Item 2.01                                             Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On September 28, 2005, Realty Income Corporation (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary Crest Net Lease, Inc. completed their acquisition of 17 Kerasotes Showplace-branded theater properties, which are operated under various names, from Kerasotes Showplace Theatres, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Kerasotes Showplace”).  The Company acquired these properties for approximately $200 million.

 

Item 9.01                                             Financial Statements and Exhibits.

 

(a)                                  Financial Statements of Businesses Acquired.

 

The 17 Kerasotes Showplace-branded theater properties were acquired in a sale and leaseback transaction whereby the properties were leased on a long-term basis immediately after their acquisition to a single tenant, Kerasotes Showplace, as the seller lessee, under net leases that transfer all of the properties’ non-financial operating and holding costs to Kerasotes Showplace.

 

Set forth below is certain condensed financial information of Kerasotes Showplace, our net lease tenant, which is taken from their audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2004. The financial information presented includes only the most recent fiscal year end reporting period. The Company makes no representation as to the accuracy or completeness of the financial information provided but has no reason not to believe the accuracy or completeness of the financial information.  It should be noted that Kerasotes Showplace has no duty, contractual or otherwise, to advise the Company of any events which might have occurred subsequent to the date of such information which could affect the significance or accuracy of such information.

 

Kerasotes Showplace, as a private company, is not subject to the information filing requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and therefore is not obligated to file periodic reports, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to its business, financial condition and other matters.
