EXPLANATORY NOTE
On April 30, 2007, Entertainment Properties Trust (the Company) provided statements to the
Institutional Shareholder Services, Inc. (ISS) in response to questions raised by ISS with
respect to the status of the Companys First Amended and Restated 1997 Share Incentive Plan (the
1997 Plan) in the event the Companys 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2007 Plan) is approved at
the Companys 2007 Annual Shareholders Meeting (the 2007 Annual Meeting). The Company is filing
these statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) as additional soliciting
material under Rule 14a-6 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in connection with the
solicitation of proxies for the approval of the 2007 Plan at the Companys 2007 Annual Meeting.
The Company provided the following clarification to the ISS:
The shares remaining available for issuance or award under the 1997 Plan will no
longer be available for issuance or award under either the 1997 Plan or the 2007
Plan after shareholder approval of the 2007 Plan, provided that awards made under
the 1997 Plan prior to shareholder approval of the 2007 Plan will remain subject to
their then existing terms and conditions.
The Company has previously filed with the SEC and distributed to the Companys shareholders
the Companys definitive Proxy Statement and Notice of 2007 Annual Shareholders Meeting. The
Proxy Statement and Notice contain important information concerning the matters to be voted on at
the 2007 Annual Shareholders Meeting, including the position of the Board of Directors with
respect to those matters. Please note that the statements herein should be read in conjunction
with the Companys Proxy Statement and Notice of 2007 Annual Shareholders Meeting.
You can obtain any of the documents that we file with the SEC through the SECs Web site
(www.sec.gov) or they can be reviewed and copied at the SECs Public Reference Room at 100
F Street N.E., Washington, D.C. 20549. Please call 1-800-732-0330 for further information on the
