On December 27, 2002, SPG Inc. and the Purchaser filed an amended complaint (the "Amended Complaint") in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan against the Company, the Company Board and certain members of the Taubman family which added a claim that the amendment to the Company's By-Laws adopted by the Company Board on December 20, 2002 (the "By-Law Amendment"), purporting to eliminate the right of the holders of 25% of the outstanding voting shares of the Company to call a special meeting and set the date thereof, is null, void and of no further force and effect.
