NOTE B - REAL ESTATE ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSALS

     During the first six months of 1999, the Trust acquired a ninety percent
interest in two buildings in Hollywood, California. The Trust invested $15.3
million in cash in the $16.9 million Galaxy Building and $7.5 million in cash in
the $8.3 million building adjacent to the Galaxy Building. The buildings have
120,000 and 64,0000 leasable square feet, respectively.

     In addition, the Trust invested $5.5 million in mortgage notes receivable
with an average weighted interest rate of 10% during the first six months of
1999.

     During the second quarter of 1999, the Trust recorded a $7.1 million
charge, representing the estimated loss on a potential sale of certain assets,
principally Northeast Plaza in Atlanta, Georgia, thereby valuing the assets at
their estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. The Trust is in sale
negotiations on this

                                       9
<PAGE>

448,000 square foot shopping center which is currently 66% occupied.

NOTE C - NOTES PAYABLE

     At June 30, 1999 there was $180.0 million borrowed under the Trust's
syndicated credit facility, which also represents the maximum drawn during the
first two quarters. The weighted average interest rate on borrowings for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 was 5.7%. The facility requires fees and has various
covenants including the maintenance of a minimum shareholders' equity and a
maximum ratio of debt to net worth.

NOTE D - REORGANIZATION EXPENSES

     At September 30, 1998 the Trust recorded a $4.7 million charge related to a
comprehensive restructuring program, the implementation of which was begun
during the fourth quarter of 1998. As of June 30, 1999 cash payments of $2.9
million had been made against the reserve with most of the remaining cash
expected to be paid during the remainder of 1999.

NOTE E - SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

     On February 22, 1999, options for 705,000 shares at a price of $21 1/16 per
share, fair value at the date of award, were awarded to officers and certain
employees. The options vest evenly over three years.

NOTE F - INTEREST EXPENSE

     The Trust incurred interest expense totaling $33.3 million during the first
six months of 1999 and $28.9 million during the first six months of 1998, of
which $2.8 million and $2.8 million, respectively, was capitalized in connection
with development projects. Interest paid was $33.2 million in the first six
months of 1999 and $27.3 million in the first six months of 1998.

NOTE G - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

     The Trust is involved in various lawsuits and environmental matters arising
in the normal course of business. Management believes that such matters will not
have a material effect on the financial condition or results of operations of
the Trust.

     Pursuant to the provisions of the Congressional Plaza partnership
agreement, in the event of the exercise of put options by another partner, the
Trust would be required to purchase a 37.5% interest of Congressional Plaza at
its then fair market value. On January 1, 1999 the Loehmann's Plaza Limited
Partnership Agreement was amended to extend the partnership to December 31, 2000
and to delete the put and call options.

     Under the terms of certain other partnerships, if certain leasing and
revenue levels are obtained for the properties owned by the

                                       10
<PAGE>

partnerships, the limited partners may require the Trust to purchase their
partnership interests at a formula price based upon net operating income. The
purchase price may be paid in cash or common stock of the Trust at the election
of the limited partners. In certain of these partnerships, if the limited
partners do not redeem their interest, the Trust may choose to purchase the
limited partnership interest upon the same terms. Under the terms of other
partnerships, the partners may exchange their 879,541 operating units into cash
or the same number of common shares of the Trust, at the option of the Trust.

     The Trust has reviewed the software and hardware systems used internally to
operate its business, in order to assess their ability to handle the "Year 2000
Issue" which generally refers to the inability of systems hardware and software
to correctly identify two-digit references to specific calendar years, beginning
with 2000. The Year 2000 Issue can affect the Trust directly by impairing its
internal data-based operations or processing and indirectly by impairing its
suppliers' and tenants' data-based operations or processing. The Trust has
identified and evaluated the Year 2000 compliance of its internal systems. The
Trust believes that the remediation of all accounting systems and other systems
of high priority is complete; however, testing is still ongoing. In addition,
the Trust has requested information concerning and reviewed the equipment at its
properties, including the use of embedded chips in machinery. Based on the
review and since the Trust primarily owns shopping centers and street retail
buildings with limited use of technology, the Trust believes it is year 2000
compliant.

     The Trust has requested information from its major banks, tenants, and
suppliers to determine their Year 2000 compliance in order to assess the
possibility of any major year 2000 risk to the Trust related to these parties'
Year 2000 noncompliance. Based on their responses, the Trust does not believe
there is any material risk to the Trust in these areas.

     The Trust is developing, with the aid of an outside consultant, a
contingency plan for its critical internal systems, which is to be completed by
the end of the third quarter. Costs spent to date and projections of future
costs are not expected to exceed $75,000.

NOTE I - SEGMENT INFORMATION

     During the fourth quarter of 1998 the Trust completed a comprehensive
restructuring program, which, among other things, divided its portfolio of
properties into three geographic operating regions: Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and
West.  In 1999 there was a minor reorganization of the regions which moved the
Illinois and Michigan properties to the Northeast region from the Western
region.

                        FEDERAL REALTY INVESTMENT TRUST
                                   FORM 10-Q

                                 June 30, 1999

                    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                 FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated
Financial Statements and Notes thereto. Certain statements made in this report
contain forward-looking statements, within the meaning of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements involve known and
unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause actual results,
performance or achievements of the Trust to be materially different from the
results of operations or plans expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements. Such factors include, among others, general economic and business
conditions which will affect credit-worthiness of tenants, financing
availability and cost, retailing trends and rental rates; risks of real estate
development and acquisitions; governmental and environmental regulations; and
competition with other real estate companies and technology. Portions of this
discussion include certain forward-looking statements about the Trust's and
management's intentions and expectations. Although these intentions and
expectations are based upon reasonable assumptions, many factors, such as
general economic conditions, local and national real estate conditions,
increases in interest rates and operating costs, may cause actual results to
differ materially from current expectations.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Federal Realty meets its liquidity requirements through net cash provided
by operating activities, along with traditional debt and equity funding
alternatives available to it. A significant portion of cash provided by
operating activities is distributed to common and preferred shareholders in the
form of dividends. Accordingly, capital outlays for property acquisitions, major
renovation and development projects and balloon debt repayments require debt or
equity funding.

     Net cash provided by operating activities was $55.5 million in the first
half of 1999 and $44.6 million in the first half of 1998 of which $38.0 million
and $36.8 million, respectively, was distributed to shareholders. Contributions
from newly acquired properties and from retenanted and redeveloped properties,
as more fully described below, were the primary sources of these increases.

     Net cash used in investing activities was $68.3 million during the first
half of 1999 and $61.0 million during the first half of 1998. The Trust
purchased real estate totaling $25.2 million in the first half of 1999 and $38.2
million in the first half of 1998,

                                       14
<PAGE>

requiring cash outlays of $22.7 million and $29.0 million, respectively. During
these two periods, the Trust expended an additional $40.2 million and $26.9
million, respectively, in capital improvements to its properties. The Trust
invested $5.3 million during the first half of 1999 and $5.1 million during the
first half of 1998 in mortgage notes receivable with an average weighted
interest rate of 10%.

     During the first six months of 1999, the Trust acquired a ninety percent
interest in two buildings in Hollywood, California. The Trust invested $15.3
million in cash in the $16.9 million Galaxy Building and $7.5 million in cash in
the $8.3 million building adjacent to the Galaxy Building. The buildings have
120,000 and 64,000 leasable square feet, respectively.

     Approximately $19.7 million was invested during the first half of 1999 in
predevelopment and development projects in Bethesda, Maryland; Los Gatos,
California; San Antonio, Texas; and Arlington, Virginia. Furthermore, the Trust
is devoting considerable time and internal resources to identify additional
development opportunities.

     Net cash provided by financing activities, before dividend payments, was
$45.4 million in the first half of 1999 and $49.8 million in the first half of
1998. The Trust utilized its unsecured line of credit to fund acquisitions and
capital expenditures in 1999. At June 30, 1999 there was $180.0 million borrowed
under this syndicated credit facility, which also represents the maximum drawn
during the first six months of the year. The weighted average interest rate on
borrowings for the six months ended June 30, 1999 was 5.7%. The facility
requires fees and has various covenants including the maintenance of a minimum
shareholders' equity and a maximum ratio of debt to net worth.

     Capital requirements for the remainder of 1999 will depend on acquisition
opportunities, new development efforts, improvements and redevelopments on
existing properties, and tenant work and allowances. Initial funding for such
projects is expected to be provided under the line of credit facility or through
possible joint venture relationships.

     The Trust will need additional capital in order to fund acquisitions,
expansions, developments and upcoming debt maturities, particularly its $100
million of 8.875% Notes due January 15, 2000. Sources of this funding may be
additional debt, additional equity, proceeds from the sale of properties,
joint venture relationships, and the issuance of operating partnership units.
The timing and choice of capital sources will depend on the cost and
availability of that capital, among other things. The Trust believes, based on
past experience, that access to the capital needed to execute its business
plan will be available to it.


CONTINGENCIES

     The Trust is involved in various lawsuits and environmental

                                       15

matters arising in the normal course of business. Management believes that such
matters will not have a material effect on the financial condition or results of
operations of the Trust.

     Pursuant to the provisions of the Congressional Plaza partnership
agreement, in the event of the exercise of put options by another partner, the
Trust would be required to purchase a 37.5% interest of Congressional Plaza at
its then fair market value. On January 1, 1999 the Loehmann's Plaza Limited
Partnership Agreement was amended to extend the partnership to December 31, 2000
and to delete the put and call options.

     Under the terms of certain other partnerships, if certain leasing and
revenue levels are obtained for the properties owned by the partnerships, the
limited partners may require the Trust to purchase their partnership interests
at a formula price based upon net operating income. The purchase price may be
paid in cash or common stock of the Trust at the election of the limited
partners. In certain of these partnerships, if the limited partners do not
redeem their interest, the Trust may choose to purchase the limited partnership
interests upon the same terms. Under the terms of other partnerships, the
partners may exchange their 879,541 operating units into cash or the same number
of common shares of the Trust, at the option of the Trust.

     The Trust has reviewed the software and hardware systems used internally to
operate its business, in order to assess their ability to handle the "Year 2000
Issue" which generally refers to the inability of systems hardware and software
to correctly identify two-digit references to specific calendar years, beginning
with 2000. The Year 2000 Issue can affect the Trust directly by impairing its
internal data-based operations or processing and indirectly by impairing its
suppliers' and tenants' data-based operations or processing. The Trust has
identified and evaluated the Year 2000 compliance of its internal systems. The
Trust believes that the remediation of all accounting systems and other systems
of high priority is complete; however, testing is still ongoing. In addition,
the Trust has requested information concerning and reviewed the equipment at its
properties, including the use of embedded chips in machinery. Based on the
review and since the Trust primarily owns shopping centers and street retail
buildings with limited use of technology, the Trust believes it is year 2000
compliant.

     The Trust has requested information from its major banks, tenants, and
suppliers to determine their Year 2000 compliance in order to assess the
possibility of any major year 2000 risk to the Trust related to these parties'
Year 2000 noncompliance. Based on their responses, the Trust does not believe
there is any material risk to the Trust in these areas.

     The Trust is developing, with the aid of an outside consultant, a
contingency plan for its critical internal systems, which is to be completed by
the end of the third quarter. Costs spent to date and projections of future
costs are not expected to exceed $75,000.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

     Net income and funds from operations have been affected by the Trust's
recent acquisition, redevelopment and financing activities. The Trust has
historically reported its funds from operations in addition to its net income
and net cash provided by operating activities. Funds from operations is a
supplemental measure of real estate companies' operating performance. The
National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") defines funds
from operations as follows: income available for common shareholders before
depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and before extraordinary
items and significant non-recurring events less gains on sale of real estate.
Funds from operations does not replace net income as a measure of performance or
net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity. Rather,
funds from operations has been adopted by real estate investment trusts to
provide a consistent measure of operating performance in the industry.

     The reconciliation of net income to funds from operations is as follows:

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 and 1998

Consolidated Results
- --------------------

     Rental income, which consists of minimum rent, percentage rent and cost
recoveries, increased 12% from $106.6 million in the first half of 1998 to
$119.1 million in the first half of 1999. If properties acquired in 1999 and
1998 are excluded, rental income increased 5%, due primarily to the favorable
impact of redeveloped and retenanted centers.

     Other property income includes items such as utility reimbursements,
telephone income, merchant association dues, late fees and temporary tenant
income. Other property income decreased 4.2% from $5.0 million in the first six
months of 1998 to $4.8 million in the first six months of 1999. Increases in
temporary tenant income, an area identified by the Trust as one with additional
growth

                                       17

opportunity, were outweighed by decreases in telephone income and decreases in
marketing dues, as the Trust discontinued marketing funds at certain shopping
centers in 1999.

     Rental expenses increased 12% from $23.3 million in the first half of 1998
to $26.1 million in the first half of 1999. If rental expenses are adjusted for
properties acquired in 1999 and 1998, rental expenses increased 6% from $23.2
million in 1998 to $24.6 million in 1999. There was a decrease in marketing
expenses consistent with the decrease in marketing dues, but this decrease was
outweighed by increases in snow removal costs and the write off of tenant work
and lease costs associated with several stores operated by a bankrupt tenant.

     Real estate taxes increased 6% from $11.2 million in the first half of 1998
to $11.9 million in the first half of 1999. If real estate taxes are adjusted
for properties acquired in 1999 and 1998, real estate taxes remained constant.
Increased taxes on recently redeveloped properties were offset by a refund
resulting from the reassessment of a 1997 acquisition.

     Depreciation and amortization expenses increased 13% from $22.0 million in
the first half of 1998 to $24.9 million in the first half of 1999 reflecting the
impact of property acquisitions and recent tenant work and property
improvements.

     During the first six months 1999 the Trust incurred interest expense of
$33.3 million, of which $2.8 million was capitalized, as compared to 1998's
$28.9 million of which $2.8 million was capitalized. The increase in interest
expense reflects the additional debt issued to fund the Trust's acquisition and
capital improvement programs. The ratio of earnings to combined fixed charges
and preferred dividends was 1.54x and 1.54x for the first half of 1999 and 1998,
respectively. The ratio of earnings to fixed charges was 1.7x and 1.7x during
the first half of 1999 and 1998, respectively. The ratio of funds from
operations to combined fixed charges and preferred dividends was 2.1x for the
first half of 1999 and 2.1x for the first half of 1998.

     Administrative expenses decreased from $5.8 million in the first half of
1998 to $5.4 million in the first half of 1999,due to cost reductions resulting
from the 1998 comprehensive restructuring of the Trust which were larger than
the impact of the Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue 97-11, which
required the expensing of internal costs of acquisition activities beginning in
late March 1998. Prior to this date, such costs were capitalized as a component
of the basis of the acquired asset.

     During the second quarter of 1999, the Trust recorded a $7.1 million
charge, representing the estimated loss on a potential sale of certain assets,
principally Northeast Plaza in Atlanta, Georgia, thereby valuing the assets at
their estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. The Trust is in active
negotiations for the sale of Northeast Plaza which, if successful, would have
the effect of

                                       18
<PAGE>

increasing portfolio wide occupancy by 100 basis points to nearly 96%.

     As a result of the foregoing items, net income before estimated loss on
real estate to be sold increased from $24.7 million in the first half of 1998 to
$27.4 million in the first half of 1999, while net income decreased from $24.7
million during the first half of 1998 to $20.4 million during the first half of
1999 and net income available for common shareholders decreased from $20.7
million to $16.4 million.

     The Trust expects growth in net income before loss on sale of real estate
and funds from operations during the remainder of 1999 both from contributions
of its recent acquisitions and from contributions of its core portfolio,
primarily the properties undergoing redevelopment and retenanting. However,
growth of net income from the core portfolio is, in part, dependent on
controlling expenses, some of which are beyond the complete control of the
Trust, such as snow removal and trends in the retailing environment. The Trust
currently expects that demand for its retail space should remain at levels
similar to those in 1998. A weakening of the retail environment could, however,
adversely impact the Trust by increasing vacancies and decreasing rents. In past
weak retail and real estate environments, the Trust has been able to replace
weak and bankrupt tenants with stronger tenants; management believes that due to
the quality of the Trust's properties there will continue to be demand for its
space. Growth in net income is also dependent on interest rates and controlling
administrative costs. If interest rates increase, net income and funds from
operations, as well as the ultimate cost of the Trust's development projects
will be negatively impacted due to the variable interest rates on the Trust's
revolving credit facilities. The Trust is aggressively managing its
administrative expenses through its reorganization efforts.

Segment Results
- ---------------

     During the fourth quarter of 1998 the Trust completed a comprehensive
restructuring program, which, among other things, divided its portfolio of
properties into three geographic operating regions: Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and
West. In 1999 there was a minor reorganization of the regions which moved the
Illinois and Michigan properties to the Northeast region from the Western
region.

Historical operating results for the three regions are as follows (in
thousands):

10% from $45.4 million in 1998 to $49.9 million in 1999. Excluding properties
acquired since January 1, 1998, rental income increased 6.5%, primarily due to
increases at recently redeveloped and retenanted shopping centers, such as
Brick, Finley, Gratiot, Feasterville, and Wynnewood.

     Net operating income increased 10% from $32.4 million in 1998 to $35.8

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 and 1998

Consolidated Results
- --------------------

     Rental income, which consists of minimum rent, percentage rent and cost
recoveries, increased 10% from $54.1 million in the second quarter of 1998 to
$59.7 million in the second quarter of 1999. If properties acquired in 1999 and
1998 are excluded, rental income increased 4%, due primarily to the favorable
impact of redeveloped and retenanted centers.

     Other property income includes items such as utility reimbursements,
telephone income, merchant association dues, late fees and temporary tenant
income. Other property income decreased 13% from $2.9 million in the second
quarter of 1998 to $2.6 million in the second quarter of 1999. Increases in
temporary tenant income, an area identified by the Trust as one with additional
growth opportunity, were outweighed by decreases in telephone income, lease
termination fees and decreases in marketing dues, as the Trust discontinued
marketing funds at certain shopping centers in 1999.

     Rental expenses increased 10% from $11.3 million in the second quarter of
1998 to $12.5 million in the second quarter of 1999. If rental expenses are
adjusted for properties acquired in 1999 and 1998, rental expenses increased
2.5% from $11.3 million in 1998 to $11.6 million in 1999. There was a decrease
in marketing expenses consistent with the decrease in marketing dues, but this
decrease was outweighed by the write off of tenant work and lease costs
associated with eleven stores operated by a bankrupt tenant.

     Real estate taxes increased 2% from $5.7 million in the second quarter of
1998 to $5.9 million in the second quarter of 1999. If real estate taxes are
adjusted for properties acquired in 1999 and 1998, real estate taxes decreased.
Increased taxes on recently redeveloped properties were offset by a refund
resulting from the reassessment of a 1997 acquisition.

     Depreciation and amortization expenses increased 13% from $11.2 million in
the second quarter of 1998 to $12.7 million in the second quarter of 1999
reflecting the impact of property acquisitions and recent tenant work and
property improvements.

     During the second quarter of 1999 the Trust incurred interest expense of
$17.0 million, of which $1.6 million was capitalized, as compared to 1998's
$14.9 million of which $1.5 million was capitalized. The increase in interest
expense reflects the additional debt issued to fund the Trust's aquisition and
capital improvement programs.
