Note 2 – Real Estate – Investment Portfolio:

Leases – The following outlines key information for NNN's Investment Property leases:

Lease classification:
Operating		1,270

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