Forward-Looking Statement Disclosure
Certain of the statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including but not limited to those in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Words such as “expects,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “includes,” “plans,” “assumes,” “estimates,” “projects,” “intends,” “should,” “will,” “shall” or variations of such words are generally part of forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are made based on management’s current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects upon Pruco Life Insurance Company, or the “Company”, or the Pruco Life Variable Contract Real Property Account, or the “Real Property Account”. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting the Company and the Real Property Account will be those anticipated by management. These forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties, and there are certain important factors that could cause actual results to differ, possibly materially, from expectations or estimates reflected in such forward-looking statements, including, among others: (1) general economic, market and political conditions, including the performance and fluctuations of fixed income, equity, real estate and other financial markets, particularly in light of ongoing severe economic conditions and the severe stress experienced by the financial markets since the second half of 2007 (2) interest rate fluctuations; (3) reestimates of our reserves for future policy benefits and claims; (4) differences between actual experience regarding mortality, morbidity, persistency, surrender experience, interest rates, or market returns and the assumptions we use in pricing our products, establishing liabilities and reserves or for other purposes; (5) changes in our assumptions related to deferred policy acquisition costs and valuation of business acquired; (6) changes in our claims-paying ratings; (7) investment losses, defaults and counterparty non-performance; (8) competition in our product lines and for personnel; (9) changes in tax law; (10) regulatory or legislative changes, including government actions in response to the stress experienced by the financial markets; (11) adverse determinations in litigation or regulatory matters and our exposure to contingent liabilities; (12) domestic or international military actions, natural or man-made disasters including terrorist activities or pandemic disease, or other events resulting in catastrophic loss of life; (13) ineffectiveness of risk management policies and procedures in identifying, monitoring and managing risks; and (14) changes in statutory or “U.S. GAAP” accounting principles, practices or policies. As noted above, the period since the second half of 2007 has been characterized by extreme adverse market and economic conditions. The foregoing risks are even more pronounced in these unprecedented market and economic conditions. The Company and the Real Property Account do not intend, and are under no obligation, to update any particular forward-looking statement included in this document. See “Risk Factors” included in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2009 for our discussion of certain risks relating to the operation of the Partnership and investment in our securities.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
PRUCO LIFE VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL PROPERTY ACCOUNT
September 30, 2009
(Unaudited)
Note 1: General
Pruco Life Variable Contract Real Property Account (the “Account”) was established on August 27, 1986 and commenced business September 5, 1986. Pursuant to Arizona law, the Account was established as a separate investment account of Pruco Life Insurance Company (“Pruco Life”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Prudential Insurance Company of America (“Prudential”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc. (“PFI”) and is registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The assets of the Account are segregated from Pruco Life’s other assets. The Account is used to fund benefits under certain variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts issued by Pruco Life. These products are Appreciable Life (“VAL”), Variable Life (“VLI”), Discovery Plus (“SPVA”) and Discovery Life Plus (“SPVL”).
The assets of the Account are invested in The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership (the “Partnership”). The Partnership is the investment vehicle for assets allocated to the real estate investment option under certain variable life insurance and annuity contracts. The Account, along with The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Account and the Pruco Life of New Jersey Variable Contract Real Property Account, are the sole investors in the Partnership. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the unaudited interim financial statements of the Partnership.
The Partnership has a policy of investing at least 65% of its assets in direct ownership interests in income-producing real estate and participating mortgage loans.
Note 2: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Pronouncements
A. Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The interim financial data as of September 30, 2009 and for the nine and three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 is unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, the interim data includes all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods. The Account has evaluated subsequent events through November 12, 2009, the date these financial statements were issued as part of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
In September 2006, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for fair value measurements. This guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance does not require any new fair value measurements, but the application of this guidance could change current practices in determining fair value. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 with early adoption permitted. The Account’s adoption effective January 1, 2008 did not have any material effect on the Account’s financial position and result of operations. See Note 9 for more information on “Fair Value Measurements”.
In February 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on fair value option for financial assets and financial liabilities, which provides entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. This guidance also amended certain provisions in the existing guidance for investments in debt and equity securities. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 with early adoption permitted. The Account adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2008. The Account’s adoption has no effect on the Account’s financial position and results of operations.
In December 2007, FASB revised authoritative guidance for business combinations, which expands the definition of a business and redefines the acquisition date in a merger and acquisition transaction. It significantly modifies the existing guidance for business combinations, including changes to acquisition related contingent consideration, preacquisition contingencies, non controlling interest, restructuring costs, in-process R&D, goodwill and partial acquisition. This guidance is effective for acquisitions closing after the first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2008. The Account adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2009. The Account’s adoption has no effect on the Account’s financial position and results of operations, but may have an effect on the accounting for future business combinations.
5
In December 2007, FASB revised the accounting, presentation and disclosure for noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements. This revised guidance will change the accounting for minority interests, which will be recharacterized as noncontrolling interests and classified by the parent company as a component of equity. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008, with early adoption prohibited. Upon adoption, the guidance requires retroactive adoption of the presentation and disclosure requirements for existing minority interests and prospective adoption for all other requirements. The adoption of this guidance has no effect on the Account’s financial position and results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB revised authoritative guidance on issued recognition and presentation of other-than-temporary impairments. This revision amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance for debt securities and expands the presentation and disclosure requirements of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. This revision also requires that the required annual disclosures for debt and equity securities be made for interim reporting periods. This revision does not amend existing recognition and measurement guidance related to other-than-temporary impairments of equity securities. This revision is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Account’s early adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Account’s financial position or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. This guidance also amends the disclosure requirements in interim and annual periods. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Account’s early adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Account’s financial position or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance for accounting for assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies. This guidance requires an asset acquired or liability assumed in a business combination that arises from a contingency to be recognized at fair value at the acquisition date, if the acquisition date fair value of that asset or liability can be determined during the measurement period. If the acquisition date fair value of an asset acquired or liability assumed in a business combination that arises from a contingency cannot be determined during the measurement period, the asset or liability shall be recognized at the acquisition date using the guidance in accounting for contingencies. This guidance also amends disclosure requirements. This guidance is effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. The Account’s adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Account’s financial position or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance for interim disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. This guidance is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted. The Account adopted this guidance within the interim period ending June 30, 2009. The Account’s adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Account’s financial position or results of operations.
In May 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for subsequent events. This guidance addresses the accounting for and disclosure of subsequent events not addressed in other applicable generally accepted accounting principles, including disclosure of the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This guidance is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Account’s adoption of this guidance effective with the interim period ending June 30, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Account’s financial position or results of operations. The required disclosure of the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated is provided in Note 2A.
In July 2009, the FASB launched its Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification), as the sole source of authoritative U.S. GAAP to be applied by nongovernmental entities. The Codification generally does not change the existing rules of U.S. GAAP but rather makes it easier to find and research U.S. GAAP applicable to a particular transaction or specific accounting issue. The Codification is a new structure which takes accounting pronouncements and organizes them by approximately ninety accounting topics and aggregates them in four common accounting areas. Topics within each category are further broken down into subtopics, sections and paragraphs. Accounting standards that are included in the Codification will be considered authoritative whereas those that are not included will be deemed non-authoritative. As a result, there are two levels of U.S. GAAP, authoritative and non-authoritative. The Codification is effective for financial statements that cover the interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009 and will impact the way the Account references U.S. GAAP accounting standards in the financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2009, the FASB issued updated guidance for the fair value measurement of liabilities. This guidance includes techniques for measuring fair value when a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available and clarifies that restrictions preventing the transfer of a liability should not be considered as a separate input or adjustment in the measurement of its fair value. This guidance is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance. The Account is currently assessing the impact of this statement on the Account’s financial position, results of operations and financial statement disclosures.
In September 2009, the FASB issued updated guidance for the fair value measurement of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share including certain alternative investments such as hedge funds, private equity funds, and venture capital funds. This guidance allows companies to determine the fair value of such investments using net asset value (“NAV”) as a practical expedient if the fair value of the investment is not readily determinable and the investee entity issues financial statements in accordance with measurement principles for investment companies. Use of this practical expedient is prohibited if it is probable the investment will be sold at something other than NAV. This guidance also requires new disclosures for each major category of alternative investments. It is effective for the first annual or interim reporting period ending after December 15, 2009, with early application permitted. The Account will adopt this guidance effective December 31, 2009. The Account is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on the Account’s financial position, results of operations and financial statement disclosures.

B. Investment in Partnership Interest
The investment in the Partnership is based on the Account’s proportionate interest of the Partnership’s fair value. At September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 the Account’s interest in the Partnership was 55.0% or 3,552,566 shares and 55.1% or 3,722,570 shares, respectively. Properties owned by the Partnership are illiquid and based on estimated fair value as discussed in the notes to the Partnership’s audited financial statements.
C. Income Recognition
Net investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized daily for the Partnership. Amounts are based upon the Account’s proportionate interest in the Partnership.
D. Equity of Pruco Life Insurance Company
Pruco Life maintains a position in the Account for liquidity purposes, including unit purchases and redemptions, Partnership share transactions and expense processing. The position does not have an effect on the contract owners’ accounts or the related unit values.
Note 3: Charges and Expenses
A. Mortality Risk and Expense Risk Charges
Mortality risk and expense risk charges are determined daily using an effective annual rate of 0.6%, 0.35%, 0.9% and 0.9% for VAL, VLI, SPVA and SPVL, respectively. Mortality risk is the risk that life insurance contract owners may not live as long as estimated or annuitants may live longer than estimated and expense risk is the risk that the cost of issuing and administering the policies may exceed related charges by Pruco Life. The mortality risk and expense risk charges are assessed through reduction in unit values.
B. Administrative Charges
Administrative charges are determined daily using an effective annual rate of 0.35% applied daily against the net assets representing equity of contract owners held in each subaccount for SPVA and SPVL. Administrative charges include costs associated with issuing the contract, establishing and maintaining records, and providing reports to contract owners. The administrative charge is assessed through reduction in unit values.
C. Cost of Insurance and Other Related Charges
Contract owner contributions are subject to certain deductions prior to being invested in the Account. The deductions for VAL and VLI are (1) state premium taxes; (2) sales charges, not to exceed 5% for VAL and 9% for VLI, which are deducted in order to compensate Pruco Life for the cost of selling the contract and (3) transaction costs, applicable to VAL, which are deducted from each premium payment to cover premium collection and processing costs. Contracts are subject to charges on each basic premium for assuming a guaranteed minimum death benefit risk. This charge compensates Pruco Life for the risk that an insured may die at a time when the death benefit exceeds the benefit that would have been payable in the absence of a minimum guarantee. These charges are assessed through the redemption of units.
D. Deferred Sales Charge
A deferred sales charge is imposed upon the surrender of certain variable life insurance contracts to compensate Pruco Life for sales and other marketing expenses. The amount of any sales charge will depend on the number of years that have elapsed since the contract was issued but will not exceed 45% of one scheduled annual premium for VAL contracts and 9% of the initial premium payment for SPVL. No sales charge will be imposed after the sixth and tenth year of the contract for SPVL and VAL, respectively. No sales charge will be imposed on death benefits. This deferred sales charge is assessed through the redemption of units.
E. Partial Withdrawal Charge
A charge is imposed by Pruco Life on partial withdrawals of the cash surrender value for VAL. A charge equal to the lesser of $15 or 2% will be made in connection with each partial withdrawal of the cash surrender value of a contract. This charge is assessed through the redemption of units.
Note 4: Taxes
Pruco Life is taxed as a “life insurance company”, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code. The results of operations of the Account form a part of PFI’s consolidated federal tax return. Under current federal law, no federal income taxes are payable by the Account. As such, no provision for the tax liability has been recorded in these financial statements.

Note 9: Fair Value Disclosure
FASB guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures establishes a framework for measuring fair value that includes a hierarchy used to classify the inputs used in fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels. The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1 – Fair value is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible to the Company for identical assets or liabilities. These generally provide the most reliable evidence and should be used to measure fair value whenever available.
Level 2 – Fair value is based on inputs, other than Level 1 inputs, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability through corroboration with observable market data.
Level 3 – Fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. These inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
The investment in the Partnership is based on the Account’s proportionate interest of the Partnership’s fair value which approximates the Partnership’s net asset value. Properties owned by the Partnership are illiquid and based on estimated fair value from property appraisal reports prepared by independent real estate appraisers as discussed in the notes to the Partnership’s audited financial statements.
The purpose of an appraisal is to estimate the fair value of real estate as of a specific date. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
The estimate of fair value is based on the conventional approaches to value, all of which require the exercise of subjective judgment. The three approaches are: (1) current cost of reproducing the real estate less deterioration and functional and economic obsolescence; (2) discounting a series of income streams and reversion at a specific yield or by directly capitalizing a single year income estimate by an appropriate factor; and (3) value indicated by recent sales of comparable real estate in the market. In the reconciliation of these three approaches, the independent appraiser uses one or a combination of them, to determine the approximated value for the type of real estate in the market.
9
In general, the input values used in the appraisal process are unobservable, therefore unless indicated otherwise; underlying investments in the Partnership are classified as Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
Table 1 below summarizes the assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis and their respective position in the fair value hierarchy.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
THE PRUDENTIAL VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL PROPERTY PARTNERSHIP
September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008
Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
| A. | Basis of Presentation – The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements of The Prudential Variable Contract Real Property Partnership (the “Partnership”) included herein have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair statement have been included. Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2009. For further information, refer to the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in each partner’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008. The Partnership has evaluated subsequent events through November 12, 2009, the date these financial statements were issued as part of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. |
| B. | Accounting Pronouncements Adopted – The Partnership adopted the FASB interpretation guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes as of January 1, 2007. This interpretation prescribes a comprehensive model for how a partnership should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that a partnership has taken or expects to take on a tax return. The adoption of this guidance had no effect to the financial position and result of operations of the Partnership. |
In September 2006, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for fair value measurements. This guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance does not require any new fair value measurements, but the application of this guidance could change current practices in determining fair value. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 with early adoption permitted. The Partnership’s adoption effective January 1, 2008 did not have any material effect on the Partnership’s financial position and result of operations.
In February 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on fair value option for financial assets and financial liabilities, which provides entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. This guidance also amended certain provisions in the existing guidance for investments in debt and equity securities. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 with early adoption permitted. The Partnership adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2008, however, the Partnership did not make a fair value option election for its existing debt. The Partnership’s adoption did not have any effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position and results of operations. Please refer to Note 4 for details.
In December 2007, FASB revised authoritative guidance for business combinations, which expands the definition of a business and redefines the acquisition date in a merger and acquisition transaction. It significantly modifies the existing guidance for business combinations, including changes to acquisition related contingent consideration, preacquisition contingencies, noncontrolling interest, restructuring costs, in-process R&D, goodwill and partial acquisition. This guidance is effective for acquisitions closing after the first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2008. The Partnership’s adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations, but may have an effect on the accounting for future business combinations.
In December 2007, FASB revised the accounting, presentation and disclosure for noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements. This revised guidance requires noncontrolling interests to be reported as a separate component of equity. It also changes the allocation of losses and accounting in step acquisitions. The provisions in this revision should be applied prospectively except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, which are required retrospectively for all periods presented. This guidance is effective for the annual periods beginning after December 15, 2008. The Partnership���s adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations, but did affect financial statement presentation and disclosure. Noncontrolling interests, previously reported as a liability, are now required to be reported as a separate component of equity on the balance sheet, and totaled $4.9 million as of December 31, 2008. In addition, net income (loss) attributable to the noncontrolling interest, which was previously reported as an expense and reflected within Net Investment Income is now reported as a separate amount below “Increase (decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations”, and totaled ($0.5) and ($0.6) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively.

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
| B. | Accounting Pronouncements Adopted (continued) |
In April 2009, the FASB revised authoritative guidance on issued recognition and presentation of other-than-temporary impairments. This revision amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance for debt securities and expands the presentation and disclosure requirements of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. This revision also requires that the required annual disclosures for debt and equity securities be made for interim reporting periods. This revision does not amend existing recognition and measurement guidance related to other-than-temporary impairments of equity securities. This revision is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Partnership’s early adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. This guidance also amends the disclosure requirements in interim and annual periods. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Partnership’s early adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance for accounting for assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies. This guidance requires an asset acquired or liability assumed in a business combination that arises from a contingency to be recognized at fair value at the acquisition date, if the acquisition date fair value of that asset or liability can be determined during the measurement period. If the acquisition date fair value of an asset acquired or liability assumed in a business combination that arises from a contingency cannot be determined during the measurement period, the asset or liability shall be recognized at the acquisition date using the guidance in accounting for contingencies. This guidance also amends disclosure requirements. This guidance is effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. The Partnership’s adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance for interim disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. This guidance is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted. The Partnership adopted this guidance within the interim period ending June 30, 2009. The Partnership’s adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In May 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for subsequent events. This guidance addresses the accounting for and disclosure of subsequent events not addressed in other applicable United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“U.S. GAAP”), including disclosure of the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This guidance is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Partnership’s adoption of this guidance effective with the interim period ending June 30, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. The required disclosure of the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated is provided in Note 1A.
In July 2009, the FASB launched its Accounting Standards Codification (the “Codification”), as the sole source of authoritative U.S. GAAP to be applied by nongovernmental entities. The Codification generally does not change the existing rules of U.S. GAAP but rather makes it easier to find and research U.S. GAAP applicable to a particular transaction or specific accounting issue. The Codification is a new structure which takes accounting pronouncements and organizes them by approximately ninety accounting topics and aggregates them in four common accounting areas. Topics within each category are further broken down into subtopics, sections and paragraphs. Accounting standards that are included in the Codification will be considered authoritative whereas those that are not included will be deemed non-authoritative. As a result, there are two levels of U.S. GAAP, authoritative and non-authoritative. The Codification is effective for financial statements that cover the interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009 and will impact the way the Partnership references U.S. GAAP accounting standards in the financial statements.

| C. | New Accounting Pronouncements |
In August 2009, the FASB issued updated guidance for the fair value measurement of liabilities. This guidance includes techniques for measuring fair value when a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available and clarifies that restrictions preventing the transfer of a liability should not be considered as a separate input or adjustment in the measurement of its fair value. This guidance is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance. The Partnership will adopt this guidance effective with the annual reporting period ended December 31, 2009. The Partnership is currently assessing the impact of this statement on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and financial statement disclosures.
In September 2009, the FASB issued updated guidance for the fair value measurement of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share including certain alternative investments such as hedge funds, private equity funds, and venture capital funds. This guidance allows companies to determine the fair value of such investments using net asset value (“NAV”) as a practical expedient if the fair value of the investment is not readily determinable and the investee entity issues financial statements in accordance with measurement principles for investment companies. Use of this practical expedient is prohibited if it is probable the investment will be sold at something other than NAV. This guidance also requires new disclosures for each major category of alternative investments. It is effective for the first annual or interim reporting period ending after December 15, 2009, with early application permitted. The Partnership will adopt this guidance effective December 31, 2009. The Partnership is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and financial statement disclosures.
Note 2: Reclassification
Certain prior period balances have been reclassified to conform with current period presentation. Such reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net assets.
Note 3: Disclosure of Supplemental Cash Flow Information and Non-Cash Investing and Financing Activity
Cash paid for interest during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, and 2008, was $1,313,693 and $1,413,270, respectively.

Note 4: Fair Value Measurements
Valuation Methods
Real estate investments are carried at fair value. Properties owned are initially recorded at the purchase price plus closing costs. Development costs and major renovations are capitalized as a component of cost, and routine maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Real estate costs include the cost of acquired property, including all the tangible and intangible assets. Tangible assets include the value of all land, building and tenant improvements at the time of acquisition. Intangible assets include the value of any above and below market leases, in-place leases, and tenant relationships at the time of acquisition.
The purpose of an appraisal is to estimate the fair value of real estate as of a specific date. In accordance with the FASB guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The estimate of fair value is based on the conventional approaches to value, all of which require the exercise of subjective judgment. The three approaches are: (1) current cost of reproducing the real estate less deterioration and functional and economic obsolescence; (2) discounting a series of income streams and reversion at a specific yield or by directly capitalizing a single year income estimate by an appropriate factor; and (3) value indicated by recent sales of comparable real estate in the market. In the reconciliation of these three approaches, the independent appraiser uses one or a combination of them, to determine the approximated value for the type of real estate in the market.
Fair Value Measurements:
FASB guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures establishes a fair value measurement framework, provides a single definition of fair value and requires expanded disclosure summarizing fair value measurements. This guidance provides a three-level hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation process. The level in the fair values hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
Level 1- Fair value is based on unadjusted quoted prices inactive markets that are accessible to the entity for identical assets or liabilities. These generally provide the most reliable evidence and should be used to measure fair value whenever available.
Level 2- Fair value is based on inputs, other than Level 1 inputs, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability through corroboration with observable market data.
Level 3- Fair value is based on significant unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. These inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
For items classified as Level 3, a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances, as shown in table 2 below, is also required.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF
THE PRUDENTIAL VARIABLE CONTRACT REAL PROPERTY PARTNERSHIP
September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008
Note 5: Investment Level Debt
Investment level debt includes mortgage loans payable on wholly owned properties and consolidated partnerships and is stated at the principal amount of the obligations outstanding. At times the Partnership may assume debt in connection with the purchase of real estate. For debt assumed, the Partnership allocates a portion of the purchase price to the below/above market debt and amortizes the premium/discount over the remaining life of the debt.
Based on borrowing rates available to the Partnership at September 30, 2009 for loans with similar terms and average maturities, the Partnership’s mortgages on wholly owned properties and consolidated partnerships have an estimated fair value of approximately $40 million, and a carrying value of $40 million. Different assumptions or changes in future market conditions could significantly affect estimated fair value.
Note 6: Risk
A. Valuation Risk
There continue to be significant disruptions in the global capital, credit and real estate markets. These disruptions have led to, among other things, a significant decline in the volume of transaction activity, in the fair value of many real estate and real estate related investments, and a significant contraction in short-term and long-term debt and equity funding sources. The decline in liquidity and prices of real estate and real estate related investments, as well as in the availability of observable transaction data and inputs, may have made it more difficult to determine the fair value of such investments. As a result, these estimated fair values may vary significantly from the prices at which the real estate investments would sell, since market prices of real estate investments can only be determined by negotiation between a willing buyer and seller and these differences could be material to the financial statements. Although the estimated fair values represent subjective estimates, management believes that these estimated fair values are reasonable approximations of market prices and the aggregate estimated value of investments in real estate are fairly presented as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008.
B. Financing, Covenant, and Repayment Risks
In the normal course of business, the Partnership enters into loan agreements with certain lenders to finance its real estate investment transactions. Unfavorable economic conditions could increase related borrowing costs, limit access to the capital markets or result in a decision by lenders not to extend credit to the Partnership. There is no guarantee that the Partnership’s borrowing arrangements or ability to obtain leverage will continue to be available, or if available, will be available on terms and conditions acceptable to the Partnership. Further, these loan agreements contain, among other conditions, events of default and various covenants and representations. In the normal course of business, the Partnership may be in the process of renegotiating terms for loans outstanding that have passed their maturity dates. At September 30, 2009 the Partnership had no outstanding matured loans.
A decline in market value of the Partnership’s assets may also have particular adverse consequences in instances where the Partnership borrowed money based on the fair value of specific assets. A decrease in market value of these assets may result in the lender requiring the Partnership to post additional collateral or otherwise repay these loans.
In the event the Partnership’s current portfolio and investment obligations are not refinanced or extended when they become due and/or the Partnership is required to repay such borrowings and obligations, management anticipates that the repayment of these obligations, will be provided by operating cash flow, new debt refinancing, and real estate investment sales.
Note 7: Commitments and Contingencies
The Partnership is subject to various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. These matters are generally covered by insurance. In the opinion of the Partnership’s management, the outcome of such matters will not have a significant effect on the financial position of the Partnership.

ITEM 2. | MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS |
All of the assets of the Real Property Account, or the “Account”, are invested in the Partnership. Accordingly, the liquidity and capital resources and results of operations for the Account are contingent upon those of the Partnership. Therefore, this management’s discussion and analysis addresses these items at the Partnership level. The partners in the Partnership are Prudential, Pruco Life Insurance Company, and Pruco Life Insurance Company of New Jersey, or collectively, the “Partners”.
The following discussion and analysis of the liquidity and capital resources and results of operations of the Partnership should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Account and the Partnership and the related Notes included in this filing.
(a) Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2009, the Partnership’s liquid assets, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, were approximately $33.2 million, an increase of approximately $5.5 million from $27.7 million at December 31, 2008. The increase was primarily due to cash flows received from the Partnership’s operating activities and the disposition of a retail asset, as discussed below. Partially offsetting this increase were capital expenditures to existing properties and a distribution to the Partners, as detailed below. Sources of liquidity included net cash flow from property operations, financings, dispositions, and interest from short-term investments. The Partnership uses cash for its real estate investment activities and for its distributions to its partners. As of September 30, 2009, approximately 15.5% of the Partnership’s total assets consisted of cash and cash equivalents.
The Partnership disposed of a retail center in Roswell, Georgia during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. The property sold for net proceeds of approximately $9.7 million. Also during the period, the Partnership made distributions to its Partners totaling $8.0 million. As of September 30, 2009, the Partnership had reserved approximately $8.8 million to pay off the loan secured by the apartment property in Atlanta, Georgia, which was paid on October 1, 2009.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Partnership spent approximately $2.5 million on capital improvements to various existing properties. Approximately $0.9 million was associated with leasing commissions and capital upgrades at the office property in Brentwood, Tennessee; approximately $0.3 million was spent on property upgrades and leasing costs at the office property in Lisle, Illinois; approximately $0.3 million funded renovations and repairs at the apartment property in Atlanta, Georgia; approximately $0.3 million contributed to renovations and exterior upgrades at the hotel property in Lake Oswego, Oregon; and approximately $0.2 million financed a parking lot expansion at the office property in Brentwood, Tennessee. The remaining $0.5 million was associated with minor capital improvements and transaction costs associated with leasing expenses of various other properties.
28
(b) Results of Operations
The following is a comparison of the Partnership’s results of operations for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2009, and 2008.
Net Investment Income Overview
The Partnership’s net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was approximately $5.2 million, a decrease of approximately $3.2 million from the prior year period. The decrease in net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest resulted primarily from a $1.3 million decline in the retail sector investments’ net investment income from the prior year period. Additionally the office, apartment, and hotel sector investments’ net investment incomes declined approximately $0.9 million, $0.5 million, and $0.5 million from the prior year period, respectively. The components of this net investment income and/or loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest are discussed below by investment type.
The Partnership’s net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 was approximately $1.7 million, a decrease of approximately $0.7 million from the prior year period. The decrease in net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest was primarily attributable to the $0.5 million decline in the office sector investments’ net investment income from the prior year period. Additionally the hotel and apartment sector investments’ net investment incomes attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest declined approximately $0.2 million and $0.1 million from the prior year period, respectively. Partially offsetting this decline was a decrease in other net investment losses attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $0.1 million from the prior year period. The components of this net investment income and/or loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest are discussed below by investment type.
Valuation Overview
The Partnership recognized a loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of $4.5 million for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009, compared with no realized gains or losses attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the prior year period. The loss was a result of a disposition of an asset at a price below the appraised gross market value of the Partnership’s retail property in Roswell, Georgia.
The Partnership recorded a net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $40.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with a net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $9.4 million for the prior year period. The net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was due to property valuation declines across all property sectors.
The Partnership recorded a net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $9.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared with a net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $8.2 million for the prior year period. The net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 was a result of property valuation declines in the retail, office, hotel, and apartment sector investments of approximately $4.7 million, $3.5 million, $0.8 million, and $0.7 million, respectively. The net unrealized losses attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2009, respectively, were attributable to valuation declines in all property sectors primarily due to increased investment rates suggesting an industry-wide repricing. Investment rates include direct and terminal capitalization rates (average increases for the Partnership of 86 and 55 basis points, respectively, from the period ended December 31, 2008), and discount rates (average increase for the Partnership of 72 basis points from the period ended December 31, 2008), which reflect investors’ yield requirements on investments. The increase in investment rates was caused by the national economic downturn, frozen credit markets, weakening market fundamentals, and deteriorated demand for commercial real estate. The components of these valuation losses are discussed below by investment type.

Net Investment Income
Net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the Partnership’s office properties was approximately $2.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of approximately $0.9 million from the prior year period. Net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the Partnership’s office properties was approximately $0.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of approximately $0.5 million from the prior year period. The decreases for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2009 were primarily due to a) decreased occupancy at the property in Lisle, Illinois; and b) a decrease in occupancy and a rental abatement given to the largest tenant at the property in Brentwood, Tennessee. Partially offsetting this decrease was an increase in net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest at the property in Beaverton, Oregon due to increased rents.

The office properties owned by the Partnership recorded a net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $15.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with a net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $3.8 million for the prior year period. The net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 was primarily due to valuation declines caused by (a) increased investment rates (average direct capitalization rate increases for the Partnership’s office investments of 65 basis points for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009) and implementation of more conservative growth and market leasing projections reflecting the market downturn across the office sector; and (b) significant upcoming capital requirements associated with leasing costs at the properties in Lisle, Illinois and Brentwood, Tennessee.
The office properties owned by the Partnership recorded a net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $3.5 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared with a net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $1.4 million for the prior year period. The net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the three-month period ended September 30, 2009 was primarily due to valuation declines caused by significant upcoming capital requirements associated with leasing costs at the properties in Lisle, Illinois and Brentwood, Tennessee.

Net Investment Income
Net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the Partnership’s apartment properties was approximately $1.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of approximately $0.5 million from the prior year period. The decrease in net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009 was primarily due to the write-off of previous years’ accrued receivables at the property in Raleigh, North Carolina, and increased concessions at each apartment property caused by soft market conditions and weakened demand.
Net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the Partnership’s apartment properties was approximately $0.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of approximately $0.1 million from the prior year period. The decrease in net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 was primarily due to increased concessions at each apartment property caused by soft market conditions and weakened demand.
Unrealized Gain/(Loss)
The apartment properties owned by the Partnership recorded a net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $10.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with a net unrealized gain attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $1.6 million for the prior year period. The apartment properties owned by the Partnership recorded a net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $0.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared with a net unrealized gain attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $0.9 million for the prior year period. The net unrealized losses attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2009 were primarily due to valuation declines caused by increased investment rates (average direct capitalization rate increases for the Partnership’s apartment investments of 79 and 20 basis points, respectively, for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2009) and implementation of more conservative growth and market leasing projections reflecting the market downturn across the apartment sector.

Net Investment Income
Net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the Partnership’s retail properties was approximately $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of approximately $1.3 million from the prior year period. The decrease in net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 was largely due to (a) the loss of income related to the disposition of the Roswell, Georgia retail property; (b) increased vacancy at the retail property in Hampton, Virginia; and (c) increased rent relief across each retail property. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in net investment income at the retail property in Ocean City, Maryland due to increased occupancy resulting from the completion of redevelopment.
Net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the Partnership’s retail properties was approximately $1.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, relatively unchanged from the prior year period. The loss of income related to the disposition of the Roswell, Georgia retail property was offset by a one-time occurrence related to bad debt expense at the retail property in Dunn, North Carolina during the prior year period and the allowance for accrued interest income that was deemed uncollectible and written off at the retail property in Westminster, Maryland during the prior year period.
33
Realized and Unrealized Gain/(Loss)
The retail properties owned by the Partnership recorded a net realized and unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $16.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with a net unrealized gain attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $6.7 million for the prior year period. The unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009 was primarily due to (a) a net realized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $4.5 million at the retail property in Roswell, Georgia due to the disposition of the asset at a price below the appraised gross market value; (b) a net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $1.4 million the Capital Automotive Real Estate Services, or “CARS”, preferred equity investment due to increased market yield expectations for similar financial investments and an increasingly high position in the capital stack, which reflects a decreased likelihood of return of capital; (c) deteriorating retail fundamentals resulting in reduced market rents and increased rent relief across the retail sector investments; (d) increased investment rates (average direct capitalization rate increase for the Partnership’s retail investments excluding “CARS” of 117 basis points for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009); and (e) implementation of more conservative growth and market leasing projections reflecting the market downturn across the retail sector.
The retail properties owned by the Partnership recorded a net realized and unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $4.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared with a net unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $7.3 million for the prior year period. The unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 was primarily due to (a) deteriorating retail fundamentals resulting in reduced market rents and increased rent relief across the retail sector investments; and (b) increased investment rates (average direct capitalization rate increases for the Partnership’s retail investments excluding “CARS” of 40 basis points for the quarter ended September 30, 2009); and (c) implementation of more conservative growth and market leasing projections reflecting the market downturn across the retail sector.

Net Investment Income
Net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the Partnership’s hotel property was approximately $0.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of approximately $0.6 million from the prior year period. Net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the Partnership’s hotel property was approximately $0.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, a decrease of approximately $0.2 million from the prior year period. The decrease in net investment income attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the Partnership’s hotel property for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2009 was largely due to decreased occupancy and average daily room rate at the property as a result of the weakening hospitality market driven by decreased business and vacation travel.
Unrealized Gain/(Loss)
The Partnership’s hotel property recorded an unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $3.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, compared with an unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $0.5 million for the prior year period. The Partnership’s hotel property recorded an unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of approximately $0.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009, compared with an unrealized loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest of $0.4 million for the prior year period. The unrealized losses attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest for the Partnership’s hotel property for both the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2009 were due to valuation declines caused by decreased occupancy and average daily rate, increased investment rates (average direct capitalization rate increases for the Partnership’s hotel investment of 75 basis points for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2009), and implementation of more conservative growth and market leasing projections reflecting the market downturn across the hotel sector.
34
Other
Other net investment loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest remained relatively unchanged from the prior year period for the nine month period ended September 30, 2009. Other net investment loss attributable to the general partners’ controlling interest decreased $0.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2009 over the prior year period. Other net investment includes interest income from short-term investments, investment management fees, and portfolio level expenses.
(c) Inflation
A majority of the Partnership’s leases with its commercial tenants provide for recoveries of expenses based upon the tenant’s proportionate share of, and/or increases in, real estate taxes and certain operating costs, which may partially reduce the Partnership’s exposure to increases in operating costs resulting from inflation.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or “U.S. GAAP”, requires the application of accounting policies that often involve a significant degree of judgment. Management reviews critical estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. If management determines, as a result of its consideration of facts and circumstances, that modifications in assumptions and estimates are appropriate, results of operations and financial position as reported in the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Account and the Partnership may change significantly.
The following sections discuss those critical accounting policies applied in preparing the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements of the Account and the Partnership that are most dependent on the application of estimates and assumptions.
Accounting Pronouncements Adopted
The Partnership adopted the FASB interpretation guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes as of January 1, 2007. This interpretation prescribes a comprehensive model for how a partnership should recognize, measure, present, and disclose in its financial statements uncertain tax positions that the Partnership has taken or expects to take on a tax return. The adoption of this guidance had no effect to the financial position and result of operations of the Partnership.
In September 2006, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for fair value measurements. This guidance defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and requires additional disclosures about fair value measurements. This guidance does not require any new fair value measurements, but the application of this guidance could change current practices in determining fair value. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 with early adoption permitted. The Partnership’s adoption effective January 1, 2008 did not have any material effect on the Partnership’s financial position and result of operations.
In February 2007, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on fair value option for financial assets and financial liabilities, which provides entities with an option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. This guidance also amended certain provisions in the existing guidance for investments in debt and equity securities. This guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 with early adoption permitted. The Partnership adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2008, however, the Partnership did not make a fair value option election for its existing debt. The Partnership’s adoption did not have any effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position and results of operations. Please refer to Note 4 of the related Notes in this filing for details.
In December 2007, FASB revised authoritative guidance for business combinations, which expands the definition of a business and redefines the acquisition date in a merger and acquisition transaction. It significantly modifies the existing guidance for business combinations, including changes to acquisition related contingent consideration, preacquisition contingencies, noncontrolling interest, restructuring costs, in-process R&D, goodwill and partial acquisition. This guidance is effective for acquisitions closing after the first annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2008. The Partnership’s adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations, but may have an effect on the accounting for future business combinations.
In December 2007, FASB revised the accounting, presentation and disclosure for noncontrolling interests in consolidated financial statements. This revised guidance requires noncontrolling interests to be reported as a separate component of equity. It also changes the allocation of losses and accounting in step acquisitions. The provisions in this revision should be applied prospectively except for the presentation and disclosure requirements, which are required retrospectively for all periods presented. This guidance is effective for the annual periods beginning after December 15, 2008. The Partnership’s adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations, but did affect financial statement presentation and disclosure. Noncontrolling interests, previously reported as a liability, are now required to be reported as a separate component of equity on the balance sheet, and totaled $4.9 million as of December 31, 2008. In addition, net income (loss) attributable to the noncontrolling interest, which was previously reported as an expense and reflected within Net Investment Income is now reported as a separate amount below “Increase (decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations”, and totaled ($0.5) and ($0.6) million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008, respectively.
35
In April 2009, the FASB revised authoritative guidance on issued recognition and presentation of other-than-temporary impairments. This revision amends the other-than-temporary impairment guidance for debt securities and expands the presentation and disclosure requirements of other-than-temporary impairments on debt and equity securities in the financial statements. This revision also requires that the required annual disclosures for debt and equity securities be made for interim reporting periods. This revision does not amend existing recognition and measurement guidance related to other-than-temporary impairments of equity securities. This revision is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Partnership’s early adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance on determining fair value when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability have significantly decreased and identifying transactions that are not orderly. This guidance also amends the disclosure requirements in interim and annual periods. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, and shall be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted for periods ending after March 15, 2009. The Partnership’s early adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance for accounting for assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination that arise from contingencies. This guidance requires an asset acquired or liability assumed in a business combination that arises from a contingency to be recognized at fair value at the acquisition date, if the acquisition date fair value of that asset or liability can be determined during the measurement period. If the acquisition date fair value of an asset acquired or liability assumed in a business combination that arises from a contingency cannot be determined during the measurement period, the asset or liability shall be recognized at the acquisition date using the guidance in accounting for contingencies. This guidance also amends disclosure requirements. This guidance is effective for assets or liabilities arising from contingencies in business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after January 1, 2009. The Partnership’s adoption of this guidance effective January 1, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In April 2009, the FASB issued additional guidance for interim disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim reporting periods of publicly traded companies as well as in annual financial statements. This guidance is effective for interim reporting periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted. The Partnership adopted this guidance within the interim period ending June 30, 2009. The Partnership’s adoption of this guidance did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations.
In May 2009, the FASB issued authoritative guidance for subsequent events. This guidance addresses the accounting for and disclosure of subsequent events not addressed in other applicable U.S. GAAP, including disclosure of the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This guidance is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2009. The Partnership’s adoption of this guidance effective with the interim period ending June 30, 2009 did not have a material effect on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position or results of operations. The required disclosure of the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated is provided in Note 1A of the related Notes in this filing.
In July 2009, the FASB launched its Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or the “Codification”, as the sole source of authoritative U.S. GAAP to be applied by nongovernmental entities. The Codification generally does not change the existing rules of U.S. GAAP but rather makes it easier to find and research U.S. GAAP applicable to a particular transaction or specific accounting issue. The Codification is a new structure which takes accounting pronouncements and organizes them by approximately ninety accounting topics and aggregates them in four common accounting areas. Topics within each category are further broken down into subtopics, sections and paragraphs. Accounting standards that are included in the Codification will be considered authoritative whereas those that are not included will be deemed non-authoritative. As a result, there are two levels of U.S. GAAP, authoritative and non-authoritative. The Codification is effective for financial statements that cover the interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009 and will impact the way the Partnership references U.S. GAAP accounting standards in the financial statements.
36
New Accounting Pronouncements
In August 2009, the FASB issued updated guidance for the fair value measurement of liabilities. This guidance includes techniques for measuring fair value when a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available and clarifies that restrictions preventing the transfer of a liability should not be considered as a separate input or adjustment in the measurement of its fair value. This guidance is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance. The Partnership will adopt this guidance effective with the annual reporting period ended December 31, 2009. The Partnership is currently assessing the impact of this statement on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and financial statement disclosures.
In September 2009, the FASB issued updated guidance for the fair value measurement of investments in certain entities that calculate net asset value per share including certain alternative investments such as hedge funds, private equity funds, and venture capital funds. This guidance allows companies to determine the fair value of such investments using net asset value (“NAV”) as a practical expedient if the fair value of the investment is not readily determinable and the investee entity issues financial statements in accordance with measurement principles for investment companies. Use of this practical expedient is prohibited if it is probable the investment will be sold at something other than NAV. This guidance also requires new disclosures for each major category of alternative investments. It is effective for the first annual or interim reporting period ending after December 15, 2009, with early application permitted. The Partnership will adopt this guidance effective December 31, 2009. The Partnership is currently assessing the impact of this guidance on the Partnership’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, and financial statement disclosures.
Valuation of Investments
Real Estate Investments - Real estate investments are carried at fair value. Properties owned are initially recorded at the purchase price plus closing costs. Development costs and major renovations are capitalized as a component of cost, and routine maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Real estate costs include the cost of acquired property, including all the tangible and intangible assets. Tangible assets include the value of all land, building and tenant improvements at the time of acquisition. Intangible assets include the value of any above and below market leases, in-place leases, and tenant relationships at the time of acquisition.
In general fair value estimates are based upon property appraisal reports prepared by independent real estate appraisers (members of the Appraisal Institute or an equivalent organization) within a reasonable amount of time following acquisition of the real estate and no less frequently than annually thereafter. The Chief Real Estate Appraiser of Prudential Investment Management, Inc. (“PIM”), which is an indirectly owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc. (“PFI”), is responsible to assure that the valuation process provides independent and reasonable property fair value estimates. An unaffiliated third party has been appointed by PIM to assist the Chief Real Estate Appraiser in maintaining and monitoring the independence and the accuracy of the appraisal process. The fair value of real estate investments does not reflect the transaction sale costs, which may be incurred upon disposition of the real estate investments.
The purpose of an appraisal is to estimate the fair value of real estate as of a specific date. In accordance with the FASB guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The estimate of fair value is based on the conventional approaches to value, all of which require the exercise of subjective judgment. The three approaches are: (1) current cost of reproducing the real estate less deterioration and functional and economic obsolescence; (2) discounting a series of income streams and reversion at a specific yield or by directly capitalizing a single year income estimate by an appropriate factor; and (3) value indicated by recent sales of comparable real estate in the market. In the reconciliation of these three approaches, the independent appraiser uses one or a combination of them, to determine the approximated value for the type of real estate in the market.
37
Other Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Interest Rate Risk – The general partner’s controlling interest exposure to market rate risk for changes in interest rates relates to approximately 43.87% of its investment portfolio as of September 30, 2009, which consists primarily of short-term commercial paper and fixed and variable interest rate debt. The Partnership does not use derivative financial instruments. As a matter of policy, the Partnership places its investments with high quality debt security issuers, limits the amount of credit exposure to any one issuer, limits duration by restricting the term, and holds investments to maturity except under unusual circumstances.
The table below presents the amounts and related weighted interest rates of the Partnership’s cash equivalents and short-term investments at September 30, 2009:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Maturity | | Estimated Market Value (millions) | | Average Interest Rate | |
Cash and Cash equivalents | | 0-3 months | | $ | 33.2 | | 1.57 | % |
The table below discloses the Partnership’s debt as of September 30, 2009. The fair value of the Partnership’s long-term debt is affected by changes in market interest rates. The following table presents principal cash flows based upon maturity dates of the debt obligations and the related weighted-average interest rates by expected maturity dates for the debt.

The Partnership is exposed to market risk from tenants. While the Partnership has not experienced any significant credit losses, in the event of significant increases in interest rates and/or an economic downturn, delinquencies could increase and result in losses to the Partnership and the Account that could adversely affect its operating results and liquidity.
