SAN FRANCISCO-Bank of America NA will stay in Transamerica Pyramid at least through 2014 but will have a smaller presence in the building going forward. The bank inked a five-year renewal that commences in 2009 for low- and mid-rise space in the building. As part of the deal, it will give back three floors that is currently leases.Banc of America Securities uses the space for its banking business and trading floor and is the largest tenant in the landmark building. The predecessor to Banc of America Securities, Montgomery Securities, has been in the building for nearly two decades. The latter became the former following the 1998 acquisition of NationsBank, which had acquired Montgomery Securities in 1997, by BankAmerica.

David Churton, Mike Whittington and Jeff Criswell of Jones Lang LaSalle represented Bank of America in the Transamerica lease renewal. Sean Ohno of Lowe Enterprises and Dick Robinson of Cushman & Wakefield represented the landlord.
