PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of General Growth Properties, Inc. ("GGP" or the "Company") and related notes, as included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K (this "Annual Report"). The terms "we," "us" and "our" may also be used to refer to GGP and its subsidiaries (or, in certain contexts, the Predecessor (as defined below) and its subsidiaries). GGP, a Delaware corporation, was organized in July 2010 and is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, referred to as a "REIT". GGP is the successor registrant, by merger, on November 9, 2010 (the "Effective Date") to GGP, Inc. (the "Predecessor"). The Predecessor had filed for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code ("Chapter 11") and emerged from bankruptcy, pursuant to a plan of reorganization (the "Plan") on the Effective Date as described below.
On January 12, 2012, we completed the spin-off (the "RPI Spin-Off") of Rouse Properties, Inc. ("RPI"), which now owns a 30-mall portfolio of "Class B properties", totaling approximately 21 million square feet. The RPI Spin-Off was accomplished through a special dividend of the common stock of RPI to holders of GGP common stock as of December 30, 2011. Subsequent to the spin-off, we retained an approximately 1% interest in RPI. Because RPI is presented as part of our continuing operations as of December 31, 2011, the consolidated financial information presented herein includes RPI for all periods presented. However, unless otherwise indicated, the description of our regional malls and related metrics herein exclude RPI for all periods presented.
Our Company and Strategy
We are a leading real estate owner and operator of high quality regional malls with an ownership interest in 136 regional malls in 41 states as of December 31, 2011, comprising 58 million square feet of gross leasable area, or GLA, excluding anchor tenants. Based on the number of regional malls in our portfolio and GLA, we are the second largest owner of regional malls in the United States.
Of our 136 regional malls, 78 are considered Class A regional malls and have average tenant sales exceeding $575 per square foot, representing 75% of our NOI (as defined in Item 6). These high quality malls include:
- •
- Ala Moana in Honolulu, Hawaii
- •
- Fashion Show in Las Vegas, Nevada
- •
- Natick Mall in Natick (Boston), Massachusetts
- •
- Tyson's Galleria in Tysons, Virginia
- •
- Park Meadows in Lone Tree (Denver), Colorado
- •
- Water Tower Place in Chicago, Illinois
More broadly, we have an interest in 125 of the 600 regional malls in the country with the highest sales per square foot. These malls are located in core markets defined by population density, household growth, and a high-income demographic. Together, these regional malls had 2011 average tenant sales per square foot of $505.
In 2011, we saw a strengthening of lease spreads across our portfolio, with comparable mall average tenant sales per square foot, which we refer to as "mall productivity", increasing 8% in 2011 over 2010. We see increasing productivity and revenues through leasing activity within our regional malls as a significant opportunity for growth. In addition, we believe that the limited supply of new
1
Table of Contents
mall space in the last five years and lack of new development pipeline will further increase our productivity and help us to increase our occupancy levels.
Our long-term business strategy is to own and operate high quality regional malls in the United States. The regional malls we own and operate generally exhibit the following attributes:
- •
- located in markets or communities that have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, positive demographic trends, such as above-average levels of employment and disposable income;
- •
- high and relatively stable occupancy levels comprised of a balanced mix of anchor and in-line retailers subject to long-term leases, restaurants and other amenities; and
- •
- professionally managed by an on-site team dedicated to maintaining and improving the mall's operations and competitive advantages.
We believe our long term strategy will provide our shareholders with a compelling risk-adjusted total return comprised of dividends and share price appreciation.
Transactions
During 2011, we successfully completed transactions promoting our long-term strategy as summarized below (figures shown represent our share):
- •
- decreased our borrowing costs and lengthened our overall remaining term-to-maturity by refinancing $2.6 billion of mortgage notes;
- •
- approved the spin-off to our shareholders of 30 Class B regional malls in the form of a special taxable dividend of shares of RPI. The transaction was consummated on January 12, 2012 and decreased our outstanding mortgage notes by $1.1 billion;
- •
- sold, or transferred to the mortgage holder, whole or partial interests in approximately 11.5 million square feet of gross leasable area comprised of regional malls for $879.7 million including property level debt of $752.1 million;
- •
- acquired whole or partial interests in approximately 2.45 million square feet of gross leasable area comprised of regional malls, anchor pads and big box stores, for approximately $168.4 million, including the assumption of $34.7 million of property-level debt;
- •
- formed a joint venture partnership with Kimco Realty to redevelop Owings Mills Mall in Owings Mills, Maryland, a one-million square foot regional mall;
- •
- opened 28 new anchor/big boxes totaling approximately 920,000 square feet and three department stores totaling 402,000 square feet; and
- •
- formed a joint venture partnership with the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP) to purchase Plaza Frontenac in Frontenac (St. Louis), Missouri. We contributed St. Louis Galleria to the joint venture and CPP contributed $83.0 million in cash.
We will continue to execute transactions to achieve our long-term strategy of enhancing the quality of our portfolio and maximizing total returns for our shareholders. Our key objectives include the following:
- •
- increase the permanent occupancy of the regional mall portfolio, including converting temporary leases to permanent leases, which have longer contractual terms and significantly higher minimum rents and tenant recovery rates;
- •
- lease vacant space;
2
Table of Contents
- •
- opportunistically acquire whole or partial interests in high-quality regional malls and anchor pads that improve the overall quality of our portfolio;
- •
- commence several redevelopment projects within our portfolio;
- •
- form joint ventures with institutional investors to acquire partial interests in regional malls, either currently owned by us or through a new acquisition;
- •
- dispose of properties in our portfolio that do not fit within our long-term strategy, including certain of our office properties, retail strip centers and regional malls; and
- •
- continue to refinance our maturing debt, and certain debt prepayable without penalty, with the goal of lowering our overall borrowing costs and managing future maturities.
On February 23, 2012, we signed a definitive agreement for the acquisition of 11 Sears anchor pads within our portfolio for $270 million. This portfolio represents a significant opportunity to recapture valuable real estate within our portfolio and enhances several expansion and redevelopment opportunities, including re-tenanting the anchor space and adding new in-line GLA. The acquisition is expected to close in the second quarter of 2012 subject to customary closing conditions.
NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF OUR BUSINESS
Our Business
GGP, through its subsidiaries and affiliates, operates, manages, develops and acquires retail and other rental properties, primarily regional malls, which are predominantly located throughout the United States. GGP also holds assets in Brazil through an investment in an Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliate (as defined below). Substantially all of our business is conducted through GGP Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership" or "GGPLP"). As of December 31, 2011, GGP holds approximately a 99% common equity ownership (without giving effect to the potential conversion of the Preferred Units as defined below) of the Operating Partnership, while the remaining 1% is held by limited partners that indirectly include family members of the original stockholders of the Predecessor and certain previous contributors of properties to the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership also has preferred units of limited partnership interest (the "Preferred Units") outstanding.
In this Annual 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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") as the "Consolidated Properties." We also hold some properties 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".
Retail and Other
We operate in a single reportable segment, which we term Retail and Other, which consists of regional malls, retail centers, office and industrial buildings and mixed-use and other properties. Our portfolio of regional malls and other rental properties represents a collection of retail offerings that are targeted to a range of market sizes and consumer tastes. Our Consolidated Financial Statements, beginning on page F-1 of this Annual Report, includes financial information for our business.
A detailed listing of the principal properties in our retail portfolio is included in Item 2 of this Annual Report.
For the year ended December 31, 2011, our largest tenant (based on common parent ownership) accounted for approximately 3% of consolidated rents. Of the approximately 58 million square feet of GLA, which excludes anchor tenants (see Item 2 for anchor tenants GLA), four tenants (The GAP,
3
Table of Contents
Limited Brands, Abercrombie & Fitch Stores, and Foot Locker) occupied, in the aggregate, approximately 10% of our GLA in 2011.
In addition to regional malls, as of December 31, 2011, we own 13 community shopping centers totaling 1.6 million square feet, primarily in the Western region of the United States, as well as 26 stand-alone office buildings totaling 2.2 million square feet, concentrated in Columbia, Maryland and Las Vegas, Nevada.
We also currently hold non-controlling ownership interests in a public Brazilian real estate operating company, Aliansce Shopping Centers (ticker ALSC3), and a large regional mall (Shopping Leblon) in Rio de Janeiro.
Competition
The nature and extent of the competition we face varies from property to property. 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 portfolio of retail properties, we compete for retail tenants. We believe the principal factors that retailers consider in making their leasing decision include:
- •
- location of properties, including consumer demographics;
- •
- total number and geographic distribution of properties;
- •
- strength and diversity of retailers and anchor tenants at the shopping centers;
- •
- management and operational expertise;
- •
- aesthetic environment of the shopping center; and
- •
- rental rates.
As discussed above, we own and interest in 125 of the 600 regional malls in the country with the highest sales per square foot. These malls are located in core markets defined by population density, household growth, and a high-income demographic. Approximately one of every three U.S. households with an income of greater than $100,000 a year is located within 10 miles of one of these malls. We frequently are able to offer "first-to-market" stores (the first location of a store in a particular region or city) in these core markets that enhance the reputation of our regional malls as premier shopping destinations. For example, in 2011, the first Crate and Barrel and H&M stores in Utah opened in our Fashion Place Mall.
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. Retailers are looking to expand in the highest traffic centers, and we believe regional malls with the optimal mix of retailers, dining and entertainment options typically have high traffic. Further, over the last several years we have not seen any new major mall development and do not expect to see any new mall development in the near term based on the current pipeline.
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 properties. 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, we believe that our properties are viewed favorably among prospective tenants.

Environmental Matters
Under various Federal, state and local laws and regulations, an owner of real estate may be liable for the costs of remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on such real estate. These laws may impose liability without regard to whether the owner knew of the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. The costs of remediation may be substantial and may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell or borrow against such real estate as collateral. In connection with the 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 a Phase I environmental site assessment, which is intended to evaluate the environmental condition of the subject property and its surroundings. Phase I environmental assessments typically include a historical review, a public records review, a site visit and interviews, but do not include sampling or subsurface investigations.
To date, the Phase I environmental site assessments have not revealed any recognized environmental conditions that would have a material adverse effect on our overall business, financial condition or results of operations. However, it is possible that these assessments do not reveal all potential environmental liabilities or that conditions have changed since the assessment was prepared (typically, at the time the property was purchased or developed).
See Risk Factors regarding additional discussion of environmental matters.
Other Policies
The following is a discussion of our investment policies, financing policies, conflict of interest policies and policies with respect to certain other activities. One or more of these policies may be amended or rescinded from time to time without a stockholder vote.
Investment Policies
Our business is to own and invest in real estate assets. The Company elected to be treated as a REIT in connection with the filing of its tax return for 2011, subject to GGP's ability to meet the requirements of a REIT at the time of election. REIT limitations restrict us from making an investment that would cause our real estate assets to be less than 75% of our total assets. In addition, at least 75% of our gross income must be derived directly or indirectly from investments relating to real property or mortgages on real property, including "rents from real property," dividends from other REITs and, in certain circumstances, interest from certain types of temporary investments. At least 95% of our income must be derived from such real property investments, and from dividends, interest and gains from the sale or dispositions of stock or securities or from other combinations of the foregoing.
Subject to REIT limitations, we may invest in the securities of other issuers in connection with acquisitions of indirect interests in real estate. Such an investment would normally be in the form of general or limited partnership or membership interests in special purpose partnerships and limited liability companies that own one or more properties. We may, in the future, acquire all or substantially all of the securities or assets of other REITs, management companies or similar entities where such investments would be consistent with our investment policies.
Financing Policies
We do not have a policy limiting the number or amount of mortgages that may be placed on any particular property. Mortgage financing instruments, however, usually limit additional indebtedness on those properties. Typically, we invest in or form separate legal entities to assist us in obtaining permanent financing at attractive terms. Long term financing may be structured as a mortgage loan on a single property, or on a group of properties, and generally requires us to provide a mortgage interest
5
Table of Contents
on the property in favor of an institutional third party or as a securitized financing. For securitized financings, we create separate legal entities to own the properties. These legal entities are structured so that they would not necessarily be consolidated with us in the event we would ever become subject to a bankruptcy proceeding or liquidation. We decide upon the structure of the financing based upon the best terms then available to us and whether the proposed financing is consistent with our other business objectives. For accounting purposes, we include the outstanding securitized debt of legal entities owning consolidated properties as part of our consolidated indebtedness.
We must comply with the covenants contained in our financing agreements. We are party to a revolving credit facility and publically traded bonds that requires us to satisfy certain affirmative and negative covenants and to meet financial ratios and tests, which may include ratios and tests based on leverage, interest coverage and net worth.
If our Board of Directors determines to seek additional capital, we may raise that capital through additional public equity offerings, public debt offerings, debt financing, creating joint ventures with existing ownership interests in properties, retention of cash flows or a combination of these methods. Our ability to retain cash flows is limited by the requirement for REITs to pay tax on or distribute 100% of their capital gains income and distribute at least 90% of their taxable income. Our desire is to avoid entity level U.S. federal income tax by distributing 100% of our capital gains and ordinary taxable income.
In 2011, we implemented our dividend reinvestment plan in which all stockholders are entitled to participate. However, we may determine to pay dividends in a combination of cash and shares of common stock. We must also take into account taxes that would be imposed on undistributed taxable income.
If our Board of Directors determines to raise additional equity capital, it may, without stockholder approval, issue additional shares of common stock or other capital stock. Our Board of Directors may issue a number of shares up to the amount of our authorized capital in any manner and on such terms and for such consideration as it deems appropriate. Such securities may be senior to the outstanding classes of common stock. Such securities also may include additional classes of preferred stock, which may be convertible into common stock. The Plan Sponsors have preemptive rights to purchase our common stock as necessary to allow them to maintain their respective proportional ownership interest in GGP on a fully diluted basis. Any such offering could dilute a stockholder's investment in us and may make it more difficult to raise equity capital.
Conflict of Interest Policies
We maintain policies and have entered into agreements designed to reduce or eliminate potential conflicts of interest. We have adopted governance principles governing our affairs and the Board of Directors, as well as written charters for each of the standing committees of the Board of Directors. In addition, we have a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which applies to all of our officers, directors, and employees. At least a majority of the members of our Board of Directors must qualify as independent under the listing standards for NYSE companies. Any transaction between us and any director, officer or 5% stockholder must be approved pursuant to our Related Party Transaction Policy. As a result of the Plan, Brookfield is our largest stockholder.
Policies With Respect To Certain Other Activities
We intend to make investments which are consistent with our qualification as a REIT, unless the Board of Directors determines that it is no longer in our best interests to so qualify as a REIT. We have authority to offer shares of our capital stock or other securities in exchange for property. We also have authority to repurchase or otherwise reacquire our shares or any other securities. We may issue shares of our common stock, or cash at our option, to holders of units of limited partnership interest in
6
Table of Contents
the Operating Partnership in future periods upon exercise of such holders' rights under the Operating Partnership agreement. Our policy prohibits us from making any loans to our directors or executive officers for any purpose. We may make loans to the joint ventures in which we participate.
We intend to borrow money as part of our business, and we also may issue senior securities, purchase and sell investments, offer securities in exchange for property and repurchase or reacquire shares or other securities in the future. To the extent we engage in these activities, we will comply with applicable law.
GGP makes reports to its security holders in accordance with the NYSE rules which include financial statements certified by independent registered public accounting firms, as required by the NYSE.
We do not have policies in place with respect to making loans to other persons (other than our conflict of interest policies described above), investing in the securities of other issuers for the purpose of exercising control and underwriting the securities of other issuers, and we do not currently, and do not intend to, engage in these activities.
Bankruptcy and Reorganization
In April 2009, the Predecessor and certain of its domestic subsidiaries (the "Debtors") filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code in the bankruptcy court of the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court"). During the remainder of 2009 and to the Effective Date, the Debtors operated as "debtors in possession" under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and the applicable provisions of Chapter 11. In general, as debtors in possession, we were authorized under Chapter 11 to continue to operate as an ongoing business.
On October 21, 2010, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Plan. Pursuant to the Plan, on the Effective Date, the Predecessor merged with a wholly-owned subsidiary of New GGP, Inc. and New GGP, Inc. was re-named General Growth Properties, Inc. Also pursuant to the Plan, prepetition creditor claims were satisfied in full and equity holders received newly issued common stock in New GGP, Inc. and in Howard Hughes Corporation ("HHC"). After that distribution, HHC became a publicly-held company, majority-owned by the Predecessor's previous stockholders. GGP has no remaining interest in HHC as of the Effective Date.
On the Effective Date, the Plan Sponsors, Blackstone and Texas Teachers owned a majority of the outstanding common stock of GGP. The Predecessor common stockholders held approximately 317 million shares of GGP common stock at the Effective Date; whereas, the Plan Sponsors, Blackstone, Texas Teachers held approximately 644 million shares of GGP common stock on such date. Notwithstanding such majority ownership, the Plan Sponsors entered into certain agreements that limited their discretion with respect to affiliate, change of control and other stockholder transactions or votes. In addition, 120 million warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase our common stock were issued to the Plan Sponsors and Blackstone at exercise prices of $10.50 and $10.75 per share. The estimated $835.8 million fair value of the Warrants was recognized as a liability on the Effective Date. Subsequent to the Effective Date, changes in the fair value of the Warrants have been recognized in earnings and pursuant to the terms of the agreement, adjustments to the exercise price and conversion ratio of the Warrants have been made as of a result of stock dividends and the RPI Spin-Off.
Employees
As of January 25, 2012, we had approximately 1,750 employees.
Insurance
We have comprehensive liability, fire, flood, extended coverage and rental loss with respect to our portfolio of retail properties. Our management believes that such insurance provides adequate coverage.

Table of Contents
Qualification as a Real Estate Investment Trust and Taxability of Distributions
The Predecessor qualified as a real estate investment trust pursuant to the requirements contained in Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Predecessor for 2009, and the Company for 2010 and 2011, met their distribution requirements to its common stockholders as provided for in Section 857 of the Code wherein a dividend declared in October, November or December but paid in January of the following year will be considered a prior year dividend for all purposes of the Code (Note 8). The Company elected to be taxed as a REIT commencing with the taxable year beginning July 1, 2010, its date of incorporation and the Company intends to maintain REIT status, and therefore our operations will not be subject to Federal tax on its real estate investment trust taxable income. A schedule detailing the taxability of dividends for 2011, 2010 and 2009 has been presented in Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
GGP believes that it is a domestically controlled qualified investment entity as defined by the Code. However, because its shares are publicly traded, no assurance can be given that the Company is or will continue to be a domestically controlled qualified investment entity.
Securities and Exchange Commission Investigation
By letter dated January 9, 2012, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") notified the Company that it had completed its investigation into possible violations of proscriptions on insider trading under the federal securities laws by certain former officers and directors and that the SEC does not intend to recommend any enforcement action.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Business Risks
Regional and local economic conditions may adversely affect our business
Our real property investments are influenced by the regional and local economy, which may be negatively impacted by increased unemployment, industry slowdowns, lack of availability of consumer credit, increased levels of consumer debt, poor housing market conditions, adverse weather conditions, natural disasters, plant closings, and other factors. Similarly, local real estate conditions, such as an oversupply of, or a reduction in demand for, retail space or retail goods, and the supply and creditworthiness of current and prospective tenants may affect the ability of our properties to generate significant revenue.
8
Table of Contents
Economic conditions, especially in the retail sector, may have an adverse effect on our revenues and available cash
Unemployment, weak income growth, tight credit and the need to pay down existing obligations may negatively impact consumer spending. Given these economic conditions, we believe there is a risk that the sales at stores operating in our malls may be adversely affected. This may hinder our ability to implement our strategies and may have an unfavorable effect on our operations and our ability to attract new tenants.
We may be unable to lease or re-lease space in our properties on favorable terms or at all
Our results of operations depend on our ability to continue to strategically lease space in our properties, including re-leasing space in properties where leases are expiring, optimizing our tenant mix or leasing properties on more economically favorable terms. Because approximately eight to nine percent of our total leases expire annually, we are continually focused on our ability to lease properties and collect rents from tenants. Similarly, we are pursuing a strategy of replacing expiring short-term leases with long-term leases. If the sales at certain stores operating in our regional malls 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, some of our leases are fixed-rate leases, and we may not be able to collect rent sufficient to meet our costs. Because substantially all of our income is derived from rentals of real property, our income and available cash would be adversely affected if a significant number of tenants are unable to meet their obligations.
The bankruptcy or store closures of national tenants, which are tenants with chains of stores in many of our properties, may adversely affect our revenues
Our leases generally do not contain provisions designed to ensure the creditworthiness of the tenant, and in recent years a number of companies in the retail industry, including some of our tenants, have declared bankruptcy or voluntarily closed certain of their stores. We may be unable to re-lease such space or to re-lease it on comparable or more favorable terms. As a result, the bankruptcy or closure of a national tenant may adversely affect our revenues.
Certain co-tenancy provisions in our lease agreements may result in reduced rent payments, which may adversely affect our operations and occupancy
Certain of our lease agreements include a co-tenancy provision which allows the tenant to pay a reduced rent amount and, in certain instances, terminate the lease, if we fail to maintain certain occupancy levels. Therefore, if occupancy or tenancy falls below certain thresholds, rents we are entitled to receive from our retail tenants could be reduced and may limit our ability to attract new tenants.
It may be difficult to sell real estate quickly, and transfer restrictions apply to some of our properties
Equity real estate investments are relatively illiquid, which may limit our ability to strategically change 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 our 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
9
Table of Contents
foreclosure of a mortgage on a property or inability to sell a property could adversely affect the level of cash available to us.
Our business is dependent on perceptions by retailers and shoppers of the convenience and attractiveness of our retail properties, and our inability to maintain a positive perception may adversely affect our revenues
We are dependent on perceptions by retailers or shoppers of the safety, convenience and attractiveness of our retail properties. If retailers and shoppers perceive competing retail properties and other retailing options such as the internet to be more convenient or of a higher quality, our revenues may be adversely affected.
We redevelop and expand properties, and this activity is subject to risks due to various economic factors that are beyond our control
Capital investment to expand or redevelop our properties will be an ongoing part of our strategy going forward. In connection with such projects, we will be subject to various risks, including the following:
- •
- we may not have sufficient capital to proceed with planned redevelopment or expansion activities;
- •
- we may abandon redevelopment or expansion activities already under way, which may result in additional cost recognition;
- •
- construction costs of a project may exceed original estimates or available financing, possibly making the project unfeasible or unprofitable;
- •
- we may not be able to obtain zoning, occupancy or other required governmental permits and authorizations;
- •
- occupancy rates and rents at a completed project may not meet projections and, therefore, the project may not be profitable; and
- •
- we may not be able to obtain anchor store, mortgage lender and property partner approvals, if applicable, for expansion or redevelopment activities.
If redevelopment, expansion or reinvestment projects are unsuccessful, our investments in those projects may not be fully recoverable from future operations or sales.
We are in a competitive business
There are numerous shopping facilities that compete with our properties in attracting retailers to lease space. In addition, retailers at our properties face continued competition from retailers at other regional malls, outlet malls and other discount shopping centers, discount shopping clubs, catalog companies, and through internet sales and telemarketing. Competition of these types could adversely affect our revenues and cash flows.
We compete with other major real estate investors with significant capital for attractive investment opportunities. These competitors include REITs, investment banking firms and private institutional investors.
Our ability to realize our strategies and capitalize on our competitive strengths are dependent on our ability to effectively operate a large portfolio of high quality malls, maintain good relationships with our tenants and consumers, and remain well-capitalized, and our failure to do any of the foregoing could affect our ability to compete effectively in the markets in which we operate.

Table of Contents
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 or other disasters, including hurricanes and earthquakes. Furthermore, many of our properties are located in coastal regions, and would therefore be affected by any future increases in sea levels. For example, certain of our properties are located in California or in other areas with higher risk of earthquakes.
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 or other acts of violence may 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. Such a resulting decrease in retail demand could make it difficult for us to renew or re-lease 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.
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 third parties for bodily injury or property damage (investigation and/or 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 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, lease or borrow with respect to the real estate. 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 certain 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 certain 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.
Some potential losses are not insured
We carry comprehensive liability, fire, flood, earthquake, terrorism, extended coverage and rental loss and environmental 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, and certain environmental conditions not discovered within the applicable policy period, which generally are not insured. If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of
11
Table of Contents
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, this may have an impact on our consumers' disposable income. This may place temporary pressure on retailer sales and margins as their costs rise and we may be unable to pass the costs along to the consumer, which in turn may affect our ability to collect rents or renew spaces at higher overall rents. In addition, inflation may also impact our overall costs of operation. Many but not all of our leases have fixed amounts for recoveries and if our costs rise we may not be able to pass these costs on to our tenants. However, over the long term, substantially all of our tenant leases contain provisions designed to partially mitigate the negative impact of inflation as discussed in Item 7 below, which discussion is incorporated by reference here.
Inflation also poses a risk to us due to the possibility 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. 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.
Organizational Risks
We are a holding company with no operations of our own and will depend on our subsidiaries for cash
Our operations are conducted almost entirely through our subsidiaries. Our ability to make dividends or distributions in connection with being a REIT is highly dependent on the earnings of and the receipt of funds from our subsidiaries through dividends or distributions, and our ability to generate cash to meet our debt service obligations is further limited by our subsidiaries' ability to make such dividends, distributions or intercompany loans. Our subsidiaries' ability to pay any dividends or distributions to us are limited by their obligations to satisfy their own obligations to their creditors and preferred stockholders before making any dividends or distributions to us. In addition, Delaware law imposes requirements that may restrict our ability to pay dividends to holders of our common stock.
We share control of some of our properties with other investors and may have conflicts of interest with those investors
For the Unconsolidated Properties, we are required to make 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, to make distributions, as well as to bankruptcy decisions related to the Unconsolidated Properties and related joint ventures. Also, the assets of Unconsolidated Properties may be used as collateral to secure loans of our joint venture partners, and the indemnity we may be entitled to from our joint venture partners could be worth less than the value of those assets. 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 inducements to the other investors to obtain a favorable resolution.
12
Table of Contents
In addition, various restrictive provisions and rights apply to sales or transfers of interests in our jointly owned properties. As such, we might be required to make decisions about buying or selling interests in a property or properties at a time that is not desirable.
Bankruptcy of our 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 malls could materially and adversely affect the relevant property or properties. Pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, we would be precluded from taking some actions affecting the estate of the other investor without prior court approval which would, in most cases, entail prior notice to other parties and a hearing. 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 would otherwise be required.
We are impacted by tax-related obligations to some of our partners
We own certain 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 jointly owned properties. As the manager of 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 related to the financing of and revenue generation from these properties.
We may not be able to maintain our status as a REIT
We have elected to be treated as a REIT in connection with the filing of our tax return for 2010, retroactive to July 1, 2010. It is possible that we may not meet the conditions for continued qualification as a REIT. In addition, once an entity is qualified as a REIT, the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") generally requires that such entity distribute at least 90% of its ordinary taxable income to shareholders and pay tax on or distribute 100% of its capital gains. To avoid current entity level U.S. federal income taxes, we expect to distribute 100% of our capital gains and ordinary income to shareholders annually. For 2010 we made 90% of this distribution in common stock and 10% in cash. For 2011, we made this distribution in the form of quarterly $.10 per share cash payments and the special dividend of the common stock of RPI. There can be no assurances as to the allocation between cash and common stock of our future dividends.
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 shareholders in computing our taxable income and federal income tax. If any of our REIT subsidiaries fail to qualify as a REIT, such failure could result in our loss of REIT status. If we lose our REIT status, 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 holders of equity securities that would otherwise receive dividends 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.

Table of Contents
An ownership limit, certain anti-takeover defenses and applicable law may hinder any attempt to acquire us
Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws contain the following limitations.
The ownership limit. Generally, for us to qualify as a REIT under the Code for a taxable year, 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 such taxable year. Our charter provides that no one individual may own more than 9.9% of the outstanding shares of capital stock unless our board of directors provides a waiver from the ownership restrictions, which the Investment Agreements contemplate subject to the applicable Plan Sponsor making certain representations and covenants. The Code defines "individuals" for purposes of the requirement described above to include some types of entities. However, our certificate of incorporation also permits us to exempt a person from the ownership limit described therein upon the satisfaction of certain conditions which are described in our certificate of incorporation.
Selected provisions of our charter documents. Our charter authorizes the board of directors:
- •
- to cause us to issue additional authorized but unissued shares of common stock or preferred stock;
- •
- to classify or reclassify, in one or more series, any unissued preferred stock; and
- •
- to set the preferences, rights and other terms of any classified or reclassified stock that we issue.
Selected provisions of our bylaws. Our amended and restated bylaws contain the following limitations:
- •
- the inability of stockholders to act by written consent;
- •
- restrictions on the ability of stockholders to call a special meeting without 15% or more of the voting power of the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; and
- •
- rules regarding how stockholders may present proposals or nominate directors for election at stockholder meetings.
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 below), 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:
- •
- before that person became an interested stockholder, our board of directors approved the transaction in which the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder or approved the business combination;
- •
- upon completion of the transaction that resulted in the interested stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of our voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding (but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder) stock held by directors who are also officers of our company and by employee 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; and
- •
- following the transaction in which that person became an interested stockholder, the business combination is approved by our board of directors and authorized at a meeting of stockholders
14
Table of Contents
The statute defines "interested stockholder" as 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.
Bankruptcy Risks
Our actual financial results may vary significantly from the projections filed with the Bankruptcy Court
Statements required to be made in the disclosure statement filed with the Bankruptcy Court in connection with the Plan, contained projected financial information and estimates of value that demonstrated the feasibility of the Plan and our Debtors' ability to continue operations upon their emergence from proceedings under the Bankruptcy Code. The information in the disclosure statement was prepared for the limited purpose of furnishing recipients with adequate information to make an informed judgment regarding acceptance of the Plan and was not prepared for the purpose of providing the basis for an investment decision relating to any of our securities. The projections and estimates of value, are expressly excluded from this Annual Report and should not be relied upon in any way or manner and should not be regarded for the purpose of this report as representations or warranties by us or any other person, as to the accuracy of such information or that any such projections or valuations will be realized. Those projections and estimates of value have not been, and will not be, updated on an ongoing basis, and they were not audited or reviewed by independent accountants. They reflected numerous assumptions concerning our anticipated future performance and with respect to prevailing and anticipated market and economic conditions that were, and remain, beyond our control. Projections and estimates of value are inherently subject to substantial and numerous uncertainties and to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks, and the assumptions underlying the projections and/or valuation estimates may be wrong in any material respect. Actual results may vary and may continue to vary significantly from those contemplated by the projections and/or valuation estimates. As a result, you should not rely on those projections and/or valuation estimates.
We cannot be certain that the Chapter 11 Cases will not adversely affect our operations going forward. Our bankruptcy may have affected our relationship with key employees, tenants, consumers, suppliers and communities, and our future success depends on our ability to maintain these relationships
Although we emerged from bankruptcy upon consummation of the Plan, we cannot assure you that our having been subject to bankruptcy protection will not adversely affect our operations going forward, including our ability to negotiate favorable terms from and maintain relationships with tenants, consumers, suppliers and communities. The failure to obtain such favorable terms and maintain such relationships could adversely affect our financial performance and our ability to realize our strategy.
There is a risk of investor influence over our company that may be adverse to our best interests and those of our other shareholders
The Plan Sponsors (excluding Fairholme), Blackstone and Texas Teachers still own, in the aggregate, a majority of the shares of our common stock (excluding shares issuable upon the exercise of Warrants) as of December 31, 2011. The effect of the exercise of the Warrants, representing
15
Table of Contents
131,748,000 shares, or the election to receive future dividends in the form of common stock, would further increase their ownership.
Although the Plan Sponsors have entered into standstill agreements to limit their influence, the concentration of ownership of our outstanding equity in the Plan Sponsors may make some transactions more difficult or impossible without the support of the Plan Sponsors, or more likely with the support of the Plan Sponsors. The interests of any of the Plan Sponsors, any other substantial stockholder or any of their respective affiliates could conflict with or differ from our interests or the interests of the holders of our common stock. For example, the concentration of ownership held by the Plan Sponsors could delay, defer or prevent a change of control of our company or impede a merger, takeover or other business combination that may otherwise be favorable for us and the other stockholders. A Plan Sponsor, substantial stockholder or affiliate thereof may also pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business, and as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us. We cannot assure you that the standstill agreements can fully protect against these risks.
As long as the Plan Sponsors and any other substantial stockholder own, directly or indirectly, a substantial portion of our outstanding shares, subject to the terms of the standstill agreements and were they to act in a coordinated manner, they would be able to exert significant influence over us, including:
- •
- the composition of our board of directors, including the right of Brookfield Investor and Pershing Square to designate directors under the Investment Agreements, and, through it, any determination with respect to our business;
- •
- direction and policies, including the appointment and removal of officers;
- •
- the determination of incentive compensation, which may affect our ability to retain key employees;
- •
- any determinations with respect to mergers or other business combinations;
- •
- our acquisition or disposition of assets;
- •
- our financing decisions and our capital raising activities;
- •
- the payment of dividends;
- •
- conduct in regulatory and legal proceedings; and
- •
- amendments to our certificate of incorporation.
Some of our directors are involved in other businesses including, without limitation, real estate activities and public and/or private investments and, therefore, may have competing or conflicting interests with us and our board of directors has adopted resolutions renouncing any interest or expectation in any such business opportunities. In addition, our relationship agreement with Brookfield Asset Management Inc. contains significant exclusions from Brookfield's obligation to present opportunities to us
Certain of our directors have and may in the future have interests in other real estate business activities, and may have control or influence over these activities or may serve as investment advisors, directors or officers. These interests and activities, and any duties to third parties arising from such interests and activities, could divert the attention of such directors from our operations. Additionally, certain of our directors are engaged in investment and other activities in which they may learn of real estate and other related opportunities in their non-director capacities. Our board of directors has adopted resolutions applicable to our directors that expressly provide, as permitted by Section 122(17) of the DGCL, that our non-employee directors are not obligated to limit their interests or activities in their non-director capacities or to notify us of any opportunities that may arise in connection therewith, even if the opportunities are complementary to or in competition with our businesses. Accordingly, we
16
Table of Contents
have, and investors in our common stock should have, no expectation that we will be able to learn of or participate in such opportunities. Additionally, the relationship agreement with Brookfield Asset Management, Inc. contains significant exclusions from Brookfield Asset Management Inc.'s obligations to present opportunities to us.
Liquidity Risks
Our indebtedness could adversely affect our financial health and operating flexibility
As of December 31, 2011, we have approximately $20.04 billion aggregate principal amount of indebtedness outstanding at our pro rata share, net of noncontrolling interest, which includes approximately $2.78 billion of our share of unconsolidated debt. Our indebtedness may have important consequences to us and the value of our common stock, including:
- •
- limiting our ability to borrow significant additional amounts for working capital, capital expenditures, debt service requirements, execution of our business strategy or other purposes;
- •
- limiting our ability to use operating cash flow in other areas of our business or to pay dividends because we must dedicate a portion of these funds to service debt;
- •
- increasing our vulnerability to general adverse economic and industry conditions, including increases in interest rates, particularly given the portion of our indebtedness which bears interest at variable rates;
- •
- limiting our ability to capitalize on business opportunities and to react to competitive pressures and adverse changes in government regulation; and
- •
- giving secured lenders the ability to foreclose on our assets.
Our debt contains restrictions and covenants which may limit our ability to enter into or obtain funding for certain transactions or operate our business
The terms of certain of our debt will 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, or to satisfy similar tests as a precondition to incurring additional debt. We entered into a $750 million revolving credit facility in April 2011 containing such covenants and restrictions. In addition, certain of our indebtedness that was reinstated in connection with the Plan contains restrictions. The covenants and other restrictions under our debt agreements affect, among other things, our ability to:
- •
- incur indebtedness;
- •
- create liens on assets;
- •
- sell assets;
- •
- manage our cash flows;
- •
- transfer assets to other subsidiaries;
- •
- make capital expenditures;
- •
- engage in mergers and acquisitions; and
- •
- make distributions to equity holders, including holders of our common stock.
Further, our ability to incur debt under the indentures governing the Rouse notes which are expected to remain outstanding through November 2015 (with maturities from September 2012), is determined by the calculation of several covenant tests, including ratios of secured debt to gross assets
17
Table of Contents
and total debt to gross assets. We expect that Rouse and its subsidiaries may need to refinance project-level debt prior to 2015, and our ability to refinance such debt may be limited by these ratios and any potential non-compliance with the covenants may result in Rouse seeking other sources of capital, including investments from us, or may result in a default on the reinstated Rouse notes. Our current plan with respect to the 2012 maturities in to pay down the amount with available capital.
In addition, our refinanced debt contains certain terms which include restrictive operational and financial covenants, restrictions on the distribution of cash flows from properties serving as collateral for the debt 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 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.
We may not be able to refinance, extend or repay our portion of indebtedness of our Unconsolidated Properties
As of December 31, 2011, our share of indebtedness secured by our Unconsolidated Properties was approximately $2.78 billion. We cannot assure you that our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates will be able to support, extend, refinance or repay their debt on acceptable terms or otherwise. If we or our joint venture partners cannot service this debt, the joint venture may have to deed property back to the applicable lenders. There can be no assurance that we will be able to refinance or restructure such debt 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. The ability to refinance this debt is negatively affected by the current condition of the credit markets, which have significantly reduced the capacity levels of commercial lending. The ability to successfully refinance or extend this debt may also be negatively affected by our previous bankruptcy proceedings and the restructuring of the related debt, as well as the real or perceived decline in the value of our Unconsolidated Properties based on general and retail economic conditions.
We may not be able to raise capital through the sale of properties, including the strategic sale of non-core assets at prices we believe are appropriate
We desire to opportunistically sell non-core assets, such as stand-alone office buildings, community shopping centers and certain regional malls. Our ability to sell our properties to raise capital may be 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 could be affected by the availability of credit, which could increase the cost and difficulty for potential purchasers to acquire financing, as well as by the illiquid nature of real estate. For example, as part of our strategy to further delever our balance sheet in order to build liquidity and optimize our portfolio, we plan to reposition certain of our underperforming properties. If we cannot reposition these properties on terms that are acceptable to us, we may not be able to delever and realize our strategy of building liquidity and optimizing our portfolio. 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.
Risks Related to the Distribution of HHC
We have indemnified HHC for certain tax liabilities
Pursuant to the Investment Agreements, we have indemnified HHC from and against 93.75% of any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable expenses to which HHC and its subsidiaries become subject, in each case solely to the extent directly attributable to certain taxes related to sales in the Predecessor's Master Planned Communities segment prior to March 31, 2010, in an amount up to $303.8 million as reflected in our consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2011 and 2010. Under certain circumstances, the Company has also agreed to be responsible for interest or penalties attributable to such taxes in excess of $303.8 million.

FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION
We may make forward-looking statements in this Annual Report and in other reports which we file with the SEC. In addition, our senior management might make forward-looking statements orally to analysts, investors, the media and others.
Forward-looking statements include:
- •
- Descriptions of plans or objectives of our management for, debt repayment or restructuring, modification, extension; strategic alternatives, including capital raises and asset sales; and future operations
- •
- Projections of our revenues, income, earnings per share, Funds From Operations ("FFO"), NOI, capital expenditures, income tax and other contingent liabilities, dividends, leverage, capital structure or other financial items

- Descriptions of assumptions underlying or relating to any of the foregoing
In this Annual Report, for example, we make forward-looking statements discussing our expectations about:
- •
- Our ability to achieve cost savings, and renew and enter into leases on favorable terms
- •
- Our ability to reduce our debt or other liquidity goals within our expected time frame or at all

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," "believe," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "plan," "project," "target," "can," "could," "may," "should," "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.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements include but are not limited to:
- •
- economic conditions, especially in the retail sector, which may have an adverse affect on our revenues and available cash, including our ability to lease and collect rent, bankruptcy or store closures of tenants, department store productivity, co-tenancy provisions and ability to attract new tenants;
- •
- our inability to buy and sell real estate quickly;
- •
- the fact that we invest primarily in regional malls and other properties, which are subject to a number of significant risks which are beyond our control;
- •
- risks associated with the redevelopment and expansion of properties;
19

UNCONSOLIDATED RETAIL PROPERTIES—INTERNATIONAL
We also currently hold a non-controlling ownership interest in a public Brazilian real estate operating company, Aliansce Shopping centers, and a large regional mall (Shopping Leblon) in Rio de Janeiro. 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 (the "Aliansce IPO"). Our ownership interest in Aliansce was diluted from 49% to approximately 31% as a result of the stock sold in the Aliansce IPO.

Table of Contents
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.
Regional Mall Lease Expiration Schedule
The following table indicates various lease expiration information related to the consolidated regional malls, community centers and office buildings owned and excludes properties transferred to RPI, properties classified as discontinued operations and properties held for disposition. The table also excludes expirations and rental revenue from temporary tenants and tenants that pay percent in lieu rent. See "Note 3—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the consolidated financial statements for our accounting policies for revenue recognition from our tenant leases and "Note 10—Rentals Under Operating Leases" to the consolidated financial statements for the future minimum rentals of our operating leases for the consolidated properties.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Other than certain remaining claims related to or arising from our Chapter 11 cases described in this Annual Report (see Note 17 to the Consolidated Financial Statements), neither the Company nor any of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates is currently involved in any material pending legal proceedings nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding currently threatened against the Company or any of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates.
Urban Litigation
In October 2004, certain limited partners (the "Urban Plaintiffs") of Urban Shopping Centers, L.P. ("Urban") filed a lawsuit against Urban's general partner, Head Acquisition, L.P. ("Head"), as well as TRCLP, Simon Property Group, Inc., Westfield America, Inc., and various of their affiliates, including Head's general partners (collectively, the "Urban Defendants"), in Circuit Court in Cook County, Illinois. The Predecessor, GGPLP and other affiliates were later included as Urban Defendants. The lawsuit alleges, among other things, that the Urban Defendants breached the Urban partnership agreement, unjustly enriched themselves through misappropriation of partnership opportunities, failed to grow the partnership, breached their fiduciary duties, and tortiously interfered with several contractual relationships. The plaintiffs seek relief in the form of unspecified monetary damages, equitable relief and injunctive relief, the last of which would require the Urban Defendants, including the Predecessor and its affiliates, to engage in certain future transactions through the Urban Partnership. The case is currently in expert discovery; certain fact discovery matters are on appeal to the Illinois Supreme Court. John Schreiber, one of our directors, serves on the board of directors of, and is an investor in, an entity that is a principal investor in the Urban Plaintiffs, and is himself an investor in the Urban Plaintiffs and, therefore, has a financial interest in the outcome of the litigation that is adverse to us. While we do not believe that this litigation will have a material adverse effect on us, we are disclosing its existence due to Mr. Schreiber's interest in the case.
Tax Indemnification Liability
Pursuant to the Investment Agreements, the Successor has indemnified HHC from and against 93.75% of any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable expenses to which HHC and its subsidiaries become subject, in each case solely to the extent directly attributable to MPC Taxes (as defined in the Investment Agreements) in an amount up to $303.8 million. Under certain circumstances, we agreed to be responsible for interest or penalties attributable to such MPC Taxes in excess of the $303.8 million. As a result of this indemnity, The Howard Hughes Company, LLC and Howard Hughes Properties, Inc. filed petitions in the United States Tax Court on May 6, 2011, contesting this liability. We have accrued $303.8 million as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 related to the tax indemnification liability. In addition, we have accrued $21.6 million of interest related to the tax indemnification liability in accounts payable and accrued expenses on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2011 and $19.7 million as of December 31, 2010. The aggregate liability of $325.4 million represents management's best estimate of our liability as of December 31, 2011, which will be periodically evaluated in the aggregate. We do not expect to make any payments on the tax indemnification liability within the next 12 months.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
On April 16, 2009, the Predecessor's common stock was suspended from trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the "Exchange"). On April 17, 2009, the Predecessor's common stock began trading on the Pink Sheets under the symbol GGWPQ. The Predecessor's common stock was delisted from the Exchange on May 21, 2009. On February 24, 2010, the Predecessor's common stock was relisted on the Exchange. On November 5, 2010, GGP common stock and HHC common stock began trading on a "when issued basis" and such stock began regular trading on November 10, 2010 following the effectiveness of the Plan and the issuance of such stock. As of February 17, 2012, our common stock was held by 3,449 stockholders of record.
The following table summarizes the quarterly high and low bid quotations prices per share of our common stock as reported on the Pink Sheets between April 17, 2009 and February 24, 2010 and by the high and low sales prices on the Exchange for all other periods.

Table of Contents
- (b)
- The dividend was payable in a combination of cash and common stock with the cash component of the dividend paid not to exceed 10% in the aggregate. Based on the volume weighted average trading prices of the Company's Common Stock on January 19, 20 and 21, 2011 ($14.4725 per share), approximately 22.3 million shares of Common Stock were issued and approximately $35.8 million in cash (excluding cash for fractional shares) was paid to Common Stockholders on January 27, 2011. This dividend was a 2010 dividend and was intended to allow the Company to satisfy its 2010 REIT distribution requirements (Note 8). The Company intends to pay dividends on its common stock in the future to maintain its REIT status, with the amounts paid in common stock as opposed to cash yet to be determined.
Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities and Repurchase of Shares

Basis of Presentation
The Company emerged from Chapter 11 on November 9, 2010, which we refer to as the Effective Date. The structure of the Plan Sponsors' investments triggered the application of the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting was applied at the Effective Date and, therefore, the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the year ended December 31, 2011 and for the period from November 10, 2010 to December 31, 2010, and the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and the Consolidated Statement of Equity for the year ended December 31, 2011 and for the period from November 10, 2010 to December 31, 2010 reflect the revaluation of the Predecessor's assets and liabilities to fair value as of the Effective Date. Certain elements of our financial statements were significantly changed by these adjustments, such as depreciation which is calculated on revalued property and equipment and amortization of above and below market leases and other intangibles which is also calculated on revalued assets and liabilities. The results for the Successor and Predecessor are based on different bases of accounting. Due to the increased depreciation in operating expenses and the net decrease of revenues due to the amortization of above and below market leases and straight-line rent, certain line items of the Predecessor's and Successor's statements of operations are not directly comparable.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Real Estate Property Net Operating Income
We present NOI, as defined below, in this Annual Report as supplemental measures of our performance that are not required by, or presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that NOI is a useful supplemental measures of our operating performance. NOI is defined as operating revenues (rental income, tenant recoveries and other income) less property and related expenses (real estate taxes, property maintenance costs, marketing, other property expenses and provision for doubtful accounts). Other real estate companies may use different methodologies for calculating NOI, and accordingly, our NOI may not be comparable to other real estate companies.
Because NOI excludes general and administrative expenses, interest expense, impairment or other non-recoverable development costs, depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions, allocations to noncontrolling interests, reorganization items, strategic initiatives, provision for income taxes and discontinued operations, we believe that NOI provides performance measures that, when compared year over year, reflect the revenues and expenses directly associated with owning and operating regional shopping malls and the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. These measures thereby provide an operating perspective not immediately apparent from GAAP operating income (loss) or net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders. We use NOI to evaluate our operating performance on a property-by-property basis because NOI allows us to evaluate the impact that factors such as lease structure, lease rates and tenant base, which vary by property, have on our operating results, gross margins and investment returns.
37
Table of Contents
In addition, management believes that NOI provides useful information to the investment community about our operating performance. However, due to the exclusions noted above, NOI should only be used as supplemental measures of our financial performance and not as an alternative to GAAP operating income (loss) or net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders.

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) attributable to common stockholders computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding impairment write-downs on depreciable real estate, gains or losses from cumulative effects of accounting changes, extraordinary items and sales of properties, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for the preceding items in our unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We believe our definition of FFO is consistent with the definition of FFO as established by NAREIT.
We consider FFO a useful supplemental measure 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. FFO is not a measurement of our financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to revenues, operating income (loss), net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP or as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities as a measure of our liquidity.

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 whose 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.
Overview—Introduction
Our primary business is to own, manage, lease and develop regional malls. The substantial majority of our properties are located in the United States; however, we also own interests in regional malls and property management activities (through unconsolidated joint ventures) in Brazil. As of December 31, 2011, we are the owner, either entirely or with joint venture partners, of 136 regional malls in 41 states (excluding properties held for sale and properties included in the RPI Spin-Off). We provide 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 the same whether the properties are consolidated or unconsolidated.
On December 20, 2011, the Board of Directors approved RPI Spin-Off, which included a 30-mall wholly owned portfolio, in the form of a special dividend. On January 12, 2012, we distributed our shares in RPI to the GGP shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 30, 2011.
39
Table of Contents
GGP shareholders were entitled to receive approximately 0.0375 shares of RPI common stock held as of December 30, 2011. Subsequent to the spin-off we retained an approximately 1% interest in RPI. These properties are presented as part of continuing operations in the Consolidated Financial Statements and will be reclassified to discontinued operations when the spin-off is completed.
Overview
In 2011, we embarked on a strategy to execute transactions to achieve our long-term strategy of enhancing the quality of our portfolio and maximizing total returns for our shareholders. We improved the overall quality of our portfolio by selling non-core assets and executing the completion of the RPI Spin-Off on January 12, 2012. In addition, in certain circumstances, we sold or transferred properties to the mortgage holder of non-recourse debt through deed in lieu transactions which we believe were in the best interests of our shareholders. During 2011, we successfully completed transactions promoting our long-term strategy as summarized below:
- •
- decreased our borrowing costs and lengthened our overall remaining term-to-maturity by refinancing $2.6 billion of mortgage notes;
- •
- approved the spin-off to our shareholders of 30 Class B regional malls in the form of a special taxable dividend of shares of RPI. The transaction was consummated on January 12, 2012 and decreased our outstanding mortgage notes by $1.1 billion;
- •
- sold, or transferred to the mortgage holder, whole or partial interests in approximately 11.5 million square feet of gross leasable area comprised of regional malls for $879.7 million including property level debt of $752.1 million;
- •
- acquired whole or partial interests in approximately 2.45 million square feet of gross leasable area comprised of regional malls, anchor pads and big box stores, for approximately $168.4 million, including the assumption of $34.7 million of property-level debt;
- •
- formed a joint venture partnership with Kimco Realty to redevelop Owings Mills Mall in Owings Mills, Maryland, a one-million square foot regional mall;
- •
- opened 28 new anchor/big boxes totaling approximately 920,000 square feet and three department stores totaling 402,000 square feet; and
- •
- formed a joint venture partnership with the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP) to purchase Plaza Frontenac in Frontenac (St. Louis), Missouri. We contributed St. Louis Galleria to the joint venture and CPP contributed $83.0 million in cash.
As a result of our efforts in 2011, our portfolio now has sales in excess of $500 per square foot. We will continue to evaluate other opportunities to improve our portfolio. Our total portfolio pro rata Core NOI increased 2.4% from $2.18 billion in 2010 to $2.23 billion in 2011 as a result of increased rents and recoveries as well as an increase in overage rents while expenses remained relatively flat. Our Core FFO increased 7.8% from $869.2 million in 2010 to $937.0 million in 2011 (see below in "Core NOI and Core FFO Reconciliation" for definition of Core NOI and Core FFO). Core FFO increases are a result of the increases in Core NOI as well as a decrease in pro rata interest expense as a result of amortization of debt and improved terms of refinancing transactions completed in 2011.
Our key operational objectives include the following:
- •
- increase the permanent occupancy of the regional mall portfolio, including converting temporary leases to permanent leases, which have longer contractual terms and significantly higher minimum rents and tenant recovery rates;
- •
- lease vacant space;
40
Table of Contents
- •
- opportunistically acquire whole or partial interests in high-quality regional malls and anchor pads that improve the overall quality of our portfolio;
- •
- commence several redevelopment projects within our portfolio;
- •
- form joint ventures with institutional investors to acquire partial interests in regional malls, either currently owned by us or through a new acquisition;
- •
- dispose of properties in our portfolio that do not fit within our long-term strategy, including certain of our office properties, retail strip centers and certain regional malls; and
- •
- continue to refinance our maturing debt, and certain debt prepayable without penalty, with the goal of lowering our overall borrowing costs and managing future maturities.
On February 23, 2012, we signed a definitive agreement for the acquisition of 11 Sears anchor pads within our portfolio for $270 million. This portfolio represents a significant opportunity to recapture valuable real estate within our portfolio and enhances several expansion and redevelopment opportunities, including re-tenanting the anchor space and adding new in-line GLA. The acquisition is expected to close in the second quarter of 2012 subject to customary closing conditions.
We seek to increase long-term NOI growth through proactive management and leasing of our regional malls. Our leasing strategy is to identify and provide the right stores and the appropriate merchandise for each of our regional malls. We believe that the most significant operating factor affecting incremental cash flow and NOI is increased rents earned from tenants at our properties. These rental revenue increases are primarily achieved by:
- •
- renewing expiring leases and re-leasing existing space at rates higher than expiring or existing rates;
- •
- increasing occupancy at the properties so that more space is generating rent; and
- •
- increased tenant sales in which we participate through overage rent.

Table of Contents
The base minimum rents have increased due to a net increase in contractual rental rates and an increase in permanent occupancy within our regional malls. The changes in straight-line rent and above-and below-market leases, net reflect the impact of the application of acquisition accounting in the fourth quarter of 2010. Lease termination income decreased due to fewer lease terminations.
Tenant recoveries decreased $4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily due to a decrease of $3.3 million in marketing and promotional revenue and a $0.7 million decrease in HVAC revenue as well as the impact of gross deals signed in prior years.
Overage rents increased $13.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily due to increased tenant sales in 2011.
Other revenue, including noncontrolling interests, increased $1.7 million primarily due to advertising and promotion revenue.
Real estate taxes increased $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily due to the amortization of an intangible asset related to real estate taxes at one property, which was partially offset by a favorable real estate tax settlement that resulted in lower expense in 2010.
Marketing increased $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily due to increased marketing efforts related to internal and external advertising, which was partially offset by a decrease in national advertising.
Other property operating costs increased $3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily due to a $10.5 million increase in utilities and a $3.3 million increase in outside professional services, which are partially offset by a $11.5 million decrease in payroll, benefits and incentive compensation.
The provision for doubtful accounts decreased $9.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily due to improved collections of outstanding accounts receivable during 2011. In addition, the provision was higher in 2010 as the result of tenant bankruptcies and weaker economic conditions.

Management fees and other corporate revenues decreased $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 due to a $1.4 million decrease in management fees resulting from the sale of our third-party management business in July 2010. In addition, development fees and specialty lease fees

decreased approximately $1.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 due to lower fees earned as a result of delays in projects at three properties owned by our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates.
Property management and other costs increased $39.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 due to a $20.0 million increase in professional services primarily related to the RPI Spin-Off, a $12.4 million increase in severance as part of the realignment of the Company, a $9.2 million increase in incentive compensation and a $2.9 million increase in occupancy costs, which were partially offset by a $5.8 million decrease in payroll and benefits.
General and administrative expenses decreased by $11.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily due to the reversal of previously accrued bankruptcy costs and gains on bankruptcy settlements of $23.1 million, which were offset by a $13.0 million increase in stock based compensation due to an increase in executive stock grants issued in 2011.
Provision for impairment included charges of $64.3 million related to two operating properties and one non-income producing asset for the year ended December 31, 2011. Based on the results of the Predecessor's evaluations for impairment, we recognized impairment charges related to operating properties and properties under development of $4.5 million for the period from January 1, 2010 through November 9, 2010.
Depreciation and amortization increased $281.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily due to the impact of the application of the acquisition accounting in the fourth quarter of 2010.
The following are explanations for significant changes in line items reported below operating income:
Interest expense decreased $439.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 primarily as we refinanced 20 properties, resulting in a lower debt balance and lower weighted average interest expense in 2011.
The Warrant liability adjustment was $55.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 due to the non-cash expense recognized as a result of the change in the fair value of the Warrant liability (Note 9). The decrease in the fair value was primarily due to the decrease our stock price and the change in implied volatility.
The provision for income taxes was $9.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the benefit for income taxes was $69.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010. The change was primarily due to changes in liabilities pursuant to uncertain tax positions.
The decrease in equity in (loss) income of Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates for the year ended December 31, 2011 was primarily due to a $47.3 million decrease in amortization of intangible assets and liabilities, including above and below market lease amortization. This is offset by $21.1 million related to the impairment of our investment in Turkey in 2010.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | |
The base minimum rents decreased $11.8 million primarily due to a decrease in rents per square foot and occupancy and $11.1 million due to the reduction in specialty leasing. The changes in

Table of Contents
straight-line rent and above- and below-market tenant leases reflect the impact of the application of the acquisition method of accounting in the fourth quarter of 2010.
Tenant recoveries decreased $24.8 million primarily as the result of the conversion of tenants to gross leases and lower recoveries related to common area maintenance, real estate taxes and electric utility expense as a result of tenant settlements for prior years that were delayed due to the Predecessor's bankruptcy and $5.0 million resulting from lower marketing and promotional revenue. Overage rents increased $6.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to increased tenant sales in 2010.
Property maintenance costs increased $8.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to increased spending on mall upkeep, including labor costs and equipment and supplies.
Marketing increased $4.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to increased spending on national projects such as our Shop 'til You Rock, E-marketing and Shopper Rewards programs.
Other property operating costs decreased by $6.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to reduced utility costs. Partially offsetting this decrease is increased electric expense in 2010 due to comparatively warmer summer weather conditions, and increases in landscaping and cleaning costs.
The provision for doubtful accounts decreased $9.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to higher allowances in 2009 related to tenant bankruptcies and weak economic conditions.

Management fees and other corporate revenues decreased $12.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to a $2.3 million decrease in lease fees, a $3.4 million decrease in development fees and a $3.0 million decrease in management fees. Of the total decrease, $5.7 million resulted from the sale of our third-party management business in July 2010.
Property management and other costs decreased $3.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to a $17.5 million decrease in compensation expense primarily resulting from a reduction in force in 2009 and the sale of our third party management business in July 2010. The decrease was partially offset by an $11.7 million increase in professional services primarily due to an increase in expenses for leasing, brokerage fees and information technology.

Table of Contents
General and administrative expenses decreased $47.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 due to a $2.9 million decrease in legal fees in 2010 and a $62.5 million decrease in professional fees related to the restructuring efforts incurred in 2009 prior to filing for Chapter 11 protection. Similar fees incurred after filing for Chapter 11 protection are recorded as reorganization items for the period January 1, 2010 through November 9, 2010. The decrease was partially offset by $11.0 million increase in executive compensation (primarily related to terminated employees) and a $1.1 million increase in fees paid to the board of directors. In addition, we have incurred $5.6 million of professional and other costs related to our emergence from bankruptcy and implementation of the Plan since the Effective Date which could not be accrued as of the Effective Date or classified as reorganization items.
Based on the results of the Predecessor's evaluations for impairment, we recognized impairment charges of $4.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 and $393.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 related to properties not classified as held for disposition. Impairments on properties held for disposition are classified within discontinued operations.
The following are explanations for significant changes in line items reported below operating income:
Interest expense increased $115.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 primarily due to default interest that was incurred prior to the Effective Date, partially offset by reductions in 2010 interest expense on existing consolidated debt.
The Warrant liability adjustment was $205.3 million in the period November 10, 2010 through December 31, 2010 due to the non-cash expense recognized in the period from November 10, 2010 through December 31, 2010 due to the mark-to-market of the Warrant liability as of December 31, 2010, primarily due to the increase in price of GGP's common stock since the Effective Date.
Income taxes resulted in a benefit from of $69.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 and a provision for of $6.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. The change was primarily due to changes in liabilities pursuant to uncertain tax positions.
The decrease in equity in (loss) income of Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates for the year ended December 31, 2010 was primarily due to the following:
- •
- ($21.1) million related to the impairments of our investment in Turkey;
- •
- ($2.4) million of lower interest income on GGP/Homart II joint venture as the member loans were distributed to the members in December 2009;
- •
- $9.7 million gain the Aliansce IPO; and
- •
- $1.6 million reflects the disposition of our interest in Highland Mall.
Reorganization items under the bankruptcy filings 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, gains or losses resulting from activities of the reorganization process, including gains related to recording the mortgage debt at fair value upon emergence from bankruptcy and interest earned on cash accumulated by the Debtors. Such expenses increased in 2010 as the Plan was developed and finalized (Note 3).

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our capital plan is to refinance our existing debt, lower our borrowing costs, manage our future maturities and provide the necessary capital to fund growth. We believe that we currently have sufficient liquidity to satisfy all of our commitments in the form of $572.9 million of unrestricted cash and $750.0 million of available credit under our credit facility, as well as anticipated cash provided by operations. Our primary sources of cash to pay operating expenses, service debt, reinvest in properties, develop and redevelop properties and pay dividends include operating cash flows and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.
We have executed a refinancing strategy of extending the average debt maturity profile while reducing interest rates. We will continue to modify our capital structure to provide the necessary financial flexibility to the Company.
During 2011, we executed the following refinancing and capital transactions (at our prorata share):
- •
- refinanced $2.6 billion of mortgage notes and decreased our borrowing costs and lengthened our overall remaining term-to-maturity;
- •
- sold, or transferred to the mortgage holder, whole or partial interests in approximately 11.5 million square feet of gross leasable area comprised of regional malls for $879.7 million including property level debt of $752.1 million; and
- •
- improved the overall quality of our portfolio of assets through the approval of the RPI Spin-Off, making them more attractive to finance.
As of December 31, 2011 we have $9.4 billion of debt pre-payable at par. We may pursue opportunities to refinance this debt at better terms. Our long term goal is to improve our overall debt to EBIDTA and leverage ratios by improving operations, amortization of debt and refinancing debt at improved terms.
Our key financing and capital raising objectives include the following:
- •
- continue to refinance our maturing debt, and certain debt prepayable without penalty, with the goal of lowering our overall borrowing costs and managing future maturities'
- •
- raise capital by forming joint ventures with institutional investors to acquire partial interests in regional malls, either currently owned by us or through a new acquisition; and
- •
- dispose of properties in our portfolio that do not fit within our long-term strategy, including certain of our office properties, retail strips and regional malls.
We may also raise capital through public or private issuances of debt securities, preferred stock, common stock, common units of the Operating Partnership or other capital raising activities.
As of December 31, 2011, our proportionate share of total debt aggregated $20.04 billion consisting of our consolidated debt, net of noncontrolling interest, of $17.24 billion combined with our share of the debt of our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates of approximately $2.78 billion.
The following table illustrates the scheduled loan maturities of our mortgages, notes and loans payable for our consolidated debt (net of noncontrolling interest) and unconsolidated debt at our proportionate share as of December 31, 2011. The table excludes debt included in liabilities on assets held for disposition. Also, $206.2 million of callable subordinated notes are included in the $1.40 billion of consolidated debt that is due in 2012. Although we do not expect the notes to be redeemed prior to maturity in 2041, the trust that owns the notes may exercise its right to redeem the notes prior to 2041.

Although, our primary uses of cash include payment of operating expenses, working capital, debt repayment, including principal and interest, reinvestment in properties, redevelopment of properties, tenant allowances, dividends and restructuring costs. Our primary sources of cash include operating cash flow, including our share of cash flow produced by our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates, and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.
We generally believe that we will be able to extend the maturity date or refinance the consolidated debt that is scheduled to mature in 2012. We also believe that the joint ventures will be able to refinance the debt of our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates that mature in 2012; however, there can be no assurance that we will be able to refinance or restructure such debt 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.
We repaid $338.8 million of corporate recourse debt during the year ended December 31, 2011. Following the repayment of these obligations, our only outstanding corporate debt is $206.2 million of Junior Subordinated Notes which are due in 2041 and $1.65 billion of bonds with maturity dates from 2012 through November 2015.

Redevelopment and Acquisitions
We are currently redeveloping several consolidated and unconsolidated properties, with our joint venture partners, including Glendale Galleria and North Point. These projects are expected to be completed at the end of 2012 and we expect to incur costs of approximately $68 million at our pro rata share. We continue to evaluate a number of other redevelopment prospects and further enhance the quality of our assets in future periods. As part of our overall strategy we may:
- •
- opportunistically acquire whole or partial interests in high-quality regional malls and anchor pads that improve the overall quality of our portfolio;
49
Table of Contents
- •
- commence several redevelopment projects within our portfolio identified as providing compelling risk-adjusted returns on investment;
We may also purchase joint venture interests from our partners.
On February 23, 2012, we signed a definitive agreement for the acquisition of 11 Sears anchor pads within our portfolio for $270 million. This portfolio represents a significant opportunity to recapture valuable real estate within our portfolio and enhances several expansion and redevelopment opportunities, including re-tenanting the anchor space and adding new in-line GLA. The acquisition is expected to close in the second quarter of 2012 subject to customary closing conditions.
Dividend
On November 7, 2011, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a quarterly common share dividend of $0.10 per share to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 30, 2011, payable on January 13, 2012. In addition to the November 7, 2011 cash dividend declared, the Board of Directors approved the distribution of RPI on December 20, 2011 in the form of a special dividend for which GGP shareholders were entitled to receive approximately 0.0375 shares of RPI common stock held as of December 30, 2011. RPI's net equity was recorded as of December 31, 2011 as a dividend payable as substantive conditions for the spin-off were met as of December 31, 2011 and it was probable that the spin-off would occur. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2011, we have recorded a distribution payable of $526.3 million and a related decrease in retained earnings (accumulated deficit), of which $426.7 million relates to the special dividend, on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. On January 12, 2012, we distributed our shares in RPI to the shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 30, 2011. This special dividend satisfied part of our 2011 and the 2012 REIT distribution requirements.
Share Repurchase
On May 4, 2011, our Board of Directors approved and we executed privately negotiated transactions with two financial institutions in which we agreed to purchase 30,585,957 shares of our common stock for $15.95 per share, which represents a 1% discount to the last reported price for our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the previous trading day. On May 9, 2011, we paid a total purchase price of $487.8 million for the common stock.
On August 8, 2011, our Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $250 million of its common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2011, we have purchased 5,247,580 shares at a weighted average price of $12.53 per share for a total of $65.7 million.
There were no share repurchases during 2009 and 2010.

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.

REIT Requirements
In order to remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we must distribute or pay tax on 100% of our capital gains and distribute at least 90% of our ordinary taxable income to stockholders. See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for disclosures regarding our ability to remain qualified as a REIT.
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 periods. For example, estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to fair values of assets and liabilities for purposes of applying the acquisition method of accounting, the 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 and impairment of long-lived assets. Actual results could differ from these and other 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:
Acquisition Adjustments
The acquisition method of accounting has been applied to the assets and liabilities of the Successor to reflect the Plan after giving effect to the HHC distribution. The acquisition method of accounting adjustments recorded on the Effective Date reflects the allocation of the estimated purchase price as presented in Note 4. Such adjustments reflect the amounts required to adjust the carrying values of our assets and liabilities, after giving effect to the transactions pursuant to the Plan after giving effect to the HHC distribution, to the fair values of such remaining assets and liabilities and redeemable non-controlling interests, with the offset to common equity, as provided by the acquisition method of accounting.
Impairment—Operating properties
We review our consolidated real estate assets, including operating properties 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, debt maturities and management's intent with respect to the assets.
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 the Company's plans with respect to the project, significant changes in projected completion dates, tenant demand, 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 flows. 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 carrying amount may exceed the estimated fair value of certain assets, 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 determined to be 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 group. The adjusted carrying amount, which represents the new cost basis of the asset, is depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset.
Impairment—Investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates
According to the guidance related to the equity method of accounting for investments, a series of operating losses of an investee or other factors may indicate that an other-than-temporary decrease in value of our investment in the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates has occurred. The investment in each of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates is evaluated periodically and as deemed necessary for valuation declines below the carrying amount. Accordingly, in addition to the property-specific impairment analysis that we perform for such joint ventures (as part of our operating property
54
Table of Contents
impairment process described above), we also considered whether there were other-than-temporary impairments with respect to the carrying values of our unconsolidated real estate affiliates.
Recoverable amounts of receivables
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). 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.
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-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. 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 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.
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 would increases in expenses due to inflation be a risk.
Core NOI and Core FFO Reconciliation
Core NOI is defined as NOI (as defined in Item 6), excluding straight-line rent, amortization of our above and below market tenant leases and amortization of above and below market ground rent expense. Core FFO is defined as FFO (as defined in Item 6) but excluding the Core NOI adjustments,

Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements made in this section or elsewhere in this report may be deemed "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although we believe the expectations reflected in any forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, we can give no assurance that our expectations will be attained, and it is possible that our actual results may differ materially from those indicated by these forward-looking statements due to a variety of risks, uncertainties and other factors. Such factors include, but are not limited to: the impact of a prolonged recession, our ability to meet debt service requirements, the availability and terms of financing, changes in our credit rating, changes in market rates of interest and foreign exchange rates for foreign currencies, the ability to hedge interest rate risk, risks associated with the acquisition, development and expansion of properties, general risks related to retail real estate, the liquidity of real estate investments, environmental liabilities, changes in market rental rates, trends in the retail industry, relationships with anchor tenants, the inability to collect rent due to the bankruptcy or insolvency of tenants or otherwise, risks relating to joint venture properties, competitive market forces, risks related to international activities, insurance costs and coverage, terrorist activities, and maintenance of our status as a real estate investment trust. We discuss these and other risks and

uncertainties under the heading "Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. We may update that discussion in subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, but otherwise we undertake no duty or obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments, or otherwise.
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 acquisitions. As of December 31, 2011, we had consolidated debt of $17.34 billion, including $2.55 billion of variable-rate debt. A 25 basis point movement in the interest rate on the $2.55 billion of variable-rate debt would result in a $6.4 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. Our share (based on our respective equity ownership interests in the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates) of such variable-rate debt was $112.8 million at December 31, 2011. 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 a nominal 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 3 and 7. At December 31, 2011, the fair value of our consolidated debt has been estimated for this purpose to be $161.4 million lower than the carrying amount of $17.34 billion.
ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
Reference is made to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Consolidated Financial Statement Schedule beginning on page F-1 for the required information.
ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Chief Financial Officer ("CFO"), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the "Exchange Act")). Based on that evaluation, the CEO and the CFO have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.
Internal Controls over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.

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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As of December 31, 2011, 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 Controls—Integrated Framework." Based on this assessment, management believes that, as of December 31, 2011, the Company maintained effective internal controls over financial reporting. Deloitte & Touche LLP, the independent registered public 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 included 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. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2011 based on criteria established inInternal Control—Integrated 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, 2011, based on the criteria established inInternal Control—Integrated 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, 2011 of the Company and our report dated February 29, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements based on our audit and the reports of other auditors and included an explanatory paragraph regarding the Company's consolidated financial statements including assets, liabilities, and a capital structure with carrying values not comparable with prior periods.

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. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), equity, and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2011 and for the period from November 10, 2010 through December 31, 2010 (Successor Company operations), and for the period from January 1, 2010 through November 9, 2010 and for the year ended December 31, 2009 (Predecessor Company operations). These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the 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 $800,784,000 and $846,369,000 in GGP/Homart II L.L.C.'s net assets as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and of $(4,740,000), $(1,109,000), and $(307,000) in GGP/Homart II L.L.C.'s net income (loss) for each of the three years in the respective period ended December 31, 2011 are included in the accompanying financial statements. The Company's equity of $229,519,000 and $190,375,000 in GGP-TRS L.L.C.'s net assets as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, and of $(4,620,000), $(16,403,000) and $(8,624,000) in GGP-TRS L.L.C.'s net income (loss) for each of the three years in the respective period ended December 31, 2011 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 on the reports of the other auditors and the procedures that we considered necessary in the circumstances with respect to the inclusion of the Company's equity investments and equity method income in the accompanying consolidated financial statements taking into consideration (1) the basis adjustments of the equity method investments as a result of the revaluation of the investments to fair value discussed in Note 4 and (2) the allocation of the equity method investment income from the operations of these investees between the two periods within the calendar year 2010 for the Predecessor Company and Successor Company.
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, the Successor Company consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of General Growth Properties, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2011 and the period from November 10, 2010 through December 31, 2010 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Further, in our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of the other auditors, the Predecessor Company consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the results of their operations and their cash flows for the period from January 1, 2010 through November 9, 2010 and the year ended December 31, 2009, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

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, 2011, based on the criteria established inInternal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 29, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

NOTE 1 ORGANIZATION
General
General Growth Properties, Inc. ("GGP", the "Successor" or the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, formerly known as New GGP, Inc., was organized in July 2010 and is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust, referred to as a "REIT". GGP is the successor registrant, by merger, on November 9, 2010 (the "Effective Date") to GGP, Inc. (the "Predecessor"). The Predecessor had 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") and emerged from bankruptcy, pursuant to a plan of reorganization (the "Plan") on the Effective Date as described below. In these notes, the terms "we," "us" and "our" refer to GGP and its subsidiaries or, in certain contexts, the Predecessor and its subsidiaries.
GGP, through its subsidiaries and affiliates, operates, manages, develops and acquires retail and other rental properties, primarily regional malls, which are predominantly located throughout the United States. GGP also holds assets in Brazil through investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates (as defined below). Prior to the Effective Date, the Predecessor had also developed and sold 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.
Substantially all of our business is conducted through GGP Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership" or "GGPLP"). As of December 31, 2011, GGP holds approximately a 99% common equity ownership (without giving effect to the potential conversion of the Preferred Units as defined below) of the Operating Partnership, while the remaining 1% is held by limited partners that indirectly include family members of the original stockholders of the Predecessor and certain previous contributors of properties to the Operating Partnership.
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 (Note 11).
In addition to holding ownership interests in various joint ventures, the Operating Partnership generally conducts its operations through the following subsidiaries:
- •
- The Rouse Company, LLC ("TRCLLC"), which has ownership interests in certain Consolidated Properties and Unconsolidated Properties (each as defined below) and is the borrower of certain unsecured bonds (Note 7).
- •
- General Growth Management, Inc. ("GGMI"), a taxable REIT subsidiary (a "TRS"), which manages, leases, and performs various services for some of our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates (defined below) and, through July 2010, had performed such services for 19 properties owned by unaffiliated third parties, all located in the United States. GGMI also performs marketing and strategic partnership services at all of our Consolidated Properties.
In this Annual 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 in the United States of America ("GAAP") as the "Consolidated Properties." We also hold some properties 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".
NOTE 2 CHAPTER 11 AND THE PLAN
In April 2009, the Predecessor and certain of its domestic subsidiaries (the "Debtors") filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code ("Chapter 11") in the bankruptcy court of the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court").
On October 21, 2010, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Debtors' plan of reorganization (the "Plan"). Pursuant to the Plan, on the Effective Date, the Predecessor merged with a wholly-owned subsidiary of New GGP, Inc. and New GGP, Inc. was re-named General Growth Properties, Inc. Also pursuant to the Plan, prepetition creditor claims were satisfied in full and equity holders received newly issued common stock in New GGP, Inc. and in Howard Hughes Corporation ("HHC"), a newly formed company. After that distribution, HHC became a publicly-held company, majority-owned by the Predecessor's previous stockholders. GGP does not own any interest in HHC as of the Effective Date.
The Plan was based on the agreements (collectively, as amended and restated, the "Investment Agreements") with REP Investments LLC, an affiliate of Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (the "Brookfield Investor"), an affiliate of Fairholme Funds, Inc. ("Fairholme") and an affiliate of Pershing Square Capital Management, L.P. ("Pershing Square" and together with the Brookfield Investor and Fairholme, the "Plan Sponsors"), pursuant to which the Predecessor would be divided into two companies, New GGP, Inc. and HHC, and the Plan Sponsors would invest in the Company's standalone emergence plan. In addition, the Predecessor entered into an investment agreement with Teachers Retirement System of Texas ("Texas Teachers") to purchase shares of GGP common stock at $10.25 per share. The Plan Sponsors also entered into an agreement with affiliates of the Blackstone Group ("Blackstone") whereby Blackstone subscribed for equity in New GGP, Inc. and agreed to purchase shares of GGP common stock at $10.00 per share and also invest in HHC.
Pursuant to the Investment Agreements, the Plan Sponsors and Blackstone purchased on the Effective Date $6.3 billion of New GGP, Inc. common stock at $10.00 per share and $250.0 million of HHC common stock at $47.61904 per share. Also, pursuant to the Investment Agreement with Pershing Square, 35 million shares (representing $350 million of Pershing Square's equity capital commitment) were designated as "put shares". The payment for these 35 million shares was fulfilled on the Effective Date by the payment of cash at closing in exchange for unsecured notes to Pershing Square which were scheduled to be payable six months from the Effective Date (the "Pershing Square Bridge Notes). The Pershing Square Bridge Notes were pre-payable at any time without premium or penalty. In addition, we had the right (the "put right") to sell up to 35 million shares of common stock, subject to reduction as provided in the Investment Agreement, to Pershing Square at $10.00 per share (adjusted for dividends) within six months following the Effective Date to fund the repayment of the Pershing Square Bridge Notes to the extent that they had not already been repaid. In connection with our reserving shares for repurchase after the Effective Date, we paid to Fairholme and/or Pershing Square, as applicable, in cash on the Effective Date, an amount equal to approximately $38.75 million. No fee was required to be paid to Texas Teachers. In addition, pursuant to agreement, the Texas Teachers purchased on the Effective Date $500 million of New GGP, Inc. common stock at $10.25 per share.

NOTE 2 CHAPTER 11 AND THE PLAN (Continued)
Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreements, the Plan Sponsors and Blackstone were issued warrants (the "Warrants"), which included eight million warrants to purchase common stock of HHC at an exercise price of $50.00 per share and 120 million warrants to purchase common stock of GGP (Note 9).
Pursuant to the Plan, each holder of a share of Predecessor common stock received on the Effective Date a distribution of 0.098344 of a share of common stock of HHC. Following the distribution of the shares of HHC common stock, each existing share of common stock converted into and represented the right to receive one share of GGP common stock. No fractional shares of HHC or GGP, Inc. were issued (i.e., the number of shares issued to each record holder was "rounded down"). Following these transactions, the Predecessor common stock ceased to exist.
After the transactions on the Effective Date, the Plan Sponsors, Blackstone (as it exercised its subscription rights described above) and Texas Teachers owned a majority of the outstanding common stock of GGP. The Predecessor common stockholders held approximately 317 million shares of GGP common stock at the Effective Date; whereas, the Plan Sponsors, Blackstone and Texas Teachers held approximately 644 million shares of GGP common stock on such date.
The Investment Agreements with Fairholme and Pershing Square permitted us to repurchase (within 45 days of the Effective Date) up to 155 million shares in the aggregate issued to those investors at a price of $10.00 per share. We had a similar right for up to 24.4 million shares issued to Texas Teachers at a price of $10.25 per share (the "Clawback"). In November 2010, we sold an aggregate of approximately 154.9 million common shares to the public at $14.75 per share and repurchased an equal number of shares from Fairholme and Pershing as permitted under the Clawback and repaid the Pershing Square Bridge Notes in full, including accrued interest. We also used a portion of the offering proceeds after such repurchase to repurchase approximately 24.4 million shares from Texas Teachers, also as permitted under the Clawback.
NOTE 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
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.
We operate in a single reportable segment referred to as our retail and other segment, which includes the operation, development and management of retail and other rental properties, primarily regional malls. Our portfolio of regional malls represents a collection of retail properties that are targeted to a range of market sizes and consumer tastes. Each of our operating properties is considered a separate operating segment, as each property earns revenues and incurs expenses, individual operating results are reviewed and discrete financial information is available. We do not distinguish or group our consolidated operations based on geography, size or type. Further, all material operations are within the United States and no customer or tenant comprises more than 10% of consolidated
F-14

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
revenues. As a result, the Company's operating properties are aggregated into a single reportable segment.
Through the Effective Date in 2010, we had two reportable segments (Retail and Other and Master Planned Communities) which offered different products and services. Our segments were managed separately because each required different operating strategies or management expertise. On the Effective Date, the assets included in the Master Planned Communities segment were distributed to HHC pursuant to the Plan (Note 2) and are therefore no longer reported as a reportable segment.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts in the consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation as a result of discontinued operations. Amounts included on the statements of operations for properties sold or to be disposed of have been reclassified to discontinued operations for all periods presented. However, two properties previously classified as held for sale, Mall St. Vincent and Southland Center, were reclassified as held for use in the first quarter of 2011 and have been included in continuing operations for all periods presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements (Note 5). Lastly, certain prior period statement of operations disclosures in the accompanying footnotes have been restated to exclude amounts which have been reclassified to discontinued operations.
Properties
Real estate assets are stated at cost less any provisions for impairments. As discussed in Note 4, the real estate assets were recorded at fair value pursuant to the application of acquisition accounting on the Effective Date. 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 third-party costs directly related to the construction assets, 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 3 below).
Tenant improvements, either paid directly or in the form of construction allowances paid to tenants, are capitalized and depreciated over the shorter of the useful life or the applicable lease term. Expenditures for significant betterments and improvements are capitalized. Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
We periodically review the estimated useful lives of our properties. Depreciation or amortization expense is computed using the straight-line method based upon the following estimated useful lives:
| | |
| | Years |
---|
Buildings and improvements | | 45 |
Equipment and fixtures | | 5 - 10 |
Tenant improvements | | Shorter of useful life or applicable lease term |
Accumulated depreciation was reset to zero on the Effective Date as described in Note 4 in conjunction with the application of the acquisition method of accounting due to the Plan and the Investment Agreements.
Impairment
General
Carrying values of our properties were reset to fair value on the Effective Date as provided by the acquisition method of accounting. Impairment charges could be taken in the future if economic conditions change or if the plans regarding such assets change. Therefore, we can provide no assurance that material impairment charges with respect to our assets, including operating properties, investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates and developments in progress, will not occur in future periods. Accordingly, we will continue to monitor circumstances and events in future periods to determine whether impairments are warranted.
Operating properties
Accounting for the impairment of long-lived assets requires 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 assets for potential impairment indicators whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Impairment indicators 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, debt maturities, management's intent with respect to the assets and prevailing market conditions.
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 the Company's plans with respect to the project, significant changes in projected completion dates, tenant demand, anticipated 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 flows. 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
F-16
Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
the applicable assets. Although the carrying amount may exceed the estimated fair value of certain assets, 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 determined to be 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 group. The adjusted carrying amount, which represents the new cost basis of the asset, is depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset.
During the respective periods, we determined there were events and circumstances indicating that certain properties were not recoverable and therefore required impairments. As such, we recorded impairment charges related to three operating properties and one non-income producing asset of $68.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2011. In 2011, these provisions reduced the carrying value of certain assets to approximately $37.5 million below the approximately $83.9 million of nonrecourse notes payable related to those assets. The Predecessor recorded impairment charges related to operating properties and properties under development of $35.3 million for the period from January 1, 2010 through November 9, 2010 and $1.08 billion for the year ended December 31, 2009. These impairment charges are included in provisions for impairment in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss), except for $4.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2011, $30.8 million for the period from January 1, 2010 through November 9, 2010 and $831.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2009, which are included in discontinued operations in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).
Investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates
According to the guidance related to the equity method of accounting for investments, a series of operating losses of an investee or other factors may indicate that an other-than-temporary decrease in value of our investment in the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates has occurred. The investment in each of the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates is evaluated periodically and as deemed necessary for valuation declines below the carrying amount. Accordingly, in addition to the property-specific impairment analysis that we perform for such joint ventures (as part of our operating property impairment process described above), we also considered whether there were other-than-temporary impairments with respect to the carrying values of our unconsolidated real estate affiliates.
In the period January 1, 2010 through November 9, 2010, the Predecessor recorded an impairment provision of approximately $21.1 million related to the sale of its interest in Turkey, recorded in equity in income (loss) of Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates. We did not record any provisions for impairment related to our investments in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates for the year ended December 31, 2011, for the period November 10, 2010 through December 31, 2010 and for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Goodwill
The application of acquisition accounting on the Effective Date did not yield any goodwill for the Successor and all prior goodwill amounts of the Predecessor were eliminated (Note 4). With respect to the Predecessor, 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. Recorded goodwill was tested for impairment annually or more frequently if events or changes in
F-17
Table of Contents
GENERAL GROWTH PROPERTIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
NOTE 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
circumstances indicated that the asset might be impaired. The Predecessor assessed fair value based on estimated future cash flow projections that utilized 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. Estimates of future cash flows were 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, exceeded its estimated fair value, the second step of the goodwill impairment test was performed to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any. In this second step, if the implied fair value of goodwill was less than the carrying amount of goodwill, an impairment charge was recorded.
As a result of the procedures performed, the Predecessor recorded provisions for impairment of goodwill of $140.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. During 2010, until the Effective Date, there were no events or circumstances that indicated that the then current carrying amount of goodwill might be impaired.
Acquisitions of Operating Properties
Acquisitions of properties are accounted for utilizing the acquisition method of accounting and, accordingly, the results of operations of acquired properties were included in the 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. No significant value had been ascribed to the tenant relationships at the acquired properties in previous years by the Predecessor or by the Successor in 2010 (Note 4).
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 6), 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 (for example, arising from the application of the acquisition method of accounting as described in Note 4) are amortized over lives ranging from five to 45 years. When cumulative distributions exceed our investment in the joint venture, the investment is reported as a liability in our consolidated financial statements. The liability is limited to our maximum potential obligation to fund contractual obligations, including recourse related to certain debt obligations.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
Highly-liquid investments with maturities at dates of purchase of three months or less are classified as cash equivalents.
Leases
We account for the majority of our leases as operating 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 primarily consist of leasing commissions and related costs and are amortized using the straight-line method over the life of the leases. Deferred expenses also include financing fees we incurred in order to obtain long-term financing and are amortized as interest expense over the terms of the respective financing agreements using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. The acquisition method of accounting eliminated such balances of deferred financing fees and the Successor only has recorded amounts incurred subsequent to the Effective Date.
Revenue Recognition and Related Matters
Minimum rent revenues are recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related operating 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 properties that were fair valued at emergence and acquired properties. The following is a summary of amortization of straight-line rent, net amortization /accretion related to above and below-market tenant leases and termination income:

Overage rent is paid by a tenant when its sales exceed an agreed upon minimum amount, is recognized on an accrual basis once tenant sales exceed contractual tenant lease thresholds and is calculated by multiplying the sales in excess of the minimum amount by a percentage defined in the lease. Recoveries from tenants are established in the leases or computed based upon a formula related to real estate taxes, insurance and other property operating expenses and are generally recognized as revenues in the period the related costs are incurred.
In leasing tenant space, we may provide funding to the lessee through a tenant allowance. In accounting for a tenant allowance, we determine whether the allowance represents funding for the construction of leasehold improvements and evaluate the ownership, for accounting purposes, of such improvements. If we are considered the owner of the leasehold improvements for accounting purposes, we capitalize the amount of the tenant allowance and depreciate it over the shorter of the useful life of the leasehold improvements or the related lease term. If the tenant allowance represents a payment for a purpose other than funding leasehold improvements, or in the event we are not considered the owner of the improvements for accounting purposes, the allowance is considered to be a lease incentive and is recognized over the lease term as a reduction of rental revenue on a straight-line basis.
Income Taxes (Note 8)
To avoid current entity level U.S. federal income taxes, we expect to distribute 100% of our capital gains and ordinary income to shareholders annually. 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 shareholders in computing our taxable income and federal income tax. If any of our REIT subsidiaries fail to qualify as a REIT, such failure could result in our loss of REIT status. If we lose our REIT status, 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 holders of equity securities that would otherwise receive dividends 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.

NOTE 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
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. 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. The Successor experienced a change in control, as a result of the transactions undertaken to emerge from bankruptcy, pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code 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.
Transactions with Affiliates
Management fees and other corporate 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 up to the sale of our management services business in June 2010. The following are fees earned from the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates and third party managed properties which are included in management fees and other corporate revenues on our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss):

Fair Value Measurements
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:
- •
- Level 1—defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
F-21

NOTE 3 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
- •
- Level 2—defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
- •
- Level 3—defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
The following table summarizes our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis during the year ended December 31, 2011 and for the period January 1, 2010 through November 9, 2010. No assets or liabilities were measured at fair value during the period November 10, 2010 through December 31, 2010.

- The fair value of debt relates to the properties that emerged from bankruptcy during the period January 1, 2010 through November 9, 2010.
We estimated fair value relating to these impairment assessments based upon discounted cash flow and direct capitalization models that included all projected cash inflows and outflows over a specific holding period, or the negotiated sales price, if applicable. Such projected cash flows are comprised of unobservable inputs which include contractual rental revenues and forecasted rental revenues and expenses based upon market conditions and expectations for growth. Capitalization rates and discount rates utilized in these models were based upon observable rates that we believed to be within a reasonable range of current market rates for each property analyzed. Based upon these inputs, we determined that our valuations of properties using a discounted cash flow or a direct capitalization model were classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. For our properties for which the estimated fair value was based on estimated sales prices, we determined that our valuation was classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
In addition, the fair value of liabilities related to debt on the properties that filed for bankruptcy and emerged during the period from April 9, 2009 through November 9, 2010 was $15.79 billion as of November 9, 2010 and were fair valued using Level 3 inputs. Fair value was determined based on the net present value of debt using current market rates.

The fair value of our Junior Subordinated Notes approximates their carrying amount as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. We estimated the fair value of this debt based on recent financing transactions, 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"), U.S. 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 Successor, recorded due to the acquisition method of accounting (Note 4). 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.
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 other comprehensive income.
Reorganization Items
Reorganization items 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 Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) of the Predecessor. Reorganization items include legal fees, professional fees and similar types of expenses resulting from activities of the reorganization process, gains on liabilities subject to compromise directly related to the Chapter 11 Cases, and interest earned on cash accumulated by the Debtors as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases. We recognized a net expense on reorganization items of $339.3 million for the period January 1, 2010 through November 9,

2010 and a net credit of $118.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2009. These amounts exclude reorganization items that are currently included within discontinued operations. We did not recognize any reorganization items in 2011 or in the Successor period of 2010.
The terms of engagement and the timing of payment for professional services rendered during our Chapter 11 proceedings were subject to approval by the Bankruptcy Court. In addition, certain of these retained professionals had agreements that provided for success or completion fees that became payable upon the Effective Date. As of December 31, 2010 we accrued $7.1 million of success or completion fees in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. All success fees were fully paid as of December 31, 2011.
In addition, we adopted a key employee incentive program (the "KEIP") which provided for payment to certain key employees upon successful emergence from bankruptcy. The amount payable under the KEIP was calculated based upon a formula related to the recovery to creditors and equity holders measured on the Effective Date and on February 7, 2011, 90 days after the Effective Date. Approximately $181.5 million was paid in two installments, November 12, 2010 and February 25, 2011, under the KEIP. Our liability under the Plan was recognized from the date the KEIP was approved by the Bankruptcy Court to the Effective Date. We accrued a liability for the KEIP in Accounts payable and accrued expenses on the Consolidated Balance Sheets of approximately $115.5 million and $27.5 million as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The related expense was recognized in Reorganization items. All KEIP amounts were fully paid as of December 31, 2011.
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, estimates and assumptions have been made with respect to fair values of assets and liabilities for purposes of applying the acquisition method of accounting, the 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, fair value of debt and cost ratios and completion percentages used for land sales (prior to the spin-off of HHC). Actual results could differ from these and other estimates.

Acquisitions and Dispositions
During 2011, we acquired 11 anchor pads for approximately $78.7 million. In addition, we sold our interest in 14 consolidated properties for aggregate sales proceeds of $507.3 million, which resulted in a $114.8 million reduction in mortgage payable.
On November 10, 2011, GGP and Kimco Realty ("Kimco") executed a joint venture partnership agreement whereby both companies would own 50% interest of Owings Mills Mall, LLC ("Owings Mills Joint Venture"), a property that was previously included in consolidated properties. As part of Owings Mills Joint Venture, GGP and Kimco will redevelop the one million square foot regional mall in Owings Mills, Maryland. Kimco purchased the 50% interest for $16.4 million which was paid directly to GGP and not contributed into the Owings Mills Joint Venture. GGP recognized a $2.1 million gain as a result of the partial sale. GGP will account for Owings Mills using the equity method of accounting as we share control over major decisions and Kimco has substantive participating rights.
On September 19, 2011, we contributed St. Louis Galleria, a wholly-owned regional mall located in St. Louis, Missouri, into a newly formed joint venture, GGP-CPP Venture, LP ("GGP-CPP") which was formed with the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board ("CPP"). CPPIB contributed approximately $83 million of cash into GGP-CPP. GGP-CPP used the cash to purchase Plaza Frontenac, a regional mall located in Frontenac, Missouri, a suburb of St. Louis. In exchange for our contribution of St. Louis Galleria, we received a 55% economic interest in Plaza Frontenac and a 74% economic interest in St. Louis Galleria. GGP is the general partner in GGP-CPP; however, because we share control over major decisions with CPP and CPP has substantive participating rights, we will account for GGP-CPP under the equity method of accounting. No gain or loss was recorded upon the contribution of St. Louis Galleria to GGP-CPP as no cash was received in exchange for the contribution.
In June 2011, we closed on a transaction with a third party in which we sold our ownership share of Superstition Springs Center and Arrowhead Towne Center, both located in Phoenix, Arizona for $120.0 million, which consisted of a sales price of $168.0 million less $48.0 million of debt assumed by the third party. In exchange we received six big-box anchor locations in Arizona, California, Illinois and Utah previously owned by the third party and $75.0 million in cash. The transaction was treated as a non-monetary exchange that resulted in a minimal gain.
In addition, we transferred eight consolidated properties to the lender in lieu of debt, which resulted in a $406.5 million reduction in mortgage notes payable.
Acquisition Method of Accounting Adjustments on the Effective Date
The structure of the Plan Sponsors' investments triggered the acquisition method of accounting, as the Plan and consummation of the Investment Agreements and the Texas Teachers Investment Agreement constituted a business combination. New GGP, Inc. was the acquirer that obtained control as it obtained all of the common stock of the Predecessor (a business for purposes of applying the acquisition method of accounting) in exchange for issuing its stock to the Predecessor common stockholders on a one-for-one basis (excluding fractional shares). The acquisition method of accounting was applied at the Effective Date and, therefore, the Successor's balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 and statements of operations, cash flows and equity for the period November 10, 2010 through December 31, 2010 reflects the revaluation of the Predecessor's assets and liabilities to fair value as of the Effective Date. The acquisition method of accounting has been applied to the assets and liabilities

of the Successor to reflect the acquisition of the Predecessor by the Successor as part of the Plan. The acquisition method of accounting adjustments recorded on the Effective Date reflect the allocation of the estimated purchase price as presented in the table below. Such adjustments reflect the amounts required to adjust the carrying values of our assets and liabilities, after giving effect to the transactions pursuant to the Plan and the distribution of HHC, to the fair values of such remaining assets and liabilities and redeemable noncontrolling interests, with the offset to common equity, as provided by the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with ASC 852-10,Reorganizations, and ASC 805-10,Business Combinations, for the Successor as a new entity including assets, liabilities and a capital structure with carrying values not comparable with prior periods.

The purchase price for purposes of the application of the acquisition method of accounting was calculated using the equity contributions of the Plan Sponsors, Blackstone and Texas Teachers and a $14.00 per share value of the common stock of New GGP, Inc. issued to the equity holders of the Predecessor plus the assumed liabilities of GGP, Inc. (at fair value). The $14.00 per share value of the common stock of GGP, Inc. reflects the "when issued" closing price of New GGP, Inc. common stock on the Effective Date. Such calculation yields a purchase price of approximately $33.1 billion. The aggregate fair value of the assets and liabilities of New GGP, Inc., after the distribution of HHC pursuant to the Plan, were computed using estimates of future cash flows and other valuation techniques, including estimated discount and capitalization rates, and such estimates and techniques were also used to allocate the purchase price of acquired property between land, buildings, equipment, tenant improvements 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. Elements of the Predecessor's working capital have been reflected at current carrying amounts as such short-term items are assumed to be settled in cash within 12 months at such values.
The fair values of tangible assets are determined on an "if vacant" basis. The "if vacant" fair value is allocated to land, where applicable, buildings, equipment and tenant improvements based on comparable sales and other relevant information with respect to the property. Specifically, the "if vacant" value of the buildings and equipment was calculated using a cost approach utilizing published guidelines for current replacement cost or actual construction costs for similar, recently developed properties; and an income approach. Assumptions used in the income approach to the value of buildings include: capitalization and discount rates, lease-up time, market rents, make ready costs, land value, and site improvement value. We believe that the most influential assumption in the estimation of value based on the income approach is the assumed discount rate and an average one half of one percent change in the aggregate discount rates applied to our estimates of future cash flows would result in an approximate 3.5 percent change in the aggregate estimated value of our real estate investments. With respect to developments in progress, the fair value of such projects approximated the carrying value.
The estimated fair value of in-place tenant leases includes lease origination costs (the costs we would have incurred to lease the property to the current occupancy level of the property) and the lost revenues during the period necessary to lease-up from vacant to the current occupancy level. Such estimate includes the fair value of leasing commissions, legal costs and tenant coordination costs that would be incurred to lease the property to this occupancy level. Additionally, we evaluate the time period over which such occupancy level would be achieved and include an estimate of the net operating costs (primarily real estate taxes, insurance and utilities) incurred during the lease-up period, which generally ranges up to one year. The fair value of acquired in-place tenant leases is included in the balance of buildings and equipment and amortized over the remaining lease term for each tenant.
Intangible assets and liabilities were calculated for above-market and below-market tenant and ground leases where we are either the lessor or the lessee. Above-market and below-market tenant and ground lease values were valued (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) based on the difference between the contractual amounts to be received or paid pursuant to the leases and our estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the leases, including below market renewal options. The variance between contract rent versus prevailing market rent is projected to expiration for each particular tenant and discounted back to the date of acquisition. Significant

NOTE 4 ACQUISITIONS, DISPOSITIONS AND INTANGIBLES (Continued)
assumptions used in determining the fair value of leasehold assets and liabilities include: (1) the market rental rate, (2) market reimbursements, (3) the market rent growth rate and (4) discount rates. Above and below-market lease values are amortized over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases (approximately five years for tenant leases and approximately 50 years for ground leases). The remaining term of leases with lease renewal options with terms significantly below (25% or more discount to the assumed market rate of the tenant's space at the time the renewal option is to apply) market reflect the assumed exercise of such renewal options and assume the amortization period would coincide with the extended lease term. Due to existing contacts and relationships with tenants at our currently owned properties and that there was no significant perceived difference in the renewal probability of a tenant based on such relationship, no significant value has been ascribed to the tenant relationships at the properties.
Less than 1% of our leases contain renewal options exercisable by our tenants. In estimating the fair value of the related below market lease liability, we assumed that tenants with renewal options would exercise this option if the renewal rate was at least 25% below the estimated market rate at the time of renewal. We have utilized this assumption, which we believe to be reasonable, because we believe that such a discount would be compelling and that tenants would elect to renew their leases under such favorable terms. We believe that at a discount of less than 25%, the tenant also considers qualitative factors in deciding whether to renew a below-market lease and, accordingly, renewal can not be assumed. In cases where we have assumed renewal of the below-market lease, we have used the terms of the leases, as renewed, including any below market renewal options, to amortize the calculated below-market lease intangible. If we had used a discount to estimated market rates of 10% rather than 25%, there would not have been a material change in the below-market lease intangible or the amortization of such intangible.
With respect to our investments in the Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates, our fair value reflects the fair value of the property held by such affiliate, as computed in a similar fashion to our majority owned properties. Such fair values have been adjusted for the consideration of our ownership and distribution preferences and limitations and rights to sell and repurchase our ownership interests. We estimated the fair value of 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, the current LIBOR and U.S. 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 such amounts. 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.

NOTE 5 DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS AND GAINS (LOSSES) ON DISPOSITIONS OF INTERESTS IN OPERATING PROPERTIES
All of our 2011, 2010 and 2009 dispositions are included in discontinued operations in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and are summarized in the table below. We have five properties classified as held for disposition as of December 31, 2011. These properties have been approved for sale and are expected to be sold or disposed of within 12 months. In March 2011, we revised our intent with respect to two properties previously classified as held for sale (Mall St. Vincent and Southland Center). As we no longer met the criteria for held for sale treatment, we reclassified these two properties as held for use in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2011 and as continuing operations in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) for all periods presented.

Distribution of HHC
As described in Note 2, certain net assets of the Predecessor were distributed to its stockholders to form HHC, a newly formed publicly held real estate company. The Predecessor recorded a loss on distribution for the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the disposal group

when the spin-off transaction was consummated. This loss on distribution of approximately $1.11 billion was recorded by the Predecessor as discontinued operations on the Effective Date based on the fair value of the disposal group calculated based on the difference between the Predecessor's carrying value of the carve-out group of net assets distributed to HHC and the fair value based on $36.50 per share (the NYSE closing price of HHC common stock which was traded on a "when issued" basis on the Effective Date).
NOTE 6 UNCONSOLIDATED REAL ESTATE AFFILIATES
The Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates represents our 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 control of these ventures with our venture partners, we account for these joint ventures under the equity method.
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 $130.6 million as of December 31, 2011 and $155.6 million as of December 31, 2010, and has been reflected as a reduction in our investment in Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates. We are obligated 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, could be reduced to the extent of such deficiencies. As of December 31, 2011, we do not anticipate an inability to perform on our obligations with respect to such Retained Debt.
Indebtedness secured by our Unconsolidated Properties was $5.80 billion as of December 31, 2011 and $6.02 billion as of December 31, 2010. Our proportionate share of such debt was $2.78 billion as of December 31, 2011 and $2.67 billion as of December 31, 2010, including Retained Debt. There can be no assurance that the Unconsolidated Properties will be able to refinance or restructure such debt 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.
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 (the "Aliansce IPO"). Although we did not sell any of our Aliansce shares in the Aliansce IPO, our ownership interest in Aliansce was diluted from 49% to approximately 31% as a result of the stock sold in the Aliansce IPO. We continue to apply the equity method of accounting to our ownership interest in Aliansce. As an equity method investor, we accounted for the shares issued by Aliansce as if we had sold a proportionate share of our investment at the issuance price per share of the Aliansce IPO. Accordingly, the Predecessor recognized a gain of $9.7 million for the period from January 1, 2010 through November 9, 2010, which is reflected in equity in income (loss) of Unconsolidated Real Estate Affiliates.

The weighted-average interest rate excluding the effects of deferred finance costs, on our collateralized mortgages, notes and loans payable was 5.13% at December 31, 2011 and 5.24% at December 31, 2010. The weighted average interest rate, on the remaining corporate unsecured fixed and variable rate debt and the revolving credit facility was 6.18% at December 31, 2011.
We are not aware of any instance of non-compliance with our financial covenants related to our mortgages, notes and loans payable as of December 31, 2011.
During the year ended December 31, 2011, we or our Unconsolidated Real Estate Affliates refinanced the mortgage notes on 20 Consolidated and Unconsolidated regional malls representing $3.24 billion of new mortgage notes at our proportionate share. These 20 new fixed-rate mortgage notes have a weighted average term of 10.16 years and generated cash proceeds in excess of in-place financing of approximately $619 million to GGP. We have also been able to lower the weighted average interest rate of these 20 mortgage notes from 5.83% to 5.06%, while lengthening the term by approximately seven years over the remaining term previously in place.
Collateralized Mortgages, Notes and Loans Payable
As of December 31, 2011, $22.63 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, representing $2.92 billion of debt, are cross-collateralized with other properties. Although a majority of the $15.42 billion of fixed and variable rate collateralized mortgages, notes and loans payable are non-recourse, $2.49 billion of such mortgages, notes and loans payable are recourse due to guarantees or other security provisions for the benefit of the note holder. In addition, certain mortgage loans contain other credit enhancement provisions (primarily master leases for all or a portion of the property) which have been provided by GGP. Certain mortgages, notes and loans 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
We have certain unsecured debt obligations, the terms of which are described below. As the result of a consensual agreement reached in the third quarter of 2010 with lenders of certain of our corporate debt, we recognized $83.7 million of additional interest expense for the period January1, 2010 through November 9, 2010. The results of the Plan treatment for each of these obligations is also described below.
GGP Capital Trust I, a Delaware statutory trust (the "Trust") and a wholly-owned subsidiary of GGPLP, completed a private placement of $200.0 million of trust preferred securities ("TRUPS") in 2006. 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 2041. 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, 2041, but may be redeemed beginning on April 30, 2011 if the Trust exercises its right to redeem a like amount of the Junior 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, 2011 and 2010. The Plan provided for reinstatement of the TRUPS.
We have publicly-traded unsecured bonds of $1.65 billion outstanding as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Such bonds have maturity dates from September 2012 through November 2015 and interest rates ranging from 5.38% to 7.20%. The bonds have covenants, including ratios of secured debt to gross assets and total debt to total gross assets. We expect to repay the $349.5 million of bonds that are due in September 2012.
In connection with the consummation of the Plan, we entered into a revolving credit facility (the "Facility") providing for revolving loans of up to $300 million, none of which was used to consummate the Plan. On February 25, 2011, we amended the Facility to provide for loans up to approximately $720 million and, under certain circumstances, up to $1 billion. On April 11, 2011, we further amended the Facility to provide for loans up to $750 million retaining the right, in certain circumstances, to borrow up to $1 billion. The Facility is scheduled to mature three years from the Effective Date and the Facility is guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries and secured by (i) first lien mortgages on certain properties, (ii) first-lien pledges of equity interests in certain of our subsidiaries and (iii) various additional collateral.
No amounts have been drawn on the Facility. Borrowings under the Facility bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 4.5%. The Facility contains certain restrictive covenants which limit material changes in the nature of our business conducted, including but not limited to, mergers, dissolutions or liquidations, dispositions of assets, liens, incurrence of additional indebtedness, dividends, transactions with affiliates, prepayment of subordinated debt, negative pledges and changes in fiscal periods. In addition, we are required to maintain a maximum net debt to value ratio, a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum net cash interest coverage ratio and we are not aware of any non-compliance with such covenants as of December 31, 2011.

Letters of Credit and Surety Bonds
We had outstanding letters of credit and surety bonds of $19.1 million as of December 31, 2011 and $41.8 million as of December 31, 2010. These letters of credit and bonds were issued primarily in connection with insurance requirements, special real estate assessments and construction obligations.
NOTE 8 INCOME TAXES
We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code. We intend to maintain REIT status. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including requirements to distribute at least 90% of our ordinary taxable income and to either distribute 100% of capital gains to stockholders, or pay corporate income tax on the undistributed capital gains. In addition, the Company is required to meet certain asset and income tests.
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. Generally, we are currently open to audit by the Internal Revenue Service for the years ending December 31, 2007 through 2011 and are open to audit by state taxing authorities for years ending December 31, 2006 through 2011. Two of the Predecessor's taxable REIT subsidiaries distributed as part of HHC were subject to IRS audit for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2008. On February 9, 2011, the two taxable REIT subsidiaries received statutory notices of deficiency ("90-day letters") seeking $144.1 million in additional tax. The two taxable REIT subsidiaries filed petitions in the U.S. Tax Court on May 6, 2011 and the government filed answers on July 6, 2011. It is the Predecessor's position that the tax law in question has been properly applied and reflected in the 2007 and 2008 returns for these two taxable REIT subsidiaries. However, as the result of the IRS' position, the Predecessor previously provided appropriate levels for the additional taxes sought by the IRS, through its uncertain tax position liability or deferred tax liabilities. Although the Predecessor believes the 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, the Predecessor has made adequate tax provisions for the years subject to examination.
Based on our assessment of the expected outcome of examinations that are in process or may commence, or as a result of the expiration of the statute of limitations for specific jurisdictions, we do not expect 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, 2011 during the next twelve months.
As a result of the emergence transactions, the Predecessor and its subsidiaries did experience an ownership change as defined under section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code which will limit its use of certain tax attributes. As such, there are valuation allowances placed on deferred tax assets where appropriate. Most of the attributes of the Predecessor were either used in effecting the reorganization or transferred to HHC. Remaining attributes subject to limitation under Section 382 are not material.

The distribution of assets from the Predecessor in the formation of HHC significantly changed the Successor's exposure to income taxes. The majority of taxable activities within the Predecessor were distributed in the formation of HHC with relatively insignificant taxable activities remaining with the Successor. The vast majority of the Successor's activities are conducted within the REIT structure. REIT earnings are generally not subject to federal income taxes. As such, the Successor's provision for (benefit from) income taxes is not a material item in its financial statements.

Realization of a deferred tax benefit is dependent upon generating sufficient taxable income in future periods. Our TRS net operating loss carryforwards are currently scheduled to expire in subsequent years through 2031. All of the REIT net operating loss carryforward amounts are subject to annual limitations under Section 382 of the Code, although it is not expected that there will be a significant impact as they are expected to be utilized against pre-tax income.

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, 2011, we had gross deferred tax assets totaling $21.6 million, of which a valuation allowance of $17.0 million has been established against certain deferred tax assets, and gross deferred tax liabilities of $29.2 million.

We had unrecognized tax benefits recorded pursuant to uncertain tax positions of $6.1 million as of December 31, 2011, excluding interest, all of which would impact our effective tax rate. Accrued interest related to these unrecognized tax benefits amounted to $0.7 million as of December 31, 2011. The Successor had unrecognized tax benefits recorded pursuant to uncertain tax positions of $7.2 million as of December 31, 2010, excluding interest, all of which would impact our effective tax rate. Accrued interest related to these unrecognized tax benefits amounted to $1.1 million as of December 31, 2010.

Based on the Successor's 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 change from those recorded at December 31, 2011, although such change would not be material to the 2012 financial statements.
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.

NOTE 9 WARRANT LIABILITY
Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreements, the Plan Sponsors and Blackstone were issued, on the Effective Date, 120 million warrants (the "Warrants") to purchase common stock of GGP. Below is a summary of the Warrants received by the Plan Sponsors and Blackstone.

NOTE 9 WARRANT LIABILITY (Continued)
As a result of the RPI distribution, the exercise price of the Warrants were adjusted by $0.3943 for the Brookfield Investor and Blackstone and by $0.3852 for the Fairholme, Pershing Square and Blackstone, on the record date of December 30, 2011, and the total number of issuable shares was 131,748,000.
Each GGP Warrant has a term of seven years and expires on November 9, 2017. The Brookfield Investor Warrants and the Blackstone (A and B) Investor Warrants are immediately exercisable, while the Fairholme Warrants and the Pershing Square Warrants will be exercisable (for the initial 6.5 years from the Effective Date) only upon 90 days prior notice. No Warrants were exercised during the year ended December 31, 2011.
The estimated fair value of the Warrants was $986.0 million on December 31, 2011 and $1.04 billion on December 31, 2010 and is recorded as a liability as the holders of the Warrants could require GGP to settle such warrants in cash in the circumstance of a subsequent change of control. Subsequent to the Effective Date, changes in the fair value of the Warrants have been and will continue to be recognized in earnings. The fair value of the Warrants was estimated using the Black Scholes option pricing model using our stock price and Level 3 inputs (Note 3). The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of the Warrants and significant assumptions used in the valuation as of December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

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 11 EQUITY AND REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS
Noncontrolling Interests
The minority interests related to our common and preferred Operating Partnership units are presented as redeemable noncontrolling interests 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 their fair value as of each measurement date. The redeemable noncontrolling interests have been presented at carrying value plus allocated income (loss) and other comprehensive income as of December 31, 2011 and at fair value as of December 31, 2010. The excess of the fair value over the carrying amount from period to period is recorded within additional paid-in capital in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. Allocation to noncontrolling interests is presented as an adjustment to net income to arrive at net loss attributable to common stockholders.
Generally, the holders of the Common Units share in any distributions by the Operating Partnership with our common stockholders. However, the Operating Partnership agreement permits distributions solely to GGP if such distributions were required to allow GGP to comply with the REIT distribution requirements or to avoid the imposition of excise tax. Under certain circumstances, the conversion rate for each Common Unit is required to be adjusted to give effect to stock distributions. As a result, the common stock dividends declared for 2011 and 2010 modified the conversion rate to 1.0397624. The aggregate amount of cash that would have been paid to the holders of the outstanding Common Units as of December 31, 2011 if such holders had requested redemption of the Common Units as of December 31, 2011, and all such Common Units were redeemed or purchased pursuant to the rights associated with such Common Units for cash, would have been $103.0 million.

NOTE 11 EQUITY AND REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS (Continued)
In addition to the November 7, 2011 cash dividend declared, the Board of Directors approved the distribution of RPI on December 20, 2011 in the form of a special dividend for which GGP shareholders were entitled to receive approximately 0.0375 shares of RPI common stock held as of December 30, 2011. RPI's net equity was recorded as of December 31, 2011 as a dividend payable as substantive conditions for the spin-off were met as of December 31, 2011 and it was probable that the spin-off would occur. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2011, we have recorded a distribution payable of $526.3 million and a related decrease in retained earnings (accumulated deficit), of which $426.7 million relates to the special dividend, on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. On January 12, 2012, we distributed our shares in RPI to the shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 30, 2011. This special dividend satisfied part of our 2011 and the 2012 REIT distribution requirements.
On December 20, 2010, we declared a dividend of $0.38 per share, paid on January 27, 2011 in the amount of approximately $35.8 million in cash and issued approximately 22.3 million shares of common stock (with a valuation of $14.4725 calculated based on the volume weighted average trading prices of GGP's common stock on January 19 and January 21, 2011).
On March 29, 2011, we announced the implementation of our Dividend Reinvestment Plan ("DRIP"). The DRIP provides eligible holders of GGP's common stock with a convenient method of increasing their investment in the Company by reinvesting all or a portion of cash dividends in additional shares of common stock. Eligible stockholders who enroll in the DRIP on or before the fourth business day preceding the record date for a dividend payment will be able to have that dividend reinvested. As a result of the DRIP elections for the dividends declared during 2011, 7,225,345 shares were issued during the year ended December 31, 2011.
In May 2011, we purchased shares of our common stock on the New York Stock Exchange through a private purchase. In addition, on August 8, 2011, the Board of Directors authorized the Company to repurchase up to $250 million of our common stock on the open market. During the year ended December 31, 2011, we have purchased 5,247,580 shares at a weighted average price of $12.53 per share for a total of $65.7 million. The following table summarizes the stock buy-back activity during the year:

NOTE 12 EARNINGS PER SHARE
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 the Warrants are computed using the "if-converted" method and the dilutive effect of options and their equivalents (including fixed awards and nonvested stock issued under stock-based compensation plans), is computed using the "treasury" method.
All options were anti-dilutive for all periods presented because of net losses, and, as such, their effect has not been included in the calculation of diluted net loss per share. In addition, potentially dilutive shares of 40,781,905 related to the Warrants for the year ended December 31, 2010, have been excluded from the denominator in the computation of diluted EPS because they are also anti-dilutive. 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.

NOTE 13 STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
Incentive Stock Plans
On October 27, 2010, New GGP, Inc. adopted the General Growth Properties, Inc. 2010 Equity Plan (the "Equity Plan") which remains in effect after the Effective Date. The number of shares of New GGP, Inc. common stock reserved for issuance under the Equity Plan is equal to 4% of New GGP, Inc.'s outstanding shares on a fully diluted basis as of the Effective Date. The Equity Plan provides for grants of nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, other stock-based awards and performance-based compensation (collectively, "the Awards"). Directors, officers and other employees of GGP's and its subsidiaries and affiliates are eligible for Awards. The Equity Plan is not subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended. No participant may be granted more than 4,000,000 shares, or the equivalent dollar value of such shares, in any year. Options granted under the Equity Plan will be designated as either nonqualified stock options or incentive stock options. An option granted as an incentive stock option will, to the extent it fails to qualify as an incentive stock option, be treated as a nonqualified option. The exercise price of an option may not be less than the fair value of a share of GGP's common stock on the date of grant. The term of each option will be determined prior to the date of grant, but may not exceed ten years.
Pursuant to the Plan, on the Effective Date, unvested options issued by the Predecessor became fully vested. Each option to acquire a share of the Predecessor common stock was replaced by two options: an option to acquire one share of New GGP, Inc. common stock and a separate option to acquire 0.098344 of a share of HHC common stock.
The exercise price under the Predecessor outstanding options was allocated to the New GGP, Inc. options and the HHC options based on the relative fair values of the two underlying stocks. For purposes of such allocation, the volume-weighted price of shares of New GGP, Inc. and HHC during the last ten-day trading period (the "Trading Period") ending on or before the 60th day after the Effective Date was used. As the date of emergence was November 9, 2010, the Trading Period was December 27, 2010 through January 7, 2011. The volume-weighted price of one New GGP, Inc. common share was $15.29 and one HHC common share was $54.13, during the Trading Period and, therefore, the exercise prices for the Predecessor options replaced were allocated in a ratio of approximately 74.15% to GGP and 25.85% to HHC. In addition, we agreed with HHC that all exercises of replacement options, except for those of two former senior executives that they exercised in 2010 immediately upon their termination of employment, would be settled by the employer of the Predecessor employee at the time of exercise.

Stock options under the Equity Plan generally vest in 20% increments annually from one year from the grant date. Options under the 2003 Plan were replaced under the Plan with options, fully vested, in New GGP Inc. common stock. The intrinsic value of outstanding and exercisable stock options as of December 31, 2011 represents the excess of our closing stock price on that date, $15.02, over the exercise price multiplied by the applicable number of shares that may be acquired upon exercise of stock options, and is not presented in the table above if the result is a negative value. The intrinsic value of exercised stock options represents the excess of our stock price at the time the option was exercised over the exercise price and was $0.2 million for options exercised during the year ended December 31, 2011 and $23.7 million for options exercised during the period from November 10, 2010 through December 31, 2010, No stock options were exercised during the period of January 1, 2010 through November 9, 2010, or during the year ended December 31, 2009.

No stock options were granted during the year ended December 31, 2009.
Restricted Stock
Pursuant to the Equity Plan and the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan, GGP and the Predecessor, respectively, made 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 varied in that a portion of the shares vested either immediately or on the first anniversary and the remainder vested in equal annual amounts over the next two to five years. Participating employees were required to remain employed for vesting to occur (subject to certain exceptions in the case of retirement). Shares that did not vest were forfeited. Dividends are paid on restricted stock and are not returnable, even if the underlying stock does not ultimately vest. All the Predecessor grants of restricted stock became vested at the Effective Date. Each share of the Predecessor's previously restricted common stock was replaced on the Effective Date by one share of New GGP, Inc. common stock and 0.098344 of a share of HHC common stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share because no fractional HHC shares were issued in accordance with the Plan).

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 was the current market price ("CMP") as defined in the 1998 Incentive Plan of the Predecessor common stock on the date the TSO was granted. In order for the TSOs to vest, 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 vesting occurs in order to exercise the options. The threshold price was 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 were required to be exercised within 30 days of the vesting date or be forfeited. 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 had been granted and there were no grants in 2008. The 1998 Incentive Plan terminated December 31, 2008. All unvested TSOs vested on the Effective Date and were replaced by vested GGP options and HHC options with equivalent terms as the former TSOs. As most TSOs were granted subsequent to 2004, the majority of the options as replacements for TSOs were forfeited on December 10, 2010. The

The Successor consolidated statements of operations do not include any expense related to the conversion of the Predecessor options to acquire the Predecessor common stock into options to acquire New GGP, Inc. and HHC common stock as such options were fully vested at the Effective Date and no service period expense or compensation expense is therefore recognizable.
As of December 31, 2011, total compensation expense which had not yet been recognized related to nonvested options and restricted stock grants was $61.6 million. Of this total, $19.5 million is expected to be recognized in 2012, $18.4 million in 2013, $12.0 million in 2014, $8.3 million in 2015 and $3.4 million in 2016. 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.

NOTE 17 LITIGATION
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.
Default Interest
Pursuant to the Plan, the Company cured and reinstated that certain note (the "Homart Note") in the original principal amount of $254.0 million between GGP Limited Partnership and The Comptroller of the State of New York as Trustee of the Common Retirement Fund ("CRF") by payment in cash of accrued interest at the contractual non-default rate. CRF, however, contended that the Company's bankruptcy caused the Company to default under the Homart Note and, therefore, post-petition interest accrued under the Homart Note at the contractual default rate was due for the period June 1, 2009 until November 9, 2010. On June 16, 2011, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the "Bankruptcy Court") ruled in favor of CRF, and, on June 22, 2011, the Company elected to satisfy the Homart Note in full by paying CRF the outstanding default interest and principal amount on the Homart Note totaling $246.0 million. As a result of the ruling, the Company incurred and paid $11.7 million of default interest expense during the year ended December 31, 2011. However, the Company has appealed the Bankruptcy Court's order and has reserved its right to recover the payment of default interest.
Pursuant to the Plan, the Company agreed to pay to the holders of claims (the "2006 Lenders") under a revolving and term loan facility (the "2006 Credit Facility") the principal amount of their claims outstanding of approximately $2.58 billion plus post-petition interest at the contractual non-default rate. However, the 2006 Lenders asserted that they were entitled to receive interest at the contractual default rate. In July 2011, the Bankruptcy Court ruled in favor of the 2006 Lenders, and in August 2011, the Company appealed the order. As a result of the ruling, the Company recorded additional default interest of $49.5 million in the year ended December 31, 2011 and has accrued $91.5 million as of December 31, 2011. The Company accrued $42.0 million of default interest as of December 31, 2010 based upon its assessment of default interest amounts that would be paid under the 2006 Credit Facility. We will continue to evaluate the appropriateness of our accrual during the appeal process.

NOTE 17 LITIGATION (Continued)
Tax Indemnification Liability
Pursuant to the Investment Agreements, the Successor has indemnified HHC from and against 93.75% of any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable expenses to which HHC and its subsidiaries become subject, in each case solely to the extent directly attributable to MPC Taxes (as defined in the Investment Agreements) in an amount up to $303.8 million. Under certain circumstances, we agreed to be responsible for interest or penalties attributable to such MPC Taxes in excess of the $303.8 million. As a result of this indemnity, The Howard Hughes Company, LLC and Howard Hughes Properties, Inc. filed petitions in the United States Tax Court on May 6, 2011, contesting this liability. We have accrued $303.8 million as of December 31, 2011 and 2010 related to the tax indemnification liability. In addition, we have accrued $21.6 million of interest related to the tax indemnification liability in accounts payable and accrued expenses on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2011 and $19.7 million as of December 31, 2010. The aggregate liability of $325.4 million represents management's best estimate of our liability as of December 31, 2011, which will be periodically evaluated in the aggregate. We do not expect to make any payments on the tax indemnification liability within the next 12 months.
NOTE 18 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
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.

Contingent Stock Agreement
In conjunction with GGP's acquisition of The Rouse Company ("TRC") in November 2004, GGP assumed TRC's obligations under the Contingent Stock Agreement, ("the "CSA"). Under the terms of the CSA, the Predecessor was required through August 2009 to issue shares of its common stock semi-annually (February and August) to the previous owners of certain assets within the Summerlin Master Planned Community (the "CSA Assets") dependent on the cash flows from the development and/or sale of the CSA Assets and the Predecessor's stock price. During 2009, the Predecessor was not obligated to deliver any shares of its common stock under the CSA as the net development and sales cash flows of the CSA assets were negative for the applicable periods. The Plan provided that the final payment and settlement of all other claims under the CSA would be a total of $230.0 million, all of which has been paid by GGP as of December 31, 2010. On the Effective Date, the CSA assets were spun-out, with the other Summerlin assets, to HHC.
NOTE 19 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On January 12, 2012, we completed the spin-off of RPI, which now owns a 30-mall portfolio, totaling approximately 21 million square feet. The RPI Spin-Off was accomplished through a special dividend of the common stock of RPI to holders of GGP common stock as of December 30, 2011. Subsequent to the spin-off, we retained a 1% interest in RPI. Because RPI is presented as part of our continuing operations as of December 31, 2011, the consolidated financial information presented herein includes RPI for all periods presented.
On February 21, 2012, we sold Grand Traverse Mall to RPI. RPI assumed the debt on the property as consideration for the purchase.

NOTE 21 PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)
The following pro forma financial information has been presented as a result of the acquisition of the Predecessor pursuant to the Plan during 2010.

The following pro forma financial information may not necessarily be indicative of what our actual results would have been if the Plan had been consummated as of the date assumed, nor does it purport to represent our results of operations for future periods.

Included in the above pro forma financial information for the year ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 are the following adjustments:
Minimum rent receipts are recognized on a straight-line basis over periods that reflect the related lease terms, and include accretion and amortization related to above and below market portions of tenant leases. Acquisition accounting pro forma adjustments reflect a change in the periods over which such items are recognized. The adjustment related to straight line rent and accretion and amortization related to above and below market portions of tenant leases was a decrease in revenues of $45.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 and $56.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2009.
Depreciation and amortization have been adjusted to reflect adjustments of estimated useful lives and contractual terms as well as the fair valuation of the underlying assets and liabilities, resulting in changes to the rate and amount of depreciation and amortization.
Interest expense has been adjusted to reflect the reduction in interest expense due to the repayment or replacement of certain of Old GGP's debt as provided by the Plan. In addition, the pro forma information reflects non-cash adjustments to interest expense due to the fair valuing of debt and deferred expenses and other amounts in historical interest expense as a result of the acquisition method of accounting.
Reorganization items have been reversed as the Plan is assumed to be effective and all debtors of the Predecessor are deemed to have emerged from bankruptcy as of the first day of the periods presented and, accordingly, such expenses or items would not be incurred.
