(1) The derivative securities are units of Class A Limited Partnership Interest (the "Units") in PREIT Associates, L.P., the operating partnership of the issuer. The Units are generally redeemable for cash equal to the contemporaneous market price of shares of beneficial interest in the issuer or, at the election of the issuer, for a like number of shares of beneficial interest in the issuer, without payment of any conversion or exercise price. These derivative securities are currently redeemable, except that 19 Units are redeemable beginning 9/15/2011. The Units have no expiration date.

(3) These Units were held by a GRAT for the benefit of the reporting person's spouse. The reporting person serves as the trustee.
(4) The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares held by his spouse, and this report should not be deemed to be an admission that the reporting person is the beneficial owner of his spouse's shares for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or for any other purpose.
