Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors and Shareholders
Cedar Shopping Centers, Inc.
We have audited the combined statement of revenues and certain expenses of Aston Shopping Center, Bloomsburg Shopping Center, McConnellsburg Shopping Center, Wyomissing Shopping Center and Parkway Plaza (the “Properties”) for the year ended December 31, 2006. The combined statement of revenues and certain expenses is the responsibility of Cedar Shopping Centers, Inc.’s (the “Company”) management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this combined statement of revenues and certain expenses based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the combined statement of revenues and certain expenses is free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Properties’ internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Properties’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the combined statement of revenues and certain expenses, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall combined statement of revenues and certain expenses presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
As discussed in Note 1, the accompanying combined statement of revenues and certain expenses was prepared for the purpose of complying with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission for inclusion in Form 8-K of Cedar Shopping Centers, Inc. and is not intended to be a complete presentation of the combined revenues and certain expenses of the Properties.
In our opinion, the statement of revenues and certain expense referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the combined statement of revenues and certain expenses of the Properties as described in Note 1 for the year ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to Combined Statements of Revenues and Certain Expenses
For the year ended December 31, 2006
For the three months ended March 31, 2007 (unaudited)
1.   Basis of Presentation
          Presented herein are the combined statements of revenues and certain expenses of Aston Shopping Center, Bloomsburg Shopping Center, McConnellsburg Shopping Center, Wyomissing Shopping Center and Parkway Plaza, which as a whole comprise the operations of five supermarket-anchored shopping centers located in Aston, Pennsylvania (a/k/a Aston Center), Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania (a/k/a Bloomsburg Center), McConnellsburg, Pennsylvania (a/k/a McConnellsburg Center), Wyomissing, Pennsylvania (a/k/a Wyomissing Center) and Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania (a/k/a Parkway Plaza), collectively, the “Properties.” The Properties contain approximately 353,000 square feet of gross leasable area. Cedar Shopping Centers, Inc. (the “Company”) acquired the properties on April 4, 2007 pursuant to the terms of a Purchase and Sale Agreement. The Properties’ financial statements have been combined since the Properties were (1) acquired from the same seller and (2) were under common control and management.
          The accompanying combined financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission for the acquisition of real estate properties. Accordingly, the combined financial statements exclude certain expenses because they may not be comparable to those expected to be incurred in the proposed future operations of the Properties. Items excluded consist primarily of interest expense and depreciation and amortization expense, which are not directly related to future operations.
2.   Use of Estimates
          The preparation of the combined statements of revenues and certain expenses in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the statements of revenues and certain expenses and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
3.   Revenue Recognition
          The Properties are being leased to tenants under operating leases. Minimum rental income is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. The excess of rents recognized over amounts contractually due pursuant to the underlying leases was approximately $352,000 and $86,000, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2006 and for the three months ended March 31, 2007 (unaudited).
4.   Property Operating Expenses
          Property operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2006 include approximately $88,000 for repairs and maintenance, $83,000 for landscaping, $59,000 for insurance, $33,000 for professional fees, $13,000 for utilities, $12,000 for snow removal, and $11,000 for other expenses.
          Property operating expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2007 (unaudited) include approximately $42,000 for snow removal, $33,000 for repairs and maintenance, $14,000 for professional fees, $12,000 for insurance expense, $6,000 for utilities, $6,000 for landscaping, and $3,000 for other expenses
5.   Management Fees – Related Party
          The Properties were managed by Caldwell Development Company LLC, a related party to the seller, pursuant to management agreements, which provided for management fees of 2.5% of cash receipts. Management fees of approximately $180,000 for the year ended December 31, 2006 and $42,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2007 (unaudited) were incurred
6.   Significant Tenants
          The Giant Foods supermarkets constituted approximately 86% of base rents for the year ended December 31, 2006, and 86% of base rents for the three months ended March 31, 2007 (unaudited).

          The lease agreements generally contain provisions for reimbursement of real estate taxes and operating expenses, on a pro rata basis, as well as for fixed increases in base rents.
8.   Interim Unaudited Financial Information
          The combined statement of revenues and certain expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2007 is unaudited; however, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the combined statement of revenues and certain expenses for this interim period have been included. The results of the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for a full fiscal year.
