FIRST AMENDMENT TO PARENT-SUBSIDIARY AND OPERATIONS AGREEMENT

      This First Amendment to Parent-Subsidiary and Operations Agreement (this "Parent/Subsidiary Agreement") dated September 18, 2015 between American Realty Partners, LLC, an Arizona limited liability company with a mailing address for notice purposes of 34225 North 27th Drive, Building 5, Suite 238 in Phoenix, Arizona 85085 ("Subsidiary"), American Housing Income Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation with a mailing address for notice purposes of 34225 North 27th Drive, Building 5, Suite 238 in Phoenix, Arizona 85085 ("Parent"), and Performance Realty Management, LLC, 34225 North 27th Drive, Building 5, Suite 238 in Phoenix, Arizona 85085 ("PRM") amends and supplements the Parent-Subsidiary and Operations Agreement (the "Original Agreement"), effective as of the Effective Date of the Stock Exchange and Restructuring Agreement between Parent and Subsidiary (the "Stock Exchange Agreement"), as follows (emphasized with strikethrough text with additions in bold italics, with all remaining provisions of the Original Agreement remaining in full force and effect:

      "3. Amendment to ARP Operating Agreement.  The Parent and Subsidiary agree that the ARP Operating Agreement shall be amended to reflect that Parent shall be the sole member of the Subsidiary until such time the Parent elects through a written resolution of the Board of Directors to allow for the admission of new members. The Parent and Subsidiary agree that no supplemental resolution of Subsidiary is necessary for this amendment since this Parent/Subsidiary Agreement merges with the ARP Operating Agreement. In consideration of PRM's agreement to amend Section 3.10 of the ARP Operating Agreement, which Parent acknowledges results in less consideration paid to PRM for continuing to perform the same functions as prior to the change in control, PRM has agreed to the following amendment to Section 3.10:

'The Member acknowledges and agrees that, as the sole member of the Company, it and its shareholders directly benefit from the management services provided by Manager under this Article III. The Member further recognizes that any capital expenditures made for the benefit of the Company derive directly from the Member, as opposed to the Company itself.  Therefore, in consideration for the services to be rendered to or on behalf of the Company by the Manager, the Member shall issue 1,000,000 shares of common stock in the Member, i.e. American Housing Income Trust, Inc., by May 22, 2015 into the Member's treasury for future issuance upon written notice by PRM to Member's Secretary electing to issue the shares through the Member's transfer agent within a reasonably commercial period of time under the same or similar circumstances, but in no event greater than three business days from exercising the option, and future issuance on the annual anniversary of this the issuance  out of treasury, shares of common stock valued at one-percent (1%) of the net assets of the Company being managed by Manager under this Operating Agreement, unless otherwise agreed upon by Member and Manager, or unless doing so impairs or restricts the Member's intent of operating as a real estate investment trust.  In the event such structure impairs or restricts the Member's intent of operating as a real estate investment trust, the Member and Manager agree to work in good faith to restructure compensation for Manager in performing under this Article 3. The fee paid to Manager hereunder is intended to constitute a guaranteed payment within the meaning of IRS Code §707(c), and will be treated as an expense of the Company and deducted in determining Profits and Losses.'"

	WHEREAS, this Amendment is to be read consistent with (a) the Stock Exchange and Restructuring Agreement between American Housing Income Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation ("AHIT") and the Company dated May 15, 2015 (the "Stock Exchange Agreement"), and (b) the Parent-Subsidiary and Operations Agreement between Performance Realty Management, LLC ("PRM"), AHIT and the Company effective July 6, 2015, which represents the date of closing of the Stock Exchange Agreement (the "Parent-Subsidiary Agreement").

PRM, AHIT and the Company are individually referred to herein as a "Party" and collectively as the "Parties," unless otherwise noted.

	WHEREAS, pursuant to the Related Agreements, AHIT agreed to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Operating Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the rights, duties and obligations set forth in the Related Agreements, which are acknowledged as being adequate, the Operating Agreement is amended as follows:

	
	3.10	MANAGEMENT FEE. The Member acknowledges and agrees that, as the sole member of the Company, it and its shareholders directly benefit from the management services provided by Manager under this Article III. The Member further recognizes that any capital expenditures made for the benefit of the Company derive directly from the Member, as opposed to the Company itself.

In the event such structure impairs or restricts the Member's intent of operating as a real estate investment trust, the Member and Manager agree to work in good faith to restructure compensation for Manager in performing under this Article 3. The fee paid to Manager hereunder is intended to constitute a guaranteed payment within the meaning of IRS Code § 707(c), and will be treated as an expense of the Company and deducted in determining Profits and Losses.

	To the extent not amended herein, the balance of the Operating Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

 Exhibit 10.1 

SEVERANCE AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE 

Getty Realty Corp., which maintains its principal offices at 2 Jericho Plaza, Suite 110, Jericho, New York 11753
(“Getty” or “Company”), and Kevin C. Shea (“Employee” or “Mr. Shea”), residing at 254 Buckley Hill Rd., PO Box 176, Colchester CT. 06415, for himself and his present or former heirs, executors, administrators,
successors, and assigns (collectively referred to throughout this Agreement as “Employee”), agree that: 
 1.
Last Day of Employment. Mr. Shea’s last day of active employment with Getty was August 25, 2015 (the “Severance Date”), although Mr. Shea continued to be treated as an employee of the Company, made himself available
to render services at the request of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), remained on the Company payroll, and received the same rate of base salary as in effect on the Severance Date, through September 14, 2015. 

2. Cooperation and Transition Services. During the period beginning September 14, 2015, and ending
December 31, 2016 (“Transition Period”), Mr. Shea agrees to perform such reasonable transition and consulting services for Getty as may be requested from time to time in connection with the transitioning of the matters he was
responsible for during the term of his employment. Mr. Shea’s availability to provide services may be by telephone, e-mail or in person (as determined in accordance with the nature of the services and his schedule); provided, however, that
the level of services performed during the Transition Period shall not exceed the number of hours necessary to perform the requested services, and in no event shall the level of services provided, or to be provided, exceed 20% of
Mr. Shea’s average level of services during the 36 month period prior to the Severance Date or otherwise cause Mr. Shea to fail to incur a “separation from service” as of the Severance Date for purposes of Section 409A
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”). Mr. Shea shall be reimbursed by Getty for his reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket expenses incurred in performing the requested services during the Transition Period,
provided he submits appropriate documentation of such expenses to Getty and complies with Getty’s written expense reimbursement policies generally in effect from time-to time which are communicated to Mr. Shea. 

3. Cash Payments. 

a. Getty and Mr. Shea agree that Mr. Shea has received or is entitled to receive the following cash payments from
the Getty in connection with the termination of his employment: 
 (1) Payment of his regular base salary at
the rate in effect on the Severance Date from the Severance Date through September 14, 2015, the last payment of which was made on September 15, 2015; 

(2) $86,153.80, which is the total amount of severance pay that Mr. Shea is entitled to receive, which
amount was paid in a lump sum cash payment on September 15, 2015; 
 (3) $79,692.30, which is the sum of
Mr. Shea’s accrued and unused vacation, holiday and sick pay, which amount was paid in a lump sum cash payment on September 15, 2015; 

(4) $900.00, which is the amount of the automobile allowance Mr. Shea would have received had he been
employed throughout the month of September 2015, which will be paid to him on the first of Getty’s pay dates following the date on which the Revocation Period (as defined in Paragraph 14) expires, provided Mr. Shea has not revoked this
Agreement; and 
 (5) The balance payable pursuant to the Company’s Supplemental Executive Retirement
Plan, which amount shall be paid in accordance with the terms and conditions of such plan. 

 b. In accordance with the terms of the outstanding Restricted Stock Unit
Agreements between Employee and Getty (“RSU Awards”) as of the Severance Date, Getty agrees that Mr. Shea shall receive the following payments with respect to his outstanding restricted stock units (“RSUs”) in complete
satisfaction of Getty’s obligations under the RSU Awards: 
 (1) the cash amount determined at the close
of trading on February 26, 2016, (“Settlement Date”) by multiplying (x) 19,600, which is the number of unvested RSUs outstanding as of the Severance Date under all RSU Awards, all of which unvested RSUs shall become fully vested
by the terms of the RSU Awards as of the Severance Date, by (y) an amount equal to the closing price per share of Getty Realty Corp. common stock (“Getty Stock”) on the Settlement Date, which amount shall be paid within 30 days
following the Settlement Date (or such later date as may be required pursuant to the provisions of Code Section 409A and the regulations thereunder), and 

(2) 31,900 shares of Getty Common Stock in payment for the number of vested RSUs outstanding under the RSU
Awards as of the Severance Date, with the shares of common stock to be distributed within 30 days following the Settlement Date (or such later date as may be required pursuant to the provisions of Code Section 409A and the regulations
thereunder); and 
 (3) The number of RSUs shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 8.3
of the 2004 Getty Realty Corp. Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan; and 
 (4) Employee will be entitled to
receive Dividend Equivalent payments with respect to RSUs as provided in the applicable Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (“RSU Agreement”) with respect to any dividend on Getty Common Stock for which the Payment Date (as defined in the
relevant RSU Agreement) is on or before the Settlement Date. 
 c. In consideration for, and conditioned upon the execution
of this Agreement and not revoking this Agreement, and compliance with the terms of this Agreement, including but not limited to the provisions of Paragraphs 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8, Getty agrees that: 

(1) It will make five lump sum cash payments to Mr. Shea, each in the amount of $48,000.00, which shall be
paid on Getty’s regular pay days immediately preceding each of the following dates: December 31, 2015; March 31, 2016; June 30, 2016; September 30, 2016; and December 31, 2016.; 

(2) It will provide reimbursement for the full cost of continuation coverage through December 31, 2015,
for Mr. Shea and his eligible dependents under Getty’s medical and dental plans (the “Health Plans”) in accordance with the requirements of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended, or New York State
law (“Continuation Coverage”) to the extent Mr. Shea and/or his dependents remain eligible for such continuation coverage under the Health Plans, which amount, if any, shall be paid directly by Getty to the applicable Health Plan on a
monthly basis following Employee’s valid Continuation Coverage election; and 
 (3) It will provide the
non-disparagement covenants contained in Paragraph 7. 
 d. Getty agrees that Employee is entitled to receive his accrued
benefits under the terms of the Getty 401(k) Plan. 
 e. Employee acknowledges and agrees that: 

(1) all payments made pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to, reduced by, and payable in the amount
determined following reduction for the payment and/or withholding of federal state and local taxes as determined by the Company; and 

(2) he would not receive the monies and benefits provided pursuant to Paragraph 3.c. of this Agreement, except
for his execution of this Agreement and not revoking this Agreement, and the fulfillment of the promises contained herein. 

 This Agreement is intended to comply with, or otherwise be exempt from, Code
section 409A. With respect to any reimbursement of healthcare expenses of, or any provision of in-kind benefits to, Employee or Employee’s eligible dependents, as specified under this Agreement, such reimbursement of expenses or provision of
in-kind benefits shall be subject to the following conditions: (1) the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of in-kind benefits provided in one taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or the amount of
in-kind benefits provided in any other taxable year; (2) the reimbursement of an eligible expense shall be made no later than the end of the year after the year in which such expense was incurred; and (3) the right to reimbursement or
in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. 
 For purposes of Code section 409A,
the right to a series of installment payments under the terms of this Agreement is to be treated as a right to a series of separate payments. “Termination of employment,” or words of similar import, as used in this Agreement mean, for
purposes of any payments that are payments of deferred compensation subject to Code section 409A, Employee’s “separation from service” as defined in Code section 409A. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if a
payment obligation under the terms of this Agreement arises on account of Employee’s separation from service while Employee is a “specified employee” (as defined under Code section 409A and determined in good faith by the Company),
any payment of “deferred compensation” (as defined under Treasury regulation section 1.409A-1(b)(1), after giving effect to the exemptions in Treasury regulation sections 1.409A-1(b)(3) through (b)(12)) that is scheduled to be paid within
six months after such separation from service will be paid within 30 days after the end of the six-month period beginning on the date of Employee’s separation from service. 

4. General Release of Claims and Indemnification. 

a. Except with respect to Getty’s performance of its obligations acknowledged or undertaken under this Agreement, and as
hereinafter expressly provided in this Paragraph 4 below, Employee knowingly and voluntarily releases and forever discharges Getty and any present or former parent corporations, affiliates, subsidiaries, divisions, predecessors, insurers, successors
and assigns, and their current and former employees, attorneys, officers, directors and agents thereof (and their respective heirs, successors and assigns), both individually and in their business capacities, and their employee benefit plans and
programs and their administrators, fiduciaries and functionaries (collectively referred to throughout this Agreement as “Employer”), of and from any and all claims, known and unknown, Employee has or may have against Employer as of the
date of execution of this Agreement by Employee, including, but not limited to any alleged violation of any State or federal law (statutory or common law), regulation or ordinance (as the same may have been amended) or any company policy, plan or

rights or privileges, access to and operational control over, all such records, files and systems, in a manner that protects the integrity and confidentiality thereof and does not result in any disruption of the operations of the Company and the
Company’s maintenance of and access to such records, files and systems. 
 6. Confidentiality.

 a. Employee shall not, from the date of this Agreement, except as compelled by law or court order or administrative
agency proceeding, or except to the extent of the publicly available information regarding the same, publicize or disclose to any person or entity (excluding Employee’s immediate family, attorney and tax advisor, as set forth in Paragraph 6.b.,
below, who themselves shall adhere to all confidentiality covenants herein upon being provided such disclosure the facts or circumstances relating to the making of this Agreement. This covenant of complete confidentiality includes, but is not
limited to, any discussions surrounding the negotiation of this Agreement and the payments hereunder except to the extent of the publicly available information regarding the same; 

b. Consistent with Paragraph 6.a. above, other than to discuss the terms hereof with Employee’s immediate family,
attorney and tax advisor (each of whom must first agree not to make any disclosure that Employee himself could not make), Employee will not disclose to anyone any fact, document or other information produced or obtained in connection with this
Agreement or which Employee obtained as a consequence of being employed by Getty, except to the extent of the publicly available information regarding the same or as compelled by law or court order or administrative agency proceeding. Employee shall
be liable for any damages caused by any established violation of this covenant or any other clause of this Agreement by the Employee or any person to whom he disclosed any information protected by this Agreement (provided such person is not
testifying or making disclosure in response to legal process to the extent allowed by this Agreement); 
 c. Employee
further agrees he will not contact any current or former Getty employees other than Getty’s CEO (or his designee) and the General Counsel (as to benefits and payments due under the Agreement), to discuss the terms of this Agreement, the
circumstances giving rise to the parties’ entering into this Agreement or his separation from employment except to the extent of the publicly available information regarding the same and except that Employee shall be permitted to say that he
resigned in order to pursue other business interests; 

 d. Employee affirms that he has returned (or in the case of Company business
communicated in e-mails received or sent on e-mail accounts under his control, Employee has or will forward such to kshea@gettyrealty.com), all of Employer’s equipment in his possession or control, as well as all originals and copies of
any Employer documents, e-mails and information, regardless of the form. Employee has purged any Employer data stored in any electronic form in his possession after also confirming that the Employer has copies of or access to any such data. Employee
also affirms he is in possession (or prior to receiving the payments under Paragraph 3 above will be in possession) of all of his own personal property that he had at Employer’s premises and that Employer is not in possession of any of
Employee’s property 
 e. Employee acknowledges that during the course of his employment, he had access to information
that is confidential and proprietary to Employer and not publicly available (“Confidential Information”). Employee agrees Employer had no obligation to specifically identify any information as Confidential Information for it to be entitled
to protection as such. For purposes of this Agreement, Confidential Information shall include all information that is not publicly available and concerns the business affairs of Employer or its tenants. Employee affirms he will continue to maintain
the confidentiality of the Confidential Information consistent with Employer’s policies, attorney-client privileges, and common law, except as compelled by judicial process or court or governmental order or proceeding, provided that prior to
any potential required disclosure Employee shall; 
 (1) give Employer reasonable advice via written notice
to allow Employer to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy except to the extent that Employee’s compliance with the foregoing would cause him to violate a binding order of a Court with proper Jurisdiction; and 

(2) disclose only such information as is required by court, governmental entity or as otherwise required by
law, and use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain confidential treatment for any Confidential Information so disclosed. Employer shall reimburse Employee for reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, which are necessary to
comply with this subparagraph, provided Employee gives the Employer advanced written notice of his intent to incur such expenses and the Employer authorizes such expenses prior to the date on which they are incurred. 

f. Employee understands and agrees that violation of this Paragraph 6 or violation any other material provision of this
Agreement will constitute a material breach of this Agreement, which will cause Employer to suffer immediate, substantial and irreparable injury and which will be a sufficient basis for an award of injunctive relief and monetary damages (without
affecting the remainder of this Agreement) as well as providing Getty with the right to cease providing any outstanding consideration without affecting Employee’s release of claims, to the extent permitted by law. 

g. In addition to the specific obligations regarding the confidentiality obligations of this Paragraph 6, Employee agrees that
he will not discuss, disclose or otherwise publicize any nonpublic business or legal dealings of the Company, or of its current or former shareholders, officers, directors, employees, insurers, attorneys or agents. This prohibition is absolute, and
includes verbal, written and electronic communications (such as e-mails and computer “blogs”). Nothing in this Agreement will prevent Employee from responding truthfully in response to any lawfully-issued subpoena, but since he was
Getty’s Executive Vice President, all ethical, privilege and confidentiality obligations apply in full, and nothing herein shall be deemed to limit in any way Employee’s compliance with any court order, or judicial or administrative order
or subpoena. Employee agrees to notify the Company of the receipt of same (unless notification is prohibited by governmental order). If Employee shall require the advice of legal counsel in connection with his response or compliance with any such
subpoena or order, the Company shall arrange for, reasonably select (in the same class as DLA Piper LLP) and compensate such attorney. 

7. Non-Disparagement. Employee and Getty, through its senior officers (and Getty will direct its President, Executive
Vice President, and Chief Financial Officer and similarly situated officers), agree not to defame, disparage or demean each other in any manner whatsoever. 

 8. Cooperation. Employee agrees to cooperate with the Company, its
affiliates, and their attorneys, both during and after the Transition Period, in connection with any litigation or other proceeding arising out of or relating to matters of which Employee was involved or had knowledge prior to the termination of
Employee’s employment. Employee’s cooperation shall include, without limitation, providing assistance to the Company’s counsel, experts and consultants, and providing truthful testimony in pretrial and trial or hearing proceedings. In
the event that Employee’s cooperation is requested after the end of the Transition Period, the Company will seek to minimize interruptions to Employee’s schedule to the extent consistent with its interests in the matter and reimburse
Employee for reasonable and appropriate out-of-pocket expenses actually incurred by Employee in connection with such cooperation upon reasonable substantiation of such expenses. 

9. Governing Law and Interpretation. This Agreement shall be governed and conformed in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York without regard to its conflict or choice of law provisions thereof. In the event Employee or the Company breaches any provision of this Agreement, Employee and the Company affirm that either may institute an action to specifically
enforce any term or terms of this Agreement. Before doing so, the party alleging a breach occurred shall provide at least ten (10) days’ written notice to the other party and an additional ten (10) days after written notice is
received to permit the other party to remedy the alleged breach.
