During the fourth quarter of 2009, the Company recorded non-cash impairment charges aggregating $88.1 million, net of tax benefit and adjusted for noncontrolling interest holders' share, related to two operational regional malls, certain parcels of land and non-retail real estate, and certain development costs related to projects no longer being pursued. In the second quarter of 2009, the Company recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $140.5 million. (B) Excess investment represents the unamortized difference of the Company's investment over equity in the underlying net assets of the partnerships and joint ventures. The Company generally amortizes excess investment over the life of the related properties, typically no greater than 40 years, and the amortization is included in income from unconsolidated entities. (C) The Company's share of impairment charge from unconsolidated entities is included within the joint venture statements of operations. This charge is presented separately on the consolidated statements of operations along with $35.1 million of impairment charges of investments in certain unconsolidated entities and for which declines in value below our carrying amount were deemed other than temporary.

FFO is a performance measure that is standard in the REIT business. We believe FFO provides investors with additional information concerning our operating performance and a basis to compare our performance with those of other REITs. We also use these measures internally to monitor the operating performance of our portfolio. As adjusted measures exclude the effect of certain non-cash impairment and debt- related charges. We believe these measures provide investors with a basis to compare our current operating performance with previous periods in which we did not have those charges. Our computation of these non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures reported by other REITs. The Company determines FFO based upon the definition set forth by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"). The Company determines FFO to be our share of consolidated net income computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization, excluding gains and losses from extraordinary items, excluding gains and losses from the sales of previously depreciated operating properties, plus the allocable portion of FFO of unconsolidated joint ventures based upon economic ownership interest, and all determined on a consistent basis in accordance with GAAP. The Company has adopted NAREIT's clarification of the definition of FFO that requires it to include the effects of nonrecurring items not classified as extraordinary, cumulative effect of accounting changes, or a gain or loss resulting from the sale of previously depreciated operating properties. We include in FFO gains and losses realized from the sale of land, outlot buildings, marketable and non-marketable securities, and investment holdings of non- retail real estate. However, you should understand that FFO does not represent cash flow from operations as defined by GAAP, should not be considered as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of operating performance, and is not an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. (2) Includes the Company's share of gains on land sales of $2.4 million and $17.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $11.8 million and $19.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. (3) Includes the Company's share of straight-line adjustments to minimum rent of $8.3 million and $5.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $32.1 million and $30.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. (4) Includes the Company's share of the amortization of fair market value of leases from acquisitions of $5.1 million and $5.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $19.9 million and $24.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. (5) Includes the Company's share of debt premium amortization of $3.3 million and $4.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively, and $12.7 million and $14.8 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

All outstanding Series C preferred units were redeemed in August 2009 and all outstanding shares of Series I preferred stock and Series I preferred units were redeemed on April 16, 2010.
