	 	(i)	 	The Option may be exercised for [                    ] of the Shares subject to the Option on or after the
first anniversary of the Date of Grant.
	 
	 	(ii)	 	The Option may be exercised for

or after the third anniversary of the Date of Grant.





Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to Section 3(b), no Shares subject to the Option shall first
become exercisable following the termination of the Optionee’s employment with the Company whether
on account of (x) the Company terminating Optionee’s employment or (y) the Optionee’s resignation
of employment; provided, however, that if such termination or resignation constitutes a
Retirement then the Option shall become exercisable for 100% of the Shares subject to the Option
and shall remain exercisable until the earlier of the events specified in clauses (iv) and (v) of
the definition of the term “Expiration Date”. The number of Shares available for exercise as

(b) Notwithstanding Paragraph 3(a), the Option shall become fully exercisable upon the

Disability of the Optionee or (iv) the Retirement of the Optionee. In addition, notwithstanding

consent of the Optionee, take one or more of the following actions contingent upon the occurrence
of that Change in Control: (i) cause the Option to become fully vested and immediately exercisable
for a reasonable period in advance of the Change in Control and, to the extent not exercised prior
to that Change in Control, cancel the Option upon closing of the Change in Control; (ii) cancel the
Option, in whole or in part, in exchange for a substitute option in a manner consistent with the
requirements of Treas. Reg. §1.424-1(a) or any successor rule or regulation



 


-3-









 






(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.



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 as and to the extent permitted by Section 5(e) of the Plan; 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.


 


-4-









 





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.



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 be a non-qualified
stock option. Accordingly, it is intended that the transfer of property pursuant to the exercise
of the Option shall be subject to federal income tax in accordance with section 83 of the Code.
The Option is not 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.



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