PROXY STATEMENT
FOR ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE HELD MAY 24, 2000

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of
proxies by and on behalf of the Board of Trustees of Lexington Corporate
Properties Trust (the "Company") for use at the 2000 Annual Meeting of
Shareholders, and at any adjournments thereof (the "Annual Meeting"), to be held
on Wednesday, May 24, 2000, at the Chase Conference Center, 270 Park Avenue, New
York, New York 10017 at 10:00 a.m. New York City time. This Proxy Statement and
the related proxy card are first being sent to the Shareholders of the Company
on or about April 14, 2000.

Valid proxies will be voted as specified thereon at the Annual Meeting. Any
person giving a Proxy may revoke it by written notice to the Company at any time
prior to its exercise. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not constitute a
revocation of a proxy unless the Shareholder affirmatively indicates at the
Annual Meeting that such Shareholder intends to vote such Shareholder's shares
in person.

ANNUAL REPORT

The Annual Report to Shareholders and Form 10-K of the Company for the year
ended December 31, 1999, including financial statements audited by KPMG LLP, the
Company's independent auditors, and their report thereon dated January 21, 2000,
are being mailed together with this Proxy Statement to each Shareholder. Except
as specifically incorporated herein by reference, the Annual Report is not part
of the proxy solicitation material.

VOTING SECURITIES

The holders of record of Common Shares, par value $.0001 per share (the
"Common Shares"), and of Class A Senior Cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares
(the "Preferred Shares"), of the Company at the close of business on April 7,
2000 (the "Record Date") are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. On the
Record Date, there were outstanding 17,103,697 Common Shares and 2,000,000
Preferred Shares, each of which Common Shares and Preferred Shares are entitled
to one vote per share on all matters submitted to a vote of Shareholders.

Unless contrary instructions are indicated on the Proxy, all Common Shares
and Preferred Shares represented by valid proxies received pursuant to this
solicitation, unless previously revoked, will be voted at the Annual Meeting FOR
the election of the seven nominees to serve as trustees until the 2001 Annual
Meeting of Shareholders.

Assuming a quorum is present at the Annual Meeting, the affirmative vote of
the holders of a plurality of the Common Shares and Preferred Shares, considered
as a single class, entitled to be voted at the Annual Meeting will be required
for the election of trustees, and the affirmative vote of the holders of a
plurality of the Preferred Shares, voting separately as a single class, entitled
to be voted at the Annual Meeting will be required for the election of the
Preferred Trustee (as defined). For purposes of the foregoing matter, the Common
Shares and Preferred Shares will vote together as a single class, except with
respect to the election of the Preferred Trustee as to which the holders of the
Preferred Shares will vote as a separate class. The Common Shares and Preferred
Shares represented by a valid proxy which abstains with respect to any matter
will be counted in determining the number of votes cast with respect to that
matter but will not be counted as an affirmative vote in determining whether the
affirmative vote of the requisite number of shares was cast in favor of that
matter. Therefore, abstentions as to the election of trustees will not affect
the election of the

2
4

candidates receiving a plurality of the votes cast. Abstentions as to the other
proposals will have the same effect as votes against such proposals. Broker
non-votes will be treated as un-voted for purposes of determining approval of
any such proposal and will not be counted as votes for or against such proposal.
If a Shareholder is a participant in the Company's Dividend Reinvestment Plan,
the proxy card enclosed herewith represents shares in the participant's account,
as well as shares held of record in the participant's name.

The Company knows of no business, other than that set forth above, to be
presented at the Annual Meeting which would be a proper subject for action by
the Shareholders. If any other matter should be presented at the Annual Meeting
upon which a vote properly may be taken, it is intended that any share
represented by a proxy in the accompanying form will be voted with respect
thereto in accordance with the judgment of the person or persons voting such
shares.

SHARE OWNERSHIP OF PRINCIPAL SECURITY HOLDERS,
TRUSTEES AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS

The following table indicates, as of February 29, 2000, (a) the number of

Compensation Table under "COMPENSATION OF EXECUTIVE OFFICERS" below, and by all

currently owned by LCP in two limited partnerships, Net I L.P. and Net 2 L.P.

review of any such transaction by the independent members of its Board of

Net Partnerships at their fair market value based upon a formula relating to
partnership cash flows, with the Company retaining the option of paying such

interest payments as well as any unpaid accrued interest outstanding.

During 1999, the Company sold four properties to the Net Partnerships for

COMPENSATION OF TRUSTEES

Each non-employee trustee, with the exception of Mr. McGurk, receives an
annual fee of $20,000 for service as a trustee. In addition, such trustees
receive $1,000 for each meeting of the Board of Trustees or any committee
thereof attended by the trustee and reimbursement for expenses incurred in
attending such meetings. Pursuant to the 1994 Outside Director Stock Plan, as
amended, each non-employee trustee was required to receive not less than 50% of
such trustee's fees in Common Shares at an amount per share equal to 95% of the
fair market value of one Common Share as of the date of purchase. During 1999,
Messrs. Glickman, Lynch and Zachary elected to receive 100% of their fees in
Common Shares with respect to the four meetings which the Board of Trustees held
in 1999. Pursuant to the Company's 1998 Share Option Plan, non-employee
trustees, with the exception of Mr. McGurk, automatically are granted each year,
on January 1, non-qualified share options to purchase, after a one-year holding
period, 2,500 Common Shares at an exercise price equal to the fair market value
of the Common Shares on the date of the grant. In 1999, non-employee trustees,
with the exception of Mr. McGurk, received 1,250 restricted common shares which
vest ratably over two years.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

During the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, the Compensation Committee
consisted of Messrs. Lynch, McGurk and Zachary. None of such persons are or have
been executive officers of the Company. Mr. Zachary is a partner of Paul,
Hastings, Janofsky & Walker LLP, which is the general counsel to the Company.

REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, all matters concerning
executive compensation for the Co-Chief Executive Officers and other executive
officers were considered and acted upon by the Compensation Committee of the
Board of Trustees.

Compensation Philosophy. The Company's compensation program for executive
officers is based upon a desire to achieve both its short- and long-term
business goals and strategies with a view to enhancing shareholder value. To
achieve its goals, the Company recognizes that it must adopt a compensation
program which will attract, retain and motivate qualified and experienced
executive officers and that its compensation program should align the financial
interests of its executive officers with those of its shareholders. In 1999, the
Company retained an independent third party, to assist in determining the
reasonableness and competitiveness of its compensation program for its executive
officers.

Compensation of Executive Officers (other than the Co-Chief Executive
Officers). In approving the annual salary for Messrs. Eglin, Carroll and Hagen,
the Board of Trustees considered several factors, including the scope of the
individual's responsibilities, the cost of living, the historical financial
results of the Company and the anticipated financial performance of the Company.
The compensation determination for each individual was largely subjective, did
not involve discussions with the individual executive officer regarding such
executive officer's compensation requirements and no specific weight was given
to any particular factor. In addition to their base salaries, these executive
officers of the Company receive discretionary bonuses tied to their individual
performances and the overall performance of the Company. Messrs. Eglin, Carroll
and Hagen are eligible to receive additional bonuses under the Company's
Incentive Bonus Plan tied to growth in the Company's operating cash flow per
share. The Board of Trustees has not established specific performance goals for
the payment of discretionary bonuses.

Compensation of Co-Chief Executive Officers. As with the other executive
officers, the Board of Trustees determined the annual salaries for the Co-Chief
Executive Officers based upon a number of factors and criteria, including the
historical financial results of the Company, the anticipated financial
performance of the Company and the requirements of such Co-Chief Executive
Officers. The compensation determination for each of the Co-Chief Executive
Officers was largely subjective, and no specific weight was given to any
particular factor. The Co-Chief Executive Officers of the Company are also
eligible to receive discretionary bonuses tied to their individual and overall
performances and to participate in the Company's Incentive Bonus Plan. The Board
of Trustees has not established specific performance goals for the payment of
discretionary bonuses.

1998 Share Option Plan. The Company believes that providing executive
officers with opportunities to acquire significant equity stakes in its growth
and prosperity through the grant of share options will enable the Company to
attract and retain qualified and experienced executive officers. Share options
represent a valuable portion of the compensation program for the Company's
executive officers. Share options may be awarded to executive officers at the
time they join the Company and periodically thereafter. The exercise price of
share options has been tied to the fair market value of the Company's Common
Shares on the date of the grant and the options will only have value as the
value of the Company's Common Shares increases. Grants of share options to
executive officers generally are made by the Compensation Committee upon the
recommendation of senior management and are based upon the level of each
executive officer's position with the Company, an evaluation of the executive
officer's past and expected future performance and the number of outstanding and
previously granted options.

Incentive Bonus Plan. The Company maintains an Incentive Bonus Plan
pursuant to which participants in the Incentive Bonus Plan are entitled to
receive annual bonuses which are tied to growth in the Company's operating cash
flow per share. The Incentive Bonus Plan is administered by the Compensation
Committee on an annual basis. The bonus amount, which is shared among plan
participants, will not exceed an amount equal to 10% of the amount determined by
multiplying (a) the difference between (i) the Company's operating cash flow per
share for the year during which the incentive bonus amount is being determined
(the "Measurement Year") (before calculation of the bonus amount) and (ii)
$1.14, the Company's operating cash flow per share for the calendar year 1993
(calculated as if the Company had been in existence on January 1, 1993) by
10
12

(b) the weighted average number of Common Shares outstanding during the
Measurement Year. The Incentive Bonus Plan also provides that, notwithstanding
the foregoing, no incentive bonus will be paid in respect of any Measurement
Year if the Company's operating cash flow per share (before calculation of the
bonus amount) for the Measurement Year does not exceed the Company's operating
cash flow per share in the year prior to the Measurement Year. The participants
in the Incentive Bonus Plan currently include Messrs. Roskind, Rouse, Eglin,
Carroll and Hagen. No bonuses under the Incentive Bonus Plan were payable with
respect to the fiscal years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and 1997.

Other Bonuses. In addition to bonuses that may be payable to participants
under the Incentive Bonus Plan, the Compensation Committee may also approve the
payment of other bonuses to executive officers and employees of the Company
based on their contributions and performances.
