Feb. 16 (Bloomberg) -- Alexander Goldfarb, an analyst with Sandler O'Neill & Partners, talks with Bloomberg's Carol Massar about Simon Property Group Inc.'s offer to buy General Growth Properties Inc. out of bankruptcy for more than $10 billion and combine the biggest U.S. mall owners.   
     About $9 billion of the bid is in cash, Indianapolis-based Simon said in a statement today. General Growth shareholders would get about $9 a share, including $6 in cash, the statement said. Unsecured creditors would be repaid in full for about $7 billion, according to Simon, which said it made its offer public after receiving "no substantive" response from General Growth.
