Ladies and Gentlemen:

CBL & Associates Limited Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), proposes to issue and sell to the several underwriters named in Schedule A hereto (collectively, the “Underwriters”, which term shall include any underwriter substituted as hereinafter provided in Section 10 hereof), acting severally and not jointly, the respective amounts set forth on such Schedule A of $450,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Operating Partnership’s 5.250% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”).

The Notes and the Limited Guarantee are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities”. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC have agreed to act as representatives of the several Underwriters (in such capacity, the “Representatives”) in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities.

The Securities will be issued pursuant to an indenture, expected to be entered into as of November 26, 2013 (the “Base Indenture”), among the Operating Partnership, the Company (as the limited guarantor) and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). Certain terms of the Securities will be established pursuant to a first supplemental indenture (the “First Supplemental Indenture”) to the Base Indenture (together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The Notes will be issued in book-entry form in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company (the “Depositary”), pursuant to a Letter of Representations, to be dated on or before the Closing Time (as defined herein), among the Operating Partnership, the Company, the Trustee and the Depositary.

The Company and the Operating Partnership have prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form S-3 (File Nos. 333-182515 and 333-182515-01), which contains a base prospectus (the “Base Prospectus”), to be used in connection with the public offering and sale of securities, including the Limited Guarantee and the Notes, and other securities of the Company and the Operating Partnership under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “1933 Act Regulations”), and the offering thereof from time to time in accordance with Rule 415 of the 1933 Act Regulations. Such registration statement, at any given time, including any amendments thereto at such time, including the financial statements, exhibits and schedules thereto, in the form in which it became effective under the 1933 Act, including any required information deemed to be a part thereof at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430B of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 430B”), is called the “Registration Statement.” Any registration statement filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations is called the “Rule 462(b) Registration Statement” and from and after the date and time of filing of the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement the term “Registration Statement” shall include the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement. The term “Prospectus” shall mean the final prospectus supplement relating to the Securities, together with the Base Prospectus, that is first filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 424(b)”) after the date and time that this Agreement is executed by the parties hereto. The term “Preliminary Prospectus” shall mean any preliminary prospectus supplement relating to the Securities, together with the Base Prospectus, that is first filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b). Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents that are or are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the 1933 Act prior to the Applicable Time (as defined herein). All references in this Agreement to the Registration Statement, the Rule 462(b) Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus, or any amendments or supplements to any of the foregoing, shall include any copy thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (“EDGAR”).

All references in this Agreement to financial statements and schedules and other information which is “contained,” “included” or “stated” (or other references of like import) in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the Preliminary Prospectus shall be deemed to mean and include all such financial statements and schedules and other information which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the Preliminary Prospectus, as the case may be, prior to the Applicable Time; and all references in this Agreement to amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or

the Preliminary Prospectus shall be deemed to include the filing of any document under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (the “1934 Act Regulations”), which is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or the Preliminary Prospectus, as the case may be, after the Applicable Time.

The term “Subsidiary” means a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity, a majority of the outstanding voting or capital stock, partnership, membership or other voting or equity interests or general partnership interests, as the case may be, of which is owned or controlled, directly or indirectly, by the Company, the Operating Partnership or one or more other Subsidiaries of the Company or the Operating Partnership.

SECTION 1Representations and Warranties.

(a) Representations and Warranties by the Company and the Operating Partnership. Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership jointly and severally represents and warrants to the Underwriters at the date hereof, the Applicable Time (as defined herein) and the Closing Time and agrees with the Underwriters, as follows:

(i) Registration Statement, Prospectus and Disclosure at Time of Sale. Each of the Operating Partnership and the Company meets the requirements for use of an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 in connection with the issuance of its securities, including the Securities: (A) at the original time of filing of the Registration Statement with respect to the Company and at the time of filing of Post-Effective Amendment No. 3 to the Registration Statement with respect to the Operating Partnership, (B) at the time of the most recent amendment to the Registration Statement for the purposes of complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act (whether such amendment was by post-effective amendment, incorporated report filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act or form of prospectus), and (C) at the date hereof, the Company was and is a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405 of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 405”), including not having been and not being an “ineligible issuer,” as defined in Rule 405, without taking account of any determination by the Commission pursuant to Rule 405 that it is not necessary that the Company be considered an ineligible issuer.

The Registration Statement became effective upon filing with the Commission under Rule 462(e) of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 462(e)”) on July 3, 2012 and any post-effective amendment thereto also became effective upon filing under Rule 462(e). No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement under the 1933 Act has been issued, no order preventing or suspending the use of the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus has been issued and no proceedings for those purposes have been instituted or are pending or, to the Operating Partnership’s or the Company’s knowledge, contemplated. Any request on the part of the Commission for additional information has been complied with.

At the respective times the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto became effective, at each deemed effective date with respect to the Underwriters and the

Securities pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 430B(f)(2)”) and at the Closing Time, the Registration Statement complied, complies and will comply in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act, the 1933 Act Regulations and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”), as applicable, and did not and will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

The Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto, if any, at the time the Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement was issued complied, and, at the Closing Time will comply, in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act, the 1933 Act Regulations and the Trust Indenture Act, as applicable; and neither the Prospectus nor any amendments or supplements thereto, at the time the Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement was issued included, or, at the Closing Time will include, an untrue statement of a material fact, or omitted or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Each Preliminary Prospectus complied when filed with the Commission in all material respects with the 1933 Act, the 1933 Act Regulations and the Trust Indenture Act, as applicable.

Each Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus delivered to the Underwriters for use in connection with the offering of the Securities was identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S‑T.

At the Applicable Time, the Preliminary Prospectus dated November 21, 2013 and any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus (as defined herein) issued at or prior to the Applicable Time (including any identified on Schedule B hereto), all considered together (collectively, the “Disclosure Package”), did not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

The representations and warranties in this subsection shall not apply to (a) that part of the Registration Statement which constitutes the Statement of Eligibility and Qualification (Form T-1) under the Trust Indenture Act, of the Trustee, or (b) statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement or any post‑effective amendment thereto, the Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto or the Disclosure Package made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to the Underwriters furnished to the Operating Partnership in writing by the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement or any post‑effective amendment thereto, the Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto or the Disclosure Package, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Representatives consists of the information described as such in Section 3(n) hereof.

As used in this subsection and elsewhere in this Agreement:

“Applicable Time” means 3:24 p.m. (New York City time) on November 21, 2013 or such other time as agreed by the Operating Partnership and the Representatives.

The foregoing sentence does not apply to statements in or omissions from any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus based upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the

Operating Partnership by the Representatives specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Representative consists of the information described as such in Section 3(n) hereof.

(xix) Absence of Defaults and Conflicts. None of the Company, the Operating Partnership or any Subsidiary is (A) in violation of its certificate of incorporation, partnership agreement, charter, by-laws, declaration of trust or other governing instrument (“Governing Instruments”) or (B) in default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any contract, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan or credit agreement, note, lease or other agreement or instrument to which the Company, the Operating Partnership or any Subsidiary is a party or by which any of them may be bound, or to which any of the property or assets of the Company, the Operating Partnership or any Subsidiary is subject (collectively, “Agreements and Instruments”) or (C) in violation of any applicable law, statute, rule, regulation, judgment, order, writ or decree of any government, government instrumentality or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company, the Operating Partnership or any Subsidiary or any of their assets, properties or operations (“Laws”), except for such defaults or violations of Agreements and Instruments or Laws that would not result in a Material Adverse Effect. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (including the issuance and sale of the Securities and the use of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities as described in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus under the caption “Use of Proceeds”) and compliance by the Company and the Operating Partnership with their respective obligations hereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or limited partnership action and do not and will not, whether with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both, conflict with or constitute a breach of, or default or Repayment Event (as defined herein) under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company, the Operating Partnership, any Subsidiary, or any Property Partnership pursuant to, the Agreements and Instruments or Laws (except for such conflicts, breaches, defaults or Repayment Events or liens, charges or encumbrances that would not result in a Material Adverse Effect), nor will

such action result in any violation of the provisions of the Governing Instruments of the Company, the Operating Partnership, any Subsidiary, or any Property Partnership or of any Laws, except for such violations that would not have a Material Adverse Effect. As used herein, a “Repayment Event” means any event or condition which gives the holder of any mortgage, note, debenture or other evidence of indebtedness (or any person acting on such holder’s behalf) the right to require the repurchase, redemption or repayment of all or a material portion of such indebtedness by the Company, the Operating Partnership, any Subsidiary, or any Property Partnership.

(xx) Absence of Labor Dispute. No labor dispute with the employees of the Company, the Operating Partnership or any Subsidiary exists or, to the knowledge of the Company or the Operating Partnership, is imminent, and the Company and the Operating Partnership are not aware of any existing or imminent labor disturbance by the employees of any of their or any Subsidiary’s principal suppliers, manufacturers, customers or contractors, which, in either case, may reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(xxi) Absence of Proceedings. There is no action, arbitration, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or brought by any court, arbitrator or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, now pending, or, to the knowledge of the Company or the Operating Partnership, threatened, against or affecting the Company, the Operating Partnership or any Subsidiary, which is required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus (other than as disclosed therein), or which might reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect or which might materially and adversely affect the consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement or the performance by the Company or the Operating Partnership of their respective obligations hereunder. The aggregate of all pending legal or governmental proceedings to which the Company, the Operating Partnership or any Subsidiary is a party, or to which any of their respective properties or assets is subject, which are not described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, including ordinary routine litigation, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

(xxii) Accuracy of Exhibits. There are no contracts or documents which are required to be described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package, the Prospectus or the documents incorporated by reference therein, or to be filed as exhibits thereto, which have not been so described or filed as required.

(xxiii) REIT Qualification. Commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1993, the Company has been, and upon the sale of the Securities, the Company will continue to be, organized and operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a real estate investment trust (a “REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the Company’s present and proposed method of operation as described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus will enable it to continue to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Code. Commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1993, the Operating Partnership has been, and upon the sale of

the Securities, the Operating Partnership will continue to be taxed as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, and its present and proposed method of operation as described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus will enable it to continue to be taxed as a partnership for federal income tax purposes.

(xxiv) Investment Company Act.

The Operating Partnership and the Company will make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any stop, prevention or suspension order and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible moment. The Operating Partnership shall pay the required Commission filing fees relating to the Securities within the time required by Rule 456(b)(1)(i) of the 1933 Act Regulations without regard to the proviso therein and otherwise in accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r) of the 1933 Act Regulations (including, if applicable, by updating the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in accordance with Rule 456(b)(1)(ii) of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 456(b)(1)(ii)”) either in a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or on the cover page of a prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)).

(b) Filing of Amendments and Exchange Act Documents. Until the distribution of the Securities by the Underwriters is complete, the Operating Partnership and the Company will give the Representatives notice of their intention to file or prepare any amendment to the Registration Statement or new registration statement relating to the Securities or any amendment or supplement to any Preliminary Prospectus or to the Prospectus, whether pursuant to the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, and the Operating Partnership and the Company will furnish the Representatives with copies of any such documents a reasonable amount of time prior to such proposed filing or use, as the case may be, and will not file or use any such document to which the Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters shall reasonably object. The Operating Partnership and the Company agree, during the period when a prospectus is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act (or but for the exception afforded by Rule 172 of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 172”) would be required to be delivered), to file all documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to the 1934 Act within the time periods required by the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations.

experts, and will also on request deliver to the Representatives, without charge, a conformed copy of the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto (without exhibits) for each of the Underwriters. The copies of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereto furnished to the Underwriters will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.

(d) Delivery of Prospectuses. The Operating Partnership and the Company have delivered to the Underwriters, without charge, as many copies of each Preliminary Prospectus as the Underwriters reasonably requested, and the Operating Partnership and the Company hereby consent to the use of such copies for purposes permitted by the 1933 Act. The Operating Partnership and the Company will furnish to the Underwriters, without charge, during the period when a prospectus is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act (or but for the exception afforded by Rule 172 would be required to be delivered), such number of copies of the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) as the Underwriters may reasonably request. The Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto furnished to the Underwriters will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S‑T.

(e) Continued Compliance with Securities Laws. The Operating Partnership and the Company will comply with the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations and the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations so as to permit the completion of the distribution of the Securities as contemplated in this Agreement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. If at any time when a prospectus is required by the 1933 Act to be delivered (or but for the exception afforded by Rule 172 would be required to be delivered) in connection with sales of the Securities by the Underwriters or a dealer, any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which it is necessary, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters or for the Operating Partnership and the Company, to amend the Registration Statement or amend or supplement the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus in order that the same will not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it is delivered to a purchaser), or if it shall be necessary, in the opinion of such counsel, at any such time to amend the Registration Statement or to file a new registration statement or amend or supplement the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus in order to comply with the requirements of the 1933 Act or the 1933 Act Regulations, the Operating Partnership and the Company will promptly prepare and file with the Commission, subject to Section 3(b), such amendment, supplement or new registration statement as may be necessary to correct such statement or omission or to comply with such requirements, the Operating Partnership and the Company will use their best efforts to have such amendment or new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable (if it is not an automatic shelf registration statement with respect to the Securities) and the Operating Partnership and the Company will furnish to the Representatives such number of copies of such amendment, supplement or new registration statement as the Representatives may reasonably request. If, prior to the completion of the public offer and sale of the Securities, at any time following the issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement (or any other registration statement relating to the Securities) or if any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to

state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at that subsequent time, not misleading, the Operating Partnership and the Company will promptly notify the Representatives and will promptly amend or supplement, at its own expense, such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict, untrue statement or omission.

(f) Permitted Free Writing Prospectuses. Each of the Operating Partnership and the Company agrees that, unless it obtains the prior written consent of the Representatives, and each Underwriter agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Operating Partnership and the Representatives, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405). Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Operating Partnership and the Representatives, which includes each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus listed on Schedule B hereto, is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus”. Each of the Operating Partnership and the Company agrees that (i) it has treated and will treat, as the case may be, each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and (ii) it has complied and will comply, as the case may be, with the requirements of Rules 164 and 433 of the 1933 Act Regulations applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including in respect of timely filing with the Commission, legending and record keeping. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Operating Partnership and the Company consent to the use by any Underwriter of a free writing prospectus that contains only (a)(i) information describing the preliminary terms of the Securities or their offering, (ii) information meeting the requirements of Rule 134 of the 1933 Act Regulations or (iii) information that describes the final terms of the Securities or their offering or (b) other customary information that is neither “issuer information,” as defined in Rule 433, nor otherwise an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

(g) Blue Sky Qualifications. The Operating Partnership and the Company will use their best efforts, in cooperation with the Representatives, to qualify the Securities for offering and sale under the applicable securities laws of such states and other jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate and to maintain such qualifications in effect for a period of not less than one year from the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject. In each jurisdiction in which the Securities have been so qualified, the Company will file such statements and reports as may be required by the laws of such jurisdiction to continue such qualification in effect for a period of not less than one year from the date of this Agreement.

(j) Depositary. The Operating Partnership will cooperate with the Underwriters and use its best efforts to permit the Notes to be eligible for clearance and settlement through the facilities of the Depositary.

(k) REIT Qualification. The Company will use its best efforts to continue to meet the requirements for qualification as a REIT under the Code for each of its taxable years for so long as the Board of Directors of the Company deems it in the best interests of the Company to remain so qualified.

(l) No Manipulation of Market for Securities. Except for the authorization of actions permitted to be taken by the Underwriters as contemplated herein or in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, neither the Company nor the Operating Partnership has or will take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result in, or that might reasonably be expected to constitute, the stabilization or manipulation of the price of the Notes.

(m) Lock-Up Agreement.

forth in this Agreement, (iv) the Underwriters and their affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and the Operating Partnership, and (v) the Underwriters have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated by this Agreement and the Company and the Operating Partnership have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate. Any review of the Company, the Operating Partnership, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions performed by the Representatives or any Underwriter will be performed solely for the benefit of the Representatives or such Underwriter and shall not be on behalf of the Company or the Operating Partnership or any other person.

(p) Renewal of Registration Statement. The date of this Agreement is not more than three years subsequent to the initial effective date of the Registration Statement (the “Renewal Date”). If, immediately prior to the third anniversary of the Renewal Date, any Securities remain unsold by the applicable Underwriter(s) and a prospectus is required to be delivered or made available by such Underwriter(s) under the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act in connection with the sale of such Securities, the Operating Partnership and the Company will, prior to the Renewal Date and subject to Section 3(b), jointly file, if they have not already done so, a new shelf registration statement or, if applicable, an automatic shelf registration statement relating to such Securities, and, if such registration statement is not an automatic shelf registration statement, will use their best efforts to cause such registration statement to be declared effective within 180 days after the Renewal Date, and will take all other reasonable actions necessary or appropriate to permit the public offer and sale of such Securities to continue as contemplated in the expired registration statement relating to such Securities. References herein to the “Registration Statement” shall include such new shelf registration statement or automatic shelf registration statement, as the case may be.

(q) Final Term Sheet. The Operating Partnership and the Company will prepare the Final Term Sheet, in a form approved by the Representatives and substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit I to Schedule B hereto, and will file such term sheet pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the 1933 Act Regulations within the time required by such rule. The Operating Partnership acknowledges that the Final Term Sheet is an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus for purposes of this Agreement.

SECTION 5 Conditions of the Underwriters’ Obligations. The obligations of the several Underwriters hereunder are subject to the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company and the Operating Partnership contained in Section 1 hereof and the accuracy of the statements made in certificates of any officer or authorized representative of the Company or the Operating Partnership delivered pursuant to the provisions hereof, to the performance by each of the Company and the Operating Partnership of its covenants and other obligations hereunder, and to the following further conditions:

SECTION 6 Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification of the Underwriters. Each of the Company and the Operating Partnership agrees, jointly and severally, to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, and any director, officer, employee or affiliate thereof as follows:

(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred by any Underwriter or any such person, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including information deemed part of and included in the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430B of the 1933 Act Regulations (the “Rule 430B Information”), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in the roadshow materials relating to the offer of the

Securities, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Disclosure Package, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, by any Underwriter or any such person, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; and

(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred by any Underwriter or any such person (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Representatives), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above;

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including the Rule 430B Information, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Disclosure Package, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto). The Company and the Operating Partnership acknowledge that such information consists only of the information described in Section 3(n) hereof.

(b) Indemnification of the Company, the Operating Partnership and Officers. Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the Operating Partnership, each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Operating Partnership within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, and any officer, director or employee thereof, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity described in subsection (a) of this Section, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including the Rule 430B Information, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the Disclosure Package, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use therein. The Company and the Operating Partnership acknowledge that such information consists only of the information described in Section 3(n) hereof.

Actions against Parties; Notification. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(a) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Representatives, and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(b) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Company. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action; provided, however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 6 or Section 7 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

SECTION 7 Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 6 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and of the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

The relative benefits received by the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, in connection with the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and the total underwriting discount received by the Underwriters, on the other hand, in each case as set forth on the cover of

the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate initial public offering price of the Securities as set forth on such cover.

The relative fault of the Company and the Operating Partnership, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Operating Partnership or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company, the Operating Partnership and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 7. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 7 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, no Underwriter shall be required under this Agreement to contribute any amount in excess of the amount of the underwriting discount applicable to the Securities purchased by it hereunder.

No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

For purposes of this Section 7, each director, officer, employee or affiliate of an Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the preceding two paragraphs.

For purposes of this Section 7, the Company and the Operating Partnership shall be deemed one party, jointly and severally liable for any obligations hereunder. The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several, and not joint, in proportion to their respective underwriting commitments set forth opposite their names in Schedule A hereto plus any additional underwriting commitments of such Underwriters pursuant to Section 10.

SECTION 8 Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in certificates submitted pursuant hereto shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any

investigation made by or on behalf of any party, and shall survive delivery of the Securities to the Underwriters and shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 9 Termination of Agreement.

(a) Termination; General. The Representatives may, without liability, terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company, at any time at or prior to the Closing Time (i) if there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the properties, earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States, any outbreak of new hostilities or escalation of existing hostilities, any acts of terrorism involving the United States or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to offer, sell or deliver the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, or (iii) if trading in any securities of the Operating Partnership or the Company has been suspended or materially limited by the Commission or the NYSE, or if trading generally on the NYSE or in the Nasdaq Global Market has been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States, or (iv) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either Federal or New York authorities.

(b) Liabilities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section, such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 4 hereof, and provided further that Sections 1, 6, 7, 8 and 14 shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 10 Default by One or More of the Underwriters. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail at the Closing Time to purchase the Securities which it or they are obligated to purchase under this Agreement (the “Defaulted Securities”), the Representatives shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Representatives shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24-hour period, then:

(i) if the number of Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all non-defaulting Underwriters, or

(ii) if the number of Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter and the Operating Partnership.

No action taken pursuant to this Section 10 shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default.

In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement, either the Representatives or the Operating Partnership shall have the right to postpone the Closing Time for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package or the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements.

As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” shall be deemed to include any person substituted for a defaulting Underwriter under this Section 10. Any action taken under this Section 10 shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

SECTION 11 Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication and confirmed to the receiving party. Notices to the Underwriters shall be directed to the Representatives at J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, 383 Madison Avenue, 3^rd Floor, New York, New York 10179, attention of High Grade Syndicate Desk, U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc., 214 North Tryon Street, Charlotte, NC 28202, attention of High Grade Syndicate, and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, 550 South Tryon Street, 5^th Floor, Charlotte, NC 28202, attention of Transaction Management Department, and notices to the Company and the Operating Partnership shall be directed to them at 2030 Hamilton Place Blvd., Suite 500, Chattanooga, Tennessee 37421-6000, attention of Chief Legal Officer.

SECTION 12 Parties. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Underwriters, the Company and the Operating Partnership and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the Underwriters, the Company and the Operating Partnership and their respective successors and the controlling persons and officers, trustees and directors referred to in Sections 6 and 7 and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. This Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Underwriters, the Company and the Operating Partnership and their respective successors, and said controlling persons and officers and directors and their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Securities from the Underwriters shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

SECTION 13 Integration. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) among the Company, the Operating Partnership and the Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

SECTION 14 GOVERNING LAW AND TIME. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN SAID STATE (WITHOUT REGARD TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES). UNLESS OTHERWISE EXPLICITLY PROVIDED, SPECIFIED TIMES OF DAY REFER TO NEW YORK CITY TIME.

SECTION 15 Effect of Headings. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

FORM OF OPINION OF COMPANY’S AND OPERATING PARTNERSHIP’S COUNSEL TO BE DELIVERED PURSUANT TO SECTION 5(b)(ii)

Based solely on such counsel’s review of the Public Documents (as defined in such opinion) and to the extent applicable, the Officer’s Certificate (as defined in such opinion) and without independent investigation of any nature, (i) each of the Company’s subsidiaries identified on Attachment A to such opinion (the “Subsidiaries”) is existing as a limited partnership, limited liability company or corporation, as applicable, and (ii) each of the subsidiaries is in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of formation, organization or incorporation.

Based solely on such counsel’s review of the Public Documents, each of CBL Holdings I and the Management Company (as defined in such opinion) has been qualified as a foreign corporation, and the Operating Partnership has been qualified as a foreign limited partnership for the transaction of business, in each of the jurisdictions set forth on Attachment C to such opinion, subject in each case to the further exceptions or qualifications noted on such Attachment C. Based solely on our review of the Officer’s Certificate (as defined in such opinion), the jurisdictions listed on Attachment C to such opinion represent each jurisdiction (other than Delaware) in which the Company, the Management Company and/or the Operating Partnership owns or leases properties or conducts business.

The issue and sale of the Securities by the Company and the Operating Partnership and the compliance by the Company and the Operating Partnership with all of the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and, as applicable, the Notes and the Limited Guarantee will not result in any violation of any statute or any order, rule or regulation known to such counsel to apply to transactions similar to the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture, the Notes and the Limited Guarantee, of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective properties, provided that, with respect to the matters set forth in this opinion 3, such counsel need express no opinion with respect to the 1933 Act or to any state or foreign securities or Blue Sky laws (as defined therein).

The Company has been organized and has operated in conformity with the requirements for qualification as a REIT under the Code for the taxable year ended December 31, 2005, the taxable year ended December 31, 2006, the taxable year ended December 31, 2007, the taxable year ended December 31, 2008, the taxable year ended December 31, 2009, the taxable year ended December 31, 2010, the taxable year ended December 31, 2011 and the taxable year ended December 31, 2012 and the present and proposed method of operation of the Company and the Operating Partnership, as described in the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus, and as represented by the Company and the Operating Partnership in the Company Certificate (as defined in

Exh. B-1

such opinion) and as represented in the General Counsel Letter (as defined in such opinion), will permit the Company to continue to so qualify.

The statements made in the Registration Statement under the caption “Material U.S. U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations”, and the statements made in the Disclosure Package and the Prospectus as amended or supplemented under the caption “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,” to the extent made, insofar as such statements constitute a summary of documents referred to therein, are accurate summaries in all material respects, and insofar as such statements constitute a summary of matters of law, summaries of legal matters, legal proceedings or legal conclusions, are accurate summaries in all material respects.


6.	The Operating Partnership (a) is properly treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes and (b) is not a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704(b) of the Code.


7.	All of the issued shares of capital stock of the Company have been duly authorized and validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable; none of the issued shares of capital stock of the Company was issued in violation of preemptive rights.

Based solely on our review of the documents listed on Attachment B to such opinion with respect to the Operating Partnership, no partnership interests of the Operating Partnership are reserved for issuance for any purpose, and there are no outstanding securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for any partnership interests of the Operating Partnership, except as set forth in the Operating Partnership Agreement concerning (a) the rights of holders of outstanding special common units to exchange such securities for regular common units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership, and (b) the rights of holders of outstanding 6.625% Series E Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Units to exchange such securities for regular Common Units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership under the circumstances set forth in the Operating Partnership Agreement.

No fact has come to such counsel’s attention that has caused it to believe that (i) the Registration Statement, including the Rule 430B Information (except for financial statements (including notes) and supporting schedules and other financial information included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom and for statistical information derived from such financial statements (including notes), supporting schedules and other financial information, as to which such counsel need make no statement), at the time such Registration Statement became effective or at 3:24 P.M. on November 21, 2013, and at the “new effective date” with respect to the Underwriters and the Securities pursuant to, and within the meaning of, Commission Rule 430B(f)(2) under the Securities Act, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, (ii) the Prospectus (except for financial statements (including notes) and supporting schedules and other financial information included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom and for statistical information derived from such financial statements (including notes), supporting schedules and other financial

Exh. B-2

information, and the Trustee’s Statement of Eligibility on form T-1, as to which such counsel need make no statement), at the time the Prospectus was issued or at the Closing Time, included or includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, or (iii) the Disclosure Package (except for financial statements (including notes) and supporting schedules and other financial information included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom and for statistical information derived from such financial statements (including notes), supporting schedules and other financial information, as to which such counsel need make no statement), as of the Applicable Time, included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
