1	Represents 3,429,898 shares of common stock of Maguire Properties, Inc. (the “Issuer”), plus 1,406,452 shares of common stock of the Issuer that currently are issuable upon redemption of an equal number of limited partnership units (“OP Units”) of Maguire Properties, L.P (“Maguire OP”). Mr. Maguire also owns an additional 5,142,431 OP Units that are not currently redeemable for shares of common stock of the Issuer. Under the terms of the Issuer’s charter, Mr. Maguire may not beneficially own (within the meaning of the Issuer’s charter) more than 9.8% of the Issuer’s outstanding common stock (the “Ownership Limit”). The Maguire OP agreement of limited partnership in turn prohibits Mr. Maguire from redeeming OP Units of Maguire OP if such redemption would cause Mr. Maguire to beneficially own (within the meaning of the Issuer’s charter) an amount of common stock in excess of the Ownership Limit (see Item 5).

2	Calculated based on 47,943,903 shares of common stock outstanding as of November 5, 2009, as reported by the Issuer on its quarterly report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 9, 2009, plus 1,406,452 shares of common stock that currently are issuable upon redemption of an equal number of OP Units that are beneficially owned by Mr. Maguire (see Item 5).

Introductory Note

This amendment amends the Schedule 13D filed on January 15, 2009 (the “Schedule 13D”) by Robert F. Maguire III (the “Reporting Person”). This amendment relates to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Maguire Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Issuer"). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this amendment shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 13D.

Items 4, 5 and 6 of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended as follows:

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

The shares of Common Stock and OP Units previously reported on the Schedule 13D were acquired by the Reporting Person primarily for investment purposes. The Reporting Person regularly reviews and evaluates strategies with respect to his various investments, including his investment in the Issuer. As a consequence of such review, evaluation and other factors that the Reporting Person deems relevant, he may consider various alternatives which may ultimately lead to one or more possible transactions with respect to his investment in the Issuer. In the course of such consideration, the Reporting Person may discuss internally and communicate, publicly or privately, with the Issuer, other shareholders, industry analysts, existing or potential strategic partners or competitors, investment and financing professionals, sources of capital and other investors, regarding his holdings in the Issuer and his views on issues relating to the strategic direction undertaken or to be undertaken by the Issuer and other matters of interest to shareholders generally. Possible transactions may include, either alone or together with potential co-investors or partners, the acquisition of additional shares or selected divestitures of shares of common stock of the Issuer, an acquisition of all outstanding shares of common stock not currently owned by the Reporting Person, an acquisition of assets of the Issuer or another form of extraordinary transaction.

There can be no assurance as to (w) whether the Reporting Person will enter into any discussions with respect to his investments, (x) whether any such discussions will lead to any transaction, (y) what the terms of any such transaction may be, or (z) the timing or certainty of any such transaction.

Additionally, if the Reporting Person were to submit a proposal to the board of directors of the Issuer with respect to any of the actions described above, the Reporting Person is not aware of how the board of directors would react or whether the board of directors would support or take any action with respect to any proposal.

In reaching any conclusions regarding his investments, the Reporting Person will take into consideration a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the Issuer's operations, prospects, business development, management, competitive and strategic matters, capital structure, prevailing market conditions and tax and other investment considerations.

As noted below, the Reporting Person disposed of 618,255 of the shares of Common Stock held by him in open market sales beginning on January 29, 2010. The Reporting Person anticipates that the remaining shares of Common Stock held directly by him will be sold in similar open market sales.

Except as noted above, the Reporting Person, at this time, does not have any current plans or proposals which relate to or would result in (i) any extraordinary transactions involving the Issuer or (ii) any of the other actions set forth in paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a), (b) Based upon the Issuer’s Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 9, 2009, there were 47,943,903 shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of November 5, 2009. The 4,836,350 shares of Common Stock held by the Reporting person, including the1,406,452 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of OP Units beneficially owned by the Reporting Person as of the date hereof represent approximately 9.8% of the outstanding Common Stock. In addition, the Reporting Person owns 5,142,431 OP Units that are not currently redeemable into shares of Common Stock. Under the terms of the Issuer’s charter, the Reporting Person may not beneficially own (within the meaning of the Issuer’s charter) more than 9.8% of the Issuer’s outstanding Common Stock. The Maguire OP agreement of limited partnership in turn prohibits the Reporting Person from redeeming OP Units of Maguire OP if such redemption would cause the Reporting Person to beneficially own (within the meaning of the Issuer’s charter) an amount of Common Stock in excess of the Ownership Limit.

The Reporting Person has sole voting and dispositive power over the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by him. He also has sole voting and dispositive power over the 1,406,452 OP Units currently redeemable by him and the 5,142,431 OP Units not currently redeemable by him. The Reporting Person holds the shares of Common stock and OP Units as follows:

●	3,429,898 shares of Common Stock held by him directly;
●	1,406,452 shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of OP Units held by him directly;
●	2,037,593 additional OP Units held by him directly that are not currently convertible into Common Stock; and
●	3,104,838 OP Units held by three entities that are wholly owned and controlled by the Reporting Person.

(c) From January 29, 2010, through February 12, 2010, the Reporting Person disposed of 618,255 of the shares of Common Stock held by him in open market transactions in the New York Stock Exchange as follows:

Date	Number of Shares	Price per Share

February 3, 2010	53,800	$1.5980

February 5, 2010	55,430	$1.5074

(d) No person other than the Reporting Person has the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock.

Clause (e) of Item 5 of Schedule 13D is not applicable.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

The shares of Common Stock and OP Units beneficially owned by the Reporting Person, excluding 220,000 OP Units beneficially owned by the Reporting Person, are pledged to Wachovia Bank, N.A. (“Wachovia”) as a portion of the collateral securing a personal loan made by Wachovia to the Reporting Person. The loan matures on July 15, 2011, unless it is retired earlier. If an event of default occurs and is not cured or waived, Wachovia could foreclose on its collateral, including the shares of Common Stock and OP Units that are pledged.
