Boston Properties, Inc., and
Boston Properties Predecessor Group
Notes to Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION
-------------
Boston Properties, Inc. (the "Company") was formed under the laws of the
State of Delaware on June 23, 1997, to be 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 March 31, 1998, through its ownership of 61,694,041
units of partnership interest ("OP Units"), owned an approximately 77.0%
general and limited partnership interest in the Operating Partnership.
The Company has been formed to succeed to substantially all of the interests
of Boston Properties, Inc. and its affiliates (the "Predecessor Group") in
(i) a portfolio of office, industrial and hotel properties and (ii) the
acquisition, property management, leasing, development and construction
businesses of the Predecessor Group and its affiliates. The acquisition,
property management, leasing, development and construction businesses are
being carried out by the Operating Partnership and the Company's majority-
owned affiliate, Boston Properties Management, Inc.
On June 23, 1997, the Company commenced operations after completing an
initial public offering (the "Initial Offering") of 36,110,000 common shares
(including 4,710,000 shares issued as a result of the exercise of an over-
allotment option by the underwriters). The 36,110,000 shares of common stock
were issued at a price per share of $25.00, generating gross proceeds of
$902.8 million. The proceeds to the Company, net of underwriters' discount
and offering costs were approximately $839.2 million.
The Company currently owns a portfolio of 95 commercial real estate
properties (94 and 82 properties at March 31, 1998 and December 31, 1997,
respectively) (the "Properties") aggregating approximately 18.8 million
square feet (including nine properties currently under development). The
Properties consist of 82 office properties, including 51 Class A office
buildings and 31 R&D properties; nine industrial properties; three hotels;
and one parking garage. The Company considers Class A office buildings to be
centrally located buildings that are professionally managed and maintained,
attract high-quality tenants and command upper-tier rental rates, and that
are modern structures or have been modernized to compete with newer
buildings.
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 its
subsidiaries. The financial statements reflect the properties acquired at
their historical accounting basis to the extent of the acquisition of
interests from the Predecessor's owners who continued as investors. The
remaining interests acquired for cash from those owners of the Predecessor
who decided to sell their interests have been accounted for as a purchase and
the excess of the purchase price over the related historical cost basis was
allocated to real estate. The combined financial statements of the Boston
Properties Predecessor Group include interests in properties and the third
party commercial real estate development, project management and property
management business of Boston Properties, Inc. The accompanying combined
financial statements for the Boston Properties Predecessor Group have been
presented on a combined basis due to the common ownership and management;
therefore, its combined financial statements are presented for comparative
purposes. 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, 1997.
The accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited; however, the
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles 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 generally
accepted accounting principles 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.
3. REAL ESTATE ACQUISITIONS DURING THE QUARTER ENDED MARCH 31, 1998
----------------------------------------------------------------
On January 22, 1998, the Company acquired Riverfront Plaza, a Class A office
building located in Richmond, Virginia. The 899,720 square foot property was
acquired for approximately $174.4 million (including closing costs). The
acquisition was funded by a $52.6 million draw down of the Unsecured Line of
Credit and new mortgage financing of $121.8 million.
On February 2, 1998, the Company acquired the Mulligan/Griffin Portfolio for
approximately $257.8 million (including closing costs). The portfolio
consists of nine office properties with approximately 1.3 million net
rentable square feet and six parcels of land aggregating 30.7 acres located
in Fairfax County, Virginia and Montgomery County, Maryland. The acquisition
was funded through the payment of approximately $88.5 million in cash, the
assumption of

Maryland for approximately $11.5 million. This land can support 850,000
square feet of development.
4. UNSECURED LINE OF CREDIT
-------------------------
On March 31, 1998, the Company amended its Unsecured Line of Credit
agreement, increasing the borrowing capacity from $300 million to $500
million. The Unsecured Line of Credit at the Company's election, bears
interest at either a floating rate based on a spread over LIBOR ranging from
90 basis points to 120 basis points (depending upon the Company's applicable
leverage ratio), or the Line of Credit Bank's prime rate. The Company's
ability to borrow under the Unsecured Line of Credit is subject to the
Company's ongoing compliance with a number of financial and other covenants,
including, but not limited to, maintaining a certain ratio of secured
indebtedness to total asset value, as defined. The Unsecured Line of Credit
expires on June 23, 2000.
5. MINORITY INTEREST IN OPERATING PARTNERSHIP
------------------------------------------
On February 2, 1998, the Operating Partnership issued 1,471,456 OP Units,
valued at approximately $50 million, in connection with the acquisition of
the Mulligan/Griffin portfolio.

Operating Partnership that is not owned by the Company, which at March 31,
1998, amounted to approximately 23.0%.
6. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY
--------------------
On January 26, 1998, the Company completed a public stock offering and sold
23,000,000 common shares at a price of $35.125 per share (including 3,000,000
shares related to the exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment options).
Net proceeds were approximately $765.7 million.
7. STOCK OPTION AND INCENTIVE PLAN

At the completion of the Initial Offering, the Company granted 2,290,000
(41,400 have since been cancelled) options to purchase common shares with an
exercise price of $25.00 per share.

price of $34.375 per share, which options vest in five equal annual
installments. The other options granted vest in three equal annual
installments from their date of grant.
As of March 31, 1998, the Company had outstanding 5,607,163 options to
purchase common shares and an additional 2,004,505 common shares were

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.
OVERVIEW
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations include certain forward-looking statements about the Company's
business, revenues, expenditures and operating and capital requirements. In
addition, forward-looking statements may be included in various other Company
documents to be issued in the future and in various oral statements by Company
representatives to security analysts and investors from time to time. Any such
statements are subject to risks that could cause the actual results to
vary materially. The risks and uncertainties associated with the forward-
looking information include the strength of the commercial office and industrial
real estate markets in which the Company operates, competitive market
conditions, general economic growth, interest rates and capital market
conditions. The Company discusses such risks in detail in its prospectus dated
January 26, 1998 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
COMPARISON OF THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH
31, 1997.
The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 1997 represent
solely the operating results of the Predecessor Group. Consequently, the
comparisons of the periods provide only limited information regarding the
operations of the Company.
Rental revenue increased $41.5 million or 85.7% to $89.9 million from $48.4
million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the three months
ended March 31, 1997. The increase is due to rental revenue earned on the
properties acquired since the Initial Offering and rental revenue from the
participating leases with ZL Hotel LLC to operate the hotels.
Hotel operating revenue decreased $12.8 million or 100% to $0.0 from $12.8
million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the three months
ended March 31, 1997. Hotel revenue for the three months ended March 31, 1998
does not include any revenue as a result of the Operating Partnership entering
into participating leases with ZL Hotel LLC to operate the hotels.
Interest and other revenue increased $3.4 million or 775.9% to $3.9 million from
$0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the three
months ended March 31, 1997 due to interest income earned on the proceeds from
the Second Offering.
Property expenses increased $12.5 million or 89.4% to $26.5 million from $14.0
million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the three months
ended March 31, 1997 primarily as a result of property acquisitions.
Hotel operating expenses decreased $10.0 million or 100% to $0.0 from $10.0
million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the three months
ended March 31, 1997. There were no expenses during the three months ended
March 31, 1998 as a result of the participating leases.
General and administrative expenses increased $2.2 million or 80.8% to $4.8
million from $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to
the three months ended March 31, 1997 primarily as a result of increased payroll
costs associated with new acquisitions and costs associated with being a public
company.
Interest expense decreased $2.8 million or 10.1% to $24.9 million from $27.7
million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 compared to the three months
ended March 31, 1997. This decrease is a result of the payoff of certain
mortgage indebtedness with the proceeds from the Initial Offering offset by
increases in mortgage indebtedness from property acquisitions.
Depreciation and amortization expense increased $4.3 million or 48.9% to $13.1
from $8.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 1998 and March 31, 1997.
This increase is attributed to the property acquisitions since the Initial
Offering.
As a result of the foregoing, net income before minority interests increased
$26.0 million to $26.2 million from $0.2 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1998 compared to the three months ended March 31, 1997.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Upon completion of the Second Offering, the Company received approximately
$765.7 million in net proceeds. The Company used these funds as follows: (i)
$300.0 million to repay the balance on the Unsecured Line of Credit; (ii)
approximately $88.5 million for the acquisition of the Mulligan/Griffin
Portfolio and; (iii) approximately $377.2 million which was used to fund working
capital and which will be available to fund future acquisitions and development.

Boston Properties, Inc., and
Boston Properties Predecessor Group
On March 31, 1998, the Company amended its Unsecured Line of Credit agreement,
increasing the borrowing capacity from $300 million to $500 million. The
Unsecured Line of Credit at the Company's election, bears interest at either a
floating rate based on a spread over LIBOR ranging from 90 basis points to 120
basis points (depending upon the Company's applicable leverage ratio), or the
Line of Credit Bank's prime rate. The Company's ability to borrow under the
Unsecured Line of Credit is subject to the Company's ongoing compliance with a
number of financial and other covenants, including, but not limited to,
maintaining a certain ratio of secured indebtedness to total asset value, as
defined. The Unsecured Line of Credit expires on June 23, 2000.
The Company's consolidated indebtedness at March 31, 1998 was $1.3 billion at a
weighted average interest rate of 7.5%. Based on the Company's total market
capitalization at March 31, 1998 of approximately $4.2 billion, the Company's
consolidated debt represents 32.2% of its total market capitalization.
The following represents the outstanding principal balances due under the first

The Company expects to meet its short-term liquidity requirements generally
through its available cash and net cash provided by operations. 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 March 31, 1998, the Company's recurring capital
expenditures totaled $560,000.
The Company expects to meet its long-term requirements for the funding of
property development, property acquisitions and other non-recurring capital
improvements through long-term secured and unsecured indebtedness (including the
Unsecured Line of Credit) and the issuance of additional equity securities of
the Company.
The Company has development projects currently in process, which require
commitments to fund to completion. Commitments under these arrangements totaled
$209.5 million as of March 31, 1998. The Company expects to fund these
commitments using available cash or 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.
FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS
Management believes Funds from Operations 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 and make capital expenditures. The Company computes Funds from
Operations in accordance with standards established by the White Paper on Funds
from Operations approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT in 1995, which may
differ from the methodology for calculating Funds from Operations utilized by
other equity REITs, and accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.
The White Paper defines Funds from Operations as net income (loss) (computed in
accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from debt restructuring and
sales of property, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization and
after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Further,
Funds from Operations does not represent amounts available for management's
discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt
service obligations, or other commitments and uncertainties. Funds from
Operations should not be considered as an alternative to net income (determined
in accordance with GAAP) as an indication of the Company's financial performance
or to cash flows from operating activities (determined in accordance with GAAP)
as a measure of the Company's liquidity, nor is it indicative of funds available
to fund the Company's cash needs, including its ability to make distributions.
The Company believes that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of the
combined historical operating results of the Boston Properties Predecessor Group
and the Company, Funds from Operations should be examined in conjunction with
net income as presented in the consolidated and combined financial statements.
The following table presents the Company's Funds from Operations for the three
months ended March 31, 1998:
Three months ended

INFLATION
The majority of the Company's tenant leases require tenants to pay most
operating expenses, including real estate taxes and insurance, and increases in
common area maintenance expenses, which reduces the Company's exposure to
increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.
