EXPLANATORY NOTE
This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2014 of BioMed Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and BioMed Realty, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership of which BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. is the parent company and general partner. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to “we,” “us,” “our” or “our company” refer to BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including BioMed Realty, L.P. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to “our operating partnership” or “the operating partnership” refer to BioMed Realty, L.P. together with its consolidated subsidiaries.
BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. operates as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, and is the general partner of BioMed Realty, L.P. As of March 31, 2014, BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. owned an approximate 97.3% partnership interest and other limited partners, including some of our directors, executive officers and their affiliates, owned the remaining 2.7% partnership interest (including long term incentive plan units) in BioMed Realty, L.P. As the sole general partner of BioMed Realty, L.P., BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. has the full, exclusive and complete responsibility for the operating partnership’s day-to-day management and control.
There are a few differences between our company and our operating partnership, which are reflected in the disclosure in this report. We believe it is important to understand the differences between our company and our operating partnership in the context of how BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. and BioMed Realty, L.P. operate as an interrelated consolidated company. BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. is a REIT, whose only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of BioMed Realty, L.P. As a result, BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of BioMed Realty, L.P., issuing public equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of BioMed Realty, L.P. BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. itself does not hold any indebtedness but guarantees some of the secured and unsecured debt of BioMed Realty, L.P. BioMed Realty, L.P. holds substantially all the assets of the company and holds the ownership interests in the company’s joint ventures. BioMed Realty, L.P. conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly-traded equity. Except for net proceeds from public equity issuances by BioMed Realty Trust, Inc., which are generally contributed to BioMed Realty, L.P. in exchange for partnership units, BioMed Realty, L.P. generates the capital required by the company’s business through BioMed Realty, L.P.’s operations, by BioMed Realty, L.P.’s direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness or through the issuance of partnership units.
Noncontrolling interests and stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. and those of BioMed Realty, L.P. The operating partnership and long term incentive plan units in BioMed Realty, L.P. that are not owned by BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. are accounted for as partners’ capital in BioMed Realty, L.P.’s financial statements and as noncontrolling interests in BioMed Realty Trust, Inc.’s financial statements. The noncontrolling interests in BioMed Realty, L.P.’s financial statements include the interests of joint venture partners. The noncontrolling interests in BioMed Realty Trust, Inc.’s financial statements include the same noncontrolling interests at the BioMed Realty, L.P. level as well as the limited partnership unitholders of BioMed Realty, L.P., not including BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. The differences between stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital result from the differences in the equity issued at the BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. and BioMed Realty, L.P. levels.
We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. and BioMed Realty, L.P. into this single report:
better reflects how management and the analyst community view the business as a single operating unit,
enhances investor understanding of our company by enabling them to view the business as a whole and in the same manner as management,
is more efficient for our company and results in savings in time, effort and expense, and
is more efficient for investors by reducing duplicative disclosure and providing a single document for their review.
To help investors understand the significant differences between our company and our operating partnership, this report presents the following separate sections for each of BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. and BioMed Realty, L.P.:
consolidated financial statements,
the following notes to the consolidated financial statements:
Equity / Partners’ Capital,
Debt, and

Earnings Per Share / Unit,

This report also includes separate Item 4. Controls and Procedures sections and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications for each of BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. and BioMed Realty, L.P. in order to establish that the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. have made the requisite certifications and BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. and BioMed Realty, L.P. are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and 18 U.S.C. §1350.

BIOMED REALTY TRUST, INC.
BIOMED REALTY, L.P.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. Organization of the Parent Company and Description of Business

BioMed Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Parent Company”), operates as a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed real estate investment trust (“REIT”) focused on acquiring, developing, owning, leasing and managing laboratory and office space for the life science industry principally through its subsidiary, BioMed Realty, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership (the “Operating Partnership” and together with the Parent Company referred to as the “Company”). The Company’s tenants primarily include biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, scientific research institutions, government agencies and other entities involved in the life science industry. The Company’s properties are generally located in markets with well-established reputations as centers for scientific research, including Boston, San Francisco, San Diego, Maryland, New York/New Jersey, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Seattle and Cambridge (United Kingdom) and, through Wexford Science & Technology, LLC and related entities (collectively, "Wexford"), with universities and their related medical systems.

The Parent Company is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership and, as of March 31, 2014, owned a 97.3% interest in the Operating Partnership. The remaining 2.7% interest in the Operating Partnership is held by limited partners. Each partner’s percentage interest in the Operating Partnership is determined based on the number of operating partnership units and long-term incentive plan units (“LTIP units” and together with the operating partnership units, the “OP units”) owned as compared to total OP units (and potentially issuable OP units, as applicable) outstanding as of each period end and is used as the basis for the allocation of net income or loss to each partner.

On April 4, 2014, the Company completed an investment in two properties, 300 George Street and 100 College Street, in New Haven, Connecticut. The 300 George Street property is a 519,000 square foot laboratory and office building. The 100 College Street property, currently under construction, is expected to be a 508,000 square foot laboratory and office building. The total project investment is expected to be approximately $308 million, comprised of (1) approximately $206 million in cash, assumptions of mortgage notes payable and a construction loan in connection with the Company's investment, and a continuing minority partnership interest of Winstanley Enterprises LLC, which will also continue to provide construction and property management services for the properties, and (2) approximately $102 million of remaining construction costs. As of April 4, 2014, Winstanley Enterprises LLC retained approximately 7% and 25% continuing minority partnership interests in the 300 George Street and 100 College Street properties, respectively. Upon completion of construction of the 100 College Street property and repayment of the related construction loan, the Company expects Winstanley Enterprises LLC’s minority partnership interest in the 100 College Street property to be reduced to approximately 2.5%.

2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying interim financial statements are unaudited, but have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and in conjunction with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all the disclosures required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments and eliminations, consisting of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements for these interim periods have been recorded. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes therein included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, its wholly-owned subsidiaries, partnerships and limited liability companies it controls, and variable interest entities (“VIEs”) for which the Company has determined itself to be the primary beneficiary. All material intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. The Company consolidates entities the Company controls and records a noncontrolling interest for the portions not owned by the Company. Control is determined, where applicable, by the sufficiency of equity invested and the rights of the equity holders, and by the ownership of a majority of the voting interests, with consideration given to the existence of approval or veto rights granted to the minority stockholder. If the minority stockholder holds substantive participating rights, it overcomes the presumption of control by the majority voting interest holder. In contrast, if the minority stockholder simply holds protective rights (such as consent rights over certain actions), it does not overcome the presumption of control by the majority voting interest holder.

Table of Contents

Assets and liabilities of subsidiaries outside the United States with non-U.S. dollar functional currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using exchange rates as of the balance sheet dates. Income and expenses are translated using the average exchange rates for the reporting period. Foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded as a component of other comprehensive income. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, total revenues from properties outside the United States were $4.8 million and $4.5 million, respectively, which represented 2.8% of the Company's total revenues during each period. The Company’s net investments in properties outside the United States were $190.7 million and $190.2 million at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

Investments in Partnerships and Limited Liability Companies

The Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary in five VIEs (excluding certain VIEs through its ownership of Wexford), consisting of single-tenant properties in which the tenant has a fixed-price purchase option, which are consolidated and reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Selected financial data of these VIEs at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consist of the following (in thousands):

Wexford - Variable Interest Entities

Wexford is a party to certain contractual arrangements with tax credit investors (“TCIs”) that were established to enable the TCIs to receive the benefits of historic tax credits (“HTCs”) and/or new market tax credits (“NMTCs”) for certain properties owned by Wexford. At March 31, 2014, Wexford owned nine properties that had syndicated HTCs or NMTCs, or both, to TCIs.
 
Historic Tax Credits and New Market Tax Credits

Capital contributions are made by TCIs into special purpose entities that ultimately invest these funds in the entity that owns the subject property that generates the tax credits. The TCIs are allocated substantially all of the tax credits and hold only a noncontrolling interest in the economic risk and rewards of the special purpose entities. HTCs are delivered to the TCI upon substantial completion of the project. NMTCs are allowed for up to 39% of a qualified investment and are delivered to the TCI after the investment has been funded and spent on a qualified business. HTCs are subject to 20% recapture per year beginning one year after the completion of the historic rehabilitation of the subject property. NMTCs are subject to 100% recapture until the end of the seventh year following the qualifying investment. The Company has provided the TCIs with certain guarantees which protect the TCIs from loss should a tax credit recapture event occur. The contractual arrangements with the TCIs include a put/call provision whereby the Company may be obligated or entitled to repurchase the ownership interest of the TCIs in the special purpose entities at the end of the tax credit recapture period. The Company anticipates that either the TCIs will exercise their put rights or the Company will exercise its call rights; however, the Company believes that the put rights are more likely to be exercised.

The Company has determined that the special purpose entities are VIEs, since there is insufficient capital to finance their activities without further subordinated financial support. The Company has determined that it is the primary beneficiary of these VIEs, because it has the authority to direct the activities which most significantly impact their economic performance.

The portion of the TCI’s capital contribution that is attributed to the put is recorded at fair-value at inception and is accreted to the expected put price as interest expense in the consolidated statement of income. At March 31, 2014, approximately $4.5 million of put liabilities were included in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The remaining balance of the TCI’s capital contribution is initially recorded in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets and is reclassified, upon delivery of the tax credit to the TCI, to reduce the carrying value of the subject property, net of allocated expenses. Direct and incremental costs incurred in structuring the transaction, consisting of third-party legal, accounting and other professional fees are deferred and will be recognized as an increase in the cost basis of the subject property upon the recognition of the related tax credit as discussed above. During the quarter ended March 31, 2014, $15.5 million of tax credits, net of costs and estimated put payments, were contributed by TCIs and recorded as other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, of which $12.8 million in tax credits were delivered to the TCIs and reclassified as a reduction of the carrying value of the subject property.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed

The Company reviews long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. The review of recoverability is based on an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest charges) expected to result from the long-lived asset’s use and eventual disposition. These cash flows consider factors such as expected future operating income, trends and prospects, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If impairment exists due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a long-lived asset, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair-value of the property. The Company is required to make subjective assessments as to whether there are impairments in the values of its investments in long-lived assets. These assessments have a direct impact on the Company’s net income because recording an impairment loss results in an immediate negative adjustment to net income. The evaluation of anticipated cash flows is highly subjective and is based in part on assumptions regarding future occupancy, rental rates and capital requirements that could differ materially from actual results in future periods. Although the Company’s strategy is to hold its properties over the long-term, if the Company’s strategy changes or market conditions otherwise dictate an earlier sale date, an impairment loss may be recognized to reduce the property to the lower of the carrying amount or fair-value, and such loss could be material. As of and for the three months ended March 31, 2014, no assets have been identified as impaired and no such impairment losses have been recognized.

Deferred Leasing Costs, Net

Leasing commissions and other direct costs associated with obtaining new or renewal leases are recorded at cost and amortized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases, with remaining terms ranging from less than one year to approximately 20 years as of March 31, 2014. Deferred leasing costs also include the net carrying value of acquired in-place leases and acquired management agreements.

Determination of fair-value is classified as Level 1 in the fair-value hierarchy based on the use of quoted prices in active markets.

The Company holds investments in available-for-sale securities of certain publicly-traded companies. Certain of these investments have fair-values less than the Company’s cost basis, net of previous other-than-temporary impairment in these securities due to decreases in their respective stock prices during the three months ended March 31, 2014. However, management has the intent and ability to retain the investments for a period of time sufficient to allow for an anticipated recovery in their market value. Management will continue to periodically evaluate whether any investment, the fair-value of which is less than the Company’s cost basis, should be considered other-than-temporarily impaired. If other-than-temporary impairment is considered to exist, the related unrealized loss will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss and recorded as a reduction of net income.

The Company also holds investments in securities of certain privately-held companies and funds, which are recorded at cost basis due to the Company’s lack of control or significant influence over such companies and funds.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company recorded a $1.3 million impairment charge, which is included in other expense in the consolidated statements of income. The impairment charge related to the Company’s investment in a privately-held company. Other than this investment there were no identified events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse effect on the carrying value of the Company’s cost basis investments and therefore, no evaluation of impairment was performed during the three months ended March 31, 2014 on the Company’s remaining cost basis investments.

Construction Loan Receivable

The Company has a $255.0 million interest in a $355.0 million construction loan secured by first priority mortgages on a 1.1 million square foot laboratory, office and retail development project located in Boston, Massachusetts, which is 95% leased to Vertex Pharmaceuticals Incorporated to serve as its new corporate headquarters (the "Construction Loan").

The Construction Loan matures on September 30, 2014, with two one -year extension options exercisable at the borrower’s election after paying the lenders an extension fee on the then-outstanding principal amount. The Construction Loan bears interest on the outstanding principal amount at a floating rate equal to the greater of (1) reserve adjusted LIBOR plus 550 basis points and (2) 6.5%. In addition, the borrower is required to pay a fee to the lenders based on a specified percentage of the average daily unfunded amount of the Construction Loan. The borrower may prepay the Construction Loan in part under certain circumstances, and may prepay the Construction Loan in full with prior notice and a prepayment fee to the lenders. As of March 31, 2014 and

Table of Contents

December 31, 2013, the Company had invested approximately $191.3 million and $151.8 million, respectively, in the Construction Loan, which are included in other assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

Lease Termination

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded lease termination revenue, net of write-offs of lease intangibles, included in other revenue on the consolidated statement of income of approximately $5.5 million and $24.0 million, respectively. Lease termination revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014 primarily related to the early termination of leases at the Company's 4570 Executive Drive property. Lease termination revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2013 primarily related to the termination of a lease with Elan Corporation at the Company’s Science Center at Oyster Point property for which Elan paid the Company $46.5 million. The impact of the Elan lease termination was recognized through the date of the termination of the lease in April 2013.

Management’s Estimates

Management has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reporting of revenue and expenses during the reporting period to prepare these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and reported amounts of revenue and expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

3. Equity of the Parent Company
 
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Parent Company issued restricted stock awards to the Company’s employees totaling 557,237 shares of common stock (190,062 shares of common stock were surrendered to the Company and subsequently retired in lieu of cash payments for taxes due on the vesting of restricted stock and 2,693 shares were forfeited during the same period), which are included in the total of common stock outstanding as of the period end.

The Parent Company awarded units to certain of its executive officers (the “Performance Units”), which represent a contingent right to receive one share of the Parent Company’s common stock if vesting conditions are satisfied. Outstanding Performance Units vest ratably over two or three year periods (each, a “Performance Period”) based upon the Parent Company’s total stockholder return relative to its peer group (the "Market Conditions"). The grant date fair-value of the Performance Units was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation which considered the likelihood of achieving the Market Conditions. The expected value of the Performance Units on the grant date was determined by simulating the total stockholder return for the Parent Company and the peer group, considering the stock price variance for each of the peer group companies compared to each other and the Parent Company. In January 2014, of the 136,296 Performance Units which were originally granted to certain executive officers in January 2012 and represent the maximum number of Performance Units that could have vested, 20,224 Performance Units vested (resulting in the issuance of 20,224 shares of the Parent Company’s common stock (7,243 shares issued in connection with the vesting of the Performance Units were surrendered to the Company and subsequently retired in lieu of cash payments for taxes due on the vesting of Performance Units) and the remaining 116,072 Performance Units were forfeited, based on the Parent Company’s total stockholder return relative to its peer group for the two years ended December 31, 2013. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Parent Company awarded 494,410 Performance Units which represent the maximum number of Performance Units that may vest and which vest over a three-year Performance Period. The grant date fair-value of these awards of approximately $3.8 million will be recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over each respective Performance Period. The total compensation remaining on the Performance Units granted during the three months ended March 31, 2014 to be expensed in future periods over a weighted-average term of approximately 2.8 years was $3.5 million as of March 31, 2014. No dividends will be paid or accrued on the Performance Units, and shares of the Parent Company's common stock will not be issued until vesting of the Performance Units occurs.

Common Stock, Operating Partnership Units and LTIP Units

As of March 31, 2014, the Company had outstanding 192,502,965 shares of the Parent Company’s common stock and 5,083,400 and 322,074 operating partnership and LTIP units, respectively (excluding operating partnership units held by the Parent Company). A share of the Parent Company’s common stock and the operating partnership and LTIP units have essentially the same economic characteristics as they share equally in the total net income or loss and distributions of the Operating Partnership.

Noncontrolling Interests

Noncontrolling interests on the consolidated balance sheets of the Parent Company relate primarily to the OP units in the Operating Partnership that are not owned by the Parent Company. With respect to the noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership, noncontrolling interests with redemption provisions that permit the issuer to settle in either cash or common stock at the option of the issuer are further evaluated to determine whether temporary or permanent equity classification on the balance sheet is appropriate. Because the OP units comprising the noncontrolling interests contain such a provision, the Company evaluated this guidance, including the requirement to settle in unregistered shares, and determined that the OP units meet the requirements to qualify for presentation as permanent equity.

The Company evaluates individual redeemable noncontrolling interests for the ability to continue to recognize the noncontrolling interest as permanent equity in the consolidated balance sheets. Any redeemable noncontrolling interest that fails to qualify as permanent equity will be reclassified as temporary equity and adjusted to the greater of (1) the carrying amount, or (2) its redemption value at the end of the period in which the determination is made.

The redemption value of the OP units not owned by the Parent Company, had such units been redeemed at March 31, 2014, was approximately $109.0 million based on the average closing price of the Parent Company’s common stock of $20.16 per share for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding March 31, 2014.

4. Capital of the Operating Partnership

Operating Partnership Units and LTIP Units

As of March 31, 2014, the Operating Partnership had outstanding 197,586,365 operating partnership units and 322,074 LTIP units. The Parent Company owned 97.3% of the partnership interests in the Operating Partnership at March 31, 2014, is the Operating Partnership’s general partner and is responsible for the management of the Operating Partnership’s business. As the general partner of the Operating Partnership, the Parent Company effectively controls the ability to issue common stock of the Parent Company upon a limited partner’s notice of redemption. In addition, the Parent Company has generally acquired OP units upon a limited partner’s notice of redemption in exchange for shares of its common stock. The redemption provisions of OP units owned by limited partners that permit the Parent Company to settle in either cash or common stock at the option of the Parent Company are further evaluated in accordance with applicable accounting guidance to determine whether temporary or permanent equity classification on the balance sheet is appropriate. The Operating Partnership evaluated this guidance, including the requirement to settle in unregistered shares, and determined that these OP units meet the requirements to qualify for presentation as permanent equity.

The redemption value of the OP units owned by the limited partners, not including the Parent Company, had such units been redeemed at March 31, 2014, was approximately $109 million based on the average closing price of the Parent Company’s common stock of $20.16 per share for the ten consecutive trading days immediately preceding March 31, 2014.

Table of Contents


(1)
On April 1, 2014, the Operating Partnership repaid in full the mortgage loan secured by the Company’s Center for Life Science | Boston property prior to its scheduled maturity date.
(2)
In August 2012, the Operating Partnership converted approximately $156.4 million of outstanding borrowings into British pounds sterling (“GBP”) equal to £100.0 million, which was designated as a net investment hedge to mitigate the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The principal balance represents the U.S. dollar amount based on the exchange rates of $1.66 to £1.00 and $1.65 to £1.00 at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The effective interest rate includes the impact of interest rate swap agreements (see Note 9 for further discussion of interest rate swap agreements).
(3)
At March 31, 2014, the Operating Partnership had additional borrowing capacity under the unsecured line of credit of up to approximately $674.0 million.

Exchangeable Senior Notes

The exchange rate for the Exchangeable Senior Notes may be adjusted under certain circumstances, including the payment of cash dividends in excess of $0.14 per share of common stock. The increase in the quarterly cash dividend through the first quarter of 2014 resulted in an increase in the exchange rate of the Exchangeable Senior Notes to 58.4745 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Exchangeable Senior Notes (effective conversion value of $17.10 per share), as of March 27, 2014, the Company’s ex-dividend date.

Net Investment Hedge

The Operating Partnership designated the GBP denominated debt under the Term Loan due 2017 as a net investment hedge. The Operating Partnership entered into this net investment hedge to protect a designated amount of the Operating Partnership’s net investment in a GBP functional currency subsidiary against the risk of adverse changes in the GBP/U.S. dollar exchange rate (foreign exchange risk). Variability in the GBP/U.S. dollar exchange rate impacts the Operating Partnership (a U.S. dollar functional currency entity) as the financial statements of the GBP functional currency subsidiary are translated each period, with the effect of changes in the GBP/U.S. dollar exchange rate being recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. When the net investment is sold or substantially liquidated, the balance of the translation adjustment accumulated in other comprehensive income will be reclassified into earnings. The Operating Partnership is hedging the risk of changes in the U.S. dollar equivalent value of a portion of its net investment in its GBP subsidiary attributable to changes in the GBP/U.S. dollar exchange rate during the period of investment during which the hedging instrument is outstanding.

Maturities of Long-Term Debt

As of March 31, 2014, principal payments due for the Operating Partnership’s consolidated indebtedness (excluding debt premiums and discounts) were as follows (in thousands):

Assumed Debts

On April 4, 2014, the Company completed an investment in two properties, 300 George Street and 100 College Street, in New Haven, Connecticut. In connection with that investment, the Operating Partnership assumed a $46.3 million mortgage note secured by the 300 George Street property and a construction loan with $21.7 million of outstanding borrowings that were used to partially fund the development of the 100 College Street property.

Notes due 2019


26

Table of Contents

On April 23, 2014, the Operating Partnership issued $400 million aggregate principal amount of its Notes due 2019. The Notes due 2019 are senior unsecured obligations of the Operating Partnership and rank equally in right of payment with all other senior unsecured indebtedness of the Operating Partnership. However, the Notes due 2019 are effectively subordinated to the Operating Partnership's existing and future mortgages and other secured indebtedness (to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness) and to all existing and future preferred equity and liabilities, whether secured or unsecured, of the Operating Partnership's subsidiaries, including guarantees provided by the Operating Partnership's subsidiaries under the credit agreement governing the Operating Partnership's unsecured line of credit and Term Loan due 2018. The Notes due 2019 bear interest at 2.625% per annum, priced at 99.408% of the principal amount to yield 2.752% to maturity. Interest is payable on May 1 and November 1 of each year beginning November 1, 2014 until the maturity date of May 1, 2019. The Operating Partnership’s obligations under the Notes due 2019 are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Parent Company.

6. Earnings Per Share of the Parent Company

Through March 31, 2014 all of the Company’s participating securities (including the OP units) received dividends/distributions at an equal dividend/distribution rate per share/unit. As a result, the portion of net income allocable to the weighted-average unvested restricted stock outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 has been deducted from net income available to common stockholders to calculate basic earnings per share. The calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 includes the outstanding OP units (both vested and unvested) in the weighted-average shares, and net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in the Operating Partnership has been added back to net income available to common stockholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Performance Units were dilutive to the calculation of diluted earnings per share as calculated, assuming that March 31, 2014 was the end date of the Performance Units' Performance Period. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Performance Units were dilutive to the calculation of diluted earnings per share as calculated, assuming that March 31, 2013 was the end date of the Performance Units' Performance Period. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the unvested restricted stock was anti-dilutive to the calculation of diluted earnings per share and was therefore excluded. As a result, diluted earnings per share was calculated based upon net income available to common stockholders less net income allocable to unvested restricted stock and distributions in excess of earnings attributable to unvested restricted stock. In addition, 10,525,410 and 10,259,496 shares issuable upon settlement of the exchange feature of the Exchangeable Senior Notes were anti-dilutive and were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per share based on the “if converted” method for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. No other shares were considered anti-dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2014 or 2013.

Computations of basic and diluted earnings per share (in thousands, except share data) were as follows:

7. Earnings Per Unit of the Operating Partnership

Through March 31, 2014, all of the Operating Partnership’s participating securities received distributions at an equal distribution rate per unit. As a result, the portion of net income allocable to the weighted-average unvested OP units outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, has been deducted from net income available to unitholders to calculate basic earnings per unit. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the unvested OP units were anti-dilutive to the calculation of earnings per unit and were therefore excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per unit, and diluted earnings per unit was calculated based upon net income attributable to unitholders. For the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Performance Units were dilutive to the calculation of diluted earnings per unit as calculated, assuming that March 31, 2014 was the end date of the Performance Units’ Performance Period. For the three months ended March 31, 2013, the Performance Units were dilutive to the calculation of diluted earnings per unit as calculated, assuming that March 31, 2013 was the end date of the Performance Units' Performance Period. In addition, 10,525,410 and 10,259,496 units issuable upon settlement of the exchange feature of the Exchangeable Senior Notes were anti-dilutive and were not included in the calculation of diluted earnings per unit based on the “if converted” method for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. No other units were considered anti-dilutive for the three months ended March 31, 2014 or 2013.

Computations of basic and diluted earnings per unit (in thousands, except unit data) were as follows:

9. Derivatives and Other Financial Instruments

The Company is exposed to the effect of changes in interest rates on the Operating Partnership’s U.S. dollar-LIBOR-based and GBP-LIBOR-based debt. The Company limits this risk by following established risk management policies and procedures including the use of derivatives. The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements related to the Operating Partnership’s LIBOR-based debt. To accomplish these objectives, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. The interest rate swaps hedge the Company’s exposure to the variability on expected cash flows attributable to changes in interest rates. These interest rate swaps are currently intended to hedge interest payments associated with the Operating Partnership’s Term Loan due 2017 and Term Loan due 2018.

As of March 31, 2014, the Company had deferred interest costs of approximately $33.7 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to forward starting swaps, which were settled with the corresponding counterparties in 2009. The forward starting swaps were entered into to mitigate the Company’s exposure to the variability in expected future cash flows attributable to changes in future interest rates associated with a forecasted issuance of fixed-rate debt, with interest payments for a minimum of ten years. The deferred interest costs will be amortized as additional interest expense over a remaining period of approximately five years.

Fair-value of derivative instruments does not include any related accrued interest payable, which is included in accrued expenses on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Derivative valuations are classified in Level 2 of the fair-value hierarchy. Assets are included in other assets and liabilities are included in accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Translations to U.S. dollars are based on exchange rates of $1.66 to £1.00 and $1.65 to £1.00 at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair-value of the derivative is initially reported in other comprehensive income (outside of earnings) and subsequently reclassified to earnings in the period in which the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt. The ineffective portion of the change in fair-value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. No portion of the derivatives designated as cash flow hedges were classified as ineffective during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013.

The following is a summary of the amount of loss recognized in other comprehensive income related to the derivative instruments (in thousands):

10. Fair-Value of Financial Instruments

The Company’s disclosures of estimated fair-value of financial instruments at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop estimated fair-value. The use of different market assumptions or estimation methods may have a material effect on the estimated fair-value amounts.

The carrying amounts for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities approximate fair-value due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

The Company utilizes quoted market prices to estimate the fair-value of its fixed-rate and variable-rate debt, when available. If quoted market prices are not available, the Company calculates the fair-value of its mortgage notes payable and other fixed-rate debt based on a currently available market rate assuming the loans are outstanding through maturity and considering the collateral. In determining the current market rate for fixed-rate debt, a market credit spread is added to the quoted yields on federal government treasury securities with similar terms to debt. In determining the current market rate for variable-rate debt, a market credit spread is added to the current effective interest rate. The carrying values of interest rate swaps are reflected at their fair-values.

At March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the aggregate fair-value and the carrying value of the Company’s financial instruments were as follows (in thousands):

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
As used herein, the terms “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company” refer to BioMed Realty Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and any of our subsidiaries, including BioMed Realty, L.P., a Maryland limited partnership of which BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. is the parent company and general partner, which may be referred to herein as the “operating partnership.”
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. We make statements in this report that are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In particular, statements pertaining to our capital resources, portfolio performance and

32

Table of Contents

results of operations contain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements involve numerous risks and uncertainties and you should not rely on them as predictions of future events. Forward-looking statements depend on assumptions, data or methods which may be incorrect or imprecise, and we may not be able to realize them. We do not guarantee that the transactions and events described will happen as described (or that they will happen at all). You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “seeks,” “approximately,” “intends,” “plans,” “estimates” or “anticipates” or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions. The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements: adverse economic or real estate developments in the life science industry or in our target markets, including the inability of our tenants to obtain funding to run their businesses; our dependence upon significant tenants; our failure to obtain necessary outside financing on favorable terms or at all, including the continued availability of our unsecured line of credit; general economic conditions, including downturns in the foreign, domestic and local economies; changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates; volatility in financial and securities markets; defaults on or non-renewal of leases by tenants; our inability to compete effectively; increased operating costs; our inability to successfully complete real estate acquisitions, developments and dispositions; risks and uncertainties affecting property development and construction; risks associated with tax credits, grants and other subsidies to fund development activities; our failure to effectively manage our growth and expansion into new markets or to successfully operate acquired properties and companies; our ownership of properties outside of the United States that subject us to different and potentially greater risks than those associated with our domestic operations; risks associated with our investments in loans, including borrower defaults and potential principal losses; reductions in asset valuations and related impairment charges; the loss of services of one or more of our executive officers; our failure to qualify or continue to qualify as a REIT; our failure to maintain our investment grade corporate credit ratings or a downgrade in our investment grade corporate credit ratings from one or more of the rating agencies; government approvals, actions and initiatives, including the need for compliance with environmental requirements; the effects of earthquakes and other natural disasters; lack of or insufficient amounts of insurance; and changes in real estate, zoning and other laws and increases in real property tax rates. We disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
The risks included here are not exhaustive, and additional factors could adversely affect our business and financial performance, including factors and risks included in other sections of this report. In addition, we discussed a number of material risks in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Those risks continue to be relevant to our performance and financial condition. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all such risk factors, nor can it assess the impact of all such risk factors on our company’s business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Given these risks and uncertainties, investors should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results.

Overview
We operate as a fully integrated, self-administered and self-managed REIT focused on acquiring, developing, owning, leasing and managing laboratory and office space for the life science industry. Our tenants primarily include biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, scientific research institutions, government agencies and other entities involved in the life science industry. Our properties are generally located in markets with well-established reputations as centers for scientific research, including Boston, San Francisco, San Diego, Maryland, New York/New Jersey, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Seattle and Cambridge (United Kingdom) and, through Wexford Science & Technology, LLC and related entities, or Wexford, with universities and their related medical systems.
At March 31, 2014, we owned or had interests in a portfolio of properties with an aggregate of approximately 16.3 million rentable square feet.
The following reflects the classification of our properties between stabilized properties (operating properties in which more than 90% of the rentable square footage is under lease), lease up properties (operating properties in which less than 90% of the rentable square footage is under lease), development properties (existing properties that are currently under development through ground up construction), redevelopment properties (properties that are currently being prepared for their intended use), unconsolidated partnership properties (properties which we partially own, but are not included in our consolidated financial statements), pre-development properties (development properties that are engaged in activities related to planning, entitlement or other preparations for future construction), and development potential (representing management's estimates of rentable square footage if development of these properties was undertaken) at March 31, 2014:

Factors Which May Influence Future Operations
Our long-term corporate strategy is to continue to focus on acquiring, developing, owning, leasing and managing laboratory and office space for the life science industry. As of March 31, 2014, our total operating portfolio was 91.5% leased on a weighted-average basis to 304 tenants. As of December 31, 2013, our total operating portfolio was 91.4% leased on a weighted-average basis to 296 tenants.
Our leasing strategy for 2014 focuses on leasing vacant space, negotiating renewals for leases scheduled to expire during the year, and identifying new tenants or existing tenants seeking additional space to occupy the spaces for which we are unable to negotiate such renewals. We may proceed with additional new developments and acquisitions, as real estate and capital market conditions permit. As of March 31, 2014, leases representing 5.2% and 4.0% of our leased square feet were scheduled to expire during 2014 and 2015, respectively. The success of our leasing and development strategy depends on, among other things, general economic conditions, real estate market conditions and life science industry trends in our target markets in the United States and the United Kingdom.
As a result of changing market conditions and the recent economic recession, we believe that the fair-values of some of our properties may have declined below their respective carrying values. However, to the extent that a property has a substantial remaining estimated useful life and management does not believe that the property will be disposed of prior to the end of its useful life, it would be unusual for undiscounted cash flows to be insufficient to recover the property’s carrying value. We presently have the ability and intent to continue to own and operate our existing portfolio of properties and estimated undiscounted future cash flows from the operation of the properties are expected to be sufficient to recover the carrying value of each property. Accordingly, we do not believe that the carrying value of any of our properties is impaired. If our ability and/or our intent with regard to the operation of our properties otherwise dictate an earlier sale date, an impairment loss may be recognized to reduce the property to fair-value and such loss could be material.
A discussion of additional factors which may influence future operations can be found below under Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” and in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Critical Accounting Policies
A complete discussion of our critical accounting policies can be found in our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

Recurring capital expenditures exclude (a) items associated with the expansion of a building or its improvements, (b) renovations to a building which change the underlying classification of the building, incurred to prepare or condition the premises for its intended purpose (for example, from office to laboratory) or (c) capital improvements that represent an addition to the property rather than the replacement of property, plant or equipment. Includes revenue enhancing and non-revenue enhancing recurring capital expenditures.

Total capital expenditures increased $30.6 million to $69.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 from $39.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The change was primarily the result of projects under development in the Wexford portfolio, which was acquired in May 2013. See the section entitled “Liquidity and Capital Resources of BioMed Realty, L.P.” below for further information on obligations for capital expenditures expected to be incurred in the future.

Current annualized base rent per square foot - GAAP basis is the monthly contractual rent per square foot as of the period end, or if rent has not yet commenced, the first monthly rent payment per square foot due at each rent commencement date, multiplied by 12 months (as adjusted for straight line rent, fair-value lease revenue and lease incentive revenue).
(2)
During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, we recorded lease termination revenue of approximately $5.5 million and $24.0 million, respectively. Lease termination revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2014 primarily related to the early termination of leases at our 4570 Executive Drive property. Lease termination revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2013 primarily related to the termination of a lease with Elan Corporation at our Science Center at Oyster Point property for which Elan paid us $46.5 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we also recorded $2.7 million of interest income related to our Construction Loan.
(3)
Adjustments to cash basis exclude adjustments to expenses accrued in rental operations, but include straight line rents, fair-value lease revenue, lease incentive revenue, bad debt expense and other revenue (including lease termination revenue).

Net Operating Income. Net operating income decreased $3.5 million to $116.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $119.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. This decrease was primarily due to the higher lease termination revenue during the three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to the same period in 2014. Excluding the impact of lease terminations, net operating income increased $14.9 million primarily due to the following:

The acquisition of properties totaling approximately 2.9 million square feet in 2013 contributed an additional $11.4 million in net operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Same property net operating income, excluding the impact of lease terminations, increased approximately $3.6 million to $99.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $95.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013.

Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization expense increased $1.6 million to $62.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $60.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of properties totaling approximately 2.9 million square feet with an acquisition date fair-value of $842.6 million in 2013.
General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased $1.9 million to $11.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $10.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase was primarily due to higher staffing levels reflecting our merger with Wexford.
Acquisition-Related Expenses. Acquisition-related expenses decreased to $1.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Acquisition-related expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2014 primarily related to our subsequent acquisition of 300 George Street and 100 College Street in New Haven, Connecticut in April 2014. Acquisition-related expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2013 primarily related to our subsequent merger with Wexford in May 2013.
Interest Expense, Net. Interest cost incurred for the three months ended March 31, 2014 totaled $32.2 million compared to $28.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. Total interest cost incurred increased primarily as a result of higher average debt balances outstanding during 2014 due to the assumption of mortgages in our merger with Wexford and the closing of our Term Loan due 2018. Interest expense, net increased $2.1 million to $28.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $25.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013, primarily as a result of the increase in interest cost incurred, partially offset by a $1.4 million increase in capitalized interest related to increased development in 2014.
Interest expense, net consisted of the following (in thousands):

Other Income / (Expense). Other income of $8.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 was primarily due to a $9.3 million gain on sale of our investments in certain publicly-traded companies, partially offset by $1.3 million other-than-temporary impairment relating to our cost basis investments in a privately-held company. Other expense of $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013 was primarily due to a $2.8 million impairment charge relating to our cost basis investment in, and notes receivable from, a privately-held company that was in liquidation.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased $17.4 million to $77.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $60.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The increase was primarily due to cash flow generated by acquisitions and cash rent starts on new leases.

Net cash used in investing activities decreased $104.1 million to $99.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $203.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease primarily reflects the acquisitions of Woodside Technology Park and The Campus at Lincoln Centre during three months ended March 31, 2013 compared to no acquisitions completed during the three months ended March 31, 2014, partially offset by capital expenditures on projects under development in the Wexford portfolio, which we acquired in May 2013.

Net cash provided by financing activities decreased $95.1 million to $45.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $140.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013. The decrease primarily resulted from the net impact of the proceeds from issuance of common stock and the redemption of our Series A preferred stock in the three months ended March 31, 2013, partially offset by higher dividend payments in the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Funds from Operations


39

Table of Contents

We present funds from operations, or FFO, and FFO excluding acquisition-related expenses, or CFFO, available to common shares and OP units because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of our operating performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO and CFFO when reporting their results. FFO and CFFO are intended to exclude GAAP historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and related assets, which assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. Because FFO and CFFO exclude depreciation and amortization unique to real estate, gains and losses from property dispositions and extraordinary items, and, in the case of CFFO, acquisition-related expenses, they provide performance measures that, when compared year over year, reflect the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities and interest costs, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. We compute FFO in accordance with standards established by the Board of Governors of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT. As defined by NAREIT, FFO represents net income (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding gains (or losses) from sales of depreciable property, impairment charges on depreciable real estate, real estate related depreciation and amortization (excluding amortization of loan origination costs) and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. Our computations may differ from the methodologies for calculating FFO and CFFO utilized by other equity REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. Further, FFO and CFFO do not represent amounts available for management’s discretionary use because of needed capital replacement or expansion, debt service obligations, or other commitments and uncertainties. FFO and CFFO should not be considered alternatives to net income / (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) as indicators of our financial performance or to cash flow from operating activities (computed in accordance with GAAP) as indicators of our liquidity, nor are they indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to pay dividends or make distributions.

In this “Liquidity and Capital Resources of BioMed Realty Trust, Inc.” section, the term the “Company” refers only to BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. on an unconsolidated basis, and excludes the operating partnership and all other subsidiaries. For further discussion of the liquidity and capital resources of the Company on a consolidated basis, see the section entitled “Liquidity and Capital Resources of BioMed Realty, L.P.” below.
The Company’s business is operated primarily through the operating partnership. The Company issues public equity from time to time, but does not otherwise generate any capital itself or conduct any business itself, other than incurring certain expenses in operating as a public company which are fully reimbursed by the operating partnership. The Company itself does not hold any indebtedness, and its only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the operating partnership. The Company’s principal funding requirement is the payment of dividends on its common stock. The Company’s principal source of funding for its dividend payments is distributions it receives from the operating partnership.
As of March 31, 2014, the Company owned an approximate 97.3% partnership interest and other limited partners, including some of our directors, executive officers and their affiliates, owned the remaining 2.7% partnership interest (including LTIP units) in the operating partnership. As the sole general partner of the operating partnership, BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. has the full, exclusive and complete responsibility for the operating partnership’s day-to-day management and control.
The liquidity of the Company is dependent on the operating partnership’s ability to make sufficient distributions to the Company. The primary cash requirement of the Company is its payment of dividends to its stockholders. The Company also guarantees some of the operating partnership’s debt, as discussed further in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere herein. If the operating partnership fails to fulfill certain of its debt requirements, which trigger the Company’s guarantee obligations, then the Company will be required to fulfill its cash payment commitments under such guarantees. However, the Company’s only significant asset is its investment in the operating partnership.
We believe the operating partnership’s sources of working capital, specifically its cash flow from operations, and borrowings available under its unsecured line of credit, are adequate for it to make its distribution payments to the Company and, in turn, for the Company to make its dividend payments to its stockholders. However, we cannot assure you that the operating partnership’s sources of capital will continue to be available at all or in amounts sufficient to meet its needs, including its ability to make distribution payments to the Company. The unavailability of capital could adversely affect the operating partnership’s ability to pay its distributions to the Company, which would in turn, adversely affect the Company’s ability to pay cash dividends to its stockholders.
Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds to pay for future dividends expected to be paid to the Company’s stockholders, operating expenses and other expenditures directly associated with our properties, interest expense and scheduled principal payments on outstanding indebtedness, general and administrative expenses, funding the Construction Loan, construction projects, capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions.

The Company may from time to time seek to repurchase or redeem the operating partnership’s outstanding debt, the Company’s shares of common stock or other securities in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or redemptions, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.
For the Company to maintain its qualification as a REIT, it must pay dividends to its stockholders aggregating annually at least 90% of its REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gains. While historically the Company has satisfied this distribution requirement by making cash distributions to its stockholders, it may choose to satisfy this requirement by making distributions of cash or other property, including, in limited circumstances, the Company’s own stock. As a result of this distribution requirement, the operating partnership cannot rely on retained earnings to fund its ongoing operations to the same extent that other companies whose parent companies are not REITs can. The Company may need to continue to raise capital in the equity markets to fund the operating partnership’s working capital needs, acquisitions and developments.
The Company is a well-known seasoned issuer with an effective shelf registration statement that allows the Company to register an unspecified amount of various classes of equity securities and the operating partnership to register an unspecified amount of various classes of debt securities. As circumstances warrant, the Company may issue equity from time to time on an opportunistic basis, dependent upon market conditions and available pricing. When the Company receives proceeds from preferred or common equity issuances, it is required by the operating partnership’s partnership agreement to contribute the proceeds from its equity issuances to the operating partnership in exchange for preferred or common partnership units of the operating partnership. The operating partnership may use the proceeds to repay debt, to develop new or existing properties, to acquire properties or for general corporate purposes.

Table of Contents

In this “Liquidity and Capital Resources of BioMed Realty, L.P.” section, the terms “we,” “our” and “us” refer to the operating partnership together with its consolidated subsidiaries or the operating partnership and BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. together with their consolidated subsidiaries, as the context requires. BioMed Realty Trust, Inc., or our Parent Company, is our sole general partner and consolidates our results of operations for financial reporting purposes. Because we operate on a consolidated basis with our Parent Company, the section entitled “Liquidity and Capital Resources of BioMed Realty Trust, Inc.” should be read in conjunction with this section to understand our liquidity and capital resources on a consolidated basis.
Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds to pay for future dividends expected to be paid to our Parent Company’s stockholders, operating expenses and other expenditures directly associated with our properties, interest expense and scheduled principal payments on outstanding indebtedness, general and administrative expenses, construction projects, capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing commissions. The secured construction loan with a wholly-owned subsidiary of PREI I LLC has a maturity date of August 13, 2014. At maturity, PREI I LLC may refinance the secured construction loan, depending on market conditions and the availability of credit, or it may repay the principal balance through capital contributions of its members.

The principal balance represents the U.S. dollar amount based on the exchange rate of $1.66 to £1.00 at March 31, 2014.
Certain of our mortgage loans include financial covenants which require us to maintain minimum levels of debt service coverage and a minimum amount of net worth. Management believes that we were in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2014.

On April 1, 2014, we repaid in full the mortgage loan secured by our Center for Life Science | Boston property in Boston, Massachusetts prior to its scheduled maturity date. The then-outstanding loan amount of approximately $333.4 million, which bore interest at a fixed rate of 7.75% per annum, was paid off by borrowings under our $900 million unsecured line of credit.

On April 4, 2014, we completed an investment in two properties, 300 George Street and 100 College Street, in New Haven, Connecticut. In connection with that investment, we assumed a $46.3 million mortgage note secured by the 300 George Street property and a construction loan with $21.7 million of outstanding borrowings that were used to partially fund the development

of the 100 College Street property. In addition, we expect to incur approximately $102 million of additional construction costs to complete the development of the 100 College Street property.

On April 23, 2014, we issued $400.0 million principal amount of the Notes due 2019, which are governed by a base indenture and supplemental indenture, dated March 30, 2011 and April 23, 2014, respectively, among us, as issuer, our Parent Company, as guarantor, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee.

The credit facilities governing our unsecured line of credit, Term Loan due 2017, and Term Loan due 2018 include certain restrictions and covenants relating to, among other things, overall leverage and unsecured leverage ratios, fixed charge coverage, unsecured debt service coverage, maximum amount of secured indebtedness and certain investment limitations. Management believes that we were in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2014.

The terms of the indentures governing the Notes due 2016, the Notes due 2020 and the Notes due 2022 require compliance with various financial covenants, including limits on the amount of total leverage and secured debt maintained by us and which require us to maintain minimum levels of debt service coverage. Management believes that we were in compliance with these covenants as of March 31, 2014.
Our long-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of funds to pay for scheduled debt maturities, construction obligations, renovations, expansions, capital commitments and other non-recurring capital expenditures that need to be made periodically, and the costs associated with acquisitions of properties that we pursue. At March 31, 2014, we had acquired a participating interest in the Construction Loan and entered into construction contracts and lease agreements, with a remaining commitment totaling approximately $364.8 million related to funding the Construction Loan, tenant improvements, leasing commissions and construction-related capital expenditures.
We expect to satisfy our short-term liquidity requirements through our existing working capital and cash provided by our operations, the issuance of long-term secured and unsecured indebtedness, the issuance of additional equity or debt securities and the use of net proceeds from the disposition of non-strategic assets. Our rental revenues, provided by our leases, generally provide cash inflows to meet our debt service obligations, pay general and administrative expenses, and fund regular distributions. We expect to satisfy our long-term liquidity requirements through our existing working capital, cash provided by operations, long-term secured and unsecured indebtedness and the issuance of additional equity or debt securities. We also expect to use funds available under our unsecured line of credit to finance acquisition and development activities and capital expenditures on an interim basis. We also expect to utilize tax credits, grants and other subsidies from time to time to fund development activities. In addition, we have an investment grade credit rating, which we believe will provide us with continued access to the unsecured debt markets, providing us with an additional source of long term financing.

In August 2012, the Operating Partnership converted approximately $156.4 million of outstanding borrowings of the Term Loan due 2017 into British pounds sterling, or GBP, equal to £100.0 million, which was designated as a net investment hedge to mitigate the risk of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. $166.5 million of the principal balance represents the U.S. dollar amount based on the exchange rate of $1.66 to £1.00 at March 31, 2014.

Aggregate amount based on the market closing price of the common stock of our Parent Company of $20.49 per share on the last trading day of the quarter. Limited partners who have been issued OP units have the right to require the operating partnership to redeem part or all of their OP units, which right with respect to LTIP units is subject to vesting and the satisfaction of other conditions. We may elect to redeem those OP units in exchange for shares of our Parent Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. At March 31, 2014, 192,502,965 of the outstanding OP units had been issued to our Parent Company upon receipt of the net proceeds from the issuance of an equal number of shares of our Parent Company’s common stock.
Our organizational documents do not limit the amount of indebtedness that we may incur, and we may modify our financing strategy from time to time in light of current economic or market conditions including, but not limited to, the relative costs of debt and equity capital, market conditions for debt and equity securities and fluctuations in the market price of our Parent Company’s common stock. In addition, the terms of the indentures governing the Notes due 2016, Notes due 2019, Notes due 2020 and Notes due 2022, and the credit facilities governing our unsecured line of credit, Term Loan due 2017 and Term Loan due 2018 require compliance with various financial covenants and ratios, which are discussed in detail above and in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained elsewhere herein.
We may from time to time seek to repurchase or redeem our outstanding debt or OP units (including in connection with the repurchase or redemption of an equivalent number of shares of common stock by our Parent Company) or other securities, and our Parent Company may seek to repurchase or redeem its outstanding shares of common stock or other securities, in each case in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or redemptions, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of March 31, 2014, we had investments in the following unconsolidated partnerships: (1) BioPark Fremont, LLC, which owns a land parcel located in Baltimore; (2) McKellar Court limited partnership, which owns a single tenant occupied property located in San Diego; and (3) two limited liability companies with PREI, which own a portfolio of properties located in Cambridge, Massachusetts (see Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere herein for more information).
BioPark Fremont, LLC is a VIE; however, we are not the primary beneficiary. We will receive 50% of the operating cash flows and 50% of the gains upon sale of the property. We account for our membership interest using the equity method. The assets of BioPark Fremont, LLC were $2.6 million and $2.7 million at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The liabilities were $2.8 million at each of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Our equity in net loss of BioPark Fremont, LLC was $19,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014.
The McKellar Court partnership is a VIE; however, we are not the primary beneficiary. The limited partner at McKellar Court is the only tenant in the property and will bear a disproportionate amount of any losses. We, as the general partner, will receive 22% of the operating cash flows and 75% of the gains upon sale of the property. We account for our general partner interest using the equity method. The assets of the McKellar Court partnership were $13.9 million and $13.8 million at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The liabilities were $10.7 million at each of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. Our equity in net income of the McKellar Court partnership was $293,000 and $226,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. In December 2009, we provided funding in the form of a promissory note to the McKellar Court partnership in the amount of $10.3 million, which matures at the earlier of (1) January 1, 2020, or (2) the day that the limited partner exercises an option to purchase our ownership interest. Interest-only payments on the promissory note are due monthly at a fixed rate of 8.15% (the rate may adjust higher after January 1, 2015), with the principal balance outstanding due at maturity.
PREI II LLC is a VIE; however, we are not the primary beneficiary. PREI will bear the majority of any losses incurred. PREI I LLC does not qualify as a VIE. In addition, consolidation is not required as we do not control the limited liability companies. In connection with the formation of the PREI joint ventures in April 2007, we contributed 20% of the initial capital. However, the amount of cash flow distributions that we receive may be more or less based on the nature of the circumstances underlying the cash distributions due to provisions in the operating agreements governing the distribution of funds to each member and the occurrence of extraordinary cash flow events. We account for our member interests using the equity method for both limited liability companies. The assets of the PREI joint ventures were $264.0 million and $255.5 million at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, and the liabilities were $162.0 million and $150.7 million at March 31, 2014 and December 31,

2013, respectively. Our equity in net loss of the PREI joint ventures was $412,000 and $545,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
We are the primary beneficiary in five other VIEs, consisting of single-tenant properties in which the tenant has a fixed-price purchase option, and VIEs at nine properties with tax credit structures, which are consolidated and reflected in our consolidated financial statements.

In accordance with the loan agreement, Prudential Insurance Corporation of America has guaranteed repayment of the secured loan. At maturity, PREI I LLC may refinance the secured loan facility, depending on market conditions and the availability of credit, or it may repay the principal balance through capital contributions of its members.

Cash Distribution Policy

We elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2004. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including the requirement that we distribute currently at least 90% of our ordinary taxable income to our stockholders. It is our intention to comply with these requirements and maintain our REIT status. As a REIT, we generally will not be subject to U.S. corporate federal, state or local income taxes on taxable income we distribute currently (in accordance with the Code and applicable regulations) to our stockholders. If we fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, we will be subject to U.S. federal, state and local income taxes at regular corporate rates and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for subsequent tax years. Even if we qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we may be subject to certain foreign, state and local taxes on our income and to federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed taxable income, i.e., taxable income not distributed in the amounts and in the time frames prescribed by the Code and applicable regulations thereunder.

While we most recently paid a dividend on shares of common stock at an annual dividend rate of $1.00 per share, the actual dividend payable in the future will be determined by our board of directors based upon the circumstances at the time of declaration and, as a result, the actual dividend payable in the future may vary from the current rate. The decision to declare and pay dividends on shares of our common stock in the future, as well as the timing, amount and composition of any such future dividends, will be at the sole discretion of our board of directors in light of conditions then existing, including our earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, debt maturities, the availability of debt and equity capital, applicable REIT and legal restrictions and general overall economic conditions and other factors.

(1) On March 15, 2013, we redeemed all 7,920,000 outstanding shares of our Series A preferred stock for approximately $198.0 million, or $25.00 per share, net of accrued dividends of approximately $2.4 million, or $0.30217 per share.

Inflation
Some of our leases contain provisions designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. These provisions generally increase rental rates during the terms of the leases either at fixed rates or indexed escalations (based on the Consumer Price Index or other measures). We may be adversely impacted by inflation on the leases that do not contain indexed escalation provisions. In addition, most of our leases require the tenant to pay an allocable share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes and insurance. This may reduce our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation, assuming our properties remain leased and tenants fulfill their obligations to reimburse us for such expenses.
Our unsecured line of credit, portions of our Term Loan due 2017 and Term Loan due 2018, the outstanding balance of a mortgage secured by a property in Pennsylvania and our proportionate share of the outstanding balance of the PREI joint ventures’ secured construction loan bear interest at variable rates, which will be influenced by changes in short-term interest rates, and will be sensitive to inflation.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Our future income, cash flows and fair-values relevant to financial instruments depend upon prevailing market interest rates. Market risk is the exposure to loss resulting from changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and equity prices. Many factors, including governmental monetary and tax policies, domestic and international economic and political considerations and other factors that are beyond our control contribute to interest rate risk, equity price risk and foreign currency exchange rate risk.

Includes the hedged portions of our Term Loan due 2017 and Term Loan due 2018, which bear interest at LIBOR-indexed variable interest rates, plus a credit spread. On August 2, 2012, we converted approximately $156.4 million of outstanding borrowings of the Term Loan due 2017 into GBP equal to £100.0 million. The principal balance represents the U.S. dollar amount based on the exchange rate of $1.66 to £1.00 at March 31, 2014. The stated effective rate for the variable interest hedged debt includes the impact of our interest rate swap agreements. We have entered into four U.S. dollar interest rate swaps, which are intended to have the effect of initially fixing the interest rate on $200.0 million of the outstanding amount under our Term Loan due 2017 at a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 2.81% for a five-year term (including applicable credit spreads for the underlying debt), subject to adjustment based on our credit ratings. We have entered into two GBP interest rate swaps, which are intended to have the effect of initially fixing the interest rate on £100.0 million of the outstanding amount under our Term Loan due 2017 at approximately 2.39% for the remaining term of the Term Loan due 2017 (including applicable credit spreads for the underlying debt), subject to adjustment based on our credit ratings. On September 25, 2013, we entered into three U.S. dollar interest rate swaps, which are intended to have the effect of initially fixing the interest rate on $200.0 million of the outstanding amount under our Term Loan due 2018 at a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 2.20% for a three-year term (including applicable credit spreads for the underlying debt), subject to adjustment based on our credit ratings.

Includes one variable rate mortgage, the unhedged portions of our Term Loan due 2017 and Term Loan due 2018 and our unsecured line of credit, which bear interest at LIBOR-indexed variable interest rates, plus a credit spread.
To determine the fair-value of our outstanding consolidated indebtedness, we utilize quoted market prices to estimate the fair-value, when available. If quoted market prices are not available, we calculate the fair-value of our mortgage notes payable and other fixed-rate debt based on an estimate of current lending rates, assuming the debt is outstanding through maturity and considering the notes’ collateral. In determining the current market rate for fixed-rate debt, a market credit spread is added to the quoted yields on federal government treasury securities with similar terms to debt. In determining the current market rate for variable-rate debt, a market credit spread is added to the current effective interest rate. At March 31, 2014, the fair-value of all fixed-rate debt was estimated to be $1.9 billion compared to the net carrying value of $1.8 billion (including debt premiums and discounts). At March 31, 2014, the fair-value of all variable-rate debt was estimated to be $987.9 million compared to the net carrying value of $986.1 million. We do not believe that the interest rate risk represented by our fixed-rate debt or the risk of changes in the credit spread related to our variable-rate debt was material as of March 31, 2014 in relation to total assets of $6.1 billion and equity market capitalization of $4.1 billion of BioMed Realty Trust, Inc.’s common stock, and BioMed Realty, L.P.’s OP units.
Based on the unhedged outstanding balances of our unsecured line of credit, our Term Loan due 2017, our Term Loan due 2018 and our proportionate share of the outstanding balance of the PREI joint ventures’ secured construction loan at March 31, 2014, a 1% change in interest rates would change our interest costs by approximately $4.5 million per year. This amount was determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our financial instruments. This analysis does not consider the effect of any change in overall economic activity that could occur in that environment. Further, in the event of a change of the magnitude discussed above, we may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, this analysis assumes no changes in our financial structure.
In order to modify and manage the interest rate characteristics of our outstanding debt and to limit the effects of interest rate risks on our operations, we may utilize a variety of financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, caps and treasury locks in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a related financial instrument. The use of these types of instruments to hedge our exposure to changes in interest rates carries additional risks, including counterparty credit risk, the enforceability of hedging contracts and the risk that unanticipated and significant changes in interest rates will cause a significant loss of basis in the contract. To limit counterparty credit risk we will seek to enter into such agreements with major financial institutions with high credit ratings. There can be no assurance that we will be able to adequately protect against the foregoing risks and will ultimately realize an economic benefit that exceeds the related amounts incurred in connection with engaging in such hedging activities. We do not enter into such contracts for speculative or trading purposes.
Equity Price Risk
 
We have exposure to equity price market risk because of our equity investments in certain publicly-traded companies and privately-held entities. We classify investments in publicly traded companies as “available for sale” and, consequently, record them on our condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair-value, with unrealized gains or losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. Investments in privately-held entities are generally accounted for under the cost method because we do not influence any of the operating or financial policies of the entities in which we invest. For all investments, we recognize other-than-temporary declines in value against earnings in the same period during which the decline in value was deemed to have occurred. There is no assurance that future declines in value will not have a material adverse impact on our future results of operations. A 10% decrease in the fair-value of our equity investments as of March 31, 2014, would equal approximately $5.0 million.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
 
We have exposure to foreign currency exchange rate risk related to our subsidiary operating in the United Kingdom. The functional currency of our foreign subsidiary is GBP. Gains or losses resulting from the translation of our foreign subsidiary’s balance sheet and statement of income are included in other comprehensive income. Gains or losses will be reflected in our statements of income when there is a sale of our investment in these operations or upon a complete or substantially complete liquidation of the investment. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, total revenues from our foreign subsidiary were $4.8 million and $4.5 million, respectively, which represented 2.8% of our total revenues for each period. Our net investments in properties outside the United States were $190.7 million and $190.2 million at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. On August 2, 2012, we converted a portion of the outstanding borrowings of our Term Loan due 2017 into GBP, which we designated as a net investment hedge to mitigate our risk to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. As a result, our unhedged net investment in properties outside the United States was $24.2 million as of March 31, 2014.
