PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

This Annual Report on Form 10-K (this "Annual Report") is being filed by CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. (the "Company," "CBL," "we," "us" and "our"), a Delaware corporation. As described below, we refer to the post-emergence reorganized company as the “Successor” and the pre-emergence company as the “Predecessor.” Unless stated otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references to the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” also includes our subsidiaries.

Emergence from Bankruptcy

Beginning on November 1, 2020, CBL and CBL & Associates Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), together with certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”), filed voluntary petitions (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) under chapter 11 of title 11 (“Chapter 11”) of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Bankruptcy Court authorized the Debtors to continue to operate their businesses and manage their properties as debtors-in-possession pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code. The Chapter 11 Cases are being jointly administered for procedural purposes only under the caption In re CBL & Associates Properties, Inc., et al., Case No. 20-35226.

In connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, on August 11, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order, Docket No.1397 (Confirmation Order), confirming the Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and its Affiliated Debtors (With Technical Modifications) (as modified at Docket No. 1521, the “Plan”).

On November 1, 2021 (the “Effective Date”), the conditions to effectiveness of the Plan were satisfied and the Debtors emerged from the Chapter 11 Cases. The Company filed a notice of the Effective Date of the Plan with the Bankruptcy Court on November 1, 2021. Following the Effective Date, one of the Debtor’s Chapter 11 Cases remains open to administer claims pursuant to the Plan.

The Company’s Business

We were organized on July 13, 1993, as a Delaware corporation, and completed an initial public offering on November 3, 1993. We are a self-managed, self-administered, fully integrated real estate investment trust ("REIT"). We own, develop, acquire, lease, manage, and operate regional shopping malls, outlet centers, lifestyle centers, open-air centers and other properties. Our properties are located in 22 states, but are primarily in the southeastern and midwestern United States. We have elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.

We conduct substantially all our business through the Operating Partnership, which is a variable interest entity ("VIE"). We are the 100% owner of two qualified REIT subsidiaries, CBL Holdings I, Inc. and CBL Holdings II, Inc. CBL Holdings I, Inc. is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. At December 31, 2022, CBL Holdings I, Inc. owned a 1.0% general partner interest and CBL Holdings II, Inc. owned an 98.97% limited partner interest in the Operating Partnership, for a combined interest held by us of 99.97%. As of December 31, 2022, third parties owned a 0.03% limited partner interest in the Operating Partnership.

See Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements for information on our properties as of December 31, 2022. The Malls (“Malls, Lifestyle Centers and Outlet Centers”) and All Other Properties ("Open-Air Centers and Other") are collectively referred to as the “properties” and individually as a “property.”

We conduct our property management and development activities through CBL & Associates Management, Inc. (the “Management Company”) to comply with certain requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Internal Revenue Code"). The Operating Partnership owns 100% of the Management Company’s outstanding stock.

Rental revenues are primarily derived from leases with retail tenants and generally include fixed minimum rents, percentage rents based on tenants’ sales volumes and reimbursements from tenants for expenditures related to real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance ("CAM") and other recoverable operating expenses, as well as certain capital expenditures. We also generate revenues from management, leasing and development fees, sponsorships, sales of peripheral land at our properties and from sales of operating real estate assets when it is determined that we can realize an appropriate value for the assets. Proceeds from such sales are generally used to retire related indebtedness, reduce outstanding balances on our indebtedness and for general corporate purposes.

The following terms used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K will have the meanings described below:

▪GLA – refers to gross leasable area of space in square feet, including Anchors and Mall tenants.

▪Anchor – refers to a department store, other large retail store, non-retail space or theater greater than or equal to 50,000 square feet.

2

▪Junior Anchor - retail store, non-retail space or theater comprising 20,000 square feet and greater, but less than 50,000 square feet.

▪Inline – retail store or non-retail space comprising less than 20,000 square feet.

▪Freestanding – property locations that are not attached to the primary complex of buildings that comprise the mall shopping center.

▪Outparcel – land and freestanding developments, such as retail stores, banks and restaurants, which are generally on the periphery of our properties.

Operating Strategy

We operate a diverse portfolio of dynamic properties including enclosed regional malls, outlet centers, lifestyle centers and open-air centers. Our locations are in strong mid-tier markets with a focus in the growing southeast and midwest. Nearly 30% of our 2022 same-center net operating income ("NOI") was generated by non-mall assets. Our primary objective is to operate our portfolio to maximize the long-term value of our company by generating increasing levels of NOI, and improving free cash flow through a variety of methods as further discussed below.

NOI is a non-GAAP measure. For a description of NOI, a reconciliation from net income (loss) to NOI, and an explanation of why we believe this is a useful performance measure, see Non-GAAP Measure – Same-center Net Operating Income in “Results of Operations.”

Internal Growth

We look to generate internal growth through a variety of strategies. We incorporate contractual rent increases in our leases and negotiate increases in rental rates as leases mature, when possible. We aggressively pursue new tenants to maintain and grow occupancy, enhance our merchandising mix and improve the credit quality of our tenant base. We actively manage our properties including a focus on controlling operating expenses with a goal of maintaining or improving operating margins and enhancing cash flows, while maintaining a high-quality customer experience. We pursue opportunities to generate ancillary revenues at our properties when space is available for shorter terms through temporary leases and license agreements, as well as advertising including sponsorships and promotional activities. These programs allow us to maximize revenues in our centers during downtime between permanent leases, as well as monetize other aspects of the property.

Asset Densification

Our strategy of owning a diverse portfolio of dynamic properties in strong mid-tier markets has served the company well as CBL’s dominant locations generate significant demand from retail and non-retail users alike. We actively evaluate unused parking fields and available land for primarily non-retail densification projects, which provides us with the opportunity to capitalize on the embedded equity value of our land and increase the overall value of our properties. We believe the addition of non-retail users drives new and additional traffic and sales to our centers, which may enhance their dominant position in the market.

Through redevelopment we capitalize on opportunities to increase the productivity of previously occupied space and enhance the overall value of the centers through re-tenanting and/or changing the use of the space, as well as aesthetic upgrades. Redevelopments may result from acquiring or regaining possession of Anchor space (such as former department stores) and re-leasing to a single user, subdividing it into multiple spaces or razing the building for new development. When evaluating a redevelopment project, we review the stand-alone cost and returns, terminal value, co-tenancy, as well as the impact that the project and new tenant(s) is expected to have on the rest of the property including the aesthetic impact and improvements to traffic, sales and leasing demand.

See Liquidity and Capital Resources section in Item 7 of this Annual Report for information on the projects completed during 2022 and under construction at December 31, 2022.

Active Portfolio Management and Asset Recycling

We actively manage our asset base with the goal of enhancing the overall quality and value of our portfolio. We regularly review our portfolio to identify assets that no longer fit our strategy or where we believe it appropriate to redeploy resources into investments with higher growth or higher return opportunities. We also selectively acquire properties, including available anchors or parcels, we believe will provide resilient cash flows or that can appreciate in value by increasing NOI through our redevelopment, leasing and management expertise.

Balance Sheet Strategy

Our balance sheet strategy is focused on reducing overall debt, extending our debt maturity schedule, limiting exposure to recourse loans and lowering our overall cost of borrowings to limit maturity risk, improve free cash flow and enhance enterprise value.

We also pursue opportunities to improve the terms of our secured property-level, mortgage loans including refinancing loans at lower interest rates and longer-term maturities. We are exploring refinancing opportunities in the open lending market, as appropriate, in addition to working with our current lenders toward favorable modifications of existing loans.

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)/Green Building Practices

CBL’s ESG efforts are spearheaded by the ESG Team, a dedicated task force that focuses on ESG factors including Sustainability, Social Governance and Corporate Governance as well as reporting to CBL’s Board, and publicly on our website and in public filings. The members that make up this committee represent various departments within CBL, such as Management, Investor Relations, People & Culture, Public Relations and Operations Services. The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for oversight of the Company’s ESG efforts. Part of our efforts includes regularly reviewing existing policies and procedures to include current best practices. More information on our sustainability, diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging ("DEIB"), social responsibility and community involvement initiatives is available in the Human Capital section below and on dedicated web pages at cblproperties.com/about. The information on our web site is not, and should not be considered, a part of this Form 10-K.

Environmental Matters

A discussion of the current effects and potential impacts on our business and properties of compliance with federal, state and local environmental regulations is presented in Item 1A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K under the subheading “Risks Related to Real Estate Investments and Our Business.”

Competition

Our properties compete with various shopping facilities in attracting retailers to lease space. In addition, retailers at our properties face competition from discount shopping centers, outlet centers, wholesale clubs, direct mail, television shopping networks, the internet and other retail shopping developments. The extent of the retail and non-retail competition varies from market to market. We work aggressively to attract customers through marketing promotions and social media campaigns. Many of our retailers have adopted an omni-channel approach which leverages sales through both digital and traditional retailing channels.

Seasonality

The shopping center business is, to some extent, seasonal in nature with tenants typically achieving the highest levels of sales during the fourth quarter due to the holiday season, which generally results in higher percentage rent income in the fourth quarter. Additionally, the Malls earn most of their “temporary” rents (rents from short-term tenants) during the holiday period. Thus, occupancy levels and revenue production are generally the highest in the fourth quarter of each year. Results of operations realized in any one quarter may not be indicative of the results likely to be experienced over the course of our fiscal year.

Equity

Common Stock

Our authorized common stock consists of 200,000,000 shares at $0.001 par value per share. We had 31,780,109 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2022. In connection with the Company's emergence from Chapter 11 reorganization on the Effective Date, all equity interests of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date were deemed cancelled, discharged and of no force or effect.

Preferred Stock

Our authorized preferred stock consists of 15,000,000 shares at $0.001 par value per share. No shares of preferred stock were issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2022.

Financial Information about Segments

See Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements for information about our reportable segments.

Human Capital

We believe our people are critical to the success of our Company. We are committed to providing a work environment that attracts, develops, and retains high-performing team members and to promoting a culture that allows each team member to feel respected, included and empowered. We engage with our employees regularly and in 2022 completed an employee engagement assessment. The survey netted a 74% response rate and secured CBL Great Place to Work Certification™.

CBL does not have any employees other than its statutory officers. As of December 31, 2022, our Management Company had 395 full-time and 77 part-time employees that represented the following demographics:

▪19% racially diverse and 62% female.

▪We are proud that 4% of our workforce served in the military.

5

▪Within the team, 6% self-identify as disabled.

▪Generationally, the population is represented across the Gen X (32%), Gen Y (43%), and Baby Boomer (20%) array with an emerging Gen Z (4%) and a contribution by Traditionalists (<1%).

CBL benefits from low voluntary turnover which declined from 12% to 8% with 85% who left voluntarily completing our exit interview process rendering a net promoter score of 93%. While we support freedom of association, we enjoy direct relationships as none of our employees are represented by a union.

To attract, retain and develop our high-performing team members, we offer compensation programs that include a mix of salaries, variable incentive bonuses and equity-based awards. To help ensure pay for performance alignment, CBL team members and their direct managers participate in an annual performance evaluation process. The evaluation process includes interactive goal setting and feedback designed to enhance performance, engagement, and professional development. In 2022, an externally conducted compensation analysis reflected a 0.00% pay gap based on gender and 0.00% based on race. Our compensation programs are supplemented by comprehensive employment benefits as well as training and educational programs. Certain benefits are also available to part-time CBL team members.

We provide our team with learning and development opportunities including conferences, leadership programs, and other ad hoc training programs. Programs cover a variety of topics such as career development and skills training; health, well-being, and safety; DEIB; and more. We expanded these training efforts in 2022 to include new technology and tools for self-guided learning featuring on-demand educational content across a variety of topics. We also mandate annual cyber-security training for all full-time employees. In 2022, CBL team members completed 6,201 hours of training.

We are expanding outreach efforts in recruiting through several new partnerships including:

▪Partnering with Transition Overwatch, which targets Veterans.

▪Participating in ICSC’s Launch Academy and Project Destined internship opportunities for 2023, which target underrepresented groups in our industry.

▪Participating in Chattanooga-based STEP-UP internship opportunities with underrepresented area high school students.

We have long maintained several employee-led programs, including CBL Community, CBL Cares, CBL Fit and CBL Social.

CBL Community is focused on initiatives that emphasize the importance and focus we place on people, the driving force behind CBL. CBL Community is pursuing internal and external endeavors to improve organizational impacts on diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (“DEIB”), through education, engagement initiatives, and the creation of opportunities and partnerships with underrepresented groups. To support these efforts, we have engaged a third-party consulting firm that specializes in inclusive leadership practices. To further these goals, in 2022 CBL Community introduced Fireside Chats, which allow team members to learn about various DEIB topics from their peers. Additionally, in 2022 initial groups of senior leadership and certain CBL team members completed DEIB training in accordance with the Company’s ESG Policy and DEIB Strategic Plan as overseen by the DEIB Steering Committee that is chaired by our chief executive officer. Finally, the entire CBL team will participate in Unconscious Bias training in the first quarter of 2023.

CBL Cares partners with and supports local charitable organizations that contribute to the growth and development of the communities we serve. One of our goals for 2022 was to increase the number of hours CBL team members volunteer through our CBL Cares volunteer program. We are pleased to have met this goal, with team members volunteering 924 hours with non-profit organizations, an increase over 2021. In total, through volunteer hours, corporate donations and CBL Cares funds, we provided support valued at nearly $200,000 to organizations across our portfolio that work to meet the diverse needs of our communities. Lastly, through our annual United Way workplace campaign as well as a special monetary and in-kind gift commemorating United Way’s 100th birthday, our team contributed more than $138,000 to United Way.

CBL Fit provides advocacy of wellness for the whole person at work and CBL Social provides engagement opportunities and interconnectivity through team-based events.

•Real property investments are subject to various risks, many of which are beyond our control, which could cause declines in the revenues and/or underlying value of one or more of our properties. These include, among others:

➣Adverse changes to national, regional and local economic conditions, including increased volatility in the capital and credit markets, as well as changes in consumer confidence and consumer spending patterns.

➣Possible inability to lease space in our properties on favorable terms, or at all.

➣Potential loss of one or more significant tenants, due to bankruptcies or consolidations in the retail industry.

➣Local real estate market conditions, and the illiquidity of real estate investments.

➣Adverse changes that cause us not to proceed with certain developments, redevelopments or expansions.

➣Increased operating costs, such as repairs and maintenance, real property taxes, utility rates and insurance.

➣Adverse changes in governmental regulations and related costs, including potential significant costs related to compliance with environmental laws and disclosure requirements.

➣Competition from other retail facilities, and from alternatives to traditional retail such as online shopping.

•Certain of our properties are subject to ownership interests held by third parties, whose interests may conflict with ours.

•Inflation continues to impact our financial condition and results of operations.

•Increased expenses, decreased occupancy rates, tenants converting to gross leases and requesting deferrals and rent abatements may not allow us to recover the majority of our CAM, real estate taxes and other operating expenses.

•Bankruptcy of joint venture partners could impose delays and costs on us with respect to jointly owned retail properties.

•Any significant resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic or a similar threat, and governmental responses thereto, could once again materially and adversely impact or disrupt our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance, as could any future outbreak of another highly infectious or contagious disease.

•We face possible risks associated with climate change.

•Possible terrorist activity or other acts of violence could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

•Social unrest and acts of vandalism or violence could adversely affect our business operations.

•Our properties may be subject to impairment charges which could adversely affect our financial results.

•While cybersecurity attacks, to date, have not materially impacted our financial results, future cyber attacks, cyber intrusions or other disruptions of our information technology networks could disrupt our operations, compromise confidential information and adversely impact our financial condition.

7

•Pending or potential future litigation could distract our officers from attending to the Company’s business and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.

•Uninsured losses could adversely affect us, and in the future our insurance may not cover acts of terrorism.

•Our bankruptcy filing, from which we emerged in 2021, may adversely affect our business.

•Our historical financial information may not be indicative of our future financial performance.

Risks Related to Debt and Financial Markets

•A deterioration of the capital and credit markets could adversely affect our ability to access funds and the capital needed to refinance debt or obtain new debt.

•Our indebtedness is substantial and could impair our ability to obtain additional financing.

•Rising interest rates could both increase our borrowing costs, thereby adversely affecting our cash flows and the amounts available for distributions to our stockholders, and decrease our stock price, if investors seek higher yields through other investments.

•We may be adversely affected by the discontinuation of LIBOR.

•The agreements governing our debt contain various covenants that impose restrictions on us that may affect our ability to operate our business.

•Federal and state statutes allow courts, under specific circumstances, to void guarantees and require holders of indebtedness and lenders to return payments received from guarantors.

Risks Related to Dividends and Our Stock

•We currently are not eligible to register the offer and sale of securities on SEC Form S-3. We intend to regain eligibility to use Form S-3 as soon as is practicable; however, we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to regain eligibility.

•We cannot assure you of our ability to pay dividends or distributions in the future or the amount of any dividends or distributions.

•Our ability to pay dividends on our common stock depends on the distributions we receive from our Operating Partnership, through which we conduct substantially all our business.

Risks Related to Geographic Concentrations

•Our properties are located principally in the southeastern and midwestern United States, so our business is subject generally to economic conditions in these regions and, in particular, to adverse economic developments affecting the operating results of our properties in our five largest markets.

Risks Related to Federal Income Tax Laws

•We conduct a portion of our business through taxable REIT subsidiaries, which are subject to certain tax risks.

•Complying with REIT requirements might cause us to forego otherwise attractive opportunities, and failing to qualify as a REIT would reduce our funds available for distribution to stockholders.

•Transfers of our capital stock to any person in excess of the ownership limits necessary to maintain our status as a REIT would be deemed void ab initio, and those shares would automatically be transferred to the Company as trustee of a charitable trust.

•We must satisfy minimum distribution requirements to maintain our status as a REIT, which may limit the amount of cash available for use in growing our business.

•Transfers or issuances of equity may impair our ability to utilize the existing tax basis in our assets, our federal income tax net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes.

Risks Related to Our Organizational Structure

•The ownership limit described above, as well as certain provisions in our Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (our “Certificate of Incorporation”) and our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws (our “Bylaws”), may hinder any attempt to acquire us.

8

•Our Certificate of Incorporation contains a provision renouncing our interest and expectancy in certain corporate opportunities identified by our non‐employee directors and their affiliates.

•The shareholders’ rights plan adopted by our board of directors, which expires on September 8, 2023, may discourage a third party from acquiring us in a manner that might result in a premium price to our shareholders.

RISKS RELATED TO REAL ESTATE INVESTMENTS AND OUR BUSINESS

Real property investments are subject to various risks, many of which are beyond our control, which could cause declines in the operating revenues and/or the underlying value of one or more of our properties.

A number of factors may decrease the income generated by a retail shopping center property, including:

•national, regional and local economic climates, which may be negatively impacted by loss of jobs, production slowdowns, inflation, adverse weather conditions, natural disasters, acts of violence, war, riots or terrorism, declines in residential real estate activity and other factors which tend to reduce consumer spending on retail goods;

•pandemic outbreaks, including COVID-19, or the threat of pandemic outbreaks, which could cause customers of our tenants to avoid public places where large crowds are in attendance, such as shopping centers and related entertainment, hotel, office or restaurant properties operated by our tenants;

•adverse changes in levels of consumer spending, consumer confidence and seasonal spending (especially during the holiday season when many retailers generate a disproportionate amount of their annual profits);

•local real estate conditions, such as an oversupply of, or reduction in demand for, retail space or retail goods, and the availability and creditworthiness of current and prospective tenants;

•increased operating costs, such as increases in repairs and maintenance, real property taxes, utility rates and insurance premiums;

•delays or cost increases associated with the opening of new properties or redevelopment and expansion of properties, due to higher than estimated construction costs, cost overruns, delays in receiving zoning, occupancy or other governmental approvals, lack of availability of materials and labor, weather conditions, and similar factors which may be outside our ability to control;

•perceptions by retailers or shoppers of the safety, convenience and attractiveness of the shopping center; and

•the convenience and quality of competing retail properties and other retailing options, such as the internet and the adverse impact of online sales.

In addition, other factors may adversely affect the value of our properties without affecting their current revenues, including:

•an environment of rising interest rates, which could negatively impact both the value of commercial real estate such as retail shopping centers and the overall retail climate;

•adverse changes in governmental regulations, such as local zoning and land use laws, environmental regulations or local tax structures that could inhibit our ability to proceed with development, expansion or renovation activities that otherwise would be beneficial to our properties;

•potential environmental or other legal liabilities that reduce the amount of funds available to us for investment in our properties; and

•any inability to obtain sufficient financing (including construction financing, permanent debt, secured and unsecured notes issuances, lines of credit and term loans), or the inability to obtain such financing on commercially favorable terms, to fund repayment of maturing loans, new developments, acquisitions, and property redevelopments, expansions and renovations which otherwise would benefit our properties.

Illiquidity of real estate investments could significantly affect our ability to respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties and harm our financial condition.

Substantially all our consolidated assets consist of investments in real estate properties. Because real estate investments are relatively illiquid, our ability to quickly sell one or more properties in our portfolio in response to changing economic, financial and investment conditions is limited. The real estate market is affected by many factors, such as general economic conditions, availability of financing, interest rates and other factors, including supply and demand for space, that are beyond our control. We cannot predict whether we will be able to sell any property for the price or on the terms we set, or whether any price or other terms offered by a prospective purchaser would be acceptable to us. We also cannot predict the length of time needed to find a willing purchaser and to close the sale of a property. In addition, current economic and capital market conditions might make it more difficult for us to sell properties or might adversely affect the price we receive for properties that we do sell, as prospective buyers might experience increased costs of debt financing or other difficulties in obtaining debt financing.

Moreover, there are some limitations under federal income tax laws applicable to REITs that limit our ability to sell assets. In addition, because many of our properties are mortgaged to secure our debts, we may not be able to obtain a release of a lien on a mortgaged property without the payment of the associated debt and/or a substantial prepayment penalty, or transfer of debt to a buyer, which restricts our ability to dispose of a property, even though the sale might otherwise be desirable. Furthermore, the number of prospective buyers interested in purchasing shopping centers is limited. Therefore, if we want to sell one or more of our properties, we may not be able to dispose of it in the desired time period and may receive less consideration than we originally invested in the property.

Before a property can be sold, we may be required to make expenditures to correct defects or to make improvements. We cannot assure you that we will have funds available to correct those defects or to make those improvements, and if we cannot do so, we might not be able to sell the property, or might be required to sell the property on unfavorable terms. In acquiring a property, we might agree to provisions that materially restrict us from selling that property for a period of time or impose other restrictions, such as limitations on the amount of debt that can be placed or repaid on that property. These factors and any others that would impede our ability to respond to adverse changes in the performance of our properties could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

We may elect not to proceed with certain developments, redevelopments or expansion projects once they have been undertaken, resulting in charges that could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for the period in which the charge is taken.

We will incur various risks in connection with any developments, redevelopments or property expansions, including the risk that developments, redevelopments or expansion opportunities explored by us may be abandoned for various reasons including, but not limited to, credit disruptions that require the Company to conserve its cash until the capital markets stabilize or alternative credit or funding arrangements can be made. Developments, redevelopments or expansions also include the risk that construction costs of a project may exceed original estimates, possibly making the project unprofitable. Other risks include the risk that we may not be able to refinance construction loans which are generally with full recourse to us, the risk that occupancy rates and rents at a completed project will not meet projections and will be insufficient to make the project profitable, and the risk that we will not be able to obtain Anchor, mortgage lender and property partner approvals for certain expansion activities.

When we elect not to proceed with a development opportunity, the development costs ordinarily are charged against income for the then-current period. Any such charge could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for the period in which the charge is taken.

Certain of our properties are subject to ownership interests held by third parties, whose interests may conflict with ours and thereby constrain us from taking actions concerning these properties which otherwise would be in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders.

We own partial interests in 7 malls, 5 outlet centers, 1 lifestyle center, 12 open-air centers, 2 office buildings, a hotel and a hotel development. Of those interests, 2 malls, 3 outlet centers, 3 open-air centers, a hotel and a hotel development are all owned by unconsolidated joint ventures and are managed by a property manager that is affiliated with the third-party partner, which receives a fee for its services. The third-party partner of each of these properties controls the cash flow distributions, although our approval is required for certain major decisions. We have interests in two outlet centers that are owned by consolidated joint ventures and managed by a property manager that is affiliated with the third-party partner, which receives a fee for its services.

10

Where we serve as managing general partner (or equivalent) of the entities that own our properties, we may have certain fiduciary responsibilities to the other owners of those entities. In certain cases, the approval or consent of the other owners is required before we may sell, finance, expand or make other significant changes in the operations of such properties. To the extent such approvals or consents are required, we may experience difficulty in, or may be prevented from, implementing our plans with respect to expansion, development, financing or other similar transactions with respect to such properties.

With respect to those properties for which we do not serve as managing general partner (or equivalent), we do not have day-to-day operational control or control over certain major decisions, including leasing and the timing and amount of distributions, which could result in decisions by the managing entity that do not fully reflect our interests. This includes decisions relating to the requirements that we must satisfy in order to maintain our status as a REIT for tax purposes. However, decisions relating to sales, expansion and disposition of all or substantially all of the assets and financings are subject to approval by the Operating Partnership.

Inflation has impacted and may continue to impact our financial condition and results of operations.

The 2022 annual rate of inflation in the U.S. was higher than at any point in recent years. Inflationary price increases could have an adverse effect on consumer spending, which could impact our tenants’ sales and, in turn, our tenants’ business operations. This could affect the amount of rent these tenants pay, including if their leases provide for percentage rent, and their ability to pay rent. Also, inflation has caused increases in operating expenses, which could increase occupancy costs for tenants and, to the extent that we are unable to recover operating expenses from tenants, could increase operating expenses for us. In addition, if the rate of inflation exceeds the scheduled rent increases included in our leases, then our net operating income and our profitability would decrease. Inflation has resulted in increases in market interest rates, which not only negatively impact consumer spending and tenant investment decisions, but also increases the borrowing costs associated with our existing or any future variable rate debt, to the extent such rates are not effectively hedged or fixed, or any future debt that we incur. Inflation might also inhibit our ability to obtain new financing or refinancing.

Increased operating expenses, decreased occupancy rates, tenants converting to gross leases and requesting deferrals and rent abatements may not allow us to recover the majority of our CAM, real estate taxes and other operating expenses from our tenants, which could adversely affect our financial position, results of operations and funds available for future distributions.

Energy costs, repairs, maintenance and capital improvements to common areas of our properties, janitorial services, administrative, property and liability insurance costs and security costs are typically allocable to our properties’ tenants. Our lease agreements typically provide that the tenant is responsible for a portion of the CAM and other operating expenses. The majority of our current leases require an equal periodic tenant reimbursement amount for our cost recoveries which serves to fix our tenants’ CAM contributions to us. In these cases, a tenant will pay a fixed amount, or a set expense reimbursement amount, subject to annual increases, regardless of the actual amount of operating expenses. The tenant’s payment remains the same regardless of whether operating expenses increase or decrease, causing us to be responsible for any excess amounts or to benefit from any declines. As a result, the CAM and tenant reimbursements that we receive may or may not allow us to recover a substantial portion of these operating costs.

There is also a trend of more tenants moving to gross leases with periodic increases, which provide that the tenant pays a single specified amount, with no additional payments for reimbursements of the tenant’s portion of operating expenses. As a result, we are responsible for any increases in operating expenses, and benefit from any decreases in operating expenses.

Additionally, in the event that our properties are not fully occupied, we would be required to pay the portion of any operating, redevelopment or renovation expenses allocable to the vacant space(s) that would otherwise typically be paid by the residing tenant(s).

Bankruptcy of joint venture partners could impose delays and costs on us with respect to the jointly owned retail properties.

In addition to the possible effects on our joint ventures of our having gone through the bankruptcy process, the bankruptcy of one of the other investors in any of our jointly owned shopping centers could materially and adversely affect the relevant property or properties. Under the bankruptcy laws, we would be precluded from taking some actions affecting the estate of the other investor without prior approval of the bankruptcy court, which would, in most cases, entail prior notice to other parties and a hearing in the bankruptcy court. At a minimum, the requirement to obtain court approval may delay the actions we would or might want to take. If the relevant joint venture through which we have invested in a property has incurred recourse obligations, the discharge in bankruptcy of one of the other investors might result in our ultimate liability for a greater portion of those obligations than we would otherwise bear.

11

We may be unable to lease space in our properties on favorable terms, or at all.

Our results of operations depend on our ability to continue to lease space in our properties, including vacant space and re-leasing space in properties where leases are expiring, optimizing our tenant mix, or leasing properties on economically favorable terms. Because we have leases expiring annually, we are continually focused on leasing our properties. Similarly, we are pursuing a strategy of replacing expiring short-term leases with long-term leases. For more information on lease expirations see Mall, Lifestyle Center and Outlet Center Lease Expirations and Other Property Type Lease Expirations.

There can be no assurance that our leases will be renewed or that vacant space will be re-leased at rates equal to or above the current average net effective rental rates or that substantial rent abatements, tenant improvements, early termination rights or below market renewal options will not be offered to attract new tenants or retain existing tenants. If the rental rates decrease, if our existing tenants do not renew their leases or if we do not re-lease a significant portion of our available space and space for which leases will expire, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Any significant resurgence of the COVID-19 pandemic or a similar threat, and governmental responses thereto, could once again materially and adversely impact or disrupt our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance, as could any future outbreak of another highly infectious or contagious disease.

Over the past three years, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a material negative impact on economic and market conditions around the world, and specifically in the retail real estate sector. As the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continued to evolve, governments and other authorities imposed measures intended to control its spread, including restrictions on freedom of movement, group gatherings and business operations such as travel bans, border closings, business closures, quarantines, stay-at-home orders, shelter-in-place orders, density limitations and social distancing measures. While these restrictions have long since been lifted, and the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic appears to be much improved, it remains possible that a significant resurgence of the threat from COVID-19, or any similar future pandemic, could result in governments and other authorities reinstituting these measures or imposing new, more restrictive measures, in response to our tenants’ and consumers’ perception of the related risks.

Demand for retail space and the profitability of our properties depends, in part, on the ability and willingness of tenants to enter into and perform obligations under leases. Any significant resurgence of COVID-19, or a similar future pandemic, could once again reduce the willingness of customers to visit our properties and adversely impact our tenants’ businesses based on many factors, including local transmission rates, the emergence of new variants, the development, availability, distribution, effectiveness and acceptance of existing and new vaccines, and the effectiveness and availability of cures or treatments. Further, demand could remain reduced due to heightened sensitivity to risks associated with the transmission of COVID-19 or any other pandemic diseases. Although consumers’ risk tolerance has evolved and tenants and consumers alike took measures to adapt to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as the addition of services like curbside pickup, the impact of these adaptations continues to evolve and there is no guarantee that retail will ever fully return to pre-pandemic levels.

The continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, or a future pandemic, on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and make distributions to our shareholders could depend on additional factors, including:

•the financial condition and viability of our tenants, and their ability or willingness to pay rent in full;

•state, local, federal and industry-initiated tenant relief efforts that may adversely affect landlords, including us, and their ability to collect rent and/or enforce remedies for the failure to pay rent;

•the increased popularity and utilization of e-commerce;

•our ability to renew leases or re-lease available space in our properties on favorable terms or at all, including as a result of a deterioration in the economic and market conditions in the markets in which we own properties or due to restrictions intended to prevent the spread of COVID-19 or any similar future pandemic, including any additional government mandated closures of businesses that frustrate our leasing activities;

•a severe and prolonged disruption and instability in the global financial markets, including the debt and equity capital markets, all of which have already been experienced and which may continue to affect our or our tenants’ ability to access capital necessary to fund our or their respective business operations or repay, refinance or renew maturing liabilities on a timely basis, on attractive terms, or at all and may adversely affect the valuation of financial assets and liabilities, any of which could affect our and our tenants’ ability to meet liquidity and capital expenditure requirements;

12

•a reduction in the cash flows generated by our properties and the values of our properties that could result in impairments or limit our ability to dispose of them at attractive prices or obtain debt financing secured by our properties;

•the complete or partial closure of one or more of our tenants’ manufacturing facilities or distribution centers, temporary or long-term disruption in our tenants’ supply chains from local and international suppliers and/or delays in the delivery of our tenants’ inventory, any of which could reduce or eliminate our tenants’ sales, cause the temporary closure of our tenants’ businesses, and/or result in their bankruptcy or insolvency;

•a negative impact on consumer discretionary spending caused by high unemployment levels, reduced economic activity or a severe or prolonged recession;

•our and our tenants’ ability to manage our respective businesses to the extent our and their management or personnel (including on-site employees) are impacted in significant numbers by COVID-19 or any future pandemic or are otherwise not willing, available or allowed to conduct work, including any impact on our tenants’ ability to deliver timely information to us that is necessary for us to make effective decisions; and

•our and our tenants’ ability to ensure business continuity in the event our or our tenants’ continuity of operations plan is (i) not effective or improperly implemented or deployed or (ii) compromised due to increased cyber and remote access activity due to COVID-19 or any future pandemic.

To the extent any of these risks and uncertainties adversely impact us in the ways described above or otherwise, they may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described herein.

We face possible risks associated with climate change.

We may become subject to laws or regulations related to climate change, which could cause our business, results of operations and financial condition to be impacted adversely. The federal government has enacted, and some of the states and localities in which we operate may enact, certain climate change laws and regulations or have begun regulating carbon footprints and greenhouse gas emissions. Although these laws and regulations have not had any known material adverse effects on our business to date, they could result in substantial costs, including compliance costs, increased energy costs, retrofit costs and construction costs, including monitoring and reporting costs, and capital expenditures for environmental control facilities and other new equipment. We have implemented strategies to support our continued effort to reduce energy and water consumption, greenhouse gas emissions and waste production across our portfolio. We cannot predict how future laws and regulations, or future interpretations of current laws and regulations, related to climate change will affect our business, results of operations and financial condition. Additionally, the potential physical impacts of climate change on our operations are highly uncertain, and would be particular to the geographic circumstances in areas in which we operate. These may include changes to global weather patterns, which could include local changes in rainfall and storm patterns and intensities, water shortages, changing sea levels and changing temperature averages or extremes. These impacts may adversely affect our properties, our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Additionally, there has been increasing public focus by investors, environmental activists, the media and governmental and nongovernmental organizations on a variety of environmental, social and other sustainability matters. We may make commitments relating to sustainability matters that affect us, including the design and implementation of specific risk mitigation strategic initiatives relating to sustainability. If we are not effective in addressing environmental, social and other sustainability matters affecting our business, or setting and meeting relevant sustainability goals, our reputation may suffer.

13

We may incur significant costs related to compliance with environmental laws, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, cash flows and the funds available to us to pay dividends.

Under various federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations, a current or previous owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of petroleum, certain hazardous or toxic substances on, under or in such real estate. Such laws typically impose such liability without regard to whether the owner or operator knew of, or was responsible for, the presence of such substances. The costs of remediation or removal of such substances may be substantial. The presence of such substances, or the failure to promptly remove or remediate such substances, may adversely affect the owner’s or operator’s ability to lease or sell such real estate or to borrow using such real estate as collateral. Persons who arrange for the disposal or treatment of hazardous or toxic substances may also be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of such substances at the disposal or treatment facility, regardless of whether such facility is owned or operated by such person. Certain laws also impose requirements on conditions and activities that may affect the environment or the impact of the environment on human health. Failure to comply with such requirements could result in the imposition of monetary penalties (in addition to the costs to achieve compliance) and potential liabilities to third parties. Among other things, certain laws require abatement or removal of friable and certain non-friable asbestos-containing materials in the event of demolition or certain renovations or remodeling. Certain laws regarding asbestos-containing materials require building owners and lessees, among other things, to notify and train certain employees working in areas known or presumed to contain asbestos-containing materials. Certain laws also impose liability for release of asbestos-containing materials into the air and third parties may seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal injury or property damage associated with asbestos-containing materials. In connection with the ownership and operation of properties, we may be potentially liable for all or a portion of such costs or claims.

All our properties (but not properties for which we hold an option to purchase but do not yet own) have been subject to Phase I environmental assessments or updates of existing Phase I environmental assessments. Such assessments generally consisted of a visual inspection of the properties, review of federal and state environmental databases and certain information regarding historic uses of the property and adjacent areas and the preparation and issuance of written reports. Some of our properties contain, or contained, underground storage tanks used for storing petroleum products or wastes typically associated with automobile service or other operations conducted at our properties. Certain of our properties contain, or contained, dry-cleaning establishments utilizing solvents. Where believed to be warranted, samplings of building materials or subsurface investigations were undertaken. At certain of our properties, where warranted by the conditions, we have developed and implemented an operations and maintenance program that establishes operating procedures with respect to asbestos-containing materials. The cost associated with the development and implementation of such programs was not material. We have also obtained environmental insurance coverage at certain of our properties.

We believe that our properties are in compliance in all material respects with all federal, state and local ordinances and regulations regarding the handling, discharge and emission of hazardous or toxic substances. As of December 31, 2022, we have recorded in our consolidated financial statements a liability of $2.6 million related to potential future asbestos abatement activities at our properties which are not expected to have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. We have not been notified by any governmental authority, and are not otherwise aware, of any material noncompliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances in connection with any of our present or former properties. Therefore, we have not recorded any liability related to hazardous or toxic substances. Nevertheless, it is possible that the environmental assessments available to us do not reveal all potential environmental liabilities. It is also possible that subsequent investigations will identify material contamination, that adverse environmental conditions have arisen subsequent to the performance of the environmental assessments, or that there are material environmental liabilities of which management is unaware. Moreover, no assurances can be given that (i) future laws, ordinances or regulations will not impose any material environmental liability or (ii) the current environmental condition of our properties has not been or will not be affected by tenants and occupants of our properties, by the condition of properties in the vicinity of our properties or by third parties unrelated to us, the Operating Partnership or the relevant property’s partnership.

Possible terrorist activity or other acts of violence could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Future terrorist attacks in the United States, and other acts of violence, including domestic or international terrorism or war, might result in declining consumer confidence and spending, which could harm the demand for goods and services offered by our tenants and the values of our properties, and might adversely affect an investment in our securities. A decrease in retail demand could make it difficult for us to renew or re-lease our properties at lease rates equal to or above historical rates and, to the extent our tenants are affected, could adversely affect their ability to continue to meet obligations under their existing leases. Terrorist activities also could directly affect the value of our properties through damage, destruction or loss. Furthermore, terrorist acts might result in increased volatility in national and international financial markets, which could limit our access to capital or increase our cost of obtaining capital.

14

Social unrest and acts of vandalism or violence could adversely affect our business operations.

Our business may be adversely affected by social, political, and economic instability, unrest, or disruption, including protests, demonstrations, strikes, riots, civil disturbance, disobedience, insurrection and looting in geographic regions where our properties are located. Such events may result in property damage and destruction and in restrictions, curfews, or other governmental actions that could give rise to significant changes in economic conditions and cycles, which may adversely affect our financial condition and operations.

Over the past three years, there have been demonstrations and protests, some of which involved violence, looting, arson and property destruction, in cities throughout the United States. While the majority of protests have been peaceful, looting, vandalism and fires have taken place in certain places, which led to the imposition of mandatory curfews and, in some locations, deployment of the National Guard. Governmental actions taken to protect people and property, including curfews and restrictions on business operations, may disrupt operations, harm perceptions of personal well-being and increase the need for additional expenditures on security resources. The effect and frequency of the demonstrations, protests or other factors is uncertain, and we cannot assure there will not be further political or social instability in the future or that there will not be other events that could lead to further social, political and economic instability. If such events or disruptions persist for a prolonged period of time, our overall business and results of operations may be adversely affected.

Clauses in leases with certain tenants in our properties may include inducements, such as reduced rent and tenant allowance payments or other clauses such as co-tenancy or sales-based kick-out provisions, which can reduce our rents and Funds From Operations (“FFO”), and adversely impact our financial condition and results of operation and the value of our properties. This impact could be exacerbated by the loss of one or more significant tenants, due to bankruptcies or as a result of consolidations in the retail industry.

We could be adversely affected by the bankruptcy, early termination, sales performance, or closing of tenants and Anchors. Certain of our lease agreements include co-tenancy and/or sales-based kick-out provisions which allow a tenant to pay a reduced rent amount and, in certain instances, terminate the lease, if we fail to maintain certain occupancy levels or retain specified named Anchors, or if the tenant does not achieve certain specified sales targets. If occupancy or tenant sales do not meet or fall below certain thresholds, rents we are entitled to receive from our tenants could be reduced. Additionally, some tenants may have rent abatement clauses that delay rent commencement or reduce contractual rents for a prolonged period of time after initial occupancy. The effect of these clauses reduces our rents and FFO while they are applicable. We expect to continue to offer co-tenancy and rent abatement clauses in the future to attract tenants to our properties. As a result, our financial condition and results of operations may be adversely impacted.

The bankruptcy of a tenant could result in the termination of its lease and potentially trigger co-tenancy or other clauses in other tenants’ leases, which would lower the amount of cash generated by that property. Replacing tenants with better performing, emerging retailers may take longer than our historical experience of re-tenanting due to their lack of infrastructure and limited experience in opening stores as well as the significant competition for such emerging brands. In addition, when a department store operating as an Anchor at one of our properties has ceased operating, in certain instances we have experienced difficulty and delay and incurred significant expense in replacing the Anchor, re-tenanting, or otherwise re-merchandising the use of the Anchor space. This difficulty can be, and in some instances has been, exacerbated if the Anchor space is owned by a third party and we are not able to acquire the space, if the third party’s plans to lease or redevelop the space do not align with our interests or the third party does not act in a timely manner to lease or redevelop the space. In addition, the Anchor’s closing may, and in some instances has, lead to reduced customer traffic and lower mall tenant sales. As a result, we may, and in some instances have, also experience difficulty or delay in leasing spaces in areas adjacent to the vacant Anchor space. The early termination or closing of tenants or Anchors for reasons other than bankruptcy could have a similar impact on the operations of our properties, although in the case of early terminations we may benefit in the short-term from lease termination income.

Certain traditional department stores have experienced challenges including limited opportunities for new investment/openings and declining sales, which lead department stores to close stores or seek rent reductions. Department stores’ market share is declining, and their ability to drive traffic has substantially decreased. Despite traffic to our Malls, Lifestyle Centers and Outlet Centers traditionally being driven by department store Anchors, in the event of a need for replacement, it has become necessary to consider non-department store Anchors. Certain of these non-department store Anchors may demand higher allowances or other less favorable terms than a standard mall tenant due to the nature of the services/products they provide.

We are in a competitive business.

There are numerous shopping facilities that compete with our properties in attracting retailers to lease space. Our ability to attract tenants to our properties and lease space is important to our success, and difficulties in doing so can materially impact our properties’ performance. The existence of competing shopping centers could have a material adverse impact on our ability to develop, redevelop or operate properties, lease space to desirable Anchors and tenants, and on the level of rents that can be achieved. In addition, retailers at our properties face continued competition from shopping through various means and channels, including via the internet, lifestyle centers, value and outlet centers, wholesale and discount shopping clubs, and television shopping networks. Competition of this type could adversely affect our revenues and cash available for distribution to shareholders.

As new technologies emerge, the relationship among customers, retailers, and shopping centers are evolving on a rapid basis and we may not be able to adapt to such new technologies and relationships on a timely basis. Our relative size may limit the capital and resources we are willing to allocate to invest in strategic technology to enhance the mall experience, which may make our Malls relatively less desirable to anchors, mall tenants, and consumers. Additionally, a small but increasing number of tenants utilize our Malls as showrooms or as part of an omni-channel strategy (allowing customers to shop seamlessly through various sales channels). As a result, customers may make purchases through other sales channels during or immediately after visiting our Malls, with such sales not being captured currently in our tenant sales figures or monetized in our minimum or overage rents.

We compete with other major real estate investors with significant capital for attractive investment opportunities. These competitors include other REITs, investment banking firms, and private and institutional investors, some of whom have greater financial resources or have different investment criteria than we do. In particular, there is competition to acquire, develop, or redevelop highly productive retail properties. This could become even more severe as competitors gain size and economies of scale as a result of merger and consolidation activity. This competition may impair our ability to acquire, develop, or redevelop suitable properties, and to attract key retailers, on favorable terms in the future.

Our properties may be subject to impairment charges which could adversely affect our financial results.

We monitor events or changes in circumstances that could indicate the carrying value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. We use significant judgement in assessing events or circumstances which might indicate impairment, including but not limited to, changes in our intent to hold a long-lived asset over its previously estimated useful life. Changes in our intent to hold a long-lived asset has a significant impact on the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of a long-lived asset and whether a potential impairment loss shall be measured. When indicators of potential impairment are present that suggest that the carrying amounts of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, we assess the recoverability of the asset by determining whether the asset’s carrying value will be recovered through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected from our use and its eventual disposition. In the event that such undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, we adjust the carrying value of the long-lived asset to its estimated fair value and recognize an impairment loss. The estimated fair value is calculated based on the following information, in order of preference, depending upon availability: (Level 1) recently quoted market prices, (Level 2) market prices for comparable properties, or (Level 3) the present value of future cash flows, including estimated salvage value. Certain of our long-lived assets may be carried at more than an amount that could be realized in a current disposition transaction. Projections of expected future operating cash flows require that we estimate future market rental income amounts subsequent to expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, the number of months it takes to re-lease the property, and the number of years the property is held for investment, among other factors. As these assumptions are subject to economic and market uncertainties, they are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter the assumptions used or management’s estimates of future possible outcomes. Therefore, the future cash flows estimated in our impairment analyses may not be achieved.

Breaches or other adverse cybersecurity incidents on our systems or those of our service providers or business partners could expose us to liability and lead to the loss or compromise of our information, including confidential information, sensitive information and intellectual property, and could result in a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

As a regular part of our business operations, we rely on information technology systems and network infrastructure, including the internet, to process, transmit and store electronic information and to manage or support a variety of our business processes, including financial transactions and maintenance of records. We rely on our own systems and also outsource some of our business requirements through service providers and other business partners pursuant to agreements. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber attack or cyber intrusion, including by internal actors, computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Our IT networks and related systems and infrastructure – and those of our providers/partners – are essential to the operation of our business and our ability to perform day-to-day operations (including managing our building systems) and, in some cases, may be critical to the operations of certain of our tenants.

We have experienced adverse security incidents. All incidents experienced to date have been minor in scope and impact, were resolved quickly, had no material impact on the Company’s reputation, financial performance, customer or vendor relationships, and posed no material risk of potential litigation or regulatory investigations or actions. We expect unauthorized parties to continue to attempt to gain access to our systems or information, and/or those of our business partners and service providers. Cyber attacks targeting our infrastructure could result in a full or partial disruption of our operations, as well as those of our tenants.

A security incident, breach or other significant disruption involving our information technology networks and related systems could occur due to a virus or other harmful circumstance, intentional penetration or disruption of our information technology resources by a third party, natural disaster, hardware or software corruption or failure or error or poor product or vendor/developer selection (including a failure of security controls incorporated into or applied to such hardware or software), telecommunications system failure, service provider error or failure, intentional or unintentional personnel actions (including the failure to follow our security protocols), or lost connectivity to our networked resources. Such occurrences could disrupt the proper functioning of our networks and systems; result in disruption of business operations and loss of service to our tenants and customers; result in significantly decreased revenues; result in increased costs associated in obtaining and maintaining cybersecurity investigations and testing, as well as implementing protective measures and systems; result in increased insurance premiums and operating costs; result in misstated financial reports and/or missed reporting deadlines; result in our inability to properly monitor our compliance with the rules and regulations regarding our qualification as a REIT; result in the unauthorized access to, and destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or others, which others could use to compete against us or for disruptive, destructive or otherwise harmful purposes and outcomes; result in our inability to maintain the building systems relied upon by our tenants for the efficient use of their leased space; require significant management attention and resources to remedy any damages that result; subject us to claims for breach of contract, damages, credits, penalties or termination of leases or other agreements; subject us to regulatory investigations and actions; cause harm to our competitive position and business value; and damage our reputation among our tenants and investors generally. Moreover, cyber attacks perpetrated against our Anchors and tenants, including unauthorized access to customers’ credit card data and other confidential information, could subject us to significant litigation, liability and costs, adversely impact our reputation, or diminish consumer confidence and consumer spending and negatively impact our business.

The compromise of our or our business partners’ or service providers’ technology systems resulting in the loss, disclosure, misappropriation of, or access to, our information or that of our tenants, employees or business partners or failure to comply with ever-evolving regulatory obligations or contractual obligations with respect to such information could result in legal claims or proceedings, liability or regulatory penalties under laws protecting the privacy of personal information, disruption to our operations and damage to our reputation, any or all of which could adversely affect our business. The costs to remediate breaches and similar system compromises that do occur could be material. In addition, as cybercriminals become more sophisticated, the cost of proactive defensive measures continues to increase.

17

Although we and our service providers/business partners have implemented processes, procedures and controls to help mitigate these risks, there can be no assurance that these measures, as well as our increased awareness of the risk of cyber incidents, will be effective or that attempted or actual security incidents, breaches or system disruptions that could be damaging to us or others will not occur. Even the most well protected information, networks, systems and facilities remain potentially vulnerable because the techniques used in such attempted security breaches evolve and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, and in some cases are designed not to be detected and, in fact, may not be detected. Accordingly, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate security barriers or other preventative measures, and thus it is impossible for us to entirely mitigate this risk. Lasty, while we have cybersecurity insurance, damages and claims arising from such incidents may not be covered, or may exceed the amount of any insurance coverage.

Pending or potential future litigation could distract our officers from attending to the Company’s business and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.

Certain of the Company's officers and former directors have been named as defendants in a consolidated putative securities class action lawsuit (“Securities Class Action Litigation”). The complaint filed in the Securities Class Action Litigation alleges violations of the securities laws, including, among other things, that the defendants made certain materially false and misleading statements and omissions regarding the Company’s contingent liabilities, business, operations, and prospects. The plaintiffs seek compensatory damages and attorneys’ fees and costs, among other relief, but have not specified the amount of damages sought. Following a January 31, 2023 mediation before a private mediator, the parties to the Securities Class Action Litigation reached an agreement in principle to resolve the Securities Class Action Litigation, subject to documentation and court approval. See Item 3. Legal Proceedings for more information on the Securities Class Action Litigation.

We cannot assure you as to the outcome of these legal proceedings, including the amount of costs or other liabilities that will be incurred in connection with defending these claims or other claims that may arise in the future. To the extent that we incur material costs in connection with defending or pursuing these claims, or become subject to liability as a result of an adverse judgment or settlement of these claims, our results of operations and liquidity position could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, ongoing litigation may divert management’s attention and resources from the day-to-day operation of our business and cause reputational harm to us, either of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Declines in economic conditions, including increased volatility in the capital and credit markets, could adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.

An economic recession can result in extreme volatility and disruption of our capital and credit markets. The resulting economic environment may be affected by dramatic declines in the stock and housing markets, increases in foreclosures, unemployment and costs of living, as well as limited access to credit. This economic situation can, and most often will, impact consumer spending levels, which can result in decreased revenues for our tenants and related decreases in the values of our properties. A sustained economic downward trend could impact our tenants’ ability to meet their lease obligations due to poor operating results, lack of liquidity, bankruptcy or other reasons. Our ability to lease space and negotiate rents at advantageous rates could also be affected in this type of economic environment. Additionally, access to capital and credit markets could be disrupted over an extended period, which may make it difficult to obtain the financing we may need for future growth and/or to meet our debt service obligations as they mature. Any of these events could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Uninsured losses could adversely affect our financial condition, and in the future our insurance may not include coverage for acts of terrorism.

We carry a comprehensive blanket policy for general liability, property casualty (including fire, earthquake and flood) and rental loss covering all of our properties, with specifications and insured limits customarily carried for similar properties. However, even insured losses could result in a serious disruption to our business and delay our receipt of revenue. Furthermore, there are some types of losses, including lease and other contract claims, as well as some types of environmental losses, that generally are not insured or are not economically insurable. If an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insured limits occurs, we could lose all or a portion of the capital we have invested in a property, as well as the anticipated future revenues from the property. If this happens, we, or the applicable property’s partnership, may still remain obligated under guarantees provided to the lender for any mortgage debt, secured debt or other financial obligations related to the property.

18

We believe that the general liability and property casualty insurance policies on our properties currently include adequate coverage for losses resulting from acts of terrorism, as defined by TRIPRA. The cost of coverage for acts of terrorism is currently mitigated by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act (“TRIA”). In January 2015, Congress reinstated TRIA under the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2015 (“TRIPRA”) and extended the program through December 31, 2020. Under TRIPRA, the amount of terrorism-related insurance losses triggering the federal insurance threshold was raised from $180 million in 2019 to $200 million in 2020. Additionally, the bill increased insurers’ co-payments for losses exceeding their deductibles, in annual steps, from 19% in 2019 to 20% in 2020. Each of these changes may have the effect of increasing the cost to insure against acts of terrorism for property owners, such as the Company, notwithstanding the other provisions of TRIPRA. In December 2019, Congress further extended TRIPRA through December 31, 2027. If TRIPRA is not continued beyond 2027 or is significantly modified, we may incur higher insurance costs and experience greater difficulty in obtaining insurance that covers terrorist-related damages. Our tenants may also have similar difficulties.

Our bankruptcy filing, from which we emerged in 2021, may adversely affect our business.

It is possible that the filing of our bankruptcy case, from which we emerged in November 2021, may have adversely affected and, in the future, may affect our business and relationships with tenants, suppliers, service providers, employees, lenders and other third parties. Due to uncertainties, many risks exist, including the risk that key suppliers or other third parties may terminate their relationships with us or require additional financial assurances or enhanced performance from us. Our ability to renew existing leases and compete for new tenants also may be adversely affected and our ability to attract, motivate and/or retain key employees may be adversely affected. Our ability to extend maturing loans or obtain new financing may be adversely affected. The occurrence of one or more of these events could have a material and adverse effect on our operations, financial condition and reputation. We cannot provide assurance that having been subject to bankruptcy protection will not adversely affect our operations in the future.

Our historical financial information may not be indicative of our future financial performance.

Our capital structure was significantly altered by the Plan. Under fresh-start reporting rules, our assets and liabilities were adjusted to fair values and our accumulated deficit was restated to zero. Accordingly, under fresh-start reporting rules, our financial condition and results of operations following our emergence from Chapter 11 will not be comparable to the financial condition and results of operations reflected in our historical financial statements.

RISKS RELATED TO DEBT AND FINANCIAL MARKETS

A deterioration of the capital and credit markets could adversely affect our ability to access funds and the capital needed to refinance debt or obtain new debt.

We are significantly dependent upon external financing to fund the growth of our business and ensure that we meet our debt servicing requirements. Our access to financing depends on the willingness of lending institutions to grant credit to us and conditions in the capital markets in general. An economic recession may cause extreme volatility and disruption in the capital and credit markets. This may make it difficult to obtain the financing we may need for future growth and/or to meet our debt service obligations as they mature. Although, we successfully obtained debt for refinancings and retirement of our maturing debt, acquisitions and the construction of new developments and redevelopments in the past, we cannot make any assurances as to whether we will be able to obtain debt in the future, or that the financing options available to us will be on favorable or acceptable terms.

Our indebtedness is substantial and could impair our ability to obtain additional financing.

At December 31, 2022, our pro-rata share of consolidated and unconsolidated debt outstanding, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, was approximately $2,744.0 million. Our total share of consolidated and unconsolidated debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, maturing in 2023, 2024 and 2025 giving effect to all maturity extensions, is approximately $215.4 million, $180.6 million and $166.1 million, respectively. Additionally, we had $151.4 million of debt, at our share, which matured prior to December 31, 2022. Three loans comprise the $151.4 million of debt that matured prior to December 31, 2022 and we remain in discussion with the lenders on each regarding restructuring or foreclosure actions. See Note 7, Note 8 and Note 20 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information.

19

Our leverage and the limitations imposed on us by our financing arrangements and debt service obligations could have important consequences. For example, it could:

•result in the acceleration of a significant amount of debt for non-compliance with the terms of such debt or, if such debt contains cross-default or cross-acceleration provisions, other debt;

•result in the loss of assets due to foreclosure or sale on unfavorable terms, which could create taxable income without accompanying cash proceeds, which could hinder our ability to meet the REIT distribution requirements imposed by the Internal Revenue Code;

•materially impair our ability to borrow unused amounts under financing arrangements or to obtain additional financing or refinancing on favorable terms or at all;

•require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow to paying principal and interest on our indebtedness, reducing the cash flow available to fund our business, to pay dividends, including those necessary to maintain our REIT qualification, or to use for other purposes;

•increase our vulnerability to an economic downturn;

•limit our ability to withstand competitive pressures; or

•reduce our flexibility to respond to changing business and economic conditions.

If any of the foregoing occurs, our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects could be materially and adversely affected, and the trading price of our common stock or other securities could decline significantly.

Rising interest rates could both increase our borrowing costs, thereby adversely affecting our cash flows and the amounts available for distributions to our stockholders, and decrease our stock price, if investors seek higher yields through other investments.

An environment of rising interest rates could lead holders of our securities to seek higher yields through other investments, which could adversely affect the market price of our stock. One of the factors that has likely influenced the price of our stock in public markets is the annual distribution rate we pay as compared with the yields on alternative investments. In addition, increases in market interest rates could result in increased borrowing costs for us, which could be expected to adversely affect our cash flow and the amounts available for distributions to our stockholders and the Operating Partnership’s unitholders. Further, numerous other factors, such as governmental regulatory action and tax laws, could have a significant impact on the future market price of our stock.

As of December 31, 2022, our total share of consolidated and unconsolidated variable-rate debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, was $1,124.1 million. Increases in interest rates will increase our cash interest payments on the variable-rate debt we have outstanding from time to time. If we do not have sufficient cash flow from operations, we might not be able to make all required payments of principal and interest on our debt, which could result in a default or have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations, and which might have further adverse effects on our cash flow and our ability to make distributions to shareholders. These significant debt payment obligations might also require us to use a significant portion of our cash flow from operations to make interest and principal payments on our debt rather than for other purposes such as working capital, capital expenditures or distributions to holders of our equity securities.

We may not be able to raise capital through financing activities.

Many of our assets are encumbered by property-level indebtedness; therefore, we may be limited in our ability to raise additional capital through property-level or other financings. In addition, our ability to raise additional capital could be limited to refinancing existing secured mortgages before their maturity date which may result in yield maintenance or other prepayment penalties to the extent that the mortgage is not open for prepayment at par.

20

We may be adversely affected by the discontinuation of LIBOR.

In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), the authority that regulates LIBOR, announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. The Alternative Reference Rates Committee (ARRC) has identified the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) as its preferred alternative to USD-LIBOR for use in derivatives and other financial contracts that are currently indexed to USD-LIBOR. The FCA no longer publishes one-week and two-month U.S. dollar LIBOR rates and plans to cease publishing all other LIBOR tenors (overnight, one-month, three-month, six-month and 12-month) on June 30, 2023. Although SOFR appears to be the preferred replacement rate for USD-LIBOR, it is unclear if other benchmarks may emerge or if other rates will be adopted outside of the United States. At this time, it is not possible to predict how markets will respond to SOFR or other alternative reference rates as the transition away from the LIBOR benchmark is anticipated in coming years. Accordingly, the outcome of these reforms is uncertain and any changes in the methods by which LIBOR is determined or regulatory activity related to LIBOR’s phaseout could cause LIBOR to perform differently than in the past or cease to exist. The consequences of these developments cannot be entirely predicted, and there can be no assurance that they will not result in financial market disruptions, significant increases in benchmark interest rates, substantially higher financing costs or a shortage of available debt financing, any of which could have an adverse effect on us. It is important to note that some of our existing variable-rate debt uses LIBOR as a benchmark for establishing the rate.

The agreements governing our debt contain various covenants that impose restrictions on us that may affect our ability to operate our business.

Other agreements that we enter into governing our debt have or will contain covenants that impose restrictions on us. These restrictions on our ability to operate our business could harm our business by, among other things, limiting our ability to take advantage of corporate opportunities. Various risks, uncertainties and events beyond our control could affect our ability to comply with these covenants. Failure to comply with any of the covenants in our existing or future financing agreements could result in a default under those agreements and under other agreements containing cross-default provisions.

We may not be able to generate sufficient cash flow to meet our debt service obligations.

Our ability to meet our debt service obligations on, and to refinance, our indebtedness, and to fund our operations, working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures and other important business uses, depends on our ability to generate sufficient cash flow in the future. To a certain extent, our cash flow is subject to general economic, industry, financial, competitive, operating, legislative, regulatory and other factors, many of which are beyond our control.

We cannot be certain that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future sources of cash will be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to meet our debt service obligations on our indebtedness, or to fund our other important business uses. Additionally, if we incur additional indebtedness in connection with future acquisitions or development projects or for any other purpose, our debt service obligations could increase significantly and our ability to meet those obligations could depend, in large part, on the returns from such acquisitions or projects, as to which no assurance can be given.

We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness, at or prior to maturity. Our ability to refinance our indebtedness or obtain additional financing will depend on, among other things:

•our financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects and market conditions at the time; and

•restrictions in the agreements governing our indebtedness.

As a result, we may not be able to refinance any of our indebtedness, on favorable terms, or at all.

If we do not generate sufficient cash flow from operations, and additional borrowings or refinancings are not available to us, we may be unable to meet all our debt service obligations. As a result, we would be forced to take other actions to meet those obligations, such as selling properties, raising equity or delaying capital expenditures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on us. Furthermore, we cannot be certain that we will be able to effect any of these actions on favorable terms, or at all.

Despite our substantial outstanding indebtedness, we may still incur significantly more indebtedness in the future, which would exacerbate any or all the risks described above.

We may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future. To the extent that we incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future, the risks associated with our substantial leverage described above, including our inability to meet our debt service obligations, would be exacerbated.

21

Federal and state statutes allow courts, under specific circumstances, to void guarantees and require holders of indebtedness and lenders to return payments received from guarantors.

Under the federal bankruptcy law and comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer laws, a guarantee, such as the limited guarantee of the secured term loan provided by CBL or any future guarantee issued by any subsidiary of the Operating Partnership, could be voided and required to be returned to the guarantor, or to a fund for the benefit of the creditors of the guarantor, if, among other things, the guarantor, at the time it incurred the indebtedness evidenced by its guarantee (i) received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration for the incurrence of the guarantee and (ii) one of the following was true with respect to the guarantor:

•the guarantor was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of the incurrence of the guarantee;

•the guarantor was engaged in a business or transaction for which the guarantor’s remaining assets constituted unreasonably small capital; or

•the guarantor intended to incur, or believed that it would incur, debts beyond its ability to pay those debts as they mature.

In addition, any claims in respect of a guarantee could be subordinated to all other debts of that guarantor under principles of “equitable subordination,” which generally require that the claimant must have engaged in some type of inequitable conduct, the misconduct must have resulted in injury to the creditors of the debtor or conferred an unfair advantage on the claimant, and equitable subordination must not be inconsistent with other provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.

The measures of insolvency for purposes of these fraudulent transfer laws will vary depending upon the law applied in any proceeding to determine whether a fraudulent transfer has occurred. Generally, however, a guarantor would be considered insolvent if:

•the sum of its debts, including contingent liabilities, was greater than the fair saleable value of all of its assets;

•the present fair saleable value of its assets was less than the amount that would be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts, including contingent liabilities, as they became absolute and mature; or

•it could not pay its debts as they become due.

The court might also void such guarantee, without regard to the above factors, if it found that a guarantor entered into its guarantee with actual or deemed intent to hinder, delay, or defraud its creditors.

A court would likely find that a guarantor did not receive reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration for its guarantee unless it benefited directly or indirectly from the issuance or incurrence of such indebtedness. If a court voided such guarantee, holders of the indebtedness and lenders would no longer have a claim against such guarantor or the benefit of the assets of such guarantor constituting collateral that purportedly secured such guarantee. In addition, the court might direct holders of the indebtedness and lenders to repay any amounts already received from a guarantor.

22

RISKS RELATED TO DIVIDENDS AND OUR STOCK

We currently are not eligible to register the offer and sale of securities on SEC Form S-3, which will impair our capital raising activities.

As a result of the Chapter 11 Cases and the existence of cumulative unpaid dividends on our preferred securities that were outstanding prior to the Chapter 11 Cases, we currently are not eligible to use SEC Form S-3 to register offers and sales of our securities under the Securities Act. Historically, we have relied on shelf registration statements on Form S-3 for our public capital raising transactions, and also to register the offer and sale of shares of common stock under our former dividend reinvestment plan. Our inability to use Form S-3 may harm our ability to raise capital in the future, as we will be required to use a registration statement on Form S-11 to register securities with the SEC until such time as we are able to regain eligibility to use Form S-3, which may be expected to hinder our ability to act quickly in raising capital to take advantage of market conditions and to increase our cost of raising capital. We intend to regain eligibility to use Form S-3 as soon as is practicable; however, we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to regain eligibility.

We may change the dividend policy for our common stock in the future.

Depending upon our liquidity needs, we reserve the right to pay any or all of a dividend in a combination of cash and shares of common stock, to the extent permitted by any applicable revenue procedures of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). In the event that we should pay a portion of any future dividends in shares of our common stock pursuant to such procedures, taxable U.S. stockholders would be required to pay tax on the entire amount of the dividend, including the portion paid in shares of common stock, in which case such stockholders may have to use cash from other sources to pay such tax. If a U.S. stockholder sells any common stock it receives as a dividend in order to pay its taxes, the sales proceeds may be less than the amount included in income with respect to the dividend, depending on the market price of our common stock at the time of the sale. Furthermore, with respect to non-U.S. stockholders, we may be required to withhold federal tax with respect to any future dividends, including any dividends that are paid in common stock. In addition, if a significant number of our stockholders sell shares of our common stock in order to pay taxes owed on any future dividends, such sales would put downward pressure on the market price of our common stock.

The decision to declare and pay dividends on any outstanding shares of our common stock, as well as the timing, amount and composition of any such future dividends, will be at the sole discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our earnings, taxable income, FFO, liquidity, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual prohibitions or other limitations under our then-current indebtedness, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, Delaware law and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant. Any dividends payable will be determined by our board of directors based upon the circumstances at the time of declaration. Any change in our future dividend policy could have a material adverse effect on the market price of our future outstanding common stock.

Since we conduct substantially all our operations through our Operating Partnership, our ability to pay dividends on our common stock depends on the distributions we receive from our Operating Partnership.

Because we conduct substantially all our operations through our Operating Partnership, our ability to service our debt obligations, as well as our ability to pay any future dividends on our common stock will depend almost entirely upon the earnings and cash flows of the Operating Partnership and the ability of the Operating Partnership to make distributions to us on our ownership interests in our Operating Partnership. Under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, the Operating Partnership is prohibited from making any distribution to us to the extent that at the time of the distribution, after giving effect to the distribution, all liabilities of the Operating Partnership (other than some non-recourse liabilities and some liabilities to the partners) exceed the fair value of the assets of the Operating Partnership.

Additionally, the terms of our secured term loan provide a waterfall calculation for distributions of excess cash flow generated by the properties secured as collateral on the term loan. The waterfall calculation generally provides that the excess cash flow be used for additional payments of principal on the secured term loan before distributions may be made for other purposes. In the event of a default, no amounts may be distributed other than to repay the outstanding balance on the secured term loan. This in turn may limit our ability to make some types of payments, including payment of dividends to our stockholders. Any inability to make cash distributions from the Operating Partnership could jeopardize our ability to pay any future dividends to our stockholders for one or more dividend periods which, in turn, could jeopardize our ability to maintain qualification as a REIT.

23

RISKS RELATED TO GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATIONS

Since our properties are located principally in the southeastern and midwestern United States, our financial position, results of operations and funds available for distribution to shareholders are subject generally to economic conditions in these regions and, in particular, to adverse economic developments affecting the operating results of properties in our five largest markets.

Our properties are located principally in the southeastern and midwestern United States. Our properties located in the southeastern United States accounted for approximately 50.9% of our total pro-rata share of revenues from all properties for the year ended December 31, 2022 and currently include 19 malls, 4 lifestyle centers, 2 outlet centers, 18 open-air centers, 3 office buildings and a hotel. Our properties located in the midwestern United States accounted for approximately 22.9% of our total pro-rata share of revenues from all properties for the year ended December 31, 2022 and currently include 15 malls and 2 open-air centers. Further, our properties located in our five largest metropolitan area markets – St. Louis, MO; Laredo, TX; Chattanooga, TN; Lexington, KY; and Greensboro, NC – accounted for approximately 7.0%, 4.4%, 4.3%, 4.3% and 3.6%, respectively, of our total pro-rata share of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022. No other market accounted for more than 3.4% of our total pro-rata share of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Our results of operations and funds available for distribution to shareholders therefore will be impacted generally by economic conditions in the southeastern and midwestern United States, and particularly by the results experienced at properties located in our five largest market areas. While we have properties located in six states across the southwestern, northeastern and western regions, we will continue to look for opportunities to geographically diversify our portfolio in order to minimize dependency on any particular region; however, the expansion of the portfolio through both acquisitions and developments is contingent on many factors including consumer demand, competition and economic conditions.

RISKS RELATED TO FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS

We conduct a portion of our business through taxable REIT subsidiaries, which are subject to certain tax risks.

We have established several taxable REIT subsidiaries including CBL Holdings I, LLC, the general partner of the Operating Partnership, and our Management Company. Despite our qualification as a REIT, our taxable REIT subsidiaries must pay income tax on their taxable income. In addition, we must comply with various tests to continue to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, and our income from and investments in our taxable REIT subsidiaries generally do not constitute permissible income and investments for these tests. While we will attempt to ensure that our dealings with our taxable REIT subsidiaries will not adversely affect our REIT qualification, we cannot provide assurance that we will successfully achieve that result. Furthermore, we may be subject to a 100% penalty tax, or our taxable REIT subsidiaries may be denied deductions, to the extent our dealings with our taxable REIT subsidiaries are not deemed to be arm’s length in nature.

If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, our funds available for distribution to stockholders will be reduced.

We intend to continue to operate so as to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code. Although we believe that we are organized and operate in such a manner, no assurance can be given that we currently qualify and, in the future, will continue to qualify as a REIT. Such qualification involves the application of highly technical and complex Internal Revenue Code provisions for which there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. The determination of various factual matters and circumstances not entirely within our control may affect our ability to qualify. In addition, no assurance can be given that legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions will not significantly change the tax laws with respect to qualification or its corresponding federal income tax consequences. Any such change could have a retroactive effect.

If in any taxable year we were to fail to qualify as a REIT, we would not be allowed a deduction for distributions to stockholders in computing our taxable income and we would be subject to federal income tax on our taxable income at regular corporate rates. Unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions, we also would be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost. As a result, the funds available for distribution to our stockholders would be reduced for each of the years involved. This would likely have a significant adverse effect on the value of our securities and our ability to raise additional capital. In addition, we would no longer be required to make distributions to our stockholders. We currently intend to operate in a manner designed to qualify as a REIT. However, it is possible that future economic, market, legal, tax or other considerations may cause our board of directors to revoke the REIT election.

24

Any issuance or transfer of our capital stock to any person in excess of the applicable limits on ownership necessary to maintain our status as a REIT would be deemed void ab initio, and those shares would automatically be transferred to the Company as trustee of a charitable trust.

To maintain our status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, not more than 50% in value of our outstanding capital stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code to include certain entities) at any time during the last half of a taxable year. Our Certificate of Incorporation generally prohibits ownership of more than 9.9% of the outstanding shares of our capital stock by any single stockholder, either directly or constructively as determined through the application of applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. The approval of our board of directors and the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of our outstanding voting stock is required to amend this provision.

Our board of directors may, subject to certain conditions, waive the applicable ownership limit upon receipt of a ruling from the IRS or an opinion of counsel to the effect that such ownership will not jeopardize our status as a REIT. Historically, our board of directors has granted such waivers to certain institutional investors based upon the receipt of such opinions from the Company’s tax counsel. Absent any such waiver, however, any issuance or transfer of our capital stock to any person in excess of the applicable ownership limit or any issuance or transfer of shares of such stock which would cause us to be beneficially owned by fewer than 100 persons, will be null and void and the intended transferee will acquire no rights to the stock. Instead, such issuance or transfer with respect to that number of shares that would be owned by the transferee in excess of the ownership limit provision would be deemed void ab initio and those shares would automatically be transferred to a trust with the Company or its designated successor serving as trustee, for the exclusive benefit of a charitable beneficiary to be designated by us. Any acquisition of our capital stock and continued holding or ownership of our capital stock constitutes, under our Certificate of Incorporation, a continuous representation of compliance with the applicable ownership limit.

In order to maintain our status as a REIT and avoid the imposition of certain additional taxes under the Internal Revenue Code, we must satisfy minimum requirements for distributions to shareholders, which may limit the amount of cash we might otherwise have been able to retain for use in growing our business.

To maintain our status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, we generally will be required each year to distribute to our stockholders at least 90% of our taxable income after certain adjustments. However, to the extent that we do not distribute all our net capital gains or distribute at least 90% but less than 100% of our REIT taxable income, as adjusted, we will be subject to tax on the undistributed amount at regular corporate tax rates, as the case may be. Also, our cash flows from operations may be insufficient to fund required distributions as a result of differences in timing between the actual receipt of income and the payment of expenses and the recognition of income and expenses for federal income tax purposes, or the effect of nondeductible expenditures, such as capital expenditures, payments of compensation for which Section 162(m) of the Code denies a deduction, interest expense deductions limited by Section 163(j) of the Code, the creation of reserves or required debt service or amortization payments. In addition, we will be subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which certain distributions paid by us during each calendar year are less than the sum of 85% of our ordinary income for such calendar year, 95% of our capital gain net income for the calendar year and any amount of such income that was not distributed in prior years. In the case of property acquisitions, including our initial formation, where individual properties are contributed to our Operating Partnership for Operating Partnership units, we have assumed the tax basis and depreciation schedules of the entities contributing properties. The relatively low tax basis of such contributed properties may have the effect of increasing the cash amounts we are required to distribute as dividends, thereby potentially limiting the amount of cash we might otherwise have been able to retain for use in growing our business. This low tax basis may also have the effect of reducing or eliminating the portion of distributions made by us that are treated as a non-taxable return of capital.

Complying with REIT requirements might cause us to forego otherwise attractive opportunities.

In order to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we must satisfy tests concerning, among other things, our sources of income, the nature of our assets, the amounts we distribute to our shareholders and the ownership of our stock. We may also be required to make distributions to our shareholders at disadvantageous times or when we do not have funds readily available for distribution. Thus, compliance with REIT requirements may cause us to forego opportunities we would otherwise pursue. In addition, the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code impose a 100% tax on income from “prohibited transactions.” “Prohibited transactions” generally include sales of assets that constitute inventory or other property held for sale in the ordinary course of business, other than foreclosure property. This 100% tax could impact our desire to sell assets and other investments at otherwise opportune times if we believe such sales could be considered “prohibited transactions.”

25

Partnership tax audit rules could have a material adverse effect on us.

Under the rules applicable to U.S. federal income tax audits of partnerships, subject to certain exceptions, any audit adjustment to items of income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit of a partnership (and any partner’s distributive share thereof) is determined, and taxes, interest, or penalties attributable thereto could be assessed and collected, at the partnership level. Absent available elections, it is possible that a partnership in which we directly or indirectly invest could be required to pay additional taxes, interest and penalties as a result of an audit adjustment, and we, as a direct or indirect partner of these partnerships, could be required to bear the economic burden of those taxes, interest, and penalties even though we may not otherwise have been required to pay additional taxes had we owned the assets of the partnership directly. The partnership tax audit rules apply to the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries that are classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes. There can be no assurance that these rules will not have a material adverse effect on us.

Transfers of our equity, or issuances of equity, may impair our ability to utilize the existing tax basis in our assets, our federal income tax net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes during the current year and in future years.

Under certain provisions of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), and similar state provisions, a corporation is generally permitted to offset net taxable income in a given year with net operating losses carried forward from prior years, and its existing adjusted tax basis in its assets may be used to offset future gains or to generate annual cost recovery deductions.

In order to qualify for taxation as a REIT, we must meet various requirements including a requirement to distribute 90% of our taxable income; and, to avoid paying corporate income tax, we must distribute 100% of our taxable income. Our ability to utilize future tax deductions, net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes to offset future taxable income is subject to certain requirements and restrictions. We experienced an “ownership change,” as defined in section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code, in connection with our emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases, that may substantially limit our ability to use future tax deductions, net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes to offset future taxable income, which could have a negative impact on our financial position and results of operations. Generally, there is an “ownership change” under section 382 of the Code if one or more stockholders owning 5% or more of a corporation’s common stock have aggregate increases in their ownership of such stock of more than 50 percentage points over a prescribed testing period. Under section 382 and section 383 of the Code, absent an applicable exception, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change”, certain future tax deductions (through “recognized built-in losses” arising when a company has a “net unrealized built-in loss” (NUBIL) if they are recognized within five years of the “ownership change”), net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes that may be utilized to offset future taxable income generally are subject to an annual limitation.

We have a significant NUBIL in our assets, as well as net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes at the date of emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases that would be subject to limitation under section 382.

Whether or not future tax deductions, net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes are subject to limitation under section 382, net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes are expected to be further reduced by the amount of discharge of indebtedness arising in our Chapter 11 Cases under section 108 of the Internal Revenue Code.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE

The ownership limit described above, as well as certain provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, may hinder any attempt to acquire us.

There are certain provisions of Delaware law (which we have opted out of having apply to the Company), our Certificate of Incorporation and our Bylaws, which may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a third party from making an acquisition proposal for us. These provisions may also inhibit a change in control that some, or a majority, of our stockholders might believe to be in their best interest or that could give our stockholders the opportunity to realize a premium over the then-prevailing market prices for their shares. These provisions and agreements are summarized as follows:

•The Ownership Limit – As described above, to maintain our status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, not more than 50% in value of our outstanding capital stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code to include certain entities) during the last half of a taxable year. Our Certificate of Incorporation generally prohibits ownership of more than 9.9% of the outstanding shares of our capital stock by any single stockholder, either directly or constructively as determined through the application of applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, subject to the ability of the board of directors to grant waivers in appropriate circumstances, and further subject to Existing Holder Limits that were established in connection with our emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases for two stockholder groups, Canyon Capital Advisors and certain of its affiliates (33.1%) and Oaktree Capital Group, LLC and certain of its affiliates (19.0%). In addition to preserving our status as a REIT, the ownership limit may have the effect of precluding an acquisition of control of us without the approval of our board of directors.

•Approval by a Majority of Our Outstanding Voting Stock Required for Removal of Directors – Our governing documents provide that stockholders can remove directors with or without cause, but only by the affirmative vote of holders of at least a majority of the outstanding voting stock. This provision makes it more difficult to change the composition of our board of directors and may have the effect of encouraging persons considering unsolicited tender offers or other unilateral takeover proposals to negotiate with our board of directors rather than pursue non-negotiated takeover attempts.

•Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals – Our Bylaws establish advance notice procedures with regard to stockholder proposals relating to the nomination of candidates for election as directors or new business to be brought before meetings of our stockholders. These procedures generally require advance written notice of any such proposals, containing prescribed information, to be given to our Secretary at our principal executive offices not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the date on which we first mailed our proxy materials for the prior year’s annual meeting.

•Vote Required to Amend Bylaws – Approval by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting power of our outstanding capital stock entitled to vote in the election of directors (in addition to any separate approval that may be required by the holders of any particular class of stock) is necessary for stockholders to amend our Bylaws.

•Opt-Out From Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute – While we are a Delaware corporation, we have elected under the provisions of our current Certificate of Incorporation not to be governed by Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. In general, had we continued to be subject to Section 203 as we were prior to emerging from the Chapter 11 reorganization, Section 203 would prevent an “interested stockholder” (defined generally as a person owning 15% or more of a company’s outstanding voting stock) from engaging in a “business combination” (as defined in Section 203) with us for three years following the date that person becomes an interested stockholder (subject to certain exceptions specified in Section 203).

Our Certificate of Incorporation contains a provision renouncing our interest and expectancy in certain corporate opportunities identified by our non‐employee directors and their affiliates.

Certain of our non‐employee directors and their affiliates engage in the same or similar business activities or lines of business in which we operate and may make investments in properties or businesses that directly or indirectly compete with certain portions of our business. As set forth in our Certificate of Incorporation, such non‐employee directors and their affiliates shall not have any duty, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to refrain from (x) engaging in the same or similar business activities or lines of business in which we operate or propose to operate, (y) making investments in any kind of property in which we make or may make investments or (z) otherwise competing with us or any of our affiliates. Our Certificate of Incorporation also provides that if our non-employee directors or their affiliates acquire knowledge of a potential transaction that could be a corporate opportunity, they have no duty to communicate or offer such corporate opportunity to us or our affiliates, unless such corporate opportunity is expressly offered to the non-employee director solely in his or her capacity as one of our directors (or officers, if applicable).

27

Therefore, a non‐employee director of our company may pursue certain acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business and, as a result, such acquisition opportunities may not be available to us. In addition, in the event that any of our non-employee directors or his or her affiliates acquires knowledge of a corporate opportunity or is offered a corporate opportunity, provided that this knowledge was not acquired solely in such person’s capacity as a director or officer of the Company, then to the fullest extent permitted by law such person is deemed to have fully satisfied such person’s fiduciary duties owed to us and is not liable to us if such director or its affiliates pursues or acquires the corporate opportunity or if such person did not present the corporate opportunity to us. These potential conflicts of interest could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or prospects if attractive corporate opportunities are allocated by such non‐employee directors to themselves or their other affiliates instead of to us.

The shareholders’ rights plan adopted by our board of directors may discourage a third party from acquiring us in a manner that might result in a premium price to our shareholders.

On September 8, 2022, our board of directors adopted a short-term rights plan (the “Rights Plan”) that will expire on September 8, 2023, or sooner under certain circumstances. Pursuant to the Rights Plan, the board of directors authorized a dividend of one share purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of our common stock. If a person or group of affiliated or associated persons acquires beneficial ownership of 10.0% or more of our outstanding common shares, subject to certain exceptions (including exceptions for existing holders who do not increase their holdings as provided in the Rights Plan), each Right would effectively entitle its holder (other than the acquiring person or group of affiliated or associated persons) to purchase additional common shares at a substantial discount to the public market price. In addition, under certain circumstances, we may exchange the Rights (other than Rights beneficially owned by the acquiring person or group of affiliated or associated persons), in whole or in part, for common shares on a one-for-one basis, or we may redeem the Rights for cash at a price of $0.001 per Right. The Rights Plan could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us or a large block of our common shares without the approval of our board of directors, which may discourage a third party from acquiring us in a manner that might result in a premium price to our shareholders.

Malls, Lifestyle Centers and Outlet Centers

We owned a controlling interest in 41 Malls, 4 Lifestyle Centers and 2 Outlet Centers as of December 31, 2022. We owned a non-controlling interest in 6 Malls, 1 Lifestyle Center and 3 Outlet Centers as of December 31, 2022. Our Malls, Lifestyle Centers and Outlet Centers generally have strong competitive positions because they are the only, or the dominant, regional property in their respective trade areas. The Malls, Lifestyle Centers and Outlet Centers are generally anchored by two or more anchors or junior anchors and a wide variety of smaller stores. Anchor and junior anchor tenants own or lease their stores and non-anchor stores lease their locations.

We own the land underlying each property in fee simple interest, except for Brookfield Square, Cross Creek Mall, Dakota Square Mall, Meridian Mall, St. Clair Square, Stroud Mall and WestGate Mall. We lease all or a portion of the land at each of these properties subject to long-term ground leases.

The following table summarizes tenant occupancy costs as a percentage of total inline and adjacent freestanding store sales for reporting tenants less than 10,000 square feet, excluding license agreements, for each of the past three years:

	Year Ended December 31, (1)
	2022			2021			2020

Anchors and Junior Anchors

Anchors and Junior Anchors are an important factor in a property’s successful performance. However, over the past several years the number of traditional department store anchors have declined, providing us the opportunity to redevelop these spaces to attract new uses such as restaurants, entertainment, fitness centers, casinos, grocery stores and lifestyle retailers that engage consumers and encourage them to spend more time at our properties. Anchors are generally a department store or, increasingly, other large format tenants, including retailers whose merchandise appeals to a broad range of shoppers, and non-retail uses. Anchors play a significant role in generating customer traffic and creating a desirable location for the property's tenants.

Anchors and Junior Anchors may own their stores and the land underneath, as well as the adjacent parking areas, or may enter into long-term leases with respect to their stores. Rental rates for Anchor tenants are significantly lower than the rents charged to non-anchor tenants. Total revenues from Anchors and Junior Anchors accounted for 18.1% of the total revenues from our properties in 2022. Each Anchor and Junior Anchor that owns its store has entered into an operating and reciprocal easement agreement with us covering items such as operating covenants, reciprocal easements, property operations, initial construction and future expansion.

During 2022, the following Anchors and Junior Anchors were added to our properties, as listed below:

Name	Property	Location
Life Storage	York Galleria	York, PA
Main Event	Sunrise Mall	Brownsville, TX
Restoration Hardware Outlet	The Outlet Shoppes of the Bluegrass	Simpsonville, KY
Scheels	Dakota Square Mall	Minot, ND
Tilt	Dakota Square Mall	Minot, ND
Urban Planet	Turtle Creek Mall	Hattiesburg, MS
Von Maur	West Towne Mall	Madison, WI

As of December 31, 2022, our properties had a total of 443 Anchors and Junior Anchors, including 50 vacant Anchor and Junior Anchor locations, and excluding Anchors and Junior Anchors at our Excluded Malls. The Anchors and Junior Anchors and the amount of GLA leased or owned by each as of December 31, 2022 is as follows:

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes that are included in this annual report. Capitalized terms used, but not defined, in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations have the same meanings as defined in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.

Fresh Start Accounting

Upon emergence from bankruptcy, we qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification 852, which resulted in our becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes. As a result, our financial results for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021 are referred to as those of the "Successor." Our financial results for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 are referred to as those of the “Predecessor." Our results of operations as reported in our consolidated financial statements for these periods are prepared in accordance with GAAP. See Note 19 for additional information.

Executive Overview

We are a self-managed, self-administered, fully integrated REIT that is engaged in the ownership, development, acquisition, leasing, management and operation of regional shopping malls, outlet centers, lifestyle centers, open-air centers and other properties. We own interests in 91 properties, consisting of 47 malls, 29 open-air centers, five outlet centers, five lifestyle centers and five other properties, including single-tenant and multi-tenant outparcels. Our shopping centers are located in 22 states, and are primarily in the southeastern and midwestern United States. We have elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.

We conduct substantially all our business through the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership consolidates the financial statements of all entities in which it has a controlling financial interest or where it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. See Item 2 for a description of our properties owned and under development as of December 31, 2022.

The Successor had a net loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 of $99.5 million. The Successor had a net loss for the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021 of $152.7 million. The Predecessor had a net loss for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 of $486.4 million. The Successor had a net loss attributable to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2022 of $96.0 million. The Successor had a net loss attributable to common shareholders for the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021 of $151.5 million. The Predecessor had a net loss attributable to common shareholders for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 of $470.6 million.

Our focus is on continuing to execute our strategy to transform our diverse portfolio of dynamic properties into dominant centers that offer a mix of retail, service, dining, entertainment and other non-retail uses, primarily through the re-tenanting of former anchor locations as well as diversification of in-line tenancy. This operational strategy is also supported by our balance sheet strategy focused on reducing overall debt, extending our debt maturity schedule and lowering our overall cost of borrowings to limit maturity risk, improve net cash flow and enhance enterprise value. While the industry and our Company continue to face challenges, some of which may not be in our control, we believe that the strategies in place to redevelop our properties and diversify our tenant mix will contribute to stabilization of our portfolio and revenues in future years.

Voluntary Reorganization Under Chapter 11

Beginning on November 1, 2020, CBL and the Operating Partnership, together with the Debtors, filed the Chapter 11 Cases under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court. The Bankruptcy Court authorized the Debtors to continue to operate their businesses and manage their properties as debtors-in-possession pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code.

In connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, on August 11, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order, Docket No.1397 (Confirmation Order), confirming the Debtors’ Plan.

On the Effective Date, the conditions to effectiveness of the Plan were satisfied and the Debtors emerged from the Chapter 11 Cases. The Company filed a notice of the Effective Date of the Plan with the Bankruptcy Court on November 1, 2021. Following the Effective Date, one of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases remain open to administer claims pursuant to the Plan. See Note 18 and Note 19 to our consolidated financial statements for more information.

The filing of the Chapter 11 Cases constituted an event of default with respect to certain property-level debt of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries, which may have resulted in the automatic acceleration of certain monetary obligations or may have given the applicable lender the right to accelerate such amounts. As of December 31, 2022, we had no loans in default due to our filing of the Chapter 11 Cases. See Note 7 and Note 8 for additional information.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, rental revenues of the Successor were lower primarily due to the deconsolidations of Greenbrier Mall and EastGate Mall in March 2022 and December 2021, respectively. The Successor year ended December 31, 2022 includes higher amortization of net above market leases due to the adoption of fresh start accounting upon our emergence from bankruptcy.

Total property operating expenses of the Predecessor were $156.0 million for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2022, total property operating expenses of the Successor reflect increases in utility rates across our properties and the impact of wage inflation on third party contracts and services.

Depreciation and amortization expense of the Successor was $256.3 million and $49.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, respectively. Depreciation and amortization expense of the Predecessor was $158.6 million for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2022, depreciation and amortization expense of the Successor was higher primarily due to a new basis in depreciable assets and intangible in-place lease assets that have shorter useful lives resulting from the adoption of fresh start accounting upon our emergence from bankruptcy.

48

General and administrative expenses of the Successor were $67.2 million and $9.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, respectively. General and administrative expenses of the Predecessor were $43.2 million for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2022, general and administrative expenses of the Successor included higher compensation and share-based compensation expenses as we returned to normal operations and compensation practices following our emergence from bankruptcy. Also, for the year ended December 31, 2022, general and administrative expenses of the Successor include incremental professional fees associated with loan modifications and extensions, and fees incurred to obtain credit ratings on our secured term loan in accordance with the term loan agreement.

Other Income and Expenses

Interest and other income of the Successor was $4.9 million and $0.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, respectively. Interest and other income of the Predecessor was $2.1 million for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2022, interest and other income of the Successor was higher due to purchasing additional U.S. Treasury securities with higher interest rates.

Interest expense of the Successor was $217.3 million and $195.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, respectively. Interest expense of the Predecessor was $72.4 million for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2022, interest expense of the Successor included accretion of debt discounts of $117.3 million on property-level debt. For the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, interest expense of the Successor included accretion of debt discounts of $174.4 million on property-level debt. The property-level debt discounts were recognized in conjunction with recording our property-level debt at fair value upon the adoption of fresh start accounting. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor period also included interest expense related to the secured term loan and the new loans entered into during 2022 that are secured by certain of our open-air centers and outparcels. Additionally, for the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor incurred higher interest expense due to higher interest rates during 2022. During 2022, the Successor had a reversal of previously recognized default interest expense of $20.2 million when forbearance/waiver agreements were obtained. During the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021, we did not recognize interest expense on corporate debt while we were in bankruptcy. However, we did recognize $26.7 million of default interest expense during the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor recorded a $7.3 million gain on extinguishment of debt related to the loan secured by The Outlet Shoppes at Gettysburg. Subsequent to approval of the lender's claim against the general unsecured claims pool, the existing loan was modified. As part of the modification, the loan balance was reduced to $21.0 million and the corporate recourse was eliminated. The modification resulted in the loan being treated as a new loan for accounting purposes, which resulted in the recognition of gain on extinguishment of debt.

Reorganization items, net, of the Successor were an addition to income of $0.3 million and a reduction to income of $1.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, respectively, which related to the true up of estimated accrued expenses to actual amounts, partially offset by professional fees and U.S. Trustee fees directly related to the bankruptcy filing. Reorganization items, net, of the Predecessor were a reduction to income of $435.2 million for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 which consisted of adjustments to record the assets and liabilities of the Successor at fair value as of the Effective Date, transactions associated with the Plan, professional fees, legal fees, retention bonuses and U.S. Trustee fees directly related to the bankruptcy.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor recorded a $36.3 million gain on deconsolidation related to Greenbrier Mall that was deconsolidated due to a loss of control when the mall was placed into receivership in connection with the foreclosure process. For the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, the Successor recorded a $19.1 million gain on deconsolidation related to EastGate Mall that was deconsolidated due to a loss of control when the mall was placed into receivership in connection with the foreclosure process. For the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021, the Predecessor recorded a $55.1 million gain on deconsolidation related to Asheville Mall and Park Plaza that were deconsolidated due to a loss of control when the malls were placed into receivership in connection with the foreclosure process.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates of the Successor was $19.8 million and $0.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, respectively. Equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates of the Predecessor was $10.8 million for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, equity in earnings of the Successor does not include equity in losses of certain unconsolidated affiliates where the Successor's investment in those unconsolidated affiliates was reduced to zero in connection with the application of fresh start accounting. The Predecessor period includes recognition of equity in losses of certain unconsolidated affiliates.

49

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the income tax provision of the Successor was $3.1 million. For the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, the income tax benefit of the Successor was $5.9 million. For the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021, the income tax provision of the Predecessor was $1.1 million.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor recognized $5.3 million of gain on sales of real estate assets primarily related to the sale of five outparcels. During the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021, the Predecessor recognized $12.2 million of gain on sales of real estate assets primarily related to the sale of one center, four anchors and four outparcels.

See Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 for the financial information for the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2020.

Non-GAAP Measure

Same-center Net Operating Income

NOI is a supplemental non-GAAP measure of the operating performance of our shopping centers and other properties. We define NOI as property operating revenues (rental revenues, tenant reimbursements and other income) less property operating expenses (property operating, real estate taxes and maintenance and repairs). We also exclude the impact of lease termination fees and certain non-cash items such as straight-line rents and reimbursements, write-offs of landlord inducements and net amortization of acquired above and below market leases.

We compute NOI based on the Operating Partnership's pro rata share of both consolidated and unconsolidated properties. We believe that presenting NOI and same-center NOI (described below) based on our Operating Partnership’s pro rata share of both consolidated and unconsolidated properties is useful since we conduct substantially all our business through our Operating Partnership and, therefore, it reflects the performance of our properties in absolute terms regardless of the ratio of ownership interests of our common shareholders and the noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership. Our definition of NOI may be different than that used by other companies, and accordingly, our calculation of NOI may not be comparable to that of other companies.

Since NOI includes only those revenues and expenses related to the operations of our shopping center properties, we believe that same-center NOI provides a measure that reflects trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, sales at the malls and operating costs and the impact of those trends on our results of operations. Our calculation of same-center NOI excludes lease termination income, straight-line rent adjustments, and amortization of above and below market lease intangibles in order to enhance the comparability of results from one period to another.

We include a property in our same-center pool when we have owned all or a portion of the property since January 1 of the preceding calendar year and it has been in operation for both the entire preceding calendar year ended December 31, 2021 and the current year ended December 31, 2022. New properties are excluded from same-center NOI, until they meet these criteria. Properties excluded from the same-center pool, which would otherwise meet these criteria, are properties where we intend to renegotiate the terms of the debt secured by the related property or return the property to the lender. Alamance Crossing East and WestGate Mall were classified as Excluded Properties as of December 31, 2022.

Due to the exclusions noted above, same-center NOI should only be used as a supplemental measure of our performance and not as an alternative to GAAP operating income (loss) or net income (loss). A reconciliation of our same-center NOI to net loss for the Successor year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021 and the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 is as follows (in thousands):

Same-center NOI of the Successor was $443.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022. Same-center NOI of the Successor was $85.8 million for the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. Same-center NOI of the Predecessor was $353.0 million for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. Same-center NOI of the Successor for the year ended December 31, 2022 was 1.0% higher primarily due to $13.2 million of higher revenues partially offset by $8.7 million of higher operating expenses. Rental revenues of the Successor for the year ended December 31, 2022 were $13.4 million higher primarily due to increases in occupancy and an increase in percentage rent due to higher trailing twelve-month sales, which was partially offset by lower tenant reimbursements. Property operating expenses of the Successor for the year ended December 31, 2022 were higher primarily due to increases in utility rates across our properties and the impact of wage inflation on third party contracts and services.

Operational Review

The shopping center business is, to some extent, seasonal in nature with tenants typically achieving the highest levels of sales during the fourth quarter due to the holiday season, which generally results in higher percentage rents in the fourth quarter. Additionally, Malls, Lifestyle Centers and Outlet Centers earn a large portion of their rents from short-term tenants during the holiday period. Thus, occupancy levels and revenue production are generally the highest in the fourth quarter of each year. Results of operations realized in any one quarter may not be indicative of the results likely to be experienced over the course of the fiscal year.

We derive the majority of our revenues from the Malls, Lifestyle Centers and Outlet Centers. The sources of our revenues by property type were as follows:

	Successor						Predecessor
	Year Ended December 31,			For the Period November 1, through December 31,			For the Period January 1, through October 31,
	2022			2021			2021
Malls, Lifestyle Centers and Outlet Centers		86.1	%		87.3	%		87.9	%
All Other		13.9	%		12.7	%		12.1	%

Inline and Adjacent Freestanding Store Sales

Inline and adjacent freestanding store sales include reporting mall, lifestyle center and outlet center tenants of 10,000 square feet or less for Malls, Lifestyle Centers and Outlet Centers and exclude license agreements, which are retail leases that are temporary or short-term in nature and generally last more than three months but less than twelve months. The following is a comparison of our same-center sales per square foot for mall, lifestyle center and outlet center tenants of 10,000 square feet or less (Excluded Properties are not included in sales metrics):

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2022, we had $337.1 million available in unrestricted cash and U.S. Treasury securities. Our total pro rata share of debt, excluding unamortized deferred financing costs and debt discounts, at December 31, 2022 was $2,744.0 million. We had $54.4 million in restricted cash at December 31, 2022 related to cash held in escrow accounts for insurance, real estate taxes, capital expenditures and tenant allowances as required by the terms of certain mortgage notes payable, as well as amounts related to cash management agreements with lenders of certain property-level mortgage indebtedness, which are designated for debt service and operating expense obligations. We also had restricted cash of $42.8 million related to the properties that secure the corporate term loan and the open-air centers and outparcels loan of which we may receive a portion via distributions semiannually and quarterly in accordance with the provisions of the term loan and the open-air centers and outparcels loan, respectively.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, we continued to reinvest the cash from maturing U.S. Treasury securities into new U.S. Treasury securities. We designated our U.S. Treasury securities as available-for-sale. As of December 31, 2022, our U.S. Treasury securities have maturities through November 2023. Subsequent to December 31, 2022, we redeemed additional U.S. Treasury securities. See Note 20 for additional information.

During 2022, we entered into five new loans that had a combined outstanding balance of $481.6 million at our share as of December 31, 2022. A portion of the loan proceeds was used to redeem all the senior secured notes. See Note 7 and Note 8 for additional information about the interest rate on each loan, the use of the loan proceeds, the maturity date on each loan and the property or properties that secure each loan.

During 2022, we modified two loans which resulted in a lower interest rate for one loan and a reduced loan balance on the other loan. Also, we extended the maturity dates on seven loans, which had a combined outstanding balance of $503.8 million at our share as of December 31, 2022. Lastly, we entered into five forbearance agreements with lenders and had the default waived on two loans related to the default that was triggered when we filed for bankruptcy. See Note 7 and Note 8 for additional information about the modifications, extensions and forbearance/waiver agreements.

In February 2022, we issued 10,982,795 shares of common stock to holders of the $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of exchangeable notes issued on the Effective Date, in satisfaction of principal, accrued interest and the make whole payment, and all the exchangeable notes were cancelled in accordance with the terms of the indenture.

In March 2022, we deconsolidated Greenbrier Mall as a result of losing control when the property was placed in receivership. In October 2022, the lender foreclosed on the $61.6 million loan secured by Greenbrier Mall.

In June 2022, we paid off the $14.9 million loan secured by CBL Center at maturity.

In June 2022, our board of directors established a regular quarterly dividend. We paid common stock dividends of $0.25 per share in each of the second, third and fourth quarters of 2022. In November 2022, our board of directors declared a special dividend of $2.20 per share of common stock, payable all in cash. The special dividend was paid on January 18, 2023, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 12, 2022. The special dividend was made to ensure that we met the minimum distribution requirement to maintain our status as a real estate investment trust. Subsequent to December 31, 2022, our board of directors declared a $0.375 per share regular quarterly dividend for the first quarter of 2023. See Note 20 for additional information.

During 2022, we completed the sale of eleven real estate assets which generated $13.4 million in gross proceeds, at our share.

54

Our total share of consolidated and unconsolidated outstanding debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, maturing during 2023, assuming all extension options are elected, is $215.4 million, and our total share of consolidated and unconsolidated outstanding debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, that matured prior to 2023, which remains outstanding at December 31, 2022, is $151.4 million. We are in discussions with the existing lenders to modify and extend or otherwise refinance the loans.

As of December 31, 2022, we had $553.9 million of property-level debt and related obligations, including unconsolidated debt and related obligations, maturing or callable within the next 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements. We are in discussions with the lenders regarding foreclosure actions for two properties totaling $70.4 million of mortgage notes payable and intend to refinance and/or extend the maturity dates for the remaining $483.5 million of such mortgage notes payable. In instances where a refinancing and/or extension of maturity dates is unsuccessful we will repay certain of the mortgage notes based on the availability of liquidity and convey certain properties to the lender to satisfy the debt obligation.

Unconsolidated Affiliates

We have ownership interests in 23 unconsolidated affiliates as of December 31, 2022. See Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements for more information. The unconsolidated affiliates are accounted for using the equity method of accounting and are reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as investments in unconsolidated affiliates.

The following are circumstances when we may consider entering into a joint venture with a third party:

oThird parties may approach us with opportunities in which they have obtained land and performed some pre-development activities, but they may not have sufficient access to the capital resources or the development and leasing expertise to bring the project to fruition. We enter into such arrangements when we determine such a project is viable and we can achieve a satisfactory return on our investment. We typically earn development fees from the joint venture and provide management and leasing services to the property for a fee once the property is placed in operation.

oWe determine that we may have the opportunity to capitalize on the value we have created in a property by selling an interest in the property to a third party. This provides us with an additional source of capital that can be used to develop or acquire additional real estate assets that we believe will provide greater potential for growth. When we retain an interest in an asset rather than selling a 100% interest, it is typically because this allows us to continue to manage the property, which provides us the ability to earn fees for management, leasing, development and financing services provided to the joint venture.

oWe also pursue opportunities to contribute available land at our properties into joint venture partnerships for development of primarily non-retail uses such as hotels, office, self-storage and multifamily. We typically partner with developers who have expertise in the non-retail property types.

Guarantees

We may guarantee the debt of a joint venture primarily because it allows the joint venture to obtain funding at a lower cost than could be obtained otherwise. This results in a higher return for the joint venture on its investment, and a higher return on our investment in the joint venture. We may receive a fee from the joint venture for providing the guaranty. Additionally, when we issue a guaranty, the terms of the joint venture agreement typically provide that we may receive indemnification from the joint venture partner or have the ability to increase our ownership interest.

See Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements for information related to our guarantees of unconsolidated affiliates' debt as of December 31, 2022 and 2021.

(1)Represents principal and interest payments due under the terms of mortgage and other indebtedness, net, and includes $991,489 of variable-rate debt service related to the secured term loan, $246,582 of variable-rate debt service related to the open-air centers and outparcels loan and $59,673 of variable-rate debt service on two operating properties. The future interest payments are projected based on the interest rates that were in effect at December 31, 2022. See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding the terms of long-term debt. The consolidated debt service less than one year includes two loans, with an aggregate principal balance of $70,419 as of December 31, 2022, secured by Alamance Crossing East and WestGate Mall that are past their maturity date. The Company is in discussion with the lenders regarding foreclosure actions.

(2)Includes $150,815 of variable-rate debt service. Future contractual obligations have been projected using the same assumptions as used in (1) above.

(3)Obligations where we own the buildings and improvements, but lease the underlying land under long-term ground leases. The maturities of these leases range from 2044 to 2089 and generally provide for renewal options.

(4)Represents the remaining balance to be incurred under construction contracts that had been entered into as of December 31, 2022, but were not complete. The contracts are primarily for redevelopment of our properties.

(5)Represents the remainder of an agreement for maintenance, security, and janitorial services at our properties that expires in September 2023.

Liquidity Sources

We derive the majority of our revenues from leases with retail tenants, which have historically been the primary source for funding short-term liquidity and capital needs such as operating expenses, debt service, tenant construction allowances, recurring capital expenditures, dividends and distributions. We believe that the combination of cash flows generated from our operations, combined with cash on hand and our investment in U.S. Treasury securities will, for the foreseeable future, provide adequate liquidity to meet our cash needs. In addition to these factors, we have options available to us to generate additional liquidity, including but not limited to, joint venture investments, financing of currently unencumbered properties and decreasing expenditures related to tenant construction allowances and other capital expenditures. We also generate revenues from sales of peripheral land at our properties and from sales of real estate assets when it is determined that we can realize an optimal value for the assets.

Cash Flows - Operating, Investing and Financing Activities

There was $141.9 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as of December 31, 2022, a decrease of $94.2 million from December 31, 2021. Of this amount, $44.7 million was unrestricted cash as of December 31, 2022. Also, at December 31, 2022, we had $292.4 million in U.S. Treasuries with maturities through November 2023. Our net cash flows are summarized as follows (in thousands):

	Successor						Predecessor
	Year Ended December 31,			For the Period November 1, through December 31,			For the Period January 1, through October 31,			Year Ended December 31,

Net cash flows	$	(94,249	)	$	(94,084	)	$	208,560		$	62,664

Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities of the Successor was $208.2 million and $57.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, respectively. Cash provided by operating activities of the Predecessor was $107.1 million and $133.4 million for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, respectively. Cash provided by operating activities of the Successor for the year ended December 31, 2022 reflects a significant increase in interest expense because we incurred interest expense on our new corporate and property-level debt during 2022. The Predecessor did not pay interest on the secured credit facility and senior unsecured notes during bankruptcy. The Successor also had higher general and administrative expenses during the year ended December 31, 2022 as we returned to normal operations and compensation practices following our emergence from bankruptcy, and because we incurred professional fees associated with loan modifications/extensions and obtained credit ratings on our secured term loan. Conversely, the Successor had higher same-center net operating income and a lower amount of reorganization items, net.

Cash (Used in) Provided by Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities of the Successor was $156.7 million and $139.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, respectively. Cash provided by investing activities of the Predecessor was $247.5 million for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. Cash used in investing activities of the Predecessor was $280.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. During the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in investing activities of the Successor was higher primarily due to the timing of the reinvestment of cash in U.S. Treasury securities. During the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, there were certain redemptions of U.S. Treasury securities where the subsequent reinvestment in additional U.S. Treasury securities did not occur until after December 31, 2021. Also, the Successor had lower proceeds from sales of real estate assets during the year ended December 31, 2022. However, the Successor had higher distributions from unconsolidated affiliates during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Cash (Used in) Provided by Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities of the Successor was $145.8 million and $12.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, respectively. Cash used in financing activities of the Predecessor was $146.0 million for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and cash provided by financing activities of the Predecessor was $209.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. During the year ended December 31, 2022, net cash used in financing activities of the Successor was higher primarily due to principal payments on the secured term loan and dividends paid on our common stock, as well as due to costs incurred to obtain new mortgage loans. Proceeds received from the new mortgage loans were used to redeem all the senior secured notes and retire two mortgage notes payable.

57

Debt

CBL has no indebtedness. Either the Operating Partnership or one of its consolidated subsidiaries, that it has a direct or indirect ownership interest in, is the borrower on all our debt.

CBL is a limited guarantor of the secured term loan as described in Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements, for losses suffered solely by reason of fraud or willful misrepresentation by the Operating Partnership or its affiliates.

The following tables summarize debt based on our pro rata ownership share, including our pro rata share of unconsolidated affiliates and excluding noncontrolling investors’ share of consolidated properties. Prior to consideration of unamortized deferred financing costs or debt discounts, of our $2,744.0 million in outstanding debt at December 31, 2022, $2,572.5 million constituted non-recourse debt obligations and $171.5 million constituted recourse debt obligations. We believe the tables below provide investors and lenders a clearer understanding of our total debt obligations and liquidity (in thousands):

The weighted-average remaining term of our total share of consolidated and unconsolidated debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, was 2.4 years and 3.3 years at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. The weighted-average remaining term of our pro rata share of fixed-rate debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, was 2.3 years and 3.2 years at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.

As of December 31, 2022, our pro rata share of consolidated and unconsolidated variable-rate debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, represented 41.0% of our total pro rata share of debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs. As of December 31, 2021, our pro rata share of consolidated and unconsolidated variable-rate debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs, represented 32.8% of our total pro rata share of debt, excluding debt discounts and deferred financing costs.

See Note 7 and Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for additional information concerning the amount and terms of our outstanding indebtedness as of December 31, 2022.

Equity

We paid common stock dividends of $0.25 per share in each of the second, third and fourth quarters of 2022. Additionally, our board of directors declared a special dividend of $2.20 per share of common stock, which was paid in cash on January 18, 2023, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 12, 2022. The decision to declare and pay dividends on any outstanding shares of our common stock, as well as the timing, amount and composition of any such future dividends, will be at the sole discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our earnings, taxable income, FFO, liquidity, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual prohibitions or other limitations under our then-current indebtedness, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, Delaware law and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant. Any dividends payable will be determined by our board of directors based upon the circumstances at the time of declaration. For additional information, see discussion presented under the subheading “Dividends” in Note 9 of this report. Our actual results of operations will be affected by a number of factors, including the revenues received from our properties, our operating expenses, interest expense, capital expenditures and the ability of the anchors and tenants at our properties to meet their obligations for payment of rents and tenant reimbursements. Subsequent to December 31, 2022, our board of directors declared a $0.375 per share regular quarterly dividend for the first quarter of 2023. See Note 20 for additional information.

On September 8, 2022, our board of directors adopted a short-term rights plan (the “Rights Plan”) that will expire on September 8, 2023, or sooner under certain circumstances. Pursuant to the Rights Plan, the board of directors authorized a dividend of one share purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of our common stock. If a person or group of affiliated or associated persons acquires beneficial ownership of 10.0% or more of our outstanding common shares, subject to certain exceptions (including exceptions for existing holders who do not increase their holdings as provided in the Rights Plan), each Right would effectively entitle its holder (other than the acquiring person or group of affiliated or associated persons) to purchase additional common shares at a substantial discount to the public market price. In addition, under certain circumstances, we may exchange the Rights (other than Rights beneficially owned by the acquiring person or group of affiliated or associated persons), in whole or in part, for common shares on a one-for-one basis, or we may redeem the Rights for cash at a price of $0.001 per Right.

As a publicly traded company, we previously accessed capital through both the public equity and debt markets. We had a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 on file with the SEC that expired in July 2021. Until we regain Form S-3 eligibility, we will be required to use a registration statement on Form S-11 to register securities with the SEC. We intend to regain eligibility to use Form S-3 as soon as is practicable; however, we cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to regain eligibility.

Total capital expenditures	$	39,517	$	4,601	$	18,275

Annual capital expenditures budgets are prepared for each of our properties that are intended to provide for all necessary recurring and non-recurring capital expenditures. We believe that property operating cash flows, which include reimbursements from tenants for certain expenses, will provide the necessary funding for these expenditures.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. In preparing our financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events, and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and the related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time our consolidated financial statements are prepared. On a regular basis, we review the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.

62

An accounting policy is deemed to be critical if it requires an accounting estimate to be made based on assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the estimate is made and if different estimates that are reasonably likely to occur could materially impact the financial statements. Management believes that the following critical accounting policies discussed in this section reflect its more significant estimates and assumptions used in preparation of the consolidated financial statements. We have reviewed these critical accounting estimates and related disclosures with the audit committee of our board of directors. See Note 2 of the consolidated financial statements, included in Item 8 of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of our significant accounting policies.

Application of Fresh Start Accounting

As described in Note 19 to the consolidated financial statements, we applied Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) ASC 852 in preparing the consolidated financial statements. For periods subsequent to the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases and before emergence, ASC 852 requires distinguishing transactions associated with the reorganization separate from activities related to the ongoing operations of the business. Upon the effectiveness of the Plan and the emergence of the Debtors from the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company determined it qualified for fresh start accounting under ASC 852, which resulted in the Company becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes on the Effective Date. We elected to apply fresh start accounting using a convenience date of October 31, 2021. We evaluated and concluded that the events on November 1, 2021 were not material to our financial reporting on both a quantitative and qualitative basis.

Enterprise Value

With the assistance of third-party valuation advisors, we determined the enterprise and corresponding equity value of the Successor using a calculation of the present value of future cash flows based on our financial projections. The enterprise value and corresponding equity value are dependent upon achieving the future financial results set forth in our valuations, as well as the realization of certain other assumptions. All estimates, assumptions, valuations and financial projections, including the fair value adjustments, the financial projections, the enterprise value and equity value projections, are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and the resolution of contingencies beyond our control. Accordingly, we cannot assure you that the estimates, assumptions, valuations or financial projections will be realized, and actual results could vary materially.

Real Estate Assets

In developing the fair value estimates for the portfolio of our retail properties, all three traditional approaches to valuation were considered including the income approach, the sales comparison (market) approach and the cost approach. These valuation approaches have long been recognized as acceptable in the appropriate circumstances and in valuations of this type. Accordingly, all applicable properties were identified, investigated and examined by the valuation provider along with all intangible assets and liabilities associated with our properties. Furthermore, the valuation provider estimated the fair values and remaining useful lives ("RUL") of the related intangible assets and liabilities at the property-level, as applicable. In most cases, our properties included the following intangible assets/liabilities:

·Above/below-market leases

·In-place leases

·Avoided lease origination costs (leasing commissions, tenant improvements, etc.)

·Property-level debt

For the valuation of the tangible assets of each property, all pertinent information such as blueprints and drawings, property tax statements, prior appraisals and cost segregation reports were utilized. In terms of methodology, our properties were valued via the income approach in order to estimate building values. Separate values for the underlying land and site improvements were developed via the cost approach. As part of the allocation process, the fair value of the following tangible components was estimated:

·Land

·Building(s)

·Site Improvements

63

Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates

The fair value of our investment in unconsolidated affiliates for fresh start accounting was determined by valuing the underlying real estate assets associated with each unconsolidated joint venture in the same manner as all real estate assets, described above. We then calculated the net asset or liability value of each joint venture by applying the net working capital balance to the fair value of the real estate assets and the amount outstanding under any associated mortgage notes. The percentage of ownership interest in each joint venture was applied to the net asset or liability value which resulted in the fair value of each unconsolidated affiliate. See Note 2 for further information related to the equity method of accounting.

Right-of-Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

The fair value of lease liabilities was measured as the present value of the remaining lease payments, as if the lease were a new lease as of the Effective Date. We used our incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) as the discount rate in determining the present value of the remaining lease payments, which was determined by a third-party valuation advisor using a fundamental credit rating analysis and an implied market yield analysis based on the newly issued Secured Notes. Based upon the corresponding lease term, the IBR was approximately 12%.

Mortgage Notes Payable

The fair value of the mortgage notes payable was estimated by a third-party valuation advisor based on an analysis of the Company’s collateral coverage, financial metrics and interest rate for each mortgage note payable relative to market rates. If there is a reasonable expectation that the debtor will be able to meet the financial obligations of the mortgage note payable, or the mortgage note payable is a recourse loan, then the value of the mortgage note is equal to the present value of the future mortgage note payments discounted at a rate of return commensurate with the risk associated with the mortgage note payments. If the debtor is unable, or if there is uncertainty if the debtor will be able, to meet the financial obligations of the mortgage note, then the value of the mortgage note payable is equal to the expected proceeds to be received through a liquidation of the underlying property at fair value.

Revenue Recognition and Accounts Receivable

Receivables include amounts billed and currently due from tenants pursuant to lease agreements and receivables attributable to straight-line rents associated with those lease agreements. Individual leases where the collection of rents is in dispute are assessed for collectability based on management’s best estimate of collection considering the anticipated outcome of the dispute. Individual leases that are not in dispute are assessed for collectability and upon the determination that the collection of rents over the remaining lease term is not probable, accounts receivable are reduced as an adjustment to rental revenues. Revenue from leases where collection is deemed to be less than probable is recorded on a cash basis until collectability is determined to be probable. Further, management assesses whether operating lease receivables, at a portfolio level, are appropriately valued based upon an analysis of balances outstanding, historical collection levels and current economic trends. An allowance for the uncollectable portion of the portfolio is recorded as an adjustment to rental revenues.

We review current economic considerations each reporting period, including the effects of tenant bankruptcies. Additionally, our assessment also takes into consideration the type of tenant and current discussions with the tenants regarding matters such as billing disputes, lease negotiations and executed deferrals or abatements, as well as recent rent payment and credit history. Evaluating and estimating uncollectable lease payments and related receivables requires a significant amount of judgment by management and is based on the best information available to management at the time of evaluation.

64

Carrying Value of Long-Lived Assets

We monitor events or changes in circumstances that could indicate the carrying value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. We use significant judgement in assessing events or circumstances which might indicate impairment, including but not limited to, changes in our intent to hold a long-lived asset over its previously estimated useful life. Changes in our intent to hold a long-lived asset have a significant impact on the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of a long-lived asset and whether a potential impairment loss shall be measured. When indicators of potential impairment are present that suggest that the carrying amounts of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, we assess the recoverability of the asset by determining whether the asset’s carrying value will be recovered through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected from our use and its eventual disposition. In the event that such undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, we adjust the carrying value of the long-lived asset to its estimated fair value and recognize an impairment loss. The estimated fair value is calculated based on the following information, in order of preference, depending upon availability: (Level 1) recently quoted market prices, (Level 2) market prices for comparable properties, or (Level 3) the present value of future cash flows, including estimated salvage value. Certain of our long-lived assets may be carried at more than an amount that could be realized in a current disposition transaction. We estimate future operating cash flows, the terminal capitalization rate and the discount rate, among other factors. As these assumptions are subject to economic and market uncertainties, they are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter the assumptions used or management’s estimates of future possible outcomes. Therefore, the future cash flows estimated in our impairment analyses may not be achieved.

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

On a periodic basis, we assess whether there are any indicators that the fair value of our investments in unconsolidated affiliates may be impaired. An investment is impaired only if our estimate of the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment, and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the fair value of the investment. Our estimates of fair value for each investment are based on a number of assumptions such as future leasing expectations, operating forecasts, discount rates and capitalization rates, among others. These assumptions are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, but not limited to, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and operating costs. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter our assumptions, the fair values estimated in the impairment analyses may not be realized.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements for information on recently issued accounting pronouncements.

Non-GAAP Measures

Funds from Operations

FFO is a widely used non-GAAP measure of the operating performance of real estate companies that supplements net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains or losses on sales of depreciable operating properties and impairment losses of depreciable properties, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and noncontrolling interests. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and noncontrolling interests are calculated on the same basis. We define FFO as defined above by NAREIT. Our method of calculating FFO may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

We believe that FFO provides an additional indicator of the operating performance of our properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assumes the value of real estate assets declines predictably over time. Since values of real estate assets have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, we believe that FFO enhances investors’ understanding of our operating performance. The use of FFO as an indicator of financial performance is influenced not only by the operations of our properties and interest rates, but also by our capital structure.

We believe FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders is a useful performance measure since we conduct substantially all our business through our Operating Partnership and, therefore, it reflects the performance of our properties in absolute terms regardless of the ratio of ownership interests of our common shareholders and the noncontrolling interest in our Operating Partnership.

In our reconciliation of net loss attributable to common shareholders to FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders that is presented below, we make an adjustment to add back noncontrolling interest in income (loss) of our Operating Partnership in order to arrive at FFO of the Operating Partnership common unitholders.

65

FFO does not represent cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP, is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) for purposes of evaluating our operating performance or to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.

We believe that it is important to identify the impact of certain significant items on our FFO measures for a reader to have a complete understanding of our results of operations. Therefore, we have also presented adjusted FFO measures excluding these significant items from the applicable periods. Please refer to the reconciliation of net loss attributable to common shareholders to FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders below for a description of these adjustments.

The reconciliation of net loss attributable to common shareholders to FFO allocable to Operating Partnership common unitholders is as follows (in thousands):

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are exposed to various market risk exposures, including interest rate risk. The following discussion regarding our risk management activities includes forward-looking statements that involve risk and uncertainties. Estimates of future performance and economic conditions are reflected assuming certain changes in interest rates. Caution should be used in evaluating our overall market risk from the information presented below, as actual results may differ.

Interest Rate Risk

Based on our proportionate share of consolidated and unconsolidated variable-rate debt at December 31, 2022, a 0.5% increase or decrease in interest rates on variable rate debt would increase or decrease annual cash flows by approximately $5.6 million.

Based on our proportionate share of total consolidated and unconsolidated debt at December 31, 2022, a 0.5% increase in interest rates would decrease the fair value of debt by approximately $14.8 million, while a 0.5% decrease in interest rates would increase the fair value of debt by approximately $9.6 million.

Conclusion Regarding Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of its effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report, to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms, and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission, and concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting, as stated in its report which is included herein.

Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the Company’s financial statements for external reporting purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, including the potential for human error or the circumvention or overriding of internal controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. In addition, any projection of the evaluation of effectiveness to future periods is subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the polices or procedures may deteriorate.

Management conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the framework established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and concluded that, as of December 31, 2022, the Company maintained effective internal control over financial reporting.

Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, as stated in their report which is included below.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the stockholders and the board of directors of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc.

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control —Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, of the Company and our report dated March 1, 2023, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

68

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Report of Management on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the shareholders and the board of directors of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive loss, equity, and cash flows, for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the two months ended December 31, 2021 (Successor Company operations), the ten months ended October 31, 2021, and for the year ended December 31, 2020 (Predecessor Company operations) and the related notes and the schedules listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the Successor Company financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the two months ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Further in our opinion, the Predecessor Company financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the ten months ended October 31, 2021, and for the year ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 1, 2023, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

Fresh-Start Accounting

As discussed in Note 18 to the financial statements, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the plan of reorganization which became effective on November 1, 2021. Accordingly, the accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with FASB Accounting Standards Codification 852, Reorganizations, for the Successor Company as a new entity with assets, liabilities and a capital structure having carrying values not comparable with prior periods as described in Note 19 to the financial statements.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

73

Real Estate Assets – Change in Management’s Intent — Refer to Note 2 to the financial statements

Critical Audit Matter Description

As of December 31, 2022, the Company owned controlling interests in 68 regional malls/open-air and lifestyle and outlet centers and 4 other properties and had a total net investment in real estate assets of $1.7 billion. The Company performs an impairment analysis on these long-lived assets if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any of its long-lived assets may not be recoverable. The Company uses significant judgement in assessing events or circumstances which might indicate impairment, including but not limited to, changes in management’s intent to hold a long-lived asset over its previously estimated useful life. Changes in management’s intent to hold a long-lived asset has a significant impact on the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of a long-lived asset and whether a potential impairment loss shall be measured.

The Company’s use of judgement in the determination of its current intentions with respect to its long-lived assets as part of their impairment indicator assessment is subjective and requires judgment. Because of this, auditing these judgements required a high degree of auditor judgment and extensive auditor effort, especially given the inherent unpredictability involved in the timing of a sale or other disposition significantly before the end of its previously estimated useful life.

How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

Our audit procedures related to changes in management’s intent with respect to its long-lived assets included the following, among others:

•We tested the effectiveness of internal controls over management’s identification of possible indicators of impairment, including controls over the more likely than not determination of changes in management’s intentions related to its long-lived assets.

•We evaluated the reasonableness of management’s assertions regarding its intentions to hold and operate its long-lived assets over its previously estimated useful lives by performing the following:

oInquired of Company personnel responsible for real estate investment strategy to determine if management’s intent regarding its long-lived assets had changed;

oInspected minutes of executive committee and board of directors meetings to identify if any long-lived assets had been identified for potential sale or disposition; and

oEvaluated the reasonableness of management’s plan for its long-lived assets with near-term debt maturities. Our evaluation of management’s plans for such long-lived assets included considering the operating results of identified long-lived assets, comparing the availability of the Company’s other available borrowings and liquid assets to the outstanding debt balance, and inquiring of management to understand the terms of any in process refinancing activities.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(In thousands, except share and unit data)

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. ("CBL"), a Delaware corporation, is a self-managed, self-administered, fully-integrated real estate investment trust ("REIT") that is engaged in the ownership, development, acquisition, leasing, management and operation of regional shopping malls, lifestyle centers, open-air centers, outlet centers, office buildings and other properties, including single-tenant and multi-tenant outparcels. Its properties are located in 22 states but are primarily in the southeastern and midwestern United States.

CBL conducts substantially all its business through CBL & Associates Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), which is a variable interest entity ("VIE"). The Operating Partnership consolidates the financial statements of all entities in which it has a controlling financial interest or where it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. As of December 31, 2022, the Operating Partnership owned interests in the following properties:

	Malls (1)		Outlet Centers (1)		Lifestyle Centers (1)		Open-Air Centers (2)		Other (2)(3)		Total
Consolidated Properties		41		2		4		21		4		72
Unconsolidated Properties (4)		6		3		1		8		1		19
Total		47		5		5		29		5		91

(1)The Company has aggregated Malls, Outlet Centers and Lifestyle Centers into one reportable segment (the “Malls”) because they have similar economic characteristics and they provide similar products and services to similar types of, and in many cases, the same tenants.

(2)Included in “All Other” for purposes of segment reporting.

(3)CBL's two consolidated corporate office buildings are included in the Other category.

(4)The Operating Partnership accounts for these investments using the equity method.

The Malls, Outlet Centers, Lifestyle Centers, Open-Air Centers and Other are collectively referred to as the “properties” and individually as a “property.”

CBL is the 100% owner of two qualified REIT subsidiaries, CBL Holdings I, Inc. and CBL Holdings II, Inc. At December 31, 2022, CBL Holdings I, Inc., the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, owned a 1.0% general partner interest in the Operating Partnership and CBL Holdings II, Inc. owned a 98.97% limited partner interest for a combined interest held by CBL of 99.97%. As of December 31, 2022, third parties owned a 0.03% limited partner interest in the Operating Partnership.

As used herein, the term "Company" includes CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including CBL & Associates Limited Partnership and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise. The term "Operating Partnership" refers to CBL & Associates Limited Partnership and its subsidiaries.

The Operating Partnership conducts the Company's property management and development activities through its wholly owned subsidiary, CBL & Associates Management, Inc. (the “Management Company"), to comply with certain requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.

Fresh Start Accounting and Reorganizations

As discussed in Note 19, upon the Company’s emergence from the voluntary petitions filed (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) under chapter 11 of title 11 (“Chapter 11”) of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”), the Company adopted fresh start accounting, which resulted in a new basis of accounting and the Company becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes. As a result of the application of fresh start accounting and the effects of the implementation of the Plan (defined below), the consolidated financial statements after November 1, 2021 (the "Effective Date"), are not comparable with the consolidated financial statements on or before that date. The lack of comparability is emphasized by the use of a “black line” to separate the Predecessor (defined below) and Successor (defined below) periods in the consolidated financial statements and footnote tables. References to “Successor” or “Successor Company” relate to the financial position and results of operations of the Company after the Effective Date. References to "Predecessor" or "Predecessor Company" refer to the financial position and results of operations of the Company on or before the Effective Date. See Note 19 for additional information.

During the Predecessor period, the Company applied Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 852 - Reorganizations (“ASC 852”) in preparing the consolidated financial statements. ASC 852 requires the financial statements, for periods subsequent to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, to distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. In addition, the Company classified all expenses, gains and losses that were incurred as a result of the Chapter 11 proceedings since filing as “Reorganization items, net” in the consolidated statements of operations.

Reclassifications

The Successor Company reclassified mortgage and other notes receivable of $384 into other receivables at December 31, 2021 to conform with the current period presentation.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Successor Company and the Predecessor Company, as well as entities in which the Successor Company or the Predecessor Company has a controlling financial interest or entities where the Successor Company or the Predecessor Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE. For entities in which the Successor Company or the Predecessor Company has less than a controlling financial interest or entities where the Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the entities are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Successor Company's or the Predecessor Company’s share of the net earnings or losses of these entities is included in consolidated net income (loss). The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted
Description	Financial Statement Effect and Other Information
Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-04 and ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform	On March 12, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or other reference rates expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. This ASU was effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. On December 21, 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06 to defer the sunset date of ASC 848 until December 31, 2024. The Successor Company has not adopted any of the optional expedients or exceptions as of December 31, 2022. The Successor Company does not anticipate needing to adopt this guidance, but will continue to monitor its contracts and evaluate the possible adoption of any such expedients or exceptions during the effective period to determine the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

82

Real Estate Assets

The Company capitalizes predevelopment project costs paid to third parties. All previously capitalized predevelopment costs are expensed when it is no longer probable that the project will be completed. Once development of a project commences, all direct costs incurred to construct the project, including interest and real estate taxes, are capitalized. Additionally, certain general and administrative expenses are allocated to the projects and capitalized based on the amount of time applicable personnel work on the development project. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Major replacements and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

All real estate assets acquired prior to and after the Effective Date have been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and accordingly, the results of operations are included in the consolidated statements of operations from the respective dates of acquisition. The Company allocates the purchase price to (i) tangible assets, consisting of land, buildings and improvements, as if vacant, and tenant improvements, and (ii) identifiable intangible assets and liabilities, generally consisting of above-market leases, in-place leases and tenant relationships, which are included in intangible lease assets and other assets, and below-market leases, which are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company uses estimates of fair value based on estimated cash flows, using appropriate discount rates, and other valuation techniques to allocate the purchase price to the acquired tangible and intangible assets. Liabilities assumed generally consist of mortgage debt on the real estate assets acquired. Assumed debt is recorded at its fair value based on estimated market interest rates at the date of acquisition. The Successor Company expects its future acquisitions will be accounted for as acquisitions of assets in which related transaction costs will be capitalized.

Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over estimated lives of 30 years for buildings, 10 to 20 years for certain improvements and 5 to 10 years for equipment and fixtures. Tenant improvements are capitalized and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease. Lease-related intangibles from acquisitions of real estate assets are generally amortized over the remaining terms of the related leases. The amortization of above- and below-market leases is recorded as an adjustment to rental revenue, while the amortization of all other lease-related intangibles is recorded as amortization expense. Any difference between the face value of the debt assumed and its fair value is amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the debt using the effective interest method.

The Successor Company’s intangibles and their balance sheet classifications as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, are summarized as follows:

	December 31, 2022					December 31, 2021
	Cost		Accumulated Amortization			Cost		Accumulated Amortization
Above-market leases	$	241,048	$	(69,783	)	$	244,575	$	(10,289	)
In-place leases		396,515		(149,018	)		412,683		(27,979	)
Intangible lease assets and other assets:
Tenant relationships		2,523		(12	)		86		—
Below-market leases		153,273		(42,657	)		158,300		(6,429	)

These intangibles are related to specific tenant leases. Should a termination occur earlier than the date indicated in the lease, the related unamortized intangible assets or liabilities, if any, related to the lease are recorded as expense or income, as applicable. The total net amortization expense of the above intangibles for the Successor Company for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $152,174. The total net amortization expense of the above intangibles for the Successor Company for the period from November 1, 2021 through December 21, 2021 was $32,164. The total net amortization expense of the above intangibles for the Predecessor Company for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 was $1,195. The total net amortization expense of the above intangibles for the Predecessor Company for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $1,460. The estimated total net amortization expense for the next five succeeding years is $104,015 in 2023, $69,814 in 2024, $46,481 in 2025, $29,913 in 2026 and $19,098 in 2027.

The Successor Company capitalized interest expense of $618 for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Successor Company capitalized interest expense of $216 during the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. The Predecessor Company did not capitalize interest expense during the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. Total interest expense capitalized during the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2020 was $1,640.

83

Accounts Receivable

Receivables include amounts billed and currently due from tenants pursuant to lease agreements and receivables attributable to straight-line rents associated with those lease agreements. Individual leases where the collection of rents is in dispute are assessed for collectability based on management’s best estimate of collection considering the anticipated outcome of the dispute. Individual leases that are not in dispute are assessed for collectability and upon the determination that the collection of rents over the remaining lease term is not probable, accounts receivable is reduced as an adjustment to rental revenues. Revenue from leases where collection is deemed to be less than probable is recorded on a cash basis until collectability is determined to be probable. Further, management assesses whether operating lease receivables, at a portfolio level, are appropriately valued based upon an analysis of balances outstanding, historical collection levels and current economic trends. An allowance for the uncollectable portion of the portfolio is recorded as an adjustment to rental revenues.

Management’s collection assessment took into consideration the type of retailer, billing disputes, lease negotiation status and executed deferral or abatement agreements, as well as recent rent collection experience and tenant bankruptcies based on the best information available to management at the time of evaluation.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, there was a reversal of $4,463 related to uncollectable revenues, which includes the write-off of $102 for straight line rent receivables. For the period November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, the Successor Company recorded $1,008 associated with uncollectable revenues, which includes $1,717 for straight line rent receivables. For the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 the Predecessor Company recorded $5,692 associated with uncollectable revenues, which includes $2,806 for straight line rent receivables. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Predecessor Company recorded $48,240 associated with uncollectable revenues, which includes $5,603 for straight line rent receivables.

Carrying Value of Long-Lived Assets

The Company monitors events or changes in circumstances that could indicate the carrying value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. The Company uses significant judgement in assessing events or circumstances which might indicate impairment, including but not limited to, changes in management’s intent to hold a long-lived asset over its previously estimated useful life. Changes in management’s intent to hold a long-lived asset have a significant impact on the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of a long-lived asset and whether a potential impairment loss shall be measured. When indicators of potential impairment are present that suggest that the carrying amounts of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the Company assesses the recoverability of the asset by determining whether the asset’s carrying value will be recovered through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected from the Company’s use and its eventual disposition. In the event that such undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, the Company adjusts the carrying value of the long-lived asset to its estimated fair value and recognizes an impairment loss. The estimated fair value is calculated based on the following information, in order of preference, depending upon availability: (Level 1) recently quoted market prices, (Level 2) market prices for comparable properties, or (Level 3) the present value of future cash flows, including estimated salvage value. Certain of the Company’s long-lived assets may be carried at more than an amount that could be realized in a current disposition transaction. The Company estimates future operating cash flows, the terminal capitalization rate and the discount rate, among other factors. As these assumptions are subject to economic and market uncertainties, they are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter the assumptions used or management’s estimates of future possible outcomes. Therefore, the future cash flows estimated in the Company’s impairment analyses may not be achieved. See Note 15 for information related to the impairment of long-lived assets in 2022, 2021 and 2020.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less as cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash of $97,231 and $66,644 was included in intangible lease assets and other assets at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, restricted cash was related to cash held in escrow accounts for insurance, real estate taxes, capital expenditures and tenant allowances as required by the terms of certain mortgage notes payable, as well as amounts related to cash management agreements with the Company’s lenders that are designated for debt service and operating expense obligations. As of December 31, 2022, restricted cash was also related to properties that secure the corporate term loan and the open-air centers and outparcels loan of which we may receive a portion via distributions semiannually and quarterly in accordance with the provisions of the term loan and the open-air centers and outparcels loan, respectively.

84

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

The Company evaluates its joint venture arrangements to determine whether they should be recorded on a consolidated basis. The percentage of ownership interest in the joint venture, an evaluation of control and whether a VIE exists are all considered in the Company’s consolidation assessment.

Initial investments in joint ventures that are in economic substance a capital contribution to the joint venture are recorded in an amount equal to the cash contributed by the Company and the fair value of any real estate contributed. Initial investments in joint ventures that are in economic substance the sale of a portion of the Company’s interest in the real estate are accounted for as a contribution of real estate recorded in an amount equal to the fair value of the ownership interest retained and as a sale of real estate with profit recognized to the extent of the other joint venture partners’ interests in the joint venture. Profit recognition assumes the Company has no commitment to reinvest with respect to the percentage of the real estate sold and the accounting requirements of the full accrual method are met.

The Company accounts for its investment in joint ventures where it owns a noncontrolling interest or where it is not the primary beneficiary of a VIE using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the Company’s cost of investment is adjusted for additional contributions to and distributions from the unconsolidated affiliate, as well as its share of equity in the earnings of the unconsolidated affiliate. Generally, distributions of cash flows from operations and capital events are first made to partners to pay cumulative unpaid preferences on unreturned capital balances and then to the partners in accordance with the terms of the joint venture agreements.

On a periodic basis, the Company assesses whether there are any indicators that the fair value of the Company's investments in unconsolidated affiliates may be impaired. An investment is impaired only if the Company’s estimate of the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the estimated fair value of the investment. The Company's estimates of fair value for each investment are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, but not limited to, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and operating costs. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter the Company’s assumptions, the fair values estimated in the impairment analyses may not be realized. No impairment charges were recorded for the Successor year ended December 31, 2022 and the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. No impairment charges were recorded for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2020.

Deferred Financing Costs

During 2020, as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, unamortized financing costs of $16,779 related to the Predecessor Company's secured credit facility and senior unsecured notes were charged to expense and were recorded as “Reorganization items, net” within the Predecessor Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Unamortized financing costs of $17,101 and $1,568 for the Successor Company were included in mortgage and other indebtedness, net, at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Deferred financing costs include fees and costs incurred to obtain financing and are amortized on a straight-line basis to interest expense over the terms of the related indebtedness. Amortization expense related to deferred financing costs for the Successor Company for the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021 was $2,744 and $51, respectively. Amortization expense related to deferred financing costs for the Predecessor Company for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 was $814 and $5,476, respectively. Accumulated amortization of deferred financing costs was $2,733 and $19 for the Successor Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. See Note 19 for information regarding unamortized financing costs that were charged to expense in connection with Fresh Start Accounting.

Revenue Recognition

See Note 3 and Note 4 for a description of the Company's revenue streams.

Gain on Sales of Real Estate Assets

Gains on the sale of real estate assets, like all non-lease related revenue, are subject to a five-step model requiring that the Company identify the contract with the customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and recognize revenue upon satisfaction of the performance obligations. In circumstances where the Company contracts to sell a property with material post-sale involvement, such involvement must be accounted for as a separate performance obligation in the contract and a portion of the sales price allocated to each performance obligation. When the post-sale involvement performance obligation is satisfied, the portion of the sales price allocated to it will be recognized as gain on sale of real estate assets. Property dispositions with no continuing involvement will continue to be recognized upon closing of the sale.

85

Income Taxes

The Company is qualified as a REIT under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. To maintain qualification as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to shareholders and meet certain other requirements.

As a REIT, the Company is generally not liable for federal corporate income taxes. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to federal and state income taxes on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. Even if the Company maintains its qualification as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor Company had state tax expense of $1,631. The Successor Company had state tax expense of $142 for the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. State tax expense for the Predecessor Company was $2,992 during the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. State tax expense for the Predecessor Company was $2,882 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The Company has also elected taxable REIT subsidiary status for some of its subsidiaries. This enables the Company to receive income and provide services that would otherwise be impermissible for REITs. For these entities, deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is provided if the Company believes all or some portion of the deferred tax asset may not be realized. An increase or decrease in the valuation allowance that results from the change in circumstances that causes a change in the Company’s judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset is included in income or expense, as applicable.

The Successor and Predecessor Company recorded an income tax (provision) benefit as follows:

	Successor						Predecessor
	Year Ended December 31,			For the Period November 1, through December 31,			For the Period January 1, through October 31,			Year Ended December 31,
	2022			2021			2021			2020
Current tax provision	$	(1,951	)	$	(4,968	)	$	(1,078	)	$	(2,278	)
Deferred tax (provision) benefit		(1,128	)		10,853			—			(14,558	)
Income tax (provision) benefit	$	(3,079	)	$	5,885		$	(1,078	)	$	(16,836	)

The Successor Company had a net deferred tax asset of $9,726 and $10,853 at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2022 and 2021 is included in intangible lease assets and other assets. As of December 31, 2022, tax years that generally remain subject to examination by the Company’s major tax jurisdictions include 2022, 2021, 2020 and 2019.

The Company reports any income tax penalties attributable to its properties as property operating expenses and any corporate-related income tax penalties as general and administrative expenses in its consolidated statements of operations. In addition, any interest incurred on tax assessments is reported as interest expense. The Successor Company incurred nominal interest and penalty amounts during the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. The Predecessor Company incurred nominal interest and penalty amounts during the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company’s tenants include national, regional and local retailers. Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of tenant receivables. The Company generally does not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk, but it monitors the credit standing of tenants. The Company derives a substantial portion of its rental income from various national and regional retail companies; however, no single tenant collectively accounted for more than 5.0% of the Successor Company’s revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022.

86

Earnings per Share

Earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated under the two-class method. Under the two-class method, all earnings (distributed and undistributed) are allocated to common stock and participating securities. The Company grants restricted stock awards to certain employees under its share-based compensation program, which entitle recipients to receive nonforfeitable dividends during the vesting period on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of common stock. These unvested restricted stock awards meet the definition of participating securities based on their respective rights to receive nonforfeitable dividends.

Diluted EPS incorporates the potential impact of contingently issuable shares. Diluted EPS is calculated under both the two-class and treasury stock methods, and the more dilutive amount is reported. Performance stock units ("PSUs") and unvested restricted stock awards are contingently issuable common shares and are included in diluted EPS if the effect is dilutive. See Note 16 for a description of the long-term incentive program that these units relate to.

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted EPS (in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Successor						Predecessor
	Year Ended December 31,			Period from November 1, through December 31,			Period from January 1, through October 31,			Year Ended December 31,
	2022			2021			2021			2020
Basic earnings per share
Net loss attributable to the Company	$	(93,482	)	$	(151,545	)	$	(470,627	)	$	(295,084	)
Less: Preferred dividends undeclared		—			—			—			(37,410	)
Less: Dividends allocable to unvested restricted stock		(2,537	)		—			—			—
Net loss attributable to common shareholders	$	(96,019	)	$	(151,545	)	$	(470,627	)	$	(332,494	)
Weighted-average basic shares outstanding		30,046			20,208			196,591			190,277
Net loss per share attributable to common shareholders	$	(3.20	)	$	(7.50	)	$	(2.39	)	$	(1.75	)
Diluted earnings per share (1)
Net loss attributable to common shareholders	$	(96,019	)	$	(151,545	)	$	(470,627	)	$	(332,494	)
Weighted-average basic shares outstanding		30,046			20,208			196,591			190,277
Net loss per share attributable to common shareholders	$	(3.20	)	$	(7.50	)	$	(2.39	)	$	(1.75	)

(1)Due to a net loss for the Successor year ended December 31, 2022, the computation of diluted EPS does not include contingently issuable shares due to their anti-dilutive nature. Had the Successor reported net income for the year ended December 31, 2022, the denominator for diluted EPS would have been 30,206,521, including 160,098 contingently issuable shares related to PSUs and unvested restricted stock awards. There were no potential dilutive common shares and there were no anti-dilutive shares for the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. There were no potential dilutive common shares and there were no anti-dilutive shares for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and for the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2020.

87

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Operating expense reimbursements

Under operating and other agreements with third parties, which own anchor or outparcel buildings at the Company's properties and pay no rent, the Company receives reimbursements for certain operating expenses such as ring road and parking area maintenance, landscaping and other fees. These arrangements are primarily either set at a fixed rate with rate increases typically every five years or are on a variable (pro rata) basis, typically as a percentage of costs allocated based on square footage or sales. The majority of these contracts have an initial term and one or more extension options, which cumulatively approximate 50 or more years as historically the initial term and any extension options are typically reasonably certain of being executed by the third party. The standalone selling price of each performance obligation is determined based on the terms of the contract, which typically assigns a price to each performance obligation that directly relates to the value the customer receives for the services being provided. Revenue is recognized as services are transferred to the customer. Variable consideration is based on historical experience and is generally recognized over time using the cost-to-cost method of measurement because it most accurately depicts the Company's performance in satisfying the performance obligation. The cumulative catch-up method is used to recognize any adjustments in variable consideration estimates. Under this method, any adjustment is recognized in the period it is identified.

88

Management, development and leasing fees

The Company earns revenue from contracts with third parties and unconsolidated affiliates for property management, leasing, development and other services. These contracts are accounted for on a month-to-month basis if the agreement does not contain substantive penalties for termination. The majority of the Company's contracts with customers are accounted for on a month-to-month basis. The standalone selling price of each performance obligation is determined based on the terms of the contract, which typically assigns a price to each performance obligation that directly relates to the value the customer receives for the services being provided. These contracts generally are for the following:

•Management fees - Management fees are charged as a percentage of revenues (as defined in the contract) and recognized as revenue over time as services are provided.

•Leasing fees - Leasing fees are charged for newly executed leases and lease renewals and are recognized as revenue upon lease execution, when the performance obligation is completed. In cases for which the agreement specifies 50% of the leasing commission will be paid upon lease execution with the remainder paid when the tenant opens, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration it expects to receive by evaluating the likelihood of tenant openings using the most likely amount method and records the amount as an unbilled receivable (contract asset).

•Development fees - Development fees may be either set as a fixed rate in a separate agreement or be a variable rate based on a percentage of project costs. Variable consideration related to development fees is generally recognized over time using the cost-to-cost method of measurement because it most accurately depicts the Company's performance in satisfying the performance obligation. Contract estimates are based on various assumptions including the cost and availability of materials, anticipated performance and the complexity of the work to be performed. The cumulative catch-up method is used to recognize any adjustments in variable consideration estimates. Under this method, any adjustment is recognized in the period it is identified.

Development and leasing fees received from an unconsolidated affiliate are recognized as revenue only to the extent of the third-party partner’s ownership interest. The Company's share of such fees are recorded as a reduction to the Company’s investment in the unconsolidated affiliate.

Marketing revenues

The Company earns marketing revenues from advertising and sponsorship agreements. These fees may be for tangible items in which the Company provides advertising services and creates signs and other promotional materials for the tenant or may be arrangements in which the customer sponsors a play area or event and receives specified brand recognition and other benefits over a set period of time. Revenue related to advertising services is recognized as goods and services are provided to the customer. Sponsorship revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the time period specified in the contract.

Performance obligations

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to a customer. If the contract does not specify the revenue by performance obligation, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Such prices are generally determined using prices charged to customers or using the Company’s expected cost plus margin. Revenue is recognized as the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied over time, as services are provided, or at a point in time, such as leasing a space to earn a commission. Open performance obligations are those in which the Company has not fully or has partially provided the applicable good or services to the customer as specified in the contract. If consideration is received in advance of the Company’s performance, including amounts which are refundable, recognition of revenue is deferred until the performance obligation is satisfied or amounts are no longer refundable.

Outstanding Performance Obligations

The Company has outstanding performance obligations related to certain noncancellable contracts with customers for which it will receive fixed operating expense reimbursements for providing certain maintenance and other services as described above. As of December 31, 2022, the Company expects to recognize these amounts as revenue over the following periods:

Performance obligation	Less than 5 years		5-20 years		Over 20 years		Total
Fixed operating expense reimbursements	$	20,872	$	47,180	$	42,875	$	110,927

89

The Company evaluates its performance obligations each period and makes adjustments to reflect any known additions or cancellations. Performance obligations related to variable consideration, which is based on sales, are constrained.

NOTE 4. LEASES

Lessor

Rental Revenues

The majority of the Company’s revenues are earned through the lease of space at its properties. All the Company's leases with tenants for the use of space at its properties are classified as operating leases. Rental revenues include minimum rent, percentage rent, other rents and reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance ("CAM") and other operating expenses as provided in the lease agreements. The option to extend or terminate the Company’s leases is specific to each underlying tenant lease agreement. Typically, the Company's leases contain penalties for early termination. The Company doesn't have any leases that convey the right for the lessee to purchase the leased asset.

Minimum rental revenue from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the initial terms of the related leases. Certain tenants are required to pay percentage rent if their sales volumes exceed thresholds specified in their lease agreements. Percentage rent is recognized as revenue when the thresholds are achieved and the amounts become determinable.

The Company receives reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes, insurance, CAM and other recoverable operating expenses as provided in the lease agreements. Any tenant reimbursements that require fixed payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the initial terms of the related leases, whereas any variable payments are recognized when earned in accordance with the tenant lease agreements. Tenant reimbursements related to certain capital expenditures are billed to tenants over periods of 5 to 15 years.

The components of rental revenues are as follows:

	Successor				Predecessor
	Year Ended December 31,		For the Period November 1, through December 31,		For the Period January 1, through October 31,		Year Ended December 31,
	2022		2021		2021		2020
Fixed lease payments	$	396,755	$	75,740	$	271,221	$	459,958
Variable lease payments		145,492		27,512		179,701		94,106
Total rental revenues	$	542,247	$	103,252	$	450,922	$	554,064

The undiscounted future fixed lease payments to be received under the Company's operating leases as of December 31, 2022, are as follows:

Years Ending December 31,	Operating Leases
2023	$	366,633
2024		294,854
2025		229,284
2026		171,650
2027		121,611
Thereafter		266,165

Variable Interest Entities

The Operating Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries are deemed to have the characteristics of a VIE primarily because the limited partners of these entities do not collectively possess substantive kick-out or participating rights.

Generally, a VIE is a legal entity in which the equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or the equity investors lack sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. A limited partnership is considered a VIE when the majority of the limited partners unrelated to the general partner possess neither the right to remove the general partner without cause, nor proportionate rights to participate in the decisions that most significantly affect the financial results of the partnership. The Company consolidates the Operating Partnership, which is a VIE, for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company, through the Operating Partnership, consolidates all VIEs for which it is the primary beneficiary. In determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company considers qualitative and quantitative factors, including, but not limited to: which activities most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and which party controls such activities; the amount and characteristics of the Company's investment; the obligation or likelihood for the Company or other investors to provide financial support; and the similarity with and significance to the Company's business activities and the business activities of the other investors.

Consolidated VIEs

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had investments in 11 consolidated VIEs with ownership interests ranging from 50% to 92%.

See Note 14 for a description of guarantees the Operating Partnership has issued related to the unconsolidated affiliates.

NOTE 8. MORTGAGE AND OTHER INDEBTEDNESS, NET

CBL has no indebtedness. Either the Operating Partnership or one of its consolidated subsidiaries that it has a direct or indirect ownership interest in is the borrower on all the Company's debt.

Proceeds from the loan were used to complete the redemption of all $335,000 outstanding on the Secured Notes, which eliminated the recourse guaranty. Also, proceeds were used to paydown $8,322 on the Brookfield Square Anchor Redevelopment loan, which had an outstanding balance of $18,240 as of December 31, 2022.

In June 2022, the Company paid off the $14,949 loan secured by CBL Center at maturity.

In August 2022, the loan secured by Parkdale Mall and Crossing was extended to March 2026. As of December 31, 2022, the loan secured by Parkdale Mall and Crossing had a balance of $63,136.

In October 2022, the loan secured by The Outlet Shoppes at Gettysburg was modified after the lender's claim against the general unsecured claim pool related to the Chapter 11 Cases was allowed. The loan balance was reduced to $21,000 and the corporate recourse was eliminated. The fixed interest rate of 4.80% and the maturity date of October 2025 remain unchanged. The modification resulted in the loan being treated as a new loan for accounting purposes, which resulted in the recognition of gain on extinguishment of debt of $7,344. As of December 31, 2022, the loan secured by Outlet Shoppes at Gettysburg had a balance of $20,974.

In October 2022, the Company entered into a short-term extension with the lender regarding the loan secured by Cross Creek Mall. This action extended the maturity date to January 5, 2023. The Company remains in discussions with the lender regarding a long term extension. As of December 31, 2022, the loan secured by Cross Creek Mall had a balance of $97,431.

In October 2022, the Company reached an agreement with the lender to extend the loan secured by Southpark Mall through June 2026, as well as waive the default triggered by the Company's bankruptcy filing. As of December 31, 2022, the loan secured by Southpark Mall had a balance of $54,022.

In October 2022, the Company entered into a loan reinstatement and reaffirmation agreement with the lender regarding the loan secured by Jefferson Mall, which waived the default triggered by the Company's bankruptcy filing. As of December 31, 2022, the loan secured by Jefferson Mall had a balance of $55,817.

Variable-Rate Property Debt

Two non-recourse loans secured by operating properties, totaling $56,490, mature in 2023. The two non-recourse loans and the open-air centers and outparcels loan bear interest at a variable interest rate indexed to LIBOR and SOFR, respectively. At December 31, 2022, the interest rates ranged from 7.02% to 8.22%.

2021 Modifications

In May 2021, the subsidiary that owns The Outlet Shoppes at Laredo filed for bankruptcy. In September 2021, the Company reached an agreement with the lender to amend the loan secured by The Outlet Shoppes at Laredo and dismiss the bankruptcy case. The loan term was extended through June 2023 and contains a one-year extension option.

In October 2021, Brookfield Square Anchor S, LLC filed for bankruptcy. In December 2021, the Company reached an agreement with the lender to amend the loan secured by the Brookfield Square anchor redevelopment and dismiss the bankruptcy case. The loan term was extended through December 2023 and contains a one-year extension option.

Other

Several of the Company’s properties are owned by special purpose entities, created as a requirement under certain loan agreements that are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The sole business purpose of the special purpose entities is to own and operate these properties. The real estate and other assets owned by these special purpose entities are restricted under the loan agreements in that they are not available to settle other debts of the Company. However, so long as the loans are not under an event of default, as defined in the loan agreements, the cash flows from these properties, after payments of debt service, operating expenses and reserves, are available for distribution to the Company.

Scheduled Principal Payments

As of December 31, 2022, the scheduled principal amortization and balloon payments of the Company’s consolidated debt, excluding extensions available at the Company’s option, on all mortgage and other indebtedness, are as follows:

(1)Represents the aggregate principal balance as of December 31, 2022 of the loans secured by Alamance Crossing East and Westgate Mall, which are in maturity default. The Company is in discussions with the lender regarding the loans secured by these properties. The loan secured by Alamance Crossing East matured in July 2021 and had a balance of $41,417 as of December 31, 2022. The loan secured by Westgate Mall matured in July 2022 and had a balance of $29,002 as of December 31, 2022.

Of the $321,695 of scheduled principal payments in 2023, $281,489 relates to the maturing principal balance of four operating property loans.

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $553,910 of property-level debt and related obligations, including unconsolidated debt and related obligations, maturing or callable within the next 12 months from the issuance of the financial statements. Management is in discussions with the lenders regarding foreclosure actions for two properties totaling $70,419 of mortgage notes payable and intends to refinance and/or extend the maturity dates for the remaining $483,492 of such mortgage notes payable. In instances where a refinancing and/or extension of maturity dates is unsuccessful the Company will repay certain of the mortgage notes based on the availability of liquidity and convey certain properties to the lender to satisfy the debt obligation.

NOTE 9. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock and Common Units

The Successor Company's authorized common stock consists of 200,000,000 shares at $0.001 par value per share. The Successor Company had 31,780,109 and 20,774,716 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

99

On September 8, 2022, the Company's board of directors adopted a short-term rights plan (the “Rights Plan”) that will expire on September 8, 2023, or sooner under certain circumstances. Pursuant to the Rights Plan, the board of directors authorized a dividend of one share purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of the Company's common stock. If a person or group of affiliated or associated persons acquires beneficial ownership of 10.0% or more of the Company's outstanding common shares, subject to certain exceptions (including exceptions for existing holders who do not increase their holdings as provided in the Rights Plan), each Right would effectively entitle its holder (other than the acquiring person or group of affiliated or associated persons) to purchase additional common shares at a substantial discount to the public market price. In addition, under certain circumstances, the Company may exchange the Rights (other than Rights beneficially owned by the acquiring person or group of affiliated or associated persons), in whole or in part, for common shares on a one-for-one basis, or the Company may redeem the Rights for cash at a price of $0.001 per Right.

On the Effective Date, by operation of the Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and its Affiliated Debtors (With Technical Modifications) (as modified at Docket No. 1521, the “Plan”), all agreements, instruments, and other documents evidencing, relating to or connected with any equity interests of the Company, including (1) CBL’s old common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and CBL’s old preferred stock and related depositary shares and (2) the Operating Partnership’s old limited partnership common interests and the old limited partnership preferred interests related to CBL’s old preferred stock, in each case issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date, and any rights of any holder in respect thereof, were deemed cancelled, discharged and of no force or effect.

On the Effective Date, (1) CBL issued (i) 1,089,717 shares of new common stock to (a) existing holders of the old common stock and (b) certain of the existing holders of the old limited partnership common interests that have elected to receive shares of new common stock in exchange for old limited partnership common interests, (ii) 1,100,000 shares of new common stock to existing holders of the old preferred stock, (iii) 15,685,714 shares of new common stock to existing holders of the $450,000 of senior unsecured notes issued by the Operating Partnership in November 2013 that bear interest at 5.25% and mature on December 1, 2023 (the “2023 Notes”), the $300,000 of senior unsecured notes issued by the Operating Partnership in October 2014 that bear interest at 4.60% and mature on October 15, 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) and the $625,000 of senior unsecured notes issued by the Operating Partnership in December 2016 and September 2017 that bear interest at 5.95% and mature on December 15, 2026 (the “2026 Notes” and, collectively with the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes, the "Notes") and other general unsecured claims, and (iv) 2,114,286 shares of new common stock to existing holders of consenting crossholder claims and (2) the Operating Partnership cancelled all of its old limited partnership common interests and issued 200,000 new common units of general partnership interests, 19,789,717 new common units of limited partnership interest to subsidiaries of CBL and 10,283 new common units of limited partner interests to certain of the existing holders of old limited partnership common interests that have elected to remain limited partners in the Operating Partnership. On the Effective Date, CBL had an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of new common stock issued and outstanding (on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to any future election to exchange all new limited partnership interests for new common stock). On November 2, 2021, the newly issued common stock of the reorganized company commenced trading on the NYSE under the symbol CBL.

Partners in the Operating Partnership hold their ownership through common units of limited partnership interest, hereinafter referred to as "common units." A common unit and a share of CBL's common stock have essentially the same economic characteristics, as they effectively participate equally in the net income and distributions of the Operating Partnership. For each share of common stock issued by CBL, the Operating Partnership has issued a corresponding number of common units to CBL in exchange for the proceeds from the stock issuance.

Each limited partner in the Operating Partnership has the right to exchange all or a portion of its common units for shares of CBL's common stock, or at the Company's election, their cash equivalent. When an exchange for common stock occurs, the Company assumes the limited partner's common units in the Operating Partnership. The number of shares of common stock received by a limited partner of the Operating Partnership upon exercise of its exchange rights will be equal, on a one-for-one basis, to the number of common units exchanged by the limited partner. If the Company elects to pay cash, the amount of cash paid by the Operating Partnership to redeem the limited partner's common units will be based on the five-day trailing average of the trading price, at the time of exchange, of the shares of common stock that would otherwise have been received by the limited partner in the exchange. Neither the common units nor the shares of CBL's common stock are subject to any right of mandatory redemption.

Dividends

In June 2022, the board of directors established a regular quarterly dividend. The Company paid common stock dividends of $0.25 per share for each of the second, third and fourth quarters of 2022. The Successor Company did not pay any dividends to holders of its common shares payable for the period November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. The Predecessor Company did not pay any dividends to holders of its common shares payable for the period January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020.

100

In November 2022, the board of directors declared a special dividend of $2.20 per share of common stock, payable all in cash. The special dividend was paid on January 18, 2023, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 12, 2022.

The decision to declare and pay dividends on any outstanding shares of our common stock, as well as the timing, amount and composition of any such future dividends, will be at the sole discretion of the Company's board of directors and will depend on the Company's earnings, taxable income, cash flows, liquidity, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual prohibitions or other limitations under the Company's then-current indebtedness, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, Delaware law and such other factors as the Company's board of directors deems relevant. Any dividends payable will be determined by the Company's board of directors based upon the circumstances at the time of declaration. The Company's actual results of operations will be affected by a number of factors, including the revenues received from its properties, its operating expenses, interest expense, unanticipated capital expenditures and the ability of its anchors and tenants at its properties to meet their obligations for payment of rents and tenant reimbursements.

For purposes of determining net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders, the Predecessor Company disclosed the cumulation of undeclared dividends on its depositary shares each representing a 1/10th fractional share of the Company’s 7.375% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series D Preferred Stock”) and the depositary shares each representing a 1/10th fractional share of the Company’s 6.625% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series E Preferred Stock”). The undeclared dividends on the Predecessor Company’s Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock ceased to cumulate as of November 1, 2020 as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases.

The allocations of dividends declared and paid for income tax purposes for 2022 are as follows (income tax allocations are not applicable in 2021 or 2020 due to the Company not paying any dividends in those years):

	Year Ended December 31,
	2022
Dividends declared:
Common stock	$	2.95
Allocations:

Ordinary income		98.58	%

Total		100.00	%

NOTE 10. NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

Noncontrolling Interests of the Company

Third parties held rights to convert noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership to 10,283 shares of common stock at December 31, 2022 and 2021.

The assets and liabilities allocated to the Operating Partnership’s noncontrolling interests are based on their ownership percentages of the Operating Partnership at December 31, 2022 and 2021. The ownership percentages are determined by dividing the number of common units held by each of the noncontrolling interests at December 31, 2022 and 2021 by the total common units outstanding at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The noncontrolling interest ownership percentage in assets and liabilities of the Successor Operating Partnership was 0.03% and 0.01% at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Income is allocated to the Operating Partnership’s noncontrolling interests based on their weighted-average ownership during the year. The ownership percentages are determined by dividing the weighted-average number of common units held by each of the noncontrolling interests by the total weighted-average number of common units outstanding during the year.

101

A change in the number of shares of common stock or common units changes the percentage ownership of all partners of the Operating Partnership. A common unit is considered to be equivalent to a share of common stock since it generally is exchangeable for shares of the Company’s common stock or, at the Company’s election, their cash equivalent. As a result, an allocation is made between shareholders’ equity and noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership in the Successor Company's accompanying balance sheets to reflect the change in ownership of the Operating Partnership’s underlying equity when there is a change in the number of shares and/or common units outstanding. During the period January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, the Predecessor Company allocated $865 and $6,002, respectively, from shareholders' equity to noncontrolling interest. During the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, the Predecessor Company allocated $6 and $302, respectively, from shareholders' equity to redeemable noncontrolling interest. There is no redeemable noncontrolling interest related to the Successor Company.

The total noncontrolling interest in the Successor Operating Partnership was $121 and $282 at December 31, 2022, and 2021 respectively.

Noncontrolling Interests in Other Consolidated Subsidiaries

The Successor Company had 11 and 12 other consolidated subsidiaries at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, that had noncontrolling interests held by third parties and for which the related partnership agreements either do not include redemption provisions or are subject to redemption provisions that do not require classification outside of permanent equity. The total noncontrolling interests in other consolidated subsidiaries of the Successor Company was $(3,533) and $4,618 at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The assets and liabilities allocated to noncontrolling interests in other consolidated subsidiaries of the Successor Company are based on the third parties’ ownership percentages in each subsidiary at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Income is allocated to noncontrolling interests in other consolidated subsidiaries based on the third parties’ weighted-average ownership in each subsidiary during the year.

Variable Interest Entities (VIE)

The Operating Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries are deemed to have the characteristics of a VIE primarily because the limited partners of these entities do not collectively possess substantive kick-out or participating rights.

Generally, a VIE is a legal entity in which the equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or the equity investors lack sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. A limited partnership is considered a VIE when the majority of the limited partners unrelated to the general partner possess neither the right to remove the general partner without cause, nor proportionate rights to participate in the decisions that most significantly affect the financial results of the partnership. The Company consolidates the Operating Partnership, which is a VIE, for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company, through the Operating Partnership, consolidates all VIEs for which it is the primary beneficiary. In determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company considers qualitative and quantitative factors, including, but not limited to: which activities most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and which party controls such activities; the amount and characteristics of the Company's investment; the obligation or likelihood for the Company or other investors to provide financial support; and the similarity with and significance to the Company's business activities and the business activities of the other investors.

NOTE 11. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company measures performance and allocates resources according to property type, which is determined based on certain criteria such as type of tenants, capital requirements, economic risks, leasing terms, and short- and long-term returns on capital. Rental income and tenant reimbursements from tenant leases provide the majority of revenues from all segments. The Company has aggregated malls, lifestyle centers and outlet centers into one reportable segment ("Malls") because they have similar economic characteristics and the Company provides similar products and services to similar types of, and in many cases, the same, tenants. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2.

NOTE 13. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Management Company provides management, development and leasing services to the Company’s unconsolidated affiliates and other affiliated partnerships. The Successor Company recognized revenues for these services in the amount of $6,449 for the year ended December 31, 2022 and $1,136 for the period November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. The Predecessor Company recognized revenues for these services in the amount of $4,965 for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021, and $4,940 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

NOTE 14. CONTINGENCIES

Securities Litigation

The Company and certain of its officers and directors were named as defendants in three putative securities class action lawsuits (collectively, the “Securities Class Action Litigation”), each filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee, on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s securities during a specified period of time. Those cases were consolidated on July 17, 2019, under the caption In re CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. Securities Litigation, 1:19-cv-00149-JRG-CHS, and a consolidated amended complaint was filed on November 5, 2019, seeking to represent a class of purchasers from July 29, 2014 through March 26, 2019.

106

The operative complaint filed in the Securities Class Action Litigation alleges violations of the securities laws, including, among other things, that the defendants made certain materially false and misleading statements and omissions regarding the Company’s contingent liabilities, business, operations, and prospects during the period of time specified above. The plaintiffs seek compensatory damages and attorneys’ fees and costs, among other relief, but have not specified the amount of damages sought. On May 3, 2022, the court dismissed the Company from the Securities Class Action Litigation but declined to dismiss the individual defendants. The court also lifted the stay of the proceedings and, on June 9, 2022, entered a scheduling order. Plaintiffs’ motion for class certification, which was opposed, was fully briefed and pending as of December 31, 2022. Following a January 31, 2023 mediation before a private mediator, the parties reached an agreement in principle to resolve the Securities Class Action Litigation, subject to documentation and court approval. The putative settlement is expected to be fully funded by directors and officers liability insurance, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, with no contribution expected from the Company or the individual defendants. By agreeing to resolve the matter in principle, neither the Company nor any of the individual defendants are admitting any liability or wrongdoing, and they have expressly denied both. Rather, defendants entered into the agreement in principle to eliminate the risks, costs, and distractions associated with further litigation of this matter.

The outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty.

On January 12, 2023, a purported shareholder filed a putative class action lawsuit captioned John Haynes v. Charles B. Lebovitz, et al., C.A. No. 2023-0033-NAC, in the Delaware Court of Chancery (the “Delaware Action”), naming the Company and certain directors as defendants. The Delaware Action alleged a claim against the Company for violation of Delaware General Corporation Law § 213(a) due to an improper record date for the 2022 annual meeting, and a claim for breach of fiduciary duty against the director defendants. The Delaware Action sought, among other things, a declaration that the directors breached their fiduciary duties, an equitable accounting, unspecified monetary relief, and attorneys’ fees. Defendants denied that any such relief was warranted, and on February 15, 2023, the Delaware Action was voluntarily dismissed.

The Company is currently involved in certain other litigation that arises in the ordinary course of business, most of which is expected to be covered by liability insurance. Management makes assumptions and estimates concerning the likelihood and amount of any potential loss relating to these matters using the latest information available. The Company records a liability for litigation if an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. If an unfavorable outcome is probable and a reasonable estimate of the loss is a range, the Company accrues the best estimate within the range. If no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, the Company accrues the minimum amount within the range. If an unfavorable outcome is probable but the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the nature of the litigation and indicates that an estimate of the loss or range of loss cannot be made. If an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and the estimated loss is material, the Company discloses the nature and estimate of the possible loss of the litigation. Based on current expectations, such matters, both individually and in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the liquidity, results of operations, business or financial condition of the Company.

Environmental Contingencies

The Company evaluates potential loss contingencies related to environmental matters using the same criteria described above related to litigation matters. Based on current information, an unfavorable outcome concerning such environmental matters, both individually and in the aggregate, is considered to be reasonably possible. However, the Company believes its maximum potential exposure to loss would not be material to its results of operations or financial condition. The Company has a master insurance policy that provides coverage through 2027 for certain environmental claims up to $40,000 per occurrence and up to $40,000 in the aggregate, subject to deductibles and certain exclusions. At certain locations, individual policies are in place.

Guarantees

The Operating Partnership may guarantee the debt of a joint venture primarily because it allows the joint venture to obtain funding at a lower cost than could be obtained otherwise. This results in a higher return for the joint venture on its investment, and a higher return on the Operating Partnership's investment in the joint venture. The Operating Partnership may receive a fee from the joint venture for providing the guaranty. Additionally, when the Operating Partnership issues a guaranty, the terms of the joint venture agreement typically provide that the Operating Partnership may receive indemnification from the joint venture partner or have the ability to increase its ownership interest. The guarantees expire upon repayment of the debt, unless noted otherwise.

107

The following table represents the Operating Partnership's guarantees of unconsolidated affiliates' debt as reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:

	As of December 31, 2022									Obligation recorded to reflect guaranty

(1)Excludes any extension options.

(2)These loans have a one-year extension option at the joint venture’s election.

(3)The guaranty was removed when the Company entered into a new loan in April 2022.

For the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, the Successor Company evaluated each guaranty, listed in the table above, individually by looking at the debt service ratio, cash flow forecasts and the performance of each loan. The result of the analysis was that each loan is current. The Successor Company did not record a credit loss related to the guarantees listed in the table above for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021.

For the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020, the Predecessor Company evaluated each guaranty, listed in the table above, individually by looking at the debt service ratio, cash flow forecasts, the performance of each loan and, where applicable, the collateral value in relation to the outstanding amount of the loan. The result of the analysis was that each loan is current, performing and, where applicable, the collateral value was greater than the outstanding amount of the loan. The Predecessor Company did not record a credit loss related to the guarantees listed in the table above for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020.

NOTE 15. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company has categorized its financial assets and financial liabilities that are recorded at fair value into a hierarchy in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, ("ASC 820") based on whether the inputs to valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. The fair value hierarchy contains three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value as follows:

Level 1 - Inputs represent quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities as of the measurement date.

Level 2 - Inputs, other than those included in Level 1, represent observable measurements for similar instruments in active markets, or identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and observable measurements or market data for instruments with substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 - Inputs represent unobservable measurements, supported by little, if any, market activity, and require considerable assumptions that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability. Market valuations must often be determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, pricing models or similar techniques based on the Company’s assumptions and best judgment.

108

The asset or liability's fair value within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Under ASC 820, fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability in an orderly transaction at the measurement date and under current market conditions. Valuation techniques used maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and consider assumptions such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and risk of nonperformance.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The estimated fair value of mortgage and other indebtedness was $1,833,992 and $2,059,094 at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The fair value was calculated using Level 2 inputs by discounting future cash flows for mortgage and other indebtedness using estimated market rates at which similar loans would be made currently.

Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis

The Successor Company elected the fair value option in conjunction with the issuance of the Secured Notes because it believed that the fair value option provided the most accurate depiction of the then-current value of the Secured Notes. On June 7, 2022, the Successor Company completed the redemption of all outstanding Secured Notes. See Note 8 for additional information.

The following table sets forth information regarding the Secured Notes for the year ended December 31, 2021:

Debt Instrument	Carrying amount as of December 31, 2021		Change in fair value		Fair value as of December 31, 2021 (1)
Secured Notes	$	395,000	$	395	$	395,395

(1)The fair value was calculated using Level 1 inputs.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor Company has continued to reinvest the cash from maturing U.S. Treasury securities into new U.S. Treasury securities. The Company designated the U.S. Treasury securities as available-for-sale (“AFS”). The below table sets forth information regarding the Successor Company’s AFS securities that were measured at fair value. Subsequent to December 31, 2022, the Company redeemed and purchased additional U.S. Treasury securities. See Note 20 for additional information.

AFS Security	Amortized Cost (1)		Allowance for credit losses (2)		Total unrealized loss			Fair value as of December 31, 2022 (3)
U.S. Treasury securities	$	293,476	$	—	$	(1,054	)	$	292,422

(1)The U.S. Treasury securities have maturities through November 2023.

(2)U.S Treasury securities have a long history with no credit losses. Additionally, the Company notes that U.S Treasury securities are explicitly fully guaranteed by a sovereign entity that can print its own currency and that the sovereign entity’s currency is routinely held by central banks and other major financial institutions, is used in international commerce, and commonly viewed as a reserve currency, all of which qualitatively indicate that historical credit loss information should be minimally affected by current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Therefore, the Successor Company did not record expected credit losses for its U.S Treasury securities for the year ended December 31, 2022.

(3)The fair value was calculated using Level 1 inputs.

The following table sets forth information regarding the Successor Company’s AFS securities that were measured at fair value for the year ended December 31, 2021:

AFS Security	Amortized Cost		Allowance for credit losses (1)		Total unrealized loss			Fair value as of December 31, 2021 (2)
U.S. Treasury securities	$	149,999	$	—	$	(3	)	$	149,996

(1)U.S Treasury securities have a long history with no credit losses. Additionally, the Company notes that U.S Treasury securities are explicitly fully guaranteed by a sovereign entity that can print its own currency and that the sovereign entity’s currency is routinely held by central banks and other major financial institutions, is used in international commerce, and commonly viewed as a reserve currency, all of which qualitatively indicate that historical credit loss information should be minimally affected by current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Therefore, the Successor Company did not record expected credit losses for its U.S Treasury securities for the year ended December 31, 2021.

(2)The fair value was calculated using Level 1 inputs.

109

Fair Value Measurements on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company measures the fair value of certain long-lived assets on a nonrecurring basis, through quarterly impairment testing or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company’s evaluation of the recoverability of long-lived assets involves the comparison of undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by each property over the Company’s expected remaining holding period to the respective carrying amount. The determination of whether the carrying value is recoverable also requires management to make estimates related to probability weighted scenarios impacting undiscounted cash flow models. The Company considers both quantitative and qualitative factors in its impairment analysis of long-lived assets. Significant quantitative factors include historical and forecasted information for each property such as net operating income, occupancy statistics and sales levels. Significant qualitative factors used include market conditions, age and condition of the property and tenant mix. The quantitative and qualitative factors impact the selection of the terminal capitalization rate which is used in both an undiscounted and discounted cash flow model and the discount rate used in a discounted cash flow model. Due to the significant unobservable estimates and assumptions used in the valuation of long-lived assets that experience impairment, the Company classifies such long-lived assets under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Level 3 inputs primarily consist of sales and market data, independent valuations and discounted cash flow models. See below for a description of the estimates and assumptions the Company used in its impairment analysis. See Note 2 for additional information describing the Company's impairment review process.

See Note 19 for information regarding the fair value adjustments associated with Fresh Start Accounting.

Long-lived Assets Measured at Fair Value in 2022

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor Company adjusted the negative equity in Greenbrier Mall to zero upon deconsolidation, which represented the estimated fair value of the Successor Company’s investment in that property. See Note 7 for additional information.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor Company sold an outparcel at the Pavilion at Port Orange. Gross sales proceeds amounted to $1,660 and the transaction resulted in a loss on sale of $252.

Long-lived Assets Measured at Fair Value in 2021

The below table sets forth information regarding the Predecessor Company’s assets that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and related impairment charges for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. No impairment charges were incurred during the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021.

(6)In accordance with the Company’s quarterly impairment process, the Predecessor Company wrote down the book value of the mall, a redeveloped anchor parcel and an open-air center adjacent to the mall to their aggregate estimated fair value of $50,500. The mall had experienced a decline in cash flows due to store closures and rent reductions. These factors resulted in a reduction of the expected hold period for the mall and open-air center (excluding the redeveloped anchor parcel) based on Management’s assessment that there was an increased likelihood that the loan secured by the mall and open-air center may not be successfully restructured or refinanced. Management determined the fair value of Parkdale Mall, Parkdale Crossing and Parkdale Anchor using a discounted cash flow methodology. The discounted cash flow used assumptions including a holding period of ten years, with a sale at the end of the holding period, a weighted-average capitalization rate of 12.3% and a weighted-average discount rate of 14.2%.

(7)In accordance with the Company’s quarterly impairment process, the Predecessor Company wrote down the book value of the outlet center to its estimated fair value of $16,660. The outlet center had experienced a decline in cash flow due to store closures and rent reductions.

NOTE 16. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Successor Company

2021 Equity Incentive Plan

Following the Effective Date, the board of directors of the Successor Company adopted the CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “EIP”). The EIP authorizes the grant of equity awards to eligible participants based on the new common stock, in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other equity awards. Awards under the EIP may be granted to officers, employees, directors, consultants and independent contractors of the reorganized company. Initially, 3,222,222 shares of new common stock are available under the EIP. The initial new common stock under the EIP is subject to an annual increase of a number of shares equal to 3% of the number of shares of new common stock issued and outstanding at the end of the relevant calendar year (beginning January 2023), or such lesser amount as the board of directors may determine. The Plan will be administered by the compensation committee of the board of directors, which will determine the participants who will be granted awards under the EIP and the terms and conditions of EIP awards.

In accordance with the provisions of ASU 2016-09, which are designed to simplify the accounting for share-based payments transactions, the Successor Company elected to account for forfeitures of share-based payments as they occur rather than estimating them in advance.

Restricted Stock Awards

Restricted stock awards granted to the Successor Company’s executive officers vest over a four-year period, with restrictions expiring on 25% of the shares subject to each award annually beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant. Restricted stock awards granted to the Successor Company’s non-executive officers vest over a three-year period, with restrictions expiring on 33% of the shares subject to each award annually beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant. Restricted stock awards granted to the Successor Company’s non-employee directors vest over a one-year period, with restrictions expiring each January. The grantee generally has all the rights of a stockholder during the vesting/restricted period, including the right to receive dividends on the same basis and at the same rate as all other outstanding shares of common stock and the right to vote such shares on any matter on which holders of the Successor Company’s common stock are entitled to vote. The shares generally are not transferable during the restricted period, except for any transfers which may be required by law.

A summary of the status of the Successor Company’s nonvested restricted stock awards as of December 31, 2022, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2022, are presented below:

	Shares			Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Share
Nonvested at January 1, 2022		784,999		$	27.57
Granted		115,884		$	26.71
Vested		(215,508	)	$	27.56
Forfeited		(22,500	)	$	27.57
Nonvested at December 31, 2022		662,875		$	27.42

Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The share-based compensation cost related to restricted stock awards was $7,400 for the Successor year ended December 31, 2022 and $299 for the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. Share-based compensation cost resulting from share-based awards is recorded at the Management Company, which is a taxable entity.

The total grant-date fair value of restricted stock awards granted during the Successor year ended December 31, 2022 was $3,095. The total grant-date fair value of restricted stock awards granted during the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021 was $21,642. The total fair value of restricted stock awards that vested during the Successor year ended December 31, 2022 was $5,306. No restricted stock awards vested during the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021.

As of December 31, 2022, there was $16,418 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested restricted stock awards granted under the EIP, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.8 years.

Performance Stock Unit Awards

In February 2022, the compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company approved the terms of new awards of PSUs. The PSUs are earned over a four-year performance period aligned with fiscal years 2022 (includes the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021) through 2025, with one-quarter of the PSUs assigned to each fiscal year within the four-year performance period (each, an “Annual Performance Period” and all four, collectively, the “Full Performance Period”). The number of PSUs earned for each fiscal year within the four-year performance period will be determined based on the achievement of both (i) a quantitative total market return goal (the “TMR Goal”), and (ii) a Company-specific stated goal (the “Stated Goal”), for such fiscal year. The total market return (or TMR) is calculated as the sum of: (i) the average of the multiple of the Company’s average number of shares of common stock outstanding and the average closing share price of common stock for twenty consecutive trading days, and (ii) the value of cash dividends declared during the applicable fiscal year performance period. The TMR Goal will be met if the required level of total market return is achieved at any time during the last 90 trading days of the applicable fiscal year; provided that an additional six month extended measurement period will be applied for the fourth and final fiscal year (the “TMR Year 4 Grace Period”). The Stated Goal for each year will be met if it is achieved at any time during a cumulative performance period beginning November 1, 2021 and ending on December 31 of the applicable calendar year (the “Stated Goal Performance Period”), subject to a grace period of 6-months following the last day of each Stated Goal Performance Period (the “Stated Goal Grace Period”). If the Stated Goal is not achieved for any fiscal year measurement period (including the applicable grace period), then the PSUs allocable to that fiscal year will be forfeited. If the Stated Goal for a fiscal year is achieved but the TMR Goal is not achieved, then the unearned PSUs for the fiscal year will carry over to the succeeding fiscal year and may be earned based on attainment of the goals for the subsequent performance period. If the Stated Goal is achieved for all four fiscal years, then 50% of any outstanding PSUs will be earned. If a participating officer’s employment is terminated prior to the end of any annual performance period due to death or disability (as defined in the PSU award agreements), or due to a termination by the Company without cause (as defined in the PSU award agreements), then the officer will be entitled to receive a pro rata portion of any PSUs earned for that annual performance period (determined by dividing the number of days from January 1 of the applicable annual performance period through the date of such termination by 365), and any remaining PSUs for such annual performance period, and any subsequent annual performance period, will be forfeited.

A summary of the status of the Successor Company’s PSU awards as of December 31, 2022, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2022, are presented below:

	PSUs			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding at January 1, 2022		—		$	—
2022 PSUs granted (1)		727,223		$	24.67
2022 incremental PSUs granted (1)		82,281		$	26.66
Vested		(202,376	)	$	24.87
Outstanding at December 31, 2022		607,128		$	24.69

(1)PSUs granted shall be adjusted as if the shares of common stock represented by such PSUs had received any applicable stock or cash dividends declared. As for stock dividends, a number of PSUs shall be added to the target amount corresponding to the number of shares of common stock that would have been payable per such stock dividend on the then outstanding number of PSUs under the agreement as if common stock had been issued for such PSUs. As to cash dividends, a number of PSUs shall be added to the target amount corresponding to the number of shares of common stock that could have been acquired by the cash dividend payable on the then outstanding number of PSUs under the agreement as if common stock had been issued for such PSUs, and the calculation of the number of shares of common stock that could have been acquired shall be based on the closing price of the common stock on the record date for the cash dividend at issue.

Management assesses the Stated Goals quarterly to determine whether it is probable they will be achieved. The Company begins recognizing compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the remaining service period once the Stated Goal is deemed probable of achievement. Share-based compensation expense related to the Successor Company’s PSUs was $4,485 for the year ended December 31, 2022. The unrecognized compensation expense related to the Successor Company’s PSUs was $13,457 as of December 31, 2022, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.0 years.

The following table summarizes the assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation pricing model related to the Successor Company’s PSUs:

	2022 PSUs
Grant date	February 16, 2022
Fair value per share on valuation date (1)	$	24.67
Risk-free interest rate (2)		1.85	%
Expected share price volatility (3)		65.00	%

(1)The value of the PSU awards is estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The valuation consists of computing the fair value using CBL's simulated stock price as well as TMR for each performance period. The award is modeled as a contingent claim in that the expected return on the underlying shares is risk-free and the rate of discounting the payoff of the award is also risk-free.

(2)The risk-free interest rate was based on the yield curve on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities in effect as of the valuation date, which is the grant date listed above.

(3)The computation of expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of the share prices of comparable, publicly traded companies and given the Company's risk profile and leverage relative to the comparable, publicly traded companies. The Company's historical volatility was not relied upon given the Company's limited trading history since the Effective Date.

Predecessor Company

Prior to the Effective Date, the Company had outstanding awards under the CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. 2012 Stock Incentive Plan ("the 2012 Plan"), which permitted the Company to issue stock options and common stock to selected officers, employees and non-employee directors of the Company up to a total of 10,400,000 shares. The compensation committee of the board of directors administered the 2012 Plan.

Restricted Stock Awards

Under the 2012 Plan, common stock could be awarded either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with other granted stock awards. The Committee had the authority to determine eligible persons to whom common stock would be awarded, the number of shares to be awarded and the duration of the vesting period, as defined. Generally, an award of common stock vested either immediately at grant or in equal installments over a period of five years. Stock awarded to independent directors was fully vested upon grant; however, the independent directors could not transfer such shares during their board term. The Committee could also provide for the issuance of common stock under the 2012 Plan on a deferred basis pursuant to deferred compensation arrangements. The fair value of common stock awarded under the 2012 Plan was determined based on the market price of CBL’s common stock on the grant date and the related compensation expense was recognized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis.

As of the Effective Date and pursuant to the Plan, nonvested restricted stock of the Predecessor Company was deemed vested and the Company’s 2012 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2012 Plan”), pursuant to which such restricted stock had been granted, was terminated. A summary of the Predecessor Company’s restricted stock awards as of October 31, 2021, and changes during the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021, are presented below:

	Shares			Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Share
Nonvested at January 1, 2021		1,519,774		$	2.15
Vested		(1,490,751	)	$	2.14
Forfeited		(29,023	)	$	2.73
Nonvested at October 31, 2021		—		$	—

In conjunction with the vesting of the restricted stock on the Effective Date, the Predecessor Company accelerated the share-based compensation cost and recorded $863 of share-based compensation cost for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. The share-based compensation cost related to the restricted stock awards of the Predecessor Company was $2,239 for 2020. Share-based compensation cost resulting from share-based awards is recorded at the Management Company, which is a taxable entity. Share-based compensation cost capitalized as part of real estate assets was $10 for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. Share-based compensation cost capitalized as part of real estate assets was $20 in 2020.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value per share of shares granted during 2020 was $0.86. The total fair value of shares vested during 2021 and 2020 was $220 and $951, respectively.

115

Long-Term Incentive Program

In 2015, the Company adopted a long-term incentive program ("LTIP") for its named executive officers, which consisted of PSUs awards and annual restricted stock awards, that could be issued under the 2012 Plan. The number of shares related to the PSU awards that each named executive officer could receive upon the conclusion of a three-year performance period was determined based on the Company's achievement of specified levels of long-term total stockholder return ("TSR") performance relative to the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") Retail Index, provided that at least a "Threshold" level must be attained for any shares to be earned.

Beginning with the 2018 PSUs, two-thirds of the quantitative portion of the award over the performance period was based on the achievement of TSR relative to the NAREIT Retail Index while the remaining one-third was based on the achievement of absolute TSR metrics for the Company. Beginning with the 2018 PSU grant, to maintain compliance with a 200,000 share annual equity grant limit (the “Section 162(m) Grant Limit”) that was included in the 2012 Plan to satisfy the “qualified performance-based compensation” exception to the deduction limits for certain executive compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code, to the extent that a grant of PSUs could result in the issuance of a number of shares of common stock at the conclusion of the performance period that, when coupled with the number of shares of time-vesting restricted stock granted in the same year the PSUs were granted, would exceed such limit, any such excess would be converted to a cash bonus award with a value equivalent to the number of shares of common stock constituting such excess times the average of the high and low trading prices reported for CBL's common stock on the date such shares would otherwise have been issuable.

In conjunction with the February 2020 approval of the 2020 LTIP grants for the named executive officers, the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan was amended to remove the Section 162(m) Grant Limit, which no longer served its original purpose because the “qualified performance-based compensation” exception to the Section 162(m) deduction limits was repealed by the 2017 tax reform legislation. However, NYSE rules also include an annual equity grant limit which effectively limits the number of shares that can be subject to stock awards to any individual named executive officer, without additional shareholder approval, to one percent (1%) of the total number of outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “NYSE Annual Grant Limit”). To maintain NYSE compliance following elimination of the Section 162(m) Grant Limit, the Company’s Compensation Committee revised PSU awards under the LTIP, beginning in 2020, to provide that if a grant of PSUs could result in the issuance of a number of shares to a named executive officer at the conclusion of the 3-year performance period that would exceed the NYSE Annual Grant Limit, when coupled with the number of shares subject to other stock awards (e.g., the time-vesting restricted stock component of the LTIP) issued in the same year that such PSUs were issued, any such excess will instead be converted to a cash bonus award, while remaining subject to vesting conditions as described below.

Annual Restricted Stock Awards

Under the LTIP, annual restricted stock awards consisted of shares of time-vested restricted stock awarded based on a qualitative evaluation of the performance of the Company and the named executive officer during the fiscal year. Annual restricted stock awards under the LTIP, which are included in the totals reflected in the preceding table, vested 25% on the date of grant with the remainder vesting in three equal annual installments. Outstanding restricted stock, and related grant/vesting/forfeiture activity during the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021, through October 31, 2021 for awards made to named executive officers under the LTIP, is included in the information presented in the table above.

116

Performance Stock Units

The Predecessor Company granted the following PSUs in the first quarter of the respective years. A summary of PSU activity as of October 31, 2021, and changes during the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021, is presented below:

	PSUs			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
2019 PSUs granted (1)		1,103,537		$	2.40
2020 PSUs granted (2)		3,408,083		$	0.84
2020 PSUs cancelled (3)		(3,408,083	)	$	0.84
Outstanding at January 1, 2021		1,103,537		$	2.40
2019 PSUs cancelled (4)		(1,103,537	)	$	2.40
Outstanding at October 31, 2021		—		$	—

(1)Includes 566,862 shares classified as a liability due to the potential cash component.

(2)Includes 1,247,098 shares classified as a liability due to the potential cash component.

(3)In connection with the restructuring and support agreement, dated as of August 18, 2020, by and between the Predecessor Company and certain beneficial owners and/or investment advisors or managers of discretionary funds, accounts or other entities for the holders of beneficial owners (the "Consenting Noteholders"), the 2020 PSUs were cancelled.

(4)As of the Effective Date and pursuant to the Plan, all outstanding PSUs of the Predecessor Company were deemed cancelled.

Compensation cost was recognized on a tranche-by-tranche basis using the accelerated attribution method. The resulting expense was recorded regardless of whether any PSU awards were earned as long as the required service period was met.

Share-based compensation expense related to the PSUs was $315 for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. Share-based compensation expense related to the PSUs was $3,185 in 2020. Share-based compensation expense in 2020 included $2,052 of expense related to the cancellation of the 2020 PSUs.

The following table summarizes the assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation pricing model related to the Predecessor Company’s PSUs:

	2020 PSUs
Grant date	February 10, 2020
Fair value per share on valuation date (1)	$	0.84
Risk-free interest rate (2)		1.39	%
Expected share price volatility (3)		57.98	%

(1)The value of the PSU awards is estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The valuation consists of computing the fair value using CBL's simulated stock price as well as TSR over a three-year performance period. The award is modeled as a contingent claim in that the expected return on the underlying shares is risk-free and the rate of discounting the payoff of the award is also risk-free. The weighted-average fair value per share related to the 2020 PSUs classified as equity consists of 2,131,245 shares at a fair value of $0.88 (which relate to relative TSR) and 1,065,463 shares at fair value of $0.75 per share (which relate to absolute TSR).

(2)The risk-free interest rate was based on the yield curve on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities in effect as of the valuation date, which is the respective grant date listed above.

(3)The computation of expected volatility was based on a blend of the historical volatility of CBL's shares of common stock based on annualized daily total continuous returns over a five-year period for the 2020 PSUs and implied volatility data based on the trailing month average of daily implied volatilities implied by stock call option contracts that were both closest to the terms shown and closest to the money.

NOTE 17. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

401(k) Plan

The Management Company maintains a 401(k) profit sharing plan, which is qualified under Section 401(a) and Section 401(k) of the Code to cover employees of the Management Company.

NOTE 18. EMERGENCE FROM VOLUNTARY REORGANIZATION UNDER CHAPTER 11

Voluntary Reorganization Under Chapter 11

On August 18, 2020, the Company entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement, (the “Original RSA”) with the Consenting Noteholders representing in excess of 62%, including joining noteholders pursuant to joinder agreements, of the Notes.

On October 28, 2020, the Operating Partnership was notified by the administrative agent and lenders that they elected to exercise their rights pursuant to the terms of the secured credit facility to (i) require that rents payable by tenants at the properties that are collateral to the secured credit facility be paid directly to the administrative agent and (ii) exercise all voting rights and other ownership rights in respect of all the equity interests in the subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership that are guarantors of the secured credit facility.

Beginning on November 1, 2020, the Debtors filed the Chapter 11 Cases under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court. The Bankruptcy Court authorized the Debtors to continue to operate their businesses and manage their properties as debtors-in-possession pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code. The Chapter 11 Cases are being jointly administered for procedural purposes only under the caption In re CBL & Associates Properties, Inc., et al., Case No. 20-35226.

The filing of the Chapter 11 Cases constituted an event of default with respect to certain property-level debt of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries. See Note 7 and Note 8 for further discussion.

In connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, on August 11, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order, Docket No.1397 (Confirmation Order), confirming the Plan.

On the Effective Date, the conditions to effectiveness of the Plan were satisfied and the Debtors emerged from the Chapter 11 Cases. The Company filed a notice of the Effective Date of the Plan with the Bankruptcy Court on November 1, 2021. Following the Effective Date, one of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases remains open to administer claims pursuant to the Plan.

On the Effective Date, in exchange for their approximately $1,375,000 in principal amount of senior unsecured notes and $133,000 in principal amount of the secured credit facility, Consenting Noteholders, other noteholders, and certain holders of unsecured claims against the Company received, in the aggregate, $95,000 in cash, $455,000 of new senior secured notes, $100,000 of new exchangeable secured notes, based upon the election by certain Consenting Noteholders, and 89% in common equity of the newly reorganized company (subject to dilution, as set forth in the Plan). Certain Consenting Noteholders also provided $50,000 of new money in exchange for additional new exchangeable secured notes. Pursuant to the Plan the remaining lenders of the senior secured credit facility, holding $983,700 in principal amount, received $100,000 in cash and a new $883,700 secured term loan. Existing common and preferred shareholders each received 5.5% of common equity in the newly reorganized company. On the Effective Date, the Company had an aggregate 20,000,000 shares of new common stock and units issued and outstanding.

On the Effective Date, the Company reserved an additional (i) approximately 9,000,000 shares of new common stock for issuance upon the potential exercise of the new exchangeable notes and (ii) 3,222,222 shares of new common stock for issuance under an equity incentive plan.

On the Effective Date, all prior equity interests of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date, including (1) CBL’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share and CBL’s preferred stock and related depositary shares and (2) the Operating Partnership’s limited partnership common interests and the limited partnership preferred interests related to CBL’s preferred stock, and any rights of any holder in respect thereof, were deemed cancelled, discharged and of no force or effect.

Registration Rights Agreement

Pursuant to the Plan, on the Effective Date, the Company and certain holders of the newly issued shares of common stock, par value $0.001, of the Company executed a registration rights agreement.

118

Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, the Company agreed to file with the SEC an initial shelf registration statement on Form S-11 as soon as practicable after the filing with the SEC of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2021 (including any portions thereof that are incorporated by reference into such Form 10-K from the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the Company’s 2022 annual meeting of shareholders), and to use reasonable best efforts to substitute this with a shelf registration on Form S-3 as soon as reasonably practicable following the Company’s becoming eligible to use such form. Any holder or group of holders will have the right to request that the Company include some or all the shares of new common stock held by them, including shares of new common stock issuable upon conversion of the exchangeable notes, in such initial shelf registration statement or shelf registration statement. The Company also agreed to file a “demand” shelf registration statement, or to facilitate a “takedown” of registrable securities in the form of an underwritten offering under any existing shelf registration statement, to the extent that (1) the registrable securities sought to be sold equal at least 5% of all outstanding shares of new common stock on the date of any such request or (2) the anticipated aggregate gross offering price of such registrable securities is at least $25,000 (prior to the deduction of any underwriting discounts and commissions). The Company shall also not be required to file a “demand” registration statement if (a) the registrable securities proposed to be sold are already covered by an existing and effective registration statement that may utilized for the offer and sale of such registrable securities, or (b) there have previously been more than 6 such demands in the aggregate.

On May 6, 2022, the Company filed a resale registration statement on Form S-11 covering the offer and sale, from time to time, of up to 12,380,260 shares of common stock by the selling shareholders named therein, pursuant to the requirements of the registration rights agreement. The Company will not receive any proceeds from resales of shares of common stock by the selling shareholders pursuant to this registration statement.

2021 Equity Incentive Plan

Following the Effective Date, the board of directors of the Company adopted the EIP. See Note 16 for additional information.

Fifth Amended and Restated Operating Partnership Agreement

On the Effective Date, under the terms of the Plan, affiliates of the Company entered into a Fifth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership for the Operating Partnership (the “New OP Agreement”) with CBL (solely for purposes of acknowledging the provisions thereof) and the remaining holders of the old limited partnership preferred interests (the “Old LP Interests”) who elected to remain limited partners of the Operating Partnership following emergence.

Pursuant to the Plan, the New OP Agreement supersedes and replaces in its entirety the Operating Partnership’s Fourth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, as amended (the “Old OP Agreement”), and all of the common units, special common units and preferred units of limited partnership of the Operating Partnership outstanding under the Old OP Agreement were cancelled and new common units (which, as of the Effective Date, are the only class of equity of the Operating Partnership outstanding) were issued to certain holders, as described in Note 9. The New OP Agreement also eliminated the terms of all the classes of preferred units, as well as all the classes of special common units, that were defined in the Old OP Agreement.

Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation

In connection with the Company’s reorganization and emergence from its Chapter 11 Proceedings, as provided in the Plan, effective as of the Effective Date, CBL adopted a Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Updated COI”), which replaced and superseded the CBL’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation as it existed immediately prior to the Effective Date (the “Prior COI”), and also adopted the Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws for CBL (the “Updated Bylaws”), which replaced and superseded CBL’s Third Amended and Restated Bylaws as they existed immediately prior to the Effective Date (the “Prior Bylaws”).

Delisting of Common Stock and Depositary Shares

On November 2, 2020, the NYSE announced that (i) it had suspended trading in the Company’s stock and (ii) it had determined to commence proceedings to delist the Company’s common stock, as well as the Series D Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock, due to such securities no longer being suitable for listing based on “abnormally low” trading price levels, pursuant to Section 802.01D of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. The Company appealed this decision in accordance with NYSE rules. In the meantime, effective November 3, 2020, the Company’s common stock and the depositary shares representing fractional interests in its Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock began trading on the OTC Markets, operated by the OTC Markets Group, Inc., under the symbols CBLAQ, CBLDQ and CBLEQ, respectively. On November 2, 2021, the newly issued common stock of the reorganized company commenced trading on the NYSE under the symbol CBL.

119

Reorganization Items

Any expenses, gains and losses that were realized or incurred as of or subsequent to November 1, 2020, and as a direct result of the Chapter 11 Cases, were recorded in the line item “Reorganization items, net” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. For the Successor year ended December 31, 2022 and the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, reorganization items, net, was $298 and $(1,403), respectively. For the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021, the $(435,162) of reorganization items, net, consists of $(779,092) associated with remeasuring the value of the individual assets and liabilities of the Successor Company as of the Effective Date, $(75,545) in professional fees and success fees, $(1,211) in compensation associated with reorganization efforts and $(1,741) of U.S. Trustee fees, offset by the gain on settlement of liabilities subject to compromise of $422,427. For the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2020, the $(35,977) of reorganization items consists of $(10,347) in professional fees, $(25,294) of unamortized deferred financing costs and debt discounts related to the secured credit facility and the senior unsecured notes, as well as $(336) of U.S. Trustee fees.

NOTE 19. FRESH START ACCOUNTING

Fresh Start

Upon emergence from bankruptcy, the Company qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting in accordance with ASC 852, which resulted in the Company becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes because (1) the holders of the then existing common shares of the Predecessor received less than 50 percent of the new shares of common stock of the Successor outstanding upon emergence and (2) the reorganization value of the Company’s assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plan was less than the total of all post-petition liabilities and allowed claims. The Company elected to apply fresh start accounting using a convenience date of October 31, 2021. Management evaluated and concluded that the events on November 1, 2021 were not material to the Company’s financial reporting on both a quantitative and qualitative basis.

The reorganization value derived from the range of equity values associated with the Plan was allocated to the Company’s identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on their fair values. The Effective Date fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities differ materially from their recorded values as reflected on the historical balance sheets.

Reorganization Value

Under ASC 852, the Successor determined a value to be assigned to the equity of the emerging entity as of the date of adoption of fresh start accounting. Based on the Company’s revised projections filed with the SEC on a Form 8-K on May 6, 2021, management and its investment bankers reassessed the value of the Company, resulting in an estimated range of shareholders’ equity between $50,000 and $550,000. The Company engaged third-party valuation advisors to assist the Company in their determination of a point estimate of equity value within the range.

Management concluded that the best point estimate of shareholders’ equity was $547,448, which resulted in $553,535 of total equity, including noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership. The Company engaged valuation experts to assist management in the allocation of such enterprise value to the assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes. The Company estimated enterprise value using a discounted cash flow approach. In order to estimate enterprise value, the Company estimated cash flows over a five-year period plus a residual value calculated using a capitalization rate of 10% applied to the residual period cash flows, all of which were discounted to an estimated present value using the Company’s estimated weighted average cost of capital of 11%. The estimated future cash flows were based on financial projections utilized by the Company’s investment bankers in deriving the range of equity value. The fair value of mortgage and other indebtedness and the 10% senior secured notes were subtracted from and the balance of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was added to enterprise value to determine equity value. The fair value of mortgage and other indebtedness was estimated based on an analysis of collateral coverage, financial metrics and interest rate for each mortgage note payable relative to market rates (see below for a more detailed description). The most subjective and judgmental assumptions used in the determination of enterprise and equity value include the Company’s projected cash flows (projected revenues, operating expenses, capital expenditures and cash flows), capitalization and discount rates, and market interest rates for mortgage note payable obligations.

120

The following table reconciles the enterprise value to the estimated fair value of the Successor’s common shares as of the Effective Date:

Enterprise value, less cash	$	2,296,872
Less: Fair value of noncontrolling interest in consolidated subsidiaries		(6,087	)
Enterprise value of the Company's interests, less cash		2,290,785
Plus: Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash		330,282
Less: Fair value of mortgage and other indebtedness		(1,678,619	)
Less: Fair value of 10% senior secured notes		(395,000	)
Fair value of Successor total shareholders' equity	$	547,448
Shares and units issued upon emergence		20,000,000
Per share value	$	27.37

The following table reconciles the enterprise value to the reorganization value of the Successor’s assets to be allocated to the Company’s individual assets as of the Effective Date:

Enterprise value, less cash	$	2,296,872
Plus: Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash		330,282
Plus: Accounts payable and accrued liabilities		335,513
Reorganization value of Successor's assets	$	2,962,667

The enterprise value and corresponding equity value are dependent upon achieving the future financial results set forth in the Company’s projections, as well as the realization of certain other assumptions. All estimates, assumptions, valuations and financial projections, including the fair value adjustments, the financial projections, the enterprise value and equity value projections, are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and the resolution of contingencies beyond the Company’s control. Accordingly, the Company cannot assure that the estimates, assumptions, valuations or financial projections will be realized and actual results could vary materially.

Real Estate Assets

In developing the fair value estimates for the portfolio of retail properties, all three traditional approaches to valuation were considered including the income approach, the sales comparison (market) approach and the cost approach. These valuation approaches have long been recognized as acceptable in the appropriate circumstances and in valuations of this type. Accordingly, all applicable properties were identified, investigated and examined by the valuation provider along with all intangible assets and liabilities associated with the properties. Furthermore, the valuation provider estimated the fair values and remaining useful lives ("RUL") of the related intangible assets and liabilities at the property-level, as applicable. In most cases, the properties included the following intangible assets/liabilities:

·Above/below-market leases

·In-place leases

·Avoided lease origination costs (leasing commissions, tenant improvements, etc.)

·Property-level debt

121

For the valuation of the tangible assets of each property, all pertinent information such as blueprints and drawings, property tax statements, prior appraisals and cost segregation reports were utilized. In terms of methodology, the properties were valued via the income approach in order to estimate building values. Separate values for the underlying land and site improvements were developed via the cost approach. As part of the allocation process, the fair value of the following tangible components was estimated:

·Land

·Building(s)

·Site Improvements

Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates

The fair value of the Company’s investment in unconsolidated affiliates for fresh start accounting was determined by valuing the underlying real estate assets associated with each unconsolidated joint venture in the same manner as all real estate assets, described above. The Company then calculated the net asset or liability value of each joint venture by applying the net working capital balance to the fair value of the real estate assets and the amount outstanding under any associated mortgage notes. The percentage of ownership interest in each joint venture was applied to the net asset or liability value which resulted in the fair value of each unconsolidated affiliate. See Note 2 for further information related to the equity method of accounting.

Right-of-Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

The fair value of lease liabilities was measured as the present value of the remaining lease payments, as if the lease were a new lease as of the Effective Date. The Company used its incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) as the discount rate in determining the present value of the remaining lease payments, which was determined by a third-party valuation advisor using a fundamental credit rating analysis and an implied market yield analysis based on the newly issued Secured Notes. Based upon the corresponding lease term, the IBR was approximately 12.0%.

Mortgage Notes Payable

The fair value of the mortgage notes payable was estimated by a third-party valuation advisor based on an analysis of the Company’s collateral coverage, financial metrics and interest rate for each mortgage note payable relative to market rates. If there is a reasonable expectation that the debtor will be able to meet the financial obligations of the mortgage note payable, or the mortgage note payable is a recourse loan, then the value of the mortgage note is equal to the present value of the future mortgage note payments discounted at a rate of return commensurate with the risk associated with the mortgage note payments. If the debtor is unable, or if there is uncertainty if the debtor will be able, to meet the financial obligations of the mortgage note, then the value of the mortgage note payable is equal to the expected proceeds to be received through a liquidation of the underlying property at fair value.

FIFTH AMENDED AND RESTATEDBYLAWS

OF

CBL & ASSOCIATES PROPERTIES, INC.

Article IOFFICES

Section 1.1 Registered Office. The registered office of the Corporation within the State of Delaware shall be as set forth in the Corporation’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as the same may be amended and/or restated from time to time (the “Certificate of Incorporation”).

Section 1.2 Additional Offices. The Corporation may, in addition to its registered office in the State of Delaware, have such other offices and places of business, both within and outside the State of Delaware, as the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board”) may from time to time determine or as the business and affairs of the Corporation may require.

Article IISTOCKHOLDERS MEETINGS

Section 2.1 Annual Meetings. The annual meeting of stockholders shall be held at such place and time and on such date as shall be determined by the Board and stated in the notice of the meeting, provided that the Board may in its sole discretion determine that the meeting shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication pursuant to Section 9.5(a). At each annual meeting, the stockholders shall elect directors of the Corporation and may transact any other business as may properly be brought before the meeting.

Section 2.2 Special Meetings.

(a) Except as otherwise required by applicable law or provided in the Certificate of Incorporation, special meetings of stockholders, for any purpose or purposes, may be called only by (i) the Chairman of the Board, (ii) the Board pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the Whole Board (as defined in Section 3.1) or (iii) the Board upon the delivery of a written request complying with Section 2.2(b) of these Bylaws to the Corporation by the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of the common stock of the Corporation (“Common Stock”), in the aggregate (a “Stockholder-Requested Meeting”). Special meetings of stockholders shall be held at such place and time and on such date as shall be determined by the Board and stated in the Corporation’s notice of the meeting, provided that the Board may in its sole discretion determine that the meeting shall not be held at any place, but may instead be held solely by means of remote communication pursuant to Section 9.5(a).

(b) To be valid, a written request for a Stockholder-Requested Meeting must (i) be in writing, signed and dated by or on behalf of one or more stockholder(s) of record representing at least a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, (ii) set forth the proposed date, time and place of the special meeting (which may not be earlier than sixty (60) days after the date

2

the request is delivered (or ninety (90) days in the case of a Stockholder-Requested Meeting to elect directors)), provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that such proposed date, time and place of the special meeting shall not be binding on the Corporation or the Board, (iii) set forth a statement of the purpose or purposes of and the matters proposed to be acted on at the special meeting, (iv) include the information required by Section 2.7(a) or Section 3.2 of these Bylaws to be set forth in a stockholder’s notice for the proposal of business or nominations, as applicable, and (v) be delivered personally or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation. If the Board determines that a stockholder request pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(iii) is valid, the Board will determine the time and place, if any, of a Stockholder-Requested Meeting, which time will be not less than thirty (30) days nor more than ninety (90) days after the receipt of such request (subject to any delay in the date for any such Stockholder-Requested Meeting which the Board determines is necessary in order to permit the solicitation of proxies for at least thirty (30) days following the filing of the Corporation’s definitive proxy solicitation materials in accordance with Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Exchange Act”) after the completion of any review and comment process pertaining to such materials initiated by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in accordance with Regulation 14A), and will set a record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting in the manner set forth in Section 9.2 hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Stockholder-Requested Meeting need not be held if (1) the special meeting request relates to an item of business that is not a proper subject for stockholder action under applicable law, (2) the special meeting request is delivered during the period commencing ninety (90) days prior to the first anniversary of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders and ending on the earlier of (x) the date of the next annual meeting and (y) thirty (30) calendar days after the first anniversary of the date of the immediately preceding annual meeting, (3) an identical or substantially similar item (as determined in good faith by the Board, a “Similar Item”), other than the election of directors, was presented at a meeting of the stockholders held not more than twelve (12) months before the special meeting request is delivered, (4) a Similar Item was presented at a meeting of the stockholders held not more than ninety (90) days before the special meeting request is delivered (and, for purposes of this clause (4), the election of directors shall be deemed a “Similar Item” with respect to all items of business involving the election or removal of directors) (5) a Similar Item is included in the Corporation’s notice as an item of business to be brought before a stockholder meeting that has been called by the time the special meeting request is delivered but not yet held or (6) the special meeting request was made in a manner that involved a violation of Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act. No business may be transacted at a special meeting, including a Stockholder-Requested Meeting unless specified in the Corporation’s notice of meeting.

Section 2.3 Notices. Notice of each stockholders meeting stating the place, if any, date, and time of the meeting, and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, and the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting if such date is different from the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting shall be given in the manner permitted by Section 9.3 to each stockholder entitled to vote thereat as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting. Unless otherwise provided by applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, such notice shall be given by the Corporation not less than ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting. If

3

said notice is for a stockholders meeting other than an annual meeting, it shall in addition state the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, and the business transacted at such meeting shall be limited to the matters so stated in the Corporation’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto). Any meeting of stockholders as to which notice has been given may be postponed or rescheduled, and any special meeting of stockholders as to which notice has been given may be cancelled, postponed or rescheduled, by the Board upon public announcement (as defined in Section 2.7(c)) given before the date previously scheduled for such meeting.

Section 2.4 Quorum. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the presence, in person or by proxy, at a stockholders meeting of the holders of shares of outstanding capital stock of the Corporation representing a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at such meeting, except that when specified business is to be voted on by a class or series of stock voting as a class, the holders of shares representing a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of such class or series shall constitute a quorum of such class or series for the transaction of such business. Whether or not a quorum is present or represented by proxy at any meeting of the stockholders, the chairman of the meeting may adjourn the meeting from time to time in the manner provided in Section 2.6 until a quorum shall attend. The stockholders present at a duly convened meeting may continue to transact business until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to leave less than a quorum. If a quorum is present at the original duly organized meeting, it is also present at an adjourned session of such meeting.

Section 2.5 Voting of Shares.

(a) Voting Lists. The Corporation shall prepare, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten (10) days before the meeting date, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth day before the meeting date), arranged in alphabetical order for each class of stock and showing the address and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Nothing contained in this Section 2.5(a) shall require the Corporation to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting: (i) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (ii) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. If the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, then the list of stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting shall be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be examined by any stockholder who is present. If a meeting of stockholders is to be held solely by means of remote communication as permitted by Section 9.5(a), then such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of meeting. The stock ledger shall be the only

4

evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the list required by this Section 2.5(a) or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.

(b) Manner of Voting. At any stockholders meeting, every stockholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy. If authorized by the Board, the voting by stockholders or proxyholders at any meeting conducted by remote communication may be effected by a ballot submitted by Electronic Transmission (as defined in Section 9.3), provided that any such Electronic Transmission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which the Corporation can determine that the Electronic Transmission was authorized by the stockholder or proxyholder. The Board, in its discretion, or the chairman of the meeting of stockholders, in such person’s discretion, may require that any votes cast at such meeting shall be cast by written ballot.

(c) Proxies. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent or dissent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three (3) years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. Proxies need not be filed with the Secretary until the meeting is called to order, but shall be filed with the Secretary before being voted. A stockholder may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder as proxy in the manner(s) provided in Section 212(c) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”).

(d) Required Vote. The election of directors shall be determined in the manner set forth in Section 3.1(d) of these Bylaws. All other matters shall be determined by the vote of a majority of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon, unless the matter is one upon which, by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws or applicable stock exchange rules, a different vote is required, in which case such provision shall govern and control the decision of such matter.

(e) Inspectors of Election. The Board may, and shall if required by law, in advance of any meeting of stockholders, appoint one or more persons as inspectors of election, who may be employees of the Corporation or otherwise serve the Corporation in other capacities, to act at such meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof and to make a written report thereof. The Board may appoint one or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspectors of election or alternates have been appointed, or if all inspectors of election or alternates appointed by the Board are unable to act at a meeting of stockholders, the chairman of the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting. Each inspector, before discharging his or her duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of his or her ability. The inspectors shall have the duties prescribed pursuant to Section 231 of the DGCL or other applicable law. In determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots at any meeting of stockholders of the Corporation, the inspectors may consider such information as is permitted by applicable law. No person who is a candidate for an office at an election may serve as an inspector at such election. Each report of an inspector shall be in writing and signed by the inspector or by a majority of them if there is more than one inspector acting at such meeting. If there is more than one inspector, the report of a majority shall be the report of the inspectors.

5

Section 2.6 Adjournments. Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may be adjourned by the chairman of the meeting, from time to time, whether or not there is a quorum, to reconvene at the same or some other place. Notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the date, time and place, if any, thereof, and the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting the stockholders, or the holders of any class or series of stock entitled to vote separately as a class, as the case may be, may transact any business that might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board shall fix a new record date for notice of such adjourned meeting in accordance with Section 2.3, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such adjourned meeting as of the record date fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.

Section 2.7 Advance Notice for Business.

(a) Annual Meetings of Stockholders. No business may be transacted at an annual meeting of stockholders, other than business that is either (i) specified in the Corporation’s notice of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board, (ii) otherwise properly brought before the annual meeting by or at the direction of the Board or (iii) otherwise properly brought before the annual meeting by any stockholder of the Corporation (x) who is a stockholder of record on each of the date of the giving of the notice provided for in this Section 2.7(a), the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting and on the date of such meeting, (y) who is entitled to vote at such annual meeting and (z) who complies with the notice procedures set forth in this Section 2.7(a). Except for proposals properly made in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, and included in the notice of meeting given by or at the direction of the Board, the foregoing clause (iii) shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to propose business to be brought before an annual meeting of stockholders and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be applicable to proposals contained in the proxy statements prepared and furnished by or on behalf of any stockholder. Stockholders seeking to nominate persons for election to the Board must comply with Section 3.2, and this Section 2.7 shall not be applicable to nominations.

(i) In addition to any other applicable requirements, for business (other than nominations) to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a stockholder, such stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in proper written form to the Secretary and such business must otherwise be a proper matter for stockholder action. Subject to Section 2.7(a)(iv), to be timely, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary with respect to such business must (x) comply with the provisions of this Section 2.7(a)(i) and (y) be timely updated by the times and in the manner required by the provisions of Section 2.7(a)(iii). A stockholder’s notice must be received by the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day nor earlier than the opening of business on the 120th day before the anniversary date of the date on which the Corporation first mailed its proxy materials for the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders; provided, however, that if the annual meeting is called for

6

a date that is more than thirty (30) days earlier or more than sixty (60) days later than such anniversary date or if no annual meeting occurred in the immediately preceding year, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so received not earlier than the opening of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day before the meeting and not later than the later of (x) the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day before the meeting or (y) the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the annual meeting is first made by the Corporation. The public announcement of an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting shall not commence a new time period for the giving of a stockholder’s notice as described in this Section 2.7(a).

(ii) To be in proper written form, a stockholder’s notice to the Secretary with respect to any business (other than nominations) must set forth (A) as to each such matter such stockholder proposes to bring before the annual meeting (1) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before the annual meeting and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and any Stockholder Associated Person (as defined below), individually or in the aggregate, including any anticipated benefit to such stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person, (2) the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and if such business includes a proposal to amend these Bylaws, the text of the proposed amendment) and (3) the reasons for conducting such business at the annual meeting, (B) the name and address of the stockholder proposing such business, as they appear on the Corporation’s books, and the name and address of any Stockholder Associated Person, (C) the class or series and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation that are owned of record or are directly or indirectly owned beneficially by such stockholder and by any Stockholder Associated Person, (D) any option, warrant, convertible security, stock appreciation right, swap or similar right with an exercise or conversion privilege or a settlement payment or mechanism at a price related to any class or series of shares of the Corporation or with a value derived in whole or in part from the value of any class or series of shares of the Corporation, whether or not such instrument or right is subject to settlement in the underlying class or series of shares of the Corporation or otherwise (a “Derivative Instrument”) directly or indirectly owned beneficially by such stockholder or by any Stockholder Associated Person and any other direct or indirect opportunity of such stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person to profit or share in any profit derived from any increase or decrease in the value of shares of the Corporation, (E) any proxy (other than a revocable proxy or consent given in response to a solicitation made pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act by way of a solicitation statement filed on Schedule 14A), contract, arrangement, understanding or relationship pursuant to which such stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person has a right to vote any shares of the Corporation, (F) any short interest in any security of the Corporation held by such stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person (for purposes of this Section 2.7 a person shall be deemed to have a short interest in a security if such person directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise, has the opportunity to profit or share in any profit derived from any decrease in the value of the subject security), (G) any rights owned beneficially by such stockholder or Stockholder Associated Person to dividends on the shares of the Corporation that are separated or separable from the underlying shares of the Corporation, (H) any proportionate interest in shares of the Corporation or Derivative Instruments held, directly or indirectly, by a general

7

or limited partnership or limited liability company or similar entity in which such stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person is a general partner or, directly or indirectly, beneficially owns an interest in a general partner, or is the manager or managing member of or directly or indirectly beneficially owns any interest in the manager or managing member of a limited liability company or similar entity (I) any performance-related fees (other than an asset-based fee) that such stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person is entitled to based on any increase or decrease in the value of shares of the Corporation or Derivative Instruments, if any, including without limitation any such interests held by members of such stockholder’s or any Stockholder Associated Person’s immediate family sharing the same household, (J) a description of all agreements, arrangements or understandings (written or oral) between or among such stockholder, any Stockholder Associated Person or any other person or persons (including their names) in connection with the proposal of such business by such stockholder, (K) any other information relating to such stockholder and any Stockholder Associated Person that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitation of proxies for election of directors (even if an election contest is not involved), or would be otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, (L) a representation that such stockholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the annual meeting to bring such business before the meeting, (M) a statement of whether such stockholder or any Stockholder Associated Person intends, or is part of a group that intends, to (1) deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Corporation’s outstanding share of capital stock required to approve or adopt the proposal and/or (2) otherwise solicit proxies in connection with the proposal, (N) such stockholder’s representation as to the accuracy of the information set forth in the notice to the best of its knowledge and (O) any other information reasonably requested by the Corporation.

(iii) A stockholder providing notice of business proposed to be brought before an annual meeting shall further update and supplement such notice, if necessary, so that the information provided or required to be provided in such notice pursuant to this Section 2.7(a) shall be true and correct as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting and as of the date that is ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, and such update and supplement shall be delivered to, or mailed and received by, the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation (x) in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of such record date, not later than five (5) business days after such record date and (y) in the case of the update and supplement required to be made as of ten (10) business days prior to the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, as applicable, not later than eight (8) business days prior to the date for the meeting or any adjournment or postponement thereof, if practicable (or if not practicable, on the first practicable date prior to the date for the meeting or such adjournment or postponement thereof).

(iv) The foregoing notice requirements of this Section 2.7(a) shall be deemed satisfied by a stockholder as to any proposal (other than nominations) if the stockholder has notified the Corporation of such stockholder’s intention to present such proposal at an annual meeting in compliance with Rule 14a-8 (or any successor thereof) of

8

the Exchange Act, and such stockholder’s proposal has been included in a proxy statement prepared by the Corporation to solicit proxies for such annual meeting. No business shall be conducted at the annual meeting of stockholders except business brought before the annual meeting in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 2.7(a), provided, however, that once business has been properly brought before the annual meeting in accordance with such procedures, nothing in this Section 2.7(a) shall be deemed to preclude discussion by any stockholder of any such business. If the Board or the chairman of the annual meeting determines that any stockholder proposal was not made in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.7(a) or that the information provided in a stockholder’s notice does not satisfy the information requirements of this Section 2.7(a), such proposal shall not be presented for action at the annual meeting.

Article VIIIINDEMNIFICATION

Section 8.1 Right to Indemnification.

(a) Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding,

22

whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (hereinafter a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she, or a person of whom he or she is the legal representative, is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or, while a director, officer or employee of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, other enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (hereinafter a “Covered Person”), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent, or in any other capacity while serving as a director, officer, employee or agent, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL or other applicable statutes of the State of Delaware, as amended from time to time, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), against all expenses, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, excise taxes pursuant to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such Covered Person in connection with such proceeding; provided, however, that, except as provided in Section 8.3 with respect to proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses, the Corporation shall indemnify a Covered Person in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Covered Person only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board.

(b) The entitlement of the Covered Person to indemnification hereunder shall be determined by the following person or persons who shall be empowered to make such determination: (i) the Board by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such proceeding, whether or not such majority constitutes a quorum, (ii) a committee of such directors designated by a majority vote of such directors, whether or not such majority constitutes a quorum, (iii) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Covered Person, (iv) the stockholders of the Corporation or (v) in the event that a change of control (as defined below) has occurred, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Covered Person. For purposes of this Section 8.1(b), a “change of control” will be deemed to have occurred if the individuals who, as of the effective date of these Bylaws, constitute the Board (the “incumbent board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to such effective date whose election, or nomination for election by the stockholders of the Corporation, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the incumbent board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the incumbent board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a person other than the Board.

Section 8.2 Right to Advancement of Expenses. In addition to the right to indemnification conferred in Section 8.1, a Covered Person shall also have the right to be paid by the Corporation the expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) incurred in defending, testifying, or otherwise participating in any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition (hereinafter an “advancement of expenses”); provided, however, that, if the DGCL requires, an

23

advancement of expenses incurred by a Covered Person in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation (and not in any other capacity in which service was or is rendered by such Covered Person, including, without limitation, service to an employee benefit plan) shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (hereinafter an “undertaking”), by or on behalf of such Covered Person, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal (hereinafter a “final adjudication”) that such Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this Article VIII or otherwise.

Section 8.3 Right of Indemnitee to Bring Suit. If a claim under Section 8.1 or Section 8.2 is not paid in full by the Corporation within 60 days after a written claim therefor has been received by the Corporation, except in the case of a claim for an advancement of expenses, in which case the applicable period shall be 20 days, the Covered Person may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim to the fullest extent permitted by law. If successful in whole or in part in any such suit, or in a suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Covered Person shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting or defending such suit. In any suit brought by (a) the Covered Person to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit brought by a Covered Person to enforce a right to an advancement of expenses) it shall be a defense that the Covered Person has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL, and (b) the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Corporation shall be entitled to recover such expenses upon a final adjudication that the Covered Person has not met any applicable standard for indemnification set forth in the DGCL. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification of the Covered Person is proper in the circumstances because the Covered Person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including a determination by its directors who are not parties to such action, a committee of such directors, independent legal counsel, or its stockholders) that the Covered Person has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the Covered Person has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such a suit brought by the Covered Person, shall be a defense to such suit. In any suit brought by the Covered Person to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, or by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the Covered Person is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article VIII or otherwise shall be on the Corporation.

Section 8.4 Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights provided to Covered Persons pursuant to this Article VIII shall not be exclusive of any other right that any Covered Person may have or hereafter acquire under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, these Bylaws, an agreement, a vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

Section 8.5 Insurance. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and/or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another entity, trust or other enterprise who is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as

24

an officer, director, employee or other agent of another enterprise, in each case, against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.

Section 8.6 Indemnification of Other Persons. This Article VIII shall not limit the right of the Corporation to the extent and in the manner permitted by law to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other than Covered Persons. Without limiting the foregoing, the Corporation may, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board, grant rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to any employee (who is not a Covered Person) or agent of the Corporation and to any other person who is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, other enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, to the fullest extent of the provisions of this Article VIII with respect to the indemnification and advancement of expenses of Covered Persons under this Article VIII.

Section 8.7 Amendments. Any repeal or amendment of this Article VIII by the Board or the stockholders of the Corporation or by changes in applicable law, or the adoption of any other provision of these Bylaws inconsistent with this Article VIII, shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prospective only (except to the extent such amendment or change in applicable law permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights to Covered Persons on a retroactive basis than permitted prior thereto), and will not in any way diminish or adversely affect any right or protection existing hereunder in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision.

Section 8.8 Certain Definitions. For purposes of this Article VIII, (a) references to “other enterprise” shall include any employee benefit plan; (b) references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan; (c) references to “serving at the request of the Corporation” shall include any service that imposes duties on, or involves services by, a person with respect to any employee benefit plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and (d) a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interest of the Corporation” for purposes of Section 145 of the DGCL.

Section 8.9 Contract Rights. The rights provided to Covered Persons pursuant to this Article VIII (a) shall be contract rights based upon good and valuable consideration, pursuant to which a Covered Person may bring suit as if the provisions of this Article VIII were set forth in a separate written contract between the Covered Person and the Corporation, (b) shall fully vest at the time the Covered Person first assumes his or her position as a director or officer of the Corporation, or as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, other enterprise or nonprofit entity (including service with respect to an employee benefit plan) at the request of the Corporation (as applicable), (c) are intended to be retroactive and shall be available with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to the adoption of this Article VIII, (d) shall continue as to a Covered Person who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation (or who has ceased to be an employee of the Corporation who served in any capacity with another entity that entitles such Covered Person to rights pursuant

25

to this Article VIII, as applicable) and (e) shall inure to the benefit of the Covered Person’s heirs, executors and administrators.

Section 8.10 Severability. If any provision or provisions of this Article VIII shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (a) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Article VIII shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and (b) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Article VIII (including, without limitation, each such portion of this Article VIII containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested by the provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable.

(the “Company” or “we,” “us” or “our”) registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The following summary description of our capital stock is not complete and for a more detailed description of these securities, you should refer to the applicable provisions of our Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (“Certificate of Incorporation”), our Fifth Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended (“Bylaws”) and our Stockholder Protection Rights Agreement, dated as of September 8, 2022 (the “Rights Agreement”), between the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as Rights Agent, each of which has been filed as exhibits to the periodic reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as well as to applicable provisions of the laws of the State of Delaware, our state of incorporation, including without limitation the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”).

General

Under our Certificate of Incorporation, we have authority to issue 215,000,000 shares of all classes of capital stock, consisting of 200,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share, and 15,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $.001 per share. Under Delaware law, holders of both our common stock and our preferred stock generally are not responsible for our debts or obligations.

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “CBL.”

Pursuant to rights granted to us and the other limited partners in the Fifth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of CBL & Associates Limited Partnership (our “Operating Partnership”), each of the limited partners may, subject to certain conditions, exchange its limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership for shares of our common stock or their cash equivalent, at the Company’s election.

Description of Preferred Stock

Subject to the limitations prescribed by our Certificate of Incorporation, our Board of Directors is authorized to fix the number of shares constituting each series of preferred stock, to fix the voting rights (full or limited, or no voting rights) and to fix the additional designations, powers, preferences and rights of each series and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, all without any further vote or action by our stockholders. In particular, the Board of Directors may determine for each such series any dividend rate, the date, if any, on which dividends will accumulate, the dates, if any, on which dividends will be payable, any redemption rights of such series, any sinking fund provisions, liquidation rights and preferences, and any conversion rights and voting rights. Our Certification of Incorporation also provides that, subject to the rights of the holders of any then-outstanding series of preferred stock, the number of authorized shares of preferred stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting power of our shares of capital stock entitled to vote thereon, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL.

The preferred stock could have voting or conversion rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights of holders of our common stock. Also, the issuance of preferred stock could decrease the amount of earnings and assets available for distribution to holders of our common stock.

Any preferred stock that we may issue in the future will be, when issued, fully paid and non-assessable and (unless otherwise provided in the applicable preferred stock designations) will have no preemptive rights. Both our preferred stock and our common stock are subject to certain ownership restrictions designed to help us maintain our qualification as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, which are described below under “Description of Common Stock - Restrictions on Transfer.”

Description of Common Stock

Voting Rights and Election of Directors

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters voted on by stockholders, including elections of directors, and, except as otherwise required by law or as provided in our Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of those shares exclusively possess all voting power. Under our Certificate of Incorporation, except as otherwise required by law or the Certificate of Incorporation (including any preferred stock designation), holders of common stock will not be entitled to vote on any amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (or to any preferred stock designation) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of preferred stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other series of preferred stock, to vote on any such amendment pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation (including any preferred stock designation) or pursuant to the DGCL.

Under our Bylaws, directors are elected by the affirmative vote of the holders of a plurality of the shares of the common stock present or represented at the annual meeting of stockholders and entitled to vote thereon. Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that director vacancies may be filled solely by a majority vote of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director (and not by our stockholders). Neither our Certificate of Incorporation nor our Bylaws provides for cumulative voting in the election of directors. Since our 2014 Annual Meeting, following the declassification of our Board of Directors as approved by our stockholders, directors have been elected annually. While the issue is not currently addressed by either our Certificate of Incorporation or our Bylaws, our Corporate Governance Guidelines require that a majority of the members of our Board of Directors must be “independent” pursuant to independence standards set forth in an exhibit to the Corporate Governance Guidelines, which also requires a majority of our directors to be independent in accordance with applicable requirements for NYSE listed companies.

Additionally, in 2014 our Board of Directors amended our Corporate Governance Guidelines to implement a majority voting policy which provides that a director who is nominated in an uncontested election, and who receives a greater number of votes “withheld” from his or her election than votes “for” such election, is required to immediately tender his or her resignation to the Board of Directors for consideration. The Board’s Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee will then make a recommendation to our Board of Directors on whether to accept or reject the resignation, which the Board will consider and publicly disclose its decision to either accept or reject the resignation within 90 days from the date of certification of the election results. A director whose resignation is being considered will not participate in the recommendation of the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee or the decision of the Board of Directors.

Dividend and Liquidation Rights

Subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding series of preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive such dividends and other distributions (payable in cash, property or capital stock of the Company) as may be declared from time to time by our Board of Directors from funds which are legally available, and upon liquidation are entitled to receive pro rata all of our assets available for distribution to the holders of common stock. Holders of common stock are not entitled to any preemptive rights. All of the outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

Limitation of Liability of Directors

Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent the DGCL or any other law of the State of Delaware as the same exists or is hereafter amended permits the limitation or elimination of the liability of directors (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits us to provide broader indemnification rights than were permitted prior to such amendment), no person who is or was a director of the Company shall be personally liable to the Company or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. The Certificate of

Incorporation also provides that any repeal or amendment of this provision, or adoption of another, inconsistent provision, will, unless otherwise required by law, be prospective only (unless it permits us to further limit or eliminate the liability of directors), and shall not adversely affect any then-existing right.

Our Certificate of Incorporation also provides for indemnification against liabilities, losses and reasonably incurred expenses in connection with any covered proceeding (as defined therein) brought by reason of the fact that a covered person was serving as a director or officer of the Company, or by reason of a person’s service at the request of the Company, while a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, as a director, officer, employee or agent of other specified entities. The Certificate of Incorporation also includes parallel provisions related to advancement of expenses, subject to an undertaking (if required by the DGCL) to repay amounts advanced if it shall ultimately be determined, by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal that the indemnitee was not entitled to be indemnified. Our Bylaws include provisions consistent with the Certificate of Incorporation providing for indemnification and advancement of expenses, including provisions governing the right of a covered person to bring suit against the Company to enforce such rights (subject to the Company’s defenses and rights to recovery prescribed therein). Our Bylaws also specify that, in the event of a change of control of the Company (as defined therein), the determination of whether a covered person is entitled to indemnification will be made by independent legal counsel in a written opinion to our Board of Directors.

While our Certificate of Incorporation provides directors with protection from awards for monetary damages for breaches of their duty of care, it does not eliminate such duty. Accordingly, our Certificate of Incorporation will have no effect on the availability of equitable remedies such as an injunction or rescission based on a director’s breach of his or her duty of care.

Indemnification Agreements

We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our officers and directors. The indemnification agreements require, among other things, that we indemnify our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by law, and advance to our officers and directors all related expenses, subject to reimbursement if it is subsequently determined that indemnification is not permitted. We must also indemnify and advance all expenses incurred by officers and directors who are successful in seeking to enforce their rights under the indemnification agreements, and cover officers and directors under our directors’ and officers’ liability insurance. Although the form of indemnification agreement offers substantially the same scope of coverage afforded by provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, it provides greater assurance to directors and officers that indemnification will be available because, as a contract, it cannot be modified unilaterally in the future by our Board of Directors or by the stockholders to eliminate the rights it provides.

Related Party Transactions and Corporate Opportunities

Our Certificate of Incorporation includes a provision to the effect that (i) no contract or other transaction of the Company with any other person, firm, corporation or other entity in which the Company has an interest shall be affected or invalidated by the fact that any one or more of the directors or officers of the Company, individually or jointly with others, may be a party to or may be interested in such contract or transaction so long as the contract or other transaction is approved by the Company’s Board or a duly authorized committee thereof in accordance with the DGCL and (ii) relieving any director or officer of the Company, in his or her capacity as such, from any personal liability relating solely to the fact that such matter was contracted for the benefit of any such person or any such firm or corporation. The Certificate of Incorporation also provides that neither the stockholders of the Company or any of their Affiliates or Related Funds, nor any Non-Employee Director of the Company or his or her Affiliates (all as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation), shall have any duty to refrain from (x) engaging in a corporate opportunity in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as the Company or any of its Affiliates is engaged or proposes to engage, (y) making investments in any kind of property in which the Company makes or may make investments or (z) otherwise competing with the Company or any of its Affiliates, and provides that, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, no such person shall (A) be deemed to have acted in bad faith or in a manner inconsistent with the best interests of the Company or its stockholders or to have acted

in a manner inconsistent with or opposed to any fiduciary duty to the Company or its stockholders or (B) be liable to the Company or its stockholders for breach of any fiduciary duty, in each case, by reason of any such activities (the “Corporate Opportunity Exculpation Clause”). The Certificate of Incorporation includes a similar Corporate Opportunity Exculpation Clause providing that no such covered individual shall have any obligation to communicate or offer such an opportunity to the Company and its affiliates, and that the Company renounces any interest or expectancy in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any business opportunity which may be a corporate opportunity both for the Company (or any of its affiliates) and for any such Non-Employee Director of the Company or his or her Affiliates and the Company or any of its Affiliates, except for any corporate opportunity expressly offered to a Non-Employee Director solely in his or her capacity as a director (or officer, if applicable) of the Corporation. The Certificate of Incorporation further states that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any person purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of the Company shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to these provisions.

Forum Selection Provision

Our Certificate of Incorporation includes a forum selection provision which provides that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or, if and only if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware lacks subject matter jurisdiction, any state or Federal court located within the State of Delaware) shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or by any stockholder of the Company, to the Company or the Company’s stockholders, (c) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or pursuant to any provision of our Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or (d) any action asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine.

The Certificate of Incorporation states that any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in shares of capital stock of the Company shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to such forum selection provisions. Additionally, the Certificate of Incorporation provides that, if an action covered by such forum selection clause is filed in the name of any stockholder in a court not located in the State of Delaware without the approval of our Board of Directors, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented (a) to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in such court to enforce such clause and (b) to having service of process made upon such stockholder therein by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the applicable action.

Other Provisions of Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws include a number of provisions that may have the effect of encouraging persons considering unsolicited tender offers or other unilateral takeover proposals to negotiate with our Board of Directors rather than pursue non-negotiated takeover attempts. These provisions include:

Director Removal or Resignation. Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that, subject to the right of holders of any series of preferred stock separately entitled to elect one or more directors, if any such right has been granted, directors may be removed with or without cause but only by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares entitled to vote in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. Our Bylaws provide that a director may resign at any time; however, any such resignation must be provided in written form (which may be delivered via email or other electronic transmission) and will be effective at the time the notice is received by the Secretary of the Company.

Advance Notice Requirements. Our Bylaws establish advance notice procedures with regard to stockholder proposals relating to the nomination of candidates for election as directors or new business to be brought before meetings of our stockholders. These procedures provide the only persons who will be eligible for election as directors are persons who are nominated by or at the direction of the Board of

Directors, or by a stockholder who has complied with the advance notice procedures by giving timely written notice containing specified information to the Secretary prior to the meeting at which directors are to be elected. The only business that may be conducted at a meeting is business that has been brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the Board of Directors (including proposals properly made in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act and brought before the meeting at the direction of the Board) or by a stockholder who has given timely written notice containing specified information to the Secretary of the stockholder's intention to bring the business before the meeting. Generally, to be timely, notice must be received at our principal executive offices not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the date on which we first mailed proxy materials for the preceding year’s annual meeting. Our Bylaws also provide that no stockholder that has provided timely notice of a director nomination pursuant to the requirements of the Bylaws shall be permitted to submit any additional or substitute nominations of persons for election as directors following the expiration of the time period described in the preceding sentence.

Our Bylaws require that a notice pertaining to business to be brought before a meeting of our stockholders (other than nominations for directors) also must contain certain information specified in the Bylaws in order to allow for full consideration by the Board of Directors and stockholders of issues relevant to (A) the status of any person introducing such business as a stockholder of the Company entitled to do so and qualified to vote on the matter, (B) prescribed information concerning various direct or indirect interests in securities of the Company held by the proponent, (C) any other direct or indirect interests that the proponent may have in the proposed business, and (D) a commitment of the proponent to appear in person or by proxy at the stockholder meeting to present such business, and information concerning whether the proponent or specified related parties intend to solicit proxies for such meeting.

Any notice pertaining to stockholder nominations of candidates for election as directors also must contain certain information specified in the Bylaws in order to allow for full consideration by the Board of Directors and stockholders of issues relevant to (A) the qualifications of any stockholder-nominated candidate to serve as a director of the Company, (B) the status of any person introducing such director nomination or other business as a stockholder of the Company entitled to do so and qualified to vote on the matter, (C) prescribed information concerning various direct or indirect interests in securities of the Company held by the proponent or by the director nominee, (D) any relationships between the stockholder proponent and any director nominee (including any Voting Commitment (as defined in the Bylaws) made by the proposed nominee), or any direct or indirect interests of either party in such director nomination (including a description of all direct and indirect compensation or other material monetary agreements, arrangements or understandings during the past 3 years, and any other material relationships between the proposed nominee and other specified parties, including the proponent) and (E) a commitment of the proponent to appear in person or by proxy at the stockholder meeting to present such nomination, and information concerning whether the proponent or specified related parties intend to solicit proxies for such meeting. Our Bylaws also require that no person may solicit proxies in support of a director nominee other than the Board’s nominees unless such person complies with Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act, including applicable notice and solicitation requirements. A stockholder submitting a nomination must (i) make a representation as to whether such stockholder intends to solicit proxies in support of their nominees from the holders of at least 67% of the voting power of the Company’s outstanding stock entitled to vote in the election of directors, (ii)promptly notify the Company if such stockholder subsequently fails to comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(2) and Rule 14a-19(a)(3) under the Exchange Act and (iii) deliver reasonable evidence of compliance with the proxy solicitation requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(3) under the Exchange Act at least eight (8) business days prior to the applicable meeting. Our Bylaws also provide that if any stockholder (A) provides the notice described above pursuant to Rule 14a-19(b) under the Exchange Act and (B) subsequently fails to comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(2) and Rule 14a-19(a)(3) under the Exchange Act, including providing the Company with the notices required thereunder in a timely manner, then the Company shall disregard any proxies or votes solicited for such stockholder’s proposed nominee(s).

Our Bylaws also provide that the number of proposed directors nominated by a stockholder may not exceed the number of directors that constitute the Whole Board (as defined below) at the time of any such nomination (or, if applicable, such greater or lesser number of directors to be elected at the applicable

annual or special meeting). Any stockholder proposing the nomination of candidates for election as directors or other business also must update and supplement any such notices, if necessary, such that the required information is true and correct as of the meeting record date and as of the date that is 10 business days prior to the meeting and any adjournment or postponement of the meeting. Further, any stockholder soliciting proxies (in support of one or more candidates for election as directors or in support of other business) must use a proxy card color other than white.

Written Consent of Stockholders and Calling of Special Meetings. Our Certificate of Incorporation, as well as our Bylaws, require all stockholder actions to be taken by a vote of the stockholders at an annual or special meeting and do not permit action by stockholder consent. Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws provide that a special meeting may be called by the Chairman of the Board or by the Board of Directors pursuant to a resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of directors which the Company would have if there were no vacancies (the “Whole Board”) and shall be called by the Secretary and the Board upon the delivery of a written request from of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of our common stock (as “Stockholder-Requested Meeting”). Our Bylaws provide that, to be valid, such a written request must (i) be in writing, signed and dated by or on behalf of one or more stockholder(s) of record representing at least a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock, (ii) set forth the proposed date, time and place of the special meeting (which may not be earlier than sixty (60) days after the datethe request is delivered (or ninety (90) days in the case of a Stockholder-Requested Meeting to elect directors), provided that such proposed date, time and place shall not be binding on the Company or the Board), (iii) set forth a statement of the purpose or purposes of and the matters proposed to be acted on at the special meeting, (iv) include the required information described under “Advance Notice Requirements” above and (v) be delivered personally or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Company.

Amendments to Certificate of Incorporation. Amending our Certificate of Incorporation requires approval by both (i) the affirmative vote of a majority of our Board of Directors and (ii) the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all of our outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, in addition to any other approval that may be required by of the holders of any class or series of such stock pursuant to the Certificate of Incorporation or applicable law.

Bylaw Amendments. Amending our Bylaws requires either (i) the approval of a majority of the Whole Board or (ii) approval by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of our common stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (in addition to any separate class vote, if required by the Certificate of Incorporation or applicable law).

Lost Certificates. Our Bylaws include specified requirements concerning the replacement of any stock certificate claimed to have been lost, stolen, destroyed or wrongfully taken, including allowing us to request an appropriate bond as a condition to such replacement, and provide that if the owner fails to notify the Company of such event within a reasonable time and the Company registers a transfer of such shares before receiving notification, the owner shall be precluded from asserting a related claim against the Company.

Non-Applicability of Delaware Anti-Takeover Statute

While we are a Delaware corporation, under our current Certificate of Incorporation we are not subject to Section 203 of the DGCL (which had previously applied to the Company under our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation prior to the Company’s emergence from reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code in November 2021). In general, when it applies Section 203 prevents an “interested stockholder” (defined generally as a person owning 15% or more of a company’s outstanding voting stock) from engaging in a “business combination” (as defined in Section 203) with any covered company for three years following the date that person becomes an interested stockholder (subject to certain exceptions specified in Section 203).

Rights Agreement

On September 8, 2022, our Board of Directors declared a dividend of one right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of our common stock held of record at the close of business on September 22, 2022 (the “Record Time”) or issued thereafter and prior to the Separation Time (as hereinafter defined) and thereafter pursuant to options and convertible securities outstanding at the Separation Time. The Rights were issued pursuant to a Stockholder Protection Rights Agreement, dated as of September 8, 2022 (the “Rights Agreement”), between the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as Rights Agent (the “Rights Agent”). Each Right entitles its registered holder to purchase from the Company, after the Separation Time, one share of common stock or one one-thousandth of a share of Participating Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Participating Preferred Stock”), for $150.00 (the “Exercise Price”), subject to adjustment.

The Rights will be evidenced by the common stock certificates (or, in the case of uncertificated shares of common stock, by the registration of the associated common stock on the Company’s stock transfer books) until the Separation Time, which is defined as the next business day following the earlier of (either, the “Separation Time”) (i) the tenth business day (or such later date as our Board of Directors may from time to time fix by resolution adopted prior to the Separation Time that would otherwise have occurred) after the date on which any Person (as defined in the Rights Agreement) commences a tender or exchange offer which, if consummated, would result in such Person’s becoming an Acquiring Person, as defined below, and (ii) the Flip-in Date (as defined below); provided that if the foregoing results in the Separation Time being prior to the Record Time, the Separation Time shall be the Record Time; and provided further that if a tender or exchange offer referred to in clause (i) is cancelled, terminated or otherwise withdrawn prior to the Separation Time without the purchase of any shares of stock pursuant thereto, such offer shall be deemed never to have been made. A Flip-in Date will occur on any Stock Acquisition Date (as defined below) or such later date and time as our Board of Directors may from time to time fix by resolution adopted prior to the Flip-in Date that would otherwise have occurred. A Stock Acquisition Date means the first date on which we announce that a Person has become an Acquiring Person, which announcement makes express reference to such status as an Acquiring Person. An Acquiring Person is any Person having Beneficial Ownership (as defined in the Rights Agreement) of 10% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock, which term shall not include (i) any Person who is the Beneficial Owner of 10% or more of the outstanding common stock at the time of the first public announcement of the Rights Agreement and who continuously thereafter is the Beneficial Owner of 10% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock, until such time thereafter as such Person becomes the Beneficial Owner (other than by means of a stock dividend, stock split or reclassification) of additional shares of common stock that, in the aggregate, amount to 0.1% or more of the outstanding common stock, (ii) any Person who shall become the Beneficial Owner of 10% or more of the outstanding common stock solely as a result of an acquisition of common stock by the Company, until such time as such Person acquires additional common stock, other than through a stock dividend, stock split or reclassification, aggregating 0.1% or more of the outstanding common stock, or any Person who becomes the Beneficial Owner of 10% or more of the outstanding common stock solely as a result of the occurrence of a Flip-in Date which has not resulted from the acquisition of Beneficial Ownership of common stock by such Person, (iii) any Person who becomes the Beneficial Owner of 10% or more of the outstanding common stock without any plan or intent to seek or affect control of the Company if such Person promptly divests sufficient securities such that such 10% or greater Beneficial Ownership ceases or (iv) any Person who Beneficially Owns shares of common stock consisting solely of (A) shares acquired pursuant to the grant or exercise of an option granted by the Company in connection with an agreement to merge with, or acquire, the Company entered into prior to a Flip-in Date, (B) shares owned by such Person and its affiliates and associates at the time of such grant and (C) shares, amounting to less than 1% of the outstanding common stock, acquired by affiliates and associates of such Person after the time of such grant. Beneficial Ownership includes, solely for purposes of determining whether any Person is an Acquiring Person, shares Constructively Owned (as defined in the Rights Agreement) in respect of which a Person has a Synthetic Long Position (as defined in the Rights Agreement). The Rights Agreement provides that, until the Separation Time, the Rights will be transferred with and only with the common stock. Common stock certificates issued after the Record Time but prior to the Separation Time (or the registration of common stock in the Company’s stock transfer books with respect to uncertificated shares) shall evidence one Right for each share of common stock represented

thereby and such certificates (or confirmation of registration with respect to uncertificated shares) shall contain a legend incorporating by reference the terms of the Rights Agreement (as such may be amended from time to time). Notwithstanding the absence of the aforementioned legend, certificates evidencing shares of common stock outstanding at the Record Time (or registration) shall also evidence one Right for each share of common stock evidenced thereby. Promptly following the Separation Time, separate certificates evidencing the Rights (“Rights Certificates”) will be delivered to holders of record of common stock at the Separation Time.

The Rights will not be exercisable until the Separation Time. The Rights will expire on the earliest of (i) the Exchange Time (as defined below), (ii) the date on which the Rights are redeemed as described below, (iii) the close of business on September 8, 2023 and (iv) immediately prior to the effective time of a consolidation, merger or statutory share exchange that does not constitute a Flip-over Transaction or Event, as defined below, in which the common stock is converted into, or into the right to receive, another security, cash or other consideration.

The Exercise Price and the number of Rights outstanding, or in certain circumstances the securities purchasable upon exercise of the Rights, are subject to adjustment from time to time to prevent dilution in the event of a common stock dividend on, or a subdivision or a combination into a smaller number of shares of, common stock, or the issuance or distribution of any securities or assets in respect of, in lieu of or in exchange for common stock.

In the event that prior to the Expiration Time a Flip-in Date occurs, we will take such action as shall be necessary to ensure and provide that each Right (other than Rights Beneficially Owned by the Acquiring Person or any affiliate or associate thereof, which Rights shall become void) shall constitute the right to purchase from the Company, upon the exercise thereof in accordance with the terms of the Rights Agreement, that number of shares of our common stock having an aggregate Market Price (as defined in the Rights Agreement), on the Stock Acquisition Date that gave rise to the Flip-in Date, equal to twice the Exercise Price for an amount in cash equal to the then current Exercise Price.

Promptly after the Flip-in Date, the Company will amend the agreement of limited partnership of its operating partnership or take such other actions as may be required to ensure that, in its sole discretion, each holder of limited partnership units (other than the Company, an Acquiring Person or an Affiliate or Associate of an Acquiring Person) will not be unfairly diluted as a result thereof.

Our Board of Directors may, at its option, at any time after a Flip-in Date and prior to the time that an Acquiring Person becomes the Beneficial Owner of more than 50% of the outstanding shares of common stock, elect to exchange all (but not less than all) the then outstanding Rights (other than Rights Beneficially Owned by the Acquiring Person or any affiliate or associate thereof, which Rights become void) for shares of common stock at an exchange ratio of one share of common stock per Right, appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend or similar transaction occurring after the date of the Separation Time (the “Exchange Ratio”). Immediately upon such action by the Board of Directors (the “Exchange Time”), the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and each Right will thereafter represent only the right to receive a number of shares of common stock equal to the Exchange Ratio.

Whenever the Company shall become obligated, as described in the preceding paragraphs, to issue shares of common stock upon exercise of or in exchange for Rights, the Company, at its option, may substitute therefor shares of Participating Preferred Stock, at a ratio of one one-thousandth of a share of Participating Preferred Stock for each share of common stock so issuable.

In the event that prior to the Expiration Time the Company enters into an agreement with respect to, consummates or permits to occur a transaction or series of transactions after a Flip-in Date in which, directly or indirectly, (i) the Company shall consolidate or merge or participate in a statutory share exchange with any other Person if, immediately prior to the consolidation, merger or share exchange or at the time the Company enters into an agreement with respect to such consolidation, merger or statutory share exchange, the Acquiring Person controls our Board of Directors or is the Beneficial Owner of 50% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock and either (A) any term of or arrangement concerning the

treatment of shares of capital stock in such merger, consolidation or statutory share exchange relating to the Acquiring Person is not identical to the terms and arrangements relating to other holders of common stock or (B) the Person with whom such transaction or series of transactions occurs is the Acquiring Person or its associate or affiliate or (ii) the Company shall sell or otherwise transfer (or one or more of its subsidiaries shall sell or otherwise transfer) assets (A) aggregating more than 50% of the assets (measured by either book value or fair market value) or (B) generating more than 50% of the operating income or cash flow, of the Company and its subsidiaries (taken as a whole) to any other Person (other than the Company or one or more of its wholly owned subsidiaries) or to two or more such Persons which are affiliated or otherwise acting in concert, if, at the time the Company (or any such subsidiary) enters into an agreement with respect to such sale or transfer, the Acquiring Person controls the Board of Directors of the Company (any such transaction or event described in clause (i) or (ii) of this sentence, a “Flip-over Transaction or Event”), the Company shall not enter into, consummate or permit to occur such Flip-over Transaction or Event unless and until it shall have entered into a supplemental agreement with the Person engaging in such Flip-over Transaction or Event or the parent corporation thereof (the “Flip-over Entity”), for the benefit of the holders of the Rights, providing, that upon consummation or occurrence of the Flip-over Transaction or Event (i) each Right shall thereafter constitute the right to purchase from the Flip-over Entity, upon exercise thereof in accordance with the terms of the Rights Agreement, that number of shares of common stock of the Flip-over Entity having an aggregate Market Price on the date of consummation or occurrence of such Flip-over Transaction or Event equal to twice the Exercise Price for an amount in cash equal to the then current Exercise Price and (ii) the Flip-over Entity shall thereafter be liable for, and shall assume, by virtue of such Flip-over Transaction or Event and such supplemental agreement, all the obligations and duties of the Company pursuant to the Rights Agreement. For purposes of the foregoing description, the term “Acquiring Person” shall include any Acquiring Person and its affiliates and associates counted together as a single Person.

Our Board of Directors may, at its option, at any time prior to the Flip-in Date, redeem all (but not less than all) the then outstanding Rights at a price of $0.001 per Right (the “Redemption Price”), as provided in the Rights Agreement. Immediately upon the action of our Board of Directors electing to redeem the Rights, without any further action and without any notice, the right to exercise the Rights will terminate and each Right will thereafter represent only the right to receive the Redemption Price in cash or securities for each Right so held.

The holders of Rights will, solely by reason of their ownership of Rights, have no rights as stockholders of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to vote or to receive dividends.

The Rights will not prevent a takeover of the Company. However, the Rights may cause substantial dilution to a person or group that acquires 10% or more of the common stock unless the Rights are first redeemed, or the Rights Agreement terminated, by our Board of Directors. Nevertheless, the Rights should not interfere with a transaction that is in the best interests of the Company and our stockholders because the Rights can be redeemed, or the Rights Agreement terminated, on or prior to the Flip-in Date, before the consummation of such transaction.

Operating Partnership Distributions Fund Dividends on Our Capital Stock

Because the Company conducts substantially all of its operations through our Operating Partnership, our ability to service our debt obligations, as well as our ability to pay dividends on our common and any outstanding preferred stock depends almost entirely upon the earnings and cash flows of the Operating Partnership and the ability of the Operating Partnership to make distributions to the Company on our ownership interests in the Operating Partnership. Under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act, the Operating Partnership is prohibited from making any distribution to us to the extent that at the time of the distribution, after giving effect to the distribution, all liabilities of the Operating Partnership (other than some non-recourse liabilities and some liabilities to the partners) exceed the fair value of the assets of the Operating Partnership.

Restrictions on Transfer

For us to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, not more than 50% in value of our outstanding capital stock may be owned, directly or indirectly, by five or fewer individuals (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code to include certain entities) during the last half of any taxable year. In addition, our capital stock must be beneficially owned by 100 or more persons during at least 335 days of a taxable year of 12 months or during a proportionate part of a shorter taxable year and certain percentages of our gross income must be from particular activities.

To ensure that we remain a qualified REIT, our Certificate of Incorporation contains provisions, collectively referred to as the ownership limit provision, restricting the acquisition of shares of our capital stock. The ownership limit generally prohibits ownership of more than 9.9% of the outstanding shares of our capital stock (or of any class of such stock) by any single stockholder, either directly or constructively as determined through the application of applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Our Certificate of Incorporation also establishes modified Existing Holder Limits and Existing Constructive Holder Limits (each as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation), applicable as of the effective date of our emergence from Chapter 11 reorganization on November 1, 2021, for any person that owned shares of our new common stock in excess of the otherwise applicable 9.9% Ownership Limit and 9.9% Constructive Ownership Limit as of such date. Pursuant to these provisions, as of November 1, 2021, we had two stockholder group subject to such limits: Oaktree Capital Group, LLC and certain of its affiliates (“Oaktree”), and (ii) Canyon Capital Advisors LLC and certain of its affiliates (“Canyon”). On the Limitation Date, Oaktree and Canyon held shares of our common stock and 7% Secured Exchangeable Notes due 2028 (“Exchangeable Notes”). Exchangeable Notes were exchangeable at any time prior to their maturity, with the Company having the ability to elect whether to consummate the exchange in cash, common stock, or a combination thereof. On the Limitation Date, Oaktree held 19.0% of the outstanding common stock, after giving effect to shares that could be acquired upon the exchange of Exchangeable Notes held by Oaktree in addition to common stock held by Oaktree on such date. On the Limitation Date, Canyon held 33.1% of the outstanding common stock, after giving effect to shares that could be acquired upon the exchange of Exchangeable Notes held by Canyon in addition to common stock hold by Canyon on such date. These Existing Holder Limits will continue to apply to each of such holders unless they request, and our Board of Directors grants, a waiver that would allow a further increase to either of such Existing Holder Limits as described in the next paragraph.

Our Board of Directors may, subject to certain conditions, waive the applicable ownership limit upon receipt of a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service or an opinion of counsel to the effect that such ownership will not jeopardize our status as a REIT. The ownership limit provision will cease to apply only if our Board of Directors determines that it is no longer in the best interests of the Company to attempt to, or continue to, qualify as a REIT.

Any issuance or transfer of capital stock to any person (A) in excess of the applicable ownership limit, (B) which would cause us to be beneficially owned by fewer than 100 persons or (C) which would result in the Company being “closely held” within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Internal Revenue Code, will be null and void and the intended transferee will acquire no rights to the stock. Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that any acquisition and continued holding or ownership of our capital stock constitutes a continuous representation of compliance with the applicable ownership limit by the beneficial or constructive owner of such stock.

Any purported transfer or other event that would, if effective, violate the ownership limit or cause the Company to be “closely held” within the meaning of Section 856(h) of the Internal Revenue Code, will be deemed void ab initio with respect to that number of shares of our capital stock that would be owned by the transferee in excess of the applicable ownership limit provision. Such shares would automatically be transferred to a trust with the Company or its designated successor serving as trustee, for the exclusive benefit of a charitable beneficiary to be designated by us.

Any shares so held in trust will be issued and outstanding shares of our capital stock, entitled to the same rights and privileges as all other issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of the same class

and series. All dividends and other distributions paid by us with respect to the shares held in trust will be held by the trustee for the benefit of the designated charitable beneficiary. The trustee will have the power to vote all shares held in trust from and after the date the shares are deemed to be transferred into trust. The prohibited owner will be required to repay any dividends or other distributions received by it which are attributable to the shares held in trust if the record date for such dividends or distributions was on or after the date those shares were transferred to the trust. We can take all measures we deem necessary in order to recover such amounts, including, if necessary, withholding any portion of future dividends payable on other shares of our capital stock held by such prohibited owner.

Within twenty (20) days after receiving notice from the Company that the shares have been transferred to the trust, the trustee shall sell the shares held in the trust to a person, designated by the trustee, whose ownership of the shares will not violate the applicable ownership limitations (a “permitted transferee”). The trustee will pay to the aforementioned prohibited owner the lesser of: (i) the price paid by such prohibited for the shares or, if such prohibited owner did not give value for the shares in connection with the event causing the shares to be held in the trust (e.g., in the case of a gift, devise or other such transaction or a Non-Transfer Event (as defined in the Certificate of Incorporation)), the Market Price (generally, the last reported sale price for the shares on the NYSE) on the day of the event causing the shares to be held in the trust and (ii) the price received by the trustee from the sale of such shares to the permitted transferee (net of any commissions and other expenses of sale). The excess (if any) of (x) the sale proceeds from the transfer to the permitted transferee over (y) the amount paid to the prohibited owner, will be distributed to the charitable beneficiary.

We or our designee will have the right to purchase any shares-in-trust, within a limited period of time, at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the price per share in the transaction that resulted in the transfer of such shares to the trust (or, in the case of a gift, devise or other such transaction or a Non-Transfer Event (as defined), the Market Price (generally, the last reported sale price for the shares on the NYSE) at the time of such gift, devise or Non-Transfer Event) and (ii) the Market Price on the date that we, or our designee, accept such offer.

The ownership limit provision will not be automatically removed even if the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code are changed so as to no longer contain any ownership concentration limitation or if the ownership concentration limitation is increased. Except as otherwise described above, any change in the ownership limit would require an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation. In addition to preserving our status as a REIT, the ownership limit may have the effect of precluding an acquisition of control of the Company without the approval of our Board of Directors.

All certificates representing shares of any class of stock will bear a legend referring to the restrictions described above.

All persons who own, directly or by virtue of the attribution provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, more than 5% (or such other percentage as may be required by the Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Internal Revenue Code) of the value of our outstanding shares of capital stock must file an affidavit with us containing the information specified in our Certificate of Incorporation before January 30 of each year. In addition, each stockholder will, upon demand, be required to disclose to us in writing such information with respect to the direct, indirect and constructive ownership of shares of capital stock as our Board of Directors deems necessary to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to a REIT or to comply with the requirements of any taxing authority or governmental agency.

STOCK RESTRICTION AGREEMENT

THIS DOCUMENT CONSTITUTES PART OF A PROSPECTUS COVERING SECURITIES THAT HAVE BEEN

REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933. NEITHER THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THESE SECURITIES OR PASSED

ON THE ADEQUACY OR ACCURACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS.

This Non-Employee Director Annual Award Stock Restriction Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made as of the _____ day of December 20[__] (the “Agreement Date”), by and between CBL & ASSOCIATES PROPERTIES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and [ ] (the “Non-Employee Director”).

WHEREAS, Non-Employee Director is member of the Board of Directors of the Company and of CBL & Associates Management, Inc. (the “CBL Management Company”, an affiliate of the Company;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Equity Incentive Plan (as hereinafter defined) and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Company desires to grant to the Non-Employee Director ____________ shares of Common Stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in connection with the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

The Non-Employee Director’s date of receipt of the Stock Award set forth in this Agreement shall be and is December __, 20[__] (the “Receipt Date”).

1. Definitions; Conflicts. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) as may be hereafter amended. The terms and provisions of the Equity Incentive Plan are incorporated herein and in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms and provisions of the Equity Incentive Plan and the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the terms and provisions of the Equity Incentive Plan shall govern and control.Specifically, but without limitation, the granting of the Stock Awards under this Agreement and any and all issuances of shares of Common Stock for Stock Awards pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to the terms and provisions of the Equity Incentive Plan including but not limited to any term in the Equity Incentive Plan providing a maximum limitation on the number of shares of Common Stock that may be subject to the Stock Awards granted to the Executive Officer pursuant to this Agreement in any calendar year.

2. Grant of Common Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company hereby grants to the Non-Employee Director all right, title and interest in ___________ shares of Common Stock (the “Stock Award”).

3. Vesting. As used in this Agreement, the term “vest” or “vesting” shall mean the immediate, non-forfeitable, fixed right of present or future enjoyment of the Common Stock pursuant to the Stock Award. The Stock Award shall vest on January 1, 20[__] (the “Vesting Date”). The period from the Receipt Date to the Vesting Date shall be referred to herein as the “Vesting Period”. For purposes of valuation of the Stock Award on the Vesting Date (for tax purposes), the value shall be the average of the high and low trading prices of the Company’s Common Stock on the last trading day on the New York Stock Exchange (or such other stock exchange upon which the Company’s Common Stock is then traded)

prior to the Vesting Date. If the Stock Award shall be deemed vested pursuant to the provisions of Paragraph 4 below prior to the Vesting Date, the value (for tax purposes) of the Stock Award shall be the average of the high and low trading prices of the Company’s Common Stock on the date of termination of directorship (if such is a day upon which the Company’s Common Stock was traded on the NYSE or such other exchange upon which the Company’s Common stock was then traded), and if the Company’s Common Stock was not traded on such date of termination of directorship, then the valuation (for tax purposes) shall be based upon the last day prior to such date of termination of directorship upon which the Company’s Common Stock was traded on the NYSE or such other exchange upon which the Company’s Common stock was then traded.

4. Termination of Directorship. (a) General. Except as set forth in this Paragraph 4, if the Non-Employee Director ceases to be a member of the Board of Directors of the Company and the CBL Management Company for any reason prior to the Vesting Date, the Stock Award shall thereupon be forfeited and returned to the Company and the Non-Employee Director shall have no further right, title and/or interest in the shares of Common Stock subject to the Stock Award.

(b) Death or Disability. If the Non-Employee Director’s directorship with the Company and CBL Management Company terminates for reasons of the Non-Employee Director’s death or disability (as defined herein) prior to the Vesting Date, the Stock Award shall immediately, on the date of such termination, thereupon vest in the Non-Employee Director or his/her estate. For purposes hereof, the term “disability” refers to the complete and permanent disability of the Non-Employee Director as defined by the Company’s health insurance plans or as otherwise defined by the Company from time to time. The Non-Employee Director acknowledges and agrees that the determination of disability shall be within the sole, absolute and exclusive discretion of the Company.

(c) “Change of Control”. If the Non-Employee Director’s directorship with the Company and CBL Management Company terminates upon a “Change of Control”, as defined in the Equity Incentive Plan, prior to the Vesting Date, the Stock Award shall immediately, on the date of such termination, thereupon vest in the Non-Employee Director.

5. Rights as a Shareholder. The Non-Employee Director shall have all of the rights as a shareholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the Stock Award subject only to the transfer restrictions set forth in Paragraph 6 below and forfeiture provisions set forth above. The Non-Employee Director’s rights as a shareholder shall include the rights to receive all dividends on the Common Stock and to exercise any voting rights attributable to the Common Stock for so long as the Non-Employee Director shall own the Common Stock but such rights shall cease as to the shares of Common Stock subject to the Stock Award that are forfeited pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

6. Non-Transferability of Stock Award. Except for any transfers that may be required by law, including pursuant to any domestic relations order or otherwise, no non-vested portion of the Common Stock making up the Stock Award may be transferred by the Non-Employee Director until the termination of the Vesting Period (or immediate vesting pursuant to the provisions of Paragraphs 4 above on terminations of directorship with the Company and the CBL Management Company for death or disability or on a “Change of Control”) and any non-permitted attempted transfer by the Non-Employee Director of any such non-vested portion prior to the termination of the Vesting Period shall be null and void. Any transferee who may receive any of such non-vested portion of the Common Stock making up the Stock Award pursuant to a transfer required by law as set forth above shall be subject to all the terms and provisions of this Agreement and any termination of the directorship of the Non-Employee Director prior to the termination of the Vesting Period (except for terminations of directorship pursuant to Paragraph 4 above on death or disability or on a “Change of Control”) shall cause the forfeiture of any non-vested shares of the Common Stock making up the Stock Award even if such shares are in the hands of a transferee.

7. Restricted Stock Account; Uncertificated Shares. The Non-Employee Director understands and acknowledges that the shares of Common Stock issued to the Non-Employee Director pursuant to the Stock Award will be held in an uncertificated form in a restricted stock account maintained by the Company’s stock transfer agent for the Non-Employee Director until such time as such shares of Common Stock are no longer subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement. The Non-Employee Director understands and acknowledges that as the shares of Common Stock issued to the Non-Employee Director pursuant to the Stock Award shall vest during the Vesting Period and upon such vesting, the Company shall cause such vested shares to be issued out of the above-stated restricted stock account and delivered to an unrestricted stock account maintained by the Company’s stock transfer agent for the Non-Employee Director (with reduction in the number of shares necessary to cover any applicable employment taxes unless the Non-Employee Director shall elect to pay such amounts in cash pursuant to notices and procedures that the Company has instituted or shall institute) and such vested shares shall no longer be subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement. The Non-Employee Director understands and acknowledges that, except as provided in Paragraph 4 above, in the event the Non-Employee Director’s directorship with the Company and the CBL Management Company, is terminated at any time during the Vesting Period, any non-vested shares of Common Stock making up the Stock Award shall then be cancelled and/or returned to the Company and that the Company shall be entitled to take such action on behalf of the Non-Employee Director in the form of executing such documents or instruments to authorize the cancellation of such shares and/or return of same to the Company

8. No Enlargement of Non-Employee Director Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to confer upon the Non-Employee Director any further rights as a director of the Company or the CBL Management Company.

9. Income Tax Withholding. If the Company is required to withhold Federal, state, local or other taxes with respect to the Non-Employee Director, the Company, in its sole discretion, shall make such provisions and take such steps as it may deem necessary or appropriate for the withholding of all Federal, state, local and other taxes required by law to be withheld with respect to the shares of Common Stock issued pursuant to the Stock Award (as such shares vest or if certain tax elections are made by the Non-Employee Director, i.e., a Section 83(b) election under applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) and any dividends paid on any portion of non-vested shares of Common Stock, including, but not limited to, the following: (i) deducting the amount of any such withholding taxes therefrom or from any other amounts then or thereafter payable to the Non-Employee Director by the Company or the CBL Management Company; (ii) requiring the Non-Employee Director, or the beneficiary or legal representative of the Non-Employee Director, to pay to the Company the amount required to be withheld or to execute such documents as the Company deems necessary or desirable to enable the Company to satisfy its withholding obligations; and/or (iii) withholding from the shares of Common Stock otherwise payable and/or deliverable one or more of such shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date the withholding tax obligation arises, less than or equal to the amount of the total withholding tax obligation.

10. Restricted Stock. The Stock Award granted hereunder is intended to be a grant of restricted property to the Non-Employee Director that is subject to a “substantial risk of forfeiture” as defined in Section 83 of the Code.

11. Binding Effect. This Agreement shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators and successors of the parties hereto.

12. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without reference to the principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

The Non-Employee Director understands and acknowledges that the shares of Common Stock issued to the Non-Employee Director pursuant to the Stock Award may be subject to adjustment or substitution, as determined by the Company or the Company’s Compensation Committee, as to the number, price or kind of a share of stock or other consideration subject to such awards or as otherwise determined by the Company or the Company’s Compensation Committee to be equitable in the event of changes in the outstanding stock or in the capital structure of the Company by reason of stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits, recapitalizations, reorganizations, mergers, consolidations, combinations, exchanges, or other relevant changes in capitalization occurring after the date of grant of any such award.

15. Section 83(b) Election. By execution of this Agreement, the Non-Employee Director is acknowledging that he/she understands that he/she may make a Section 83(b) Election with respect to the Stock Award pursuant to applicable provisions of the Code but that such election must be made on or before the date that is thirty (30) days following the Receipt Date set forth above.

Exhibit 10.4.2

Tier I Legacy Retiree Program

Tier I Legacy Retiree Program. Tier I Legacy Retirees are CBL employees who (i) retire after March 1, 2008, (ii) who have been employed by CBL and/or its affiliates or predecessors for a total of 30 or more years of service to their date of retirement, (iii) who are participating in the CBL group medical insurance plan on the date of such retirement, and (iv) who are not eligible for health benefit coverage pursuant to any other group health insurance plan or Medicare.

The participation of Tier I Legacy Retirees (and their spouses who are covered on the date of the retirement of the Tier I Legacy Retiree) in the CBL group medical insurance plan would continue as follows:

■ For the period of 24 months after severance of employment by retirement of the Tier I Legacy Retiree at no cost to the Tier I Legacy Retiree;

■ For the period commencing after the 24-month period referenced above and continuing until the earlier of (i) Tier I Legacy Retiree (and spouse if applicable) reaches Medicare age or (ii) the Tier I Legacy Retiree (and spouse if applicable) becomes eligible for another group medical coverage, the Tier I Legacy Retiree (and spouse if applicable) would be entitled to continue participation in the CBL group medical insurance plan (as such may be amended, revised or modified from time to time and as available to then- active employees of CBL) but with the Tier I Legacy Retiree having to pay the full cost for such coverage (i.e., equivalent to the then-prevailing COBRA rate);

■ Upon reaching the age of Medicare eligibility or becoming eligible for other group medical coverage, the Tier I Legacy Retiree (and spouse if applicable), would cease to be eligible for the CBL group medical insurance plan;

■ Any tax obligations imposed on the Tier I Legacy Retiree as a result of benefits received under the Tier I Legacy Retiree Program shall be the sole responsibility of the Tier I Legacy Retiree (and spouse if applicable);

■ This Tier I Legacy Retiree benefit shall be subject to rules, regulations, policies and procedures that CBL may adopt from time to time and CBL may elect to discontinue the Tier I Legacy Retiree benefit on a prospective basis on each annual renewal of the overall CBL group health insurance plan; and

■ Any period of time during which a CBL employee (and spouse if applicable) continues to participate in the CBL group medical insurance plan as a Tier I Legacy Retiree (and spouse if applicable) after the employee's severance of employment will count toward the maximum coverage period for COBRA continuation.

[2] Sales taxes are excluded from revenues.

[3] Due to a net loss for the Successor year ended December 31, 2022, the computation of diluted EPS does not include contingently issuable shares due to their anti-dilutive nature. Had the Successor reported net income for the year ended December 31, 2022, the denominator for diluted EPS would have been 30,206,521, including 160,098 contingently issuable shares related to PSUs and unvested restricted stock awards. There were no potential dilutive common shares and there were no anti-dilutive shares for the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. There were no potential dilutive common shares and there were no anti-dilutive shares for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and for the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2020.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Organization

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. ("CBL"), a Delaware corporation, is a self-managed, self-administered, fully-integrated real estate investment trust ("REIT") that is engaged in the ownership, development, acquisition, leasing, management and operation of regional shopping malls, lifestyle centers, open-air centers, outlet centers, office buildings and other properties, including single-tenant and multi-tenant outparcels. Its properties are located in 22 states but are primarily in the southeastern and midwestern United States.

CBL conducts substantially all its business through CBL & Associates Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), which is a variable interest entity ("VIE"). The Operating Partnership consolidates the financial statements of all entities in which it has a controlling financial interest or where it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. As of December 31, 2022, the Operating Partnership owned interests in the following properties:

	Malls (1)		Outlet Centers (1)		Lifestyle Centers (1)		Open-Air Centers (2)		Other (2)(3)		Total
Consolidated Properties		41		2		4		21		4		72
Unconsolidated Properties (4)		6		3		1		8		1		19
Total		47		5		5		29		5		91

(1)The Company has aggregated Malls, Outlet Centers and Lifestyle Centers into one reportable segment (the “Malls”) because they have similar economic characteristics and they provide similar products and services to similar types of, and in many cases, the same tenants.

Fresh Start Accounting and Reorganizations

As discussed in Note 19, upon the Company’s emergence from the voluntary petitions filed (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) under chapter 11 of title 11 (“Chapter 11”) of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas (the “Bankruptcy Court”), the Company adopted fresh start accounting, which resulted in a new basis of accounting and the Company becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes. As a result of the application of fresh start accounting and the effects of the implementation of the Plan (defined below), the consolidated financial statements after November 1, 2021 (the "Effective Date"), are not comparable with the consolidated financial statements on or before that date. The lack of comparability is emphasized by the use of a “black line” to separate the Predecessor (defined below) and Successor (defined below) periods in the consolidated financial statements and footnote tables. References to “Successor” or “Successor Company” relate to the financial position and results of operations of the Company after the Effective Date. References to "Predecessor" or "Predecessor Company" refer to the financial position and results of operations of the Company on or before the Effective Date. See Note 19 for additional information.

During the Predecessor period, the Company applied Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 852 - Reorganizations (“ASC 852”) in preparing the consolidated financial statements. ASC 852 requires the financial statements, for periods subsequent to the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases, to distinguish transactions and events that are directly associated with the reorganization from the ongoing operations of the business. In addition, the Company classified all expenses, gains and losses that were incurred as a result of the Chapter 11 proceedings since filing as “Reorganization items, net” in the consolidated statements of operations.

Reclassifications

The Successor Company reclassified mortgage and other notes receivable of $384 into other receivables at December 31, 2021 to conform with the current period presentation.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Successor Company and the Predecessor Company, as well as entities in which the Successor Company or the Predecessor Company has a controlling financial interest or entities where the Successor Company or the Predecessor Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE. For entities in which the Successor Company or the Predecessor Company has less than a controlling financial interest or entities where the Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the entities are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Successor Company's or the Predecessor Company’s share of the net earnings or losses of these entities is included in consolidated net income (loss). The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted
Description	Financial Statement Effect and Other Information
Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2020-04 and ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform	On March 12, 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or other reference rates expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. This ASU was effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. On December 21, 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06 to defer the sunset date of ASC 848 until December 31, 2024. The Successor Company has not adopted any of the optional expedients or exceptions as of December 31, 2022. The Successor Company does not anticipate needing to adopt this guidance, but will continue to monitor its contracts and evaluate the possible adoption of any such expedients or exceptions during the effective period to determine the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Real Estate Assets

The Company capitalizes predevelopment project costs paid to third parties. All previously capitalized predevelopment costs are expensed when it is no longer probable that the project will be completed. Once development of a project commences, all direct costs incurred to construct the project, including interest and real estate taxes, are capitalized. Additionally, certain general and administrative expenses are allocated to the projects and capitalized based on the amount of time applicable personnel work on the development project. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Major replacements and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

All real estate assets acquired prior to and after the Effective Date have been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and accordingly, the results of operations are included in the consolidated statements of operations from the respective dates of acquisition. The Company allocates the purchase price to (i) tangible assets, consisting of land, buildings and improvements, as if vacant, and tenant improvements, and (ii) identifiable intangible assets and liabilities, generally consisting of above-market leases, in-place leases and tenant relationships, which are included in intangible lease assets and other assets, and below-market leases, which are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company uses estimates of fair value based on estimated cash flows, using appropriate discount rates, and other valuation techniques to allocate the purchase price to the acquired tangible and intangible assets. Liabilities assumed generally consist of mortgage debt on the real estate assets acquired. Assumed debt is recorded at its fair value based on estimated market interest rates at the date of acquisition. The Successor Company expects its future acquisitions will be accounted for as acquisitions of assets in which related transaction costs will be capitalized.

Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over estimated lives of 30 years for buildings, 10 to 20 years for certain improvements and 5 to 10 years for equipment and fixtures. Tenant improvements are capitalized and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease. Lease-related intangibles from acquisitions of real estate assets are generally amortized over the remaining terms of the related leases. The amortization of above- and below-market leases is recorded as an adjustment to rental revenue, while the amortization of all other lease-related intangibles is recorded as amortization expense. Any difference between the face value of the debt assumed and its fair value is amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the debt using the effective interest method.

The Successor Company’s intangibles and their balance sheet classifications as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, are summarized as follows:

	December 31, 2022					December 31, 2021
	Cost		Accumulated Amortization			Cost		Accumulated Amortization
Above-market leases	$	241,048	$	(69,783	)	$	244,575	$	(10,289	)
In-place leases		396,515		(149,018	)		412,683		(27,979	)
Intangible lease assets and other assets:
Tenant relationships		2,523		(12	)		86		—
Below-market leases		153,273		(42,657	)		158,300		(6,429	)

These intangibles are related to specific tenant leases. Should a termination occur earlier than the date indicated in the lease, the related unamortized intangible assets or liabilities, if any, related to the lease are recorded as expense or income, as applicable. The total net amortization expense of the above intangibles for the Successor Company for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $152,174. The total net amortization expense of the above intangibles for the Successor Company for the period from November 1, 2021 through December 21, 2021 was $32,164. The total net amortization expense of the above intangibles for the Predecessor Company for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 was $1,195. The total net amortization expense of the above intangibles for the Predecessor Company for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $1,460. The estimated total net amortization expense for the next five succeeding years is $104,015 in 2023, $69,814 in 2024, $46,481 in 2025, $29,913 in 2026 and $19,098 in 2027.

The Successor Company capitalized interest expense of $618 for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Successor Company capitalized interest expense of $216 during the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. The Predecessor Company did not capitalize interest expense during the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. Total interest expense capitalized during the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2020 was $1,640.

Accounts Receivable

Receivables include amounts billed and currently due from tenants pursuant to lease agreements and receivables attributable to straight-line rents associated with those lease agreements. Individual leases where the collection of rents is in dispute are assessed for collectability based on management’s best estimate of collection considering the anticipated outcome of the dispute. Individual leases that are not in dispute are assessed for collectability and upon the determination that the collection of rents over the remaining lease term is not probable, accounts receivable is reduced as an adjustment to rental revenues. Revenue from leases where collection is deemed to be less than probable is recorded on a cash basis until collectability is determined to be probable. Further, management assesses whether operating lease receivables, at a portfolio level, are appropriately valued based upon an analysis of balances outstanding, historical collection levels and current economic trends. An allowance for the uncollectable portion of the portfolio is recorded as an adjustment to rental revenues.

Management’s collection assessment took into consideration the type of retailer, billing disputes, lease negotiation status and executed deferral or abatement agreements, as well as recent rent collection experience and tenant bankruptcies based on the best information available to management at the time of evaluation.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, there was a reversal of $4,463 related to uncollectable revenues, which includes the write-off of $102 for straight line rent receivables. For the period November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, the Successor Company recorded $1,008 associated with uncollectable revenues, which includes $1,717 for straight line rent receivables. For the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 the Predecessor Company recorded $5,692 associated with uncollectable revenues, which includes $2,806 for straight line rent receivables. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Predecessor Company recorded $48,240 associated with uncollectable revenues, which includes $5,603 for straight line rent receivables.

Carrying Value of Long-Lived Assets

The Company monitors events or changes in circumstances that could indicate the carrying value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. The Company uses significant judgement in assessing events or circumstances which might indicate impairment, including but not limited to, changes in management’s intent to hold a long-lived asset over its previously estimated useful life. Changes in management’s intent to hold a long-lived asset have a significant impact on the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of a long-lived asset and whether a potential impairment loss shall be measured. When indicators of potential impairment are present that suggest that the carrying amounts of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the Company assesses the recoverability of the asset by determining whether the asset’s carrying value will be recovered through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected from the Company’s use and its eventual disposition. In the event that such undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, the Company adjusts the carrying value of the long-lived asset to its estimated fair value and recognizes an impairment loss. The estimated fair value is calculated based on the following information, in order of preference, depending upon availability: (Level 1) recently quoted market prices, (Level 2) market prices for comparable properties, or (Level 3) the present value of future cash flows, including estimated salvage value. Certain of the Company’s long-lived assets may be carried at more than an amount that could be realized in a current disposition transaction. The Company estimates future operating cash flows, the terminal capitalization rate and the discount rate, among other factors. As these assumptions are subject to economic and market uncertainties, they are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter the assumptions used or management’s estimates of future possible outcomes. Therefore, the future cash flows estimated in the Company’s impairment analyses may not be achieved. See Note 15 for information related to the impairment of long-lived assets in 2022, 2021 and 2020.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less as cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash of $97,231 and $66,644 was included in intangible lease assets and other assets at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, restricted cash was related to cash held in escrow accounts for insurance, real estate taxes, capital expenditures and tenant allowances as required by the terms of certain mortgage notes payable, as well as amounts related to cash management agreements with the Company’s lenders that are designated for debt service and operating expense obligations. As of December 31, 2022, restricted cash was also related to properties that secure the corporate term loan and the open-air centers and outparcels loan of which we may receive a portion via distributions semiannually and quarterly in accordance with the provisions of the term loan and the open-air centers and outparcels loan, respectively.

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

The Company evaluates its joint venture arrangements to determine whether they should be recorded on a consolidated basis. The percentage of ownership interest in the joint venture, an evaluation of control and whether a VIE exists are all considered in the Company’s consolidation assessment.

Initial investments in joint ventures that are in economic substance a capital contribution to the joint venture are recorded in an amount equal to the cash contributed by the Company and the fair value of any real estate contributed. Initial investments in joint ventures that are in economic substance the sale of a portion of the Company’s interest in the real estate are accounted for as a contribution of real estate recorded in an amount equal to the fair value of the ownership interest retained and as a sale of real estate with profit recognized to the extent of the other joint venture partners’ interests in the joint venture. Profit recognition assumes the Company has no commitment to reinvest with respect to the percentage of the real estate sold and the accounting requirements of the full accrual method are met.

The Company accounts for its investment in joint ventures where it owns a noncontrolling interest or where it is not the primary beneficiary of a VIE using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the Company’s cost of investment is adjusted for additional contributions to and distributions from the unconsolidated affiliate, as well as its share of equity in the earnings of the unconsolidated affiliate. Generally, distributions of cash flows from operations and capital events are first made to partners to pay cumulative unpaid preferences on unreturned capital balances and then to the partners in accordance with the terms of the joint venture agreements.

On a periodic basis, the Company assesses whether there are any indicators that the fair value of the Company's investments in unconsolidated affiliates may be impaired. An investment is impaired only if the Company’s estimate of the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the estimated fair value of the investment. The Company's estimates of fair value for each investment are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, but not limited to, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and operating costs. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter the Company’s assumptions, the fair values estimated in the impairment analyses may not be realized. No impairment charges were recorded for the Successor year ended December 31, 2022 and the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. No impairment charges were recorded for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2020.

Deferred Financing Costs

During 2020, as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, unamortized financing costs of $16,779 related to the Predecessor Company's secured credit facility and senior unsecured notes were charged to expense and were recorded as “Reorganization items, net” within the Predecessor Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Unamortized financing costs of $17,101 and $1,568 for the Successor Company were included in mortgage and other indebtedness, net, at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Deferred financing costs include fees and costs incurred to obtain financing and are amortized on a straight-line basis to interest expense over the terms of the related indebtedness. Amortization expense related to deferred financing costs for the Successor Company for the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021 was $2,744 and $51, respectively. Amortization expense related to deferred financing costs for the Predecessor Company for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 was $814 and $5,476, respectively. Accumulated amortization of deferred financing costs was $2,733 and $19 for the Successor Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. See Note 19 for information regarding unamortized financing costs that were charged to expense in connection with Fresh Start Accounting.

Revenue Recognition

See Note 3 and Note 4 for a description of the Company's revenue streams.

Gain on Sales of Real Estate Assets

Gains on the sale of real estate assets, like all non-lease related revenue, are subject to a five-step model requiring that the Company identify the contract with the customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and recognize revenue upon satisfaction of the performance obligations. In circumstances where the Company contracts to sell a property with material post-sale involvement, such involvement must be accounted for as a separate performance obligation in the contract and a portion of the sales price allocated to each performance obligation. When the post-sale involvement performance obligation is satisfied, the portion of the sales price allocated to it will be recognized as gain on sale of real estate assets. Property dispositions with no continuing involvement will continue to be recognized upon closing of the sale.

Income Taxes

The Company is qualified as a REIT under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. To maintain qualification as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to shareholders and meet certain other requirements.

As a REIT, the Company is generally not liable for federal corporate income taxes. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to federal and state income taxes on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. Even if the Company maintains its qualification as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor Company had state tax expense of $1,631. The Successor Company had state tax expense of $142 for the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. State tax expense for the Predecessor Company was $2,992 during the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. State tax expense for the Predecessor Company was $2,882 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The Company has also elected taxable REIT subsidiary status for some of its subsidiaries. This enables the Company to receive income and provide services that would otherwise be impermissible for REITs. For these entities, deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is provided if the Company believes all or some portion of the deferred tax asset may not be realized. An increase or decrease in the valuation allowance that results from the change in circumstances that causes a change in the Company’s judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset is included in income or expense, as applicable.

The Successor and Predecessor Company recorded an income tax (provision) benefit as follows:

	Successor						Predecessor
	Year Ended December 31,			For the Period November 1, through December 31,			For the Period January 1, through October 31,			Year Ended December 31,
	2022			2021			2021			2020
Current tax provision	$	(1,951	)	$	(4,968	)	$	(1,078	)	$	(2,278	)
Deferred tax (provision) benefit		(1,128	)		10,853			—			(14,558	)
Income tax (provision) benefit	$	(3,079	)	$	5,885		$	(1,078	)	$	(16,836	)

The Successor Company had a net deferred tax asset of $9,726 and $10,853 at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2022 and 2021 is included in intangible lease assets and other assets. As of December 31, 2022, tax years that generally remain subject to examination by the Company’s major tax jurisdictions include 2022, 2021, 2020 and 2019.

The Company reports any income tax penalties attributable to its properties as property operating expenses and any corporate-related income tax penalties as general and administrative expenses in its consolidated statements of operations. In addition, any interest incurred on tax assessments is reported as interest expense. The Successor Company incurred nominal interest and penalty amounts during the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. The Predecessor Company incurred nominal interest and penalty amounts during the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company’s tenants include national, regional and local retailers. Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of tenant receivables. The Company generally does not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk, but it monitors the credit standing of tenants. The Company derives a substantial portion of its rental income from various national and regional retail companies; however, no single tenant collectively accounted for more than 5.0% of the Successor Company’s revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Earnings per Share

Earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated under the two-class method. Under the two-class method, all earnings (distributed and undistributed) are allocated to common stock and participating securities. The Company grants restricted stock awards to certain employees under its share-based compensation program, which entitle recipients to receive nonforfeitable dividends during the vesting period on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of common stock. These unvested restricted stock awards meet the definition of participating securities based on their respective rights to receive nonforfeitable dividends.

Diluted EPS incorporates the potential impact of contingently issuable shares. Diluted EPS is calculated under both the two-class and treasury stock methods, and the more dilutive amount is reported. Performance stock units ("PSUs") and unvested restricted stock awards are contingently issuable common shares and are included in diluted EPS if the effect is dilutive. See Note 16 for a description of the long-term incentive program that these units relate to.

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted EPS (in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Successor						Predecessor
	Year Ended December 31,			Period from November 1, through December 31,			Period from January 1, through October 31,			Year Ended December 31,
	2022			2021			2021			2020
Basic earnings per share
Net loss attributable to the Company	$	(93,482	)	$	(151,545	)	$	(470,627	)	$	(295,084	)
Less: Preferred dividends undeclared		—			—			—			(37,410	)
Less: Dividends allocable to unvested restricted stock		(2,537	)		—			—			—
Net loss attributable to common shareholders	$	(96,019	)	$	(151,545	)	$	(470,627	)	$	(332,494	)
Weighted-average basic shares outstanding		30,046			20,208			196,591			190,277
Net loss per share attributable to common shareholders	$	(3.20	)	$	(7.50	)	$	(2.39	)	$	(1.75	)
Diluted earnings per share (1)
Net loss attributable to common shareholders	$	(96,019	)	$	(151,545	)	$	(470,627	)	$	(332,494	)
Weighted-average basic shares outstanding		30,046			20,208			196,591			190,277
Net loss per share attributable to common shareholders	$	(3.20	)	$	(7.50	)	$	(2.39	)	$	(1.75	)

(1)Due to a net loss for the Successor year ended December 31, 2022, the computation of diluted EPS does not include contingently issuable shares due to their anti-dilutive nature. Had the Successor reported net income for the year ended December 31, 2022, the denominator for diluted EPS would have been 30,206,521, including 160,098 contingently issuable shares related to PSUs and unvested restricted stock awards. There were no potential dilutive common shares and there were no anti-dilutive shares for the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. There were no potential dilutive common shares and there were no anti-dilutive shares for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and for the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2020.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Operating expense reimbursements

Under operating and other agreements with third parties, which own anchor or outparcel buildings at the Company's properties and pay no rent, the Company receives reimbursements for certain operating expenses such as ring road and parking area maintenance, landscaping and other fees. These arrangements are primarily either set at a fixed rate with rate increases typically every five years or are on a variable (pro rata) basis, typically as a percentage of costs allocated based on square footage or sales. The majority of these contracts have an initial term and one or more extension options, which cumulatively approximate 50 or more years as historically the initial term and any extension options are typically reasonably certain of being executed by the third party. The standalone selling price of each performance obligation is determined based on the terms of the contract, which typically assigns a price to each performance obligation that directly relates to the value the customer receives for the services being provided. Revenue is recognized as services are transferred to the customer. Variable consideration is based on historical experience and is generally recognized over time using the cost-to-cost method of measurement because it most accurately depicts the Company's performance in satisfying the performance obligation. The cumulative catch-up method is used to recognize any adjustments in variable consideration estimates. Under this method, any adjustment is recognized in the period it is identified.

Management, development and leasing fees

The Company earns revenue from contracts with third parties and unconsolidated affiliates for property management, leasing, development and other services. These contracts are accounted for on a month-to-month basis if the agreement does not contain substantive penalties for termination. The majority of the Company's contracts with customers are accounted for on a month-to-month basis. The standalone selling price of each performance obligation is determined based on the terms of the contract, which typically assigns a price to each performance obligation that directly relates to the value the customer receives for the services being provided. These contracts generally are for the following:

•Management fees - Management fees are charged as a percentage of revenues (as defined in the contract) and recognized as revenue over time as services are provided.

•Leasing fees - Leasing fees are charged for newly executed leases and lease renewals and are recognized as revenue upon lease execution, when the performance obligation is completed. In cases for which the agreement specifies 50% of the leasing commission will be paid upon lease execution with the remainder paid when the tenant opens, the Company estimates the amount of variable consideration it expects to receive by evaluating the likelihood of tenant openings using the most likely amount method and records the amount as an unbilled receivable (contract asset).

•Development fees - Development fees may be either set as a fixed rate in a separate agreement or be a variable rate based on a percentage of project costs. Variable consideration related to development fees is generally recognized over time using the cost-to-cost method of measurement because it most accurately depicts the Company's performance in satisfying the performance obligation. Contract estimates are based on various assumptions including the cost and availability of materials, anticipated performance and the complexity of the work to be performed. The cumulative catch-up method is used to recognize any adjustments in variable consideration estimates. Under this method, any adjustment is recognized in the period it is identified.

Development and leasing fees received from an unconsolidated affiliate are recognized as revenue only to the extent of the third-party partner’s ownership interest. The Company's share of such fees are recorded as a reduction to the Company’s investment in the unconsolidated affiliate.

Marketing revenues

The Company earns marketing revenues from advertising and sponsorship agreements. These fees may be for tangible items in which the Company provides advertising services and creates signs and other promotional materials for the tenant or may be arrangements in which the customer sponsors a play area or event and receives specified brand recognition and other benefits over a set period of time. Revenue related to advertising services is recognized as goods and services are provided to the customer. Sponsorship revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the time period specified in the contract.

Performance obligations

A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to a customer. If the contract does not specify the revenue by performance obligation, the Company allocates the transaction price to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. Such prices are generally determined using prices charged to customers or using the Company’s expected cost plus margin. Revenue is recognized as the Company’s performance obligations are satisfied over time, as services are provided, or at a point in time, such as leasing a space to earn a commission. Open performance obligations are those in which the Company has not fully or has partially provided the applicable good or services to the customer as specified in the contract. If consideration is received in advance of the Company’s performance, including amounts which are refundable, recognition of revenue is deferred until the performance obligation is satisfied or amounts are no longer refundable.

Outstanding Performance Obligations

The Company has outstanding performance obligations related to certain noncancellable contracts with customers for which it will receive fixed operating expense reimbursements for providing certain maintenance and other services as described above. As of December 31, 2022, the Company expects to recognize these amounts as revenue over the following periods:

Performance obligation	Less than 5 years		5-20 years		Over 20 years		Total
Fixed operating expense reimbursements	$	20,872	$	47,180	$	42,875	$	110,927

The Company evaluates its performance obligations each period and makes adjustments to reflect any known additions or cancellations. Performance obligations related to variable consideration, which is based on sales, are constrained.

Rental Revenues

The majority of the Company’s revenues are earned through the lease of space at its properties. All the Company's leases with tenants for the use of space at its properties are classified as operating leases. Rental revenues include minimum rent, percentage rent, other rents and reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes, insurance, common area maintenance ("CAM") and other operating expenses as provided in the lease agreements. The option to extend or terminate the Company’s leases is specific to each underlying tenant lease agreement. Typically, the Company's leases contain penalties for early termination. The Company doesn't have any leases that convey the right for the lessee to purchase the leased asset.

Minimum rental revenue from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the initial terms of the related leases. Certain tenants are required to pay percentage rent if their sales volumes exceed thresholds specified in their lease agreements. Percentage rent is recognized as revenue when the thresholds are achieved and the amounts become determinable.

The Company receives reimbursements from tenants for real estate taxes, insurance, CAM and other recoverable operating expenses as provided in the lease agreements. Any tenant reimbursements that require fixed payments are recognized on a straight-line basis over the initial terms of the related leases, whereas any variable payments are recognized when earned in accordance with the tenant lease agreements. Tenant reimbursements related to certain capital expenditures are billed to tenants over periods of 5 to 15 years.

The components of rental revenues are as follows:

	Successor				Predecessor
	Year Ended December 31,		For the Period November 1, through December 31,		For the Period January 1, through October 31,		Year Ended December 31,
	2022		2021		2021		2020

Variable Interest Entities

The Operating Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries are deemed to have the characteristics of a VIE primarily because the limited partners of these entities do not collectively possess substantive kick-out or participating rights.

Generally, a VIE is a legal entity in which the equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or the equity investors lack sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. A limited partnership is considered a VIE when the majority of the limited partners unrelated to the general partner possess neither the right to remove the general partner without cause, nor proportionate rights to participate in the decisions that most significantly affect the financial results of the partnership. The Company consolidates the Operating Partnership, which is a VIE, for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company, through the Operating Partnership, consolidates all VIEs for which it is the primary beneficiary. In determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company considers qualitative and quantitative factors, including, but not limited to: which activities most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and which party controls such activities; the amount and characteristics of the Company's investment; the obligation or likelihood for the Company or other investors to provide financial support; and the similarity with and significance to the Company's business activities and the business activities of the other investors.

Consolidated VIEs

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had investments in 11 consolidated VIEs with ownership interests ranging from 50% to 92%.

(2)In conjunction with fresh start accounting, the Company estimated the fair value of its mortgage notes with the assistance of a third-party valuation advisor. This resulted in recognizing a debt discount on the Effective Date. The debt discount is accreted over the term of the respective debt using the effective interest method. The remaining debt discounts at December 31, 2022 will be accreted over a weighted average period of 2.9 years.

Non-recourse loans on operating properties, the open-air centers and outparcels loan and the secured term loan include loans that are secured by properties owned by the Company that have a carrying value of $1,632,708 at December 31, 2022.

Upon satisfaction of certain conditions, the maturity date will automatically extend to November 1, 2026 and upon further satisfaction of certain conditions the maturity date will automatically extend to November 1, 2027.

Shareholders' Equity

NOTE 9. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Common Stock and Common Units

The Successor Company's authorized common stock consists of 200,000,000 shares at $0.001 par value per share. The Successor Company had 31,780,109 and 20,774,716 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

On September 8, 2022, the Company's board of directors adopted a short-term rights plan (the “Rights Plan”) that will expire on September 8, 2023, or sooner under certain circumstances. Pursuant to the Rights Plan, the board of directors authorized a dividend of one share purchase right (a “Right”) for each outstanding share of the Company's common stock. If a person or group of affiliated or associated persons acquires beneficial ownership of 10.0% or more of the Company's outstanding common shares, subject to certain exceptions (including exceptions for existing holders who do not increase their holdings as provided in the Rights Plan), each Right would effectively entitle its holder (other than the acquiring person or group of affiliated or associated persons) to purchase additional common shares at a substantial discount to the public market price. In addition, under certain circumstances, the Company may exchange the Rights (other than Rights beneficially owned by the acquiring person or group of affiliated or associated persons), in whole or in part, for common shares on a one-for-one basis, or the Company may redeem the Rights for cash at a price of $0.001 per Right.

On the Effective Date, by operation of the Debtors’ Third Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. and its Affiliated Debtors (With Technical Modifications) (as modified at Docket No. 1521, the “Plan”), all agreements, instruments, and other documents evidencing, relating to or connected with any equity interests of the Company, including (1) CBL’s old common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and CBL’s old preferred stock and related depositary shares and (2) the Operating Partnership’s old limited partnership common interests and the old limited partnership preferred interests related to CBL’s old preferred stock, in each case issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date, and any rights of any holder in respect thereof, were deemed cancelled, discharged and of no force or effect.

On the Effective Date, (1) CBL issued (i) 1,089,717 shares of new common stock to (a) existing holders of the old common stock and (b) certain of the existing holders of the old limited partnership common interests that have elected to receive shares of new common stock in exchange for old limited partnership common interests, (ii) 1,100,000 shares of new common stock to existing holders of the old preferred stock, (iii) 15,685,714 shares of new common stock to existing holders of the $450,000 of senior unsecured notes issued by the Operating Partnership in November 2013 that bear interest at 5.25% and mature on December 1, 2023 (the “2023 Notes”), the $300,000 of senior unsecured notes issued by the Operating Partnership in October 2014 that bear interest at 4.60% and mature on October 15, 2024 (the “2024 Notes”) and the $625,000 of senior unsecured notes issued by the Operating Partnership in December 2016 and September 2017 that bear interest at 5.95% and mature on December 15, 2026 (the “2026 Notes” and, collectively with the 2023 Notes and 2024 Notes, the "Notes") and other general unsecured claims, and (iv) 2,114,286 shares of new common stock to existing holders of consenting crossholder claims and (2) the Operating Partnership cancelled all of its old limited partnership common interests and issued 200,000 new common units of general partnership interests, 19,789,717 new common units of limited partnership interest to subsidiaries of CBL and 10,283 new common units of limited partner interests to certain of the existing holders of old limited partnership common interests that have elected to remain limited partners in the Operating Partnership. On the Effective Date, CBL had an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of new common stock issued and outstanding (on a fully diluted basis after giving effect to any future election to exchange all new limited partnership interests for new common stock). On November 2, 2021, the newly issued common stock of the reorganized company commenced trading on the NYSE under the symbol CBL.

Partners in the Operating Partnership hold their ownership through common units of limited partnership interest, hereinafter referred to as "common units." A common unit and a share of CBL's common stock have essentially the same economic characteristics, as they effectively participate equally in the net income and distributions of the Operating Partnership. For each share of common stock issued by CBL, the Operating Partnership has issued a corresponding number of common units to CBL in exchange for the proceeds from the stock issuance.

Each limited partner in the Operating Partnership has the right to exchange all or a portion of its common units for shares of CBL's common stock, or at the Company's election, their cash equivalent. When an exchange for common stock occurs, the Company assumes the limited partner's common units in the Operating Partnership. The number of shares of common stock received by a limited partner of the Operating Partnership upon exercise of its exchange rights will be equal, on a one-for-one basis, to the number of common units exchanged by the limited partner. If the Company elects to pay cash, the amount of cash paid by the Operating Partnership to redeem the limited partner's common units will be based on the five-day trailing average of the trading price, at the time of exchange, of the shares of common stock that would otherwise have been received by the limited partner in the exchange. Neither the common units nor the shares of CBL's common stock are subject to any right of mandatory redemption.

Dividends

In June 2022, the board of directors established a regular quarterly dividend. The Company paid common stock dividends of $0.25 per share for each of the second, third and fourth quarters of 2022. The Successor Company did not pay any dividends to holders of its common shares payable for the period November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. The Predecessor Company did not pay any dividends to holders of its common shares payable for the period January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020.

In November 2022, the board of directors declared a special dividend of $2.20 per share of common stock, payable all in cash. The special dividend was paid on January 18, 2023, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 12, 2022.

The decision to declare and pay dividends on any outstanding shares of our common stock, as well as the timing, amount and composition of any such future dividends, will be at the sole discretion of the Company's board of directors and will depend on the Company's earnings, taxable income, cash flows, liquidity, financial condition, capital requirements, contractual prohibitions or other limitations under the Company's then-current indebtedness, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, Delaware law and such other factors as the Company's board of directors deems relevant. Any dividends payable will be determined by the Company's board of directors based upon the circumstances at the time of declaration. The Company's actual results of operations will be affected by a number of factors, including the revenues received from its properties, its operating expenses, interest expense, unanticipated capital expenditures and the ability of its anchors and tenants at its properties to meet their obligations for payment of rents and tenant reimbursements.

For purposes of determining net income (loss) attributable to common shareholders, the Predecessor Company disclosed the cumulation of undeclared dividends on its depositary shares each representing a 1/10th fractional share of the Company’s 7.375% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series D Preferred Stock”) and the depositary shares each representing a 1/10th fractional share of the Company’s 6.625% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (“Series E Preferred Stock”). The undeclared dividends on the Predecessor Company’s Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock ceased to cumulate as of November 1, 2020 as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases.

The allocations of dividends declared and paid for income tax purposes for 2022 are as follows (income tax allocations are not applicable in 2021 or 2020 due to the Company not paying any dividends in those years):

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests And Noncontrolling Interests [Abstract]

Noncontrolling Interests

NOTE 10. NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS

Noncontrolling Interests of the Company

Third parties held rights to convert noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership to 10,283 shares of common stock at December 31, 2022 and 2021.

The assets and liabilities allocated to the Operating Partnership’s noncontrolling interests are based on their ownership percentages of the Operating Partnership at December 31, 2022 and 2021. The ownership percentages are determined by dividing the number of common units held by each of the noncontrolling interests at December 31, 2022 and 2021 by the total common units outstanding at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The noncontrolling interest ownership percentage in assets and liabilities of the Successor Operating Partnership was 0.03% and 0.01% at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Income is allocated to the Operating Partnership’s noncontrolling interests based on their weighted-average ownership during the year. The ownership percentages are determined by dividing the weighted-average number of common units held by each of the noncontrolling interests by the total weighted-average number of common units outstanding during the year.

A change in the number of shares of common stock or common units changes the percentage ownership of all partners of the Operating Partnership. A common unit is considered to be equivalent to a share of common stock since it generally is exchangeable for shares of the Company’s common stock or, at the Company’s election, their cash equivalent. As a result, an allocation is made between shareholders’ equity and noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership in the Successor Company's accompanying balance sheets to reflect the change in ownership of the Operating Partnership’s underlying equity when there is a change in the number of shares and/or common units outstanding. During the period January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, the Predecessor Company allocated $865 and $6,002, respectively, from shareholders' equity to noncontrolling interest. During the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020, the Predecessor Company allocated $6 and $302, respectively, from shareholders' equity to redeemable noncontrolling interest. There is no redeemable noncontrolling interest related to the Successor Company.

The total noncontrolling interest in the Successor Operating Partnership was $121 and $282 at December 31, 2022, and 2021 respectively.

Noncontrolling Interests in Other Consolidated Subsidiaries

The Successor Company had 11 and 12 other consolidated subsidiaries at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, that had noncontrolling interests held by third parties and for which the related partnership agreements either do not include redemption provisions or are subject to redemption provisions that do not require classification outside of permanent equity. The total noncontrolling interests in other consolidated subsidiaries of the Successor Company was $(3,533) and $4,618 at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

The assets and liabilities allocated to noncontrolling interests in other consolidated subsidiaries of the Successor Company are based on the third parties’ ownership percentages in each subsidiary at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Income is allocated to noncontrolling interests in other consolidated subsidiaries based on the third parties’ weighted-average ownership in each subsidiary during the year.

Variable Interest Entities (VIE)

The Operating Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries are deemed to have the characteristics of a VIE primarily because the limited partners of these entities do not collectively possess substantive kick-out or participating rights.

Generally, a VIE is a legal entity in which the equity investors do not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or the equity investors lack sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. A limited partnership is considered a VIE when the majority of the limited partners unrelated to the general partner possess neither the right to remove the general partner without cause, nor proportionate rights to participate in the decisions that most significantly affect the financial results of the partnership. The Company consolidates the Operating Partnership, which is a VIE, for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The Company, through the Operating Partnership, consolidates all VIEs for which it is the primary beneficiary. In determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the Company considers qualitative and quantitative factors, including, but not limited to: which activities most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance and which party controls such activities; the amount and characteristics of the Company's investment; the obligation or likelihood for the Company or other investors to provide financial support; and the similarity with and significance to the Company's business activities and the business activities of the other investors.

The table below lists the Successor Company's consolidated VIEs as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, which do not reflect the elimination of any internal debt a consolidated VIE has with the Operating Partnership:

Segment Information

NOTE 11. SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company measures performance and allocates resources according to property type, which is determined based on certain criteria such as type of tenants, capital requirements, economic risks, leasing terms, and short- and long-term returns on capital. Rental income and tenant reimbursements from tenant leases provide the majority of revenues from all segments. The Company has aggregated malls, lifestyle centers and outlet centers into one reportable segment ("Malls") because they have similar economic characteristics and the Company provides similar products and services to similar types of, and in many cases, the same, tenants. The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

CONTINGENCIES

NOTE 14. CONTINGENCIES

Securities Litigation

The Company and certain of its officers and directors were named as defendants in three putative securities class action lawsuits (collectively, the “Securities Class Action Litigation”), each filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee, on behalf of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired the Company’s securities during a specified period of time. Those cases were consolidated on July 17, 2019, under the caption In re CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. Securities Litigation, 1:19-cv-00149-JRG-CHS, and a consolidated amended complaint was filed on November 5, 2019, seeking to represent a class of purchasers from July 29, 2014 through March 26, 2019.

The operative complaint filed in the Securities Class Action Litigation alleges violations of the securities laws, including, among other things, that the defendants made certain materially false and misleading statements and omissions regarding the Company’s contingent liabilities, business, operations, and prospects during the period of time specified above. The plaintiffs seek compensatory damages and attorneys’ fees and costs, among other relief, but have not specified the amount of damages sought. On May 3, 2022, the court dismissed the Company from the Securities Class Action Litigation but declined to dismiss the individual defendants. The court also lifted the stay of the proceedings and, on June 9, 2022, entered a scheduling order. Plaintiffs’ motion for class certification, which was opposed, was fully briefed and pending as of December 31, 2022. Following a January 31, 2023 mediation before a private mediator, the parties reached an agreement in principle to resolve the Securities Class Action Litigation, subject to documentation and court approval. The putative settlement is expected to be fully funded by directors and officers liability insurance, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, with no contribution expected from the Company or the individual defendants. By agreeing to resolve the matter in principle, neither the Company nor any of the individual defendants are admitting any liability or wrongdoing, and they have expressly denied both. Rather, defendants entered into the agreement in principle to eliminate the risks, costs, and distractions associated with further litigation of this matter.

The outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty.

On January 12, 2023, a purported shareholder filed a putative class action lawsuit captioned John Haynes v. Charles B. Lebovitz, et al., C.A. No. 2023-0033-NAC, in the Delaware Court of Chancery (the “Delaware Action”), naming the Company and certain directors as defendants. The Delaware Action alleged a claim against the Company for violation of Delaware General Corporation Law § 213(a) due to an improper record date for the 2022 annual meeting, and a claim for breach of fiduciary duty against the director defendants. The Delaware Action sought, among other things, a declaration that the directors breached their fiduciary duties, an equitable accounting, unspecified monetary relief, and attorneys’ fees. Defendants denied that any such relief was warranted, and on February 15, 2023, the Delaware Action was voluntarily dismissed.

The Company is currently involved in certain other litigation that arises in the ordinary course of business, most of which is expected to be covered by liability insurance. Management makes assumptions and estimates concerning the likelihood and amount of any potential loss relating to these matters using the latest information available. The Company records a liability for litigation if an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. If an unfavorable outcome is probable and a reasonable estimate of the loss is a range, the Company accrues the best estimate within the range. If no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, the Company accrues the minimum amount within the range. If an unfavorable outcome is probable but the amount of the loss cannot be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the nature of the litigation and indicates that an estimate of the loss or range of loss cannot be made. If an unfavorable outcome is reasonably possible and the estimated loss is material, the Company discloses the nature and estimate of the possible loss of the litigation. Based on current expectations, such matters, both individually and in the aggregate, are not expected to have a material adverse effect on the liquidity, results of operations, business or financial condition of the Company.

Environmental Contingencies

The Company evaluates potential loss contingencies related to environmental matters using the same criteria described above related to litigation matters. Based on current information, an unfavorable outcome concerning such environmental matters, both individually and in the aggregate, is considered to be reasonably possible. However, the Company believes its maximum potential exposure to loss would not be material to its results of operations or financial condition. The Company has a master insurance policy that provides coverage through 2027 for certain environmental claims up to $40,000 per occurrence and up to $40,000 in the aggregate, subject to deductibles and certain exclusions. At certain locations, individual policies are in place.

Guarantees

The Operating Partnership may guarantee the debt of a joint venture primarily because it allows the joint venture to obtain funding at a lower cost than could be obtained otherwise. This results in a higher return for the joint venture on its investment, and a higher return on the Operating Partnership's investment in the joint venture. The Operating Partnership may receive a fee from the joint venture for providing the guaranty. Additionally, when the Operating Partnership issues a guaranty, the terms of the joint venture agreement typically provide that the Operating Partnership may receive indemnification from the joint venture partner or have the ability to increase its ownership interest. The guarantees expire upon repayment of the debt, unless noted otherwise.

The following table represents the Operating Partnership's guarantees of unconsolidated affiliates' debt as reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2022 and 2021:

	As of December 31, 2022									Obligation recorded to reflect guaranty

(1)Excludes any extension options.

(2)These loans have a one-year extension option at the joint venture’s election.

(3)The guaranty was removed when the Company entered into a new loan in April 2022.

For the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, the Successor Company evaluated each guaranty, listed in the table above, individually by looking at the debt service ratio, cash flow forecasts and the performance of each loan. The result of the analysis was that each loan is current. The Successor Company did not record a credit loss related to the guarantees listed in the table above for the year ended December 31, 2022 and the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021.

For the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020, the Predecessor Company evaluated each guaranty, listed in the table above, individually by looking at the debt service ratio, cash flow forecasts, the performance of each loan and, where applicable, the collateral value in relation to the outstanding amount of the loan. The result of the analysis was that each loan is current, performing and, where applicable, the collateral value was greater than the outstanding amount of the loan. The Predecessor Company did not record a credit loss related to the guarantees listed in the table above for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurements

NOTE 15. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company has categorized its financial assets and financial liabilities that are recorded at fair value into a hierarchy in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, ("ASC 820") based on whether the inputs to valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. The fair value hierarchy contains three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value as follows:

Level 1 - Inputs represent quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities as of the measurement date.

Level 2 - Inputs, other than those included in Level 1, represent observable measurements for similar instruments in active markets, or identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and observable measurements or market data for instruments with substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 - Inputs represent unobservable measurements, supported by little, if any, market activity, and require considerable assumptions that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability. Market valuations must often be determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, pricing models or similar techniques based on the Company’s assumptions and best judgment.

The asset or liability's fair value within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Under ASC 820, fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability in an orderly transaction at the measurement date and under current market conditions. Valuation techniques used maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs and consider assumptions such as inherent risk, transfer restrictions and risk of nonperformance.

The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities are reasonable estimates of their fair values because of the short-term nature of these financial instruments. The estimated fair value of mortgage and other indebtedness was $1,833,992 and $2,059,094 at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The fair value was calculated using Level 2 inputs by discounting future cash flows for mortgage and other indebtedness using estimated market rates at which similar loans would be made currently.

Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis

The Successor Company elected the fair value option in conjunction with the issuance of the Secured Notes because it believed that the fair value option provided the most accurate depiction of the then-current value of the Secured Notes. On June 7, 2022, the Successor Company completed the redemption of all outstanding Secured Notes. See Note 8 for additional information.

The following table sets forth information regarding the Secured Notes for the year ended December 31, 2021:

Debt Instrument	Carrying amount as of December 31, 2021		Change in fair value		Fair value as of December 31, 2021 (1)
Secured Notes	$	395,000	$	395	$	395,395

(1)The fair value was calculated using Level 1 inputs.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor Company has continued to reinvest the cash from maturing U.S. Treasury securities into new U.S. Treasury securities. The Company designated the U.S. Treasury securities as available-for-sale (“AFS”). The below table sets forth information regarding the Successor Company’s AFS securities that were measured at fair value. Subsequent to December 31, 2022, the Company redeemed and purchased additional U.S. Treasury securities. See Note 20 for additional information.

AFS Security	Amortized Cost (1)		Allowance for credit losses (2)		Total unrealized loss			Fair value as of December 31, 2022 (3)
U.S. Treasury securities	$	293,476	$	—	$	(1,054	)	$	292,422

(1)The U.S. Treasury securities have maturities through November 2023.

(2)U.S Treasury securities have a long history with no credit losses. Additionally, the Company notes that U.S Treasury securities are explicitly fully guaranteed by a sovereign entity that can print its own currency and that the sovereign entity’s currency is routinely held by central banks and other major financial institutions, is used in international commerce, and commonly viewed as a reserve currency, all of which qualitatively indicate that historical credit loss information should be minimally affected by current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Therefore, the Successor Company did not record expected credit losses for its U.S Treasury securities for the year ended December 31, 2022.

(3)The fair value was calculated using Level 1 inputs.

The following table sets forth information regarding the Successor Company’s AFS securities that were measured at fair value for the year ended December 31, 2021:

AFS Security	Amortized Cost		Allowance for credit losses (1)		Total unrealized loss			Fair value as of December 31, 2021 (2)
U.S. Treasury securities	$	149,999	$	—	$	(3	)	$	149,996

(1)U.S Treasury securities have a long history with no credit losses. Additionally, the Company notes that U.S Treasury securities are explicitly fully guaranteed by a sovereign entity that can print its own currency and that the sovereign entity’s currency is routinely held by central banks and other major financial institutions, is used in international commerce, and commonly viewed as a reserve currency, all of which qualitatively indicate that historical credit loss information should be minimally affected by current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Therefore, the Successor Company did not record expected credit losses for its U.S Treasury securities for the year ended December 31, 2021.

(2)The fair value was calculated using Level 1 inputs.

Fair Value Measurements on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company measures the fair value of certain long-lived assets on a nonrecurring basis, through quarterly impairment testing or when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The Company’s evaluation of the recoverability of long-lived assets involves the comparison of undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by each property over the Company’s expected remaining holding period to the respective carrying amount. The determination of whether the carrying value is recoverable also requires management to make estimates related to probability weighted scenarios impacting undiscounted cash flow models. The Company considers both quantitative and qualitative factors in its impairment analysis of long-lived assets. Significant quantitative factors include historical and forecasted information for each property such as net operating income, occupancy statistics and sales levels. Significant qualitative factors used include market conditions, age and condition of the property and tenant mix. The quantitative and qualitative factors impact the selection of the terminal capitalization rate which is used in both an undiscounted and discounted cash flow model and the discount rate used in a discounted cash flow model. Due to the significant unobservable estimates and assumptions used in the valuation of long-lived assets that experience impairment, the Company classifies such long-lived assets under Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Level 3 inputs primarily consist of sales and market data, independent valuations and discounted cash flow models. See below for a description of the estimates and assumptions the Company used in its impairment analysis. See Note 2 for additional information describing the Company's impairment review process.

See Note 19 for information regarding the fair value adjustments associated with Fresh Start Accounting.

Long-lived Assets Measured at Fair Value in 2022

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor Company adjusted the negative equity in Greenbrier Mall to zero upon deconsolidation, which represented the estimated fair value of the Successor Company’s investment in that property. See Note 7 for additional information.

During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor Company sold an outparcel at the Pavilion at Port Orange. Gross sales proceeds amounted to $1,660 and the transaction resulted in a loss on sale of $252.

Long-lived Assets Measured at Fair Value in 2021

The below table sets forth information regarding the Predecessor Company’s assets that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and related impairment charges for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. No impairment charges were incurred during the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021.

These factors resulted in a reduction of the expected hold period for the mall and open-air center (excluding the redeveloped anchor parcel) based on Management’s assessment that there was an increased likelihood that the loan secured by the mall and open-air center may not be successfully restructured or refinanced. Management determined the fair value of Parkdale Mall, Parkdale Crossing and Parkdale Anchor using a discounted cash flow methodology. The discounted cash flow used assumptions including a holding period of ten years, with a sale at the end of the holding period, a weighted-average capitalization rate of 12.3% and a weighted-average discount rate of 14.2%.

(7)In accordance with the Company’s quarterly impairment process, the Predecessor Company wrote down the book value of the outlet center to its estimated fair value of $16,660. The outlet center had experienced a decline in cash flow due to store closures and rent reductions. Management determined the fair value of The Shoppes of Gettysburg using a discounted cash flow methodology. The discounted cash flow used assumptions including a holding period of nine years, with a sale at the end of the holding period, a capitalization rate of 11.0% and a discount rate of 12.0%.

(8)In accordance with the Company’s quarterly impairment process, the Predecessor Company wrote down the book value of land to its estimated fair value of $4,240. The Company evaluated comparable land parcel transactions and determined that $4,240 was the land’s estimated fair value.

During the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, the Successor Company adjusted the negative equity in EastGate Mall to zero upon deconsolidation, which represented the estimated fair value of the Successor Company’s investment in that property. During the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021, the Predecessor Company adjusted the combined negative equity in Asheville Mall and Park Plaza to zero upon deconsolidation, which represented the estimated fair values of the Company’s investments in these properties. See Note 7 for additional information.

SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

12 Months Ended

Dec. 31, 2022

Share-Based Payment Arrangement, Noncash Expense [Abstract]

Share-based Compensation

NOTE 16. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Successor Company

2021 Equity Incentive Plan

Following the Effective Date, the board of directors of the Successor Company adopted the CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “EIP”). The EIP authorizes the grant of equity awards to eligible participants based on the new common stock, in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other equity awards. Awards under the EIP may be granted to officers, employees, directors, consultants and independent contractors of the reorganized company. Initially, 3,222,222 shares of new common stock are available under the EIP. The initial new common stock under the EIP is subject to an annual increase of a number of shares equal to 3% of the number of shares of new common stock issued and outstanding at the end of the relevant calendar year (beginning January 2023), or such lesser amount as the board of directors may determine. The Plan will be administered by the compensation committee of the board of directors, which will determine the participants who will be granted awards under the EIP and the terms and conditions of EIP awards.

In accordance with the provisions of ASU 2016-09, which are designed to simplify the accounting for share-based payments transactions, the Successor Company elected to account for forfeitures of share-based payments as they occur rather than estimating them in advance.

Restricted Stock Awards

Restricted stock awards granted to the Successor Company’s executive officers vest over a four-year period, with restrictions expiring on 25% of the shares subject to each award annually beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant. Restricted stock awards granted to the Successor Company’s non-executive officers vest over a three-year period, with restrictions expiring on 33% of the shares subject to each award annually beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant. Restricted stock awards granted to the Successor Company’s non-employee directors vest over a one-year period, with restrictions expiring each January. The grantee generally has all the rights of a stockholder during the vesting/restricted period, including the right to receive dividends on the same basis and at the same rate as all other outstanding shares of common stock and the right to vote such shares on any matter on which holders of the Successor Company’s common stock are entitled to vote. The shares generally are not transferable during the restricted period, except for any transfers which may be required by law.

A summary of the status of the Successor Company’s nonvested restricted stock awards as of December 31, 2022, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2022, are presented below:

	Shares			Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Share
Nonvested at January 1, 2022		784,999		$	27.57
Granted		115,884		$	26.71
Vested		(215,508	)	$	27.56
Forfeited		(22,500	)	$	27.57
Nonvested at December 31, 2022		662,875		$	27.42

Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The share-based compensation cost related to restricted stock awards was $7,400 for the Successor year ended December 31, 2022 and $299 for the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. Share-based compensation cost resulting from share-based awards is recorded at the Management Company, which is a taxable entity.

The total grant-date fair value of restricted stock awards granted during the Successor year ended December 31, 2022 was $3,095. The total grant-date fair value of restricted stock awards granted during the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021 was $21,642. The total fair value of restricted stock awards that vested during the Successor year ended December 31, 2022 was $5,306. No restricted stock awards vested during the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021.

As of December 31, 2022, there was $16,418 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested restricted stock awards granted under the EIP, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.8 years.

Performance Stock Unit Awards

In February 2022, the compensation committee of the board of directors of the Company approved the terms of new awards of PSUs. The PSUs are earned over a four-year performance period aligned with fiscal years 2022 (includes the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021) through 2025, with one-quarter of the PSUs assigned to each fiscal year within the four-year performance period (each, an “Annual Performance Period” and all four, collectively, the “Full Performance Period”). The number of PSUs earned for each fiscal year within the four-year performance period will be determined based on the achievement of both (i) a quantitative total market return goal (the “TMR Goal”), and (ii) a Company-specific stated goal (the “Stated Goal”), for such fiscal year. The total market return (or TMR) is calculated as the sum of: (i) the average of the multiple of the Company’s average number of shares of common stock outstanding and the average closing share price of common stock for twenty consecutive trading days, and (ii) the value of cash dividends declared during the applicable fiscal year performance period. The TMR Goal will be met if the required level of total market return is achieved at any time during the last 90 trading days of the applicable fiscal year; provided that an additional six month extended measurement period will be applied for the fourth and final fiscal year (the “TMR Year 4 Grace Period”). The Stated Goal for each year will be met if it is achieved at any time during a cumulative performance period beginning November 1, 2021 and ending on December 31 of the applicable calendar year (the “Stated Goal Performance Period”), subject to a grace period of 6-months following the last day of each Stated Goal Performance Period (the “Stated Goal Grace Period”). If the Stated Goal is not achieved for any fiscal year measurement period (including the applicable grace period), then the PSUs allocable to that fiscal year will be forfeited. If the Stated Goal for a fiscal year is achieved but the TMR Goal is not achieved, then the unearned PSUs for the fiscal year will carry over to the succeeding fiscal year and may be earned based on attainment of the goals for the subsequent performance period. If the Stated Goal is achieved for all four fiscal years, then 50% of any outstanding PSUs will be earned. If a participating officer’s employment is terminated prior to the end of any annual performance period due to death or disability (as defined in the PSU award agreements), or due to a termination by the Company without cause (as defined in the PSU award agreements), then the officer will be entitled to receive a pro rata portion of any PSUs earned for that annual performance period (determined by dividing the number of days from January 1 of the applicable annual performance period through the date of such termination by 365), and any remaining PSUs for such annual performance period, and any subsequent annual performance period, will be forfeited.

A summary of the status of the Successor Company’s PSU awards as of December 31, 2022, and changes during the year ended December 31, 2022, are presented below:

	PSUs			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
Outstanding at January 1, 2022		—		$	—
2022 PSUs granted (1)		727,223		$	24.67
2022 incremental PSUs granted (1)		82,281		$	26.66
Vested		(202,376	)	$	24.87
Outstanding at December 31, 2022		607,128		$	24.69

(1)PSUs granted shall be adjusted as if the shares of common stock represented by such PSUs had received any applicable stock or cash dividends declared. As for stock dividends, a number of PSUs shall be added to the target amount corresponding to the number of shares of common stock that would have been payable per such stock dividend on the then outstanding number of PSUs under the agreement as if common stock had been issued for such PSUs. As to cash dividends, a number of PSUs shall be added to the target amount corresponding to the number of shares of common stock that could have been acquired by the cash dividend payable on the then outstanding number of PSUs under the agreement as if common stock had been issued for such PSUs, and the calculation of the number of shares of common stock that could have been acquired shall be based on the closing price of the common stock on the record date for the cash dividend at issue.

Management assesses the Stated Goals quarterly to determine whether it is probable they will be achieved. The Company begins recognizing compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the remaining service period once the Stated Goal is deemed probable of achievement. Share-based compensation expense related to the Successor Company’s PSUs was $4,485 for the year ended December 31, 2022. The unrecognized compensation expense related to the Successor Company’s PSUs was $13,457 as of December 31, 2022, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.0 years.

The following table summarizes the assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation pricing model related to the Successor Company’s PSUs:

	2022 PSUs
Grant date	February 16, 2022
Fair value per share on valuation date (1)	$	24.67
Risk-free interest rate (2)		1.85	%
Expected share price volatility (3)		65.00	%

(1)The value of the PSU awards is estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The valuation consists of computing the fair value using CBL's simulated stock price as well as TMR for each performance period. The award is modeled as a contingent claim in that the expected return on the underlying shares is risk-free and the rate of discounting the payoff of the award is also risk-free.

(2)The risk-free interest rate was based on the yield curve on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities in effect as of the valuation date, which is the grant date listed above.

(3)The computation of expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of the share prices of comparable, publicly traded companies and given the Company's risk profile and leverage relative to the comparable, publicly traded companies. The Company's historical volatility was not relied upon given the Company's limited trading history since the Effective Date.

Predecessor Company

Prior to the Effective Date, the Company had outstanding awards under the CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. 2012 Stock Incentive Plan ("the 2012 Plan"), which permitted the Company to issue stock options and common stock to selected officers, employees and non-employee directors of the Company up to a total of 10,400,000 shares. The compensation committee of the board of directors administered the 2012 Plan.

Restricted Stock Awards

Under the 2012 Plan, common stock could be awarded either alone, in addition to, or in tandem with other granted stock awards. The Committee had the authority to determine eligible persons to whom common stock would be awarded, the number of shares to be awarded and the duration of the vesting period, as defined. Generally, an award of common stock vested either immediately at grant or in equal installments over a period of five years. Stock awarded to independent directors was fully vested upon grant; however, the independent directors could not transfer such shares during their board term. The Committee could also provide for the issuance of common stock under the 2012 Plan on a deferred basis pursuant to deferred compensation arrangements. The fair value of common stock awarded under the 2012 Plan was determined based on the market price of CBL’s common stock on the grant date and the related compensation expense was recognized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis.

As of the Effective Date and pursuant to the Plan, nonvested restricted stock of the Predecessor Company was deemed vested and the Company’s 2012 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2012 Plan”), pursuant to which such restricted stock had been granted, was terminated. A summary of the Predecessor Company’s restricted stock awards as of October 31, 2021, and changes during the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021, are presented below:

	Shares			Weighted- Average Grant-Date Fair Value Per Share
Nonvested at January 1, 2021		1,519,774		$	2.15
Vested		(1,490,751	)	$	2.14
Forfeited		(29,023	)	$	2.73
Nonvested at October 31, 2021		—		$	—

In conjunction with the vesting of the restricted stock on the Effective Date, the Predecessor Company accelerated the share-based compensation cost and recorded $863 of share-based compensation cost for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. The share-based compensation cost related to the restricted stock awards of the Predecessor Company was $2,239 for 2020. Share-based compensation cost resulting from share-based awards is recorded at the Management Company, which is a taxable entity. Share-based compensation cost capitalized as part of real estate assets was $10 for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. Share-based compensation cost capitalized as part of real estate assets was $20 in 2020.

The weighted-average grant-date fair value per share of shares granted during 2020 was $0.86. The total fair value of shares vested during 2021 and 2020 was $220 and $951, respectively.

Long-Term Incentive Program

In 2015, the Company adopted a long-term incentive program ("LTIP") for its named executive officers, which consisted of PSUs awards and annual restricted stock awards, that could be issued under the 2012 Plan. The number of shares related to the PSU awards that each named executive officer could receive upon the conclusion of a three-year performance period was determined based on the Company's achievement of specified levels of long-term total stockholder return ("TSR") performance relative to the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") Retail Index, provided that at least a "Threshold" level must be attained for any shares to be earned.

Beginning with the 2018 PSUs, two-thirds of the quantitative portion of the award over the performance period was based on the achievement of TSR relative to the NAREIT Retail Index while the remaining one-third was based on the achievement of absolute TSR metrics for the Company. Beginning with the 2018 PSU grant, to maintain compliance with a 200,000 share annual equity grant limit (the “Section 162(m) Grant Limit”) that was included in the 2012 Plan to satisfy the “qualified performance-based compensation” exception to the deduction limits for certain executive compensation under Section 162(m) of the Code, to the extent that a grant of PSUs could result in the issuance of a number of shares of common stock at the conclusion of the performance period that, when coupled with the number of shares of time-vesting restricted stock granted in the same year the PSUs were granted, would exceed such limit, any such excess would be converted to a cash bonus award with a value equivalent to the number of shares of common stock constituting such excess times the average of the high and low trading prices reported for CBL's common stock on the date such shares would otherwise have been issuable.

In conjunction with the February 2020 approval of the 2020 LTIP grants for the named executive officers, the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan was amended to remove the Section 162(m) Grant Limit, which no longer served its original purpose because the “qualified performance-based compensation” exception to the Section 162(m) deduction limits was repealed by the 2017 tax reform legislation. However, NYSE rules also include an annual equity grant limit which effectively limits the number of shares that can be subject to stock awards to any individual named executive officer, without additional shareholder approval, to one percent (1%) of the total number of outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “NYSE Annual Grant Limit”). To maintain NYSE compliance following elimination of the Section 162(m) Grant Limit, the Company’s Compensation Committee revised PSU awards under the LTIP, beginning in 2020, to provide that if a grant of PSUs could result in the issuance of a number of shares to a named executive officer at the conclusion of the 3-year performance period that would exceed the NYSE Annual Grant Limit, when coupled with the number of shares subject to other stock awards (e.g., the time-vesting restricted stock component of the LTIP) issued in the same year that such PSUs were issued, any such excess will instead be converted to a cash bonus award, while remaining subject to vesting conditions as described below.

Annual Restricted Stock Awards

Under the LTIP, annual restricted stock awards consisted of shares of time-vested restricted stock awarded based on a qualitative evaluation of the performance of the Company and the named executive officer during the fiscal year. Annual restricted stock awards under the LTIP, which are included in the totals reflected in the preceding table, vested 25% on the date of grant with the remainder vesting in three equal annual installments. Outstanding restricted stock, and related grant/vesting/forfeiture activity during the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021, through October 31, 2021 for awards made to named executive officers under the LTIP, is included in the information presented in the table above.

Performance Stock Units

The Predecessor Company granted the following PSUs in the first quarter of the respective years. A summary of PSU activity as of October 31, 2021, and changes during the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021, is presented below:

	PSUs			Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value
2019 PSUs granted (1)		1,103,537		$	2.40
2020 PSUs granted (2)		3,408,083		$	0.84
2020 PSUs cancelled (3)		(3,408,083	)	$	0.84
Outstanding at January 1, 2021		1,103,537		$	2.40
2019 PSUs cancelled (4)		(1,103,537	)	$	2.40
Outstanding at October 31, 2021		—		$	—

(1)Includes 566,862 shares classified as a liability due to the potential cash component.

(2)Includes 1,247,098 shares classified as a liability due to the potential cash component.

(3)In connection with the restructuring and support agreement, dated as of August 18, 2020, by and between the Predecessor Company and certain beneficial owners and/or investment advisors or managers of discretionary funds, accounts or other entities for the holders of beneficial owners (the "Consenting Noteholders"), the 2020 PSUs were cancelled.

(4)As of the Effective Date and pursuant to the Plan, all outstanding PSUs of the Predecessor Company were deemed cancelled.

Compensation cost was recognized on a tranche-by-tranche basis using the accelerated attribution method. The resulting expense was recorded regardless of whether any PSU awards were earned as long as the required service period was met.

Share-based compensation expense related to the PSUs was $315 for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. Share-based compensation expense related to the PSUs was $3,185 in 2020. Share-based compensation expense in 2020 included $2,052 of expense related to the cancellation of the 2020 PSUs.

The following table summarizes the assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation pricing model related to the Predecessor Company’s PSUs:

	2020 PSUs
Grant date	February 10, 2020
Fair value per share on valuation date (1)	$	0.84
Risk-free interest rate (2)		1.39	%
Expected share price volatility (3)		57.98	%

(1)The value of the PSU awards is estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The valuation consists of computing the fair value using CBL's simulated stock price as well as TSR over a three-year performance period. The award is modeled as a contingent claim in that the expected return on the underlying shares is risk-free and the rate of discounting the payoff of the award is also risk-free. The weighted-average fair value per share related to the 2020 PSUs classified as equity consists of 2,131,245 shares at a fair value of $0.88 (which relate to relative TSR) and 1,065,463 shares at fair value of $0.75 per share (which relate to absolute TSR).

(2)The risk-free interest rate was based on the yield curve on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities in effect as of the valuation date, which is the respective grant date listed above.

(3)The computation of expected volatility was based on a blend of the historical volatility of CBL's shares of common stock based on annualized daily total continuous returns over a five-year period for the 2020 PSUs and implied volatility data based on the trailing month average of daily implied volatilities implied by stock call option contracts that were both closest to the terms shown and closest to the money.

Chapter Eleven Cases And Ability To Continue As Going Concern [Abstract]

Emergence From Voluntary Reorganization Under Chapter 11

NOTE 18. EMERGENCE FROM VOLUNTARY REORGANIZATION UNDER CHAPTER 11

Voluntary Reorganization Under Chapter 11

On August 18, 2020, the Company entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement, (the “Original RSA”) with the Consenting Noteholders representing in excess of 62%, including joining noteholders pursuant to joinder agreements, of the Notes.

On October 28, 2020, the Operating Partnership was notified by the administrative agent and lenders that they elected to exercise their rights pursuant to the terms of the secured credit facility to (i) require that rents payable by tenants at the properties that are collateral to the secured credit facility be paid directly to the administrative agent and (ii) exercise all voting rights and other ownership rights in respect of all the equity interests in the subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership that are guarantors of the secured credit facility.

Beginning on November 1, 2020, the Debtors filed the Chapter 11 Cases under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code in the Bankruptcy Court. The Bankruptcy Court authorized the Debtors to continue to operate their businesses and manage their properties as debtors-in-possession pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code. The Chapter 11 Cases are being jointly administered for procedural purposes only under the caption In re CBL & Associates Properties, Inc., et al., Case No. 20-35226.

The filing of the Chapter 11 Cases constituted an event of default with respect to certain property-level debt of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries. See Note 7 and Note 8 for further discussion.

In connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, on August 11, 2021, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order, Docket No.1397 (Confirmation Order), confirming the Plan.

On the Effective Date, the conditions to effectiveness of the Plan were satisfied and the Debtors emerged from the Chapter 11 Cases. The Company filed a notice of the Effective Date of the Plan with the Bankruptcy Court on November 1, 2021. Following the Effective Date, one of the Debtors’ Chapter 11 Cases remains open to administer claims pursuant to the Plan.

On the Effective Date, in exchange for their approximately $1,375,000 in principal amount of senior unsecured notes and $133,000 in principal amount of the secured credit facility, Consenting Noteholders, other noteholders, and certain holders of unsecured claims against the Company received, in the aggregate, $95,000 in cash, $455,000 of new senior secured notes, $100,000 of new exchangeable secured notes, based upon the election by certain Consenting Noteholders, and 89% in common equity of the newly reorganized company (subject to dilution, as set forth in the Plan). Certain Consenting Noteholders also provided $50,000 of new money in exchange for additional new exchangeable secured notes. Pursuant to the Plan the remaining lenders of the senior secured credit facility, holding $983,700 in principal amount, received $100,000 in cash and a new $883,700 secured term loan. Existing common and preferred shareholders each received 5.5% of common equity in the newly reorganized company. On the Effective Date, the Company had an aggregate 20,000,000 shares of new common stock and units issued and outstanding.

On the Effective Date, the Company reserved an additional (i) approximately 9,000,000 shares of new common stock for issuance upon the potential exercise of the new exchangeable notes and (ii) 3,222,222 shares of new common stock for issuance under an equity incentive plan.

On the Effective Date, all prior equity interests of the Company issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date, including (1) CBL’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share and CBL’s preferred stock and related depositary shares and (2) the Operating Partnership’s limited partnership common interests and the limited partnership preferred interests related to CBL’s preferred stock, and any rights of any holder in respect thereof, were deemed cancelled, discharged and of no force or effect.

Registration Rights Agreement

Pursuant to the Plan, on the Effective Date, the Company and certain holders of the newly issued shares of common stock, par value $0.001, of the Company executed a registration rights agreement.

Pursuant to the registration rights agreement, the Company agreed to file with the SEC an initial shelf registration statement on Form S-11 as soon as practicable after the filing with the SEC of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2021 (including any portions thereof that are incorporated by reference into such Form 10-K from the Company’s definitive proxy statement for the Company’s 2022 annual meeting of shareholders), and to use reasonable best efforts to substitute this with a shelf registration on Form S-3 as soon as reasonably practicable following the Company’s becoming eligible to use such form. Any holder or group of holders will have the right to request that the Company include some or all the shares of new common stock held by them, including shares of new common stock issuable upon conversion of the exchangeable notes, in such initial shelf registration statement or shelf registration statement. The Company also agreed to file a “demand” shelf registration statement, or to facilitate a “takedown” of registrable securities in the form of an underwritten offering under any existing shelf registration statement, to the extent that (1) the registrable securities sought to be sold equal at least 5% of all outstanding shares of new common stock on the date of any such request or (2) the anticipated aggregate gross offering price of such registrable securities is at least $25,000 (prior to the deduction of any underwriting discounts and commissions). The Company shall also not be required to file a “demand” registration statement if (a) the registrable securities proposed to be sold are already covered by an existing and effective registration statement that may utilized for the offer and sale of such registrable securities, or (b) there have previously been more than 6 such demands in the aggregate.

On May 6, 2022, the Company filed a resale registration statement on Form S-11 covering the offer and sale, from time to time, of up to 12,380,260 shares of common stock by the selling shareholders named therein, pursuant to the requirements of the registration rights agreement. The Company will not receive any proceeds from resales of shares of common stock by the selling shareholders pursuant to this registration statement.

2021 Equity Incentive Plan

Following the Effective Date, the board of directors of the Company adopted the EIP. See Note 16 for additional information.

Fifth Amended and Restated Operating Partnership Agreement

On the Effective Date, under the terms of the Plan, affiliates of the Company entered into a Fifth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership for the Operating Partnership (the “New OP Agreement”) with CBL (solely for purposes of acknowledging the provisions thereof) and the remaining holders of the old limited partnership preferred interests (the “Old LP Interests”) who elected to remain limited partners of the Operating Partnership following emergence.

Pursuant to the Plan, the New OP Agreement supersedes and replaces in its entirety the Operating Partnership’s Fourth Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership, as amended (the “Old OP Agreement”), and all of the common units, special common units and preferred units of limited partnership of the Operating Partnership outstanding under the Old OP Agreement were cancelled and new common units (which, as of the Effective Date, are the only class of equity of the Operating Partnership outstanding) were issued to certain holders, as described in Note 9. The New OP Agreement also eliminated the terms of all the classes of preferred units, as well as all the classes of special common units, that were defined in the Old OP Agreement.

Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation

In connection with the Company’s reorganization and emergence from its Chapter 11 Proceedings, as provided in the Plan, effective as of the Effective Date, CBL adopted a Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Updated COI”), which replaced and superseded the CBL’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation as it existed immediately prior to the Effective Date (the “Prior COI”), and also adopted the Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws for CBL (the “Updated Bylaws”), which replaced and superseded CBL’s Third Amended and Restated Bylaws as they existed immediately prior to the Effective Date (the “Prior Bylaws”).

Delisting of Common Stock and Depositary Shares

On November 2, 2020, the NYSE announced that (i) it had suspended trading in the Company’s stock and (ii) it had determined to commence proceedings to delist the Company’s common stock, as well as the Series D Preferred Stock and the Series E Preferred Stock, due to such securities no longer being suitable for listing based on “abnormally low” trading price levels, pursuant to Section 802.01D of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. The Company appealed this decision in accordance with NYSE rules. In the meantime, effective November 3, 2020, the Company’s common stock and the depositary shares representing fractional interests in its Series D Preferred Stock and Series E Preferred Stock began trading on the OTC Markets, operated by the OTC Markets Group, Inc., under the symbols CBLAQ, CBLDQ and CBLEQ, respectively. On November 2, 2021, the newly issued common stock of the reorganized company commenced trading on the NYSE under the symbol CBL.

Reorganization Items

Any expenses, gains and losses that were realized or incurred as of or subsequent to November 1, 2020, and as a direct result of the Chapter 11 Cases, were recorded in the line item “Reorganization items, net” in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. For the Successor year ended December 31, 2022 and the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, reorganization items, net, was $298 and $(1,403), respectively. For the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021, the $(435,162) of reorganization items, net, consists of $(779,092) associated with remeasuring the value of the individual assets and liabilities of the Successor Company as of the Effective Date, $(75,545) in professional fees and success fees, $(1,211) in compensation associated with reorganization efforts and $(1,741) of U.S. Trustee fees, offset by the gain on settlement of liabilities subject to compromise of $422,427.

Fresh Start Accounting [Abstract]

Fresh Start Accounting

NOTE 19. FRESH START ACCOUNTING

Fresh Start

Upon emergence from bankruptcy, the Company qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting in accordance with ASC 852, which resulted in the Company becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes because (1) the holders of the then existing common shares of the Predecessor received less than 50 percent of the new shares of common stock of the Successor outstanding upon emergence and (2) the reorganization value of the Company’s assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plan was less than the total of all post-petition liabilities and allowed claims. The Company elected to apply fresh start accounting using a convenience date of October 31, 2021. Management evaluated and concluded that the events on November 1, 2021 were not material to the Company’s financial reporting on both a quantitative and qualitative basis.

The reorganization value derived from the range of equity values associated with the Plan was allocated to the Company’s identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities based on their fair values. The Effective Date fair values of the Company’s assets and liabilities differ materially from their recorded values as reflected on the historical balance sheets.

Reorganization Value

Under ASC 852, the Successor determined a value to be assigned to the equity of the emerging entity as of the date of adoption of fresh start accounting. Based on the Company’s revised projections filed with the SEC on a Form 8-K on May 6, 2021, management and its investment bankers reassessed the value of the Company, resulting in an estimated range of shareholders’ equity between $50,000 and $550,000. The Company engaged third-party valuation advisors to assist the Company in their determination of a point estimate of equity value within the range.

Management concluded that the best point estimate of shareholders’ equity was $547,448, which resulted in $553,535 of total equity, including noncontrolling interest in the Operating Partnership. The Company engaged valuation experts to assist management in the allocation of such enterprise value to the assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes. The Company estimated enterprise value using a discounted cash flow approach. In order to estimate enterprise value, the Company estimated cash flows over a five-year period plus a residual value calculated using a capitalization rate of 10% applied to the residual period cash flows, all of which were discounted to an estimated present value using the Company’s estimated weighted average cost of capital of 11%. The estimated future cash flows were based on financial projections utilized by the Company’s investment bankers in deriving the range of equity value. The fair value of mortgage and other indebtedness and the 10% senior secured notes were subtracted from and the balance of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash was added to enterprise value to determine equity value. The fair value of mortgage and other indebtedness was estimated based on an analysis of collateral coverage, financial metrics and interest rate for each mortgage note payable relative to market rates (see below for a more detailed description). The most subjective and judgmental assumptions used in the determination of enterprise and equity value include the Company’s projected cash flows (projected revenues, operating expenses, capital expenditures and cash flows), capitalization and discount rates, and market interest rates for mortgage note payable obligations.

The following table reconciles the enterprise value to the estimated fair value of the Successor’s common shares as of the Effective Date:

Enterprise value, less cash	$	2,296,872
Less: Fair value of noncontrolling interest in consolidated subsidiaries		(6,087	)
Enterprise value of the Company's interests, less cash		2,290,785
Plus: Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash		330,282
Less: Fair value of mortgage and other indebtedness		(1,678,619	)
Less: Fair value of 10% senior secured notes		(395,000	)
Fair value of Successor total shareholders' equity	$	547,448
Shares and units issued upon emergence		20,000,000
Per share value	$	27.37

The following table reconciles the enterprise value to the reorganization value of the Successor’s assets to be allocated to the Company’s individual assets as of the Effective Date:

Enterprise value, less cash	$	2,296,872
Plus: Cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash		330,282
Plus: Accounts payable and accrued liabilities		335,513
Reorganization value of Successor's assets	$	2,962,667

The enterprise value and corresponding equity value are dependent upon achieving the future financial results set forth in the Company’s projections, as well as the realization of certain other assumptions. All estimates, assumptions, valuations and financial projections, including the fair value adjustments, the financial projections, the enterprise value and equity value projections, are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and the resolution of contingencies beyond the Company’s control. Accordingly, the Company cannot assure that the estimates, assumptions, valuations or financial projections will be realized and actual results could vary materially.

Real Estate Assets

In developing the fair value estimates for the portfolio of retail properties, all three traditional approaches to valuation were considered including the income approach, the sales comparison (market) approach and the cost approach. These valuation approaches have long been recognized as acceptable in the appropriate circumstances and in valuations of this type. Accordingly, all applicable properties were identified, investigated and examined by the valuation provider along with all intangible assets and liabilities associated with the properties. Furthermore, the valuation provider estimated the fair values and remaining useful lives ("RUL") of the related intangible assets and liabilities at the property-level, as applicable. In most cases, the properties included the following intangible assets/liabilities:

·Above/below-market leases

·In-place leases

·Avoided lease origination costs (leasing commissions, tenant improvements, etc.)

·Property-level debt

For the valuation of the tangible assets of each property, all pertinent information such as blueprints and drawings, property tax statements, prior appraisals and cost segregation reports were utilized. In terms of methodology, the properties were valued via the income approach in order to estimate building values. Separate values for the underlying land and site improvements were developed via the cost approach. As part of the allocation process, the fair value of the following tangible components was estimated:

·Land

·Building(s)

·Site Improvements

Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliates

The fair value of the Company’s investment in unconsolidated affiliates for fresh start accounting was determined by valuing the underlying real estate assets associated with each unconsolidated joint venture in the same manner as all real estate assets, described above. The Company then calculated the net asset or liability value of each joint venture by applying the net working capital balance to the fair value of the real estate assets and the amount outstanding under any associated mortgage notes. The percentage of ownership interest in each joint venture was applied to the net asset or liability value which resulted in the fair value of each unconsolidated affiliate. See Note 2 for further information related to the equity method of accounting.

Right-of-Use Assets and Lease Liabilities

The fair value of lease liabilities was measured as the present value of the remaining lease payments, as if the lease were a new lease as of the Effective Date. The Company used its incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) as the discount rate in determining the present value of the remaining lease payments, which was determined by a third-party valuation advisor using a fundamental credit rating analysis and an implied market yield analysis based on the newly issued Secured Notes. Based upon the corresponding lease term, the IBR was approximately 12.0%.

Mortgage Notes Payable

The fair value of the mortgage notes payable was estimated by a third-party valuation advisor based on an analysis of the Company’s collateral coverage, financial metrics and interest rate for each mortgage note payable relative to market rates. If there is a reasonable expectation that the debtor will be able to meet the financial obligations of the mortgage note payable, or the mortgage note payable is a recourse loan, then the value of the mortgage note is equal to the present value of the future mortgage note payments discounted at a rate of return commensurate with the risk associated with the mortgage note payments. If the debtor is unable, or if there is uncertainty if the debtor will be able, to meet the financial obligations of the mortgage note, then the value of the mortgage note payable is equal to the expected proceeds to be received through a liquidation of the underlying property at fair value.

Consolidated Balance Sheet

The adjustments included in the following fresh start consolidated balance sheet reflect the effects of the transactions contemplated by the Plan and executed by the Company on the Effective Date (reflected in the column “Reorganization Adjustments”), and fair value and other required accounting adjustments resulting from the adoption of fresh start accounting (reflected in the column “Fresh Start Accounting Adjustments”).

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the consolidated accounts of the Successor Company and the Predecessor Company, as well as entities in which the Successor Company or the Predecessor Company has a controlling financial interest or entities where the Successor Company or the Predecessor Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE. For entities in which the Successor Company or the Predecessor Company has less than a controlling financial interest or entities where the Company is not deemed to be the primary beneficiary of a VIE, the entities are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Successor Company's or the Predecessor Company’s share of the net earnings or losses of these entities is included in consolidated net income (loss). The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

This ASU was effective as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. On December 21, 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06 to defer the sunset date of ASC 848 until December 31, 2024. The Successor Company has not adopted any of the optional expedients or exceptions as of December 31, 2022. The Successor Company does not anticipate needing to adopt this guidance, but will continue to monitor its contracts and evaluate the possible adoption of any such expedients or exceptions during the effective period to determine the impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Real Estate Assets

Real Estate Assets

The Company capitalizes predevelopment project costs paid to third parties. All previously capitalized predevelopment costs are expensed when it is no longer probable that the project will be completed. Once development of a project commences, all direct costs incurred to construct the project, including interest and real estate taxes, are capitalized. Additionally, certain general and administrative expenses are allocated to the projects and capitalized based on the amount of time applicable personnel work on the development project. Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Major replacements and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives.

All real estate assets acquired prior to and after the Effective Date have been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting and accordingly, the results of operations are included in the consolidated statements of operations from the respective dates of acquisition. The Company allocates the purchase price to (i) tangible assets, consisting of land, buildings and improvements, as if vacant, and tenant improvements, and (ii) identifiable intangible assets and liabilities, generally consisting of above-market leases, in-place leases and tenant relationships, which are included in intangible lease assets and other assets, and below-market leases, which are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities. The Company uses estimates of fair value based on estimated cash flows, using appropriate discount rates, and other valuation techniques to allocate the purchase price to the acquired tangible and intangible assets. Liabilities assumed generally consist of mortgage debt on the real estate assets acquired. Assumed debt is recorded at its fair value based on estimated market interest rates at the date of acquisition. The Successor Company expects its future acquisitions will be accounted for as acquisitions of assets in which related transaction costs will be capitalized.

Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over estimated lives of 30 years for buildings, 10 to 20 years for certain improvements and 5 to 10 years for equipment and fixtures. Tenant improvements are capitalized and depreciated on a straight-line basis over the term of the related lease. Lease-related intangibles from acquisitions of real estate assets are generally amortized over the remaining terms of the related leases. The amortization of above- and below-market leases is recorded as an adjustment to rental revenue, while the amortization of all other lease-related intangibles is recorded as amortization expense. Any difference between the face value of the debt assumed and its fair value is amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the debt using the effective interest method.

The Successor Company’s intangibles and their balance sheet classifications as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, are summarized as follows:

	December 31, 2022					December 31, 2021
	Cost		Accumulated Amortization			Cost		Accumulated Amortization
Above-market leases	$	241,048	$	(69,783	)	$	244,575	$	(10,289	)
In-place leases		396,515		(149,018	)		412,683		(27,979	)
Intangible lease assets and other assets:
Tenant relationships		2,523		(12	)		86		—
Below-market leases		153,273		(42,657	)		158,300		(6,429	)

These intangibles are related to specific tenant leases. Should a termination occur earlier than the date indicated in the lease, the related unamortized intangible assets or liabilities, if any, related to the lease are recorded as expense or income, as applicable. The total net amortization expense of the above intangibles for the Successor Company for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $152,174. The total net amortization expense of the above intangibles for the Successor Company for the period from November 1, 2021 through December 21, 2021 was $32,164. The total net amortization expense of the above intangibles for the Predecessor Company for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 was $1,195. The total net amortization expense of the above intangibles for the Predecessor Company for the year ended December 31, 2020 was $1,460. The estimated total net amortization expense for the next five succeeding years is $104,015 in 2023, $69,814 in 2024, $46,481 in 2025, $29,913 in 2026 and $19,098 in 2027.

The Successor Company capitalized interest expense of $618 for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Successor Company capitalized interest expense of $216 during the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. The Predecessor Company did not capitalize interest expense during the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. Total interest expense capitalized during the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2020 was $1,640.

Accounts Receivable

Accounts Receivable

Receivables include amounts billed and currently due from tenants pursuant to lease agreements and receivables attributable to straight-line rents associated with those lease agreements. Individual leases where the collection of rents is in dispute are assessed for collectability based on management’s best estimate of collection considering the anticipated outcome of the dispute. Individual leases that are not in dispute are assessed for collectability and upon the determination that the collection of rents over the remaining lease term is not probable, accounts receivable is reduced as an adjustment to rental revenues. Revenue from leases where collection is deemed to be less than probable is recorded on a cash basis until collectability is determined to be probable. Further, management assesses whether operating lease receivables, at a portfolio level, are appropriately valued based upon an analysis of balances outstanding, historical collection levels and current economic trends. An allowance for the uncollectable portion of the portfolio is recorded as an adjustment to rental revenues.

Management’s collection assessment took into consideration the type of retailer, billing disputes, lease negotiation status and executed deferral or abatement agreements, as well as recent rent collection experience and tenant bankruptcies based on the best information available to management at the time of evaluation.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, there was a reversal of $4,463 related to uncollectable revenues, which includes the write-off of $102 for straight line rent receivables. For the period November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021, the Successor Company recorded $1,008 associated with uncollectable revenues, which includes $1,717 for straight line rent receivables. For the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 the Predecessor Company recorded $5,692 associated with uncollectable revenues, which includes $2,806 for straight line rent receivables. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Predecessor Company recorded $48,240 associated with uncollectable revenues, which includes $5,603 for straight line rent receivables.

Carrying Value of Long-Lived Assets

Carrying Value of Long-Lived Assets

The Company monitors events or changes in circumstances that could indicate the carrying value of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable. The Company uses significant judgement in assessing events or circumstances which might indicate impairment, including but not limited to, changes in management’s intent to hold a long-lived asset over its previously estimated useful life. Changes in management’s intent to hold a long-lived asset have a significant impact on the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use and eventual disposition of a long-lived asset and whether a potential impairment loss shall be measured. When indicators of potential impairment are present that suggest that the carrying amounts of a long-lived asset may not be recoverable, the Company assesses the recoverability of the asset by determining whether the asset’s carrying value will be recovered through the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected from the Company’s use and its eventual disposition. In the event that such undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, the Company adjusts the carrying value of the long-lived asset to its estimated fair value and recognizes an impairment loss. The estimated fair value is calculated based on the following information, in order of preference, depending upon availability: (Level 1) recently quoted market prices, (Level 2) market prices for comparable properties, or (Level 3) the present value of future cash flows, including estimated salvage value. Certain of the Company’s long-lived assets may be carried at more than an amount that could be realized in a current disposition transaction. The Company estimates future operating cash flows, the terminal capitalization rate and the discount rate, among other factors. As these assumptions are subject to economic and market uncertainties, they are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter the assumptions used or management’s estimates of future possible outcomes. Therefore, the future cash flows estimated in the Company’s impairment analyses may not be achieved. See Note 15 for information related to the impairment of long-lived assets in 2022, 2021 and 2020.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less as cash equivalents.

Restricted Cash

Restricted Cash

Restricted cash of $97,231 and $66,644 was included in intangible lease assets and other assets at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of December 31, 2022 and 2021, restricted cash was related to cash held in escrow accounts for insurance, real estate taxes, capital expenditures and tenant allowances as required by the terms of certain mortgage notes payable, as well as amounts related to cash management agreements with the Company’s lenders that are designated for debt service and operating expense obligations. As of December 31, 2022, restricted cash was also related to properties that secure the corporate term loan and the open-air centers and outparcels loan of which we may receive a portion via distributions semiannually and quarterly in accordance with the provisions of the term loan and the open-air centers and outparcels loan, respectively.

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates

The Company evaluates its joint venture arrangements to determine whether they should be recorded on a consolidated basis. The percentage of ownership interest in the joint venture, an evaluation of control and whether a VIE exists are all considered in the Company’s consolidation assessment.

Initial investments in joint ventures that are in economic substance a capital contribution to the joint venture are recorded in an amount equal to the cash contributed by the Company and the fair value of any real estate contributed. Initial investments in joint ventures that are in economic substance the sale of a portion of the Company’s interest in the real estate are accounted for as a contribution of real estate recorded in an amount equal to the fair value of the ownership interest retained and as a sale of real estate with profit recognized to the extent of the other joint venture partners’ interests in the joint venture. Profit recognition assumes the Company has no commitment to reinvest with respect to the percentage of the real estate sold and the accounting requirements of the full accrual method are met.

The Company accounts for its investment in joint ventures where it owns a noncontrolling interest or where it is not the primary beneficiary of a VIE using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method, the Company’s cost of investment is adjusted for additional contributions to and distributions from the unconsolidated affiliate, as well as its share of equity in the earnings of the unconsolidated affiliate. Generally, distributions of cash flows from operations and capital events are first made to partners to pay cumulative unpaid preferences on unreturned capital balances and then to the partners in accordance with the terms of the joint venture agreements.

On a periodic basis, the Company assesses whether there are any indicators that the fair value of the Company's investments in unconsolidated affiliates may be impaired. An investment is impaired only if the Company’s estimate of the fair value of the investment is less than the carrying value of the investment and such decline in value is deemed to be other than temporary. To the extent impairment has occurred, the loss is measured as the excess of the carrying amount of the investment over the estimated fair value of the investment. The Company's estimates of fair value for each investment are based on a number of assumptions that are subject to economic and market uncertainties including, but not limited to, demand for space, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, and operating costs. As these factors are difficult to predict and are subject to future events that may alter the Company’s assumptions, the fair values estimated in the impairment analyses may not be realized. No impairment charges were recorded for the Successor year ended December 31, 2022 and the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. No impairment charges were recorded for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2020.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred Financing Costs

During 2020, as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, unamortized financing costs of $16,779 related to the Predecessor Company's secured credit facility and senior unsecured notes were charged to expense and were recorded as “Reorganization items, net” within the Predecessor Company’s consolidated statements of operations. Unamortized financing costs of $17,101 and $1,568 for the Successor Company were included in mortgage and other indebtedness, net, at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Deferred financing costs include fees and costs incurred to obtain financing and are amortized on a straight-line basis to interest expense over the terms of the related indebtedness. Amortization expense related to deferred financing costs for the Successor Company for the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021 was $2,744 and $51, respectively. Amortization expense related to deferred financing costs for the Predecessor Company for the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 was $814 and $5,476, respectively. Accumulated amortization of deferred financing costs was $2,733 and $19 for the Successor Company as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. See Note 19 for information regarding unamortized financing costs that were charged to expense in connection with Fresh Start Accounting.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition

See Note 3 and Note 4 for a description of the Company's revenue streams.

Gain on Sales of Real Estate Assets

Gain on Sales of Real Estate Assets

Gains on the sale of real estate assets, like all non-lease related revenue, are subject to a five-step model requiring that the Company identify the contract with the customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and recognize revenue upon satisfaction of the performance obligations. In circumstances where the Company contracts to sell a property with material post-sale involvement, such involvement must be accounted for as a separate performance obligation in the contract and a portion of the sales price allocated to each performance obligation. When the post-sale involvement performance obligation is satisfied, the portion of the sales price allocated to it will be recognized as gain on sale of real estate assets. Property dispositions with no continuing involvement will continue to be recognized upon closing of the sale.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company is qualified as a REIT under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. To maintain qualification as a REIT, the Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to shareholders and meet certain other requirements.

As a REIT, the Company is generally not liable for federal corporate income taxes. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to federal and state income taxes on its taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. Even if the Company maintains its qualification as a REIT, the Company may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Successor Company had state tax expense of $1,631. The Successor Company had state tax expense of $142 for the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. State tax expense for the Predecessor Company was $2,992 during the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021. State tax expense for the Predecessor Company was $2,882 for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The Company has also elected taxable REIT subsidiary status for some of its subsidiaries. This enables the Company to receive income and provide services that would otherwise be impermissible for REITs. For these entities, deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of assets and liabilities at the enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when the temporary differences reverse. A valuation allowance for deferred tax assets is provided if the Company believes all or some portion of the deferred tax asset may not be realized. An increase or decrease in the valuation allowance that results from the change in circumstances that causes a change in the Company’s judgment about the realizability of the related deferred tax asset is included in income or expense, as applicable.

The Successor and Predecessor Company recorded an income tax (provision) benefit as follows:

	Successor						Predecessor
	Year Ended December 31,			For the Period November 1, through December 31,			For the Period January 1, through October 31,			Year Ended December 31,
	2022			2021			2021			2020
Current tax provision	$	(1,951	)	$	(4,968	)	$	(1,078	)	$	(2,278	)
Deferred tax (provision) benefit		(1,128	)		10,853			—			(14,558	)
Income tax (provision) benefit	$	(3,079	)	$	5,885		$	(1,078	)	$	(16,836	)

The Successor Company had a net deferred tax asset of $9,726 and $10,853 at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The net deferred tax asset at December 31, 2022 and 2021 is included in intangible lease assets and other assets. As of December 31, 2022, tax years that generally remain subject to examination by the Company’s major tax jurisdictions include 2022, 2021, 2020 and 2019.

The Company reports any income tax penalties attributable to its properties as property operating expenses and any corporate-related income tax penalties as general and administrative expenses in its consolidated statements of operations. In addition, any interest incurred on tax assessments is reported as interest expense. The Successor Company incurred nominal interest and penalty amounts during the year ended December 31, 2022 and for the period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. The Predecessor Company incurred nominal interest and penalty amounts during the period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company’s tenants include national, regional and local retailers. Financial instruments that subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of tenant receivables. The Company generally does not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit risk, but it monitors the credit standing of tenants. The Company derives a substantial portion of its rental income from various national and regional retail companies; however, no single tenant collectively accounted for more than 5.0% of the Successor Company’s revenues for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Earnings per Share and Earnings per Unit

Earnings per Share

Earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated under the two-class method. Under the two-class method, all earnings (distributed and undistributed) are allocated to common stock and participating securities. The Company grants restricted stock awards to certain employees under its share-based compensation program, which entitle recipients to receive nonforfeitable dividends during the vesting period on a basis equivalent to the dividends paid to holders of common stock. These unvested restricted stock awards meet the definition of participating securities based on their respective rights to receive nonforfeitable dividends.

Diluted EPS incorporates the potential impact of contingently issuable shares. Diluted EPS is calculated under both the two-class and treasury stock methods, and the more dilutive amount is reported. Performance stock units ("PSUs") and unvested restricted stock awards are contingently issuable common shares and are included in diluted EPS if the effect is dilutive. See Note 16 for a description of the long-term incentive program that these units relate to.

The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted EPS (in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Successor						Predecessor
	Year Ended December 31,			Period from November 1, through December 31,			Period from January 1, through October 31,			Year Ended December 31,
	2022			2021			2021			2020
Basic earnings per share
Net loss attributable to the Company	$	(93,482	)	$	(151,545	)	$	(470,627	)	$	(295,084	)
Less: Preferred dividends undeclared		—			—			—			(37,410	)
Less: Dividends allocable to unvested restricted stock		(2,537	)		—			—			—
Net loss attributable to common shareholders	$	(96,019	)	$	(151,545	)	$	(470,627	)	$	(332,494	)
Weighted-average basic shares outstanding		30,046			20,208			196,591			190,277
Net loss per share attributable to common shareholders	$	(3.20	)	$	(7.50	)	$	(2.39	)	$	(1.75	)
Diluted earnings per share (1)
Net loss attributable to common shareholders	$	(96,019	)	$	(151,545	)	$	(470,627	)	$	(332,494	)
Weighted-average basic shares outstanding		30,046			20,208			196,591			190,277
Net loss per share attributable to common shareholders	$	(3.20	)	$	(7.50	)	$	(2.39	)	$	(1.75	)

(1)Due to a net loss for the Successor year ended December 31, 2022, the computation of diluted EPS does not include contingently issuable shares due to their anti-dilutive nature. Had the Successor reported net income for the year ended December 31, 2022, the denominator for diluted EPS would have been 30,206,521, including 160,098 contingently issuable shares related to PSUs and unvested restricted stock awards. There were no potential dilutive common shares and there were no anti-dilutive shares for the Successor period from November 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. There were no potential dilutive common shares and there were no anti-dilutive shares for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2021 through October 31, 2021 and for the Predecessor year ended December 31, 2020.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Secured Notes	$	395,000	$	395	$	395,395

Schedule of Debt Securities, Available-for-sale Measured at Fair Value

The below table sets forth information regarding the Successor Company’s AFS securities that were measured at fair value. Subsequent to December 31, 2022, the Company redeemed and purchased additional U.S. Treasury securities. See Note 20 for additional information.

AFS Security	Amortized Cost (1)		Allowance for credit losses (2)		Total unrealized loss			Fair value as of December 31, 2022 (3)
U.S. Treasury securities	$	293,476	$	—	$	(1,054	)	$	292,422

(1)The U.S. Treasury securities have maturities through November 2023.

(2)U.S Treasury securities have a long history with no credit losses. Additionally, the Company notes that U.S Treasury securities are explicitly fully guaranteed by a sovereign entity that can print its own currency and that the sovereign entity’s currency is routinely held by central banks and other major financial institutions, is used in international commerce, and commonly viewed as a reserve currency, all of which qualitatively indicate that historical credit loss information should be minimally affected by current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Therefore, the Successor Company did not record expected credit losses for its U.S Treasury securities for the year ended December 31, 2022.

(3)The fair value was calculated using Level 1 inputs.

The following table sets forth information regarding the Successor Company’s AFS securities that were measured at fair value for the year ended December 31, 2021:

U.S. Treasury securities	$	149,999	$	—	$	(3	)	$	149,996

(1)U.S Treasury securities have a long history with no credit losses. Additionally, the Company notes that U.S Treasury securities are explicitly fully guaranteed by a sovereign entity that can print its own currency and that the sovereign entity’s currency is routinely held by central banks and other major financial institutions, is used in international commerce, and commonly viewed as a reserve currency, all of which qualitatively indicate that historical credit loss information should be minimally affected by current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Therefore, the Successor Company did not record expected credit losses for its U.S Treasury securities for the year ended December 31, 2021.

(2)The fair value was calculated using Level 1 inputs.

(1)In accordance with the Company's quarterly impairment process, the Predecessor Company wrote down the book value of the mall to its estimated fair value of $10,700. The mall had experienced a decline in cash flows due to store closures and rent reductions. Management determined the fair value of Eastland Mall using a discounted cash flow methodology.

The mall had experienced a decline in cash flows due to store closures and rent reductions. These factors resulted in a reduction of the expected hold period for the mall and open-air center (excluding the redeveloped anchor parcel) based on Management’s assessment that there was an increased likelihood that the loan secured by the mall and open-air center may not be successfully restructured or refinanced. Management determined the fair value of Parkdale Mall, Parkdale Crossing and Parkdale Anchor using a discounted cash flow methodology. The discounted cash flow used assumptions including a holding period of ten years, with a sale at the end of the holding period, a weighted-average capitalization rate of 12.3% and a weighted-average discount rate of 14.2%.

Schedule of Assumptions used in the Monte Carlo Simulation Pricing Models

The following table summarizes the assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation pricing model related to the Successor Company’s PSUs:

	2022 PSUs
Grant date	February 16, 2022
Fair value per share on valuation date (1)	$	24.67
Risk-free interest rate (2)		1.85	%
Expected share price volatility (3)		65.00	%

(1)The value of the PSU awards is estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The valuation consists of computing the fair value using CBL's simulated stock price as well as TMR for each performance period. The award is modeled as a contingent claim in that the expected return on the underlying shares is risk-free and the rate of discounting the payoff of the award is also risk-free.

(2)The risk-free interest rate was based on the yield curve on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities in effect as of the valuation date, which is the grant date listed above.

(3)The computation of expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of the share prices of comparable, publicly traded companies and given the Company's risk profile and leverage relative to the comparable, publicly traded companies. The Company's historical volatility was not relied upon given the Company's limited trading history since the Effective Date.

The following table summarizes the assumptions used in the Monte Carlo simulation pricing model related to the Predecessor Company’s PSUs:

	2020 PSUs
Grant date	February 10, 2020
Fair value per share on valuation date (1)	$	0.84
Risk-free interest rate (2)		1.39	%
Expected share price volatility (3)		57.98	%

(1)The value of the PSU awards is estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The valuation consists of computing the fair value using CBL's simulated stock price as well as TSR over a three-year performance period. The award is modeled as a contingent claim in that the expected return on the underlying shares is risk-free and the rate of discounting the payoff of the award is also risk-free. The weighted-average fair value per share related to the 2020 PSUs classified as equity consists of 2,131,245 shares at a fair value of $0.88 (which relate to relative TSR) and 1,065,463 shares at fair value of $0.75 per share (which relate to absolute TSR).

(2)The risk-free interest rate was based on the yield curve on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities in effect as of the valuation date, which is the respective grant date listed above.

(3)The computation of expected volatility was based on a blend of the historical volatility of CBL's shares of common stock based on annualized daily total continuous returns over a five-year period for the 2020 PSUs and implied volatility data based on the trailing month average of daily implied volatilities implied by stock call option contracts that were both closest to the terms shown and closest to the money.

Fresh-start reporting, description	Upon emergence from bankruptcy, the Company qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting in accordance with ASC 852, which resulted in the Company becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes because (1) the holders of the then existing common shares of the Predecessor received less than 50 percent of the new shares of common stock of the Successor outstanding upon emergence and (2) the reorganization value of the Company’s assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plan was less than the total of all post-petition liabilities and allowed claims. The Company elected to apply fresh start accounting using a convenience date of October 31, 2021. Management evaluated and concluded that the events on November 1, 2021 were not material to the Company’s financial reporting on both a quantitative and qualitative basis.

[1] PSUs granted shall be adjusted as if the shares of common stock represented by such PSUs had received any applicable stock or cash dividends declared. As for stock dividends, a number of PSUs shall be added to the target amount corresponding to the number of shares of common stock that would have been payable per such stock dividend on the then outstanding number of PSUs under the agreement as if common stock had been issued for such PSUs. As to cash dividends, a number of PSUs shall be added to the target amount corresponding to the number of shares of common stock that could have been acquired by the cash dividend payable on the then outstanding number of PSUs under the agreement as if common stock had been issued for such PSUs, and the calculation of the number of shares of common stock that could have been acquired shall be based on the closing price of the common stock on the record date for the cash dividend at issue.

[2] Includes 1,247,098 shares classified as a liability due to the potential cash component.

[3] Includes 566,862 shares classified as a liability due to the potential cash component.

[4] As of the Effective Date and pursuant to the Plan, all outstanding PSUs of the Predecessor Company were deemed cancelled.

[5] In connection with the restructuring and support agreement, dated as of August 18, 2020, by and between the Predecessor Company and certain beneficial owners and/or investment advisors or managers of discretionary funds, accounts or other entities for the holders of beneficial owners (the "Consenting Noteholders"), the 2020 PSUs were cancelled.

[6] The value of the PSU awards is estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The valuation consists of computing the fair value using CBL's simulated stock price as well as TMR for each performance period. The award is modeled as a contingent claim in that the expected return on the underlying shares is risk-free and the rate of discounting the payoff of the award is also risk-free.

[7] The value of the PSU awards is estimated on the date of grant using a Monte Carlo simulation model. The valuation consists of computing the fair value using CBL's simulated stock price as well as TSR over a three-year performance period. The award is modeled as a contingent claim in that the expected return on the underlying shares is risk-free and the rate of discounting the payoff of the award is also risk-free. The weighted-average fair value per share related to the 2020 PSUs classified as equity consists of 2,131,245 shares at a fair value of $0.88 (which relate to relative TSR) and 1,065,463 shares at fair value of $0.75 per share (which relate to absolute TSR).

[8] The risk-free interest rate was based on the yield curve on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities in effect as of the valuation date, which is the grant date listed above.

[9] The risk-free interest rate was based on the yield curve on zero-coupon U.S. Treasury securities in effect as of the valuation date, which is the respective grant date listed above.

[10] The computation of expected volatility was based on the historical volatility of the share prices of comparable, publicly traded companies and given the Company's risk profile and leverage relative to the comparable, publicly traded companies. The Company's historical volatility was not relied upon given the Company's limited trading history since the Effective Date.

[11] The computation of expected volatility was based on a blend of the historical volatility of CBL's shares of common stock based on annualized daily total continuous returns over a five-year period for the 2020 PSUs and implied volatility data based on the trailing month average of daily implied volatilities implied by stock call option contracts that were both closest to the terms shown and closest to the money.

Reorganization Chapter11 [Line Items]
Fresh-start reporting, description		Upon emergence from bankruptcy, the Company qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting in accordance with ASC 852, which resulted in the Company becoming a new entity for financial reporting purposes because (1) the holders of the then existing common shares of the Predecessor received less than 50 percent of the new shares of common stock of the Successor outstanding upon emergence and (2) the reorganization value of the Company’s assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plan was less than the total of all post-petition liabilities and allowed claims. The Company elected to apply fresh start accounting using a convenience date of October 31, 2021. Management evaluated and concluded that the events on November 1, 2021 were not material to the Company’s financial reporting on both a quantitative and qualitative basis.
