FMP’s board of directors elected Wendy Luscombe to serve as a director of the Company effective May 12, 2008. Ms. Luscombe fills the vacancy created by James C. Bourg, who did not stand for re-election as a director at the Company’s 2007 annual meeting of stockholders.

Ms. Luscombe will be standing for election as a director of the Company at its 2008 annual meeting of stockholders.

In addition, the Company nominated Jim Sight as an additional board member. Jim currently serves as a director of LSB Industries, a company listed on the American Stock Exchange.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Feldman Mall Properties, Inc., consistent with real estate industry and investment community preferences, uses FFO as a supplemental measure of operating performance. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT) defines FFO as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting

MORE

Feldman Mall Properties, Inc.
Page 4

Principles (GAAP)), excluding gains (or losses) from cumulative effects of accounting changes, extraordinary items and sales of depreciable properties, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.

The Company considers FFO a supplemental measure for equity REITs and a complement to GAAP measures because it facilitates an understanding of the operating performance of the Company’s properties. FFO does not give effect to real estate depreciation and amortization since these amounts are computed to allocate the cost of a property over its useful life. Since values for well-maintained real estate assets have historically increased or decreased based upon prevailing market conditions, the Company believes that FFO provides investors with a clearer view of the Company’s operating performance.

In order to provide a better understanding of the relationship with FFO and GAAP net income, a reconciliation of FFO to GAAP net income has been provided on page 10 of this release. FFO does not represent cash flow from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, should not be considered as an alternative to GAAP net income and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.

During the May 22, 2008 conference call, the Company may discuss non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC Regulation G. In addition, the Company has used a non-GAAP financial measure and the comparable GAAP financial measure (net income/loss) can be found on pages 8 and 10 of this release.

Stages of Project Redevelopment

We believe that a typical mall redevelopment project cycles through a five stage process. Stage one involves acquisition and planning. In this stage, if a mall is underperforming, we would expect its net operating income generally to be declining as new leasing and development opportunities are identified. Stage two involves preliminary redevelopment, which encompasses final financial analysis, architectural and engineering input, and the estimate of project and capital needs. During this stage, we expect further declines in net operating income as some existing tenants are relocated/terminated or converted to percentage rent leases. Stage three is the commencement of construction activity, primary leasing activity, which may include junior anchors and national tenants, and the completion of required financing. During this stage, we anticipate that net operating income will usually begin to stabilize. Stage four is the completion of development and delivery of space to junior and national tenants and the commencement of the leasing of the remainder of shop tenant space. During this stage, we anticipate net operating income will begin to increase. In the final stage, the renovation is completed and the project reaches the objective of 92% overall occupancy.

Our properties are in various stages of the redevelopment process. There has been no change since our last press release and those stages are as follow:

Stages of Development

1		Tallahassee Mall and Golden Triangle Mall
2		Northgate Mall
3		Stratford Square Mall
