Footnotes:
(1) Rate can be reduced based upon project performance.
(2) There exists a swap with the following terms: LIBOR fixed at 4.75% on
approximately $217.2 million of debt through April 1997; LIBOR fixed at
5.71% on $87.2 million of debt from May 1997 through April 2001.
These swaps have a maximum protection on LIBOR of 8.44%. To obtain the
swap, the Company "assigned" existing interest rate caps (all expiring in
April 1997) to an unrelated third party. An interest rate cap was also
purchased which limits LIBOR to 8.44% on $87.2 million of debt from
May 1996 through March 2001 in order to provide protection in the
event LIBOR exceeds 8.44%.
(3) On April 14, 1997, the interest rate was reduced to LIBOR plus 75 basis
points.

Teleconference Text
May 7, 1997
David Simon
Today's call will provide an overview of financial and operational results, an
update on project openings, a status update on our very active development
pipeline, and an overview of our financing activities.
First of all, we are pleased with our financial results for the first quarter.
The Company's share of FFO for the quarter was $54 million, an increase of
81.8% over 1996. The increase on a per share basis was 9.8%, to $0.56 per
share from $0.51 in 1996.
Operational statistics are reported on a combined basis for the Simon and
DeBartolo portfolios for both reported periods. Mall occupancy at March 31 was
84.3, up .8% from a year ago. Major factors influencing this occupancy
increase include our continued aggressive leasing efforts, particularly as we
gain more knowledge of the DeBartolo properties, and a relative lack of
bankruptcies during the first quarter of 1997. The amount of square footage
lost to bankruptcies was significantly lower than during the first quarter of
1996.
Our expectations for 1997 include a continued high level of productivity in
leasing. We anticipate benefits in several properties from our significant
redevelopment activities. Leasing activity is on track for 1997 to achieve
budgeted levels if the number of tenant bankruptcies and restructurings remain
modest. At year-end 1997 we anticipate occupancy being above 1996 levels.
From a macro point of view, we believe that the retail outlook is more stable
than it has been the last couple of years.
Our average base rent in the regional malls was $20.84, up 4.5% from $19.95 one
year ago. The initial base rent of new leases signed during the quarter was
$23.69, an increase of $3.35 or 16.5%, over tenants who closed or whose leases
expired. Given the fact that this is the least active quarter of the year and
that we executed three leases on unusually large spaces that negatively skewed
the new leases signed number, we expect this statistic to return to traditional
levels by year-end.
We're very pleased with the sales volume in our regional malls. We were up
3.8%, from $1.377 billion to 1.429 billion in the first quarter. On a per
square foot basis, we experienced a 4% comparable store increase. We continue
to see above-industry sales growth, consistent with our 1996 year-end trend.
We believe that this is a function of our redevelopment efforts and our
aggressive leasing focus on better performing and more productive small shop
tenants. Renovation and expansion projects completed in 1996 are experiencing
double digit sales growth including: Bay Park Square, Bergen Mall, Chautauqua
Mall, Summit Mall and Lafayette Square.
We are generally pleased with the results of the quarter which were in line
with our budget for 1997, and we remain on target to reach 1997 expectations.
I will briefly discuss our project openings, then I'll turn the discussion over
to Rick to review our very active redevelopment program. Indian River Commons,
a 265,000 square foot community center constructed adjacent to our Indian River
Mall, opened during the first quarter. The mall is performing well and the
opening of our community center will enhance this retail complex, located in a
rapidly-growing area. In March we also opened a 24-screen AMC theater and a
Friday's restaurant, both of which opened very well and have increased mall
traffic.
We also opened a United Artist theater and entertainment complex in
Albuquerque, New Mexico at Cottonwood Mall, which is now 94%
leased/committed and performing very well. At Ontario Mills, we continue to
open the entertainment components. Dave and Buster's is now open while
American Wilderness, IWERKS and GameWorks will all open within 60 days. This
project has more than met our expectations.
Now I will turn the discussion over to Rick Sokolov.
Rick Sokolov
I will now provide an update on the new developments we have under
construction. Four new projects are continuing as scheduled. The Source,
which is our 730,000 square foot specialty center scheduled to open on
September 5 in Long Island, features Off 5th- Saks 5th Avenue, Nordstrom Rack
and Cheesecake Factory. Our two Mills projects, Grapevine Mills and Arizona
Mills, will be opening in the fourth quarter in Dallas and Tempe, respectively.
In 1998, we will open The Shops at Sunset Place, a 500,000 square foot
specialty center in South Miami, Florida.
We are considering the development of a value-oriented project in Charlotte,
North Carolina. This is a site where we had previously contemplated the
development of a regional mall, but are now focused on the possibility that it
may be better suited as a value-oriented project. We are also evaluating our
potential role in a Mills project in the Chicago area.
We continue our work on two power centers that are being developed adjacent to
our existing regional malls in Austin, Texas and Muncie, Indiana. We have
started site work at Muncie and are on schedule to begin construction at
Lakeline Plaza in Austin within the next 90 days. These projects are scheduled
for opening in 1998. Predevelopment activities are continuing on our power
center in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, adjacent to North East Mall, the subject
of a major redevelopment project in its own right.
As David said, we continue to be very heartened by the fact that our expansions
and renovations are providing the kind of financial returns and operational
results that show that we are on the right track in devoting capital to our
properties. We have provided a significant amount of detail on our program in
our 1996 10-K and 8-K. At this time, I want to give you an update on
activities that have taken place since our last 8-K and our fourth quarter
press release.
We are now under construction at The Florida Mall, where we are expanding
Dillards, Sears, JCPenney and Gayfers. These expansions will open in 1998. We
are adding a 180,000 square foot Burdines, and approximately 180,000 square
feet of small shops that will be opening in 1998 and the first quarter of 1999.
We have commenced construction on the expansion and renovation of Prien Lake
Mall in Lake Charles, LA. We are adding a Dillard's and Sears, renovating the
mall and JCPenney, and adding small shops and a food court. Scheduled opening
is November of 1998. At Forest Mall in Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin, we are adding
Sears in August of this year.
During the first quarter, we opened Kohl's at St. Charles Towne Center and
JCPenney at Smith Haven Mall. We opened JCPenney in Chautauqua Mall and will
have the renovation and food court open later this year with Bon Ton scheduled
to open in the first quarter of 1998.
The Summit Mall renovation has been completed. An additional element, a 60,000
square foot Dillards Home Store, will open in the third quarter of this year.
The Aventura Mall expansion is proceeding, and we are virtually fully leased in
that expansion space. Bloomingdales will open at Aventura in November.
We announced in April that Dillard Department stores has assumed operations at
five stores previously operated by Mervyns at the following regional malls:
Boynton Beach, Coral Square, Lakeland, Melbourne, and Miami International.
Dillard's has also acquired two Proffitt's stores that closed during the last
quarter in our properties at Virginia Center and Chesapeake Square. The
addition of Dillard's will certainly broaden their appeal and will trigger
additional expansion and redevelopment activity at Boynton Beach, Melbourne,
Miami International and Chesapeake.
We are continuing on the addition of 235,000 square feet of small shop space in
the Forum Shops at Caesars, which will open in late August. We plan to conduct
our second analyst and investor conference in conjunction with the grand
opening on August 27 and 28. We will be sending additional information in the
near future.
David Simon
I think that you can see from our development and redevelopment pipeline that
we continue to be the leading and most active developer and redeveloper of
retail properties in the country. We also continue to be on the forefront of
financing activities. An example of this is the amendment of our existing
credit facility. The two positive results of this restructuring were improved
pricing from LIBOR + 90 to LIBOR + 75 and an increase in the competitive bid
option from $150 to $300 million. Recent pricing on the bid option has been in
the range of LIBOR plus 62 basis points, which I believe is the tightest
pricing in the industry.
During the first quarter, we acquired the participation in cash flow feature on
mortgage loans for four of the portfolio properties. Under each of these
loans, the lender received 50% of the cash flow above a defined base amount.
This participation feature was acquired at a blended cap rate of 11%. In
conjunction with this transaction, the loan for one of the properties was
retired. Under GAAP, an extraordinary charge of $23 million was recorded to
book this transaction.
Within the next thirty days we expect to close on a $180 million, 7-year CMBS
on the Forum Shops, which will replace the current construction financing.
This transaction is expected to be priced at industry-tight levels. In
addition, our $300 million medium term note program should be in place next
week.
On the acquisition and disposition front, we disposed of a small neighborhood
center in Bristol, Tennessee. While not material to the financial statements,
this disposition is consistent with our strategy to sell non-core portfolio
assets.
On the acquisition front we expect, within the next few weeks, to announce $200
million of acquisitions of high quality real estate, to be acquired on an
accretive basis. The industry continues to consolidate. We'll be an active
player.
Finally, on the property management front, we have a long-standing relationship
with CGR (the US property manager and advisor for Rodamco NV). They are also
our joint venture partner in two portfolio properties. Effective on April 1st,
we acquired the management and leasing responsibilities on a fee-basis for:
Countryside Mall in Tampa, FL and Maplewood Square in Minneapolis, MN. Our
philosophy is to pickup third party management where there is a relationship
enhancement opportunity, but not to make it a core business. Our focus is to
improve on our portfolio properties which will increase the cash flow from our
business. In addition, we are only interested in providing third party
management for quality properties.
Things are progressing as expected in terms of the merger. For all intents and
purposes, the integration is completed, and I believe that the organization has
a clear focus going forward.
