Annual Report on Form 10-K

All references to numbered Notes are to specific footnotes to the Consolidated Financial Statements of General Growth Properties, Inc. ("GGP" or the "Company") as included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K ("Annual Report"). The descriptions (and definitions, if not otherwise defined) included in such Notes are incorporated into the applicable Item response by reference. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with such Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes. The terms "we," "us" and "our" may also be used to refer to GGP and its subsidiaries.
INTRODUCTION
GGP is a Delaware corporation, organized in 1986, which operates as a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, referred to as a "REIT." We have ownership interest in, or management responsibility for, over 200 regional shopping malls in 43 states, as well as ownership in master planned communities and commercial office buildings.
Our business is focused in two main areas:
Substantially all of our business is conducted through GGP Limited Partnership ("the Operating Partnership" or "GGPLP"). We own one hundred percent of many of our properties and a majority or controlling interest of certain others. As a result, these properties are consolidated under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") and we refer to them as the "Consolidated Properties." Some properties are held through joint venture entities in which we own a non-controlling interest ("Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates") and we refer to those properties as the "Unconsolidated Properties." Collectively, we refer to the Consolidated Properties and Unconsolidated Properties as our "Company Portfolio."
We generally make all key strategic decisions for our Consolidated Properties. However, in connection with the Unconsolidated Properties, such strategic decisions are made with the respective stockholders, members or joint venture partners. We are also the asset manager for most of the Company Portfolio, executing the strategic decisions and overseeing the day-to-day property management functions, including operations, leasing, construction management, maintenance, accounting, marketing and promotional services. With respect to jointly owned properties, we generally conduct the management activities through General Growth Management, Inc. ("GGMI"), one of our taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRS") which manages, leases, and performs various services for the majority of the properties owned by our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates and 19 properties owned by unaffiliated third parties, all located in the United States, and also performs marketing and strategic partnership services at five of the operating retail properties owned by our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates. All of the 15 operating retail properties owned either through our Brazil or Turkey joint ventures are unconsolidated and are managed by our joint venture partners.
BANKRUPTCY
On April 16, 2009, the Company, the Operating Partnership and certain of the Company's domestic subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United
1
States Code ("Chapter 11"). On April 22, 2009 (collectively with April 16, 2009, the "Petition Date"), certain additional domestic subsidiaries (collectively with the Company and the subsidiaries that sought Chapter 11 protection on April 16, 2009, the "Debtors") of the Company also filed voluntary petitions for relief (collectively, the "Chapter 11 Cases"). However, neither GGMI, certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, nor any of our joint ventures, (collectively, the "Non-Debtors") either consolidated or unconsolidated, have sought such protection. The Chapter 11 Cases were filed in the Bankruptcy Court of the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court") and are currently being jointly administered. A total of 388 Debtors with approximately $21.83 billion of debt filed for Chapter 11 protection.
The Company and certain of the Debtors are currently operating as "debtors in possession" under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and the applicable provisions of the Chapter 11 (Note 1Debtors in Posession). In general, as debtors in possession, we are authorized under Chapter 11 to continue to operate as an ongoing business, but may not engage in transactions outside the ordinary course of business without the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court. The Bankruptcy Court has granted a variety of Debtor motions that allow the Company to continue to operate its business in the ordinary course without interruption, and covering, among other things, employee obligations, critical service providers, tax matters, insurance matters, tenant and contractor obligations, claim settlements, ordinary course property sales, cash management, cash collateral, alternative dispute resolution, settlement of the pre-petition mechanics liens and department store transactions.
The Bankruptcy Court also authorized the Senior Secured Debtor in Possession Credit, Security and Guaranty Agreement (the "DIP Facility") (Note 6) which provides for a $400.0 million term loan. The proceeds of the DIP Facility were used to refinance certain pre-petition secured indebtedness and to fund the Debtors' working capital requirements during Chapter 11.
On April 16, 2009, and May 21, 2009, respectively, the Company's common stock was suspended from trading, and then de-listed, from the New York Stock Exchange (the "Exchange"). On April 17, 2009, the Company's common stock began trading on the over the counter market referred to as the Pink Sheet Electronic Quotation Service (the "Pink Sheets") under the symbol GGWPQ.
The bankruptcy petitions triggered defaults on substantially all debt obligations of the Debtors. However, under section 362 of Chapter 11, the filing of a bankruptcy petition automatically stays most actions against the debtor's estate. The Chapter 11 Cases created the protections necessary for the Debtors to be able to develop and begin execution of a restructuring of the Debtors to extend mortgage maturities, reduce corporate debt and overall leverage and establish a sustainable long-term capital structure.
We are pursuing a deliberate two-stage strategy to accomplish our reorganization, the first step of which is to restructure our property-level secured mortgage debt. As a result, during December 2009, January and February 2010, 231 Debtors (the "Track 1 Debtors") owning 119 properties with $12.33 billion of secured mortgage debt filed consensual plans of reorganization (the "Track 1 Plans") with the Bankruptcy Court. As of December 31, 2009, 113 Debtors owning 50 properties with approximately $4.65 billion of secured mortgage debt restructured such debt and emerged from bankruptcy (the "Track 1A Debtors"). Through March 1, 2010, an additional 92 Debtors owning 57 properties with approximately $5.98 billion of secured mortgage debt restructured such debt and emerged from bankruptcy. Effectiveness of the plans of reorganization and/or restructuring of the $1.70 billion of secured mortgage debt of the remaining Track 1 Debtors (together with the Track 1 Debtors that have already emerged from bankruptcy in 2010, the "Track 1B Debtors") is expected to occur in the first quarter of 2010.
GGP is continuing to pursue consensual restructurings for 31 Debtors (the "Remaining Secured Debtors") with secured loans aggregating $2.50 billion. The Chapter 11 Cases for the Remaining Secured Debtors and the other remaining Debtors (generally GGP, GGPLP and other holding company
2
subsidiaries, the "TopCo Debtors" and together with the Remaining Secured Debtors, the "2010 Track Debtors") will continue until their respective plans of reorganization are filed, approved by the respective creditors, confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court and are effective.
Although we have successfully restructured $10.65 billion of secured mortgage debt, no agreements have been reached with respect to $2.50 billion of secured debt and $6.51 billion of unsecured debt and we do not yet have a filed or confirmed plan of reorganization for the 2010 Track Debtors. In addition, our share of the secured mortgage debt of our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates maturing in 2010 (excluding the Woodlands MPC and Brazil loans) is $513.8 million (of which $78.3 million has been extended to 2014) and we have not yet restructured or refinanced this secured debt. Therefore, there continues to be the potential for substantially adverse outcomes to these unresolved contingencies which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern (see also Note 1).
GENERAL DEVELOPMENT OF BUSINESS
In the first quarter of 2009, liquidity was our primary issue. As of March 31, 2009, we had $2.01 billion in past due debt and an additional $4.09 billion of debt that could have been accelerated. We did not have sufficient liquidity to make principal payments on maturing or accelerating debt or pay our past due payables. We reviewed all of our strategic and financial alternatives during the first quarter of 2009 and tried to develop an out of court restructuring plan with our lenders. To forestall certain foreclosure proceedings and to facilitate further negotiations with our secured and unsecured lenders, we filed for bankruptcy in April 2009.
Prior to and immediately following the bankruptcy filing, we were focused on preservation of capital and maintenance of occupancy levels at our retail and other rental properties. As a result, the typical length of new and renewal leases entered into in 2009 was shorter than historical averages as a result of economic conditions and our financial condition.. Following the filing of the bankruptcy cases through the end of the second quarter of 2009, we focused on stabilizing our business during the Chapter 11 Cases and maintaining the profitability of our operating properties. In the second half of 2009, we recommitted to our strategic repairs and maintenance programs deferred as a result of liquidity issues to ensure that our retail properties continue to provide the right physical environment for our tenants and shoppers. We strategically reduced operational costs, without reducing service levels, and used these savings to further our repairs and maintenance related to property preservation and upkeep.
During the fourth quarter of 2009, and into 2010, we developed a long term business plan. The business plan is the culmination of a strategic and financial analysis of the Company and all of its assets. The business plan contemplates the continued ownership and operation of most of our retail shopping centers, divestiture of non-core assets and suspension of development projects. It also contemplates the transfer of certain non-performing retail assets to applicable lenders in satisfaction of secured mortgage debt. The business plan provides the framework for the two key strategic initiatives we have undertaken. The first initiative was the design and restructuring of the balance sheet to create the sustainable long-term capital structure we desire upon emergence from bankruptcy. We developed and commenced a deliberate two stage strategy for our balance sheet restructuring and emergence. We have made substantial progress on the first stage of the strategy, which includes the extension of the maturity dates of our secured mortgage debt and the emergence from bankruptcy of the Debtors associated with such debt. We are working on the second stage of the strategy, restructuring of the TopCo Debtors and have undertaken a process to explore all possible alternatives for emergence of the TopCo Debtors.
The second key strategic initiative arising from the business plan is the development of a long term operational strategy. We developed and launched the two necessary processes we identified for creation of a strategy designed to increase long-term net operating income ("NOI"). These two processes include a reengineering program and a strategic planning process for each of our retail shopping centers.

Our business plan is subject to change and would be changed if the agreement in principal with Brookfield Asset Management Inc. is consummated. See "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial condition and Results of Operations; OverviewIntroduction" for a discussion of the agreement in principle.
In the fourth quarter of 2008, we halted or deferred substantially all of our development and redevelopment projects, other than projects which were substantially complete, projects at properties owned by our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates, and projects with commitments we were obligated to fulfill. Costs to complete, or that we are obligated to pay (subject to any confirmed plan of reorganization of the TopCo Debtors) related to our remaining active domestic projects are expected to be approximately $248.0 million in 2010 and beyond. Our current business plan contemplates that we will not have sufficient capital to complete the substantial majority of our deferred development and redevelopment projects nor to continue to hold certain non-performing retail assets. Accordingly, we recorded approximately $1.22 billion in property, goodwill and project impairments in 2009.
From 2005 to the third quarter of 2008, our focus was on development projects, including new development and redevelopment and expansion of existing properties. In such regard, we opened in September 2007 The Natick Collection in Natick, Massachusetts, which, anchored by Nordstrom, Neiman Marcus, JC Penney, Lord & Taylor, Macy's and Sears, is the largest mall in New England. Additionally, we opened The Shops at Fallen Timbers in Maumee, Ohio in October 2007. In March 2008, we opened The Shoppes at River Crossing in Macon, Georgia, an approximately 659,000 square foot open-air center anchored by Dillard's and Belk. Two significant projects in progress in 2008 which were completed in 2009 were the 138,000 square foot expansion of the Fashion Place Mall in Murray Utah (consisting of a Nordstrom and certain national restaurant tenants) in the spring of 2009 and a 165,000 square foot expansion and food court renovation at the Christiana Mall in Newark, Delaware which opened in November 2009. Internationally, in Brazil, our joint venture opened Caxias Shopping (an approximately 275,500 square foot center in Rio de Janeiro) in November 2008 and, in 2009, Boulevard Brasilia (an approximately 182,000 square foot project in Brasilia) and Boulevard Shopping Belem (approximately 366,000 square feet of retail space in Belem) in June and November, respectively.
Prior to and through the acquisition of The Rouse Company in November 2004 (the "TRC Merger"), acquisitions have been a key contributor to our growth. Since 2005, our only major acquisition has been the July 6, 2007 acquisition of the fifty percent interest owned by New York State Common Retirement Fund ("NYSCRF") in the GGP/Homart I portfolio of 19 regional shopping malls, one community center and three regional shopping malls owned with NYSCRF pursuant to an election by NYSCRF to exercise its exchange right with respect to its ownership in GGP/Homart I and the February 29, 2008 acquisition of the Shoppes at the Palazzo in Las Vegas Nevada (Note 3).
FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT INDUSTRY SEGMENTS
Reference is made to Note 16 for information regarding our segments.
NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Retail and Other Segment
Our Retail and Other segment consists of retail centers, office and industrial buildings and mixed-use and other properties.
Retail Portfolio
The retail properties in our retail and other segment ("Retail Portfolio") is comprised primarily of regional shopping centers, but also includes festival market places, urban mixed-use centers and strip/community centers. Most of our shopping centers are strategically located in major and middle markets
4
throughout the United States where they have strong competitive positions. Most of these properties contain at least one major department store or other large retail store with Gross Leaseable Area ("GLA") greater than 30,000 square feet (an "Anchor"). We also own non-controlling interests in various international joint ventures in Brazil, Turkey and Costa Rica and we believe the Retail Portfolio's geographic diversification mitigates the effects of regional economic conditions and local factors. We entered into an agreement to sell our investment in Costa Rica for $7.5 million, yielding a nominal gain that we expect will be recognized in the first quarter of 2010.
A detailed listing of the principal properties in our Retail Portfolio is included in Item 2 of this Annual Report.
The majority of the income from the properties in the Retail Portfolio is derived from rents received through long-term leases with retail tenants. These long-term leases generally require the tenants to pay base rent which is a fixed amount specified in the lease. The base rent is often subject to scheduled increases during the term of the lease. Another component of income is Overage Rent ("Overage Rent"). Overage Rent is paid by a tenant when its sales exceed an agreed upon minimum amount. Overage Rent is calculated by multiplying the sales in excess of the minimum amount by a percentage defined in the lease, the majority of which is typically earned in the fourth quarter. Our leases include both a base rent component and a component which requires tenants to pay amounts related to all, or substantially all, of their share of real estate taxes and certain property operating expenses, including common area maintenance and insurance. The revenue earned attributable to real estate tax and operating expense recoveries are recorded as "Tenant recoveries."
The following table reflects retail tenant representation by category for the domestic Consolidated Properties as of December 31, 2009. In general, similar percentages existed for the Unconsolidated Properties.

For the year ended December 31, 2009, our largest tenant (based on common parent ownership) accounted for approximately 3% of consolidated rents.
Other Office, Industrial and Mixed-Use Buildings
Office and other properties are primarily components of large-scale mixed-use properties (which include retail, parking and other uses) located in urban markets. In addition, we own certain free-standing office or industrial properties in office parks in the Baltimore/Washington, D.C. and Las Vegas markets. We own approximately seven million square feet of leaseable office and industrial space, including properties adjacent to our retail centers.
Master Planned Communities Segment
The Master Planned Communities segment is comprised primarily of the following large-scale, long-term community development projects:

We develop and sell land in these communities to builders and other developers for residential, commercial and other uses. Additionally, certain saleable land within these properties may be transferred to our Retail and Other segment to be developed as commercial properties for either our own use or to be operated as investment rental property. Finally, our 215 unit residential condominium project (Nouvelle at Natick in Natick (Boston), Massachusetts) has been reflected within this segment.
OTHER BUSINESS INFORMATION
Competition
The nature and extent of the competition we face varies from property to property within each segment of our business. In our Retail and Other segment, our direct competitors include other publicly-traded retail mall development and operating companies, retail real estate companies, commercial property developers and other owners of retail real estate that engage in similar businesses.
Within our Retail Portfolio, we compete for retail tenants. We believe the principal factors that retailers consider in making their leasing decision include:
Based on these criteria, we believe that the size and scope of our property portfolio, as well as the overall quality and attractiveness of our individual properties, enable us to compete effectively for retail tenants in our local markets. Because our revenue potential is linked to the success of our retailers, we indirectly share exposure to the same competitive factors that our retail tenants experience in their respective markets when trying to attract individual shoppers. These dynamics include general competition from other regional shopping centers, including outlet malls and other discount shopping centers, as well as competition with discount shopping clubs, catalog companies, internet sales and telemarketing. We believe that we have a competitive advantage with respect to operational retail property management as our expertise allows us to evaluate existing retail properties for their increased profit potential through expansion, remodeling, re-merchandising and more efficient management of the property.
With respect to our office and other properties, we experience competition in the development and management of our properties similar to that of our Retail Portfolio. Prospective tenants generally consider quality and appearance, amenities, location relative to other commercial activity and price in determining the attractiveness of our properties. Based on the quality and location of our properties, which are generally in urban markets or are concentrated in the commercial centers of our master planned communities, we believe that our properties are viewed favorably among prospective tenants.
7
In our Master Planned Communities segment, we compete with other landholders and residential and commercial property developers in the development of properties within the Baltimore/Washington, D.C., Las Vegas and Houston markets. Significant factors which we believe allow us to compete effectively in this business include:
Environmental Matters
Under various Federal, state and local laws and regulations, an owner of real estate is liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on such real estate. These laws often impose such liability without regard to whether the owner knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. The costs of remediation or removal of such substances may be substantial, and the presence of such substances, or the failure to promptly remediate such substances, may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell such real estate or to borrow using such real estate as collateral. In connection with our ownership and operation of our properties, we, or the relevant joint venture through which the property is owned, may be potentially liable for such costs.
Substantially all of our properties have been subject to Phase I environmental assessments, which are intended to evaluate the environmental condition of the surveyed and surrounding properties. The Phase I environmental assessments included a historical review, a public records review, a preliminary investigation of the site and surrounding properties, screening for the presence of asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls ("PCBs") and underground storage tanks and the preparation and issuance of a written report, but do not include soil sampling or subsurface investigations. A Phase II assessment, when necessary, was conducted to further investigate any issues raised by the Phase I assessment. In each case where Phase I and/or Phase II assessments resulted in specific recommendations for remedial actions required by law, management has either taken or scheduled the recommended action.
Neither the Phase I nor the Phase II assessments have revealed any environmental liability that we believe would have a material adverse effect on our overall business, financial condition or results of operations. Nevertheless, it is possible that these assessments do not reveal all environmental liabilities or that there are material environmental liabilities of which we are unaware. Moreover, no assurances can be given that future laws, ordinances or regulations will not impose any material environmental liability or the current environmental condition of our properties will not be adversely affected by tenants and occupants of the properties, by the condition of properties in the vicinity of our properties (such as the presence on such properties of underground storage tanks) or by third parties unrelated to us.
Future development opportunities may require additional capital and other expenditures in order to comply with federal, state and local statutes and regulations relating to the protection of the environment. However, we may not have sufficient liquidity to comply with such statutes and regulations and may be required to halt or defer such development projects. We cannot predict with any certainty the magnitude of any such expenditures or the long-range effect, if any, on our operations. Compliance with such laws has not had a material adverse effect on our operating results or competitive position in the past but could have such an effect in the future.

Employees
As of December 31, 2009, we had approximately 3,200 employees.
Qualification as a Real Estate Investment Trust and Taxability of Distributions
GGP currently qualifies as a real estate investment trust pursuant to the requirements contained in Sections 856-858 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). If, as we contemplate, such qualification continues, GGP will not be subject to Federal tax on its real estate investment trust taxable income. During 2009, GGP met its distribution requirements to its common stockholders as provided for in Section 857 of the Code (Notes 1 and 7).
Available Information
Our Internet website address is www.ggp.com. Our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Interactive Data Files, Current Reports on Form 8-K and amendments to those reports are available and may be accessed free of charge through the Investment section of our Internet website under the Shareholder Info subsection, as soon as reasonably practicable after those documents are filed with, or furnished to, the SEC. Our Internet website and included or linked information on the website are not intended to be incorporated into this Annual Report.
As a result of our Chapter 11 filing, we are now required to periodically file various documents with, and provide certain information to, the Bankruptcy Court, including statements of financial affairs, schedules of assets and liabilities, and monthly operating reports in forms prescribed by Chapter 11 or the U. S. Trustee, as well as certain financial information on an unconsolidated basis. Such materials will be prepared according to requirements of Chapter 11. While we believe that these documents and reports provide then-current information required under Chapter 11, they are prepared only for the Debtors and, hence, certain operational entities are excluded. In addition, they are prepared in a format different from that used in this Annual Report and other reports we file with the SEC and there has not been and there will not be any association of our independent registered public accounting firm with such information. Accordingly, we believe that the substance and format of our bankruptcy related filed reports do not allow meaningful comparison with our regular publicly-disclosed consolidated financial statements. Moreover, the materials filed with the Bankruptcy Court are not prepared for the purpose of providing a basis for an investment decision relating to our securities, or for comparison with other financial information filed with the SEC.
BANKRUPTCY RISKS
We filed for protection under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code
As more fully described in Item 1 Business, the Debtors filed voluntary petitions to reorganize under Chapter 11 on April 16 and April 22, 2009. As of December 31, 2009, the Track 1A Debtors have emerged from bankruptcy protection pursuant to confirmed plans of reorganization. The Chapter 11 Cases relating to certain Track 1 Debtors and the 2010 Track Debtors, however, are still pending. During the remaining Chapter 11 Cases, we plan to continue to operate our business as it relates to these Debtors as debtors-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of Chapter 11. Our operations, including our ability to execute our business plan, are subject to the risks and uncertainties associated with the continuing bankruptcy proceedings of certain Debtors, including, but not limited to, the following:
9
The ultimate impact that events that occur during the bankruptcy proceedings will have on our business, financial condition and results of operations cannot be predicted or quantified.
Our DIP Credit Agreement may not provide sufficient liquidity during the remaining Chapter 11 Cases
In the event that cash flows and borrowings under the DIP Credit Agreement are not sufficient to meet our liquidity requirements, including the emergence costs for the Track 1 Debtors, we may be required to seek additional financing. There can be no assurance that such additional financing would be available or, if available, would be offered on acceptable terms. Failure to secure any necessary additional financing would have a material adverse impact on our operations and ongoing viability.
Operating under Chapter 11 may restrict our ability to pursue our business strategies
Under Chapter 11, transactions outside the ordinary course of business will be subject to the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court, which may limit our ability to respond in a timely manner to certain events or take advantage of certain opportunities. We must obtain Bankruptcy Court approval to, among other things:
The pursuit of the Chapter 11 Cases has consumed and will consume a substantial portion of the time and attention of our corporate management and will impact how our business is conducted, which may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations
The requirements of the Chapter 11 Cases has consumed and will continue to consume a substantial portion of our corporate management's time and attention and leave them with less time to devote to the operations of our business. Our management has spent considerable time developing the emergence plans for the Track 1 Debtors and the 2010 Track Debtors and the business plan for the Company. This diversion of corporate management's attention may have a material adverse effect on the conduct of our business, and, as a result, on our financial condition and results of operations, particularly if the Chapter 11 Cases are protracted.
10
Our employees are facing considerable distractions and uncertainty due to the Chapter 11 Cases
As a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, our employees are facing considerable distractions and uncertainty. A material erosion of employee morale could have a material adverse effect on our business, particularly if the Chapter 11 Cases are protracted.
The Company's business could suffer from the Chapter 11 Cases
The Chapter 11 Cases may negatively impact the operations of the Company. While the potential negative impact cannot be predicted or quantified, risks include:
The Company's businesses could suffer from a long and protracted restructuring
The Company's future results are dependent upon the successful filing, confirmation and implementation of plans of reorganization for the 2010 Track Debtors. Failure to complete the reorganization process in a timely manner could adversely affect the Company's operating results, including its relationships with tenants and suppliers. If a liquidation or protracted reorganization were to occur, there is a significant risk that the value of the Company's enterprise would be substantially eroded to the detriment of all stakeholders.
Furthermore, the Company cannot predict the ultimate amount of all settlement terms for the Debtors' liabilities that will be subject to a plan of reorganization. Even once a plan of reorganization is implemented, the Company's operating results may be adversely affected by the possible reluctance of prospective lenders, tenants, and suppliers to do business with a company that recently emerged from bankruptcy proceedings.
Our ability to emerge from the Chapter 11 Cases will depend on obtaining sufficient exit financing or capital or the pursuit of a change of control transaction
For the TopCo Plan of Reorganization to be effective, we will need to obtain and demonstrate the sufficiency of exit financing or capital to fund the remaining emergence costs of the Track 1 Debtors and the emergence costs of the 2010 Track Debtors. In addition to funding ongoing operational needs, exit financing or capital must be sufficient to fund certain emergence costs of the Track 1 Debtors as well as the TopCo Debtors to the extent existing cash reserves or operating cash flows are not sufficient. We cannot presently determine the final terms of such financing, nor can there be any assurances of our success in obtaining it. In addition to pursuing traditional and non-traditional forms of exit financing or capital, we also intend to explore potential merger and acquisition or other change of control transactions with financial and strategic investors. Failure to obtain exit financing or capital or conclude a change of control transaction may further delay the emergence of the 2010 Track Debtors from bankruptcy protection.
11
LIQUIDITY RISKS
We may not have sufficient cash to maintain our operations and fund our emergence costs
As discussed above under "Bankruptcy Risks," our DIP Credit Facility may not provide sufficient liquidity during the remaining Chapter 11 Cases and exit financing or capital may not be sufficient to support our operations post-emergence. Our operating cash flows and exit financing or capital may not be sufficient to pay our debt as it comes due, interest on our debt, emergence costs and other operating expenses. We face significantly higher operating expenses due in part to payments to our financial and legal advisors, as well as fees and other amounts payable to our lenders in connection with loan restructurings. Because we have limited short-term sources of cash, in the event such sources are insufficient to fund our needs, we may be unable to successfully emerge from bankruptcy or implement our plan of reorganization.
We may be subject to claims that will not be discharged in the Chapter 11 Cases
The Bankruptcy Code provides that the confirmation of a plan of reorganization discharges a debtor from substantially all debts arising prior to confirmation and specified debts arising afterwards. With few exceptions, all claims that arose prior to the Petition Date and before confirmation of the plan of reorganization (i) would be subject to compromise and/or treatment under the plan of reorganization or (ii) would be discharged in accordance with the Bankruptcy Code and the terms of the plan of reorganization. We currently do not believe that the aggregate amount of claims that will not be subject to treatment under the plan of reorganization or not discharged, will be material, although such aggregate amount are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity position.
We may not be able to raise capital through the sale of properties
Our ability to sell our properties to raise capital is limited. The retail economic climate negatively affects the value of our properties and therefore reduces our ability to sell these properties on acceptable terms. Our ability to sell our properties is also negatively affected by the weakness of the credit markets, which increases the cost and difficulty for potential purchasers to acquire financing, as well as by the illiquid nature of real estate. Finally, our Chapter 11 Cases may encourage potential purchasers to offer less attractive terms for our properties and may delay any potential sale transaction and any such transaction contemplated by a Debtor must be approved by the Bankruptcy Court. See "Business Risks" for a further discussion of the effects of the retail economic climate on our properties, as well as the illiquid nature of our investments in our properties.
We have a low tax basis in many of our properties relative to the fair market value of such properties. As a result of this low tax basis, we could recognize a substantial taxable gain upon the sale of such properties, which would impact the amount of net proceeds we would retain from any such sales as a result of the REIT distribution requirements.
We may not be able to refinance, extend or repay our portion of substantial indebtedness at our Unconsolidated Properties, which could have a material adverse affect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and common stock price
Our Unconsolidated Properties have a substantial amount of debt which they not be able to extend, refinance or repay. As of December 31, 2009, our share of indebtedness secured by our Unconsolidated Properties was $3.12 billion (Note 5). There can be no assurance that our Unconsolidated Properties will be able to refinance or extend their debt on acceptable terms or otherwise. The ability to refinance this debt is negatively affected by the current condition of the credit markets, which have significantly reduced the levels of capacity of commercial lending. The ability to successfully refinance or extend this debt may also be negatively affected by our bankruptcy
12
proceedings as well as the real or perceived decline in the value of our Unconsolidated Properties based on general and retail economic conditions, as discussed further below.
Our substantial indebtedness adversely affects our financial health and operating flexibility
Our indebtedness could have important consequences to us and the value of our common stock, including:
Refinanced debt contains restrictions and less attractive covenants
We have refinanced $10.65 billion of secured mortgage debt since the Petition Date. The terms of certain debt require us to satisfy certain customary affirmative and negative covenants and to meet financial ratios and tests, including ratios and tests based on leverage, interest coverage and net worth. The covenants and other restrictions under our debt agreements affect, among other things, our ability to:
13
Due to the current lending environment, our bankruptcy proceedings, our financial condition and general economic factors, this refinanced debt contains certain terms which are less attractive than the terms contained in the debt being refinanced. Such terms include more restrictive operational and financial covenants, restrictions on the distribution of cash flows from properties serving as collateral for the debt and higher fees and, in certain instances, higher interest rates. These fees and cash flow restrictions may affect our ability to fund our on-going operations from our operating cash flows and we may be significantly limited in our operating and financial flexibility and thus may be limited in our ability to respond to changes in our business or competitive activities.
COMMON STOCK RISKS
Trading in our securities during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases is highly speculative and poses substantial risks. It is possible our common stock will be cancelled and that holders of such common stock will not receive any distribution with respect to, or be able to recover any portion of, their investments
It is not possible to determine if the TopCo Plan of Reorganization will allow for distributions with respect to our common stock and other outstanding equity interests. It is possible that these equity interests will be cancelled and extinguished upon the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and the holders thereof would not be entitled to receive, and would not receive or retain, any property or interest in property on account of such equity interests. In the event of a cancellation of these equity interests, amounts invested by such holders in our outstanding equity securities will not be recoverable. Consequently, our currently outstanding common stock would have no value. Trading prices for our common stock are very volatile and may bear little or no relationship to the actual recovery, if any, by the holders of such securities in the Chapter 11 Cases. Accordingly, we urge that extreme caution be exercised with respect to existing and future investments in our equity securities and any of our other securities.
Our common stock was delisted from the Exchange and is not listed on any other national securities exchange
On April 17, 2009, the Company's common stock began trading in the over the counter market in the Pink Sheets under the symbol GGWPQ. The last day that the Company's common stock traded on the Exchange was April 16, 2009.
We can provide no assurance that we will be able to re-list our common stock on a national securities exchange or that the stock will continue being traded on the Pink Sheets. The trading of our common stock on the Pink Sheets rather than the Exchange may negatively impact the trading price of our common stock and the levels of liquidity available to our stockholders. In addition, securities that trade on the Pink Sheets are not eligible for margin loans and make our common stock subject to the provisions of Rule 15g-9 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), commonly referred to as the "penny stock rule."
Risks of trading in an over the counter market
Securities traded in the over-the-counter market generally have significantly less liquidity than securities traded on a national securities exchange, through factors such as a reduction in the number of investors that will consider investing in the securities, the number of market makers in the securities, reduction in securities analyst and news media coverage and lower market prices than might otherwise be obtained. As a result, holders of shares of our common stock may find it difficult to resell their shares at prices quoted in the market or at all. Furthermore, because of the limited market and generally low volume of trading in our common stock that could occur, the share price of our common stock could be more likely to be affected by broad market fluctuations, general market conditions, fluctuations in our operating results, changes in the markets perception of our business, and announcements made by us, our competitors or parties with whom we have business relationships. With
14
respect to the Company, in some cases, we may be subject to additional compliance requirements under applicable state laws in the issuance of our securities. The lack of liquidity in our common stock may also make it difficult for us to issue additional securities for financing or other purposes, or to otherwise arrange for any financing we may need in the future.
If holders of common stock recover any portion of their investment they may be subject to substantial dilution as a result of future issuances of our common stock
We may issue common stock to satisfy creditors of the TopCo Debtors and the TopCo Plan of Reorganization may include an equity-based incentive compensation plan. The amount and dilutive effect of any such issuance can not be determined at this time.
We may also issue shares of our common stock to meet our obligations under the Contingent Stock Agreement under which we assumed the obligations of TRC to the beneficiaries thereunder (the "CSA"). In addition, we have reserved a number of shares of common stock for issuance under our restricted stock and option plans for employees and directors and in connection with certain other obligations, including convertible debt and these shares will be available for sale from time to time. Finally, we issued approximately 4.9 million shares of common stock as a taxable stock dividend in order to satisfy the requirements for qualification of a REIT and we currently expect to continue to issue taxable stock dividends to satisfy the requirements for REIT qualification.
BUSINESS RISKS
Economic conditions, especially in the retail sector, may have an adverse affect on our revenues and available cash
General and retail economic conditions continue to be weak, and we do not expect a near term return to the economic conditions that prevailed in 2007. High unemployment, weak income growth, tight credit and the need to pay down existing debt are expected to continue to negatively impact consumer spending. Given these economic conditions, we believe there is a significant risk that the sales of stores operating in our centers will either not improve, or will improve slowly which will have the following negative effect on our operations:
Ability to lease and collect rent. Our results of operations depend on our ability to continue to lease space in our properties on economically favorable terms. If the sales of certain stores operating in our centers do not improve sufficiently, tenants might be unable to pay their existing minimum rents or expense recovery charges, since these rents and charges would represent a higher percentage of their sales. If our tenants' sales do not improve, new tenants would be less likely to be willing to pay minimum rents as high as they would otherwise pay. In addition, as substantially all of our income is derived from rentals of real property, our income and cash available for debt service, operations or distribution to our stockholders would be adversely affected if a significant number of tenants were unable to meet their obligations to us.
Bankruptcy or store closures of tenants. Our leases generally do not contain provisions designed to ensure the creditworthiness of the tenant, and a number of companies in the retail industry, including some of our tenants, have declared bankruptcy or voluntarily closed certain of their stores in recent years. The bankruptcy or closure of a major tenant, particularly an Anchor, may have a material adverse effect on the retail properties affected and the income produced by these properties and may make it substantially more difficult to lease the remainder of the affected retail properties. As a result, the bankruptcy or closure of a major tenant and potential additional closures as a result of co-tenancy requirements could result in a lower level of revenues and cash available.
Department store productivity. Department store consolidations, as well as declining sales productivity in certain instances, are resulting in the closure of existing department stores and we may
15
be unable to re-lease this area or to re-lease it on comparable or more favorable terms. Other tenants may be entitled to modify the terms of their existing leases, including those pertaining to rent payment, in the event of such closures. Additionally, department store closures could result in decreased customer traffic which could lead to decreased sales at other stores.
Ability to attract new tenants. The factors described above not only affect our current tenants and operations, but also affect our ability to attract new tenants.
It may be difficult to buy and sell real estate quickly, and transfer restrictions apply to some of our properties
Equity real estate investments are relatively illiquid, and this characteristic tends to limit our ability to vary our portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions. In addition, significant expenditures associated with each equity investment, such as mortgage payments, real estate taxes and maintenance costs, are generally not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in income from the investment. If income from a property declines while the related expenses do not decline, our income and cash available to us would be adversely affected. If it becomes necessary or desirable for us to dispose of one or more of the mortgaged properties, we might not be able to obtain a release of the lien on the mortgaged property without payment of the associated debt. The foreclosure of a mortgage on a property or inability to sell a property could adversely affect the level of cash available to us.
If we have a change in control, as defined in section 382 of the Code, our ability to use our net operating loss and interest expense carryforwards to offset future cash taxes may be reduced or eliminated. The significant stock activity we have recently experienced and the possibility of issuing additional equity to address our liquidity needs increases the risk of this provision impacting us in the future.
We invest primarily in regional shopping centers and other properties, which are subject to a number of significant risks which are beyond our control
Real property investments are subject to varying degrees of risk that may affect the ability of our properties to generate sufficient revenues. A number of factors may decrease the income generated by a retail property, including:
Our Master Planned Communities are also affected by some of the above factors, as well as the significant weakening of the housing market which began in 2007 and is expected to continue.
If we are unable to generate sufficient revenue from our properties, including those held by joint ventures, we will be unable to meet operating and other expenses, including debt service, lease payments, capital expenditures and tenant improvements, and to make distributions from our joint ventures and then, in turn, to our stockholders.
16
We develop and expand properties, and this activity is subject to various risks
Although we have significantly reduced our development and expansion activities, certain development and expansion projects will be undertaken. In connection with any development or expansion, we will be subject to various risks, including the following:
If a development project is unsuccessful, our investment in the project may not be fully recoverable from future operations or sale.
We may incur costs to comply with environmental laws
Under various federal, state or local laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be required to investigate and clean up hazardous or toxic substances released at a property, and may be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage or personal injuries and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred by the parties in connection with the contamination. These laws often impose liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the release of the hazardous or toxic substances. The presence of contamination or the failure to remediate contamination may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell or lease real estate or to borrow using the real estate as collateral. Other federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations require abatement or removal of asbestos-containing materials in the event of demolition or certain renovations or remodeling, the cost of which may be substantial for some of our redevelopments, and also govern emissions of and exposure to asbestos fibers in the air. Federal and state laws also regulate the operation and removal of underground storage tanks. In connection with the ownership, operation and management of our properties, we could be held liable for the costs of remedial action with respect to these regulated substances or tanks or related claims.
Our properties have been subjected to varying degrees of environmental assessment at various times. However, the identification of new areas of contamination, a change in the extent or known scope of contamination or changes in cleanup requirements could result in significant costs to us.
We are in a competitive business
There are numerous shopping facilities that compete with our properties in attracting retailers to lease space. Our Chapter 11 Cases may impair the desirability and competitiveness of our shopping facilities. In addition, retailers at our properties face continued competition from retailers at other regional shopping centers, including outlet malls and other discount shopping centers, discount shopping clubs, catalog companies, internet sales and telemarketing. Competition of this type could adversely affect our revenues and cash available for repayment of our debt and distribution to our stockholders.
17
We compete with other major real estate investors with significant capital for attractive investment opportunities. These competitors include other REITs, investment banking firms and private institutional investors.
Some of our properties are subject to potential natural or other disasters
A number of our properties are located in areas which are subject to natural disasters. For example, two of our properties, located in the New Orleans area, suffered major hurricane and/or vandalism damage in 2005. It is uncertain as to whether the New Orleans area will recover to its prior economic strength. Certain of our properties are located in California or in other areas with higher risk of earthquakes. In addition, many of our properties are located in coastal regions, and would therefore be affected by any future increases in sea levels or in the frequency or severity of hurricanes and tropical storms, whether such increases are caused by global climate changes or other factors.
Possible terrorist activity or other acts of violence could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations
Future terrorist attacks in the United States, and other acts of violence, including terrorism or war, might result in declining economic activity, which could harm the demand for goods and services offered by our tenants and the value of our properties and might adversely affect the value of an investment in our securities. A decrease in retail demand could make it difficult for us to renew or release our properties at lease rates equal to or above historical rates. Terrorist activities or violence also could directly affect the value of our properties through damage, destruction or loss, and the availability of insurance for such acts, or of insurance generally, might be lower, or cost more, which could increase our operating expenses and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. To the extent that our tenants are affected by future attacks, their businesses similarly could be adversely affected, including their ability to continue to meet obligations under their existing leases. These acts might erode business and consumer confidence and spending, and might result in increased volatility in national and international financial markets and economies. Any one of these events might decrease demand for real estate, decrease or delay the occupancy of our new or redeveloped properties, and limit our access to capital or increase our cost of raising capital.
Some potential losses are not insured
We carry comprehensive liability, fire, flood, earthquake, terrorism, extended coverage and rental loss insurance on all of our properties. We believe the policy specifications and insured limits of these policies are adequate and appropriate. There are, however, some types of losses, including lease and other contract claims, which generally are not insured. If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occurs, we could lose all or a portion of the capital we have invested in a property, as well as the anticipated future revenue from the property. If this happens, we might nevertheless remain obligated for any mortgage debt or other financial obligations related to the property.
Inflation may adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations
Should inflation increase in the future, we may experience any or all of the following:
18
Inflation also poses a potential threat to us due to the probability of future increases in interest rates. Such increases would adversely impact us due to our outstanding variable-rate debt as well as result in higher interest rates on new fixed-rate debt.
We have certain ownership interests outside the United States which may increase in relative significance over time
We hold interests in joint venture properties in Brazil, Turkey and Costa Rica. International development and ownership activities carry additional risks that are different from those we face with our domestic properties and operations. These additional risks include:
Although our international activities currently are a relatively small portion of our business (international properties represented less than approximately one percent of the NOI of all of our properties in 2009), to the extent that we expand our international activities, these additional risks could increase in significance and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
ORGANIZATIONAL RISKS
Payments by our direct and indirect subsidiaries of dividends and distributions to us may be adversely affected by prior payments to these subsidiaries' creditors and preferred security holders
Substantially all of our assets are owned through our general partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, including The Rouse Company LP ("TRCLP"). The Operating Partnership holds substantially all of its properties and assets through subsidiaries, including subsidiary partnerships, limited liability companies and corporations that have elected to be taxed as REITs. The Operating Partnership therefore derives substantially all of its cash flow from cash distributions to it by its subsidiaries, and we, in turn, derive substantially all of our cash flow from cash distributions to us by the Operating Partnership. The creditors and preferred security holders, if any, of each of our direct and indirect subsidiaries are entitled to payment of that subsidiary's obligations to them, when due and payable, before that subsidiary may make distributions to us. Thus, the Operating Partnership's ability to make distributions to its partners, including us, depends on its subsidiaries' ability first to satisfy obligations to their creditors and preferred security holders, if any, and then to make distributions to the Operating Partnership. Similarly, our ability to pay dividends to holders of our common stock depends on the Operating Partnership's ability first to satisfy its obligations to its creditors and preferred security holders and then to make distributions to us.
In addition, we will have the right to participate in any distribution of the assets of any of our direct or indirect subsidiaries upon the liquidation, reorganization or insolvency of the subsidiary only after the claims of the creditors, including trade creditors, and preferred security holders, if any, of the subsidiary are satisfied. Our common stockholders, in turn, will have the right to participate in any
19
distribution of our assets upon the liquidation, reorganization or insolvency of us only after the claims of our creditors, including trade creditors, and preferred security holders, if any, are satisfied.
We share control of some of our properties with other investors and may have conflicts of interest with those investors
While we generally make all operating decisions for the Unconsolidated Properties, we are required to make other decisions with the other investors who have interests in the relevant property or properties. For example, the approval of certain of the other investors is required with respect to operating budgets and refinancing, encumbering, expanding or selling any of these properties, as well as to bankruptcy decisions related to the Unconsolidated Properties and related joint ventures. We might not have the same interests as the other investors in relation to these transactions. Accordingly, we might not be able to favorably resolve any of these issues, or we might have to provide financial or other inducement to the other investors to obtain a favorable resolution.
In addition, various restrictive provisions and rights apply to sales or transfers of interests in our jointly owned properties. These may work to our disadvantage because, among other things, we might be required to make decisions about buying or selling interests in a property or properties at a time that is disadvantageous to us.
Bankruptcy of joint venture partners could impose delays and costs on us with respect to the jointly owned retail properties
The bankruptcy of one of the other investors in any of our jointly owned shopping centers could materially and adversely affect the relevant property or properties. Under the bankruptcy laws, we would be precluded from taking some actions affecting the estate of the other investor without prior approval of the bankruptcy court, which would, in most cases, entail prior notice to other parties and a hearing in the bankruptcy court. At a minimum, the requirement to obtain court approval may delay the actions we would or might want to take. If the relevant joint venture through which we have invested in a property has incurred recourse obligations, the discharge in bankruptcy of one of the other investors might result in our ultimate liability for a greater portion of those obligations than we would otherwise bear.
We are impacted by tax-related obligations to some of our partners
We own properties through partnerships which have arrangements in place that protect the deferred tax situation of our existing third party limited partners. Violation of these arrangements could impose costs on us. As a result, we may be restricted with respect to decisions such as financing, encumbering, expanding or selling these properties.
Several of our joint venture partners are tax-exempt. As such, they are taxable to the extent of their share of unrelated business taxable income generated from these properties. As the managing partner in these joint ventures, we have obligations to avoid the creation of unrelated business taxable income at these properties. As a result, we may be restricted with respect to decisions such as financing and revenue generation with respect to these properties.
We may not maintain our status as a REIT
One of the requirements of the Code for a REIT generally is that it distribute or pay tax on 100% of its capital gains and distribute at least 90% of its ordinary taxable income to its stockholders. We may not have sufficient liquidity to meet these distribution requirements.
20
If, with respect to any taxable year, we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT, we would not be allowed to deduct distributions to stockholders in computing our taxable income and federal income tax. The corporate level income tax, including any applicable alternative minimum tax, would apply to our taxable income at regular corporate rates. As a result, the amount available for distribution to stockholders would be reduced for the year or years involved, and we would no longer be required to make distributions. In addition, unless we were entitled to relief under the relevant statutory provisions, we would be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years.
An ownership limit and certain anti-takeover defenses and applicable law may hinder any attempt to acquire us
The ownership limit. Generally, for us to maintain our qualification as a REIT under the Code, not more than 50% in value of the outstanding shares of our capital stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals at any time during the last half of our taxable year. The Code defines "individuals" for purposes of the requirement described in the preceding sentence to include some types of entities. In general, under our current certificate of incorporation, no person other than Martin Bucksbaum (deceased), Matthew Bucksbaum, their families and related trusts and entities, including M.B. Capital Partners III, may own more than 7.5% of the value of our outstanding capital stock. However, our certificate of incorporation also permits our company to exempt a person from the 7.5% ownership limit upon the satisfaction of certain conditions which are described in our certificate of incorporation.
Selected provisions of our charter documents. Our board of directors is divided into three classes of directors. Directors of each class are chosen for three-year staggered terms. Staggered terms of directors may reduce the possibility of a tender offer or an attempt to change control of our company, even though a tender offer or change in control might be in the best interest of our stockholders. Our charter authorizes the board of directors:
Stockholder rights plan. We have a stockholder rights plan which will impact a potential acquirer unless the acquirer negotiates with our board of directors and the board of directors approves the transaction.
Selected provisions of Delaware law. We are a Delaware corporation, and Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law applies to us. In general, Section 203 prevents an "interested stockholder," as defined in the next sentence, from engaging in a "business combination," as defined in the statute, with us for three years following the date that person becomes an interested stockholder unless one or more of the following occurs:
21
stock plans that do not provide employees with the right to determine confidentially whether shares held under the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer
The statute defines "interested stockholder" to mean generally any person that is the owner of 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock or is an affiliate or associate of us and was the owner of 15% or more of our outstanding voting stock at any time within the three-year period immediately before the date of determination.
Each item discussed above may delay, deter or prevent a change in control of our Company, even if a proposed transaction is at a premium over the then current market price for our common stock. Further, these provisions may apply in instances where some stockholders consider a transaction beneficial to them. As a result, our stock price may be negatively affected by these provisions.
FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
We may make forward-looking statements in this Annual Report and in other reports which we file with the SEC or with the Bankruptcy Court. In addition, our senior management might make forward-looking statements orally to analysts, investors, the media and others.
Forward-looking statements include:
In this Annual Report, for example, we make forward-looking statements discussing our expectations about:
Forward-looking statements discuss matters that are not historical facts. Because they discuss future events or conditions, forward-looking statements often include words such as "anticipate,"
22
"believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "project," "target," "can," "could," "may," "should," "will," "would" or similar expressions. Forward-looking statements should not be unduly relied upon. They give our expectations about the future and are not guarantees. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and we might not update them to reflect changes that occur after the date they are made.
There are several factors, many beyond our control, which could cause results to differ significantly from our expectations. Factors such as our bankruptcy proceedings, credit, market, operational, liquidity, interest rate and other risks are described elsewhere in this Annual Report. Any factor described in this Annual Report could by itself, or together with one or more other factors, adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. There are also other factors that we have not described in this Annual Report that could cause results to differ from our expectations.
ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS
None.
Our investment in real estate as of December 31, 2009 consisted of our interests in the properties in our Retail and Other and Master Planned Communities segments. We generally own the land underlying the properties in our Retail and Other segment. However, at certain of the Retail and Other segment properties, all or part of the underlying land is owned by a third party that leases the land to us pursuant to a long-term ground lease. The leases generally contain various purchase options and typically provide us with a right of first refusal in the event of a proposed sale of the property by the landlord. We own the land in the Master Planned Community Segment. Information regarding encumbrances on the Retail and Other segment properties and Master Planned Communities properties is included in Schedule III of this Annual Report.
The following tables set forth certain information regarding the Consolidated Properties and the Unconsolidated Properties in our Retail Portfolio as of December 31, 2009. These tables do not reflect subsequent activity in 2010. Anchors include all department stores or other large retail stores with GLA (measured in square feet) greater than 30,000 square feet. Significant tenants includes certain large retail stores that are approximately 10,000 square feet. Combined occupancy for Consolidated Properties and Unconsolidated Properties as of December 31, 2009 was 91.6%.

Anchors
Anchors have traditionally been a major component of a regional shopping center. Anchors are frequently department stores whose merchandise appeals to a broad range of shoppers. Anchors generally either own their stores, the land under them and adjacent parking areas, or enter into long-term leases at rates that are generally lower than the rents charged to Mall Store tenants. We also typically enter into long-term reciprocal agreements with Anchors that provide for, among other things, mall and Anchor operating covenants and Anchor expense participation. The centers in the Retail Portfolio receive a smaller percentage of their operating income from Anchors than from stores (other than Anchors) that are typically specialty retailers who lease space in the structure including, or attached to, the primary complex of buildings that comprise a shopping center. While the market share of many traditional department store Anchors has been declining, strong Anchors continue to play an important role in maintaining customer traffic and making the centers in the Retail Portfolio desirable locations for Mall Store tenants.
The following table indicates the parent company of certain Anchors and sets forth the number of stores and square feet owned or leased by each Anchor in the Retail Portfolio (excluding properties owned by our Brazil and Turkey Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates) as of December 31, 2009.

Lease Expirations
The GLA of freestanding retail stores in locations that are not attached to the primary complex of buildings that comprise a shopping center is defined as ("Freestanding GLA") and "Mall GLA" is the gross leaseable retail space, excluding Anchors and Freestanding GLA, measured in square feet. At December 31, 2009, our Mall GLA and our Freestanding GLA aggregated 57.6 million square feet for our consolidated retail properties and 19.9 million square feet for our unconsolidated retail properties. The following table indicates various lease expiration information related to the consolidated minimum rent for our currently existing retail leases at December 31, 2009. See Note 2 for our accounting policies for revenue recognition from our tenant leases and Note 8 for the future minimum rentals of our operating leases.

Real Estate Property Net Operating Income (NOI")
The Company believes that NOI is a useful supplemental measure of the Company's operating performance. The Company defines NOI as operating revenues (rental income, land sales, tenant recoveries and other income) less property and related expenses (real estate taxes, land sales operating costs, repairs and maintenance, marketing and other property expenses). As with FFO described below, NOI has been reflected on a consolidated and unconsolidated basis (at the Company's ownership share). Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, the Company's NOI may not be comparable to other REITs.
Because NOI excludes general and administrative expenses, interest expense, retail investment property impairment or other non-recoverable development costs, depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions, allocations to non-controlling interests, reorganization items, and extraordinary items, it provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating commercial real estate properties and the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, land values (with respect to the Master Planned Communities) and operating costs. This measure thereby provides an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating or net income attributable to controlling interests. The Company uses NOI to evaluate its operating performance on a
35
property-by-property basis because NOI allows the Company to evaluate the impact that factors such as lease structure, lease rates and tenant base, which vary by property, have on the Company's operating results, gross margins and investment returns.
In addition, management believes that NOI provides useful information to the investment community about the Company's operating performance. However, due to the exclusions noted above, NOI should only be used as an alternative measure of the Company's financial performance. For reference, and as an aid in understanding management's computation of NOI, a reconciliation of NOI to consolidated operating income as computed in accordance with GAAP has been presented.

Funds From Operations
Consistent with real estate industry and investment community practices, we use FFO as a supplemental measure of our operating performance. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains or losses from cumulative effects of accounting changes, extraordinary items and sales of operating rental properties, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for the preceding items in our unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.
We consider FFO a useful supplemental measure for equity REITs and a complement to GAAP measures because it facilitates an understanding of the operating performance of our properties. FFO does not include real estate depreciation and amortization required by GAAP since these amounts are computed to allocate the cost of a property over its useful life. Since values for well-maintained real estate assets have historically increased or decreased based upon prevailing market conditions, we believe that FFO provides investors with a clearer view of our operating performance, particularly with respect to our rental properties.
In order to provide a better understanding of the relationship between FFO and net income available to common stockholders, a reconciliation of FFO to net income available to common stockholders has been provided. FFO does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash requirements.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
All references to numbered Notes are to specific footnotes to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Annual Report and which descriptions are incorporated into the applicable response by reference. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with such Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes. Capitalized terms used, but not defined, in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A") have the same meanings as in such Notes.
OverviewIntroduction
The Company is currently operating as a Debtor in Possession under Chapter 11.
We are the owner or manager of over 200 regional shopping malls in 43 states and the owner of five master planned communities, of which we operate in two reportable business segments: Retail and Other and Master Planned Communities.
From the third quarter of 2008 through the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases and first half of 2009, liquidity was our primary issue. Unable to refinance, extend or otherwise restructure our past due debt due to the collapse of the credit markets, we voluntarily chose to restructure our debt under court supervision. A total of 388 Debtors with approximately $21.83 billion of debt filed for Chapter 11 protection.
The Chapter 11 Cases created the protections necessary for the Debtors to develop and execute plans of reorganization to restructure the Debtors and extend mortgage maturities, reduce corporate debt and overall leverage and establish a sustainable long-term capital structure. We have a long-term business plan necessary to effect the objectives we sought to achieve through the Chapter 11 process. The business plan contemplates the continued operation of retail shopping centers, divestiture of non-core assets and businesses and certain non-performing retail assets, and select development projects. We have pursued a deliberate two-stage strategy. The first stage entails the restructuring of our property-level secured mortgage debt. This second stage is the restructuring of the debt of the TopCo Debtors and our public equity.
37
As of March 1, 2010, 205 Track 1 Debtors owning 108 properties with $10.65 billion of secured mortgage debt have restructured such debt and emerged from bankruptcy. The Track 1 Plans generally provide, in exchange for payment of certain extension fees and cure of previously unpaid amounts due on the applicable mortgage loans (primarily, principal amortization otherwise scheduled to have been paid since the Petition Date), the extension of the secured mortgage loans at previously existing non-default interest rates. As a result of the extensions, the $10.65 billion of secured mortgage debt of the Track 1 Debtors that have emerged as of March 1, 2010 matures at various dates after January 1, 2014. In addition, the Track 1 Plans provide for the payment in full of all undisputed claims of creditors of the Track 1 Debtors.
We have identified thirteen of the properties of the Track 1 Debtors with $751.7 million of secured mortgage debt as non-performing retail assets (the "Special Consideration Properties"). Pursuant to the terms of the agreements with the lenders for these properties, the Debtors have until two days following emergence of the TopCo Debtors to determine whether the collateral property for these loans should be deeded to the respective lender or the property should be retained with further modified loan terms. Prior to emergence of the TopCo Debtors, all cash produced by the property is under the control of respective lenders and we are required to pay any operating expense shortfall. In addition, prior to emergence of the TopCo Debtors, the respective lender can change the manager of the property or put the property in receivership and GGP has the right to deed the property to the lender, but no such actions have yet occurred.
We have also identified three properties (Silver City, Montclair and Highland) owned by our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates with approximately $457.4 million of secured mortgage debt, of which our share is $230.1 million, as non-performing assets. With respect to each of the properties owned by such Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates, all cash produced by such properties are under the control of the applicable lender. In the event we are unable to satisfactorily modify the terms of each of the loans associated with these properties, the collateral property for any such loan we are unable to satisfactorily restructure may be deeded to the respective lender.
We are continuing to pursue consensual restructurings for the Remaining Secured Debtors and we will seek Bankruptcy Court approval of non-consensual restructuring plans for these loans in the event we are unable to reach an agreement with these lenders.
While completion of the restructurings of the property-level debt remains a priority, we believe that we have achieved substantial progress with respect to the first phase of our restructuring strategy and are now in the midst of the second phaseresolving the TopCo Debtors' capital structure. Resolution of the TopCo capital structure involves reducing corporate debt and overall leverage and establishing a long-term capital structure. Our long-term business plan currently projects that we will need approximately $1.5 billion of new capital to emerge from bankruptcy and restructure on a stand alone basis. We have commenced a process to explore all potential alternatives for emergence, including an evaluation of the financing sources for a stand alone restructuring, as well as potential merger and acquisition or other change of control transactions with financial and strategic investors.
On February 24, 2010, we reached an agreement in principle with Brookfield Asset Management Inc. ("Brookfield") pursuant to which GGP would be divided into two companies and Brookfield would invest $2.5 billion in cash in GGP and up to $125 million in cash in the new second company, General Growth Opportunities ("GGO"). Terms of the agreement in principle provide that, in exchange for its investment, Brookfield would acquire approximately thirty percent of the common stock of GGP and up to approximately sixteen percent of the total equity of GGO and have the right to nominate three directors to each of the boards of GGP and GGO. Terms of the agreement in principle also provide that the Company will raise an additional $2.5 billion in cash through a combination of new corporate level indebtedness and the consummation of certain asset sales and will raise up to an additional $3.3 billion in equity capital through a separate capital market equity raise process (coupled with
38
additional asset sales, if appropriate). In lieu of the receipt of any fees that would be customary in similar transactions, the agreement in principle contemplates that GGP will use its reasonable best efforts to obtain entry of a Bankruptcy Court order that provides Brookfield with seven-year warrants to purchase 60 million shares of existing GGP common stock at an exercise price of $15 per share, which warrants will be replaced with warrants to purchase equity of GGO and restructured GGP following the consummation of the contemplated transactions.
The agreement in principle, including the warrants, is subject to definitive documentation, approval of the Bankruptcy Court and higher and better offers pursuant to procedures we will ask the Bankruptcy Court to approve. There is no assurance that the proposed investment, warrants or plan will be approved by the Bankruptcy Court or consummated. The Company is focused on continued progress in the Chapter 11 Cases and a comprehensive capital raise process, and will continue, notwithstanding the agreement in principle, to consider all alternatives to maximize value for all of the Company's stakeholders.
We have filed a motion to extend the exclusivity period for us to file a plan until August 26, 2010 and to solicit acceptances of such plan to October 26, 2010. Our motion is currently scheduled to be heard by the Bankruptcy Court on March 3, 2010. Pending entry on order on our motion, the Bankruptcy Court has entered a bridge order extending the exclusivity period until the date that is 7 days following the date on which an order on our extension motion is entered. If an order is entered by the Bankruptcy Court granting our extension motion, it will supersede the bridge order. If the Bankruptcy Court denies our extension motion, the Company will have 7 days following the entry of an order related to the March 3 hearing before exclusivity expires. If we do not file a plan of reorganization for the 2010 Track Debtors prior to the lapse of the exclusivity period, any party in interest would be able to file a plan of reorganization for any of the 2010 Track Debtors.
As a result of the automatic stay of most actions against a debtor's estate, the resulting suspension of our obligation to pay certain pre-petition liabilities and proceeds from the DIP Facility, as of December 31, 2009, we had approximately $654.4 million of cash. Our liquidity is dependent upon cash flow from operations, which were affected by the severe weakening of the economy in 2009. Retail sales hit their low point in the first quarter of 2009 and gradually improved during the remainder of 2009. However, retail market conditions have not returned to the levels of 2007 and, while we believe that they have stabilized and should continue to show improvement, they continue to impact our ability to generate and increase Retail and Other revenues. In addition, the continued weak housing market has negatively affected our ability to generate income through the sale of residential land in our Master Planned Communities.
As part of our business planning process we reviewed our development and redevelopment projects. At this time we currently plan to complete projects that are already substantially complete and joint venture projects. We also intend to fulfill our other contractual obligations. As a result, we currently expect to complete our expansion and redevelopment projects at Christiana Mall, Fashion Place and Saint Louis Galleria.
Based on the results of our evaluations for impairment of our Consolidated Properties (Note 2), we recognized impairment charges of $410.7 million in 2009 related to our operating retail and other properties, including the Special Consideration Properties and other properties identified as non-performing retail assets. We also recorded impairment charges of $563.8 million in 2009 related to the write-down of various development and pre-development costs that were determined to be non-recoverable as a result of the termination of various development projects. In addition, we recognized impairment charges related to allocated goodwill of $140.6 million in 2009. With respect to our Master Planned Communities Segment we recorded aggregate impairments, in 2009 of $108.7 million as our assumed future pattern in sales (lots or condominium units) changed due to market conditions. While we do not currently expect additional material impairment charges, we can
39
provide no such assurance that such charges will not occur in future periods. Our tests for impairment at December 31, 2009 were based on the most current information available to us (including our draft plans of reorganization), and if the conditions mentioned above deteriorate, or if our plans regarding our assets change, it could result in additional impairment charges in the future.
In the fourth quarter of 2009, we declared a dividend of $0.19 per share of common stock (to satisfy REIT distribution requirements for 2009) payable in a combination of cash and common stock, provided that the cash component of the dividend could not exceed 10% in the aggregate. As a result of stockholder elections, on January 28, 2010, we paid approximately $5.9 million in cash (excluding cash in lieu of fractional shares) and issued approximately 4.9 million shares of GGP common stock.
Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our ability to successfully implement a plan of reorganization for the 2010 Track Debtors, and there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so. We have described such concerns in Note 1 and our independent auditors have included an explanatory paragraph in their report expressing substantial doubt as to our ability to continue as a going concern.
OverviewRetail and Other Segment
Our primary business is owning, managing, leasing and developing retail rental property, primarily shopping centers. The substantial majority of our properties are located in the United States, but we also have certain retail rental property operations and property management activities (through unconsolidated joint ventures) in Brazil and Turkey.
We provide on-site management and other services to substantially all of our properties, including properties which we own through joint venture arrangements and which are unconsolidated for GAAP purposes. Our management operating philosophies and strategies are generally the same whether the properties are consolidated or unconsolidated. As a result, we believe that financial information and operating statistics with respect to all properties, both consolidated and unconsolidated, provide important insights into our operating results.
We seek to increase long-term NOI growth through proactive management and leasing of our retail shopping centers. Our management strategy includes strategic reinvestment in our properties, smartly controlled operating expenses and enhancement of the customer experience. Our leasing strategy is to identify and provide the right stores and the appropriate merchandise for each of our retail operating centers.
We believe that the most significant operating factor affecting incremental cash flow and real estate net operating income is increased rents earned from tenants at our properties. These rental revenue increases are primarily achieved by:

OverviewMaster Planned Communities Segment
Our Master Planned Communities business consists of the development and sale of residential and commercial land, primarily in large-scale projects in and around Columbia, Maryland; Houston, Texas; and Summerlin, Nevada. Residential sales include standard, custom and high density (i.e. condominium, town homes and apartments) parcels. Standard residential lots are designated for detached and attached single- and multi-family homes, ranging from entry-level to luxury homes. At our Summerlin project, we have further designated certain residential parcels as custom lots as their premium price reflects their larger size and other distinguishing features including gated communities, golf course access and higher elevations. Commercial sales include parcels designated for retail, office, services and other for-profit activities, as well as those parcels designated for use by government, schools and other not-for-profit entities.
Revenues are derived primarily from the sale of finished lots, including infrastructure and amenities, and undeveloped property to both residential and commercial developers. Additional revenues are earned through participations with builders in their sales of finished homes to homebuyers. Revenues and net operating income are affected by such factors as the availability to
41
purchasers of construction and permanent mortgage financing at acceptable interest rates, consumer and business confidences, regional economic conditions in the areas surrounding the projects, levels of homebuilder inventory, other factors affecting the homebuilder business and sales of residential properties generally, availability of saleable land for particular uses and our decisions to sell, develop or retain land. For our more mature commitments such as in Columbia, Maryland, we are also creating new design plans to increase density and additional communities.
Our primary strategy in this segment is to develop and sell land in a manner that increases the value of the remaining land to be developed and sold and to provide current cash flows. Our Master Planned Communities projects are owned by taxable REIT subsidiaries and, as a result, are subject to income taxes. Cash requirements to meet federal income tax requirements will increase in future years as we exhaust certain net loss carry forwards and as certain master planned community developments are completed for tax purposes and, as a result, previously deferred taxes must be paid. Such cash requirements could be significant. Additionally, revenues from the sale of land at Summerlin are subject to the Contingent Stock Agreement as more fully described in Note 14.
The pace of land sales for standard residential lots has declined in recent periods in correlation to the decline in the housing market.
As of December 31, 2009, there have been 84 unit sales at our 215 unit Nouvelle at Natick residential condominium project. As the threshold for profit recognition on such sales has not yet been achieved, the $36.4 million of sales proceeds received to date has been deferred and has been reflected within accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities (Note 11). When such thresholds are achieved, the deferred revenue, and the related costs of units sold, will be reflected on the percentage of completion method within our master planned community segment.
Based on the results of our evaluations for impairment (Note 2), we recognized aggregate impairment charges related to our Master Planned Communities of $108.7 million in 2009, $40.3 million in 2008 and $127.6 million in 2007.
Results of Operations
Our revenues are primarily received from tenants in the form of fixed minimum rents, Overage Rent and recoveries of operating expenses. We have presented the following discussion of our results of operations on a segment basis under the proportionate share method. Under the proportionate share method, our share of segment revenues and expenses of the Unconsolidated Properties are combined with the revenues and expenses of the Consolidated Properties. Other revenues are increased by the real estate net operating income of discontinued operations and are reduced by our consolidated non controlling interest ventures" share of real estate net operating income. See Note 16 for additional information including reconciliations of our segment basis results to GAAP basis results.

The $87.7 million decrease in minimum rents in 2009 compared to 2008 was due to a decline in occupancy during the year that resulted in a decrease of approximately $16 million. Also contributing to the decrease is a reduction of temporary tenant base rent revenue of $35.7 million in 2009 compared to 2008 and a reduction of straight-line rent of $11.5 million in 2009 compared to 2008. In addition, minimum rents decreased due to a $12.7 million decrease in termination income, which was $29.1 million in 2009 compared to $41.8 million in 2008. The remaining decreases are primarily the result of decreased occupancy rates and a decrease of $4.9 million due to the sale of three office buildings and two office parks in 2008.
Certain of our leases include both a base rent component and a component which requires tenants to pay amounts related to all, or substantially all, of their share of real estate taxes and certain property operating expenses, including common area maintenance and insurance. The portion of the tenant rent from these leases attributable to real estate tax and operating expense recoveries is recorded as tenant recoveries. The decrease in tenant recoveries is primarily attributable to the decrease in certain property operating expenses. In addition, the decrease was due to an allowance of $15.0 million for tenant audit claims recorded in the fourth quarter of 2009. Also contributing to the decrease is the decline in occupancy and tenants converting to gross leases in 2009.
The decrease in Overage Rent is primarily due to a decrease in comparable tenant sales as a result of the current challenging economic environment impacting many of our tenants throughout the Company Portfolio, particularly at The Grand Canal Shoppes, Fashion Show and Ala Moana Center.
Other revenues include all other property revenues including vending, parking, gains or losses on dispositions of certain property transactions, sponsorship and advertising revenues, less NOI of non-controlling interests. The decrease in other revenues is primarily attributable to dispositions of land parcels at Kendall Town Center that resulted in a $3.9 million loss on sale of land in 2009 and as compared to a $4.3 million gain on sale of land in 2008 as well as a $6.4 million gain on sale of a Woodlands office property in 2008. In addition, the decrease in other revenues is also attributable to reduced occupancy and activity in food and beverage revenue at the Woodlands Hotel and Conference
43
Center in 2009. Finally, the decrease was attributable to lower sponsorship, show and display revenue in 2009.
Real estate taxes increased in 2009 across the Company Portfolio, a portion of which is recoverable from tenants. A portion of the increase is attributable to a decrease in the amount of capitalized real estate taxes due to decreased development activity.
Repairs and maintenance decreased due to decreases in controllable common area and contracted costs, substantially offset by increases related to property preservation and upkeep in 2009.
Marketing expenses decreased in 2009 across the Company Portfolio as the result of continued company-wide efforts to consolidate marketing functions and reduce advertising spending. The largest savings were the result of reductions in advertising costs, contracted services and payroll.
Other property operating costs decreased primarily due to reductions in property specific payroll costs, professional fees, decreased security expense, lower insurance costs, and lower office expenses due to our 2009 implementation of certain cost savings programs.
The provision for doubtful accounts increased across the Company Portfolio in 2009 primarily due to an increase in tenant bankruptcies and increased aging of tenant receivables resulting from the current economic conditions.

The decrease in land sales, land sales operations and NOI in 2009 was the result of a significant reduction in sales volume and lower margins at our Summerlin, Bridgeland and The Woodlands residential communities. These volume decreases were partially offset by the bulk sale in 2009 of the majority of the remaining single family lots in our Fairwood community in Maryland for considerably lower margins than previous Fairwood sales, for which we recorded a $52.8 million provision for impairment in 2009 and the sale of a residential parcel for use in the development of luxury apartments and town homes in our Columbia, Maryland community.
In 2009, we sold 426.4 residential acres compared to 272.5 acres in 2008. We sold 94.8 acres of commercial lots in 2009 compared to 84.6 acres in 2008 as average prices for lots have declined as compared to 2008. As of December 31, 2009, the master planned communities have approximately 17,300 remaining saleable acres.
Finally, we recorded a provision for impairment of $55.9 million in 2009 and $40.3 million in 2008 related to our Nouvelle at Natick condominium project which reflects the change in management's intent and business strategy with respect to marketing and pricing, reduced potential of future price increases and the likelihood that the period to complete unit sales will extend beyond the original project term.

Changes in consolidated tenant rents (which includes minimum rents, tenant recoveries and Overage Rent), land sales, property operating expenses (which includes real estate taxes, repairs and maintenance, marketing, other property operating costs and provision for doubtful accounts) and land sales operations were attributable to the same items discussed above in our segment basis results, excluding those items related to our Unconsolidated Properties. Management and other fees revenues, property management and other costs and general and administrative in the aggregate represent our costs of doing business and are generally not direct property-related costs.
The decrease in management and other fees in 2009 is primarily due to a $15.3 million decrease in development fee income resulting from a significant decline in development activity. In addition, lease fee and specialty lease fee income decreased $4.8 million in 2009.
The decrease in property management and other costs in 2009 is primarily due to a decrease in wages and benefits of $38.5 million. In addition, professional fees, personnel, travel, marketing, office and occupancy costs decreased $18.2 million as the result of cost reduction efforts. These decreases were offset by a $42.4 million reduction in capitalized overhead, which resulted in higher net expenses in 2009, and increased bonuses of $3.7 million.
The decrease in general and administrative expense in 2009 is primarily due to the $15.4 million of additional deemed, non-cash executive compensation expense related to certain senior officer loans (Note 2) that was incurred in 2008 as well as reductions in employment levels in 2009. This decrease was partially offset by increased executive compensation of $4.8 million.
The increase in strategic initiatives in 2009 is primarily due to a $43.1 million of professional fees for restructuring and strategic initiatives incurred through the Petition Date. Such costs are classified as reorganization items subsequent to the Petition Date. In addition, we incurred $24.2 million of additional expense related to the write off of various financing costs on proposed transactions which were not completed in 2009.
See Note 1 for a detail description of the provisions for impairment that we recognized in 2009 and 2008.
45
The decrease in interest expense is primarily due to a decrease in the Credit Facility interest expense compared to 2008 due to a decrease in interest rates. The decrease in interest expense was partially offset by a decrease in the amount of capitalized interest as a result of decreased development spending in 2009.
The benefit from income taxes in 2009 was primarily attributable to tax benefit related to the provisions for impairment of $35.5 million related to our West Kendall development, $52.8 million related to our Fairwood master planned community and $55.9 million related to our Nouvelle at Natick condominium project. The benefit from income taxes was partially offset by an increase in the valuation allowances on our deferred tax assets as a result of Chapter 11.
The decrease in equity in income of Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates is primarily due to a significant decrease in land sales at our Woodlands Partnership joint venture in 2009 compared to 2008. The decrease is also attributable to our share of the impairment provisions recognized in 2009 on certain operating properties and development projects (Note 5) and to the currency conversion related to our international joint ventures in Turkey and Brazil as well as to the overall decline in real estate net operating income from the remaining joint venture interests.
Reorganization items are expense or income items that were incurred or realized by the Debtors as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases. These items include professional fees and similar types of expenses incurred directly related to the bankruptcy filings, loss accruals or gains or losses resulting from activities of the reorganization process and interest earned on cash accumulated by the Debtors. See Note 2Reorganization Items for additional detail.
Year Ended December 31, 2008 and 2007
The Homart I acquisition in July 2007 impacted the consolidated revenue and expense items in our consolidated financial statements, as the acquisition resulted in the consolidation of the operations of the properties acquired. Historically, the Company's share of such operations was reflected as equity in income of Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates. Under the proportionate share method, segment operations also were significantly impacted by the Homart I acquisition, as an additional 50% share of the operations of the properties is included in the Retail and Other segment results after the purchase date of July 2007. Accordingly, discussion of the operational results below for the year ended December 31, 2008 as compared to the year ended December 31, 2007 has been limited to only those elements of operating trends that were not a function of the 2007 Homart I acquisition.

Higher effective rents contributed to the increase in minimum rents in 2008, as a result of significant increases at Ala Moana Center, Otay Ranch Town Center, West Oaks Mall, Tysons Galleria and The Grand Canal Shoppes. Minimum rents also increased as a result of the acquisition of The Shoppes at The Palazzo and the completion of the development at The Shops at Fallen Timbers and the redevelopment at Natick Collection. In addition, termination income increased, which was $41.8 million for 2008 compared to $35.4 million for 2007. Additionally, the increase was partially offset by the reduction in rent due to the sale of three office buildings and two office parks in 2008.
Certain of our leases include both a base rent component and a component which requires tenants to pay amounts related to all, or substantially all, of their share of real estate taxes and certain property operating expenses, including common area maintenance and insurance. The portion of the tenant rent from these leases attributable to real estate tax and operating expense recoveries are recorded as tenant recoveries. The increase in tenant recoveries in 2008 is primarily attributable to the increased GLA in 2008 as a result of the acquisition of The Shoppes at The Palazzo, the completion of the development at The Shops at Fallen Timbers and the redevelopment at Natick Collection.
The decrease in Overage Rent is primarily due to a decrease in comparable tenant sales as a result of the current challenging economic environment that began impacting many of our tenants throughout our portfolio of properties, in late 2008, including The Grand Canal Shoppes, South Street Seaport, Oakbrook Mall and Tysons Galleria. These decreases were partially offset by increases resulting from the acquisition of The Shoppes at The Palazzo and the completion of the redevelopment at Natick Collection.
Other revenues include all other property revenues including vending, parking, sponsorship and advertising revenues, less NOI of non controlling interests. The decrease in other revenues is primarily attributable to The Woodlands Partnership which sold various office buildings and other properties during 2007 resulting in lower recorded amounts of other revenues in 2008 compared to 2007.
Real estate taxes increased in 2008 partially due to increases resulting from the acquisition of The Shoppes at The Palazzo and the completion of the redevelopment at Natick Collection.
47
Repairs and maintenance increased in 2008 primarily due to increased hurricane related repair expenses (a portion of which were recoverable under the terms of our insurance policies) at various properties as well as higher costs for contracted cleaning services, resulting from higher costs of benefits. The acquisition of The Shoppes at The Palazzo and the completion of the development of The Shops at Fallen Timbers and the completion of the redevelopment at Natick Collection also contributed to the increase.
Marketing expenses decreased in 2008 across the Company Portfolio as the result of continued company-wide efforts to consolidate marketing functions and reduce advertising spending. This decrease was partially offset by increased marketing expenditures at The Shoppes at The Palazzo.
The increase in provision for doubtful accounts is primarily due a reduction of the provision in 2007 related to the collection of a portion of the hurricane insurance settlement for Oakwood Center in 2007.

The decrease in land sales and land sales operations and NOI in 2008 was the result of a significant reduction in sales volume and lower achieved margins at our Summerlin, Maryland, Bridgeland and The Woodlands residential communities. In 2008, we sold 272.5 residential acres compared to 409.1 acres in 2007. We sold 84.6 acres of commercial lots in 2008 compared to 163.2 acres in 2007. As of December 31, 2008, the master planned communities had 18,040 remaining saleable acres.
The provision for impairment recorded at Nouvelle at Natick reflects the continued weak demand and the likely extension of the period required to complete all unit sales at this residential condominium project. Sales of condominium units commenced in the fourth quarter 2008.

Management and other fees, property management and other costs and general and administrative in the aggregate represent our costs of doing business and are generally not direct property-related costs. The decrease in management and other fees in 2008 were primarily due to lower development fees as projects are completed and leasing commissions resulting from current market conditions and the 2007 cessation of management fees on the 19 GGP/Homart I Properties due to the acquisition of NCSCPF's interesting these properties in July 2007.
The decrease in property management and other costs in 2008 were primarily due to lower leasing commissions and lower overall management costs, including bonus expense, stock compensation expense and travel expense primarily related to a reduction in personnel and other cost reduction efforts.
The increase in general and administrative in 2008 is primarily due to the $15.4 million of additional deemed, non-cash executive compensation expense related to certain senior officer loans (Note 2). These increases in general and administrative were partially offset by the decrease in our allocated share of legal fees related to the Homart IIGlendale Matter settlement (below and Note 2).
Strategic initiatives of $18.7 million include professional fees for restructuring and advisory services.
In addition to the provisions for impairment recognized in our Master Planned Communities segment describe above, based on the results of our evaluations for impairment (Note 2), we recognized impairment charges of $7.8 million in the third quarter of 2008 related to our Century Plaza (Birmingham, Alabama) operating property and $4.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2008 related to our Southshore Mall (Aberdeen, Washington) operating property. We also recognized impairment charges of $31.7 million throughout 2008 related to the write down of various pre-development costs that were determined to be non-recoverable due to the related projects being terminated which is the
49
result of the current depressed retail real estate market and our liquidity situation. We recognized similar impairment charges for pre-development projects in the amount of $2.9 million in 2007. In addition, in the fourth quarter 2008, we recognized an impairment charge related to allocated goodwill of $32.8 million.
The decrease in litigation provision is due to the settlement and mutual release agreement with Caruso Affiliated Holdings LLC in December 2008 (Note 1) that released the defendants from all past, present and future claims related to the Homart IIGlendale Matter in exchange for a settlement payment of $48.0 million, which was paid from the appellate bond cash collateral amounts in January 2009. GGP has not been reimbursed for any portion of this payment by its 50% joint venture partner in GGP/Homart II, and we will reimburse $5.5 million of costs to such joint venture partner in connection with the settlement. Accordingly, in December 2008, we adjusted our liability for the full judgment amount of $89.4 million to $48 million and reversed legal fees incurred by GGP/Homart II of $14.2 million that were previously recorded at 100% by GGP and post-judgment related interest expense of $7.0 million. The net impact of these items related to the settlement is a credit of $57.1 million reflected in litigation provision in our consolidated financial statements.
The increase in depreciation and amortization is primarily due to a cumulative adjustment to the useful lives of certain assets in 2007.
The increase in interest expense is primarily due to higher debt balances at of December 31, 2008 compared to December 31, 2007, that was primarily the result of the new multi property financing and/or re-financings in 2008 as well as increased rates at. Fashion Show, The Shoppes at the Palazzo and Tucson in the fourth quarter of 2008. The financing activity in the fourth quarter of 2008 resulted in significant increases in interest rates and loan fees. In addition, the financing of the secured portfolio facility also increased interest expense in 2008. Lastly, the increase in interest expense was also due to a decrease in the amount of capitalized interest as a result of decreased development spending in 2008 compared to 2007. See Liquidity and Capital Resources for information regarding 2008 financing activity and Item 7A, "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk," for additional information regarding the potential impact of future interest rate increases.
The increase in provision for (benefit from) income taxes in 2008 was primarily attributable to tax benefits received in 2007 related to an internal restructuring of certain of our operating properties that were previously owned by TRS and the tax benefit related to the provision for impairment at our master planned communities in 2007.
The decrease in equity in income of Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates is primarily due to a significant decrease in our share of income related to GGP/Homart II in 2008, as a result of the settlement of the Glendale matter as we reflect our 50% share of legal costs ($7.1 million) that had previously been recorded at 100% as general and administrative in our consolidated financial statements. In addition, our share of income related to The Woodlands joint ventures decreased due to the gain on sale of the Marriott Hotel in 2007. Lastly, a change in estimate of the useful life for certain intangible assets resulted in lower depreciation expense across the TRCLP joint ventures in 2007.
The discontinued operations, net of minority interestgains on dispositions represents the gains from the sale of three office buildings and two office parks, as discussed above, in 2008.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2009 our consolidated debt ($24.46 billion) and our share of the debt of our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates ($3.12 billion) aggregated $27.58 billion. The Chapter 11 cases triggered defaults on substantially all of the debt obligations of the Debtors, approximately $21.83 billion of our consolidated debt, which defaults were stayed under section 362 of Chapter 11.
50
These debt obligations and substantially all other pre-petition obligations of the Debtors are subject to settlement under a plan of reorganization which must be confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court.
As of March 1, 2010, $10.65 billion of our consolidated debt associated with the Track 1 Debtors was restructured, does not mature until dates after January 1, 2014 and we expect to be able to refinance or extend such debt on the applicable maturity dates. However, we have $11.19 billion of consolidated debt still subject to settlement under a plan or plans of reorganization. Such debt, excluding debt market rate adjustments and the discount on the Senior Exchangeable Notes, consists of the following:
With respect to our share of the debt of our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates, (excluding Woodlands MPS and Brazil) $513.8 million matures in 2010 and $1.17 billion matures in 2011. Of such amounts, our share of the debt of one of our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates, approximately $78.3 million, has been extended until 2014.
The Debtors filed bankruptcy because they did not have sufficient liquidity to pay their debts as they became due. We currently believe that we will be able to extend the maturity date or refinance the debts of our Unconsolidated Real Estates Affiliates at our current contract rate. If we are unable to extend or refinance such loans, or are unable to do so on satisfactory terms, we may not have sufficient liquidity to pay these debts.
The costs for the Track 1 Debtors to emerge from bankruptcy and restructure their associated secured mortgage loans are currently estimated to be $626 million, approximately $165 million of which is not payable until the earlier of the emergence of the TopCo Debtors or December 31, 2010. Through February 19, 2010, we have paid $270 million of the costs to emerge and restructure the Track 1 Debtors' secured mortgage debt and currently anticipate that we will have sufficient liquidity to pay the amounts due prior to the emergence of the TopCo Debtors. Such costs include payment of $45.7 million in escrow to fund required insurance, tax, ground rent, capital expenditure, anchor and other escrows. In addition, amortization on the restructured loans of the Track 1 Debtors resumes or commences on emergence and is estimated to be approximately $226 million in 2010 and approximately $2 billion over the next five years. These restructured loans also have financial covenants, primarily debt service coverage ratios, which will restrict our cash and operations.
We are continuing to pursue consensual restructurings of the Secured Portfolio Loan, the Fashion Show/Palazzo loans and the remaining secured mortgage debt to extend the maturity dates and are prepared to pursue a non-consensual solution if necessary. We have commenced a process to explore all potential alternatives for emergence of the TopCo Debtors. A stand alone restructuring of the TopCo Debtors is currently estimated to require approximately $1.5 billion of new capital. This new capital requirement is a current estimate, subject to change, and is based upon a number of assumptions that are also subject to change. Such assumptions include, but are not limited to, repayment of the DIP Facility in cash, conversion of amounts outstanding under the 2006 Credit
51
Facility, the GGPLP Exchangeable Notes and the TRCLP bonds to GGP equity, sale or give back of the Special Consideration Properties and payment of the dividend to GGP stockholders in a combination of 90% stock and 10% cash through 2011.
The $2.625 proposed equity commitment from Brookfield and related plan of reorganization, if consummated in accordance with the terms of the agreement in principal, could enable GGP to emerge form bankruptcy on a stand alone basis. However, the plan is subject to definitive documentation, Bankruptcy Court approval, and higher and better offers, and there can be no assurance that such equity investment or related plan will be consummated.
Our ability to continue as a going concern, as described in Note 1, is dependent upon our ability to restructure our debt and complete plans of reorganization for the 2010 Track Debtors.
Summary of Cash Flows
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $871.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 and $556.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Cash used for Land/residential development and acquisitions expenditures was $78.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 a decrease from $166.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 as we have slowed the pace of residential land development in 2009 in light of sales pace declines.
As a result of the settlement of the Glendale Matter (Note 1), $67.1 million that was previously paid as cash collateral for the appellate bond was refunded to the Company resulting in an increase in net cash provided by operating activities of $134.1 million.
Net cash provided by (used in) certain assets and liabilities, including accounts and notes receivable, prepaid expense and other assets, deferred expenses, and accounts payable and accrued expenses totaled $357.0 million in 2009 and $(117.6) million in 2008. Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased $424.8 million primarily as a result of an increase in accrued interest and liabilities stayed by our bankruptcy filings. Although liabilities not subject to compromise and certain liabilities subject to compromise have been approved for payment by the Bankruptcy Court, a significant portion of our liabilities subject to compromise are subject to settlement under a plan of reorganization and have not been paid. In addition, accounts and notes receivable increased $22.6 million from December 31, 2008 to December 31, 2009, whereas, such accounts decreased $12.7 million from December 31, 2007 to December 31, 2008.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $334.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 and $1. 21 billion for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Cash used for acquisition/development of real estate and property additions/improvements was $252.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 a decline from $1.19 billion for the year ended December 31, 2008 primarily due to the completion, suspension or termination of a number of development projects in late 2008 and early 2009.
Net investing cash used in our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates was $89.7 million in 2009 and $102.3 million in 2008.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities was $(51.3) million for the year ended December 31, 2009 and $722.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.
52
New financings exceeded principal payments by $20.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 and $418.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.
Distributions to common stockholders, holders of Common Units and holders of perpetual and convertible preferred units totaled $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 and $476.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2008.

In the normal course of business, from time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings relating to the ownership and operations of our properties (reference is made to Item 3 above, which description is incorporated into this response).
53
We lease land or buildings at certain properties from third parties. The leases generally provide us with a right of first refusal in the event of a proposed sale of the property by the landlord. Rental payments are expensed as incurred and have, to the extent applicable, been straight-lined over the term of the lease. Contractual rental expense, including participation rent, was $19.0 million in 2009, $19.3 million in 2008 and $19.5 million in 2007, while the same rent expense excluding amortization of above and below-market ground leases and straight-line rents, as presented in our consolidated financial statements, was $12.7 million in 2009, $12.4 million in 2008 and $12.0 million in 2007.
Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet financing arrangements.
REIT Requirements
In order to remain qualified as a real estate investment trust for federal income tax purposes, we must distribute or pay tax on 100% of our capital gains and at least 90% of our ordinary taxable income to stockholders. We may not have sufficient liquidity to meet these distribution requirements. In determining distributions, the Board of Directors considers operating cash flow. The Board of Directors may alternatively elect to pay a portion of any required dividend in stock.
Seasonality
Although we have a year-long temporary leasing program, occupancies for short-term tenants and, therefore, rental income recognized, are higher during the second half of the year. In addition, the majority of our tenants have December or January lease years for purposes of calculating annual Overage Rent amounts. Accordingly, Overage Rent thresholds are most commonly achieved in the fourth quarter. As a result, revenue production is generally highest in the fourth quarter of each year.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. For example, significant estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to: Fair Value (as defined below) of assets for measuring impairment of operating properties, development properties, joint ventures and goodwill; valuation of debt of emerged entities, useful lives of assets; capitalization of development and leasing costs; provision for income taxes; recoverable amounts of receivables and deferred taxes; initial valuations and related amortization periods of deferred costs and intangibles, particularly with respect to property acquisitions; and cost ratios and completion percentages used for land sales. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Critical Accounting Policies
Critical accounting policies are those that are both significant to the overall presentation of our financial condition and results of operations and require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments. Our critical accounting policies are those applicable to the following:
Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements
As of January 1, 2009 we adopted the following two accounting pronouncements that required retrospective application, in which all periods presented reflect the necessary changes.
54
As of January 1, 2009, we adopted a new generally accepted accounting principle related to convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion, which required us to separately account for the liability and equity components of our Exchangeable Notes (Note 6) in a manner that reflects the nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. The impact of the required retrospective application of this pronouncement on our consolidated financial statements is that the Exchangeable Notes have been reflected as originally being issued at a discount, with such discount being reflected in subsequent periods as a non-cash increase in interest expense.
As of January 1, 2009, we adopted a new generally accepted accounting principle related to noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements, which changed the reporting for minority interests in our consolidated joint ventures by re-characterizing them as noncontrolling interests and re-classifying certain of such minority interests as a component of permanent equity in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The minority interests related to our common and preferred Operating Partnership units have been re-characterized as redeemable noncontrolling interests and will remain as temporary equity at a mezzanine level in our Consolidated Balance Sheets presented at the greater of the carrying amount adjusted for the noncontrolling interest's share of the allocation of income or loss (and its share of other comprehensive income or loss) and dividends or the Fair Value (as defined below) as of each measurement date subsequent to the measurement date. Fair Value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date ("Fair Value"). The excess of the Fair Value over the carrying amount from period to period is charged to Additional paid-in capital on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. These principles also changed the presentation of the income allocated to minority interests by re-characterizing it as allocations to noncontrolling interests and re-classifying such income as an adjustment to net income to arrive at net income attributable to common stockholders.
Accounting for Reorganization
The accompanying consolidated financial statements and the combined condensed financial statements of the Debtors presented below have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles related to financial reporting by entities whose cases are pending under the Bankruptcy Code. Such consolidated financial statements are also prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. Such accounting guidance also provides that if a debtor, or group of debtors, has significant combined assets and liabilities of entities which are not operating under Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, the debtors and non-debtors should continue to be combined. However, separate disclosure of financial statement information solely relating to the debtor entities should be presented. Additionally, due to the various effective dates in December 2009 of the plans of reorganization for the Track 1A Debtors discussed above, a convenience date of December 31, 2009 was elected for the accounting for the emergence from bankruptcy of the Track 1A Debtors.
Classification of Liabilities Subject to Compromise
Liabilities not subject to compromise include: (1) liabilities held by Non-Debtor and Track 1A Debtor entities; (2) liabilities incurred after the Petition Date; (3) pre-petition liabilities that the Track 1B Debtors and the 2010 Track Debtors expect to pay in full; and (4) liabilities related to pre-petition contracts that have not been rejected pursuant to section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code. Unsecured liabilities not subject to compromise at December 31, 2009 with respect to the Track 1A Debtors are reflected at the current estimate of the probable amounts to be paid even though the amounts of such unsecured liabilities ultimately to be allowed by the Bankruptcy Court (and therefore paid at 100% pursuant to the Track 1 Plans) have not yet been determined. With respect to secured liabilities, GAAP
55
bankruptcy guidance provides that Track 1A Debtor mortgage loans should be recorded at their estimated Fair Value.
Reorganization Items
Reorganization items under the Chapter 11 Cases are expense or income items that were incurred or realized by the Debtors as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases and are presented separately in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income and in the condensed combined statements of operations of the Debtors presented above. These items include professional fees and similar types of expenses and gains directly related to the Chapter 11 Cases, resulting from activities of the reorganization process, and interest earned on cash accumulated by the Debtors as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases.
ImpairmentOperating properties, land held for development and sale and developments in progress
We review our consolidated and unconsolidated real estate assets, including operating properties, land held for development and sale and developments in progress, for potential impairment indicators whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Impairment indicators for our retail and other segment are assessed separately for each property and include, but are not limited to, significant decreases in real estate property net operating income, significant occupancy percentage changes and strategic determinations as reflected in certain bankruptcy plans of reorganization, either prospective, or filed and confirmed.
Impairment indicators for our Master Planned Communities segment are assessed separately for each community and include, but are not limited to, significant decreases in sales pace or average selling prices, significant increases in expected land development and construction costs or cancellation rates, and projected losses on expected future sales.
Impairment indicators for pre-development costs, which are typically costs incurred during the beginning stages of a potential development, and developments in progress are assessed by project and include, but are not limited to, significant changes in projected completion dates, revenues or cash flows, development costs, market factors and sustainability of development projects.
If an indicator of potential impairment exists, the asset is tested for recoverability by comparing its carrying amount to the estimated future undiscounted operating cash flow. A real estate asset is considered to be impaired when its carrying amount cannot be recovered through estimated future undiscounted cash flows. To the extent an impairment provision is necessary, the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated Fair Value is expensed to operations. In addition, the impairment is allocated proportionately to adjust the carrying amount of the asset. The adjusted carrying amount, which represents the new cost basis of the asset, is depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset.
ImpairmentInvestment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates
We review our investment in the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates for a series of operating losses of an investee or other factors (including those discussed above) that may indicate that a decrease in value of our investment in the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates has occurred which is other-than-temporary. The investment in each of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates is evaluated periodically and as deemed necessary for recoverability and valuation declines that are other than temporary. Accordingly, in addition to the property-specific impairment analysis that we perform on the investment properties owned by such joint ventures (as part of our investment properties and developments in progress impairment process described above), we also consider the ownership and distribution preferences and limitations and rights to sell and repurchase of our ownership interests. If
56
we determine that the decline in value of our investment is other than temporary, it is written down to its estimated Fair Value.
ImpairmentGoodwill
We review our goodwill for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. Since each individual rental property or each operating property is an operating segment and considered a reporting unit, we perform this test by first comparing the estimated Fair Value of each property with our book value of the property, including, if applicable, its allocated portion of aggregate goodwill. We assess Fair Value based on estimated cash flow projections that utilize appropriate discount and capitalization rates and available market information. Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions. If the book value of a property, including its goodwill, exceeds its estimated Fair Value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. In this second step, if the implied Fair Value of goodwill is less than the book value of goodwill, then an impairment charge would be recorded.
Recoverable amounts of receivables and deferred tax assets
We make periodic assessments of the collectibility of receivables (including those resulting from the difference between rental revenue recognized and rents currently due from tenants) and the recoverability of deferred taxes based on a specific review of the risk of loss on specific accounts or amounts. The receivable analysis places particular emphasis on past-due accounts and considers the nature and age of the receivables, the payment history and financial condition of the payee, the basis for any disputes or negotiations with the payee and other information which may impact collectibility. For straight-line rents receivable, the analysis considers the probability of collection of the unbilled deferred rent receivable given our experience regarding such amounts. For deferred tax assets, an assessment of the recoverability of the tax asset considers the current expiration periods of the prior net operating loss carryforwards or other asset and the estimated future taxable income of our taxable REIT subsidiaries. The resulting estimates of any allowance or reserve related to the recovery of these items is subject to revision as these factors change and is sensitive to the effects of economic and market conditions on such payees and our taxable REIT subsidiaries.
Capitalization of development and leasing costs
We capitalize the costs of development and leasing activities of our properties. These costs are incurred both at the property location and at the regional and corporate office levels. The amount of capitalization depends, in part, on the identification and justifiable allocation of certain activities to specific projects and leases. Differences in methodologies of cost identification and documentation, as well as differing assumptions as to the time incurred on projects, can yield significant differences in the amounts capitalized and, as a result, the amount of depreciation recognized.
Revenue recognition and related matters
Minimum rent revenues are recognized on a straight-lined basis over the terms of the related leases. Minimum rent revenues also include amounts collected from tenants to allow the termination of their leases prior to their scheduled termination dates and accretion related to above and below-market tenant leases on acquired properties. Straight-line rents receivable represents the current net cumulative rents recognized prior to when billed and collectible as provided by the terms of the leases. Overage Rent is recognized on an accrual basis once tenant sales exceed contractual tenant lease thresholds. Recoveries from tenants are established in the leases or computed based upon a formula
57
related to real estate taxes, insurance and other shopping center operating expenses and are generally recognized as revenues in the period the related costs are incurred.
Revenues from land sales are recognized using the full accrual method provided that various criteria relating to the terms of the transactions and our subsequent involvement with the land sold are met. Revenues relating to transactions that do not meet the established criteria are deferred and recognized when the criteria are met or using the installment or cost recovery methods, as appropriate in the circumstances. For land sale transactions in which we are required to perform additional services and incur significant costs after title has passed, revenues and cost of sales are recognized on a percentage of completion basis.
Cost ratios for land sales are determined as a specified percentage of land sales revenues recognized for each master planned community project. The cost ratios used are based on actual costs incurred and estimates of development costs and sales revenues for completion of each project. The ratios are reviewed regularly and revised for changes in sales and cost estimates or development plans. Significant changes in these estimates or development plans, whether due to changes in market conditions or other factors, could result in changes to the cost ratio used for a specific project. The specific identification method is used to determine cost of sales for certain parcels of land, including acquired parcels we do not intend to develop or for which development is complete at the date of acquisition.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements and Developments
As described in Note 15 to the consolidated financial statements, new accounting pronouncements have been issued which are effective for the current or subsequent year.
Inflation
Substantially all of our tenant leases contain provisions designed to partially mitigate the negative impact of inflation. Such provisions include clauses enabling us to receive Overage Rent based on tenants' gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or escalation clauses, which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. In addition, many of the leases expire each year which may enable us to replace or renew such expiring leases with new leases at higher rents. Finally, many of the existing leases require the tenants to pay amounts related to all, or substantially all, of their share of certain operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, thereby partially reducing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. In general, these amounts either vary annually based on actual expenditures or are set on an initial share of costs with provisions for annual increases. Only if inflation exceeds the rate set in the leases for annual increases (typically 4% to 5%) would increases in expenses due to inflation be a risk.
Inflation also poses a risk to us due to the probability of future increases in interest rates. Such increases would adversely impact us due to our outstanding variable-rate debt. In certain cases, we have previously limited our exposure to interest rate fluctuations related to a portion of our variable-rate debt by the use of interest rate cap and swap agreements. Such agreements, subject to current market conditions, allow us to replace variable-rate debt with fixed-rate debt in order to achieve our desired ratio of variable-rate to fixed rate date. However, in an increasing interest rate environment the fixed rates we can obtain with such replacement fixed-rate cap and swap agreements or the fixed-rate on new debt will also continue to increase.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are subject to market risk associated with changes in interest rates both in terms of variable-rate debt and the price of new fixed-rate debt upon maturity of existing debt and for
58
acquisitions. As of December 31, 2009, we had consolidated debt of $24.46 billion, including $5.28 billion of variable-rate debt. Although the majority of the remaining variable-rate debt is subject to interest rate cap agreements, such interest rate caps generally limit our interest rate exposure only if LIBOR exceeds a rate per annum significantly higher (generally above 8% per annum) than current LIBOR rates (0.23% at December 31, 2009). A 25 basis point movement in the interest rate on the $5.28 billion of variable-rate debt would result in a $13.2 million annualized increase or decrease in consolidated interest expense and operating cash flows.
In addition, we are subject to interest rate exposure as a result of variable-rate debt collateralized by the Unconsolidated Properties for which similar interest rate swap agreements have not been obtained. Our share (based on our respective equity ownership interests in the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates) of such remaining variable-rate debt was $390.1 million at December 31, 2009. A similar 25 basis point annualized movement in the interest rate on the variable-rate debt of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates would result in an approximately $1.0 million annualized increase or decrease in our equity in the income and operating cash flows from Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates.
We are further subject to interest rate risk with respect to our fixed-rate financing in that changes in interest rates will impact the Fair Value of our fixed-rate financing. For additional information concerning our debt, and management's estimation process to arrive at a Fair Value of our debt as required by GAAP, reference is made to Item 7, Liquidity and Capital Resources and Notes 2 and 6. At December 31, 2009, the Fair Value of our debt has been estimated for this purpose to be $93.6 million lower than the carrying amount of $7.30 billion.
We have not entered into any transactions using derivative commodity instruments.

Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of our principal executive and principal financial officers to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and preparation of our financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S.
As of December 31, 2009, we conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework utilizing the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in "Internal ControlsIntegrated Framework." Based on this assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2009, the Company maintained effective internal controls over financial reporting. Deloitte & Touche LLP, the independent registered accounting firm who audited our consolidated financial statements contained in this Form 10-K, has issued a report on our internal control over financial reporting, which is incorporated herein.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
General Growth Properties, Inc.
Chicago, Illinois
We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of General Growth Properties, Inc. (Debtor-in-Possession) and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2009, based on criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company's board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on the criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2009 of the Company and our report dated March 1, 2010 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements and included explanatory paragraphs regarding the Company's bankruptcy proceedings, the Company's ability to continue as a going concern, and the Company's change in methods of accounting for noncontrolling interests and convertible debt instruments.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To
the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
General Growth Properties, Inc.
Chicago, Illinois
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of General Growth Properties, Inc. (Debtor-in-Possession) and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the consolidated financial statements of GGP/Homart II L.L.C. and GGP-TRS L.L.C., the Company's investments in which are accounted for by use of the equity method. The Company's equity of $219,618,000 and $235,845,000 in GGP/Homart II L.L.C.'s net assets as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and of $(307,000), $9,703,000, and $17,163,000 in GGP/Homart II L.L.C's net (loss) income for each of the three years in the respective period ended December 31, 2009 are included in the accompanying financial statements. The Company's (deficit) equity of $(5,284,000) and $1,388,000 in GGP-TRS L.L.C.'s net assets as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, and of $(8,624,000), $8,564,000, and $13,800,000 in GGP-TRS L.L.C.'s net (loss) income for each of the three years in the respective period ended December 31, 2009 are included in the accompanying financial statements. The financial statements of GGP/Homart II L.L.C. and GGP-TRS L.L.C. were audited by other auditors related to the periods listed above whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for such companies, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of the other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of General Growth Properties, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, on January 1, 2009, the Company changed its methods of accounting for noncontrolling interests and convertible debt instruments and retrospectively adjusted all periods presented in the consolidated financial statements.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. The accompanying financial statements do not purport to reflect or provide for the consequences of the bankruptcy proceedings. In particular, such financial statements do not purport to show (a) as to assets, their realizable value on a liquidation basis or their availability to satisfy liabilities; (b) as to prepetition liabilities, the amounts that may be allowed for claims or contingencies, or the status and priority thereof; (c) as to equity accounts, the effect of any changes that may be made in the capitalization of the Company; or (d) as to operations, the effect of any changes that may be made in its business.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. The Company's potential inability to negotiate and obtain confirmation of a
F-2
mutually agreeable plan of reorganization and to address their remaining future debt maturities raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans concerning these matters are also discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2009, based on the criteria established in Internal ControlIntegrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 1, 2010 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
General
General Growth Properties, Inc. ("GGP"), a Delaware corporation, is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, referred to as a "REIT" which, as described in "Debtors in Possession" below, filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code ("Chapter 11") in the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court") on April 16, 2009 (the "Petition Date"). GGP was organized in 1986 and through its subsidiaries and affiliates operates, manages, develops and acquires retail and other rental properties, primarily shopping centers, which are located primarily throughout the United States. GGP also holds assets through its international Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates (defined below) in Brazil, Turkey and Costa Rica (Note 5). Additionally, GGP develops and sells land for residential, commercial and other uses primarily in large-scale, long-term master planned community projects in and around Columbia, Maryland; Summerlin, Nevada; and Houston, Texas, as well as one residential condominium project located in Natick (Boston), Massachusetts. In these notes, the terms "we," "us" and "our" refer to GGP and its subsidiaries (the "Company").
Substantially all of our business is conducted through GGP Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership" or "GGPLP"). As of December 31, 2009, common equity ownership (without giving effect to the potential conversion of the Preferred Units as defined below) of the Operating Partnership was as follows:
98 | % | GGP, as sole general partner | |
1 |
Limited partners that indirectly include family members of the original stockholders of the Company. Represented by common units of limited partnership interest (the "Common Units") |
||
1 |
Limited partners that include subsequent contributors of properties to the Operating Partnership which are also represented by Common Units. |
||
100 | % | ||
The Operating Partnership also has preferred units of limited partnership interest (the "Preferred Units") outstanding. The terms of the Preferred Units provide that the Preferred Units are convertible into Common Units which then are redeemable for cash or, at our option, shares of GGP common stock on a one-for-one basis (Note 11).
In addition to holding ownership interests in various joint ventures, the Operating Partnership generally conducts its operations through the following subsidiaries:
F-12
GENERAL GROWTH PROPERTIES, INC.
(Debtor-in-Possession)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION (Continued)
In this report, we refer to our ownership interests in properties in which we own a majority or controlling interest and, as a result, are consolidated under generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") as the "Consolidated Properties." Some properties are held through joint venture entities in which we own a non-controlling interest ("Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates") and we refer to those properties as the "Unconsolidated Properties." Collectively, we refer to the Consolidated Properties and Unconsolidated Properties as our "Company Portfolio."
Debtors in Possession
In the fourth quarter of 2008 we suspended our cash dividend and halted or slowed nearly all development and redevelopment projects other than those that were substantially complete, could not be deferred as a result of contractual commitments, and joint venture projects. As we had significant past due, or imminently due, and cross-collateralized or cross-defaulted debt on the Petition Date, the Company, the Operating Partnership and certain of the Company's domestic subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11. On April 22, 2009, certain additional domestic subsidiaries (collectively with the subsidiaries filing on the Petition Date, the Company and the Operating Partnership, the "Debtors") of the Company also filed voluntary petitions for relief in the Bankruptcy Court (collectively, the "Chapter 11 Cases") which the Bankruptcy Court has ruled may be jointly administered. However, neither GGMI, certain of our wholly-owned subsidiaries, nor any of our joint ventures, (collectively, the "Non-Debtors") either consolidated or unconsolidated, have sought such protection.
In the aggregate, the Debtors, all of which are consolidated in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, own and operate 166 of the more than 200 regional shopping centers that we own and manage. The Non-Debtors are continuing their operations and are not subject to the requirements of Chapter 11. Pursuant to Chapter 11, a debtor is afforded certain protection against its creditors and creditors are prohibited from taking certain actions (such as pursuing collection efforts or proceeding to foreclose on secured obligations) related to debts that were owed prior to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases. Accordingly, although the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases triggered defaults on substantially all debt obligations of the Debtors, creditors are stayed from taking any action as a result of such defaults. Absent an order of the Bankruptcy Court, these pre-petition liabilities are subject to settlement under a plan of reorganization.
Since the Petition Date, the Bankruptcy Court has granted a variety of Debtors motions that allow the Company to continue to operate its business in the ordinary course without interruption; and covering, among other things, employee obligations, critical service providers, tax matters, insurance matters, tenant and contractor obligations, claim settlements, ordinary course property sales, cash management, cash collateral, alternative dispute resolution, settlement of pre-petition mechanics liens and department store transactions. The Bankruptcy Court has also approved the Debtors' request to enter into a post-petition financing arrangement (the "DIP Facility"), as further discussed in Note 6.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION (Continued)
During December 2009, January and February 2010, 231 Debtors (the "Track 1 Debtors") owning 119 properties with $12.33 billion of secured mortgage loans filed consensual plans of reorganization (the "Track 1 Plans"). As of December 31, 2009, 113 Debtors owning 50 properties with $4.65 billion secured debt emerged from bankruptcy (the "Track 1A Debtors"). Effectiveness of the plans of reorganization and emergence from bankruptcy of the remaining Track 1 Debtors (the "Track 1B Debtors") continued through February 2010 and is expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2010. In such regard, through March 1, 2010, an additional 92 Debtors owning 57 properties with $5.98 billion of secured mortgage debt emerged from bankruptcy. The Chapter 11 Cases for the remaining Debtors (generally, GGP, GGPLP and other holding company or investment subsidiaries (the "TopCo Debtors") which own certain individual or groups of properties but also certain operating property Debtors, (collectively, the "2010 Track Debtors")) will continue until their respective plans of reorganization are filed with the Bankruptcy Court, approved by the applicable classes of creditors and confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court.
GGP is continuing to pursue consensual restructurings for 31 Debtors (the "Remaining Secured Debtors") with secured loans aggregating $2.50 billion.
On December 18, 2009, the Bankruptcy Court approved the payment of a $0.19 per share dividend to holders of record of GGP common stock on December 28, 2009 as declared by the GGP Board of Directors to allow GGP to satisfy the REIT dividend distribution requirements (Note 7) for 2009. The dividend was paid on January 28, 2010 in a combination of approximately $5.9 million in cash and approximately 4.9 million shares of common stock (with a valuation of $10.8455 calculated based on the volume weighted average trading prices of GGP's common stock on January 20, 21 and 22, 2010).
As described above, we have received legal protection from our creditors pursuant to the Chapter 11 Cases. This protection is limited in duration and the 2010 Track Debtors are currently negotiating the terms of a reorganization plan with our lenders and other stakeholders which is expected to require significant additional equity capital. The Track 1 Plans are a key component of the plan of reorganization currently being developed. We have filed a motion to extend the exclusivity period for us to file a plan until August 26, 2010 and to solicit acceptances of such plan to October 26, 2010. Our motion is currently scheduled to be heard by the Bankruptcy Court on March 3, 2010. Pending entry on order on our motion, the Bankruptcy Court has entered a bridge order extending the exclusivity period until the date that is 7 days following the date on which an order on our extension motion is entered. If an order is entered by the Bankruptcy Court granting our extension motion, it will supersede the bridge order. If the Bankruptcy Court denies our extension motion, the Company will have 7 days following the entry of an order related to the March 3 hearing before exclusivity expires. If we do not file a plan of reorganization for the 2010 Track Debtors prior to the lapse of the exclusivity period, any party in interest would be able to file a plan of reorganization for any of the 2010 Track Debtors.
Our potential inability to negotiate and obtain confirmation of a mutually agreeable plan of reorganization for the 2010 Track Debtors and to address our remaining future debt maturities raise substantial doubts as to our ability to continue as a going concern. The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America applicable to a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. However, as a result of the
F-14
GENERAL GROWTH PROPERTIES, INC.
(Debtor-in-Possession)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION (Continued)
Chapter 11 Cases, such realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities are subject to a significant number of uncertainties. Our consolidated financial statements do not reflect any adjustments related to the recoverability of assets and satisfaction of liabilities that might be necessary should we be unable to continue as a going concern.
Shareholder Rights Plan
We have a shareholder rights plan (with an expiration date, as amended, of the plan on November 18, 2010) which will impact a potential acquirer unless the acquirer negotiates with our Board of Directors and the Board of Directors approves the transaction. Pursuant to this plan, as amended, one preferred share purchase right (a "Right") is attached to each currently outstanding or subsequently issued share of our common stock. Prior to becoming exercisable, the Rights trade together with our common stock. In general, the Rights will become exercisable if a person or group acquires or announces a tender or exchange offer for 15% or more of our common stock. Each Right entitles the holder to purchase from GGP one-third of one-thousandth of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, par value $100 per share (the "Preferred Stock"), at an exercise price of $105 per one one-thousandth of a share, subject to adjustment. If a person or group acquires 15% or more of our common stock, each Right will entitle the holder (other than the acquirer) to purchase shares of our common stock (or, in certain circumstances, cash or other securities) having a market value of twice the exercise price of a Right at such time. Under certain circumstances, each Right will entitle the holder (other than the acquirer) to purchase the common stock held by the acquirer having a market value of twice the exercise price of a Right at such time. In addition, under certain circumstances, our Board of Directors may exchange each Right (other than those held by the acquirer) for one share of our common stock, subject to adjustment. If the Rights become exercisable, holders of common units of partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, other than GGP, will receive the number of Rights they would have received if their units had been redeemed and the purchase price paid in our common stock.

Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of GGP, our subsidiaries and joint ventures in which we have a controlling interest. For consolidated joint ventures, the noncontrolling partner's share of the assets, liabilities and operations of the joint ventures (generally computed as the joint venture partner's ownership percentage) is included in noncontrolling interests in Consolidated Real Estate Affiliates as permanent equity of the Company. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.
Reclassifications and Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements
Certain amounts in the 2008 and 2007 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. In addition, as of January 1, 2009 we adopted the following two accounting pronouncements that required retrospective application, in which all periods presented reflect the necessary changes.

As of January 1, 2009, we retrospectively adopted a new generally accepted accounting principle related to convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash upon conversion, which required us to separately account for the liability and equity components of our Exchangeable Senior Notes (the "Exchangeable Notes") in a manner that reflects the nonconvertible debt borrowing rate when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods. The impact of the required retrospective application of this pronouncement on our consolidated financial statements is that the Exchangeable Notes have been reflected as originally being issued at a discount, with such discount being reflected through April, 2012 as a non-cash increase in interest expense. Below is a summary of the effects of the retrospective application of this pronouncement on the consolidated financial statements and the Exchangeable Notes.

As of January 1, 2009, we retrospectively adopted a new generally accepted accounting principle related to noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements, which changed the reporting for minority interests in our consolidated joint ventures by re-characterizing them as noncontrolling interests and re-classifying certain of such minority interests as a component of permanent equity in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The minority interests related to our common and preferred Operating Partnership units have been re-characterized as redeemable noncontrolling interests and will remain as temporary equity at a mezzanine level in our Consolidated Balance Sheets presented at the greater of the carrying amount adjusted for the noncontrolling interest's share of the allocation of income or loss (and its share of other comprehensive income or loss) and dividends or the Fair Value (as defined below) as of each measurement date subsequent to the measurement date. Fair Value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date ("Fair Value"). The excess of the Fair Value over the carrying amount from period to period is charged to Additional paid-in capital in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. This also changed the presentation of the income allocated to minority interests by re-characterizing it as allocations to noncontrolling interests and re-classifying such income as an adjustment to net income to arrive at net income attributable to common stockholders.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
As of June 30, 2009, we adopted a new generally accepted accounting principle related to subsequent events which provides guidance on our assessment of subsequent events. The new standard clarifies that we must evaluate, as of each reporting period, events or transactions that occur after the balance sheet date through the date that the financial statements are issued. We performed our assessment of subsequent events and all material events or transactions since December 31, 2009 have been integrated into our disclosures in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Accounting for Reorganization
The accompanying consolidated financial statements and the combined condensed financial statements of the Debtors presented below have been prepared in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles related to financial reporting by entities in reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code, and on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. Such accounting guidance also provides that if a debtor, or group of debtors, has significant combined assets and liabilities of entities which have not sought Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, the debtors and non-debtors should continue to be combined. However, separate disclosure of financial statement information solely relating to the debtor entities should be presented. Therefore, the combined condensed financial statements presented below solely reflect the results for the Track 1B Debtors and the 2010 Track Debtors.

Pre-Petition Date claims and Classification of Liabilities Subject to Compromise
During September 2009, the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court their schedules of the assets and liabilities existing on the Petition Date. In addition, November 12, 2009 was established by the Bankruptcy Court as the general bar date (the date by which most entities that wished to assert a pre-petition claim against a Debtor had to file a proof of claim in writing). The Debtors have made subsequent amendments to those schedules and, as the bar date has passed, are now in the process of evaluating, reconciling and resolving all claims that were timely submitted. The substantial majority of the claims submitted were erroneous, duplicative or protective and the Debtors have filed, and will continue to file, claim objections with the Bankruptcy Court. Claim objections, that is, differences between liability amounts estimated by the Debtors and claims submitted by creditors that cannot be resolved, will be submitted to the Bankruptcy Court which will make a final determination of the allowable claim. The Track 1 Plans provide that all allowed claims, that is, undisputed or Bankruptcy

Court affirmed claims of creditors against the Track 1 Debtors, are to be paid in full. Our aggregate liabilities (consisting of Liabilities Subject to Compromise ("LSTC") and not subject to compromise as further described below) include provisions for claims against both the Track 1 Debtors and the 2010 Track Debtors that were timely submitted to the Bankruptcy Court and have been recorded, as appropriate, based upon the GAAP guidance for the recognition of contingent liabilities and on our evaluations of such claims. Accordingly, although submitted proofs of claims against all Debtors exceed the amounts recorded for such claims, we currently believe that the aggregate amount of claims recorded by the Debtors will not vary materially from the amount of claims that will ultimately be allowed or resolved by the Bankruptcy Court.
Liabilities not subject to compromise include: (1) liabilities held by Non-Debtor and Track 1A Debtor entities; (2) liabilities incurred after the Petition Date; (3) pre-petition liabilities that the Track 1B Debtors and the 2010 Track Debtors expect to pay in full, even though certain of these amounts may not be paid until after the applicable Debtor's plan of reorganization is effective; and (4) liabilities related to pre-petition contracts that affirmatively have not been rejected. Unsecured liabilities not subject to compromise as of December 31, 2009 with respect to the Track 1A Debtors are reflected at the current estimate of the probable amounts to be paid. However, the amounts of such unsecured liabilities related to the associated liabilities not subject to compromise resolved or allowed by the Bankruptcy Court (and therefore paid at 100% pursuant to the Track 1 Plans) has not yet been determined. In such regard, during February 2010, payments commenced on the Track 1 Debtor claims, a process expected to continue for several months as the amounts to be allowed are confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court. With respect to secured liabilities, GAAP bankruptcy guidance provides that Track 1A Debtor mortgage loans should be recorded at their estimated Fair Value upon emergence. A discount of approximately $342.2 million was recorded on such $4.65 billion of secured debt, with the resulting gain classified as a reorganization item. This discount will be accreted on an effective yield basis into interest expense in future periods as a non-cash item until maturity of the related debt obligation. In certain cases, either due to loan modifications which provide, with respect to the Special Consideration Properties (as defined in Note 6), the right to satisfy our obligations to the applicable mortgage lender by assigning title to the property to such lender or due to the non-recourse nature of the loans, the estimated Fair Value of the debt was set to the estimated Fair Value of the property. Similar gains will be recorded in the first quarter of 2010 with respect to the $7.69 billion of mortgage loans related to the Track 1B Debtors that have emerged or will emerge from bankruptcy in 2010.
All liabilities incurred prior to the Petition Date other than those specified immediately above are considered LSTC. The amounts of the various categories of liabilities that are subject to compromise are set forth below. As described above, these amounts represent the Company's estimates of known or potential pre-petition claims that are likely to be resolved in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases. Such claims remain subject to future adjustments which may result from 2010 Track Debtor/creditor negotiations, actions of the Bankruptcy Court, rejection of executory contracts and unexpired leases, the determination as to the value of any collateral securing claims, amended proofs of claim, or other events. There can be no assurance that the liabilities represented by claims against a particular 2010 Track Debtor will not be found to exceed the Fair Value of its respective assets. This could result in claims being paid at less than 100% of their face value and the equity of the applicable 2010 Track

$ | 17,767,253 | |||
The classification of liabilities as LSTC or as liabilities not subject to compromise is based on currently available information and analysis. As the Chapter 11 Cases proceed and additional information is received and analysis is completed, or as the Bankruptcy Court rules on relevant matters, the classification of amounts between LSTC and liabilities not subject to compromise may change. The amount of any such changes could be material.
Reorganization Items
Reorganization items under the Chapter 11 Cases are expense or income items that were incurred or realized by the Debtors as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases and are presented separately in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income and in the condensed combined statements of operations of the Debtors presented above. These items include professional fees and similar types of expenses and gains directly related to the Chapter 11 Cases, resulting from activities of the reorganization process, and interest earned on cash accumulated by the Debtors as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases. Unless property-specific or expressly allocated, reorganization items have been considered to be exclusively TopCo Debtor items.
With respect to certain retained professionals, the terms of engagement and the timing of payment for services rendered are subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court. In addition, certain of these retained professionals have agreements that provide for success or completion fees that are payable upon the consummation of specified restructuring or sale transactions. A portion of these success or completion fees, currently estimated at approximately $28.4 million in the aggregate, have been deemed probable of being paid and therefore we accrued $7.2 million related to the period from the date the retention of those professionals was approved by the Bankruptcy Court to our estimated date of successful emergence from bankruptcy.
In addition, the key employee incentive program (the "KEIP") was subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court. The KEIP is intended to retain certain key employees and provides for payment to these employees upon successful emergence from bankruptcy. A portion of the KEIP, currently estimated at approximately $131 million in the aggregate, has been deemed probable of being paid and therefore, as of December 31, 2009, we have accrued $27.5 million related to the period from the date approved by the Bankruptcy Court to our estimated date of successful emergence from bankruptcy. Although the amount of the KEIP payment is technically uncapped, we estimate the cost to be in the range from zero to approximately $160 million.

Properties
Real estate assets are stated at cost less any provisions for impairments. Construction and improvement costs incurred in connection with the development of new properties or the redevelopment of existing properties are capitalized to the extent the total carrying amount of the property does not exceed the estimated Fair Value of the completed property. Real estate taxes and interest costs incurred during construction periods are capitalized. Capitalized interest costs are based on qualified expenditures and interest rates in place during the construction period. Capitalized real estate taxes and interest costs are amortized over lives which are consistent with the constructed assets.
Pre-development costs, which generally include legal and professional fees and other directly-related third-party costs, are capitalized as part of the property being developed. In the event a development is no longer deemed to be probable, the costs previously capitalized are expensed (see also our impairment policies in this Note 2 below).
Tenant improvements, either paid directly or in the form of construction allowances paid to tenants, are capitalized and depreciated over the applicable lease term. Maintenance and repairs are

Impairment
Operating properties, land held for development and sale and developments in progress
The generally accepted accounting principles related to accounting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets require that if impairment indicators exist and the undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by an asset are less than its carrying amount, an impairment provision should be recorded to write down the carrying amount of such asset to its Fair Value. We review our consolidated and unconsolidated real estate assets, including operating properties, land held for development and sale and developments in progress, for potential impairment indicators whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Impairment indicators for our retail and other segment are assessed separately for each property and include, but are not limited to, significant decreases in real estate property net operating income and occupancy percentages.
Impairment indicators for our Master Planned Communities segment are assessed separately for each community and include, but are not limited to, significant decreases in sales pace or average selling prices, significant increases in expected land development and construction costs or cancellation rates, and projected losses on expected future sales.
Impairment indicators for pre-development costs, which are typically costs incurred during the beginning stages of a potential development, and developments in progress are assessed by project and include, but are not limited to, significant changes in projected completion dates, revenues or cash flows, development costs, market factors and sustainability of development projects.
If an indicator of potential impairment exists, the asset is tested for recoverability by comparing its carrying amount to the estimated future undiscounted cash flow. The cash flow estimates used both for determining recoverability and estimating Fair Value are inherently judgmental and reflect current and projected trends in rental, occupancy and capitalization rates, and estimated holding periods for the applicable assets. Although the estimated value of certain assets may be exceeded by the carrying amount, a real estate asset is only considered to be impaired when its carrying amount cannot be recovered through estimated future undiscounted cash flows. To the extent an impairment provision is necessary; the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its estimated Fair Value is expensed to operations. In addition, the impairment provision is allocated proportionately to adjust the carrying amount of the asset. The adjusted carrying amount, which represents the new cost basis of the asset, is depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset.

In 2009, the holding periods for the Special Consideration Properties were reduced to either reflect our probable transfer of such properties to the lender in satisfaction of the secured debt obligation or a change in the estimated holding period with respect to such property in conjunction with the development of our overall plan of reorganization. We recorded impairment charges related to our operating properties, land held for development and sale, and properties under development of $1.08 billion, $83.8 million and $130.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, as presented in the table below. All of these impairment charges are included in provisions for impairment in our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007.
Investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates
In accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles related to the equity method of accounting for investments, a series of operating losses of an investee or other factors may indicate that a decrease in value of our investment in the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates has occurred which is other-than-temporary. The investment in each of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates is evaluated periodically and as deemed necessary for recoverability and valuation declines that are other than temporary. Accordingly, in addition to the property-specific impairment analysis that we perform on the investment properties, land held for development and sale and developments in progress owned by such joint ventures (as part of our investment property impairment process described above), we also considered the ownership and distribution preferences and limitations and rights to sell and repurchase our ownership interests. We recorded impairment charges related to our investments in Circle T Power Center and The Shops at Circle T Ranch joint venture of $10.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 to write these investments down to their estimated Fair Value. Based on such evaluations, no provisions for impairment were recorded for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 related to our investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates. See Note 5 for further disclosure of the provisions for impairment related to certain properties within our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates.
Goodwill
The excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the net of the amounts assigned to assets acquired (including identified intangible assets) and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill. Goodwill has been recognized and allocated to specific properties in our Retail and Other Segment since each individual rental property or each operating property is an operating segment and considered a reporting unit. The generally accepted accounting principles related to goodwill and other intangible assets states that goodwill should be tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the asset might be impaired. As of the end of each quarter in 2009, we performed impairment tests on goodwill as changes in current market and economic conditions during each of the quarters in 2009 indicated an impairment of the asset might have occurred. We perform this test by first comparing the estimated Fair Value of each property with our book value of the property, including, if applicable, its allocated portion of aggregate goodwill. We assess Fair Value based on estimated future cash flow projections that utilize discount and capitalization rates which are generally unobservable in the market place (Level 3 inputs) under these principles, but approximate the inputs we believe would be utilized by market participants in assessing fair value.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Estimates of future cash flows are based on a number of factors including the historical operating results, known trends, and market/economic conditions. If the carrying amount of a property, including its goodwill, exceeds its estimated Fair Value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test is performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. In this second step, if the implied Fair Value of goodwill is less than the carrying amount of goodwill, an impairment charge is recorded. Based on our testing methodology, we recorded provisions for impairment of goodwill for the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, as presented in the table below. No provisions for impairment of goodwill were recorded for the year ended December 31, 2007.

General
Certain of our properties had Fair Values less than their carrying amounts. However, based on the Company's plans with respect to those properties, we believe that the carrying amounts are recoverable and therefore, under applicable GAAP guidance, no additional impairments were taken. Nonetheless, due to the tight credit markets, the recent and continuing decline in our market capitalization, the uncertain economic environment, as well as other uncertainties, or if our plans regarding our assets change, additional impairment charges in the future could result. Therefore, we can provide no assurance that material impairment charges with respect to operating properties, Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates, construction in progress, property held for development and sale or goodwill will not occur in future periods. Accordingly, we will continue to monitor circumstances and events in future periods to determine whether additional impairments are warranted.
Acquisitions of Operating Properties
Acquisitions of properties are accounted for utilizing the purchase method and, accordingly, the results of operations of acquired properties are included in our results of operations from the respective dates of acquisition. Estimates of future cash flows and other valuation techniques are used to allocate the purchase price of acquired property between land, buildings and improvements, equipment, debt liabilities assumed and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities such as amounts related to in-place at-market tenant leases, acquired above and below-market tenant and ground leases and tenant relationships. Due to existing contacts and relationships with tenants at our currently owned properties and at properties currently managed for others, no significant value has been ascribed to the tenant relationships at the acquired properties.
As of January 1, 2009, we adopted a new generally accepted accounting principle related to business combinations, which will change how business acquisitions are accounted for and will impact the financial statements both on the acquisition date and in subsequent periods.
Investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates
We account for investments in joint ventures where we own a non-controlling joint interest using the equity method. Under the equity method, the cost of our investment is adjusted for our share of the equity in earnings of such Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates from the date of acquisition and reduced by distributions received. Generally, the operating agreements with respect to our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates provide that assets, liabilities and funding obligations are shared in accordance with our ownership percentages. Therefore, we generally also share in the profit and losses, cash flows and other matters relating to our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates in accordance with our respective ownership percentages. Except for Retained Debt (as described in Note 5), differences between the carrying amount of our investment in the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates and our share of the underlying equity of such Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates is amortized over lives ranging from five to forty five years. When cumulative distributions exceed our investment in the joint venture, the investment is reported as a liability in our consolidated financial statements. For those joint ventures where we own less than approximately a 5% interest and have virtually no influence on the joint venture's operating and financial policies, we account for our investments using the cost method.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Highly-liquid investments with maturities at dates of purchase of three months or less are classified as cash equivalents.
Leases
Leases which transfer substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership to tenants are considered finance leases and the present values of the minimum lease payments and the estimated residual values of the leased properties, if any, are accounted for as receivables. Leases which transfer substantially all the risks and benefits of ownership to us are considered capital leases and the present values of the minimum lease payments are accounted for as assets and liabilities.
Deferred Expenses
Deferred expenses consist principally of financing fees and leasing costs and commissions. Deferred financing fees are amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method (or other methods which approximate the effective interest method) over the terms of the respective financing agreements. Deferred leasing costs and commissions are amortized using the straight-line method over periods that approximate the related lease terms. Deferred expenses in our Consolidated Balance Sheets are shown at cost, net of accumulated amortization, and were $266.2 million as of December 31, 2009 and $256.8 million as of December 31, 2008.
Noncontrolling interestsCommon (Note 12)
Generally, the holders of the Common Units share equally with our common stockholders on a per share basis in any distributions by the Operating Partnership on the basis that one Common Unit is equivalent to one share of GGP common stock. However, the Operating Partnership agreement permits distributions solely to GGP if such distributions are required to allow GGP to comply with the REIT distribution requirements or to avoid the imposition of excise tax (Note 7). Under certain circumstances, the Common Units (other than Common Units held by the parties to the Rights Agreement dated July 27, 1993, as described below) can be redeemed at the option of the holders for cash or, at our election, shares of GGP common stock on a one-for-one basis. Upon receipt of a request for redemption by a holder of such Common Units, the Company, as general partner of the Operating Partnership, has the option to pay the redemption price for such Common Units with shares of common stock of the Company (subject to certain conditions), or in cash, on a one-for-one basis with a cash redemption price equivalent to the market price of one share of common stock of the Company at the time of redemption. Parties to the Rights Agreement dated July 27, 1993 (the "Rights Agreement") have the right to redeem the Common Units covered by such agreement for shares of GGP Common Stock on a one-for-one basis until they and certain affiliates own 25% of the outstanding shares of GGP Common Stock, at which point such parties have the right, subject to certain limitations, to require the Company to purchase any additional Common Units subject to the agreement. The Company may elect to pay for such Common Units in cash, or in shares of GGP Common Stock at the Company's election subject to certain limitations. All prior requests for redemption of Common Units have been fulfilled with shares of the Company's common stock. Notwithstanding this historical practice, the aggregate amount of cash that would have been paid to the

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
holders of the outstanding Common Units as of December 31, 2009 if such holders had requested redemption of the Common Units as of December 31, 2009, and all such Common Units were redeemed (or purchased in the case of the Rights Agreement) for cash, would have been $86.1 million. As a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, we currently cannot redeem Common Units for cash or shares of GGP common stock. In addition, the conditions necessary to issue GGP common stock upon redemption of Common Units are not currently satisfied. GAAP provides that the redeemable noncontrolling interests are to be presented in our Consolidated Balance Sheets at the greater of Fair Value (the conversion value of the units based on the stock price) or the carrying amount of the units. The applicable stock price was $11.56 and $1.29 per share at December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. Accordingly, the redeemable noncontrolling interests have been presented at Fair Value at December 31, 2009 and carrying amount at December 31, 2008.
Treasury Stock
We account for repurchases of common stock using the cost method with common stock in treasury classified in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a reduction of stockholders' equity. Treasury stock is reissued at average cost.
Revenue Recognition and Related Matters
Minimum rent revenues are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases. Minimum rent revenues also include amounts collected from tenants to allow the termination of their leases prior to their scheduled termination dates and accretion related to above and below-market tenant leases on acquired properties. Termination income recognized for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 was $23.3 million, $34.9 million and $26.0 million, respectively. Net accretion related to above and below-market tenant leases for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 was $8.5 million, $15.6 million and $31.0 million, respectively.
Straight-line rent receivables, which represent the current net cumulative rents recognized prior to when billed and collectible as provided by the terms of the leases, of $254.7 million as of December 31, 2009 and $228.1 million as of December 31, 2008 are included in Accounts and notes receivable, net in our consolidated financial statements.
Percentage rent in lieu of fixed minimum rent received from tenants for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 was $61.7 million, $50.3 million and $44.3 million, respectively, and is included in Minimum rents in our consolidated financial statements.
We provide an allowance for doubtful accounts against the portion of accounts receivable, including straight-line rents, which is estimated to be uncollectible. Such allowances are reviewed periodically based upon our recovery experience. We also evaluate the probability of collecting future rent which is recognized currently under a straight-line methodology. This analysis considers the long-term nature of our leases, as a certain portion of the straight-line rent currently recognizable will not be billed to the tenant until future periods. Our experience relative to unbilled deferred rent receivable is that a certain portion of the amounts recorded as straight-line rental revenue are never collected from (or billed to) tenants due to early lease terminations. For that portion of the otherwise recognizable deferred rent that is not deemed to be probable of collection, no revenue is recognized. Accounts receivable in our Consolidated Balance Sheets are shown net of an allowance for doubtful

Overage Rent ("Overage Rent") is paid by a tenant when its sales exceed an agreed upon minimum amount. Overage Rent is calculated by multiplying the sales in excess of the minimum amount by a percentage defined in the lease. Overage Rent is recognized on an accrual basis once tenant sales exceed contractual tenant lease thresholds. Recoveries from tenants are established in the leases or computed based upon a formula related to real estate taxes, insurance and other shopping center operating expenses and are generally recognized as revenues in the period the related costs are incurred.
Management and other fees primarily represent management and leasing fees, construction fees, financing fees and fees for other ancillary services performed for the benefit of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates and for properties owned by third parties (Note 9).
Revenues from land sales are recognized using the full accrual method provided that various criteria relating to the terms of the transactions and our subsequent involvement with the land sold are met. Revenues relating to transactions that do not meet the established criteria are deferred and recognized when the criteria are met or using the installment or cost recovery methods, as appropriate in the circumstances. Revenues and cost of sales are recognized on a percentage of completion basis for land sale transactions in which we are required to perform additional services and incur significant costs after title has passed.
Cost ratios for land sales are determined as a specified percentage of land sales revenues recognized for each community development project. The cost ratios used are based on actual costs incurred and estimates of future development costs and sales revenues to completion of each project. The ratios are reviewed regularly and revised for changes in sales and cost estimates or development plans. Significant changes in these estimates or development plans, whether due to changes in market conditions or other factors, could result in changes to the cost ratio used for a specific project. The specific identification method is used to determine cost of sales for certain parcels of land, including acquired parcels we do not intend to develop or for which development was complete at the date of acquisition.
As of December 31, 2009, there have been 84 unit closings of sales at our 215 unit Nouvelle at Natick residential condominium project. As the threshold for profit recognition on such sales has not yet been achieved, the $36.4 million of sales proceeds received at December 31, 2009 has been deferred and has been reflected within accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities (Note 11). When

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
such thresholds are achieved, the deferred revenue, and the related costs of units sold, will be reflected on the percentage of completion method within our master planned community segment.
Income Taxes (Note 7)
Deferred income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns and are recorded primarily by certain of our taxable REIT subsidiaries. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. An increase or decrease in the deferred tax liability that results from a change in circumstances, and which causes a change in our judgment about expected future tax consequences of events, is included in the current tax provision. Deferred income taxes also reflect the impact of operating loss and tax credit carryforwards. A valuation allowance is provided if we believe it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. An increase or decrease in the valuation allowance that results from a change in circumstances, and which causes a change in our judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset, is included in the current tax provision. It is possible that the Company could experience a change in control pursuant to Section 382 that could limit the benefit of deferred tax assets. In addition, we recognize and report interest and penalties, if necessary, related to uncertain tax positions within our provision for income tax expense.
In many of our Master Planned Communities, gains with respect to sales of land for commercial use, condominiums or apartments are reported for tax purposes on the percentage of completion method. Under the percentage of completion method, gain is recognized for tax purposes as costs are incurred in satisfaction of contractual obligations. The method used for determining the percentage complete for income tax purposes is different than that used for financial statement purposes. In addition, gains with respect to sales of land for single family residences are reported for tax purposes under the completed contract method. Under the completed contract method, gain is recognized for tax purposes when 95% of the costs of our contractual obligations are incurred or the contractual obligation is transferred.
Earnings Per Share ("EPS")
Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted EPS is computed after adjusting the numerator and denominator of the basic EPS computation for the effects of all potentially dilutive common shares. The dilutive effect of convertible securities is computed using the "if-converted" method and the dilutive effect of options, warrants and their equivalents (including fixed awards and nonvested stock issued under stock-based compensation plans) is computed using the "treasury stock" method.
Diluted EPS excludes options where the exercise price was higher than the average market price of our common stock and options for which vesting requirements were not satisfied. Such options totaled 6,207,025 shares as of December 31, 2009, 4,966,829 shares as of December 31, 2008 and 3,754,458 shares as of December 31, 2007. Outstanding Common Units have also been excluded from the diluted

earnings per share calculation because including such Common Units would also require that the share of GGPLP income attributable to such Common Units be added back to net income therefore resulting in no effect on EPS. Finally, the Exchangeable Notes that were issued in April 2007 (Note 6) are also excluded from EPS because the conditions for exchange were not satisfied as of December 31, 2008 and were stayed by our Chapter 11 Cases in 2009.
Information related to our EPS calculations is summarized as follows:

Derivative Financial Instruments
As of January 1, 2009, we adopted the generally accepted accounting principles related to disclosures about derivative instruments and hedging activities which requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about the Fair Value of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative instruments.
We use derivative financial instruments to reduce risk associated with movement in interest rates. We may choose or be required by lenders to reduce cash flow and earnings volatility associated with interest rate risk exposure on variable-rate borrowings and/or forecasted fixed-rate borrowings by entering into interest rate swaps or interest rate caps. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.
During the first quarter of 2009, our interest rate swaps no longer qualified as highly effective and therefore no longer qualified for hedge accounting treatment as the Company made the decision not to pay future settlement payments under such swaps. As a result of the terminations of the swaps we incurred termination fees of $34.8 million. Accordingly, we reduced the liability associated with these derivative financial instruments during the first and second quarter of 2009 (included in interest expense in our consolidated financial statements) which resulted in a reduction in interest expense of $27.7 million in 2009. As the interest payments on the hedged debt remain probable, the net balance in the gain or loss in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income of $(27.7) million that existed as of December 31, 2008 remains in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income and is amortized to interest expense as the hedged forecasted transactions impact earnings or are deemed probable not to occur. The amortization of the accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income resulted in additional interest expense of $18.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Under interest rate cap agreements, we make initial premium payments to the counterparties in exchange for the right to receive payments from them if interest rates exceed specified levels during the agreement period. Notional principal amounts are used to express the volume of these transactions, but the cash requirements and amounts subject to credit risk are substantially less. We had no interest rate cap derivatives for our Consolidated Properties as of December 31, 2009 while we had three outstanding interest rate cap derivatives that were designated as a cash flow hedge of interest rate risk with a notional value of $1.13 billion as of December 31, 2008.
Parties to interest rate exchange agreements are subject to market risk for changes in interest rates and risk of credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty. We do not require any collateral under these agreements, but deal only with well known financial institution counterparties (which, in certain cases, are also the lenders on the related debt) and expect that all counterparties will meet their obligations.
We have not recognized any losses as a result of hedge accounting and the expense that we recognized related to changes in the time value of interest rate cap agreements were insignificant for 2009, 2008 and 2007.

Investments in Marketable Securities
Most investments in marketable securities are held in an irrevocable trust for participants (employees of a subsidiary acquired in 2004) in a qualified defined contribution pension plan, are classified as trading securities and are carried at Fair Value with changes in values recognized in earnings. Investments in certain marketable debt securities with maturities at dates of purchase in excess of three months are carried at amortized cost as we intend to hold these investments until maturity. Other investments in marketable equity securities subject to significant restrictions on sale or transfer are classified as available-for-sale and are carried at Fair Value with unrealized changes in values recognized in other comprehensive income.

Fair Value Measurements
We adopted the generally accepted accounting principles related to Fair Value measurements as of January 1, 2008 for our financial assets and liabilities and, although our disclosures were increased, such adoption did not change our valuation methods for such assets and liabilities. This initial adoption applied primarily to our derivative financial instruments, which are assets and liabilities carried at Fair Value (primarily based on unobservable market data) on a recurring basis in our consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2009, our derivative financial instruments and our investments in marketable securities are immaterial to our consolidated financial statements. In addition, as required, we adopted these principles as of January 1, 2009 for our non-financial assets and liabilities, which, in accordance with the guidance impacts our assets measured at Fair Value due to impairments incurred since adoption.
The accounting principles for Fair Value measurements establish a three-tier Fair Value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring Fair Value. These tiers include:

GENERAL GROWTH PROPERTIES, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
The asset or liability Fair Value measurement level within the Fair Value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the Fair Value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Any Fair Values utilized or disclosed in our consolidated financial statements were developed for the purpose of complying with the accounting principles established for Fair Value measurements. The Fair Values of our assets or liabilities for enterprise value in our Chapter 11 Cases or as a component of our reorganization plan (see Note 1) will reflect differing assumptions and methodologies. These estimates will be subject to a number of approvals and reviews and therefore may be materially different.
The following table summarizes our assets and liabilities that are measured at Fair Value on a nonrecurring basis:

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Fair Values of our financial instruments approximate their carrying amount in our financial statements except for debt. Notwithstanding that we do not believe that a fully-functioning market for real property financing exists currently, GAAP guidance requires that management estimate the Fair Value of our debt. However, as a result of the Company's Chapter 11 filing, the Fair Value for the outstanding debt that is included in liabilities subject to compromise in our Consolidated Balance Sheets cannot be reasonably determined at December 31, 2009 as the timing and amounts to be paid are subject to confirmation by the Bankruptcy Court. For the $7.30 billion of mortgages, notes and loans payable outstanding that are not subject to compromise at December 31, 2009, management's required estimates of Fair Value are presented below. This Fair Value was estimated solely for financial statement reporting purposes and should not be used for any other purposes, including to estimate the value of any of the Company's securities or to estimate the appropriate interest rate for consensual and non-consensual restructuring of secured debt in our Chapter 11 Cases. We estimated the Fair Value of this debt based on quoted market prices for publicly-traded debt, recent financing transactions (which may not be comparable), estimates of the Fair Value of the property that serves as collateral for such debt, historical risk premiums for loans of comparable quality, current London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"), a widely quoted market interest rate which is frequently the index used to determine the rate at which we borrow funds and US treasury obligation interest rates, and on the discounted estimated future cash payments to be made on such debt. The discount rates estimated reflect our judgment as to what the approximate current lending rates for loans or groups of loans with similar maturities and credit quality would be if credit markets were operating efficiently and assume that the

debt is outstanding through maturity. We have utilized market information as available or present value techniques to estimate the amounts required to be disclosed, or, in the case of the debt of the Track 1A Debtors, recorded due to GAAP bankruptcy emergence guidance (as described above and in Note 6). Since such amounts are estimates that are based on limited available market information for similar transactions and do not acknowledge transfer or other repayment restrictions that may exist in specific loans, it is unlikely that the estimated Fair Value of any of such debt could be realized by immediate settlement of the obligation.

Included in such amounts for 2009 is $4.2 billion of debt that relates to the 50 properties that emerged from bankruptcy in December 2009 where the carrying value of the debt was adjusted by $342.2 million to an estimated Fair Value of such debt (based on significant unobservable Level 3 Inputs).
StockBased Compensation Expense
We evaluate our stock-based compensation expense in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles related to sharebased payments, which requires companies to estimate the Fair Value of sharebased payment awards on the date of grant using an optionpricing model. The value of the portion of the award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as expense over the requisite service periods in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income.
These accounting principles require forfeitures to be estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The cumulative effect of estimating forfeitures for these plans decreased compensation expense by approximately $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, $1.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 and $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2007 and have been reflected in our consolidated financial statements.
Officer Loans
In October 2008, the independent members of the Company's Board of Directors learned that between November 2007 and September 2008, an affiliate of certain Bucksbaum family trusts advanced a series of unsecured loans, without the Board's approval, to Mr. Robert Michaels, the Company's former director and president and Mr. Bernard Freibaum, the Company's former director and chief financial officer, for the purpose of repaying personal margin debt relating to Company common stock owned by each of them. The loan to Mr. Michaels, which totaled $10 million, has been repaid in full. The loans to Mr. Freibaum totaled $90 million, of which $80 million was outstanding as of the date of Mr. Freibaum's separation from the Company in 2008. No Company assets or resources were involved

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
in the loans and no laws or United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") rules were violated as a result of the loans. Under applicable GAAP guidance, as a result of these loans, the Company is deemed to have received a contribution to capital by the lender and to have incurred compensation expense in an equal amount for no incremental equity interest in the Company. We calculated the Fair Value of the loans based on a derivation of the income approach known as the discounted cash flow method. Specifically, the Fair Values of the loans were calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows (consisting of quarterly interest payments, an annual loan commitment fee, and principal repayment upon demand of the loan) attributable to the loan using a market-based discount rate that accounts for the time value of money and the appropriate degree of risk inherent in the loans as of the various valuation dates. Included in our valuation of the Fair Value of the loans is a consideration for the credit risk of the loans on each date of issuance, based upon, among other considerations, Mr. Freibaum's and Mr. Michaels' stockholdings in the Company, outstanding loans and current and past compensation from the Company. For Mr. Freibaum's loans we valued the loans at each respective disbursement date and amendment date and used loan terms varying from six months to two years reflecting our estimation that repayment would require an orderly liquidation of Mr. Freibaum's other assets. For Mr. Michaels' loans, we valued the loan at its disbursement date based on its actual term. Accordingly, the compensation expense is measured as the difference between the Fair Values of the loans as compared to the face amount of the loans. Such calculated expenses are measured and recognizable at the date of such advances and as of the dates of amendments as there were no future service or employment requirements stated in the loan agreements. The total compensation expense is the aggregation of the Fair Value to face amount differences. Accordingly, we recorded the cumulative correction of the compensation expense of $15.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2008 and there was no impact to 2009.
The Glendale Matter
In the fall of 2007, a lawsuit (the "Glendale Matter") involving Caruso Affiliated Holdings, LLC as Plaintiff and GGP and GGP/Homart II, L.L.C. (one of our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates) (collectively, the "Defendants") in the Los Angeles Superior Court (the "Court") alleging violations of the California antitrust and unfair competition laws and tortious interference with prospective economic advantage was concluded. The Court entered judgment with respect to the interference with prospective economic advantage claim against Defendants in the amount of $74.2 million in compensatory damages, $15.0 million in punitive damages, and $0.2 million in court costs (the "Judgment Amount"). Defendants appealed the judgment and posted an appellate bond in April 2008 for $134.1 million, which was equal to 150% of the Judgment Amount. Additionally, in April 2008, GGPLP supplied cash as collateral to secure the appellate bond in the amount equal to 50% of the total bond amount or $67.1 million.
On December 19, 2008, the Defendants agreed to terms of a settlement and mutual release agreement with Caruso Affiliated Holdings LLC which released the Defendants from all past, present and future claims related to the Glendale Matter in exchange for a settlement payment of $48.0 million, which was paid from the appellate bond cash collateral account in January 2009. Concurrently, GGP agreed with its joint venture partner in GGP/Homart II, New York State Common Retirement Fund ("NYSCRF"), that GGP would not be reimbursed for any portion of this payment, and we would reimburse $5.5 million of costs to NYSCRF in connection with the settlement.

NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Accordingly, as of December 2008, the Company adjusted its liability for the Judgment Amount from $89.4 million to $48.0 million and reversed legal fees incurred by GGP/Homart II of $14.2 million that were previously recorded at 100% by GGP and post-judgment related interest expense of $7.0 million. The net impact of these items related to the settlement is a credit of $57.1 million reflected in litigation recovery in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for 2008. Also as a result of the settlement, the Company reflected its 50% share of legal costs that had previously been recorded at 100% as $7.1 million of additional expense reflected in Equity in income of Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income for 2008.
Foreign Currency Translation
The functional currencies for our international joint ventures are their local currencies. Assets and liabilities of these investments are translated at the rate of exchange in effect on the balance sheet date and operations are translated at the weighted average exchange rate for the period. Translation adjustments resulting from the translation of assets and liabilities are accumulated in stockholders' equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). Translation of operations is reflected in equity in income of Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. For example, significant estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to useful lives of assets, capitalization of development and leasing costs, provision for income taxes, recoverable amounts of receivables and deferred taxes, initial valuations and related amortization periods of deferred costs and intangibles, particularly with respect to acquisitions, impairment of long-lived assets and goodwill, valuation of debt of emerged entities and cost ratios and completion percentages used for land sales. Actual results could differ from these and other estimates.

Changes in gross asset (liability) balances in 2009 are the result of the allocation of provisions for impairment (Note 2) and our policy of writing off fully amortized intangible assets.
The gross asset balances of the in-place value of tenant leases are included in Buildings and equipment in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Acquired in-place at-market tenant leases are amortized over periods that approximate the related lease terms. The above-market and below-market tenant and ground leases as well as the real estate tax stabilization agreement intangible asset are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets and Accounts payable and accrued expenses as detailed in Note 11. Above and below-market lease values are amortized over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases (averaging approximately five years for tenant leases and approximately 45 years for ground leases).
Amortization/accretion of these intangible assets and liabilities, and similar assets and liabilities from our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates at our share, decreased our income (excluding the impact of noncontrolling interest and the provision for income taxes) by $62.6 million in 2009, $70.4 million in 2008 and $62.5 million in 2007.
Future amortization, including our share of such items from Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates, is estimated to decrease income (excluding the impact of noncontrolling interest and the provision for

NOTE 4 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND GAINS (LOSSES) ON DISPOSITIONS OF INTERESTS IN OPERATING PROPERTIES
On December 21, 2009, we sold one office building totaling approximately 38,400 square feet and 4.1995 acres of land located in Woodlands, Texas for a total sales price of $2.0 million, resulting in a total loss of $0.9 million.
On April 4, 2008, we sold one office building totaling approximately 16,500 square feet located in Las Vegas for a total sales price of $3.3 million, resulting in a total gain of $2.0 million (net of $0.5 million of noncontrolling interest).
On April 23, 2008, we sold two office buildings totaling approximately 390,000 square feet located in Maryland for a sales price of $94.7 million (including debt assumed of approximately $84 million), resulting in total gains of $28.8 million (net of $5.7 million of noncontrolling interest).
On August 21, 2008, we sold an office park consisting of three office buildings totaling approximately 73,500 square feet located in Maryland for a total sales price of $4.7 million, resulting in total gains of $0.8 million (net of $0.2 million of noncontrolling interest).
On September 29, 2008, we sold an office park consisting of five office buildings totaling approximately 306,500 square feet located in Maryland for a total sales price of $42.3 million, resulting in total gains of $14.4 million (net of $2.6 million of noncontrolling interest).
All of the 2008 dispositions are included in discontinued operations, (loss) gain on dispositions in our consolidated financial statements. For Federal income tax purposes, the two office buildings and one of the office parks located in Maryland were used as relinquished property in a like-kind exchange involving the acquisition of The Shoppes at The Palazzo.
We evaluated the operations of these properties pursuant to the requirements of the generally accepted accounting principles related to business combinations and concluded that the operations of these office buildings that were sold did not materially impact the prior period results and therefore have not reported any prior operations of these properties as discontinued operations in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 5 UNCONSOLIDATED REAL ESTATE AFFILIATES
The Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates include our noncontrolling investments in real estate joint ventures. Generally, we share in the profits and losses, cash flows and other matters relating to our investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates in accordance with our respective ownership percentages. We manage most of the properties owned by these joint ventures. As we have joint interest and control of these ventures with our venture partners and they have substantive participating rights in such ventures, we account for these joint ventures using the equity method. Some of the joint ventures have elected to be taxed as REITs. As described in Note 1, at December 31, 2009, we have three joint venture investments located outside the U.S. These investments, with an aggregate carrying amount of $221.0 million and $166.7 million at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, are managed

NOTE 5 UNCONSOLIDATED REAL ESTATE AFFILIATES (Continued)
by the respective joint venture partners in each country. Substantially all changes in 2009 and 2008 in the carrying amount of our investments in such international joint ventures have been due to currency fluctuations. As we also have substantial participation rights with respect to these international joint ventures, we account for them on the equity method. Finally, we entered into an agreement to sell our Costa Rica investment for $7.5 million, yielding a nominal gain that we expect will be recognized in the first quarter of 2010.
In June and July, 2009 we made capital contributions of $28.7 million and $57.5 million, respectively, to fund our portion of $172.2 million of joint venture mortgage debt which had reached maturity and which, due to the non-functioning credit markets, we were unable to satisfactorily extend or refinance. As of December 31, 2009, approximately $6.38 billion of indebtedness was secured by our Unconsolidated Properties, our share of which was approximately $3.12 billion. There can be no assurance that we will be able to refinance or restructure such debt (including the $635.9 million of debt maturing in 2010) on acceptable terms or otherwise, or that joint venture operations or contributions by us and/or our partners will be sufficient to repay such loans.
In certain circumstances, we have debt obligations in excess of our pro rata share of the debt of our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates ("Retained Debt"). This Retained Debt represents distributed debt proceeds of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates in excess of our pro rata share of the non-recourse mortgage indebtedness of such Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates. The proceeds of the Retained Debt which are distributed to us are included as a reduction in our investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates. Such Retained Debt totaled $158.2 million as of December 31, 2009 and $160.8 million as of December 31, 2008, and has been reflected as a reduction in our investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates. We are obligated, and through March 1, 2010 have fulfilled our obligation, to contribute funds to our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates in amounts sufficient to pay debt service on such Retained Debt. If we do not contribute such funds, our distributions from such Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates, or our interest in, will be reduced to the extent of such deficiencies. As of March 1, 2010, we do not anticipate an inability to perform on our obligations with respect to such Retained Debt.
In certain other circumstances, the Company, in connection with the debt obligations of certain Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates, has agreed to provide supplemental guarantees or master-lease commitments to provide to the debt holders additional credit-enhancement or security. As of December 31, 2009, we do not expect to be required to perform pursuant to any of such supplemental credit-enhancement provisions for our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates, either due to estimates of the current obligations represented by such provisions or as a result of the protections afforded us through our Chapter 11 Cases.
We recorded provisions for impairment related to our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, as presented in the table below. In addition, we recorded provisions for impairment related to our investments in The Shops at Circle T Ranch and Circle T Power Center joint ventures of $10.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.

On January 29, 2010, our Brazilian joint venture, Aliansce Shopping Centers S.A. ("Aliansce"), commenced trading on the Brazilian Stock Exchange, or BM&FBovespa, as a result of an initial public offering of Aliansce's common shares in Brazil. GGP did not sell any of its Aliansce shares in the offering and now has approximately a 31.4% ownership interest in Aliansce, which develops, owns and manages shopping centers in Brazil. In light of Aliansce becoming a public company in Brazil, we will change the manner in which we account for our share of Aliansce's results of operations in our consolidated financial statements. We will continue to apply the equity method to our interest in Aliansce; however, commencing in 2010 we will report our share of Aliansce's results in our financial statements one quarter in arrears due to the timing of the release of Aliansce's publicly available financial statements. As a result of the transition to this accounting treatment, GGP's financial statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2010 will not include any results from Aliansce's business and GGP's financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 will include only nine months of Aliansce's operations. We do not believe that this timing difference will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
The significant accounting policies used by the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates are the same as ours.

As previously discussed, on April 16 and 22, 2009, the Debtors filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11, which triggered defaults on substantially all debt obligations of the Debtors. However, under section 362 of Chapter 11, the filing of a bankruptcy petition automatically stays most actions against the debtor's estate. Absent an order of the Bankruptcy Court, these pre-petition liabilities are subject to settlement under a plan of reorganization, and therefore are presented as Liabilities subject to compromise on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Of the total amount of debt presented above, $7.30 billion is not subject to compromise, consisting primarily of the collateralized mortgages of the Non-Debtors and the Track 1A Debtors and the DIP Facility. Also, as discussed in Note 1, the $1.70 billion of mortgages of the Track 1B Debtors were reflected as subject to compromise at December 31, 2009 as the effective dates of their plans of reorganization did not occur as of December 31, 2009. We expect that such mortgage loan amounts will be reflected as not subject to compromise in 2010.
As of December 31, 2009, as described in Note 1, plans of reorganization for the Track 1A Debtors, owning 50 operating properties secured by approximately $4.65 billion of mortgage debt, had been declared effective. The Track 1 Plans for such Track 1A Debtors provided for, in exchange for payment of certain extension fees and cure of previously unpaid amounts due on the applicable mortgage loans (primarily, principal amortization otherwise scheduled to have been paid since the Petition Date), the extension of the secured mortgage loans at previously existing non-default interest rates. As a result of the extensions, none of these loans will have a maturity prior to January 1, 2014 and the weighted average remaining duration of the secured loans associated with these properties is 4.49 years. In conjunction with these extensions, certain financial and operating covenants and guarantees were created or reinstated, all to be effective with the bankruptcy emergence of the 2010
F-57

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 6 MORTGAGES, NOTES AND LOANS PAYABLE (Continued)
Track Debtors. Also in conjunction with such extensions, the Debtors for 13 properties (the "Special Consideration Properties") have until two days following emergence of the TopCo Debtors to determine whether the collateral property should be deeded to the respective lender or the property should be retained with further modified loan terms. Prior to emergence of the TopCo Debtors, the lenders related to the Special Consideration Properties control all cash produced by the property and we are required to pay any operating expense shortfall. In addition, prior to emergence of the TopCo Debtors, the respective lender can change the manager of the property or put the property in receivership and GGP has an unrestricted right to deed the property to the lender. Five of the Special Consideration Properties, representing $371.1 million in secured debt, are owned by the Track 1A Debtors.
The weighted-average interest rate including the effects of interest rate swaps, excluding the effects of deferred finance costs and using the contract rate prior to any defaults on such loans, on our mortgages, notes and loans payable was 5.31% at December 31, 2009 and 5.36% at December 31, 2008. The weighted average interest rate, using the contract rate prior to any defaults on such loans, on the remaining corporate unsecured fixed and variable rate debt and the revolving credit facility was 4.24% at December 31, 2009 and 4.29% at December 31, 2008. With respect to those loans and Debtors that remain in bankruptcy at December 31, 2009, we are currently recognizing interest expense on our loans based on contract rates in effect prior to bankruptcy as the Bankruptcy Court has ruled that interest payments based on such contract rates constitutes adequate protection to the secured lenders.
The Track 2010 Debtors, pursuant to their debt obligations, are required to comply with certain customary financial covenants and affirmative representations and warranties including, but not limited to, stipulations relating to leverage, net equity, maintenance of our REIT status, maintenance of our New York Stock Exchange (the 'Exchange") listing, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness and interest or fixed charge coverage ratios. Such financial covenants are calculated from applicable Company information computed in accordance with GAAP, subject to certain exclusions or adjustments, as defined. As discussed in the Debtors-in-possession section of Note 1, we were unable to repay or refinance certain debt as it became due, and our Chapter 11 cases have stayed the enforcement of the default provisions of such covenants.
Collateralized Mortgages, Notes and Loans Payable
As of December 31, 2009, $23.86 billion of land, buildings and equipment and developments in progress (before accumulated depreciation) have been pledged as collateral for our mortgages, notes and loans payable. Certain of these secured loans are cross-collateralized with other properties. Although substantially all of the $17.95 billion of fixed and variable rate secured mortgage notes and loans payable are non-recourse, $2.66 billion of such mortgages, notes and loans payable are recourse due to guarantees or other security provisions for the benefit of the note holder. Enforcement of substantially all of these security provisions are stayed by our Chapter 11 cases. In addition, certain mortgage loans as of December 31, 2009 contain other credit enhancement provisions (primarily master leases for all or a portion of the property) which have been provided by 2010 Track Debtors upon which we do not expect to perform during the pendency of our Chapter 11 Cases. Certain mortgage notes payable may be prepaid but are generally subject to a prepayment penalty equal to a yield-maintenance premium, defeasance or a percentage of the loan balance.

Corporate and Other Unsecured Loans
The TopCo Debtors have certain unsecured debt obligations which are described below. Although the contractual terms of such loans are summarized below, as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, the TopCo Debtors are not paying dividends or interest on such obligations. Satisfaction of these obligations will be addressed in the TopCo Debtors' plan of reorganization.
In April 2007, GGPLP sold $1.55 billion aggregate principal amount of 3.98% Exchangeable Notes. Interest on the Exchangeable Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning October 15, 2007. The Exchangeable Notes will mature on April 15, 2027 unless previously redeemed by GGPLP, repurchased by GGPLP or exchanged in accordance with their terms prior to such date. Prior to April 15, 2012, we will not have the right to redeem the Exchangeable Notes, except to preserve our status as a REIT. On or after April 15, 2012, we may redeem for cash all or part of the Exchangeable Notes at any time, at 100% of the principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. On each of April 15, 2012, April 15, 2017 and April 15, 2022, holders of the Exchangeable Notes may require us to repurchase the Exchangeable Notes, in whole or in part, for cash equal to 100% of the principal amount of Exchangeable Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
The Exchangeable Notes are exchangeable for GGP common stock or a combination of cash and common stock, at our option, upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, and any exchange currently is stayed by our Chapter 11 cases. The exchange rate for each $1,000 principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes is 11.27 shares of GGP common stock, which is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. See Note 2 for information regarding the impact on our 2008 and 2007 comparative consolidated financial statements as the result of the new accounting guidance adopted as of January 1, 2009 relating to certain convertible debt instruments.
The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "2006 Credit Facility").
The 2006 Credit Facility provides for a $2.85 billion term loan (the "Term Loan") and a $650 million revolving credit facility. However, as of December 31, 2009, $1.99 billion of the Term Loan and $590.0 million of the revolving credit facility was outstanding under the 2006 credit facility and no further amounts were available to be drawn due to our Chapter 11 cases. The 2006 Credit Facility had a scheduled maturity of February 24, 2010. The interest rate, as of December 31, 2009, was LIBOR plus 1.25%.
In May 2006 TRCLP sold $800.0 million of senior unsecured notes which provide for semi-annual, interest only payments at a rate of 6.75% and payment of the principal in full on May 1, 2013.
Concurrently with the 2006 Credit Facility transaction, GGP Capital Trust I, a Delaware statutory trust (the "Trust") and a wholly-owned subsidiary of GGPLP, completed a private placement of $200 million of trust preferred securities ("TRUPS"). The Trust also issued $6.2 million of Common Securities to GGPLP. The Trust used the proceeds from the sale of the TRUPS and Common Securities to purchase $206.2 million of floating rate Junior Subordinated Notes of GGPLP due 2036. Distributions on the TRUPS are equal to LIBOR plus 1.45%. Distributions are cumulative and accrue from the date of original issuance. The TRUPS mature on April 30, 2036, but may be redeemed beginning on April 30, 2011 if the Trust exercises its right to redeem a like amount of the Junior

NOTE 6 MORTGAGES, NOTES AND LOANS PAYABLE (Continued)
Subordinated Notes. The Junior Subordinated Notes bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.45%. Though the Trust is a wholly-owned subsidiary of GGPLP, we are not the primary beneficiary of the Trust and, accordingly, it is not consolidated for accounting purposes. As a result, we have recorded the Junior Subordinated Notes as Mortgages, Notes and Loans Payable and our common equity interest in the Trust as Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2009 and 2008.
In conjunction with the TRC Merger, we acquired certain publicly-traded unsecured debt which totaled $1.45 billion at December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Debtor-in-Possession Facility
On May 14, 2009, the Bankruptcy Court issued an order authorizing certain of the Debtors to enter into a Senior Secured Debtor in Possession Credit, Security and Guaranty Agreement among the Company, as co-borrower, GGP Limited Partnership, as co-borrower, certain of their subsidiaries, as guarantors, UBS AG, Stamford Branch, as agent, and the lenders party thereto (the "DIP Facility").
The DIP Facility, which closed on May 15, 2009, provides for an aggregate commitment of $400.0 million (the "DIP Term Loan"), which was used to refinance the $215.0 million remaining balance on the short-term secured loan and the remainder of which has been used to provide additional liquidity to the Debtors during the pendency of their Chapter 11 Cases. The DIP Facility provides that principal outstanding on the DIP Term Loan bears interest at an annual rate equal to LIBOR (subject to a minimum LIBOR floor of 1.5%) plus 12% and matures at the earlier of May 16, 2011 or the effective date of a plan of reorganization of the 2010 Track Debtors and has an outstanding balance of $400.0 million at December 31, 2009.
Subject to certain conditions being present, the Company will have the right to elect to repay all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of the DIP Term Loan, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all exit fees at maturity, by issuing (i) common stock of the Company to the lenders (the "Equity Conversion") or (ii) debt to the lenders, which would be issued for a three-year term, prepayable at any time without penalty or premium, and otherwise on terms substantially similar to those of the DIP Term Loan. Any Equity Conversion will be limited to the lenders' receipt of Company common stock equaling no more than (i) 8.0% of the Company common stock distributed in connection with the Debtors' plan of reorganization, as confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court (the "Plan of Reorganization") on a fully-diluted basis, or (ii) 9.9% of the Company common stock actually distributed in connection with the Plan of Reorganization on its effective date, without giving effect to common stock held back for the payment of contingencies. The DIP Credit Agreement contains customary non-financial covenants, representations and warranties, and events of default. Although the DIP Agreement contains no financial covenants, it does include obligations to periodically provide certain operating information concerning the Debtors directly to the DIP Agent.
Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds
We had outstanding letters of credit and surety bonds of $112.8 million as of December 31, 2009 and $286.2 million as of December 31, 2008. These letters of credit and bonds were issued primarily in connection with insurance requirements, special real estate assessments and construction obligations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
We elected to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), commencing with our taxable year beginning January 1, 1993. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including requirements to distribute at least 90% of our ordinary taxable income and to distribute to stockholders or pay tax on 100% of capital gains and to meet certain asset and income tests. As discussed in Note 1, we obtained Bankruptcy Court approval to distribute $0.19 per share (no more than 10% in cash) to our stockholders (paid on January 28, 2010) to satisfy such GGPI REIT distribution requirements for 2009.
As a REIT, we will generally not be subject to corporate level Federal income tax on taxable income we distribute currently to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to Federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. Even if we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income or property, and to Federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed taxable income. In addition, we are subject to rules which may impose corporate income tax on certain built-in gains recognized upon the disposition of assets owned by our subsidiaries where such subsidiaries (or other predecessors) had formerly been C corporations. These rules apply only where the disposition occurs within certain specified recognition periods. The properties subject to these rules are TRCLP properties that were associated with the private REIT/TRS restructuring described below and our Victoria Ward properties. However, to the extent that any such properties subject to the built-in gain tax are to be sold, we intend to utilize tax strategies when prudent, such as dispositions through like-kind exchanges to limit or offset the amount of such gains and therefore the amount of tax paid, although the market climate and our business needs may not allow for such strategies to be implemented.
We also have subsidiaries which we have elected to be treated as a TRS (also "TRS entities") and which are, therefore, subject to federal and state income taxes. Our primary TRS entities include GGMI and entities which own our master planned community properties as well as some operating properties. Current Federal income taxes of certain of these TRS entities are likely to increase in future years as we exhaust the net loss carryforwards of these entities and as certain master planned community developments are completed. Such increases could be significant.
Effective March 31, 2007, through a series of transactions, a private REIT owned by GGPLP was contributed to TRCLP and one of our TRS entities became a qualified REIT subsidiary of that private REIT ("the Private REIT/TRS Restructuring"). This transaction resulted in a $328.4 million decrease in our net deferred tax liabilities, an approximate $7.4 million increase in our current taxes payable and an approximate $321.0 million income tax benefit related to the properties now owned by that private REIT.

Realization of a deferred tax benefit is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income in future periods. Our net operating loss carryforwards are currently scheduled to expire in subsequent years through 2030. Some of the net operating loss carryforward amounts are subject to annual limitations under Section 382 of the Code. This annual limitation under Section 382 is subject to modification if a taxpayer recognizes what are called "built-in gain items." It is possible that the Company could, in the future, experience a change in control pursuant to Section 382 that could put additional limits on the benefit of deferred tax assets.

Each TRS and certain REIT entities subject to state income taxes is a tax paying component for purposes of classifying deferred tax assets and liabilities. As of December 31, 2009, the Company had gross deferred tax assets totaling $273.5 million, of which a valuation allowance of $40.6 million has been established against certain deferred tax assets, and gross deferred tax liabilities of $1.07 billion.

NOTE 7 INCOME TAXES (Continued)
The deferred tax liability associated with the master planned communities is largely attributable to the difference between the basis and value determined as the date of the acquisition of TRC in 2004 adjusted for sales that have occurred since that time. The cash cost related to this deferred tax liability is dependent upon the sales price of future land sales and the method of accounting used for income tax purposes. The deferred tax liability related to deferred income is the difference between the income tax method of accounting and the financial statement method of accounting for prior sales of land in our Master Planned Communities.
Although we believe our tax returns are correct, the final determination of tax examinations and any related litigation could be different than what was reported on the returns. In the opinion of management, we have made adequate tax provisions for years subject to examination. Generally, we are currently open to audit under the statute of limitations by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ending December 31, 2005 through 2009 and are open to audit by state taxing authorities for years ending December 31, 2004 through 2009. In the fourth quarter of 2008, we effectively settled with the IRS with respect to the audits for the years 2001 through 2005 for two of our taxable REIT subsidiaries. In February 2009, we were notified that the IRS had commenced examination of the year ended December 31, 2007 with respect to two taxable REIT subsidiaries. We received a letter of Income Tax Examination Changes ("30 Day Letter") for the two taxable REIT subsidiaries with the proposed changes amounting to additional tax of $128.1 million. We timely filed a protest disputing the proposed changes. In December 2009, we were notified that the same two taxable REIT subsidiaries are also under audit for the year ended December 31, 2008. It is the Company's position that the pertinent tax law in question has been properly applied and reflected in the income tax returns for both 2008 and 2007. We are unable to determine when the examinations will be resolved.
On January 1, 2007, we adopted a generally accepted accounting principle related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, which prescribes a recognition threshold that a tax position is required to meet before recognition in the financial statements and provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition issues.
At January 1, 2007, we had total unrecognized tax benefits of $135.1 million, excluding accrued interest, of which approximately $69 million would impact our effective tax rate. These unrecognized tax benefits increased our income tax liabilities by $82.1 million, increased goodwill by $28.0 million and cumulatively reduced retained earnings by $54.1 million. As of January 1, 2007, we had accrued interest of $11.9 million related to these unrecognized tax benefits and no penalties. Prior to adoption of the generally accepted accounting principle related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, we did not treat either interest or penalties related to tax uncertainties as part of income tax expense. With the adoption of the generally accepted accounting principle related to accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, we have chosen to change this accounting policy. As a result, we will recognize and report interest and penalties, if necessary, within our provision for income tax expense from January 1, 2007 forward. We recognized potential interest expense related to the unrecognized tax benefits of $3.7 million, $2.7 million and $7.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 we recognized previously unrecognized tax benefits, excluding accrued interest, of ($6.2) million, $7.0 million and $20 million, respectively. The recognition of the previously unrecognized tax benefits resulted in the reduction of interest expense accrued related to these amounts. At December 31, 2009, we had total unrecognized

Based on our assessment of the expected outcome of existing examinations or examinations that may commence, or as a result of the expiration of the statute of limitations for specific jurisdictions, it is reasonably possible that the related unrecognized tax benefits, excluding accrued interest, for tax positions taken regarding previously filed tax returns will materially change from those recorded at December 31, 2009. A material change in unrecognized tax benefits could have a material effect on our statements of income and comprehensive income. As of December 31, 2009, there is $94.3 million of unrecognized tax benefits, excluding accrued interest, which due to the reasons above, could significantly increase or decrease during the next twelve months.
Earnings and profits, which determine the taxability of dividends to stockholders, differ from net income reported for financial reporting purposes due to differences for Federal income tax reporting purposes in, among other things, estimated useful lives, depreciable basis of properties and permanent and temporary differences on the inclusion or deductibility of elements of income and deductibility of expense for such purposes.

Minimum future rentals exclude amounts which are payable by certain tenants based upon a percentage of their gross sales or as reimbursement of operating expenses and amortization of above and below-market tenant leases. Such operating leases are with a variety of tenants, the majority of which are national and regional retail chains and local retailers, and consequently, our credit risk is concentrated in the retail industry.
NOTE 9 TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Management and other fee revenues primarily represent management and leasing fees, development fees, financing fees and fees for other ancillary services performed for the benefit of certain of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates and for properties owned by third parties. Fees earned from the Unconsolidated Properties totaled $76.6 million in 2009, $74.3 million in 2008 and $83.4 million in 2007. Such fees are recognized as revenue when earned.
NOTE 10 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
Incentive Stock Plans
Prior to the Chapter 11 Cases, we granted qualified and non-qualified stock options and restricted stock to officers and key employees through the 2003 Incentive Stock Plan (the "2003 Incentive Plan"). The 2003 Incentive Plan provides for the issuance of 9,000,000 shares, of which 5,625,232 shares (4,878,500 stock options and 746,732 restricted shares) have been granted as of December 31, 2009, subject to certain customary adjustments to prevent dilution. Additionally, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors grants employment inducement awards to senior executives on a discretionary basis, and in the fourth quarter of 2008, granted 1,800,000 stock options to two senior executives. Stock options are granted by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors at an exercise price of not less than 100% of the Fair Value of our common stock on the date of the grant. The terms of the options are determined by the Compensation Committee.

NOTE 10 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS (Continued)
Prior to 2007, stock options generally vested 20% at the time of the grant and in 20% annual increments thereafter. In February 2007, however, in lieu of awarding options similar in size to prior years to two of our senior executives, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors accelerated the vesting of options held by these executives so that all such options became immediately vested and exercisable. As a result, the vesting of 705,000 options was accelerated and compensation expense of $4.1 million which would have been recognized in 2007 through 2010 was recognized in the first quarter of 2007.
Restricted Stock
Pursuant to the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan, we make restricted stock grants to certain employees and non-employee directors. The vesting terms of these grants are specific to the individual grant. The vesting terms vary in that a portion of the shares vest either immediately or on the first anniversary and the remainder vest in equal annual amounts over the next two to five years. Participating employees must remain employed for vesting to occur (subject to certain exceptions in the case of retirement). Shares that do not vest are forfeited. Dividends are paid on restricted stock and are not returnable, even if the underlying stock does not ultimately vest.
The following table summarizes restricted stock activity for the respective grant years as of and for the years ended December 31, 2009, 2008, and 2007.

Threshold-Vesting Stock Options
Under the 1998 Incentive Stock Plan (the "1998 Incentive Plan"), stock incentive awards to employees in the form of threshold-vesting stock options ("TSOs") have been granted. The exercise price of the TSO is the Current Market Price ("CMP") as defined in the 1998 Incentive Plan of our common stock on the date the TSO is granted. In order for the TSOs to vest, our common stock must achieve and sustain the applicable threshold price for at least 20 consecutive trading days at any time during the five years following the date of grant. Participating employees must remain employed until

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 10 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS (Continued)
vesting occurs in order to exercise the options. The threshold price is determined by multiplying the CMP on the date of grant by an Estimated Annual Growth Rate (7%) and compounding the product over a five-year period. TSOs granted in 2004 and thereafter must be exercised within 30 days of the vesting date. TSOs granted prior to 2004, all of which have vested, have a term of up to 10 years. Under the 1998 Incentive Plan, 8,163,995 options have been granted as of December 31, 2009, subject to certain customary adjustments to prevent dilution. No TSOs were granted in 2008 or 2009 and the 1998 Incentive Plan terminated December 31, 2008.

The Company has a $200 million per fiscal year common stock repurchase program which gives us the ability to acquire some or all of the shares of common stock to be issued upon the exercise of the TSOs or the Contingent Stock Agreement under which we assumed the obligations of TRC to issue shares of common stock to the beneficiaries thereunder (the "CSA") (Note 14). During 2008 and in 2009, no shares were repurchased and, during the pendency of our Chapter 11 Cases, no stock repurchases are expected.

Other Required Disclosures
Historical data, such as the past performance of our common stock and the length of service by employees, is used to estimate expected life of the stock options, TSOs and our restricted stock and represents the period of time the options or grants are expected to be outstanding. No TSOs were granted during the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and no stock options were granted during 2009. The Fair Values of TSOs granted in 2007 were estimated using the binomial method. The value of restricted stock grants is calculated as the average of the high and low stock prices on the date of the initial grant. The Fair Values of all other stock options were estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. These Fair Values are affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of highly complex and subjective variables. Expected volatilities are based on historical volatility of our stock price as well as that of our peer group, implied volatilities and various other factors. The weighted average estimated value of TSOs granted during 2007 and stock options granted during 2007 and 2008 were based on the following assumptions:

Compensation expense related to the Incentive Stock Plans, TSOs and restricted stock was $8.6 million in 2009, $6.8 million in 2008 and $16.9 million in 2007.
As of December 31, 2009, total compensation expense which had not yet been recognized related to nonvested options, TSOs and restricted stock grants was $14.7 million. Of this total, $8.4 million is expected to be recognized in 2010, $5.6 million in 2011 and $0.7 million in 2012. These amounts may be impacted by future grants, changes in forfeiture estimates or vesting terms, actual forfeiture rates which differ from estimated forfeitures and/or timing of TSO vesting.
Employee Stock Purchase Plan
The General Growth Properties, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "ESPP"), which was terminated effective June 30, 2009 and had been suspended from June 2008 through June 2009, was established to assist eligible employees in acquiring stock ownership interest in GGP. Under the ESPP, eligible employees made payroll deductions over a six-month purchase period. At the end of each six-month purchase period, the amounts withheld were used to purchase shares of our common stock at a purchase price equal to 85% of the lesser of the closing price of a share of a common stock on the first or last trading day of the purchase period. The ESPP was considered a compensatory plan in accordance with the generally accepted accounting principles related to sharebased payments. From inception through June 30, 2009, an aggregate of 1.7 million shares of our common stock had been purchased by eligible employees under the ESPP. Compensation expense related to the ESPP was $1.0 million in 2008 and $2.0 million in 2007. No compensation expense was recognized in 2009.

We sponsor the General Growth 401(k) Savings Plan (the "401(k) Plan") which permits all eligible employees to defer a portion of their compensation in accordance with the provisions of Section 401(k) of the Code. Subject to certain limitations (including an annual limit imposed by the Code), each participant is allowed to make before-tax contributions up to 50% of gross earnings, as defined. We add to a participant's account through a matching contribution up to 5% of the participant's annual earnings contributed to the 401(k) Plan. We match 100% of the first 4% of earnings contributed by each participant and 50% of the next 2% of earnings contributed by each participant. We recognized expense resulting from the matching contributions of $9.1 million in 2009, $10.7 million in 2008, and $10.2 million in 2007.

The Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan ("DRSP") was terminated on the Petition Date. In general, the DRSP had allowed participants to purchase our common stock from dividends received or additional cash investments. The stock was purchased at current market price, but no fees or commissions were charged to the participant. As of the Petition Date, an aggregate of 837,604 shares of our common stock had been issued under the DRSP.

NOTE 14 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the normal course of business, from time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings relating to the ownership and operations of our properties. In management's opinion, the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from such legal actions are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity.
We lease land or buildings at certain properties from third parties. The leases generally provide us with a right of first refusal in the event of a proposed sale of the property by the landlord. Rental payments are expensed as incurred and have, to the extent applicable, been straight-lined over the term of the lease. Contractual rental expense, including participation rent, was $19.0 million in 2009, $19.3 million in 2008 and $19.5 million in 2007, while the same rent expense excluding amortization of above and below-market ground leases and straight-line rents, as presented in our consolidated financial statements, was $12.7 million in 2009, $12.4 million in 2008 and $12.0 million in 2007.
We have, in the past, periodically entered into contingent agreements for the acquisition of properties. Each acquisition subject to such agreements was subject to satisfactory completion of due diligence and, in the case of property acquired under development, completion of the project. In conjunction with the acquisition of The Grand Canal Shoppes in 2004, we entered into an agreement (the "Phase II Agreement") to acquire the multi-level retail space that is part of The Shoppes at The Palazzo in Las Vegas, Nevada (The "Phase II Acquisition") which is connected to the existing Venetian

and the Sands Expo and Convention Center facilities and The Grand Canal Shoppes. The project opened on January 18, 2008. The acquisition closed on February 29, 2008 for an initial purchase price payment of $290.8 million, which was primarily funded with $250.0 million of new variable-rate short-term debt collateralized by the property and for Federal income tax purposes was used as replacement property in a like-kind exchange. The Phase II Agreement provides for additional purchase price payments based on net operating income, as defined, of the Phase II retail space. Such additional payments, if any, are to be made during the 30 months after closing with the final payment being subject to re-adjustment 48 months after closing. Although we have currently estimated that no additional amounts will be paid pursuant to the Phase II Agreement, the total final purchase price of the Phase II Acquisition could be different than the current estimate.
See Note 7 for our obligations related to uncertain tax positions for disclosure of additional contingencies.
The following table summarizes the contractual maturities of our long-term commitments. Both long-term debt and ground leases include the related purchase accounting Fair Value adjustments:

Contingent Stock Agreement
In conjunction with GGP's acquisition of The Rouse Company ("TRC") in November 2004, GGP assumed TRC's obligations under a CSA. TRC entered into the CSA in 1996 when it acquired The Hughes Corporation ("Hughes"). This acquisition included various assets, including Summerlin (the "CSA Assets"), a development in GGP's Master Planned Communities segment. The CSA is an unsecured obligation of GGP and therefore, GGP's obligations to the former Hughes owners or their successors (the "Beneficiaries") under the CSA are, and will be, subject to treatment in accordance with applicable requirements of the bankruptcy law and any plan of reorganization that may be confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court.
F-75
GENERAL GROWTH PROPERTIES, INC.
(Debtor-in-Possession)
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 14 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (Continued)
Under the terms of the CSA, GGP was required through August 2009 to issue shares of its common stock semi-annually (February and August) to the Beneficiaries with the number of shares to be issued in any period based on cash flows from the development and/or sale of the CSA Assets and GGP's stock price. The Beneficiaries' share of earnings from the CSA Assets is accounted for as a land sales operations expense. During 2009, GGP was not obligated to deliver any shares of its common stock under the CSA as the net development and sales cash flows were negative for the applicable periods. During 2008, 356,661 shares of GGP common stock (from treasury shares) were delivered to the Beneficiaries pursuant to the CSA.
Under the terms of the CSA, GGP is also required to make a final distribution to the Beneficiaries in 2010, following a final valuation of the remaining CSA Assets as of December 31, 2009. The CSA sets forth a methodology for establishing this final valuation and requires the payment, if any, be made in shares of GGP common stock. GGP would account for any final distribution to the Beneficiaries as an additional GGP investment in the CSA Assets (that is, contingent consideration). However, since GGP's plan of reorganization is still being developed, treatment of the CSA and the final distribution amount, if any, to the Beneficiaries cannot currently be determined and, therefore, no liability for any final distribution amount is probable or estimable at December 31, 2009. The carrying amount of the CSA Assets as reflected in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements is not the final valuation, and should not be relied upon for purposes of determining, or estimating, the final distribution amount, if any, to the Beneficiaries.
NOTE 15 RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On June 12, 2009, the FASB issued new generally accepted accounting guidance that amends the consolidation guidance applicable to variable interest entities. The amendments to the consolidation guidance affect all entities and enterprises currently within the scope of the previous guidance and are effective to the Company on January 1, 2010. Although the amendments significantly affected the overall consolidation analysis under previously issued guidance, we do not expect changes to our consolidated financial statements for this new guidance.
In June 2009, the FASB issued new generally accepted accounting guidance related to the accounting standards codification and the hierarchy of generally accepted accounting principles. The codification's content will carry the same level of authority, effectively superseding previous related guidance. The GAAP hierarchy has been modified to include only two levels of GAAP: authoritative and nonauthoritative. This new guidance was effective for us in the third quarter of 2009. The effect of the implementation of this new guidance on our consolidated financial statements resulted in the conversion of previously referenced specific accounting guidance to a "plain English" reference.
We have two business segments which offer different products and services. Our segments are managed separately because each requires different operating strategies or management expertise. We do not distinguish or group our consolidated operations on a geographic basis. Further, all material

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 16 SEGMENTS (Continued)
operations are within the United States and no customer or tenant comprises more than 10% of consolidated revenues. Our reportable segments are as follows:
The operating measure used to assess operating results for the business segments is Real Estate Property Net Operating Income ("NOI") which represents the operating revenues of the properties less property operating expenses, exclusive of depreciation and amortization and, with respect to our retail and other segment, provisions for impairment. Management believes that NOI provides useful information about a property's operating performance.
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2, except that we report Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates using the proportionate share method rather than the equity method. Under the proportionate share method, our share of the revenues and expenses of the Unconsolidated Properties are combined with the revenues and expenses of the Consolidated Properties. Under the equity method, our share of the net revenues and expenses of the Unconsolidated Properties are reported as a single line item, Equity in income of Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates, in our Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income. This difference affects only the reported revenues and operating expenses of the segments and has no effect on our reported net earnings. In addition, other revenue includes the NOI of discontinued operations and is reduced by the NOI attributable to our noncontrolling interest partners in consolidated joint ventures.
The total cash expenditures for additions to long-lived assets for the Master Planned Communities segment was $78.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, $166.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2008 and $243.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2007. Similarly, cash expenditures for long-lived assets for the Retail and Other segment was $252.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, $1.19 billion for the year ended December 31, 2008 and $1.50 billion for the year ended December 31, 2007. Such amounts for the Master Planned Communities segment and the Retail and Other segment are included in the amounts listed as Land/residential development and acquisitions expenditures and Acquisition/development of real estate and property additions/improvements, respectively, in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
The total amount of goodwill, as presented on our Consolidated Balance Sheets, is included in our Retail and Other segment.

As more fully described in Note 2, the Company, under applicable GAAP guidance, was deemed to incur compensation expense as a result of a series of loans made to two officers of the Company by an affiliate of certain Bucksbaum family trusts. The independent members of the Company's Board of Directors learned of these loans in October 2008 and the aggregate deemed compensation expense amount of approximately $15.4 million, before noncontrolling interest, was recorded as a general and administrative expense (a component of operating income) in the fourth quarter of 2008. This amount is a cumulative correction of an error as no expense amounts for these loans were recorded or reflected in the above schedules of unaudited quarterly financial information for the first, second or third quarters of 2008. Had the deemed compensation expense been recorded in the applicable periods, operating income would have declined by approximately $2.9 million, $59 thousand and $12.1 million, respectively, for the first, second and third quarters of 2008, respectively. For net income, which is presented net of noncontrolling interest, net income would have been lower by approximately $2.4 million, $50 thousand and $10.1 million for the first, second and third quarters of 2008, respectively. If this deemed expense had been recorded in the applicable quarters as just discussed rather than as a correction of an error in the fourth quarter of 2008, fourth quarter 2008 operating income would have increased by the full amount of the correction recorded ($15.4 million) and net income (presented net of noncontrolling interest) would have increased by $12.8 million. We have assessed the impacts to the previously reported quarters of 2008 (and the related year-to-date 2008 amounts), and the impact of the cumulative correction recorded in the fourth quarter of 2008, and concluded that all such impacts are immaterial. Accordingly, we have determined that no restatement of previously issued financial statements or information is necessary and, therefore, no such restatement is reflected in the above presentation of unaudited quarterly financial information for the deemed compensation expense correction recorded.
