DEVELOPERS DIVERSIFIED REALTY REPORTS AN INCREASE OF 12.2%
IN DILUTED FFO PER SHARE FOR THE QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2006

     CLEVELAND, OHIO, October 26, 2006 - Developers Diversified Realty Corporation (NYSE: DDR), the nation’s leading owner, manager and developer of market-dominant community centers, today reported operating results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2006.

• Funds From Operations (“FFO”) per diluted share increased 12.2% to $0.83 and net income per diluted share increased 4.7% to $0.45 for the three months ended September 30, 2006 as compared to the prior year

• Core portfolio leased percentage increased 30 basis points over the prior year to 96.1%

• Executed leases during the third quarter totaled approximately 1.6 million square feet, including 132 new leases and 214 renewals

• Base rents increased 29.5% on new leases, 11.7% on renewals and 15.5% on a blended basis

• Same store net operating income (“NOI”) for the quarter increased 3.2% over the prior year quarter

     Scott Wolstein, Developers Diversified’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer stated, “We’re pleased to announce this quarter’s strong FFO per share growth of over 12%. We continue to see outstanding leasing activity in our operating and development portfolio. This demand for space reflects the underlying health of the retail industry and the success of our core tenants. Our recent announcements regarding our merger agreement with Inland Retail Real Estate Trust, Inc. and our joint venture investment in Sonae Sierra Brazil reflect acquisitions that provide long-term strategic benefits for the Company and represent significant opportunities to grow shareholder value.”

Financial Results:

     FFO, a widely accepted measure of a Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”) performance, on a diluted and basic per share basis was $0.83 for the three months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to $0.74 for the same period in the previous year, an increase of 12.2%. FFO available to common shareholders was $91.7 million, as compared to $81.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, an increase of 12.1%. Net income available to common shareholders was $49.0 million or $0.45 per share (diluted and basic) for the three months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to $46.5 million, or $0.43 per share (diluted and basic) for the prior comparable period. The increase in net income and FFO for the three months ended September 30, 2006, is primarily related to an increase in gain on sale of real estate assets comprised of land sales and sales through the Company’s merchant building program as compared to 2005.

     FFO was $2.59 (diluted) and $2.61 (basic) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to $2.47 (diluted) and $2.49 (basic) for the same period in the previous year, an increase of 4.9% (diluted) and 4.8% (basic) basis. FFO available to common shareholders was $287.7 million, as compared to $273.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005, respectively, an increase of 5.2%. Net income available to common shareholders was $149.9 million or $1.37 per share (diluted and basic) for the nine months ended September 30, 2006, as compared to $192.4 million, or $1.76 per share (diluted) and $1.78 per share (basic) for the prior comparable period. The decrease in net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 is primarily related to a decrease in gain on sale of real estate assets as compared to 2005.

     FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measurement used as a standard in the real estate industry. Management believes that FFO provides an additional indicator of the financial performance of a REIT. The Company also believes that FFO more appropriately measures the core operations of the Company and provides a benchmark to its peer group. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income computed in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity. FFO is defined and calculated by the Company as net income, adjusted to exclude: (i) preferred dividends, (ii) gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable real estate property, except for those sold through the Company’s merchant building program, (iii) sales of securities, (iv) extraordinary items, (v) cumulative effect of changes in accounting standards and (vi) certain non-cash items. These non-cash items principally include real property depreciation and amortization of intangibles, equity income from joint ventures and equity income from minority equity investments and adding the Company’s proportionate share of FFO from its unconsolidated joint ventures and minority equity investments, determined on a consistent basis. Other real estate companies may calculate FFO in a different manner. A reconciliation of net income to FFO is presented in the financial highlights section.

Leasing:

     Leasing activity continues to be strong throughout the portfolio. During the third quarter of 2006, the Company executed 132 new leases aggregating 784,332 square feet and 214 renewals aggregating 833,721 square feet. Rental rates on new leases increased by 29.5% and rental rates on renewals increased by 11.7%. On a blended basis, rental rates for new leases and renewals increased by 15.5%. At September 30, 2006, the average annualized base rent per occupied square foot, including those properties owned through joint ventures and excluding the impact of the properties acquired from Mervyns, was $11.68, as compared to $11.23 at September 30, 2005.

     At September 30, 2006, the portfolio, including those properties owned through joint ventures, was 96.2% leased. Excluding the impact of the properties acquired from Mervyns, the core portfolio was 96.1% leased, as compared to 95.8% at September 30, 2005. These percentages include tenants for which signed leases have been executed and occupancy has not occurred. Based on tenants in place and responsible for paying rent as of September 30, 2006, the portfolio was 95.3% occupied. Excluding the impact of the properties acquired from Mervyns, the core portfolio was 95.1% occupied, as compared to 94.8% at September 30, 2005.

Strategic Real Estate Transactions:

Inland:

     In October, 2006, the Company (“DDR”) and Inland Retail Real Estate Trust, Inc. (“IRRETI”) announced that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, DDR will acquire all of the outstanding shares of IRRETI for a total merger consideration of $14.00 per share in

cash. DDR may elect to issue up to $4.00 per share of the total merger consideration in the form of DDR common stock to be based upon the ten day average closing price of DDR’s shares two trading days prior to the IRRETI stockholders’ meeting to approve the transaction. The election to issue DDR common stock may be made up to 15 calendar days prior to the IRRETI stockholders’ meeting and may be revoked by DDR at any time if the revocation would not delay the stockholders’ meeting for more than ten business days.

     The transaction has a total enterprise value of approximately $6.2 billion. This amount includes approximately $2.3 billion of existing debt, a significant portion of which is expected to be prepaid at closing. IRRETI’s real estate portfolio aggregates 307 community shopping centers, neighborhood shopping centers and single tenant/net leased retail properties, comprising approximately 43.6 million square feet of total GLA.

     DDR has reached agreement with a major U.S. institutional investor on a joint venture which will acquire 67 of IRRETI’s community center assets for approximately $3.0 billion of total asset value. The joint venture is anticipated to have a 60% loan to value ratio and DDR will contribute 15% of the equity. In addition to its earnings from the joint venture, DDR will be entitled to certain fees for asset management, leasing, property management, development/tenant coordination and acquisitions. DDR will also earn a promoted interest equal to 20% of the cash flow of the joint venture after the partners have received an internal rate of return equal to 10% on their equity investment. Additionally, DDR has received financing commitments totaling in excess of $3.0 billion, which it may use to fund all or a portion of the total merger consideration.

     In addition to the portfolio of operating properties, DDR will acquire a development pipeline of five projects and numerous potential expansion and redevelopment projects. DDR plans to generate additional value by implementing its proactive leasing, development, redevelopment and property management systems. In addition, DDR intends, immediately upon closing, to incorporate the IRRETI assets in its highly successful ancillary income program, which we anticipate will result in additional value creation.

     Completion of the transaction, which is expected to occur in the first quarter of 2007, is subject to approval of the merger agreement by IRRETI shareholders and other customary closing conditions described in the merger agreement. The merger was unanimously approved by DDR’s Board of Directors. The merger was unanimously approved by IRRETI’s Board of Directors, with two related party directors recusing themselves.

Sonae Sierra Brazil:

     In October 2006, the Company announced the acquisition of a 50% joint venture interest in Sonae Sierra Brazil, a fully integrated retail real estate company based in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Sonae Sierra Brazil is a subsidiary of Sonae Sierra, an international owner, developer and manager of shopping centers based in Portugal. Sonae Sierra Brazil is the managing partner of a partnership that owns direct and indirect interests in nine retail assets aggregating 3.4 million square feet and a property management company in Sao Paulo, Brazil that oversees the leasing and management operations of the portfolio. Sonae Sierra Brazil owns approximately 93% of the partnership and Enplanta Engenharia (“Enplanta”) owns approximately 7%. The aggregate market value of Sonae Sierra Brazil is approximately $300 million (U.S.). Developers Diversified’s aggregate proportionate share investment is approximately $150 million (U.S.).

     In September 2006, one of the Company’s RVIP joint ventures, in which the Company has an effective 25.5% ownership interest, sold a 41,000 square foot shopping center in Everett, Washington for approximately $8.1 million. The joint venture recorded an aggregate gain of $3.7 million of which approximately $1.2 million represents the Company’s share of the gain.

     In August 2006, the joint venture shopping center in Kildeer, Illinois, of which the Company owned a 10% interest, was sold for approximately $47.3 million.

Development (Wholly-Owned and Consolidated Joint Ventures):

     As of September 30, 2006, the Company has substantially completed the construction of the Freehold, New Jersey and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania shopping centers, at an aggregate gross cost of $85.2 million.

     The Company currently has eight shopping center projects under construction. These projects are located in Miami, Florida; Nampa, Idaho; McHenry, Illinois; Seabrook, New Hampshire; Horseheads, New York; two projects in Apex, North Carolina (Beaver Creek Crossings — Phases I and II), and San Antonio, Texas, (which is being developed through a joint venture with David Berndt Interests).

     The Company anticipates commencing construction in 2006 on two additional shopping centers located in Ukiah, California and Homestead, Florida. These projects have an estimated aggregate gross cost of $186.1 million and will create an additional 1.1 million square feet of gross leasable retail space.

     At September 30, 2006, approximately $340.4 million of costs were incurred in relation to the above projects under construction and projects that will be commencing construction.

Development (Joint Ventures):

     In addition to the Bloomfield Hills, Michigan project previously disclosed, three of the Company’s joint ventures currently have shopping center projects under construction. These projects are located in Merriam, Kansas; Allen, Texas and San Antonio, Texas. These three projects are being developed through the Coventry II program. A significant portion of the project located in San Antonio, Texas was substantially completed during 2005. The remaining two projects are scheduled for completion during 2007 and 2008. These projects have an aggregate gross projected cost of approximately $496.5 million. At September 30, 2006, approximately $130.4 million of costs were incurred in relation to these development projects.

Financing:

     In August 2006, the Company issued $250 million, 3.50% convertible senior unsecured notes due 2011. The notes have an initial conversion rate of approximately 15.3589 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of the notes, represent a conversion price of approximately $65.11 per common share and a conversion premium of approximately 22.5% based on the last reported sale price of $53.15 per common share on August 22, 2006. The initial conversion rate is subject to adjustment under certain circumstances. Upon closing of the sale of the notes, the Company repurchased $48.3 million of its common shares.

     In connection with the offering, the Company entered into an option arrangement, that is settled in shares of our common stock, with an investment bank that had the economic impact of effectively increasing the conversion price of the notes to $74.41 per common share, which represents a 40.0% premium based on the August 22, 2006 closing price of $53.15 per common share. The cost of this arrangement was approximately $10.3 million and has been recorded as an equity transaction in our consolidated balance sheet.

     In addition, in late September and early October the Company entered into an aggregate $300 million of interest rate swaps which converted floating rate debt to a weighted average fixed Libor rate of approximately 4.94%. As a result, the effective floating rate debt, as a percentage of total debt, was 6.6% at September 30, 2006.
