Dear investor
I am pleased to present the 2010 Annual
Report and to report on the Group’s
performance during the year.
Operating earnings before interest and
tax were $461.3 million for the year.
net profit attributable to security holders
was $31.4 million, up significantly on the
previous year’s net loss of $1.5 billion.
The net profit reflected the recovery in
property valuations during the second
half of the year. In line with guidance
provided to the market, Funds From
Operations (FFO) totalled $350 million or
7.3 cents per security and distributions
for the year were 5.1 cents per security.
In challenging market conditions we
continued to concentrate on delivering
performance through leadership in
office and industrial property ownership,
management and development. In
particular, we focused our activities on:
n
leveraging our fully integrated
management platform, specialist
leasing expertise and strong tenant
relationships to achieve like‑for‑like
income growth, above market
occupancy and high weighted average
lease durations in our Australian office
and industrial portfolios
n
Strengthening our management
platform through:
–
–
the establishment of a new
uS management office and the
appointment of an experienced
industrial property team
restructuring the Group’s executive
management team to maximise
reporting efficiencies and further
align the team structure with our
core operational functions of
Property, Capital/Finance and
Corporate Services
n
Maintaining the Group’s financial
strength and strong balance sheet
through proactive and prudent capital
management initiatives
n
Further enhancing the quality of our
property portfolios through the:
–
–
–
repositioning of our Australian and
uS industrial portfolios through select
acquisitions in key industrial markets
and non‑core property sales
development of our 6 Star Green
Star premium office properties in
Sydney and Brisbane
commencement of a number of
high quality pre‑committed industrial
developments
The Group continued to drive sustainable
performance during the year. We
reduced resource consumption across
our portfolio and drove operational and
environmental efficiencies in our
properties. DEXuS was again named
as one of the world’s most sustainable
corporations in the 2010 “Global 100”
list at the Davos World Economic Forum,
the only A REIT to achieve listing in two
consecutive years.
During the year we achieved listing on
the Dow Jones Sustainability World
Index and maintained our listings on the
Australian SAM Sustainability Index and
the FTSE4Good Index.
Our annual Employee Opinion Survey
reflected improved results across the
board and continued strength in
employee satisfaction and engagement.
It is pleasing to report that DEXuS
out‑performed 18 of the top 19 categories
of the Towers Watson Australian national
norm and in several categories of the
Global High Performing norm. Further
information on our Employee Opinion
Survey results and associated initiatives
is provided on pages 36 to 37 in our
2010 Security Holder Review.
Board membership was unchanged
during the financial year to June 2010.
The Board comprises eight Directors,
seven of whom are independent. Specific
skills and experience the Directors bring
to the Board include strategy, property
investment, funds management, capital
markets, financial and risk management.
During the year we reviewed the
membership of Board Committees and
rotated the chairs of each Committee to
take full advantage of the Board’s
knowledge and expertise.
The Board is committed to the early
adoption of ASX Corporate Governance
Principles and Recommendations. As a
result we have established new policies,
such as a new Diversity Policy and have
reviewed and changed existing policies
where required to meet new and revised
principles and recommendations.
Further information on the Board of
Directors and our corporate governance
policies is provided in this report and at
www.dexus.com
Outlook
looking forward, we expect property
market conditions will continue to recover.
The quality of our portfolio and strong
management focus have positioned
DEXuS well to provide consistent and
secure income. Your Board and
management team will remain focused on
driving performance from our property
portfolios to maximise returns for investors.
We are well positioned to capture the
expected recovery in demand in office,
create further value in our Australian
industrial portfolio through developments
and, over the medium‑term, position
our uS portfolio to benefit from the
expected cyclical upswing in the uS
industrial market.
On behalf of the Board, I would like to
thank you for your support during the
past year. I look forward to leading the
Board again in 2011 and reporting our
activities to you next year.

n
n
Other non‑core sectors (retail and Europe) where operating
income decreased $9.0 million to $30.2 million. The decrease
reflected primarily the sale of Whitford City Shopping Centre in
March 2010 for $256.5 million and a decline in income arising
from the European portfolio which reflected like‑for‑like
income declining by 13.6%
Management company EBIT of $6.1 million was $14.9 million
lower than the prior year as a result of a decrease in activity
based fee income with lower levels of leasing and development
activity across the funds and a decrease in the value of
properties managed by DEXuS on which asset management
fees are calculated
Specific movements in the Statements of Financial Position for
the year ended 30 June 2010 include the:
n
Impact of revaluations during the period and currency impact in
respect of international properties, property sales partially offset
by acquisitions and capital expenditure resulting in a decrease
in total assets of 5.7% to $7.9 billion (2009: $8.4 billion)
n
net tangible assets per security were $0.95 (2009: $1.01),
a decrease of 5.9% primarily as a result of revaluations in
the first half of the year
The full financial accounts start on page 12 in this report.

full year results financial commentary
DEXuS Property Group’s Funds From Operations per security
was 7.3 cents (2009: 10.43 cents) resulting in a distribution
per security of 5.1 cents (2009: 7.3 cents), a decrease of
30.1% primarily as a result of the impact of equity raisings
completed in December 2008 and May 2009 and a reduction
in earnings from management company EBIT, the uS industrial
portfolio and non‑core property sales.
Total assets decreased 5.7% over the period to $7.9 billion at
30 June 2010.
Gearing (net of cash) was 29.8% at 30 June 2010
(2009: 31.2%).
Operating earnings before interest and tax was $461 million
(2009: $515 million), down 10.3% as a result of:
n
n
n
Australian and new Zealand office portfolio income which
decreased by $1.7 million to $245.1 million. The reduction
reflected primarily the sale of a $55 million non‑core property
which was partially offset by a 0.4% increase in like‑for‑like
property income. The increase in underlying income reflected
the positive impact of fixed and market rental increases on
the majority of the portfolio, offset by a 1.9% decrease in
portfolio occupancy
Australian industrial portfolio income increased $0.7 million
to $109.9 million. This reflected a 1.6% increase in like‑for‑like
income and contributions from new properties acquired in the
latter part of the year for a total cost of $70.5 million (excluding
stamp duty). These increases were offset by the sale of
$69 million of properties, located in non‑core sub‑markets
uS industrial portfolio income decreased $33.7 million to
$99.1 million. The decrease was driven by a like‑for‑like
decrease in income of 12%. Tenant delinquency accounted
for about 2% of this drop, and despite occupancy by area
remaining stable at 86%, market conditions dictated lower
rents at renewal and with new leases.
Headline uS earnings were also impacted by:
–
–
Disposal of uS$208 million non‑core properties
Acquisition of three new assets in the Whirlpool program
for uS$203 million
–

DEXuS Funds Management limited (DXFM) is the Responsible Entity
of each of the four Trusts that comprise DEXuS Property Group
(DEXuS, the Group). DXFM is also responsible for the management
of a number of third party funds and mandates.
This corporate governance framework applies to all DXFM funds and
mandates, and is designed to support the strategic objectives of the
Group by defining accountability and creating control systems to
mitigate the risks inherent in its day to day operations.
To achieve this objective, DXFM has implemented a corporate
governance framework that meets the requirements of ASX Corporate
Governance Principles and Recommendations (2nd edition) as
amended 30 June 2010, and addresses additional aspects of
governance that the Board considers appropriate. The Board is also
committed to the early adoption of new and revised principles and
recommendations. A reconciliation of the ASX Principles against
DXFM’s governance framework can be found on the web page
www.dexus.com/Corporate‑Governance
The Board
Roles and responsibilities
As DEXuS comprises four real estate investment trusts, its corporate
governance practices satisfy the requirements relevant to unit trusts.
The Board has determined that its governance framework will also
satisfy the highest standards of a publicly listed company. These
additional governance aspects include the conduct of an annual
general meeting, the appointment of Directors by DEXuS security
holders and additional disclosure, such as the remuneration report.
The governance framework enables the Board to provide strategic
guidance, while exercising effective oversight of management. The
framework also defines the roles and responsibilities of the Board and
executive management in order to clearly communicate accountability
and ensure a balance of authority.
The Board is responsible for reviewing and approving DEXuS’s
business objectives and ensuring strategies for their achievements are
in place and monitored. Objectives are reviewed periodically to ensure
that they remain consistent with the Group’s priorities and the changing
nature of its business. These objectives become the performance
targets for the Chief Executive Officer and Group Management
Committee (previously the Executive Committee). Performance against
these objectives is reviewed annually by the Board nomination and
Remuneration Committee and is taken into consideration during the
remuneration review of Group Management Committee members.
The Board carries ultimate responsibility for the approval and
monitoring of annual business plans, the approval of acquisitions,
divestments and major developments. The Board also ensures that the
fiduciary and statutory obligations DEXuS owes to its security holders,
third party clients and investors are met.
The Board is directly responsible for appointing and removing the
Chief Executive Officer (CEO), and Company Secretary, ratifying the
appointment of the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) and monitoring the
performance of the Group Management Committee. The Board meets
regularly throughout the year and, when required, Directors also meet
to consider specific business. At each regular Board meeting the
Independent Directors meet without the CEO. Each year the Directors
also meet with senior management to specifically consider strategy.
In addition to these responsibilities, DXFM is committed to maintaining,
through both the Group Management Committee and the Board, a
balance of skills, experience and independence appropriate to the
nature and extent of its operations.
composition
The composition of the Board reflects its role and the duties and
responsibilities it discharges. It reflects the need for the Board to work
together as a team with each Director making his or her own
contribution to the Board’s decision making process.
General qualifications for Board membership include the ability and
competence to make appropriate business recommendations and
decisions, an entrepreneurial talent for contributing to the creation of
investor value, relevant experience in the industry sector, high ethical
standards, exposure to emerging issues, sound practical sense and a
total commitment to the fiduciary and statutory obligations to further
the interests of all investors and achieve the Group’s objectives.
At 30 June 2010, the Board comprises eight members, seven of whom
are independent and the eighth member is the DEXuS CEO. All eight
Directors held office for the full financial year.
Specific skills the incumbent Directors bring to the Board include
strategy, property investment, funds management, capital markets,
financial and risk management. Independent Directors are independent
of management and free of any business or other relationship that
could materially interfere with the exercise of his or her unfettered and
independent judgement. Independent Directors have expertise in areas
which enable them to relate to the strategies of DEXuS and to make a
meaningful contribution to the Board’s deliberations.
The Board regularly assesses the independence of its Directors, in light
of interests disclosed to it. Directors of the Responsible Entity are not
technically subject to the approval of security holders. However, the
Board has determined that all Directors other than the CEO, will stand
for election by DEXuS stapled security holders. If a nominated Director
fails to receive a majority vote that Director will not be appointed to the
Board of DXFM. DXFM Directors, other than the CEO, will hold office
for three years, following his or her first appointment (or, if appointed
by the Board between DEXuS Property Group Annual General
Meetings, from the date of the Annual General Meeting immediately
succeeding the initial appointment). It is not generally expected that an
Independent Director would hold office for more than ten years, or be
nominated for more than three consecutive terms,
whichever is the longer.

DEXUS PRoPERTy GRoUP 2010 AnnuAl REPORT
The Chair is an Independent Director, and is responsible for the
leadership of the Board, for the efficient organisation and conduct of
the Board’s functions, and for the briefing of Directors in relation to
issues arising relevant to the Board. The Board has clearly defined the
responsibilities and performance of the CEO. The performance of the
CEO is monitored by the Chair.
Biographies outlining the skills and experience of each Director are
set out on page 4 to 5 of this report. Please refer to www.dexus.com/
Corporate‑Governance for a description of the procedure followed to
select and appoint new Directors to the Board, which includes specific
criteria applied to determine Director independence.
Performance
To ensure that each new Director is able to meet his or her
responsibilities effectively, newly appointed Directors receive an
information pack and induction briefing, which addresses the corporate
governance framework, committee structures and their terms of
reference, governing documents and background reports. new
Directors also attend briefings by DEXuS management on business
strategy and operations. In addition, Directors undertake training,
through regular presentations by management and external advisers on
sector, fund and industry specific trends and conditions throughout the
year. Directors are also encouraged to:
n
take independent professional advice, at the Group’s expense and
independent of management;
n
seek additional information from management; and
n
directly access the Company Secretary, General Counsel, Head of
Risk and Governance and other DEXuS Executives as required.
The Board nomination and Remuneration Committee oversees the
Board performance evaluation program which extends over a two year
period. Board and Committee performance is evaluated one year, and
individual Director performance is evaluated the following year.
The process is designed to identify opportunities for performance
improvement. In 2009 individual Director performance was evaluated.
Evaluations are undertaken using questionnaires and face‑to‑face
interviews on a broad range of issues.
governance
The Board has established a number of committees to assist it in the
fulfilment of its responsibilities. Committee Chairs were rotated in
August 2009. The Board and Board Committee Terms of Reference are
reviewed at least annually, and copies can be found on the web page
www.dexus.com/Corporate‑Governance
Board nomination and Remuneration Committee
A Board nomination and Remuneration Committee oversees all aspects
of Director and Executive remuneration, Board renewal, Director, CEO
and management succession planning, Board and Committee
performance evaluation and Director nominations. It comprises three
Independent Directors:
n
John C Conde AO, Chair, Independent Director
n
Christopher T Beare, Independent Director
n
Stewart F Ewen OAM, Independent Director
Reporting to the Board nomination and Remuneration Committee and
the Group Management Committee, the Compensation Committee
oversees the development and implementation of human resource
management systems and provides advice to the Board nomination
and Remuneration Committee. The Board nomination and
Remuneration Committee also has the power to engage external
consultants independently of management.
Remuneration and incentive payments for employees are considered
by the Compensation Committee following guidance from the Board
nomination and Remuneration Committee. Recommendations to the
Board nomination and Remuneration Committee are based on the
achievement of approved performance objectives and comparable
market data. Details of the Group’s remuneration framework for
Executives, Independent Directors and employees are set out in the
Remuneration Report that forms part of the Directors’ Report contained
in this Annual Report starting on page 12. In 2009/10 there were no
base salary increases for DEXuS senior management and no fee
increases for Directors. There are no schemes for retirement benefits
(other than superannuation) for Independent Directors.
Board audit Committee
To ensure the factual presentation of each Trust’s financial position,
DXFM has put in place a structure of review and authorisation. This
structure includes the establishment of a Board Audit Committee to:
n
review the Financial Statements of each entity and review the
independence and competence of the external auditor; and
n
review semi‑annual management representations to the Board Audit
Committee, affirming the veracity of each entity’s Financial Statements.
The Board Audit Committee’s Terms of Reference require that all
members have specific financial expertise and have an understanding
of the industry in which the Group operates.
The Board Audit Committee operates under formal Terms of Reference,
has access to management, and internal and external auditors without
management present, and has the right and opportunity to seek
explanations and additional information as it sees fit. Board Audit
Committee members have unrestricted access to external auditors.

Board audit Committee (continued)
The external auditor is invited to attend all Board Audit Committee
meetings. The Committee may also obtain independent professional
advice in the satisfaction of its duties at the cost of the Group and
independent of management. The Committee meets as frequently
as required to undertake its role effectively and meets not less than
four times a year.
The members of the Board Audit Committee are:
n
Barry R Brownjohn, Chair, Independent Director
n
Elizabeth A Alexander AM, Independent Director
n
Peter B St George, Independent Director
In order to ensure the independence of the external auditor, the Board
Audit Committee has responsibility for approving the engagement of the
auditor for any non‑audit service of greater than $100,000.
Both the CFO and the CEO, on a semi annual basis, make
representations to the Board Audit Committee regarding the veracity of
the Financial Statements and the financial risk management systems.
The CEO makes a representation in relation to risk management at
least quarterly to the Head of Risk and Governance, regarding
conformance with compliance policies and procedures. Any significant
exceptions are reported by Risk and Governance to the Board
Compliance Committee. Furthermore, on a quarterly basis, the CFO
provides certification to the Board Compliance Committee as to the
continued adequacy of financial risk management systems.
As at June 2009, fees paid to the external auditor for non‑audit
services were 123% of audit fees. In 2010, non‑audit service fees
reduced to 44% of audit fees and in 2011 non‑audit fees are projected
to reduce further.
Board Compliance Committee
The Corporations Act 2001 does not require DXFM to maintain a
Compliance Committee while more than half its Directors are external
Directors. However, the Board of DXFM has determined that the Board
Compliance Committee provides additional control, oversight and
independence of the compliance function and therefore will be continued.
The Board Compliance Committee reviews compliance matters and
monitors DXFM conformance with the requirements of its Australian
Financial Services licence and of the Corporations Act 2001 as it
relates to Managed Investment Schemes.
The Committee includes only members who are familiar with the
requirements of Managed Investments Schemes and have extensive
risk and compliance experience. The Committee is also encouraged to
obtain independent professional advice in the satisfaction of its duties
at the cost of the Group and independent of management.

DEXUS PRoPERTy GRoUP 2010 AnnuAl REPORT
As at 30 June 2010, the Committee comprised five members,
three of whom are external members (i.e. members who satisfy the
requirements of Section 601JB(2) of the Corporations Act 2001), and
two of whom are Executives of the Group.
The scope of the Committee includes all Trusts, including the Group’s
investment mandates. The Committee reports to the Board of the
Responsible Entity, breaches of the Corporations Act 2001 or breaches
of the provisions contained in any Trust’s Constitution or Compliance
Plan, and further reports to ASIC in accordance with legislative
requirements. DEXuS employees also have access to Board
Compliance Committee members to raise any concerns regarding
unethical business practices.
The members of the Board Compliance Committee are:
n
Brian E Scullin (Chair), external member
n
John C Conde AO, external member
n
Andrew P Esteban, external member
n
Tanya l Cox, executive member
n
John C Easy, executive member
The skills, experience and qualifications of Mr Scullin, Mr Conde AO,
Ms Cox and Mr Easy are contained in this Annual Report.

He is an Associate of the Australian Society of CPAs and a member
of the Australian Institute of Company Directors. Andrew has over
30 years experience in the financial services industry, 21 years of
which were with Perpetual Trustees. In December 1999 he established
FP Esteban and Associates, which specialises in implementing and
monitoring risk management and compliance frameworks in the financial
services industry. Andrew has provided compliance consulting services
to organisations including uBS Global Asset Management in Australia,
Hong Kong, Singapore, Taiwan and China. Andrew is Chair of Certitude

Committees of Australian unity Funds Management ltd, MAp Airports
ltd, and Schroder Investment Management Australia ltd; and an
Independent Member of the Alliance Burnstein Compliance Committee,
and a Responsible Manager of longreach Global Capital Pty ltd.
To enable the Board Compliance Committee to effectively fulfil its
obligations, an Internal Compliance Committee has been established
to monitor the effectiveness of the Group’s internal compliance and
control systems.
Board Risk and Sustainability Committee
To oversee risk management at DEXuS, the Board has established
a Board Risk and Sustainability Committee responsible for reviewing
the Group’s operational risk management, environmental management,
sustainability initiatives, internal audit practices and any incidents of
fraud. The Committee also oversees the effectiveness of the Group’s
Risk Management Framework.
The Board Risk and Sustainability Committee and Board Audit
Committee share common membership to ensure that a comprehensive
understanding of control systems is maintained by both committees.
The members of the Board Risk and Sustainability Committee are:
n
Barry R Brownjohn, Chair, Independent Director
n
Elizabeth A Alexander AM, Independent Director
n
Peter B St George, Independent Director
The management of risk is an important aspect of the Group’s
activities. Consequently the Group has created a segregated risk
function reporting to the Chief Operating Officer on a day to day basis,
as well as an Internal Compliance Committee, and an Internal Risk
Committee, all of whom have independent reporting lines to
corresponding Board Committees.
The Risk and Governance team’s responsibility is to promote an
effective risk and compliance culture including the provision of advice,
the drafting and updating of relevant risk and compliance policies and
procedures, conducting training, monitoring and reporting adherence to
key policies and procedures. Frameworks have been developed and
implemented in accordance with Australian Standards AS 31000:2009
(Risk Management) and AS 3806:2006 (Compliance Programs).
The Group has in place a range of policies supporting the risk and
compliance framework including:
n
Anti‑money laundering and Counter Terrorism Financing
n
Workplace Safety – Occupational Health, Safety and liability
n
Environmental Management
n
Fraud Control and Awareness
Further information is available at www.dexus.com/Corporate‑Governance
While Internal Audit is resourced internally, DEXuS has adopted a
co‑sourcing arrangement. The appointment of an external firm as
co‑source service provider has the advantage of ensuring DXFM is
informed of broader industry trends and experience.
The internal audit program has a three year cycle. The results of
all audits are reported to the Internal Audit Committee and the
Board Risk and Sustainability Committee on a quarterly basis, and
the internal audit function has a dual reporting line to the Internal
Audit Committee and the Board Risk and Sustainability Committee.
The Board Risk and Sustainability Committee is empowered to engage
consultants, advisers or other experts independently of management.
Board Finance Committee
The Group experiences significant financial risk, including interest rate
and foreign exchange exposures. To assist in the effective management
of these exposures, the Board has established a committee to
specifically manage these financial risks. The Board Finance
Committee’s role is to review and recommend for approval to the
Board, financial risk management policies, hedging and funding
strategies, to review forward looking financial management processes
and recommend periodic market guidance.
Supporting this Committee, management has established a Capital
Markets Committee.
Members of the Board Finance Committee are:
n
Peter B St George, Chair, Independent Director
n
Barry R Brownjohn, Independent Director
n
Christopher T Beare, Independent Director
management
The day to day management of each of the Trusts rests in the hands of the

Ethical behaviour
Code of Conduct
To ensure the satisfaction of statutory and fiduciary obligations to each
of its investor groups and to maintain confidence in its integrity, the
Board has implemented a series of clearly articulated compliance
policies and procedures to which it requires that all employees adhere.
In addition, the Board considers it important that its employees meet
the highest ethical and professional standards and consequently has
established both an Employee Code of Conduct, for all employees, and
a Directors’ Code of Conduct. Codes of Conduct are approved by the
Board Compliance Committee. Please refer to www.dexus.com/
Corporate‑Governance for a copy of the Group’s Codes of Conduct.
Management has adopted a policy of not contributing donations to any
political party.
The Group is committed to and strongly supports disclosure being
made of corrupt conduct, illegality or substantial waste of company
assets. The Group aims to provide protection to employees who make
such disclosures from any detrimental action or reprisal. Please refer to
www.dexus.com/Corporate‑Governance for a copy of the Good Faith
Reporting Policy.
Diversity
DEXuS comprises a socially and culturally diverse workplace which
helps create a culture that is tolerant, flexible and adaptive to the
changing needs of our environment.
DEXuS believes that Boards should be small enough to be able to act
decisively, but large enough that a diverse range of views is heard on
any issue. DEXuS also believes that Boards need to have continuity
and experience with DEXuS, as well as bringing fresh perspectives,
and the DEXuS Board continually reviews these two factors.
DEXuS is committed to diversity and promotes an environment
conducive to the merit‑based appointment of qualified employees,
senior management and directors. Where professional intermediaries
are used to identify or assess candidates, they are made aware of the
Group’s commitment to diversity.
DEXuS currently publishes annual statistics on the diversity profile of
its Board and senior management, including a breakdown of the type
and seniority of roles undertaken by women.
Insider trading and trading in DEXUS securities
The Board has determined that Directors will not trade in any security
managed by the Group, and the Senior Executive team has similarly
determined that they will not trade in any security managed by the
Group. This decision has been made because the Board of DXFM has
responsibility for the performance of DEXuS as well as the third party
business. Directors are obliged to act in the best interests of each
group of investors independently of each other. Therefore, to minimise
the appearance of conflict that may arise, the Board has determined
that it will not invest in any fund managed by the Group, including
DEXuS. This position is periodically reviewed by the Board.
The Group has implemented a trading policy that applies to employees
who wish to invest in any of the Group’s financial products for his or
her personal account or on behalf of an associate. The policy requires
any employee who wishes to trade in any security issued or managed
by DXFM to obtain written approval before entering into a trade.
Generally, approval will not be granted during defined blackout periods.
These periods commence at the end of the financial half‑year and
full‑year reporting periods and end on the day DEXuS Group results
are released. In addition, if Risk and Governance or the Chief Executive
Officer considers that there is the potential that inside information may
be held or that a significant conflict of interest may arise, additional
blackout periods will be imposed.
With regard to aligning Senior Executives’ interests with the interests
of DEXuS’s investors, the Board has put in place a deferred
performance scheme that it considers ensures an alignment of Senior
Executives’ interests with all investors. A description of the Senior
Executives’ payment scheme is contained in the Remuneration Report
starting on page 14 of this report.
All employees are required to provide a quarterly declaration confirming
his or her understanding and compliance with the Employee Trading
Policy. Risk and Governance undertakes regular monitoring of the
security registers. Please refer to www.dexus.com/Corporate‑Governance
for a copy of the Trading Policy – Directors and Employees.
Conflicts of interest and related party dealings
The Group has implemented policies covering the management of
conflicts of interest which include:
(a) Personal conflicts
These may arise where the interests of clients are in conflict with the
interests of employees, or where the interests of DEXuS is in conflict
with the interests of its employees. The policies which deal with
personal conflicts are the:
n
Code of Conduct;
n
Inside Information and Employee Trading Compliance Policy and
Procedures (“CPP”); and
n
Gifts and Entertainment CPP.
(b) Business conflicts
These may arise in the following ways:
n
conflicts arising from allocating property transactions, where there
may be conflicts between the interests of different DEXuS clients
when allocating a limited investment opportunity between a number
of clients;
n
tenant conflicts, where a prospective tenant has two similar
properties to chose from both owned or managed by DEXuS;
n
n
conflicts arising from related party dealings involving more than one
of DEXuS’s clients, where those clients are on opposite sides of the
transaction; and
conflicts arising from transfer of assets involving the interests of
DEXuS clients when transferring real estate between schemes
and/or accounts which a DEXuS entity manages.

DEXUS PRoPERTy GRoUP 2010 AnnuAl REPORT
The Group has adopted a policy which requires Directors to attend its
AGM. In October 2009 all Directors attended the AGM.
The external auditor of the Trusts also attends each AGM and is
available to answer investor questions about the conduct of the audits
of both the Trusts’ financial records and their Compliance Plans, and
the preparation and content of the Auditor’s Report. In addition to
conducting an AGM, the Group has a communications and investor
relations strategy that promotes an informed market and encourages
participation with its investors.
This strategy includes use of the Group’s website to enable access to
DEXuS announcements, annual and half‑year reports, presentations and
analyst support material. The website also contains significant historical
information on announcements, distributions and other related
information at www.dexus.com/Investor‑Centre/DXS
DEXuS Property Group engages link Market Services to independently
conduct any vote undertaken at the AGM of security holders.
Where a conflict of interest has been identified, Risk and Governance
liaises with the parties concerned to ensure the effective and timely
management of the conflict.
On a monthly basis, the General Counsel reports to the Board on
related party transactions that have been managed in the previous
period. On a quarterly basis, the Head of Risk and Governance reports
related party transactions to the Board Compliance Committee.
n
During the 2009/10 financial year, there was one related party
transaction where DXFM sold a 1.6% interest in the Bent Street Trust
to the DEXuS Wholesale Property Fund to equalise the holdings of
both DEXuS parties.
Continuous disclosure
DXFM has established a Committee to ensure timely and accurate
continuous disclosure for all material matters that impact the Group.
The Committee meets regularly to consider the activities of the Group
and whether any disclosure obligation is likely to arise as a result of
those activities. This Committee has been established to ensure that:
n
all investors continue to have equal and timely access to material
information, including the financial status, performance, ownership
and governance of the Trusts; and
n
all announcements are factual and presented in a clear and
balanced way.
Please refer to www.dexus.com/Corporate‑Governance for a copy
of the Continuous Disclosure and Analyst Briefings Policy.
Training
newly appointed members of the Senior Executive team undertake
induction training soon after commencing employment. Induction
training in relation to the operations of DEXuS takes the form of a half
day, interactive training session presented by the heads of various
business units. The Head of Risk and Governance conducts
a one‑to‑one Compliance Induction session with each newly appointed
Senior Executive outlining DEXuS’s approach to risk management and
compliance. In addition, all new employees attend face‑to‑face
Compliance Induction training facilitated by the Head of Risk and
Governance, which covers key compliance issues.
Annual general meeting
DEXuS respects the rights of security holders and to facilitate the
effective exercise of those rights, the Board has committed to the conduct
of an Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) for DEXuS Property Group.
Each AGM is designed to:
n
supplement effective communication with security holders;
n
provide security holders ready access to balanced and
understandable information about his or her fund;
n
increase the opportunities for security holder participation; and
n
facilitate security holders’ rights to appoint Directors to the Board
of DXFM.

DEXUS PRoPERTy GRoUP 2010 AnnuAl REPORT
3.2 Board oversight of remuneration
The Board nomination and Remuneration Committee (“Committee”) oversees the remuneration of Directors and Executives. The Committee
is responsible for reviewing and recommending Executive remuneration policies and structures to the Board.
The Committee assesses the appropriateness of the structure and quantum of Director and Executive remuneration on an annual basis by
reference to relevant regulatory and market conditions, and individual and company performance. The Committee engages external consultants
to provide independent advice when required.
Further information about the role and responsibility of the Committee is set out in the Corporate Governance Statement which may be found
at www.dexus.com/Corporate‑Governance.aspx
During the reporting period nomination and Remuneration Committee members were Messrs Conde (member until 31 August 2009, Chair
with effect from 1 September 2009), Beare (Chair until 31 August 2009, member with effect from 1 September 2009), Scullin (member until
31 August 2009) and Ewen.
3.3 non-Executive Directors’ remuneration framework
The objectives of the non‑Executive Directors’ remuneration framework are to ensure non‑Executive Directors’ fees reflect the responsibilities
of non‑Executive Directors and are market competitive. non‑Executive Directors’ fees are reviewed annually.
non‑Executive Directors, other than the Chair, receive a base fee plus additional fees for membership of Board Committees. The table below
outlines the fee structure for the reporting period.

Further to the Committee fee structure outlined above, Mr Ewen has been paid an additional fixed fee of $30,000 per annum for assuming
responsibilities involved in attending property inspections, reviewing property investment proposals and participating in informal management meetings.
Recognising the greater responsibility and time commitment required the Board Chair receives a higher fee than other non‑Executive Directors,
which is benchmarked to the market median of comparably sized ASX listed entities. The Chair receives no Board Committee fees, nor is the Chair
present during any discussion relating to the determination of the Chair’s fees.
non‑Executive Directors are not eligible to receive performance based remuneration or accrue separate retirement benefits beyond statutory
superannuation entitlements.
Fees paid to non‑Executive Directors are paid from a remuneration pool of $1,750,000 per annum, which was approved by DEXuS security
holders at its Annual General Meeting held in October 2008. non‑Executive Directors’ fees were last adjusted in July 2007 and non‑Executive
Directors have received no increase in fees since that time. At its meeting on 20 May 2010, following analysis of non‑Executive Director market
remuneration data, the nomination and Remuneration Committee determined that fees paid to its non‑Executive Directors had fallen below the
market median of comparably sized ASX listed entities. Similarly, the Committee determined that fees paid to its Chair had fallen significantly below
this peer group. Following consideration by the full Board, fees paid to DEXuS non‑Executive Directors for the year commencing 1 July 2010 will
increase to $150,000 per annum and fees paid to the Chair will increase to $350,000 per annum. Committee fees will remain unchanged.

Directors’ Report

3. Remuneration Report (continued)
3.4 Approach to Executive remuneration
3.4.1 Executive remuneration principles
The Directors believe that achievement of DEXuS’s strategic plans will
create superior security holder value, through the delivery of consistent
returns, generated with relatively moderate risk. The Directors consider
that an appropriately skilled and qualified Executive team is essential to
achieve this objective. DEXuS’s approach to the principles, structure
and quantum of Executive remuneration is therefore designed to
attract, motivate and retain such an Executive team.
In establishing DEXuS’s remuneration principles, the Directors are
cognisant that DEXuS’s business is based on long‑term property
investments and similarly longer term tenant relationships. Furthermore,
property market investment returns tend to be cyclical, particularly when
coupled with financial structures that act to enhance returns.
(b) Alignment of Executive performance payments with
achievement of the group’s objectives
In 2009, DEXuS introduced a new method for determining key
performance indicators (“KPIs”) and assessing individual performance
known as the Balanced Scorecard performance framework.
The Balanced Scorecard prescribes clearly the performance indicators
that will be measured in order to “balance” the financial perspective.
The Balanced Scorecard is a performance management method that
enables DEXuS to measure the execution of its strategy and reflect this
performance in its incentive payments. It also provides targets and
measurements around internal business processes and external
outcomes in order to achieve strategic performance objectives and
results. The Balanced Scorecard focuses on performance in four areas,
which reflect each Executive’s role, responsibility, accountability and
strategy delivery.
DEXUS Balanced Scorecard – typical objectives
Taking these factors into account, the Executive remuneration structure
is based on the following criteria:
financial performance
n
earnings per security
n
distributions per security
n
third party funds performance
n
total security holder return,
relative to peers
Business development and
business management
n
delivery of strategic projects
on time and on budget
n
corporate responsibility and
sustainability initiatives
n
achievement of international
operations strategies
Stakeholder satisfaction
leadership
n
investor relations
n
tenant satisfaction
n
employee engagement
n
executive succession
n
talent management
n
role modelling DEXuS
cultural values
n
executive development
Objectives are selected based on the key drivers to achieve superior
security holder returns over time and are tailored and weighted
according to the individual Executive’s role. The typical objectives
listed above may therefore not be common to all Executive roles.
The Committee reviews and approves Executive KPIs against Group
objectives at the commencement of each financial year and reviews
achievement against KPIs at the end of each financial year. The
Committee’s review of Executive performance, in conjunction with data
provided from benchmarking total remuneration levels, provides the
Committee with the information necessary to determine the quantum
of Performance Payments to be awarded to Executives.
(a) market competitiveness and reasonableness;
(b) alignment of Executive performance payments with achievement of
the Group’s financial and operational objectives, within its risk
framework and cognisant of its values‑based culture; and
(c) an appropriate target mix of remuneration components, including
performance payments linked to security holder returns over the
longer term.
(a) market competitiveness and reasonableness
For the purposes of determining market competitive remuneration,
DEXuS obtains external Executive remuneration benchmarks and
analyses information from a range of sources, including:
1. publicly available data from the annual reports of constituents of
the S&P/ASX 100 index;
2.
independent remuneration consultants, including Hart Consulting
Group, Financial Institutions Remuneration Group, Hewitt and the
Avdiev Group regarding property organisations of a similar market
capitalisation; and
3. various recruitment and consulting agencies who are informed
sources of market remuneration trends.

achieve its total remuneration positioning target, relative to the market. The Board may exercise its discretion to vary the size of the available pool
by reference to such factors as:
n
three year absolute total security holder return;
n
management costs and revenue of DXH; and
n
performance against budgeted earnings and distributions per security.

The Directors consider that allocating Performance Payments evenly between immediate payments and deferred payments is appropriate for
Executives other than the CEO, whose Performance Payment is weighted to the longer term to reflect relatively greater alignment with long‑term
returns to security holders.
iii. DEXUS Deferred Performance Payment (“DDPP”) plan
The DDPP plan operates as follows:
n
following allocation, Deferred Performance Payments are subject to a three year vesting period from allocation date;
n
the DDPP allocation value is notionally invested during the vesting period in DEXuS securities (50% of DDPP value) and its unlisted funds and
mandates (50% of DDPP value);
n
during the vesting period, DDPP allocation values fluctuate in line with changes in the “Composite Total Return” (simulating the notional
investment exposure), comprising 50% of the total return of DEXuS securities and 50% of the combined asset weighted total return of its
unlisted funds and mandates; and
n
at the conclusion of the three year vesting period, if the Composite Total Return meets or exceeds the Composite Performance Benchmark,
the Board may approve the application of a performance factor to the final DDPP allocation value:
–
–
–
the “Composite Performance Benchmark” is 50% of the S&P/ASX 200 Property Accumulation Index and 50% of the Mercer unlisted
Property Fund Index over the three year vesting period;
for performance up to 100% of the Composite Performance Benchmark, Executives receive a DDPP allocation reflecting the Composite Total
Return of the preceding three year vesting period; and
for performance between 100% and 130% of the Composite Performance Benchmark a performance factor may be applied, ranging from
1.1 to a maximum of 1.5 times.
Provisions regarding the vesting of DDPP in the event of termination of service agreements are outlined in section 3.7.
Equity option scheme
DEXuS does not operate an equity option scheme as part of its Executive remuneration structure. The Committee has considered the introduction
of such a scheme, but has determined that it would not be, at the present time, an appropriate component of DEXuS’s remuneration structure.
Equity and loan schemes
DEXuS does not operate a security participation plan or a loan plan for Executives or Directors.
The deferred element of DEXuS’s Performance Payment is designed to simulate an equity plan, but does not provide Executives with direct
equity exposure.
Hedging policy
DEXuS does not permit Executives to hedge their DDPP allocation.

3.5 Executive remuneration arrangements for the year ended 30 June 2010
This section outlines how the approach to Executive remuneration described above has been implemented in the 2009/10 financial year.
Decisions taken impacting Executive remuneration for the year ended 30 June 2010 only
n
no increase in base salaries in 2009/10 for Executives or employees with the exception of adjustments for a limited number of employees
whose roles and responsibilities markedly increased.
n
no increase in non‑Executive Director fees for 2008/09 and 2009/10.
Decisions taken impacting Executive remuneration for the year ended 30 June 2010 and future years
n
Accelerated DDPP vesting on termination for reasons outside of the Executive’s control was discontinued, but can be applied by exception with
the approval of the nomination and Remuneration Committee.
n
Automatic application of the DDPP performance multiplier was removed, impacting all current unvested awards and all future allocations.
n
Eligibility of DDPP was restricted to Executives and senior management.
n
Balanced Scorecard performance approach was introduced for Executives incorporating four key areas of focus – financial performance,
business development and business management, stakeholder satisfaction and leadership.
n
Remuneration mix guidelines were adopted for all employees to provide greater transparency in the determination of the size of the performance
payment pool.
Decisions taken impacting Executive remuneration for the year ending 30 June 2011 and future years
n
KPI performance weightings were introduced.
n
The effectiveness of existing incentive plans was, and will continue to be reviewed.
At its meeting on 21 July 2010 the nomination and Remuneration Committee determined that the fixed remuneration paid to a number of Executives
had fallen below the market median of comparably sized ASX listed entities. Following consideration by the full Board, the fixed remuneration paid to
specific Executives for the year commencing 1 July 2010 will increase in line with comparable market median positions.

In determining the construction of the Composite Total Return and in particular the relative weighting between the returns of the DEXuS Property
Group and its unlisted funds and mandates, the Board considered the following factors:
n
the desire of DEXuS Property Group to attract and retain third party funds and mandates based on the assurance that incentives are in place
to ensure their equitable treatment;
n
the economic contribution to DEXuS Property Group of management fees arising from third party funds under management;
n
the increased investment in its management team and infrastructure, enabled by third party funds management fees, including in‑house
research, valuations and sustainability teams, the cost of which is defrayed by those fees; and
n
the greater market presence and relevance the third party business brings to the DEXuS Property Group.
The Board also considered whether the construction of the Composite Total Return should reflect the actual value of the unlisted funds and
mandates, and DEXuS Property Group’s own funds under management.
Cognisant of all the above factors, the Board determined that a 50/50 allocation, rather than an allocation varying according to asset weighting,
most fairly reflects the value contribution of third party funds to the DEXuS Property Group and provides the greatest assurance that all investors
are treated equitably.
During the year DEXuS did not buy back or cancel any of its securities.

DEXuS has out‑performed the S&P/ASX 200 Property Accumulation Index on a rolling three year basis each period since inception in October
2004. In addition, the DEXuS Composite Total Return has out‑performed the Composite Performance Benchmark on a rolling three year basis
each period since inception.
While the Directors recognise that improvement is always possible, they consider that DEXuS’s business model, which aims to deliver consistent
returns with relatively moderate risk, has been central to DEXuS’s relative out‑performance, and that its approach to Executive remuneration, with
a focus on consistent out‑performance of objectives, is aligned with and supports the superior execution of DEXuS’s strategic plans.
3.7 Service agreements
The employment arrangements for Executives are set out below.
CEo – Victor P hoog antink
The current employment contract commenced on 1 October 2004. The principal terms of the employment contract are as follows:
n
the CEO is employed under a rolling contract;
n
the CEO may resign from his position and thus terminate this contract by giving six months’ written notice. On resignation any unvested DDPP
will be forfeited subject to the discretion of the Board;
n
the Group may terminate the CEO’s employment agreement by providing six months’ written notice or payment in lieu of the notice period (based
on the fixed component of CEO’s remuneration). Additionally, the Group may provide a performance payment for the period of the last review
date (being 1 July) until the last day of the notice period;
n
in the event that the Group initiates termination for reasons outside the control of the CEO, a severance payment equal to 100% of fixed
remuneration is payable;
n
on termination by the Group, any DDPP awards will vest in accordance with the vesting schedule of the DDPP Plan, subject to the discretion
of the Board; and
n
the Group may terminate the contract of the CEO at any time without notice if serious misconduct has occurred. In the event of termination for
cause, the CEO is only entitled to that portion of remuneration that is fixed, and only up to the date of termination. On termination for cause any
unvested DDPP awards will immediately be forfeited.
20
DEXUS PRoPERTy GRoUP 2010 AnnuAl REPORT
Executives (other than the CEo)
The principal terms of Executive employment contracts are as follows:
n
all Executives have rolling contracts;
n
an Executive may resign from their position and thus terminate their contract by giving three months’ written notice. On resignation any unvested
DDPP will be forfeited subject to the discretion of the Board;
n
the Group may terminate an Executive’s employment agreement by providing three months’ written notice or providing payment in lieu of the
notice period (based on the fixed component of the Executive’s remuneration). In the event that the Group initiates the termination for reasons
outside the control of the Executive, a severance payment equal to a maximum of 75% of fixed remuneration will be made;
n
on termination by the Group, any DDPP awards will vest in accordance with the vesting schedule of the DDPP Plan, subject to the discretion of
the Board; and
n
the Group may terminate the contract at any time without notice if serious misconduct has occurred. Where termination for cause occurs the
Executive is only entitled to that portion of remuneration that is fixed, and only up to the date of termination. On termination for cause any
unvested DDPP awards will immediately be forfeited.
3.8 Remuneration of Key management Personnel
(a) Cash accounting method
In response to the Productivity Commission’s recommendation to improve the transparency of remuneration reports by disclosing actual
remuneration received by Executives, the following table provides details of actual cash and other benefits received by Executives in the years
ending 30 June 2009 and 30 June 2010. This table includes details of the five highest paid Directors or Executives.
The amounts detailed in the cash accounting table vary to the amounts detailed in the statutory accounting table because performance payments
are paid to Executives in the year following the performance period to which they relate. Furthermore, DDPP allocations and movement in prior
year DDPP allocation values detailed in the statutory accounting table do not reflect what will be paid to the Executive when the DDPP vests as the
award will be revalued at that time.

Directors’ Report
for the year ended 30 June 2010
ConTInUED
4. Directors’ interests
The Board’s policy on insider trading and trading in DXS securities, or securities in any of the funds managed by DXS, by any Director or employee
is outlined in the Corporate Governance Statement.
While the trading policy described in the Corporate Governance Statement applies to Directors and Senior Executives, the Board has determined
that Directors will not trade in any security managed by DXS.
Directors have made this decision because the Board of DXFM has responsibility for the Group itself as well as the third party business. Directors
are obliged to act in the best interests of each group of investors independently of each other. Therefore, to minimise the appearance of conflict
that may arise by being a Director of multiple funds, the Directors have determined that they will not invest in any fund managed by the Group
including DXS. This position is periodically reviewed by the Board.
As a direct result of the Group’s policy regarding Directors holding DXS securities, or securities in any of the funds managed by the Group, as at
the date of this Directors’ Report no Director directly or indirectly held:
n
DXS securities; or
n
options over, or any other contractual interest in, DXS securities; or
n
an interest in any other fund managed by DXFM or any other entity that forms part of the Group.
5. Directors’ directorships in other listed entities
The following table sets out directorships of other listed entities, not including DXFM, held by the Directors at any time in the three years
immediately prior to the end of the year, and the period for which each directorship was held:

17. audit
17.1 Auditor
PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC or the Auditor) continues in office in
accordance with section 327 of the Corporations Act 2001.
17.2 non-audit services
The Group may decide to employ the Auditor on assignments in
addition to their statutory audit duties where the Auditor’s expertise
and experience with the Group are important.
Details of the amounts paid or payable to the Auditor, for audit and
non‑audit services provided during the year are set out in note 6 of
the notes to the Financial Statements.
The Board Audit Committee is satisfied that the provision of non‑audit
services provided during the year by the Auditor (or by another person
or firm on the Auditor’s behalf) is compatible with the standard of
independence for auditors imposed by the Corporations Act 2001.
The reasons for the Directors being satisfied are:
n
A Charter of Audit Independence was adopted during the year that
provides guidelines under which the Auditor may be engaged to
provide non‑audit services without impairing the Auditor’s objectivity
or independence.
n
The Charter states that the Auditor will not provide services where
the Auditor may be required to review or audit its own work,
including:
–
–
–
the preparation of tax provisions, accounting records and
financial statements;
the design, implementation and operation of information
technology systems;
the design and implementation of internal accounting and risk
management controls;
–
conducting valuation, actuarial or legal services;
–
consultancy services that include direct involvement in
management decision making functions;
–
investment banking, borrowing, dealing or advisory services;
–
acting as trustee, executor or administrator of trust or estate;
–
prospectus independent expert reports and being a member of
the due diligence committee; and
–
providing internal audit services.
n
The Board Audit Committee regularly reviews the performance and
independence of the Auditor and whether the independence of this
function has been maintained having regard to the provision of
non‑audit services. The Auditor has provided a written declaration
to the Board regarding its independence at each reporting period
and Board Audit Committee approval is required before the
engagement of the Auditor to perform any non‑audit service for
a fee in excess of $100,000.
The above Directors’ statements are in accordance with the advice
received from the Board Audit Committee.
17.3 Auditor’s independence Declaration
A copy of the Auditor’s Independence Declaration as required under
section 307C of the Corporations Act 2001 is set out in the Financial
Statements and forms part of this Directors’ Report.

standards and give a true and fair view.

DEXUS PRoPERTy GRoUP 2010 AnnuAl REPORT
note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies
(a) Basis of preparation
In accordance with AASB Interpretation 1002 Post-Date-of-Transition
Stapling Arrangements, the entities within DXS must be consolidated.
The parent entity and deemed acquirer of DIT, DOT and DXO is DDF.
The DDF consolidated column represents the consolidated result of
DDF, which comprises DDF and its controlled entities, DIT and its
controlled entities, DOT and its controlled entities, and DXO and its
controlled entities. Equity attributable to other trusts stapled to DDF
is a form of non‑controlling interest in accordance with AASB 1002
and, in the DDF consolidated column, represents the equity of DIT,
DOT and DXO. Other non‑controlling interests represent the equity
attributable to parties external to the Group.
DEXuS Property Group stapled securities are quoted on the Australian
Stock Exchange under the “DXS” code and comprise one unit in each
of DDF, DIT, DOT and DXO. Each entity forming part of DXS continues
as a separate legal entity in its own right under the Corporations Act
2001 and is therefore required to comply with the reporting and
disclosure requirements under the Corporations Act 2001 and
Australian Accounting Standards.
DEXuS Funds Management limited (DXFM) as Responsible Entity for
each of the entities within DXS may only unstaple the Group if approval
is obtained by a special resolution of the stapled security holders.
These general purpose Financial Statements for the year ended
30 June 2010 have been prepared in accordance with the
requirements of the Constitution of the entities within DXS, the
Corporations Act 2001, Australian Accounting Standards and other
authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards
Board and interpretations. Compliance with Australian Accounting
Standards ensures that the consolidated and parent Financial
Statements and notes also comply with International Financial
Reporting Standards (IFRS).
These Financial Statements are prepared on a going concern basis and
in accordance with historical cost conventions and have not been
adjusted to take account of either changes in the general purchasing
power of the dollar or changes in the values of specific assets, except
for the valuation of certain non‑current assets and financial instruments
(refer notes 1(e), 1(o), 1(q), 1(w) and 1(x)).
As at 30 June 2010, DXS had a current net asset deficiency of
$324.8 million. These Financial Statements are prepared on a going
concern basis as DXS has sufficient working capital and cash flow due
to the existence of unutilised facilities of $1,115.1 million as set out in
note 23.
The Group has applied the revised AASB 101 Presentation of
Financial Statements which became effective on 1 January 2009.
The revised standard requires the separate presentation of
Statements of Comprehensive Income and Statements of Changes
in Equity. All non‑owner changes in equity must now be presented
in the Statements of Comprehensive Income. As a consequence,
the Group has changed the presentation of its Financial Statements.
Comparative information has been re‑presented so that it is also in
conformity with the revised standard.
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the
previous financial year and corresponding interim reporting period,
unless otherwise stated.
FInanCIal STaTEmEnTS
notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2010
Critical accounting estimates
The preparation of Financial Statements requires the use of certain
critical accounting estimates and management to exercise its
judgement in the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies.
Other than the estimations described in notes 1(e), 1(o), 1(q), 1(w),
and 1(x), no key assumptions concerning the future or other estimation
of uncertainty at the end of each reporting period have a significant
risk of causing material adjustments to the Financial Statements in the
next annual reporting period.
Uncertainty around property valuations
The fair value of our investment properties in the united States and
Europe has been adjusted to reflect market conditions at the end of the
reporting period. While this represents the best estimates of fair value as
at the end of the reporting period, the current uncertainty in these
markets means that if investment property is sold in the future, the price
achieved may be higher or lower than the most recent valuation, or
higher or lower than the fair value recorded in the Financial Statements.
(b) Principles of consolidation
(i) Controlled entities
The Financial Statements have been prepared on a consolidated basis
in recognition of the fact that while the securities issued by the Group
are stapled into one trading security and cannot be traded separately,
the Financial Statements must be presented on a consolidated basis.
The parent entity and deemed acquirer of the Group is DDF. The
accounting policies of the subsidiary trusts are consistent with those
of the parent.
Subsidiaries are all entities (including special purpose entities) over
which the Group 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 the Group controls another entity.
The Financial Statements incorporate an elimination of inter‑entity
transactions and balances to present the Financial Statements on a
consolidated basis. net profit and equity in controlled entities, which is
attributable to the unitholdings of non‑controlling interests, are shown
separately in the Statements of Comprehensive Income and Statements
of Financial Position respectively. Where control of an entity is obtained
during a financial year, its results are included in the Statements of
Comprehensive Income from the date on which control is gained. The
Financial Statements incorporate all the assets, liabilities and results of
the parent and its controlled entities.
(ii) Partnerships and joint ventures
Where assets are held in a partnership or joint venture with another
entity directly, the Group’s share of the results and assets of this
partnership or joint venture are consolidated into the Statements of
Comprehensive Income and Statements of Financial Position of the
Group. Where assets are jointly controlled via ownership of units in
single purpose unlisted unit trusts or shares in companies, the Group
applies equity accounting to record the operations of these investments
(refer note 1(t)).

notes to the Financial Statements
for the year ended 30 June 2010
ConTInUED
note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies
(continued)
(e) Derivatives and other financial instruments
(i) Derivatives
(c) Revenue recognition
(i) Rent
Rental revenue is brought to account on a straight‑line basis over
the lease term for leases with fixed rent review clauses. In all other
circumstances rental revenue is brought to account on an accruals
basis. If not received at the end of the reporting period, rental revenue
is reflected in the Statements of Financial Position as a receivable.
Recoverability of receivables is reviewed on an ongoing basis. Debts
which are known to be not collectable are written off.
(ii) management fee revenue
Management fees are brought to account on an accruals basis, and
if not received at the end of the reporting period, are reflected in the
Statements of Financial Position as a receivable.
(iii) Interest revenue
Interest revenue is brought to account on an accruals basis using the
effective interest rate method and, if not received at the end of the
reporting period, is reflected in the Statements of Financial Position
as a receivable.
(iv) Dividends and distribution revenue
Revenue from dividends and distributions are recognised when
declared. Amounts not received at the end of the reporting period
are included as a receivable in the Statements of Financial Position.
(d) Expenses
Expenses are brought to account on an accruals basis and, if not paid
at the end of the reporting period, are reflected in the Statements of
Financial Position as a payable.
(i) Property expenses
Property expenses include rates, taxes and other property outgoings
incurred in relation to investment properties and property, plant and
equipment where such expenses are the responsibility of the Group.
(ii) Borrowing costs
Borrowing costs include interest, amortisation of discounts or premiums
relating to borrowings, amortisation or ancillary costs incurred in
connection with arrangement of borrowings and foreign exchange
losses net of hedged amounts on borrowings, including trade creditors
and lease finance charges. Borrowing costs are expensed as incurred
unless they relate to qualifying assets.
Qualifying assets are assets which take more than twelve months to get
ready for their intended use or sale. In these circumstances, borrowing
costs are capitalised to the cost of the asset during the period of time
that is required to complete and prepare the asset for its intended use
or sale. Where funds are borrowed generally, borrowing costs are
capitalised using a weighted average capitalisation rate.
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks including
foreign exchange risk and interest rate risk. Accordingly, the Group
enters into various derivative financial instruments such as interest
rate swaps, cross currency swaps and foreign exchange contracts to
manage its exposure to certain risks. Written policies and limits are
approved by the Board of Directors of the Responsible Entity, in
relation to the use of financial instruments to manage financial risks.
The Responsible Entity continually reviews the Group’s exposures and
updates its treasury policies and procedures. The Group does not trade
in derivative instruments for speculative purposes. Even though
derivative financial instruments are entered into for the purpose of
providing the Group with an economic hedge, the Group has elected
not to apply hedge accounting under AASB 139 Financial Instruments:
Recognition and Measurement for interest rate swaps and foreign
exchange contracts. Accordingly, derivatives including interest rate
swaps, interest rate component of cross currency swaps and foreign
exchange contracts, are measured at fair value with any changes in
fair value recognised in the Statements of Comprehensive Income.
(ii) Debt and equity instruments issued by the Group
Financial instruments issued by the Group are classified as either
liabilities or as equity in accordance with the substance of the
contractual arrangements. Accordingly, ordinary units issued by DDF,
DIT, DOT and DXO are classified as equity.
Interest and distributions are classified as expenses or as distributions
of profit consistent with the Statements of Financial Position
classification of the related debt or equity instruments.
Transaction costs arising on the issue of equity instruments are
recognised directly in equity (net of tax) as a reduction of the proceeds
of the equity instruments to which the costs relate. Transaction costs
are the costs that are incurred directly in connection with the issue of
those equity instruments and which would not have been incurred had
those instruments not been issued.
(iii) Financial guarantee contracts
Financial guarantee contracts are recognised as a financial liability at
the time the guarantee is issued. The liability is initially measured at fair
value and subsequently at the higher of the amount determined in
accordance with AASB 137 Provisions, Contingent Liabilities and
Contingent Assets and the amount initially recognised less cumulative
amortisation, where appropriate.
The fair value of financial guarantees is determined as the present
value of the difference in the net cash flows between the contractual
payments under the debt instrument and the payments that would be
required without the guarantee, or the estimated amount that would be
payable to a third party for assuming the obligations. Where guarantees
in relation to loans or other payables of subsidiaries or associates are
provided for no compensation, the fair values are accounted for as
contributions and recognised as part of the cost of the investment.
(iv) other financial assets
loans and other receivables are measured at amortised cost using the
effective interest rate method less impairment.

DEXUS PRoPERTy GRoUP 2010 AnnuAl REPORT
(f) goods and services tax/value added tax
Revenues, expenses and capital assets are recognised net of any
amount of Australian/new Zealand/Canadian Goods and Services Tax
(GST) or French and German Value Added Tax (VAT), except where the
amount of GST/VAT incurred is not recoverable. In these circumstances
the GST/VAT is recognised as part of the cost of acquisition of the asset
or as part of the expense.
Cash flows are included in the Statements of Cash Flows on a gross
basis. The GST component of cash flows arising from investing and
financing activities which is recoverable from or payable to the Australian
Taxation Office is classified as cash flows from operating activities.
(g) Taxation
under current Australian income tax legislation DDF, DIT and DOT,
are not liable for income tax provided they satisfy certain legislative
requirements. The Group may be liable for income tax in jurisdictions
where foreign property is held (i.e. united States, France, Germany,
Canada and new Zealand).
DXO tax consolidated group is subject to Australian income tax which
is accounted for as follows:
n
n
n
n
the income tax expense for the year is the tax payable on the current
year’s taxable income based on a tax rate of 30% adjusted by
changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities attributable to
temporary differences and to unused tax losses;
deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognised for temporary
differences arising from differences between the carrying amount of
assets and liabilities and the corresponding tax base of those items.
The relevant tax rates are applied to the cumulative amounts of
deductible and taxable temporary differences to measure the
deferred tax assets or liabilities. An exception is made for certain
temporary differences arising from the initial recognition of an asset
or a liability (where they do not arise as a result of a business
combination and did not affect either accounting profit/loss or
taxable profit/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 assets and liabilities 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; and
n
current and deferred tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the
extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive
income or directly in equity. In this case, the tax is also recognised
in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively.
Withholding tax payable on distributions received by the Group from
DEXuS Industrial Properties Inc (uS REIT) and DEXuS uS Properties
Inc (uS W REIT) are recognised as an expense when tax is withheld.
In addition, a deferred tax liability or asset and related deferred tax
expense/benefit is recognised on differences between the tax cost
base of uS assets and liabilities in the Group (held by uS REIT and
uS W REIT) and their accounting carrying values at end of the
reporting period. Any deferred tax liability or asset is calculated
using a blend of the current withholding tax rate applicable to
income distributions and the applicable uS federal and state taxes.
under current Australian income tax legislation, the security holders will
generally be entitled to receive a foreign tax credit for uS withholding
tax deducted from distributions paid by the uS REIT and uS W REIT.
DIT France logistique SAS (DIT France), a wholly owned sub‑trust of
DIT, is liable for French corporation tax on its taxable income at the rate
of 33.33%. In addition, a deferred tax liability or asset and its related
deferred tax expense/benefit is recognised on differences between the
tax cost base of the French real estate assets and their accounting
carrying value at end of the reporting period.
DEXuS GlOG Trust, a wholly owned Australian sub‑trust of DIT, is
liable for German income tax on its German taxable income at the rate
of 15.82%. In addition, a deferred tax liability or asset and its related
deferred tax expense/benefit is recognised on differences between the
tax cost base of the German real estate assets and their accounting
carrying value at end of the reporting period.
DOT nZ Sub‑Trust no. 1, a wholly owned Australian sub‑trust of DOT,
is liable for new Zealand corporate tax on its new Zealand taxable
income at the rate of 30%. In addition, a deferred tax liability or
asset and its related deferred tax expense/benefit is recognised on
differences between the tax cost base of the new Zealand real estate
asset and the accounting carrying value at end of the reporting period.
DEXuS Canada Trust, a wholly owned Australian sub‑trust of DIT, is
liable for Canadian income tax on its Canadian taxable income at the
rate of 25%. In addition, a deferred tax liability or asset and its related
deferred tax expense/benefit is recognised on differences between the
tax cost base of the Canadian real estate asset and the accounting
carrying value at end of the reporting period.
Tax consolidation
In December 2009 the DXH tax consolidated group elected to
deconsolidate and DXO elected to form a tax consolidated group
comprising 20 Barrack Street Trust, DEXuS Holdings Pty limited,
DEXuS Funds Management limited, DEXuS Property Services Pty
limited, DEXuS Financial Services Pty limited and DEXuS Wholesale
Property limited, DEXuS CMBS Issuer Pty limited and DWPl
nominees Pty limited. The implementation date for the DXO tax
consolidated group is 1 July 2008.
The entities in the DXO tax consolidated group entered into a Tax
Sharing Deed effective 1 July 2008. In the opinion of the Directors,
this limits the joint and several liability of the wholly‑owned entities
in the case of a default by the head entity, DXO.
DXO and the controlled entities in the tax consolidated group continue
to account for their own current and deferred tax amounts. These
notional tax amounts are measured as if each entity in the tax
consolidated group continues to be a stand alone taxpayer in its
own right pursuant to the Tax Funding Deed effective 1 July 2008.
under the Tax Funding Deed, the wholly owned entities fully
compensate DXO for any current tax payable assumed and are
compensated by DXO for any current tax receivable. The funding
amounts are determined by reference to the amounts recognised in
the wholly owned entities’ Financial Statements and are recognised
as current inter‑company receivables or payables.

note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies
(continued)
(h) Distributions
In accordance with the Trust’s Constitution, the Group distributes
its distributable income to unitholders by cash or reinvestment.
Distributions are provided for when they are approved by the Board
of Directors and declared.
(i) Repairs and maintenance
Plant is required to be overhauled on a regular basis and is managed
as part of an ongoing major cyclical maintenance program. The costs
of this maintenance are charged as expenses as incurred, except where
they relate to the replacement of a component of an asset, in which
case the replaced component will be derecognised and the
replacement costs capitalised in accordance with note 1(o). Other
routine operating maintenance, repair costs and minor renewals are
also charged as expenses as incurred.
(j) cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call
with financial institutions and 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.
(k) Receivables
Trade receivables are recognised initially at fair value and subsequently
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method,
which is based on the invoiced amount less provision for doubtful
debts. Trade receivables are required to be settled within 30 days and
are assessed on an ongoing basis for impairment. Receivables which
are known to be uncollectible are written off. A provision for doubtful
debts is established when there is objective evidence that the Group
will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original
terms of the receivables.
(l) inventories
land and development property held for resale
land and development properties held for resale are stated at the
lower of cost and the net realisable value. Cost is assigned by specific
identification and includes the cost of acquisition, and development
and holding costs such as borrowing costs, rates and taxes. Holding
costs incurred after completion of development are expensed.
net realisable value
net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course
of business. Marketing and selling expenses are estimated and
deducted to establish net realisable value.
(m) non-current assets (or disposal groups) held for sale
and discontinued operations
non‑current assets (or disposal groups) are classified as held for sale
if their carrying amount will be recovered principally through a sale
transaction rather than through continuing use. They are measured
at the lower of their carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell,
except for assets such as deferred tax assets, assets arising from
employee benefits, financial assets and investment property that are
carried at fair value and contractual rights under insurance contracts,
which are specifically exempt from this requirement.
38
DEXUS PRoPERTy GRoUP 2010 AnnuAl REPORT
(n) Other financial assets at fair value through profit and loss
Interests held by the Group in controlled entities and associates are
measured at fair value through profit and loss to reduce a
measurement or recognition inconsistency.
(o) Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment is stated at historical cost less
depreciation and accumulated impairment. Historical cost includes
expenditure that is directly attributable to its acquisition. 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 the Group and
the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other repairs and
maintenance are charged to the Statements of Comprehensive Income
during the financial period in which they are incurred.
Property, plant and equipment are tested for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts
exceed their recoverable amounts (refer note 1(v)).
(p) Depreciation of property, plant and equipment
land is not depreciated. Depreciation on buildings (including fit out)
is calculated on a straight‑line basis so as to write off the net cost of
each non‑current asset over its expected useful life. Estimates for
remaining useful lives are reviewed on a regular basis for all assets
and are as follows:
Buildings (including fit out)
IT equipment
5–50 years
3–5 years
(q) investment properties
During the period DXS adopted the amendments to AASB 140
Investment Property as set out in AASB 2008‑5 Amendments to
Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements
Project effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January
2009. under this amendment, property that is under construction or
development for future use as investment property falls within the scope
of AASB 140. As such development property of this nature is no longer
recognised and measured as property, plant and equipment but is
included as investment property measured at fair value. 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.
As required by the standard, the amendments to AASB 140 have been
applied prospectively from 1 July 2009.
The Group’s investment properties consist of properties held for
long‑term rental yields and/or capital appreciation and property
that is being constructed or developed for future use as investment
property. Investment properties are initially recognised at cost including
transaction costs. Investment properties are subsequently recognised
at fair value in the Financial Statements. Each valuation firm and its
signatory valuer are appointed on the basis that they are engaged for
no more than three consecutive valuations.
The basis of valuations of investment properties is fair value being
the amounts for which the assets could be exchanged between
knowledgeable 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. In addition, an
appropriate valuation method is used, which may include the
discounted cash flow and the capitalisation method. Discount rates and
capitalisation rates are determined based on industry expertise and
knowledge, and where possible a direct comparison to third party rates
for similar assets in a comparable location. Rental revenue from current
leases and assumptions about future leases, as well as any expected
operational cash outflows in relation to the property, are also reflected
in fair value. In relation to development properties under construction
for future use as investment property, where reliably measurable, fair
value is determined based on the market value of the property on the
assumption it had already been completed at the valuation date less
costs still required to complete the project, including an appropriate
adjustment for profit and risk.
External valuations of the individual investments are carried out in
accordance with the Constitutions for each trust forming DXS, or may
be earlier where the Responsible Entity believes there is a potential for
a material change in the fair value of the property.
Changes in fair values are recorded in the Statements of
Comprehensive Income. The gain or loss on disposal of an investment
property is calculated as the difference between the carrying amount
of the asset at the date of disposal and the net proceeds from disposal
and is included in the Statements of Comprehensive Income in the
year of disposal.
Subsequent redevelopment and refurbishment costs (other than
repairs and maintenance) are capitalised to the investment property
where they result in an enhancement in the future economic benefits
of the property.
(r) leasing fees
leasing fees incurred are capitalised and amortised over the lease
periods to which they relate.
(s) lease incentives
Prospective lessees may be offered incentives as an inducement to
enter into operating leases. These incentives may take various forms
including cash payments, rent free periods, or a contribution to certain
lessee costs such as fit out costs or relocation costs.
The costs of incentives are recognised as a reduction of rental revenue
on a straight‑line basis from the earlier of the date which the tenant has
effective use of the premises or the lease commencement date to the
end of the lease term. The carrying amount of the lease incentives is
reflected in the fair value of investment properties.
(t) investments accounted for using the equity method
Some property investments are held through the ownership of units in
single purpose unlisted trusts or shares in unlisted companies where the
Group exerts significant influence but does not have a controlling interest.
These investments are considered to be associates and the equity method
of accounting is applied in the consolidated Financial Statements.
under this method, the entity’s share of the post‑acquisition profits
of associates is recognised in the consolidated Statements of
Comprehensive Income. The cumulative post‑acquisition movements
are adjusted against the carrying amount of the investment. Dividends
or distributions receivable from associates are recognised in the parent
entity’s Statements of Comprehensive Income, while in the consolidated
Financial Statements they reduce the carrying amount of the investment.
When the Group’s share of losses in an associate equal or exceed its
interest in the associate (including any unsecured receivables) the
Group does not recognise any further losses unless it has incurred
obligations or made payments on behalf of the associate.
(u) Business combinations
During the period DXS adopted the 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 for annual
reporting periods beginning on or after 1 July 2009.
The acquisition method of accounting is used to account for all business
combinations. The consideration transferred for the acquisition of a
subsidiary comprises the fair values of the assets transferred, the
liabilities incurred and the equity interests issued by the Group. The
consideration transferred also includes the fair value of any contingent
consideration arrangement and the fair value of any pre‑existing equity
interest in the subsidiary. Acquisition‑related costs are expensed as
incurred. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent
liabilities assumed in a business combination are, with limited exceptions,
measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. The Group
recognises any non‑controlling interest in the acquiree at its
proportionate share of the acquiree’s net identifiable assets.
The excess of the consideration transferred, the amount of any
non‑controlling interest in the acquiree and the acquisition‑date fair
value of any previous equity interest in the acquiree over the fair value
of the Group’s share of the net identifiable assets acquired is recorded
as goodwill. If those amounts are less than the fair value of the net
identifiable assets of the subsidiary acquired and the measurement
of all amounts has been reviewed, the difference is recognised directly
in the Statements of Comprehensive Income as a bargain purchase.
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.

note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(v) impairment of assets
Goodwill and intangible assets 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 are tested 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. For the purposes of assessing impairment, assets are grouped at the lowest levels for which there are separately identifiable cash inflows
which are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets (cash‑generating units). non‑financial assets other than
goodwill that suffered an impairment are reviewed for possible reversal of the impairment at each reporting date.
(w) intangible assets
(i) Goodwill
Goodwill is recognised as of the acquisition date and is measured as the excess of the aggregate of the fair value of consideration transferred and the
non‑controlling interest’s proportionate share of the acquiree’s identifiable net assets over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired.
In a business combination achieved in stages, the acquirer shall remeasure its previously held equity interest in the acquiree at its acquisition‑date
fair value and recognise the resulting gain or loss, if any, in profit or loss.
The carrying value of the goodwill is tested for impairment at each reporting date with any decrement in value taken to the Statements
of Comprehensive Income as an expense.
(ii) management rights
Management rights represent the asset management rights owned by the Group which entitle it to management fee revenue from both finite and
indefinite life trusts. Those rights that are deemed to have a finite useful life, are measured at cost and amortised using the straight‑line method
over their estimated useful lives which vary from six to 22 years.
Management rights with indefinite life are not subject to amortisation and are tested for impairment at the end of each reporting period.

Financial assets and liabilities are classified in accordance with the purpose for which they were acquired.
(ii) Fair value estimation of financial assets and liabilities
The fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities must be estimated for recognition and measurement and for disclosure purposes.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets (such as publicly traded derivatives) is based on quoted market prices at the end of
the reporting period. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Group 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 including dealer quotes for similar instruments and discounted cash flows. In particular, the fair value of interest rate swaps and cross
currency swaps are calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows, the fair value of forward exchange rate contracts is determined
using forward exchange market rates at the end of the reporting period, and the fair value of interest rate option contracts are calculated as the present
value of the estimated future cash flows taking into account the time value and implied volatility of the underlying instrument.

DEXUS PRoPERTy GRoUP 2010 AnnuAl REPORT
(y) Payables
These amounts represent liabilities for amounts owing at end of the
reporting period. The amounts are unsecured and are usually paid
within 30 days of recognition.
(z) interest bearing liabilities
Subsequent to initial recognition at fair value, net of transaction costs
incurred, interest bearing liabilities are measured at amortised cost.
Any difference between the proceeds (net of transaction costs) and the
redemption amount is recognised in the Statements of Comprehensive
Income over the period of the borrowings using the effective interest
method. Interest bearing liabilities are classified as current liabilities
unless the Group has an unconditional right to defer the liability for
at least twelve months after the reporting date.
(ac) foreign currency
Items included in the Financial Statements of the Group are measured
using the currency of the primary economic environment in which the
entity operates (the functional currency). The Financial Statements are
presented in Australian dollars, which is the functional and presentation
currency of the Group.
(i) Foreign currency transactions
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 period end
exchange rates of financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies are recognised in the Statements of Comprehensive Income.
(aa) Employee benefits
(i) Wages, salaries and annual leave
liabilities for employee benefits for wages, salaries and annual leave
represent present obligations resulting from employees’ services
provided to the end of the reporting period, calculated at undiscounted
amounts based on remuneration wage and salary rates that the Group
expect to pay at the end of the reporting period including related
on‑costs, such as workers compensation, insurance and payroll tax.
(ii) long service leave
The provision for employee benefits for long service leave represents the
present value of the estimated future cash outflows, to be made resulting
from employees’ services provided to the end of the reporting period.
The provision is calculated using expected future increases in wage and
salary rates including related on‑costs and expected settlement dates
based on turnover history and is discounted using the rates attaching to
national government bonds at the end of the reporting period which most
closely match the term of the maturity of the related liabilities. The
unwinding of the discount is treated as long service leave expense.
(ab) Earnings per unit
Earnings per unit are determined by dividing the net profit attributable
to unitholders of the parent entity by the weighted average number of
ordinary units outstanding during the year, adjusted for bonus elements
in units issued during the year.
Diluted earnings per unit are adjusted from the basic earnings per unit
by taking into account the impact of dilutive potential units. The Group
did not have such dilutive potential units during the year.
(ii) Foreign operations
Foreign operations are located in the united States, new Zealand,
France, Germany and Canada. These operations have a functional
currency of uS Dollars, nZ Dollars, Euros and Canadian Dollars
respectively, which are translated into the presentation currency.
The assets and liabilities of the foreign operations are translated at
exchange rates prevailing at the end of each reporting period. Income
and expense items are translated at the average exchange rates for the
period. Exchange differences arising, are recognised in the foreign
currency translation reserve and recognised in profit or loss on disposal
of the foreign operation.
Goodwill and fair value adjustments arising on the acquisition of a
foreign operation are treated as assets and liabilities of the foreign
operation and translated at exchange rates prevailing at the end of
each reporting period.
(ad) Operating segments
During the period DXS adopted AASB 8 Operating Segments which
replaced AASB 114 Segment Reporting. The new standard requires
a “management approach”, under which segment information is
presented on the same basis as that used for internal reporting
purposes. This has resulted in a review of the reportable segments
presented. In addition, the segments are reported in a manner that
is more consistent with the internal reporting provided to the Chief
Operating Decision Maker (CODM). The CODM has been identified as
the Board of Directors as they are responsible for the strategic decision
making within the Group. Apart from the additional disclosures and
measures reflected in the operating segments note (note 38), the
adoption of AASB 8 has not had an impact on the measurements
reflected in the Group’s Financial Statements. Comparative information
for 2009 has been represented.
(ae) Rounding of amounts
The Group is the kind referred to in Class Order 98/0100, issued by
the Australian Securities & Investment Commission, relating to the
rounding off of amounts in the Financial Statements. Amounts in the
Financial Statements have been rounded off in accordance with that
Class Order to the nearest thousand dollars, or in certain cases, the
nearest dollar.

for the year ended 30 June 2010

note 1. Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
(af) Presentation of parent entity financial Statements
The Group is a registered scheme of the kind referred to in Class Order 10/654, issued by the Australian Securities & Investments Commission,
relating to the inclusion of parent entity Financial Statements in the consolidated Financial Statements. The Class Order provides relief from the
Corporations Amendment (Corporate Reporting Reform) Act 2010 and the Group continues to present the parent entity Financial Statements and
the consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with that Class Order.
(ag) new accounting standards and interpretations
Certain new accounting standards and interpretations have been published that are not mandatory for the 30 June 2010 reporting period.
Our assessment of the impact of these new standards and interpretations is set out below:
(i) AASB 9 Financial Instruments and AASB 2009‑11 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from AASB 9 (effective from
1 January 2013). AASB 9 Financial Instruments addresses the classification and measurement of financial assets. under the new guidance,
a financial asset is to be measured at amortised cost only if it is held within a business model whose objective is to collect contractual cash
flows and the contractual terms of the asset give rise on specific dates to cash flows that are payments solely of principal and interest on the
principal amount outstanding. All other financial assets are to be measured at fair value. The standard is not applicable until 1 January 2013
but is available for early adoption. The Group is currently assessing the impact of this standard but does not expect it to be significant.
(ii) Revised AASB 124 Related Party Disclosures (effective from 1 January 2011). In December 2009 the AASB issued a revised AASB 124
Related Party Disclosures. It is effective for accounting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2011 and must be applied retrospectively.
The amendment clarifies and simplifies the definition of a related party. The Group will apply the amended standard from 1 July 2011. It is
not expected to have any impact on the Group’s Financial Statements.
(iii) AASB 2009‑5 Further Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising from the Annual Improvements Project (effective from 1 January
2010). In May 2010, the AASB issued a number of improvements to existing Australian Accounting Standards. The Group will apply the revised
standards from 1 July 2010 where applicable. The Group is currently assessing the impact of the revised rules but does not expect it to be
significant.
(iv) AASB 1053 Application of Tiers of Australian Accounting Standards and AASB 2010‑2 Amendments to Australian Accounting Standards arising
from Reduced Disclosure Requirements (effective from 1 July 2013). On 30 June 2010 the AASB officially introduced a revised differential
reporting framework in Australia. under this framework, a two‑tier differential reporting regime applies to all entities that prepare general
purpose financial statements. The Group is listed on the ASX and is therefore not eligible to adopt the new Australian Accounting Standards –
Reduced Disclosure Requirements. As a consequence, the two standards will have no impact on the Financial Statements of the Group.

$2,839,000 (2009: $2,410,000) of current tax expense. The deferred tax benefit is recognised on differences between the tax cost base of the
uS assets and liabilities and their accounting carrying value at end of the reporting period. The majority of the deferred tax benefit arises due to
the tax depreciation and revaluation of uS investment properties as well as mark‑to‑market of derivatives.

Valuation basis
The basis of valuation of investment properties is fair value, being the amounts for which the assets could be exchanged between knowledgeable
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. In relation to development properties under construction for future use as investment property, fair value is
determined based on the market value of the property on the assumption it had already been completed at the valuation date less costs still
required to complete the project, including an appropriate adjustment for profit and risk. Properties independently valued in the last 12 months
were based on independent assessments by a member of the Australian Property Institute, the new Zealand Institute of Valuers, the Appraisal
Institute in the united States of America, the French Real Estate Valuation Institution or the Society of Property Researchers, Germany or the
Appraisal Institute in Canada.
Key valuation assumptions
The below table illustrates the key valuation assumptions used in the determination of the investment properties’ fair value.

($8,415,850) and indefinite life trusts ($214,584,150). Those rights that are deemed to have a finite useful life are measured at cost and
amortised using the straight‑line method over their estimated useful lives which vary from six to 22 years.

impairment of management rights
During the period, DXO carried out a review of the recoverable amount of its management rights. As part of this process, the estimated fair value of
assets under management, which are used to derive the future expected management fee income, have been adjusted to better reflect the current
market conditions. This has resulted in the recognition through the Statements of Comprehensive Income of a reversal of a previous impairment of
$13.3 million (2009: impairment of $41.1 million).
The value in use has been determined using management forecasts in a five year discounted cash flow model. Forecasts were based on projected
returns of the business in light of current market conditions. The performance in year five has been used as a terminal value. The cash flows have
been discounted at 8.6%.

note 32. Financial risk management
To ensure the effective and prudent management of the Group’s capital and financial risks, DXS has a well established framework consisting of a
Board Finance Committee and a Capital Markets Committee. The Board Finance Committee is accountable to and primarily acts as an advisory
body to the DXFM Board and includes three Directors of the DXFM Board. Its responsibilities include reviewing and recommending financial risk
management polices and funding strategies for approval.
The Capital Markets Committee is a management committee that is accountable to both the Board Finance Committee and the Group Management
Committee. It convenes at least quarterly and conducts a review of financial risk management exposures including liquidity, funding strategies and
hedging. It is also responsible for the development of financial risk management policies and funding strategies for recommendation to the Board
Finance Committee, and the approval of treasury transactions within delegated limits and powers.
Further information on the Group’s governance structure, including terms of reference, is available at www.dexus.com
(1) capital risk management
DXS manages its capital to ensure that entities within the Group will be able to continue as a going concern while maximising the return to owners
through the optimisation of the debt and equity balance.
The capital structure of the Group consists of debt (see note 23), cash and cash equivalents, and equity attributable to security holders (including
hybrid securities). The capital structure is monitored and managed in consideration of a range of factors including:
n
the cost of capital and the financial risks associated with each class of capital;
n
gearing levels and other covenants;
n
potential impacts on net tangible assets and security holder’s equity;
n
potential impacts on the Group’s credit rating; and
n
other market factors and circumstances.
To minimise the potential impacts of foreign exchange risk on the Group’s capital structure, the Group’s policy is to hedge the majority of its foreign
asset and liability exposures. Consequently the magnitude of the assets and liabilities on the Statements of Financial Position (translated into
Australian Dollars) and gearing ratios will rise and fall as exchange rates fluctuate. This policy ensures that net tangible assets are not materially
affected by currency movements (refer foreign exchange risk below).
The Group has a stated target gearing level of below 40%. The gearing ratio calculated in accordance with our covenant requirements at
30 June 2010 was 30.4% (as detailed below).

DEXUS PRoPERTy GRoUP 2010 AnnuAl REPORT
The Group is rated BBB+ by Standard and Poor’s (S&P) and Baa1 by
Moody’s. The Group considers potential impacts upon the rating when
assessing the strategy and activities of the Group and regards those
impacts as an important consideration in its management of the
Group’s capital structure.
DXFM is the Responsible Entity for the managed investment schemes
that are stapled to form the Group. DXFM has been issued with an
Australian Financial Services licence (AFSl). The licence is subject
to certain capital requirements including the requirement to hold
minimum net tangible assets (of $5 million), and maintaining a
minimum level of surplus liquid funds. Furthermore, the Responsible
Entity maintains trigger points in accordance with the requirements of
the licence. These trigger points maintain a headroom value above the
AFSl requirements and the entity has in place a number of processes
and procedures should a trigger point be reached.
DWPl, a wholly owned entity, has also been issued with an AFSl as
it is the Responsible Entity for DEXuS Wholesale Property Fund. It is
subject to the same requirements.
(2) financial risk management
The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: credit risk,
market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk),
and liquidity risk. The Group’s overall risk management program
focuses on the unpredictability of financial markets and seeks to
minimise potential adverse effects on the financial performance of DXS.
Accordingly, the Group enters into various derivative financial instruments
such as interest rate swaps, cross currency interest rate swaps, and
foreign exchange contracts to manage its exposure to certain risks. The
Group does not trade in derivative instruments for speculative purposes.
The Group uses different methods to measure the different types of risks
to which it is exposed, including monitoring the current and forecast
levels of exposure, and conducting sensitivity analyses.
Risk management is implemented by a centralised treasury department
(Group Treasury) whose members act under written policies that are
endorsed by the Board Finance Committee and approved by the Board
of Directors of the Responsible Entity. Group Treasury identifies,
evaluates and hedges financial risks in close cooperation with the
Group’s business units. The treasury policies approved by the Board
of Directors cover overall treasury risk management, as well as policies
and limits covering specific areas such as liquidity risk, interest rate
risk, foreign exchange risk, credit risk and the use of derivatives and
other financial instruments. In conjunction with its advisers, the
Responsible Entity continually reviews the Group’s exposures and
(at least annually) updates its treasury policies and procedures.
(a) liquidity risk
liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not have sufficient available
funds to meet financial obligations in an orderly manner when they fall
due or at an acceptable cost.
The Group identifies and manages liquidity risk across short, medium
and long‑term categories:
n
short‑term liquidity management includes continually monitoring
forecast and actual cash flows;
n
medium‑term liquidity management includes maintaining a level of
committed borrowing facilities above the forecast committed debt
requirements (liquidity headroom buffer). Committed debt includes
future expenditure that has been approved by the Board or
Investment Committee (as required within delegated limits), and may
also include projects that have a very high probability of proceeding,
taking into consideration risk factors such as the level of regulatory
approval, tenant pre‑commitments and portfolio considerations; and
n
long‑term liquidity risk is managed through ensuring an adequate
spread of maturities of borrowing facilities so that refinancing risk
is not concentrated, and ensuring an adequate diversification of
funding sources where possible subject to market conditions.
Refinancing risk
A key liquidity risk is the Group’s ability to refinance its current debt
facilities. As the Group’s debt facilities mature, they are usually required
to be refinanced by extending the facility or replacing the facility with
an alternative form of capital.
The refinancing of existing facilities may also result in margin price risk,
whereby market conditions may result in an unfavourable change in
credit margins on the refinanced facilities. The Group’s key risk
management strategy for margin price risk on refinancing is to spread
the maturities of debt facilities over different time periods to reduce the
volume of facilities to be refinanced and the exposure to market
conditions in any one period.
An analysis of the contractual maturities of the Group’s interest bearing
liabilities and derivative financial instruments are shown in the table
below. The amounts in the table represent undiscounted cash flows.

(b) market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value or future cash flows of the Group’s financial instruments will fluctuate because of changes in market prices.
The market risks that the Group is exposed to are detailed further below.
(i) interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that fluctuating interest rates will cause an adverse impact on interest payable (or receivable), or an adverse change on
the capital value (present market value) of long‑term fixed rate instruments.
Interest rate risk for the Group arises from interest bearing financial assets and liabilities that the Group holds. Borrowings issued at variable rates
expose the Group to cash flow interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed rates expose the Group to fair value interest rate risk.
The primary objective of the Group’s risk management policy for interest rate risk is to minimise the effects of interest rate movements on the
Group’s portfolio of financial assets and liabilities and financial performance. The policy sets out the minimum and maximum hedging amounts for
the Group which is managed on a portfolio basis.
Cash flow interest rate risk on borrowings is managed through the use of interest rate swaps, whereby a floating interest rate exposure is converted
to a fixed interest rate exposure. Fair value interest rate risk on borrowings is also managed through the use of interest rate swaps, whereby a fixed
interest exposure is converted to a floating interest rate exposure. The mix of fixed and floating rate exposures is monitored regularly to ensure that
the interest rate exposure on the Group’s cash flows is managed within the parameters defined by the Group Treasury Policy.
As at 30 June 2010, 94% (2009: 92%) of the financial assets and liabilities (including DEXuS REnTS Trust) of the Group had an effective fixed
interest rate.
The Group holds borrowings in multiple currencies with both fixed and floating rate exposures and is exposed to interest rate risk related to each
particular currency.
The net notional amount of fixed rate debt and interest rate swaps in place in each year and the weighted average effective hedge rate per currency
is set out in the next table.

The table below shows the impact on unhedged net interest expense (excluding non‑cash items) of a 50 basis points increase or decrease in
short‑term and long‑term market interest rates. The sensitivity on cash flow arises due to the impact that a change in interest rates will have on the
Group’s floating rate debt and derivative cash flows. net interest expense is only sensitive to movements in markets rates to the extent that floating

Sensitivity on fair value of interest rate swaps
The table below shows the impact on the Statements of Comprehensive Income for changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps for a 50 basis
points increase and decrease in short‑term and long‑term market interest rates. The sensitivity on the fair value arises from the impact that
changes in market rates will have on the mark‑to‑market valuation of the interest rate swaps. The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as
the present value of estimated future cash flows on the instruments. Cash flows are discounted using the forward price curve of interest rates at
the end of the reporting period. Although interest rate swaps are transacted for the purpose of providing the Group with an economic hedge, the
Group has elected not to apply hedge accounting to its interest rate derivatives. Accordingly, gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value
are reflected in the Statements of Comprehensive Income.

Foreign exchange risk is the risk that movements in exchange rates used to convert foreign currency revenues, expenses, assets, or liabilities to the
Group’s functional currency will have an adverse effect on the Group.
The Group operates internationally with investments in the united States, new Zealand, France, Germany and Canada. As a result of these
activities, the Group has foreign exchange risk, arising primarily from:
n
translation of investments in foreign operations;
n
borrowings and cross currency swaps denominated in foreign currencies; and
n
earnings distributions and other transactions denominated in foreign currencies.
The objective of the Group’s foreign exchange risk management policy is to ensure that movements in exchange rates have minimal adverse impact
on the Group’s foreign currency assets and liabilities, and net foreign currency cash flows as outlined on page 79.
78
DEXUS PRoPERTy GRoUP 2010 AnnuAl REPORT
Foreign currency assets and liabilities
Exposure to foreign exchange risk is minimised by predominantly matching the currency of the Group’s debt with the currency of its investment
to form a natural hedge against movements in exchange rates. This policy reduces the risk that movements in foreign exchange rates will have
an adverse impact on security holder’s equity and net tangible assets.
Where Australian dollar borrowings are used to fund the foreign currency investment, the Group may transact cross currency swaps for the purpose
of providing an alternate source of foreign currency funding whilst maintaining the natural hedge. In these instances the Group has committed
foreign currency borrowing capacity in place that can replace the foreign currency amounts that are due under the cross currency swaps.
The Group’s net foreign currency exposures for net investments in foreign operations and hedging instruments are as follows:

The table below shows the impact on the foreign currency translation reserve for changes in the translated value of foreign currency assets and
liabilities for an increase and decrease in foreign exchange rates per currency. The increase and decrease in cents per currency has been based
on the historical movements of the Australian dollar relative to each currency1. The cents per currency has been applied to the spot rates prevailing
at 30 June 20102. The impact on the foreign currency translation reserve arises as the translation of the Group’s foreign currency assets and

note 32. Financial risk management (continued)
(2) financial risk management (continued)
(c) Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of loss to the Group in the event of non‑performance
by the Group’s financial instrument counterparties. Credit risk arises from
cash and cash equivalents, loans and receivables, and derivative financial
instruments. The Group and parent entity have exposure to credit risk on
all financial assets.
The Group manages this risk by:
n
adopting a process for determining an approved counterparty, with
consideration of qualitative factors as well as the counterparty’s rating;
n
regularly monitoring counterparty exposure within approved credit limits
that are based on the lower of a S&P, Moody’s and Fitch credit rating.
The exposure includes the current market value of in‑the‑money
contracts as well as potential exposure, which is measured with
reference to credit conversion factors as per APRA guidelines;
n
entering into ISDA Master Agreements once a financial institution
counterparty is approved;
n
ensuring tenants, together with approved credit limits, are approved and
ensuring that leases are undertaken with a large number of tenants;
n
for some trade receivables, obtaining collateral where necessary
in the form of bank guarantees and tenant bonds; and
n
regularly monitoring loans and receivables on an ongoing basis.
A minimum S&P rating of A– (or Moody’s or Fitch equivalent) is
required to become or remain an approved counterparty. As at
30 June 2010, the lowest rating of counterparties the Group was
exposed to was A (S&P) (2009: A (S&P)).
Financial instrument transactions are spread among a number of
approved financial institutions within specified credit limits to minimise
the Group’s exposure to any one counterparty. As a result, there is no
significant concentration of credit risk for financial instruments.
The maximum exposure to credit risk at 30 June 2010 and
30 June 2009 was the carrying amount of financial assets recognised
on the Statements of Financial Position of the Group and parent entity.
As at 30 June 2010 and 30 June 2009, the Group and the parent
have no significant concentrations of credit risk for trade receivables.
Trade receivable balances and the credit quality of trade debtors are
consistently monitored on an ongoing basis.
For the consolidated entity, the ageing analysis of loans and receivables
net of provisions at 30 June 2010 is ($’000): 23,356.6 (0‑30 days),
1,045.0 (31‑60 days), 184.4 (61‑90 days), 424.0 (91+ days).
The ageing analysis of loans and receivables net of provisions at
30 June 2009 is ($’000): 32,014.9 (0‑30 days), 1,313.1 (31‑60 days),
702.6 (61‑90 days), 2,456.4 (91+ days). Amounts over 31 days are
past due, however, no receivables are impaired.
For the parent entity, the ageing analysis for loans and receivables
net of provisions at 30 June 2010 is ($’000): 68,036.6 (0‑30 days),
58.5 (31‑60 days), 10.4 (61‑90 days), 56.5 (91+ days). The ageing
analysis of loans and receivables net of provisions for the parent entity
at 30 June 2009 is ($’000): 8,124.3 (0‑30 days), 123.7 (31‑60 days),
37.6 (61‑90 days), 133.4 (91+ days). Amounts over 31 days are past
due, however, no receivables are impaired.
The credit quality of financial assets that are neither past due nor
impaired is consistently monitored to ensure that there are no
adverse changes in credit quality.

1 Carrying value is equal to the value of the financial instruments on the Statements of Financial Position.
2 Fair value is the amount for which the financial instrument could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties in an arm’s length transaction,
however, not recognised on the Statements of Financial Position.
The fair value of interest bearing liabilities and derivative financial instruments has been determined by discounting the expected future cash flows
by the relevant market interest rates. The discount rates applied range from 0.53% to 4.21% for uS$ and 4.79% to 6.08% for A$. Refer note 1(x)
for fair value methodology for financial assets and liabilities.

Determination of fair value
The Group uses methods in the determination and disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments. These methods comprise:
level 1: the fair value is calculated using quoted prices in active markets.
level 2: the fair value is determined using inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either
directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
level 3: the fair value is estimated using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable data.
The following tables present the consolidated and parent entity’s assets and liabilities measured and recognised as at fair value at 30 June 2010.

1 Bank guarantee held in relation to an equity accounted investment (refer note 17).
DDF together with DIT, DOT and DXO is also a guarantor of a uS$210.0 million (A$246.4 million) syndicated bank debt facility and a total of
A$1,182.5 million and uS$120.0 million (A$147.9 million) of bank bilateral facilities, a total of A$361.1 million of medium‑term notes, a total of
uS$400.0 million (A$493.0 million) of privately placed notes, and a total of uS$300.0 million (A$352.0 million) public 144a senior notes, which
have all been negotiated to finance the Group and other entities within DXS. The guarantees have been given in support of debt outstanding and
drawn against these facilities, and may be called upon in the event that a borrowing entity has not complied with certain requirements such as
failure to pay interest or repay a borrowing, whichever is earlier. During the period no guarantees were called.
The Trust together with DIT, DOT and DXO is also a guarantor, on a subordinated basis, of REnTS (Real‑estate perpetual Exchangable sTep‑up
Securities). The guarantee has been given in support of payments that become due and payable to the REnTS holders and ranks ahead of the
Group’s distribution payments, but subordinated to the claims of the senior creditors.
The guarantees are issued in respect of the Group and do not constitute an additional liability to those already existing in interest bearing liabilities
on the Statements of Financial Position.
The Directors of the Responsible Entity are not aware of any other contingent liabilities in relation to the Group, other than those disclosed in the
Financial Statements, which should be brought to the attention of security holders as at the date of completion of this report.

with in their Directors’ Report or the Financial Statements that has significantly or may significantly affect the operations of the Group, the results
of those operations, or state of the Group’s affairs in future financial periods.
note 38. operating segments
(a) Description of segments
The Chief Operating Decision Maker (CODM) has been identified as the Board of Directors as they are responsible for the strategic decision making
within the Group. DXS management has identified the Group’s operating segments based on the sectors analysed within the management reports
reviewed by the CODM in order to monitor performance across the Group and to appropriately allocate resources. Refer to the table below for a
brief description of the Group’s operating segments.
Office – Australia and new Zealand
This operating segment comprises office space with any associated retail space, as well as
car parks and office developments in Australia and new Zealand.
Industrial – Australia
Industrial – north America
Management Company
Financial Services
All other segments
This operating segment comprises domestic industrial properties, industrial estates and
industrial developments in Australia.
This comprises industrial properties, industrial estates and industrial developments in the
united States as well as one industrial asset in Canada.
The domestic and uS based management companies are responsible for asset, property and
development management of Office, Industrial and Retail properties for DXS and the third party
funds management business.
The treasury function of DXS is managed through a centralised treasury department.
As a result, all treasury related financial information relating to borrowings, finance costs
as well as fair value movements in derivatives, are prepared and monitored separately.
This comprises the European industrial and retail portfolios. These operating segments do not
meet the quantitative thresholds set out in AASB 8 Operating Segments due to their relatively
small scale. As a result these non‑core operating segments have been included in “all other
segments” in the operating segment information shown on pages 93 to 97.

(c) Other segment information
(i) Segment revenue
The revenue from external parties reported to the Board is measured in a manner consistent with that in the Statements of Comprehensive Income.
Revenue from external customers is derived predominantly through property revenue and management fee revenue. A breakdown of revenue by
operating segment is provided in the tables above. DXS internally manages many of its investment properties for which inter‑segment management
fees are received (refer note 35 for information relating to inter‑company management fee income). Furthermore, inter‑segment rental income is
received from the funds management company. These amounts are eliminated on consolidation (refer to reconciliation below).

revenue from external customers in other countries is $171.4 million (2009: $218.4 million). Revenue from external customers includes $146.8 million
(2009: $188.7 million) attributable to the united States portfolio. Segment revenues are allocated based on the country in which the investment
property is located.
There is no single external tenant which is responsible for greater than 10% of external revenue.

(ii) net operating income (noI) and operating earnings before interest and tax (operating EBIT)
The Board assesses the performance of each operating sector based on a measure of nOI, which is determined as property revenue less
attributable property expenses. The performance indicator predominantly used as a measure of the management company’s performance is the
Management Company EBIT, which comprises management fee revenue less compensation related expenses and other management operating
expenses. Both the property nOI and the management company’s EBIT exclude the effects of finance costs, taxation and non‑cash items such as
unrealised fair value adjustments, which are monitored by management separately. The reconciliation below reconciles these profit measures to the
loss attributable to stapled security holders.

(iii) Segment assets
The amounts provided to the CODM as a measure of segment assets is the direct property portfolio. The direct property portfolio values are
allocated based on the physical location of the asset and are measured in a manner consistent with the Statements of Financial Position. The direct
property portfolio comprises investment properties, all development properties and the Group’s share of properties held through equity accounted
investments. The reconciliation below reconciles the total direct property portfolio balance to total assets in the Statements of Financial Position.
DXS is domiciled in Australia. Total non‑current assets other than financial instruments and deferred tax assets located in Australia is $5,868.1 million
(2009: $5,943.2 million), and the amount located in other countries is $1,652.1 million (2009: $1,919.6 million). This includes $1,455.2 million
(2009: $1,678.4 million) attributable to the united States portfolio.
