REALTY INCOME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2011

(unaudited)

1.	Management Statement

The consolidated financial statements of Realty Income Corporation ("Realty Income", the "Company", "we", "our" or "us") were prepared from our books and records without audit and include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present a fair statement of results for the interim period presented. Certain of the 2010 balances have been reclassified to conform to the 2011 presentation. Readers of this quarterly report should refer to our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010, which are included in our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as certain disclosures that would substantially duplicate those contained in the audited financial statements have not been included in this report.

At June 30, 2011, we owned 2,523 properties, located in 49 states, containing over 24.6 million leasable square feet, along with three properties owned by our wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary, Crest Net Lease, Inc., or Crest. Crest was created to buy and sell properties, primarily to individual investors who are involved in tax-deferred exchanges under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code.

2.	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Procedures and Recent Accounting Pronouncements

A. The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Realty Income, Crest, and other entities for which we make operating and financial decisions (i.e., control), after elimination of all material intercompany balances and transactions. All of Realty Income's subsidiaries are wholly-owned. We have no unconsolidated or off-balance sheet investments in variable interest entities.

B. We have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the Code. We believe we have qualified and continue to qualify as a REIT. Under the REIT operating structure, we are permitted to deduct distributions paid to our stockholders and generally will not be required to pay federal corporate income taxes on such income. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, except for the federal income taxes of Crest, which are included in discontinued operations. The income taxes recorded on our consolidated statements of income represent amounts paid by Realty Income for city and state income and franchise taxes.

C. We recognize an allowance for doubtful accounts relating to accounts receivable for amounts deemed uncollectible. We consider tenant specific issues, such as financial stability and ability to pay rent, when determining collectability of accounts receivable and appropriate allowances to record. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $1.1 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

H. Goodwill is tested for impairment during the second quarter of each year as well as when events or circumstances occur indicating that our goodwill might be impaired. During our test for impairment of goodwill during the second quarters of 2011 and 2010, we determined that the estimated fair values of our reporting units exceeded their carrying values. We did not record any impairment on our existing goodwill in 2011 or 2010.

I. Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs . Effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2011, ASU No. 2011-04 clarifies how a principal market is determined, addresses the fair value measurement of instruments with offsetting market or counterparty credit risks and the concept of valuation premise and highest and best use, extends the prohibition on blockage factors to all three levels of the fair value hierarchy, and requires additional disclosures. ASU No. 2011-04 will apply only to our disclosures in note 8 related to the fair value of assets and liabilities and is not expected to have a significant impact on our footnote disclosures.

3. Investments in Real Estate

We acquire the land, buildings and improvements that are necessary for the successful operations of retail and other commercial enterprises.

A. During the first six months of 2011, we invested $364.2 million in 36 new properties, and properties under development, with an initial weighted average contractual lease rate of 7.6%. These 36 new properties, and properties under development, are located in 19 states, contain over 3.4 million leasable square feet, and are 100% leased with an average lease term of 15.5 years. The initial weighted average contractual lease rate is computed by dividing the estimated aggregate base rent for the first year of each lease by the estimated total cost of the properties. Acquisition transaction costs of $913,000 were recorded to "general and administrative" expense on our consolidated statement of income, for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

Table of contents

In March 2011, we announced the signing of definitive purchase agreements to acquire 33 single-tenant retail, distribution, office and manufacturing properties for approximately $544 million. Included in the $364.2 million invested, during the first six months of 2011, is $336.2 million invested in 22 of the 33 properties. In aggregate, the 33 properties to be acquired, in connection with this previously announced transaction, will be located in 17 different states and consist of approximately 3.8 million square feet of leasable space. The majority of the lease revenue from these single-tenant properties will be generated from investment grade tenants, or their operating subsidiaries, in 11 different industries. The average remaining lease term of these properties will be over 11 years and all of the properties have in-place leases.

In comparison, during the first six months of 2010, we invested $289.0 million in 21 new properties with an initial weighted average contractual lease rate of 7.6%. These 21 properties are located in seven states, contain over 501,000 leasable square feet, and are 100% leased with an average lease term of 19.2 years. Acquisition transaction costs of $88,000 were recorded to "general and administrative" expense on our consolidated statement of income, for the six months ended June 30, 2010.

During the first six months of 2011, we capitalized costs of $1.9 million on existing properties in our portfolio, consisting of $649,000 for re-leasing costs and $1.2 million for building and tenant improvements. In comparison, during the first six months of 2010, we capitalized costs of $1.6 million on existing properties in our portfolio, consisting of $636,000 for re-leasing costs and $966,000 for building and tenant improvements.

B. During the first six months of 2011 and 2010, Crest did not invest in any new properties. Crest’s property inventory, which is classified as held for investment, consisted of three properties with a net book value of $2.9 million at June 30, 2011 and $3.0 million at December 31, 2010.

C. Of the $364.2 million invested by us in the first six months of 2011, approximately $336.2 million was used to acquire 22 properties with existing leases. Associated with these 22 properties, we recorded $64.5 million as the intangible value of the in-place leases, $18.6 million as the intangible value of above-market leases and $1.9 million as the intangible value of below-market leases. The value of the in-place and above-market leases are recorded to "other assets" on our consolidated balance sheet, and the value of the below-market leases are recorded to "other liabilities" on our consolidated balance sheet. The value of the in-place leases is amortized as "depreciation and amortization" expense, while the value of the above-market and below-market leases is amortized as "rental" revenue on our consolidated statements of income. All of these amounts are amortized over the life of the respective leases.

4. Credit Facility

In December 2010, we entered into a $425 million revolving, unsecured credit facility that replaced our previous $355 million acquisition credit facility that was scheduled to expire in May 2011. The initial term of the credit facility expires in March 2014 and includes two, one-year extension options. Under this credit facility, our investment grade credit ratings provide for financing at the London Interbank Offered Rate, commonly referred to as LIBOR, plus 185 basis points with a facility commitment fee of 35 basis points, for all-in drawn pricing of 220 basis points over LIBOR. The borrowing rate is not subject to an interest rate floor or ceiling. We also have other interest rate options available to us. Our credit facility is unsecured and, accordingly, we have not pledged any assets as collateral for this obligation.

As a result of entering into our current credit facility, we incurred credit facility origination costs of $4.2 million that were classified as part of "other assets" on our consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2010. At June 30, 2011, the balance of these credit facility origination costs was $3.5 million, which is being amortized over the remaining term of the credit facility.

Table of contents

The average borrowing rate on our credit facility during the first six months of 2011 was 2.1% and, during the first six months of 2010, was 1.3%. Our borrowing rate at June 30, 2011 was 2.0%, and at June 30, 2010 was 1.3%. Our current and prior credit facilities are subject to various leverage and interest coverage ratio limitations. We are and have been in compliance with these covenants.

5. Notes Payable

General

Our senior unsecured notes consist of the following at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, sorted by maturity date (dollars in millions):

	June 30, 2011		December 31, 2010
5.375% notes, issued in March 2003 and due in March 2013	$	100	$	100
5.5% notes, issued in November 2003 and due in November 2015		150		150
5.95% notes, issued in September 2006 and due in September 2016		275		275
5.375% notes, issued in September 2005 and due in September 2017		175		175
6.75% notes, issued in September 2007 and due in August 2019		550		550
5.75% notes, issued in June 2010 and due in January 2021		250		250
5.875% bonds, $100 issued in March 2005 and $150 issued in June 2011, both due in March 2035		250		100
	$	1,750	$	1,600

B.	Re-opening of Unsecured Bonds due 2035

In June 2011, we re-opened our 5.875% senior unsecured bonds due 2035, or the 2035 Bonds, and issued $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount of these 2035 Bonds. The price to the investor for the 2035 Bonds was 94.578% of the principal amount for an effective yield of 6.318%. The 2035 Bonds constituted an additional issuance of, and a single series with, the $100 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior unsecured bonds that we issued in March 2005. The net proceeds of approximately $140.1 million will be used to fund a portion of our previously announced property acquisitions aggregating approximately $544 million.

C.	Note Issuance

In June 2010, we issued $250.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.75% senior unsecured notes due January 2021, or the 2021 Notes. The price to the investor for the 2021 Notes was 99.404% of the principal amount for an effective yield of 5.826%. The net proceeds of approximately $246.3 million from this offering were used to repay borrowings under our acquisition credit facility, which were incurred to finance the acquisition of our properties under triple-net lease agreements with Diageo Chateau & Estates Wine Company and guaranteed by Diageo plc.

6.	Mortgages Payable

As part of the $364.2 million invested in new properties during the first six months of 2011, we assumed $58.6 million of mortgages payable to third-party lenders. These mortgages are secured by the properties on which the debt was placed and are non-recourse. We expect to pay off the mortgages as soon as prepayment penalties and costs make it economically feasible to do so. We intend to continue our policy of primarily identifying property acquisitions that are free from mortgage indebtedness.

In aggregate, net premiums totaling $957,000 were recorded upon assumption of the mortgages at the time of the respective property acquisition to account for above-market interest rates. Amortization of these net premiums is recorded as a reduction to interest expense over the remaining term of the respective notes, using a method that approximates the effective-interest method. These mortgages contain customary covenants, such as limiting our ability to further mortgage each applicable property or to discontinue insurance coverage, without the prior consent of the lender.

Table of contents

As a result of assuming these mortgages payable, we incurred deferred financing costs of $592,000 that were classified as part of "other assets" on our consolidated balance sheet at June, 30, 2011, and are being amortized over the remaining term of the mortgages.

The following is a summary of our mortgages payable as of June 30, 2011 (principal balance, unamortized premiums (discounts) and mortgage payable balances in thousands):

Tenant Name	Stated Interest Rate (1)			Effective Interest Rate			Maturity Date (2)	Principal Balance (2)		Unamortized Premium (Discount)			Mortgage Payable Balance
Aviall Services, Inc. (3)		6.25	%		4.95	%	12/1/13	$	12,612	$	458		$	13,070
Aviall Services, Inc. (3)		6.25	%		4.81	%	9/1/14		11,748		377			12,125
T-Mobile USA, Inc.		5.89	%		5.14	%	5/6/14		10,664		201			10,865
MeadWestvaco Corporation		4.69	%		4.85	%	6/10/15		23,625		(79	)		23,546
								$	58,649	$	957		$	59,606

(1) With the exception of the MeadWestvaco Corporation mortgage, the mortgages are at fixed interest rates. The MeadWestvaco Corporation mortgage is at a floating variable interest rate calculated as the sum of the current 1 month LIBOR plus 4.50%, not to exceed an all-in interest rate of 5.5%, based on an interest rate novation agreement entered in connection with this mortgage.

(2) The mortgages generally require monthly payments, with a principal payment due at maturity.

(3) There are two mortgages associated with one property occupied by Aviall Services, Inc.

7.	Issuance of Common Stock

In March 2011, we issued 8,625,000 shares of common stock at a price of $34.81 per share. After underwriting discounts and other offering costs of approximately $14.6 million, the net proceeds of approximately $285.6 million were used to fund a substantial portion of the previously announced property acquisitions aggregating approximately $544 million.

8.	Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The disclosure for assets and liabilities measured at fair value requires allocation to a three-level valuation hierarchy. This valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date. Categorization within this hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

We believe that the carrying values reflected in our consolidated balance sheets reasonably approximate the fair values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, escrow deposits, and all liabilities, due to their short-term nature, except for our notes receivable issued in connection with property sales and our senior notes payable, which are disclosed below (dollars in millions). Our mortgages payable, that were assumed during the second quarter of 2011, were recorded at their estimated fair values, which reflects the amounts reported on our consolidated balance sheet.

	Carrying value per		Estimated
At June 30, 2011	balance sheet		fair value
Notes receivable issued in connection with Crest property sales	$	22.0	$	23.0
Notes payable	$	1,750.0	$	1,877.6

	Carrying value per		Estimated
At December 31, 2010	balance sheet		fair value
Notes receivable issued in connection with Crest property sales	$	22.1	$	23.2
Notes payable	$	1,600.0	$	1,707.1

Table of contents

The estimated fair value of our notes receivable, issued in connection with property sales, has been calculated by discounting the future cash flows using an interest rate based upon the current 5-year or 7-year Treasury yield curve, plus an applicable credit-adjusted spread. The notes receivable were issued in connection with the sale of three Crest properties. Payments to us on these notes receivable are current and no allowance for doubtful accounts has been recorded for them.

The estimated fair value of our senior notes payable is based upon indicative market prices and recent trading activity of our notes payable.

9. Gain on Sales of Investment Properties

During the second quarter of 2011, we sold six investment properties for $3.3 million, which resulted in a gain of $1.1 million. During the first six months of 2011, we sold nine investment properties for $4.4 million, which resulted in a gain of $1.2 million. The results of operations for these properties have been reclassified as discontinued operations. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2011, we sold excess land from three properties for $675,000, which resulted in a gain of $155,000. This gain is included in "other revenue" on our consolidated statement of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, because this excess land was associated with properties that continue to be owned as part of our core operations.

In comparison, during the second quarter of 2010, we sold seven investment properties and excess land from one property for a total of $6.0 million, which resulted in a gain of $1.7 million. During the first six months of 2010, we sold ten investment properties and excess land from one property for $7.8 million, which resulted in a gain of $2.4 million. The results of operations for these properties have been reclassified as discontinued operations.

During the first six months of 2011 and 2010, Crest did not sell any properties.

10. Discontinued Operations

We review long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. An impairment is recorded if estimated future operating cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) plus estimated disposition proceeds (undiscounted) are less than the current book value of the property. Key factors that we use in this analysis include: projected rental rates, capital expenditures and property sales capitalization rates. Additionally, a property classified as held for sale is carried at the lower of carrying cost or estimated fair value, less estimated cost to sell.

For the first six months of 2011, provisions for impairment of $210,000 were recorded by Realty Income on three properties, one of which was sold in March and two of which are classified as held for sale at June 30, 2011. For the first six months of 2010, provisions for impairment of $87,000 were recorded by Realty Income on two properties, both of which were sold in the second quarter of 2010. For the first six months of 2011 and 2010, no provisions for impairment were recorded by Crest.

Operations from ten investment properties classified as held for sale at June 30, 2011, plus properties sold in 2011 and 2010 are reported as discontinued operations. Their respective results of operations have been reclassified as "income from discontinued operations, real estate held for investment" on our consolidated statements of income. We do not depreciate properties that are classified as held for sale.

Table of contents

No debt was assumed by buyers of our investment properties, or repaid as a result of our investment property sales, and we do not allocate interest expense to discontinued operations related to real estate held for investment. We allocate interest expense related to borrowings specifically attributable to Crest. The interest expense amounts allocated to Crest are included in "income from discontinued operations, real estate acquired for resale by Crest" on our consolidated statements of income.

The following is a summary of Crest's "income from discontinued operations, real estate acquired for resale by Crest" on our consolidated statements of income (dollars in thousands):

At June 30, 2011, a distribution of $0.144875 per common share was payable and was paid in July 2011.

B. Preferred Stock

In 2004, we issued 5.1 million shares of 7.375% Monthly Income Class D cumulative redeemable preferred stock. In May 2009, the Class D preferred shares became redeemable, at our option, for $25 per share. During each of the first six months of 2011 and 2010, we paid six monthly dividends to holders of our Class D preferred stock totaling $0.9218754 per share, or $4.7 million, and at June 30, 2011, a monthly dividend of $0.1536459 per share was payable and was paid in July 2011.

In 2006, we issued 8.8 million shares of 6.75% Monthly Income Class E cumulative redeemable preferred stock. Beginning December 7, 2011, the Class E preferred shares are redeemable, at our option, for $25 per share. During each of the first six months of 2011 and 2010, we paid six monthly dividends to holders of our Class E preferred stock totaling $0.84375 per share, or $7.4 million, and at June 30, 2011, a monthly dividend of $0.140625 per share was payable and was paid in July 2011.

We are current in our obligations to pay dividends on our Class D and Class E preferred stock.

12. Net Income Per Common Share

Basic net income per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common stockholders for the period by the weighted average number of common shares that would have been outstanding assuming the issuance of common shares for all potentially dilutive common shares outstanding during the reporting period.

Table of contents

The following is a reconciliation of the denominator of the basic net income per common share computation to the denominator of the diluted net income per common share computation:

	Three months ended		Six months ended
	June 30, 2011	June 30, 2010	June 30, 2011	June 30, 2010
Weighted average shares used for the basic net income per share computation	125,999,323	103,612,454	122,547,027	103,653,250
Incremental shares from share-based compensation	202,724	153,374	144,391	125,359
Adjusted weighted average shares used for diluted net income per share computation	126,202,047	103,765,828	122,691,418	103,778,609
Unvested shares from share-based compensation that were anti-dilutive	12,600	87,000	12,600	87,200

13.	Supplemental Disclosures of Cash Flow Information

Interest paid in the first six months of 2011 was $49.0 million and, in the first six months of 2010, was $41.3 million.

Interest capitalized to properties under development in the first six months of 2011 was $173,000 and, in the first six months of 2010, was $3,000.

Income taxes paid by Realty Income and Crest in the first six months of 2011 was $946,000 and, in the first six months of 2010, was $872,000.

The following non-cash investing and financing activities are included in the accompanying consolidated financial statements:

A. Share-based compensation expense for the first six months of 2011 was $4.3 million and for the first six months of 2010 was $3.5 million.

B. See note 10 for a discussion of impairments recorded by Realty Income in discontinued operations, for the first six months of 2011 and 2010.

C. In the first six months of 2010, we recorded a $799,000 receivable for the sale of an investment property as a result of an eminent domain action and recorded a $600,000 receivable for the sale of excess land from a property held for sale. In June 2011, we recorded an additional $95,000 receivable for the sale of excess land, on this property held for sale, to increase the total receivable to $695,000. These receivables are included in "other assets" on our consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

D. As part of the acquisition of three properties during the first six months of 2011, we assumed $58.6 million of mortgages payable to third-party lenders and recorded $957,000 of net premiums. See note 6 for a discussion of these mortgages.

E. Accrued costs on properties under development resulted in an increase in buildings and improvements and accounts payable of $3.6 million, at June 30, 2011.

14. Segment Information

We evaluate performance and make resource allocation decisions on an industry by industry basis. For financial reporting purposes, we have grouped our tenants into 38 industry and activity segments (including properties owned by Crest that are grouped together as a segment). All of the properties are incorporated into one of the applicable segments. Because almost all of our leases require the tenant to pay operating expenses, revenue is the only component of segment profit and loss we measure.

Table of contents

The following tables set forth certain information regarding the properties owned by us, classified according to the business of the respective tenants, as of June 30, 2011 (dollars in thousands):

15. Common Stock Incentive Plan

In 2003, our Board of Directors adopted, and stockholders approved, the 2003 Incentive Award Plan of Realty Income Corporation, or the Stock Plan, to enable us to attract and retain the services of directors, employees and consultants, considered essential to our long-term success. The Stock Plan offers our directors, employees and consultants an opportunity to own stock in Realty Income and/or rights that will reflect our growth, development and financial success. The Stock Plan was amended and restated by our Board of Directors in February 2006 and in May 2007.

The amount of share-based compensation costs recognized in "general and administrative" expense on our consolidated statements of income during the second quarter of 2011 was $2.2 million, during the second quarter of 2010 was $1.7 million, during the first six months of 2011 was $4.3 million and during the first six months of 2010 was $3.5 million.

The following table summarizes our common stock grant activity under our Stock Plan. Our common stock grants vest over periods ranging from immediately to 10 years.

	For the six months ended June 30, 2011					For the year ended December 31, 2010
	Number of shares			Weighted average price (1)		Number of shares			Weighted average price (1)
Outstanding nonvested shares, beginning of year		924,294		$	19.69		853,234		$	19.14
Shares granted		227,014			34.00		278,200			28.99

Shares forfeited		(348	)		31.06		(987	)		26.03
Outstanding nonvested shares, end of each period		906,186		$	23.79		924,294		$	19.69

(1) Grant date fair value.

During the first six months of 2011, we issued 227,014 shares of common stock under our Stock Plan. These shares vest over the following service periods: 25,158 vested immediately, 5,000 vest over a service period of one year, 70,400 vest over a service period of three years and 126,456 vest over a service period of five years.

As of June 30, 2011, the remaining unamortized share-based compensation expense totaled $21.6 million, which is being amortized on a straight-line basis over the service period of each applicable award.

Due to a historically low turnover rate, we do not estimate a forfeiture rate for our nonvested shares. Accordingly, unexpected forfeitures will lower share-based compensation expense during the applicable period. Under the terms of our Stock Plan, we pay non-refundable dividends to the holders of our nonvested shares. Applicable accounting guidance requires that the dividends paid to holders of these nonvested shares be charged as compensation expense to the extent that they relate to nonvested shares that do not or are not expected to vest. However, since we do not estimate forfeitures given our historical trends, we did not record any amount to compensation expense related to dividends paid in 2011 or 2010.

Table of contents

As of June 30, 2011, there were no remaining stock options outstanding. During the first six months of 2011, there were 2,454 stock options exercised, at an exercise price of $14.70, and there were no stock option forfeitures. Stock options, none of which were granted after January 1, 2002, were granted with an exercise price equal to the underlying stock’s fair market value at the date of grant.

16. Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan

In March 2011, we established a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan, or The Plan, to provide our common stockholders, as well as new investors, with a convenient and economical method to purchase our common stock and/or reinvest their distributions. The Plan authorizes up to 6,000,000 common shares to be issued. Through June 30, 2011, we issued 21,562 shares and received net proceeds of approximately $716,000 under The Plan.

17. Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of business, we are party to various legal actions which we believe are routine in nature and incidental to the operation of our business. We believe that the outcome of the proceedings will not have a material adverse effect upon our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

At June 30, 2011, we have contingent payments of $924,000 for tenant improvements and leasing costs. In addition, we have committed $12.4 million under construction contracts, which is expected to be paid in the next twelve months.

18. Subsequent Events

In July 2011, we declared the following dividends, which will be paid in August 2011:

-	$0.144875 per share to our common stockholders;

-	$0.1536459 per share to our Class D preferred stockholders; and

-	$0.140625 per share to our Class E preferred stockholders.

THE COMPANY

Realty Income Corporation, The Monthly Dividend Company ® , is a Maryland corporation organized to operate as an equity real estate investment trust, or REIT. Our primary business objective is to generate dependable monthly cash distributions from a consistent and predictable level of funds from operations, or FFO, per share. Our monthly distributions are supported by the cash flow from our portfolio of properties leased to retail and other commercial enterprises. We have in-house acquisition, leasing, legal, credit research, real estate research, portfolio management, and capital markets expertise. Over the past 42 years, Realty Income and its predecessors have been acquiring and owning freestanding retail and other properties that generate rental revenue under long-term lease agreements (primarily 15 to 20 years).

In addition, we seek to increase distributions to stockholders and FFO per share through both active portfolio management and the acquisition of additional properties.

Generally, our portfolio management efforts seek to include:

●	Contractual rent increases on existing leases;

●	Rent increases at the termination of existing leases, when market conditions permit; and

●	The active management of our property portfolio, including re-leasing vacant properties, and selectively selling properties, thereby mitigating our exposure to certain tenants and markets.

In acquiring additional properties, our strategy is primarily to acquire properties that are:

●	Freestanding, single-tenant locations;

●	Leased to regional and national commercial enterprises; and

●	Leased under long-term, net-lease agreements.

At June 30, 2011, we owned a diversified portfolio:

●	Of 2,523 properties;

●	With an occupancy rate of 97.3%, or 2,455 properties leased and only 68 properties available for lease;

●	Leased to 131 different retail and other commercial enterprises doing business in 37 separate industries;

●	Located in 49 states;

●	With over 24.6 million square feet of leasable space; and

●	With an average leasable space per property of approximately 9,800 square feet.

Of the 2,523 properties in the portfolio, 2,507, or 99.4%, are single-tenant properties, and the remaining 16 are multi-tenant properties. At June 30, 2011, of the 2,507 single-tenant properties, 2,440 were leased with a weighted average remaining lease term (excluding rights to extend a lease at the option of the tenant) of approximately 11.1 years.

In addition, at June 30, 2011, our wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary, Crest Net Lease, Inc., or Crest, had an inventory of three properties, which are classified as held for investment. In addition to the three properties, Crest also holds notes receivable of $22.0 million at June 30, 2011.

We typically acquire properties under long-term leases with regional and national retailers and other commercial enterprises. Our acquisition and investment activities generally focus on businesses providing goods and services that satisfy basic consumer and business needs.

Table of contents

In general, our net-lease agreements:

●	Are for initial terms of 15 to 20 years;

●	Require the tenant to pay minimum monthly rent and property operating expenses (taxes, insurance, and maintenance); and

●	Provide for future rent increases based on increases in the consumer price index (typically subject to ceilings), additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenants' gross sales above a specified level, or fixed increases.

Investment Philosophy

We believe that owning an actively managed, diversified portfolio of commercial properties under long-term, net leases produces consistent and predictable income. Net leases typically require the tenant to be responsible for monthly rent and property operating expenses including property taxes, insurance, and maintenance. In addition, tenants are typically subject to future rent increases based on increases in the consumer price index (typically subject to ceilings), additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenants' gross sales above a specified level, or fixed increases. We believe that a portfolio of properties under long-term leases, coupled with the tenant's responsibility for property expenses, generally produces a more predictable income stream than many other types of real estate portfolios, while continuing to offer the potential for growth in rental income.

Credit Strategy

We primarily provide sale-leaseback financing to less than investment grade tenants. We typically acquire and lease back properties to regional and national commercial enterprises and believe that within this market we can achieve an attractive risk-adjusted return. Since 1970, our overall weighted average occupancy rate at the end of each year has been 98.2%, and our occupancy rate at the end of each year has never been below 96%.

Acquisition Strategy

We seek to invest in industries in which several, well-organized, regional and national retailers and other commercial enterprises are capturing market share through service, quality control, economies of scale, strong consumer brands, advertising, and the selection of prime locations. We execute our acquisition strategy by acting as a source of capital to regional and national commercial enterprises by acquiring and leasing back their real estate locations. We undertake thorough research and analysis to identify what we consider to be appropriate industries, tenants, and property locations for investment. Our research expertise is instrumental to uncovering net-lease opportunities in markets where our real estate financing program adds value. In selecting real estate for potential investment, we generally seek to acquire properties that have the following characteristics:

●	Freestanding, commercially-zoned property with a single tenant;

●	Properties that are important locations for regional and national commercial enterprises;

●	Properties that we deem to be profitable for the tenants and/or can generally be characterized as important to the operations of the company’s business;

●	Properties that are located within attractive demographic areas, relative to the business of our tenants, with high visibility and easy access to major thoroughfares; and

●	Properties that can be purchased with the simultaneous execution or assumption of long-term, net-lease agreements, offering both current income and the potential for rent increases.

Portfolio Management Strategy

The active management of the property portfolio is an essential component of our long-term strategy. We continually monitor our portfolio for any changes that could affect the performance of the industries, tenants, and locations in which we have invested. We also regularly analyze our portfolio with a view toward optimizing its returns and enhancing our credit quality.

Table of contents

Our executives regularly review and analyze:

●	The performance of the various industries of our tenants; and

●	The operation, management, business planning, and financial condition of our tenants.

We have an active portfolio management program that incorporates the sale of assets when we believe the reinvestment of the sale proceeds will:

●	Generate higher returns;

●	Enhance the credit quality of our real estate portfolio;

●	Extend our average remaining lease term; or

●	Decrease tenant or industry concentration.

At June 30, 2011, we classified real estate with a carrying amount of $6.4 million as held for sale on our balance sheet. Additionally, we anticipate selling investment properties from our portfolio that have not yet been specifically identified, from which we anticipate receiving between $10 million and $35 million in proceeds during the next 12 months. We intend to invest these proceeds into new property acquisitions, if there are attractive opportunities available. However, we cannot guarantee that we will sell properties during the next 12 months or be able to invest the proceeds from the sales of any properties in new properties.

Impact of Real Estate and Credit Markets

In the commercial real estate market, property prices generally continue to fluctuate. Likewise, the U.S. credit markets have experienced significant price volatility, dislocations, and liquidity disruptions, which sometimes impact our access to and cost of capital. We continue to monitor the commercial real estate and U.S. credit markets carefully and, if required, will make decisions to adjust our business strategy accordingly. See our discussion of "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Increases in Monthly Distributions to Common Stockholders

We continue our 42-year policy of paying distributions monthly. Monthly distributions per share increased in April 2011 by $0.0003125 to $0.1445625 and in July 2011 by $0.0003125 to $0.144875. The increase in July 2011 was our 55 th consecutive quarterly increase and the 62 nd increase in the amount of our dividend since our listing on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, in 1994. In the first six months of 2011, we paid three monthly cash distributions per share in the amount of $0.14425 and three in the amount of $0.1445625, totaling $0.8664375. In June 2011 and July 2011, we declared distributions of $0.144875 per share, which were paid in July 2011 and will be paid in August 2011, respectively.

The monthly distribution of $0.144875 per share represents a current annualized distribution of $1.7385 per share, and an annualized distribution yield of approximately 5.2% based on the last reported sale price of our common stock on the NYSE of $33.49 on June 30, 2011. Although we expect to continue our policy of paying monthly distributions, we cannot guarantee that we will maintain our current level of distributions, that we will continue our pattern of increasing distributions per share, or what our actual distribution yield will be in any future period.

Acquisitions during the Second Quarter of 2011

During the second quarter of 2011, Realty Income invested $213.5 million in 10 new properties and properties under development, with an initial weighted average contractual lease rate of 7.5%. These 10 new properties and properties under development are located in nine states, contain over 2.1 million leasable square feet, and are 100% leased with an average lease term of 12.9 years.

Table of contents

Acquisitions during the First Six Months of 2011

During the first six months of 2011, Realty Income invested $364.2 million in 36 new properties and properties under development, with an initial weighted average contractual lease rate of 7.6%. These 36 new properties and properties under development are located in 19 states, contain over 3.4 million leasable square feet, and are 100% leased with an average lease term of 15.5 years. There were no acquisitions by Crest in the first six months of 2011.

The initial weighted average contractual lease rate is computed as estimated contractual net operating income (in a net-leased property that is equal to the aggregate base rent or, in the case of properties under development, the estimated aggregate base rent under the lease) for the first year of each lease, divided by the estimated total cost of the properties. Since it is possible that a tenant could default on the payment of contractual rent, we cannot assure you that the actual return on the funds invested will remain at the percentages listed above.

In March 2011, we announced the signing of definitive purchase agreements to acquire 33 single-tenant, retail, distribution, office and manufacturing properties for approximately $544 million. Included in the $364.2 million invested, during the first six months of 2011, is $336.2 million invested in 22 of the 33 properties. We anticipate that the remainder of the properties in this portfolio should close during the next two months. In aggregate, the 33 properties to be acquired, in connection with this previously announced transaction, will be located in 17 different states and consist of approximately 3.8 million square feet of leasable space. The majority of the lease revenue from these single-tenant properties will be generated from investment grade tenants, or their operating subsidiaries, in 11 different industries. The average remaining lease term of these properties will be over 11 years and all of the properties have in-place leases.

Portfolio Discussion

Leasing Results

At June 30, 2011, we had 68 properties available for lease out of 2,523 properties in our portfolio, which represents a 97.3% occupancy rate. Since December 31, 2010, when we reported 84 properties available for lease and a 96.6% occupancy rate, we:

●	Leased 20 properties;

●	Sold eight properties available for lease; and

●	Have 12 new properties available for lease.

In addition, during the first six months of 2011, we leased six properties to new tenants concurrent with the expiration of the prior leases. At June 30, 2011, our average annualized rental revenue per square foot was approximately $16.87.

During the first six months of 2011, 44 properties with expiring leases were leased to either existing or new tenants. The rent on these leases was $4.2 million, as compared to the previous rent charged on these same properties of $4.5 million.

Investments in Existing Properties

In the second quarter of 2011, we capitalized costs of $915,000 on existing properties in our portfolio, consisting of $380,000 for re-leasing costs and $535,000 for building and tenant improvements.

In the first six months of 2011, we capitalized costs of $1.9 million on existing properties in our portfolio, consisting of $649,000 for re-leasing costs and $1.2 million for building and tenant improvements.

As part of our re-leasing costs, we pay leasing commissions and sometimes provide tenant rent concessions. Leasing commissions are paid based on the commercial real estate industry standard and any rent concessions provided are minimal. We do not consider the collective impact of the leasing commissions or tenant rent concessions to be material to our financial position or results of operations.

Table of contents

The majority of our building and tenant improvements are related to roof repairs, HVAC improvements, and parking lot resurfacing and replacements. It is not customary for us to offer significant tenant improvements on our properties as tenant incentives. The amounts of our capital expenditures can vary significantly, depending on the market and the willingness of tenants to pay higher rents over the terms of the leases.

Re-opening of Unsecured Bonds due 2035

Issuance of Common Stock

In March 2011, we issued 8,625,000 shares of common stock at a price of $34.81 per share. After underwriting discounts and offering costs of $14.6 million, the net proceeds of approximately $285.6 million were used to fund a substantial portion of the previously announced property acquisitions aggregating approximately $544 million.

Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan

In March 2011, we established a Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan, or The Plan, to provide our common shareholders, as well as new investors, with a convenient and economical method to purchase our common stock and/or reinvest their distributions. The Plan authorizes up to 6,000,000 common shares to be issued. Through June 30, 2011, we issued 21,562 shares and received net proceeds of approximately $716,000 under The Plan.

Net Income Available to Common Stockholders

Net income available to common stockholders was $33.2 million in the second quarter of 2011, versus $25.0 million in the second quarter of 2010, an increase of $8.2 million. On a diluted per common share basis, net income was $0.26 in the second quarter of 2011, compared to $0.24 in the second quarter of 2010.

Net income available to common stockholders was $63.1 million in the first six months of 2011, versus $49.1 million in the same period of 2010, an increase of $14.0 million. On a diluted per common share basis, net income was $0.51 in the first six months of 2011, compared to $0.47 in the first six months of 2010.

The calculation to determine net income available to common stockholders includes gains from the sale of properties. The amount of gains varies from period to period based on the timing of property sales and can significantly impact net income available to common stockholders.

The gain from the sale of properties and excess land during the second quarter of 2011 was $1.3 million, as compared to $1.7 million during the second quarter of 2010. The gain from the sale of properties and excess land during the first six months of 2011 was $1.4 million, as compared to $2.4 million during the first six months of 2010.

Funds from Operations Available to Common Stockholders (FFO)

In the second quarter of 2011, our FFO increased by $14.1 million, or 30.1%, to $60.9 million, versus $46.8 million in the second quarter of 2010. On a diluted per common share basis, FFO was $0.48 in the second quarter of 2011, compared to $0.45 in the second quarter of 2010, an increase of $0.03, or 6.7%.

Table of contents

In the first six months of 2011, our FFO increased by $24.1 million, or 25.8%, to $117.5 million, versus $93.4 million in the first six months of 2010. On a diluted per common share basis, FFO was $0.96 in the first six months of 2011, compared to $0.90 in the first six months of 2010, an increase of $0.06, or 6.7%.

See our discussion of FFO later in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," which includes a reconciliation of net income available to common stockholders to FFO.

Adjusted Funds from Operations Available to Common Stockholders (AFFO)

In the second quarter of 2011, our AFFO increased by $14.7 million, or 30.8%, to $62.4 million, versus $47.7 million in the second quarter of 2010. On a diluted per common share basis, AFFO was $0.49 in the second quarter of 2011 and $0.46 in the second quarter of 2010, an increase of $0.03, or 6.5%.

In the first six months of 2011, our AFFO increased by $25.3 million, or 26.5%, to $120.6 million, versus $95.3 million in the first six months of 2010. On a diluted per common share basis, AFFO was $0.98 in the first six months of 2011 and $0.92 in the first six months of 2010, an increase of $0.06, or 6.5%.

See our discussion of AFFO later in this "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," which includes a reconciliation of net income available to common stockholders to FFO and AFFO.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Capital Philosophy

Historically, we have met our long-term capital needs by issuing common stock, preferred stock and long-term unsecured notes and bonds. Over the long term, we believe that common stock should be the majority of our capital structure. However, we may issue additional preferred stock or debt securities from time to time. We may issue common stock when we believe that our share price is at a level that allows for the proceeds of any offering to be accretively invested into additional properties. In addition, we may issue common stock to permanently finance properties that were financed by our credit facility or debt securities. However, we cannot assure you that we will have access to the capital markets at times and at terms that are acceptable to us.

Our primary cash obligations, for the current year and subsequent years, are included in the “Table of Obligations,” which is presented later in this section. We expect to fund our operating expenses and other short-term liquidity requirements, including property acquisitions and development costs, payment of principal and interest on our outstanding indebtedness, property improvements, re-leasing costs and cash distributions to common and preferred stockholders, primarily through cash provided by operating activities, borrowing on our $425 million credit facility, and from time-to-time through public securities offerings.

Conservative Capital Structure

We believe that our stockholders are best served by a conservative capital structure. Therefore, we seek to maintain a conservative debt level on our balance sheet and solid interest and fixed charge coverage ratios. At June 30, 2011, our total outstanding borrowings of senior unsecured notes and mortgages payable were $1.81 billion, or approximately 28.2% of our total market capitalization of $6.41 billion. There were no outstanding borrowings on our credit facility at June 30, 2011.

We define our total market capitalization at June 30, 2011 as the sum of:

●	Shares of our common stock outstanding of 126,865,242 multiplied by the last reported sales price of our common stock on the NYSE of $33.49 per share on June 30, 2011, or $4.25 billion;

●	Aggregate liquidation value (par value of $25 per share) of the Class D preferred stock of $127.5 million;

Table of contents

●	Aggregate liquidation value (par value of $25 per share) of the Class E preferred stock of $220 million;

●	Outstanding mortgages payable of $59.6 million; and

●	Outstanding senior unsecured notes and bonds of $1.75 billion.

Mortgage Debt

As of June 30, 2011, we have $58.6 million of mortgages payable that were assumed during the second quarter of 2011, in connection with our previously announced acquisition of 33 single-tenant, retail, distribution, office and manufacturing properties. In aggregate, net premiums totaling $957,000 were recorded upon assumption of the mortgages payable at the time of the respective property acquisition to account for above-market interest rates. These mortgages are secured by the properties on which the debt was placed and are non-recourse. We expect to pay off the mortgages payable as soon as prepayment penalties and costs make it economically feasible to do so. We intend to continue our policy of primarily identifying property acquisitions that are free from mortgage indebtedness.

$425 Million Acquisition Credit Facility

In December 2010, we entered into a $425 million revolving, unsecured credit facility that replaced our previous $355 million acquisition credit facility that was scheduled to expire in May 2011. The initial term of the credit facility expires in March 2014 and includes two, one-year extension options. Under the new credit facility, our investment grade credit ratings provide for financing at the London Interbank Offered Rate, commonly referred to as LIBOR, plus 185 basis points with a facility commitment fee of 35 basis points, for all-in drawn pricing of 220 basis points over LIBOR. The borrowing rate is not subject to an interest rate floor or ceiling. We also have other interest rate options available to us. At June 30, 2011, we had a borrowing capacity of $425 million available on our credit facility and no outstanding balance. If there were outstanding borrowings, the borrowing rate would have been 2.0%.

We expect to use our credit facility to acquire additional properties and for other corporate purposes. Any additional borrowings will increase our exposure to interest rate risk. We have the right to request an increase in the borrowing capacity of the credit facility, up to $200 million, to a total borrowing capacity of $625 million. Any increase in the borrowing capacity is subject to approval by the lending banks participating in our credit facility.

Cash Reserves

We are organized to operate as an equity REIT that acquires and leases properties and distributes to stockholders, in the form of monthly cash distributions, a substantial portion of our net cash flow generated from leases on our properties. We intend to retain an appropriate amount of cash as working capital. At June 30, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents totaling $155.7 million, which includes net proceeds of $140.1 million from the June 2011 issuance of bonds. A majority of our cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2011, will be used to fund a portion of our previously announced $544 million acquisition of 33 single-tenant retail, distribution, office and manufacturing properties.

We believe that our cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash provided from operating activities, and borrowing capacity is sufficient to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future. We intend, however, to use additional sources of capital to fund property acquisitions and to repay future borrowings under our credit facility.

Universal Shelf Registration

In March 2009, we filed a shelf registration statement with the SEC, which expires in March 2012. In accordance with the SEC rules, the amount of the securities to be issued pursuant to this shelf registration statement was not specified when it was filed and there is no specific dollar limit. The securities covered by this registration statement include common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, or any combination of these securities. We may periodically offer one or more of these securities in amounts, prices and on terms to be announced when and if the securities are offered. The specifics of any future offerings, along with the use of proceeds of any securities offered, will be described in detail in a prospectus supplement, or other offering materials, at the time of any offering.

Table of contents

Credit Agency Ratings

The borrowing rates under our credit facility are based upon our credit ratings. We are currently assigned the following investment grade corporate credit ratings on our senior unsecured notes: Fitch Ratings has assigned a rating of BBB+, Moody’s Investors Service has assigned a rating of Baa1 and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group has assigned a rating of BBB to our senior notes. All of these ratings have “stable” outlooks.

Based on our current ratings, the current facility interest rate is LIBOR plus 185 basis points with a facility commitment fee of 35 basis points, for all-in drawn pricing of 220 basis points over LIBOR. The credit facility provides that the interest rate can range between: (i) LIBOR plus 300 basis points if our credit facility is lower than BBB-/Baa3 and (ii) LIBOR plus 175 basis points if our credit rating is A-/A3 or higher.

In addition, our credit facility provides for a facility commitment fee based on our credit ratings, which ranges from (i) 50 basis points for a rating lower than BBB-/Baa3, and (ii) 30 basis points for a credit rating of A-/A3 or higher.

We also issue senior debt securities from time to time and our credit ratings can impact the interest rates charged in those transactions. If our credit ratings or ratings outlook change, our cost to obtain debt financing could increase or decrease.

The credit ratings assigned to us could change based upon, among other things, our results of operations and financial condition. These ratings are subject to ongoing evaluation by credit rating agencies and we cannot assure you that our ratings will not be changed or withdrawn by a rating agency in the future if, in its judgment, circumstances warrant. Moreover, a rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold our debt securities, preferred stock or common stock.

Notes Outstanding

Our senior unsecured note obligations consist of the following as of June 30, 2011, sorted by maturity date (dollars in millions):

5.375% notes, issued in March 2003 and due in March 2013	$	100
5.5% notes, issued in November 2003 and due in November 2015		150
5.95% notes, issued in September 2006 and due in September 2016		275
5.375% notes, issued in September 2005 and due in September 2017		175
6.75% notes, issued in September 2007 and due in August 2019		550
5.75% notes, issued in June 2010 and due in January 2021		250
5.875% bonds, $100 issued in March 2005 and $150 issued in June 2011, both due in March 2035		250
	$	1,750

All of our outstanding unsecured notes and bonds have fixed interest rates. Interest on all of our senior note and bond obligations is paid semiannually. All of these notes and bonds contain various covenants, including: (i) a limitation on incurrence of any debt which would cause our debt to total adjusted assets ratio to exceed 60%; (ii) a limitation on incurrence of any secured debt which would cause our secured debt to total adjusted assets ratio to exceed 40%; (iii) a limitation on incurrence of any debt which would cause our debt service coverage ratio to be less than 1.5 times; and (iv) the maintenance at all times of total unencumbered assets not less than 150% of our outstanding unsecured debt. We have been in compliance with these covenants since each of the notes and bonds was issued.

The following is a summary of the key financial covenants for our senior unsecured notes, as defined and calculated per the terms of our notes. These calculations, which are not based on U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, measurements, are presented to investors to show our ability to incur additional debt under the terms of our notes only and are not measures of our liquidity or performance. The actual amounts as of June 30, 2011 are:

Table of contents

Note Covenants	Required	Actual

(1) Excludes net premiums of $957,000 recorded on the mortgages payable.

(2) Interest on the credit facility, notes and mortgages payable has been calculated based on outstanding balances as of June 30, 2011 through their respective maturity dates.

(3) Our tenants, who are generally sub-tenants under ground leases, are responsible for paying the rent under these ground leases. In the event a tenant fails to pay the ground lease rent, we are primarily responsible.

(4) “Other” consists of $12.4 million of commitments under construction contracts and $924,000 of contingent payments for tenant improvements and leasing costs.

Our credit facility and note obligations are unsecured. Accordingly, we have not pledged any assets as collateral for these obligations. Our mortgages payable are secured by the properties on which the debt was placed and are non-recourse.

Preferred Stock Outstanding

In 2004, we issued 5.1 million shares of 7.375% Class D cumulative redeemable preferred stock. In May 2009, shares of Class D preferred stock became redeemable at our option for $25 per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. Dividends on shares of Class D preferred stock are paid monthly in arrears.

In 2006, we issued 8.8 million shares of 6.75% Class E cumulative redeemable preferred stock. Beginning December 7, 2011, shares of Class E preferred stock are redeemable at our option for $25 per share, plus any accrued and unpaid dividends. Dividends on shares of Class E preferred stock are paid monthly in arrears.

We are current in our obligations to pay dividends on our Class D and Class E preferred stock.

No Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements or Unconsolidated Investments

We have no unconsolidated or off-balance sheet investments in “variable interest entities” or off-balance sheet financing, nor do we engage in trading activities involving energy or commodity contracts or other derivative instruments. Additionally, we have no joint ventures or mandatorily redeemable preferred stock. As such, our financial position and results of operations are not affected by accounting regulations regarding the consolidation of off-balance sheet entities and classification of financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity.

Distribution Policy

Distributions are paid monthly to our common, Class D preferred and Class E preferred stockholders if, and when, declared by our Board of Directors.

In order to maintain our status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we generally are required to distribute dividends to our stockholders aggregating annually at least 90% of our taxable income (excluding net capital gains), and we are subject to income tax to the extent we distribute less than 100% of our taxable income (including net capital gains). In 2010, our cash distributions totaled $206.8 million, or approximately 136.3% of our estimated REIT taxable income of $151.7 million. Our REIT taxable income reflects non-cash deductions for depreciation and amortization. Our REIT taxable income is presented to show our compliance with REIT distribution requirements and is not a measure of our liquidity or performance.

We intend to continue to make distributions to our stockholders that are sufficient to meet this distribution requirement and that will reduce or eliminate our exposure to income taxes. Furthermore, we believe our funds from operations are more than sufficient to support our current level of cash distributions to our stockholders. Our cash distributions to common stockholders, for the first six months of 2011, totaled $106.1 million, representing 90.3% of our funds from operations available to common stockholders of $117.5 million. In comparison, our 2010 cash distributions to common stockholders totaled $182.5 million, representing 94.2% of our funds from operations available to common stockholders of $193.7 million.

The Class D preferred stockholders receive cumulative distributions at a rate of 7.375% per annum on the $25 per share liquidation preference (equivalent to $1.84375 per annum per share). The Class E preferred stockholders receive cumulative distributions at a rate of 6.75% per annum on the $25 per share liquidation preference (equivalent to $1.6875 per annum per share). Dividends on our Class D and Class E preferred stock are current.

Future distributions will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on, among other things, our results of operations, FFO, cash flow from operations, financial condition and capital requirements, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, our debt service requirements and any other factors the Board of Directors may deem relevant. In addition, our credit facility contains financial covenants that could limit the amount of distributions payable by us in the event of a default, and which prohibit the payment of distributions on the common or preferred stock in the event that we fail to pay when due (subject to any applicable grace period) any principal or interest on borrowings under our credit facility.

Distributions of our current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes generally will be taxable to stockholders as ordinary income, except to the extent that we recognize capital gains and declare a capital gains dividend, or that such amounts constitute "qualified dividend income" subject to a reduced rate of tax. The maximum tax rate of non-corporate taxpayers for “qualified dividend income” has generally been reduced to 15% (until it “sunsets” or reverts to the provisions of prior law, which under current law will occur with respect to taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012). In general, dividends payable by REITs are not eligible for the reduced tax rate on corporate dividends, except to the extent the REIT’s dividends are attributable to dividends received from taxable corporations (such as our taxable REIT subsidiary, Crest), to income that was subject to tax at the corporate or REIT level (for example, if we distribute taxable income that we retained and paid tax on in the prior taxable year) or, as discussed above, dividends properly designated by us as “capital gain dividends.” Distributions in excess of earnings and profits generally will be treated as a non-taxable reduction in the stockholders’ basis in their stock. Distributions above that basis, generally, will be taxable as a capital gain to stockholders who hold their shares as a capital asset. Approximately 26.8% of the distributions to our common stockholders, made or deemed to have been made in 2010, were classified as a return of capital for federal income tax purposes. We are unable to predict the portion of future distributions that may be classified as a return of capital.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Critical Accounting Policies

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our consolidated financial statements are the basis for our discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations. Preparing our consolidated financial statements requires us to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. We believe that we have made these estimates and assumptions in an appropriate manner and in a way that accurately reflects our financial condition. We continually test and evaluate these estimates and assumptions using our historical knowledge of the business, as well as other factors, to ensure that they are reasonable for reporting purposes. However, actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. This summary should be read in conjunction with the more complete discussion of our accounting policies and procedures included in note 2 to our consolidated financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

In order to prepare our consolidated financial statements according to the rules and guidelines set forth by GAAP, many subjective judgments must be made with regard to critical accounting policies. One of these judgments is our estimate for useful lives in determining depreciation expense for our properties. Depreciation on a majority of our buildings and improvements is computed using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 25 years. If we use a shorter or longer estimated useful life, it could have a material impact on our results of operations. We believe that 25 years is an appropriate estimate of useful life.

When acquiring a property for investment purposes, we allocate the fair value of real estate acquired to: (1) land and (2) building and improvements, based in each case on their estimated fair values. In addition, any assumed mortgages payable are recorded at their estimated fair values.

For properties acquired with in-place operating leases, we allocate the fair value of real estate acquired to: (1) land, (2) building and improvements, and (3) identified intangible assets and liabilities, based in each case on their estimated fair values. Intangible assets and liabilities consist of above-market and below-market leases, the value of in-place leases, and tenant relationships.

Another significant judgment must be made as to if, and when, impairment losses should be taken on our properties when events or a change in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Generally, a provision is made for impairment if estimated future operating cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) plus estimated disposition proceeds (undiscounted) are less than the current book value of the property. Key inputs that we estimate in this analysis include projected rental rates, capital expenditures, property holding periods, and property sales capitalization rates. If a property is held for sale, it is carried at the lower of carrying cost or estimated fair value, less estimated cost to sell. The carrying value of our real estate is the largest component of our consolidated balance sheet. If events should occur that require us to reduce the carrying value of our real estate by recording provisions for impairment, it could have a material impact on our results of operations.

The following is a comparison of our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 to the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.

Rental Revenue

Rental revenue was $102.4 million for the second quarter of 2011, versus $82.2 million for the second quarter of 2010, an increase of $20.2 million, or 24.6%. The increase in rental revenue in the second quarter of 2011, compared to the second quarter of 2010, is primarily attributable to:

●	The 36 properties (3.5 million square feet) acquired by Realty Income in 2011, which generated $4.9 million of rent in the second quarter of 2011;

Table of contents

●	The 186 retail properties (2.3 million square feet) acquired by Realty Income in 2010, which generated $14.0 million of rent in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $927,000 of rent in the second quarter of 2010, for an increase of $13.1 million;

●	Same store rents generated on 2,165 properties (17.7 million square feet) during the entire second quarters of 2011 and 2010, increased by $1.4 million, or 1.8%, to $81.0 million from $79.6 million;

●

A net increase of $940,000 relating to the aggregate of (i) rental revenue from 114 properties (1.1 million square feet) that were available for lease during part of 2011 or 2010, (ii) rental revenue related to 37 properties sold during 2011 and 2010 and (iii) lease termination settlements, which, in aggregate, totaled $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2011 compared to $1.2 million in the second quarter of 2010; and

●	A net decrease in straight-line rent and other non-cash adjustments to rent of $209,000, in the second quarter of 2011, as compared to the second quarter of 2010.

Rental revenue was $200.0 million for the first six months of 2011, versus $164.6 million for the first six months of 2010, an increase of $35.4 million, or 21.5%. The increase in rental revenue in the first six months of 2011, compared to the first six months of 2010, is primarily attributable to:

●	The 36 properties (3.5 million square feet) acquired by Realty Income in 2011, which generated $5.6 million of rent in the first six months of 2011;

●	The 186 properties (2.3 million square feet) acquired by Realty Income in 2010, which generated $27.96 million of rent in the first six months of 2011 compared to $949,000 in the first six months of 2010, for an increase of $27.0 million;

●	Same store rents generated on 2,165 properties (17.7 million square feet) during the entire first six months of 2011 and 2010 increased by $2.3 million, or 1.4%, to $162.12 million from $159.87 million;

●

A net increase of $815,000 relating to the aggregate of (i) rental revenue from 114 properties (1.1 million square feet) that were available for lease during part of 2011 or 2010, (ii) rental revenue related to 37 properties sold during 2011 and 2010, and (iii) lease termination settlements, which in aggregate, totaled $3.9 million in the first six months of 2011 compared to $3.1 million in the first six months of 2010; and

●	A net decrease in straight-line rent and other non-cash adjustments to rent of $277,000 in the first six months of 2010 as compared to the first six months of 2009.

For purposes of determining the same store pool, we include all properties that were owned for the entire year-to-date period, as of both the current and prior year except for properties during the current or prior year that; (i) were available for lease at any time, (ii) were under development, (iii) we have made an additional investment, (iv) were involved in eminent domain and rent was reduced and (v) were re-leased with rent-free periods. Each of the exclusions from the same store pool is separately addressed within the applicable sentences above explaining the changes in rental revenue for the period. To enhance comparability of the results for the quarterly and year-to-date information, we have elected to use the same pool of properties for both the three and six month analyses.

Of the 2,523 properties in the portfolio at June 30, 2011, 2,507, or 99.4%, are single-tenant properties and the remaining 16 are multi-tenant properties. Of the 2,507 single-tenant properties, 2,440, or 97.3%, were net leased with a weighted average remaining lease term (excluding rights to extend a lease at the option of the tenant) of approximately 11.1 years at June 30, 2011. Of our 2,440 leased single-tenant properties, 2,255, or 92.4%, were under leases that provide for increases in rents through:

●	Primarily base rent increases tied to a consumer price index (typically subject to ceilings);

●	Overage rent based on a percentage of the tenants’ gross sales;

●	Fixed increases; or

●	A combination of two or more of the above rent provisions.

Table of contents

Percentage rent, which is included in rental revenue, was $208,000 in the second quarter of 2011 and $88,000 in the second quarter of 2010. Percentage rent was $680,000 in the first six months of 2011 and $711,000 in the first six months of 2010. Percentage rent in the second quarter and first six months of 2011 was less than 1% of rental revenue and we anticipate percentage rent to continue to be less than 1% of rental revenue for the remainder of 2011.

Our portfolio of real estate, leased primarily to regional and national commercial enterprises under net leases, continues to perform well and provides dependable lease revenue supporting the payment of monthly dividends to our stockholders. At June 30, 2011, our portfolio of 2,523 properties was 97.3% leased with 68 properties available for lease as compared to 84 at December 31, 2010 and 90 at June 30, 2010. It has been our experience that approximately 2% to 4% of our property portfolio will be unleased at any given time; however, it is possible that the number of properties available for lease could exceed these levels in the future.

Depreciation and Amortization

For the second quarter of 2011, depreciation and amortization was $29.0 million as compared to $23.3 million in the second quarter of 2010. For the first six months of 2011, depreciation and amortization was $55.8 million as compared to $46.3 million in the first six months of 2010. The increase in depreciation and amortization in 2011 was primarily due to the acquisition of properties in 2011 and 2010, which was partially offset by property sales in those same years. As discussed in the section entitled "Funds from Operations Available to Common Stockholders," depreciation and amortization is a non-cash item that is added back to net income available to common stockholders for our calculation of FFO and AFFO.

Interest Expense

Interest expense was $25.6 million, for the second quarter of 2011, as compared to $21.6 million, for the second quarter of 2010. Interest expense was $50.8 million, for the first six months of 2011, as compared to $43.0 million, for the first six months of 2010. The increase in interest expense from 2010 to 2011 was primarily due to an increase in borrowings attributable to the issuance of our $250 million of 5.75% senior unsecured notes in June 2010 and higher credit facility commitment fees and origination costs as a result of our $425 million acquisition credit facility, which was entered into in December 2010.

The following is a summary of the components of our interest expense (dollars in thousands):

	Three months ended						Six months ended
	June 30, 2011			June 30, 2010			June 30, 2011			June 30, 2010

Average interest rates		6.04	%		5.98	%		6.04	%		6.03	%

Table of contents

At June 30, 2011, the weighted average interest rate on our notes payable of $1.75 billion was 6.03% and the weighted average interest rate on our mortgages payable of $59.6 million was 4.92%. There was no outstanding balance on our credit facility at June 30, 2011, but if there was, the borrowing rate would have been 2.04%.

Interest Coverage Ratio

Our interest coverage ratio for the second quarter of 2011 was 3.6 times, and for the second quarter of 2010 was 3.4 times. Our interest coverage ratio for the first six months of 2011 was 3.6 times, and for the first six months of 2010 was 3.5 times. Interest coverage ratio is calculated as: the interest coverage amount (as calculated in the following table) divided by interest expense, including interest recorded as discontinued operations. We consider interest coverage ratio to be an appropriate supplemental measure of a company's ability to meet its interest expense obligations. Our calculation of interest coverage ratio may be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. This information should not be considered as an alternative to any GAAP liquidity measures.

The following is a reconciliation of net cash provided by operating activities on our consolidated statements of cash flow to our interest coverage amount (dollars in thousands):

	Three months ended						Six months ended
	June 30, 2011			June 30, 2010			June 30, 2011			June 30, 2010

(1) Crest activities.

(2) Includes interest expense recorded to "income from discontinued operations, real estate acquired for resale by Crest" on our consolidated statements of income.

Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio

Our fixed charge coverage ratio for the second quarter of 2011 was 2.9 times, and for the second quarter of 2010 was 2.7 times. Our fixed charge coverage ratio for the first six months of 2011 was 2.9 times, and for the first six months of 2010 was 2.7 times. Fixed charge coverage ratio is calculated in exactly the same manner as interest coverage ratio, except that preferred stock dividends are also added to the denominator. We consider fixed charge coverage ratio to be an appropriate supplemental measure of a company’s ability to make its interest and preferred stock dividend payments. Our calculation of the fixed charge coverage ratio may be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore, comparability may be limited. This information should not be considered as an alternative to any GAAP liquidity measures.

General and Administrative Expenses

General and administrative expenses increased by $1.3 million to $8.0 million in the second quarter of 2011 as compared to $6.7 million in the second quarter of 2010. Included in general and administrative expenses are acquisition transaction costs of $542,000 for the second quarter of 2011, as compared to $40,000 for the second quarter of 2010. General and administrative expenses increased during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, primarily due to increases in employee costs, higher acquisition transaction costs and higher state registration fees. In the second quarter of 2011, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue were 7.8%, as compared to 8.1% in the second quarter of 2010.

General and administrative expenses increased by $2.5 million to $15.9 million in the first six months of 2011, as compared to $13.4 million in the first six months of 2010. Included in general and administrative expenses are acquisition transaction costs of $913,000 for the first six months of 2011, as compared to $88,000 for the first six months of 2010. As a percentage of total revenue, general and administrative expenses were 7.9% in the first six months of 2011, as compared to 8.1% in the first six months of 2010. In July 2011, we had 78 employees, as compared to 75 employees in July 2010.

Property Expenses

Property expenses are broken down into costs associated with non-net leased multi-tenant properties, unleased single-tenant properties and general portfolio expenses. Expenses related to the multi-tenant and unleased single-tenant properties include, but are not limited to, property taxes, maintenance, insurance, utilities, property inspections, bad debt expense, and legal fees. General portfolio costs include, but are not limited to, insurance, legal, bad debt expense, property inspections, and title search fees. At June 30, 2011, 68 properties were available for lease, as compared to 84 at December 31, 2010 and 90 at June 30, 2010.

Property expenses were $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2011, and $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2010. Property expenses were $3.5 million in the first six months of 2011, and $3.6 million in the first six months of 2010. The decrease in property expenses in the first six months of 2011 is primarily attributable to a decrease in bad debt expense, partially offset by an increase in maintenance and utilities associated with properties available for lease.

Income Taxes

Income taxes were $368,000 in the second quarter of 2011, as compared to $277,000 in the second quarter of 2010. Income taxes were $735,000 in the first six months of 2011, as compared to $555,000 for the first six months of 2010. These amounts are for city and state income taxes paid by Realty Income.

Table of contents

In addition, Crest recorded state and federal income tax benefits of $88,000 in the second quarter of 2011, as compared to income tax benefits of $111,000 in the second quarter of 2010. Crest recorded state and federal income tax benefits of $179,000 in the first six months of 2011, as compared to income tax benefits of $201,000 in the first six months of 2010. These amounts are included in "income from discontinued operations, real estate acquired for resale by Crest" on our consolidated statements of income.

Discontinued Operations

Crest’s inventory of three properties is classified as real estate held for investment at June 30, 2011. The results of operations for these properties are included in “income from continuing operations” on our consolidated statements of income.

The following is a summary of Crest’s “income from discontinued operations, real estate acquired for resale by Crest” on our consolidated statements of income (dollars in thousands):

Crest's Property Sales

During the first six months of 2011 and 2010, Crest did not sell any properties.

Gain on Sales of Investment Properties by Realty Income

During the second quarter of 2011, we sold six investment properties for $3.3 million, which resulted in a gain of $1.1 million. During the first six months of 2011, we sold nine investment properties for $4.4 million, which resulted in a gain of $1.2 million. The results of operations for these properties have been reclassified as discontinued operations. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2011, we sold excess land from three properties for $675,000, which resulted in a gain of $155,000. This gain is included in "other revenue" on our consolidated statement of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 because this excess land was associated with properties that continue to be owned as part of our core operations.

Provisions for Impairment on Real Estate Acquired for Resale by Crest

No provisions for impairment were recorded by Crest in the first six months of 2011 or 2010.

Provisions for Impairment on Realty Income Investment Properties

For the second quarter of 2011, Realty Income recorded a provision for impairment of $10,000 on one property, which was classified as held for sale at June 30, 2011. For the second quarter of 2010, Realty Income recorded a provision for impairment of $53,000 on one property, which was sold in the second quarter of 2010. These provisions for impairment are included in "income from discontinued operations, real estate held for investment" on our consolidated statements of income, for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

For the first six months of 2011, Realty Income recorded provisions for impairment of $210,000 on three properties, one of which was sold in March and two of which are classified as held for sale at June 30, 2011. For the first six months of 2010, Realty Income recorded provisions for impairment of $87,000 on two properties, both of which were sold in the second quarter of 2010. These provisions for impairment are included in "income from discontinued operations, real estate held for investment" on our consolidated statements of income, for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Preferred Stock Dividends

Preferred stock cash dividends totaled $6.1 million in the second quarters of 2011 and 2010 and $12.1 million in the first six months of 2011 and 2010.

Net Income Available to Common Stockholders

Net income available to common stockholders was $33.2 million in the second quarter of 2011, an increase of $8.2 million, as compared to $25.0 million in the second quarter of 2010. Net income available to common stockholders was $63.1 million in the first six months of 2011, an increase of $14.0 million, as compared to $49.1 million in the first six months of 2010.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS AVAILABLE TO COMMON STOCKHOLDERS (FFO)

FFO, for the second quarter of 2011, increased by $14.1 million, or 30.1%, to $60.9 million, as compared to $46.8 million for the second quarter of 2010. FFO, for the first six months of 2011, increased by $24.1 million, or 25.8%, to $117.5 million, as compared to $93.4 million for the first six months of 2010. The following is a reconciliation of net income available to common stockholders (which we believe is the most comparable GAAP measure) to FFO. Also presented is information regarding distributions paid to common stockholders and the weighted average number of common shares used for the basic and diluted computation per share (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

	Three months ended						Six months ended
	June 30, 2011			June 30, 2010			June 30, 2011			June 30, 2010

Weighted average number of common shares used for computation per share:
Basic		125,999,323			103,612,454			122,547,027			103,653,250
Diluted		126,202,047			103,765,828			122,691,418			103,778,609

We define FFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trust's definition, as net income available to common stockholders, plus depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, reduced by gains on sales of investment properties and extraordinary items.

We consider FFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of a REIT’s operating performance as it is based on a net income analysis of property portfolio performance that adds back items such as depreciation. The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, presentations of operating results for a REIT, using historical accounting for depreciation, could be less informative. The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental performance measure. In addition, FFO is used as a measure of our compliance with the financial covenants of our credit facility.

ADJUSTED FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS AVAILABLE TO COMMON STOCKHOLDERS (AFFO)

AFFO, for the second quarter of 2011, increased by $14.7 million, or 30.8%, to $62.4 million, as compared to $47.7 million for the second quarter of 2010. AFFO, for the first six months of 2011, increased by $25.3 million, or 26.5%, to $120.6 million, as compared to $95.3 million for the first six months of 2010. We consider AFFO to be an appropriate supplemental measure of our performance. Most companies in our industry use a similar measurement, but they may use the term "CAD" (for Cash Available for Distribution) or "FAD" (for Funds Available for Distribution).

The following is a reconciliation of net income available to common stockholders (which we believe is the most comparable GAAP measure) to FFO and AFFO. Also presented is information regarding distributions paid to common stockholders and the weighted average number of common shares used for the basic and diluted computation per share (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

Includes the amortization of costs incurred and capitalized when our senior notes were issued in March 2003, November 2003, March 2005, September 2005, September 2006, September 2007, June 2010 and June 2011. Also includes the amortization of deferred financing costs incurred and capitalized in connection with our assumption of the mortgages payable in June 2011. These costs are being amortized over the lives of the respective mortgages. No costs associated with our credit facility agreements or annual fees paid to credit rating agencies have been included.

(3)	Includes straight-line rent revenue and the amortization of above and below-market leases.

Table of contents

We believe the non-GAAP financial measure AFFO provides useful information to investors because it is a widely accepted industry measure of the operating performance of real estate companies that is used by industry analysts and investors who look at and compare those companies. In particular, AFFO provides an additional measure by which to compare the operating performance of different REITs without having to account for differing depreciation assumptions and other unique revenue and expense items which are not pertinent to the measurement of the particular company’s on-going operating performance. Therefore, we believe that AFFO is an appropriate supplemental performance metric, and that the most appropriate GAAP performance metric to which AFFO should be reconciled is net income available to common stockholders.

Presentation of the information regarding FFO and AFFO is intended to assist the reader in comparing the operating performance of different REITs, although it should be noted that not all REITs calculate FFO and AFFO in the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. Furthermore, FFO and AFFO are not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance. FFO and AFFO should not be considered as an alternative to reviewing our cash flows from operating, investing and financing activities. In addition, FFO and AFFO should not be considered as a measure of liquidity, of our ability to make cash distributions, or of our ability to pay interest payments.

PROPERTY PORTFOLIO INFORMATION

At June 30, 2011, we owned a diversified portfolio:

●	Of 2,523 properties;

●	With an occupancy rate of 97.3%, or 2,455 properties leased and only 68 properties available for lease;

●	Leased to 131 different retail and other commercial enterprises doing business in 37 separate industries;

●	Located in 49 states;

●	With over 24.6 million square feet of leasable space; and

●	With an average leasable space per property of approximately 9,800 square feet.

In addition to our real estate portfolio, our subsidiary, Crest, had an inventory of three properties located in three states at June 30, 2011. These properties are classified as held for investment.

At June 30, 2011, of our 2,523 properties, 2,440 were leased under net-lease agreements. A net lease typically requires the tenant to be responsible for minimum monthly rent and property operating expenses including property taxes, insurance and maintenance. In addition, our tenants are typically subject to future rent increases based on increases in the consumer price index (typically subject to ceilings), additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenants’ gross sales above a specified level, or fixed increases.

In order to more accurately reflect our exposure to various industries, the following industry table has been modified to reflect the changes below:

●	Properties previously included in the “distribution and office” industry were reclassified to the “home improvement,” “convenience store,” and “restaurant” industries, to better reflect the industry in which the tenant operates;

●	The “restaurant” industry was separated into the “restaurants - casual dining” industry, which includes properties previously classified to dinner houses/family restaurants, and the “restaurants - quick service” industry, which includes fast food restaurants;

●	The “equipment rental” industry was renamed “equipment services;”

●	The “travel plazas” industry was renamed “transportation services;” and

●	The “wine and spirits” industry was renamed “beverages.”

Table of contents

IMPACT OF INFLATION

Tenant leases generally provide for limited increases in rent as a result of increases in the tenants’ sales volumes, increases in the consumer price index (typically subject to ceilings), and/or fixed increases. We expect that inflation will cause these lease provisions to result in rent increases over time. During times when inflation is greater than increases in rent, as provided for in the leases, rent increases may not keep up with the rate of inflation.

Of our 2,523 properties in the portfolio, approximately 96.7% or 2,440 are leased to tenants under net leases where the tenant is responsible for property expenses. Net leases tend to reduce our exposure to rising property expenses due to inflation. Inflation and increased costs may have an adverse impact on our tenants if increases in their operating expenses exceed increases in revenue.

IMPACT OF RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

For information on the impact of recent accounting pronouncements on our business, see note 2 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of our credit facility and long-term notes and bonds used to maintain liquidity and expand our real estate investment portfolio and operations. Our interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flow and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives we issue long-term notes and bonds, primarily at fixed rates. We do not enter into any derivative transactions for speculative or trading purposes.

The following table presents by year of expected maturity, the principal amounts, average interest rates, and estimated fair values of our fixed and variable rate debt as of June 30, 2011. This information is presented to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes (dollars in millions):

Totals (5)	$	1,785.0		6.04	%	$	23.6		4.69	%
Fair Value (6)	$	1,913.7				$	23.5

(1)	$100 million of fixed rate notes mature in March 2013 and $12.1 million of fixed rate mortgages mature in December 2013.

(2)	$10.7 million of fixed rate mortgages mature in May 2014, $11.3 million matures in September 2014 and the credit facility expires in March 2014.

(3)	$150 million of fixed rate senior notes mature in November 2015 and $23.6 million of variable rate mortgages mature in June 2015. The variable interest rate on the mortgages of $23.6 million is capped at 5.5%.

(4)	As it relates to fixed rate senior notes, $275 million matures in September 2016, $175 million matures in September 2017, $550 million matures in August 2019, $250 million matures in January 2021 and $250 million matures in March 2035.

(5)	Excludes net premiums of $957,000 recorded on mortgages payable.

(6)

We base the estimated fair value of the fixed rate senior notes at June 30, 2011 on the indicative market prices and recent trading activity of our notes payable. We base the estimated fair value of our fixed rate and variable rate mortgages at June 30, 2011 on indicative market prices obtained from an independent third party.

The table incorporates only those exposures that exist as of June 30, 2011. It does not consider those exposures or positions that could arise after that date. As a result, our ultimate realized gain or loss, with respect to interest rate fluctuations, would depend on the exposures that arise during the period, our hedging strategies at the time, and interest rates.

All of our outstanding senior notes and bonds have fixed interest rates. With the exception of one mortgage which has a variable interest rate, our other three mortgages have fixed interest rates. Interest on our credit facility balance is variable. At June 30, 2011, our credit facility balance was zero; however, we intend to borrow funds on our credit facility in the future. Based on a hypothetical credit facility borrowing of $50 million, a 1% change in interest rates would change our interest costs by $500,000 per year.

Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As of and for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, we carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and were operating at a reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Controls

There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2011 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. As of June 30, 2011, there were no material weaknesses in our internal controls, and therefore, no corrective actions were taken.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Internal control over financial reporting cannot provide absolute assurance of achieving financial reporting objectives because of its inherent limitations. Internal control over financial reporting is a process that involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of such limitations, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
