“The strength of our portfolio of market-dominant malls and our capital structure provides a platform for growth in an improving operating, leasing and investment environment. Our team has worked hard and executed well to generate same-center NOI and FFO growth, as well as source attractive new opportunities. Operating from a position of strength, we are capitalizing on this position in 2012 with our mall renovation and redevelopment program, additional outlet center projects, including our recently announced development, The Outlet Shoppes at Atlanta and other opportunities that we see in the market.”

JOINT VENTURE ACTIVITY
During the quarter, CBL and TIAA-CREF closed their $1.09 billion real estate joint venture to invest in market-dominant shopping malls. TIAA-CREF received a 50% pari passu interest in three enclosed malls, including Oak Park Mall in Kansas City, KS; West County Center in St. Louis, MO; and CoolSprings Galleria in Nashville, TN, and a 12% interest in Pearland Town Center in Houston, TX. In total, CBL reduced outstanding debt balances by approximately $486 million through TIAA-CREF's assumption of approximately $267 million of property-specific debt and cash proceeds of approximately $219 million. CBL continues to manage and lease the properties.

FINANCING aCTIVITY
In December 2011, CBL closed four separate loans totaling $383.0 million. After repayment of the existing loan balances, the new financing activity generated excess proceeds of more than $160.0 million. CBL closed a $140.0 million ten-year non-recourse loan secured by Cross Creek Mall in Fayetteville, NC, with a fixed interest rate of 4.54% and closed a $60.0 million ten-year non-recourse loan secured by The Outlet Shoppes at Oklahoma City in Oklahoma City, OK, bearing a fixed interest rate of 5.73%.

CBL closed a five-year extension and amendment of the existing non-recourse loan secured by St. Clair Square in Fairview Heights (St. Louis, MO), IL, increasing the loan amount to $125.0 million. The interest rate was reduced to LIBOR plus 300 basis points. CBL also closed a recourse loan secured by The Promenade in D'Iberville, MS, with a three-year initial term and two two-year extension options. The loan bears interest of 75% of LIBOR plus 175 basis points.

In total during 2011, CBL completed more than $2.3 billion in financing activity, including the extension and modification of three credit facilities totaling $1.15 billion and property-specific debt totaling $1.18 billion.

DISPOSITIONS
During the fourth quarter, CBL completed the sale of Westridge Square, a community center located in Greensboro, NC. Subsequent to the quarter end, CBL disposed of Oak Hollow Square, a community center located in High Point, NC. The aggregate sales price for the two properties was $40.3 million. Proceeds were used to reduce the outstanding balance of an unsecured term facility that was originally used to acquire the centers.

DEVELOPMENT
In January 2012, CBL announced that it formed a 75/25 joint venture with Horizon Group Properties, Inc. to develop The Outlet Shoppes at Atlanta in Atlanta (Woodstock), GA. Once complete, the 370,000-square-foot project will be a premier outlet destination for tourists and residents of this market. Construction is expected to begin in spring 2012, with the grand opening scheduled for late summer 2013. CBL and Horizon are co-developing the project with Horizon responsible for leasing and management.
OUTLOOK AND GUIDANCE
Based on today's outlook, the Company is providing 2012 FFO guidance of $1.95 - $2.03 per share. The full year guidance assumes $3.0 million to $5.0 million of outparcel sales and same-center NOI growth in the range of 0.0% to 1.0%, excluding applicable lease termination fees. The guidance excludes the impact of any future unannounced acquisitions or dispositions. The Company expects to update its annual guidance after each quarter's results.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Funds From Operations
FFO is a widely used measure of the operating performance of real estate companies that supplements net income (loss) determined in accordance with GAAP. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains or losses on sales of operating properties, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and noncontrolling interests. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures and noncontrolling interests are calculated on the same basis. In October 2011, NAREIT clarified that FFO should exclude the impact of losses on impairment of depreciable properties. The Company has calculated FFO for all periods presented in accordance with this clarification. The Company defines FFO allocable to its common shareholders as defined above by NAREIT less dividends on preferred stock. The Company's method of calculating FFO allocable to its common shareholders may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

The Company believes that FFO provides an additional indicator of the operating performance of its properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which assumes the value of real estate assets declines predictably over time. Since values of well-maintained real estate assets have historically risen with market conditions, the Company believes that FFO enhances investors' understanding of its operating performance. The use of FFO as an indicator of financial performance is influenced not only by the operations of the Company's properties and interest rates, but also by its capital structure. The Company presents both FFO of its operating partnership and FFO allocable to its common shareholders, as it believes that both are useful performance measures. The Company believes FFO of its operating partnership is a useful performance measure since it conducts substantially all of its business through its operating partnership and, therefore, it reflects the performance of the properties in absolute terms regardless of the ratio of ownership interests of the Company's common shareholders and the noncontrolling interest in the operating partnership. The Company believes FFO allocable to its common shareholders is a useful performance measure because it is the performance measure that is most directly comparable to net income (loss) attributable to its common shareholders.

In the reconciliation of net income attributable to the Company's common shareholders to FFO allocable to its common shareholders, located in this earnings release, the Company makes an adjustment to add back noncontrolling interest in income (loss) of its operating partnership in order to arrive at FFO of its operating partnership. The Company then applies a percentage

-MORE-




CBL Reports Fourth Quarter Results

February 8, 2012

to FFO of its operating partnership to arrive at FFO allocable to its common shareholders. The percentage is computed by taking the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period and dividing it by the sum of the weighted average number of common shares and the weighted average number of operating partnership units outstanding during the period.

FFO does not represent cash flows from operations as defined by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund all cash flow needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) for purposes of evaluating the Company's operating performance or to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.

During 2011, the Company recorded a gain on extinguishment of debt from discontinued operations. Considering the significance and nature of this item, the Company believes that it is important to identify the impact of the change on its FFO measures for a reader to have a complete understanding of the Company's results of operations. Therefore, the Company has also presented its FFO measures excluding this item.

Same-Center Net Operating Income
NOI is a supplemental measure of the operating performance of the Company's shopping centers. The Company defines NOI as operating revenues (rental revenues, tenant reimbursements and other income) less property operating expenses (property operating, real estate taxes and maintenance and repairs).

Similar to FFO, the Company computes NOI based on its pro rata share of both consolidated and unconsolidated properties. The Company's definition of NOI may be different than that used by other companies and, accordingly, the Company's NOI may not be comparable to that of other companies. A reconciliation of same-center NOI to net income is located at the end of this earnings release.

Since NOI includes only those revenues and expenses related to the operations of its shopping center properties, the Company believes that same-center NOI provides a measure that reflects trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs and the impact of those trends on the Company's results of operations. Additionally, there are instances when tenants terminate their leases prior to the scheduled expiration date and pay the Company one-time, lump-sum termination fees. These one-time lease termination fees may distort same-center NOI trends and may result in same-center NOI that is not indicative of the ongoing operations of the Company's shopping center properties. Therefore, the Company believes that presenting same-center NOI, excluding lease termination fees, is useful to investors.

Pro Rata Share of Debt
The Company presents debt based on its pro rata ownership share (including the Company's pro rata share of unconsolidated affiliates and excluding noncontrolling interests' share of consolidated properties) because it believes this provides investors a clearer understanding of the Company's total debt obligations which affect the Company's liquidity. A reconciliation of the Company's pro rata share of debt to the amount of debt on the Company's consolidated balance sheet is located at the end of this earnings release.
