Item 7.01    Regulation FD Disclosure.

On May 2, 2012, Lexington Realty Trust, which we refer to as the Trust, sold all of its interests in Concord Debt Holdings LLC and CDH CDO LLC for $7.0 million in cash in the aggregate. The sale of the Trust's interests in Concord Debt Holdings LLC and CDH CDO LLC eliminated the Trust's only exposure to excess inclusion income, which is generally required to be treated as “unrelated business taxable income,” or UBTI, by tax-exempt organizations.
The information furnished pursuant to this “Item 7.01 - Regulation FD Disclosure” shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which we refer to as the Exchange Act, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and shall not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing made by the Trust under the Exchange Act or Securities Act of 1933, as amended, regardless of any general incorporation language in any such filing, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
