Such Base Units shall be subject to the adjustments described in Section 8 hereof. Each Award Agreement, and the Shares which may be delivered thereunder, are subject to the terms of this Program and the terms of the Plan.

4. Performance Goal; Delivery of Shares

(a) If, for the Measurement Period, the Trust’s performance, based on its “TRS” (as defined below), equals or exceeds the “Threshold” (as defined below), then the Trust shall deliver to each Participant the number of Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares) determined by first multiplying the whole percentile (expressed as a percentage equal to the percentile rounded up for fractions of one-half or greater) at which the Trust’s TRS for the Measurement Period places the Trust among the component members of the “MSCI US REIT Index” (as defined below) for the Measurement Period, each ranked pursuant to such TRS, by two, and then multiplying that product by the Participant’s Base Units; provided, however, that the number of Shares that may be delivered shall not exceed 150% of the Participant’s Base Units. Shares will be delivered under the Program to the extent that Shares remain available under the Plan. If the total number of Shares to be delivered exceeds the number of Shares available under the Plan, then the number of Shares for each Participant will be reduced on a pro rata basis based on each individual Participant’s Base Units as compared to the total of all Participants’ Base Units, each determined as of the last day of the Measurement Period. If, for the Measurement Period, the Trust’s performance, based on its TRS, does not equal or exceed the Threshold, the Trust shall not deliver any Shares to the Participants. Also, except as provided in subsection (c) below, a Participant must be employed by an Employer on the last day of the Measurement Period in order to receive any Shares under this Program. See Appendix A attached hereto for examples illustrating the operation of this Section.

(b) Definitions for this Section. The following terms shall be defined as set forth below:

(1) “MSCI US REIT Index” means the MSCI US REIT Index’s gross index (as it may be renamed from time to time) or, in the event such index shall cease to be published, such other index as the Committee shall determine to be comparable thereto.

(2) “Share Value” means, as applicable and except as provided in the following sentence, the average of the closing prices of one Share on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) (or, if not then listed on the NYSE, on the principal market or quotation system on which then traded) for: (i) the 20 days on which Shares were traded prior to the Effective Date (for the value of a Share on the Effective Date); (ii) the 20 days on which Shares were traded prior to and including the last day of the Measurement Period (for the value of a Share on the last day of the Measurement Period); or (iii) the 20 days on which the Shares were traded prior to and including the applicable dividend payment date (for the “purchase” of additional RSUs under subsection (e) below). In the event of a Business Combination approved by the shareholders of the Trust on or prior to December 31, 2015, Share Value shall mean the final price per Share agreed upon by the parties to the Business Combination.

(3) “Threshold” means the 25^th percentile among the component members (including the Trust) of the MSCI US REIT Index at the end of the Measurement Period (ranked based upon each such member’s TRS for the Measurement Period).

4

(4) “TRS” means total return to shareholders, as calculated by the Committee or its designee, for the Measurement Period for the Trust and for the other component members of the MSCI US REIT Index. “Component members” means those entities used for purposes of compiling the MSCI US REIT Index as of the first day of the Measurement Period and that remain publicly held companies as of the last day of the Measurement Period, whether or not they are still included in the MSCI US REIT Index on such last day.

(c) Termination of Employment. Upon a Participant’s termination of employment on or prior to the last day of the Measurement Period, the following shall occur:

(1) Termination without Cause, for Good Reason, or on Account of Disability or Death. If, on or prior to the last day of the Measurement Period, (i) the Participant terminates his or her employment with the Employer for Good Reason, (ii) the Employer terminates the Participant’s employment for reasons other than for Cause, (iii) the Participant incurs a Disability Termination, or (iv) the Participant dies, the Participant (or the Participant’s beneficiary(ies), if applicable) shall be eligible to receive Shares under the Program (or not) as though the Participant had remained employed by the Employer through the end of the Measurement Period.

(2) Termination for Any Other Reason. If, on or prior to the last day of the Measurement Period, the Participant’s employment with the Employer terminates for any reason other than a reason described in paragraph (1) above, the Participant shall forfeit all of the Base Units (and all of the Shares that may have become deliverable with respect to such Base Units) subject to the RSUs the Participant was granted under the Program.

(d) Determination of Performance; Share Delivery. Within 30 days after the end of the Measurement Period, the Committee shall provide each Participant with a written determination of whether the Trust did or did not attain the Corporate Goal for the Measurement Period (and, if applicable, the extent to which the Corporate Goal was attained) and the calculations used to make such determination. If Shares are to be delivered under the Program, they shall be delivered to Participants within 60 days following the end of the Measurement Period, unless the Measurement Period ends as a result of a Change in Control, in which case the Shares will be delivered to the Participants within five days following the end of the Measurement Period.

(e) DERs. Participants shall be awarded DERs with respect to their number of Base Units. Each DER will be expressed as a specific dollar amount (the “Dollar Amount”) equal to the dollar amount of the dividend paid on an actual Share on a specific date (the “Dividend Date”) multiplied by the Participant’s number of Base Units. Until the end of the Measurement Period, the Committee will apply the Dollar Amount to “purchase” a number of additional RSUs equal to the Dollar Amount divided by the Share Value. The delivery of Shares in respect of such additional RSUs shall also be subject to the attainment of the Corporate Goal set forth in subsection (a) above. DERs shall also be awarded on such additional RSUs and applied in the same manner (thereby increasing the Participant’s Base Units on a cumulative basis). RSUs deemed purchased with DERs hereunder may be whole or fractional units.

Participants who make a deferral election under subsection (f) below shall also be awarded DERs under the Plan with respect to their deferred Shares. Each such DER will be expressed as a Dollar Amount equal to the dollar amount of the dividend paid on an actual Share

5

on a Dividend Date during the deferral period multiplied by the number of Shares still deferred by the Participant as of the Dividend Date. The Committee will apply the Dollar Amount to “purchase” notional shares (on which DERs thereafter will also be awarded and applied in the same manner) at the closing price of a Share on the Dividend Date. Notional shares deemed purchased with DERs hereunder may be whole or fractional shares. DERs expressed as a Dollar Amount will continue to be applied to “purchase” notional shares on Dividend Dates until all of the Participant’s deferred Shares are delivered to the Participant (or to his or her beneficiary(ies), if applicable), as elected in his or her deferral election agreement. A Participant’s notional shares “purchased” with DERs awarded with respect to his or her deferred Shares shall be 100% vested at all times.

The Trust shall establish a bookkeeping account (the “DER Account”) for each such Participant and credit to such account the number of whole and fractional additional RSUs and notional shares deemed purchased with the Dollar Amounts. The Participant’s additional RSUs and notional shares shall be subject to the adjustments described in Section 8 hereof. All whole additional RSUs (for which Shares become deliverable under this Section) and whole notional shares credited to a Participant’s DER Account shall be replaced by issued Shares on a one-to-one basis on the delivery date referred to in subsection (d) above, and the fractional additional RSUs (for which Shares become deliverable under this Section) and fractional notional shares credited to a Participant’s DER Account shall be aggregated and replaced by issued Shares (and with cash in lieu of a fractional Share) based on the closing price of a Share on the replacement date, and delivered to the Participant (or to his or her beneficiary(ies), if applicable) on the date the associated Shares are delivered to the Participant.

(f) Elective Deferrals. Except in the event of delivery on account of a Change in Control, if Shares are to be delivered under the Program, a Participant may elect to defer delivery (and the Trust shall defer issuance) of all or a portion of the Shares until, as specified in the Participant’s deferral election agreement, (i) the Participant’s separation from service from the Trust’s controlled group of entities and/or (ii) a date chosen by the Participant. The Participant may also elect in the deferral election agreement to receive Shares upon the occurrence of an “unforeseeable emergency,” as defined in section 409A(a)(2)(B)(ii) of the Code, to the extent not prohibited by that section of the Code and regulations issued thereunder. If a Change in Control or the Participant’s death occurs during the deferral period, the Participant’s Shares (and cash attributable to DERs) shall be delivered in a single sum to the Participant or to the Participant’s beneficiary(ies) (as applicable) on the 30^th day after the Change in Control (provided that, if the Change in Control arises from a Business Combination, the Change in Control shall be deemed to occur on the date of the closing or effectiveness of the Business Combination, as applicable) or the Participant’s death (as applicable).

A Participant’s deferral election agreement must be submitted to the Committee no later than June 30, 2015 in order to be effective; otherwise, Shares (and cash attributable to DERs) deliverable to the Participant, if any, will be delivered on March 1, 2016. Unless the delivery of deferred Shares is occasioned by either of the events described in the last sentence of the preceding paragraph, if deferred Shares are to be delivered to a Participant who is a “specified employee,” as defined in section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, upon his or her separation from service from the Trust’s controlled group of entities, the Trust shall issue and deliver such deferred Shares (and cash attributable to DERs) on the date that is six months after the date of his or her separation from service. A deferral election agreement shall be substantially in the form set forth in Appendix B attached hereto.

6

The Committee intends to administer the Program, including the delivery of Shares under an election made pursuant to this subsection (f) and the underlying deferral election agreement, in accordance with section 409A of the Code and regulations and other guidance issued thereunder, but makes no representation with respect to the qualification of the Program or the Awards granted hereunder.

5. Beneficiary Designation

(a) Each Participant shall designate the person(s) as the beneficiary(ies) to whom the Participant’s Shares shall be delivered in the event of the Participant’s death prior to the delivery of the Shares to him or her. Each beneficiary designation shall be substantially in the form set forth in Appendix C attached hereto and shall be effective only when filed with the Committee during the Participant’s lifetime.

(b) Any beneficiary designation may be changed by a Participant without the consent of any previously designated beneficiary or any other person by the filing of a new beneficiary designation with the Committee. The filing of a new beneficiary designation shall cancel all beneficiary designations previously filed.

(c) If any Participant fails to designate a beneficiary in the manner provided above, or if the beneficiary designated by a Participant predeceases the Participant, the Committee shall direct such Participant’s Shares to be delivered to the Participant’s surviving spouse or, if the Participant has no surviving spouse, then to the Participant’s estate.

6. Delivery to Guardian. If Shares are issuable under this Program to a minor, a person declared incompetent, or a person incapable of handling the disposition of property, the Committee may direct the delivery of the Shares to the guardian, legal representative, or person having the care and custody of the minor, incompetent or incapable person. The Committee may require proof of incompetence, minority, incapacity or guardianship as the Committee may deem appropriate prior to the delivery. The delivery shall completely discharge the Committee, the Trustees and the Employer from all liability with respect to the Shares delivered.

7. Source of Shares. This Program shall be unfunded, and the delivery of Shares shall be pursuant to the Plan. Each Participant and beneficiary shall be a general and unsecured creditor of the Employer to the extent of the Shares determined hereunder, and the Participant shall have no right, title or interest in any specific asset that the Employer may set aside, earmark or identify as reserved for the delivery of Shares under the Program. The Employer’s obligation under the Program shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise to deliver Shares in the future, provided the Corporate Goal is met. No person shall be entitled to the privileges of ownership in respect of Shares which are subject to Awards hereunder until such Shares have been issued to that person.

8. Capital Adjustments. Calculations required under the Program, the number of Base Units awarded under the Program, and the number of Shares that may be delivered under the Program shall be adjusted to reflect any increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares resulting from a subdivision (share-split), consolidation (reverse split), share dividend, merger, spinoff or other similar event or transaction affecting the Trust during the Measurement Period.

7

9. Tax Withholding. The delivery of Shares (and cash, if applicable) to a Participant or beneficiary under this Program shall be subject to applicable tax withholding pursuant to Section 10.6 of the Plan.

10. Administration. This Program shall be administered by the Committee pursuant to the powers granted to it in Section 3 of the Plan.

11. Amendment and Termination. The Committee reserves the right to amend the Program, by written resolution, at any time and from time to time in any fashion, provided any such amendment does not conflict with the terms of the Plan, and to terminate it at will. However, no amendment or termination of the Program shall adversely affect any Award Agreement already issued under the Program without the written consent of the affected Participant(s).

12. Headings. The headings of the Sections and subsections of the Program are for reference only. In the event of a conflict between a heading and the content of a Section or subsection, the content of the Section or subsection shall control.

13. Incorporation of Plan by Reference. Because the Program is established under the Plan in order to provide for, and determine the terms and conditions of, the granting of certain Awards thereunder, the terms and conditions of the Plan are hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Program. If any terms of the Program conflict with the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall control.

APPENDIX A

PENNSYLVANIA REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST

2013-2015 RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT PROGRAM

(Established under the Pennsylvania Real Estate

Investment Trust Second Amended and Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Plan)

EXAMPLE

A is a participant in the Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust 2013-2015 Restricted Share Unit Program (the “Program”).

The price of a beneficial interest (a “Share”) in the “Trust” (as defined in the Program) on January 1, 2013 is $15, and the price of a Share on December 31, 2015 is $25. For the three-year period beginning January 1, 2013 and ending December 31, 2015 (the “Measurement Period”), dividends total $1.80 per Share (and are paid in an equal amount on a quarterly basis – i.e., $.15 dividend per Share per quarter).

Dividends and Crediting Additional RSUs

Participant A receives a Restricted Share Unit award for 250 “Base Units” (as defined in the Program). Additional Restricted Share Units are deemed purchased and credited on a quarterly basis using dividends deemed to be paid on the units. The purchase price of the additional Restricted Share Units credited pursuant to the terms of the Program is the 20-day average share price prior to and including the date of the dividend.

The following table illustrates how dividends are deemed to be paid on the Base Units and how additional Restricted Share Units are credited and added to the aggregate number of Base Units held by Participant A:

i

Delivery of Shares

Following the expiration of the Measurement Period, the Committee (as defined in the Program) determines where the Trust’s performance, based on its total return to shareholders (“TRS”), places the Trust among the component members of the “MSCI US REIT Index” (as defined in the Program) (the “Index”), ranked pursuant to each member’s TRS over the Measurement Period, as calculated by the Trust or by a third party selected by the Committee.

Assume the TRS for the Measurement Period is determined to be 160%. If, as of December 31, 2015, the Trust’s TRS places the Trust above the 25^th percentile on the Index, Participant A would receive Shares (with fractional Shares settled in cash), with the number of Shares deliverable to the Participant determined as a percentage of 273.7 (the number of Base Units the Participant holds as of December 31, 2015).

The following chart illustrates the number of Shares deliverable as a percent of Base Units, based on the Trust’s percentile on the Index:

For example, if the Trust’s TRS places the Trust at the 50^th percentile on the Index, Participant A would receive 273 Shares (and cash for the 0.7 Share). If the Trust’s TRS places the Trust at the 24^th percentile, Participant A would receive 0 Shares, and if the Trust’s TRS places the Trust at the 80^th percentile, Participant A would receive 410 Shares (and cash for the 0.55 Share).

APPENDIX B

PENNSYLVANIA REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST

2013-2015 RESTRICTED SHARE UNIT PROGRAM

(Established under the Pennsylvania Real Estate

Investment Trust Second Amended and Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Plan)

DEFERRAL ELECTION AGREEMENT

The Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust 2013-2015 Restricted Share Unit Program, effective as of January 1, 2013 (the “Program”), provides a select group of management or highly compensated employees with the ability to defer a portion of their compensation earned under the Program. The purpose of this Deferral Election Agreement is to allow you to defer the delivery of all or a portion of the Shares that are otherwise deliverable to you under the Program until one of the events selected below occurs.

AFTER YOU SIGN THIS DEFERRAL ELECTION AGREEMENT AND IT IS ACCEPTED BY PENNSYLVANIA REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST (THE “TRUST”), YOU MAY NOT REVOKE IT AFTER JUNE 30, 2015. IF YOU DECIDE SUBSEQUENTLY TO CHOOSE A LATER DELIVERY DATE, YOU MUST SUBMIT A NEW DEFERRAL ELECTION AGREEMENT AT LEAST 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO YOUR ORIGINAL DELIVERY DATE AND YOUR NEW DELIVERY DATE MUST BE AT LEAST FIVE YEARS AFTER YOUR ORIGINAL DELIVERY DATE. YOU MAY NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, ACCELERATE THE DELIVERY OF YOUR PERFORMANCE SHARES AFTER THIS DEFERRAL ELECTION AGREEMENT HAS BECOME EFFECTIVE (OTHER THAN AS A RESULT OF AN UNFORESEEABLE EMERGENCY, IF ELECTED BELOW).

You need only complete this Deferral Election Agreement if you wish to defer the delivery of Shares that become deliverable to you under the Program. Capitalized terms in this Deferral Election Agreement are defined in the Program.

¨  I hereby elect to defer under the terms of the Program the delivery of     % [insert any whole percentage from one to 100 percent, inclusive] of the Shares that may become deliverable to me under the Program, less any Shares necessary to satisfy any applicable FICA and/or FUTA tax withholding obligations.

I hereby elect to have the Trust deliver the percentage set forth above of the Shares that may become deliverable to me under the Program upon the following event [check only one box]:

¨  (A) On the 10^th calendar day after my separation from service from the Trust’s controlled group of entities (the date which is six months after such separation from service if I am a “specified employee” at that time – see Section 4(f) of the Program).

ii

¨  (B) On the following date:                  , 20     [must be after December 31, 2016].

¨  (C) Upon the earlier of the 10^th calendar day after my separation from service (as described in event (A) above) or the following date:             , 20    [must be after December 31, 2016].

In addition to the election I made in 2 above, if I check the following box, I also elect to have the Trust deliver Shares, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to me:

¨  Upon an “Unforeseeable Emergency,” as defined in Section 4(f) of the Program. (This term is defined quite restrictively in the Internal Revenue Code. See the footnote on the previous page regarding consulting with your own tax advisor before completing this Deferral Election Agreement.)

If a Change in Control or my death occurs before all of the Shares are delivered to me, such Shares shall be delivered in a single distribution to me or to my beneficiary(ies) designated in my Beneficiary Designation Form (as applicable) on the 30^th day after such Change in Control (provided that, if the Change in Control arises from a Business Combination, the Change in Control shall be deemed to occur on the date of the closing or effectiveness of the Business Combination, as applicable) or death (as applicable). In addition, the Company may distribute the Shares to me prior to the date selected under Section 2 above to the extent such delivery is consistent with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code.

Because of the finite number of Shares available under the Pennsylvania Real Estate Investment Trust Second Amended and Restated 2003 Equity Incentive Plan, I understand that it is possible that not enough Shares will be available under the Plan to deliver all of the Shares otherwise required to be delivered to me (or to my beneficiary(ies)) on the deferral date(s) chosen in 2 and 3 above. I acknowledge and agree that in the event that an insufficient number of Shares are available under the Plan, cash will be delivered to me in lieu of Shares.

*    *    *    *    *

By signing this Deferral Election Agreement, I agree to the terms and conditions of the Program as the Program now exists, and as it may be amended from time to time (provided that no amendment of the Program will adversely affect my rights under the Program without my written consent).
