TAUBMAN ANNOUNCES RESTRUCTURING
Initiatives Position Company for Long-Term Growth


     BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich., August 18 -- Taubman Centers, Inc. (NYSE:TCO), one
of the nation's leading developers of regional shopping centers, today announced
the following restructuring and recapitalization initiatives:

      o  Taubman and the General  Motors  Pension  Trusts  (GMPT) have reached a
         definitive  agreement to exchange GMPT's holdings in the Taubman Realty
         Group Limited Partnership for interests in 10 Taubman shopping centers;

      o  Taubman will  restructure  its balance  sheet for  increased  financial
         flexibility by replacing unsecured debt with secured debt;

      o  Taubman  will  simplify  its governance structure  to reflect increased
         public ownership; and

      o  Taubman will significantly reduce general and administrative expenses.

     "The actions we're  announcing  today create a  strengthened,  more focused
development  company with materially  enhanced  prospects for long-term growth,"
said Robert Taubman,  president and chief executive  officer of Taubman Centers.
"We're confident that  restructuring  ownership,  divesting assets,  emphasizing
development,  moving to secured financing, and streamlining the organization are
winning strategies for our company and our investors."

GMPT Partnership Units Exchanged for Centers

     Central to the company's  restructuring  is a significant  reduction in the
ownership position of the General Motors Pension Trusts (GMPT), which hold their
interests in a combination of Taubman Realty Group (TRG)  partnership  units and
Taubman Centers common shares.  Taubman Centers, a real estate investment trust,
is the managing general partner of TRG, which is a limited partnership.

     Taubman  will  exchange  interests  in 10 shopping  centers  (see  attached
property listing), together with a pro rata share of debt, for all of the GMPT's
partnership units,  representing  approximately 37 percent of TRG's equity base.
Taubman  will  continue  to  manage  the  GMPT  properties  under a  third-party
management  agreement.  Although GMPT will no longer hold TRG partnership units,
the Trusts will retain their 8.4 million shares of Taubman Centers common stock.

     "The GM Pension  Trusts have been partners in the Taubman  shopping  center
business since 1985 and were  instrumental in the creation of the publicly owned
REIT in 1992,"  said W. Allen Reed,  president  and chief  executive  officer of
General Motors Investment  Management  Corporation.  "This is the largest single
investment in our portfolio.  The restructuring  announced today will accomplish
two  objectives  for the Trusts:  It reduces our ownership in Taubman to a level
more  consistent  with our  investments  in  other  publicly  traded  companies;
secondly,  it enables us to maintain our exposure to a high quality portfolio of
regional centers on a direct  ownership basis,  consistent with our overall real
estate strategy.  It also positions Taubman to realize higher growth through its
development  strategy.  As the GM Pension  Trusts  will  continue  to be a major
shareholder in Taubman Centers,  we look forward to participating in that future
growth."

     Morgan  Stanley  was  financial  advisor  to  Taubman,  and has  provided a
fairness  opinion on the  transaction,  which has been  approved  by the Taubman
Centers  Board of  Directors  and is  scheduled  to close by  September  30. AEW
Capital  Management,  which  has  advised  the  Trusts  with  respect  to  their
investment  in  TRG  since  its  inception,   represented   the  Trusts  in  the
transaction.

Enhanced Long-Term Growth

     All projects in the Taubman  development  pipeline,  including the recently
announced  joint ventures with the Mills  Corporation,  remain with the company.
"We will be opening on average at least one center per year for the  foreseeable
future (see attached  development project opening schedule) at returns we expect
to be  substantially  in  excess of  acquisition  yields.  With a  smaller  core
portfolio,  every dollar of development capital spending will contribute more to
our rate of growth.  We've invested heavily in our development program, and as a
result are solidly  positioned to achieve double digit growth over the next five
years," said Mr. Taubman.  

     "The 15 operating  properties we are retaining,  with 1997 average sales of
$410 per square  foot,  constitute  the most  productive  portfolio  of regional
shopping centers in the industry, and provide an excellent base for internal and
external growth," said Mr. Taubman.

Cost Reductions

     "An  important  aspect of this  restructuring  is a  reduction  of over $10
million in general and  administrative  expense by 1999," said Mr. Taubman.  "In
addition,  we are using this  transaction  as a catalyst  for change  within our
organization,  taking a hard look at everything we do. Without  compromising the
best aspects of our culture,  we intend to identify  further  efficiencies  that
will materially improve operating margins."

Recapitalization to Increase Financial Flexibility

     "Concurrent  with this  reconfiguration,  we will  restructure  our balance
sheet and initiate a new approach to financing," added Lisa A. Payne,  executive
vice  president and chief  financial  officer.  "Today we are beginning a tender
offer  for TRG's  $708  million  of  public  unsecured  debt.  Our  intent is to
refinance the company on a secured basis, lengthening debt maturities from three
to 10 years. 

     "We  believe  our  new  capital  structure  will  both  increase  financing
flexibility and reduce our cost of capital.  As a secured borrower,  the company
will tap a significantly deeper and broader debt market, and lessen its reliance
on the equity market to finance our growth," said Ms. Payne.

Governance Simplified

     "The  restructuring  we're  announcing today also allows us to simplify our
governance,"  said Ms. Payne.  "With  Taubman  Centers now having a majority and
controlling  interest in TRG, we will  dissolve the TRG  Partnership  Committee.
GMPT will  relinquish  its two seats on the Taubman  Centers Board of Directors,
resulting in the REIT having a majority of independent  directors.  In addition,
the  REIT  and  partnership  financial  statements  will  now  be  consolidated,
dramatically simplifying the reporting and analysis of our business."


NOTE:
This  release  contains  forward-looking  statements  within the  meaning of the
federal  securities laws.  Actual future  performance,  outcomes and results may
differ  materially  from  those  expressed  as a result  of a number  of  risks,
uncertainties and assumptions that cannot be accurately  predicted.  Examples of
these  factors  include  (without  limitation)  general  industry  and  economic
conditions, interest rate trends, leasing demand and rental rates, unanticipated
development  costs and delays,  the continued  availability  of financing in the
amounts and the terms necessary to support future business,  changing department
store expansion strategies, tenant bankruptcies, and competition.
