(the "Merger Agreement").  A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached
hereto as Exhibit 8 and is incorporated by reference herein.

          On August 7, 1996, stockholders of the Company approved the
Merger Agreement and authorized the Merger (as defined below).  On
August 9, 1996, pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Day was
merged with and into DeBartolo and DeBartolo, the surviving corporation
(renamed SD Property Group, Inc.), became 99.99% owned by the Company
(the "Merger").  Each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par
value $.01 per share, of DeBartolo ("DeBartolo Common Stock"), other than
certain shares canceled in accordance with the Merger Agreement, was
converted into the right to receive from the Company sixty-eight one
hundredths (0.68) of a fully-paid and nonassessable share of Common
Stock.  The shares of Common Stock so issued will be newly-issued shares.
The Company will make cash payments in lieu of issuing fractional shares
of Common Stock.  The transaction is intended to be a tax-free
reorganization under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.

          The ownership of securities reported herein results from a
series of transactions undertaken in connection with the formation of the
Company, the public offering of Common Stock and the Merger.

          The Company was formed to acquire the shopping center business
of Melvin Simon and Herbert Simon and certain of their affiliates and
their interests in most of the existing properties contained in their
retail and mixed-use property portfolio, their interests in certain
centers then under construction, their interests in certain land
held for development and a substantial interest in their affiliated
management company.  Each of the reporting persons intends to hold
interests in the Company for investment purposes.

          The holders of the Class B Stock are initially entitled to
elect four of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company.  As a
result of the transactions described in Item 3, MSA now holds all of the
Class B Stock.  Through the Trust Agreement entered into by MSA, Melvin
Simon, Herbert Simon and David Simon, the Simons have the ability to vote
the Class B Stock.

          On March 28, 1996, in connection with the Merger Agreement
described in Item 3, the Company, DeBartolo, the persons listed on
Exhibit 9 attached

    4,000,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock ("Preferred Stock", each 
    carrying 0.9523809 of a vote per share) outstanding. For the purpose of 
    calculating the percentage of voting power of each of the Reporting 
    Persons, because each share of Preferred Stock carries  0.9523809 of a
    vote, the 4,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock outstanding are considered 
    as 3,809,523.6 shares of voting stock. The percentages in this column assume
    that all options exercisable within 60 days and all units of partnership
    interest in Simon-DeBartolo Group, L.P. ("Units") held by such person are 
    exercised or exchanged for shares of Common Stock, but do not give effect
    to the exercise of options or exchange of Units by other persons. In
    connection with the Merger, and pursuant to a Contribution Agreement 
    substantially in the form of Exhibit 15 hereto, the Reporting Persons
    contributed all of their units in Simon Property Group, L.P. in exchange
    for an equal number of Units.

i.  Includes 3,200,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Class

    by a voting trust obligated to elect Melvin Simon, Herbert Simon and David
    Simon as directors of the Company. MSA is entitled to receive all proceeds
    from the sale of and all dividends from the Class B Stock, except all
    dividends paid in Class B Stock shall be subject to the provisions of the
    Trust. Upon the occurence of such events, such shares of Class B Stock will
    convert automatically into shares of Common Stock.

ITEM 6.     CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
     RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

VOTING TRUST AGREEMENT

          Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, MSA has delivered the power to
vote the Class B Stock to the voting trustees (Melvin Simon, Herbert
Simon and David Simon).  All of the Class B Stock has been deposited
with, and is to be held by and in the name of, the voting trustees until
the earliest of (a) December 1, 2003, (b) the death, disability or
resignation as voting trustee of the last of Melvin Simon, Herbert Simon,
David Simon and all successor voting trustees named under the terms of
the Trust Agreement or (c) the agreement of all the voting trustees then
serving.

          The Trust Agreement provides that the voting trustees entitled
to vote may vote the Class B Stock at all events where the vote or
consent of the Class B
 
<PAGE>
                                                                           14

Stock is required, sought or permitted, including
the election of voting trustees; provided that the voting trustees
observe the limitations contained in the Trust Agreement.  MSA, as holder
of the voting trust certificates, will receive distributions with respect
to the Class B Stock, except that distributions made in Class B Stock
will be held under and be subject to the Trust Agreement.

SUBSCRIPTION/CONTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

          The Subscription/Contribution Agreement, dated as of
December 1, 1993, between the Company and MSA provided for 3,200,000
shares of the Class B Stock to be delivered to MSA from the Company in
exchange for $16 million in cash, the $22 Million Note and management
contracts relating to certain properties wholly owned by the Company and
its affiliates.

CLASS B STOCK

          The holders of the Class B Stock are now entitled to elect four
of the thirteen members of the Board of Directors.  At such time as
Melvin Simon, Herbert Simon, certain affiliates and family members or
their trusts and estates sell or transfer to unaffiliated persons at
least 50% of their initial aggregate equity interest in the Company
(i.e., all Common Stock, Class B Stock and Units), through their
ownership of Class B Stock, the Simons (as voting trustees) will be
entitled to elect only two of the thirteen members of the Board of
Directors.  If the aggregate equity interest of Melvin Simon, Herbert
Simon, certain affiliates and family members and their trusts and estates
in the Company drops below 5%, the outstanding shares of Class B stock
convert automatically into an equal number of shares of Common Stock and
the Simons will no longer be entitled to elect directly members of the
Board of Directors.  Shares of Class B Stock also convert automatically
into an equal number of shares of common stock upon the sale or transfer
thereof to a person not affiliated with Melvin Simon, Herbert Simon,
certain affiliates and family members and their trusts and estates.

LOCK-UP AND REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENTS

          In connection with the Company's initial public offering, MSA
agreed to retain ownership of sufficient equity interests to satisfy
certain indemnification obligations of MSA.  In addition, the Amended and
Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of Simon-DeBartolo Group, L.P.
restricts the transfer of Units by the holders thereof, including MSA,
Melvin Simon, Herbert Simon, David Simon and the other executive officers
of MSA who hold Units.

          As of August 9, 1996, MSA, Melvin Simon and Herbert Simon, both
as Voting Trustees and in their individual capacities, are parties to a
new Registration Rights Agreement, substantially in the form of
Exhibit 14 attached hereto and incorporated by reference herein, granting
certain persons certain registration rights as described therein.

          Except as described in this Statement, including any amendments
thereto, none of the persons named in Item 2 is a party to any contracts,
arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) with
respect to any securities of the Company.
