Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On April 13, 2005, a subsidiary of Trustreet Properties, Inc. (“Trustreet”) entered into a commitment letter (the “Commitment”) with The Restaurant Company, a Delaware corporation (“TRC”), pursuant to which TRC will sell to Trustreet and simultaneously lease back from Trustreet up to 68 of TRC’s owned properties which are currently operated by TRC as “Perkins Restaurant and Bakery” restaurants (each, a “Property” and collectively, the “Properties”). The sale and lease back of each Property is conditioned on, among other things, the negotiation and execution by Trustreet and TRC of mutually agreeable definitive purchase and lease agreements, each on the terms specified in the Commitment. The aggregate purchase price for the Properties will be $137,500,000.00, and the lease agreements will each have terms of between 17 and 20 years with two successive ten-year renewal options. Trustreet currently expects to close the transactions contemplated in the Commitment no more than 60 days after the execution of the Commitment.

 

The information disclosed above is being furnished in this Item 7.01 of this Current Report but is not considered “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act of 1934 and is not subject to the liabilities of that section.
