     SECTION 1.01. ANNUAL MEETING. Simon Property Group, Inc. (the
"Corporation") shall hold an annual meeting of its stockholders to elect
directors and transact any other business within its powers, at such place, on
such date, and at such time as shall be set by the Board of Directors. Except as
the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (the "Charter"),
these By-Laws, or statute provides otherwise, any business may be considered at
an annual meeting without the purpose of the meeting having been specified in
the notice. Failure to hold an annual meeting does not invalidate the
Corporation's existence or affect any otherwise valid corporate acts.

     SECTION 1.02. SPECIAL MEETING. At any time in the interval between annual
meetings, a special meeting of the stockholders may be called by the Chairman of
the Board, or a Co-Chairman of the Board or the President or by a majority of
the Board of Directors by vote at a meeting or in writing (addressed to the
Secretary of the Corporation) with or without a meeting.

     SECTION 1.03. PLACE OF MEETINGS. Meetings of stockholders shall be held at
such place in the United States as is set from time to time by the Board of

more than 60 days before each stockholders meeting, the Secretary shall give
written notice of the meeting to each stockholder entitled to vote at the
meeting and each other stockholder entitled to notice of the meeting. The notice
shall state the time and place of the meeting and, if the meeting is a special
meeting or notice of the purpose is required by statute, the purpose of the
meeting. Notice is given to a stockholder when it is personally delivered to
him, left at his residence or usual place of business, or mailed to him at his
address as it appears on the records of the Corporation. Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions, each person who is entitled to notice waives notice if he
or she before or after the meeting signs a waiver of the notice which is filed
with the records of stockholders'

otherwise provided by Section 229 of the General Corporation Law of the State of
Delaware).

     SECTION 1.05. QUORUM; VOTING. Unless any statute or the Charter provides
otherwise, at a meeting of stockholders the presence in person or by proxy of
stockholders entitled to cast a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast at
the meeting constitutes a quorum, and the affirmative vote of a majority of all
the votes cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present is sufficient to
approve any matter which properly comes before the meeting, except that a
plurality of all the votes cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present is
sufficient to elect a director.

     SECTION 1.06. ADJOURNMENTS. Whether or not a quorum is present, a meeting
of stockholders convened on the date for which it was called may be adjourned
from time to time by a majority vote of the stockholders present in person or by
proxy entitled to vote without notice other than by announcement at the meeting.
Any business which might have been transacted at the meeting as originally
notified may be deferred and transacted at any such adjourned meeting at which a
quorum shall be present.

     SECTION 1.07. GENERAL RIGHT TO VOTE; PROXIES. Unless the Charter provides
otherwise, each outstanding share of stock, regardless of class, is entitled to
one vote on each matter submitted to a vote at a meeting of stockholders. In all
elections for directors, each share of stock entitled to vote may be voted for
as many individuals as there are directors to be elected and for whose election
the share is entitled to be voted. A stockholder may vote the stock he or she
owns of record either in person or by proxy authorized by an instrument in
writing or by a transmission permitted by law. Unless a proxy provides
otherwise, it is not valid more than three years after its date.

     SECTION 1.08. LIST OF STOCKHOLDERS. The Secretary shall prepare and make,
at least ten days before every election of directors, a complete list of the
stockholders entitled to vote, arranged in alphabetical order and showing the
address of each stockholder and the number of shares of each stockholder. Such
list shall be open at the place where the election is to be held for said ten
days, to the examination of any stockholder, and shall be produced and kept at
the time and place of election during the whole time thereof, and subject to the
inspection of any stockholder who may be present.

power and duty to determine whether a nomination or any business proposed to be
brought before the meeting was made in accordance with the any proposed
nomination or business is not in compliance with this Section and Section 1.12,
to declare that such defective nomination or proposal be disregarded. No person
shall be qualified to serve as a director unless nominated in accordance with
this Section 1.09.

     SECTION 1.10. CONDUCT OF VOTING. At all meetings of stockholders, unless
the voting is conducted by inspectors, the proxies and ballots shall be
received, and all questions touching the qualification of voters and the
validity of proxies, the acceptance or rejection of votes and procedures for the
conduct of business not otherwise specified by these By-Laws, the Charter or
law, shall be decided or determined by the chairman of the meeting. Unless
required by law, no vote need be by ballot and voting need not be conducted by
an inspector. No candidate for election as a director at a meeting shall serve
as an inspector thereat.

     SECTION 1.11. STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS. For any stockholder proposal to be
presented in connection with an annual meeting of stockholders of the

place of one which is alleged to have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, or the

     SECTION 7.04. CONTRACTS. To the extent permitted by applicable law, and
except as otherwise prescribed by the Charter or these By-Laws with respect to
certificates for shares, the Board of Directors may authorize any officer,

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

     SECTION 8.01. PROCEDURE. Any indemnification, or payment of expenses, for
which mandatory payments must be made under the Charter, in advance of the final
disposition of any proceeding, shall be made promptly, and in


                                      -13-
<Page>

any event within 60 days, upon the written request of the director or officer
entitled to seek indemnification (the "Indemnified Party"). The right to
indemnification and advances hereunder shall be enforceable by the Indemnified
Party in any court of competent jurisdiction, if (i) the Corporation denies such
request, in whole or in part, or (ii) no disposition thereof is made within 60
days. The Indemnified Party's costs and expenses incurred in connection with
successfully establishing his right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in
any such action shall also be reimbursed by the Corporation. It shall be a
defense to any action for advance for expenses that (a) a determination has been
made that the facts then known to those making the determination would preclude
indemnification or (b) the Corporation has not received both (i) an undertaking
as required by law to repay such advances in the event it shall ultimately be
determined that the standard of conduct has not been met and (ii) a written
affirmation by the Indemnified Party of such Indemnified Party's good faith
belief that the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by the
Corporation has been met.

     SECTION 8.02. EXCLUSIVITY, ETC. The indemnification and advance of expenses
provided by the Charter and these By-Laws shall not be deemed exclusive of any
other rights to which a person seeking indemnification or advance of expenses
may be entitled under any law (common or statutory), or any agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors or other provision that is consistent
with law, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action in another
capacity while holding office or while employed by or acting as agent for the
Corporation, shall continue in respect of all events occurring while a person
was a director or officer after such person has ceased to be a director or
officer, and shall inure to the benefit of the estate, heirs, executors and
administrators of such person. All rights to indemnification and advance of
expenses under the Charter of the Corporation and hereunder shall be deemed to
be a contract between the Corporation and each director or officer of the
Corporation who serves or served in such capacity at any time while this By-Law
is in effect. Nothing herein shall prevent the amendment of this By-Law,
provided that no such amendment shall diminish the rights of any person
hereunder with respect to events occurring or claims made before its adoption or
as to claims made after its adoption in respect of events occurring before its
adoption. Any repeal or modification of this By-Law shall not in any way
diminish any rights to indemnification or advance of expenses of such director
or officer or the obligations of the Corporation arising hereunder with respect
to events occurring, or claims made, while this By-Law or any provision hereof
is in force.

"Seal" adjacent to the signature of the person authorized to sign the document
on behalf of the Corporation.

person to vote such shares, in which case such person shall be entitled to vote
such shares upon the production of a certified copy of such resolution.

     SECTION 9.07. RELIANCE. Each director, officer, employee and agent of the
Corporation shall, in the performance of his or her duties with respect to the
Corporation, be fully justified and protected with regard to any act or failure
to act in reliance in good faith upon the books of account or other records of
the Corporation, upon an opinion of counsel or upon reports made to the
Corporation by any of its officers or employees or by the adviser, accountants,
appraisers or other experts or consultants selected by the Board of Directors or
officers of the Corporation, regardless of whether such counsel or expert may
also be a director.

     SECTION 9.08. CERTAIN RIGHTS OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS.
The directors shall have no responsibility to devote their full time to the
affairs of the Corporation. Any director or officer, employee or agent of the
Corporation, in his or her personal capacity or in a capacity as an affiliate,

interests and engage in business activities similar to or in addition to those
of or relating to the Corporation.

election of directors which are cast on the matter at any meeting of the
stockholders called for that purpose (provided that notice of such proposed
repeal, alteration, amendment or rescission is included in the notice of such
meeting).
