COMMENTS FROM MANAGEMENT
T. Wilson Eglin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Lexington Realty Trust stated, “We are pleased with our accomplishments during the first quarter, especially our leasing activity. We executed 23 leases and ended the quarter with approximately 98.0% of our square footage subject to lease. In addition, we restructured our balance sheet in order to create greater flexibility and efficiency by raising $805 million of fixed rate capital with the proceeds primarily used to retire $637.4 million of shorter term floating rate debt, and to repurchase $84.5 million of common shares/units.” Mr. Eglin continued, “We incurred an expense of $700,000 relating to the termination of an interest rate swap in connection with our debt refinancing. Other charges that impacted Company FFO were $200,000 of merger-related costs that were not capitalized, $1.3 million of accelerated amortization relating to terminating a tenant lease, and a $431,000 write-off of costs incurred related to the previously planned initial public offering of Lexington Strategic Asset Corp. With our restructured balance sheet and high occupancy levels in the portfolio, we believe we are well-positioned to implement our business plan over the balance of the year. In the current market where asset values remain high, we expect to be a more active seller of non-core properties, including our retail assets.”

CAPITAL MARKETS ACTIVITY
$450.0 million, 5.45% Exchangeable Guaranteed Notes
During the quarter ended March 31, 2007, one of Lexington’s operating partnership subsidiaries, The Lexington Master Limited Partnership, issued $450.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.45% Exchangeable Guaranteed Notes Due 2027. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually beginning on July 15, 2007.
The Lexington Master Limited Partnership used the net proceeds of approximately $439.0 million, after initial purchasers’ discounts and the payment of offering related expenses from the sale of the notes, along with other cash sources, to fully repay indebtedness under its secured credit facility, which was then terminated.
7.55% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock
In February, Lexington issued 6.2 million shares of its 7.55% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, at a price of $25.00 per share. Net proceeds from the offering of approximately $150.0 million, after underwriters’ discounts and the payment of offering related expenses, were used to repurchase common shares, repay in full the borrowings under Lexington’s unsecured credit facility, and for general corporate purposes.
The preferred shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “LXP_pd”.
$200.0 million Trust Preferred Securities
In March, Lexington sold $200.0 million liquidation amount of Trust Preferred Securities through its consolidated statutory trust subsidiary, LXP Capital Trust I. Lexington holds all of the Common Securities of the subsidiary, which have a liquidation amount of $6.2 million. LXP Capital Trust I’s assets consist solely of $206.2 million of junior subordinated notes concurrently issued by Lexington with terms that mirror the Trust Preferred Securities.
The Trust Preferred Securities have a 30-year term ending April 2037, are redeemable on or after April 30, 2012, at par (plus breakage costs, if any, for redemptions before April 30, 2017) and pay distributions at a fixed rate of 6.804% for the first ten years ending April 2017 and thereafter, at a floating rate of three month LIBOR plus 1.70%. Proceeds from the issuance were used to repay existing indebtedness and, subsequent to quarter end, to purchase the 70.0% interest in Triple Net Investment Company LLC, one of Lexington’s joint venture programs, that it did not already own.

1 Lexington believes that Funds from Operations (“FFO”) is a widely recognized and appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT. Lexington presents FFO because it considers FFO an important supplemental measure of Lexington’s operating performance. Lexington believes FFO is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of REITs, many of which present FFO when reporting their results. FFO is intended to exclude generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), historical cost depreciation and amortization of real estate and related assets, which assumes that the value of real estate diminishes ratably over time. Historically, however, real estate values have risen or fallen with market conditions. As a result, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year over year, reflects the impact to operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, interest costs and other matters without the inclusion of depreciation and amortization, providing perspective that may not necessarily be apparent from net income.
Lexington computes FFO in accordance with standards established by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“NAREIT”). FFO is defined by NAREIT as “net income (or loss) computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of property, plus real estate depreciation and amortization and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures.” FFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities in accordance with GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund cash needs. FFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow as a measure of liquidity.
Lexington includes in its calculation of FFO, which Lexington refers to as the “Company’s funds from operations” or “Company FFO,” Lexington’s operating partnership units and Lexington’s Series C Cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares because these securities are convertible, at the holder’s option, into Lexington’s common shares. Management believes this is appropriate and relevant to securities analysts, investors and other interested parties because Lexington presents Company FFO on a company-wide basis as if all securities that are convertible, at the holder’s option, into Lexington’s common shares, are converted. Since others do not calculate FFO in a similar fashion, Company FFO may not be comparable to similarly titled measures as reported by others.
