Item 8.01. Other Events.

Boston Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) is revising its historical financial statements in connection with the Company’s changes to its reportable segments. Beginning on January 1, 2014, the properties that were historically part of the Company’s Princeton region have been reflected as the suburban component of the Company’s New York region for its reportable segments. Under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) disclosure requirements, the revision of the Company’s historical financial statements resulting from the changes to the Company’s reportable segments is required for previously issued annual financial statements for each of the three years presented in the Company’s last annual report on Form 10-K if the financial statements are incorporated by reference in subsequent filings with the SEC made under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, even though the financial statements relate to periods prior to the date of the change in the Company’s reportable segments.

This Report on Form 8-K updates Items 8 and 15 of the Company’s Form 10-K to reflect the changes to the Company’s reporting segments as presented in Note 14 – Segment Information to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1. All other items of the Form 10-K remain unchanged. No attempt has been made to update matters in the Form 10-K except to the extent expressly provided above.
