This is a problem between Unity and Prism.

Apparently, when the version of Prism for .NET 4.5 was built they were using a version of Unity signed with a version number of 3.0.1208.0. However, in the latest releases of Unity it seems that they reset that number back to 3.0.0.0, which is causing this error as the latest version of Unity has a lower version number that the previous one.

There is a thread in the CodePlex forums for Prism mentioning this with a couple of workarounds for it:
