The strength of our market, combined with a sound investment strategy, enables us to deliver consistent returns to our shareholders and gives us extraordinary resilience. Balance, consistency and focus are the major components of our business approach, resulting in WRIT’s solid record of performance. We couldn’t be in better condition.

The acquisitions include 533,000 square feet of office space, 404,000 square feet of industrial/flex space, 336,000 square feet of medical office space and 225,000 square feet of retail space. In the industrial sector, WRIT acquired Hampton Overlook and Hampton South, a portfolio of five warehouses totaling 302,000 square feet, for $23.1 million. The portfolio was 74% leased at acquisition and 100% leased at year-end. Located in Capitol Heights, Maryland, the Hampton portfolio is part of Hampton Business Park, one of Prince George’s County’s larger industrial parks. Also in Prince George’s County, WRIT acquired 9950 Business Parkway, a 102,000 square foot industrial warehouse, for $11.7 million. WRIT added to its retail portfolio in 2006 with the acquisition of the Montrose and Randolph Shopping Centers—two neighborhood mixed-use retail centers totaling 225,000 square feet—in Rockville, Maryland, for $50.3 million. In the office sector, WRIT acquired 6565 Arlington Boulevard, a 140,000 square foot, five-story office building in Falls Church, Virginia, for $30.0 million. Later in the year, WRIT acquired West Gude Office Park and The Ridges, consisting of a total of 393,000 square feet of well-located office space in Montgomery County, Maryland, for $82.0 million. Upon acquisition, West Gude was 94% leased and The Ridges was 100% leased. WRIT also expanded its medical office portfolio with the acquisition of the Alexandria Professional Center, The Crescent and the Shady Grove/Plumtree portfolio. Acquired for $26.9 million, the Alexandria Professional Center, in Northern Virginia, is a 12-story medical office center containing 113,000 square feet. The Crescent, located in Gaithersburg, Maryland, was acquired for $12.0 million and comprises two medical office buildings totaling 49,000 square feet. Located in Maryland and acquired for $67.0 million, WRIT’s Shady Grove/ Plumtree medical portfolio consists of four Class A medical office buildings containing 174,000 square feet. Throughout the year, WRIT expanded its medical office portfolio from seven to 13 properties, and increased its net operating income contribution from 10.2% to 11.5%. 3 Prosperity Medical Center Merrifield, VA Consistency Our disciplined investment strategy is an integral component of our success and has resulted in 36 consecutive years of increased dividends per share and 34 consecutive years of increased funds from operations per share. In the more than 45 years since its founding, WRIT has endured six economic recessions and four real estate downturns, and has consis- tently increased funds from operations, thereby increasing shareholder value. For 2006, funds from operations were $92.8 million, or $2.12 per diluted share, an increase of $5.4 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, from 2005. WRIT’s consistently strong performance, year after year, can be attributed to a sound acquisition strategy and a disciplined capital structure. WRIT identifies opportunities to increase shareholder value through renovations and expansions, as well as advantageous ground-up development opportunities. During the fourth quarter of 2006, we completed the redevelopment of The Shoppes at Foxchase in Alexandria, Virginia, a 133,000 square foot retail shopping center anchored by the 55,000 square foot grocery store, Harris Teeter. At year-end 2006, three development projects were in progress: Bennett Park, The Clayborne Apartments and Dulles Station. Formerly Rosslyn Towers, Bennett Park is a ground-up development project in Arlington, Virginia. Construction of the high-rise and mid-rise Class A apartment buildings, with a total of 224 units and 5,900 square feet of retail space, is anticipated to be complete in 2007, and the total cost of the project is estimated to be $76.6 million. The Clayborne Apartments is a ground-up development project in Alexandria, Virginia, adjacent to WRIT’s 800 South Washington retail property. Construction of the 75-unit Class A apartment building, which will include 2,600 square feet of additional retail space, is anticipated to be complete in the third quarter of 2007, and the total cost of the project is estimated to be $32.7 million. Dulles Station is a 180,000 square foot develop- ment of mostly office and some retail space in Herndon, Virginia, that is anticipated to be complete during the third quarter of 2007 and has an estimated cost of $52.0 million. WRIT’s conservative capital structure strategically impacts our perfor- mance. During 2006, WRIT raised over $350 million of capital, issuing $110 million in 3.875% Convertible Senior Notes, $150 million in 5.95% Senior Unsecured Notes and 2.7 million common shares. The results that WRIT delivers are a product of a steadfast adherence to a proven investment and capital management strategy, one that has enabled our growth for decades and which we expect will continue to enhance shareholder value in the future. 5 Total Return WRIT vs S&P 500 WRIT Total Return $10,000 invested in WRIT since December 31, 1971, with dividends reinvested, would be worth $3,425,880 as of December 31, 2006. S&P Total Return 1971 2006 Bennett Park Arlington, VA Focus Focusing on the vibrant greater Washington, D.C. metro region, we’ve developed a thorough knowledge of our market and a keen sense for its investment climate, which give us a distinct competitive advantage to facilitate our growth. Dulles South IV Chantilly, VA With a concentration on properties within two hours of the Washington metropolitan area, we know our market well. Our expertise in this region—the fourth-largest metro (CSA) economy in the United States— allows us to make strategically sound acquisitions in one of the most stable investment environments in the country. The Nation’s Capital boasts an exceptionally strong economy and presents an abundance of opportunities for real estate investment. As the seat of the federal government, as well as major international institutions, embassies, trade associations and other supporting industries, a significant portion of the economy is insulated from economic downturns. The area also serves as a hub for several major industries, such as bioscience, defense contracting, telecommunications, law and consulting. Over the last 20 years, the Washington region has led all metro areas in the country in employment growth. It also has the lowest unemployment rate of any major region, a highly educated workforce—46% of residents hold college degrees or higher—and the highest median income of any large U.S. metro region. The Washington, D.C. region has the necessary human capital to thrive, in both the short term and the long term. As a result, demand for real estate in this area remains high for each of the property types in which we invest. WRIT’s regional focus and accumulated expertise are sources of strength and will continue to be leveraged as we strive to maintain our record of success. 15 70 Our Portfolio Office Buildings Medical Office Multi-family Retail Centers Industrial/Flex M O N T G O M E R Y C O U N T Y 2700 95 L O U D O U N C O U N T Y 495 66 F A I R F A X C O U N T Y 66 50 495 9595 2922922222 50 5050 552952 495 1901 Pennsylvania Avenue Washington, D.C.

I’m pleased to report that WRIT has again increased funds from operations per share for the 34th consecutive year and dividends per share for the 36th consecutive year. During 2006, WRIT acquired 14 new properties: six medical office properties containing approximately 336,000 square feet, which were 98.2% leased; three general purpose office properties containing approximately 533,000 square feet, which were 92.7% leased; three industrial/flex properties containing approximately 404,000 square feet, which were 94.7% leased; and two retail centers in Rockville, Maryland, containing a total of approximately 225,000 square feet, which were 76.5% leased. These acquisitions, along with our developments at Dulles Station, Bennett Park, and The Clayborne in Northern Virginia, have been financed through a combination of the issuance of additional equity, unsecured debt and convertible senior notes. Each of these transactions complement WRIT’s ongoing business plan of geographic focus, property diversification and conserva- tive financial management. Our acquisition strategy is to invest in stabilized assets, where management believes it can improve the bottom line over the short term, assets with value-added opportunities such as the recently purchased industrial and retail properties, acquisitions of general purpose office buildings with below market in-place rents and prices below replacement cost, and strategically located medical office buildings. As we move into 2007, the competition for each of these property types upon which we focus for investment are still very much in demand by others. Interest rates remain low and there is no shortage of capital for real estate assets. This combination applies continued downward pressure on capitalization rates, leading to higher property values. Compounding these conditions, land values and construction costs are steadily increasing. These factors create extraordinary challenges for us in executing our 2007 external growth plans. On the other hand, these conditions also contribute to the increased value of our existing portfolio, allowing WRIT flexibility to continue to acquire properties in a very competi- tive marketplace. During 2006, our core portfolio was in terrific shape, with occupancy at 93.9% compared to 92.2% last year. As we move into 2007, we expect our core portfolio occupancy levels will increase with improved performance in our general purpose 8 office sector and the better than expected performance we are now realizing from the above mentioned value-added acquisitions. This year, we will complete our three ground-up projects, which are currently under construction. We expect to begin delivering apartment units at Bennett Park in Arlington, Virginia, during the second quarter of 2007, and The Clayborne in Alexandria, Virginia, during the third quarter. The base building shell and garage for Dulles Station, our office development in Herndon, Virginia, will be ready for fit up in the third quarter. Though no leases are signed at this time, prospective tenant activity is increasing. 2006 was a very good year for WRIT’s share performance as well as the REIT industry as a whole. For the sixth straight year, our industry has outperformed most of the major indices. Our company achieved a total return of 37.8% for the year. Though one can never truly predict future total returns, I feel very positive about our earnings potential for the year 2007. We expect positive rental rate growth and improved occupancy, our acquisition pipeline is full, and capital is readily available for additional investment. Along with their other corporate governance responsibilities, it is incumbent on our Board of Trustees to be focused on senior management transition and the continued development of talent throughout the organization. In recognition of his experience and commitment to WRIT, in June of 2006, George “Skip” McKenzie was promoted to President and Chief Operating Officer. Previously Skip was Executive Vice President, Real Estate, responsible for all real estate operations. In addition to Skip, other management changes and promotions were made to further enhance and strengthen the company’s management. Continued strong performance will be achieved by sound decisions on the part of management in collaboration with all the members of the company and the welcome advice and oversight of our Trustees.

BUSINeSS The Trust Washington Real Estate Investment Trust (“WRIT,” the “Trust,” or the “company”) is a self-administered, self- managed, equity real estate investment trust (“REIT”) successor to a trust organized in 1960. Our business consists of the ownership and development of income-producing real properties in the greater Washington metro region. We own a diversified portfolio of general purpose office buildings, medical office buildings, industrial/flex properties, multifamily buildings and retail centers. We believe that we qualify as a REIT under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code and intend to continue to qualify as such. To maintain our status as a REIT, we are required to distribute 90% of our ordinary taxable income to our shareholders. When selling properties, we have the option of (i) reinvesting the sale price of properties sold, allowing for a deferral of income taxes on the sale, (ii) paying out capital gains to the shareholders with no tax to the company or (iii) treating the capital gains as having been distributed to the shareholders, paying the tax on the gain deemed distributed and allocating the tax paid as a credit to the shareholders. We did not dispose of any of our properties in 2006, and we distributed all of our 2006, 2005, and 2004 ordinary taxable income to our shareholders. In 2005, $33.5 million of the gains from the property disposal were reinvested in replacement properties and approximately $3.5 million of the gains were distributed to shareholders. Gains from the property disposed in 2004 were distributed to shareholders. No provision for income taxes was necessary in 2006, 2005, or 2004. Over the last five years, dividends paid per share have been $1.64 for 2006, $1.60 for 2005, $1.55 for 2004, $1.47 for 2003, and $1.39 for 2002. We generally incur short-term floating rate debt in connection with the acquisition and development of real estate. As market conditions permit, we replace the floating rate debt with fixed-rate secured loans or unsecured senior notes, or repay the debt with the proceeds of sales of equity securities. We may acquire one or more properties in exchange for our equity securities or operating partnership units which are convertible into WRIT shares. Our geographic focus is based on two principles: 1. Real estate is a local business and is more effectively selected and managed by owners located, and with expertise, in the region. 2. Geographic markets deserving of focus must be among the nation’s best markets with a strong primary industry foundation and diversified enough to withstand downturns in their primary industry. We consider markets to be local if they can be reached from the Washington centered market within two hours by car. Our Washington centered market reaches north to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and south to Richmond, Virginia. While we have historically focused most of our investments in the greater Washington metro region, in order to maximize acquisition opportunities we will and have considered investments within the two-hour radius described above. We will also consider opportunities to duplicate our Washington focused approach in other geographic markets which meet the criteria described above. All of our Trustees, officers and employees live and work in the greater Washington metro region and our officers average over 20 years of experience in this region. This section includes or refers to certain forward-looking statements. You should refer to the explanation of the qualifications and limitations on such forward-looking statements beginning on page 51.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries The greater Washington Metro Area economy The Washington metro region is currently the 8th largest metropolitan statistical area in the United States. 2006 proved to be another year of strong performance for the greater Washington metro region with the professional and business services sectors fueling job growth. The region’s labor market economic indicators verify the strength of the region’s economy with the unemployment rate at 3.0% for the 12 months ended November 2006, which is the lowest rate among all of the nation’s largest metro areas and well below the national average of 4.5%. The U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, reported the metropolitan Washington region experienced above average job growth by adding 66,200 jobs through the 12 months ended November 2006, 21% above the long- term average of 54,800. According to the Center for Regional Analysis (“CRA”) at George Mason University, the increase in jobs were concentrated in the professional and business services and high value-added occupations in health, education, and finance which accounted for 63.4% of the gains. While there have been shifts among its core industries, the Washington metro area has a robust economy that continues to grow. The professional and business services, education and health services, and retail trade are the core industries that experienced the most job growth in the greater Washington metro economy. In 2005, the Federal government, professional and business services, and transportation were the sectors that led job growth. Federal government employees are pursuing higher paid jobs as contractors, fueling growth in professional and business services. While analysts project a shift in Congress’ focus, overall Federal procurement spending should remain high in the region, but will taper off from the growth levels experienced in 2004 and 2005. The Washington area’s gross regional product (“GRP”) was $334.8 billion in 2006, a 4% increase compared to 2005. Over one-third of the area’s GRP was generated by the Federal government. We believe regional job growth in 2007 will continue to be driven by professional and business services firms, including government contractors. CRA projects the economy will add 56,600 new jobs in 2007 and forecast GRP growth of 3.5% for the Washington metro area in 2007. greater Washington Metro Region Real estate Markets The robust economy in the greater Washington metro region has translated into stronger relative real estate market performance in each of our sectors, compared to other national metropolitan regions as reported by Delta Associates / Transwestern Commercial Services (“Delta”), a national full service real estate firm that provides market research and evaluation services for commercial property types including office, industrial, retail and apartments: Office and Medical Office Sectors • Rents rose 2.7% in 2006 in the region, and rents are expected to rise 2.5% in 2007. • Vacancy was 8.5% at year-end 2006, up from 7.9% at year-end 2005 and down from 9.2% at year-end 2004. The region has the fifth lowest vacancy rate of large metro areas in the United States. • The overall vacancy rate is projected to increase to 9.4% in the District over the next two years due to increased supply – still below the national average of 10.4%. • Net absorption totaled 6.8 million square feet, down from 7.6 million square feet in 2005. • Of the 16.8 million square feet of office space under construction at year-end 2006, 35% is pre-leased. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  Multifamily Sector • Overall, apartment rents increased 4.7% in the greater Washington metro region in 2006. • Delta reports that given modest vacancy rates and solid rent growth, prospects for the apartment market in the Washington market are excellent. grocery-Anchored Retail Centers Sector • Steady vacancy rates at 2.3% at year-end 2006 compared to 2.9% at year-end 2005. • Rental rates at grocery-anchored centers increased 5.7% in 2006. Industrial/Flex Sector • Average industrial rents increased 2.8% in the greater Washington/Baltimore region in 2006. • Rents are projected to increase 1.5-2.5% in 2007, as market conditions remain favorable. • Vacancy was 9.8% at year-end 2006, up from 9.4% at year-end 2005 and down from 10.4% at year-end 2004. • Of the 10.1 million square feet of industrial space under construction at year-end 2006, 21% is pre-leased, compared to 5.1 million and 34%, respectively, at year-end 2005. WRIT PORTFOLIO As of December 31, 2006, we owned a diversified portfolio of 82 properties consisting of 24 general purpose office properties, 13 medical office properties, 14 retail centers, 9 multifamily properties, 22 industrial/flex properties and land held for development. Our principal objective is to invest in high quality properties in prime locations, then proactively manage, lease, and direct ongoing capital improvement programs to improve their economic performance. The percentage of total real estate rental revenue by property group for 2006, 2005 and 2004 and the percent leased, calculated as the percentage of physical net rentable area leased, as of December 31, 2006 were as follows: Percent Leased* December 31, 2006 93% 99% 96% 94% 93% Office buildings Medical office buildings Retail centers Multifamily Industrial * Data excludes discontinued operations. 2006 40% 11 17 15 17 Real Estate Rental Revenue* 2005 40% 10 17 16 17 2004 45% 8 16 17 14 100% 100% 100% On a combined basis, our portfolio was 94% leased at December 31, 2006, 94% leased at December 31, 2005 and 92% leased at December 31, 2004.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries Total rental revenue from continuing operations was $219.7 million for 2006, $190.0 million for 2005 and $171.6 million for 2004. During the three year period ended December 31, 2006, we acquired four general purpose office buildings, eight medical office buildings, three retail centers and seven industrial properties. During that same time frame, we sold three office buildings and one industrial property. These acquisitions and dispositions were the primary reason for the shifting of each group’s percentage of total revenue reflected above. No single tenant accounted for more than 3.5% of revenue in 2006, 3.3% of revenue in 2005, and 3.3% of revenue in 2004. All Federal government tenants in the aggregate accounted for approximately 2.3% of our 2006 total revenue. Federal government tenants include the Department of Defense, U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, Federal Bureau of Investigation, Office of Personnel Management, Secret Service, Federal Aviation Administration, NASA and the National Institutes of Health. WRIT’s larger non-federal government tenants include the World Bank, Sunrise Senior Living, Inc., Sun Microsystems, INOVA Health Systems, URS Corporations, George Washington University, Lockheed Corporations, United Communications Group and Westat. We expect to continue investing in additional income producing properties. We only invest in properties which we believe will increase in income and value. Our properties compete for tenants with other properties throughout the respective areas in which they are located on the basis of location, quality and rental rates. We have recently engaged in ground-up development in order to further strengthen our portfolio with long-term growth prospects. We currently have three ground-up development projects underway. The first is a 224-unit apartment property in Arlington, VA, referred to as Bennett Park, formerly Rosslyn Towers, with completion of the mid-rise building expected in the second quarter 2007 and the high-rise building expected in the third quarter 2007. The second is a 75-unit apartment property in Alexandria, VA referred to as The Clayborne Apartments, formerly South Washington Street, with completion expected in the third quarter of 2007. The third is our December 2005 acquisition of Dulles Station in Herndon, VA. The property is entitled for two office buildings totaling 540,000 square feet. The completion of the first 180,000 square foot office building is expected in the third quarter 2007 and construction of the 360,000 square foot second building is expected to commence sometime in 2008 or 2009, depending on market conditions. We make capital improvements on an ongoing basis to our properties for the purpose of maintaining and increasing their value and income. Major improvements and/or renovations to the properties in 2006, 2005, and 2004 are discussed under the heading “Capital Improvements.” Further description of the property groups is contained in Item 2, Properties and in Schedule III. Reference is also made to Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. On February 22, 2007, we had 282 employees including 199 persons engaged in property management functions and 83 persons engaged in corporate, financial, leasing, asset management and other functions.

We refer to the shares of beneficial interest in Washington Real Estate Investment Trust as our “shares,” and the investors who own shares as our “shareholders.” This section includes or refers to certain forward-looking statements. You should refer to the explanation of the qualifications and limitations on such forward-looking statements beginning on page 51. Our performance and value are subject to risks associated with our real estate assets and with the real estate industry. Our economic performance and the value of our real estate assets are subject to the risk that if our office, medical office, industrial, multifamily and retail properties do not generate revenues sufficient to meet our operating expenses, including debt service and capital expenditures, our cash flow and ability to pay distributions to our shareholders will be adversely affected. The following factors, among others, may adversely affect the revenues generated by our commercial and multifamily properties: • downturns in the national, regional and local economic climate; • competition from similar asset type properties; • local real estate market conditions, such as oversupply or reduction in demand for office, industrial, multi- family or retail properties; increased operating costs, including insurance premiums, utilities and real estate taxes; inflation; • changes in interest rates and availability of financing; • vacancies, changes in market rental rates and the need to periodically repair, renovate and re-let space; • • • weather conditions; • consumer confidence, unemployment rates, and consumer tastes and preferences; • civil disturbances, earthquakes and other natural disasters, terrorist acts or acts of war may result in uninsured or underinsured losses; • significant expenditures associated with each investment, such as debt service payments, real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance costs, are generally not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in revenues from a property; and • the economic health of our tenants and the ability to collect rents. We are dependent upon the economic climate of the Washington metropolitan region. All of our properties are located in the Washington metropolitan region which exposes us to a greater amount of risk than if we were geographically diverse. General economic conditions and local real estate conditions in our geographic region may be dependent upon one or more industries, thus, a downturn in one of the industries may have a particularly strong effect. In particular, economic conditions in our market are directly affected by Federal government spending in the region. In the event of reduced Federal spending or negative economic changes in our region, we may experience a negative impact to our profitability and may be limited in our ability to make distributions to our shareholders. We face risks associated with property acquisitions. We intend to continue to acquire properties which would continue to increase our size and could alter our capital structure. Our acquisition activities and success may be exposed to the following risks:  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries • we may be unable to acquire a desired property because of competition from other real estate investors, including publicly traded real estate investment trusts, institutional investment funds and private investors; • even if we enter into an acquisition agreement for a property, it is subject to customary conditions to closing, including completion of due diligence investigations have findings that are unacceptable; • competition from other real estate investors may significantly increase the purchase price; • we may be unable to finance acquisitions on favorable terms; • acquired properties may fail to perform as we expected in analyzing our investments; and • our estimates of the costs of repositioning or redeveloping acquired properties may be inaccurate. We may acquire properties subject to liabilities and without recourse, or with limited recourse, with respect to unknown liabilities. As a result, if liability were asserted against us based upon the acquisition of a property, we may have to pay substantial sums to settle it, which could adversely affect our cash flow. Unknown liabilities with respect to properties acquired might include: liabilities for clean-up of undisclosed environmental contamination; • • claims by tenants, vendors or other persons dealing with the former owners of the properties; • • claims for indemnification by general partners, directors, officers and others indemnified by the former owners liabilities incurred in the ordinary course of business; and of the properties. We face new and different risks associated with property development. The ground-up development of Bennett Park, formerly Rosslyn Towers, The Clayborne Apartments, formerly South Washington Street, and Dulles Station, as opposed to renovation and redevelopment of an existing property, is a relatively new activity for WRIT. Developing properties, in addition to the risks historically associated with our business, presents a number of new and additional risks for us, including risks that: • the development opportunity may be abandoned after expending significant resources resulting in the loss of deposits or failure to recover expenses already incurred, if we are unable to obtain all necessary zoning and other required governmental permits and authorizations or abandon the project for any other reason; • the development and construction costs of the project may exceed original estimates due to increased interest rates and increased materials, labor, leasing or other costs, which could make the completion of the project less profitable because market rents may not increase sufficiently to compensate for the increase in construction costs; • construction and/or permanent financing may not be available on favorable terms or may not be available at all, which may cause the cost of the project to increase and lower the expected return; • the project may not be completed on schedule as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, such as weather, labor conditions and material shortages, which would result in increases in construction costs and debt service expenses; and • occupancy rates and rents at the newly completed property may not meet the expected levels and could be insufficient to make the property profitable. Properties developed or acquired for development may generate little or no cash flow from the date of acquisition through the date of completion of development. In addition, new development activities, regardless of whether or not they are ultimately successful, may require a substantial portion of management’s time and attention. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  These risks could result in substantial unanticipated delays or expenses and, under certain circumstances, could prevent completion of development activities once undertaken, any of which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow, the trading price of our common shares, and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and to pay dividends to shareholders. We face potential difficulties or delays renewing leases or re-leasing space. From 2007 through 2011, leases on our commercial properties will expire on a total of approximately 69% of our leased square footage as of December 31, 2006, with leases on approximately 11% of our leased square footage expiring in 2007, 12% in 2008, 15% in 2009, 18% in 2010 and 13% in 2011. We derive substantially all of our income from rent received from tenants. Also, if our tenants decide not to renew their leases, we may not be able to re-let the space. If tenants decide to renew their leases, the terms of renewals, including the cost of required improvements or concessions, may be less favorable than current lease terms. As a result, our cash flow could decrease and our ability to make distributions to our shareholders could be adversely affected. Residential properties are leased under operating leases with terms of generally one year or less. For the years ended 2006, 2005 and 2004, the residential tenant retention rate was 68%, 57% and 59%, respectively. We face potential adverse effects from major tenants’ bankruptcies or insolvencies. The bankruptcy or insolvency of a major tenant may adversely affect the income produced by a property. Although we have not experienced material losses from tenant bankruptcies or insolvencies in the past, a major tenant could file for bankruptcy protection or become insolvent in the future. We cannot evict a tenant solely because of its bankruptcy. On the other hand, a court might authorize the tenant to reject and terminate its lease. In such case, our claim against the bankrupt tenant for unpaid, future rent would be subject to a statutory cap that might be substantially less than the remaining rent actually owed under the lease, and, our claim for unpaid rent would likely not be paid in full. This shortfall could adversely affect our cash flow and results from operations. If a tenant experiences a downturn in its business or other types of financial distress, it may be unable to make timely rental payments. Our properties face significant competition. We face significant competition from developers, owners and operators of office, medical office, industrial, multifamily, retail and other commercial real estate. Substantially all of our properties face competition from similar properties in the same market. Such competition may affect our ability to attract and retain tenants and may reduce the rents we are able to charge. These competing properties may have vacancy rates higher than our properties, which may result in their owners being willing to make space available at lower prices than the space in our properties. Compliance or failure to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act and other laws could result in substantial costs. The Americans with Disabilities Act generally requires that public buildings, including commercial and multifamily properties, be made accessible to disabled persons. Noncompliance could result in imposition of fines by the Federal government or the award of damages to private litigants. If, pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act, we are required to make substantial alterations and capital expenditures in one or more of our properties, including the removal of access barriers, it could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations, as well as the amount of cash available for distribution to our shareholders. We may also incur significant costs complying with other regulations. Our properties are subject to various federal, state and local regulatory requirements, such as state 10 Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries and local fire and life safety requirements. If we fail to comply with these requirements, we may incur fines or private damage awards. We believe that our properties are currently in material compliance with all of these regulatory requirements. However, we do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether compliance with future requirements will require significant unanticipated expenditures that will adversely affect our cash flow and results from operations. Some potential losses are not covered by insurance. We carry insurance coverage on our properties of types and in amounts that we believe are in line with coverage customarily obtained by owners of similar properties. We believe all of our properties are adequately insured. The property insurance that we maintain for our properties has historically been on an “all risk” basis, which is in full force and effect until renewal in September 2007. There are other types of losses, such as from wars or catastrophic acts of nature, for which we cannot obtain insurance at all or at a reasonable cost. In the event of an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of our insurance limits, we could lose both the revenues generated from the affected property and the capital we have invested in the affected property. Depending on the specific circumstances of the affected property it is possible that we could be liable for any mortgage indebtedness or other obligations related to the property. Any such loss could adversely affect our business and financial condition and results of operations. Also, we have to renew our policies in most cases on an annual basis and negotiate acceptable terms for coverage, exposing us to the volatility of the insurance markets, including the possibility of rate increases. Any material increase in insurance rates or decrease in available coverage in the future could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition. Potential liability for environmental contamination could result in substantial costs. Under Federal, state and local environmental laws, ordinances and regulations, we may be required to investigate and clean up the effects of releases of hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products at our properties, regardless of our knowledge or responsibility, simply because of our current or past ownership or operation of the real estate. In addition, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration are increasingly involved in indoor air quality standards, especially with respect to asbestos, mold and medical waste. The clean up of any environmental contamination, including asbestos and mold, can be costly. If unidentified environmental problems arise, we may have to make substantial payments which could adversely affect our cash flow, because: • as owner or operator we may have to pay for property damage and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred in connection with the contamination; • the law typically imposes clean-up responsibility and liability regardless of whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the contamination; • even if more than one person may be responsible for the contamination, each person who shares legal liability under the environmental laws may be held responsible for all of the clean-up costs; and • governmental entities and third parties may sue the owner or operator of a contaminated site for damages and costs. These costs could be substantial and in extreme cases could exceed the value of the contaminated property. The presence of hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products or the failure to properly remediate contamination may adversely affect our ability to borrow against, sell or rent an affected property. In addition, applicable Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries 11 environmental laws create liens on contaminated sites in favor of the government for damages and costs it incurs in connection with a contamination. We have a storage tank third party liability, corrective action and cleanup policy in place to cover potential hazardous releases from underground storage tanks on our properties. This insurance is in place to mitigate any potential remediation costs from the effect of releases of hazardous or toxic substances from these storage tanks. Additional coverage is in place under a pollution legal liability real estate policy. This would, dependent on circumstance and type of pollutants discovered, provide further coverage above and beyond the storage tank policy. Environmental laws also govern the presence, maintenance and removal of asbestos. Such laws require that owners or operators of buildings containing asbestos: • properly manage and maintain the asbestos; • notify and train those who may come into contact with asbestos; and • undertake special precautions, including removal or other abatement, if asbestos would be disturbed during renovation or demolition of a building. Such laws may impose fines and penalties on building owners or operators who fail to comply with these requirements and may allow third parties to seek recovery from owners or operators for personal injury associated with exposure to asbestos fibers. It is our policy to retain independent environmental consultants to conduct Phase I environmental site assessments and asbestos surveys with respect to our acquisition of properties. These assessments generally include a visual inspection of the properties and the surrounding areas, an examination of current and historical uses of the properties and the surrounding areas and a review of relevant state, Federal and historical documents, but do not involve invasive techniques such as soil and ground water sampling. Where appropriate, on a property-by-property basis, our practice is to have these consultants conduct additional testing, including sampling for asbestos, for mold, for lead in drinking water, for soil contamination where underground storage tanks are or were located or where other past site usages create a potential environmental problem, and for contamination in groundwater. Even though these environmental assessments are conducted, there is still the risk that: • the environmental assessments and updates did not identify all potential environmental liabilities; • a prior owner created a material environmental condition that is not known to us or the independent consultants preparing the assessments; • new environmental liabilities have developed since the environmental assessments were conducted; and • future uses or conditions such as changes in applicable environmental laws and regulations could result in environmental liability to us. Recently enacted changes in securities laws are likely to increase our costs. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as rules subsequently implemented by the Securities and Exchange Commission, has required changes in some of our corporate governance and accounting practices. In addition, the New York Stock Exchange has promulgated a number of regulations. We expect these laws, rules and regulations to increase our legal and financial compliance costs and to continue to make some activities more difficult, time consuming and costly. We also expect these rules and regulations to continue to make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and we incur significantly higher costs to obtain coverage. These laws, rules and regulations could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified members of our board of trustees, particularly to serve on our audit committee, and qualified executive officers. 1 Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries We face risks associated with the use of debt to fund acquisitions and developments, including refinancing risk. We rely on borrowings under our credit facilities to finance acquisitions and development activities and for working capital. If we were unable to borrow under our credit facilities, or to refinance existing indebtedness, our financial condition and results of operations would likely be adversely affected. We are subject to the risks normally associated with debt financing, including the risk that our cash flow may be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest. We anticipate that only a small portion of the principal of our debt will be repaid prior to maturity. Therefore, we are likely to need to refinance at least a portion of our outstanding debt as it matures. There is a risk that we may not be able to refinance existing debt or that the terms of any refinancing will not be as favorable as the terms of the existing debt. If principal payments due at maturity cannot be refinanced, extended or repaid with proceeds from other sources, such as new equity capital, our cash flow will not be sufficient to repay all maturing debt in years when significant “balloon” payments come due. Rising interest rates would increase our interest costs. We may incur indebtedness that bears interest at variable rates. Accordingly, if interest rates increase, so will our interest costs, which could adversely affect our cash flow and our ability to service debt. As a protection against rising interest rates, we may enter into agreements such as interest rate swaps, caps, floors and other interest rate exchange contracts. These agreements, however, increase our risks including other parties to the agreements not performing or that the agreements may be unenforceable. Covenants in our debt agreements could adversely affect our financial condition. Our credit facilities contain customary restrictions, requirements and other limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness. We must maintain certain ratios, including total debt to assets, secured debt to total assets, debt service coverage and minimum ratios of unencumbered assets to unsecured debt. Our ability to borrow under our credit facilities is subject to compliance with our financial and other covenants. Failure to comply with any of the covenants under our unsecured credit facilities or other debt instruments could result in a default under one or more of our debt instruments. This could cause our lenders to accelerate the timing of payments and would therefore have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, financial condition and liquidity. Further issuances of equity securities may be dilutive to current shareholders. The interests of our existing shareholders could be diluted if additional equity securities are issued to finance future developments and acquisitions instead of incurring additional debt. Our ability to execute our business strategy depends on our access to an appropriate blend of debt financing, including unsecured lines of credit and other forms of secured and unsecured debt, and equity financing. Failure to qualify as a ReIT would cause us to be taxed as a corporation, which would substantially reduce funds available for payment of dividends. If we fail to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we would be taxed as a corporation. We believe that we are organized and qualified as a REIT and intend to operate in a manner that will allow us to continue to qualify as a REIT. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries 1 If we fail to qualify as a REIT we could face serious tax consequences that could substantially reduce the funds available for payment of dividends for each of the years involved because: • we would not be allowed a deduction for dividends paid to shareholders in computing our taxable income and could be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates; • we also could be subject to the Federal alternative minimum tax and possibly increased state and local taxes; • unless we are entitled to relief under statutory provisions, we could not elect to be subject to tax as a REIT for four taxable years following the year during which we are disqualified; and • all dividends would be subject to tax as ordinary income to the extent of our current and accumulated earnings and profits potentially eligible as “qualified dividends” subject to the 15% income tax rate. In addition, if we fail to qualify as a REIT, we would no longer be required to pay dividends. As a result of these factors, our failure to qualify as a REIT could impair our ability to expand our business and raise capital, and could adversely affect the value of our shares. The market value of our securities can be adversely affected by many factors. As with any public company, a number of factors may adversely influence the public market price of our common shares, many of which are beyond our control. These factors include: level of institutional interest in us; • • perceived attractiveness of investment in WRIT, in comparison to other REITs; • attractiveness of securities of REITs in comparison to other asset classes taking into account, among other things, that a substantial portion of REITs’ dividends are taxed as ordinary income; • our financial condition and performance; • the market’s perception of our growth potential and potential future cash dividends; • government action or regulation, including changes in tax law; • increases in market interest rates, which may lead investors to expect a higher annual yield from our distributions in relation to the price of our shares; and • relatively low trading volume of shares of REITs in general, which tends to exacerbate a market trend with respect to our stock. Provisions of the Maryland general Corporation Law, or the MgCL, may limit a change in control of our company. There are several provisions of the Maryland General Corporation Law, or the MGCL, that may limit the ability of a third party to acquire a change in control of our company, including: • a provision where a corporation is not required to engage in any business combination with any “interested stockholder,” defined as any holder or affiliate of any holder of 10% or more of the corporation’s stock, for a period of five years pursuant to that holder becoming an “interested stockholder;” • a provision where the voting rights of “control shares” acquired in a “control share acquisition,” as defined in the law, may be restricted, such that the “control shares” have no voting rights, except to the extent approved by a vote of two-thirds of the votes entitled to be cast on the matter. These provisions may delay, defer, or prevent a transaction or a change in control of our company that may involve a premium price for holders of our common stock or otherwise be in their best interests.

ITeM 7. MANAgeMeNT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND ReSULTS OF OPeRATIONS The discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an on-going basis, we evaluate these estimates, including those related to estimated useful lives of real estate assets, estimated fair value of acquired leases, cost reimbursement income, bad debts, contingencies and litigation. We base the estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. There can be no assurance that actual results will not differ from those estimates. Overview Our revenues are derived primarily from the ownership and operation of income-producing properties in the greater Washington metro region. As of December 31, 2006, we owned a diversified portfolio of 82 properties, consisting of 14 retail centers, 24 general purpose office properties, 13 medical office properties, 22 industrial/flex properties, 9 multi-family properties encompassing in the aggregate 11.8 million net rentable square feet, and land for development. We have a fundamental strategy of regional focus, diversification by property type and conservative capital management. 0 Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries When evaluating our financial condition and operating performance, management focuses on the following financial and non-financial indicators, discussed in further detail herein: • Net Operating Income (“NOI”) by segment. NOI is calculated as real estate rental revenue less real estate operating expenses excluding depreciation. It is a supplemental measure to Net Income. • Economic occupancy (or “occupancy”—defined as actual rental revenues recognized for the period indicated as a percentage of gross potential rental revenues for that period), leased percentage (the percentage of available physical net rentable area leased for our commercial segments and percentage of apartment units leased for our residential segment) and rental rates. • Leasing activity—new leases, renewals and expirations. • Funds From Operations (“FFO”), a supplemental measure to Net Income. During 2006, we continued our long-standing strategy of focusing our investment in the greater Washington metro region, one of the most stable real estate markets in the country. The area’s economy continues to expand, but at a decelerating pace as growth rates have normalized from the accelerated growth experienced in 2004 and 2005. The region posted positive job growth of approximately 2.3% in the twelve months ended November 2006 and an unemployment rate of 3.0% compared to the national averages of 1.3% and 4.5%, respectively. The job growth occurred principally in the professional and business services, education and health, and retail trade sectors. Overall conditions in the region were strong in 2006, with Washington, D.C. remaining one of the top office and high-rise apartment investment markets in the country. Overall occupancies, as well as our results in 2006, were primarily impacted by the $423.4 million in acquisitions we completed in 2006 and 2005, dispositions in 2005 of $37.0 million and the performance of our core portfolio (consisting of properties owned for the entirety of 2006 and the same time period in 2005) which improved compared to 2005. The performance of our five operating segments generally reflected market conditions in our region: • The regional office market was steady during the year with overall vacancy increasing slightly due to increased supply. Northern Virginia and the District experienced strong absorption, while suburban Maryland’s market softened. The Washington metro region has the fifth lowest overall vacancy rate in the United States, among large metro areas; however, the overall vacancy rate for the region increased slightly to 8.6% from 7.9% one year ago. Our general purpose office portfolio was 92.1% occupied, for 2006, a significant improvement from the year 2005 at 87.9%. • The medical office market continues to be excellent with little to no new construction activity and strong demand. This is reflected in our medical office portfolio occupancy of 98.9% for the year 2006. • The neighborhood and community shopping center market remained strong in the region due to continued job growth, leading to high occupancies and strong sales. Our retail portfolio was 96.0% occupied for the year 2006. • The multifamily market is in strong condition due to job market and low unemployment rate combined with high barriers to entry that have kept the pipeline of on-coming apartment supply in check. The multifamily portfolio was 92.4% occupied for the year 2006. • The industrial market is still healthy, but has softened since last year. Rents have increased 2.6% while absorption has declined from 2005 levels. Our industrial portfolio experienced positive rental rate growth and was 93% occupied for the year 2006. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries 1 During 2006, we completed the redevelopment of the Shoppes at Foxchase, a retail shopping center anchored by the Harris Teeter grocery store. Development continued at Bennett Park, formerly Rosslyn Towers, which is a Class A high-rise and mid-rise apartment community located in Arlington, Virginia. We progressed on the development of The Clayborne Apartments, formerly South Washington Street, which is a Class A apartment building that includes additional retail space located in Alexandria, Virginia. Development began on the first phase of Dulles Station, which consists of 180,000 square feet of office space located in Herndon, Virginia. The development of Bennett Park, The Clayborne Apartments, and phase one of Dulles Station is anticipated to be complete during 2007. Significant transactions during the two years ended December 31, 2006 are summarized below: 2006 • The acquisition of six medical office properties for $105.9 million, adding approximately 336,000 square feet of rentable space, 98.3% leased at the end of 2006, three general purpose office properties for $112.0 million adding approximately 533,000 square feet of rentable space, 92.6% leased at the end of 2006, three industrial/ flex properties for $34.8 million, adding approximately 404,000 square feet of rentable space, 82.3% leased at the end of 2006 and two retail centers, for $50.3 million, adding approximately 225,000 square feet of rentable space, 70.8% leased as of the end of 2006. • The completion of a public offering of 2,745,000 shares of beneficial interest priced at $34.40 per share raising $90.9 million, net. • The issuance of $150.0 million of 5.95% senior unsecured notes due June 15, 2011 at an effective yield of 5.961% raising $149.6 million, net. • The issuance of $100 million in convertible senior notes with a coupon of 3.875%, raising $97.0 million, net and the issuance of an additional $10 million of the convertible senior notes upon the exercise of the underwriters over-allotment option, raising an additional $9.7 million, net. • The opening of a new, unsecured revolving credit facility of $200.0 million. This facility replaces Credit Facility No. 3. Under the new Credit Facility interest only payments are due on a monthly basis until the maturity of this facility on November 2, 2010. • The investment of $68.6 million in the major development and redevelopment of several properties. • The execution of new leases for 1,611,000 square feet of commercial space. 2005 • The acquisition of one retail property, for $44.8 million, adding approximately 295,000 square feet of rentable retail space, 100% leased as of the end of 2005, one industrial property for $8.8 million, adding approximately 60,000 square feet of rentable industrial space, 100.0% leased as of the end of 2005 and one office and industrial property for $66.8 million, adding approximately 90,000 square feet of rentable office space and approximately 206,000 square feet of rentable industrial space, 97% leased as of the end of 2005. The $24.7 million acquisition of land for the development of a 540,000 square foot office complex. • The disposition of one industrial and three office properties, totaling approximately 480,000 square feet, for a gain of approximately $35.1 million and the recognition of a previously deferred gain of $1.9 million from the sale of an office property in November, 2004. • The extension and increase of our line of Credit Facility No. 1 until 2008 for $70 million.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries • The issuance of $50.0 million of 5.05% senior unsecured notes due May 1, 2012 and $50.0 million of 5.35% senior unsecured notes due May 1, 2015, at effective yields of 5.064% and 5.359%, respectively. On October 3, 2005, we reopened the series of 5.35% senior unsecured notes and issued an additional $100 million of notes. • The investment of $17.3 million in the development and redevelopment of several properties. • The execution of new leases for 1,720,000 square feet of commercial space. Critical Accounting Policies and estimates We believe the following critical accounting policies reflect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 8 of this Form 10-K. New Accounting Pronouncements In December, 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment.” This statement is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersedes APB opinion No. 25 (APB No. 25), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows.” Statement No. 123R addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the enterprise or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. SFAS No. 123R requires all share- based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values and eliminates the intrinsic value method of accounting in APB No. 25, which was permitted under SFAS No. 123, as originally issued. The Company has applied the provisions of this statement as of January 1, 2006. Since we used the fair-value-based method of accounting under the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, in pro forma disclosure, we were required to adopt the provisions of the new standard using either the modified-prospective- transition or the modified-retrospective-transition method. Under both methods, for awards granted, settled or modified subsequent to adopting the standard and for awards granted prior to the date of adoption for which the requisite service has not been completed as of the adoption date, compensation cost must be recognized in the financial statements. Under the modified-retrospective-method, financial statements for prior periods are restated for this change and under the modified prospective method only statements subsequent to adoption will include this compensation cost. The modified-prospective-method also requires a cumulative adjustment in the first period of adoption to conform to the new standard. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 123R using the modified-prospective- transition method and that adoption did not have a material impact on income from continuing operations, net income, cash flows from operations or financing activities, or basic and diluted EPS. In July, 2006 the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes”, an interpretation of FAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (FIN 48), to create a single model to address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes, by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. WRIT will adopt FIN 48 as of January 1, 2007, as required. We do not expect that the adoption of FIN 48 will have a significant impact on our financial position and results of operations. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 106, and 132(R)” (SFAS No. 158). SFAS No. 158 requires plan sponsors of defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans (collectively, “postretirement benefit plans”) to recognize the funded status of their postretirement benefit plans in the statement of financial position, measure the fair value of plan assets and benefit obligation as of the date of the fiscal year-end statement of financial position, and provide additional disclosures. On December 31, 2006, the Company adopted the recognition and disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 158. SFAS No. 158 did not have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition at December 31, 2006. SFAS No. 158’s provisions regarding the change in the measurement date of postretirement benefit plans are not applicable as the Company already uses a measurement date of December 31 for its defined benefit plan. See Note 8 to the consolidated financial statements for further discussion of the effect of adopting SFAS No. 158 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Revenue Recognition Residential properties are leased under operating leases with terms of generally one year or less, and commercial properties are leased under operating leases with average terms of three to seven years. We recognize rental income and rental abatements from our residential and commercial leases when earned on a straight-line basis in accordance with SFAS No. 13 “Accounting for Leases.” Recognition of rental income commences when control of the facility has been given to the tenant. We record a provision for losses on accounts receivable equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. This estimate is based on our historical experience and a review of the current status of the company’s receivables. Percentage rents, which represent additional rents based on gross tenant sales, are recognized when tenants’ sales exceed specified thresholds. In accordance with SFAS No. 66, “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate,” sales are recognized at closing only when sufficient down payments have been obtained, possession and other attributes of ownership have been transferred to the buyer and we have no significant continuing involvement. We recognize cost reimbursement income from pass-through expenses on an accrual basis over the periods in which the expenses were incurred. Pass-through expenses are comprised of real estate taxes, operating expenses and common area maintenance costs which are reimbursed by tenants in accordance with specific allowable costs per tenant lease agreements. Capital Expenditures We capitalize those expenditures related to acquiring new assets, significantly increasing the value of an existing asset, or substantially extending the useful life of an existing asset. We also capitalize costs incurred in connection with our development projects, including capitalizing interest during periods in which development projects are in progress. Expenditures necessary to maintain an existing property in ordinary operating condition are expensed as incurred. In addition, we capitalize tenant leasehold improvements when certain conditions are met, including when we supervise construction and will own the improvements. Real Estate Assets Real estate assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives ranging from 28 to 50 years. All capital improvement expenditures associated with replacements, improvements, or major repairs to real property are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 30 years. All tenant improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life or the term of the lease.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries We allocate the purchase price of acquired properties to the related physical assets and in-place leases based on their relative fair values, in accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” The fair values of acquired buildings are determined on an “as-if-vacant” basis considering a variety of factors, including the physical condition and quality of the buildings, estimated rental and absorption rates, estimated future cash flows and valuation assumptions consistent with current market conditions. The “as-if-vacant” fair value is allocated to land, building and tenant improvements based on property tax assessments and other relevant information obtained in connection with the acquisition of the property. The fair value of in-place leases consists of the following components – (1) the estimated cost to us to replace the leases, including foregone rents during the period of finding a new tenant and foregone recovery of tenant pass- throughs (referred to as “Absorption Cost”), (2) the estimated cost of tenant improvements, and other direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant (referred to as “Tenant Origination Cost”); (3) estimated leasing commissions associated with obtaining a new tenant (referred to as “Leasing Commissions”); (4) the above/at/below market cash flow of the leases, determined by comparing the projected cash flows of the leases in place to projected cash flows of comparable market-rate leases (referred to as “Net Lease Intangible”); and (5) the value, if any, of customer relationships, determined based on our evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and our overall relationship with the tenant (referred to as “Customer Relationship Value”). The amounts used to calculate Net Lease Intangible are discounted using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired. Tenant Origination Costs are included in Real Estate Assets on our balance sheet and are amortized as depreciation expense on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of the underlying leases. Leasing Commissions and Absorption Costs are classified as Other Assets and are amortized as amortization expense on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of the underlying leases. Net Lease Intangible Assets are classified as Other Assets and are amortized on a straight-line basis as a decrease to Real Estate Rental Revenue over the remaining term of the underlying leases. Net Lease Intangible Liabilities are classified as Other Liabilities and are amortized on a straight-line basis as an increase to Real Estate Rental Revenue over the remaining term of the underlying leases. Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the Tenant Origination Cost, Leasing Commissions, Absorption Costs and Net Lease Intangible associated with that lease are written off to depreciation expense, amortization expense, and rental revenue, respectively. Discontinued Operations We dispose of assets (sometimes using tax-deferred exchanges) that are inconsistent with our long-term strategic or return objectives and when market conditions for sale are favorable. The proceeds from the sales are reinvested into other properties, used to fund development operations or to support other corporate needs, or are distributed to our shareholders. We classify properties as held for sale when they meet the necessary criteria specified by SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”. These include: senior management commits to and actively embarks upon a plan to sell the assets, the sale is expected to be completed within one year under terms usual and customary for such sales and actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. Depreciation on these properties is discontinued, but operating revenues, operating expenses and interest expense continue to be recognized until the date of sale. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  Under SFAS No. 144, revenues and expenses of properties that are either sold or classified as held for sale are treated as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the Statements of Income. As of December 31, 2006 there were no properties held for sale or classified as discontinued operations. Impairment Losses on Long-Lived Assets We recognize impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations, development or land held for future development, when indicators of impairment are present and the net undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amount and estimated undiscounted cash flows associated with future development expenditures. If such carrying amount is in excess of the estimated cash flows from the operation and disposal of the property, we would recognize an impairment loss equivalent to an amount required to adjust the carrying amount to the estimated fair value. There were no property impairments recognized during the three-year period ended December 31, 2006. Federal Income Taxes We believe that we qualify as a REIT under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code and intend to continue to qualify as such. To maintain our status as a REIT, we are required to distribute 90% of our ordinary taxable income to our shareholders. We have the option of (i) reinvesting the sale price of properties sold, allowing for a deferral of income taxes on the sale, (ii) paying out capital gains to the shareholders with no tax to the company or (iii) treating the capital gains as having been distributed to the shareholders, paying the tax on the gain deemed distributed and allocating the tax paid as a credit to the shareholders. We distributed 100% of our 2006 and 2005 ordinary taxable income to shareholders. $33.5 million of the gain from property disposed in 2005 was reinvested in replacement properties. Approximately $3.5 million of the gain from disposed property in 2005 was distributed to shareholders. No provision for income taxes was necessary during the three year period ended December 31, 2006. ReSULTS OF OPeRATIONS The discussion that follows is based on our consolidated results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004. The ability to compare one period to another may be significantly affected by acquisitions completed and dispositions made during those years. For purposes of evaluating comparative operating performance, we categorize our properties as “core”, “non-core” or discontinued operations. A “core” property is one that was owned for the entirety of the periods being evaluated and is included in continuing operations. A “non-core” property is one that was acquired during either of the periods being evaluated and is included in continuing operations. Results for properties sold or held for sale during any of the periods evaluated are classified as discontinued operations. Fourteen properties were acquired during 2006, four properties were acquired during 2005 and four properties were acquired in 2004. There were no properties sold or classified as held for sale in 2006. Four properties were sold in 2005 and are classified as discontinued operations for the 2005 and 2004 Periods. One property was sold in 2004 and classified as discontinued operations for that year. To provide more insight into our operating results, our discussion is divided into two main sections: (1) Consolidated Results of Operations where we provide an overview analysis of results on a consolidated basis and (2) Net Operating Income (“NOI”) where we provide a detailed analysis of core versus non-core property-level NOI results by segment. NOI is calculated as real estate rental revenue less real estate operating expenses.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries Consolidated Results of Operations Real estate rental revenue Real estate rental revenue is summarized as follows (all data in thousands except percentage amounts): Minimum base rent Recoveries from tenants Parking and other tenant charges 2006 $196,922 2005 $170,038 2004 $154,956 2006 vs 2005 $26,884 % Change 15.8% 2005 vs 2004 $15,082 % Change 9.7% 19,029 3,711 15,482 4,526 11,989 4,701 3,547 22.9% 3,493 29.1% (815) (18.0%) (175) (3.7%) $219,662 $190,046 $171,646 $29,616 15.6% $18,400 10.7% Real estate rental revenue is comprised of (1) minimum base rent, which includes rental revenues recognized on a straight-line basis, (2) revenue from the recovery of operating expenses from our tenants and (3) other revenue such as parking and termination fees and percentage rents. Minimum base rent increased $26.9 million (15.8%) in 2006 as compared to 2005 and $15.1 million (9.7%) in 2005 as compared to 2004. The increase in minimum base rent in 2006 was due primarily to additional rent from properties acquired in 2005 and 2006 ($17.9 million), combined with a $9.0 million increase in minimum base rent from core properties due to rental rate increases in the office, multifamily, industrial and retail sectors and lower vacancies in the office sector. The increase in minimum base rent in 2005 was due primarily to the increase in rent from properties acquired in 2004 and 2005 ($12.5 million), combined with a $2.6 million increase in minimum base rent from core properties due to lower vacancies and rental rate increases in the retail, industrial and multifamily sectors. A summary of economic occupancy for properties classified as continuing operations by sector follows: Consolidated economic Occupancy Sector Office Medical Office Retail Multifamily Industrial Total 2006 92.1% 98.9% 96.0% 92.4% 93.3% 93.7% 2005 87.9% 98.4% 97.6% 93.2% 94.5% 92.3% 2004 89.2% 98.2% 94.8% 90.5% 92.7% 91.4% 2006 vs 2005 4.2% 0.5% (1.6%) (0.8%) (1.2%) 1.4% 2005 vs 2004 (1.3%) 0.2% 2.8% 2.7% 1.8% 0.9% Our overall economic occupancy increased 140 basis points in 2006 as compared to 2005 and increased 90 basis points in 2005 as compared to 2004. Property acquisitions and decreased vacancy in the office and medical office sectors, partially offset by higher vacancies in the retail, industrial and multifamily sectors, accounted for the increase in overall economic occupancy in 2006. Property acquisitions in the industrial and retail sectors and decreased vacancy in the multifamily sector, partially offset by higher vacancies in the office sector, accounted for the increase in overall economic occupancy in 2005. A detailed discussion of occupancy by sector can be found in the Net Operating Income section. Recoveries from tenants increased $3.5 million (22.9%) in 2006 as compared to 2005 and $3.5 million (29.1%) in 2005 as compared to 2004. The increase in recoveries from tenants in 2006 was due primarily to properties acquired in 2006 and 2005 ($3.1 million) and increased recovery income from core properties ($0.4 million) due to higher Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  operating expense, utilities, common area maintenance, real estate taxes. The increase in recoveries from tenants in 2005 was due primarily to increased recovery income from core properties ($1.7 million) due to higher operating expense, utilities, common area maintenance, real estate taxes and from properties acquired in 2005 and 2004 ($1.8 million). Parking and other tenant charges decreased $0.8 million in 2006 as compared to 2005 and decreased $0.2 million in 2005 as compared to 2004. The decrease in parking and other charges in 2006 was driven by core properties due primarily to higher bad debt expense and lower percentage rent. The decrease in parking and other tenant charges for 2005 compared to 2004 was due primarily to lower percentage rent. Real estate Operating expenses Real estate operating expenses are summarized as follows (all data in thousands except percentage amounts): Property operating expenses 2006 $48,933 2005 $42,158 2004 $37,266 2006 vs 2005 $6,775 % Change 16.1% Real estate taxes 18,335 15,958 14,062 2,377 14.9% 2005 vs 2004 $4,892 1,896 $67,268 $58,116 $51,328 $9,152 15.7% $6,788 % Change 13.1% 13.5% 13.2% Property operating expenses include utilities, repairs and maintenance, property administration and management, operating services, common area maintenance and other operating expenses. Real estate operating expenses as a percentage of revenue were 30.6% for 2006, 30.6% for 2005 and 29.9% for 2004. Properties acquired in 2005 and 2006 accounted for $4.8 million (70.8%) of the $6.8 million increase in 2006 property operating expenses. Core property operating expenses increased $2.0 million as a result of higher utility costs due largely to rate increases, increased administrative expenditures and higher repairs and maintenance costs. Real estate taxes increased $2.4 million due primarily to the properties acquired in 2005 and 2006, which accounted for $1.8 million (77.7%) of the increase. The remainder of the increase in real estate taxes was due primarily to higher value assessments among our core properties. Property acquisitions in 2004 and 2005 accounted for $2.1 million (43.5%) of the $4.9 million increase in property operating expenses in 2005. Core property operating expenses increased $2.9 million as a result of higher utility costs due largely to rate increases and an increase in the Montgomery County, MD energy tax, increased administrative expenditures and higher repairs and maintenance costs. Real estate taxes increased $1.9 million due primarily to property acquisitions, which accounted for $1.1 million (59.1%) of the increase. The remainder of the increase in real estate taxes was due primarily to higher value assessments among our core properties. Other Operating expenses Other operating expenses are summarized as follows (all data in thousands except percentage amounts): 2006 Depreciation and amortization $ 54,170 Interest expense General and administrative 47,846 12,622 2005 $47,161 2004 $39,309 2006 vs 2005 $ 7,009 % Change 14.9% 37,743 34,500 10,103 26.8% 8,005 6,194 4,617 57.7% 23.4% 2005 vs 2004 $ 7,852 3,243 1,811 $12,906 % Change 20.0% 9.4% 29.2% 16.1% $114,638 $92,909 $80,003 $21,729  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries Depreciation and amortization The $7.0 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense in 2006 relative to 2005 was due substantially to acquisitions of $303.0 million and $145.1 million in 2006 and 2005, respectively. The $7.9 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense in 2005 as compared to 2004 was due primarily to acquisition activity in both years. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense attributable to 2005 and 2004 acquisitions combined was $5.1 million (64.7%) of the total $7.9 million increase, due to the $145.1 million and $84.0 million acquisitions in 2005 and 2004, respectively. Interest expense Interest expense increased $10.1 million in 2006 compared to 2005 due to increased acquisition and development activity and increases in short term interest rates, partially offset by the refinancing of higher interest rate unsecured notes and mortgages. This activity was funded primarily by debt, including: (1) the issuance in June 2006 of $100.0 million of 5.95% unsecured notes due June 15, 2011 and $50.0 million of 5.95% unsecured notes due June 15, 2011, in September 2006 the issuance of $110.0 million of 3.875% senior convertible notes due September 15, 2026 as well as the issuance in April 2005 of $50.0 million of 5.05% senior unsecured notes due May 1, 2012 and $50.0 million of 5.35% senior unsecured notes due May 1, 2015 and in October 2005, the issuance of an additional $100.0 million of notes of the series of 5.35% senior unsecured notes due May 1, 2015, (2) the increase in short-term borrowing on our lines of credit, and (3) the assumption of five mortgages totaling $76.1 million for the acquisitions of 9707 Medical Center Drive ($5.7 million), Plumtree Medical Center ($4.9 million), 15005 Shady Grove Road ($8.8 million), West Gude Drive ($33.9 million) and The Ridges and Crescent ($23.0 million), offset somewhat by an increase in capitalized interest of $2.7 million. Interest expense increased $3.2 million in 2005 as compared to 2004 due to increased acquisition and development activity and increases in short term interest rates, partially offset by the refinancing of higher interest rate unsecured notes in November 2004, and higher rate mortgages repaid in 2005. This activity was funded with debt, including: (1) the issuance in April 2005 of $50.0 million of 5.05% senior unsecured notes due May 1, 2012 and $50.0 million of 5.35% senior unsecured notes due May 1, 2015 and in October 2005, the issuance of an additional $100.0 million of notes of the series of 5.35% senior unsecured notes due May 1, 2015, (2) the increase in short-term borrowing on our lines of credit, and (3) the mortgage assumption of $24.3 million in March 2005 for the acquisition of Frederick Crossing Shopping Center. Capitalized interest on development projects increased by $0.4 million. A summary of interest expense for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 appears below (in millions): Debt Type Notes payable Mortgages Lines of credit/short-term note payable Capitalized interest Total 2006 $36.2 11.8 3.6 (3.8) $47.8 2005 $25.5 11.2 2.1 (1.1) $37.7 2004 $24.5 9.7 1.0 (0.7) 2006 vs 2005 $10.7 0.6 1.5 (2.7) $34.5 $10.1 2005 vs 2004 $1.0 1.5 1.1 (0.4) $3.2 Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  General and administrative expense The $4.6 million increase in general and administrative expense in 2006 was due to increased salary costs for the addition of the Chief Investment Officer in 2005 and subsequent severance costs associated with his departure in June, 2006 of $1.6 million, recognition of compensation expense for accelerated vesting of CEO share grants (upon the adoption of SFAS No. 123R) of $1.2 million, higher incentive compensation and staff salary increases related to the growth of our portfolio. Benefits expense also increased as a result of these staffing and compensation increases. The $1.8 million increase in general and administrative expense in 2005 from 2004 was due primarily to increased salary costs for the addition of the Chief Investment Officer and other staff related to the growth of our portfolio. Benefits expenses also increased as a result of both this staffing and benefit rate increases. This was somewhat offset by decreases in reduced software maintenance and internal audit costs. Discontinued Operations We dispose of assets (sometimes using tax-deferred exchanges) that are inconsistent with our long-term strategic or return objectives and where market conditions for sale are favorable. The proceeds from the sales are reinvested into other properties, used to fund development, or distributed to our shareholders. There were no discontinued operations for 2006. Discontinued operations for 2005 consist of the properties sold in February and September 2005. For 2004, discontinued operations include those same properties and 8230 Boone Boulevard, which was sold on November 15, 2004. There was a gain of $1.9 million recognized in 2005 that had been previously deferred from the sale of Boone Boulevard. On September 8, 2005 the Pepsi Distribution Center, an industrial property, was sold for $6.0 million resulting in a gain of $3.0 million. Proceeds of $5.8 million were escrowed in a tax-free exchange account. On February 1, 2005 we sold three office buildings, 7700 Leesburg, Tycon Plaza II, Tycon Plaza III and certain development rights and approvals related to Tycon Plaza II for $67.5 million with a gain on the sale of $32.1 million. Proceeds of $31.3 million were escrowed in a tax-free property exchange account and subsequently used to fund a portion of the purchase price of Frederick Crossing Shopping Center on March 23, 2005 and the Coleman Building on April 8, 2005. The remaining $31.0 million of the proceeds were used to pay down $31.0 million outstanding under Credit Facility No. 2. On November 15, 2004, we sold 8230 Boone Boulevard for a sale price of $10.0 million. A portion of the proceeds was in the form of a subordinated $1.8 million 10% note receivable from the seller, which matured in November 2005. We recognized a gain on disposal of $1.0 million gain at the time of sale, and offset the $1.8 million note from the buyer with a deferred gain liability in the same amount, in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 66, “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate.” SFAS 66 limits gain recognition when the seller’s note is subject to future subordination to the amount by which the buyer’s cash payments at settlement exceed the seller’s cost of the property sold. The deferred gain was recognized in April 2005. In November 2004 we classified 7700 Leesburg, Tycon Plaza II, Tycon Plaza III and certain development rights and approvals related to Tycon Plaza III as held for sale as specified by SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” 0 Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries Operating results of the properties classified as discontinued operations are summarized as follows (in thousands): Revenues Property expenses 2005 $656 2004 $8,895 (401) (3,217) Depreciation and amortization (71) (1,784) $184 $3,894 Net operations of properties sold or held for sale decreased $0.2 million for 2006 compared to 2005 and $3.7 million for 2005 compared to 2004. The decrease from 2005 to 2006 was because there were no property sales in 2006 and the decrease in 2005 from 2004 was due primarily to the number and timing of the property sales within each year. Net Operating Income Real estate Net Operating Income (“NOI”), defined as real estate rental revenue less real estate operating expenses, is the primary performance measure we use to assess the results of our operations at the property level. We provide NOI as a supplement to net income calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). NOI does not represent net income calculated in accordance with GAAP. As such, it should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our operating performance. NOI is calculated as net income, less non-real estate (“other”) revenue and the results of discontinued operations (including the gain on sale, if any), plus interest expense, depreciation and amortization and general and administrative expenses. A reconciliation of NOI to net income is provided on the following page.

Acquired properties contributed $20.1 million in NOI in 2006 (13.2% of total NOI), a $14.6 million increase over 2005.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries Core properties experienced a $5.9 million (4.7%) increase in NOI due to an $8.3 million increase in revenues offset by a $2.5 million increase in real estate expenses. Revenue was positively impacted by improvements in all lines of business due to rental rate growth across the portfolio (3.4%) and higher core occupancy in the office, retail and medical office sectors. The increase in core expenses was driven by the office, retail and multifamily sectors, which contributed $1.7, $0.4 and $0.4 million, respectively, in additional expense as a result of higher utilities, repairs and maintenance, operating services, and real estate taxes. Overall economic occupancy increased from 92.3% in 2005 to 93.7% in 2006 due to higher core occupancy in the office and retail sectors and higher occupancy in our acquired office and medical office properties. Core economic occupancy increased 170 basis points due to a 400 basis point increase in the office sector and a 180 basis point increase in the retail sector offset somewhat by a 130 basis point decrease in the industrial sector and an 80 basis point decrease in the multifamily sector. During 2006, 78.0% of the commercial square footage expiring was renewed as compared to 70.2% in 2005 and 1,611,000 commercial square feet were leased at an average rental rate increase of 12.8% An analysis of NOI by sector follows.

Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  Core office properties achieved a $2.4 million (4.7%) increase in NOI due to a $4.1 million increase in revenues offset somewhat by a $1.7 million increase in core real estate expenses. Core revenue was higher due to the 400 basis point increase in occupancy ($3.1 million) led by occupancy gains at Maryland Trade Center I and II, 1600 Wilson Boulevard, 1700 Research Boulevard, 600 Jefferson Plaza and 7900 Westpark, and rental rate increases ($1.7 million). This increase was offset somewhat by an increase in bad debt reserves ($0.3 million) and rent abatements ($0.3 million). The increase in real estate expenses was due to higher utility costs driven by escalating fuel rates, consumption and energy taxes, real estate tax expense that increased due to higher value assessments for properties across several tax jurisdictions and increased custodial costs associated with the increase in occupancy. During 2006, 71.4% of the square footage that expired was renewed compared to 65.1% in 2005, excluding properties sold or classified as held for sale. During 2006, we executed new leases for 597,000 square feet of office space at an average rent increase of 9.1%.

This was substantially due to the acquisitions made in 2006 which contributed $4.1 million to the NOI and added approximately 336,000 net rentable square feet to the portfolio. Core medical office property NOI was flat. Revenues for core properties were positively impacted by a 40 basis point increase in occupancy and a 0.6% increase in rental rates. Expenses increased due to higher repair and maintenance costs. During 2006, 87.7% of the square footage that expired was renewed compared to 74.7% in 2005. During 2006, we executed new leases for 119,900 square feet of medical office space at an average rent increase of 19.9%.

The core revenue increase was due to rental rate growth of 8.5% driven by the Harris Teeter lease at Shoppes at Foxchase and escalating market rates at other centers and a 180 basis point increase in occupancy across most of the remaining portfolio. Overall economic occupancy for the retail sector decreased approximately 160 basis points primarily as a result of the acquisitions of the Montrose and Randolph shopping centers which were 58% and 91% leased, respectively, at the time of their acquisition. During 2006, our retention rate was 90.8% compared to 95.3% in 2005 and we executed new leases for approximately 123,000 square feet of retail space at an average rent increase of 20.8%.

The revenue increase was driven by an increase in minimum base rent throughout the portfolio ($2.0 million), offset somewhat by the 80 basis point decrease in occupancy ($0.4 million) compared to 2005 due to units at two properties that were taken off-line for renovation and the move out of a block of 28 units leased by one individual. Real estate expenses increased $0.4 million due primarily to higher repairs and maintenance costs, higher administrative costs related to property-level leasing and maintenance positions and increased marketing costs, and increased utility expense related to higher fuel costs.

These acquisitions contributed $6.0 million in NOI, 20.3% of the total NOI. Core properties achieved a $0.3 million (1.4%) increase in NOI due to a $0.2 million increase in real estate revenues, while real estate expenses decreased $0.1 million. The revenue increase was driven by a 2.6% increase in rental rates offset somewhat by a 130 basis point decrease in occupancy primarily due to vacancies at Sully Square. During 2006 our retention rate was 79.3% compared to 65.0% in 2005 and we executed new leases for approximately 770,000 square feet of industrial space at an average rent increase of 14.3%.

Acquired properties contributed $12.4 million in NOI in 2005 (9.4% of total NOI), a $10.8 million increase over 2004. Rental operations at 718 Jefferson Street ceased in the third quarter of 2004 as the property was incorporated into the Clayborne Apartments development project.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries Core properties experienced a $0.8 million (0.7%) increase in NOI due to a $4.4 million increase in revenues offset by a $3.5 million increase in real estate expenses. Revenue was positively impacted by improvements in all lines of business except the office sector due to lower occupancy and reduced rental rates. Higher occupancy and rental rate increases in the industrial, medical office, retail and multifamily sectors and higher expense recoveries in the retail and industrial sectors positively impacted those respective lines of business. The increase in core expenses was driven by the industrial, office and multifamily sectors, which contributed $0.5, $1.2 and $1.2 million, respectively, in additional expense as a result of higher utilities, repairs and maintenance, operating services, and real estate taxes. Overall economic occupancy increased from 91.4% in 2004 to 92.4% in 2005 due to higher core occupancy, higher occupancy in our acquired office property and 100% occupancy in our acquired retail property. Core economic occupancy increased 50 basis points due to increases in every sector except the office sector. During 2005, 70.2% of the square footage expiring was renewed as compared to 65.9% in 2004 and 1,720,000 square feet were leased at an average rental rate increase of 8.7%.

The property acquired in 2005 contributed $0.7 million (1.3% of total) to NOI. Core office properties experienced a $2.2 million (4.2%) decrease in NOI due to a $1.0 million decline in revenues combined with a $1.2 million increase in core real estate expenses. Revenue was impacted by lower minimum base Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  rent of $0.6 million due primarily to higher vacancies and a decrease in rental rates, higher bad debt expense of $0.3 million and lower lease termination fee income of $0.1 million. The increase in real estate expenses was due to higher utility costs driven by escalating fuel rates and energy taxes, additional real estate tax expense due to higher value assessments for properties across several tax jurisdictions and increased repairs and maintenance costs. Core economic occupancy declined 110 basis points due to vacancies at Maryland Trade Center I, 6110 Executive Boulevard, Saratoga, Lexington, and 515 King Street. Overall economic occupancy decreased from 89.2% to 88.1%. During 2005, 65.1% of the square footage that expired was renewed compared to 50.5% in 2004, excluding properties sold or classified as held for sale. During 2005, we executed new leases for 711,700 square feet of office space at an average rent increase of 3.8%.

This was substantially due to the acquisitions made in 2004 which contributed $2.3 million to the NOI and added approximately 116,000 net rentable square feet to the portfolio. Core medical office property NOI increased $0.5 million with a $0.8 million revenue increase offset somewhat by a $0.3 million increase in real estate expenses. Revenues for core properties were positively impacted by increased occupancy and rental rates as well as increased expense reimbursements from tenants. Expenses increased due to higher utility costs and real estate taxes. Core occupancy increased 90 basis points as vacancies decreased at Woodburn II. During 2005, 74.7% of the square footage that expired was renewed compared to 100% in 2004. During 2005, we executed new leases for 40,000 square feet of medical office space at an average rent increase of 11.2%. 0 Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries Retail Sector Real estate Rental Revenue Core Non-core(1) Total Real Estate Rental Revenue Real estate expenses Core Non-core(1) Total Real Estate Expenses Net Operating Income Core Non-core(1) Total Net Operating Income Economic Occupancy Core Non-core(1) Total (1) Non-core properties include: 2005 acquisition—Frederick Crossing 2005 $28,425 3,482 $31,907 $ 6,296 582 $ 6,878 $22,129 2,900 $25,029 2005 97.3% 100.0% 97.6% Years Ended December 31, 2004 $ Change % Change $ 1,182 3,482 $ 4,664 $ 397 582 $ 979 $ 785 2,900 $ 3,685 4.3% 100.0% 17.1% 6.7% 100.0% 16.6% 3.7% 100.0% 17.3% $27,243 — $27,243 $ 5,899 — $ 5,899 $21,344 — $21,344 2004 94.8% — 94.8% Retail sector NOI increased $3.7 million (17.3%) in 2005 due to the 2005 acquisition which contributed $2.9 million to NOI and a $0.8 million increase in NOI from core properties. The acquisition NOI was $2.9 million (11.6%) of the total. The core revenue increase was due to rental rate growth of 1.5% driven by escalating market rates, higher common area maintenance and higher occupancy. Rental operations at 718 Jefferson Street ceased in the third quarter of 2004 as the property was incorporated into the Clayborne Apartments development project. Overall economic occupancy for the retail sector increased approximately 280 basis points primarily as a result of the completion of the renovation at Westminster where a national grocery store chain took possession in November 2004. During 2005, our retention rate was 95.3% compared to 77.4% in 2004 and we executed new leases for 180,700 square feet of retail space at an average rent increase of 28.6%.

The revenue increase was driven by an increase in minimum base rent and increases in occupancy throughout most of the portfolio. Occupancy for the overall portfolio increased 270 basis points compared to 2004. Revenue was additionally impacted by increased rent abatements, the result of efforts to improve leasing activity across the portfolio. Real estate expenses increased $1.2 million due primarily to higher administrative costs related to property-level leasing and maintenance positions and increased marketing costs, higher repairs and maintenance expense and increased utility expense related to higher fuel costs.

These acquisitions contributed $6.6 million in NOI, 26.1% of the total NOI. Core properties experienced a $1.3 million (7.3%) increase in NOI due to a $1.8 million increase in real estate revenues, while real estate expenses increased only $0.5 million. The revenue increase was driven by a 60 basis point growth in occupancy due to increased leasing activity, particularly at Ammendale Technology Park II, Earhart and Northern Virginia Industrial Park. Revenue was also positively impacted by higher lease termination fees and reimbursements for common area maintenance and real estate taxes ($0.5 million combined) and a 4.4% increase in rental rates. We executed new leases for 787,500 square feet of industrial space at an average rent increase of 12.2%. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL ReSOURCeS Capital Structure We manage our capital structure to reflect a long-term investment approach, generally seeking to match the cash flow of our assets with a mix of equity and various debt instruments. We expect that our capital structure will allow us to obtain additional capital from diverse sources that could include additional equity offerings of common shares, public and private debt financings and possible asset dispositions. Our ability to raise funds through the sale of debt and equity securities is dependent on, among other things, general economic conditions, general market conditions for REITs, our operating performance, our debt rating and the current trading price of our shares. We will always analyze which source of capital is most advantageous to us at any particular point in time; however the capital markets may not consistently be available on terms that we consider attractive. We currently expect that our principal sources of liquidity for acquisitions, development, expansion and renovation of properties, plus operating and administrative will include: • Cash flow from operations; • Borrowings under our unsecured credit facilities; • Proceeds for unsecured note issuances and equity offerings; and • Net proceeds from the sale of assets. During 2007, we expect that we will have significant capital requirements, including the following items. There can be no assurance that our capital requirements will not be materially higher or lower than these expectations. • Funding dividends on our common shares and minority interest distributions to third party unit holders; • Approximately $44.0 million to invest in our existing portfolio of operating assets, including approximately $16.0 million to fund tenant-related capital requirements and leasing commissions; • Approximately $64.0 million to invest in our development projects; • Approximately $150.0 million to fund our expected property acquisitions; We believe that we will generate sufficient cash flow from operations and have access to the capital resources necessary to fund our requirements. However, as a result of general, greater Washington metro region, or tenant economic downturns, unfavorable fluctuations in interest rates or our share price, unfavorable changes in the supply of competing properties, or our properties not performing as expected, we may not generate sufficient cash flow from operations or otherwise have access to capital on favorable terms, or at all. If we are unable to obtain capital from other sources, we may not be able to pay the dividend required to maintain our status as a REIT, make required principal and interest payments, make strategic acquisitions or make necessary routine capital improvements or undertake re-development opportunities with respect to our existing portfolio of operating assets. In addition, if a property is mortgaged to secure payment of indebtedness and we are unable to meet mortgage payments, the holder of the mortgage could foreclose on the property, resulting in loss of income and asset value. Debt Financing We generally use unsecured, corporate-level debt, including unsecured notes and our unsecured credit facilities, to meet our borrowing needs. Long-term, we generally use fixed rate debt instruments in order to match the returns from our real estate assets. We also utilize variable rate debt for short-term financing purposes. At times, our mix of variable and fixed rate debt may not suit our needs. At those times, we may use derivative financial instruments including interest rate swaps and caps, forward interest rate options or interest rate options in order to assist us in  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries managing our debt mix. We would either hedge our variable rate debt to give it a fixed interest rate or hedge fixed rate debt to give it a variable interest rate. At December 31, 2006, there were no derivative securities outstanding. Typically we have obtained the ratings of two credit rating agencies in the underwriting of our unsecured debt. As of December 31, 2006, Standard & Poors had assigned its A- rating with a negative outlook, and Moody’s Investor Service has assigned its Baa1 rating with a stable outlook, to our unsecured debt offerings. A downgrade in rating by either of these rating agencies could result from, among other things, a change in our financial position, or a downturn in general economic condition. Any such downgrade could adversely affect our ability to obtain future financing or could increase the interest rates on our existing variable rate debt. However, we have no debt instruments under which the principal maturity would be accelerated upon a downward change in our debt rating. Each rating is subject to revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating organization. Our total debt at December 31, 2006 is summarized as follows (in thousands): Fixed rate mortgages Unsecured credit facilities Senior unsecured notes Mortgage Debt Total Debt $ 237,073 61,000 730,000 $1,028,073 At December 31, 2006, our $237.1 million in fixed rate mortgages, which includes $3.1 million in unamortized premiums due to fair value adjustments, bore an effective weighted average interest rate of 5.9% and had a weighted average maturity of 5.3 years. We generally do not initiate secured mortgage debt, but will assume mortgage debt from time-to-time in conjunction with property acquisitions. Unsecured Credit Facilities Our primary source of liquidity is our two revolving credit facilities. We can borrow up to $270.0 million under these lines, which bear interest at an adjustable spread over LIBOR based on our public debt rating. Credit Facility No. 1 is a three-year, $70.0 million unsecured credit facility expiring in July 2008. We had $28.0 outstanding as of December 31, 2006 related to Credit Facility No. 1, $1.9 million in letters of credit issued and $40.1 million unused and available. Credit Facility No. 2 is a four-year $200.0 million unsecured credit facility expiring in November 2010, with a one year extension option. This facility replaces the previous $85 million credit facility. We had $33.0 million outstanding as of December 31, 2006, related to Credit Facility No. 2, as a result of borrowings for development and capital improvements. Our unsecured credit facilities contain financial and other covenants with which we must comply. Some of these covenants include: • A minimum ratio of annual EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) to interest expense; • A minimum ratio of tangible fair market value of our unencumbered assets to aggregate unsecured debt; and • A maximum ratio of total debt to tangible fair market value of our assets. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  Failure to comply with any of the covenants under our unsecured credit facilities or other debt instruments could result in a default under one or more of our debt instruments. This could cause our lenders to accelerate the timing of payments and would therefore have a material adverse effect on our business, operations, financial condition and liquidity. As of December 31, 2006, we were in compliance with our loan covenants; however, our ability to draw on our unsecured credit facility or incur other unsecured debt in the future could be restricted by the loan covenants. If principal amounts due at maturity cannot be refinanced, extended or paid with proceeds of other capital transactions, such as new equity capital, our cash flow may be insufficient to repay all maturing debt. Prevailing interest rates or other factors at the time of a refinancing (such as possible reluctance of lenders to make commercial real estate loans) may result in higher interest rates and increased interest expense. Senior Unsecured Notes We generally issue senior unsecured notes to fund our real estate assets long-term. We intend to ladder the maturities of our debt to mitigate exposure to interest rate risk in future years. We anticipate that over the near term, interest rate fluctuations will not have a material adverse effect on earnings. Our unsecured fixed-rate notes payable have maturities ranging from February 2008 through February 2028 (see Note 6), as follows (in thousands): 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 Thereafter December 31, 2006 Note Principal $ — 60,000 — — 150,000 520,000 $730,000 Our unsecured notes contain covenants with which we must comply. These include: • Limits on our total indebtedness; • Limits on our secured indebtedness; • Limits on our required debt service payments; and • Maintenance of a minimum level of unencumbered assets. We are in compliance with our unsecured notes covenants as of December 31, 2006. Common equity We have authorized for issuance 45 million common shares, of which 42.1 million shares were outstanding at December 31, 2006. In June 2006, we completed a public offering of 2.745 million common shares of beneficial interest which provided net cash of $90.9 million. We used the proceeds to repay borrowings on our lines of credit.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries Dividends We pay dividends quarterly. The maintenance of these dividends is subject to various factors, including the discretion of the Board of Trustees, the ability to pay dividends under Maryland law, the availability of cash to make the necessary dividend payments and the effect of REIT distribution requirements, which require at least 90% of our taxable income to be distributed to shareholders. The table below details our dividend and distribution payments for 2006, 2005 and 2004 (in thousands). Common dividends 2006 2005 $72,681 $67,322 $64,836 2004 Minority interest distributions 134 131 127 $72,815 $67,453 $64,963 Dividends paid for 2006 as compared to 2005 increased as a direct result of a dividend rate increase from $1.60 per share in 2005 to $1.64 per share in 2006 as well as the issuance of 2,745,000 shares in an equity offering in June 2006. Dividends paid in 2005 increased as compared to 2004 due to the dividend rate increase to $1.60 per share from $1.55 per share. Cash flows from operations are an important factor in our ability to sustain our dividend at its current rate. Cash flows from operations decreased from $87.5 million in 2005 to $85.2 million in 2006 due in part to an increase in other assets for the acquisitions completed in 2006. If our cash flows from operations were to decline significantly, we may have to borrow on our lines of credit to sustain the dividend rate or reduce the dividend payout rate. Capital Commitments We will require capital for development and redevelopment projects currently underway and in the future. As of December 31, 2006, we had under development Bennett Park, Clayborne Apartments and Dulles Station. Our total investment in Bennett Park is expected to be $76.6 million and we expect to fund $32.0 million during 2007; a construction contract worth approximately $55.7 million has been executed for this project. As of December 31, 2006, we had invested $44.7 million in Bennett Park including land costs. Our total investment in Clayborne Apartments is expected to be $32.7 million. As of December 31, 2006, we had invested $18.0 million in this project, and we expect to fund approximately $14.7 million of the total project costs during 2007. There is a $14.7 million construction contract in place for the project’s completion. Our investment in phase one of Dulles Station is expected to be $59.2 million. As of December 31, 2006, we had invested $51.5 million in this project, including $26.2 million to acquire the land for both phases, and we expect to fund approximately $33.9 million of the total project costs during 2007. As of December 31, 2006, the redevelopment of the Shoppes at Foxchase was substantially complete after an investment of $11.2 million. We expect to fund the remaining project cost of approximately $0.6 million in 2007. In addition, we anticipate funding several major renovation projects in our portfolios during 2007, as follows (in thousands): Sector Office buildings Medical office buildings Retail centers Multifamily Industrial Total Project Spending $ 5,179 390 1,117 9,462 1,493 $17,641 Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  These projects include common area and unit renovations at several of our multifamily properties, roof replacement projects at some of our industrial and retail properties, and restroom, façade and common area renovations at some of our office properties. Not all of the anticipated spending had been committed via executed construction contracts at December 31, 2006. We expect to meet our requirements using cash generated by our real estate operations, through borrowings on our unsecured credit facilities, or raising additional debt or equity capital in the public market. Contractual Obligations Below is a summary of certain contractual obligations that will require significant capital (in thousands): Long-term debt(1) Purchase obligations(2) Estimated development commitments(3) Tenant-related capital(4) Building capital(5) Operating leases Payments due by Period Total $1,712,551 9,142 52,161 3,111 11,729 71 Less than 1 year $70,735 3,339 52,161 2,890 8,738 34 1–3 years $365,395 3,635 — 32 2,991 37 4–5 years $316,279 728 — 110 — — After 5 years $960,142 1,440 — 79 — — (1) See Notes 4, 5 and 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Amounts include principal, interest, unused commitment fees and facility fees. (2) Represents elevator maintenance contracts with terms through 2016, electricity sales agreements with terms through 2008, and natural gas purchase agreements with terms through 2007. (3) Committed development obligations based on contracts in place as of December 31, 2006. (4) Committed tenant-related capital based on executed leases as of December 31, 2006. (5) Committed building capital additions based on contracts in place as of December 31, 2006. We have various standing or renewable contracts with vendors. The majority of these contracts are cancelable with immaterial or no cancellation penalties, with the exception of our elevator maintenance and natural gas purchase agreements, which are included above on the purchase obligations line. Contract terms on cancelable leases are generally one year or less. Development commitments include executed construction and professional services contracts associated with our Bennett Park, Clayborne Apartments, Dulles Station and Shoppes at Foxchase projects. We are currently committed to fund tenant-related capital improvements as described in the table above for executed leases. However, expected leasing levels could require additional tenant-related capital improvements which are not currently committed. We expect that total tenant-related capital improvements, including those already committed, will be approximately $18.9 million in 2007. Due to the competitive office leasing market we expect that tenant- related capital costs will continue at this level into 2008.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries Historical Cash Flows Consolidated cash flow information is summarized as follows (in millions): For the year ended December 31, Variance Cash provided by operating activities Cash used in investing activities Cash provided by financing activities 2006 $ 86.3 $(334.7) $ 252.1 2005 $ 87.5 $(98.5) $ 10.9 2004 $ 79.8 $(80.4) $ 0.9 2006 vs 2005 $ (1.2) $(236.2) $ 241.2 2005 vs 2004 $ 7.7 $(18.1) $ 10.0 Operations generated $86.3 million of net cash in 2006 compared to $87.5 million in 2005. The decrease in cash flow in 2006 compared to 2005 was due primarily to changes in rents and other assets from properties acquired in 2005 and 2006. The level of net cash provided by operating activities is also affected by the timing of receipt of revenues and payment of expenses. Our investing activities used net cash of $334.7 million in 2006 and $98.5 million in 2005. The change in cash flows from investing activities in 2006 was primarily due to the $226.5 million of cash invested in acquisitions, net of assumed debt, throughout the year, which was $103.2 million higher than the prior year and development spending of $68.6 million which was $50.8 million higher than the prior year, property disposals in 2005 that provided $73.9 million of net cash proceeds in the prior year and increased spending on capital improvements of $7.1 million. Our financing activities provided net cash of $252.1 million in 2006 and $10.9 million in 2005. The increase in net cash provided by financing activities in 2006 is the result of the debt offerings in June, July and September which provided $255.1 million and the equity offering in June which provided $90.9 million. Borrowings on the lines of credit provided $37.0 million, offset somewhat by the note repayments of $50.0 million, payment of dividends of $72.7 million and mortgage principal payments of $9.1 million. Dividends increased in 2006 due to the issuance of 2,745,000 shares in June and an increase in the dividend rate. CAPITAL IMPROVeMeNTS AND DeVeLOPMeNT COSTS Capital improvements and development costs of $106.4 million were completed in 2006, including tenant improvements. These improvements to our properties in 2005 and 2004 were $48.6 million and $33.2 million, respectively. We consider capital improvements to be accretive to revenue and not necessarily to net income. Our capital improvement and development costs for the three years ending December 31, 2006 were as follows (in thousands): Accretive capital improvements: Acquisition related Expansions and major renovations Development/redevelopment Tenant improvements Total accretive capital improvements Other: Total 2006 $ 1,430 18,195 68,621 9,473 97,719 8,685 $106,404 Year Ended December 31, 2005 $ 918 11,762 17,866 8,932 39,478 9,125 $48,603 2004 $ 212 6,446 8,079 9,432 24,169 9,068 $33,237 Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  Accretive Capital Improvements Acquisition Related—These are capital improvements to properties acquired during the current and preceding two years which were anticipated at the time we acquired the properties. These types of improvements were made in 2006 to Albemarle Point, Montrose, Randolph, Dulles Business Park, Alexandria Professional, Hampton Overlook and Hampton South. Expansions and Major Renovations—Expansion projects increase the rentable area of a property, while major renovation projects are improvements sufficient to increase the income otherwise achievable at a property. 2006 expansions and major renovations included common area and unit renovations for Bethesda Hill, Munson Hill, Park Adams and Country Club Towers; façade renovation at Wayne Plaza; lobby renovations at Maryland Trade Centers I and II; and roof replacements at Ammendale Park, Tech 100 and Northern Virginia Industrial Park. Development/Re-development—Development costs represent expenditures for ground up development of new operating properties. Re-development costs represent expenditures for improvements intended to re-position properties in their markets and increase income that would be otherwise achievable. Development costs in each of the years presented include costs associated with the ground up development of Bennett Park and Clayborne. In 2006 these costs also include expenditures associated with Dulles Station. Completion of Bennett Park, our residential project under development in Arlington, VA, is expected in the second quarter 2007 for the mid-rise building and third quarter 2007 for the high-rise building. Completion of Clayborne Apartments, our residential project under construction in Alexandria, VA, is also expected in the third quarter 2007. Completion of Phase I of Dulles Station, our 540,000 square foot office project in Herndon, VA, of which Phase I represents 180,000 square feet, is expected in the third quarter of 2007. Re-development costs in each of the years presented were incurred for the Shoppes at Foxchase, which was substantially completed in 2006. In 2004 and 2005, re-development costs included expenditures for the completion of the Food Lion grocery store at Westminster. Tenant Improvements—Tenant Improvements are costs, such as space build-out, associated with commercial lease transactions. Our average Tenant Improvement Costs per square foot of space leased were as follows during the three years ended December 31, 2006: Office Buildings* Year Ended December 31, 2005 $10.42 2006 $11.52 2004 $7.13 Medical Office Buildings $17.78 $ 7.65 Retail Centers $ 0.05 $ 0.85 Industrial/Flex Properties* $ 1.84 $ 1.44 $9.35 $0.90 $1.01 *Excludes properties sold or classified as held for sale. The $1.10 increase in tenant improvement costs per square foot of space leased for office buildings in 2006 was primarily due to leases executed at 7900 Westpark requiring $2.7 million in tenant improvements, including $1.5 million for a single tenant. The $10.13 increase in tenant improvement costs per square foot of space leased for medical office buildings in 2006 was primarily due to leases executed at 15001 Shady Grove and Woodburn I requiring $1.8 million in tenant improvements, primarily to a single tenant. The retail and industrial tenant improvement costs are substantially lower than office and medical office improvement costs due to the tenant improvements required in these property types being substantially less extensive than in office and medical. Excluding properties sold or classified as held for sale, approximately 71% of our office tenants renewed their leases with us in 2006, 0 Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries compared to 65% in 2005 and 50% in 2004. Renewing tenants generally require minimal tenant improvements. In addition, lower tenant improvement costs are one of the many benefits of our focus on leasing to smaller office tenants. Smaller office suites have limited configuration alternatives. Therefore, we are often able to lease an existing suite with limited tenant improvements. Other Capital Improvements Other Capital Improvements are those not included in the above categories. These are also referred to as recurring capital improvements. Over time these costs will be recurring in nature to maintain a property’s income and value. In our residential properties, these include new appliances, flooring, cabinets and bathroom fixtures. These improvements, which are made as needed upon vacancy of an apartment, totaled $0.6 million in 2006, and averaged $925 per apartment for the 32% of apartments turned over relative to our total portfolio of apartment units. In our commercial properties and residential properties aside from apartment turnover discussed above, these include installation of new heating and air conditioning equipment, asphalt replacement, new signage, permanent landscaping, window replacements, new lighting and new finishes. In addition, during 2006, we incurred repair and maintenance expenses of $8.2 million that were not capitalized, to maintain the quality of our buildings. FORWARD-LOOKINg STATeMeNTS This Annual Report contains forward-looking statements which involve risks and uncertainties. Such forward looking statements include the following statements with respect to the metropolitan Washington real estate markets: (a) continued spending by the Federal Government, government contracting firms and professional services firms is expected to continue to drive regional economic growth; (b) industrial rental rates are projected to increase; (c) the Washington metro area is expected to be a strong multifamily market; and (d) office vacancy is expected to increase due to increased supply in the market.

Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries 1 RATIOS OF eARNINgS TO FIXeD CHARgeS AND DeBT SeRVICe COVeRAge The following table sets forth our ratios of earnings to fixed charges and debt service coverage for the periods shown: Earnings to fixed charges Year Ended December 31, 2005 2.01x 2004 2.13x 2006 1.68x Debt service coverage 2.76x 3.05x 3.29x We computed the ratio of earnings to fixed charges by dividing earnings by fixed charges. For this purpose, earnings consist of income from continuing operations plus fixed charges, less capitalized interest. Fixed charges consist of interest expense, including amortized costs of debt issuance, plus interest costs capitalized. We computed the debt service coverage ratio by dividing EBITDA (which is earnings before interest income and expense, taxes, depreciation, amortization and gain on sale of real estate) by interest expense and principal amortization. Funds from Operations Funds from Operations (“FFO”) is a widely used measure of operating performance for real estate companies. We provide FFO as a supplemental measure to net income calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Although FFO is a widely used measure of operating performance for REITs, FFO does not represent net income calculated in accordance with GAAP. As such, it should not be considered an alternative to net income as an indication of our operating performance. In addition, FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP, nor does it represent cash available to pay distributions and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flow from operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP as a measure of our liquidity. The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”) defines FFO (April, 2002 White Paper) as net income (computed in accordance with GAAP) excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property plus real estate depreciation and amortization. We consider FFO to be a standard supplemental measure for REITs because it facilitates an understanding of the operating performance of our properties without giving effect to real estate depreciation and amortization, which historically assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have instead historically risen or fallen with market conditions, we believe that FFO more accurately provides investors an indication of our ability to incur and service debt, make capital expenditures and fund other needs. Our FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs. These other REITs may not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently. The following table provides the calculation of our FFO and a reconciliation of FFO to net income for the years presented (in thousands): Net income Adjustments Depreciation and amortization Gain on property disposed Discontinued operations depreciation and amortization FFO as defined by NAREIT 2006 $38,661 54,170 — — $92,831 2005 $77,638 47,161 (37,515) 71 $87,355 2004 $45,564 39,309 (1,029) 1,784 $85,628  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries ITeM 7A. QUALITATIVe AND QUANTITATIVe DISCLOSUReS ABOUT MARKeT RISK The principal material financial market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk. Our exposure to interest rate risk relates primarily to refinancing long-term fixed rate obligations, the opportunity cost of fixed rate obligations in a falling interest rate environment and our variable rate lines of credit. We primarily enter into debt obligations to support general corporate purposes including acquisition of real estate properties, capital improvements and working capital needs. In the past we have used interest rate hedge agreements to hedge against rising interest rates in anticipation of imminent refinancing or new debt issuance. The table below presents principal, interest and related weighted average fair value interest rates by year of maturity, with respect to debt outstanding on December 31, 2006.

CHANgeS IN AND DISAgReeMeNTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTINg AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURe None. ITeM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCeDUReS We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Securities Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President of Accounting, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President of Accounting, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2006. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Senior Vice President of Accounting concluded that the Trust’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective. Internal Control over Financial Reporting See the Report of Management in Item 8 of this Form 10-K. See the Reports of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm in Item 8 of this Form 10-K. During the three months ended December 31, 2006, there was no change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control for financial reporting.

The Trust’s internal control system over financial reporting is a process designed under the supervision of the Trust’s principal executive and principal financial officers to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions. In connection with the preparation of the Trust’s annual consolidated financial statements, management has undertaken an assessment of the effectiveness of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO Framework). Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of those controls. Based on this assessment, management has concluded that as of December 31, 2006, the Trust’s internal control over financial reporting was effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Ernst & Young LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the Trust’s consolidated financial statements included in this report, have issued an attestation report on management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting, a copy of which appears on the next page of this annual report.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries RePORT OF INDePeNDeNT RegISTeReD PUBLIC ACCOUNTINg FIRM ON INTeRNAL CONTROL OVeR FINANCIAL RePORTINg To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Washington Real estate Investment Trust We have audited management’s assessment, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, that Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO criteria). Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries’ management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assessment and an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, evaluating management’s assessment, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. In our opinion, management’s assessment that Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, is fairly stated, in all material respects, based on the COSO criteria. Also, in our opinion, Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on the COSO criteria. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheets of Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of income, changes in shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006 of Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries and our report dated February 26, 2007 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon. McLean, Virginia February 26, 2007 RePORT OF INDePeNDeNT RegISTeReD PUBLIC ACCOUNTINg FIRM To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Washington Real estate Investment Trust We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the related consolidated statements of income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006. Our audits also included the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15(a). These financial statements and schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries at December 31, 2006 and 2005, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2006, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly in all material respects the information set forth therein. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, in 2006 the Company changed its accounting for stock-based compensation in connection with the adoption of FASB Statement No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment.” We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the effectiveness of Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2006, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated February 26, 2007 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries NOTeS TO CONSOLIDATeD FINANCIAL STATeMeNTS for the years ended december 1, 00, 00 and 00 1. Nature of Business: Washington Real Estate Investment Trust (“WRIT,” the “Company” or the “Trust”), a Maryland real estate investment trust, is a self-administered, self-managed equity real estate investment trust, successor to a trust organized in 1960. Our business consists of the ownership of income-producing real estate properties in the greater Washington metropolitan region. We own a diversified portfolio of office buildings, medical office buildings, industrial/flex properties, multifamily buildings and retail centers. Federal Income Taxes We believe that we qualify as a Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) under Sections 856-860 of the Internal Revenue Code and intend to continue to qualify as such. To maintain our status as a REIT, we are required to distribute 90% of our ordinary taxable income to our shareholders. When selling properties, we have the option of (i) reinvesting the sale price of properties sold, allowing for a deferral of income taxes on the sale, (ii) paying out capital gains to the shareholders with no tax to the company or (iii) treating the capital gains as having been distributed to the shareholders, paying the tax on the gain deemed distributed and allocating the tax paid as a credit to the shareholders. We distributed 100% of our 2006, 2005 and 2004 ordinary taxable income to our shareholders. $33.5 million of the gains from property disposed in 2005 was reinvested in replacement properties. Approximately $3.5 million of gains from disposed property in 2005 was distributed to shareholders. The gain on the property sold during 2004 was paid out to the shareholders. No provision for income taxes was necessary in 2006, 2005 or 2004. The following is a breakdown of the taxable percentage of our dividends for 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively: 2006 2005 2004 Ordinary Income 84% 81% 86% Return of Capital 16% 14% 10% Unrecaptured Section 1250 Gain 0% 5% 2% Capital Gain 0% 0% 2% 2. Accounting Policies: Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Trust and its majority owned subsidiaries, after eliminating all intercompany transactions. New Accounting Pronouncements In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123R, “Share-Based Payment” (SFAS No. 123R). This statement is a revision of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and supersedes APB opinion No. 25 (APB No. 25), “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees” and amends SFAS No. 95, “Statement of Cash Flows.” SFAS No. 123R addresses the accounting for share-based payment transactions in which an enterprise receives employee services in exchange for (a) equity instruments of the enterprise or (b) liabilities that are based on the fair value of the enterprise’s equity instruments or that may be settled by the issuance of such equity instruments. SFAS No. 123R Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  requires all share-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options, to be recognized in the financial statements based on their fair values and eliminates the intrinsic value method of accounting in APB No. 25, which was permitted under SFAS No. 123, as originally issued. The Company was required to apply the provisions of this statement as of January 1, 2006. Since we used the fair-value-based method of accounting under the original provisions of SFAS No. 123, in pro forma disclosure, we were required to adopt the provisions of the new standard using either the modified-prospective- transition or the modified-retrospective-transition method. Under both methods, for awards granted, settled or modified subsequent to adopting the standard and for awards granted prior to the date of adoption for which the requisite service has not been completed as of the adoption date, compensation cost must be recognized in the financial statements. Under the modified retrospective method, financial statements for prior periods are restated for this change and under the modified prospective method only statements subsequent to adoption will include this compensation cost. The modified prospective method also requires a cumulative adjustment in the first period of adoption to conform to the new standard. The Company has adopted SFAS No. 123R using the modified prospective transition method and that adoption did not have a material impact on income from continuing operations, net income, cash flows from operations or financing activities, or basic and diluted EPS. In July 2006, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” an interpretation of FAS 109, “Accounting for Income Taxes” (FIN 48), to create a single model to address accounting for uncertainty in tax positions. FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes, by prescribing a minimum recognition threshold a tax position is required to meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, measurement, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. FIN 48 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. WRIT will adopt FIN 48 as of January 1, 2007, as required. We do not expect that the adoption of FIN 48 will have a material impact on our financial position and results of operations. In September 2006, the FASB also issued FASB Statement No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements.” SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The effective date of this statement is for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and according all the provisions of SFAS No. 157 will be considered when we adopt it in January 2008. In September 2006, the FASB issued FASB Statement No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 106, and 132(R)” (SFAS No. 158). SFAS No. 158 requires plan sponsors of defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans (collectively, “postretirement benefit plans”) to recognize the funded status of their postretirement benefit plans in the statement of financial position, measure the fair value of plan assets and benefit obligation as of the date of the fiscal year-end statement of financial position, and provide additional disclosures. On December 31, 2006, the Company adopted the recognition and disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 158. SFAS No. 158 did not have an effect on the Company’s consolidated financial condition as of December 31, 2006. SFAS No. 158’s provisions regarding the change in the measurement date of postretirement benefit plans are not applicable as the Company already uses a measurement date of December 31 for its pension plans. At December 31, 2006 the projected accrued pension obligation and accrued benefit obligation are each $1.7 million. See Note 8 for further discussion of the effect of adopting SFAS No. 158 on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. 0 Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries Revenue Recognition Residential properties (our multifamily segment) are leased under operating leases with terms of generally one year or less, and commercial properties (our office, medical office, retail and industrial segments) are leased under operating leases with average terms of three to seven years. We recognize rental income and rental abatements from our residential and commercial leases when earned on a straight-line basis in accordance with SFAS No. 13 “Accounting for Leases.” Recognition of rental income commences when control of the facility has been given to the tenant. We record a provision for losses on accounts receivable equal to the estimated uncollectible amounts. This estimate is based on our historical experience and a review of the current status of the company’s receivables. Percentage rents, which represent additional rents based on gross tenant sales, are recognized when tenants’ sales exceed specified thresholds. In accordance with SFAS No. 66, “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate,” sales are recognized at closing only when sufficient down payments have been obtained, possession and other attributes of ownership have been transferred to the buyer and we have no significant continuing involvement. We recognize cost reimbursement income from pass-through expenses on an accrual basis over the periods in which the expenses were incurred. Pass-through expenses are comprised of real estate taxes, operating expenses and common area maintenance costs which are reimbursed by tenants in accordance with specific allowable costs per tenant lease agreements. Minority Interest We entered into an operating agreement with a member of the entity that previously owned Northern Virginia Industrial Park in conjunction with the acquisition of this property in May 1998. This resulted in a minority ownership interest in this property based upon defined company ownership units at the date of purchase. The operating agreement was amended and restated in 2002 resulting in a reduced minority ownership percentage interest. We account for this activity by recording minority interest expense by applying the minority owner’s percentage ownership interest the net income of the property and including such amounts in our general and administrative expenses, thereby reducing net income. Minority interest expense was $204,100, $172,000 and $154,800 for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 respectively. Quarterly distributions are made to the minority owner equal to the quarterly dividend per share for each ownership unit. Deferred Financing Costs External costs associated with the issuance or assumption of mortgages, notes payable and fees associated with the lines of credit are capitalized and amortized using the effective interest rate method or the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest rate method over the term of the related debt. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005 deferred financing costs of $16.6 million and $11.1 million, respectively, net of accumulated amortization of $5.5 million and $4.6 million were included in Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets on the balance sheets. The amortization is included in interest expense in the accompanying statements of income. The amortization of debt costs included in interest expense totaled $1.6 million, $1.3 million and $1.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries 1 Deferred Leasing Costs Costs associated with the successful negotiation of leases, both external commissions and internal direct costs, are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. If an applicable lease terminates prior to the expiration of its initial lease term, the carrying amount of the costs are written-off to amortization expense. As of December 31, 2006 and 2005 deferred leasing costs of $20.0 million and $15.1 million, respectively, net of accumulated amortization of $6.8 million and $4.9 million, were included in Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets on the balance sheets. The amortization of deferred leasing costs included in amortization expense for properties classified as continuing operations totaled $2.6 million, $2.0 million and $1.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Real Estate and Depreciation Buildings are depreciated on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives ranging from 28 to 50 years. All capital improvement expenditures associated with replacements, improvements, or major repairs to real property that extend its useful life are capitalized and depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives ranging from 3 to 30 years. We also capitalize costs incurred in connection with our development projects, including capitalizing interest and other internal costs during periods in which development projects are in progress. In addition, we capitalize tenant leasehold improvements when certain criteria are met, including when we supervise construction and will own the improvements. All tenant improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life of the improvements or the term of the related tenant lease. Real estate depreciation expense from continuing operations for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 was $47.6 million, $41.8 million and $34.4 million, respectively. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred. We capitalize interest costs incurred on borrowing obligations while qualifying assets are being readied for their intended use in accordance with SFAS No. 34, “Capitalization of Interest Cost.” Total interest expense capitalized to real estate assets related to development and major renovation activities was $3,781,600, $1,127,300 and $703,400, for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Interest capitalized is amortized over the useful life of the related underlying assets upon those assets being placed into service. We recognize impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations, development assets or land held for future development, if indicators of impairment are present and the net undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are less than the assets’ carrying amount and estimated undiscounted cash flows associated with future development expenditures. If such carrying amount is in excess of the estimated cash flows from the operation and disposal of the property, we would recognize an impairment loss equivalent to an amount required to adjust the carrying amount to the estimated fair value. There were no property impairments recognized during the three-year period ended December 31, 2006. We allocate the purchase price of acquired properties to the related physical assets and in-place leases based on their fair values, in accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” The fair values of acquired buildings are determined on an “as-if-vacant” basis considering a variety of factors, including the physical condition and quality of the buildings, estimated rental and absorption rates, estimated future cash flows and valuation assumptions consistent with current market conditions. The “as-if-vacant” fair value is allocated to land, building and tenant improvements based on property tax assessments and other relevant information obtained in connection with the acquisition of the property.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries The fair value of in-place leases consists of the following components— (1) the estimated cost to us to replace the leases, including foregone rents during the period of finding a new tenant and foregone recovery of tenant pass- throughs (referred to as “Absorption Cost”), (2) the estimated cost of tenant improvements, and other direct costs associated with obtaining a new tenant (referred to as “Tenant Origination Cost”); (3) estimated leasing commissions associated with obtaining a new tenant (referred to as “Leasing Commissions”); (4) the above/at/below market cash flow of the leases, determined by comparing the projected cash flows of the leases in place to projected cash flows of comparable market-rate leases (referred to as “Net Lease Intangible”); and (5) the value, if any, of customer relationships, determined based on our evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and our overall relationship with the tenant (referred to as “Customer Relationship Value”). The amounts used to calculate Net Lease Intangible are discounted using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired. Tenant Origination Costs are included in Real Estate Assets on our balance sheet and are amortized as depreciation expense on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of the underlying leases. Leasing Commissions and Absorption Costs are classified as Other Assets and are amortized as amortization expense on a straight-line basis over the remaining life of the underlying leases. Net Lease Intangible Assets are classified as Other Assets and are amortized on a straight-line basis as a decrease to Real Estate Rental Revenue over the remaining term of the underlying leases. Net Lease Intangible Liabilities are classified as Other Liabilities and are amortized on a straight-line basis as an increase to Real Estate Rental Revenue over the remaining term of the underlying leases. Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the Tenant Origination Cost, Leasing Commissions, Absorption Costs and Net Lease Intangible associated with that lease are written off to depreciation expense, amortization expense, and rental revenue, respectively. Balances, net of accumulated depreciation or amortization, as appropriate, of the components of the fair value of in- place leases at December 31, 2006 and 2005 are as follows (in millions): Gross Carrying Value $19.8 2006 Accumulated Amortization $6.4 Tenant Origination Costs Leasing Commissions/Absorption Costs $16.3 Net Lease Intangible Assets Net Lease Intangible Liabilities $ 9.2 $13.0 $3.3 $3.5 $3.3 December 31, Gross Carrying Value $12.3 $ 7.4 $ 6.8 $ 8.9 2005 Accumulated Amortization $3.8 $2.2 $1.7 $1.8 Net $8.5 $5.2 $5.1 $7.1 Net $13.4 $13.0 $ 5.7 $ 9.7 Amortization of these components combined was $4.0 million, $3.0 million and $2.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. No value had been assigned to Customer Relationship Value at December 31, 2006 or December 31, 2005. Discontinued Operations We classify properties as held for sale when they meet the necessary criteria specified by SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” These include: senior management commits to and actively embarks upon a plan to sell the assets, the sale is expected to be completed within one year under terms usual and customary for such sales and actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. Depreciation on these properties is discontinued, but operating revenues, operating expenses and interest expense continue to be recognized until the date of sale. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  Under SFAS No. 144, revenues and expenses of properties that are either sold or classified as held for sale are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the Statements of Income. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include investments readily convertible to known amounts of cash with original maturities of 90 days or less. Restricted Cash Restricted cash at December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 consisted of $4.2 million and $1.8 million, respectively, in funds escrowed for tenant security deposits, real estate tax, insurance and mortgage escrows and escrow deposits required by lenders on certain of our properties to be used for future building renovations or tenant improvements. Stock Based Compensation We maintain a Share Grant Plan and Incentive Stock Option Plans as described in Note 7, and pursuant to these plans we have made restricted share grants and granted share options to officers, eligible employees and trustees. Shares are granted to officers, non-officer employees and trustees under the Share Grant Plan. Officer share grants vesting over five years vest in annual installments commencing one year after the date of grant and share grants that vest over three years vest twenty-five percent from date of grant in years one and two and fifty percent in year three. Officer performance share units, granted under an amendment to the Share Grant Plan, cliff vest at the end of a three year performance period. Officer and non-officer employee restricted share units, granted under an amendment to the Share Grant Plan, vest over 5 years. Trustee share grants are fully vested immediately upon date of share grant and are restricted from transferability for the period of the trustee’s service. Compensation expense is recognized for share grants over the vesting period equal to the fair market value of the shares on the date of issuance. Compensation expense for the trustee grants is fully recognized upon issuance based upon the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant. The unvested portion of officer and non-officer employee share grants is recognized in compensation cost over the vesting period. Unvested shares are forfeited upon an employee’s termination while unvested shares for employees eligible for retirement fully vest upon retirement. For shares granted to employees who are eligible for retirement or will become eligible for retirement during the vesting period, compensation cost is recognized over the explicit service period with acceleration of expense upon the date of actual retirement for these employees. The Company will continue this practice for awards granted prior to January 1, 2006, when SFAS No. 123R was adopted, and for shares granted after the adoption of SFAS No. 123R the Company will recognize compensation expense through the date that the employee is no longer required to provide service to earn the award (e.g. the date the employee is eligible to retire). Stock options were historically issued annually to officers, non-officer key employees and trustees under the Incentive Stock Option Plans. They were last issued to officers in 2002, to non-officer key employees in 2003 and to trustees in 2004. The options vested over a 2-year period in annual installments commencing one year after the date of grant, except for trustee options which vested immediately upon the date of grant. Stock options issued prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 123R are accounted for in accordance with APB No. 25, whereby if options are priced at fair market value or above at the date of grant and if other requirements are met then the plans are considered fixed and no compensation expense is recognized. Accordingly, we have recognized no compensation cost for stock options.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries Had we determined compensation cost prior to January 1, 2006 for the Plans consistent with SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” our net income and earnings per share would have been reduced to the following pro-forma amounts (in thousands, except per share data): Pro-forma Information Net income, as reported Add: Stock-based employee compensation expense included in reported net income Deduct: Total stock-based employee compensation expense determined under fair value method Pro-forma net income Earnings per share: Basic—as reported Basic—pro-forma Diluted—as reported Diluted—pro-forma Earnings per Common Share For the Years Ended December 31, 2005 $77,638 2004 $45,564 1,134 868 (1,210) $77,562 $ 1.85 $ 1.84 $ 1.84 $ 1.84 (1,218) $45,214 $ 1.09 $ 1.09 $ 1.09 $ 1.08 We calculate basic and diluted earnings per share in accordance with SFAS No. 128, “Earnings per Share.” “Basic earnings per share” is computed as net income divided by the weighted-average common shares outstanding. “Diluted earnings per share” is computed as net income divided by the total weighted-average common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive common equivalent shares outstanding for the period. Dilutive common equivalent shares reflect the assumed issuance of additional common shares pursuant to certain of our share based compensation plans that could potentially reduce or “dilute” earnings per share, based on the treasury stock method. Other potentially dilutive common shares, including shares potentially resulting from the senior convertible notes, are considered when calculating diluted earnings per share. Use of Estimates in the Financial Statements The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles U.S. generally accepted requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Reclassifications Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation. Comprehensive Income We recorded no comprehensive income for the twelve months ending December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  3. Real estate Investments: Our real estate investment portfolio, at cost, consists of properties located in Maryland, Washington, D.C. and Virginia as follows (in thousands): Office buildings Medical office buildings Retail centers Multifamily Industrial/Flex properties December 31, 2006 $ 645,414 2005 $ 520,966 246,143 254,472 145,007 304,765 142,067 190,383 132,464 265,039 $1,595,801 $1,250,919 The amounts above reflect properties classified as continuing operations, which means they are to be held and used in rental operations (income producing property). We have several properties in development in our office and multifamily sectors and one property in our retail sector that was in redevelopment for 2005 and most of 2006, but placed in service in 2006. The cost of our real estate portfolio in development is illustrated below (in thousands): Office buildings Medical office buildings Retail centers Multifamily Industrial/Flex properties December 31, 2006 $ 54,168 — 745 65,743 — $120,656 2005 $27,144 — 3,054 28,043 — $58,241 We dispose of assets (sometimes using tax-deferred exchanges) that are inconsistent with our long-term strategic or return objectives and where market conditions for sale are favorable. The proceeds from the sales may be redeployed into other properties, used to fund development operations or to support other corporate needs, or distributed to our shareholders. Properties are considered held for sale when they meet the criteria specified by SFAS No. 144 (see Note 2—Discontinued Operations). Depreciation on these properties is discontinued at that time, but operating revenues, other operating expenses and interest continue to be recognized until the date of sale. We had no properties held for sale at December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005. Our results of operations are dependent on the overall economic health of our markets, tenants and the specific segments in which we own properties. These segments include general purpose office, medical office, retail, multifamily and industrial. All sectors are affected by external economic factors, such as inflation, consumer confidence, unemployment rates, etc. as well as changing tenant and consumer requirements. Because the properties are located primarily in the Washington metro region, the Company is subject to a concentration of credit risk related to these properties. As of December 31, 2006 no single property or tenant accounted for more than 10% of total real estate assets or total revenues.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries Properties we acquired during the years ending December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 are as follows: Acquisition Date February 15, 2006 February 15, 2006 April 11, 2006 April 13, 2006 April 29, 2006 May 16, 2006 May 16, 2006 May 26, 2006 June 22, 2006 July 12, 2006 August 11, 2006 August 25, 2006 August 25, 2006 August 25, 2006 Property Hampton Overlook Hampton South Alexandria Professional Center 9707 Medical Center Drive 15001 Shady Grove Rd Montrose Shopping Center Randolph Shopping Center 9950 Business Parkway Plumtree Medical Center 15005 Shady Grove Road 6565 Arlington Blvd West Gude Drive The Ridges The Crescent Medical March 23, 2005 April 8, 2005 July 29,2005 Frederick Crossing Coleman Building Albemarle Point December 2, 2005 Dulles Station March 10, 2004 August 12, 2004 8880 Gorman Road Shady Grove Medical Village II October 12, 2004 8301 Arlington Boulevard December 22, 2004 Dulles Business Park Type Industrial Industrial Medical Office Medical Office Medical Office Retail Retail Industrial Medical Office Medical Office Office Office Office Medical Office Total 2006 Retail Industrial Office/Industrial Development Total 2005 Industrial Medical Office Medical Office Industrial Total 2004 Rentable Square Feet 134,000 Contract Purchase Price (in thousands) $ 10,040 168,000 113,000 38,000 51,000 143,000 82,000 102,000 33,000 52,000 140,000 289,000 104,000 49,000 13,060 26,900 15,800 21,000 33,200 17,100 11,700 7,700 22,500 30,000 57,000 25,000 12,000 1,498,000 $303,000 295,000 60,000 296,000 n/a $ 44,800 8,800 66,800 24,700 651,000 $145,100 141,000 66,000 50,000 265,000 522,000 $ 11,500 18,500 8,000 46,000 $ 84,000 We accounted for these acquisitions using the purchase method of accounting. As discussed in Note 2, we allocate the purchase price to the related physical assets (land, building and tenant improvements) and in-place leases (absorption, tenant origination costs, leasing commissions, and net lease intangible assets/liabilities) based on their fair values in accordance with SFAS No. 141, “Business Combinations.” The results of operations of the acquired properties are included in the income statement as of their respective acquisition date. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  We have allocated the total purchase price of the above acquisitions as follows (in millions): Allocation of Purchase Price 2004 2006 2005 $10.0 $ 21.4 $ 68.8 219.6 124.1 Land Buildings Tenant origination costs 7.5 4.2 Leasing commissions/ Absorption costs Net lease intangible assets 8.9 2.3 2.2 1.3 Net least intangible liabilities (4.1) (4.8) 72.3 2.8 1.3 2.9 (0.8) Total* $303.0 $148.4 $88.5 *Additional settlement costs, closing costs and adjustments are included in the basis for 2006, 2005 and 2004 The weighted average life in months for the components above, other than land and building, ranged from 4 months to 118 months for 2006 acquisitions and from 58 months to 120 months for 2005 acquisitions. The difference in total 2006 contract purchase price of properties acquired per the above chart of $303.0 million and the acquisition cost per the Statement of Cash Flows of $226.5 million is the $76.5 million in mortgages assumed on the acquisitions of 9707 Medical Center Drive, Plumtree Medical Center, 15005 Shady Grove Road, West Gude Drive, The Ridges and Crescent. The difference in total 2005 contract purchase price of properties acquired per the above chart of $145.1 million and the acquisition cost per the Statement of Cash Flows of $123.4 million is the $25.0 million mortgage assumed on the acquisition of Frederick Crossing, offset by $3.3 million in predevelopment costs (not included in the contract price) paid at closing for Dulles Station and closing costs on all acquisitions. The difference in total 2004 contract purchase price of properties acquired per the above chart of $84.0 million and the acquisition cost per the Statement of Cash Flows of $55.1 million is the $28.9 million in mortgages assumed on the acquisitions of Shady Grove Medical Village II and Dulles Business Park, net of closing costs. The following unaudited pro-forma combined condensed statements of operations set forth the consolidated results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005 as if the above described acquisitions had occurred at the beginning of the period of acquisition and the same period in the year prior to the acquisition. The unaudited pro-forma information does not purport to be indicative of the results that actually would have occurred if the acquisitions had been in effect for the years ended December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005. The unaudited data presented is in thousands, except per share data.

WRIT recognized a gain on disposal of $32.1 million, in accordance with SFAS No. 66, “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate.” $31.3 million of the proceeds from the disposition were escrowed in a tax-free property exchange account and subsequently used to fund a portion of the purchase price of Frederick Crossing Shopping Center on March 23, 2005 and the Coleman Building on April 8, 2005. The proceeds of $31.0 million were used to pay down borrowings outstanding under Credit Facility No. 2 (See Note 5- Unsecured Lines of Credit Payable). In September 2005, the industrial property was sold for $6.0 million for a gain of $3.0 million. Proceeds of $5.8 million were escrowed in a tax-free exchange account and were used to partially fund the purchase of Dulles Station on December 2, 2005. There were no properties classified as discontinued operations in 2006. Discontinued operations for 2005 consist of the properties sold in February and September 2005. For 2004, discontinued operations include those same properties and 8230 Boone Boulevard, which was sold on November 15, 2004. There was a gain of $1.9 million recognized in April 2005 that had been previously deferred from the sale of Boone Boulevard. On November 15, 2004, we sold 8230 Boone Boulevard for $10.0 million. A portion of the proceeds was in the form of a subordinated $1.8 million 10% note receivable from the seller, which was scheduled to mature in November 2005. We recognized a gain on disposal of $1.0 million and offset the $1.8 million note from the buyer with a deferred gain liability in the same amount, in accordance with SFAS No. 66, “Accounting for Sales of Real Estate.” SFAS No. 66 limits gain recognition when the seller’s note is subject to future subordination to the amount by which the buyer’s cash payments at settlement exceed the seller’s cost of the property sold. We distributed the gain from the 2004 disposition of 8230 Boone Boulevard to the shareholders. Also in November 2004 we concluded that 7700 Leesburg, Tycon Plaza II, Tycon Plaza III and certain development rights and approvals related to Tycon Plaza III met the criteria specified by SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” necessary to classify these properties as held for sale. Depreciation on these properties was discontinued at that time, but operating revenues and other operating expenses continued to be recognized until the date of sale. Under SFAS No.144 revenues and expenses of properties that are classified as held for sale or sold are presented as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the Statements of Income.

Due to the high probability that the mortgage will be paid off on August 11, 2010, that date is reflected in the future maturities schedule. Total carrying amount of the above mortgaged properties was $422.0 million and $289.4 million at December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Scheduled principal payments during the five years subsequent to December 31, 2006 and thereafter are as follows (in thousands): 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 Thereafter Principal Payments $11,264 3,571 53,768 25,428 12,763 130,279 $237,073 5. Unsecured Lines of Credit Payable: As of December 31, 2006, we maintained a $70.0 million unsecured line of credit maturing in July 2008 (“Credit Facility No. 1”) and a $200.0 million line of credit maturing in November 2010 (“Credit Facility No. 2”). Credit Facility No. 1 We had $28.0 million outstanding as of December 31, 2006 related to Credit Facility No. 1, and $1.9 million in Letters of Credit issued, with $40.1 million unused and available for subsequent acquisitions or capital improvements. $24.0 million was outstanding under this facility at December 31, 2005. During 2006, we borrowed $53.0 million to fund development projects, $102.5 million to fund acquisitions and $46.5 million for secured and unsecured debt  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries maturities. $198.0 million of gross borrowing was repaid under Credit Facility No. 1 in 2006 with proceeds from the $150.0 million 5.95% notes issued in June and July 2006, and the $110 million 3.875% convertible notes issued in September 2006. Advances under this agreement bear interest at LIBOR plus a spread. An advance may also be converted into a term loan based upon a Treasury rate plus a spread. All outstanding advances are due and payable upon maturity in July 2008. Interest only payments are due and payable generally on a monthly basis. For the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, we recognized interest expense (excluding unused commitment and facility fees) of $2,154,000, $898,000 and $192,000, respectively, on Credit Facility No. 1, representing an average interest rate of 5.64%, 3.88% and 2.93% per annum, respectively. Before its renewal in July 2005, Credit Facility No. 1 required us to pay the lender unused line of credit fees ranging of 0.15% per annum. The fee was paid quarterly in arrears. For the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, we incurred $38,400 and $89,000, respectively, in unused commitment fees on this facility. On July 25, 2005, we renewed Credit Facility No. 1, extending its maturity date to July 25, 2008, and increasing the commitment to $70.0 million. This renewal and extension included a carve-out for letters of credit in the amount of $14.0 million. Credit Facility No. 1 requires us to pay the lender an annual facility fee on the total commitment of 0.15% per annum. These fees are payable quarterly. For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, we incurred facility fees of $109,900 and $46,700, respectively. Credit Facility No. 2 On November 2, 2006, we entered into a new, unsecured revolving credit facility of $200.0 million with Wells Fargo Bank National Association, as Lead Arranger, The Royal Bank of Scotland PLC, as Syndication Agent and the Bank of New York, as the Document Agent. This facility replaces Credit Facility No. 3 (See –next section). WRIT has the option to further increase the capacity under the new facility up to $400 million from $200 million to the extent banks (from the syndicate or otherwise) agree to provide the additional commitment. In addition, WRIT has the ability to extend the maturity date of the facility for an additional one-year period to November 1, 2011. Under the new facility, WRIT may obtain letters of credit up to $20 million. We had $33.0 million outstanding as of December 31, 2006 related to Credit Facility No. 2, and $0.9 million in Letters of Credit issued. Borrowings during 2006 totaled $33.0 million to fund development costs, certain capital improvements to real estate and acquisition related due diligence costs. Advances under this agreement bear interest at WRIT’s option of LIBOR plus 0.40% or Wells Fargo Bank’s prime rate. All outstanding advances are due and payable upon maturity in November 2010. Interest only payments are due and payable generally on a monthly basis. For the year ended December 31, 2006, we recognized interest expense (excluding facility fees) of $48,000 representing an average interest rate of 5.86%. Currently, Credit Facility No. 2 requires us to pay the lender a facility fee on the total commitment of 0.15% per annum. These fees are payable quarterly. For the year ended December 31, 2006, we incurred facility fees of $50,000. Credit Facility No. 3 This $85.0 million line of credit with Bank One, NA (now J.P. Morgan) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association was terminated on November 2, 2006 and replaced with Credit Facility No. 2. No balance was outstanding under this facility at December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005. During 2006, we borrowed $109.0 million to fund acquisitions and $12.0 million to fund unsecured debt maturities. All borrowings were repaid using proceeds from the $100.0 million 5.95% notes issued in June 2006 and the $110.0 million 3.875% convertible notes issued in Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  September 2006. Advances under this agreement bore interest at LIBOR plus 55 basis points, based on the credit rating of our publicly issued debt. There were no outstanding advances payable under the facility upon the termination of the agreement in November 2006. Interest only payments were due and payable generally on a monthly basis. For the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, we recognized interest expense (excluding unused commitment and facility fees) of $684,000, $783,000, and $455,000, respectively, on Credit Facility No. 3, representing an average interest rate of 5.71%, 3.30%, and 2.36% per annum, respectively. From July 2002 through July 20, 2004, Credit Facility No. 3 had a maximum available commitment of $25.0 million and required us to pay the lender unused line of credit fees which averaged 0.326% in 2004. These fees were payable quarterly. For the year ended December 31, 2004 we incurred unused commitment fees of $29,500. On July 21, 2004, we closed on a $50.0 million line of credit with Bank One, NA (now J.P. Morgan) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, replacing the former $25.0 million facility. On November 10, 2004, we amended the Credit Agreement to increase the maximum available commitment from $50.0 million to $85.0 million. Credit Facility No. 3 required us to pay the lender a facility fee on the total commitment of 0.15% per annum, based on the credit rating on our publicly issued debt. These fees were payable quarterly. For the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, we incurred facility fees of $108,000, $131,200 and $41,200, respectively. Credit Facility No. 1 and No. 2 contain certain financial and non-financial covenants, all of which we have met as of December 31, 2006.

We also sold $60.0 million in unsecured Mandatory Par Put Remarketed Securities (“MOPPRS”) at an effective borrowing rate through the remarketing date (February 2008) of approximately 6.74%. Our costs of the borrowings and related closed hedge settlements of approximately $7.2 million are amortized over the lives of the notes using the effective interest method. These notes do not require any principal payment and are due in full at maturity. On November 6, 2000 we issued $55.0 million of 7.78% unsecured notes due November 2004. The notes bear an effective interest rate of 7.89%. Our total proceeds, net of underwriting fees, were $54.8 million. We used the  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries proceeds of these notes to repay advances on our lines of credit. We repaid notes on November 15, 2004, with a $50.0 million advance under Credit Facility No. 1 and a $7.0 million advance under Credit Facility No. 3. On March 17, 2003, we issued $60.0 million of 5.125% unsecured notes due March 2013. The notes bear an effective interest rate of 5.23%. Our total proceeds, net of underwriting fees, were $59.1 million. We used portions of the proceeds of these notes to repay advances on our lines of credit and to fund general corporate purposes. On December 11, 2003, we issued $100.0 million of 5.25% unsecured notes due January 2014. The notes bear an effective interest rate of 5.34%. Our total proceeds, net of underwriting fees, were $99.3 million. We used portions of the proceeds of these notes to repay advances on our lines of credit.

The net proceeds from the sale of the notes of $99.1 million were used to repay borrowings under our lines of credit totaling $90.5 million and the remainder was used for general corporate purposes. On October 6, 2005 we issued an additional $100.0 million of notes of the series of 5.35% senior unsecured notes due May 1, 2015, at an effective yield of 5.49%. $93.5 million of the $98.1 million net proceeds from the sale of these notes was used to repay borrowings under our lines of credit and to fund general corporate purposes. On June 6, 2006, we issued $100.0 million of 5.95% unsecured notes due June 15, 2011 at 99.951% of par, resulting in an effective interest rate of 5.96%.

On September 11, 2006, we issued $100.0 million of 3.875% senior convertible notes due September 15, 2026. On September 22, 2006, we issued an additional $10.0 million of the 3.875% senior convertible notes due September 15, 2026, upon the exercise by the underwriter of an over-allotment option granted by WRIT. The notes were issued at 99.5% of par, resulting in an effective interest rate of 4.000%. Our total proceeds, net of underwriting fees, were $106.7 million. We used the proceeds of these notes to repay borrowings under our lines of credit and to fund general corporate purposes. These notes are convertible into shares of our common stock, at the option of the holder, under specific circumstances or on or after July 15, 2026, at an initial exchange rate of 20.090 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes. This is equivalent to an initial conversion price of $49.78 per share, which represents a 22% premium over the $40.80 closing price of our shares at the time the transaction was priced. Holders may convert their notes into shares of our common stock prior to the maturity date based on the applicable conversion rate during any fiscal quarter if the closing price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on the last trading day of the immediate preceding fiscal quarter is more than 130% of the conversion price per share on the last day of such preceding fiscal quarter. The initial conversion rate is subject to adjustment in certain circumstances including an adjustment to the rate if the quarterly dividend rate to common shareholders is in excess of $0.4125 per share. In addition, the conversion rate will be adjusted if we make distributions of cash or other consideration by us or any of our subsidiaries in respect of a tender offer or exchange offer for our Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  common stock, to the extent such cash and the value of any such other consideration per share of common stock validly tendered or exchanged exceeds the closing price of our common stock as defined in the note offering. Upon an exchange of notes, we will settle any amounts up to the principal amount of the notes in cash and the remaining exchange value, if any, will be settled, at our option, in cash, common shares or a combination thereof. The senior convertible notes could have a dilutive impact on our earnings per share calculation in the future. However, these notes are not dilutive in the period and not included in our earnings per share calculations. On or after September 20, 2011, we may redeem the notes at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of the notes plus any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, up to, but excluding, the purchase date. In addition, on September 15, 2011, September 15, 2016 and September 15, 2021 or following the occurrence of certain change in control transactions prior to September 15, 2011, holders of these notes may require us to repurchase the notes for an amount equal to the principal amount of the notes plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

These notes contain certain financial and non-financial covenants, all of which we have met as of December 31, 2006. The covenants under one of the line of credit agreements require us to insure our properties against loss or damage in the amount of the replacement cost of the improvements at the properties. The covenants for the notes require us to keep all of our insurable properties insured against loss or damage at least equal to their then full insurable value.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries We have an insurance policy which has no terrorism exclusion; however, our financial condition and results of operations are subject to the risks associated with acts of terrorism and the potential for uninsured losses as the result of any such acts. Effective November 26, 2002, under this existing coverage, any losses caused by certified acts of terrorism would be partially reimbursed by the United States under a formula established by federal law. Under this formula the United States pays 85% of covered terrorism losses exceeding the statutorily established deductible paid by the insurance provider, and insurers pay 10% until aggregate insured losses from all insurers reach $100 billion in a calendar year. If the aggregate amount of insured losses under the Act exceeds $100 billion during the applicable period for all insured and insurers combined, then each insurance provider will not be liable for payment of any amount which exceeds the aggregate amount of $100 billion. This legislation expires December 31, 2007. 7. Share Options and grants: Options We adopted the Washington Real Estate Investment Trust 2001 Stock Option Plan to replace the 1991 Stock Option Plan that expired on June 25, 2001. The plans provided for the grant of qualified and non-qualified options. Options granted under the plans were granted with exercise prices equal to the market price on the date of grant vested 50% after year one and 50% after year two and expire ten years following the date of grant. We adopted the Washington Real Estate Investment Trust Stock Option Plan for Trustees in March 1998. Options granted to trustees were granted with exercise prices equal to the market price on the date of grant and were fully vested on the grant date. The last option awards to officers were in 2002, to non-officer key employees in 2003 and to trustees in 2004. Effective 2005 officers, non-officer key employees, and trustees received annual share grant awards described below. Outstanding at January 1 Granted Exercised Expired/Forfeited Outstanding at December 31 Exercisable at December 31 2006 2005 2004 Shares 531,000 Wtd Avg Ex Price 24.15 Shares 667,000 Wtd Avg Ex Price 23.49 — — — — (80,000) 22.60 (136,000) 20.91 — 451,000 451,000 — 24.42 24.42 — 531,000 531,000 — 24.15 24.15 Shares 977,000 12,000 (302,000) (20,000) 667,000 652,000 Wtd Avg Ex Price $21.99 33.09 18.70 28.14 23.49 23.34 The 451,000 options outstanding at December 31, 2006, all of which are exercisable, have exercise prices between $14.47 and $33.09, with a weighted-average exercise price of $24.42 and a weighted average remaining contractual life of 5.2 years. The aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding exercisable shares at December 31, 2006 was $7.0 million. The aggregate intrinsic value of options exercised in 2006, 2005 and 2004 was $1.2 million, $1.3 million and $3.4 million, respectively. The weighted-average fair value of options granted and related assumptions are summarized below: Weighted-average fair value of options granted Weighted-average assumptions: Expected lives (years) Risk free interest rate Expected volatility Expected dividend yield 2004 $2.79 5 3.53% 15.30% 4.75% Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  The assumptions used in the calculations of weighted average fair value of options granted are as prescribed under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Such assumptions may not be the same as those used by the financial community and others in determining the fair value of such options. The option values are based upon a Black Scholes model calculation. Share Grants, Performance Share Units and Restricted Share Units We maintain a Share Grant Plan for officers, trustees, and other members of management. In 2004 and 2005, awards were granted to officers and other members of management in the form of restricted shares, with a value equal to various percentages of a participant’s salary based upon WRIT’s performance compared to an appropriate benchmark target, with minimum and maximum thresholds. The awards were valued based on market value at the date of grant. Shares vest ratably over a five year period from the date of grant. In December 2006, WRIT Board of Trustees approved written amendments to the Share Grant Plan providing for the granting of restricted share units to officers and other members of management and performance share units to officers based upon various percentages of their salaries and their positions with WRIT. For officers, one-third of the award will be in the form of restricted share units that vest twenty percent per year based upon continued employment and two-thirds of the award will be in the form of performance share units. Performance targets will be set annually based on appropriate benchmarks with minimum and maximum thresholds. The grants and each award are based on cumulative performance over three years, and performance share units will cliff vest at the end of the three year period based upon the percentage of the performance targets achieved. For other members of management, 100% of the award will be in the form of restricted shares that vest 20% per year from date of grant based on performance targets. Performance targets will be set annually based on appropriate benchmarks with minimum and maximum thresholds. WRIT’s Chairman and CEO was excluded from long-term awards under the Share Grant Plan in view of his announced intention to retire in 2007. With respect to the performance share units, which are based on three- year cumulative performance targets set at the beginning of each year, the grant date does not occur until all such targets are set and thus the significant terms of the award are known. Because payouts are probable, the Company estimates the compensation expense at each reporting period, until the grant date occurs and as progress towards meeting target is known, and recognizes this expense ratably over the three-year period. The estimated expense related to the 2006 performance share units based on the stock price at the end of the period was approximately $1.7 million of which $554,000 was recognized in 2006. Participants who terminate prior to the end of the three- year performance period forfeit their entire portion of the award. There were 21,877 restricted share units awarded to officers and other members of management. Performance and restricted share units awarded were valued at a weighted average price of $39.54 per share based upon the market value on the date of grant. In 2004, trustees were awarded 400 share grants each. Beginning in 2005, annual long-term incentive compensation for trustees was changed from options of 2,000 shares plus 400 restricted shares to $30,000 in restricted shares. These shares vest immediately and are restricted from sale for the period of the trustees service. During 2006, 2005 and 2004 we issued 75,128, 11,182 and 88,732 share grants, respectively, to officers and other members of management. Of the restricted shares awarded in 2005, 11,182 were awarded by the Trust pursuant to the Employment Agreement of the Executive Vice President and Chief Investment Officer (CIO) in October 2005. These shares were fully vested upon the CIO’s severance from the Trust in June 2006. The 75,128 shares awarded in 2006 included an award of 64,700 shares to officers as the Trust transitions from 100% restricted share grants to  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries the terms of the share grant plan as amended in December 2006. The 64,700 shares vest twenty-five percent from date of grant in years one and two and fifty percent in year three except shares awarded to the CEO, totaling 21,349 shares, who announced his intention to retire in 2007, which shares vested and were expensed immediately upon date of grant. The following are tables of activity for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 related to our share grants, and restricted share unit grants. 2006 Shares 103,989 79,683 (67,042) (1,138) 115,492 191,217 Wtd Avg Grant Price 30.76 36.34 32.78 32.50 33.16 27.17 Share grants 2005 Shares 137,684 17,044 (36,708) (14,031) 103,989 124,175 Wtd Avg Ex Price 30.56 31.10 30.10 30.85 30.76 24.14 2004 Shares 68,491 91,132 (21,939) — 137,684 87,467 Wtd Avg Grant Price 27.47 31.88 26.47 — 30.56 21.64 Unvested at January 1 Granted Vested during year Expired/Forfeited Unvested at December 31 Vested at December 31 The total fair value of shares vested during the years ending December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 is $2.5 million, $1.1 million and $0.7 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2006, the total compensation cost related to non- vested share awards not yet recognized was $2.9 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 30 months on a straight-line basis.

Under the 401K Plan, the Company may make discretionary contributions on behalf of eligible employees. For the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, the Company made contributions to the 401K plan of $0.3 million each year. We have adopted a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for the officers and members of the Board of Trustees. The plan allows for a deferral of a percentage of annual cash compensation and trustee fees. The plan is unfunded 0 Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries and payments are to be made out of the general assets of the Trust. The deferred compensation liability was $1.8 million, $1.6 million and $1.3 million at December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Effective in 2007 under the Long Term Incentive Plan, elected deferrals of short term incentive awards by officers are converted into restricted share units and WRIT will match 25% of the deferred short term incentive in restricted share units. We established a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) effective July 1, 2002 for the benefit of the CEO. Under this plan, upon the CEO’s termination of employment from the Trust for any reason other than death or discharge for cause he will be entitled to receive an annual benefit equal to his accrued benefit times his vested interest. We account for this plan in accordance with SFAS No. 87, “Employers’ Accounting for Pensions,” whereby we accrue benefit cost in an amount that will result in an accrued balance at the end of the CEO’s employment which is not less than the present value of the estimated benefit payments to be made. For the three years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, we recognized current service cost of $467,000, $419,000 and $355,000, respectively. On December 31, 2006, WRIT adopted the recognition and disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 158. SFAS No. 158 required the Trust to recognize the funded status (i.e., the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the projected benefit obligations) of its pension plan in the December 31, 2006 statement of financial position, with a corresponding adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income, net of tax. Because the CEO’s SERP is unfunded, the adoption of SFAS No. 158 did not have an effect on the Trust’s consolidated financial condition at December 31, 2006, or for any prior period presented and it will not affect the Trust’s operating results in future periods. The Trust currently has an investment in corporate owned life insurance intended to meet the SERP benefit liability upon the CEO’s retirement. In November 2005, the Board of Trustees approved the establishment of a SERP for the benefit of the officers, other than the CEO. This is a defined contribution plan under which, upon a participant’s termination of employment from the Trust for any reason other than discharge for cause, the participant will be entitled to receive a benefit equal to the participant’s accrued benefit times the participant’s vested interest. We account for this plan in accordance with EITF 97-14, “Accounting for Deferred Compensation Arrangements Where Amounts Earned are Held in a Rabbi Trust and Invested” and SFAS No. 115, “Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities,” whereby the investments are reported at fair value, and unrealized holding gains and losses are included in earnings. For the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, we recognized current service cost of $269,000 and $146,000, respectively. This plan supersedes the split dollar life insurance plan terminated in April 2006. The Company terminated the split dollar agreements regaining ownership of the policies. 9. Fair Value of Financial Instruments: SFAS No. 107 “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments. Whenever possible, the estimated fair value has been determined using quoted market information as of December 31, 2006. The estimated market values have not been updated since December 31, 2006; therefore, current estimates of fair value may differ significantly from the amounts presented. Below is a summary of significant methodologies used in estimating fair values and a schedule of fair values at December 31, 2006. Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents includes cash and commercial paper with remaining maturities of less than 90 days, which are valued at the carrying value. Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries 1 Mortgage notes payable Mortgage notes payable consist of instruments in which certain of our real estate assets are used for collateral. The fair value of the mortgage notes payable is estimated based upon dealer quotes for instruments with similar terms and maturities. Lines of credit payable Lines of credit payable consist of bank facilities which we use for various purposes including working capital, acquisition funding or capital improvements. The lines of credit advances are priced at a specified rate plus a spread. The carrying value of the lines of credit payable is estimated to be market value since the interest rate adjusts with the market. Notes payable The fair value of these securities is estimated based on dealer quotes for securities with similar terms and characteristics. 2006 2005 (in thousands) Cash and cash equivalents Mortgage notes payable Lines of credit payable Notes payable Carrying Value $ 12,871 $237,073 $ 61,000 $728,255 Fair Value $ 12,871 $239,781 $ 61,000 $736,081 Carrying Value $ 6,702 $169,617 $ 24,000 $518,600 Fair Value $ 6,702 $171,478 $ 24,000 $523,768 10. Rentals under Operating Leases: Non-cancelable commercial operating leases provide for minimum rental income from continuing operations during each of the next five years and thereafter as follows (in millions): 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 Thereafter Rental Income $170.4 152.9 130.8 105.4 76.1 198.4 $834.0 Apartment leases are not included as they are generally for one year. Most of these commercial leases increase in future years based on agreed-upon percentages or in some instances, changes in the Consumer Price Index. Percentage rents from retail centers, based on a percentage of tenants’ gross sales, were $0.4 million, $0.1 million and $0.3 million in 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively. Real estate tax, operating expense and common area maintenance reimbursement income from continuing operations was $19.0 million, $15.5 million and $12.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004, respectively.  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries 11. Commitments and Contingencies: Development Commitments At December 31, 2006 and 2005, we had various contracts outstanding with third parties in connection with our ongoing development projects. Total accumulated spending, including land costs, for development projects at December 31, 2006 and December 31, 2005 were $125.3 million and $56.7 million, respectively. Remaining contractual commitments for development projects at December 31, 2006 were $52.2 million. Litigation We are involved from time to time in various legal proceedings, lawsuits, examinations by various tax authorities and claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Management believes that the resolution of such matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations. Other At December 31, 2006, we were contingently liable under unused letters of credit in the amounts of $885,000 and $815,000, related to our assumption of mortgage debt on Dulles Business Park and West Gude, respectively, to ensure the funding of certain tenant improvements and leasing commissions over the term of the debt. We were also contingently liable under unused letters of credit totaling $1,053,000 related to our development projects at Clayborne Apartments, the Shoppes at Foxchase and Bennett Park, to ensure the complete installation of public improvements in accordance with the projects’ related site plans. 12. Segment Information: We have five reportable segments: general purpose office buildings, medical office buildings, retail centers and multifamily and industrial/flex properties. General purpose office buildings provide office space for various types of businesses and professions. Medical office buildings provide offices and facilities for a variety of medical services. Retail centers are typically neighborhood grocery store or drug store anchored retail centers. Multifamily properties provide rental housing for families throughout the Washington metropolitan area. Industrial/flex centers are used for flex-office, warehousing, services and distribution type facilities. Real estate revenue as a percentage of the total for each of the five reportable operating segments is as follows: Office Medical office Retail Multifamily Industrial/Flex Year Ended December 31, 2005 40% 2006 40% 2004 45% 11% 17% 15% 17% 10% 17% 16% 17% 8% 16% 17% 14% Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  The percentage of total income producing real estate assets, at cost, for each of the five reportable operating segments is as follows: Office Medical office Retail Multifamily Industrial/Flex December 31, 2006 41% 15% 16% 9% 19% 2005 42% 11% 15% 11% 21% The accounting policies of each of the segments are the same as those described in Note 2. We evaluate performance based upon operating income from the combined properties in each segment. Our reportable operating segments are consolidations of similar properties. SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” or SFAS No. 131, requires that segment disclosures present the measure(s) used by the chief operating decision maker for purposes of assessing segments’ performance. Net operating income is a key measurement of our segment profit and loss. Net operating income is defined as segment revenues less direct segment operating expenses. The following table presents revenues and net operating income for the years ended December 31, 2006, 2005 and 2004 from these segments, and reconciles net operating income of reportable segments to operating income as reported (in thousands): 2006 Real estate rental revenue Medical Office $ 86,813 $ 24,660 Office Retail $ 37,263 Multi- family Industrial/ Corporate and Other Flex Consoli- dated $ 32,478 $ 38,448 $ — $ 219,662 Real estate expenses 29,864 7,186 7,983 13,220 9,016 — 67,269 Net operating income $ 56,949 $ 17,474 $ 29,280 $ 19,258 $ 29,432 $ — $ 152,393 Depreciation and amortization Interest expense General and administrative Other income Net income (54,170) (47,846) (12,622) 906 $ 38,661 Capital expenditures $ 17,268 $ 1,126 $ 966 $ 13,290 $ 5,218 $ 1,666 $ 39,534 Total assets $599,062 $236,552 $233,810 $159,720 $269,341 $ 32,780 $1,531,265  Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries Office Medical Office Retail 2005 Multi- family Real estate rental revenue $ 76,976 $ 18,024 $ 31,907 $ 30,529 Industrial/ Corporate and Other $ 32,610 $ — $ 190,046 Consoli- dated Flex Real estate expenses 26,277 4,650 6,878 12,816 7,495 — 58,116 Net operating income $ 50,699 $ 13,374 $ 25,029 $ 17,713 $ 25,115 $ — $ 131,930 Depreciation and amortization Interest expense General and administrative Other income Income from discontinued operations Gain on property disposal Net income (47,161) (37,743) (8,005) 1,422 184 37,011 $ 77,638 Capital expenditures $ 14,625 $ 609 $ 1,904 $ 10,955 $ 2,644 $ 437 $ 31,174 Total assets $457,398 $133,274 $175,141 $115,589 $237,808 $19,949 $1,139,159 Real estate rental revenue Office $ 77,070 Medical Office $ 15,050 Retail $ 27,243 2004 Multi- family $28,858 Industrial/ Corporate Consoli- and Other dated Flex $ 23,425 $ — $ 171,646 Real estate expenses 24,835 3,686 5,899 11,637 5,271 — 51,328 Net operating income $ 52,235 $ 11,364 $ 21,344 $17,221 $ 18,154 $ — $ 120,318 Depreciation and amortization Interest expense General and administrative Other income Income from discontinued operations Gain on property disposal Net income (39,309) (34,500) (6,194) 326 3,894 1,029 $ 45,564 Capital expenditures $ 14,707 $ 375 $ 741 $ 6,838 $ 2,503 $ 101 $ 25,265 Total assets $447,439 $137,136 $126,594 $93,191 $187,295 $20,738 $1,012,393 Washington Real Estate Investment Trust and Subsidiaries  13.
