BETHESDA, Md., Dec. 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- American Capital
Strategies Ltd. (NASDAQ:ACAS) announced today it has invested $81
million in the BBB-, BB+, BB, BB-, B+, B, B- and non-rated tranches
of J.P. Morgan Chase Commercial Mortgage 2005-LDP5 (2005-LDP5), a
$4.2 billion commercial mortgage backed security trust (CMBS), the
largest completed in 2005. This represents a 41% discount to the

195 commercial mortgage loans sold by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.,
Eurohypo AG, Nomura Credit and Capital, Inc., PNC Bank, N.A., IXIS
Real Estate Capital, Inc. and AIG Mortgage Capital, LLC. The

first investment in the securitization of commercial mortgages of
private companies and the first transaction completed by our
Commercial Mortgage Asset Management Group, headed by Doug Cooper,"
said American Capital Chairman, President and CEO Malon Wilkus. "We
entered the commercial mortgage arena after considerable due
diligence and market research and after bringing aboard one of the
leading investors in the industry. We are applying American
Capital's considerable experience in asset backed securities to the
commercial mortgage sector where we expect to earn current cash
returns on investments in a highly granular pool of commercial
mortgage assets." American Capital has invested approximately $3.2
billion year to date and $1 billion quarter to date. These amounts
do not include American Capital's unfunded equity commitment to its
affiliate European Capital. For more information about American

Capital believes it is entering the CMBS market at an excellent
time," said Doug Cooper, American Capital Managing Director. "CMBS
delinquency rates have been steadily decreasing over the past
several years, in part due to better property markets and in part
due to greater sophistication and more active management on the
part of investors and loan servicers. This particular investment is
characterized by a high degree of granularity within cross-
collateralized pools of loans along with a broad diversification of
geography, property type and loan size." The tranches and
corresponding face values in which American Capital has invested
are rated by Fitch and S&P as follows: TRANCHE RATING FACE
VALUE (000) K BBB- $5,000 L BB+ $26,232 M BB $15,739 N BB- $15,738
O B+ $5,247 P B $5,246 Q B- $10,493 Non-Rated Non-Rated $52,463
Average loan balance for 2005-LDP5 is $21.5 million while average
balance per mortgaged property is $13.4 million. Mr. Cooper joined
American Capital in October 2005 from CWCapital LLC, where he was
Managing Director in charge of its Washington, DC office. CWCapital
oversaw the May, 2005 acquisition of Allied Capital's CMBS and CDO
portfolio by the Caisse de Depot en placement de Quebec. Mr. Cooper
has spent his career in the commercial real estate mortgage
