For purposes of the Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations, the transactions are assumed to have occurred on the first day of each period. (b)The apartment portfolio, which was sold to one purchaser, consisted of the following properties: Somerset Lakes in Indianapolis, IN, Steeplechase and Hunter's Creek, both in Cincinnati, OH, Beechlake in Durham, NC, Walden Village in Atlanta, GA, Briarwood in Fayetteville, NC and Windgate Place and Woodfield Gardens, both in Charlotte, NC. (c)The Northwest Malls, which were sold to one purchaser, consisted of the following properties: Valley Mall in Yakima, WA, Valley North Mall in Wenatchee, WA and Mall 205 and Plaza 205, both in Portland, OR. (d) Both malls were sold to one purchaser. (e)The Southwestern Shopping Malls, which will be sold to one purchaser, consist of the following properties: Alexandria Mall in Alexandria, LA, Brazos Mall in Lake Jackson, TX, Killeen Mall in Killeen, TX, Mesilla Valley Mall in Las Cruces, NM, Shawnee Mall in Shawnee, OK and Villa Linda Mall in Santa Fe, NM. Net proceeds reflect an estimate of approxomately a $5 million prepayment penalty for the Park Plaza Mall in Little Rock, AR, which will not be sold in this transaction but is cross collateralized with the aforementioned malls. The Pro Forma Financial Statements also assume that the debt associated with Park Plaza of approximately $36.9 million will be repaid with net proceeds from the sale of the Southwestern Shopping Malls at 1.25 times the balance outstanding (approximately $46 million). The amount of the repayment of the Park Plaza debt in excess of the balance outstanding at June 30, 1999 (approximately $9.2 million) is used to reduce the mortgage balances assumed on the six Southwestern Shopping Malls. Consequently, the debt assumed by the purchaser is approximately $115 million. Additionally, approximately $11.8 million of cash as of June 30, 1999, which is additional collateral for the mortgages securing these malls, will be reclassified from restricted to unrestricted cash upon the sale.

For purposes of the June 30, 1999 Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet, $37.2 million repayment of the note payable and $85.9 million repayment of the bank credit facility was reflected in the June 30, 1999 historical Combined Balance Sheet as the transactions occurred prior to June 30, 1999. 3) The apartment division general and administrative expenses are eliminated on the first day of each period for the Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations, as the entire portfolio was sold. The retail division general and administrative expenses are reduced on the first day of each period for the Pro Forma Combined Statements of Operations. The reduction represents the closure of a regional office which will no longer be necessary pending the property sales. 4) As the purchase price for the six Southwestern Shopping Malls was below net book value of these malls at June 30, 1999, a $9 million impairment loss was recorded as of June 30, 1999. The $9 million impairment loss also is included in the 1998 Pro Forma Combined Statement of Operations.
