Electing Contributor is nullified in its entirety in accordance with the second
preceding sentence shall not be an Electing Contributor for any purpose
hereunder. For each Electing Contributor, the "Election Amount" shall be the
amount of the Total Consideration that will be paid to such Electing Contributor
pursuant to this Agreement in the form of K-SCUs in accordance with the election
of such Electing Contributor pursuant to this Section 3.2, taking into account
any reduction in the amount of such election pursuant to the preceding sentence.
The K-SCUs will be entitled to receive a basic distribution, on a quarterly
basis, in an amount equal to a six percent (6%) per annum yield on the K-SCU
Amount for the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the last day
of the calendar quarter during which the Closing Date occurs and the four (4)
succeeding calendar quarters, and thereafter a basic distribution, on a
quarterly basis, in an amount equal to a six and one-quarter percent (6.25%) per
annum yield on the K-SCU Amount. At the Closing, CBL/OP shall issue to each
Electing Contributor an aggregate number of K-SCUs in an amount equal to the
Election Amount for such Electing Contributor divided by the product of (x) 1.25
multiplied by (y) the average closing price of the common stock of CBL &
Associates Properties, Inc., a Delaware corporation and real estate investment
trust ("CBL/REIT"), for the ten (10) day period during which the CBL/REIT common
stock is traded immediately prior to the Closing Date, as reported by the New
York Stock Exchange ("NYSE").

                           INSPECTION AND TITLE REVIEW

4.1   CBL/OP's Inspections.

4.1.1 Inspections, Tests and Studies. CBL/OP acknowledges that prior to the
Final Approval Date, CBL/OP and CBL/OP's authorized agents, consultants,
contractors and representatives have been afforded access to the Real Property
to inspect and conduct such tests and studies of the Real Property as CBL/OP has
deemed appropriate to determine the suitability of the Property for CBL/OP's
purposes, and that CBL/OP has performed all such investigations as CBL/OP deems
necessary. CBL/OP and CBL/OP's authorized agents, consultants, contractors and
representatives may continue to have reasonable access to the Real Property at
all reasonable times during normal business hours to inspect and conduct
reasonably necessary non-invasive tests and studies of the Real Property and the
Improvements, but notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, CBL/OP shall have no right to terminate this Agreement by reason of
any matter revealed by any such entry, inspection, tests and studies. CBL/OP
shall not conduct any invasive inspections, tests or studies of the Real
Property without the specific prior written approval of Property Owner, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld by Property Owner. If CBL/OP desires
access to the Real Property, CBL/OP shall give at least 24 hours prior written
or oral notice to Property Owner and Property Owner's Property Manager of
CBL/OP's intention to enter the Real Property. Property Owner may impose
reasonable conditions on any inspections, tests and studies to be conducted by
CBL/OP or CBL/OP's authorized agents, consultants, contractors and
representatives to ensure that CBL/OP takes all appropriate safety precautions
and observes the requirements of Section 4.4 below. At Property Owner's option,
a representative of Property Owner may be present for any such inspection, test
or study. CBL/OP shall bear the cost of all inspections, tests and studies
conducted by or on behalf of CBL/OP.

4.1.2 CBL/OP's Delivery of Information to Property Owner. Upon Property Owner's
request, CBL/OP agrees to deliver to Property Owner, promptly following the
receipt thereof by CBL/OP and at no cost to Property Owner, copies of any and
all reports, tests, studies and test results obtained by CBL/OP from independent
third parties by or on behalf of CBL/OP with respect to the Property before or
after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, including those involving
the structural, geologic, environmental or other condition of the Property or
otherwise relating to the Property (collectively, "CBL/OP's Information").
Property Owner hereby acknowledges that CBL/OP has not made and does not make
any warranty or representation regarding the truth or accuracy of any CBL/OP's
Information, and neither Property Owner nor any Contributor shall have the right
to rely on the same unless it obtains the written permission to do so from the
preparer thereof. Nothing contained in this Section 4.1.2 shall be deemed to
obligate CBL/OP to deliver to Property Owner any CBL/OP's Information which
CBL/OP obtains following the Closing.

                                       12


4.1.3 Tenant and Governmental Authority Inquiries. Subject to the provisions of
this Section and Section 4.4 below, CBL/OP shall have the right, as part of
CBL/OP's due diligence investigation, to contact the Tenants, the Anchor Stores,
Property Owner's Property Manager and governmental authorities about various
aspects of the Property. CBL/OP shall provide Property Owner with at least 24
hours prior written or oral notice of each such inquiry, contact, interview and
meeting and Property Owner shall have the right to have a representative of
Property Owner present and otherwise participate in all such inquiries,
contacts, interviews and meetings. Contributors shall not be liable or bound in
any manner by any oral or written statements, representations or information
provided by any Tenant, any Anchor Store, Property Owner's Property Manager, any
governmental authority or any of such parties' personnel, employees or
contractors (including any on site building manager or building engineer).

4.2   Document Review.

4.2.1 Property Records. Following the Effective Date, Property Owner shall make
available to CBL/OP either at the Real Property or at Property Owner's offices
in Leawood, Kansas, or at the Property Manager's office in Leawood, Kansas,
copies of those documents and property records relating solely to the Property,
other than the Excluded Documents, which are within the possession of Property
Owner or Property Owner's affiliates and advisors. Following the Effective Date,
Property Owner shall direct Property Owner's Property Manager to make available
to CBL/OP at the Property Manager's office, or at the on-site management office
at the Real Property, all of those documents and property records relating
solely to the Property, other than the Excluded Documents, which are in the
possession of Property Owner's Property Manager. All of such documents, reports,
tests, studies and property records delivered to, made available to, copied
and/or reviewed by or on behalf of CBL/OP in connection with the Property
(whether before or after the Effective Date and specifically including all
Tenant Leases and Service Contracts), other than the Excluded Documents, are
sometimes referred to collectively herein as the "Property Records."

4.2.2 Excluded Documents. As used herein, "Excluded Documents" shall mean (a)
any purchase and escrow agreements and correspondence pertaining to Property
Owner's acquisition of the Property (other than documents pertaining to the
physical or environmental condition of the Real Property), (b) any documents
pertaining to the potential acquisition of the Property by any past or
prospective purchasers (other than documents relating to the physical or
environmental condition of the Real Property), (c) any third party purchase
inquiries and correspondence, appraisals or economic evaluations of the
Property, (d) Property Owner's organizational documents and records, internal
budgets, financial projections, reports or correspondence prepared by Property
Owner or by Property Owner's advisor exclusively for Property Owner or Property
Owner's constituent principals and any other internal documents (other than

Real Property), (e) any personnel records and files maintained by or on behalf
of Property Owner with respect to individuals, if any, employed at or in
connection with the Real Property which Property Owner is obligated by law or
otherwise to keep confidential, and (f) any documents or materials which are the
subject of a confidentiality obligation. If any document or material subject to
a confidentiality obligation will be binding on the Company after the Closing,
Property Owner shall use its best efforts to obtain any required consents to
disclose the same to CBL/OP and will notify CBL/OP if there are any such
documents or materials for which it has not been


                                       13


able to obtain such consent.
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.2 to the contrary, Property Owner
shall have no obligation to make available to CBL/OP and CBL/OP's authorized
agents, consultants, contractors and representatives, and CBL/OP and CBL/OP's
authorized agents and representatives shall have no right to inspect or make
copies of, any of the Excluded Documents.

4.2.3 Proprietary Information. CBL/OP acknowledges and agrees that the Property
Records are proprietary and confidential in nature and have been or will be made
available to CBL/OP solely to assist CBL/OP in determining the feasibility of
purchasing the Property. CBL/OP agrees, prior to the Closing, not to disclose
the Property Records, any of the CBL/OP's Information, or any analyses,
compilations, studies or other documents or records prepared by or on behalf of
CBL/OP from any of the Property Records or the CBL/OP's Information
(collectively, the "Proprietary Information") to any party outside of CBL/OP's
organization except (a) as necessary to CBL/OP's agents, consultants,
contractors, representatives, attorneys, accountants, lenders, prospective
lenders, investors and/or prospective investors (collectively, the "Permitted
Outside Parties"), or (b) as may be required by any law applicable to CBL/OP.
CBL/OP further agrees to notify all Permitted Outside Parties that, prior to the
Closing, the Proprietary Information is to be kept confidential and not
disclosed to third parties. In permitting CBL/OP and the Permitted Outside
Parties to review the Property Records to assist CBL/OP, Property Owner has not
waived any privilege or claim of confidentiality with respect thereto, and no
third party benefits or relationships of any kind, either expressed or implied,
have been offered, intended or created by Property Owner and any such claims are
expressly rejected by Property Owner and waived by CBL/OP.

4.2.4 Return of Property Records. At such time as this Agreement is terminated
for any reason, CBL/OP shall return to Property Owner the copies of all of the
Property Records delivered to CBL/OP by or on behalf of Property Owner, and
CBL/OP shall destroy, and instruct all Permitted Outside Parties in writing to
destroy, any and all copies CBL/OP or the Permitted Outside Parties have made of
the Property Records.

4.2.5 No Representation or Warranty By Property Owner. CBL/OP acknowledges that
many of the Property Records were prepared by third parties other than Property
Owner. CBL/OP further acknowledges and agrees that, except as expressly set
forth in this Agreement, (a) neither Property Owner nor any of Property Owner's
respective agents, advisors, employees or contractors has made any warranty or
representation regarding the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Property
Records, (b) Property Owner expressly disclaims any such representation or
warranty, and (c) Property Owner has not undertaken any independent
investigation as to the truth, accuracy or completeness of the Property Records
and Property Owner is providing the Property Records or making the Property
Records available to CBL/OP solely as an accommodation to CBL/OP.

4.2.6 Remedies. In addition to any other remedies available to Property Owner
and Contributors, Property Owner and Contributors shall have the right to seek
equitable relief (including specific performance and injunctive relief) against
CBL/OP and CBL/OP's agents, consultants, contractors and representatives to
enforce the provisions of Section 4.2.3 and Section 4.2.4.

                                       14


4.3   Title.

4.3.1 Title Documents. Prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
CBL/OP received copies of the following items (collectively, the "Title
Documents"): (a) that certain Title Commitment No1606000261776 issued effective
July 29, 2005 by Chicago Title Insurance Company, as agent for the Title Company
with respect to the Real Property (the "Title Commitment"); (b) all documents
referred to in the Schedule B exceptions shown on the Title Commitment; (c) that
certain Land Title Survey of the Real Property prepared by Farnsworth Group as
Project No. 105637, certified by Brian R. Myers, PLS No. 3032, on September 7,
2005 (the "ALTA Survey"); and (d) an update and/or modification and
recertification of the ALTA Survey which has been ordered by CBL/OP, at CBL/OP's
sole cost and expense(the "Updated Survey"). CBL/OP shall promptly request and
deliver to the Title Company the Updated Survey in sufficient time prior to the
Title Objection Deadline so that any title exception for discrepancies,
conflicts in boundary lines, shortages in area, encroachments, easements or
claims of easements and other matters which would be disclosed by a physical
inspection of the Real Property, the ALTA Survey or by the Updated Survey
(collectively, "Survey Exceptions") shall be addressed as Title Objections
pursuant to Section 4.3.2 below.

4.3.2 Review of Title. All matters shown in the Title Documents which are not
objected to by CBL/OP by delivery of written notice thereof ("CBL/OP's Title
Objection Notice") to Property Owner on or before the Title Objection Deadline
shall be conclusively deemed to be accepted by CBL/OP. If CBL/OP timely delivers
CBL/OP's Title Objection Notice to Property Owner prior to the Title Objection
Deadline specifying CBL/OP's objection to any title exception pertaining to the
Real Property shown in the Title Documents (each a "Title Objection" and
collectively the "Title Objections"), Property Owner may, but except for
Voluntary Title Encumbrances, shall not be obligated to, remove from the Title
Policy or insure against (by title endorsement from the Title Company or
otherwise) some or all of such Title Objections. If Property Owner is able and
willing to remove or insure against some or all of the Title Objections,
Property Owner shall notify CBL/OP in writing within 5 days after the Title
Objection Deadline ("Property Owner's Notice Period") of those Title Objections
which Property Owner intends to attempt to remove or insure against on or before
the Closing Date (said notice hereinafter called "Property Owner's Title
Notice"). Without the necessity of objection by CBL/OP, Property Owner shall
comply with all of the requirements set forth in Schedule C of the Title
Commitment. Except for Voluntary Title Encumbrances, Property Owner shall have
no obligation whatsoever to remove or insure against any Title Objections. If
Property Owner delivers Property Owner's Title Notice and thereafter Property
Owner is unable to remove or insure against any Title Objection as indicated in
Property Owner's Title Notice, Property Owner shall have no liability to CBL/OP
and CBL/OP's sole remedy in such event shall be to either waive such Title
Objections and proceed with the Closing or terminate this Agreement. If Property
Owner does not deliver Property Owner's Title Notice to CBL/OP within Property
Owner's Notice Period, Property Owner shall be deemed to have notified CBL/OP
that Property Owner is unable or unwilling to remove or insure against the Title
Objections. If Property Owner notifies or is deemed to have notified CBL/OP that
Property Owner is unable or unwilling to remove or insure against any particular
Title Objection, CBL/OP shall be deemed to have waived those Title Objections
which Property Owner is unable or unwilling to remove or insure against unless
on or before the later to occur of (i) the Final Approval Date or (ii) 5 days
following receipt of the Property Owner's Title Notice (or 5 days following the
last day of the


                                       15


Property Owner's Notice Period if the Property Owner does not
give a Property Owner's Title Notice), CBL/OP delivers to Property Owner and
Escrow Holder written notice terminating this Agreement. If CBL/OP so elects to
terminate this Agreement by written notice to Property Owner and Escrow Holder
as provided in the preceding sentence, CBL/OP shall be entitled to a return of
the Letter of Credit or the Deposit, as applicable, and neither party shall have
any further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except for those
obligations of CBL/OP under this Agreement which expressly survive the
termination of this Agreement ("CBL/OP's Surviving Obligations").

4.3.3 Additional Title Objections. CBL/OP shall have the right to object to any
new title exceptions (other than Permitted Exceptions as defined in Section
4.3.7 below) first raised by the Title Company in any modification, update,
recertification or amendment to the Title Commitment which is issued after the
Effective Date of this Agreement by giving written notice ("CBL/OP's Additional
Title Objection Notice") to Property Owner within 5 days after CBL/OP's receipt
of any such modification, update, recertification or amendment, but in any event
no later than the Closing Date. If CBL/OP timely delivers CBL/OP's Additional
Title Objection Notice to Property Owner specifying CBL/OP's objection to any
new title exception first raised in a modification, update, recertification or
amendment to the Title Commitment which is issued after the Effective Date of
this Agreement (each an "Additional Title Objection" and collectively the
"Additional Title Objections"), Property Owner may, but except for Voluntary
Title Encumbrances, shall not be obligated to attempt to remove from the Title
Commitment or otherwise insure (at Property Owner's expense) against some or all
of such Additional Title Objections set forth in any CBL/OP's Additional Title
Objection Notice. If Property Owner does not notify CBL/OP in writing within 5
days after Property Owner's receipt of CBL/OP's Additional Title Objection
Notice (but in any event prior to the Closing Date) that Property Owner is
willing to so remove or otherwise insure against any Additional Title
Objections, Property Owner shall be deemed to have notified CBL/OP that Property
Owner is unable or unwilling to remove or otherwise insure against such
Additional Title Objections. If Property Owner does notify CBL/OP that Property
Owner is willing to remove or otherwise insure against any Additional Title
Objections and thereafter Property Owner is unable to remove or otherwise insure
against any Additional Title Objections as indicated in Property Owner's notice,
Property Owner shall have no liability to CBL/OP and CBL/OP's sole remedy in
such event shall be to either waive such Additional Title Objection and proceed
with the Closing or terminate this Agreement. If Property Owner notifies or is
deemed to have notified CBL/OP that Property Owner is unable or unwilling to
remove or insure against any particular Additional Title Objection, CBL/OP shall
be entitled to terminate this Agreement by delivering within 10 days after the
CBL/OP's Additional Title Objection Notice written notice to Property Owner and
Escrow Holder terminating this Agreement. CBL/OP's failure to deliver such
written notice electing to terminate this Agreement to Property Owner and Escrow
Holder within such 10 day period shall be deemed CBL/OP's waiver of the
particular Additional Title Objection which Property Owner is unable or
unwilling to remove from the Title Policy or otherwise insure against. If this
Agreement is terminated on or before the Closing Date by reason of an Additional
Title Objection, the Letter of Credit or the Deposit, as applicable, shall be
returned to CBL/OP (including all interest which has accrued thereon while the
Deposit was held by Escrow Holder, but not any interest which has accrued
thereon while held by Property Owner) and neither party shall have any further
rights or obligations under this Agreement, except for the CBL/OP's Surviving
Obligations. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if CBL/OP's right


                                       16


to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section
4.3.3 has not expired prior thereto, it shall expire upon the Closing Date. If
CBL/OP is first notified of any new title exception (other than Permitted
Exceptions) less than 15 days prior to the Closing Date, the Closing shall be
extended until 5 days after the disposition of such new title exception is
determined pursuant to this Section 4.3.3.

4.3.4 Voluntary Title Encumbrances. As used herein "Voluntary Title
Encumbrances" means liens or encumbrances against the Property that are created
by Property Owner or which result from Property Owner's failure to pay for an
obligation of Property Owner after the Effective Date and that can be removed or
insured against solely by the payment of a liquidated sum of money; provided,
however, that the term "Voluntary Title Encumbrances" as used in this Agreement
shall not include the following: (a) any Permitted Exceptions; (b) any action
taken or matter of title created by any tenants or Anchor Stores pursuant to the
terms and provisions of the Tenant Leases or the Operating Agreement; (c) Tenant
Leases or any liens or encumbrances against the Property created pursuant to a
Tenant Lease by the Tenant thereunder; (d) any liens or encumbrances against the
Property that are approved by CBL/OP or deemed approved by CBL/OP in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the
Closing Date Debt; or (e) any liens or encumbrances against the Property which,
pursuant to the Operating Agreement, a Tenant Lease or otherwise, are to be
discharged by any Anchor Store, a Tenant or any other occupant of the Real
Property. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 4.3.2 or
Section 4.3.3 above, Property Owner shall remove from the Title Policy or
otherwise insure against all Voluntary Title Encumbrances on or before the
Closing. If from time to time prior to the Closing, either Property Owner or
CBL/OP shall become aware of any Voluntary Title Encumbrances, then Property
Owner or CBL/OP shall promptly notify the other party thereof, which notice
shall describe in reasonable detail the Voluntary Title Encumbrance(s) at issue
and Property Owner shall remove from the Title Policy or otherwise insure
against all such Voluntary Title Encumbrance(s) on or prior to Closing.

4.3.5 Use of Total Consideration to Discharge Liens. At the Closing, Property
Owner may, at Property Owner's/Contributors' option, use the proceeds of the
Total Consideration to discharge any monetary lien or encumbrance which Property
Owner elects to pay or discharge; provided, however, the preceding shall not be
construed as obligating Property Owner to satisfy any lien or encumbrance on the
Property other than Voluntary Title Encumbrances. Any lien or encumbrance or
apparent lien or encumbrance appearing of record against the Property which can
be discharged by the payment of money shall not be an objection to title if
Property Owner, at Property Owner's sole option, shall at the Closing cause to
be delivered either (a) a duly executed and acknowledged satisfaction along with
the filing fee, or (b) a payoff letter or demand and the appropriate funds to
satisfy the lien or encumbrance.

4.3.6 Title Policy. CBL/OP's obligation to consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement shall be subject to and conditioned upon the
Title Company's willingness to issue, upon the condition of the payment of the
Title Company's premium and the delivery of the documents referred to in Section
5.6 below, an ALTA Extended Coverage Owner's Policy of Title Insurance (referred
to herein as the "Title Policy"), insuring the Company in the amount of the
Total Consideration plus the Closing Date Debt that fee title to the Real
Property is vested in the Company as of the Closing, subject only to the title
policy form conditions, exclusions from coverage and exceptions, and the
Permitted Exceptions.


                                       17


Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, the
issuance of ALTA Extended Coverage and any title endorsements as part of the
Title Policy shall not be a condition precedent to the Closing unless (a) CBL/OP
has delivered to the Title Company prior to the Closing Date, any necessary
modification, update or recertification of the ALTA Survey in current insurable
form and otherwise satisfactory to the Title Company, (b) the Title Company
confirms in writing to CBL/OP and Property Owner prior to the Title Objection
Deadline the Title Company's willingness to issue ALTA Extended Coverage and
those title endorsements which have been requested by CBL/OP prior to the Title
Objection Deadline, and (c) CBL/OP pays for all costs of such ALTA Extended
Coverage in excess of ALTA Standard Coverage and the costs of any such title
endorsements requested by CBL/OP (other than any endorsements Property Owner has
agreed to cause to be issued pursuant to a Property Owner's Title Notice),
provided that in any event issuance of a "Fairway" endorsement (with respect to
the transfer of the LLC Interests to CBL/OP) and a non-imputation endorsement
(with respect to any knowledge that might be imputed to the Company through
Property Owner or any Contributor) as part of the Title Policy shall be
conditions precedent to the Closing for the benefit of CBL/OP. If, prior to the
Title Objection Deadline, CBL/OP has not delivered any necessary modification,
update or recertification of the ALTA Survey in current insurable form
satisfactory to the Title Company and the Title Company has not confirmed in
writing to CBL/OP and Property Owner prior to the Title Objection Deadline the
Title Company's willingness to issue ALTA Extended Coverage and those title
endorsements requested by CBL/OP, then the condition in this Section 4.3.6 shall
be the Title Company's willingness to issue an ALTA Standard Coverage Owner's
Policy of Title Insurance (with only those endorsements the Title Company has
affirmatively agreed in writing prior to the Title Objection Deadline to issue)
and all references in this Agreement to the "Title Policy" shall mean and refer
to such ALTA Standard Coverage Owner's Policy of Title Insurance rather than an
ALTA Extended Coverage Owner's Policy of Title Insurance. In the event of any
failure of the condition in this Section 4.3.6, CBL/OP shall have the right to
terminate this Agreement by delivering written notice thereof to Property Owner
and Escrow Holder no later than the Closing Date, and the failure by CBL/OP to
timely deliver such notice of termination shall be deemed CBL/OP's waiver of
such condition. If such termination notice is provided, Property Owner shall
nonetheless have a period of 10 days after receipt of such notice to satisfy
such condition (and the Closing Date shall be accordingly extended, if
applicable), and if such condition is remedied within such 10 day period, the
Closing shall be consummated in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement; provided, however, that in no event shall such cure period extend
beyond the expiration of any commitment for the Closing Date Debt or expiration
date of any rate lock agreement for the Closing Date Debt (whichever is
earlier), as such dates may be extended by Property Owner at its sole cost and
expense, unless Property Owner borrows the Closing Date Debt prior to the
applicable expiration dates. In the event of any such termination, the Letter of
Credit or the Deposit, as applicable, shall be returned to CBL/OP and neither
party shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except
for the CBL/OP's Surviving Obligations. The Title Company's willingness at

CBL/OP's obligations and not a covenant of Property Owner.

Exceptions" shall mean (a) all matters disclosed in the Title Documents and to
which CBL/OP does not raise a Title Objection prior to the Title Objection

prospective tenant, and disclosed in writing to CBL/OP at least 5 days prior to
the Closing Date, with whom Property Owner and/or Property Owner's Property
Manager had been negotiating prior to the termination of the Property Management
Agreement (the "Tenant Prospect Commission Obligations"). Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, Property Owner's cancellation of any
Service Contract (other than the Property Management Agreement with Property
Owner's Property Manager or any existing leasing listing agreement entered into
by Property Owner for the Real Property) shall not be a condition to Closing or
CBL/OP's obligations hereunder. At the Closing, Property Owner shall terminate
all Service Contracts other than those identified on Exhibit J attached hereto.
CBL/OP acknowledges that, notwithstanding the foregoing, Property Owner shall
have no obligation to terminate and the Company shall assume at Closing the

Section 1.6 above. Upon receipt of this Agreement executed by the parties,
Escrow Agent shall (a) execute and date the Joinder by


                                       21


Escrow Agent attached
hereto solely in order to evidence Escrow Agent's agreement to act as Escrow
Agent in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement, (b)
immediately notify Property Owner and CBL/OP in writing by facsimile of the date
Escrow Agent has executed the attached Joinder by Escrow Agent and (c)
immediately deliver to Property Owner and CBL/OP by overnight courier ink-signed
originals of this Agreement fully executed in counterpart by Property Owner,
Contributors, CBL/OP and Escrow Agent.

5.1.2 Escrow Instructions. This Agreement, together with such supplementary or

pre-printed escrow instructions but only to the extent such standard or
pre-printed escrow instructions are consistent with this Agreement (including
Escrow Agent's duties contained herein) and are reasonably acceptable to
Property Owner, Contributors and CBL/OP. Any such additional or supplementary
instructions and/or any pre-printed or standard instructions shall not supersede
or conflict with this Agreement, and any such conflict shall be governed by the
terms of this Agreement.

5.1.3 Closing. As used in this Agreement, the "Closing" shall mean the
consummation of the contribution of the LLC Interests and the other transactions
contemplated in this Agreement, as evidenced by the deliveries by Contributors
of the documents and other items set forth in Section 5.4 below and by the
deliveries by CBL/OP of the documents, funds and other items set forth in
Section 5.6 below. Each party shall timely deposit with Escrow Agent the funds,
documents and supplementary written escrow instructions required by this
Agreement in order to consummate the Closing of the sale and transfer of the
Property in accordance with this Agreement.

5.1.4 Closing Date. The Closing shall occur through Escrow on the Closing Date.
Contributors and CBL/OP acknowledge and agree that time is expressly of the
essence with respect to the Closing Date specified in Section 1.5, and except as
otherwise provided in Sections 4.3.6 and Section 10.2, the failure of either
party to timely perform such party's obligations by such Closing Date shall
constitute a material breach of this Agreement.

5.2 Conditions Precedent to the Closing for the Benefit of CBL/OP. The Closing
and CBL/OP's obligation to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Agreement are subject to the timely satisfaction or written waiver of the
following conditions precedent for CBL/OP's benefit set forth below in this
Section 5.2. The conditions precedent set forth below in Section 5.2.3 through
Section 5.2.12 are referred to as the "CBL/OP Closing Conditions." The CBL/OP

5.2.3 Property Owner's and Contributors' Deliveries. On or before the Closing
Date, Property Owner and/or Contributors shall have delivered to Escrow Agent
the documents described in Section 5.4 below.

5.2.4 Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties of
Property Owner and Contributors contained in Section 7.1 of this Agreement shall
be true and correct in all material respects as of the date made and as of the
Closing Date with the same effect as if those representations and warranties
were made at and as of the Closing Date and Contributors (or the Contributor
Representative identified in Section 13.22 below, on behalf of the Contributors)
shall have delivered to CBL/OP a certificate, dated as of the Closing Date,
confirming (without material exception or qualification) that all of the
representations and warranties of Property Owner and Contributors contained in
this Agreement, are true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing
Date as if made on and as of the Closing Date, and certifying an updated Lease
Schedule/Rent Roll in the same form as delivered herewith (the "Contributors
Closing Certificate"). If the Contributors Closing Certificate shall contain any
material exception or qualification, then this condition shall not be deemed
satisfied to such effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is agreed that: (a)
any changes to the Lease Schedule/Rent Roll due to any or all of the following
shall not constitute material exceptions or qualifications for the purposes of
this condition: (i) any new Tenant Leases or amendments, modifications,
supplements, or extensions of existing Tenant Leases entered into by Property
Owner as permitted under Section 8.4 below, (ii) terminations of any existing
Tenant Leases either as entered into or effected by Property Owner as permitted
under Section 8.4 below or which do not require the consent or agreement of the
Property Owner, or (iii) defaults of any Tenants under any Tenant Leases; and
(b) any change in the physical condition of the Real Property after the Final
Approval Date shall not constitute material exceptions or qualifications for the
purposes of this condition unless such change in physical condition (1) would
cost CBL/OP in excess of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) to repair, or (2) is
due to the failure of Property Owner to perform any express covenant set forth
in this Agreement. Nothing set forth in this Section shall be deemed to modify
the provisions of Article XI.

5.2.5 Covenants. As of the Closing Date, Property Owner and Contributors shall
have performed all material covenants and/or agreements to be performed by

August 16, 2005, from (i) all of the Anchor Stores ("REA Estoppel Certificates")
and (ii) from a sufficient number of non-Anchor Tenants of the Real Property
(the "Tenant Estoppel Certificates") so that Tenant Estoppel Certificates shall
be received with respect to not less than 80% of the rentable area of the
Improvements covered by Tenant Leases of non-Anchor Tenants. Property Owner
shall submit REA Estoppel Certificates to the Anchor Stores and the Tenant
Estoppel Certificates to the Tenants for execution and use commercially
reasonable efforts (as hereinafter described in this Section 5.2.6 below) to
obtain REA Estoppel Certificates in form approved by CBL/OP, and Tenant Estoppel
Certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto; provided,
however, that if the applicable Tenant Lease provides for a Tenant Estoppel
Certificate in a form


                                       23


which is different from that attached as Exhibit B hereto
or otherwise limits the information required to be certified by the applicable
Tenant, then a Tenant Estoppel Certificate in substantially the form provided
for in an applicable Tenant Lease, or setting forth only such other information
as is required of the applicable Tenant pursuant to the applicable Tenant Lease,
shall be deemed in acceptable form (subject to the penultimate sentence of this
Section 5.2.6), and an REA Estoppel shall be deemed in acceptable form (subject
to the final sentence of this Section 5.2.6) if an REA Estoppel Certificate
covers all matters as are required under the Operating Agreement, or if no such
matters are required, if an REA Estoppel Certificate is in the form customarily
used by the Anchor Store. Property Owner's sole obligation hereunder shall be to
utilize commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Tenant Estoppel
Certificates and REA Estoppel Certificates (such commercially reasonable efforts
obligation not including any obligation to institute legal proceedings, waive
any rights, or to grant any concessions or expend any monies therefor). Any
executed Tenant Estoppel Certificate received from a Tenant which has been
modified by the Tenant to allege a material default by Property Owner as
landlord under such Tenant's Tenant Lease or facts which are materially
inconsistent with the information set forth in the Tenant Estoppel Certificate
delivered to such Tenant shall not, at CBL/OP's election, be applied toward the
eighty percent (80%) requirement set forth above. Any executed REA Estoppel
Certificate which alleges a material default by Property Owner under the
Operating Agreement or facts which are materially inconsistent with the
information set forth in the REA Estoppel Certificate delivered to such Anchor
Store shall not, at CBL/OP's election, satisfy this closing condition.

of the contribution of the LLC Interests to CBL/OP.

5.2.10 Company LLC Agreement. CBL/OP and Property Owner shall have agreed
upon the form and content of the Company's limited liability company agreement
(including any special purpose provisions thereof) and such agreed upon form
shall be entered into by the members of the Company upon formation of the

Interests to CBL/OP without CBL/OP's prior written consent.

5.2.11 Closing Date Debt. The Company shall have refinanced its existing
mortgage with the Closing Date Debt which shall comply with the requirements set
forth in Section 5.7 below.

5.2.12 Simultaneous Closings Under Other Mall Contracts. The transactions

                                       24


Mall Contracts shall fail to occur by reason of the
default of CBL/OP, and in such case, the provisions of Section 2.3.2 shall
apply.

      CBL/OP shall not willfully or in bad faith act or willfully or in bad
faith fail to act for the purpose of permitting any CBL/OP Closing Condition to
fail. In the event any of the foregoing CBL/OP Closing Conditions are not
satisfied (or otherwise waived by CBL/OP) on the Closing Date for any reason
other than a default by Property Owner or Contributors or CBL/OP hereunder, and
such failure of condition is not remedied within 10 days after notice to
Property Owner of such failure of condition (provided, however, that in no event
shall such cure period extend beyond the expiration of any commitment for the
Closing Date Debt or expiration date of any rate lock agreement for the Closing
Date Debt (whichever is earlier), as such dates may be extended by Property
Owner at its sole cost and expense, unless Property Owner borrows the Closing
Date Debt prior to the applicable expiration dates), this Agreement shall
terminate, the Letter of Credit or the Deposit, as applicable, shall be returned
to CBL/OP and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations under
this Agreement, except for the CBL/OP's Surviving Obligations; in the event the
failure of any CBL/OP Closing Condition is also a default by Property Owner or
Contributors, the provisions of Section 10.2 shall govern; and in the event the
failure of any CBL/OP Closing Condition is also a default by CBL/OP, the
provisions of Section 10.1 shall govern. CBL/OP shall at all times prior to the
termination of this Agreement have the right to waive any of the CBL/OP Closing
Conditions. Except for those deemed waivers due to CBL/OP's failure to timely
deliver a notice of objection or termination, any such waiver shall be in
writing. Furthermore, the election by CBL/OP to proceed with the Closing and the
disbursement of the Total Consideration shall be deemed CBL/OP's waiver of any
CBL/OP Closing Condition to the extent any such CBL/OP Closing Condition has not
been previously satisfied or waived.

5.3 Conditions Precedent to the Closing for the Benefit of Contributors. The
Closing and Contributors' obligations with respect to the transaction

5.3.5 Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties of
CBL/OP contained in Section 7.6 of this Agreement shall be true and correct in
all material respects as of the date made and as of the Closing Date with the
same effect as if those representations and warranties were made at and as of
the Closing Date and CBL/OP shall have delivered to Contributors a certificate,
dated as of the Closing Date, confirming (without material exception or
qualification) that all of the representations and warranties of CBL/OP
contained in this Agreement, are true and correct in all material respects as of
the Closing Date as if made on and as of the Closing Date (the "CBL/OP Closing
Certificate"). If the CBL/OP Closing Certificate shall contain any material
exception or qualification, then this condition shall not be deemed satisfied to

the form and content of the Company's limited liability company agreement

contemplated under the Other Mall Contracts shall close simultaneously with the
Closing hereunder, except this shall not be a Contributor Closing Condition if
the closing under the Other Mall Contracts shall fail to occur by reason of the
default of Property Owner or Contributors, and in such case, the provisions of
Section 2.3.2 shall apply.

Neither Property Owner nor the Contributors shall willfully or in bad faith act
or willfully or in bad faith fail to act for the purpose of permitting any
Contributor Condition Precedent to fail. In the event any of the foregoing
Contributor Conditions Precedent are not satisfied (or otherwise waived by
Contributors) by the respective dates designated above in this Section 5.3 for
any reason other than a default by CBL/OP or Property Owner or Contributors
hereunder, this Agreement shall terminate, the Letter of Credit or the Deposit,
as applicable, shall be returned to CBL/OP and neither party shall have any
further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except for the CBL/OP's
Surviving Obligations; in the event the failure of any CBL/OP Closing Condition
is also a default by Property Owner or Contributors, the provisions of Section
10.2 shall govern; and in the event the failure of any CBL/OP Closing Condition
is also a default by CBL/OP, the provisions of Section 10.1 shall govern.
Contributors shall at all times prior to the termination of this Agreement have
the right to waive any of the Contributor Conditions Precedent. Any such waiver
shall be in writing; provided, however, the election by Contributors to proceed
with the Closing and the delivery of the LLC Interests shall be deemed Property
Owner's and Contributors' waiver of any Contributor Condition Precedent to the
extent any such Contributor Condition Precedent has not been previously
satisfied or waived.

                                  ARTICLE VI
                                   PRORATIONS

6.1 General. The following items set forth below in this Article VI are to be
adjusted and prorated between Contributors and CBL/OP as of 12:01 a.m. on the
Closing Date (the "Adjustment Time"). All prorations shall be calculated as if
the Property had been sold by Contributors to CBL/OP on the Closing Date such
that CBL/OP shall be deemed to own the Property, and therefore entitled to any
revenues and responsible for any expenses, for the entire day upon which the
Closing occurs). Such adjustments and prorations shall be calculated on the
actual days of the applicable month and all annual prorations shall be based
upon a 365 day year. The net amount resulting from the prorations and
adjustments provided for in this Article VI (along with the allocation of
Closing costs in accordance with Section 5.8 above) shall be added to (if such
net amount is in Contributors' favor) or deducted from (if such net amount is in
CBL/OP's favor) the amount of the Total Consideration.

6.2 Real Estate Taxes. Real estate or ad valorem real property taxes,
assessments (including installments of business improvement district charges and
principal and interest installments due on any local improvement district liens,
if any) and personal property taxes with respect to the Property (collectively,
"Real Estate Taxes") shall be prorated based upon the latest available tax bill,
such that Contributors shall be responsible for all Real Estate Taxes levied
against the Property for the period prior to the Adjustment Time and CBL/OP
shall be responsible for all Real Estate Taxes levied against the Property for
the period from and after the Adjustment Time. If the latest available tax bill
is not the bill for the current tax year, then Real Estate Taxes shall be
prorated based upon the latest tax information then available (including
previous tax bills, current assessments and other information available from the
taxing authorities) and CBL/OP and Contributors shall re-prorate the Real Estate
Taxes following the Closing as soon as the current tax bill or other current
information becomes available. Any increase in Real Estate Taxes which is
assessed following the Closing arising out of the sale of the Real Property to
CBL/OP or a subsequent sale or change in ownership thereafter, and/or arising
out of any construction or improvements to the Real Property prior to or
following the Closing, shall be paid by CBL/OP when assessed. Refunds of Real
Estate Taxes for the Real Estate Tax year in which the Closing occurs, net of
the costs of pursuing any tax contest or protest proceedings and collecting such
refunds, shall be prorated in proportion to the respective shares of such Real
Estate Taxes borne by Contributors and CBL/OP hereunder. The rights of
Contributors and CBL/OP to their respective shares of any refund of Real Estate
Taxes shall be subject to the rights of the Tenants under the Tenant Leases in
regard to Overage Rents, and any portion of any refund to which any Tenant is
entitled shall be paid to CBL/OP (even if the refund pertains to a period prior
to Closing) and CBL/OP covenants to promptly refund (or, in CBL/OP's case,
credit) to the Tenants any refund of Real Estate Taxes due the Tenants.
Notwithstanding any statement herein to the contrary, the parties agree that
taxes shall be prorated on the basis that Property Owner/Contributors is/are
responsible for taxes and


                                       32


assessments relating to periods prior to the Closing
and CBL/OP is responsible for taxes and assessments relating to periods from the
Closing and thereafter, and the parties further agree that this tax proration
shall apply regardless of whether the taxing authority assesses taxes in
arrears, currently or prospectively.

6.3 Operating Expenses. As used herein, "Operating Expenses" means all fees and
charges for sewer, water, electricity, heat and air-conditioning service and
other utilities; common area maintenance charges; rental taxes, personal
property taxes, business occupational taxes and municipal taxes other than Real
Estate Taxes; landlord's contributions to merchant or project associations or to
promotional funds; periodic charges payable under Service Contracts assigned to
and assumed by CBL/OP; periodic fees payable under transferable licenses and
permits for the operation (as opposed to the construction) of the Property;
periodic charges under the Operating Agreement; and any other costs and expenses
with respect to the operation and maintenance of the Property. Subject to the
provisions of Section 6.4.3 below, Operating Expenses shall be prorated as of
the Adjustment Time such that Contributors shall be responsible for all
Operating Expenses attributable on an accrual basis to the period prior to the
Adjustment Time and CBL/OP shall be responsible for all Operating Expenses
attributable on an accrual basis to the period from and after the Adjustment
Time. If invoices or bills for any of such costs and expenses are unavailable on
or before the Closing Date, such costs and expenses shall be estimated and
prorated at Closing based upon the latest information available (including prior
bills and operating history) and a final and conclusive readjustment of any cost
and expense item shall be made upon receipt of the actual invoice or bill, but
in all events no later than 90 days following the Closing. CBL/OP shall take all
steps necessary to effectuate the transfer of all utilities to CBL/OP's name as
of the date of Closing, and where necessary, open a new account in CBL/OP's name
and post deposits with the utility companies. CBL/OP and Property Owner's
Property Manager shall cooperate to have all utility meters read by the
appropriate utility companies as of the date of Closing. If CBL/OP and Property
Owner's property Manager are unable to obtain final meter readings as of the
Closing Date from all applicable meters, such expenses shall be estimated at
Closing based upon the operating history of the Property subject to the final
adjustment in all events no later than 90 days following the Closing as provided
above in this Section 6.3. Contributors shall be entitled to recover any and all
deposits held by any utility companies as of the date of Closing, and if any
such deposits are not returned to Property Owner on or before the Closing Date
and are assigned to CBL/OP, such amounts shall be credited to Contributors'
account and increase the amount of funds payable by CBL/OP at Closing.

6.4   Rentals.

6.4.1 Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms
shall have the meanings set forth below in this Section 6.4.1:

(a) "Base Rents" means all fixed rents, base rents, minimum rents or basic
rentals payable in fixed installments for stated periods by Tenants under Tenant
Leases.

(b) "Overage Rents" means any additional rent, expense reimbursements, utility
charges, management charges, common area maintenance or "CAM" charges,
escalation rents, operating cost "pass-throughs," and "common area expenses"
payable by Tenants under Tenant Leases (whether based upon increases in
Operating Expenses, Real Estate Taxes,


                                       33


insurance costs or other operating
expenses or taxes or based upon increases in labor costs or cost of living or
porter's wages), together with any other additional rent payments based upon
Real Estate Taxes or Operating Expenses.

(c) "Percentage Rentals" means rents payable by a Tenant under a Tenant Lease
which are expressed as a fixed percentage or percentages of the gross receipts
or gross sales of the Tenant.

(d) "Rentals" means, collectively, all Base Rents, Overage Rents, Percentage
Rentals and other amounts paid or payable by Tenants under their respective
Tenant Leases in connection with their occupancy of the Property. "Rentals"
shall not include Tenant Security Deposits.

6.4.2 General. Contributors shall be entitled to all Rentals attributable to the
period prior to the Adjustment Time and CBL/OP shall be entitled to all Rentals
attributable to the period from and after the Adjustment Time. The amount of any
Rentals collected by Property Owner prior to the Adjustment Time and applicable
to the period from and after the Adjustment Time shall be credited to CBL/OP at
the Closing. Any Rentals (other than Delinquent Rentals to which Contributors
are entitled pursuant to Section 6.5 below) which are received by Property
Owner's Property Manager or the Contributor Representative subsequent to the
Adjustment Time shall be promptly delivered to CBL/OP. The provisions of this
Section 6.4.2 are subject to Section 6.4.3, Section 6.4.4 and Section 6.5 below.

6.4.3 Overage Rents. Overage Rents shall be separately prorated as of the
Adjustment Time in the manner provided in this Section 6.4.3. Such proration
shall be made on a Tenant Lease-by-Tenant Lease basis and shall be based upon
the total annual Overage Rents due under each Tenant Lease for the calendar year
or the appropriate fiscal year as applicable under such Tenant Lease. The actual
fiscal year for Overage Rents under each Tenant Lease during which the Closing
occurs is hereinafter referred to as the "Applicable Overage Rent Year."
Non-delinquent Overage Rent collections for the month in which Closing occurs
shall be prorated in the same manner as other Rents. Subject to the preceding
sentence, to the extent a Tenant makes advance monthly installments or other
interim payments on account of projected Overage Rents, Contributors shall
initially retain all such advance monthly installments or other interim payments
of projected Overage Rents received by Property Owner or Property Owner's
Property Manager on or prior to the Closing Date and CBL/OP shall initially
retain all such advance monthly installments or other interim payments of
projected Overage Rents received by CBL/OP following Closing. Upon the
expiration of the Applicable Overage Rent Year and the determination of the
actual Overage Rents due for the Applicable Overage Rent Year, CBL/OP and
Contributors shall prorate the Overage Rents for the Applicable Overage Rents
Year as follows: (a) Contributors shall be entitled to the portion of the total
annual Overage Rents due from each Tenant for the Applicable Overage Rent Year
equal to the product obtained by multiplying such total annual Overage Rents by
a fraction, the numerator of which fraction is the total amount of Operating
Expenses incurred by Property Owner and the Company which are to be reimbursed
by Tenants through Overage Rent for the portion of the Applicable Overage Rent
Year preceding the Adjustment Time and the denominator of which fraction is the
total amount of Operating Expenses incurred by Property Owner and the Company
which are to be reimbursed by Tenants through Overage Rent for the Applicable
Overage Rent Year; and


                                       34


(b) CBL/OP shall be entitled to the portion of the total
annual Overage Rents due from each Tenant for the Applicable Overage Rent Year
equal to the product obtained by multiplying such total annual Overage Rents by
a fraction, the numerator of which fraction is the total amount of Operating
Expenses incurred by the Company which are to be reimbursed by Tenants through
Overage Rent for the portion of the Applicable Overage Rent Year after the
Adjustment Time and the denominator of which fraction is the total amount of
Operating Expenses incurred by Property Owner and the Company which are to be
reimbursed by Tenants through Overage Rent for the Applicable Overage Rent Year.
To the extent Property Owner has collected in advance monthly installments or
other interim payments of projected Overage Rents from a Tenant for the
Applicable Overage Rent Year which are in excess of the amount of Overage Rents
for such Tenant to which Contributors is/are entitled hereunder, Contributors
shall, within 10 Business Days after the year-end adjustment of Overage Rents,
reimburse CBL/OP for any part of such excess and upon such reimbursement CBL/OP
shall be responsible for any refunds and reimbursements due to the Tenant. To
the extent Property Owner has collected in advance monthly installments or other
interim payments of projected Overage Rents from a Tenant for the Applicable
Overage Rent Year which are less than the amount of Overage Rents for such
Tenant to which Contributors are entitled hereunder, CBL/OP shall, to the extent
collected by CBL/OP, within 10 Business Days after the year-end adjustment of
Overage Rents, reimburse Contributors the amount of any such shortfall.

      Any Overage Rent dispute involving (A) a claim by a Tenant for
reimbursement or (B) disputing the amount of the expenses, and in the case of
either (A) or (B), relating to any period prior to Closing, shall be the
Contributors' responsibility as to any sums owed to such Tenant, and any sums
deemed due from such Tenant for such periods shall likewise be the
Contributors'. CBL/OP shall be responsible for such matters for periods from the
date of Closing and thereafter. CBL/OP shall be in control of all Overage Rent
disputes following the Closing but the parties agree to cooperate in any Overage
Rent dispute involving periods prior to the Closing and to provide information
and to assist each other in any litigation or other procedures that may ensue
with respect to such Overage Rent disputes. Any settlement of a CAM dispute for
periods prior to Closing shall require Contributors' prior approval.
Contributors shall be responsible for all court costs, legal fees (including
CBL/OP's attorney's fees and costs) and other costs in any such Overage Rent
dispute relating to periods prior to Closing, and CBL/OP shall be responsible
for all court costs, legal fees (including Contributors' attorney's fees and
costs) and other costs in any such Overage Rent dispute relating to periods from
the date of Closing and thereafter. In the case of a multi-year Overage Rent
dispute in which a portion of the period at issue relates to periods prior to
the Closing and a portion relates to periods following the Closing, Contributors
and CBL/OP shall each bear a pro rata share of the court costs, legal fees
(including CBL/OP's and Contributors' attorney's fees) and other costs based on
the period involved (i.e., in the case of a CAM dispute involving 3 years, 2
prior to Closing and 1 following Closing, Contributors shall be responsible for
2/3 of the referenced costs and CBL/OP shall be responsible for 1/3).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any multi-year Overage Rent
dispute relating to both periods prior to the Closing and periods after the
Closing, Contributors shall have the right to settle such dispute with respect
to periods prior to the Closing, and upon consummation of such settlement, if
CBL/OP does not settle such dispute with respect to periods after the Closing
simultaneously, Contributors shall have no obligation to bear any share of court
costs, legal fees or other costs pertaining to such dispute incurred after
consummation of such settlement.

                                       35


6.4.4 Percentage Rentals. Percentage Rentals payable by Tenants under Tenant
Leases shall be separately prorated as of the Adjustment Time between CBL/OP and
Contributors in the manner provided in this Section 6.4.4. Such proration shall
preliminarily be based on 105% of the Percentage Rentals received by Property
Owner for the year period preceding the Adjustment Time (the "Projected
Percentage Rentals"), with such amount being allocated in the following manner:
Contributors shall be entitled to an amount equal to the product obtained by
multiplying the Projected Percentage Rentals by a fraction, the numerator of
which is the number of days between January 1, 2005 and the day preceding the
Adjustment Time, and the denominator of which is 365, and CBL/OP shall be
entitled to the balance of the Projected Percentage Rentals (the "Preliminary
Percentage Rent Proration"). Subsequent to the Closing Date, the Preliminary
Percentage Rent Proration shall be adjusted in the following manner: the
proration of Percentage Rentals shall be made on a Tenant Lease-by-Tenant Lease
basis and shall be based upon the fiscal year set forth in each applicable
Tenant Lease for the determination of Percentage Rental. The actual fiscal year
for Percentage Rental during which the Closing occurs is hereinafter referred to
as the "Applicable Percentage Rental Fiscal Year." Upon the expiration of the
Applicable Percentage Rental Fiscal Year, CBL/OP and Contributors shall prorate
the total annual Percentage Rental due from a Tenant for such Tenant's
Applicable Percentage Rental Fiscal Year as follows: (a) Contributors shall be
entitled to the portion of the Percentage Rental paid by each Tenant equal to
the product obtained by multiplying the total annual Percentage Rental paid by
such Tenant by a fraction, the numerator of which fraction is the number of days
in the Applicable Percentage Rental Fiscal Year preceding the Adjustment Time
and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Applicable
Percentage Rental Fiscal Year; and (b) CBL/OP shall be entitled to the portion
of the Percentage Rental paid by each Tenant equal to the product obtained by
multiplying the total annual Percentage Rental paid by such Tenant by a
fraction, the numerator of which fraction is the total number of days in the
Applicable Percentage Rental Fiscal Year after the Adjustment Time and the
denominator of which is the number of days in the Applicable Percentage Rental
Fiscal Year. Any resulting adjustment shall be effected in conformance with
Section 6.9.

6.5 Delinquent Rentals. As used herein, "Delinquent Rentals" means Base Rents
which are due and payable prior to or on the day of the Closing but which have
not actually been collected by Property Owner as of the day of the Closing.
Contributors' account shall not be credited at the Closing for any Delinquent
Rentals but Contributors shall retain all right, title and interest to any
Delinquent Rentals and CBL/OP shall have no rights to any Delinquent Rentals.
From and after the Closing, Contributor Representative shall be entitled to
institute legal proceedings and otherwise attempt to collect any Delinquent
Rentals (but without seeking to evict the Tenant) and CBL/OP agrees, at the
expense of Contributors, to cooperate with Contributors in connection with such
collection efforts by Contributor Representative. Any Delinquent Rentals
received by CBL/OP subsequent to the Closing Date shall be first applied to
accrued Rents (whether current or that became delinquent following the Closing)
owing by the Tenant to CBL/OP, and the balance of Delinquent Rentals shall be
promptly remitted to Contributors.

6.6 Security Deposits. At the Closing, Contributors shall retain the amount of
any Security Deposits which are in cash form and CBL/OP shall receive a credit
toward the Total Consideration for such cash Security Deposits. To the extent
Property Owner is holding any Security Deposits in the form of a letter of
credit, marketable security or other form of non-cash


                                       36


instrument, then, prior to
the Closing, Property Owner shall deliver to the Escrow Agent the original
letter of credit or other instrument and, at Contributors' expense or the
expense of the applicable Tenant, Property Owner's assignment of the letter of
credit, marketable security or other form of non-cash instrument to the Company
and an undertaking by Property Owner, until such time as CBL/OP can reasonably
obtain a replacement naming the Company as the beneficiary thereof, to draw on
or redeem the letter of credit, marketable security or other form of non-cash
instrument which names Property Owner/Contributors as beneficiary or payee at

6.7 Anchor Store Payments. All amounts which are paid to Property Owner by the
Anchor Stores pursuant to the Operating Agreement (collectively, "Anchor Store
Payments") shall be separately prorated as of the Adjustment Time in the manner
provided in this Section 6.7. Such proration shall be made on an Anchor
Store-by-Anchor Store basis and based upon the total annual Anchor Store
Payments due under the Operating Agreement from such Anchor Store for the
calendar year or the appropriate fiscal year as applicable under the Operating
Agreement. The actual fiscal year for each Anchor Store for Anchor Store
Payments under the Operating Agreement during which the Closing occurs is
hereinafter referred to as the "Applicable Anchor Store Payment Year." To the
extent an Anchor Store makes advance monthly installments or other interim
payments on account of projected Anchor Store Payments, Property Owner shall
initially retain all such advance monthly installments or other interim payments
of projected Anchor Store Payments received by Property Owner prior to the
Closing and CBL/OP shall initially retain all such advance monthly installments
or other interim payments of projected Anchor Store Payments received by CBL/OP
following the Closing. Upon the expiration of the Applicable Anchor Store
Payment Year and the determination of the actual Anchor Store Payments due from
the Anchor Store for the Applicable Anchor Store Payment Year, CBL/OP and
Property Owner/Contributors shall prorate the Anchor Store Payments for the
Applicable Anchor Store Payment Year as follows: (a) With respect to any Anchor
Store Payments that are fixed in amount (i.e., payments which are not determined
by the amount expended by the Property Owner or the Company for Operating
Expenses), (1)Contributors shall be entitled to the portion of the total annual
Anchor Store Payments due from each Anchor Store for the Applicable Anchor Store
Payment Year equal to the product obtained by multiplying such total annual
Anchor Store Payments by a fraction, the numerator of which fraction is the
number of days in the Applicable Anchor Store Payment Year preceding the
Adjustment Time and the denominator of which fraction is the total number of
days in the Applicable Anchor Store Payment Year; and (2) CBL/OP shall be
entitled to the portion of the total annual Anchor Store Payments due from each
Anchor Store for the Applicable Anchor Store Payment Year equal to the product
obtained by multiplying such total annual Anchor Store Payments by a fraction,
the numerator of which fraction is the number of days in the Applicable Anchor
Store Payment Year after the Adjustment Time and the denominator of which
fraction is the total number of days in for the Applicable Anchor Store Payment
Year; and (b) with respect to any Anchor Store Payments that are variable in
amount (i.e., payments which are determined by the amount expended by the
Property Owner or the Company for Operating Expenses), (i) Contributors shall be
entitled to the portion of the total annual Anchor Store Payments due from each
Anchor Store for the Applicable Anchor Store Payment Year equal to the product
obtained by multiplying such total annual Anchor Store Payments due from such
Anchor Store by a fraction, the numerator of which fraction is the total amount
of Operating Expenses incurred by Property Owner and the Company which are to be
reimbursed by such Anchor Store through Anchor Store Payments for


                                       37


the portion of
the Applicable Anchor Store Payment Year preceding the Adjustment Time and the
denominator of which fraction is the total amount of Operating Expenses incurred
by Property Owner and the Company which are to be reimbursed by the Anchor
Stores through Anchor Store Payments for the Applicable Anchor Store Payment
Year; and (ii) CBL/OP shall be entitled to the portion of the total annual
Anchor Store Payments due from each Anchor Store for the Applicable Anchor Store
Payment Year equal to the product obtained by multiplying such total annual
Anchor Store Payments due from such Anchor Store by a fraction, the numerator of
which fraction is the total amount of Operating Expenses incurred by the Company
which are to be reimbursed by such Anchor Store through Anchor Store Payments
for the portion of the Applicable Anchor Store Payment Year after the Adjustment
Time and the denominator of which fraction is the total amount of Operating
Expenses incurred by Property Owner and the Company which are to be reimbursed
by the Anchor Stores through Anchor Store Payments for the Applicable Anchor
Store Payment Year. To the extent Property Owner has collected in advance
monthly installments or other interim payments of projected Anchor Store
Payments from an Anchor Store for the Applicable Anchor Store Payment Year which
are in excess of the amount of Anchor Store Payments from such Anchor Store to
which Contributors are entitled hereunder, Contributors shall, within 10
Business Days after the year-end adjustment of such Anchor Store Payments,
reimburse CBL/OP for any part of such excess and upon such reimbursement CBL/OP
shall be responsible for any refunds and reimbursements due to such Anchor
Store. To the extent Contributors have collected in advance monthly installments
or other interim payments of projected Anchor Store Payments from an Anchor
Store for the Applicable Anchor Store Payment Year which are less than the
amount of Anchor Store Payments from such Anchor Store to which Contributors are
entitled hereunder, CBL/OP shall, to the extent collected by CBL/OP, within 10
Business Days after the year-end adjustment of Anchor Store Payments, reimburse
Contributors the amount of any such shortfall.

6.8 Tenant Installation Expenses. As used herein, "Leasing Costs" means,
collectively, any and all fees, costs, expenses and charges of the landlord
arising out of or in connection with entering into any Tenant Lease, any new
Tenant Lease for space at the Property and any extensions, renewals or
expansions under any Tenant Lease, including (a) brokerage commissions and fees
to effect any such leasing transaction (including any fees and commissions owed
to Property Owner's Property Manager), (b) expenses ("Tenant Improvement Costs")
incurred for repairs, improvements, equipment, painting, decorating,
partitioning and other items to satisfy the Tenant's initial construction
requirements with regard to such leasing transaction (including any improvements
to the Property which are mandated pursuant to applicable building codes and
other applicable governmental regulations solely by reason of the tenant
improvements being made at the landlord's expense in connection with the leasing
transaction), (c) reasonable legal fees for services in connection with the
preparation of documents and other services rendered in connection with the
effectuation of the leasing transaction, and (d) if there are any Rental
concessions covering any period that the Tenant has the right to be in
possession of the demised space, the Rentals that would have accrued during the
period of such concession. With respect to the Pending Transactions (as defined
below) and other Tenant Lease transactions approved by CBL/OP pursuant to
Section 8.4, CBL/OP agrees that the commissions payable by CBL/OP shall be at
the following rates: $5.00 per square foot for new Tenant Leases; $2.50 per
square foot for Tenant Lease renewals; $1,000.00 for kiosk Tenant Leases. CBL/OP
acknowledges that the benefits of Tenant Leases which are executed after the
Effective Date of this Agreement and any amendments, modifications, supplements
or extensions to existing


                                       38


Tenant Leases which are executed after the Effective
Date of this Agreement as well as the benefits of any options under existing
Tenant Leases which are exercised after the Effective Date of this Agreement, as
well as the consummation of those leasing transactions ("Pending Transactions")
described on the attached Exhibit W (whether consummated before or after the
Effective Date) shall all primarily accrue to the benefit of CBL/OP. Except for
the Pending Transactions, Property Owner and/or Contributors shall be
responsible for only (i) those Leasing Costs which are due and payable in
connection with Tenant Leases which have been executed prior to the Effective
Date of this Agreement, (ii) those Leasing Costs which are due and payable in
connection with amendments, modifications, supplements or extensions to Tenant
Leases which have been executed prior to the Effective Date of this Agreement,
and (iii) those Leasing Costs which are due and payable in connection with
options under Tenant Leases which have been exercised prior to the Effective
Date of this Agreement. CBL/OP shall be responsible for (1) all Leasing Costs in
connection with the Pending Transactions and with any Tenant Leases which are
executed after the Effective Date of this Agreement (with CBL/OP's approval
pursuant to Section 8.4 below); (2) all Leasing Costs in connection with any
amendments, modifications, supplements or extensions of Tenant Leases which are
executed following the Effective Date of this Agreement (with CBL/OP's approval
pursuant to Section 8.4 below); and (3) all Leasing Costs as set forth in the
applicable Tenant Lease in connection with options under Tenant Leases which are
exercised after the Effective Date of this Agreement. Such Leasing Costs shall
be apportioned at Closing to reflect the foregoing responsibilities. CBL/OP
shall assume at Closing all tenant improvement construction contracts for tenant
improvement work which is in progress as of the Closing and, to the extent the
cost thereof is to be borne by the landlord under the applicable Tenant Lease,
upon the Closing, CBL/OP shall receive a credit toward payment of the Total
Consideration for any amounts due under such construction contracts assumed by
CBL/OP and any other Leasing Costs which are the responsibility of Property
Owner an/or Contributors pursuant to this Section 6.8. CBL/OP acknowledges that
tenant improvement and other work in connection with Tenant Leases is being
performed by third party contractors and nothing contained in this Section 6.8
shall be deemed or construed to constitute any representation or warranty by
Property Owner with respect to Leasing Costs, including the quality or
workmanship of any tenant improvements under construction or to be constructed
under existing Tenant Leases, and Property Owner hereby expressly disclaims any
such representation or warranty. Without limiting the foregoing, CBL/OP shall
look solely to the third party contractor to correct any defects or shortcomings
in materials or workmanship and nothing contained in this Section 6.8 shall make
Property Owner/Contributors responsible for any such defects or shortcomings in
any work performed in connection with Tenant Leases.

6.9 Adjustment Procedure. Not less than two Business Days prior to the Closing
Date, Contributor Representative and CBL/OP shall agree upon a schedule of the
allocation of costs and expenses to be made in accordance with Section 5.9 above
and the prorations to be made in accordance with this Article VI (the "Proration
and Expense Schedule"), which Proration and Expense Schedule shall be executed
by Contributor Representative and CBL/OP, become a schedule to the closing
statement described in Sections 5.4.7 and 5.6.4 (the "Closing Statement") and
utilized for purposes of making the adjustments to the Total Consideration at
Closing for closing costs and prorations. As soon as practicable following the
Closing (but in no event later than the first anniversary of the Closing, except
that with respect to Real Estate Taxes, in no event later than fifteen (15)
business days after receipt of the actual tax bill attributable for the calendar
year 2005), Contributors and CBL/OP shall reprorate the income and expenses set
forth


                                       39


in this Article VI based upon actual bills or invoices received after the
Closing (if original prorations were based upon estimates) and any other items
necessary to effectuate the intent of the parties that all income and expense
items be prorated as provided above in this Article VI. Any reprorated items
shall be promptly paid to the party entitled thereto. Any payment by the
Contributors to CBL/OP pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be in cash on
behalf of all Contributors, whether or not any Contributor elects to receive
K-SCUs rather than Cash Consideration. Any errors or omissions in computing
adjustments at the Closing shall be promptly corrected, provided that the party
seeking to correct such error or omission shall have notified the other party of
such error or omission no later than the first anniversary of the Closing. The
provisions of this Article VI shall survive the Closing.

6.10 Gift Certificates. At or prior to Closing, Property Owner shall terminate
the gift certificate program currently in effect with respect to the Shopping
Center ("Gift Certificate Program"). Gift certificates issued by Property Owner
or on Property Owner's account prior to Closing which are outstanding on the
Closing Date ("Outstanding Gift Certificates") shall be honored by the Company
after the Closing Date. At Closing, (i) Property Owner shall transfer and assign
to the Company any bank account or reserve established to cover the Outstanding
Gift Certificates, and (ii) to the extent such bank accounts or reserves are
insufficient to cover the Outstanding Gift Certificates, Contributors shall pay
CBL/OP at Closing the amount of such deficiency. Except for any termination fee
or damages payable in connection with the termination of the gift card
fulfillment contract (which termination fee and damages will be handled in the
manner descried in Section 4.7), Contributors shall indemnify and hold harmless
the Company and CBL/OP from any Losses that the Company or CBL/OP may incur as a
result of: (i) any claims, actions, suits or demands brought against the Company
or CBL/OP with respect to the Gift Certificate Program and/or the operations
thereunder (except to the extent the Company fails to honor the Outstanding Gift
Certificates after the Closing), (ii) the value of Outstanding Gift Certificates
exceeding, in the aggregate, the total amount of the bank accounts or reserves
assigned by Property Owner to the Company at the Closing plus the amount paid by
Contributors to CBL/OP at the Closing in accordance with clause (ii) above).
Such indemnity shall entail the provision of a defense by Contributors for
CBL/OP and/or the Company and payment of all attorneys fees and court costs
associated therewith; and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Agreement, shall not be subject to any limitations on liability or survival
set forth in this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 7.3, 10.5
and 10.6 below) or subject to the provisions of the Indemnity Escrow Agreement.
Contributors' obligations under this Section 6.10 shall survive Closing.

construction cost, projection, financial or marketing analysis given to CBL/OP
by Property Owner or reviewed by CBL/OP with respect to the Property; provided
that, in each case stated above, to the extent that Property Owner furnished or
made available any documents or materials to CBL/OP, Property Owner and
Contributors represent and warrant that, to Property Owner's knowledge, such
documents and materials are true and correct copies of those documents and
materials contained in Property Owner's files. Under no circumstances whatsoever
shall information possessed by or known to any person or entity other than
Property Owner (including Property Owner's consultants, attorneys, agents and
advisors or their respective employees or representatives) be imputed or
attributed to Property Owner.

                                       46


7.5 CBL/OP's Knowledge. For purposes of this Agreement, whenever the phrase "to
the knowledge of CBL/OP" or "CBL/OP has actual knowledge" or words of similar
import are used, they shall be deemed to refer to the present actual (as opposed
to constructive or imputed) knowledge of Stephen Lebovitz, Keith Honnold and/or
Jay Wiseman without any investigation or inquiry whatsoever by said individual.
Property Owner and Contributors acknowledge that the individual named above is
named solely for the purpose of defining and narrowing the scope of CBL/OP's
knowledge and not for the purpose of imposing any liability on or creating any
duties running from such individual to Property Owner and/or Contributors.
Property Owner and Contributors covenant that they will bring no action of any
kind against such individual or any officer, director, member, partner,
shareholder, agent, representative, or advisor of CBL/OP arising out of the
representations and warranties made by CBL/OP in this Agreement. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, neither Property Owner nor
Contributors shall have any liability, obligation or responsibility of any kind
to CBL/OP or any other CBL/OP Party with respect to any representation or
warranty contained in Section 7.1 above if, prior to the Closing, CBL/OP has
actual knowledge that such representation or warranty is untrue or incorrect, or
to the extent that any Tenant Estoppel Certificate or REA Estoppel Certificate
received by CBL/OP prior to Closing discloses information which is inconsistent
with such representations and warranties.

7.6 Representations and Warranties of CBL/OP. CBL/OP represents and warrants to
Contributors that upon approval of CBL/REIT's Board of Directors as described in
Section 13.2 hereof, the following matters are true and correct as of the

bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium and other principles relating to or limiting
the right of contracting parties generally).

7.6.3 Requisite Action. All requisite action (corporate, trust, partnership or
otherwise) has been taken by CBL/OP in connection with entering into this
Agreement and the instruments referenced herein and by the Closing all such
necessary action will have been taken to authorize the consummation of the

judicial or administrative body, governmental authority or other party shall be
required for CBL/OP to consummate the transaction contemplated by this
Agreement.

                                       47


                                  ARTICLE VIII
                               OPERATING COVENANTS

      Property Owner and Contributors hereby agree to the following covenants:

8.1 Insurance. Until the Closing, Property Owner shall keep the Property insured
against fire, vandalism and other loss, damage and destruction with the same
coverage, policy limits and deductible amounts as are currently maintained by
Property Owner.

8.2 Operation of Property. Until the Closing, Property Owner shall operate the
Property in the manner as Property Owner has previously done and Property Owner
shall maintain and repair the Property through the Closing in a manner
consistent with the manner in which Property Owner maintained and repaired the
Property prior to the date of this Agreement, subject to the limitations on
Property Owner's obligation to pay costs of repair and maintenance as set forth
in Section 8.3 below.

8.3 Capital Improvements. Subject to Property Owner's obligations under Section
8.2 above, from and after the Effective Date until the Closing, Property Owner
shall not undertake any capital improvements or material alterations or
renovations to the Real Property (including any which are recommended in any of
the Property Records delivered or made available to CBL/OP or in any of the
CBL/OP's Information), except as may be required under Tenant Leases, the
Operating Agreement or governmental regulations, without the prior written
consent of CBL/OP. To the extent Property Owner is required (whether pursuant to
Section 8.2, or under Tenant Leases, the Operating Agreement or governmental
regulations) or Property Owner receives CBL/OP's consent, pursuant to the
foregoing sentence, to undertake any capital improvements or material
alterations to the Real Property, Property Owner shall not be required to pay
for capital improvements (excluding Tenant Improvement Costs, which shall be
borne by the parties as provided in Section 6.8 above, and shall not be subject
to the limitations in this Section 8.3) or maintenance and repair expenses in
excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). If the aggregate amount
incurred by Property Owner for capital improvements (excluding Tenant
Improvement Costs) under this Section 8.3 and maintenance and repair expenses
under the Section 8.2 above, exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000),
provided the Closing occurs, CBL/OP shall reimburse Property Owner at Closing
for the amount so expended in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000);
provided, further, that if the total reimbursement required of CBL/OP pursuant
to this provision shall exceed Nine Hundred Thousand Dollars ($900,000), CBL/OP
shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Property
Owner, in which event the Letter of Credit or the Deposit, as applicable, shall
be returned to CBL/OP.

8.4 Leasing. From and after the Effective Date, Property Owner shall not enter
into any new Tenant Leases or amend, modify, supplement, terminate or extend the
existing Tenant Leases without the prior written consent of CBL/OP. CBL/OP shall
have 5 Business Days following CBL/OP's receipt of any such draft of a proposed
new Tenant Lease or proposed amendment, modification, supplement, termination or
extension of a Tenant Lease to review and approve such draft, which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned with respect to the
Pending Transactions (subject to clause (c) below), and which approval shall be
in CBL/OP's sole discretion in all other cases (except as provided in the last
sentence of this


                                       48


Section 8.4). The failure of CBL/OP to notify Property Owner in
writing within 5 Business Days of CBL/OP's disapproval of any draft delivered to
CBL/OP shall be deemed to constitute CBL/OP's approval thereof. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, CBL/OP shall not be entitled to
disapprove any term, condition or other provision of a subsequent draft of a
proposed new Tenant Lease or a subsequent draft of a proposed amendment,
modification, supplement, termination or extension of a Tenant Lease delivered
to CBL/OP which (a) has not been changed or modified from any prior draft
approved or deemed approved by CBL/OP, or (b) constitutes merely a clarification
of a term or provision of a proposed new Tenant Lease or proposed amendment,
modification, supplement, termination or extension of a Tenant Lease without
changing the substance thereof or another immaterial change or revision to a
proposed new Tenant Lease or proposed amendment, modification, supplement,
termination or extension of a Tenant Lease, or (c) is set forth on Exhibit W
with respect to the Pending Transactions.

8.5 New Contracts. Except as permitted under the terms of this Agreement,
Property Owner shall not enter into any new contract or other agreement
affecting the Property (including but not limited to any transfer of any
interest in the Property or placement or allowance of placement of any mortgage
or lien against the Property) which would survive the Closing (other than new
Tenant Leases pursuant to Section 8.4 above); provided that no consent of CBL/OP
shall be required as to any proposed contract or other agreement which is
entered into in the course of Property Owner's ordinary course of operating and
maintaining the Property and which provides it is terminable upon 30 days (or
less) notice without premium or penalty payable by CBL/OP.

8.6 Liens. From the Effective Date until Closing, except for the Permitted
Exceptions, Property Owner shall not create or consent to the creation of any
security interests, liens, easements or other title conditions affecting any
portion of the Property, without the prior written consent of CBL/OP, which
shall not be unreasonably withheld.

8.7 Tenant Lease Defaults; Operating Agreement Defaults. From the Effective Date
until Closing, Property Owner shall promptly notify CBL/OP in writing of (i) the
occurrence of any material default under any Tenant Lease, which shall include,
without limitation, any monetary defaults by Tenants in excess of $50,000.00 in
the aggregate (regardless of whether Property Owner elects to declare a default)
under the Tenant Leases, and (ii) any notice or correspondence received by
Property Owner or Property Owner's Property Manager from a Tenant or an Anchor
Store with respect to the Property where such notice or correspondence includes
any notice, threat or reference by such Tenant or Anchor Store of any default or
breach or potential default or potential breach under a Lease or the Operating
Agreement or where such notice or correspondence includes any notice of an
intent or threat to terminate a Tenant Lease or the Operating Agreement.

8.8 Transfers. From the Effective Date until Closing, Property Owner shall not
(i) other than due to a casualty, condemnation or as required by law, offer to
sell, or sell, mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise transfer or dispose of
all or any part of the Property or any interest therein, except for creation of
the mortgage or other lien securing the Closing Date Debt as contemplated under
this Agreement, or (ii) list the Property or any part thereof with any broker
(other than extending the existing listing with Property Owner's Broker) or
otherwise


                                       49


offer or solicit offers for the sale or transfer of the Property to
any person or entity other than the CBL/OP.

8.9 Litigation. From the Effective Date until Closing, Property Owner shall give
CBL/OP prompt notice of the institution of any litigation, arbitration or other
administrative proceeding of which Property Owner becomes aware involving the
Property or that could impact Property Owner's interest in the Property and will
allow CBL/OP, if requested by CBL/OP, to participate in any decision to settle
such matters and CBL/OP shall be entitled to approve or disapprove any
settlement of such matters that, in the case of any of the foregoing, may have
any material adverse impact on the Property following the Closing (it being
agreed that a settlement which merely requires the payment of money by Property
Owner and/or its insurers, and does not impose any future obligations concerning
operation of the Property will be deemed not to have a material adverse impact
on the Property following the Closing).

8.10 Schedule and Exhibit Updates. Property Owner shall notify CBL/OP of (i) any
circumstance known to Property Owner that would result in a change to any
Schedule or Exhibit or (ii) any discovery (or remembrance) of facts which would
render any Schedule or Exhibit inaccurate or incomplete within a reasonable time
following Property Owner's knowledge of the occurrence of such circumstance or
discovery of such facts.

8.11 Company Assets and Liabilities. Between the formation thereof and the
Closing, the Company's only assets shall be the Property and the Company shall
have incurred or assumed no liabilities of Property Owner except those to which
CBL/OP has expressly agreed herein.

8.12  Employees.  Property  Owner hereby  covenants not to permit the Company to
employ any employees.



                                  ARTICLE IX

Contributor in Section 7.1 above, it is understood and agreed that neither
Contributors nor Property Owner nor any of Property Owner's respective agents,
employees, contractors or representatives, nor any other person purporting to

any particular purpose, and that no Contributor or Property Owner makes any

consequences (including the amount, use or provisions relating to any tax
credits). CBL/OP further acknowledges that any information of any type which
CBL/OP has received or may receive from Property Owner Contributors or any of
their respective agents, employees, contractors or representatives, including
any environmental reports and survey, is furnished on the express condition that
CBL/OP shall not rely thereon, but shall make an independent verification of the
accuracy of such information, all such information being furnished without any
representation or warranty whatsoever.

9.2 Sale "As Is". CBL/OP represents and warrants that CBL/OP is a knowledgeable,
experienced and sophisticated buyer of real estate and that CBL/OP has relied
and shall rely solely on (a) CBL/OP's own expertise and that of CBL/OP's
advisors and consultants in purchasing the Property, and (b) CBL/OP's own
knowledge of the Property based on CBL/OP's investigations and inspections of
the Property. CBL/OP has conducted such inspections and investigations of the

the risk that adverse matters, including adverse physical and environmental
conditions, may not have been revealed by CBL/OP's inspections and
investigations. CBL/OP acknowledges and agrees that upon Closing, Contributors
shall convey to CBL/OP and CBL/OP shall accept the LLC Interests based on the
condition of the Property being "as is, where is," with all faults and defects
(latent and apparent). CBL/OP further acknowledges and agrees that there are no
oral agreements, warranties or representations with respect to the Property made
by any Contributor, Property Owner, or any agent, employee, contractor or
representative of either of them except for representations and warranties made
by Property Owner and Contributors in this Agreement or any document delivered
at or prior to Closing pursuant hereto. The terms and conditions of Section 9.1
and this Section 9.2 shall expressly survive the Closing, shall not merge


                                       51


with
any Closing Documents. Property Owner is not liable or bound in any manner by
any oral or written statements, representations or information pertaining to the
Property furnished by Property Owner's Property Manager, Property Owner's broker
or any other real estate broker, or any contractor, agent, or other third
person. CBL/OP acknowledges that the total consideration reflects the "as is"
condition of the Property and any faults, liabilities, defects or other adverse
matters that may be associated with the Property except for representations and
warranties made by Property Owner and Contributors in this Agreement or any
document delivered at or prior to Closing pursuant hereto. CBL/OP has fully
reviewed the disclaimers and waivers set forth in this Agreement with CBL/OP's
counsel and understands the significance and effect thereof.

9.3 CBL/OP Acknowledgments. CBL/OP acknowledges and agrees that (a) to the
extent required to be operative, the disclaimers of warranties contained in
Section 9.1 and Section 9.2 above are "conspicuous" disclaimers for purposes of
all applicable laws and other legal requirements, and (b) the disclaimers and
other agreements set forth in Section 9.1 and Section 9.2 are an integral part
of this Agreement, that the Total Consideration has been adjusted to reflect the
same and that Contributors and Property Owner would not have agreed to
consummate the transactions contemplated hereby without the disclaimers and
other agreements set forth in Section 9.1 and Section 9.2 above.

9.4 CBL/OP Represented by Counsel. CBL/OP hereby represents and warrants to
Property Owner and Contributors that: (a) CBL/OP is not in a significantly
disparate bargaining position in relation to Property Owner; (b) CBL/OP is
represented by legal counsel in connection with the transaction contemplated by
this Agreement; and (c) CBL/OP is acquiring the LLC Interests, and the indirect
ownership of the Property, for business, commercial, investment or other similar
purposes.

9.5   CBL/OP's Release of Property Owner and Contributors.

9.5.1 Property Owner and Contributors Released From Liability. Subject to those
obligations (including, without limitation, representations and warranties) of
Property Owner and/or Contributors which this Agreement specifically provides
shall survive the Closing, CBL/OP hereby waives its and their right to recover
from and fully and irrevocably releases Property Owner, Property Owner's
Property Manager and Contributors and Property Owner's employees, officers,
directors, representatives, agents, advisors, servants, attorneys, affiliates,
parent, subsidiaries, successors and assigns, and all persons, firms,
corporations and organizations acting on Property Owner's and/or Contributors'
behalf (the "Released Parties") from any and all claims, responsibility and/or
liability that CBL/OP may now have or hereafter acquire against any of the
Released Parties for any costs, loss, liability, damage, expenses, demand,
action or cause of action arising from or related to (a) the physical,
environmental and structural condition (including any construction defects,
errors, omissions or other conditions, latent or otherwise), valuation,
salability or utility of the Property, or its suitability for any purpose
whatsoever, (b) the presence of any environmental problems, or the use,
presence, storage, release, discharge, or migration of Hazardous Substances on,
in, under or around the Property regardless of when such Hazardous Substances
were first introduced in, on or about the Property, and (c) the presence,
release and/or remediation of asbestos and asbestos containing materials in, on
or about the Property regardless of when such asbestos and asbestos containing
materials were first introduced in, on or about the Property. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the


                                       52


Released Parties shall not be deemed to include contractors,
subcontractors and other persons who are unaffiliated with Property Owner and
who have supplied labor, materials or equipment to a work of improvement at the
Real Property. This release includes claims of which CBL/OP is presently unaware
or which CBL/OP does not presently suspect to exist which, if known by CBL/OP,
would materially affect CBL/OP's release of the Released Parties. CBL/OP
specifically waives the provision of any statute or principle of law, which
provides otherwise. In this connection and to the extent permitted by law,
CBL/OP agrees, represents and warrants that CBL/OP realizes and acknowledges
that factual matters now unknown to CBL/OP may have given or may hereafter give
rise to causes of action, claims, demands, debts, controversies, damages, costs,
losses and expenses which are presently unknown, unanticipated and unsuspected,
and CBL/OP further agrees, represents and warrants that the waivers and releases
herein have been negotiated and agreed upon in light of that realization and
that CBL/OP nevertheless hereby intends to release, discharge and acquit
Property Owner from any such unknown causes of action, claims, demands, debts,
controversies, damages, costs, losses and expenses.

9.5.2 Claims Under Environmental Laws. As used herein, (a) "Environmental Laws"
means the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
of 1980 (42 U.S.C. Section 9601 et seq.), as amended, or the Resource
Conservation and Recovery Act (42 U.S.C. Section 6902 et seq.), as amended, or
any similar federal, state or local law, ordinance, rule or regulation
applicable to the Property (including any principles of common law or common law
theories); and (b) "Hazardous Substances" means any hazardous, toxic or
dangerous waste, substance or material, any pollutant or contaminant, or any
substance which is toxic, explosive, corrosive, flammable, infectious,
radioactive, carcinogenic, mutagenic or otherwise hazardous, or any substance
which contains gasoline, diesel fuel or other petroleum hydrocarbons,
polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), radon gas, urea formaldehyde or asbestos; and
(c) "Unknown Environmental Liabilities" means future obligations to remediate
Hazardous Substances which are located on the Property prior to the Closing,
whether or not such Hazardous Substance is disclosed by any of the Property
Records, CBL/OP's Information or any other source prior to the Closing. Without
limiting the foregoing provisions of this Article IX and notwithstanding the
provisions of any Environmental Laws to the contrary, but subject to (and
without waiving in any respect) the representations and warranties made by
Property Owner and Contributors in Sections 7.1.11, 7.1.13 and 7.1.19 above, (i)
Unknown Environmental Liabilities relating to the Property which exist on or
before the Closing shall be borne solely by CBL/OP, and (ii) Property Owner and
the Contributors shall be deemed to be released from all Unknown Environmental
Liabilities pursuant to Section 9.5.1 above. Without limiting the foregoing, but
subject to (and without waiving in any respect) the representations and
warranties made by Property Owner and the Contributors in Sections 7.1.11,
7.1.13 and 7.1.19 above, CBL/OP hereby waives and agrees not to commence any
action, legal proceeding, cause of action or suits in law or equity, of whatever
kind or nature, including a private right of action under the federal superfund
laws, 42 U.S.C. Sections 9601 et seq. or any other Environmental Laws (as such
laws and statutes may be amended, supplemented or replaced from time to time),
directly or indirectly, against the Released Parties in connection with Unknown
Environmental Liabilities or any other claims relating to Hazardous Substances
at the Property or arising under Environmental Laws with respect to the
Property.

                                CBL/OP'S INITIALS

9.5.3 Survival. The foregoing provisions of this Article IX, including the
waivers and releases by CBL/OP, shall survive the Closing.

                                   ARTICLE X
                                    REMEDIES

10.1 Liquidated Damages; Property Owner's/Contributors' Remedies. In the event
the Closing and the consummation of the transaction contemplated herein do not
occur as provided herein by reason of any breach of CBL/OP, CBL/OP, Property
Owner and Contributors agree that it would be impractical and extremely
difficult to estimate the damages which Property Owner and Contributors may
suffer as a result thereof. Therefore, CBL/OP and Property Owner and
Contributors do hereby agree that a reasonable estimate of the total net
detriment that Property Owner and Contributors would suffer in the event that
CBL/OP breaches this Agreement and fails to complete the purchase of the
Property is and shall be, as Property Owner's and Contributors' sole and
exclusive remedy (whether at law or in equity), and as the full, agreed and
liquidated damages for such breach, an amount equal to the Deposit (it being
agreed by Property Owner and the Contributors that such Deposit shall be
allocated among the Contributors and the Other Mall Contributors in the manner
described in the Indemnity Escrow Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit
AA. Upon any such breach by CBL/OP, unless otherwise specified, this Agreement
shall be terminated and neither party shall have any further rights or
obligations hereunder, each to the other, except for the right of Property Owner
and/or Contributors to collect and retain such liquidated damages from CBL/OP
and Escrow Agent and the obligation of CBL/OP to deliver to Property Owner
and/or Contributors the delivery items pursuant to Section 4.6 above; provided,
however, that this liquidated damages provision shall not limit Property Owner's
and/or Contributors' right to (a) receive reimbursement for or recover damages
in connection with CBL/OP's indemnity of Property Owner and/or Contributors
and/or breach of CBL/OP's obligations pursuant to Section 4.4.2 and Section 5.9
above, (b) recover attorneys' fees and court costs pursuant to Section 10.3
below, (c) injunctive relief under Section 4.2.6 above, and/or (d) pursue any
and all remedies available at law or in equity in the event that following any
termination of this Agreement, CBL/OP or any other CBL/OP party asserts any
claims or right to the Property that would otherwise delay or prevent Property
Owner or the Company, as applicable, from having clear, indefeasible and
marketable title to the Property. The parties acknowledge that the payment of
such liquidated damages is not intended as a forfeiture or penalty, but is
intended to constitute liquidated damages to Property Owner and Contributors.

10.2 CBL/OP's Remedies. Subject to Section 10.5 below, in the event the Closing
and the consummation of the transaction contemplated herein do not occur as
provided herein by reason of any breach of Property Owner and/or Contributors,
then CBL/OP shall elect, as CBL/OP's sole remedy, either to: (a) terminate this
Agreement by giving Property Owner timely written notice of such election prior
to or upon the Closing Date, and CBL/OP shall be entitled to recover from Escrow
Agent or Property Owner, as applicable, the Letter of Credit or the Deposit, as
applicable; or (b) enforce specific performance against Property Owner, in which
event there shall be no reduction of the Total Consideration and CBL/OP shall
not be entitled to recover any


                                       54


damages (whether actual, direct, indirect,
consequential, punitive or otherwise) notwithstanding such failure or breach by
Property Owner and/or Contributors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Property
Owner breaches any of Property Owner's obligations which pursuant to this
Agreement are to be performed by Property Owner prior to the Closing Date, and
instead of terminating this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10.2, CBL/OP
proceeds with the Closing, then CBL/OP shall be deemed to have waived such
default by Property Owner, provided that CBL/OP has knowledge thereof prior to
Closing. CBL/OP shall be deemed to have elected to terminate this Agreement
pursuant to Clause (a) hereinabove if CBL/OP fails to commence an action to
assert a claim for specific performance against Property Owner and/or
Contributors on or before 30 days following the Closing Date. Notwithstanding
the foregoing to the contrary, no notice of termination given by CBL/OP
hereunder shall be of any force or effect if Property Owner and/or Contributors
cure the default within 5 Business Days after Property Owner's receipt of any
such termination notice. If CBL/OP duly elects to terminate or is deemed to have
elected to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Clause (a) hereinabove, then
CBL/OP shall and hereby agrees in such event to waive any and all right to file
or record any lis pendens or any other lien or encumbrance against the Property
or to seek specific performance or other equitable relief or to seek or recover
from Property Owner and/or Contributors any damages (including any actual
direct, indirect, consequential, punitive or other damages).

10.3 Attorneys' Fees. If any action is brought by either party against the other
party, relating to or arising out of this Agreement, the transaction described
herein or the enforcement hereof, the prevailing party shall be entitled to
recover from the other party reasonable attorneys' fees, costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the prosecution or defense of such action. For
purposes of this Agreement, the term "attorneys' fees" or "attorneys' fees and
costs" shall mean the fees and expenses of counsel to the parties hereto, which
may include printing, photostatting, duplicating and other expenses, air freight
charges, and fees billed for law clerks, paralegals and other persons not
admitted to the bar but performing services under the supervision of an
attorney, and the costs and fees incurred in connection with the enforcement or
collection of any judgment obtained in any such proceeding. The provisions of
this Section 10.3 shall survive the Closing and any termination of this
Agreement and shall survive the entry of any judgment, and shall not merge, or
be deemed to have merged, into any judgment.

10.4  Mutual Post-Closing Indemnities.

10.4.1 Definition of Losses. For purposes of this Section, "Losses" shall mean
any and all claims, actions, suits, demands, losses, damages, liabilities,
obligations, judgments, settlements approved by the indemnifying party, awards,
penalties, costs or expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' and paralegals' fees and expenses (based on actual time spent and
normal billing rates, and without giving effect to any statutory presumption of
the amount of reasonable attorneys' fees that might apply) but excluding the
following but only insofar as the following do not or have not resulted in
actual monetary loss: any damage to reputation, mental or emotional distress or
interference with business operations.

10.4.2 Contributors' Indemnity. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section
7.3 above and Sections 10.5 and 10.6 below, Contributors hereby agree, jointly
and severally, to indemnify, hold harmless and defend CBL/OP and the Company and
any officer, director, partner, employee and/or agent of CBL/OP or the Company
from and against any and all Losses


                                       55


arising out of or resulting from (i) any
default by Property Owner on or prior to Closing under the Tenant Leases, the
Service Contracts or the Operating Agreement; (ii) the breach or inaccuracy of
any representation or warranty made by Property Owner and/or Contributors in
this Agreement or the Closing documents delivered by Property Owner and/or
Contributors; (iii) any third party tort claim with respect to the Property that
arises or arose as the result of any injury or damage occurring on or prior to
Closing; (iv) the failure of Property Owner, and/or Contributors to perform any
of their covenants (I) set forth in Article VIII of this Agreement, (II) or such
other covenants set forth in this Agreement that are to be performed after the
Closing; or (v) any claims by Property Owner's employees, including, but not
limited to, any claims related to any termination of such employees' employment
and any unpaid wages, severances, bonuses, and retirement packages; provided,
however, that nothing in this Section 10.4.2 shall obligate Contributors and/or
Property Owner to indemnify, hold harmless or defend CBL/OP with regard to any
Losses arising from (1) any continuing condition of the Property as of the
Closing Date which CBL/OP has agreed to accept in its "AS-IS, WHERE-IS"
condition as of the Closing Date, or (2) any matter for which CBL/OP has agreed
to release Property Owner and Contributors pursuant to Section 9.5 of this
Agreement, or (3) any matter described in the last sentence of Section 7.5.

10.4.3 Sources for Satisfaction of Contributors' Indemnity. At the Closing,
CBL/OP, the Contributors, the Other Mall Contributors and the Hickory Point
Property Owner shall establish with Escrow Agent at Closing a single escrow
account (the "Indemnity Escrow Fund") for this Agreement and the Other Mall
Contracts, into which $5,000,000 shall be deposited by the Contributors, the
Other Mall Contributors and the Hickory Point Property Owner, and held and
administered by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of the
Indemnity Escrow Agreement as the initial source for CBL/OP's and the Company's
claims for indemnifications under this Agreement and under the Other Mall
Contracts and for any Percentage Rentals due and payable by the Contributors to
CBL/OP after reconciliation pursuant to Section 6.4.4 above. The amount to be
deposited by each Contributor in the Indemnity Escrow Fund shall be based on
such Contributor's proportionate share ("Contributor's Share") of the aggregate
amount of Total Consideration plus the Other Mall Total Consideration (with the
balance of the Indemnity Escrow Fund to be paid by the Hickory Point Property
Owner). The entire amount of the Indemnity Escrow Fund shall be available to
satisfy claims under this Agreement or either of the Other Mall Contracts,
without regard to what portion of such Indemnity Escrow Fund has been funded by
Contributors hereunder, by Other Mall Contributors or by the Hickory Point
Property Owner. At any time prior to the "Expiration Date" specified in Section
7.3, CBL/OP shall be entitled to make a claim against the Indemnity Escrow Fund
for Losses incurred by CBL/OP and for which it is entitled to be indemnified
pursuant to Section 10.4.2 of this Agreement and for Percentage Rentals due and
payable by the Contributors to CBL/OP after reconciliation pursuant to Section
6.4.4 above; provided however, with respect to the "Unlimited Claims" set forth
in Section 10.6, CBL/OP's remedy shall not be limited to the amount of funds
held in the Indemnity Escrow Fund, and CBL/OP may make a claim directly against
any or all of the Contributors for payment thereof. As of the Expiration Date,
the funds remaining in the Indemnity Escrow Fund shall be disbursed in the
manner described in the Indemnity Escrow Agreement, except to the extent that
CBL/OP has made a claim hereunder which remains outstanding, in which case, the
amount in excess of such claim shall be disbursed to the Contributors, and the
remaining amount, if any, shall be disbursed upon the resolution of such claim.

                                       56


10.4.4 CBL/OP's Indemnity. Subject to the limitations set forth herein, CBL/OP
agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Contributors and any officer,
director, member, employee and/or agent of Property Owner from and against any
and all costs, losses, damages and expenses, of any kind or nature whatsoever
(including attorneys' fees and costs) arising out of or resulting from (i) any
default by CBL/OP on or after Closing under the Tenant Leases, the Service
Contracts (whether or not assumed by CBL/OP) or the Operating Agreement, (ii)
the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by CBL/OP in
this Agreement or the Closing documents delivered by CBL/OP, (iii) any third
party tort claim with respect to the Property that arises or arose as the result
of any injury or damage occurring after Closing, (iv) the failure of CBL/OP to
perform any of its covenants set forth in this Agreement, (v) any other
liabilities relating to the operation of the Property arising from and after
Closing, or (vi) excluding the matters for which the Contributors have agreed to
indemnify the Company and CBL/OP in Section 6.10 above, the Company's failure to
honor the Outstanding Gift Certificates (it being agreed that the indemnity
obligation in this clause [vi] shall not be subject to the limitations in
Section 10.5, and that CBL/OP's obligation under this Section shall not be
subject to any limitation on the survival period of claims).

10.5 Minimum Amount Requirement for Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained in this Agreement, if the Closing is consummated, neither
party shall have any liability to the other party following the Closing with
respect to any breaches of indemnification obligations under Sections 10.4.2 and
10.4.4 (nor with respect to the breach of any obligation or warranty or
representation to which such indemnity applies [collectively, an
"Indemnification Obligation"]), unless and until the aggregate amount of the
actual general and compensatory damages suffered by the non-defaulting party by
reason of any such breaches of an Indemnification Obligation, exceeds the sum of
$250,000; but then in such event, the damages that the non-defaulting party may
collect shall begin with and include the first dollar of such loss. Unless and
until the amount of the actual damages suffered or incurred by the
non-defaulting party by reason of any such breaches of Indemnification
Obligations exceeds in the aggregate the sum of $250,000, the non-defaulting
party shall not be entitled to file an action or lawsuit or undertake any other
legal proceeding against the defaulting party by reason of any such breaches of
Indemnification Obligations. The provisions of this Section 10.5 shall survive
the Closing. The limitations set forth in this Section 10.5 shall not apply to
breaches of any covenants (other than the Indemnification Obligations), nor
apply to the prorations pursuant to Article VI.

10.6 Limitation of Contributors' Liability. Subject to the limitations and other
provisions of this Agreement, Contributors' total liability with respect to a
breach of any of Property Owner's and/or Contributors' representations or
warranties contained in this Agreement or in any document or instrument executed
and delivered by Property Owner and/or Contributors at Closing or any breach of
Contributors' Indemnification Obligations (other than the representations and
warranties set forth in Sections 7.1.1, 7.1.2, 7.1.6, 7.1.7, 7.1.22 or the
indemnification obligations under Sections 10.4.2 to the extent the same cover
breaches of the representations and warranties under Sections 7.1.1, 7.1.2,
7.1.6, 7.1.7, or 7.1.22 [collectively, the "Unlimited Claims"]) is limited to
$5,000,000 in the aggregate for all such breaches hereunder and all breaches of
the comparable provisions of the Other Mall Contracts. In computing the
aggregate amount of claims for the foregoing purpose, Property Owner's and
Contributors' liability shall be in addition to the amount of any insurance
proceeds and any


                                       57


indemnity, contribution or similar payment received by the
Company or CBL/OP from any third party with respect thereto less expenses
incurred by the Company or CBL/OP in collecting any such insurance proceeds and
third party payments. The foregoing limitation on liability shall survive the
Closing or any earlier termination of this Agreement and shall not diminish or
otherwise affect CBL/OP's waivers and releases in Article IX of this Agreement.

10.7  Intentionally Omitted,

10.8 Limited Liability. CBL/OP hereby agrees that in no event or circumstance
shall any of the members, partners, shareholders, employees, representatives,
officers, directors, or agents of Property Owner, Property Owner's Property
Manager or Contributors have any personal liability under this Agreement, or to
any of CBL/OP's creditors, or to any other party in connection with the Property
except that any members, partners, shareholders, officers, directors or agents
of Property Owner who are also Contributors shall be fully liable for all
Contributors' obligations and liabilities hereunder. Property Owner and
Contributors hereby agrees that in no event or circumstance shall any of the
members, partners, shareholders, employees, representatives, officers,
directors, or agents of CBL/OP have any personal liability under this Agreement,
or to any of Property Owner's creditors, or to any other party in connection
with the Property.

      Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Article X
shall survive the Closing.

                                   ARTICLE XI
                          CONDEMNATION/CASUALTY DAMAGE

11.1 Condemnation. If, prior to Closing, any governmental authority or other
entity having condemnation authority shall institute an eminent domain
proceeding or take any steps preliminary thereto (including the giving of any
direct or indirect notice of intent to institute such proceedings) with regard
to a "Material Portion" of the Land and Improvements (as defined below), and the
same is not dismissed prior to the Closing Date, CBL/OP shall be entitled, as
CBL/OP's sole remedy, to terminate this Agreement upon written notice to
Property Owner (a) within 15 Business Days following notice by Property Owner to
CBL/OP of such condemnation or the threatened condemnation or (b) on the Closing
Date, whichever occurs first. If CBL/OP does not terminate this Agreement
pursuant to the preceding sentence, CBL/OP shall be conclusively deemed to have
elected to accept such condemnation and waives any right to terminate this
Agreement as a result thereof. For purposes of this Section 11.1, a "Material
Portion" shall mean that portion of the Land and Improvements which, if taken or
condemned, would reduce the value of the Property by more than Two Million
Dollars ($2,000,000). If CBL/OP elects to terminate this Agreement under this
Section 11.1, Escrow Agent or Property Owner, as applicable, shall return the
Letter of Credit or the Deposit, as applicable, to CBL/OP and neither party
shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement, except for
the CBL/OP's Surviving Obligations. If CBL/OP waives (or is deemed to have
waived) the right to terminate this Agreement as a result of such a
condemnation, then despite such condemnation, Property Owner and CBL/OP shall
proceed to Closing in accordance with the terms of this Agreement with no
reduction in the Total Consideration, and Property Owner shall assign to the
Company at Closing, as part of the Intangible Property, all of Property Owner's
right, title and


                                       58


interest in and to all proceeds resulting or to result from
said condemnation and give a credit for any proceeds received prior to Closing.

11.2 Nonmaterial Condemnation. If, prior to Closing, a taking or condemnation
relating to the Property has occurred, or is threatened, which is not described
in Section 11.1 above, the Closing shall take place as provided in this
Agreement with no reduction of the Total Consideration, and Property Owner shall
assign to the Company at Closing, as part of the Intangible Property, all of
Property Owner's right, title and interest in and to all proceeds resulting or
to result from said condemnation and give a credit for any proceeds received
prior to Closing.

11.3 Casualty Damage. If, prior to the Closing, any of the Improvements are
damaged by fire or other casualty (collectively, "Casualty"), as promptly as
possible after Property Owner learns of such Casualty, Property Owner shall
deliver to CBL/OP written notice thereof ("Casualty Loss Notice") together with
Property Owner's determination as to whether the damage constitutes a "Material
Damage" (as defined below). For the purposes of this Section 11.3, "Material
Damage" shall mean damage to the Improvements which is of such nature that the
cost of restoring the Improvements to their condition prior to the Casualty
will, in Property Owner's reasonable determination as provided in the Casualty
Loss Notice, exceed Two Million Dollars ($2,000,000), whether or not such damage
is covered by insurance. If, prior to the Closing, the Improvements sustain
Material Damage by a Casualty, CBL/OP may, at CBL/OP's option, terminate this
Agreement by delivering written notice thereof to Property Owner and Escrow
Agent within the earlier of (a) 10 Business Days after CBL/OP's receipt of the
Casualty Loss Notice or (b) the Closing Date. If the Improvements are damaged by
a Casualty which is not a Material Damage, or if CBL/OP fails to deliver written
notice of termination within the time period set forth hereinabove for a
Material Damage, then: (i) the parties shall proceed to close this transaction
in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; (ii) at the Closing, CBL/OP
shall receive a credit against the Total Consideration in an amount equal to the
deductible under Property Owner's casualty insurance policy plus the amount of
any proceeds received by Property Owner prior to Closing to the extent the same
exceed costs of restoration and repair expended by Property Owner; and (iii)
Property Owner shall, as part of the Intangible Property, assign to CBL/OP all
of Property Owner's rights in the resulting casualty insurance proceeds;
provided, however, that in no event shall the sum of such credit for the
deductible and the amount of the insurance proceeds assigned to CBL/OP pursuant
to Clauses (ii) and (iii) hereinabove exceed the lesser of (1) the Total
Consideration or (2) the cost to complete the repair of the Casualty following
the Closing; provided, however, CBL/OP shall have no obligation to close with an
assignment of casualty insurance proceeds unless Property Owner shall provide to
CBL/OP a statement from the insurance company recognizing the casualty and the
applicability of the insurance policy thereto and noting the insurance carrier's
acknowledgement of the coverages set forth in the insurance policy to the
particular casualty with no offsets, exclusions or denials of coverage and the
assignability of the policy to the CBL/OP, and CBL/OP shall be reasonably
satisfied that the insurance proceeds are adequate to restore the damage, and if
Property Owner fails to provide such statement from the insurance company by the
Closing Date, and Contributors are unwilling to escrow (on terms mutually
satisfactory to the parties) the amount required to restore the damage, CBL/OP
may elect to terminate this Agreement, by written notice to Property Owner. If
CBL/OP elects to terminate this Agreement under this Section 11.3, Escrow Agent
or Property Owner, as applicable, shall


                                       59


return the Letter of Credit or the
Deposit, as applicable, to CBL/OP and neither party shall have any further
rights or obligations under this Agreement, except for the CBL/OP's Surviving
Obligations.

                                  ARTICLE XII
           CBL/OP'S AND ELECTING CONTRIBUTORS' POST-CLOSING COVENANTS

12.1 CBL/OP's Post-Closing Covenants. In addition to any other covenant or
agreement that is specifically stated in this Agreement as surviving the
Closing, CBL/OP and the Electing Contributors agree to the following regarding
certain post-Closing matters as set forth below:

12.1.1 Electing Contributors Allocation of Portion of CBL/OP's Debt; Allocations
of Code Section 704(c) Tax Items; Certain Income Allocations.

(a) Electing Contributors Allocation of Portion of CBL/OP's Debt. CBL/OP and
each Electing Contributor agree that subsequent to the Closing, each such
Electing Contributor will be allocated for purposes of Code Section 752 (taking
into account the Guarantees) an aggregate portion of CBL/OP's debt of not less
than the amount specified on Schedule II representing each such Electing
Contributor's negative tax basis at Closing and such allocation shall be
maintained in such amount for a period of not less than twelve (12) years after
the Closing Date, provided, however, that if CBL/OP determines that the
aggregate portion of CBL/OP's debt that is allocable, or that will be allocable,
to any Electing Contributor is less than the amount specified on Schedule II at
any time after the Closing Date (a "Debt Shortfall"), for as long as such
Electing Contributor (or any permitted transferee) continues to hold Partnership
Interests, CBL/OP will offer such Electing Contributor (or permitted transferees
of the Partnership Interests from such Electing Contributor ) the opportunity to
make "bottom guarantees" under terms and conditions comparable to "bottom
guarantees" offered to other partners of CBL/OP, provided further that such
"bottom guarantees" shall be of no more than 33% of the indebtedness so
guaranteed in an amount necessary to avoid current taxable income to such
Electing Contributor, and the indebtedness so guaranteed shall be institutional
or CMBS non-recourse indebtedness secured by first mortgages or deeds of trust
on CBL-owned properties. If any Electing Contributor that receives Partnership
Interests (or such transferees) declines to make such "bottom guarantees,"
CBL/OP shall have no further obligation to the party declining to make the
"bottom guarantee" with respect to the Debt Shortfall. CBL/OP shall have no
obligation under this Article 12 to any Electing Contributor (or any transferee
thereof) from and after the date that such person disposes of its Partnership
Interests, including, but not limited to, a sale of such Partnership Interests
or a conversion of such Partnership Interests into CBL/REIT stock, nor shall
CBL/OP have any liability to the estate of any such person that is a natural
person following the death of such person.

      Notwithstanding the above paragraph, CBL/OP and each Electing Contributor
agree that for as long as the Closing Date Debt remains outstanding, each
Electing Contributor will be allocated for purposes of Section 752 Closing Date
Debt of not less than the such Electing Contributor's percentage interest of the
Closing Date Debt (less any principal amortization) as indicated on Schedule I.
For purposes hereof, CBL/OP agrees that it will not voluntarily prepay or
otherwise accelerate the payment of the Closing Date Debt during the two year
period following the Closing.

                                       60


      Notwithstanding the elimination of any "debt protection" following the
twelfth (12) anniversary of the Closing Date, in the event that thereafter any
Electing Contributor or such Electing Contributor's successors and assigns shall
desire to be advised as to CBL/OP's plans, if any, as to debt allocations and/or
the debt related to the Shopping Center with respect to the tax treatment and
impact thereof, such Electing Contributor or such Electing Contributor's
successors and assigns may request, in writing, that CBL/OP advise it or them of
any plans or planning that CBL/OP may have at that time. CBL/OP agrees to share
such information with any such Electing Contributor or such Electing
Contributor's successors and assigns if there are such plans or planning but any
such Electing Contributor or such Electing Contributor's successors and assigns
must agree to hold such information in strict confidence and not divulge such
plans or planning to any third party other than such accountants or tax advisors
that may be assisting such Electing Contributors or such Electing Contributor's
successors and assigns. Such Electing Contributors' or its successors' and
assigns' rights to request such plans or planning may be made no more frequently
than once per calendar quarter and the failure of CBL/OP to respond to such
requests shall not be deemed a default under this Agreement.

      Additionally, following the twelfth (12) anniversary of the Closing Date,
CBL/OP shall reasonably offer bottom guarantees to each Electing Contributor on
terms similar to those provided to other then existing partners of CBL/OP.

(b) Allocations of Code Section 704(c) Tax Items. Each Electing Contributor and
CBL/OP agree that the tax items under Section 704(c) of the Code (the "704(c)
Tax Items") with respect to the Shopping Center following the Closing Date shall
be allocated by CBL/OP according to the "traditional method" with back-end
curative allocations upon a sale of the Shopping Center as such methods and
procedures are outlined in Section 704(c) of the Code and the regulations
promulgated thereunder.

(c) Certain Income Allocations. Each Electing Contributor and CBL/OP agree that
CBL/OP shall allocate taxable income to such Electing Contributor in each fiscal
year in an amount equivalent to the cash distributions made to such Electing
Contributor in respect of its Partnership Interests during such fiscal year of
CBL/OP (i.e., "income to follow cash"). Each Electing Contributor and CBL/OP
also agree that except for the allocations of the 704(c) Tax Items referenced in
Paragraph 12.1.1(b) above and the income allocations referenced herein and as
modified by the next-following sentence of this Paragraph 12.1.1(c), the
Partnership Interests of such Electing Contributor shall be treated, for all
other purposes of allocations of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit, in the
same manner as the other Common Units of CBL/OP as "Common Units" are defined in
CBL/OP's Partnership Agreement. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence but
except for the allocations of the 704(c) Tax Items referenced in Paragraph
12.1.1(b) above, each Electing Contributor shall be allocated income and/or gain
for a fiscal year of CBL/OP in excess of the cash distributions that such
Electing Contributor has received from CBL/OP for such fiscal year if and only
if (i) all other Common Unit holders of CBL/OP have received an income and/or
gain allocation equivalent to the cash distributions that such other Common Unit
holders received from CBL/OP for such fiscal year, and (ii) such allocation of
income and/or gain to such Electing Contributor is in an amount equivalent to
such Electing Contributor's pro rata portion, based on such Electing
Contributor's Partnership Interest, of the aggregate of the income and/or gain
remaining after the other Common Unit


                                       61


holders have been allocated income and/or
gain in an amount equivalent to the cash distributions that they received for
such fiscal year.

(d) Book Up of Other Assets. CBL/OP will adjust the values of its other real
properties as of the Closing Date to equal their respective fair market values
for book purposes under the principles of Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f) of the
Treasury Regulations, and will account for the resulting disparity between the
adjusted tax bases and book values of such real properties under the principles
of Section 704(c) of the Code, using the traditional method as such method is
outlined in Section 704(c) of the Code and the regulations promulgated
thereunder.

(e) Distribution Deferral. At the election of Electing Contributors, the
amendment to the CBL/OP Partnership Agreement which the parties adopt at Closing
to effectuate the terms of this Contribution Agreement shall include provisions
similar to those set forth in Paragraphs 10 and 11 of the First Amendment to the
Partnership Agreement (limiting dividends for 2 years to meet the safe-harbor
requirements of Section 1.707-4 of the Treasury Regulations). Any amount by
which a dividend during such 2 year period is limited (reduced) shall be
deferred and paid to Electing Contributors within two (2) months of the end of
such two year period.

12.1.2 Resale Restriction Agreement. CBL/OP agrees not to resell or transfer the
Shopping Center until the twelfth (12th) anniversary of the Closing Date other
than in a nonrecognition transaction in which no gain or loss is recognized (as
described in Treasury Regulation Section 1.704-3(a)(8)). The foregoing
limitation shall not be interpreted as restricting (i) a sale pursuant to a deed
in lieu of condemnation given by CBL/OP under the genuine threat of imminent
condemnation, (ii) a condemnation of substantially all of the Shopping Center or
(iii) the substantial destruction of substantially all of the Shopping Center as
a result of fire of other casualty if CBL/OP elects in good faith not to restore
the Shopping Center (it being agreed that a requirement by CBL/OP's then lender
to use such insurance proceeds to pay down the debt encumbering the Property
shall be deemed that CBL/OP has acted in good faith by electing not to restore
the Shopping Center); provided however that CBL/OP will use commercially
reasonable efforts to reinvest proceeds arising from events described in (i),
(ii) or (iii) in a manner that satisfies the requirements of Code Section 1033.
In addition, CBL/OP shall have no obligation under this Article 12 to any
Electing Contributor (or transferees of Partnership Interests from any such
Electing Contributor) from and after the date that such person disposes of its
Partnership Interests in a taxable transaction, including, but not limited to, a
sale of such Partnership Interests or a conversion of such Partnership Interests
into CBL/REIT stock, nor shall CBL/OP have any liability to the estate of any
such person that is a natural person following the death of such person.
Notwithstanding the foregoing prohibition on a taxable transfer or sale of the
Shopping Center, CBL/OP may sell or otherwise dispose of the Shopping Center or
interests therein in a taxable transaction if it agrees to pay the Electing
Contributors who hold Partnership Interests as of the date of such sale or
disposition an amount equal to the "Make Whole Amount." The term "Make Whole
Amount" shall mean an amount intended to compensate such Electing Contributors
on an after-tax basis for the federal and state income taxes imposed with
respect to the gain allocable to such Electing Contributors under Section 704(c)
of the Code (or any successor thereto) as a result of such sale or other taxable
transaction.

                                       62


12.1.3 Contributors' Tax Positions. Notwithstanding any provision to the
contrary stated in this Agreement and except as set forth in Paragraphs 12.1.1
and 12.1.2 above, CBL/OP shall have no obligation, liability, responsibility or
duty with respect to any tax position, tax structure, tax positions on any
financing or refinancing transactions (including any cash distributions and/or
any guarantees of debt resulting from such financing or refinancing
transaction), or other tax matters (state or federal) regarding Contributors
and/or the Shopping Center, other than real property taxes, with respect to
positions taken by Contributors prior to or in conjunction with the Closing.
Contributors agree to indemnify and hold harmless CBL/OP and its Affiliates with
respect to any such matters. It is the express intent of the parties hereto that
CBL/OP's obligations with respect to the tax positions of Contributors are
specifically limited to Paragraphs 12.1.1 and 12.1.2 of this Agreement.

12.2 Contributors' Post-Closing Covenants. In addition to any other covenant or
agreement that is specifically stated in this Agreement as surviving the
Closing, (i) the Contributors agree to continue the legal existence of Property
Owner, in good standing, until at least the first anniversary of the Closing
Date, and (ii) CBL/OP agrees to retain or make (at the request of any
Contributor) for itself and any subsidiary entity through which it owns the
Property (including any intermediate holding entities) an election under Code
Section 754. The provisions of this Section 12.2 shall survive the Closing.

                                  ARTICLE XIII
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

13.1 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement of the
parties hereto. There are no other agreements, oral or written, and this
Agreement can be amended only by written agreement signed by the parties hereto,
and by reference made a part hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Contributors hereby agree that effective as of the date hereof, the Contributor
Representative shall have the power and authority to negotiate, execute and
deliver, in the Contributor Representative's discretion, any amendments to this
Agreement on behalf of the Contributors and that any amendments to this
Agreement executed by the Contributor Representative shall be deemed to have
been executed by the Contributors.

"Notice") provided for or permitted by this Agreement to be made or accepted by

I. The parties hereto shall have the right from time to time to change their
respective addresses, and each shall have the right to specify as its address
any other address within the United States of America by at least 5 days written
notice to the other party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Section 13.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement, any Notice required to be
delivered to one or more of the Contributors under this Agreement, shall be

multiple counterparts (each of which is to be deemed original for all purposes).
The signature page of any counterpart may be detached therefrom without
impairing the legal effect of the signature(s) thereon so long as such signature
page is attached to any other counterpart of this Agreement identical thereto
except having additional signature pages executed by the other parties to this
Agreement attached thereto. CBL/OP, Property Owner and Contributors agree that
the delivery of an executed copy of this Agreement by facsimile shall be legal

executed copy of this Agreement had been delivered.

13.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or application to any
party or circumstance shall be determined by any court of competent jurisdiction
to be invalid and unenforceable to any extent, the remainder of this Agreement
or the application of such provision to such person or circumstances, other than
those as to which it is so determined invalid or unenforceable, shall not be
affected thereby, and each provision hereof shall be valid and shall be enforced
to the fullest extent permitted by law.

13.12 Limitations on Benefits. It is the explicit intention of CBL/OP, Property
Owner and Contributors that no person or entity other than CBL/OP, Property
Owner and Contributors and their permitted successors and assigns is or shall be
entitled to bring any action to enforce any provision of this Agreement against
any of the parties hereto, and the covenants, undertakings and agreements set
forth in this Agreement shall be solely for the benefit of, and shall be
enforceable only by, CBL/OP, Property Owner and Contributors or their respective
successors and assigns as permitted hereunder. Nothing contained in this
Agreement shall under any circumstances whatsoever be deemed or construed, or be
interpreted, as making any third party (including Property Owner's Property
Manager, Property Owner's Broker, CBL/OP's lender, any Anchor Store or any
Tenant) a beneficiary of any term or provision of this Agreement or any
instrument or document delivered pursuant hereto, and CBL/OP and Property Owner
and Contributors expressly reject any such intent, construction or
interpretation of this Agreement.

13.13 Interpretation. For purposes of this Agreement, except as otherwise
expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires: (a) the terms
defined in Article I above and have the meanings assigned to them in Article I
above and include the plural as well as the singular, and the use of any gender
herein shall be deemed to include the other genders; (b) references herein to
"Articles," "Sections," subsections, paragraphs and other subdivisions without
reference to a document are to designated Articles, Sections, subsections,
paragraphs and other subdivisions of this Agreement; (c) a reference to a
subsection without further reference to a Section is a reference to such
subsection as contained in the same Section in which the reference appears, and
this rule shall also apply to paragraphs and other subdivisions; (d) the words
"hereof," "herein," "thereof," "hereunder" and other words of similar import
refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision; (e) the
word "including" or "includes" means "including, but not limited to" or
"includes but is not limited to"; (f) the words "approval," "consent" and
"notice" shall be deemed to be preceded by the word "written"; (g) any reference
to this Agreement or any Exhibits hereto and any other instruments, documents
and agreements shall include this Agreement, Exhibits and other instruments,
documents and agreements as originally executed or existing and as the same may
from time to time be supplemented, modified or amended; and (h) unless otherwise
specifically provided, all references in this Agreement to a number of days
shall mean calendar days rather than Business Days and (i) "Business


                                       65


Days" shall
mean any day other than a Saturday, a Sunday or a Federal holiday on which banks
are closed for business in New York, New York.

13.14 Further Actions. CBL/OP and Property Owner and Contributors shall execute
or cause to be executed all such instruments or agreements as may be reasonably
necessary in order to carry out the purpose of this Agreement, and each party
shall do all other acts reasonably necessary or reasonably requested by the
other to carry out the intent and purpose of this Agreement.

13.15 No Other Inducements. The making, execution and delivery of this Agreement
by the parties hereto has been induced by no representations, statements,
warranties or agreements other than those expressly set forth herein.

13.16 Participation in Drafting. The language in all parts of this Agreement
shall be in all cases construed simply according to its fair meaning and not
strictly for or against any of the parties hereto. Property Owner and
Contributors and CBL/OP each acknowledge that they participated equally in the
drafting of this Agreement and, accordingly, no court construing this Agreement
shall construe it more stringently against one party than any other.

13.17  Exhibits.  Exhibit A through  Exhibit AA and Schedules I, II, 3.3 and 7.1
are incorporated herein by reference.

13.18 No Partnership/Fiduciary Relationship. The parties acknowledge and agree
that the relationship created by this Agreement between Property Owner and
Contributors and CBL/OP is one of contract only, and that no partnership, joint
venture or other fiduciary or quasi-fiduciary relationship is intended or in any
way created hereby, except after Closing by way of Contributors' status as a
limited partner of CBL/OP as a result of the issuance of the K-SCUs.

13.19 Conditional Delivery. The submission by Property Owner and Contributors to
CBL/OP of this Agreement in unsigned form shall be deemed to be a submission
solely for CBL/OP's consideration and not for acceptance and execution. Neither
such submission of this Agreement by Property Owner and Contributors to CBL/OP
nor any course of conduct between CBL/OP and Property Owner and Contributors nor
any actions undertaken or sums expended by CBL/OP shall confer any option or
other right upon CBL/OP or impose any obligation upon Property Owner and
Contributors irrespective of any reliance thereon, change of position or partial
performance. The submission by Property Owner and Contributors of this Agreement
for execution by CBL/OP and the actual execution and delivery thereof by CBL/OP
to Property Owner and Contributors shall similarly have no binding force and
effect on Property Owner and Contributors unless and until Property Owner and
Contributors have executed and delivered a counterpart of this Agreement to
CBL/OP and the Deposit has been actually received by Escrow Agent.

13.20 Survival. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the
representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this Agreement shall not
survive the Closing and shall be merged into the Special Warranty Deed and other
instruments and conveyances delivered at the Closing.

                                       66

information with respect to the sale contemplated herein or any matters set
forth in this Agreement will be made only in the form approved by CBL/OP and
Property Owner and their respective counsel.

the Contributors hereby irrevocably appoint Jack Fingersh as the true and lawful
agent, attorney-in-fact and representative for the Contributors for the purposes
of consummating the transactions contemplated under this Agreement (the
"Contributor Representative"). The Contributor Representative shall have the
power and authority, on behalf of the Contributors, to act in the all of the
Contributors' name, place and stead with respect to all transactions
contemplated by and all terms and provisions of this Agreement, and to do or
refrain from doing all such further acts and things, and execute all such
documents as the Contributor Representative shall, in its reasonable discretion,
deem necessary or appropriate in connection with the transactions contemplated
by this Agreement, including, without limitation, the power to execute and
deliver all ancillary agreements, certificates and documents and to receive all
Notices and service of process on behalf of the Contributors in connection with
any claims or matters under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the
