Explanatory Note

This current report on Form 8-K/A amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Brandywine Realty Trust and Brandywine Operating Partnership, L.P. on June 2, 2011 (“Original 8-K”) and updates disclosures made under Item 5.07, Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders, regarding the results from the Company’s 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on June 1, 2011 (“2011 Annual Meeting”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the decision of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Trustees (“Committee”) regarding how frequently it will conduct non-binding advisory votes on the compensation paid to our named executive officers. No other changes have been made to the Original 8-K.

     
Item 5.07 
  Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

In a non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on the compensation paid to our named executive officers (“say on pay”) held at the 2011 Annual Meeting, shareholders voted in favor of holding say on pay votes annually. Accordingly, in light of this result and other factors considered by the Committee, the Committee has determined that the Company will hold advisory say on pay votes on an annual basis until the next required vote on the frequency of such say on pay votes.
