[Reverse of Security]

FEDERAL REALTY INVESTMENT TRUST

3.50% Note due 2030

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of September 1, 1998 (herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect to the series of which this Note is a part), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the duly authorized series of Securities designated as “3.50% Notes due 2030” (collectively, the “Notes”), and the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be issued under such series is limited to $400,000,000 as of the date hereof (except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of other Notes). The Company may, without the consent of the Holders of any Securities, create and issue additional notes in the future having the same terms other than the date of original issuance, the issue price and the date on which interest begins to accrue so as to form a single series with the Notes. The Notes are the unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Company and rank equally with all existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company. All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

If an Event of Default, as defined herein, shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

As used herein:

“Event of Default” means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether or not it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(1) default in the payment of any interest upon or any Additional Amounts payable in respect of the Notes when such interest or Additional Amounts becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days;

(2) default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) the Notes when it becomes due and payable at its Maturity;

(3) default in the deposit of any sinking fund payment, when and as due by the terms of the Notes;

(4) default in the performance, or a breach, of any covenant or agreement by the Company under the Indenture (other than a covenant or agreement a default in whose performance or whose breach is elsewhere in this definition of Event of Default specifically dealt with), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” under the Indenture;

(5) default under any bond, debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company (including obligations under leases required to be reflected on the balance sheet of the lessee as financing lease liabilities under generally accepted accounting principles but not including any indebtedness or obligations for which recourse is limited to one or more properties) in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $50,000,000 or under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any indebtedness for money borrowed by the Company (including such leases but not including such indebtedness or obligations for which recourse is limited to one or more properties) in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $50,000,000 by the Company, whether such indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created, which default shall have resulted in such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable or such obligations being accelerated, without such acceleration having been rescinded or annulled;

(6) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that:

(a) is for relief against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in an involuntary case,

(b) appoints a Custodian of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary or for all or substantially all of either of its property, or

(c) orders the liquidation of the Company or any Significant Subsidiary, and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 90 days; or

(7) the Company or any Significant Subsidiary pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(a) commences a voluntary case or proceeding,

(b) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case or proceeding,

(c) consents to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, or

(d) makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors.

5

The defeasance and covenant defeasance provisions of the Indenture apply to the Notes. The Notes will not be entitled to the benefits of any sinking fund.

The Notes are subject to redemption at any time, in whole or in part, at the election of the Company, at a redemption price equal to (x) if the Notes are redeemed before March 1, 2030 (the “Par Call Date”), the sum of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon up to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, and (2) the Make-Whole Amount or (y) if the Notes are redeemed on or after the Par Call Date, 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest on this Note whose Stated Maturity Date is on or prior to such Redemption Date will be payable to the Holder of this Note, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates referred to on the face hereof, all as provided in the Indenture.

As used herein:

“Make-Whole Amount” means, in connection with any redemption of the Notes, the excess, if any, of (x) the aggregate present value as of the Redemption Date of each dollar of principal being redeemed and the amount of interest, calculated by the Company, excluding interest accrued to the Redemption Date, that would have been payable in respect of such dollar if such redemption had been made on the Par Call Date, determined by discounting, on a semi-annual basis, such principal and interest at the Reinvestment Rate, determined on the third Business Day preceding the date notice of such redemption is given, from the respective dates on which the principal and interest would have been payable if such redemption had been made on the Par Call Date, over the aggregate principal amount of the Notes being redeemed.

“Reinvestment Rate” means a rate per annum equal to the sum of forty-five basis points (0.45%) plus the yield on treasury securities at constant maturity under the heading “Week Ending” published in the Statistical Release under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities” for the maturity (rounded to the nearest month) corresponding to the remaining life to maturity of the Notes (which maturity shall be deemed to be the Par Call Date) as of the payment date of the principal being redeemed. If no maturity exactly corresponds to such maturity, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to such maturity shall be calculated pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and the Reinvestment Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis, rounding in each of such relevant periods to the nearest month. For purposes of calculating the Reinvestment Rate, the most recent Statistical Release published prior to the date of determination of the Make-Whole Amount shall be used. If the format or content of the Statistical Release changes in a manner that precludes determination of the yield on treasury in the above manner, then the yield on treasury will be determined in the manner that most closely approximates the above manner, as the Company reasonably determines.

6

“Statistical Release” means the statistical release designated “Selected Interest Rates (Daily)—H.15” or any successor publication which is published by the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States government securities adjusted to constant maturities or, if such statistical release is not published at the time of any determination under the Indenture, then any publicly available source of similar market data used for this purpose in accordance with customary market practice which the Company shall designate.

Notice of any redemption of the Notes will be given by mail to Holders of Securities, not less than 15 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, all as provided in the Indenture.

In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of all Securities issued under the Indenture at the time Outstanding and affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, on behalf of the Holders of all such Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture permit the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount, in certain instances, of the Outstanding Securities of any series to waive, on behalf of all of the Holders of Securities of such series, certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and other Notes issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt (as defined below) if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles is greater than 60% of the sum of (without duplication) (i) Total Assets as of the end of the calendar quarter covered in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (or, if such filing is not permitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Debt and (ii) the purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), by the Company or any Subsidiary since the end of such calendar quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection with the incurrence of such additional Debt.

7

In addition to the foregoing limitation on the incurrence of Debt, the Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt secured by any mortgage, lien, charge, pledge, encumbrance or security interest of any kind upon any property of the Company or any Subsidiary if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt and the application of the proceeds thereof, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis which is secured by any mortgage, lien, charge, pledge, encumbrance or security interest on property of the Company or any Subsidiary is greater than 40% of the sum of (without duplication) (1) Total Assets as of the end of the calendar quarter covered in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (or, if such filing is not permitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Debt and (2) the purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), by the Company or any Subsidiary since the end of such calendar quarter, including those proceeds obtained in connection with the incurrence of such additional Debt; provided, however, that for purposes of this limitation, the amount of obligations under capital leases shown as a liability on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet shall be deducted from Debt and from Total Assets.

Furthermore, the Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt if the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service (as defined below) to the Annual Debt Service Charge (as defined below) for the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which such additional Debt is to be incurred shall have been less than 1.5 to 1, on an unaudited pro forma basis after giving effect thereto and to the application of the proceeds therefrom, and calculated on the assumption that: (i) such Debt and any other Debt incurred by the Company and its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period and the application of the proceeds therefrom, including to refinance other Debt, had occurred at the beginning of such period; (ii) the repayment or retirement of any other Debt by the Company and its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period had been repaid or retired at the beginning of such period (except that, in making such computation, the amount of Debt under any revolving credit facility shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Debt during such period); (iii) in the case of Acquired Debt or Debt incurred in connection with any acquisition since the first day of such four-quarter period, the related acquisition had occurred as of the first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition being included in such unaudited pro forma calculation; and (iv) in the case of any acquisition or disposition by the Company or its Subsidiaries of any asset or group of assets since the first day of such four-quarter period, whether by merger, stock purchase or sale, or asset purchase or sale, such acquisition or disposition or any related repayment of Debt had occurred as of the first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition or disposition being included in such unaudited pro forma calculation.

8

Furthermore, the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole, will, at all times maintain an Unencumbered Total Asset Value (as defined below) in an amount not less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the unsecured Debt of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.
