TOYS “R” US PROPERTY COMPANY I, LLC AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of presentation
As used herein, the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” means Toys “R” Us Property Company I, LLC and its subsidiaries (“TRU Propco I”), except as expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires. TRU Propco I was formed on September 15, 2005 as part of a legal reorganization of the businesses of Toys “R” Us, Inc. (“TRU”). TRU operates or licenses Toys “R” Us and Babies “R” Us stores in the United States and foreign countries and jurisdictions. We are indirectly owned by TRU through our holding company, Wayne Real Estate Holding Company, LLC ("Wayne Holdings"), a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of TRU. We generate substantially all of our revenues, earnings and cash flows by leasing or subleasing properties primarily to our affiliate, Toys "R" Us-Delaware, Inc. ("Toys-Delaware").
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of July 30, 2011 and January 29, 2011, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows and the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Changes in Member’s Capital for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, have been prepared by us in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim reporting, and in accordance with the requirements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are unaudited and are subject to year-end adjustments. In the opinion of management, the financial statements include all known adjustments (which consist primarily of normal, recurring accruals, estimates and assumptions that impact the financial statements) necessary to present fairly the financial position at the balance sheet dates and the results of operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks then ended. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at January 29, 2011, presented herein, has been derived from our audited balance sheet included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2011, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and footnotes thereto included within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2011. The results of operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the full year.
Prior Period Corrections
We have corrected the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet previously reported as of July 31, 2010 to reflect certain related party reimbursements and third party liabilities, since we are the primary obligor and no legal right of offset existed. As such, although not presented herein, we have increased Current assets and liabilities by approximately $16 million to correctly present these immaterial items. The items included primarily represent third party rent, property taxes and certain operating expenses which are paid directly by Toys-Delaware to the respective third party. The correction had no effect on our previously reported Results of Operations, Member’s Capital and no net effect on Cash Flows.
In addition, in the second quarter of fiscal 2010, we recorded an approximate $8 million adjustment to increase Deferred third party rent liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet to correct a cumulative prior period straight-line lease accounting error. A portion of this correction related to the understatement of straight-line lease expense that occurred prior to the fiscal 2005 reorganization transactions when the related assets were sold to us from affiliates. As a result, the carrying value of the net assets sold to us during these transactions was overstated by approximately $6 million and was recorded as a reduction of Member’s Capital. The remaining portion of the correction of approximately $2 million increased Rental expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. In addition, in connection with our master lease agreement, a corresponding correcting adjustment was recorded of approximately $2 million to increase Base rents on the Condensed
Consolidated Statement of Operations and Straight-line rent receivable from affiliates on the Condensed Consolidated
Balance Sheet for the period subsequent to the fiscal 2005 reorganization. Management concluded that this correction did not have a material impact for the thirteen or twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2010 or any previously reported financial statements.

During the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011, we sold two owned properties to third parties for gross proceeds of approximately $8 million, resulting in a net gain of less than $1 million. Additionally, the master lease agreement requires Toys-Delaware to make a payment to the Company upon termination of the lease in conjunction with the successful execution of the sale of such properties by the Company to a third party if the proceeds from the sale are less than the net present value of the base rent for such property over the remaining term for such property, discounted at 10% per annum. We recorded a termination payment of approximately $4 million for the properties sold during the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011, in Earnings from discontinued operations on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Net properties held for sale
Assets held for sale represent assets owned by us that our management has committed to sell in the near term. The following assets are classified as held for sale:

During the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011, we sold two properties, one of which was classified as held for sale. The property which was previously classified as held for sale, was sold to an unrelated third party for gross proceeds of approximately $3 million, which resulted in a nominal loss.

3. Discontinued operations

During fiscal 2010, we classified three owned properties as assets held for sale, one of which was sold in fiscal 2010 and one of which was sold in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. Additionally, during the first quarter of fiscal 2011, we sold one owned property to a third party not previously classified as assets held for sale during fiscal 2010. Refer to Note 2 entitled "Real estate, net" for further details regarding the properties sold in fiscal 2011 and corresponding termination payments.

We reported the operating results for these properties as Earnings from discontinued operations in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010. The operating results for these properties classified as discontinued operations through July 30, 2011 were derived from our historical financial information and have been segregated from continuing operations and reported separately in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, respectively.

4. Long-term debt
As of July 30, 2011 and January 29, 2011, the carrying value of our debt was $930 million and $929 million, respectively, with fair values of approximately $1,076 million and $1,090 million, respectively. The fair value of our long-term debt was estimated based on a quoted market price and other pertinent information available to management as of the end of the respective periods.
In accordance with the indenture governing the 10.75% senior unsecured notes due fiscal 2017 (the "Notes"), we commenced a tender offer on May 13, 2011 to purchase up to an aggregate principal amount of approximately $25 million of the Notes for cash. The tender offer expired on June 13, 2011, with no holders opting to tender at that time.
Refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details on indebtedness.
5 . Member’s capital
Wayne Holdings, is the direct owner of 100% of our limited liability company interests. We evaluate our cash balances on an ongoing basis and periodically distribute cash to our parent companies. From time to time, a portion of our cash may also be used to tender for a portion of the outstanding Notes as permitted by the indenture governing the Notes. If holders of the Notes elect not to tender their Notes, we may, at such time, in accordance with the indenture governing the Notes, make certain restricted payments, including distributing cash to TRU.
In accordance with the indenture governing the Notes, we commenced a tender offer on May 13, 2011 to purchase up to an aggregate principal amount of approximately $25 million of the Notes for cash. The tender offer expired on June 13, 2011, with no holders opting to tender at that time. Therefore, as permitted by the indenture, we made cash distributions of approximately $25 million to TRU on June 20, 2011.
During the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011, we made cash distributions of $29 million and $13 million in dividends and return of capital, respectively, which includes the cash distributions of approximately $25 million to TRU on June 20, 2011 related to the expired tender offer. During the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2010, we made cash distributions of $22 million and $20 million in dividends and return of capital, respectively.
6. Related party transactions
Rental Revenues
Our rental revenue is derived from payments received under the leasing arrangements we have entered into with Toys-Delaware. The master lease agreement provides for Toys-Delaware to reimburse us for property related costs including, among others, real estate taxes and common area maintenance charges. Some of these costs are directly paid by Toys-Delaware and are recorded as both an expense and a tenant reimbursement. During the thirteen weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, we earned related party Base rent revenues of approximately $60 million and $64 million, respectively. During the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, we earned related party Base rent revenues of approximately $121 million and $126 million, respectively. In addition, we recorded Tenant reimbursements of approximately $10 million under our leasing

7

arrangements with Toys-Delaware during each of the thirteen weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010. During the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, we recorded Tenant reimbursements of approximately $21 million, respectively.
Management Service Fees
Toys-Delaware provides a majority of the centralized corporate functions, including accounting, human resources, legal, tax and treasury services to TRU, other affiliates and us under a Domestic Services Agreement (“Agreement”). The costs are based on a formula for each affiliate, as defined in the Agreement, and are recorded in Other operating expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the thirteen weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, the amounts charged to us for these services were $1 million, respectively. During the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011 and July 31, 2010, the amounts charged to us for these services were $2 million, respectively.
7. Due from affiliate, net
As of July 30, 2011 and January 29, 2011, Due from affiliate, net of $10 million and $7 million, respectively, primarily represents Base rents and certain property reimbursements owed to us by Toys-Delaware.
8. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs” (“ASU 2011-04”). The amendments in this ASU generally represent clarification of Topic 820, but also include instances where a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements has changed. This update results in common principles and requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). The amendments are effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and are to be applied prospectively. Early application is not permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2011-04 will have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 2.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
As used herein the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” means Toys “R” Us Property Company I, LLC and its subsidiaries (“TRU Propco I”), except as expressly indicated or unless the content otherwise requires. The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help facilitate an understanding of our financial condition and our historical results of operations for the periods presented. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2011 and Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes thereto, and contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Forward-Looking Statements” below.
Our Business
We are a special purpose entity, owned indirectly by Toys “R” Us, Inc. (“TRU”). Certain of our wholly-owned special purpose subsidiaries own fee and leasehold interests in 354 properties in various retail markets throughout the United States. Under an operating company/property company structure, we lease these properties to Toys “R” Us – Delaware, Inc. (“Toys-Delaware”) on a triple-net basis, the operating entity for all of TRU’s North American businesses. Substantially all of our revenues and cash flows are derived from payments from Toys-Delaware under the Amended and Restated Master Lease Agreement (the “TRU Propco I Master Lease”). For quarterly financial statements and other information about our master tenant, Toys-Delaware, see Exhibit 99.1 to this report.

compared to earnings of $0.1 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2010. The increase was primarily due to a termination payment of approximately $2.2 million from Toys-Delaware as required under the TRU Propco I Master Lease for a property sold in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. See Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements entitled “Discontinued operations” for further details.
Earnings from discontinued operations increased by $4.7 million to $5.0 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011, compared to earnings of $0.3 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2010. The increase was primarily due to termination payments of approximately $3.9 million from Toys-Delaware as required under the TRU Propco I Master Lease for two properties sold during the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011. In addition, we recorded a net gain of approximately $0.4 million from the sale of these two properties during the same period. See Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements entitled “Discontinued operations” for further details.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
As of July 30, 2011, we were in compliance with all of our covenants related to the 10.75% senior unsecured notes due fiscal 2017 (the “Notes”).
Our largest source of operating cash flows is cash collections from our lessees. In general, we utilize our cash to service debt, pay normal operating costs and at the discretion of our sole member, based on the recommendation of our management, and as permitted by the indenture governing the Notes, declare and pay dividends. From time to time, a portion of our cash may also be used to tender a portion of the outstanding Notes as permitted by the indenture governing the Notes. Refer to Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements entitled “Long-term debt” for further details regarding the tender of the Notes. We have been able to meet our cash needs principally by using cash on hand and cash flows from operations and we believe that cash from operations along with existing cash will be sufficient to fund expected cash flow requirements for the next twelve months.

Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities
During the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011, net cash provided by operating activities was $38.2 million compared to $34.0 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2010. The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to termination payments received of approximately $3.9 million from Toys-Delaware as required under the TRU Propco I Master Lease for the properties sold during the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011.
Cash Flows Provided by Investing Activities
During the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011, net cash provided by investing activities was $7.4 million compared to $0.9 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2010. The increase in net cash provided by investing activities was primarily due to an increase of $7.0 million of proceeds from the sale of real estate, partially offset by an increase in capital expenditures of $0.5 million.
Cash Flows Used in Financing Activities
During the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2011, net cash used in financing activities was $41.6 million compared to $41.7 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2010. The decrease in net cash used in financing activities was primarily due to an increase in debt, partially offset by an increase in distributions.
Debt
Refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-K and Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements entitled “Long-term debt” for further details regarding our debt.

In accordance with the indenture governing the Notes, we commenced a tender offer on May 13, 2011 to purchase up to an aggregate principal amount of approximately $25 million of the Notes for cash. The tender offer expired on June 13, 2011, with no holders opting to tender at that time. Therefore, as permitted by the indenture, we made cash distributions of approximately $25 million to TRU on June 20, 2011.
Contractual Obligations and Commitments
Our contractual obligations consist mainly of payments related to Long-term debt and related interest and operating leases related to real estate used in the operation of our business. Refer to the “Contractual Obligations and Commitments” section of the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2011, for details on our contractual obligations and commitments.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and during the applicable periods. We base these estimates on historical experience and on other factors that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions and could have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Refer to the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2011, for a discussion of critical accounting policies.

Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains “forward looking” statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created thereby. All statements herein or therein that are not historical facts, including statements about our beliefs or expectations, are forward-looking statements. We generally identify these statements by words or phrases, such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “plan,” “expect,” “believe,” “intend,” “foresee,” “will,” “may,” and similar words or phrases. These statements discuss, among other things, our strategy, future financial or operational performance, anticipated cost savings, results of restructurings, cash flows generated from operating activities, anticipated developments, future financings, targets and future occurrences and trends.
These statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, including, among others, competition in the retail industry, seasonality of Toys-Delaware’s business, changes in consumer preferences and consumer spending patterns, general economic conditions in the United States and other countries in which Toys-Delaware conducts its business, Toys-Delaware’s ability to implement its strategy, our, Toys-Delaware’s and TRU’s respective substantial levels of indebtedness and related debt-service obligations and the covenants in their and our respective debt agreements, availability of adequate financing to us, Toys-Delaware and TRU, Toys-Delaware’s dependence on key vendors of merchandise, international events affecting the delivery of toys and other products to Toys-Delaware’s stores, and such risks, uncertainties and factors set forth under Item 1A entitled “RISK FACTORS” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on April 29, 2011 and in our reports and documents filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (which reports and documents should be read in conjunction with this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q). We believe that all forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions when made; however, we caution that it is impossible to predict actual results or outcomes or the effects of risks, uncertainties or other factors on anticipated results or outcomes and that, accordingly, one should not place undue reliance on these statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they were made, and we undertake no obligation to update these statements in light of subsequent events or developments. Actual results and outcomes may differ materially from anticipated results or outcomes discussed in any forward-looking statement.

Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Disclosure controls and procedures are the controls and other procedures that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that

11

information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including the principal executive and principal financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
We have evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officer, the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Based on that evaluation, our principal executive and principal financial officer has concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to accomplish their objectives at the reasonable assurance level.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the second quarter of fiscal 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
