Issuable upon Exchange of PREIT Associates, L.P.

This prospectus supplement no. 13 supplements the prospectus dated July 16, 2007, as previously supplemented, that is included within the registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 16, 2007 relating to the resale from time to time by certain selling shareholders of the common shares of beneficial interest that we may issue under certain circumstances upon the exchange or redemption of the 4.00% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2012 issued by our operating partnership, PREIT Associates, L.P.

This prospectus supplement should be read in conjunction with and accompanied by, and is qualified by reference to, the prospectus, except to the extent that the information in this prospectus supplement supersedes any information contained in the prospectus. Additional selling shareholders may be named in future additional prospectus supplements.

The inclusion of the common shares listed in this prospectus supplement does not necessarily mean that any of the selling shareholders will exchange their notes for our common shares, that upon any exchange or redemption of the notes we will elect, in our sole and absolute discretion, to exchange or redeem some or all of the notes for our common shares rather than cash, or that any of our common shares received upon exchange or redemption of the notes will be offered or sold by the selling shareholders.

We will receive no proceeds from any issuance of our common shares to the selling shareholders or from any sale of such shares by the selling shareholders, but we have agreed to pay certain registration expenses relating to such common shares. The selling shareholders from time to time may offer and sell the shares held by them directly or through agents or broker-dealers on terms to be determined at the time of sale, as described in more detail in the prospectus.

The information appearing in the table below should be considered, to the extent such information relates to a selling shareholder listed in the prospectus as previously supplemented, as superceding the information appearing under the heading “Selling Shareholders” in the prospectus as previously supplemented. The information is based solely on information provided to us by or on behalf of the selling shareholders on or prior to May 19, 2010 in Selling Security Holder Notices and Questionnaires.


The selling shareholders listed below, including their transferees, pledgees or donees or their successors, may from time to time offer and sell pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the prospectus any or all of the common shares which we may issue upon the exchange or redemption of the notes.

The number of common shares issuable upon the exchange or redemption of the notes that is shown in the table below assumes exchange of the full amount of notes held by each selling shareholder at the maximum exchange rate of 21.9635 common shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes and a cash payment in lieu of any fractional share. This exchange rate is subject to adjustment in certain events. Accordingly, the number of common shares issued upon the exchange or redemption of the notes may increase or decrease from time to time. The number of common shares owned by the selling shareholders or any future transferee from any such holder assumes that they do not beneficially own any common shares other than the common shares that we may issue to them upon the exchange or redemption of the notes. In addition, since the date on which they provided the information regarding their notes, the selling shareholders listed below might have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their notes or common shares in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

Based upon information provided by the selling shareholders, neither the selling shareholders set forth below nor any of their affiliates, officers, directors or principal equity holders has held any position or office or has had any material relationship with us within the past three years.

To the extent that any selling shareholder identified below is a broker-dealer, it may be deemed to be, under interpretations of the staff of the SEC, an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. To our knowledge, except as described below, each selling shareholder has sole voting and investment power with respect to all of the common shares shown as beneficially owned by it.
