To the best of the knowledge and belief of the Saul Entities, none of the directors and/or executive officers of the Saul Entities has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) during the last five years from the date of this Amendment.

None of the persons filing this statement was a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws during the last five years from the date of this Amendment.

To the best of the knowledge and belief of the Saul Entities, none of the directors and/or executive officers of the Saul Entities was a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violations with respect to such laws during the last five years from the date of this Amendment.

All individuals named in this Schedule 13D are citizens of the United States of America.

ITEM 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

Item 3 is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

A Deferred Compensation and Stock Plan for Directors (the “Directors Plan”) was established by Saul Centers for the benefit of its directors and their beneficiaries. Pursuant to the Directors Plan, B. Francis Saul II has elected to defer all of his director’s fees into a stock deferred fee account. Fees earned during a calendar quarter are aggregated and divided by the Common Stock’s closing market price on the first trading day of the following quarter to determine the number of shares to be allocated to Mr. Saul. Upon the occurrence of events

Page 19 of 25 Pages

specified in the Directors Plan, amounts credited to the stock deferred fee account shall be paid by the delivery by Saul Centers of certificates representing a like number of shares of Common Stock. Under the terms of the Directors Plan, Mr. Saul is not eligible to vote or dispose of the shares of Common Stock until they are issued. Because Mr. Saul does not have the current ability to vote or dispose of the shares of Common Stock, they have not historically been reported on the Schedule 13D. However, although unlikely at this time, some of the events that would cause the delivery of the Common Stock to Mr. Saul could, in theory, take place within 60 days.

On the date of Amendment No. 33, Mr. Saul had deferred fees that would entitle him to delivery of 19,469 shares of Common Stock.

Amounts held in the stock deferred fee account receive dividends on the same basis as shares of Common Stock, with dividends being reinvested on terms identical to Saul Centers’ DRIP. Since the date of Amendment No. 32, no dividend reinvestments have been made pursuant to Mr. Saul’s stock deferred fee account.

Saul Centers instituted a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan in December 1995 (the “DRIP”) through which holders of Common Stock and holders of limited partnership interests in Saul Holdings Limited Partnership may choose to have some or all of their cash dividends or cash distributions automatically reinvested in shares of Common Stock. Saul Centers has not issued Common Stock pursuant to the DRIP since the filing of Amendment Number 32 to this Schedule 13D. Under Saul Centers’ 2004 Stock Plan, the Board of Directors has approved an annual award of 200 shares of Common Stock to each person serving on the Board of Directors of Saul Centers as of the record date for the annual meeting of stockholders. B. Francis Saul II has elected to participate in the DRIP with respect to these shares. In addition, under the 2004 Stock Plan, Mr. Saul receives an annual grant of an option to purchase 2,500 shares. Options to purchase 17,500 shares are exercisable within 60 days of this Amendment.

ITEM 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

The purpose of the acquisition of shares of Common Stock by the Saul Entities, the Trusts (as defined in Item 5(b) below), B. Francis Saul II and Patricia E. Saul is investment. The Saul Entities, the Trusts, B. Francis Saul II and Patricia E. Saul may purchase additional shares of Common Stock from time to time for the purpose of investment, subject to ownership limitations set forth in the Articles of Incorporation, as amended, of Saul Centers.

ITEM 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Item 5 is amended in its entirety to read as follows:

a. The number and percentage of Common Shares beneficially owned by the reporting persons are set forth in the following table:


Reporting Person	Number of Shares Beneficially Owned		Percentage Of Class (%)
B. Francis Saul II	10,658,274	(1)	47.3
B. F. Saul Company	9,973,590	(2)	44.4

(1)

Includes all of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Saul Entities, the Trusts and Mrs. Patricia E. Saul. B. Francis Saul II owns 2,408 shares of Common Stock directly and owns options to purchase 17,500 shares of Common Stock that are exercisable within 60 days, as well as 19,469 shares of phantom stock pursuant to the Directors Plan, which may be exchanged for shares of Common Stock under certain circumstances. In addition, units equivalent to 99,376 shares of Common Stock are held in the individual 401(k) account of B. Francis Saul II. Pursuant to Rule 13d-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the shares of Common Stock described above are considered to be beneficially owned by Mr. Saul because he has or may be deemed to have sole or shared voting and/or investment power in respect thereof. Mr. Saul disclaims beneficial ownership of 23,014 shares held by the Trusts, 79,941 shares held by Mrs. Patricia E. Saul and units equivalent to 4,188 shares of Common Stock held in the individual 401(k) account Mrs. Patricia E. Saul.
