REALTY INCOME CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
------------------------------------------

June 30, 2001
(Unaudited)

1. Management Statement

The consolidated financial statements of Realty Income Corporation ("Realty
Income", the "Company", "we" or "our") were prepared from our books and records
without audit and include all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
accruals) necessary to present a fair statement of results for the interim
periods presented. Certain of the 2000 balances have been reclassified to
conform to the 2001 presentation. Readers of this quarterly report should refer
to our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2000, which
are included in our 2000 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as certain disclosures
which would substantially duplicate those contained in such audited financial
statements have been omitted from this report.

2. Accounting Policies and Procedures

Maintenance and Repairs. - Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed
as incurred. Replacements and betterments are capitalized.

Principles of Consolidation. - The accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of Realty Income, including Crest Net Lease,
Inc. (Crest Net) and other entities for which we make operational and financial
decisions (control), after elimination of all material intercompany balances and
transaction.

Leases. - All leases are accounted for as operating leases. Under this method,
lease payments are recognized as revenue on a straight-line basis over the lease
term regardless of when the payments are due. We recognize contingent rent
revenue from tenants only after the tenants exceed their sales breakpoint.
Rental increases based upon changes in the consumer price indexes are recognized
only after the changes in the indexes have occurred, and then applied according
to the lease agreements.

During December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 101 "Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements." ("SAB
101"). SAB 101 reflects the basic principles of revenue recognition in existing
generally accepted accounting principles. The Company adopted SAB 101 during the
first quarter of 2000, which had no effect on the Company's consolidated
financial statements.

Provision for Impairment Losses. - We review 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) plus estimated disposition proceeds
(undiscounted) are less than the current book value. Impairment losses are
measured as the amount which the current book value of the asset exceeds the
fair value of the asset. If a property is held for sale, it is carried at the
lower of cost or estimated fair value, less costs to sell. A provision for
impairment losses of $200,000 was recorded in the three months ended June 30,
2001 and $530,000 was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2001. No
provision for impairment loss was recorded in 2000.

3. Investment in Subsidiary

In January 2000, we acquired 95% of the common stock of Crest Net Lease, all of
which is non-voting and certain members of our management and Crest Net Lease
management acquired 5% of the common stock, all of which is voting stock. In May
2001, we acquired the 5% of common stock of Crest Net Lease owned by certain
members of our management and management of Crest Net Lease for $507,000. The
acquisition of the 5% of common stock was accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting. After this transaction, Realty Income owns 100% of the
stock of Crest Net Lease. Crest Net Lease was created to buy, own and sell
properties, primarily to buyers using tax-deferred exchanges, under Section 1031
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

4. Property Acquisitions

A. During the first six months of 2001, we invested $15.3 million in seven new
retail properties and properties under development with an initial weighted

100% leased, with an average initial lease term of 21.7 years.

During the first six months of 2000, we invested $16.8 million in three new
retail properties and properties under development with an initial aggregate
contractual lease rate of 10.5% and an average initial lease term of 13.2 years.

B. During the first six months of 2001, Crest Net Lease invested $4.5 million in

6. Gain on Sales of Real Estate Acquired for Resale

for $1.5 million. We recognized a gain of $161,000 on the sale of this property.

7. Gain on Sales of Investment Properties

million and recognized a gain of $6.1 million. During the six months ended June
30, 2000, we sold six properties for $3.5 million and recognized a gain of $1.6
million.

8. Net Income per Common Share

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

The following is a reconciliation of the denominator of the basic net income per
common share computation to the denominator of the diluted net income per common
share computation, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000:

<TABLE>

anti-dilutive.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, 447,552 stock options that
were anti-dilutive have been excluded from the incremental shares from the
assumed exercise of stock options.

$13.6 million, respectively.

During the first six months of 2001 and 2000, interest of $187,000 and $724,000,
respectively, was capitalized with respect to properties under development.

The following non-cash operating activity is included in the accompanying

13. Segment Information

We evaluate performance and make resource allocation decisions on a property by
property basis. For financial reporting purposes, we have grouped our tenants
into 12 reportable segments based upon the business the tenants are in, except
for properties owned by Crest Net Lease that are grouped in a separate segment.
The Crest Net Lease segment is included in "other non-reportable segments". All
of the properties have been acquired separately and are incorporated into one of
the applicable segments. Revenue is the only component of segment profit and
loss we measure.

The following tables set forth certain information regarding the properties
owned by us, classified according to the business of the respective tenants as

THE COMPANY

Realty Income Corporation, "The Monthly Dividend Company", a Maryland
corporation ("Realty Income", the "Company", "our" or "we") was organized to
operate as an equity real estate investment trust ("REIT"). Our primary business
objective is to generate dependable monthly distributions from a consistent and
predictable level of funds from operations ("FFO") per share. Additionally, we
seek to increase distributions to common stockholders and FFO per share through
both active portfolio management and the acquisition of additional properties.

We are 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 June 30, 2001, we owned a
diversified portfolio:

o Of 1,062 retail properties located in 46 states;
o With over 8.9 million square feet of leasable space;
o Leased to 72 different retail chains; and
o Doing business in 23 separate retail industries.

Of the 1,062 properties in the portfolio, 1,057 are single-tenant retail
properties with the remainder being multi-tenant properties. In addition, as of
June 30, 2001, our subsidiary, Crest Net Lease, owned six retail properties
located in five states that will contain approximately 112,300 square feet of
leasable space. These six properties, which are held for sale, are 100% leased.

Our portfolio management focus includes:

o Contractual rent increases on existing leases;
o Rental increases at the termination of existing leases when market conditions
permit; and
o The active management of our property portfolio, including selective sales of
properties.

Our acquisition of additional properties adheres to a focused strategy of
acquiring primarily:

o Freestanding, single-tenant, retail properties;
o Properties leased to regional and national retail chains; and
o Properties under long-term, net lease agreements.

We typically acquire, then lease back, retail store locations from chain store
operators, providing capital to the operators for continued expansion and other
corporate purposes. Our acquisitions and investment activities are concentrated
in well-defined target markets and focus generally on middle-market retailers
providing goods and services that satisfy basic consumer needs.

Our net-lease agreements generally:

o Are for initial terms of 10 to 20 years;
o Require the tenant to pay a minimum monthly rent and property operating
expenses (taxes, insurance and maintenance); and
o Provide for future rent increases (typically subject to ceilings) based on
increases in the consumer price index, fixed increases or additional rent
calculated as a percentage of the tenant's gross sales above a specified
level.

12
We believe that the long-term ownership of an actively managed, diversified
portfolio of retail properties under long-term, net-lease agreements produces
consistent, predictable income. We believe that long-term leases, coupled with
the tenant's responsibility for property expenses, generally produce a more
predictable income stream than many other types of real estate portfolios, while
continuing to offer the potential for growth in rental income.

From 1970 and through December 31, 2000, we have acquired and leased back to
regional and national retail chains 1,067 properties (including 51 properties
that have been sold) and have collected approximately 98% of the original
contractual rent obligations on those properties. We principally provide
sale-leaseback financing primarily to less than investment grade retail chains.
We believe that within this market we can achieve an attractive risk-adjusted
return on the financing that we provide to retailers.


RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Issuance of Common Stock. In May 2001, we issued 2,950,000 shares of common
stock at a price of $27.80 per share. The net proceeds of $77.6 million were
used to repay borrowings under our $200 million acquisition credit facility and
for other general corporate purposes.

Property Dispositions. During the first six months of 2001, we sold 13
properties for $19.7 million and recognized a gain on sales of $6.1 million. The
13 properties consisted of seven restaurants, three home improvement stores, one
home furnishing store, one automotive parts store and one child day care
property. The proceeds from the sale of these properties were used to repay
outstanding indebtedness on our $200 million credit facility and invested in new
properties and properties under development. The objective of our disposition
program is to sell properties when we believe the reinvestment of the net sales
proceeds can generate higher returns, enhance the credit quality of our real
estate portfolio and/or increase the average lease term.

Acquisition of Properties During the First Six Months of 2001. During the first
six months of 2001, we invested $15.3 million in seven new properties and
properties under development with an initial weighted average contractual
capitalization rate of 11.6%. The new properties are 100% leased with an initial
average lease length of 21.7 years and will contain approximately 115,000
leasable square feet.

During the first six months of 2001, we capitalized $226,000 for re-leasing
costs and $245,000 for building improvements on existing properties in our
portfolio.

Credit Facility Extension. In April 2001, the expiration date on $180 million of
our $200 million acquisition credit facility was extended one year to December
2003. The remaining $20 million is scheduled to expire in December 2002.

13
Increase in Monthly Distributions to Common Shareholders. Monthly distributions
per share were increased $0.00125 in January 2001 to $0.185, in April 2001 to
$0.18625 and in July 2001 to $0.1875. The increase in July was our 15th
consecutive quarterly increase. We continue our 32-year policy of paying
distributions monthly. During the first six months of 2001, we paid three
distributions of $0.185 per share and three distributions of $0.18625, totaling
$1.11375 per share. In June and July 2001, we declared distributions of $0.1875
per share, which were paid on July 16, 2001 and payable on August 15, 2001,
respectively. The monthly distribution of $0.1875 per share represents a current
annualized distribution of $2.25 per share, and an annualized distribution yield
of approximately 7.7% based on the last reported sale price of the Company's
Common Stock on the NYSE of $29.38 on August 10, 2001. Although we expect to
continue our policy of paying monthly distributions, we cannot guarantee that
the current level of distributions will be maintained by the Company, that we
will continue our pattern of increasing distributions per share, or what the
actual distribution yield will be for any future period.

Crest Net Lease. During the first six months of 2001, Crest Net Lease sold five
properties from its inventory for $15.5 million and we recorded a gain on sales
of $2.1 million. Crest Net Lease also invested $4.5 million in four new
properties and properties under development. At the end of the second quarter,
Crest Net Lease carried an inventory of $13.8 million, which is included in real
estate held for sale. The contribution, if any, to our FFO by Crest Net Lease
will depend on the timing and the number of property sales achieved, if any, in
any given quarter. During the first six months of 2001, Crest Net Lease
generated $1.3 million in funds from operations for us.

In order to comply with the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") in force at the
inception of Crest Net Lease, 5% of the common stock of Crest Net Lease, which
represented 100% of the voting stock, was not owned by the Company. Effective
for 2001, the Code was modified to allow a REIT to own 100% of the voting stock
of a corporation that elects and qualifies with the REIT to be treated as a
taxable REIT subsidiary. As a result of the change in the Code, in May 2001 we
acquired the 5% of Crest Net Lease's common stock owned by certain members of
our management and the management of Crest Net Lease for $507,000. The
acquisition of the 5% of common stock was accounted for under the purchase
method of accounting. The disinterested members of our board of directors
approved this transaction. Crest Net Lease originally issued this stock for
$450,000. Realty Income also received rights to the undistributed earnings on
the stock, which totaled $81,200. After this transaction, Realty Income owns
100% of Crest Net Lease's stock.

Share Repurchase Activity. We regularly review our investment options to
determine the best use of our capital. From time to time during the first six
months of 2001, we concluded our share price justified repurchasing shares since
this provided the highest return on our investment capital. During the six
months ended June 30, 2001, we invested $169,000 to repurchase 6,800 shares of
our common stock at an average price of $24.82 per share. From January 2000
through June 2001, we have purchased $6.7 million of our securities.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash Reserves. Realty Income is organized for the purpose of operating as an
equity REIT that 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. We intend to retain an
appropriate amount of cash as working capital. At June 30, 2001, we had cash and
cash equivalents totaling $1.2 million.

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

Capital Funding. We have a $200 million, three-year revolving, unsecured
acquisition credit facility, of which $180 million expires in December 2003 and
$20 million expires in December 2002. We also have a $25 million, three-year
revolving, unsecured credit facility that expires in February 2003. The credit
facilities currently bear interest at 1.225% over the London Interbank Offered
Rate, or LIBOR, and offer us other interest rate options. As of August 10, 2001,
borrowing capacity of $162.7 million was available on our credit facilities. At
that time, the outstanding balance on the credit facilities was $62.3 million
with an effective interest rate of 5.0%.

These credit facilities have been and are 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 our exposure
to interest rate risk.

In May 2001, we issued 2,950,000 shares of common stock at a price of $27.80 per
share. The net proceeds of $77.6 million were used to repay borrowings under our
$200 million acquisition credit facility and for other general corporate
purposes.

15
In June 1999, we filed a universal shelf registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission covering up to $409.2 million in value of
common stock, preferred stock and debt securities. Through August 10, 2001, we
have issued $116.5 million of common stock, preferred stock and debt securities
under the universal shelf registration statement.

We believe that our stockholders are best served by a conservative capital
structure. As of August 10, 2001, our total outstanding credit facility
borrowings and outstanding notes were $292.3 million or approximately 23.1% of
our total market capitalization of $1.3 billion. We define our total market
capitalization as the:

o Shares of our common stock outstanding multiplied by the last reported sales
price of the common stock on the NYSE on August 10, 2001 of $29.38 per share;
o Plus the liquidation value of the Class B Preferred Stock;
o Plus the liquidation value of the Class C Preferred Stock; and plus
o The outstanding borrowings on the credit facilities and outstanding notes at
August 10, 2001.

Historically, we have met our long-term capital needs through the issuance of
common stock, preferred stock and investment grade, long-term, unsecured notes.
We believe that the Company should have the majority of its future issuances of
securities be in the form of common stock. However, we may issue additional
preferred stock or notes from time to time. We will issue common stock when we
believe that our share price is at a level that allows for the proceeds of any
offering to be invested on an accretive basis into additional properties. In
addition, we may issue common stock to pay down our notes or credit facilities.
We seek to maintain a conservative debt level on our balance sheet, which should
result in solid interest and fixed charge coverage ratios.

We received investment grade corporate credit ratings on our senior unsecured
notes from Fitch IBCA Duff & Phelps; Moody's Investor Service, Inc.; and
Standard & Poor's Rating Group in December 1996. Currently, Fitch IBCA 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 our senior notes. These
ratings could change based upon, among other things, our results of operations
and financial condition.

We have also received credit ratings from the same rating agencies on our
preferred stock. Fitch IBCA Duff & Phelps has assigned a rating of BBB-, Moody's
Investor Service, Inc. has assigned a rating of "Ba1", and Standard & Poor's
Rating Group has assigned a rating of BB+. These ratings could change based
upon, among other things, our results of operations and financial condition.

Distributions. Distributions are paid to our common stockholders and Class C
Preferred stockholders on a monthly basis and paid to our Class B Preferred
stockholders on a quarterly basis if, as and when declared by our Board of
Directors. The Class B Preferred stockholders receive cumulative distributions
at a rate of 9.375% per annum on the $25 per share liquidation preference
(equivalent to $2.3436 per annum per share). The Class C Preferred stockholders
receive cumulative distributions at a rate of 9.5% per annum on the $25 per
share liquidation preference (equivalent to $2.3748 per annum per share).

16
The July 2001 distribution of $0.1875 per common share represents a current
annualized distribution of $2.25 per share, and an annualized distribution yield
of approximately 7.7% based on the last reported sale price of $29.38 of our
common stock, on the NYSE on August 10, 2001. In order to maintain our tax
status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we are generally required to
distribute dividends to our stockholders aggregating annually at least 90% (95%
prior to 2001) of our REIT taxable income (determined without regard to the
dividends paid deduction and by excluding net capital gains). In 2000, our
distributions totaled approximately 119.0% of our REIT taxable income. We intend
to continue to make distributions to our stockholders that are sufficient to
meet this requirement.

Future distributions by us will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors
and will depend on, among other things, our results of operations, financial
condition and capital requirements, the annual distribution requirements under
the REIT provisions of the Code, our debt service requirements and other factors
as the Board of Directors may deem relevant. In addition, our credit facilities
contain financial covenants that could limit the amount of distributions payable
by us 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 or preferred stock in the event that we fail to pay when due (subject to
any applicable grace period) any principal or interest on borrowings under our
credit facilities.

We consider FFO and adjusted FFO to be appropriate measures of the performance
of equity REITs. Financial analysts use FFO and adjusted FFO in evaluating REITs
and FFO and adjusted FFO can be a way to measure a REIT's ability to make cash
distribution payments. Presentation of this information allows the reader to
compare the performance of different REITs, although it should be noted that not
all REITs calculate FFO and adjusted FFO the same way so comparisons with other
REITs may not be meaningful.

FFO and adjusted 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 Realty Income's performance. In addition, FFO and adjusted FFO
should not be considered as an alternative to reviewing our cash flows from
operating, investing, and financing activities as a measure of liquidity, of our
ability to make cash distributions or our ability to pay interest payments.


RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following is a comparison of our results of operations for the three and six
months ended June 30, 2001 to the three and six months ended June 30, 2000.

Revenue

Rental revenue was $29.6 million for the second quarter of 2001 versus $28.3
million for the comparable quarter of 2000, an increase of 4.6% or $1.3 million.
The increase in rental revenue was primarily due to the acquisition of
properties during 2000 and the first six months of 2001. Included in rental
revenue for the second quarter of 2001 and 2000 is $351,000 and $28,000,
respectively, from properties owned by Crest Net Lease. Properties owned by
Crest Net Lease are held for sale.

19
Rental revenue was $59.1 million for the first six months of 2001 versus $56.7
million for the comparable period of 2000, an increase of 4.2% or $2.4 million.
The increase in rental revenue was primarily due to the acquisition of
properties during 2000 and the first six months of 2001. Included in rental
revenue for 2001 and 2000 is $779,000 and $28,000, respectively, from properties
owned by Crest Net Lease. Properties owned by Crest Net Lease are held for sale.

Of the 1,062 properties in the portfolio as of June 30, 2001, 1,057 are
single-tenant properties with the remaining properties being multi-tenant
properties. Of the 1,057 single-tenant properties, 1,034, or 97.8%, were net
leased with a weighted average remaining lease term (excluding extension
options) of approximately 9.4 years. Weighted average lease term is based upon
base rent as of June 30, 2001. Of our 1,034 leased single-tenant properties,
1,025 or 99.1% were under leases that provide for increases in rents through:

o Base rent increases tied to a consumer price index with adjustment ceilings;
o Overage rent based on a percentage of the tenants' gross sales; or
o Fixed increases.

Some leases contain more than one of these clauses. Percentage rent, which is
included in rental revenue during the second quarter of 2001 and 2000, was
$87,000 and $77,000, respectively. Percentage rent, which is included in rental
revenue during the first six months of 2001 and 2000, was $206,000 and $383,000,
respectively. Same store rents generated on 997 properties leased during all of
both the second quarter of 2001 and 2000 increased by 2.6%, to $26.33 million
from $25.67 million. Same store rents generated on the same 997 properties
leased during all of both the first six months of 2001 and 2000 increased by
2.0%, to $52.61 million from $51.60 million.

Many of our leases call for rent increases every five years. Over the past four
years we have acquired approximately $517.9 million in new properties that
represent approximately 48% of our total portfolio, excluding properties held
for sale. Many of these properties are due to generate their initial rent
increases during 2002 to 2004. As such, we believe our same store rent growth is
likely to increase with the onset of rent increases from the newer properties
over the next few years.

Our portfolio of retail real estate owned under net leases continues to perform
well and provide dependable lease revenue supporting the payment of monthly
dividends. As of June 30, 2001, our portfolio of 1,062 retail properties was
97.8% leased with 23 properties available for lease.

Of the 23 properties not leased at June 30, 2001, one location has been sold and
transactions to lease or sell 6 properties were underway or completed as of
July 31, 2001. We anticipate these transactions to be completed during the third
and fourth quarters of 2001; although we cannot guarantee that all of these
properties can be sold or leased within this period.

During the last six months, we made progress in the re-lease of the 21
properties formerly occupied by Flooring America that became vacant during the
third quarter of 2000. As of July 31, 2001, transactions were underway or
completed on 16 of the 21 properties. The Flooring America stores are generally
in retail locations that lend themselves to a wide variety of retail uses. In
addition, the rents previously received on these properties were mainly at
prevailing market rents. We believe we will complete the re-leasing of the
remaining five properties and the transactions underway during 2001; however, we
cannot guarantee you that this will occur.

20
During the second quarter of 2001, Crest Net Lease sold one property for $1.5
million and we recognized a gain on the sale on real estate acquired for sale of
$161,000, before income taxes. During the first six months of 2001, Crest Net
Lease sold five properties for $15.5 million and we recognized a gain on the
sale on real estate acquired for sale of $2.1 million, before income taxes.
Crest Net did not sell any properties during the first six months of 2000.

As of June 30, 2001, Crest Net Lease had $13.8 million invested in six
properties held for sale. It is Crest Net Lease's intent to carry an average
inventory of between $20 to $25 million in real estate on an ongoing basis.
Crest Net generates an earnings spread on the differential between the lease
payments it receives and the cost of capital used to acquire the properties. It
is our belief that at this level of inventory, these earnings will more than
cover the ongoing operating expenses of Crest Net.

Expenses

The following is a summary of the five components of interest expense for the
three months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 (dollars in thousands):

Average outstanding balances $326,148 $ 372,509 $ (46,361)
Average interest rates 7.51% 7.83% (0.32)%
</TABLE>

Interest on outstanding loans and notes decreased by $1.1 million in the second
quarter of 2001 as compared to the second quarter of 2000. The decrease was
primarily due to a decrease of $46.4 million in the average outstanding
balances. During the first six months of 2001, the Federal Reserve decreased the
federal funds rate six times by a total of 275 basis points. Correspondingly,
the average borrowing rate on our credit facilities has declined during the same
period. As of June 30, 2001, the average interest rate on our credit facility
borrowings of $70.2 million was 5.13%, the average interest rates on our notes
payable of $230 million was 7.99%, and the average interest rate on our combined

</TABLE>

Interest on outstanding loans and notes was $551,000 lower in the first six
months of 2001 as compared to the first six months of 2000. The decrease was
primarily due to a decrease of $8.5 million in the average outstanding balances.

Our debt service coverage ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000
was 3.9 times and 3.6 times, respectively. Debt service coverage ratio is
calculated as follows: earnings (income from operations) before interest, taxes,
provisions for impairment losses on depreciable real estate, and depreciation
and amortization (EBITDA) divided by interest expense. Our EBITDA for the six
months ended June 30, 2001 and 2000 was $56.4 million and $52.5 million,
respectively. This information should not be considered as an alternative to any
measure of performance as promulgated under GAAP. Our calculation of EBITDA may
be different from the calculation used by other companies and, therefore,
comparability may be limited.

Depreciation and amortization was $7.2 million in the second quarter of 2001
versus $6.8 million in the second quarter of 2000. Depreciation and amortization
was $14.4 million in the first six months of 2001 versus $13.6 million in the
first quarter of 2000. The increase in 2001 was primarily due to the acquisition
of properties during 2000 and 2001.

General and administrative expenses increased by $167,000 to $1.9 million in the
second quarter of 2001 versus $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2000.
Included in general and administrative expenses for 2001 and 2000 are $74,000
and $127,000, respectively, of expenses attributable to Crest Net Lease.
Excluding the Crest Net expenses, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenue were 6.0% in the second quarter of 2001 as compared to
5.5% in 2000. General and administrative expenses, excluding expenses
attributable to Crest Net, increased primarily due to increases in the costs of
living, which includes increases in payroll costs.

22
General and administrative expenses increased by $633,000 to $3.9 million in the
first six months of 2001 versus $3.3 million in the first six months of 2000.
Included in general and administrative expenses for 2001 and 2000 are $332,000
and $127,000, respectively, of expenses attributable to Crest Net Lease.
Excluding the Crest Net expenses, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenue were 5.8% in the first six months of 2001 as compared to
5.5% in 2000. General and administrative expenses, excluding expenses
attributable to Crest Net, increased primarily due to increases in the costs of
living, which includes increases in payroll costs.

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 June 30, 2001, 23 properties were
available for lease, as compared to 25 at December 31, 2000 and 16 at June 30,
2000.

Property expenses were $564,000 in the second quarter of 2001 and $466,000 in
second quarter of 2000. The $98,000 increase in property expenses is primarily
attributable to an increase in portfolio property insurance and costs associated
with properties available for lease.

Property expenses were $1.2 million in the first six months of 2001 and $1.0
million in the first six months of 2000. The $207,000 increase in property
expenses is primarily attributable to an increase in portfolio property
insurance and costs associated with properties available for lease.

Other expenses increased $403,000 to $439,000 in the second quarter of 2001
versus $36,000 in the second quarter of 2000. The increase in 2001 is primarily
attributable to an increase in Crest Net Lease income taxes of $202,000 and a
$200,000 provision for impairment on depreciable real estate. We review
long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of the asset may not be recoverable.

The following is a summary of our other expenses for the three months ended June
30, 2001 and 2000 (dollars in thousands):

During the second quarter of 2001, we sold three investment properties for a
total of $2.6 million and recognized a gain of $164,000. During the second
quarter of 2000, we sold five investment properties for $2.1 million and
recognized a gain of $938,000.

During the first six months of 2001, we sold 13 investment properties for a
total of $19.7 million and recognized a gain of $6.1 million. During the first
six months of 2000, we sold six investment properties for $3.5 million and
recognized a gain of $1.6 million.

We have an active portfolio management program that incorporates the sale of
properties when we believe the reinvestment of the net sales proceeds can
generate higher returns, enhance the credit quality of our real estate portfolio
or increase the average lease term. As of June 30, 2001, we classified real
estate with a carrying amount of $15.7 million as held for sale. Additionally,
we anticipate selling properties from our investment portfolio, which have not
yet been specifically identified. We anticipate we will receive up to $50
million in proceeds from the sale of properties during the next 12 months. We
intend to invest these proceeds into new properties.

We declared preferred stock dividends of $2.4 million during both the second
quarters of 2001 and 2000. We declared preferred stock dividends of $4.9 million
during both the first six months of 2001 and 2000.


Net Income

Net income available to common stockholders was $11.0 million and $10.4 million,
respectively in the second quarter of 2001 and 2000, an increase of $613,000 or
5.8%. Net income available to common stockholders was $27.1 million and $20.9
million, respectively for the first six months of 2001 and 2000, an increase of
$6.2 million or 29.7%.

24
The calculation to determine net income available to common stockholders
includes gains and losses from the sale of investment properties. The amount of
gains and losses vary from period to period based on the timing of property
sales and can significantly impact net income available to common stockholders.
The gain recognized from property sales during the first six months of 2001 was
$4.5 million greater than the gain recognized from property sales during the
first six months of 2000. PROPERTIES

As of June 30, 2001, we owned a diversified portfolio of 1,062 properties
located in 46 states with over 8.9 million square feet of leasable space. In
addition to our real estate portfolio, our subsidiary Crest Net Lease owned six
properties. Our portfolio of retail properties is leased to 72 retail chains
doing business in 23 retail industries. At June 30, 2001, 1,034 or 97.4% of the
1,062 properties were leased under net-lease agreements. Net leases typically
require the tenant to be responsible for minimum monthly rent and property
operating expenses including property taxes, insurance and maintenance plus,
typically, future rent increases (generally subject to ceilings) based on
increases in the consumer price index, fixed increases or additional rent
calculated as a percentage of the tenant's gross sales above a specified level.

Our net-leased retail properties are primarily leased to regional and national
retail chain store operators. The average leasable retail space of the 1,062
properties is approximately 8,400 square feet on approximately 60,900 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, adequate
access and proximity to a sufficient population base to constitute a suitable
market or trade area for the retailer's business.

IMPACT OF INFLATION

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

Approximately 97.4%, or 1,034, 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 our 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 July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 141,
Business Combinations. Statement No. 141 requires that the purchase method of
accounting be used for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001.
The Company is required to adopt the provisions of Statement No. 141
immediately. The adoption of Statement No. 141 will not have a material effect
on our financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

In July 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement No. 142,
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Statement No. 142 will require that
goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives no longer be
amortized, but instead tested for impairment at least annually in accordance
with the provisions of Statement No. 142. Statement No. 142 will also require
that intangible assets with definite useful lives be amortized over their
respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and
reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 121, Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of. The
Company is required to adopt Statement No. 142 effective January 1, 2002. We
have not yet determined the impact of Statement No. 142 on our financial
position, results of operations or liquidity.

We are exposed to interest rate changes primarily as a result of our credit
facilities and long-term notes used to maintain liquidity and expand our real
estate investment portfolio and operations. Our interest rate risk management
objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash
flow and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve our objectives we
borrow our long-term debt primarily at fixed rates and may selectively enter
into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate lock agreements,
interest rate swaps and caps in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a
related financial instrument. We are not a party to any derivative financial
instruments at June 30, 2001. We do not enter into any transactions for
speculative or trading purposes.

Our interest rate risk is monitored using a variety of techniques. The table
below presents the principal amounts, weighted average interest rates, fair
values and other terms required by year of expected maturity to evaluate the
expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes (dollars in table
in millions).

<S> <C> <C> <C> <C> <C>
Fixed rate debt -- -- $ 230.0(1) $ 230.0 $ 225.9
Average interest rate -- -- 7.99% 7.99%

Average interest rate -- 5.13% -- 5.13%


<FN>
(1) $110 million matures in 2007, $100 million matures in 2008 and $20 million
matures in 2009.

(2) We base the fair value of the fixed rate debt at June 30, 2001 on the
closing market price or indicative price per each note. The fair value of the
variable rate debt approximates its carrying value because its terms are similar
to those available in the market place.
</FN>
</TABLE>
The table incorporates only those exposures that exist as of June 30, 2001, it
does not consider those exposures or positions that could arise after that date.
As a result, our ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to interest rate
fluctuations would depend on the exposures that arise during the period, our
hedging strategies at the time, and interest rates.
