INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Stockholders of Westpal, L.L.C.:

We have audited the statement of revenues and certain expenses of Westside
Pavilion (owned by Westpal, L.L.C.) for the year ended December 31, 1997.  This
financial statement is the responsibility of Westside Pavilion's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statement based on
our audit.

We conducted our audit 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 statement is free of material
misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statement.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and the 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.

The accompanying statement of revenues and certain expenses was prepared for the
purpose of complying with the rules and regulations of the Securities and
Exchange Commission (for inclusion in the filing of Form 8-K/A of The Macerich
Company as a result of the acquisition of this property).  Material amounts,
described in Note 1 to the statement of revenues and certain expenses, that
would not be comparable to those resulting from future operations of the
acquired property are excluded, and the statement is not intended to be a
complete presentation of the acquired property's revenues and expenses.

In our opinion, the financial statement referred to above presents fairly, in
all material respects, the revenues and certain expenses of Westside Pavilion
for the year ended December 31, 1997 in conformity with the basis of accounting
described above.

NOTES TO STATEMENTS OF REVENUES AND CERTAIN EXPENSES
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND THE
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.   BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     Westside Pavilion, a regional shopping center located in Los Angeles,
     California, was acquired by The Macerich Company, effective July 1, 1998. 
     The statements of revenues and certain expenses include information related
     to the operations of Westside Pavilion for the period from January 1, 1997
     through December 31, 1997 and January 1, 1998 through June 30, 1998
     (unaudited) as recorded by the previous owner, Westpal, L.L.C.

     The accompanying historical financial statement information is presented in
     conformity with Rule 3-14 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 
     Accordingly, the statements are not representative of the actual operations
     for the year ended December 31, 1997 and the six months ended June 30, 1998
     (unaudited) as certain expenses, which may not be comparable to the
     expenses expected to be incurred in the future operations of the acquired
     property, have been excluded.  Expenses excluded consist of interest,
     management fees, income taxes, and depreciation, and other costs not
     directly related to the future operations of the acquired property.

     MANAGEMENT'S USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of the statements requires
     management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
     amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual
     results could differ from those estimates.

     RENTAL INCOME - Minimum rents are recognized on an accrual basis as earned,
     which approximates the straight-line basis.

     PROPERTY OPERATING EXPENSES - Property operating expenses consist primarily
     of utilities, insurance, repairs and maintenance, security and safety,
     cleaning, and other administrative expenses.

2.   OPERATING LEASES

     Operating revenue is principally obtained from tenant rentals under
     noncancelable operating leases.  Future minimum rentals under noncancelable
     operating leases as of December 31, 1997 are approximately as follows:
