LLC (“Goldman”) and Wells Fargo Securities International Limited (“Wells Fargo”) are acting as representatives (Barclays, BNP, Merrill Lynch, Goldman and Wells Fargo, in such capacities, the “Representatives”), with respect to the sale by the Company and the purchase by the Underwriters, acting severally and not jointly, of (i) £350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.000% Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) and (ii) £350,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.250% Notes due 2041 (the “2041 Notes” and, together with the 2029 Notes, the “Securities”). The Securities are to be issued pursuant to an indenture dated as of October 28, 1998 (the “Indenture”) between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as successor trustee (the “Trustee”) to The Bank of New York, the original trustee (the “Original Trustee”). In connection with the issuance of the Securities, the Company will enter into a Paying Agency Agreement (the “Agency Agreement”), to be dated as of September 4, 2024, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch (“BNY London”), as a paying agent for the Securities (in such capacity, the “Agent”).

The Company understands that the Underwriters propose to make a public offering of the Securities as soon as the Representatives deem advisable after this Agreement has been executed and delivered.

On January 23, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition (the “Acquisition”) of Spirit Realty Capital, Inc. (“Spirit” or the “Acquired Company”) pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 29, 2023, as amended and supplemented, if applicable, by and among the Company, Saints MD Subsidiary, Inc., a Maryland corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), and Spirit. Unless otherwise expressly stated herein, all references to “subsidiaries” of the Company and similar references shall include, but not be limited to, Spirit and all other subsidiaries acquired by the Company pursuant to the Acquisition.

The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-277150) (the “Current Registration Statement”) for the registration of shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), shares of its preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), its debt securities (including the Securities), depositary shares representing fractional interests in shares of Preferred Stock, and warrants to purchase its debt securities, Common Stock, Preferred Stock or depositary shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), including the related preliminary prospectus or prospectuses.

All references in this Agreement to properties or improvements “owned by” or “of” the Company or any of its subsidiaries shall be deemed to mean and include all properties and improvements which are leased by the Company or any of its subsidiaries, as lessee.

SECTION 1. Representations and Warranties.

(a)         Representations and Warranties by the Company. The Company represents and warrants to each Underwriter as of the date hereof, as of the Applicable Time referred to in Section 1(a)(i) hereof, and as of the Closing Time referred to in Section 2(b) hereof, and agrees with each Underwriter, as follows:

(i)           Compliance with Registration Requirements. (A) At the time that the Registration Statement was originally filed, (B) at the time of the most recent amendment thereto for the purposes of complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the 1933 Act (whether such amendment was by post-effective amendment, incorporated report filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act or form of prospectus), (C) at the time the Company or any person acting on its behalf (within the meaning, for this clause only, of Rule 163(c) of the 1933 Act Regulations) made any offer relating to the Securities in reliance on the exemption of Rule 163 of the 1933 Act Regulations and (D) at the date hereof, the Company (x) was and is a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405 of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 405”) and (y) was not and is not an “ineligible issuer” as defined in Rule 405. The Registration Statement is an “automatic shelf registration statement,” as defined in Rule 405, and the Securities, since their registration on the Registration Statement, have been and remain eligible for registration by the Company on an “automatic shelf registration statement” as defined in Rule 405. The Company has not received from the Commission any notice pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 401(g)(2)”) objecting to the use of the automatic shelf registration statement form. At the earliest time after the original filing of the Registration Statement that the Company or another offering participant (with respect to the offering contemplated hereby) made a bona fide offer (within the meaning of Rule 164(h)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations) of the Securities, the Company was not an “ineligible issuer,” as defined in Rule 405. The Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “1939 Act”), and the Trustee has duly filed with the Commission a Statement of Eligibility on Form T-1 as an exhibit to the Registration Statement or pursuant to Section 305(b)(2) of the 1939 Act.

The Registration Statement became effective upon filing under Rule 462(e) of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 462(e)”) on February 16, 2024, and any post-effective amendment thereto also became effective upon filing under Rule 462(e). No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued under the 1933 Act and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or are pending or, to the knowledge of the Company, are contemplated by the Commission, and any request on the part of the Commission for additional information has been complied with.

4

Any offer that was a written communication relating to the Securities made by the Company or any person acting on its behalf (within the meaning, for this paragraph only, of Rule 163(c) of the 1933 Act Regulations) prior to the time that the Registration Statement was originally filed has been filed with the Commission in accordance with the exemption provided by Rule 163 of the 1933 Act Regulations (“Rule 163”) and otherwise complied with the requirements of Rule 163, including without limitation the legending requirement, to qualify such offer for the exemption from Section 5(c) of the 1933 Act provided by Rule 163.

At the respective times the Registration Statement originally became effective and any amendment thereto became effective, at the time (if subsequent to the time that the Registration Statement originally became effective) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K was filed with the Commission, at each “new effective date” with respect to the Underwriters pursuant to Rule 430B(f)(2) of the 1933 Act Regulations, and at the Closing Time, the Registration Statement and any amendments and supplements thereto complied and will comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the 1933 Act, the 1933 Act Regulations, the 1939 Act, and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the 1939 Act (the “1939 Act Regulations”), and did not and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and, at the date hereof and at the Closing Time, neither the Prospectus nor any amendments or supplements thereto contained or will contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or will omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Each preliminary prospectus and Prospectus filed as part of the Registration Statement as originally filed or as part of any amendment thereto, or filed pursuant to Rule 424 of the 1933 Act Regulations, complied when so filed in all material respects with the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations and, if applicable, each preliminary prospectus and the Prospectus delivered to the Underwriters for use in connection with this offering was identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T of the Commission.

As of the Applicable Time, neither (x) all Issuer General Use Free Writing Prospectuses (as defined below) issued at or prior to the Applicable Time (including, without limitation, the Pricing Term Sheet, as hereinafter defined) and the Statutory Prospectus, considered together (collectively, the “General Disclosure Package”), nor (y) any individual Issuer Limited Use Free Writing Prospectus, when considered together with the General Disclosure Package, included or will include any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or will omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, as of its issue date and at all subsequent times through the completion of the public offer and sale of the Securities or until any earlier date that the Company notified or notifies the Representatives as described in Section 3(f), did not, does not and will not include any information that conflicted, conflicts or will conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement, the Statutory Prospectus or the Prospectus, including any document incorporated by reference therein that has not been superseded or modified.

The representations and warranties in this subsection 1(a)(i) shall not apply to statements in or omissions from the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use therein.

(vii)        Good Standing of Subsidiaries. Each “significant subsidiary” as defined in Rule 1-02(w) of Regulation S-X (each, a “Subsidiary” and, collectively, the “Subsidiaries”) of the Company has been duly organized and is validly existing as a partnership, limited liability company, business trust or corporation, as the case may be, in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and has power and authority as a partnership, limited liability company, business trust or corporation, as the case may be, to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus; each such Subsidiary is duly qualified as a foreign partnership, limited liability company, business trust or corporation, as the case may be, to transact business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which such qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except where the failure so to qualify or to be in good standing would not result in a Material Adverse Effect; except as otherwise disclosed in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus and except as would not result in a Material Adverse Effect, all of the issued and outstanding partnership interests, limited liability company interests, business trust interests and shares of capital stock, as the case may be, of each such Subsidiary have been duly authorized (if applicable) and validly issued and are fully paid and are non-assessable (except to the extent that the general partners of Subsidiaries which are partnerships may be liable for the obligations of such partnerships) and are owned by the Company, directly or through subsidiaries, free and clear of any security interest, mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance, claim or equity; except as would not result in a Material Adverse Effect, none of the outstanding partnership interests, limited liability company interests, business trust interests or shares of capital stock, as the case may be, of such Subsidiaries were issued in violation of preemptive or other similar rights arising by operation of law, under the partnership agreement, declaration of trust or trust agreement, limited liability company agreement (or other similar agreement) or charter or bylaws, as the case may be, of any such Subsidiary or under any agreement or instrument to which the Company or any such Subsidiary is a party.

(xi)         Absence of Defaults and Conflicts. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is in violation of its charter or bylaws, its partnership agreement, declaration of trust or trust agreement, or its limited liability company agreement (or other similar agreement), as the case may be, or in default in the performance or observance of any obligation, agreement, covenant or condition contained in any contract, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan or credit agreement, note, lease or other agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them may be bound or to which any of the respective properties or assets of the Company or any subsidiary is subject (collectively, “Agreements and Instruments”), except for such defaults that would not have a Material Adverse Effect; and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Agency Agreement, the Indenture and the Securities and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein and therein (including the issuance and sale of the Securities and the use of the proceeds from the sale of the Securities as described in the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus under the caption “Use of Proceeds”) and compliance by the Company with its obligations hereunder and thereunder have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and do not and will not, whether with or without the giving of notice or passage of time or both, conflict with or constitute a breach of, or default or Repayment Event (as defined below) under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of the Company or any subsidiary pursuant to, any agreement or instrument, except for such conflicts, breaches or defaults or liens, charges or encumbrances that, individually or in the aggregate, would not have a Material Adverse Effect, nor will such action result in any violation of the provisions of the charter or bylaws of the Company or any applicable law, rule, regulation, or governmental or court judgment, order, writ or decree. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is subject to any governmental or court judgment, order, writ or decree that is material with respect to the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise. As used herein, a “Repayment Event” means any event or condition which gives the holder of any note, debenture or other evidence of indebtedness (or any person acting on such holder’s behalf) the right to require the repurchase, redemption or repayment of all or a portion of such indebtedness by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company or any of its subsidiaries.

(xii)        Absence of Labor Dispute.

The Company, subject to Section 3(b), will comply with the requirements of Rule 430B and will notify the Representatives immediately, and confirm the notice in writing, (i) when any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or new registration statement relating to the Securities shall become effective, or any supplement to the Prospectus or any amended Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus shall have been filed, (ii) of the receipt of any comments from the Commission, (iii) of any request by the Commission for any amendment to the Registration Statement or the filing of a new registration statement or any amendment or supplement to the Prospectus or any document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference or otherwise deemed to be a part of or included in any of the foregoing (including, without limitation, pursuant to Rule 430B) or for additional information, (iv) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or such new registration statement or of any order preventing or suspending the use of any preliminary prospectus, or of the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or of the initiation or threatening of any proceedings for any of such purposes or of any examination pursuant to Section 8(d) or Section 8(e) of the 1933 Act concerning the Registration Statement or any such new registration statement, or (v) if the Company becomes the subject of a proceeding under Section 8A of the 1933 Act in connection with the offering of the Securities. The Company will effect the filings required under Rule 424(b), in the manner and within the time period required by Rule 424(b) (without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8)), and, if applicable, will take such steps as it deems necessary to ascertain promptly whether the form of prospectus supplement or prospectus transmitted for filing under Rule 424(b) was received for filing by the Commission and, in the event that it was not, it will promptly file such prospectus supplement or prospectus, as the case may be. The Company will make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any stop order and, if any stop order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible moment.

21

(b)         Filing of Amendments. The Company will give the Representatives notice of its intention to file or prepare any amendment to the Registration Statement or new registration statement relating to the Securities or any amendment, supplement or revision to either any preliminary prospectus (including any prospectus included in the Registration Statement or amendment thereto at the time it became effective) or to the Prospectus, whether pursuant to the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act or otherwise, will furnish the Representatives with copies of any such documents a reasonable amount of time prior to such proposed filing or use, as the case may be, and will not file or use any such document to which the Representatives or counsel for the Underwriters shall object.

(c)          Issuer Free Writing Prospectuses. The Company represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Representatives, and each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, represents and agrees that, unless it obtains the prior consent of the Company and the Representatives, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433, or that would otherwise constitute a “free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 405, required to be filed with the Commission, except that the Underwriters may use a free writing prospectus containing the information contained in the Pricing Term Sheet. Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Company and the Representatives is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus” and, for purposes of clarity, the parties hereby agree that each Issuer General Use Free Writing Prospectus listed on Schedule D hereto (if any) is a Permitted Free Writing Prospectus. The Company represents that it has treated or agrees that it will treat each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433, and has complied and will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including timely filing with the Commission where required, legending and record keeping.

22

(d)         Delivery of Registration Statement. The Company has furnished or will deliver to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters, without charge, as many signed and conformed copies of the Registration Statement as originally filed and of each amendment thereto (including exhibits filed therewith or incorporated by reference therein and documents incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein) as the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters may reasonably request. The copies of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereto furnished to the Underwriters will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, if any, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.

(e)          Delivery of Prospectuses. The Company has delivered to each Underwriter, without charge, as many copies of each preliminary prospectus, if any, as such Underwriter reasonably requested, and the Company has delivered to each Underwriter, without charge, as many copies of each Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, if any, as such Underwriter reasonably requested, and the Company hereby consents to the use of such copies for purposes permitted by the 1933 Act. The Company will furnish to each Underwriter, without charge, during the period when the Prospectus is required to be delivered under the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act (or would be required to be delivered upon request by a purchaser pursuant to Rule 173 under the 1933 Act), such number of copies of the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) as such Underwriter may reasonably request in writing (which may be by email). The Prospectus and any amendments or supplements thereto furnished to the Underwriters will be identical to the electronically transmitted copies thereof filed with the Commission pursuant to EDGAR, except to the extent permitted by Regulation S-T.

23

(f)          Continued Compliance with Securities Laws. The Company will comply with the 1933 Act and the 1933 Act Regulations and the 1934 Act and the 1934 Act Regulations and the 1939 Act and the 1939 Act Regulations so as to permit the completion of the distribution of the Securities as contemplated in this Agreement and in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus. If at any time when a prospectus is required by the 1933 Act to be delivered (or would be required to be delivered upon request by a purchaser pursuant to Rule 173 under the 1933 Act) in connection with sales of the Securities, any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which it is necessary, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters or for the Company, to amend the Registration Statement or amend or supplement the Prospectus in order that the Prospectus will not include any untrue statements of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading in the light of the circumstances existing at the time it is delivered to a purchaser, or if it shall be necessary, in the opinion of any such counsel, at any such time to amend the Registration Statement or to file a new registration statement relating to the Securities or amend or supplement the Prospectus in order to comply with the requirements of the 1933 Act or the 1933 Act Regulations, the Company will promptly prepare and file with the Commission, subject to Section 3(b), such amendment, supplement or new registration statement as may be necessary to correct such statement or omission or to make the Registration Statement or the Prospectus comply with such requirements, the Company will use its best efforts to have such amendment or new registration statement declared effective as soon as practicable (if it is not an automatic shelf registration statement with respect to the Securities), and the Company will furnish to the Underwriters such number of copies of such amendment, supplement or new registration statement as the Underwriters may reasonably request. If at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus conflicted or would conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement (or any other registration statement relating to the Securities) or the Statutory Prospectus or any other preliminary prospectus, the Company will promptly notify the Representatives and will promptly cease use of such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or amend or supplement, at its own expense, such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus to eliminate or correct such conflict. If at any time following issuance of an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus included or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at that subsequent time, not misleading, the Company will promptly notify the Representatives and will promptly cease use of such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus and amend or supplement, at its own expense, either (a) such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or (b) the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus, to eliminate or correct such conflict, untrue statement or omission.

(g)         Blue Sky Qualifications. The Company will use its best efforts, in cooperation with the Underwriters, to qualify the Securities for offering and sale under the applicable securities laws of such states and other jurisdictions of the United States as the Representatives may designate and to maintain such qualifications in effect for a period of not less than one year from the date hereof; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise so subject. In each jurisdiction in which the Securities have been so qualified, the Company will file such statements and reports as may be required by the laws of such jurisdiction to continue such qualification in effect for a period of not less than one year from the date hereof.

(h)         Rule 158. The Company will timely file such reports pursuant to the 1934 Act as are necessary in order to make generally available to its security holders as soon as practicable an earnings statement for the purposes of, and to provide to the Underwriters the benefits contemplated by, the last paragraph of Section 11(a) of the 1933 Act.

The Company will take all other action necessary or appropriate to permit the public offering and sale of the Securities to continue as contemplated in the registration statement that was the subject of the Rule 401(g)(2) notice or for which the Company has otherwise become ineligible. References herein to the Registration Statement shall include such new registration statement or post-effective amendment, as the case may be.

(l)          Filing Fees. The Company shall pay the required Commission filing fees relating to the Securities within the time required by Rule 456(b)(1) of the 1933 Act Regulations without regard to the proviso therein and otherwise in accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r) of the 1933 Act Regulations (including, if applicable, by updating the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in accordance with Rule 456(b)(1)(ii) either in a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or in the manner specified by Rule 424(g) in the Prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)).

25

(o)         No Stabilization. Neither the Company nor its affiliates, nor any persons acting on any of their behalf, has taken or will take, directly or indirectly, any action designed to cause or to result in, or that has caused or resulted or which might reasonably be expected to cause or result in, the stabilization in violation of applicable laws or manipulation of the price of any debt security of the Company to facilitate the sale or resale of any Securities.

(i)           against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including, without limitation, the Rule 430B Information, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact included in (A) any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package (or any part thereof) or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) or (B) any materials or information provided to investors by, or with the approval of, the Company in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Securities, including any road show or investor presentations made by the Company (whether in person or electronically and including any live or recorded road show or presentations), or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(ii)          against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, provided that (subject to Section 6(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company; and

(iii)         against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Representatives), reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or (ii) above;

30

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto).

(b)         Indemnification of Company, Directors and Officers. Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in subsection (a) of this Section, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), including, without limitation, the Rule 430B Information, or any preliminary prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, the General Disclosure Package (or any part thereof) or the Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use therein.

(c)          Actions against Parties; Notification. Each indemnified party shall give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(a) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Representatives, and, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(b) above, counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by the Company.

In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 6 or Section 7 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

31

(d)         Settlement without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by Section 6(a)(ii) hereof effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 60 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 45 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

SECTION 7. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 6 hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total underwriting discount received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth on the cover of the Prospectus bear to the aggregate initial public offering price of the Securities as set forth on such cover.

The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 7 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 7. The aggregate amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 7 shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

32

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of any such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.

No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

For purposes of this Section 7, each person that is an affiliate or a selling agent of any Underwriter and that is involved in the offering or sale of the Securities and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the Registration Statement, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule A hereto and not joint.

SECTION 8. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement and in certificates of officers of the Company submitted pursuant hereto shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or any affiliate, selling agent or controlling person of any Underwriter, or by or on behalf of the Company, and shall survive delivery of the Securities to the Underwriters.

33

SECTION 9. Termination of Agreement.

(a)         Termination; General. The Representatives may terminate this Agreement, by notice to the Company, at any time at or prior to Closing Time (i) if in the reasonable judgment of the Representatives, there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Prospectus or the General Disclosure Package, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs, financial prospects or business prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) if there has occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or the international financial markets, any outbreak of hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or development involving a prospective change in national or international political, financial or economic conditions, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of the Representatives, impracticable or inadvisable to market the Securities or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Securities, or (iii) if trading in any securities of the Company has been suspended or limited by the Commission, the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Global Market, or if trading generally on the NYSE American or the New York Stock Exchange or the London Stock Exchange plc or in the Nasdaq Global Market has been suspended or limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices have been required, by any of said exchanges or by such system or by order of the Commission, the FINRA or any other governmental authority, or a material disruption has occurred in commercial banking or securities settlement or clearance services in the United States, or (iv) if a banking moratorium has been declared by either Federal, California, New York, United Kingdom or European Union authorities, or (v) if since the date of this Agreement, there has occurred a downgrading in the rating assigned to the Securities, any class or series of the Company’s outstanding Preferred Stock, if any, or any of the Company’s other debt securities by any nationally recognized securities rating agency, or any such securities rating agency has publicly announced that it has under surveillance or review, with possible negative implications or without indicating the direction of the possible change, its rating of the Securities, any class or series of Preferred Stock or any of the Company’s other debt securities, or (vi) there shall have occurred a material adverse change since the date hereof in the U.S., United Kingdom or European Union taxation affecting the Securities or the transfer thereof.

(b)         Liabilities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section, such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as provided in Section 4 hereof, and provided further that Sections 6, 7, 13, 14, 15, 19, 20 and 22 shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 10. Default by One or More of the Underwriters. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail at the Closing Time to purchase the Securities which it or they are obligated to purchase under this Agreement at such time (the “Defaulted Securities”), the Representatives shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Representatives shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24-hour period, then:

(a)         if the aggregate principal amount of the Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities set forth on Schedule A hereto, each of the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all non-defaulting Underwriters, or

(b)         if the aggregate principal amount of the Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities set forth on Schedule A hereto, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter.

34

No action taken pursuant to this Section shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default.

In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement, either the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Time, for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements. As used herein, the term “Underwriter” includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section 10.

SECTION 12. Parties. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Underwriters, including any substitute Underwriters pursuant to Section 10 hereof, and the Company and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the Underwriters and the Company and their respective successors and the affiliates, selling agents, controlling persons and officers and directors referred to in Sections 6 and 7 and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. This Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Underwriters and the Company and their respective successors, and said affiliates, selling agents, controlling persons and officers and directors and their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

35

SECTION 13. Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.

(a)         In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b)         In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

SECTION 15. ICMA Agreement Among Managers. The execution of this Agreement on behalf of all parties hereto will constitute the acceptance by each Underwriter of the International Capital Market Association Standard Form Agreement Among Managers Version 1/ New York Law (the “AAM”) as amended herein and the Underwriters further agree that references in the AAM to the “Managers” shall mean the Underwriters, references to the “Lead Manager” and the “Joint Bookrunners” shall mean the Representatives, references to the “Settlement Lead Manager” shall mean the Settlement Bank, references to the “Stabilisation Manager” and the “Stabilisation Coordinator” shall mean Barclays and references to the “Subscription Agreement” shall mean this Agreement. As applicable to the Underwriters, Clause 3 of the AAM shall be deemed to be deleted in its entirety and replaced with Section 10 of this Agreement. The Underwriters further agree for the purposes of the AAM that their respective underwriting commitments as between themselves will be as set out in the table attached to this Agreement as Schedule A which shall constitute the Commitment Notification (as defined in the AAM).

SECTION 16. Stabilizing Manager. The Company hereby authorizes Barclays in its role as stabilizing manager (the “Stabilizing Manager”) to make adequate public disclosure regarding stabilization of the information required in relation to such stabilization by Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2016/1052 of 8 March 2016. The Stabilizing Manager for its own account may, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and directives, over-allot and effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the Securities at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail, but in doing so the Stabilizing Manager shall act as principal and not as agent of the Company and any loss resulting from over-allotment and stabilization shall be borne, and any profit arising therefrom shall be beneficially retained, by the Stabilizing Manager. However, stabilization may not necessarily occur. Any stabilizing action may begin on or after the date on which adequate public disclosure of the terms of the Securities takes place and, if begun, may cease at any time, but must end no later than the earlier of 30 days after the issue date of the Securities and 60 days after the date of the allotment of the Securities. Nothing contained in this paragraph shall be construed so as to require the Company to issue in excess of the aggregate principal amount of Securities specified in Schedule A hereto. Such stabilization, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time and shall be conducted by the Stabilizing Manager in accordance with all applicable laws and directives.

SECTION 17. [Intentionally omitted]

SECTION 18. UK MiFIR Product Governance. Solely for the purposes of the requirements of 3.2.7R of the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance Sourcebook (the “UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules”) regarding the mutual responsibilities of manufacturers under the UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules: (a) each Underwriter which deems itself to be a manufacturer for the purposes of the UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules (each a “UK Manufacturer” and together the “UK Manufacturers”) acknowledges to each other UK Manufacturer that it understands the responsibilities conferred upon it under the UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules relating to each of the product approval process, the target market and the proposed distribution channels as applying to the Securities and the related information set out in the Prospectus and any announcements in connection with the Securities; and (b) the Company and each Underwriter which is not a UK Manufacturer note the application of the UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules and acknowledge the target market and distribution channels identified as applying to the Securities by the UK Manufacturers and the related information set out in the Prospectus and any announcements in connection with the Securities.

38

SECTION 19. Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder into any currency other than United States dollars, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that the rate of exchange used shall be the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Underwriters could purchase United States dollars with such other currency in The City of New York on the business day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Company with respect to any sum due from the Company to any Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter or any affiliate or selling agent of any Underwriter, as the case may be, shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than United States dollars, not be discharged until the first business day following receipt by such Underwriter or controlling person or affiliate or selling agent of such Underwriter of any sum in such other currency, and only to the extent that such Underwriter or controlling person or affiliate or selling agent of such Underwriter may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase United States dollars with such other currency. If the United States dollars so purchased are less than the sum originally due to such Underwriter or controlling person or affiliate or selling agent of such Underwriter, as the case may be, hereunder, the Company agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Underwriter or controlling person or affiliate or selling agent of such Underwriter against such loss. If the United States dollars so purchased are greater than the sum originally due to such Underwriter or controlling person or affiliate or selling agent of such Underwriter hereunder, such Underwriter or controlling person or affiliate or selling agent of such Underwriter, as the case may be, shall pay to the Company an amount equal to the excess of the dollars so purchased over the sum originally due to such Underwriter or controlling person or affiliate or selling agent of such Underwriter hereunder.

SECTION 20. No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility; Tax Disclosure. (a) The Company acknowledges and agrees that: (i) the purchase and sale of the Securities pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Securities and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Company, on the one hand, and the several Underwriters, on the other hand, and does not constitute a recommendation, investment advice, or solicitation of any action by the Underwriters, and the Company is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) in connection with each transaction contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the financial advisor, agent or fiduciary of the Company or its affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other party; (iii) no Underwriter has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or other affiliates with respect to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Company or any of its subsidiaries or other affiliates on other matters) and no Underwriter has any obligation to the Company with respect to the offering contemplated hereby except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement; (iv) the several Underwriters and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Company and the several Underwriters have no obligation to disclose any of such interests by virtue of any advisory, agency or fiduciary relationship; (v) the Underwriters have not provided any legal, accounting, financial, regulatory, investment or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Company has consulted its own legal, accounting, financial, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate; and (vi) none of the activities of the Underwriters in connection with the transactions contemplated herein constitutes a recommendation, investment advice or solicitation of any action by the Underwriters with respect to any entity or natural person.

39

(b)         Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, immediately upon commencement of discussions with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, the Company (and each employee, representative or other agent of the Company) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to the Company relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. For purposes of the foregoing, the term “tax treatment” is the purported or claimed federal income tax treatment of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the term “tax structure” includes any fact that may be relevant to understanding the purported or claimed federal income tax treatment of the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 21. Integration. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company and the several Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof. The Company hereby waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Company may have against the several Underwriters with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty.

SECTION 22. GOVERNING LAW AND TIME. THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY CLAIM, CONTROVERSY OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED IN SAID STATE. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SET FORTH HEREIN, SPECIFIED TIMES OF DAY REFER TO NEW YORK CITY TIME.

SECTION 23. Waiver of Jury Trial. The Company hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

SECTION 24. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents; Counterparts. The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute one and the same agreement.

The use of electronic means of transmittal and delivery, electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based record-keeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act or the Uniform Commercial Code.

PRICING TERM SHEET

5.000% Notes due 2029

5.250% Notes due 2041

This free writing prospectus relates only to the securities described below and should be read together with Realty Income Corporation’s preliminary prospectus supplement dated August 27, 2024 (the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement”), the accompanying prospectus dated February 16, 2024 (the “Prospectus”) and the documents incorporated and deemed to be incorporated by reference therein.

Issuer:	Realty Income Corporation (the “Company”)
Securities:	5.000% Notes due 2029 (the “2029 notes”) 5.250% Notes due 2041 (the “2041 notes”) The 2029 notes and the 2041 notes (collectively, the “notes”) will each constitute a separate series of the Company’s debt securities under the indenture governing the notes.
Trade Date:	August 27, 2024
Expected Settlement Date:	September 4, 2024
Delayed Settlement:	The Company expects that the delivery of the notes will be made against payment therefor on or about the settlement date specified above, which will be the fifth business day following the date of this pricing term sheet. Under rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to that trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the notes before the business day prior to the settlement date specified above will be required, by virtue of the fact that the normal settlement date for that trade would occur prior to the closing date for the issuance of the notes, to specify an alternate settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement, and should consult their own advisors with respect to these matters.
Offering Format:	SEC registered
Net Proceeds:	Approximately £679.2 million after deducting the underwriting discount but before deducting other estimated expenses payable by the Company.
Use of Proceeds:	The Company intends to use the net proceeds it receives from this offering for general corporate purposes, which may include, among other things, the repayment or repurchase of the Company’s indebtedness (including borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility), foreign currency swaps or other hedging instruments, the development, redevelopment and acquisition of additional properties and other acquisition or business combination transactions, and the expansion and improvement of certain properties in the Company’s portfolio. For information concerning potential conflicts of interest that may arise from the use of proceeds to repay borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility or other indebtedness, see “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest) — Other Relationships” and “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest) — Conflicts of Interest” in the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement.
