judgment and which is material to the cause of action. Our charter contains such a provision which eliminates directors&#146; and officers&#146; liability to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Our charter authorizes us, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, to obligate ourselves to indemnify and to pay or reimburse
reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding to (1)&nbsp;any present or former director or officer or (2)&nbsp;any individual who, while a director or officer of our company and at our request, serves or has served another
REIT, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or any other enterprise as a trustee, director, officer or partner of such REIT, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise
from and against any claim or liability to which such individual may become subject or which such individual may incur by reason of his or her service in such capacity. Our bylaws obligate us, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, to
indemnify and to pay or reimburse reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding to (1)&nbsp;any present or former director or officer who is made, or threatened to be made, a party to, or witness in, the proceeding by reason of

benefit plan or other enterprise as a trustee, director, officer, member, manager or partner and who is made, or threatened to be made, a party to the proceeding by reason of his or her service in that capacity. Our charter and bylaws also permit us
to indemnify and advance expenses to any individual who served a predecessor of our company in any of the capacities described above and to any employee or agent of our company or a predecessor of our company. </P>

 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Maryland law requires a corporation (unless its charter provides otherwise, which our charter
does not) to indemnify a director or officer who has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which he or she is made, or threatened to be made, a party by reason of his or her service in that capacity.
Maryland law permits a corporation to indemnify its present and former directors and officers, among others, against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by them in connection with any proceeding to
which they may be made, or threatened to be made, a party by reason of their service in those or other capacities unless it is established that (1)&nbsp;the act or omission of the director or officer was material to the matter giving rise to the
proceeding and (a)&nbsp;was committed in bad faith or (b)&nbsp;was a result of active and deliberate dishonesty, (2)&nbsp;the director or officer actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services or (3)&nbsp;in the case
of any criminal proceeding, the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. However, a Maryland corporation may not indemnify for an adverse judgment in a suit by or in the right of the corporation or
for a judgment of liability on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received, unless in either case a court orders indemnification and then only for expenses. Maryland law permits a corporation to advance reasonable expenses to a director
or officer upon the corporation&#146;s receipt of (1)&nbsp;a written affirmation by the director or officer of his or her good faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification and (2)&nbsp;a written
undertaking by him or her or on his or her behalf to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by us if it shall ultimately be determined that the standard of conduct was not met. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our executive officers and directors whereby we agree to indemnify such executive
officers and directors to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law against all expenses and liabilities, subject to limited exceptions. The indemnification agreements require us to indemnify the director or officer party thereto, the indemnitee,
against all judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement and all expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the indemnitee or on his or her behalf in connection with a proceeding, unless it is established that one of the exceptions
to indemnification under Maryland law set forth above exists. The indemnification agreements prohibit indemnification in connection with a proceeding that is brought by or in the right of our company if the director or officer is adjudged liable to
us, unless a court orders indemnification, and then only for expenses. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, the indemnification agreements require us to advance
reasonable expenses incurred by the indemnitee within ten days of the receipt by us of a statement from the indemnitee requesting the advance, provided the statement evidences the expenses and is accompanied by: </P>

This Registration Statement registers the issuance of an additional 5,400,000 shares of common stock, which are issuable under the BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. and BioMed Realty, L.P. 2004 Incentive Award Plan, as amended
and restated (the "2004 Plan"). The amendment and restatement of the 2004 Plan, which authorized the issuance of such additional shares, was approved by the stockholders of the Registrant on May 29, 2013. The 2004 Plan authorizes the
issuance of a maximum of 10,740,000 shares of common stock. However, the offer and sale of 5,340,000 shares of common stock, which have been or may be issued under the 2004 Plan, have previously been registered pursuant to Registration Statements on
Form S-8 (File Nos. 333-117977 and 333-161760). Pursuant to Rule 416 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, this Registration Statement shall also cover any additional shares of common stock which become issuable under the above-named plan by
reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or any other similar transaction effected without the receipt of consideration which results in an increase in the number of the Registrant's outstanding shares of common stock.
(2)
This estimate is made pursuant to Rule 457(h) solely for purposes of calculating the registration fee, and is based on the average of the high and low sale prices for the Registrant's common stock as reported on
the New York Stock Exchange on February 4, 2014.
Proposed sales to take place as soon after the effective date of
this Registration Statement
as awards granted under the 2004 Plan are granted, exercised and/or distributed.
EXPLANATORY NOTE
This Registration Statement on Form S-8 registers the offer and sale of an additional 5,400,000 shares of common stock of BioMed Realty Trust,
Inc. available for issuance under the BioMed Realty Trust, Inc. and BioMed Realty, L.P. 2004 Incentive Award Plan, as amended and restated (the "2004 Plan"). In accordance with Instruction E to Form S-8, the contents of the previous
Registration Statements on Form S-8 (File Nos. 333-117977 and 333-161760) are hereby incorporated by reference.
Item 3. Incorporation of
Documents by Reference.
The Securities and Exchange Commission allows us to "incorporate by reference" the information we
file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which means that we can disclose important information to you by referring to those documents. The information incorporated by reference is an important part of this prospectus. The incorporated
documents contain significant information about us, our business and our finances. We incorporate by reference the following documents we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission:
•
Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013;
•
The description of our common stock included in our registration statement on Form 8-A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 30, 2004; and
•
All documents filed by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), after the date of
this prospectus and prior to the termination of this offering of securities.
Any statement contained in a document
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein, or in any subsequently filed document which also
is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein, modifies or supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute part of this Registration Statement.
Under no circumstances will any information filed under current item 2.02 or 7.01 of Form 8-K be deemed incorporated herein by reference unless such Form 8-K expressly provides to the contrary
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Maryland law permits a Maryland corporation to include in its charter a provision limiting the liability of its directors and officers to the
corporation and its stockholders for money damages except for liability resulting from (1) actual receipt of an improper benefit or profit in money, property or services or (2) active and deliberate dishonesty established by a final
judgment and which is material to the cause of action. Our charter contains such a provision which eliminates directors' and officers' liability to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law.
Our charter authorizes us, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, to obligate ourselves to indemnify and to pay or reimburse
reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding to (1) any present or former director or officer or (2) any individual who, while a director or officer of our company and at our request, serves or has served another
REIT, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or any other enterprise as a trustee, director, officer or partner of such REIT, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise
from and against any claim or liability to which such individual may become subject or which such individual may incur by reason of his or her service in such capacity. Our bylaws obligate us, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law, to
indemnify and to pay or reimburse reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding to (1) any present or former director or officer who is made, or threatened to be made, a party to, or witness in, the proceeding by reason of
his or her service in that capacity or (2) any individual who, while a director or officer of our company and at our request, serves or has served another REIT, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee
benefit plan or other enterprise as a trustee, director, officer, member, manager or partner and who is made, or threatened to be made, a party to the proceeding by reason of his or her service in that capacity. Our charter and bylaws also permit us
to indemnify and advance expenses to any individual who served a predecessor of our company in any of the capacities described above and to any employee or agent of our company or a predecessor of our company.
Maryland law requires a corporation (unless its charter provides otherwise, which our charter
does not) to indemnify a director or officer who has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any proceeding to which he or she is made, or threatened to be made, a party by reason of his or her service in that capacity.
Maryland law permits a corporation to indemnify its present and former directors and officers, among others, against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by them in connection with any proceeding to
which they may be made, or threatened to be made, a party by reason of their service in those or other capacities unless it is established that (1) the act or omission of the director or officer was material to the matter giving rise to the
proceeding and (a) was committed in bad faith or (b) was a result of active and deliberate dishonesty, (2) the director or officer actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services or (3) in the case
of any criminal proceeding, the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe that the act or omission was unlawful. However, a Maryland corporation may not indemnify for an adverse judgment in a suit by or in the right of the corporation or
for a judgment of liability on the basis that personal benefit was improperly received, unless in either case a court orders indemnification and then only for expenses. Maryland law permits a corporation to advance reasonable expenses to a director
or officer upon the corporation's receipt of (1) a written affirmation by the director or officer of his or her good faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification and (2) a written
undertaking by him or her or on his or her behalf to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by us if it shall ultimately be determined that the standard of conduct was not met.
We have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our executive officers and directors whereby we agree to indemnify such executive
officers and directors to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law against all expenses and liabilities, subject to limited exceptions. The indemnification agreements require us to indemnify the director or officer party thereto, the indemnitee,
against all judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement and all expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the indemnitee or on his or her behalf in connection with a proceeding, unless it is established that one of the exceptions
to indemnification under Maryland law set forth above exists. The indemnification agreements prohibit indemnification in connection with a proceeding that is brought by or in the right of our company if the director or officer is adjudged liable to
us, unless a court orders indemnification, and then only for expenses.
In addition, the indemnification agreements require us to advance
reasonable expenses incurred by the indemnitee within ten days of the receipt by us of a statement from the indemnitee requesting the advance, provided the statement evidences the expenses and is accompanied by:
•
a written affirmation of the indemnitee's good faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification, and
•
an undertaking by or on behalf of the indemnitee to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined that the standard of conduct was not met.
The indemnification agreements also provide for procedures for the determination of entitlement to indemnification, including requiring such
determination be made by independent counsel after a change of control of us.
In addition, our directors and officers are indemnified for
specified liabilities and expenses pursuant to the partnership agreement of BioMed Realty, L.P., the limited partnership in which we serve as sole general partner.
Insofar as the foregoing provisions permit indemnification of directors, officers or persons controlling us for liability arising under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), we have been informed that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, this indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is
therefore unenforceable.
