ITEM 2. ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS
As reported in the report Form 8-K filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on August 18, 2000, affiliates of the Mills Corporation
("the Company") completed a transaction whereby the Company disposed of its
interests in Gwinnett Marketfair in Duluth, Georgia; Mount Prospect Plaza in
Mount Prospect Illinois; Western Hills Plaza in Cinncinati, Ohio; West Falls
Church in Falls Church, Virginia; Butterfield Plaza in Downers Grove, Illinois;
Coopers Plaza in Voorhees, New Jersey; Crosswinds Center in St. Petersburg,
Florida; Fashion Place in Columbia, South Carolina; Germantown Commons in
Germantown, Maryland; and Montgomery Village in Gaithersburg, Maryland
(collectively the "Disposed Properties") for an aggregate sales price of $142.0
million. The Disposed Properties were sold by the Company to Kejack, Inc., an
unrelated third party. The Company netted $25.5 million in proceeds and the
buyer assumed $111.0 million of existing debt. As anticipated in the Form 10-Q
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 14, 2000, the
Company invested approximately $9.0 million of the net proceeds from the sale of
the Disposed Properties into a low risk portfolio of single tenant A-rated
credit net leases. The investment was completed in two transactions. On
September 22, 2000, the Company acquired 25 net lease properties and on October
3, 2000, the Company acquired an additional 21 net lease properties
(collectively the "Acquired Properties"). The aggregate purchase price for the
Acquired Properties was $114.0 million. The aggregate sales price was determined
through arms-length negotiations. The Acquired Properties were sold to the
Company by Wolverine Equity Company 99J Limited Partnership (25 net lease
properties) and various investor corporations which were the beneficial owners
of various business trusts (21 net lease properties). The sellers were unrelated
third parties. The properties are all subject to single tenant net leases
operating as CVS. The leases are triple net leases that contain indemnification
for liabilities customarily associated with possession of the site (including,
without limitation, certain specified environmental liabilities). The tenants'
obligation under the leases are guaranteed by CVS Corporation, a Delaware
corporation. The Company assumed $105.2 million of existing debt and paid $8.8
million in cash from the net proceeds of the the Company's sale of the Disposed
Properties.
