On November 27, 2012, Mission West Properties, Inc. (Mission West or the
Company) filed a definitive proxy statement dated November 27, 2012 (the Proxy Statement) in connection with a Special Meeting of Stockholders to be held on December 13, 2012, at 10:00 a.m., Pacific Time, at Mission
Wests principal executive offices at 10050 Bandley Drive, Cupertino, California 95014, at which our stockholders will be asked to consider and vote on three proposals that, if approved, will result in the liquidation and dissolution of Mission
West (collectively, the Transactions). The first proposal is to approve the recapitalization of Mission Wests six operating partnerships. The second proposal is to approve the sale of substantially all of Mission Wests assets
to a third party following the recapitalization. The third proposal is to approve the liquidation of Mission West.
On
December 3, 2012, a purported class action lawsuit (the Class Action Lawsuit) was filed by plaintiff Fundamental Partners in the Superior Court of California, Santa Clara County against the Company, its officers and directors, Divco
West Acquisitions, LLC (Divco), TPG Capital L.P. (TPG) and M West Holdings, L.P. (M West Holdings). The complaint alleges, among other things, that (1) Mission Wests directors breached their fiduciary
duties, (2) Mission Wests directors breached their fiduciary duty of disclosure causing Mission West to make materially inadequate disclosures and by omitting material information and (3) Divco, TPG and M West Holdings purportedly
aided and abetted fiduciary breaches by Mission Wests directors. The complaint seeks, among other things, an injunction enjoining defendants from consummating the Transactions until additional disclosures are made, compensatory and rescissory
damages, interests, and costs and fees.
These Definitive Additional Materials are being filed pursuant to a memorandum of
understanding (the MOU) regarding the settlement of the Class Action Lawsuit. These Definitive Additional Materials supplement the disclosures made in the Proxy Statement, and should be read together with the Proxy Statement. To the
extent this information differs from or updates information contained in the Proxy Statement, these Definitive Additional Materials are more current. Any defined terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Proxy
Statement.
These supplemental disclosures to the Proxy Statement are dated December 7, 2012.
SUPPLEMENT TO PROXY STATEMENT
The Transactions Background of the OP Recapitalization and the Asset Sale
The first full paragraph on page 23 of the Proxy Statement contains disclosure regarding a meeting between the Independent Directors Committee and Stifel Nicolaus on May 22, 2012. That disclosure is
hereby supplemented to state that in discussing the fairness of the consideration to be received by the Unaffiliated Stockholders relative to the consideration that, based on the current proposed transaction structure, might be received or retained
by the holders of limited partnership interest, the Independent Directors Committee considered the fact that the Buyer was not interested in purchasing the Retained Properties and the estimated values of respective properties.
The ninth full paragraph on page 24 of the Proxy Statement is hereby supplemented to clarify that the discussions between Mr. Berg
and Tenants A and B related to Mr. Bergs proposal that Tenants A and B purchase their respective properties for our proposed price, the fact that Tenant A had indicated they would make a counter-proposal but had continually failed to do
so and the fact that Tenant B had engaged in numerous conversations with Mr. Berg but had not indicated a willingness to purchase their properties.
A new paragraph was added following the eleventh full paragraph on page 24 of the Proxy Statement to state that on July 25, 2012, Colliers provided the Property Appraisals to Mission West after
seeking approval from the Independent Directors Committee so that Colliers could ask questions of Messrs. Berg and Marino in relation thereto.
The first full paragraph on page 27 of the Proxy Statement is supplemented to clarify that Mr. Berg and Stifel Nicolaus discussed with the details of the bids from Company B, Company C and Company D
and the current value of these bids, which were considerations with respect to Stifel Nicolaus bid analysis.
2
The fourth full paragraph on page 27 of the Proxy Statement is supplemented to clarify that
in comparing the last proposals from each of the Finalists these proposals were adjusted to take into account the companys operations, as well as its dividends and outstanding debt balances since such bids were received.
The second full paragraph on page 28 of the Proxy Statement is supplemented to clarify that Stifel Nicolaus and Mr. Berg discuss a
variety of matters including price, the bidding process, their analysis of the bid from Company D as well as comparisons of the bids from Company B, Company C and Company D, the status of Mr. Bergs discussions with Tenants A and B, and
tax considerations with respect to the structure of the Transactions.

Stifel Nicolaus calculated a range of terminal values of $1.04 to $1.21 billion for us at
October 31, 2016 by applying a range of capitalization rates from 7.0% to 7.75% to the forward 12-month net operating income through October 31, 2017. The terminal value was derived from historical data for comparable sales from published
sources, discussions with management, and an evaluation of market data from various market data and brokerage services companies. The terminal capitalization rates applied were based on the assumption of a stabilized portfolio for the 12 month
period ended October 31, 2017. The projected annual cash flows and range of terminal values were then discounted to present values using a range of cost of capital discount rates from 9.5% to 11.5% reflecting a weighted average cost of capital
calculation using standard valuation techniques. The sum of the present value of future cash flows combined with the terminal value was then added to cash and cash equivalents, the present value of our notes receivable from property sales, land
values as concluded in the Property Appraisals, and our equity in unconsolidated joint ventures. From this amount, Stifel Nicolaus reduced the gross value by total debt outstanding pro forma for the period ended October 31, 2012 as provided by
our management and divided this figure by the fully diluted shares and LP Units outstanding. This analysis concluded a valuation range of $8.39 per share to $10.12 per share.
In third full paragraph on page 43 of the Proxy Statement is supplemented to clarify that Mission West believes that any additional financial advisory fee payable upon the closing the of the Transactions
will not exceed $500,000.
