Notes to Editors

London & Stamford Property, a closed-ended investment company based in Guernsey, is advised by LSI Management LLP ("LSIM") which has a highly experienced management team. The principal partners of LSIM include Raymond Mould, Patrick Vaughan, Martin McGann, Jeremy Bishop and Stewart Little. Raymond Mould, Patrick Vaughan and Martin McGann are also non-executive directors of London & Stamford Property.

The Company was established on 1 October 2007 in order to exploit opportunities that it anticipated in the UK property cycles to invest principally in commercial property.

The Company raised £247.5 million (gross proceeds) through a placing in November 2007 when it was admitted to trading on AIM (LSP.L).

In October 2007, the Company entered into a five year revolving credit facility with Bank of Scotland for £150 million.  The facility is extendable by the Company for a further two years and carries a margin of 80 basis points over LIBOR.

The Company made no acquisitions during 2008, considering that market conditions did not offer sufficient value.  It made six new investments in 2009 using £190 million of equity.

In July 2009, the Company raised a further £219.5 million (net of expenses) through a placing and open offer and so far in 2010 the Company has made two new investments using £100m of equity.
