factors below and information set forth under the heading &#147;Risk Factors&#148; in our most recent Annual Report on <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">Form&nbsp;10-K</FONT> and other periodic reports, which are incorporated by reference into this

<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If you invest in notes indexed, as to principal, premium, if any, and/or interest, if any, to one or more interest rate, currency or other
indices or formulas, you will be subject to significant risks not associated with similar investments in a conventional fixed rate or floating rate debt security. These risks include, without limitation, fluctuation of the particular indices or
formulas and the possibility that you will receive a lower, or no, amount of principal, premium or interest and at different times than you expected. We have no control over a number of factors, including economic, financial and political events,
that are important in determining the existence, magnitude and longevity of these risks and their results. In addition, if an index or formula used to determine any amounts payable in respect of the notes contains a multiplier or leverage factor,
the effect of any change in the particular index or formula will be magnified. In recent years, values of certain indices and formulas have been volatile and volatility in those and other indices and formulas may be expected in the future. However,
past experience is not necessarily indicative of fluctuations that may occur in the future. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><B>Redemption&nbsp;May Adversely Affect Your

</B></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If you invest in notes that are denominated and/or payable in a currency other than U.S.&nbsp;dollars, referred to in this
prospectus supplement as &#147;foreign currency notes,&#148; you will be subject to significant risks not associated with an investment in a debt security denominated and payable in U.S.&nbsp;dollars, including, without limitation, the possibility
of material changes in the exchange rate between U.S.&nbsp;dollars and the applicable foreign currency and the possibility of the imposition or modification of exchange controls by the applicable governments or monetary authorities. We have no
control over the factors that generally affect these risks, including economic, financial and political events and the supply and demand for the applicable currencies. Moreover, if payments on your foreign currency notes are determined by reference
to a formula containing a multiplier or leverage factor, the effect of any change in the exchange rates between the applicable currencies will be magnified. In recent years, exchange rates between U.S.&nbsp;dollars and certain currencies have been

Although we intend to continue to operate to satisfy such requirements, no assurance can be given that the actual results of our operations for any particular taxable year will satisfy such

judicial interpretations thereof. Further, the anticipated income tax treatment described in this prospectus supplement may be changed, perhaps retroactively, by legislative, administrative or judicial action at any time. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The law firm of Morrison&nbsp;&amp; Foerster LLP has acted as our tax counsel in connection with the filing of this prospectus
supplement, and the law firm of Kutak Rock LLP has acted as our special tax counsel regarding our REIT status in connection with this filing. In connection with this filing, Kutak Rock LLP will opine that we have been organized and have operated in
conformity with the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code for each of our taxable years beginning with the taxable year ended December&nbsp;31, 2007 through our taxable year ended December&nbsp;31,
2010, and if we continue to be organized and operated after December&nbsp;31, 2010 in the same manner as we have prior to that date, we will continue to qualify as a REIT. The opinion of Kutak Rock LLP will be based on various assumptions and
representations made by us as to factual matters, including representations made by us in this prospectus supplement and a factual certificate provided by one of our officers. Moreover, our qualification and taxation as a REIT depends upon our
ability to meet the various qualification tests imposed under the Internal Revenue Code and discussed in the accompanying prospectus, relating to our actual operating results, asset diversification, distribution levels, and diversity of stock
ownership, the results of which have not been and will not be reviewed by Kutak Rock LLP. Accordingly, neither Kutak Rock LLP nor we can assure you that the actual results of our operations for any particular taxable year will satisfy these
requirements. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In brief, if certain detailed conditions imposed by the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code are
satisfied, entities, such as us, that invest primarily in real estate and that otherwise would be taxable for U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax purposes as corporations, generally are not taxed at the corporate level on their &#147;REIT taxable
income&#148; that is distributed currently to stockholders. This treatment substantially eliminates the &#147;double taxation&#148; (i.e., taxation at both the corporate and stockholder levels) that generally results from investing in corporations
under current law. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any year, however, we will be subject to U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax
as if we were an ordinary corporation, and our stockholders will be taxed in the same manner as stockholders of ordinary corporations. In that event, we could be subject to potentially significant tax liabilities, the amount of cash available for
distribution to our stockholders could be reduced and we would not be obligated to make any distributions. Moreover, we could be disqualified from taxation as a REIT for four additional taxable years. </FONT></P>

exceeds its &#147;issue price&#148; by an amount equal to or greater than a specified de minimis amount, which is generally 0.25% of the stated redemption price at maturity multiplied by the number of complete years to maturity. The &#147;issue

&#147;qualified stated interest&#148; generally means stated interest that is unconditionally payable in cash or property (other than debt instruments of the issuer), or that is treated as constructively received, at least annually at a single fixed
rate or, under certain circumstances, at a variable rate. If a note bears interest during any accrual period at a rate below the rate applicable for the remaining term of the note (for example, notes with teaser rates or interest holidays), then

Accordingly, a U.S.&nbsp;holder may be required to include OID in income in advance of the receipt of some or all of the related cash payments. The amount of OID includible in income by the initial U.S.&nbsp;holder of an OID note is the sum of the

determined by allocating to each day in any &#147;accrual period&#148; a pro rata portion of the OID allocable to that accrual period. A U.S.&nbsp;holder can use accrual periods of any length from one day to one year to compute accruals of OID,
provided that in determining the OID allocable to an accrual period the yield to maturity is adjusted to reflect the length of that accrual period, and further provided that each scheduled payment of principal or interest occurs either on the first

with the U.S.&nbsp;Treasury to collect and provide to the U.S.&nbsp;Treasury substantial information regarding U.S.&nbsp;account holders, including certain account holders that are foreign entities with U.S.&nbsp;owners, with such institution. The
legislation also generally imposes a withholding tax of 30% on interest income from such obligations and on the gross proceeds from the disposition of such obligations paid to a non-financial foreign entity unless such entity provides the
withholding agent with a certification that it does not have any substantial U.S.&nbsp;owners or a certification identifying the direct and indirect substantial U.S.&nbsp;owners of the entity. Under certain circumstances, a holder may be eligible
for refunds or credits of such taxes. These withholding and reporting requirements will generally apply to payments made after December&nbsp;31, 2012. However, the withholding tax will not be imposed on payments pursuant to obligations outstanding
as of March&nbsp;18, 2012 and the Internal Revenue Service has issued a notice indicating that any withholding obligations will begin no earlier than January&nbsp;1, 2014. Investors are urged to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the

among other things, generally require that our assets consist primarily of real estate assets, our income be derived primarily from real estate assets, and that we distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income (other than our net capital gain)
to our stockholders. As a qualified REIT, we generally will not be subject to U.S.&nbsp;federal income taxes on our REIT taxable income to the extent we distribute such income to our stockholders. </FONT></P>

In this prospectus, we provide only the definitions for some of the more important terms in the Indentures. Wherever we refer to defined terms of the Indentures in this prospectus or in the prospectus supplement, we are incorporating by reference

the highly complex nature of the rules governing REITs, the ongoing importance of factual determinations, and the possibility of future changes in our circumstances, no assurance can be given by Kutak Rock LLP or by us that we will qualify as a REIT

LLP are expressly conditioned on the accuracy of such assumption. The opinion will be expressed as of the date issued. Kutak Rock LLP will have no obligation to advise us or our stockholders of any subsequent change in the matters stated,

ability to qualify as a REIT also requires that we satisfy certain asset tests, some of which depend upon the fair market values of assets that we own directly or indirectly. Such values may not be susceptible to a precise determination.

corporation elect to treat such corporation as a TRS. The separate existence of a TRS or other taxable corporation is not ignored for U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, a TRS or other taxable corporation generally would be subject

described below. Because we do not include the assets and income of TRSs or other taxable subsidiary corporations in determining our compliance with the REIT requirements, we may use such entities to undertake indirectly activities that the REIT
rules might otherwise preclude us from doing directly or through pass-through subsidiaries. For example, we may use TRSs or other taxable subsidiary corporations to conduct activities that give rise to certain categories of income such as management

entity, the income from which may be subject to federal income tax, rather than by participating in the arrangements directly or through pass-through subsidiaries. No assurance can be given, however, that our hedging activities will not give rise to

income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of a partnership, and potentially are subject to tax on these items, without regard to whether the partners receive a distribution from the partnership. We will include in our income our proportionate share
of these partnership items for purposes of the various REIT income tests and in computation of our REIT taxable income. Moreover, for purposes of the REIT asset tests, we will include in our calculations our proportionate share of any assets held by
subsidiary partnerships. Our proportionate share of a partnership&#146;s assets and income is based on our capital interest in the partnership (except that for purposes of the 10% value test, our proportionate share is based on our proportionate
interest in the equity and certain debt securities issued by the partnership). See &#147;Taxation of UDR&#151;Effect of Subsidiary Entities&#151;Ownership of Partnership Interests.&#148; </FONT></P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Any investment in partnerships involves special tax considerations, including the possibility of a challenge by the IRS of the status of any subsidiary partnership as a partnership, as opposed to an
association taxable as a corporation, for U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax purposes. If any of these entities were treated as an association for U.S.&nbsp;federal income tax purposes, it would be taxable as a corporation and therefore could be subject
to an entity-level tax on its income. In such a situation, the character of our assets and items of gross income would change and could preclude us from satisfying the REIT asset tests or the income tests as discussed in &#147;Taxation of
UDR&#151;Asset Tests&#148; and &#147;&#151;Income Tests,&#148; and in turn could prevent us from qualifying as a REIT, unless we are eligible for relief from the violation pursuant to the relief provisions described above. See &#147;Taxation of
UDR&#151;Asset Tests,&#148; &#147;&#151;Income Test&#148; and &#147;&#151;Failure to Qualify,&#148; above, for discussion of the effect of failure to satisfy the REIT tests for a taxable year, and of the relief provisions. In addition, any change in
the status of any subsidiary partnership for tax purposes might be treated as a taxable event, in which case we could have taxable income that is subject to the REIT distribution requirements without receiving any cash. </FONT></P>

STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Under the Internal Revenue Code and the Treasury regulations, income, gain, loss and deduction attributable to appreciated or depreciated property that is contributed to a partnership in exchange for an
interest in the partnership must be allocated for tax purposes so that the contributing partner is charged with, or benefits from, the unrealized gain or unrealized loss associated with the property at the time of the contribution. The amount of the
unrealized gain or unrealized loss is generally equal to the difference between the fair market value of the contributed property at the time of contribution, and the adjusted tax basis of such property at the time of contribution (a <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;book-tax</FONT> difference&#148;). Such allocations are solely for federal income tax purposes and do not affect the book capital accounts or other economic or legal arrangements among the partners. </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">To the extent that any of our subsidiary partnerships acquires appreciated (or depreciated) properties by way of capital contributions
from its partners, allocations would need to be made in a manner consistent with these requirements. Where a partner contributes cash to a partnership at a time that the partnership holds appreciated (or depreciated) property, the Treasury
regulations provide for a similar allocation of these items to the other (i.e., <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-contributing)</FONT> partners. These rules may apply to a contribution that we make to any subsidiary partnerships of the cash
proceeds received in offerings of our stock. As a result, the partners of our subsidiary partnerships, including us, could be allocated greater or lesser amounts of depreciation and taxable income in respect of a partnership&#146;s properties than
would be the case if all of the partnership&#146;s assets (including any contributed assets) had a tax basis equal to their fair market values at the time of any contributions to that partnership. This could cause us to recognize, over a period of
time, taxable income in excess of cash flow from the partnership, which might adversely affect our ability to comply with the REIT distribution requirements discussed above. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT

legislative, judicial or administrative action at any time and that any such action may affect investments and commitments previously made. The rules dealing with federal income taxation are constantly under review by persons involved in the
legislative process, the IRS and the Treasury, resulting in revisions of regulations and revised interpretations of established concepts as well as statutory changes. Revisions in federal tax laws and interpretations of these laws could adversely
affect the tax consequences of your investment. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In addition, legislation was enacted on March&nbsp;18, 2010 that will impose
a 30% U.S.&nbsp;withholding tax on U.S.&nbsp;source dividends and on the gross proceeds from a disposition of property that produces such income, paid to a foreign financial institution, unless such institution enters into an agreement with the
U.S.&nbsp;Treasury Department to collect and provide to the Treasury Department certain information regarding U.S.&nbsp;account holders, including certain account holders that are foreign entities with U.S.&nbsp;owners, with such institution. The
legislation also generally imposes a withholding tax of 30% on such amounts when paid to a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-financial</FONT> foreign entity unless such entity provides the withholding agent with a certification that it does not
have any substantial U.S.&nbsp;owners or a certification identifying the direct and indirect substantial U.S.&nbsp;owners of the entity. Under certain circumstances, a taxpayer may be eligible for refunds or credits of such taxes. These withholding
and reporting requirements generally will apply to payments made after December&nbsp;31, 2012. However, the withholding tax will not be imposed on payments pursuant to debt obligations outstanding as of March&nbsp;18, 2012 and the IRS has issued a
notice indicating that any withholding obligations will begin no earlier than January 2014. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Recently enacted legislation has

asset (or any other property) in the hands of the C corporation will cause gain to be taxed at the highest regular corporate rate to the extent of any <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">built-in,</FONT> unrealized capital gain at the time of the

<P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">There is currently no market for any of the offered securities, other than the common stock and the 6.75% Series&nbsp;G Cumulative
Redeemable Preferred Stock which are both listed on the NYSE. If the offered securities are traded after their initial issuance, they may trade at a discount from their initial offering price, depending upon prevailing interest rates, the market for
similar securities and other factors. While it is possible that an underwriter could inform us that it intends to make a market in the offered securities, such underwriter would not be obligated to do so, and any such market-making could be
discontinued at any time without notice. Therefore, no assurance can be given as to whether an active trading market will develop for the offered securities. We have no current plans for listing of the debt securities, preferred stock or warrants on
any securities exchange or on the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. automated quotation system; any such listing with respect to any particular debt securities, preferred stock or warrants will be described in the applicable
prospectus supplement or pricing supplement, as the case may be. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In connection with any offering of common stock, the
underwriters may purchase and sell shares of common stock in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, syndicate covering transactions and stabilizing transactions. Short sales involve syndicate sales of common stock in excess of
the number of shares to be purchased by the underwriters in the offering, which creates a syndicate short position. &#147;Covered&#148; short sales are sales of shares made in an amount up to the number of shares represented by the
underwriters&#146; over-allotment option. In determining the source of shares to close out the covered syndicate short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as
compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through the over-allotment option. Transactions to close out the covered syndicate short involve either purchases of the common stock in the open market after the distribution has been
completed or the exercise of the over-allotment option. The underwriters may also make &#147;naked&#148; short sales of shares in excess of the over-allotment option. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares of
common stock in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of the shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect
investors who purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of bids for or purchases of shares in the open market while the offering is in progress for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining the price of the securities.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">In connection with any offering, the underwriters may also engage in penalty bids. Penalty bids permit the underwriters to
reclaim a selling concession from a syndicate member when the securities originally sold by the syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions. Stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering
transactions and penalty bids may cause the price of the securities to be higher than it would be in the absence of the transactions. The underwriters may, if they commence these transactions, discontinue them at any time. </FONT></P>
