Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
 
On October 4, 2004, Capital Lease Funding, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release disclosing historical financial information for the Company’s quarterly fiscal period ended September 30, 2005, a copy of which is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 hereto.
 
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Item 2.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liability of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
 
Item 2.06 Material Impairment .
 
On October 4, 2005, the Company announced that, as the owner of the most subordinate security class in the CMLBC 2001-1 securitization transaction (the “Trust”), it directed the Trust’s special servicer to sell all of the $22.4 million of Winn-Dixie pass through certificates included as collateral in the Trust. The sales were made in a controlled and orderly manner throughout the second half of the third quarter of 2005 and were completed by September 30, 2005.
 
As a result of the sale of the Winn-Dixie certificates, the primary exposure to the Trust from Winn-Dixie backed collateral has been removed, and the Trust has realized losses that have impacted the carry value of the most junior classes of securities held by the Company. Accordingly, the Company expects to recognize a realized loss on these securities in the third quarter of 2005 of approximately $1.5 million, and a non-cash mark to market loss attributed to the reduction in the carry value of these securities in the amount of approximately $0.6 million, or $0.07 to $0.08 per share in the aggregate.
