Transaction Overview
Stoneleigh Partners Acquisition Corp. (Stoneleigh) has entered into a letter of intent for a transaction with Realty
Finance Corporation (RFC or the Company),
a commercial real estate specialty finance company primarily
focused on managing a diversified portfolio of commercial real estate-related loans and securities
As of December 31, 2008, the net carrying value of RFCs investments was approximately $1.2 billion and its GAAP stockholders
equity was $218 million
RFCs portfolio is comprised solely of commercial real estate debt and equity investments
RFC has long-term financing in place through the issuance of two CDOs with original capitalization totaling $1.6 billion (both of
which are currently failing collateral coverage tests)
Under the terms of the transaction, Stoneleigh will make a $25 million cash investment in RFC
Stoneleigh will receive 31.0 million shares of newly issued RFC common stock (a controlling interest in RFC) and a $31.25 million
principal amount senior secured note of RFC (the Note)
As of March 12, 2009 there were 30.9 million shares of RFC outstanding
The Note will be secured by a first priority senior secured position in all of the assets of RFC, including the capital stock of
RFCs subsidiaries, and bear interest at the rate of 8%
Stoneleigh shall have the option to adjust its investment to any amount between $20 million and $150 million
The number of shares of common stock and principal amount of the Note shall be adjusted proportionately
Stoneleigh will have the right to appoint three of six members to RFCs board of directors upon the closing of the transaction
Stoneleigh intends to seek stockholder approval to amend its certificate of incorporation to extend its corporate
existence in order to enable it to complete the proposed transaction
Stoneleigh needs 51% shareholder approval to proceed with the extension and is offering its shareholders the opportunity to
receive part or all of their pro rata share of Stoneleighs cash
held in trust
Opportunity
Partner with highly experienced real estate work-out management team from both RFC and Stoneleigh
RFC

Freeman Health System and as well as multiple resort properties
Transaction with RFC expected to provide access to substantial attractive future investment opportunities
Direct control of $1.2 billion pool of commercial real estate debt and equity investments through a unique structure
$1.2 billion pool provides front row seat to a much larger (~$5 billion) pool of assets
Substantial workout opportunities expected to arise as existing loans mature of the next several years
Stoneleigh management team believes value can be created by:
Maximizing investment value over time
Appropriately dealing with existing CDO debt
Other opportunities that will arise from existing portfolio and other distressed real estate securities
Ability to leverage the RFC platform for other non-RFC investment opportunities
Future cost rationalizations and saving
