Mortgage);
WHEREAS, to induce the Lenders to enter into the Term Loan Agreement, the

only if the Borrower and BOSTON PROPERTIES, INC. ("BPI"), jointly and severally,
---
execute and deliver this Agreement agreeing and guaranteeing to pay to the
Lenders the Net Cash Flow Shortfall (as such term is hereinafter defined) in the
manner hereinafter provided;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and
valuable consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, and in order to induce the Lenders to make and extend the Term
Loan to the Borrower, the undersigned hereby acknowledge, agree and confirm that
all of the above recitals are true, correct and complete and hereby covenant and
agree with the Lenders as follows:
1. Subject only to the limitation of liability set forth in Paragraph 2

Event of Default, including without limitation following an acceleration of the
Term Loan pursuant to the Term Loan Agreement, the payment of the Net Cash Flow
Shortfall from time to time, whether accruing before or after the occurrence of
any such Event of Default. From and after the occurrence of an Event of
- 1 -
Default, the amount of any Net Cash Flow Shortfall as at the first day of each
calendar month, shall be paid to Chase on the first day of each calendar month
succeeding such Event of Default. For the purposes of this Agreement an Event
of Default shall be deemed to be continuing if the same shall be the case under
the Term Loan Agreement.

other capital expenditures, paid or incurred (or imputedly incurred in the case
of reasonable reserves) during the period in question exceeds the Net Operating
-------
Income for such period. The term "Net Operating Income" as used in this
--------------------
Agreement means Property Income less Property Expenses. The term "Property

The term "Rentals" as used in this Agreement means, collectively, all payments
-------

issues, profits, condemnation and insurance proceeds (except as otherwise
provided in the Mortgage), refunds, rebates, escalations, option payments,
application of security deposits, collection proceeds and other payments of
whatever type or nature, foreseen or unforeseen, whether in payment of past,
present or future obligations. The term "Property Expenses" as used in this

and interest), non-cash items such as depreciation and amortization and any
extraordinary expenditures not considered operating expenses in accordance with
GAAP); (i) all expenses for the operation of the Premises incurred by the
Borrower, but not including any expenses incurred in connection with a sale of
other capital or interim capital transaction; (ii) taxes, water charges,

(or portions thereof) that are payable by reason of the failure of the owner of
the property to pay a tax timely; (iii) the cost of routine maintenance (the
cost of which may be expenses), repairs and minor alterations, the cost of which
can be expensed under GAAP; (iv) all reasonable and customary expenses incurred
by the Borrower directly relating to the ownership of the Premises, such as
asset and property management fees and insurance expenses and also including
accounting costs and legal fees (but excluding other costs not directly related

other than the
- 2 -
Premises any such expense not directly related to the ownership of the Premises

only to the extent equitably allocable to the Premises; and (v) all commercially
reasonable expenses incurred by the Borrower in connection with the takeover of
any leases in connection with leases entered into in accordance with the terms
hereof.
2. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Paragraph 1 of
this Agreement, liability under this Agreement for Net Cash Flow Shortfall shall
not apply after a Debt Service Coverage Ratio of 1.2 to 1.0 is achieved for two
(2) consecutive calendar quarters; provided, however, that if subsequent to such
-------- -------
achievement of a 1.2 to 1.0 Debt Service Coverage Ratio, the Term Loan Debt
Service Coverage Ratio shall become less than 1.2 to 1.0 for any one (1)
calendar quarter, then the undersigned shall again have liability hereunder for
the Net Cash Flow Shortfall.
3. The undersigned agree to pay to Chase and the other Lenders the
reasonable cost of any and all lawful action that may be taken by Chase and the
other Lenders in connection with the enforcement of the provisions of this
Agreement, whether or not suit is filed in connection therewith, or in
connection with either or both of the undersigned, becoming a party to a
voluntary or involuntary federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar
proceeding, (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' fees and
disbursements, whether in-house staff, retained firms or otherwise). All sums
due Chase and the other Lenders under this paragraph 3 by the undersigned shall
be payable by the undersigned from time to time within ten (10) Business Days of

independent of, and in addition to, all collateral, if any, granted, pledged or
assigned under the Transaction Documents.
5. BPI hereby consents that from time to time, before or after any
default by the Borrower, with or without further notice to or assent from BPI:
(a) any security at any time held by or available to Chase or the
other Lenders for any obligation of the Borrower, or any security at any time
held by or available to Chase or the other Lenders for any obligation of any
other person or party primarily, secondarily or otherwise liable for all or any
portion of the Term Loan and/or any other obligations of the Borrower or any
other person or party (other than Chase and the Lenders) under any of the
Transaction Documents ("Other Obligations"), if any, including any guarantor of
-----------------
the Term Loan and/or of any of such Other Obligations, may be accelerated,
settled, exchanged, surrendered or released and Chase and the other Lenders may
fail to set
- 3 -
off and may release, in whole or in part, any balance of any deposit account or
credit on its books in favor of the Borrower, or of any such other person or
party;
(b) any obligation of the Borrower, or of any such other person or
party, may be changed, altered, renewed, extended, continued, accelerated,
surrendered, compromised, settled, waived or released in whole or in part, or
any Default or Event of Default thereto waived; and
(c) Chase or any other Lender may extend further credit in any manner
whatsoever to the Borrower, and generally deal with the Borrower or any of the
above mentioned security, deposit account, credit on its books or other person
or party as Chase or any other Lender may see fit;
and BPI shall remain bound in all respects under this Agreement, without any
loss of any rights by Chase or the other Lenders and without affecting the
liability of the undersigned, notwithstanding any such exchange, surrender,
release, change, alteration, renewal, extension, continuance, compromise,
waiver, inaction, extension of further credit or other dealing; and the Borrower
agrees that none of the events described in clauses (a)-(c) above shall be
construed in any way to result in a release of the Borrower from its personal
recourse obligation hereunder for the Liabilities.
6. All moneys available to Chase or the other Lenders pursuant to the
Transaction Documents for application in payment or reduction of the Term Loan,
the Liabilities and/or any Other Obligations may be applied by Chase in such
manner and in such amounts and at such time or times and in such order, priority
and proportions as Chase may see fit.
7. The undersigned hereby waives:
(a) notice of acceptance of this Agreement and of the extending of the
Term Loan or the making of any advance thereunder by the Lenders to the
Borrower;
(b) presentment and demand for payment of the Liabilities or any
portion thereof;
(c) protest and notice of dishonor or default to any of the
undersigned or to any other person or party with respect to the Liabilities or
any portion thereof;
(d) all other notices to which any of the undersigned might otherwise
be entitled; and
(e) any demand under this Agreement.
- 4 -
8. If any of the following events should occur:
(a) an Event of Default continues uncured;
(b) any of the undersigned violates any provision of this Agreement;
(c) any of the undersigned terminates or dissolves or suspends its
usual business activities or conveys, sells, leases, transfers or otherwise
disposes of all or substantially all of its property, business or assets other
than in the ordinary course of business;
then, and in such event, Chase may declare the Liabilities to be, and the same
shall become, immediately due and payable.
9. This Agreement includes a personal recourse agreement by the Borrower
and a personal recourse guaranty by BPI. BPI acknowledges and agrees that such
guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. The undersigned waive
any right to require that any action be brought against the Borrower or any
other person or party or to require that resort be had to any security or to any
balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of Chase or any other
Lender in favor of the Borrower or any other person or party. Any payment on
account of or reacknowledgment of the Liabilities by the Borrower or any other
party liable therefor shall be deemed to be made on behalf of BPI and shall
serve to start anew the statutory period of limitations applicable to the
Liabilities.
10. The provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of Chase and the
other Lenders, and shall be binding upon each of the undersigned. Each
reference herein to Chase and the other Lenders shall be deemed to include their
respective successors and assigns permitted pursuant to the provisions of the
Term Loan Agreement, and each reference to Chase shall refer to it in its
capacity as a Lender and as the Administrative Agent under the Transaction
Documents. Each reference herein to the undersigned shall be deemed to include
the administrators, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the
undersigned, provided, however, that the undersigned shall in no event nor under
any circumstance have the right, without obtaining the prior written consent of
Chase, to assign or transfer the Liabilities, in whole or in part, to any other
person, party or entity.
11. The term "undersigned" as used herein shall, if this Agreement is
-----------
signed by more than one party, unless otherwise stated herein, mean the
"undersigned and each of them" and each undertaking herein contained shall be
their joint and several undertaking. Chase may proceed against none, one or more
of the undersigned at one time or from time to time as it sees fit in its sole
and absolute discretion. If any party hereto shall be a partnership, the
agreements and obligations on the part of the undersigned herein contained shall
remain in force and application notwithstanding any changes in the individuals
composing the partnership and the term "undersigned" shall include any altered
or successive
- 5 -
partnerships, but the predecessor partnerships and their general partner(s)
shall not thereby be released from any obligations or liability hereunder. If
any party hereto shall be a corporation, the agreements and obligations on the
part of the undersigned herein contained shall remain in force and application
notwithstanding the merger, consolidation, reorganization or absorption thereof,
and the term "undersigned" shall include such new entity, but the old entity
shall not thereby be released from any obligations or liabilities hereunder.
12. No delay on the part of Chase or any other Lender in exercising any
right or remedy under this Agreement or failure to exercise the same shall
operate as a waiver in whole or in part of any such right or remedy. No notice
to or demand on any of the undersigned shall be deemed to be a waiver of the
obligations of any of the undersigned or of the right of Chase or any other
Lender to take further action without notice or demand as provided in this
Agreement. No course of dealing between any of the undersigned and Chase or any
other Lender shall change, modify or discharge, in whole or in part, this
Agreement or any obligations of the undersigned hereunder.
13. This Agreement may only be modified, amended, changed or terminated by
an agreement in writing signed by Chase, as Administrative Agent, and both of
the undersigned. No waiver of any term, covenant or provision of this Agreement
shall be effective unless given in writing by Chase, as Administrative Agent,
and if so given by Chase shall only be effective in the specific instance in
which given. The execution and delivery hereafter to Chase or any other Lender
by any of the undersigned of a new instrument of guaranty or any reaffirmation
of guaranty, of whatever nature, shall not terminate, supersede or cancel this
instrument, unless executed by Chase, as Administrative Agent, and expressly so
provided therein, and all rights and remedies of Chase and the other Lenders
hereunder and under each other Transaction Document, at law and in equity,
whether against any or both of the undersigned or any other party or parties,
shall be cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently.
14. The undersigned acknowledge that this Agreement and the undersigneds'
obligations under this Agreement are and shall at all times continue to be
absolute, irrevocable and unconditional in all respects, and shall at all times
be valid and enforceable irrespective of any other agreements or circumstances
of any nature whatsoever which might otherwise constitute a defense to this
Agreement and the obligations of any of the undersigned under this Agreement or
the obligations of any other person or party relating to this Agreement or the
obligations of any of the undersigned hereunder or otherwise with respect to the
Term Loan, the Term Loan, the other obligations or the Liabilities, including,
but not limited to, the realization upon any collateral given, pledged or
assigned as security for all or any portion of the Term Loan, or the filing of a
petition under Title 11 of the United States Code with regard to the
undersigned, or the commencement of an action or proceeding for the benefit of
the creditors of the undersigned, or the obtaining by Chase of title to any
collateral given, pledged or assigned as security for the Term Loan by reason of
- 6 -
foreclosure or enforcement of Xxxxx'x xxxx thereon, the acceptance of an
assignment or deed in lieu of foreclosure or sale, or otherwise. This Agreement
sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of Chase, the other Lenders
and the undersigned with respect to the matters covered by this Agreement and
the undersigned acknowledge that no oral or other agreements, understandings,
representations or warranties exist with respect to this Agreement or with
respect to the Liabilities, except those specifically set forth in this
Agreement.
15. This Agreement has been validly authorized, executed and delivered by
each of the undersigned. The undersigned represent and warrant to Chase and the
other Lenders that they have the corporate and partnership power to do so and to
perform their respective obligations under this Agreement, and this Agreement
constitutes the legally binding obligations of each of the undersigned fully
enforceable against each of the undersigned in accordance with the terms hereof.
The undersigned further represent and warrant to Chase and the other Lenders
that:
(a) neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement nor the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby nor compliance with the
terms and provisions hereof will violate any applicable provision of law or any
applicable regulation or other manifestation of governmental action; and
(b) all necessary approvals, consents, licenses, registrations and
validations of any governmental regulatory body, including, without limitation,
approvals required to permit the undersigned to execute and carry out the
provisions of this Agreement, for the validity of the obligations of the
undersigned hereunder and for the making of any payment or remittance of any
funds required to be made by either of the undersigned under this Agreement,
have been obtained and are in full force and effect.
16. Notwithstanding any payments made by BPI pursuant to the provisions of
this Agreement, BPI shall not seek to enforce or collect upon any rights which
it now has or may acquire against the Borrower either by way of subrogation,
indemnity, reimbursement or contribution for any amount paid under this
Agreement or by way of any other obligations whatsoever of the Borrower to BPI,
nor shall BPI file, assert or receive payment on any claim, whether now existing
or hereafter arising, against the Borrower in the event of the commencement of a
case by or against the Borrower under Title 11 of the United States Code. In
the event either a petition is filed under said Title 11 of the United States
Code with regard to the Borrower or an action or proceeding is commenced for the
benefit of the creditors of the Borrower, this Agreement shall at all times
thereafter remain effective in regard to any payments or other transfers of
assets to Chase or any other Lender, received from or on behalf of the Borrower
prior to notice of termination of this Agreement and which are or may be held
voidable on the grounds of preference or fraud, whether or not the Term Loan has
been paid in full.

of procedure, nor shall the foregoing be deemed a waiver of the right of the
undersigned to assert any claim which would constitute a defense, setoff,
counterclaim or crossclaim of any nature whatsoever against Chase in any
separate action or proceeding).
21. No exculpatory provisions which may be contained in the Note, the

and liabilities under this Agreement. Conversely, the discharge of any or all
of the undersigned's obligations and liabilities under this Agreement by the
undersigned or by reason of operation of law or otherwise shall in no event or
under any circumstance constitute or be deemed to constitute a discharge, in
