On March 1, 2013, CBL & Associates Properties, Inc. (the "Company") entered into separate Controlled Equity OfferingSM Sales Agreements (each, a "Sales Agreement", and collectively, the "Sales Agreements") with each of Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., RBC Capital Markets, LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (each, a "Sales Agent", and collectively, the "Sales Agents") under which the Company may issue and sell shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $300 million (the "Shares") from time to time through the Sales Agents. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, if any, for general business purposes, which may include debt reduction.

Each Sales Agent has agreed to use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell on the Company's behalf all of the Shares requested to be sold by the Company, consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, on mutually agreed terms between such Sales Agents and the Company. The Company may instruct the Sales Agents not to sell the Shares if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by the Company from time to time. The Company or any Sales Agent may suspend the offering of the Shares upon notice and subject to other conditions.

Upon delivery of a placement notice and subject to the terms and conditions of the respective Sales Agreement, each Sales Agent may sell the Shares by any method permitted by law deemed to be an "at-the-market" offering as defined in Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), including without limitation sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange, on any other existing trading market for the Company's common stock or to or through a market maker. The Sales Agents may also sell the Shares in privately negotiated transactions.

The offering of the Shares pursuant to any Sales Agreement will terminate upon the earlier of (i) the sale of the maximum aggregate amount of the Shares subject to the Sales Agreements, or (ii) termination of such Sales Agreement as permitted therein. The Company or any Sales Agent may terminate the respective Sales Agreement at any time upon ten days prior notice.

The Company will pay each Sales Agent commissions, in cash, for its services in acting as agent in the sale of the Shares. Each Sales Agent will be entitled to compensation at a mutually agreed commission rate not to exceed 2% of the gross sales price per Share sold.

The foregoing summary of the Sales Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Sales Agreements, copies of which are attached as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

The opinions of the Company's counsel regarding the validity of the Shares that will be issued pursuant to the Sales Agreements and material federal tax matters also are filed herewith as Exhibit 5.6 and Exhibit 8.3, respectively.

The Shares will be issued pursuant to the Company's previously filed and effective Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-182515), as amended, the base prospectus dated March 1, 2013, filed as part of such Registration Statement, and the prospectus supplement dated March 1, 2013, filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy Shares, nor shall there by any sale of the Shares in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.
