LXP Industrial Trust Concludes Leopard Merger and Removes Securities From Registration

LXP Industrial Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust formerly known as Lexington Realty Trust and, prior to that, Lexington Corporate Properties Trust, filed this post-effective amendment to formally close eleven Form S-3 registration statements it had maintained over the years. The earliest of those statements, Registration No. 333-03688, was originally filed on April 16, 1996, and the most recent group, covering registration numbers 333-157857 through 333-157860, were filed on March 11, 2009. According to the filing, all offerings under those statements have been terminated in connection with the closing of the mergers.

The filing describes a two-step transaction. In the first step, LXP Industrial Trust merged with and into Leopard Merger Sub LLC, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Leopard REIT LLC, with Leopard Merger Sub LLC serving as the initial surviving entity. In the second step, completed also on November 2, 2026, that initial surviving entity merged with and into Leopard Intermediate LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of Leopard REIT LLC, which became the final surviving entity. The filing notes that "as a result of the Mergers, Parent became the sole member of the Surviving Entity."

The deregistration action fulfills undertakings the Registrant had previously made within each of the eleven registration statements to remove from registration, by post-effective amendment, any securities that remained unsold or unissued at the termination of the applicable offering. LXP Industrial Trust was classified as a large accelerated filer as indicated on the cover page of this filing. The amendment was signed by Gautam Huded in his capacity as Executive Vice President of Leopard Intermediate LLC, acting as successor by merger to LXP Industrial Trust, and the filing notes that no other person was required to sign in reliance upon Rule 478 under the Securities Act of 1933.
