INTRODUCTORY STATEMENT

On September 7, 2011, Brandywine Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”) and Brandywine Realty Trust (“Brandywine”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (which, together with all amendments and supplements thereto, collectively constitute this “Schedule TO”). This Schedule TO relates to the right of each holder (the “Holder”) of the 3.875% Exchangeable Guaranteed Notes Due 2026 (CUSIP No. 105340 AG8) (the “Notes”) issued by the Operating Partnership and guaranteed by Brandywine to require the Operating Partnership to repurchase Notes owned by such Holder, in whole or in part, in principal amounts of $1,000 or any integral multiple thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on October 20, 2011, in accordance with the terms, procedures and conditions set forth in the Issuer Repurchase Notice, dated September 7, 2011 (the “Issuer Repurchase Notice”). This Schedule TO was amended on September 14, 2011.

This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule TO is being filed, as the final amendment to the Schedule TO, in order to satisfy the disclosure requirements of Rule 13e-4(c)(4) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Item 4. Terms of the Transaction

Pursuant to the terms of the Notes and the Indenture governing the Notes, the Operating Partnership was obligated, at the option of each Holder, to repurchase all Notes validly surrendered for repurchase and not withdrawn prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 18, 2011. The Operating Partnership and Brandywine were advised by the Bank of New York Mellon (the “Paying Agent”) that Notes in an aggregate principal amount at maturity of $59,485,000 were validly surrendered and not withdrawn prior to such time. The Operating Partnership has accepted for repurchase all such Notes. The repurchase price of the Notes surrendered pursuant to the Issuer Repurchase Notice was equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid interest on October 20, 2011. Accordingly, the aggregate repurchase price for all Notes validly tendered for repurchase pursuant to the Issuer Repurchase Notice was $60,665,420 (which includes $1,180,420 in accrued and unpaid interest). The Operating Partnership has delivered the aggregate purchase price for the accepted Notes to the Paying Agent for distribution to the Holders. Following the Operating Partnership’s repurchase of the Notes pursuant to the Issuer Repurchase Notice, $350,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Notes remains outstanding.
