Basis of Presentation:

The unaudited pro forma  consolidated  balance sheet as of September 30, 2000 is
based on the  unaudited  historical  financial  statements  of the Company after
giving effect to the  disposition of the Permanent  Loan  Properties and certain
adjustments as described below.

Balance Sheet Adjustments:

[A]  Represents the  historical  unaudited  consolidated  balance sheet of Prime
     Retail, Inc. (the "Company") as of September 30, 2000.

[B]  On December 22, 2000, the Company closed on the sale of four outlet centers
     (the  "Permanent  Loan  Properties")  to Fortress  Investment  Fund LLC and
     Chelsea GCA Realty, Inc. for aggregate consideration of $239,500, including
     the assumption of mortgage indebtedness of $174,235.  The net cash proceeds
     from the sale,  after (i) closing costs,  (ii) fees and (iii) the Company's
     required  purchase  of land for  $7,227 at its  outlet  center  in  Gilroy,
     California, was approximately $54,000.

[C]  Represents the elimination of the historical unaudited balance sheets as of
     September 30, 2000 of the Permanent Loan Properties as follows:

                  Prime Outlets at Kittery ("Kittery")
                  Prime Outlets at Gilroy ("Gilroy")
                  Prime Outlets at Michigan City ("Michigan City")
                  Prime Outlets at Waterloo ("Waterloo")

[D]  Represents  the net  cash  proceeds  from the  sale of the  Permanent  Loan
     Properties.

[E]  Reflects  use of the net cash  proceeds  to pay  down  mortgage  and  other
     indebtedness of the Company.

[F]  Reflects  the  reversal  of the  elimination  of the  historical  partners'
     capital of the Permanent Loan Properties as of September 30, 2000 (see Note
     [C]).

[G]  In connection with the sale of the Permanent Loan  Properties,  the Company
     expects  to record a net loss on the sale of real  estate of  approximately
     $43,317  in  its  historical  consolidated  results  from  operations.  The
     expected  net loss is  reflected in the  Company's  Pro Forma  Consolidated
     Balance  Sheet as of September 30, 2000 in  distributions  in excess of net
     income.

Basis of Presentation:

     The unaudited pro forma consolidated  statements of operations for the nine
months ended  September 30, 2000 and the year ended  December 31, 1999 are based
on the unaudited financial  statements of the Company after giving effect to the
dispositions  of the  Permanent  Loan  Properties  and  certain  adjustments  as
described below.

Statements of Operations Adjustments:

[A]  Represents,   as  indicated,  the  historical  consolidated  statements  of
     operations of Prime Retail,  Inc. (the "Company") for the nine months ended
     September  30, 2000  and for the year ended  December 31, 1999.

[B]  On August 6, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement (the "Prime/Estein
     Joint Venture  Agreement") to sell three factory outlet centers,  including
     two  future  expansions,  to a joint  venture  (the  "Venture")  between an
     affiliate  of Estein &  Associates  USA,  Ltd.  ("Estein"),  a real  estate
     investment  company,  and  the  Company.  The  Prime/Estein  Joint  Venture
     Agreement  provided for a total purchase  price of $274,000,  including (i)
     the assumption of  approximately  $151,500 of first mortgage  indebtedness,
     (ii)   an   $8,000    payment    to   the    Company    for   a    ten-year
     covenant-not-to-compete (the  "Covenant-not-to-Compete") and (iii) a $6,000
     payment to the Company for a ten-year  licensing  agreement (the "Licensing
     Agreement")  with the  Venture to continue  the use of the "Prime  Outlets"
     brand name.  The  Covenant-not-to-Compete  and the Licensing  Agreement are
     collectively referred to as the "Deferred Income". The Deferred Income will
     be amortized into other income over its ten-year life by the Company.

     On November 19, 1999, the Company completed the initial  installment of the
     Prime/Estein  Joint  Venture  Agreement  consisting  of the  sale of  Prime
     Outlets  at  Birch  Run to  the  Venture  for  aggregate  consideration  of
     $117,000,  including a $64,500 "wrap-around" first mortgage provided by the
     Company.  In  connection  with the sale of Prime  Outlets at Birch Run, the
     Company  received  cash  proceeds of  $33,303,  net of  transaction  costs.
     Effective November 19, 1999, the Company commenced accounting for its 30.0%
     ownership  interest in Prime  Outlets at Birch Run in  accordance  with the
     equity method of  accounting.  Included in the aggregate  consideration  is
     $8,500 of Deferred Income.

Statements of Operations Adjustments (continued):

     On February 23, 2000, the Company  completed the second  installment of the
     Prime/Estein  Joint  Venture  Agreement  consisting  of the  sale of  Prime
     Outlets at  Williamsburg  to the Venture  for  aggregate  consideration  of
     $59,000,  including (i) the assumption of mortgage  indebtedness of $32,500
     and (ii) $2,750 of Deferred  Income.  In connection  with the sale of Prime
     Outlets at Williamsburg, the Company received (i) cash proceeds of $11,063,
     net of  transaction  costs,  and (ii) a  promissory  note in the  amount of
     $10,000  from  the  Venture  (of  which  Estein's  obligation  is  $7,000).
     Effective February 23, 2000, the Company commenced accounting for its 30.0%
     ownership  interest in Prime Outlets at Williamsburg in accordance with the
     equity method of accounting.

     Under the Prime/Estein  Joint Venture  Agreement,  as amended,  the outside
     closing  date for the sale of Prime  Outlets at  Hagerstown,  including  an
     expansion which opened during 2000 (together, the "Hagerstown Center"), was
     August 31, 2000. Estein terminated the Prime/Estein Joint Venture Agreement
     as it applied to the sale of the Hagerstown Center when the closing did not
     occur by the specified closing date.

     In connection with the  discontinuance  of the sales of a 70% joint venture
     interest  in (i) the  Hagerstown  Center and (ii) a proposed  expansion  to
     Prime Outlets at Williamsburg (the "Williamsburg  Expansion"),  the Company
     reduced the  carrying  value of the  Deferred  Income by $9,550  during the
     third quarter of 2000.

     The  following  summarizes  the  components  of the pro  forma  adjustments
     attributable  to the sale of Prime  Outlets at Birch Run (sold on  November
     19,  1999) and Prime  Outlets at  Williamsburg  (sold on February 23, 2000)
     (collectively,  the "Venture  Asset Sale") as if the Venture Asset Sale had
     occurred on January 1 of the period presented.

     (b) Decrease reflects the pro forma interest expense savings resulting from
     the  repayment of certain  long-term  debt with the net proceeds of $44,366
     from the Venture  Asset Sale at a weighted  average  interest rate of 8.86%
     and 7.05% for the nine months ended September 30, 2000 and the year ended
     December 31, 1999, respectively.

     In connection with the Venture Asset Sale,  Prime Retail,  Inc.  recorded a
     net loss on the sale of real  estate of $15,153 in its  historical  audited
     consolidated  results from operations for the year ended December 31, 1999.
     However,  this  net loss is not  reflected  in the Pro  Forma  Consolidated
     Statements  of  Operations   for  the  periods   presented   since  it  was
     nonrecurring.

[C]  On December 22, 2000, the Company closed on the sale of four outlet centers
     (the  "Permanent  Loan  Properties")  to Fortress  Investment  Fund LLC and
     Chelsea GCA Realty, Inc. for aggregate consideration of $239,500, including
     the assumption of mortgage indebtedness of $174,235.  The net cash proceeds
     from the sale,  after (i) closing costs,  (ii) fees and (iii) the Company's
     required  purchase  of land for  $7,227 at its  outlet  center  in  Gilroy,
     California, was approximately $54,000.

[D]  Represents,  as indicated,  the  elimination  of the  historical  unaudited
     statements of operations  for the nine months ended  September 30, 2000 and
     the year ended  December  31,  1999 of the  Permanent  Loan  Properties  as
     follows:

                  Prime Outlets at Kittery ("Kittery")
                  Prime Outlets at Gilroy ("Gilroy")
                  Prime Outlets at Michigan City ("Michigan City")
                  Prime Outlets at Waterloo ("Waterloo")

[E]  Decrease reflects the pro forma interest expense savings resulting from the
     repayment  of  certain  long-term  debt  with  the  net  cash  proceeds  of
     approximately  $54,000  from sale of the  Permanent  Loan  Properties  at a
     weighted  average  interest  rate of 12.13%  and 7.93% for the nine  months
     ended   September   30,  2000  and  the  year  ended   December  31,  1999,
     respectively.
