      United Dominion Realty Trust, Inc. is a self-administered real estate investment trust, or REIT, that owns, acquires, renovates, develops, and manages middle-market apartment communities nationwide. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of United Dominion and its subsidiaries, including United Dominion Realty, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), and Heritage Communities L.P. (the “Heritage OP”) (collectively, “United Dominion”). As of September 30, 2005, there were 166,061,749 units in the Operating Partnership outstanding, of which 156,118,178 units or 94.0% were owned by United Dominion and 9,943,571 units or 6.0% were owned by limited partners (of which 1,791,329 are owned by the holders of the Series A OPPS, see Note 6). As of September 30, 2005, there were 5,542,200 units in the Heritage OP outstanding, of which 5,201,355 units or 93.9% were owned by United Dominion and 340,845 units or 6.1% were owned by limited partners. The consolidated financial statements of United Dominion include the minority interests of the unitholders in the Operating Partnership and the Heritage OP. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
      The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States have been condensed or omitted according to such rules and regulations, although management believes that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. The accompanying consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and related notes appearing in United Dominion’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as updated by the Current Report on Form 8-K filed August 11, 2005.
      In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are necessary for the fair presentation of financial position at September 30, 2005 and results of operations for the interim periods ended September 30, 2005 and 2004. Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. The interim results presented are not necessarily indicative of results that can be expected for a full year.
      The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual amounts realized or paid could differ from those estimates. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation.
      United Dominion adopted the fair-value-based method of accounting for share-based payments effective January 1, 2004 using the prospective method described in FASB Statement No. 148, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation — Transition and Disclosure.” Currently, United Dominion uses the Black-Scholes-Merton formula to estimate the value of stock options granted to employees and expects to continue to use this acceptable option valuation model upon the required adoption of Statement 123(R) on January 1, 2006. Because Statement 123(R) must be applied not only to new awards but to previously granted awards that are not fully vested on the effective date, and because United Dominion adopted Statement 123 using the prospective transition method (which applied only to awards granted, modified or settled after the adoption date), compensation cost for some previously granted awards that were not recognized under Statement 123 will be recognized under Statement 123(R).

      In June 2005, the FASB ratified its consensus in EITF Issue 04-05, “Determining Whether a General Partner, or the General Partners as a Group, Controls a Limited Partnership or Similar Entity When the Limited Partners Have Certain Rights” (Issue 04-05). The effective date for Issue 04-05 is June 29, 2005 for all new or modified partnerships and January 1, 2006 for our remaining partnerships for the applicable provisions. The adoption of the provisions of EITF 04-05 is not anticipated to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
2. REAL ESTATE HELD FOR INVESTMENT
      At September 30, 2005, there are 253 communities with 74,215 apartment homes classified as real estate held for investment. The following table summarizes the components of real estate held for investment (dollars in thousands):

3. INCOME FROM DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
      FASB Statement No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets” (FAS 144) requires, among other things, that the primary assets and liabilities and the results of operations of United Dominion’s real properties which have been sold subsequent to January 1, 2002, or are held for disposition subsequent to January 1, 2002, be classified as discontinued operations and segregated in United Dominion’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Balance Sheets. Properties classified as real estate held for disposition generally represent properties that are under contract for sale and are expected to close within the next twelve months.
      For purposes of these financial statements, FAS 144 results in the presentation of the primary assets and liabilities and the net operating results of those properties sold or classified as held for disposition through September 30, 2005, as discontinued operations for all periods presented. The adoption of FAS 144 does not have an impact on net income available to common stockholders. FAS 144 only results in the reclassification of the operating results of all properties sold or classified as held for disposition through September 30, 2005, within the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, and the reclassification of the assets and liabilities within the Consolidated Balance Sheets for 2005 and 2004.
      For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, United Dominion sold 21 communities with 6,002 apartment homes, 102 condominiums from three communities with a total of 313 condominiums, and one parcel of land. We recognized gains for financial reporting purposes of $66.7 million on these sales. At September 30, 2005, United Dominion had one community with a total of 350 apartment homes and a net book value of $23.1 million, two communities with a total of 187 condominiums and a net book value of $23.5 million, and two parcels of land with a net book value of $5.1 million included in real estate held for disposition. In conjunction with the sale of ten communities in July 2005, we received short-term notes for $124.7 million that bear interest at 6.75% and have maturities ranging from September 2005 to July 2006. As of

UNITED DOMINION REALTY TRUST, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
September 30, 2005, the balance on the notes receivable was $90.9 million. We recognized gains for financial reporting purposes of $6.9 million and will recognize $14.7 million in additional gains as the notes receivable mature. For the year ended December 31, 2004, United Dominion sold 19 communities with a total of 5,425 apartment homes, 24 condominiums from a community of 36 condominiums, and one parcel of land. The results of operations for these properties and the interest expense associated with the secured debt on these properties are classified on the Consolidated Statements of Operations in the line item titled “Income from discontinued operations, net of minority interests.”
      United Dominion has elected Taxable REIT Subsidiary (“TRS”) status for certain of its corporate subsidiaries, primarily those engaged in condominium conversion and sale activities. United Dominion recognized a provision for income taxes of $2.4 million and $3.8 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, respectively. These amounts were classified as reductions of the net gain on sale of depreciable property in the accompanying consolidated statement of operations.

      During the second quarter of 2005, we elected to convert a $75 million variable rate debt placement to a fixed rate of 4.86%. The rate, currently at 4.33%, will float until December 1, 2005 and then convert to a 7-year fixed rate of 4.86%.

(a) During the second quarter of 2005, United Dominion amended and restated its $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility and extended the term an additional two years. The credit facility matures on May 31, 2008, and at United Dominion’s option, can be extended for an additional year. United Dominion has the right to increase the credit facility to $750 million if the initial lenders increase their commitments or we receive commitments from additional lenders. Based on United Dominion’s current credit ratings, the credit facility bears interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 57.5 basis points, which represents a 12.5 basis point reduction to the previous unsecured revolver, and the facility fee was reduced from 20 basis points to 15 basis points. Under a competitive bid feature and for so long as United Dominion maintains an Investment Grade Rating, United Dominion has the right to bid out 100% of the commitment amount.
 
(b) Represents deferred gains from the termination of interest rate risk management agreements.

6. EARNINGS PER SHARE
      Basic earnings per common share is computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per common share is computed based upon common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive stock options and other potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. The dilutive effect of stock options and other potentially dilutive common stock equivalents is determined using the treasury stock method based on United Dominion’s average stock price.
      The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share for the periods presented, (dollars in thousands, except per share data):
                                   
    Three Months Ended   Nine Months Ended

Diluted earnings per share

      The effect of the conversion of the operating partnership units, Series A Out-Performance Partnership Shares, and convertible preferred stock is not dilutive and is therefore not included in the above calculations. If the operating partnership units were converted to common stock, the additional shares of common stock outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 would be 8,503,993 and 8,509,748 weighted average common shares, and 8,677,459 and 8,681,292 weighted average common shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004. If the Series A Out-Performance Partnership Shares were converted to common stock, the additional shares of common stock outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004 would be 1,791,329 weighted average common shares. If the convertible preferred stock were converted to common stock, the additional shares of common stock outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 would be 2,803,812 weighted average common shares, and 6,502,140 weighted average common shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, respectively.
7. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
      Total comprehensive income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005 and 2004, was $15.1 million and $82.5 million for 2005 and $27.8 million and $73.5 million for 2004, respectively. The

UNITED DOMINION REALTY TRUST, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
difference between net income and total comprehensive income is primarily due to the fair value accounting for interest rate swaps in 2004.
8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Commitments
      United Dominion is committed to completing its real estate under development, which has an estimated cost to complete of $64.2 million at September 30, 2005.
Contingencies
Series B Out-Performance Program
      In May 2003, the stockholders of United Dominion approved the Series B Out-Performance Program (the “Series B Program”) pursuant to which certain executive officers of United Dominion (the “Series B Participants”) were given the opportunity to invest indirectly in United Dominion by purchasing interests in a limited liability company (the “Series B LLC”), the only asset of which is a special class of partnership units of United Dominion Realty, L.P. (“Series B OPPSs”). The purchase price for the Series B OPPSs was determined by United Dominion’s board of directors to be $1 million, assuming 100% participation, and was based upon the advice of an independent valuation expert. The Series B Program measured the cumulative total return on our common stock over the 24-month period from June 1, 2003 to May 31, 2005.
      The Series B Program was designed to provide participants with the possibility of substantial returns on their investment if the total cumulative return on United Dominion’s common stock, as measured by the cumulative amount of dividends paid plus share price appreciation during the measurement period (a) exceeded the cumulative total return of the Morgan Stanley REIT Index peer group index over the same period; and (b) was at least the equivalent of a 22% total return, or 11% annualized.
      At the conclusion of the measurement period on May 31, 2005, the total cumulative return on our common stock over the 24-month period did not satisfy these criteria, and therefore, the Series B LLC as holder of the Series B OPPSs did not receive (for the indirect benefit of the Series B Participants as holders of interests in the Series B LLC) distributions and allocations of income and loss from United Dominion Realty, L.P. (accounted for on a consistent basis with all other OP Units) equal to the distributions and allocations that would be received on the number of OP Units. As a result, the investment made by the holders of the Series B OPPSs was forfeited.
Series C Out-Performance Program
      In May 2005, the stockholders of United Dominion approved the Series C Out-Performance Program (the “Series C Program”) pursuant to which certain executive officers and other key employees of United Dominion (the “Series C Participants”) were given the opportunity to invest indirectly in United Dominion by purchasing interests in UDR Out-Performance III, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Series C LLC”), the only asset of which is a special class of partnership units of United Dominion Realty, L.P. (“Series C OPPSs”). The purchase price for the Series C OPPSs was determined by the Compensation Committee of United Dominion’s board of directors to be $750,000, assuming 100% participation, and was based upon the advice of an independent valuation expert. The Series C Program will measure the cumulative total return on our common stock over the 36-month period from June 1, 2005 to May 30, 2008.
      The Series C Program is designed to provide participants with the possibility of substantial returns on their investment if the total cumulative return on United Dominion’s common stock, as measured by the

12


 

UNITED DOMINION REALTY TRUST, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
cumulative amount of dividends paid plus share price appreciation during the measurement period is at least the equivalent of a 36% total return, or 12% annualized (“Minimum Return”).
      At the conclusion of the measurement period, if the total cumulative return on our common stock satisfies these criteria, the Series C LLC as holder of the Series C OPPSs will receive (for the indirect benefit of the Series C Participants as holders of interests in the Series C LLC) distributions and allocations of income and loss from United Dominion Realty, L.P. equal to the distributions and allocations that would be received on the number of OP Units obtained by:
        i. determining the amount by which the cumulative total return of United Dominion’s common stock over the measurement period exceeds the Minimum Return (such excess being the “Excess Return”);
 
        ii. multiplying 2% of the Excess Return by United Dominion’s market capitalization (defined as the average number of shares outstanding over the 36-month period, including common stock, OP Units, and common stock equivalents) multiplied by the daily closing price of United Dominion’s common stock, up to a maximum of 1% of market capitalization; and
 
        iii. dividing the number obtained in (ii) by the market value of one share of United Dominion’s common stock on the valuation date, determined by the volume-weighted average price per day of common stock for the 20 trading days immediately preceding the valuation date.
      If, on the valuation date, the cumulative total return of United Dominion’s common stock does not meet the Minimum Return, then the Series C Participants will forfeit their entire initial investment.
Litigation and Legal Matters
      United Dominion is subject to various legal proceedings and claims arising in the ordinary course of business. United Dominion cannot determine the ultimate liability with respect to such legal proceedings and claims at this time. United Dominion believes that such liability, to the extent not provided for through insurance or otherwise, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flow.
9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
      For the period from October 22, 2005 to November 3, 2005, we have repurchased 627,500 shares of our common stock under our stock repurchase program at an average share price of $21.62.

Business Overview
      We are a real estate investment trust, or REIT, that owns, acquires, renovates, develops, and manages middle-market apartment communities nationwide. We were formed in 1972 as a Virginia corporation. In June 2003, we changed our state of incorporation from Virginia to Maryland. Our subsidiaries include two operating partnerships, Heritage Communities L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and United Dominion Realty, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this Report to “we,” “us,” “our,” “the company,” or “United Dominion” refer collectively to United Dominion Realty Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
      At September 30, 2005, our portfolio included 256 communities with 74,752 apartment homes nationwide. The following table summarizes our market information by major geographic markets (includes real estate held for disposition, real estate under development, and land, but excludes commercial properties):

Liquidity and Capital Resources
      Liquidity is the ability to meet present and future financial obligations either through operating cash flows, the sale or maturity of existing assets, or by the acquisition of additional funds through capital management. Both the coordination of asset and liability maturities and effective capital management are important to the maintenance of liquidity. Our primary source of liquidity is our cash flow from operations as determined by rental rates, occupancy levels, and operating expenses related to our portfolio of apartment homes. We routinely use our unsecured bank credit facility to temporarily fund certain investing and financing activities prior to arranging for longer-term financing. During the past several years, proceeds from the sale of real estate have been used for both investing and financing activities.
      We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements generally through net cash provided by operations and borrowings under credit arrangements. We expect to meet certain long-term liquidity requirements such as scheduled debt maturities, the repayment of financing on development activities, and potential property acquisitions, through long-term secured and unsecured borrowings, the disposition of properties, the disposition of condominiums, and the issuance of additional debt or equity securities. We believe that our net cash provided by operations will continue to be adequate to meet both operating requirements and the payment of dividends by the company in accordance with REIT requirements in both the short- and long-term. Likewise, the budgeted expenditures for improvements and renovations of certain properties are expected to be funded from property operations.

      We have a shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission which provides for the issuance of up to an aggregate of $1.5 billion in common shares, preferred shares, and debt securities to facilitate future financing activities in the public capital markets. During the third quarter of 2005, we completed one financing activity under our $1.5 billion shelf registration statement. This activity is summarized in the section titled “Financing Activities” below. As of September 30, 2005, approximately $0.9 billion of equity and debt securities remained available for use under the shelf registration statement. Access to capital markets is dependent on market conditions at the time of issuance.
      In October 2004, we filed a prospectus supplement under the Securities Act of 1933 relating to the offering of up to 5 million shares of our common stock that we may issue and sell through an agent from time to time in “at the market offerings,” as defined in Rule 415 of the Securities Act of 1933. Any sales of these shares will be made under our $1.5 billion shelf registration statement pursuant to a sales agreement that we entered into with the agent in July 2003. The sales price of the common stock that may be sold under the sales agreement will be no lower than the minimum price designated by us prior to the sale. During the fourth quarter of 2004, we sold a total of 472,000 shares of common stock pursuant to the sales agreement at a weighted average sales price of $20.36, for net proceeds to us of approximately $9.4 million. We did not sell any shares of common stock under the sales agreement during the nine months ended September 30, 2005.
Future Capital Needs
      Future development expenditures are expected to be funded with proceeds from the sale of property, with construction loans, through joint ventures and, to a lesser extent, with cash flows provided by operating activities. Acquisition activity in strategic markets is expected to be largely financed through the issuance of equity and debt securities, the issuance of operating partnership units, the assumption or placement of secured and/or unsecured debt, and by the reinvestment of proceeds from the sale of properties.
      During the remainder of 2005, we have approximately $1.5 million of secured debt and $49.9 million of unsecured debt maturing and we anticipate repaying that debt with proceeds from borrowings under our secured or unsecured credit facilities, or the issuance of new unsecured debt securities or equity.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
      Our critical accounting policies are those having the most impact on the reporting of our financial condition and results and those requiring significant judgments and estimates. These policies include those related to (1) capital expenditures, (2) impairment of long-lived assets, and (3) real estate investment properties. Our critical accounting policies are described in more detail in the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies from those reported in our 2004 Annual Report on Form 10-K. With respect to these critical accounting policies, management believes that the application of judgments and assessments is consistently applied and produces financial information that fairly depicts the results of operations for all periods presented.
Statements of Cash Flow
      The following discussion explains the changes in net cash provided by operating and financing activities and net cash used in investing activities that are presented in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Operating Activities
      For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, our cash flow provided by operating activities was $170.5 million compared to $173.9 million for the same period in 2004. The slight decrease in cash flow

16


 

from operating activities resulted primarily from a $31.4 million increase in interest expense and a $1.6 million net increase in operating assets/liabilities for the period that was offset by a $30.0 million increase in property operating income from our apartment community portfolio (see discussion under “Apartment Community Operations”).
Investing Activities
      For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, net cash used in investing activities was $177.8 million compared to $318.7 million for the same period in 2004. Changes in the level of investing activities from period to period reflects our strategy as it relates to our acquisition, capital expenditure, development, and disposition programs, as well as the impact of the capital market environment on these activities, all of which are discussed in further detail below.
Acquisitions
      During the nine months ended September 30, 2005, we acquired five apartment communities with 2,021 apartment homes and one parcel of land. Our long-term strategic plan is to achieve greater operating efficiencies by investing in fewer, more concentrated markets. As a result, we have been expanding our interests in the fast growing Southern California, Florida, and Metropolitan DC markets over the past two years. During 2005, we plan to continue to channel new investments into those markets we believe will provide the best investment returns. Markets will be targeted based upon defined criteria including past performance, expected job growth, current and anticipated housing supply and demand, and the ability to attract and support household formation.
Capital Expenditures
      In conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, we capitalize those expenditures related to acquiring new assets, materially enhancing the value of an existing asset, or substantially extending the useful life of an existing asset. Expenditures necessary to maintain an existing property in ordinary operating condition are expensed as incurred.
      During the first nine months of 2005, we spent $96.9 million or $1,270 per home on capital expenditures for all of our communities, excluding development and commercial properties. These capital improvements included turnover related expenditures for floor coverings and appliances, other recurring capital expenditures such as HVAC equipment, roofs, siding, parking lots, and other non-revenue enhancing capital expenditures, which aggregated $29.3 million or $383 per home. In addition, revenue enhancing capital expenditures, kitchen and bath upgrades, and other extensive interior upgrades totaled $56.3 million or $739 per home and major renovations totaled $11.3 million or $148 per home for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.

      The following table outlines capital expenditures and repair and maintenance costs for all of our communities, excluding real estate under development and commercial properties for the periods presented:

Total expenditures
  $ 130,223     $ 82,677       57.5%     $ 1,708     $ 1,091       56.7%  
                                     
      Total capital improvements increased $45.6 million or $593 per home for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 compared to the same period in 2004. This increase was attributable to $11.0 million of major renovations at certain of our properties. These renovations may include the re-wiring and/or re-plumbing of an entire building as well as major structural changes and/or architectural revisions to existing buildings. The increase was also attributable to an additional $31.0 million being invested in revenue enhancing improvements. We will continue to selectively add revenue enhancing improvements which we believe will provide a return on investment substantially in excess of our cost of capital. Recurring capital expenditures during 2005 are currently expected to be approximately $510 per home.
Real Estate Under Development
      Development activity is focused in core markets in which we have strong operations in place. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, we invested approximately $35.0 million on development projects, an increase of $21.6 million from $13.4 million for the same period in 2004.
      The following projects were under development as of September 30, 2005:

      In addition, we own five parcels of land that we continue to hold for future development that had a carrying value at September 30, 2005 of $21.9 million.

Disposition of Investments
      For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, United Dominion sold 21 communities with 6,002 apartment homes and 102 condominiums from three communities with a total of 313 condominiums for a gross consideration of $340.3 million. In addition, we sold one parcel of land for $0.9 million. We recognized gains for financial reporting purposes of $66.7 million on these sales. Proceeds from the sales were used primarily to reduce debt and acquire additional communities. In connection with our third quarter portfolio sale of ten communities in Texas and North Carolina, we received short-term notes of $124.7 million. These notes have maturities ranging from September 2005 to July 2006. As of September 30, 2005, the outstanding balance on these notes was $90.9 million, bearing interest at 6.75%.
      During 2005, we plan to continue to pursue our strategy of selling properties where long-term growth prospects are limited and redeploying capital into properties that would enhance future growth rates and economies of scale. We intend to use the proceeds from 2005 dispositions to reduce debt, acquire communities, and fund development activity.
Financing Activities
      Net cash provided by financing activities during the nine months ended September 30, 2005, was $4.9 million compared to $141.9 million for the same period in 2004. As part of the plan to improve our balance sheet, we utilized proceeds from dispositions, equity and debt offerings, and refinancings to extend maturities, pay down existing debt, and purchase new properties.
      The following is a summary of our financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2005:
  •  Repaid $132.8 million of secured debt and $21.1 million of unsecured debt, and incurred $8.5 million in prepayment penalties.
 
  •  Sold $50 million aggregate principal amount of 5.25% senior unsecured notes due January 2015 in February 2005 under our medium-term note program. These notes represent a re-opening of the 5.25% senior unsecured notes due January 2015 that were issued in November 2004, and these notes will constitute a single series of notes. The February 2005 issuance of these notes brought the aggregate principal amount of the 5.25% senior unsecured notes to $150 million. The net proceeds of approximately $50 million were used for debt repayment and to fund the acquisition of apartment communities.
 
  •  Sold our shares in Rent.com, a leading Internet listing web site in the apartment and rental housing industry, in February 2005. As a result, United Dominion received cash proceeds and recorded a one-time gain of $12.3 million on the sale. As part of the transaction, an additional $0.8 million was placed in escrow and will be recorded as revenue when received.
 
  •  Sold $50 million aggregate principal amount of 5.25% senior unsecured notes due January 2015 in March 2005 under our medium-term note program. These notes represent a re-opening of the 5.25% senior unsecured notes due January 2015 that were issued in November 2004, and these notes constitute a single series of notes. The March 2005 issuance of these notes brought the aggregate principal amount of the 5.25% senior unsecured notes to $200 million. The net proceeds of approximately $50 million were used for debt repayment and to fund the acquisition of apartment communities.

  •  Amended and restated our $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility and extended the term an additional two years. The credit facility matures on May 31, 2008, and, at United Dominion’s option, can be extended for an additional year. United Dominion has the right to increase the credit facility to $750 million if the initial lenders increase their commitments or we receive commitments from additional lenders. Based on United Dominion’s current credit ratings, the credit facility bears interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 57.5 basis points, which represents a 12.5 basis point reduction to the previous unsecured revolver, and the facility fee was reduced from 20 basis points to 15 basis points. Under a competitive bid feature and for so long as United Dominion maintains an Investment Grade Rating, United Dominion has the right to bid out 100% of the commitment amount.
 
  •  Elected to convert a $75 million variable rate debt facility to a fixed rate of 4.86% in May 2005. The rate, currently at 4.33%, will float until December 1, 2005, and then convert to a 7-year fixed rate of 4.86%.
 
  •  Sold $100 million aggregate principal amount of 5.25% medium-term notes due January 2016 in September 2005 under our medium-term note program. The net proceeds of approximately $100 million were used for debt repayment.
Credit Facilities
      We have four secured revolving credit facilities with Fannie Mae with an aggregate commitment of $860 million. As of September 30, 2005, $656.3 million was outstanding under the Fannie Mae credit facilities leaving $203.7 million of unused capacity. The Fannie Mae credit facilities are for an initial term of ten years, bear interest at floating and fixed rates, and can be extended for an additional five years at our discretion. We have $288.9 million of the funded balance fixed at a weighted average interest rate of 6.4%. The remaining balance on these facilities is currently at a weighted average variable rate of 4.2%.
      We have a $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility that matures in May 2008, and, at United Dominion’s option, can be extended an additional year. United Dominion has the right to increase the credit facility to $750 million under certain circumstances. Based on our current credit ratings, the credit facility bears interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 57.5 basis points. As of September 30, 2005, $313.1 million was outstanding under the credit facility leaving $186.9 million of unused capacity.
      The Fannie Mae credit facility and the bank revolving credit facility are subject to customary financial covenants and limitations.

Funds from Operations
      Funds from operations, or FFO, is defined as net income (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We compute FFO for all periods presented in accordance with the recommendations set forth by

20


 

the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trust’s (“NAREIT”) April 1, 2002 White Paper. We consider FFO in evaluating property acquisitions and our operating performance, and believe that FFO should be considered along with, but not as an alternative to, net income as a measure of our operating performance. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs.
      Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values instead have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient by themselves. Thus, NAREIT created FFO as a supplemental measure of REIT operating performance and defines FFO as net income (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The use of FFO, combined with the required presentations, has been fundamentally beneficial, improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. We generally consider FFO to be a useful measure for reviewing our comparative operating and financial performance (although FFO should be reviewed in conjunction with net income which remains the primary measure of performance) because by excluding gains or losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization, FFO can help one compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. We believe that FFO is the best measure of economic profitability for real estate investment trusts.

    150,473       145,168       150,299       145,038  
      In the computation of diluted FFO, OP units, out-performance partnership shares, and the shares of Series D Cumulative Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock and Series E Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock are dilutive; therefore, they are included in the diluted share count. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2004, distributions to preferred stockholders exclude $1.6 million and $4.7 million related to premiums on preferred stock conversions.
      Net incremental gains on the sale of condominiums is defined as net sales proceeds less a tax provision and the gross investment basis of the asset before accumulated depreciation. We consider FFO with gains/losses on the sale of condominiums to be a meaningful supplemental measure of performance because the short-term use of funds produce a profit that differs from the traditional long-term investment in real estate for REITs.

      FFO also does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and therefore should not be considered an alternative to net cash flows from operating activities, as determined by generally accepted accounting principles, as a measure of liquidity.

Results of Operations
      The following discussion includes the results of both continuing and discontinued operations for the periods presented.

Net Income Available to Common Stockholders
      Net income available to common stockholders was $11.3 million ($0.08 per diluted share) for the three months ended September 30, 2005, compared to $21.2 million ($0.17 per diluted share) for the same period in the prior year. The decrease for the three months ended September 30, 2005 when compared to the same period in 2004, resulted primarily from the following items, all of which are discussed in further detail elsewhere within this Report:
  •  an $11.4 million increase in interest expense,
 
  •  an $8.5 million increase in real estate depreciation and amortization expense,
 
  •  $7.4 million less in gains recognized from the sale of depreciable property, and
 
  •  a $1.1 million increase in general and administrative expenses.
      These decreases in income were partially offset by a $7.8 million increase in apartment community operating results, a $1.6 million decrease in premiums paid on preferred stock conversions, a $1.5 million increase in non-property income, a $1.3 million decrease in preferred stock distributions, and an $0.8 million decrease in minority interest expense during the third quarter of 2005 when compared to the same period in 2004. In addition, a charge of $5.5 million for hurricane related expenses was recorded in the third quarter of 2004.
      Net income available to common stockholders was $71.0 million ($0.52 per diluted share) for the nine months ended September 30, 2005, compared to $51.7 million ($0.40 per diluted share) for the same period in the prior year. The increase for the nine months ended September 30, 2005 when compared to the same period in 2004 resulted primarily from the following items, all of which are discussed in further detail elsewhere within this Report:
  •  $31.4 million more in gains recognized from the sale of depreciable property,
 
  •  a $30.0 million increase in apartment community operating results,
 
  •  a $13.1 million increase in non-property income,
 
  •  a $5.5 million charge recorded for hurricane related expense in 2004,
 
  •  a $4.7 million decrease in premiums paid on preferred stock conversions, and
 
  •  $3.7 million less in preferred stock distributions.
      These increases in income were partially offset by a $31.4 million increase in interest expense, a $25.8 million increase in real estate depreciation and amortization expense, an $8.5 million increase in losses on early debt retirement, and a $3.6 million increase in general and administrative expenses during the first nine months of 2005 when compared to the same period in 2004.

Same Communities
      Our same communities (those communities acquired, developed, and stabilized prior to June 30, 2004 and held on September 30, 2005, which consisted of 59,248 apartment homes) provided 73% of our property operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.
      For the third quarter of 2005, same community property operating income increased 2.3% or $1.9 million compared to the same period in 2004. The increase in property operating income was primarily attributable to a 4.1% or $5.5 million increase in revenues from rental and other income that was offset by a 6.9% or $3.6 million increase in operating expenses. The increase in revenues from rental and other income was primarily driven by a 2.4% or $3.4 million increase in rental rates, an 18% or $0.7 million decrease in concession expense, a 5.8% or $0.5 million decrease in vacancy loss, and an 8.5%

25


 

or $0.8 million increase in utility reimbursement income and fee income. Physical occupancy increased 0.4% to 94.6%.
      The increase in property operating expenses was primarily driven by a 58.7% or $1.1 million increase in insurance costs, a 6.3% or $0.8 million increase in real estate taxes, a 3.4% or $0.5 million increase in personnel costs, an 8.1% or $0.4 million increase in administrative and marketing costs, a 3.6% or $0.3 million increase in repair and maintenance costs, a 62.3% or $0.3 million increase in incentive compensation expense, and a 2.0% or $0.2 million increase in utility expense.
      As a result of the percentage changes in property rental income and property operating expenses, the operating margin (property operating income divided by property rental income) decreased 1.0% to 60.6%.
      For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, same community property operating income increased 3.0% or $7.0 million compared to the same period in 2004. The increase in property operating income was primarily attributable to a 3.3% or $12.2 million increase in revenues from rental and other income that was offset by a 3.7% or $5.2 million increase in operating expenses. The increase in revenues from rental and other income was primarily driven by a 1.7% or $6.6 million increase in rental rates, an 8.1% or $2.0 million decrease in vacancy loss, a 17.2% or $1.8 million decrease in concession expense, a 14.0% or $0.2 million decrease in bad debt, and a 6.4% or $1.7 million increase in utility reimbursement income and fee income. Physical occupancy increased 0.6% to 94.4%.
      The increase in property operating expenses was primarily driven by a 4.1% or $1.6 million increase in personnel costs, a 3.1% or $1.1 million increase in real estate taxes, a 6.0% or $0.8 million increase in administrative and marketing costs, a 72.6% or $0.7 million increase in incentive compensation, a 1.6% or $0.4 million increase in utilities expenses, a 1.0% or $0.3 million increase in repair and maintenance costs, and a 2.8% or $0.2 million increase in insurance costs.
      As a result of the percentage changes in property rental income and property operating expenses, the operating margin decreased 0.2% to 61.4%.
Non-Mature Communities
      The remaining 27% of our property operating income during the first nine months of 2005 was generated from communities that we classify as “non-mature communities” (primarily those communities acquired or developed in 2004 and 2005, sold properties, and those properties classified as real estate held for disposition). The 38 communities with 11,914 apartment homes that we acquired in the fourth quarter of 2003, and in 2004 and 2005 provided $62.4 million of property operating income. The 21 communities with 6,002 apartment homes and 64 condominiums sold during the first nine months of 2005 provided $8.1 million of property operating income. In addition, our development communities, which included 178 apartment homes constructed since January 1, 2003, provided $0.7 million of property operating income during 2005, the one community with 350 apartment homes and two communities with a total of 187 condominiums classified as real estate held for disposition provided $2.4 million of property operating income, and other non-mature communities provided $12.3 million of property operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2005.
Real Estate Depreciation and Amortization
      For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, real estate depreciation and amortization on both continuing and discontinued operations increased 19.2% or $8.5 million and 19.8% or $25.8 million, respectively, compared to the same period in 2004, primarily due to the overall increase in the weighted average number of apartment homes, the significant increase in per home acquisition cost compared to the existing portfolio, and other capital expenditures.
Interest Expense
      For the three months ended September 30, 2005, interest expense on both continuing and discontinued operations increased 37.9% or $11.4 million from the same period in 2004 primarily due to

26


 

the issuance of debt. For the three months ended September 30, 2005, the weighted average amount of debt outstanding increased 30.6% or $0.7 billion compared to the same period in 2004 and the weighted average interest rate increased from 4.8% to 5.3% during 2005. The weighted average amount of debt outstanding during 2005 is higher than 2004 as acquisition costs in 2004 and in 2005 have been funded, in most part, by the issuance of debt. The increase in the weighted average interest rate during 2005 reflects short-term bank borrowings and variable rate debt that had higher interest rates when compared to the prior year.
      For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, interest expense on both continuing and discontinued operations increased 35.6% or $31.4 million from the same period in 2004 primarily due to the issuance of debt. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, the weighted average amount of debt outstanding increased 30.9% or $0.7 billion compared to the same period in 2004 and the weighted average interest rate increased from 4.9% to 5.2% during 2005. The weighted average amount of debt outstanding during 2005 is higher than 2004 as acquisition costs in 2004 and in 2005 have been funded, in most part, by the issuance of debt. The increase in the weighted average interest rate during 2005 reflects short-term bank borrowings and variable rate debt that had higher interest rates when compared to the prior year.
General and Administrative
      For the three months ended September 30, 2005, general and administrative expenses increased $1.1 million or 27.5% compared to the same period in 2004. This increase was primarily due to an increase in personnel and incentive compensation expense of $0.4 million or 8.4% and $0.3 million related to an operating lease on an airplane. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, general and administrative expenses increased $3.6 million or 27.1% over the comparable period in 2004 primarily as a result of an increase in personnel and incentive compensation costs.
Gains on Sales of Land and Depreciable Property
      For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2005, we recognized gains for financial reporting purposes of $12.9 million and $66.7 million compared to $20.2 million and $35.2 million for the comparable period in 2004. Changes in the level of gains recognized from period to period reflect the changing level of our divestiture activity from period to period, as well as the extent of gains related to specific properties sold.
Inflation
      We believe that the direct effects of inflation on our operations have been immaterial. Substantially all of our leases are for a term of one year or less which generally minimizes our risk from the adverse effects of inflation.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
      We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenue or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material.
Factors Affecting Our Business and Prospects
      There are many factors that affect our business and the results of our operations, some of which are beyond our control. These factors include:
  •  unfavorable changes in apartment market and economic conditions that could adversely affect occupancy levels and rental rates,
 
  •  the failure of acquisitions to achieve anticipated results,
 
  •  possible difficulty in selling apartment communities,

27


 

  •  the timing and closing of planned dispositions under agreement,
 
  •  competitive factors that may limit our ability to lease apartment homes or increase or maintain rents,
 
  •  insufficient cash flow that could affect our debt financing and create refinancing risk,
 
  •  failure to generate sufficient revenue, which could impair our debt service payments and distributions to stockholders,
 
  •  development and construction risks that may impact our profitability,
 
  •  potential damage from natural disasters, including hurricanes and other weather-related events, which could result in substantial costs,
 
  •  delays in completing developments and lease-ups on schedule,
 
  •  our failure to succeed in new markets,
 
  •  changing interest rates, which could increase interest costs and affect the market price of our securities,
 
  •  potential liability for environmental contamination, which could result in substantial costs,
 
  •  the imposition of federal taxes if we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, and
 
  •  our internal control over financial reporting may not be considered effective which could result in a loss of investor confidence in our financial reports, and in turn have an adverse effect on our stock price.
      For a discussion of these and other factors affecting our business and prospects, see “Item 1. — Business — Factors Affecting Our Business and Prospects” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Item 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
      United Dominion is exposed to interest rate changes associated with our unsecured credit facility and other variable rate debt as well as refinancing risk on our fixed rate debt. United Dominion’s involvement with derivative financial instruments is limited and we do not expect to use them for trading or other speculative purposes. In prior periods, United Dominion had used derivative instruments solely to manage its exposure to interest rates.
      See our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 “Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for a more complete discussion of our interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities. As of September 30, 2005, our market risk has not changed materially from the amounts reported on our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
      As of September 30, 2005, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed with the objective of ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in our periodic SEC reports. In addition, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that during the quarter ended September 30, 2005, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

28


 

Our internal control over financial reporting is designed with the objective of providing reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting and preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
      It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote. However, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective under circumstances where our disclosure controls and procedures should reasonably be expected to operate effectively.

     UNITED DOMINION REALTY TRUST, INC., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”, which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & Co., as nominee for The Depository Trust Company, or registered assigns, the Principal Amount of ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS ($100,000,000), on the Stated Maturity Date specified above (or any Redemption Date or Repayment Date, each as defined on the reverse hereof, or any earlier date of acceleration of maturity) (each such date being hereinafter referred to as the “Maturity Date” with respect to the principal repayable on such date) and to pay interest thereon (and on any overdue principal, premium and/or interest to the extent legally enforceable) at the Interest Rate per annum specified above, until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment. The Company will pay interest in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, if any, specified above (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing with the first Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, and on the Maturity Date; provided, however, that if the Original Issue Date occurs between a Record Date (as defined below) and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest payment will commence on the Interest Payment Date immediately following the next succeeding Record Date to the registered holder (the “Holder”) of this Note on the next succeeding Record Date. Interest on this Note will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
     Interest on this Note will accrue from, and including, the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from, and including, the Original Issue Date if no interest has been paid or duly provided for) to, but excluding, the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be (each, an “Interest Period”). The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, subject to certain exceptions described herein, be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes, as defined on the reverse hereof) is registered at the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not a Business Day, as defined below) immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (the “Record Date”); provided, however, that interest payable on the Maturity Date will be payable to the person to whom the principal hereof and premium, if any, hereon shall be payable. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date other than the Maturity Date (“Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the close of business on any Record Date and, instead, shall be paid to the person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on a special record date (the “Special Record Date”) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee hereinafter referred to, notice whereof shall be given to the Holder of this Note by the Trustee not less than 10 calendar days prior to such Special Record Date or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner, all as more fully provided for in the Indenture.
     Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note due on the Maturity Date will be made in immediately available funds upon presentation and surrender of this Note (and, with respect to any applicable repayment of this Note, upon delivery of instructions as contemplated on the reverse hereof) at the office or agency maintained by the Company for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, currently the corporate trust office of the Trustee located at 40 Broad Street, 5th Floor, New York, New York 10004, or at such other paying agency in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, as the Company may determine; provided, however, that if the Specified Currency (as defined

2


 

below) is other than United States dollars and such payment is to be made in the Specified Currency in accordance with the provisions set forth below, such payment will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account with a bank designated by the Holder hereof at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, provided that such bank has appropriate facilities therefor and that this Note is presented and surrendered and, if applicable, instructions are delivered at the aforementioned office or agency maintained by the Company in time for the Trustee to make such payment in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date other than the Maturity Date will be made at the aforementioned office or agency maintained by the Company or, at the option of the Company, by check mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register maintained by the Trustee; provided, however, that a Holder of U.S.$10,000,000 (or, if the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, the equivalent thereof in the Specified Currency) or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes (whether having identical or different terms and provisions) will be entitled to receive interest payments on such Interest Payment Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds if such Holder has delivered appropriate wire transfer instructions in writing to the Trustee not less than 15 calendar days prior to such Interest Payment Date. Any such wire transfer instructions received by the Trustee shall remain in effect until revoked by such Holder.
     If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue with respect to such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the date of such payment on the next succeeding Business Day.
     As used herein, “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in The City of New York; provided, however, that if the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, such day must also not be a day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the Principal Financial Center (as defined below) of the country issuing the Specified Currency (or, if the Specified Currency is Euro, such day must also be a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer (TARGET) System is open). “Principal Financial Center” means the capital city of the country issuing the Specified Currency, except that with respect to United States dollars, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, Euros, South African rands and Swiss francs, the “Principal Financial Center” shall be The City of New York, Sydney, Toronto, Johannesburg and Zurich, respectively.
     The Company is obligated to make payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note in the currency in which this Note is denominated above (or, if such currency is not at the time of such payment legal tender for the payment of public and private debts in the country issuing such currency or, if such currency is Euro, in the member states of the European Union that have adopted the single currency in accordance with the Treaty establishing the European Community, as amended by the Treaty on European Union, then the currency which is at the time of such payment legal tender in the related country or in the adopting member states of the European Union, as the case may be) (the “Specified Currency”). If the Specified

3


 

Currency is other than United States dollars, except as otherwise provided below, any such amounts so payable by the Company will be converted by the Exchange Rate Agent specified above into United States dollars for payment to the Holder of this Note.
     Any United States dollar amount to be received by the Holder of this Note will be based on the highest bid quotation in The City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the applicable payment date from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (one of whom may be the Exchange Rate Agent) selected by the Exchange Rate Agent and approved by the Company for the purchase by the quoting dealer of the Specified Currency for United States dollars for settlement on such payment date in the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable to all Holders of Notes scheduled to receive United States dollar payments and at which the applicable dealer commits to execute a contract. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holder of this Note by deductions from such payments. If three such bid quotations are not available, payments on this Note will be made in the Specified Currency.
     If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars, the Holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest, if any, in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency by submitting a written request for such payment to the Trustee at its corporate trust office in The City of New York on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be. Such written request may be mailed or hand delivered or sent by cable, telex or other form of facsimile transmission. The Holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of all future payments in the Specified Currency in respect of such principal, premium, if any, and/or interest, if any, and need not file a separate election for each payment. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice delivered to the Trustee, but written notice of any such revocation must be received by the Trustee on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be.
     If the Specified Currency is other than United States dollars and the Holder of this Note shall have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest, if any, in respect of this Note in the Specified Currency, but the Specified Currency is not available due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Company, the Company will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the Holder of this Note by making such payment in United States dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) determined by the Exchange Rate Agent on the second Business Day prior to such payment date or, if such Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate. The “Market Exchange Rate” for the Specified Currency other than United States dollars means the noon dollar buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers for the Specified Currency as certified for customs purposes (or, if not so certified, as otherwise determined) by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Any payment made in United States dollars under such circumstances shall not constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture).
     All determinations referred to above made by the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Holder of this Note.

4


 

     The Company agrees to indemnify the Holder of any Note against any loss incurred by such Holder as a result of any judgment or order being given or made against the Company for any amount due hereunder and such judgment or order requiring payment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than the Specified Currency, and as a result of any variation between (i) the rate of exchange at which the Specified Currency amount is converted into the Judgment Currency for the purpose of such judgment or order, and (ii) the rate of exchange at which such Holder, on the date of payment of such judgment or order, is able to purchase the Specified Currency with the amount of the Judgment Currency actually received by such Holder, as the case may be. The foregoing indemnity constitutes a separate and independent obligation of the Company and continues in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as aforesaid. The term “rate of exchange” includes any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, the relevant currency.
     Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof and, if so specified on the face hereof, in an Addendum hereto, which further provisions shall have the same force and effect as if set forth on the face hereof.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Addendum is attached hereto or “Other/Additional Provisions” apply to this Note as specified above, this Note shall be subject to the terms set forth in such Addendum or such “Other/Additional Provisions”.
     Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

[REVERSE OF NOTE]
UNITED DOMINION REALTY TRUST, INC.
MEDIUM-TERM NOTE
(Fixed Rate)
     This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Debt Securities (the “Debt Securities”) of the Company issued and to be issued under an Indenture, dated as of November 1, 1995, as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time (the “Indenture”), between the Company (successor by merger to United Dominion Realty Trust, Inc., a Virginia corporation) and Wachovia Bank, National Association, (formerly known as First Union National Bank of Virginia) as trustee (the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Debt Securities, and of the terms upon which the Debt Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series of Debt Securities designated as “Medium-Term Notes Due Nine Months or More From Date of Issue” (the “Notes”). All terms used but not defined in this Note or in an Addendum hereto shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Indenture or on the face hereof, as the case may be.
     This Note is issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of U.S. $1,000 and integral multiples thereof or other Authorized Denomination specified on the face hereof.
     This Note will not be subject to any sinking fund and, unless otherwise specified on the face hereof in accordance with the provisions of the following two paragraphs, will not be redeemable or repayable prior to the Stated Maturity Date.
     This Note will be subject to redemption at the option of the Company on any date on or after the Initial Redemption Date, if any, specified on the face hereof, in whole or from time to time in part in increments of U.S. $1,000 or other integral multiple of an Authorized Denomination (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof shall be at least U.S. $1,000 or such other minimum Authorized Denomination), at the Redemption Price (as defined below), together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption (the “Redemption Date”), on written notice given to the Holder hereof (in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture) not more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days prior to the Redemption Date. The “Redemption Price” shall be an amount equal to the Initial Redemption Percentage specified on the face hereof (as adjusted by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if any, specified on the face hereof) multiplied by the unpaid principal amount of this Note to be redeemed. The Initial Redemption Percentage, if any, shall decline at each anniversary of the Initial Redemption Date by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if any, until the Redemption Price is 100% of unpaid principal amount to be redeemed. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof and otherwise having the same

terms and provisions as this Note shall be issued by the Company in the name of the Holder hereof upon the presentation and surrender hereof.
     This Note will be subject to repayment by the Company at the option of the Holder hereof on the Optional Repayment Date(s), if any, specified on the face hereof, in whole or in part in increments of U.S. $1,000 or other integral multiple of an Authorized Denomination (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof shall be at least U.S. $1,000 or such other minimum Authorized Denomination), at a repayment price equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount to be repaid, together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for repayment (the “Repayment Date”). For this Note to be repaid, the Trustee must receive at its corporate trust office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, not more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days prior to the Repayment Date, such Note and instructions to such effect forwarded by the Holder hereof. Exercise of such repayment option by the Holder hereof shall be irrevocable. In the event of repayment of this Note in part only, a new Note of like tenor for the unrepaid portion hereof and otherwise having the same terms and provisions as this Note shall be issued by the Company in the name of the Holder hereof upon the presentation and surrender hereof.
     If this Note is specified on the face hereof to be a Discount Note, the amount payable to the Holder of this Note in the event of redemption, repayment or acceleration of maturity will be equal to the sum of (1) the Issue Price specified on the face hereof (increased by any accruals of the Discount, as defined below) and, in the event of any redemption of this Note (if applicable), multiplied by the Initial Redemption Percentage (as adjusted by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if applicable) and (2) any unpaid interest accrued thereon to the Redemption Date, Repayment Date or date of acceleration of maturity, as the case may be. The difference between the Issue Price and 100% of the principal amount of this Note is referred to herein as the “Discount”.
     For purposes of determining the amount of Discount that has accrued as of any Redemption Date, Repayment Date or date of acceleration of maturity of this Note, such Discount will be accrued so as to cause the yield on the Note to be constant. The constant yield will be calculated using a 30-day month, 360-day year convention, a compounding period that, except for the Initial Period (as defined below), corresponds to the shortest period between Interest Payment Dates (with ratable accruals within a compounding period) and an assumption that the maturity of this Note will not be accelerated. If the period from the Original Issue Date to the initial Interest Payment Date (the “Initial Period”) is shorter than the compounding period for this Note, a proportionate amount of the yield for an entire compounding period will be accrued. If the Initial Period is longer than the compounding period, then such period will be divided into a regular compounding period and a short period, with the short period being treated as provided in the preceding sentence.
     In addition to the covenants set forth in the Indenture, the Company is required to maintain Total Unencumbered Assets (as defined below) of not less than 150% of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Company’s Unsecured Debt (as defined below). For purposes of this requirement, the following capitalized terms shall be defined as follows:

     “Subsidiaries” means a corporation, a limited liability company or a partnership a majority of the outstanding voting stock, limited liability company or partnership interests, as the case may be, of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company or by one or more other Subsidiaries of the Company. For purposes of this definition, “voting stock” means stock having voting power for the election of directors, managing members or trustees, whether at all times or only so long as no senior class of stock has such voting power by reason of any contingency.
     “Undepreciated Real Estate Assets” as of any date means the original cost plus capital improvements of real estate assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
     “Unsecured Debt” means debt of the Company or any Subsidiary which is not secured by any mortgage, lien, charge, pledge or security interest of any kind upon any of their properties.
     If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may, and in certain cases shall, be accelerated in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
     The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance of (i) the entire indebtedness of the Notes or (ii) certain covenants and Events of Default with respect to the Notes, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to the Notes.
     The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Debt Securities at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of all Debt Securities at the time outstanding and affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Debt Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all such Debt Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture permit the Holders of a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Debt Securities of any series, in certain instances, to waive, on behalf of all of the Holders of Debt Securities of such series, certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and other Notes issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange heretofore or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
     No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note at the times, places and rate or formula, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

     As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security Register of the Company upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal hereof and any premium or interest hereon are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes having the same terms and provisions, of Authorized Denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued by the Company to the designated transferee or transferees.
     As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of different Authorized Denominations but otherwise having the same terms and provisions, as requested by the Holder hereof surrendering the same.
