EASTGROUP PROPERTIES INC

The Company is not presently involved in any litigation nor, to its knowledge, is any litigation threatened against the Company or its properties, other than routine litigation arising in the ordinary course of business and other actions not deemed to be material. Management believes that any such matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations, individually or in the aggregate. Substantially all of these matters are anticipated to be covered by the Company’s liability insurance. However, the Company cannot predict the outcome of any litigation with certainty, and some lawsuits, claims or proceedings may be disposed of unfavorably to the Company, which could materially affect its financial condition or results of operations.
