This Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO relates to the offer (the “Offer”) by: MPF DeWaay Fund 8, LLC; MPF BADGER ACQUISITION CO., LLC; LAPIS OPPORTUNITIES FUND II, LP; RED INVESTMENTS, LP; MPF DEWAAY PREMIER FUND 4, LLC; MPF FLAGSHIP FUND 9, LLC; MPF SPECIAL FUND 9, LLC; MPF FLAGSHIP FUND 12, LLC; SCM Special Fund 2, LP (collectively the “Purchasers”) to purchase up to 500,000 shares of Class A or Class B (B-1, B-2, or B-3) common stock (the “Shares”) in Piedmont Office Realty Trust, Inc. (the “Corporation”), the subject company, at a purchase price equal to $10 per Share, less the amount of any dividends declared or made with respect to the Shares between February 8, 2010 (the “Offer Date”) and March 23, 2010, or such other date to which this Offer may be extended (the “Expiration Date”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated February 8, 2010 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and the related Assignment Form.

The Purchasers have amended the Offer to extend the Expiration Date to March 23, 2010, because they have discovered that DTC had not properly set up the offer to be disseminated to its participants until recently, so the Purchasers wish to give Shareholders additional time to consider the Offer.  No Shares have yet been tendered.  Further, the Offer is hereby amended to correct Section 2 of the Offer to Purchase, which erroneously stated that the Offer was for 150,000 Shares, not 500,000 Shares.  The Offer is to purchase up to 500,000 Shares and Section 2 is hereby amended accordingly.
