Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors and Stockholders
Cedar Shopping Centers, Inc.
We have audited the combined statement of revenues and certain expenses of those certain properties of WP Realty, Inc. (the “Properties”) for the year ended December 31, 2004. The combined financial statement is the responsibility of the Properties’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this combined financial statement 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 financial statement 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 financial statement, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall combined financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
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 Properties’ combined revenues and certain expenses.
In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects, the combined revenues and certain expenses of the Properties as described in Note 1 for the year ended December 31, 2004, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Notes to the Combined Statements of Revenues and Certain Expenses
For the year ended December 31, 2004
For the nine months ended September 30, 2005 (unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation
Presented herein are the combined statements of revenues and certain expenses related to the operations of two supermarket anchored shopping centers located in New Bedford, Massachusetts and Wethersfield, Connecticut, (the “Properties”). The Properties contain approximately 376,000 square feet of gross leasable area. Cedar Shopping Centers, Inc. (the “Company”) acquired the Properties in November and December 2005, pursuant to the terms of Purchase and Sale Agreements. The two properties are under common ownership therefore the statements presented are combined.
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 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 leases. The excess of rents recognized over amounts contractually due pursuant to the underlying leases was approximately $189,000 and $146,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 (unaudited), respectively.
4. Property Operating Expenses
Property operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2004 include approximately $91,000 for insurance, $97,000 for snow removal, $130,000 for utilities, $259,000 for repair and maintenance costs, $42,000 for professional fees and $45,000 for other costs.
Property operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 (unaudited) include approximately $66,000 for insurance, $231,000 for snow removal, $116,000 for utilities, $206,000 for repair and maintenance costs, $24,000 for professional fees and $101,000 for other costs.
5. Management Fees — Related Party
The Properties were managed by WP Realty, a related third party, pursuant to management agreements. Management fees of approximately $241,000 for the year ended December 31, 2004 and $186,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 (unaudited) were incurred. The management agreements provided for a monthly management fee of 4% of cash receipts and an asset management fee of approximately $4,600 per month.
6. Significant Tenants
Significant tenants include Shaw’s Supermarket and Stop & Shop, which constituted approximately 23% and 28%, respectively, of base rents for the year ended December 31, 2004 and 24% and 24%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 (unaudited).
