Rouse Properties, Inc. (NYSE: RSE) (“Rouse” or the “Company”) today announced that, following the anticipated close of the previously announced transaction with an affiliate of Brookfield Asset Management Inc. (NYSE: BAM, TSX: BAM.A, Euronext: BAMA) (“Brookfield”), Andrew Silberfein will step down from the role of President and Chief Executive Officer and from the Company’s Board of Directors to pursue other opportunities. Mr. Silberfein will remain CEO until Rouse’s transaction with Brookfield closes, which is expected to occur in the third quarter of 2016, subject to shareholder approval and the satisfaction of certain customary closing conditions. Brian Harper, Rouse’s current Chief Operating Officer, will serve as Chief Executive Officer of Rouse under Brookfield’s ownership.

“It has been an honor and a privilege to lead Rouse, and I am extraordinarily proud of what our team has accomplished since our spin-off in 2012 from General Growth Properties,” stated Andrew Silberfein. “In a few short years we have implemented a vision to upgrade and rebrand an underperforming portfolio, build-out a first-class platform and transform Rouse into a formidable competitor that consistently demonstrated excellent performance over this time period. Brian and I have worked side by side since our formation, and his deep market knowledge and innovative approach have been instrumental to Rouse’s success, especially since his appointment as COO last year. I am confident that the Company will be in good hands under Brian’s leadership.”

“On behalf of all shareholders of Rouse, I would like to thank Andy for his contributions over the last five years,” said Ric Clark, Chairman of Rouse and Brookfield Property Group. “During his tenure as CEO and since Rouse’s spin-off, Rouse has generated significant value for shareholders, delivering 83% total returns over that period. His leadership and dedication have played a vital role in making Rouse into the strong industry player that it is today, and we wish him the best in his future endeavors.”
