                       REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of
Boston Properties, Inc.:
 
  We have audited the accompanying statement of revenue over certain operating
expenses of 100 East Pratt Street in Baltimore, Maryland (the "Property") for
the year ended December 31, 1996. This statement is the responsibility of the
Property's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this
statement based on our audit.
 
  We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the statement of revenue over
certain operating expenses is free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the statement. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
  The accompanying statement of revenue over certain operating expenses was
prepared for the purpose of complying with Rule 3-14 of the Securities and
Exchange Commission, and excludes certain expenses described in Note 2, and
therefore is not intended to be a complete presentation of the Property's
revenue and expenses.
 
  In our opinion, the statement referred to above presents fairly, in all
material respects, the revenue over certain operating expenses (as described
in Note 2) of 100 East Pratt Street for the year ended December 31, 1996 in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of the statement. F-3 100 EAST PRATT STREET NOTES TO STATEMENT OF REVENUE OVER CERTAIN OPERATING EXPENSES (DOLLARS IN THOUSANDS) 1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY The accompanying statement of revenue over certain operating expenses (the "Statement") includes the operations of 100 East Pratt Street, an approximately 633,000 square foot office building located on the inner harbor in downtown Baltimore, Maryland. The Property was acquired on October 23, 1997 from an unrelated third party. 2. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING The accompanying statement of revenue over certain operating expenses is presented on the accrual basis. This statement has been prepared in accordance with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission for real estate properties acquired or to be acquired. Accordingly, this statement excludes certain historical income and expenses not comparable to the operations of the property after acquisition, such as interest income, depreciation, amortization, and interest expense. 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Rental Revenue Rental income is recognized on the straight-line method over the terms of the related leases. The excess of recognized rentals over amounts due pursuant to lease terms is recorded as accrued rent. The impact of the straight-line rent adjustment increases revenue by approximately $361 and decreases revenue by approximately $318 for the year ended December 31, 1996 and for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 (unaudited), respectively. Unaudited Interim Information The combined statement revenue over certain operating expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1997 is unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of such statement have been included. The results of operations for the period are not necessarily indicative of the Property's future results of operations. Risks and Uncertainties The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 4. DESCRIPTION OF LEASING ARRANGEMENTS The commercial and office space is leased to tenants under leases with terms that vary in length. Certain of the leases contain real estate tax reimbursement clauses, operating expense reimbursement clauses and renewal options. Minimum lease payments to be received during the next five years for noncancelable operating leases in effect at December 31, 1996 are approximately as follows:

As of December 31, 1996, two tenants occupied approximately 42% of the leasable square feet and represented approximately 48% of total 1996 Base Rent.

The Property will be acquired by Boston Properties, Inc. from an unrelated third party. 2. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING The accompanying Statement has been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. The Statement has been prepared in accordance with Rule 3-14 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission for real estate properties acquired or to be acquired. Accordingly, this statement excludes certain historical expenses not comparable to the operations of the Property after acquisition such as amortization, depreciation, property management fees, certain bad debts, corporate expenses and certain other costs not directly related to the future operations of the Property. 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Rental Revenue Rental income is recognized on the straight-line method over the terms of the related leases. The excess of recognized rentals over amounts due pursuant to lease terms is recorded as accrued rent. The impact of the straight-line rent adjustment increased revenue by approximately $621 and $143 for the year ended December 31, 1996, and the nine months ended September 30, 1997 (unaudited), respectively.

PENDING ACQUISITION ------------------- Riverfront Plaza (/3/)............................................. 174,361 -------- Total Acquisition Properties................................... $521,377 ========
-------- (/1/) The acquisition of 100 East Pratt Street was funded by a draw-down of $137,500 from the Unsecured Line of Credit and the issuance of 500 shares of common stock (valued at approximately $16, based on a value of $32.00 per share). (/2/) The acquisition of 875 Third Avenue was funded by the assumption of a $180,000 mortgage note, payment of $1,500 in cash and the issuance of 890,869 Operating Partnership Units (the "OP Units"). To the extent that, for the ten trading days through and including December 31, 1998 the average daily closing price on the New York Stock Exchange of shares of common stock is less than $31.43 per share (such average, the "Share Average"), the Operating Partnership shall issue to the contributor of 875 Third Avenue a number of additional OP Units (the "Additional OP Units") such that the product of (x) the Share Average, multiplied by (y) the sum of $890,869 plus the Additional OP Units, equals $28,000. Consequently, for accounting purposes, the OP Units were valued at approximately $28,000, based on a value of $31.43 per unit.
