Holthouse Carlin & Van Trigt LLP is unable to complete, without
incurring unreasonable effort and expense to the Company, the
necessary reports required in connection with the financial
statements of the Plan to be included in the Company's Form 11-K
to be filed for the 1999 Plan year. Holthouse Carlin & Van Trigt
LLP is currently in the process of finalizing the required
information and the Company will file its Form 11-K within

Re: Information Required for Form 11-K
Gentlemen:
It is our understanding the recordkeeper for The Macerich
Property Management Company Profit Sharing Plan (the "Plan") just
recently provided the Plan's recordkeeping reports. As a result,
we will be unable to complete, without incurring unreasonable
effort and expense to The Macerich Company, the necessary reports
required in connection with the financial statements of the Plan
to be included in The Macerich Company's 2000 Form 11-K.
