Item 5.02		Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On March 2, 2011, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Trustees awarded 2010 annual incentives and also awarded equity-based long-term incentives for our senior executives and set their 2011 base salaries. The tables below reflect awards to those of our executive officers who were identified as named executive officers in the proxy statement for our 2010 annual meeting of shareholders.

2010 Annual Incentive Awards

The table below sets forth the annual incentives, which are payable in cash, awarded to each of the named executives:


	2010 Annual
Name	Incentive
Gerard H. Sweeney	$	900,000
Howard M. Sipzner	$	317,000
Brad A. Molotsky	$	232,400
Robert K. Wiberg	$	164,588
H. Jeffrey DeVuono	$	235,000

Long—Term Equity Awards: Restricted Shares; Performance Units; Options

The table below sets forth the equity-based long-term incentives awarded to each of the named executives. These awards were allocated between restricted common shares (“Restricted Shares”); restricted performance share units (“Performance Units”); and options (“Options”) as indicated in the table below.


	Restricted
	Shares		Performance		Share Options
Name	Awarded (#)		Units (#)		Awarded (#)
Gerard H. Sweeney		46,102		32,930		189,701
Howard M. Sipzner		18,441		13,172		59,621
Brad A. Molotsky		14,250		10,178		46,070
Robert K. Wiberg		9,954		7,110		32,182
H. Jeffrey DeVuono		9,954		7,110		32,182

Restricted Shares. Each Restricted Share vests on April 15, 2014 and is settled for one common share. Vesting would accelerate upon a change in control or if the recipient of the award were to die, become disabled or retire in a qualifying retirement prior to the vesting date. In the case of our President and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, vesting would also accelerate if we were to terminate him without cause, or if he were to resign for good reason, under his employment agreement. We pay dividend equivalents on Restricted Shares prior to the vesting date.

-2-

Performance Units. Performance units represent the right to earn common shares. The number of common shares, if any, deliverable to award recipients depends on our performance based on our total return to shareholders during the three year period Measurement Period that commenced on January 1, 2011 and that ends on the earlier of December 31, 2013 or the date of a change of control, as defined in our 2011-2013 Restricted Performance Share Unit Program (the “Performance Unit Program”) compared to the total return to shareholders for the Measurement Period of the real estate investment trusts included in the MSCI US REIT Index’s gross index (the “Index REITs”). If our total return to shareholders over the Measurement Period places us below the 25th percentile of the Index REITs, then no shares will be earned. If our total return to shareholders over the Measurement Period places us at or above the 25th percentile of the Index REITs, then a percentage of the awards ranging from 50% to 200% will be earned. Dividends are deemed credited to the performance units accounts and are applied to acquire more performance units for the account of the unit holder at the price per common share ending on the dividend payment date. If earned, awards will be paid in common shares in an amount equal to the number of performance units in the holder’s account at the end of the Measurement Period. Participants in the program may elect to defer receipt of common shares earned into our Deferred Compensation Plan. In the event of the participant’s death, disability or qualifying retirement, he will be eligible to receive shares (if any) under the program as if the Measurement Period ended on the last day of the month in which the termination occurred.

Options. Each Option has a per share exercise price of $11.89 (equal to the closing price of our common shares on March 2, 2011), vests ratably over three years and has a ten-year term. Vesting of the Options would accelerate upon the same events that would trigger accelerated vesting of the Restricted Shares.

The grants of Restricted Shares, Performance Units and Options were made under our Amended and Restated 1997 Long-Term Incentive Plan. The award agreements for the Restricted Shares, Performance Units and Options will be individualized for each recipient and will be in substantially the forms attached as exhibits to this Form 8-K.

2011 Base Salaries

The table below sets forth the 2011 base salaries established by our Compensation Committee for our named executives.


Name	2011 Base Salary

BRANDYWINE REALTY TRUST
AMENDED AND RESTATED 1997 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN

RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT AND DIVIDEND EQUIVALENT RIGHTS
AWARD AGREEMENT

ISSUED PURSUANT TO THE
2011-2013 RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT PROGRAM

This RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT AND DIVIDEND EQUIVALENT RIGHTS AWARD AGREEMENT (the “Award Agreement”), dated as of the 2d day of March, 2011, is between Brandywine Realty Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Trust”), and (the “Grantee”).

WHEREAS, the Trust’s Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) established the Brandywine Realty Trust 2011-2013 Restricted Performance Share Unit Program (the “Program”) under the Brandywine Realty Trust Amended and Restated 1997 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”);

WHEREAS, the Plan provides for the award of “Performance Shares” (as defined in the Plan) (which award is referred to as a “Restricted Performance Share Unit” or an “RSU” in the Program and herein) to participants following the attainment of a designated corporate performance goal;

WHEREAS, the Program treats dividend equivalent rights (“DERs” as defined the Program) as additional Performance Shares;

WHEREAS, the Program designates a corporate performance goal that determines if and the extent to which Shares will become deliverable to a participant in the Program based on his or her Restricted Performance Share Units;

WHEREAS, the Grantee may defer delivery of his or her Shares (if deliverable) until a later date and, if so deferred, the Grantee will be awarded additional DERs with respect to such Shares; and

WHEREAS, DERs awarded with respect to Restricted Performance Share Units and deferred Shares will be expressed as a dollar amount, which will be applied to “purchase” additional Restricted Performance Share Units and notional shares of the Trust, as applicable (on which DERs will also be awarded), and will be settled in actual shares of the Trust (and in cash to the extent the Grantee’s account holds a fractional Restricted Performance Share Unit or notional share);

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the legal sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

1. Potential Award of Shares

(a) The Grantee is hereby awarded a number of initial “Base Units” (as defined in the Program) equal to Restricted Performance Share Units. The Grantee’s Base Units will increase in number pursuant to the “purchase” of additional Restricted Performance Share Units with DERs, as described in subsections (b) and (e) below.

(b) The Grantee is hereby awarded a DER with respect to each of his or her Base Units, as such number of units may be increased from time to time pursuant to subsection (e) below. If the Grantee makes a deferral election under Section 4(f) of the Program, the Grantee shall also be awarded DERs with respect to each deferred Share.

(c) The Trust hereby promises to deliver to the Grantee the number of Shares that Grantee becomes entitled to under Section 4 of the Program (if any). Unless the Grantee elects to make a deferral election pursuant to Section 4(f) of the Program, in which case Shares will be delivered in accordance with such election, the Shares shall be delivered on (i) March 1, 2014 or (ii) in the event of a “Change in Control” (as defined in the Program) prior to January 1, 2014, on the fifth calendar day after the end of the “Measurement Period” (as defined in the Program) or (iii) in the event of termination of a Participant covered in Section 4(c) of the Program, on or before the thirtieth day after the date of termination of the Participant (as applicable, the “Delivery Date”). This Award Agreement is in all respects limited and conditioned as hereinafter provided, and is subject in all respects to the terms and conditions of the Program and the Plan now in effect and as they may be amended from time to time; provided, that no amendment may adversely affect an issued Award Agreement without the written consent of the affected Grantee. The terms and conditions of the Program and the Plan are incorporated herein by reference, made a part hereof, and shall control in the event of any conflict with any other terms of the Award Agreement.

(d) If, on or prior to the last day of the Measurement Period, (i) the Grantee incurs a Disability Termination, (ii) the Grantee dies or (iii) the Grantee’s employment with the Trust terminates and such termination is a Retirement (as defined in the Program) then the Grantee (or the Grantee’s beneficiary(ies), if applicable) shall be eligible to receive Shares (if any) under the Program as if the Measurement Period ended on last day of the month in which termination or death occurred and as though the Grantee had remained employed by the Employer through such date.

(e) DERs awarded with respect to Restricted Performance Share Units will be expressed as a specific dollar amount equal in value to the amount of dividends paid on an actual Share on a specific date (the “Dividend Date”) during the Measurement Period, multiplied by the Grantee’s Base Units as of the Dividend Date. The Committee will apply the dollar amount to “purchase” full and fractional Restricted Performance Share Units at “Share Value” (as defined in the Program), which will be subject to Section 4(a) of the Program, and on which DERs thereafter will also be awarded. The Grantee’s additional Restricted Performance Share Units will be replaced by issued Shares (and by cash, to the extent the Grantee holds a fractional Restricted Performance Share Unit) and delivered to the Grantee (if at all) in accordance with Section 4 of the Program.

DERs awarded with respect to deferred Shares will also be expressed as a specific dollar amount equal in value to the amount of dividends paid on an actual Share on a Dividend Date during the deferral period, multiplied by the number of Shares still deferred by the Grantee as of the Dividend Date. The Committee will apply the dollar amount to “purchase” full and fractional notional shares at the closing price on the Dividend Date, on which DERs thereafter will also be awarded. The Grantee’s notional shares will be recorded in a bookkeeping account, and will be 100% vested. The Grantee’s notional shares will be replaced by issued Shares (and by cash, to the extent the Grantee holds a fractional notional share) and delivered to the Grantee (if at all) in accordance with Section 4 of the Program.

2. Share Certificates. Certificates for Shares delivered pursuant to the Program shall be registered in the Grantee’s name (or, if the Grantee so requests, in the name of the Grantee and the Grantee’s spouse, jointly with right of survivorship).

3. Transferability. The Grantee may not, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, assign or transfer his or her Restricted Performance Share Units or notional Shares. The Grantee may assign or transfer, in whole or in part, Shares delivered hereunder pursuant to the Program.

4. Withholding of Taxes. The obligation of the Trust to deliver Shares shall be subject to applicable federal, state and local tax withholding requirements. If the amount includible in the Grantee’s income as a result of the delivery of Shares is subject to the withholding requirements of applicable tax law, the Grantee, subject to the provisions of the Plan and such withholding rules as may be applicable (the “Withholding Rules”), may satisfy the withholding tax, in whole or in part, by electing to have the Trust withhold Shares (or by returning Shares to the Trust) pursuant to the Withholding Rules. Such Shares shall be valued, for this purpose, at their “Fair Market Value” (as defined in the Plan) on the Delivery Date Such election must be made in compliance with and subject to the Withholding Rules, and the Trust may not withhold Shares in excess of that number necessary to satisfy the minimum federal, state and local income tax and Social Security (“FICA”) withholding requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust may limit the number of Shares withheld to the extent necessary to avoid adverse accounting consequences.

-2-

5. Share Ownership Requirements. For purposes of the share ownership requirements of the Trust’s governance guidelines, the Shares issued to the Grantee under the Program shall be treated as though they were restricted shares that became vested upon issuance. However, any share ownership requirement that results from this provision shall immediately lapse upon the Grantee’s termination of employment with the Employer.

6. Governing Law. This Award Agreement shall be construed in accordance with, and its interpretation shall be governed by, applicable federal law and otherwise by the laws of the State of Maryland (without reference to the principles of the conflict of laws).

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trust has caused this Award Agreement to be duly executed by its duly authorized officer and the Grantee has hereunto set his or her hand all as of the day and year first above written.

Reg. §1.424-1(a) or any successor rule or regulation (notwithstanding the fact that the original Option was not intended to satisfy the requirements for treatment as an Incentive Stock Option); or (iii) cancel the Option, in whole or in part, in exchange for cash and/or other substitute consideration with a value equal to (A) the number of Shares subject to the Option, multiplied by (B) the difference, if any, between the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of the Change in Control and the Option Price; provided, that if the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of the Change in Control does not exceed the Option Price of the Option, the Committee may cancel the Option without any payment of consideration therefor. In the discretion of the Committee, any cash or substitute consideration payable upon cancellation of the Option may be subjected to earn-out, escrow, holdback or similar arrangements, to the extent such arrangements are applicable to any consideration paid to shareholders in connection with the Change in Control.

-3-

4. Payment for Shares. Full payment for Shares purchased upon the exercise of an Option may be made in cash. In addition, this Option may be exercised through means of a “net settlement,” whereby the Option Price will be satisfied by cancellation of the Company’s obligation to issue a number of Common Shares otherwise issuable upon such exercise, which number of Common Shares will be equal to: (A) the total Option Price payable to acquire the number of Shares as to which the Option is then being exercised divided by (B) the then current Fair Market Value per Common Share. The number of Shares actually issuable upon such exercise will then be equal to the difference between the number of Shares as to which the Option is then being exercised and the number of Shares described in the preceding sentence. Without limiting the foregoing, payment for Shares purchased upon the exercise of an Option may, at the election of the Optionee and as the Committee may, in its discretion, approve, by surrendering Common Shares with an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the aggregate Option Price.

5. Manner of Exercise. The Option shall be exercised by giving written notice of exercise to:

Brandywine Realty Trust
555 East Lancaster Avenue
Suite 100
Radnor, PA 19087
Attention: General Counsel

All notices under this agreement shall be deemed to have been given when hand-delivered, telecopied or transmitted electronically and shall be irrevocable once given.

6. Nontransferability of Option. The Option may not be transferred or assigned by the Optionee otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and all Options shall be exercisable, during the Optionee’s lifetime, only by the Optionee, or, in the event of his Disability, by his personal representative; and any attempt at assignment or transfer contrary to the provisions of the Plan or the levy of any execution, attachment or similar process upon the Option shall be null and void and without effect. Any exercise of the Option by a person other than the Optionee shall be accompanied by appropriate proofs of the right of such person to exercise the Option.

7. Securities Laws. The Committee may from time to time impose any conditions on the exercise of the Option as it deems necessary or appropriate to comply with the then-existing requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including Rule 16b-3 (or any similar rule) of the Securities and Exchange Commission. If the listing, registration or qualification of Shares issuable on the exercise of the Option upon any securities exchange or under any federal or state law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary as a condition of or in connection with the purchase of such Shares, the Company shall not be obligated to issue or deliver the certificates (if any) representing the Shares otherwise issuable on the exercise of the Option unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained. If registration is considered unnecessary by the Company or its counsel, the Company may cause a legend to be placed on such Shares calling attention to the fact that they have been acquired for investment and have not been registered.

-4-

8. Issuance of Certificate at Closing; Payment of Cash. Subject to the provisions of this Paragraph 8, the Closing Date shall occur as promptly as is feasible after the exercise of the Option. Subject to the provisions of Paragraphs 7 and 9 hereof, a certificate for the Shares issuable on the exercise of the Option shall be delivered to the Optionee or to his personal representative, heir or legatee at the Closing, provided that no certificates for Shares will be delivered to the Optionee or to his personal representative, heir or legatee unless the Option Price has been paid in full and provided further that the Company may elect to provide for the issuance and delivery of the Shares via book entry or in uncertificated form.

9. Rights Prior to Exercise. The Optionee shall not have any right as a shareholder with respect to any Shares subject to his Options until the Option shall have been exercised in accordance with the terms of the Plan and this Award and the Optionee shall have paid the full purchase price for the number of Shares in respect of which the Option was exercised, provided that in the event that the Optionee’s employment with the Company is terminated for Cause, upon a determination by the Committee, the Optionee shall automatically forfeit all Shares otherwise subject to delivery upon exercise of an Option but for which the Company has not yet delivered the Share certificates or issued the Shares via book entry or in uncertificated form, upon refund by the Company of the Option Price.

10. Status of Option; Interpretation. The Option is intended to qualify as an incentive stock option within the meaning of section 422 of the Code. The interpretation and construction of any provision of this Option or the Plan made by the Committee shall be final and conclusive and, insofar as possible, shall be consistent with the intention expressed in this Paragraph 10.

11. Option Not to Affect Employment. The Option granted hereunder shall not confer upon the Optionee any right to continue in the employment of the Company or any Subsidiary.

12. Miscellaneous.

(a) The address for the Optionee to which notice, demands and other communications to be given or delivered under or by reason of the provisions hereof shall be the address contained in the Company’s personnel records.

(b) This Award and all questions relating to its validity, interpretation, performance, and enforcement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland.

13. Withholding of Taxes. Whenever the Company proposes or is required to deliver or transfer Shares in connection with the exercise of the Option, the Company shall have the right to (a) require the Optionee to remit to the Company an amount in cash or Common Shares (valued at the then current Fair Market Value) sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and/or local withholding tax requirements prior to the delivery or transfer of any certificate or certificates for such Shares or (b) take whatever action it deems necessary to protect its interests with respect to tax liabilities.

-5-

14. Notice of Sale. The Optionee agrees to promptly notify the Company if the Optionee disposes of Shares acquired on the exercise of the Option on or before the first anniversary of the date of exercise as of which the Optionee acquired such Shares. For this purpose, a disposition includes a sale, exchange, gift or other transfer of legal title to such Common Shares, other than (a) a transfer following the Optionee’s death to an estate or a transfer by bequest or inheritance, (b) a pledge or hypothecation or (c) a transfer of ownership into ownership of the Optionee and another person jointly with right of survivorship.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has granted this Award on the day and year first above written.

2011-2013 RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT PROGRAM

(Established under the Brandywine Realty Trust
Amended and Restated 1997 Long-Term Incentive Plan)

PREAMBLE

WHEREAS, Brandywine Realty Trust (the “Trust”) established, and its shareholders approved, the Brandywine Realty Trust Amended and Restated 1997 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), primarily in order to award equity and equity-based benefits to officers, employees and Trustees of the Trust and its Subsidiaries (as defined in the Plan);

WHEREAS, one kind of an equity-based benefit that can be awarded under the Plan is a “Performance Share,” which entitles the recipient to receive Shares, without payment, following the attainment of designated performance goals;

WHEREAS, the Trust’s Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) is responsible for the administration of the Plan and may, pursuant to the powers granted to it thereunder, adopt rules and regulations for the administration of the Plan and determine the terms and conditions of each award granted thereunder;

WHEREAS, the Committee desires to establish a program for the 2011 through 2013 period under the Plan for the benefit of certain officers of the Trust and Subsidiaries whereby such officers would receive Performance Shares under the Plan, based on the extent to which the Trust attains the corporate goal set forth in the program.

NOW, THEREFORE, effective as of January 1, 2011, the Brandywine Realty Trust 2011-2013 Restricted Performance Share Unit Program is hereby adopted (under the Plan) by the Committee, with the following terms and conditions:

1. Purposes. The purposes of the Program are to motivate certain officers of the Trust to achieve challenging goals for the Trust that reflect value creation for shareholders, and to focus the attention of the eligible officers on an important financial indicator of success of the Trust and of other companies in the same business as the Trust.

(d) “Board” means the Board of Trustees of the Trust.

(e) “Business Combination” means a transaction described in clause (ii)(A) of the definition of “Change in Control.”

(f) “Change in Control” means “Change in Control” as such term is defined in a Participant’s Employment Agreement or, if the Participant is not a party to an Employment Agreement, then as defined in the Plan.

(g) “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

3. Award Agreement. Each Participant shall be issued an Award Agreement setting forth the initial number of Base Units awarded to the Participant and entitling the Participant to receive the number of Shares determined under Section 4 hereof based on the extent to which the Corporate Goal is achieved. Such Base Units shall be subject to the adjustments described in Section 8 hereof. Each Award Agreement and the Shares which may be delivered thereunder are subject to the terms of this Program and the terms of the Plan.

4. Performance Goal; Delivery of Shares.

(a) If, for the Measurement Period, the Trust’s performance, based on its “TRS” (as defined below), equals or exceeds the “Threshold” (as defined below), then the Trust shall deliver to each Participant the number of Shares (rounded down to the nearest whole number of Shares) determined by first multiplying the whole percentile (expressed as a percentage equal to the percentile rounded up for fractions of one-half or greater) at which the Trust’s TRS for the Measurement Period places the Trust among the component members (excluding the Trust) of the “MSCI US REIT Index” (as defined below) for the Measurement Period, each ranked pursuant to such TRS, by two, and then multiplying that product by the Participant’s Base Units; provided, however, that: (i) if the Trust’s TRS places the Trust at or above the 75th percentile among the component members (excluding the Trust) of the MSCI US REIT Index at the end of the Measurement Period (ranked based upon each such member’s TRS for the Measurement Period) then the number of Shares that will be delivered shall equal 200% of the Participant’s Base Units and (ii) if the Trust’s TRS places the Trust above the 50th percentile and below the 75^th percentile among the component members (excluding the Trust) of the MSCI US REIT Index at the end of the Measurement Period (ranked based upon each such member’s TRS for the Measurement Period) then the number of Shares that will be delivered shall equal a percentage of the Participant’s Base Units, with such percentage derived through a straight-line interpolation with a deemed minimum percentage of 100% at the 50^th percentile and a deemed maximum percentage of 200% at the 75^th percentile. Accordingly, for example, if the Trust’s TRS places the Trust at the 62.5^th percentile (i.e., the mid-point between the 50^th and 75^th percentiles), then the percentage to be applied to the Participant’s Base Units would be 150%. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, Shares will be delivered under the Program to the extent that Shares remain available under the Plan; and if the total number of Shares to be delivered exceeds the number of Shares available under the Plan, then the number of Shares for each Participant will be reduced on a pro rata basis based on each individual Participant’s Base Units as compared to the total of all Participants’ Base Units. If, for the Measurement Period, the Trust’s performance, based on its TRS, does not equal or exceed the Threshold, the Trust shall not deliver any Shares to the Participants. Also, except as provided in subsection (c) below, a Participant must be employed by an Employer on the last day of the Measurement Period in order to receive any Shares under this Program. See Appendix A attached hereto for examples illustrating the operation of this Section.

(b) Definitions for this Section. The following terms shall be defined as set forth below:

(1) “MSCI US REIT Index” means the MSCI US REIT Index’s gross index (as it may be renamed from time to time) or, in the event such index shall cease to be published, such other index as the Committee shall determine to be comparable thereto.

(2) “Share Value” means, as applicable and except as provided in the following sentence, the average of the closing prices of one Share on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) (or, if not then listed on the NYSE, on the principal market or quotation system on which Shares are then traded) for (i) the 60 days on which Shares were traded prior to the Effective Date (for the value of a Share on the Effective Date); or (ii) the 60 days on which Shares were traded prior to and including the last day of the Measurement Period (for the value of a Share on the last day of the Measurement Period); provided that for purposes of Section 4(e) below and the “purchase” of additional RSUs thereunder, “Share Value” means the closing price of one Share on the NYSE (or, if not then listed on the NYSE, on the principal market or quotation system on which Shares are then traded) on the applicable dividend payment date. In the event of a Business Combination approved by the shareholders of the Trust on or prior to December 31, 2013, Share Value shall mean the final price per Share agreed upon by the parties to the Business Combination.

-3-

(3) “Threshold” means that, for the Measurement Period, the Trust’s TRS places the Trust at least at the 25th percentile among the component members (excluding the Trust) of the MSCI US REIT Index at the end of the Measurement Period (ranked based upon each such member’s TRS for the Measurement Period).

(4) “TRS” means total return to shareholders for the Measurement Period for the Trust and for the other component members of the MSCI US REIT Index (i.e., those component members used for purposes of compiling the MSCI US REIT Index as of the first day of the Measurement Period and that remain publicly held companies as of the last day of the Measurement Period, whether or not they are still included in the MSCI US REIT Index on such last day).

(c) Termination of Employment. Upon a Participant’s termination of employment on or prior to the last day of the Measurement Period, the following shall occur:

(1) Termination on Account of Retirement, Disability or Death. If, on or prior to the last day of the Measurement Period, (i) the Participant has a separation from service that constitutes a Retirement, (ii) the Participant incurs a Disability Termination, or (iii) the Participant dies, then the Participant (or the Participant’s beneficiary(ies), if applicable) shall be eligible to receive Shares (if any) under the Program as if the Measurement Period ended on the last day of the month in which the Retirement, termination or death occurred and as though the Participant had remained employed by the Employer through such date.

(2) Termination for Any Other Reason. If, on or prior to the last day of the Measurement Period, the Participant’s employment with the Employer terminates for any reason other than a reason described in paragraph (1) above, the Participant shall forfeit all of the Base Units (and all of the Shares that may have become deliverable with respect to such Base Units) subject to the RSUs the Participant was granted under the Program.

(d) Determination of Performance; Share Delivery. Within 30 days after the end of the Measurement Period, the Committee shall provide each Participant (or in the case of termination of a Participant covered in Section 4(c), to the affected Participant or his or her legal representative) with a written determination of whether the Trust did or did not attain the Corporate Goal for the applicable Measurement Period (and, if applicable, the extent to which the Corporate Goal was attained) and the calculations used to make such determination. If Shares are to be delivered under the Program, they shall be delivered to Participants on March 1, 2014 (unless a Participant elects otherwise pursuant to subsection (f) below) or, if a Change in Control occurs before January 1, 2014, on the fifth day after the last day of the Measurement Period ending on (or, if applicable, after) the Change in Control or, in the case of termination of a Participant covered in Section 4(c), on or before the thirtieth day after the date of termination of the Participant.

(e) DERs. Participants shall be awarded DERs with respect to their initial number of Base Units. Each DER will be expressed as a specific dollar amount (the “Dollar Amount”) equal to the dollar amount of the dividend paid on an actual Share on a specific date (the “Dividend Date”) multiplied by the Participant’s initial number of Base Units. Without limiting Section 8, the dollar amount of any non-cash dividends shall be determined by the Compensation Committee in its discretion. Until the end of the Measurement Period, the Committee will apply the Dollar Amount to “purchase” a number of additional RSUs equal to the Dollar Amount divided by the Share Value. The delivery of Shares under such additional RSUs shall also be subject to the attainment of the Corporate Goal set forth in subsection (a) above. DERs shall also be awarded on such additional RSUs and applied in the same manner (thereby increasing the Participant’s Base Units on a cumulative basis). RSUs deemed purchased with DERs hereunder may be whole or fractional units.

-4-

Participants who make a deferral election under subsection (f) below shall also be awarded DERs under the Plan with respect to their deferred Shares. Each such DER will be expressed as a Dollar Amount equal to the dollar amount of the dividend paid on an actual Share on a Dividend Date during the deferral period multiplied by the number of Shares still deferred by the Participant as of the Dividend Date. The Committee will apply the Dollar Amount to “purchase” notional shares (on which DERs thereafter will also be awarded and applied in the same manner) at the closing price of a Share on the Dividend Date. Notional shares deemed purchased with DERs hereunder may be whole or fractional shares. DERs expressed as a Dollar Amount will continue to be applied to “purchase” notional shares on Dividend Dates until all of the Participant’s deferred Shares are delivered to the Participant (or to his or her beneficiary(ies), if applicable), as elected in his or her deferral election agreement. A Participant’s notional shares “purchased” with DERs awarded with respect to his or her deferred Shares shall be 100% vested at all times.

The Trust shall establish a bookkeeping account (the “DER Account”) for each such Participant and credit to such account the number of whole and fractional additional RSUs and notional shares deemed purchased with the Dollar Amounts. The Participant’s additional RSUs and notional shares shall be subject to the adjustments described in Section 8 hereof. All whole additional RSUs (for which Shares become deliverable under this Section) and whole notional shares credited to a Participant’s DER Account shall be replaced by issued Shares on a one-to-one basis on the delivery date referred to in subsection (d) above, and the fractional additional RSUs (for which Shares become deliverable under this Section) and fractional notional shares credited to a Participant’s DER Account shall be aggregated and replaced by issued Shares (and with cash in lieu of a fractional Share) based on the closing price of a Share on the replacement date, and delivered to the Participant (or to his or her beneficiary(ies), if applicable) on the date the associated Shares are delivered to the Participant.

(f) Elective Deferrals. Rights granted under the Program shall be treated as “Share Awards” and as “Performance-Based Compensation” as defined in the Brandywine Realty Trust Amended and Restated Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferred Compensation Plan”). Accordingly, a Participant may elect to defer receipt of Shares issuable under the Program under the rules of the Deferred Compensation Plan, subject to the following limitations. A Participant may elect to defer the receipt (and the Trust shall defer issuance) of all or a portion of the Shares that may become deliverable under the Program, until as specified in the Participant’s deferral election agreement, (i) the Participant’s separation from service (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(h) (or any successor regulation) from the Trust’s controlled group of entities, (ii) a date chosen by the Participant, and/or (iii) the occurrence of an “unforeseeable emergency,” as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(ii) of the Code, to the extent not prohibited by the rules of the Deferred Compensation Plan. However, notwithstanding any such election, the delivery of all Shares credited to the Participant’s Deferred Compensation Plan Account will occur on the earlier of the occurrence of the Participant’s death or a Control Event.

A Participant’s deferral election agreement must be submitted to the Committee no later than six months prior to the end of the applicable Measurement Period in order to be effective; otherwise, Shares (and cash attributable to fractional Shares) deliverable to the Participant, if any, will be delivered in accordance with Section 4(d), above. Unless the delivery of deferred Shares is accelerated by either of the events described in the last sentence of the preceding paragraph, if deferred Shares are to be delivered to a Participant who is a “specified employee,” as defined in section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, upon his or her separation from service from the Trust’s controlled group of entities, the Trust shall issue and deliver such deferred Shares (and cash attributable to DERs) on the date that is six months after the date of his or her separation from service. A deferral election agreement shall be substantially in the form set forth in Appendix B attached hereto.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this program or any deferral election made in connection with this program, the issuance of otherwise deferred Shares may be accelerated: (i) to the extent permitted by Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(j)(4)(vi) (relating to the satisfaction of tax obligations arising in connection with Awards hereunder), and (ii) to the extent permitted by Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-3(j)(4)(ix)(relating to plan terminations and liquidations).

The Committee shall administer the delivery of Shares (and cash attributable to fractional Shares) under an election made pursuant to this subsection (f) and the underlying deferral election agreement in accordance with the Deferred Compensation Plan, section 409A of the Code and regulations and other guidance issued thereunder.

-5-

5. Beneficiary Designation.

(a) Each Participant shall designate the person(s) as the beneficiary(ies) to whom the Participant’s Shares shall be delivered in the event of the Participant’s death prior to the delivery of the Shares to him or her. Each beneficiary designation shall be substantially in the form set forth in Appendix C attached hereto and shall be effective only when filed with the Committee during the Participant’s lifetime.

(b) Any beneficiary designation may be changed by a Participant without the consent of any previously designated beneficiary or any other person by the filing of a new beneficiary designation with the Committee. The filing of a new beneficiary designation shall cancel all beneficiary designations previously filed.

(c) If any Participant fails to designate a beneficiary in the manner provided above, or if the beneficiary designated by a Participant predeceases the Participant, the Committee shall direct such Participant’s Shares to be delivered to the Participant’s surviving spouse or, if the Participant has no surviving spouse, then to the Participant’s estate.

6. Delivery to Guardian. If Shares are issuable under this Program to a minor, a person declared incompetent, or a person incapable of handling the disposition of property, the Committee may direct the delivery of the Shares to the guardian, legal representative, or person having the care and custody of the minor, incompetent or incapable person. The Committee may require proof of incompetence, minority, incapacity or guardianship as the Committee may deem appropriate prior to the delivery. The delivery shall completely discharge the Committee, the Trustees and the Employer from all liability with respect to the Shares delivered.

7. Source of Shares. This Program shall be unfunded, and the delivery of Shares shall be pursuant to the Plan. Each Participant and beneficiary shall be a general and unsecured creditor of the Employer to the extent of the Shares determined hereunder, and the Participant shall have no right, title or interest in any specific asset that the Employer may set aside, earmark or identify as reserved for the delivery of Shares under the Program. The Employer’s obligation under the Program shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise to deliver Shares in the future, provided the Corporate Goal is met.

8. Capital Adjustments. Calculations required under the Program, the number of Base Units awarded under the Program, and the number of Shares that may be delivered under the Program shall be adjusted to reflect any increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares resulting from a subdivision (share-split), consolidation (reverse split), share dividend, or other change in the capitalization of the Trust during the Measurement Period.

9. Tax Withholding; Securities Law Compliance. The delivery of Shares (and cash, if applicable) to a Participant or beneficiary under this Program shall be subject to applicable tax withholding pursuant to the Plan. The delivery of Shares to a Participant or beneficiary under this Program and the resale of any such Shares shall be subject to applicable compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws.

10. Administration. This Program shall be administered by the Committee pursuant to the powers granted to it in Section 2 of the Plan.

11. Amendment and Termination. The Committee reserves the right to amend the Program, by written resolution, at any time and from time to time in any fashion, provided any such amendment does not conflict with the terms of the Plan, and to terminate it at will. However, no amendment or termination of the Program shall adversely affect any Award Agreement already issued under the Program without the written consent of the affected Participant(s).

12. Headings. The headings of the Sections and subsections of the Program are for reference only. In the event of a conflict between a heading and the content of a Section or subsection, the content of the Section or subsection shall control.

13. Incorporation of Plan by Reference. Because the Program is established under the Plan in order to provide for, and determine the terms and conditions of, the granting of certain Awards thereunder, the terms and conditions of the Plan are hereby incorporated by reference and made a part of this Program. If any terms of the Program conflict with the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall control.

APPENDIX A

BRANDYWINE REALTY TRUST
2011-2013 RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT PROGRAM

(Established under the Brandywine Realty Trust Amended and Restated 1997 Long-Term Incentive Plan)

EXAMPLES^*

Example 1. Full Measurement Period

Executive A is a participant in the Brandywine Realty Trust 2011-2013 Restricted Performance Share Unit Program (the “Program”). The Share Value (as defined in the Program) of a common share of beneficial interest (a “Share”) in the “Trust” (as defined in the Program) on January 1, 2011 is $11, and the price of a Share on December 31, 2013 is $15. For the three-year period beginning January 1, 2011 and ending December 31, 2013 (the “Measurement Period”), dividends total $1.80 per Share (and are paid in an equal amount on a quarterly basis — i.e., $.15 dividend per Share per quarter).

Total return to shareholders (“TRS”) on one Share (expressed as a percentage) for the Trust over the Measurement Period, as calculated by the Trust or by a third party selected by the “Committee” (as defined in the Program), is the following:


12/31/13 Value of One Share	$	15
+ Dividends over Measurement Period on One Share		+1.8

	$	16.8
Divided by 1/1/11 Value of One Share		/11

		1.527

TRS		52.7	%

Participant A receives a Restricted Performance Share Unit award for 250 “Base Units” (as defined in the Program). Participant A also receives “DERs” (as defined in the Program) on his Base Units, such that his total number of Base Units on December 31, 2013 is 288.70, calculated as follows:


	Aggregate		Deemed				Additional RSUs
Date	Base Units		Dividend		Share Price		“Purchased”
1/1/11		250		—		—		—
3/15/11		250	$	37.50	$	11		3.4
6/15/11		253.40	$	38.01	$	10		3.8
9/15/11		257.20	$	38.58	$	11		3.5
12/15/11		260.70	$	39.11	$	12		3.3
3/15/12		264	$	39.60	$	12		3.3
6/15/12		267.30	$	40.10	$	13		3.1
9/15/12		270.40	$	40.56	$	12		3.4
12/15/12		273.80	$	41.07	$	13		3.2
3/15/13		277.00	$	41.55	$	14		3.0
6/15/13		280	$	42.00	$	14		3.0
9/15/13		283	$	42.45	$	15		2.8
12/15/13		285.80	$	42.87	$	15		2.9
12/31/13		288.70		—		—		—


^*		The examples set forth in this Appendix A (including the $11.00 starting share price) are illustrative only and are not intended to be precise or definitive. For example, they do not show the full calculation of “TRS” (as defined below) because, for ease of explanation, the calculation does not reflect that each cash dividend paid during the “Measurement Period” (as defined below) is deemed to be reinvested in a fractional notional share of the “Trust” (as defined below). When actually calculating TRS, each cash dividend will generally be deemed to be reinvested in a fractional notional share. There may be other immaterial differences between the way calculations are performed in these examples and the way the Trust or a third party engaged by the “Committee” (as defined below) would perform the calculations.

A-1

If, as of December 31, 2013, the Trust’s TRS places the Trust at the percentiles listed below among the component members of the “MSCI US REIT Index” (as defined in the Program) (the “Index”), ranked pursuant to each member’s TRS over the Measurement Period, as calculated by the Trust or by a third party selected by the Committee, Participant A would receive the following number of Shares (with fractional Shares settled in cash):


	Percent of
	Base Units
Percentile	Deliverable in Shares			Shares
Below 25^th		0	%	0
25^th		50	%	144 (plus cash for .4 Share)
40^th		80	%	231
50^th		100	%	288 (plus cash for .7 Share)
62.5^th		150	%	433 (plus cash for .1 Share)
75th or above		200	%	577 (plus cash for .4 Share)

Example 2. Change in Control

Assume the same facts as in Example 1, except that a “Change in Control” (as defined in the Program) occurs when the Trust’s shareholders approve a “Business Combination” (as defined in the Program), which becomes effective on October 15, 2012. From the period between January 1, 2011 and October 15, 2012 inclusive, total dividends of $1.05 per Share have been paid. Because of the Change in Control, the Measurement Period ends on October 15, 2012, rather than December 31, 2013. The final price per Share agreed upon by the parties to the Change in Control is $12.

TRS on one Share (expressed as a percentage) over the Measurement Period (ending October 15, 2012), as calculated by the Trust or by a third party selected by the Committee, is the following:


10/15/2012 Value of One Share	$	12
+ Dividends over Measurement Period on One Share	$	+1.05

	$	13.05
Divided by 1/1/2011 Value of One Share		/11

		1.186

TRS		18.6	%

A-2

As of October 15, 2012, Participant A has 270.4 Base Units (see Example 1). If, as of October 15, 2012, the Trust’s TRS places the Trust at the percentiles listed below among the component members of the Index (ranked pursuant to each member’s TRS over the Measurement Period, as calculated by the Trust or by a third party selected by the Committee), Participant A would receive the following number of Shares (with fractional Shares settled in cash):


	Percent of
	Base Units
Percentile	Deliverable in Shares			Shares
Below 25^th		0	%	0
25^th		50	%	135 (plus cash for .2 Share)
40^th		80	%	216 (plus cash for .3 Share)
50^th		100	%	270 (plus cash for .4 Share)
62.5^th		150	%	405 (plus cash for .6 Share)
75th or above		200	%	540 (plus cash for .8 Share)

Example 3. Termination During Measurement Period

Assume the same facts as in Example 1, except that Participant A has a separation from service that constitutes a Retirement, dies or incurs a “Disability Termination” (as defined in the Program) on May 5, 2012. From the period between January 1, 2011 and May 5, 2012 inclusive, total dividends of $.75 per Share have been paid. Thus, as of the date of his Retirement or death or of the Disability Termination, Participant A has 264 Base Units (see Example 1). Because of the kind of termination that occurred, Participant A is eligible to receive the number of Shares (if any) computed in accordance with Section 4(c)(1).

APPENDIX B

BRANDYWINE REALTY TRUST
2011-2013 RESTRICTED PERFORMANCE SHARE UNIT PROGRAM

(Established under the Brandywine Realty Trust Amended and Restated 1997 Long-Term Incentive Plan)

DEFERRAL ELECTION AGREEMENT^*

The Brandywine Realty Trust 2011-2013 Restricted Performance Share Unit Program effective as of January 1, 2011 (the “Program”), provides a select group of management or highly compensated employees with the ability to defer a portion of their compensation earned under the Program. The purpose of this Deferral Election Agreement is to allow you to defer the delivery of all or a portion of the Shares (and Shares deliverable with respect to dividend equivalent rights (“DERs”) awarded thereon) that are otherwise deliverable to you under the Program until one of the events selected below occurs.

AFTER YOU SIGN THIS DEFERRAL ELECTION AGREEMENT AND IT IS ACCEPTED BY BRANDYWINE REALTY TRUST (THE “TRUST”), ANY ATTEMPT TO REVOKE THIS ELECTION WILL BE VOID [IF DONE LESS THAN SIX MONTHS BEFORE THE END OF THE APPLICABLE MEASUREMENT PERIOD UNDER THE PROGRAM].

You need only complete this Deferral Election Agreement if you wish to defer the delivery of Shares (and Shares deliverable with respect to DERs awarded thereon) that become deliverable to you under the Program. Capitalized terms in this Deferral Election Agreement are defined in the Program.

1. Participation Election

o I hereby elect to defer under the terms of the Program the delivery of _____% [insert any whole percentage from one to 100 percent, inclusive] of the Shares that may become deliverable to me under the Program.

2. Delivery Date Election

I hereby elect to have the Trust deliver the percentage set forth above of the Shares (and the Shares deliverable with respect to DERs awarded thereon) that may become deliverable to me under the Program upon the following event [check only one box]:

o (A) On the 10th calendar day after my separation from service from the Trust’s controlled group of entities (the date which is six months after such separation from service if I am a “specified employee” at that time — see Section 4(f) of the Program).

o (B) On the following date: , 20 [must be after March 1, 2014].

o (C) Upon the earlier of the 10th calendar day after my separation from service (subject to the six month delay for “specified employees,” as described in (A) above) or the following date: , 20 [must be after March 1, 2014].


^*		Because of the complexities involved in the application of federal, state and local tax laws to specific circumstances and the uncertainties as to possible future changes in the tax laws, you should consult your personal tax advisor regarding your own situation before completing this Deferral Election Agreement.

B-1

3. Acceleration in the Event of an Unforeseeable Emergency

In addition to the election I made in 2 above, if I check the following box, I also elect to have the Trust deliver Shares (and Shares deliverable with respect to DERs awarded thereon), to the extent permitted by applicable law, to me:

o Upon an “Unforeseeable Emergency,” as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(ii) of the Internal Revenue Code. (This definition is quite restrictive. See the footnote on the previous page regarding consulting with your own tax advisor before completing this Deferral Election Agreement.)

4. Change in Control or Death

Notwithstanding the foregoing election, if a Control Event (as defined in Section 2(i) of the Program) or my death occurs before the Shares (including Shares deliverable with respect to DERs awarded thereon) are delivered to me, such Shares shall be delivered in a single sum to me or to my beneficiary(ies) designated in my Beneficiary Designation Form (as applicable) within 30 days following such Control Event or death (as applicable).

5. Required Tax Payments or Termination of Deferral Arrangement

Notwithstanding the foregoing election, I understand that the distribution of otherwise deferred Shares may be accelerated to the extent necessary to satisfy tax withholding obligations arising in connection with those Shares or in connection with a termination of this arrangement, to the extent permitted by applicable tax regulations.

6. Insufficient Share Possibility

Because of the finite number of Shares available under the Brandywine Realty Trust Amended and Restated 1997 Long-Term Incentive Plan, I understand that it is possible that not enough Shares will still be available under the Plan to deliver all of the Shares otherwise required to be delivered to me (or to my beneficiary(ies)) on the deferral date(s) chosen in 2 and 3 above.

* * * * *

By signing this Deferral Election Agreement, I agree to the terms and conditions of the Program as the Program now exists, and as it may be amended from time to time (provided that no amendment of the Program will adversely affect my rights under the Program without my written consent).
