PART I
ITEM I. BUSINESS
GENERAL
The Macerich Company (the "Company") is involved in the acquisition,
ownership, redevelopment, management and leasing of regional and community
shopping centers located throughout the United States. The Company is the sole
general partner of, and owns a majority of the ownership interests in, The
Macerich Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the "Operating
Partnership"). The Operating Partnership owns or has an ownership interest in 46
regional shopping centers and seven community shopping centers aggregating
approximately 40 million square feet of gross leasable area. These 53 regional
and community shopping centers are referred to hereinafter as the "Centers",
unless the context otherwise requires. The Company is a self-administered and
self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") and conducts all of its
operations through the Operating Partnership and the Company's three management
companies, Macerich Property Management Company, a California corporation,
Macerich Manhattan Management Company, a California corporation, and Macerich
Management Company, a California corporation (collectively, the "Management
Companies").
The Company was organized as a Maryland corporation in September 1993
to continue and expand the shopping center operations of Mace Siegel, Arthur M.
Coppola, Dana K. Anderson and Edward C. Coppola and certain of their business
associates.
All references to the Company in this Form 10-K include the Company,
those entities owned or controlled by the Company and predecessors of the
Company, unless the context indicates otherwise.
RECENT DEVELOPMENTS
A. EQUITY OFFERINGS
The Company sold 7,920,181 shares of its common stock in six offerings
during 1998, raising $203.8 million of net proceeds.
On February 25, 1998, the Company issued 3,627,131 shares of its Series
A cumulative convertible redeemable preferred stock ("Series A Preferred Stock")
for net proceeds totaling $99.0 million.
On June 17, 1998, the Company issued 5,487,471 shares of its Series B

offerings totaled $451.3 million. These proceeds were used for the 1998
acquisitions, reducing borrowings under the Company's line of credit and general
corporate purposes.
B. ACQUISITIONS
On February 27, 1998, the Company, through a 50/50 joint venture with
an affiliate of Simon Property Group, Inc., acquired the ERE Yarmouth portfolio
of twelve regional malls. The properties in the portfolio comprise 10.7 million
square feet and are located in eight states. The total purchase price was $974.5
million, which included $485.0 million of assumed debt, at market value. The
Company's share of the cash component of the purchase price was funded by
issuing $100.0 million of Series A Preferred Stock, $80.0 million of common
stock and borrowing the balance from the Company's line of credit.
South Plains Mall was acquired on June 19, 1998. South Plains Mall is a
1,140,574 square foot super regional mall located in Lubbock, Texas. The
purchase price was $115.5 million, consisting of $29.3 million of assumed debt,
at fair market value, and $86.2 million of cash. The cash portion was funded
with a portion of the proceeds from the Company's Series B Preferred Stock
offering.
Westside Pavilion was acquired on July 1, 1998 for $170.5 million.
Westside Pavilion is a 755,759 square foot regional mall located in Los Angeles,
California. The purchase price was funded with a portion of the proceeds from
the Company's Series B Preferred Stock offering, borrowings under the Company's
line of credit and the placement of a ten year $100.0 million mortgage secured
by the property.

B. ACQUISITIONS, CONTINUED:
The Village at Corte Madera is a 428,398 square foot regional mall in
Corte Madera, California, which the Company acquired in two phases: (i) 40% on
June 16, 1998 and (ii) the remaining 60% on July 24, 1998. In addition, Carmel
Plaza, a 115,215 square foot community shopping center in Carmel, California was
acquired on August 10, 1998. The combined purchase price was $165.5 million,
consisting of $40.0 million of assumed debt, the issuance of $7.9 million of
limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership ("OP Units") and
$117.6 million in cash. The cash component was funded by borrowings under the
Company's line of credit.
Northwest Arkansas Mall was acquired on December 15, 1998. Northwest
Arkansas Mall is a 780,237 square foot regional mall located in Fayetteville,
Arkansas. The purchase price of $94.0 million was funded by a concurrently
placed loan of $63.0 million and borrowings of $31.0 million under the Company's
line of credit.
On February 18, 1999, through a 51/49 joint venture with Ontario
Teachers' Pension Plan Board, the Company closed on the first phase of a two
phase acquisition of a portfolio of properties. The phase one closing included
the acquisition of three regional malls, the retail component of a mixed-use
development, five contiguous properties and two non-contiguous community
shopping centers comprising approximately 3.6 million square feet for a total
purchase price of approximately $427.0 million. The purchase price was funded
with a $120.0 million loan placed concurrently with the closing, $140.4 million
of debt from an affiliate of the seller, and $39.4 million of assumed debt. The
balance of the purchase price was paid in cash. The Company's share of the cash
component was funded with the proceeds from two refinancings of centers and
borrowings under the Company's line of credit. The second phase consists of the
acquisition of the office component of the mixed-use development for a purchase
price of approximately $115 million. The closing of the second phase is expected
to occur in May 1999.
C. REFINANCINGS
On August 3, 1998, the Company, along with the joint venture partner,
refinanced the debt secured by Broadway Plaza. The loan of $43.5 million was
paid in full and a new note was issued for $75.0 million bearing interest at a
fixed rate of 6.68% and maturing August 1, 2008.
On August 7, 1998, the Company refinanced the debt on Fresno Fashion
Fair. A $38.0 million loan was paid in full and a new secured note was issued
for $69.0 million bearing interest at fixed rate of 6.52% and maturing August
10, 2008.
THE SHOPPING CENTER INDUSTRY
GENERAL
There are several types of retail shopping centers, which are
differentiated primarily based on size and marketing strategy. Retail shopping
centers generally contain in excess of 400,000 square feet of gross leasable
area ("GLA"), are typically anchored by two or more department or large retail
stores ("Anchors") and are referred to as "Regional Shopping Centers" or
"Malls". Regional Shopping Centers also typically contain numerous diversified
retail stores ("Mall Stores"), most of which are national or regional retailers
typically located along corridors connecting the Anchors. Community Shopping
Centers, also referred to as "strip centers," are retail shopping centers that
are designed to attract local or neighborhood customers and are typically
anchored by one or more supermarkets, discount department stores and/or drug
stores. Community Shopping Centers typically contain 100,000 square feet to
400,000 square feet of GLA. In addition, freestanding retail stores are located
along the perimeter of the shopping centers ("Freestanding Stores"). Anchors,
Mall and Freestanding Stores and other tenants typically contribute funds for
the maintenance of the common areas, property taxes, insurance, advertising and
other expenditures related to the operation of the shopping center.

<PAGE>
REGIONAL SHOPPING CENTERS
A Regional Shopping Center draws from its trade area by offering a
variety of fashion merchandise, hard goods and services and entertainment,
generally in an enclosed, climate controlled environment with convenient
parking. Regional Shopping Centers provide an array of retail shops and
entertainment facilities and often serve as the town center and the preferred
gathering place for community, charity, and promotional events.
The Company focuses on the acquisition and redevelopment of Regional
Shopping Centers. Regional Shopping Centers have generally provided owners with
relatively stable growth in income despite the cyclical nature of the retail
business. This stability is due both to the diversity of tenants and to the
typical dominance of Regional Shopping Centers in their trade areas. Regional
Shopping Centers are difficult to develop because of the significant barriers to
entry, including the limited availability of capital and suitable development
sites, the presence of existing Regional Shopping Centers in most markets, a
limited number of Anchors, and the associated development costs and risks.
Consequently, the Company believes that few new Regional Shopping Centers will
be built in the next five years. However, many of the market, financing and
economic risks typically associated with the development of new Regional
Shopping Centers can be mitigated by acquiring and redeveloping an existing
Regional Shopping Center. Furthermore, the value of Regional Shopping Centers
can be significantly enhanced through redevelopment, renovation and expansion.
Regional Shopping Centers have different strategies with regard to
price, merchandise offered and tenant mix, and are generally tailored to meet
the needs of their trade areas. Anchor tenants are located along common areas in
a configuration designed to maximize consumer traffic for the benefit of the
Mall Stores. Mall GLA, which generally refers to gross leasable area contiguous
to the Anchors for tenants other than Anchors, is leased to a wide variety of
smaller retailers. Mall Stores typically account for the bulk of the revenues of
a Regional Shopping Center.
Although a variety of retail formats compete for consumer purchases,
the Company believes that Regional Shopping Centers will continue to be a
preferred shopping destination. The combination of a climate controlled shopping
environment, a dominant location, and a diverse tenant mix has resulted in
Regional Shopping Centers generating higher tenant sales than are generally
achieved at smaller retail formats. Further, the Company believes that
department stores located in Regional Shopping Centers will continue to provide
a full range of current fashion merchandise at a limited number of locations in
any one market, allowing them to command the largest geographical trade area of
any retail format.
COMMUNITY SHOPPING CENTERS
Community Shopping Centers are designed to attract local and
neighborhood customers and are typically open air shopping centers, with one or
more supermarkets, drugstores or discount department stores. National retailers
such as Kids-R-Us at Bristol Shopping Center, Toys-R-Us at Boulder Plaza, and
The Gap, Victoria's Secret and Express/Bath and Body at Villa Marina, provide
the Company's Community Shopping Centers with the opportunity to draw from a
much larger trade area than a typical supermarket or drugstore anchored
Community Shopping Center.
BUSINESS OF THE COMPANY
MANAGEMENT AND OPERATING PHILOSOPHY
The Company believes that the shopping center business requires
specialized skills across a broad array of disciplines for effective and
profitable operations. For this reason, the Company has developed a fully
integrated real estate organization with in-house acquisition, redevelopment,
property management, leasing, finance, construction, marketing, legal and
accounting expertise. In addition, the Company emphasizes a philosophy of
decentralized property management, leasing and marketing performed by on-site
professionals. The Company believes that this strategy results in the optimal
operation, tenant mix and drawing power of each Center as well as the ability to
quickly respond to changing competitive conditions of the Center's trade area.
3
<PAGE>
MANAGEMENT AND OPERATING PHILOSOPHY, CONTINUED:
PROPERTY MANAGEMENT AND LEASING. The Company believes that on-site
property managers can most effectively operate the Centers. Each Center's
property manager is responsible for overseeing the operations, marketing,
maintenance and security functions at the Center. Property managers focus
special attention on controlling operating costs, a key element in the
profitability of the Centers, and seek to develop strong relationships with and
to be responsive to the needs of retailers.
The Company believes strongly in decentralized leasing and accordingly,
most of its leasing managers are located on-site to better understand the market
and the community in which a Center is located. Leasing managers are charged
with more than the responsibility of leasing space; they continually assess and
fine tune each Center's tenant mix, identify and replace underperforming tenants
and seek to optimize existing tenant sizes and configurations.
ACQUISITIONS. Since its initial public offering ("IPO"), the Company
has acquired interests in shopping centers nationwide. These acquisitions were
identified and consummated by the Company's staff of acquisition professionals
who are strategically located in Santa Monica, Dallas, Denver, and Atlanta. The
Company believes that it is geographically well positioned to cultivate and
maintain ongoing relationships with potential sellers and financial institutions
and to act quickly when acquisition opportunities arise. The Company focuses on
assets that are or can be dominant in their trade area, have a franchise and
where there is intrinsic value.
The Company made the following acquisitions in 1997: South Towne Center
in Sandy, Utah on March 27, 1997; Stonewood Mall in Downey, California on August
6, 1997; Manhattan Village in Manhattan Beach, California on August 19, 1997
through a joint venture in which the Company owns a 10% interest; The Citadel in
Colorado Springs, Colorado on December 19, 1997, and Great Falls Marketplace in
Great Falls, Montana on December 31, 1997. Together these properties are known
as the "1997 Acquisition Centers."
The Company made the following acquisitions in 1998: The Company
along with a 50/50 joint venture partner, acquired a portfolio of twelve
regional malls totaling 10.7 million square feet on February 27, 1998; South
Plains Mall in Lubbock, Texas on June 19,1998; Westside Pavilion in Los
Angeles, California on July 1, 1998; Village at Corte Madera in Corte Madera,
California in June and July 1998; Carmel Plaza in Carmel, California on
August 10, 1998; and Northwest Arkansas Mall in Fayetteville, Arkansas on
December 15, 1998. Together, these properties are known as the "1998
Acquisition Centers."
On February 18, 1999, the Company, along with a joint venture partner,
acquired a portfolio of three regional malls, the retail component of a
mixed-use development, five contiguous properties and two non-contiguous
community shopping centers totaling approximately 3.6 million square feet. The
Company is a 51% owner of this portfolio. The second phase of this transaction
consists of the acquisition of the office component of the mixed-use development
which is expected to occur in May 1999.
REDEVELOPMENT. One of the major components of the Company's growth
strategy is its ability to redevelop acquired properties. For this reason, the
Company has built a staff of redevelopment professionals who have primary
responsibility for identifying redevelopment opportunities that will result in
enhanced long-term financial returns and market position for the Centers. The
redevelopment professionals oversee the design and construction of the projects
in addition to obtaining required governmental and Anchor approvals.
THE CENTERS. As of February 18, 1999, the Centers consist of 46
Regional Shopping Centers and seven Community Shopping Centers aggregating
approximately 40 million square feet of GLA. The 46 Regional Shopping Centers in
the Company's portfolio average approximately 842,000 square feet of GLA and
range in size from 1.9 million square feet of GLA at Lakewood Mall to 324,859
square feet of GLA at Panorama Mall. The Company's seven Community Shopping
Centers, Albany Plaza, Boulder Plaza, Bristol Shopping Center, Carmel Plaza,
Eastland Plaza, Great Falls Marketplace and Villa Marina Marketplace, have an
average of 180,000 square feet of GLA. The 46 Regional Shopping Centers
presently include 163 Anchors totaling approximately 22.0 million square feet of
GLA and approximately 5,515 Mall and Freestanding Stores totaling approximately
18.0 million square feet of GLA.
Total revenues increased from $221.2 million in 1997 to $283.9 million
in 1998 primarily due to the 1998 and 1997 acquisitions. See "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."
Lakewood Mall generated 10.5% of total shopping center revenues in 1997 and
16.0% in 1996. Queens Center accounted for 13.8% of 1996 shopping center
revenue. No Center generated more than 10% of shopping center revenues during
1998.

<PAGE>
COST OF OCCUPANCY
The Company's management believes that in order to maximize the
Company's operating cash flow, the Centers' Mall Store tenants must be able to
operate profitably. A major factor contributing to tenant profitability is cost
of occupancy. The following table summarizes occupancy costs for Mall Store
tenants in the Centers as a percentage of total Mall Store sales for the last
three years:

(3) Excludes 1997 Acquisition Centers.
(4) Excludes 1998 Acquisition Centers.
COMPETITION
The 46 Regional Shopping Centers are generally located in developed
areas in middle to upper income markets where there are relatively few other
Regional Shopping Centers. In addition, 44 of the 46 Regional Shopping Centers
contain more than 400,000 square feet of GLA. The Company intends to consider
additional expansion and renovation projects to maintain and enhance the quality
of the Centers and their competitive position in their trade areas.
There are numerous owners and developers of real estate that compete
with the Company in its trade areas. There are ten other publicly traded mall
companies, any of which under certain circumstances, could compete against the
Company for an acquisition, an Anchor or a tenant. This results in competition
for both acquisition of centers and for tenants to occupy space. The existence
of competing shopping centers could have a material impact on the Company's
ability to lease space and on the level of rent that can be achieved. There is
also increasing competition from other forms of retail, such as factory outlet
centers, power centers, discount shopping clubs, mail-order services, internet
shopping and home shopping networks that could adversely affect the Company's
revenues.
MAJOR TENANTS
The Centers derived approximately 89.9% of their total rents for the
year ended December 31, 1998 from Mall and Freestanding Stores. One retailer
accounted for approximately 6.1% of annual base rents of the Company, and no
other single retailer accounted for more than 4.5%, as of December 31, 1998.

<PAGE>
MALL AND FREESTANDING STORES
Mall and Freestanding Store leases generally provide for tenants to pay
rent comprised of a fixed base (or "minimum") rent and a percentage rent based
on sales. In some cases, tenants pay only a fixed minimum rent, and in some
cases, tenants pay only percentage rents. Most leases for Mall and Freestanding
Stores contain provisions that allow the Centers to recover their costs for
maintenance of the common areas, property taxes, insurance, advertising and
other expenditures related to the operations of the Center.
The Company uses tenant spaces 10,000 square feet and under for
comparing rental rate activity. Tenant space under 10,000 square feet in the
portfolio at December 31, 1998, comprises 70.0% of all Mall and Freestanding
Store space. The Company believes that to include space over 10,000 square feet
would provide a less meaningful comparison.
When an existing lease expires, the Company is often able to enter into
a new lease with a higher base rent component. The average base rent for new
Mall and Freestanding Store leases, 10,000 square feet or under, commencing
during 1998 was $28.58 per square foot, or 14% higher than the average base rent
for all Mall and Freestanding Stores (10,000 square feet or under) at December
31, 1998 of $25.08 per square foot.
The following table sets forth for the Centers the average base rent
per square foot of Mall and Freestanding GLA, for tenants 10,000 square feet and
under, as of December 31 for each of the past three years.

1998 Acquisition Centers.
(3) The average base rent on leases expiring during the year represents the
final year minimum rent, on a cash basis, for all tenant leases 10,000
square feet or under expiring during the year. On a comparable space basis,
average rents on leases under 10,000 square feet commencing in 1998 was
$31.04 compared to expiring rents of $26.34. The average base rent on
leases expiring in 1996 excludes the 1996 Acquisition Centers, the average
for 1997 excludes 1997 Acquisition Centers and the average for 1998
excludes the 1998 Acquisition Centers.
BANKRUPTCY AND/OR CLOSURE OF RETAIL STORES
The bankruptcy and/or closure of an Anchor, or its sale to a less
desirable retailer, could adversely affect customer traffic in a Center and
thereby reduce the income generated by that Center. Furthermore, the closing of
an Anchor could, under certain circumstances, allow certain other Anchors or
other tenants to terminate their leases or cease operating their stores at the
Center or otherwise adversely affect occupancy at the Center. During 1997,
Montgomery Ward filed for bankruptcy. The Company has Montgomery Ward as an
Anchor in 11 of its Centers. Montgomery Ward has indicated that it plans to
cease operating at three of these locations. The Company is negotiating to
recapture these locations and replace Montgomery Ward with another department
store. Montgomery Ward has not yet disclosed whether it will cease to operate
any of its eight remaining stores at the Centers. If Montgomery Ward ceases to
operate any of its stores and the Company is unable to replace them with other
tenants, it could have an adverse effect on a Center.

BANKRUPTCY AND/OR CLOSURE OF RETAIL STORES, CONTINUED:
Retail stores at the Centers other than Anchors may also seek the
protection of the bankruptcy laws and/or close stores, which could result in the
termination of such tenants' leases and thus cause a reduction in the cash flow
generated by the Centers. Although no single retailer accounts for greater than
6.1% of total rents, the bankruptcy and/or closure of stores could result in
decreased occupancy levels, reduced rental income or otherwise adversely impact
the Centers. Although certain tenants have filed for bankruptcy, the Company
does not believe such filings and any subsequent closures of their stores will
have a material adverse impact on its operations.
LEASE EXPIRATIONS
The following table shows scheduled lease expirations (for Centers
owned as of December 31, 1998) of Mall and Freestanding Stores 10,000 square
feet or under for the next ten years, assuming that none of the tenants exercise
renewal options.

ANCHORS
Anchors have traditionally been a major factor in the public's
identification with Regional Shopping Centers. Anchors are generally department
stores whose merchandise appeals to a broad range of shoppers. Although the
Centers receive a smaller percentage of their operating income from Anchors than
from Mall and Freestanding Stores, strong Anchors play an important part in
maintaining customer traffic and making the Centers desirable locations for Mall
and Freestanding Store tenants.
Anchors either own their stores, the land under them and in some cases
adjacent parking areas, or enter into long-term leases with an owner at rates
that are lower than the rents charged to tenants of Mall and Freestanding
Stores. Each Anchor which owns its own store, and certain Anchors which lease
their stores, enter into reciprocal easement agreements with the owner of the
Center covering among other things, operational matters, initial construction
and future expansion.
Anchors represented approximately 10.1% of the Company's total rent for
the year ended December 31, 1998.
The following table identifies each Anchor, each parent company that
owns multiple Anchors and the number of square feet owned or leased by each such
Anchor or parent company in the Centers as of December 31, 1998, except as
otherwise indicated:

(1) During 1997, Montgomery Ward filed for bankruptcy. Montgomery Ward
announced that it will close its stores at Holiday Village Mall,
Rimrock Mall and Southridge Mall in 1999. The Company is negotiating to
recapture these locations and replace Montgomery Ward with another
department store. Montgomery Ward has not yet disclosed whether it will
cease to operate any of its eight remaining stores at the Centers.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS
Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and
regulations, an owner of real estate may be liable for the cost of removal or
remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances on or in such property.
Such laws often impose such liability without regard to whether the owner knew
of, or was responsible for, the presence of such hazardous or toxic substances.
The costs of investigation, removal or remediation of such substances may be
substantial, and the presence of such substances, or the failure to properly
remediate such substances, may adversely affect the owner's ability to sell or
rent such property or to borrow using such property as collateral. Persons who
arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances may also
be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of a release of such
substances at a disposal treatment facility, whether or not such facility is
owned or operated by such person. Certain environmental laws impose liability
for release of asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) into the air and third
parties may seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for
personal injury associated ACMs. In connection with the ownership (direct or
indirect), operation, management and development of real properties, the Company
may be considered an owner or operator of such properties or as having arranged
for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances and therefore
potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, as well as certain other
related costs, including governmental fines and injuries to persons and
property.
Each of the Centers has been subjected to a Phase I audit (which
involves review of publicly available information and general property
inspections, but does not involve soil sampling or ground water analysis)
completed by an environmental consultant.
Based on these audits, and on other information, the Company is aware
of the following environmental issues that are reasonably possible to result in
costs associated with future investigation or remediation, or in environmental
liability:
- ASBESTOS. The Company has conducted ACM surveys at various
locations within the Centers. The surveys indicate that ACMs
are present or suspected in certain areas, primarily vinyl
floor tiles, mastics, roofing materials, drywall tape and
joint compounds. The identified ACMs are generally
non-friable, in good condition, and possess low
probabilities for disturbance. At certain Centers where ACMs
are present or suspected, however, some ACMs have been or
may be classified as "friable," and ultimately may require
removal under certain conditions. The Company has developed
and implemented an operations and maintenance (O&M) plan to
manage ACM in place.
- UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANKS. Underground storage tanks (USTs)
are or were present at certain of the Centers, often in
connection with tenant operations at gasoline stations or
automotive tire, battery and accessory service centers
located at such Centers. USTs also may be or have been
present at properties neighboring certain Centers. Some of
these tanks have either leaked or are suspected to have
leaked. Where leakage has occurred, investigation,
remediation, and monitoring costs may be incurred by the
Company if responsible current or former tenants, or other
responsible parties, are unavailable to pay such costs.
- CHLORINATED HYDROCARBONS. The presence of chlorinated
hydrocarbons such as perchloroethylene (PCE) and its
degradation byproducts have been detected at certain of the
Centers, often in connection with tenant dry cleaning
operations. Where PCE has been detected, the Company may
incur investigation, remediation and monitoring costs if
responsible current or former tenants, or other responsible
parties, are unavailable to pay such costs.
PCE has been detected in soil and groundwater in the vicinity of a dry
cleaning establishment at North Valley Plaza, formerly owned by a joint venture
of which the Company was a 50% member. The property was sold on December 18,
1997. The California Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) advised the
Company in 1995 that very low levels of Dichloroethylene (1,2 DCE), a
degradation byproduct of PCE, had been detected in a municipal water well
located 1/4 mile west of the dry cleaners, and that the dry cleaning facility
may have contributed to the introduction of 1,2 DCE into the water well.
According to DTSC, the maximum contaminant level (MCL) for 1,2 DCE which is
permitted in drinking water is 6 parts per billion (ppb). The 1,2 DCE was
detected in the water well at a concentration of 1.2 ppb, which is below the
MCL. The Company has retained an environmental consultant and has initiated
extensive testing of the site. Remediation began in October 1997. The joint
venture agreed (between itself and the buyer) that it would be responsible for
continuing to pursue the investigation and remediation of impacted soil and
groundwater resulting from releases of PCE from the former dry cleaner. $153,100
and $124,000 have already been incurred by the joint venture for remediation,
and professional and legal fees for the periods ending December 31, 1998 and
1997, respectively. An additional $408,000 remains reserved by the joint venture
as of December 31, 1998.
9
<PAGE>
ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS, CONTINUED:
The joint venture has been sharing costs on a 50/50 basis with a former owner of
the property and intends to look to additional responsible parties for recovery.
Low levels of toluene, a petroleum constituent, was detected in one of
three groundwater dewatering system holding tanks at Queens Center. Although the
Company believes that no remediation will be required, the Company established a
$150,000 reserve in 1996 to cover professional fees and testing costs, which was
reduced by costs incurred of $2,300 and $18,000 for the twelve months ending
December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The Company intends to look to the
responsible parties and insurers if remediation is required.
The Company acquired Fresno Fashion Fair in December 1996. Asbestos has
been detected in structural fireproofing throughout much of the Center. Testing
data conducted by professional environmental consulting firms indicates that the
fireproofing is largely inaccessible to building occupants and is well adhered
to the structural members. Additionally, airborne concentrations of asbestos
were well within OSHA's permissible exposure limit (PEL) of .1 fcc. The
accounting for this acquisition includes a reserve of $3.3 million to cover
future removal of this asbestos, as necessary. The Company incurred $255,500 and
$170,000 in remediation costs for the twelve months ending December 31, 1998 and
1997, respectively.
INSURANCE
The Company has comprehensive liability, fire, flood, extended coverage
and rental loss insurance with respect to the Centers. The Company or the joint
venture, as applicable, also currently carries earthquake insurance covering the
Centers located in California. Management believes that such insurance provides
adequate coverage. The Company has been notified by certain of its insurance
carriers that coverage will not be provided for various claims relating to the
Year 2000 issues and is negotiating with such carriers regarding the scope of
any Year 2000 exclusions.
QUALIFICATION AS A REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST
The Company elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust under
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), commencing with its
first taxable year ended December 31, 1994, and intends to conduct its
operations so as to continue to qualify as a real estate investment trust under
the Code. As a real estate investment trust, the Company generally will not be
subject to federal and state income taxes on its net taxable income that it
currently distributes to stockholders. Qualification and taxation as a real
estate investment trust depends on the Company's ability to meet certain
dividend distribution tests, share ownership requirements and various
qualification tests prescribed in the Code.
EMPLOYEES
The Company and the Management Companies employ approximately 1,443
persons, including eight executive officers, personnel in the areas of
acquisitions and business development (7), property management (260), leasing
(68), redevelopment/construction (22), financial services (37) and legal affairs
(24). In addition, in an effort to minimize operating costs, the Company
generally maintains its own security staff (447) and maintenance staff (570).
Approximately six of these employees are represented by a union. The Company
believes that relations with its employees are good.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES, CONTINUED
(1) The land underlying thirty-nine of the Centers is owned in fee entirely
by the Company or, in the case of jointly-owned Centers, by the joint
venture property partnership or limited liability company. All or part of
the land underlying the remaining Centers is owned by third parties and
leased to the Company or property partnership pursuant to long-term ground
leases. Under the terms of a typical ground lease, the Company or property
partnership pays rent for the use of the land and is generally responsible
for all costs and expenses associated with the building and improvements.
In some cases, the Company or property partnership has an option or right
of first refusal to purchase the land. The termination dates of the ground
leases range from 2000 to 2070.
(2) Includes GLA attributable to Anchors (whether owned or non-owned) and Mall
and Freestanding Stores as of December 31, 1998.
(3) Sales are based on reports by retailers leasing Mall and Freestanding
Stores for the year ending December 31, 1998 for tenants which have
occupied such stores for a minimum of twelve months. Consistent with
industry practices, sales per square foot are based on gross leased and
occupied area, excluding theaters, and are not based on GLA.
(4) Portions of the land on which the Center is situated are subject to one
or more ground leases.
(5) Wal-Mart opened in May 1998.
(6) During 1997, Montgomery Ward filed for bankruptcy. Montgomery Ward
announced that it will close its stores at Holiday Village Mall, Rimrock
Mall and Southridge Mall in 1999. Montgomery Ward has not yet disclosed
whether it will cease to operate any of its eight remaining stores at the
Centers.
(7) Edwards Cinema signed a lease in January 1997 to open a 16 screen
theater in the former Broadway location.
(8) These properties have a vacant Anchor location. The Company is
contemplating various replacement tenant/redevelopment opportunities for
these vacant sites.
(9) Certain spaces have been intentionally held off the market and remain
vacant because of major redevelopment plans. As a result, the Company
believes the percentage of Mall and Free-standing GLA leased and the sales
per square foot at these major redevelopment properties is not meaningful
data.
(10) Final 1998 sales per square foot information is not currently
available.

Notes:
(1) The annual debt service payment represents the payment of principal
and interest. In addition, contingent interest, as defined in the
loan agreement, may be due to the extent that 35% of the gross
receipts (as defined in the loan agreement) exceeds a base amount
specified therein. Contingent interest recognized was $387,101 for
the year ended December 31, 1998 and $98,528 for the year ended
December 31, 1997.
(2) This loan bore interest at LIBOR plus 0.45%. There was an interest
rate protection agreement in place on the first $10.2 million of
this debt with a LIBOR ceiling of 5.88% through maturity with the
remaining principal having an interest rate cap with a LIBOR
ceiling of 7.07% through 1997 and 7.7% thereafter. This loan was
paid in full on February 4, 1999 and refinanced with a new loan of
$100 million, with interest at 6.74%, maturing in 2009.
(3) These loans bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.0%.
16
<PAGE>
MORTGAGE DEBT, CONTINUED:
(4) This note was assumed at acquisition. At the time of
acquisition in June 1998, this debt was recorded at fair market
value and the premium was amortized as interest expense over the
life of the loan using the effective interest method. The monthly
debt service payment was $348,000 per month and was calculated
based on a 12.5% interest rate. At December 31, 1998, the
unamortized premium was $6,165,000. On February 17, 1999, the
loan was paid in full and was refinanced with a new loan of $65
million, with interest at 7.49%, maturing in 2009.
(5) Reflects the Company's pro rata share of debt.
(6) In connection with the acquisition of these Centers, the
joint venture assumed $485 million of mortgage notes payable
which are secured by the properties. At acquisition, this debt
reflected a fair market value of $322.7 million, which included
an unamortized premium of $22.7 million. This premium is being
amortized as interest expense over the life of the loan using the
effective interest method. At December 31, 1998, the unamortized
balance of the debt premium was $20.9 million. This debt is due
in May 2006 and requires a monthly payment of $926,000. $185
million of this debt is due in May 2003 and requires monthly
interest payments at a variable weighted average rate (based on
LIBOR) of 6.15% at December 31, 1998. This variable rate debt
is covered by an interest rate cap agreement which effectively
prevents the interest rate from exceeding 11.53%.
At December 31,1997, the Company had $55.0 million of borrowings
outstanding under its $60.0 million unsecured credit facility, which bore
interest at LIBOR plus 1.325%. On February 26, 1998, the Company increased this
credit facility to $150 million with a maturity of February 2000, currently
bearing interest at LIBOR plus 1.15%. The interest rate on such credit facility
fluctuates between 0.95% and 1.15% over LIBOR. As of December 31, 1998, $137
million of borrowings was outstanding under this line of credit at an interest
rate of 6.79%.
Additionally, the Company had issued $776,000 in letters of credit
guaranteeing performance by the Company of certain events. The Company does not
believe that these letters of credit will result in a liability to the Company.
During January 1999, the Company entered into a bank construction loan
agreement to fund $89.2 million of costs related to the redevelopment of Pacific
View. See "Item 2. Properties." The loan bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% and
matures in February 2001. Principal is drawn as construction costs are incurred.
During 1997, the Company issued and sold $161.4 million of convertible
subordinated debentures (the"Debentures") due 2002. The Debentures, which were
sold at par, bear interest at 7.25% annually (payable semi-annually) and are
convertible at any time, on or after 60 days, from the date of issue at a
conversion price of $31.125 per share. The Debentures mature on December 15,
2002 and are callable by the Company after June 15, 2002 at par plus accrued
interest.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
The Company, the Operating Partnership, the Management Companies and
the affiliated partnerships are not currently involved in any material
litigation nor, to the Company's knowledge, is any material litigation currently
threatened against such entities or the Centers, other than routine litigation
arising in the ordinary course of business, most of which is expected to be
covered by liability insurance. For information about certain environmental
matters, see "Business of the Company - Environmental Matters."

ITEM 6. SELECTED FINANCIAL DATA.
The following sets forth selected financial data for the Company on a
historical and pro forma consolidated basis, and for the Centers and the
Management Companies (collectively, the "Predecessor") on a historical combined
basis. The following data should be read in conjunction with the financial
statements (and the notes thereto) of the Company and "Management's Discussion
And Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" each included
elsewhere in this Form 10-K.
The pro forma data for the Company for the year ended December 31, 1994
has been prepared as if the IPO, and the transactions related to the
reorganization of the Operating Partnership and formation of the Company (the
"Formation") and the application of the net proceeds of the IPO had occurred as
of January 1, 1994. The pro forma information is not necessarily indicative of
what the Company's financial position or results of operations would have been
assuming the completion of the Formation and IPO at the beginning of the period
indicated, nor does it purport to project the Company's financial position or
results of operations at any future date or for any future period.
The Selected Financial Data is presented on a combined basis. The
limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership (not owned by the
REIT) are reflected in the pro forma data as minority interest. Centers in which
the Company does not have a controlling ownership interest (Panorama Mall, North
Valley Plaza, Broadway Plaza, Manhattan Village, SDG Macerich Properties, L.P.
and West Acres Shopping Center) are referred to as the "Joint Venture Centers",
and along with the Management Companies, are reflected in the selected financial
data under the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the net income from the
Joint Venture Centers and the Management Companies that is allocable to the
Company is included in the statement of operations as "Equity in income (loss)
of unconsolidated joint ventures and Management Companies."

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
GENERAL BACKGROUND AND PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT
The Company believes that the most significant measures of its
operating performance are Funds from Operations and EBITDA. Funds from
Operations is defined as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP),
excluding gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and sales or write-down of
assets, plus depreciation and amortization (excluding depreciation on personal
property and amortization of loan and financial instrument costs), and after
adjustments for unconsolidated entities. Adjustments for unconsolidated entities
are calculated on the same basis. Funds from Operations does not represent cash
flow from operations as defined by GAAP and is not necessarily indicative of
cash available to fund all cash flow needs.
EBITDA represents earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation,
amortization, minority interest, equity in income (loss) of unconsolidated
entities, extraordinary items, gain (loss) on sale of assets and preferred
dividends. This data is relevant to an understanding of the economics of the
shopping center business as it indicates cash flow available from operations to
service debt and satisfy certain fixed obligations. EBITDA should not be
construed as an alternative to operating income as an indicator of the Company's
operating performance, or to cash flows from operating activities (as determined
in accordance with GAAP) or as a measure of liquidity. While the performance of
individual Centers and the Management Companies determines EBITDA, the Company's
capital structure also influences Funds from Operations. The most important
component in determining EBITDA and Funds from Operations is Center revenues.
Center revenues consist primarily of minimum rents, percentage rents and tenant
expense recoveries. Minimum rents will increase to the extent that new leases
are signed at market rents that are higher than prior rents. Minimum rent will
also fluctuate up or down with changes in the occupancy level. Additionally, to
the extent that new leases are signed with more favorable expense recovery
terms, expense recoveries will increase.
Percentage rents generally increase or decrease with changes in tenant
sales. As leases roll over, however, a portion of historical percentage rent is
often converted to minimum rent. It is therefore common for percentage rents to
decrease as minimum rents increase. Accordingly, in discussing financial
performance, the Company combines minimum and percentage rents in order to
better measure revenue growth.
The following discussion is based primarily on the consolidated
financial statements of the Company for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997
and 1996. The following discussion compares the activity for the year ended
December 31, 1998 to results of operations for 1997. Also included is a
comparison of the activities for the year ended December 31, 1997 to the results
for the year ended December 31, 1996. This information should be read in
conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto.

Northwest Arkansas Mall December 15, 1998 Fayetteville, Arkansas
</TABLE>
(*) denotes the Company owns these Centers through a joint venture partnership.
The financial statements include the results of these Centers for periods
subsequent to their acquisition.
Many of the variations in the results of operations, discussed
below, occurred due to the addition of these properties to the portfolio
during 1998, 1997 and 1996. Many factors impact the Company's ability to
acquire additional properties including the availability and cost of capital,
overall debt to market capitalization level, interest rates and availability
of potential acquisition targets that meet the Company's criteria.
Accordingly, management is uncertain whether during the balance of 1999, and
in future years, there will be similar acquisitions and corresponding
increases in revenues, net income and Funds from Operations that occurred as
a result of the 1998, 1997 and 1996 Acquisition Centers. Pacific View
(formerly known as Buenaventura Mall), Crossroads Mall-Boulder, Huntington
Center and Parklane Mall are currently under redevelopment and are referred
to herein as the "Redevelopment Centers." All other centers are referred to
herein as the "Same Centers".
The bankruptcy and/or closure of an Anchor, or its sale to a less
desirable retailer, could adversely affect customer traffic in a Center and
thereby reduce the income generated by that Center. Furthermore, the closing of
an Anchor could, under certain circumstances, allow certain other Anchors or
other tenants to terminate their leases or cease operating their stores at the
Center or otherwise adversely affect occupancy at the Center. During 1997,
Montgomery Ward filed for bankruptcy. The Company has Montgomery Ward as an
Anchor in 11 of its Centers. Montgomery Ward has indicated that it plans to
cease operating at three of these locations. The Company is negotiating to
recapture these locations and replace Montgomery Ward with another department
store. Montgomery Ward has not yet disclosed whether they will cease to operate
any of its eight remaining stores at the Centers. If Montgomery Ward ceases to
operate any of its stores and the Company is unable to replace them with other
tenants, it could have an adverse effect on a Center.
In addition, the Company's success in the highly competitive real
estate shopping center business depends upon many other factors, including
general economic conditions, the ability of tenants to make rent payments,
increases or decreases in operating expenses, occupancy levels, changes in
demographics, competition from other centers and forms of retailing and the
ability to renew leases or relet space upon the expiration or termination of
leases.

ASSETS AND LIABILITIES
Total assets increased to $2,322 million at December 31, 1998 compared
to $1,505 million at December 31, 1997 and $1,188 million at December 31, 1996.
During that same period, total liabilities increased from $838 million in 1996
to $1,188 million in 1997 and $1,579 million in 1998. These changes were
primarily as a result of the 1996 and 1998 common stock offerings, the 1997
convertible debenture offering, the purchase of the 1998, 1997 and 1996
Acquisition Centers and related debt transactions.
A. EQUITY OFFERINGS
The Company sold 7,920,181 shares of its common stock in six offerings
during 1998, raising $203.8 million of net proceeds.
On February 25, 1998, the Company issued 3,627,131 shares of its Series
A Preferred Stock for net proceeds totaling $99.0 million.
On June 17, 1998, the Company issued 5,487,471 shares of its Series B
Preferred Stock for net proceeds totaling $148.5 million.
The total net proceeds from the 1998 common and preferred stock
offerings totaled $451.3 million. These proceeds were used for the 1998
acquisitions, reducing borrowings under the Company's line of credit and general
corporate purposes.
B. ACQUISITIONS
On February 27, 1998, the Company, through a 50/50 joint venture with
an affiliate of Simon Property Group, Inc., acquired the ERE Yarmouth portfolio
of twelve regional malls. The properties in the portfolio comprise 10.7 million
square feet and are located in eight states. The total purchase price was $974.5
million, which included $485.0 million of assumed debt, at market value. The
Company's share of the cash component of the purchase price was funded by
issuing $100.0 million of Series A Preferred Stock, $80.0 million of common
stock and borrowing the balance from the Company's line of credit.
South Plains Mall was acquired on June 19, 1998. South Plains Mall is a
1,140,574 square foot super regional mall located in Lubbock, Texas. The
purchase price was $115.5 million, consisting of $29.3 million of assumed debt,
at fair market value, and $86.2 million of cash. The cash portion was funded
with a portion of the proceeds from the Company's Series B Preferred Stock
offering.
Westside Pavilion was acquired on July 1, 1998 for $170.5 million.
Westside Pavilion is a 755,759 square foot regional mall located in Los Angeles,
California. The purchase price was funded with a portion of the proceeds from
the Company's Series B Preferred Stock offering, borrowings under the Company's
line of credit and the placement of a ten year $100.0 million mortgage secured
by the property.
The Village at Corte Madera is a 428,398 square foot regional mall in
Corte Madera, California, which the Company acquired in two phases: (i) 40% on
June 16, 1998 and (ii) the remaining 60% on July 24, 1998. In addition, Carmel
Plaza, a 115,215 square foot community shopping center in Carmel, California was
acquired on August 10, 1998. The combined purchase price was $165.5 million,
consisting of $40.0 million of assumed debt, the issuance of $7.9 million of OP
Units and $117.6 million in cash. The cash component was funded by borrowings
under the Company's line of credit.
Northwest Arkansas Mall was acquired on December 15, 1998. Northwest
Arkansas Mall is a 780,237 square foot regional mall located in Fayetteville,
Arkansas. The purchase price of $94.0 million was funded by a concurrently
placed loan of $63.0 million and borrowings of $31.0 million under the Company's
line of credit.
On February 18, 1999, through a 51/49 joint venture with Ontario
Teachers' Pension Plan Board, the Company closed on the first phase of a two
phase acquisition of a portfolio of properties. The phase one closing included
the acquisition of three regional malls, the retail component of a mixed-use
development, five contiguous properties and two non-contiguous community
shopping centers comprising approximately 3.6 million square feet for a total
purchase price of approximately $427.0 million. The purchase price was funded
with a $120.0 million loan placed concurrently with the closing, $140.4 million
of debt from an affiliate of the seller, and $39.4 million of assumed debt. The
balance of the purchase price was paid in cash. The Company's share of the cash
component was funded with the proceeds from two refinancings of centers and
borrowings under the Company's line of credit.
25
<PAGE>
B. ACQUISITIONS, CONTINUED:
The second phase consists of the acquisition of the office component of the
mixed-use development for a purchase price of approximately $115 million. The
closing of the second phase is expected to occur in May 1999.
C. REFINANCINGS
On August 3, 1998, the Company, along with the joint venture partner,
refinanced the debt secured by Broadway Plaza. The loan of $43.5 million was
paid in full and a new note was issued for $75.0 million bearing interest at a
fixed rate of 6.68% and maturing August 1, 2008.
On August 7, 1998, the Company refinanced the debt on Fresno Fashion
Fair. A $38.0 million loan was paid in full and a new secured note was issued
for $69.0 million bearing interest at a fixed rate of 6.52% and maturing August
10, 2008.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
COMPARISON OF YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 AND 1997
REVENUES
Minimum and percentage rents increased by 27% to $192.6
million in 1998 from $151.5 million in 1997. Approximately $18.9
million of the increase resulted from the 1997 Acquisition Centers,
$18.8 million resulted from the 1998 Acquisition Centers and $5.0
million of the increase was attributable to the Same Centers. These
increases were partially offset by revenue decreases at the
Redevelopment Centers of $1.6 million in 1998.
Tenant recoveries increased to $86.7 million in 1998 from
$66.5 million in 1997. The 1998 and 1997 Acquisition Centers generated
$17.7 million of this increase and $2.2 million of the increase was
from the Same Centers.
Other income increased to $4.5 million in 1998 from $3.2
million in 1997. Approximately $0.6 million of the increase related to
the 1998 and 1997 Acquisition Centers, $0.7 million of the increase was
attributable to the Same Centers and the Redevelopment Centers.
EXPENSES
Shopping center expenses increased to $90.0 million in 1998
compared to $70.9 million in 1997. Approximately $17.3 million of the
increase resulted from the 1998 and 1997 Acquisition Centers. The other
Centers had a net increase of $1.8 million in shopping center expenses
resulting primarily from increased property taxes and recoverable
expenses.
General and administrative expenses increased to $4.4
million in 1998 from $2.8 million in 1997 primarily due to the
accounting change required by EITF 97-11, "Accounting for Internal
Costs Relating to Real Estate Property Acquisitions," which requires
the expensing of internal acquisition costs. Previously in accordance
with GAAP, certain internal acquisition costs were capitalized. The
increase is also attributable to higher executive and director
compensation expense.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense increased to $91.4 million in 1998 from
$66.4 million in 1997. This increase of $25.0 million is primarily
attributable to the acquisition activity in 1997 and 1998, which was
partially funded with secured debt and borrowings under the Company's
line of credit. In addition, in June and July of 1997, the Company
issued $161.4 million of convertible debentures, which contributed to
$5.7 million of this increase.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
Depreciation increased to $53.1 million from $41.5 million
in 1997. This increase relates primarily to the 1997 and 1998
Acquisition Centers.
26
<PAGE>
MINORITY INTEREST
The minority interest represents the 28.4% weighted average
interest of the Operating Partnership that was not owned by the Company
during 1998. This compares to 31.8% not owned by the Company during
1997.
INCOME (LOSS) FROM UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES AND MANAGEMENT
COMPANIES
The income from unconsolidated joint ventures and the
Management Companies was $14.5 million for 1998, compared to a loss of
$8.1 million in 1997. A total of $14.5 million of the change is
attributable to the 1998 acquisition of the ERE/Yarmouth portfolio.
Also, in 1997, there was a write-down and loss of $10.5 million on the
sale of North Valley Plaza.
GAIN ON SALE OF ASSETS
During 1997, the Company sold a parcel of land for a net gain
of $1.6 million compared to a minimal amount of gain on sale
recognized in 1998.
EXTRAORDINARY LOSS FROM EARLY EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT
In 1998, the Company wrote off $2.4 million of unamortized
financing costs, compared to $0.6 million written off in 1997.
NET INCOME AVAILABLE TO COMMON STOCKHOLDERS
As a result of the foregoing, net income available to common
stockholders increased to $32.5 million in 1998 from $22.0 million in
1997.
OPERATING ACTIVITIES
Cash flow from operations was $85.2 million in 1998 compared
to $78.4 million in 1997. The increase resulted from the factors
discussed above, primarily the impact of the 1997 and 1998 Acquisition
Centers.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES
Cash flow used in investing activities was $761.1 million in
1998 compared to $215.0 million in 1997. The change resulted primarily
from the higher volume of acquisition activity completed in 1998
compared to 1997.
FINANCING ACTIVITIES
Cash flow from financing activities was $676.0 million in
1998 compared to $146.0 million in 1997. The increase resulted from the
offerings of 7,920,181 shares of common stock, 3,627,131 shares of
Series A Preferred Stock and 5,487,471 shares of Series B Preferred
Stock completed in 1998. No equity was raised in 1997.
EBITDA AND FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
Primarily because of the factors mentioned above, EBITDA
increased 28% to $189.5 million in 1998 from $147.6 million in 1997 and
Funds from Operations - Diluted increased 44% to $120.5 million from
$83.4 million in 1997.
COMPARISON OF YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1996
REVENUES
Minimum and percentage rents increased by 44% to $151.5
million in 1997 from $105.2 million in 1996. Approximately $36.0
million of the increase resulted from the 1996 Acquisition Centers and
$11.9 million resulted from the 1997 Acquisition Centers. These
increases were partially offset by decreases of $0.5 million at
Parklane Mall and $0.3 million at Crossroads-Boulder, both due to
reduced occupancy incurred during redevelopment.
27
<PAGE>
REVENUES, CONTINUED:
Tenant recoveries increased to $66.5 million in 1997 from
$47.7 million in 1996. The 1997 and 1996 Acquisition Centers generated
$19.6 million of this increase. These increases were partially offset
by lower recoveries resulting from lower Same Center recoverable
expenses in 1997 compared to 1996.
Other income increased to $3.2 million in 1997 from $2.2
million in 1996. Approximately $0.5 million of the increase related to
the 1997 and 1996 Acquisition Centers, and approximately $0.5 million
of this increase resulted from nonrecurring fee income received in
1997.
EXPENSES
Shopping center expenses increased to $70.9 million in 1997
compared to $50.8 million in 1996. Approximately $20.9 million of the
increase resulted from the 1997 and 1996 Acquisition Centers. The other
centers had a net decrease of $0.8 million in shopping center expenses
resulting primarily from decreased property taxes, insurance premiums
and recoverable expenses.
General and administrative expenses increased to $2.8
million in 1997 from $2.4 million in 1996, primarily due to increased
executive and director compensation expense and professional fee
expense.
INTEREST EXPENSE
Interest expense increased to $66.4 million in 1997 from
$42.4 million in 1996. This increase of $24.0 million is attributable
to the acquisition activity in 1997 and 1996, which was partially
funded with secured debt. In addition, in June and July 1997, the
Company issued $161.4 million of convertible debentures.
DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION
Depreciation increased to $41.5 million from $32.6 million
in 1996. This increase relates primarily to the 1996 and 1997
Acquisition Centers.
MINORITY INTEREST
The minority interest represented the 31.8% weighted average
interest of the Operating Partnership that was not owned by the Company
during 1997. This compares to 36.9% not owned by the Company during
1996.
INCOME (LOSS) FROM UNCONSOLIDATED JOINT VENTURES AND MANAGEMENT
COMPANIES
The loss from unconsolidated joint ventures and the
Management Companies was $8.1 million for 1997, compared to a gain of
$3.3 million in 1996. A total of $10.5 million of the change is
attributable to the write-down and the loss on the sale of North Valley
Plaza in 1997.
GAIN ON SALE OF ASSETS
During 1997 the Company sold a parcel of land for a net gain
of $1.6 million. There was no gain on sale recognized in 1996.
EXTRAORDINARY LOSS FROM EARLY EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT
In 1997 the Company wrote off $0.6 million of unamortized
financing costs, compared to $0.3 million written off in 1996.
NET INCOME
As a result of the foregoing, net income increased to $22.0
million in 1997 from $18.9 million in 1996.

<PAGE>
OPERATING ACTIVITIES
Cash flow from operations was $78.5 million in 1997 compared
to $80.4 million in 1996. The decrease resulted from the factors
discussed above, primarily the impact of the 1996 and 1997 Acquisition
Centers and related financings.
INVESTING ACTIVITIES
Cash flow used in investing activities was $215.0 million in
1997 compared to $296.7 million in 1996. The change resulted primarily
from the four acquisitions completed in 1997 compared to seven
acquisitions in 1996.
FINANCING ACTIVITIES
Cash flow from financing activities was $146.0 million in
1997 compared to $216.3 million in 1996. The decrease resulted from
more acquisition financing done in 1996 than 1997.
EBITDA AND FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
Due primarily to the factors mentioned above, EBITDA
increased 45%, to $147.6 million in 1997 from $101.9 million in 1996
and Funds From Operations increased 33%, to $83.2 million, from $62.4
million in 1996.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The Company intends to meet its short term liquidity
requirements through cash generated from operations and working capital
reserves. The Company anticipates that revenues will continue to
provide necessary funds for its operating expenses and debt service
requirements, and to pay dividends to stockholders in accordance with
REIT requirements. The Company anticipates that cash generated from
operations, together with cash on hand, will be adequate to fund
capital expenditures which will not be reimbursed by tenants, other
than non-recurring capital expenditures. Capital for major expenditures
or major redevelopments has been, and is expected to continue to be,
obtained from equity or debt financings which include borrowings under
the Company's line of credit and construction loans. However, many
factors impact the Company's ability to access capital, such as its
overall debt to market capitalization level, interest rates and
interest coverage ratios. The Company currently is undertaking a $90
million redevelopment of Pacific View. See "Item 2. Properties." The
Company has a bank construction loan agreement to fund $89.2 million
of these construction costs.
The Company believes that it will have access to the capital
necessary to expand its business in accordance with its strategies for
growth and maximizing Funds from Operations. The Company presently
intends to obtain additional capital necessary to expand its business
through a combination of additional public and private equity
offerings, debt financings and/or joint ventures. During 1998 and 1999,
the Company acquired two portfolios through joint ventures with another
party. The Company believes such joint venture arrangements provide an
attractive alternative to other forms of financing, particularly during
periods when access to public capital markets is restricted by
prevailing market conditions. See "Equity Offerings" and
"Acquisitions."
The Company's total outstanding loan indebtedness at
December 31, 1998 was $1.8 billion (including its pro rata share of
joint venture debt). This equated to a debt to Total Market
Capitalization (defined as total debt of the Company, including its pro
rata share of joint venture debt, plus aggregate market value of
outstanding shares of common stock, assuming full conversion of OP
Units and preferred stock into common stock) ratio of approximately 56%
at December 31, 1998. The Company's debt consists primarily of
fixed-rate conventional mortgages payable secured by individual
properties. See "Properties-Mortgage Debt" for a description of the
Company's outstanding mortgage indebtedness.
The Company has filed a shelf registration statement,
effective December 8, 1997, to sell securities. The shelf registration
is for a total of $500 million of common stock, common stock warrants
or common stock rights. On February 18, 1998, the Company issued
1,052,650 shares and on February 23, 1998 an additional 1,826,484
shares were issued. On April 24, 1998, the Company issued 808,989
shares and an additional 967,256, 1,864, 802 and 1,400,000 shares were
issued on April 29, 1998, May 29, 1998 and December 14, 1998,
respectively. The aggregate offering price of these transactions was
approximately $212.9 million, leaving approximately $287.1 million
available under the shelf registration statement.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES, CONTINUED:
The Company has an unsecured line of credit for up to $150.0
million. There was $137.0 million of borrowings outstanding at
December 31, 1998.
At December 31, 1998, the Company had cash and cash
equivalents available of $25.1 million.
YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE
THE INFORMATION PROVIDED BELOW CONTAINS YEAR 2000 STATEMENTS AND IS A
YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE PURSUANT TO PUB. L. NO. 105-271.
YEAR 2000 ISSUES
The Year 2000 issue is the result of many existing computer programs
and embedded technology using two digits rather than four to define the
applicable year. The Company's computer equipment and software and devices with
embedded technology that are time-sensitive may recognize a date using "00" as
the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could result in system failure or
erroneous data which would cause disruptions of operations.
The Company has initiated a Year 2000 compliance program consisting of
the following phases: (1) identification of Year 2000 issues; (2) assessment of
Year 2000 compliance of systems; (3) remediation or replacement of non-compliant
systems; (4) testing to verify compliance; and (5) contingency planning, as
appropriate. This program includes a review of both information technology
("IT") and non-IT systems and is being supervised by the Company's Year 2000
team which consists of management as well as operational and IT staff members.
On February 18, 1999, the Company acquired several properties from
various Safeco Corporation entities and is in the process of reviewing each
property's Year 2000 readiness. Such review is anticipated to be completed by
June 30, 1999. See "Recent Developments - Acquisitions". The following
disclosure provides information regarding the Company's properties excluding
those acquisition properties.
IT SYSTEMS
The Company has reviewed its core computer hardware systems and
software programs to determine if such systems and programs will properly
process dates in the Year 2000 and thereafter. Based on manufacturer or vendor
information, the Company presently believes most of its critical computer
hardware systems and software programs are substantially Year 2000 compliant.
The Company is aware of one critical hardware system which needs a Year 2000
upgrade at a cost of approximately $13,100. The Company is currently conducting
its own evaluation and testing to verify compliance of its critical hardware
systems and software and expects to conclude such testing by June 1, 1999.
The most important software program to the Company's operations is its
property management and accounting software. The Company has been advised by its
independent software vendor that it has completed its evaluation, testing and
modification of this program and the necessary changes have been completed to
achieve Year 2000 compliance. The Company is conducting its own evaluation and
testing to confirm this conclusion and expects to complete such testing by June
1, 1999.
The Company completed its assessment of the Year 2000 compliance of its
non-critical computer hardware systems and software programs by its target date
of December 31, 1998. Based on manufacturer or vendor information, the Company
presently believes that substantially all of its non-critical hardware systems
and software programs are Year 2000 compliant.
30
<PAGE>
YEAR 2000 READINESS DISCLOSURE, CONTINED:
NON-IT SYSTEMS
Part of the Company's Year 2000 program also includes a review of
the various operating systems of each of its portfolio properties and main
offices. These systems typically include embedded technology which
complicates the Company's Year 2000 efforts. Examples of these types of
systems include energy management systems, telecommunication systems,
elevators, security systems and copiers. The various operating systems have
been assigned priorities based on the importance of the system to each
property's operations and the potential impact of non-compliance. All of the
Company's properties have substantially completed their initial assessment of
each system and are verifying Year 2000 compliance through the manufacturers
and/or vendors of the systems. Approximately 70% of the critical operating
systems for which the Company has received information from manufacturers or
vendors are substantially Year 2000 compliant as reported by such entities.
Certain critical systems, 11 energy management systems, one telephone system,
and one parking access computer software system, will need Year 2000 upgrades
and the Company is in the process of obtaining such upgrades at an aggregate
cost of approximately $50,000. Other non-compliant critical systems are being
upgraded by the manufacturer at no cost to the Company or were previously
scheduled for replacement or upgrades prior to January 1, 2000. With respect
to approximately 20% of its critical operating systems, the Company has not
received the necessary information to assess the Year 2000 compliance of such
systems. The Company is contacting these manufacturers/ vendors to obtain the
information necessary to complete its Year 2000 compliance assessment.
Each property is preparing recommendations regarding the remediation
and testing phases. Remediation and testing recommendations and time lines are
prepared based on the importance of each system to the property's operations and
information received from the manufacturer/vendor. The Company plans to
coordinate the testing phase with the manufacturers/vendors of the systems, as
appropriate. The Company established June 1, 1999 as its target date to complete
the remediation and testing phases for the critical operating systems at each
property. The Company will need the cooperation of its manufacturers/vendors in
providing information and testing assistance to meet this timeline for its
critical operating systems. If such cooperation is not provided, completion of
these phases will be delayed. The Company expects the Year 2000 program to
continue beyond January 1, 2000 with respect to non-critical operating systems
and issues.
MATERIAL THIRD PARTIES
The Company mailed surveys to its material vendors, utilities and
tenants about their plans and progress in addressing the Year 2000 issue. Those
entities surveyed include the utilities for each mall (i.e., electric, gas,
water, telephone and waste management companies), the largest tenants of the
Company based on the amount of their 1998 rent payments and certain Anchor
tenants. As of this date, the Company has received responses from approximately
58% of those entities surveyed. Generally, the responses received state that the
entity is in the process of addressing the Year 2000 compliance issues and
expects to achieve compliance prior to January 1, 2000.
COSTS
Because the Company's assessment, remediation and testing efforts are
ongoing, the Company is unable to estimate the actual costs of achieving Year
2000 compliance for its IT and non-IT systems. Based on information received
from manufacturers/vendors, the Company presently anticipates that the
assessment and remediation costs will not be material. As of December 31, 1998,
the Company has not expended significant amounts since its evaluation of Year
2000 issues has been primarily conducted by its own personnel. The Company does
not separately record the internal costs incurred for its Year 2000 compliance
program. Such costs are primarily the related payroll costs for its personnel
who are part of the Year 2000 program.
RISKS
As is true of most businesses, the Company is vulnerable to external
forces that might generally effect industry and commerce, such as utility
company Year 2000 compliance failures and related service interruptions. In
addition, failure of information and operating systems of tenants may delay the
payment of rent to the Company or impair their ability to operate. A formal
contingency plan has not yet been developed for dealing with the most reasonably
likely worst case scenario. The Company will continue to evaluate potential
areas of risk and develop a contingency plan, as appropriate.
Based on currently available information, the Company believes that the
Year 2000 issue will not pose significant operational problems for the Company.
However, if all Year 2000 issues are not properly identified, or assessment,
remediation and testing are not effected in a timely manner, there can be no
assurance that the Year 2000 issue will not adversely affect the Company's
results of operations or its relationships with tenants or other third parties.
Additionally, there can be no assurance that the Year 2000 issues of third
parties will not have an adverse impact on the Company's results of operations.

<PAGE>
FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
The Company believes that the most significant measure of its
performance is FFO. FFO is defined by The National Association of Real
Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") to be: Net income (loss) (computed
in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from debt
restructuring and sales or write-down of assets, plus depreciation and
amortization (excluding depreciation on personal property and
amortization of loan and financial instrument costs) and after
adjustments for unconsolidated entities. Adjustments for unconsolidated
entities are calculated on the same basis. FFO does not represent cash
flow from operations, as defined by GAAP, and is not necessarily
indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs. The following
reconciles net income available to common stockholders to FFO:

weighted average shares of common stock outstanding for 1998
assuming the conversion of all outstanding OP Units.
(2) The computation of FFO - diluted and diluted average number
of shares outstanding includes the effect of outstanding common
stock options and restricted stock using the treasury method.
Convertible debentures for the twelve month period are
anti-dilutive and are not included. On February 25, 1998, the
Company sold $100 million of its Series A Preferred Stock. On
June 17, 1998, the Company sold $150 million of its Series B
Preferred Stock. The preferred stock can be converted on a
one-for-one basis for common stock. The preferred shares are not
assumed converted for purposes of net income per share as they
would be anti-dilutive to that calculation. The preferred shares
are assumed converted for purposes of FFO-diluted per share as
they are dilutive to that calculation.
Included in minimum rents were rents attributable to the accounting
practice of straight lining of rents. The amount of straight lining of
rents that impacted minimum rents was $3,814,000 for 1998, $3,599,000
for 1997 and $1,832,000 for 1996.
INFLATION
In the last three years, inflation has not had a significant
impact on the Company because of a relatively low inflation rate. Most of
the leases at the Centers have rent adjustments periodically through the
lease term. These rent increases are either in fixed increments or based on
increases in the Consumer Price Index. In addition, many of the leases are
for terms of less than ten years, which enables the Company to replace
existing leases with new leases at higher base rents if the rents of the
existing leases are below the then existing market rate. Additionally, most
of the leases require the tenants to pay their pro rata share of operating
expenses. This reduces the Company's exposure to increases in costs and
operating expenses resulting from inflation.
SEASONALITY
The shopping center industry is seasonal in nature, particularly in the
fourth quarter during the holiday season when retailer occupancy and retail
sales are typically at their highest levels. In addition, shopping malls
achieve a substantial portion of their specialty (temporary retailer) rents
during the holiday season. As a result of the above, earnings are generally
highest in the fourth quarter of each year.
NEW PRONOUNCEMENTS ISSUED:
In March, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
("FASB"), through its Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF"), concluded based
on EITF 97-11, "Accounting for Internal Costs Relating to Real Estate
Property Acquisitions," that all internal costs to source, analyze and
close acquisitions should be expensed as incurred. The Company has
historically capitalized these costs in accordance with GAAP. The Company
has adopted the FASB's interpretation effective March 19,1998, and the
impact was approximately $0.04 per share reduction of net income and
FFO-diluted per share for 1998.
In May, 1998, the FASB, through the EITF, modified the timing
of recognition of revenue for percentage rent received from tenants in EITF
98-9, "Accounting for Contingent Rent in Interim Financial Periods." The
Company applied this accounting change as of April 1, 1998. The accounting
change had the effect of deferring $1,792,000 of percentage rent in the
second quarter of 1998 and $972,000 of percentage rent in the third quarter
of 1998. During the fourth quarter of 1998, the FASB reversed EITF 98-9.
Accordingly, the Company has resumed accounting for percentage rent on the
accrual basis. The effect of these changes was that approximately
$2,764,000 was deferred from the second and third quarters of 1998 to the
fourth quarter of 1998.
33
<PAGE>
NEW PRONOUNCEMENTS ISSUED, CONTINUED:
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which will be effective for
the Company's financial statements for periods beginning January 1, 2000.
The new standard requires companies to record derivatives on the balance
sheet, measured at fair value. Changes in the fair values of those
derivatives will be accounted for depending on the use of the derivative
and whether it qualifies for hedge accounting. The key criterion for hedge
accounting is that the hedging relationship must be highly effective in
achieving offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows. The Company has
not yet determined when it will implement SFAS 133 nor has it completed the
complex analysis required to determine the impact on its financial
statements.
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The Company's primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk.
The Company has managed and will continue to manage interest rate risk by
(1) maintaining a conservative ratio of fixed rate, long-term debt to total
debt such that variable rate exposure is kept at an acceptable level, (2)
reducing interest rate exposure on certain long-term variable rate debt
through the use of interest rate caps with appropriately matching
maturities, (3) using treasury rate locks where appropriate to fix rates on
anticipated debt transactions, and (4) taking advantage of favorable market
conditions for long-term debt and/or equity.
The following table sets forth information as of December 31, 1998
concerning the Company's long term debt obligations, including principal
cash flows by scheduled maturity, weighted average interest rates and
estimated fair value ("FV").

Of the total variable rate debt maturing in 1999, $65.1 million was paid in
full on February 4, 1999, and refinanced with a new $100 million fixed rate
loan at an interest rate of 6.74%. The Company is currently in negotiations
to refinance the remaining $85.0 million maturing in 1999 with fixed rate
debt. The $137.0 million of variable debt maturing in 2001 represents the
outstanding borrowings under the Company's credit facility. The credit
facility matures in February 2000, with a one year option to extend the
maturity date to February 2001. The table reflects the Company extending
the maturity date to February 2001.

<PAGE>
ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK, CONTINUED:
In addition, the Company has assessed the market risk for its variable rate
debt and believes that a 1% increase in interest rates would decrease
future earnings and cash flows by approximately $3.8 million per year based
on $379.6 million outstanding at December 31, 1998.
The fair value of the Company's long term debt is estimated based on
discounted cash flows at interest rates that management believes reflects
the risks associated with long term debt of similar risk and duration.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of The Macerich Company:
We have audited the consolidated financial statements and financial statement
schedule of The Macerich Company (the "Company") as listed in Items 14(a)(1) and
(3) of this Form 10-K. These financial statements and financial statement
schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these statements and financial statement schedule
based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of SDG Macerich
Properties, L.P. (the "Partnership") the investment in which is reflected in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements using the equity method of
accounting. The investment in the Partnership represents approximately 10% of
1998 consolidated total assets of the Company, and the equity in its net income
represents approximately 33% of the Company's 1998 consolidated net income.
Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished
to us and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the
Partnership, is based solely on the report of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits and the report of the other auditors provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audits and the report of the other auditors, the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the consolidated financial position of The Macerich Company as of December 31,
1998 and 1997, and the consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows
for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, in our opinion, the
financial statement schedule referred to above, when considered in relation to
the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all
material respects, the information required to be included therein.

THE MACERICH COMPANY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS)
1. ORGANIZATION AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The Macerich Company (the "Company") commenced operations
effective with the completion of the initial public offering (the
"IPO") on March 16, 1994. The Company is the sole general partner of
and holds a 78% ownership interest in The Macerich Partnership, L. P.
(the "Operating Partnership"). The interests in the Operating
Partnership are known as OP Units. OP Units not held by the Company are
redeemable, subject to certain restrictions, on a one-for-one basis,
for the Company's common stock or cash at the Company's option.
The Company was organized to qualify as a real estate
investment trust ("REIT") under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended. The 22% limited partnership interest of the Operating
Partnership not owned by the Company is reflected in these financial
statements as minority interest.
The property management, leasing and redevelopment of the
Company's portfolio is provided by the Macerich Management Company,
Macerich Property Management Company and Macerich Manhattan Management
Company, all California corporations (together referred to hereafter as
the "Management Companies"). The non-voting preferred stock of the
Macerich Management Company and Macerich Property Management Company is
owned by the Operating Partnership, which provides the Operating
Partnership the right to receive 95% of the distributable cash flow
from the Management Companies. Macerich Manhattan Management Company is
a 100% subsidiary of Macerich Management Company.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
The consolidated financial statements of the Company include
the accounts of the Company and the Operating Partnership. The
properties which the Operating Partnership does not own a greater than
50% interest in, and the Management Companies, have been accounted for
under the equity method of accounting. These entities are reflected on
the Company's consolidated financial statements as "Investments in
joint ventures and the Management Companies."
All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have
been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS:
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an
original maturity of 90 days or less when purchased to be cash
equivalents, for which cost approximates market. Included in cash is
restricted cash of $5,954 at December 31, 1998 and $5,810 at December
31, 1997.
TENANT RECEIVABLES:
Included in tenant receivables are allowance for doubtful
accounts of $1,707 and $1,303 at December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.
REVENUES:
Minimum rental revenues are recognized on a straight-line
basis over the terms of the related lease. The difference between the
amount of rent due in a year and the amount recorded as rental income
is referred to as the "straight lining of rent adjustment." Rental
income was increased by $3,814 in 1998, $3,599 in 1997 and $1,832 in
1996 due to the straight lining of rent adjustment. Percentage rents
are recognized on an accrual basis. Recoveries from tenants for real
estate taxes, insurance and other shopping center operating expenses
are recognized as revenues in the period the applicable costs are
incurred.
The Management Companies provide property management, leasing,
corporate, redevelopment and acquisitions services to affiliated and
non-affiliated shopping centers. In consideration for these services,
the Management Companies receive monthly management fees generally
ranging from 1.5% to 5% of the gross monthly rental revenue of the
properties managed.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED:
PROPERTY:
Costs related to the redevelopment, construction and
improvement of properties are capitalized. Interest costs are
capitalized until construction is substantially complete.
Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to
operations as incurred. Realized gains and losses are recognized upon
disposal or retirement of the related assets and are reflected in
earnings.
Property is recorded at cost and is depreciated using a
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as
follows:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Buildings and improvements 5-40 years
Tenant improvements initial term of related lease
Equipment and furnishings 5- 7 years
</TABLE>
The Company assesses whether there has been an impairment in
the value of its long-lived assets by considering factors such as
expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the
effects of demand, competition and other economic factors. Such factors
include the tenants ability to perform their duties and pay rent under
the terms of the leases. The Company may recognize an impairment loss
if the income stream is not sufficient to cover its investment. Such a
loss would be determined between the carrying value and the fair value
of a Center. Management believes no such impairment has occurred in its
net property carrying values at December 31, 1998.
DEFERRED CHARGES:
Costs relating to financing of shopping center properties and
obtaining tenant leases are deferred and amortized over the initial
term of the agreement. The straight-line method is used to amortize all
costs except financing, for which the effective interest method is
used. The range of the terms of the agreements are as follows:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Deferred lease costs 1 - 15 years
Deferred financing costs 1 - 15 years
</TABLE>
DEFERRED ACQUISITION LIABILITY:
As part of the Company's total consideration to the seller of
Capitola Mall, the Company will issue $5,000 of OP Units five years
after the acquisition date, which was December 21, 1995. The number of
OP Units will be determined based on the Company's common stock price
at that time.
INCOME TAXES:
The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. A REIT is generally not
subject to income taxation on that portion of its income that qualifies
as REIT taxable income as long as it distributes at least 95 percent of
its taxable income to its stockholders and complies with other
requirements. Accordingly, no provision has been made for income taxes
in the consolidated financial statements.
On a tax basis, the distributions of $1.865 paid during 1998
represented $1.12 of ordinary income and $0.745 of return of capital
and the distributions of $1.78 per share during 1997 represented $0.96
of ordinary income and $0.82 return of capital. During 1996, the
distributions were $1.70 per share of which $1.14 was ordinary income
and $0.56 was return of capital.
Each partner is taxed individually on its share of partnership
income or loss, and accordingly, no provision for federal and state
income tax is provided for the Operating Partnership in the
consolidated financial statements.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED:
RECLASSIFICATIONS:
Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1996 and 1997
consolidated financial statements to conform to the 1998 financial
statement presentation.
ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS:
In March 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
("FASB"), through its Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF"), concluded
based on EITF 97-11, "Accounting for Internal Costs Relating to Real
Estate Property Acquisitions," that all internal costs to source,
analyze and close acquisitions should be expensed as incurred. The
Company has historically capitalized these costs, in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The Company has
adopted the FASB's interpretation effective March 19, 1998, and the
impact was an approximate $.04 per share reduction in net income
diluted per share for 1998.
In May 1998, the FASB, through the EITF, modified the timing
of recognition of revenue for percentage rent received from tenants in
EITF 98-9, "Accounting for Contingent Rent in Interim Financial
Periods." The Company applied this accounting change as of April 1,
1998. The accounting change had the effect of deferring $1,792 of
percentage rent in the second quarter of 1998 and $972 of percentage
rent in the third quarter of 1998. During the fourth quarter of 1998,
the FASB reversed EITF 98-9. Accordingly, the Company has resumed
accounting for percentage rent on the accrual basis. The effect of
these changes was that approximately $2,764 was deferred from the
second and third quarters of 1998 to the fourth quarter of 1998.
In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which will be effective
for the Company's consolidated financial statements for periods
beginning January 1, 2000. The new standard requires companies to
record derivatives on the balance sheet, measured at fair value.
Changes in the fair values of those derivatives will be accounted for
depending on the use of the derivative and whether it qualifies for
hedge accounting. The key criterion for hedge accounting is that the
hedging relationship must be highly effective in achieving offsetting
changes in fair value or cash flows. The Company has not yet determined
when it will implement SFAS 133 nor has it completed the complex
analysis required to determine the impact on its consolidated financial
statements.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
To meet the reporting requirement of SFAS No. 107,
"Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments," the Company
calculates the fair value of financial instruments and includes this
additional information in the notes to consolidated financial
statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of
those financial instruments. When the fair value reasonably
approximates the carrying value, no additional disclosure is made. The
estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company using
available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies.
However, considerable judgment is required in interpreting market data
to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates
presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the
Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of
different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a
material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.
Interest rate cap agreements are purchased by the Company from
third parties to hedge the risk of interest rate increases on some of
the Company's variable rate debt. The cost of these cap agreements is
amortized over the life of the cap agreement on a straight line basis.
Payments received as a result of the cap agreements are recorded as a
reduction of interest expense. The unamortized costs of the cap
agreements are included in deferred charges. The fair market value of
these caps will vary with fluctuations in interest rates. The Company
is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by these
counter parties to the financial instruments, however, management does
not anticipate nonperformance by the counter parties.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED:
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS, CONTINUED:
The Company periodically enters into treasury lock agreements
in order to hedge its exposure to interest rate fluctuations on
anticipated financings. Under these agreements, the Company pays or
receives an amount equal to the difference between the treasury lock
rate and the market rate on the date of settlement, based on the
notional amount of the hedge. The realized gain or loss on the
contracts is recorded on the balance sheet, in other assets, and
amortized to interest expense over the period of the hedged loans. At
December 31,1998, the Company had one unsettled treasury lock for a
notional amount of $140,000. As of December 31, 1998, the treasury lock
rate was higher than the market rate resulting in an unrealized hedge
liability of approximately $5,935, which has been accrued at December
31, 1998.
EARNINGS PER SHARE ("EPS"):
During 1998, the Company implemented SFAS No. 128, "Earnings
per share." The computation of basic earnings per share is based on net
income and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for
the years ended December 31, 1998, 1997 and 1996. The computation of
diluted earnings per share includes the effect of outstanding
restricted stock and common stock options calculated using the Treasury
stock method. The convertible debentures and convertible preferred
stock were not included in the calculation as the effect of their
inclusion would be antidilutive. The OP Units not held by the Company
have been included in the diluted EPS calculation since they are
redeemable on a one-for-one basis. The following table reconciles the
basic and diluted earnings per share calculation:

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED:
CONCENTRATION OF RISK:
The Company maintains its cash accounts in a number of
commercial banks. Accounts at these banks are guaranteed by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") up to $100. At various times
during the year, the Company had deposits in excess of the FDIC
insurance limit.
Lakewood Mall generated 10.5% of total shopping center
revenues in 1997 and 16% in 1996. Queens Center accounted for 13.8% of
total shopping center revenues in 1996. No Center generated more than
10% of shopping center revenues during 1998.
The Centers derived approximately 89.9% and 89.5% of their
total rents for the year ended December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively, from Mall and Freestanding Stores. The Limited
represented 6.1% and 7.6% of total minimum rents in place as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and no other retailer
represented more than 4.5% and 4.6% of total minimum rents as of
December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
MANAGEMENT ESTIMATES:
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE:
The Company has initiated a Year 2000 compliance program
consisting of the following phases: (1) identification of Year 2000
issues; (2) assessment of Year 2000 compliance of systems; (3)
remediation or replacement of non-compliant systems; (4) testing to
verify compliance; and (5) contingency planning, as appropriate. The
Company is in the process of assessing, remediating and testing both
its information technology ("IT") and non-IT systems. Because the
Company's assessment, remediation and testing efforts are ongoing, the
Company is unable to estimate the actual costs of achieving Year 2000
compliance for its IT and non-IT systems. As of December 31, 1998, the
Company has not expended significant amounts since its evaluation of
Year 2000 issues has been primarily conducted by its own personnel. The
Company is also surveying its material vendors, utilities and tenants
about their plans and progress in addressing the Year 2000 issue.
3. INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES AND THE MANAGEMENT COMPANIES:
The following are the Company's investments in various real
estate joint ventures which own regional retail shopping centers. The
Operating Partnership's interest in each joint venture as of December
31, 1998 is as follows:
<TABLE>

The Operating Partnership also owns the non-voting preferred
stock of the Macerich Management Company and Macerich Property
Management Company and is entitled to receive 95% of the distributable
cash flow of these two entities. Macerich Manhattan Management Company
is a 100% subsidiary of Macerich Management Company. The Company
accounts for the Management Companies and joint ventures using the
equity method of accounting.

3. INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES AND THE MANAGEMENT COMPANIES, CONTINUED:
On February 27, 1998, the Company, through a 50/50 joint
venture, SDG Macerich Properties, L.P., acquired a portfolio of twelve
regional malls. The total purchase price was $974,500 including the
assumption of $485,000 in debt, at market value. The Company funded its
50% of the remaining purchase price by issuing 3,627,131 shares of
Series A cumulative convertible preferred stock ("Series A Preferred
Stock") for gross proceeds totaling $100,000 in a private placement.
The Company also issued 2,879,134 shares of common stock ($79,600 of
total proceeds) under the Company's shelf registration statement. The
balance of the purchase price was funded from the Company's line of
credit. Each of the joint venture partners have assumed leasing and
management responsibilities for six of the regional malls.
On August 19, 1997, the Company acquired a 10% interest in the
joint venture that acquired Manhattan Village Shopping Center
("Manhattan Village") in Manhattan Beach, California.
The results of these joint ventures are included for the
period subsequent to their respective dates of acquisition.
In December 1997, North Valley Plaza, which was 50% owned by
the Company, was sold.
Combined and condensed balance sheets and statements of
operations are presented below for all unconsolidated joint ventures
and the Management Companies, followed by information regarding the
Operating Partnership's beneficial interest in the combined operations.
Beneficial interest is calculated based on the Operating Partnership's
ownership interests in the joint ventures and the Management Companies.

(a) This note was issued at a discount. The discount is being
amortized over the life of the loan using the effective interest
method. At December 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997 the unamortized
discount was $397 and $430, respectively.
(b) This loan is cross collateralized by Green Tree Mall, Crossroads
Mall-Oklahoma and the Centre at Salisbury.
(c) On August 15, 1995, the Company issued $127,000 of collateralized
floating rate notes (the "Notes"). The Notes bear interest at an
average fixed rate of 7.20% and mature in July 2005. The Notes
require the Company to deposit all cash flow from the property
operations with a trustee to meet its obligations under the Notes.
Cash in excess of the required amount, as defined, is released.
Included in cash and cash equivalents is $750 of restricted cash
deposited with the trustee at December 31, 1998 and at 1997.
(d) This represents the monthly payment of principal and interest.

6. MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE, CONTINUED:
(e) This amount represents the monthly payment of principal and
interest. In addition, contingent interest, as defined in the loan
agreement, may be due to the extent that 35% of the amount by
which the property's gross receipts (as defined in the loan
agreement) exceeds a base amount specified therein. Contingent
interest expense recognized by the Company was $387 for the year
ended December 31, 1998 and $98 for the year ended December 31,
1997.
(f) This loan bore interest at LIBOR plus 0.45%. There was an interest
rate protection agreement in place on the first $10,200 of this
debt with a LIBOR ceiling of 5.88% through maturity with the
remaining principal having an interest rate cap with a LIBOR
ceiling of 7.07% through 1997 and 7.7% thereafter. This loan was
paid in full on February 4, 1999 and refinanced with a new loan
of $100,000, with interest at 6.74%, maturing in 2009.
(g) At December 31, 1997, this loan had an interest rate of LIBOR plus
1%, which totaled 6.9%. In July 1998, this loan was reduced by
$1,000 and converted into a fixed rate loan bearing interest at
6.61% and maturing in 2008.
(h) Included in cash and cash equivalents is $3,048 and $3,030 at
December 31, 1998 and 1997 respectively, of cash restricted under
the terms of this loan agreement.
(i) This note was assumed at acquisition. At the time of acquisition
in June 1998, this debt was recorded at fair market value and the
premium is being amortized as interest expense over the life of
the loan using the effective interest method. The monthly debt
service payment is $348 per month and is calculated based on a
12.5% interest rate. At December 31, 1998, the unamortized premium
was $6,165. On February 17, 1999, the loan was paid in full and
was refinanced with a new loan of $65,000, with interest at 7.49%,
maturing in 2009.
(j) The Company incurred a loss on early extinguishment of the old debt in
1998 for $2,345.
(k) These loans bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.0%.
Certain mortgage loan agreements contain a prepayment penalty provision for
the early extinguishment of the debt.
Total interest expense capitalized during 1998, 1997 and 1996 was $3,199,
$2,224, and $461, respectively.
The market value of mortgage notes payable at December 31, 1998 and December
31, 1997 is estimated to be approximately $1,271,853 and $1,013,000,
respectively, based on current interest rates for comparable loans.
The above debt matures as follows:

Perchloroethylene (PCE) has been detected in soil and groundwater in
the vicinity of a dry cleaning establishment at North Valley Plaza, formerly
owned by a joint venture of which the Company was a 50% member. The property was
sold on December 18, 1997. The California Department of Toxic Substances Control
(DTSC) advised the Company in 1995 that very low levels of Dichloroethylene (1,2
DCE), a degradation byproduct of PCE, had been detected in a municipal water
well located 1/4 mile west of the dry cleaners, and that the dry cleaning
facility may have contributed to the introduction of 1,2 DCE into the water
well. According to DTSC, the maximum contaminant level (MCL) for 1,2 DCE which
is permitted in drinking water is 6 parts per billion (ppb). The 1,2 DCE was
detected in the water well at a concentration of 1.2 ppb, which is below the
MCL. The Company has retained an environmental consultant and has initiated
extensive testing of the site. Remediation began in October 1997. The joint
venture agreed (between itself and the buyer) that it would be responsible for
continuing to pursue the investigation and remediation of impacted soil and
groundwater resulting from releases of PCE from the former dry cleaner. $153 and
$124 have already been incurred by the joint venture for remediation, and
professional and legal fees for the periods ending December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively. An additional $408 remains reserved by the joint venture as of
December 31, 1998. The joint venture has been sharing costs on a 50/50 basis
with a former owner of the property and intends to look to additional
responsible parties for recovery.

11. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES, CONTINUED:
Low levels of toluene, a petroleum constituent, was detected in one of
three groundwater dewatering system holding tanks at Queens Center. Although the
Company believes that no remediation will be required, the Company established a
$150 reserve in 1996 to cover professional fees and testing costs, which was
reduced by costs incurred of $2 and $18 for the twelve months ending December
31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. The Company intends to look to the responsible
parties and insurers if remediation is required.
The Company acquired Fresno Fashion Fair in December 1996. Asbestos has
been detected in structural fireproofing throughout much of the Center. Testing
data conducted by professional environmental consulting firms indicates that the
fireproofing is largely inaccessible to building occupants and is well adhered
to the structural members. Additionally, airborne concentrations of asbestos
were well within OSHA's permissible exposure limit (PEL) of .1 fcc. The
accounting for this acquisition includes a reserve of $3,300 to cover future
removal of this asbestos, as necessary. The Company incurred $255 and $170 in
remediation costs for the twelve months ending December 31, 1998 and 1997,
respectively.
12. PROFIT SHARING PLAN:
The Management Companies and the Company have a retirement profit
sharing plan that was established in 1984 covering substantially all of
their eligible employees. The plan is qualified in accordance with section
401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Effective January 1, 1995 this plan
was modified to include a 401(k) plan whereby employees can elect to defer
compensation subject to Internal Revenue Service withholding rules.
Contributions by the Management Companies are made at the discretion of the
Board of Directors and are based upon a specified percentage of employee
compensation. The Management Companies and the Company contributed $513,
$400, $350 to the plan in 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
13. STOCK OPTION PLAN:
The Company has established an employee stock incentive plan under
which stock options or restricted stock may be awarded for the purpose of
attracting and retaining executive officers, directors and key employees.
The Company has issued options to employees and directors to purchase
shares of the Company under the stock incentive plan. The term of these
options is ten years from the grant date. These options generally vest 33
1/3% per year over three years and were issued and are exercisable at the
market value of the common stock at the grant date.
In addition, the Company has established a plan for non employee
directors. The non employee director options have a term of ten years from
the grant date, vest six months after grant and are issued at the market
value of the common stock on the grant date. The plan reserved 25,000
shares, all of which were granted as of December 31, 1998.
215,215 shares of restricted stock also have been issued under the
employees stock incentive plan to executives. These awards are granted
based on certain performance criteria for the Company. The restricted stock
generally vests over 5 years and the compensation expense related to these
grants is determined by market value at vesting date and is amortized over
the vesting period on a straight line basis. As of December 31, 1998 and
1997, 26,039 and 8,248 shares, respectively, of restricted stock had
vested. A total of 83,018 shares at a weighted average price of $28.71 were
issued in 1998, 89,958 shares at a weighted average price of $27.46 were
issued in 1997 and 41,238 shares at a weighted average price of $20.70 were
issued during 1996 and no shares were issued or outstanding in 1995.
Restricted stock is subject to restrictions determined by the Company's
compensation committee. Restricted stock has the same dividend and voting
rights as common stock and is considered issued when vested. Compensation
expense for restricted stock was $944, $239 and $0 in 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively.
Approximately 803,000 and 692,000 additional shares were reserved and
were available for issuance under the stock incentive plan at December 31,
1998 and 1997, respectively. The plan allows for granting options or
restricted stock at market value.

The weighted average exercise price for options granted in 1995 was
$20.25, in 1996 was $21.65, in 1997 was $27.06 and in 1998 was $27.38.
The weighted average remaining contractual life for options outstanding
at December 31, 1998 was 5 years and the weighted average remaining
contractual life for options exercisable at December 31, 1998 was 5 years.
The Company records options granted using Accounting Principles Board
(APB) opinion Number 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees and
Related Interpretations." Accordingly, no compensation expense is
recognized on the date the options are granted. If the Company had recorded
compensation expense using the methodology prescribed in Financial
Accounting Standards Number 123, the Company's net income would have been
reduced by approximately $228 or $0.00 per share for the year ended
December 31, 1998 and $108 or $0.00 per share for the year ended December
31, 1997.
The weighted average fair value of options granted during 1998 and 1997
were $2.01 and $2.51, respectively. The fair value of each option grant
issued in 1998 and 1997 is estimated at the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average
assumptions: (a) dividend yield of 7.8% in 1998 and 7.0% in 1997, (b)
expected volatility of the Company's stock of 17.26% in 1998 and 14.9% in
1997, (c) a risk free interest rate based on U.S. Zero Coupon Bonds with
time of maturity approximately equal to the options' expected time to
exercise and (d) expected option lives of five and seven years for options
granted in 1998 and 1997, respectively.

significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of SDG Macerich Properties,
L.P. as of December 31, 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement
schedule (Schedule III), when considered in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the

(1) GENERAL
(A) PARTNERSHIP ORGANIZATION
On December 29, 1997, affiliates of Simon Property Group, Inc.
(Simon) and affiliates of The Macerich Company (Macerich) formed a
limited partnership to acquire and operate a portfolio of 12
regional shopping centers. The Partnership acquired the properties
on February 27, 1998. The accompanying financial statements
include the results of operations of the properties since the date
of acquisition.
(B) PROPERTIES
Simon and Macerich have divided the property management services
with affiliates of each company managing six of the shopping
centers. The shopping centers and their locations are as follows:
Simon managed properties:
South Park Mall Moline, Illinois
Valley Mall Harrisonburg, Virginia
Granite Run Mall Media, Pennsylvania
Eastland Mall Evansville, Indiana
Lake Square Mall Leesburg, Florida
North Park Mall Davenport, Iowa
Macerich managed properties:
Lindale Mall Cedar Rapids, Iowa
Mesa Mall Grand Junction, Colorado
South Ridge Mall Des Moines, Iowa
Empire Mall and Empire East Sioux Falls, South Dakota
Rushmore Mall Rapid City, South Dakota
Southern Hills Mall Sioux City, Iowa
The shopping center leases generally provide for fixed annual
minimum rent, overage rent based on sales, and reimbursement for
certain operating expenses, including real estate taxes. For
leases in effect at December 31, 1998, fixed minimum rents to be
received in each of the next five years and thereafter are
summarized as follows:

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(A) REVENUES
All leases are classified as operating leases, and minimum rents
are recognized monthly on a straight-line basis over the terms of
the leases.
Most retail tenants are also required to pay overage rents based
on sales over a stated base amount during the lease year,
generally ending on January 31. Overage rents are recognized as
revenues based on reported and estimated sales for each tenant
through December 31. Differences between estimated and actual
amounts are recognized in the subsequent year.
Tenant recoveries for real estate taxes and common area
maintenance are adjusted annually based on the actual expenses,
and the related revenues are recognized in the year in which the
expenses are incurred. Charges for other operating expenses are
billed monthly with periodic adjustments based on the estimated
utility usage and/or a current price index, and the related
revenues are recognized as the amounts are billed and as
adjustments become determinable.
(B) CASH EQUIVALENTS
All highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of
three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.
(C) PROPERTIES
Properties are recorded at cost and are depreciated using the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets
as follows:
Buildings and improvements 39 years
Equipment and furnishings 5-7 years
Tenant improvements Initial term of related lease
Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the
useful life, increase capacity, or improve the efficiency of the
asset. All other repairs and maintenance items are expensed as
incurred.
The Partnership assesses whether there has been an impairment in
the value of its properties by considering factors such as
expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as
the effects of demand, competition and other economic factors.
Such factors include the tenants ability to perform their duties
and pay rent under the terms of the leases. The Partnership would
recognize an impairment loss if the estimated future income stream
is not sufficient to recover its investment. Such a loss would be
the difference between the carrying value and the fair value of a
property. Management believes no impairment in its net property
carrying values has occurred at December 31, 1998.

(D) USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(E) INCOME TAXES
As a partnership, the allocated share of income or loss for the
year is includable in the income tax returns of the partners;
accordingly, income taxes are not reflected in the accompanying
financial statements.
(3) MORTGAGE NOTES PAYABLE AND FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
In connection with the acquisition of the shopping center properties,
the Partnership assumed $485,000 of mortgage notes payable which are
secured by liens on the properties. The notes consist of $300,000 of
debt which is due in May 2006 and requires monthly interest payments at
a fixed weighted average rate of 7.41% and $185,000 of debt which is due
in May 2003 and requires monthly interest payments at a variable
weighted average rate (based on LIBOR) of 6.15% at December 31, 1998.
The variable rate debt is covered by an interest cap agreement which
effectively prevents the variable rate from exceeding 11.53%.
The fair value assigned to the $300,000 fixed-rate debt at the
acquisition date based on an estimated market interest rate of 6.23% was
$322,711, and the resultant debt premium is being amortized to interest
expense over the remaining term of the debt using a level yield method.
At December 31, 1998, the unamortized balance of the debt premium was
$20,868.
The fair value of the fixed-rate debt at December 31, 1998 based on an
interest rate of 6.70% is estimated to be approximately $312,000. The
$185,000 carrying value of the variable-rate debt and the Partnership's
other financial instruments are estimated to equal their fair values.
(4) MANAGEMENT SERVICES
An affiliate of Simon manages six of the properties and an affiliate of
Macerich manages the other six properties, both for a fee of 4% of gross
receipts, as defined. Management fees incurred in 1998 totaled $1,592
for the Simon-managed properties and $1,470 for the Macerich-managed
properties.
(5) CONTINGENT LIABILITY
The Partnership currently is not involved with any litigation other than
routine litigation and administrative proceedings arising in the
ordinary course of business. On the basis of consultation with counsel,
management believes that these items will not have a material adverse
impact on the Company's financial statements.

ARTICLES SUPPLEMENTARY
for
SERIES C JUNIOR PARTICIPATING PREFERRED STOCK
(Pursuant to Sections 2-105(a)(9) and 2-208(a) of the
Maryland General Corporation Law)
-------------------------------------
The Macerich Company, a corporation organized and existing under the
Maryland General Corporation Law (hereinafter called the "Corporation"), hereby
certifies to the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland that:
FIRST: Pursuant to Section 2-208(a) of the Maryland General
Corporation Law and to authority granted by the charter of the Corporation (the
"Charter"), the Board of Directors of the Corporation (hereinafter called the
"Board of Directors" or the "Board") at a meeting duly called and held on
November 10, 1998 (i) reclassified 1,000,000 shares of Excess Stock, par value
$0.01 per share, as Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, with the terms
and conditions as set forth in the Charter, and (ii) designated 1,200,000 shares
of Preferred Stock as shares of Series C Preferred Stock, with the preferences,
conversion and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to
dividends and other distributions, qualifications and terms and conditions of
redemption as follows, which upon any restatement of the Charter shall be made
part of Article Fifth of the Charter, with any necessary or appropriate changes
to the enumeration or lettering of sections or subsections thereof:
Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock
Section 1. DESIGNATION AND AMOUNT. There shall be a series of
Preferred Stock designated as "Series C Junior Participating Preferred Stock",
par value $0.01 per share (the "Series C Preferred Stock"), and the number of
shares constituting the Series C Preferred Stock shall be 1,200,000. Such
number of shares may be increased or decreased by resolution of the Board of
Directors and by the filing of articles supplementary in accordance with the
Maryland General Corporation Law; PROVIDED, that no decrease shall reduce the
number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock to a number less than the number of
shares then outstanding plus the number of shares reserved for issuance upon the
exercise of outstanding options, rights or warrants or upon the conversion of
any outstanding securities issued by the Corporation convertible into Series C
Preferred Stock.

<PAGE>
Section 2. DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS.
(A) Subject to the rights of the holders of any shares of any series
of Preferred Stock (or any similar stock) ranking prior and superior to the
Series C Preferred Stock with respect to dividends, the holders of shares
of Series C Preferred Stock, in preference to the holders of Common Stock,
par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of the Corporation, and of
any other junior stock, shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if
authorized by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the
purpose, quarterly dividends payable in cash on the first day of March,
June, September and December in each year (each such date being referred to
herein as a "Quarterly Dividend Payment Date"), commencing on the first
Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a share or
fraction of a share of Series C Preferred Stock, in an amount per share
(rounded to the nearest cent) equal to the greater of (a) $1 or (b) subject
to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, 100 times the
aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends, and 100 times the
aggregate per share amount (payable in kind) of all non-cash dividends or
other distributions, other than a dividend payable in shares of Common
Stock or a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by
reclassification or otherwise), declared on the Common Stock since the
immediately preceding Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or, with respect to
the first Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, since the first issuance of any
share or fraction of a share of Series C Preferred Stock. In the event the
Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common
Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or
combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by
reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of
Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock,
then in each such case the amount to which holders of shares of Series C
Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under clause
(b) of the preceding sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount
by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common
Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which
is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately
prior to such event.
(B) The Corporation shall declare a dividend or distribution on the
Series C Preferred Stock as provided in paragraph (A) of this Section
immediately after it declares a dividend or distribution on the Common
Stock (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock); provided
that, in the event no dividend or distribution shall have been declared on
the Common Stock during the period between any Quarterly Dividend Payment
Date and the next subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, a dividend of
$1 per share on the Series C Preferred Stock shall nevertheless be payable
on such subsequent Quarterly Dividend Payment Date.
(C) Dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative on outstanding
shares of Series C Preferred Stock from the Quarterly Dividend Payment Date
next preceding the date of issue of such shares, unless the date of issue
of such shares is prior to the record date for the first Quarterly Dividend
Payment Date, in which case dividends on such shares shall begin to accrue
from the date of issue of such shares, or unless the date of is-
2
<PAGE>
sue is a Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or is a date after the record date
for the determination of holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock
entitled to receive a quarterly dividend and before such Quarterly Dividend
Payment Date, in either of which events such dividends shall begin to
accrue and be cumulative from such Quarterly Dividend Payment Date.
Accrued but unpaid dividends shall not bear interest. Dividends paid on
the shares of Series C Preferred Stock in an amount less than the total
amount of such dividends at the time accrued and payable on such shares
shall be allocated pro rata on a share-by-share basis among all such shares
at the time outstanding. The Board of Directors may fix a record date for
the determination of holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock entitled
to receive payment of a dividend or distribution declared thereon, which
record date shall be not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for the
payment thereof.
Section 3. VOTING RIGHTS. The holders of shares of Series C
Preferred Stock shall have the following voting rights:
(A) Subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth,
each share of Series C Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to
100 votes on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the
Corporation. In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay
any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or
effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by payment of
a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number of
shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the number of votes per
share to which holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock were entitled
immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted by multiplying such
number by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator
of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding
immediately prior to such event.
(B) Except as otherwise provided herein, in the terms of any other
series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock, the holders of shares of
Series C Preferred Stock and the holders of shares of Common Stock and any
other stock of the Corporation having general voting rights shall vote
together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of
the Corporation.
(C) Except as set forth herein, holders of Series C Preferred Stock
shall have no special voting rights and their consent shall not be required
(except to the extent they are entitled to vote with holders of Common
Stock as set forth herein) for taking any corporate action.
Section 4. CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS.
(A) Whenever quarterly dividends or other dividends or distributions
payable on the Series C Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2 are in
arrears, thereafter and until all accrued and unpaid dividends and
distributions, whether or not authorized or de-
3
<PAGE>
clared, on shares of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding shall have been
paid in full, neither the Board of Directors nor the Corporation shall:
(i) authorize, declare or pay dividends, or make any other
distributions, on any shares of stock ranking junior (either as to
dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the
Series C Preferred Stock;
(ii) authorize, declare or pay dividends, or make any other
distributions, on any shares of stock ranking on a parity (either as
to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the
Series C Preferred Stock, except dividends paid ratably on the Series
C Preferred Stock and all such parity stock on which dividends are
payable or in arrears in proportion to the total amounts to which the
holders of all such shares are then entitled;
(iii) redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration
shares of any stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon
liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series C Preferred
Stock, provided that the Corporation may at any time redeem, purchase
or otherwise acquire shares of any such junior stock in exchange for
shares of any stock of the Corporation ranking junior (either as to
dividends or upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up) to the
Series C Preferred Stock; or
(iv) redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration
any shares of Series C Preferred Stock, or any shares of stock ranking
on a parity with the Series C Preferred Stock, except in accordance
with a purchase offer made in writing or by publication (as determined
by the Board of Directors) to all holders of such shares upon such
terms as the Board of Directors, after consideration of the respective
annual dividend rates and other relative rights and preferences of the
respective series and classes, shall determine in good faith will
result in fair and equitable treatment among the respective series or
classes.
(B) The Corporation shall not permit any subsidiary of the
Corporation to purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares
of stock of the Corporation unless the Corporation could, under paragraph
(A) of this Section 4, purchase or otherwise acquire such shares at such
time and in such manner.
Section 5. REACQUIRED SHARES. Any shares of Series C Preferred Stock
purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever
shall become authorized but unissued shares of Preferred Stock and may be
reissued as part of a new series of Preferred Stock subject to the conditions
and restrictions on issuance set forth herein, in the Charter, or in any other
articles supplementary creating a series of Preferred Stock or any similar stock
or as otherwise required by law.
Section 6. LIQUIDATION, DISSOLUTION OR WINDING UP. Upon any
liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, no distribution shall
be made (1) to the holders of shares of stock ranking junior (either as to
dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding
4
<PAGE>
up) to the Series C Preferred Stock unless, prior thereto, the holders of shares
of Series C Preferred Stock shall have received $100 per share, plus an amount
equal to accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions thereon, whether or not
authorized or declared, to the date of such payment, provided that the holders
of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive an aggregate
amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth,
equal to 100 times the aggregate amount to be distributed per share to holders
of shares of Common Stock, or (2) to the holders of shares of stock ranking on a
parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up)
with the Series C Preferred Stock, except distributions made ratably on the
Series C Preferred Stock and all such parity stock in proportion to the total
amounts to which the holders of all such shares are entitled upon such
liquidation, dissolution or winding up. In the event the Corporation shall at
any time declare or pay any dividend on the Common Stock payable in shares of
Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the
outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise than by
payment of a dividend in shares of Common Stock) into a greater or lesser number
of shares of Common Stock, then in each such case the aggregate amount to which
holders of shares of Series C Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior
to such event under the proviso in clause (1) of the preceding sentence shall be
adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction the numerator of which is the
number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and
the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were
outstanding immedately prior to such event.
Section 7. CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, ETC. In case the Corporation shall
enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction in which
the shares of Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or
securities, cash and/or any other property, then in any such case each share of
Series C Preferred Stock shall at the same time be similarly exchanged or
changed into an amount per share, subject to the provision for adjustment
hereinafter set forth, equal to 100 times the aggregate amount of stock,
securities, cash and/or any other property (payable in kind), as the case may
be, into which or for which each share of Common Stock is changed or exchanged.
In the event the Corporation shall at any time declare or pay any dividend on
the Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or
combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by
reclassification or otherwise than by payment of a dividend in shares of Common
Stock) into a greater or lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each
such case the amount set forth in the preceding sentence with respect to the
exchange or change of shares of Series C Preferred Stock shall be adjusted by
multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the
denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were
outstanding immediately prior to such event.
Section 8. NO REDEMPTION. The shares of Series C Preferred Stock
shall not be redeemable.
Section 9. RANK. The Series C Preferred Stock shall rank, with
respect to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets, junior to
all series of the Corporation's Preferred Stock.
5
<PAGE>
Section 10. AMENDMENT. The Charter shall not be amended in any
manner which would materially alter or change the preferences, conversion and
other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends and other
distributions, qualifications or terms and conditions of redemption of the
Series C Preferred Stock, as set forth herein, so as to affect them adversely
without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the
outstanding shares of Series C Preferred Stock, voting together as a single
class.
Section 11. OWNERSHIP RESTRICTIONS. The Series C Preferred Stock
shall be subject to the restrictions and limitations set forth in Article Eighth
of the Charter.
SECOND: The Shares have been classified and designated by the Board
of Directors under the authority contained in the Charter.
THIRD: These Articles Supplementary have been approved by the Board
of Directors in the manner and by the vote required by law.
FOURTH: The undersigned Chairman of the Board of the Corporation

Corporation and, as to all matters or facts required to be verified under oath,
the undersigned Chairman acknowledges that to the best of his knowledge,
information and belief, these matters and facts are true in all material

The securities represented by this certificate are subject to restrictions
on ownership and transfer for the purpose of the Corporation's maintenance of
its status as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Except as otherwise provided pursuant to
the charter of the Corporation, no Person may (1) Beneficially Own shares of
Equity Stock in excess of 5.0% (or such greater percentage as may be provided
in the charter of the Corporation) of the number or value of the outstanding
Equity Stock of the Corporation (unless such Person is an Excluded
Participant), or (2) Beneficially Own Equity Stock that would result in the
Corporation being "closely held" under Section 856(h) of the Code (determined
without regard to Code Section 856(h)(2) and by deleting the words "the last
half of" in the first sentence of Code Section 542(a)(2) in applying Code
Section 856(h)), or (3) beneficially own Equity Stock that would result in
Common Stock and Preferred Stock being beneficially owned by fewer than 100
Persons (determined without reference to any rules of attribution). Any
Person who attempts to Beneficially Own Shares of Equity Stock in excess of
the above limitations must immediately notify the Corporation. All
capitalized terms in this legend have the meanings defined in the
Corporation's charter, as the same may be further amended from time to time,
a copy of which, including the restrictions on ownership or transfer, will be
sent without charge to each stockholder who so requests. Transfers or other
events in violation of the restrictions described above shall be null and
void AB INITIO, and the purported transferee or purported owner shall acquire
or retain no rights to, or economic interest in, any Equity Stock held in
violation of these restrictions. The Corporation may redeem such shares upon
the terms and conditions specified by the Board of Directors in its sole
discretion if the Board of Directors determines that a Transfer or other
event would violate the restrictions described above. In addition, if the

WHEREAS, The Macerich Company, the general partner of the Partnership
(the "GENERAL PARTNER"), will be issuing to The Ontario Teachers Pension Plan
Board ("Ontario Teachers"), 5,487,471 shares of Series B Cumulative Convertible
Redeemable Preferred Stock, $.01 par value per share ("SERIES B PREFERRED
SHARES"), pursuant to the Series B Preferred Securities Purchase Agreement dated
as of June 16, 1998 between the General Partner and Ontario Teachers (the
"Purchase Agreement");
WHEREAS, SECTION 3.3 (a)(i) of the Agreement authorizes the General
Partner to cause the Partnership to issue additional interests in the
Partnership in one or more classes, or one or more series of any of such
classes, with such designations, preferences and relative, participating,
optional or other special rights, powers and duties, including rights, powers
and duties senior to those of the Limited Partners, all as shall be determined
by the General Partner in its sole and absolute discretion and without the
approval of any of the Limited Partners; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any such
additional interests in the Partnership must be issued in connection with an
issuance of shares of or other interests in the General Partner, which shares or
interests have designations, preferences and other rights, all such that the
economic interests are substantially similar to the designations, preferences
and other rights of the additional interests in the Partnership being issued to
the General Partner by the Partnership in accordance with SECTION 3.3. OF THE
AGREEMENT, and the General Partner shall make a capital contribution to the
Partnership in an amount equal to the proceeds raised in connection with the
issuance of such shares of or other interests in the General Partner;
WHEREAS, SECTION 12.1(b)(iii) of the Agreement provides that the
General Partner has the power, without the consent of the Limited Partners of
the Partnership, to amend the Agreement as may be required to facilitate or
implement setting forth the designations, rights, powers, duties, and
preferences of the holders of any additional interests in the Partnership issued
pursuant to SECTION 3.3;
WHEREAS, the General Partner has made the determination pursuant to
SECTION 12.1(b)(iii) of the Agreement that consent of the Limited Partners of

Amendment; and
<PAGE>
WHEREAS, all things necessary to make this Amendment a valid agreement
of the Partnership have been done;
NOW, THEREFORE, pursuant to the authority granted to the General
Partner under the Agreement, the Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
1. Amendments:
(a) Section 2.2 of the Agreement is hereby amended by inserting the
following new Section 2.2(d) to read as follows:
(d) SERIES B PREFERRED UNITS. The General Partner hereby makes
a capital contribution to the Partnership in the amount of the gross
proceeds from the sale of the Series B Preferred Shares to Ontario Teachers
pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, which amount is $150,000,019.70. In
exchange for such capital contribution, the Partnership hereby issues to
the General Partner 5,487,471 Series B Preferred Units, each Series B
Preferred Unit representing a capital contribution of $27.335. Series B
Preferred Units shall entitle the General Partner to a Series B Preferred
Return, all as described in SECTION 4.1 of the Agreement. Series B
Preferred Units shall be converted into Common Units at the time the Series
B Preferred Shares are converted into common shares of the General Partner
in an amount of Common Units equal to the total amount of such converted
common shares divided by the Conversion Factor. To the extent that Series
B Preferred Shares are being redeemed, the General Partner shall be
obligated to put to the Partnership a number of Series B Preferred Units
equal to the number of Series B Preferred Shares being redeemed or repaid.
Upon putting a Series B Preferred Unit to the Partnership, the General
Partner will be paid, in liquidation of each Series B Preferred Unit being
put to the Partnership, an amount equal to $27.335 plus any accumulated,
accrued and unpaid Series B Preferred Return on such Series B Preferred
Unit, PLUS any other amounts owed or to be paid by the General Partner in
connection with the redemption of the corresponding Series B Preferred
Share; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the General Partner shall not put the Series
B Preferred Units to the Partnership if the payment in liquidation of those
Series B Preferred Units would cause the Partnership or the General Partner
to be in violation of (i) any provision of any agreement with respect to
indebtedness, including the Credit and Guaranty Agreement and those
agreements with respect to the Convertible Subordinated Debentures (the
"Debt Instruments"), or (ii) Section 17-607 of the Act. Before any Series
B Preferred Units may be put to the Partnership, the General Partner shall
determine in good faith that the redemption of such Series B Preferred
Units will not cause a violation of the Debt Instruments or Section 17-607
of the Act. To the extent the General Partner is not permitted to make a
payment in respect of the Series B Preferred Shares by reason of a
restriction imposed by the Debt Instruments or Section 17-607 of the Act,
the Partnership shall not, and shall not be obligated to, make any such
payment to the General Partner with respect to the corresponding Series B
Preferred Units.
(b) Section 4.1 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:
4.1 DISTRIBUTION OF NET CASH FLOW. The General Partner shall
cause the Partnership to distribute all or a portion of Net Cash Flow to
the Partners from time to
2
<PAGE>
time as determined by the General Partner, but in any event not less
frequently than quarterly, in such amounts as the General Partner shall
determine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the General Partner shall use
its reasonable efforts to cause the Partnership to distribute sufficient
amounts to enable the General Partner to pay shareholder dividends that
will (a) satisfy the requirements for qualifying as a REIT under the Code
and Regulations ("REIT REQUIREMENTS"), and (b) avoid any federal income or
excise tax liability of the General Partner. All amounts withheld pursuant
to the Code or a provision of any state or local tax law with respect to
any allocation, payment or distribution to the General Partner or any
Limited Partner shall be treated as amounts distributed to such Partner.
Upon the receipt by the General Partner of each Exercise Notice pursuant to
which one or more Redemption Partners exercise Redemption Rights in
accordance with the provisions of ARTICLE IX and the Redemption Rights
Exhibit, the General Partner shall, unless the General Partner has elected
to issue only Shares to such Redemption Partners in respect of the Purchase
Price of the Offered Interests, cause the Partnership to distribute to the
Partners, PRO RATA in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests
as of the date of delivery of such Exercise Notice, all (or such lesser
portion as the General Partner shall reasonably determine to be prudent
under the circumstances) of Net Cash Flow, which distribution shall be made
prior to the closing of the redemption or purchase and sale of the Offered
Interests specified in such Exercise Notice. Subject to any restrictions
or limitations imposed by the Debt Instruments or Section 17-607 of the
Act, distributions shall be made in accordance with the following order of
priority:
(a) First, semi-annual distributions to the General Partner with
respect to the Preferred Units in an amount equal to the cumulative and
unpaid Preferred Return on such Preferred Units in such a way as to allow
the General Partner to pay interest and any additional amounts on the
Convertible Subordinated Debentures payable to the holders thereof;
(b) Second, to the General Partner, with respect to the Series A
Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units, in an amount equal to the
cumulative and unpaid Series A Preferred Return on such Series A Preferred
Units, and the cumulative and unpaid Series B Preferred Return on such
Series B Preferred Units in such a way as to allow the General Partner to
pay cumulative preferential dividends and any additional amounts required
on the Series A Preferred Shares and the Series B Preferred Shares,
respectively, payable to the holders thereof; and
(c) Next, to the Partners holding Common Units, PRO RATA in
accordance with such Partners' then Percentage Interests.
(c) The definition of the term "Partnership Interest" contained in
the Glossary of Defined Terms of the Agreement is hereby amended to read as
follows:
"PARTNERSHIP INTEREST" shall mean an ownership interest of a
Partner in the Partnership from time to time, including, as applicable,
such Partner's Preferred Units, Series A Preferred Units, Series B
Preferred Units and Percentage Interest and such Partner's Capital Account,
and any and all other benefits to which the holder of such Partnership
Interest may be entitled as provided in this Agreement, together with all
obligations of such Person to comply with the terms of this Agreement.

<PAGE>
(d) The definition of the term "Partnership Unit" contained in the
Glossary of Defined Terms of the Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:
"PARTNERSHIP UNIT" shall mean a Common Unit, Preferred Unit,
Series A Preferred Unit or Series B Preferred Unit and shall constitute a
fractional, undivided share of the Partnership Interests corresponding to
that particular class of Units.
(e) The definition of the term "Common Unit" contained in the
Glossary of Defined Terms of the Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:
"COMMON UNIT" shall mean Partnership Interests other than Preferred Units,
Series A Preferred Units and Series B Preferred Units.
(f) The Glossary of Defined Terms of the Agreement is hereby amended
to include the following definitions:
"SERIES B PREFERRED RETURN" shall mean an amount per Series B
Preferred Unit equal to the greater of (i) an annual distribution of $1.84
or (ii) the regular cash distributions on the Common Units, or portion
thereof, into which a Series B Preferred Unit is convertible. The Series B
Preferred Return will be based on the General Partner's Capital
Contribution in respect of the Series B Preferred Units for which the
Series B Preferred Return is being determined as provided in the definition
of Series B Preferred Units below (taking into account any reduction of
such Capital Contribution by any redemptions or conversions of such Series
B Preferred Units), commencing on the first date such Series B Preferred
Units are issued to the General Partner. It is intended that the Series B
Preferred Return will be equal to the dividends and any additional amounts
payable on the Series B Preferred Shares to the holders thereof so that the
General Partner will receive a Series B Preferred Return in an amount
sufficient for the General Partner to make all payments in respect of the
Series B Preferred Shares.
"SERIES B PREFERRED SHARES" shall mean those shares of Series B Cumulative
Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock, $.01 par value per share; issued by
the General Partner to Ontario Teachers.
"SERIES B PREFERRED SHARES ARTICLES SUPPLEMENTARY" shall mean the Series B
Cumulative Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock Articles Supplementary,
dated as of June 15, 1998, which fixes the distribution and other
preferences and rights of the Series B Preferred Shares.
"SERIES B PREFERRED UNITS" shall mean the Partnership Units of the General
Partner representing the Capital Contribution of the Series B Preferred
Share proceeds, as set forth in SECTION 2.2(d) of the Agreement. For the
purposes of this Agreement, if the proceeds actually received by the
General Partner are less than the gross proceeds of the issuance of the
Series B Preferred Shares as a result of any discount, placement fee or
other expenses paid or incurred in connection with such issuance, then the
General Partner shall be deemed to have made a Capital Contribution to the
Partnership in the amount of the gross proceeds of such issuance and the
Partnership shall be deemed simultaneously to have reimbursed the General
Partner pursuant to SECTION 6.1 for the amount of such discount, placement
fee or other expenses.

<PAGE>
(g) Section 2.1 of Exhibit A (Allocations Exhibit) is hereby amended to
read as follows:
2.1 NET INCOME. After giving effect to the special allocations set
forth in Article 3 of this Allocations Exhibit, Net Income for any
fiscal year or other applicable period shall be allocated in the
following order and priority:
(a) First, to the Partners, until the cumulative Net Income
allocated pursuant to this subparagraph 2.1(a) for the current and all
prior periods equals the cumulative Net Loss allocated pursuant to
subparagraphs 2.2(c) and (d) hereof for all prior periods, among the
Partners in the reverse order that such Net Loss was allocated (and, in the
event of a shift of a Partner's interest in the Partnership, to the
Partners in a manner that most equitably reflects the successors in
interest of such Partners);
(b) Second, to the General Partner, until the cumulative Net
Income allocated pursuant to this subparagraph 2.1(b) for the current and
all prior periods equals the cumulative Net Loss allocated pursuant to
Subparagraph 2.2(b) hereof for all prior periods;
(c) Third in respect of its Preferred Units to the General

Units, respectively; and
(e) Thereafter, the balance of the Net Income, if any, shall be
allocated to the Partners holding Common Units in accordance with their
respective Percentage Interests.

TITLE, PURPOSE AND AUTHORIZED SHARES
1.1 TITLE
This Program shall be known as The Macerich Company 1999 Cash
Bonus/Restricted Stock Program under the Amended and Restated 1994 Incentive
Plan.
1.2 PURPOSE
The purpose of this Program is to promote the success of the Company and
the interest of its stockholders by providing an additional means to
attract, motivate, retain and reward key employees, including officers, by
providing an opportunity to convert cash bonuses to Restricted Stock Awards,
enhancing compensation deferral opportunities and offering additional
incentives to increase stock ownership in the Company.
1.3 SHARES
The aggregate number of shares subject to Restricted Stock Awards
granted pursuant to this Program shall be charged against and subject to the
limits on the available shares under the Plan.
ARTICLE II
DEFINITIONS
Whenever the following terms are used in this Program they shall have
the meaning specified below unless the context clearly indicates to the
contrary. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined shall have the meaning
assigned to such terms in the Plan.
2.1. BONUS PAYMENT DATE means the date designated by the Committee
(upon or after its decisions as to awards) on which the Cash Bonus is or
would otherwise be received by the Participant.
2.2 CASH BONUS means an incentive award granted by the Committee,
whether or not under the terms of the Plan, that but for elections under this
Program would be paid solely in cash.
2.3 CONVERSION AMOUNT means the dollar amount of the Cash Bonus elected
by the Participant to be converted to a Restricted Stock Award under this
Program.
2.4 EFFECTIVE DATE means November 30, 1998.
1
<PAGE>
2.5. PARTICIPANT means any Eligible Person who has been designated as
potentially eligible to receive a Restricted Stock Award under this Program
and who has delivered to the Company an election agreement electing to
participate in the Program.
2.6. PLAN means The Macerich Company Amended and Restated 1994 Incentive
Plan.
2.7. PROGRAM means this The Macerich Company 1999 Cash Bonus/Restricted
Stock Program under the Amended and Restated 1994 Incentive Plan.
2.8. RESTRICTED STOCK means shares of Common Stock awarded to a
Participant pursuant to Article IV of the Plan.

by the Committee under the Plan based on the Conversion Amount elected under
and in accordance with this Program.
2.10. RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT means an agreement substantially
in the form of Exhibit B (as from time to time revised by the Committee).
2.11 YEAR means the applicable calendar year.
ARTICLE III
PARTICIPATION
Each Eligible Person designated by the Committee for any Year may elect
in advance to receive all or part (in increments and on forms authorized by
the Committee) of any Cash Bonus that may be granted in the future in the
form of Restricted Stock to the extent provided in Article IV.
ARTICLE IV
RESTRICTED STOCK OR CASH ELECTIONS
4.1. TIME AND TYPES OF ELECTIONS
On or before December 31, 1998 and September 30 of each subsequent Year,
each Eligible Person may make an irrevocable election to receive a percentage
of Cash Bonus that may be granted to the Participant during the following
Year in shares of Restricted Stock. This election shall become effective
only if the Committee, in authorizing the Cash Bonus, expressly recognizes
such alternative payment opportunity in Restricted Stock and grants the
Restricted Stock at that time. A person who first becomes an Eligible Person
after the applicable deadline may, within 30 days of becoming and being
designated as an Eligible Person, make an irrevocable election to receive any
Cash Bonuses granted during the applicable Year (or remaining portion
thereof, as the case may be) in Restricted Stock.
2
<PAGE>
4.2. ELECTION PROCEDURES
The elections shall be made in writing on forms provided by the Company
and authorized by the Committee. These forms initially shall take the form
of the Election Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A. Neither the
distribution nor completion of election agreements shall convey any right to
receive a bonus, in cash or in Restricted Stock. Failure to timely elect
Restricted Stock, however, will result in the payment in cash if any cash
bonus is awarded.
4.3 NUMBER OF SHARES
The number of shares of Restricted Stock to be granted under this
Program shall equal a multiple of the Conversion Amount divided by the Fair
Market Value of a share of Common Stock (without regard to any restriction)
on the applicable Bonus Payment Date. The multiple shall not be changed as
to any election after it is duly made under the terms of this Program without
the consent of the Participant.
The multiple for bonuses paid in 1999 and until changed by the Committee
shall be 1.5. For example, assume that prior to December 31, 1998 a
Participant elects to receive 40% of any cash bonus in Restricted Stock and,
on March 1, 1999, the Company grants him a $40,000 cash bonus. The market
value of a share of Common Stock on the Bonus Payment Date is $20. The
Participant will receive $24,000 in cash and 1,200 shares of Restricted Stock.
4.4. NO FRACTIONAL SHARE INTERESTS
If an election would result in the issuance of a fractional share, the
amount of Restricted Stock granted shall be rounded down to the next whole
share and the cash alternative amount in lieu of the fractional interest
shall be paid in cash.
ARTICLE V
RESTRICTED STOCK AWARDS
The grant of Restricted Stock Awards, including, but not limited to, the
terms of grant, conditions and restrictions, the consideration to be paid,
dividend rights, vesting, redelivery to the Company, and adjustments in case
of changes in the Common Stock, shall be governed by the terms of the Plan,
the Program and of the Restricted Stock Award Agreement, substantially in the
form of Exhibit B (as from time to time revised by the Committee), to be
executed and delivered by the Company and the Participant. After an election
is made, the form of the Restricted Stock Award Agreement may not be changed
in any manner materially adverse to the Participant without his or her
consent. All Restricted Stock Awards are subject to express prior
authorization by the Committee of the terms of the Restricted Stock Award and
the specific number of shares of Restricted Stock thereunder.
3
<PAGE>
ARTICLE VI
ADMINISTRATION
This Program shall be administered by and all Restricted Stock Awards to
Eligible Persons shall be authorized by the Committee. The Committee shall
have all powers necessary to accomplish those purposes, including, but not by
way of limitation, the following:
(a) to determine the particular Eligible Persons who will receive Cash
Bonuses, the extent to which and price at which a Cash Bonus may be settled
in shares of Common Stock or Restricted Stock, and the other specific terms
and conditions of Restricted Stock Awards consistent with the express limits
of this Program and the Plan;
(b) to approve from time to time the election agreement and other forms
of Restricted Stock Award Agreements (which need not be identical either as
to type of award or among Participants or from year to year); and
(c) to resolve any questions concerning benefits payable to a
Participant and make all other determinations and take such other action as
contemplated by this Program or the Plan or as may be necessary or advisable
for the administration or interpretation of this Program.
ARTICLE VII
MISCELLANEOUS
7.1. INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE
Except where in conflict with the express terms of this Program, the
terms of the Plan govern the Program and are incorporated by reference,
including, without limitation, the following: the administrative powers and
authority of the Committee and the effect of its decisions; the unfunded
status of benefits; provisions for non-transferability of rights; rights (or
absence of rights) of eligible persons, participants, and beneficiaries;
compliance with laws; tax withholding obligation of Participants; privileges
of stock ownership; and governing law/construction/severability.
7.2. AMENDMENT, TERMINATION AND SUSPENSION
The Committee or the Board may, at any time, terminate or, from time to
time, amend, modify or suspend this Program, in whole or in part. No
Restricted Stock Awards may be granted under this Program during any
suspension of this Program or after termination of this Program. Termination
or amendment of this Program shall have no effect on any then outstanding
Restricted Stock Awards.
7.3. TERM OF THIS PROGRAM
The term of this Program is indefinite, subject to the term of the Plan
and Section 7.2. All authority of the Committee with respect to Restricted
Stock Awards hereunder, including its authority to amend a Restricted Stock

<PAGE>
7.4. NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF PROGRAM
Nothing in this Program shall limit or be deemed to limit the authority
of the Board or the Committee to grant awards or authorize any other
compensation, with or without reference to the Common Stock, under the Plan
or any other plan or authority.
7.5 RELATIONSHIP TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS
In the case of any Participant who has an employment agreement with the
Company, the Conversion Amount reflected by a Restricted Stock Award shall
not be, but any remaining cash amount paid as a Cash Bonus shall be,
considered a bonus paid in the applicable Year in which it is paid. The
consequences of a termination of service, whether before or after a Change in
Control, in respect of any benefits related to the Conversion Amount shall be
governed solely by the terms of the Restricted Stock Award.

of December 31, 1998, all other restricted stock awards vested at the 20%
rate. The Committee has the authority to authorize or to change the vesting
schedules.

cash that would otherwise have been payable to the Employee but for the
Employee's election to receive Restricted Stock under the Program, or (2) in
other cases, not less than the aggregate par value of the shares, which
amount in either case is not less than the minimum lawful consideration under
Maryland law.
3. VESTING. The Award shall vest, and restrictions (other than those
set forth in Section 6.4 of the Plan) shall lapse, with respect to the
portion of the total number of shares (subject to adjustment under Section
6.2 of the Plan) on each of the anniversaries of the Award Date until the
Award is fully vested, as reflected in the Vesting Schedule above, subject to
earlier termination or acceleration as provided herein or in the Plan.
4. DIVIDEND AND VOTING RIGHTS. After the Award Date, the Employee shall
be entitled to cash dividends and voting rights with respect to the shares of
Restricted Stock subject to the Award even though such shares are not vested,
provided that such rights shall terminate immediately as to any shares of
Restricted Stock that cease to be eligible for vesting.
5. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. Prior to the time they become vested,
neither the shares of Restricted Stock comprising the Award, nor any other
rights of the Employee under this Agreement or the Plan may be transferred,
except as expressly provided in Sections 1.9 and 4.1 of the Plan. No other
exceptions have been authorized by the Committee.
6. STOCK CERTIFICATES.
(a) BOOK ENTRY FORM; INFORMATION STATEMENT POWER OF ATTORNEY. The
Corporation shall issue the shares of Restricted Stock subject to the Award
in book entry form, registered in the name of the Employee with notations
regarding applicable restrictions on transfer. Concurrent with the execution
and delivery of this Agreement, the Corporation shall deliver to the Employee
a written information statement with respect to such shares, and the Employee
shall deliver to the Corporation an executed stock power, in blank, with
respect to such shares. The Employee, by acceptance of the Award, shall be
deemed to appoint the Corporation and each of its authorized representatives
as the Employee's attorney(s)-in-fact to effect any transfer of unvested
forfeited shares (or shares otherwise reacquired by the Corporation
hereunder) to the Corporation as may be required pursuant to the Plan or this
Agreement and to execute such documents as the Corporation or such
representatives deem necessary or advisable in connection with any such
transfer.
(b) CERTIFICATES TO BE HELD BY CORPORATION; LEGEND. Any
certificates representing Restricted Stock that the Employee may be entitled
to receive from the Corporation prior to vesting shall be redelivered to the
Corporation to be held by the Corporation until the restrictions on such
shares shall have lapsed and the shares shall thereby have become vested or
the shares represented thereby have been forfeited hereunder. Such
certificates shall bear the following legend:
"The transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented
hereby are subject to the terms and conditions contained in an Agreement
entered into between the registered owner, The Macerich Partnership L.P. and
The Macerich Company. A copy of
2
<PAGE>
such Agreement is on file in the office of the Secretary of The Macerich
Company, 401 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 700, Santa Monica, California
90401."
(c) DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES UPON VESTING. Promptly after the lapse
or other release of restrictions, a certificate or certificates evidencing
the number of shares of Common Stock as to which the restrictions have lapsed
or been released or such lesser number as may be permitted pursuant to
Section 6.5 of the Plan shall be delivered to the Employee or other person
entitled under the Plan to receive the shares. The Employee or such other
person shall deliver to the Corporation any representations or other
documents or assurances required pursuant to Section 6.4 of the Plan. The
shares so delivered shall no longer be restricted shares hereunder.
7. EFFECT OF TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.
(a) FORFEITURE AFTER CERTAIN EVENTS. Except as provided in Sections
7(c) and 8 hereof, the Employee's shares of Restricted Stock shall be
forfeited to the extent such shares have not become vested upon the date the
Employee is no longer employed by the Company for any reason, whether with or
without cause, voluntarily or involuntarily. If an entity ceases to be a
Subsidiary, such action shall be deemed to be a termination of employment of
all employees of that entity, but the Committee, in its sole and absolute
discretion, may make provision in such circumstances for accelerated vesting
of some or all of the remaining restricted shares under any Awards held by
such employees, effective immediately prior to such event.
(b) RETURN OF SHARES. Upon the occurrence of any forfeiture of
shares of Restricted Stock hereunder, such unvested, forfeited shares shall,
without payment of any consideration by the Corporation for such transfer, be
automatically transferred to the Corporation, without any other action by the
Employee, or the Employee's Beneficiary or Personal Representative, as the
case may be. The Corporation may exercise its powers under Section 6(a)
hereof and take any other action necessary or advisable to evidence such
transfer. The Employee, or the Employee's Beneficiary or Personal
Representative, as the case may be, and the Operating Partnership shall
deliver any additional documents of transfer that the Corporation may request
to confirm the transfer of such unvested, forfeited shares to the Corporation.
(c) TERMINATION WITHOUT CAUSE FOLLOWING CHANGE IN CONTROL EVENT. If
the Employee's employment is terminated by the Company other than because of
Employee's death or Disability or for Cause, or if the Employee after a
Change in Control Event terminates his or her employment for Good Reason,
then any portion of the Award that has not previously vested shall thereupon
vest, subject to the provisions of Sections 6.4 and 6.5 of the Plan and
Section 11 hereof; provided, however, that in no event shall restrictions on
the shares lapse or the shares vest earlier than six months after the date
hereof. As used in this Agreement, "Disability" shall mean (1) a "permanent
and total disability" within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, (2)
the absence of Employee from his or her duties with the Company on a
full-time basis for a period of nine months as a result of incapacity due to
mental or physical illness which is determined to be total and permanent by a
physician selected by the Company or its insurers and acceptable to the
Employee or the Employee's legal representative (such agreement as to
acceptability not to be withheld unreasonably), or (3) such other
disabilities, infirmities,
3
<PAGE>
afflictions or conditions as the Committee by rule may include. "Incapacity"
as used in this Agreement shall be limited only to a condition that
substantially prevents the Employee from performing his or her duties.
"Cause" as used in this Agreement shall mean that the Company, acting in good
faith based upon the information then known to the Company, determines that
the Employee has: (1) failed to perform required job duties in a material
respect without proper cause, (2) been convicted of a felony, or (3)
committed an act of fraud, dishonesty or gross misconduct which is injurious
to the Company. "Good Reason" as used in this Agreement shall mean (1) a
materially adverse and significant change in the Employee's position, duties,
responsibilities, or status with the Company, (2) a change in the Employee's
office location to a point more than 50 miles from the Employee's office
immediately prior to a Change in Control, (3) the taking of any action
following a Change in Control by the Company to eliminate benefit plans
without providing reasonable substitutes therefor, to materially reduce
benefits thereunder or to substantially diminish the aggregate value of
incentive awards or other fringe benefits, (4) any reduction in the
Employee's base salary, or (5) any material breach by the Company of the
written employment contract with Employee, if any.
8. EFFECT OF DISABILITY, DEATH OR RETIREMENT. If the Employee incurs a
Disability or dies while employed by the Company, then any portion of his or
her Award that has not previously vested shall thereupon vest, subject to the
provisions of Sections 6.4 and 6.5 of the Plan. If the Employee retires from
employment by the Company, the Committee may, on a case-by-case basis and in
its sole discretion, provide for partial or complete vesting prior to
retirement of that portion of his or her Award that has not previously vested.
9. ADJUSTMENTS UPON SPECIFIED EVENTS. Upon the occurrence of certain
events relating to the Corporation's stock contemplated by Section 6.2 of the
Plan, the Committee shall make adjustments if appropriate in the number and
kind of securities that may become vested under an Award. If any adjustment
shall be made under Section 6.2 of the Plan or a Change in Control Event
shall occur and the shares of Restricted Stock are not fully vested upon such
Event or prior thereto, the restrictions applicable to such shares of
Restricted Stock shall continue in effect with respect to any consideration
or other securities (the "RESTRICTED PROPERTY" and, for the purposes of this
Agreement, "Restricted Stock" shall include "Restricted Property", unless the
content otherwise requires) received in respect of such Restricted Stock.
Such Restricted Property shall vest at such times and in such proportion as
the shares of Restricted Stock to which the Restricted Property is
attributable vest, or would have vested pursuant to the terms hereof if such
shares of Restricted Stock had remained outstanding. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, to the extent that the Restricted Property includes any cash, the
commitment hereunder shall become an unsecured promise to pay an amount equal
to such cash (with earnings attributable thereto as if such amount had been
invested, pursuant to policies established by the Committee, in interest
bearing, FDIC-insured (subject to applicable insurance limits) deposits of a
depository institution selected by the Committee) at such times and in such
proportions as the Restricted Stock would have vested.
10. POSSIBLE EARLY TERMINATION OF AWARD. As permitted by Section 6.2(b)
of the Plan, the Committee retains the right to terminate the Award to the
extent not vested upon an event or transaction which the Corporation does not
survive. This Section 10 is not intended to prevent vesting of the Award as
a result of termination without Cause following a Change in Control Event as
provided in Section 7(c) hereof.
4
<PAGE>
11. LIMITATIONS ON ACCELERATION AND REDUCTION IN BENEFITS IN EVENT OF
TAX LIMITATIONS.
(a) LIMITATION ON ACCELERATION. Notwithstanding anything contained
herein or in the Plan or any other agreement to the contrary, in no event
shall the vesting of any share of Restricted Stock be accelerated pursuant to
Section 6.3 of the Plan or Section 7(c) hereof to the extent that the Company
would be denied a federal income tax deduction for such vesting because of
Section 280G of the Code and, in such circumstances, the restricted shares
not subject to acceleration will continue to vest in accordance with and
subject to the other provisions hereof.
(b) REDUCTION IN BENEFITS. If the Employee would be entitled to
benefits, payments or coverage hereunder and under any other plan, program or
agreement which would constitute "parachute payments," then notwithstanding
any other provision hereof or of any other existing agreement to the
contrary, the Employee Participant may by written notice to the Secretary of
the Corporation designate the order in which such "parachute payments" shall
be reduced or modified so that the Company is not denied federal income tax
deductions for any "parachute payments" because of Section 280G of the Code.
(c) DETERMINATION OF LIMITATIONS. The term "parachute payments" shall
have the meaning set forth in and be determined in accordance with Section
280G of the Code and regulations issued thereunder. All determinations
required by this Section 11, including without limitation the determination
of whether any benefit, payment or coverage would constitute a parachute
payment, the calculation of the value of any parachute payment and the
determination of the extent to which any parachute payment would be
nondeductible for federal income tax purposes because of Section 280G of the
Code, shall be made by an independent accounting firm (other than the
Corporation's outside auditing firm) having nationally recognized expertise
in such matters selected by the Committee. Any such determination by such
accounting firm shall be binding on the Corporation, its Subsidiaries and the
Employee.
12. TAX WITHHOLDING. The entity within the Company last employing the
Employee shall be entitled to require a cash payment by or on behalf of the
Employee and/or to deduct from other compensation payable to the Employee any
sums required by federal, state or local tax law to be withheld with respect
to the vesting of any Restricted Stock, but, in the alternative the Employee
or other person in whom the Restricted Stock vests may irrevocably elect, in
such manner and at such time or times prior to any applicable tax date as may
be permitted or required under Section 6.5 of the Plan and rules established
by the Committee, to have the entity last employing the Employee withhold and
reacquire shares of Restricted Stock at their Fair Market Value at the time
of vesting to satisfy any withholding obligations of the Company with respect
to such vesting. Any election to have shares so held back and reacquired
shall be subject to such rules and procedures, which may include prior
approval of the Committee, as the Committee may impose, and shall not be
available if the Employee makes or has made an election pursuant to Section
83(b) of the Code with respect to such Award.
13. NOTICES. Any notice to be given under the terms of this Agreement
shall be in writing and addressed to the Corporation at its principal office
located at 401 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 700, Santa Monica, California 90401,
to the attention of the Corporate
5
<PAGE>
Secretary and to the Employee at the address given beneath the Employee's
signature hereto, or at such other address as either party may hereafter
designate in writing to the other.
14. PLAN. The Award and all rights of the Employee with respect thereto
are subject to, and the Employee agrees to be bound by, all of the terms and
conditions of the provisions of the Plan, incorporated herein by reference,
to the extent such provisions are applicable to Awards granted to Eligible
Employees. The Employee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan, which is
made a part hereof by this reference, and agrees to be bound by the terms
thereof. Unless otherwise expressly provided in other Sections of this
Agreement, provisions of the Plan that confer discretionary authority on the
Committee do not (and shall not be deemed to) create any rights in the
Employee unless such rights are expressly set forth herein or are otherwise
in the sole discretion of the Committee so conferred by appropriate action of
the Committee under the Plan after the date hereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement as of the
date first above written. By the Employee's execution of this Agreement, the
Employee agrees to the terms and conditions hereof and of the Plan.

Section 2. DEMAND REGISTRATION.
(a) Upon receipt of a written request (a "REGISTRATION REQUEST")
delivered not earlier than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of this
Agreement from Holders holding at least 50% of the aggregate of the number of
Registrable Shares then outstanding, the Company shall (i) promptly give notice
of the Registration Request to all non-requesting Holders and (ii) prepare and
file with the Commission, within 45 days after its receipt of such Registration
Request a registration statement for the purpose of effecting a Registration of
the sale of all Registrable Shares by the requesting Holders and any other
Holder who requests to have his Registrable Shares included in such registration
statement within 10 days after receipt of notice by such Holder of the
Registration Request. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to
effect such Registration as soon as practicable but not later than 120 days
after its receipt of such Registration Request (including, without limitation,
the execution of an undertaking to file post-effective amendments and
appropriate qualification under applicable state securities and real estate
syndication laws); and shall keep such Registration continuously effective until

<PAGE>
registered pursuant to such Registration have been sold pursuant to such
registration statement or Rule 144, and (iii) the date on which, in the opinion
of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Holders, all of the
Registrable Shares registered pursuant to such Registration may be sold in
accordance with Rule 144(k); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company shall not be
obligated to take any action to effect any such Registration, qualification or
compliance pursuant to this Section 2 in any particular jurisdiction in which
the Company would be required to execute a general consent to service of process
in effecting such Registration, qualification or compliance unless the Company
is already subject to service in such jurisdiction.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall have the right (the
"SUSPENSION RIGHT") to defer such filing (or suspend sales under any filed
registration statement or defer the updating of any filed registration statement
and suspend sales thereunder) for a period of not more than 105 days during any
one-year period ending on December 31, if the Company shall furnish to the
Holders a certificate signed by an executive officer or any director of the
Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Company, it would be
detrimental to the Company and its shareholders to file such registration
statement or amendment thereto at such time (or continue sales under a filed
registration statement) and therefore the Company has elected to defer the
filing of such registration statement (or suspend sales under a filed
registration statement).
(b) The Company shall not be required to effect more than two (2)
Registrations pursuant to this Section 2.
Section 3. PIGGYBACK REGISTRATIONS.
(a) On and after the Conversion Date (as defined in the Series B
Preferred Articles Supplementary), so long as the Investor and its Affiliates
hold at least 50% of the Registrable Shares, if the Company proposes to register
under the Securities Act any of its common equity securities with an expected
aggregate offering price to the public of at least $100 million (other than
pursuant to (i) a registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 415 under the
Securities Act, (ii) a registration on Form S-4 or any successor form, or
(iii) an offering of securities in connection with an employee benefit, share
dividend, share ownership or dividend reinvestment plan) and the registration
form to be used may be used for the registration of Registrable Shares, the
Company will give prompt written notice to all Holders of Registrable Shares of
its intention to effect such a registration (each a "PIGGYBACK NOTICE") and,
subject to subparagraph 3(c) below, the Company will include in such
registration all Registrable Shares with respect to which the Company has
received written requests for inclusion therein within ten days after the date
of sending the Piggyback Notice (a "PIGGYBACK REGISTRATION"), unless, if the
Piggyback Registration is not an underwritten offering, the Company in its
reasonable judgement determines that, or in the case of an underwritten
Piggyback Registration, the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing
that in their opinion, the inclusion of Registrable Shares would adversely
interfere with such offering, affect the Company's securities in the public
markets, or otherwise adversely affect the Company. Nothing herein shall affect
the right of the Company to withdraw any such registration in its sole
discretion.
(b) If a Piggyback Registration is a primary registration on behalf
of the Company and, if the Piggyback Registration is not an underwritten
offering, the Company in its
4
<PAGE>
reasonable judgement determines that, or in the case of an underwritten
Piggyback Registration, the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing
that in their opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such
registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner within a
price range acceptable to the Company, the Company will include in such
registration (i) first, the securities the Company proposes to sell and
(ii) second, the Registrable Shares requested to be included in such
Registration and any other securities requested to be included in such
registration, pro rata among the holders of Registrable Shares requesting such
registration and the holders of such other securities on the basis of the number
of Shares requested for inclusion in such registration by each such holder.
(c) If a Piggyback Registration is a secondary registration on behalf
of holders of the Company's securities other than the holders of Registrable
Shares, and, if the Piggyback Registration is not an underwritten offering, the
Company determines that, or in the case of an underwritten Piggyback
Registration, the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in
their opinion, the number of securities requested to be included in such
registration exceeds the number which can be sold in an orderly manner in such
offering within a price range acceptable to the holders initially requesting
such registration, the Company will include in such registration the securities
requested to be included therein by the holders requesting such registration and
the Registrable Shares requested to be included in such registration, pro rata
among the holders of securities requesting such registration on the basis of the
number of Shares initially requested for inclusion in such registration by each
such holder, subject to any preferential registration rights granted prior to
the date of this Agreement.
(d) In the case of an underwritten Piggyback Registration, the
Company will have the right to select the investment banker(s) and manager(s) to
administer the offering. In a registration pursuant to Section 2(a), the
Holders requesting registration shall have the right to select the investment
banker(s) and manager(s) to administer the offering, which shall be reasonably
acceptable to the Company. If requested by the underwriters for any
underwritten offerings by Holders, under a registration requested pursuant to
Section 2(a), the Company will enter into a customary underwriting agreement
with such underwriters for such offering, to contain such representations and
warranties by the Company and such other terms as are customarily contained in
agreements of that type. The Holders who elect to register Registrable Shares
shall be a party to such underwriting agreement and may, at their option,
require that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such
underwriters under such underwriting agreement be conditions precedent to the
obligations of Holders. Such Holders shall not be required to make any
representations or warranties to or agreement with the Company or the
underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding the
Holders and the Holders' intended method of distribution and any other
representation or warranties required by law.
Section 4. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.
(a) The Company shall promptly notify the Holders of the occurrence
of the following events:
5
<PAGE>
(i) when any registration statement relating to the
Registrable Shares or post-effective amendment thereto filed with the Commission
has become effective;
(ii) the issuance by the Commission of any stop order
suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement relating to the
Registrable Shares;
(iii) the suspension of an effective registration statement by
the Company in accordance with the last paragraph of Section 2(a) hereof;
(iv)the Company's receipt of any notification of the suspension of the
qualification of any Registrable Shares covered by a registration statement for
sale in any jurisdiction; and
(v) the existence of any event, fact or circumstance that
results in a registration statement or prospectus relating to Registrable Shares
or any document incorporated therein by reference containing an untrue statement
of material fact or omitting to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading during the
distribution of securities.
The Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the
withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any such registration
statement or any state qualification as promptly as possible. The Investor
agrees by acquisition of the Registrable Shares that upon receipt of any notice
from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the type described in Section
4(a)(ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) to immediately discontinue its disposition of
Registrable Shares pursuant to any registration statement relating to such
securities until the Investor's receipt of written notice from the Company that
such disposition may be made.
(b) The Company shall provide to the Holders, at no cost to the
Holders, a copy of the registration statement and any amendment thereto used to
effect the Registration of the Registrable Shares, each prospectus contained in
such registration statement or post-effective amendment and any amendment or
supplement thereto and such other documents as the requesting Holders may
reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable
Shares covered by such registration statement. The Company consents to the use
of each such prospectus and any supplement thereto by the Holders in connection
with the offering and sale of the Registrable Shares covered by such
registration statement or any amendment thereto. The Company shall also file a
sufficient number of copies of the prospectus and any post-effective amendment
or supplement thereto with the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (or, if the Common
Shares are no longer listed thereon, with such other securities exchange or
market on which the Common Shares are then listed) so as to enable the Holders
to have the benefits of the prospectus delivery provisions of Rule 153 under the

to this Section 4 in any particular jurisdiction in which the Company would be
required to execute a general consent to service of process in effecting such
Registration, qualification or compliance unless the Company is already subject
to service in such jurisdiction..
(d) Subject to the Company's Suspension Right, if any event, fact or
circumstance requiring an amendment to a registration statement relating to the
Registrable Shares or supplement to a prospectus relating to the Registrable
Shares shall exist, immediately upon becoming aware thereof the Company agrees
to notify the Holders and prepare and furnish to the Holders a post-effective
amendment to the registration statement or supplement to the prospectus or any
document incorporated therein by reference or file any other required document
so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the Registrable Shares,
the prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit

the statements therein not misleading.

securities of the same class or series are then listed.

with the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in connection with the offer and
sale of Registrable Shares pursuant to a registration statement, and, as soon as

statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act.

facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing
Registrable Shares to be sold pursuant to a Registration and not bearing any

Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the registration,
qualification or compliance pursuant to Sections 2, 3 and 4 hereof. All Selling

(a) The Company will (i) indemnify each Holder, each Holder's
officers and directors, and each person controlling such Holder within the
meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act, against all expenses, claims,
losses, damages and liabilities (including reasonable legal expenses), arising
out of or based on any untrue statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a
7
<PAGE>
material fact contained in any registration statement or prospectus relating to
the Registrable Shares, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or based on any
omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and
(ii) reimburse each Holder for all reasonable legal or other expenses incurred
in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such
expenses are incurred, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Company will not be liable in
any such case to the extent that any such claim, loss, damage, liability or
expense arises out of or is based on any untrue statement or omission or alleged
untrue statement or omission, made in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder or underwriter
for inclusion therein; and PROVIDED FURTHER, that in the case of a
nonunderwritten offering, the Company shall not be liable in any such case with
respect to any preliminary prospectus or preliminary prospectus supplement to
the extent that any such expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities
result from the fact that Registrable Shares were sold to a person as to whom it
shall be established that there was not sent or given at or prior to the written
confirmation of such sale a copy of the prospectus as then amended or
supplemented under circumstances were such delivery is required under the
Securities Act, if the Company shall have previously furnished copies thereof to
such Indemnified Person in sufficient quantities to enable such Indemnified
Party to satisfy such obligations and the expense, claim, loss, damage or
liability of such Indemnified Person results from an untrue statement or
omission of a material fact contained it the preliminary prospectus or the
preliminary prospectus supplement which was corrected in the prospectus.
(b) Each Holder selling shares pursuant to a Registration (and, in
the case of a nonunderwritten offering, any agents of each Holder that
facilitate the distribution of Registrable Shares) will (i) indemnify the
Company, each of its directors and each of its officers who signs the
registration statement, each underwriter, if any, of the Company's securities
covered by such registration statement, and each person who controls the Company
or such underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act,
against all expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities (including
reasonable legal fees and expenses) arising out of or based on any untrue
statement (or alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any such
registration statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or
based on any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue
statement (or alleged untrue statement) or omission (or alleged omission) is
made in such registration statement or prospectus, in reliance upon and in
conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder
for inclusion therein, and (ii) reimburse the Company for all reasonable legal
or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any
such action or claim as such expenses are incurred.
(c) Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 6 (the
"INDEMNIFIED PARTY") shall give notice to the party required to provide
indemnification (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") promptly after such Indemnified Party
has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought, but the
omission to so notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve it from any
liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 6 except to the extent of the actual damages suffered by such
delay in notification. The Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of such
action, including the employment of counsel to be chosen by the Indemnifying
Party to be reasonably satisfactory to
8
<PAGE>
the Indemnified Party, and payment of expenses. The Indemnified Party shall
have the right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the legal fees
and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party,
unless the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by
the Indemnifying Party in connection with the defense of such action, or the
Indemnifying Party shall not have employed counsel to take charge of the defense
of such action or the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded that
there may be defenses available to it or them which are different from or
additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party (in which case the
Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action
on behalf of the Indemnified Party), in any of which events such fees and
expenses shall be borne by the Indemnifying Party. No Indemnifying Party, in
the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall, except with the consent of
each Indemnified Party, consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any
settlement which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by
the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Party of a release from all
liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 6 is
unavailable to a party that would have been an Indemnified Party under this
Section 6 in respect of any expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities
referred to herein, then each party that would have been an Indemnifying Party
hereunder shall, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, contribute to
the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such
expenses, claims, losses, damages and liabilities in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party on the one
hand and such Indemnified Party on the other in connection with the statement or
omission which resulted in such expenses, claims, losses, damages and
liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The
relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether
the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or
alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
Indemnifying Party or such Indemnified Party and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission. The Company and each Holder agree that it would not be
just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section were determined by
pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take
account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 6(d).
(e) No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the
meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.
(f) In no event shall any Holder be liable for any expenses, claims,
losses, damages or liabilities pursuant to this Section 6 in excess of the net
proceeds to such Holder of any Registrable Shares sold by such Holder.
Section 7. INFORMATION TO BE FURNISHED BY HOLDERS. Each Holder shall
furnish to the Company such information as the Company may reasonably request
and as shall be required in connection with the Registration and related
proceedings referred to in Section 2 or Section 3 hereof. If any Holder fails
to provide the Company with such information within 10 days of receipt of the
Company's request, the Company's obligations under Section 2 or
9
<PAGE>
Section 3 hereof, as applicable, with respect to such Holder or the Registrable
Shares owned by such Holder, shall be suspended until such Holder provides such
information.
Section 8. UNDERTAKING TO PARTICIPATE IN UNDERWRITING. If the
Holders of at least $75 million of the Registrable Shares shall propose to sell
Registrable Shares in an underwritten public offering, the Company shall make
available, for reasonable periods of time and with reasonable notice, members
of the management of the Company and its affiliates for reasonable assistance in
selling efforts relating to such offering, to the extent customary for a public
offering (including, without limitation, to the extent customary, senior
management attendance at due diligence meetings with the underwriters and their
counsel and road shows) and shall enter into underwriting agreements containing
usual and customary terms and conditions reasonably acceptable to the Company
for such types of offerings.
Section 9. RULE 144 SALES.
(a) The Company covenants that it will use its best efforts to file
the reports required to be filed by the Company under the Exchange Act, so as to
enable any Holder to sell Registrable Shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the
Securities Act.
(b) In connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition by any
Holder of any Registrable Shares pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act,
the Company shall cooperate with such Holder to facilitate the timely
preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable Shares to be
sold and not bearing any Securities Act legend, and enable certificates for such
Registrable Shares to be for such number of shares and registered in such names
as the selling Holder may reasonably request at least two business days prior to
any sale of Registrable Shares.
Section 10. TRANSFER OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights and
obligations of a Holder under this Agreement may be transferred or otherwise
assigned to a transferee or assignee of Registrable Shares provided that
(i) such transferee or assignee becomes a party to this Agreement or agrees in
writing to be subject to the terms hereof to the same extent as if such
transferee or assignee were an original party hereunder and (ii) the Company is
given written notice by such Holder of such transfer or assignment stating the
name and address of such transferee or assignee and identifying the securities
with regard to which such rights and obligations are being transferred or
assigned.
Section 11. MISCELLANEOUS.
(a) GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects
by the laws of the State of Maryland.
(b) ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes the full and entire
understanding and agreement between the parties with regard to the subject
matter hereof.
(c) AMENDMENT. No supplement, modification, waiver or termination of
this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by the Company and
the Holders of at least two-thirds of the Registrable Shares.

(d) NOTICES, ETC. Each notice, demand, request, request for
approval, consent, approval, disapproval, designation or other communication
(each of the foregoing being referred to herein as a notice) required or desired

otherwise provided in this Agreement), and shall be effective and deemed to have

a Holder in connection with a registration may instead be given to the
designated representative of such Holder.
(e) COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any number of
counterparts, each of which may be executed by fewer than all of the parties
hereto (PROVIDED that each party executes one or more counterparts), each of
which shall be enforceable against the parties actually executing such
counterparts, and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.
(f) SEVERABILITY. In the event that any provision of this Agreement
becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal,
unenforceable or void, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect

shares of Common Stock or other securities issued by it having terms
substantially similar to Eligible Securities ("Other Securities") for public
sale under the Securities Act (whether proposed to be offered for sale by the

registration of Eligible Securities for sale to the public under the Securities
Act, it will give prompt written notice to each Investor of its intention to do

Eligible Securities so to be registered provided that:

registration of such Other Securities (but not from its obligation to
pay Registration Expenses to the extent incurred in connection
therewith as provided in Section 3.2);
(b) The Company will not be required to effect any registration
pursuant to this Article 3 if the Company shall have been advised in
writing (with a copy to Investor) by a nationally recognized
independent investment banking firm selected by the Company to act as
lead underwriter in connection with the public offering of securities
by the Company, that in such firm's opinion, a registration of the
Eligible Securities which the Company has been requested to register

redemption of all or any portion of its OP Units, without the prior written
consent of the Company.
ARTICLE IV

effective a registration statement under the Securities Act regarding
the Eligible Securities to be offered;
(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to
such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection
therewith as may be necessary to keep such registration statement
effective and to comply with the
4
<PAGE>
provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of
all Eligible Securities until the earlier of such time as all of such
Eligible Securities have been disposed of in accordance with the
intended methods of disposition by the Selling Investors set forth in
such registration statement or the expiration of twelve (12) months
after such registration statement becomes effective;
(c) furnish to each Selling Investor and to any underwriter of such
Eligible Securities such number of conformed copies of such
registration statement and of each such amendment and supplement
thereto (in each case including all exhibits), such number of copies
of the prospectus included in such registration statement (including
each preliminary prospectus and any summary prospectus), in conformity
with the requirements of the Securities Act, such documents
incorporated by reference in such registration statement or
prospectus, and such other documents as such Selling Investor or such
underwriter may reasonably request;
(d) use all reasonable efforts to register or qualify all Eligible
Securities covered by such registration statement under such other
securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Selling
Investors or any underwriter of such Eligible Securities shall
reasonably request, and do any and all other acts and things which may
be reasonably requested by the Selling Investors or any underwriter to
consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Eligible
Securities covered by such registration statement, except the Company
shall not for any such purpose be required to qualify generally to do
business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction wherein it is
not so qualified, or to subject itself to taxation in any jurisdiction
where it is not then subject to taxation, or to consent to general
service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not then subject to
service of process;
(e) use all reasonable efforts to list the Eligible Securities on
each national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then
listed, if the listing of such securities is then permitted under the
rules of such exchange; and
(f) immediately notify the Selling Investors at any time when a
prospectus relating to a registration pursuant to Article 3 hereof is
required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of
any event as a result of which the prospectus included in such
registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue
statement of material fact or omits to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made,
not misleading, and at the request of any Selling Investor prepare and
furnish to such Investor as many copies of a supplement to or an
amendment of such prospectus as the Selling Investor may request so
that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Eligible
Securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The Company may require the Investors to furnish the Company such information
regarding the Investors and the distribution of such securities as the Company
may from time to time reasonably request in writing and as shall be required by
law or by the SEC in connection with any registration. The Company may also
impose such restrictions and limitations on the distribution of such Eligible
Securities as the Company reasonably believes are necessary or advisable to
comply with applicable law or to effect an orderly distribution, including those
restrictions set forth in Section 4.3 hereof.

Article 3 hereof shall involve, in whole or in part, an underwritten offering,
the Company may require Eligible Securities requested to be registered pursuant
to Article 3 to be included in such underwriting on the same terms and
conditions as shall be applicable to the Other Securities being sold through
underwriters under such registration.
(b) If requested by the underwriters for any underwritten offering of
Eligible Securities pursuant to a registration requested hereunder, the Company
will enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement with
such underwriters for such offering, such agreement to contain such
representations and warranties by the Company and such other terms and
provisions as are customarily contained in underwriting agreement
