  • Our performance depends upon the economic conditions, particularly the supply and demand characteristics, of our markets—Boston, Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Seattle and Washington, DC.
  • Market and economic volatility due to adverse economic and political conditions, health crises or dislocations in the credit markets could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and ability to pay dividends and/or distributions.
  • Our success depends on key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed.
  • Risks Related to Real Estate
  • Our performance and value are subject to risks associated with our real estate assets and with the real estate industry.
  • We face potential adverse effects from major clients’ bankruptcies or insolvencies.
  • Our properties face significant competition.
  • We face potential difficulties or delays renewing leases or re-leasing space.

  • Because we own a hotel property, we face the risks associated with the hospitality industry.
  • Failure to comply with Federal Government contractor requirements could result in substantial costs and loss of substantial revenue.
  • Changes in rent control or rent stabilization and eviction laws and regulations in our markets could have a material adverse effect on our residential portfolio’s results of operations and residential property values.
  • We did not obtain new owner’s title insurance policies in connection with properties acquired during BXP’s initial public offering.
  • Some potential losses are not covered by insurance.
  • Actual or threatened terrorist attacks or other criminal acts may adversely affect our ability to generate revenues and the value of our properties.
  • We face risks associated with security breaches, incidents and compromises through cyber-attacks, cyber intrusions or otherwise, as well as other significant disruptions of our information technology (IT) networks and related systems.

  • We may be subject to risks from potential fluctuations in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and the currencies of the other countries in which we invest.
  • Risks Related to Our Indebtedness and Financing
  • Our maturing debt bears interest at lower rates than the current market rates, which has increased, and may continue to increase our interest costs which could adversely impact our ability to refinance existing debt or sell assets on favorable terms or at all.
  • Covenants in our debt agreements could adversely affect our financial condition.
  • We face risks associated with the use of debt to fund acquisitions and developments, including refinancing risk.
  • Our degree of leverage could limit our ability to obtain additional financing or affect the market price of our equity and debt securities.
  • We face risks associated with short-term liquid investments.

  • Stock Ownership Limit
  • BPLP’s Partnership Agreement
  • We may change our policies without obtaining the approval of our stockholders.
