                    DEVELOPERS DIVERSIFIED REALTY CORPORATION

              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


1.       NATURE OF BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

         Developers Diversified Realty Corporation, related real estate joint
ventures and its minority equity investment (collectively the "Company" or
"DDR"), are engaged in the business of acquiring, expanding, owning, developing,
managing and operating neighborhood and community shopping centers, enclosed
malls and business centers.

Reclassifications

         Certain reclassifications have been made to the 1999 financial
statements to conform to the 2000 presentation.

Use of Estimates

         The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

New Accounting Standard

         In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133 - Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities. This statement requires fair value
accounting for all derivatives including recognizing all such instruments on the
balance sheet with an offsetting amount recorded in the income statement or as
part of comprehensive income. The new standard becomes effective for the Company
for the year ending December 31, 2001 (SFAS No. 137 deferred the effective date
from December 31, 2000). The Company does not expect this pronouncement to have
a material impact on the Company's financial position or cash flows.

         In December 1999, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101,
"Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements, " which among other things,
provides guidance on lessors' accounting for contingent rent. The Company plans
to adopt this bulletin, as required, in the fourth quarter of 2000. The Company
does not anticipate this bulletin to have a material impact on the Company's
results of operations or financial position.

         In March 2000, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 44 - Accounting for
Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation. This interpretation
clarifies the application of APB Opinion No. 25 - Accounting for Stock Issued
to Employees for certain issues. This interpretation is effective for the
Company on July 1, 2000. The Company does not anticipate this Interpretation
to have a material impact on the Company's results of operations or financial
position.

Unaudited Interim Financial Statements

         The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
include the accounts of the Company and all majority owned subsidiaries and
investees where the Company has financial
and operating control. Investments in real estate joint ventures and companies
for which the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over but
does not have financial and operating control are accounted for using the equity
method of accounting.

         These financial statements have been prepared by the Company in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements. However, in the opinion of management, the interim
financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of only normal
recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of the
periods presented. The results of the operations for six months ended June 30,
2000 and 1999 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected
for the full year. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the Company's audited financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 1999.

2.       EQUITY INVESTMENTS IN JOINT VENTURES:

the following:

-    A 35% joint venture interest in one operating shopping center;

     Company owns 1% of the voting and 100% of the non-voting common stock. This
     entity owns a 25% joint venture interest in an opportunity fund ("Retail
     Value Fund") which acquired a retail site in Long Beach, CA, which is being
     redeveloped, 6 operating retail shopping centers in Kansas City, Kansas and

         In February 2000, the Company entered into an agreement to sell 60% of
its half interest in the Community Centers Joint Venture to DRA Advisors, Inc.
at a price of approximately $163 million comprised of cash of approximately $66
million and debt assumed of $97 million. In conjunction with this transaction,
the Company recognized a gain of approximately $15.4 million associated with
this sale. The Company's ownership in the joint venture subsequent to this
transaction is effectively 20% with investment funds advised by DRA Advisors,
Inc. owning 80%. The Company will continue to be responsible for the day-to-day
management of the shopping centers owned by the joint venture and receive fees
for such services.

         In February 2000, the Company formed a joint venture with DRA Advisors,
Inc. whereby the Company contributed a wholly owned shopping center property in
Phoenix, Arizona valued at approximately $26.7 million and related mortgage debt
of $18.0 million and, in exchange, received a 50% equity ownership interest in
the joint venture and cash proceeds of approximately $4.3 million. In
conjunction with this transaction, the Company recognized a gain of
approximately $0.5 million associated with the sale of its partial interest. The
Company will continue to manage and operate the shopping center and will receive
fees for such services.

         In addition, the Company transferred its interest in two joint ventures
in the first quarter of 2000 which each own a shopping center under development
to the Retail Value Fund.

and 46.0%, respectively, of AIP's total outstanding commons shares.

assets at the date the Company invested in AIP. Accordingly, the Company's
equity in net income from minority equity investment is adjusted to reflect
amortization of these basis differences.

         In February and August 1999, the Company's Board of Directors
authorized the officers of the Company to implement a common share repurchase
program in response to what the Company believed was a distinct under valuation
of the Company's common shares in the public market. At June 30, 2000 and
December 31, 1999, treasury stock recorded on the Company's consolidated balance
sheet consisted of 6,601,250 and 1,860,300 common shares at a cost of $88.7
million and $25.8 million, respectively.

5.       REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITIES:

         In June, 2000, the Company renegotiated, expanded and extended its
primary unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of financial
institutions, for which Bank One, NA serves as the administrative agent (the
"Unsecured Credit Facility"). The amended facility increased the available
borrowing capacity to $550 million from $375 million, adjusted the spread over
LIBOR to 1.10%, modified certain covenants and extended the term for an
additional two years to May 31, 2003. The Unsecured Credit Facility includes a
competitive bid option for up to 50% of the facility amount. The Company's
borrowings under this facility bear interest at variable rates based on the
prime rate or LIBOR plus a specified spread (currently 1.10%), depending on the
Company's long term senior unsecured debt rating from Standard and Poor's and
Moody's Investors Service. The Unsecured Credit Facility is used to finance the
acquisition and development of properties, to provide working capital and for
general corporate purposes. At June 30, 2000, $277.0 million was outstanding
under this facility with a weighted average interest rate of 7.8%.

         The Company also maintains a secured revolving credit facility with
National City Bank of $25 million. This credit facility is secured by certain
partnership investments. The Company maintains the right to reduce this facility
to $20 million and to convert the borrowings to an unsecured revolving credit
facility. Borrowings under this facility bear interest at variable rates based
on the prime rate or LIBOR plus a specified spread (currently 0.85%) depending
on the Company's long term senior unsecured debt rating from Standard and Poor's
and Moody's Investors Service. At June 30, 2000, $21.5 million was outstanding
under this facility with a weighted average interest rate of 7.5%.

6.       RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

         In conjunction with the establishment of DDR's equity investment in
certain entities, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer owns voting
stock in these entities in order to comply with certain REIT qualification
requirements.

7.       EARNINGS AND DIVIDENDS PER SHARE

         Earnings Per Share (EPS) have been computed pursuant to the provisions
of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128.

         The following table provides a reconciliation of both income before
extraordinary item and the number of common shares used in the computations of
"basic" EPS, which utilizes the weighted

average number of common shares outstanding without regard to dilutive potential
common shares, and "diluted" EPS, which includes all such shares.

The weighted average contingently issuable OP units which were exchangeable, in
certain circumstances, into common shares aggregated 2.0 million for the six
month period ended June 30, 1999. In July 2000, the Company settled these
contingently issuable OP Units for cash.

The conversions of the Company joint venture partners' interest in several joint
ventures were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because the effect
was antidilutive in 1999. Significant estimates were utilized by the Company in
the determination of fair value for certain of the Company's joint ventures
where the joint venture partner has the right to convert its interest in the
partnership into common shares of the Company or cash, at the election of the
Company. These estimates were used to determine the number of common shares
assumed to be issued by the Company upon conversion, for purposes of determining
dilution, if any. However, in 1999, the Company made the determination that it
will settle these conversions, if any, in cash, and therefore, the calculation
of EPS for the period ended June 30, 2000 excludes these conversions.

8.       SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

         In July 2000, the Company acquired the remaining ownership interest
associated with the 11 Hermes Properties acquired in July, 1998 at an aggregate
cost of approximately $81.9 million. As a result, 3.6 million of operating
partnership units ("OP Units") were redeemed and all restrictions and
obligations were settled.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
         OF OPERATIONS

         The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto. Historical results and
percentage relationships set forth in the consolidated financial statements,
including trends which might appear, should not be taken as indicative of future
operations. The Company considers portions of this information to be
"forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
both as amended, with respect to the Company's expectations for future periods.
Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements related to
acquisitions (including any related pro forma financial information) and other
business development activities, future capital expenditures, financing sources
and availability, the effects of environmental and other regulations. Although
the Company believes that the expectations reflected in those forward-looking
statements are based upon reasonable assumptions, it can give no assurance that
its expectations will be achieved. For this purpose, any statements contained
herein that are not statements of historical fact may be deemed to be
forward-looking statements. Without limiting the foregoing, the words
"believes", "anticipates", "plans", "expects", "seeks", "estimates", and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Readers should
exercise caution in interpreting and relying on forward-looking statements since
they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which are,
in some cases, beyond the Company's control and could materially affect the
Company's actual results, performance or achievements.

         Factors that could cause actual results, performance or achievements to
differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements
include, but are not limited to, the following:

-    The Company is subject to general risks affecting the real estate industry,
     including the need to enter into new leases or renew leases on favorable
     terms to generate rental revenues;

-    The Company is subject to competition for tenants from other owners of
     retail properties and its tenants are subject to competition from other
     retailers and methods of distribution. The Company is dependent upon the
     successful operations and financial condition of its tenants, particularly
     certain of its major tenants, and could be adversely affected by the
     bankruptcy of those tenants;

-    The Company may fail to anticipate the effects on its properties of changes
     in consumer buying practices, including sales over the Internet, and the
     resulting retailing practices and space needs of its tenants;

-    E-commerce may affect the sales volume of the Company's tenants which may
     reduce the amount of percentage rental income;

-    The Company may fail to identify, acquire, construct or develop additional
     properties that produce a desired yield on invested capital or may fail to
     effectively integrate acquisitions of properties or portfolios of
     properties;

-    Debt and equity financing necessary for the Company to continue to grow and
     operate its business may not be available or may not be available on
     favorable terms;



                                      -15-
<PAGE>   16

-    The Company is subject to complex regulations related to its status as a
     real estate investment trust ("REIT") and would be adversely affected if it
     failed to qualify as a REIT;

-    The Company must make distributions to shareholders to continue to qualify
     as a REIT, and if the Company borrows funds to make distributions then
     those borrowings may not be available on favorable terms;

-    The Company could be adversely affected by changes in the local markets
     where its properties are located, as well as by adverse changes in national
     economic and market conditions;

-    The Company is subject to potential environmental liabilities;

-    The Company could be adversely affected by changes in government
     regulations, including changes in environmental, zoning, tax and other
     regulations and

-    Changes in interest rates could adversely affect the market price for the
     Company's common shares, as well as its performance and cash flow.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         Revenues from Operations

         Total revenues increased $7.4 million, or 11.5%, to $71.7 million for
the three month period ended June 30, 2000 from $64.3 million for the same
period in 1999. Total revenues increased $11.0 million, or 8.5% to $140.5
million for the six month period ended June 30, 2000 from $129.5 million for the
same period in 1999.

         Base and percentage rents for the three month period ended June 30,
2000 increased $3.9 million, or 8.1%, to $51.3 million as compared to $47.4
million for the same period in 1999. Base and percentage rents increased $6.8
million, or 7.1%, to $102.2 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2000
from $95.4 million for the same period in 1999. Increase in aggregate base,
percentage and overage revenues relating to new leasing, re-tenanting and
expansion of the Core Portfolio Properties (shopping center properties owned as
of January 1, 1999) increased approximately $3.1 million, or 3.8% for the six
month period ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999.
Including the impact of bankruptcies discussed below, actual base and percentage
revenues increased approximately $1.4 million, or 1.5%, for the six month period
ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999. The two shopping
centers acquired by the Company in 2000 and 1999 contributed $0.9 million of
additional base and percentage rental revenue and the eight new shopping center
developments contributed $5.0 million. These increases were offset by a $0.5
million decrease from the sale of three properties in 1999 and 2000.

         At June 30, 2000, the in-place occupancy rate of the Company's
portfolio stood at 94.8% as compared to 96.3% at June 30, 1999 and 95.6% at
December 31, 1999. The decrease in occupancy rate is primarily attributable to
bankruptcies associated with Home Quarters, Service Merchandise and Just For
Feet. A substantial portion of the space associated with the bankrupt tenants
has been released with revenues commencing in the second half of 2000.

         The average annualized base rent per leased square foot, including
those properties owned through joint ventures, was $9.20 at June 30, 2000 as
compared to $9.06 at June 30, 1999. Same store



                                      -16-
<PAGE>   17

sales, for those tenants required to report such information, representing
approximately 19.2 million square feet, increased 3.8% to $241 per square foot
for the twelve month period.

         The increase in recoveries from tenants of $4.5 million for the six
months ended June 30, 2000 is primarily related to the increase in operating and
maintenance expenses and real estate taxes associated with the 2000 and 1999
shopping center acquisitions and developments. Recoveries were approximately
92.8% and 94.5% of operating expenses and real estate taxes for the six month
period ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

         Management fee income increased by approximately $0.5 million for the
six month period ended June 30, 2000 compared to the same period in 1999,
primarily associated with the formation of new joint ventures in 1999 and 2000.
Interest income decreased $1.9 million, for the six month period ended June 30,
2000 compared to the same period in 1999, primarily associated with advances
made to certain joint ventures and notes receivable outstanding in 1999.

         Other income increased by approximately $1.2 million which generally
reflects an increase in lease termination and bankruptcy settlements revenues of
approximately $3.4 million offset by a decrease in development fees of
approximately $1.4 million and other income consisting of commissions and
financing fees aggregating approximately $0.8 million primarily from the
Company's joint ventures, relating to the ownership interest held by third party
investors.

         Other income was comprised of the following (in thousands):

         General and administrative expenses increased $0.5 million, or 11.4%,
to $5.1 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2000 as compared to
$4.6 million in 1999. General and administrative expenses increased $1.0
million, or 10.4%, to $10.2 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2000
from $9.2 million for the same period in 1999. Total general and administrative
expenses were approximately 4.4% of total revenues, including total revenues of
joint ventures, for the six month periods ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 (4.0% in
1999 after excluding a severance charge).

         The increase in general and administrative expenses is attributable to
the growth of the Company primarily related to recent acquisitions, expansions
and developments, relocation of the Company Headquarters to a new office in 1999
and several new key executives. The Company continues to maintain a conservative
policy with regard to the expensing of all internal leasing salaries, legal
salaries and related expenses associated with the leasing and re-leasing of
existing space.

         Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.3 million, or 10.4%,
to $13.6 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2000 as compared to
$12.3 million for the same period in 1999. Depreciation and amortization
increased $2.4 million, or 9.8%, to $26.9 million for the six month period ended
June 30, 2000 from $24.5 million for the same period in 1999. An increase of
$1.4 million is related to the ten shopping centers acquired and developed in
2000 and 1999, $0.8 million is related to Core Portfolio Properties and $0.2
million is related to personal property primarily associated with the relocation
of the Company's headquarters.

         Interest expense increased $2.6 million, or 16.1%, to $18.7 million for
the three month period ended June 30, 2000, as compared to $16.1 million for the
same period in 1999. Interest expense increased $3.4 million, or 10.3%, to $36.8
million for the six month period ended June 30, 2000 from $33.4 million for the
same period in 1999. The overall increase in interest expense for the six month
period ended June 30, 2000 as compared to the same period in 1999 is primarily
related to the acquisition and development of shopping centers during 2000 and
1999 and an increase in short term interest rates. The weighted average debt
outstanding during the six month period ended June 30, 2000 and related weighted
average interest rate was $1.1 billion and 7.6%, respectively, compared to $1.1
billion and 7.1%, respectively, for the same period in 1999. Interest costs
capitalized, in conjunction with development, expansion projects and development
joint venture interests were, $3.6 million and $6.7 million for the three and
six month periods ended June 30, 2000, as compared to $4.0 million and $6.7
million for the same periods in 1999.

         Equity in net income of joint ventures decreased $0.5 million, or
11.4%, to $3.4 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2000 as
compared to $3.9 million for the same period in 1999. Equity in net income of
joint ventures increased $0.4 million, or 4.8%, to $8.8 million for the six
month period ended June 30, 2000 as compared to $8.4 million for the same period
in 1999. An increase of $0.7 million is related to the joint ventures formed in
1999 and 2000 and an additional $0.7 million related to various other joint
ventures formed prior to 1999. These additions were offset by a decrease of $1.0
million relating to the Company's sale of 60% of its half interest in the
Community Centers Joint Venture.

         Equity in net income of minority equity investment decreased $0.6
million, to $1.3 million, or 33.2%, for the three month period ended June 30,
2000, as compared to $1.9 million for the same period in 1999. Equity in net
income of minority equity investment decreased $0.1 million, after reflecting
the impact of basis differentials which resulted in adjustments to depreciation
and amortization and gain (loss) on sale of assets, or 4.2%, to $2.9 million for
the six month period ended June 30, 2000 from $3.0 million for the

                                      -18-
<PAGE>   19
same period in 1999. As of June 30, 2000, the Company owned approximately 9.7
million shares of AIP which approximates 46.0% of AIP's outstanding common
shares.

         The minority equity interest expense increased $2.7 million, to $5.1
million for the three month period ended June 30, 2000, as compared to $2.4
million for the same period in 1999. The minority equity interest expense
increased $4.4 million, to $9.2 million for the six month period ended June 30,
2000, as compared to $4.8 million for the same period in 1999. An increase of
$4.3 million relates to the Company's issuance of preferred operating
partnership minority units ("Units") in September 1999 and May 2000. These Units
may be exchanged, under certain circumstances, into preferred shares of the
Company. The remaining increase of $0.1 million relates to a minority equity
interest associated to with the ownership of a phase of a operating shopping
center in Maryland.

         Gain on disposition of real estate and real estate investments
aggregated $17.1 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2000. In
February 2000, The Company sold a property in Stone Mountain, Georgia and
recorded a gain of approximately $1.0 million. The Company also sold 60% of its
half interest in a joint venture which owns 10 operating shopping centers and
recognized a gain of approximately $15.4 million. In connection with the
formation of one joint venture, the Company sold one property, received cash and
a 50% partnership interest and recognized a gain of approximately $0.5 million.
In addition, the Company sold residual land at a shopping center and recognized
a gain of $0.2 million.

         The loss on disposition of real estate aggregating $1.8 million in 1999
relates to the sale of a portion of a shopping center and residual land in
Pensacola, Florida. The shopping center was sold to a major retailer for
approximately $4.7 million. In connection with this disposition, the Company
developed a 17,000 square foot shopping center adjacent to the site sold.

         Net Income

         Net income decreased $2.4 million, or 11.5%, to $18.7 million for the
three month period ended June 30, 2000, as compared to net income of $21.1
million for the same period in 1999. Net income increased $13.7 million or
31.8%, to $56.7 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2000 as compared
to $43.0 million for the same period in 1999. The increase in net income of
$13.7 million is primarily attributable to the increase in gain on sale of real
estate and real estate investments of $18.8 million, increases in net operating
revenues (total revenues less operating and maintenance, real estate taxes and
general and administrative expense) aggregating $4.8 million, resulting from new
leasing, retenanting and expansion of Core Portfolio Properties and the ten
shopping centers acquired and developed in 2000 and 1999 and an increase of $0.3
million relating to equity in net income from joint ventures and minority equity
investment. This aggregate increase was offset by increases in depreciation,
interest and minority interest expense of $2.4 million, $3.4 million and $4.4
million, respectively.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS

         Management believes that funds from operations ("FFO") provides an
additional indicator of the financial performance of a Real Estate Investment
Trust. FFO is defined generally as net income applicable to common shareholders
excluding gains (losses) on sale of property, extraordinary items, adjusted for
certain non-cash items, principally real property depreciation and equity income
(loss) from its joint ventures and adding the Company's proportionate share of
FFO of its unconsolidated joint



                                      -19-
<PAGE>   20

ventures, determined on a consistent basis. The Company calculates FFO in
accordance with the foregoing definition, which is substantially the same as the
definition currently used by the National Association of Real Estate Investment
Trusts ("NAREIT"). Certain other real estate companies may calculate FFO in a
different manner. For the three month period ended June 30, 2000, FFO decreased
$2.2 million, to $32.4 million as compared to $34.6 million for the same period
in 1999. For the six month period ended June 30, 2000, FFO decreased $1.3
million, to $66.6 million as compared to $67.9 million for the same period in
1999 as adjusted to comply with NAREIT's revised definition of FFO effective
January 1, 2000. The decrease in total FFO is principally attributable to the
sale of real estate assets and joint venture interests in February, 2000, valued
at approximately $180 million. Proceeds were used to repay indebtedness and
repurchase common shares. The decrease is offset by increases in revenues from
Core Portfolio Properties, acquisitions and developments. The Company's
calculation of FFO is as follows (in thousands):

(b)  At June 30, 2000, the Company owned joint venture interests relating to 41
     operating shopping center properties, a 25% interest in the Prudential
     Retail Value Fund and a 50% joint venture in a real estate management
     company. At June 30, 1999, the Company owned joint venture interests in 27
     operating shopping center properties, a 25% interest in the Prudential
     Retail Value Fund and a 50% joint venture in a real estate management
     company.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

         The Company anticipates that cash flow from operating activities will
continue to provide adequate capital for all principal payments, recurring
tenant improvements, as well as dividend payments in accordance with REIT
requirements and that cash on hand, borrowings available under its existing
revolving credit facilities, as well as other debt and equity alternatives,
including the issuance of OP Units and joint venture capital, will provide the
necessary capital to achieve continued growth. Cash flow from operating
activities for the six month period ended June 30, 2000 was $69.6 million as
compared to $67.0 million for the same period in 1999. The decrease is primarily
attributable to the sale of real estate assets and joint venture interests in
February, 2000 and an increase interest and other financial costs relating to
rate increases and common share repurchases. The decrease was partially offset
by shopping center acquisitions and developments completed in 2000 and 1999, new
leasing, expansion and re-tenanting of the core portfolio properties.

         An increase in the 2000 quarterly dividend per common share to $0.36
from $0.35 was approved in March 2000 by the Company's Board of Directors. The
Company's common share dividend payout ratio for the first quarter of 2000
approximated 61.0% of the actual FFO as compared to 62.4% for the same period in
1999. It is anticipated that the current dividend level will result in a more
conservative payout ratio as compared to prior years. A lower payout ratio will
enable the Company to retain more capital which will be utilized for attractive
investment opportunities in the development, acquisition and expansion of
portfolio properties.

         During the six month period ended June 30, 2000, the Company and its
joint ventures invested $88.5 million, net, to acquire, develop, expand, improve
and re-tenant its properties. The Company's expansion acquisition and
development activity is summarized below:

Expansions:

         Through the first six months of 2000, the Company completed two
expansion projects at an aggregate cost of $2.9 million.

         In addition, the Company and it's joint ventures are currently
expanding/redeveloping eight of its shopping centers at an aggregate projected
cost of $15.5 million. These expansion projects include:

-    A 75,000 square foot Old Navy and Best Buy expansion/redevelopment at the
     Spring Creek Centre in Fayetteville, Arkansas;

projects have an aggregate projected cost of approximately $312.9 million. All
of these projects have commenced development and are currently scheduled for
completion in 2000 and 2001. The Company is currently financing five of these
projects through the Prudential/DDR Retail Value Fund. These projects are
located in Plainville, CT; Round Rock, TX; Hagerstown, MD; Deer Park, IL and
Long Beach, CA and the Company expects to finance an additional project located
in San Antonio, TX through this Fund. The remaining four projects are located in
Coon Rapids, MN; Salisbury, MD (Phase II); Fenton, MO and St. Louis, MO.

         On May 1, 2000, the Company elected to terminate its entity level
involvement with DDR OliverMcMillan ("DDROM"). The Company and OliverMcMillan
are in the process of restructuring the ownership of the urban entertainment and
retail projects which DDROM was pursuing. Two of the projects, located in San
Diego, CA and Oceanside, CA, are under construction with completion schedule in
2001. One of the projects, located in Reno, NV, has been completed. The
remaining projects are scheduled to commence in 2000 with completion scheduled
in 2001 and 2002.

DISPOSITIONS:

         In July, 2000, the Company sold 12,500 square feet of a 62,000 square
foot shopping center located in Las Vegas, Nevada for approximately $2.3 million
and will recognize a gain in the third quarter of 2000 of approximately $1.0
million.

         In February, 2000, the Company entered into an agreement to sell 60% of
its half interest in the Community Centers Joint Venture to DRA Advisors, Inc.
at a price of approximately $163 million comprised of cash of approximately $66
million and debt assumed of $97 million. In conjunction with this transaction,
the Company recognized a gain of approximately $15.4 million associated with
this sale. The Company's ownership in the joint venture, subsequent to this
transaction, is effectively 20% with investment funds advised by DRA Advisors,
Inc. owning 80%. The Company will continue to be responsible for the day-to-day
management of the shopping centers owned by the joint venture and will receive
fees for such services.

         In February, 2000, the Company formed a joint venture with DRA
Advisors, Inc. whereby the Company contributed a wholly owned shopping center
property in Phoenix, Arizona valued at approximately $26.7 million and related
mortgage debt of $18.0 million and, in exchange, received a 50% equity ownership
interest in the joint venture and cash proceeds of approximately $4.3 million.
In conjunction with this transaction, the Company recognized a gain of
approximately $0.5 million associated with this sale. The Company will continue
to manage and operate the shopping center and will receive fees for such
services.

         In February, 2000, the Company sold a shopping center in Stone
Mountain, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta, for approximately $1.8 million and
recognized a gain of approximately $1.0 million.

FINANCING ACTIVITIES:

         In June, 2000, the Company amended its primary Unsecured Credit
Facility with a syndicate of financial institutions for which Bank One, NA
serves as agent. The amended facility increased the availability to $550 million
from $375 million and extended the term for an additional two years to May 31,
2003. The current stated interest rate on the facility is at LIBOR plus 1.10%.
The Company also can competitively bid up to 50% of the facility amount.

         In May, 2000, the Company entered into a $100 million bridge loan
agreement with Bank of America. The proceeds from this facility were used to
repay the $100 million, 7-5/8% Unsecured Senior Notes which matured on May 15,
2000. The bridge loan matures in November, 2000 and bears interest at LIBOR plus
1.10%.

         In May, 2000, the Company issued $105 million, 9.0% perpetual preferred
"down-REIT" operating partnership units to an institutional investor and
received net proceeds of approximately $102.4 million. The units may be
exchanged, under certain circumstances, for Class J, 9.0% cumulative redeemable
perpetual preferred shares.

         In July, 2000, the Company acquired the remaining ownership interest
associated with the 11 Hermes Properties acquired in July, 1998 at an aggregate
cost of approximately $81.9 million. As a result, 3,630,668 operating
partnership units ("OP Units") were redeemed and all restrictions and
obligations were settled.

         From February 29, 2000 through June 30, 2000, the Company purchased, in
open market transactions, 4,741,700 of its common shares, at prices ranging from
$11.61 to $14.88, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $62.9 million
in accordance with the stock repurchase plan approved by the Company's Board of
Directors. Beginning in the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company has acquired
6,602,000 shares at an aggregate cost of $88.7 million. From the fourth quarter
of 1999 through July 31, 2000, total common shares and operating partnership
units repurchased/converted aggregated 10.3 million shares and units of which
8.4 million shares and units have been repurchased/converted in 2000.

         At June 30, 2000, the Company's capitalization consisted of $1.2
billion of debt (excluding the Company's proportionate share of joint venture
mortgage debt aggregating $351.3 million), $518.8 million of preferred shares
and preferred partnership units and $890.0 million of market equity (market
equity is defined as common shares and OP Units outstanding multiplied by the
closing price per common share on the New York Stock Exchange at June 30, 2000
of $14.953), resulting in a debt to total market capitalization ratio of .45 to
1.0. At June 30, 2000, the Company's total debt consisted of $665.2 million of
fixed rate debt and $491.4 million of variable rate debt.

         It is management's intention that the Company have access to the
capital resources necessary to expand and develop its business. Accordingly, the
Company may seek to obtain funds through additional equity offerings or debt
financing or joint venture capital in a manner consistent with its intention to
operate with a conservative debt capitalization policy and maintain its
investment grade ratings with Moody's Investor Services and Standard and Poor's.
As of June 30, 2000, the Company had $750.0 million available under its shelf
registration statement. In addition, as of June 30, 2000, the Company had cash
of $2.9 million and $276.5 million available under its $575 million of revolving
credit facilities. On June 30, 2000, the Company also had 116 operating
properties with $106.6 million, or 71.7%, of the total revenue for the six month
period ended June 30, 2000 which were unencumbered, thereby providing a
potential collateral base for future borrowings.

INFLATION

         Substantially all of the Company's long-term leases contain provisions
designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. Such provisions include
clauses enabling the Company to receive percentage rentals based on tenants'
gross sales, which generally increase as prices rise, and/or escalation clauses,
which generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases. Such
escalation clauses are often related to increases in the consumer price index or
similar inflation indices. In addition, many of the Company's leases provide for
fixed rate rental increases or are for terms of less than ten years, which
permits the Company to seek increased rents upon re-rental at market rates. Most
of the Company's leases require the tenants to pay their share of operating
expenses, including common



                                      -24-

area maintenance, real estate taxes, insurance and utilities, thereby reducing
the Company's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting
from inflation.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS

         Historically, real estate has been subject to a wide range of cyclical
economic conditions which affect various real estate sectors and geographic
regions with differing intensities and at different times. Adverse changes in
general or local economic conditions could result in the inability of some
existing tenants of the Company to meet their lease obligations and could
otherwise adversely affect the Company's ability to attract or retain tenants.
The shopping centers are typically anchored by discount department stores
(Wal-Mart, Kmart or Target), off price department stores (Kohl's, TJ
Maxx/Marshalls), home improvement stores (Home Depot, Lowes) and supermarkets
which generally offer day-to-day necessities rather than high-priced luxury
items. Since these merchants typically perform better in an economic recession
than those who market high priced luxury items, the percentage rents received by
the Company have remained relatively stable. In addition, the Company seeks to
reduce its operating and leasing risks through ownership of a portfolio of
properties with a diverse geographic and tenant base.

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         The Company's primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk. At
June 30, 2000 and 1999, approximately 57.5% and 77.3%, respectively, of the
Company's debt (excluding joint venture debt) bore interest at fixed rates with
a weighted average maturity of approximately 8.3 years and 6.9 years,
respectively, and a weighted average interest rate of approximately 7.5% and
7.6%, respectively. The remainder of the Company's debt bears interest at
variable rates with a weighted average maturity of approximately 1.8 years and a
weighted average interest rate of approximately 7.9% and 6.0%, respectively, at
June 30, 2000 and 1999. As of June 30, 2000 and 1999, the Company's joint
ventures' indebtedness aggregated $720.7 million and $679.2 million,
respectively, of fixed rate debt, of which the Company's proportionate share was
$263.2 million and $348.7 million, respectively, and $226.3 million and $84.9
million, respectively, of variable rate debt, of which the Company's
proportionate share was $86.2 million and $41.6 million, respectively. The
Company intends to utilize variable rate indebtedness available under its
revolving credit facilities and construction loans in order to initially fund
future acquisitions, developments and expansions of shopping centers. Thus, to
the extent that the Company incurs additional variable rate indebtedness, its
exposure to increases in interest rates in an inflationary period would
increase. The Company believes, however, that in no event would increases in
interest expense as a result of inflation significantly impact the Company's
distributable cash flow.

         At June 30, 2000 and 1999, the fair value of the Company's fixed rate
debt amounted to a liability of $625.6 million and $837.6 million (excluding
joint venture debt), respectively, compared to its carrying amount of $665.2
million and $858.8 million, respectively. The fair value of the Company's
proportionate share of joint venture fixed rate debt was $253.6 million and
$352.4 million, respectively, compared to its carrying amount $263.2 million and
$348.7 million, respectively. The Company estimates that a 100 basis point
decrease in market interest rates at June 30, 2000 and 1999 would have changed
the fair value of the Company's fixed rate debt to a liability of $660.2 million
and $876.7 million, respectively, and would have changed the fair value of the
Company's proportionate share of joint ventures fixed rate debt to a liability
of $264.1 million and $356.2 million, respectively. The sensitivity to changes
in interest rate of the Company's fixed rate debt was determined utilizing a
valuation model based upon factors that measure the net present value of such
obligations which arise from the hypothetical estimate as discussed above.




                                      -25-
<PAGE>   26

         The Company intends to continuously monitor and actively manage
interest costs on its variable rate debt portfolio and may enter into swap
positions based on market fluctuations. In addition, the Company believes that
it has the ability to obtain funds through additional equity and/or debt
offerings, including the issuance of medium term notes and joint venture
capital. Accordingly, the cost of obtaining such protection agreements in
relation to the Company's access to capital markets will continue to be
evaluated.
