5.125% SENIOR NOTE DUE 2012

 

NEW PLAN EXCEL REALTY TRUST, INC., a corporation duly organized and
existing under the laws of the State of Maryland (herein referred to as the “Company,”
which term shall include any successor corporation under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede &
Co. or registered assigns, upon presentation, the principal sum of One Hundred Twenty
Five Million Dollars ($125,000,000) on September 15, 2012 (the “Stated
Maturity Date”), unless redeemed in full prior to the Stated Maturity Date, and
to pay interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from September 19,
2005 or from the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date (as defined below)
to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semiannually in arrears
on March 15 and September 15 in each year (each, an “Interest Payment
Date”), commencing March 15, 2006, at the rate of 5.125% per annum, until
the entire principal hereof is paid or made

 

 

available for
payment.  The interest so payable and
punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date will, as
provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest,
which shall be February 28 or August 31 (whether or not a Business
Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date.  Any such interest not so punctually paid or
duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such
Regular Record Date, and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this
Note is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the
payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee (as defined
below), notice whereof shall be given to Holders of the Notes not more than 15
days and not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be
paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the
requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes (as defined below)
may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as
more fully provided in the Indenture.

 

Payment of the principal of and Make-Whole Amount (as defined below), if
any, and interest on this Note on the Stated Maturity Date or date of earlier
redemption will be made in same day funds against presentation and surrender of
this Note at the office or agency maintained for that purpose in the City of
New York, or elsewhere as provided in the Indenture, in such coin or currency
of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that if this Note is
not a global note, at the option of the Company, payments of interest on any Interest
Payment Date other than the Stated Maturity Date or date of earlier redemption
may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as
such address shall appear in the Security Register; provided further, that
interest due on an Interest Payment Date on or prior to a date previously set
for redemption will be paid on such Interest Payment Date to the holder of this
Note on the applicable Regular Record Date. 
Interest on this Note will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of
twelve 30-day months.

 

This Note will be part of a series of debt securities of the Company
(herein called the “Debt Securities”) titled “5.125% Senior Notes Due 2012”
(herein called the “Notes”), issued and to be issued in one or more series
under an Indenture, dated as of January 30, 2004 (the “Indenture”), by and
between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as trustee
(herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under
the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto
reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations
of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the
Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are authenticated
and delivered.

This Note may be redeemed at any time at the option of the Company, in
whole or in part, in accordance with the terms of Article Eleven of the
Indenture, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) the principal
amount being redeemed plus unpaid interest accrued thereon to the Redemption
Date and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount, if any, with respect thereto.

 

Notwithstanding anything in the Indenture to the contrary, “Make-Whole
Amount” means, in connection with any optional redemption of any Notes, the
excess, if any, of

 

•                  the aggregate present value as of the Redemption Date of each dollar
of principal being redeemed and the amount of interest, exclusive of interest
accrued to the Redemption Date, that would have been payable in respect of each
such dollar of principal if the redemption had not been made, determined by
discounting, on a semiannual basis, such principal and interest at the
Reinvestment Rate (as defined below), determined on the third business day
preceding the date notice of the redemption is given, from the respective dates
on which such principal and interest would have been payable if the redemption
had not been made, to the Redemption Date, over

 

•                  the aggregate principal amount of the Notes being redeemed.

 

“Reinvestment Rate” means a rate per annum equal to the sum of 0.15% plus
the arithmetic mean of the yields under the heading “Week Ending” published in
the most recent Statistical Release (as defined below) under the caption “Treasury
Constant Maturities” for the maturity (rounded to the nearest month)
corresponding to the remaining life to maturity of the Notes, as of the
Redemption Date of the Notes being redeemed. 
If no maturity exactly corresponds to the maturity, yields for the two
published maturities most closely corresponding to that maturity shall be
calculated pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and the Reinvestment
Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight-line
basis, rounding each of the relevant periods to the nearest month.  For purposes of calculating the Reinvestment
Rate, the most recent Statistical Release published prior to the date of
determination of the Make-Whole Amount shall be used.

 

“Statistical Release” means the statistical release
designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is published weekly
by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which reports
yields on actively traded United States government securities adjusted to
constant maturities or, if the statistical release is not published at the time
of any determination of the Make-Whole Amount, then such other reasonably
comparable index which shall be designated by us.

 

3

 

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the
entire indebtedness of the Company on this Note and (b) certain
restrictive covenants and the related defaults and Events of Default applicable
to the Company, in each case, upon compliance by the Company with certain
conditions set forth in the Indenture, which provisions apply to this Note.

 

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the
manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

 

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder
of this Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect
to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any
other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given written
notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the
Notes, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes at the
time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute
proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the
Trustee reasonable indemnity and the Trustee shall not have received from the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding
a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute
any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and
offer of indemnity.  The foregoing shall
not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement
of any payment of principal hereof or any Make-Whole Amount or interest hereon
on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

 

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the Holders of the Outstanding Debt Securities of
each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and
the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in
principal amount of all Outstanding Debt Securities affected thereby.  The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the
Notes at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to
waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and
certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.  Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of
this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future
Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer
hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of
such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

 

4

 

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and Make-Whole Amount, if
any) and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or
currency, herein prescribed.

 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
and herein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security
Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the
office or agency of the Company in any Place of Payment where the principal of
(and Make-Whole Amount, if any) and interest on this Note are payable, duly
endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the
Holder hereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon
one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate
principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

 

The Notes are issuable only in registered form in denominations of $1,000
and any integral multiple thereof.  As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein
set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of
Notes of this series of a different authorized denomination, as requested by
the Holder surrendering the same.

 

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

 

Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the
Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the
Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all
purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the
Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained
in the Indenture or in this Note, or because of any indebtedness evidenced
hereby or thereby, shall be had against any promoter, as such, or against any
past, present or future stockholder, officer or director, as such, of the
Company or of any successor, either directly or through the Company or any
successor, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or
by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or
otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived

 

5

 

and released
by the acceptance of this Note by the Holder thereof and as part of the
consideration for the issue of the Notes.

 

All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Note which
are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the
Indenture.

 

THE INDENTURE AND THE NOTES, INCLUDING THIS NOTE, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform
Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused a “CUSIP” number to
be printed on the Notes as a convenience to the Holders of such Notes.  No representation is made as to the
correctness or accuracy of such CUSIP number as printed on the Notes, and reliance
may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.

 

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by or on
behalf of the Trustee by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to
any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

NEW PLAN EXCEL REALTY TRUST, INC., a corporation duly organized and

to pay interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from September 19,
2005 or from the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date (as defined below)

on March 15 and September 15 in each year (each, an “Interest Payment

punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date will, as
provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest,
which shall be February 28 or August 31 (whether or not a Business

duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such
Regular Record Date, and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this
Note is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the
payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee (as defined
below), notice whereof shall be given to Holders of the Notes not more than 15
days and not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be
paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the
requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes (as defined below)
may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as
more fully provided in the Indenture.

 

Payment of the principal of and Make-Whole Amount (as defined below), if

redemption will be made in same day funds against presentation and surrender of
this Note at the office or agency maintained for that purpose in the City of
New York, or elsewhere as provided in the Indenture, in such coin or currency
of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for
payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that if this Note is
not a global note, at the option of the Company, payments of interest on any Interest
Payment Date other than the Stated Maturity Date or date of earlier redemption
may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as
such address shall appear in the Security Register; provided further, that
interest due on an Interest Payment Date on or prior to a date previously set
for redemption will be paid on such Interest Payment Date to the holder of this
Note on the applicable Regular Record Date. 
Interest on this Note will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of

This Note will be part of a series of debt securities of the Company
(herein called the “Debt Securities”) titled “5.250% Senior Notes Due 2015”

under an Indenture, dated as of January 30, 2004 (the “Indenture”), by and
between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as trustee
(herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under
the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto
reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations
of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the
Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are authenticated
and delivered.

This Note may be redeemed at any time at the option of the Company, in
whole or in part, in accordance with the terms of Article Eleven of the
Indenture, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) the principal
amount being redeemed plus unpaid interest accrued thereon to the Redemption
Date and (ii) the Make-Whole Amount, if any, with respect thereto.

 

Notwithstanding anything in the Indenture to the contrary, “Make-Whole
Amount” means, in connection with any optional redemption of any Notes, the
excess, if any, of

 

•                  the aggregate present value as of the Redemption Date of each dollar
of principal being redeemed and the amount of interest, exclusive of interest
accrued to the Redemption Date, that would have been payable in respect of each
such dollar of principal if the redemption had not been made, determined by
discounting, on a semiannual basis, such principal and interest at the
Reinvestment Rate (as defined below), determined on the third business day
preceding the date notice of the redemption is given, from the respective dates
on which such principal and interest would have been payable if the redemption
had not been made, to the Redemption Date, over

 

•                  the aggregate principal amount of the Notes being redeemed.

 

“Reinvestment Rate” means a rate per annum equal to the sum of 0.20% plus
the arithmetic mean of the yields under the heading “Week Ending” published in
the most recent Statistical Release (as defined below) under the caption “Treasury
Constant Maturities” for the maturity (rounded to the nearest month)
corresponding to the remaining life to maturity of the Notes, as of the
Redemption Date of the Notes being redeemed. 
If no maturity exactly corresponds to the maturity, yields for the two
published maturities most closely corresponding to that maturity shall be
calculated pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence and the Reinvestment
Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight-line
basis, rounding each of the relevant periods to the nearest month.  For purposes of calculating the Reinvestment
Rate, the most recent Statistical Release published prior to the date of
determination of the Make-Whole Amount shall be used.

 

“Statistical Release” means the statistical release
designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is published weekly
by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which reports
yields on actively traded United States government securities adjusted to
constant maturities or, if the statistical release is not published at the time
of any determination of the Make-Whole Amount, then such other reasonably
comparable index which shall be designated by us.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the
entire indebtedness of the Company on this Note and (b) certain
restrictive covenants and the related defaults and Events of Default applicable
to the Company, in each case, upon compliance by the Company with certain
conditions set forth in the Indenture, which provisions apply to this Note.

 

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the
manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

 

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder
of this Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect
to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any
other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given written
notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the
Notes, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes at the
time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute
proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the
Trustee reasonable indemnity and the Trustee shall not have received from the
Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding
a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute
any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and
offer of indemnity.  The foregoing shall
not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement
of any payment of principal hereof or any Make-Whole Amount or interest hereon
on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

 

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the Holders of the Outstanding Debt Securities of
each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and
the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in
principal amount of all Outstanding Debt Securities affected thereby.  The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the
Notes at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to
waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and
certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.  Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of
this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future
Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer
hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of
such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

 

4

 

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of
the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and Make-Whole Amount, if
any) and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or
currency, herein prescribed.

and herein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security
Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the
office or agency of the Company in any Place of Payment where the principal of

satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the
Holder hereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon
one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate
principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

 

The Notes are issuable only in registered form in denominations of $1,000

provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein
set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of
Notes of this series of a different authorized denomination, as requested by
the Holder surrendering the same.

 

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or
exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

 

Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the
Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the
Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all

hereby or thereby, shall be had against any promoter, as such, or against any
past, present or future stockholder, officer or director, as such, of the
