REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust
We have audited the accompanying combined statement of revenues and certain expenses (the “Statement”) of Harvest Junction North and Harvest Junction South (the “Acquired Properties”) for the year ended December 31, 2011. This Statement is the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Statement based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the Statement is free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as it relates to the Statement as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as it relates to the Statement. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the Statement, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the Statement. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
The accompanying Statement was prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (for inclusion in this Form 8-K of Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust) as discussed in Note 1 to the Statement and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the Company’s revenues and expenses.
In our opinion, the Statement presents fairly, in all material respects, the revenues and certain expenses discussed in Note 1 to the Statement for the year ended December 31, 2011, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2012 (unaudited) and the Year Ended December 31, 2011
(dollars in thousands)
1. | Business and Basis of Presentation |
On June 1, 2012, Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust, Inc. (“RGPT”) through its majority-owned partnership subsidiary, Ramco-Gershenson Properties, L.P, completed the acquisitions of Harvest Junction North and Harvest Junction South (the “Acquired Properties”) located in Longmont, Colorado from affiliates of Panattoni Development Company, Inc. for $69.1 million, excluding transaction costs.
Harvest Junction South is 176,960 square feet and includes national retailers, such as Bed Bath & Beyond, Marshalls, Ross Dress for Less, Michaels and Petco. It is adjacent to and has a reciprocal easement agreement with Lowes. Harvest Junction North is 159,385 square feet and is anchored by Best Buy, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Staples and Ulta. Both centers were built in 2006.
The accompanying combined statement of revenues and certain expenses (the “Statements”) have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. The Statements have been prepared for the purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), Regulation S-X, Rule 3-14, and for inclusion in a Current Report on Form 8-K of RGPT. The Statements are not intended to be a complete presentation of the revenues and expenses of the Acquired Properties. Certain expenses, primarily depreciation and amortization, interest, property management fees and other costs not directly related to the future operations of the Acquired Properties, have been excluded.
The statement of revenues and certain expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2012 is unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the revenues and certain expenses for the interim period have been included. Revenues and certain expenses for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.
We have evaluated whether any subsequent events have occurred up through the time of issuing these statements on August 20, 2012.
2. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Revenue Recognition
Our shopping center space is generally leased to retail tenants under leases that are classified as operating leases. We recognize minimum rents using the straight-line method over the terms of the leases commencing when the tenant takes possession of the space and when construction of landlord funded improvements is substantially complete. Certain of the leases also provide for contingent percentage rental income which is recorded on an accrual basis once the specified sales target is achieved. The leases also provide for recoveries from tenants of CAM, real estate taxes and other operating expenses. These recoveries are estimated and recognized as revenue in the period the recoverable costs are incurred or accrued.
Property Operating Expenses
Property operating expenses represent the direct expenses of operating the property and include maintenance, utilities, and repair costs that are expected to continue in the ongoing operations of the Acquired Properties. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the Statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the Statements and accompanying footnotes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3. | Future Minimum Rental Income |
Shopping center space at the Acquired Properties is leased to tenants and certain anchors pursuant to lease agreements. Tenant leases typically provide for minimum rent and other charges to cover operating costs. Future minimum rent obligations under non-cancellable operating leases in effect at December 31, 2011 are as follows:
