Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Amendment to Senior Unsecured Term Loan

On January 27, 2012, First Potomac Realty Investment Limited Partnership, the operating partnership (the “Operating Partnership”) of First Potomac Realty Trust (the “Company”), and certain of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Borrowers,” and together with the Operating Partnership, the “Borrowers”), entered into Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the Term Loan Agreement, dated as of July 18, 2011 (the “Term Loan Agreement”), by and among the Borrowers, KeyBank National Association, as a lender and administrative agent, and certain other banks and financial institutions from time to time party thereto as lenders. The Amendment increases, from $250 million to $300 million, the total amount to which the term loan may be increased pursuant to the accordion feature of the Term Loan Agreement. Any increase in the total commitment of the term loan remains subject to certain conditions, including obtaining commitments from any one or more lenders, whether or not currently party to the Term Loan Agreement, to provide such additional commitments.

The terms of the Term Loan Agreement, except as described above, remain unchanged.

The Company, as a guarantor under the Term Loan Agreement, executed a consent to the Amendment and a reaffirmation of its guarantee of all of the obligations of the Borrowers under the Term Loan Agreement. In addition, each of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries that currently guarantee, jointly and severally, the obligations of the Borrowers under the Term Loan Agreement executed a consent to the Amendment and a reaffirmation of their guarantees of all of the obligations of the Borrowers under the Term Loan Agreement.

A copy of the Amendment is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.1.
