Gyrodyne Closes Acquisition of Office Buildings
in Port Jefferson Professional Park
"NASDAQ:GYRO" - ST. JAMES, N.Y., June 28, 2007 - Gyrodyne Company of America,
Inc. announced today that it has closed its previously announced acquisition of
ten buildings in the Port Jefferson Professional Park in Port Jefferson Station,
New York. The buildings were acquired for an aggregate purchase price of
$8,850,000. The buildings, located at 1-6, 8, 9 and 11 Medical Drive and 5380
Nesconset Highway in Port Jefferson Station, are situated on 5.16 acres with
approximately 40,000 square feet of rentable space. The purchase price per
square foot is $ 221.25 and the aggregate monthly rent flow from the property is
currently $73,132.84. The property has a 97% occupancy rate. The Company
satisfied $5,551,191.38 of the purchase price by the assumption of the existing
mortgage debt on the property.
Stephen V. Maroney, President and Chief Executive Officer of Gyrodyne, stated
that "we are delighted to have closed this important acquisition as we continue
to implement our previously announced corporate strategy." The Port Jefferson
Professional Park benefits from a strong tenant base of medical practice firms

announced, the acquisition qualifies for tax deferral treatment under Section
1033 of the Internal Revenue Code.
