Risk Factors Related to Operating Retail-Based Shopping Centers
Economic and market conditions may adversely affect the retail industry and consequently reduce our revenues and cash flow and increase our operating expenses.

Many of our costs and expenses associated with operating our properties may remain constant or increase, even if our lease income decreases.
