BOSTON PROPERTIES, INC

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited and in thousands)

1.  Organization

    Boston Properties, Inc. (the "Company"), a Delaware corporation, is a self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT"). The Company is the sole general partner of Boston Properties Limited Partnership (the "Operating Partnership") and at June 30, 2001, owned an approximate 75% general and limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership. Partnership interests in the Operating Partnership are denominated as "common units of partnership interest" (also referred to as "OP Units") or "preferred units of partnership interest" (also referred to as "Preferred Units"). All references to OP Units and Preferred Units exclude such units held by the Company. A holder of an OP Unit may present such OP Unit to the Operating Partnership for redemption at any time (subject to restrictions agreed upon the issuance of OP Units to particular holders that may restrict such right for a period of time, generally one year from issuance). Upon presentation of an OP Unit for redemption, the Operating Partnership must redeem such OP Unit for cash equal to the then value of a share of common stock of the Company ("Common Stock"), except that, the Company may, at its election, in lieu of a cash redemption, acquire such OP Unit for one share of Common Stock. Because the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding at all times equals the number of OP Units that the Company owns, one share of Common Stock is generally the economic equivalent of one OP Unit, and the quarterly distribution that may be paid to the holder of an OP Unit equals the quarterly dividend that may be paid to the holder of a share of Common Stock. Each series of Preferred Units bear a distribution that is set in accordance with an amendment to the partnership agreement of the Operating Partnership. Preferred Units may also be convertible into OP Units at the election of the holder thereof or the Company.

    All references to the Company refer to Boston Properties, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including the Operating Partnership, collectively, unless the context otherwise requires.

    To assist the Company in maintaining its status as a REIT, the Company leases its three hotel properties, pursuant to a lease with a participation in the gross receipts of such hotel properties, to a lessee ("ZL Hotel LLC") in which Messrs. Zuckerman and Linde, the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, respectively, are the sole member-managers. Messrs. Zuckerman and Linde have a 9.8% economic interest in such lessee and one or more unaffiliated public charities have a 90.2% economic interest. Marriott International, Inc. manages these hotel properties under the Marriott® name pursuant to a management agreement with the lessee. Under the REIT requirements, revenue from a hotel are not considered to be rental income for purposes of certain income tests that a REIT must meet. Accordingly, in order to maintain its qualification as a REIT, the Company has entered into the participating leases described above to provide revenue that qualifies as rental income under the REIT requirements.

    As of June 30, 2001, the Company and the Operating Partnership had 90,350,510 and 20,382,462 shares of Common Stock and OP Units outstanding, respectively. In addition, the Company had 2,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock and the Operating Partnership had 9,346,033 Preferred Units outstanding.

    The Properties:

    As of June 30, 2001, the Company owns a portfolio of 145 commercial real estate properties (145 and 142 properties at December 31, 2000 and June 30, 2000, respectively) (the "Properties") aggregating over 40.6 million square feet. The properties consist of 137 office properties with

9

---

approximately 33.0 million net rentable square feet (including 13 properties under development expected to contain approximately 5.1 million net rentable square feet) and approximately 6.0 million additional square feet of structured parking for 17,645 vehicles, five industrial properties with approximately 0.6 million net rentable square feet, and three hotels with a total of 1,054 rooms (consisting of approximately 1.0 million square feet). In addition, the Company owns, has under contract, or has an option to acquire 48 parcels of land totaling approximately 556.9 acres, which will support approximately 9.6 million square feet of development.

2.  Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

    The consolidated financial statements of the Company include all the accounts of the Company, its majority-owned Operating Partnership and subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2000.

    The accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited; however, the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting solely of normal recurring matters) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for these interim periods have been included. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be obtained for other interim periods or for the full fiscal year.

    Certain prior-year balances have been reclassified in order to conform to the current-year presentation.

3.  Real Estate Activity During the Quarter Ended June 30, 2001

    On April 25, 2001, the Company closed on the acquisition of the approximately 1.6 million square foot office tower in New York City known as Citigroup Center.

The total acquisition cost of approximately $755 million, was funded through new mortgage financing totaling $525 million, equity contributions of $195 million from Boston Properties and the balance from the third party private real estate investment company. This venture is consolidated as the Company exercises control over the entity that owns the property

    On June 29, 2001, the Company disposed of Maryland Industrial Park, Buildings Two and Three, consisting of two industrial buildings totaling approximately 183,945 square feet, for net proceeds of approximately $7.6 million, resulting in a gain on sale of approximately $1.9 million (net of minority interest share of approximately $0.4 million).

    During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, the Company placed in service two development projects consisting of an approximately 120,000 square foot office building in the Andover Office Park in

10.  Segment Information

    The Company's segments are based on the Company's method of internal reporting which classifies its operations by both geographic area and property type. The Company's segments by geographic area are: Greater Boston, Greater Washington, D.C., Midtown Manhattan, Greater San Francisco, and New Jersey and Pennsylvania. Segments by property type include: Class A Office, Office/Technical, Industrial and Hotels.

    Asset information by segment is not reported since the Company does not use this measure to assess performance, therefore, depreciation and amortization expense is not allocated among segments. Interest income, management and development services, interest expense and general and administrative expenses are not included in net operating income as the internal reporting addresses these on a corporate level.

ITEM 2—Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

    The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. This Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Actual results or developments could differ materially from those projected in such statements as a result of certain factors set forth in the section below entitled "Certain Factors Affecting Future Operating Results" and elsewhere in this report.

    Since January 1, 2000, the Company has increased its in-service portfolio from 136 properties to 145 properties (the "Total Portfolio"). As a result of the growth in the Company's Total Portfolio, the financial data presented below shows significant changes in revenues and expenses from period to period. The Company does not believe that its period-to-period financial data are comparable. Therefore, the comparison of operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 show separately changes attributable to the properties that were owned by the Company for all of each period compared (the "Same Property Portfolio") and the changes attributable to the Total Portfolio.

Results of Operations

Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2001 to the six months ended June 30, 2000.

    The table below reflects selected operating information for the Same Property Portfolio and the Total Portfolio. The Same Property Portfolio consists of the 113 properties acquired or placed in service on or prior to January 1, 2000.

Income before net derivative losses, minority interests and income from unconsolidated joint ventures				$	141,049		$	106,220		$	34,829		32.8	%

    The increase in rental revenues in the Same Property Portfolio is primarily a result of an overall increase in rental rates on new leases and rollovers offset by a small decrease in occupancy. The additional increase in rental revenues for the Total Portfolio is primarily a result of the revenues earned on the properties acquired or placed-in-service after January 1, 2000.

    The increase in development and management services revenue in the Total Portfolio is mainly due to a $0.5 million incentive fee earned during the first quarter of 2001.

    The increase in interest and other revenue in the Total Portfolio is primarily due to an increase in interest earned as a result of higher average cash balances resulting from the remaining proceeds from the public offering in October 2000.

    Property operating expenses (real estate taxes, utilities, repairs and maintenance, cleaning and other property related expenses) in the Same Property Portfolio increased mainly due to increases in real estate taxes and utilities. Additional increases in property operating expenses for the Total Portfolio were mainly due to the properties acquired or placed-in-service after January 1, 2000.

    General and administrative expenses in the Total Portfolio increased due to an overall increase in compensation and $0.7 million of write-offs related to abandoned project costs in the first quarter of 2001.

    Interest expense in the Total Portfolio decreased due to a decrease in weighted average interest rates on the Company's floating rate debt from 8.12% to 7.05%, as well as the decreased use of the Company's unsecured revolving line of credit (the "Unsecured Line of Credit").

    Depreciation and amortization expense for the Same Property Portfolio increased as a result of capital and tenant improvements made since June 30, 2000. Additional increases in depreciation and amortization expense for the Total Portfolio were mainly due to the properties acquired or placed-in-service after January 1, 2000.

    The increase in rental revenues in the Same Property Portfolio is primarily a result of an overall increase in rental rates on new leases and rollovers and an increase in lease termination fees from $0.3 million to $2.5 million offset by a small decrease in occupancy. The additional increase in rental revenues for the Total Portfolio is primarily a result of the properties acquired or placed-in-service after April 1, 2000 offset by a small decrease due to the sale of two properties during the quarter.

    The Company has determined that its estimated cash flows and available sources of liquidity are adequate to meet liquidity needs for the next twelve months. The Company believes that its principal liquidity needs for the next twelve months are to fund normal recurring expenses, debt service requirements, current development costs not covered under construction loans and the minimum distribution required to maintain its REIT qualifications under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Company believes that these needs will be fully funded from cash flows provided by operating and financing activities. The Company's operating properties and hotels require periodic investments of capital for tenant-related capital expenditures and for general capital improvements. For the three months ended June 30, 2001, the Company's recurring capital expenditures totaled $3.4 million, $4.1 million, and $6.0 million for general capital expenditures, hotel capital expenditures, and tenant improvement and leasing commissions, respectively.

    The Company expects to meet its liquidity requirements for periods beyond twelve months for the cost of property developments, property acquisitions, scheduled debt maturities, major renovations, expansions and other non-recurring capital improvements through construction loans, the incurrence of long-term secured and unsecured indebtedness, income from operations and sales of real estate and possibly the issuance of additional common and preferred units of Boston Properties Limited Partnership and/or equity securities of Boston Properties, Inc. In addition, the Company may finance the development, redevelopment or acquisition of additional properties by using the Unsecured Line of Credit.

    The Company has development projects currently in process, which require commitments to fund to completion. Commitments under these arrangements totaled approximately $905.2 million as of June 30, 2001. The Company expects to fund these commitments using available cash, construction loans and the Unsecured Line of Credit. In addition, the Company has options to acquire land that require minimum deposits that the Company will fund using available cash or the Unsecured Line of Credit.

    The Company has investments in securities of approximately $4.3 million at June 30, 2001 related to non-publicly traded companies. These investments have been recorded at cost as they are not considered marketable under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No 115 "Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities" (SFAS 115"). During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, in accordance with SFAS 115, the Company wrote down its remaining investments in securities, as the Company believes the loss in value to be "other than temporary". The loss on investments totaled $6.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2001.

Funds from Operations

    Management believes that Funds from Operations ("FFO") is helpful to investors as a measure of the performance of an equity REIT because, along with cash flows from operating activities, financing activities and investing activities, it provides investors with an understanding of the ability of the Company to incur and service debt, to make capital expenditures and to fund other cash needs. In accordance with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT") revised definition of FFO, the Company calculated FFO by adjusting net income (loss) (computed in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, including non-recurring items), for gains (or losses) from sales of properties (except gains and losses from sales of depreciable operating properties), real estate related depreciation and amortization and unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. The Company's FFO may not be comparable to FFO reported by other REITs that do not define the term in accordance with the current NAREIT definition or that interpret the NAREIT definition differently. FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows or net income (determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States) as a measure of the Company's liquidity or performance, nor is it indicative of funds available to fund the Company's cash needs, including its ability to make cash distributions.

    The following table presents the Company's Funds from Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000:

			Three Months Ended June 30, 2001			Three Months Ended June 30, 2000

Certain Factors Affecting Future Operating Results

    This Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, regarding the Company's business, strategies, revenues, expenditures and operating and capital requirements. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results, performance or achievements of the Company to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements made in this report: general risks affecting the real estate industry (including, without limitation, the inability to enter into or renew leases, dependence on tenants' financial condition, and competition from other developers, owners and operators of real estate); risks associated with the availability and terms of financing and the use of debt to fund acquisitions and developments; failure to manage effectively the Company's growth and expansion into new markets or to integrate acquisitions successfully; risks and uncertainties affecting property development and construction (including, without limitation, construction delays, cost overruns, inability to obtain necessary permits and public opposition to such activities); risks associated with downturns in the national and local economies, increases in interest rates, and volatility in the securities markets; costs of compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act and other similar laws; potential liability for uninsured losses and environmental contamination; risks associated with the Company's potential failure to qualify as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and possible adverse changes in tax and environmental laws; and risks associated with the Company's dependence on key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed.

Inflation

    Substantially all of the office leases provide for separate real estate tax and operating expense escalations over a base amount. In addition, many of the leases provide for fixed base rent increases or indexed increases. The Company believes that inflationary increases may be at least partially offset by the contractual rent increases described above.

ITEM 3—Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

    Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. The primary market risk facing the Company is mortgage debt, which bears interest primarily at fixed rates, and therefore, the fair value of these instruments is affected by changes in the market interest rates. The following table presents principal cash flows based upon maturity dates of the debt obligations and the related weighted average interest rates by expected maturity dates for the fixed rate debt. The interest rate of the variable rate debt as of June 30, 2001 ranged from LIBOR plus 1.00% to LIBO plus 2.00%. At June 30, 2001, the Company was a party to three hedge contracts for a total of $450.0 million and a swap arrangement for $213.0 million. The hedge contracts provide for a fixed interest rate when LIBOR is less than 5.76% and when LIBOR is greater than 6.35% or 7.95% for terms remaining of two to four years. The swap agreement provides for a fixed interest rate of 6.0% through September 11, 2002.
