1. Organization

Winthrop Realty Trust (“Winthrop”), a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code is an unincorporated association in the form of a business trust organized in Ohio under a Declaration of Trust dated August 1, 1961, as amended and restated on May 21, 2009, which has as its stated principal business activity the ownership and management of, and lending to, real estate and related investments.

Winthrop conducts its business through WRT Realty L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership”). Winthrop is the sole general partner of, and owns directly and indirectly, 100% of the limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. All references to the “Trust” refer to Winthrop and its consolidated subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership.

The Trust is engaged in the business of owning real property and real estate related assets which it categorizes into three segments: (i) ownership of investment properties including wholly owned properties and investments in joint ventures which own properties (“operating properties”); (ii) origination and acquisition of loans and debt securities collateralized directly or indirectly by commercial and multi-family real property, including collateral mortgage-backed securities and collateral debt obligation securities (collectively “loan assets”); and (iii) equity and debt interests in other real estate investment trusts (“REIT securities”).

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements, although management believes that the disclosures presented herein are adequate to make the accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements not misleading. The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated annual financial statements and the notes thereto included in Winthrop’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 filed with the SEC. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair statements have been included, and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated interim financial statements represent the consolidated results of Winthrop, its wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary, WRT-TRS Management Corp., the Operating Partnership and all majority-owned subsidiaries and affiliates over which the Trust has financial and operating control and variable interest entities (“VIE”s) in which the Trust has determined it is the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Trust accounts for all other unconsolidated joint ventures using the equity method of accounting. Accordingly, the Trust’s share of the earnings of these joint ventures and companies is included in consolidated net income.

Stock-Based Compensation

Pursuant to the Trust’s 2007 Long Term Stock Incentive Plan the Trust may, from time to time, issue stock-based compensation awards to certain eligible persons including those performing services for FUR Advisors LLC (“FUR Advisors”), the Trust’s external advisor. During the first six months of 2013, the Trust issued 600,000 restricted common shares of beneficial interest. See Note 16 for further discussion. The Trust accounts for this stock-based compensation in accordance with ASC 505-50, Equity-Based Payments to Non-Employees. Until the awards are no longer subject to forfeiture, the Trust measures stock-based compensation expense at each reporting date for any changes in fair value and recognizes the expense prorated for the portion of the requisite service period completed.

The Trust determines basic earnings per share on the weighted average number of common shares of beneficial interest (“Common Shares”) outstanding during the period and reflects the impact of participating securities. The Trust computes diluted earnings per share based on the weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding combined with the incremental weighted average effect from all outstanding potentially dilutive instruments.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

On February 5, 2013, FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02: Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, to improve the transparency of reporting the reclassifications

of significant amounts out of accumulated other comprehensive income. This guidance requires entities to present the effects on the line items of net income of significant reclassifications from accumulated other comprehensive income, either where net income is presented or in the notes, as well as cross-reference to other disclosures currently required under U.S. GAAP for other reclassification items (that are not required under U.S. GAAP) to be reclassified directly to net income in their entirety in the same reporting period. The new disclosure requirements will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The new disclosures will be required for both interim and annual reporting. The Trust has evaluated this new guidance and its adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

On December 16, 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11: Balance Sheet (Topic 210)—Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities, clarified by ASU No. 2013-1, which requires entities to disclose both gross information and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the financial statements particularly for transactions related to derivatives, sale and repurchase agreements and reverse sale and repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending arrangements. The new disclosure requirements will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The new disclosures will be required for all prior comparative periods presented. The Trust has evaluated this new guidance and its adoption did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Fair Value Measurements

REIT securities, loan securities and derivative financial instruments are reported at fair value. The accounting standards establish a framework for measuring fair value as well as disclosures about fair value measurements. They emphasize that fair value is a market based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement. Therefore a fair value measurement should be determined based on the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the standards establish a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy).

The Trust’s Level 3 loan securities carried at fair value primarily consist of non-agency mortgage-related securities. The Trust values the loan securities carried at fair value it holds based primarily on prices received from a pricing service. The techniques used by the pricing service to develop the prices generally are either: (a) a comparison to transactions involving instruments with similar collateral and risk profiles; or (b) industry standard modeling, such as a discounted cash flow model. The significant inputs and assumptions used to determine the fair value of the Trust’s loan securities include prepayment rates, probability of default, loss severity and yield to maturity percentages.

Recurring Measurements

The table below presents the Trust’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2013 according to the level in the fair value hierarchy within which those measurements fall (in thousands):

When a determination is made to classify a financial instrument within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy, the determination is based upon the significance of the unobservable factors to the overall fair value measurement.

Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements

At June 30, 2013 the Trust held only one loan security which is valued at $226,000, or 20% of face value. The valuation reflects assumptions that would be considered by market participants along with management’s assessment of collectible future cash flows.

Non-Recurring Measurements

Non-recurring measurements of fair value of assets or liabilities would typically include investments in real estate, assets held for sale and equity investments. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 the Trust recognized an impairment charge of $154,000 on its Denton, Texas property which is included in assets held for sale. The Trust did not recognize any valuation adjustments as a result of non-recurring measurements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2013 the Trust entered into a purchase and sale agreement on its Denton, Texas property. At June 30, 2013 the purchase deposit was non-refundable and it was probable that the sale would be consummated. As a result the property was classified as held for sale at June 30, 2013. A fair value measurement was prepared based on the purchase contract and $154,000 impairment charge was recorded at June 30, 2013.

Loans Receivable and Mortgage Loans Payable

Fair values of loans receivable and mortgage loans payable are primarily determined by discounting the expected cash flows at current interest rates plus an applicable risk spread, which reflects credit quality and maturity of the loans. The risk spread is based on loans with comparable credit quality, maturities and risk profile. Loans receivable may also be based on the fair value of the underlying real estate collateral less cost to sell, which is estimated using appraised values. These are classified as Level 3.

Fair Value Option

The current accounting guidance for fair value measurement provides a fair value option election that allows companies to irrevocably elect fair value as the measurement attribute for certain financial assets and liabilities. Changes in fair value for assets and liabilities for which the election is made are recognized in earnings on a quarterly basis based on the then market price regardless of whether such assets or liabilities have been disposed of at such time. The fair value option guidance permits the fair value option election to be made on an instrument by instrument basis when it is initially recorded or upon an event that gives rise to a new basis of accounting for that asset or liability. The Trust elected the fair value option for all loan securities and REIT securities acquired.

4. Acquisitions, Dispositions, Leasing and Financing Activities

Operating Property Activity:

1515 Market Street – loan modification and equity acquisition - On February 1, 2013 the Trust entered into a loan modification agreement which extended the maturity date to February 1, 2016, increased the loan balance to $71,629,000 (from $70,000,000) and changed the interest rate to be the greater of 7.5% or LIBOR plus 6.5%. The loan balance can be increased through future funding advances up to an aggregate of $6,000,000 to cover tenant improvements, capital expenditures and leasing commissions. For each $500,000 of future advances, the interest rate increases by 0.10%. The loan modification also provides the lender with a 40% participation interest in the case of a capital event.

Simultaneously with the modification of the loan, the Trust acquired, for $10,000, an indirect 49% equity interest in the property. As part of the transaction, the Trust acquired the general partner interest in the property. Management has determined that this entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and that the Trust is the primary beneficiary of the VIE (see Note 18). As a result, the Trust has consolidated this property as of February 1, 2013. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. For segment reporting purposes, this investment will be classified within the operating properties segment as of February 1, 2013. Prior to consolidation, this investment was part of the loan assets segment.

Deer Valley – property sale - On June 11, 2013 the Trust sold its Deer Valley, Arizona property to an independent third party for gross sale proceeds of $20,500,000. After costs and pro-rations, the Trust received net proceeds of approximately $19,585,000 and recorded a gain of $6,752,000 on the sale of the property. The results of operations for this property have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the consolidated interim financial statements.

Loan Asset Activity:

Fenway Shea – loan payoff - On June 14, 2013 the $2,250,000 loan collateralized by the property located at Shea Blvd in Phoenix, Arizona was paid off in full at par. There was no gain or loss recognized on the payoff.

Atrium Mall LLC – joint venture loan acquisition - On June 20, 2013 the Trust, through a newly formed 50-50 joint venture with Marc Realty, acquired a non-performing $10,650,000 mortgage loan for $6,625,000. In addition, the joint venture paid $1,137,000 to fund escrows at the closing. The Trust invested a total of $3,935,000 in this venture during the quarter ended June 30, 2013 and will account for this investment using the equity method. The loan was in maturity default at the time of acquisition and was acquired with the intention of foreclosing or working out a consensual assignment with the borrower. The loan is collateralized by a leasehold interest in the Atrium Mall in Chicago, Illinois. The leasehold interest is for 71,000 square feet of commercial/retail space that comprises the bottom three floors of an office building known as the James R Thompson building which lease expires in September 2014 with six automatic five-year extensions which are exercisable at the lessee’s option. The building is owned by the State of Illinois. See “Note 18-Subsequent Events”.

Financing Activity:

Recourse Secured Financings – loan payments - During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, several of the condominium units collateralizing the Queensridge loan receivable were sold resulting in payments to the Trust of approximately $14,960,000 and $25,077,000, respectively. The Trust made corresponding pay downs of $13,653,000 and $23,770,000, respectively on its recourse debt with KeyBank which fully satisfied the Trust’s debt at June 30, 2013.

1515 Market Street – new first mortgage - On April 25, 2013 the entity that holds title to the property located at 1515 Market Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (the “1515 Market Owner”) obtained a $43,000,000 non-recourse first mortgage loan (“First Mortgage”) from an unaffiliated third party. The First Mortgage bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.0% per annum, requires monthly payments of interest only and matures on May 1, 2016. On the same date, the Trust entered into an interest rate swap agreement which effectively fixes LIBOR at 0.50% for the term of the First Mortgage. The Trust, which held the mortgage loan (“Original Mortgage”) collateralized by the property at the time of the closing of the First Mortgage, received $38,472,000 of loan proceeds from the First Mortgage financing which reduced the balance on the Original Mortgage to $33,157,000. The Original Mortgage is now subordinate to the First Mortgage, bears interest at an effective rate of 12.9% per annum and is secured by a second mortgage on the property. The Trust’s investment in the Original Mortgage has been reduced to $21,098,000 resulting in an effective interest rate on the Trust’s cash investment in this asset of 19.6%. Due to the Trust’s ownership of a 49% interest, including the general partner interest, in the 1515 Market Owner and an additional 40% profits participation interest in the property, the Trust consolidates the operation of this property and the Original Mortgage, and all intercompany transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

(1) The Trust determined that certain loans receivable are variable interests in VIEs primarily based on the fact that the underlying entities do not have sufficient equity at risk to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. The Trust does not have the power to direct the activities of the entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and is not required to consolidate the underlying entity.

(2) LIBOR floor of 3%.

(3) LIBOR floor of 2%.

(4) LIBOR floor of 0.5%.

(5) The borrower has a one year extension option and has given notice of their intention to exercise the option. The Trust is reviewing the borrower’s financial covenants and expects the extension to be granted.

Credit Quality of Loans Receivable and Loan Losses

The Trust evaluates impairment on its loan portfolio on an individual basis and has developed a loan grading system for all of its outstanding loans that are collateralized directly or indirectly by real estate. Grading categories include debt yield, debt service coverage ratio, length of loan, property type, loan type, and other more subjective variables that include property or collateral location, market conditions, industry conditions, and sponsor’s financial stability. Management reviews each category and assigns an overall numeric grade for each loan to determine the loan’s risk of loss and to provide a determination as to whether an individual loan is impaired and whether a specific loan loss allowance is necessary. A loan’s grade of credit quality is determined quarterly.

All loans with a positive score do not require a loan loss allowance. Any loan graded with a neutral score or “zero” is subject to further review of the collectability of the interest and principal based on current conditions and qualitative factors to determine if impairment is warranted. Any loan with a negative score is deemed impaired and management then would measure the specific impairment of each loan separately using the fair value of the collateral less costs to sell.

Management estimates the loan loss allowance by calculating the estimated fair value less costs to sell of the underlying collateral securing the loan based on the fair value of underlying collateral and comparing the fair value to the loan’s net carrying value. If the fair value is less than the net carrying value of the loan, an allowance is created with a corresponding charge to the provision for loan losses. The allowance for each loan will be maintained at a level the Trust believes will be adequate to absorb losses.

The table below summarizes the Trust’s loans receivable by internal credit rating at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 (in thousands, except for number of loans):

	June 30, 2013				December 31, 2012

Non-Performing Loans

The Trust considers a loan to be non-performing and places loans on non-accrual status at such time as management determines it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan. While on non-accrual status, based on the Trust’s judgment as to collectability of principal, loans are either accounted for on a cash basis, where interest income is recognized only upon actual receipt of cash, or on a cost-recovery basis, where all cash receipts reduce a loan’s carrying value. If and when a loan is brought back into compliance with its contractual terms, the Trust will resume accrual of interest. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, there were no non-performing loans and no past due payments. The Trust did not record any provision for loan loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

(3) The Trust has elected to report its share of earnings from the investment on a three month lag period.

The Trust has determined that the fair value of certain of its investments in the Marc Realty ventures marginally exceed their carrying values. The Sealy Northwest Atlanta venture has a carrying value that is above the current fair value. Management believes that the decline in value is temporary. While this venture continues to aggressively market available space for lease and work with existing tenants for lease renewal, which has resulted in an increase in occupancy from 70% at December 31, 2012 to 72% at June 30, 2013, declines in occupancy could cause impairment of this venture that could be material.

WRT-Elad - The Trust holds its mezzanine loan interest in Sullivan Center through WRT-Elad One South State Lender LP (“Lender LP”) and its profits participation interest through WRT-Elad One South State Equity LP (“Equity LP”). On February 18, 2013, a forbearance agreement was entered into whereby Lender LP agreed to forbear from exercising its rights under the loan documents with respect to the borrower’s failure to pay debt service for the period from December 2012 through October 2013. To the extent such debt service is not paid, debt service will accrue and be added to the outstanding principal balance of the mezzanine loan on each applicable monthly payment date. In exchange for the forbearance, Equity LP’s future interest in the property increased by 5% to 70%, with a corresponding decrease in the borrower’s general partner’s interest. In consideration for the forbearance the borrower is required to pay a $1,400,000 fee to Lender LP on or prior to November 9, 2013. If the $1,400,000 is not paid, in lieu of payment, then Equity LP’s indirect future interest in the property will increase by an additional 6% with a corresponding decrease to the general partner’s interest.

There is a basis differential of $11,719,000 between the Trust’s carrying value of its investments in WRT-Elad One South State Equity LP and the basis reflected at the joint venture level, which is amortized over the life of the related assets. The basis differential primarily relates to a bargain purchase gain recognized at the joint venture level upon acquisition.

Concord - On February 25, 2013, the Trust sold for $25,000 a 17% interest in the equity of CDH CDO LLC, exclusive of the interest in the entity that holds the collateral management agreement of CDH CDO, to Inland American. The sale of the

interest was bifurcated between the Trust’s original interest and the interest acquired from Lexington Realty Trust with $12,500 of the sales price being allocated to each interest. The Trust recognized a gain of $12,500 on the sale of its original interest and a loss of $123,000 on the sale of its other interest. The sale of the interest did not affect the voting rights within CDH CDO LLC and did not result in a change in control. The Trust will continue to account for its investments in CDH CDO LLC under the equity method.

There is a basis differential on the Concord Debt Holdings and CDH CDO LLC interests acquired from Lexington of $5,288,000. This basis differential was a result of the purchase price exceeding the book basis at the venture level for the acquired interest.

RE CDO Management - On February 20, 2013 the venture sold its subordinated interests in Sorin CDO III for $2,750,000 and transferred the Sorin CDO III collateral management agreement for $0. On March 8, 2013 the venture sold its C Tranche subordinated interests in Sorin CDO IV for $6,240,000. As a result of the sales, the Trust received distributions of approximately $4,416,000 in the aggregate. The Trust’s share of the gain has been recorded as equity in earnings of this equity investment.

Sealy - On May 30, 2013 the Trust contributed its interest in Newmarket GP LLC and its interest in Airpark Nashville GP to WRT-TRS Management Corp its wholly owned taxable REIT subsidiary. The Trust’s carrying value of both investments was zero at the time of the contributions and the transaction had no effect on the financial statements of the Trust.

Notes Payable

In conjunction with the loan modification on the property located in Cerritos, California the Trust assumed a $14,500,000 B Note that bears interest at 6.6996% per annum and requires monthly interest payments of approximately $12,000 with the balance of the interest accruing. The loan modification agreement provides for a participation feature whereby the B Note can be fully satisfied with proceeds from the sale of the property after the Trust receives a 9.0% priority return on its capital, during a specified time period as defined in the loan modification document. As of June 30, 2013, the carrying value of the participating B Note was $845,000 which approximates fair value. The inputs used in determining the estimated fair value of the Trust’s Notes Payable are categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. See Note 18 for additional information regarding this property.

On October 15, 2012, 5400 Westheimer LP, an entity in which the Trust holds an interest and consolidates, executed a note payable to its partners in the amount of $1,600,000. The note bears interest at 15% per annum and matures on October 15, 2022. Since the Trust holds 50% of the loan, $800,000 of the note payable and associated interest is eliminated in consolidation for accounting purposes. The balance of the note as of June 30, 2013 was $800,000 which approximates fair value.

9. Revolving Line of Credit

The Trust has a revolving line of credit in the principal amount of $50,000,000 which bears interest at LIBOR plus 3% and has a maturity date of March 3, 2014 with an option to extend the maturity date to March 3, 2015. The Trust must comply with financial covenants on an ongoing basis. The covenants are tested as of the end of each quarter based upon results for that quarter. The Trust was in compliance of its financial covenants under its revolving line of credit as of June 30, 2013.

The revolving line of credit is collateralized by certain approved assets and since it is recourse to the Trust it is effectively collateralized by all of the Trust’s assets. The revolving line of credit requires monthly payments of interest only. To the extent that the amounts outstanding under the facility are in excess of the borrowing base (as calculated per the terms of the loan agreement), the Trust is required to make a principal payment to reduce such excess. The Trust may prepay from time to time without premium or penalty and re-borrow amounts prepaid.

The outstanding balance under the facility was $0 at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The Trust is required to pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the line, which amounted to approximately $44,000 and $87,000, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, and approximately $43,000 and $62,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

10. Senior Notes Payable

In August 2012 the Trust issued a total $86,250,000 of its 7.75% Senior Notes (the “Senior Notes”) at an issue price of 100% of par value. The Trust received net proceeds of approximately $83,228,000, after deducting the underwriting discounts, commissions and offering expenses.

27

WINTHROP REALTY TRUST

FORM 10-Q JUNE 30, 2013

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

The Senior Notes mature on August 15, 2022 and bear interest at the rate of 7.75% per year, payable quarterly in arrears commencing November 15, 2012. The Trust may redeem the Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time on or after August 15, 2015 at a redemption price in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest.

The Senior Notes rank senior to all of the Trust’s future indebtedness that by its terms is expressly subordinate to the Senior Notes, effectively making the Senior Notes senior to all of the Trust’s existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness to the extent of the collateral securing the Senior Notes and pari passu thereafter. The Senior Notes are structurally subordinated to all of the existing and future liabilities of Winthrop’s subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership, but will have a security interest in the promissory note of the Operating Partnership to the Trust, which promissory note is pari passu with all existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness of the Operating Partnership.

11. Derivative Financial Instruments

The Trust has exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates. The Trust seeks to limit its risk to interest rate fluctuations through match financing on its assets as well as through hedging transactions.

The Trust’s objective in using interest rate derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Trust primarily uses interest rate caps and interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy relating to certain of its variable rate debt instruments.

The effective portion of changes in fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change, if any, in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 interest rate caps and swaps were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt. The Trust also assesses, both at its inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the hedging instrument is highly effective in achieving offsetting changes in the cash flows attributable to the hedged item. The Trust has recorded changes in fair value related to the effective portion of its interest rate hedges designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges totaling $131,000 and $130,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, and $25,000 and $57,000 of comprehensive loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively.

The table below presents information about the Trust’s interest rate caps and interest rate swaps that are included on the consolidated balance sheet that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk at June 30, 2013 (in thousands):

12. Non-controlling Interests

Houston, Texas Operating Property – During the first quarter of 2013, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Trust acquired a quarter-unit limited partner interest, representing 1% of Westheimer Holding LP (“Westheimer”), for a purchase price of $75,000. The Trust accounted for this purchase as an equity transaction recording the difference in the $127,000 carrying value of the acquired non-controlling interest and the purchase price as a $52,000 increase in paid-in capital. During the second quarter of 2013, the wholly-owned subsidiary acquired an additional 1% interest in Westheimer for a purchase price of $75,000. The Trust accounted for this purchase as an equity transaction recording the difference in the $126,000 carrying value of the acquired non-controlling interest and the purchase price as a $51,000 increase in paid-in capital. As a result, the Trust now owns 32% of Westheimer.

One East Erie/Ontario Operating Property – On June 1, 2012, the Trust purchased from Marc Realty its 20% non-controlling interest in FT-Ontario Holdings LLC (“Ontario”) for $5,850,000. The Trust accounted for this purchase as an equity transaction recording the difference in the $363,000 carrying value of the acquired non-controlling interest and the purchase price as a $5,487,000 reduction in paid-in capital.

Deer Valley Operating Property – On March 29, 2012 the Trust purchased the 3.5% non-controlling ownership interest of its consolidated joint venture, WRT-DV LLC, for $400,000. The Trust accounted for the purchase as an equity transaction recording the difference in the $192,000 carrying value of the acquired non-controlling interest and the purchase price as a $208,000 reduction in paid-in capital.

The changes in the Trust’s ownership interest in the subsidiaries impacted consolidated equity during the period are as follows:

	Three Months Ended June 30,					Six Months Ended June 30,

and Andover, Massachusetts were sold and are included in discontinued operations for all periods presented. Also during 2013 the Trust’s retail property in Denton, Texas went under contract with a non-refundable deposit and was classified as a held for sale asset as of June 30, 2013.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

In addition to the initial purchase price of certain loans and operating properties, the Trust has future funding commitments attributable to its 450 W 14^th Street property, 701 Seventh Avenue investment and 1515 Market Street loan which total approximately $42,815,000 at June 30, 2013. The Trust has a ground lease related to its property located at 450 W 14^th Street, New York, New York which expires on June 1, 2053. As of June 30, 2013, in connection with the ground lease, the Trust has commitments of $657,000; $1,405,000; $1,463,000; $1,592,000; $1,656,000 and $109,419,000 for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and thereafter, respectively.

The Trust is involved from time to time in litigation on various matters, including disputes with tenants and disputes arising out of agreements to purchase or sell properties. Given the nature of the Trust’s business activities, these lawsuits are considered routine to the conduct of its business. The result of any particular lawsuit cannot be predicted because of the very nature of litigation, the litigation process and its adversarial nature, and the jury system. The Trust does not expect that the liabilities, if any, that may ultimately result from such legal actions will have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.

Churchill, Pennsylvania - In 2011 the Trust was conveyed title to the land underlying the Churchill, Pennsylvania property. Prior to the conveyance of the land, a Phase II environmental study was performed. The study found that there were certain contaminants at the property all of which were within permitted ranges. In addition, given the nature and use of the property currently and in the past, it is possible that there may be contamination that could require remediation. The Trust believes that based on applicable law and existing agreements any such remediation costs would be the responsibility of a prior owner or tenant.

In connection with the settlement agreement entered into on September 30, 2011 with CBS Corporation (“CBS”), the Trust was required to market the Churchill, Pennsylvania property for sale and to the extent the property was sold or the Trust received a responsible offer as defined in the settlement agreement from a credit worthy third party in an amount in excess of $6,500,000, net of closing costs, the Trust is required to pay to CBS the sum of 50% of such net proceeds in excess of $6,500,000. In this regard, the Trust received an offer on the portion of the property leased to Westinghouse Electric Company LLC which would have resulted in net proceeds in excess of $6,500,000. The Trust did not pursue the sale of the property and at June 30, 2013 recorded a payable in the amount of $134,000 representing the 50% excess due to CBS. If certain conditions, which are not considered probable as of June 30, 2013, are met in the future, the Trust could be liable to pay an additional contingent fee of approximately $340,000.

Additionally, FUR Advisors receives a fee equal to 0.25% of any equity contributions by unaffiliated third parties to a venture managed by the Trust.

Property Management and Construction Management - Winthrop Management, an affiliate of FUR Advisors and the Trust’s executive officers, assumed property management responsibilities for various properties owned by the Trust. Winthrop Management receives a property management fee and construction management fee pursuant to the terms of individual property management agreements. Construction management fees are capitalized in accordance with GAAP.

At June 30, 2013 $2,291,000 payable to FUR Advisors and $367,000 payable to Winthrop Management were included in related party fees payable.

16. Restricted Share Grants

On February 1, 2013 the Board approved the issuance of 600,000 shares of Restricted Common Shares (“Restricted Shares”) to the Trust’s Advisor, 500,000 of which were subject to the approval of the shareholders to the increase in the number of shares issuable under the Trust’s 2007 Stock Option Plan (the “SOP”). The initial 100,000 Restricted Shares were issued on February 28, 2013. At the May 21, 2013 annual shareholders meeting the increase in shares issuable under the SOP from 100,000 to 1,000,000 was approved by the requisite number of shareholders and the remaining 500,000 shares were issued on May 28, 2013. The Restricted Shares are subject to forfeiture through December 31, 2017. Except in limited circumstances, if the holder of the Restricted Shares does not remain in continuous employment with FUR Advisors or its affiliate through December 31, 2017 (the “Forfeiture Period”), all of their rights to the Restricted Shares and the associated dividends held in escrow will be forfeited. Dividends will be paid on the issued Restricted Shares in conjunction with dividends on Common Shares not issued under the SOP. However, the recipients of the Restricted Shares will only receive dividends as if the shares vested quarterly over the Forfeiture Period, with the remaining dividends to be placed into escrow and paid to the holders at the expiration of the Forfeiture Period.

Until the awards are no longer subject to forfeiture, the Trust measures stock-based compensation expense at each reporting date for any changes in fair value and recognizes the expense prorated for the portion of the requisite service period completed. Accordingly, the Trust recognized $168,000 and $211,000 in non-cash compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2013 there were no forfeitures of Restricted Shares.

17. Reportable Segments

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance on segment reporting establishes standards for the way that public business enterprises report information about operating segments in financial statements and requires that those enterprises report selected financial information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. Based on the Trust’s method of internal reporting, management determined that it has three operating segments: (i) the ownership of operating properties; (ii) the origination and acquisition of loans and debt securities secured directly or indirectly by commercial and multi-family real property – collectively, loan assets; and (iii) the ownership of equity and debt securities in other REITs – REIT securities.

The operating properties segment includes all of the Trust’s wholly and partially owned operating properties. The loan assets segment includes all of the Trust’s activities related to real estate loans including loans receivable, loan securities and equity investments in loan related entities. The REIT securities segment includes all of the Trust’s activities related to the ownership of securities in other publicly traded real estate companies. In addition to its three business segments, the Trust reports non-segment specific income and expense under corporate income (expense).

The following table summarizes the Trust’s assets by business segment for the periods ended June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 (in thousands):

	June 30, 2013		December 31, 2012

18. Variable Interest Entities

Consolidated Variable Interest Entities

Consolidated variable interest entities are those where the Trust is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. The primary beneficiary is the party that has a controlling financial interest in the VIE, which is defined by the entity having both of the following characteristics: 1) the power to direct the activities that, when taken together, most significantly impact the VIE’s performance, and 2) the obligation to absorb losses and right to receive the returns from the VIE that could be significant to the VIE. The Trust has identified two consolidated variable interest entities.

Although the Trust holds 100% of the equity interests in the Cerritos office property, the B-Note collateralized by the property enables the senior lender to participate in the entity’s expected residual returns, the Trust will need to fund expected losses and infuse additional capital to lease and stabilize property operations. Through its equity interests in the property, the Trust has both the right to the returns of the entity and power to direct the activities of Cerritos. Accordingly, the Trust is the primary beneficiary and has consolidated Cerritos since its acquisition on October 5, 2012.

At June 30, 2013, the carrying value of the Cerritos assets and liabilities included: land and building of $22,304,000 net of accumulated depreciation of $597,000; lease intangibles of $3,375,000 net of accumulated amortization of $464,000; mortgage debt comprised of an A Note totaling $23,163,000; and participating B Note totaling $845,000. The outstanding mortgage debt collateralized by the property is non-recourse to the Trust.

In connection with the loan modification of 1515 Market Street, the Trust acquired a 49% equity interest in the entity that holds the property. This equity interest includes the general partner interest. The Trust determined that the 1515 Market Street entity was a variable interest entity due to the lender’s right to participate in the entity’s expected residual returns. Through its equity interest, the Trust has both the right to the returns of the entity and power to direct the activities of 1515 Market Street. Accordingly, the Trust is the primary beneficiary and has consolidated the property effective February 1, 2013.

At June 30, 2013, the carrying value of the 1515 Market Street assets and liabilities include land and building of $43,142,000 net of accumulated depreciation of $364,000 and lease intangibles of $16,982,000 net of accumulated amortization of $972,000; mortgage debt of a first note of $42,922,000 and a second note that is eliminated in consolidation. The outstanding mortgage debt collateralized by the property is non-recourse to the Trust.

Variable Interest Entities Not Consolidated

Equity Method and Preferred Equity Investments - The Trust has reviewed its various equity method and preferred equity investments and identified 11 investments for which the Trust holds a variable interest in a VIE. Of these 11 interests there are seven investments for which the underlying entities do not have sufficient equity at risk to permit them to finance their activities without additional subordinated financial support. There are four additional entities for which the VIE assessment was primarily based on the fact that the voting rights of the equity holders are not proportional to their obligations to absorb expected losses and rights to receive residual returns of the legal entities. These 11 unconsolidated joint ventures are those where the Trust is not the primary beneficiary of a VIE.

Loans Receivable and Loan Securities - The Trust has reviewed its loans receivable and loan securities and four of these assets have been identified as variable interests in a VIE because the equity investment at risk at the borrowing entity level is not considered sufficient for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support. There is one investment where the equity holders lack the right to receive returns due to the lender’s participation interest in the debt.

Certain loans receivable and loan securities which have been determined to be VIEs are performing assets, meeting their debt service requirements. In these cases the borrower holds legal title to the real estate collateral and has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE, including management and leasing activities. In the event of default under these loans, the Trust only has protective rights and its obligation to absorb losses is limited to the extent of its loan investment. The borrower has been determined to be the primary beneficiary for these performing assets.

(Unaudited)

The Trust has determined that it does not currently have the power to direct the activities of the properties collateralizing any of its loans receivable and loan securities. For this reason, management believes that it does not control, nor is it the primary beneficiary of these properties. Accordingly, the Trust accounts for these investments under the guidance for loans receivable and real estate debt investments.

19. Subsequent Events

Denton – property sale - On July 2, 2013 the Trust sold its Denton, Texas property to an independent third party for gross sale proceeds of $1,850,000. After costs and pro-rations, the Trust received net proceeds of approximately $1,703,000.

701 7^th Avenue – increased ownership and commitment - On July 9, 2013 the Trust agreed to increase its ownership in the current joint venture and to participate in the future hotel development. In doing so, on July 23, 2013 the Trust made an additional $4,927,000 capital contribution to the joint venture and has committed to invest up to $120,000,000 in the aggregate (inclusive of the $35,404,000 in contributions already made).

Atrium Mall– Assignment in Lieu- On July 26, 2013 the joint venture that acquired the loan collateralized by the leasehold interest in Atrium Mall, Chicago, Illinois property entered into an agreement with the borrower pursuant to which the borrower conveyed the leasehold interest to the venture in lieu of foreclosure. Accordingly, the venture now holds the leasehold interest in the property.

Thanksgiving Tower– In connection with the acquisition from Lexington Realty Trust, the Trust agreed to pay a contingent purchase price based on the ultimate recovery on the Thanksgiving Tower loan held by CDH CDO LLC. The property collateralizing this loan was sold in July 2013. It is expected that CDH CDO LLC will receive its allocable portion of the sale proceeds in August 2013. To the extent that CDH CDO LLC receives in excess of 81% of the Thanksgiving Tower receivable of approximately $16,725,000 inclusive of interest due, the Trust will be required to pay a contingent purchase price to Lexington Realty Trust of approximately $2,063,000.

Metrotech– joint venture loan payoff- On July 30, 2013 the $40,000,000 loan held by this venture was paid off at par. The Trust received a distribution of $13,333,000 in connection with its 33.33% ownership interest in the venture as a result of the payoff.

Seabrook– property sale- On August 1, 2013 the Trust sold its Seabrook, Texas property to an independent third party for gross sale proceeds of $3,300,000. After costs and pro-rations, the Trust received net proceeds of approximately $3,202,000.

ITEM 2 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Certain statements contained herein constitute forward-looking statements as such term is defined in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of performance. They involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our future results, financial condition and business may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements. You can find many of these statements by looking for words such as “approximates,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “plans,” “would,” “may” or similar expressions in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties. Many of the factors that will determine these items are beyond our ability to control or predict. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 under “Forward Looking Statements” and “Item 1A – Risk Factors,” as well as our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. For these statements, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We expressly disclaim any responsibility to update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Accordingly, investors should use caution in relying on forward-looking statements, which are based on information, judgments and estimates at the time they are made, to anticipate future results or trends.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations include a discussion of our unaudited consolidated interim financial statements and footnotes thereto for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 as compared with the three and six months ended June 30, 2012. These unaudited interim financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America which requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Overview

As a diversified REIT, we operate in three strategic segments: (i) operating properties; (ii) loan assets; and (iii) REIT securities. As value investors we focus and aggressively pursue our investment activity in the segments we believe will generate the greatest overall return to us given market conditions at the time. In prior years we have demonstrated our ability to adjust our business plan to capitalize on evolving marketing conditions both with respect to business segment and capital structure. We will continue to invest in opportunities which we believe will yield superior risk adjusted returns. These investments may have returns weighted towards the back end of the invested life which may negatively impact current earnings. Further, we continue to review our existing portfolio for follow-on opportunities and will seek to timely realize returns on such investments subject to any limitations we determine are necessary to avoid being subject to the REIT 100% tax on gains from dealer transactions under the Internal Revenue Code.

In connection with our strategy, in certain instances, we seek to acquire assets through joint ventures which allows us to employ third party co-investment capital to maximize diversification of risk and reduce capital concentration and in certain instances, leverage off of our joint venture partner’s experience and expertise in specific geographic areas and/or specific asset types.

We believe that the economic recovery, while slow, will continue throughout 2013 with gradually increasing rental demand across most asset classes in most major markets. We also believe that lenders will continue to take advantage of their improved balance sheets by accelerating the disposition of their non-performing real estate related assets, both debt and real property. Accordingly, we anticipate no diminishment in value opportunities for investing in 2013.

We continue to review our portfolio with a view towards divesting investments, subject to REIT rule limitations, as they mature in value to the point where these investments may be unlikely to achieve better than market returns and we redeploy capital to what we believe to be higher yielding opportunities.

We invested $3,935,000 in new loan assets during the second quarter of 2013. See Item 1, Note 4 for a description of our investments. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2013 we received $48,100,000 in proceeds from new mortgage loans, $19,774,000 in net proceeds from the sale of our Deer Valley, Arizona property and $17,472,000 from loan repayments. See additional details in our “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below.

WINTHROP REALTY TRUST

FORM 10-Q JUNE 30, 2013

Loan Assets

During the second quarter of 2013 we received repayment in full on one loan receivable for a total repayment of $2,250,000. We also received $14,961,000 in loan repayments on our Queensridge loan receivable from the sale of several condominium units which collateralize the loan, which loan repayments were used to fully satisfy our recourse loan payable secured by the Queensridge loan.

In addition, on June 20, 2013 we, through a newly formed joint venture with Marc Realty, acquired a non-performing $10,650,000 mortgage loan for $6,625,000. In addition, the joint venture paid $1,137,000 in costs and funding of escrows at the closing. We contributed a total of $3,935,000 to this venture during the quarter. The loan was in maturity default at the time of acquisition and was acquired with the intention of foreclosing or working out a consensual assignment in lieu with the borrower. The loan is collateralized by a leasehold interest in the Atrium Mall in Chicago, Illinois. The leasehold interest is for 71,000 square feet of commercial/retail space that comprises the bottom three floors of an office building known as the James R Thompson building which lease expires in September 2014 with six additional automatic five-year extensions. The building is owned by the State of Illinois. On July 26, 2013, the venture entered into an agreement with the borrower pursuant to which the borrower conveyed the leasehold interest to the venture in lieu of foreclosure. Accordingly, the venture now holds the leasehold interest in the property.

We intend to continue our loan asset acquisition and origination strategy in 2013 with a focus on loans with underlying collateral value, future income return potential and in certain cases, acquisitions of non-performing loans in the fulcrum position which have a high possibility that our debt position in the capital stack will be converted into equity participation. An example of this strategy is our recent acquisition and restructuring of the first mortgage loan on a 514,000 square foot office building located at 1515 Market Street in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Operating Properties

Disposition Activity

Deer Valley – On June 11, 2013 we sold our Deer Valley, Arizona property to an independent third party for gross sale proceeds of $20,500,000. After costs, we received net proceeds of approximately $19,774,000 and recorded a gain of $6,752,000 on the sale of the property. The results of operations for this property have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the consolidated interim financial statements.

Denton – On July 2, 2013 we sold our Denton, Texas property to an independent third party for gross sale proceeds of $1,850,000. After costs and pro-rations, the Trust received net proceeds of approximately $1,703,000. The property was classified as held for sale at June 30, 2013 and the results of operations for the property have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the consolidated interim financial statements.

Consolidated Operating Properties

During 2013 we have seen increases in our operating income from our operating properties as a result of favorable operating results from same store properties, that is, properties held during both six month periods, complemented by our new store property operating results. The full impact of the improvement is not reflected in continuing operations as certain of our improved properties were sold and are classified as discontinued operations. See our Results of Operations section below for details of our consolidated properties net income. As of June 30, 2013 our consolidated properties were approximately 87.8% leased compared to approximately 89.6% leased at December 31, 2012.

Equity Investments

Vintage Housing - During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded net income from our investment in Vintage Housing of $2,696,000 and $4,617,000, respectively, and received cash distributions of $1,611,000 and $2,265,000, respectively. The Vintage properties were 97% occupied at May 31, 2013. We have elected to recognize our earnings on a one month lag.

Sullivan Center – All cash flow at the Sullivan Center property is trapped by the first mortgage lender. As a result, the Sullivan Center property is currently unable to meet its debt service payments on the mezzanine loan held by our venture,

37

WINTHROP REALTY TRUST

FORM 10-Q JUNE 30, 2013

WRT-Elad Lender LP. The first mortgage is not prepayable until October 2013 at which time it is expected that the first mortgage will be refinanced with a new mortgage loan which bears interest at a substantially lower rate than the existing first mortgage. WRT-Elad Equity LP, our venture which holds a future ownership interest in the property, and WRT-Elad Lender LP, collectively our Sullivan JV, have entered into a forbearance agreement with the borrower and non-controlling interest owner at our Sullivan Center property. As a result, the Sullivan JV increased its future ownership interest in the property from 65% to 70%. In addition, the Sullivan JV is entitled to receive a $1,400,000 modification fee in November 2013. If the payment is not paid, the Sullivan JV’s future ownership interest will increase to 76%. We recognized $167,000 and $610,000 of income on the investment during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013. The Sullivan Center was 83% leased at May 31, 2013. We have elected to recognize our earnings on a one month lag.

701 Seventh Avenue – In October 2012 we entered into a joint venture to acquire and redevelop a 120,000 square foot property and associated air rights located at 701 Seventh Avenue, New York, New York. We made an initial investment of $28,971,000 and an additional investment of $1,742,000 in the venture. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 we recorded net income from our investment in 701 Seventh Avenue of $623,000 and $1,320,000, respectively and received cash distributions of $801,000 and $1,195,000, respectively. We have elected to recognize our earnings on a three month lag.

On July 8, 2013 we agreed to increase our ownership to 80% in the current joint venture and to participate in the future hotel development. In doing so, on July 23, 2013 the Trust made an additional $4,927,000 capital contribution to the joint venture and has committed to invest up to $120,000,000 in the aggregate (inclusive of the $35,404,000 in contributions already made).

WRT-Fenway Wateridge – On December 21, 2012 we entered into a venture which acquired for $9,200,000 a 62,152 square foot class B office building located in Sorrento Mesa (San Diego), California. We contributed a total of $7,639,000 of which $6,000,000 is a preferred equity investment which entitles us to a 12% priority return to be paid 8% currently from operating cash flow with the remaining 4% deferred. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 we recorded net income from the investment of $232,000 and $470,000 and received cash distributions of $29,000 and $123,000. We have elected to recognize our earnings on a one month lag.

Sealy - Two of the investment properties are located in Atlanta, Georgia, (Northwest Business Park and Newmarket), which had occupancies, inclusive of leases signed not yet commenced, of 72% and 53% respectively, at June 30, 2013 as compared to occupancies of 70% and 50%, respectively at December 31, 2012. The third Sealy investment is located in Nashville, Tennessee and was 81% and 84% occupied at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

The loans collateralized by the Newmarket property and the Nashville, Tennessee property continue to be in special servicing. To date, we, together with our venture partner, have been unsuccessful in negotiating a restructuring of the debt with the special servicers. It is unlikely that a restructuring of the loans will be successful. At June 30, 2013, we carry both of these investments at zero.

Marc Realty - As of June 30, 2013, we held equity interests in four properties with Marc Realty which consist of an aggregate of approximately 665,000 rentable square feet of office and retail space which was 79% occupied at June 30, 2013 as compared to 78% occupied at December 31, 2012.

REIT Securities

During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we sold securities with an original acquisition cost of $6,956,000 for net proceeds of $9,090,000.

As of June 30, 2013 our portfolio of REIT securities had a fair value of $10,360,000 compared to an original acquisition cost of $8,920,000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2013, we held $186,132,000 in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents. In addition, as of June 30, 2013 we had, subject to the value of the assets included in the borrowing base, $50,000,000 available to draw on our revolving line of credit and $10,360,000 in REIT securities.

We believe that cash flow from operations will continue to provide adequate capital to fund our operating and administrative expenses, as well as debt service obligations in the short term. As a REIT, we must distribute annually at least 90% of our

38

WINTHROP REALTY TRUST

FORM 10-Q JUNE 30, 2013

REIT taxable income. As a result of this dividend requirement, we, like other REITs, are dependent on raising capital through equity and debt issuances or forming ventures with investors to obtain funds with which to expand our business. Accordingly, we anticipate that capital with which to make future investment and financing activities will be provided from return of capital received from proceeds from loan maturities and prepayment, borrowings, the issuance of additional equity and debt securities, as well as proceeds from sales of existing assets to the extent the taxable gain on such sales is able to be sheltered through the use of capital loss carry forwards. We have capital loss carry forwards of $31,174,000, $13,502,000 which expire in 2014 and $17,672,000 which expire in 2015.

Our primary sources of funds include:

• cash and cash equivalents;

• rents and reimbursements received from our operating properties;

• payments received under our loan assets;

• disposition of REIT securities;

• sale of existing assets;

• cash distributions from joint ventures;

• borrowings under our credit facilities;

• asset specific borrowings; and

• the issuance of equity and debt securities.

Contractual Obligations

Future Funding Requirements

We have future funding requirements relating to our 450 W 14^th Street property, our 701 Seventh Avenue investment and our 1515 Market Street loan which total approximately $42,815,000 at June 30, 2013. During July 2013 we increased our commitment on 701 Seventh Avenue by an additional $52,000,000 of which $4,927,000 was funded in July.

Debt Maturities

At June 30, 2013, our balance sheet contains mortgage loans payable of $325,026,000. We have $14,985,000 maturing in 2013 and $19,019,000 maturing in 2014 with the remainder maturing in 2015 or later. On July 26, 2013 we used cash on hand to fully satisfy the $14,985,000 mortgage loan payable which was maturing this year. We have a $14,000,000 secured financing which matures in October 2013. The financing is collateralized by a loan receivable which also matures in October 2013. This loan receivable and secured financing both have a one-year extension option which are expected to be exercised. We have a $50,000,000 revolving line of credit which matures in March 2014 with an option to extend to March 2015 subject to our continued compliance of the financial covenants of the line. On June 30, 2013, we had no borrowing outstanding on the line. We continually evaluate our debt maturities and except as noted above on our Sealy equity investments, based on our current assessment, we believe there are viable financing and refinancing alternatives for debts as they mature that will not materially adversely impact our liquidity or our expected financial results.

Cash Flows

Our level of liquidity based upon cash and cash equivalents increased by approximately $88,450,000 from $97,682,000 at December 31, 2012 to $186,132,000 at June 30, 2013.

Our cash flow activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 are summarized as follows (in thousands):

	For the Six Months Ended June 30,

Operating Activities

For the six months ended June 30, 2013 our operating activities generated consolidated net income of $20,696,000 and positive cash flow of $16,616,000. Our cash provided by operations reflects our net income adjusted by: (i) a reduction for non-cash items of $12,430,000 representing primarily earnings of equity investments, gains on sales of real estate investments, current period loan discount accretion and unrealized gains on securities carried at fair value offset by adding back depreciation and amortization expenses; (ii) $10,854,000 of distributions from non-consolidated interests; and (iii) a net decrease due to changes in other operating assets and liabilities of $2,504,000. See our discussion of “Results of Operations” below for additional details on our operations.

Investing Activities

Cash flow provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was approximately $67,447,000 as compared to cash flow used in investing activities of approximately $45,169,000 for the comparable period in 2012. This change of approximately $112,616,000 resulted primarily from increased proceeds from the sale of assets in 2013 and fewer investments made in 2013.

Net cash provided by investing activities of $67,447,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was comprised primarily of the following:

• $41,760,000 in collection of loans receivable;

• $19,774,000 in proceeds from the sale of our Deer Valley, Arizona office property;

• $19,318,000 in proceeds from the sale of two loans receivable;

• $11,538,000 in proceeds from the sale of our Andover, Massachusetts office property; and

• $9,090,000 in proceeds from the sale of securities carried at fair value.

These sources of cash flow were offset primarily by:

• $20,569,000 for our Playa Vista mezzanine loan origination;

• $3,935,000 for investment in our new Atrium Mall joint venture;

• $1,742,000 for investment in our 701 7^th WRT investors joint venture;

• $868,000 of advances on our 1515 Market Street loan receivable; and

• $3,059,000 for investment in capital and tenant improvements at our operating properties.

Financing Activities

Cash flow provided by financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was approximately $4,387,000 as compared to approximately $25,667,000 for the comparable period in 2012. This change of approximately $21,280,000 resulted primarily from preferred share offerings in 2012 offset by a reduction in principal payments on our mortgage loans payable in 2013.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $4,387,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 was comprised primarily of the following:

• $43,000,000 in proceeds from a new mortgage loan on our Philadelphia, Pennsylvania office property;

• $5,100,000 in proceeds from a new mortgage loan on our Churchill, Pennsylvania property; and

• $535,000 in contributions from non-controlling interests at our New York, New York property.

These sources of cash flow were offset primarily by:

• $23,770,000 for payments on our recourse secured financing;

• $10,734,000 for dividend payments on our Common Shares;

• $3,429,000 for principal payments on our mortgage loans payable;

• $2,787,000 for dividend payments on our Series D Preferred Shares;

• $2,786,000 placed in escrow to fund dividends on our own Series D Preferred Shares payable July 1, 2013;

• $789,000 for deferred financing costs; and

• $150,000 for the acquisition of non-controlling interests on our Houston, Texas property.

Common and Preferred Share Dividends

As a result of our emphasis on total return, while we seek to achieve a stable, predictable dividend for our shareholders, we do not select or manage our investments for short-term dividend growth, but rather towards achieving overall superior total return. While we intend to continue paying dividends each quarter, the amount of our dividend will depend on the actual cash flow, financial condition, capital requirements, utilization of available capital losses, distribution requirements for REITs under the Internal Revenue Code, and such other factors as our Board of Trustees deem relevant. Subject to the foregoing, we expect to continue distributing our current cash flow from operations after reserving normal and customary amounts to maintain adequate capital reserves. In addition, when deemed prudent or necessitated by applicable dividend requirements for REITs under the Internal Revenue Code, we may make one or more special dividends during any particular year. However, during a favorable investing environment, we expect that we will utilize our carry forward capital losses to shelter gains from the disposition of our assets so we may use the proceeds for investment. We expect to continue applying these standards with respect to our dividends on a quarterly basis which may cause the dividends to increase or decrease depending on these various factors.

For each of the three months ended March 31, 2013 and June 30, 2013, we paid a regular quarterly dividend of $0.1625 per Common Share and a regular quarterly dividend of $0.578125 per Series D Preferred Share.

Comparability of Financial Data from Period to Period

The comparability of financial data from period to period is affected by several items including (i) the timing of our property acquisitions and leasing activities; (ii) the purchases and sales of assets and investments; (iii) when material other-than-temporary impairment losses on assets in our portfolio are taken; (iv) fluctuations in the fair value of our securities and loan securities carried at fair value; and (v) the reclassification of assets.

Operating property assets increased by $67,142,000 due to the conversion of our 1515 Market Street property from a loan asset to an operating property as a result of our acquisition of a 49% equity interest, inclusive of the general partner interest, in the property and decreased by $22,548,000 as a result of the sale of our Andover, Massachusetts and Deer Valley, Arizona properties.

The decrease in loan assets was due primarily to the conversion of our 1515 Market Street property, the sale of our Disney B Note at par and the payoffs at par on our 127 West 25^th Street, 180 North Michigan and Fenway Shea loans receivable.

The decrease in REIT securities assets was primarily the result of the sale of securities and a decrease in the fair market value of our remaining shares of Cedar Realty Trust.

The increase in operating income for our same store properties was primarily the result of a decrease in operating expenses of $1,333,000 and a decrease in real estate taxes of $377,000, which were partially offset by a decrease in revenue of $1,199,000.

The decrease in same store revenue was the result of:

• The partial sale of our Churchill, Pennsylvania property which occurred May 14, 2012;

• An amendment to the lease terms for Spectra Energy at 5400 Westheimer located in Houston, Texas. The modified lease reduced the average annual contractual obligation but extended the term of the lease through April 30, 2026;

• A decrease in average occupancy at our Chicago, Illinois property known as River City from 72% to 49% primarily due to the loss of a significant tenant;

• A decrease in average occupancy at 701 Arboretum located in Lisle, Illinois from 17% to 1%; and

Which were partially offset by:

• Increased average occupancy at our property known as Crossroads I located in Englewood, Colorado from 57% to 68%;

• Increased average occupancy at our property known as Crossroads II located in Englewood, Colorado from 77% to 87%;

• Increased average occupancy at our property known as 550/650 Corporetum located in Lisle, Illinois from 70% to 80%; and

• Increased average occupancy at our property known as 450 W. 14^th Street located in New York, New York from 81% to 82%.

• $1,159,000 from our residential property in Greensboro, North Carolina which was acquired November 2, 2012.

Operating expenses increased by $2,120,000 due to expenses at our new store properties of $3,645,000. Same store operating expenses decreased by $1,333,000 due primarily to the following: a decrease of $1,069,000 at our Churchill, Pennsylvania property as a result of the partial sale of the property and the new net lease with Westinghouse.

Real estate tax expense increased by $539,000. Real estate tax of $991,000 at our new store properties was offset by a decrease of $377,000 at our same store properties. The reduction at our same store properties was a result of the following:

• a decrease of $158,000 at our River City property due to a reduced assessed value;

• a decrease of $142,000 at our Crossroads I property due primarily to a prior year tax abatement received in 2013; and

• a decrease of $154,000 at our Crossroads II property due primarily to a prior year tax abatement received in 2013.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $2,567,000 in 2013 primarily as a result of our new store properties. Interest expenses related to our operating properties increased by $1,727,000 primarily as a result of financing at our new store properties in Memphis, Tennessee; Greensboro, North Carolina and Cerritos, California which were all acquired in 2012, and at our new store property in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania which was acquired in 2013.

Non-Consolidated Operating Properties: Equity Investments

Net operating income from equity investments was $6,826,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 compared to net loss of $288,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was due primarily to:

• Operating income from our Vintage portfolio increased by $3,683,000 primarily as a result of a decrease in amortization of lease intangibles;

• Operating income from our 701 Seventh WRT Investors investment, which closed October 16, 2012, was $1,320,000;

• Operating loss from our Sealy Newmarket investment decreased by $1,467,000 primarily as a result of having previously recognized losses which brought our investment balance to zero at December 31, 2012 which triggered the suspension of recognition of additional losses;

• Operating income from our WRT Fenway-Wateridge investment, which closed December 21, 2012, was $470,000; and

• Operating income from our Marc Realty investments increased by $353,000 primarily as a result of the sale of six investments since March 2012 which were operating at a loss.

Operating income from loan assets, which we define as all items of income and expense directly derived from or incurred by this segment before general and administrative and interest expense, increased by $3,237,000 as compared to the prior year period. The increase was due primarily to:

• a $4,424,000 increase in net earnings from our equity investment loan assets primarily due to earnings of $3,761,000 on our RE CDO Management investment which resulted from the sale of subordinated interests in collateralized debt obligation entities held by this venture; and

• a $2,756,000 increase in interest income as a result of our 2012 origination and acquisition activity, primarily our Queensridge Tower loan which generated $1,697,000 of interest income during the six months ended June 30, 2013.

Partially offset by:

• a $4,082,000 decrease in discount accretion due primarily to the payoff at par in May 2012 of our 160 Spear and Magazine loans which had been acquired at a discount.

Operating income from REIT securities, which we define as all items of income and expense directly derived from or incurred by this segment before interest expense, decreased by $4,768,000 as compared to the prior year period. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in unrealized gain on securities carried at fair value primarily as a result of fluctuations of our holdings in and the market price of shares of Cedar Realty Trust.

State income taxes were $142,000 and $147,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively, due primarily to our anticipated taxable income for state purposes, after deductions for dividends paid and after the utilization of net operating loss carryforwards, where applicable.

Income from discontinued operations for the three months ended June 30, 2013 was $6,568,000 as compared to income of $323,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2012. The increase was primarily due to a gain of $6,752,000 recognized on the sale of the Deer Valley property in 2013. This increase was partially offset by a $154,000 impairment charge on the Denton property recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Funds From Operations

We have adopted the revised definition of Funds from Operations (“FFO”), adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”). Management considers FFO to be an appropriate measure of performance of a REIT. We calculate FFO by adjusting net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP, including non-recurring items), for gains (or losses) from sales of properties, real estate related depreciation and amortization, and adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and ventures and impairments. Management believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of our historical operating results, FFO should be considered in conjunction with net income as presented in the consolidated interim financial statements included elsewhere herein. Management considers FFO to be a useful measure for reviewing our comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help one compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to different companies.

Our calculation of FFO may not be directly comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or similar real estate companies that have not adopted the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently. FFO is not a GAAP financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss), the most directly comparable financial measure of our performance calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, as an indication of our performance. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP and is not a measure of liquidity or an indicator of our ability to pay dividends. We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be compared with our reported net income and considered in addition to cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated interim financial statements.

Based on the October 31, 2011 and January 6, 2012 updated guidance on reporting FFO, we have excluded impairment losses on depreciable real estate as well as other-than-temporary impairment on real estate equity method joint ventures in the calculations of FFO and have restated prior period calculations to be consistent with this presentation. The other-than-temporary impairments have been excluded as they relate to decreases in the fair value of depreciable real estate held by the investee.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

We have exposure to fluctuations in market interest rates. Market interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors beyond our control. Various financial vehicles exist which would allow management to partially mitigate the potential negative effects of interest rate fluctuations on our cash flow and earnings.

Our liabilities include both fixed and variable rate debt. We seek to limit our risk to interest rate fluctuations through match financing on our loan assets as well as through hedging transactions.

The table below presents information about the Trust’s derivative financial instruments at June 30, 2013 (in thousands):

Type	Maturity	Strike Rate			Notional Amount of Hedge		Cost of Hedge		Estimated Fair Value of Hedge
Cap	October 2014		1.00	%	$	5,753	$	174	$	1
Cap	May 2013		1.25	%		51,982		196		—
Cap	May 2014		1.75	%		51,982		434		—
Cap	August 2014		0.50	%		12,955		22		5
Swap	May 2016		0.50	%		42,922		—		132

The fair value of our mortgage loans payable and secured financings, based on discounted cash flows at the current rate at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings for the remaining term of such debt, was less than its carrying value by $9,138,000 and $9,319,000 at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. The fair value of our Senior Notes, based on quoted market prices, was greater than its carrying value by $4,002,000 and $2,933,000 at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively.

The following table shows what the annual effect a change in the LIBOR rate would have on interest expense based upon the balances in variable rate debt at June 30, 2013 (in thousands):

	Change in LIBOR (2)
	-0.19%			1%		2%		3%
Change in consolidated interest expense	$	(11	)	$	148	$	436	$	463
Pro-rata share of change in interest expense of debt on non-consolidated entities (1)		(23	)		440		2,153		3,933
(Increase) decrease in net income	$	(34	)	$	588	$	2,589	$	4,396

(1) Represents our pro-rata share of a change in interest expense in our Marc Realty, Sealy and 701 Seventh equity investments.

(2) The one-month LIBOR rate at June 30, 2013 was 0.19465%.

The Trust’s equity investment in Vintage, which is reported on a 30 day lag, holds floating rate debt of approximately $171,194,000 and bears interest at a rate indexed to the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association Municipal Swap Index (SIFMA). The following table shows what the annual effect a change in the SIFMA rate would have on property level interest expense based upon the balances in variable rate debt at May 31, 2013 (in thousands):

	Change in SIFMA (1)
	-0.12%			1%		2%		3%
Pro-rata share of change in interest expense on Vintage debt	$	(111	)	$	925	$	1,850	$	2,776
(Increase) decrease in net income	$	(111	)	$	925	$	1,850	$	2,776

(1) The one-month SIFMA rate at May 31, 2013 was 0.12%.

We may utilize various financial instruments to mitigate the potential negative impact of interest rate fluctuations on our cash flows and earnings, including hedging strategies, depending on our analysis of the interest rate environment and the costs and risks of such strategies.

The following table shows what the annual effect a change in the LIBOR rate would have on interest income based upon our variable rate loan assets at June 30, 2013 (in thousands):

	Change in LIBOR (1)
	-0.19%			1%		2%		3%
Change in consolidated interest income	$	(4	)	$	113	$	274	$	498
Pro-rata share of change in interest income of loan assets in non-consolidated entities		(19	)		100		200		300
Increase (decrease) in net income	$	(23	)	$	213	$	474	$	798

(1) The one-month LIBOR rate at June 30, 2013 was 0.19465%.

Market Value Risk

Our hedge transactions using derivative instruments also involve certain additional risks such as counterparty credit risk, the enforceability of hedging contracts and the risk that unanticipated and significant changes in interest rates will cause a significant loss of basis in the contract. We believe that there is a low likelihood that these counterparties will fail to meet their obligations. There can be no assurance that we will adequately protect against the foregoing risks.
