ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.
On September 18, 2001, Price Enterprises, Inc., a Maryland
corporation ("Enterprises"), completed a merger with Legacy. The stock-for-stock
merger was completed pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of
March 21, 2001 (the "Merger Agreement"), among Enterprises, PEI Merger Sub,
Inc., a Maryland corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Enterprises ("Merger
Sub"), and Legacy, providing for the merger of Merger Sub with and into Legacy
(the "Merger"). Upon completion of the Merger, Legacy became a wholly owned
subsidiary of Enterprises and the combined company, Price Legacy, issued an
aggregate of approximately 41,029,284 shares of Price Legacy Common Stock to the
stockholders of Legacy and assumed Legacy's outstanding options. Pursuant to the
Merger Agreement, each share of Legacy common stock, par value $0.01 per share
(the "Legacy Common Stock"), was exchanged for 0.6667 of a share of Price Legacy
Common Stock.
In connection with the Merger, Mr. Sabin acquired 2,608,207
shares of Price Legacy Common Stock and options to acquire 28,668 shares of
Price Legacy Common Stock in exchange for 3,912,120 shares of Legacy Common
Stock and options to acquire 43,000 shares of Legacy Common Stock beneficially
owned by him as of the effective date of the Merger.

for investment purposes. Mr. Sabin has no present plans or proposals that relate
to or would result in any of the actions described in subparagraphs (a) through

such plans).

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
(a)-(b) Mr. Sabin beneficially owns an aggregate of 2,636,875
shares of Price Legacy Common Stock. These shares represent approximately 6.5%
of the outstanding shares of Price Legacy Common Stock, based on 40,772,179
shares of Price Legacy Common Stock outstanding as of September 19, 2001, as
reported in Price Legacy's Current Report on Form 8-K (File No. 0-20449) filed
with the SEC on September 19, 2001. Mr. Sabin has sole voting and dispositive
power with respect to such shares.

In 1998, Legacy loaned Mr. Sabin, in connection with his

stock (an aggregate amount of approximately $3.6 million). This loan bears
interest at the rate of 7.0% per annum, matures in 2003 and was secured by
shares of Legacy Common Stock held by Mr. Sabin. In connection with the Merger,
Legacy entered into an Asset Contribution Agreement with Excel Legacy Holdings,
Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Legacy ("Legacy
Holdings"), effective as of September 10, 2001, pursuant to which Legacy
transferred the debt obligation of Mr. Sabin to Legacy Holdings. As of September
18, 2001, Mr. Sabin owed Legacy Holdings approximately $4.3 million secured by
approximately 1,016,949 shares of Price Legacy Common Stock acquired by Mr.
Sabin in the Merger.
Except for the agreements listed in Item 7, which are
incorporated by reference herein, to the knowledge of Mr. Sabin, there are no
contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise)
between him and any other person with respect to any securities of Price Legacy,
including, but not limited to, transfer or voting of any of the securities,
finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option arrangements, puts or calls,
guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding
of proxies.
