It is phosphorous surrounded by the three bromines with single bonds. There are a total of 26 valence electrons, so each bromine is surrounded by three pairs of dots, with a lone pair on the phosphorous.

The dot structure has a B atom in the center with three single bonds to the east, west and north. Each single bond has a Br atom which has three double dots on the unconnected sides.
