Entertainment Properties Trust Prices Concurrent Offerings of $75 Million of Series E Cumulative Convertible Preferred Shares and Approximately $100 Million of Common Shares

Both offerings are expected to close on April 2, 2008, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of their respective customary closing conditions.

Each Series E cumulative convertible preferred share is convertible into common shares of the Company at any time, subject to certain conditions, at an initial conversion rate of 0.4512 common shares per $25.00 liquidation preference, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $55.41. Upon conversion, the Company has the option to deliver either common shares or a combination of common shares and cash, subject to certain conditions. The distribution rate on the Series E cumulative convertible preferred shares will be 9.00% of the liquidation preference per year, or $2.25 per share per year. Distributions will be paid quarterly in arrears. An application has been made to list the Series E cumulative convertible preferred shares on the New York Stock Exchange.

For the offering of Series E cumulative convertible preferred shares J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. and Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated are joint bookrunners while RBC Capital Markets Corporation is acting as the co-manager. With respect to the offering of common shares, J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, and RBC Capital Markets Corporation are all joint bookrunners.

The net proceeds from each offering are expected to be used for general business purposes, which may include funding the acquisition, development or financing of properties or the repayment of debt. Pending application of the net proceeds to such uses, the Company expects to use the net proceeds to reduce indebtedness under its unsecured revolving credit facility and to invest any remaining net proceeds in interest-bearing securities which are consistent with the Company's qualifications as a real estate investment trust.

Each offering is being made under an automatic "shelf" registration statement filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and previously declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Each offering is being made solely by means of its respective prospectus. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of either of these securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful.
