Item 1. Business
--------
Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust, a Pennsylvania business
trust (the "Company," the "Registrant" or the "Trust"), conducts substantially
all of its operations through PREIT Associates, L.P., a Delaware limited
partnership (the "Operating Partnership"). As used herein, unless the context
indicates otherwise, the term "Company" "Registrant" or "Trust" includes
Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust, the Operating Partnership and
their subsidiaries and affiliates, including PREIT-RUBIN, Inc. (formerly The
Rubin Organization, Inc.), a real estate management company in which the
Company owns 95%of the economic interests in the form of non-voting common
shares (together with its predecessors, the "Management Company"). The
Management Company, prior to September 30, 1997, is sometimes referred to
herein as "TRO."
The Company
The Company, which is organized as a business trust under
Pennsylvania law, is a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed
real estate investment trust ("REIT") founded in 1960 which acquires,
rehabilitates, develops and operates shopping centers and multifamily
properties. On September 30, 1997, the Company acquired The Rubin
Organization, Inc., a retail property management firm, and certain related
real estate interests.
The Company owns interests in 18 shopping centers (the "Existing
Retail Properties") containing an aggregate of approximately 6.4 million
square feet, 19 multifamily properties (the "Multifamily Properties")
containing 7,236 units, six industrial properties (the "Industrial
Properties") with an aggregate of approximately 725,000 square feet and three
parcels of undeveloped land (the "Undeveloped Land"). In addition, the Company
has entered into agreements to acquire interests in two shopping centers
containing an aggregate of approximately 824,000 square feet (the "Acquisition
Properties"). The Company also owns or has a right to acquire interests in
five shopping centers under development (the "Development Properties") which
are expected to contain an aggregate of approximately 2.2 million square feet
upon completion. The Company or a joint venture partner owns or has under
contract the land for all of the Development Properties, two of which are
currently under construction. The Company currently anticipates that the
remaining three Development Properties will be constructed by the year 2000.
There is no assurance that all five Development Properties will be
successfully developed.
The Company also provides management, leasing and development
services to 51 retail properties containing approximately 18.5 million square
feet and 11 office buildings containing approximately 4.0 million square feet
for third-party property owners.
Recent Developments
Acquisition of The Rubin Organization, Inc. On September 30, 1997,
the Company acquired The Rubin Organization, Inc. (renamed "PREIT-RUBIN,
Inc.") and interests in certain related retail properties (the "TRO
Transaction") as part of the Company's previously announced strategy to
acquire management, leasing and development expertise for shopping center
properties. Founded in 1946, the predecessor of The Rubin Organization was a
Philadelphia based owner,
<PAGE>
operator and developer of commercial real estate properties. As part of the TRO
Transaction, the Company also acquired interests in four of the Existing Retail
Properties containing an aggregate of approximately 2.1 million square feet, and
obtained the right to acquire the two Acquisition Properties and interest in
four of the Development Properties. Of the four Existing Retail Properties
acquired, two were purchased for a combination of cash, assumption of debt and
units of limited partner interests in the Operating Partnership ("OP Units"). In
October 1997, the Company entered into a contract to acquire the fifth
Development Property.
The following table sets forth certain information regarding the four
Existing Retail Properties acquired in the TRO Transaction:

Formation of Operating Partnership. The Company recently formed the
Operating Partnership to hold substantially all of its assets. As the sole
general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Company has the exclusive
power to manage and conduct the business of the Operating Partnership, subject
to certain limited exceptions. The Company currently owns 93.1% of the
Operating Partnership. It is anticipated that all future acquisitions of
interests in real estate will be owned, directly or indirectly, by the
Operating Partnership.

Expansion of Credit Facilities. On September 30, 1997, the Company
replaced its $75 million credit facility with a $150 million credit facility
(the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility bears interest, at the Company's
election, at (i) the higher of the CoreStates' prime rate, or the Federal
Funds lending rate, plus 0.5%, in each case as in effect from time to time, or
(ii) the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus margins ranging from
1.10% to 1.70%, depending on the ratio of the Company's consolidated
liabilities to gross asset value, each as determined pursuant to the terms of
the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility currently bears interest at 1.70%
over LIBOR. The Company intends to use the Credit Facility to fund further
growth.
New York Stock Exchange Listing. On November 14, 1997, the Shares
commenced trading on the NYSE.
Change in Fiscal Year. The Company has announced that it will change
its fiscal year end to December 31, commencing with the year ending December
31, 1998, and, in connection therewith, change its distribution payment cycle
from February/May/August/November to March/June/September/December.
The TRO Transaction
On September 30, 1997, the Registrant and TRO completed the TRO
Transaction pursuant to which:
o The Registrant capitalized the Operating
Partnership by transferring to it substantially all
of its assets, or the economic benefit thereof,
subject to the liabilities of the Registrant, in
exchange for the issuance to the Registrant and
PREIT Property Trust, a wholly owned subsidiary of
the Registrant and a limited partner of the
Operating Partnership, general partner interests in
the Operating Partnership and Class A OP Units
("Class A OP Units") equal in the aggregate to the
number of issued and outstanding Shares as of such
date;
o the Operating Partnership acquired all of the
non-voting common shares, constituting 95% of the
economic interests of TRO, in exchange for 200,000
Class A OP Units and the obligation to issue up to
800,000 additional Class A OP Units over the next
five years, such exact number to be determined by
according to a formula based upon the per Share
adjusted funds from operation of the Company (see
"- Acquisition of TRO and Related Property
Interests");
o the Operating Partnership acquired the interests of
certain affiliates of TRO ("TRO Affiliates") in
four of the Existing Retail Properties;
o the Operating Partnership acquired the interests of
certain TRO Affiliates in the Acquisition Properties;
o the Operating Partnership acquired the development
rights of certain TRO Affiliates, subject to
related obligations, in four of the Development
Properties;
o the Operating Partnership obtained rights of first
refusal with respect to the interests of certain
TRO Affiliates in three properties;
-4-
<PAGE>
o Ronald Rubin was elected chief executive officer
and a trustee of the Company, Edward Glickman was
elected chief financial officer and executive vice
president of the Company, and George F. Rubin
continued in his capacity as President of the
Management Company and was elected trustee of the
Company;
o Ronald Rubin, George F. Rubin and Rosemarie B. Greco
were elected as trustees of the Company to fill
vacancies created by the resignations as trustees of
Robert Freedman, Jack Farber and Robert G. Rogers.
Acquisition of TRO and Related Property Interests. As part of the TRO
Transaction, the Company entered into a contribution agreement (the "TRO
Contribution Agreement") pursuant to which it acquired all of the non-voting
shares of TRO for 200,000 Class A OP Units and the obligation to issue up to
800,000 additional Class A OP Units (the "Contingent TRO OP Units") over the
following five-year period, depending on the Company's per share "adjusted funds
from operations" ("Adjusted FFO") during such period. "Adjusted FFO" is defined
as the Company's consolidated net income for any period, plus, to the extent
deducted in computing such net income: (i) depreciation attributable to real
property; (ii) certain amortization expenses; (iii) the expenses of the TRO
Transaction; (iv) losses on the sale of real estate; (v) material write-downs on
real estate; (vi) material prepayment fees; and (vii) rents currently due in
excess of rents reported, minus: (i) rental revenue reported in excess of
amounts currently due; (ii) lease termination fees; and (iii) gains on the sale
of real estate. For the twelve-month periods ending August 31, 1996 and August
31, 1997, the Company's Adjusted FFO per share without giving effect to the TRO
Transaction would have been $2.16 and $2.27, respectively.
The TRO Contribution Agreement establishes "hurdles" and "targets"
during specified "earn-out periods" to determine whether, and to what extent,
the Contingent TRO OP Units will be issued.

In general, (i) if the hurdle for any earn-out period is not met, no
Contingent TRO OP Units will be issued in respect of such period, (ii) if the
target for any earn-out period is met, the maximum number of Contingent TRO OP
Units for such period will be issued, and (iii) if Adjusted FFO for any
earn-out period is between the hurdle and the target for such period, the
Operating Partnership would issue the base Contingent TRO OP Units for such
period plus a pro rata portion of the number of Contingent TRO OP Units by
which the maximum Contingent TRO OP Units exceeded the base Contingent TRO OP
Units for such period equal to the amount by which the per share Adjusted FFO
exceeded the hurdle but was less than the target. For example, if the per
share Adjusted FFO for 1998 were $2.53 (that is, one-half of the difference
between the target and the hurdle), the Operating Partnership would issue
75,000 Contingent TRO OP Units (20,000 + (.5 (130,000-20,000))).
-5-
<PAGE>
The foregoing is subject to the right to carry back to prior earn-out
periods amounts in excess of the target in the current period, thereby earning
additional Contingent TRO OP Units (but never more than the maximum amount)
and to carry forward into the next, but only the next, earn-out period amounts
of per share Adjusted FFO which exceed the target in any such period,
provided, in all cases, no amounts in excess of the target in any period may
be applied to result in the issuance of additional Contingent TRO OP Units in
any other period until first applied to eliminate all shortfalls from targets
in all prior periods.
For provisions of the TRO Transaction relating to the pricing of the
Acquisition Properties, see "The Acquisition Properties, below". For provisions
of the TRO Transaction relating to the pricing of the four Development
Properties acquired in the TRO Transactions, see "The Development Properties,
below."
The Goldenberg Letter Agreement. On September 30, 1997, as part of
the TRO Transaction, the Company took by assignment from TRO and certain TRO
Affiliates all of their rights, subject to all of their obligations, under a
letter agreement with The Goldenberg Group (the "Goldenberg Letter
Agreement"). The Goldenberg Letter Agreement contemplates the development of
six power centers, three by The Goldenberg Group and three by the Company. The
Goldenberg Letter Agreement provides that the entity developing the center
will have the right to manage the center but that each center will be 50%
owned by The Goldenberg Group and 50% owned by the Company. The Company is
obligated under the Goldenberg Letter Agreement to provide a $5 million
revolving fund to carry pre-development expenses on The Goldenberg Group's
three projects to the extent those expenses exceed construction loan financing
proceeds and to fund all such expenses on the Company projects directly.
The Court at Oxford Valley, an Existing Retail Property, was developed
by the Goldenberg Group under the Goldenberg Letter Agreement and Hillview
Shopping Center, a Development Property, was developed by the Management Company
under the Goldenberg Letter Agreement. The Goldenberg Group's remaining two
Development Property projects under the Goldenberg Letter Agreement are the Blue
Route/Metroplex Center, Plymouth Meeting, Pennsylvania, and Red Rose Commons,
Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The Company has not yet proposed its second and third
projects under the Goldenberg Letter Agreement. In the event that the Company
were to fail to offer The Goldenberg Group two proposed power center projects
meeting specified criteria (one to be selected at The Goldenberg Group's sole
election) within 18 months of the closing of a construction loan on each of Red
Rose Commons (currently anticipated to occur prior to the end of 1997) and Blue
Route/Metroplex (currently anticipated to occur in the next 24 months), then the
interest of the Company in the "unmatched" project would be subject to reduction
by The Goldenberg Group, without the payment of any consideration, from 50% to
25%.
Although the Company has performed preliminary work for the requisite
"matches" for Blue Route/Metroplex and Red Rose Commons, there can be no
assurance that either project will be successfully matched and, therefore,
that the Company's interest in these projects will not be reduced to 25%.
However, since the Company will only pay the TRO Affiliates in respect of
one-half of the "developer profit" on the share of the profit actually
acquired, a reduction in the interest in these projects should not result in
any unrecaptured cost to the Company.
Right of First Refusal Properties. The Company obtained rights of
first refusal with respect to the interests of certain TRO Affiliates in the
three retail properties listed below.

The Existing Retail Properties
The Company has interests in 18 retail properties containing an
aggregate of approximately 6.4 million square feet of gross leasable area
("GLA"). Two of the Company's wholly-owned properties are currently managed by
the Management Company and the remaining four will be under the management of
the Management Company by March 1998. The Company's 12 joint venture retail
properties are managed by the Company's joint venture partners, or an entity
designated by the Company and the partner, and in most such instances a change
in the management of the property requires the concurrence of both partners.
Eight of the 18 Existing Retail Properties (containing an aggregate of
approximately 3.7 million square feet of GLA) are located in Pennsylvania and
five (containing an aggregate of approximately 1.0 million square feet of GLA)
are located in Florida.

The Acquisition Properties
The Acquisition Properties, Hillview Shopping Center (in which the
Company will acquire a 50% interest) and Northeast Tower Center (in which the
Company will acquire a 100% interest), are "power centers" to be acquired from
TRO Affiliates as part of the TRO Transaction. The Company's actual aggregate
purchase price (assumed debt and equity) for each of Hillview and Northeast
Tower will be based on a formula which capitalizes cash flow from leased and
occupied space, and space leased but not yet occupied, to credit-worthy
tenants, values triple net leases with purchase arrangements at the present
value of payments in excess of related debt amortization, and values all other
space as mutually agreed or, failing agreement, pursuant to appraisals. The
equity portion of the purchase price will be payable, in each case, in Class A
OP Units valued at $23.40 per OP Unit which was the average of the closing
prices of the Shares on the twenty trading days prior to July 30, 1997, the
date on which the definitive documentation for the acquisition of the
Acquisition Properties was executed. Accordingly, the actual purchase will be
a function of lease-up activity, and other factors, prior to acquisition by
the Company.
The following table sets forth certain information regarding the
Acquisition Properties.

(1) Pep Boys owns a store at the center. The center will have approximately
12 other stores.
(2) The Company will initially acquire 89% of the interest in the partnership
and acquire the remaining 11% interest not earlier than three years from

(3) Subject to change.
The Development Properties
The Company has rights in five Development Properties, the rights to
four of which -- Red Rose; Blue Route, Metroplex; Christiana Phase Power
Center Phase I and Christiana Power Center, Phase II - - is the subject of a
contribution agreement entered into as part of the TRO Transaction.
As each of the four Development Properties in which the Company
acquired rights in as part of the TRO Transaction is completed and leased up,
it will be valued based on the following principles: (i) all space based and
occupied by credit-worthy tenants will be valued at ten times adjusted cash
flow (computed as specified in the agreement); and (ii) all space leased to a
credit-worthy tenant but unoccupied will be valued at ten times adjusted cash
flow calculated as though the space was built and occupied as set forth in the
budget in the property, and (iii) space not leased or occupied, whether built
or unbuilt, will be valued as mutually agreed on or, failing agreement, by
appraisal. Additional provisions exist for valuing triple net lease/purchase
arrangements. Although each project will be valued as completed and an
"account" established against which Class A OP Units will be deemed to be
credited, as well as deemed cash in an amount that would have been distributed
on such deemed Units and a 10% interest factor on such deemed cash, no
consideration will be paid until the earlier of (x) the completion of the last
property, and (y) the abandonment by the Company of any uncompleted projects,
and (z) September 30, 2002.
At that time, any uncompleted project will be valued and the
Operating Partnership will issue Class A OP Units equal in value to 50% of the
amount, if any, by which the value of the Operating Partnership's interest in
each project exceeded the aggregate cost of such project at the time of
completion. Negative amounts arising in connection with the completion or
abandonment of any project will be netted back against earlier completed
projects in order of completion. Class A OP Units issued in respect of the
foregoing valuations of the projects will be valued at the greater of (x)
average of the closing prices of the Shares for the twenty trading days prior
to the date of the completion valuation and (y) $19.00. If the average of the
closing prices of the Shares on the 20 trading days prior to each valuation is
less than $19.00, additional OP Units, of a new class but equal in value to
those Class A OP Units not issued because of the operation of the pricing
limitation, will be issued.

Company who oversee the day-to-day development, construction, leasing and
management of properties.
If the current managers of the multifamily properties that are not
currently managed by the Company are unable or unwilling to perform their
obligations or responsibilities, the Company would manage those properties
with its own staff.

Other Properties
Shortly following the organization of the Company, it acquired six
industrial properties. The Company has not acquired any property of this type
in over 20 years and the Company does not consider these properties to be
strategically held assets. These properties, in the aggregate, contributed
less than 3% of the Company's net rental income in the Company's fiscal year
ending August 31, 1997, and the Company is currently studying a program for
the orderly liquidation of these assets.

Competition, Regulation and Other Factors
The real estate business is highly competitive. The Trust competes
for tenants with other property owners. All of the Trust's shopping center and
apartment properties are subject to significant competition. The Trust also
competes for investment opportunities with investors and purchasers of real
estate of all types, many of which have greater financial resources, revenues
and geographical diversity than those of the Trust, including institutional,
private and foreign investors.
Increased building of new apartment communities and shopping centers
as well as renovation of older properties are a source of competition for the
Trust. In addition, single family housing becomes increasingly attractive when
lower interest rates make mortgages more affordable. These trends can affect
the number of prospective tenants for the Trust's apartment properties.
A substantial portion of the Trust's shopping center income consists
of rents received under long-term leases. Most of these shopping center leases
provide for payment by tenants of an annual minimum rent and additional rent
calculated generally as a percentage of gross sales in excess of a specified
amount ("percentage rent"). These shopping center leases often contain
provisions for contribution by tenants to the cost of maintaining common areas
and real estate tax escalation clauses under which the tenant bears its
proportionate share of increases in or total real estate taxes. While tenant
contributions historically have not covered all costs required to maintain
common areas, some leases provide for full recovery of these costs from
tenants. Upon renewal of a shopping center lease, the annual minimum rent of a
tenant is often increased to an amount which approaches or exceeds the sum of
the former annual minimum rent plus the most recent annual percentage rent
received from the tenant, and the level from which percentage rent is
calculated is correspondingly increased. In difficult economic times or in
strongly competitive environments, the shopping center owner may have to offer
concessions or negotiate leases in which the tenant pays a lower rental or
less than its pro rata share of certain operating costs or offer tenant
allowances.
-17-
<PAGE>
The success of the Trust depends, among other factors, upon general
economic conditions, population trends, real estate fluctuations, income tax
laws, governmental regulations, availability and costs of financing,
construction costs, increases or decreases in operating expenses, zoning laws
and the ability of the Trust to keep its properties leased at profitable
levels.
All but one of the 46 properties in which the Trust has an interest
are located in the eastern United States, with 19 of the properties located in
Pennsylvania and 14 in Florida. The ability of some existing tenants of the
Trust's properties to meet their lease obligations could be adversely affected
by economic conditions in the East and in Florida and Pennsylvania in
particular.
The effects of inflation upon the Trust's operations and investment
portfolio are varied. From the standpoint of revenues, inflation has the dual
effect of both increasing the tenant revenues upon which percentage rentals
are based and allowing increased fixed rentals to rise generally to reflect
higher construction costs on new properties and on renovation and
rehabilitation of older properties. This positive effect may be offset by
higher operating expenses.
Fundamental to the Trust is the generation of cash flow which, if
distributed to shareholders, is free from Federal income taxes to the Trust.
The determination to make distributions to shareholders, however, is not
solely based on cash flow because the Trust is required to distribute to its
shareholders annually at least 95% of its real estate investment trust taxable
income to remain qualified for the favorable tax treatment afforded by the
Internal Revenue Code. The Trust generally attempts to distribute 100% of such
income and capital gains from sales of real estate investments so as to avoid
any Federal income and excise tax liability for the Trust.
The United States government and a number of states and their
subdivisions have adopted laws and regulations relating to environmental
controls, some of which directly, and many of which indirectly, limit the
development of real estate and may adversely affect the operations of existing
properties. Such laws and regulations may operate to reduce the number and
attractiveness of investment opportunities available to the Trust and limit
the extent to which existing properties may be utilized. If hazardous
substances are discovered on or emanating from any of the Trust's properties,
the owner or operator of the property, including the Trust, may be held liable
for all costs and liabilities relating to such hazardous substances. Since
1987, the Trust has conducted a Phase I environmental study on each property
it seeks to acquire. These studies may, but do not necessarily, detect the
potential environmental hazards associated with a property. The Trust has no
way of determining the magnitude of any potential liability to which it may be
subject out of unknown environmental conditions or violations.
Environmental matters have arisen at certain properties in which the
Trust has an interest. The Trust retained environmental consultants in order
to investigate certain of these matters. At one property in which the Trust
has a 50% ownership interest, groundwater contamination exists which the Trust
alleges was caused by the former tenant. Estimates to remediate this property,
which are subject to the length of monitoring and the extent of remediation
required, range in total from $100,000 to $1,000,000. In addition, above
normal radon levels have been detected at two wholly-owned properties. The
estimated remaining cost to remediate these properties is approximately
$115,000, which costs were received as a credit from the sellers as part of
the initial acquisitions.
The Trust has recorded its share of these liabilities, totaling
$366,000, based upon the consultants' evaluation of these matters which, in
certain instances, are subject to applicable state approvals of the
remediation plans.

<PAGE>
There are asbestos-containing materials in many of the properties in
which the Trust has an interest, primarily in the form of floor tiles and
adhesives. The floor tiles and adhesives are generally in good condition.
Fire-proofing material containing asbestos is present at some of the
properties in limited concentrations or in limited areas.
Employees
The Registrant employs approximately 1,150 persons on a full-time
basis.
Item 2. Properties
See the tables under "Item 1. Business" at pages 1 to 19 for the
properties owned by the Trust, both wholly owned and those in which it has a
percentage interest, and reference is made thereto.
The Trust has leased 4,661 square feet of space for its principal
offices at 455 Pennsylvania Avenue, Fort Washington, Pennsylvania, with a
five-year term expiring December 31, 1998. The rent for the current year is
$14.50 per square foot.
The Management Company has leased 23,075 square feet (3rd floor) and
6,647 square feet (4th floor) of space for its principal offices at 200 S.
Broad Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, under two leases both expiring on
July 31, 1999. The rent for the current year on both of the spaces is $19.00
per square foot. In addition, the Management Company has leased 5,712 square
feet, 860 square feet and 922 square feet of space for its three regional
offices at 500 Madison Street, Chicago, Illinois, 668 North Orlando Ave.,
Maitland, Florida and 1534 Dunwoody Village Parkway, Atlanta, Georgia,
respectively. The Chicago lease expires on November 30, 1999, and the rent for
the current year is $25.00 per square foot. The Maitland lease expires on
April 30, 2000, and the rent for the current year is $13.75 per square foot.
The Atlanta lease expires on January 1, 1998, and the rent for the current
year is $12.20 per square foot. The Management Company is currently
negotiating a three year extension to the Maitland lease.
Titles to all of the Trust's real estate investments have been
searched and reported to the Trust by reputable title companies. The
exceptions listed in such title reports will not, in the opinion of the Trust,
materially interfere with the use of the respective properties for the
intended purposes.

Coral Springs, Florida. Berman Real Estate Management, Inc., a corporation
owned by the Bermans,
-19-
<PAGE>
currently manages the two apartment complexes.
On May 1994, the Bermans commenced an action against the Trust and
certain of its wholly-owned subsidiaries in the Montgomery County Court of
Common Pleas of Pennsylvania (the "Pennsylvania Litigation"). In the
Pennsylvania Litigation, the Bermans, seeking damages and a declaratory
judgment, asserted that the Trust interfered with a contract to develop the
parcel in Coral Springs, Florida and violated the partnership agreement
relating to Eagle's Nest Apartments in Coral Springs, Florida. The Bermans
later amended their complaint to add new parties and to allege that the
defendants had no right to terminate the leasing and management agreement at
Fox Run Apartments, had violated the Fox Run partnership agreement and that
the Bermans had no liability for certain partnership expenses.
In June 1994, two wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Trust commenced an
action in Delaware Chancery Court against the Bermans (the "Delaware
Litigation"). The action seeks, among other things, a declaratory judgment and
an injunction preventing the defendants from continuing to manage Fox Run and
damages resulting from the payment by plaintiffs of defendants' share of the
investigation and remediation of the environmental condition at Fox Run
Apartments.
The Trust intends to continue to vigorously resist plaintiffs' claims
in the Pennsylvania Litigation and to pursue the claims asserted in the
Delaware Litigation. Management does not believe that resolution of these
matters will have a material adverse effect on the Trust's financial condition
or results of operations.

As of November 12, 1997, there were approximately 1,400 shareholders of record
of the Shares.
The Registrant currently anticipates that cash distributions will
continue to be paid in the future (in March, June, September and December);
however, the payment of future distributions by the Registrant will be at the
discretion of the Board of Trustees and will depend on numerous factors,
including the Registrant's cash flow, its financial condition, capital
requirements, annual distribution requirements under the real estate
investment trust provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and such other
factors as the Board of Trustees deems relevant.
On September 30, 1997, the Registrant completed a series of related
transactions pursuant to which, among other things, the Operating Partnership
acquired (a) all of the non-voting common shares, constituting 95% of the
equity of TRO for 200,000 Class A Op Units, (b) the interests of
-21-
<PAGE>
certain affiliates of TRO in The Court at Oxford Valley, Langhorne, PA, for,
among other consideration, 233,248 Class A Op Units, and (c) Magnolia Mall
from an affiliate of Equity Property and Development Limited Partnership
("EPDLP") for, among other consideration, 213,038 Class B OP Units ("Class B
Op Units") issued to an affiliate of EPDLP.
The Class A and Class B OP Units issued in the above described
transactions are redeemable by the Operating Partnership at the election of
the limited partner holding such units, at such time, and for such
consideration, as set forth in the Operating Partnership Agreement. In
general, and subject to certain exceptions and limitations, beginning one year
following the respective issue dates, "qualifying parties" may give one or
more notices of redemption with respect to all or any part of the Class A OP
Units so received and then held by such party. Class B OP Units will be
redeemable at the option of the holder at any time after issuance.
If a notice of redemption is given, the Registrant has the right to
elect to acquire the OP Units tendered for redemption for its own account,
either in exchange for the issuance of a like number of Shares (subject to
adjustments for stock splits, recapitalizations, and like events) or a cash
payment equal to the average of the closing prices of the Shares on the ten
consecutive trading days immediately prior to receipt by the Registrant, in
its capacity as general partner of the Operating Partnership, of the notice of
redemption. If the Registrant declines to exercise such right, then on the
tenth day following tender for redemption the Operating Partnership will pay a
cash amount equal to the number of units so tendered multiplied by such
average closing price.
The OP Units were issued by the Operating Partnership pursuant to the
exemptions provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Act"), and Regulation D promulgated under the Act.

Item 7. 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 the notes thereto appearing elsewhere herein.
Results of Operations
Fiscal 1997 Compared With Fiscal 1996
Net income for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1997 before gains on
sales of interests in real estate, decreased 10% to $9.2 million from $10.2
million for the comparable period of 1996. In the 1997 period, net gains on
the sales of interests in real estate were $1.1 million as compared to $0.9
million in 1996. The net gains on sales of interests in real estate of $1.1
million in 1997, consisted of gains on the sale of the Trust's joint venture
interest in shopping centers in Lancaster, Beaver Falls and Waynesburg, PA of
$1.5 million, offset by a loss on the sale of a shopping Center in Margate, FL
of $0.4 million. The gains in 1996 totaling $0.9 million were derived from the
sale of land in Bucks County, PA and the sale of the Chateau Apartments in
Midland, TX. In 1997 net income was reduced by an accounting provision of $0.5
million for losses on land held for sale in the Trust's investment portfolio
and prepayment fees of $1.9 million paid in connection with refinancing of two
partnership properties, the Trust's share of which was $1.1 million.
Gross revenues from real estate for the fiscal year ended August 31,
1997, increased by 3% to $40.2 million from $39.0 million in the prior year.
The 1997 period included $0.4 million of revenues attributable to Forestville
Plaza in which the Trust acquired its partners' remaining 25% interest in the
prior fiscal year. The 1996 period included $0.5 million of revenues
attributable to Chateau Apartments which the Trust sold in June 1996. Revenues
from properties owned during both periods increased by $1.0 million primarily
as a result of increases in apartment revenues.
Operating expenses for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1997
increased 1% to $16.3 million from $16.1 million in the prior year. The 1997
period included $0.2 million of expenses attributable to Forestville Plaza in
which the Trust acquired its partners' remaining 25% interest in the prior
fiscal year. The 1996 period included $0.3 million of expenses attributable to
Chateau Apartments which the Trust sold. Operating expenses from properties
owned during both periods increased by $0.3 million.
Depreciation and amortization for the fiscal year ended August 31,
1997 increased by 7% to $6.3 million from $5.9 million in 1996, primarily as a
result of ongoing capital expenditures in apartments.
General and administrative expenses increased by 6% to $3.3 million
from $3.1 million in 1996, primarily as a result of costs associated with
litigation with a partner.
Mortgage and bank loan interest expense decreased by 8% to $9.1
million from $9.8 million in 1996, primarily as a result of decreased
borrowing against the Trust's credit facility.
In Fiscal 1996, a partnership in which the Trust has a 50% interest
signed an option to sell a parcel of land at a stipulated price, subject to
the buyer's obtaining certain zoning variance approvals. In Fiscal 1997, the
option expired. As a result, management revised its estimate of the property's
-23-
<PAGE>
selling price and recorded a $0.5 million provision for investment losses to
reduce the property held for sale to its estimated net realizable value.
Equity in income of partnerships and joint ventures decreased in the
fiscal year ended August 31, 1997, by 32% to $4.3 million from $6.3 million in
1996, primarily as a result of an increase in mortgage interest expense of
$2.9 million ($1.8 million of which was the Trust's proportional share). The
increase in partnership mortgage interest expense is attributable to
prepayment fees of $1.9 million ($1.1 million of which was the Trust's
proportional share) in connection with refinancings, as well as additional
interest expense associated with the refinancings of Regency Apartments,
Lehigh Valley Mall and Cambridge Hall Apartments in 1997. In addition, equity
in income from properties owned during both periods exclusive of the increase
in mortgage interest mentioned above increased by $0.5 million.
Fiscal 1996 Compared With Fiscal 1995
Net income for the fiscal year ended August 31, 1996, before gains on
sales of interests in real estate, decreased by 8% to $10.2 million from $11.1
million for the comparable period in 1995. In the 1996 period, the gains on
the sales of interests in real estate were $0.9 million as compared to the
1995 period which included a gain on sale of interest in real estate of $0.1
million. Net income was reduced by an increase in operating expenses of $0.3
million primarily due to winter conditions in the Mid-Atlantic region and the
receipt in the prior year of $0.2 million as a non-recurring termination fee
from a shopping center tenant.
Gross revenues from real estate for the fiscal year ended August 31,
1996 increased by 5% to $39.0 million from $37.0 million in 1995. The increase
is due primarily to an increase in revenues of $1.2 million from the Boca
Palms Apartments, which was acquired in November 1994 and $0.4 million from
Forestville Plaza which became wholly-owned during the year. Exclusive of Boca
Palms Apartments and Forestville Plaza, revenues from properties owned during
both periods increased 2%, to $33.7 in 1996 from $33.1 million in 1995.
Operating expenses in the fiscal year ended August 31, 1996 increased
by 8% to $16.1 million from $14.9 million in 1995. The increase is due
primarily to $0.4 million of increased expenses from the Boca Palms
Apartments, approximately $0.2 million of additional operating expenses as a
result of the harsh winter weather in the Mid-Atlantic region and $0.1 million
attributable to the increased ownership of Forestville Plaza.
Depreciation and amortization increased by 12% to $5.9 million from
$5.3 million in 1995, primarily as a result of the acquisition of Boca Palms,
the remaining interest in Forestville Plaza, and ongoing capital expenditures.
Interest expense increased by 10% to $9.8 million from $8.9 million in 1995 as
a result of increased borrowings to finance the Boca Palms acquisition and for
general corporate purposes.
For fiscal year ended August 31, 1996, $0.7 million was charged
against the allowance for investment losses, $0.3 million for carrying costs
for land held for sale, and $0.4 million of development expenses incurred at
Crest Plaza, Allentown, Pennsylvania for a potential expansion of the shopping
center, including a Caldor store. The lease with Caldor was canceled and the
cost was written off following the bankruptcy declaration by Caldor.
-24-
<PAGE>
Equity in income of partnerships and joint ventures decreased by 2%
to $6.3 million from $6.4 million in 1995, primarily as a result of a
non-recurring lease termination fee received from a shopping center tenant in
the amount of $0.2 million for fiscal year 1995. The Trust's share of
partnership and joint venture income in 1996 was also reduced by approximately
$0.1 million as compared to the prior year due to higher operating expenses
resulting from the harsh winter weather discussed earlier.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Trust expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements
generally through its available working capital and net cash provided by
operations. The Trust believes that its net cash provided by operations will
be sufficient to allow the Trust to make any distributions necessary to enable
the Trust to continue to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended. The Trust also believes that the foregoing sources of
liquidity will be sufficient to fund its short-term liquidity needs for the
foreseeable future, including capital expenditures, tenant improvements and
leasing commissions.
The Trust expects to meet certain long-term liquidity requirements
such as property acquisitions, scheduled debt maturities, renovations,
expansions and other non-recurring capital improvements through long-term
secured and unsecured indebtedness and the issuance of additional equity
securities. The Trust also expects to use funds available under the $150
million revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility") to fund
acquisitions, development activities and capital improvements on an interim
basis.
In addition to amounts due under the Credit Facility and under the
Term Loan (as hereinafter defined), during the next three years mortgage
loans. secured by properties owned by three partnerships in which the Trust
has an interest, mature by their terms. Balloon payments on these loans total
$17 million of which the Trust's proportionate share is $8.5 million.
The Credit Facility
Coincident with the closing of the TRO transaction, the Operating
Partnership entered into the Credit Facility with a group of banks led by
CoreStates Bank, N.A. The obligations of the Operating Partnership under the
Credit Facility have been guaranteed by the Trust.
The Credit Facility is for an initial term of two years and bears
interest, at the borrower's election, at (i) the higher of CoreStates' prime
rate or the Federal Funds lending rate plus .5%, in each case as in effect
from time to time or (ii) the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus
margins ranging from 1.1% to 1.7%, depending on the ratio of the Trust's
consolidated liabilities to gross asset value (the "Leverage Ratio") each as
determined pursuant to the terms of the Credit Facility.
The Credit Facility contains affirmative and negative covenants
customarily found in facilities of this type, as well as requirements that the
Trust maintain, on a consolidated basis: (i) a maximum Leverage Ratio of 65%;
(ii) a maximum ratio of Senior Liabilities (as defined in the Credit Facility)
to Unencumbered Asset Value (as defined in the Credit Facility) of 73%; (iii)
minimum tangible net worth of $115 million; (iv) a minimum ratio of annualized
consolidated property net operating income to total annual debt service of
1.40:1; and (v) a minimum ratio of annualized consolidated property
-25-
<PAGE>
net operating income to pro forma debt service of 1.30:1. As of September 30,
1997, the Trust's Leverage Ratio was approximately 58.6%. Until the Trust
reduces its leverage ratio below 50%, the lending banks will hold unrecorded
mortgages on eleven unencumbered properties which the Operating Partnership
owns, directly or indirectly, and would be entitled to record such mortgages
upon any event of default.
As of September 30, 1997, the Operating Partnership had drawn $95.0
million on the Credit Facility, which was used to repay amounts outstanding on
the Trust's prior line of credit and for cash payments in the TRO Transaction
referred to in note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Secured Term Loan
In addition to the Credit Facility, the Trust previously borrowed $35
million (the "Term Loan") from a bank group at a fixed rate of 8.62% until
March 1998 at which time the rate is to be reset at either a fixed or floating
rate at the option of the Trust. The loan is secured by three apartment
properties, had a balance of $33.9 million on August 31, 1997, and matures in
March 2000.
Interest Rate Protection
In order to reduce exposure to variable interest rates, the Trust has
purchased a three-year interest rate cap on $15 million of indebtedness
limiting the underlying 30-day LIBOR rate to 7.5% until March 1998. In June
1995, the Trust entered into a six-year interest rate swap agreement with
CoreStates Bank, N.A. on $20 million of indebtedness which fixes a rate of
6.12% per annum versus 30-day LIBOR until 2001. As a result of these
transactions, the Trust has as of August 31, 1997, fixed or hedged $35 million
of the outstanding balance on its Credit Facility.
Contingent Liabilities
The Trust along with certain of its joint venture partners has
guaranteed debt totaling $16.0 million. (See Notes 2 and 3 of the Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.)
Cash Flows
Net cash provided by operating activities increased by approximately
1% to $15.2 million for the year ended August 31, 1997 as compared to $15.1
million in the same period last year. Operating cash flow was higher primarily
as a result of the timing of collections of receivables.
Net cash provided by investing activities was $7.7 million for the
year ended August 31, 1997 as compared to $0.9 million in the same period last
year. For the year ended August 31, 1997, the Trust refinanced two properties
and received $15.4 million, sold interests in four shopping centers and
received proceeds of $2.1 million, invested $6.2 million in real estate and
incurred deposits to acquire real estate of $5.3 million. For the year ended
August 31, 1996, the Trust sold two properties and received net cash proceeds
of $5.2 million.
Net cash used in financing activities increased by 40% to $22.6
million for the year ended August 31, 1997 as compared to $16.1 million in the
same period last year. Financing activities
-26-
<PAGE>
included reduction in bank loans payable of $5.4 million and distributions
paid to shareholders of $16.3 million. Financing activities in 1996 included
proceeds of a mortgage note payable on Shenandoah Village Apartments of $8.8
million, a reduction in bank loans payable of $5.0 million and distributions
paid to shareholders of $16.3 million.
Funds From Operations
Funds from operations increased 6% to $19.7 million for the year
ended August 31, 1997, as compared to $18.6 million in 1996. The increase is
primarily due to an improvement in net operating income, exclusive of a
provision for losses on investments, of 6% for apartments.
Capital Expenditures
During fiscal 1997, the Trust expended $3.6 million for capital
expenditures: $2.9 million ($502 per unit owned adjusted for partnership
interests) for multifamily communities and $0.7 million for shopping centers.
The Trust's policy is to capitalize expenditures for floor coverings,
appliances and major exterior preparation and painting for apartments. During
the Year, $0.8 million ($171 per unit owned) was expended for floor covering
and $0.3 million ($71 per unit owned) for appliances.
In addition, the Trust expended $1.2 million for non-recurring
improvement costs to multifamily communities which included $0.7 million for
exterior preparation and painting.
Environmental Matters
In 1994, the Trust established a reserve for environmental
remediation costs of $0.6 million. In addition, the Trust received a credit of
$0.4 million for environmental matters in connection with the acquisition of
two properties. During 1995, 1996 and 1997 a total of $0.6 million was charged
against the reserve leaving a balance of $0.4 million. There can be no
assurance that these amounts will be adequate to cover future environmental
costs.
Competition
The Trust's shopping centers compete with other shopping centers in
their trade areas as well as alternative retail formats, such as catalogues
and home shopping networks. Apartment properties compete for tenants with
other multifamily properties in their markets. Economic factors such as
employment trends and the level of interest rates, impact shopping center
sales as well as prospective tenant's choice to rent or own his/her residence.
Inflation
Inflation can have many effects on the financial performance of the
Trust. Shopping center leases often provide for the payment of rents based on
a percentage of sales which may increase with inflation. Leases may also
provide for tenants to bear all or a portion of operating expenses which may
reduce the impact of such increases on the Trust. Apartment leases are
normally for a one-year term which may allow the Trust to seek increased rents
as leases are renewed or when new tenants are obtained.

Employment Agreements
The Trust entered into an Employment Agreement with Mr. Cohen on July
16, 1982, which was amended and restated on March 14, 1985 and further amended
as of January 1, 1990 and September 29, 1997. The Employment Agreement
provides that Mr. Cohen is to serve as Chairman of the Board of Trustees of
the Trust and Chairman of the Property Committee of the Board of Trustees.
Pursuant to the 1997 amendment, the employment term shall continue until
December 31, 2000, with automatic calendar year renewals thereafter that will
continue until written notice of termination is delivered by either Mr. Cohen
or the Trust at least 180 days prior to the end of the then current term. The
current annual base compensation is $345,000, and the agreement provides that
base compensation cannot be unilaterally decreased by the Trust. Mr. Cohen was
not a participant in the Trust's defined benefit pension plan, which was
terminated during Fiscal 1995, nor is he a participant in the non-qualified
retirement plan which was established during Fiscal 1995 and in which the
other executive officers of the Trust named in the Summary Compensation Table
are participants. Following the termination of Mr. Cohen's employment for any
reason (including expiration of the term) other than termination for specified
cause, the Trust is required to make payments to Mr. Cohen and, in the event
his wife survives him, to Mr. Cohen's widow. Post-termination payments to Mr.
Cohen are to continue for the balance of his lifetime at a rate equal to,
subject to an annual cost-of-living adjustment, 50% of the rate of Mr. Cohen's
highest annual basic compensation during his employment with the Trust. If Mr.
Cohen is survived by his wife, the Trust is to pay her for the balance of her
lifetime at a rate equal to, subject to an annual cost-of-living adjustment,
(i) 25% of the rate of Mr. Cohen's highest annual basic compensation during
Mr. Cohen's employment with the Trust or (ii) if higher than the rate
specified in subclause (i), 50% of the rate of the adjusted payments to which
Mr. Cohen shall have been entitled at the time of his death. During fiscal
1997, the Trust was not required to accrue on its financial statements any
additional amount in respect of the aforementioned post-termination payments.
As of the end of fiscal 1997, such accrual equals approximately $900,000. The
Employment Agreement also requires the Trust to maintain $150,000 of life
insurance coverage on Mr. Cohen's life, payable to beneficiaries designated by
Mr. Cohen.
The Trust entered into an Employment Agreement with Mr. Weller on
December 14, 1993. The Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Weller is to
serve as President and Chief Operating Officer of the Trust with
responsibility for the day-to-day management of the Trust. The employment
term, which began on January 31, 1994, is three years, a period that is
automatically extended, as of January 31, 1996 and each January 31 thereafter,
for a new three year term beginning on such January 31 unless the Trust gives
Mr. Weller written notice at least 60 days prior to January 31 in a year that
the term is not to be extended as of such January 31. The agreement further
provides for an initial annual base salary of $275,000 and provides that if
the annual salary is increased, such increased annual salary thereafter
constitutes the annual base salary for purposes of the agreement. Mr. Weller's
annual base salary under the agreement currently is $305,000. In accordance
with the Employment Agreement, on December 14, 1993, the Trust granted Mr.
Weller non-qualified stock options to purchase 100,000 Shares of the Trust at
an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Shares on such date.
See "Stock
-36-
<PAGE>
Option Plans" below. The Trust is required to provide certain employee
benefits to Mr. Weller, including $1,500,000 of life insurance. Mr. Weller was
required to invest a minimum of $250,000 in Shares of the Trust. Upon a
termination of employment by Mr. Weller for specified good reason (including
delivery by the Trust of written notice that the term of the agreement is not
to be renewed for a new three-year period) or by the Trust other than for
cause, disability or death, Mr. Weller is entitled to receive a lump-sum cash
payment equal to the sum of any unpaid annual base salary through the date of
termination and the amount of annual base salary that would have been paid
during the remaining term of employment, discounted on a present value basis.
The Employment Agreement provides that all options to purchase Shares granted
to Mr. Weller vest and become immediately exercisable upon a change of control
of the Trust or upon a termination of employment by the Trust without cause or
by Mr. Weller for good reason or upon Mr. Weller's death or disability. The
Employment Agreement provides that, in the event any payments to Mr. Weller
result in the imposition on Mr. Weller of an excise tax under Section 4999 of
the Internal Revenue Code, the Trust shall pay Mr. Weller an additional amount
sufficient to reimburse him for such excise tax.
Mr. Rogers' employment agreement with the Trust was terminated on
September 30, 1997. Pursuant to an Employment Extension and Separation
Agreement, dated October 3, 1997, by and between Mr. Rogers and the Trust (a)
Mr. Rogers' employment has been extended through December 31, 1997 at his
current rate of compensation, and (b) from January 1, 1998 through March 31,
1998, Mr. Rogers will make himself available to the Trust up to three days a
month for business consulting (any number over three days a month will be
compensated at a specified additional rate). The agreement also provides,
among other things, for (i) a $50,000 payment to Mr. Rogers on January 2,
1998, (ii) a $25,000 payment to Mr. Rogers on or before each of December 26,
1998 and 1999, (iii) medical insurance reimbursements for Mr. Rogers and his
spouse for the remainder of their natural lives, and (iv) the immediate
vesting of all Trust options held by him and the extension of the exercise
date of the same to June 30, 2000. The Trust has accrued $250,000 in respect
of the cost of extending Mr. Rogers' options.
The Trust has an employment agreement with Mr. Linn, who serves as
Senior Vice President - Acquisitions and Secretary of the Trust. The agreement
has an initial term expiring December 31, 1999 with automatic one-year
renewals unless either party gives the other not less than 180 days notice
prior to the expiration of the then current term. The agreement provides that
the annual base compensation shall be $136,500 per year and that such amount
may be increased (but not decreased) by the Board of Trustees.
The Trust has an employment agreement with Mr. Massimini, who serves
as Senior Vice President-Finance and Treasurer. The agreement has a term
expiring September 30, 1998, with automatic one-year renewals thereafter until
written notice of termination is delivered at least 180 days prior to the
expiration of the then-current term.

Stock Option Plans
Pursuant to the Trust's 1990 Incentive and Non-Qualified Stock Option
Plan (the "Employee Plan"), incentive stock options designed to qualify under
Section 422A of the Internal Revenue Code and non-qualified stock options to
purchase up to an aggregate of 400,000 of the Trust's Shares may be issued by
the Trust to officers and key employees of the Trust. The Employee Plan is
administered by a committee of the Board, currently the Executive Compensation
and Human Resources Committee, which has authority to determine the persons to
whom options will be granted, the number of option shares, the exercise price,
the date of grant, and the term of options granted under the Employee Plan.
The Employee Plan requires that the exercise price not be less than 100% of
the fair market value of the Shares on the date of grant.
The Company also has a 1990 Stock Option Plan for Non-Employee
Trustees (the "Trustee Plan") under which each non-employee Trustee
automatically receives a non-qualified option on 1,000 Shares on the last
trading day in January of each year at an exercise price equal to the closing
price on that date. Options granted under the Trustee Plan vest in four equal
annual increments and expire on the tenth anniversary of the grant date. The
Plan authorizes
-39-
<PAGE>
the granting of options on 100,000 Shares, of which options on 52,750 remain
ungranted. The Plan would have expired in January, 1997, but the Shareholders
of the Registrant will vote on an extension of the Trustee Plan through 2004.
In connection with the TRO Transaction; the Trust adopted the 1997
Stock Option Plan (the "1997 Plan"). Pursuant to the 1997 Plan, incentive
stock options designed to qualify under Section 422A of the Internal Revenue
Code and non-qualified stock options to purchase up to an aggregate of 560,000
of the Trust's Shares may be granted by the Trust to key employees of the
Trust and the Management Company. The 1997 Plan is administered by the
Executive Compensation and Human Resources Committee, which has authority to
determine the persons to whom options will be granted, the number of option
shares, the exercise price, the date of grant, and the term of options granted
under the Employee Plan. The 1997 Plan requires that the exercise price not be
less than the fair market value of the Shares on the grant date. As of October
31, 1997, options to purchase up to 455,000 Shares have been issued under the
1997 Plan, all at an exercise price of $25.41 per share, none of which are
vested. Of such amounts, options on 150,000 shares, 75,000 shares and 50,000
shares were granted to Messrs. Ronald Rubin, George Rubin and Edward Glickman,
respectively.
In accordance with the terms of Mr. Weller's Employment Agreement
with the Trust, the Trust adopted the 1993 Jonathan B. Weller Non Qualified
Stock Option Plan (the "Weller Plan"). Under the Weller Plan, on December 14,
1993 the Trust granted Mr. Weller options to purchase 100,000 Shares at an
exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Shares on such date. Such
options have a term of ten years and become exercisable in four equal annual
installments of 25,000 Shares each, commencing on the first anniversary of the
grant date, subject to earlier exercisability under certain specified
circumstances.
Other Benefit Plans
Section 401(k) Plan. The Trust maintains a 401(k) profit sharing and
retirement savings plan in which substantially all of the officers and
employees are eligible to participate.
Supplemental Retirement Plan. The Trust maintains a Supplemental
Retirement Plan in which the executive officers named in the Summary
Compensation Table other than Mr. Cohen are participants. Under the
Supplemental Retirement Plan, the Trust is required to make defined
contributions to the plan annually in amounts equal to amounts that would have
been required to be contributed under the Trust's defined benefit pension
plan, which was terminated in fiscal 1995, in order to fund the targeted
retirement benefit (after taking into account amounts distributed under the
terminated defined benefit pension plan, together with an assumed rate of
return thereon). The Trust has recorded $92,000, $160,000 and $168,000 of
contributions due under the provisions of this plan for years ended August 31,
1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
The Management Company Stock Bonus Plan. The Management Company has
established a stock bonus plan for all of its employees who have completed at
least one year of service as of the effective date of the plan (September 30,
1997). The plan is expected to be
-40-
<PAGE>
qualified for favorable tax treatment under section 401(a) of the Internal
Revenue Code and all of the outstanding voting common shares of the Management
Company are held by the trust established under the plan.
The Management Company contributed all of its voting common shares to
the plan for the plan year ending December 31, 1997. The shares will be
allocated to the plan accounts of the eligible employees as of December 31,
1997, pro rata, based on their covered compensation for 1997. The shares held
by the plan will be appraised as of the effective date, and as of each
December 31 thereafter. The value of an employee's account under the plan will
be payable to the employee upon termination of service. Since the Management
Company's Articles of Incorporation restrict ownership of all of the
outstanding voting common shares of the Management Company to the Management
Company employees or to a tax-qualified plan for the benefit of employees,
benefits to terminated employees will be paid only in cash.
Voting on major corporate transactions (including mergers,
recapitalizations, liquidations, and similar transactions) will be passed
through by the plan trustee, CoreStates Bank, N.A., to the plan's
participants. Voting by the plan trustee on other matters will be directed by
majority vote of the Management Company Stock Bonus Plan Committee, who are
appointed by the Board of Directors of the Management Company.
Incentive Bonus Plan. The Trust and the Management Company have
established an incentive bonus plan, effective January 1, 1998, for certain
officers and key employees of the Trust and the Management Company. The plan
is a nonqualified, unfunded plan with bonuses to be paid from the general
assets of the Trust.
The Executive Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board
of Trustees of the Trust administers the plan. The Committee has designated
those officers and key employees who are eligible to receive a bonus under the
plan, and each of the individuals who entered into employment agreements in
connection with the TRO Transaction have been included as eligible to
participate in the plan. A bonus pool has been created equal to a graduated
percentage of "Adjusted Funds Available for Distribution," which is generally
defined as funds from operations less the sum of all obligations of the Trust,
including annual capital expenditures, reserves for capital expenditures,
distributions by the Trust and its operating partnership and working capital
reserves. One-half of the pool will be paid to the participants based on set
individual percentages. All or a portion of the remainder of the pool may be
awarded by senior management (in its discretion, but subject to the approval
of the Committee) to any of the participants in the plan and/or to any other
employees of the Trust or the Management Company who achieved the goals and
objectives stated in the Trust's business plan. The plan provides that in no
event will incentive compensation paid under the plan exceed $1,500,000 in any
plan year.
Bonuses will be paid in single-sum cash payments within a reasonable
time after the Trust's fiscal year-end financial statements are approved.
Except as provided in a participant's employment agreement, only participants
who are employed by the Trust or the Management
-41-
<PAGE>
Company on December 31 of each plan year will be eligible to receive payments
under the plan (unless the participant was no longer an employee due to a
reorganization, or because he retired on or after age 65, became disabled, or
died).

Officer of the Trust and George F. Rubin, and (vii) elected three designees of
TRO, Ronald Rubin, George F. Rubin and Rosemarie B. Greco, as trustees of the
Trust. Ronald Rubin's employment agreement is for an initial term of five (5)
years and provides for annual base compensation of not less than $345,000 per
annum. The employment agreements of Messrs. George F. Rubin and Edward
Glickman are for initial terms of two years and provide for base compensation
of $250,000 per annum and $230,000 per annum, respectively.
The OP Units referred to above are redeemable by the Operating
Partnership, at the option of the holder, beginning one year following the
dates of their respective issuance for an amount per OP Unit equal to the
average closing price of a Share on the twenty trading days immediately prior
to the date notice of redemption is received by the Trust in its capacity as
-42-
<PAGE>
general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Trust has the right to
acquire any OP Units tendered for redemption for (i) cash, or (ii) Shares, on
the basis of one Share for each OP Unit (subject to adjustments for share
splits and other capital changes). Redeeming holders of OP Units who receive
Shares from the Trust will have certain rights to cause the Trust to register
such Shares for resale under the federal securities laws. Ronald Rubin, George
F. Rubin and Edward Glickman, as a result of the TRO Transaction, will each be
prohibited from reselling more than one-half of the Shares to which he would
be entitled upon redemption of Class A OP Units held by them during the five
year period following the completion of the TRO Transaction if he continues to
hold executive positions with the Trust or the Management Company during such
period.
In the TRO Transaction, in exchange for their direct and indirect
interests in the Management Company and certain affiliated entities, (i)
Ronald Rubin received, directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership of 143,044
Class A OP Units; (ii) George F. Rubin received, directly or indirectly,
beneficial ownership of 86,055 Class A Units; and (iii) Edward Glickman
received, directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership of 13,066 Class A OP
Units. All such individuals will also be eligible to receive additional Class
A OP Units relating to any contingent payments for their equity interest in
TRO and for the Acquisition Properties and four of the Development Properties
in which the Trust acquired interests in the TRO Transaction, all in
accordance with the valuation and payment provisions of the applicable
agreements. It is anticipated that holders of Class A OP Units will receive
distributions at the approximate times, and in the same amounts, as dividends
are paid by the Trust to the Shareholders. Generally, each of such Class A OP
Units is redeemable for cash, or at the option of the Trust, for one Share.
Certain of the Class A OP Units in the TRO Transaction are subject to pledges
in favor of the Operating Partnership until certain obligations of TRO are
satisfied.
The amount of consideration paid by the Trust and the manner in which
it would be paid was determined by the Trust's management and was approved by
a Special Acquisition Committee of the Board of Trustees and by the Board of
Trustees. The Board received an opinion from Lehman Brothers that the
consideration to be paid was fair from a financial point of view, and the
Shareholders of the Trust approved the completion by the Trust of the TRO
Transaction at a Special Meeting of Shareholders held on September 29, 1997.
The Board of Trustees has established a committee consisting of Leonard I.
Korman, Chair, Rosemarie B. Greco and William R. Dimeling for the purpose of
addressing and resolving any matters pertaining to the TRO Transaction as they
arise on an on-going basis.
The Management Company provides real estate management, leasing,
administrative, accounting and/or development services to 21 properties and
related entities (including ther retail properties on which the Registrant holds
a right of first refusal on the affiliated interest and eight office buildings)
in which Mr. Ronald Rubin and George Rubin and/or other TRO Affiliates have
direct or indirect interest. All such services are provided on terms which the
Management Company believes to be no less favorable to the Management Company
than agreements between the Management Company and unrelated third parties with
respect to similar services. For the twelve months ended December 31, 1996 and
the nine months ended September 30, 1997,
-43-
<PAGE>
revenues received by the Management Company from such properties and entities
aggregated $5,951,000 and $5,115,000, respectively.
The Management Company leases office space from Richard I. Rubin & Co.,
Inc. under a sublease agreement. The term of the sublease agreement began on
January 1, 1994 and expires on July 31, 1999. The monthly base rent is $36,535.
The Management Company also leases additional office space in the same building
from Bellevue Associates for a minimum rental of $10,524 per year plus
additional rent based on the Management Company's share of increases in office
maintenance and other costs. Ronald Rubin and George Rubin own a majority of the
equity interests of Richard I. Rubin & Co., Inc. and approximately 10% of
Bellevue Associates. The lease rates on this space is at least as favorable to
the Management Company as that paid by other tenants in the building for
comparable space.
During fiscal 1997, the Trust paid or accrued fees and costs to the
Philadelphia law firm of Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP, general counsel for the
Trust, for legal services rendered to the Trust, its subsidiaries and its
affiliates, including partnerships and other ventures in which the Trust is
involved. Sylvan M. Cohen, Chairman of the Trust, and Chief Executive Officer
of the Trust until September 30, 1997, and Robert Freedman, a Trustee of the
Trust until September 1997, are of counsel to such firm.
Rosemarie B. Greco is the former President and Chief Executive
Officer of CoreStates Bank, N.A., and the former President of its parent
company, CoreStates Financial Corp. Mr. Leonard I. Korman is a Director of
CoreStates Bank, N.A. CoreStates Bank, N.A. has been, and will continue to be,
a primary source of financing for the Trust. At November 1, 1997, the Trust
was indebted (i) to CoreStates Bank, N.A. and the other banks in the lending
group in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $95.3 million on an
existing line of credit in the total amount of $150 million, and (ii) to a
two-bank group, of which CoreStates Bank, N.A. is a member, for $33.9 million
on an existing $35 million term loan facility. All borrowing arrangements from
the Trust from CoreStates Bank, N.A. have been on terms which the Trust
believes are at least as favorable to the Trust as would be available from
other lending sources.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Years Ended August 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995
1. Summary of significant accounting policies
Nature of Operations
Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust (the "Trust") is a self-administered
equity real estate investment trust engaged, directly and through subsidiaries
and joint ventures, in owning and managing income producing real estate, with
an emphasis on shopping centers and apartment complexes. The Trust primarily
operates in the mid-Atlantic region from Pennsylvania to Virginia and in
selected areas of Florida.
Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of the Trust include the accounts of
thirteen wholly owned subsidiaries, two are Delaware corporations, one is a
Nebraska corporation, one is a Virginia corporation, one is a Maryland
corporation and eight are Florida corporations. One partnership in which the
Trust is a 65% general partner, and has control as provided in the partnership
agreement, has been consolidated for financial statement presentation. The
minority partner's interest is 35%. All significant intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Partnership and joint venture investments
In accordance with the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants'
Statement of Position 78-9, "Accounting for Investments in Real Estate
Ventures," the Trust accounts for its investment in partnerships and joint
ventures which it does not control using the equity method of accounting.
These investments, which represent 25-to-70% non-controlling ownership
interests, are recorded initially at the Trust's cost and subsequently
adjusted for the Trust's net equity in income and cash contributions and
distributions.
Statements of cash flows
The Trust considers all highly liquid short-term investments with an original
maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash paid for
interest was $8,963,000, $9,962,000, and $8,619,000, for the years ended
August 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Capitalization of costs
It is the Trust's policy to capitalize interest and real estate taxes related
to construction in progress and to depreciate these costs over the life of the
related assets in order to more properly match revenues and expenses. These
items are capitalized for income tax purposes and amortized or depreciated in
accordance with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. For fiscal years
1997, 1996 and 1995 the Trust did not capitalize any interest or real estate
taxes.
The Trust has capitalized as deferred costs certain expenditures related to
the financing and leasing of certain properties. Capitalized loan fees are
being amortized over the terms of the related loans and leasing commissions
are being amortized over the term of the related leases.
During 1997, the Trust capitalized certain deposits associated with the
planned future purchase of two regional malls. These deposits were applied to
the respective properties upon consummation of the transaction described in
Note 10.
F-4
<PAGE>
Depreciation
The Trust, for financial reporting purposes, depreciates its buildings,
equipment and leasehold improvements over their estimated useful lives of 10
to 45 years, using the straight-line method of depreciation. For Federal
income tax purposes, the Trust currently uses the straight-line method of
depreciation and the useful lives prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code.
Allowance for possible losses
On September 1, 1996, the Trust adopted the provisions of Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" ("SFAS No.
121"). SFAS No. 121 requires long-lived assets to be held and used by the
Trust to be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in
circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. If the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and
without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount of the asset, an
impairment loss should be recognized. Measurement of an impairment loss for
these assets should be based on the fair market value of the assets. Adoption
of this statement had no impact on the Trust's financial position or results
of operations.
During 1997, an impairment loss of approximately $500,000 was recorded
following the expiration of an option to sell certain land parcels held by a
partnership in which the Trust holds an equity interest.
Benefit plans
The Trust has provided pension benefits since 1970 for all employees,
excluding the Chairman, for whom retirement benefits are provided in an
employment contract.
With regard to the Chairman's employment contract, no provision was required
for fiscal years ended August 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
Derivative Financial Instruments
In managing interest rate exposure on certain floating rate debt, the Trust at
times enters into interest rate swap and cap agreements. When interest rates
change, the differential to be paid or received is accrued as interest expense
and is recognized over the life of the swap agreements. The costs of cap
transactions are deferred and amortized over the contract period. The
amortized costs of cap transactions and interest income and interest expense
on swap transactions are included in mortgage and bank loan interest.
Income taxes
The Trust has elected to qualify as a real estate investment trust under
Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code and intends to remain so
qualified. Accordingly, no provision has been made for Federal income taxes on
income resulting from those sales of real estate investments which have or
will be distributed to shareholders within the prescribed time limits.
However, taxes are provided for those gains which are not anticipated to be
distributed to shareholders.
The Trust is subject to a Federal excise tax computed on a calendar year. The
excise tax equals 4% of the excess, if any, of 85% of the Trust's ordinary
income plus 95% of the Trust's capital gain net income for the calendar year
over cash distributions during the calendar year, as defined. The Trust has in
the past distributed a substantial portion of its taxable income in the
subsequent fiscal year and may also follow this policy in the future.
F-5
<PAGE>
No provision for excise tax was made for fiscal years 1997, 1996 and 1995 as
no tax was due.
The tax status of distributions paid to shareholders was composed of the
following for the calendar years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995.
1996 1995
------ ------
Ordinary income $1.72 $1.88
Capital gains .16 --
----- -----
$1.88 $1.88
===== =====
The tax status of distributions paid to shareholders for the calendar year
ending December 31, 1997 will be determined upon preparation of the Trust's
federal income tax return. Management expects such distributions to consist of
ordinary income and capital gains.
Net income per share
Earnings per share are based on the weighted average number of shares
outstanding which were 8,678,560 in 1997, 8,676,098 in 1996, and 8,670,810 in
1995.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain prior year amounts leave been reclassified to conform with the current
year presentation.
2. Investments in partnerships and joint ventures
The following presents summarized financial information for the Trust's
investments in 22 and 26 partnerships and joint ventures at August 31, 1997

As of August 31, 1997, $13.0 million of the unsecured revolving line of credit
was outstanding ($7.3 million directly by the Trust and $5.7 million through
partnerships and joint ventures) and $26.7 million of the term loan ($20
million for ten years due August 2006 and $7 million for seven years due
August 2003). The line of credit and term loans bear interest at LIBOR plus
185 basis points. Under the credit facility, the Trust must maintain minimum
net worth and operating income levels as defined in the loan documents.
The weighted average interest rates based on amounts borrowed were 7.43%,
7.51% and 7.98% for fiscal years ended August 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995,
respectively. Subsequent to year end, the Trust entered into a new $150
million credit facility (see Note 10).
During 1995, the Trust purchased interest rate protection at a cost of
$250,000 on $15,000,000 of outstanding debt limiting the 30-day LIBOR rate to
7.5% for three Years. The Trust also limited its exposure to increases in
LIBOR on $20,000,000 of its floating rate debt by entering into a swap
agreement which fixes a rate of 6.12% versus 30-day LIBOR through June 2001.
The Trust is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by
counterparties to the interest rate protection agreements; however, the Trust
does not anticipate non-performance by the counterparties.
At August 31, 1997, the Trust was in compliance with all debt covenants.
The carrying values of the mortgage notes and bank loans payable at August 31,
1997 and 1996 were approximately equal to their respective fair values, as
F-8
<PAGE>
determined by using year-end interest rates and market conditions. At August
31, 1997, the fair values of the interest rate protection and swap agreements
referred to above were approximately $0 and $85,000, respectively.
4. Benefit Plans
During 1995 the Trust adopted a 401(k) Plan (the "Plan") in which
substantially all of the officers and employees are eligible to participate.
The Plan permits eligible participants, as defined in the Plan agreement, to
defer up to 15% of their compensation, and the Trust, at its discretion, may
match a percentage of the employees' contributions. The employees'
contributions are fully vested and contributions from the Trust vest in
accordance with an employee's years of service as defined in the plan
agreement. The Trust's contributions to the Plan for the Years ended August
31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 were $41,000, $39,000 and $1,000, respectively.
During 1995, the Trust also adopted a Supplemental Retirement Plan (the
"Supplemental Plan") covering certain senior management employees. The
Supplemental Plan provides eligible employees through normal retirement date,
as defined in the plan agreement, a benefit amount similar to that which would
have been received under the provisions of a pension plan which was terminated
in 1994. The Trust has recorded $92,000, $160,000 and $168,000 of
contributions due under the provisions of this plan for the years ended August
31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively,
5. Stock Option Plans
In December 1990, the shareholders approved an incentive stock option plan for
key employees and a stock option plan for non-employee trustees, covering
200,000 and 100,000 shares of beneficial interest, respectively. Under the
terms of the plan, the purchase price of shares subject to each option granted
will be at least equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date of
grant. Options under the incentive stock option plan may be exercised as
determined by the Trust, but in no event later than 10 years from the date of
grant. In December 1993, the Board of Trustees amended the incentive stock
option plan for key employees, to increase the number of shares subject to
option to 400,000 shares, to change the name of the plan to "1990 Incentive
and Non Qualifying Stock Option Plan" and to expand some provisions of the
plan. The stock option plan for non-employee trustees provides for annual
grants of 1,000 options (becoming exercisable in four equal installments).
The options expire 10 years after the date of grant.
In December 1993, the Board of Trustees adopted a non-qualifying stock option
plan covering 100,000 shares. The Trust granted options on February 1, 1994
having a term of 10 years and subject to the other terms and conditions set
forth in the plan. All 100,000 shares are outstanding at August 31, 1997.
Changes in options outstanding are as follows:
Plan For
Employees Non-Employee
Plan Trustees
--------- ------------
Options outstanding at 8/31/95 244,625 35,250
Options granted 50,500 6,000
Options exercised 0 0
------- -------
Options outstanding at 8/31/96 295,125 41,250
Options granted 45,000 6,000
Options exercised 0 (9,000)
Options outstanding at 8/31/97 340,125 38,250
------- -------
As of August 31, 1997, options for 377,500 shares had been granted pursuant to
F-9
<PAGE>
the incentive stock option plan of which 340,125 remain outstanding at $16.00
to $24.625 per share and options for 48,000 shares had been granted, pursuant
to the stock option plan for non-employee trustees of which 38,250 shares
remain outstanding at $15.75 to $25.375 per share. At August 31, 1997, options
for 223,286 shares of beneficial interest with an aggregate purchase price of
$4,853,000 (average of $21.73 per share) were exercisable.
During the fourth quarter of 1997, the Board of Trustees extended the exercise
dates for 62,500 options previously granted to an officer of the Trust and two
retiring trustees. As a result, the Trust recorded compensation expense of
$300,000 relating to this change in terms.
During 1997, the Trust adopted an accounting standard, "Accounting for Stock-
Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"). SFAS No 123 encourages a fair value
method of accounting for employee stock options and similar equity
instruments. The statement also allows an entity to continue to account for
stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value method in APB Opinion No.
25. As provided for in the statement, the Company elected to continue the
intrinsic value method of expense recognition. If compensation cost for these
plans had been determined using the fair value method prescribed by SFAS No.
123, the Trust's net income would have reflected the pro forma amounts
indicated below.
1997 1996
---- ----
Net income $10,212,000 $11,033,000
Net income per share $1.18 $1.27
The pro forma effect on the results may not be representative of the impact in
future years because the fair value method was not applied to options granted
before 1996.
The fair value of each option was estimated on the grant date using the Black-
Scholes option pricing model and the assumptions presented below.
1997 1996
---- ----
Expected life in years 5 5
Risk-free interest rate 6.10% 5.58%
Volatility 17.31% 18.12%
Dividend yield 7.28% 8.90%
The weighted average fair value of options granted was $2.05 per option in
1997 and $1.29 per option in 1996.
In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No.
128, "Earnings per Share". The new statement is effective for fiscal years
ending after December 15, 1997. When adopted, the statement will require
implementing a new definition of earnings per share including restatement of
prior year amounts. Management has determined there will be no significant
impact upon adoption of the statement.
6. Operating Leases
The Trust's apartments are typically leased to residents under operating
leases for a period of one year. The Trust's shopping centers are leased to
tenants under operating leases with expiration dates extending to the year
2008.
F-10
<PAGE>
Future minimum rentals under non-cancelable operating leases at August 31,
1997 are as follows:
1998 $4,911,000
1999 4,574,000
2000 4,340,000
2001 4,005,000
2002 3,438,000
Thereafter 12,189,000
$33,457,000
7. Commitments and Contingencies
During 1995 certain environmental matters arose at certain properties in which
the Trust has an interest. The Trust retained environmental consultants in
order to investigate these matters. At one property, in which the Trust has a
50% ownership interest, groundwater contamination exists which the Trust
alleges was caused by the former tenant. Estimates to remediate this property,
which are subject to the length of monitoring and the extent of remediation
required, range in total from $100,000 to $1,000,000. In addition, above
normal radon levels have been detected at two wholly owned properties. The
estimated remaining cost to remediate these properties is approximately
$115,000, which costs were received as a credit from the sellers as part of
the initial acquisitions.
The Trust has recorded its share of these liabilities totaling $366,000
related to the consultants' evaluation of these matters which, in certain
instances, are subject to applicable state approvals of the remediation plans.
In Management's opinion, no material incremental cost will be incurred on
these properties. The Trust will pursue recovery of remediation costs from all
of the responsible parties, including its tenants and partners.
The Trust has been named as a defendant in a suit brought by persons and their
affiliates who are partners of the Trust in three partnerships. The Trust is
vigorously defending the suit and has denied the plaintiffs' allegations. The
Trust also believes that it has viable claims against certain of the same
partners (or their affiliates) which it is asserting. As the pleadings are not
yet closed and discovery is still continuing, it is not possible to judge the
ultimate outcome of these suits at this time. However, Management does not
believe that resolution of these matters will have a material effect on the
Trust's financial condition or results of operations.
8. Acquisitions
The Trust acquired one property during the year ended August 31, 1995 for
approximately $34,000,000 (including improvements) which was accounted for by
the purchase method. The results of the property were included in the Trust's
financial statements from the acquisition date. The pro forma financial
information may not be indicative of results that would have been reported if
the acquisition had occurred on September 1, 1994. Also, amounts presented
below may not be indicative of future results.

10. Subsequent Events
On September 30, 1997 the Trust completed a series of related transactions
pursuant to which the Trust (i) transferred substantially all of its real
estate interests to a newly formed operating partnership ("OP"), of which the
Trust is the sole general partner, (ii) the OP acquired all of the non-voting
common shares of The Rubin Organization, Inc. ("TRO"), a full service real
estate company, constituting 95% of the total equity of TRO in exchange for
the issuance of 200,000 OP units and a provision to issue up to 800,000
additional OP units over the next five years, upon achievement of certain
specified levels of adjusted funds from operations per share, as defined, over
that period; (iii) acquired the interests of certain affiliates of TRO in the
Court at Oxford Valley for total consideration of $6.4 million plus a share of
debt in the amount of $24.7 million, of which $684,000 was paid in cash and
the balance paid in 233,248 OP units valued at approximately $5.5 million;
F-12
<PAGE>
(iv) committed to acquire the interests of certain affiliates of TRO, in two
shopping centers nearing completion (Northeast Tower Center and Hillview
Shopping Center); and (v) acquired TRO affiliates' interests in four
predevelopment properties.
In connection with the above transaction, the Trust also acquired two malls
located in Florence, South Carolina and North Dartmouth, Massachusetts for an
aggregate purchase price of approximately $80.4 million consisting of $ 15.1
million in cash, $25.2 million of assumed mortgage debt, $35.1 million of
borrowings under the new revolving credit facility and the balance paid in
213,038 OP units valued at approximately $5 million.
Coincident with the closing of the TRO Transaction, the Operating Partnership
entered into a $150 million revolving credit facility (the "Credit Facility").
The obligations of the Operating Partnership under the Credit Facility have
been guaranteed by the Trust.
The Credit Facility is for an initial term of two years and bears interest, at
the borrower's election, at (i) the higher of prime rate, or the Federal Funds
lending rate plus .5%, or (ii) the London Interbank Offered Rate plus margins
ranging from 1.1% to 1.7%, depending on the Trust's consolidated Leverage
Ratio, as defined.
The Credit Facility contains various financial covenants with which the Trust
must comply. Until the Trust reduces its leverage ratio below 50%, the lending
banks will hold unrecorded mortgages on eleven unencumbered properties which
the Operating Partnership owns, directly or indirectly, and would be entitled
to record such mortgages upon any event of default.
As of September 30, 1997, the Operating Partnership had drawn $95 million on
the Credit Facility which was used to repay amounts outstanding on the
Company's prior line of credit and for cash payments in the TRO Transaction
referred to above.
On September 29, 1997, the Trust changed its fiscal year end from August 31 to
December 31.

Report of Independent Public Accountants
To the Shareholders and Trustees of Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Pennsylvania
Real Estate Investment Trust (a Pennsylvania Trust) and Subsidiaries as of
August 31, 1997 and 1996, and the related consolidated statements of income,
shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended August 31, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the 1997, 1996 and
1995 financial statements of Lehigh Valley Mall Associates, a partnership in
which the Trust has a 50 percent interest which is reflected in the
accompanying financial statements using the equity method of accounting. The
equity in net income of Lehigh Valley Mall Associates represents 23 percent,
31 percent and 32 percent of net income in 1997, 1996 and 1995, respectively.
The financial statements of Lehigh Valley Mall Associates were audited by
other auditors whose report has been furnished to us and our opinion, insofar
as it relates to the amounts included for Lehigh Valley Mall Associates, is
based solely on the report of the other auditors.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, based upon our audit and the report of other auditors, the
financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust
and Subsidiaries as of August 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended August 31, 1997 in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Notes to Financial Statements
August 31, 1996
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Real Estate
The Partnership owns and operates a regional shopping center and an office
building (the "Property") located in Whitehall, Pennsylvania. Two retail
department stores own adjacent property upon which each has constructed a
store as part of the Property and have entered into operating agreements with
the Partnership under which they are responsible for a share of common area
expenses.
Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method generally over 35 years
for the shopping center and 22 years for the office building, representing the
estimated lives of the assets.
Recognition of Rental Income
Minimum rent is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease terms
regardless of when payments are due. Accrued rent represents minimum rent
recognized in excess of payments due.
Percentage rents are accrued as income for those tenants whose sales volume at
August 31 exceeded the minimum annual sales volumes required for percentage
rents.
Deferred Charges
Deferred charges, consisting of costs incurred that are reimbursable from
tenants, are amortized as tenants are billed. Accumulated amortization as of
August 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994 amounted to $470,876, $35,968, and $0,
respectively.
Deferred Finance Costs
Costs incurred in connection with the construction loan and the refinancing
described in Note 2 have been capitalized. The costs related to the
construction loan will be fully amortized on the date of the refinancing.
Costs associated with the refinancing will be amortized over the term of the
related mortgage.
Deferred Leasing Costs

Notes to Financial Statements (continued)
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Costs incurred in connection with leasing are capitalized and amortized over
the period of the applicable tenant's lease. Accumulated amortization as of
August 31, 1996, 1995, and 1994 amounted to $38,513, $31,251, and $23,989,
respectively.
Fair Values of Financial Instruments
Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amount reported in the balance sheet
for cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value.
Mortgages Payable and Construction Loan: The fair values of the mortgages
payable and construction loan have not been disclosed due to the refinancing
which occurred on September 18, 1996.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect various amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Income Taxes
In conformity with the Internal Revenue Code and applicable state and local
tax statutes, taxable income or loss of the limited partnership is required to
be reported in the tax returns of the partners in accordance with the terms of
the limited partnership agreement and, accordingly, no provision has been made
in the accompanying financial statements for any federal, state, or local
income taxes.
Cash Equivalents
The Partnership considers all highly liquid investments with maturities of
three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts in the 1995 financial statements have been reclassified to
conform with the 1996 presentation.

2. Mortgages Payable and Construction Loan (continued)
The Partnership refinanced the above mortgages and construction loan on
September 18, 1996 with a mortgage loan obtained from an insurance company.
The proceeds of the mortgage loan of $54,000,000 were used to pay off the
outstanding principal and interest due on all of the above loans, pay
prepayment fees and other closing costs, including approximately $338,000 paid
to an affiliate, and provided a $26,000,000 distribution to the partners.
The mortgage is secured by the property and an assignment of leases and rents
and requires monthly payments of principal and interest of $413,210 (based on
annual interest of 7.9%) with remaining unpaid principal due on October 10,
2006.
Principal payments on the mortgage dated September 18, 1996 are due as
follows:
Year ending August 31:
1997 $ 594,500
1998 766,857

3. Related Party Transactions (continued)
During 1996, development fees of $220,000 were paid to an affiliate in
connection with certain renovations of the center.
4. Leases
The Partnership earns rental income under operating leases with retail
tenants. Leases generally provide for minimum rentals plus percentage rentals
based on the tenants' sales volume and also require each tenant to pay a
portion of real estate taxes and common area expenses. In addition, leases
provide for the tenants to pay utility charges to an affiliate. Lease periods
generally range from 10 to 20 years and contain various renewal options.
The Partnership also earns rental income under leases with commercial tenants
located in its office building. Such leases generally provide for the tenant
to pay minimum rentals plus a portion of increases in real estate taxes and
operating expenses. Commercial lease periods generally range from 3 to 5 years
and contain various renewal options.
The following is a schedule by year of future minimum rental payments on
noncancelable tenant operating leases as of August 31, 1996 and does not
include any amounts due as percentage rent or the exercise of renewal options
under existing leases:
Years ending August 31:
1997 $ 8,712,000

Exhibit 10.3
EMPLOYMENT EXTENSION AND SEPARATION AGREEMENT
Robert G. Rogers, having been a valued and trusted employee
and friend of the Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust ("PREIT") for 25
years, and having received notice of the termination of his employment
contract with PREIT effective September 30, 1997, and Mr. Rogers and PREIT
desiring to extend the employment relationship through December 31, 1997 on
new terms and to enter into a separation agreement, both parties hereby state
their agreement as follows:
1. Mr. Rogers' regular daily duties will conclude September
30, 1997, although he will continue employment at his current rate of pay,
benefits, and other compensation through December 31, 1997. During such
period, Mr. Rogers will be available on an "as needed" basis via phone, or
will come into the office at reasonable times should his presence be required
for meetings or other matters. Thereafter, Mr. Rogers will make himself
available for business consulting up to three times per month in the period
January 1, 1998 through March 31, 1998 for no additional compensation (though
with his reasonable expenses to be reimbursed by PREIT). For any business
consulting in excess of three times in a month during the January 1 through
March 31 period, and for any business consulting after March 31, 1998, Mr.
Rogers will be compensated at a rate of $750 per day or any part thereof. For
purposes of this Agreement, "business consulting" shall mean work rendered by
Mr. Rogers on the premises of PREIT or at another location away from his home
to which PREIT asks him to go; "business consulting" shall not include
occasional phone calls from PREIT to Mr. Rogers at his home.
It is also agreed that Mr. Rogers will arrange to be
available to meet with PREIT's attorneys and to submit to deposition in the
pending Berman and Tyson litigation involving PREIT at no additional
compensation (though with his reasonable expenses to be reimbursed by PREIT)
through December 31, 1999. For any litigation assistance rendered by Mr.
Rogers after 1999, and for any litigation assistance rendered by Mr. Rogers
after March 31, 1998 on matters not involving the Berman or Tyson litigation,
he will be compensated at a rate of $750 per day or any part thereof, provided
that he will not be paid for the same day for both litigation assistance and
business consulting.
For any business consulting or litigation assistance
rendered by Mr. Rogers after December 31, 1997, Mr. Rogers will be considered
an independent contractor of PREIT for such work.
2. In addition to the above compensation, PREIT shall
<PAGE>
pay to Mr. Rogers $50,000 on January 2, 1998 (with such payment to be
delivered or posted by Federal Express to a mailing address to be supplied),
and there shall be two additional payments of $25,000 each to be made in
similar fashion on or before December 26, 1998 and the second on or before
December 26, 1999. It is understood that payments referred to in this
paragraph are subject to normal income withholding taxes, but no other
deductions.
3. PREIT will promptly reimburse Mr. Rogers and his spouse,
Rinda, for the cost of maintaining medical insurance coverage for the balance
of their natural lives. The amount to be reimbursed will be the lesser of (i)
the cost of the actual medical insurance they purchase, or (ii) the sum of the
premium for Medicare Part B plus the premium for Plan J sponsored by the
American Association of Retired Persons (whether or not such plans are
actually purchased) as those premiums may be changed from time to time and
subject to the adjustments set forth below. (Mrs. Rogers is not presently
eligible for Medicare coverage.)
If Part B and/or Plan J are unavailable, the maximum monthly
amount to be reimbursed will be adjusted by multiplying the monthly cost on
the last date before such non-availability by a fraction, the numerator of
which shall be the Consumer Price Index, Medical Care Expenditure Class on the
date on which reimbursement is required and the denominator of which shall be
the same Index on the date before such nonavailability.
By way of example:
Medicare Part B Premium in December, 2000 $ 70
Plan J Premium in December, 2000 200
Total Monthly Maximum Reimbursement
Per Person 270
Times two 540
The Plans are discontinued in December, 2000; what is the
Maximum Reimbursement for January, 2002?
Consumer Price Index, Medical Care Expenditure
Class (denominator): 125 in December 2000
Consumer Price Index, Medical Care Expenditure
Class, December, 2001 (numerator): 130
Maximum Monthly Reimbursement January, 2002 =
$561.60 ($540 x 130/125)
In December, 2002, the Consumer Price Index,
<PAGE>
Medical Care Expenditure Class, increases
to 135. In January, 2003 the Maximum
Reimbursement would become $583.20 ($540 x 135/125).
The reimbursements shall be made in monthly payments, the
first of which will be on January 15th, 1998 and will continue until
notification by Mr. Rogers of any changes required. Upon the death of Mr.
Rogers or his spouse, the reimbursement described above shall be reduced
accordingly. The reimbursement shall end with the month in which occurs the
death of the surviving spouse.
4. PREIT hereby agrees to vest immediately all options which
have previously been granted to Mr. Rogers by PREIT and have not yet vested,
and to extend the period for exercise of all such options that have not as of
this date been exercised, regardless of their nature or classification,
including those issued pursuant to the PREIT 1990 Incentive and Nonqualified
Stock Option Plan, as amended and restated in 1997; provided, that the
shareholders of PREIT approve such amendment and restatement. Mr. Rogers, or
his estate in the event of his death, may exercise such options, at the
purchase price described at the time of their grant, on or before June 30,
2000.
The options referred to herein shall include 9,500 referred
to in correspondence from PREIT dated January 18, 1991 (3,000 options of the
12,500 referred to in that correspondence having previously been exercised),
12,500 options referred to in correspondence dated December 16, 1992, 15,000
options referred to in correspondence dated December 15, 1993, 10,000 options
referred to in correspondence dated December 22, 1994, and 5,000 options
referred to in correspondence dated January 3, 1996. This listing is not
intended to exclude any options issued, but not listed herein.
5. It is acknowledged and agreed that PREIT will take no
action to prevent the trustees of the rabbi trust associated with Mr. Rogers'
supplemental retirement plan from making the distributions as required and
intended heretofore during the existence of PREIT, provided that PREIT does
not become "Insolvent" (as defined in the applicable trust agreement).
6. Beginning on or after January 2, 1998, Mr. Rogers shall
be free to work in an enterprise for himself or with or for others of any
nature whatsoever and by way of example such endeavors may include investment
in real estate.
7. Based upon the consideration described above, both
parties waive and release the other, their shareholders, directors, trustees,
agents, successors and assigns (the "Released Parties") from all claims,
actions, suits and grievances and restrictions, whether known or unknown, from
the beginning of the world to the
<PAGE>
date of this agreement, including, without limitation of the foregoing general
release, any and all claims against the Released Parties related to Mr.
Rogers' employment by PREIT to date, and any and all claims arising from any
alleged violation to date by the Released Parties of the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act (the "ADEA"), 29 U.S.C. ss.621 et seq., claims arising to date
from any alleged violation by the Released Parties of the Pennsylvania Human
Relations Act, 43 P.S. ss.951, et seq., and claims arising to date from any
other federal, state, or local statutes, ordinances, or common law principles
(collectively, the "Employment Claims"). Nothing in this Agreement is intended
to, nor shall it be deemed to, constitute a waiver or release of any claim
under the ADEA arising after this Agreement is executed by Mr. Rogers.
However, Mr. Rogers agrees that, prior to the payment of the amounts described
in Paragraph 2 above and as consideration for such payment, he will enter into
a separate release, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, in
which he will discharge the Released Parties from any and all Employment
Claims against the Released Parties related to his employment by PREIT or the
termination of such relationship. PREIT will not pay the amounts described in
Paragraph 2 above unless Mr. Rogers enters into such a separate release.
8. All persons dealing with PREIT must look solely to PREIT
property for the enforcement of any claims against PREIT, as neither the
Trustees, officers, agents or shareholders of PREIT assume any personal
liability for obligations entered into by PREIT by reason of their status as
said Trustee, officer, agent or shareholder.
9. Mr. Rogers shall not at any time (other than in the good
faith performance of his services to PREIT) disclose to anyone other than
employees of PREIT or its affiliates (the "Companies") any trade secrets or
other information confidential to the business of the Companies.
10. Any breach of this agreement shall be resolved by
arbitration before a single arbitrator selected from one panel of 11
arbitrators supplied by the American Arbitration Association. If the parties
do not mutually agree to an arbitrator from the panel, the parties shall each
list arbitrators in order of preference and the Association shall designate
the arbitrator highest on both parties listing preference. If one party fails
to timely submit a preference, the Association shall designate an arbitrator
from the sole party submitting a listing of order of preference. An arbitrator
shall be selected within 30 days of request for arbitration to the AAA, and a
hearing shall be held at the earliest possible date available to the
arbitrator (although with at least two weeks' notice) regardless of the then
existing schedules of the parties. The award of the arbitrator will be final
and binding and the cost of the arbitrator shall be paid by the losing party.

Exhibit 10.17
AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT
This Agreement is made as of the 1st day of January, 1997,
between Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust ("PREIT") and Jeffrey
A. Linn ("Employee").
Background of Agreement
Employee has, for many years, served PREIT faithfully as a
Vice President or Senior Vice President-Acquisitions and is acknowledged as
having been instrumental in the growth and success of PREIT. PREIT desires
that Employee continue to serve in his current or in another executive
capacity, and Employee desires to continue to so serve. The parties are
entering into this Agreement to amend and restate in its entirety the
Employment Agreement between the parties dated as of October 1, 1985, as
extended (the "Original Agreement"), and to provide for the relationships and
obligations of each of the parties hereto with respect to the employment of
Employee.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto, intending to be legally
bound hereby and in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained,
agree as follows:
1. Employment. PREIT hereby employs the Employee, and the
Employee hereby accepts employment, upon the terms and conditions set forth
herein.
<PAGE>
2. Duties. Employee shall serve PREIT in the position of
Senior Vice President-Acquisitions or in such other executive capacity as
shall be determined by the Board of Trustees and as shall be consistent with
Employee's skills and experience. Employee shall devote his time, attention
and best efforts to the performance of his duties hereunder and shall not,
during the term of his employment, be engaged in any other business activity
(whether or not such business activity is pursued for gain, profit or other
pecuniary advantage) that would interfere with the services to be rendered by
Employee hereunder. However, this provision shall not prevent Employee from
investing his assets in such form or manner as will not require any service on
his part in connection with such investments.
3. Term. The term of employment hereunder shall commence on
the date first set forth above and shall continue for an initial term expiring
December 31, 1999. The initial or any additional term of employment shall be
automatically extended for an additional term of one year unless either party
gives the other not less than one hundred eighty (180) days notice prior to
the expiration of the then current term of its or his intention not to extend
the term of such employment. If such notice is given, the term of employment
shall terminate at the end of the then current term.
4. Basic Compensation. PREIT agrees to pay and Employee
agrees to accept, as the basic compensation for all services to be rendered by
Employee hereunder, the sum of $136,500 per annum, payable
<PAGE>
in approximately equal weekly, bi-monthly or monthly installments. The Board
of Trustees of PREIT (or any Committee of the Board thereunto authorized), in
its sole discretion, may increase (but not decrease) the annual basic
compensation payable hereunder at any time or times during the term hereof.
5. Working Facilities and Expenses. PREIT shall furnish
Employee with appropriate office space, stenographic help and other facilities
and services suitable to his employment hereunder and adequate for the
performance of his duties. PREIT shall also pay directly or reimburse to
Employee all business-related expenses incurred in the course of his duties
hereunder.
6. Termination of Employment. In addition to the provisions
contained in Section 2 hereof, PREIT shall have the right to terminate the
term of employment pursuant to the provisions of Sections 6.1 and 6.2 hereof
and the term of employment shall end upon the occurrence described in Section
6.3 hereof:
6.1 Upon thirty (30) days written notice for "good
cause." The term "good cause" shall mean (i) dishonesty; (ii) conduct on the
part of Employee intended to injure the business of PREIT; (iii) Employee's
(a) indictment for a crime involving moral turpitude relating to his
employment or (b) conviction for a crime involving moral turpitude not
involving employment, whether or not an appeal shall be pending; (iv)
insobriety repeated after notice; or (v) a material
<PAGE>
failure of Employee to perform or observe the provisions of this Agreement
(other than by reason of illness or incapacity) which persists for an
unreasonable period of time after notice is given to Employee which details
the failure.
6.2 By complying with the provisions of Section 7 hereof.
6.3 Upon the death of Employee.
7. Disability.
7.1 Effect of Disability. In the event that during the
term of employment Employee shall become disabled so that he is unable to
perform his duties hereunder, the compensation herein provided shall continue
to be paid until PREIT exercises its right of termination set forth herein.
Should the disability continue for more than six (6) consecutive months or
should such disability exist for more than nine (9) months in any twelve (12)
month period, PREIT shall have the right to terminate the term of employment,
without further liability to pay compensation hereunder, by giving Employee
thirty (30) days notice of its intention to do so. If Employee shall resume
his duties within thirty (30) days after such notice is given and shall
perform such duties on a regular basis for three (3) consecutive months
thereafter, the term of employment shall continue in full force and effect and
the notice of intention to terminate shall have no further force or
<PAGE>
validity; otherwise the term of employment shall terminate at the end of such
thirty (30) day period or, if applicable, upon the recurrence of disability
during the three (3) month period.
7.2 Determination of Disability. Employee shall be deemed
disabled for purposes of this Agreement either (i) if he is deemed disabled
for purposes of any disability policy, group or individual, paid for by PREIT
and at the time in effect, or (ii) if no such policy is then in effect, by an
independent referee licensed to practice medicine selected by the Board of
Trustees of PREIT and approved by Employee or in the event that PREIT and
Employee are unable to agree on a single referee, then by a panel of three (3)
independent referees licensed to practice medicine, one of whom shall be
selected by PREIT, one by Employee and a third by the other two (2) referees.
7.3 Clarification. Employee shall not be entitled to the
benefits of Sections 7.1 and 7.2 hereof if he should become disabled after his
employment has been terminated pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.1
hereof.
8. Rights and Obligations on Termination and Expiration.
8.1 In the event that PREIT terminates Employee's
employment hereunder without cause, PREIT shall pay to Employee within thirty
(30) days of such termination (a) the sum, if any, required under clause (a)
of the second sentence of Section 9.1 hereof plus (b) the
<PAGE>
amount obtained by multiplying Employee's annual basic compensation in effect
at the date of termination by the number of months (but not less than 12
months) in the remainder of the employment term hereunder at the date of
termination (which shall include any additional term resulting from a failure
to give timely notice of non-extension under Section 3 hereof) and dividing
the result by twelve (12). The resulting amount under (b) of the preceding
sentence shall then be discounted at the prime rate then prevailing at
CoreStates Bank, N.A. (or its successor), assuming that the resulting amount
had been paid out over the greater of the remainder of the employment period
and 12 months in accordance with PREIT's normal payroll practices at the time
of termination. The discounted value of Employee's basic compensation for 12
months shall be paid without regard to any obligation that Employee might
otherwise have to mitigate damages, and Employee shall not be required to seek
other employment to reduce the aforesaid amount; nor shall PREIT be entitled
to set-off against the amount aforesaid any sums earned by Employee in other
employment or to obtain reimbursement in respect of such amount out of such
earnings. It is, however, understood and agreed that any rights which Employee
may have in respect of compensation for the remainder of the term (including
any additional term referred to above), if any, in excess of twelve (12)
months from the date of termination shall be subject to such obligations to
mitigate damages as exist under applicable law. Moreover, Employee agrees
that, except in connection with the obligations in respect of annual basic
compensation herein described and obligations under other contracts and
applicable law, PREIT shall have no obligation to Employee as a consequence of
such
<PAGE>
wrongful termination.
8.2 In the event that, within eighteen (18) months of a
Change of Control of PREIT, PREIT or its successor shall give Employee notice
of its intention not to extend the term of Employee's employment under this
Agreement, PREIT shall pay to Employee within thirty (30) days of the
expiration date (a) the sum, if any, required under Section 9 hereof plus (b)
an amount equal to Employee's annual basic compensation in effect at
expiration, discounted at the prime rate then prevailing at CoreStates Bank,
N.A. (or its successor) assuming that the annual basic compensation had been
paid out over 12 months in accordance with PREIT's normal payroll practices at
the time of expiration. The discounted value of Employee's annual basic
compensation shall be paid without regard to any obligation that Employee
might otherwise have to mitigate damages, and Employee shall not be required
to seek other employment to reduce the aforesaid amount; nor shall PREIT be
entitled to set-off against the amount aforesaid any sums earned by Employee
in other employment or to obtain reimbursement in respect of such amount out
of such earnings.
8.3 All payments under this Section 8 or other provisions
hereof shall be subject to and reduced by any federal, state or local
withholding or similar tax required under applicable law.
8.4 The term "Change of Control" as used in Section 8.2
hereof shall have the meaning ascribed to such term under the
<PAGE>
Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust Amended Incentive and Non-
Qualified Stock Option Plan as constituted on the date hereof, a copy of
which definition is attached hereto.
9. Additional Benefits.
9.1 Employee shall be entitled to receive benefits
equivalent to those presently provided to him by PREIT and such additional
benefits as may be provided to a majority of the other executive employees of
PREIT, including, without limitation, contributions by PREIT on his behalf in
connection with the non-qualified deferred compensation plan (the "Plan")
maintained for executive officers of PREIT. In the event of the applicability
of either Section 8.1 or 8.2 hereof, Employee shall be entitled to receive (a)
at the time set forth in Section 8.1 or 8.2, as applicable, a sum, without
discount, equal to the amount of the contribution to the Plan accrued to the
date of termination or expiration but not paid plus the amount which would
have been contributed in respect of the period (12 months or, if applicable,
the remainder of the employment term) referred to in the first sentence of the
applicable Section and (b) reimbursement for a one year period following such
termination or expiration of payments required to be made by Employee to
maintain the health care coverage provided by PREIT to Employee and his family
at the time of termination. The good faith determination by the Chief
Executive Officer of PREIT of the sum to be paid to Employee pursuant to
clause (a) of the preceding sentence shall be conclusive in the absence of
<PAGE>
manifest error.
9.2 Employee acknowledges that he has received payment
net of applicable tax withholding for all unused vacation time to date and
that, hereafter, he shall be entitled to paid vacation and payment in respect
of unused vacation time in accordance with the policy of PREIT for executive
personnel as in effect from time to time during the term of his employment.
10. Trade Secrets; Confidential Information. In the event
that, during the course of his employment hereunder, Employee shall acquire
trade secrets or other information confidential to the business of PREIT,
Employee agrees not to disclose any such information, during or after his term
of employment, to any person, firm, corporation or other entity for any reason
whatsoever. Employee may disclose information if required to do so by order of
a court of competent jurisdiction or by a government agency acting under due
authority provided that Employee shall have given PREIT written notice of any
effort to compel such disclosure as promptly as possible and shall cooperate
with PREIT at PREIT's expense in all lawful ways requested by PREIT in
connection with any effort by PREIT to contest or restrict such disclosure.
11. Notices. Any notice required or permitted under this
Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given when
delivered personally or sent by registered or certified mail,
<PAGE>

12. Binding Effect. This Agreement and all of the terms
hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
and their respective heirs, successors, administrators and assigns.
13. Location of Employment. Employee's place of employment
shall be Philadelphia or elsewhere in Pennsylvania within a twenty (20) mile
radius of Philadelphia.
14. Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement
is held to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such invalidity or
unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision hereof, and this
Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such
<PAGE>
invalid or unenforceable term or provision (to the extent of the invalidity or
unenforceability) had not been contained herein.
15. Headings. The section headings in this Agreement are for
reference purposes only and shall not define, limit or affect the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement.
16. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
17. Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire
agreement and understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the
subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior negotiations, understandings
and agreements (including, without limitation, the Original Agreement), if
any, with respect to such subject matter and there are no agreements other
than those set forth, provided for, or referred to herein.
<PAGE>
18. Liability Limited to Trust's Property. Neither the
Trustees of PREIT nor its shareholders shall be held to any personal liability
hereunder, and Employee agrees to look only to the property of PREIT for
satisfaction of obligations hereunder.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement
as of the day and year first above written on this 16th day of April, 1997.
