Item 7.01    Regulation FD Disclosure
 
On April 12, 2012, Realty Income Corporation distributed a preliminary prospectus supplement dated April 12, 2012 relating to the offering of an additional 1,400,000 shares of our 6.625% Monthly Income Class F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”).  We included the following disclosure in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement.
 
Recent Acquisition Activity 
 
        We have acquired or entered into agreements to acquire properties with an aggregate value of approximately $514 million during the second quarter of 2012. These acquisitions consist of approximately 250 properties leased to four different tenants, and all are in industries that we already have in our portfolio. The acquisitions that have not closed yet are subject to various customary conditions to closing, the failure of which could delay the closing of one or more of these proposed acquisitions or result in one or more of these proposed transactions not closing or closing on terms that are different from those we currently contemplate. We expect to fund any of these acquisitions that close in the future with borrowings under our acquisition credit facility or possible issuances of additional securities.
 
The information in Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and is not incorporated by reference into any of the Company’s filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, whether made before or after the date hereof, regardless of any general incorporation language in any such filing.
