Property acquisition - 134 Lillkar Road, Goulburn, NSW Portfolio Update Acquisition: Modern distribution centre with long term lease providing strong income yield In February 2010, the purchase of a modern distribution centre of 42,826 square metres located in Goulburn, NSW, leased to Coles Group Limited to February 2022 was completed. The purchase price was $64 million (under the sale contract an additional early settlement fee of $1.5 million was also payable). The initial yield from 16 February 2010 for the acquisition is 9.93%. The lease has fixed rental increases of 2.75% per annum. Leasing Update: 98% portfolio occupancy, new leases and lease extension brings WALE to 10.4 years The previous vacancy at 45-55 South Centre Road, Tullamarine, VIC has now been fully leased with Willow Ware Australia (an existing tenant of the Group) leasing 9,576 square metres from December 2009 and 1300Temp Fence leasing the remaining 4,506 square metres from 1 March 2010. This leaves 12,840 square metres, less than 2% of the lettable area of the portfolio, vacant. There is currently an active campaign to lease the office and warehouse space in Preston, Victoria. Growthpoint Properties Australia management have agreed a lease extension with Blue Star Print Group at 81 Derby Street, Silverwater, NSW. Blue Star have agreed to exercise their 5 year option early, with the lease now expiring in September 2017, providing a remaining lease term of 7.5 years. This eliminates a potential lease expiry in September 2012. This leasing activity provides for a weighted average lease expiry (WALE) for the portfolio of approximately 10.4 years as at 31 March 2010. Page 1

2. Investor Update - May 2010 Portfolio Update – Continued Major Tenants – Results announcements The Group’s major tenant Woolworths (61% of portfolio income) reported net profit was up 11.1% to $1.1 billion for the six months to January 3, 2010, on revenue up 4.2% to $27.2 billion. Coles Group (10% of portfolio income) reported a strong 12.8% increase in earnings before interest to $486 million, whilst parent entity Wesfarmers net profit after tax of $879 million, up 1 per cent. The portfolio’s weighted average lease expiry to these two tenants is in excess of 12 years, providing excellent income security for investors. Property Market Update Office - The national office market of 24.0 million square metres had a vacancy rate of approximately 9.1% as at 31 December 2009, up from 6.8% as at 31 December 2008 due to around 1.0 million square metres of additional supply and low levels of net absorption over the year. However, net absorption has been positive for the last 2 quarters as employment in the finance, insurance, rental and real estate sectors has improved which is consistent with an upturn in demand for office accommodation. Leasing incentive levels have stabilised and are trending downwards. Retail - Retail sales have remained strong with the ABS recording an annual 5.9% increase in sales to January 2010. Consumer confidence remains strong and, despite rising interest rates and lower levels of direct government stimulus, sales of non-discretionary items have performed well (i.e. clothing, footwear and personal items). Rental levels in most retail sectors have shown positive rental growth between 0% and 2% in the last year (excluding the bulky goods sector). However, rents appear to be stabilising in this market. Property yields have stabilised, but are above their 2007 peak. Industrial - Demand for industrial space has improved in the December 2009 quarter, with increased tenant and owner-occupier enquiry. Supply of new industrial premises has been constrained over the past two and a half years due to tight credit conditions. A greater level of pre-commitment and, hence, new development activities is predicted for the second half of 2010. Prime property yields, which bottomed at 6.5%, have now stabilised in the range 8% to 9%. At this level, there is increasing investor demand where properties are well leased and enjoy a strong location.
