1. Interim Financial Statements and Basis of Presentation:

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of The Macerich
Company (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and have
not been audited by independent public accountants.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and
related notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 31, 2000. In the opinion of management, all
adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for
a fair presentation of the financial statements for the interim periods
have been made. The results for interim periods are not necessarily
indicative of the results to be expected for a full year. The
accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2000 has
been derived from the audited financial statements, but does not
include all disclosures required by GAAP.

Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2000 consolidated
financial statements to conform to the 2001 financial statement
presentation.

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements"
("SAB 101"), which became effective for periods beginning after
December 15, 1999. This bulletin modified the timing of revenue
recognition for percentage rent received from tenants. This change will
defer recognition of a significant amount of percentage rent for the
first three calendar quarters into the fourth quarter. The Company
applied this accounting change as of January 1, 2000. The cumulative
effect of this change in accounting principle, at the adoption date of
January 1, 2000, including the pro rata share of joint ventures, was
approximately $1,750.

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," ("SFAS 133") which
requires companies to record derivatives on the balance sheet, measured
at fair value. Changes in the fair values of those derivatives will be
accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it
qualifies for hedge accounting. The key criterion for hedge accounting
is that the hedging relationship must be highly effective in achieving
offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows. In June 1999, the FASB
issued SFAS 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities," which delays the implementation of SFAS 133 from January
1, 2000 to January 1, 2001. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138,
"Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging
Activities - an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133," ("SFAS138"),
which amends the accounting and reporting standards of SFAS 133. As a
result of the adoption of SFAS 133 on January 1, 2001, the Company
recorded a transition adjustment of $9,445 to accumulated other
comprehensive income related to treasury rate lock transactions settled
in prior years. The entire transition adjustment was reflected in the
quarter ended March 31, 2001. The transition adjustment of $9,445, less
minority interest of $2,297 and amortization of $659 for the six months
ended June 30, 2001, would be subtracted from net income to arrive at
comprehensive income of $16,418. The Company expects that $1,328 will
be reclassified from

accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings for the year ended
December 31, 2001. During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, the Company
reclassified $331 from accumulated other comprehensive income to
earnings.

Earnings Per Share ("EPS"):

The computation of basic earnings per share is based on net income and
the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the six and
three months ending June 30, 2001 and 2000. The computation of diluted
earnings per share does not include the effect of outstanding restricted
stock and common stock options issued under the employee and director
stock incentive plans as they are antidilutive using the treasury method.
The Operating Partnership units ("OP units") not held by the Company have
been included in the diluted EPS calculation since they are redeemable on
a one-for-one basis. The following table reconciles the basic and diluted
earnings per share calculation:

The Company is involved in the acquisition, ownership, redevelopment,
management and leasing of regional and community shopping centers
located throughout the United States. The Company is the sole general
partner of, and owns a majority of the ownership interests in, The
Macerich Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the
"Operating Partnership"). The Operating Partnership owns or has an
ownership interest in 46 regional shopping centers and five community
shopping centers aggregating approximately 42 million square feet of
gross leasable area ("GLA"). These 51 regional and community shopping
centers are referred to hereinafter as the "Centers", unless the

self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") and conducts all of
its operations through the Operating Partnership and the Company's
three management companies, Macerich Property Management Company, LLC,
a Delaware limited liability company, Macerich Manhattan Management
Company, a California corporation, and Macerich Management Company, a
California corporation (collectively, the "Management Companies"). The
term "Management Companies" includes Macerich Property Management
Company prior to the merger with Macerich Property Management Company,
LLC on March 29, 2001.

The Company was organized to qualify as a REIT under the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The 21%, as of June 30, 2001, limited
partnership interest of the Operating Partnership not owned by the
Company is reflected in these financial statements as minority
interest.

3. Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures and the Management

The Operating Partnership's interest in each joint venture as of June

Faire Mall. The prior loan was paid in full and a new note was
issued for $70,000 bearing interest at a fixed rate of 7.89% and

(j) In connection with the acquisition of this Center, the joint
venture assumed $39,425 of debt. At acquisition, this debt was
recorded at its fair value of $41,475 which included an
unamortized premium of $2,050. This premium was being amortized as
interest expense over the life of the loan using the effective
interest method. The joint venture's monthly debt service was $349
and was calculated based on an 8.60% interest rate. On June 1,
2000, the joint venture paid off in full the prior debt and a new
note was issued for $61,000 bearing interest at a fixed rate of
8.06% and maturing June 2010. The new loan is interest only until
December 31, 2001. Effective January 1, 2002, monthly principal
and interest of $450 will be payable through maturity. The new
debt is cross-collateralized by Kitsap Mall and Kitsap Place.

(k) In connection with the acquisition of this property, the joint
venture assumed $127,000 of collateralized fixed rate notes (the
"Notes"). The Notes bear interest at an average fixed rate of
7.20% and mature in August 2005. The Notes require the joint
venture to deposit all cash flow from the property operations with
a trustee to meet its obligations under the Notes. Cash in excess
of the required amount, as defined, is released. Included in cash
and cash equivalents is $750 of restricted cash deposited with the
trustee at June 30, 2001 and at December 31, 2000.

(l) On July 28, 2000, the joint venture placed a $16,125 floating rate
note on the property bearing interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% and
maturing July 2002. At June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, the
total interest was 7.75% and 9.0%, respectively.

(m) Concurrent with this acquisition, the joint venture placed $76,700
of debt and obtained a construction loan for an additional
$16,000. Principal is drawn on the construction loan as costs are
incurred. As of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, $15,291 and
$15,038 of principal has been drawn under the construction loan,
respectively.

5. Mortgage Notes Payable, Continued:

(n) On December 1, 2000, the joint venture refinanced the debt on
Stonewood Mall. The prior loan was paid in full and a new note was
issued for $77,750 bearing interest at a fixed rate of 7.41% and
maturing December 11, 2010. The joint venture incurred a loss on
early extinguishment of the prior debt in 2000 of $375.

(o) In connection with the acquisition of these Centers, the joint
venture assumed $485,000 of mortgage notes payable which are
secured by the properties. At acquisition, the $300,000 fixed rate
portion of this debt reflected a fair value of $322,700, which
included an unamortized premium of $22,700. This premium is being
amortized as interest expense over the life of the loan using the
effective interest method. At June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000,
the unamortized balance of the debt premium was $14,833 and $16,113,
respectively. This debt is due in May 2006 and requires monthly
payments of $1,852. $184,500 of this debt is due in May 2003 and
requires monthly interest payments at a variable weighted average
rate(based on LIBOR)of 5.67% and 7.21% at June 30, 2001 and December
31, 2000, respectively. This variable rate debt is covered by an
interest rate cap agreement which effectively prevents the interest
rate from exceeding 11.53%. On April 12, 2000, the joint venture
issued $138,500 of additional mortgage notes which are secured by the
properties and are due in May 2006. $57,100 of this debt requires
fixed monthly interest payments of $387 at a weighted average rate of
8.13% while the floating rate notes of $81,400 require monthly
interest payments at a variable weighted average rate(based on LIBOR)
of 5.54% and 7.08% at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000,
respectively. This variable rate debt is covered by an interest rate
cap agreement which effectively prevents the interest rate from
exceeding 11.83%.

(p) This debt is interest only until January 2001 at which time monthly
payments of principal and interest will be due in the amount of $299.

The Company periodically enters into treasury lock agreements in order
to hedge its exposure to interest rate fluctuations on anticipated
financings. Under these agreements, the Company pays or receives an
amount equal to the difference between the treasury lock rate and the
market rate on the date of settlement, based on the notional amount of
the hedge. The realized gain or loss on the contracts was recorded,
prior to January 1, 2001, on the balance sheet in other assets and
amortized as interest expense over the period of the hedged loans. As
of January 1, 2001, in accordance with SFAS 133, the gain or loss on
the contracts has been reclassified to accumulated other comprehensive
income on the balance sheet. As of June 30, 2001, no treasury lock
agreements were outstanding.

Certain mortgage loan agreements contain a prepayment penalty provision
for the early extinguishment of the debt.

Total interest capitalized, including the prorata share of joint
ventures, during the six and three months ended June 30, 2001, was
$2,564 and $1,320, respectively; and total interest capitalized during
the six and three months ended June 30, 2000 was $3,411 and $2,100,
respectively.

The fair value of mortgage notes payable, including the pro rata share
of joint ventures, at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000 is estimated
to be approximately $1,938,980 and $2,009,932, respectively, based on
current interest rates for comparable loans.

6. Bank and Other Notes Payable:

The Company has a credit facility of $150,000 with a maturity of May
2002. In August 2001, the Company expanded this line of credit to
$175,000. The interest rate on such credit facility fluctuates between
1.35% and 1.80% over LIBOR depending on leverage levels. As of June 30,
2001 and December 31, 2000, $144,000 and $59,000 of borrowings were
outstanding under this line of credit at interest rates of 5.64% and
7.90%, respectively.

Additionally, the Company issued $10,776 in letters of credit
guaranteeing performance by the Company of certain obligations. The
Company does not believe that these letters of credit will result in a
liability to the Company.

During January 1999, the Company entered into a bank construction loan
agreement to fund $89,250 of costs related to the redevelopment of
Pacific View. The loan bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% through 2000.
In January 2001, the interest rate was reduced to LIBOR plus 1.75% and
the loan matures in February 2002. Principal was drawn as construction
costs were incurred. As of June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000, $89,250
and $88,340 of principal had been drawn under the loan at interest
rates of 5.56% and 8.63%, respectively. On July 10, 2001, the Company
paid off this loan in full and a permanent loan was issued for $89,000,
expandable up to $96,000 subject to certain conditions, bearing
interest at a fixed rate of 7.16% and maturing August 31, 2011.

7. Convertible Debentures:

During 1997, the Company issued and sold $161,400 of convertible
subordinated debentures (the "Debentures") due 2002. The Debentures,
which were sold at par, bear interest at 7.25% annually (payable
semi-annually) and are convertible into common stock at any time, on or
after 60 days, from the date of issue at a conversion price of $31.125
per share. In November and December 2000, the Company purchased and
retired $10,552 of the Debentures. The Company recorded a gain on early
extinguishment of debt of $1,018 related to the transaction. The
Debentures mature on December 15, 2002 and are callable by the Company
after June 15, 2002 at par plus accrued interest.

8. Related-Party Transactions:

The Company engaged the Management Companies to manage the operations
of its properties and certain unconsolidated joint ventures. For the
six and three months ending June 30, 2001, management fees of $757 and
$0, respectively; and for the six and three months ending June 30,
2000, management fees of $1,437 and $724, respectively, were paid to
the Management Companies by the Company. For the six and three months
ending June 30, 2001, management fees of $3,561 and $1,789
respectively; and for the six and three months ending June 30, 2000,
management fees of $3,449 and $1,752, respectively, were paid to the
Management Companies by the joint ventures.

Certain mortgage notes are held by one of the Company's joint venture
partners. Interest expense in connection with these notes was $3,959
and $1,474 for the six and three months ended June 30, 2001,
respectively; and $5,042 and $2,523 for the six and three months ended
June 30, 2000, respectively. Included in accounts payable and accrued

8. Related-Party Transactions - Continued:

In 1997 and 1999 certain executive officers received loans from the
Company totaling $6,500. These loans are full recourse to the
executives. $6,000 of the loans were issued under the terms of the
employee stock incentive plan, bear interest at 7%, are due in 2007 and
2009 and are secured by Company common stock owned by the executives.
On February 9, 2000, $300 of the $6,000 of loans was forgiven with
respect to three of these officers and charged to compensation expense.
The $500 loan issued in 1997 is non interest bearing and is forgiven
ratably over a five year term. These loans receivable are included in
other assets at June 30, 2001 and December 31, 2000.

Certain Company officers and affiliates have guaranteed mortgages of
$21,750 at one of the Company's joint venture properties and $2,000 at
Greeley Mall.

9. Commitments and Contingencies:

The Company has certain properties subject to noncancellable operating
ground leases. The leases expire at various times through 2070, subject
in some cases to options to extend the terms of the lease. Certain
leases provide for contingent rent payments based on a percentage of
base rental income, as defined. Ground rent expenses, net of amounts
capitalized, were $85 and $77 for the six and three months ended June
30, 2001, respectively. Ground rent expenses, net of amounts
capitalized, were $170 and ($28) for the six and three months ended
June 30, 2000, respectively. There were no contingent rents incurred in
either periods.

Perchloroethylene ("PCE") has been detected in soil and groundwater in
the vicinity of a dry cleaning establishment at North Valley Plaza,
formerly owned by a joint venture of which the Company was a 50%
member. The property was sold on December 18, 1997. The California
Department of Toxic Substances Control ("DTSC") advised the Company in
1995 that very low levels of Dichloroethylene ("1,2 DCE"), a
degradation byproduct of PCE, had been detected in a municipal water
well located 1/4 mile west of the dry cleaners, and that the dry
cleaning facility may have contributed to the introduction of 1,2 DCE
into the water well. According to DTSC, the maximum contaminant level
("MCL") for 1,2 DCE which is permitted in drinking water is 6 parts per
billion ("ppb"). The 1,2 DCE was detected in the water well at a
concentration of 1.2 ppb, which is below the MCL. The Company has
retained an environmental consultant and has initiated extensive
testing of the site. The joint venture agreed (between itself and the
buyer) that it would be responsible for continuing to pursue the
investigation and remediation of impacted soil and groundwater
resulting from releases of PCE from the former dry cleaner.
Approximately $15 and $29 have already been incurred by the joint
venture for remediation, professional and legal fees for the periods
ending June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. An additional $241 remains
reserved by the joint venture as of June 30, 2001, which management has
estimated as its remaining obligation for the remediation. The joint
venture has been sharing costs with former owners of the property.

9. Commitments and Contingencies, Continued:

The Company acquired Fresno Fashion Fair in December 1996. Asbestos has
been detected in structural fireproofing throughout much of the Center.
Testing data conducted by professional environmental consulting firms
indicates that the fireproofing is largely inaccessible to building
occupants and is well adhered to the structural members. Additionally,
airborne concentrations of asbestos were well within OSHA's permissible
exposure limit ("PEL") of .1 fcc. The accounting for this acquisition
includes a reserve of $3,300 to cover future removal of this asbestos,
as necessary. The Company incurred $54 and $24 in remediation costs for
the six months ending June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. An
additional $2,703 remains reserved at June 30, 2001.

10. Redeemable Preferred Stock:

On February 25, 1998, the Company issued 3,627,131 shares of Series A
cumulative convertible redeemable preferred stock ("Series A Preferred
Stock") for proceeds totaling $100,000 in a private placement. The
preferred stock can be converted on a one for one basis into common
stock and will pay a quarterly dividend equal to the greater of $0.46
per share, or the dividend then payable on a share of common stock.

On June 17, 1998, the Company issued 5,487,471 shares of Series B
cumulative convertible redeemable preferred stock ("Series B Preferred
Stock") for proceeds totaling $150,000 in a private placement. The
preferred stock can be converted on a one for one basis into common
stock and will pay a quarterly dividend equal to the greater of $0.46
per share, or the dividend then payable on a share of common stock.

No dividends will be declared or paid on any class of common or other
junior stock to the extent that dividends on Series A Preferred Stock
and Series B Preferred Stock have not been declared and/or paid.

The holders of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock
have redemption rights if a change of control of the Company occurs, as
defined under the respective Articles Supplementary for each series.
Under such circumstances, the holders of the Series A Preferred Stock
and Series B Preferred Stock are entitled to require the Company to
redeem their shares, to the extent the Company has funds legally
available therefor, at a price equal to 105% of their respective
liquidation preference plus accrued and unpaid dividends. The Series A
Preferred Stock holder also has the right to require the Company to
repurchase its shares if the Company fails to be taxed as a REIT for
federal tax purposes at a price equal to 115% of its liquidation
preference plus accrued and unpaid dividends, to the extent funds are
legally available therefor.

11. Subsequent Events:

On August 9, 2001, a dividend/distribution of $0.53 per share was
declared for common stockholders and OP unit holders of record on
August 20, 2001. In addition, the Company declared a dividend of $0.53
on the Company's Series A Preferred Stock and a dividend of $0.53 on
the Company's Series B Preferred Stock. All dividends/distributions
will be payable on September 10, 2001.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations, Continued:

Pacific View (formerly known as Buenaventura Mall), Crossroads
Mall-Boulder and Parklane Mall are currently under redevelopment and
are referred to herein as the "Redevelopment Centers." All other
Centers, excluding the Redevelopment Centers, are referred to herein as
the "Same Centers," unless the context otherwise requires.

Revenues include rents attributable to the accounting practice of
straight lining of rents which requires rent to be recognized each year
in an amount equal to the average rent over the term of the lease,
including fixed rent increases over that period. The amount of straight
lined rents, included in consolidated revenues, recognized for the six
and three months ended June 30, 2001 was ($0.1) million and ($0.2)
million, respectively; compared to $0.6 million and $0.4 million for
the six and three months ended June 30, 2000. Additionally, the Company
recognized through equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures,
$0.7 million and $0.3 million as its pro rata share of straight lined
rents from joint ventures for the six and three months ended June 30,
2001, respectively; compared to $1.1 million and $0.6 million for the
six and three months ended June 30, 2000, respectively. These decreases
resulted from the Company structuring the majority of its new leases
using annual Consumer Price Index ("CPI") increases, which generally do
not require straight lining treatment. The Company believes that using
CPI increases, rather than fixed contractual rent increases, results in
revenue recognition that more closely matches the cash revenue from
each lease and will provide more consistent rent growth throughout the
term of the leases.

The bankruptcy and/or closure of an Anchor, or its sale to a less
desirable retailer, could adversely affect customer traffic in a Center
and thereby reduce the income generated by that Center. Furthermore,
the closing of an Anchor could, under certain circumstances, allow
certain other Anchors or other tenants to terminate their leases or
cease operating their stores at the Center or otherwise adversely
affect occupancy at the Center. Other retail stores at the Centers may
also seek the protection of bankruptcy laws and/or close stores, which
could result in the termination of such tenants and thus cause a
reduction in cash flow generated by the Centers.

In addition, the Company's success in the highly competitive real
estate shopping center business depends upon many other factors,
including general economic conditions, the ability of tenants to make
rent payments, increases or decreases in operating expenses, occupancy
levels, changes in demographics, competition from other centers and
forms of retailing and the ability to renew leases or relet space upon
the expiration or termination of leases.

depreciation at Pacific View Mall.

Income from Unconsolidated Joint Ventures and Management Companies

The income from unconsolidated joint ventures and the Management
Companies was $12.7 million for 2001, compared to income of $13.1
million in 2000. The decrease is primarily due to greater interest
expense from the debt restructuring at SDG Macerich Properties, L.P.

Extraordinary Loss from Early Extinguishment of Debt

In 2001, the Company wrote off $0.2 million of unamortized financing
costs.

Cumulative Effect of Change in Accounting Principle

A loss of $1.0 million in 2000 is a result of implementation of SAB 101

REIT requirements. The Company anticipates that cash generated from
operations, together with cash on hand, will be adequate to fund
capital expenditures which will not be reimbursed by tenants, other
than non-recurring capital expenditures. The following table summarizes
capital expenditures incurred at the Wholly-Owned Centers for the six
months ending June 30,:

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations, Continued:

Liquidity and Capital Resources - Continued:

Management expects similar levels to be incurred in future years for
tenant allowances and deferred charges and to incur between $30.0
million to $75.0 million in 2001 for renovations and expansions.
Capital for major expenditures or major redevelopments has been, and is
expected to continue to be, obtained from equity or debt financings
which include borrowings under the Company's line of credit and
construction loans. However, many factors impact the Company's ability
to access capital, such as its overall debt level, interest rates,
interest coverage ratios and prevailing market conditions.

The Company believes that it will have access to the capital necessary
to expand its business in accordance with its strategies for growth and
maximizing Funds from Operations. The Company presently intends to
obtain additional capital necessary for these purposes through a
combination of debt financings, joint ventures and the sale of non-core
assets. During 1998 and 1999, the Company acquired two portfolios
through joint ventures and raised additional capital in 1999 from the
sale of interests in two properties to one joint venture partner. The
Company believes such joint venture arrangements provide an attractive
alternative to other forms of financing, whether for acquisitions or
other business opportunities.

The Company's total outstanding loan indebtedness at June 30, 2001 was
$2.3 billion (including its pro rata share of joint venture debt). This
equated to a debt to Total Market Capitalization (defined as total debt
of the Company, including its pro rata share of joint venture debt,
plus aggregate market value of outstanding shares of common stock,
assuming full conversion of OP Units and preferred stock into common
stock) ratio of approximately 63% at June 30, 2001. The Company's debt
consists primarily of fixed-rate conventional mortgages payable secured
by individual properties.

The Company has filed a shelf registration statement, effective
December 8, 1997, to sell securities. The shelf registration is for a
total of $500 million of common stock, common stock warrants or common
stock rights. During 1998, the Company sold a total of 7,920,181 shares
of common stock under this shelf registration. The aggregate offering
price of these transactions was approximately $212.9 million, leaving
approximately $287.1 million available under the shelf registration
statement.

The Company has an unsecured line of credit for up to $175.0 million
with a maturity of May 2002. There were $144.0 million of borrowings
outstanding at June 30, 2001.

At June 30, 2001, the Company had cash and cash equivalents available
of $27.4 million.

Operations, Continued:

Funds From Operations

The Company believes that the most significant measure of its
performance is Funds from Operations ("FFO"). FFO is defined by the
National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") to be:
Net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains
(or losses) from debt restructuring, sales or write-down of assets, and
cumulative effect of change in accounting principle, plus depreciation
and amortization (excluding depreciation on personal property and
amortization of loan and financial instrument costs) and after
adjustments for unconsolidated entities. Adjustments for unconsolidated
entities are calculated on the same basis. FFO does not represent cash
flow from operations, as defined by GAAP, and is not necessarily
indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs. FFO, as
presented, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported
by other real estate investment trusts. The following reconciles net
income available to common stockholders to FFO:

1) Calculated based upon basic net income as adjusted to reach
basic FFO. Weighted average number of shares includes the
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding
for 2001 and 2000 assuming the conversion of all outstanding
OP units. As of June 30, 2001, 11.2 million of OP units were
outstanding.

2) The computation of FFO - diluted and diluted average number of
shares outstanding includes the effect of outstanding common
stock options and restricted stock using the treasury method.
The convertible debentures are dilutive for the six and three
months ending June 30, 2001 and 2000, and are included in the
FFO calculation to calculate FFO - diluted. On February 25,
1998, the Company sold $100 million of its Series A Preferred
Stock. On June 17, 1998, the Company sold $150 million of its
Series B Preferred Stock. The preferred stock can be converted
on a one for one basis for common stock. The preferred shares
are assumed converted for purposes of FFO diluted per share,
as they are dilutive to that calculation.

Included in minimum rents were rents attributable to the accounting
practice of straight-lining of rents. The amount of straight-lining of
rents that impacted minimum rents was ($0.1) million and $0.6 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively; and
($0.2) million and $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30,
2001 and 2000, respectively. The decline in straight-lining of rents
from 2000 to 2001 is due to the Company structuring its new leases
using rent increases tied to the change in the CPI rather than using
contractually fixed rent increases. CPI increases do not generally
require straight-lining of rent treatment.

- 26 -
THE MACERICH COMPANY (The Company)

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations, Continued:


Inflation

In the last three years, inflation has not had a significant impact on
the Company because of a relatively low inflation rate. Most of the
leases at the Centers have rent adjustments periodically through the
lease term. These rent increases are either in fixed increments or
based on increases in the CPI. In addition, many of the leases are for
terms of less than ten years, which enables the Company to replace
existing leases with new leases at higher base rents if the rents of
the existing leases are below the then existing market rate.
Additionally, most of the leases require the tenants to pay their pro
rata share of operating expenses. This reduces the Company's exposure
to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.

Seasonality

The shopping center industry is seasonal in nature, particularly in the
fourth quarter during the holiday season when retailer occupancy and
retail sales are typically at their highest levels. In addition,
shopping malls achieve a substantial portion of their specialty
(temporary retailer) rents during the holiday season and the majority
of percentage rent is recognized in the fourth quarter. As a result of
the above, plus the accounting change discussed below for percentage
rent, earnings are generally highest in the fourth quarter of each
year.

New Accounting Pronouncements Issued

In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin 101, "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements"
("SAB 101"), which became effective for periods beginning after
December 15, 1999. This bulletin modified the timing of revenue
recognition for percentage rent received from tenants. This change will
defer recognition of a significant amount of percentage rent for the
first three calendar quarters into the fourth quarter. The Company
applied this accounting change as of January 1, 2000. The cumulative
effect of this change in accounting principle at the adoption date of
January 1, 2000, including the pro rata share of joint ventures, was
approximately $1,750,000.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations, Continued:


New Accounting Pronouncements Issued, Continued:

In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") 133, "Accounting
for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," ("SFAS 133") which
requires companies to record derivatives on the balance sheet, measured
at fair value. Changes in the fair values of those derivatives will be
accounted for depending on the use of the derivative and whether it
qualifies for hedge accounting. The key criterion for hedge accounting
is that the hedging relationship must be highly effective in achieving
offsetting changes in fair value or cash flows. In June 1999, the FASB
issued SFAS 137, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities," which delays the implementation of SFAS 133 from January
1, 2000 to January 1, 2001. In June 2000, the FASB issued SFAS No. 138,
"Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging
Activities - an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133," ("SFAS138"),
which amends the accounting and reporting standards of SFAS 133. As a
result of the adoption of SFAS 133 on January 1, 2001, the Company
recorded a transition adjustment of $9.4 million to accumulated other
comprehensive income related to treasury rate lock transactions settled
in prior years. The entire transition adjustment was reflected in the
quarter ended March 31, 2001. The transition adjustment of $9.4
million, less minority interest of $2.3 million and amortization of
$0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001, would be
subtracted from net income to arrive at comprehensive income of $16.4
million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. The Company expects
that $1.3 million will be reclassified from accumulated other
comprehensive income to earnings for the year ended December 31, 2001.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, the Company reclassified $0.3
million from accumulated other comprehensive income to earnings.

Item 3
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Company's primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk. The
Company has managed and will continue to manage interest rate risk by
(1) maintaining a conservative ratio of fixed rate, long-term debt to
total debt such that variable rate exposure is kept at an acceptable
level, (2) reducing interest rate exposure on certain long-term
variable rate debt through the use of interest rate caps with
appropriately matching maturities, (3) using treasury rate locks where
appropriate to fix rates on anticipated debt transactions, and (4)
taking advantage of favorable market conditions for long-term debt
and/or equity.

The following table sets forth information as of June 30, 2001
concerning the Company's long term debt obligations, including
principal cash flows by scheduled maturity, weighted average interest
rates and estimated fair value ("FV").

========== ============ =========== ============ =========== ============= ============= =============
</TABLE>

On May 2, 2001, the Company refinanced the $36.5 million fixed rate
debt on Capitola Mall maturing in 2001. The prior loan was paid in full
and a new note was issued for $48.5 million bearing interest at a fixed
rate of 7.13% and maturing May 15, 2011. All debt maturing in 2001
reflects the amortization of principal on existing debt.

In addition, the Company has assessed the market risk for its variable
rate debt and believes that a 1% increase in interest rates would
decrease future earnings and cash flows by approximately $3.7 million
per year based on $374.4 million outstanding at June 30, 2001.

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

THIS AGREEMENT, dated as of the 11th day of May, 2001, is between THE

(the "Executive").

WHEREAS, on May 8, 1997, the Company granted to the Executive stock
options to purchase an aggregate of 75,000 shares of the Company's common stock,
$.01 par value (the "Common Stock"), with a per share exercise price of $26.50
(the "Existing Options") pursuant to Option Agreements originally issued as of
such date (the "Existing Option Agreements");

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, the Existing Options are 100% vested
and exercisable;

WHEREAS, the Committee under The Macerich Company Amended and Restated
1994 Incentive Plan, as amended (the "Plan") has approved, and the Company's
Board of Directors has ratified, the cancellation of the Existing Options in
exchange for the grant of unrestricted shares of Common Stock under the Plan, at
a ratio of 1 share for each Existing Option to purchase 10 shares of Common
Stock, for an aggregate 7,500 new shares (the "Shares"); and

WHEREAS, the grant of the Shares, upon the terms and conditions set
forth herein, in exchange for the cancellation of the Existing Options is
conditioned upon the Executive's cancellation of the Existing Options and the
Executive's surrender of the Existing Option Agreements;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises made herein, the
parties agree as follows:

1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meaning assigned to such terms in the Plan.

2. Option Surrender. In consideration of the Company's grant of the
Shares, the Executive agrees that the Existing Options are hereby cancelled and
the Executive shall concurrently herewith surrender the Existing Option
Agreements. The Executive will have no further rights under the Existing Option
Agreements or with respect to the Existing Options. The Executive's rights in
respect of the Shares will solely be governed by the terms of this Agreement and

payment by or on behalf of the Executive and/or to deduct from other

respect thereto are subject to, and the Executive agrees to be bound by, all of

extent that such provisions are applicable to awards of unrestricted shares of
Common Stock. The Executive acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan, which is
made a part hereof by this reference, and agrees to be bound by the terms
thereof.

and their resale is subject to compliance with all applicable federal and state
laws, rules and regulations (including but not limited to federal and state
securities laws) and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory or
governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, be
necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Executive agrees, if requested
by the Company, to provide such assurances and representations to the Company as
the Committee may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all
legal requirements.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have duly executed this Agreement as of
the date first written above.

stock, $.01 par value (the "Common Stock"), with a per share exercise price of

WHEREAS, the grant of the Stock Units, upon the terms and conditions
set forth herein, in exchange for the cancellation of the Existing Options is
conditioned upon the Executive's cancellation of the Existing Options and the

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises made herein, the

Maryland law.

4. Vesting of Stock Units. The Stock Units shall be fully vested and
non-forfeitable at all times.

THE MACERICH COMPANY (The Company)

EXHIBIT 10.2 - Continued:


5. Dividend and Voting Rights.

(a) Limitations on Rights Associated with Stock Units. The
Executive shall have no rights as a stockholder of the Company, no dividend
rights (except as expressly provided in Section 5(b) with respect to Dividend
Equivalent Rights) and no voting rights, with respect to the Stock Units and any
shares of Common Stock underlying or issuable in respect of such Stock Units
until such shares of Common Stock are actually issued to and held of record by
the Executive. Except as provided in Section 5(b), no adjustments will be made
for dividends or other rights of a holder for which the record date is prior to
the issuance of the stock certificate.

(b) Dividend Equivalent Rights Distributions. As of any
applicable dividend or distribution payment date, the Executive shall receive a
payment in the same consideration as paid to stockholders in an amount equal to
the amount of the Dividend Equivalent Rights multiplied by the number of Stock
Units in the Executive's Stock Unit Account as of the applicable dividend
payment date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Stock Units are not credited
to the Executive's Stock Unit Account prior to any dividend payment date after
the date hereof, Executive shall be entitled to an amount in cash, on or as soon
as practicable after the dividend payment date, equal to the product of the per
share dividend and 6,000, without interest.

6. Distributions with Respect to Stock Units

(a) Timing and Manner of Distributions. The Stock Units
credited to the Executive's Stock Unit Account will be distributed in
shares of Common Stock in three equal installments of 33 1/3% on each
of the first three anniversaries of the date of this Agreement or, if
his employment earlier terminates, within 30 days after such
termination of employment or if there is a Change in Control Event,
immediately prior thereto. Fractional share interests may be
accumulated but shall not be issued. The Executive shall be entitled to
an amount in cash in lieu of any fractional share interests that remain
upon the final distribution under this Agreement.

(b) Change in Timing of Distributions. Notwithstanding Section
6(a) above, the Executive may elect to change the time of distribution
for either of the installment of Stock Unit distributions due on the
second or third anniversaries of the date of this Agreement by filing a
written change of distribution election form with the Committee on a
form approved by the Committee; provided, however, that (1) no such
election shall be effective until 12 months after such election is
filed with the Committee and (2) no more than three such new elections
shall be valid.

(c) Early Distributions. Executive shall be permitted to elect
to withdraw not less than 50% of the Stock Units credited to his Stock
Unit Account, reduced by the withdrawal penalty described below, prior
to the applicable distribution dates ("Early Distributions"), subject
to the following restrictions:

(1) The election to take an Early Distribution shall
be made in writing on a form provided by and
filed with the Committee;

- 37 -
THE MACERICH COMPANY (The Company)

EXHIBIT 10.2 - Continued:

(2) The amount of the Early Distribution shall equal
90% of the number of Stock Units that the Executive has
elected to withdraw; provided that if such percentage results
in fractional shares, the number of shares subject to the
distribution shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number
and any fractional share interests shall be paid in cash based
on the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the
date that Early Distribution is paid; and

(3) The remaining 10% of the Stock Units that the
Executive has elected to withdraw shall be permanently
forfeited, and the Executive shall have no rights with respect
to such forfeited Stock Units.

(d) Distribution for Unforeseeable Emergencies.

(1) The Executive may request a distribution for an
Unforeseeable Emergency without penalty of an amount not
greater than the number of Stock Units credited to his
Account. Such distribution for an Unforeseeable Emergency
shall be subject to approval by the Committee in its sole
discretion and may be made only to the extent necessary to
satisfy the hardship. The Committee may treat a distribution
as necessary for an Unforeseeable Emergency if it relies on
the Executive's written representation, without actual
knowledge to the contrary, that the hardship cannot reasonably
be relieved (1) through timely reimbursement or compensation
by insurance or otherwise or (2) by liquidation of the
Executive's assets, to the extent the liquidation of such
assets would not itself cause severe financial hardship.

(2) For the purposes of this Section 6(d), an
"Unforeseeable Emergency" shall mean a severe financial
hardship to the Executive resulting from a sudden and
unexpected illness or accident of the Executive or a dependent
of the Executive, loss to the Executive's property due to
casualty, or other similar extraordinary and unforeseeable
circumstances arising as a result of events beyond the
Executive's control. The circumstances that will constitute an
Unforeseeable Emergency will depend upon the facts of each
case. Examples of what are not considered to be Unforeseeable
Emergencies include the need to send the Executive's child to
college or the desire to purchase a home, absent destruction
or severe damage to the Executive's existing home.

7. Adjustments Upon Specified Events. Upon the occurrence of certain
events relating to the Company's stock contemplated by Section 6.2 of the Plan,
the Committee shall make adjustments as it deems appropriate in the number and
kind of securities or other consideration that may become payable with respect
to the Stock Units. If any adjustment shall be made under Section 6.2 of the
Plan, the Stock Units may be payable in the securities or other consideration
payable in respect of the Stock Units. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the
extent that such consideration includes any cash, the commitment hereunder shall
become an unsecured promise to pay an amount equal to such cash (with earnings
attributable thereto as if such amount had been invested, pursuant to policies
established by the Committee, in an interest bearing, FDIC insured (subject to
applicable insurance limits) deposits of a depository institution selected by
the Committee) in accordance with the distribution dates of the Stock Units.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Stock Units shall continue to be subject to
such proportionate and equitable adjustments (if any) under Section 6.2 of the
Plan as the Committee determines to be necessary or appropriate, in the number,
kind and/or character of shares of Common Stock or other securities, property
and/or other rights payable in respect of the Stock Units and Stock Unit Account
credited under the Plan. All rights of the Executive are subject to those
adjustments.

- 38 -
THE MACERICH COMPANY (The Company)

EXHIBIT 10.2 - Continued:

8. Tax Withholding. Upon payment of Dividend Equivalent Rights and/or
the distribution of shares of Common Stock in respect of the Executive's Stock
Unit Account, the Company shall be entitled to require a cash payment by or on
behalf of the Executive and/or to deduct from other compensation payable to the
Executive any sums required by federal, state or local tax law to be withheld
with respect to such payment or distribution. Alternatively, with respect to the
distribution of shares, the Executive may elect subject to approval by the
Committee and in such manner and at such time prior to the applicable tax date
as may be permitted or required under Section 6.5 of the Plan and rules
established by the Committee, to have the Company reduce the number of shares to
be delivered by the appropriate number of shares valued at their then Fair
Market Value to satisfy such withholding obligation.

9. Plan. The grant of the Stock Units and all rights of the Executive
with respect thereto are subject to, and the Executive agrees to be bound by,
all of the terms and conditions of the Plan, incorporated herein by reference,
to the extent that such provisions are applicable to Awards granted to Eligible
Employees. The Executive acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan, which is
made a part hereof by this reference, and agrees to be bound by the terms
thereof. Unless otherwise expressly provided in other sections of this
Agreement, provisions of the Plan that confer discretionary authority on the
Committee do not (and shall not be deemed to) create any rights in the Executive
unless such rights are expressly set forth herein or are otherwise in the sole
discretion of the Committee so conferred by appropriate action of the Committee
under the Plan after the date hereof.

10. Limitation on Executive's Rights. This Agreement creates only a
contractual obligation on the part of the Company as to amounts payable and
shall not be construed as creating a trust. The Plan, in and of itself, does not
have any assets. The Executive shall have only the rights of a general unsecured
creditor of the Company with respect to amounts credited and Dividend Equivalent
Rights and rights no greater than the right to receive the Common Stock (or
equivalent value) as a general unsecured creditor with respect to the Stock
Units, as and when payable thereunder.


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have duly executed this Agreement as of
the date first written above.
