Post Properties Expands Its Credit Facility to $600 Million

ATLANTA, November 2, 2007 — Post Properties, Inc. (NYSE: PPS) today announced that it has expanded by $150 million its unsecured revolving line of credit facility, bringing the total commitment to $600 million. The expanded credit facility will provide additional liquidity to the Company to be used for general corporate purposes and to fund Post’s growing development pipeline. As of November 2, 2007, the Company had $260 million of borrowings outstanding under this facility.

The pricing and maturity of its existing credit facility remained unchanged and currently bears an interest rate of 57.5 basis points over the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), requires the payment of an annual facility fee currently equal to 15 basis points based on the aggregate loan commitments and matures in April 2010. The facility provides for the interest rate and facility fee to be adjusted up or down based on changes in the credit ratings of the Company’s senior unsecured debt. The $600 million senior unsecured credit facility also includes an uncommitted competitive bid option generally for up to 50% of the facility, as long as the Company maintains its investment grade credit rating. The facility also contains customary representations, covenants and events of default, certain of which were modified in conjunction with the expansion of the facility.

Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. were the lead arrangers for the $600 million senior unsecured credit facility, and the facility was provided by a syndicate of 17 banks, five of which were new lenders under the expanded facility. Wachovia Bank, National Association, serves as administrative agent for the senior unsecured credit facility.
