Re: Cambridge CenterDear City Manager Healy:

This letter is to respectfully request that the modification of the two open space restrictioncovenants described below be placed on the City Manager's Agenda for transmittal to the CityCouncil at the meeting scheduled for February 27,2012.

This request is being made in order to allow for the construction of a new connectorbuilding containing approximately 25,000 square feet of gross floor area between the existingbuildings located at Four and Five Cambridge Center. As will be discussed in greater detailbelow, the construction of this new connector building will require the modification of twoexisting open space covenants, resulting in an 18,147 square foot reduction of the public openspace created by those covenants. However, the term of these covenants would be extended inconnection with these modifications for an additional 28 years from the current expiration date of2022 until 2050. In addition, a new 47,000 square foot urban park would be created as part ofthis process pursuant to an open space covenant with a duration of 40 years, for a net gain of28,853 square feet of public open space in the Cambridge Center area.

By way of background, Four and Five Cambridge Center are part of Boston Properties'Cambridge Center development, 1 which began in 1979 when Boston Properties was designatedas the "developer of record" for a portion of the Kendall Square Urban Renewal Area under theKendall Square Urban Renewal Plan. The Urban Renewal Plan was adopted by the City ofCambridge in 1965 in order to facilitate redevelopment within the 42-acre project area and

eliminate the blighted conditions and urban decay that had previously characterized the area. Infurtherance of that goal, the City adopted Article 14 of the Cambridge Zoning Ordinance tospecifically govern land use and development within the so-called "Mixed-Use Development(MXD) District of the Urban Renewal Area (a plan showing the MXD District as provided inArticle 14 of the Zoning Ordinance is attached hereto as Exhibit A) in which the CambridgeCenter development is located. Since its original designation in 1979, Boston Properties hascompleted a total of fourteen buildings and three parking garages within Cambridge Center aspart of a master planning effort with the Cambridge Redevelopment Authority, with input fromthe City Council, Planning Board, Community Development Department and other municipalboards and neighborhood groups. The Cambridge Center development is shown on Exhibit Battached hereto.

The construction of the connector building that is the subject of this letter request is partof a larger project being undertaken in connection with the leasing of approximately 300,000square feet to Google, Inc. in the buildings located at Three, Four and Five Cambridge Center."Google is currently a tenant at Three and Five Cambridge Center, but has outgrown its existingspace and is looking to create an urban campus configured in a manner to facilitate its workprocesses, enhance its unique culture and help attract the best candidates for its workforce. Theability to expand into Four Cambridge Center and connect Google's leased premises in the threebuildings is an essential component of Google's campus plan, without which Google hasindicated that it will have to look elsewhere to meet its space needs. We believe that our abilityto retain Google will have significant benefits for the City of Cambridge and its residents,businesses and other community organizations. Google is of course an innovative technologycompany that is a natural fit in the knowledge-based economy of Cambridge, but at the sametime offers an element of economic diversity at a time when much of the City's commercialgrowth has relied on the biotechnology sector. In addition, Google has been an active participantin the Kendall Square business community and has been involved with the promotion of science,technology, engineering and math (STEM) education in Cambridge schools. In short, Google isa valuable corporate citizen and is a key contributor to the atmosphere of excitement andprogress that exists in Kendall Square today. It is our hope that the growth of Google inCambridge will enable the City to realize economic and community benefits for many years tocome.

In addition to being located on the Four and Five Cambridge Center propertiesthemselves, a portion of the connector building between Four and Five Cambridge Center wouldbe constructed over the existing garage facility known as the Cambridge Center East Garage.'2 Three Cambridge Center is owned by Three Cambridge Center Trust, of which Boston Properties LimitedPartnership is the sole beneficiary.3 The Cambridge Center East Garage is located on property owned by Two Cambridge Center Trust, of whichBoston Properties Limited Partnership is the sole beneficiary. Two Cambridge Center Trust ground leases thegarage site to BP East Garage LLC, an affiliate of Boston Properties Limited Partnership.

The location of the connector building is shown on Exhibit C attached to this letter. The FourCambridge Center property is subject to an Open Space Restriction Covenant dated August 6,1982 and recorded with the Middlesex South District Registry of Deed in Book 14692, Page 111(the "Four CC Covenant"), a copy of which is attached to this letter as Exhibit D. The EastGarage property is subject to an Open Space Restriction Covenant No.2 dated September 25,1986 and recorded with the Registry in Book 17438, Page 57 (the "East Garage Covenant"), acopy of which is attached to this letter as Exhibit E. The Four CC Covenant and the East GarageCovenant are sometimes hereinafter referred. to collectively as the "Covenants." The Covenantswere put in place in order to comply with the provisions of Section 14.42 of the ZoningOrdinance, which requires that a minimum of 100,000 square feet be reserved or designated aspublic open space for public use and enjoyment within the MXD District. Section 14.42specifies a number of methods for creating the requisite amount of open space, including"dedication, by covenant or comparable legal instrument, to the community use of the residents,lessees and visitors to the District for reasonable amounts of time on a regular basis.'

As shown on Exhibit C, the connector building would be constructed over portions of theFour Cambridge Center and East Garage properties that are subject to the Covenants.Accordingly, the Covenants would need to be modified in order to allow for the connectorbuilding to be located in these areas. Attached as Exhibits F and G are proposed modifications tothe Covenants, together with a recordable plan showing the modified areas subject to the openspace restrictions (attached hereto as Exhibit H). The result would be a reduction in the amountof open space under the Four CC Covenant by 6,494 square feet (from 13,565 square feet to7,071 square feet) and a reduction in the amount of open space under the East Garage Covenantby 11,653 square feet (from 29,222 square feet to 18,269 square feet), for a total reduction of18,147 square feet (from 43,487 square feet to 25,340 square feet).

In consideration of the modification of the Covenants and the reduction in open spaceBoston Properties Limited Partnership, together with the Cambridge Redevelopment Authority,is proposing the following:

1. the extension of the current expiration date for the dedication of the remainingopen space on the East Garage roof to the public from August 5, 2022 to August5,2050 (as stated in Section 2 of the modifications attached as Exhibits E and F) ;and

2. the creation of a new at-grade urban park (as shown on Exhibit I attached hereto)on a parcel of land owned by the Cambridge Redevelopment Authority at thecorner of Binney Street and Galileo Galilee Way adjacent to the "InnovationBoulevard" project funded by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation,which would be dedicated as public open space for a period of 40 years by the

covenant attached hereto as Exhibit J and which is more than twice the size of thearea that is being impacted by the Google plan (approximately 47,000 square feetbeing added by the creation of the new park versus 18,147 square feet beingremoved as part of the reconfiguration of the East Garage roof park toaccommodate the connector building).

There are currently 133,733 square feet of publicly dedicated open space in Cambridge Center.This plan will increase the overall amount of publicly dedicated open space to 162,586 squarefeet (even after taking into account the 18,147 square feet that would be removed from therooftop park on the East Garage), and will add an exciting new amenity to the project area thatwill be closer and more easily accessible to the neighborhoods surrounding Cambridge Center.

The Four CC Covenant provides that it may be modified by a majority vote of the CityCouncil with the approval of the grantor and the ground lessee of the East Garage. The EastGarage Covenant similarly provides that it may be modified by a majority vote of the CityCouncil with the approval of the grantor and the ground lessee of the East Garage. This letter isto respectfully request that the proposed modifications to the Covenants be presented to the CityCouncil by the City Manager.

Please do not hesitate to contact us should you require any additional information in orderto process this request. In the meantime, thank you for your attention.
