The reported results are unaudited and there can be no assurance that the results will not vary from the final information for the quarter ended September 30, 2011. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of these reported results have been made.

Proceeds from the mortgage financing were used to repay the borrowing under the Company’s Operating Partnership’s Unsecured Line of Credit totaling approximately $453.3 million, which borrowing was secured by a mortgage on the property. The additional cash proceeds were used to refinance the $267.5 million mortgage loan collateralized by the Company’s 510 Madison Avenue property located in New York City. In connection with the refinancing, the lien of the 510 Madison Avenue mortgage was spread to 601 Lexington Avenue and released from 510 Madison Avenue so that 510 Madison Avenue is no longer encumbered by any mortgage debt. |

EPS and FFO per Share Guidance:
The Company’s guidance for the fourth quarter 2011 and full year 2012 for EPS (diluted) and FFO per share (diluted) is set forth and reconciled below. Except as described below, the estimates reflect management’s view of current and future market conditions, including assumptions with respect to rental rates, occupancy levels and the earnings impact of the events referenced in this release and otherwise referenced during the conference call referred to below. In addition, the estimates for the full year 2012 when compared to the full year 2011 include, among other things, the impact of the redevelopment of Patriots Park in Reston, Virginia (which is expected to reduce 2012 FFO by approximately $0.14 per share) and the reduction in non-cash fair value lease revenue associated with investments in unconsolidated joint ventures (which is expected to reduce 2012 FFO by approximately $0.11 per share). The estimates do not include possible future gains or losses or the impact on operating results from other possible future property acquisitions or dispositions, other possible capital markets activity or possible future impairment charges. EPS estimates may be subject to fluctuations as a result of several factors, including changes in the recognition of depreciation and amortization expense and any gains or losses associated with disposition activity. The Company is not able to assess at this time the potential impact of these factors on projected EPS. By definition, FFO does not include real estate-related depreciation and amortization or gains or losses associated with disposition activities. There can be no assurance that the Company’s actual results will not differ materially from the estimates set forth below.

| (1) | Pursuant to the revised definition of Funds from Operations adopted by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”), we calculate Funds from Operations, or “FFO,” by adjusting net income (loss) attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. (computed in accordance with GAAP, including non-recurring items) for gains (or losses) from sales of properties, real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustment for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. FFO is a non-GAAP financial measure. The use of FFO, combined with the required primary GAAP presentations, has been fundamentally beneficial in improving the understanding of operating results of REITs among the investing public and making comparisons of REIT operating results more meaningful. Management generally considers FFO to be a useful measure for reviewing our comparative operating and financial performance because, by excluding gains and losses related to sales of previously depreciated operating real estate assets and excluding real estate asset depreciation and amortization (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar condition based on historical cost accounting and useful life estimates), FFO can help one compare the operating performance of a company’s real estate between periods or as compared to different companies. |
Our computation of FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs or real estate companies that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the current NAREIT definition differently.
FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. (determined in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of our performance. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, and is not a measure of liquidity or an indicator of our ability to make cash distributions. We believe that to further understand our performance, FFO should be compared with our reported net income attributable to Boston Properties, Inc. and considered in addition to cash flows in accordance with GAAP, as presented in our consolidated financial statements.
| (2) | Real estate depreciation and amortization consists of depreciation and amortization from the Consolidated Statements of Operations of $109,495, $81,133, $330,003 and $245,608, our share of unconsolidated joint venture real estate depreciation and amortization of $25,633, $26,602, $79,378 and $87,739, less corporate-related depreciation and amortization of $351, $435, $1,005 and $1,374 for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. |
