I tem 1. | BUSINESS

General Development of Business

DDR Corp., an Ohio corporation (the “Company” or “DDR”), a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”), is in the business of acquiring, owning, developing, redeveloping, expanding, leasing, financing and managing shopping centers. Unless otherwise provided, references herein to the Company or DDR include DDR Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures.

The Company is self-administered and self-managed and, therefore, has not engaged, nor does it expect to retain, any REIT advisor. The Company manages all of the Portfolio Properties as defined herein. At December 31, 2016, the Company owned and managed approximately 106 million total square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”).

The primary source of the Company’s income is generated from the rental of the Company’s Portfolio Properties to tenants. In addition, the Company generates revenue from its management contracts for the unconsolidated joint venture assets, as well as interest income from notes receivable.

Financial Information About Industry Segments

See the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for certain information regarding the Company’s reportable segments, which is incorporated herein by reference to such information.

Narrative Description of Business

The Company’s portfolio as of February 10, 2017, consisted of 317 shopping centers (including 152 centers owned through joint ventures) and more than 650 acres of undeveloped land (of which approximately 100 acres are owned through unconsolidated joint ventures). The shopping centers are located in 35 states as well as Puerto Rico (14 assets). The shopping centers and land are collectively referred to as the “Portfolio Properties.” From January 1, 2014, to February 10, 2017, the Company sold 170 shopping centers (including 70 properties owned through unconsolidated joint ventures) aggregating 25.1 million square feet of Company-owned GLA for an aggregate sales price of $2.9 billion. From January 1, 2014, to February 10, 2017, the Company acquired 96 shopping centers (including 76 that were acquired by two unconsolidated joint ventures and nine that were acquired from unconsolidated joint ventures) aggregating 17.4 million square feet of Company-owned GLA for an aggregate purchase price of $3.3 billion. In 2014, the Company sold its entire investment in 10 assets in Brazil for an aggregate sales price of $343.6 million.

The following tables present the operating statistics affecting base and percentage rental revenues summarized by the following portfolios: combined shopping center portfolio, wholly-owned shopping center portfolio and joint venture shopping center portfolio.

| Combined Shopping Center Portfolio December 31, |  |  | Wholly-Owned Shopping Centers December 31, |  |  | Joint Venture Shopping Centers December 31, |
| 2016 |  |  |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2016 |  |  |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2016 |  |  |  |  | 2015 |

Average annualized base rent per occupied square foot(A) | $ | 15.00 |  |  |  |  | $ | 14.48 |  |  | $ | 15.54 |  |  |  |  | $ | 14.80 |  |  | $ | 14.17 |  |  |  |  | $ | 13.95 |

| (A) | The increase in the average annualized base rent per occupied square foot primarily was due to the change in the mix of the Company’s portfolio, as well as continued leasing of the existing portfolio at positive rental spreads.

Strategy and Philosophy

The Company’s mission is to provide the most compelling shopping experience for its retail partners by owning the highest-quality portfolio of open-air shopping centers. The Company strives to deliver attractive total shareholder return through earnings growth, a sustainable dividend and a strong balance sheet that is well-positioned through all cycles.

The overall investment, operating and financing policies of the Company, which govern a variety of activities, such as capital allocations, dividends and status as a REIT, are determined by management and the Board of Directors. Although management and the Board of Directors have no present intention to materially amend or revise its policies, the Board of Directors may do so from time to time without a vote of the Company’s shareholders.

4

Certain of t he Company’s key strategies are summarized as follows:

| • | Operate with a low risk profile and achieve further balance sheet improvement through continued focus on lowering leverage and maintaining long-term debt duration that allows for access to capital in all market cycles,

| • | Own and acquire high-quality shopping centers in major markets with attractive growth profiles.

| • | Invest in assets that are expected to appreciate over the long term in locations that retailers will desire for the best marketing and distribution of their goods and services.

| • | Focus on long-term net asset value creation within the portfolio through strategic leasing, re-tenanting and redevelopment to be the preeminent landlord to the retailers that are gaining market share and that are most successfully adapting in an omni-channel retailing environment and

| • | Continue to build and develop a team of empowered employees to perform at the highest level and provide a workplace that rewards their talents and successes.

Recent Developments

See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in Item 7 and the Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, for information on certain recent developments of the Company, which is incorporated herein by reference to such information.

Tenants and Competition

As one of the nation’s largest owners and operators of open-air shopping centers (measured by total GLA), the Company has established close relationships with a large number of major national and regional retailers. The Company’s management is associated with, and actively participates in, many shopping center and REIT industry organizations.

Notwithstanding these relationships, numerous developers and real estate companies, private and public, compete with the Company in leasing space in shopping centers to tenants. The Company competes with other real estate companies and developers in terms of rental rate, property location, availability of other space, management services and maintenance.

The Company’s five largest tenants based on the Company’s aggregate annualized base rental revenues, including its proportionate share of joint venture aggregate annualized base rental revenues, are TJX Companies, Bed Bath & Beyond, PetSmart, Walmart and Kohl's, representing 3.8%, 3.4%, 2.9%, 2.7% and 2.4%, respectively, of the Company’s aggregate annualized base rental revenues at December 31, 2016. For more information on the Company’s tenants, see Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under the caption Company Fundamentals.

Qualification as a Real Estate Investment Trust

As of December 31, 2016, the Company met the qualification requirements of a REIT under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). As a result, the Company, with the exception of its taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”), will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent it meets certain requirements of the Code.

Employees

As of January 31, 2017, the Company had 540 full-time employees. The Company considers its relations with its personnel to be good.

I tem 1A. | RISK FACTORS

The risks described below could materially and adversely affect the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and cash flows. These risks are not the only risks the Company faces. The Company’s business operations could also be affected by additional factors that are not presently known to it or that the Company currently considers to be immaterial to its operations.

The Economic Performance and Value of the Company’s Shopping Centers Depend on Many Factors, Each of Which Could Have an Adverse Impact on the Company’s Cash Flows and Operating Results

The economic performance and value of the Company’s real estate holdings can be affected by many factors, including the following:

| • | Changes in the national, regional, local and international economic climate;

| • | Local conditions, such as an oversupply of space or a reduction in demand for real estate in the area;

| • | The attractiveness of the properties to tenants;

| • | The increase in consumer purchases through the Internet;

| • | The Company’s ability to provide adequate management services and to maintain its properties;

| • | Increased operating costs, if these costs cannot be passed through to tenants and

| • | The expense of periodically renovating, repairing and re-letting spaces.

Because the Company’s properties consist of retail shopping centers, the Company’s performance is linked to general economic conditions in the retail market, including conditions that affect consumers’ purchasing behaviors and disposable income. The market for retail space has been and may continue to be adversely affected by weakness in the national, regional and local economies, the adverse financial condition of some large retailing companies, the ongoing consolidation in the retail sector, increases in consumer Internet purchases and the excess amount of retail space in a number of markets. The Company’s performance is affected by its tenants’ results of operations which are impacted by macroeconomic factors that affect consumers’ ability to purchase goods and services. If the price of the goods and services offered by its tenants materially increases, including as a result of increases in taxes or tariffs resulting from, among other things, potential changes in the Code, the operating results and the financial condition of the Company' tenants and demand for retail space could be adversely affected. To the extent that any of these conditions occur, they are likely to affect market rents for retail space. In addition, the Company may face challenges in the management and maintenance of its properties or incur increased operating costs, such as real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, that may make its properties unattractive

6

to tenants. The loss of rental revenues from a number of the Company’s ten ants and its inability to replace such tenants may adversely affect the Company’s profitability and ability to meet its debt and other financial obligations and make distributions to shareholders.

The Company Relies on Major Tenants, Making It Vulnerable to Changes in the Business and Financial Condition of, or Demand for Its Space by, Such Tenants

As of December 31, 2016, the annualized base rental revenues of the Company’s tenants that are equal to or exceed 1.5% of the Company’s aggregate annualized shopping center base rental revenues, including its proportionate share of joint venture aggregate annualized shopping center base rental revenues, are as follows:

Tenant |  | % of Annualized Base Rental Revenues |
TJX Companies |  |  | 3.8% |
Bed Bath & Beyond |  |  | 3.4% |
PetSmart |  |  | 2.9% |
Walmart |  |  | 2.7% |
Kohl's |  |  | 2.4% |
AMC Theatres |  |  | 2.3% |
Best Buy |  |  | 2.3% |
Dick's Sporting Goods |  |  | 2.2% |
Ross Stores |  |  | 2.0% |
Michaels |  |  | 1.9% |
Gap |  |  | 1.6% |

The retail shopping sector has been affected by economic conditions as well as the competitive nature of the retail business and the competition for market share where stronger retailers have out-positioned some of the weaker retailers. These shifts have forced some market share away from weaker retailers and required them, in some cases, to declare bankruptcy and/or close stores.

As information becomes available regarding the status of the Company’s leases with tenants in financial distress or as the future plans for their spaces change, the Company may be required to write off and/or accelerate depreciation and amortization expense associated with a significant portion of the tenant-related deferred charges in future periods. The Company’s income and ability to meet its financial obligations could also be adversely affected in the event of the bankruptcy, insolvency or significant downturn in the business of one of these tenants or any of the Company’s other major tenants. In addition, the Company’s results could be adversely affected if any of these tenants do not renew their leases as they expire on terms favorable to the Company or at all.

The Company’s Dependence on Rental Income May Adversely Affect Its Ability to Meet Its Debt Obligations and Make Distributions to Shareholders

Substantially all of the Company’s income is derived from rental income from real property. As a result, the Company’s performance depends on its ability to collect rent from tenants. The Company’s income and funds for distribution would be negatively affected if a significant number of its tenants, or any of its major tenants, were to do the following:

| • | Experience a downturn in their business that significantly weakens their ability to meet their obligations to the Company;

| • | Delay lease commencements;

| • | Decline to extend or renew leases upon expiration;

| • | Fail to make rental payments when due or

| • | Close stores or declare bankruptcy.

Any of these actions could result in the termination of tenants’ leases and the loss of rental income attributable to the terminated leases. Lease terminations by an anchor tenant or a failure by that anchor tenant to occupy the premises could also result in lease terminations or reductions in rent by other tenants in the same shopping centers under the terms of some leases. In addition, the Company cannot be certain that any tenant whose lease expires will renew that lease or that it will be able to re-lease space on economically advantageous terms. The loss of rental revenues from a number of the Company’s major tenants and its inability to replace such tenants may adversely affect the Company’s profitability and its ability to meet debt and other financial obligations and make distributions to shareholders.

7

The Company’s Ability to Incr ease Its Debt Could Adversely Affect Its Cash Flow

At December 31, 2016, the Company had outstanding debt of $4.5 billion (excluding its proportionate share of unconsolidated joint venture mortgage debt aggregating $412.9 million as of December 31, 2016). The Company intends to maintain a conservative ratio of debt to total market capitalization (the sum of the aggregate market value of the Company’s common shares and operating partnership units, the liquidation preference on any preferred shares outstanding and its total consolidated indebtedness). The Company is subject to limitations under its credit facilities and indentures relating to its ability to incur additional debt; however, the Company’s organizational documents do not contain any limitation on the amount or percentage of indebtedness it may incur. If the Company were to become more highly leveraged, its cash needs to fund debt service would increase accordingly. Under such circumstances, the Company’s risk of decreases in cash flow due to fluctuations in the real estate market, reliance on its major tenants, acquisition and development costs and the other factors discussed in these risk factors, could subject the Company to an even greater adverse impact on its financial condition and results of operations. In addition, increased leverage could increase the risk of default on the Company’s debt obligations, which could further reduce its cash available for distribution and adversely affect its ability to dispose of its portfolio on favorable terms, which could cause the Company to incur losses and reduce its cash flows.

Disruptions in the Financial Markets Could Affect the Company’s Ability to Obtain Financing on Reasonable Terms and Have Other Adverse Effects on the Company and the Market Price of the Company’s Common Shares

The U.S. and global equity and credit markets have experienced significant price volatility, dislocations and liquidity disruptions in the past, which have caused market prices of many stocks to fluctuate substantially and the spreads on prospective debt financings to widen considerably. These circumstances materially affected liquidity in the financial markets, making terms for certain financings less attractive and, in certain cases, resulting in the unavailability of certain types of financing. Uncertainty in the equity and credit markets may negatively affect the Company’s ability to access additional financing at reasonable terms or at all, which may negatively affect the Company’s ability to refinance its debt, obtain new financing or make acquisitions. These circumstances may also adversely affect the Company’s tenants, including their ability to enter into new leases, pay their rents when due and renew their leases at rates at least as favorable as their current rates.

A prolonged downturn in the equity or credit markets may cause the Company to seek alternative sources of potentially less attractive financing and may require it to adjust its business plan accordingly. In addition, these factors may make it more difficult for the Company to sell properties or may adversely affect the price it receives for properties that it does sell, as prospective buyers may experience increased costs of financing or difficulties in obtaining financing. These events in the equity and credit markets may make it more difficult or costly for the Company to raise capital through the issuance of its equity or debt securities. These disruptions in the financial markets also may have a material adverse effect on the market value of the Company’s common shares and other adverse effects on the Company or the economy in general. There can be no assurances that government responses to the disruptions in the financial markets will restore consumer confidence, stabilize the markets or increase liquidity and the availability of equity or credit financing.

Changes in the Company’s Credit Ratings or the Debt Markets, as well as Market Conditions in the Credit Markets, Could Adversely Affect the Company’s Publicly Traded Debt and Revolving Credit Facilities

The market value for the Company’s publicly traded debt depends on many factors, including the following:

| • | The Company’s credit ratings with major credit rating agencies;

| • | The prevailing interest rates being paid by, or the market price for publicly traded debt issued by, other companies similar to the Company;

| • | The Company’s financial condition, liquidity, leverage, financial performance and prospects and

| • | The overall condition of the financial markets.

The condition of the financial markets and prevailing interest rates have fluctuated in the past and are likely to fluctuate in the future. The U.S. credit markets and the sub-prime residential mortgage market have experienced severe dislocations and liquidity disruptions in the past. Furthermore, uncertain market conditions can be exacerbated by leverage. The occurrence of these circumstances in the credit markets and/or additional fluctuations in the financial markets and prevailing interest rates could have an adverse effect on the Company’s ability to access capital and its cost of capital.

In addition, credit rating agencies continually review their ratings for the companies they follow, including the Company. The credit rating agencies also evaluate the real estate industry as a whole and may change their credit rating for the Company based on their overall view of the industry. Any rating organization that rates the Company’s publicly traded debt may lower the rating or decide, at its sole discretion, not to rate the publicly traded debt. The ratings of the Company’s publicly traded debt are based primarily on the rating organization’s assessment of the likelihood of timely payment of interest when due and the payment of

8

principal on the maturity date. A negative change in the Company’s rating could have an adverse effect on the Company’s revolving credit facilities and market price of the Company’s publicly traded debt as well as the Company’s ability to access capita l and its cost of capital.

The Company’s Cash Flows and Operating Results Could Be Adversely Affected by Required Payments of Debt or Related Interest and Other Risks of Its Debt Financing

The Company is generally subject to the risks associated with debt financing. These risks include the following:

| • | The Company’s cash flow may not satisfy required payments of principal and interest;

| • | The Company may not be able to refinance existing indebtedness on its properties as necessary, or the terms of the refinancing may be less favorable to the Company than the terms of existing debt;

| • | Required debt payments are not reduced if the economic performance of any property declines;

| • | Debt service obligations could reduce funds available for distribution to the Company’s shareholders and funds available for development, redevelopment and acquisitions;

| • | Any default on the Company’s indebtedness could result in acceleration of those obligations, which could result in the acceleration of other debt obligations and possible loss of property to foreclosure and

| • | The Company may not be able to finance necessary capital expenditures for purposes such as re-leasing space on favorable terms or at all.

If a property is mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness and the Company cannot or does not make the mortgage payments, it may have to surrender the property to the lender with a consequent loss of any prospective income and equity value from such property, which may also adversely affect the Company’s credit ratings. Any of these risks can place strains on the Company’s cash flows, reduce its ability to grow and adversely affect its results of operations.

The Company’s Financial Condition Could Be Adversely Affected by Financial Covenants

The Company’s credit facilities and the indentures under which its senior and subordinated unsecured indebtedness is, or may be, issued contain certain financial and operating covenants, including, among other things, leverage ratios and certain coverage ratios, as well as limitations on the Company’s ability to incur secured and unsecured indebtedness, sell all or substantially all of its assets and engage in mergers and certain acquisitions. These credit facilities and indentures also contain customary default provisions including the failure to pay principal and interest issued thereunder in a timely manner, the failure to comply with the Company’s financial and operating covenants, the occurrence of a material adverse effect on the Company and the failure of the Company or its majority-owned subsidiaries (i.e., entities in which the Company has a greater than 50% interest) to pay when due certain indebtedness in excess of certain thresholds beyond applicable grace and cure periods. These covenants could limit the Company’s ability to obtain additional funds needed to address cash shortfalls or pursue growth opportunities or transactions that would provide substantial return to its shareholders. In addition, a breach of these covenants could cause a default or accelerate some or all of the Company’s indebtedness, which could have a material adverse effect on its financial condition.

The Company Has Variable-Rate Debt and Is Subject to Interest Rate Risk

The Company has indebtedness with interest rates that vary depending upon the market index. In addition, the Company has revolving credit facilities that bear interest at a variable rate on any amounts drawn on the facilities. The Company may incur additional variable-rate debt in the future. Increases in interest rates on variable-rate debt would increase the Company’s interest expense, which would negatively affect net earnings and cash available for payment of its debt obligations and distributions to its shareholders.

Property Ownership Through Partnerships and Joint Ventures Could Limit the Company’s Control of Those Investments and Reduce Its Expected Return

Partnership or joint venture investments may involve risks not otherwise present for investments made solely by the Company, including the possibility that the Company’s partner or co-venturer might become bankrupt, that its partner or co-venturer might at any time have different interests or goals than the Company and that its partner or co-venturer may take action contrary to the Company’s instructions, requests, policies or objectives, including the Company’s policy with respect to maintaining its qualification as a REIT. In addition, the Company’s partner or co-venturer could have different investment criteria that would impact the assets held by the joint venture or its interest in the joint venture. These situations could have an impact on the Company’s revenues from its joint ventures. Other risks of joint venture investments include impasse on decisions, such as a sale, because neither the Company’s partner or co-venturer nor the Company would have full control over the partnership or joint venture. These factors could limit the return that the Company receives from such investments, cause its cash flows to be lower than its estimates or lead to business conflicts or

9

li tigation. There is no limitation under the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, or its Code of Regulations, as to the amount of funds that the Company may invest in partnerships or joint ventures. In addition, a partner or co-venturer may not have access to sufficient capital to satisfy its funding obligations to the joint venture. Furthermore, if credit conditions in the capital markets deteriorate, the Company could be required to reduce the carrying value of its equity method investments if a loss in the carrying value of the investment is considered an other than temporary decline. As of December 31, 2016, the Company had $454.1 million of investments in and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures holding 151 shopping centers.

The Company’s Real Estate Assets May Be Subject to Impairment Charges

On a periodic basis, the Company assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of its real estate assets and other investments may be impaired. A property’s value is impaired only if the estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property are less than the carrying value of the property. In the Company’s estimate of cash flows, it considers factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, the effects of demand, competition and other factors. If the Company is evaluating the potential sale of an asset or development alternatives, the undiscounted future cash flow considerations include the most likely course of action at the balance sheet date based on current plans, intended holding periods and available market information. The Company is required to make subjective assessments as to whether there are impairments in the value of its real estate assets and other investments. These assessments have a direct impact on the Company’s earnings because recording an impairment charge results in an immediate negative adjustment to earnings. For example, in 2016, the Company recorded impairment charges at 20 operating shopping centers aggregating $110.9 million. There can be no assurance that the Company will not take additional charges in the future related to the impairment of its assets. Any future impairment could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations in the period in which the charge is taken.

The Company’s Acquisition Activities May Not Produce the Cash Flows That It Expects and May Be Limited by Competitive Pressures or Other Factors

The Company intends to acquire retail properties only to the extent that suitable acquisitions can be made on advantageous terms. Acquisitions of commercial properties entail risks such as the following:

| • | The Company may be unable to identify, or may have difficulty identifying, acquisition opportunities that fit its investment strategy;

| • | The Company’s estimates on expected occupancy and rental rates may differ from actual conditions;

| • | The Company’s estimates of the costs of any redevelopment or repositioning of acquired properties may prove to be inaccurate;

| • | The Company may be unable to operate successfully in new markets where acquired properties are located due to a lack of market knowledge or understanding of local economies;

| • | The properties may become subject to environmental liabilities that the Company was unaware of at the time the Company acquired the property;

| • | The Company may be unable to successfully integrate new properties into its existing operations or

| • | The Company may have difficulty obtaining financing on acceptable terms or paying the operating expenses and debt service associated with acquired properties prior to sufficient occupancy.

In addition, the Company may not be in a position or have the opportunity in the future to make suitable property acquisitions on advantageous terms due to competition for such properties with others engaged in real estate investment, some of which may have greater financial resources than the Company. The Company’s inability to successfully acquire new properties may affect the Company’s ability to achieve its anticipated return on investment, which could have an adverse effect on its results of operations.

10

Real Estate Property Investments Are Illiquid; Therefore, the Company May Not Be Able to Dispose of Properties When Desired or on Favorable Terms

Real estate investments generally cannot be disposed of quickly. In addition, the Code imposes restrictions, which are not applicable to other types of real estate companies, on the ability of a REIT to dispose of properties. Therefore, the Company may not be able to diversify its portfolio in response to economic or other conditions promptly or on favorable terms, which could cause the Company to incur losses and reduce its cash flows and adversely affect distributions to shareholders.

The Company’s Development, Redevelopment and Construction Activities Could Affect Its Operating Results

The Company intends to continue the selective development, redevelopment and construction of retail properties in accordance with its development underwriting policies as opportunities arise. The Company’s development, redevelopment and construction activities include the following risks:

| • | Construction costs of a project may exceed the Company’s original estimates;

| • | Occupancy rates and rents at a newly completed property may not be sufficient to make the property profitable;

| • | Rental rates per square foot could be less than projected;

| • | Financing may not be available to the Company on favorable terms for development of a property;

| • | The Company may not complete construction and lease-up on schedule, resulting in increased debt service expense and construction costs;

| • | The Company may not be able to obtain, or may experience delays in obtaining, necessary zoning, land use, building, occupancy and other required governmental permits and authorizations and

| • | The Company may abandon development or redevelopment opportunities after expending resources to determine feasibility.

Additionally, the time frame required for development, construction and lease-up of these properties means that the Company may wait several years for a significant cash return. If any of the above events occur, the development of properties may hinder the Company’s growth and have an adverse effect on its results of operations and cash flows. In addition, new development activities, regardless of whether they are ultimately successful, typically require substantial time and attention from management.

If the Company Fails to Qualify as a REIT in Any Taxable Year, It Will Be Subject to U.S. Federal Income Tax as a Regular Corporation and Could Have Significant Tax Liability

The Company intends to operate in a manner that allows it to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, REIT qualification requires that the Company satisfy numerous requirements (some on an annual or quarterly basis) established under highly technical and complex provisions of the Code, for which there are a limited number of judicial or administrative interpretations. The Company’s status as a REIT requires an analysis of various factual matters and circumstances that are not entirely within its control. Accordingly, the Company’s ability to qualify and remain qualified as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes is not certain. Even a technical or inadvertent violation of the REIT requirements could jeopardize the Company’s REIT qualification. Furthermore, Congress or the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) might change the tax laws or regulations and the courts could issue new rulings, in each case potentially having a retroactive effect that could make it more difficult or impossible for the Company to continue to qualify as a REIT. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any tax year, the following would result:

| • | The Company would be taxed as a regular domestic corporation, which, among other things, means that it would be unable to deduct distributions to its shareholders in computing its taxable income and would be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate rates;

| • | Any resulting tax liability could be substantial and would reduce the amount of cash available for distribution to shareholders and could force the Company to liquidate assets or take other actions that could have a detrimental effect on its operating results and

| • | Unless the Company were entitled to relief under applicable statutory provisions, it would be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which the Company lost its qualification, and its cash available for debt service obligations and distribution to its shareholders, therefore, would be reduced for each of the years in which the Company does not qualify as a REIT.

Even if the Company remains qualified as a REIT, it may face other tax liabilities that reduce its cash flow. The Company’s TRS is subject to taxation, and any changes in the laws affecting the Company’s TRS may increase the Company’s tax expenses. The

11

Company may also be subject to certain federal, state and local taxes on its income and property either directly or at the level of its subsidiaries. Any of these taxes would decrease cash available for debt service obligations and distribution to the Company’s shareholders.

Compliance with REIT Requirements May Negatively Affect the Company’s Operating Decisions

To maintain its status as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Company must meet certain requirements on an ongoing basis, including requirements regarding its sources of income, the nature and diversification of its assets, the amounts the Company distributes to its shareholders and the ownership of its shares. The Company may also be required to make distributions to its shareholders when it does not have funds readily available for distribution or at times when the Company’s funds are otherwise needed to fund capital expenditures or debt service obligations.

As a REIT, the Company must distribute at least 90% of its annual net taxable income (excluding net capital gains) to its shareholders. To the extent that the Company satisfies this distribution requirement, but distributes less than 100% of its net taxable income, the Company will be subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on its undistributed taxable income. In addition, the Company will be subject to a 4% non-deductible excise tax if the actual amount paid to its shareholders in a calendar year is less than the minimum amount specified under U.S. federal tax laws. From time to time, the Company may generate taxable income greater than its income for financial reporting purposes, or its net taxable income may be greater than its cash flow available for distribution to its shareholders. If the Company does not have other funds available in these situations, it could be required to borrow funds, sell its securities or a portion of its properties at unfavorable prices or find other sources of funds in order to meet the REIT distribution requirements and avoid corporate income tax and the 4% excise tax.

In addition, the REIT provisions of the Code impose a 100% tax on income from “prohibited transactions.” Prohibited transactions generally include sales of assets, other than foreclosure property, that constitute inventory or other property held for sale to customers in the ordinary course of business. This 100% tax could affect the Company’s decisions to sell property if it believes such sales could be treated as a prohibited transaction. However, the Company would not be subject to this tax if it were to sell assets through its TRS. The Company will also be subject to a 100% tax on certain amounts if the economic arrangements between the Company and its TRS are not comparable to similar arrangements among unrelated parties.

Proposed and potential future proposed reforms of the Code, if enacted, could adversely affect existing REITs. Such proposals could result in REITs having fewer tax advantages, and could adversely affect REIT shareholders. It is impossible for the Company to predict the nature of or extent of any new tax legislation on the real estate industry in general and REITs in particular. In addition, some proposals under consideration may adversely affect our tenants operating results, financial condition and/or future business planning, which could adversely affect the Company and consequently, to our stockholders.

Dividends Paid by REITs Generally Do Not Qualify for Reduced Tax Rates

In general, the maximum U.S. federal income tax rate for dividends paid to individual U.S. shareholders is 20%. Due to its REIT status, the Company’s distributions to individual shareholders generally are not eligible for the reduced rates.

The Company Is Subject to Litigation That Could Adversely Affect Its Results of Operations

The Company is a defendant from time to time in lawsuits and regulatory proceedings relating to its business. Due to the inherent uncertainties of litigation and regulatory proceedings, the Company cannot accurately predict the ultimate outcome of any such litigation or proceedings. An unfavorable outcome could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. Any such litigation could also lead to increased volatility of the trading price of the Company’s common shares. For a further discussion of litigation risks, see “Legal Matters” in Note 9—Commitments and Contingencies to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

The Company’s Real Estate Investments May Contain Environmental Risks That Could Adversely Affect Its Results of Operations

The acquisition of properties may subject the Company to liabilities, including environmental liabilities. The Company’s operating expenses could be higher than anticipated due to the cost of complying with existing or future environmental laws and regulations. In addition, under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, the Company may be considered an owner or operator of real property or to have arranged for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances. As a result, the Company may become liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous substances released on or in its properties. The Company may also be liable for other potential costs that could relate to hazardous or toxic substances (including governmental fines and injuries to persons and property). The Company may incur such liability whether or not it knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances. Such liability could be of substantial magnitude and divert management’s attention from other aspects of the Company’s business and, as a result, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating results and financial condition, as well as its ability to make distributions to shareholders.

12

An Uninsured Loss on the Company’s Properties or a Loss That Exceeds the Limits of the Company’s Insurance Policies Could Subject the Company to Lost Capit al or Revenue on Those Properties

Under the terms and conditions of the leases currently in effect on the Company’s properties, tenants generally are required to indemnify and hold the Company harmless from liabilities resulting from injury to persons, air, water, land or property, on or off the premises, due to activities conducted on the properties, except for claims arising from the negligence or intentional misconduct of the Company or its agents. Additionally, tenants are generally required, at the tenant’s expense, to obtain and keep in full force during the term of the lease liability and full replacement value property damage insurance policies. The Company has obtained comprehensive liability, casualty, flood, terrorism and rental loss insurance policies on its properties. All of these policies may involve substantial deductibles and certain exclusions. Furthermore, there is no assurance that the Company may be able to renew or secure additional insurance policies on commercially reasonable terms or at all. In addition, tenants could fail to properly maintain their insurance policies or be unable to pay the deductibles. Should a loss occur that is uninsured or is in an amount exceeding the combined aggregate limits for the policies noted above, or in the event of a loss that is subject to a substantial deductible under an insurance policy, the Company could lose all or part of its capital invested in, and anticipated revenue from, one or more of the properties, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating results and financial condition, as well as its ability to make distributions to shareholders.

The Company’s Properties Could Be Subject to Damage from Weather-Related Factors

The Company’s properties are open-air shopping centers. Extreme weather conditions may impact the profitability of the Company’s tenants by decreasing traffic at or hindering access to the Company’s properties, which may decrease the amount of rent the Company collects. Furthermore, a number of the Company’s properties are located in areas that are subject to natural disasters. Certain of the Company’s properties are located in California and in other areas with higher risk of earthquakes. In addition, many of the Company’s properties are located in coastal regions, including 14 properties located on the island of Puerto Rico as of February 10, 2017, and would therefore be affected by any future increases in sea levels or in the frequency or severity of hurricanes and tropical storms, whether such increases are caused by global climate changes or other factors.

The Company’s Investments in Real Estate Assets Outside the Continental United States May Be Subject to Additional Risks

Investments and operations outside the continental United States generally are subject to various political and other risks that are different from and in addition to risks inherent in the investment in real estate generally discussed in these risk factors and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. The Company currently has investments in consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures with real estate assets outside the continental United States, including Puerto Rico, and may increase its investment in real estate in jurisdictions outside the continental United States in the future. The Company may not realize the intended benefits of these investments due to the uncertainty of foreign or novel laws and markets including, but not limited to, unexpected changes in the regulatory requirements such as the enactment of laws prohibiting or restricting the Company’s ability to own property, political and economic instability in certain geographic locations, labor disruptions, difficulties in managing international operations, potentially adverse tax consequences, including unexpected or unfavorable changes in tax structure, laws restricting the Company’s ability to transfer profits between jurisdictions or to repatriate profits to the United States, additional accounting and control expenses and the administrative burden associated with complying with laws from a variety of jurisdictions.

In addition, financing may not be available at acceptable rates outside, and equity requirements may be different from the Company’s strategy in, the continental United States. Each of these factors may adversely affect the Company’s ability to achieve anticipated return on investment, which could have an adverse effect on its results of operations.

The Company Could Be Subject to Risks Relating to the Puerto Rican Economy and Government

In recent years, the economy in Puerto Rico has experienced a sustained downturn and the territorial government of Puerto Rico has operated at substantial spending deficits. These economic conditions have adversely affected the territorial government’s current and expected cash flows and resulted in credit downgrades that triggered acceleration clauses in certain outstanding municipal bonds and other bonds. As a result, the territorial government of Puerto Rico and certain utility companies, both of which are obligors on issued bonds, have defaulted on certain of their outstanding debt obligations and announced that they expect to be unable to meet their existing debt obligations. If the territorial government and certain utilities are not able to restructure their debt obligations or obtain forbearance on debt service payments, they may be unable to provide various services (including utilities) relied upon in the operation of businesses in Puerto Rico. Furthermore, inaccessibility of utilities and other government services or providing those services at a significantly higher cost, along with a continued economic downturn and increases in taxes in Puerto Rico, may result in continued or increased migration of residents of Puerto Rico to mainland United States and elsewhere, which could decrease the territory’s tax base, exacerbating the territorial government’s cash flow issues, and decrease the number of consumers in Puerto Rico. In turn, consumers who remain in Puerto Rico could have less disposable income, which may result in declining merchant sales and merchant inability to expand or lease new space or pay rent or pay other expenses for new or existing operations, or result in a general decline in prevailing rental rates. As of December 31, 2016, the Company owned 14 assets in Puerto Rico, aggregating 4.8 million square feet of Company-owned GLA. These assets represent 12.2% of the Company’s total consolidated revenue and 13.6% of the Company’s

13

consolidated property revenue less property expenses (i.e., property net operating income) for the year ended December 31, 2016. Additionally, these assets a ccount for 6.3% of Company-owned GLA, including unconsolidated joint ventures, at December 31, 2016. The persistence or further deterioration of economic conditions in Puerto Rico could have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Compliance with Certain Laws and Governmental Rules and Regulations May Require the Company to Make Unplanned Expenditures That Adversely Affect the Company’s Cash Flows

The Company is required to operate its properties in compliance with certain laws and governmental rules and regulations, including the Americans with Disabilities Act, fire and safety regulations, building codes and other land use regulations, as currently in effect or as they may be enacted or adopted and become applicable to the properties, from time to time. The Company may be required to make substantial capital expenditures to make upgrades at its properties or otherwise comply with those requirements, and these expenditures could have a material adverse effect on its ability to meet its financial obligations and make distributions to shareholders.

The Company May Be Unable to Retain and Attract Key Management Personnel

The Company may be unable to retain and attract talented executives. In the event of the loss of key management personnel to competitors, or upon unexpected death, disability or retirement, the Company may not be able to find replacements with comparable skill, ability and industry expertise. The Company’s operating results and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected until suitable replacements are identified and retained, if at all.

The Company’s Articles of Incorporation Contain Limitations on Acquisitions and Changes in Control

In order to maintain the Company’s status as a REIT, its Articles of Incorporation prohibit any person, except for certain shareholders as set forth in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, from owning more than 5% of the Company’s outstanding common shares. This restriction is likely to discourage third parties from acquiring control of the Company without consent of its Board of Directors even if a change in control were in the best interests of shareholders.

The Company Has Significant Shareholders Who May Exert Influence on the Company as a Result of Their Considerable Beneficial Ownership of the Company’s Common Shares, and Their Interests May Differ from the Interests of Other Shareholders

The Company has shareholders, including Mr. Alexander Otto who is a member of the Board of Directors, who, because of their considerable beneficial ownership of the Company’s common shares, are in a position to exert significant influence over the Company. These shareholders may exert influence with respect to matters that are brought to a vote of the Company’s Board of Directors and/or the holders of the Company’s common shares. Among others, these matters include the election of the Company’s Board of Directors, corporate finance transactions and joint venture activity, merger, acquisition and disposition activity, and amendments to the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Code of Regulations. In the context of major corporate events, the interests of the Company’s significant shareholders may differ from the interests of other shareholders. For example, if a significant shareholder does not support a merger, tender offer, sale of assets or other business combination because the shareholder judges it to be inconsistent with the shareholder’s investment strategy, the Company may be unable to enter into or consummate a transaction that would enable other shareholders to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market prices for common shares. Furthermore, if the Company’s significant shareholders sell substantial amounts of the Company’s common shares in the public market to enhance the shareholders’ liquidity positions, fund alternative investments or for other reasons, the trading price of the Company’s common shares could decline significantly and other shareholders may be unable to sell their common shares at favorable prices. The Company cannot predict or control how the Company’s significant shareholders may use the influence they have as a result of their common share holdings.

Changes in Market Conditions Could Adversely Affect the Market Price of the Company’s Publicly Traded Securities

As with other publicly traded securities, the market price of the Company’s publicly traded securities depends on various market conditions, which may change from time to time. Among the market conditions that may affect the market price of the Company’s publicly traded securities are the following:

| • | The extent of institutional investor interest in the Company;

| • | The reputation of REITs generally and the reputation of REITs with similar portfolios;

| • | The attractiveness of the securities of REITs in comparison to securities issued by other entities (including securities issued by other real estate companies or sovereign governments), bank deposits or other investments;

| • | The Company’s financial condition and performance;

14

| • | Th e market’s perception of the Company’s growth potential and future cash dividends;

| • | An increase in market interest rates, which may lead prospective investors to demand a higher distribution rate in relation to the price paid for the Company’s shares and

| • | General economic and financial market conditions.

The Company May Issue Additional Securities Without Shareholder Approval

The Company can issue preferred shares and common shares without shareholder approval subject to certain limitations in the Company’s Articles of Incorporation. Holders of preferred shares have priority over holders of common shares, and the issuance of additional shares reduces the interest of existing holders in the Company.

The Company Faces Risks Relating to Cybersecurity Attacks and Other Data Breaches

The Company’s business is at risk from and may be impacted by cybersecurity intrusions and other data security breaches. Such attacks could range from individual attempts to gain unauthorized access to information technology systems, to more sophisticated and coordinated security threats such as social engineering. While the Company maintains some of its own critical information technology systems, it also depends on third parties to provide important information technology services relating to several key business functions, such as payroll, human resources, electronic communications and certain finance functions. Although the Company and such third parties employ a number of measures to prevent, detect and mitigate these threats, including password protection, firewalls, backup servers, threat monitoring and periodic penetration testing, there is no guarantee such efforts will be successful in preventing a data breach. Furthermore, the security measures employed by third-party service providers may prove to be ineffective at preventing breaches of their systems. Data breach incidents could compromise the confidential information of the Company’s tenants, employees and third-party vendors and disrupt the Company’s business operations.

It em 2. | PROPERTIES

At December 31, 2016, the Portfolio Properties included 319 shopping centers (including 152 centers owned through joint ventures). At December 31, 2016, the Portfolio Properties also included more than 650 acres of undeveloped land including parcels located adjacent to certain of the shopping centers. At December 31, 2016, the Portfolio Properties aggregated 75.8 million square feet of Company-owned GLA (105.7 million square feet of total GLA) located in 35 states, plus Puerto Rico. These centers are principally in the Southeast and Midwest, with significant concentrations in Florida, Georgia, Ohio and North Carolina, as well as Puerto Rico. The 14 assets owned in Puerto Rico aggregate 4.8 million square feet of Company-owned GLA (5.1 million square feet of total GLA). At December 31, 2016, the Company also owned an interest in two land parcels in Canada.

At December 31, 2016, the average annualized base rent per square foot of Company-owned GLA of the Company’s 167 wholly-owned shopping centers was $15.54. For the 152 shopping centers owned through joint ventures, average annualized base rent per square foot was $14.17 at December 31, 2016. The Company’s average annualized base rent per square foot does not consider tenant expense reimbursements. The Company generally does not enter into significant tenant concessions on a lease-by-lease basis.

The Company’s shopping centers are typically anchored by two or more national tenant anchors (such as Walmart or Target) and are designed to provide a highly-compelling shopping experience and merchandise mix for retail partners and consumers. The tenants of the shopping centers typically cater to the consumer’s desire for value and convenience and offer day-to-day necessities rather than high-priced luxury items. The properties often include discounters, warehouse clubs, specialty grocers, pet supply stores, beauty supply retailers and dollar stores as additional anchors or tenants. As one of the nation’s largest owners and operators of open-air shopping centers (measured by total GLA), the Company has established close relationships with a large number of major national and regional retailers, many of which occupy space in its shopping centers.

Information as to the Company’s 10 largest tenants based on total annualized rental revenues and Company-owned GLA at December 31, 2016, is set forth in Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under the caption Company Fundamentals of this Annual Report on Form 10-K. For additional details related to property encumbrances for the Company’s wholly-owned assets, see “Real Estate and Accumulated Depreciation” (Schedule III) herein. At December 31, 2016, the Company owned an investment in 151 properties owned through unconsolidated joint ventures, which served as collateral for joint venture mortgage debt aggregating approximately $3.0 billion (of which the Company’s proportionate share is $412.9 million) and which is not reflected in the consolidated indebtedness. The Company’s properties range in size from approximately 10,000 square feet to approximately 1,500,000 square feet of total GLA (with 141 properties exceeding 300,000 square

15

feet of total GLA) and 219 of these propert ies include a grocery component. The Company’s properties were 93.3% occupied as of December 31, 2016, and occupancy was between 91.5% and 93.5% over the five-year period ended December 31, 2016.

The high and low sale prices per share of the Company’s common shares, as reported on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) composite tape, and declared dividends per share for the quarterly periods indicated were as follows:

|  | High |  |  | Low |  |  | Dividends |
2016 |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |

Fourth |  |  | 17.46 |  |  |  | 15.25 |  |  |  | 0.1725 |

As of February 10, 2017, there were 6,293 record holders and approximately 27,000 beneficial owners of the Company’s common shares.

The Company’s Board of Directors approved a 2017 dividend policy that it believes will continue to result in sufficient free cash flow, while still adhering to REIT payout requirements. In February 2017, the Company declared its first-quarter 2017 dividend of $0.19 per common share, payable on April 4, 2017, to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 16, 2017.

The decision to declare and pay future dividends on the common shares, as well as the timing, amount and composition of any such future dividends, will be at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and will be subject to the Company’s cash flow from operations, earnings, financial condition, capital and debt service requirements and such other factors as the Board of Directors considers relevant. The Company is required by the Code to distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income. The Company intends to continue to declare quarterly dividends on its common shares; however, there can be no assurances as to the timing and amounts of future dividends.

Distributions to the extent of the Company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary dividend income or capital gain income. Distributions in excess of taxable earnings and profits generally will be treated as non-taxable return of capital. These distributions, to the extent that they do not exceed the shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in its common shares, have the effect of deferring taxation until the sale of the shareholder’s common shares. To the extent that distributions are both in excess of taxable earnings and profits and in excess of the shareholder’s adjusted tax basis in its common shares, the distribution will be treated as capital gain from the sale of common shares. For the taxable year ended December 31, 2016, approximately 54% of the Company’s distributions to shareholders constituted a return of capital and approximately 46% constituted taxable ordinary income dividends.

Certain of the Company’s indentures contain financial and operating covenants including the requirement that the cumulative dividends declared or paid from December 31, 1993, through the end of the current period cannot exceed Funds From Operations (as defined in the agreement) plus an additional $20.0 million for the same period unless required to maintain REIT status.

32

The Company has a dividend reinvestment plan under which shareholders may elect to reinvest their dividends automatically in commo n shares. Under the plan, the Company may, from time to time, elect to purchase common shares in the open market on behalf of participating shareholders or may issue new common shares to such shareholders.

I tem 7. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Company is a self-administered and self-managed Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) in the business of acquiring, owning, developing, redeveloping, expanding, leasing, financing and managing shopping centers. As of December 31, 2016, the Company’s portfolio consisted of 319 shopping centers (including 152 shopping centers owned through joint ventures). These properties consist of 305 shopping centers owned in the United States and 14 in Puerto Rico. At December 31, 2016, the Company owned and managed approximately 106 million total square feet of gross leasable area (“GLA”), through all its properties (wholly-owned and joint venture). The Company also owns more than 650 acres of undeveloped land, including joint venture interests in land. At December 31, 2016, the aggregate occupancy of the Company’s portfolio was 93.3%, and the average annualized base rent per occupied square foot was $15.00.

Current Strategy

In July 2016, the Company named Thomas F. August as president and chief executive officer. The Company’s management, led by Mr. August, has been reevaluating its overall strategy and key objectives. The Company continues to be focused on creating shareholder value through disciplined capital allocation and best-in-class operations that it believes should translate into net asset value growth over time. The Company is also committed to continuing to improve its balance sheet by lowering its risk profile and cost of capital, which it believes will have the effect of enhancing its overall asset portfolio quality. The keys to achieving these objectives include using proceeds from the sale of less strategic shopping centers to repay debt and lower leverage. The Company is also evaluating investment specific alternatives to reduce its exposure in Puerto Rico and recycle any related sale proceeds toward its deleveraging effort. The Company is committed to owning and investing in market dominant, high-quality, open-air retail real estate shopping centers occupied by best-in-class retailers; a strategy it believes will continue to improve portfolio quality, credit quality of cash flows and property-level operating results. The Company focuses on leasing space to retailers that it believes are gaining market share and are most successful in adapting to an omni-channel retailing world.

Existing growth opportunities include rental increases, continued lease-up of the portfolio and selective redevelopment projects. These opportunities include expansion and redevelopment to accommodate high-credit-quality tenants and downsizing or reconfiguring junior anchors to enhance the merchandising mix of shopping centers providing retailers with the preferred footprint and should generate higher blended rental rates. The Company strives to be the preeminent landlord and the first choice for the nation’s leading retailers looking to lease space.

The Company’s core competencies include the following:

| • | Being the preeminent landlord for tenants and joint venture partners;

| • | Strong tenant relationships with the nation’s leading retailers, maintained through a national tenant account program;

| • | An asset management department tasked with constructing the optimal portfolio to achieve long-term growth and value creation after capital expenditures and with identifying asset-level opportunities, risks, competition and trends;

| • | An investment department focused on maximizing sales proceeds from disposition targets, as well as selectively acquiring well-located, quality shopping centers that have leases at below-market rental rates or other cash flow growth or capital appreciation potential where the Company’s financial strength, relationships with retailers and management capabilities can enhance value;

| • | An experienced leasing department dedicated to identifying and taking advantage of an evolving retail landscape and retailer repositioning in order to lease its shopping centers to the highest credit quality retailers possible;

| • | A development/redevelopment department focused on identifying viable projects with attractive returns while adhering to disciplined underwriting standards;

| • | A capital markets department with broad and diverse relationships with capital providers that facilitate access to secured and unsecured, public and private capital;

36

| • | An experienced funds management group dedicated to generating consistent returns and providing quality reporting for institutional partners;

| • | A corporate information technology and accounting group aggressively adopting new technologies to drive efficiency and performance through all operations and

| • | An overall focus on long-term net asset value creation underlying all investment decisions.

Transaction and Capital Markets Highlights

During 2016, the Company completed $1.1 billion of real estate transactions and financing activities, including the following:

| • | Sold 50 shopping centers and land parcels for $1.0 billion (including 17 shopping centers held in joint ventures), or $833.3 million at the Company’s share, and repaid $634.8 million in debt with the net proceeds;

| • | Acquired two shopping centers valued at $0.1 billion and

| • | Paid an annual cash dividend of $0.76 per common share, an increase of 10.1% from 2015.

Operational Accomplishments

The Company continued to improve cash flow and the quality of its portfolio in 2016 as evidenced by the achievement of the following:

| • | Signed leases and renewals for approximately 9 million square feet of GLA, which included 1.8 million square feet of new leasing volume;

| • | Achieved blended leasing spreads of 9.1% for both new leases and renewals at DDR’s share;

| • | Increased the annualized base rent per occupied square foot to $15.00 at December 31, 2016, as compared to $14.48 at December 31, 2015, an increase of 3.6%;

| • | Continued strong aggregate occupancy at 93.3% at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The 2016 occupancy rate reflects the unabsorbed vacancy resulting from 0.5 million square feet of GLA related to The Sports Authority and Golfsmith bankruptcies and

| • | Placed nearly $200 million of development and redevelopment projects in service.

Retail Environment

The Company continues to see strong demand from a broad range of retailers for its space, even as many retailers continue to adapt to an omni-channel retail environment. Value-oriented retailers continue to take market share from conventional and national chain department stores. As a result, while certain of those conventional and national department stores have announced store closures and/or reduced expansion plans, many retailers, specifically those in the value and convenience category, continue to have aggressive store opening plans for 2018 and 2019. Many of the Company’s largest tenants, including TJX Companies, Walmart, PetSmart, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Ross Stores and Ulta, have reported increased same-store sales on an annual basis, and remained well capitalized while outperforming other retail categories on a relative basis. The Company has also been increasing its leasing to specialty grocers, which is an expanding category with strong traffic generation. Approximately 70% of the Company’s properties have a grocery component.

The Company leased approximately 9 million square feet of GLA, including 374 new leases and 847 renewals, for a total of 1,221 leases executed in 2016. The Company continued to execute both new leases and renewals at positive rental spreads. Leasing spreads are a key metric in real estate, representing the percentage increase over rental rates on existing leases versus rental rates on new and renewal leases. At December 31, 2016, the Company had 814 leases expiring in 2017 with an average base rent per square foot of $14.68. For the comparable leases executed in 2016, the Company generated positive leasing spreads on a pro rata basis of 20.6% for new leases and 7.5% for renewals, or 9.1% on a blended basis. The Company’s leasing spread calculation includes only

38

those deals that were executed within one year of the date the prior tenant vacated and, as a result, is a good benchmark to compare the aver age annualized base rent of expiring leases with the comparable executed market rental rates.

Five-Year Blended Lease Spreads

For new leases executed during 2016, the Company expended a weighted-average cost of tenant improvements and lease commissions estimated at $4.77 per rentable square foot over the lease term. The weighted-average cost of tenant improvements and lease commissions ranged from $2.92 to $4.89 over the five years ended December 31, 2016. The Company generally does not expend a significant amount of capital on lease renewals.

Year in Review—2016 Financial Results

For the year ended December 31, 2016, net income attributable to common shareholders increased compared to 2015 primarily due to lower impairment charges recorded in 2016, in addition to the transactional impact of the investment activity completed in 2015 and lower interest expense as a result of the repayment of higher interest rate debt utilizing the proceeds from shopping center sales. The following provides an overview of the Company’s key financial metrics (see Non-GAAP Financial Measures, FFO described later in this section) (in thousands except per share amounts):

The management team, led by Mr. August, has been reevaluating its overall strategy and key objectives. As part of the Company’s strategic plan, the Company and its Board of Directors have identified deleveraging as one of its top priorities to further lower its risk profile and cost of capital. During 2016, Management and Board of Directors elected to increase the volume of asset sales and use proceeds to make accelerated progress on the Company’s deleveraging goals. As a result of the decision to increase asset sales, the Company sold 50 shopping centers and land parcels for $1.0 billion (including 17 shopping centers held in joint ventures), or $833.3 million at the Company’s share, and recorded a related $110.9 million in consolidated impairment charges on certain of those assets as well as other shopping centers that management identified as short-term disposition candidates.

The following discussion of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations provides information that will assist in the understanding of the Company’s financial statements, the changes in certain key items and the factors that accounted for changes in the financial statements, as well as critical accounting policies that affected these financial statements.

39

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The consolidated financial statements of the Company include the accounts of the Company and all subsidiaries where the Company has financial or operating control. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes. In preparing these financial statements, management has used available information, including the Company’s history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming its estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, giving due consideration to materiality. It is possible that the ultimate outcome as anticipated by management in formulating its estimates inherent in these financial statements might not materialize. Application of the critical accounting policies described below involves the exercise of judgment and the use of assumptions as to future uncertainties. Accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may use different estimates that may affect the comparability of the Company’s results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses.

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable

Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis that averages minimum rents over the current term of the leases. Certain of these leases provide for percentage and overage rents based upon the level of sales achieved by the tenant. Percentage and overage rents are recognized after a tenant’s reported sales have exceeded the applicable sales breakpoint set forth in the applicable lease. The leases also typically provide for tenant reimbursements of common area maintenance and other operating expenses and real estate taxes. Accordingly, revenues associated with tenant reimbursements are recognized in the period in which the expenses are incurred based upon the tenant lease provision. Ancillary and other property-related income, which includes the leasing of vacant space to temporary tenants, is recognized in the period earned. Lease termination fees are included in other revenue and recognized and earned upon termination of a tenant’s lease and relinquishment of space in which the Company has no further obligation to the tenant. Management fees are recorded in the period earned. Fee income derived from the Company’s unconsolidated joint venture investments is recognized to the extent attributable to the unaffiliated ownership interest. In 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which will be effective for the Company in 2018. Most significantly for the real estate industry, leasing transactions are not within the scope of the new standard. A majority of the Company’s tenant-related revenue is recognized pursuant to lease agreements. This new standard and its impact on the Company is more fully described in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – New Accounting Standards to Be Adopted,” of the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein.

The Company makes estimates of the collectability of its accounts receivable related to base rents, including straight-line rentals, expense reimbursements and other revenue or income. The Company analyzes accounts receivable, tenant credit worthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. In addition, with respect to tenants in bankruptcy, the Company makes estimates of the expected recovery of pre-petition and post-petition claims in assessing the estimated collectability of the related receivable. The time to resolve these claims may exceed one year. These estimates have a direct impact on the Company’s earnings because a higher bad debt reserve and/or a subsequent write-off in excess of an estimated reserve results in reduced earnings.

Consolidation

All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in real estate joint ventures in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not have financial or operating control, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company’s share of the earnings (or loss) of these joint ventures is included in consolidated net income.

The Company has a number of joint venture arrangements with varying structures. The Company consolidates entities in which it owns less than a 100% equity interest if it is determined that it is a variable interest entity (“VIE”), and the Company has a controlling interest in that VIE or is the controlling general partner. The analysis to identify whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE is based upon which party has (a) the power to direct activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the VIE’s economic performance and (b) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE. In determining whether it has the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the VIE’s performance, the Company is required to assess whether it has an implicit financial responsibility to ensure that a VIE operates as designed. This qualitative assessment has a direct impact on the Company’s financial statements, as the detailed activity of off-balance sheet joint ventures is not presented within the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Real Estate and Long-Lived Assets

Properties are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company is required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of its properties to determine the amount of depreciation to reflect on an annual

40

basis with respect to those properties. These assessments have a direct impact on the Company’s net income. If the Company were to extend the expected useful life of a particular asset, it would be depreciated over more years and result in less depreciation expense and higher annual net income.

On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of real estate assets, including undeveloped land and construction in progress, and intangibles may be impaired. A property’s value is impaired only if management’s estimate of the aggregate future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) to be generated by the property are less than the carrying value of the property. The determination of undiscounted cash flows requires significant estimates by management. In management’s estimate of cash flows, it considers factors such as expected future operating income (loss), trends and prospects, the effects of demand, competition and other factors. If the Company is evaluating the potential sale of an asset or development alternatives, the undiscounted future cash flows analysis is probability-weighted based upon management’s best estimate of the likelihood of the alternative courses of action. Subsequent changes in estimated undiscounted cash flows arising from changes in anticipated actions could affect the determination of whether an impairment exists and whether the effects could have a material impact on the Company’s net income. To the extent an impairment has occurred, the loss will be measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the property over the fair value of the property.

The Company is required to make subjective assessments as to whether there are impairments in the value of its real estate properties and other investments. These assessments have a direct impact on the Company’s net income because recording an impairment charge results in an immediate negative adjustment to net income. If the Company’s estimates of the projected future cash flows, anticipated holding periods or market conditions change, its evaluation of the impairment charges may be different, and such differences could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Plans to hold properties over longer periods decrease the likelihood of recording impairment losses.

The Company allocates the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. In estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities acquired, the Company considers information obtained about each property as a result of its due diligence, marketing and leasing activities. It applies various valuation methods, such as estimated cash flow projections using appropriate discount and capitalization rates, estimates of replacement costs net of depreciation and available market information. If the Company determines that an event has occurred after the initial allocation of the asset or liability that would change the estimated useful life of the asset, the Company will reassess the depreciation and amortization of the asset. The Company is required to make subjective estimates in connection with these valuations and allocations.

The Company generally considers assets to be held for sale when the transaction has been approved by the appropriate level of management and there are no known significant contingencies relating to the sale such that the sale of the property within one year is considered probable. This generally occurs when a sales contract is executed with no contingencies and the prospective buyer has significant funds at risk to ensure performance.

Notes Receivable

Notes receivable include certain loans that are held for investment and are generally collateralized by real estate-related investments that may be subordinate to other senior loans. Loans receivable are recorded at stated principal amounts or at initial investment plus accretable yield for loans purchased at a discount. The related discounts on mortgages and other loans purchased are accreted over the life of the related loan receivable. The Company defers loan origination and commitment fees, net of origination costs, and amortizes them over the term of the related loan. The Company evaluates the collectability of both principal and interest on each loan based on an assessment of the underlying collateral value to determine whether it is impaired, and not by the use of internal risk ratings. A loan loss reserve is recorded when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms, and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. When a loan is considered to be impaired, the amount of loss is calculated by comparing the recorded investment to the value of the underlying collateral. As the underlying collateral for a majority of the notes receivable is real estate-related investments, the same valuation techniques are used to value the collateral as those used to determine the fair value of real estate investments for impairment purposes. Given the small number of loans outstanding, the Company does not provide for an additional allowance for loan losses based on the grouping of loans, as the Company believes the characteristics of the loans are not sufficiently similar to allow an evaluation of these loans as a group. As such, all of the Company’s loans are evaluated individually for this purpose. Interest income on performing loans is accrued as earned. A loan is placed on non-accrual status when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. Interest income on non-performing loans is generally recognized on a cash basis. Recognition of interest income on an accrual basis on non-performing loans is resumed when it is probable that the Company will be able to collect amounts due according to the contractual terms.

41

Measurement of Fair Value—Real Estate and Unconsolidated Joint Venture Investme nts

The Company is required to assess the value of certain impaired consolidated and unconsolidated joint venture investments as well as the underlying collateral for certain financing notes receivable. The fair value of real estate investments used in the Company’s impairment calculations is estimated based on the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between marketplace participants at the measurement date. Investments without a public market are valued based on assumptions made and valuation techniques used by the Company. The availability of observable transaction data and inputs can make it more difficult and/or subjective to determine the fair value of such investments. As a result, amounts ultimately realized by the Company from investments sold may differ from the fair values presented, and the differences could be material.

The valuation of impaired real estate assets, investments and real estate collateral is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including the income capitalization approach or discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each asset considering prevailing market capitalization rates, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, actual sales negotiations, bona fide purchase offers received from third parties and/or consideration of the amount that currently would be required to replace the asset, as adjusted for obsolescence. In general, the Company considers multiple valuation techniques when measuring fair value of an investment. However, in certain circumstances, a single valuation technique may be appropriate.

For operational real estate assets, the significant assumptions include the capitalization rate used in the income capitalization valuation as well as the projected property net operating income and expected hold period. For projects under development or not at stabilization, the significant assumptions include the discount rate, the timing for the construction completion and project stabilization and the exit capitalization rate. For investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, the Company also considers the valuation of any underlying joint venture debt. Valuation of real estate assets is calculated based on market conditions and assumptions made by management at the measurement date, which may differ materially from actual results if market conditions or the underlying assumptions change.

Investments in Joint Ventures—Impairment Assessment

The Company has a number of off-balance sheet joint ventures with varying structures. On a periodic basis, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures may be impaired. An investment’s value is impaired only if management’s estimate of the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment and such loss is deemed to be other than temporary. To the extent an impairment has occurred, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the estimated fair value of the investment.

Deferred Tax Assets and Tax Liabilities

The Company accounts for income taxes related to its taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent it believes it is more likely than not that these assets will be realized. In making such determinations, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including forecasts of future taxable income, the reversal of other existing temporary differences, available net operating loss carryforwards, tax planning strategies and recent results of operations. Several of these considerations require assumptions and significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income that are consistent with the plans and estimates that the Company is utilizing to manage its business. Based on this assessment, management must evaluate the need for, and amount of, valuation allowances against the Company’s deferred tax assets. The Company would record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets when it has determined that an uncertainty exists regarding their realization, which would increase the provision for income taxes. To the extent facts and circumstances change in the future, adjustments to the valuation allowances may be required. In the event the Company were to determine that it would be able to realize the deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, the Company would adjust the valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes. The Company makes certain estimates in the determination of the use of valuation reserves recorded for deferred tax assets. These estimates could have a direct impact on the Company’s earnings, as a difference in the tax provision would impact the Company’s earnings.

The Company has made estimates in assessing the impact of the uncertainty of income taxes. Accounting standards prescribe a recognition threshold and measurement attribute criteria for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The standards also provide guidance on de-recognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. These estimates have a direct impact on the Company’s net income because higher tax expense will result in reduced earnings.

Stock-Based Employee Compensation

Stock-based compensation requires all stock-based payments to employees, including grants of stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair value. The fair value is estimated at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with weighted-average assumptions for the activity under stock plans. Option pricing model input assumptions, such as expected volatility, expected term and risk-free interest rate, all affect the fair value estimate. Further, the forfeiture rate has an impact on the amount of aggregate compensation. These assumptions are subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to develop.

When estimating fair value, some of the assumptions will be based on or determined from external data, and other assumptions may be derived from experience with stock-based payment arrangements. The appropriate weight to place on experience is a matter of judgment, based on relevant facts and circumstances.

COMPARISON OF 2016, 2015 AND 2014 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the comparison of 2016 to 2015, shopping center properties owned as of January 1, 2015, and for the comparison of 2015 to 2014, shopping center properties owned as of January 1, 2014, are referred to herein as the “Comparable Portfolio Properties.” These exclude properties under development or redevelopment and those sold by the Company. The Company did not have any asset sales that qualified for discontinued operations presentation in 2016 or 2015. The Company’s 2014 consolidated financial statements present asset sales as discontinued operations.

Average annualized base rent per occupied square foot | $ | 14.17 |  |  | $ | 13.95 |  |  | $ | 13.38 |

The Comparable Portfolio Properties’ aggregate occupancy rate was 93.7% at December 31, 2016, as compared to 94.3% and 93.6% at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Comparable Portfolio Properties average annualized base rent per occupied square foot was $15.67, $14.70 and $14.01, as of December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Comparison of 2016 to 2015

The increase in the average annualized base rent per occupied square foot primarily was due to the change in the mix of the Company’s portfolio, as well as continued leasing of the existing portfolio at positive rental spreads.

(B) | The decrease in recoveries from tenants primarily was driven by the net impact of disposition activity. Recoveries from tenants for the Comparable Portfolio Properties were approximately 95.7%, 95.0% and 92.1% of reimbursable operating expenses and real estate taxes for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The overall increased percentage of recoveries from tenants over the three-year period primarily was attributable to the disposition of assets with lower recovery rates.

Comparison of 2016 to 2015

The revenues classified as management, development and other fee income are generated from the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures. The Company recorded additional asset management fee income of $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2016 related to an amendment of the provisions in the management agreement for one joint venture. Changes in the number of assets under management or the joint venture fee structure could impact the amount of revenue recorded in future periods. The Company’s property management agreements contain cancellation provisions. Additionally, certain of the Company’s joint venture partners may dispose of shopping centers under DDR’s management that would impact the amount of fee income recorded in future periods.

Comparison of 2015 to 2014

The decrease in ancillary and other property income primarily was due to the termination of the Company’s operating agreement with certain entertainment operations at a property under redevelopment in the third quarter of 2014. After considering the related operating expenses associated with the operating agreement, the impact of the termination on the Company’s results was immaterial.

|  | $ | (13.4 | ) |  | $ | (3.2 | ) |  | $ | (12.5 | )

Depreciation expense for development or redevelopment properties was greater in 2015 primarily as of result of accelerated depreciation charges related to changes in the useful lives of certain assets. This expense was offset by assets placed in service in 2016.

Comparison of 2015 to 2014

|  | 2015 vs. 2014 $ Change |
|  | Operating and Maintenance |  |  | Real Estate Taxes |  |  | Depreciation and Amortization |

|  | $ | 2.3 |  |  | $ | 10.3 |  |  | $ | (0.8 | )

The decrease in depreciation expense for the Comparable Portfolio Properties was primarily attributable to assets becoming fully amortized in 2014. The decrease in development or redevelopment properties was attributable to accelerated depreciation charges related to changes in the estimated useful lives of certain assets in 2014.

(B) | The Company recorded impairment charges during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, primarily related to shopping center assets and land marketed for sale. The impairment charges recorded in 2016 related to 20 operating shopping centers as a result of a decision by senior management and the Board of Directors to increase the volume of asset sales over a 12- to 18-month period beyond the level contemplated in 2015 to achieve new deleveraging goals. The impairment charges in 2015 related to 25 operating shopping centers and five parcels of land previously held for future development. Changes in (1) an asset’s expected future undiscounted cash flows due to changes in market conditions, (2) various courses of action that may occur or (3) holding periods each could result in the recognition of additional impairment charges. Impairment charges reflected in discontinued operations for the year ended December 31, 2014, were $8.9 million. These impairments are more fully described in Note 12, “Impairment Charges and Impairment of Joint Venture Investments,” of the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein.

45

(C) | General and administr ative expenses for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, were approximately 5.0%, 4.7% and 5.4% of total revenues, respectively, including total revenues of unconsolidated joint ventures, managed properties and discontinued operations (in 2014). The decrease in expense in 2015 compared to 2014 primarily was due to the change in the Company’s executive structure, as well as lower travel, professional fees and advertising expenses. The Company continues to expense certain internal leasing salari es, legal salaries and related expenses associated with leasing and re-leasing of existing space. Upon adoption of the leasing standard in 2019, the Company expects that certain general and administrative expenses that are capitalized in 2016 may be requi red to be expensed. Included in general and administrative expenses in 2014 is a $5.4 million charge related to the separation of the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer, the terms of which were pursuant to a separation agreement executed on December 31, 2014.

(A) | The change in the amount of interest income recognized in each of the three years primarily is due to the change in the composition of the preferred equity investments in the unconsolidated joint ventures with The Blackstone Group L.P. (“Blackstone”) (see Strategic Transaction Activity). The Company had a preferred equity investment of $386.1 million plus $7.2 million of accrued interest at December 31, 2016, with an annual interest rate of 8.5% due from its two joint ventures with Blackstone. Blackstone may sell certain assets owned through the joint venture and use the proceeds to repay a portion of the preferred equity. Any repayment of this preferred interest would impact the amount of interest income recorded by the Company in future periods (see Strategic Transaction Activity). The weighted-average loan receivable outstanding and weighted-average interest rate, including loans to affiliates, are as follows:

|  | For the Year Ended December 31, |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2014 |
Weighted-average loan receivable outstanding (in millions) |  | $ | 439.8 |  |  | $ | 351.4 |  |  | $ | 181.0 |
Weighted-average interest rate |  |  | 8.5 | % |  |  | 8.5 | % |  |  | 9.1 | %

(B) | The weighted-average debt outstanding, including amounts allocated to discontinued operations (in 2014), and related weighted-average interest rate are as follows:

|  | For the Year Ended December 31, |
|  | 2016 |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2014 |
Weighted-average debt outstanding (in billions) |  | $ | 4.9 |  |  | $ | 5.2 |  |  | $ | 5.3 |
Weighted-average interest rate |  |  | 4.5 | % |  |  | 4.8 | % |  |  | 5.0 | %

The weighted-average interest rate (based on contractual rates and excluding senior convertible debt accretion, fair market value of adjustments and debt issuance costs) at December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, was 4.5%, 4.6% and 4.8%, respectively.

Interest costs capitalized in conjunction with development and redevelopment projects and unconsolidated development and redevelopment joint venture interests were $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to $6.7 million and $8.7 million for the comparable periods in 2015 and 2014. The decrease in the amount of interest costs capitalized is a result of a change in the mix of active development projects year over year.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, $9.9 million of interest expense was classified as discontinued operations. As a result, when this amount is appropriately considered in the year-over-year comparison, the change in interest expense was immaterial.

Transaction and other income (expense), net

In 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Company incurred $0.3 million, $1.0 million and $3.0 million, respectively, in transaction costs related to the acquisition of shopping centers. In 2014, the Company recorded a charge of $7.3 million, as a result of net termination fees paid to major tenants in connection with two redevelopments. The 2014 expenses were partially offset by a gain recorded on the sale of securities of $1.4 million. Upon adoption of the new business combination standard, the Company anticipates that the majority of the transaction costs incurred related to the acquisition of shopping centers will be capitalized to real estate assets.

Litigation-related expenses and notes receivable reserve

Litigation-related expenses in 2014 include costs incurred by the Company to defend the litigation arising from joint venture assets that were owned through the Company’s investments with the Coventry II Fund. This litigation was settled in 2015. In 2014, the Company recorded a loan loss reserve based upon the estimated collateral value of a non-performing note receivable. In the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company sold the note receivable associated with this loan loss reserve. As a result, the related aggregate loan loss reserve of $4.8 million was reversed, and income of $2.9 million was recognized and classified as Gain on Disposition of Real Estate in the consolidated statement of operations.

(A) | The changes in equity in net income were due to the following:

Comparison of 2016 to 2015

The increase in equity in net income of joint ventures for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to the prior year, primarily was a result of the sale of 11 assets by one unconsolidated joint venture in 2016, of which the Company’s share of the gain was $13.5 million, as well as higher impairment charges in 2015. Joint venture property sales could significantly impact the amount of income or loss recognized in future periods.

Comparison of 2015 to 2014

The decrease in equity in net income of joint ventures for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to the prior year, primarily was a result of higher impairment charges in 2015 as well as the sale of joint venture investments in 2014 and 2015 and the related transactional impact. This decrease was partially offset by the impact of the Company’s investments in joint ventures formed with Blackstone in the fourth quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2015. In addition, in 2014, the Company recorded a gain of $83.7 million from its sale of its 50% interest in assets in Brazil.

(B) | The other than temporary impairment charges of the joint venture investments are more fully described in Note 12, “Impairment Charges and Impairment of Joint Venture Investments,” of the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein.

47

(C) | The G ain on S ale and C hange in C ontrol of I nterests primarily is driven by the Company’s strategy to recycle assets, including those held through unconsolidated joint venture investments. In 2016, the Company divested its interest in an approximately 25%-owned joint venture. The Company acquired its partners’ interests in nine shopping centers (one in 2015 and eight in 2014). As these properties were previously unconsolidated, the Company accounted for these transactions as step acquisitions and recorded an aggregate net gain on change in control. In 2015, t hese gains were off set by a loss on sale associated with the Company’s disposition of its 50% investment in a property management company to its joint venture partner. In addition, in 2014, the Company recorded a gain from the sale of its 50% interest in assets in Brazil. This gain includes the release of $19.7 million of foreign currency translation from Accumulated Comprehensive Income.

(D) | The increase in tax expense in 2015 primarily is a result of a tax restructuring related to the Company’s assets in Puerto Rico, in accordance with temporary legislation of the Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code. This election permitted the Company to step-up its tax basis in the 14 Puerto Rican assets and reduce its effective tax rate from 39% to a 10% withholding tax related to those assets.

Discontinued Operations (in thousands)

In 2014, the Company sold 35 properties and recorded loss from discontinued operations of $6.6 million and gain on disposition of real estate of $96.0 million. Included in the reported loss for the year ended December 31, 2014, was $8.9 million of impairment charges related to assets classified as discontinued operations. The asset sales in 2016 and 2015 do not represent a strategic shift in the Company’s business plan and therefore, are not accounted for as discontinued operations.

(A) | For 2016 and 2015, the gain on disposition of real estate is more fully described in Note 13, “Disposition of Real Estate and Real Estate Investments and Discontinued Operations,” of the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein. For 2014, the amount is generally attributable to the sale of land. The sales of land did not meet the criteria for discontinued operations because the land did not have any significant operations prior to disposition.

(B) | Change in non-controlling interests for the year ended December 31, 2014, primarily was the result of the net gain/loss allocated to the minority partners related to the sale of undeveloped land in Russia and Canada and the sale of a shopping center asset in 2014. In 2014, the Company divested all of its interests in assets outside North America.

(C) | For the year ended December 31, 2016, the increase in net income attributable to DDR compared to 2015 primarily was due to lower impairment charges recorded in 2016 triggered by an acceleration of the Company’s asset disposition plans, in addition to the transactional impact of the investment activity completed in 2015 and lower interest expense as a result of the repayment of higher interest rate debt through the use of proceeds from asset sales in 2015. For the year ended December 31, 2015, the decrease in net income attributable to DDR compared to 2014 primarily was due to a greater amount of impairment charges recorded in 2015.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Definition and Basis of Presentation

The Company believes that Funds from Operations (“FFO”) and Operating FFO, both non-GAAP financial measures, provide additional and useful means to assess the financial performance of REITs. FFO and Operating FFO are frequently used by the real estate industry, as well as securities analysts, investors and other interested parties, to evaluate the performance of REITs.

FFO excludes GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and real estate investments, which assume that the value of real estate assets diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions, and many companies use different depreciable lives and methods. Because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization unique to real estate and gains and losses from depreciable property dispositions, it can provide a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, interest costs

48

and acquisition, disposition and development activities. This provides a perspective of the Company’s financial performance not immediately apparent from net income determined in accordance with GAAP.

FFO is generally defined and calculated by the Company as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), adjusted to exclude (i) preferred share dividends, (ii) gains and losses from disposition of depreciable real estate property and related investments, which are presented net of taxes, (iii) impairment charges on depreciable real estate property and related investments and (iv) certain non-cash items. These non-cash items principally include real property depreciation and amortization of intangibles, equity income (loss) from joint ventures and equity income (loss) from non-controlling interests and adding the Company’s proportionate share of FFO from its unconsolidated joint ventures and non-controlling interests, determined on a consistent basis. The Company’s calculation of FFO is consistent with the definition of FFO provided by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”).

The Company believes that certain gains and charges recorded in its operating results are not comparable or reflective of its core operating performance. As a result, the Company also computes Operating FFO and discusses it with the users of its financial statements, in addition to other measures such as net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP and FFO. Operating FFO is generally defined and calculated by the Company as FFO excluding certain charges and gains that management believes are not comparable and indicative of the results of the Company’s operating real estate portfolio. Such adjustments include gains on the sale of and/or change in control of interests, gains/losses on the sale of non-depreciable real estate, impairments of non-depreciable real estate, gains/losses on the early extinguishment of debt, transaction costs and other restructuring type costs. The disclosure of these charges and gains is regularly requested by users of the Company’s financial statements. The adjustment for these charges and gains may not be comparable to how other REITs or real estate companies calculate their results of operations, and the Company’s calculation of Operating FFO differs from NAREIT’s definition of FFO. Additionally, the Company provides no assurances that these charges and gains are non-recurring. These charges and gains could be reasonably expected to recur in future results of operations.

These measures of performance are used by the Company for several business purposes and by other REITs. The Company uses FFO and/or Operating FFO in part (i) as a disclosure to improve the understanding of the Company’s operating results among the investing public, (ii) as a measure of a real estate asset’s performance, (iii) to influence acquisition, disposition and capital investment strategies and (iv) to compare the Company’s performance to that of other publicly traded shopping center REITs.

For the reasons described above, management believes that FFO and Operating FFO provide the Company and investors with an important indicator of the Company’s operating performance. They provide recognized measures of performance other than GAAP net income, which may include non-cash items (often significant). Other real estate companies may calculate FFO and Operating FFO in a different manner.

Management recognizes the limitations of FFO and Operating FFO when compared to GAAP’s net income. FFO and Operating FFO do not represent amounts available for dividends, capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations or other commitments and uncertainties. Management does not use FFO or Operating FFO as an indicator of the Company’s cash obligations and funding requirements for future commitments, acquisitions or development activities. Neither FFO nor Operating FFO represents cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, and neither is necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. Neither FFO nor Operating FFO should be considered an alternative to net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. FFO and Operating FFO are simply used as additional indicators of the Company’s operating performance. The Company believes that to further understand its performance, FFO and Operating FFO should be compared with the Company’s reported net income (loss) and considered in addition to cash flows determined in accordance with GAAP, as presented in its consolidated financial statements. Reconciliations of these measures to their most directly comparable GAAP measure of net income (loss) have been provided below.

FFO and Operating FFO attributable to common shareholders were as follows (in millions):

| For the Year Ended December 31, |  |  | 2016 vs. 2015 |  |  | 2015 vs. 2014 |

Comparison of 2016 to 2015

The increase in FFO for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to 2015, primarily was due to lower impairment charges of non-depreciable assets recorded in 2016 than the prior year, the transactional impact of the investment activity completed in 2015 and lower interest expense as a result of the repayment of higher interest rate debt through the use of proceeds from asset

49

sales. The increase in Operating FFO for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to 2015, primarily was due to the same factors impacting FFO.

Comparison of 2015 to 2014

The decrease in FFO for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to 2014, primarily was due to an increase in impairment charges of non-depreciable assets, offset by the 2015 growth. The increase in Operating FFO for the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to 2014, primarily was due to the impact of shopping center acquisitions as well as organic growth and continued lease up within the portfolio.

The Company’s reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders to FFO attributable to common shareholders and Operating FFO attributable to common shareholders is as follows (in millions). The Company provides no assurances that these charges and gains are non-recurring. These charges and gains could reasonably be expected to recur in future results of operations.

LIQUIDITY, CAPITAL RESOURCES AND FINANCING ACTIVITIES

The Company periodically evaluates opportunities to issue and sell additional debt or equity securities, obtain credit facilities from lenders, or repurchase or refinance long-term debt for strategic reasons or to further strengthen the financial position of the Company. In 2016, the Company strengthened its balance sheet by lowering leverage through the utilization of net proceeds from assets sales to retire both secured and unsecured borrowings.

The Company’s consolidated and unconsolidated debt obligations generally require monthly or semi-annual payments of principal and/or interest over the term of the obligation. While the Company currently believes it has several viable sources to obtain capital and fund its business, including capacity under its facilities described below, no assurance can be provided that these obligations will be refinanced or repaid as currently anticipated.

The Company has historically accessed capital sources through both the public and private markets. Acquisitions, developments and redevelopments are generally financed through cash provided from operating activities, Revolving Credit Facilities, mortgages assumed, secured debt, unsecured debt, common and preferred equity offerings, joint venture capital and asset sales. Total consolidated debt outstanding was $4.5 billion at December 31, 2016, compared to $5.1 billion and $5.2 billion at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Revolving Credit Facilities

The Company maintains an unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of financial institutions, arranged by J.P. Morgan Securities, LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (the “Unsecured Credit Facility”). The Unsecured Credit Facility provides for borrowings of up to $750 million and includes an accordion feature for expansion of availability up to $1.25 billion upon the Company’s request, provided that new or existing lenders agree to the existing terms of the facility and increase their commitment level. The Company also maintains an unsecured revolving credit facility with PNC Bank, National Association, which provides for borrowings of up to $50 million (together with the Unsecured Credit Facility, the “Revolving Credit Facilities”). The Company’s borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facilities bear interest at variable rates at the Company’s election, based on either LIBOR, plus a specified spread (1.0% at December 31, 2016) or the prime rate, as defined in the respective facility. The specified spreads vary depending on the Company’s long-term senior unsecured debt rating from Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”).

The Revolving Credit Facilities and the indentures under which the Company’s senior and subordinated unsecured indebtedness are, or may be, issued contain certain financial and operating covenants including, among other things, leverage ratios and debt service coverage and fixed charge coverage ratios, as well as limitations on the Company’s ability to incur secured and unsecured indebtedness, sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and engage in mergers and certain acquisitions. These credit facilities and indentures also contain customary default provisions including the failure to make timely payments of principal and interest payable thereunder, the failure to comply with the Company’s financial and operating covenants, the occurrence of a material adverse effect on the Company and the failure of the Company or its majority-owned subsidiaries (i.e., entities in which the Company has a greater than 50% interest) to pay, when due, certain indebtedness in excess of certain thresholds beyond applicable grace and cure periods. In the event the Company’s lenders or note holders declare a default, as defined in the applicable agreements governing the debt, the Company may be unable to obtain further funding, and/or an acceleration of any outstanding borrowings may occur. As of December 31, 2016, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants in the agreements governing its debt. Although the Company intends to operate in compliance with these covenants, if the Company were to violate these covenants, the Company may be subject to higher finance costs and fees or accelerated maturities. The Company believes it will continue to be able to operate in compliance with these covenants in 2017 and beyond.

Certain of the Company’s credit facilities and indentures permit the acceleration of the maturity of the underlying debt in the event certain other debt of the Company has been accelerated. Furthermore, a default under a loan by the Company or its affiliates, a foreclosure on a mortgaged property owned by the Company or its affiliates or the inability to refinance existing indebtedness may

51

have a negative impact on the Company’s financial condition, cash flows and results of operations. These facts, and an inability to predict future economic conditions, have led the Company to continue to lower its balance sheet risk and increas e financial flexibility.

The Company expects to fund its obligations from available cash, current operations and utilization of its Revolving Credit Facilities; however, the Company may issue long-term debt and/or equity securities in lieu of, or in addition to, borrowing under its Revolving Credit Facilities. The following information summarizes the availability of the Revolving Credit Facilities at December 31, 2016 (in millions):

Cash and Cash Equivalents | $ | 30.4 |
Revolving Credit Facilities | $ | 800.0 |
Less: |  |  |
Amount outstanding |  | — |
Letters of credit |  | (1.1 | )
Borrowing capacity available | $ | 798.9 |

The Company intends to continue to maintain a long-term financing strategy with limited reliance on short-term debt. The Company believes its Revolving Credit Facilities are sufficient for its liquidity strategy and longer-term capital structure needs. Part of the Company’s overall strategy includes scheduling future debt maturities in a balanced manner, including incorporating a healthy level of conservatism regarding possible future market conditions.

Equity

The Company has a $250 million continuous equity program. At February 10, 2017, the Company had $250.0 million available for the future issuance of common shares under that program.

Consolidated Mortgage Indebtedness

The following depicts the Company’s consolidated debt maturities at December 31, 2016 through February 2018, after deducting debt that has refinancing options, and compares that amount to the availability of the Revolving Credit Facilities (in millions):

Senior Notes | $ | 300.0 |
Unsecured Term Loan(A) |  | 400.0 |
Secured Term Loan(A) |  | 200.0 |
Mortgage Indebtedness(A) |  | 188.7 |
Total 2017 debt maturities |  | 1,088.7 |
January and February 2018 debt maturities |  | 27.6 |
|  | 1,116.3 |
Less loans with extension options(A) |  | (626.2 | )
Less repayments made through February 10, 2017 |  | (33.2 | )
| $ | 456.9 |
Borrowing capacity available on Revolving Credit Facilities | $ | 798.9 |

| (A) | Debt maturity is expected to be extended at the Company’s option in accordance with the loan agreement.

The Company believes that the combination of available cash, cash flows expected to be generated from asset sales and operations and borrowings from Revolving Credit Facilities will be sufficient to satisfy the Company’s current and planned capital spending requirements and debt repayments for the next twelve months. No assurance can be provided that these obligations will be refinanced or repaid as currently anticipated. These sources of funds could be affected by various risks and uncertainties (see Item 1A. Risk Factors).

Management believes the scheduled debt maturities in 2017 and in future years are manageable. The Company continually evaluates its debt maturities and, based on management’s assessment, believes it has viable financing and refinancing alternatives. The Company continues to evaluate its debt maturities through executing a strategy to extend debt duration, lower leverage, increase liquidity and improve the Company’s credit ratings with the focus of lowering the Company's balance sheet risk and cost of capital.

Unconsolidated Joint Ventures Mortgage Indebtedness – as of December 31, 2016

The Company’s joint venture, DDR Domestic Retail Fund I, has $899.2 million of debt maturing in 2017 and 2018, of which the Company’s proportionate share is $179.8 million. The joint venture expects to refinance these obligations, which could require the Company to fund additional capital. The Company’s joint venture, DDRTC Core Retail Fund, LLC, has $142.1 million of debt maturing in March 2017, of which the Company’s proportionate share is $21.3 million. The joint venture repaid $47.1 million of this maturity in January 2017 and expects to repay the remaining debt maturity in March 2017 through a capital call from the partners, of which the Company’s total funding is expected to be approximately $14 million. The Company has additional unconsolidated joint venture debt maturities aggregating $663.8 million of debt maturing in 2017, of which the Company’s proportionate share is $49.6 million. It is expected that the joint ventures will fund these obligations from refinancing opportunities, including extension options or possible asset sales. No assurance can be provided that these obligations will be refinanced or repaid as currently anticipated.

Cash Flow Activity

The Company’s core business of leasing space to well-capitalized retailers continues to generate consistent and predictable cash flow after expenses, interest payments and preferred share dividends. This capital is available for use at the Company’s discretion for investment, debt repayment and the payment of dividends on common shares.

The Company’s cash flow activities are summarized as follows (in thousands):

| For the Year Ended December 31, |
| 2016 |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2014 |
Cash flow provided by operating activities | $ | 462,915 |  |  | $ | 434,587 |  |  | $ | 420,282 |
Cash flow provided by (used for) by investing activities |  | 472,090 |  |  |  | (54,488 | ) |  |  | 153,196 |
Cash flow used for financing activities |  | (926,992 | ) |  |  | (378,772 | ) |  |  | (638,635 | )

Changes in cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2016, compared to the prior year are described as follows:

Operating Activities: Cash provided by operating activities increased $28.3 million primarily due to the following:

| • | Reduced interest payments,

| • | Payment of $16.8 million due to Puerto Rico tax restructuring costs in 2015 and

| • | Assets acquired along with the continued growth in operating performance of the Company’s core assets, offset by asset dispositions.

Investing Activities: Cash provided by investing activities increased $526.6 million primarily due to the following:

| • | Additional proceeds of $269.8 million from disposition of real estate in 2016,

| • | Lower real estate acquisitions and development spending of $172.8 million in 2016 and

| • | Issuance of a note receivable of $82.6 million in 2015.

Financing Activities: Cash used for financing activities increased $548.2 million primarily due to the following:

| • | Net increase of $536.2 million in debt repayment and

| • | Increase of $28.6 million in dividend payments.

Dividend Distribution

The Company satisfied its REIT requirement of distributing at least 90% of ordinary taxable income with declared common and preferred share cash dividends of $300.5 million in 2016, as compared to $272.4 million of cash dividends paid in 2015 and $246.9 million of cash dividends paid in 2014. Because actual distributions were greater than 100% of taxable income, federal income taxes were not incurred by the Company in 2016.

The Company declared cash dividends of $0.76 per common share in 2016. In February 2017, the Company declared its first quarter 2017 dividend of $0.19 per common share payable on April 4, 2017, to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 16, 2017. The Board of Directors of the Company expects to continue to monitor the 2017 dividend policy and provide for adjustments as determined to be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to maximize the Company’s free cash flow while still adhering to REIT payout requirements.

SOURCES AND USES OF CAPITAL

2017 Strategic Transaction Activity

In January 2017, the Company acquired an asset in Chicago, Illinois, aggregating 0.1 million square feet of Company-owned GLA, for a gross purchase price of $81.0 million.

2016 Strategic Transaction Activity

The Company followed its portfolio management strategy to lower leverage by utilizing proceeds from asset sales to repay outstanding debt and to acquire high-quality retail real estate occupied by best-in-class retailers. Transactions are completed both on balance sheet and through off-balance sheet joint venture arrangements with top tier, well capitalized partners.

Acquisitions

In 2016, the Company acquired two shopping centers (Phoenix, Arizona, and Portland, Oregon). These assets aggregated 0.6 million square feet of Company-owned GLA and were acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $146.8 million.

Dispositions

As part of the Company’s deleveraging strategy, the Company has been marketing less strategic assets for sale. The disposition of certain assets could result in a loss recorded in future periods. The Company evaluates all potential sale opportunities taking into account the long-term growth prospects of assets being sold, the use of proceeds and the impact to the Company’s balance sheet, in addition to the impact on operating results.

In 2016, the Company sold 33 shopping center properties, aggregating 7.3 million square feet, and land parcels, for an aggregate sales price of $797.0 million. The Company recorded a net gain of $73.4 million. The Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures sold 17 shopping center properties, aggregating 1.4 million square feet, for an aggregate sales price of $214.6 million, of which the Company’s proportionate share of the gain was $13.8 million.

Transactions with Blackstone

The Company has invested in several joint venture arrangements with Blackstone. Each of the joint ventures is structured with Blackstone-affiliated entities owning 95% of the common equity and a consolidated affiliate of DDR owning the remaining 5%. DDR also invested preferred equity in each joint venture. The transactions completed are as follows:

Investments at December 31, 2016

| • | BRE DDR Retail Holdings III In 2014, a newly formed joint venture between a consolidated affiliate of the Company and Blackstone acquired 70 shopping centers, aggregating 11.4 million square feet of owned-GLA, in a transaction valued at $1.93 billion. DDR invested $19.6 million in common equity and $300 million in preferred equity in the joint venture with a fixed preferred dividend rate of 8.5% per annum. The joint venture was funded through assumed debt of $436.8 million and new financing of $800.0 million. DDR provides customary leasing and management services and has the right of first offer to acquire 10 of the assets (“ROFO Assets”) under specified conditions consistent with past transactions with Blackstone. In 2016 and 2015, the joint venture sold six assets and 14 assets, respectively, at an aggregate sales price of $44.1 million and $213.0 million, respectively. At December 31, 2016, there are 50 assets remaining in this joint venture including the 10 ROFO Assets.

Blackstone is evaluating its strategy with respect to the assets held in this joint venture with could result in the sale of assets in 2017. Any resulting proceeds of any such sales would first be used to repay the related first mortgage debt and then a portion of the remaining funds could be expected to be used to repay DDR’s preferred equity pursuant to the joint venture agreement terms. Any repayment of the preferred equity would reduce the amount of interest income recorded by the Company. Interest income recorded by DDR for the year ended December 31, 2016, was $26.4 million related to the investment in this joint venture.

In 2015, a newly formed joint venture between a consolidated affiliate of the Company and Blackstone acquired six shopping centers, aggregating 1.3 million square feet of owned-GLA, in a transaction valued at $250.1 million. DDR invested $12.9 million in common equity and $82.6 million in preferred equity in the joint venture with a fixed preferred dividend rate of 8.5% per annum. The joint venture was funded through assumed debt of $112.9 million. DDR provides customary leasing and management services and has the right of first offer to acquire all six of the assets under specified conditions consistent with past transactions with Blackstone. In 2016, $10.0 million of the preferred equity was repaid.

Prior Investments

| • | BRE DDR Retail Holdings I

In 2014, DDR acquired Blackstone’s 95% interest in one shopping center for $14.8 million. The Company recorded a Gain on Change in Control of Interests of $0.3 million related to this transaction in 2014. There are no assets remaining in this joint venture.

| • | BRE DDR Retail Holdings II

In 2014, the Company acquired sole ownership of all seven assets owned by the joint venture. The transaction was valued at $395.3 million at 100%. In connection with the closing, the Company assumed Blackstone’s 95% share of $233.3 million of mortgage debt, at face value, of which $28.0 million was repaid upon closing. In addition, $31.2 million of the preferred equity interest previously funded by the Company was repaid upon closing. The Company recorded a Gain on Change in Control of Interests of $4.0 million related to this transaction in 2014.

Development and Redevelopment Opportunities

One of the important benefits of the Company’s asset class is the ability to phase development and redevelopment projects over time until appropriate leasing levels can be achieved. To maximize the return on capital spending, the Company generally adheres to strict investment criteria thresholds. The Company also evaluates the credit quality of the tenants and, in the case of redevelopments, generally seeks to upgrade the retailer merchandise mix. The Company applies this strategy to both its consolidated and certain unconsolidated joint ventures that own assets under development and redevelopment because the Company has significant influence and, in most cases, approval rights over decisions relating to significant capital expenditures.

The Company will generally commence construction on various developments only after substantial tenant leasing has occurred and acceptable construction financing is available. The Company will continue to closely monitor its expected spending in 2017 for developments and redevelopments, as the Company considers this funding to be discretionary spending. The Company does not anticipate expending significant funds on joint venture development projects in 2017.

The Company’s consolidated land holdings are classified in two separate line items on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets included herein, (i) Land and (ii) Construction in Progress and Land. At December 31, 2016, the $2.0 billion of Land primarily consisted of land that is part of the Company’s shopping center portfolio. However, this amount also includes a small portion of vacant land composed primarily of outlots or expansion pads adjacent to the shopping center properties. Approximately 144 acres of this land, which has a recorded cost basis of approximately $19 million, is available for future development.

Included in Construction in Progress and Land at December 31, 2016, were $30 million of recorded costs related to undeveloped land for which active construction has not yet commenced or was previously ceased. The Company evaluates its intentions with respect to these assets each reporting period and records an impairment charge equal to the difference between the current carrying value and fair value when the expected undiscounted cash flows are less than the asset’s carrying value. In 2015, the Company determined it would no longer pursue the development of certain of these assets.

Development and Redevelopment Projects

As part of its portfolio management strategy to develop, expand, improve and re-tenant various properties, the Company has invested approximately $206 million in various consolidated active development and redevelopment projects and expects to bring at least $80 million of investments into service in 2017 on a net basis, after deducting sales proceeds from outlot sales.

55

At December 31, 2016, the Company had one significant consolidated development project, which was as follows (dollars in millions and GLA in tho usands):

Location |  | Estimated/Actual Initial Owned Anchor Opening |  | Estimated Owned GLA |  |  | Estimated Gross Cost |  |  | Estimated Net Cost |  |  | Net Cost Incurred at December 31, 2016 |
Guilford Commons (New Haven, Connecticut) |  | 4Q15 |  |  | 130 |  |  | $ | 69 |  |  | $ | 69 |  |  | $ | 68 |

The Company’s redevelopment projects are typically substantially complete within a year of the construction commencement date. The Company sold its major redevelopment asset in Pasadena, California, in January 2016 for a net gain that had net costs incurred of $20.7 million at the time of sale. At December 31, 2016, the Company’s significant consolidated redevelopment projects were as follows (in millions):

Location |  | Estimated Gross Cost |  |  | Cost Incurred at December 31, 2016 |
Kenwood Square (Cincinnati, Ohio) |  | $ | 31 |  |  | $ | 19 |
Belgate (expansion) (Charlotte, North Carolina) |  |  | 26 |  |  |  | 17 |
Bermuda Square (Richmond, Virginia) |  |  | 19 |  |  |  | 13 |
Plaza del Sol (expansion) (San Juan, Puerto Rico) |  |  | 12 |  |  |  | 6 |
Other redevelopments |  |  | 100 |  |  |  | 37 |
Total |  | $ | 188 |  |  | $ | 92 |

For redevelopment assets completed in 2016, the assets placed in service were completed at a cost of approximately $127 per square foot, excluding a large-scale outlet project (completed at a cost of approximately $309 per square foot).

2015 and 2014 Strategic Transaction Activity

Acquisitions and Investments

In 2015, the Company acquired four shopping centers (Orange County, California; Orlando, Florida (two assets) and Houston, Texas). These assets aggregated 1.2 million square feet of Company-owned GLA and were acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $219.1 million. The Company assumed $33.0 million of mortgage debt at a fair value of $33.7 million at closing with these acquisitions. The Company acquired its partner’s 80% interest in the asset in Orange County, California, included above, valued at $49.2 million in connection with the final dissolution of the Company’s joint venture with the Coventry II Fund in exchange for the Company’s transfer of its interest in the remaining 21 joint venture assets. The Company recorded a Gain on Change in Control of Interests of $14.3 million related to the acquisition of the interest in this asset from the joint venture.

In 2014, the Company acquired five shopping centers (Roseville, California; Colorado Springs, Colorado; Chicago, Illinois; Cincinnati, Ohio and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania). In addition, the Company acquired its partner’s share of eight assets held through two joint ventures with Blackstone. These assets aggregate 2.8 million square feet of Company-owned GLA and were acquired for an aggregate purchase price of $688.8 million. The Company assumed $281.7 million of mortgage debt at a fair value of $293.3 million and issued 1.0 million Operating Partnership Units (“OP Units”) valued at $17.9 million at closing in connection with these acquisitions. These OP Units were converted into DDR common shares in 2015.

Dispositions

In 2015, the Company sold 29 shopping center properties, aggregating 3.9 million square feet, plus non-income producing assets, for an aggregate sales price of $495.5 million. The Company recorded a net gain of $167.6 million. The Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures sold 16 shopping center properties, excluding the asset in Orange County, California, aggregating 1.7 million square feet, for an aggregate sales price of $289.7 million, of which the Company’s proportionate share of the gain was approximately $4.0 million.

In 2014, the Company sold 35 shopping center properties, aggregating 5.7 million square feet, and other consolidated non-income producing assets for an aggregate sales price of $654.0 million. The Company recorded a net gain of $99.1 million. One of the land parcels sold was the entire acreage of undeveloped land in Russia. The Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures sold 37 shopping center properties, excluding those properties acquired by the Company as described above, aggregating 4.7 million square feet, for an aggregate sales price of $480.4 million, of which the Company’s proportionate share of the gain was approximately $11.9 million.

In 2014, the Company sold its entire investment in the Sonae Sierra Brazil BV Sarl (“SSB”) joint venture for $343.6 million to Mr. Alexander Otto, a director of the Company in 2015, and certain of his affiliates. Through this investment, the Company owned an

56

approximate 33% interest in Sonae Sierra Brasil, as well as an indirect ownership in the Parque Dom Pedro shopping center. Dr. Finne, a director of DDR, is a Managing Director of certain entities affiliated with Mr. Otto, which entities purchase d a portion of the Company’s ownership in SSB. The Compa ny believe d that the sales price and other terms of the transaction were negotiated on terms equivalent to those prevailing in an arms’ length transaction. Prior to the authorization of the transaction, an independent c ommittee of the Company’s Board of D irectors reviewed the relationship of the parties and the terms of the proposed tr ansaction, among other things. Upon concluding its review, the independent c ommittee recommended the approval of the proposed transaction. After assessing the terms of the transaction and its favorability and fairness to the Company, t he transaction was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, with the two board members recommended for nomination by Mr. Otto, including Dr. Finne, recusing themselves.

Development and Redevelopments

As part of its portfolio management strategy to develop, expand, improve and re-tenant various consolidated properties, the Company invested an aggregate of $247.3 million and $190.9 million in various development and redevelopment projects on a net basis, after deducting sales proceeds from outlot sales, during 2015 and 2014, respectively.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

The Company has a number of off-balance sheet joint ventures with varying economic structures. Through these interests, the Company has investments in operating properties and one development project. Such arrangements are generally with institutional investors located throughout the United States.

The Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures had aggregate outstanding indebtedness to third parties of $3.0 billion and $3.2 billion at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively (see Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk). Such mortgages are generally non-recourse to the Company and its partners; however, certain mortgages may have recourse to the Company and its partners in certain limited situations, such as misuse of funds and material misrepresentations.

CAPITALIZATION

At December 31, 2016, the Company’s capitalization consisted of $4.5 billion of debt, $350.0 million of preferred shares and $10.5 billion of market equity (market equity is defined as common shares and OP Units outstanding multiplied by $15.27, the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the New York Stock Exchange at December 31, 2016), resulting in a debt to total market capitalization ratio of 0.43 to 1.0, as compared to the ratios of 0.44 to 1.0 and 0.43 to 1.0 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The closing prices of the common shares on the New York Stock Exchange were $16.84 and $18.36 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The Company’s total debt consisted of the following (in billions):

| December 31, |
| 2016 |  |  | 2015 |
Fixed-rate debt(A) | $ | 3.9 |  |  | $ | 4.3 |
Variable-rate debt |  | 0.6 |  |  |  | 0.8 |
| $ | 4.5 |  |  | $ | 5.1 |

(A) | Includes $76.9 million and $78.5 million of variable-rate debt that had been effectively swapped to a fixed rate through the use of interest rate derivative contracts at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

It is management’s strategy to have access to the capital resources necessary to manage the Company’s balance sheet and to repay upcoming maturities. Accordingly, the Company may seek to obtain funds through additional debt or equity financings and/or joint venture capital in a manner consistent with its intention to operate with a conservative debt capitalization policy and to reduce the Company’s cost of capital by maintaining an investment grade rating with Moody’s, S&P and Fitch Ratings, Inc. The security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities, as it may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the rating organization. Each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating. The Company may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms, or at all, which may negatively affect future ratings.

The Company’s credit facilities and the indentures under which the Company’s senior and subordinated unsecured indebtedness is, or may be, issued contain certain financial and operating covenants, including, among other things, debt service coverage and fixed charge coverage ratios, as well as limitations on the Company’s ability to incur secured and unsecured indebtedness, sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and engage in mergers and certain acquisitions. Although the Company intends to operate in compliance with these covenants, if the Company were to violate these covenants, the Company may be subject to higher finance costs and fees or accelerated maturities. In addition, certain of the Company’s credit facilities and indentures may permit the acceleration of maturity in the event certain other debt of the Company has been accelerated. Foreclosure on mortgaged properties or

57

an inability to refinance existing indebtedness would have a negative impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND OTHER COMMITMENTS

The Company has debt obligations relating to its Revolving Credit Facilities, term loan, fixed-rate senior notes and mortgages payable with maturities ranging from one to 10 years. In addition, the Company has non-cancelable operating leases, principally for office space and ground leases.

These obligations are summarized as follows for the subsequent five years ending December 31 (in millions):

Contractual Obligations |  | Total |  |  | Less than 1 year |  |  | 1–3 years |  |  | 3–5 years |  |  | More than 5 years |
Debt |  | $ | 4,505.9 |  |  | $ | 1,124.3 |  |  | $ | 675.0 |  |  | $ | 1,043.8 |  |  | $ | 1,662.8 |
Interest payments(A) |  |  | 757.6 |  |  |  | 172.2 |  |  |  | 263.1 |  |  |  | 171.7 |  |  |  | 150.6 |
Operating leases |  |  | 133.5 |  |  |  | 2.7 |  |  |  | 5.5 |  |  |  | 5.1 |  |  |  | 120.2 |
Total |  | $ | 5,397.0 |  |  | $ | 1,299.2 |  |  | $ | 943.6 |  |  | $ | 1,220.6 |  |  | $ | 1,933.6 |

(A) | Represents interest payments expected to be incurred on the Company’s consolidated debt obligations as of December 31, 2016, including capitalized interest. For variable-rate debt, the rate in effect at December 31, 2016, is assumed to remain in effect until the respective initial maturity date of each instrument.

In conjunction with the development and redevelopment of shopping centers, the Company had entered into commitments with general contractors aggregating approximately $11.6 million for its consolidated properties at December 31, 2016. These obligations, composed principally of construction contracts, are generally due within 12 to 24 months, as the related construction costs are incurred, and are expected to be financed through operating cash flow, new or existing construction loans, asset sales or Revolving Credit Facilities.

At December 31, 2016, the Company had letters of credit outstanding of $21.9 million. The Company has not recorded any obligations associated with these letters of credit, the majority of which are collateral for existing indebtedness and other obligations of the Company.

The Company routinely enters into contracts for the maintenance of its properties. These contracts typically can be canceled upon 30 to 60 days notice without penalty. At December 31, 2016, the Company had purchase order obligations, typically payable within one year, aggregating approximately $2.3 million related to the maintenance of its properties and general and administrative expenses.

The Company has entered into employment contracts with certain executive officers. These contracts generally provide for base salary, bonuses based on factors including the financial performance of the Company and personal performance, participation in the Company’s equity plans and retirement plans, health and welfare benefits and reimbursement of various qualified business expenses. These employment agreements also provide for certain perquisites (e.g., disability insurance coverage, reimbursement of country or social club expenses related to the conduct of the Company’s business, etc.) and severance payments and benefits for various departure scenarios. The employment agreement for the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer extends through July 2019. The agreement for the Interim Chief Financial Officer and certain other senior executive officers extend through December 2018. All of the agreements are subject to cancellation by either the Company or the executive without cause upon at least 90 days notice.

INFLATION

Most of the Company’s long-term leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. Such provisions include clauses enabling the Company to receive additional rental income from escalation clauses that generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases and/or percentage rentals based on tenants’ gross sales. Such escalations are determined by negotiation, increases in the consumer price index or similar inflation indices. In addition, many of the Company’s leases are for terms of less than 10 years, permitting the Company to seek increased rents at market rates upon renewal. Most of the Company’s leases require the tenants to pay their share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing the Company’s exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS

The Company continues to believe there is a retailer demand for quality locations within well-positioned shopping centers. Further, the Company continues to see strong demand from a broad range of retailers for its space, particularly in the off-price sector, which is a reflection of the general outlook of consumers who are demanding more value for their dollars. Many of these retailers

58

have aggressive s tore opening plans for 2018 and 2019. This is evidenced by the continued volume of leasing activity, which was approximately 9 million square feet of space for new leases and renewals for the year ended December 31, 2016. The Company also benefits from i ts real estate asset class (shopping centers), which typically has a higher return on capital expenditures, as well as a diversified tenant base, with only two tenants whose annualized rental revenue equals or exceeds 3% of the Company’s annualized consolidated revenues plus the Company’s proportionate share of unconsolidated joint venture revenues (TJX Companies at 3.8% and Bed Bath & Beyond at 3.4%). Other significant tenants include Walmart, Target, PetSmart, Dick’s Sporting Goods, Ro ss Stores, AMC Theatres, Lowe’s, Ulta and Publix, all of which have relatively strong credit ratings, remain well-capitalized and have outperformed other retail categories on a relative basis over time. In addition, several of the Company’s big box tenant s (Dick’s Sporting Goods, Walmart, TJX Companies and Target) have been adapting to an omni-channel retail environment, creating positive same-store sales growth over the prior few years. The Company believes these tenants will continue providing it with a stable revenue base for the foreseeable future, given the long-term nature of these leases. Moreover, the majority of the tenants in the Company’s shopping centers provide day-to-day consumer necessities with a focus toward value and convenience, versus high-priced discretionary luxury items, which the Company believes will enable many of its tenants to outperform even in a challenging economic environment.

The retail shopping sector continues to be affected by the competitive nature of the retail business and the competition for market share, as well as general economic conditions, where stronger retailers have out-positioned some of the weaker retailers. These shifts can force some market share away from weaker retailers, which could require them to downsize and close stores and/or declare bankruptcy. In many cases, the loss of a weaker tenant or downsizing of space creates a value-add opportunity to re-lease space at higher rents to a stronger retailer. Overall, the Company believes its portfolio remained stable at December 31, 2016, as evidenced by the consistency in the occupancy rate as further described below. However, there can be no assurance that the loss of a tenant or downsizing of space will not adversely affect the Company in the future (see Item 1A. Risk Factors).

The Company believes that the quality of its shopping center portfolio is strong, as evidenced by the high historical occupancy rates and consistent growth in the average annualized base rent per occupied square foot. Historical occupancy has generally ranged from 92% to 96% since the Company’s initial public offering in 1993. The shopping center portfolio occupancy was 93.3% at December 31, 2016 and 2015. The total portfolio average annualized base rent per occupied square foot was $15.00 at December 31, 2016, as compared to $14.48 at December 31, 2015. The increase primarily was due to the Company’s strategic portfolio realignment achieved through the sale of lower quality assets and the acquisition of shopping centers with higher growth potential, as well as continued lease up and renewal of the existing portfolio at positive rental spreads. Moreover, the Company has been able to achieve these results without significant capital investment in tenant improvements or leasing commissions. The weighted-average cost of tenant improvements and lease commissions estimated to be incurred over the expected lease term for new leases executed during 2016 was only $4.77 per rentable square foot. The Company generally does not expend a significant amount of capital on lease renewals. The quality of the property revenue stream is high and consistent, as it is generally derived from retailers with good credit profiles under long-term leases, with very little reliance on overage rents generated by tenant sales performance. The Company is very conscious of and sensitive to the risks posed by the economy, but believes that the position of its portfolio and the general diversity and credit quality of its tenant base should enable it to successfully navigate through potentially challenging economic times.

The Company owns 14 assets on the island of Puerto Rico aggregating 4.8 million square feet of Company-owned GLA. These assets represent 12.2% of the Company’s total consolidated revenue and 13.6% of the Company’s consolidated property revenue less property expenses (i.e., property net operating income) for the year ended December 31, 2016. Additionally, these assets account for 6.3% of Company-owned GLA, including the unconsolidated joint ventures at December 31, 2016. There is concern about the status of the Puerto Rican economy, the ability of the government of Puerto Rico to meet its financial obligations and the impact of any government default on the economy of Puerto Rico. The Company, however, believes that its assets are well positioned to withstand continuing recessionary pressures and represent a source of stable, high-quality cash flow because the tenants in these assets (many of which are U.S. retailers such as Walmart and TJX Companies) typically cater to the local consumer’s desire for value and convenience and often provide consumers with day-to-day necessities. Nonetheless, the Company’s Board of Directors and management continue to evaluate its investment in the 14 assets and may determine to dispose of all or a portion of these assets. There can be no assurance that the economic conditions in Puerto Rico will not deteriorate further, which could materially and negatively impact consumer spending and ultimately adversely affect the Company’s assets in Puerto Rico or its abilityto dispose of the properties on commercially reasonable terms, or at all (see Item 1A. Risk Factors).

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

New Accounting Standards are more fully described in Note 1, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of the Company’s consolidated financial statements included herein.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. Historical results and percentage relationships set forth in the Company’s

59

consolidated financial statements, including trends that might appear, should not be taken a s indicative of future operations. The Company considers portions of this information to be “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, both as amende d, with respect to the Company’s expectations for future periods. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements related to acquisitions (including any related pro forma financial information) and other business development activities, future capital expenditures, financing sources and availability and the effects of environmental and other regulations. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are based upon reasonable assumption s, it can give no assurance that its expectations will be achieved. For this purpose, any statements contained herein that are not statements of historical fact should be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, the words “will,” “believes,” “anticipates,” “plans,” “expects,” “seeks,” “estimates” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Readers should exercise caution in interpreting and relying on forward-looking statements because such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that are, in some cases, beyond the Company’s control and that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements an d that could materially affect the Company’s actual results, performance or achievements. For additional factors that could cause the results of the Company to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements, please refer to Item 1A. Risk Factors, included elsewhere in this report.

Factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the following:

| • | The Company is subject to general risks affecting the real estate industry, including the need to enter into new leases or renew leases on favorable terms to generate rental revenues, and any economic downturn may adversely affect the ability of the Company’s tenants, or new tenants, to enter into new leases or the ability of the Company’s existing tenants to renew their leases at rates at least as favorable as their current rates;

| • | The Company could be adversely affected by changes in the local markets where its properties are located, as well as by adverse changes in national economic and market conditions;

| • | The Company may fail to anticipate the effects on its properties of changes in consumer buying practices, including sales over the Internet and the resulting retailing practices and space needs of its tenants, or a general downturn in its tenants’ businesses, which may cause tenants to close stores or default in payment of rent;

| • | The Company is subject to competition for tenants from other owners of retail properties, and its tenants are subject to competition from other retailers and methods of distribution. The Company is dependent upon the successful operations and financial condition of its tenants, in particular its major tenants, and could be adversely affected by the bankruptcy of those tenants;

| • | The Company relies on major tenants, which makes it vulnerable to changes in the business and financial condition of, or demand for its space by, such tenants;

| • | The Company may not realize the intended benefits of acquisition or merger transactions. The acquired assets may not perform as well as the Company anticipated, or the Company may not successfully integrate the assets and realize improvements in occupancy and operating results. The acquisition of certain assets may subject the Company to liabilities, including environmental liabilities;

| • | The Company may fail to identify, acquire, construct or develop additional properties that produce a desired yield on invested capital, or may fail to effectively integrate acquisitions of properties or portfolios of properties. In addition, the Company may be limited in its acquisition opportunities due to competition, the inability to obtain financing on reasonable terms or any financing at all and other factors;

| • | The Company may fail to dispose of properties on favorable terms, especially in regions expressing deteriorating economic conditions. In addition, real estate investments can be illiquid, particularly as prospective buyers may experience increased costs of financing or difficulties obtaining financing due to local or global conditions, and could limit the Company’s ability to promptly make changes to its portfolio to respond to economic and other conditions;

| • | The Company may abandon a development opportunity after expending resources if it determines that the development opportunity is not feasible due to a variety of factors, including a lack of availability of construction financing on reasonable terms, the impact of the economic environment on prospective tenants’ ability to enter into new leases or pay contractual rent, or the inability of the Company to obtain all necessary zoning and other required governmental permits and authorizations;

60

| • | The Company may not complete development projects on schedule as a result of various factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control, such as weather, labor conditions, governmental approvals, material shortages or general economic downturn, resulting in limited availability of capital, increased debt service expense an d construction costs and decreases in revenue;

| • | The Company’s financial condition may be affected by required debt service payments, the risk of default and restrictions on its ability to incur additional debt or to enter into certain transactions under its credit facilities and other documents governing its debt obligations. In addition, the Company may encounter difficulties in obtaining permanent financing or refinancing existing debt. Borrowings under the Company’s Revolving Credit Facilities are subject to certain representations and warranties and customary events of default, including any event that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business or financial condition;

| • | Changes in interest rates could adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common shares, as well as its performance and cash flow;

| • | Debt and/or equity financing necessary for the Company to continue to grow and operate its business may not be available or may not be available on favorable terms;

| • | Disruptions in the financial markets could affect the Company’s ability to obtain financing on reasonable terms and have other adverse effects on the Company and the market price of the Company’s common shares;

| • | The Company is subject to complex regulations related to its status as a REIT and would be adversely affected if it failed to qualify as a REIT;

| • | The Company must make distributions to shareholders to continue to qualify as a REIT, and if the Company must borrow funds to make distributions, those borrowings may not be available on favorable terms or at all;

| • | Joint venture investments may involve risks not otherwise present for investments made solely by the Company, including the possibility that a partner or co-venturer may become bankrupt, may at any time have interests or goals different from those of the Company and may take action contrary to the Company’s instructions, requests, policies or objectives, including the Company’s policy with respect to maintaining its qualification as a REIT. In addition, a partner or co-venturer may not have access to sufficient capital to satisfy its funding obligations to the joint venture. The partner could cause a default under the joint venture loan for reasons outside the Company’s control. Furthermore, the Company could be required to reduce the carrying value of its equity method investments if a loss in the carrying value of the investment is other than temporary;

| • | The Company’s decision to dispose of real estate assets, including undeveloped land and construction in progress, would change the holding period assumption in the undiscounted cash flow impairment analyses, which could result in material impairment losses and adversely affect the Company’s financial results;

I tem 7A. | QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company’s primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk. The Company’s debt, excluding unconsolidated joint venture debt (adjusted to reflect the $76.9 million and $78.5 million of variable-rate debt, respectively, that LIBOR was swapped to at a fixed rate of 2.8% at December 31, 2016 and 2015), is summarized as follows:

| December 31, 2016 |  |  | December 31, 2015 |
| Carrying Value (Millions) |  |  | Weighted- Average Maturity (Years) |  |  | Weighted- Average Interest Rate |  |  | Percentage of Total |  |  | Carrying Value (Millions) |  |  | Weighted- Average Maturity (Years) |  |  | Weighted- Average Interest Rate |  |  | Percentage of Total |
Fixed-Rate Debt | $ | 3,869.5 |  |  |  | 4.5 |  |  |  | 4.9 | % |  |  | 86.1 | % |  | $ | 4,254.5 |  |  |  | 5.1 |  |  |  | 5.2 | % |  |  | 82.8 | %
Variable-Rate Debt | $ | 624.5 |  |  |  | 0.3 |  |  |  | 1.9 | % |  |  | 13.9 | % |  | $ | 885.0 |  |  |  | 1.7 |  |  |  | 1.6 | % |  |  | 17.2 | %

The Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures’ indebtedness at its carrying value, adjusted to reflect the $42.0 million of variable-rate debt ($2.1 million at the Company’s proportionate share) that LIBOR was swapped to at a fixed rate of 1.9% at December 31, 2016 and 2015, is summarized as follows:

| December 31, 2016 |  |  | December 31, 2015 |
| Joint Venture Debt (Millions) |  |  | Company's Proportionate Share (Millions) |  |  | Weighted- Average Maturity (Years) |  |  | Weighted- Average Interest Rate |  |  | Joint Venture Debt (Millions) |  |  | Company's Proportionate Share (Millions) |  |  | Weighted- Average Maturity (Years) |  |  | Weighted- Average Interest Rate |
Fixed-Rate Debt | $ | 1,808.1 |  |  | $ | 298.3 |  |  |  | 1.6 |  |  |  | 5.4 | % |  | $ | 2,185.7 |  |  | $ | 356.5 |  |  |  | 2.4 |  |  |  | 5.3 | %
Variable-Rate Debt | $ | 1,226.3 |  |  | $ | 114.6 |  |  |  | 1.9 |  |  |  | 2.6 | % |  | $ | 991.9 |  |  | $ | 85.4 |  |  |  | 2.2 |  |  |  | 2.0 | %

The Company intends to use retained cash flow, proceeds from asset sales, equity and debt financing and variable-rate indebtedness available under its Revolving Credit Facilities to repay indebtedness and fund capital expenditures of the Company’s shopping centers. Thus, to the extent the Company incurs additional variable-rate indebtedness, its exposure to increases in interest rates in an inflationary period could increase. The Company does not believe, however, that increases in interest expense as a result of inflation will significantly impact the Company’s distributable cash flow.

The interest rate risk on a portion of the Company’s and its unconsolidated joint ventures’ variable-rate debt described above has been mitigated through the use of interest rate swap agreements (the “Swaps”) with major financial institutions. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the interest rate on the Company’s $76.9 million and $78.5 million consolidated floating rate debt, respectively, was swapped to a fixed rate. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the interest rate on $42.0 million of unconsolidated joint venture floating rate debt (of which $2.1 million is the Company’s proportionate share) was swapped to a fixed rate. The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the Swaps. The Company believes it mitigates its credit risk by entering into Swaps with major financial institutions.

The carrying value of the Company’s fixed-rate debt is adjusted to include the $76.9 million and $78.5 million of variable-rate debt that was swapped to a fixed rate at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The fair value of the Company’s fixed-rate debt is adjusted to (i) include the Swaps reflected in the carrying value and (ii) include the Company’s proportionate share of the joint venture fixed-rate debt. An estimate of the effect of a 100 basis-point increase at December 31, 2016 and 2015, is summarized as follows (in millions):

| December 31, 2016 |  |  |  | December 31, 2015 |  |
| Carrying Value |  |  | Fair Value |  |  | 100 Basis-Point Increase in Market Interest Rate |  |  |  | Carrying Value |  |  | Fair Value |  |  | 100 Basis-Point Increase in Market Interest Rate |  |
Company's fixed-rate debt | $ | 3,869.5 |  |  | $ | 4,044.2 |  | (A) | $ | 3,895.0 |  | (B) |  | $ | 4,254.5 |  |  | $ | 4,451.5 |  | (A) | $ | 4,271.3 |  | (B)
Company's proportionate share of joint venture fixed-rate debt | $ | 298.3 |  |  | $ | 305.1 |  |  | $ | 300.8 |  |  |  | $ | 356.5 |  |  | $ | 367.8 |  |  | $ | 360.0 |  |

62

(A) | Includes the fair value of Swaps, which was a liability of $1.0 million and $2.5 million, net, at Dece mber 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

(B) | Includes the fair value of Swaps, which was a liability of $0.5 million and $1.2 million, net, at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The sensitivity to changes in interest rates of the Company’s fixed-rate debt was determined using a valuation model based upon factors that measure the net present value of such obligations that arise from the hypothetical estimate as discussed above.

Further, a 100 basis-point increase in short-term market interest rates on variable-rate debt at December 31, 2016, would result in an increase in interest expense of approximately $6.3 million for the Company and $1.2 million representing the Company’s proportionate share of the joint ventures’ interest expense relating to variable-rate debt outstanding for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2016. The estimated increase in interest expense for the year does not give effect to possible changes in the daily balance of the Company’s or joint ventures’ outstanding variable-rate debt.

The Company and its joint ventures intend to continually monitor and actively manage interest costs on their variable-rate debt portfolio and may enter into swap positions based on market fluctuations. In addition, the Company believes it has the ability to obtain funds through additional equity and/or debt offerings and joint venture capital. Accordingly, the cost of obtaining such protection agreements in relation to the Company’s access to capital markets will continue to be evaluated. The Company has not entered, and does not plan to enter, into any derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes. As of December 31, 2016, the Company had no other material exposure to market risk.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

The Company’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Securities Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f). Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013). Based on those criteria, management concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2016.

The effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, has been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm as stated in their report which appears herein and is incorporated in this Item 9A. by reference thereto.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

During the three months ended December 31, 2016, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Report of Independent Regi stered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of DDR Corp.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(1) present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of DDR Corp. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2016 and 2015, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedules listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements and financial statement schedules, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in “Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting” appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements, on the financial statement schedules, and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

As discussed in Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company adopted accounting standards updates (“ASU”) No. 2014-08, “Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity”, which changed the criteria for reporting discontinued operations in 2015.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

N otes to Consolidated Financial Statements

1. | Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Business

DDR Corp. and its related consolidated real estate subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company” or “DDR”) and unconsolidated joint ventures are primarily engaged in the business of acquiring, owning, developing, redeveloping, expanding, leasing, financing and managing shopping centers. Unless otherwise provided, references herein to the Company or DDR include DDR Corp. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries and consolidated joint ventures. The Company’s tenant base primarily includes national and regional retail chains and local retailers. Consequently, the Company’s credit risk is concentrated in the retail industry.

Use of Estimates in Preparation of Financial Statements

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the year. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the results of the Company and all entities in which the Company has a controlling interest or has been determined to be the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in real estate joint ventures in which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence, but does not have financial or operating control, are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Company’s share of the earnings (or loss) of these joint ventures is included in consolidated net income (loss).

The Company has two unconsolidated joint ventures included in the Company’s joint venture investments that are considered VIEs for which the Company is not the primary beneficiary. The Company’s maximum exposure to losses associated with these VIEs is limited to its aggregate investment, which was $405.4 million and $412.4 million as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Real Estate

Real estate assets, which include construction in progress and undeveloped land, are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and amortization is recorded on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Buildings | Useful lives, 20 to 31.5 years
Building improvements and fixtures | Useful lives, ranging from 5 to 20 years
Tenant improvements | Shorter of economic life or lease terms

The Company periodically assesses the useful lives of its depreciable real estate assets and accounts for any revisions, which are not material for the periods presented, prospectively. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operations as incurred. Significant expenditures that improve or extend the life of the asset are capitalized.

F-8

Construction in Progress and Land includes undeveloped land as well as construction in progress related to shopping center developments and expansions. Th e Company capitalized certain direct costs (salaries and related personnel) and incremental internal construction costs of $8.1 million, $9.1 million and $9.9 million in 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Purchase Price Accounting

Upon acquisition of properties, the Company estimates the fair value of acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and improvements and intangibles, generally including (i) above- and below-market leases, (ii) in-place leases and (iii) tenant relationships. The Company allocates the purchase price to assets acquired and liabilities assumed on a gross basis based on their relative fair values at the date of acquisition. In estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangibles acquired, the Company considers information obtained about each property as a result of its due diligence and marketing and leasing activities and uses various valuation methods, such as estimated cash flow projections using appropriate discount and capitalization rates, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, estimates of replacement costs net of depreciation and other available market information. The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired property considers the value of the property as if it were vacant. Above- and below-market lease values are recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate that reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management's estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the initial term plus the estimated term of any below-market, fixed-rate renewal options for below-market leases. The capitalized above- and below-market lease values are amortized to base rental revenue over the related lease term. The purchase price is further allocated to in-place lease values and tenant relationship values based on management's evaluation of the specific characteristics of the acquired lease portfolio and the Company's overall relationship with the anchor tenants. Such amounts are amortized to expense over the remaining initial lease term (and expected renewal periods for tenant relationships).

Real Estate Impairment Assessment

The Company reviews its individual real estate assets, including undeveloped land and construction in progress, for potential impairment indicators whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators include, but are not limited to, significant decreases in projected net operating income and occupancy percentages, estimated hold periods, projected losses on potential future sales, market factors, significant changes in projected development costs or completion dates and sustainability of development projects. An asset is considered impaired when the undiscounted future cash flows are not sufficient to recover the asset’s carrying value. The determination of anticipated undiscounted cash flows is inherently subjective, requiring significant estimates made by management, and considers the most likely expected course of action at the balance sheet date based on current plans, intended holding periods and available market information. If the Company is evaluating the potential sale of an asset or undeveloped land, the undiscounted future cash flows analysis is probability-weighted based upon management’s best estimate of the likelihood of the alternative courses of action as of the balance sheet date. If an impairment is indicated, an impairment loss is recognized based on the excess of the carrying amount of the asset over its fair value. The Company recorded aggregate impairment charges of $110.9 million, $279.0 million and $38.1 million, related to consolidated real estate investments during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 (including discontinued operations), respectively (Note 12).

Disposition of Real Estate and Real Estate Investments

Sales of real estate include the sale of land, operating properties and investments in real estate joint ventures. Gains from dispositions are recognized using the full accrual or partial sale methods, provided that various criteria relating to the terms of sale and any subsequent involvement by the Company with the asset sold are met. If the criteria for sale recognition or gain recognition are not met because of a form of continuing involvement, the accounting for such transactions is dependent on the nature of the continuing involvement. In certain cases, a sale might not be recognized, and in others all or a portion of the gain might be deferred.

A discontinued operation includes only the disposal of a component of an entity and represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity’s financial results. Since January 1, 2015, the disposition of the Company’s individual properties did not qualify for discontinued operations presentation, and thus, the results of the properties that have been sold remain in Income from Continuing Operations and any associated gains or losses from the disposition are included in Gain on Disposition of Real Estate.

Prior to January 1, 2015, pursuant to the revised guidance for reporting discontinued operations, the shopping centers sold by the Company were considered a component of an entity, and the operations of the sold asset were considered discontinued operations. Interest expense that was specifically identifiable to the property was included in the computation of interest expense attributable to discontinued operations. Consolidated interest expense at the corporate level was allocated to discontinued operations based on the proportion of net assets disposed.

Real Estate Held for Sale

The Company generally considers assets to be held for sale when management believes that a sale is probable within a year. This generally occurs when a sales contract is executed with no substantive contingencies and the prospective buyer has significant funds at risk. Assets that are classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell.

F-9

The Company evaluated its property portfolio and did not identify any properties that would meet the above-me ntioned criteria for held for sale as of December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Interest and Real Estate Taxes

Interest and real estate taxes incurred relating to the construction, expansion or redevelopment of shopping centers are capitalized and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the building. This includes interest incurred on funds invested in or advanced to unconsolidated joint ventures with qualifying development activities. The Company will cease the capitalization of these costs when construction activities are substantially completed and the property is available for occupancy by tenants. If the Company suspends substantially all activities related to development of a qualifying asset, the Company will cease capitalization of interest and taxes until activities are resumed.

Interest paid during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, aggregated $220.0 million, $234.6 million and $243.2 million, respectively, of which $3.1 million, $6.7 million and $8.7 million, respectively, was capitalized.

Investments in and Advances to Joint Ventures

To the extent that the Company’s cost basis in an unconsolidated joint venture is different from the basis reflected at the joint venture level, the basis difference is amortized over the life of the related assets and included in the Company’s share of equity in net income (loss) of the joint venture. Periodically, management assesses whether there are any indicators that the value of the Company’s investments in unconsolidated joint ventures may be impaired. An investment is impaired only if the Company’s estimate of the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment and such difference is deemed to be other than temporary. The Company recorded aggregate impairment charges of $1.9 million and $30.7 million (Note 12) related to its investments in unconsolidated joint ventures during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. These impairment charges create a basis difference between the Company’s share of accumulated equity as compared to the investment balance of the respective unconsolidated joint venture. The Company allocates the aggregate impairment charge to each of the respective properties owned by the joint venture on a relative fair value basis and amortizes this basis differential as an adjustment to the equity in net income (loss) recorded by the Company over the estimated remaining useful lives of the underlying assets.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company maintains cash deposits with major financial institutions, which from time to time may exceed federally insured limits. The Company periodically assesses the financial condition of these institutions and believes that the risk of loss is minimal.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash represents amounts on deposit with financial institutions primarily for debt service payments, real estate taxes, capital improvements and operating reserves as required pursuant to the respective loan agreement. For purposes of the Company’s consolidated statements of cash flows, changes in restricted cash caused by changes in operating expenses funded by the deposits, primarily real estate taxes, are reflected in cash from operating activities, and changes in restricted cash caused by changes in capital improvements are reflected in cash from investing activities.

Accounts Receivable

The Company makes estimates of the amounts it believes will not be collected related to base rents, straight-line rents receivable, expense reimbursements and other amounts owed. The Company analyzes accounts receivable, tenant credit worthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. In addition, amounts due from tenants in bankruptcy are analyzed and estimates are made in connection with the expected recovery of pre-petition and post-petition claims.

Accounts receivable, other than straight-line rents receivable, are expected to be collected within one year and are net of estimated unrecoverable amounts of $7.1 million and $6.2 million at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, straight-line rents receivable, net of a provision for uncollectible amounts of $4.1 million and $4.0 million, respectively, aggregated $65.1 million and $65.7 million, respectively.

Notes Receivable

Notes receivable include certain loans that are held for investment and are generally collateralized by real estate-related investments and may be subordinate to other senior loans. Loans receivable are recorded at stated principal amounts or at initial investment plus accretable yield for loans purchased at a discount. The related discounts on mortgages and other loans purchased are accreted over the life of the related loan receivable. The Company defers loan origination and commitment fees, net of origination costs, and amortizes them over the term of the related loan. The Company evaluates the collectability of both principal and interest on each loan based on an assessment of the underlying collateral value to determine whether it is impaired, and not by the use of internal

F-10

risk ratings. A loan loss reserve is recorded when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. When a loan is considered to be impaired, the amount of loss is calculated by comparing the recorded inv estment to the value of the underlying collateral. As the underlying collateral for a majority of the notes receivable is real estate-related investments, the same valuation techniques are used to value the collateral as those used to determine the fair v alue of real estate investments for impairment purposes. Given the small number of loans outstanding, all of the Company’s loans are evaluated individually for this purpose. Interest income on performing loans is accrued as earned. A loan is placed on n on-accrual status when, based upon current information and events, it is probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. Interest income on non-performing loans is generally recognized on a cash basis. Recognition of interest income on an accrual basis on non-performing loans is resumed when it is probable that the Company will be able to collect amounts due according to the contractual terms.

Deferred Charges

External costs and fees incurred in obtaining indebtedness are included in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as a direct deduction from the related debt liability, rather than as an asset. Debt issuance costs related to the Company’s revolving credit facilities remain classified as an asset on the consolidated balance sheets as these costs are, at the outset, not associated with an outstanding borrowing. The aggregate costs are amortized over the terms of the related debt agreements. Such amortization is reflected in Interest Expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Available-for-Sale Securities

Unrealized gains or losses from marketable equity securities were recorded in Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”), and any realized gains and losses were recorded using the specific identification method in the Company’s consolidated statements of comprehensive income or loss.

Treasury Shares

The Company’s share repurchases are reflected as treasury shares utilizing the cost method of accounting and are presented as a reduction to consolidated shareholders’ equity. Reissuances of the Company’s treasury shares at an amount below cost are recorded as a charge to paid-in capital due to the Company’s cumulative distributions in excess of net income.

Revenue Recognition

Minimum rents from tenants are recognized using the straight-line method over the lease term of the respective leases. Percentage and overage rents are recognized after a tenant’s reported sales have exceeded the applicable sales breakpoint set forth in the applicable lease. Revenues associated with expense reimbursements from tenants are recognized in the period that the related expenses are incurred based upon the tenant lease provision. Management fees are recorded in the period earned based on a percentage of collected revenue at the properties under management. Included in management and other fee income are fees (i.e., leasing and development fees) derived from the Company’s unconsolidated joint venture investments that are recognized to the extent attributable to the unaffiliated ownership interest. Ancillary and other property-related income, primarily composed of leasing vacant space to temporary tenants and kiosk income, is recognized in the period earned. Lease termination fees are recognized upon the effective termination of a tenant’s lease when the Company has no further obligations under the lease.

Fee and other income was composed of the following (in thousands):

| For the Year Ended December 31, |
| 2016 |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2014 |
Management and other fee income | $ | 36,298 |  |  | $ | 32,971 |  |  | $ | 31,907 |
Ancillary and other property income |  | 18,678 |  |  |  | 19,038 |  |  |  | 24,288 |
Lease termination fees |  | 3,512 |  |  |  | 2,774 |  |  |  | 4,085 |
Other |  | 80 |  |  |  | 565 |  |  |  | 621 |
Total fee and other income | $ | 58,568 |  |  | $ | 55,348 |  |  | $ | 60,901 |

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses include certain internal leasing and legal salaries and related expenses associated with the re-leasing of existing space, which are charged to operations as incurred.

Stock Option and Other Equity-Based Plans

Compensation cost relating to stock-based payment transactions classified as equity is recognized in the financial statements based upon the grant date fair value. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant in order to estimate the amount of share-based

F-11

awards that will ultimately vest. The forfeiture rate is based on historical rates for non-executive employees and actual expectations for executives.

Stock-based compensation cost recognized by the Company was $7.0 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, and $9.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. These amounts include $0.9 million, $0.5 million and $1.4 million of expense related to the accelerated vesting of awards due to employee separations in 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively. This net cost is included in General and Administrative Expenses in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

Income Taxes

The Company has made an election to qualify, and believes it is operating so as to qualify, as a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax, provided that it makes distributions to its shareholders equal to at least the amount of its REIT taxable income as defined under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and continues to satisfy certain other requirements.

In connection with the REIT Modernization Act, the Company is permitted to participate in certain activities and still maintain its qualification as a REIT, so long as these activities are conducted in entities that elect to be treated as taxable subsidiaries under the Code. As such, the Company is subject to federal and state income taxes on the income from these activities. The Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes Act (PATH Act) was enacted in December 2015 and included numerous law changes applicable to REITs. Currently effective changes have not, and the Company expects that the future changes will not, have a material impact on the Company’s operations.

In the normal course of business, the Company or one or more of its subsidiaries is subject to examination by federal, state and local tax jurisdictions as well as certain jurisdictions outside the United States, in which it operates, where applicable. The Company expects to recognize interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, as income tax expense. For the three years ended December 31, 2016, the Company recognized no material adjustments regarding its tax accounting treatment for uncertain tax provisions. As of December 31, 2016, the tax years that remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under applicable statutes of limitations are generally the year 2013 and forward.

Deferred Tax Assets

The Company accounts for income taxes related to its taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) under the asset and liability method, which requires the recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements. Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in the income statement in the period that includes the enactment date.

The Company records net deferred tax assets to the extent it believes it is more likely than not that these assets will be realized and would record a valuation allowance to reduce deferred tax assets when it has determined that an uncertainty exists regarding their realization, which would increase the provision for income taxes. In making such determination, the Company considers all available positive and negative evidence, including forecasts of future taxable income, the reversal of other existing temporary differences, available net operating loss carryforwards, tax planning strategies and recent results of operations. Several of these considerations require assumptions and significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates that the Company is utilizing to manage its business. To the extent facts and circumstances change in the future, adjustments to the valuation allowances may be required.

Foreign Currency Translation

The financial statements of the Company’s international consolidated and unconsolidated joint venture investments are translated into U.S. dollars using the exchange rate at each balance sheet date for assets and liabilities, an average exchange rate for each period for revenues, expenses, gains and losses, and at the transaction date for impairments or asset sales, with the Company’s proportionate share of the resulting translation adjustments recorded as Accumulated OCI. Gains or losses resulting from foreign currency transactions, translated to local currency, are included in income as incurred. In 2014, the Company recorded a release of foreign currency translation from Accumulated OCI to earnings as a result of the sale of its entire investments in Brazil and Russia and substantially all of its investments in Canada.

Derivative and Hedging Activities

The Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and

F-12

qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted t ransactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Derivatives may also be designated as hedges of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss rec ognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that is attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash f low hedge. The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of its risks, even if hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting.

Fair Value Hierarchy

The standard Fair Value Measurements specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based upon whether the inputs to those valuation techniques reflect assumptions other market participants would use based upon market data obtained from independent sources (observable inputs). The following summarizes the fair value hierarchy:

• Level 1 | Quoted prices in active markets that are unadjusted and accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
• Level 2 | Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are inactive, quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals and
• Level 3 | Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.

Segments

At December 31, 2016, the Company had two reportable operating segments: shopping centers and loan investments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker may review operational and financial data on a property basis and does not differentiate properties on a geographical basis for purposes of allocating resources or capital. The Company evaluates individual property performance primarily based on net operating income before depreciation, amortization and certain nonrecurring items. Each consolidated shopping center is considered a separate operating segment; however, each shopping center on a stand-alone basis represents less than 10% of revenues, profit or loss, and assets of the combined reported operating segment and meets the majority of the aggregations criteria under the applicable standard.

New Accounting Standards to Be Adopted

Revenue Recognition

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The objective of ASU No. 2014-09 is to establish a single comprehensive five-step model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers that will supersede most of the existing revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The core principle of this standard is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. ASU No. 2014-09 applies to all contracts with customers except those that are within the scope of other topics in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”). The new guidance is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods (including interim periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for annual reporting periods (including interim periods within those periods) beginning after December 15, 2016. Entities have the option of using either a full retrospective or modified approach to adopt ASU No. 2014-09. The Company has not yet selected the method of adoption.

The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. Most significantly for the real estate industry, leasing transactions are not within the scope of the new standard. A majority of the Company’s tenant-related revenue is recognized pursuant to lease agreements and will be governed by the recently issued leasing guidance discussed below. Excluding revenue related to leasing transactions, the Company anticipates that upon adoption of ASU No. 2014-09, the recognition of lease commission income earned pursuant to its management agreements with unconsolidated joint ventures most likely will be accelerated into an earlier quarter than recognized in current GAAP. The majority of the Company’s lease commission income is recognized 50% upon lease execution and 50% upon tenant rent commencement. Under the new standard, the Company anticipates that a lease commission will be recognized in its entirety upon lease execution. This revenue is not considered material to the Company’s financial statements.

F-13

Accounting for Leases

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). The amendments in this update govern a number of areas including, but not limited to, accounting for leases, replacing the existing guidance in Accounting Standards Codification No. 840, Leases. Under this standard, among other changes in practice, a lessee’s rights and obligations under most leases, including existing and new arrangements, would be recognized as assets and liabilities, respectively, on the balance sheet. Other significant provisions of this standard include (i) defining the “lease term” to include the noncancellable period together with periods for which there is a significant economic incentive for the lessee to extend or not terminate the lease; (ii) defining the initial lease liability to be recorded on the balance sheet to contemplate only those variable lease payments that depend on an index or that are in substance “fixed”,(iii) a dual approach for determining whether lease expense is recognized on a straight-line or accelerated basis, depending on whether the lessee is expected to consume more than an insignificant portion of the leased asset’s economic benefits and (iv) requirement to bifurcate certain lease and non-lease components. The lease standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, (including interim periods within those fiscal years) with early adoption permitted. The Company has not yet selected the method of adoption.

The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures. The Company has currently identified three areas within its accounting policies it believes could be impacted by the new standard. First, the Company may have a change in presentation on its consolidated statement of operations with regards to Recoveries from Tenants which includes reimbursements from tenants for certain operating expenses, real estate taxes and insurance. Tenant expense reimbursements with a service obligation are not covered within the scope of ASU No. 2016-02. The Company also has certain lease arrangements with its tenants for space at its shopping centers in which the contractual amounts due under the lease by the lessee are not allocated between the rental and expense reimbursement components (“Gross Leases”). The aggregate revenue earned under Gross Leases is presented as Minimum Rents in the consolidated statements of operations. As a result, the Company anticipates it will be required to bifurcate the presentation of certain expense reimbursements as well as allocate the fair value of the embedded revenue associated with these reimbursements for Gross Leases, which represent an immaterial portion of the Company’s lease portfolio, and separately present such amounts in its consolidated statements of operations based upon materiality. In addition, the Company has ground lease agreements in which the Company is the lessee for land underneath all or a portion of the buildings at five shopping centers (Note 9). Currently, the Company accounts for these arrangements as operating leases. Under the new standard, the Company will record its rights and obligations under these leases as an asset and liability on its consolidated balance sheets. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the inputs required to calculate the amount that will be recorded on its balance sheet for each ground lease. Lastly, this standard impacts the lessor’s ability to capitalize costs related to the leasing of vacant space. However, the Company does not believe this change will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Business Combinations

In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805). ASU No. 2015-16 provides guidance pertaining to entities that have reported provisional amounts for items in a business combination for which the accounting is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs and during the measurement period have an adjustment to provisional amounts recognized. The guidance requires that an acquirer recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. Any adjustments should be calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. The guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. In addition, in January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805) - Clarifying the Definition of a Business. ASU No. 2017-01 clarifies the definition and provides a more robust framework to use in determining when a set of assets and activities constitutes a business. ASU No. 2017-01 is intended to provide guidance when evaluating whether transactions should be accounted for as acquisitions (or disposals) of assets or businesses. The guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted for both standards. Application of the guidance is prospective.

The Company will early adopt the updated standard in the first quarter of 2017 with respect to its asset acquisitions. Under this new standard, the Company’s purchase of a shopping center is expected to be classified as an acquisition of an asset and not classified as an acquisition of a business. Transaction costs from the acquisition of a business are expensed as incurred, in contrast to transaction costs from the acquisition of an asset, which are capitalized to real estate assets upon acquisition. As a result, upon adoption of this new standard, the Company anticipates that the majority of the transaction costs incurred related to the acquisition of shopping centers will be capitalized to real estate assets (Note 3). However, the Company does not believe this change will have a material impact on its financial statements.

Statement of Cash Flows

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. ASU No. 2016-15 provides guidance on certain specific cash flow issues, including, but not limited to, debt prepayment or extinguishment costs, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination and distributions received from equity method investees. In addition, in November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic

F-14

230), Restricted Cash. ASU No. 2016-18 clarifies certain existing princi ples in ASC 230, including providing additional guidance related to transfers between cash and restricted cash and how entities present, in their statements of cash flows, the cash receipts and cash payments that directly affect the restricted cash account s. These standards are effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2017, and shall be applied retrospectively where practicable. Early adoption is permitted.

The Company will early adopt the updated standards in the first quarter of 2017. The adoption of these standards will modify the Company's current presentation of certain activities within the consolidated statements of cash flows and related disclosures, but they are not expected to have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

2. | Investments in and Advances to Joint Ventures

The Company’s equity method joint ventures, which are included in Investments in and Advances to Joint Ventures in the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2016, are as follows:

The covenants also require that the cumulative dividends declared or paid from December 31, 1993, through the end of the current period cannot exceed Funds From Operations (as defined in the agreement) plus an additional $20.0 million for the same period unless required to maintain REIT status. Interest is paid semiannually in arrears. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company was in compliance with all of the financial and other covenants under the indentures.

Total fees, excluding underwriting discounts, incurred by the Company for the issuance of senior notes were $2.0 million in 2015.

Senior Convertible Notes

In November 2015, the Company elected to redeem its senior convertible notes ($350.0 million aggregate principal amount outstanding at maturity), in their entirety, prior to maturity. The conversion price consisted of cash equal to the principal amount of the senior convertible notes and a premium paid in the Company’s common shares (equal to 9.0311 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of the senior convertible notes). The Company issued 3.2 million shares upon conversion of the convertible notes.

Unsecured Term Loan

The Company maintains a $400 million unsecured term loan with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and PNC Bank, National Association, as syndication agent (the “Unsecured Term Loan”). The Unsecured Term Loan has a maturity date of April 2017, with three one-year borrower options to extend upon the Company’s request, provided certain conditions are satisfied. The Company may increase the amount of the facility provided that lenders agree to certain terms. The outstanding principal amount under this credit facility may not exceed $600 million. The Unsecured Term Loan bears interest at variable rates based on LIBOR as defined in the loan agreements plus a specified spread based on the Company’s long-term senior unsecured debt rating (1.1% at December 31, 2016). The Company is required to comply with covenants similar to those contained in the Revolving Credit Facilities. The Company was in compliance with these financial covenants at December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Secured Term Loan

The Company maintains a collateralized term loan (the “Secured Term Loan”) with a syndicate of financial institutions, for which KeyBank National Association serves as the administrative agent. The Secured Term Loan matures in April 2017, which may be extended for one year to April 2018 at the Company’s option. Borrowings under the Secured Term Loan bear interest at variable rates based on LIBOR, as defined in the loan agreement, plus a specified spread (1.35% at December 31, 2016) based on the Company’s long-term senior unsecured debt rating. The collateral for the Secured Term Loan is real estate assets, or investment interests in certain assets, that are already encumbered by first mortgage loans. The Company is required to comply with covenants similar to those contained in the Revolving Credit Facilities. The Company was in compliance with these financial covenants at December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Mortgages Payable

Mortgages payable, collateralized by real estate with a net book value of $1.5 billion at December 31, 2016, and related tenant leases are generally due in monthly installments of principal and/or interest. Fixed contractual interest rates on mortgages payable range from approximately 3.4% to 9.8%.

8. | Financial Instruments and Fair Value Measurements

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures of financial instruments:

Measurement of Fair Value

At December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company used pay-fixed interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to changes in benchmark interest rates (the “Swaps”). The estimated fair values were determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments, which consider the impact of any credit enhancements to the contracts, are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential non-performance risk, including the Company’s own non-performance risk and the respective counterparty's

non-performance risk. The Company determined that the significant inputs used to value its derivatives fell within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Other Fair Value Instruments

Investments in unconsolidated joint ventures are considered financial assets. See discussion of fair value considerations of joint venture investments in Note 12.

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Restricted Cash, Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities

The carrying amounts reported in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets for these financial instruments approximated fair value because of their short-term maturities.

Notes Receivable and Advances to Affiliates

The fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis in which the Company uses unobservable inputs such as market interest rates determined by the loan to value and market capitalization rates related to the underlying collateral at which management believes similar loans would be made and classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of these notes was approximately $445.2 million and $441.5 million at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, as compared to the carrying amounts of $443.3 million and $437.6 million, respectively.

Debt

The fair market value of senior notes is determined using the trading price of the Company’s public debt. The fair market value for all other debt is estimated using a discounted cash flow technique that incorporates future contractual interest and principal payments and a market interest yield curve with adjustments for duration, optionality and risk profile, including the Company’s non-performance risk and loan to value. The Company’s senior notes and all other debt are classified as Level 2 and Level 3, respectively, in the fair value hierarchy.

F-22

Considerable judgment is necessary to develop estimated fair values of financial instruments. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amoun ts the Company could realize on disposition of the financial instruments.

Debt instruments with carrying values that are different than estimated fair values are summarized as follows (in thousands):

| December 31, 2016 |  |  | December 31, 2015 |
| Carrying Amount |  |  | Fair Value |  |  | Carrying Amount |  |  | Fair Value |
Senior Notes | $ | 2,913,217 |  |  | $ | 3,056,896 |  |  | $ | 3,149,188 |  |  | $ | 3,292,723 |
Revolving Credit Facilities and term loans |  | 598,242 |  |  |  | 601,131 |  |  |  | 807,185 |  |  |  | 811,666 |
Mortgage Indebtedness |  | 982,509 |  |  |  | 1,012,869 |  |  |  | 1,183,164 |  |  |  | 1,235,139 |
| $ | 4,493,968 |  |  | $ | 4,670,896 |  |  | $ | 5,139,537 |  |  | $ | 5,339,528 |

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of its debt funding and, from time to time, through the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the values of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s investments and borrowings.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company generally uses Swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. The Swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company had one effective Swap with a notional amount of $76.9 million and $78.5 million, respectively, expiring in September 2017, which converts LIBOR to a fixed rate of 2.8%. The fair value of the Swap was a liability of $1.0 million and $2.5 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, which is included in Other Liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated, and that qualify, as a cash flow hedge is recorded in Accumulated OCI and is subsequently reclassified into earnings, as interest expense, in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During 2016, such derivative was used to hedge the forecasted variable cash flows associated with existing or probable future obligations. The ineffective portion of the change in the fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings. During the three years ended December 31, 2016, the amount of hedge ineffectiveness recorded was not material.

The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by the counterparties to the Swaps if the derivative position has a positive balance. The Company believes it mitigates its credit risk by entering into Swaps with major financial institutions. The Company continually monitors and actively manages interest costs on its variable-rate debt portfolio and may enter into additional interest rate swap positions or other derivative interest rate instruments based on market conditions. The Company has not entered, and does not plan to enter, into any derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features

The Company has an agreement with its Swap counterparty that contains a provision whereby if the Company defaults on certain of its unsecured indebtedness the Company could also be declared in default on its Swap, resulting in an acceleration of payment under the Swap.

9. | Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Matters

The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to various legal proceedings, which, taken together, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company. The Company is also subject to a variety of legal actions for personal injury or property damage arising in the ordinary course of its business, most of which are covered by insurance. While the resolution of all matters

F-23

cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that the final outcome of such legal proceedings and claims will not ha ve a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, financial position or results of operations.

Commitments and Guaranties

In conjunction with the development and expansion of various shopping centers, the Company has entered into agreements with general contractors for the construction or redevelopment of shopping centers aggregating approximately $11.6 million as of December 31, 2016.

At December 31, 2016, the Company had letters of credit outstanding of $21.9 million. The Company has not recorded any obligation associated with these letters of credit. The majority of the letters of credit are collateral for existing indebtedness and other obligations of the Company.

In connection with the sale of the Company’s interest in a former unconsolidated joint venture (Note 2), the Company retained its pro rata guarantee obligation to fund amounts due to the joint venture’s lender, aggregating $4.5 million at December 31, 2016, under certain circumstances, until the loan matures in October 2020 if such amounts are not paid by the joint venture. The principal of the former joint venture partner is obligated to indemnify the Company in the event that the Company is required to make any payment in connection with this pro rata guarantee obligation and, accordingly, the Company did not record any liability related to this guarantee.

Leases

The Company is engaged in the operation of shopping centers that are either owned or, with respect to certain shopping centers, operated under long-term ground leases that expire at various dates through 2070, with renewal options. Space in the shopping centers is leased to tenants pursuant to agreements that provide for terms generally ranging from one month to 30 years and, in some cases, for annual rentals subject to upward adjustments based on operating expense levels, sales volume or contractual increases as defined in the lease agreements.

The scheduled future minimum rental revenues from rental properties under the terms of all non-cancelable tenant leases, assuming no new or renegotiated leases or option extensions for such premises and the scheduled minimum rental payments under the terms of all non-cancelable operating leases, principally ground leases, in which the Company is the lessee as of December 31, 2016, are as follows (in thousands):

Year |  | Minimum Rental Revenues |  |  | Minimum Rental Payments |

12. | Impairment Charges and Impairment of Joint Venture Investments

The Company recorded impairment charges based on the difference between the carrying value of the assets or investments and the estimated fair market value as follows (in millions):

| For the Year Ended December 31, |
| 2016 |  |  | 2015 |  |  | 2014 |
Assets marketed for sale or assets sold(A) | $ | 110.9 |  |  | $ | 179.7 |  |  | $ | 10.6 |
Undeveloped land previously held for development(B) |  | — |  |  |  | 99.3 |  |  |  | 18.6 |
Total continuing operations | $ | 110.9 |  |  | $ | 279.0 |  |  | $ | 29.2 |
Sold assets – discontinued operations |  | — |  |  |  | — |  |  |  | 8.9 |
Joint venture investments(C) |  | — |  |  |  | 1.9 |  |  |  | 30.7 |
Total impairment charges | $ | 110.9 |  |  | $ | 280.9 |  |  | $ | 68.8 |

(A) | The Company recorded impairment charges in 2015 and 2016 triggered by changes in its strategic plan that impacted its asset hold-period assumptions. During 2015, management accelerated the Company’s portfolio quality improvement initiative, which it intended to accomplish in part through the disposition of less strategic assets. The disposition initiative triggered the recording of impairment charges on 25 operating shopping centers. In 2016, in conjunction with the change of the Chief Executive Officer, the Company’s management and Board of Directors decided to increase the volume of near-term asset sales beyond the level contemplated in 2015 primarily to accelerate progress on its deleveraging goal. As a result, the decision to accelerate sales triggered the recording of impairment charges on 20 operating shopping centers that management identified as short-term disposition candidates. The impairment charges recorded in 2014 were triggered primarily by the Company’s marketing of certain assets for sale and management’s then-assessment of the likelihood and timing of potential transactions.

(B) | Amounts recorded primarily were related to land previously held for future development. The impairments were triggered primarily by the decision made by the Company’s senior management to sell the land and no longer consider development alternatives.

(C) | Represents “other than temporary impairment” charges on unconsolidated joint venture investments. Amount recorded in 2014 represents a charge on a joint venture development project in Canada. The impairment primarily was triggered as a result of a major retailer’s decision to exit the Canadian market, as well as changes in the timing of the project and development assumptions.

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Company is required to assess the fair value of certain impaired consolidated and unconsolidated joint venture investments. The valuation of impaired real estate assets and investments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each asset, as well as the income capitalization approach considering prevailing market capitalization rates, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, actual sales negotiations and bona fide purchase offers received from third parties and/or consideration of the amount that currently would be required to replace the asset, as adjusted for obsolescence. In general, the Company considers multiple valuation techniques when measuring fair value of an investment. However, in certain circumstances, a single valuation technique may be appropriate.

For operational real estate assets, the significant assumptions included the capitalization rate used in the income capitalization valuation as well as the projected property net operating income. For projects under development or not at stabilization, the significant assumptions included the discount rate, the timing and the estimated costs for the construction completion and project stabilization, projected net operating income and the exit capitalization rate. For investments in unconsolidated joint ventures, the Company also considered the valuation of any underlying joint venture debt. These valuation adjustments were calculated based on market conditions and assumptions made by management at the time the valuation adjustments were recorded, which may differ materially from actual results if market conditions or the underlying assumptions change.

F-26

The following table presents information about the Company’s impairment charges on both financial and nonfinancial ass ets that were measured on a fair value basis for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014. The table also indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques used by the Company to determine such fair value (in millions).

(A) | Fair value measurements based upon indicative bids were developed by third-party sources (including offers and comparable sales values), subject to the Company’s corroboration for reasonableness. The Company does not have access to certain unobservable inputs used by these third parties to determine these estimated fair values.

(B) | Vacant space in certain assets was valued based on a price per square foot.

13. | Disposition of Real Estate and Real Estate Investments and Discontinued Operations

Effective January 1, 2015, the Company adopted guidance from the FASB that changed the criteria for determining which disposals are presented as discontinued operations. As a result, most individual property disposals do not qualify for discontinued operations presentation, and thus, the results of the properties that have been sold since January 1, 2015, remain in Income from Continuing Operations, and any associated gains or losses from the disposition are included in Gain on Disposition of Real Estate.

During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company sold 33 properties and 29 properties, respectively, and various land parcels. These sales have not been classified as discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, as these sales do not represent a strategic shift in the Company’s business plan (Note 1).

Discontinued Operations

The Company sold 35 properties in 2014 that are included in discontinued operations. The following table provides a summary of revenues and expenses from the properties included in discontinued operations (Note 1) (in thousands):

14. | Transactions with Related Parties

Transactions with the Company’s equity affiliates are described in Note 2.

As discussed in Note 2, on April 28, 2014, affiliates of DDR sold to Mr. Alexander Otto (the “Investor”) and certain of his affiliates (collectively with the Investor, the “Purchasers”) the Company’s 50% ownership interest in SSB for approximately $343.6 million, which represented the Company’s entire investment in Brazil. The Investor was deemed to be a related party in 2014 as a result of his common stock ownership in DDR. Furthermore, Dr. Finne, a director of DDR, is a Managing Director of certain entities affiliated with the Investor that purchased a portion of the Company’s ownership interest in SSB. The Company believed that the sales price and other terms of the transaction were negotiated on terms equivalent to those prevailing in an arms’ length transaction. The transaction was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, with the two board members recommended for nomination by the Investor recusing themselves.

15. | Stock-Based Compensation Plans and Employee Benefits

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company’s equity-based award plans provide for grants to Company employees and directors of incentive and non-qualified options to purchase common shares, rights to receive the appreciation in value of common shares, awards of common shares subject to restrictions on transfer, awards of common shares issuable in the future upon satisfaction of certain conditions and rights to purchase common shares and other awards based on common shares. Under the terms of the plans, awards available for grant were 5.8 million common shares at December 31, 2016.

Stock Options

Stock options may be granted at per-share prices not less than fair market value at the date of grant and must be exercised within the maximum contractual term of 10 years thereof. Options granted under the plans generally vest over three years in one-third increments, beginning one year after the date of grant.

Restricted Share Awards and Units

The Board of Directors approved grants to executives of the Company of restricted common share units (“RSUs”) of 0.5 million in 2016 and restricted common share awards (“RSAs”) of 0.2 million and 0.3 million in 2015 and 2014, respectively. The restricted stock grants generally vest in equal annual amounts over a four-year period. RSUs have the same cash dividends as other common stock. RSAs have the same cash dividend and voting rights as other common stock and are considered to be currently issued and outstanding. These grants have a weighted-average fair value at the date of grant ranging from $12.17 to $19.26, which was equal to the market value of the Company’s common shares at the date of grant. As a component of compensation to the Company’s non-employee directors, the Company issued 0.1 million common shares to the non-employee directors in each of the three years ended December 31, 2016. These grants were issued equal to the market value of the Company’s common shares at the date of grant and immediately vested upon grant.

In 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors approved and adopted the Value Sharing Equity Program (the “2013 VSEP”) and the grant of awards to certain of the Company’s executives. The final measurement date for the 2013 VSEP was December 31, 2015. These award grants are reflected as restricted stock and vest in equal annual amounts through December 31, 2018.

2016 Value Sharing Equity Program

In 2016, the Company adopted the 2016 Value Sharing Equity Program (the “2016 VSEP”), and performance awards under the VSEP were granted to certain officers. Awards under the 2016 VSEP, if earned, may result in the granting of common shares of the Company and time-vested RSUs to participants on future measurement dates based on a performance period beginning on February 9, 2016 and ending on December 31, 2018 (the “Performance Period”). As a result, in general, the total compensation available to participants under the 2016 VSEP, if any, will be fully earned only after approximately seven years (the Performance Period and the final four-year, time-based vesting period for RSUs).

The 2016 VSEP was designed to allow the Company to reward participants for contributing to its financial performance and to allow such participants to share in “Value Created” (as defined below), based upon increases in DDR’s adjusted market capitalization over an initial market capitalization, using a starting share price of $17.41 per share (the “Starting Share Price”), over pre-established periods. Participants are granted performance-based awards which, if earned, are settled 20% in DDR common shares and 80% in RSUs that are generally subject to time-based vesting requirements for a period of four years.

Pursuant to the award terms, on five specified measurement dates (occurring on February 23, 2017, June 30, 2017, December 31, 2017, June 30, 2018 and December 31, 2018), DDR will measure the “Value Created” during the period between the start of the 2016 VSEP and the applicable measurement date. Value Created is measured for each period for the performance awards as the increase in DDR’s market capitalization on the applicable measurement date (i.e., the product of DDR’s five-day trailing average share price as of each measurement date (price-only appreciation, not total shareholder return) and the number of shares outstanding as of the measurement date), as adjusted for equity issuances and/or equity repurchases, over DDR’s initial market capitalization at the start of the 2016 VSEP utilizing the Starting Share Price. The ending share price used for purposes of determining Value Created for the performance awards during any measurement period is capped at $25.35 (“Maximum Ending Share Price”). Because DDR’s initial

F-30

market capitalization is based on the Starting Share Price, there are no performance awards earned until DDR’s share price exceeds $17.41.

Each participant has been assigned a “percentage share” of the Value Created for the performance awards, and the aggregate percentage share for all participants for the performance awards is 1.4909%. In addition, each participant’s aggregate total share of Value Created for the performance awards is capped at an individual maximum dollar limit. After the first measurement date, each participant may earn “performance award shares” (settled as discussed below) with an aggregate value equal to two-sixths of the participant’s percentage share of the Value Created for this award. After each of the next three measurement dates, each participant may earn performance award shares with an aggregate value equal to three-sixths, then four-sixths and then five-sixths of the participant’s percentage share of the Value Created for this award. After the final measurement date (or, if earlier, upon a change in control, as defined in the 2016 VSEP), each participant may earn performance award shares with an aggregate value equal to the participant’s full percentage share of the Value Created. In addition, for each measurement date, the number of performance award shares earned by a participant will be reduced by the number of performance award shares previously earned by the participant for prior measurement periods.

Unless otherwise determined by DDR, the DDR common shares subject to awards earned under the performance awards will generally be subject to additional service-based restrictions that are expected to lapse in 20% annual increments on (or within 60 days after) the applicable measurement date and on each of the first four anniversaries of the applicable measurement date. After vesting, RSUs will be paid in the form of one common share for each such vested RSU. The fair value of the 2016 VSEP grants was estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo approach model based on the following assumptions:

| Range |
Risk-free interest rate |  | 0.8% |
Weighted-average dividend yield |  | 5.0% |
Expected life | 3 years |
Expected volatility | 17%–19% |

Summary of Unvested Share Awards

The following table reflects the activity for the unvested awards pursuant to all restricted stock grants and grants pursuant to the 2013 VSEP plans for the year ended December 31, 2016:

| Awards (Thousands) |  |  | Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value |
Unvested at December 31, 2015 |  | 742 |  |  | $ | 17.03 |

Vested |  | (459 | ) |  |  | 16.35 |
Forfeited |  | (286 | ) |  |  | 17.40 |
Unvested at December 31, 2016 |  | 459 |  |  | $ | 16.74 |

As of December 31, 2016, total unrecognized compensation for the restricted awards granted under the plans as summarized above was $10.9 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average 2.5-year term, which includes the performance-based and time-based vesting periods.

Deferred Compensation Plans

The Company maintains a 401(k) defined contribution plan covering substantially all of the officers and employees of the Company in accordance with the provisions of the Code. Also, for certain officers, the Company maintains the Elective Deferred Compensation Plan and DDR Corp. Equity Deferred Compensation Plan, both non-qualified plans, which permit the deferral of base salaries, commissions and annual performance-based cash bonuses or receipt of restricted shares. In addition, directors of the Company are permitted to defer all or a portion of their fees pursuant to the Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan, a non-qualified plan. All of these plans were fully funded at December 31, 2016.

Basic average shares outstanding do not include restricted shares totaling 0.5 million, 0.7 million and 1.2 million that were not vested at December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively (Note 15).

The following potentially dilutive securities were considered in the calculation of EPS:

Potentially Dilutive Securities

| • | Options to purchase 1.8 million, 2.8 million and 3.0 million common shares were outstanding at December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, respectively (Note 15). These outstanding options were not considered in the computation of diluted EPS for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, as the options were anti-dilutive due to the Company’s loss from continuing operations.

| • | Shares subject to issuance under the Company’s 2016 VSEP (Note 15) were not considered in the computation of diluted EPS for the year ended December 31, 2016, as the calculation was anti-dilutive. The 2016 VSEP was not outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, and accordingly was not considered in the calculations.

| • | The exchange into common shares associated with OP Units was not included in the computation of diluted shares outstanding for all periods presented because the effect of assuming conversion was anti-dilutive (Note 10).

F-32

| • | Shares subject to issuance under the Company’s 2013 VSEP were not considered in the computation of diluted EPS for the year ended December 31, 2014, as the calculation was anti-dilut ive. The final measurement date for the 2013 VSEP was December 31, 2015, and accordingly not dilutive.

| • | The Company’s senior convertible notes due 2040 were not included in the computation of diluted EPS for the year ended December 31, 2014, due to the Company’s loss from continuing operations. These notes were repaid in 2015 (Note 7). The senior convertible notes had a conversion price of $14.85 at December 31, 2014.

17. | Income Taxes

The Company elected to be treated as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1993. To qualify as a REIT, the Company must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that the Company distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders. It is management’s current intention to adhere to these requirements and maintain the Company’s REIT status. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to corporate level federal income tax on taxable income it distributes to its shareholders. As the Company distributed sufficient taxable income for each of the three years ended December 31, 2016, no U.S. federal income or excise taxes were incurred.

If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any alternative minimum tax) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for the four subsequent taxable years. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain foreign, state and local taxes on its income and property and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income. In addition, the Company has a TRS that is subject to federal, state and local income taxes on any taxable income generated from its operational activity.

In order to maintain its REIT status, the Company must meet certain income tests to ensure that its gross income consists of passive income and not income from the active conduct of a trade or business. The Company utilizes its TRS to the extent certain fee and other miscellaneous non-real estate-related income cannot be earned by the REIT.

The tax cost basis of assets was $9.8 billion and $10.6 billion at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014, the Company recorded a net payment of $1.0 million, $1.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively, related to taxes. The net payment for the year ended December 31, 2015, does not include the 2015 Puerto Rico tax prepayment of $20.2 million. These amounts reflect taxes paid to federal and state authorities for franchise and other taxes.

In 2015, in accordance with temporary legislation of the Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code, the Company made a voluntary election to prepay $20.2 million of taxes related to the built-in gains associated with the real estate assets in Puerto Rico and restructured the ownership of its 14 assets in Puerto Rico. The net balance sheet impact to the financial statements related to the restructuring was $16.8 million. The Company recorded a tax expense of $3.4 million related to the 2% effective tax rate spread between the 12% tax payment and the 10% withholding tax rate. This election permitted the Company to step up its tax basis in the Puerto Rican assets to the current estimated fair value while reducing its effective capital gains tax rate from 29% to 12%. In addition, effective January 1, 2015, the Company entered into a closing agreement with the Puerto Rico Secretary of Treasury that now treats the Company as a Puerto Rico REIT, eliminating the requirement to record current and deferred income taxes for 2015 and forward. To the extent the Company qualifies as a REIT under the IRS guidelines, the Company will not be subject to income tax. However, taxable distributions made to its shareholders will be subject to a 10% withholding tax, which is treated as additional dividend/equity and not an income tax on the Company’s financial statements. The Puerto Rico prepaid tax of $16.2 million at December 31, 2016, is included in Other Assets (Note 5).

The following represents the combined activity of the Company’s TRS and its taxable activity in Puerto Rico (in thousands):
