monthly dividend 68 times since its listing on the New York Stock Exchange in 1994
Realty Income has increased its annualized dividend 102%, from $0.90 per share in 1994 to
$1.82 per share today; upon the closing of the transaction the dividend is expected to increase
another
7%
to

Compelling Growth Potential to Drive Future
Stockholder Value
The combined company will be significantly larger and financially stronger than its competitors
and will have one of the lowest cost of capital in a sector where low cost capital creates
competitive advantage
The combined company’s cost of capital advantage positions it to grow earnings while
increasing dividends
The combined company’s greater scale will facilitate the execution of large transactions through
improved access to capital, further enhancing the company’s ability to realize value in the
relatively fragmented net lease real estate sector
As a Result of the Merger,  ARCT Stockholders Stand to Benefit from Greater Risk Adjusted
Returns Due to the Enhanced Stability and Diversity of the Combined Property Portfolio

“Points for Solid Execution: Sure, commercial real estate values have gone up since ARCT bought most of its properties. But if
they have appreciated at the same pace as, say, the typical strip center owned by the REITs in our coverage universe, then the
weighted average cap rate at today’s values would be about 7.3%. The giant gap between that figure and the 5.9% cap rate
ARCT management is selling the company for suggests great execution by them on behalf of their shareholders.”

Forward-Looking Statements

Information set forth herein (including information included or incorporated by reference herein) contains “forward-looking statements” (as defined in Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), which reflect Realty Income’s and ARCT’s expectations regarding future events. The forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to whether and when the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement will be consummated, the new combined company’s plans, market and other expectations, objectives, intentions and other statements that are not historical facts.

The following additional factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ from those set forth in the forward-looking statements: the ability to obtain regulatory approvals for the transaction and the approval of the merger agreement by the stockholders of both parties; unexpected costs or unexpected liabilities that may arise from the transaction, whether or not consummated; the inability to retain key personnel; continuation or deterioration of current market conditions; future regulatory or legislative actions that could adversely affect the companies; and the business plans of the customers of the respective parties. Additional factors that may affect future results are contained in Realty Income’s and ARCT’s filings with the SEC, which are available at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Realty Income and ARCT disclaim any obligation to update and revise statements contained in these materials based on new information or otherwise.
