NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

March 31, 2013

(Unaudited)

Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Organization and Nature of Business – National Retail Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, is a fully integrated real estate investment trust (“REIT”) formed in 1984. The term “NNN” and the “Company” refer to National Retail Properties, Inc. and all of its consolidated subsidiaries. NNN has elected to treat certain subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries. These taxable subsidiaries and their majority owned and controlled subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “TRS.”

NNN's assets include: real estate, mortgages and notes receivable, and commercial mortgage residual interests. NNN acquires, owns, invests in and develops properties that are leased primarily to retail tenants under long-term net leases and primarily held for investment (“Properties” or “Property Portfolio”).



	March 31, 2013
Property Portfolio:
Total properties	1,636
Gross leasable area (square feet)	19,267,000
States	47

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. Amounts as of December 31, 2012, included in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, included herein, should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as well as Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in NNN's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Principles of Consolidation – NNN’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of each of the respective majority owned and controlled affiliates, including transactions whereby NNN has been determined to be the primary beneficiary in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance included in Consolidation. All significant intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated. NNN applies the equity method of accounting to investments in partnerships and joint ventures that are not subject to control by NNN due to the significance of rights held by other parties.

Real Estate Portfolio – NNN records the acquisition of real estate which is not subject to a lease at cost, including acquisition and closing costs. The cost of properties developed by NNN includes direct and indirect costs of construction, property taxes, interest and other miscellaneous costs incurred during the development period until the project is substantially complete and available for occupancy. During the quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, NNN recorded $219,000 and $431,000, respectively, in capitalized interest.

Purchase Accounting for Acquisition of Real Estate Subject to a Lease – In accordance with the FASB guidance on business combinations, the fair value of the real estate acquired with in-place leases is allocated to the acquired tangible assets, consisting of land, building and tenant improvements, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above-market and below-market leases, value of in-place leases and value of tenant relationships, based in each case on their relative fair values. Acquisition costs incurred in connection with a business combination are expensed when incurred.

The fair value of the tangible assets of an acquired leased property is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant, and the “as-if-vacant” value is then allocated to land, building and tenant improvements based on the determination of the fair values of these assets. The as-if-vacant fair value of a property is provided to management by a qualified appraiser.

In allocating the fair value of the identified intangible assets and liabilities of an acquired property, above-market and below-market in-place lease values are recorded as other assets or liabilities based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant

to the in-place leases, and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease, including the probability of renewal periods. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the remaining terms of the respective leases. The capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to rental income over the initial term unless the Company believes that it is likely that the tenant would renew the option whereby the Company would amortize the value attributable to the renewal over the renewal period.

The aggregate value of other acquired intangible assets, consisting of in-place leases, is measured by the excess of (i) the purchase price paid for a property after adjusting existing in-place leases to market rental rates over (ii) the estimated fair value of the property as-if-vacant, determined as set forth above. The value of in-place leases exclusive of the value of above-market and below-market in-place leases is amortized to expense over the remaining non-cancelable periods of the respective leases. If a lease were to be terminated prior to its stated expiration, all unamortized amounts relating to that lease would be written off. The value of tenant relationships is reviewed on individual transactions to determine if future value was derived from the acquisition.

Intangible assets and liabilities consisted of the following as of (in thousands):



	March 31, 2013		December 31, 2012
Intangible lease assets (included in Other assets):
Value of above market in-place leases, net	$	6,447	$	6,679
Value of in-place leases, net	36,735		37,889
Intangible lease liabilities (included in Other liabilities):
Value of below market in-place leases, net	22,851		23,708

Investment in an Unconsolidated Affiliate – NNN accounts for its investment in an unconsolidated affiliate under the equity method of accounting. In September 2007, NNN entered into a joint venture, NNN Retail Properties Fund I LLC (the “NNN Crow JV”) with an affiliate of Crow Holdings Realty Partners IV, L.P., which is accounted for under the equity method of accounting. During the quarter ended September 30, 2012, NNN Crow JV sold all of its assets and paid off its bank term loan.

Cash and Cash Equivalents - NNN considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents consist of money market accounts and are stated at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value.

Cash accounts maintained on behalf of NNN in demand deposits at commercial banks and money market funds may exceed federally insured levels; however, NNN has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Valuation of Receivables – NNN estimates the collectability of its accounts receivable related to rents, expense reimbursements and other revenues. NNN analyzes accounts receivable and historical bad debt levels, customer credit-worthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. In addition, tenants in bankruptcy are analyzed and estimates are made in connection with the expected recovery of pre-petition and post-petition claims.

Earnings Per Share – Earnings per share have been computed pursuant to the FASB guidance included in Earnings Per Share. Effective January 1, 2009, the guidance requires classification of the Company’s unvested restricted share units, which contain rights to receive nonforfeitable dividends, as participating securities requiring the two-class method of computing earnings per share. Under the two-class method, earnings per common share are computed by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common stockholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on the weighted average shares outstanding during the period.

The following table is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share using the two-class method (dollars in thousands):



	Quarter Ended March 31,

Weighted average number of shares outstanding used in diluted earnings per share	115,850,253			106,211,366

Fair Value Measurement – NNN’s estimates of fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities are based on the framework established in the fair value accounting guidance. The framework specifies a hierarchy of valuation inputs which was established to increase consistency, clarity and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures. The guidance describes a fair value hierarchy based upon three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, two of which are considered observable and one that is considered unobservable. The following describes the three levels:


•	Level 1 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.


•	Level 2 – Valuation is based upon inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.


•	Level 3 – Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Valuation techniques include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

Other Comprehensive Income – The following outlines the changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (dollars in thousands):



	Gain or Loss on Cash Flow Hedges ⁽¹⁾			Unrealized Gains and Losses on Commercial Mortgage Residual Interests ⁽²⁾		Unrealized Gains and Losses on Available-for-Sale Securities		Total
Beginning balance, December 31, 2012	$	(5,693	)	$	3,244	$	67	$	(2,382	)

¹⁾ Additional disclosure is included in Note 12 - Derivatives.

²⁾ Additional disclosure is included in Note 6 - Commercial Mortgage Residual Interests.

³⁾ Reclassifications out of other comprehensive income are recorded in Interest Expense on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. There is no income tax expense (benefit) resulting from this reclassification.

New Accounting Pronouncements – In December 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2011-11 amending its guidance on offsetting assets and liabilities in financial statements. The objective of this update will require disclosure to facilitate comparison between those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of GAAP and those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of IFRS. The amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. The adoption of the standard did not have a significant impact on NNN's financial position or results of operations.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-02. The objective of this update is to improve the reporting of reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income. The update requires reporting significant reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive income on the respective line items in net income if the amount being reclassified is required under GAAP to be reclassified in its entirety to net income or cross-reference other required disclosures that provide additional detail about amounts that are not. The amendments in this update are effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of the standard in the quarter ended March 31, 2013, did not have a significant impact on NNN's financial position or results of operations.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-04. The objective of this update is to provide guidance for the recognition, measurement, and disclosure of obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of this guidance is fixed at the reporting date. The amendments in this update are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2013. NNN is currently evaluating ASU 2013-04 to determine the potential impact, if any, its adoption will have on NNN's financial position and results of operations.

Use of Estimates – Management of NNN has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Significant estimates include provisions for impairment and allowances for certain assets, accruals, useful lives of assets and purchase price allocation. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassification – Certain items in the prior year’s consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2013 presentation.

Note 2 – Real Estate – Portfolio:

Leases – The following outlines key information for NNN’s leases:



	March 31, 2013
Lease classification:
Operating	1,637
Direct financing	13
Building portion – direct financing / land portion – operating	5
Weighted average remaining lease term	12 Years

The leases generally provide for limited increases in rent as a result of fixed increases, increases in the consumer price index, and/or increases in the tenant’s sales volume. Generally, the tenant is also required to pay all property taxes and assessments, substantially maintain the interior and exterior of the property and carry property and liability insurance coverage. Certain of NNN’s Properties are subject to leases under which NNN retains responsibility for specific costs and expenses of the property. Generally, the leases of the Properties provide the tenant with one or more multi-year renewal options subject to generally the same terms and conditions, including rent increases, consistent with the initial lease term.

Real Estate Portfolio – Accounted for Using the Operating Method – Real estate subject to operating leases consisted of the following as of (dollars in thousands):

⁽¹⁾ None of the gains from property sales for the period were reported in continuing operations.

Note 4 – Real Estate – Commitments:

In connection with the improvements of leased Properties, NNN has the following funding commitments (dollars in thousands):



	March 31, 2013
	# of Properties	Total Commitment⁽¹⁾		Amount Funded		Remaining Commitment
Real estate - portfolio	47	$	148,662	$	112,387	$	36,275

	49	$	150,324	$	113,334	$	36,990

⁽¹⁾ Includes land, construction costs and tenant improvements.

Note 5 – Impairments – Real Estate:

Management periodically assesses the Company's real estate for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset, including accrued rental income, may not be recoverable through operations. Events or circumstances that may occur include significant changes in real estate market conditions and the ability of NNN to re-lease or sell properties that are vacant or become vacant. Impairments are measured as the amount by which the current book value of the asset exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset.

As a result of the Company's review of long lived assets, including identifiable intangible assets, NNN recognized the following real estate impairments (dollars in thousands):



	Quarter Ended March 31,
	2013		2012

Continuing operations	$	1,812	$	35
Discontinued operations	1,039		—
	$	2,851	$	35

The valuation of impaired assets is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis, income capitalization, analysis of recent comparable sales transactions, actual sales negotiations and bona fide purchase offers received from third parties, which are level 3 inputs. NNN may consider a single valuation technique or multiple valuation techniques, as appropriate, when measuring the fair value of its real estate.

Note 6 – Commercial Mortgage Residual Interests:

NNN holds the residual interests (“Residuals”) from seven commercial mortgage securitizations. Each of the Residuals is recorded at fair value based upon an independent valuation. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as other comprehensive income in stockholders' equity and other than temporary losses as a result of a change in the timing, or amount of estimated cash flows are recorded as an other than temporary valuation impairment.

Due to the expected timing of future cash flows relating to the Residuals, the independent valuation adjusted certain of the valuation assumptions. The following table summarizes the key assumptions used in determining the value of the Residuals as of:



	March 31, 2013		December 31, 2012
Discount rate	25	%	25	%
Average life equivalent CPR ⁽¹⁾ speeds range	0.80% to 25.04% CPR		0.80% to 24.31% CPR
Foreclosures:
Frequency curve default model	0.08% - 4.76% range		0.09% - 4.49% range
Loss severity of loans in foreclosure	20	%	20	%
Yield:
LIBOR	Forward 3-month curve		Forward 3-month curve
Prime	Forward curve		Forward curve

⁽¹⁾ Conditional prepayment rate.

The following table summarizes the recognition of unrealized gains and/or losses recorded as other comprehensive income as well as other than temporary valuation impairments recorded in condensed consolidated statements of earnings (dollars in thousands):



	Quarter Ended March 31,
	2013		2012
Unrealized gains	$	869	$	—

There were no other than temporary valuation impairments recorded in the quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012 with respect to the Residuals.

Note 7 – Line of Credit Payable:

NNN's $500,000,000 revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) had a weighted average outstanding balance of $127,198,000 and a weighted average interest rate of 1.4% during the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The Credit Facility matures October 2016, unless the Company exercises its option to extend maturity to October 2017. The Credit Facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 117.5 basis points; however, such interest rate may change pursuant to a tiered interest rate structure based on NNN's debt rating. The Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature to increase the facility size up to $1,000,000,000, subject to lender approval. As of March 31, 2013, $59,400,000 was outstanding and $440,600,000 was available for future borrowings under the Credit Facility.

In March 2013, certain market conditions for the 2028 Notes were satisfied, making the 2028 Notes convertible during the calendar quarter beginning April 1, 2013.


⁽⁸⁾	In January 2013, NNN settled the remaining principal balance of $15,537.

Each series of convertible notes represents a senior, unsecured obligation of NNN and is subordinated to all secured indebtedness of the Company. Each note is redeemable at the option of NNN, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon through but not including the redemption date and (ii) the make whole amount, if any, as defined in the applicable supplemental indenture relating to the notes.

The carrying values of the Company’s convertible debt and equity components are summarized in the table below (dollars in thousands):



	March 31, 2013			December 31, 2012
Carrying value of equity component	$	(20,720	)	$	(22,193	)

Contractual interest expense	2,858		4,227
Amortization of debt costs	305		—
Total interest expense	$	4,285	$	5,271

The if-converted value of the 2028 Notes exceeded the principal amount by $95,739,000 as of March 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2012, the if-converted values which exceeded the principal amount were $5,125,000 and $51,764,000 for the 2026 Notes and the 2028 Notes, respectively.

As of December 31, 2012, $15,537,000 of the principal amount of 2026 Notes were outstanding. In January 2013, the Company paid approximately $20,565,000 in aggregate settlement value for the $15,537,000 of settled notes. The difference between the amount paid and the principal amount of the settled notes of $5,028,000 was recognized as a decrease to additional paid-in capital.

Note 10 – Income Taxes:

NNN has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”), commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1984. To qualify as a REIT, NNN must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its stockholders. NNN intends to adhere to these requirements and maintain its REIT status. As a REIT, NNN generally will not be subject to corporate level federal income tax on taxable income that it distributes currently to its stockholders. NNN may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income, if any. The provision for federal income taxes in NNN's consolidated financial statements relates to its TRS operations and any potential taxable built-in gain. NNN did not have significant tax provisions or deferred income tax items during the periods reported hereunder.

In June 2006, the FASB issued guidance, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company's financial statements in accordance with FASB guidance included in Income Taxes. The interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

NNN, in accordance with FASB guidance included in Income Taxes, has analyzed its various federal and state tax filing positions. NNN believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions are well documented and supported. Additionally, NNN believes that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to the FASB guidance.

NNN has had no increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits for current or prior years since adopting the guidance. Further, no interest or penalties have been included since no reserves were recorded and no significant increases or decreases are expected to occur within the next 12 months. When applicable, such interest and penalties will be recorded as non-operating expenses. The periods that remain open under federal statute are 2009 through 2013. NNN also files in many states with varying open years under statute.

Note 11 – Earnings from Discontinued Operations:

NNN classified the revenues and expenses related to properties which were sold or were held for sale as of March 31, 2013, as discontinued operations. The following is a summary of the earnings (loss) from discontinued operations (dollars in thousands):



	Quarter Ended March 31,

Loss (earnings) attributable to noncontrolling interests	(56		)	(6		)
Earnings (loss) from discontinued operations attributable to NNN	$	(220	)	$	1,676

Note 12 – Derivatives:

In accordance with the guidance on derivatives and hedging, NNN records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges.

NNN’s objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements or other identified risks. To accomplish this objective, NNN primarily uses treasury locks, forward swaps and interest rate swaps as part of its cash flow hedging strategy. Treasury locks and forward starting swaps are used to hedge forecasted debt issuances. Treasury locks designated as cash flow hedges lock in the yield/price of a treasury security. Forward swaps also lock the associated swap spread. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges hedging the variable cash flows associated with floating rate debt involve the receipt of variable rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying principal amount.

For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in other comprehensive income (outside of earnings) and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings, and the ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings.

NNN discontinues hedge accounting prospectively when it is determined that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of the hedged item, the derivative expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, the derivative is re-

designated as a hedging instrument or management determines that designation of the derivative as a hedging instrument is no longer appropriate.

When hedge accounting is discontinued, NNN continues to carry the derivative at its fair value on the balance sheet, and recognizes any changes in its fair value in earnings or may choose to cash settle the derivative at that time.

In March 2013, the Company entered into four forward starting swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $240,000,000 to hedge the risk of changes in the interest-related cash outflows associated with the potential issuance of long-term debt, such transaction occurred in April 2013 (see Note 15). The outstanding forward starting swaps were designated as cash flow hedges, and as of March 31, 2013, have a fair value of $1,144,000 included in other liabilities and other comprehensive income on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. No hedge ineffectiveness was recognized during the quarter ended March 31, 2013. These derivative financial instruments were still outstanding as of March 31, 2013.

As of March 31, 2013, $5,633,000 remained in other comprehensive income related to the effective portion of NNN’s previous interest rate hedges. During the quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, NNN reclassified out of comprehensive income $60,000 as an increase to interest expense and $56,000 as a reduction to interest expense, respectively. Over the next 12 months, NNN estimates that an additional $256,000 will be reclassified as an increase in interest expense. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on NNN’s long-term debt.

NNN does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes or currently have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges.

Note 13 – Fair Value Measurements:

NNN currently values its Residuals based upon an independent valuation which provides a discounted cash flow analysis based upon prepayment speeds, expected loan losses and yield curves. These valuation inputs are generally considered unobservable; therefore, the Residuals are considered Level 3 financial assets. The table below presents a reconciliation of the Residuals (dollars in thousands):



	Quarter Ended
	March 31, 2013
Balance at beginning of period	$	13,096
Total gains (losses) – realized/unrealized:
Included in earnings	—
Included in other comprehensive income	869
Interest income on Residuals	606
Cash received from Residuals	(852		)
Purchases, sales, issuances and settlements, net	—
Transfers in and/or out of Level 3	—
Balance at end of period	$	13,719
Changes in gains (losses) included in earnings attributable to a change in unrealized gains (losses) relating to assets still held at the end of period	$	—

Note 14 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

NNN believes the carrying value of its Credit Facility approximates fair value based upon its nature, terms and variable interest rate. NNN believes that the carrying value of its cash and cash equivalents, mortgages, notes and other receivables, mortgages payable and other liabilities at March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, approximate fair value based upon current market prices of similar issues. At March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair value of NNN’s notes payable and convertible notes payable, collectively, was $1,614,028,000 and $1,585,756,000, respectively, based upon the quoted market price, which is a level one valuation since NNN's debt is publicly traded.

Note 15 – Subsequent Events:

NNN reviewed its subsequent events and transactions that have occurred after March 31, 2013, the date of the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

In April 2013, NNN closed on its public offering of $350,000,000 principal amount of 3.300% senior unsecured notes due April 15, 2023 (“2023 Notes”). The public offering price was 99.259% of the principal amount for a yield of 3.388%. The 2023 Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are registered under the Company's existing shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. NNN used a portion of the net proceeds from this offering to repay NNN's outstanding indebtedness under its Credit Facility and NNN intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds to fund future property acquisitions and for general corporate purposes. Additionally, in connection with this note issuance, NNN terminated the forward starting swaps with a aggregate notional amount of $240,000,000 that were hedging the risk of changes in forecasted interest payments on a forecasted issuance of long-term debt. When terminated, the fair value of the forward starting swaps, designated as cash flow hedges, was a liability of $3,156,000, of which $3,141,000 was deferred in other comprehensive income. The amount reported in accumulated other comprehensive income will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the 2023 Notes.

In March 2013, the market price condition on NNN's 5.125% convertible senior notes due 2028 ("2028 Notes") was satisfied, and the 2028 Notes became convertible during the quarter beginning April 1, 2013. As of May 1, 2013, the 2028 Notes are convertible at a rate of 39.536 shares of NNN's common stock per $1,000 principal amount of 2028 Notes. Through May 2, 2013, approximately $91,000 principal amount of 2028 Notes had been surrendered for conversion, and approximately $222,944,000 principal amount of 2028 Notes remained outstanding. There were no other reportable subsequent events or transactions.

Overview

NNN, a Maryland corporation, is a fully integrated real estate investment trust (“REIT”) formed in 1984. NNN's assets include: real estate, mortgages and notes receivable, and commercial mortgage residual interests. NNN acquires, owns, invests in and develops properties that are leased primarily to retail tenants under long-term net leases and primarily held for investment (“Properties” or “Property Portfolio”).

As of March 31, 2013, NNN owned 1,636 Properties, with an aggregate gross leasable area of approximately 19,267,000 square feet, located in 47 states. Approximately 98 percent of the Properties in the Property Portfolio were leased as of March 31, 2013.

NNN’s management team focuses on certain key indicators to evaluate the financial condition and operating performance of NNN. The key indicators for NNN include items such as: the composition of the Property Portfolio (such as tenant, geographic and line of trade diversification), the occupancy rate of the Property Portfolio, certain financial performance ratios and profitability measures, and industry trends and performance compared to that of NNN.

NNN continues to maintain its diversification by tenant, geography and tenant’s line of trade. NNN’s highest lines of trade concentrations are the convenience store and restaurant (including full and limited service) sectors. These sectors represent a large part of the freestanding retail property marketplace and NNN’s management believes these sectors present attractive investment opportunities. NNN’s Property Portfolio is geographically concentrated in the south and southeast United States, which are regions of historically above-average population growth. Given these concentrations, any financial hardship within these sectors or geographic locations, respectively, could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition and operating performance of NNN.

Analysis of Revenue From Continuing Operations

General. During the quarter ended March 31, 2013, rental income increased primarily due to an increase in rental income from property acquisitions (See “Results of Operations - Property Analysis - Property Acquisitions”). NNN anticipates increases in rental income will continue to come from additional property acquisitions and increases in rents pursuant to lease terms.

The following summarizes NNN’s revenues from continuing operations (dollars in thousands):



	Quarter Ended March 31,
	2013		2012		2013		2012		Percent Increase (Decrease)

Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 versus Quarter Ended March 31, 2012

Rental Income. Rental Income increased in amount and as a percent of the total revenues from continuing operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, as compared to the same period in 2012. The increase for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, is primarily due to the acquisition of 17 properties with aggregate gross leasable area of approximately 162,000 square feet during the quarter ended March 31, 2013 and 232 properties with aggregate gross leasable area of approximately 2,955,000 square feet during 2012.

Analysis of Expenses from Continuing Operations

General. Operating expenses from continuing operations increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, primarily due to an increase in depreciation expense from certain properties acquired in 2012. The following table summarizes NNN’s expenses from continuing operations for the quarters ended March 31 (dollars in thousands):



							Percent Increase (Decrease)	Percentage of Total				Percentage of Revenues from Continuing Operations
	2013			2012			Percent Increase (Decrease)	2013		2012		2013		2012

Quarter Ended March 31, 2013 versus Quarter Ended March 31, 2012

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, as compared to the same period in 2012, but decreased as a percentage of total operating expenses and as a percentage of revenues from continuing operations. The increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily attributable to an increase in incentive compensation.

Real Estate. Real estate expenses decreased in amount and decreased both as a percent of total operating expenses and as a percentage of revenues from continuing operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, as compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2012, primarily due to the leasing of certain vacant properties.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased as a percentage of total operating expenses and as a percentage of revenues from continuing operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 as compared to the same period in 2012. The increase is primarily due to depreciation expense from the 232 properties with aggregate gross leasable area of approximately 2,955,000 square feet acquired in 2012.

Impairment Losses and Other Charges. NNN reviews long-lived assets for impairment whenever certain events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable. Events or circumstances that may occur include changes in real estate market conditions, the ability of NNN to re-lease properties that are currently vacant or become vacant, and the ability to sell properties at an attractive price. Generally, NNN evaluates a possible impairment by comparing the estimated future cash flows to the current net book value. Impairments are measured as the amount by which the current book value of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset. During the quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, NNN recorded $1,812,000 and $35,000, respectively, of real estate impairments.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, as compared to the same period in 2012.

The following represents the primary changes in debt that have impacted interest expense:


(i)	the issuance in August 2012 of $325,000,000 principal amount of notes payable with a maturity of October 2022, and stated interest rate of 3.800%;


(ii)	the repayment in June 2012 of $50,000,000 prinipal amount of notes payable with a stated interest rate of 7.750%;


(iii)	the repayment in July 2012 of a mortgage, with a balance of $18,488,000 at December 31, 2011 and an interest rate of 6.90%;


(iv)	the settlement of $138,700,000 principal amount of 3.95% convertible notes payable, of which $123,163,000 was settled in the fourth quarter 2012 and the remaining $15,537,000 was settled in the first quarter 2013; and


(v)	a $76,431,000 increase in the weighted average debt outstanding on the credit facility partially offset by a slightly lower weighted average interest rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, as compared to the same period in 2012.

Discontinued Operations

Earnings. NNN classified as discontinued operations the revenues and expenses related to its revenue generating Properties that were sold and any revenue generating Properties that were held for sale at March 31, 2013.

The following table summarizes the earnings from discontinued operations for the quarters ended March 31 (dollars in thousands):



	2013						2012
	# of Sold Properties	Gain		Earnings			# of Sold Properties	Gain		Earnings
Properties	2	$	505	$	(164	)	3	$	314	$	1,682
Noncontrolling interests	—	—		(56		)	—	—		(6		)
	2	$	505	$	(220	)	3	$	314	$	1,676

NNN periodically sells Properties and may reinvest the sales proceeds to purchase additional properties. NNN evaluates its ability to pay dividends to stockholders by considering the combined effect of income from continuing and discontinued operations.

Liquidity

General. NNN’s demand for funds has been and will continue to be primarily for (i) payment of operating expenses and cash dividends; (ii) property acquisitions and development; (iii) origination of mortgages and notes receivable; (iv) capital expenditures; (v) payment of principal and interest on its outstanding indebtedness; and (vi) other investments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The table below summarizes NNN’s cash flows (in thousands):



	Quarter Ended March 31,
	2013			2012
Cash and cash equivalents:
Provided by operating activities	$	68,823		$	50,600
Used in investing activities	(46,552		)	(190,678		)
Provided by (used in) financing activities	(20,905		)	141,029
Increase	1,366			951
Net cash at beginning of period	2,076			2,082
Net cash at end of period	$	3,442		$	3,033

Cash provided by operating activities represents cash received primarily from rental income from tenants, proceeds from the disposition of certain properties and interest income less cash used for general and administrative expenses, interest expense and acquisition of certain properties. NNN’s cash flow from operating activities, net of cash used in and provided by the acquisition and disposition of certain properties, has been sufficient to pay the distributions for each period presented. NNN generally uses proceeds from its credit facility or from offerings of equity or debt securities in the capital markets to fund the acquisition of its properties. The change in cash provided by operations for the quarters ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, is primarily the result of changes in revenues and expenses as discussed in “Results of Operations.” Cash generated from operations is expected to fluctuate in the future.

Changes in cash for investing activities are primarily attributable to the acquisitions and dispositions of Properties.

NNN’s financing activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2013, included the following significant transactions:


•	$114,800,000 in net payments on NNN's Credit Facility,


•	$13,822,000 in net proceeds from the issuance of 424,995 shares of common stock in connection with the Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan ("DRIP"),


•	$150,327,000 in net proceeds from the issuance of approximately 4,616,542 shares of common stock in connection with the at-the-market ("ATM") equity program,


•	$44,321,000 in dividends paid to common stockholders,


•	$4,762,000 in dividends paid to holders of the depositary shares of NNN’s Series D Preferred Stock, and


•	$20,565,000 paid in the first quarter 2013 to settle the remaining $15,537,000 principal amount of the 3.95% convertible notes payable.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments. As of March 31, 2013, NNN has agreed to fund construction commitments in connection with the improvements of leased Properties as outlined in the table below (dollars in thousands):



	March 31, 2013
	# of Properties	Total Commitment⁽¹⁾		Amount Funded		Remaining Commitment
Real estate portfolio	47	$	148,662	$	112,387	$	36,275
Real estate held for sale	2	1,662		947		715
	49	$	150,324	$	113,334	$	36,990

⁽¹⁾ Includes land, construction costs and tenant improvements.

As of March 31, 2013, NNN did not have any material contractual cash obligations, such as purchase obligations, financing lease obligations or other long-term liabilities other than those reflected in the table above and previously disclosed under Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in NNN's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012. In addition to items reflected in the table, NNN has issued preferred stock with cumulative preferential cash distributions, as described below under “Dividends.”

Management anticipates satisfying these obligations with a combination of NNN’s cash provided from operations, current capital resources on hand, its credit facility, debt or equity financings and asset dispositions.

Generally, the Properties are leased under long-term net leases, which generally require the tenant to pay all property taxes and assessments, substantially maintain the interior and exterior of the property and carry property and liability insurance coverage. Therefore, management anticipates that capital demands to meet obligations with respect to these Properties will be modest for the foreseeable future and can be met with funds from operations and working capital. Certain of NNN’s Properties are subject to leases under which NNN retains responsibility for specific costs and expenses associated with the Property. Management anticipates the costs associated with NNN’s vacant Properties or those Properties that become vacant will also be met with funds from operations and working capital. NNN may be required to borrow under its credit facility or use other sources of capital in the event of unforeseen significant capital expenditures.

The lost revenues and increased property expenses resulting from vacant properties or uncollectibility of lease revenues could have a material adverse effect on the liquidity and results of operations if NNN is unable to re-lease the Properties at comparable rental rates and in a timely manner. As of March 31, 2013, NNN owned 36 vacant, un-leased Properties which accounted for approximately two percent of total Properties held in NNN’s Property Portfolio.

NNN generally monitors the financial performance of its significant tenants on an ongoing basis.

Dividends. NNN has made an election to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Code, as amended, and related regulations and intends to continue to operate so as to remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. NNN generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that it distributes to its stockholders, provided that it distributes 100 percent of its REIT taxable income and meets certain other requirements for qualifying as a REIT. If NNN fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for four years following the year during which qualification is lost. Such an event could materially adversely affect NNN’s income and ability to pay dividends. NNN believes it has been structured as, and its past and present operations qualify NNN as, a REIT.

One of NNN’s primary objectives, consistent with its policy of retaining sufficient cash for reserves and working capital purposes and maintaining its status as a REIT, is to distribute a substantial portion of its funds available from operations to its stockholders in the form of dividends.

The following table outlines the dividends declared and paid for each issuance of NNN's stock (in thousands, except per share data):



		Quarter Ended March 31,
		2013		2012
Series C preferred stock ⁽¹⁾:
	Dividends	$	—	$	1,979
	Per share	—		0.5378

Series D preferred stock ⁽²⁾:
	Dividends	4,762		—
	Per share	0.4141		—

Common stock:
	Dividends	44,321		40,432
	Per share	0.395		0.385

¹⁾ The Series C preferred stock was redeemed in March 2012. The dividends paid during the quarter ended

March 31, 2012 include accumulated and unpaid dividends through the redemption date.

²⁾ The Series D preferred stock has no maturity date and will remain outstanding unless redeemed.

In April 2013, NNN declared a dividend of $0.395 per share which is payable in May 2013 to its common stockholders of record as of April 30, 2013.

Capital Resources

Generally, cash needs for property acquisitions, mortgages and notes receivable investments, debt payments, capital expenditures, development and other investments have been funded by equity and debt offerings, bank borrowings, the sale of properties and, to a lesser extent, by internally generated funds. Cash needs for operating expenses and dividends have generally been funded by internally generated funds. If available, future sources of capital include proceeds from the public or private offering of NNN’s debt or equity securities, secured or unsecured borrowings from banks or other lenders, proceeds from the sale of properties, as well as undistributed funds from operations.

Debt

The following is a summary of NNN’s total outstanding debt as of (dollars in thousands):



	March 31, 2013		Percentage of Total	December 31, 2012		Percentage of Total
Line of credit payable	$	59,400	4.1%	$	174,200	11.0%
Mortgages payable	10,328		0.7%	10,602		0.7%
Notes payable – convertible	222,084		15.2%	236,500		14.9%
Notes payable	1,165,897		80.0%	1,165,662		73.4%
Total outstanding debt	$	1,457,709	100.0%	$	1,586,964	100.0%

Indebtedness. NNN expects to use indebtedness primarily for property acquisitions and development of single-tenant retail properties, either directly or through investment interests, and mortgage and note receivables.

Line of Credit Payable. NNN's $500,000,000 revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) had a weighted average outstanding balance of $127,198,000 and a weighted average interest rate of 1.4% during the quarter ended March 31, 2013. The Credit Facility matures October 2016, unless the Company exercises its to extend maturity to October 2017. The Credit Facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 117.5 basis points; however, such interest rate may change pursuant to a tiered interest rate structure based on NNN's debt rating. The Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature to increase the facility size up to $1,000,000,000, subject to lender approval. As of March 31, 2013, $59,400,000 was outstanding and $440,600,000 was available for future borrowings under the Credit Facility.

The if-converted value of the 2028 Notes exceeded the principal amount by $95,739,000 as of March 31, 2013. As of December 31, 2012, the if-converted values, which exceeded the principal amount, were $5,125,000 and $51,764,000 for the 2026 Notes and the 2028 Notes, respectively.

As of December 31, 2012, $15,537,000 principal amount of 2026 Notes were outstanding. In January 2013, the Company paid approximately $20,565,000 in aggregate settlement value for the $15,537,000 of settled notes. The difference between the amount paid and the principal amount of the settled notes of $5,028,000 was recognized as a decrease to additional paid-in capital.

Notes Payable. In April 2013, NNN closed on its public offering of $350,000,000 principal amount of 3.300% senior unsecured notes due April 15, 2023. The public offering price was 99.259% of the principal amount for a yield of 3.388%. The notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are registered under the Company's existing shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. NNN used a portion of the net proceeds from this offering to repay NNN's outstanding indebtedness under its Credit Facility. In addition, NNN intends to use the remainder of the net proceeds to fund future property acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.

Debt and Equity Securities

NNN has used, and expects to use in the future, issuances of debt and equity securities primarily to pay down its outstanding indebtedness and to finance investment acquisitions.

Securities Offering. In February 2012, NNN filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) which was automatically effective and permits the issuance by NNN of an indeterminate amount of debt and equity securities.

A description of NNN’s outstanding series of publicly held notes is found under “Debt – Notes Payable – Convertible” and "Debt – Notes Payable" above.

7.375% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. In October 2006, NNN issued 3,680,000 depositary shares, each representing 1/100^th of a share of Series C Preferred Stock.

In March 2012, NNN redeemed all 3,680,000 outstanding depositary shares representing interests in its Series C Preferred Stock. The Series C Preferred Stock was redeemed at $25.00 per depositary share, plus accumulated and unpaid distributions through the redemption date, for an aggregate redemption price of $25.0768229 per depositary share. The excess carrying amount of preferred stock redeemed over the cash paid to redeem the preferred stock was $3,098,000 of Series C Preferred Stock issuance costs.

6.625% Series D Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock. In February 2012, NNN consummated an underwritten public offering of 11,500,000 depositary shares (including 1,500,000 shares in connection with the underwriters over-allotment), each representing a 1/100^th interest in a share of Series D Preferred Stock, and received gross proceeds of $287,500,000. In connection with this offering, the Company incurred stock issuance costs of approximately $9,855,000, consisting primarily of underwriting commissions and fees, legal and accounting fees and printing expenses. NNN used these net offering proceeds to redeem the 7.375% Series C Preferred Stock for an aggregate redemption price of $92,000,000, excluding accumulated dividends of $283,000. NNN used the remainder of the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including repaying outstanding indebtedness under its Credit Facility.

Holders of the Series D depositary shares are entitled to receive, when and as authorized by the Board of Directors, cumulative preferential cash dividends at the rate of 6.625% of the $25.00 liquidation preference per depositary share per annum (equivalent to a fixed annual amount of $1.65625 per depositary share). The Series D Preferred Stock underlying the depositary shares ranks senior to NNN’s common stock with respect to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of NNN. The Series D Preferred Stock has no maturity date and will remain outstanding unless redeemed. NNN may

redeem the Series D Preferred Stock underlying the depositary shares on or after September 23, 2017, for cash, at a redemption price of $2,500.00 per share (or $25.00 per depositary share), plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends. In addition, upon a change of control, as defined in the articles supplementary fixing the rights and preferences of the Series D Preferred Stock, NNN may redeem the Series D Preferred Stock underlying the depositary shares at a redemption price of $2,500.00 per share (or $25.00 per depositary share), plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends, and in limited circumstances the holders of depositary shares may convert some or all of their Series D Preferred Stock into shares of NNN's common stock at conversion rates provided in the related articles supplementary. As of April 29, 2013, the Series D Preferred Stock was not redeemable or convertible.

Common Stock Issuances. In May 2012, NNN established an at-the-market equity program ("2012 ATM") which allowed NNN to sell up to an aggregate of 9,000,000 shares of common stock from time to time through May 10, 2015. The following outlines the common stock issuances pursuant to the 2012 ATM (dollars in thousands, except per share data):

⁽¹⁾ Stock issuance costs consist primarily of underwriters' fees and commissions, and legal and accounting fees.

In February 2012, NNN filed a shelf registration statement which was automatically effective with the Commission for its DRIP, which permits the issuance by NNN of up to 16,000,000 shares of common stock. NNN’s DRIP provides an economical and convenient way for current stockholders and other interested new investors to invest in NNN’s common stock.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

NNN is exposed to interest rate risk primarily as a result of its variable rate Credit Facility and its fixed rate debt which are used to finance NNN’s development and acquisition activities, as well as for general corporate purposes. NNN’s interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower overall borrowing costs. To achieve its objectives, NNN borrows at both fixed and variable rates on its long-term debt. As of March 31, 2013, NNN had four forward starting swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $240,000,000 to hedge the risk of changes in the interest-related cash outflows associated with the potential issuance of long-term debt.

The information in the table below summarizes NNN’s market risks associated with its debt obligations outstanding as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The table presents principal payments and related interest rates by year for debt obligations outstanding as of March 31, 2013. The table incorporates only those debt obligations that existed as of March 31, 2013, and it does not consider those debt obligations or positions which could arise after this date. Moreover, because firm commitments are not presented in the table below, the information presented therein has limited predictive value. As a result, NNN’s ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during the quarter, NNN’s hedging strategies at that time and interest rates. If interest rates on NNN’s variable rate debt increased by one percent, NNN’s interest expense would have increased by less than two percent for the quarter ended March 31, 2013.

⁽²⁾ Includes NNN’s notes payable and convertible notes payable, each net of unamortized discounts. NNN uses Bloomberg to determine the fair value.

NNN is also exposed to market risks related to the Residuals. Factors that may impact the market value of the Residuals include delinquencies, loan losses, prepayment speeds and interest rates. The Residuals, which are reported at market value based upon an independent valuation, had a carrying value of $13,719,000 and $13,096,000 as of March 31, 2013 and December 31, 2012, respectively. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity. Losses considered other than temporary are reported as valuation impairments in earnings from operations if and when there has been a change in the timing or amount of estimated cash flows that leads to a loss in value.


Item 4.	Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of NNN's management, including NNN's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness as of March 31, 2013 of the design and operation of NNN's disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the design and operation of these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. There has been no change in NNN's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, NNN's internal control over financial reporting.
