Item 8.01 Other Events.
Following the close of the commercial paper market on July 12, 2022, Realty Income Corporation (the “Company”) amended its U.S. dollar-denominated unsecured commercial paper program (the “Program”) to increase the maximum aggregate amount outstanding of unsecured commercial paper notes that may be issued from time to time from $1.0 billion to $1.5 billion. Consistent with the terms of the Program, the notes will be sold under customary terms in the United States commercial paper note market and will rank pari passu with all of the Company’s other unsecured senior indebtedness, including the Company’s outstanding senior notes and borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility, the Company’s term loan and the Company’s outstanding senior unsecured notes. Note proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes. The Company expects to use its $4.25 billion revolving credit facility as a liquidity backstop for the repayment of the notes issued under the Program.
The notes to be offered under the Program have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the notes under the Program.
