Notes to the Condensed Carve-out Financial Statements
NOTE 1: NATURE AND DESCRIPTION OF THE Operations
The Commercial Property Operations of Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (“Brookfield” or the “parent company”) consist of substantially all of Brookfield’s commercial property operations, including office, retail, multi-family and industrial and opportunistic investments, located in the United States, Canada, Australia, Brazil and Europe that have historically been owned and operated, both directly and through its operating entities, by Brookfield (collectively, the “Business” or the “company”). These operations include interests in 122 office properties and 171 retail properties. In addition, Brookfield has interests in a multi-family and industrial platform and an 18 million square foot commercial office development pipeline.
Brookfield will effect a reorganization so that an interest in the Business is acquired by holding entities, which will be owned by a subsidiary of Brookfield Property Partners L.P. (the “partnership”), a newly-formed limited partnership. Brookfield intends to transfer the Business through a special dividend to holders of its Class A limited voting shares and Class B limited voting shares of a portion of the partnership’s non-voting limited partnership units (the “spin-off”). The partnership’s sole direct investment will be a limited partner interest in Brookfield Property L.P. (the “property partnership”) which will control the Business through the holding entities. It is currently anticipated that immediately following the spin-off, the holders of Class A limited voting shares and Class B limited voting shares will own approximately 7.56% of the issued and outstanding units of the company on a fully-exchanged basis and Brookfield will hold units of the company and units of the property partnership that, taken together on a fully-exchanged basis represent approximately 7.56% of the units of the company. The partnership will control the strategic, financial and operating policy decisions of the property partnership pursuant to a voting agreement to be entered into between the partnership and Brookfield. Wholly-owned subsidiaries of Brookfield will serve as the general partners for both the partnership and the property partnership.
The parent company’s registered head office is Brookfield Place, 181 Bay Street, Suite 300, Toronto, Ontario, M5J 2T3.
NOTE 2: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
These interim condensed carve-out financial statements represent a carve-out of the assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses, and cash flows of the Business that will be contributed to the partnership. These interim condensed carve-out financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” (“IAS 34”), as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Accordingly, certain information and footnote disclosure normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”), as issued by the IASB, have been omitted or condensed.
The interim condensed carve-out financial statements have been prepared using the same accounting policies and methods as those used in the carve-out financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, except for the impact of the adoption of the accounting standards described below. The interim condensed carve-out financial statements have been presented in U.S. dollars rounded to the nearest million unless otherwise indicated.
Due to the inherent limitations of carving out the assets, liabilities, operations and cash flows from larger entities, these financial statements may not necessarily reflect the company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flow for future periods, nor do they reflect the financial position, results of operations and cash flow that would have been realized had the Business been a stand-alone entity during the periods presented.
These interim condensed carve-out financial statements should be read in conjunction with the carve-out financial statements of the Business for the year ended December 31, 2012.
| (b) | Adoption of Accounting Standards |
The company adopted IFRS 10, “Consolidated Financial Statements” (“IFRS 10”), IFRS 11, “Joint Arrangements” (“IFRS 11”) and IFRS 12, “Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities” (“IFRS 12”), effective January 1, 2013.
| (i) | As a result of the adoption of IFRS 10, the company has changed its accounting policy with respect to determining whether it has control over and consequently whether it consolidates its investees. IFRS 10 introduces a new control model that is applicable to all investees; among other things, it requires the consolidation of an investee if the company controls the investee on the basis of de facto circumstances. In accordance with the transitional provisions of IFRS 10, the company re-assessed the control conclusion for its investees at January 1, 2013. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. |
| (ii) | As a result of the adoption of IFRS 11, the company has changed its accounting policy with respect to its interests in joint arrangements. Under IFRS 11, the company classifies its interests in joint arrangements as either joint operations or joint ventures depending on the company’s rights to the assets and obligation for the liabilities of the arrangements. When making this assessment, the company considers the structure of the arrangements, the legal form of any separate vehicles, the contractual terms of the arrangements and other facts and circumstances. Previously, the structure of the arrangement was the sole focus of classification. The company has re-evaluated its involvement in its joint arrangements. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. |
| (iii) | IFRS 12 requires the company to disclose information that helps users to evaluate the nature, risks and financial effects associated with the company’s interests in subsidiaries, associates, joint arrangements and unconsolidated structured entities. The adoption of this guidance will be reflected in the company’s consolidated financial statements. |
The company adopted IFRS 13, “Fair Value Measurement” (“IFRS 13”), effective January 1, 2013. IFRS 13 establishes a single source for fair value measurements and disclosures about fair value measurements. IFRS 13 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires disclosures about fair value measurements. The scope of IFRS 13 is broad; it applies to both financial instrument items and non-financial instrument items for which other IFRSs require or permit fair value measurements and disclosures about fair value measurements, expect in specified circumstances. The adoption of this guidance did not result in any changes to carrying amounts, however additional disclosures have been reflected in the company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
The company adopted Amendments to IAS 1, “Presentation of Items of Other Comprehensive Income” (“Amendments to IAS 1”), effective January 1, 2013. Amendments to IAS 1 require the company to present the items of other comprehensive income that may be reclassified to profit or loss in the future if certain conditions are met, separately from those that would never be reclassified to profit or loss. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on the company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with IAS 34 requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires management to exercise judgment in applying the company’s accounting policies. The critical accounting estimates and judgments have been set out in Note 2 to the Business’ carve-out financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012.

(1) Property dispositions represent fair value at time of sale, or the selling price. |
The Business determines the fair value of each operating property based upon, among other things, rental income from current leases and assumptions about rental income from future leases reflecting market conditions at the applicable balance sheet dates, less future cash outflows in respect of such leases. Fair values are primarily determined by discounting the expected future cash flows, generally over a term of 10 years including a terminal value based on the application of a capitalization rate to estimated year 11 cash flows. Certain operating properties are valued using a direct capitalization approach whereby a capitalization rate is applied to estimated current year cash flows. Development properties under active development are also measured using a discounted cash flow model, net of costs to complete, as of the balance sheet date. Development sites in the planning phases are measured using comparable market values for similar assets. In accordance with its policy, the Business measures its operating properties and development properties using valuations prepared by management. The company does not measure its properties based on valuations prepared by external valuation professionals.
The key valuation metrics for operating properties, including properties accounted for under the equity method, are set out in the following table on a weighted-average basis:
| | Mar. 31, 2013 | Dec. 31, 2012 |
| Primary Valuation Method | Discount Rate | Terminal Capitalization Rate | Investment Horizon (yrs) | Discount Rate | Terminal Capitalization Rate | Investment Horizon (yrs) |

(1) The valuation method used is the direct capitalization method. The amounts presented as the discount rate relate to the implied overall capitalization rate. The terminal capitalization rate and investment horizon are not applicable. |
During the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Business capitalized a total of $54 million (2012 - $68 million) of costs related to development properties. Included in this amount is $36 million (2012 - $48 million) of construction and related costs and $18 million (2012 - $20 million) of borrowing costs capitalized. The weighted average interest rate used for the capitalization of borrowing costs to development properties for the three months ended March 31, 2013 is 6.9% (2012 - 6.1%).

Fair value hierarchy
The Business values instruments carried at fair value using quoted market prices, where available. Quoted market prices represent a Level 1 valuation. When quoted market prices are not available, the Business maximizes the use of observable inputs within valuation models. When all significant inputs are observable, the valuation is classified as Level 2. Valuations that require the significant use of unobservable inputs are considered Level 3.
The following table outlines financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value in the financial statements and the level of the inputs used to determine those fair values in the context of the hierarchy as defined above:

NOTE 24: SEGMENTED INFORMATION
The company has four operating segments which are independently reviewed and managed by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who is identified as the company’s chief executive officer. The operating segments are office, retail, multi-family and industrial, and opportunistic investments, located in the United States, Canada, Australia, Brazil and Europe.
The CODM measures and evaluates segment performance based on equity attributable to parent company, net operating income (“NOI”), funds from operations (“FFO”) and Total Return. NOI, FFO and Total Return do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and therefore may differ from similar metrics used by other companies. The Business defines these measures as follows:
| · | NOI: means revenues from commercial and hospitality operations of consolidated properties less direct commercial property and hospitality expenses, with the exception of depreciation and amortization of real estate assets. |
| · | FFO: means income, including equity accounted income, before realized gains (losses), fair value gains (losses) (including equity accounted fair value gains (losses)), depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, income tax expense (benefit), and less non-controlling interests. |
| · | Total return: means income before income tax expense (benefit) and related non-controlling interests. |
