1. Organization

     SPG Properties, Inc. ("SPG Properties"), formerly Simon DeBartolo Group,
Inc. ("SDG"), is a substantially wholly-owned subsidiary of Simon Property
Group, Inc. ("SPG"). SPG Properties and SPG are both self-administered and self-
managed real estate investment trusts ("REITs") under the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended. SPG Properties is a general partner of, and holds a
noncontrolling partnership interest in, Simon Property Group, L.P. (the "SPG
Operating Partnership"), as of March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999. The SPG
Operating Partnership is engaged in the ownership, operation, management,
leasing, acquisition, expansion and development of real estate properties,
primarily regional malls and community shopping centers. SPG is the managing
general partner of the SPG Operating Partnership. Each share of common stock of
SPG is paired with a beneficial interest in 1/100th of a share of common stock
of SPG Realty Consultants, Inc. ("SRC" and together with SPG, the "Companies").

     As of March 31, 2000, the SPG Operating Partnership owned or held an
interest in 256 income-producing properties, which consisted of 166 regional
malls, 77 community shopping centers, four specialty retail centers, five office
and mixed-use properties and four value-oriented super-regional malls in 36
states (the "Properties") and five additional retail real estate properties
operating in Europe. The SPG Operating Partnership also owned an interest in two
properties currently under construction and 11 parcels of land held for future
development, which together with the Properties are hereafter referred to as the
"Portfolio Properties". The SPG Operating Partnership also holds substantially
all of the economic interest in M.S. Management Associates, Inc. At March 31,
2000 and December 31, 1999, SPG Properties' direct and indirect ownership
interest in the SPG Operating Partnership was 47.9% and 48.0%, respectively.

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements are unaudited;
however, they have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information and in conjunction with
the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion
of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring matters)
necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated condensed financial
statements for these interim periods have been included. The results for the
interim period ended March 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the
results to be obtained for the full fiscal year. These unaudited consolidated
condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with SPG
Properties' December 31, 1999 audited financial statements and notes thereto
included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K. The accompanying consolidated
condensed financial statements of SPG Properties include accounts of all
entities owned or controlled by SPG Properties. All significant intercompany
amounts have been eliminated.

     Net operating results of the SPG Operating Partnership are allocated to its
partners based first on their preferred unit preference and then on their
remaining weighted average ownership interest in the SPG Operating Partnership
during the period. SPG Properties' remaining weighted average ownership interest
in the SPG Operating Partnership for the three-month periods ended March 31,
2000 and 1999 was 48.0% and 49.9%, respectively.

Note 3 -  Per Share Data

     Because substantially all of the common stock of SPG Properties is owned by
SPG, SPG Properties does not report earnings per share.

Note 4 - Merger

     Prior to February 29, 2000, SD Property Group, Inc. was a general partner
of the SPG Operating Partnership and a substantially wholly-owned subsidiary of
SPG Properties. On February 29, 2000, SD Property Group, Inc. merged with and
into SPG Properties.

limited partnership, is a majority owned subsidiary of Simon Property Group,
Inc. ("SPG"), a Delaware corporation. SPG is a self-administered and self-
managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") under the Internal Revenue Code of

("Paired Shares") with a beneficial interest in 1/100th of a share of common
stock of SPG Realty Consultants, Inc., also a Delaware corporation ("SRC" and
together with SPG, the "Companies"). Units of ownership interest ("Units") in
the SPG Operating Partnership are paired ("Paired Units") with a Unit in SPG
Realty Consultants, L.P. (the "SRC Operating Partnership" and together with the
SPG Operating Partnership, the "Operating Partnerships"). The SRC Operating
Partnership is the primary subsidiary of SRC.

     The SPG Operating Partnership, is engaged primarily in the ownership,
operation, management, leasing, acquisition, expansion and development of real

Note 2 - Basis of Presentation

     The accompanying financial statements are unaudited; however, they have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all
of the disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles for
complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments
necessary for fair presentation, consisting of only normal recurring
adjustments, have been included. The results for the interim period ended March
31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for the
full fiscal year. These unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with the accounting policies described in the SPG Operating
Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999
and should be read in conjunction therewith.

     The accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements of the SPG
Operating Partnership include all accounts of all entities owned or controlled
by the SPG Operating Partnership. All significant intercompany amounts have been
eliminated.

     Net operating results of the SPG Operating Partnership are allocated after
preferred distributions, based on its partners' weighted average ownership
interests during the period. SPG's weighted average direct and indirect
ownership interest in the SPG Operating Partnership for the three-month periods
ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 was 72.4% and 71.8%, respectively.

Note 3 - Reclassifications

     Certain reclassifications of prior period amounts have been made in the
financial statements to conform to the 2000 presentation. These
reclassifications have no impact on the net operating results previously
reported.

Note 4 -  Per Unit Data

     Basic earnings per Unit is based on the weighted average number of Units
outstanding during the period and diluted earnings per Unit is based on the
weighted average number of Units outstanding combined with the incremental
weighted average Units that would have been outstanding if all dilutive
potential Units would have been converted into Units at the earliest date
possible. The weighted average number of Units used in the computation for the
three-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 was 236,995,130 and
227,879,830, respectively. The diluted weighted average number of Units used in
the computation for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 was
237,040,394 and 228,061,703, respectively. None of the convertible preferred
Units issued and outstanding during the comparative periods had a dilutive
effect on earnings per Unit. The increase in

                                       11
<PAGE>

weighted average Units outstanding under the diluted method over the basic
method in every period presented for the SPG Operating Partnership is due
entirely to the effect of outstanding stock options. Basic earnings and diluted
earnings were the same for all periods presented.

Note 5 - Cash Flow Information

     Cash paid for interest, net of amounts capitalized, during the three months
ended March 31, 2000 was $154,712 as compared to $125,245 for the same period in
1999. Accrued and unpaid distributions were $876 at December 31, 1999. There
were no accrued and unpaid distributions outstanding at March 31, 2000. See Note
9 for information about non-cash transactions during the three months ended
March 31, 2000.

Note 6 - Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change

     On December 3, 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"), which addressed certain revenue
recognition policies, including the accounting for overage rent by a landlord.
SAB 101 requires overage rent to be recognized as revenue only when each
tenant's sales exceeds their sales threshold. The SPG Operating Partnership
previously recognized overage rent based on reported and estimated sales through
the end of the period, less the applicable prorated base sales amount. The SPG
Operating Partnership adopted SAB 101 effective January 1, 2000 and recorded a
loss from the cumulative effect of an accounting change of $12,311, which
includes the SPG Operating Partnership's $1,765 share from unconsolidated
entities, in the first quarter of 2000. In addition, SAB 101 will impact the
timing in which overage rent is recognized throughout each year, but will not
have a material impact on the total overage rent recognized in each full year.
The SPG Operating Partnership estimates the pro forma negative impact of
adopting SAB 101 on combined net income for the three months ended March 31,
2000 to be approximately $5,000. The negative impact on earnings per share was
approximately $0.02.

SPG Operating Partnership's investment over its share of the equity in the
underlying net assets of the partnerships and joint ventures was $570,494 and
$592,457, respectively, which is amortized over the life of the related
Properties. Amortization included in income from unconsolidated entities for the
three-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999 was $5,273 and $6,057,
respectively.

     The SPG Operating Partnership's share of consolidated net income of the

unsecured debt, which became due and bore interest at LIBOR plus 65 basis
points. The new facility matures March 2001 and also bears interest at LIBOR
plus 65 basis points.

          The Simon Property Group 1998 Stock Incentive Plan

     At the time of the CPI Merger, the SPG Operating Partnership and SPG
adopted The Simon Property Group 1998 Stock Incentive Plan (the "1998 Plan").
The 1998 Plan provides for the grant of equity-based awards during the ten-year
period following its adoption in the form of options to purchase Paired Shares
("Options"), stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock grants and
performance unit awards (collectively, "Awards"). Options may be granted which
are qualified as "incentive stock options" within the meaning of Section 422 of
the Code and Options which are not so qualified. During 2000, 457,625 Paired
Shares of restricted stock were awarded to executives related to 1999
performance. As of March 31, 2000, 2,278,586 Paired Shares of restricted stock,
net of forfeitures, were deemed earned and awarded under the 1998 Plan.
Approximately $3,024 and $2,713 relating to these programs were amortized in the
three-month periods ended March 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The cost of
restricted stock grants, which is based upon the stock's fair market value at
the time such stock is earned, awarded and issued, is charged to partners'
equity and subsequently amortized against earnings of the SPG Operating
Partnership over the vesting period.


Note 10 - Commitments and Contingencies

          Litigation

     Triple Five of Minnesota, Inc., a Minnesota corporation, v. Melvin Simon,
et. al. On or about November 9, 1999, Triple Five of Minnesota, Inc. ("Triple
Five") commenced an action in the District Court for the State of Minnesota,
Fourth Judicial District, against, among others, Mall of America, certain
members of the Simon family and entities allegedly controlled by such
individuals, and the SPG Operating Partnership. Two transactions form the basis
of the complaint: (i) the sale by Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of
America of one-half of its partnership interest in Mall of America Company and
Minntertainment Company to the SPG Operating Partnership and related entities
(the "Teachers Sale"); and (ii) a financing transaction involving a loan in the
amount of $312,000 obtained from The Chase Manhattan Bank ("Chase") that is
secured by a mortgage placed on Mall of America's assets (the "Chase Mortgage").

     The complaint, which contains twelve counts, seeks remedies of damages,
rescission, constructive trust, accounting, and specific performance. Although
the complaint names all defendants in several counts, the SPG Operating
Partnership is specifically identified as a defendant in connection with the
Teachers Sale.

     The SPG Operating Partnership has agreed to indemnify Chase and other
nonparties to the litigation that are related to the offering of certificates
secured by the Chase Mortgage against, among other things, (i) any and all
litigation expenses arising as a result of litigation or threatened litigation
brought by Triple Five, or any of its owners or affiliates, against any person
regarding the Chase Mortgage, the Teachers Sale, any securitization of the Chase
Mortgage or any transaction related to the foregoing and (ii) any and all
damages, awards, penalties or expenses payable to or on behalf of Triple Five
(or payable to a third party as a result of such party's obligation to pay
Triple Five) arising out of such litigation. These indemnity obligations do not
extend to liabilities covered by title insurance.

     The SPG Operating Partnership believes that the Triple Five litigation is
without merit and intends to defend the action vigorously. To that end, all
defendants have removed the action to federal court and have served a motion,
which is pending, to dismiss Triple Five's complaint in its entirety on the
grounds that the complaint fails to state a claim. The SPG Operating Partnership
believes that neither the Triple Five litigation nor any potential payments
under the indemnity, if any, will have a material adverse effect on the SPG
Operating Partnership. Given the early stage of the litigation it is not
possible to provide an assurance of the ultimate outcome of the litigation or an
estimate of the amount or range of potential loss, if any.

     Carlo Angostinelli et al. v. DeBartolo Realty Corp. et al. On October 16,
1996, a complaint was filed in the Court of Common Pleas of Mahoning County,
Ohio, captioned Carlo Angostinelli et al. v. DeBartolo Realty Corp. et al. The
                ----------------------------------------------------------
named defendants are SD Property Group, Inc., an indirect 99%-owned subsidiary
of SPG, and DeBartolo Properties Management, Inc., a subsidiary of the
Management Company, and the plaintiffs are 27 former employees of the
defendants. In the complaint, the plaintiffs alleged that they were recipients
of deferred stock grants under the DeBartolo Realty Corporation ("DRC") Stock
Incentive Plan (the "DRC Plan") and that these grants immediately vested under
the DRC Plan's "change in control" provision as a result of the DRC Merger.
Plaintiffs asserted that the defendants' refusal to issue them approximately
542,000 shares of DRC common stock, which is equivalent to approximately 370,000
Paired Shares computed at the 0.68 exchange ratio used in the DRC Merger,
constituted a breach of contract and a breach of the implied covenant of good
faith and fair dealing under Ohio law. Plaintiffs sought damages equal to such
number of shares of DRC common stock, or cash in lieu thereof, equal to all
deferred stock ever granted to them under the DRC Plan, dividends on such stock
from the time of the grants, compensatory damages for breach of the implied
covenant of good faith and fair dealing, and punitive damages. The plaintiffs
and the defendants each filed motions for summary judgment. On October 31, 1997,
the Court of Common Pleas entered a judgment in favor of the defendants granting
their motion for summary judgment. The plaintiffs appealed this judgment to the
Seventh District Court of Appeals in Ohio. On

                                       15
<PAGE>

August 18, 1999, the District Court of Appeals reversed the summary judgement
order in favor of the defendants entered by the Common Pleas Court and granted
plaintiffs' cross motion for summary judgement, remanding the matter to the
Common Pleas Court for the determination of plaintiffs' damages. The defendants
petitioned the Ohio Supreme Court asking that they exercise their discretion to
review and reverse the Appellate Court decision, but the Ohio Supreme court did
not grant the petition for review. The case has been remanded to the Court of
Common Pleas of Mahoning County, Ohio, to conduct discovery relevant to each
Plaintiff's damages and the counterclaims asserted by the SPG Operating
Partnership. As a result of the appellate court's decision, the SPG Operating
Partnership recorded a $12,000 loss in the third quarter of 1999 related to this
litigation as an unusual item.

     Roel Vento et al v. Tom Taylor et al. An affiliate of the SPG Operating
Partnership is a defendant in litigation entitled Roel Vento et al v. Tom Taylor
                                                  ------------------------------
et al., in the District Court of Cameron County, Texas, in which a judgment in
- ------
the amount of $7,800 was entered against all defendants. This judgment includes
approximately $6,500 of punitive damages and is based upon a jury's findings on
four separate theories of liability including fraud, intentional infliction of
emotional distress, tortious interference with contract and civil conspiracy
arising out of the sale of a business operating under a temporary license
agreement at Valle Vista Mall in Harlingen, Texas. The SPG Operating Partnership
appealed the verdict and on May 6, 1999, the Thirteenth Judicial District
(Corpus Christi) of the Texas Court of Appeals issued an opinion reducing the
trial court verdict to $3,364 plus interest. The SPG Operating Partnership filed
a petition for a writ of certiorari to the Texas Supreme Court requesting that
they review and reverse the determination of the Appellate Court. The Texas
Supreme Court has not yet determined whether it will take the matter up on
appeal. Management, based upon the advice of counsel, believes that the ultimate
outcome of this action will not have a material adverse effect on the SPG
Operating Partnership.

     The SPG Operating Partnership currently is not subject to any other
material litigation other than routine litigation and administrative proceedings
arising in the ordinary course of business. On the basis of consultation with
counsel, management believes that such routine litigation and administrative
proceedings will not have a material adverse impact on the SPG Operating
Partnership's financial position or its results of operations.

Note 11 - New Accounting Pronouncements

     On June 15, 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities ("SFAS 133"). SFAS 133 establishes accounting
and reporting standards requiring that every derivative instrument (including
certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts) be recorded in the
balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at its fair value. SFAS
133 requires that changes in the derivative's fair value be recognized currently
in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. Special
accounting for qualifying hedges allows a derivative's gains and losses to
offset related results on the hedged item in the income statement, and requires
that a company formally document, designate, and assess the effectiveness of
transactions that receive hedge accounting.

     SFAS 133 will be effective for the SPG Operating Partnership beginning with
the 2001 fiscal year and may not be applied retroactively. Management is
currently evaluating the impact of SFAS 133, which it believes could increase
volatility in earnings and other comprehensive income.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations


     Certain statements made in this report may constitute "forward-looking
statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act
of 1995. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance
or achievements of the SPG Operating Partnership to be materially different from
any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such
forward-looking statements. Such factors include, among others, the following:
general economic and business conditions, which will, among other things, affect
demand for retail space or retail goods, availability and creditworthiness of
prospective tenants, lease rents and the terms and availability of financing;
adverse changes in the real estate markets including, among other things,
competition with other companies and technology; risks of real estate
development and acquisition; governmental actions and initiatives; substantial
indebtedness; conflicts of interests; maintenance of REIT status; and
environmental/safety requirements.

     Overview

     As of March 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, SPG Properties, Inc. ("SPG
Properties"), held a 47.9% and 48.0% direct and indirect ownership interest in
Simon Property Group, LP (the "SPG Operating Partnership"), respectively. This
investment is their sole asset and represents their only source of income. For
these reasons, management has based the following discussion on the results of
operations and financial position of the SPG Operating Partnership.

     The following Property acquisitions and openings (the "Property
Transactions") impacted the SPG Operating Partnership's consolidated results of
operations in the comparative periods. On January 29, 1999, the SPG Operating
Partnership acquired the remaining 15% ownership interests in Lakeline Mall and
Lakeline Plaza for approximately $21.8 million. On March 1, 1999, the SPG
Operating Partnership acquired the remaining 50% ownership interest in Century
III Mall for approximately $57.0 million. On June 28, 1999, the SPG Operating
Partnership purchased the remaining 50% interest in Haywood Mall for
approximately $68.8 million. On October 27, 1999, the SPG Operating Partnership
acquired Arsenal Mall for approximately $66.3 million. In November 1999, the SPG
Operating Partnership opened The Shops at North East Mall and Waterford Lakes
Town Center.

     Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change

     On December 3, 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101 ("SAB 101"), which addressed certain revenue
recognition policies, including the accounting for overage rent by a landlord.
SAB 101 requires overage rent to be recognized as revenue only when each
tenant's sales exceeds their sales threshold. The SPG Operating Partnership
previously recognized overage rent based on reported and estimated sales through
the end of the period, less the applicable prorated base sales amount. The SPG
Operating Partnership adopted SAB 101 effective January 1, 2000 and recorded a
loss from the cumulative effect of an accounting change of $12.3 million in the
first quarter of 2000. In addition, SAB 101 will impact the timing in which
overage rent is recognized throughout each year, but will not have a material
impact on the total overage rent recognized in each full year.

     Results of Operations

Three Months ended March 31, 2000 vs. Three Months Ended March 31, 1999

     Operating income increased $13.9 million or 7.1% for the three months ended
March 31, 2000, as compared to the same period in 1999. This increase includes
the results of the Property Transactions ($4.8 million). Excluding these
transactions, operating income increased approximately $9.1 million, primarily
resulting from a $14.4 million increase in minimum rents and a $4.1 million
increase in interest income, partially offset by a $5.2 million increase in
depreciation and amortization and a $3.2 million decrease in gains from sales of
real property. The increase in minimum rent primarily results from increased
occupancy levels, the replacement of expiring tenant leases with renewal leases
at higher minimum base rents, and a $2.2 million increase in rents from tenants
operating under license agreements. The increase in depreciation and
amortization is primarily due to an increase in depreciable real estate realized
through renovation and expansion activities. In addition, as described above,
the SPG Operating Partnership adopted SAB 101 effective January 1, 2000, which
changed the timing in which overage rents were recognized throughout the year.
The negative impact to consolidated overage rents in 2000 as compared to 1999
was estimated to be approximately $4.4 million.

     Interest expense increased $20.1 million, or 14.5% for the three months
ended March 31, 2000, as compared to the same period in 1999. This increase is
primarily a result of overall increases in interest rates during the comparative
periods of approximately $5 million, the Property Transactions ($4.3 million)
and incremental interest on borrowings under the Credit Facility

                                       17
<PAGE>

to complete the 1999 acquisition of ownership interests in 14 regional malls
from New England Development Company (the "NED Acquisition") ($3.0 million) and
acquire an ownership interest in Mall of America ($0.9 million).

     The $7.1 million net gain on the sale of an asset in 2000 results from the
sale of the SPG Operating Partnership's interest in Lakeland Square Mall for
$45.0 million.

     Income from unconsolidated entities increased from $12.3 million in 1999 to
$17.3 million in 2000, resulting from a $6.5 million increase in income from the
Management Company, partially offset by a $1.5 million decrease in income from
unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The increase in Management
Company income is primarily the result of an increase in management fees ($3.0
million) and a decrease in the income tax provision ($2.8 million), which was
primarily the result of a tax refund recognized in 2000 ($2.0 million).

     The $0.4 million and $1.8 million extraordinary losses in 2000 and 1999,
respectively, are the net results from refinancings and early extinguishments of
debt.

     During the first quarter of 2000, the SPG Operating Partnership recorded a
$12.3 million expense resulting from the cumulative effect of an accounting
change as described above.

     Net income of the SPG Operating Partnership was $59.2 million for the three
months ended March 31, 2000, which reflects a decrease of $5.7 million over the
same period in 1999, primarily for the reasons discussed above. Net income was
allocated to the partners of the SPG Operating Partnership based on their
preferred Unit preferences and weighted average ownership interests in the SPG
Operating Partnership during the period.

     Liquidity and Capital Resources

     As of March 31, 2000, the SPG Operating Partnership's balance of
unrestricted cash and cash equivalents was $114.9 million, including $34.3
million related to the SPG Operating Partnership's gift certificate program,
which management does not consider available for general working capital
purposes. The SPG Operating Partnership has a $1.25 billion unsecured revolving
credit facility (the "Credit Facility") which had available credit of $436
million at March 31, 2000. The Credit Facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 65
basis points and has an initial maturity of August 2002, with an additional one-
year extension available at the SPG Operating Partnership's option. SPG and the
SPG Operating Partnership also have access to public equity and debt markets.

     Management anticipates that cash generated from operating performance will
provide the necessary funds on a short- and long-term basis for its operating
expenses, interest expense on outstanding indebtedness, recurring capital
expenditures, and distributions to shareholders in accordance with REIT
requirements. Sources of capital for nonrecurring capital expenditures, such as
major building renovations and expansions, as well as for scheduled principal
payments, including balloon payments, on outstanding indebtedness are expected
to be obtained from: (i) excess cash generated from operating performance; (ii)
working capital reserves; (iii) additional debt financing; and (iv) additional
equity raised in the public markets.

     Financing and Debt

     At March 31, 2000, the SPG Operating Partnership had consolidated debt of
$8,845 million, of which $6,136 million is fixed-rate debt bearing interest at a
weighted average rate of 7.27% and $2,709 million is variable-rate debt bearing
interest at a weighted average rate of 6.92%. As of March 31, 2000, the SPG
Operating Partnership had interest rate protection agreements related to $439
million of consolidated variable-rate debt. The SPG Operating Partnership's
interest rate protection agreements did not materially impact interest expense
or weighted average borrowing rates for the three months ended March 31, 2000 or
1999.

     The SPG Operating Partnership's share of total scheduled principal payments
of mortgage and other indebtedness, including unconsolidated joint venture
indebtedness, over the next five years is $6,117 million, with $4,431 million
thereafter. The SPG Operating Partnership, together with SPG and the SRC
Operating Partnership (See Note 1 to the financial statements) have a combined
ratio of consolidated debt-to-market capitalization was 57.8% and 58.1% at March
31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively.

     On March 24, 2000, the SPG Operating Partnership refinanced $450 million of
unsecured debt, which became due and bore interest at LIBOR plus 65 basis
points. The new facility matures March 2001 and also bears interest at LIBOR
plus 65 basis points.

                                       18
<PAGE>

     Acquisitions

     Management continues to review and evaluate a limited number of individual
property and portfolio acquisition opportunities. Management believes, however,
that due to the rapid consolidation of the regional mall business, coupled with
the current status of the capital markets, that acquisition activity in the near
term will be a less significant component of the Company's growth strategy.
Management believes that funds on hand and amounts available under the Credit
Facility provide the means to finance certain acquisitions. No assurance can be
given that the SPG Operating Partnership will not be required to, or will not
elect to, even if not required to, obtain funds from outside sources, including
through the sale of debt or equity securities, to finance significant
acquisitions, if any.

     Dispositions

     During the first quarter of 2000, the SPG Operating Partnership sold its
interests in one regional mall for $45.0 million, including the buyer's
assumption of $26.0 million of mortgage debt, resulting in a net gain of $7.1
million. The net proceeds of approximately $19.2 million, were used primarily to
reduce the outstanding borrowings on the Credit Facility. Also, on April 30,
2000, the SPG Operating Partnership sold an office building for approximately
$71 million. The net proceeds of approximately $70.4 million were used for
general working capital purposes.

     In addition to the Property sales described above, as a continuing part of
the SPG Operating Partnership's long-term strategic plan, management continues
to pursue the sale of its remaining non-retail holdings and a number of retail
assets that are no longer aligned with the SPG Operating Partnership's strategic
criteria, including four community centers currently under contract for sale.
Management expects the sale prices of its non-core assets, if sold, will not
differ materially from the carrying value of the related assets.

     Development Activity

     New Developments. Development activities are an ongoing part of the SPG
Operating Partnership's business. Simon Group currently has two Properties under
construction, which are scheduled to open in 2000. Simon Group invested
approximately $27 million on new developments during the first quarter of 2000
and expects to invest a total of approximately $130 million on new developments
in 2000.

     Strategic Expansions and Renovations. A key objective of the SPG Operating
Partnership is to increase the profitability and market share of the Properties
through the completion of strategic renovations and expansions. Simon Group has
a number of renovation and/or expansion projects currently under construction,
or in preconstruction development. Simon Group invested approximately $44
million on renovations and expansions during the first quarter of 2000 and
expects to invest a total of approximately $270 million on renovations and
expansions in 2000.

     Technology Initiatives. The SPG Operating Partnership is involved in a
number of activities designed to take advantage of new retail opportunities of
the digital age. Elements of the strategy include digitizing the existing assets
of the Properties by implementing internet web sites for each of the Properties
and creating products that leverage the digitalization of consumers and mall
merchants through an enhanced broadband network called merchantwired. In
addition, the SPG Operating Partnership recently announced it is joining with
leading real estate companies across a broad range of property sectors to form a
real estate technology company, which will be designed to form, incubate and
sponsor real estate-related Internet, e-commerce and broadband enterprises;
acquire interests in existing "best of breed" companies; and act as a
consolidator of real estate technology across property sectors. These new
activities may generate losses in the first two to three years, while programs
are being developed and customer bases are being established. The SPG Operating
Partnership is obligated to funding commitments of approximately $45 million
related to these programs over the next two years.

     Distributions. The SPG Operating Partnership declared a distribution of
$0.505 per Unit in the first quarter of 2000. The current annual distribution
rate is $2.02 per Unit. Future distributions will be determined based on actual
results of operations and cash available for distribution.

     Investing and Financing Activities

     Cash used in investing activities of the SPG Operating Partnership of $78
million for the three months ended March 31, 2000 includes capital expenditures
of $103 million, a loan to the SRC Operating Partnership of $5 million and
investments in unconsolidated joint ventures of $71 million, which includes $45
million related to a financing transaction with the remainder consisting
primarily of development funding. These cash uses are partially offset by
distributions from unconsolidated entities of $72 million; net proceeds of $19
million from the sale of Simon Group's interest in Lakeland Square Mall; and a
$10 million

                                       19
<PAGE>

repayment of advances to the Management Company. Distributions from
unconsolidated entities includes approximately $49 million related to a
financing transaction, with the remainder resulting primarily from operating
activities.

     Cash used in financing activities of the SPG Operating Partnership for the
three months ended March 31, 2000 was $67 million and includes net distributions
of $145 million, partially offset by net borrowings of $78 million.

     Inflation

     Inflation has remained relatively low and has had a minimal impact on the
operating performance of the Properties. Nonetheless, substantially all of the
tenants' leases contain provisions designed to lessen the impact of inflation.
Such provisions include clauses enabling the SPG Operating Partnership to
receive percentage rentals based on tenants' gross sales, which generally
increase as prices rise, and/or escalation clauses, which generally increase
rental rates during the terms of the leases. In addition, many of the leases are
for terms of less than ten years, which may enable the SPG Operating Partnership
to replace existing leases with new leases at higher base and/or percentage
rentals if rents of the existing leases are below the then-existing market rate.
Substantially all of the leases, other than those for anchors, require the
tenants to pay a proportionate share of operating expenses, including common
area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, thereby reducing the SPG
Operating Partnership's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses
resulting from inflation.

     However, inflation may have a negative impact on some of the SPG Operating
Partnership's other operating items. Interest and general and administrative
expenses may be adversely affected by inflation as these specified costs could
increase at a rate higher than rents. Also, for tenant leases with stated rent
increases, inflation may have a negative effect as the stated rent increases in
these leases could be lower than the increase in inflation at any given time.

     Seasonality

     The shopping center industry is seasonal in nature, particularly in the
fourth quarter during the holiday season, when tenant occupancy and retail sales
are typically at their highest levels. In addition, shopping malls achieve most
of their temporary tenant rents during the holiday season. As a result of the
above, earnings are generally highest in the fourth quarter of each year.

Item 3. Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosure About Market Risk

     Sensitivity Analysis. Simon Group's future earnings, cash flows and fair
values relating to financial instruments are primarily dependent upon prevalent
market rates of interest, primarily LIBOR. Based upon consolidated indebtedness
and interest rates at March 31, 2000, a 0.25% increase in the market rates of
interest would decrease future earnings and cash flows by approximately $6.3
million, and would decrease the fair value of debt by approximately $164
million. A 0.25% decrease in the market rates of interest would increase future
earnings and cash flows by approximately $6.3 million, and would increase the
fair value of debt by approximately $174 million.
