Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Trustees and Participants of
General Growth 401(k) Savings Plan
Chicago, Illinois
We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets available for benefits of the General Growth 401(k) Savings Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2012 and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements 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 the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. 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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets of the Plan as of December 31, 2012, and the changes in net assets for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets held at end of year as of December 31, 2012 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. This supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

GENERAL GROWTH 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
NOTE 1. Description of Plan and Significant Plan Provisions
The following description of the General Growth 401(k) Savings Plan (the “Plan”) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the plan document, which may be obtained from the Plan Administrator (as defined below), for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.
General: GGP Limited Partnership (the “Company”) is the Plan Sponsor and Plan Administrator. Vanguard Fiduciary Trust Company (“VFTC”) is the trustee of the Plan. The Plan is designed to encourage and assist eligible employees to adopt a regular program of savings to provide for their retirement. The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all full-time and part-time (as defined) employees of the Company and its affiliates and subsidiaries. Employees are eligible to participate in the Plan on their first day of employment with the Company and/or once the employees attain the age of eighteen. Certain individuals at locations managed by the Company are either employees of companies not owned or controlled by the Company or are covered by other qualified plans and, therefore, are not eligible to participate in the Plan. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) and the financial statements and schedule presented have been prepared in accordance with the financial reporting requirements of ERISA.
Rouse Properties, Inc. Spin-Off and formation of the Rouse Properties, Inc. 401(k) Savings Plan: The Board of Directors approved a distribution of Rouse Properties, Inc. (“RPI”) on December 20, 2011 in the form of a special dividend for which General Growth Properties (“GGP”) shareholders were entitled to receive approximately 0.0375 shares of RPI common stock for each share held as of December 30, 2011.
Additionally, pursuant to the RPI spin-off, a new 401(k) savings plan for RPI employees was created effective on January 12, 2012. RPI employees with account balances in the Plan were terminated from the Plan and given the option to rollover their funds to the RPI 401(k) Savings Plan.
Contributions: Under the terms of the Plan, subject to certain limitations, each participant is allowed to make before-tax contributions in 1% increments up to 50% of gross earnings, as defined in the plan document. The Internal Revenue Code (“IRC”) imposes, among other things, a dollar limitation on the amount of before-tax contributions for a calendar year. For 2012, a participant’s before-tax contribution was generally limited to $17,000. Also for 2012, participants age 50 and over were eligible to contribute a before-tax catch-up contribution of up to $5,500. Participants may also designate all or part of their plan contributions as Roth 401(k) contributions, which are after-tax contributions. The Company adds to a participant’s account through a matching contribution up to 5% of the participant’s annual earnings contributed to the Plan. The Company will match 100% of the first 4% of earnings contributed by each participant and 50% of the next 2% of earnings contributed by each participant.
Participant accounts: Separate accounts are maintained for each Plan participant. Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contributions, rollover deposits and allocations of the Company’s contributions and plan earnings, and charged with an allocation of plan losses and administrative expenses. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances as defined in the Plan. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is limited to the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s vested account. Participants designate which investment option or combination of options in which their contributions and the Company’s matching contributions are to be invested.
GENERAL GROWTH 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
At December 31, 2012, the Plan included the following investment options:
· Thirty registered investment companies which offer investments in stocks, bonds and cash equivalents;
· Common stock of the Company, a publicly-traded real estate investment trust (“Employer Stock Fund”), subject to certain limitations as discussed below; and
· Vanguard Retirement Savings Trust, a collective investment trust, which invests primarily in investment contracts issued by insurance companies, banks or other financial institutions.
On April 21, 2009, the Employee Stock Fund was closed to all new contributions. Contributions made to the Employee Stock Fund prior to April 21, 2009 may remain invested therein.
Notes receivable from participants: Participants may borrow against their account, subject to certain administrative rules. The minimum loan that will be made is $1,000 and the total of any individual participant’s loan or loans may never exceed the lesser of 50% of the participant’s total vested account balance or $50,000. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account and bear interest at the prime rate on the first business day of the month in which the loan is made plus one percent. As of January 1, 2011, any new loans may not exceed five years. Principal and interest are due each pay period. Participant loans are due and payable within 90 days upon termination of employment. Delinquent participant loans are reclassified as distributions based on the terms in the plan document.
Vesting: Employee and employer contributions for contributions made on or after January 1, 1998 vest immediately.
Termination: Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company reserves the right to partially or completely terminate the Plan, subject to the provisions of the Plan and ERISA. Upon a complete or partial termination of the Plan, all affected participant’s benefits will be distributable to the participant or the participant’s beneficiary.
Payment of benefits: Upon termination of service due to death, disability, retirement on or after attaining the Plan’s normal retirement age of 60, or termination of employment, the balances in the participant’s separate accounts may be paid in lump sum to the participant, or in the event of death, the participant’s beneficiary. Prior to termination of service, a participant may withdraw contributions by claiming hardship, as defined by the Plan. GGP stock will be distributed in cash or stock, as elected by the Participant. All other distributions will be made in cash.
Terminated participants’ vested account balances less than $5,000 and greater than $1,000 will be transferred into an eligible retirement plan, unless the participant elects to receive the distribution directly or to have the distribution paid directly to an eligible retirement plan specified by the participant. For participant account balances of $1,000 or less, lump sum cash distributions will be made.
GENERAL GROWTH 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of accounting: The financial statements were prepared using the accrual method of accounting.
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 disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Valuation of investments: The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value. Units of the Vanguard Retirement Savings Trust (“VRST”), a common collective trust which invests primarily in investment contracts, are valued at fair value and then adjusted to contract value. Contract value is calculated as the sum of the principal balance plus accrued interest, less amounts withdrawn to pay benefits. Both the fair value of the Plan’s investment in the VRST and the adjustment to contract value is reflected on the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits. Refer to Note 3 Fair Value Measurements for disclosure regarding the valuation methodologies used to measure fair value of the Plan’s participant-directed investments.
Investment transactions: Investment income is allocated and recorded daily to the participants’ accounts. Purchases and sales of investments are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is accrued when earned. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Capital gain distributions are included in dividend income.
Administrative expenses: Certain expenses of maintaining the Plan are paid directly by the Company and are excluded from these financial statements. Only expenses paid by the Plan are reflected in the Plan’s financial statements.
Payment of benefits: Benefit payments to participants are recorded upon distribution.
NOTE 3. Fair Value Measurements
The Plan measures its financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a recurring basis in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles related to fair value. The fair value measurement guidance establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:
· Level 1 - defined as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets;
· 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 asset’s or liability’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of relevant observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
GENERAL GROWTH 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Plan’s policy is to recognize transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy as of the end of the reporting period. There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy during 2012 & 2011.
The valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value are as follows:
· Short-term money market and registered investment companies - Shares in these funds are valued at quoted market prices which represent the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end.
· Common collective trust — The Plan’s investments are stated at fair value except for its common collective trust fund investment, which is valued at contract value. Contract value represents investments at cost plus accrued interest income less amounts withdrawn to pay benefits. The fair value of the common collective trust fund is based on the fair value of the underlying net assets at the measurement date by the issuer of the fund. The common collective trust fund primarily holds guaranteed investment contracts. The issuer determines the fair value of the guaranteed investment contract based on current yields of similar instruments with comparable durations taking into account the contract terms including interest reset intervals and the credit rating of the issuer. There were no unfunded commitments as of December 31, 2012 or December 31, 2011.
· Fixed income securities and equity securities - Fixed income securities in the Vanguard Brokerage Option are valued using the last quoted bid price. Equity securities in the Vanguard Brokerage Option are valued at the last quoted sales price as of the close of trading at year-end; such securities not traded on the year-end date are valued at the last quoted bid prices.
· Employer Stock Fund — The Employer Stock Fund is valued using the year-end market price of GGP common stock plus any uninvested cash held in the fund.
The following table summarizes the Plan’s financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as of December 31, 2012 and 2011:

The Plan also holds other assets not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, including, contributions receivable and participant notes receivable. The fair value of these assets approximates the carrying amounts in the accompanying financial statements due to either the short maturity of the instruments or the use of interest rates that approximate market rates for instruments of similar maturity. Under the fair value hierarchy, these financial instruments are valued primarily using level 2 inputs.

NOTE 5. Income Tax Status
The Plan received its latest determination letter on February 10, 2006, applicable for the Plan’s amendments effective on May 1, 2002; December 31, 2002; January 1, 2003; and January 1, 2004, in which the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) stated the Plan, as then designed, was in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. Management does not believe that any plan amendments made subsequent to January 1, 2004 affect the qualification of the Plan.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability if the Plan has taken an uncertain
GENERAL GROWTH 401(k) SAVINGS PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The Plan Administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan, and has concluded that as of December 31, 2012, there are no uncertain positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or disclosure in the financial statements. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The Plan Administrator believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2009.
NOTE 6. Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan provides for investment in various investment securities. The investments of the Plan are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities and the level of uncertainty related to changes in the value of investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in values of investments in the near term would materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits and the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits.
NOTE 7. Exempt Party-In-Interest Transactions
As of April 21, 2009, the Employee Stock Fund was closed to new contributions. Contributions made to the Employee Stock Fund prior to April 21, 2009 may remain invested therein.
The Plan invests in shares of registered investment companies managed by an affiliate of VFTC. Transactions in such investments qualify as party-in-interest transactions which are exempt from the prohibited transaction rules. Fees incurred by the Plan for investment management services were included as a reduction of the return earned on each fund. Administrative fees paid by participants, which reduced plan net assets, were $78,849 in 2012.
