    Believes Nominees Have the Independent Perspectives, Differentiated Real Estate Investment Experience and Shareholder-Focused Mindsets Needed to Help Reverse Lexington's Chronic Underperformance

    Objective and Independent New Voices are Needed in the Boardroom to Oversee Leadership Transition Process and Full Review to Determine the Right Path Forward for LXP

    LXP's Total Shareholder Returns Have Underperformed Proxy Peers and Industrial Peers by Nearly 500% During CEO's 18-year Tenure1

    Today Land & Buildings Investment Management, LLC (together with its affiliates, "Land & Buildings"), a significant shareholder of Lexington Realty Trust ("LXP," "Lexington" or the "Company") (NYSE:LXP), announced its nomination of two highly-qualified and experienced candidates, Donna Brandin and Jonathan Litt, for election to the LXP Board of Trustees (the "Board") at the upcoming 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "Annual Meeting").

    Ms. Brandin is the former Chief Financial Officer of Equity Residential (NYSE:EQR), the largest public owner and operator of apartments in the United States. She also previously served as the Chief Financial Officer of The Lightstone Group, LLC, a privately held real estate investment company, and currently serves as a director and as the Chair of the Audit Committee at Nuveen Global Cities Real Estate Investment Trust, a public non-traded real estate investment company sponsored by Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America.

    Mr. Litt is the Founder and Chief Investment Officer of Land & Buildings Investment Management, and previously was Managing Director and Senior Global Real Estate Analyst at Citigroup. Mr. Litt also previously served as a director on the Boards of Taubman Centers, Inc. (NYSE:TCO) and Mack-Cali Realty Corporation (NYSE:CLI).

    In connection with its nominations, Land & Buildings stated:

    "Lexington's track record of underperformance speaks volumes. During the 18-year tenure of CEO T. Wilson Eglin, the management team and the Board have consistently failed to close the discount between the Company's net asset value and its share price, or deliver shareholder returns on par with peers. Further, LXP's earnings have declined by 60% during the same period and its dividend has been reduced by over 60%2. Inexplicably, Mr. Eglin has been paid more than $65 million in total compensation for overseeing this value destruction3.

    Instead of working constructively to address the concerns we raised as shareholders, Lexington's Board has demonstrated a preference for gamesmanship and for a public proxy contest aimed at preserving the status quo. Unfortunately, history has given shareholders no reason to believe that keeping the current Board in place will result in anything besides more of the same disappointing results.

    It is clear that there is urgent need for real, shareholder-driven board change at Lexington. That is why we have nominated these two individuals, both of whom would bring differentiated real estate investment experience and objective and independent perspectives to the Company. In addition, Jon's appointment would ensure a true shareholder representative would be present to help oversee critical decisions regarding the best path forward for LXP – including the CEO succession process and the formation of a committee focused on evaluating the best pathways to create and maximize value."
