On December 13, 2010, Realty Income Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Credit Agreement among the Company, as Borrower and the Lenders party thereto, including Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, each of Bank of America, N.A. and Regions Bank, as Co-Syndication Agents and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Documentation Agent, and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as Sole Lead Arranger, and Union Bank, N.A., U.S. Bank National Association, BB&T Capital Markets, Capital One Bank and Raymond James Bank (the “Credit Agreement”). In addition, certain subsidiaries of the Company are guarantors of the Credit Agreement. The term of the Credit Agreement will begin on December 13, 2010 and replace the Company’s existing $355 million acquisition credit facility. The Credit Agreement provides for a $425 million unsecured revolving credit facility maturing March 31, 2014. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at the LIBOR rate or the base rate, each as defined in the Credit Agreement, plus an applicable margin. The initial applicable margin equals 1.85% for LIBOR loans based on the Company’s current investment grade credit ratings. An applicable commitment fee is payable on the then revolving committed amount, as defined in the Credit Agreement, based on the Company’s current debt ratings. The initial applicable commitment fee equals 0.35% per annum based on the Company’s current debt ratings. As described in the copy of the Credit Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto, the Credit Agreement contains customary and other affirmative covenants, including financial reporting requirements, negative covenants, including maintenance of certain financial requirements, and other customary events of default.
