The Reporting Person has opted to include in this report his beneficial ownership of Common Units even though ownership of such units does not constitute beneficial ownership of Common Stock under Rule 13d-3 because, pursuant to section 8.6 of the limited partnership agreement of Boston Properties Limited Partnership, the holder of the Common Units does not have the right to require Boston Properties, Inc. to exchange the Common Units for shares of Common Stock. 5 SIGNATURE After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
