A registration statement on Form S-3 with respect to, among other securities, the Shares, including a form of prospectus, will be prepared by the Company in conformity with the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations and will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”).

Such registration statement, as it may hereafter be amended, is referred to herein as the “Registration Statement,” and the final form of prospectus included in the Registration Statement for purposes of offers and sales of the Shares contemplated herein, as amended or supplemented from time to time, is referred to herein as the “Prospectus.” Any reference herein to the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated (or deemed to be incorporated) by reference therein, and any reference herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Registration Statement or Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the filing after the execution hereof of any document with the Commission deemed to be incorporated by reference therein.

		(c) Except as contemplated in the Prospectus, subsequent to the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus, there shall not have been any material adverse change in the shares of beneficial interest of the Company, or any material adverse change, or any development that may reasonably be expected to cause a material adverse change, in the condition (financial or other), business, net worth or results of operations of the Company, or any adverse change in the rating assigned to any securities of the Company.


		(d) (1) The Sales Manager shall have received at the date of the first sale of Shares hereunder (the “Commencement Date”) and at every other date specified in Section 3.1(n) above, opinions of Company Counsel, dated as of the Commencement Date and dated as of such other date, in the form of Schedule A hereto.

		(2) The Sales Manager shall have received a letter from Company Counsel authorizing the Sales Manager to rely on the opinion on tax matters delivered by Company Counsel as Exhibit 8.1 to the Registration Statement.

(f) The Sales Manager shall have received from the Company a certificate, or certificates, signed by the Chief Financial Officer and President or Chief Executive Officer or any Vice President of the Company, dated as of the Commencement Date and (unless the Company is not then selling Shares through the Sales Manager and has not requested the Sales Manager to sell Shares) dated as of the first business day of each calendar month thereafter (each a “Certificate Date”), to the effect that, to the best of their knowledge based upon reasonable investigation:


		(i) The representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement are true and correct, as if made at and as of the Commencement Date or the Certificate Date (as the case may be), and the Company has complied with all the agreements and satisfied all the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied at or prior to the Commencement Date and each such Certificate Date (as the case may be);


		(ii) No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued, and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or, to the knowledge of such officer after due inquiry, is threatened, by the Commission;

		(iv) Since the date of this Agreement, there has not been any material adverse change in the assets or properties, business, results of operations, or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company, which has not been described in an amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus (directly or by incorporation).

ARTICLE V.

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION


	5.1 (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Sales Manager and each person, if any, who controls the Sales Manager within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, as follows:

(i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the representations in this Agreement or contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;


		(ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company; and


		(iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including, subject to Section 5.1(c) below, the reasonable fees and disbursements of legal counsel chosen by the Sales Manager), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above;

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Sales Manager expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto).

(b) The Sales Manager agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its trustees and each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in Section 5.1(a) above, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendments thereto) or any preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Sales Manager expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or such preliminary prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto). The total liability of the Sales Manager under this Section 5.1(b) shall not exceed the total actual sales price of Shares sold by the Sales Manager that is the subject of the dispute.

(c) Any indemnified party that proposes to assert the right to be indemnified under this Article V will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim is to be made against an indemnifying party or parties under this Article V, notify each such indemnifying party of the commencement of such action, enclosing a copy of all papers served, but the omission so to notify such indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it might have to any indemnified party to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof. If any such action is brought against any indemnified party and it notifies the indemnifying party of its commencement, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in and, to the extent that it elects by delivering written notice to the indemnified party promptly after receiving notice of the commencement of the action from the indemnified party, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense of the action, with legal counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense, the indemnifying party will not be liable to the indemnified party for any legal or other expenses except as provided below. The indemnified party will have the right to employ its own legal counsel in any such action, but the fees, expenses and other charges of such legal counsel will be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (1) the employment of legal counsel by the indemnified party has been authorized in writing by the indemnifying party, (2) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on the written advice of legal counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (3) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on the written advice of legal counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party) or (4) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed legal counsel to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of legal counsel will be at the expense of the indemnifying party or parties. It is understood that the indemnifying party or parties shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of more than one separate firm admitted to practice in such jurisdiction at any one time for all such indemnified party or parties. All such fees, disbursements and other charges will be reimbursed by the indemnifying party promptly as they are incurred. An indemnifying party will not be liable for any settlement of any action or claim effected without its written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld).

(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnification provided for in the foregoing paragraphs of this Article V is applicable in accordance with its terms but for any reason is held to be unavailable from the Company or the Sales Manager, the Company and the Sales Manager will contribute to the total losses, claims, liabilities, expenses and damages (including any investigative, legal and other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with, and any amount paid in settlement of, any action, suit or proceeding or any claim asserted, but after deducting any contribution received by the Company from persons other than the Sales Manager, such as persons who control the Company within the meaning of the Act, officers of the Company who signed the Registration Statement and trustees of the Company, who also may be liable for contribution) to which the Company and the Sales Manager may be subject in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Sales Manager on the other. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Sales Manager on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total compensation (before deducting expenses) received by the Sales Manager from the sale of Shares on behalf of the Company. If, but only if, the allocation provided by the foregoing sentence is not permitted by applicable law, the allocation of contribution shall be made in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in the foregoing sentence but also the relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and the Sales Manager, on the other, with respect to the statements or omission which resulted in such loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations with respect to such offering. Such relative fault shall be determined by reference to whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Sales Manager, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and the Sales Manager agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this Section 5.1(d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take into account, the equitable considerations referred to herein. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim, liability, expense or damage, or action in respect thereof, referred to above in this Section 5.1(d) shall be deemed to include, for the purpose of this Section 5.1(d), any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.1(d), the Sales Manager shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total actual sales price at which Shares sold by the Sales Manager exceeds the amount of any damages that the Sales Manager has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission and no person found guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) will be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section 5.1(d), any person who controls a party to this Agreement within the meaning of the Act will have the same rights to contribution as that party, and each officer and director of the Company who signed the Registration Statement will have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the provisions hereof. Any party entitled to contribution, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made under this Section 5.1(d), will notify any such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission so to notify will not relieve that party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any other obligation it or they may have under this Section 5.1(d). No party will be liable for contribution with respect to any action or claim settled without its written consent (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld).


	(e) The indemnity and contribution provided by this Article V shall not relieve the Company and the Sales Manager from any liability the Company and the Sales Manager may otherwise have (including, without limitation, any liability the Sales Manager may have for a breach of its obligations under Article II above).

ARTICLE VI.

REPRESENTATIONS AND AGREEMENTS TO SURVIVE DELIVERY

	7.3 This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect unless terminated pursuant to Sections 7.1 or 7.2 above or otherwise by mutual agreement of the parties; provided that any such termination by mutual agreement shall in all cases be deemed to provide that Section 3.1(h), Article V and Article VI above shall remain in full force and effect.

7.4 Any termination of this Agreement shall be effective on the date specified in such notice of termination; provided that such termination shall not be effective until the close of business on the date of receipt of such notice by the Sales Manager or the Company, as the case may be. If such termination shall occur during a period when sales of Shares are being made pursuant to this Agreement, any sales of Shares made prior to the termination of this Agreement shall settle in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxx Securities Corporation
000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 0^xx Xxxxx
Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000
Gentlemen:

We have acted as legal counsel to Brandywine Realty Trust, a real estate investment trust formed under and by virtue of the laws of the State of Maryland (the “Company”), in connection with the negotiation of the Sales Agreement dated as of [Date of Execution] between the Company and you (the “Agreement”). This letter is being furnished to you pursuant to Section 4.1(d) of the Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given them in the Agreement.

For purposes of rendering the opinions expressed below, we have examined the executed original, or a copy certified or otherwise authenticated to our satisfaction, of the Agreement. We have also examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise authenticated to our satisfaction, of such other documents and certificates of public officials and officers of the Company, as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes of this letter.

In rendering the opinions expressed herein, we have assumed without independent verification the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity, completeness and accuracy of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, photostatic or facsimile copies thereof and the authenticity, completeness and accuracy of the originals of such certified, photostatic or facsimile copies. In making our examination of documents executed by parties other than the Company, we have assumed that such parties had the power to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, and due execution and delivery by such parties of such documents and the validity and binding effect thereof. We have no knowledge of any fraud and have assumed that no fraud exists regarding the documents referenced herein or the transactions evidenced or contemplated thereby or otherwise regarding any matters relevant to the opinions set forth herein. As to questions of fact material to such opinions, we have also, when relevant facts were not independently established, relied upon the documents, trust records, agreements, instruments and certificates referenced in the second paragraph of this letter.

With respect to the opinions set forth below, we have further assumed that the Company will continue (as it does on the date hereof) to have a sufficient number of Common Shares of Beneficial Interest (the “Shares”), $.01 par value, authorized for issuance under its declaration of trust from time to time to accommodate the issuances contemplated by the Agreement.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the assumptions and qualifications set forth herein, and with due regard to such legal considerations as we deem relevant, we are of the opinion that:

1. The Company is a real estate investment trust duly formed and validly existing under and by virtue of the laws of the State of Maryland and is in good standing with the State Department of Assessments and taxation of Maryland, with full trust power and authority to conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement and Prospectus and is duly qualified to transact business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which it owns or leases real property, except where the failure to so qualify and be in good standing would not result in a Material Adverse Effect.

2. The Board of Trustees of the Company has duly and validly authorized the issuance of the Shares at market price at the time of the transaction, and when issued and delivered to and paid for by the purchaser thereof pursuant to the Agreement, the Shares will be fully paid and nonassessable and will conform to the description thereof in the Prospectus. All trust action required to be taken for the authorization, issuance and sale of the Shares pursuant to the Agreement has been validly and sufficiently taken. The shareholders of the Company have no preemptive rights with respect to the Shares. The Shares are the subject of an effective registration statement permitting its sale in the manner contemplated by the Agreement.

3. The Registration Statement has become effective under the Act; (B) to our knowledge, no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or threatened by the Commission; (C) if applicable, the filing of the Prospectus supplements have been made in the manner and within the time period required by the Rules and Regulations; and (D) the Shares have been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange.

4. The Registration Statement, when it became effective, and the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, on the date of filing thereof with the Commission and at the date hereof (except for the financial statements and notes and schedules and other financial information included therein), complied as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Act and the Rules and Regulations; and the documents incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, when filed with the Commission under the Exchange Act (except for the financial statements and notes and schedules and other financial information included therein), complied as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

5. The description in the Registration Statement and Prospectus of statutes, legal and governmental proceedings, contracts and other documents are accurate in all material respects; and we do not know of any statutes or legal or governmental proceedings required to be described in the Prospectus that are not described as required, or of any contracts or documents of a character required to be described in the Registration Statement or Prospectus (or required to be filed under the Exchange Act if upon such filing they would be incorporated by reference therein) or to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement that are not described and filed as required.


	6. The Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company.

7. The execution, delivery and performance of the Agreement by the Company and the consummation of the transactions contemplated therein by the Company do not and will not result in a breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under, any agreement or instrument known to us to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or to which any of the property of the Company is subject, except for such breaches or defaults that would not in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company, nor will such action result in the violation of the Company’s declaration of trust or by-laws, or any statute or any order, rule or regulation known to us of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties.

8. Except for permits and similar authorizations required under the securities or “blue sky” laws of certain states (as to which we express no opinion), no consent, waiver, approval, authorization or other order of any regulatory body, administrative agency or other governmental body is legally required for (i) the issuance or sale of the Shares by the Company, or (ii) the sale of the Shares by the Sales Manager, each as contemplated by the Agreement and the Prospectus.

9. We know of no actions, suits or proceedings pending or threatened against or affecting the Company or the business, properties, business prospects, condition (financial or otherwise) or results of operations of the Company or any of its officers in their capacity as such, before or by any federal or state or foreign court, commission, regulatory body, wherein an unfavorable ruling, decision or finding might have a Material Adverse Effect on the Company.


	10. The Company is not, and upon issuance and sale of the Shares and the application of the net proceeds from the sale thereof in the manner described in the Prospectus will not be, an “investment company” within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

In rendering the foregoing opinions we express no opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than applicable federal law and the laws of the State of New York, and we assume no responsibility as to the applicability thereto, or the effect thereon, of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

This letter and the matters addressed herein are as of the date hereof, and we undertake no, and hereby disclaim any, obligation to advise you of any change in any matter set forth herein occurring after the date hereof. This letter is solely for your benefit, and no other persons shall be entitled to rely upon the opinions herein expressed. This letter is limited to the matters stated herein and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated. Without our prior written consent, this letter may not be quoted in whole or in part or otherwise referred to in any document and may not be furnished to any other person or entity.

We have participated in conferences with trustees, officers and other representatives of the Company, representatives of the Sales Manager and representatives of the Sales Manager’s legal counsel, at which conferences the contents of the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and related matters were discussed, and, although we have not independently verified and are not passing upon and assume no responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement and Prospectus (except to the extent specified in the foregoing opinions), no facts have come to our attention that lead us to believe that the Registration Statement, at the time it became effective, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or the Prospectus, on the date of filing thereof with the Commission and at the date hereof, included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; it being understood that we express no opinion or view as to the financial statements and related notes, the financial statement schedules or other financial and statistical data included in any of the documents mentioned in this paragraph.

Very truly yours,


						[Legal Counsel]
