NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

June 30, 2010

(unaudited)

Note 1 – Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

Organization and Nature of Business – National Retail Properties, Inc., a Maryland corporation, is a fully integrated real estate investment trust (“REIT”) formed in 1984. The term “NNN” or the “Company” refers to National Retail Properties, Inc. and all of its consolidated subsidiaries. NNN has elected to treat certain subsidiaries as taxable REIT subsidiaries. These taxable subsidiaries and their majority owned and controlled subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “TRS.”

NNN’s operations are divided into two primary business segments: (i) investment assets, including real estate assets, mortgages and notes receivable and commercial mortgage residual interests (collectively, “Investment Assets”), and (ii) inventory real estate assets (“Inventory Assets”). NNN acquires, owns, invests in, and develops properties that are leased primarily to retail tenants under long-term net leases and primarily held for investment (“Investment Properties” or “Investment Portfolio”). As of June 30, 2010, NNN owned 1,014 Investment Properties (including 12 properties with retail operations that NNN operates), with an aggregate gross leasable area of 11,399,000 square feet, located in 43 states. In addition, as of June 30, 2010, NNN’s Investment Assets included $42,886,000 in mortgages, notes and accrued interest receivable and $15,148,000 in commercial mortgage residual interests. The Inventory Assets typically represent direct and indirect investment interests in real estate assets acquired or developed primarily for the purpose of selling the real estate (“Inventory Properties” or “Inventory Portfolio”). As of June 30, 2010, NNN owned 17 Inventory Properties.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and do not include all of the information and note disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010, may not be indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2010. Amounts as of December 31, 2009, included in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements as of that date. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, included herein, should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as well as Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in NNN’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

Principles of Consolidation – NNN’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of each of the respective majority owned and controlled affiliates, including transactions whereby NNN has been determined to be the primary beneficiary in accordance with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) guidance included in Consolidation. All significant intercompany account balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Investment in an Unconsolidated Affiliate – NNN accounts for its investment in an unconsolidated affiliate under the equity method of accounting.

Cash and Cash Equivalents – NNN considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents consist of cash and money market accounts. Cash equivalents are stated at cost plus accrued interest, which approximates fair value.

Cash accounts maintained on behalf of NNN in demand deposits at commercial banks and money market funds may exceed federally insured levels; however, NNN has not experienced any losses in such accounts.

Valuation of Receivables – NNN estimates the collectability of its accounts receivable related to rents, expense reimbursements and other revenues. NNN analyzes accounts receivable and historical bad debt levels, customer credit-worthiness and current economic trends when evaluating the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. In addition, tenants in bankruptcy are analyzed and estimates are made in connection with the expected recovery of pre-petition and post-petition claims.

Other Comprehensive Income – The components for the change in other comprehensive income during the six months ended June 30, 2010, consisted of the following (dollars in thousands):


Balance at beginning of period	$	511
Amortization of interest rate hedges		(82	)
Unrealized gain – commercial mortgage residual interests		127
Stock value adjustment		(13	)
Noncontrolling interests		26

Balance at end of period	$	569

NNN’s total comprehensive income (dollars in thousands):


	Quarter Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2010			2009			2010		2009

Net earnings	$	21,206		$	18,090		$	37,571	$	44,893
Other comprehensive income (loss)		(18	)		2,141			32		3,217

Comprehensive income including noncontrolling interests		21,188			20,231			37,603		48,110
Comprehensive (income) loss attributable to noncontrolling interests		(73	)		(596	)		26		(765	)

Comprehensive income attributable to NNN	$	21,115		$	19,635		$	37,629	$	47,345

Earnings Per Share – Earnings per share have been computed pursuant to the FASB guidance included in Earnings Per Share. Effective January 1, 2009, the guidance requires classification of the Company’s unvested restricted share units which contain rights to receive nonforfeitable dividends, as participating securities requiring the two-class method of computing earnings per share. Under the two-class method, earnings per common share are computed by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common stockholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both common shares and participating securities based on the weighted average shares outstanding during the period.

The following table is a reconciliation of the numerator and denominator used in the computation of basic and diluted earnings per common share using the two-class method (dollars in thousands):


	Quarter Ended June 30,						Six Months Ended June 30,
	2010			2009			2010			2009

Basic and Diluted Earnings:
Net earnings attributable to NNN	$	21,206		$	18,090		$	37,571		$	44,893
Less: Series C preferred stock dividends		(1,696	)		(1,696	)		(3,392	)		(3,392	)

Net earnings available to NNN’s common stockholders		19,510			16,394			34,179			41,501
Less: Earnings attributable to unvested restricted shares		(92	)		(156	)		(144	)		(278	)

Net earnings used in basic earnings per share		19,418			16,238			34,035			41,223
Reallocated undistributed income		-			-			-			-

Net earnings used in diluted earnings per share	$	19,418		$	16,238		$	34,035		$	41,223


Basic and Diluted Weighted Average Shares Outstanding:
Weighted average number of shares outstanding		83,344,447			79,831,150			83,149,908			79,278,694
Less: unvested restricted stock		(649,823	)		(668,010	)		(559,991	)		(611,439	)

Weighted average number of shares outstanding used in basic earnings per share		82,694,624			79,163,140			82,589,917			78,667,255
Effects of dilutive securities:
Common stock options		3,866			8,773			4,151			7,578
Directors’ deferred fee plan		126,933			93,461			123,907			88,064

Weighted average number of shares outstanding used in diluted earnings per share		82,825,423			79,265,374			82,717,975			78,762,897

The potential dilutive shares related to convertible notes payable were not included in computing earnings per common share because their effects would be antidilutive.

Fair Value Measurement – NNN’s estimates of fair value of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities are based on the framework established in the fair value accounting guidance. The framework specifies a hierarchy of valuation inputs which was established to increase consistency, clarity and comparability in fair value measurements and related disclosures. The guidance describes a fair value hierarchy based upon three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value, two of which are considered observable and one that is considered unobservable. The following describes the three levels:

—

Level 1 – Valuation is based upon quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

—

Level 2 – Valuation is based upon inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

—

Level 3 – Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use at least one significant assumption not observable in the market. These unobservable assumptions reflect estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Valuation techniques include option pricing models, discounted cash flow models and similar techniques.

Business Combination Retrospective Adjustment – In connection with the default in June 2009 by one of NNN’s tenants under a note receivable and certain lease agreements with NNN, NNN acquired the operations of the tenant’s 12 auto service businesses which were operated on the respective Investment Properties. A preliminary fair value of the assets acquired was recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2009. As of December 31, 2009, a final valuation of the assets was completed and recorded by NNN. This adjustment was applied retrospectively and resulted in the following non-cash adjustment to the amounts and per share amounts as originally reported in NNN’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2009, and as restated or adjusted in this Form 10-Q.

New Accounting Pronouncements – In June 2009, FASB issued guidance on the accounting for the transfers of financial assets. The new guidance eliminates the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity and changes the requirements for derecognizing financial assets. The new guidance is effective on a prospective basis for annual periods beginning after November 15, 2009, and interim and annual periods thereafter. The adoption of the standard did not have a significant impact on NNN’s financial position or results of operations.

In June 2009, FASB issued revised guidance on the accounting for variable interest entities. The revised guidance reflects the elimination of the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity. The guidance also replaces the quantitative-based risks and rewards calculation of the previous guidance for determining which company, if any, has a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity with an approach that is primarily qualitative. The new guidance requires ongoing assessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of the variable interest entity as well as additional disclosures. The guidance is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. The adoption of the standard did not have a significant impact on NNN’s financial position or results of operations.

In August 2009, FASB issued new guidance for the accounting for the fair value measurement of liabilities. The new guidance provides clarification that in circumstances in which a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability is not available, a reporting entity is required to measure fair value using one or more of the approved techniques. The new guidance clarifies that

both a quoted price in an active market for the identical liability at the measurement date and the quoted price for the identical liability when traded as an asset in an active market when no adjustments to the quoted price of the asset are required are Level 1 fair value measurements. The guidance is effective for the first reporting period (including interim periods) beginning after issuance. The adoption of the standard did not have a significant impact on NNN’s financial position or results of operations.

In January 2010, the FASB issued Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. This update requires new disclosures for transfer in and out of Level 1 and 2, as well as, disclosure about the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value for Level 1 and 2. In addition, activity in Level 3 should present separately information about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis (rather than as one net number). A reporting entity should provide fair value measurements disclosures for each class of assets and liabilities. The new disclosures and clarifications of existing disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the roll forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within those fiscal years. NNN is currently evaluating the provisions to determine the potential impact, if any, the adoption will have on its financial position and results of operations.

In February 2010, the FASB issued Subsequent Events, Amendments to Certain Recognition and Disclosure Requirements. An entity that is a filer with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) is required to evaluate subsequent events through the date that the financial statements are issued. An entity that is an SEC filer is not required to disclose the date through which subsequent events have been evaluated. This change alleviates potential conflicts between Subtopic 855-10 and the SEC requirements. The scope of the reissuance disclosure requirements is refined to include revised financial statements only. Revised financial statements include financial statements revised either as a result of correction of an error or retrospective application of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. All of the amendments in this are effective upon issuance of the final update, except for the use of the issued date for conduit debt obligors. That amendment is effective for interim or annual periods ending after June 15, 2010. The adoption of the standard did not have an impact on NNN’s financial position or results of operations.

Use of Estimates – Management of NNN has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Significant estimates include provision for impairment and allowances for certain assets, accruals, useful lives of assets and capitalization of costs. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Reclassification – Certain items in the prior year’s condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2010 presentation.

Note 2 – Real Estate - Investment Portfolio:

Leases – As of June 30, 2010, 985 of the Investment Property leases have been classified as operating leases, and 23 leases have been classified as direct financing leases. Seven properties account for the building portions of the property as direct financing leases while the land portions are accounted for as operating leases. Substantially all leases have initial terms of 10 to 20 years (expiring between 2010 and 2029) and provide for minimum rentals. In addition, 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 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. As of June 30, 2010, the weighted average remaining lease term was approximately 12 years. Generally, the leases of the Investment Properties provide the tenant with one or more multi-year renewal options subject to generally the same terms and conditions as in the initial lease term.

Investment Portfolio – Accounted for Using the Operating Method – Real estate subject to operating leases consisted of the following (dollars in thousands):


	June 30, 2010			December 31, 2009

Note 5 – Commercial Mortgage Residual Interests:

NNN owns a 79.93 percent equity interest in Orange Avenue Mortgage Investments, Inc. (“OAMI”). OAMI holds the commercial mortgage residual interests (“Residuals”) from seven securitizations. Each of the Residuals is recorded at fair value based upon an independent valuation. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity and other than temporary losses as a result of a change in the timing or amount of estimated cash flows are recorded as an other than temporary valuation impairment.

Due to changes in loan performance relating to the Residuals, the independent valuation adjusted certain of the valuation assumptions. The following table summarizes the key assumptions used in determining the value of the Residuals as of:


	June 30, 2010	December 31, 2009

Discount rate	25%	25%
Average life equivalent CPR speeds range	2.6% - 23.2 % CPR	14.5% to 20.7% CPR
Foreclosures:

Note 6 – Stockholders’ Equity:

Preferred Stock – NNN declared and paid dividends to its Series C preferred stockholders of $3,392,000 or $0.9218 per share during each of the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Series C preferred stock has no maturity date and will remain outstanding unless redeemed.

Common Stock – During the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, NNN declared and paid dividends to its common stockholders of $62,174,000 and $59,220,000, respectively, or $0.75 per share of common stock.

In July 2010, NNN declared a dividend of $0.38 per share, which is payable in August 2010 to its common stockholders of record as of July 30, 2010.

In June 2009, NNN filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for its Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (“DRIP”) which permits the issuance by NNN of 16,000,000 shares of common stock. The following outlines the common stock issuances pursuant to the DRIP for each of the six months ended June 30 (dollars in thousands):

Note 7 – Income Taxes:

NNN elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”), commencing with its taxable year ended December 31, 1984. To qualify as a REIT, NNN must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that it currently distribute at least 90% of its REIT taxable income to its stockholders. NNN intends to adhere to these requirements and maintain its REIT status. As a REIT, NNN generally will not be subject to corporate level federal income tax on taxable income that it distributes currently to its stockholders. NNN may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and to federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income, if any. The provision for federal income taxes in NNN’s consolidated financial statements relates to its TRS operations and any potential taxable built-in gain. NNN did not have significant tax provisions or deferred income tax items during the periods reported hereunder.

In June 2006, the FASB issued guidance, which clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in a company’s financial statements in accordance with FASB guidance included in Income Taxes. The interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. The interpretation also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition.

NNN is subject to the provisions of the FASB guidance as of January 1, 2007, and has analyzed its various federal and state filing positions. NNN believes that its income tax filing positions and deductions are well documented and supported. Additionally, NNN believes that its accruals for tax liabilities are adequate. Therefore, no reserves for uncertain income tax positions have been recorded pursuant to the FASB guidance. In addition, NNN did not record a cumulative effect adjustment related to the adoption of the FASB guidance.

NNN has had no increases or decreases in unrecognized tax benefits for current or prior years since the date of adoption. Further, no interest or penalties have been included since no reserves were recorded and no significant increases or decreases are expected to occur within the next 12 months. When applicable, such interest and penalties will be recorded in non-operating expenses. The periods that remain open under federal statute are 2006 through 2010. NNN also files in many states with varying open years under statute.

Note 8 – Earnings from Discontinued Operations:

Real Estate – Investment Portfolio – NNN classified the revenues and expenses related to (i) all Investment Properties that were sold and leasehold interests which expired, and (ii) all Investment Properties that were held for sale as of June 30, 2010, as discontinued operations. The following is a summary of the earnings from discontinued operations from the Investment Portfolio (dollars in thousands):

Note 9 – Derivatives:

FASB ASC 815 provides the disclosure requirements for derivatives and hedging activities with the intent to provide users of financial statements with an enhanced understanding of: (a) how and why an entity uses derivative instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under FASB ASC 815, and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. FASB ASC 815 requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about the fair value of and gains and losses on derivative instruments, and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative instruments.

In accordance with the guidance on derivatives and hedging, NNN records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative and the resulting designation. Derivatives used to hedge the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives used to

hedge the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Derivatives used to hedge the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation are considered net investment hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of its risk, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting under FASB ASC 815.

NNN’s objective in using derivatives is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements or other identified risks. To accomplish this objective, NNN primarily uses treasury locks and forward swaps (“forward hedges”) and interest rate swaps as part of its cash flow hedging strategy. Forward hedges designated as cash flow hedges lock in the yield/ price of a treasury security or the fixed rate of the underlying interest rate swap. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges hedging the variable cash flows associated with floating rate debt involve the receipt of variable rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying principal amount. To date, such derivatives have been used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with floating rate debt and forecasted interest payments of a forecasted issuance of debt.

For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is initially reported in other comprehensive income (outside of earnings) and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings, and the ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recognized directly in earnings.

NNN discontinues hedge accounting prospectively when it is determined that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the cash flows of the hedged item, the derivative expires or is sold, terminated, or exercised, the derivative is re-designated as a hedging instrument or management determines that designation of the derivative as a hedging instrument is no longer appropriate.

When hedge accounting is discontinued, NNN continues to carry the derivative at its fair value on the balance sheet, and recognizes any changes in its fair value in earnings or may choose to cash settle the derivative at that time.

In February 2008, NNN terminated its interest rate hedge with a notional amount of $100,000,000 that was hedging the risk of changes in forecasted interest payments on a forecasted issuance of long-term debt. The fair value of the interest rate hedge when terminated was a liability of $804,000, which NNN recorded as a loss on interest rate hedge.

In September 2007, NNN terminated two interest rate hedges with a combined notional amount of $100,000,000 that were hedging the risk of changes in forecasted interest payments on a forecasted issuance of long-term debt. The fair value of the interest rate hedges when terminated was a liability of $3,260,000, of which $3,228,000 was deferred in other comprehensive income.

In June 2004, NNN terminated its forward-starting interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $94,000,000 that was hedging the risk of changes in forecasted interest payments on a forecasted issuance of long-term debt. The fair value of the interest rate swaps when terminated was an asset of $4,148,000, which was deferred in other comprehensive income.

As of June 30, 2010, $631,000 remains in other comprehensive income related to the fair value of the interest rate hedges. During the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, NNN reclassed

$82,000, and $79,000, respectively, out of other comprehensive income as a reduction to interest expense. Over the next 12 months, NNN estimates that an additional $158,000 will be reclassified in interest expense. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on NNN’s long-term debt.

NNN does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes or currently have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges. NNN had no derivative financial instruments outstanding at June 30, 2010.

Note 11 – Fair Value Measurements:

NNN currently values its Residuals based upon an independent valuation which provides a discounted cash flow analysis based upon prepayment speeds, expected loan losses and yield curves. These valuation inputs are generally considered unobservable; therefore, the Residuals are considered Level 3 financial assets. The table below presents a reconciliation of the Residuals for the six months ended June 30, 2010 (dollars in thousands):


Balance at beginning of period	$	20,153
Total gains (losses) – realized/unrealized:
Included in earnings		(3,848	)
Included in other comprehensive income		127
Interest income on Residuals		1,907
Cash received from Residuals		(3,191	)
Purchases, sales, issuances and settlements, net		-
Transfers in and/or out of Level 3		-

Balance at end of period	$	15,148


Losses included in earnings attributable to a change in unrealized losses relating to assets still held at the end of period	$	(252	)

Note 12 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments:

NNN believes the carrying value of its revolving credit facility approximates fair value based upon its nature, terms and variable interest rate. NNN believes that the carrying value of its cash and cash equivalents, mortgages, notes and other receivables, mortgages payable and other liabilities at June 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, approximate fair value based upon current market prices for similar issuances. At June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the fair value of NNN’s notes payable and convertible notes payable, collectively, were $1,014,460,000 and $987,275,000, respectively, based upon quoted market price.

Note 13 – Subsequent Events:

NNN reviewed all subsequent events and transactions that have occurred after June 30, 2010, the date of the condensed consolidated balance sheet, through August 5, 2010, the date of filing this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There were no subsequent events or transactions.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of National Retail Properties, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2009. The term “NNN” or the “Company” refers to National Retail Properties, Inc. and all of its consolidated subsidiaries. NNN has elected to treat certain subsidiaries as taxable real estate investment trust subsidiaries. These subsidiaries and their majority owned and controlled subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the “TRS.”

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, including those risks included in Item 1A. Risk Factors of NNN’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009, which may cause NNN’s actual future results to differ materially from expected results. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. NNN undertakes no obligation to update or revise such forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Overview

NNN is a fully integrated real estate investment trust (“REIT”). NNN’s operations are divided into two primary business segments: (i) investment assets, including real estate assets, mortgages and notes receivable on the condensed consolidated balance sheets, and commercial mortgage residual interests (collectively, “Investment Assets”), and (ii) inventory real estate assets (“Inventory Assets”). NNN acquires, owns, invests in, and develops properties that are leased primarily to retail tenants under long-term net leases and primarily held for investment (“Investment Properties” or “Investment Portfolio”). The Inventory Assets typically represent direct and indirect investment interests in real estate assets acquired or developed primarily for the purpose of selling the real estate (“Inventory Properties” or “Inventory Portfolio”). Inventory Assets typically consist of two types of properties, property for development (“Development Properties” or “Development Portfolio”) and improved properties (“Exchange Properties” or “Exchange Portfolio”).

As of June 30, 2010, NNN owned 1,014 Investment Properties (including 12 properties with retail operations that NNN operates), with an aggregate gross leasable area of approximately 11,399,000 square feet, located in 43 states. Approximately 97 percent of total properties in NNN’s Investment Portfolio was leased or operated by NNN as of June 30, 2010. In addition, as of June 30, 2010, NNN had $42,886,000 in mortgages, notes and interest receivable and $15,148,000 of commercial mortgage residual interests. As of June 30, 2010, NNN owned 17 Inventory Properties. NNN transferred 11 properties from the Inventory Portfolio to the Investment Portfolio in December 2009.

NNN’s management team focuses on certain key indicators to evaluate the financial condition and operating performance of NNN. The key indicators for NNN include items such as: the composition of NNN’s Investment Portfolio and structured finance investments (such as tenant, geographic and line of trade diversification), the occupancy rate of NNN’s Investment Portfolio, certain financial performance ratios and profitability measures, and industry trends and performance compared to that of NNN.

NNN continues to maintain its diversification by tenant, geography and line of trade. NNN’s highest lines of trade concentrations are the convenience store and restaurant sectors. These sectors represent a large part of the freestanding retail property marketplace and NNN’s management believes these sectors present attractive investment opportunities. NNN’s Investment Portfolio is geographically concentrated in the south and southeast United States, which are regions of historically above-average population growth. Given these concentrations, any financial hardship within these sectors or geographic locations, respectively, could have a material adverse effect on the financial condition and operating performance of NNN.

Revenue from Continuing Operations Analysis

General. During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010, NNN’s revenue decreased primarily due to a decrease in rental income and real estate expense reimbursements from tenants.

The following table summarizes NNN’s revenues from continuing operations (dollars in thousands):


	Quarter Ended June 30,						Percent Increase	Six Months Ended June 30,						Percent Increase
	2010		2009		2010	2009	(Decrease)	2010		2009		2010	2009	(Decrease)
					Percent of Total							Percent of Total

⁽¹⁾	Includes rental income from operating leases, earned income from direct financing leases and percentage rent from continuing operations (“Rental Income”).

Rental Income. Rental Income decreased for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same periods in 2009, but remained relatively stable as a percent of the total revenues from continuing operations. The decrease is primarily due to nonrecurring rent settlement fees of $2,080,000 and $4,865,000 recorded during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively. The decrease in Rental Income was partially offset by the Rental Income generated from the dollars invested in property acquisitions and the completion of construction commitments since June 30, 2009.

Real Estate Expense Reimbursements from Tenants. Real estate expense reimbursements from tenants decreased for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same periods in 2009 but remained fairly consistent as a percentage of total revenues from continuing operations. The decrease is primarily attributable to the decrease in reimbursements from certain properties which became vacant.

Interest and Other Income from Real Estate Transactions. Interest and other income from real estate transactions decreased for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2009, primarily due to the decrease in the average outstanding balance in structured finance investments and mortgages receivable.

Interest Income on Commercial Mortgage Residual Interests. Interest income on commercial mortgage residual interests (“Residuals”) decreased for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same periods last year. The decrease in interest income on Residuals is primarily the result of changes in loan performance and declining loan balances from prepayments and scheduled loan amortization.

Analysis of Expenses from Continuing Operations

General. Operating expenses from continuing operations remained consistent for the quarter ended June 30, 2010, but increased for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The increase was primarily due to the commercial mortgage residual interests valuation adjustment. The following table summarizes NNN’s expenses from continuing operations for the quarters ended June 30 (dollars in thousands):


							Percent Increase (Decrease)	Percentage of Total		Percent of Revenues from Continuing Operations

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same periods in 2009. The increase is primarily the result of the depreciation attributable to real estate investments subsequent to June 30, 2009, and an increase in amortization of loan costs related to the new Credit Facility entered into in November 2009.

Impairment – Real Estate. Impairments are measured as the amount by which the current book value of the asset exceeds the estimated fair value of the asset. As a result of the Company’s review of long-lived assets for impairments, NNN recorded $1,064,000 of impairments during the six months ended June 30, 2009, all of which was recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2009. No such costs were incurred during the same period in 2010.

Impairment – Commercial Mortgage Residual Interests Valuation Adjustment. In connection with the independent valuations of the Residuals’ fair value during the six months ended June 30, 2010, NNN recorded an other than temporary valuation adjustment of $3,848,000, of which $165,000 was recorded during the quarter ended June 30, 2010, as a reduction of earnings from operations. The increase in the valuation adjustment was attributable to the changes in the valuation assumptions due to the changes in loan performance relating to the Residuals.

Restructuring Costs. During the quarter ended March 31, 2009, NNN recorded restructuring costs of $731,000 in connection with a workforce reduction. No such costs were incurred during the same period in 2010.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2009. The following represents the primary changes in debt that have impacted interest expense:

(i)

repurchase of $2,500,000 and $8,500,000 of convertible notes payable due June 2028 with an effective interest rate of 7.192% in May 2009 and February 2009, respectively,

(ii)

repurchase of $3,800,000 and $5,000,000 of convertible notes payable due September 2026 with an effective interest rate of 5.840% in March 2009 and January 2009, respectively,

(iii)

the decrease of $19,898,000 in the weighted average debt outstanding on the Credit Facility for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period in 2009,

(iv)

the decrease of $732,000 in capitalized interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2010, as compared to the same period in 2009, and

(v)

the increase of $503,000 in amortization of loan commitment fees related to the new Credit Facility entered into in November 2009.

Earnings from Discontinued Operations

Earnings

NNN classified as discontinued operations the revenues and expenses related to its Investment Properties that were sold, its leasehold interests that expired or were terminated and any Investment Properties that were held for sale at June 30, 2010. NNN also classified as discontinued operations the revenues and expenses of its Inventory Properties that generated rental revenues. NNN records discontinued operations by NNN’s identified segments: (i) Investment Assets, and (ii) Inventory Assets. The following table summarizes the earnings from discontinued operations for the quarters ended June 30 (dollars in thousands):


	2010					2009
	# of Sold Properties	Gain		Earnings		# of Sold Properties	Gain		Earnings

Investment Assets	6	$	355	$	530	3	$	600	$	2,473

	13	$	634	$	874	8	$	2,190	$	4,705

NNN periodically sells Investment Properties and may reinvest the sale proceeds to purchase additional properties. NNN evaluates its ability to pay dividends to stockholders by considering the combined effect of income from continuing and discontinued operations.

Liquidity

General. NNN’s demand for funds has been and will continue to be primarily for (i) payment of operating expenses and cash dividends; (ii) property acquisitions and development; (iii) origination of mortgages and notes receivable; (iv) capital expenditures; (v) payment of principal and interest on its outstanding indebtedness; and (vi) other investments.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. The table below summarizes NNN’s cash flows for the six months ended June 30 (dollars in thousands):


	2010			2009

Cash and cash equivalents:
Provided by operating activities	$	110,323		$	77,726
Used in investing activities		(18,599	)		(17,188	)
Used in financing activities		(55,117	)		(61,591	)

Increase (decrease)		36,607			(1,053	)
Net cash at beginning of period		15,225			2,626

Net cash at end of period	$	51,832		$	1,573

Cash provided by operating activities represents cash received primarily from rental income from tenants, proceeds from the disposition of Inventory Properties and interest income less cash used for general and administrative expenses, interest expense and the acquisition of Inventory Properties. NNN’s cash flow from operating activities, net of the cash used in and provided by the acquisition and disposition of its Inventory Properties, has been sufficient to pay the dividends in each of the periods presented. NNN generally uses proceeds from its Credit Facility to fund the acquisition of its Inventory Properties. The change in cash provided by operations for the quarters ended June 30, 2010 and 2009 is primarily the result of changes in revenues and expenses as discussed in “Results of Operations.”

Changes in cash for investing activities are primarily attributable to the acquisitions and dispositions of Investment Properties.

NNN’s financing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2010, include the following significant transactions:

—

$62,174,000 in dividends paid to common stockholders,

—

$3,392,000 in dividends paid to holders of the depositary shares of NNN’s Series C preferred stock,

—

$11,770,000 in net proceeds from the issuance of 561,107 shares of common stock in connection with the Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan (“DRIP”), and

—

Assumed two mortgages for $5,432,000 in connection with property acquisitions which bear a weighted average interest rate of 8.03% and mature in October 2010.

Contractual Obligations and Commercial Commitments. As of June 30, 2010, NNN has agreed to fund construction commitments in connection with the development of additional properties as outlined in the table below (dollars in thousands):


	# of Properties	Total Commitment ⁽¹⁾		Amount Funded		Remaining Commitment

Investment Portfolio	14	$	43,739	$	33,110	$	10,629

⁽¹⁾Including construction and land costs.

As of June 30, 2010, NNN had outstanding letters of credit totaling $647,000 under its Credit Facility.

As of June 30, 2010, NNN did not have any other material contractual cash obligations, such as purchase obligations, financing lease obligations or other long-term liabilities other than those reflected in the table. In addition to items reflected in the table, NNN has issued preferred stock with cumulative preferential cash distributions, as described below under “Dividends.”

Management anticipates satisfying these obligations with a combination of NNN’s cash provided from operations, current capital resources on hand, its Credit Facility, debt or equity financings and asset dispositions.

Generally the Investment Properties are leased under long term net leases. Therefore, management anticipates that capital demands to meet obligations with respect to these Investment Properties will be modest for the foreseeable future and can be met with funds from operations and working capital. Certain of NNN’s Investment Properties are subject to leases under which NNN retains responsibility for certain costs and expenses associated with the Investment Property. Management anticipates the costs associated with NNN’s vacant Investment Properties or those Investment Properties that become vacant will also be met with funds from operations and working capital. NNN may be required to borrow under its Credit Facility or use other sources of capital in the event of unforeseen significant capital expenditures.

As of June 30, 2010, NNN owned 27 vacant, un-leased Investment Properties which accounted for approximately three percent of total Investment Properties held in NNN’s Investment Portfolio. Vacant properties in the Investment Portfolio could have a material adverse effect on the liquidity and results of operations if NNN is unable to re-lease such properties in a timely manner.

On April 20, 2009, one of NNN’s tenants, Titlemax Holdings, LLC and its affiliated companies (“Titlemax”), which leased 30 Investment Properties from NNN, filed a petition of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In January 2010 Titlemax assumed all of its leases with NNN. In April 2010, Titlemax’s plan of reorganization was approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court and Titlemax exited bankruptcy. Titlemax’s Chapter 11 filing did not have a material adverse effect on NNN’s operations or financial position.

In June 2010, one of NNN’s tenants, Majestic Liquor Stores, Inc. (“Majestic”), which leased 13 Investment Properties from NNN, filed a petition of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the US Bankruptcy Code. In addition, in June 2010, the principals of Majestic, (the “Majestic Principals”), which are the borrowers on a loan from NNN secured by one Majestic property, filed a petition of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the US Bankruptcy Code. In June 2010, Majestic elected to reject the leases of four properties owned by NNN and on the one property securing the loan to the Majestic Principals. NNN does not believe the bankruptcy filing of Majestic or the Majestic Principals will have a material adverse affect on its operations or financial position.

Dividends. NNN has made an election to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and related regulations and intends to continue to operate so as to remain qualified as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. NNN generally will not be subject to federal income tax on income that it distributes to its stockholders, provided that it distributes 100 percent of its REIT taxable income and meets certain other requirements for qualifying as a REIT. If NNN fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, it will be subject to federal income tax on its taxable income at regular corporate rates and will not be permitted to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes for four years following the year during which qualification is lost. Such an event could materially affect NNN’s income and its ability to pay dividends. NNN believes it has been structured as, and its past and present operations qualify NNN as, a REIT.

One of NNN’s primary objectives, consistent with its policy of retaining sufficient cash for reserves and working capital purposes and maintaining its status as a REIT, is to distribute a substantial portion of its funds available from operations to its stockholders in the form of dividends. During the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, NNN declared and paid dividends to its common stockholders of $62,174,000 and $59,220,000, respectively, or $0.75 per share, respectively, of common stock.

In July 2010, NNN declared a dividend of $0.38 per share which is payable in August 2010 to its common stockholders of record as of July 30, 2010.

NNN declared and paid dividends to its Series C preferred stockholders of $3,392,000 or $0.9218 per share during each of the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively. The Series C preferred stock has no maturity date and will remain outstanding unless redeemed.

Capital Resources

Generally, cash needs for property acquisitions, mortgages and notes receivable investments, debt payments, dividends, capital expenditures, development and other investments have been funded by equity and debt offerings, bank borrowings, the sale of properties and, to a lesser extent, by internally generated funds. Cash needs for other items have been met from operations. If available, future sources of capital include proceeds from the public or private offering of NNN’s debt or equity securities, secured or unsecured borrowings from banks or other lenders, proceeds from the sale of properties, as well as undistributed funds from operations.

Debt

The following is a summary of NNN’s total outstanding debt (dollars in thousands):


	June 30, 2010		Percentage of Total	December 31, 2009		Percentage of Total

Mortgages payable	$	30,189	3.0%	$	25,290	2.6%
Notes payable – convertible		346,406	34.8%		343,380	34.8%

Indebtedness. NNN expects to use indebtedness primarily for property acquisitions and development of retail properties, either directly or through investment interests, and mortgages and notes receivable.

Line of Credit Payable. NNN’s $400,000,000 Credit Facility matures November 2012, with an option to extend maturity to November 2013. The Credit Facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 280 basis points with a 1.0% LIBOR floor; however, such interest rate may change pursuant to a tiered interest rate structure based on NNN’s debt rating. The Credit Facility also includes an accordion feature for NNN to increase the facility size up to $500,000,000.

As of June 30, 2010, no balance was outstanding, and $400,000,000 was available for future borrowings under the Credit Facility, excluding undrawn letters of credit totaling $647,000.

In March 2010, NNN acquired two properties subject to mortgages securing a loan for $5,432,000. The loans bear interest at a weighted average rate of 8.03% per annum with monthly principal and interest payments of $44,000 and the balance due in October 2010.

Each series of convertible notes represents senior, unsecured obligations of NNN and are subordinated to all secured indebtedness of the Company. Each note is redeemable at the option of NNN, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon through but not including the redemption date, and (ii) the make whole amount, if any, as defined in the applicable supplemental indenture relating to the notes.

Debt and Equity Securities

NNN has used, and expects to use in the future, issuances of debt and equity securities primarily to pay down its outstanding indebtedness and to finance investment acquisitions.

Securities Offering. In February 2009, NNN filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission which permits the issuance by NNN of an indeterminate amount of debt and equity securities.

Dividend Reinvestment and Stock Purchase Plan. In June 2009, NNN filed a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the DRIP which permits the issuance by NNN of 16,000,000 shares of common stock. NNN’s DRIP provides an economical and convenient way for current stockholders and other interested new investors to invest in NNN’s common stock.

Due to changes in loan performance relating to the Residuals, the independent valuation adjusted certain of the valuation assumptions.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

NNN is exposed to interest rate risk primarily as a result of its variable rate Credit Facility and its fixed rate debt which is used to finance NNN’s development and acquisition activities, as well as for general corporate purposes. NNN’s interest rate risk management objective is to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to lower its overall borrowing costs. To achieve its objectives, NNN borrows at both fixed and variable rates on its long-term debt. As of June 30, 2010, NNN had no outstanding derivatives.

The information in the table below summarizes NNN’s market risks associated with its debt obligations outstanding as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The table presents principal payments and related interest rates by year for debt obligations outstanding as of June 30, 2010. NNN has a variable interest rate risk on its Credit Facility which had no outstanding balance as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009. The table incorporates only those debt obligations that existed as of June 30, 2010; it does not consider those debt obligations or positions which could arise after this date. Moreover, because firm commitments are not presented in the table below, the information presented therein has limited predictive value. As a result, NNN’s ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during the period, NNN’s hedging strategies at that time and interest rates. If interest rates on NNN’s variable rate debt increased by one percent, NNN’s interest expense would not have increased for the six months ended June 30, 2010, due to no outstanding balance on the credit facility.

⁽¹⁾ Includes NNN’s notes payable and convertible notes payable, each net of unamortized note discount. NNN uses Bloomberg to determine the fair value.

NNN is also exposed to market risks related to the Residuals. Factors that may impact the market value of the Residuals include delinquencies, loan losses, prepayment speeds and interest rates. The Residuals, which are reported at market value based upon an independent valuation, had a carrying value of $15,148,000 and $20,153,000 as of June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. Unrealized gains and losses are reported as other comprehensive income in stockholders’ equity. Losses are considered other than temporary and reported as a valuation impairment in earnings from operations if and when there has been a change in the timing or amount of estimated cash flows that leads to a loss in value.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of NNN’s management, including NNN’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness as of June 30, 2010, of the design and operation of NNN’s disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act.
