ITEM 7.01   Regulation FD Disclosure.

On November 30, 2017, Simon Property Group, Inc., the general partner of Simon Property Group, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), issued a press release announcing the terms of the public offering of the senior notes of the Operating Partnership described below. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

This Item 7.01 and the related Exhibit 99.1 are being furnished and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or incorporated by reference into any registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933.

ITEM 8.01   Other Events.

On November 30, 2017, the Operating Partnership entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Barclays Capital Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., RBC Capital Markets, LLC and SMBC Nikko Securities America, Inc., as representatives of the underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), in connection with the public offering of $600,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Operating Partnership’s 2.750% notes due 2023 (the “2023 Notes”) and $750,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Operating Partnership’s 3.375% notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes,” and together with the 2023 Notes, the “Notes”).  The Underwriting Agreement contains representations and warranties and covenants that are customary for transactions of this type.  In addition, the Operating Partnership has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities on customary terms.  The Underwriters have performed, and expect in the future to perform, investment banking and advisory services for which they have received, and may continue to receive, customary fees and expenses, and affiliates of the Underwriters have performed, and expect in the future to perform, commercial lending services, for the Operating Partnership and its affiliates from time to time.

The Notes were issued on December 11, 2017 pursuant to the thirty-seventh supplemental indenture, dated as of December 11, 2017 (the “37th Supplemental Indenture”), to the Operating Partnership’s Indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of November 26, 1996, each between the Operating Partnership and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor to The Chase Manhattan Bank), as trustee.

The 2023 Notes bear interest at a rate of 2.750% per annum and mature on June 1, 2023. The 2027 Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.375% per annum and mature on December 1, 2027. Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1, beginning June 1, 2018 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest will be paid to holders of record of such Notes registered at the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day preceding the related Interest Payment Date.

The Operating Partnership may redeem the Notes of either series at its option at any time, in whole or from time to time in part, on not less than 15 and not more than 45 days’ prior written notice mailed to the holders of the Notes to be redeemed. The Notes of each series will be redeemable at a price equal to the principal amount of such Notes being redeemed, plus unpaid interest accrued to, but not including, the date of redemption and a “make-whole” premium calculated under the 37th Supplemental Indenture (unless the 2023 Notes are redeemed on or after March 1, 2023 or the 2027 Notes are redeemed on or after September 1, 2027, in which case no “make-whole” premium will be payable).

The Notes will be subject to customary events of default, including, among other things, nonpayment, failure to comply with the other agreements in the Indenture for a period of 90 days after notice, and certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization.

The foregoing descriptions are qualified in their entirety by the Underwriting Agreement and the 37th Supplemental Indenture (including the forms of notes attached thereto), respectively.  A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1 and a copy of the 37th Supplemental Indenture is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and each is incorporated herein by reference.
