Explanation of Responses:

1. Represents LTIP Units granted pursuant to the Boston Properties, Inc.'s ("BPI"), the Issuer's general partner, 2021 Multi-Year Long-Term Incentive Program (the "2021 Program"). Conditioned upon minimum allocations to the capital accounts of the LTIP Units for federal income tax purposes, each LTIP Unit may be converted, at the election of the holder, into a common unit of limited partnership interest in the Issuer ("Common OP Unit").Each Common OP Unit acquired upon conversion of an LTIP Unit may be redeemed, at the election of the holder, for cash equal to the then fair market value of a share of common stock of BPI except that BPI may, at its election, acquire each Common OP Unit so presented for redemption for one share of common stock of BPI. LTIP Units have no expiration date.

2. The 24,481 LTIP Units may be earned based on the achievement of certain performance criteria based on BPI's total shareholder return over a three-year performance period ending on February 1, 2024. Any LTIP Units earned pursuant to the 2021 Program will vest in full on February 1, 2024, with each earned LTIP Unit and Common OP Unit acquired upon conversion of such LTIP Unit subject to an additional post-vesting holding period pursuant to which such LTIP Unit and Common OP Unit generally may not be transferred, and the redemption right associated with the Common OP Unit may not be exercised, until one year after the vesting date.
