Revenue for the 2nd quarter was $1,206,000 compared to $763,000 last year. The increase in revenue quarter over quarter is primarily attributable to an increase in rent revenue from a new tenancy in the Sony Place Facility that occurred in the 2nd quarter last year.

Net earnings from operations for the 2nd quarter was $389,000 ($0.03 per share) compared to a loss of $1,869,000 ($0.13 per share) last year. The increase in net earnings from operations quarter over quarter is primarily attributable to the substantial decline in the market value of investments held-for-trading that occurred in the 2nd quarter last year compared to a recovery of market values in the 2nd quarter this year, along with an increase in profitability from the increase in rent revenue.

Other comprehensive income was $2,661,000 compared to a loss of $547,000 last year. Other comprehensive income is the change in market value of the Company's investments that are available-for-sale, primarily its flow-through entity investment in Fort Chicago. The increase is primarily attributable to the substantial decline in the market value of investments available-for-sale that occurred in the 2nd quarter last year compared to a recovery of market values in the 2nd quarter this year.

Notes to Consolidated Interim Financial Statements - unaudited
July 31, 2009

1. Significant Accounting Policies and Basis of Presentation

(a) These unaudited consolidated interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in Canada. However, these interim financial statements do not contain all the disclosures that would be required under generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements. These interim financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of application as the audited annual consolidated financial statements at January 31, 2009. Certain disclosures required for annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted in these interim financial statements. Accordingly, these interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as presented in the Company's Annual Report for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2009. The following notes to the interim financial statements are supplemental to the notes to the annual consolidated financial statements.

(b) The Accounting Standards Board of Canada plans to converge Canadian Generally Accepted Accounting Principles for publicly accountable enterprises with International Financial Reporting Standards effective for fiscal periods commencing on or after January 1, 2011. The Company is currently assessing the impact of these new standards on its future consolidated financial statements.
