RAMCO-GERSHENSON PROPERTIES TRUST
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization

Ramco-Gershenson Properties Trust, together with its subsidiaries (the “Company”), is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) engaged in the business of owning, developing, acquiring, managing and leasing community shopping centers located in the Eastern and Midwestern regions of the United States.  At June 30, 2011, we owned and managed, either directly or through our interest in real estate joint ventures, a portfolio of 89 shopping centers and one office building, with approximately 20.6 million square feet of gross leaseable area (“GLA”), of which 15.7 million is owned directly by us and our real estate joint ventures.  We also owned interests in four parcels of land held for development or sale and four parcels of land adjacent to certain of our existing developed properties. Our land is located in Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Tennessee and Virginia.  Most of our properties are anchored by supermarkets and/or national chain stores. The Company’s credit risk, therefore, is concentrated in the retail industry.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and our majority owned subsidiary, the Operating Partnership, Ramco-Gershenson Properties, L.P. (93.2% and 92.9% owned by the Company at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively), and all wholly-owned subsidiaries, including entities in which we have a controlling financial interest or have been determined to be a primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”).  We have elected to be a REIT for federal income tax purposes.  All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The information furnished is unaudited and reflects all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to reflect a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10−K.
 
The preparation of our unaudited financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management of the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and reported amounts that are not readily apparent from other sources.  Actual results could differ from those estimates. 
 
Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made in the condensed consolidated financial statements in order to conform to the current presentation.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In July 2010, the FASB updated ASC 310 “Receivables” with ASU 2010-20 “Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses”, which requires enhanced disclosures about financing receivables, including the allowance for credit losses, credit quality, and impaired loans.  This standard is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2010.  We adopted the standard in the fourth quarter of 2010 and it did not have a material impact to our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2011, the FASB updated ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” with ASU 2011-04 “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS”.  The amendments change the wording used to describe many of the requirements in U.S. GAAP for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements. This standard is to be applied prospectively and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011.  We do not expect this update to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In June 2011, the FASB updated ASC 220 “Comprehensive Income” with ASU 2011-05 “Presentation of Comprehensive Income”, which requires an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income, and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements.  This standard is to be applied retrospectively and is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011.  We do not expect this update to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

We continuously monitor the collectability of our accounts receivable from specific tenants, analyze historical bad debts, customer credit worthiness, current economic trends and changes in tenant payment terms when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for bad debts.  Allowances are taken for those balances that we have reason to believe will be uncollectible.  When tenants are in bankruptcy, we make estimates of the expected recovery of pre-petition and post-petition claims.  The period to resolve these claims can exceed one year.  Management believes the allowance for doubtful accounts is adequate to absorb currently estimated bad debts.  However, if we experience bad debts in excess of the allowance we have established, our operating income would be reduced.  At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, our allowance for doubtful accounts was approximately $3.0 million and $3.8 million, respectively.

3.   Real Estate

Included in our net real estate is income producing shopping center properties that are recorded at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization.

We review our investment in real estate, including any related intangible assets, for impairment on a property-by-property basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the remaining estimated useful lives of those assets may warrant revision or the applicable holding period changes and that the carrying value of the property may not be recoverable.  There was no impairment loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010.

Land held for development or sale represents projects where vertical construction has yet to commence, but which have been identified by us as available for future development if and when market conditions dictate the demand for a new shopping center.  Land held for development or sale was $94.3 million and $93.3 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Construction in progress represents existing development and redevelopment projects. When projects are substantially complete and ready for their intended use, balances are transferred to land or buildings and improvements as appropriate.  Construction in progress was $2.7 and $2.6 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

(1) Fixed interest rate until January 2013, and then at LIBOR plus 3.30%.                
 
Our fixed rate mortgages have interest rates ranging from 5.1% to 7.6%, and are due at various maturity dates from November 2011 through April 2020.  Included in fixed rate mortgages at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were unamortized premium balances related to the fair market value of debt of $0.1 million.  Our variable rate mortgages have interest rates ranging from 3.7% to 6.0%, and are due at various dates from December 2011 through June 2012.  The mortgage notes, both fixed rate and variable rate, are secured by mortgages on properties that have an approximate net book value of $393.8 million as of June 30, 2011.
 
On April 29, 2011, we closed on a new $250.0 million unsecured bank facility (the “Credit Facility”) comprised of a $175.0 million revolving line of credit and a $75.0 million term loan.  The Credit Facility replaces our prior secured line and secured term loan.  The new revolving line of credit and term loan are due in April 2014 and April 2015, respectively.  Subject to customary conditions, both the revolving line and the term loan can be extended for one year at our option.   Borrowings under the facility are priced at LIBOR plus 200 to 275 basis points depending on our leverage ratio.  It is anticipated that funds borrowed under the aforementioned Credit Facility will be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures, repayment of indebtedness or other corporate activities.
 
In the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we recorded a one-time write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs related to the prior secured revolving line of credit and term loan of approximately $2.0 million.  This amount is included in loss on early extinguishment of debt on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.  The remaining $1.5 million in unamortized deferred financing costs related to the prior credit facility will be amortized over the term of the new facility.
 
At June 30, 2011, outstanding letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility, not reflected in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets, were $0.3 million. These letters of credit reduce the availability under the Credit Facility.

The Credit Facility contains financial covenants relating to total leverage, fixed charge coverage ratio, tangible net worth and various other calculations. As of June 30, 2011, we were in compliance with the covenant terms.

In May 2011, we repaid one wholly-owned property mortgage in the amount of $14.3 million.  The mortgage bore interest at a fixed rate of 7.6%.

A $9.2 million non-recourse mortgage note that is secured by our wholly-owned Madison Center property located in Madison Heights, Michigan, was due May 1, 2011.  The note entered default status in May when we did not repay the note at maturity.  The lender is working with us to transfer the property title to the lender and release our obligation.  Until we are legally released from our obligation, we will continue to accrue interest at the default rate of 12.5%.  Accrued interest on this note, including the default interest, was approximately $0.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011.
 
 
Page 14 of 43

 
 
In April 2011, we used net proceeds from our cumulative convertible perpetual preferred share offering to repay our $30.0 million secured bridge loan and reduce borrowings on our Credit Facility.  Additionally, in March 2011, the $30.0 million secured term loan facility was repaid in full.

On March 31, 2011, we closed on a new $24.7 million mortgage secured by the Jackson Crossing shopping center in Jackson, Michigan that has an approximate net book value of $27.6 million.  The mortgage bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.8% and matures in April 2018.

The mortgage loans encumbering our properties, including properties held by our unconsolidated joint ventures, are generally non-recourse, subject to certain exceptions for which we would be liable for any resulting losses incurred by the lender.  These exceptions vary from loan to loan but generally include fraud or a material misrepresentation, misstatement or omission by the borrower, intentional or grossly negligent conduct by the borrower that harms the property or results in a loss to the lender, filing of a bankruptcy petition by the borrower, either directly or indirectly, and certain environmental liabilities.  In addition, upon the occurrence of certain events, such as fraud or filing of a bankruptcy petition by the borrower, we or our joint ventures would be liable for the entire outstanding balance of the loan, all interest accrued thereon and certain other costs, including penalties and expenses.

We have entered into mortgage loans which are secured by multiple properties and contain cross-collateralization and cross-default provisions. Cross-collateralization provisions allow a lender to foreclose on multiple properties in the event that we default under the loan. Cross-default provisions allow a lender to foreclose on the related property in the event a default is declared under another loan.

The following table presents scheduled principal payments on mortgages and notes payable as of June 30, 2011:

With respect to the various mortgages due in 2011 and 2012, it is our intent to refinance or repay these mortgages and notes payable.  However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to refinance our debt on commercially reasonable or any other terms.

9.   Other Liabilities

Other liabilities were $2.7 million and $3.5 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.  In December 2010, we acquired The Shoppes at Fox River in Waukesha, Wisconsin.  As part of the transaction, we recorded a $1.8 million deferred liability related to the fair value of an earn-out provision if certain spaces that were vacant at acquisition were to become leased in the future.  In January 2011, we paid the seller for the leasing of one of the vacant spaces included in the earn-out provision, thereby reducing the deferred liability by approximately $0.6 million.  In June 2011, an additional vacant space was leased further reducing the deferred liability by approximately $0.2 million.

Also in the fourth quarter of 2010, we recorded a deferred liability of $1.5 million related to a tax increment financing agreement with the City of West Allis, Wisconsin (“City”) for the redevelopment of the West Allis Towne Centre.  The City reimbursed us for certain costs incurred to improve the shopping center which will be repaid to the City over ten years in the form of increased property tax assessments, not to exceed $0.2 million per year until 2020.

10.  Fair Value

We utilize fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures.  Derivative instruments (interest rate swaps) are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, we, from time to time, may be required to record other assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis.  As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, GAAP establishes three fair value levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.  The assessed inputs used in determining any fair value measurement could result in incorrect valuations that could be material to our consolidated financial statements. These levels are:
 
Level 1
Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets.
   
Level 2
Valuation is based upon quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.
   
Level 3
Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
 
The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for our assets and liabilities recorded at fair value.

Derivative Assets and Liabilities

In the past, we had interest rate swaps for which quoted market prices are not readily available.  For those derivatives, we measure fair value on a recurring basis using valuation models that use primarily market observable inputs, such as yield curves.  We classify derivative instruments as Level 2.  As of June 30, 2011, we did not have any interest rate swaps in effect.  Refer to Note 11 for additional information on our derivative financial instruments.

We did not have any material assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2011.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair values because of the short maturity of these financial instruments. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the carrying amounts of our borrowings under variable rate debt approximated fair value.

We estimated the fair value of fixed rate mortgages using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on our incremental borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements with the same remaining maturity.  The following table summarizes the fair value and net book value of properties with fixed rate debt:

  $ 367,720     $ 369,384  
                 

The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for our assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis:

Net Real Estate

Our net real estate, including any identifiable intangible assets, is subject to impairment testing on a nonrecurring basis.  To estimate fair value, we use discounted cash flow models that include assumptions of the discount rates that market participants would use in pricing the asset. To the extent impairment has occurred, we charge to expense the excess of the carrying value of the property over its estimated fair value.  We classify impaired real estate assets as nonrecurring Level 3.  As of June 30, 2011, we did not have any material real estate required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Equity Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
 
Our equity investments in unconsolidated joint ventures are subject to impairment testing on a nonrecurring basis if a decline in the fair value of the investment below the carrying amount is determined to be a decline that is other-than-temporary.  To estimate the fair value of properties held by unconsolidated entities, we use cash flow models, discount rates, and capitalization rates based upon assumptions of the rates that market participants would use in pricing the asset.  To the extent other-than-temporary impairment has occurred, we charge to expense the excess of the carrying value of the equity investment over its estimated fair value.  We classify other-than-temporarily impaired equity investments in unconsolidated entities as nonrecurring Level 3.  We did not have any material equity investments in unconsolidated joint ventures that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis at June 30, 2011.

11.  Derivative Financial Instruments

We utilize interest rate swap agreements for risk management purposes to reduce the impact of changes in interest rates on our variable rate debt.  On the date we enter into an interest rate swap, the derivative is designated as a hedge against the variability of cash flows that are to be paid in connection with a recognized liability.  Subsequent changes in the fair value of a derivative designated as a cash flow hedge that is determined to be highly effective are recorded in other comprehensive income (“OCI”) until earnings are affected by the variability of cash flows of the hedged transaction. The differential between fixed and variable rates to be paid or received is accrued, as interest rates change, and recognized currently as interest expense in the consolidated statement of income.

As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had no interest rate swap agreements in effect.  As of June 30, 2010, we had interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate notional of $90.0 million.  Based on rates in effect at June 30, 2010, the agreements provided for fixed rates ranging from 6.4% to 6.7% on a portion of our prior secured credit facility.  All outstanding interest rate swaps expired in December of 2010.

The effect of derivative financial instruments on our condensed consolidated statements of income for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 is summarized as follows:
