SIMON PROPERTY GROUP,
L.P.



6.75% Note due 2014


 


Simon Property Group, L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership (the “Issuer,” which term includes any successor under the
Indenture (as defined below)), for value received, hereby promises to pay to
Cede & Co. or its registered assigns, the principal amount of FIVE
HUNDRED MILLION dollars on May 15, 2014 (the “Maturity Date”), unless
earlier redeemed as described on the reverse hereof, and to pay interest on the
outstanding principal amount hereof from May 15, 2009, semi-annually in
arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year (each, an “Interest
Payment Date”), commencing on November 15, 2009, at the rate of 6.75% per
annum, until payment of said principal amount has been made or duly provided
for.


 


The interest so payable and punctually paid or duly
provided for on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Holder in whose
name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered in the
Security Register applicable to this Note at the close of business on the “Record
Date” for such payment, which shall be the 15th calendar day immediately prior to such
Interest Payment Date, regardless of whether such day is a Business Day (as
defined below).  Any interest not so
punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the
Holder on such Regular Record Date, and may be paid to the Holder in whose name
this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of
business on a subsequent record date for the payment of such defaulted interest
(which shall be not be more than 15 calendar days and less than 10 calendar
days prior to the date of the payment of such defaulted interest) established
by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Issuer to the Holders of the
Notes not less than 10 calendar days preceding such subsequent record date, or
may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements
of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such
notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully 


 

















 


provided in the
Indenture.  Interest on this Note shall
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.


 


Interest payable on this Note on any Interest Payment
Date or date of redemption shall be the amount of interest accrued from and
including the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date (or from and
including May 15, 2009, in the case of the initial period) to but
excluding the applicable Interest Payment Date or date of redemption, as the
case may be.  If any date for the payment
of principal, premium, if any, interest on, or any other amount with respect
to, this Note (each a “Payment Date”) falls on a day that is not a
Business Day, the principal, premium, if any, or interest payable with respect
to such Payment Date shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the
same force and effect as if made on such Payment Date, and no interest shall
accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Payment Date
to such next succeeding Business Day.  “Business
Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or a Sunday on which banking
institutions in The City of New York are open for business.


 


The principal of this Note payable on the Maturity
Date or earlier date of redemption shall be paid against presentation and
surrender of this Note at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for
that purpose in The Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York or The City of
Chicago.  The Issuer hereby initially
designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in The City of New York as
the office to be maintained by it where Notes may be presented for payment,
registration of transfer or exchange, and where notices to or demands upon the
Issuer in respect of the Notes or the Indenture referred to on the reverse
hereof may be served.


 


Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest
in respect of this Note shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available
funds in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time
of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.


 


Reference is made to the further provisions of this
Note set forth on the reverse hereof after the Trustee’s Certificate of
Authentication.  Such further provisions
shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this
place.


 


This Note shall not be entitled to the benefits of the
Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose until the Certificate of
Authentication hereon shall have been signed by the Trustee under such
Indenture.

REVERSE OF NOTE


 


SIMON PROPERTY GROUP,
L.P.


 


6.75% Note due 2014


 


This security is one of a duly authorized issue of
debt securities of the Issuer (hereinafter called the “Securities”), issued or
to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of November 26,
1996 (herein called the “Indenture”), duly executed and delivered by the Issuer
to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor to The Chase
Manhattan Bank), as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes
any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect to the series of
Securities of which this Note is a part), to which Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto relating to this Note (including, without limitation, the
Twenty-Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 15, 2009, and the
Twenty-Third Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 11, 2009, between
the Issuer and the Trustee) reference is hereby made for a description of
the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities
thereunder of the Trustee, the Issuer and the Holders of the Securities, and of
the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and
delivered and for the definition of capitalized terms used hereby and not
otherwise defined.  The Securities may be
issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various
aggregate principal amounts, may mature at different times, may bear interest
(if any) at different rates, may be subject to different redemption
provisions (if any), and may otherwise vary as provided in the Indenture or any
indenture supplemental thereto.  This
Security is one of a series designated as the Simon Property Group, L.P. 6.75%
Notes due 2014,  currently limited in
aggregate principal amount to $1,100,000,000 (the “Notes”).


 


In case an Event of Default with respect to the Notes
shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal amount of the Notes and
the Make-Whole Amount may be declared, and in certain cases shall automatically
be, accelerated and thereupon become due and payable, in the manner, with the
effect, and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.


 


The Notes may be redeemed at any time at the option of
the Issuer, in whole or from time to time in part, at a redemption price equal
to the sum of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed
plus accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date and (ii) the Make-Whole
Amount, if any, with respect to such Notes. 
If the Notes are redeemed on or after 90 days prior to the Maturity
Date, the redemption price shall not include the Make-Whole Amount.  Notice of any optional redemption shall be
given to Holders at their addresses, as shown in the Security Register for the
Notes, not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the date fixed for
redemption.  The notice of redemption
shall specify, among other items, the redemption price and the principal amount
of the Notes to be redeemed.


 


The Indenture contains provisions permitting the
Issuer and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a
majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time
Outstanding of all series to be affected (voting as one class), evidenced as
provided in the Indenture, to execute supplemental indentures adding any
provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of
the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or modifying in any manner the
rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series; provided, however, that
no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Security so affected, (i) change the Stated Maturity of the
principal of, or premium, (if any) or any installment of principal of or
interest on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate
or amount of interest thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption or
acceleration thereof, or adversely affect any right of repayment at the option
of the Holder of any Security, or change any Place of Payment where, or the
currency or currencies, currency unit or units or composite currency or
currencies in which, the principal of any Security or any premium or interest
thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the 


 


5

















 


enforcement of any such
payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof, or (ii) reduce the
aforesaid percentage of Securities the Holders of which are required to consent
to any such supplemental indenture, or (iii) reduce the percentage of
Securities the Holders of which are required to consent to any waiver of
compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or any waiver of certain
defaults and consequences thereunder or to reduce the quorum or voting
requirements set forth in the Indenture, or (iv) effect certain other
changes to the Indenture or any supplemental indenture or in the rights of
Holders of the Securities.  The Indenture
also permits the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of any series (or, in the case of certain defaults or Events of
Default, all series of Securities), on behalf of the Holders of all the
Securities of such series (or all of the Securities, as the case may be), to
waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and
certain past defaults or Events of Default under the Indenture and their
consequences, prior to any declaration accelerating the maturity of such
Securities, or subject to certain conditions, rescind a declaration of
acceleration and its consequences with respect to such Securities.  Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of
this Note (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be
conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this
Note and of any Note that may be issued in exchange or substitution hereof,
irrespective of whether or not any notation thereof is made upon this Note or such
other Note.


 


No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision
of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium,
if any, and interest on this Note in the manner, at the respective times, at
the rate and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.


 


Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture
to the contrary, no recourse shall be had, whether by levy or execution or
otherwise, for the payment of any sums due under the Securities, including,
without limitation, the principal of, premium, if any, or interest payable
under the Securities, or for the payment or performance of any obligation
under, or for any claim based on, the Indenture or otherwise in respect
thereof, against any partner of the Issuer, whether limited or general,
including Simon Property Group, Inc. or such partner’s assets or against
any principal, shareholder, officer, director, trustee or employee of such
partner.  It is expressly understood that
the sole remedies under the Securities and the Indenture, or under any other
document with respect to the Securities, against such parties with respect to
such amounts, obligations or claims shall be against the Issuer.


 


This Note is issuable only in registered form without
coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof.  This Note may be exchanged for
a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations at
the office or agency of the Issuer in The Borough of Manhattan, The City of New
York or The City of Chicago, in the manner and subject to the limitations
provided in the Indenture, but without the payment of any service charge,
except for any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection
therewith.


 


Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of
this Note at the office or agency of the Issuer in The Borough of Manhattan,
The City of New York or The City of Chicago, one or more new Notes of
authorized denominations in an equal aggregate principal amount shall be issued
to the transferee in exchange therefor, subject to the limitations provided in
the Indenture, without charge, except for any tax or other governmental charge
imposed in connection therewith.


 


The Issuer, the Trustee and any authorized agent of
the Issuer or the Trustee may deem and treat the Person in whose name this Note
is registered as the absolute owner of this Note (whether or not this Note
shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing
hereon), for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the
principal and any premium hereof or hereon, and subject to the provisions on
the face hereof, interest hereon, and for all other purposes, and neither the 


 


6

















 


Issuer nor the Trustee
nor any authorized agent of the Issuer or the Trustee shall be affected by any
notice to the contrary.


 


This Note, including the validity hereof, and the
Indenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with
the laws of such state, except as may otherwise be required by mandatory
provisions of law.


 


Capitalized terms used herein which are not otherwise
defined shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Indenture
and the Twenty-Third Supplemental Indenture referred to herein.
