cash tender offers financial
"has commenced the concurrent, but separate, cash tender offers"
A cash tender offer is when a company or investor offers to buy shares directly from shareholders for cash, usually at a price higher than the current market value. It’s a way to quickly acquire a large number of shares, often to gain control of a company or influence its decisions.
Series Cap financial
"subject to the Series Caps comprised of up to $50,000,000"
Tender Offer Consideration financial
"In addition to the applicable Tender Offer Consideration as determined"
The form of payment an investor receives when a buyer seeks to purchase shares through a tender offer—commonly cash, shares of the buyer, or a mix of both. Like choosing between immediate cash or trade credit at a store, the choice affects how much value you actually get today, whether you keep an ownership stake, possible tax consequences, and how easily you can sell the proceeds, so it directly influences an investor’s financial outcome from the deal.
Accrued Interest financial
"and the Accrued Interest, from the last interest payment date"
Accrued interest is the amount of interest that has built up on a loan, bond, or similar investment since the last payment date but has not yet been paid. For investors this matters because when you buy or sell a fixed‑income security between payment dates you compensate the other party for that earned interest—think of it like buying a house mid‑month and reimbursing the seller for days of heating already used—so it affects the actual cash you pay, the yield you receive, and short‑term returns.
Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount financial
"for up to $100,000,000 in aggregate principal amount the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount"
The aggregate maximum tender amount is the total dollar value or number of shares a buyer sets as the upper limit for a tender offer — essentially the biggest “bucket” of stock or cash the buyer is willing to accept. It matters to investors because it determines whether all shareholders who want to sell will be able to do so; if more shares are offered than that limit, the buyer will accept only part of each seller’s offer, meaning some shareholders may have only a portion of their sale executed.
Withdrawal Deadline financial
"the 10th business day after commencement of such Tender Offer the Withdrawal Deadline"
The withdrawal deadline is the last date and time by which an investor can change or cancel a previously made choice in a corporate action—such as pulling back shares from a tender offer, revoking consent, or requesting a refund. It matters because after that cutoff the choice becomes final and binding, so missing it can lock in financial consequences or foreclose opportunities; think of it like the final day to cancel a hotel booking without penalty.

Can BDN noteholders withdraw tenders from the offers?

The Series Caps represent the maximum aggregate principal amount of Notes of such series pursuant to the Tender Offers. The Operating Partnership reserves the right, but is under no obligation, to increase or decrease the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount and/or any Series Cap at any time, without extending the Withdrawal Deadline (as defined herein) for any Tender Offer or otherwise reinstating withdrawal or revocation rights of Holders, subject to applicable law, which could result in the Operating Partnership purchasing a greater or lesser aggregate principal amount of Notes in the Tender Offers. There can be no assurance that the Operating Partnership will exercise its right to increase or decrease the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount and/or any Series Cap. If the Operating Partnership increases or decreases the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount and/or any Series Cap, the Operating Partnership reserves the right to extend the Expiration Date.

The Operating Partnership reserves the right, but is under no obligation, to increase or decrease the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount and/or any Series Cap at any time without extending the Withdrawal Deadline for any Tender Offer or otherwise reinstating withdrawal or revocation rights of Holders, subject to applicable law, which could result in the Operating Partnership purchasing a greater or lesser aggregate principal amount of Notes in the Tender Offers.

The Tender Offers will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 21, 2026, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Operating Partnership (such time and date, as the same may be extended, the “Expiration Date”). Holders of Notes must validly tender and not validly withdraw their Notes prior to or at the Expiration Date to be eligible to receive the applicable Tender Offer Consideration (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) and the Accrued Interest. Holders will receive the applicable Tender Offer Consideration per their series of Notes, as set forth in the table above, per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offers. Notes tendered after the Expiration Date will not be valid and will not be purchased pursuant to the Tender Offers.

Notes of a series may be subject to proration if the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of such series validly tendered and not validly withdrawn would cause the Aggregate Maximum Tender Amount and/or any Series Cap to be exceeded. If proration of the tendered Notes of any series is required, the Operating Partnership will determine the final proration factor as soon as practicable after the Expiration Date.

Holders who validly tender their Notes, may validly withdraw their tendered Notes at any time (a) at or prior to the earlier of (i) the Expiration Date, and (ii) if any Tender Offer is extended, the 10th business day after commencement of such Tender Offer or (b) at any time after the 60th business day after commencement of the Tender Offers if for any reason any Tender Offer has not been consummated within 60-business days after commencement of such Tender Offer (the “Withdrawal Deadline”).

The Operating Partnership intends to fund the Tender Offer Consideration for the Notes tendered in the Tender Offers with cash on hand and/or borrowings under the $600,000,000 line of credit under the Operating Partnership’s Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Additional terms and conditions of the Tender Offers are set forth in the Offer to Purchase.

Each Tender Offer is a separate offer, and each Tender Offer may be individually amended, extended, terminated or withdrawn without amending, extending, terminating or withdrawing any other Tender Offer. The Tender Offers are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, and the Operating Partnership expressly reserves its right, subject to applicable law, to terminate the Tender Offers at any time prior to the Expiration Date.

Holders are urged to read the Offer to Purchase carefully before making any decision with respect to the Tender Offer.

Forward-Looking Statements

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “1995 Act”) provides a “safe harbor” for forward-looking statements. This press release contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. We intend such forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe-harbor provisions of the 1995 Act. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by our use of forward-looking terminology such as “will,” “strategy,” “expects,” “seeks,” “believes,” “potential,” or other similar words. Because such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and contingencies, actual results may differ materially from the expectations, intentions, beliefs, plans or predictions of the future expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon the current beliefs and expectations of our management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are difficult to predict and not within our control. Factors that might cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations are set forth in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Accordingly, we caution readers not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We assume no obligation to update or supplement forward-looking statements that become untrue because of subsequent events.
