Background
On April 22, 2003, the Trust, PREIT Associates, L.P., a Delaware
limited partnership (the "Operating Partnership"), the Holders and certain other
parties entered into that certain Contribution Agreement (the "Contribution
Agreement").
In connection with the execution of the Contribution Agreement, and as
contemplated thereby, on the date hereof, the Operating Partnership, the Holders
and certain other parties are also entering into that certain Call and Put
Option Agreement (the "Call-Put Agreement"). Pursuant to the Call-Put Agreement,
the Holders may acquire, on a subsequent date (the "Closing Date"), units of
Class A Limited Partner Interest ("Class A Units") in the Operating Partnership

under the terms and conditions of the First Amended and Restated Agreement of
Limited Partnership of the Operating Partnership dated as of September 30, 1997

Operating Partnership Agreement, a holder of Class A Units that has properly
tendered Class A Units for redemption has the right to receive cash or, at the
election of the Trust, shares of beneficial interest in the Trust, par value
$1.00 per share ("Shares").
As a condition of consummating the transactions contemplated by the
Contribution Agreement, the Holders have required that the Trust extend to them
certain registration rights in respect of the Shares that they may be entitled
to receive in connection with the redemption of the Applicable Units, all on the
terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.

REGISTRATION RIGHTS
Section 2.1 Registration of Registrable Securities.
(a) In the event that any Applicable Units are issued by the
Operating Partnership pursuant to the Call-Put Agreement, then the Trust shall
prepare and file with the SEC, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to
cause to become effective, within six months following the Closing Date, a
registration statement on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is not then available, on
such form of registration statement as is then available to effect a
registration of all of the Registrable Securities to be so registered) covering
the resale of all of the Shares issuable in connection with the redemption of
the Applicable Units issued to the Holders on the Closing Date.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.1,
but subject to Section 2.7(b), in the event that the Trust is required to
prepare and file a registration statement covering Registrable Securities
pursuant to paragraph (a) above, the Trust shall have the right, upon written
notice to the Holders, to defer the filing or effectiveness of such registration
statement for up to 90 days (the number of days of any such deferral being
hereinafter referred to as the "Registration Deferral Period") if (i) the Trust
is, at such time, working on an underwritten public offering of its securities
for the account of the Trust and is advised by its managing underwriter that
such offering would in its opinion be materially adversely affected by such a
filing; or (ii) the Trust determines reasonably and in good faith that the
filing or effectiveness of such a registration statement, or the offering of
Registrable Securities pursuant thereto, would require the disclosure of
material non-public information, the disclosure of which at such time could
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business or
affairs of the Trust or a material adverse effect on any proposal or plan by the
Trust or any of its subsidiaries to engage in any extraordinary engagement or
activity, including, without limitation, any material acquisition of assets or
any merger, consolidation, tender offer or similar transaction.
3
Section 2.2 Obligations of the Trust. Whenever required under Section
2.1 to effect the registration of any of the Registrable Securities, the Trust
shall, as expeditiously as reasonably possible:
(a) prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement with
respect to such Registrable Securities and use reasonable efforts to (i) cause
such registration statement to become effective in order to permit the sale of
the Registrable Securities by the Holders in accordance with the intended method
or methods of distribution thereof described in such registration statement and
(ii) maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement as to the
Registrable Securities covered thereby until the earlier of (A) the date on
which the Holders no longer hold any of the Registrable Securities covered
thereby or any of the Applicable Units to which the Registrable Securities
covered thereby relate, or (B) the date on which all of the Registrable
Securities included in such registration statement have ceased to constitute
Registrable Securities, after which the Trust may deregister such Registrable
Securities;
(b) prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements
to such registration statement and the prospectus used in connection with such
registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the
Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such
registration statement for the period set forth in paragraph (a) above;
(c) furnish to the Holders such number of copies of the
prospectus, including all amendments and supplements thereto, and such other
documents as they may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition
of Registrable Securities owned by them;
(d) comply in all material respects with the provisions of the
Securities Act applicable to the Trust with respect to the disposition of all of
the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement in accordance
with the intended method or methods of disposition by the Holders;
(e) use reasonable efforts to register and qualify the securities
covered by such registration statement under such other securities or blue sky
laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders;
provided, however, that the Trust shall not be required in connection therewith
or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent
to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions;
4
(f) (i) promptly notify the Holders, and, if requested, confirm
such notification in writing, (A) when a prospectus or any prospectus supplement
has been filed with the SEC and when the registration statement or any
post-effective amendment thereto has been filed with and declared effective by
the SEC, (B) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order or the coming to its
knowledge of the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, (C) of the
receipt by the Trust of any notification with respect to the suspension of the
qualification of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction
or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose, (D) of the
occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes to the
registration statement or related prospectus so that such documents will not
contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and
(E) of the Trust's determination that the filing of a post-effective amendment
to the registration statement shall be necessary or appropriate; and (ii) upon
the occurrence of any event of the kind described in clauses (B), (C) (but only
with respect to the jurisdiction suspending qualification), (D) or (E), above,
as promptly as practicable thereafter, take such action as shall be necessary to
remedy such event to permit the Holders to continue to offer and dispose of the
Registrable Securities, including, without limitation, preparing and filing with
the SEC and furnishing to the Holders a supplement or amendment to such
prospectus so that, as thereafter deliverable to the purchasers of the
Registrable Securities, such prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of
a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading;
(g) make available to the Holders and any attorney, accountant or
other agent or representative retained by the Holders (collectively, the
"Inspectors"), all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents
and properties of the Trust, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to
exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause the Trust's officers,
directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any
such Inspector in connection with such registration statement, subject, in each
case, to such confidentiality agreements as the Trust shall reasonably request;
(h) use reasonable efforts to cause the Registrable Securities
covered by such registration statement to be listed on the securities exchange
or quoted on the quotation system on which similar securities issued by the
Trust are then listed or quoted;
(i) otherwise use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the SEC and
any other regulatory agencies and take all reasonable actions and execute and
deliver or cause to be executed and delivered all documents reasonably necessary
to effect and maintain the effectiveness of the registration of any Registrable
Securities under this Agreement; and
(j) during the period when a prospectus is required to be
delivered under the Securities Act, promptly file all documents required to be
filed with the SEC pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act.
5
Section 2.3 Obligations of the Holder.
(a) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligation of the
Trust to register the Registrable Securities of any Holder pursuant to Section
2.1 that such Holder shall furnish to the Trust, upon request, such information
regarding itself, its Registrable Securities and the intended method of
disposition of such Registrable Securities as shall be reasonably required to
effect the registration of such Registrable Securities.
(b) Each Holder shall (i) offer to sell or otherwise distribute
the Registrable Securities in reliance upon a registration contemplated by this
Agreement only after a registration statement shall have been filed with the
SEC, (ii) sell or otherwise distribute the Registrable Securities in reliance
upon a registration only after a registration statement has been filed and
declared effective under the Securities Act, (iii) upon the receipt of any
notice from the Trust of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in
Section 2.2(f)(i)(B), (C) (but only with respect to the jurisdiction suspending
qualification), (D) or (E), forthwith discontinue any offer and disposition of
the Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement covering such
Registrable Securities until such time as the Trust shall have remedied such
event or prepared an appropriate amendment or supplement to the prospectus
covering such Registrable Securities and, if so directed by the Trust, deliver
to the Trust all copies of the defective prospectus covering such Registrable
Securities that are then in such Holder's possession or control, (iv) distribute
the Registrable Securities in reliance upon a registration contemplated by this
Agreement only in accordance with the manner of distribution contemplated by the
prospectus and (v) report to the Trust distributions made by such Holder of
Registrable Securities pursuant to the prospectus.
(c) During any period that a registration statement filed pursuant
to this Agreement shall remain effective, no Holder shall (i) effect any
stabilization transactions or engage in any stabilization activity in connection
with the Shares or other equity securities of the Trust in contravention of
Regulation M under the Exchange Act, or (ii) permit any "Affiliated Purchaser"
(as that term is defined in Regulation M under the Exchange Act) to bid for or
purchase for any account in which such Holder has a beneficial interest, or
attempt to induce any other person to purchase, any Shares or other equity
securities of the Trust in contravention of Regulation M under the Exchange Act.
(d) If the Trust is issuing or selling equity securities to the
public in an underwritten offering, and the managing underwriter or underwriters
for such underwritten offering so request, the Holders shall refrain from
effecting any public sale or distribution of Registrable Securities or any
securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such Registrable
Securities, including a sale pursuant to Rule 144 (or any similar provision then
in force) under the Securities Act, for a period commencing on the tenth (10th)
day prior to the date such underwritten offering commences (such offering being
deemed to commence for this purpose on the later of the effective date for the
registration statement for such offering or, if applicable, the date of the
prospectus supplement for such offering) and ending 90 days after such
underwritten offering commences; provided that all officers and directors of the
Trust and holders of at least five percent (5%) of the Trust's Shares enter into
similar agreements and subject to any concession (such as early release from
such lock-up) granted to any such officers, directors or holders.
6
Section 2.4 Expenses of Registration. Except as specifically provided
herein, all Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration
shall be borne by the Trust. All Selling Expenses incurred in connection with
any such registrations shall be borne by the Holders.
Section 2.5 Indemnification. With respect to Registrable Securities
that are included in a registration statement under Section 2.1:
(a) To the extent permitted by law, the Trust shall indemnify and
hold harmless the Holders, their respective Affiliates, partners, officers,
directors, stockholders and agents, and any other person who controls any of the
foregoing within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act
(collectively, the "Holder Indemnitees"), against any losses, claims, damages,
expenses, judgments or liabilities (joint or several) to which any Holder
Indemnitee may become subject, including any amount paid in settlement of any
litigation commenced or threatened (unless such settlement is effected without
the consent of the Trust, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and
shall promptly reimburse each Holder Indemnitee, as and when incurred, for any
legal or other expenses incurred by such Holder Indemnitee in connection with
investigating any claims and defending any actions, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages, expenses, judgments or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) shall arise out of or shall be based upon (i) any violation or alleged
violation by the Trust of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other
securities laws, relating to action taken or action or inaction required of the
Trust in connection with such offering, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement (or
in any final prospectus included therein) relating to the offering and sale of
the Registrable Securities, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or
in any document incorporated by reference therein, or (iii) any omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the indemnity
agreement contained in this Section 2.5(a)(ii) and (iii) shall not apply to a
Holder in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage,
expense, judgment, liability or action arises out of or is based upon any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement, or any omission or alleged omission, if
such statement or omission shall have been (A) made in reliance upon and in
conformity with information furnished to the Trust in writing by or on behalf of
such Holder Indemnitee for inclusion in such registration statement (including
any final prospectus contained therein), or any amendment thereof or supplement
thereto, or (B) made in any preliminary prospectus and the final prospectus
shall have corrected such statement or omission and a copy of such final
prospectus shall have been delivered to such Holder Indemnitee prior to the time
such final prospectus is required to be delivered by such Holder Indemnitee
under applicable law and such loss, claim, damage, expense, judgment, liability
or action arises out of such Holder's failure to deliver such final prospectus
in compliance with applicable law.
7
(b) To the extent permitted by law, each Holder shall indemnify
and hold harmless the Trust, each of its officers and trustees, each person, if
any, who controls the Trust within the meaning of the Securities Act or the
Exchange Act and any other Holder Indemnitee (collectively, the "Trust
Indemnitees"), against any losses, claims, damages, expenses, judgments or
liabilities (joint or several) to which any Trust Indemnitee may become subject,
including any amount paid in settlement of any litigation commenced or
threatened (unless such settlement is effected without the consent of such
Holder, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), and shall promptly
reimburse each Trust Indemnitee, as and when incurred, for any legal or other
expenses incurred by such Trust Indemnitee in connection with investigating any
claims and defending any actions, insofar as such losses, claims, damages,
expenses, judgments or liabilities (or actions in respect thereto) shall arise
out of or shall be based upon (i) any violation by such Holder of Section 5 of
the Securities Act in connection with such offering (other than as a result of
such a violation by the Trust or any other person other than such Holder), (ii)
any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in
the registration statement (or in any final prospectus included therein)
relating to the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities, or any
amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or in any document incorporated by
reference therein, or (iii) any omission or alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading; provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this
Section 2.5(b)(ii) and (iii) shall only apply in any such case (A) to the extent
that any such loss, claim, damage, expense, judgment, liability or action arises
out of or is based upon an untrue statement contained in, or a material fact
omitted from, information furnished to the Trust in writing by or on behalf of
such Holder for inclusion in the registration statement (or in any final
prospectus included therein), and (B) if any such untrue statement or material
omission is incorporated by the Trust in any preliminary prospectus, to the
extent that such statement or omission shall not have been corrected in writing
by or on behalf of such Holder prior to the time the final prospectus is
required to be delivered by the Trust under applicable law.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 2.5 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any
governmental action), such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect
thereof is to be made against any indemnifying party under this Section 2.5,
deliver to the indemnifying party a written notice of the commencement thereof
and the indemnifying party shall have the right to participate in, and, to the
extent the indemnifying party so desires, jointly with any other indemnifying
party similarly noticed, to assume the defense thereof with counsel mutually
satisfactory to the parties; provided, however, that an indemnified party shall
have the right to retain one separate counsel, with the fees and expenses to be
paid by the indemnifying party, if representation of such indemnified party by
the counsel retained by the indemnifying party would be inappropriate due to
actual or potential differing interests between such indemnified party and any
other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. The failure to
deliver written notice to the indemnifying party within a reasonable time of the
commencement of any such action, if materially prejudicial to its ability to
defend such action, shall relieve such indemnifying party of any liability to
the indemnified party under this Section 2.5 to the extent of such prejudice,
but the omission so to deliver written notice to the indemnifying party will not
relieve it of any liability that it may have to any indemnified party otherwise
than under this Section 2.5.
8
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 2.5 is
held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unavailable to an indemnified
party with respect to any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to
herein, the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party
thereunder, shall to the extent permitted by applicable law contribute to the
amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss,
claim, damage or liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative fault of the indemnifying party on the one hand and of the indemnified
party on the other in connection with the circumstances that resulted in such
loss, claim, damage or liability, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and of the
indemnified party shall be determined by a court of law by reference to, among
other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
or the omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
indemnifying party or by the indemnified party and the parties' relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
statement or omission.
(e) The obligations of the Trust and the Holders under this
Section 2.5 shall survive completion of any offering of Registrable Securities
in a registration statement and the termination of this Agreement. No
indemnifying party, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall,
except with the consent of each indemnified party, consent to entry of any
judgment or enter into any settlement which does not include as an unconditional
term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party
of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
Section 2.6 Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights to cause the
Trust to register Registrable Securities pursuant to this Article II may be
assigned by a Holder to a transferee or assignee of Registrable Securities or
Applicable Units that (a) is an Affiliate of such Holder, or (b) is a member of
such Holder's immediate family or is a trust for the benefit of such Holder or a
member of such Holder's immediate family; provided, however, that (i) within ten
days after such transfer, the transferring Holder furnishes to the Trust written
notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the securities
with respect to which such registration rights are being assigned, and (ii) such
transferee agrees to be subject to all restrictions set forth in this Agreement.
Section 2.7 Information Blackout.
(a) At any time when a registration statement covering Registrable
Securities is effective, upon written notice from the Trust to the Holders that
the Trust has determined reasonably and in good faith that the sale of
Registrable Securities pursuant to the registration statement would require
disclosure of material non-public information, the disclosure of which at such
time could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the
business or affairs of the Trust or a material adverse effect on any proposal or
plan by the Trust or any of its subsidiaries to engage in any extraordinary
engagement or activity, including, without limitation, any material acquisition
of assets or any merger, consolidation, tender offer or similar transaction, the
Holders shall suspend sales of the Registrable Securities pursuant to the
registration statement until the earlier of (i) 45 days after the Trust notifies
the Holders of such good faith determination, or (ii) such time as the Trust
notifies the Holders that such material information has been disclosed to the
public or has ceased to be material or that sales pursuant to the registration
statement may otherwise be resumed (the number of days from such suspension of
sales by the Holders until the day when such sales may be resumed hereunder
being hereinafter referred to as the "Sales Blackout Period").
9
(b) In no event shall the Trust be permitted to impose
Registration Deferral Periods or Sales Blackout Periods that, collectively,
extend for more than 90 days in any given 12 month period.
Section 2.8 Rule 144 Reporting. With a view to making available to the
Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations under the Securities Act
that may at any time permit the sale of the Registrable Shares to the public
without registration, at all times that the Trust is subject to the reporting
requirements of the Exchange Act, the Trust shall use its reasonable efforts to:
(a) make and keep public information available, as those terms are
understood and defined in Rule 144;
(b) file with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other
documents required of the Trust under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;
and
(c) so long as a Holder owns any Registrable Securities (or
Applicable Units), furnish to such Holder forthwith upon request (i) a written
statement by the Trust as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of
Rule 144 and of the Exchange Act, (ii) a copy of the most recent annual or
quarterly report of the Trust, and (iii) such other reports and documents of the
Trust as a Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or
regulation of the SEC allowing such Holder to sell any such securities without
registration.
ARTICLE III
MISCELLANEOUS
Section 3.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in
accordance with and governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
(without giving effect to any conflicts or choice of law provisions that would
cause the application of the domestic substantive laws of any other
jurisdiction). None of the parties hereto has agreed with or represented to any
other party that the provisions of this section will not be fully enforced in
all instances.

all other remedies. Said rights and remedies are given in addition to any other
rights the parties may have by law, statute, ordinance or otherwise. Except
where a time period is specified, no delay on the part of any party in the
exercise of any right, power, privilege or remedy hereunder shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any exercise or partial exercise of any such right,

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust may amend Exhibit A hereto to reflect
dispositions of Registrable Securities by Holders (including the addition of new
Holders as a result of any permitted assignment of the rights granted hereunder
in accordance with Section 2.6) without obtaining the written consent of the
Holders. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this
