Atlanta, March 16 - Lanesborough Real Estate Investment Trust said it has wrapped up the C$8,431,000 second tranche of its previously announced overall C$12 million private placement.

The company sold subordinated series E convertible debentures to investors in Ontario, Manitoba, Alberta and British Columbia.

The debentures mature in five years, bear interest at 8% annually and are convertible into trust units after two years from closing at C$6.50 each in the third year, C$7.15 in the fourth year and C$7.90 in the fifth year.

The company closed the first tranche of the deal Feb. 15 for C$3,569,000.

Wellington West Capital Inc., Westwind Partners Inc. and Desjardins Securities Inc. were the placement agents.
