As disclosed in a Schedule 13D filed by Price Group with the

with respect to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share,
of Legacy ("Legacy Common Stock"), Price Group beneficially
owned 5,250,000 shares of Legacy Common Stock.
On September 18, 2001, Legacy merged with and into Merger Sub
pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger,
dated as of March 21, 2001
CUSIP NO. 74144P106 SCHEDULE 13D/A PAGE 4 OF 8 PAGES
(the "Merger Agreement"), among Enterprises, Legacy, and
Merger Sub (the "Merger"). Pursuant to the terms of the Merger
Agreement, each share of Legacy Common Stock was converted
during the Merger into 0.6667 of a share of Price Legacy
Common Stock. Accordingly, in connection with the Merger and
pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the 5,250,000
shares of Legacy Common Stock beneficially owned by Price
Group became 3,500,175 shares of Price Legacy Common Stock.
Also on September 18, 2001, pursuant to a Conversion
Agreement, dated as of April 12, 2001 (the "Conversion
Agreement"), among Enterprises, The Sol and Helen Price Trust,
Legacy, and Warburg, Pincus Equity Partners, L.P. and certain
of its affiliates (such affiliates and Warburg, Pincus Equity
Partners, L.P. being collectively referred to herein as

approximately $9.3 million payable by Legacy and held by Price
Group into 1,681,142 shares of 9% Series B Junior Convertible
Preferred Stock of Price Legacy ("Series B Preferred Stock")
and a warrant to purchase 233,679 shares of Price Legacy
Common Stock at an exercise price of $8.25 per share (the
"Price Group Warrant").
The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by
reference to the Merger Agreement, the Conversion Agreement,
and the Form of Common Stock Purchase Warrant, a copy of each
of which is attached hereto respectively as Exhibits 1, 2, and
3.
On October 3, 2001, Price Group acquired 1,950,000 shares of
Price Legacy Common Stock, with a margin loan from Morgan

herein by reference.
ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.2
(A)-(C) The information set forth above in Item 3 is incorporated
herein by reference.
Price Group presently beneficially owns 5,683,854 shares of
Price Legacy Common Stock, which represent approximately 13.9%
of the outstanding Price Legacy Common Stock. Of these shares,
Price Group presently has sole voting and dispositive power
over all 5,683,854 shares and shared voting and dispositive
power over no shares. 5,450,175 of the 5,683,854 shares are
issued and outstanding shares of Price Legacy Common Stock;
the remainder consists of the right to purchase 233,679 shares
of Price Legacy Common Stock through exercise of the Price
Group Warrant.

sole voting and dispositive power over all 6,667 shares and

together with the Price Legacy Common Stock on matters on
which the Price Legacy Common Stock is entitled to vote. On
these matters, each share of Series A Preferred Stock only has
one-tenth of the vote of a share of Price Legacy Common Stock.
The Managers presently may be deemed to beneficially own, in
the aggregate, 13,134,550 shares of Series A Preferred Stock
(including the 850,285 shares beneficially owned by Price
Group and options to purchase 120,929 shares).
