<p style="color:#333333;margin:4.5pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">On February&nbsp;16,
2007, SPG-FCM Ventures, LLC (&#147;SPG-FCM&#148;), a newly formed joint venture owned 50%
by an entity owned by Simon Property Group, Inc. (&#147;SPG&#148;) and funds managed by
Farallon Capital Management, L.L.C. (&#147;<i>Farallon</i>&#148;)
executed an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February&nbsp;12, 2007
(the &#147;<i>Merger Agreement</i>&#148;), with
The Mills Corporation (&#147;<i>Mills</i>&#148;)
and The Mills Limited Partnership (&#147;<i>Mills LP</i>&#148;).</font></p>

<p style="color:#333333;margin:9.0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">Under the terms of the
Merger Agreement, SPG-FCM will acquire Mills through a tender offer, at a price
of $25.25 in cash per share (the &#147;<i>Offer
Price</i>&#148;), for all outstanding shares of Mills common stock. The
tender offer will be followed by a merger, in which all common shares not
acquired in the tender offer will be converted into the right to receive the
Offer Price. Completion of the tender offer will be subject to the valid tender
of a number of shares of Mills common stock that, when added together with any
shares of Mills common stock already owned by SPG, Farallon and their
respective controlled subsidiaries, represents a majority of the outstanding
shares of Mills common stock, on a fully diluted basis. Completion of the
tender offer is also subject to other customary conditions, including the
absence of injunctions or illegality, receipt of a tax opinion, and the absence
of a material adverse effect on Mills. Holders of shares of preferred stock of
Mills will receive cash in an amount equal to the liquidation preference of
their shares following the completion of the merger.</font></p>

<p style="color:#333333;margin:9.0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">Holders of common units
of Mills LP will receive the Offer Price per unit in cash at the completion of
the merger, and Merger LP will merge into Mills LP. Certain eligible Mills LP
unitholders will have the option to exchange their Mills LP units for limited
partnership units of Simon Property Group, L.P. (&#147;<i>Simon OP</i>&#148;) based upon a fixed exchange ratio of 0.211 Simon
OP units for each unit of Mills LP. If offering this election would reasonably
be expected to delay the closing of the merger, then these eligible holders
will instead receive a preferred limited partnership unit in Mills LP, which
will carry only the right to elect the cash Offer Price or the Simon OP units
offered to holders in the merger.</font></p>

<p style="color:#333333;margin:9.0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">The foregoing description
of the Merger Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full
text of the Merger Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current
Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. The Merger Agreement
has been attached to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It
is not intended to provide any other factual information about Mills, Mills LP
or SPG-FCM. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and
warranties contained in the Merger Agreement are qualified by information in
confidential disclosure schedules provided by Mills and Mills LP to SPG-FCM in
connection with the signing of the Merger Agreement. These disclosure schedules
contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the
representations and warranties set forth in the Merger Agreement. Moreover,
certain representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement were used for
the purpose of allocating risk between Mills and Mills LP, on the one hand, and
SPG-FCM, on the other hand, rather than establishing matters as facts.
Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties in the
Merger Agreement as characterizations of the actual state of facts about Mills,
Mills LP or SPG-FCM.</font></p>

<p style="color:#333333;margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">In connection with the
Merger Agreement, Simon OP and Farallon entered into equity commitment letters,
dated as of February&nbsp;12, 2007 with SPG-FCM. The Equity Commitments provide
that each of Simon OP and Farallon will provide at least $650 million in equity
financing to SPG-FCM immediately prior to the closing of the tender offer (or,
if earlier, the closing of the merger). If additional funds are required to
complete the tender offer or the merger, Simon OP has agreed to provide those
funds to SPG-FCM in the form of debt financing.</font></p>

<p style="color:#333333;margin:4.5pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">On February&nbsp;16,
2007, in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, SPG, through
Simon OP, entered into a Credit and Guaranty Agreement (the &#147;<i>Credit Agreement</i>&#148;) with Mills, Mills LP
and certain subsidiaries of Mills. Simon OP will serve as Administrative Agent
(the &#147;<i>Administrative Agent</i>&#148;) and
Collateral Agent for the Credit Agreement.</font></p>

<br clear="all" style="page-break-before:always;">



<p style="color:#333333;margin:9.0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">The Credit Agreement
provides a senior secured term loan in a principal amount of approximately
$1,188 million (the &#147;<i>Term Loan</i>&#148;)
and a revolving loan facility to Mills LP in an aggregate principal amount not
to exceed approximately $365 million (the &#147;<i>Revolving
Facility</i>,&#148; and together with the Term Loan the &#147;<i>Credit Facilities</i>&#148;). The proceeds of the
Credit Facilities were used to repay amounts and certain fees due upon the
termination of an agreement with a potential prior purchaser of Mills. The
Credit Agreement will be also provide funds for working capital requirements
and general corporate purposes of Mills LP and its subsidiaries in accordance
with an approved budget. To the extent permitted by existing contractual
obligations, the Credit Facilities are or will be secured by substantially all
of the assets of Mills LP, as well as all equity interests owned by Mills,
Mills LP and certain of their subsidiaries in material operating properties.
Subject to certain exceptions, the Credit Facilities are or will be guaranteed
by all material subsidiaries of Mills and Mills LP that are permitted to do so
in accordance with existing contractual obligations.</font></p>

<p style="color:#333333;margin:9.0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">The Credit Facilities
will have a maturity of February&nbsp;16, 2008, which date may be extended if
the termination date of the Merger Agreement is similarly extended.</font></p>

<p style="color:#333333;margin:9.0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">The Credit Facilities
will bear interest at LIBOR plus 270 basis points, with the underlying LIBOR
rate being reset monthly. If the Merger Agreement is terminated, other than for
a breach of the Merger Agreement by SPG-FCM, the Credit Facilities will
thereafter bear interest at LIBOR plus 575 basis points. In connection with the
entry into the Credit Agreement, Mills and Mills LP agreed to pay a fee to
Simon OP of approximately $23 million, 66% of which was paid upon entry into
the Credit Agreement, and the balance of which is payable upon the earlier of
(a)&nbsp;August&nbsp;16, 2007, (b)&nbsp;the effective time of the merger and
(c)&nbsp;the date on which the Merger Agreement is terminated and all
outstanding loans under the Credit Agreement are repaid in full.</font></p>

<p style="color:#333333;margin:0pt 0pt 12.0pt;"><font size="2" color="black" face="Times New Roman" style="color:windowtext;font-size:10.0pt;">The Credit Agreement
requires compliance, within certain variances, with an agreed budget. The
Credit Agreement generally contains covenants, mandatory prepayment
requirements and events of default. In the case of any event of default that
occurs while the Merger Agreement is in effect (and prior to 60 days after the
effective time of the merger), the lenders under the Credit Agreement are
prohibited from exercising default remedies unless the event of default in
question is attributable to a payment default, a bankruptcy event, an
acceleration of certain other material indebtedness, or a willful and
intentional breach of the Credit Agreement. As was the case under the
