                   PURCHASE AGREEMENT AND ESCROW INSTRUCTIONS

             This Purchase Agreement and Escrow Instructions (this "Agreement"),
dated December 13, 2001 for reference purposes only, is made by and between
FRIENDLY ICE CREAM CORPORATION, a Massachusetts corporation ("Seller"), and
REALTY INCOME CORPORATION, a Maryland corporation ("Buyer"), and is made with
reference to the recitals set forth below, and constitutes (i) a contract of
purchase and sale between the parties and (ii) escrow instructions to FIRST
AMERICAN TITLE INSURANCE COMPANY (the "Escrow Agent").

                                    RECITALS

         A. PROPERTIES. Seller, or one or more wholly-owned subsidiaries
controlled by Seller, owns forty-five (45) certain real properties, together
with all improvements located thereon and appurtenances thereunto belonging,
which real properties are identified on the "Property List," attached hereto and
incorporated herein as Exhibit "A." The terms "Property" or "Properties" as used
in this Agreement shall mean certain or all (as the context may require) of the
real properties identified on the Property List.

         B. PURCHASE AND SALE. Seller desires to sell all of Seller's right,
title and interest in and to the Properties upon the terms and conditions set
forth below. Buyer desires to purchase all of Seller's right, title, and
interest in and to the Properties upon the terms and conditions set forth below.

         C. LEASEHOLD INTEREST. Concurrently with the Closing (as defined in
Section 8), Buyer, as landlord, shall lease the Properties to Seller, as tenant,
pursuant to a certain Land and Building Lease Agreement (the "Leases"),
substantially in the form of Exhibit "B," attached hereto and incorporated
hereby.

                               1. PURCHASE PRICE

         In consideration of the covenants contained in this Agreement, subject
to the terms of this Agreement, Seller shall sell and Buyer shall purchase the
Properties for a total purchase price of THIRTY-FOUR MILLION FOUR HUNDRED
EIGHTY-TWO THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED SEVENTY-EIGHT DOLLARS ($34,482,678) (the
"Purchase Price") which shall be delivered by Buyer to Escrow Agent on or before
the Closing in Cash (defined as (i) United States currency, (ii) cashier's or
certified check(s) currently dated, payable to Escrow Agent, and honored upon
presentation for payment, (iii) an amount credited by wire transfer into Escrow
Agent's bank account, or (iv) if monies are deposited with Escrow Agent within
twenty (20) days prior to the Closing, funds in such form as Escrow Agent in its
sole discretion requires). The Purchase Price allocated by Buyer in its
reasonable discretion to each of the Properties (the "Individual Purchase
Price") is listed on Exhibit "A." Upon Closing, the Escrow Agent will wire
transfer the Purchase Price to Seller or at Seller's direction.


                                                              PAGE 1 of 19 PAGES

                              2. OPENING OF ESCROW

         Within five (5) business days following the execution of this
Agreement, Buyer and Seller shall open an escrow (the "Escrow") with Escrow
Agent for the Properties and shall deposit with Escrow Agent fully executed
counterparts of this Agreement for use as escrow instructions. Buyer and Seller
shall execute Escrow Agent's usual form of supplemental escrow instructions for
transactions of this type; provided, however, that such escrow instructions
shall be for the purpose of implementing this Agreement, shall incorporate this
Agreement by reference, and shall specifically provide that no provisions shall
have the effect of modifying this Agreement unless it is so expressly stated and
initialed on behalf of Buyer and Seller.

                             3. TITLE TO PROPERTIES

         At Closing, Seller shall convey to Buyer fee simple title to the
Properties by execution and delivery at the Closing of deeds for the Properties
in form as approved by Seller's title insurance company, which shall be of equal
character and covenants as the deeds received by Seller (the "Deeds"). At the
Closing Buyer shall receive from FIRST AMERICAN TITLE INSURANCE COMPANY ("Title
Company") an ALTA Owner's Extended Policy of Title Insurance (the "Title
Policy") with liability in the full amount of the Individual Purchase Price
insuring fee simple title to each of the Properties in Buyer, subject only to
exceptions which do not materially, adversely affect the use of the Properties
as a restaurant, together with such endorsements as may be reasonably requested
by Buyer. Indemnification of Title Company to induce it to insure any otherwise
non-permitted exception to title shall only be allowed with the prior written
consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, after full
disclosure to Buyer of the nature and substance of such exception and indemnity.
The Title Policy for each of the Properties shall provide survey coverage and
shall provide full coverage against mechanics' and materialmen's liens arising
out of the construction, repair, or alteration of any of improvements located on
such of the Properties.

         If Seller is unable to convey title to any of the Properties in
accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, Seller shall have the option
to (a) substitute the affected Property as provided in Section 19.17 below, or
(b) use reasonable efforts to remove any material defects in title; and the time
for performance and the Closing Date with respect to said Property shall be
extended for a period not to exceed thirty (30) days (the "Extended Closing
Date"). If, upon the expiration of the Extended Closing Date, Seller shall have
failed to provide a suitable substitute property or remove the material defects
in title for the affected Property, any payments held in escrow with respect to
the same shall be refunded to Buyer and all other obligations of Buyer and
Seller with respect to said Property or Properties shall cease under this
Agreement and shall be void without recourse by either party to the other.

         Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Buyer shall
have the continuing option, at the original time for performance, or prior to
the expiration of the Extended Closing Date, to accept such title as Seller can
deliver and to waive any condition or provision of this Agreement not complied
with, in which event the Closing shall take place within five (5) days of the
notice of Buyer's election to proceed.

                4. CONDITIONS TO BUYER'S OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE

         Buyer's obligation to purchase each of the Properties is expressly
conditioned upon each of the following:

4.1      APPROVALS BY BUYER

following prior to the Closing:

         4.1.1    ALTA COMMITMENTS FOR POLICIES OF TITLE INSURANCE. Seller has
                  or shall cause the issuance of an ALTA commitment for policy
                  of title insurance, together with complete legible copies of
                  all encumbrances and liens of record (the "Commitment"), with
                  respect to each of the Properties to be forwarded to Buyer for
                  approval. If no written disapproval of any items in the
                  Commitment is received from Buyer on or before seven (7) days
                  after the later of delivery of the Commitment or the As-built
                  Survey (as defined in Section 4.1.2), the Commitment shall be
                  deemed approved by Buyer.

         4.1.2    AS-BUILT SURVEY. A survey of the Property (the "As-built
                  Survey") prepared by a licensed surveyor or civil engineer in
                  sufficient detail to provide for the Title Policy, certified
                  to Buyer and the Title Company conforming to the minimum
                  requirements for ALTA/ACSM land title surveys set forth on
                  Exhibit "E," attached hereto and made a part hereof. If no
                  written disapproval of the As-built Survey is received from
                  Buyer on or before seven (7) days after the later of delivery
                  of the Commitment or the As-built Survey, the As-built Survey
                  shall be deemed approved by Buyer.

         4.1.3    PHASE I ENVIRONMENTAL SITE ASSESSMENT REPORT. A Phase I
                  environmental site assessment report ("Phase I") prepared by
                  Giles Engineering Associates in accordance with ASTM
                  guidelines; provided that the Phase I be dated no earlier than
                  one (1) year prior to the Scheduled Closing Date (as defined
                  in Section 8), and further provided that written evidence of
                  Buyer's ability to rely on the Phase I be contemporaneously
                  delivered to Buyer. If no written disapproval of the Phase I
                  is received from Buyer on or before ten (10) days after
                  delivery of same, the Phase I shall be deemed approved by
                  Buyer.

         4.1.4    PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS. Seller shall submit to Buyer copies
                  of any as-built plans and specifications ("Plans & Specs") it
                  has in its possession in connection with the Properties.
                  Seller's failure to deliver copies of Plans & Specs for any of
                  the Properties shall constitute Seller's representation to
                  Buyer that Seller does not have such Plans & Specs in its
                  possession.


                                                              PAGE 3 of 19 PAGES
<Page>

         4.1.5    APPRAISAL. Seller has or shall cause a narrative appraisal
                  ("Appraisal") to be prepared on a completed project basis,
                  covering the land, improvements, and the Leases for the
                  Properties by Cushman & Wakefield. If no written disapproval
                  of the Appraisal is received from Buyer or before ten (10)
                  days after delivery of same, the Appraisal shall be deemed
                  approved by Buyer.

         4.1.6    CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCY. Seller has caused or shall cause a
                  notice of completion and/or permanent certificate of occupancy
                  or its equivalent to be delivered to Buyer for each of the
                  Properties to the extent issued by the municipality in which
                  the Property is located.

         All of Seller's representations and warranties contained in or made
pursuant to this Agreement shall have been true and correct when made and shall
be true and correct as of the Closing, and Seller shall have complied with all
of Seller's covenants and agreements contained in or made pursuant to this
Agreement.

4.3      NO HAZARDOUS MATERIALS

         Buyer's satisfaction that there are no Hazardous Materials (as defined
in Section 13.9) on the Properties.

4.4      FOREIGN INVESTMENTS

         Buyer's receipt of the affidavit, certification, or notice required by
Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended and the
Regulations pursuant thereto, in a form sufficient to relieve Buyer of any
potential transferee withholding liability under such Section. If Seller fails
to deliver such affidavit, certification, or notice to Buyer prior to or at the
Closing, or Buyer has knowledge or receives notice of the falsity of such
document, then the transactions shall be completed at the Closing, but Buyer
shall withhold ten percent (10%) of the "amount realized" (as set forth in the
Regulations) by Seller and transmit it to the Internal Revenue Service Center,
Philadelphia, PA 19255, all in accordance with Section 1445 and the Regulations
pursuant thereto.

4.5      CHANGE IN CONDITIONS

         If any of the conditions in this Section 4 change after having been
satisfied or waived by Buyer and before the transaction contemplated herein is
closed, then such condition(s) shall be reinstated as if having never been
satisfied or waived by Buyer.

4.6      FAILURE OF CONDITIONS

         4.6.1    The foregoing conditions contained in this Section 4 are
                  intended solely for the benefit of Buyer. If any of the
                  foregoing conditions are not satisfied or approved by Buyer,
                  Buyer shall have the right at its sole

                  election, but subject to Seller's substitution rights set
                  forth in section 19.17 below, either (i) to waive the
                  condition in question and proceed with the purchase of all of
                  the Properties pursuant to all of the other terms of this

not in default. Neither (i) the exercise of the right of termination, (ii) delay

documents, shall affect the right of the party giving notice of termination to
pursue legal or equitable remedies for the other party's breach of this
Agreement. Nor shall (i) the giving of such notice, (ii) the failure to object

Closing shall be prorated on the basis of the parties' reasonable estimates of

ascertained.

         Either party owing the other party a sum of money based on adjustments
made to prorations after the Closing shall promptly pay that sum to the other
party, together with interest thereon at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per
annum to the date of payment if payment is not made within ten (10) days after
mutual agreement of the amount due.

previously delivered to Escrow Agent by Buyer.

         Following the Closing, Escrow Agent shall deliver to Buyer and to

damaged or destroyed Property, or may agree to restore and repair such damage,
either before or after the Closing. Termination shall be by written notice to
Buyer within five (5) days after the occurrence of the damage or destruction.
Buyer shall have no obligation to accept Seller's offer to restore or repair
such damage if such restoration and repair would cause the Scheduled Closing
Date to be extended. If the restoration or repair shall take place after the
Closing, a portion of the proceeds of sale equal to the estimated cost of such
restoration or repair, shall be held in escrow by the Title Company until Seller
has completed the restoration or repair to the reasonable satisfaction of Buyer.

Buyer shall have the option to make either of the following elections:

         16.2.1   Terminate this Agreement with respect to the affected Property
                  by written notice to Seller within five (5) days of its
                  receiving notice of such action of condemnation; or

         16.2.2   Proceed with the transaction in which case the Purchase Price
                  shall not be reduced and Buyer shall be entitled to the net
                  award paid to Seller or Seller's mortgagee for the taking, if
                  any, and Seller shall assign and transfer to Buyer all right,
                  title, and interest in and to any awards. Notwithstanding the
                  foregoing, any portion of any award granted for the
                  restoration or repair of the Property shall be paid over to
                  Seller upon Seller's completion of such restoration and
                  repairs.

                                 17. POSSESSION

         Possession of the Properties shall be delivered to Buyer at the
