CAUTIONARY STATEMENT RELEVANT TO FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION OR THE PURPOSE
OF THE "SAFE HARBOR" PROVISIONS OF THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT
OF 1995

This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains "forward-looking statements", such
as information relating to the Company's growth strategy, projects targeted for
development or under construction, liquidity and capital resources, and
compliance with environmental laws and regulations. Such statements are subject
to certain risks and uncertainties which could cause actual results to differ
materially, including, but not limited to, those set forth below. Readers are
cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements,
which, unless otherwise expressly indicated, speak only as of December 31, 2000.
The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly revise these forward-looking
statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date hereof or
to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS.

FORMATION OF THE COMPANY

CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. (the "Company") is a self-managed,
self-administered, fully-integrated real estate company which is engaged in the
ownership, operation, marketing, management, leasing, expansion, development,
redevelopment, acquisition and financing of regional malls and community and
neighborhood centers. The Company was incorporated on July 13, 1993 under the
laws of the State of Delaware to acquire an interest in substantially all of the
real estate properties owned by CBL & Associates, Inc. and its affiliates
("CBL") and to provide a public vehicle for the expansion of CBL's shopping
center business.

The Company conducts substantially all of its business through CBL &
Associates Limited Partnership, a Delaware Limited Partnership (the "Operating
Partnership"), in which the Company owns an indirect 68.0% interest and of which
the Company's wholly-owned subsidiary is the sole general partner. To comply
with certain technical requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code") applicable to Real Estate Investment Trusts' ("REITs"), the
Company's property management and development activities, sales of peripheral
land and maintenance and security operations are carried out through CBL &
Associates Management, Inc. (the "Management Company").

On November 3, 1993, the Company completed the initial public offering (the
"Offering") of 15,400,000 shares of its common stock, par value $.01 per share
(the "Common Stock"). Simultaneously with the completion of the Offering, CBL
transferred to the Operating Partnership substantially all of CBL's interests in
its real estate properties and its management and development operations in
exchange for an interest in the Operating Partnership. CBL also acquired an
additional interest in the Operating Partnership for a cash payment.

The Offering and the application of proceeds therefrom, including the
Operating Partnership's acquisition of certain property interests, and the
contribution by CBL of property interests to the Operating Partnership, are
referred to herein as the "Formation."

In September 1995, the Company completed a follow-on offering of 4,163,500
shares of its Common Stock at $20.625 per share. CBL purchased 150,000 of these
shares.

In January 1997, the Company completed a follow-on offering of 3,000,000
shares of its Common Stock at $26.125 per share. CBL purchased 55,000 of these
shares.


3


In June 1998, the Company completed a public offering of 2,875,000 shares
of 9% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Series A Preferred
Stock") at a price to the public of $25.00 per share. The net proceeds of $70
million were used to repay variable rate indebtedness incurred in the Company's
development and acquisition programs.

After giving effect to the above transactions, at December 31, 2000 CBL
(including interests held by former executives) held a 25.5% limited partner
interest in the Operating Partnership, the Company held a 68.0% general and
limited partner interest in the Operating Partnership and third parties held a
6.5% limited partner interest. In addition, CBL holds approximately 2.0 million
of the outstanding shares of Common Stock for a total ownership share of 30.9%.


On September 25, 2000, the Company entered into a series of agreements with
Jacobs Realty Investors Limited Partnership and certain of its affiliates and
partners ("Jacobs") pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire from Jacobs
a portfolio of 21 malls and 2 associated centers for an aggregate consideration
of approximately $1.3 billion. The transaction closed on January 31, 2001.
Additionally, in a separate transaction, the Company acquired the remaining 50%
interest in Madison Square Mall as of January 31, 2001. In connection with these
transactions, the Operating Partnership issued approximately 12.7 million
special common units of the Operating Partnership ("SCUs"), representing in the
aggregate a 25.48% limited partner interest in the Operating Partnership.
Additionally, in connection with these transactions, the Operating Partnership
incurred or assumed an aggregate $ 865.5 million of additional indebtedness.
After giving effect to this transaction, CBL (including interests held by former
executives) held a total 22.9% ownership interest in the Company and the
Operating Partnership, the Company held a 50.8% general and limited partner
interest in the Operating Partnership and Richard E. Jacobs and his affiliates
held a 23.0% limited partner interest in the Operating Partnership.

GENERAL

The Company owns interests in a portfolio of properties, which as of
December 31, 2000 consisted of 30 enclosed regional malls (the "Malls"), 16
associated centers (the "Associated Centers"), each of which is part of a
regional shopping mall complex, and 72 independent community and neighborhood
shopping centers (the "Community Centers"). Except for eleven Malls, three
Associated Centers and four Community Centers which were acquired from third
parties, each of these properties were developed by CBL or the Company.

Additionally, as of December 31, 2000 the Company owned two regional Malls,
one office building, one neighborhood shopping center and one mall expansion
currently under construction (the "Construction Properties"). The Company also
owned as of December 31, 2000 options to acquire certain shopping center
development sites (the "Development Properties").

The Company also owned, as of December 31, 2000, mortgages (the
"Mortgages") on community and neighborhood shopping centers owned by non-CBL
affiliates. The Mortgages were granted in connection with sales by CBL of
certain properties previously developed by CBL. The Company also owns an
interest in a three-story office building in Chattanooga, Tennessee, a portion
of which serves as the Company's headquarters (the "Office Building"). The
Malls, Associated Centers, Community Centers, Construction Properties,
Development Properties, Mortgages and Office Building (but without taking into
account any of the properties acquired in the Jacobs transaction) are
collectively referred to herein as the "Properties" and individually as a
"Property".

As of December 31, 2000 the Company had also entered into standby purchase
agreements with third-party developers for the construction, development and
potential ownership of two community centers in Texas (the "Co-Development
Projects"). The developers have utilized these standby purchase agreements as
additional security for their lenders to fund the construction of the
Co-Development Projects. The standby purchase agreements for each of the
Co-Development Projects require the Company to purchase the related
Co-Development Project upon such Co-Development Project meeting certain
completion requirements and rental levels. In return for its commitment to
purchase a Co-Development Project pursuant to a standby purchase agreement, the
Company receives a fee as well as a participation interest in each
Co-Development Project. The outstanding amount of standby purchase agreements at
December 31, 2000 is $51.4 million.



4


The Company and the Operating Partnership generally own a 100% interest in
the Properties. With two exceptions, where the Company and the Operating
Partnership own less than a 100% interest in a Property, the Operating
Partnership is the sole general partner, managing general partner or managing
member of the property partnership or limited liability company which owns such
Property (each a "Property Partnership"). For one Mall and its Associated
Center, affiliates of the Operating Partnership are non-managing general
partners in the two applicable Property Partnerships.

For a full description of the Properties, see Item 2 -- "Properties."

The Company's executive offices are located at 6148 Lee Highway, Suite 300,
Chattanooga, Tennessee 37421-6511. The telephone number at this address is (423)
855-0001.

MANAGEMENT AND OPERATION OF PROPERTIES

Management Company

The Company is self-managed and self-administered. To comply with certain
technical requirements of the Code, the Company's property management and
development activities, sales of peripheral land and maintenance and security
operations are carried out through the Management Company.

The Operating Partnership holds 100% of the preferred stock and 5% of the
common stock of the Management Company. The remaining 95% of the common stock is
held by Charles Lebovitz, his family and his associates. Substantially all of
CBL's asset management, property management and leasing and development
operations, including CBL's executive, property, financial, legal and
administrative personnel, were transferred to the Management Company as part of
the Formation. The Management Company manages all of the Properties (except for
Governor's Square and Governor's Plaza in Clarksville, Tennessee -- see below)
under a management agreement that may be terminated at any time by the Operating
Partnership upon 30 days written notice. In addition, the Management Company
manages certain properties owned by CBL that were not transferred to the Company
in the Formation as well as certain shopping centers owned by non-CBL
affiliates. Through its ownership of the Management Company's preferred stock,
the Operating Partnership enjoys substantially all of the economic benefits of
the Management Company's business. Requirements set forth in the Management
Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, state that a
majority of the Management Company's board of directors are required to be
independent of CBL. From November 1993 to the current date, the board of
directors of the Management Company has consisted of seven of the members of the
Company's board of directors, including four of the Company's independent
directors.

On-Site Management

The on-site property management functions at the Malls include leasing,
management, data processing, rent collection, project bookkeeping, budgeting,
marketing, and promotion. Each Mall, for itself and its Associated Centers, has
an on-site property manager who oversees the on-site staff and an on-site
marketing director who oversees the marketing program for that Mall. District
managers, most of whom are located at the Company's headquarters, oversee the
leasing and operations at a majority of the Community Centers. The on-site Mall
managers are experienced managers with training in mall management.


5


Virtually all operating activities of the Company are supported by a
computer software system which is designed to provide management with operating
data necessary to make informed business decisions on a timely basis. The
Company has a program of on-going upgrades to hardware and software that support
the accounting and management information system. The Company also maintains a
web site to publish integrated information on the world wide web about the
Company and the properties. These systems were developed to more efficiently
assist management in efforts to market the properties, maintain management
quality, enhance investor relations and communications and enhance tenant
relations while minimizing operating expenses. Retail sales analysis, leasing
information, budget controls, accounts receivable/payable, operating expense
variance reports and income analysis are continually available to management.
Through these systems management also has available information that facilitates
the development and monitoring of budgets and other relevant information.

Management pursues periodic preventative property maintenance programs,
which encompass paving, roofing, HVAC and general improvements to the
Properties' common areas. The on-site property managers oversee all such work in
accordance with approved budgets with the coordination of, and reporting to home
office management.

Governor's Square

Governor's Square and Governor's Plaza were the only Properties in the
Company's portfolio on December 31, 2000 in which the Company was not the sole
general partner or managing general partner. Governor's Square is owned by a
Property Partnership, the managing general partner of which is a non-CBL
affiliate which owns a 47.5% interest in the Mall. The Company is a non-managing
general partner of Governor's Plaza. Although the managing general partner of
this partnership controls the timing of distributions of cash flow, the
Company's approval is required for certain major decisions, including permanent
financing, refinancing and sale of all or substantially all of the partnership's
assets. Property management services, including accounting, auditing,
maintenance, promotional programs, leasing, collection and insurance, are
performed by a property manager affiliated with the non-CBL managing general
partner for which such property manager receives a fee.

EMPLOYEES

The Company, through the Management Company, currently employs
approximately 560 full time and 517 part time persons. None of these employees
is currently represented by any union. The Company does not have any employees
other than its statutory officers.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

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, and the presence of such substances, or the
failure to promptly remediate such substances, may adversely affect the owner's
or operator's ability to 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 ("ACMs") in the event of
demolition or certain renovations or remodeling. Certain laws regarding ACMs
require building owners and lessees, among other things, to notify and train
certain employees working in areas known or presumed to contain ACMs. Certain
laws also impose liability for release of ACMs into the air and third parties
may seek recovery from owners or operators of real properties for personal
injury or property damage associated with ACMs. In connection with its ownership
and operation of the Properties, the Company, the Operating Partnership or the
relevant Property Partnership, as the case may be, may be potentially liable for
such costs or claims.



6



All of the Properties (excluding properties upon which the Company holds an
option to purchase but does not yet own) have been subject to Phase I
environmental assessments or updates of existing Phase I environmental
assessments by independent environmental consultants. 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 the Properties contain, or contained, underground storage tanks ("UST"s)
used for storing petroleum products or wastes typically associated with
automobile service or other operations conducted at the Properties. At Parkway
Place in Huntsville Alabama asbestos abatement will occur in portions of the
existing mall during demolition which will be completed by the end of the second
quarter of 2001. Certain Properties contain, or contained, dry-cleaning
establishments utilizing solvents. Where believed to be warranted, samples of
building materials or subsurface investigations were, or, will be undertaken. At
certain Properties, where warranted by the conditions, the Company has developed
and implemented an operations and maintenance program that establishes operating
procedures with respect to ACMs. The costs associated with the development and
implementation for such programs were not material.

Although there can be no assurances that such environmental liability does
not exist, other than Parkway Place none of the environmental assessments have
identified and the Company is not aware of any environmental liability with
respect to the Properties that the Company believes would have a material
adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations or
cash flows. Nevertheless, it is possible that the environmental assessments
available to the Company do not reveal all potential environmental liabilities,
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 the
Properties has not been or will not be affected by tenants and occupants of the
Properties, by the condition of properties in the vicinity of the Properties or
by third parties unrelated to the Company, the Operating Partnership or the
relevant Property Partnership. The existence of any such environmental liability
could have an adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, cash flow
and the funds available to the Company to pay dividends.

The Company has not recorded in its financial statements any material
liability in connection with environmental matters.

GENERAL RISKS OF THE COMPANY'S BUSINESS

General Factors Affecting Investments in Shopping Center Properties and
Effect of Economic and Real Estate Conditions

A shopping center's revenues and value may be adversely affected by a
number of factors, including: the national and regional economic climates; local
real estate conditions (such as an oversupply of retail space); perceptions by
retailers or shoppers of the safety, convenience and attractiveness of the
shopping center; and the willingness and ability of the shopping center's owner
to provide capable management and maintenance services. In addition, other
factors may adversely affect a shopping center's value without affecting its
current revenues, including: changes in governmental regulations, zoning or tax
laws; potential environmental or other legal liabilities; availability of
financing; and changes in interest rate levels. There are numerous shopping
facilities that compete with the Properties in attracting retailers to lease
space. In addition, retailers at the Properties face continued competition from
discount shopping centers, outlet malls, wholesale clubs, direct mail,
telemarketing, television shopping networks and shopping via the Internet.
Competition could adversely affect the Operating Partnership's revenues and
funds available for distribution to partners, which in turn will affect the
Company's revenues and funds available for distribution to stockholders.

7



Geographic Concentration

The Properties are located principally in the southeastern United States in
Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South
Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. Twenty Malls, fifteen Associated Centers,
fifty-four Community Centers and the Office Building are located in these
states. The Company's results of operations and funds available for distribution
to stockholders therefore will be subject generally to economic conditions in
the southeastern United States. As of December 31, 2000, the Properties located
in the southeastern United States accounted for 65.0% of the Company's total
assets, and provided 65.6% of the Company's total revenues for the year ended
December 31, 2000. After giving effect to the Jacobs transaction the properties
located in the southeastern United States account for 64.6% of the Company's
total assets.

Third Party Interests In Certain Properties

As of December 31, 2000 the Operating Partnership owned partial interests
in seven Malls, five Associated Centers, one Community Center, the Office
Building and two Malls under development. The Operating Partnership or an
affiliate of the Company is the managing general partner of the Property
Partnerships that own such Properties, except for the Governor's Square Mall and
its Associated Center, Governor's Plaza, in which affiliates of the Operating
Partnership are non-managing general partners.

Where the Operating Partnership serves as managing general partner of
Property Partnerships, it may have certain fiduciary responsibilities to the
other partners in those partnerships. In certain cases, the approval or consent
of the other partners is required before the Operating Partnership may sell,
finance, expand or make other significant changes in the operations of such
Properties. To the extent such approvals or consents are required, the Operating
Partnership may experience difficulty in, or may be prevented from implementing
its plans with respect to expansion, development, financing or other similar
transactions with respect to such Properties.

With respect to Governor's Square and Governor's Plaza, the Operating
Partnership does not have day-to-day operational control or control over certain
major decisions, including the timing and amount of distributions, which could
result in decisions by the managing general partner that do not fully reflect
the interests of the Company, including decisions relating to the standards that
the Company is required to satisfy in order to maintain its status as a real
estate investment trust for tax purposes. However decisions relating to sales,
expansions, dispositions of all or substantially all of the assets and
financings, are subject to approval by the Operating Partnership. On January 31,
2001, in the Jacobs transaction the Company acquired a non-managing interest in
Kentucky Oaks Mall. This investment will be subject to similar risks as the
investments in Governor's Square and Governor's Plaza.

Dependence on Significant Properties

Hamilton Place Mall in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Coolsprings Galleria in
Nashville, Tennessee and Burnsville Center in Minneapolis (Burnsville),
Minnesota and accounted for approximately 4.9%, 4.7% and 4.7%, respectively, of
total revenues of the Company for the period ended December 31, 2000. The
Company's financial position and results of operations will therefore be
disproportionately affected by the results experienced at these Properties.
Hamilton Place Mall was renovated in 1999 and the Company has started a
renovation of Burnsville Center in 2001. After giving effect to the Jacobs
transaction, Hanes Mall in Winston-Salem, North Carolina would represent the
largest revenue producing property in the combined portfolio. Hamilton Place,
Coolsprings Galleria and Burnsville Center would then represent the next most
significant revenue producing properties. The Company will begin a renovation of
Hanes Mall in 2001. Generally, a renovation is a pro action step taken to both
preserve and enhance a properties dominant position in its markets.

8



Dependence on Key Tenants

As of December 31, 2000, The Limited Inc. Stores (including Intimate
Brands, Inc.) maintained 121 stores in the Company's properties and in the year
ended December 31, 2000 accounted for approximately 6.5% of total revenues of
the Company. As of December 31, 2000, the Venator Group, Inc. (Champs Sports,
Footlocker, etc.) had 74 stores and in the year ended December 31, 2000,
accounted for 2.5% of the total revenues of the Company. As of December 31,
2000, The Gap, Inc. (The Gap, Gap Kids, Old Navy, etc.) had 36 stores and in the
year ended December 31, 2000, accounted for 2.1% of the total revenues of the
Company. Except for theses top three tenants no other tenant provided more than
2% of total revenues for the year ended December 31, 2000. After giving effect
to the Jacobs Transaction The Limited stores (including Intimate Brands, Inc)
would have 209 stores and would represent 9.0% of the mall store GLA in the
combined portfolio, the Venator Group, Inc. would have 142 stores and would
represent 3.0% of mall store GLA in the combined portfolio and The Gap, Inc.
would have 62 stores and represent 3.5% of mall store GLA. These tenants would
represent approximately the same proportion of total revenues after the
transaction as before. The loss or bankruptcy of any of these or other key
tenants could negatively affect the Company's financial position and results of
operations.


THE COMPANY'S STRATEGY FOR GROWTH

Management believes that per share growth in the Company's Funds from
Operations, as defined below, is one of the key factors in enhancing shareholder
value. Management also believes that Funds from Operations is a widely used
measure of the operating performance of REITs, and its consistent determination
provides a relevant basis for comparison among REITs. It is the objective of the
Company's management to achieve growth in Funds from Operations through the
aggressive management of the Company's existing Properties, the expansion and
renovation of existing Properties, the development of new properties, and select
acquisitions. Funds from Operations can also be affected by external factors,
such as inflation, fluctuations in interest rates or changes in general economic
conditions, which are beyond the control of the Company's management.

"Funds from Operations" is defined by the Company as net income (loss)
before property depreciation, other non-cash items, gains or losses on sales of
real estate assets and gains or losses on investments in marketable securities.
The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") has
clarified the definition of Funds from Operations to include all operating
results - recurring and non-recurring - except those results defined as
"extraordinary items" under accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States. The Company implemented this clarification in the first quarter
of 2000 and no longer adds back to FFO the development costs charged to net
income. This amount was $127,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. For
comparative purposes, the Company has recomputed its 1999 FFO to exclude the
add-back of development costs charged to net income of $1,674,000. The cost of
interest rate caps and finance costs on the Company's lines of credit are
amortized and included in interest expense and, therefore, reduces Funds from
Operations. Funds from Operations also includes the Company's share of Funds
from Operations in unconsolidated properties and excludes minority interests'
share of Funds from Operations in consolidated properties. The Company excludes
outparcel sales from its Funds from Operations calculation, even though the
NAREIT definition allows their inclusion. Funds from Operations does not
represent cash flow from operations as defined by generally accepted accounting
principals ("GAAP") and is not necessarily indicative of cash available from
operations to fund all cash flow needs and should not be considered an
alternative to net income (loss) for purposes of evaluating the Company's
operating performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.

The Company classifies its regional malls into two categories - stabilized
malls ("Stabilized Malls") which have completed their initial lease-up and new
malls ("New Malls") which are in their initial lease-up phase or are being
redeveloped. At December 31, 2000, the New Mall category was comprised of
Springdale Mall in Mobile, Alabama which was acquired in September 1997 and
which is currently being redeveloped and retenanted; Bonita Lakes Mall in
Meridian, Mississippi which opened in October 1997; Parkway Place Mall in
Huntsville, Alabama which was acquired in December, 1998 and which is being
redeveloped and Arbor Place in Atlanta (Douglasville), Georgia, which opened in
October 1999.

9



Specifically, the Company has implemented its objective of growing its
Funds from Operations and will continue to do so by:


o Acquiring existing retail properties where cash flow can be enhanced
by improved management, leasing, redevelopment and expansion.


-- On September 25, 2000, the Company agreed to acquire from Jacobs
interests in twenty-one malls and two associated centers. The
transaction closed on January 31, 2001. The total gross leasable
area of the twenty-three properties is 19.2 million square feet,
or an average gross leasable area of 914,000 square feet per
mall. The gross leasable area of Mall Stores is approximately 5.9
million square feet. The malls are located in middle markets
predominantly in the Southeast and the Midwest. Following is

========== =========

- -----------

(1) Includes improved outparcels acquired in the transaction.
(2) Annual sales per square foot for the year ended December 31, 1999.
(3) Occupancy as of December 31, 2000.
(4) Represents two Dillard's stores.
(5) Vacant Anchor Store.
(6) Includes Associated Center.



- On January 31, 2001, the Company acquired the 50%
interest in Madison Square Mall in Huntsville, Alabama
not owned by the Company for total consideration of
603,344 special common units in the Operating
Partnership(SCUs) and the assumption of $23.8 million
of non-recourse mortgage debt.

o Maximizing the cash flow from its existing portfolio of Malls,
Associated Centers and Community Centers, and other retail
complexes through aggressive leasing, management, and
marketing, including:

- an active leasing strategy which seeks to increase
occupancy. At December 31, 2000, the occupancy at the
Stabilized Malls, New Malls, Associated Centers, and
Community Centers was 94.5%, 90.4%, 94.9%, and 97.8%,
respectively, as compared to occupancies of 94.5%,
91.8%, 93.2%, and 97.7%, respectively, at December 31,
1999 (excluding, from both years, Parkway Place which
is under redevelopment);

- expanded merchandising, marketing and promotional
activities, with the goal of enhancing tenant sales and
thereby increasing percentage rents. Mall store sales
per square foot for the year ended December 31, 2000
were relatively the same at the Stabilized Malls
compared with the year ended December 31, 1999;

- increased base rents as tenant leases expire,
renegotiation of leases and negotiation of terminations
of leases of under performing retailers. At December
31, 2000 average base rents per square foot at the
Malls, Associated Centers, and Community Centers was
$21.57, $9.88, and $8.85, respectively, as compared to
average base rents per square foot of $20.68, $9.78,
and $8.32, respectively, at December 31, 1999;


11


- control of operating costs. Occupancy costs as a
percentage of sales at the Stabilized Malls increased
slightly to 11.9% for the year ended December 31, 2000
as compared to 11.5% for the year ended December 31,
1999 (excluding acquisition malls from year of
acquisition).

o Expanding and renovating existing properties to maintain their
competitive position.

- Most of the Malls were designed to allow for expansion
and growth through the addition of new department
stores or other large retail stores as anchors
("Anchors"). Twenty-four of the thirty Malls have
undergone expansion or renovation since their opening,
and all of the non-acquired Malls have been either
built or renovated in the last 10 years. Three of the
Malls had available Anchor pads at December 31, 2000.
Twenty existing Anchors at eleven Malls have expansion
potential at their existing stores. During 2000, the
Company renovated and expanded Asheville Mall in
Asheville, North Carolina and Meridian Mall in Lansing
(Okemos), Michigan and expanded Springdale Mall in
Mobile, Alabama. The Company also began construction of
a food court at Georgia Square Mall in Athens, Georgia.
During 2001, the Company will continue to expand and
re-develop Springdale Mall in Mobile, Alabama and
complete the expansion of Meridian Mall in Lansing
(Okemos), Michigan. The Company will also begin the
renovation of Burnsville Center in
Minneapolis(Burnsville), Minnesota and three malls
acquired in the Jacobs transaction: Hanes Mall in
Winston-Salem North Carolina; Fashion Square Mall in
Saginaw, Michigan and Cary Towne Center in Cary, North
Carolina.

- In the Community Center and Associated Center
portfolios, the Company renovated three Community
Centers, and expanded two Community Centers. In 2001,
the Company plans to expand two Community Centers,
renovate at least two Community Centers and redevelop a
vacant theater location in one Associated Center.

o Developing new retail properties with profitable returns on
capital, leading to growth in the future.

12



- In 2000, the Company opened three Mall expansions, one
Associated Center, two Community Centers and two
Community Center expansions. Summary information
concerning these properties is set forth below.

- In addition to the Construction Properties as of
December 31, 2000, the Company was pursuing the
development of a number of sites which the Company
believed were viable for future development as malls
and community and neighborhood shopping centers.
Regional mall development sites were being pursued in
Georgia, Mississippi and South Carolina and Community
and Associated Center shopping center sites were being
pursued in Florida, Tennessee, Pennsylvania and
Virginia.

- In general, the Company seeks out development
opportunities in middle-market trade areas that it
believes are under-serviced by existing retail
facilities, have demonstrated improving demographic
trends or otherwise afford an opportunity for effective
market penetration and competitive presence.

14


RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE COMPANY'S GROWTH STRATEGY

In connection with the implementation of this growth strategy, the Company
and the Operating Partnership will incur various risks including the risk that
development or expansion opportunities explored by the Company and the Operating
Partnership may be abandoned; the risk that construction costs of a project may
exceed original estimates, possibly making the project not profitable; the risk
that the Company and the Operating Partnership may not be able to refinance
construction loans which are generally with full recourse to the Company and the
Operating Partnership; the risk that occupancy rates and rents at a completed
project will not meet projections, and will therefore be insufficient to make
the project profitable; and the need for anchor, mortgage lender and property
partner approvals for certain expansion activities. In the event of an
unsuccessful development project, the Company's and the Operating Partnership's
loss could exceed its investment in the project.

The Company has in the past elected not to proceed with certain development
projects and anticipates that it will do so again from time to time in the
future. If the Company elects not to proceed with a development opportunity, the
development costs associated therewith ordinarily will be charged against income
and Funds From Operations for the then-current period. Any such charge could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations for the
period in which the charge is taken.

COMPETITION

There are numerous shopping facilities that compete with the Properties in
attracting retailers to lease space. The Malls are generally located in
middle-markets. Management believes that the Malls have strong competitive
positions because they generally are the only or largest enclosed malls within
their respective trade areas. In addition, retailers at the Properties face
continued competition from discount shopping centers, outlet malls, wholesale
clubs, direct mail, telemarketing, television shopping networks and shopping via
the Internet. Competition could adversely affect the Operating Partnership's
revenues and funds available for distributions to partners, which in turn will
affect the Company's revenues and funds available for distribution to
stockholders.

SEASONALITY

The Company's business is somewhat seasonal in nature with tenant sales
achieving the highest levels during the fourth quarter because of the holiday
season. 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 the entire year.

QUALIFICATION AS A REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST

The Company has elected to be taxed as real estate investment trust under
the Code, commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1993, and will
seek to maintain such status. As a qualified real estate investment trust, the
Company generally will not be subject to Federal income tax to the extent it
distributes at least 90% of its current year real estate investment trust
taxable income to its shareholders. If the Company fails to qualify as a real
estate investment trust in any taxable year, the Company will be subject to
Federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its
taxable income at regular corporate rates.

INSURANCE

The Operating Partnership carries comprehensive liability, fire, extended
coverage and rental loss insurance covering all the Properties, with policy
specifications and insured limits customarily carried for similar properties.
Management believes that the Properties are adequately insured in accordance
with industry standards.

15


ITEM 2. PROPERTIES.

MALLS

Each of the Malls is an enclosed regional shopping complex. Each Mall
generally has at least three Anchors which own or lease their stores and
numerous non-anchor stores with GLA less than 30,000 square feet ("Mall
Stores"), most of which are national or regional retailers, located along
enclosed malls connecting the Anchors. At most of the Malls, additional
freestanding restaurants and retail stores are located on the periphery of the
Mall complex. These freestanding stores are, in most cases, owned by their
occupants. As of December 31, 2000, thirteen of the Mall complexes included one
or more Associated Centers.

The total GLA of the 30 Malls owned on December 31, 2000 was approximately
22.6 million square feet or an average GLA of approximately 754,000 square feet
per Mall. Mall Store GLA was 8,033,000 square feet including leased
free-standing buildings at December 31, 2000. The Company wholly owned all but
seven of such Malls and managed all but one of them.

In the years ended December 31, 1998, 1999 and 2000, Mall revenues
represented approximately 74.9%, 76.9% and 77.3%, respectively, of total
revenues from the Company's Properties.

Occupancy of mall stores in the Stabilized Malls ("Stabilized Mall Stores")
was 94.5% at December 31, 1999, and at December 31, 2000.

In the years ended December 31, 1998, 1999 and 2000, average Stabilized
Mall Store sales per square foot were approximately $272.00, $283.75 and
$283.00, respectively (computed using a monthly weighted average).

Average base rent per square foot at the Mall Stores increased from $20.73
at December 31, 1999 to $21.57 at December 31, 2000.

Occupancy costs as a percentage of sales for tenants in the Stabilized
Malls (excluding acquisition malls from the year of acquisition) were 11.1%,
11.5% and 11.9% for the years ended December 31, 1998, 1999, and 2000,
respectively.

The Malls are generally located in middle-markets. Management believes that
the Malls have strong competitive positions because they generally are the only,
or the dominant enclosed malls within their respective trade areas. Trade areas
have been identified by management based upon a number of sources of
information, including the location of other malls, publicly available
population information, customer surveys, surveys of customer automobile license
plates, as well as ZIP codes and third-party market studies.

The three largest revenue-producing Malls in 2000 were Hamilton Place Mall,
Coolsprings Galleria and Burnsville Center. Hamilton Place is located on a
187-acre site in Chattanooga, Tennessee and represented, as of December 31,
2000, 3.4% of the Properties' total GLA, 3.6% of total Mall Store GLA and 4.9%
of total revenues from the Company's Properties. Coolsprings Galleria is located
on a 150-acre site in Nashville, Tennessee and represented, as of December 31,
2000, 3.4% of the Properties' total GLA, 3.6% of total Mall Store GLA and 4.7%
of total revenues from the Company's Properties. Burnsville Center is located in
the Suburbs of Minneapolis, Minnesota in Burnsville and represented, as of
December 31, 2000, 3.1% of the Properties' total GLA, 3.9% of total Mall Store
GLA and 4.7% of total revenues from the Company's Properties.

Twenty-four of the thirty Malls owned on December 31, 2000 had undergone an
expansion or remodeling since their opening, and all but four of the Malls were
either built, renovated or expanded in the last 10 years one of which, Parkway
Place in Huntsville, Alabama is currently scheduled for

16


demolition and redevelopment. In 2000, the Company renovated and expanded
Asheville Mall in Asheville, North Carolina and Meridian Mall in Lansing,
Michigan. The Company will complete the expansion of Meridian Mall in 2001 and
will begin the renovation of Burnsville Center in Minneapolis (Burnsville),
Minnesota and three malls in the Jacobs transaction: Hanes Mall in
Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Fashion Square in Saginaw, Michigan and Cary
Towne Center in Cary, North Carolina. At December 31, 2000 three of the Malls
have available Anchor pads providing expansion potential totaling approximately
405,700 buildable square feet. At December 31, 2000 twenty existing Anchors at
eleven Malls have aggregate expansion potential at their existing stores of
approximately 473,000 buildable square feet.

The land underlying the Malls owned on December 31, 2000 was owned in fee
simple in all cases, except for Walnut Square, WestGate Mall, St. Clair Square,
Bonita Lakes Mall, Meridian Mall and Stroud Mall which were each subject to
long-term ground leases for all or a portion of their land.

The table on the following page sets forth certain information for each of
the Malls as of December 31, 2000.

Anchors. Anchors are a critical factor in a Mall's success because the
public's identification with a property typically focuses on its Anchors. Mall
Anchors generally are department stores whose merchandise appeals to a broad
range of shoppers. Although the Malls derive a smaller percentage of their
operating income from Anchor stores than from Mall Stores, strong Anchors play
an important part in generating customer traffic and making the Malls desirable
locations for Mall Store tenants.

Anchors either own their stores together with the land under them,
sometimes with adjacent parking areas, or enter into long-term leases with
respect to their stores at rental rates that are significantly lower than the
rents charged to tenants of Mall Stores. Anchors account for approximately 7.1%
of the total revenues from the Company's Properties. Each Anchor which owns its
own store has entered into a reciprocal easement agreement with the Company
covering, among other things, operating covenants, reciprocal easements,
property operations, initial construction and future expansions.

As of December 31, 2000, the Malls had a total of 135 Anchors and one
vacant Anchor store at Asheville Mall. The following table indicates all Mall
Anchors and sets forth the aggregate number of square feet owned or leased by
Anchors in the Malls as of December 31, 2000.

MALL STORES. As of December 31, 2000, the Malls had approximately 4,277
Mall Stores. National or regional chains (excluding individually franchised
stores) leased approximately 79.6% of the occupied Mall Store GLA. Although Mall
Stores occupied only 35.5% of total Mall GLA, the Malls derived approximately
88.3% of their revenue from Mall Stores for the year ended December 31, 2000.

Among the companies with the largest representation among Mall Stores are:
The Limited, Inc./Intimate Brands, Inc. stores (The Limited, Limited Too,
Express, Lerner New York, Lane Bryant, Structure, Victoria's Secret, and Bath
and Body Works) and Venator Group, Inc. (Footlocker, Lady Footlocker and Champs
Sports Stores). As of December 31, 2000, The Limited, Inc.'s and Intimate
Brands, Inc.'s 121 stores accounted for 10.3% of total mall leased GLA and 6.7%
of total revenues from the Company's Properties. As of December 31, 2000 Venator
Group, Inc. accounted for 2.9% of total mall leased GLA and 2.5% of total

leased GLA and no single Mall Store retailer accounted for more than 6.7% of
total revenues from the Company's Properties for the year ended December 31,
2000.

Cost of Occupancy. Management believes that in order to maximize the
Company's Funds from Operations, tenants in Mall Stores must be able to operate
profitably. A major factor contributing to tenant profitability is the tenant's
cost of occupancy.

ASSOCIATED CENTERS

The sixteen Associated Centers owned at December 31, 2000 were each part of
a Mall complex and generally had one or two Anchor tenants and various smaller
tenants. Anchor tenants in these centers included such retailers as
Books-A-Million, Target, Toys "R" Us, TJ Maxx, and Goody's, which were category
dominant retailers that benefited from the regional draw of the Malls. The
Associated Centers also generally increase the draw to the total Mall complex.

Total leasable GLA of the sixteen Associated Centers was approximately 2.5
million square feet, including Anchors, or an average of approximately 156,000
square feet per center. As of December 31, 2000, 94.9% of total leasable GLA at
the Associated Centers was occupied. During 2000 the Company opened one
Associated Center in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

In the years ended December 31, 1998, 1999, and 2000, revenues from the
Associated Centers represented approximately 3.9%, 3.7% and 4.1%, respectively,
of total revenues from the Company's Properties.

In the years ended December 31, 1998, 1999 and 2000, average tenant sales
per square foot at the Associated Centers were approximately $172, $184 and
$185, respectively.

Average base rent per square foot at the Associated Centers increased from
$9.78 at December 31, 1999 to $9.88 at December 31, 2000.

Each of the Associated Centers was developed by the Company, except for
WestGate Crossing, Village at Rivergate and Courtyard at Hickory Hollow which
were acquired in August 1997, July 1998 and July 1998, respectively. All of the
land underlying the Associated Centers is owned in fee simple except for Bonita
Crossing.

COMMUNITY AND POWER CENTERS

In addition to Mall development, the Company's development activities focus
on Community Centers, and power centers. Community Centers pose fewer
development risks than Malls because they have shorter development timetables
and lower up-front costs. Community Centers also afford the Company the
opportunity to meet the needs of retailers for whom a "convenience" type of
location is more appropriate and the needs of customers whose trade areas cannot
support a regional mall. Power centers are larger than other Community Centers,
with several large anchor stores which draw shoppers from a wider geographic
area.

The Company's Community Center developments in the 1980's were generally
anchored by supermarkets, and, in certain cases, by drug stores. Management's
current focus has expanded to include the development of larger centers,
anchored by mass merchandisers and department stores, while continuing the
development of smaller centers anchored by supermarkets and drug stores.
Recently completed Community Centers include centers in Richmond Virginia and
Spring Hill, Florida. Anchors at these new centers include, Home Depot, Sears,
Belk, Goody's and , Wal*Mart. During 2000, the Company sold thirteen Community
Centers for total proceeds of $51 million and totaling 799,000 square feet. The
proceeds were primarily used to retire debt. The Company also sold one Community
Center Jean Ribaut Square in Beaufort, South Carolina in February 2001. The net
proceeds of $5.8 million were placed in escrow in anticipation of a like-kind
exchange of properties under section 1031 of the Code.

Community Centers, other than power centers, range in size from 25,000
square feet to in excess of 286,000 square feet. Anchors in Community Centers
generally lease their store space and occupy 60-85% of a center's GLA. The
number of stores in a Community Center ranges from one to sixteen with an
average of seven stores per center.

The Company's two power centers, which were completed and opened in 1997
and 1998, average 786,000 square feet and have an average of nine major anchor
stores and additional small shop space ranging from 38,000 square feet to
136,000 square feet. The projects include expansion areas for additional major
retailers. These power centers are included in the Community Center

MORTGAGES

The Company owns certain Mortgages which were granted prior to the Offering
in connection with sales by CBL of properties which it had previously developed.

The Company holds fee mortgages on seven community centers, which mortgages
had, as of December 31, 2000, an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $7.2
million. Such mortgages entitle the Company to receive substantially all of such
properties' current cash flow in the form of periodic debt service payments. The
encumbered properties all opened between 1981 and 1984 and have one Anchor
vacancy.

In the years ended December 31, 1998, 1999, and 2000, revenues from the
Mortgages represented approximately 0.7%, 0.6%, and 0.3%, respectively, of total
revenues from the Company's Properties.

MORTGAGE DEBT AND RATIO TO TOTAL MARKET CAPITALIZATION

As of December 31, 2000, the Operating Partnership's proportionate share of
indebtedness of all Properties (whether or not consolidated for financial
statement reporting purposes, including the Construction Properties) was
approximately $1.452 billion. The Company's total market capitalization (the
aggregate market value of the Company's outstanding shares of Common and
Preferred Stock, assuming the full exchange of the limited partnership interests
in the Operating Partnership for Common Stock, plus the $1.452 billion total
debt of the Operating Partnership) as of December 31, 2000 was $2.4 billion.
Accordingly, the Company's debt to total market capitalization ratio as of
December 31, 2000 was 59.4%. The debt to total market capitalization ratio,
which is based upon the Company's proportionate share of consolidated and
unconsolidated indebtedness and market values of equity, differs from
debt-to-book capitalization ratios, which are based upon consolidated
indebtedness and book values.

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


The following discussion and analysis of the financial condition and
results of operations should be read in conjunction with CBL & Associates
Properties, Inc. Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto.

Information included herein may contain "forward-looking statements" within
the meaning of the federal securities laws. Such statements are inherently
subject to risks and uncertainties, many of which cannot be predicted with
accuracy and some of which might not even be anticipated. Future events and
actual results, financial and otherwise, may differ materially from the events
and results discussed in the forward-looking statements. We direct you to the
Company's other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and
elsewere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion of such risks and
uncertainties.

GENERAL BACKGROUND

On November 3, 1993, CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. (the "Company")
completed an initial public offering of 15,400,000 shares of common stock priced
at $19.50 per share (the "Offerings"). In connection with the Offerings, CBL &
Associates, Inc. and its affiliates contributed their interests in properties to
CBL & Associates Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership"). The Company
is indirectly the sole general partner and as of December 31, 2000, the majority
owner, of the Operating Partnership. As a result, the CBL & Associates
Properties, Inc. Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto reflect the
consolidated financial results of the Operating Partnership, which included at
December 31, 2000, the operations of a portfolio of properties consisting of 26
regional malls, 15 associated centers, two power centers, 70 community centers,
an office building, joint venture investments in four regional malls and one
associated center, and income from seven mortgages (the"Properties"). As of
December 31, 2000, the Operating Partnership had under construction two malls,
one community center, one office building, one mall expansion, and owns options
to acquire certain shopping center development sites. The consolidated financial
statements also include the results of CBL & Associates Management, Inc. (the
"Management Company").

The Company classifies its regional malls into two categories - stabilized
malls which have completed their initial lease-up and new malls which are in
their initial lease-up phase. As of December 31, 2000 the new mall category was
comprised of Springdale Mall in Mobile, Alabama, which was acquired in September
1997 and is being redeveloped and retenanted; Bonita Lakes Mall in Meridian,
Mississippi, which opened in October 1997; Parkway Place in Huntsville, Alabama,
which was acquired in December 1998 and is currently being redeveloped; and
Arbor Place Mall in Atlanta (Douglasville), Georgia, which opened in October
1999.

On September 25, 2000, the Company entered into a series of agreements with
Jacobs Realty Investors Limited Partnership and certain of its affiliates and
partners ("Jacobs") pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire from Jacobs
interests in 21 malls and two associated centers for total consideration of
approximately $1.3 billion. The transaction closed on January 31, 2001.
Additionally, in a separate transaction, the Company acquired the remaining 50%
interest in Madison Square Mall in Huntsville, Alabama. The purchase price was
comprised of $124.5 million in cash including closing costs of approximately $12
million; the assumption of $745.5 million in non-recourse mortgage debt; and the
issuance of approximately 12.2 million special common units (SCUs) in the
Operating Partnership. The cash portion was funded from a new $212 million
credit facility provided by a consortium of banks led by Wells Fargo. The
Company will close on the remainder of the Jacobs transaction in 2002, at which
time it will assume an additional $25.7 million of non-recourse mortgage debt
and issue an additional 499,733 SCUs.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

SALES

Mall shop sales, for those tenants who have reported, in the 26 stabilized
malls in the Company's portfolio, remained relatively the same on a comparable
per square foot basis as shown below:


Year Ended December 31,
----------------------------------
2000 1999
-------- -------

Sales per square foot $283.00 $283.75


Total sales volume in the mall portfolio, including new malls, increased
1.9% to $1.690 billion in 2000 from $1.659 billion in 1999.

The weighted average occupancy costs as a percentage of sales for the years
ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, for the stabilized malls (excluding
malls acquired in 1999 and 1998 from those years) were 11.9%, 11.5% and 11.1%,
respectively.


OCCUPANCY

Occupancy for the Company's overall portfolio increased, with a breakdown
by asset category as follows:


At December 31,
-------------------------------
2000 1999
----- -----

Stabilized malls 94.5% 94.5%
New malls (1) 90.4 91.8
Associated centers 94.9 93.2
Community centers 97.8 97.7
----- -----
Total portfolio 95.7% 95.6%

(1) Excludes Parkway Place which is under redevelopment.


AVERAGE BASE RENTS

Average base rents for the Company's three portfolio categories was as
follows:

LEASE ROLLOVERS

For spaces previously occupied, the Company achieved the following results
from rollover leasing for the year ended December 31, 2000, over and above the
base and percentage rent paid by the previous tenant:


Per Square Per Square
Foot Rent Foot Rent Percentage
Prior Lease (1) New Lease (2) Increase

Malls.............................. $23.36 $25.75 10.2%
Associated centers................. 9.88 11.09 12.2
Community centers.................. 10.34 11.53 11.5

(1) - Rental achieved for spaces previously occupied at the end of the lease including
percentage rent.
(2) - Average base rent over the term of the lease.



In 2000 and 1999, revenues from the malls represented 77.3% and 76.9%,
respectively, of total revenues from consolidated and unconsolidated properties;
revenues from associated centers represented 4.1% and 3.7%; revenues from
community centers represented 17.5% and 17.8%; and revenues from mortgages and
the office building represented 1.1% and 1.6%. Accordingly, revenues and results
of operations are disproportionately impacted by the malls' achievements.

The shopping center business is somewhat seasonal in nature with tenant
sales achieving the highest levels during the fourth quarter because of the
holiday season. 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 the entire year.


COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR 2000 TO THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR 1999

Total revenues in 2000 increased by $38.9 million, or 12.2%, to $356.5
million compared with $317.6 million in 1999. Of this increase, minimum rents
increased by $22.4 million, or 11.1%, to $225.5 million compared with $203.0
million in 1999, percentage rents increased by $1.4 million, or 19.1%, to $8.8
million compared with $7.4 million in 1999; other rents increased by $0.8
million, or 14.8%, to $6.2 million compared with $5.4 million in 1999; and
tenant reimbursements increased by $17.0 million, or 18.9%, to $106.8 million
compared with $89.8 million in 1999.

Approximately $22.3 million of the increase in revenues resulted from the
ten new centers opened or acquired during 1999 and 2000. The centers opened or
acquired in 1999 and contributing to 2000 increases are Arbor Place Mall in
Atlanta (Douglasville) Georgia; The Landing at Arbor Place in Atlanta
(Douglasville) Georgia; York Galleria, in York, Pennsylvania; Sand Lake Corner
in Orlando, Florida; and Fiddler's Run in Morganton, North Carolina, which were
sold in 2000. The six new centers opened or acquired in 2000 are fully described
in the Developments, Acquisitions and Expansions section of the annual report.
Improved occupancies and operations and increased rents in the Company's
operating portfolio generated approximately $21.8 million of the increased
revenues, with the largest increases derived from Rivergate Mall in Nashville,
Tennessee, and Meridian Mall in Lansing, Michigan. These increases were offset
by a decrease in revenues of $2.2 million from 13 community centers sold in 2000
and a decrease of $3.1 million in management and development fees relating to a
one time fee earned in the Company's co-development program in 1999.

Management, development and leasing fees decreased in 2000 by $3.6 million,
or 46.7%, to $4.2 million compared with $7.8 million in 1999. Most of the
decrease was due to a one-time fees totaling $3.1 million earned in the
co-development program in 1999. The balance of the decrease was due to the
reduction in continuing co-development fees. Interest and other income increased
in 2000 by $0.9 million, or 21.4%, to $5.1 million compared with $4.2 million in
1999. This increase resulted primarily from the ten new centers opened or
acquired over the past 24 months and interest income on the proceeds from
community center sales held in escrow during the year.

43

CBL & ASSOCIATS PROPERTIES, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Property operating expenses, including real estate taxes and maintenance
and repairs, increased in 2000 by $10.7 million, or 11.1%, to $106.9 million
compared with $96.2 million in 1999. This increase is primarily the result of
the ten new centers opened or acquired over the past 24 months. The Company's
cost recovery ratio, which includes redistribution of utilities, increased to
99.1% in 2000 compared with 93.3% in 1999 due to increases in occupancy at the
end of 1999 and continued through calendar year 2000.

Depreciation and amortization increased in 2000 by $7.1 million, or 13.2%,
to $60.6 million compared with $53.5 million in 1999. This increase resulted
primarily from depreciation and amortization on the ten new centers opened or
acquired over the past 24 months and the Company's capital investment in
operating properties.

Interest expense increased in 2000 by $12.1 million, or 14.7%, to $94.6
million compared with $82.5 million in 1999. This increase is primarily due to
increased interest expense on the ten new centers opened or acquired over the
past 24 months offset by reductions in interest expense on debt retired with the
proceeds from the sales of properties.

General and administrative expenses increased in 2000 by $1.6 million, or
9.6%, to $17.8 million compared with $16.2 million in 1999. A portion of this
increase was due to increases in general overhead in preparation to assume
management of The Richard E. Jacobs Group's interest's in 21 malls and two
associated centers that were subsequently acquired in January 2001.

Gain on sales of real estate assets was $16.0 million in 2000 compared with
$8.4 million in 1999. The majority of the gain in 2000 is from the $10.5 million
gain on 13 community centers sold in 2000. The centers sold were: Centerview
Plaza in China Grove, North Carolina; Clark's Pond in South Portland, Maine;
Dorchester Crossing in Charleston, South Carolina; Fiddler's Run in Morganton,
North Carolina; Genesis Square in Crossville, Tennessee; Hollins Plantation in
Roanoke, Virginia; Karns Korner in Knoxville, Tennessee; Lakeshore Station in
Gainsville, Georgia; Sparta Crossing in Sparta, Tennessee; Sterling Creek
Commons in Portsmouth, Virginia; Tyler Square in Radford, Virginia; University
Crossing in Pueblo, Colorado; and Wildwood Plaza in Salem, Virginia. Additional
gains were generated by outparcel and pad sales at two centers under development
in 2000, Creekwood Crossing in Bradenton, Florida and The Lakes Mall in
Muskegon, Michigan, as well as outparcel sales at Sand Lake Corners in Orlando,
Florida, which opened in 1999.


COMPARISON OF RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR 1999 TO THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
FOR 1998

Total revenues in 1999 increased by $63.0 million, or 24.7%, to $317.6
million compared with $254.6 million in 1998. Of this increase, minimum rents
increased by $36.4 million, or 21.8%, to $203.0 million compared with $166.6
million in 1998, percentage rents increased by $2.6 million, or 54.8%, to $7.4
million compared with $4.8 million in 1998, other rents increased by $1.4
million, or 35.8%, to $5.4 million compared with $4.0 million in 1998; and
tenant reimbursements increased by $15.9 million, or 21.6%, to $89.8 million
compared with $73.8 million in 1998.

Approximately $11.3 million of the increase in revenues resulted from the
five new centers opened or acquired during 1999, and $35.9 million of the
increase in revenues resulted from the ten new centers opened or acquired during
the past 24 months. The centers opened in 1998 and contributing to 1999
increases are Sterling Creek Commons in Portsmouth, Virginia, and 641,000 square
feet of expansions. The centers acquired in 1998 and contributing to 1999
increases are Stroud Mall in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania; Hickory Hollow Mall,
Rivergate Mall, Courtyard at Hickory Hollow, Village at Rivergate, and Lions
Head Village, all in Nashville, Tennessee; Meridian Mall in Lansing, Michigan;
and Janesville Mall in Janesville, Wisconsin. The five new centers opened or
acquired in 1999 are Arbor Place Mall in Atlanta (Douglasville), Georgia; The
Landing at Arbor Place in Atlanta (Douglasville), Georgia; Sand Lake Corners in
Orlando, Florida; and Fiddler's Run in Morganton, North Carolina. Fiddler's Run
was sold in March 2000 almost a year after it had opened. Improved occupancies
and operations and increased rents in the Company's operating portfolio
generated approximately $12.4 million of the increased revenues, with the
largest increases from Hamilton Place in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and St. Clair
Square in Fairview Heights, Illinois. New revenues of $3.4 million were from
one-time fees earned in the Company's co-development program.

CBL & ASSOCIATS PROPERTIES, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management, development and leasing fees increased in 1999 by $5.1 million,
or 188.9%, to $7.8 million compared with $2.7 million in 1998. Most of the
increase was due to one-time fees totaling $3.4 million earned in the
co-development program. The balance of the increase was provided from the
Company's managed properties and development operations. Interest and other
income increased in 1999 by $1.5 million, or 55.0%, to $4.2 million compared
with $2.7 million in 1998. This increase resulted primarily from the 15 new
centers opened or acquired over the past 24 months.

Property operating expenses, including real estate taxes and maintenance
and repairs, increased in 1999 by $16.0 million, or 20.0%, to $96.2 million
compared with $80.2 million in 1998. This increase is primarily the result of
the 15 new centers opened or acquired over the past 24 months. The Company's
cost recovery ratio increased to 93.3% in 1999 compared with 92.1% in 1998.

Depreciation and amortization increased in 1999 by $10.0 million, or 23.0%,
to $53.5 million compared with $43.5 million in 1998. This increase resulted
primarily from depreciation and amortization on the 15 new centers opened or
acquired over the past 24 months.

Interest expense increased in 1999 by $15.2 million, or 22.5%, to $82.5
million compared with $67.3 million in 1998. This increase is primarily due to
increased interest expense on the 15 new centers opened or acquired over the
past 24 months.

General and administrative expenses increased in 1999 by $4.4 million, or
36.9%, to $16.2 million compared with $11.8 million in 1998. This increase was
due to increases in state tax expense, payroll, and general overhead.

Gain on sales of real estate assets was $8.4 million in 1999 compared with
$4.2 million in 1998. The majority of the gain in 1999 is from outparcel and pad
sales at centers under development in 1999: Chesterfield Crossing in Richmond,
Virginia; Arbor Place Mall and The Landing at Arbor Place in Atlanta
(Douglasville), Georgia; and Sand Lake Corners in Orlando, Florida. The gain on
sales in 1999 also includes gain on the sale of two centers, North Park Plaza in
Richmond, Virginia, and a free-standing Regal Cinema in Jacksonville, Florida.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The principal uses of the Company's liquidity and capital resources have
historically been for property development, acquisitions, expansion and
renovation programs, and debt repayment. To maintain its qualification as a real
estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code, the Company currently
is required to distribute to its shareholders at least 90% of its "Real Estate
Investment Trust Taxable Income" as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the "Code").

As of December 31, 2000, the Company had $93.6 million available in
unfunded construction loans to be used for completion of construction projects
and replenishment of working capital previously used for construction.
Additionally, as of December 31, 2000, the Company had obtained revolving credit
lines and term loans totaling $240 million, of which $99.0 million was
available. Also, as a publicly traded company, the Company has access to capital
through both the public equity and debt markets. The Company has filed a shelf
registration statement authorizing shares of the Company's common stock,
preferred stock, and warrants to purchase shares of the Company's common stock
with an aggregate public offering price of up to $350 million, with $278 million
available as of December 31, 2000. The Company anticipates that the combination
of these sources will, for the foreseeable future, provide adequate liquidity to
enable it to continue its capital programs substantially as in the past and make
distributions to its shareholders in accordance with the Code's requirements
applicable to real estate investment trusts.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management expects to refinance the majority of the mortgage notes payable
maturing over the next five years with replacement loans.

The Company's capital structure at December 31, 2000, included property
specific mortgages, which are generally non-recourse, revolving lines of credit,
common stock, preferred stock, and a minority interest in the Operating
Partnership. The minority interest in the Operating Partnership represented the
25.5% ownership interest in the Operating Partnership held on December 31, 2000
by certain of the Company's current and former executive and senior officers .
Additionally, these current and former executive and senior officers and the
Company's directors own approximately 2.0 million shares of the outstanding
common stock of the Company, for a combined total interest in the Operating
Partnership on December 31, 2000 of approximately 30.9%. Ownership interests
issued to fund acquisitions in 1998 and 1999 represented on December 31, 2000 a
6.5% interest in the Operating Partnership. Assuming the exchange of all limited
partnership interests in the Operating Partnership for common stock, there would
have been approximately 36.9 million shares of common stock outstanding with a
market value of approximately $933.9 million at December 31, 2000 (based on the
closing price of the Company's common stock of $25.3125 per share on December
31, 2000). The Company's total market equity is $992.8 million at December 31,
2000, including 2.9 million shares of preferred stock (based on the closing
price of its preferred stock of $20.50 per share on December 31, 2000). The
Company's current and former executive and senior officers' ownership interests
had a market value of approximately $288.3 million at December 31, 2000.

Mortgage debt consists of debt on certain consolidated properties as well
as debt on four properties in which the Company owns non-controlling interests,
accounted for under the equity method of accounting. At December 31, 2000, the
Company's share of funded mortgage debt on its consolidated properties (adjusted
for minority investors' interests in seven properties) was $883.2 million and
its pro rata share of mortgage debt on unconsolidated properties (accounted for
under the equity method) was $42.8 million for total fixed-rate debt obligations
of $926.0 million with a weighted average interest rate of 7.5%. Consolidated
and unconsolidated variable-rate debt accounted for $525.6 million with a
weighted average interest rate of 7.2% (after application of swap instruments).
Total debt obligations amounted to $1.452 billion. Variable-rate debt accounted
for approximately 36.2% of the Company's total debt and 21.5% of its total
capitalization. Through the execution of interest rate swap agreements, the
Company has fixed the interest rates on $473.0 million of variable-rate debt at
a weighted average interest rate of 7.1%. Of the Company's remaining
variable-rate debt of $52.6 million, interest rate caps in place of $50.0
million leave $2.6 million of debt subject to variable rates on construction
properties and no debt subject to variable rates on operating properties. There
were no fees charged to the Company related to these swap agreements. The
Company's interest rate swap and cap agreements in place at December 31, 2000,
are as follows:


Amount Fixed LIBOR

50 cap 7.500% 09/29/2000 10/01/2001

Subsequent to year end, the Company executed new interest rate swap
agreements totaling $140 million at a weighted-average LIBOR interest rate of
5.051%.

The outstanding balance of $146 million on the Company's credit facilities
had a weighted- average interest rate of 7.7% (before applied swap instruments)
at December 31, 2000. Each of the credit facilities includes covenants that
require the Company to maintain minimum net worth levels, maintain interest and
debt coverage ratios, maintain total obligations to capitalized value ratios,
and maintain limitations on variable-rate debt. The credit facilities also
require that the Company's senior management continue to consist of certain
individuals and to

maintain certain levels of minority ownership in the Operating Partnership.
The First Tennessee Bank credit facility provides that if the Company completes
an offering of its securities, not less than 75% of the net proceeds of any such
offering will be applied for the benefit of the Operating Partnership. The
following table sets forth the Company's credit facilities at December 31, 2000
(in millions):


Credit Facility Amount Current Balance Maturity

SunTrust $10 $10 April 2002
SouthTrust 20 20 March 2004
First Tennessee 80 25 June 2002
Wells Fargo 130 91 September 2002

During 2000 the Company closed permanent loans of $174 million at a
weighted average interest rate of 8.24%. The details of those loans are: in June
a $9.9 million loan on Westgate Crossing in Spartanburg, South Carolina, at an
interest rate of 8.42%; in July a $5.2 million loan on Plaza Del Sol Mall in Del
Rio, Texas, at an interest rate of 9.15% (the Company's share of this loan was
$2.6 million); in August a $74.5 million loan on Burnsville Center in
Burnsville, Minnesota, at an interest rate of 8.0%; in November a loan of $32.5
million on Stroud Mall in Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, at an interest rate of
8.42%; and also in November a $52.0 million loan on York Galleria in York,
Pennsylvania, at an interest rate of 8.34%. The proceeds of these loans were
used to repay existing variable rate indebtedness and to fund distribution to
equity partners.

Based on the debt (including construction projects) and the market value of
equity described above, the Company's debt to total market capitalization (debt
plus market value equity) ratio was 59.4% at December 31, 2000, compared to
63.0% at December 31, 1999.

On January 31, 2001, the Company, assumed in connection with the Jacobs
acquisition total debt obligations of $745.5 million, including permanent debt
of $661.5 million (adjusted for minority interest in one property);
variable-rate debt of $12.5 million; and its pro rata share of mortgage debt on
unconsolidated properties (accounted for under the equity method) of $71.5
million. In addition, the Company closed a $212 million unsecured credit
facility provided by a consortium of banks led by Wells Fargo. The outstanding
balance under this facility was $115 million at February 28, 2001. Of the
revolving component of this facility, $97 million is still available and will be
used to fund capital improvements in certain of the acquired properties.

As of February 28, 2001, the Company had approximately 1,901,000 square
feet under construction consisting of:

CBL Center Chattanooga, Tennessee 128,000 January 2002

Parkway Place Mall Huntsville, Alabama 631,000 October 2002


On January 31, 2001, the Company acquired Jacobs interests in 21 malls and
two associated centers. The total gross leasable area of the 23 properties was
19.2 million square feet, or an average gross leasable area of 914,000 square
feet per mall. The gross leasable area of the mall stores in the Jacobs
properties was approximately 5.9 million square feet. The malls are located in
middle markets predominantly in the Southeast and the Midwest. Additionaly, the
Company acquired the remaing 50% interest in Madison Square Mall in Huntsville,
Alabama.

The Company has also entered into a number of option agreements for the
development of future regional malls and community centers. Except for these
projects and as further described below, the Company currently has no other
capital commitments.

It is management's expectation that the Company will continue to have
access to the capital resources necessary to expand and grow its business.
Future development and acquisition activities will be undertaken by the Company
as suitable opportunities arise. Such activities are not expected to be
undertaken unless adequate sources of financing are available and a satisfactory
budget with targeted returns on investment has been internally approved.

The Company will fund its major development, expansion and acquisition
activity with its traditional sources of construction and permanent debt
financing as well as from other debt and equity financings, including public
financings, and its credit facilities.


OTHER CAPITAL EXPENDITURES

Management prepares an annual capital expenditures budget for each property
which is intended to provide for all necessary recurring capital improvements
and maintenance items. Management believes that its annual operating reserve for
maintenance and recurring capital improvements as well as reimbursements from
tenants will provide the necessary funding for such requirements. The Company
intends to distribute approximately 50% to 90% of its funds from operations with
the remaining 10% to 50% to be held as a reserve for capital expenditures and
continued growth opportunities.

Major tenant finish costs for currently vacant space are expected to be
funded with working capital, operating reserves, or revolving lines of credit.
Funds invested for tenant finish costs are expected to earn a return on that
investment.

CBL & ASSOCIATS PROPERTIES, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the year ended December 31, 2000, revenue generating capital
expenditures, or tenant allowances for improvements, were $10.0 million. These
capital expenditures generate a return through increased rents from these
tenants over the term of their leases. Revenue enhancing capital expenditures,
or remodeling and renovation costs, were $7.4 million, the majority of which was
for the renovation of Asheville Mall in Asheville, North Carolina, and three
community centers. Revenue neutral capital expenditures, such as parking lot and
roof repairs that are recovered from the tenants, were $9.6 million in 2000.

Environmental Matter

The Company believes that the Properties, with the exception of Parkway
Place in Huntsville, Alabama, 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. At Parkway Place
asbestos abatement will occur in portions of the existing mall during demolition
which will be completed by the end of the second quarter of 2001. The Company
has not been notified by any governmental authority and is not otherwise aware
of any material noncompliance, liability, or claim relating to hazardous or
toxic substances in connection with any of its present or former properties. The
Company has not recorded in its financial statements any material liability in
connection with environmental matters.

Cash Flows

Cash flows provided by operating activities for 2000 increased by $3.6
million, or 3.2%, to $117.8 million from $114.2 million in 1999. This increase
was primarily due to increases in cash provided from the operations of ten new
centers opened or acquired in the last 24 months offset by decreases in cash
flow from the sales of properties. Cash flows used in investing activities for
2000 decreased by $85.1 million, or 40.1%, to $127.1 million compared with
$212.1 million in 1999. This decrease was primarily due to the smaller number of
acquisitions in 2000 compared with the number of acquisitions in 1999. Cash
flows provided by financing activities for 2000 decreased by $91.8 million, or
92.6%, to $7.4 million from $99.2 million in 1999. This decrease is primarily
due to decreased borrowings related to the acquisition program and the
retirement of debt with proceeds from sales of the properties.

Impact of Inflation

In the last three years, inflation has not had a significant impact on the
Company because of the relatively low inflation rate. Substantially all tenant
leases do, however, contain provisions designed to protect the Company from the
impact of inflation. Such provisions include clauses enabling the Company to
receive percentage rentals based on tenants' gross sales, which generally
increase as prices rise, and/or escalation clauses, which generally increase
rental rates during the terms of the leases. In addition, many of the leases are
for terms of less than ten years which may enable the Company to replace
existing leases with new leases at higher base and/or percentage rentals if
rents from the existing leases are below the then-existing market rate. Most of
the leases require the tenants to pay their share of operating expenses,
including common area maintenance, real estate taxes and insurance, thereby
reducing the Company's exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses
resulting from inflation.

New Accounting Pronouncements

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended, ("SFAS No. 133")
establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative
instrument (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts) be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability
measured at its fair value. SFAS No. 133 requires that changes in the
derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific
hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for qualifying hedges
allows a derivative's gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged
item in the income statement; and requires that a company must formally
document, designate, and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive
hedge accounting.

49

CBL & ASSOCIATS PROPERTIES, INC.
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The Company has determined that a portion of its derivative instruments
(swap agreements and an interest rate cap agreement) in place are ineffective as
defined by SFAS No. 133. The terms of ineffective derivative instruments expire
in 2001, thus while the Company may experience some volatility in earnings in
interim periods, there will be no effect to current earnings in the Company's
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001. If the Company had
implemented SFAS No. 133 as of December 31, 2000, ineffective derivative
instruments would have increased total assets by $514,000 and would have
increased net income by $514,000. Effective derivative instruments would have
increased liabilities by $262,000 and comprehensive income, also recorded on the
balance sheet, would have decreased by $262,000.

Funds from Operations

Management believes that Funds from Operations ("FFO") provides an
additional indicator of the financial performance of the Properties. FFO is
defined by the Company as net income (loss) before depreciation of real estate
assets, gains or losses on sales of real estate and gains or losses on
investments in marketable securities. FFO also includes the Company's share of
FFO in unconsolidated properties and excludes minority interests' share of FFO
in consolidated properties other than the Operating Partnership. The Company
computes FFO in accordance with the National Association of Real Estate
Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") recommendation concerning finance costs and
non-real estate depreciation. The Company excludes gains or losses on outparcel
sales, even though NAREIT permits their inclusion when calculating FFO. Gains or
losses on outparcel sales would have added to FFO $5.4 million in 2000 compared
with $8.4 million in 1999.

The use of FFO as an indicator of financial performance is influenced not
only by the operations of the Properties, but also by the capital structure of
the Operating Partnership and the Company. Accordingly, management expects that
FFO will be one of the significant factors considered by the Board of Directors
in determining the amount of cash distributions the Operating Partnership will
make to its partners (including the Company). Management also believes that FFO
is a widely used measure of the operating performance of REITs and provides a
relevant basis for comparison among companies. FFO does not represent cash flow
from operations as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States ("GAAP"), is not necessarily indicative of cash from operations
available to fund all cash flow needs, and should not be considered as an
alternative to net income for purposes of evaluating the Company's operating
performance or to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.

Effective January 1, 2000, NAREIT clarified FFO to include all operating
results - recurring and non-recurring - except those results defined as
"extraordinary items" under accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States. The Company implemented this clarification in the first quarter
of 2000 and no longer adds back to FFO development costs charged to net income.
This amount was $127,000 for the year ended December 31, 2000. For comparatice
purposes, the Company has recomputed its 1999 FFO herein to exclude the add-back
of development costs charged to net income of $1,674,000.

In 2000, FFO increased by $15.8 million, or 13.6%, to $132.0 million
compared with $116.3 million in 1999. The increase in FFO was primarily
attributable to the continuing increase in revenues and income from operations
from ten new developments and acquisitions, and increases in occupancy levels
and higher rents in the Company's stabilized portfolio offset by FFO decreases
from the sales of thirteen properties.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company has managed the market risk for its variable rate debt with
derivative financial instruments. The derivative instruments are described in
the Liquidity and Capital Resources section in Item 7 above and in Note 8 to the
Financial Statements.

The fair value of the Company's long term debt is estimated based on
discounted cash flows at interest rates that management believes reflects the
risks associated with long term debt of similar risk and duration.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Board of Directors of CBL & Associates Properties, Inc.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CBL &
ASSOCIATES PROPERTIES, INC. (a Delaware corporation) and subsidiaries as of
December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the related consolidated statements of
operations, shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 2000. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform
the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements
are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of CBL & Associates Properties,
Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2000, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States.

Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic
financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules listed in the index to
financial statements are presented for the purpose of complying with the
Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and are not part of the basic
financial statements. These schedules have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our
opinion, fairly state in all material respects the financial data required to be
set forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

CBL & ASSOCIATS PROPERTIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. ORGANIZATION

CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation,
is engaged in the development, acquisition, and operation of regional shopping
malls and community centers, primarily in the Southeast and select markets in
the Northeast and Midwest regions of the United States. The Company is the 100%
owner of two qualified REIT subsidiaries, CBL Holdings I, Inc. and CBL Holdings
II, Inc., which are the sole general partner and majority owner, respectively,
of CBL & Associates Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership"). As a
result, the Company conducts its business through the Operating Partnership,
which at December 31, 2000, owns controlling interests in a portfolio of
properties consisting of 26 regional malls; 15 associated centers, each of which
is part of a regional shopping mall complex; two power centers; 70 community
centers; and one office building. Additionally, the Operating Partnership owns
non-controlling interests in four regional malls and one associated center. The
Operating Partnership has two malls and one community center currently under
construction and has options to acquire certain development properties owned by
third parties. At December 31, 2000, CBL Holdings I, Inc. owned a 2.5% general
partnership interest and CBL Holdings II, Inc. owned a 65.4% limited partnership
interest in the Operating Partnership for a combined interest held by the
Company of 67.9%.

The minority interest in the Operating Partnership is held primarily by CBL
& Associates, Inc. and its affiliates (collectively "CBL") who contributed their
interests in certain real estate properties and joint ventures to the Operating
Partnership in exchange for a limited partnership interest in connection with
the formation of the Operating Partnership in November 1993. At December 31,
2000, CBL owns a 25.5% limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership
(Note 10).

To comply with certain technical requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), the Operating Partnership carries out the
Company's property management and development activities through CBL &
Associates Management, Inc. (the "Management Company"). The Operating
Partnership holds 100% of the preferred stock and 5% of the common stock of the
Management Company, with CBL holding the remaining 95% of the common stock.
Through the ownership of the preferred stock, the Operating Partnership receives
substantially all of the cash flow and, therefore, enjoys substantially all of
the economic benefits of the Management Company's operations. Due to the
Company's ability, as sole general partner, to control the Operating Partnership
and the Operating Partnership's rights to substantially all of the economic
benefits of the Management Company, the accounts of each entity are included in
the accompanying consolidated financial statements. The Company, the Operating
Partnership, and the Management Company are referred to collectively as the
"Company".

All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated
in the consolidated presentation.

On January 31, 2001, the Company completed the first stage of the
acquisition of The Richard E. Jacobs Group's interests in 21 malls and two
associated centers for total consideration of approximately $1.26 billion,
including the acquisition of minority interests in certain properties. The
purchase price is comprised of $124.5 million in cash including closing costs of
approximately $12 million; the assumption of $745.5million in non-recourse
mortgage debt; and the issuance of 12,056,692 special common units of the
Operating Partnership with a face value of $32.25 per unit and a fair value of
$27.25 per unit. The cash portion was funded from a new $212 million unsecured
credit facility provided by a consortium of banks led by Wells Fargo. The
Company will close on the second stage in 2002, which will consist of cash of
$0.3 million, the assumption of $25.7 million in non-recourse mortgage debt, and
the issuance of 499,733 special common units of the Operating Partnership with a
face value of $32.25 per unit. In a separate transaction, the Company issued an
additional 603,344 special common units of the Operating Partnership to purchase
the remaining 50% interest in Madison Square Mall in Huntsville, Alabama.


2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Real Estate Assets

Costs directly related to the development of real estate assets, including
overhead costs directly attributable to property development, are capitalized.
Interest costs incurred during the development and construction period are
capitalized.

64

CBL & ASSOCIATS PROPERTIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Ordinary repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Major
replacements and improvements are capitalized and depreciated over their
estimated useful lives. Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis
generally over 40 years for buildings and improvements and seven to ten years
for equipment and fixtures. Tenant improvements are capitalized and depreciated
on a straight-line basis over the life of the related lease.

Long-Lived Assets

The Company periodically evaluates the carrying value of long-lived assets
to be held and used when events or changes in circumstances warrant such a
review. The carrying value of a long-lived asset is considered impaired when the
projected undiscounted future cash flow of such asset is less than its carrying
value. Management believes that no material impairment existed at December 31,
2000, and accordingly, no loss was recognized.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include all cash and cash equivalent investments
with original maturities of three months or less, primarily consisting of demand
deposits in banks.

Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs are included in other assets in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets, include fees and costs incurred to obtain long-term
financing, and are being amortized over the terms of the respective mortgage
notes payable. Unamortized deferred financing costs are written off when
mortgage notes payable are retired before the maturity date.

Deferred Transaction Costs

Deferred transaction costs of $5.4 million are included in other assets in
the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2000, and include
fees and costs incurred in connection with the acquisition of The Richard E.
Jacobs Group's interests in 21 malls and two associated centers. These costs
will be capitalized as part of the value assigned to these assets.

Revenue Recognition

Rental revenue attributable to operating leases is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the initial term of the related leases. Certain tenants
are required to pay additional rent if sales volume exceeds specified amounts.
The Company recognizes this additional rent as revenue when such amounts become
determinable. A substantial portion of the Company's rental income is derived
from various national and regional retail companies.

Tenant Reimbursements

The Company receives reimbursements from tenants for certain costs as
provided in the lease agreements. These costs consist of real estate taxes,
common area maintenance, and other recoverable costs. Tenant reimbursements are
recognized as revenue in the period the costs are incurred.

Management, Development and Leasing Fees

Management fees are charged as a percentage of rentals and are recognized
as revenue as they are earned. Leasing fees are charged for newly executed
leases. These fees are recognized as revenues as they are earned. Development
fees are recognized as revenue on a pro rata basis over the development period.

Gain on Sales of Real Estate Assets

Gain on sales of real estate assets is recognized at the time title to the
asset is transferred to the buyer, subject to the adequacy of the buyer's
initial and continuing investment and the assumption by the buyer of all future
ownership risks of the asset.

65

CBL & ASSOCIATS PROPERTIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Income Taxes

The Company is qualified as a real estate investment trust under Sections
856 through 860 of the Code and applicable treasury regulations. In order to
maintain qualification as a real estate investment trust, the Company is
currently required to distribute at least 90% of its taxable income to
shareholders and meet certain other asset and income tests as well as other
requirements. As a real estate investment trust, the Company will generally not
be liable for federal corporate income taxes. Thus, no provision for federal
income taxes has been included in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements. If the Company fails to qualify as a real estate investment trust in
any taxable year, the Company will be subject to federal income tax on its
taxable income at regular corporate tax rates. Even if the Company maintains its
qualification for taxation as a real estate investment trust, 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. State income taxes
were not significant in 2000, 1999 and 1998.


Derivative Financial Instruments

Interest rate cap and swap agreements, which are principally used by the
Company in the management of interest rate exposure, are accounted for on an
accrual basis. Amounts to be paid or received under interest rate cap and swap
agreements are recorded in interest expense in the period in which they accrue.
See Note 8 for additional information.

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company's tenants consist of national, regional and local retailers.
Financial instruments which subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk
consist primarily of tenant leases. The Company does not generally obtain
collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject to credit
risk but monitors the credit standing of tenants.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") excludes dilution and is computed by
dividing earnings available to common shareholders by the weighted-average
number of unrestricted common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS
assumes the issuance of common stock for all potential dilutive common shares
outstanding. The limited partners' rights to convert their minority interest in
the Operating Partnership into shares of common stock are not dilutive (Note
10). The difference in basic and diluted EPS is due to the assumed exercise of
outstanding stock options and restricted stock resulting in 140,000, 187,000 and
261,000 additional potential dilutive common shares in 2000, 1999 and 1998,
respectively.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plans under
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees" (APB No. 25). Effective in 1996, the Company adopted the disclosure
option of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." SFAS No. 123 requires companies that
do not choose to account for stock-based compensation as prescribed by the
statement to disclose the pro forma effects on net income and earnings per share
as if SFAS No. 123 had been adopted. Additionally, certain other disclosures are
required with respect to stock-based compensation and the assumptions used to
determine the pro forma effects of SFAS No. 123. See Note 12 for the required
disclosures.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States 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.

any sinking fund or mandatory redemption and is not redeemable prior to July 1,
2003. On or after July 1, 2003, the Company may redeem the Series A Preferred
Stock, in whole or in part, at any time for a cash redemption price of $25.00
per share, plus dividends accrued and unpaid.


8. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Company has only limited involvement with derivative financial
instruments and does not use them for trading purposes. They are used to manage
well defined interest rate risks.

Under interest rate swap agreements, the Company agrees with other parties
to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed rate and
variable rate interest amounts calculated by reference to an agreed-upon
notional amount. Under these agreements, the Company receives interest payments
at a rate equal to LIBOR (6.56% at December 31, 2000) and pays interest at fixed
rates shown below.

CBL & ASSOCIATS PROPERTIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


The Company has the following interest rate swaps in place at December 31,
2000, totaling $423 million:


Notional Amount Fixed LIBOR
(in millions) Component Effective Date Expiration Date
--------------- ------------ --------------- ---------------

$100 6.405% 01/27/00 01/29/01
75 6.610% 02/24/00 02/24/01
50 5.700% 06/11/98 06/15/01
38 5.730% 06/26/98 06/30/01
80 5.490% 09/01/98 09/01/01
80 5.830% 12/22/00 08/30/03


The Company has a $50 million interest rate cap on LIBOR based variable
rate debt at 7.5% terminating October 1, 2001. The Company also obtained a $50
million interest rate swap with a fixed LIBOR component of 5.737% effective
January 3, 2001, and expiring June 1, 2002.

The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by
the counterparties to its interest rate swap and cap agreements and
nonderivative financial assets but has no off-balance sheet credit risk of
accounting loss. The Company anticipates, however, that counterparties will be
able to fully satisfy their obligations under the contracts. The Company does
not obtain collateral or other security to support financial instruments subject
to credit risk but monitors the credit standing of counterparties.

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities", as amended, ("SFAS No. 133")
establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that every derivative
instrument (including certain derivative instruments embedded in other
contracts) be recorded in the balance sheet as either an asset or liability
measured at its fair value. SFAS No. 133 requires that changes in the
derivative's fair value be recognized currently in earnings unless specific
hedge accounting criteria are met. Special accounting for qualifying hedges
allows a derivative's gains and losses to offset related results on the hedged
item in the income statement and requires that a company must formally document,
designate, and assess the effectiveness of transactions that receive hedge
accounting.

The Company will implement SFAS No.133 beginning January 1, 2001, and it
will recognize as separate assets and liabilities only those derivatives
embedded in hybrid instruments issued, acquired, or substantively modified by
the entity on or after the selected transition date.

The Company has determined that a portion of its derivative instruments
(swap agreements and an interest rate cap agreement) in place are ineffective as
defined by SFAS No. 133. The terms of ineffective derivative instruments expire
in 2001; thus, while the Company may experience some volatility in earnings in
interim periods, there will be no effect to current earnings in the Company's
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2001. If the Company had
implemented SFAS No. 133 as of December 31, 2000, ineffective derivative
instruments would have increased total assets by $514,000 and would have
increased net income by $514,000. Effective derivative instruments would have
increased liabilities by $262,000 and comprehensive income, also recorded on the
balance sheet, would have decreased by $262,000.

9. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

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 maturity of these financial instruments. Based on the
interest rates for similar financial instruments, the carrying value of mortgage
notes receivable is a reasonable estimation of fair value. The carrying value of
mortgage and other notes payable, based on borrowing rates currently available
to the Company, is a reasonable estimation of fair value at December 31, 2000
and 1999. The fair value of the interest rate swap and cap agreements, which
represents the cash requirement if the existing agreements had been settled at
year end, was not significant at December 31, 2000 and 1999.

10. CONVERSION RIGHTS

Pursuant to the Operating Partnership agreement, the limited partners were
granted rights to convert their partnership interests in the Operating
Partnership into shares of common stock, subject to certain limits, and to sell
to the Company after November 3, 1996, part or all of their partnership interest
in the Operating Partnership in exchange for shares of common stock or their
cash equivalent at the Company's election, as defined.

The Operating Partnership acquired properties from CBL in exchange for
1,336 and 63,904 limited partnership units in the Operating Partnership during
2000 and 1998, respectively. In October 1999 the Company issued 79,715 limited
partnership units valued at $1,928,000 to a third party in exchange for land.
During 1998, the Operating Partnership issued 2,749,888 limited partnership
units in the Operating Partnership valued at $68.3 million to third parties in
exchange for seven properties.

In November 2000, the Company purchased 34,463 limited partnerships units
valued at $761,000 from a third party. In July 1998, the Company purchased
122,008 limited partnership units valued at $3.0 million from a former executive
and minority investor in the Operating Partnership. Also during 1998, a third
party converted 388,022 limited partnership units to common stock.

At December 31, 2000 and 1999, there remained outstanding rights to convert
CBL's minority interest in the Operating Partnership to 9,419,088 and 9,417,752
shares of common stock, respectively. At December 31, 2000 and 1999, there
remained outstanding rights to convert third parties' minority interests in the
Operating Partnership to 2,407,000 and 2,442,000 shares of common stock,
respectively.

11. 401(K) PROFIT SHARING 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. All employees who have attained the age of 21 and
have completed at least one year of service are eligible to participate in the
plan. The plan provides for employer matching contributions on behalf of each
participant equal to 50% of the portion of such participant's contribution which
does not exceed 2.5% of such participant's compensation for the plan year.
Additionally, the Management Company has the discretion to make additional
profit-sharing-type contributions not related to participant elective
contributions. Total contributions by the Management Company were not
significant for 2000, 1999, and 1998.

12. STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

The Company maintains the CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. 1993 Stock
Incentive Plan, as amended (the "Plan") which permits the issuance of stock
options and common stock to selected officers, employees and directors of the
Company, up to 2,800,000 shares of common stock. The Plan is administered by the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee").

Stock options issued under the Plan allow for the purchase of common stock
at the fair market value of the stock at the date of grant. Stock options
granted to officers and employees under the Plan vest and become exercisable in
installments on each of the first five anniversaries of the date of grant and
expire ten years after the date of grant. Stock options granted to directors are
fully vested upon grant, but may not be sold, pledged or otherwise transferred
in any manner during the director's term or for one year thereafter.

The Company accounts for its stock-based compensation plans under APB No.
25, under which no compensation expense has been recognized for stock options
granted as all employee options have been granted with an exercise price equal
to the fair value of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. For SFAS
No. 123 purposes, the fair value of each employee option grant has been
estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Sholes option pricing model
and the following weighted average assumptions for 2000, 1999 and 1998,
respectively:

71

CBL & ASSOCIATS PROPERTIES, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



2000 1999 1998
------------------ ---------------- -----------------

Risk-free interest rate 6.65% 5.25% 5.90%
Dividend yield 8.98% 8.33% 8.09%
Expected volatility 17.00% 16.00% 16.00%
Expected life 6.0 years 7.2 years 7.2 years


Using these assumptions, the fair value of the employee stock options
granted in 2000, 1999 and 1998 is $500,000, $468,000 and $468,000, respectively,
which would be amortized as compensation expense over the vesting period of the
options. Had compensation cost for the plan been determined in accordance with
SFAS No. 123, utilizing the assumptions detailed above, the Company's pro forma
net income and net income per share would have been as follows for the years
ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998, respectively (in thousands, except per
share data):


2000 1999 1998
------------------ ---------------- -----------------
Net income available to common shareholders:

As reported $ 59,254 $ 48,127 $ 37,265
Pro forma 58,585 47,458 36,692

Pro forma basic 2.35 1.93 1.52
Diluted as reported 2.37 1.94 1.53
Pro forma diluted 2.34 1.91 1.51


The pro forma effect on net income in this disclosure is not representative
of the pro forma effect on net income in future years because it does not take
into consideration pro forma compensation expense related to grants made prior
to 1995.

1998 was $1.54, $1.22 and $1.49, respectively.

Shares subject to options outstanding at December 31, 2000, have a
weighted-average remaining contractual life of 6.6 years. Of the options
outstanding at December 31, 2000, 1,284,067 are currently exercisable with a
weighted-average exercise price of $21.47 per share.

Under the Plan, common stock may be awarded either alone, in addition to,
or in tandem with other stock awards granted under the Plan. The Committee has
the authority to determine eligible persons to whom common stock will be
awarded, the number of shares to be awarded, and the duration of the vesting
period, as defined.

During 2000, the Company issued 72,329 shares of common stock under the
Plan with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $22.59 per share, of which
36,606 shares of common stock were immediately vested. The remaining 35,723
shares of common stock vest at various dates from 2001 to 2005.

During 1999, the Company issued 38,989 shares of common stock under the
Plan with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $23.44 per share, of which

shares of common stock vest at various dates from 1999 to 2003.

13. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

CBL and certain officers of the Company have a significant minority
interest in the construction company that has been engaged by the Company in the
building of substantially all of the Company's properties.

The Management Company provides management and leasing services to
affiliated partnerships and joint ventures not controlled by the Company.
Revenue recognized for these services amounted to $1,166,000, $1,086,000 and
$1,034,000 in 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is currently involved in certain litigation arising in the
ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the pending
litigation will not materially affect the financial statements of the Company.
Additionally, based on environmental studies completed to date on the real
estate properties, management believes exposure related to environmental cleanup
will be immaterial to the consolidated financial position and consolidated
results of operations of the Company.

The Company has entered into standby purchase agreements with third-party
developers (the "Developers") for the construction, development and potential
ownership of two community centers in Texas (the "Co-Development Projects"). The
Developers have utilized these standby purchase agreements to assist in
obtaining financing to fund the construction of the Co-Development Projects. The
standby purchase agreements, which expire in 2001, are dependent upon certain
completion requirements, rental levels, the inability of the Developers to
obtain adequate permanent financing, and the inability to sell the
Co-Development Project before the Company has to fund its equity contribution or
purchase the Co-Development Project. In return for its commitment to purchase a
Co-Development Project pursuant to a standby purchase agreement, the Company
receives a fee as well as a participation interest in each Co-Development
Project. The outstanding amount of standby purchase agreements at December 31,
2000, is $51.4 million.
