                       THE MACERICH COMPANY (The Company)

            NOTES TO CONDENSED AND CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                             (Dollars in thousands)
                                   (Unaudited)

1.       Interim Financial Statements and Basis of Presentation:

         The  accompanying  consolidated  financial  statements  of The Macerich
         Company (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally
         accepted   accounting   principles   ("GAAP")  for  interim   financial
         information  and with the  instructions  to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
         Regulation  S-X.  They  do  not  include  all of  the  information  and
         footnotes required by GAAP for complete  financial  statements and have
         not been audited by independent public accountants.

         The unaudited interim consolidated  financial statements should be read
         in conjunction with the audited  consolidated  financial statements and
         related notes included in the Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K for
         the year ended  December 31, 1999.  In the opinion of  management,  all
         adjustments  (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for
         a fair presentation of the financial statements for the interim periods
         have been made.  The results for  interim  periods are not  necessarily
         indicative  of  the  results  to be  expected  for  a  full  year.  The
         accompanying  consolidated  balance  sheet as of December  31, 1999 has
         been  derived  from  the  audited  financial  statements,  but does not
         include all disclosure required by GAAP.

         Certain  reclassifications  have  been  made in the  1999  consolidated
         financial  statements  to  conform  to  the  2000  financial  statement
         presentation.

         In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange  Commission  issued Staff
         Accounting Bulletin 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements,"
         ("SAB 101") which became effective for periods beginning after December
         15, 1999. This bulletin modified the timing of revenue  recognition for
         percentage   rent  received  from  tenants.   This  change  will  defer
         recognition  of a significant  amount of percentage  rent for the first
         three calendar  quarters into the fourth  quarter.  The Company applied
         this accounting  change as of January 1, 2000. The cumulative effect of
         this change in accounting principle, at the adoption date of January 1,
         2000, including the pro rata share of joint ventures, was approximately
         $1,750,000.

         In June  1998,  the  FASB  issued  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
         Standard  ("SFAS") 133,  "Accounting  for  Derivative  Instruments  and
         Hedging  Activities,"  ("SFAS 133") which requires  companies to record
         derivatives  on the balance sheet,  measured at fair value.  Changes in
         the fair values of those derivatives will be accounted for depending on
         the  use  of  the   derivative  and  whether  it  qualifies  for  hedge
         accounting.  The key criterion for hedge accounting is that the hedging
         relationship must be highly effective in achieving  offsetting  changes
         in fair value or cash  flows.  In June 1999,  the FASB issued SFAS 137,
         "Accounting for Derivative  Instruments and Hedging  Activities," which
         delays the  implementation  of SFAS 133 from January 1, 2000 to January
         1, 2001. In June 2000,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 138,  "Accounting  for
         Certain  Derivative  Instruments  and Certain  Hedging  Activities - an
         Amendment of FASB  Statement  No. 133,"  ("SFAS138"),  which amends the
         accounting and reporting standards of SFAS 133. The Company has not yet
         determined  when it will  implement  SFAS  133 and  SFAS 138 nor has it
         completed  the  analysis  required  to  determine  the  impact  on  its
         consolidated financial statements.

         Earnings Per Share ("EPS")

         During  1998,  the  Company  implemented  SFAS No. 128,  "Earnings  per
         Share." The  computation  of basic  earnings  per share is based on net
         income and the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for
         six and three  months  ending June 30, 2000 and 1999.  The  convertible
         debentures  and  convertible  preferred  stock were not included in the
         calculation since the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
         The  Operating  Partnership  units ("OP units") not held by the Company
         have been  included  in the  diluted  EPS  calculation  since  they are
         redeemable on a one-for-one basis for common stock. The following table
         reconciles the basic and diluted earnings per share calculation:

3.       Investments  in  Unconsolidated  Joint Ventures and the Management
         Companies, Continued:

         The Company  accounts for the Management  Companies and joint ventures
         using the equity method of accounting.

         On February 18, 1999,  the Company,  through a 51/49 joint venture with
         Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan Board ("Ontario Teachers") closed on the
         first phase of a two phase  acquisition  of a portfolio of  properties.
         The phase one closing included the acquisition of three regional malls,
         the  retail  component  of a  mixed-use  development,  five  contiguous
         properties and two non-contiguous community shopping centers comprising
         approximately  3.6 million  square feet for a total  purchase  price of
         approximately  $427,000.  The purchase price was funded with a $120,000
         loan placed  concurrently  with the  closing,  $140,400 of debt from an
         affiliate of the seller,  and $39,400 of assumed  debt.  The balance of
         the purchase  price was paid in cash.  The Company's  share of the cash
         component was funded with the proceeds from two refinancings of centers
         and borrowings  under the Company's  line of credit.  On July 12, 1999,
         the Company closed on the second phase of the  acquisition.  The second
         phase  consisted  of the  acquisition  of the office  component  of the
         mixed-use  development for a purchase price of approximately  $111,000.
         The purchase  price was funded with a $76,700 loan placed  concurrently
         with the closing and the balance was paid in cash. The Company's  share
         of the cash  component was funded from  borrowings  under the Company's
         line of credit.

         On June 2, 1999,  Macerich Cerritos,  LLC ("Cerritos"),  a wholly-owned
         subsidiary of Macerich Management Company, acquired Los Cerritos Center
         in Cerritos,  California.  The total purchase price was $188,000, which
         was funded with $120,000 of debt placed  concurrently  with the closing
         and a $70,800 loan from the Company.  The Company funded this loan from
         borrowings under a $60,000 bank loan agreement and the balance from the
         Company's line of credit.

         On October  26,  1999,  49% of the  membership  interests  of  Macerich
         Stonewood,  LLC  ("Stonewood"),  Cerritos  and Macerich  Lakewood,  LLC
         ("Lakewood"),  were sold to Ontario Teachers' and concurrently  Ontario
         Teachers' and the Company  contributed their 99% collective  membership
         interests  in  Stonewood  and  Cerritos  and 100% of  their  collective
         membership  interests  in  Lakewood  to Pacific  Premier  Retail  Trust
         ("PPRT"),  a real estate investment trust,  owned  approximately 51% by
         the  Company  and 49% by Ontario  Teachers.  Lakewood,  Stonewood,  and
         Cerritos own Lakewood  Mall,  Stonewood  Mall and Los Cerritos  Center,
         respectively.  The total  value of the  transaction  was  approximately
         $535,000.  The properties were  contributed to PPRT subject to existing
         debt  of  $322,000.   The  net  cash   proceeds  to  the  Company  were
         approximately  $104,000  which were used for  reduction of debt and for
         general corporate purposes.

         The  results  of these  joint  ventures  are  included  for the  period
         subsequent to their respective dates of acquisition.

         On October 27, 1999,  Albany  Plaza,  a 145,462  square foot  community
         center,  which was owned 51% by the Macerich  Management  Company,  was
         sold.

3. Investments  in  Unconsolidated  Joint Ventures and the Management
   Companies - Continued:

   Significant accounting policies used by the unconsolidated joint ventures and
   the Management Companies are similar to those used by the Company.

   Included  in  mortgage  notes  payable  are  amounts  due  to  affiliates  of
   Northwestern  Mutual Life  ("NML") of $161,187  and  $156,219 for the periods
   ended June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999, respectively.  NML is considered a
   related  party  because it is a joint  venture  partner  with the  Company in
   Macerich  Northwestern   Associates.   Interest  expense  incurred  on  these
   borrowings  amounted  to $4,645 and $2,465 for the six months  ended June 30,
   2000 and 1999, respectively; and $2,150 and $1,234 for the three months ended

(a)           This represents the monthly payment of principal and interest.

(b)           This  amount  represents  the  monthly  payment of  principal  and
              interest. In addition, contingent interest, as defined in the loan
              agreement,  may be due to the  extent  that 35% of the  amount  by
              which  the  property's  gross  receipts  (as  defined  in the loan
              agreement)  exceeds a base amount  specified  therein.  Contingent

              amortized  over the life of the loan using the effective  interest
              method.  At June 30, 2000 and  December  31, 1999 the  unamortized
              discount was $347 and $364, respectively.

5.       Mortgage Notes Payable, Continued:

(e)       The loan bears  interest at LIBOR plus  1.75%.  In  addition,  the
          Company can  increase  the loan amount up to $90,000.  The Company
          has  committed  to  refinance  this loan with a 10 year fixed rate
          loan bearing interest at 7.70%.

(f)       This loan will be replaced with a new ten year loan for $70,000 at a
          fixed interest rate of 7.89%.

(g)       Reflects the Company's pro rata share of debt.

(h)       In  connection  with the  acquisition  of this  Center,  the joint
          venture  assumed  $39,425  of  debt.  At  acquisition,  this  debt was
          recorded at fair market value of $41,475 which included an unamortized
          premium  of $2,050.  This  premium  was being  amortized  as  interest
          expense over the life of the loan using the effective interest method.
          The joint  venture's  monthly debt service was $349 and was calculated
          based on an 8.60%  interest  rate.  At December  31,  1999,  the joint
          venture's  unamortized  premium was $1,365. On June 1, 2000, the joint
          venture  paid off in full the old debt and a new note was  issued  for
          $61,000  bearing  interest at a fixed rate of 8.06% and maturing  June
          2010. The new loan is interest only until December 31, 2001. Effective
          January  1,  2002,  monthly  principal  and  interest  of $450 will be
          payable  through  maturity.  The new debt is  cross-collateralized  by
          Kitsap  Mall and Kitsap  Place.

(i)       On August 15, 1995, the Company issued $127,000 of  collateralized
          fixed rate notes (the "Notes").  The Notes bear interest at an average
          fixed  rate of 7.20% and mature in July 2005.  The Notes  require  the
          Company to deposit all cash flow from the property  operations  with a
          trustee to meet its obligations under the Notes. Cash in excess of the
          required amount,  as defined,  is released.  Included in cash and cash
          equivalents  is $750 of restricted  cash deposited with the trustee at
          June 30, 2000 and at December 31, 1999.  All of the Notes were assumed
          by the Pacific Premier Retail Trust joint venture on October 26, 1999.

(j)       Concurrent with the acquisition,  the joint venture placed $76,700
          of  debt  and  obtained  a  construction  loan  for an  additional
          $16,000.  Principal is drawn on the construction loan as costs are
          incurred.  As of June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999,  $11,753 and
          $6,745 of principal  has been drawn under the  construction  loan,
          respectively.

(k)       The loan bears  interest at LIBOR plus 1.75%.  At June 30, 2000 and
          December 31,  1999,  the total  interest was 8.40% and 8.23%,
          respectively.

5.       Mortgage Notes Payable, Continued:


(l)       In connection  with the  acquisition of these  Centers,  the joint
          venture  assumed  $485,000 of mortgage notes payable which are secured
          by the properties. At acquisition,  the $300,000 fixed rate portion of
          this debt reflected a fair market value of $322,700, which included an
          unamortized  premium of $22,700.  This  premium is being  amortized as
          interest  expense  over  the  life of the  loan  using  the  effective
          interest  method.  At  June  30,  2000  and  December  31,  1999,  the
          unamortized  balance of the debt  premium  was  $17,361  and  $18,565,
          respectively.  This  debt  is due in May  2006  and  requires  monthly
          payments  of  $1,852.  $184,500  of this  debt is due in May  2003 and
          requires monthly interest payments at a variable weighted average rate
          (based on LIBOR) of 7.15% and 6.96% at June 30, 2000 and  December 31,
          1999, respectively.  This variable rate debt is covered by an interest
          rate cap agreement which  effectively  prevents the interest rate from
          exceeding 11.53%. On April 12, 2000, the joint venture issued $138,500
          of additional  mortgage  notes which are secured by the properties and
          are due in May 2006.  $57,100  of this  debt  requires  fixed  monthly
          interest  payments of $387 at a weighted  average  rate of 8.13% while
          the floating rate notes of $81,400 require monthly  interest  payments
          at a variable  weighted  average rate (based on LIBOR) of 7.02%.  This
          variable rate debt is covered by an interest rate cap agreement  which
          effectively prevents the interest rate from exceeding 11.83%.

(m)       On January 4, 1999, the joint venture replaced the old debt with a
          new loan of $40,000.  The loan has an  interest  rate of 6.52% and
          matures January 2009. The debt is interest only until January 2001
          at which time monthly  payments of principal  and interest will be
          due of $299.

         The Company  periodically enters into treasury lock agreements in order
         to hedge its  exposure to interest  rate  fluctuations  on  anticipated
         financings.  Under these  agreements,  the Company  pays or receives an
         amount equal to the  difference  between the treasury lock rate and the
         market rate on the date of settlement,  based on the notional amount of
         the hedge.  The realized  gain or loss on the  contracts is recorded on
         the balance  sheet in other assets and  amortized  as interest  expense
         over the period of the hedged loans.

         Certain mortgage loan agreements contain a prepayment penalty provision
         for the early extinguishment of the debt.

         Total interest  capitalized for the wholly-owned centers during the six
         and  three   months   ended  June  30,  2000  was  $2,690  and  $1,591,
         respectively;  and total interest  capitalized during the six and three
         months ended June 30, 1999 was $2,739 and $1,488, respectively.

         The market value of mortgage notes payable for the wholly-owned Centers
         at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 is estimated to be approximately
         $1,205,411  and  $1,179,469,  respectively,  based on current  interest
         rates for comparable loans.

6.       Bank and Other Notes Payable:

         The  Company  has a credit  facility  of  $150,000  with a maturity  of
         February  2001  currently  bearing  interest at LIBOR plus  1.15%.  The
         interest  rate on such credit  facility  fluctuates  between  0.95% and
         1.15% over LIBOR.  As of June 30, 2000 and December  31, 1999,  $29,400
         and $57,400 of borrowings were outstanding under this line of credit at
         interest rates of 8.4% and 7.65%, respectively.  As of August 14, 2000,
         $17,000 was outstanding under this line of credit.

         Additionally,   the  Company   issued   $5,776  in  letters  of  credit
         guaranteeing  performance  by the Company of certain  obligations.  The
         Company does not believe that these  letters of credit will result in a
         liability to the Company.

         During January 1999, the Company entered into a bank  construction loan
         agreement  to fund  $89,200 of costs  related to the  redevelopment  of
         Pacific View.  The loan bears  interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% and matures
         in  February  2001.  Principal  is  drawn  as  construction  costs  are
         incurred.  As of June 30,  2000 and  December  31,  1999,  $82,614  and
         $72,671 of principal has been drawn under the loan, respectively.

         In addition,  the Company had a note payable of $30,600 due in February
         2000  payable to the seller of the  acquired  portfolio.  The note bore
         interest at 6.5%.  The entire $30,600 loan was paid off on February 18,
         2000.

7.       Convertible Debentures:

         During  1997,  the  Company  issued and sold  $161,400  of  convertible
         subordinated  debentures (the  "Debentures")  due 2002. The Debentures,
         which  were  sold at par,  bear  interest  at 7.25%  annually  (payable
         semi-annually)  and are  convertible  at any time, on or after 60 days,
         from the date of issue at a conversion  price of $31.125 per share. The
         Debentures  mature on December 15, 2002 and are callable by the Company
         after June 15, 2002 at par plus accrued interest.

8.       Related-Party Transactions:

         The Company  engaged the Management  Companies to manage the operations
         of its properties and certain  unconsolidated  joint ventures.  For the
         six and three months  ending June 30, 2000,  management  fees of $1,437
         and $724 respectively,  and for the six and three months ended June 30,
         1999, management fees of $1,620 and $812 respectively, were paid to the
         Management  Companies  by the  Company.  For the six and  three  months
         ending  June  30,   2000,   management   fees  of  $3,449  and  $1,752,
         respectively,  and for the six and three  months  ended June 30,  1999,
         management  fees of $2,033 and $1,142,  respectively,  were paid to the
         Management Companies by the joint ventures.

         Certain  mortgage notes are held by one of the Company's  joint venture
         partners (See Note 5). Interest  expense in connection with these notes
         was $5,042 and $5,053 for the six months  ended June 30, 2000 and 1999,
         respectively;  and $2,523 and $2,540 for the three  months  ending June
         30,  2000 and 1999,  respectively.  Included  in  accounts  payable and

8.       Related-Party Transactions - Continued:

         In 1997 and 1999 certain  executive  officers  received  loans from the
         Company  totaling  $6,500.   These  loans  are  full  recourse  to  the
         executives.  $6,000 of the  loans  were  issued  under the terms of the
         employee stock incentive plan, bear interest at 7%, are due in 2007 and
         2009  and  are  secured  by  the  Company  common  stock  owned  by the
         executives.  On February 9, 2000,  $300 of the $6,000 of the loans were
         forgiven.  The $500  loan is non interest  bearing and is forgiven
         ratably over a five year term.  These loans  receivable are included in
         other assets at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999.

         Certain Company  officers and affiliates  have guaranteed  mortgages of
         $21,750 at one of the Company's joint venture  properties and $2,000 at
         Greeley Mall.

9.       Commitments and Contingencies:

         The Company has certain properties subject to noncancellable  operating
         ground leases. The leases expire at various times through 2070, subject
         in some cases to  options  to extend  the terms of the  lease.  Certain
         leases  provide for  contingent  rent payments based on a percentage of
         base rental income,  as defined.  Ground rent expenses,  net of amounts
         capitalized,  were $170 and ($28)  for the six and three  months  ended
         June 30,  2000,  respectively.  Ground  rent  expenses,  net of amounts
         capitalized, were $456 and $257 for the six and three months ended June
         30,  1999,  respectively.  There  were no  contingent  rents in  either
         period.

         Perchloroethylene  ("PCE") has been detected in soil and groundwater in
         the vicinity of a dry  cleaning  establishment  at North Valley  Plaza,
         formerly  owned by a joint  venture  of  which  the  Company  was a 50%
         member.  The property was sold on December  18,  1997.  The  California
         Department of Toxic Substances  Control ("DTSC") advised the Company in
         1995  that  very  low  levels  of   Dichloroethylene   ("1,2  DCE"),  a
         degradation  byproduct of PCE, had been  detected in a municipal  water
         well  located  1/4  mile  west of the dry  cleaners,  and  that the dry
         cleaning  facility may have  contributed to the introduction of 1,2 DCE
         into the water well.  According to DTSC, the maximum  contaminant level
         ("MCL") for 1,2 DCE which is permitted in drinking water is 6 parts per
         billion  ("ppb").  The 1,2  DCE was  detected  in the  water  well at a
         concentration  of 1.2 ppb,  which is below  the MCL.  The  Company  has
         retained  an  environmental  consultant  and  has  initiated  extensive
         testing of the site. The joint venture agreed  (between  itself and the
         buyer)  that it would be  responsible  for  continuing  to  pursue  the
         investigation   and   remediation  of  impacted  soil  and  groundwater
         resulting   from   releases  of  PCE  from  the  former  dry   cleaner.
         Approximately  $29 and $72 have  already  been  incurred  by the  joint
         venture  for  remediation,  and  professional  and  legal  fees for the
         periods ending June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. An additional $230
         remains  reserved by the joint  venture as of June 30, 2000.  The joint
         venture has been sharing  costs on a 50/50 basis with a former owner of
         the property and intends to look to additional  responsible parties for
         recovery.

9.       Commitments and Contingencies, Continued:

         The Company acquired Fresno Fashion Fair in December 1996. Asbestos has
         been detected in structural fireproofing throughout much of the Center.
         Testing data conducted by professional  environmental  consulting firms
         indicates that the  fireproofing  is largely  inaccessible  to building
         occupants and is well adhered to the structural members.  Additionally,
         airborne concentrations of asbestos were well within OSHA's permissible
         exposure limit ("PEL") of .1 fcc. The  accounting for this  acquisition
         includes a reserve of $3,300 to cover future  removal of this asbestos,
         as necessary. The Company incurred $24 and $82 in remediation costs for
         the six  months  ending  June  30,  2000  and  1999,  respectively.  An
         additional $2,759 remains reserved at June 30, 2000.

10.      Redeemable Preferred Stock:

         On February 25, 1998, the Company issued  3,627,131  shares of Series A
         cumulative  convertible redeemable preferred stock ("Series A Preferred
         Stock") for  proceeds  totaling  $100,000 in a private  placement.  The
         preferred  stock can be  converted  on a one for one basis into  common
         stock and will pay a quarterly  dividend  equal to the greater of $0.46
         per share, or the dividend then payable on a share of common stock.

         On June 17,  1998,  the  Company  issued  5,487,471  shares of Series B
         cumulative  convertible redeemable preferred stock ("Series B Preferred
         Stock") for  proceeds  totaling  $150,000 in a private  placement.  The
         preferred  stock can be  converted  on a one for one basis into  common
         stock and will pay a quarterly  dividend  equal to the greater of $0.46
         per share, or the dividend then payable on a share of common stock.

         No  dividends  will be declared or paid on any class of common or other
         junior stock to the extent that  dividends on Series A Preferred  Stock
         and Series B Preferred Stock have not been declared and/or paid.


11.      Subsequent Events:

         On  August  9,  2000,  a  dividend/distribution  of $0.51 per share was
         declared  for  common  stockholders  and OP unit  holders  of record on
         August 18, 2000. In addition,  the Company declared a dividend of $0.51
         on the  Company's  Series A Preferred  Stock and a dividend of $0.51 on
         the Company's  Series B Preferred  Stock.  All  dividends/distributions
         will be payable on September 6, 2000.

         (*)   denotes the Company owns its interests in these  Centers  through
               an unconsolidated  joint venture or through one of the Management
               Companies.

         The  financial  statements  include  the  results of these  Centers for
         periods subsequent to their acquisition.

         On February 18, 1999,  the Company,  through a 51%/49% joint  venture,
         known as Pacific Premier Retail Trust ("PPRT"), with Ontario Teachers'
         Pension Plan Board ("Ontario  Teachers")  acquired  Washington Square,
         Redmond Town Center,  Cascade  Mall,  Kitsap Mall and five  contiguous
         properties.

         On October  26,  1999,  49% of the  membership  interests  of  Macerich
         Stonewood,  LLC ("Stonewood"),  Macerich Cerritos, LLC ("Cerritos") and
         Macerich Lakewood, LLC ("Lakewood"), were sold to Ontario Teachers' and
         concurrently  Ontario  Teachers' and the Company  contributed their 99%
         collective  membership  interests in Stonewood and Cerritos and 100% of
         their  collective  membership  interests  in Lakewood  to PPRT,  a real
         estate investment trust, owned approximately 51% by the Company and 49%
         by Ontario  Teachers.  Lakewood,  Stonewood,  and Cerritos own Lakewood
         Mall, Stonewood Mall and Los Cerritos Center,  respectively.  The total
         value of the transaction  was  approximately  $535,000.  The properties
         were contributed to PPRT subject to existing debt of $322,000.  The net
         cash  proceeds to the Company were  approximately  $104,000  which were
         used for reduction of debt and for general corporate purposes. Lakewood
         and Stonewood are referred to herein as the "Contributed JV Assets."

         On October 27, 1999,  Albany  Plaza,  a 145,462  square foot  community
         center,  which was owned 51% by the Macerich  Management  Company,  was
         sold.

         On November 12, 1999,  Eastland  Plaza,  a 65,313 square foot community
         center,  which was 51% owned by the Macerich  Management  Company,  was
         sold.

                       THE MACERICH COMPANY (The Company)

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations, Continued:

         The 1999 Joint  Venture  Acquisitions  are  reflected  using the equity
         method of accounting.  The results of these  acquisitions are reflected
         in the  consolidated  results of operations of the Company in equity in
         income of unconsolidated joint ventures and the Management Companies.

         Many of the variations in the results of operations,  discussed  below,
         occurred due to the 1999 Joint Venture  Acquisition  Centers,  the 1999
         Acquisition  Center  and  the  partial  sale  and  contribution  of the
         Contributed  JV Assets to PPRT during  1999.  Many  factors  impact the
         Company's  ability  to acquire  additional  properties;  including  the
         availability   and  cost  of  capital,   the  overall  debt  to  market
         capitalization  level,  interest  rates and  availability  of potential
         acquisition  targets  that meet the  Company's  criteria.  Accordingly,
         management is uncertain whether during 2000, and in future years, there
         will be similar  acquisitions and corresponding  increases in equity in
         income of  unconsolidated  joint ventures and the Management  Companies
         and funds from  operations  that occurred as a result of the 1999 Joint
         Venture  Acquisition  Centers.   Management  anticipates  the  pace  of
         acquisitions  to slow  considerably  in 2000 compared to 1999.  Pacific
         View (formerly known as Buenaventura Mall), Crossroads Mall-Boulder and
         Parklane Mall are  currently  under  redevelopment  and are referred to
         herein as the "Redevelopment Centers." All other Centers, excluding the
         1999 Acquisition  Center, the 1999 Joint Venture  Acquisition  Centers,
         the Contributed JV Assets and  Redevelopment  Centers,  are referred to
         herein as the "Same Centers," unless the context otherwise requires.

         The  bankruptcy  and/or  closure  of an  Anchor,  or its sale to a less
         desirable retailer, could adversely affect customer traffic in a Center
         and thereby  reduce the income  generated by that Center.  Furthermore,
         the closing of an Anchor  could,  under  certain  circumstances,  allow
         certain  other  Anchors or other  tenants to terminate  their leases or
         cease  operating  their  stores at the  Center or  otherwise  adversely
         affect occupancy at the Center.  Other retail stores at the Centers may
         also seek the protection of bankruptcy laws and/or close stores,  which
         could  result  in the  termination  of such  tenants  and thus  cause a
         reduction in cash flow generated by the Centers.

         In  addition,  the  Company's  success in the highly  competitive  real
         estate  shopping  center  business  depends  upon many  other  factors,
         including general economic  conditions,  the ability of tenants to make
         rent payments,  increases or decreases in operating expenses, occupancy
         levels,  changes in  demographics,  competition  from other centers and
         forms of retailing  and the ability to renew leases or relet space upon
         the expiration or termination of leases.

Results of Operations

   Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999

         Revenues

          Minimum and  percentage  rents  decreased by 10.1% to $98.1 million in
          2000 from $109.1 million in 1999.  Approximately  $15.0 million of the
          decrease related to the contribution of 100% and 99% of the membership
          interests of Lakewood Mall and Stonewood  Mall,  respectively,  to the
          PPRT joint venture on October 26, 1999. The Company's prorata share of
          results from those assets  subsequent to the  contribution  to PPRT is

                       THE MACERICH COMPANY (The Company)

Results of Operations - Continued:

Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999

         Revenues- Continued:

         Unconsolidated  Joint  Ventures.  In December 1999, the Securities and
         Exchange    Commission   issued   Staff   Accounting   Bulletin   101,
         "RevenueRecognition in Financial Statements," ("SAB 101") which became
         effective for periods after December 15, 1999. This bulletin  modified
         the timing of revenue  recognition  for percentage  rent received from
         tenants.  SAB 101 requires  deferral of the  recognition of percentage
         rent until the tenant's  annual sales  breakpoint  has been  exceeded.
         While  annual  revenue  from  percentage  rent will not be  materially
         impacted by this change,  the majority of percentage  rent will now be
         recognized  in the fourth  quarter of each year,  rather  than  spread
         throughout the year. The impact of SAB 101 represented approximately a
         $4.1  million  decrease in revenues  for the six months ended June 30,
         2000.. These decreases are offset by revenue increases of $5.0 million
         relating to the 1999  acquisition of Santa Monica Place,  $0.4 million
         increase at the Redevelopment Centers and $2.7 million of the increase
         was attributable to the Same Centers.

         Tenant recoveries increased to $49.4 million in 2000 from $47.3 million
         in 1999.  The 1999  acquisition  of Santa Monica Place  generated  $3.4
         million of the increase, $2.3 million of the increase was from the Same
         Centers  and  $0.4  million  from  the  Redevelopment   Centers.  These
         increases  were partially  offset by revenue  decreases of $4.3 million
         resulting from the  contribution of Lakewood Mall and Stonewood Mall to
         the PPRT joint venture.

         Other  income  increased  to $4.0  million in 2000 from $3.2 million in
         1999.  Approximately  $0.8 million of the increase  related to the 1999
         acquisition of Santa Monica Place.

         Expenses

         Shopping center expenses increased to $48.1 million in 2000 compared to
         $47.2  million in 1999.  Approximately  $3.8  million  of the  increase
         resulted from the 1999 acquisition of Santa Monica Place,  $1.7 million
         of the increase resulted from increased  property taxes and recoverable
         expenses at the Same Centers.  Additionally,  the Redevelopment Centers
         had an increase of $0.2 million in shopping center  expenses  resulting
         primarily from increased property taxes and recoverable expenses. These
         increases were offset by a decrease of $4.8 million  resulting from the
         contribution  of  Lakewood  Mall and  Stonewood  Mall to the PPRT joint
         venture.

         General and administrative  expenses increased to $3.2 million in 2000
         from $2.8 million in 1999 primarily as a result of higher compensation
         expense.

         Interest Expense

         Interest expense  decreased to $55.1 million in 2000 from $55.4 million
         in  1999.  Approximately  $4.6  million  of the  decrease  is from  the
         contribution of Lakewood Mall to the PPRT joint venture.  This decrease
         is offset by the  acquisition  activity  in 1999,  which was  partially
         funded with secured debt and  borrowings  under the  Company's  line of
         credit.

Comparison of Six Months Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999

         Depreciation and Amortization

         Depreciation and  amortization  decreased to $29.6 million in 2000 from
         $30.5  million in 1999.  Approximately  $2.3  million  of the  decrease
         relates  primarily to the  contribution  of Lakewood Mall and Stonewood
         Mall to the PPRT joint venture,  which is offset by an increase of $1.5
         million relating to the acquisition of Santa Monica Place.

         Income from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures and Management Companies

         The  income  from  unconsolidated  joint  ventures  and the  Management
         Companies  was  $13.1  million  for 2000,  compared  to income of $10.6
         million  in  1999.   A  total  of  $5.5  million  of  the  increase  is
         attributable to the 1999 Joint Venture Acquisitions and the Contributed
         JV  Assets.  These  increases  are  partially  offset by the  change in
         accounting  principle for  percentage  rent required by SAB 101 of $1.9
         million.

         Extraordinary Loss from Early Extinguishment of Debt

         In 1999,  the Company wrote off $1.0 million of  unamortized  financing
         costs, compared to no financing costs written off in 2000.

         Net Income Available to Common Stockholders

         As  a  result  of  the  foregoing,   net  income  available  to  common
         stockholders  decreased to $13.9  million in 2000 from $17.9 million in
         1999.

         Operating Activities

         Cash flow from  operations  was $48.7 million in 2000 compared to $58.9
         million in 1999.  The  decrease is primarily  because of decreased  net
         operating income from the factors mentioned above.

         Investing Activities

         Cash  generated  from  investing  activities was $51.5 million in 2000
         compared to cash utilized by investing activities of $192.6 million in
         1999.  The  change  resulted  primarily  from the  cash  contributions
         required by the Company for the joint  venture  acquisitions  of $70.1
         million in 1999 compared to $0.4 million in 2000. Additionally, a loan
         from the  Company for $81.3  million  was made to a joint  venture for
         acquisitions in 1999.  There were no loans made to affiliates in 2000.
         This is offset by increases in joint  venture  distributions  of $85.7
         million in 2000 compared to $10.4 in 1999.

         Financing Activities

         Cash  flow from  financing  activities  was  ($105.6)  million  in 2000
         compared to $133.2 million in 1999. The change resulted  primarily from
         the refinancing of Centers in 1999.

         Funds From Operations

         Primarily because of the factors mentioned above,  including the impact
         of the change in accounting  for  percentage  rent required by SAB 101,
         Funds from Operations - Diluted decreased 1.8% to $76.1 million in 2000
         from $77.5 million in 1999.

Comparison of Three Months Ended June 30, 2000 and 1999

         Revenues

          Minimum and  percentage  rents  decreased by 9.4% to $49.4  million in
          2000 from $54.5  million in 1999.  Approximately  $7.6  million of the
          decrease related to the contribution of 100% and 99% of the membership
          interests of Lakewood Mall and Stonewood  Mall,  respectively,  to the
          PPRT joint venture on October 26, 1999. The Company's prorata share of
          results from those assets  subsequent to the  contribution  to PPRT is
          reflected in Income from  Unconsolidated  Joint Ventures.  In December
          1999, the Securities and Exchange  Commission  issued Staff Accounting
          Bulletin 101,  "Revenue  Recognition in Financial  Statements,"  ("SAB
          101") which was adopted by the Company effective January 1, 2000. This
          bulletin  modified the timing of revenue  recognition  for  percentage
          rent  received  from  tenants.   SAB  101  requires  deferral  of  the
          recognition  of  percentage  rent  until  the  tenant's  annual  sales
          breakpoint  has been exceeded.  While annual  revenue from  percentage
          rent will not be materially  impacted by this change,  the majority of
          percentage  rent will now be recognized in the fourth  quarter of each
          year,  rather than spread  throughout  the year. The impact of SAB 101
          for the three months ended June 30, 2000  represented  approximately a
          $1.8 million decrease. These decreases are offset by revenue increases
          of $2.5  million  relating  to the 1999  acquisition  of Santa  Monica
          Place,  $0.5 million  increase at the  Redevelopment  Centers and $1.4
          million of the increase was attributable to the Same Centers.

         Tenant recoveries increased to $24.9 million in 2000 from $24.2 million
         in 1999.  The 1999  acquisition  of Santa Monica Place  generated  $1.8
         million of the increase, $0.7 million of the increase was from the Same
         Centers  and  $0.1  million  from  the  Redevelopment   Centers.  These
         increases  were partially  offset by revenue  decreases of $2.1 million
         resulting from the  contribution of Lakewood Mall and Stonewood Mall to
         the PPRT joint venture.

         Expenses

         Shopping center expenses increased to $24.2 million in 2000 compared to
         $24.0  million in 1999.  Approximately  $1.9  million  of the  increase
         resulted from the 1999 acquisition of Santa Monica Place,  $0.8 million
         of the increase resulted from increased  property taxes and recoverable
         expenses at the Same Centers. These increases were offset by a decrease
         of $2.4 million  resulting from the  contribution  of Lakewood Mall and
         Stonewood Mall to the PPRT joint venture.

         General and administrative  expenses increased to $1.7 million in 2000
         from $1.4 million in 1999 primarily as a result of higher compensation
         expense.

         Interest Expense

         Interest expense  decreased to $26.9 million in 2000 from $28.6 million
         in 1999.  This  decrease  of $1.7  million  related  primarily  of $2.3
         million  from the  contribution  of  Lakewood  Mall to the  PPRT  joint
         venture offset by the acquisition activity in 1999, which was partially
         funded with secured debt and  borrowings  under the  Company's  line of
         credit.

         Depreciation and Amortization

         Depreciation and  amortization  decreased to $15.0 million in 2000 from
         $15.3  million  in  1999.  This  decrease  relates   primarily  to  the
         contribution  of  Lakewood  Mall and  Stonewood  Mall to the PPRT joint
         venture offset by an increase relating to the 1999 acquisition of Santa
         Monica Place.

         Income from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures and Management Companies

         The  income  from  unconsolidated  joint  ventures  and the  Management
         Companies was $6.4 million for 2000, compared to income of $5.3 million
         in 1999. A total of $2.6 million of the change is  attributable  to the
         1999 Joint Venture  Acquisitions  and the Contributed JV Assets.  These
         increases  are partially  offset by the change in accounting  principle
         for percentage rent required by SAB 101 of $0.8 million.

         Net Income Available to Common Stockholders

         As  a  result  of  the  foregoing,   net  income  available  to  common

         Liquidity and Capital Resources

         The  Company  intends  to meet its short term  liquidity  requirements
         through cash generated from operations and working  capital  reserves.
         The  Company  anticipates  that  revenues  will  continue  to  provide
         necessary   funds  for  its   operating   expenses  and  debt  service
         requirements,  and to pay dividends to stockholders in accordance with
         REIT  requirements.  The Company  anticipates that cash generated from
         operations,  together  with  cash on hand,  will be  adequate  to fund
         capital  expenditures  which will not be reimbursed by tenants,  other
         than   non-recurring   capital   expenditures.   Capital   for   major
         expenditures  or major  redevelopments  has been,  and is  expected to
         continue to be, obtained from equity or debt financings  which include
         borrowings under the Company's line of credit and construction  loans.
         However,  many factors impact the Company's ability to access capital,
         such as its overall  debt level,  interest  rates,  interest  coverage
         ratios and  prevailing  market  conditions.  The Company  currently is
         undertaking a $90 million  redevelopment  of Pacific View. The Company
         has a bank  construction loan agreement to fund $89.2 million of these
         construction costs.

         The Company believes that it will have access to the capital  necessary
         to expand its business in accordance with its strategies for growth and
         maximizing  Funds from  Operations.  The Company  presently  intends to
         obtain  additional  capital  necessary to expand its business through a
         combination  of additional  public and private equity  offerings,  debt
         financings  and/or joint  ventures.  During 1998 and 1999,  the Company
         acquired two portfolios  through joint  ventures and raised  additional
         capital in 1999 from the sale of  interests  in two  properties  to one
         joint  venture  partner.   The  Company  believes  such  joint  venture
         arrangements  provide  an  attractive  alternative  to  other  forms of
         financing.

         The Company's total  outstanding loan indebtedness at June 30, 2000 was
         $2.2 billion (including its pro rata share of joint venture debt). This
         equated to a debt to Total Market Capitalization (defined as total debt
         of the Company,  including  its pro rata share of joint  venture  debt,
         plus  aggregate  market value of  outstanding  shares of common  stock,
         assuming full  conversion  of OP Units and preferred  stock into common
         stock) ratio of approximately  65% at June 30, 2000. The Company's debt
         consists primarily of fixed-rate conventional mortgages payable secured
         by individual properties.

         The  Company  has  filed  a  shelf  registration  statement,  effective
         December 8, 1997, to sell securities.  The shelf  registration is for a
         total of $500 million of common stock,  common stock warrants or common
         stock rights. During 1998, the Company sold a total of 7,920,181 shares
         of common stock under this shelf  registration.  The aggregate offering
         price of these transactions was approximately  $212.9 million,  leaving
         approximately  $287.1 million  available  under the shelf  registration
         statement.

         The Company has an unsecured  line of credit for up to $150.0  million.
         There were $29.4 million of borrowings outstanding at June 30, 2000. As
         of August 14, 2000,  $17.0 million was  outstanding  under this line of
         credit.

         At June 30, 2000, the Company had cash and cash  equivalents  available
         of $35.0 million.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations, Continued:

         Funds From Operations

         The  Company  believes  that  the  most  significant   measure  of  its
         performance  is Funds from  Operations  ("FFO").  FFO is defined by the
         National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") to be:
         Net income (loss)  (computed in accordance with GAAP),  excluding gains
         (or losses) from debt  restructuring and sales or write-down of assets,
         plus depreciation and amortization  (excluding depreciation on personal
         property and amortization of loan and financial  instrument  costs) and
         after  adjustments  for   unconsolidated   entities.   Adjustments  for
         unconsolidated  entities are calculated on the same basis. FFO does not
         represent  cash flow from  operations,  as defined by GAAP,  and is not
         necessarily  indicative of cash  available to fund all cash flow needs.
         The following reconciles net income available to common stockholders to
         FFO:

        Weighted  average number of shares includes the weighted average number

        outstanding  includes the effect of  outstanding  common stock  options

        are dilutive for the six and three months ending June 30, 2000 and 1999,
        and therefore  assumed  converted  to equity to calculate FFO - diluted.
        On February 25, 1998,  the Company sold $100 million of its Series A
        Preferred Stock.  On June 17,  1998,  the Company  sold $150  million of
        its Series B Preferred  Stock Each series of  preferred  stock can be
        converted on a one for one basis for common  stock.  These  preferred
        shares are not  assumed converted   for  purposes  of  net  income  per
        share  as  they  would  be anti-dilutive  to  that  calculation.  The
        preferred  shares  are  assumed converted  for  purposes of FFO diluted
        per share as they are  dilutive to that calculation.

         Included in minimum  rents were rents  attributable  to the  accounting
         practice of  straight-lining of rents. The amount of straight-lining of
         rents that impacted minimum rents was $0.6 million and $1.3 million for
         the six months  ended June 30,  2000 and 1999,  respectively;  and $0.4
         million and $0.7  million for the three  months ended June 30, 2000 and
         1999, respectively.

         Inflation

         In the last three years,  inflation has not had a significant impact on
         the Company  because of a relatively  low inflation  rate.  Most of the
         leases at the Centers have rent  adjustments  periodically  through the
         lease term.  These rent  increases  are either in fixed  increments  or
         based on increases in the Consumer  Price Index.  In addition,  many of
         the  leases  are for terms of less than ten years,  which  enables  the
         Company to replace existing leases with new leases at higher base rents
         if the rents of the existing  leases are below the then existing market
         rate. Additionally, most of the leases require the tenants to pay their
         pro rata  share of  operating  expenses.  This  reduces  the  Company's
         exposure to increases in costs and operating  expenses  resulting  from
         inflation.

         Seasonality

         The shopping center industry is seasonal in nature, particularly in the
         fourth quarter  during the holiday  season when retailer  occupancy and
         retail  sales are  typically  at their  highest  levels.  In  addition,
         shopping  malls  achieve  a  substantial  portion  of  their  specialty
         (temporary  retailer) rents during the holiday  season.  As a result of
         the above,  plus the accounting  change  discussed below for percentage
         rent,  earnings  are  generally  highest in the fourth  quarter of each
         year.

         New Accounting Pronouncements Issued

         In December 1999, the  Securities and Exchange  Committee  issued Staff
         Accounting Bulletin 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial  Statements"
         ("SAB  101"),  which  became  effective  for  periods  beginning  after
         December  15,  1999.  This  bulletin  modified  the  timing of  revenue
         recognition for percentage rent received from tenants. This change will
         defer  recognition of a significant  amount of percentage  rent for the
         first three  calendar  quarters  into the fourth  quarter.  The Company
         applied this  accounting  change as of January 1, 2000.  The cumulative
         effect of this change in  accounting  principle at the adoption date of
         January 1, 2000,  including the pro rata share of joint  ventures,  was
         approximately $1,750,000.

         New Accounting Pronouncements Issued- Continued:

         In June  1998,  the  FASB  issued  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting
         Standard  ("SFAS") 133,  "Accounting  for  Derivative  Instruments  and
         Hedging  Activities,"  ("SFAS 133") which requires  companies to record
         derivatives  on the balance sheet,  measured at fair value.  Changes in
         the fair values of those derivatives will be accounted for depending on
         the  use  of  the   derivative  and  whether  it  qualifies  for  hedge
         accounting.  The key criterion for hedge accounting is that the hedging
         relationship must be highly effective in achieving  offsetting  changes
         in fair value or cash  flows.  In June 1999,  the FASB issued SFAS 137,
         "Accounting for Derivative  Instruments and Hedging  Activities," which
         delays the  implementation  of SFAS 133 from January 1, 2000 to January
         1, 2001.  In June 2000,  the FASB issued SFAS No. 138,  Accounting  for
         Certain  Derivative  Instruments  and Certain  Hedging  Activities - an
         Amendment  of FASB  Statement  No.  133," ("SFAS 138") which amends the
         accounting and reporting standards of SFAS 133. The Company has not yet
         determined  when it will  implement  SFAS  133 and  SFAS 138 nor has it
         completed  the  analysis  required  to  determine  the  impact  on  its
         financial statements.

           Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

         The Company's  primary  market risk exposure is interest rate risk. The
         Company has managed and will  continue to manage  interest rate risk by
         (1) maintaining a conservative  ratio of fixed rate,  long-term debt to
         total debt such that  variable  rate  exposure is kept at an acceptable
         level,  (2)  reducing  interest  rate  exposure  on  certain  long-term
         variable  rate  debt  through  the  use  of  interest  rate  caps  with
         appropriately matching maturities,  (3) using treasury rate locks where
         appropriate  to fix rates on  anticipated  debt  transactions,  and (4)
         taking  advantage of favorable  market  conditions  for long-term  debt
         and/or equity.

         The  following  table  sets  forth  information  as of  June  30,  2000
         concerning  the  Company's  long  term  debt   obligations,   including
         principal cash flows by scheduled  maturity,  weighted average interest
         rates and estimated fair value ("FV").

         Of the $235.3  million of variable  rate debt  maturing in 2001,  $29.4
         million  represents  the  outstanding  borrowings  under the  Company's
         credit  facility and $82.6 million  represents  outstanding  borrowings
         under the Pacific View construction loan. Additionally, the Company has
         committed to refinancing  $85.0 million of floating rate debt scheduled
         to mature in 2001 with a 10 year fixed rate loan  bearing  interest  at
         7.70%.

         In addition,  the Company has assessed the market risk for its variable
         rate debt and  believes  that a 1%  increase  in  interest  rates would
         decrease future earnings and cash flows by  approximately  $3.7 million
         per year based on $368.2 million outstanding at June 30, 2000.

         The fair value of the  Company's  long term debt is estimated  based on
         discounted  cash  flows at  interest  rates  that  management  believes
         reflect the risks  associated  with long term debt of similar  risk and
         duration.
