ITEM 1:  BUSINESS
-----------------

THE COMPANY

Realty Income Corporation, a Maryland corporation ("Realty Income" or the "Company") was organized to operate as an equity real estate investment trust ("REIT"). Realty Income is a fully integrated self- administered real estate company with in-house acquisition, leasing, legal, retail and real estate research, portfolio management and capital markets expertise. As of December 31, 1997, the Company owned a diversified portfolio of 826 retail properties located in 43 states with over 6.3 million square feet of leasable space. Of the 826 properties in the portfolio, 819 are single-tenant properties with the remainder being multi-tenant properties. As of December 31, 1997, 812, or over 99%, of the 819 single-tenant properties were net leased with an average remaining lease term (excluding extension options) of approximately 8.4 years.

The Company's primary business objective is to generate a consistent and predictable level of funds from operations ("FFO") per share and distributions to stockholders. Additionally, the Company generally will seek to increase FFO per share and distributions to stockholders through both active portfolio management and the acquisition of additional properties. The Company also seeks to lower the ratio of distributions to stockholders as a percentage of FFO in order to allow internal cash flow to be used to fund additional acquisitions and for other corporate purposes.

Realty Income adheres to a focused strategy of acquiring freestanding, single-tenant, retail properties leased to regional and national retail chains under long-term, net lease agreements. The Company typically acquires retail store locations which provides capital to the operators for continued expansion and other corporate purposes. Realty Income's acquisitions and investment activities are concentrated in highly specific target markets and focus primarily on middle-market retailers providing goods and services which satisfy basic consumer needs. The Company's net lease agreements generally are for initial terms of 10 to 20 years, require the tenant to pay a minimum monthly rent and property operating expenses (taxes, insurance and maintenance), and provide for future rent increases (typically subject to ceilings) based on increases in the consumer price index or additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenant's gross sales above a specified level.

From 1970 and through December 31, 1997, Realty Income has acquired and leased back to regional and national retail chains 797 properties (including 32 properties that have been sold) and has collected over

Page 4

98% of the contractual rent obligations on those properties. Realty Income believes that the long-term ownership of an actively managed, diversified portfolio of retail properties, leased under long-term net lease agreements, will produce consistent, predictable income and the potential for share price appreciation. Management believes that the income generated under long-term leases, coupled with the tenant's responsibility for property expenses under the net lease structure, generally produces a more predictable income stream than many other types of real estate portfolios.

The Company was formed on September 9, 1993 in the State of Delaware and reincorporated in Maryland in May 1997. Realty Income commenced operations as a REIT on August 15, 1994 through the merger of 25 public and private real estate limited partnerships with and into the Company (the "Consolidation"). Each of the partnerships was formed between 1970 and 1989 for the purpose of acquiring and managing long- term, net leased properties.

The five senior officers of the Company, who have each managed the Company's properties and operations for between seven and 12 years, owned approximately 1.0% of the Company's outstanding common stock with a market value of approximately $6.2 million as of March 16, 1998. The directors and five senior officers of the Company, as a group, owned approximately 3.2% of the Company's outstanding common stock with a market value of approximately $20.6 million as of March 16, 1998.

Thomas A. Lewis succeeded William E. Clark as Chief Executive Officer of the Company in May 1997. Mr. Lewis has been an officer of the Company since 1987 and has served as the Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors since 1994. Mr. Clark has continued as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company.

The Company's common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "O" and its central index key ("CIK") number is 726728.

Realty Income has 48 employees as of March 16, 1998.

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

During 1997, the Company continued implementing its growth plan, which is intended to increase the Company's funds from operations per share. As part of its growth plan, in 1997 the Company acquired 96 additional net leased retail properties with an aggregate initial annual contractual base rental revenue of approximately $14.7 million.

ACQUISITION OF 96 PROPERTIES DURING 1997. During 1997, the Company continued to increase the size of its portfolio through a strategic program of real estate acquisitions. The Company acquired 96

Page 5

additional properties (the "New Properties"), and selectively sold 10 properties, increasing the number of properties in its portfolio by 11.6% to 826 properties at December 31, 1997 from 740 properties at December 31, 1996. Of the New Properties, 88 were occupied as of February 28, 1998 and the remaining properties were pre-leased and under construction pursuant to contracts under which the tenants have agreed to develop the properties (with development costs funded by the Company) and to begin paying rent when the premises open for business. The New Properties were acquired for an aggregate cost of approximately $139.2 million (which excludes the estimated unfunded development costs totaling $2.9 million on properties under construction) at December 31, 1997. During 1997, the Company also invested $3.1 million in 12 development properties acquired during 1996. The New Properties are located in 27 states, will contain approximately 1.1 million leasable square feet and are 100% leased under net leases, with an average initial lease term of 14.4 years. The weighted average annual unleveraged return on the cost of the New Properties (including the estimated unfunded development cost of properties under construction) is estimated to be 10.4%, computed as estimated contractual net operating income (which in the case of a net leased property is equal to the base rent or, in the case of properties under construction, the estimated base rent under the lease) for the first year of each lease, divided by the estimated total development costs. Since it is possible that a tenant could default on the payment of contractual rent, no assurance can be given that the actual return on the cost of the New Properties will not differ from the foregoing percentage

INCREASE IN MONTHLY DISTRIBUTION. In December 1997, the Company increased its monthly distribution to $0.16 per share from $0.1575 per share, representing an increase of 1.6%. Effective April 1998, the Company increased its monthly distribution to $0.1625 per share, representing an increase of 1.6%. The monthly distribution of $0.1625 per share represents a current annualized distribution of $1.95 per share, and an annualized distribution yield of approximately 7.5% based on the last reported sale price of the Company's Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") of $26.00 on March 16, 1998. Although the Company expects to continue its policy of paying monthly distributions, there can be no assurance that the current level of distributions will be maintained by the Company or as to the actual distribution yield for any future period.

UNSECURED CREDIT FACILITY. In December 1997, the Company negotiated several modifications to its credit facility (the "Credit Facility"), including (i) an increase in borrowing capacity to $150 million; (ii) a reduction in the interest rate to London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 0.85% and 0.15% per annum on the total credit commitment; (iii) the addition of a competitive bid rate option for up to 50% of the credit commitment; and (iv) an extension of the credit facility to December 2000. This credit facility has been and is expected to be used to acquire additional retail properties leased to regional and national retail chains under long-term lease agreements.

Page 6

As of March 16, 1998, $138.0 million of borrowing capacity was available to the Company under the credit facility. At that time, the outstanding balance was $12.0 million with an effective interest rate of 6.6%.

STOCK OFFERINGS. In February 1998, the Company issued 751,174 shares of common stock at a net price to the Company of $25.295 per share to a unit investment trust. The net proceeds of $19.0 million were used to repay borrowings under the credit facility.

In October 1997, Realty Income issued 2.7 million shares of common stock at a price of $27.00 per share. The net proceeds of $68.7 million were used to repay borrowings of $62.6 under the credit facility and to acquire properties.

NOTES OFFERING. On May 6, 1997, Realty Income issued $110 million of 7.75% Notes due 2007 (the "Notes"). The Notes were sold at 99.929% of par for a yield of 7.76%. After taking into effect the $1.1 million gain realized on a treasury interest rate lock agreement entered into by the Company, the effective interest rate to the Company on the Notes is 7.62%. The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes were used to repay $93.7 million of outstanding borrowings under the Company's credit facility and to acquire properties. Currently, there is no formal trading market for the Notes and the Company has not listed and does not intend to list the Notes on any securities exchange.

The Company received investment grade corporate credit ratings from Duff & Phelps Rating Company, Moody's Investor Service, Inc., and Standard & Poor's Rating Group in December 1996. Currently, Duff & Phelps has assigned a rating of BBB, Moody's has assigned a rating of Baa3, and Standard & Poor's has assigned a rating of BBB- to the Company's senior debt. These ratings are subject to change based upon, among other things, the Company's results of operations and financial condition.

BUSINESS OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGY

GENERAL. The Company's primary business objective is to generate a consistent and predictable level of funds from operations per share and distributions to stockholders. Additionally, the Company generally seeks to increase FFO per share and distributions to stockholders through both active portfolio management and the acquisition of additional properties. The Company also seeks to lower the ratio of distributions to stockholders as a percentage of FFO in order to allow internal cash flow to be used to fund additional acquisitions and for other corporate purposes. The Company's current earnings and profits for federal taxable income tax purposes for 1996 and 1997 has been approaching the level of distributions paid during 1996 and 1997, respectively. As the level of earnings and profits for federal taxable tax purposes increases, the Company anticipates

Page 7

increasing its distributions. The Company increased its monthly distributions per share from $0.1575 to $0.1600 in December 1997 and to $0.1625 in April 1998. See "Business - Distribution Policy".

The Company's portfolio management focus includes: (i) contractual rent increases on existing leases; (ii) rental increases at the termination of existing leases when market conditions permit; and
(iii) the active management of the Company's property portfolio, including selective sales of properties. The Company generally pursues the acquisition of additional properties under long-term, net lease agreements with initial contractual base rent which, at the time of acquisition and as a percentage of acquisition costs, is in excess of the Company's estimated cost of capital.

INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY. Realty Income believes that the long-term ownership of an actively managed, diversified portfolio of retail properties leased under long-term, net lease agreements can produce consistent, predictable income and the potential for long-term share price appreciation. Under a net lease agreement, the tenant agrees to pay a minimum monthly rent and property expenses (taxes, maintenance, and insurance) plus, typically, future rent increases (generally subject to ceilings) based on increases in the consumer price index or, in some cases, additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenant's gross sales above a specified level. The Company believes that long-term leases, coupled with the tenants assuming responsibility for property expenses under the net lease structure, generally produce a more predictable income stream than many other types of real estate portfolios, while continuing to offer the opportunity for capital appreciation.

INVESTMENT STRATEGY. In identifying new properties for acquisition, Realty Income focuses on providing expansion capital to retail chains by acquiring, then leasing back their retail store locations. The Company classifies retail tenants into three categories: venture, middle market, and upper market. Venture companies are those which typically offer a new retail concept in one geographic region of the country and operate between five and 50 retail outlets. Middle market retail chains are those which typically have 50 to 500 retail outlets, operations in more than one geographic region, have been successful through one or more economic cycles, have a proven, replicable concept, and an objective of further expansion. The upper market retail chains typically consist of companies with 500 or more stores which operate nationally in a mature retail concept. Upper market retail chains generally have strong operating histories and access to several sources of capital.

Realty Income primarily focuses on acquiring properties leased to middle market retail chains which the Company believes are more attractive for investment because: (i) they generally have overcome many of the operational and managerial obstacles that affect venture companies; (ii) they typically require capital to fund expansion but have limited financing options; (iii) historically, they generally

Page 8

have provided attractive risk-adjusted returns to the Company over time, since their financial strength has in many cases tended to improve as their businesses have matured; (iv) their relatively large size allows them to spread corporate expenses among a greater number of stores; and (v), middle market retailers typically have the critical mass to survive if a number of locations have to be closed due to underperformance. Realty Income also selectively seeks opportunities with venture and upper market retail chains. Periodically, opportunities arise in the venture market where the company feels that the real estate used by the tenant is of high quality and can be purchased at prices that are favorable in the market place. Realty Income also plans to explore various opportunities with upper market retailers when the Company feels that it can achieve pricing superior to the marketplace because it can provide large amounts of capital to enable an upper market retail tenant to accomplish its expansion goals.

CREDIT STRATEGY. Realty Income principally provides sale leaseback financing to less than investment grade retail chains. From 1970 and through December 31, 1997, Realty Income has acquired and leased back to regional and national retail chains 797 properties (including 32 properties that have been sold) and has collected over 98% of the contractual rent obligations on those properties. The Company believes that it is within this market that it can receive the best risk-adjusted return on the financing that it provides to retailers.

Realty Income believes that the primary financial obligations of middle market retailers typically include their bank and other debt, payment obligations to suppliers and real estate lease obligations. Because the Company owns the land and building on which the tenant conducts its retail business, the Company believes that the risk of default on the retailers' lease obligations is less than the retailers' unsecured general obligations. It has been the Company's experience that since retailers must retain their profitable retail locations in order to survive, in the event of a Chapter 11 reorganization they are less likely to reject a lease for a profitable location, which would terminate their right to use the property. Thus, as the property owner, the Company believes it will fare better than unsecured creditors of the same retailer in the event of a Chapter 11 reorganization. In addition, Realty Income believes that the risk of default on the real estate leases can be further mitigated by monitoring the performance of the retailers' individual unit locations and selling those units that are weaker performers.

In order to qualify for inclusion in the Company's portfolio, new acquisitions must meet stringent investment and credit requirements. The properties must generate attractive current yields, and the tenant must meet the Company's credit standards. The Company has established a three part analysis that examines each potential investment based on: 1) industry, company, market conditions and credit profile; 2) location profitability, if available; and 3) overall real estate characteristics, value, and comparative rental rates. Companies that

Page 9

have been approved for acquisition are generally those with fifty or more retail stores located in highly visible areas, with easy access to major thoroughfares, attractive demographics.

ACQUISITION STRATEGY. Realty Income seeks to invest in industries that are dominated by independent local operators and in which several well organized regional and national chains are capturing market share through service, quality control, economies of scale, mass media advertising, and selection of prime retail locations. The Company executes its acquisition strategy by acting as a source of capital to regional and national retail chain stores in a variety of industries by acquiring, then leasing back, their retail store locations. Relying on executives from its acquisitions, retail and real estate research, portfolio management, finance, accounting, operations, capital markets, and legal departments, the Company undertakes thorough research and analysis in identifying appropriate industries, tenants, and property locations for investment. In selecting real estate for potential investment, the Company generally will seek to acquire properties that have the following characteristics:

* Freestanding, commercially zoned property with a single tenant;

* Properties that are important retail locations for national and regional retail chains;

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

* Properties that can be purchased with the simultaneous execution or assumption of long-term, net lease agreements, providing the opportunity for both current income and future rent increases (typically subject to ceilings) based on increases in the consumer price index or through the payment of additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenant's gross sales above a specified level; and

* Properties that can be acquired at prices generally ranging from $300,000 to $10 million.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT STRATEGY. The active management of the property portfolio is an essential component of the Company's long-term strategy. The Company continually monitors its portfolio for changes that could affect the performance of the industries, tenants, and locations in which it has invested. Realty Income's investment committee meets weekly to review industry and tenant research and property due diligence, and the executive committee meets at least monthly to discuss property operations and portfolio management. This monitoring typically includes ongoing review and analysis of: (i) the performance of various tenant industries; (ii) the operation, management, business planning, and financial condition of the tenants;
(iii) the health of the individual markets in which the Company owns

Page 10

properties, from both an economic and real estate standpoint; and (iv) the physical maintenance of the Company's individual properties. The portfolio is analyzed on an ongoing basis with a view towards optimizing performance and returns.

While the Company generally intends to hold its net leased properties for long-term investment, the Company actively manages its portfolio of net leased properties. The Company intends to pursue a strategy of identifying properties that may be sold at attractive prices, particularly where the Company believes reinvestment of the sales proceeds can generate a higher cash flow to the Company than the property being sold. While the Company intends to pursue such a strategy, it will only do so within the constraints of the income tax rules regarding REIT status.

CAPITAL STRATEGY. The Company has a $150 million revolving, unsecured acquisition Credit Facility which expires in December 2000. As of March 16, 1998, the outstanding balance on the Credit Facility was $12.0 million with an effective rate of approximately 6.6%. A commitment fee of 0.15% per annum accrues on the total credit commitment. The Company is and has been in compliance with the various leverage and interest coverage ratio limitations required by the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility has been and is expected to be used to acquire additional retail properties leased to regional and national retail chains under long term net lease agreements.

The Company utilizes its Credit Facility as a vehicle for the short- term financing of the acquisition of new properties. When outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility reach a certain level (generally in the range of $60 to $100 million), the Company intends to refinance those borrowings with the net proceeds of long-term or permanent financing, which may include the issuance of common stock, preferred stock or convertible preferred stock, debt securities or convertible debt securities. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to effect any such refinancing or that market conditions prevailing at the time of refinancing will enable the Company to issue equity or debt securities upon acceptable terms. The Company believes that it is best served by a conservative capital structure, with a majority of its capital consisting of equity. As of December 31, 1997, the Company's total indebtedness was approximately 20.3% of its equity market capitalization (defined as shares of the Company's common stock outstanding multiplied by the last reported sales price of the common stock on the NYSE on December 31, 1997).

Management believes that the Company's cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash provided from operating activities and borrowing capacity are sufficient to meet its liquidity needs other than the repayment of debt for the foreseeable future, except that the Company will require additional sources of capital to fund property acquisitions.

The Company received investment grade credit ratings from Duff & Phelps Credit Rating Company, Moody's Investor Service, Inc., and

Page 11

Standard & Poor's Rating Group in December 1996. Currently, Duff & Phelps has assigned a rating of BBB, Moody's has assigned a rating of Baa3, and Standard & Poor's has assigned a rating of BBB- to the Company's senior debt. These ratings are subject to change based upon, among other things, the Company's results of operations and financial condition.

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES. The Company believes that, to utilize its investment philosophy and strategy most successfully, it must seek to maintain the following competitive advantages:

(i) SIZE AND TYPE OF INVESTMENT PROPERTIES: The Company believes that smaller ($300,000 to $10,000,000) retail net leased properties represent an attractive investment opportunity in today's real estate environment. Due to the complexities of acquiring and managing a large portfolio of relatively small assets, the Company believes that these types of properties have not experienced significant institutional participation or the corresponding yield reduction experienced by larger income producing properties. The Company believes the less intensive day to day property management required by net lease agreements, coupled with the active management of a large portfolio of smaller properties by the Company, is an effective investment strategy.

The tenants of Realty Income's freestanding retail properties provide goods and services which satisfy basic consumer needs. In order to grow and expand, they need capital. Since the acquisition of real estate is typically the single largest capital expenditure of many such retailers, Realty Income's method of purchasing the property and then leasing it back under a net lease arrangement, allows the retail chain to free up capital.

(ii) INVESTMENT IN NEW INDUSTRIES: While specializing in single- tenant properties, the Company will seek to further diversify its portfolio among a variety of industries. The Company believes that diversification will allow it to invest in industries that are currently growing and have characteristics the Company finds attractive. These characteristics include, but are not limited to, industries dominated by local operators where regional and national chain operators can gain substantial market share and dominance through more efficient operations, as well as industries taking advantage of major demographic shifts in the population base. For example, in the early 1970s, Realty Income targeted the fast food industry to take advantage of the country's increasing desire to dine away from home, and in the early 1980s, it targeted the child day care industry, responding to the need for professional child care as more women entered the work force. During 1997, six new industries were added to Realty Income's portfolio. The six new industries include:
apparel stores, book stores, office supply stores, pet supply stores, shoe stores, and video rental stores.

Page 12

(iii) DIVERSIFICATION: Diversification of the portfolio by industry type, tenant and geographic location is key to the Company's objective of providing predictable investment results for its stockholders. As the Company expands it will seek to further diversify its portfolio. During 1997, 13 new retail chains were added to Realty Income's portfolio.

(iv) MANAGEMENT SPECIALIZATION: The Company believes that its management's specialization in single-tenant retail properties operated under net lease agreements is important to meeting its objectives. The Company plans to maintain this specialization and will seek to employ and train high quality professionals in this specialized area of real estate ownership, finance and management.

(v) TECHNOLOGY: The Company intends to stay at the forefront of technology in its efforts to efficiently and economically carry out its operations. The Company maintains a sophisticated information system that allows it to analyze its portfolio's performance and actively manage its investments. The Company believes that technology and information based systems will play an increasingly important role in its competitiveness as an investment manager and source of capital to a variety of industries and tenants.

The Company anticipates that the year 2000 date issue will not adversely affect its current software or computers and will not have a material impact its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

PROPERTIES

As of January 1, 1998, Realty Income owned a diversified portfolio of 826 properties in 43 states consisting of over 6.3 million square feet of leasable space. Of the 826 properties, 761, or 92%, were leased to regional or national retail chain operators; 41, or 5%, were leased to franchisees of retail chain operators; 16, or 2%, were leased to other tenant types; eight or less than 1% were available for lease. At January 1, 1998, over 98% of the properties were under net lease agreements. Net leases typically require the tenant to be responsible for property operating costs including property taxes, insurance and maintenance.

The Company's net leased retail properties are retail locations primarily leased to regional and national retail chain store operators. At January 1, 1998, the properties averaged approximately 7,600 square feet of leasable retail space on approximately 44,500 square feet of land. Generally, buildings are single-story properties with adequate parking on site to accommodate peak retail traffic periods. The properties tend to be on major thoroughfares with relatively high traffic counts and adequate access, egress and proximity to sufficient population base to constitute a sufficient market or trade area for the retailer's business.

(1) Annualized rent is calculated by multiplying the monthly contractual base rent as of January 1, 1998 by 12 and adding the 1997 historical percentage rent, which totaled $1.8 million (i.e., additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenant's gross sales above a specified level). For the properties under construction, an estimated contractual base rent is used based upon the estimated total costs of each property.

Of the 826 properties in the portfolio at January 1, 1998, 819 were single-tenant properties with the remaining properties being multi- tenant properties. As of January 1, 1998, 812, or 99%, of the single- tenant properties were net leased with an average remaining lease term (excluding extension options) of approximately 8.4 years.

(1) Annualized rent is calculated by multiplying the monthly contractual base rent as of January 1, 1998 by 12 and adding the 1997 historic percentage rent, which totaled $1.8 million (i.e., additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenant's gross sales above a specified level). For the properties under construction, an estimated contractual base rent is used based upon the estimated total costs of each property.

DESCRIPTION OF LEASING STRUCTURE. At January 1, 1998, over 98% of the Company's properties were leased pursuant to net leases. In most cases, the leases were for initial terms of from 10 to 20 years and the tenant has an option to extend the initial term. The leases generally provide for a minimum base rent plus future increases (typically subject to ceilings) based on increases in the consumer price index or additional rent based upon the tenant's gross sales above a specified level (i.e., percentage rent). Where leases provide for rent increases based on increases in the consumer price index, generally such increases permanently become part of the base rent. Where leases provide for percentage rent, this additional rent is typically payable only if the tenant's gross sales for a given period (usually one year) exceed a specified level, and then is typically calculated as a percentage of only the amount of gross sales in excess of such level. In general, the leases require the tenant to pay property taxes, insurance, and expenses of maintaining the property.

Matters Pertaining to Certain Properties and Tenants

Eight of the Company's properties were vacant as of January 1, 1998 (one of which is a multi-tenant property and seven of which are single-tenant properties) and available for lease. As of January 1, 1998, 26 of the Company's properties, which were under lease, were vacant and available for sublease by the tenant. All of these tenants were current with their rent and other obligations.

The Company's three largest tenants are Children's World Learning Centers, La Petite Academy, and Golden Corral Restaurants which accounted for approximately 20.4%, 13.8%, and 10.2%, respectively, of the Company's rental revenue for the year ended December 31, 1997. The financial position and results of operations of the Company and its ability to make distributions to stockholders and debt service payments may be materially adversely affected by financial difficulties experienced by any such major tenants or other tenants.

For the year ended December 31, 1997, approximately 35.9%, and 19.8% of the Company's rental revenues were attributable to tenants in the child care and restaurant industries, respectively. A downturn in any of these industries generally, whether nationwide or limited to specific sectors of the United States, could adversely affect tenants in those industries, which in turn could materially adversely affect the financial position and results of operations of the Company and

Page 17

its ability to make distributions to stockholders and debt service payments. In that regard, a substantial number of the Company's properties are leased to middle market retail chains which generally have more limited financial and other resources than certain upper market retail chains and therefore are more likely to be adversely affected by a downturn in their respective businesses or in the regional or national economy generally.

On September 5, 1997, Levitz Furniture filed a voluntary petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. Levitz Furniture occupies four of the Company's properties: two in California, one in Texas and one in Florida. As of March 1, 1998, the monthly base rent multiplied by 12 from the four stores leased to Levitz Furniture was approximately $2.5 million, or approximately 3.3% of the Company's total base rent at that date. While Levitz Furniture has paid its most recent rental payments, there can be no assurance that Levitz Furniture will continue to pay rent for the remainder of the lease terms for the four Levitz properties. Likewise, there can be no assurance that Levitz Furniture will not be released from its obligations under its leases with the Company pursuant to the bankruptcy proceedings. In the event that any of the aforementioned should occur, it could result in an adverse impact on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and ability to make distributions to stockholders and debt service payments.

Eight of the Company's properties were vacant as of January 1, 1998 and available for lease. Four of the vacant properties were previously leased to restaurant operators, one to a child care operator, one to a convenience store operator, one to a automotive parts store operator and one operated as a multi-tenant location. One of the restaurant locations which had been vacant since November 1995 was sold in January 1998.

Development of Certain Properties

Of the 96 New Properties acquired by the Company in 1997, 88 were occupied as of March 1, 1998 and the remaining eight were pre-leased and under construction pursuant to contracts under which the tenants have agreed to develop the properties (with development costs funded by the Company) and to begin paying rent when the premises open for business. In the case of development properties, the Company typically enters into an agreement with a tenant pursuant to which the tenant retains a contractor to construct the improvements on the property and the Company funds the costs of such development. The tenant is contractually obligated to complete the construction on a timely basis, generally within eight months after the Company purchases the land, to pay construction cost overruns to the extent they exceed the construction budget by more than a predetermined amount. The Company also enters into a lease with the tenant at the time the Company purchases the land, which generally requires that the

Page 18

tenant begin paying base rent, calculated as a percentage of the Company's acquisition cost for the property, including construction costs and capitalized interest, when the premises opens for business. During 1997, the Company acquired 19 development properties, 11 of which have been completed, were operating and paying rent as of March 1, 1998. The Company will continue to seek to acquire land for development under similar arrangements.

DISTRIBUTION POLICY

Distributions are paid to the Company's stockholders on a monthly basis if, as and when declared by the Company's Board of Directors. The April 1998 distribution of $0.1625 per share represents a current annualized distribution of $1.95 per share, and an annualized distribution yield of approximately 7.5% based on the last reported sale price of $26.00 of the Company's common stock, on the NYSE on March 16, 1998. In order to maintain its tax status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company is generally required to distribute dividends (other than capital gain dividends) to its stockholders in an amount equal to at least 95% of its taxable income. The Company intends to make distributions to its stockholders which are sufficient to meet this requirement.

Future distributions by the Company will be at the discretion of its Board of Directors and will depend on, among other things, its results of operations, financial condition and capital requirements, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), its debt service requirements and such other factors as the Board of Directors may deem relevant. In addition, the Credit Facility contains financial covenants which could limit the amount of distributions payable by the Company in the event of a deterioration in the results of operations or financial condition of the Company, and which prohibit the payment of distributions on the common stock in the event that the Company fails to pay when due (subject to any applicable grace period) any principal of or interest on borrowings under the Credit Facility.

Distributions by the Company to the extent of its current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal income tax purposes generally will be taxable to stockholders as ordinary income. Distributions in excess of such earnings and profits generally will be treated as a non-taxable reduction in the stockholders' basis in its stock to the extent of such basis, and thereafter as a gain from the sale of such stock. Approximately 5.2% of the distributions made or deemed to have been made in 1997 were classified as a return of capital for federal income tax purposes. The Company is unable to predict the portion of 1998 or future distributions which may be classified as a return of capital since such amount depends on the Company's taxable income for the entire year.

OTHER ITEMS

COMPETITION FOR ACQUISITION OF REAL ESTATE. The Company faces competition in the acquisition, operation and sale of its properties. Such competition can be expected from other businesses, individuals, fiduciary accounts and plans and other entities engaged in real estate investment. Some of the Company's competitors are larger and have greater financial resources than the Company. This competition may result in a higher cost for properties the Company wishes to purchase. The tenants leasing the Company's properties generally face significant competition from other operators. This may result in an adverse impact on that portion, if any, of the rental stream to be paid to the Company based on a tenant's revenues and may also adversely impact the tenants' results of operations or financial condition.

ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES. Investments in real property create a potential for environmental liability on the part of the owner of such property for contamination resulting from the presence or discharge of hazardous substances on the property. Such liability may be imposed without regard to knowledge of, or the timing, cause or person responsible for the release of such substances onto the property. There may be environmental problems associated with the Company's properties which are not known to the Company. In that regard, a number of the Company's properties are leased to operators of oil change and tune-up facilities and to convenience stores which sell petroleum-based fuels. These facilities or other of the Company's properties utilize, or may have utilized in the past, underground tanks for the storage of petroleum-based or waste products which could create a potential for release of hazardous substances. The presence of hazardous substances on a property may adversely affect the Company's ability to sell such property and it may cause the Company to incur substantial remediation costs. Although tenants of the Company's properties generally are required by their leases to operate in compliance with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations and to indemnify the Company against any environmental liabilities arising from the tenant's activities on the property, the Company could nevertheless be subject to strict liability by virtue of its ownership interest, and there can be no assurance that the tenants would satisfy their indemnification obligations under the leases.

The Company believes that its properties are in compliance in all material respects with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances and regulations regarding hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products. The Company has not been notified by any governmental authority, and is not otherwise aware, of any material noncompliance, liability or claim relating to hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products in connection with any of its present properties. Nevertheless, if environmental contamination should exist, the Company could be subject to strict liability by virtue of its ownership interest.

In December 1996, the Company obtained a five year environmental insurance policy on the property portfolio. Based upon the 826 properties in the portfolio at December 31, 1997, the cost of the insurance will be approximately $90,000 during 1998. The limit of the policy is $10.0 million for each loss and $20.0 million in the aggregate, with a $100,000 deductible. There is a sublimit on properties with underground storage tanks of $1.0 million per occurrence and $5.0 million in the aggregate, with a deductible of $25,000.

TAXATION OF THE COMPANY. The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code, commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1994. As long as the Company meets the requirements under the Code for qualification as a REIT each year, the Company will be entitled to a deduction when calculating its taxable income for dividends paid to its stockholders. For the Company to qualify as a REIT, however, certain detailed technical requirements must be met (including certain income, asset, distribution and stock ownership tests) under Code provisions for which, in many cases, there are only limited judicial or administrative interpretations. Although the Company intends to operate so that it will continue to qualify as a REIT, the highly complex nature of the rules governing REITs, the ongoing importance of factual determinations and the possibility of future changes in the Company's circumstances preclude any assurance that the Company will so qualify in any year.

If the Company were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, the Company would be subject to federal income tax (including any applicable alternative minimum tax) on its taxable income at regular corporate rates and would not be allowed a deduction in computing its taxable income for amounts distributed to its stockholders. Moreover, unless entitled to relief under certain statutory provisions, the Company also would be disqualified from treatment as a REIT for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification is lost. This treatment would substantially reduce the net earnings of the Company available for investment or distribution to stockholders because of the additional tax liability to the Company for the years involved. Consequently, distributions to stockholders would be substantially reduced and could be eliminated because of the Company's increased tax liability. In addition, if the Company fails to qualify as a REIT, all distributions to stockholders will be taxable as ordinary income to the extent of current and accumulated earnings and profits, but, subject to certain limitations of the Code, corporate distributees may be eligible for the dividends received deduction. Even if the Company qualifies for and maintains its REIT status, it is subject to certain federal, state and local taxes on its income and property. For example, if the Company has net income from a prohibited transaction, such income will be subject to a 100% tax.

EFFECT OF DISTRIBUTION REQUIREMENTS. To maintain its status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, the Company generally is required each year to distribute to its stockholders at least 95% of its

Page 21

taxable income (determined without regard to the dividends paid deduction and by excluding net capital gains) each year. The Company is also subject to tax at regular corporate rates to the extent that it distributes less than 100% of its taxable income (including net capital gains) each year. In addition, the Company is subject to a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which certain distributions paid by it with respect to any calendar year are less than the sum of 85% of its ordinary income for such calendar year, 95% of its capital gain net income for the calendar year and any amount of such income that was not distributed in prior years. The Company intends to continue to make distributions to its stockholders to comply with the distribution requirement of the Code and to reduce exposure to federal income taxes and the nondeductible excise tax. Differences in timing between the receipt of income and the payment of expenses in arriving at taxable income and the effect of required debt amortization payments could require the Company to borrow funds on a short-term basis to meet the distribution requirements that are necessary to achieve the tax benefits associated with qualifying as a REIT.

DILUTION OF COMMON STOCK. The Company's future growth will depend in large part upon its ability to raise additional capital. If the Company were to raise additional capital through the issuance of equity securities, the interests of holders of common stock could be diluted. Likewise, the Company's Board of Directors is authorized to cause the Company to issue preferred stock of any class or series (with such dividends and voting and other rights as the Board of Directors may determine). Accordingly, the Board of Directors may authorize the issuance of preferred stock with voting, dividend and other similar rights which could be dilutive to or otherwise adversely affect the interests of holders of Common Stock.

REAL ESTATE OWNERSHIP RISKS. The Company is subject to all of the general risks associated with the ownership of real estate, in particular the risk that rental revenue from the properties will not be sufficient to cover all corporate operating expenses and debt service payments on indebtedness incurred by the Company. These risks include adverse changes in general or local economic conditions, changes in supply of or demand for similar or competing properties, changes in interest rates and operating expenses, competition for tenants, changes in market rental rates, inability to lease properties upon termination of existing leases, renewal of leases at lower rental rates and inability to collect rents from tenants due to financial hardship, including bankruptcy. Other risks include changes in tax, real estate, zoning and environmental laws which may have an adverse impact upon the value of real estate, uninsured property liability, property damage or casualty losses and unexpected expenditures for capital improvements or to bring properties into compliance with applicable federal, state and local laws. Acts of God and other factors beyond the control of the Company's management might also adversely affect the Company.

DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL. The Company is dependent on the efforts of its executive officers and key employees. The loss of the services of its executive officers and key employees could have a material adverse effect on the Company's operations.

(1) Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges is calculated by dividing earnings by fixed charges. For this purpose, earnings consist of net income before interest expense. Fixed charges are comprised of interest costs (including capitalized interest) and the amortization of debt issuance costs.

(2) Due to the change in the capital structure caused by the Consolidation (see note 1 to the consolidated financial statements), per share information would not be meaningful for 1993 and therefore has not been included.

(3) The 1994 amount represents distributions paid or declared, as the case may be, after the Consolidation.

(4) 1996 distributions paid per share and 1995 distributions declared per share include a special distribution of $0.23 per share.

ITEM 7: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

GENERAL

Realty Income Corporation, a Maryland corporation ("Realty Income" or the "Company") was organized to operate as an equity real estate

Page 26

investment trust ("REIT"). Realty Income is a fully integrated self- administered real estate company with in-house acquisition, leasing, legal, retail and real estate research, portfolio management and capital markets expertise. As of December 31, 1997, the Company owned a diversified portfolio of 826 retail properties located in 43 states with over 6.3 million square feet of leasable space. Of the 826 properties in the portfolio, 819 are single-tenant properties with the remainder being multi-tenant properties. As of December 31, 1997, 812, or over 99%, of the 819 single-tenant properties were net leased with an average remaining lease term (excluding extension options) of approximately 8.4 years.

The Company's primary business objective is to generate a consistent and predictable level of funds from operations ("FFO") per share and distributions to stockholders. Additionally, the Company generally will seek to increase FFO per share and distributions to stockholders through both active portfolio management and the acquisition of additional properties. The Company also seeks to lower the ratio of distributions to stockholders as a percentage of FFO in order to allow internal cash flow to be used to fund additional acquisitions and for other corporate purposes.

The Company's portfolio management focus includes: (i) contractual rent increases on existing leases; (ii) rental increases at the termination of existing leases when market conditions permit; and
(iii) the active management of the Company's property portfolio, including selective sales of properties. The Company generally pursues the acquisition of additional properties under long-term, net lease agreements with initial contractual base rent which, at the time of acquisition and as a percentage of acquisition costs, is in excess of the Company's estimated cost of capital.

Realty Income adheres to a focused strategy of acquiring freestanding, single-tenant, retail properties leased to regional and national retail chains under long-term, net lease agreements. The Company typically acquires retail store locations, which provides capital to the operators for continued expansion and other corporate purposes. Realty Income's acquisition and investment activities are concentrated in highly specific target markets and focus on middle-market retailers providing goods and services which satisfy basic consumer needs. The Company's net lease agreements generally are for initial terms of 10 to 20 years, require the tenant to pay a minimum monthly rent and property operating expenses (taxes, insurance and maintenance), and provide for future rent increases (typically subject to ceilings) based on increases in the consumer price index or additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenant's gross sales above a specific level.

From 1970 and through December 31, 1997, Realty Income has acquired and leased back to regional and national retail chains 797 properties (including 32 properties that have been sold) and has collected over 98% of the original contractual rent obligation on these properties.

Page 27

Realty Income believes that the long-term ownership of an actively managed, diversified portfolio of retail properties leased under long- term, net lease agreements can produce consistent, predictable income and the potential for long-term share price appreciation. Management believes that the income generated under long-term leases, coupled with the tenant's responsibility for property expenses under the net lease structure, generally produces a more predictable income stream than many other types of real estate portfolios.

Realty Income was organized in the State of Delaware on September 9, 1993 to facilitate the merger, which was effective on August 15, 1994 (the "Consolidation"), of ten private and 15 public real estate limited partnerships (the "Partnerships") with and into Realty Income. In May 1997, the Company was reincorporated as a Maryland corporation. From the date of the Consolidation through August 17, 1995, the Company's day-to-day affairs were managed by R.I.C. Advisor, Inc. (the "Advisor") which provided advice and assistance regarding acquisitions of properties by the Company and performed the day-to-day management of the Company's properties and business. On August 17, 1995, the Advisor was merged with and into Realty Income (the "Merger") and the company became self-administered and self-managed.

Other Information

Thomas A. Lewis succeeded William E. Clark as Chief Executive Officer of the Company in May 1997. Mr. Lewis has been an officer of the Company since 1987 and has served as the Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors since 1994. Mr. Clark has continued as Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company.

The Company's common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "O" and its central index key ("CIK") number is 726728.

The Company anticipates that the year 2000 date issue will not adversely affect its current software or computers and will not have a material impact its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or liquidity.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Reserves

Realty Income was organized for the purpose of operating as an equity REIT which acquires and leases properties and distributes to stockholders, in the form of monthly cash distributions, a substantial portion of its net cash flow generated from leases on its retail properties. The Company intends to retain an appropriate amount of cash as working capital reserves. At December 31, 1997, the Company had cash and cash equivalents totaling $2.1 million.

Page 28

Management believes that the Company's cash and cash equivalents on hand, cash provided from operating activities and borrowing capacity are sufficient to meet its liquidity needs for the foreseeable future, except that the Company will require additional sources of capital to fund property acquisitions.

Capital Funding

Realty Income has a $150 million, three-year revolving, unsecured acquisition credit facility that expires in December 2000. The credit facility currently bears interest at 0.85% over the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and offers the Company other interest rate options. As of March 16, 1998, $138.0 million of borrowing capacity was available to the Company under the acquisition credit facility. At that time, the outstanding balance was $12.0 million with an effective interest rate of 6.6%. This credit facility has been and is expected to be used to acquire additional retail properties leased to national and regional retail chains under long term lease agreements. Any additional borrowings will increase the Company's exposure to interest rate risk.

Realty Income expects to meet its long-term capital needs for the acquisition of properties through the issuance of public or private debt or equity. In August 1997, the Company filed a universal shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission covering up to $300 million in value of common stock, preferred stock and/or debt securities. Approximately $91.9 million in value of common stock and debt securities has been issued under the universal shelf registration statement through March 4, 1998.

On February 23, 1998, Realty Income issued 751,174 shares of common stock at a net price to the Company of $25.295 per share to a unit investment trust. The net proceeds were used to repay borrowings of $19.0 million under the acquisition credit facility.

On October 15, 1997, Realty Income issued 2,700,000 shares of common stock at a price of $27.00 per share. The net proceeds were used to repay borrowings of $62.6 million under the acquisition credit facility and to acquire properties. These borrowings under the acquisition credit facility were used to acquire properties during June 1997 through September 1997.

On May 6, 1997, Realty Income issued $110 million of 7.75% notes due May 2007 (the "Notes"). The Notes were sold at 99.929% of par for a yield of 7.76%. After taking into effect the gain of $1.1 million realized on the treasury interest rate lock agreement, which is described in the next paragraph, the effective interest rate on the Notes to the Company is 7.62%. The net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes were used to repay $93.7 million of outstanding borrowings under the Company's credit facility and to acquire properties. Interest on the Notes is payable semiannually each May and November.

Page 29

Currently, there is no formal trading market for the Notes and the Company has not listed and does not intend to list the Notes on any securities exchange.

In December 1996, the Company entered into a treasury interest rate lock agreement to hedge against the possibility of rising interest rates. Under the terms of the interest rate lock agreement, the Company was to receive or make a payment based on the differential between a specified interest rate, 6.537%, and the actual 10-year treasury interest rate on notional principal of $90 million, at the end of six months. Based on the 10-year treasury interest rate at May 1, 1997 (the interest rate pricing date), the Company realized a $1.1 million gain on the agreement, which was received in June 1997. The gain on the agreement is being amortized over 10 years (the life of the Notes) as a yield adjustment to interest expense.

The Company received investment grade corporate credit ratings from Duff & Phelps Rating Company, Moody's Investor Service, Inc., and Standard & Poor's Rating Group in December 1996. Currently, Duff & Phelps has assigned a rating of BBB, Moody's has assigned a rating of Baa3, and Standard & Poor's has assigned a rating of BBB- to the Company's senior debt. These ratings are subject to change based upon, among other things, the Company's results of operations and financial condition.

Property Acquisitions

During 1997, Realty Income acquired 96 retail properties located in 27 states for $139.2 million (which excludes the estimated unfunded development costs of $2.9 million on properties under construction at December 31, 1997) and selectively sold ten properties, increasing the number of properties in its portfolio by 11.6% to 826 from 740 at December 31, 1996. During 1997, the Company also invested $3.1 million in development properties acquired in 1996 and $53,000 in five existing properties in its portfolio. The 96 properties acquired will contain approximately 1.1 million leasable square feet and are 100% leased under net leases, with an average initial lease term of 14.4 years. The weighted average annual unleveraged return on the cost of the 96 properties (including the estimated unfunded development cost of the properties under development) is estimated to be 10.4%, computed as estimated contractual net operating income (which in the case of a net leased property is equal to the base rent or, in the case of properties under construction, the estimated base rent under the lease) for the first year of each lease, divided by total acquisition and estimated development costs. Since it is possible that a tenant could default on the payment of contractual rent, no assurance can be given that the actual return on the cost of the 96 properties acquired in 1997 will not differ from the foregoing percentage.

Of the properties acquired during 1997, 88 were occupied as of February 28, 1998 and the remaining properties were pre-leased and

Page 30

under construction pursuant to contracts under which the tenant has agreed to develop the properties (with development costs funded by the Company) and to begin paying rent when the premises open for business. All of the properties acquired in 1997, including the properties under development, are leased with initial terms of nine to 20 years.

The following table summarized Realty Income's 1997 acquisition activity by quarter.

Other Information

As a result of the Merger in August 1995, the Company assumed a defined benefit pension plan (the "Plan") covering substantially all of the employees of the Advisor. The board of directors of the Advisor froze the Plan effective May 31, 1995 and no additional employees were entitled to enter the Plan. The Plan was terminated on January 2, 1996 and final disbursement of the Plan's assets occurred on February 24, 1997.

FUNDS FROM OPERATIONS ("FFO")

FFO for 1997 increased by $4.63 million or 9.7% to $52.35 million versus $47.72 million during 1996. FFO during 1995 was $40.4 million.

Realty Income defines FFO as net income before gain on sales of properties, plus provision for impairment losses, plus depreciation and amortization. In accordance with the recommendations of the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), amortization of deferred financing costs are not added back to net income to calculate FFO. Amortization of financing costs are included in interest expense in the consolidated statements of income.

The following is a reconciliation of net income to FFO, and information regarding distributions paid and diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding for 1997, 1996 and 1995 (dollars in thousands, except per share data):

Management considers FFO to be an appropriate measure of the performance of an equity REIT. FFO is used by financial analysts in evaluating REITs and can be one measure of a REIT's ability to make cash distribution payments. Presentation of this information provides the reader with an additional measure to compare the performance of different REITs, although it should be noted that not all REITs calculate FFO the same way so comparisons with such REITs may not be meaningful.

FFO is 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 the Company's performance or to cash flows from operating, investing, and financing activities as a measure of liquidity or ability to make cash distributions or to pay debt service.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Comparison of 1997 to 1996

Rental revenue was $67.6 million for 1997 versus $56.8 million for 1996, an increase of $10.8 million. The increase in rental revenue was primarily due to the acquisition of 96 properties during 1997 and 62 properties during 1996. These properties generated revenue of $11.4 million in 1997 compared to $915,000 in 1996, an increase of $10.5 million. At January 1, 1998, annualized contractual lease payments on the properties acquired in 1996 and 1997 are approximately $20.2 million (excluding estimated rent from nine properties under development and any percentage rents).

Of the 826 properties in the portfolio as of December 31, 1997, 819 are single-tenant properties with the remaining properties being multi-tenant properties. Of the 819 single-tenant properties, 812, or over 99%, were net leased with an average remaining lease term (excluding extension options) of approximately 8.4 years. At December 31, 1997, 812 of the Company's 819 single tenant properties had leases which provide for increases in rents through: (i) base rent increases tied to a consumer price index with adjustment ceilings; (ii) overage rent based on a percentage of the tenants' gross sales or (iii) fixed increases. Some leases contain more than one of these clauses. Percentage rent, which is included in rental revenue, was $1.8 million during 1997 and $1.7 million in 1996.

Same store rents generated on 667 properties owned during all of both 1997 and 1996 increased by $767,000 or 1.4%, to $55.74 million from $54.97 million.

At December 31, 1997, the Company had eight properties (one of which is a multi-tenant property) that were not under lease as compared to nine at December 31, 1996 and four at December 31, 1995. At December 31, 1997, 818, or over 99%, of the 826 properties in the portfolio were under lease agreements with third party tenants.

Interest and other revenue during 1997 and 1996 totaled $284,000 and $180,000, respectively, an increase of $104,000. The increase in 1997 was primarily due to interest earned on Note proceeds in excess of the $93.7 million used to payoff the credit facility in May 1997. These proceeds were invested in new properties during May and June 1997.

Depreciation and amortization was $18.6 million in 1997 versus $16.4 million in 1996. The increase in 1997 was primarily due to depreciation of the properties acquired in 1996 and 1997.

General and administrative expenses increased by $256,000 to $5.44 million in 1997 versus $5.18 million in 1996. The increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily due to an increase in property acquisition expenses and employee costs. General and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenue decreased to 8.0% in 1997 as compared to 9.1% in 1996. During 1997, the Company increased its number of employees to 47 from 35. The majority of the new employees work primarily on new property acquisitions.

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, property inspections and title search fees. At December 31, 1997, eight properties were available for lease as compared to nine at December 31, 1996.

Property expenses were $1.79 million in 1997 and $1.64 million in 1996, an increase of $145,000. The increase in property expenses was primarily attributable to costs of the environmental insurance obtained in December 1996. In 1997, environmental insurance expense totaled $85,000 and based upon the 826 properties in the portfolio at December 31, 1997, the costs of environmental insurance is anticipated

Page 35

to be approximately $90,000 during 1998. The limit of the policy is $10 million for each loss and $20 million in the aggregate, with a $100,000 deductible. There is a sub-limit on properties with underground storage tanks of $1 million per occurrence and $5 million in the aggregate, with a deductible of $25,000.

Interest expense in 1997 increased by $5.9 million to $8.23 million, as compared to $2.37 million in 1996. The following is a summary of the five components of interest expense for 1997 and 1996 (dollars in thousands):

Interest on outstanding loans and notes was $5.9 million higher in 1997 than in 1996, due to an increase in the average outstanding balances and a higher average interest rate. The higher average interest rate was due to interest on the Notes issued in May 1997. During 1997, the average outstanding balances and interest rate (after taking into effect amortization of the gain on the treasury lock agreement) on the Notes and credit facility were $108.4 million and 7.35% as compared to $30.7 million and 6.96% during 1996. During 1997, the credit facility's average interest rate was 6.82% and average outstanding balance was $36.1 million.

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. In 1997, a $165,000 charge was taken to reduce the net carrying value on three properties because they became held for sale. One of these properties was sold in 1997 and another in January 1998. In 1996, a $579,000 charge was taken to reduce the net carrying value on four properties because they became held for sale. Three of these properties have been sold.

During 1997, the Company sold ten properties (six restaurants, two child care centers, one automotive parts store and one multi-tenant location) for a total of $4.4 million and recorded a gain of $1.1 million. During 1996, the Company sold seven properties (five restaurants and two multi-tenant locations) for $4.4 million and recognized a gain of $1.5 million.

Page 36

In 1997, the Company had net income of $34.77 million versus $32.22 million in 1996. The $2.55 million increase in net income is primarily due to the increase in rental revenue from properties acquired in 1996 and 1997 of $10.5 million and an increase in same store rents on 667 properties owned during both periods of $767,000, which were partially offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization, general and administrative, and interest expense totaling $8.3 million.

Comparison of 1996 to 1995

Rental revenue was $56.8 million for 1996 versus $51.2 million for 1995, an increase of $5.6 million. The increase in rental revenue was primarily due to the acquisition of 124 properties from December 1994 through December 1996. These properties generated revenue in 1996 and 1995 of $8.8 million and $3.8 million, respectively, an increase of $5.0 million.

Of the 740 properties in the portfolio as of December 31, 1996, 732 are single-tenant properties with the remaining properties being multi-tenant properties. Of the 732 single-tenant properties, 723, or approximately 99%, had leases which provide for increases in rents through: (i) base rent increases tied to a consumer price index with adjustment ceilings; (ii) overage rent based on a percentage of the tenants' gross sales or (iii) fixed increases. Some leases contain more than one of these clauses. Percentage rent, which is included in rental revenue, was $1.7 million during 1996 and $1.6 million in 1995.

Same store rents generated on 619 properties owned during all of both 1996 and 1995 increased by $871,000, or 1.9%, to $48.0 million from $47.1 million.

At December 31, 1996, the Company had nine properties that were not under lease as compared to four at December 31, 1995. At December 31, 1996, 731, or approximately 99%, of the 740 properties in the portfolio were under lease agreements with third party tenants.

Interest and other revenue during 1996 and 1995 totaled $180,000 and $370,000, respectively. The decrease of $190,000 was due to lower average cash and cash equivalent balances in 1996.

Depreciation and amortization was $16.4 million in 1996 versus $14.8 million in 1995. The increase in 1996 was primarily due to depreciation of properties acquired during 1995 and 1996 and amortization of goodwill recorded in connection with the Merger of the Advisor.

General and administrative expenses and advisor fees decreased by $1.7 million to $5.2 million in 1996 versus $6.9 million in 1995. General and administrative expenses were $5.2 million in 1996 versus $3.2 million in 1995 and advisor fees of $3.7 million in 1995. The $2.0 million increase in general and administrative expenses was primarily

Page 37

due to the Merger of the Advisor. Subsequent to the Merger, the Company commenced paying for management, accounting systems, office facilities, professional and support personnel expenses (i.e. costs of being self-administered). Prior to the Merger such costs were the responsibility of the Advisor. General and administrative expenses and advisor fees as a percentage of revenue decreased to 9.1% in 1996 as compared to 13.3% in 1995.

Property expenses were $1.6 million in 1996 and 1995. 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, property inspections and title search fees. At December 31, 1996, nine properties were available for lease as compared to four at December 31, 1995.

Interest expense in 1996 decreased by $275,000 to $2.37 million, as compared to $2.64 million in 1995. The following is a summary of the four components of interest expense for 1996 and 1995 (dollars in thousands):

Interest on outstanding loans and notes during 1996 was $266,000 lower than in 1995, due to a decrease in the average outstanding balances and lower average interest rates on the credit facility and the notes issued as part of the Consolidation. During 1996, the average outstanding balances and interest rate on the notes and credit facility were $30.7 million and 6.96% as compared to $31.3 million and 7.68% during 1995.

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. In 1996, a $579,000 charge was taken to reduce the net carrying value on four properties because they became held for sale. Three of these properties have been sold. No charge was recorded for an impairment loss in 1995.

During 1996, the Company sold seven properties (five restaurants and two multi-tenant locations) for a total of $4.4 million and recorded a gain of $1.5 million. During 1995, the Company sold three properties (two child care centers and a multi-tenant location) for $617,000 and recognized a gain of $18,000.

In 1996, the Company had net income of $32.2 million versus $25.6 million in 1995. The $6.6 million increase in net income is primarily due to an increase in rental revenue from 124 properties acquired from December 1994 through December 1996 of $5.0 million, an increase in the net gain on sales of properties of $1.4 million and a net decrease in advisor fees, general and administrative expenses of $1.7 million, offset by an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $1.6 million.

IMPACT OF INFLATION

Tenant leases generally provide for limited increases in rent as a result of increases in the tenant's sales volumes and/or increases in the consumer price index. Management expects that inflation will cause these lease provisions to result in increases in rent over time. However, 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.

Over 98% of the properties in the portfolio are leased to tenants under net leases in which the tenant is responsible for property costs and expenses. These features in the leases reduce the Company's exposure to rising property expenses due to inflation.

Inflation and increased costs may have an adverse impact on the tenants if increases in the tenant's operating expenses exceed increases in revenue.

IMPACT OF ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" ("Statement No. 130"). Statement No. 130 establishes standards for reporting and display of comprehensive income and its components (revenue, expenses, gains and losses) in a full set of general purpose financial statements, and is effective for periods beginning after December 15, 1997.

In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 131, "Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("Statement No. 131"). Statement No. 131 establishes standards for the way that

Page 39

public business enterprises report selected information about operating segments in interim financial reports issued to shareholders. It also establishes standards for periods beginning after December 15, 1997.

Management believes that the adoption of the aforementioned statements will not have a material effect on the manner and nature of disclosures currently made by the Company.

Independent Auditors' Report

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Realty Income Corporation:

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Realty Income Corporation and subsidiaries as listed in the accompanying table of contents. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited the financial statement schedule III listed in the accompanying table of contents. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Realty Income Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 1997, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule III, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.

REALTY INCOME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995

1. Organization and Operation

Realty Income Corporation (the "Company") was organized in the State of Delaware in September 1993 to facilitate the merger, which was effected on August 15, 1994 (the "Consolidation"), of 10 private and 15 public real estate limited partnerships with and into the Company. In August 1995, the Company became self-administered and self-managed after acquiring R.I.C. Advisor, Inc. (the "Advisor"). In May 1997, the Company reincorporated as a Maryland corporation pursuant to a merger of the Company into a wholly-owned Maryland subsidiary and the conversion of each outstanding share of common stock of the Company into one share of common stock of the surviving corporation. The Company invests in commercial retail real estate and has elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT"). As of December 31, 1997, the Company owned 826 properties in 43 states.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Procedures

Principles of Consolidation - The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and partnerships more than 50 percent owned (subsidiaries) after elimination of all material intercompany balances and transactions.

Cash Equivalents - The Company considers all short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to cash and have an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase to be cash equivalents.

Depreciation and Amortization - Depreciation of buildings and improvements, and amortization of goodwill are computed using the straight-line method over an estimated useful life of 25 years.

Leases - All leases are accounted for as operating leases. Under this method, lease payments are recognized as revenue over the term of the lease on a straight-line basis.

Federal Income Taxes - The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Management believes the Company has qualified and continues to qualify as a REIT and therefore will be permitted to deduct distributions paid to its stockholders, eliminating the federal taxation of income represented by such distributions at the Company's level. Accordingly, no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

Distributions Paid and Payable - For the year ended December 31, 1997, cash distributions of $1.8925 per share were paid. The 1997 distributions consisted of eleven monthly distributions of $0.1575 per share and one monthly distribution of $0.16 per share. As of December 31, 1997, a distribution of $0.16 per share was declared and payable.

For the year ended December 31, 1996, cash distributions of $2.0925 per share were paid. The 1996 distributions consisted of a special distribution of $0.23 per share, eleven monthly distributions of $0.155 per share and one distribution of $0.1575 per share.

For the year ended December 31, 1995, cash distributions of $1.825 per share were paid. The 1995 distributions consisted of seven monthly distributions of $0.15 per share and five monthly distributions of $0.155 per share. As of December 31, 1995, three distributions totaling $0.54 per share were declared and payable.

The following presents the federal income tax characterization of distributions paid or deemed to be paid to stockholders for the years ended December 31:

                             1997            1996           1995
                            ------          ------         ------
Ordinary Income             $1.794          $1.691         $1.876
Return of Capital            0.099           0.257          0.093
                            ------          ------         ------
Totals                      $1.893          $1.948         $1.969
                            ======          ======         ======

For federal income tax purposes, a portion of the distributions payable at December 31, 1995, in the amount of $0.144 per share, were deemed to be paid in 1995. This amount is included in the $1.876 per share taxable as ordinary income in 1995 and represents the remaining portion of taxable earnings and profits which were assumed by the Company in the merger with the Advisor.

Provision for Impairment Losses - The Company reviews long-lived assets, including goodwill, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Generally, a provision is made for impairment loss if estimated future operating cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) over a long-term holding period plus estimated disposition proceeds (undiscounted) are less than the current book value. If a property is held for sale, it is carried at the lower of cost or estimated fair value, less costs to sell. For the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996, provisions for impairment losses of

Page 50

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

$165,000 and $579,000, respectively, were charged to operations to reduce the net carrying value of three properties held for sale in 1997 and four properties held for sale in 1996. There was no provision for impairment losses in 1995.

Net Income Per Share - The Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, "Earnings per Share" ("SFAS No. 128") effective for the period ended December 31, 1997. SFAS No. 128 simplifies the standards for computing earnings per share and makes them comparable to international earnings per share standards. All prior period net income per share data presented were restated to conform to SFAS No. 128.

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

The following is a reconciliation of the denominator of the basic net income per share computation to the denominator of the diluted net income per share computation (net income was available to common shareholders for all periods presented):

                                     1997         1996         1995

                                  ==========   ==========   ==========

Stock Option Plan - The Company accounts for its stock option plan in accordance with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees", and related interpretations. As such, compensation expense would be recorded on the date of grant only if the current market price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" ("SFAS No. 123"), permits entities to recognize as expense over the vesting period the fair value of all stock-based awards on the date of grant. Alternatively, SFAS No. 123 allows entities to continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share disclosures for employee stock

Page 51

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)

option grants made in 1995 and future years as if the fair-value-based method defined in SFAS No. 123 had been applied. The Company has elected to continue to apply the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25 and provide the pro forma disclosure provisions of SFAS No. 123.

Derivative Financial Instrument - The Company had an interest rate treasury lock agreement to hedge the effect of interest rate fluctuations. This instrument met the requirement for hedge accounting, including a high correlation to a specific transaction. Accordingly, the amount received under the terms of the agreement is recognized in income when interest expense related to the hedge item is recognized.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

3. Credit Facility Available for Acquisitions

The Company has a $150 million, three-year, revolving, unsecured acquisition credit facility that expires in December 2000. The credit facility is from The Bank of New York, as agent, and several U.S. and non-U.S. banks. In November 1997, the Company obtained a $10 million unsecured line of credit with The Bank of New York, which was repaid and canceled in January 1998. As of December 31, 1997 and 1996, the outstanding balances on the credit facility and line of credit were $22.6 million and $70.0 million, respectively, with an effective interest rate of approximately 6.66% and 6.85%, respectively.

The credit facility currently bears interest at 0.85% over the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") and offers the Company other interest rate options. A facility fee of 0.15%, per annum, accrues on the total commitment of the credit facility.

The credit facility is subject to various leverage and interest coverage ratio limitations. The Company is and has been in compliance with these limitations.

In 1997, 1996 and 1995, interest of $168,000, $150,000 and $217,000, respectively, was capitalized on properties under construction.

4. Notes Payable

On May 6, 1997, Realty Income issued $110 million of 7.75% unsecured notes due May 2007 (the "Notes"). The Notes were sold at 99.929% of par for a yield of 7.76%. After taking into effect the $1.1 million

Page 52

4. Notes Payable (continued)

gain realized on the treasury interest rate lock agreement (see note
5), the effective interest rate to the Company on the Notes is 7.62%. The net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes were used to repay $93.7 million of outstanding borrowings under the Company's credit facility and to acquire properties. Interest on the Notes is payable semiannually each May and November. Interest incurred on the Notes for the year ended December 31, 1997 was $5.5 million. Currently, there is no formal trading market for the Notes and the Company has not and does not intend to list the Notes on any securities exchange.

On March 29, 1996, the Company redeemed, at par, the $12.6 million principal amount of notes issued at the time of the Consolidation to investors in the partnerships. Interest incurred on the notes for the years ended December 31, 1996 and 1995 was $217,000 and $997,000, respectively.

5. Derivative Financial Instrument

In December 1996, the Company entered into a treasury interest rate lock agreement to hedge against rising interest rates applicable to the Notes (see note 4). Under the terms of the interest rate lock agreement, the Company was to receive or make a payment based on the differential between a specified interest rate (6.537%) and the actual 10-year treasury interest rate on notional principal amount of $90 million, at the end of six months. Based on the 10-year treasury interest rate at May 1, 1997 (the interest rate pricing date), the Company realized a $1.1 million gain on the agreement, which was received in June 1997. The gain on the agreement is being amortized over 10 years (the life of the Notes) as a yield adjustment to interest expense. The Company had only limited involvement with this single derivative financial instrument and did not use it for trading purposes.

6. Common Stock Offerings

A. In February 1998, the Company issued 751,174 shares of common stock to a unit investment trust at a net price to the Company of $25.295 per share. The net proceeds of $19.0 million were be used to repay borrowings under the credit facility.

B. In October 1997, the Company issued 2.7 million shares of common stock at a price of $27.00 per share. The net proceeds of $68.7 million were used to repay borrowings of $62.6 million under the credit facility and to acquire properties.

C. In November 1995, the Company issued 2.54 million shares of common stock at a price of $19.625 per share. Substantially all of the net proceeds of $46.6 million were used to repay borrowings under the credit facility.

Page 53

7. Operating Leases

A. General - At December 31, 1997, the Company owned 826 properties in 43 states. Of the Company's properties, 819 are single-tenant and the remainder are multi-tenant. At December 31, 1997, eight properties were vacant and available for lease or sale.

Substantially all leases are net leases whereby the tenant pays property taxes and assessments, maintains the interior and exterior of the building, and carries insurance coverage for public liability, property damage, fire, and extended coverage. The Company's net lease agreements are generally for initial terms of 10 to 20 years, require the tenant to pay a minimum monthly rent and property operating expenses (taxes, insurance and maintenance), and provide for future rent increases (typically subject to ceilings) based on increases in the consumer price index or additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenant's gross sales above a specified level. Percentage rent for 1997, 1996 and 1995 was $1.8 million, $1.7 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

At December 31, 1997, minimum annual rents to be received on the operating leases are as follows (dollars in thousands):

                                     ========

B. Major Tenants - The following schedule presents rental income, including percentage rents, from tenants representing more than 10% of the Company's total revenue for at least one of the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 or 1995 (dollars in thousands):

       Tenants                          1997      1996      1995
=========================             =======   =======   =======

Golden Corral Corporation               6,899     7,017     6,550

8. Property Acquisitions

During 1997, the Company acquired 96 retail properties located in 27 states for $142.3 million (excluding the estimated unfunded development costs of $2.9 million on properties under construction at

Page 54

8. Property Acquisitions (continued)

December 31, 1997). The 96 properties are 100% leased under net leases, with an average initial lease term of 14.4 years. During 1996, the Company acquired 62 retail properties located in 22 states for $55.5 million, with an average initial lease term of 11.7 years.

9. Net Gain on Sales of Properties

In 1997, the Company sold ten properties (six restaurants, one automotive parts store, one multi-tenant and two child care centers) for a total of $4.4 million and recognized a gain of $1.1 million. In 1996, the Company sold seven properties (five restaurants and two multi-tenant centers) for a total of $4.4 million and recognized a gain of $1.5 million. In 1995, the Company sold three properties (one multi-tenant and two childcare centers) for a total of $617,000 and recognized a net gain of $18,000.

10. The Merger of R.I.C. Advisor, Inc.

On August 17, 1995, the Company merged with the Advisor and issued 990,704 shares of the Company's common stock valued at approximately $21.2 million (the "Merger"). The Merger was accounted for using the purchase method. Accordingly, the purchase price was allocated to assets acquired based on their estimated fair values. This treatment resulted in approximately $22.9 million of goodwill. Amortization of goodwill for the years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995 was $916,000, $916,000 and $340,000, respectively.

11. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Management of the Company believes that the carrying values reflected in the balance sheets at December 31, 1997 and 1996 reasonably approximate the fair values for cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, due from affiliates and all liabilities. In making such assessments, the Company utilized estimates and quoted market prices. See note 5 for a discussion of the derivative financial instrument held at December 31, 1996.

Page 55

12. Supplemental Disclosure of Cash Flow Information

Interest paid during 1997, 1996 and 1995 was $6.9 million, $2.0 million and $2.2 million, respectively.

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

A. In 1997, the acquisition of three properties resulted in the following (dollars in thousands):

Increases in:
  Land                                               $1,724
  Building                                              227
  Other liabilities                                   1,951

B. The Merger of the Advisor into the Company in August 1995 resulted in the following (dollars in thousands):

Increases in:
  Other assets                                    $ (1,143)
  Goodwill                                         (21,184)

                                                  --------
  Cash acquired from Merger                       $    647
                                                  ========

In 1995, other assets of $95,000 were reclassified to goodwill. Common stock retired after the Merger includes par value of common stock and paid in capital in excess of par value of $58,000 and $1,172,000, respectively.

C. In 1996 and 1995, pursuant to the assumption of the defined benefit pension plan by the Company (see note 14), the Company recorded a due from affiliate and a liability (included in other liabilities) of $73,000 and $493,000, respectively. This represents the amount of the increase in the liability to the plan, of which the Company is indemnified by the former shareholders of the Advisor.

13. Related Party Transactions

The Company paid the Advisor an advisory fee of $3.7 million for the period from January 1, 1995 through August 17, 1995. On August 17, 1995, the Advisor was merged into the Company and the agreement was terminated (see note 10).

Page 56

14. Employee Benefit Plan

A. As a result of the Merger, the Company assumed a defined benefit pension plan (the "Plan") covering substantially all of its employees. The board of directors of the Advisor froze the Plan effective May 31, 1995 and no additional employees were entitled to enter the Plan. The Plan was terminated on January 2, 1996 and final disbursement of the Plan's assets occurred on February 24, 1997.

At December 31, 1996, the benefit obligation in excess of plan assets of approximately $2.3 million is included in other liabilities in the accompanying balance sheet. This amount was paid in February 1997.

In connection with the Merger, the Company assumed a benefit obligation of $1.9 million. The Merger agreement provides for indemnification by the former shareholders of the Advisor with respect to increases in the benefit obligation. A receivable from the Advisor's former shareholders has been recorded as of December 31, 1997 and 1996 for $348,000 and $383,000, respectively, and is included as due from affiliates in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

B. In August 1996, the Company initiated a 401(k) plan. Under the 401(k) plan, employees may elect to make contributions to the plan, and the Company matches 50% of such contributions up to 6% of each participant's compensation.

15. Stock Incentive Plan

In September 1993, the board of directors of the Company approved a stock incentive plan (the "Stock Plan") designed to attract and retain directors, officers and employees of the Company by enabling such individuals to participate in the ownership of the Company. The Stock Plan authorizes the purchase of up to 500,000 shares of common stock and provides for the award (subject to ownership limitations) of a broad variety of stock-based compensation alternatives such as nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock and performance awards.

Stock options are granted with an exercise price equal to the underlying stock's fair market value at the date of grant. Stock options expire 10 years from the date they are granted and vest over service periods of three, four and five years. At December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, options outstanding totaled 139,500, 73,000 and 30,000, respectively. Prior to December 31, 1997, 189,700 stock options and 15,800 restricted shares of common stock had been granted under the Stock Plan. Of the stock options granted, 10,489 had been exercised and 39,711 had been canceled. At December 31, 1997, there were 294,500 additional shares available for grant under the Stock Plan.

The per share weighted-average fair value of stock options granted during 1997 and 1996 was $2.29 on the date of grant using the Binomial

15. Stock Incentive Plan (continued)

option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
1997 - expected dividend yield 9.92%, risk-free interest rate of 6.5%, volatility of 18.5% and an expected life of 10 years; 1996 - expected dividend yield 9.71%, risk-free interest rate of 6.7%, volatility of 17.4% and an expected life of 10 years. No stock options were granted during 1995.

The Company applies APB Opinion No. 25 in accounting for its Stock Plan and, accordingly, no compensation cost has been recognized for its stock options in the consolidated financial statements. Had the Company determined compensation cost based on the fair value at the grant date for its stock options under SFAS No. 123, the Company's net income would have been reduced to the pro-forma amounts indicated below:

16. Commitments and Contingencies

In the ordinary course of its business, the Company is a party to various legal actions which the Company believes are routine in nature and incidental to the operation of the business of the Company. The Company believes that the outcome of the proceedings will not have a material adverse effect upon its consolidated operations, financial position or liquidity.

AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT

AMENDED AND RESTATED REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT, dated as of November 29, 1994 as amended and restated as of December 30, 1997 (this "Agreement"), among Realty Income Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the "Company"), each of the banks identified on the signature pages hereof (each, a "Bank" and, collectively, the "Banks") and The Bank of New York, as Agent for the Banks (the "Agent") and as the Swing Line Bank with respect to Swing Line Advances (as defined below).

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Company has requested the Banks to lend up to $150,000,000, subject to increase as provided herein, to the Company on a revolving basis for the acquisition of property in the ordinary course of the Company's business, including related costs and expenses and for the payment of fees and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and up to $15,000,000 in Swing Line Advances (as defined herein) for the purposes stated above and for working capital.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

DEFINITIONS

Section 1.01. Definitions.

(a) Terms Generally. The definitions ascribed to terms in this Section 1.01 and elsewhere in this Agreement shall apply equally to both the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words "include", "includes" and "including" shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase "without limitation". The words "hereby", "herein", "hereof", "hereunder" and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole (including any exhibits and schedules hereto) and not merely to the specific section, paragraph or clause in which such word appears. All references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be deemed references to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement unless the context shall otherwise require. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all references to "dollars" or "$" shall be deemed references to the lawful money of the United States of America.

Page 1

(b) Accounting Terms. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time; provided, however, that, for purposes of determining compliance with any covenant set forth in Article VII which requires financial computations, such terms shall be construed in accordance with GAAP as in effect on the Effective Date applied on a basis consistent with the construction thereof applied in preparing the Company's audited financial statements referred to in Section 5.01(h). In the event there shall occur a change in GAAP which but for the foregoing proviso would affect the computation used to determine compliance with any covenant set forth in Article VII which requires financial computations, the Company and the Banks agree to negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon an amendment to this Agreement that will permit compliance with such covenant to be determined by reference to GAAP as so changed while affording the Banks the protection afforded by such covenant prior to such change (it being understood, however, that such covenant shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its existing terms pending the execution by the Company and the Banks of any such amendment).

(c) Other Terms. The following terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them below or in the Sections of this Agreement indicated below:

"ABR Loans" shall mean Loans which bear interest at a rate based upon the Base Rate and in the manner set forth in Section 3.02.

Prior to the Termination Date, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon the request of the Company, and upon the satisfaction by the Company or the waiver by each of the Banks of each of the conditions precedent contained in Section 6.02, each of the Banks, severally and not jointly with the other Banks, agrees to make revolving credit loans (collectively, "Pro Rata Loans") and, to the extent offered by such Bank and accepted by the Company, competitive rate loans (collectively, "Competitive Loans" and, together with the Pro Rata Loans, the "Loans") to the Company from time to time in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed its Commitment; provided, however, that the sum of (i) aggregate outstanding Loans and (ii) aggregate outstanding Swing Line Advances may not exceed the Total Commitment.

Section 2.02. Procedure for Pro Rata Loans.

(a) The Company may borrow Pro Rata Loans by delivering a written Pro Rata Loan Request to the Agent on or before 5:00 P.M., New York time, one Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date therefor, in the case of ABR Loans, or on the date not less than three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date therefor, in the case of Eurodollar Pro Rata Loans. ABR Loans shall be in the minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof. Eurodollar Pro Rata Loans shall be in the minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or in integral multiples

(b) Upon receipt of any Pro Rata Loan Request from the Company, the Agent shall forthwith give notice to each Bank of the substance thereof. Not later than 2:00 P.M., New York time, on the Borrowing Date specified in such Pro Rata Loan Request, each Bank shall make available to the Agent in immediately available funds at the office of the Agent at its address set forth on the signature pages hereof, such Bank's Pro Rata Share of the requested Pro Rata Loans.

(c) Upon receipt by the Agent of funds and satisfaction by the Company or waiver by each of the Banks of each of the conditions precedent contained in Section 6.02, the Agent shall disburse to the Company on the requested Borrowing Date the Pro Rata Loans requested in such Pro Rata Loan Request. The Agent may, but shall not be required to, advance on behalf of any Bank such Bank's Pro Rata Share of the Pro Rata Loans on a Borrowing Date unless such Bank shall have notified the Agent prior to such Borrowing Date that it does not intend to make available its Pro Rata Share of such Loans on such date (it being understood that no action or inaction by the Agent regarding such an advance shall affect the rights of the Company with respect to any non-performing Bank). If the Agent makes such advance, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from the Bank on whose behalf such advance was made, and if such Bank does not pay the Agent the amount of such advance on demand, the Company shall promptly repay such amount to the Agent. Until such amount is repaid to the Agent by such Bank or the Company, such advance shall be deemed for all purposes to be a Pro Rata Loan made by the Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to recover from the Bank or the Company, as the case may be, interest on the amount advanced by it for each day from the Borrowing Date therefor until repaid to the Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of the Bank, the Federal Funds Rate, for the three-day period beginning on the Borrowing Date, and the applicable rate on the Pro Rata Loans made on the Borrowing Date for the period beginning on the fourth day after the Borrowing Date, and (ii) in the case of the Company, the applicable rate on the Pro Rata Loans made on the Borrowing Date.

Each Bank is authorized to indicate upon the grid attached to its Pro Rata Note all Pro Rata Loans made by it pursuant to this Agreement, interest elections and payments of principal and interest thereon. Such notations shall be presumptive as to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Pro Rata Loans made by such Bank, and interest due thereon, but the failure by any Bank to make such notations or the inaccuracy or incompleteness of any such notations shall not affect the obligations of the Company hereunder or under the Pro Rata Notes.

Promptly upon receipt of any Net Cash Proceeds, other than pursuant to any Excluded Asset Sales, the Company shall deliver to the Agent a certificate signed by the chief financial officer of the Company, which shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, setting forth the amount of the gross cash proceeds received and the items deducted therefrom in reasonable detail in order to confirm the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds and also setting forth the Company's year-to-date asset sales.

Section 2.08. Procedure for Competitive Loans. (a) Prior to the Termination Date, the Company may request that the Banks make offers to make Competitive Loans in dollars on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; provided, however, that (i) the aggregate principal amount of Competitive Loans that may be borrowed on any Borrowing Date may not exceed the Available Commitment (after giving effect to any Loans to be repaid or prepaid on such Borrowing Date and any other Loans to be made on such Borrowing Date), (ii) the aggregate amount of Competitive Loans outstanding on any day may not exceed 50% of the Total Commitment (after giving effect, with respect to any day, to any Loans being repaid or prepaid on such day and any other Loans to be made on such day) and (iii) the Company may not request Competitive Loans before the fifth Business Day after the Effective Date. Each Bank may, but shall have no obligation to, make such offers and the Company may, but shall have no obligation to, accept any such offers, in the manner set forth in this
Section 2.08.

(b) The Company may request Competitive Loans under this
Section 2.08 by giving a Competitive Loan Request to the Agent, by telephone, telex, telecopy or in writing not later than 12:00 Noon, New York time (if not in writing, to be confirmed in writing in substantially the form of Exhibit C-1 not later than 2:00 P.M., New York time, on the same day), on (i) the fourth Business Day prior to the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurodollar Competitive Loans, and (ii) on the Business Day immediately prior to the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of Absolute Rate Competitive Loans. The Agent shall promptly notify each Bank, by a letter in substantially the form of Exhibit C-2, of each such Competitive Loan Request received by it from the Company and of the terms contained therein.

(c) Each Bank may, if it elects so to do, irrevocably offer to make a Competitive Loan of the requested type to the Company

Page 22

at a Competitive Bid Rate or Rates, as specified by such Bank in accordance with the related Competitive Loan Request, by submitting a Competitive Bid, in substantially the form of Exhibit C-3 and indicating the maximum and minimum principal amounts of the Competitive Loan which such Bank would be willing to make (which amount may, subject to the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.08(a), exceed such Bank's Commitment, but shall be in a principal amount equal to $1,000,000 or in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof), the Competitive Rate, or Competitive Margin for the relevant Interest Period, as the case may be, and any other terms and conditions required by such Bank, not later than 9:30 A.M., New York time, on (i) the third Business Day prior to the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurodollar Competitive Loans or (ii) the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of Absolute Rate Competitive Loans, to the Agent (which shall give notice thereof to the Borrower as promptly as practicable and in no event later than 10:00 A.M., New York time); provided that, if the Agent, at such time (if any) as it is a Bank, shall elect to submit a Competitive Bid, the Agent shall communicate the substance of its Competitive Bid to the Company not later than 15 minutes prior to the applicable deadline specified above. Banks may submit multiple Competitive Bids. Any Competitive Bid that does not conform substantially with Exhibit C-3 may be rejected by the Agent, after conferring with the Company, and the Agent shall notify the Bank that submitted such Competitive Bid of such rejection as promptly as practicable. The Agent shall (i) disclose the Competitive Bids received to the Company as promptly as reasonably practicable after the deadline stated above for the submission of Competitive Bids, (ii) maintain in confidence all Competitive Bids until each of them has been disclosed to the Company and (iii) provide copies of all Competitive Bids (or other written notice containing all of the terms thereof) to the Company as soon as practicable after completion of the bidding process described in this Section 2.08.

(d) The Company shall, not later than (i) 12:00 Noon, New York time, on the third Business Day prior to the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurodollar Competitive Loans or (ii) 12:00 Noon, New York time, on the proposed Borrowing Date, in the case of Absolute Rate Competitive Loans, either

(i) cancel the Borrowing Request by giving the Agent notice to that effect or

(ii) accept one or more Competitive Bids, in its sole discretion, by giving notice to the Agent of the principal amount of each Competitive Loan (which principal amount shall be equal to or greater than the minimum amount offered by the relevant Bank and equal to or less than the maximum amount offered by such Bank for such Competitive Loan pursuant to Section 2.08(c)), to be made by each Bank, and reject any remaining Competitive Bids, by giving the Agent notice to that effect; provided that the aggregate

Page 23

principal amount of such offers accepted by the Company shall be in a principal amount equal to $1,000,000 or in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof, each such notice to be in substantially the form of Exhibit C-4 (a "Competitive Accept/Reject Notice"); provided that

(A) the failure by the Company to give such notice in a timely fashion shall be deemed to be a rejection of all the Competitive Bids,

(B) the Company shall not accept a Competitive Bid made at a Competitive Bid Rate if such Company has rejected a Competitive Bid made at a lower Competitive Bid Rate,

(C) the aggregate principal amount of the Competitive Bids accepted by the Company shall not exceed the principal amount specified in the Competitive Loan Request,

(D) if the Company shall accept Competitive Bids made at a particular Competitive Bid Rate but shall be restricted by other conditions hereof from borrowing the principal amount of Competitive Loans specified in such Competitive Loan Request in respect of which Competitive Bids at such Competitive Bid Rate have been made or if the Company shall accept Competitive Bids made at a particular Competitive Bid Rate but the aggregate amount of Competitive Bids made at such Competitive Bid Rate shall exceed the amount specified in the Competitive Loan Request, then the Company shall accept a pro rata portion of each Competitive Bid made at such Competitive Bid Rate aggregating the portion of Competitive Loans with respect to which Competitive Bids at such Competitive Bid Rate have been received (provided further that if the principal amount of Competitive Loans to be so allocated is not sufficient to enable Competitive Loans to be so allocated to each such Bank in a principal amount equal to $1,000,000 or in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof, the Company shall select the Banks to be allocated such Competitive Loans in a principal amount equal to not less than $1,000,000 but may round up allocations to the next higher integral multiple of $100,000 if necessary), and

(E) except as provided in clause (E) above, no Competitive Bid shall be accepted for a Competitive Loan unless such Competitive Loan is in a principal amount equal to $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

(e) If the Company notifies the Agent that a Borrowing Notice for Competitive Loans is canceled, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Banks.

Page 24

(f) If the Company accepts one or more Competitive Bids, the Agent shall promptly give notice (i) to each Bank of the date and aggregate amount of such Competitive Loan(s), the Competitive Bid Rate therefor and whether or not any Competitive Bid made by such Bank has been accepted by the Company, and (ii) to each Bank whose Competitive Bid, or any portion thereof, has been accepted by the Company, of the principal amount of the Competitive Loan to be made by such Bank and the date for repayment thereof, together with the Competitive Rate or Competitive Margin, as applicable, and any other terms applicable to such Competitive Loan.

(g) Following any acceptance by the Company and notification by the Agent pursuant to Section 2.06(f), and upon satisfaction, or waiver by the Banks, of each of the applicable conditions precedent contained in Article VI, each such Bank shall disburse to the Agent, by 2:00 P.M. on the specified Borrowing Date, the aggregate principal amount of the Competitive Loans accepted by the Company, whereupon the Agent shall promptly disburse such funds to the Company in funds immediately available at the Company's office specified in Section 11.06.

(h) Nothing in this Section 2.08 shall be construed as a right of first offer in favor of the Banks or to otherwise limit the ability of the Company to request and accept credit facilities from any Person (including any Bank).

Section 2.09. Competitive Notes. The Company's obligation to repay the Competitive Loans shall be evidenced by Competitive Notes, one such Competitive Note payable to the order of each Bank making a Competitive Loan pursuant to Section 2.08. The Competitive Note of each Bank shall (i) be in the principal amount of 50% of the Total Commitment or, if less, the aggregate principal amount outstanding under Competitive Loans made by such Bank, (ii) be dated the date of the initial Competitive Loan made by such Bank and (iii) be stated to mature on the last Maturity Date of any Competitive Loan made by such Bank as such date may be extended hereunder and bear interest from its date until maturity on the principal balance (from time to time outstanding thereunder) payable at the rates and in the manner provided herein. Each Bank is authorized to indicate upon the grid attached to its Competitive Note all Competitive Loans made by it pursuant to this Agreement, interest elections and payments of principal and interest thereon. Such notations shall be presumptive as to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Competitive Loans made by such Bank, and interest due thereon, but the failure by any Bank to make such notations or the inaccuracy or incompleteness of any such notations shall not affect the obligations of the Company hereunder or under the Competitive Notes.

Section 2.10. Swing Line Advances.

(a) Prior to the Termination Date, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Swing Line Bank shall

Page 25

make, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, Swing Line Advances to the Company from time to time on any Business Day in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding $15,000,000
(the "Swing Line Facility"); provided, however, that the sum of (i)
the aggregate outstanding Loans plus (ii) the aggregate outstanding Swing Line Advances, may not exceed the Total Commitment. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be in an amount of not less than $100,000 or an integral multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each Bank other than the Swing Line Bank shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased from the Swing Line Bank a participation in such Swing Line Advance in an amount equal to such Bank's Pro Rata Share of the principal amount thereof.

(b) Interest. Each Swing Line Advance shall bear interest at a rate agreed upon by the Company and the Swing Line Bank but in no event higher than a rate based upon the Base Rate and in the manner set forth in Section 3.02, as if such Swing Line Advance were an ABR Loan. Such interest shall be payable in arrears at the end of the applicable interest period or as otherwise agreed by the Company and the Swing Line Bank. The interest period for any Swing Line Advance shall not exceed 30 days.

(c) Swing Line Note. The Company's obligation to repay its Swing Line Advances shall be evidenced by a Swing Line Note which shall be (i) payable to the Swing Line Bank, (ii) in the principal amount of $15,000,000 or, if less, the principal amount of the Company's Swing Line Advances from time to time outstanding, (iii) dated not later than the date of the Company's first Swing Line Advance and (iv) stated to mature with respect to each Swing Line Advance from time to time outstanding thereunder on the date determined pursuant to this Section 2.10 but in any event not later than the Termination Date. The Swing Line Bank is authorized to indicate upon the grid attached to the Swing Line Note all borrowings thereunder and payments of principal and interest thereon. Such notations shall be presumptively correct as to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Swing Line Advance made by the Swing Line Bank, and interest due thereon, but the failure by the Swing Line Bank to make such notations or the inaccuracy or incompleteness of any such notations shall not affect the obligations of the Company hereunder or under the Swing Line Note.

(d) Procedure. Each Swing Line Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 12:00 P.M., New York time on the date of the proposed Swing Line Borrowing, by the Company to the Swing Line Bank and the Agent. Each such notice of a proposed Swing Line Borrowing (a "Swing Line Advance Request") shall be by telephone or telecopier (and if by telecopier, in the form of Exhibit E thereto), and, if by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such borrowing, (ii) amount of such borrowing and (iii) maturity of such borrowing (which maturity shall be no later than the thirtieth day after the requested date of such borrowing subject to successive thirty day extensions thereof, at the

Page 26

Company's option, so long as the total outstanding amount of Swing Line Advances remains less than or equal to $15,000,000). To the extent it is required to do so pursuant to Section 2.10(a) above, the Swing Line Bank will make the amount of the requested Swing Line Advance available to the Agent in immediately available funds, at the office of the Agent at its address set forth on the signature pages hereof. After the Agent's receipt of such funds and upon satisfaction by the Company, or waiver by the Agent of each of the conditions precedent contained in Article VI applicable thereto, the Agent will disburse such funds to the Company.

(e) Repayment. The Company shall repay to the Agent for the account of the Swing Line Bank the outstanding principal amount of each Swing Line Advance made to the Company on the earlier of the maturity date specified in the applicable Swing Line Advance Request (which maturity shall be no later than the thirtieth day after the requested date of such borrowing subject to successive thirty day extensions thereof, at the Company's option, so long as the total outstanding amount of Swing Line Advances remains less than or equal to $5,000,000) and the Termination Date.

(f) Conversion of Swing Line Advances. Subject to Section 4.03, (i) if the aggregate outstanding Swing Line Advances shall at any time exceed $1,000,000 the Company may, at its option, convert such Swing Line Advances to an ABR Loan and if the aggregate outstanding Swing Line Advances shall at any time exceed $2,500,000 the Company may, at its option, convert such Swing Line Advances to a Eurodollar Pro Rata Loan; (ii) if the aggregate outstanding Swing Line Advances shall at any time exceed $7,500,000, Swing Line Advances in excess of such amount shall, on the next date on which interest is payable on any Swing Line Advance, unless converted at the Company's option pursuant to clause (i) above, automatically be converted to an ABR Loan; and (iii) if a Default shall occur and be continuing, the Swing Line Bank may, at its option, convert such Swing Line Advances to an ABR Loan. Upon election of any conversion under clause (i), the Company shall notify the Swing Line Bank in writing of such conversion, whether such Swing Line Advances shall be ABR Loans or Eurodollar Pro Rata Loans and the Business Day on which such conversion is to be effective (which notice in the case of the Eurodollar Pro Rata Loans shall not be less than three days prior to the requested date for conversion) and upon any automatic conversion under clause (ii) or election of conversion under clause (iii), the Swing Line Bank shall immediately notify the Company in writing of such conversion. On the Business Day of any conversion described above, such Swing Line Advances shall constitute an ABR Loan or a Eurodollar Pro Rata Loan and shall bear interest at the rate of interest then applicable to ABR Loans or Eurodollar Pro Rata Loans, as the case may be. Upon written demand by the Swing Line Bank on or before 1:00 P.M., New York time, with a copy of such demand to the Agent, each other Bank shall purchase from the Swing Line Bank, and the Swing Line Bank shall sell to each such other Bank, such other Bank's Pro Rata Share of such outstanding Swing Line Advance as of

Page 27

the date of such demand, by making available to the Agent for the account of the Swing Line Bank not later than 2:00 P.M., New York time, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Swing Line Advance to be purchased by such Bank. The Company hereby agrees to each such sale. Each Bank agrees to purchase its Pro Rata Share of an outstanding Swing Line Advance on (i) the Business Day on which demand therefor is made by the Swing Line Bank, provided that notice of such demand is given not later than 1:00 P.M., New York time, on such Business Day or
(ii) the first Business Day next succeeding such demand if notice of such demand is given after such time. If and to the extent that any Bank shall not have so made the amount of such Swing Line Advance available to the Agent, such Bank agrees to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of demand by the Swing Line Bank until the date such amount is paid to the Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) the Federal Funds Rate, for the three-day period beginning on the date of such demand, and (ii) the rate of interest then applicable to ABR Loans or Eurodollar Pro Rata Loans, as the case may be, for the period beginning on the fourth day after the date of such demand, changing as and when said rate changes.

Section 2.11. Increase in Commitments. (a)(i) The Company may, by submitting a notice (an "Increase Notice") to the Agent, request that the Banks increase the Total Commitment up to the amount specified therein, provided that the amount of such increase shall be an integral multiple of $5,000,000 and the Total Commitment after such increase shall not be greater than $200,000,000. Promptly upon receipt of such Increase Notice from the Company, the Agent shall notify the Banks and any new lenders of the contents thereof. Each Bank and new lender shall provide written notice to the Agent, no later than 21 days after the date on which the Increase Notice shall have been given to the Agent, of the amount, if any, by which such Bank agrees to increase its Commitment or such new lender agrees to establish as its Commitment. Promptly upon receipt of such notice from any Bank, the Agent shall notify the Company of the contents thereof. To the extent that the aggregate amount of the proposed Commitments of such new lenders and the proposed increase of the Commitments of such existing Banks is less than the aggregate amount of the increase of the Commitments requested by the Company, the Company may either (A) request the Agent to solicit the Banks for further increases in their Commitments or (B) amend the Increase Notice by reducing the requested amount by which the aggregate amount of the Commitments is to be increased to an amount equal to the aggregate amount of proposed Commitments of such new lenders and the proposed increase of the Commitments of such existing Banks.

(ii) Upon the effectiveness of the increase in Commitments pursuant to Section 2.11(b) below, each of the new lenders shall execute and deliver a counterpart of this Agreement, Schedule 1 shall be amended by the Company and the Agent to reflect the increase in the Commitment of any existing Bank and the Commitments of such new

Page 28

lenders, and such new lenders shall be and become Banks hereunder for all purposes hereof and of the Credit Documents. In connection with any such increase, the Borrower shall execute and deliver new Pro Rata Notes to reflect appropriately such new Commitments and the Banks (including such new lenders) shall effect such purchases and sales among themselves of portions of the outstanding Loans (other than outstanding Competitive Loans) as shall be necessary to reflect such Commitments, as specified by the Agent, and, in connection with such purchases and sales, the Borrower shall pay to each affected Bank, in the case of Banks that are sellers of Loans, an amount equal to the amount that the Borrower would have had to pay pursuant to Section 4.04 if such Loans, or portions thereof, were prepaid on such Increase Date or, in the case of Banks that are purchasers of Loans, such amount, determined as if Section 4.04 were applicable thereto, specified by such Bank as necessary to compensate it for the funding of the Loans, or portions thereof, purchased by it.

(b) An increase in Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall become effective on the Increase Date so long as each of the following conditions shall have been fulfilled on and as of such date: (i) the Agent shall have consented to any such new lenders;
(ii) the Agent shall have received opinions of counsel to the Borrower in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent; (iii) the conditions to the making of Loans set forth in Section 6.02 shall be fulfilled on and as of such Increase Date as if Loans were made thereon; and (iv) the Agent shall have received such other instruments and documents, in form and substance satisfactory to it, as it shall have reasonably requested.

ARTICLE III

INTEREST, METHOD OF PAYMENT, CONVERSION, ETC.

Section 3.01. Procedure for Interest Rate Determination.

(a) Unless the Company shall request in a Loan Request or in a Conversion/Continuance Request that Pro Rata Loans (or portions thereof) bear interest as Eurodollar Pro Rata Loans, the Pro Rata Loans shall bear interest as ABR Loans.

(b) Competitive Rate Loans shall bear interest as Absolute Rate Competitive Loans or Eurodollar Competitive Loans as determined in accordance with Section 2.08.

Section 3.02. Interest on ABR Loans. Each ABR Loan shall bear interest from the date of such ABR Loan until maturity thereof or until such Loan is repaid, or the beginning of any relevant Interest Period, as the case may be, payable in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter of each year, commencing with the first such date after the date hereof, and on the date such ABR Loan is repaid, at a rate per annum (on the basis of a 365- or 366-day year

Page 29

for the actual number of days involved in the case of ABR Loans which accrue interest based upon the Prime Rate and on the basis of a 360- day year for the actual number of days involved in the case of ABR Loans which accrue interest based upon the Federal Funds Rate) equal to the Base Rate in effect from time to time, which rate shall change as and when said Base Rate shall change. If an ABR Loan is outstanding, the Agent shall notify the Company of the Base Rate when said Base Rate shall change; provided that the failure to give notice shall not affect the Company's obligations with respect to such ABR Loan.

Section 3.03. Interest on Eurodollar Loans.

(a) Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest from the date of such Loan until maturity thereof or until such Loan is repaid, payable in arrears, with respect to Interest Periods of three months or less, on the last day of such Interest Period, and with respect to Interest Periods longer than three months, on the day which is three months after the commencement of such Interest Period and on the last day of such Interest Period, at a rate per annum (on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days involved), determined by the Agent with respect to each Interest Period with respect to Eurodollar Loans, equal to the sum of (i) the Applicable Margin, in the case of Eurodollar Pro Rata Loans or the Competitive Margin, in the case of Eurodollar Competitive Loans and (ii) LIBOR.

(b) The Interest Period for each Eurodollar Loan shall be selected by the Company at least three Business Days prior to the beginning of such Interest Period. If the Company fails to notify the Agent of the subsequent Interest Period for an outstanding Eurodollar Pro Rata Loan at least three Business Days prior to the last day of the then current Interest Period of such Eurodollar Pro Rata Loan, then such outstanding Eurodollar Pro Rata Loan shall become an ABR Loan at the end of such current Interest Period.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing: (i) if any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to carry such Interest Period into another calendar month, in which event such Interest Period shall end on the immediately preceding Business Day; (ii) any Interest Period that begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period) shall end on the last Business Day of a calendar month; and (iii) no Interest Period for a Eurodollar Loan may extend beyond the Termination Date.

(d) Eurodollar Loans shall be made by each Bank from its branch or affiliate identified as its Eurodollar Lending Office on the signature page hereto, or such other branch or affiliate as it may hereafter designate to the Company and the Agent as its

Page 30

Eurodollar Lending Office. A Bank shall not change its Eurodollar Lending Office designation if it, at the time of the making of such change, increases the amounts that would have been payable by the Company to such Bank under this Agreement in the absence of such a change.

Section 3.04. Interest on Absolute Rate Competitive Loans. Each Absolute Rate Competitive Loan shall bear interest from the date of such Loan to (but excluding) its Maturity Date, payable in arrears, with respect to maturities of three months or less, on its Maturity Date, and with respect to maturities longer than three months, on the day which is three months after the making of such loan (and each three month anniversary thereafter, if any) and on its Maturity Date, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Competitive Rate.

Section 3.05. Conversion/Continuance.

(a) The Company may request, by delivery to the Agent of a written Conversion/Continuance Request not less than three Business Days prior to a requested Conversion/ Continuance Date, that all or portions of the outstanding ABR Loans and Eurodollar Pro Rata Loans, in the aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, if the aggregate amount of outstanding Loans is less than $1,000,000, then all such lesser amount), shall bear interest from and after the Conversion Date as either ABR Loans or Eurodollar Pro Rata Loans.

(b) Upon receipt of any such Conversion/ Continuance Request from the Company, the Agent shall forthwith give notice to each Bank of the substance thereof. Effective on such Conversion/Continuance Date and upon payment by the Company of the amounts, if any, required by Section 4.03, the Loans or portions thereof as to which the Conversion/Continuance Request was made shall commence to accrue interest as set forth in this Article III for the interest rate selected by the Company.

(c) In lieu of delivering the above described notice, the Company may give the Agent telephonic notice hereunder by the required time under this Section 3.04; provided that such telephonic notice shall be confirmed by delivery of a written notice to the Agent by no later than 4:00 P.M., New York City time, the date of such telephonic notice.

Section 3.06. Post Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, all Loans, Swing Line Advances and any unpaid installment of interest shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) 2% and (ii) with respect to ABR Loans and Swing Line Advances, the rate of interest then applicable to ABR Loans, changing as and when said rate shall change, with respect to Eurodollar Loans, the rate of interest applicable to each such Eurodollar Loan, and with respect to Absolute

Page 31

Rate Competitive Loans, the Competitive Rate applicable to such Absolute Rate Competitive Loan. Interest payable pursuant to this
Section 3.06 shall be payable on demand.

Section 3.07. Maximum Interest Rate.

(a) Nothing in this Agreement or the Notes shall require the Company to pay interest at a rate exceeding the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. Neither this Section nor Section 11.01 is intended to limit the rate of interest payable for the account of any Bank to the maximum rate permitted by the laws of the State of New York (or any other applicable law) if a higher rate is permitted with respect to such Bank by supervening provisions of U.S. Federal law.

(b) If the amount of interest payable for the account of any Bank on any interest payment date in respect of the immediately preceding interest computation period, computed pursuant to this Article III, would exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to be charged by such Bank, the amount of interest payable for its account on such interest payment date shall automatically be reduced to such maximum permissible amount.

ARTICLE IV

DISBURSEMENT AND PAYMENT

Section 4.01. Pro Rata Treatment. Each payment of the Facility Fee and each reduction of the Total Commitment shall be apportioned among the Banks in proportion to each Bank's Pro Rata Share. Except as provided in Section 4.04 or 4.05, the ABR Loans and Eurodollar Pro Rata Loans or portions thereof as to which a Conversion/Continuance Request has been made pursuant to Section 3.05 hereof shall at all times bear interest on the same basis (as ABR Loans and Eurodollar Pro Rata Loans) and the Interest Periods applicable thereto, if any, shall be of the same duration.

Section 4.02. Method of Payment. All payments by the Company hereunder and under the Notes shall be made without set-off or counterclaim to the Agent, for its account or for the account of the Bank or Banks entitled thereto, as the case may be, in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds at the office of the Agent on the date when due.

Section 4.03. Compensation for Losses.

(a) Compensation. In the event that (i) the Company makes a prepayment under Section 2.06 on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for the amount so prepaid, (ii) a Conversion/Continuance Date selected pursuant to Section 3.05 falls on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for the

Page 32

amount as to which a conversion is made, (iii) the Company revokes any notice given under Section 2.02 requesting Eurodollar Loans, (iv) the Loans or portions thereof are converted into ABR Loans pursuant to
Section 4.05 on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for the Eurodollar Loans so converted, (v) the Eurodollar Loans shall be declared to be due and payable prior to the scheduled maturity thereof pursuant to Section 8.01 or (vi) Swing Line Advances shall be converted into an ABR Loan on any day other than the maturity date for such Swing Line Advances, the Company shall pay to each Bank or the Swing Line Bank, as the case may be, promptly after its demand an amount which will compensate such Bank or the Swing Line Bank, as the case may be, for any cost, loss, premium or penalty incurred (other than any cost, loss, premium or penalty incurred as a consequence of any Tax, which shall be governed by the provisions of Section 4.04(a)) by such Bank or the Swing Line Bank, as the case may be, as a result of such prepayment, conversion, declaration or revocation of notice in respect of funds deemed (pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 4.03(a)) obtained for the purpose of making or maintaining such Bank's Eurodollar Loans or the Swing Line Bank's Swing Line Advances, or any part thereof (it being understood, however, that the foregoing shall not be construed as covering any amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.10(c) by a Bank to the Swing Line Bank in connection with the conversion of a Swing Line Loan). Such compensation shall include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so paid or prepaid, or not borrowed or converted, for the period from the date of such payment or prepayment or conversion or failure to borrow to the last day of such Interest Period or the maturity date of Swing Line Advances (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure to borrow) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loan provided for herein
(excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein) over (ii)
the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Bank) which would have accrued to such Bank on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the London Interbank market. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Company to the Banks under this Section, each Eurodollar Loan made by a Bank (and each related reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded at Base LIBOR used in determining LIBOR for such Eurodollar Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London Interbank deposits market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Loan is in fact so funded.

(b) Certificate, Etc. Each Bank and the Swing Line Bank, if applicable, shall promptly notify the Company, with a copy to the Agent, upon becoming aware that the Company may be required to make any payment pursuant to this Section 4.03. When requesting payment pursuant to this Section 4.03, each Bank and the Swing Line Bank, if applicable, shall provide to the Company, with a copy to the Agent, a certificate, signed by an officer of such Bank or Swing Line Bank,

Page 33

setting forth the amount required to be paid by the Company to such Bank or Swing Line Bank and the computations made by such Bank or Swing Line Bank to determine such amount. In the absence of manifest error, such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Company as to the amount so required to be paid by the Company to such Bank.

(c) Participants. Subject to Section 11.08(e), each Participant shall be deemed a "Bank" for the purposes of this Section 4.03.

Section 4.04. Withholding, Reserves and Additional Costs.

(a) Taxes.

(i) Withholding. To the extent permitted by law, all payments under this Agreement and under the Notes (including payments of principal and interest) shall be payable to each Bank free and clear of any and all present and future Covered Taxes. If any Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted from any amount payable under this Agreement or any Note, then (1) the Company shall pay any such Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto, and (2) in the event such Tax is a Covered Tax, the amount payable under this Agreement or such Note shall be increased to the amount which, after deduction from such increased amount of all Covered Taxes required to be withheld or deducted therefrom, will yield to such Bank the amount stated to be payable under this Agreement or such Note. The Company shall execute and deliver to any Bank upon its request such further instruments as may be necessary or desirable to give full force and effect to any such increase, including a new Note of the Company to be issued in exchange for any Note theretofore issued. The Company shall also hold each Bank harmless and indemnify it for any stamp or other taxes with respect to the preparation, execution, delivery, recording, performance or enforcement of the Credit Documents (all of which shall be included with "Taxes"). If any Covered Taxes are paid by any Bank, the Company shall, not later than 10 days after demand of such Bank, reimburse such Bank for such payments, together with any interest, penalties and expenses incurred in connection therewith, plus interest thereon at a rate per annum (based on a 360-day year for the actual number of days involved) equal to the interest rate then applicable to ABR Loans, changing as and when such rate shall change, from the date such payment or payments are made by such Bank to the date of reimbursement by the Company. The Company shall deliver to the Agent certificates or other valid vouchers for all Taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by the Company hereunder.

(ii) Tax Refund. If the Company determines in good faith that, (a) acting in the name of a Bank, Participant, Assignee or the Agent it is more likely than not to win a contest involving a Covered Tax, or (b) acting in the name of the Company, a reasonable basis exists for contesting a Covered Tax, then the relevant Bank,

Page 34

Participant, Assignee or the Agent, as applicable, shall cooperate with the Company in challenging such Tax at the Company's expense if requested by the Company (it being understood and agreed that neither the Agent nor any Bank, Participant or Assignee shall have any obligation to contest, or any responsibility for contesting any Tax). If any Bank, Participant, Assignee or the Agent, as applicable, receives a refund (whether by way of direct payment or by offset) of any Covered Tax for which a payment has been made pursuant to subsection 4.04(a)(i) which, in the reasonable good faith judgment of such Bank, Participant, Assignee or Agent, as the case may be, is allocable to such payment made under subsection 4.04(a)(i), the amount of such refund (together with any interest received thereon) shall be paid to the Company to the extent payment has been made in full pursuant to subsection 4.04(a)(i).

(iii) U.S. Tax Certificates. Each Bank that is organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any state thereof shall deliver to the Agent for transmission to the Company, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case of each Bank listed on the signature pages hereof) or on the date (and as a condition to effectiveness) of an assignment pursuant to which it becomes a Bank (in the case of each other Bank), and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of the Company or the Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), such certificates, documents or other evidence, properly completed and duly executed by such Bank (including, without limitation, Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or Form 4224 or any other certificate or statement of exemption required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.1441-4(a) or
Section 1.1441-6(c) or any successor thereto) to establish that such Bank is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal income tax under Section 1441 or 1442 of the Code or otherwise (or under any comparable provisions of any successor statute) or is subject to deduction or withholding at a reduced rate under any applicable treaty or otherwise with respect to any Payments to such Bank of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under this Agreement or any of the Notes. The Company shall not be required to pay any additional amount to any such Bank under subsection 4.04(a)(i) if such Bank shall have failed to satisfy the requirements of the immediately preceding sentence; provided that if such Bank shall have satisfied such requirements on the Closing Date (in the case of each Bank listed on the signature pages hereof) or on the date of the agreement pursuant to which it became a Bank (in the case of each other Bank), nothing in this subsection 4.04(a)(iii) shall relieve the Company of its obligation to pay any additional amounts pursuant to subsection 4.04(a)(i) in the event that, as a result of any change in applicable law, such Bank is no longer properly entitled to deliver certificates, documents or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that such Bank is not subject to withholding as described in the immediately preceding sentence.

Page 35

(iv) Mitigation. Each Bank agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Bank responsible for administering the Loans under this Agreement becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would require the Company to make payments with respect to such Bank under subsection 4.04(a)(i), it will, to the extent not inconsistent with such Bank's internal policies, use reasonable efforts (1) to make, fund or maintain the Commitments or Loans of such Bank through another lending office of such Bank, or (2) take such other reasonable measures, if as a result the additional amounts that would otherwise be required to be paid by the Company with respect to such Bank pursuant to subsection 4.04(a)(i) would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Bank in its sole discretion, the making, funding or maintaining of such Commitments or Loans through such other lending office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise materially adversely affect such Commitments or Loans or the interests of such Bank.

(v) Replacement of Bank. If the Company becomes obligated to pay additional amounts described in Section 4.04(a) as a result of any condition described in such section and payment of such amount is demanded by any Bank, then the Company may, on ten business days' prior written notice to the Agent and such Bank, cause such Bank to (and such Bank shall) assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a Bank or other entity selected by the Company for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Bank's Loans and all accrued interest and fees, provided that in no event shall the assigning Bank be required to pay or surrender to such purchasing Bank or other entity any of the fees received by such assigning Bank pursuant to this Agreement. The Company shall remain obligated to pay to such assigning Bank all additional amounts described in Section 4.04(a) arising on or prior to the date of such assignment as a result of any condition described in such section and demanded by any Bank.

(b) Additional Costs. (i) If after the date hereof, any change in any law or regulation or in the interpretation thereof by any court or administrative or governmental authority charged with the administration thereof or the enactment of any law or regulation shall either (1) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against the Banks' Commitments or the Loans or Swing Line Advances or (2) impose on any Bank any other condition regarding this Agreement, its Commitment or the Loans or Swing Line Advances and the result of any event referred to in clause
(1) or (2) of this clause (b) shall be to increase the cost (other than an increase in cost as a consequence of any Tax, which shall be governed by the provisions of Section 4.04(a)) to any Bank of maintaining its Commitment or any Loans or Swing Line Advances (which increase in cost shall be calculated in accordance with each Bank's reasonable averaging and attribution methods) by an amount which any such Bank deems to be material, then, upon receipt by the

Page 36

Company of written notice by such Bank, the Company shall be obligated to pay to such Bank within 10 days of any written demand therefor an amount equal to such increase in cost incurred by any such Bank after the date the Company receives such notice; provided that in respect of any Loan or Swing Line Advances such amount shall bear interest, after receipt by the Company of any such demand until payment in full thereof, at a rate per annum (based on a 360-day year, for the actual number of days involved) equal to the sum of 2% and the interest rate then applicable to ABR Loans, changing as and when such rate shall change.

(ii) If any Bank shall have determined that the adoption of any applicable law, rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof (including any such adoption or change made prior to the date hereof but not effective until after the date hereof), or compliance by any Bank with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital for any such Bank or any corporation controlling such Bank as a consequence of its obligations under this Agreement to a level below that which such Bank or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Bank's or such corporation's policies with respect to capital adequacy), then upon receipt by the Company of written notice by such Bank, the Company shall be obligated to pay to such Bank upon receipt of written demand from such Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Bank for such reduction suffered by such Bank after the date the Company receives such notice, plus interest thereon at a rate per annum (based on a 360-day year, for the actual number of days involved) equal to the sum of 2% and the interest rate then applicable to ABR Loans, changing as and when such rate shall change, from the date of such demand by such Bank to the date of payment by the Company.

(iii) Mitigation. Each Bank agrees that, as promptly as practicable after the officer of such Bank responsible for administering the Loans under this Agreement becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that would require the Company to make payments with respect to such Bank under subsection 4.04(b)(i) or (ii), it will, to the extent not inconsistent with such Bank's internal policies, use reasonable efforts (1) to make, fund or maintain the Commitments or Loans of such Bank through another lending office of such Bank, or (2) take such other reasonable measures, if as a result the additional amounts that would otherwise be required to be paid by the Company with respect to such Bank pursuant to subsection 4.04(b)(i) or (ii) would be materially reduced and if, as determined by such Bank in its sole discretion, the making, funding or maintaining of such Commitments or

Page 37

Loans through such other lending office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not otherwise materially adversely affect such Commitments or Loans or the interests of such Bank.

(iv) Replacement of Bank. If the Company becomes obligated to pay additional amounts described in Section 4.04(b)(i) or (ii) as a result of any condition described in such section and payment of such amount is demanded by any Bank, then the Company may, on ten business days' prior written notice to the Agent and such Bank, cause such Bank to (and such Bank shall) assign all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a Bank or other entity selected by the Company for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Bank's Loans and all accrued interest and fees, provided that in no event shall the assigning Bank be required to pay or surrender to such purchasing Bank or other entity any of the fees received by such assigning Bank pursuant to this Agreement. The Company shall remain obligated to pay to such assigning Bank all additional amounts described in Section 4.04(b) arising on or prior to the date of such assignment as a result of any condition described in such section and demanded by any Bank.

(c) Lending Office Designations. Before giving any notice to the Company pursuant to this Section 4.04, each Bank shall, if possible, designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the judgment of such Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Bank.

(d) Certificate, Etc. Each Bank shall promptly notify the Company, with a copy to the Agent, upon becoming aware that the Company may be required to make any payment pursuant to this Section
4.04. When requesting payment pursuant to this Section 4.04, each Bank shall provide to the Company, with a copy to the Agent, a certificate, signed by an officer of such Bank, setting forth the amount required to be paid by the Company to such Bank and the computations made by such Bank to determine such amount. Determinations and allocations by such Bank for purposes of this
Section 4.04 shall be conclusive and binding upon the Company, provided that such determinations and allocations are made on a reasonable basis and are mathematically accurate.

(e) Participants. Subject to Section 11.08(e), each Participant shall be deemed a "Bank" for the purposes of this Section 4.04.

Section 4.05. Unavailability. If at any time any Bank shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive) that the making or maintenance of all or any part of such Bank's Eurodollar Loans has been made impracticable or unlawful because of compliance by such Bank in good faith with any law or guideline or interpretation or administration thereof by any official body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or

Page 38

with any request or directive of such body (whether or not having the effect of law), because U.S. dollar deposits in the amount and requested maturity of such Eurodollar Loans are not available to the Bank in the London Eurodollar Interbank market, or because of any other reason, then the Agent, upon notification to it of such determination by such Bank, shall forthwith advise the other Banks and the Company thereof. Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice and until such time as the Agent, upon notification to it by such Bank, shall notify the Company and the other Banks that the circumstances specified by it in such notice no longer apply, (i) notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, such Eurodollar Loans of such Bank shall automatically and without requirement of notice by the Company be converted to ABR Loans and (ii) the obligation of only such Bank to allow borrowing, elections and renewals of Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended, and, if the Company shall request in a Loan Request or Conversion/Continuance Request that such Bank make a Eurodollar Loan, the loan requested to be made by such Bank shall instead be made as an ABR Loan.

All such assets and properties are free and clear of all Liens, except Liens permitted pursuant to this Agreement.

Leases. To the Company's knowledge, no condition exists which, with the giving of notice or the passage of time, or both, would permit any lessee to cancel its obligations under any lease to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party that would create, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect; (ii) the Company has received no notice that any lessee or lessees intend to cease operations at any leased property or properties prior to the expiration of the term of the applicable lease (other than temporarily due to casualty, remodeling, renovation or any similar cause) that would create, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect; and (iii) to the Company's knowledge, none of the lessees or their sub-lessees, if any, under any of the leases to which the Company or any Subsidiary is a party to or is the subject of any bankruptcy, reorganizations, insolvency or similar proceeding that would create, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

ERISA. (i) Neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a transaction with respect to any Plan which, assuming the taxable period of such transaction expired as of the Compliance Date, could subject the Company or any ERISA Affiliate to a tax or penalty imposed by either Section 4975 of the Code or Section 502(i) of ERISA in an amount that would have a Material Adverse Effect.

(ii) Except as set forth on Schedule 5.01(q), neither the Company nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability since December 30, 1993, under Title IV of ERISA with respect to any "single employer plan" within the meaning of Section 4001(a)(15) of ERISA. No Single-Employer Plan had an accumulated funding deficiency, whether or not waived, as of the last day of the most recent fiscal year of such Plan ended prior to the Compliance Date, and each Plan has complied in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code.

(iv) Under each Single-Employer Plan, as of the last day of the most recent plan year ended prior to the Compliance Date, the actuarially determined present value of all benefit liabilities (as determined on the basis of the actuarial assumptions contained in the Plan's most recent actuarial valuation) did not exceed the fair market value of the asset of such Plan by an amount that would have a Material Adverse Effect.

(v) Insofar as the representations and warranties of the Company contained in clause (i) above relates to any Plan which is a multiemployer plan, such representations and warranties are made to the best knowledge of the Company and its ERISA Affiliates. As used in this Section, (A) "accumulated funding deficiency" shall have the meaning assigned to such term in Section 412 of the Code and Section 302 of ERISA; (B) "multiemployer plan" and "plan year" shall have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in Section 3 of ERISA; (C) "benefit liabilities" shall have the meaning assigned to

Not an Investment Company or Public Utility Holding Company. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is or, after giving effect to the transactions contemplated hereby will be (i) an "investment company" or a company "controlled" by an "investment company" within the meaning of the Investment Company

Environmental Matters. Except as they would not individually or in the aggregate have a Material Adverse Effect (i) the businesses as presently or formerly engaged in by the Company are and have been conducted in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws, including, without limitation, having all permits, licenses and other approvals and authorizations, during the time the Company engaged in such businesses, (ii) the properties presently or formerly owned or operated by the Company (including, without limitation, soil, groundwater or surface water on, under or adjacent to the properties, and buildings thereon) (the "Properties") do not contain any Hazardous Substance other than in compliance with applicable Environmental Law (provided, however, that with respect to Properties formerly owned or operated by the Company, such representation is limited to the period the Company owned or operated such Properties), (iii) the Company has not received any notices, demand letters or request for information from any Federal, state, local or foreign governmental entity or any third party indicating that the Company may be in violation of, or liable under, in any respect, any Environmental Law in connection with the ownership or

Insurance. All of the properties (other than properties leased to other Persons) and operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries of a character usually insured by companies of established reputation engaged in the same or a similar business similarly situated are adequately insured, by financially sound and reputable insurers, against loss or damage of the kinds and in amounts customarily insured against by such Persons, and the Company and its Subsidiaries carry, with such insurers in customary amounts, such other insurance as is usually carried by companies of established reputation engaged in the same or a similar business similarly situated.

REIT Status. The Company qualifies, and will elect or has elected to be treated, as a real estate investment trust under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code and the rules and regulations thereunder (a "REIT") beginning with its taxable year ending December 31, 1994.

THE AGENT AND THE BANKS

The relationship between the Agent and the Banks shall be that of agent and principal only and nothing herein shall be construed to constitute the Agent a trustee for any Bank nor to impose on the Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein.

Section 9.02. The Agent's Duties. The Agent shall promptly forward to each Bank copies, or notify each Bank as to the contents, of all notices and other communications received from the Company pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Notes and, in the event that the Company fails to pay when due the principal of or interest on any Loan, the Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Banks. As to any other matter not expressly provided for herein or therein, the Agent shall have no duty to act or refrain from acting with respect to the Company, except upon the instructions of the Required Banks. The Agent shall not be bound by any waiver, amendment, supplement, or modification of this Agreement or any Note which affects its duties hereunder and thereunder, unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto. The Agent shall have no duty to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, conditions, covenants or agreements binding on the Company pursuant to this Agreement or any Note nor shall it be deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default (other than a failure of the Company to pay when due the principal or interest on any Loan), unless it shall have received written notice from the Company or a Bank specifying such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a "Notice of Default".

All funds for the account of the Banks received by the Agent in respect of payments made by the Company pursuant to, or from any Person on account of, this Agreement or any Note shall be distributed forthwith by the Agent among the Banks, in like currency and funds as received, ratably in proportion to their respective interests therein. In the event that any Bank shall receive from the Company or any other source any payment of, on account of, or for or under this Agreement or any Note (whether received pursuant to the exercise of any right of set- off, banker's lien, realization upon any security held for or appropriated to such obligation or otherwise as permitted by law) other than in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, then such Bank shall purchase from each other Bank so much of its interest in obligations

Page 59

of the Company as shall be necessary in order that each Bank shall share such payment with each of the other Banks in proportion to each Bank's Pro Rata Share; provided that no Bank shall purchase any interest of any Bank that does not, to the extent that it may lawfully do so, set-off against the balance of any deposit accounts maintained with it the obligations due to it under this Agreement. In the event that any purchasing Bank shall be required to return any excess payment received by it, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such return, but without interest.

Section 9.04. The Agent's Liabilities. Each of the Banks and the Company agrees that (i) neither the Agent in such capacity nor any of its officers or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them hereunder except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct, (ii) neither the Agent in such capacity nor any of its officers or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in good faith in reliance upon the advice of counsel, independent public accountants or other experts selected by the Agent, and (iii) the Agent in such capacity shall be entitled to rely upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or other document (including any telegram, cable, telex, facsimile or telephone transmission) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed and/or sent by the proper Persons.

Section 9.05. The Agent as a Bank. The Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the terms "Bank" or "Banks", unless the context otherwise indicated, include the Agent in its individual capacity. The Agent may, without any liability to account, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of banking business with the Company or any Subsidiary or affiliate of the Company as if it were any other Bank and without any duty to account therefor to the other Banks.

Section 9.06. Bank Credit Decision. Neither the Agent nor any of its officers or employees has any responsibility for, gives any guaranty in respect of, nor makes any representation to the Banks as to, (i) the condition, financial or otherwise, of the Company or any Subsidiary thereof or the truth of any representation or warranty given or made herein or in any other Credit Document, or in connection herewith or therewith or (ii) the validity, execution, sufficiency, effectiveness, construction, adequacy, enforceability or value of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or any other document or instrument related hereto or thereto. Except as specifically provided herein and in the other Credit Documents to which the Agent is a party, the Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Bank with any credit or other information with respect to the operations, business, property, condition or creditworthiness of the

Page 60

Company or any of its Subsidiaries, whether such information comes into the Agent's possession on or before the date hereof or at any time thereafter. Each Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Bank, based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Bank also acknowledges that it will independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Bank, based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any Note.

Section 9.07. Indemnification. Each Bank agrees (which agreement shall survive payment of the Loans and the Notes) to indemnify the Agent, to the extent not reimbursed by the Company, ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, claims, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Agent hereunder or thereunder; provided that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or any of its officers or employees. Without limiting the foregoing, each Bank agrees to reimburse the Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Agent in such capacity in connection with the preparation, execution or enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any Note or any amendments or supplements hereto or thereto, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Company.

Section 9.08. Successor Agent. The Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Banks and the Company, and the Agent may be removed at any time by the Required Banks by giving written notice thereof to the Agent, the other Banks and the Company at least ten Business Days prior to the effective date of such removal. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Banks shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Banks and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the resigning Agent's giving of notice of resignation, or the Required Banks' giving notice of removal, as the case may be, the resigning Agent may, on behalf of the Banks, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all

Page 61

the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigned or removed Agent, and the resigned or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. After any Agent's resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article IX shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement.

ARTICLE X

The Company hereby appoints CT Corporation System, with offices on the date hereof at 1633 Broadway, New York, New York 10019, as its authorized agent on whom process may be served in any action which may be instituted against it by the Agent or the Banks in any state or federal court in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, arising out of or relating to any Loan or this Agreement and each Note. Service of process upon such authorized agent and written notice of such service to the Company shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Company, and the Company hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of any such court in any such action and to the laying of venue in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. The Company hereby irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in the aforesaid courts and hereby irrevocably waives any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall in any way affect the right of the Agent or any Bank to bring any action arising out of or relating to the Loans or this Agreement and each Note in any competent court elsewhere having jurisdiction over the Company or its property.

(a) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company, the Swing Line Bank and the Banks and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Company may not assign any of its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the Banks.

Page 64

(b) Any Bank may at any time grant to one or more banks or other institutions (each a "Participant") participating interests in its Commitment or any or all of its Loans. In the event of any such grant by a Bank of a participating interest to a Participant, whether or not upon notice to the Company and the Agent, such Bank shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Company and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which any Bank may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Bank shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Company hereunder including the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such participation agreement may provide that such Bank will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement described in clauses (i) through (vi), inclusive, of
Section 11.04 without the consent of the Participant. Subject to
Section 11.08(e), the Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.03, 4.04 and 11.04 with respect to its participating interest. An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by clause (c) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest granted in accordance with this clause (b).

(c) Any Bank may at any time assign to one or more banks or other institutions (each an "Assignee") all, or (except insofar as such assignment relates to Competitive Loans) a proportionate part of all, of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes, and such Assignee shall assume such rights and obligations, pursuant to an instrument executed by such Assignee and such transferor Bank, with (and subject to) the signed consents of the Company and the Agent and the Swing Line Bank (which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, any such assignment shall be in the minimum aggregate amount of $10,000,000; provided, further, that the foregoing consent requirement shall not be applicable in the case of, and this subsection (c) shall not restrict, an assignment of all, or (except insofar as such assignment relates to Competitive Loans) a proportionate part of all, of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes by any Bank to an Affiliate of such Bank or a pledge and assignment of all, or (except insofar as such assignment relates to Competitive Loans) a proportionate part of all, of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes to a Federal Reserve Bank as collateral; and provided, further, that no consent of the Company shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon (i) execution and delivery of such an instrument, (ii) payment by such Assignee to such transferor Bank of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Bank and such Assignee and (iii) payment by the transferee Bank or transferor Bank to the Agent of an administrative fee in the amount of $3,500, such Assignee shall be a Bank party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and

Page 65

obligations of a Bank with a Commitment as set forth in such instrument of assumption, and the transferor Bank (and the Company as to the transferor Bank) shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required. Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection (c), the transferor Bank, the Agent and the Company shall make appropriate arrangements so that, if required, new Notes are issued to the Assignee.

(d) No Assignee, Participant or other transferee of any Bank's rights shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under
Section 4.03 or 4.04 than such Bank would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless such transfer is made with the Company's prior written consent or by reason of the provisions of Section 4.04 requiring such Bank to designate a different lending office under certain circumstances or at a time when the circumstances giving rise to such payment did not exist.

(e) No Participant of any Bank shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.03, Section 4.04 or Section 11.04 than such Bank would have been entitled to receive if it had not granted a participation to such Participant.

Section 11.09. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE COMPANY, THE AGENT AND EACH OF THE BANKS HEREBY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL PROCEEDING INVOLVING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ANY MATTER (WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF, RELATED TO, OR CONNECTED WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES OR THE RELATIONSHIPS ESTABLISHED HEREUNDER.

Section 11.10. Confidentiality. Except as may be required to enforce the rights and duties established hereunder,

the parties hereto shall preserve in a confidential manner all information received from the other pursuant to this Agreement, the Notes and the transactions contemplated hereunder and thereunder, and shall not disclose such information except to those persons with which a confidential relationship is maintained (including regulators, legal counsel, accountants, or designated agents), or where required by law. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent the filing of this Agreement with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Section 11.11. Indemnity. The Company agrees to indemnify the Agent, the Swing Line Bank and each of the Banks and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each such person being called an "Indemnitee") against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities of any party other than the Company and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees and expenses incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this

Page 66

Agreement or any Note or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions and the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto and notwithstanding that any claim, proceeding, investigation or litigation relating to any such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses is or was brought by a stockholder, creditor, employee or officer of the Company; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any Indemnitee or from the breach by any Indemnitee of its obligations hereunder or with respect to claims or actions solely between or among the Banks relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby and provided further, that such Indemnity shall not apply to any loss, claim, damage, or liability or related expense incurred as a consequence of any additional costs (as contemplated by
Section 4.04(b)) or any Tax, which shall be governed by the provisions of Section 4.04(b) and (a), respectively.

The provisions of this Section 11.11 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the reduction or cancellation of the Commitment, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any Note, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Banks. All amounts due under this Section 11.11 shall be payable in immediately available funds upon written demand therefor.

Section 11.12. Extension of Termination Dates; Removal of Banks; Substitutions of Banks.

(a) (i) No earlier than the first anniversary of the Effective Date and no later than 120 days prior to the scheduled Termination Date, the Company may, at its option, request all the Banks then party to this Agreement to extend their scheduled Termination Dates by one calendar year by means of a letter, addressed to each such Bank and the Agent. If such a request is accepted and the Termination Date is extended pursuant to subsection 11.12(a)(ii), the Company may, at its option, no earlier than the date one year after the first request for extension and no later than 120 days prior to the rescheduled Termination Date, make one further request that all the Banks then party to this Agreement to extend their scheduled Termination Dates by one additional year in the same manner, subject to the provisions of subsection 11.12(a)(ii); provided that in no event shall the Termination Date be extended to a date which is later than the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date.

Page 67

(ii) Each Bank electing (in its sole discretion) so to extend its scheduled Termination Date shall execute and deliver within forty-five
(45) days following such request counterparts of such letter to the Company and the Agent, whereupon (unless Banks with an aggregate percentage of the Total Commitment in excess of 25% decline to extend their respective scheduled Termination Dates, in which event the Agent shall notify all the Banks thereof), such Bank's scheduled Termination Date shall be extended to the anniversary date of the year immediately succeeding such Bank's then-current scheduled Termination Date. If no such election is received within such forty-five day period from any Bank, such Bank shall be deemed to have elected not to extend its scheduled Termination Date.

(b) With respect to any Bank which has declined to extend such Bank's scheduled Termination Date and if Banks with an aggregate percentage of the Total Commitment not in excess of 25% have not declined to extend their respective Termination Dates, the Company may in its discretion, upon not less than 30 days' prior written notice to the Agent and each Bank, remove such Bank as a party hereto. Each such notice shall specify the date of such removal (which shall be a Business Day), which shall thereupon become the scheduled Termination Date for such Bank.

(c) In the event that any Bank does not extend its scheduled Termination Date pursuant to subsection (a) above or is the subject of a notice of removal pursuant to subsection (b) above, then, at any time prior to the Termination Date for such Bank (a "Terminating Bank"), the Company may, at its option, arrange to have one or more other financial institutions acceptable to the Agent (which may be a Bank or Banks and each of which shall herein be called a "Successor Bank") succeed to all or a percentage of the Terminating Bank's outstanding Loans, if any, and rights under this Agreement and assume all or a like percentage (as the case may be) of such Terminating Bank's Commitment and other obligations hereunder, as if
(i) in the case of any Bank electing not to extend its scheduled Termination Date pursuant to subsection (a) above, such Successor Bank had extended its scheduled Termination Date pursuant to such subsection (a) and (ii) in the case of any Bank that is the subject of a notice of removal pursuant to subsection (b) above, no such notice of removal had been given by the Company. Such succession and assumption shall be effected by means of one or more agreements supplemental to this Agreement among the Terminating Bank, the Successor Bank, the Company and the Agent. On and as of the effective date of each such supplemental agreement, each Successor Bank party thereto shall be and become a Bank for all purposes of this Agreement and to the same extent as any other Bank hereunder and shall be bound by and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement in the same manner as any other Bank.

(d) On the originally scheduled Termination Date for any Terminating Bank, such Terminating Bank's Commitment shall terminate and, except to the extent assigned pursuant to subsection (c) above,

Page 68

the Company shall pay in full all of such Terminating Bank's Loans and all other amounts payable to such Bank hereunder, including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 4.3 on account of such payment.

(e) To the extent that all or a portion of any Terminating Bank's obligations are not assumed pursuant to subsection (c) above, the Total Commitment shall be reduced on the applicable Termination Date and each Bank's percentage of the reduced Total Commitment shall be revised pro rata to reflect such Terminating Bank's absence.

Section 11.13. Knowledge of the Company. As used in this Agreement, knowledge of the Company shall mean to the best of any executive officer's knowledge, after a reasonable investigation.

Section 11.14. Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all the counterparts shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of the date first above written.

Agreement Referred to Below

Re: Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of November 29, 1994 and amended and restated as of December __, 1997, among Realty Income Corporation, the Banks Named Therein and The Bank of New York, as Agent and Swing Line Bank

Ladies/Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel for Realty Income Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") dated as of November 29, 1994 and amended and restated as of December __, 1997, among the Company, each of the banks identified on the signature pages thereof (the "Banks") and The Bank of New York, as Agent for the Banks and Swing Line Bank (the "Agent"). This opinion is rendered to you pursuant to Section 6.01(f) of the Credit Agreement. Capitalized terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

In our capacity as such counsel, we have examined such matters of fact and questions of law as we have considered appropriate for purposes of rendering the opinions expressed below. We have examined among other things, the following:

(a) The Credit Agreement;

Page 92

The Bank of New York,
as Agent for the Banks
December __, 1997

Page 2

(b) The following promissory notes of the Company dated _________________, 1997 (collectively, the "Notes", and together with the Credit Agreement, the "Loan Documents"): (i) note in the original principal amount of $__________ payable to The Bank of New York; (ii) note in the original principal amount of $_________________ payable to ______________; [and (____) note in the original principal amount of $_____________ payable to _____________________;]

(c) The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company; and

(d) Such other documents and agreements as we deem necessary for purposes of rendering the opinions expressed below.

In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures (other than those of officers of the Company on the Loan Documents as to which we have relied on a certificate of incumbency), the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies.

We have been furnished with, and with your consent have relied upon, certificates of officers of the Company with respect to certain factual matters. In addition, we have obtained and relied upon such certificates and assurances from public officials as we have deemed necessary.

We are opining herein as to the effect on the subject transaction only of the federal laws of the United States and the internal laws of the State of New York, as applicable, and we express no opinion with respect to the applicability thereto, or the effect thereon, of the laws of any other jurisdiction or as to any matters of municipal law or the laws of any other local agencies within any state.

Our opinions set forth in paragraph 1 below are based upon our consideration of only those statutes, rules and regulations which, in our experience, are normally applicable to bank credit transactions.

Subject to the foregoing and the other matters set forth herein, it is our opinion that, as of the date hereof:

Page 93

The Bank of New York,
as Agent for the Banks
December __, 1997

Page 3

1. None of the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents by the Company, the borrowing of the funds pursuant to the Loan Documents by the Company and the payment of the indebtedness of the Company evidenced by the Notes: (a) violate any federal or New York statute, rule, or regulation applicable to the Company (including, without limitation, Regulations G, T, U, or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), or (b) require any consents, approvals, authorizations, registrations, declarations, or filings by the Company under any applicable federal or New York statute, rule or regulation.

2. Each of the Loan Documents has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

3. The Company is not an "investment company" as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

The opinions set forth in paragraph 2 above are subject to the following limitations, qualifications and exceptions:

(a) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to or affecting the rights or remedies of creditors;

(b) the effect of general principles of equity, whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought;

(c) the unenforceability under certain circumstances under law or court decisions of provisions providing for the indemnification of or contribution to a party with respect to a liability where such indemnification or contribution is contrary to public policy;

(d) the unenforceability of any provision requiring the payment of attorney's fees, except to the extent that a court determines such fees to be reasonable; and

(e) we express no opinion with respect to the enforceability of Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement by a federal court.

Page 94

The Bank of New York,
as Agent for the Banks
December __, 1997

To the extent that the obligations of the Company may be dependent upon such matters, we assume for purposes of this opinion that: all parties to the Loan Documents other than the Company are duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of their respective jurisdictions of incorporation; all parties to the Loan Documents other than the Company have the requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver the Loan Documents and to perform their respective obligations under the Loan Documents to which they are a party; and the Loan Documents to which such parties other than the Company are a party have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such parties and constitute their legally valid and binding obligations, enforceable against them in accordance with their terms. We express no opinion as to compliance by any parties to the Loan Documents with any state or federal laws or regulations applicable to the subject transactions because of the nature of their business.

This opinion is rendered only to you and is solely for your benefit in connection with the transactions covered hereby. This opinion may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose, or furnished to, quoted to or relied upon by any other person, firm or corporation for any purpose, without our prior written consent.

Re: Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of November 29, 1994 and amended and restated as of December __, 1997, among Realty Income Corporation, the Banks Named Therein and The Bank of New York, as Agent and Swing Line Bank

Ladies/Gentlemen:

I am general counsel of Realty Income Corporation, a Maryland corporation (the "Company"). This opinion is rendered to you pursuant to Section 6.01(f) of the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") dated as of November 29, 1994 and amended and restated as of December __, 1997, among the Company, each of the banks identified on the signature pages thereof (the "Banks") and The Bank of New York, as Agent for the Banks and Swing Line Bank (the "Agent"). Capitalized terms defined in the Credit Agreement are used herein as therein defined.

In my capacity as general counsel, I have examined such matters of fact and questions of law as I have considered appropriate for purposes of rendering the opinions expressed below, except where a statement is qualified as to knowledge or awareness, in which case I have made no or limited inquiry as specified below. I have examined, among other things, the following:

(a) The Credit Agreement;

(b) The following promissory notes of the Company dated _____________, 1997 (collectively, the "Notes", and together with the Credit Agreement, the "Loan Documents"): (i) note in the original principal amount of $_____________ payable to The Bank of New York; (ii) note in the original principal amount of $____________ payable to ________________ [[and] (_____) note in the original principal amount of $__________ payable to ________________];

(c) The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company; and

(d) Such other documents and agreements as I deem necessary for purposes of rendering the opinions expressed below.

In my examination, I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures (other than those of officers of the Company on the Loan Documents), the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals, and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to me as copies.

I have been furnished with, and with your consent have relied upon, certificates of officers of the Company with respect to certain factual matters. In addition, I have obtained and relied upon such certificates and assurances from public officials as I have deemed necessary.

I am opining herein as to the effect on the subject transaction only of the federal laws of the United States and the internal laws of the State of California, as applicable, and I express no opinion with respect to the applicability thereto, or the effect thereon, of the laws of any other jurisdiction or as to any matters of municipal law or the laws of any other local agencies within any state.

Whenever a statement herein is qualified by "to the best of my knowledge" or a similar phrase, it is intended to indicate that I do not have current actual knowledge of the inaccuracy of such statement. Except as otherwise expressly indicated, I have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the accuracy of any such statement, and no inference that I have any knowledge of any matters pertaining to such statement should be drawn from my representation of the Company.

Subject to the foregoing and the other matters set forth herein, it is my opinion that, as of the date hereof:

1. Based solely on certificates from public officials, I confirm that the Company is qualified to do business in the states in which the Company owns properties.

2. To the best of my knowledge, there are no proceedings or investigations pending or threatened before any court or arbitrator or before or by any governmental authority which would have a material adverse effect on the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Loan Document.

This opinion is delivered by me as general counsel for the Company to you and is solely for your benefit in connection with the transactions covered hereby. This opinion may not be relied upon by you for any other purpose, or furnished to, quoted to or relied upon by any other person, firm or corporation for any purpose, without my prior written consent.

(a) guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of (i) all Obligations now outstanding or hereafter arising under or in connection with the Credit Agreement or the Notes, whether for principal, interest, fees, taxes, additional compensation, expense reimbursements, indemnification or otherwise, and (ii) each other debt, liability or obligation of Borrower now outstanding or hereafter arising under any of the Credit Agreement and the Notes (such Obligations, liabilities and other debts, liabilities and obligations, collectively, the "Guaranteed Obligations"), and

(b) agrees to pay on demand (i) all Disallowed Post- Commencement Interest and Expenses, to the Person entitled to payment thereof if the claim therefor had been allowed in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and (ii) all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and legal expenses) incurred by any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations in enforcing this Guaranty; provided, however, that the amount of each Guarantor's payment obligations hereunder shall not exceed an aggregate amount equal to such Guarantor's stockholders' or partners' equity, as the case may be.

SECTION 2.2 Acceleration of Payment. If (i) the Notes become immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Credit Agreement, then all liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation that is not then due and payable shall thereupon become and be immediately due and payable, without notice or demand.

SECTION 2.3 Guaranty Absolute and Unconditional. Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the Notes, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights and claims of any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations against Borrower with respect thereto and even if any such rights or claims are modified, reduced or discharged in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise. The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor to enforce this Guaranty, irrespective of whether any action is brought against Borrower or whether Borrower is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall

Page 103

be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any Note or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto; (ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from the Credit Agreement or any Note, including, without limitation, any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to Borrower or otherwise; (iii) any taking, exchange, release or non-perfection of any collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any manner of sale or other disposition of any collateral for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any other assets of Borrower; (v) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of Borrower; or (vi) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, a surety or guarantor.

SECTION 2.4 Guaranty Irrevocable and Continuing. This Guaranty is an irrevocable and continuing offer and agreement guaranteeing payment of any and all Guaranteed Obligations and shall extend to all Guaranteed Obligations now outstanding or created or incurred at any future time, whether or not created or incurred pursuant to any agreement presently in effect or hereafter made, until all obligations of the Lenders to extend credit to Borrower have expired or been terminated, and all Guaranteed Obligations have been fully, finally and indefeasibly paid. To the extent any contingent Obligation survives the expiration or termination of the Credit Agreement and the repayment of the Loans, each Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty shall likewise survive. This Guaranty may be released only in writing.

SECTION 2.5 Reinstatement. If at any time any payment on any Guaranteed Obligation is set aside, avoided or rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned, this Guaranty and the liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect and, if previously released or terminated, shall be automatically and fully reinstated, without any necessity for any act, consent or agreement of any Guarantor, as fully as if such payment had never been made and as fully as if any such release or termination had never become effective.

SECTION 2.6 Waiver. Each Guarantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert or take advantage of:

(a) Marshaling. Any right to require any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations to proceed against or exhaust its recourse against Borrower or any other Subsidiary Guarantor or any other Person liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations or

Page 104

against any collateral for any of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any other Person or property, before demanding and enforcing payment of the Guaranteed Obligations from any Guarantor under this Guaranty;

(b) Other Defenses. Any defense that may arise by reason of (i) the incapacity, lack of authority, death or disability of Borrower or any other Person; (ii) the revocation or repudiation of any of the Credit Agreement or the Notes by Borrower or any other Person; (iii) the unenforceability in whole or in part of the Credit Agreement or the Notes or any other instrument, document or agreement; (iv) the failure of any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations to file or enforce a claim against any Person liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations or in any Liquidation or Insolvency Proceeding; or (v) any borrowing or grant of a security interest under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code;

(c) Notices. Presentment, demand for payment, protest, notice of discharge, notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, notice of the incurrence of, or any default in respect of, any debt, liability or obligation guaranteed hereunder, and all other indulgences and notices of every type or nature, including, without limitation and to the maximum extent permitted by law, notice of the disposition of any collateral for any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(d) Election of Remedies. Any defense based upon an election of remedies (including, if available, an election to proceed by non-judicial foreclosure) or any other act or omission of any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person which destroys or otherwise impairs any right that any Guarantor might otherwise have for subrogation, recourse, reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution or otherwise against Borrower or any other Person;

(e) Collateral. Any defense based upon any taking, modification or release of any collateral or guaranties for the Guaranteed Obligations, or any failure to create or perfect or ensure the priority or enforceability of any security interest in any collateral for any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any act or omission related thereto;

(ii) any Guarantor against Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other Holder of Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person; or

Page 105

(g) Defenses of Others. Any other claim, right or defense (including, by way of illustration and without limitation, such matters as failure or insufficiency of consideration, statute of limitations, breach of contract, tortious conduct, accord and satisfaction, and discharge by agreement, conduct or in a Liquidation or Insolvency Proceeding), except the defense of payment, that may be held or asserted by or available to (i) Borrower or any other Guarantor or any other Person liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations against any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations or (ii) any Guarantor against Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other Holder of Guaranteed Obligations or any other Person.

SECTION 2.7 Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby represents, warrants and agrees, in respect of any and all present and future rights of subrogation, recourse, reimbursement, indemnity, exoneration, contribution and other claims that such Guarantor at any time may have against Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person liable for the payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations (including, without limitation, the owner of any interest in collateral for any of the Guaranteed Obligations) as a result of or in connection with this Guaranty or any payment hereunder, that:

(a) No Agreement. Such Guarantor has not entered into, and agrees that it will not enter into, any agreement providing, directly or indirectly, for any such right or claim against Borrower or, except as set forth in Section 2.10, against any other Subsidiary of Borrower, and each such agreement now existing or hereafter entered into (except Section 2.10) is and shall be void;

(b) Release. Such Guarantor forever waives and releases, and agrees never to sue upon, any such right or claim against Borrower and, except as set forth in Section 2.10, against any other Subsidiary of Borrower, whether or not the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full;

(c) Capital Contribution. Each payment made by such Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be a contribution to the capital of Borrower, and no such payment shall give rise to any claim (as that term is defined in the Bankruptcy Code) in favor of such Guarantor against Borrower;

(d) Subordination of Contribution Rights. Each Guarantor reserves, as against each other Guarantor, its right of contribution under Section 2.10 but agrees that all such contribution rights shall be included among the Subordinated Liabilities; and

(e) Deferral of Other Rights and Claims. Until all obligations of the Lenders to extend credit to Borrower have expired or been terminated and all the Guaranteed Obligations

Page 106

have been paid in full, such Guarantor will not demand, sue for, accept or receive any payment or transfer on account of any such right or claim from any Person (other than Borrower and its Subsidiaries) liable for the payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 2.8 Subordination Provisions.

(a) Subordination. Any and all present and future debts, liabilities and obligations of every type and description (whether for money borrowed, on intercompany accounts, for provision of goods or services, under tax sharing or contribution agreements or on account of any other transaction, agreement, occurrence or event and whether absolute or contingent, direct or indirect, matured or unmatured, liquidated or unliquidated, created directly or acquired from another, or sole, joint, several or joint and several) of Borrower now outstanding or hereafter incurred or owed to any Guarantor (the "Subordinated Liabilities") shall be, and hereby are, subordinated to full and final payment of the Guaranteed Obligations.

(b) Prohibited Payments. No Guarantor will demand, sue for, accept or receive, or cause or permit any other Person to make, any payment on or transfer of property on account of any Subordinated Liabilities except to the extent payment is permitted at the time under Section 7.02 of the Credit Agreement.

(c) No Liens or Transfers. No Guarantor will demand, accept or hold any Lien upon any real or personal property of Borrower as security for any of the Subordinated Liabilities and agrees that any such Lien shall be void.

(d) Insolvency Proceedings. In any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations shall be entitled to receive payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on or in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations, or provision shall be made for such payment in money or money's worth, before any Guarantor is entitled to receive any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, on account of any of the Subordinated Liabilities, and to that end the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations shall be entitled to receive, for application to the payment thereof, all payments and distributions of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (including any such payment or distribution which may be payable or deliverable by reason of the payment of any other debt or liability of Borrower being subordinated to the payment of the Subordinated Liabilities), which may be payable or deliverable in respect of the Subordinated Liabilities in any such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

Page 107

(e) Disallowed Post-Commencement Interest and Expenses. If in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding
(i) any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities (including any such payment or distribution which may be payable or deliverable by reason of the payment of any other debt or liability of Borrower being subordinated to the payment of the Subordinated Liabilities) is payable or deliverable in respect of the Subordinated Liabilities, and (ii) the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations are not otherwise entitled to receive such payment or distribution pursuant to Section 2.8(d), and (iii) any amount remains unpaid to any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations on account of any Disallowed Post-Commencement Interest and Expenses, then the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations shall be entitled to receive payment of all such unpaid Disallowed Post- Commencement Interest and Expenses from and out of any and all such payments and distributions in respect of the Subordinated Liabilities.

(f) Held in Trust. If any payment, transfer or distribution is made to any Guarantor upon any Subordinated Liabilities that is not permitted to be made under this Section 2.8 or that the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations are entitled to receive under this Section 2.8, such Guarantor shall receive and hold the same in trust, as trustee for the benefit of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations, and shall forthwith transfer and deliver the same to Agent, in precisely the form received (except for any required endorsement), for application to the payment of Guaranteed Obligations or any unpaid Disallowed Post- Commencement Interest and Expenses.

(g) Claims in Bankruptcy. Each Guarantor will file all claims against Borrower in any Liquidation or Insolvency Proceeding in which the filing of claims is required or permitted by law upon any of the Subordinated Liabilities and will assign to Agent, for the benefit of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations, all rights of such Guarantor thereunder. If any Guarantor does not file any such claim at least 30 days prior to any applicable claims bar date, Agent is hereby authorized (but shall not be obligated), as attorney-in-fact for such Guarantor with full power of substitution, either to file such claim or proof thereof in the name of such Guarantor or, at Agent's option, to assign the claim and cause the claim or proof thereof to be filed by an agent or nominee. Agent and its agents and nominees shall have the sole right, but no obligation, to accept or reject any plan proposed in such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and to cast any votes and to take any other action with respect to all claims upon any of the Subordinated Liabilities.

(h) Subordination Effective and not Impaired. This
Section 2.8 shall remain effective for so long as this Guaranty

Page 108

is continuing and thereafter for so long as any Guaranteed Obligation is outstanding. Each Guarantor's obligations under this Section 2.8 (i) shall be absolute and unconditional as set forth in Section 2.3, irrevocable and continuing as set forth in
Section 2.4, subject to reinstatement as set forth in Section 2.5, and not be affected or impaired by any of the matters waived in Section 2.6, (ii) shall be subject to the provisions of Article V, and (iii) shall otherwise be as equally enduring and free from defenses as such Guarantor's liability under this Guaranty.

SECTION 2.9 Fraudulent Transfer Limitation. If, in any action to enforce this Guaranty or any proceeding to allow or adjudicate a claim under this Guaranty, a court of competent jurisdiction determines that enforcement of this Guaranty against any Guarantor for the full amount of the Guaranteed Obligations is not lawful under, or would be subject to avoidance under, Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any applicable provision of comparable state law, the liability of such Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be limited to the maximum amount lawful and not subject to avoidance under such law.

SECTION 2.10 Contribution among Guarantors. The Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves, in a fair and equitable manner, their rights of contribution from each other when any payment is made by one of the Guarantors under this Guaranty. Accordingly, if any payment is made by a Guarantor under this Guaranty (a "Funding Guarantor") that exceeds its Fair Share, the Funding Guarantor shall be entitled to a contribution from each other Guarantor in the amount of such other Guarantor's Fair Share Shortfall, so that all such contributions shall cause each Guarantor's Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share. For these purposes:

(a) "Fair Share" means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (i) the ratio of (x) the Adjusted Maximum Amount of such Guarantor to (y) the aggregate Adjusted Maximum Amounts of all Guarantors, multiplied by (ii) the aggregate amount paid on or before such date by all Funding Guarantors under this Guaranty.

(b) "Fair Share Shortfall" means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, the excess, if any, of the Fair Share of such Guarantor over the Aggregate Payments of such Guarantor.

(c) "Adjusted Maximum Amount" means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the liability of such Guarantor under this Guaranty, limited to the extent required under Section 2.9 (except that, for purposes solely of this calculation, any assets or

Page 109

liabilities arising by virtue of any rights to or obligations of contribution under this Section 2.10 shall not be counted as assets or liabilities of such Guarantor).

(d) "Aggregate Payments" means, with respect to a Guarantor as of any date f determination, the aggregate net amount of all payments made on or before such date by such Guarantor under this Guaranty (including, without limitation, under this Section 2.10).

The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the Funding Guarantor. The allocation and right of contribution among the Guarantors set forth in this Section 2.10 shall not be construed to limit in any way the liability of any Guarantor under this Guaranty to the Holders of the Guaranteed Obligations.

SECTION 2.11 Joint and Several Obligation. This Guaranty and all liabilities of each Guarantor hereunder shall be the joint and several obligation of each Guarantor and may be freely enforced against each Guarantor, for the full amount of the Guaranteed Obligations (subject to Section 2.9), without regard to whether enforcement is sought or available against any other Guarantor.

ARTICLE III

Page 110

If any request is made or consent is given by the Required Banks pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Credit Agreement for a declaration by Agent that the Notes are immediately due and payable, or if the Notes become immediately due and payable pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Credit Agreement, each Lender shall have the right at any time and from time to time thereafter, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other liability at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any and all liability of such Guarantor under this Guaranty, whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Guaranty and even though such liability may then be contingent and unmatured. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the effected Guarantor after any such set-off and application made by such Lender, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

SECTION 3.8 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, and any single or partial exercise of any right hereunder shall not preclude any other or further exercise of any other right or of the same right as to any other matter or on a subsequent occasion.

SECTION 3.9 Remedies Cumulative. All rights, powers and remedies of each Holder of Guaranteed Obligations under this Guaranty, under any other agreement now or at any time hereafter in effect between any such Holder and each and all of the Guarantors (whether relating to the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise) or now

This Guaranty may be enforced severally and successively by any one or more of the Holders of Guaranteed Obligations in one or more actions, whether independent, concurrent, joint, successive or otherwise.

Acceptance of or acquiescence in a course of performance rendered under this Guaranty or any other dealings between any Guarantor and any Holder of Guaranteed Obligations shall not be relevant to determine the meaning of this Guaranty even though the accepting or acquiescing party had knowledge of the nature of the performance and opportunity for objection.

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors approved the First Amendment to the Plan on June 12, 1997; and

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has determined that it is appropriate and in the best interests of the Company to further amend the Plan as set forth herein;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals, the Plan is hereby amended as set forth herein:

1. Capitalized terms used herein which are not otherwise defined herein but are defined in the Plan shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Plan.

2. Section 10.1 of the Plan is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

"10.1 Non-Transferability. No Option or Performance Award or Restricted Stock (each, an "Award") under this Plan may be sold, pledged, assigned or transferred in any manner other than by a qualified domestic relations order as defined by the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or the rules thereunder ("QDRO") or by will or the laws of descent and distribution unless and until such Award has been exercised, or the shares underlying such Award have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such shares have lapsed. In the case of Options granted to Independent Directors, however, an Optionee who is an Independent Director may transfer an Option to a Permitted Transferee (as defined below) to the extent permitted by any applicable law or regulations and subject to the following terms and conditions:

(a) An Option transferred to a Permitted Transferee shall not be assignable or transferable by the Permitted Transferee other than by a QDRO or by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

Page 1

(c) The Optionee and the Permitted Transferee shall execute any and all documents reasonably requested by the Board, including without limitation documents to (i) confirm the status of the transferee as a Permitted Transferee, (ii) satisfy any requirements for an exemption for the transfer under applicable federal and state securities laws and (iii) evidence the transfer.

(d) Shares of Common Stock acquired by a Permitted Transferee through exercise of an Option have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or any state securities act and may not be transferred, nor will any assignee or transferee thereof be recognized as an owner of such shares of Common Stock for any purpose, unless a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable state securities act with respect to such shares shall then be in effect or unless the availability of an exemption from registration with respect to any proposed transfer or disposition of such shares shall be established to the satisfaction of counsel for the Company.

As used in this Section 10.1, "Permitted Transferee" shall mean (i) one or more of the following family members of an Optionee:
spouse, former spouse, child (whether natural or adopted), stepchild, any other lineal descendant of the Optionee, (ii) a trust, partnership or other entity established and existing for the sole benefit of, or under the sole control of, one or more of the above family members of the Optionee, or (iii) any other transferee specifically approved by the Board after taking into account any state or federal tax or securities laws applicable to transferable Options.

No Award or interest or right therein shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of the holder thereof or his successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, encumbrance, assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy), and any attempted disposition thereof shall be null and void and of no effect, except to the extent that such disposition is permitted by the preceding provisions of this Section 10.1.

Exhibit 10.10

REALTY INCOME CORPORATION
MANAGEMENT INCENTIVE PLAN

I. INTRODUCTION

The Realty Income Corporation Management Incentive Plan is an annual, stock and cash-based incentive plan that is designed to ensure that Realty Income Corporation (Realty Income) is managed in keeping with the best short- and long-term interests of its shareholders and employees. In light of this objective, the plan rewards certain executives for the achievement of key corporate and individual- specific performance objectives. A participant's total award shall be determined on the basis of annual performance and shall be made in the form of restricted stock, stock options and cash, which encourage executives to focus on Realty Income Corporation's long-term success and shareholder interests. This document sets forth all terms and conditions of the plan as approved by the Board of Directors.

II. DEFINITIONS

For the purposes of the Plan, the following terms shall have the meaning set forth below:

"Board" means the Board of Directors of Realty Income.

"CEO" means the Chief Executive Officer of Realty Income.

"Change in Control" means the acquisition of shares of Realty Income Common Stock by any person, entity or group in a transaction or series of transactions, resulting in the beneficial ownership of more than thirty percent of the outstanding Common Stock of Realty Income; a merger, consolidation or sale of substantially all the assets of Realty Income; a contested election of directors of Realty Income resulting in a majority of the nominees recommended by the Board of Directors of Realty Income not being elected; a change in composition within a sixty day period of a majority of Realty Income's Board of Directors; or any other event which results in a change of voting power sufficient to elect a majority of the Board of Directors of Realty Income.

"Committee" means the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Realty Income.

"Date of Grant" means December 31 of the year for which performance is being measured.

"Exercise Price" of a Realty Income stock option means the price at which a share of Realty Income common stock can be purchased over a specified option term.

Page 1

"Funds from Operations" or "FFO" means net income excluding gain or loss from sales of properties, plus provision for impairment losses, plus depreciation and amortization. FFO per share means total FFO for a Performance Period divided by the average number of Common Shares outstanding for the Performance Period.

"Grant Price" means the per share market value of Realty Income common stock on the date a Total Award is made.

"Individual-Specific" means individual performance measures and/or objectives that can determine a portion of a Participant's Total Award.

"Maximum Award" means a Participant's maximum award for a certain portion of the Plan for a Performance Period. Maximum Award is determined by the Committee under the Plan and typically is expressed as a percentage of a Participant's Target Award.

"Maximum Performance" means the performance objective at or above which a Maximum Award is made for a certain portion of the Plan.

"Minimum Award" means a Participant's minimum award for a certain portion of the Plan for a Performance Period. Minimum Award is determined by the Committee under the Plan and typically is expressed as a percentage of a Participant's Target Award.

"Minimum Performance" means the performance objective at which a Minimum Award is made for a certain portion of the Plan and below which no award is made for that portion of the Plan.

"Participant" means any executive or key employee of Realty Income selected by the Committee to participate in the Plan.

"Peer Group" means the group of peer companies used in Realty Income's proxy statement performance graph.

"Performance Period" means a Realty Income fiscal year for which Total Awards under the Plan are made.

"Plan" means the Realty Income Corporation Management Incentive Plan.

"President" means the President of Realty Income.

"Target Award" means a Participant's target award for a certain portion of the Plan for a Performance Period. Target Award for each portion of the Plan is determined on the basis of the weight assigned to that portion of the Plan (i.e., a certain performance measure) and a Participant's Target Total Award.

Page 2

"Target Total Award" means a Participant's target Total Award for a Performance Period, as determined by the Committee under the Plan. Target Total Award typically is expressed as a percentage of a Participant's base salary.

"Target Performance" means the performance objective at which a Target Award is made for a certain portion of the Plan.

"Total Award" means a stock and cash-based award made by the Board to any Plan Participant for performance on FFO, TSR, and Individual-Specific objectives for a Performance Period.

"Total Shareholder Return" or "TSR" means a shareholder's annual percentage return on an investment in stock, including stock appreciation and dividends. TSR is calculated by adding Realty Income's stock price on the last day of a Performance Period to total dividends for that Performance Period, dividing the resulting value by Realty Income's stock price on the last day of the preceding Performance Period, and subtracting one from the resulting value.

III. BASIC APPROACH

The Plan rewards Participants for the achievement of three performance objectives:

A predetermined FFO per share objective A predetermined measure of TSR relative to the Peer Group Individual-Specific objectives.

The Committee shall set a Target Total Award for each Participant that is expressed as a percentage of the Participant's base salary. A Target Total Award is set on the basis of competitive pay practices and the scope of a Participant's responsibilities. Each performance objective carries a certain weight in determining a Participant's actual Total Award. FFO performance carries a weight of 60%, TSR performance carries a weight of 20%, and Individual-Specific performance carries a weight of 20% of the Total Award.

FFO PER SHARE PERFORMANCE. FFO per share performance shall be measured by the amount of increase in FFO per share for the Performance Period over the previous Performance Period. Performance awards for percentage FFO growth shall be determined as set forth on Exhibit "1," attached hereto and incorporated herein.

Page 3

RELATIVE TSR PERFORMANCE. TSR performance shall be measured as follows:

                                         Performance Level
                                   ------------------------------
TSR Performance
TSR Objective (e.g., TSR Rank
  Relative to Peer Group)          Third       Second       First
Percentage of Target Award Made
  for TSR Performance               50%          100%        150%

No award shall be made to Participants for the relative TSR portion of the Plan if actual TSR is zero or negative, regardless of TSR performance vis-a-vis the Peer Group for the Performance Period.

INDIVIDUAL-SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. At the beginning of a Performance Period, the CEO and the Board shall work with the Participants to develop their Individual-Specific objectives. Following the end of each Performance Period, the CEO shall make recommendations to the Committee on the percentage of Target Award that should be paid to a Participant on the basis of whether individual performance is below expectations, meets expectations, or exceeds expectations. The individual portion of the award shall be between 0% and 150%, which percentage shall be determined by the Committee.

After actual performance and corresponding awards for each portion of the Plan are determined, a Participant's Total Award shall be calculated as the sum of awards from each portion of the Plan. Straight-line interpolation shall be used to determine award levels for actual performance between performance increments for FFO performance. A Participant shall receive no award on a performance measure if actual performance for that measure is below the Minimum Performance objective. A Participant shall receive the Maximum Award on a performance measure if actual performance for that measure is at or above the Maximum Performance objective.

After a Participant's Total Award (up to 100% of the Target Total Award) is calculated, 25% of the Participant's Total Award shall be paid in cash, 25% shall be in the form of restricted stock and 50% shall be made in the form of stock options. All awards above the Target Total Award level shall be in the form of stock options. The number of underlying shares that is granted in the form of restricted stock shall be determined by dividing 25% of the Total Award (up to the Target Total Award level) by Realty Income's stock price (the Grant Price) on the Date of Grant. The number of underlying shares that is granted in the form of stock options shall be determined by dividing the balance of the Total Award, less the amount paid in cash, by the expected value of a Realty Income stock option on the Date of Grant (using the same Grant Price). The expected value of a Realty Income stock option shall be estimated using the binomial option valuation formula, a widely accepted formula for determining the

Page 4

expected value of stock options. The Exercise Price of stock options shall equal the Grant Price.

The number of restricted stock and stock option shares granted shall be rounded to the nearest 100. The Table below provides an example of how the number of underlying shares granted in the form of restricted stock and stock options is determined for a Participant who earns an assumed Total Award of $40,000. Assuming the Total Award does not exceed the Target Award, $10,000 (25%) would be paid in cash, and the balance would be computed as follows:

RS: restricted stock; SO: stock option.

(1) Assumed binomial option value of $5.76 was determined using assumptions for interest rate, stock volatility, dividend yield, and option term.

All restricted stock and stock option grants made pursuant to the Plan shall be made in accordance with the provisions of Realty Income's Stock Incentive Plan.

IV. ASSESSMENT OF PERFORMANCE

Actual performance for FFO, TSR, and Individual-Specific measures shall be determined as of the last day of a Performance Period. Actual performance shall be assessed as soon as feasible after the end of a Performance Period.

Page 5

V. ADJUSTMENT OF PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES

The Committee shall have the authority to change performance objectives from one Performance Period to another or in the event of special circumstances (e.g., in the event that a company is added to or omitted from the Peer Group that is used to determine relative TSR performance).

At the beginning of each Performance Period (i.e., within the first three months of the Performance Period), the Board and/or CEO shall work with other Participants to develop their Individual-Specific objectives. The Board and/or CEO shall have the authority to change performance objectives from one Performance Period to another or in the event of special circumstances (e.g., in the event that a Participant's position or scope of responsibilities change).

VI. ADJUSTMENT OF AWARDS LEVELS

The Committee shall set Participants' Target Total Award, Minimum Award, Target Award, and Maximum Award levels under the Plan and shall have the authority to adjust award levels on the basis of competitive practices and/or Realty Income's business objectives.

VII. TIMING OF TOTAL AWARD PAYMENTS

All Total Awards shall be made as soon as feasible after all performance results for the Performance Period are available. The number of underlying shares for restricted stock and stock options that are granted shall be determined on the basis of Realty Income's stock price (the Grant Price) on the Date of Grant.

VIII. VESTING OF TOTAL AWARDS

Restricted stock and stock options that comprise a Total Award shall vest over three years, with one-third of the Total Award vesting one year after the Date of Grant, one-third vesting two years after the Date of Grant, and one-third vesting three years after the Date of Grant. Dividends on the restricted stock portion of a Total Award shall be payable from the Date of Grant.

IX. PARTICIPATION

Participation in the Plan shall be limited to executives and key employees who have a significant impact on the growth and profitability of Realty Income. The CEO shall make recommendations to the Committee on which executives and key employees should participate in the Plan. The Committee shall have the authority to approve employees for participation in the Plan.

Page 6

X. SEPARATION OF EMPLOYMENT

Payment of a Total Award under the Plan shall be conditioned on a Participant's continued employment with Realty Income during the entire Performance Period.

SEPARATION OF EMPLOYMENT FOR CAUSE. In the event that a Participant's employment with Realty Income is terminated for a reason other than death, disability, retirement, or a Change in Control, any Total Award for the current, incomplete Performance Period shall be forfeited.

SEPARATION OF EMPLOYMENT WITHOUT CAUSE. If employment ends by reason of death, disability, retirement, or a Change in Control, a Total Award shall be paid subject to the conditions of the Plan and Committee approval, except that the Total Award shall be prorated on the basis of the number of months in the Performance Period actually completed prior to said death, disability, retirement, or Change in Control.

TIMING AND FORM OF PAYMENT. If employment ends by reason of death, disability, or retirement, such a Total Award shall be payable in cash at the same time as those paid to Participants who complete the Performance Period (as described in Section VII above).

If employment ends by reason of a Change in Control, a prorated Target Total Award shall be payable in cash immediately. The prorated Target Total Award shall be made on the basis of the number of months in the Performance Period actually completed prior to the Change in Control.

NONVESTED STOCK AWARDS EARNED FROM PRECEDING PERFORMANCE PERIODS. If employment ends by reason of death, disability, retirement, or a Change in Control, all nonvested restricted stock and stock options earned in preceding Performance Periods shall vest in accordance with the provisions of Realty Income's Stock Incentive Plan.

GRANT OF OPTION

SECTION 2.1 - GRANT OF OPTION

In consideration of the Optionee's agreement to serve as an Independent Director of the Company or its Subsidiaries until the next annual meeting of stockholders of the Company and for other good and valuable consideration, on the date hereof the Company irrevocably grants to the Optionee the option to purchase any part or all of an aggregate of 5,000 shares of its $1.00 par value Common Stock upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.

SECTION 2.2 - PURCHASE PRICE

The purchase price of the shares of stock covered by the Option shall be $25.375 per share (which is the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date of the granting of this Option) without commission or other charge.

SECTION 2.3 - CONSIDERATION TO COMPANY

In consideration of the granting of this Option by the Company, the Optionee agrees to render faithful and efficient services to the Company or a Subsidiary, with such duties and responsibilities as the Company shall from time to time prescribe, until the next annual meeting of stockholders of the Company. Nothing in the Plan or this Agreement shall confer upon any Optionee any right to continue as a director of the Company, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company and any Subsidiary, which are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge the Optionee at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without good cause.

SECTION 2.4 - ADJUSTMENTS IN OPTION

(a) In the event that the outstanding shares of the stock subject to the Option are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares of the Company or other securities of the Company, or of another corporation, by reason of reorganization, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock splitup, stock dividend or combination of shares, the Board shall make an appropriate and equitable adjustment in the number and kind of shares as to which the Option, or portions thereof then unexercised, shall be exercisable, to the end that after such event the Optionee's proportionate interest shall be maintained as before the occurrence of such event. Such adjustment in the Option may include any necessary corresponding adjustment in the Option price per share, but shall be made without change in the total price applicable to the unexercised portion of the Option (except for any change in the aggregate price resulting from rounding-off of

Page 4

share quantities or prices). Any such adjustment made by the Board shall be final and binding upon the Optionee, the Company and all other interested persons.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of such a reorganization, merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reclassification, stock splitup, stock dividend or combination, or other adjustment or event which results in shares of Common Stock being exchanged for or converted into cash, securities or other property, the Company will have the right to terminate the Plan as of the date of the exchange or conversion, in which case all options, rights and other awards under this Plan shall become the right to receive such cash, securities or other property, net of any applicable exercise price.

(c) In the event of a "spin-off" or other substantial distribution of assets of the Company which has a material diminutive effect upon the Fair Market Value of the Company's Common Stock, the Board may in its discretion make an appropriate and equitable adjustment to the Option to reflect such diminution.

ARTICLE III
PERIOD OF EXERCISABILITY

SECTION 3.1 - COMMENCEMENT OF EXERCISABILITY

(a) Subject to Section 5.6, the Option shall become exercisable one (1) year after the date the Option is granted.

(b) No portion of the Option which is unexercisable at Termination of Directorship shall thereafter become exercisable.

SECTION 3.2 - DURATION OF EXERCISABILITY

Each Option shall remain exercisable until it becomes unexercisable under Section 3.3.

SECTION 3.3 - EXPIRATION OF OPTION

The Option may not be exercised to any extent by anyone after the first to occur of the following events:

(a) The expiration of 10 years from the date the Option was granted; or

(b) The expiration of one year from the date of the Optionee's Termination of Directorship; or

Page 5

(c) The effective date of either the merger or

consolidation of the Company with or into another
corporation, the exchange of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Company for the securities of another
corporation, the acquisition by another corporation or
person of all or substantially all of the Company's assets
or 80% or more of the Company's then outstanding voting
stock, or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company,
unless the Board waives this provision in connection with
such transaction and such waiver is consistent with Rule
16b-3.  At least 10 days prior to the effective date of such
merger, consolidation, exchange, acquisition, liquidation or
dissolution, the Committee or the Board shall give the
Optionee notice of such event if the Option has then neither
been fully exercised nor become unexercisable under this
Section 3.3.

SECTION 3.4 - ACCELERATION OF EXERCISABILITY

To the extent consistent with the requirements of Rule 16b-3, in the event of the merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation, the exchange of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company for the securities of another corporation, the acquisition by another corporation or person of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or 80% or more of the Company's then outstanding voting stock, or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the Board may, in its absolute discretion and upon such terms and conditions as it deems appropriate, provide by resolution, adopted prior to such event and incorporated in the notice referred to in
Section 3.3(f), that at some time prior to the effective date of such event this Option shall be exercisable as to all the shares covered hereby, notwithstanding that this Option may not yet have become fully exercisable under Section 3.1(a); provided, however, that this acceleration of exercisability shall not take place if:

(a) This Option becomes unexercisable under Section 3.3 prior to said effective date; or

(b) In connection with such an event, provision is made for an assumption of this Option or a substitution therefor of a new option by an employer corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such corporation; and

provided, further, that nothing in this Section 3.4 shall make this Option exercisable if it is otherwise unexercisable by reason of
Section 5.6.

The Board may make such determinations and adopt such rules and conditions as it, in its absolute discretion, deems appropriate in connection with such acceleration of exercisability, including, but not by way of limitation, provisions to ensure that any such acceleration and resulting exercise shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the contemplated corporate transaction.

Page 6

None of the foregoing discretionary terms of this Section shall be permitted to the extent that such discretion would be inconsistent with the requirements of Rule 16b-3.

SECTION 3.5 - ACCELERATION OF EXERCISABILITY UPON RETIREMENT

To the extent consistent with the requirements of Rule 16b-3, this Option shall be exercisable as to all the shares covered hereby, notwithstanding that this Option may not yet have become fully exercisable under Section 3.1(a), upon the retirement of the Optionee in accordance with the Company's retirement policy applicable to Directors.

ARTICLE IV
EXERCISE OF OPTION

SECTION 4.1 - PERSON ELIGIBLE TO EXERCISE

Unless the Option has been transferred in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.2 herein, during the lifetime of the Optionee, only he (or, in the event of a disability or incapacity, his legal representative) may exercise the Option or any portion thereof, unless it has been disposed of pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined by the Code or Title 1 of Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, or the rules thereunder ("QDRO"), in which case the Option shall be exercisable only by the beneficiary of the QDRO to the same extent it would have been exercisable by the Optionee. After the death of the Optionee, any exercisable portion of the Option may, prior to the time when the Option becomes unexercisable under Section 3.3, be exercised by his personal representative or by any person empowered to do so under the deceased Optionee's will or under the then applicable laws of descent and distribution.

SECTION 4.2 - PARTIAL EXERCISE

Any exercisable portion of the Option or the entire Option, if then wholly exercisable, may be exercised in whole or in part at any time prior to the time when the Option or portion thereof becomes unexercisable under Section 3.3; provided, however, that each partial exercise shall be for not less than 100 shares or the remaining number of shares if less than 100 and shall be for whole shares only.

SECTION 4.3 - MANNER OF EXERCISE

The Option, or any exercisable portion thereof, may be exercised solely by delivery to the Secretary or his office of all of the following prior to the time when the Option or such portion becomes unexercisable under Section 3.3:

Page 7

(a) Notice in writing signed by the Optionee or the

     other person then entitled to exercise the Option or
     portion, stating that the Option or portion is thereby
     exercised, such notice complying with all applicable rules
     established by the Committee or the Board; and

(b)          (i)  Full payment (in cash) for the shares with
     respect to which such Option or portion is exercised;

          (ii)  With the consent of the Board, payment delayed
     for up to thirty (30) days from the date the Option, or
     portion thereof, is exercised; or

          (iii)  With the consent of the Board, (A) shares of the
     Company's Common Stock owned by the Optionee duly endorsed
     for transfer to the Company or (B) subject to the timing
     requirements of Section 4.4, shares of the Company's Common
     Stock issuable to the Optionee upon exercise of the Option,
     with a Fair Market Value on the date of Option exercise
     equal to the aggregate purchase price of the shares with
     respect to which such Option or portion is exercised; or

          (iv)  With the consent of the Board, property of any
     kind which constitutes good and valuable consideration; or

          (v)  With the consent of the Board, a full recourse
     promissory note bearing interest (at no less than such rate
     as shall then preclude the imputation of interest under the
     Code or successor provision) and payable upon such terms as
     may be prescribed by the Committee or the Board.  The
     Committee or the Board may also prescribe the form of such
     note and the security to be given for such note.  The Option
     may not be exercised, however, by delivery of a promissory
     note or by a loan from the Company when or where such loan
     or other extension of credit is prohibited by law; or

          (vi)  With the consent of the Board, any combination of
     the consideration provided in the foregoing subparagraphs
     (iii), (iv) and (v); and

(c)          A bona fide written representation and agreement, in
     a form satisfactory to the Committee or the Board, signed by
     the Optionee or other person then entitled to exercise such
     Option or portion, stating that the shares of stock are
     being acquired for his own account, for investment and
     without any present intention of distributing or reselling
     said shares or any of them except as may be permitted under
     the Securities Act and then applicable rules and regulations
     thereunder, and that the Optionee or other person then
     entitled to exercise such Option or portion will indemnify
     the Company against and hold it free and harmless from any
     loss, damage, expense or liability resulting to the Company

                                                          Page 8

     if any sale or distribution of the shares by such person is
     contrary to the representation and agreement referred to
     above.  The Committee or the Board may, in its absolute
     discretion, take whatever additional actions it deems
     appropriate to insure the observance and performance of such
     representation and agreement and to effect compliance with
     the Securities Act and any other federal or state securities
     laws or regulations.  Without limiting the generality of the
     foregoing, the Committee or the Board may require an opinion
     of counsel acceptable to it to the effect that any
     subsequent transfer of shares acquired on an Option exercise
     does not violate the Securities Act, and may issue
     stop-transfer orders covering such shares.  Share
     certificates evidencing stock issued on exercise of this
     Option shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the
     provisions of this subsection (c) and the agreements herein.
     The written representation and agreement referred to in the
     first sentence of this subsection (c) shall, however, not be
     required if the shares to be issued pursuant to such
     exercise have been registered under the Securities Act, and
     such registration is then effective in respect of such
     shares; and

(d)          Full payment to the Company (or other employer
     corporation) of all amounts which, under federal, state or
     local tax law, it is required to withhold upon exercise of
     the Option; with the consent of the Board, (i) shares of the
     Company's Common Stock owned by the Optionee duly endorsed
     for transfer, or (ii) subject to the timing requirements of
     Section 4.4, shares of the Company's Common Stock issuable
     to the Optionee upon exercise of the Option, having a Fair
     Market Value at the date of Option exercise equal to the
     sums required to be withheld, may be used to make all or
     part of such payment; and

(e)          In the event the Option or portion shall be
