NEW YORK--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--CapLease, Inc. (NYSE: LSE)announced today that it has entered
into a definitive agreement with an affiliate of Golden Gate Capital to sell 3,144,654 shares of its common stock at a
negotiated price of $4.77 per share. CapLease estimates that it will receive net proceeds from the offering after
offering expenses of approximately $15 million, which it will use to reduce principal on its recourse debt obligations,
which may include its convertible senior notes and borrowings under its credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank,
N.A. (as successor to Wachovia Bank, N.A.), and for general corporate purposes. CapLease expects the offering
to close on or about March 30, 2010, subject to customary closing conditions. Upon consummation of the
transaction, CapLease intends to discontinue use of its at-the-market common stock funding facility for the
intermediate term.
