PENNSYLVANIA REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2012

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Nature of Operations

Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust (“PREIT” or the “Company”) prepared the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, although we believe that the included disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Our unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes thereto included in PREIT’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2011. In our opinion, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position and the consolidated results of our operations and our cash flows are included. The results of operations for the interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year.

PREIT, a Pennsylvania business trust founded in 1960 and one of the first equity real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) in the United States, has a primary investment focus on retail shopping malls located in the eastern half of the United States, primarily in the Mid-Atlantic region. As of June 30, 2012, our portfolio consisted of a total of 49 properties in 13 states, including 38 shopping malls, eight strip and power centers and three development properties, with two of the development properties classified as “mixed use” (a combination of retail and other uses) and one of the development properties classified as “other.”

We hold our interest in our portfolio of properties through our operating partnership, PREIT Associates, L.P. (“PREIT Associates” or the “Operating Partnership”). We are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and, as of June 30, 2012, we held a 96.0% interest in the Class A and Class B limited partnership units of the Operating Partnership, and consolidated it for reporting purposes. The presentation of consolidated financial statements does not itself imply that the assets of any consolidated entity (including any special-purpose entity formed for a particular project) are available to pay the liabilities of any other consolidated entity, or that the liabilities of any consolidated entity (including any special-purpose entity formed for a particular project) are obligations of any other consolidated entity.

Pursuant to the terms of the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership, each of the limited partners has the right to redeem such partner’s units of limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership (“OP Units”) for cash or, at our election, we may acquire such OP Units in exchange for our common shares on a one-for-one basis, in some cases beginning one year following the respective issue date of the OP Units and in other cases immediately. If all of the outstanding OP Units held by limited partners had been redeemed for cash, the total amount that would have been distributed as of June 30, 2012 would have been $34.6 million, which is calculated using our June 29, 2012 closing share price on the New York Stock Exchange of $14.98 multiplied by the number of outstanding OP Units held by limited partners, which was 2,309,118 as of June 30, 2012.

We provide management, leasing and real estate development services through two companies: PREIT Services, LLC (“PREIT Services”), which generally develops and manages properties that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes, and PREIT-RUBIN, Inc. (“PRI”), which generally develops and manages properties that we do not consolidate for financial reporting purposes, including properties owned by partnerships in which we own an interest and properties that are owned by third parties in which we do not have an interest. PREIT Services and PRI are consolidated. PRI is a taxable REIT subsidiary, as defined by federal tax laws, which means that it is able to offer an expanded menu of services to tenants without jeopardizing our continuing qualification as a REIT under federal tax law.

We evaluate operating results and allocate resources on a property-by-property basis, and do not distinguish or evaluate consolidated operations on a geographic basis. We do not have any significant revenue or asset concentrations, and thus the individual properties have been aggregated into one reportable segment based upon their similarities with regard to the nature of our properties and the nature of our tenants and operational processes, as well as long-term financial performance. In addition, no single tenant accounts for 10% or more of consolidated revenue, and none of our properties are located outside the United States.

Fair Value

Fair value accounting applies to reported balances that are required or permitted to be measured at fair value under existing accounting pronouncements.

Fair value measurements are determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, these accounting requirements establish a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).

Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access.

Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs might include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, as well as inputs that are observable for the asset or liability (other than quoted prices), such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, and are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity.

In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. We utilize the fair value hierarchy in our accounting for derivatives (Level 2) and financial instruments (Level 2) and in our reviews for impairment of real estate assets (Level 3) and goodwill (Level 3).

New Accounting Developments

Effective January 1, 2012, in conjunction with our implementation of updates to the fair value measurements guidance, we made an accounting policy election to measure derivative financial instruments subject to master netting agreements on a net basis. This accounting policy election did not have a material effect on our financial statements.

⁽¹⁾

Excess investment represents the unamortized difference between our investment and our share of the equity in the underlying net investment in the partnerships. The excess investment is amortized over the life of the properties, and the amortization is included in “Equity in income of partnerships.”

We record distributions from our equity investments as cash from operating activities up to an amount equal to the equity in income of partnerships. Amounts in excess of our share of the income in the equity investments are treated as a return of partnership capital and recorded as cash from investing activities.

The following table summarizes our share of equity in income of partnerships for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011:

4. FINANCING ACTIVITY

Amended, Restated and Consolidated Senior Secured Credit Agreement

Our credit facility consists of a revolving line of credit with a capacity of $250.0 million (the “Revolving Facility”) and term loans with an aggregate balance as of June 30, 2012 of $240.0 million (collectively, the “2010 Term Loan” and, together with the Revolving Facility and as amended, the “2010 Credit Facility”).

As of June 30, 2012, $65.0 million was outstanding under our Revolving Facility. No amounts were pledged as collateral for letters of credit, and the unused portion that was available to us was $185.0 million at June 30, 2012.

The weighted average interest rate on outstanding Revolving Facility borrowings as of June 30, 2012 was 4.25%. Interest expense related to the Revolving Facility was $0.6 million for each of the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $1.5 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, excluding non-cash amortization of deferred financing fees.

As of June 30, 2012, $240.0 million was outstanding under the 2010 Term Loan. The weighted average effective interest rates based on amounts borrowed under the 2010 Term Loan for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 were 4.99% and 5.01%, respectively. Interest expense excluding non-cash amortization of deferred financing fees related to the 2010 Term Loan was $3.9 million and $5.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, and $7.2 million and $10.7 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

Deferred financing fee amortization associated with the 2010 Credit Facility for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $0.9 million and $1.0 million, respectively. Deferred financing fee amortization associated with the 2010 Credit Facility for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $1.8 million and $1.9 million, respectively.

The 2010 Credit Facility contains affirmative and negative covenants of the type customarily found in credit facilities of this nature. As of June 30, 2012, we were in compliance with all financial covenants.

Exchangeable Notes

In June 2012, we repaid in full the $136.9 million of our Exchangeable Notes outstanding upon their maturity and accrued interest of $2.7 million, using $74.6 million in cash and $65.0 million from our Revolving Facility.

Interest expense related to our Exchangeable Notes for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $0.9 million and $1.4 million, respectively, excluding the non-cash amortization of debt discount of $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively, and the non-cash amortization of deferred financing fees of $0.1 million and $0.2 million, respectively.

Interest expense related to our Exchangeable Notes for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $2.3 million and $2.7 million, respectively, excluding the non-cash amortization of debt discount of $0.8 million and $1.0 million, respectively, and the non-cash amortization of deferred financing fees of $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

Mortgage Loans

The carrying value (including debt premium of $0.1 million and $0.3 million as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively) and estimated fair values of mortgage loans based on interest rates and market conditions at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were as follows:


	June 30, 2012				December 31, 2011
(in millions of dollars)	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value

Mortgage loans	$	1,741.8	$	1,769.4	$	1,691.4	$	1,683.4

The mortgage loans contain various customary default provisions. As of June 30, 2012, we were not in default on any of the mortgage loans.

Mortgage Loan Activity

The following table presents the mortgage loans we have entered into since January 1, 2012 relating to our consolidated properties:


Financing Date	Property	Amount Financed or Extended (in millions of dollars)	Stated Rate	Maturity
January	New River Valley Mall	$28.1	LIBOR plus 3.00%	January 2019
February	Capital City Mall	65.8	5.30% fixed	March 2022
July	Christiana Center	50.0	4.64% fixed	August 2022

Other 2012 Activity

In June 2012, we exercised our remaining one-year extension option on the mortgage loan secured by Paxton Towne Centre in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. In connection with the exercise of this extension option, we repaid $4.0 million of the outstanding balance, which reduced the principal balance to $50.0 million.

5. CASH FLOW INFORMATION

Cash paid for interest was $58.9 million (net of capitalized interest of $1.1 million) and $63.8 million (net of capitalized interest of $0.7 million) for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Contractual Obligations

As of June 30, 2012, we had unaccrued contractual and other commitments related to our capital improvement projects and development projects of $12.5 million in the form of tenant allowances, lease termination fees, and contracts with general service providers and other professional service providers.

Employment Agreements

In April 2012, we entered into amended employment agreements with Joseph F. Coradino and Ronald Rubin that became effective on June 7, 2012, the date that Mr. Coradino became our Chief Executive Officer and Mr. Rubin became our Executive Chairman.

Mr. Coradino’s employment agreement will have an initial term of two years, after which it will renew annually for one-year terms unless either party gives notice of non-renewal at least 120 days prior to the end of the then current term.

Mr. Rubin’s employment agreement will have an initial term of three years, after which it will renew annually for one-year terms unless either party gives notice of non-renewal at least 120 days prior to the end of the then current term.

Provision for Executive Separation Expenses

In connection with the appointment of Joseph F. Coradino as Chief Executive Officer in June 2012, conditions in President and Chief Operating Officer Edward Glickman’s employment agreement were triggered that caused us to record a provision for executive separation expense of $0.5 million in June 2012. Upon Mr. Rubin’s cessation of service as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and the beginning of Mr. Coradino’s service in that position on June 7, 2012, Edward Glickman became contractually entitled to voluntarily terminate his employment for good reason during the period from December 4, 2012 to June 2, 2013. Mr. Glickman would be entitled to a cash payment, all time-based equity awards made to him would vest, and all outstanding performance-based equity awards would remain outstanding and would vest or be forfeited based on the terms of such awards as if Mr. Glickman’s employment had not terminated. Mr. Glickman also would be entitled to receive other benefits as set forth in his employment agreement. Through December 2012, we expect to record a total provision of $4.0 million related to Mr. Glickman’s employment agreement.

Also, in April 2012, Ronald Rubin executed a new employment agreement which required us to record a provision for executive separation expense of $0.3 million in June 2012. We expect to record a total provision for executive separation of $4.5 million ($2.6 million through December 2012 and an additional $1.9 million through June 2013) related to Mr. Rubin’s employment agreement.

7. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

We lease our principal executive offices from Bellevue Associates (the “Landlord”), an entity in which certain of our officers/trustees have an interest. Under the original lease, our annual base rent was $1.5 million. Our total rent expense in 2011 was $1.8 million. The office lease had an initial 10 year term that commenced on November 1, 2004. We had the option to renew the office lease for up to two additional five year periods at the then-current fair market rate calculated in accordance with the terms of the office lease. Ronald Rubin and George F. Rubin, collectively with members of their immediate families and affiliated entities, own approximately a 50% interest in the Landlord.

Under the office lease, we also had the right on one occasion at any time during the seventh lease year to terminate the lease upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. In April 2012, we entered into an amendment to our office lease with the Landlord, effective June 1, 2012. The amendment was negotiated in light of the aforementioned termination right. Under this amendment, the term has been extended for five years to October 31, 2019, and we have the option to renew the amended office lease for up to two additional periods for an aggregate of 10 years, at the then-current market base rental rate calculated in accordance with the terms of the amended office lease. The first extension period shall be no less than three and no more than seven years, at our discretion, and the second shall be for 10 years less the number of years of the first extension. The base rent will be approximately $1.2 million per year, increasing incrementally to approximately $1.4 million in 2019. Total rent expense under this lease was $0.4 million and $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $0.9 million for each of the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

In accordance with PREIT’s related party transactions policy, PREIT’s Special Committee considered and approved the terms of the amended lease.

8. DERIVATIVES

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to financial market risks, including interest rate risk on our interest bearing liabilities. We attempt to limit these risks by following established risk management policies, procedures and strategies, including the use of financial instruments such as derivatives. We do not use financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Our outstanding derivatives have been designated under applicable accounting authority as cash flow hedges. The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated as, and that qualify as, cash flow hedges is recorded in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. To the extent these instruments are ineffective as cash flow hedges, changes in the fair value of these instruments are recorded in “Interest expense, net.” We recognize all derivatives at fair value as either assets or liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Our derivative assets and liabilities are recorded in “Fair value of derivative instruments.”

Amounts reported in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” that are related to derivatives will be reclassified to “Interest expense, net” as interest payments are made on our corresponding debt. During the next twelve months, we estimate that $15.7 million will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense in connection with derivatives.

Interest Rate Swaps and Cap

As of June 30, 2012, we had entered into nine interest rate swap agreements with a weighted average interest rate of 2.93% on a notional amount of $617.3 million maturing on various dates through November 2013, and two forward starting interest rate swap agreements with a weighted average interest rate of 1.25% on a notional amount of $53.1 million maturing on various dates through January 2017.

We entered into these interest rate swap agreements (including the forward starting swap agreements) in order to hedge the interest payments associated with the 2010 Credit Facility and our issuances of variable interest rate long-term debt. We have assessed the effectiveness of these interest rate swap agreements as hedges at inception and on a quarterly basis. On June 30, 2012, we considered these interest rate swap agreements to be highly effective as cash flow hedges. The interest rate swap agreements are net settled monthly.

Accumulated other comprehensive loss as of June 30, 2012 includes a net loss of $9.9 million relating to forward-starting swaps that we cash settled in prior years that are being amortized over 10 year periods commencing on the closing dates of the debt instruments that are associated with these settled swaps.

The following table summarizes the terms and estimated fair values of our interest rate swap, cap and forward starting swap derivative instruments at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The notional amounts provide an indication of the extent of our involvement in these instruments, but do not represent exposure to credit, interest rate or market risks. The fair values of our derivative instruments are recorded in “Fair value of derivative instruments” on our balance sheet.

As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we do not have any significant recurring fair value measurements related to derivative instruments using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3).

The table below presents the effect of our derivative financial instruments on our consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011:

Credit-Risk-Related Contingent Features

We have agreements with some of our derivative counterparties that contain a provision pursuant to which, if our entity that originated such derivative instruments defaults on any of its indebtedness, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then we could also be declared in default on our derivative obligations. As of June 30, 2012, we were not in default on any of our derivative obligations.

We have an agreement with a derivative counterparty that incorporates the loan covenant provisions of our loan agreement with a lender affiliated with the derivative counterparty. Failure to comply with the loan covenant provisions would result in us being in default on any derivative instrument obligations covered by the agreement.

As of June 30, 2012, the fair value of derivatives in a net liability position, which excludes accrued interest but includes any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements, was $16.8 million. If we had breached any of the default provisions in these agreements as of June 30, 2012, we might have been required to settle our obligations under the agreements at their termination value (including accrued interest) of $18.6 million. We had not breached any of these provisions as of June 30, 2012.

9. SERIES A PREFERRED SHARE OFFERING

In April 2012, we issued 4,600,000 8.25% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Shares (the “Preferred Shares”) in a public offering at $25.00 per share. We received net proceeds from the offering of $110.7 million after deducting payment of the underwriting discount of $3.6 million ($0.7875 per Preferred Share) and estimated offering expenses of $0.7 million. We used a portion of the net proceeds from this offering to repay all $30.0 million of then-outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility. Immediately after the repayment, there were no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility.

the occurrence of a Change of Control, as defined in the Trust Agreement addendum designating the Preferred Shares. On and after April 20, 2017, we may, at our option, redeem any or all of the Preferred Shares for cash at $25.00 per share plus, subject to exceptions, any accrued and unpaid dividends to but excluding the date fixed for redemption. In addition, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, we may, at our option, redeem any or all of the Preferred Shares for cash within 120 days after the first date on which such Change of Control occurred at $25.00 per share plus, subject to certain exceptions, any accrued and unpaid dividends to but excluding the date fixed for redemption. The Preferred Shares have no stated maturity, are not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless we redeem or otherwise repurchase them or they become convertible and are converted.

As of June 30, 2012, there was $0.4 million in accumulated but unpaid dividends relating to the preferred shares. This amount was deducted from net loss to determine net loss attributable to common shareholders. This amount was not deducted from distributions in excess of net income as of June 30, 2012 because the dividend on the preferred shares was not yet declared at that time.

Item 2.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

The following analysis of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our unaudited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included elsewhere in this report.

OVERVIEW

Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust, a Pennsylvania business trust founded in 1960 and one of the first equity real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) in the United States, has a primary investment focus on retail shopping malls located in the eastern half of the United States, primarily in the Mid-Atlantic region. Our portfolio currently consists of a total of 49 properties in 13 states, including 38 enclosed malls, eight strip and power centers and three development properties. The operating retail properties have a total of approximately 33.1 million square feet. The operating retail properties that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes have a total of approximately 28.5 million square feet, of which we own approximately 22.8 million square feet. The operating retail properties that are owned by unconsolidated partnerships with third parties have a total of approximately 4.6 million square feet, of which 3.1 million square feet are owned by such partnerships. The development portion of our portfolio contains three properties in two states, with two classified as “mixed use” (a combination of retail and other uses) and one classified as “other.”

Our primary business is owning and operating retail shopping malls, which we primarily do through our operating partnership, PREIT Associates, L.P. (“PREIT Associates”). We provide management, leasing and real estate development services through PREIT Services, LLC (“PREIT Services”), which generally develops and manages properties that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes, and PREIT-RUBIN, Inc. (“PRI”), which generally develops and manages properties that we do not consolidate for financial reporting purposes, including properties we own interests in through partnerships with third parties and properties that are owned by third parties in which we do not have an interest. PRI is a taxable REIT subsidiary, as defined by federal tax laws, which means that it is able to offer additional services to tenants without jeopardizing our continuing qualification as a REIT under federal tax law.

Our revenue consists primarily of fixed rental income, additional rent in the form of expense reimbursements, and percentage rent (rent that is based on a percentage of our tenants’ sales or a percentage of sales in excess of thresholds that are specified in the leases) derived from our income producing properties. We also receive income from our real estate partnership investments and from the management and leasing services PRI provides.

Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was $12.4 million, a decrease of $6.6 million compared to a net loss of $19.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This decrease was primarily due to lower depreciation and amortization expenses and lower interest expenses. Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $22.8 million, a decrease of $11.1 million compared to a net loss of $33.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. This decrease was primarily due to lower depreciation and amortization expenses and lower interest expenses.

We evaluate operating results and allocate resources on a property-by-property basis, and do not distinguish or evaluate our consolidated operations on a geographic basis. We do not have any significant revenue or asset concentrations, and thus the individual properties have been aggregated into one reportable segment based upon their similarities with regard to the nature of our properties and the nature of our tenants and operational processes, as well as long-term financial performance. In addition, no single tenant accounts for 10% or more of our consolidated revenue, and none of our properties are located outside the United States.

We hold our interests in our portfolio of properties through our operating partnership, PREIT Associates. We are the sole general partner of PREIT Associates and, as of June 30, 2012, held a 96.0% interest in the Class A and Class B limited partnership units of PREIT Associates. We consolidate PREIT Associates for financial reporting purposes. We hold our investments in seven of the 46 retail properties and one of the three development properties in our portfolio through unconsolidated partnerships with third parties in which we own a 40% to 50% interest. We hold a noncontrolling interest in each unconsolidated partnership, and account for such partnerships using the equity method of accounting. We do not control any of these equity method investees for the following reasons:

•

Except for two properties that we co-manage with our partner, all of the other entities are managed on a day-to-day basis by one of our other partners as the managing general partner in each of the respective partnerships. In the case of the co-managed properties, all decisions in the ordinary course of business are made jointly.

•

The managing general partner is responsible for establishing the operating and capital decisions of the partnership, including budgets, in the ordinary course of business.

•

All major decisions of each partnership, such as the sale, refinancing, expansion or rehabilitation of the property, require the approval of all partners.

•

Voting rights and the sharing of profits and losses are generally in proportion to the ownership percentages of each partner.

We record the earnings from the unconsolidated partnerships using the equity method of accounting under the statements of operations caption entitled “Equity in income of partnerships,” rather than consolidating the results of the unconsolidated partnerships with our results. Changes in our investments in these entities are recorded in the balance sheet caption entitled “Investment in partnerships, at equity.” In the case of deficit investment balances, such amounts are recorded in “Distributions in excess of partnership investments.”

We hold our interest in three of our unconsolidated partnerships through tenancy in common arrangements. For each of these properties, title is held by us and another person or persons, and each has an undivided interest in the property. With respect to each of the three properties, under the applicable agreements between us and the other persons with ownership interests, we and such other persons have joint control because decisions regarding matters such as the sale, refinancing, expansion or rehabilitation of the property require the approval of both us and the other person (or at least one of the other persons) owning an interest in the property. Hence, we account for each of the properties using the equity method of accounting. The balance sheet items arising from these properties appear under the caption “Investments in partnerships, at equity.” The statements of operations items arising from these properties appear in “Equity in income of partnerships.”

For further information regarding our unconsolidated partnerships, see note 3 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Current Economic Conditions and Our Leverage

The conditions in the economy and the disruptions in the financial markets have caused fluctuations and variations in business and consumer confidence, resulted in continued levels of relatively high unemployment and, in turn, have negatively affected consumer spending on retail goods. We continue to adjust our plans and actions to take into account the current environment.

The conditions in the economy and their effect on retail sales, as well as our significant leverage resulting from use of debt to fund our redevelopment program and other development activity, have combined to necessitate that we consider various approaches to obtaining, using and recycling capital. In light of these conditions, we are focusing on appropriately managing our liquidity. We intend to consider all of our available options for accessing the capital markets, given our position and constraints. We believe that we have access to sufficient capital to fund our remaining redevelopment project and our other foreseeable capital improvement projects.

We continue to contemplate ways to reduce our leverage through a variety of means available to us, subject to and in accordance with the terms of our Amended, Restated and Consolidated Senior Secured Credit Agreement (as amended, the “2010 Credit Facility”). These steps might include obtaining additional equity capital, including through the issuance of common or preferred equity securities if market conditions are favorable, through our contribution of assets to joint ventures or other partnerships or arrangements with institutional investors, private equity investors or other REITs, through sales of properties or interests in properties with values in excess of their mortgage loans or allocable debt and application of the excess proceeds to debt reduction, through refinancing of properties in amounts that exceed prior mortgage balances or through other actions.

Capital Improvements and Development Projects

We might make capital improvements at our operating properties. Such improvements vary in cost and complexity, and can include building out new or existing space for individual tenants, upgrading common areas or exterior areas such as parking lots, or redeveloping the entire property, among other projects. Project costs are accumulated in “Construction in progress” on our consolidated balance sheet until the asset is placed into service, and amounted to $93.3 million as of June 30, 2012.

We are also engaged in several types of development projects. However, we do not expect to make any significant investment in these projects in the short term. As of June 30, 2012, we had incurred $57.3 million of costs (net of impairment charges recorded in prior years) related to our activity at development properties.

Dispositions

We did not dispose of any properties during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Critical Accounting Policies are those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that might change in subsequent periods. In preparing the unaudited consolidated financial statements, management has made estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. In preparing the financial statements, management has utilized available information, including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming its estimates and judgments, giving due consideration to materiality. Management has also considered events and changes in property, market and economic conditions, estimated future cash flows from property operations and the risk of loss on specific accounts or amounts in determining its estimates and judgments. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In addition, other companies may utilize different estimates, which may affect comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. The estimates and assumptions made by management in applying critical accounting policies have not changed materially during 2012 and 2011, except as otherwise noted, and none of these estimates or assumptions have proven to be materially incorrect or resulted in our recording any significant adjustments relating to prior periods. We will continue to monitor the key factors underlying our estimates and judgments, but no change is currently expected.

For additional information regarding our Critical Accounting Policies, see “Critical Accounting Policies” in Part II, Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2011.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

We have no material off-balance sheet items other than the partnerships described in note 3 to the unaudited consolidated financial statements and in the “Overview” section above.

The following information sets forth our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

Financial Overview

Net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2012 was $12.4 million, a decrease of $6.6 million compared to a net loss of $19.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2012 was $22.8 million, a decrease of $11.1 million compared to a net loss of $33.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Our June 30, 2012 results of operations were primarily affected by decreased depreciation and amortization expense and decreased interest expense.

Real Estate Revenue

Real estate revenue increased by $0.8 million, or 1%, in the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to:

•

an increase of $1.5 million in base rent, including a $0.6 million increase in straight line rent resulting from write-offs associated with the Borders Group, Inc. liquidation during the three months ended June 30, 2011 that did not recur in 2012. Base rent also increased due to new store openings at Cherry Hill Mall and Crossroads Mall;

•

a decrease of $0.4 million in expense reimbursements, primarily due to a $0.4 million decrease in utilities expense; and

•

partially offset by a decrease of $0.2 million in percentage rent, primarily due to lease renewals with higher base rent and corresponding higher sales breakpoints for calculating percentage rent.

Real estate revenue increased by $0.1 million, or 0%, in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to:

•

an increase of $1.8 million in base rent, primarily due to increases at Cherry Hill Mall and at Crossroads Mall due to new store openings and a straight line rent increase of $0.5 million resulting from write-offs associated with the Borders Group, Inc. liquidation during the six months ended June 30, 2011 that did not recur in 2012;

•

an increase of $0.7 million in lease terminations, primarily due to termination payments received from three tenants totaling $1.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012;

•

a decrease of $2.2 million in expense reimbursements, primarily due to a $1.3 million decrease in common area maintenance, real estate tax and utilities expenses. Our properties continue to experience a trend towards more gross leases (leases that provide that tenants pay a higher minimum rent in lieu of contributing toward common area maintenance costs and real estate taxes), as well as more leases that provide for the rent amount to be determined on the basis of a percentage of sales in lieu of minimum rent or any contribution toward common area maintenance or real estate tax expenses; and

•

a decrease of $0.3 million in percentage rent, primarily due to lease renewals with higher base rent and corresponding higher sales breakpoints for calculating percentage rent.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses decreased by $0.3 million, or 1%, in the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to:

•

a decrease of $0.4 million in non-common area utility expense due to lower electric rates as a result of deregulation and alternate supplier contracts executed over the past 12 months;

•

a decrease of $0.3 million in bad debt expense due to favorable collections resulting in lower accounts receivable balances, as well as fewer tenant bankruptcies compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011; and

•

partially offset by an increase of $0.6 million in common area maintenance expenses, including a $0.3 million increase in housekeeping and security services as a result of stipulated annual contractual increases.

Operating expenses decreased by $3.0 million, or 3%, in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to:

•

a decrease of $1.4 million in bad debt expense due to favorable collections resulting in lower accounts receivable balances, as well as fewer tenant bankruptcies compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011;

•

a decrease of $0.9 million in non-common area utility expense due in part to a mild winter with above average temperatures across the Mid-Atlantic states where many of our properties are located, and in part to lower electric rates as a result of deregulation and alternate supplier contracts executed over the past 12 months; and

•

a decrease of $0.8 million in common area maintenance expenses, including decreases of $1.7 million in snow removal expense and $0.4 million in common area utilities expense resulting from a mild and dry winter across the Mid-Atlantic states where many of our properties are located, partially offset by increases of $0.7 million in repairs and maintenance expense, and $0.5 million in housekeeping and security services as a result of stipulated annual contractual increases.

Net Operating Income (“NOI”)

NOI (a non-GAAP measure) is derived from real estate revenue (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, including lease termination revenue) minus operating expenses (determined in accordance with GAAP), plus our share of revenue and operating expenses of our partnership investments, and includes real estate revenue and operating expenses from properties included in discontinued operations, if any. It does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered to be an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our financial performance or to be an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity. It is not indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. We believe that NOI is helpful to management and investors as a measure of operating performance because it is an indicator of the return on property investment, and provides a method of comparing property performance over time. We believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measurement to NOI.

NOI excludes interest and other income, general and administrative expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, gains on sales of interests in real estate, gains on sales of non-operating real estate, gains on sales of discontinued operations, gain on extinguishment of debt, impairment losses, project costs and other expenses.

The following table presents NOI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. The results are presented using the “proportionate-consolidation method” (a non-GAAP measure), which presents our share of the results of our partnership investments. Under GAAP, we account for our partnership investments under the equity method of accounting. Operating results for retail properties that we owned for the full periods presented (“Same Store”) exclude properties acquired or disposed of during the periods presented. A reconciliation of NOI to net loss determined in accordance with GAAP appears under the heading “Reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to Non-GAAP Measures.”

Total NOI increased by $1.4 million, or 2%, in the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011, driven by a $1.4 million increase in Same Store NOI. See “—Real Estate Revenue” and “—Operating Expenses” above for further information about our consolidated properties.

Total NOI increased by $3.7 million, or 3%, in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011, driven by a $3.7 million increase in Same Store NOI. See “—Real Estate Revenue” and “—Operating Expenses” above for further information about our consolidated properties.

NOI includes lease termination revenue of $0.8 million and $0.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $1.4 million and $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $3.2 million, or 9%, in the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to:

•

a decrease of $1.9 million resulting from tenant improvement and deferred leasing commission write-offs recorded during the three months ended June 30, 2011, including $1.0 million associated with the Borders Group, Inc. liquidation, that did not recur in 2012; and

•

a decrease of $1.1 million because certain lease intangibles at four properties purchased during 2004 and 2005 became fully amortized after June 30, 2011.

Depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $4.0 million, or 6%, in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to:

•

a decrease of $1.7 million resulting from tenant improvement and deferred leasing commission write-offs associated with the Borders Group, Inc. liquidation recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2011 that did not recur in 2012; and

•

a decrease of $2.0 million because certain lease intangibles at four properties purchased during 2004 and 2005 became fully amortized after June 30, 2011.

Provision for Executive Separation Expense

In connection with the appointment of Joseph F. Coradino as Chief Executive Officer in June 2012, conditions in President and Chief Operating Officer Edward Glickman’s employment agreement were triggered that caused us to record a provision for executive separation expense of $0.5 million in June 2012. Upon Mr. Rubin’s cessation of service as Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and the beginning of Mr. Coradino’s service in that position on June 7, 2012, Edward Glickman became contractually entitled to voluntarily terminate his employment for good reason during the period from December 4, 2012 to June 2, 2013. Mr. Glickman would be entitled to a cash payment, all time based equity awards made to him would vest, and all outstanding performance-based equity awards would remain outstanding and would vest or be forfeited based on the terms of such awards as if Mr. Glickman’s employment had not terminated. Mr. Glickman also would be entitled to receive other benefits as set forth in his employment agreement. Through December 2012, we expect to record a total provision of $4.0 million related to Mr. Glickman’s employment agreement.

Interest Expense

Interest expense decreased by $3.1 million, or 9%, in the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011. This decrease was primarily due to lower applicable stated interest rates and lower weighted average debt balance. Our weighted average effective borrowing rate was 6.08% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to 6.41% for the three months ended June 30, 2011. Our weighted average debt balance was $2,129.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $2,202.2 for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Interest expense decreased by $5.1 million, or 7%, in the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30,2011. This decrease was primarily due to lower applicable stated interest rates and lower weighted average debt balance. Our weighted average borrowing rate was 6.02% for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to 6.26% for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Our weighted average debt balance was $2,214.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $2,142.9 for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Equity in Income of Partnerships

Equity in income of partnerships increased by $0.8 million, or 70%, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase was primarily due to a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of the partnerships of $0.5 million and a decrease in other expenses of $0.3 million.

Equity in income of partnerships increased by $1.3 million, or 47%, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase was primarily due to a decrease in depreciation and amortization expense of the partnerships of $0.6 million, an increase in revenue of $0.4 million and a decrease in other expenses of $0.3 million.

Funds From Operations

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) defines Funds From Operations (“FFO”), which is a non-GAAP measure commonly used by REITs, as net income excluding gains and losses on sales of operating properties (computed in accordance with GAAP), plus real estate depreciation and amortization; and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures to reflect funds from operations on the same basis. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by NAREIT, which may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition, or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do. In 2011, NAREIT reiterated its established guidance that excluding impairment write downs of depreciable real estate is consistent with the NAREIT definition.

We use FFO and FFO per diluted share and unit of limited partnership interest in our operating partnership (“OP Unit”) in measuring our performance against our peers and as one of the performance measures for determining incentive compensation amounts earned under certain of our performance-based executive compensation programs. FFO is a commonly used measure of operating performance and profitability among REITs, and we use FFO and FFO per diluted share and OP Unit as supplemental non-GAAP measures to compare our performance for different periods to that of our industry peers.

FFO does not include gains and losses on sales of operating real estate assets which are included in the determination of net income in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, FFO is not a comprehensive measure of our operating cash flows. In addition, since FFO does not include depreciation on real estate assets, FFO may not be a useful performance measure when comparing our operating performance to that of other non-real estate commercial enterprises. We compensate for these limitations by using FFO in conjunction with other GAAP financial performance measures, such as net income and net cash provided by operating activities, and other non-GAAP financial performance measures, such as NOI. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered to be an alternative to net income (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our financial performance or to be an alternative to cash flow from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP) as a measure of our liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available for our cash needs, including our ability to make cash distributions. We believe that net income is the most directly comparable GAAP measurement to FFO.

We also present Funds From Operations, as adjusted, and Funds From Operations per diluted share and OP Unit, as adjusted, which are non-GAAP measures, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 to show the effect of the provision for executive separation expense, which had a significant effect on our results of operations, but is not, in our opinion, indicative of our operating performance.

We believe that FFO is helpful to management and investors as a measure of operating performance because it excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, such as gains on sales of operating real estate and depreciation and amortization of real estate, among others. We believe that Funds From Operations, as adjusted, is helpful to management and investors as a measure of operating performance because it adjusts FFO to exclude items that management does not believe are indicative of its operating performance, such as provision for executive separation expense.

The following table presents FFO and FFO per diluted share and OP Unit and FFO, as adjusted, and FFO per diluted share and OP Unit, as adjusted, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011:

⁽¹⁾	In accordance with updated NAREIT guidance regarding the definition of FFO, impairment losses of depreciable real estate are excluded from FFO. Prior period FFO and FFO per diluted share and OP Unit amounts have been revised to reflect this updated NAREIT guidance.

FFO was $20.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012, an increase of $1.6 million, or 8%, compared to $19.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This increase primarily was due to:

•

a decrease in interest expense of $3.2 million;

•

an increase of $1.4 million in NOI (presented using the “proportionate-consolidation” method; See “—Net Operating Income”); and offset by

•

preferred dividends of $1.8 million related to the preferred shares issued in April 2012;

•

⁽¹⁾	In accordance with updated NAREIT guidance regarding the definition of FFO, impairment losses of depreciable real estate are excluded from FFO. Prior period FFO and FFO per diluted share and OP Unit amounts have been revised to reflect this updated NAREIT guidance.

FFO was $45.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012, an increase of $5.3 million, or 13%, compared to $40.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. This increase primarily was due to:

•

a decrease in interest expense of $5.1 million;

•

an increase of $3.7 million in NOI (presented using the “proportionate-consolidation” method; See “—Net Operating Income”); and offset by

•

preferred dividends of $1.8 million related to the preferred shares issued in April 2012;

•

provision for executive separation expense of $0.8 million recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2012; and

•

gains on sales of real estate of $0.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2011 that did not recur in 2012.

FFO per diluted share increased $0.09 per share to $0.79 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2012, compared to $0.70 per share for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Reconciliation of GAAP Net Loss to Non-GAAP Measures

The preceding discussions compare our unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations results for different periods based on GAAP. Also, the non-GAAP measures of NOI and FFO are discussed. We believe that NOI is helpful to management and investors as a measure of operating performance because it is an indicator of the return on property investment, and provides a method of comparing property performance over time. We believe that FFO is helpful to management and investors as a measure of operating performance because it excludes various items included in net income that do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, such as gains on sales of operating real estate and depreciation and amortization of real estate, among others. FFO is a commonly used measure of operating performance and profitability among REITs, and we use FFO and FFO per diluted share and OP Unit as supplemental non-GAAP measures to compare our performance for different periods to that of our industry peers.

The following information is provided to reconcile NOI and FFO, which are non-GAAP measures, to net loss, a GAAP measure:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

This “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section contains certain “forward-looking statements” that relate to expectations and projections that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views about our future liquidity and capital resources, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that might cause our actual liquidity and capital resources to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Additional factors that might affect our liquidity and capital resources include those discussed in the section entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2011 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We do not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements about our liquidity and capital resources to reflect new information, future events or otherwise.

Capital Resources

We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements, including distributions to common and preferred shareholders, recurring capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions, but excluding development and redevelopment projects, generally through our available working capital and net cash provided by operations, and subject to the terms and conditions of our 2010 Credit Facility. We believe that our net cash provided by operations will be sufficient to allow us to make any distributions necessary to enable us to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The aggregate distributions made to preferred shareholders, common shareholders and OP Unit holders for the first six months of 2012 were $19.4 million, based on distributions of $0.3151 per preferred share and $0.31 per common share and OP Unit. The following are some of the factors that could affect our cash flows and require the funding of future cash distributions, recurring capital expenditures, tenant improvements or leasing commissions with sources other than operating cash flows:

•

adverse changes or prolonged downturns in general, local or retail industry economic, financial, credit or capital market or competitive conditions, leading to a reduction in real estate revenue or cash flows or an increase in expenses;

•

deterioration in our tenants’ business operations and financial stability, including anchor or in-line tenant bankruptcies, leasing delays or terminations, or lower sales, causing deferrals or declines in rent, percentage rent and cash flows;

•

inability to achieve targets for, or decreases in, property occupancy and rental rates, resulting in lower or delayed real estate revenue and operating income;

•

increases in operating costs, including increases that cannot be passed on to tenants, resulting in reduced operating income and cash flows; and

•

increases in interest rates resulting in higher borrowing costs.

We expect to meet certain of our longer-term requirements, such as remaining obligations to fund development and redevelopment projects and certain capital requirements, including scheduled debt maturities, future property and portfolio acquisitions, expenses associated with acquisitions and renovations, expansions and other non-recurring capital improvements, through a variety of capital sources, subject to the terms and conditions of our 2010 Credit Facility.

The conditions in the market for debt capital and commercial mortgage loans (including the commercial mortgage backed securities market and the state of domestic and international bank and life insurance company real estate lending), and the conditions in the economy and their effect on retail sales, as well as our significant leverage resulting from debt incurred to fund our redevelopment program and other development activity, have combined to necessitate that we consider various approaches to obtaining, using and recycling capital. In light of these conditions, we are focusing on appropriately managing our liquidity. We intend to consider all of our available options for accessing the capital markets, given our position and constraints. We believe that we have sufficient capital to fund our remaining redevelopment project and our other foreseeable capital improvement projects.

In the past, one avenue available to us to finance our obligations or new business initiatives has been to obtain unsecured debt, based in part on the existence of properties in our portfolio that were not subject to mortgage loans. The terms of the 2010 Credit Facility include our grant of a security interest consisting of a first lien on 20 properties. As a result, we have very few remaining assets that we could use to support unsecured debt financing. Our lack of properties in the portfolio that could be used to support unsecured debt might limit our ability to obtain capital in this way.

We continue to contemplate ways to reduce our leverage through a variety of means available to us, and subject to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the 2010 Credit Facility. These steps might include obtaining equity capital, including through the issuance of common or preferred equity securities if market conditions are favorable, through our contribution of assets to joint ventures or other partnerships or arrangements with institutional investors, private equity investors or other REITs, through sales of properties or interests in properties with values in excess of their mortgage loans or allocable debt and application of the excess proceeds to debt reduction, through refinancing of properties in amounts that exceed prior mortgage balances, or through other actions.

In January 2012, the SEC declared effective our $1.0 billion universal shelf registration statement. We may use the availability under our shelf registration statement to offer and sell common shares of beneficial interest, preferred shares and various types of debt securities, among other types of securities, to the public. In April 2012, we issued $115.0 million of preferred shares in an underwritten public offering under this registration statement. However, in the future, we may be unable to issue securities under the shelf registration statement, or otherwise, on terms that are favorable to us, or at all.

Amended, Restated and Consolidated Senior Secured Credit Agreement

As of June 30, 2012, $240.0 million was outstanding under the 2010 Term Loan. The weighted average effective interest rates based on amounts borrowed under the 2010 Term Loan for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 were 4.99% and 5.01%, respectively. Interest expense, excluding non-cash amortization of deferred financing fees related to the 2010 Term Loan, was $3.9 million and $5.6 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, and $7.2 million and $10.7 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

Amounts borrowed under the 2010 Credit Facility bear interest at a rate between 2.75% and 4.00% per annum, depending on our leverage, in excess of LIBOR. The rate in effect at June 30, 2012 was 4.00%. We expect this rate to decrease to 3.50% in the third quarter of 2012. The following table presents the applicable credit spread over LIBOR at various leverage levels:


Less than 50%	2.75	%
Equal to or greater than 50% but less than 55%	3.00	%
Equal to or greater than 55% but less than 60%	3.25	%
Equal to or greater than 60% but less than 65%	3.50	%
Equal to or greater than 65% but less than 70%	4.00	%

Exchangeable Notes

In June 2012, we repaid in full the $136.9 million of our Exchangeable Notes outstanding upon their maturity and accrued interest of $2.7 million using $74.6 million in cash and $65.0 million from our Revolving Facility.

Preferred Share Offering

In April 2012, we issued 4,600,000 8.25% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Shares (the “Preferred Shares”) in a public offering at $25.00 per share. We received net proceeds from the offering of $110.7 million after deducting payment of the underwriting discount of $3.6 million ($0.7875 per Preferred Share) and estimated offering expenses of $0.7 million. We used a portion of the net proceeds from this offering to repay $30.0 million of then-outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility.

We may not redeem the Preferred Shares before April 20, 2017, except under circumstances intended to preserve our status as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, for federal and/or state income tax purposes, and except upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, as defined in the Trust Agreement addendum designating the Preferred Shares. On and after April 20, 2017, we may, at our option, redeem any or all of the Preferred Shares for cash at $25.00 per share plus, subject to exceptions, any accrued and unpaid dividends to but excluding the date fixed for redemption. In addition, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, we may, at our option, redeem any or all of the Preferred Shares for cash within 120 days after the first date on which such Change of Control occurred at $25.00 per share plus, subject to certain exceptions, any accrued and unpaid dividends to but excluding the date fixed for redemption. The Preferred Shares have no stated maturity, are not subject to any sinking fund or mandatory redemption and will remain outstanding indefinitely unless we redeem or otherwise repurchase them or they become convertible and are converted.

Interest Rate Derivative Agreements

As of June 30, 2012, we had entered into nine interest rate swap agreements with a weighted average interest rate of 2.93% on a notional amount of $617.3 million maturing on various dates through November 2013, and two forward starting interest rate swap agreements that have a weighted average interest rate of 1.25% on a notional amount of $53.1 million maturing on various dates through January 2017.

As of June 30, 2012, the aggregate estimated unrealized net loss attributed to these interest rate derivatives was $16.8 million. The carrying amount of the derivative assets is reflected in “Deferred costs and other assets,” the associated liabilities are reflected in “Accrued expenses and other liabilities” and the net unrealized loss is reflected in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” in the accompanying balance sheets.

In June 2012, we exercised our remaining one-year extension option on the mortgage loan secured by Paxton Town Centre in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. In connection with the exercise of this extension option, we repaid $4.0 million of the outstanding balance, which reduced the principal balance to $50.0 million.

Mortgage Loans

Twenty-six mortgage loans, which are secured by 24 of our consolidated properties, are due in installments over various terms extending to the year 2032. Seventeen of the mortgage loans bear interest at a fixed rate and nine of the mortgage loans bear interest at variable rates.

The balances of the fixed rate mortgage loans have interest rates that range from 4.95% to 9.36% and had a weighted average interest rate of 5.81% at June 30, 2012. The nine variable rate mortgage loan balances had a weighted average interest rate of 2.44% at June 30, 2012. The weighted average interest rate of all consolidated mortgage loans was 4.97% at June 30, 2012. Mortgage loans for properties owned by unconsolidated partnerships are accounted for in “Investments in partnerships, at equity” and “Distributions in excess of partnership investments” on the consolidated balance sheets and are not included in the table below.

The following table outlines the timing of principal payments related to our mortgage loans as of June 30, 2012:

⁽¹⁾

We have four mortgage loans secured by three properties that are scheduled to mature by their terms in 2012 with an aggregate balance of $315.2 million as of June 30, 2012, including the mortgage loans secured by Cherry Hill Mall that had an aggregate balance of $231.9 million as of June 30, 2012. We expect to refinance these mortgage loans with new mortgage loans secured by the underlying properties, or to extend the maturity according to the terms of the specific mortgage loan, or, to the extent that we are unable to obtain mortgage loans for these properties on terms that are satisfactory to us, or at all, we expect to utilize the Revolving Facility and other capital resources to repay the amounts outstanding under such mortgage loans.

⁽²⁾	The 2010 Credit Facility, which is comprised of the 2010 Term Loan and the Revolving Facility, has a variable interest rate that ranges between 2.75% and 4.00% plus LIBOR depending on our total leverage ratio.

⁽³⁾	Includes payments expected to be made in connection with interest rate swaps and forward starting interest rate swap agreements.

⁽⁴⁾	The timing of the payments of these amounts is uncertain. We expect that the majority of such payments will be made prior to December 31, 2012, but cannot provide any assurances that changed circumstances at these projects will not delay the settlement of these obligations.

Preferred Share Dividends

Annual dividends on 4,600,000 of our Preferred Shares are expected to be $9.5 million. In 2012, we expect to pay preferred share dividends of $6.2 million, including $1.4 million paid in June 2012 and a $2.4 million dividend ($.515625 per preferred share) that was declared in July 2012 and payable on September 17, 2012 to preferred shareholders of record as of August 31, 2012.

CASH FLOWS

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $63.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to $51.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. This increase in cash from operating activities was primarily due to increased net operating income, lower interest expense, and other working capital changes.

Cash flows used in investing activities were $42.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to cash flows provided by investing activities of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 reflected investment in construction in progress of $19.7 million and real estate improvements of $10.2 million, primarily related to ongoing maintenance of our properties. Investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 reflected investment in construction in progress of $5.0 million and real estate improvements of $17.3 million. Investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 reflected $7.3 million of proceeds from sales of real estate and $14.9 million in proceeds related to mortgage loans at two of our unconsolidated properties.

Cash flows used in financing activities were $27.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to cash flows used in financing activities of $70.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011. Cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 included the repayment of exchangeable notes of $136.9 million, dividends and distributions of $19.4 million, principal installments on mortgage loans of $11.1 million and a net $30.0 million pay down of the Revolving Facility. We also received $110.7 million in net proceeds from the issuance of preferred shares and $65.8 million in proceeds from a mortgage loan on Capital City Mall in the six months ended June 30, 2012. Cash flows used in financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011 reflected dividends and distributions of $17.4 million and principal installments on mortgage loans of $10.3 million.

COMMITMENTS

ENVIRONMENTAL

We are aware of certain environmental matters at some of our properties, including ground water contamination and the presence of asbestos containing materials. We have, in the past, performed remediation of such environmental matters, and we are not aware of any significant remaining potential liability relating to these environmental matters. We may be required in the future to perform testing relating to these matters. We have insurance coverage for certain environmental claims up to $10.0 million per occurrence and up to $20.0 million in the aggregate.

COMPETITION AND TENANT CREDIT RISK

Competition in the retail real estate industry is intense. We compete with other public and private retail real estate companies, including companies that own or manage malls, strip centers, power centers, lifestyle centers, factory outlet centers, theme/festival centers and community centers, as well as other commercial real estate developers and real estate owners, particularly those with properties near our properties, on the basis of several factors, including location and rent charged. We compete with these companies to attract customers to our properties, as well as to attract anchor and in-line store and other tenants. We also compete to acquire land for new site development, during more favorable economic conditions. Our malls and our strip and power centers face competition from similar retail centers, including more recently developed or renovated centers that are near our retail properties. We also face competition from a variety of different retail formats, including internet retailers, discount or value retailers, home shopping networks, mail order operators, catalogs, and telemarketers. Our tenants face competition from companies at the same and other properties and from other retail formats as well. This competition could have a material adverse effect on our ability to lease space and on the amount of rent and expense reimbursements that we receive.

The development of competing retail properties and the related increased competition for tenants might, subject to the terms and conditions of the 2010 Credit Facility, require us to make capital improvements to properties that we would have deferred or would not have otherwise planned to make and might also affect the total sales, sales per square foot, occupancy and net operating income of such properties. Any such capital improvements, undertaken individually or collectively, would involve costs and expenses that could adversely affect our results of operations.

We compete with many other entities engaged in real estate investment activities for acquisitions of malls, other retail properties and other prime development sites, including institutional pension funds, other REITs and other owner-operators of retail properties. Our efforts to compete for acquisitions are also subject to the terms and conditions of our 2010 Credit Facility. Given current economic, capital market and retail industry conditions, however, there has been substantially less competition with respect to acquisition activity in recent quarters. When we seek to make acquisitions, competitors might drive up the price we must pay for properties, parcels, other assets or other companies or might themselves succeed in acquiring those properties, parcels, assets or companies. In addition, our potential acquisition targets might find our competitors to be more attractive suitors if they have greater resources, are willing to pay more, or have a more compatible operating philosophy. In particular, larger REITs might enjoy significant competitive advantages that result from, among other things, a lower cost of capital, a better ability to raise capital, a better ability to finance an acquisition, and enhanced operating efficiencies. We might not succeed in acquiring retail properties or development sites that we seek, or, if we pay a higher price for a property and/or generate lower cash flow from an acquired property than we expect, our investment returns will be reduced, which will adversely affect the value of our securities.

We receive a substantial portion of our operating income as rent under leases with tenants. At any time, any tenant having space in one or more of our properties could experience a downturn in its business that might weaken its financial condition. Such tenants might enter into or renew leases with relatively shorter terms. Such tenants might also defer or fail to make rental payments when due, delay or defer lease commencement, voluntarily vacate the premises or declare bankruptcy, which could result in the termination of the tenant’s lease or preclude the collection of rent in connection with the space for a period of time, and could result in material losses to us and harm to our results of operations. Also, it might take time to terminate leases of underperforming or nonperforming tenants and we might incur costs to remove such tenants. Some of our tenants occupy stores at multiple locations in our

portfolio, and so the effect of any bankruptcy or store closings of those tenants might be more significant to us than the bankruptcy or store closings of other tenants. Given current conditions in the economy, certain industries and the capital markets, in some instances retailers that have sought protection from creditors under bankruptcy law have had difficulty in obtaining debtor-in-possession financing, which has decreased the likelihood that such retailers will emerge from bankruptcy protection and has limited their alternatives. In addition, under many of our leases, our tenants pay rent based, in whole or in part, on a percentage of their sales. Accordingly, declines in these tenants’ sales directly affect our results of operations. Also, if tenants are unable to comply with the terms of their leases, or otherwise seek changes to the terms, including changes to the amount of rent, we might modify lease terms in ways that are less favorable to us.

SEASONALITY

There is seasonality in the retail real estate industry. Retail property leases often provide for the payment of a portion of rent based on a percentage of a tenant’s sales revenue over certain levels. Income from such rent is recorded only after the minimum sales levels have been met. The sales levels are often met in the fourth quarter, during the December holiday season. Also, many new and temporary leases are entered into later in the year in anticipation of the holiday season and a higher number of tenants vacate their space early in the year. As a result, our occupancy and cash flows are generally higher in the fourth quarter and lower in the first quarter. Our concentration in the retail sector increases our exposure to seasonality and is expected to continue to result in a greater percentage of our cash flows being received in the fourth quarter.

INFLATION

Inflation can have many effects on financial performance. Retail property leases often provide for the payment of rent based on a percentage of sales, which might increase with inflation. Leases may also provide for tenants to bear all or a portion of operating expenses, which might reduce the impact of such increases on us. However, rent increases might not keep up with inflation, or if we recover a smaller proportion of property operating expenses, we might bear more costs if such expenses increase because of inflation.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, together with other statements and information publicly disseminated by us, contain certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements relate to expectations, beliefs, projections, future plans, strategies, anticipated events, trends and other matters that are not historical facts. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views about future events, achievements or results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and changes in circumstances that might cause future events, achievements or results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. In particular, our business might be materially and adversely affected by uncertainties affecting real estate businesses generally as well as the following, among other factors:

•

our substantial debt and our high leverage ratio;

•

constraining leverage, interest and tangible net worth covenants under our 2010 Credit Facility;

•

our ability to refinance our existing indebtedness when it matures, on favorable terms or at all, due in part to the effects on us of dislocations and liquidity disruptions in the capital and credit markets;

•

our ability to raise capital, including through the issuance of equity or equity-related securities if market conditions are favorable, through joint ventures or other partnerships, through sales of properties or interests in properties, or through other actions;

•

our short- and long-term liquidity position;

•

current economic conditions and their effect on employment, consumer confidence and spending and the corresponding effects on tenant business performance, prospects, solvency and leasing decisions and on our cash flows, and the value and potential impairment of our properties;

•

general economic, financial and political conditions, including credit market conditions, changes in interest rates or unemployment;

•

changes in the retail industry, including consolidation and store closings, particularly among anchor tenants;

•

our ability to maintain and increase property occupancy, sales and rental rates, in light of the relatively high number of leases that have expired or are expiring in the next two years;

•

increases in operating costs that cannot be passed on to tenants;

•

risks relating to development and redevelopment activities;

•

the effects of online shopping and other uses of technology on our retail tenants;

•

concentration of our properties in the Mid-Atlantic region;

•

changes in local market conditions, such as the supply of or demand for retail space, or other competitive factors;

•

potential dilution from any capital raising transactions;

•

possible environmental liabilities;

•

our ability to obtain insurance at a reasonable cost; and

•

existence of complex regulations, including those relating to our status as a REIT, and the adverse consequences if we were to fail to qualify as a REIT.

Additional factors that might cause future events, achievements or results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements include those discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, as amended, in the section entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors.” We do not intend to update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect new information, future events or otherwise.

ITEM 3.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

The analysis below presents the sensitivity of the market value of our financial instruments to selected changes in market interest rates. As of June 30, 2012, our consolidated debt portfolio consisted primarily of $240.0 million borrowed under our 2010 Term Loan, which bore interest at a weighted average interest rate of 4.25%, $65.0 million borrowed under our Revolving Facility, which bore interest at a rate of 4.25% and $1,741.8 million in fixed and variable rate mortgage loans, including $0.1 million of mortgage debt premium.

Our interest rate risk is monitored using a variety of techniques. The table below presents the principal amounts of the expected annual maturities and the weighted average interest rates for the principal payments in the specified periods:


	Fixed Rate Debt					Variable Rate Debt
(in thousands of dollars) For the Year Ending December 31,	Principal Payments		Weighted Average Interest Rate			Principal Payments			Weighted Average Interest Rate⁽¹⁾
2012	$	278,722		5.61	%	$	44,579			2.09	%
2013	$	125,252		5.12	%	$	337,933			2.60	%
2014	$	112,391		6.54	%	$	305,697	⁽²⁾		1.84	%
2015	$	282,968		5.80	%	$	728			2.34	%
2016 and thereafter	$	505,639		7.80	%	$	52,820			3.12	%

⁽¹⁾	Based on the weighted average interest rates in effect as of June 30, 2012.

⁽²⁾	Includes 2010 Term Loan borrowings of $240.0 million with a weighted average interest rate of 4.25% and Revolving Facility borrowings of $65.0 million with a weighted average interest rate of 4.25% as of June 30, 2012.

As of June 30, 2012, we had $741.8 million of variable rate debt. Also, as of June 30, 2012, we had entered into nine interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate weighted average interest rate of 2.93% on a notional amount of $617.3 million maturing on various dates through November 2013, and two forward starting interest rate swap agreements with a weighted average interest rate of 1.25% on a notional amount of $53.1 million maturing on various dates through January 2017. We entered into these interest rate swap agreements in order to hedge the interest payments associated with the 2010 Credit Facility and our issuances of variable interest rate long-term debt.

Changes in market interest rates have different effects on the fixed and variable rate portions of our debt portfolio. A change in market interest rates applicable to the fixed portion of the debt portfolio affects the fair value, but it has no effect on interest incurred or cash flows. A change in market interest rates applicable to the variable portion of the debt portfolio affects the interest incurred and cash flows, but does not affect the fair value. The following sensitivity analysis related to our debt portfolio, which includes the effects of our interest rate swap agreements, assumes an immediate 100 basis point change in interest rates from their actual June 30, 2012 levels, with all other variables held constant.

A 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would have resulted in a decrease in our net financial instrument position of $38.6 million at June 30, 2012. A 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates would have resulted in an increase in our net financial instrument position of $36.2 million at June 30, 2012. Based on the variable rate debt included in our debt portfolio at June 30, 2012, a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would have resulted in an additional $1.3 million in interest annually. A 100 basis point decrease would have reduced interest incurred by $1.3 million annually.

To manage interest rate risk and limit overall interest cost, we may employ interest rate swaps, options, forwards, caps and floors, or a combination thereof, depending on the underlying exposure. Interest rate differentials that arise under swap contracts are recognized in interest expense over the life of the contracts. If interest rates rise, the resulting cost of funds is expected to be lower than that which would have been available if debt with matching characteristics was issued directly. Conversely, if interest rates fall, the resulting costs would be expected to be higher. We may also employ forwards or purchased options to hedge qualifying anticipated transactions. Gains and losses are deferred and recognized in net income in the same period that the underlying transaction occurs, expires or is otherwise terminated. See note 8 of the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Because the information presented above includes only those exposures that existed as of June 30, 2012, it does not consider changes, exposures or positions which could arise after that date. The information presented herein has limited predictive value. As a result, the ultimate realized gain or loss or expense with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during the period, our hedging strategies at the time and interest rates.

ITEM 4.

CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.

We are committed to providing accurate and timely disclosure in satisfaction of our SEC reporting obligations. In 2002, we established a Disclosure Committee to formalize our disclosure controls and procedures. Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2012, and have concluded as follows:

•

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the information that we are required to disclose in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

•

Our disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information that we are required to disclose in our Exchange Act reports is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There was no change in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

In the normal course of business, we have become and might in the future become involved in legal actions relating to the ownership and operation of our properties and the properties that we manage for third parties. In management’s opinion, the resolution of any such pending legal actions are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS.

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risks that could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations, which are discussed under the caption “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2011, as well as the following:

Our recently announced management changes could impact our business and our prospects.

On June 7, 2012, Joseph F. Coradino became our Chief Executive Officer, replacing Ronald Rubin, who retired from that position, but remains our Executive Chairman. Our future success depends upon the ability of our corporate management team to implement this management transition and to continue to execute our business strategies. If we fail to manage the transition successfully, it would have a negative impact on our business and our prospects.

ITEM 5.

OTHER INFORMATION.

We lease our principal executive offices from Bellevue Associates (the “Landlord”), an entity in which certain of our officers/trustees have an interest. Under the original lease, our annual base rent was $1.5 million. Our total rent expense in 2011 was $1.8 million. The original office lease had a 10 year term that commenced on November 1, 2004. We had the option to renew the original office lease for up to two additional five year periods at the then-current fair market rate calculated in accordance with the terms of the office lease. Ronald Rubin and George F. Rubin, collectively with members of their immediate families and affiliated entities, own approximately a 50% interest in the Landlord.

Under the original office lease, we also had the right on one occasion at any time during the seventh lease year to terminate the lease upon the satisfaction of certain conditions. In April 2012, we entered into an amendment to our office lease with the Landlord, effective June 1, 2012. The amendment was negotiated in light of the aforementioned termination right. Under this amendment, we are consolidating from approximately 68,100 square feet into approximately 58,000 square feet. The term has been extended for five years to October 31, 2019, and we have the option to renew the amended office lease for up to two additional periods for an aggregate of 10 years, at the then-current market base rental rate calculated in accordance with the terms of the amended office lease. The first extension period shall be no less than three and no more than seven years, at our discretion, and the second shall be for 10 years less the number of years of the first extension. The base rent will be approximately $1.2 million per year, increasing incrementally to approximately $1.4 million in 2019.

In accordance with PREIT’s related party transactions policy, PREIT’s Special Committee considered and approved the terms of the amended lease.
