over the next 12 months will be to continue to implement strategies focusing on Mirvac’s core businesses and competencies and to monitor executive performance to deliver securityholder value over the longer term in the face of a challenging operating environment.

the human resources Committee reviews and makes recommendations to the Board on the criteria for, and the evaluation of, the performance of the Managing Director. the Managing Director evaluates the performance of the executive Directors.

b) Key executives

evaluation of key executives’ performance is conducted annually by the Managing Director. this evaluation includes assessment of the respective executive’s performance against business and personal objectives agreed at the beginning of the year. a copy of this evaluation is also reviewed by the human resources Committee.

the Managing Director also monitors executive performance throughout the year through regular meetings where progress towards achieving the set objectives is assessed and discussed.

Recommendations 1.2, 1.3, 2.5 and 2.6

2.8 Nomination and appointment of new directors

Mirvac’s Board nomination Committee is responsible for identification and recommendation of candidates to the Board.

external consultants may be retained to assist the Committee to ensure a wide selection of potential Directors is assessed.

all new Directors are required to sign and return a letter of appointment which sets out the key terms and conditions of their appointment, including duties, rights and responsibilities, the time commitment envisaged and the group’s expectations of its Directors.

Directors, other than the Managing Director, appointed during a year only hold office until the next annual general/general Meetings following their appointment, where upon they must retire and seek election by securityholders. Mirvac provides securityholders with relevant information on the candidates for election in such instances.

Recommendations 2.4 and 2.6

2.9 Retirement and re‑election of directors

Mirvac’s Constitutions provide that one-third of Directors must retire each year and seek re-election by securityholders at the annual general/general Meetings. this ensures that the maximum time that each Director can serve in any single appointment is three years.

the Chairman will evaluate the contribution of retiring Directors prior to the Board endorsing their standing for re-election. at this time, Mirvac has not imposed any maximum on the number of terms that a non-executive Director may serve. the Managing Director is not included in the number of Directors that must retire each year.

Recommendation 2.6

2.10 Access to independent information and advice

as detailed in the Board Charter, the Board and its Committees may seek advice from independent experts whenever it is considered appropriate. individual Directors, with the consent of the Chairman, may seek independent professional advice on any matter connected to their responsibilities as a Director of the group, at the group’s expense. no Director availed him or herself of this right during the year.

4. exteRNAL AUdItoR ReLAtIoNshIP

Mirvac’s arCC in accordance with its Charter, is responsible for overseeing the relationship with the group’s external auditor, pricewaterhouseCoopers, including the terms of engagement of the external auditor and the scope of the external audit program each year. the arCC is also responsible for monitoring and evaluating the performance, and independence, of the external auditor.

4.1 Approach to auditor independence

the Board has adopted a policy and practice protocol for auditor independence which forms part of the arCC’s Charter published on Mirvac’s website.

that policy and practice protocol endorses the fundamental principles of auditor independence that, in order to be eligible to undertake any non-audit related services, the external auditor must not, as a result of that assignment:

create a mutual or conflicting interest with that of Mirvac;
audit their own work;
act in a management capacity or as an employee; or
act as an advocate for Mirvac.

the policy also details the services that the external auditor will be prohibited from performing.

4.2 Certification of independence

pricewaterhouseCoopers has provided the arCC with a half-yearly and annual certification of its continued independence, in accordance with the requirements of the Corporations act, and in particular confirmed that it did not carry out any services or assignments during the year ended 30 June 2009 that were not compatible with auditor independence.

30 MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

4.3 other monitoring of independence

in addition to the audit partner rotation and appointment requirements set out in the policy and in the Corporations act, the arCC also reviews and approves, or declines, as considered appropriate before the engagement commences, any individual engagement for non-audit services involving fees exceeding $100,000. Below this amount, approval, or otherwise as considered appropriate, is delegated to the Chief Financial officer.

no work will be awarded to the external auditor if the arCC (or the Chief Financial officer as applicable) believes such work would give rise to a “self review threat” (as defined in apes110: Code of ethics for professional accountants) or would create a conflict, or perceived conflict, of interest for the external auditor or any member of the audit team, or would otherwise compromise the auditor’s independence requirements under the Corporations act.

4.4 Attendance at the Annual General Meeting/ General Meeting

a partner of Mirvac’s external auditor, pricewaterhouseCoopers, attends all annual general/ general Meetings of the group and is available to answer questions from securityholders on the conduct of the audit of the group. securityholders are also provided with a reasonable opportunity to ask questions of the auditor at the Meetings.

the external auditor is also allowed a reasonable opportunity to answer written questions submitted by securityholders to the meetings.

no questions were directed to the auditors in regard to the conduct of the audit of Mirvac’s 2008 Financial report and no questions were directed to the auditors at Mirvac’s 2008 meetings.

Recommendation 6.2

5. ReCoGNIse ANd MANAGe RIsK

5.1 Approach to risk management

Mirvac’s activities span real estate investment, development and hotels and investment management.

these activities involve risks of varying types and to varying extents. risk can relate to both threats to existing activities as well as a failure to take advantage of opportunities that may arise.

Mirvac’s objective is to ensure those risks are identified and, where practical and economically viable, measures implemented to mitigate or otherwise manage the impact those risks may have on the group’s activities.

in recognition that risk management is a key element of an organisation’s effective corporate governance processes, Mirvac’s Board of Directors has adopted a risk Management policy statement and associated procedures for identifying, assessing and managing Mirvac’s strategic, operational, financial and reputational risks.

this policy forms a key component of the overall control environment and is reviewed annually to ensure it reflects the current internal and external context of the group, the markets in which it operates and to ensure it reflects changes to the group’s approach to risk management that may have occurred during the review period.

the objectives of the policy are to:

provide a systematic approach to risk management aligned to the group’s strategic objectives;
define the mechanisms by which the group determines its risk appetite and considers and manages risks; and
articulate the roles and accountabilities for the management, oversight and governance of risk.

the approach defined within this policy is consistent with the australian and new Zealand standard on risk management: as/nZs 4360:2004.

the policy applies to all legal entities within Mirvac to enable an enterprise wide approach to managing risk to be applied.

supporting this policy is a “risk Management roadmap and Framework” which has been prepared to guide the various business units in addressing their particular risk exposures through a structured implementation of risk management processes. although structured, the Framework maintains a sufficient degree of flexibility to allow the respective business units to adopt appropriate strategies to address their risk exposures.

the Mirvac Board determines the overall risk appetite for the group and has approved the strategies, policies and practices to ensure that risks are identified and managed within the context of this risk appetite.

the application of the group’s policies and procedures to manage risk is ultimately the responsibility of the Board, which has in turn delegated specific authority to the group’s arCC (as more fully detailed in the arCC’s Charter).

the arCC advises the Board on risk management and is responsible for reviewing policies for approval by the Board and for reviewing the effectiveness of the group’s approach to risk management. risk management is a standing agenda item for all arCC meetings.

MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

corporate governance statement

the Board has charged management with the responsibility for managing risk within the group and the implementation of mitigation measures, under the direction of the Managing Director supported by the executive Committee.

a group risk management department has been established to facilitate the process by providing a centralised role in advising the various business units on executing risk management and mitigation strategies, as well as consolidating risk reporting to the executive Committee, the arCC and ultimately the Board.

internal audit’s role is to assess risks and controls, enhance processes and to monitor controls to provide assurance to the arCC and the Board that the material risks and compliance obligations are being effectively managed.

the head of internal audit has unfettered access to the arCC and its Chairman at all times.

Mirvac’s approach to risk management is to establish an effective control environment to manage “material risks” to its business. a material risk is defined as the probability that an action, inaction or natural event may hinder or prevent the achievement of key business objectives.

the group’s risk management and internal control systems are designed to provide reasonable assurance that:

risk exposures are identified and adequately monitored and managed through appropriate risk mitigation measures;
financial, management and operational information is accurate, relevant, timely and reliable; and
there is compliance with the spirit of, as well as the letter of, policies, standards, procedures and applicable laws, regulations and licences.

the Managing Director supported by the executive Committee is responsible for implementing and maintaining effective risk management and internal control systems for the operational risks that arise from the group’s activities.

to ensure consistent and effective practices are employed each business unit has established a risk management group and developed risk registers detailing the key risks facing the particular business unit. these registers also detail the controls implemented to manage or mitigate the identified risks, as well as the persons responsible for implementing the controls and managing the risks.

these registers are reviewed and updated regularly, or as changing circumstances dictate initially by the respective business unit, and reviewed by internal audit, prior to submission to the executive Committee.

to address a specific operational risk, the Board established the hse Committee to oversee and report to the Board on the group’s management of its hse performance, risks and legal obligations.

the Board has also approved principles and policies to manage the financial risks arising from the group’s operations, including its financing and treasury management activities.

the arCC reviews and reports to the Board in relation to the integrity of the group’s financial reporting, internal control structure, risk management systems as well as the internal and external audit functions.

executive assurance is provided to the Board and the arCC as to the effectiveness of the group’s risk management and internal control systems in relation to financial reporting risks as detailed in the next section. Management also reports to the arCC to enable it to access the effectiveness of the management of material business risks.

the arCC also oversees, and reports to various Boards within the group on the specific risks and compliance requirements arising from the activities of the group’s aFs licensed entities and respective Managed investment schemes. the arCC is assisted in this process by a Compliance Committee, comprising four independent members, that reviews the compliance performance of these licensed entities and their various schemes and funds on a quarterly basis.

as noted previously, Mirvac’s risk Management policy, Framework and underlying strategies are reviewed annually by the arCC and the Board to ensure continued application and relevance to the group’s activities and exposures. the group risk department co-ordinates this review process.

Mirvac’s approach to risk management and internal compliance and control is posted to Mirvac’s website under the Corporate governance sub-heading within the “about Mirvac” section on the homepage.

Recommendations 7.1, 7.2, 7.3 and 7.4

5.2 executive assurance

the Managing Director and Chief Financial officer have provided the following assurance to the Mirvac Board in connection with the group’s full year financial statements and reports, namely that in their opinion, to the best of their knowledge and belief:

a) the financial records of Mirvac for the year ended 30 June 2009 have been properly maintained in accordance with section 286 of the Corporations act 2001;
b) the financial statements of Mirvac and the notes to those statements for the year ended 30 June 2009 comply with the relevant accounting standards;
c) the group’s financial statements, and the notes to those statements, for the year ended 30 June 2009 give a true and fair view of the financial position, operational results and the performance of Mirvac;
d) the statements referred to in paragraphs a) to c) above are founded on a system of risk management and internal compliance and control which implements the policies adopted by the Mirvac Board; and
e) Mirvac’s risk management and internal compliance and control system is operating effectively in all material respects in relation to financial reporting risks.

the effective control environment established by the Mirvac Board supports this assurance provided by the Managing Director and Chief Financial officer.

however, it should be noted that associates and joint ventures, which are not controlled by Mirvac, are not covered for the purposes of this assurance or declaration given under section 295a of the Corporations act 2001.

Further, these declarations provide a reasonable but not absolute level of assurance about risk management, internal compliance and control systems, and do not imply a guarantee against adverse events or more volatile conditions and outcomes in the future.

7.1 Approach to corporate conduct

integrity is one of Mirvac’s core values. in the group’s 37 year history, it has built a reputation for integrity and in dealing fairly, honestly and transparently with all stakeholders.

Mirvac has adopted a Code of Conduct which espouses its core values and reflects the recommendations in terms of the matters addressed. each member of the executive Committee certifies to the arCC their adherence to the requirements of the Code on a quarterly basis.

the Code of Conduct applies to Mirvac’s Board of Directors, executives and all other employees. a copy of the Code has been made available to all and is posted on the group’s intranet and is available under the Corporate governance sub-heading within the “about Mirvac” section of Mirvac’s website.

Recommendations 3.1 and 3.3

7.2 Compliance with the Code of Conduct

to fulfil Mirvac’s commitment to its core values and the requirements of the Code of Conduct, the group needs to be able to ensure that:

violations of the Code and these values are detected and reported; and
appropriate action is taken in response to any violations.

accordingly Mirvac encourages its non-executive Directors, executives and other employees to report promptly in good faith any serious violations or suspected serious violations of the law or its Code of Conduct. to facilitate this, and in addition to the quarterly sign-off referred to earlier, the group has established its “open line” program to allow staff to report in good faith suspected fraud, theft, criminal activity or any other conduct which may cause loss or be detrimental to Mirvac’s reputation. the open line program sets out the measures to be taken and the protection to be provided in instances where violations or other suspected matters are reported.

Further, part 9.4aaa of the Corporations act also provides protection to “whistleblowers” in certain specified circumstances.

7.3 Political and charitable donations

Mirvac supports the democratic process within australia and does make modest donations to australia’s major political parties to facilitate attendance at conferences and meetings where the group is able to provide its views on policies and matters that may impact its operations. Mirvac’s Code of Conduct stipulates that donations can only be made on the approval of the Managing Director.

During the year ended 30 June 2009, Mirvac donated $18,264 to state based political parties in new south wales, Queensland and western australia.

the recently established Mirvac Foundation is the focus of Mirvac’s charitable support on both a national and state basis. the Foundation is currently supporting financially in each state, charities that care for the homeless. Mirvac staff also donate financially to the Foundation and donate their time to support these charities’ activities. in addition to making a direct financial contribution to the Foundation, Mirvac matches the financial contributions of staff to the Foundation, makes staff available to provide development and construction advice as well as providing materials and personnel to assist in building programs. staff are also permitted time off with full pay to support the charities in other areas of their respective operations, where this is feasible.

7.4 security trading Policy

Mirvac has implemented a security trading policy that covers dealings in securities by Directors, executives and other designated employees as well as their respective associates. these designated persons may only deal in Mirvac securities, or in securities of other public, listed entities that are related to Mirvac, in certain periods as identified in the policy. not withstanding this, no Director, executive or other employee may deal whenever they are in possession of price sensitive information. any securities dealing in the group by Directors is notified to the asX within five business days of the dealing. Mirvac does not stipulate any minimum security holding requirements by its Directors.

in particular the policy also prohibits executives and other employees hedging options they may hold over Mirvac securities.

Mirvac’s security trading policy is available under the Corporate governance sub-heading within the “about Mirvac” section of Mirvac’s website.

7.5 Market disclosure Policy and practice

Mirvac is committed to:

effectively communicating with its securityholders and facilitating an efficient and informed market in its securities by keeping the market appraised through announcements to the asX, of all material information; and
compliance with the requirements of the Corporations act, asX listing rules and the asX Corporate governance principles and recommendations.

the group’s Continuous Disclosure policy is designed to support its commitment to a fully informed market in its securities by ensuring that announcements are:

made to the asX in a timely manner, are factual and do not omit material information; and
expressed in a clear and objective manner that allows investors to assess the impact of the information when making investment decisions.

supporting the Continuous Disclosure policy is its Communications policy which governs Mirvac’s policy in relation to interactions with external individuals, investors, analysts and other market participants.

the group Company secretary is responsible for the group’s compliance with its continuous disclosure obligations and for overseeing and coordinating disclosures to the asX and other interested parties.

all disclosures are posted to Mirvac’s website. also posted to its website are annual and half-year reports, profit releases, market briefings, notices of meetings and its regularly updated property compendium. web-casting and teleconferencing facilities are provided for market briefings to encourage participation from all stakeholders, regardless of location.

Mirvac has also rotated the location of its annual general Meeting/general Meeting over the past two years, after many years in sydney, to allow securityholders in other states where there is a significant representation to participate in person. the 2009 Meetings will be held in sydney.

the Continuous Disclosure and Communications policies are posted to Mirvac’s website under the Corporate governance sub-heading within the “about Mirvac” section on the homepage.

notes to the financial statements

Note 1. sUMMARy oF sIGNIFICANt ACCoUNtING PoLICIes

the Financial statements of Mirvac consist of the Consolidated Financial statements of Mirvac limited and its controlled entities including the Mirvac property trust and its controlled entities. these Financial statements include the separate Financial statements of Mirvac limited as an individual entity.

Mirvac — stapled securities

a Mirvac group stapled security comprises one Mirvac limited share “stapled” to one Mirvac property trust unit to create a single listed entity traded on the asX. the stapled securities cannot be traded or dealt with separately.

with the establishment of the group and its common investors, Mirvac limited and Mirvac Funds limited (as responsible entity for Mirvac property trust) have common Directors and common business objectives, and operates as Mirvac group with two core businesses:

real estate investment management; and — real estate development.

the entities forming the stapled group entered into a Deed of Cooperation which provided that the members consider the interests of Mirvac as a whole, when entering into any agreement or arrangement, or carrying out any act. this Deed of Cooperation means that members of the stapled group, where permitted by law, will carry out activities with other members on a cost recovery basis, thereby maintaining the best interests of Mirvac as a whole.

the two Mirvac entities comprising the stapled group, remain separate legal entities in accordance with the Corporations act 2001, and are each required to comply with the reporting and disclosure requirements of accounting standards and the Corporations act 2001. in accordance with urgent issues group interpretation 1013, “Consolidated Financial reports in relation to pre-Date-of-transition stapling arrangements”, Mirvac limited has been deemed the parent entity of Mirvac property trust.

the stapled security structure will cease to operate on the first to occur of:

any of Mirvac limited or Mirvac property trust resolving by special resolution in general meeting and in accordance with its constitution to terminate the stapling provisions; or
the commencement of the winding up of Mirvac limited or Mirvac property trust.

the asX reserves the right (but without limiting its absolute discretion) to remove one or more entities with stapled securities from the official list if any of their securities cease to be ‘stapled’ together, or any equity securities of the same class are issued by one entity which are not stapled to equivalent securities in the other entity or entities.

Basis of preparation of financial report

this general purpose financial report has been prepared in accordance with australian equivalents to international Financial reporting standards (“aiFrs”), other authoritative pronouncements of the australian accounting standards Board, urgent issues group interpretations and the Corporations act 2001.

Compliance with International Financial

Reporting standards (“IFRs”)

australian accounting standards include aiFrs. Compliance with aiFrs ensures that the consolidated financial statements of the group comply with iFrs. the parent entity’s Financial statements also comply with iFrs.

historical cost convention

these Financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of available-for-sale financial assets, financial assets and liabilities (including derivative instruments) at fair value through profit or loss, certain classes of property, plant and equipment and investment property.

Critical accounting estimates

the preparation of Financial statements in conformity with aiFrs requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. it also requires management to exercise its judgement in the process of applying Mirvac’s accounting policies. the areas involving a higher degree of judgement or complexity, or areas where assumptions and estimates are significant to the Financial statements are disclosed in note 2.

Principles of consolidation

i) subsidiaries

the Consolidated Financial statements incorporate the assets and liabilities of all subsidiaries of Mirvac as at 30 June 2009 and the results of all subsidiaries for the financial year then ended.

subsidiaries are all those entities (including special purpose entities) over which Mirvac has the power to govern the financial and operating policies, generally accompanying a shareholding of more than one-half of the voting rights. the existence and effect of potential voting rights that are currently exercisable or convertible are considered when assessing whether Mirvac controls another entity.

subsidiaries are fully consolidated from the date on which control is transferred to Mirvac. they are de-consolidated from the date that control ceases.

the purchase method of accounting is used to account for the acquisition of subsidiaries by Mirvac (refer to note 1: Business combinations).

the principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial report are set out below. these policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

notes to the financial statements

Note 1. sUMMARy oF sIGNIFICANt ACCoUNtING PoLICIes / CoNtINUed

intercompany transactions and balances between Mirvac entities are eliminated. accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the group.

(iii) Joint ventures

Jointly controlled assets

the proportionate interests in the assets, liabilities and expenses of a joint venture operation have been incorporated in the Financial statements under the appropriate headings.

Joint venture entities

Minority interests in the results and equity of subsidiaries are shown separately in the consolidated income statement and Balance sheet, respectively.

investments in subsidiaries are accounted for at cost in the individual statements of Mirvac limited (parent entity).

ii) Associates

associates are all entities over which Mirvac has significant influence but not control or joint control, generally accompanying a shareholding of between 20 per cent and 50 per cent of the voting rights. investments in associates are accounted for in the Consolidated Financial statements using the equity method of accounting, after initially being recognised at cost. investments in associates are accounted for in the parent entity Financial statements using the cost method. Mirvac’s investment in associates includes goodwill (net of any accumulated impairment loss) identified on acquisition.

Mirvac’s share of its associates’ post-acquisition profits or losses is recognised in the income statement, and its share of post-acquisition movements in reserves is recognised in reserves. the cumulative post-acquisition movements are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. Dividends receivable from associates reduce the carrying amount of the investments.

when Mirvac’s share of losses in an associate equals or exceeds its interest in the associate, including any other unsecured receivables, Mirvac does not recognise further losses, unless it has incurred obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.

unrealised gains on transactions between Mirvac and its associates are eliminated to the extent of Mirvac’s interest in the associates. unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. accounting policies of associates are changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by Mirvac.

investments in associates within certain asset classes, including infrastructure investments, have been measured at fair value. Changes in fair value are recognised as income or expenses in the income statement in the financial year in which the change occurred.

interests in joint ventures are accounted for in the Consolidated Financial statements using the equity method and are carried at cost by the parent entity. under the equity method, the share of the profits or losses of the entity are recognised in the income statement, and the share of movements in reserves is recognised in reserves in the Balance sheet.

profits or losses on transactions establishing the joint venture partnership and transactions with the joint venture are eliminated to the extent of Mirvac’s ownership interest until such time as they are realised by the joint venture partnership on consumption or sale, unless they relate to an unrealised loss that provides evidence of the impairment of an asset transferred.

segment reporting

a business segment is a group of assets and operations engaged in providing products or services that are subject to risks and returns that are different to those of other business segments. a geographical segment is engaged in providing products or services within a particular economic environment and is subject to risks and returns that are different from those of segments operating in other economic environments.

Foreign currency translation

i) Functional and presentation currency

items included in the financial statements of each of the Mirvac limited entities are measured using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the entity operates (“the functional currency”). the consolidated financial statements are presented in australian dollars, which is Mirvac limited’s functional and presentation currency.

ii) transactions and balances

Foreign currency transactions are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at year end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are recognised in the income statement, except when deferred in equity as qualifying cash flow hedges and qualifying net investment hedges.

translation differences on non monetary financial assets and liabilities are reported as part of the fair value gain or loss. translation differences on non monetary financial assets and liabilities such as equities held at fair value through profit or loss are recognised in profit or loss as part of the fair value gain or loss. translation differences on non monetary financial assets such as equities classified as available for sale financial assets are included in the fair value reserve in equity.

42 MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

Note 1. sUMMARy oF sIGNIFICANt ACCoUNtING PoLICIes / CoNtINUed

iii) Foreign controlled entities

the results and financial position of entities (none of which has the currency of a hyperinflationary economy) that have a functional currency different from the presentation currency are translated into the presentation currency as follows:

assets and liabilities for each Balance sheet presented are translated at the closing rate at the date of the Balance sheet;
income and expenses for each income statement are translated at average exchange rates (unless this is not a reasonable approximation of the cumulative effect of the rate prevailing on the transaction dates, in which case income and expenses are translated at the dates of the transactions); and
all resulting exchange differences are recognised as a separate component of equity.

exchange differences are recognised in the income statement in the period in which they arise except for:

exchange differences on transactions entered into in order to hedge certain foreign currency risks; and
exchange differences on monetary items which form part of the net investment in a foreign operation, which are recognised in the foreign currency translation reserve. when a foreign operation is sold or any borrowings forming part of the net investment are repaid, a proportionate share of such exchange differences are recognised in the income statement, as part of the gain or loss on sale where applicable.

Revenue recognition

revenue is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable. amounts disclosed as revenue are net of returns, trade allowances and duties and taxes paid. revenue is recognised for the major business activities as follows:

i) development projects and land sales

revenue for development projects and land sales is recognised when the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred.

ii) Construction contracts

revenue and expenses are recognised in accordance with the percentage of completion method unless the outcome of the contract cannot be reliably estimated. where it is probable that a loss will arise from a construction contract, the excess of total costs over revenue is recognised as an expense immediately.

when the outcome of a contract cannot be reliably estimated, contract costs are recognised as an expense as incurred, and where it is probable that the costs will be recovered, revenue is recognised to the extent of costs incurred.

iv) Rental income

rental revenue for operating leases is recognised on a straight line basis over the term of the lease, except when an alternative basis is more representative of the pattern of service rendered through the provision of the leased premises. lease incentives offered under operating leases are amortised on a straight-line basis and offset against rental income.

v) Recoverable outgoings

recovery of outgoings as specified in lease agreements is accrued on an estimated basis and adjusted when the actual amounts are invoiced to the respective tenants.

vi) Fees

revenues from the rendering of property funds management, property advisory and facilities management services are recognised upon the delivery of the service to the customers or where there is a signed unconditional contract for sale or purchase of assets.

vii) Interest

interest revenue is brought to account when earned, taking into account the effective yield on the financial asset.

Income tax

the income tax expense or revenue for the period is the tax payable on the current period’s taxable income based on the applicable income tax rate for each jurisdiction adjusted by changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the financial statements, and to unused tax losses.

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary differences at the tax rates expected to apply when the assets are recovered or liabilities are settled, based on those tax rates which are enacted or substantively enacted. the relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the deferred tax asset or liability. an exception is made for certain temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset or a liability. no deferred tax asset or liability is recognised in relation to these temporary differences if they arose in a transaction, other than a business combination, that at the time of the transaction did not affect either accounting profit or taxable profit or loss.

Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible temporary differences and unused tax losses only if it is probable that future taxable amounts will be available to utilise those temporary differences and losses.

Deferred tax liabilities and assets are not recognised for temporary differences between the carrying amount and tax bases of investments in controlled entities where the parent entity is able to control the timing of the reversal of the temporary differences and it is probable that the differences will not reverse in the foreseeable future.

iii) hotel revenue

revenue is recognised when goods and services have been provided to the customer.

MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

notes to the financial statements

Note 1. sUMMARy oF sIGNIFICANt ACCoUNtING PoLICIes / CoNtINUed

Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when there is a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and when the deferred tax balances relate to the same taxation authority. Current tax assets and tax liabilities are offset where the entity has a legally enforceable right to offset and intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Current and deferred tax balances attributable to amounts recognised directly in equity are also recognised directly in equity.

tax consolidation legislation

Mirvac limited and its wholly-owned australian controlled entities have implemented the tax consolidation legislation as of 1 July 2003.

the head entity, Mirvac limited, and the controlled entities in the tax consolidated group continue to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. these tax amounts are measured as if each entity in the tax consolidated group continues to be a stand alone taxpayer in its own right.

in addition to its own current and deferred tax amounts, Mirvac limited also recognises the current tax liabilities (or assets) and the deferred tax assets arising from unused tax losses and unused tax credits assumed from controlled entities in the tax consolidated group.

assets or liabilities arising under tax funding agreements within the tax consolidated group are recognised as amounts receivable from or payable to other entities in the group. Details about the tax funding agreement are disclosed in note 6(d).

any difference between the amounts assumed and amounts receivable or payable under the tax funding agreement are recognised as a contribution to (or distribution from) wholly owned tax consolidated entities.

under the current income tax legislation Mirvac property trust is not liable for income tax, provided its taxable income is fully distributed to unit holders each financial year.

Leases

leases of property, plant and equipment where Mirvac has substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are classified as finance leases. Finance leases are capitalised at the lease’s inception at the lower of the fair value of the leased property and the present value of the minimum lease payments. the corresponding rental obligations, net of finance charges, are included in other long-term payables. each lease payment is allocated between the liability and finance charges so as to achieve a constant rate on the finance balance outstanding. the interest element of the finance cost is charged to the income statement over the lease period so as to produce a constant periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability for each period. the property, plant and equipment acquired under finance leases are depreciated over the shorter of the asset’s useful life and the lease term.

leases in which a significant portion of the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. payments made under operating leases (net of any incentives received from the lessor) are charged to the income statement on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

Business combinations

the purchase method of accounting is used to account for all business combinations regardless of whether equity instruments or other assets are acquired. Cost is measured as the fair value of the assets given, securities issued or liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange plus costs directly attributable to the acquisition. where equity instruments are issued in an acquisition, the value of the instruments is their published market price as at the date of exchange unless, in rare circumstances, it can be demonstrated that the published price at the date of exchange is an unreliable indicator of fair value and that other evidence and valuation methods provide a more reliable measure of fair value. transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are recognised directly in equity.

identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date, irrespective of the extent of any minority interest. the excess of the cost of acquisition over the fair value of Mirvac’s share of the identifiable net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill (refer to note 1: intangible assets). if the cost of acquisition is less than the fair value of the net assets of the subsidiary acquired, the difference is recognised directly in the income statement, but only after a reassessment of the identification and measurement of the net assets acquired.

where settlement of any part of cash consideration is deferred, the amounts payable in the future are discounted to their present value as at the date of exchange. the discount rate used is the entity’s incremental borrowing rate, being the rate at which a similar borrowing could be obtained from an independent financier under comparable terms and conditions.

Impairment of assets

goodwill and intangibles that have an indefinite useful life are not subject to amortisation and are tested annually for impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired. other assets that are subject to amortisation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.

an impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount. the recoverable amount is the higher of an asset’s fair value less costs to sell and value in use. in assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using post-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of both the time value of money and the risk specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted. an impairment loss is recognised for the amount by which the asset’s (or cash-generating unit (“Cgu”)) carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount.

44 MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

Note 1. sUMMARy oF sIGNIFICANt ACCoUNtING PoLICIes / CoNtINUed

For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash flows which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (Cgu).

the lowest level at which Mirvac allocates and monitors goodwill is at the primary reporting segments level (note 3). within each reporting segment, there are a number of Cgu.

Cash and cash equivalents

For cash flow statement presentation purposes, cash and cash equivalents includes cash on hand, deposits held at call with financial institutions, other short term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities on the Balance sheet.

trade receivables

trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less provision for doubtful debts.

Collectability of trade receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. receivables which are known to be uncollectible are written off. a provision for doubtful debts is established when there is objective evidence that Mirvac will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of receivables. the amount of the provision is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, discounted at the effective interest rate. the amount of the provision is recognised in the income statement.

Mezzanine loans

Mezzanine loans are loans to unrelated parties for predominately real estate property development. these loans are secured by a second ranking mortgage, behind the senior lender. Mezzanine loans are recognised initially at fair value. Collectability of loans is reviewed on an ongoing basis and those which are considered uncollectible are written off through the income statement.

Inventories

inventories comprise development projects, construction contracts and hotel stock.

i) development projects

Development projects are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost includes the cost of acquisition, development, borrowing costs and all other costs directly related to specific projects, including an allocation of direct overhead expenses. upon completion of the contract of sale, borrowing costs, and other holding charges are expensed as incurred. profits on development projects are not brought to account until settlement of the contract of sale.

ii) Construction contracts

Construction work in progress is stated at the aggregate of contract costs incurred to date plus recognised profits less recognised losses and progress billings. if there are contracts where progress billings exceed the aggregate costs incurred plus profits less losses, the net amounts are presented under payables.

Contract costs include all costs directly related to specific contracts, and costs that are specifically chargeable to the customer under the terms of the contract.

the stage of completion is measured using the percentage of completion method unless the outcome of the contract cannot be reliably measured.

iii) hotel stock

hotel stock is stated at lower of cost and net realisable value.

Assets classified as held for sale

assets classified as held for sale are stated at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale transaction rather than through continuing use. investment properties classified as held for sale are carried at fair value. an impairment loss is recognised for any initial or subsequent write down of the asset to fair value less costs to sell. a gain is recognised for any subsequent increases in fair value less costs to sell of an asset, but not in excess of any cumulative impairment loss previously recognised. a gain or loss not previously recognised by the date of the sale of the asset classified as held for sale is recognised at the date of de-recognition.

non-current assets are not depreciated or amortised while they are classified as held for sale. interest and other expenses attributable to the liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale continue to be recognised. non-current assets classified as held for sale are presented separately from the other assets in the Balance sheet. the liabilities of a disposal group classified as held for sale are presented separately from other liabilities in the Balance sheet.

Investments and other financial assets

i) Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss

Financial assets classified as held for trading are included in the category “financial assets at fair value through profit or loss”. Financial assets are classified as held for trading if they are acquired for the purpose of selling in the near term. Derivatives are also categorised as held for trading unless they are designated as hedges.

ii) Loans and receivables

loans and receivables are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. they arise when Mirvac provides money, goods or services directly to a debtor with no intention of selling the receivable. they are included in current assets, except for those with maturities greater than 12 months after the Balance sheet date which are classified as non-current assets. loans and receivables are included in receivables in the Balance sheet.

MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

notes to the financial statements

Note 1. sUMMARy oF sIGNIFICANt ACCoUNtING PoLICIes / CoNtINUed

iii) held‑to‑maturity investments

held-to-maturity investments are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and fixed maturities that Mirvac’s management has the positive intention and ability to hold to maturity.

iv) Available‑for‑sale financial assets

available-for-sale financial assets, comprising principally marketable equity securities, are non-derivatives that are either designated in this category or not classified in any of the other categories. they are included in non-current assets unless management intends to dispose of the investment within 12 months of the Balance sheet date.

purchases and sales of investments are recognised on trade-date being the date on which Mirvac commits to purchase or sell the asset. investments are initially recognised at fair value plus transaction costs for all financial assets not carried at fair value through profit or loss. Financial assets are de-recognised when the rights to receive cash flows from the financial assets have expired or have been transferred and Mirvac has transferred substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership.

available-for-sale financial assets and financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are subsequently carried at fair value. loans and receivables and held-to-maturity investments are carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method. realised and unrealised gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value of the “financial assets at fair value through profit or loss” category are included in the income statement in the period in which they arise.

when securities classified as available-for-sale are sold or impaired, the accumulated fair value adjustments in equity are included in the income statement as gains and losses from investment securities.

the fair values of quoted investments are based on current bid prices. if the market for a financial asset is not active (and for unlisted securities), Mirvac establishes fair value by using valuation techniques. these include reference to the fair values of recent arm’s length transactions, involving the same instruments or other instruments that are substantially the same, discounted cash flow analysis and option pricing models refined to reflect the issuer’s specific circumstances.

Impairment of financial assets

Mirvac assesses at each balance date whether there is objective evidence that a financial asset or group of financial assets is impaired. in the case of equity securities classified as available for sale, a significant or prolonged decline in the fair value of a security below its cost is considered in determining whether the security is impaired. if any such evidence exists for available-for-sale financial assets, the cumulative loss (measured as the difference between the acquisition cost and the current fair value) less any impairment loss on that financial asset previously recognised in profit and loss is removed from equity and recognised in the income statement. impairment losses recognised in the income statement on equity instruments are not reversed through the income statement.

derivatives

Derivatives are initially recognised at fair value on the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently remeasured to their fair value at each reporting date. the method of recognising the resulting gain or loss depends on whether the derivative is designated as a hedging instrument, and if so, the nature of the item being hedged. Mirvac designates certain derivatives as either: (1) hedges of the fair value of recognised assets, liabilities or firm commitments (fair value hedge); or (2) hedges of highly probable forecast transactions (cash flow hedges).

Mirvac documents at the inception of the transaction the relationship between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. Mirvac also documents its assessment, both at hedge inception and on an ongoing basis, of whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions have been and will continue to be highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of hedged items.

i) Fair value hedge

Changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as fair value hedges are recorded in the income statement, together with any changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk.

ii) Cash flow hedge

the effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in equity in the hedging reserve. the gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement.

amounts accumulated in equity are recycled in the income statement in the periods when the hedged item will affect profit or loss (for instance when the forecast sale that is hedged takes place). however, when the forecast transaction that is hedged results in the recognition of a non-financial asset (for example, inventory) or a non-financial liability, the gains and losses previously deferred in equity are transferred from equity and included in the measurement of the initial cost or carrying amount of the asset or liability.

when a hedging instrument expires or is sold or terminated, or when a hedge no longer meets the criteria for hedge accounting, any cumulative gain or loss existing in equity at that time remains in equity and is recognised when the forecast transaction is ultimately recognised in the income statement. when a forecast transaction is no longer expected to occur, the cumulative gain or loss that was reported in equity is immediately transferred to the income statement.

iii) derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting

Certain derivative instruments do not qualify for hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of any derivative instrument that does not qualify for hedge accounting are recognised immediately in the income statement.

Fair value estimation

the fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement or for disclosure purposes.

the fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives, and trading and available-for-sale securities) is based on quoted market prices at the Balance sheet date. the quoted market price used for financial assets held by Mirvac is the current bid price; the appropriate quoted market price for financial liabilities is the current ask price.

the fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (for example, over-the-counter derivatives) is determined using valuation techniques. Mirvac uses a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at each balance date. Quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar instruments are used for long-term debt instruments held. other techniques, such as estimated discounted cash flows, are used to determine fair value for the remaining financial instruments. the fair value of interest-rate swaps is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows.

the nominal value less estimated credit adjustments of trade receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. the fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to Mirvac for similar financial instruments.

transaction costs are included in the initial carrying amounts of the financial instruments, which are not carried at fair value through profit or loss.

Property, plant and equipment

property, plant and equipment comprises land and buildings, plant and equipment (including hotel plant and equipment), owner-occupied hotel management lots, owner-occupied freehold hotels, owner-occupied properties and investment properties under construction.

increases in the carrying amounts arising on the revaluation of certain classes of property, plant and equipment are credited, net of tax, to the asset revaluation reserve in equity. to the extent that the increase reverses a decrease previously recognised in income statement, the increase is first recognised in the income statement. Decreases that reverse previous increases of the same asset are first charged against revaluation reserves directly in equity to the extent of the remaining reserve attributable to the asset; all other decreases are charged to the income statement.

i) Plant and equipment (including hotel plant and equipment)

plant and equipment (including hotel plant and equipment) is stated at historical cost less depreciation. historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items.

ii) owner‑occupied hotel management lots

hotel management lots are classified as owner-occupied where the lot is owned and managed by Mirvac. the management lots, land and buildings are shown at fair value, less subsequent depreciation for buildings. Fair values are derived through annual Directors’ valuations. any accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is revalued to fair value.

iii) owner‑occupied freehold hotels

owner-occupied freehold hotels are shown at fair value, less subsequent depreciation for buildings. Fair values are determined by external valuers on a rotation basis with one-half of the portfolio being revalued annually. those assets which are not subject to an external valuation at the reporting date are fair valued internally by Directors. any accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is revalued to fair value.

iv) owner‑occupied administration properties

administration properties are classified as

owner-occupied where Mirvac occupies more than 10 per cent of the total lettable area of the individual property. owner-occupied administration properties are shown at fair value, less subsequent depreciation for buildings. Fair values are determined by external valuers on a rotation basis with one-half of the portfolio being revalued annually. those assets which are not subject to an external valuation at the reporting date are fair valued internally by Directors. any accumulated depreciation at the date of revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is revalued to fair value.

v) Property under construction

property under construction is carried at cost.

subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will flow to Mirvac and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. all other repairs and maintenance are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are incurred.

land is not depreciated. Depreciation on other assets is calculated using the straight line method to allocate their cost or revalued amounts, net of their residual values, over their estimated useful lives, as follows:

Buildings	40 years
plant and equipment	3 — 15 years
offce leasehold improvements	1 — 10years

MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

notes to the financial statements

Note 1. sUMMARy oF sIGNIFICANt ACCoUNtING PoLICIes / CoNtINUed

the assets residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each Balance sheet date.

an asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s carrying amount is greater than its estimate recoverable amount (note 1: impairment of assets).

gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with carrying amount. these are included in the income statement on a net basis when the risks and rewards pass to the purchaser. when revalued assets are sold, it is Mirvac’s policy to transfer the amounts included in other reserves in respect of those assets to retained earnings.

Investment property

i) Investment properties

investment properties are properties held for long-term rental yields and for capital appreciation.

investment properties are revalued by external valuers on a rotation basis with one-half of the portfolio being valued annually. investment properties which are not subject to an external valuation at the reporting date are fair valued internally by management.

the carrying amount of the investment properties recorded in the Balance sheet includes components relating to lease incentives.

ii) Investment properties under redevelopment

existing investment properties being redeveloped for continued future use are carried at fair value.

Lease incentives

lease incentives provided under an operating lease are recognised on a straight-line basis against rental income.

as these incentives are repaid out of future lease payments, they are recognised as an asset in the consolidated Balance sheet as a component of the carrying amount of investment properties and amortised over the lease period.

where the investment property is supported by a valuation that incorporates the value of fit-outs, the investment property is revalued back to the valuation amount after the lease incentive amortisation has been charged as an expense.

Intangible assets

i) Goodwill

goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of Mirvac’s share of the net identifiable assets of the acquired subsidiary/associate at the date of acquisition. goodwill on acquisitions of subsidiaries is included in intangible assets. goodwill on acquisition of joint ventures and associates is included in investments in joint ventures and associates respectively. goodwill acquired in business combinations is not amortised. instead, goodwill is tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that it might be impaired, and is carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses. gains and losses on the disposal of an entity include the carrying amount of goodwill relating to the entity sold. goodwill is allocated to Cgu’s for the purpose of impairment testing. each of those Cgu’s represents Mirvac’s primary reporting segments (note 3).

ii) Management rights

Management rights are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment losses. amortisation is charged to the income statement on a straight line basis over the estimated useful lives of the intangible assets. Management rights held in relation to an unlisted property fund are amortised over the useful life of seven years. all other management rights have an indefinite useful life and are not amortised but tested annually for impairment.

iii) Carbon sequestration rights

Carbon sequestration rights are recorded as intangible assets and are stated at historic cost. Cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to the acquisition of the items. Carbon sequestration rights are not amortised. instead, carbon sequestration rights are tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that they might be impaired, and are carried at cost less accumulated impairment losses.

trade and other payables

these amounts represent liabilities for goods and services provided to Mirvac prior to the end of financial year which are unpaid. the amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.

payables, whose settlement is deferred, are measured at amortised cost.

Borrowings and borrowing costs

Borrowings are initially recognised at fair value, net of transaction costs incurred. Borrowings are subsequently measured at amortised cost. any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the redemption amount is recognised in the income statement over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest method. Fees paid on the establishment of loan facilities, which are not incremental cost relating to the actual draw down of the facility, are recognised as prepayments and amortised on a straight line basis over the term of the facility.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless Mirvac has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least 12 months after the Balance sheet date.

48 MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

Note 1. sUMMARy oF sIGNIFICANt ACCoUNtING PoLICIes / CoNtINUed

Borrowing costs incurred for the construction of any qualifying asset are capitalised during the period of time that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use or sale. other borrowing costs are expensed.

employee benefits

i) wages and salaries, annual leave and sick leave

liabilities for wages and salaries, including non-monetary benefits, annual leave and accumulating sick leave expected to be settled within 12 months of the reporting date are recognised in other creditors and accruals in respect of employees’ services up to the reporting date and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are settled. liabilities for non-accumulating sick leave are recognised when the leave is taken and measured at the rates paid or payable.

ii) Long service leave

the liability for long service leave vesting within 12 months of the reporting date is recognised and is measured in accordance with (i) above and included in provisions. the liability for long service leave vesting more than 12 months from the reporting date is recognised and measured as the present value of expected future payments to be made in respect of services provided by employees up to the reporting date. Consideration is given to expected future wage and salary levels, experience of employee departures and periods of service. expected future payments are discounted using interest rates attaching, at the reporting date, to national government guaranteed securities with terms to maturity that match, as closely as possible, the estimated future cash flows.

iii) share‑based payments

share based payments are recognised for the following plans:

Current lti plan

the fair value at grant date is independently determined using a bi-nomial option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the vesting and performance criteria, the impact of dilution, the security price at grant date and expected price volatility of the underlying security, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the equity instrument. the fair value is then expensed on a straight line basis over the vesting period of equity instruments.

employee exemption plan

share based expense relating to the securities issued under the employee exemption plan (eep) are expensed to the income statement in the period to which they are granted with a corresponding increase to Mirvac’s contributed equity.

superseded plans

the fair value of equity instruments granted under the superseded lti plan and eis is recognised as an employee benefit expense with a corresponding increase in equity. the fair value is measured at grant date and recognised over the vesting period. no expense relating to eis has been recognised in the financial year ended 30 June 2009.

iv) Bonuses

a liability for bonuses payable is recognised in other creditors and accruals where there is a present obligation to settle the liability and at least one of the following conditions is met:

there are formal terms for determining the amount of the benefit;
the amounts to be paid are determined before the time of completion of the financial report; or
past practice gives clear evidence of the amount of the obligation.

liabilities for bonuses are expected to be settled within 12 months and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when they are settled.

v) termination benefits

termination benefits are payable when employment is terminated before the normal retirement date, or when an employee accepts voluntary redundancy in exchange for these benefits. Mirvac recognises termination benefits when it is demonstrably committed to either terminating the employment of current employees according to a detailed formal plan without possibility of withdrawal or providing termination benefits as a result of an offer made to encourage voluntary redundancy. Benefits falling due more than 12 months after Balance sheet date are discounted to present value.

vi) Retirement benefit obligations

Contributions to the defined contribution fund are recognised as an expense as they become payable. prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that a cash refund or a reduction in the future payments is available.

Provisions

provisions for legal claims, forward contracts and make good obligations are recognised when the group has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events, it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation and the amount has been reliably estimated. provisions are not recognised for future operating losses

where there are a number of similar obligations, the likelihood that an outflow will be required in settlement is determined by considering the class of obligations as a whole. a provision is recognised even if the likelihood of an outflow with respect to any one item included in the same class of obligations may be small.

provisions are measured at the present value of management’s best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the reporting date. the discount rate used to determine the present value reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the liability.

the increase in the provision due to the passage of time is recognised as interest expense.

notes to the financial statements

Note 1. sUMMARy oF sIGNIFICANt ACCoUNtING PoLICIes / CoNtINUed

Contributed equity

ordinary securities are classified as equity.

incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new securities or options are shown in equity as a deduction, net of tax, from the proceeds. incremental costs directly attributable to the issue of new securities or options, or for the acquisition of a business, are not included in the cost of the acquisition as part of the purchase consideration.

in accordance with aasB 2 “share Based payments”, securities issued as part of the Mirvac lti and eis are not classified as ordinary securities, until such time as the employee loans are fully repaid or they leave Mirvac.

distributions

provision is made for the amount of any distribution declared on or before the end of the year but not distributed at balance date.

earnings per security

i) Basic earnings per security

Basic earnings per security are calculated by dividing the profit attributable to equity holders of the company by the weighted average number of ordinary securities outstanding during the year. in calculating basic earnings per security, securities issued under the Mirvac eis have been excluded from the weighted average number of securities.

ii) diluted earnings per security

Diluted earnings per security adjusts the figures used in the determination of basic earnings per security to take into account the after income tax effect of interest and other financing costs associated with dilutive potential ordinary securities (including those securities issued under the eis) and the weighted average number of securities assumed to have been issued for no consideration in relation to dilutive potential ordinary securities.

Goods and services tax (“Gst”)

revenues, expenses and assets are recognised net of the amount of associated gst, unless the gst incurred is not recoverable from the taxation authority. in this case it is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset or as part of the expense.

receivables and payables are stated inclusive of the amount of gst receivable or payable. the net amount of gst recoverable from, or payable to, the taxation authority is included with other receivables or payables in the Balance sheet.

Cash flows are presented on a gross basis. the gst components of cash flows arising from investing or financing activities which are recoverable from, or payable to the taxation authority, are presented as operating cash flow.

Comparative information

where necessary, comparative information has been reclassified to achieve consistency in disclosure with current financial year amounts and other disclosures.

Rounding of amounts

Mirvac is of a kind referred to in Class order 98/0100, issued by the australian securities and investments Commission, relating to the “rounding off” of amounts in the Financial report. amounts in the Financial report have been rounded off in accordance with that Class order to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, the nearest dollar.

New accounting standards and AAsB Interpretations

in the current year, Mirvac has adopted all of the new and revised standards and interpretations issued by the australian accounting standards Board (“aasB”) that are relevant to its operations and effective for the current annual reporting period.

Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for 30 June 2009 reporting periods. Mirvac’s assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below.

aasB 8 operating segments and aasB 2007-3 amendments to australian accounting standards arising from aasB 8 (effective from 1 January 2009) aasB 8 will result in a significant change in the approach to segment reporting, as it requires adoption of a “management approach” to reporting on financial performance. the information being reported will be based on what the key decision makers use internally for evaluating segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources to operating segments. Mirvac will adopt aasB 8 from 1 July 2009. it is likely to result in no increase in the number of reportable segments presented. in addition, the segments will be reported in a manner that is more consistent with the internal reporting provided to the chief operating decision-maker. as goodwill is allocated by management to groups of Cgu’s on a segment level, the change in reportable segment may also require a reallocation of goodwill. however, this is not expected to result in any additional impairment of goodwill.
revised aasB 123 Borrowing Costs and aasB 2007-6 amendments to australian accounting standards arising from aasB 123 (effective from 1 January 2009) the revised aasB 123 has removed the option to expense all borrowing costs and — when adopted — will require the capitalisation of all borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of a qualifying asset. there will be no impact on the financial report of Mirvac, as the group already capitalises borrowing costs relating to qualifying assets.
revised aasB 101 presentation of Financial statements and aasB 2007-8 amendments to australian accounting standards arising from aasB 101 (effective from 1 January 2009). the september 2007 revised aasB 101 requires the presentation of a statement of comprehensive income and makes changes to the statement of changes in equity, but will not affect any of the amounts recognised in the Financial statements. if an entity has made a prior period adjustment or has reclassified items in the Financial statements, it will need to disclose a third balance sheet (statement of Financial position), this one being as at the beginning of the comparative period. Mirvac will apply the revised standard from 1 July 2009.

50 MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

Note 1. sUMMARy oF sIGNIFICANt ACCoUNtING PoLICIes / CoNtINUed

aasB 2008-1 amendments to australian accounting standards — share-based payments: vesting Conditions and Cancellations (effective from 1 January 2009) aasB 2008-1 clarifies that vesting conditions are service conditions and performance conditions only and that other features of a share-based payment are not vesting conditions. it also specifies that all cancellations, whether by the entity or by other parties, should receive the same accounting treatment. Mirvac will apply the revised standard from 1 July 2009, but it is not expected to affect the accounting for the group’s share-based payments.

— revised aasB 3 Business Combinations, aasB 127 Consolidated and separate Financial statements and aasB 2008-3 amendments to australian accounting standards arising from aasB 3 and aasB 127 (effective 1 July 2009). the revised aasB 3 continues to apply the acquisition method to business combinations, but with some significant changes. For example, all payments to purchase a business are to be recorded at fair value at the acquisition date, with contingent payments classified as debt subsequently remeasured through the income statement. there is a choice on an acquisition-by-acquisition basis to measure the non-controlling interest in the acquiree either at fair value or at the non-controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s net assets. all acquisition-related costs must be expensed. this is different to Mirvac’s current policy which is set out in note 1(i) above. the revised aasB 127 requires the effects of all transactions with non-controlling interests to be recorded in equity if there is no change in control and these transactions will no longer result in goodwill or gains and losses, see note 1(b)(i). the standard also specifies the accounting when control is lost. any remaining interest in the entity is remeasured to fair value, and a gain or loss is recognised in profit or loss. this is consistent with Mirvac’s current accounting policy if significant influence is not retained. Mirvac will apply the revised standards prospectively to all business combinations and transactions with non-controlling interests from 1 July 2009.

aasB 2008-6 Further amendments to australian accounting standards arising from the annual improvements project (effective 1 July 2009) the amendments to aasB 5 Discontinued operations and aasB 1 First-time adoption of australian-equivalents to iFrs are part of the iasB’s annual improvements project published in May 2008. they clarify that all of a subsidiary’s assets and liabilities are classified as held for sale if a partial disposal sale plan results in loss of control. relevant disclosures should be made for this subsidiary if the definition of a discontinued operation is met. the group will apply the amendments prospectively to all partial disposals of subsidiaries from 1 July 2009.

— amendments to aasB 5 Discontinued operations and aasB 1 First-time adoption of australian-equivalents to iFrs are part of the iasB’s annual improvements project published in May 2008. they clarify that all of a subsidiary’s assets and liabilities are classified as held for sale if a partial disposal sale plan results in loss of control. relevant disclosures should be made for this subsidiary if the definition of a discontinued operation is met. Mirvac will apply the amendments prospectively to all partial disposals of subsidiaries from 1 July 2009.

— aasB interpretation 15 agreements for the Construction of real estate (effective 1 January 2009) aasB-i 15 clarifies whether aasB 111 Construction Contracts should be applied to particular transactions. Mirvac intends to apply the interpretation from 1 July 2009. it has reviewed its current agreements for the sale of real estate in light of the new guidance and concluded that there would be a reduction $5.95 million of after tax profit for the current financial year if the group had adopted the interpretation for the current period.

aasB 2008-7 amendments to australian accounting standards — Cost of an investment in a subsidiary, Jointly Controlled entity or associate (effective 1 July 2009). in July 2008, the aasB approved amendments to aasB 1 First-time adoption of iFrs and aaBs 127 Consolidated and separate Financial statements. Mirvac will apply the revised rules prospectively from 1 July 2009. after that date, all dividends received from investments in subsidiaries, jointly controlled entities or associates will be recognised as revenue, even if they are paid out of pre-acquisition profits, but the investments may need to be tested for impairment as a result of the dividend payment. under the entity’s current policy, these dividends are deducted from the cost of the investment. Furthermore, when a new intermediate parent entity is created in internal reorganisations it will measure its investment in subsidiaries at the carrying amounts of the net assets of the subsidiary rather than the subsidiary’s fair value.
aasB interpretation 16 hedges of a net investment in a Foreign operation (effective 1 october 2008) aasB-i 16 clarifies which foreign currency risks qualify as hedged risk in the hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation and that hedging instruments may be held by any entity or entities within the group. it also provides guidance on how an entity should determine the amounts to be reclassified from equity to profit or loss for both the hedging instrument and the hedged item. Mirvac will apply the interpretation prospectively from 1 July 2009. there will be no changes to the accounting for the existing hedge of the net investment in the united Kingdom subsidiary.

notes to the financial statements

Note 1. sUMMARy oF sIGNIFICANt ACCoUNtING PoLICIes / CoNtINUed

— aasB 2008-8 amendment to ias 39 Financial instruments: recognition and Measurement (effective 1 July 2009) aasB 2008-8 amends aasB 139 Financial instruments: recognition and Measurement and must be applied retrospectively in accordance with aasB 108 accounting policies, Changes in accounting estimates and errors. the amendment makes two significant changes. it prohibits designating inflation as a hedgeable component of a fixed rate debt. it also prohibits including time value in the one-sided hedged risk when designating options as hedges. Mirvac will apply the amended standard from 1 July 2009. it is not expected to have a material impact on the group’s financial statements.

aasB interpretation 17 Distribution of non-cash assets to owners and aasB 2008-13 amendments to australian accounting standards arising from aasB interpretation 17 aasB-i 17 applies to situations where an entity pays dividends by distributing non-cash assets to its securityholders. these distributions will need to be measured at fair value and the entity will need to recognise the difference between the fair value and the carrying amount of the distributed assets in the income statement on distribution. this is different to Mirvac’s current policy which is to measure distributions of non-cash assets at their carrying amounts. the interpretation further clarifies when a liability for the dividend must be recognised and that it is also measured at fair value. Mirvac will apply the interpretation prospectively from 1 July 2009.
aasB 140 (amendment) investment property and consequential amendments to aasB 116) (effective from 1 January 2009). the amendments were made by aasB 2008-5 amendments to australia accounting standards arising from the annual improvements project in July 2008. property that is under construction or development for future use as investment property is within the scope of aasB 140. where the fair value model is applied, such property is, therefore, measured at fair value. however, where fair value of investment property under construction is not reliably measurable, the property is measured at cost until the earlier of the date construction is completed and the date at which fair value becomes reliably measurable. the consolidated entity currently has property, plant and equipment which is being developed for use as an investment property on completion and will apply this amended standard in future reporting periods. the consolidated entity will apply the amendments from 1 July 2009. it is not expected to have a material impact on the consolidated entity’s financial statements.

Note 2. CRItICAL ACCoUNtING estIMAtes ANd JUdGeMeNts

estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that may have a financial impact on the entity and that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

a) Critical judgements in applying Mirvac’s accounting policies

the following are the critical judgements (estimations are detailed below), that management has made in the process of applying Mirvac’s accounting policies and that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the Financial statements.

i) Revenue recognition

Construction revenue

Mirvac has recognised construction revenue amounting to $78,760,000 (2008: $85,144,000) using the percentage of completion basis. the percentage of completion is determined by calculating the expenses incurred to date as a percentage of total estimated costs. Management is confident that the percentage of completion calculated in determining the above revenue represents that actual percentage of the completed contracts.

Development revenue

the measurement of development revenue, which is recognised when the risks and rewards of ownership are transferred, requires management to use estimations and judgements around future selling prices, selling rates and future development costs. Development revenue recognised for the period amounts to $1,012,049,000 (2008: $1,095,365,000).

b) Key sources of estimation uncertainty

in preparing the Financial statements of Mirvac, management are required to make estimations and assumptions. the following are the key assumptions concerning the future, and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the balance sheet date, that have a significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year:

i) Inventories

Mirvac is required to carry inventory at the lower of cost or net realisable value. the net realisable value of inventories is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less estimated costs of completion and cost to sell. estimates of net realisable value are based on the most reliable evidence available at the time the estimates are made, of the amount the inventories are expected to realise and the estimate of costs to complete. these estimates take into consideration fluctuations of price or cost directly relating to events occurring after the end of the period to the extent that such events confirm conditions existing at the end of the period.

the key assumptions require the use of management judgement and are reviewed half-yearly. During the period Mirvac has expensed $186,506,000 (2008: $219,871,000) in relation to inventory that was carried in excess of the net realisable value.

ii) Impairment of goodwill

Mirvac annually tests whether goodwill has suffered any impairment, in accordance with the accounting policy stated in note 1. Determining whether goodwill is impaired requires an estimation of the value in use of the Cgu’s to which goodwill has been allocated. the value in use calculation requires the entity to estimate the future cash flows expected to arise from each Cgu and a suitable discount rate in order to calculate the present value. the carrying amount of goodwill at the balance sheet date was $45,536,000 (2008: $259,474,000). there was an impairment loss recognised during the period of $224,086,000 (2008: nil). Details on the assumptions used are provided in note 18.

During the period Mirvac impaired a number of investments accounted for using the equity method. the investments are tested for impairment, by comparing recoverable amounts (higher of value in use and fair value less costs to sell) with the carrying amounts, whenever there is indication that the investment may be impaired. in determining the value in use of the investment, Mirvac estimates the present value of the estimated future cash flows expected to arise from distributions to be received from the investment and from its ultimate disposal. Details of this impairment and the assumptions used by management in assessing the impairment are provided in notes 29 and 30.

iv) Fair value of investments not traded in active markets

the fair value of investments that are not traded in an active market is determined by the unit price as advised by the Fund Manager. the unit price is determined by the net present value calculations using future cash flows and an appropriate post tax discount rate. the carrying value of investments not traded in an active market is determined using the above described techniques and assumptions are $18,489,000 (2008: $19,262,000) and are disclosed as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (note 10).

v) Carrying value of management rights

the carrying value of management rights are initially carried at fair values as at the date of acquisition. Mirvac has used discounted cash flow analysis to assess the carrying value of the acquired management rights. During the period Mirvac assessed an impairment of management rights of $48,531,000 (2008: $18,910,000) which was expensed during the period. Further information on the impairment expense is detailed in note 18. the carrying value of management rights at 30 June 2009 was $13,048,000 (2008: $60,343,000) and is disclosed as part of intangibles (note 18).

vi) Valuation of investment properties and owner occupied properties

Mirvac uses judgement in respect of the fair values of investment properties and owner occupied properties. investment properties and owner occupied properties are re-valued by external valuers on a rotation basis with approximately one half of the portfolio being valued annually. investment properties which are not subject to an external valuation at the reporting date are fair valued internally by management. the assumptions used in the estimations of fair values include expected future market rentals, discount rates, market prices and economic conditions. the carrying value as at balance date for investment property is $3,210,106,000 (2008: $3,436,782,000) and owner occupied property $255,009,000 (2008: $285,803,000). Details on investment properties provided in note 16 and owner occupied note 17.

vii) Valuation of assets acquired in business combinations

During the year Mirvac completed the acquisitions of Mirvac pacific pty limited and Mirvac uK property limited (note 39). on recognising these acquisitions, management used estimations and assumptions on the fair value of the assets and liabilities assumed at date of exchange.

viii) Valuation of share based payment transactions

valuation of share based payment transactions is performed using judgements around the fair value of the equity instruments on the date at which they are granted. the fair value is determined using a bi-nominal option pricing model. Mirvac recognises a share based payment over the vesting period which is based on the estimation of the number of equity instruments likely to vest. at the end of the vesting period Mirvac will assess the total expense recognised comparison to the number of equity instruments that ultimately vested.

ix) Valuation of derivatives and other financial instruments

Mirvac uses judgement in selecting the appropriate valuation technique for financial instruments not quoted in an active market. valuation of derivative financial instruments involves assumptions based on quoted market rates adjusted for specific features of the instrument. the valuations of any financial instrument may change in the event of market volatility.

Note 3. seGMeNtAL INFoRMAtIoN

a) Primary segments

Mirvac’s segment reporting format is that of business segments as the group’s risks and rates of return are affected predominantly by differences in the products and services produced.

the operating businesses are organised and managed separately according to the nature of the products and services provided, with each segment representing a strategic business unit that offers different products and serves different markets. Mirvac is organised into two core and one non core business areas:

d) tax consolidation legislation

Mirvac limited and its wholly owned australian controlled entities have implemented the tax consolidation legislation as of 1 July 2003. the accounting policy in relation to this legislation is set out in note 1. on adoption of the tax consolidation legislation, the entities in the tax consolidated group entered into a tax sharing agreement which, in the opinion of the Directors, limits the joint and several liability of the wholly owned entities in the case of a default by the head entity, Mirvac limited.

the entities within the consolidated tax group have also entered into a tax funding agreement under which the wholly owned entities fully compensate Mirvac limited for any current tax payable assumed and are compensated by Mirvac limited for any current tax receivable and deferred tax assets relating to unused tax losses or unused tax credits that are transferred to Mirvac limited under the tax consolidation legislation. the funding amounts are determined by reference to the amounts recognised in the wholly owned entities’ financial statements. the amounts receivable/ payable under the tax funding agreement are due upon receipt of the funding advice from the head entity, which is issued as soon as practicable after the end of each financial year. the head entity may also require payment of interim funding amounts to assist with its obligations to pay tax instalments. the funding amounts are recognised as current intercompany receivables or payables.

1) Current and prior year numbers have been adjusted to reflect the impact of the rights issues, as required by accounting standard aasB 133. this is because the exercise price of the rights issue was less than the fair value of the securities and so includes a bonus element. the number of ordinary securities for both periods prior to the rights issue is multiplied by the fair value per share immediately before the exercise of rights divided by the theoretical ex-rights fair value per share.
2) Diluted securities does not include the options and rights issued under the current lti plan as the exercise of these equity instruments are contingent on conditions during the vesting period.

Further information in relation to amounts due from related entities is set out in note 35 and loans to KMp is set out in note 33.

a) trade receivables

the average credit period on sales of goods is 30 days. no interest is charged on any outstanding trade receivables. refer to note 8 (d) on discussions regarding the credit risk of receivables.

b) other receivables

these amounts generally arise from transactions outside of the classification of trade receivables such as gst receivables and other sundry debtors.

c) Bad and doubtful trade receivables

Movements in the provision for doubtful debts are detailed below:

		Consolidated

Closingbalance 30 June	(1,924)	(1,314)

Mirvac has written off $472,000 (2008: $238,000) of bad and doubtful trade receivables during the current year. this loss has been applied against the provision for doubtful debts.

MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

notes to the financial statements

Note 8. ReCeIVABLes / CoNtINUed

d) Credit risk

receivables consist of a large number of customers. Mirvac does not have any significant credit risk exposure to a single customer or groups of customers. ongoing credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of its customers and, where appropriate, an allowance for doubtful debtors is raised. Mirvac holds collateral in certain circumstances which takes the form of either bank guarantees, security deposits, personal guarantee or mortgage over property until completion. there is no concentration of credit risk with respect to receivables as Mirvac has a large number of customers, geographically dispersed.

the ageing of receivables is detailed below:

	454,526	(1,924)	494,015	(1,314)

the parent entity has no balances past due. under certain circumstances, Mirvac has not provided for all balances past due as it has been determined that there has not been a significant change in credit quality at reporting date based upon the customer’s payment history and analysis of the customer’s financial accounts.

the group holds collateral over receivables of $131,495,000 (2008: $75,177,000). the fair value of the collateral held equals the fair value of the receivables for which the collateral is held. the terms of the collateral are if payment due is not received per the agreed terms, Mirvac is able to claim the collateral held.

e) Interest rate risk exposures

refer to note 36 for Mirvac’s exposure to interest rate risk.

Note 15. otheR FINANCIAL Assets / CoNtINUed

c) entities subject to class order

all wholly owned companies incorporated in australia are parties to a Deed of Cross guarantee under which each company guarantees the debts of the others. By entering into the Deed, the wholly owned companies have been relieved from the requirement to prepare a financial report and directors’ report under Class order 98/1418 (as amended by Class order 98/2017 and 00/0321) issued by the australian securities and investments Commission. the entities included are listed in note 15 (a).

Companies noted in (a) above as being included in the class order, are a ‘Closed group’ for the purposes of the Class order, and as there are no other parties to the Deed of Cross guarantee that are controlled by the Company, they also represent the ‘extended Closed group’. as a condition of the Class order, the companies have entered into a Deed of Cross guarantee. the effect of the deed is that Mirvac limited has guaranteed to pay any deficiency in the event of winding up of a controlled entity. the controlled entities also have given a similar guarantee in the event that Mirvac limited is wound up.

the aggregated income statement and balance sheet for year ended 30 June 2009 of the entities which are members of the “Closed group” are as follows:

b) Valuation basis

investment properties are carried at fair value, being the amounts for which the properties could be exchanged between willing parties in an arm’s length transaction, based on current prices in an active market for similar properties in the same location and condition and subject to similar leases, with any gain or loss arising from a change in fair value recognised in the income statement in the period. investment properties are revalued by external valuers on a rotation basis with approximately one-half of the portfolio being valued annually. investment properties which are not subject to an external valuation at the reporting date are fair valued internally by management. valuation methods used to determine the fair value of investment properties include market sales comparison, discounted cash flow and capitalisation rate (“cap rate”). the fair value for a property may be determined by the group using a combination of these and other valuation methods.

Market sales Comparison: the sales comparison approach utilises recent sales of comparable properties, adjusted for any differences including the nature, location and lease profile, to indicate the fair value of a property. where there is a lack of recent sales activity adjustments are made from previous comparable sales to reflect changes in economic conditions.

Discounted Cash Flow: Discounted cash flow projections derived from contracted rents, market rents, operating costs, lease incentives, lease fees, capital expenditure and future income on vacant space are discounted at a rate to arrive at a value. the discount rate is a market assessment of the risk associated with the cash flows, and the nature, location and tenancy profile of the property relative to returns from alternative investments, consumer price index rates and liquidity risk. it is assumed that the property is sold at the end of the investment period at a terminal value. terminal value is determined by using an appropriate terminal cap rate. Mirvac’s terminal cap rates are in the range of an additional 25 to 100 basis points above the respective property’s cap rate.

Capitalisation rate: an assessment is made of fully leased net income based on contracted rents, market rents, operating costs and future income on vacant space. the adopted fully leased net income is capitalised in perpetuity from the valuation date at an appropriate capitalisation rate. the cap rate reflects the nature, location and tenancy profile of the property together with current market investment criteria, as evidenced by current sales evidence. various adjustments including incentives, capital expenditure, and reversions to market rent are made to arrive at the property value.

a) Valuations of owner‑occupied buildings

owner-occupied buildings are revalued by external valuers on a rotation basis with approximately one-half of the portfolio (including owner occupied buildings) being valued annually. the basis of valuation of owner occupied buildings is fair value being the amounts for which assets could be exchanged between knowledgeable willing parties in an arm’s length transaction. owner occupied buildings not externally valued during the reporting period are carried at internal Directors’ valuation. the revaluation surplus net of applicable deferred income taxes was credited to the asset revaluation reserve in equity (note 25).

2) Management rights are primarily held in relation to funds established or rights established by entities acquired by Mirvac. these funds are considered to be open-ended and therefore have no expiry. the group also holds strategic stakes in these funds in order to protect its interests.

MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

notes to the financial statements

Note 18. INtANGIBLe Assets / CoNtINUed

b) Key assumptions used for value‑in‑use calculations for Goodwill and Intangibles

the recoverable amount of a Cgu is determined using the higher of fair value less cost to sell and its value in use.

the value in-use calculation is based on financial budgets and forecasts approved by management covering a five-year period. For the hotels and investment management Cgu’s, cash flows beyond the five-year period are extrapolated using the estimated growth rates stated below. For the property investment and property development Cgu’s no forecast growth rate is assumed as the value in use calculations are based on forecast cashflows from existing projects and investment properties. the growth rate has been adjusted to reflect current market conditions and does not exceed the long-term average growth rate for the business in which the Cgu operates.

the discount rates used are post-tax (except in relation to the property development and property investment Cgu’s which use a pre-tax discount rate) and reflect specific risks relating to the relevant segments and the countries in which they operate.

a terminal growth rate of 3% has also been applied.

	Growth rate 1	discount rate	growth rate1	Discount rate
Cgu	2009	2009	2008	2008
property investment	— 2	10%	5%	10%
property development	— 3	18%	—3	18%
hotels	3%	13%	5%	13%
investment management	1%	13%	10%	11%

1) weighted average growth rate used to extrapolate cash flows beyond the budget period.

2) the value in-use calculation is based on financial budgets and forecasts approved by management covering a five-year period. no forecast growth rate is assumed as the value in use calculations are based on forecast cashflows from existing projects and investment properties.

3) no forecast growth rate as value-in use calculations based on forecast cashflows of existing projects.

the coverable amount of intangibles relating to property investment Cgu and the hotel Cgu, exceeds the carrying value at 30 June 2009. Management consider that for the carrying value to exceed the recoverable amount there would have to be unreasonable changes to key assumptions. Management consider the chances of these changes occurring as unlikely.

c) Impairment of goodwill

Investment Management

During the period the carrying value of goodwill attributable to the investment management Cgu was impaired by $100,704,000 (2008: nil). the impairment charge represents the difference between the net present value of future cash flows of the Cgu (recoverable amount) and the carrying value of the goodwill. the lower forecast future cash flow projections are driven by a slowing in the level of transaction fees, slower growth in Funds under Management (“FuM”), and the potential winding up of funds deemed to be non-core and non-scaleable.

included in the impairment figure is $6,012,000 in relation to the acquisition of the Chantrey business in the united Kingdom. as a result of current market conditions this business has been unable to achieve its forecast growth assumptions. accordingly an impairment review was undertaken based on a value-in-use calculation. the goodwill arose and was impaired during the year.

development

During the period the carrying value of goodwill attributable to the property development Cgu was impaired by $123,382,000 (2008: nil). the impairment charge represents the difference between the net present value of future cash flows and the carrying value of goodwill. the lower forecast cash flows are a result of the deferral of a number of residential and non-residential development projects, and a more conservative outlook for future growth in light of the current economic environment.

76 MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

Note 18. INtANGIBLe Assets / CoNtINUed

d) Impairment of intangibles

Management rights

During the period the carrying value of management rights attributable to the investment management Cgu were impaired by $46,031,000 (2008: $18,910,000). the impairment charge arose for the same reasons as detailed above in point (c).

the carrying value of management rights attributable to the property development Cgu were impaired by $2,500,000 due to deterioration in cash flows from the underlying investment.

Indefinite useful life of management rights

Management rights are primarily held in relation to funds established or rights established by entities acquired by Mirvac. these funds are considered to be open-ended and therefore have no expiry.

Indefinite useful life of carbon sequestration rights

During the period the carrying value of the carbon sequestration rights, held by the australian sustainable Forestry investors (“asFi”), totalling $1,028,000 were fully impaired as a result of the recommendations contained within the australian Carbon pollution reduction scheme’s white paper. the white paper recommended that no value be ascribed to carbon sequestered prior to 1 January 2008. the majority of the carbon value held by asFi relates to the period prior to 1 January 2008.

Unsecured bank loans

Mirvac has an unsecured revolving syndicated loan facility of $1,112.5 million (2008: $2,225 million) maturing in June 2011. Mirvac has entered into a new unsecured syndicated term facility of $805 million maturing in January 2012 which replaces the previous facility expiring in June 2009.

Mirvac has $150 million of unsecured bilateral facilities of which $100 million expires in January 2012 and $50 million in June 2011. subject to the compliance with the terms, each of these bank loan facilities may be drawn at any time.

domestic medium term notes

Mirvac completed a domestic bond issue in september 2006 for $200 million maturing in september 2010. this was followed up by a second domestic bond issue in February 2007 for $300 million maturing in March 2010. interest is payable either quarterly or semi-annually in arrears in accordance with the terms of the notes.

Foreign medium term notes

Mirvac completed a note issue in the us private placement market in november 2006. the issue is made up of us Dollar 275 million maturing in november 2016 and us Dollar 100 million maturing in november 2018. an additional australian Dollar 10 million maturing in november 2016 was also issued in conjunction with this placement. interest is payable semi-annually in arrears for all notes. the notes were issued with fixed and floating rate coupons payable in us Dollars and swapped back to australian Dollars floating rate coupons through cross currency principal and interest rate swaps.

other bank borrowings

Controlled entities have secured bank facilities totalling $122.5 million (2008: $77 million) maturing in February 2010 and June 2010.

Lease liabilities

lease liabilities are effectively secured as the rights to the leased asset revert to the lessor in the event of default.

Future developments

the group has a significant cash balance at year end due to the capital raising completed in June 2009. the funds are intended to reduce debt upon maturity with $300 million of medium terms notes due for repayment in March 2010 and $200 million due in september 2010 as well as some other facilities where debt will be repaid upon the next rollover.

the classes above are readily traded on organised markets in standardised form. the fair value for payables less than 12 months is deemed to equal the carrying amounts. all other payables are discounted if the effect of discounting is material.

i) on Balance sheet

the fair value of borrowings is based upon market prices where a market exists or by discounting the expected future cash flows by the current interest rates for liabilities with similar risk profiles.

ii) off Balance sheet

the parent entity and certain controlled entities have potential financial liabilities which may arise from certain contingencies disclosed in note 31. as explained in those notes, no material losses are anticipated in respect of any of those contingencies and the fair value disclosed above is the Directors’ estimate of amounts which would be payable by Mirvac as consideration for the assumption of those contingencies by another party.

deferred commitment

JF infrastructure, a 50 per cent joint venture with leighton holdings, has committed to acquiring a further 75 million units in rivercity Motorway group at a price of $1.055 per unit. this is forecast to now be payable in March 2010. this commitment is recognised in the books of the joint venture as a derivative financial instrument. Based on Mirvac’s past practice of funding obligations of the joint venture, Mirvac has recognised a constructive obligation for its 50 per cent share of the net derivative value. as the forecast payment date falls within 12 months this has been reclassified as a current liability.

c) Impairment of investment

Mirvac currently holds an investment in the listed entities Mirvac real estate investment trust and Mirvac industrial trust. when there are any indicators of impairment, the carrying value of these investments are compared to the discounted forecast future cashflows. the discount rate selected allows for the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset that an investor would require if they were to choose an investment that would generate cash flows of amounts, timing and risk profile of an equivalent entity.

the impairment loss recognised during the period is in relation to Mirvac real estate investment trust. the net realisable value of this trust has decreased since 30 June 2008 due to the forecast deterioration of the trust’s earnings and distributions.

in valuing Mirvac real estate investment trust, a pre-tax discount rate of 12.15% was applied to future estimated distributions, which resulted in an impairment expense of $9,209,000 (2008: 9%; $50,813,000). the increase in discount rate applied to cash flows is reflective of current market conditions associated with the trust’s level of gearing and cost of equity. there was no impairment loss recognised during the period for Mirvac industrial trust (2008: $20,297,000).

During the period the carrying value of the investment management division’s investment in the Chantrey City regeneration Fund was impaired by $2,407,000. the impairment loss was recognised within the ‘impairment of investments and Joint ventures’ line within the income statement. Mirvac considers the booking of the impairment provision as prudent based on a number external factors currently being faced by the Chantrey City regeneration Fund and its two development projects. Mirvac limited’s position has been made independently of the positions taken by the other investors within the fund

there were no indicators of impairment in respect of other associates.

a) Impairment of investment

investments currently hold an investment in old wallgrove road trust. on a regular basis, the carrying value of these types of investments are compared to the discounted forecast future cash flows or the fair value less costs to sell of the underlying assets. there was no impairment loss recognised during the period for old wallgrove road trust (2008: $5,000,000).

Mirvac considered it prudent to make an impairment provision of $7,400,000 against the carrying value of the investment Management division’s investment in new Zealand sustainable Forestry investors (“nZsFi”). Mirvac consider the booking of the impairment provision as prudent based on a number external factors currently being faced by nZsFi. Mirvac’s position has been made independently of the positions taken by the other investors within the fund.

the carrying value of the Development division’s investment in australian Centre for life long learning (“aCFlll”) was impaired to nil during the year. Mirvac consider the booking of the impairment provision as prudent based on a number of external factors currently faced by aCFlll, mainly due to the disconnect between the required commercial return and affordability levels of education providers.

investments in joint ventures are reviewed at each balance date for any impairment and written off to the extent that the future benefits are no longer probable and do not support the carrying value in the investment.

a) securities purchased under the lti, eis and former JFg eis are by interest-free employee loans. the loans are non-recourse in the event of disposal. the stapled securities issued are held as security until the loans are repaid.
b) loans made under the employee loan scheme are interest-free, repayable over periods from six to ten years, and repayable in full upon cessation of employment. the loans are secured by mortgage over the property or securities purchased. loans issued under the employee loan scheme are subject to a periodic forgiveness schedule and may also be subject to terms set out in the service agreements.
c) securities issued under the former JFg eis and converted to Mirvac securities are interest bearing employee loans. the loans are non-recourse in the event of disposal. the stapled securities issued are held as security until the loans are repaid.

d) interest not charged excludes loans issued under lti and eis.

ii) Individuals with loans above $100,000 during the financial year / continued

e) During financial year 2009, several employees were invited to participate in an interest-free loan program which has since been closed to further entry, consistent with Mirvac’s intention to eliminate the use of loan plans as part of employee reward. the amounts of the loans range from $500,000 to $2,000,000 and must be secured against property or Mirvac securities. the loan was granted on a full recourse basis. a progressively increasing forgiveness schedule allows for no more than 50 per cent of the total loan balance to be forgiven after five years of continued service. participants have 12 months from the end of the fifth year to repay the balance due and interest is payable during this time.
f) loan repayments are made partly from distributions and from sales of underlying securities.

other than loans forgiven to specified executives as disclosed in the remuneration report, no write-downs or allowances for doubtful receivables have been recognised in relation to any loans made to Directors or specified executives.

f) other transactions with directors and KMP

there are a number of transactions between Directors and KMp with the group. the terms and conditions of these transactions are considered to be no more favourable than on similar transactions on an arms length basis.

on occasions, Directors and KMp of the group may purchase goods and services from Mirvac. these purchases are on terms and conditions available to Mirvac employees generally.

as set out in the Directors’ report a number of the Directors of Mirvac are also Directors of other companies. on occasions the group may purchase goods and services from or supply good and services to these entities. these transactions are undertaken on normal commercial terms and conditions and the Director and KMp does not directly influence these transactions.

the aggregate employee benefit and related on-cost liability includes amounts for annual leave and long service leave. the amount for long service leave that is expected to be settled more than 12 months from the reporting date is measured at its present value.

b) superannuation commitments

Mirvac offers employees based in australia as part of their remuneration the ability to participate in a staff superannuation plan issued by australian super. employees are able to choose whether to participate in this plan or a qualifying plan of their choice. the plan provides lump sum benefits on retirement, disability or death for employees who are invited by their employer to join the plan. the plan is a defined contribution plan, which complies with relevant superannuation requirements.

c) employee security/unit issues

the total of all securities issued under all employee security schemes is limited to 5 per cent of the issued securities of the stapled group in any five year period.

d) LtI Plans

eep

Current lti plan

Mirvac’s current long-term incentive scheme was introduced in 2007 following approval by securityholders at the 2007 annual general/general Meetings. this plan applies to the Managing Director, executive Directors, senior executives and other executive employees only.

one performance condition applies to the grants made in the current financial year, being measured based on: relative tsr. entitlements to the performance rights and to exercise the options will only arise if medium or higher, ranking is achieved.

as at 30 June 2009, 9,923,912 (2008: 2,910,520) performance rights and 10,464,491 (2008: 4,246,500) options were issued to participants under the plan. the number of issued rights and options are net of adjustments due to forfeiture of rights and options due to termination of employment. no performance rights or options vested during the year to 30 June 2009 (2008: nil).

superseded plans

two previous long-term incentive plans were closed with the introduction of the current plan. subject to the conditions for disposal of securities issued under the superseded lti and eis, loans are non-recourse in the event of disposal.

— eis

until 2006, Mirvac’s long-term variable remuneration for employees was its eis. the eis, which was open to all permanent employees, was designed to widely share the benefits of the group’s performance through the provision of loans to purchase Mirvac’s stapled securities. allocations were made annually, were unrestricted and fully vested on allotment. the loans were repayable via distributions received on the securities or upon their sale.

a revised lti plan was introduced in 2006 and approved by members at the group’s 2006 annual general Meeting/ general Meetings. participation in the plan was open to the Managing Director, executive Directors, other executives and eligible employees. under this plan, participants were offered a loan, calculated as a percentage of a participant’s fixed remuneration component, which has been applied to fund the acquisition of Mirvac’s stapled securities at market value.

the term of the loan is eight years. any loan balance outstanding at the end of the eighth year must be repaid at that time. the loan is also being reduced by applying the after tax amounts of any distributions paid by Mirvac to the outstanding principal. the loans are interest free and non-recourse over their term. however the loan to the Managing Director has been provided on a full recourse basis.

two performance conditions have been imposed before the securities acquired under the plan vest with the participant; being a measure based on: tsr; and absolute eps growth.

f) Fair value of security based payment

eep: the nature of the securities allotted under this plan is in substance similar to an option. the assessed fair value is expensed to the income statement as the securities vest immediately.
lti plans: Fair value at grant date have been independently determined using an option pricing model that takes into account the exercise price, the term of securities, the current price of the underlying securities, the expected volatility of the security price, the expected dividend yield and the risk-free interest rate for the term of the security. the fair value of the share based payments is calculated using the binomial option pricing model.

Note 36. FINANCIAL RIsK MANAGeMeNt

Mirvac’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks; market risk (including currency risk, fair value interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk, liquidity risk and cash flow interest rate risk. Mirvac’s overall risk management program seeks to minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of Mirvac. the group uses various derivative financial instruments to manage certain risk exposures, specifically in relation to interest rate and foreign exchange risks on borrowings.

Financial risk management is carried out by a central treasury department (“Mirvac group treasury”) under policies approved by the Board of Directors. the Board provides written principles for overall risk management, as well as written policies covering specific areas, such as mitigating foreign exchange, interest rate and credit risks, use of derivative financial instruments and investing excess liquidity. Mirvac group treasury identifies, evaluates, reports and manages financial risks in close cooperation with the group’s operating units in accordance with Board policy.

the carrying value less impairment provision of trade receivables and payables are assumed to be approximately their fair values due to their short-term nature. Derivative financial assets and liabilities are valued based upon valuation techniques.

a) Market risk

Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of a financial asset or financial liability will fluctuate because of changes in market prices. Market risk comprises currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk.

i) Currency risk

Foreign exchange risk refers to the change in value between foreign currencies and the australian dollar. this change affects the assets and liabilities of Mirvac which are denominated in currencies other than australian dollars. Mirvac foreign exchange risks arise mainly from:

borrowings denominated in currencies other than auD which are predominately usD and gBp;
investments in offshore operations which are located in the united states, united Kingdom and new Zealand;

— receipts and payments which are denominated in other currencies; and

foreign exchange risk on derivatives.

Mirvac manages its foreign exchange risk for its assets and liabilities denominated in other currencies by borrowing in the same currency as that in which the offshore business operates to form a natural hedge against the movement in exchange rates.

Mirvac manages its foreign currency borrowings with cross currency swaps which swap the obligations to pay fixed or floating us Dollar principal and interest payments to floating australian dollar interest payments. Cross currency swaps in place cover 100 per cent of the us Dollar denominated note principal outstanding. these swaps have the same maturity profiles as the underlying note obligations. this removes exposure to interest rates in the us market while creating floating exposures in the domestic market that have been managed to meet Mirvac’s target interest rate profile. the foreign currency exchange rate has been fixed for all swaps to auD/usD 0.7456.

			2009	2008

all swaps require settlement on a quarterly basis.

translation gains or losses of net investment in foreign operations are recorded through the foreign currency translation reserve. the carrying amounts of the parent entity’s financial assets and liabilities are denominated in australian dollars.

sensitivity analysis

Cross currency swaps are in place to manage the foreign exchange exposure on the us Dollar debt. these swaps have the same notional principals and maturity profiles as the underlying note obligations. Based upon current exposures, there is no material foreign exchange sensitivity in Mirvac.

ii) Interest rate risk

Mirvac’s interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings, cash and cash equivalents, receivables and derivatives.

Borrowings

Borrowings issued at variable rates expose Mirvac to cash flow interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose Mirvac to fair value interest rate risk. the group’s policy is to have a minimum of 60 per cent and a target of 70 per cent of borrowings subject to fixed or capped interest rates. this policy has been complied with at year end. the parent entity has no exposure to interest rates.

Mirvac manages its cash flow interest rate risk by using interest rate derivatives. such interest rate derivatives have the economic effect of converting borrowings from floating rates to fixed or capped rates. under the interest rate derivatives, Mirvac agrees with other parties to exchange, at specified intervals (mainly quarterly), the difference between fixed contract rates and floating-rate interest amounts calculated by reference to the agreed notional principal amounts.

the following table sets out Mirvac’s net exposure to interest rate risk by maturity periods. exposures arise predominantly from liabilities bearing variable interest rates as the group intends to hold fixed rate liabilities to maturity.

Derivative instruments used by Mirvac

Mirvac has at times entered into interest rate derivatives to convert fixed rates to floating interest rates to give Mirvac the flexibility to use existing derivative positions and maintain fixed rate exposures within the target range.

Mirvac enters into a variety of bought and/or sold option agreements which allow rates to float between certain ranges and agreements which allow the bank to cancel options if certain conditions arise, the benefit of which is lower fixed rates. the rates will revert to no worse than the floating rate payable as if no derivative was entered into. these derivatives are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value in accordance with aasB 139. Derivatives currently in place cover approximately 60.3 per cent (2008: 79.7 per cent) of the loan principal outstanding. the fixed interest rates range between 4.25 per cent and 7.00 per cent (2008: 5.57 per cent and 6.30 per cent). at 30 June 2009, the notional principal amounts, interest rates and periods of expiry of the interest rate swap contracts are as follows:

the contracts require settlement of net interest receivable or payable each reset date (generally 90 days). the settlement dates generally coincide with the dates on which interest is payable on the underlying debt. the contracts are settled on a net basis.

sensitivity analysis

Mirvac’s interest rate risk exposure arises from long-term borrowings, cash held in financial institutions and receivables. Based upon a 100 basis point increase or decrease in australian interest rates and 25 basis points increase or decrease in us or united Kingdom interest rates, the impact on profit after tax has been calculated taking into account all underlying exposures and related derivatives. this sensitivity has been selected as this is considered reasonable given the current level of both short-term and long-term interest rates.

the impact on the group’s result of a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would be a increase in profit of $29,446,908 (2008: decrease of $234,000). the impact on Mirvac’s result of a 100 basis point decrease in interest rates would be a decrease in profit of $35,118,143 (2008: decrease of $2,190,000).

the interest rate sensitivities vary on an increase/decrease 100 basis point movement in interest rates due to the interest rate optionality of a small number of derivatives.

iii) Price risk

the group is exposed to equity price risk arising from an equity investment (note 10). the equity investment is held for the purpose of selling in the near term.

as this investment is not listed, the Fund Manager provides a unit price each six months. at reporting date, if the unit price had been 5 per cent higher or lower, the effect on net profit for the year would have been $924,000 (2008: $963,000). this investment represents less than 1 per cent of Mirvac’s net assets and therefore represents minimal risk to the group.

109

MIRVAC GRoUP annual report 2009

notes to the financial statements

Note 36. FINANCIAL RIsK MANAGeMeNt / CoNtINUed

b) Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk that a contracting entity will not complete its obligations under a financial instrument and cause a financial loss. Mirvac has exposures to credit risk on cash and cash equivalents, receivables and derivative financial assets, the maximum exposure to credit risk is based on the total value of the group’s financial assets, net of any provisions for loss, as shown in note 8.

to help manage this risk the group has a policy for establishing credit limits for the entities dealt with which is based on the size or previous trading experience of the entity. Based upon the size or previous trading experience, Mirvac may require collateral, such as bank guarantees in relation to the investment property, leases or deposits taken on residential sales. Mirvac may also be subject to credit risk for transactions which are not included in the balance sheet, such as when Mirvac provides a guarantee for another party. Details of the group’s contingent liabilities are disclosed in note 31.

the credit risk arising from derivatives transactions and cash held in financial institutions exposes the group if the contracting entity is unable to complete its obligations under the contracts. Mirvac’s policy is to spread the amount of net credit exposure among major financial institutions which are rated the equivalent a or above from the major rating agencies.

Mirvac’s net exposure and the credit ratings of its counterparties are continuously monitored and the aggregate value of transactions concluded is spread amongst approved counter parties.

refer to note 8 for the managing of credit risk relating to receivables.

c) Liquidity risk management

liquidity risk is the risk that an entity will encounter difficulty in meeting obligations associated with financial liabilities. prudent liquidity risk management implies maintaining sufficient cash and marketable securities, the availability of funding through an adequate amount of committed credit facilities and the ability to close-out market positions, the ability to raise funds through the issue of new securities through various means including placements and/or Mirvac’s Dividend reinvestment plan. Mirvac prepares and updates regular forecasts of the group’s liquidity requirements to ensure that committed credit lines are kept available in order to take advantage of growth opportunities. surplus funds are generally only invested in highly liquid instruments. the parent entity’s financial liabilities are largely inter-company loan balances with entities within the group as such these balances do not pose any liquidity risk to Mirvac.

Mirvac has minimal liquidity risk due to there being only $422.6 million of current borrowings (which expire between February 2010 and June 2010) and undrawn facilities of $1.1 billion. it is expected that these expiring facilities will be paid out of cash balances held.

d) Capital risk management

Mirvac’s objectives when managing capital are to safeguard the group’s ability to continue as a going concern, so that it can continue to provide returns for securityholders and benefits for other stakeholders, and to maintain an optimal capital structure including maintaining an investment grade credit rating of BBB to reduce the cost of capital having regard to the real estate activities the group invests in.

the capital structure of the group consists of debt and equity. the mix of debt and equity is measured by reference to the group’s gearing ratio not to exceed 30 per cent. at 30 June 2009 the gearing ratio (net debt to total assets less cash) was 19.3 per cent. in order to maintain or adjust the capital structure, the group may adjust the amount of dividends paid to securityholders, return capital to securityholders or issue new shares.

Mirvac prepares quarterly Balance sheet, income statement and Cashflow updates for the current financial year and five year forecasts. these forecasts are used to monitor the group’s capital structure and future capital requirements, taking into account future market conditions.

aFsl ratio and Queensland Building licences ratios have been complied with as at 30 June 2009. Mirvac has complied with borrowing covenant ratios as at 30 June 2009.

our procedures include reading the other information in the annual report to determine whether it contains any material inconsistencies with the financial report.

our audit did not involve an analysis of the prudence of business decisions made by directors or management.

we believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

stAPLING oF seCURItIes

Mirvac was originally formed by the “stapling” of the securities of three listed entities being Mirvac limited, Capital property trust and Mirvac property trust in June 1999, by way of a scheme of arrangement.

in 2001/02 Mirvac was simplified by Mirvac property trust acquiring all the units in the Capital property trust (which by then had been renamed Mirvac Commercial trust), such that the resulting stapled structure consisted of one Mirvac limited share stapled to one Mirvac property trust unit. this stapled structure remains in place today. Further details may be found under history in the investor information section of Mirvac’s website — www.mirvac.com.

seCURItIes exChANGe LIstING

Mirvac’s stapled securities are quoted on the asX, trading under the code: Mgr. the stapled securities cannot be dealt with or traded separately.
