I, T. Wilson Eglin,  Chief Executive Officer of Lexington  Corporate  Properties
Trust (the "Company"), certify that:

1.      I have reviewed this report on Form 10-Q/A of the Company;

2.      Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement
        of a material  fact or omit to state a material  fact  necessary to make
        the  statements  made,  in light of the  circumstances  under which such
        statements  were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered
        by this report;

3.      Based on my knowledge,  the financial  statements,  and other  financial
        information  included in this  report,  fairly  present in all  material
        respects the financial  condition,  results of operations and cash flows
        of the Company as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;

4.      The  Company's  other  certifying  officers  and I are  responsible  for
        establishing  and  maintaining  disclosure  controls and  procedures (as
        defined in Exchange  Act Rules  13a-15(e)  and  15d-15(e))  and internal
        control  over  financial  reporting  (as defined in  Exchange  Act Rules
        13a-15(f) and 15(d)-15(f)) for the Company and have:

        a)     designed such disclosure controls and procedures,  or caused such
               disclosure  controls  and  procedures  to be  designed  under our
               supervision,  to ensure that material information relating to the
               Company, including its consolidated  subsidiaries,  is made known
               to us by others within those  entities,  particularly  during the
               period in which this report is being prepared;

        b)     designed  such  internal  control over  financial  reporting,  or
               caused such  internal  control  over  financial  reporting  to be
               designed under our supervision,  to provide reasonable  assurance
               regarding  the   reliability  of  financial   reporting  and  the
               preparation  of financial  statements  for  external  purposes in
               accordance with generally accepted accounting principles;

        c)     evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's  disclosure controls
               and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about
               the effectiveness of the disclosure  controls and procedures,  as
               of the end of the  period  covered by this  report  based on such
               evaluation; and

        d)     disclosed  in this  report any change in the  Company's  internal
               control  over  financial   reporting  that  occurred  during  the
               Company's   most  recent  fiscal   quarter  that  has  materially
               affected,  or is  reasonably  likely to  materially  affect,  the
               Company's internal control over financial reporting and

5.      The Company's other certifying  officers and I have disclosed,  based on
        our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting,
        to the Company's auditors and the Audit Committee of the Company's board
        of trustees (or persons performing the equivalent functions):

        a)     all  significant  deficiencies  and  material  weaknesses  in the
               design or operation of internal control over financial  reporting
               which are  reasonably  likely to adversely  affect the  Company's
               ability  to  record,  process,  summarize  and  report  financial
               information; and

        b)     any fraud,  whether or not material,  that involves management or
               other  employees  who have a  significant  role in the  Company's
               internal control over financial reporting.
