This hybrid instrument, also known as Goodman PLUS, will be applied to retiring debt drawn down under Goodman Group's bridge bank facilities and diversifying the group's funding sources. The step-up preference units, which are subordinated to all senior creditors of the Goodman Group, will be issued by Goodman PLUS Trust, a special-purpose sub-trust of Goodman Industrial Trust. "The 'BBB-' rating on the units reflects their subordination to the group's senior creditors and the deferability of the coupon payment under the terms of the issue documentation," Standard&Poor'sAUS40402020 404020 4040 40Goodman Group412233PACAUNEWSAUSGoodman Industrial TrustGoodman PLUS Trust421399429360PACGLOBISSSTRUCCORPRECCredit & Investment ResearchS&P Credit Researchhttp://www.alacrastore.com/storecontent/spcred/613095spcred/613095normThe latest News from S&P11/13/2007 8:58:30 PMNews100globalstructured613095AustraliaIndustrial REIT'sPacificGlobal IssuersStructured FinanceCorporationsReal Estate CompaniesNewsMELBOURNE (Standard&Poor's) Nov. 14, 2007--Standard&Poor's Ratings Services today said that it had assigned its 'BBB+' long-term rating to Goodman Group's (BBB+/Stable/--) US$5 billion Euro medium-term note (MTN) program. The Euro MTN program is consistent with Goodman Group's strategy of retiring debt drawn down under the group's bridge bank facilities and diversifying its funding sources. A sizeable increase in debt levels resulted in the group's debt outstanding increasing to A$3.9 billion at June 30, 2007, from a year-earlier A$2.2 billion. The debt was predominantly invested in associates and joint-venture entities, including the acquisition of Rosemound PLC. About 7% of this debt is secured, and 45% is short-term bridge financing, which will be partly refinanced with this capital-marketAUS40402020 404020 4040 40Goodman Group412233PACAUNEWSGLOBISSSTRUCCORPRECCredit & Investment ResearchS&P Credit Research
