BOSTON PROPERTIES, INC.
NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
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, 2002, owned an approximate 75.3% 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 at the time of 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 converted 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.
As of June 30, 2002, the Company and the Operating Partnership had 91,545,294 and 20,512,784 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 8,666,264 Preferred Units outstanding.
The Properties:
As of June 30, 2002, the Company owned and had interests in a portfolio of 144 commercial real estate properties (147 and 145 properties at December 31, 2001 and June 30, 2001, respectively) (the "Properties") aggregating over 41.2 million square feet. The properties consist of 136 office properties with approximately 33.6 million net rentable square feet (including nine properties under development expected to contain approximately 3.3 million net rentable square feet) and approximately 6.0 million additional square feet of structured parking for 18,484 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 42 parcels of land totaling approximately 551.0 acres, which will support approximately 8.9 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
6
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, 2001.
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.
In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supersedes FASB SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" and the accounting and reporting provisions for disposals of a segment of a business as addressed in APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of OperationsReporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions". SFAS No. 144 establishes a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale and addresses various implementation issues of SFAS No. 121. In addition, SFAS No. 144 extends the reporting requirements of discontinued operations to include components of an entity that have either been disposed of or are classified as held for sale. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 as of January 1, 2002. The Company's adoption of SFAS No. 144 resulted in the presentation of the net operating results of properties sold during the six months ended June 30, 2002, as income from discontinued operations for all periods presented. SFAS No. 144 also resulted in the presentation of the gain on sale of properties sold during the six months ended June 30, 2002, as gain on sale of real estate from discontinued operations for all periods presented (See Note 3). The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have an impact on net income available to common shareholders. SFAS No. 144 only impacted the presentation of these properties within the consolidated statements of operations.
3. Real Estate Activity During the Six Months Ended June 30, 2002
During the quarter ended June 30, 2002, the Company placed in service the 111 Huntington Avenue development project, consisting of an approximately 859,484 net rentable square foot office tower and approximately 93,582 net rentable square feet of retail space at the Prudential Center in Boston, Massachusetts. During the quarter ended March 31, 2002, the Company placed in service two development projects consisting of Five Times Square, a 1,099,154 net rentable square foot office building in New York City and 7300 Boston Boulevard, a 32,000 net rentable square foot office/technical building in Springfield, Virginia.
On March 4, 2002 the Company disposed of Fullerton Square consisting of two office/technical properties totaling 179,453 net rentable square feet in Springfield, Virginia for net proceeds of approximately $22.2 million, resulting in a gain on sale of approximately $5.8 million (net of minority
7
interest share of approximately $1.3 million). In addition, the Company disposed of 7600, 7700 and 7702 Boston Boulevard consisting of three office/technical properties totaling approximately 195,227 net rentable square feet in Springfield, Virginia. Due to the structure of the transaction and certain continuing involvement provisions related to the three Boston Boulevard properties, that transaction does not qualify as a sale for financial reporting purposes and has been accounted for as a financing transaction. Under the financing method, the cost of real estate and other assets totaling approximately $15.5 million continues to be reflected within the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, the cash received from the buyer totaling approximately $8.1 million has been recorded in other liabilities and notes receivable totaling approximately $18.9 million have not been reflected in the financial statements.

5. Commitments and Contingencies
The Company carries insurance coverage on its properties of types and in amounts that it believes are in line with coverage customarily obtained by owners of similar properties. The Company believes that all of its properties are adequately insured. The property insurance that the Company maintains for its properties has historically been on an "all risk" basis, including losses caused by acts of terrorism. However, following the terrorist activity of September 11, 2001, and in light of the resulting uncertainty in the insurance market, many insurance companies have indicated that they will exclude insurance against acts of terrorism from their "all risk" policies. The Company's "all risk" insurance coverage in place for the current policy year contains specific exclusions for losses attributable to acts of terrorism. In response to recent market conditions, the Company has secured, on a portfolio-wide basis, terrorism insurance in the amount of $250 million on a per occurrence and annual aggregate basis. Higher coverage amounts and coverage for bio-terrorism continue to be unavailable on

commercially reasonable terms or, in some cases, at all. The Company will continue to monitor the state of the insurance market. Further, there are other types of losses, such as from wars or catastrophic acts of nature, for which the Company cannot obtain insurance at all or at a reasonable cost. In the event of an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of its insurance limits, the Company could lose both the revenues generated from the affected property and the capital it has invested in the affected property; depending on the specific circumstances of the affected property it is possible that the Company could be liable for any mortgage indebtedness or other obligations related to the property. Any such loss could materially and adversely affect the Company's business and financial condition and results of operations.
In January 2002, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, IXP, Inc. (IXP) which will act as a captive insurance company to provide earthquake re-insurance coverage for the Company's Greater San Francisco properties. The accounts of IXP are consolidated within the Company. IXP is acting as a reinsurer for the Lexington Insurance Company, rated AAA by Standards & Poors, for losses in excess of $25.0 million and any applicable deductibles, up to a $20.0 million limit. The Company has purchased earthquake insurance with coverage per occurrence and in the aggregate of $115.0 million, including the aforementioned $20.0 million that is reinsured by the Company's IXP subsidiary.
6. Minority Interests
Minority interests in the Company relate to the interest in the Operating Partnership not owned by Boston Properties, Inc. and an interest in a property partnership that is not owned by the Company. As of June 30, 2002, the minority interest in the Operating Partnership consisted of 20,512,784 OP Units and 8,666,264 Preferred Units held by parties other than Boston Properties, Inc.
On May 2, 2002, Boston Properties, Inc., as general partner of the Operating Partnership, determined a distribution on the OP Units in the amount of $0.61 per OP Unit payable on July 30, 2002 to OP Unit holders of record on June 28, 2002.
On May 15, 2002, the Operating Partnership paid a distribution on 2,474,183 Series One Preferred Units at $0.61625 per unit and paid a distribution on the 6,213,131 Series Two and Three Preferred Units of $0.79247 per unit.
7. Redeemable Preferred Stock and Stockholders' Equity
On May 2, 2002, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a second quarter dividend in the amount of $0.61 per share of Common Stock payable on July 30, 2002 to shareholders of record on June 28, 2002.
On May 15, 2002, the Company paid a dividend on the 2,000,000 shares of Series A Convertible Redeemable Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock"), $50 liquidation preference per share, of approximately $0.79247 per share.

On July 9, 2002, a portion of this dividend amount was due and paid to shareholders as a result of the conversion of all of the Preferred Stock into shares of Common Stock. These shares of Preferred Stock are not classified as equity as in certain instances they are convertible into shares of Common Stock at the election of the holder or are redeemable for cash at the election of the holder in six annual tranches commencing on May 12, 2009.

ITEM 2Management'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 the federal securities laws. 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.
Critical Accounting Policies
The SEC published cautionary advice in December 2001 regarding MD&A disclosure of critical accounting policies. In response to that release the Company believes the following critical accounting policies impact the Company's significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of its consolidated financial statements.
Real Estate
Real estate is stated at depreciated cost. The Company periodically reviews its properties to determine if their carrying amounts will be recovered from future operating cash flows. If the Company determines that an impairment has occurred, those assets shall be reduced to fair value. No such impairment losses have been recognized to date.
Investments in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
The Company accounts for its investments in joint ventures, which it does not control, using the equity method of accounting. Under the equity method of accounting, the net equity investment of the Company is reflected on the consolidated balance sheets, and the Company's share of net income or loss from the joint ventures is included on the consolidated statements of operations.
The Company serves as the development manager for the joint ventures currently under development. The profit on development fees received from joint ventures is recognized to the extent attributable to the outside interests in the joint ventures.
Revenue Recognition
Base rental revenue is reported on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Accrued rental income represents rental income earned in excess of rent payments received pursuant to the terms of the individual lease agreements. We maintain an allowance for estimated losses that may result from the inability of our tenants to make required payments.
Property operating cost reimbursements due from tenants for common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other recoverable costs are recognized in the period the expenses are incurred.
Development fees are recognized ratably over the period of development. Management fees are recognized as revenue as they are earned.
The estimated fair value of warrants received in conjunction with communications license agreements are recognized over the ten-year effective terms of the license agreements.
Gains from sales of real estate at the time of sale using the full accrual method, provided that various criteria related to the terms of the transactions and any subsequent involvement by us with the properties sold are met. If the criteria are not met, the Company defers the gains and recognizes them when the criteria are met or using the finance, installment or cost recovery methods, as appropriate under the circumstances
17
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be treated as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1997. As a result, the Company generally will not be subject to federal corporate income tax on its taxable income that is distributed to its stockholders. A REIT is subject to a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its annual taxable income. The Company's policy is to distribute 100% of its taxable income. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Results of Operations
From January 1, 2001 through June 30, 2002, the Company's portfolio decreased from 145 properties to 144 properties (the "Total Portfolio"). As a result of changes in the Company's Total Portfolio, the financial data presented below shows significant changes in revenue 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 six and three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 show separately changes attributable to the properties that were owned by the Company throughout each period compared (the "Same Property Portfolio") and the changes attributable to the Total Portfolio.
Comparison of the six months ended June 30, 2002 to the six months ended June 30, 2001.
The table below reflects selected operating information for the Same Property Portfolio and the Total Portfolio. The Same Property Portfolio consists of the 116 properties acquired or placed in service on or prior to January 1, 2001 and owned by the Company through June 30, 2002.

The increase in rental revenue in the Company's Same Property Portfolio is primarily a result of an overall increase in rental rates on new leases and rollovers for the office portfolio offset by a decrease from period-to-period of approximately $3.8 million in revenue from the three hotel properties. Rental revenue is comprised of base rent, including termination fees, recoveries from tenants, parking and other. Base rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases. Accrued rental income represents the amount by which straight-line rental revenue exceeds rents currently billed in accordance with the lease agreements. Straight-line rent for the six months ended June 30, 2002 was $27.0 million compared to $12.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001. Termination fees decreased from $3.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2001 to $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002. The increase in straight-line rent and rental revenue in the Total Portfolio primarily relates to the acquisition of Citigroup Center and the placing into service of Five Times Square and 111 Huntington Avenue that accounted for approximately $71.1 million of the $82.2 million increase. Additional increases in rental revenue in the Total Portfolio are primarily the result of rental revenues earned on other properties the Company acquired or placed in service after January 1, 2001 or disposed of prior to June 30, 2002.
The decrease in interest and other revenue is a result of less interest earned due to lower average cash balances maintained and lower interest rates on cash balances during the six months ended June 30, 2002 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2001. During the six months ended June 30, 2001, the higher average cash balance was a result of the proceeds remaining from the Company's public offering in October 2000.
Property operating expenses (real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, repairs and maintenance, cleaning and other property-related expenses) in our Same Property Portfolio increased mainly due to increases in real estate taxes of $2.5 million, or 4.5%, and an increase in insurance of $2.1 million, or 67.4%. The office leases include reimbursement for a portion of these operating expenses. The increase in insurance is primarily due to higher rates resulting from the events surrounding September 11, 2001. The increase in real estate taxes was primarily due to higher property tax assessments. Small increases in the other property operating expenses account for the remaining difference. Additional increases in property operating expenses in our Total Portfolio were due to the additions of the Citigroup Center, Five Times Square and 111 Huntington Avenue properties and other properties that we acquired or placed in service after January 1, 2001 or properties disposed of prior to June 30, 2002.
19
General and administrative expenses in the Total Portfolio increased by $4.8 million of which $2.8 million related to the write-off of unrecoverable leasing commissions related to the Company's termination of the lease with Arthur Andersen for 620,947 square feet at the Times Square Tower development project. The remaining increase related primarily to increases in compensation expense.
Interest expense for our Total Portfolio increased primarily as a result of placing into service the Five Times Square and 111 Huntington Avenue properties and new mortgage debt incurred related to the acquisition of Citigroup Center. Our total debt outstanding at June 30, 2002 was approximately $4.4 billion, compared to $4.2 billion at June 30, 2001. The increase in new mortgage debt was partially offset by a decrease in the Company's weighted-average interest rates over the year from 7.04% at June 30, 2001 to 6.48% at June 30, 2002.
Costs directly related to the development of rental properties are capitalized. Capitalized development costs include interest, wages, property taxes, insurance and other project costs incurred during the period of development. Capitalized wages for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 were $2.5 million and $3.6 million, respectively. These costs are not included in the general and administrative expenses discussed above. Interest capitalized for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 was $13.1 million and $31.9 million, respectively. These costs are not included in the interest expense discussed above.
Depreciation and amortization expense for the Same Property Portfolio increased as a result of capital and tenant improvements made after June 30, 2001. Additional increases in depreciation and amortization expense in our Total Portfolio were due to the additions of the Citigroup Center, Five Times Square and 111 Huntington Avenue properties and other properties that we acquired or placed in service after January 1, 2001 or properties disposed of prior to June 30, 2002.
The gain on sale for the six months ended June 30, 2002 is a result of the disposition of Fullerton Square, consisting of two office/technical properties totaling 179,453 square feet in Springfield, Virginia for net proceeds of approximately $22.2 million. This resulted in a gain on sale of approximately $5.8 million (net of minority interest share of approximately $1.3 million). The gain on sale for the six months ended June 30, 2001 is a result of the disposition of 25-33 Dartmouth Street in Westwood, Massachusetts, an industrial building totaling approximately 78,000 square feet and Maryland Industrial Park, Buildings Two and Three in Landover, Maryland, consisting of two industrial buildings totaling 183,945 square feet. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $14.2 million, resulting in a gain on sale of approximately $6.5 million (net of minority interest share of approximately $1.6 million).

The increase in rental revenue in the Company's Same Property Portfolio is primarily a result of an overall increase in rental rates on new leases and rollovers for the office portfolio offset by a decrease from period-to-period of approximately $1.5 million in revenue from the three hotel properties. Rental revenue is comprised of base rent, including termination fees, recoveries from tenants, parking and other. Base rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of
21
the respective leases. Accrued rental income represents the amount by which straight-line rental revenue exceeds rents currently billed in accordance with the lease agreements. Straight line rent for the quarter ended June 30, 2002 was $12.2 million compared to $6.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2001. Termination fees decreased from $2.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2001 to $1.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2002. The occupancy for the Same Property Portfolio decreased from 97.7% as of June 30, 2001 to 95.0% as of June 30, 2002. The increase in straight-line rent and rental revenue in the Total Portfolio primarily relates to the acquisition of Citigroup Center and the placing into service of Five Times Square and 111 Huntington Avenue that accounted for approximately $32.2 million of the $37.7 million increase. Additional increases in rental revenue in the Total Portfolio are primarily the result of rental revenues earned on other properties the Company acquired or placed in service after July 1, 2001 or disposed of prior to June 30, 2002 offset by a decrease in overall occupancy from 97.0% to 95.3%.
The decrease in development and management services revenue is mainly due to the completion of certain development and management services contracts during 2002.
The decrease in interest and other revenue is a result of less interest earned due to lower average cash balances maintained and lower interest rates on cash balances during the quarter ended June 30, 2002 as compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2001. During the quarter ended June 30, 2001, the higher average cash balance was a result of the proceeds remaining from the Company's public offering in October 2000.
Property operating expenses (real estate taxes, utilities, insurance, repairs and maintenance, cleaning and other property-related expenses) in our Same Property Portfolio increased mainly due to increases in real estate taxes of $1.4 million, or 5.1%. The office leases include reimbursement for a portion of these operating expenses. The increase in real estate taxes was primarily due to higher property tax assessments. Small increases in the other property operating expenses account for the remaining difference. Additional increases in property operating expenses in our Total Portfolio were due to the additions of the Citigroup Center, Five Times Square and 111 Huntington Avenue properties and other properties that we acquired or placed in service after July 1, 2001 or properties disposed of prior to June 30, 2002.
General and administrative expenses in the Total Portfolio increased by $3.7 million of which $2.8 million related to the write-off of unrecoverable leasing commissions related to the Company's termination of the lease with Arthur Andersen for 620,947 square feet at the Times Square Tower development project. The remaining increase related primarily to increases in compensation expense.
Interest expense for our Total Portfolio increased primarily as a result of placing into service the Five Times Square and 111 Huntington Avenue properties and new mortgage debt incurred related to the acquisition of Citigroup Center. Our total debt outstanding at June 30, 2002 was approximately $4.4 billion, compared to $4.2 billion at June 30, 2001. The increase in new mortgage debt was partially offset by a decrease in the Company's weighted-average interest rates over the year from 7.04% at June 30, 2001 to 6.48% at June 30, 2002.

Capitalized development costs include interest, wages, property taxes, insurance and other project costs incurred during the period of development. Capitalized wages for the quarters ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 were $1.2 million and $1.9 million, respectively. These costs are not included in the general and administrative expenses discussed above. Interest capitalized for the quarters ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 was $5.3 million and $15.8 million, respectively. These costs are not included in the interest expense discussed above.
Depreciation and amortization expense for the Same Property Portfolio increased as a result of capital and tenant improvements made after June 30, 2001. Additional increases in depreciation and
22
amortization expense in our Total Portfolio were due to the additions of the Citigroup Center, Five Times Square and 111 Huntington Avenue properties and other properties that we acquired or placed in service after July 1, 2001, or properties disposed of prior to June 30, 2002.
The gain on sale for the three months ended June 30, 2001 is a result of the disposition of Maryland Industrial Park, Buildings Two and Three in Landover, Maryland, consisting of two industrial buildings totaling 183,945 square feet. The Company received 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).
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's consolidated indebtedness at June 30, 2002 was approximately $4.4 billion and bore interest at a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 6.48% per annum. Based on the Company's total market capitalization at June 30, 2002 of approximately $9.4 billion, the Company's consolidated debt represents 46.9% of its total market capitalization.
The Company has a $605.0 million unsecured revolving line of credit (the "Unsecured Line of Credit") with Fleet Bank, as agent. The Company uses its Unsecured Line of Credit principally to facilitate its development and acquisition activities and for working capital purposes. As of August 12, 2002, the Company had $12.0 million outstanding under its Unsecured Line of Credit.

Joint Ventures
The Company has investments in eight unconsolidated joint ventures with ownership ranging from 25-51%.

General
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 six-months ended June 30, 2002, the Company's capital expenditures were comprised of:
Recurring capital expenditures | $ | 6,499 | ||
Planned non-recurring capital expenditures associated with acquisition properties | 18,732 | |||
Hotel improvements, equipment upgrades and replacements | 2,636 | |||
Company's share of joint venture additions included in above | (523 | ) | ||
Development in process and tenant improvements | 173,365 | |||
Acquisitions/additions to real estate | $ | 200,709 | ||
The Company has three construction loans maturing during 2002. The Company has extension options on these three loans. The Company expects to repay one of these loans totaling approximately $25.5 million using its Unsecured Line of Credit. The Company may exercise its extension options on the other two construction loans, repay these loans using unsecured indebtedness or may obtain long term secured permanent financing. The properties securing these loans are in excess of 95% leased.
The Company expects to meet liquidity requirements for periods beyond twelve months for the costs of development, 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 equity securities of Boston Properties, Inc. In addition, the Company may finance the development, redevelopment or acquisition of additional properties by using the unsecured revolving line of credit.
The Company has construction projects in process, which require commitments to fund to completion. Equity commitments under these arrangements totaled approximately $189.1 million as of June 30, 2002. In addition, the Company has options to acquire land that requires minimum deposits that the Company will fund using available cash or its Unsecured Line of Credit.
Based on leases in place at June 30, 2002, leases with respect to 1.70% of the Company's in-service Class A office space will expire in the remaining two quarters of 2002. While the Company is working to retain its current tenants in situations that are beneficial to them, conditions over the past year, including more sublet space available and decreasing rental rates across the board, make it difficult to predict what future changes may be and how they will effect the Company's re-leasing efforts.
During the second quarter of 2002, Boston Properties terminated its lease with Arthur Andersen LLP for 620,947 square feet at Times Square Tower. Upon signing the lease on December 1, 2000, Boston Properties paid Insignia $5.64 million of the $17.3 million in leasing commissions associated with the transaction. In connection with the lease termination, Insignia agreed to return half of the
26
$5.64 million previously paid, leaving a balance of 2.82 million, which was written-off and included in general and administrative expenses.
Mr. Turchin, a director of Boston Properties, is a non-executive/non-director Vice Chairman of Insignia. Through an arrangement with Insignia that has been in place since 1985, Turchin & Associates, an affiliate of Mr. Turchin, participates in brokerage activities for Insignia, some of which involve leases for space within buildings owned by Boston Properties. Of the $2.82 million of leasing commissions paid to Insignia by Boston Properties in connection with the Arthur Andersen lease, Turchin & Associates or its affiliates (collectively, "Turchin & Associates") received $382,627, according to information provided by Turchin & Associates. Mr Turchin did not participate in any discussions or other activities between Insignia and Boston Properties concerning the return by Insignia of $2.82 million in connection with the termination of the Arthur Andersen lease.
During the period from the date Mr. Turchin became a member of the Board of Directors of Boston Properties in 1997 through June 30, 2002, Turchin & Associates has advised the Company that it has received $2,343,222 from Insignia (excluding any amounts earned or paid in connection with the Arthur Andersen lease) attributable to properties owned by Boston Properties. Of this amount, $707,155 (or approximately 30%) represents an obligation assumed by Boston Properties in connection with the acquisition of 280 Park Avenue. The total amount that was paid to Turchin & Associates, excluding amounts paid related to obligations assumed in connection with the acquisition of 280 Park Avenue, represents approximately 4.83% of the total amount paid to Insignia by Boston Properties since the date Mr. Turchin became a director of the Company in 1997. Pursuant to its arrangement with Insignia, Turchin & Associates has confirmed to the Company that it is paid on the same basis with respect to properties owned by Boston Properties as it is with respect to properties owned by other clients of Insignia. As with the Arthur Andersen lease termination, Mr. Turchin does not participate in any discussions or other activities relating to Boston Properties' contractual arrangements with Insignia.
Insurance
The Company carries insurance coverage on its properties of types and in amounts that it believes are in line with coverage customarily obtained by owners of similar properties. The Company believes that all of its properties are adequately insured. The property insurance that the Company maintains for its properties has historically been on an "all risk" basis, including losses caused by acts of terrorism. However, following the terrorist activity of September 11, 2001, and in light of the resulting uncertainty in the insurance market, many insurance companies have indicated that they will exclude insurance against acts of terrorism from their "all risk" policies. The Company's "all risk" insurance coverage in place for the current policy year contains specific exclusions for losses attributable to acts of terrorism. In response to recent market conditions, the Company has secured, on a portfolio-wide basis, terrorism insurance in the amount of $250 million on a per occurrence and annual aggregate basis. Higher coverage amounts and coverage for bio-terrorism continue to be unavailable on commercially reasonable terms or, in some cases, at all. The Company will continue to monitor the state of the insurance market. Further, there are other types of losses, such as from wars or catastrophic acts of nature, for which the Company cannot obtain insurance at all or at a reasonable cost. In the event of an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of its insurance limits, the Company could lose both the revenues generated from the affected property and the capital it has invested in the affected property; depending on the specific circumstances of the affected property it is possible that the Company could be liable for any mortgage indebtedness or other obligations related to the property. Any such loss could materially and adversely affect the Company's business and financial condition and results of operations.
In January 2002, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, IXP, Inc. (IXP) which will act as a captive insurance company to provide earthquake re-insurance coverage for the Company's Greater
27
San Francisco properties. The accounts of IXP are consolidated within the Company. IXP is acting as a reinsurer for the Lexington Insurance Company, rated AAA by Standards & Poors, for losses in excess of $25.0 million and any applicable deductibles, up to a $20.0 million limit. The Company has purchased earthquake insurance with coverage per occurrence and in the aggregate of $115.0 million, including the aforementioned $20.0 million that is reinsured by the Company's IXP subsidiary.
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 calculates 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 debt restructuring and 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 net income (determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States) 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 cash distributions.
The following table presents the Company's Funds from Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001:

Newly Issued Accounting Standards
In October 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" which addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS No. 144 supersedes FASB SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of" and the accounting and reporting provisions for disposals of a segment of a business as addressed in APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Results of OperationsReporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions". SFAS No. 144 establishes a single accounting model for long-lived assets to be disposed of by sale and addresses various implementation issues of SFAS No. 121. In addition, SFAS No. 144 extends the reporting requirements of discontinued operations to include components of an entity that have either been disposed of or are classified as held for sale. The Company adopted SFAS No. 144 as of January 1, 2002. The Company's adoption of SFAS No. 144 resulted in the presentation of the net operating results of properties sold during the six months ended June 30, 2002, as income from discontinued operations for all periods presented. SFAS No. 144 also resulted in the presentation of the gain on sale of properties sold during the six months ended June 30, 2002, as gain on sale of real estate from discontinued operations for all periods presented. The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have an impact on net income available to common shareholders. SFAS No. 144 only impacted the presentation of these held for sale properties within the consolidated statements of operations.
In April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections". This Statement rescinds FASB Statement No. 4, FASB Statement No. 64 and FASB Statement No. 44. This Statement amends FASB Statement No. 13, "Accounting for Leases", to eliminate an inconsistency between the required accounting for sale-leaseback transactions and the required accounting for certain lease modifications that have economic effects that are similar to sale-leaseback transactions. This Statement also amends other existing authoritative pronouncements to make various technical corrections, clarify meanings, or describe their applicability under changed conditions.
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities". This Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 94-3,
29
"Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)."
The Company does not believe that the implementation of SFAS No. 145 and SFAS No. 146 will have a material adverse effect on liquidity, financial position or results of operations.
Certain Factors Affecting Future Operating Results
This Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, 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.
ITEM 3Quantitative 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 (in thousands) 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, 2002 ranged from LIBOR plus 1.40% to LIBOR plus 2.00%. At June 30, 2002, the Company had hedge contracts totaling $150.0 million. The hedge contracts provide for a fixed interest rate when LIBOR is less than 5.80% and when LIBOR is between 6.70% and 9.00% for terms ranging from three to five years per the individual hedging agreements.
