property type and conservative capital management. Our principal objective is to invest in high quality properties in prime locations, then proactively manage, lease and develop ongoing capital improvement programs to improve their long-term
economic performance. On December 31, 2006, we owned 82 properties, consisting of 24 general purpose office properties, 13 medical office properties, 14 retail centers, 9 multifamily properties and 22 industrial/flex properties encompassing in the
aggregate approximately 11.8&nbsp;million net rentable square feet, and land for development. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">While we have historically focused most of

</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Notes are being issued as a separate series of debt securities under our senior indenture, dated as of August&nbsp;1, 1996, between

2007. A copy of the form of indenture has been filed as an exhibit to the registration statement of which the accompanying prospectus is a part. Certain terms of the Notes are set forth in such officers&#146; certificate, which will be filed as an
exhibit to Form 8-K after the issuance of the Notes. The term &#147;indenture&#148; as used in this &#147;Description of Notes,&#148; includes the provisions of such officers&#146; certificate as appropriate. </FONT></P> <P

to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the provisions of the Notes and the indenture (including the officers&#146; certificate). Because the following is only a summary, it does not contain all information that you may find useful.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Definitions of certain terms are set forth throughout this description. Terms defined in the indenture that are used but not otherwise

their over-allotment option in full). We may, without the consent of holders of the Notes, increase the principal amount of the Notes by issuing additional notes in the future on the same terms and conditions, except for any difference in the issue
price and interest accrued prior to the issue date of the additional notes, and with the same CUSIP number as the Notes offered hereby so long as such additional notes are fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with the Notes offered hereby.
The Notes offered hereby and any additional notes would rank equally and ratably in right of payment and would be treated as a single series of debt securities for all purposes under the indenture. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The Notes will be our general unsecured obligations, ranking equally in right of payment to all of our existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness,
including the 3.875% convertible senior notes due 2026 issued in September 2006, and senior in right of payment to all of our future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the Notes. The Notes are also effectively subordinated to the
liabilities of our secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing those obligations. As of January 2, 2007, we had approximately $229.3 million of secured indebtedness outstanding. </FONT></P> <P

recent date interest has been paid or provided for. We will pay interest on the Notes semiannually in arrears on March&nbsp;15 and September&nbsp;15 of each year, commencing on March&nbsp;15, 2007, to holders of record at the close of business on
the March&nbsp;1 or the September&nbsp;1 immediately preceding such interest payment date); provided, however, that interest payable upon redemption or repurchase by us will be paid to the person to whom principal is payable, unless the redemption
date or repurchase date, as the case may be, is an interest payment date. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

delivery of the fundamental change purchase notice. Payment of the fundamental change purchase price for the note will be made promptly following the later of the fundamental change purchase date and the time of the book-entry transfer or delivery

U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Notes. This summary does not provide a complete analysis of all potential tax considerations. The information provided below is based on existing U.S.
federal income tax authorities, all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect. There can be no assurances that the Internal Revenue Service (the &#147;IRS&#148;) will not challenge one or more of
the tax consequences described herein, and we have not obtained, nor do we intend to obtain, a ruling from the IRS with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of purchasing, owning or disposing of the Notes. The summary generally
applies only to investors that purchase Notes in the initial offering at their issue price, which is the first price at which a substantial amount of the Notes are sold for money to the public (not including sales to bond houses, brokers or similar
persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters, placement agents or wholesalers), and that hold the Notes as &#147;capital assets&#148; (generally, for investment). This discussion does not purport to deal with all aspects of U.S.
federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular holder in light of the holder&#146;s circumstances (for example, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(&#147;Code&#148;), or a U.S. Holder (as defined below) whose &#147;functional currency&#148; is not the U.S. dollar). Also, it is not intended to be wholly applicable to all categories of investors, some of which may be subject to special rules
(such as dealers in securities or currencies, traders in securities that elect to use a mark-to-market method of accounting, banks, thrifts, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, insurance companies, tax-exempt entities,
tax-deferred or other retirement accounts, investors in pass-through entities and persons holding the Notes as part of a hedging, integrated or conversion transaction or a straddle, or persons deemed to sell the Notes under the constructive sale
provisions of the Code). Finally, the summary does not describe the effect of the U.S. federal estate and gift tax laws or the effects of any applicable foreign, state or local laws. </FONT></P> <P

for U.S. federal income tax purposes is (1)&nbsp;an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States, (2)&nbsp;a corporation, or an entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, created or organized in or under
the laws of the United States or any state of the United States, or the District of Columbia, (3)&nbsp;an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source or (4)&nbsp;a trust if it is (A)&nbsp;subject to
the primary supervision of a U.S. court and the control of one of more U.S. persons or (B)&nbsp;has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person. The term &#147;U.S. Holder&#148; also includes
certain former citizens and residents of the United States. A &#147;Non-U.S. Holder&#148; is a beneficial owner of Notes (other than a partnership) that is not a U.S. Holder. If a partnership (including for this purpose any entity, domestic or
foreign, treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is a beneficial owner of Notes, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. A holder of
Notes that is a partnership, and partners in such partnership, should consult their own tax advisors about the U.S. federal income tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of the Notes. </FONT></P> <P

FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">U.S. Holders will be required to recognize as ordinary income stated interest paid or accrued on the Notes, in accordance with their regular method of tax accounting. In general, if the terms of a debt instrument
entitle a holder to receive payments, other than fixed periodic interest, that exceed the issue price of the instrument by an amount equal to or greater than a statutory <I>de minimis</I> amount (one-fourth of one percent of the stated redemption
price at maturity times the number of complete years from issuance to maturity), the holder will be required to recognize as additional interest such &#147;original issue discount&#148; (&#147;OID&#148;) in advance of receipt as it accrues under a
constant yield method. The Notes will not have any OID because they are issued for an amount in excess of their principal amount. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2"><I>Amortizable Bond
Premium </I></FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:6px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">If a U.S Holder purchases a debt instrument for an amount that is greater than the sum of all amounts payable on the debt
instrument after the purchase date, other than payments of qualified stated interest, such U.S. Holder will be considered to have purchased the debt instrument with &#147;amortizable bond premium.&#148; In general, amortizable bond premium with
respect to any convertible debt instrument (such as a Note) will be equal to the excess, if any, of the tax basis (reduced as set forth in the following sentence) over the sum of all amounts payable on the debt instrument other than qualified stated
interest. For this purpose only, a U.S. Holder&#146;s tax basis in a convertible debt instrument is reduced by an amount equal to the value of such U.S. Holder&#146;s option to convert the convertible debt instrument for other property (such as cash
and our common shares); the value of this conversion option may be determined under any reasonable method. However, in the case of a debt instrument that may be redeemed prior to maturity at the option of the issuer (such as a Note), the amount of
amortizable bond premium is determined by substituting the first date on which the debt instrument may be redeemed (the &#147;redemption date&#148;) for the maturity date and the applicable redemption price on the redemption date for the amount
payable at maturity, if the result would maximize the U.S. Holder&#146;s yield to maturity. If the issuer does not in fact exercise its right to redeem the debt instrument on the applicable redemption date, the debt instrument will be treated
(solely for purposes of the amortizable bond premium rules) as having matured and then as having been reissued for the U.S. Holder&#146;s &#147;adjusted acquisition price,&#148; which is an amount equal to the U.S. Holder&#146;s basis in the debt
instrument (as determined under the applicable Treasury Regulations), less the sum of (1) any amortizable bond premium allocable to prior accrual periods and (2) any payments previously made on the debt instrument (other than payments of qualified
stated interest). The debt instrument deemed to have been reissued will again be subject to the amortizable bond premium rules with respect to the remaining dates on which the debt instrument is redeemable. </FONT></P> <P
STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">A U.S. Holder may elect to amortize bond premium on a debt instrument. Once made, the election applies to all taxable debt instruments then owned and
thereafter acquired by the U.S. Holder on or after the first day of the taxable year to which such election applies, and may be revoked only with the consent of the IRS. The election, therefore, should only be made in consultation with a tax
advisor. In general, a U.S. Holder amortizes bond premium by offsetting the qualified stated interest allocable to an accrual period with the bond premium allocable to the accrual period, which is determined under a constant yield method pursuant to
the applicable Treasury Regulations. If the bond premium allocable to an accrual period exceeds the qualified stated interest allocable to such period, the excess is treated by the U.S. Holder as a bond premium deduction. The bond premium deduction
for each accrual period is limited to the amount by which the U.S. Holder&#146;s total interest inclusions on the debt instrument in prior accrual periods exceed the total amount treated by such U.S. Holder as a bond premium deduction on the debt
instrument in prior accrual periods. Any amounts not deductible in an accrual period may be carried forward to the next accrual period and treated as bond premium allocable to that period. </FONT></P> <P

<FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">U.S. federal income tax purposes. Adjustments to the conversion rate made pursuant to a bona fide reasonable adjustment formula which has the effect of
preventing the dilution of the interest of the holders of the Notes will generally not be deemed to result in a constructive distribution with respect to our common shares. Certain of the possible adjustments provided in the Notes (including,
without limitation, adjustments in respect of taxable dividends to our shareholders) do not qualify as being made pursuant to a bona fide reasonable adjustment formula. If such adjustments are made, we intend to take the position that you will be
deemed to have received constructive distributions from us, even though you have not received any cash or property as a result of such adjustments. A U.S. Holder could have taxable income in this event even though the U.S. Holder receives no cash or
property. Generally, a U.S. Holder&#146;s basis in the Notes will be increased to the extent any constructive distribution is treated as a dividend. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Although the matter is not entirely clear, we believe any such constructive distributions generally will be taxable to taxable U.S. Holders as ordinary income and capital gains to the extent of the U.S. Holders&#146;
pro rata shares (taking into account both the constructive distributions to them and the dividend distributions made or deemed made to our shareholders) of such components of our current or accumulated earnings and profits. If our distributions
(including to shareholders) exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, the U.S. Holder&#146;s share of such excess will be deemed to be a return of capital to such U.S. Holder to the extent of the adjusted tax basis of such U.S.

2011. This reduced maximum tax rate generally does not apply to ordinary REIT dividends, which are subject to tax at the higher tax rates applicable to ordinary income (a maximum rate of 35 percent). The 15 percent maximum tax rate, however, does
apply to distributions that are properly designated as capital gains distributions (except to the extent attributable to real estate depreciation, in which case such distributions continue to be subject to a 25 percent tax rate) and REIT dividends
attributable to earnings of or dividends received by the REIT that already had been subject to U.S. corporate income tax. U.S. Holders that are corporations may, however, be required to treat up to 20 percent of certain capital gains dividends as
ordinary income. Distributions we make (including constructive distributions), whether characterized as ordinary income or as capital gains, are not eligible for the dividends received deduction for corporations. </FONT></P> <P

SIZE="2">A U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss if the holder disposes of the Notes in a sale, exchange, redemption or other disposition (other than conversion of the Notes into cash and our common shares, the U.S. federal
income tax consequences of which are described under &#147;&#151;U.S. Holders&#151;Conversion of Notes&#148; below). The U.S. Holder&#146;s gain or loss will equal the difference between the proceeds received by the holder (other than amounts
attributable to accrued by unpaid interest which will be taxable as such) and the holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in the Notes. The U. S. Holder&#146;s tax basis in the Notes will generally equal the amount the holder paid for the Notes, adjusted
by subtracting any payments (other than of qualified stated interest) received on the Notes and any amortizable bond premium taken by the U.S. Holder with respect to the Notes. The gain or loss recognized by the U.S. Holder on the disposition of the
Notes will be long-term capital gain or loss if the holder held the Notes for more than one year, or short-term capital gain or loss if the holder held the Notes for one year or less. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate taxpayers currently are
taxed at a maximum 15 percent federal rate (effective for tax years beginning before January&nbsp;1, 2011). Short-term capital gains are taxed at ordinary income rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. </FONT></P> <P

</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The tax consequences of the conversion of the Notes into cash and our common shares are not entirely clear. A U.S. Holder may be treated
as exchanging the Notes for our common shares and cash in a recapitalization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In such case, the U.S. Holder generally would not be permitted to recognize loss, but generally would be required to recognize capital
gain in an amount equal to the lesser of the gain realized and the cash received (other than cash in lieu of a fractional common share and any cash attributable to accrued but unpaid interest). The gain recognized by a U.S. Holder upon conversion of
the Notes will be long-term capital gain if the holder held the Notes for more than one year, or short-term capital gain if the holder held the Notes for one year or less. Long-term capital gains of non-corporate taxpayers currently are taxed at a
maximum 15 percent federal rate (effective for tax years beginning before January&nbsp;1, 2011). Short-term capital gains are taxed at ordinary income rates. The U.S. Holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in the common shares received (including any
fractional share for which cash is paid, but excluding shares attributable to accrued but unpaid interest) generally would equal the adjusted tax basis of the converted Notes, decreased by the amount of cash received (other than cash in lieu of a
fractional common share and any cash attributable to accrued but unpaid interest), and increased by the amount of gain recognized. The U.S. Holder&#146;s holding period in the common shares (other than shares attributable to accrued but unpaid
interest) would include the holding period in the converted Notes. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Alternatively, the conversion of the Notes into cash and our common
shares may be treated as in part a payment in redemption of a portion of the Notes and in part a conversion of a portion of the Notes into common shares. In such case, a U.S. Holder&#146;s aggregate tax basis in the Notes would be allocated between
the portion of the Notes treated as sold and the portion of the Notes treated as converted into common shares on a pro rata basis. The U.S. Holder generally would recognize capital gain or loss with respect to the portion of the Notes treated as
sold equal to the difference between the amount of cash received by the U.S. Holder (other than amounts attributable to accrued but unpaid interest) and the U.S. Holder&#146;s adjusted tax basis in the portion of the Notes treated as sold.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">With respect to the portion of the Notes treated as converted, a U.S. Holder generally would not recognize any gain or loss (except with
respect to cash received in lieu of a fractional common share). The tax basis allocated to the portion of the Notes treated as converted into common shares would be the U.S. Holder&#146;s tax basis in the common shares (including any fractional
share for which cash is paid, but excluding shares attributable to accrued interest). The U.S. Holder&#146;s holding period in the common shares (other than shares attributable to accrued interest) would include the holding period in the converted
Notes. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Finally, it is possible that the IRS might assert that the theory described in the second preceding paragraph, that the conversion
was a partial redemption and a partial conversion pursuant to an embedded option, did not apply. Also, because the Notes are redeemable by us and &#147;putable&#148; by a U.S. Holder within five years of issuance, the IRS might also assert that the
conversion did not constitute a recapitalization because the Notes did not constitute securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the IRS were to prevail in these positions, the conversion of the Notes would be fully taxable, including any
portion of the Notes that were exchanged solely for our common shares. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">With respect to cash received in lieu of a fractional share of our
common shares, a U.S. Holder would be treated as if the fractional share were received and then immediately redeemed for cash. The U.S. Holder generally would recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between the cash received and that portion
of the holder&#146;s basis in the common shares attributable to the fractional share. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT SIZE="1">&nbsp;</FONT></P>

over-allotment option. If the underwriters sell more Notes than could be covered by the over-allotment option, a naked short position, that position can only be closed out by buying Notes 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 Notes in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. </FONT></TD></TR></TABLE>

rescission against us the event that this prospectus contains a misrepresentation without regard to whether the purchaser relied on the misrepresentation. The right of action for damages is exercisable not later than the earlier of 180 days from the
date the purchaser first had knowledge of the facts giving rise to the cause of action and three years from the date on which payment is made for the Notes. The right of action for rescission is exercisable not later than 180 days from the date on
which payment is made for the Notes. If a purchaser elects to exercise the right of action for rescission, the purchaser will have no right of action for damages against us. In no case will the amount recoverable in any action exceed the price at
which the Notes were offered to the purchaser and if the purchaser is shown to have purchased the securities with knowledge of the misrepresentation, we will have no liability. In the case of an action for damages, we will not be liable for all or
any portion of the damages that are proven to not represent the depreciation in value of the Notes as a result of the misrepresentation relied upon. These rights are in addition to, and without derogation from, any other rights or remedies available
at law to an Ontario purchaser. The foregoing is a summary of the rights available to an Ontario purchaser. Ontario purchasers should refer to the complete text of the relevant statutory provisions. </FONT></P> <P

2000, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (&#147;NAREIT&#148;) defines funds from operations as income available for common shareholders before depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and before extraordinary items,

for, any cumulated dividends and distributions on and any required redemptions of any preferred shares then outstanding. Holders of common shares have one vote per share. Voting rights are not cumulative. This means that in the election of trustees
at a shareholders&#146; meeting, the holders of a majority of the outstanding common shares can cast all of their votes for each trustee to be elected and elect all of the trustees then standing for election, and the votes held by the holders of the
remaining common shares will not be sufficient to elect any trustee. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The declaration of trust establishes the number of trustees at not

of trustees could establish a series of preferred stock having the right to elect up to two additional trustees, but less than a majority of the trustees, under specified circumstances and for specified periods, which we describe below. </FONT></P>

provides that if any transfer of shares would prevent amounts received by WRIT from a sister corporation, if one existed, from qualifying as rents from real property as defined in Section&nbsp;856(d) of the Internal Revenue Code, by virtue of the
application of Section&nbsp;856(d)(2)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, the transfer will be void from inception and the intended transferee of the shares will be treated as never having had an interest in those shares. If this provision is invalid
by virtue of any legal decision, statute, rule or regulation, then the transferee of the shares will be treated as having acted as an agent on behalf of WRIT in acquiring those shares and as holding those shares on WRIT&#146;s behalf. Furthermore,
the declaration of trust provides that shareholders will be required upon demand to disclose to the trustees in writing information with respect to their direct and indirect ownership of the shares that the trustees deem necessary to determine
whether WRIT satisfies the provisions of Sections 856(a)(5) and (6)&nbsp;and Section&nbsp;856(d) of the Internal Revenue Code or the regulations under such sections or to comply with the requirements of any other taxing authority. </FONT></P> <P

automated inter-dealer quotation system and (2)&nbsp;the occurrence of the settlement of any transaction will not negate the effect of the share ownership limitation provisions or any other provision of the declaration of trust. </FONT></P> <P
