              Recently the House of Representatives and the Senate approved
legislation that includes a provision that would limit a REIT's ability to own
more than 10% by vote or value of the stock of another corporation. As of the
date of this pricing supplement this legislation has not been enacted into law.
As discussed in the Prospectus under the heading "Certain Federal Income Tax
Consequences To The Company Of Its REIT Election -- Taxation of the Company as a
REIT -- Asset Tests," a REIT cannot currently own more than 10% of the
outstanding voting securities of any one issuer. The provision contained in the
legislation approved by the House of Representatives and the Senate would allow
a REIT to own any percentage of the voting stock and value of a taxable REIT
subsidiary, provided all of a REIT's taxable subsidiaries do not represent more
than 20% of the REIT's total assets and at least 75% of the REIT's total assets
are real estate assets or other qualifying assets. Additionally, the legislation
approved in the House of Representatives and in the Senate includes a provision
that would prevent a taxable REIT subsidiary from deducting interest on debt
funded directly or indirectly by a REIT if certain tests regarding the taxable
REIT subsidiary's debt to equity ratio and interest expense were satisfied. The
legislation also includes a provision that would reduce the REIT distribution
requirement from 95% to 90% of a REIT's taxable income. The REIT distribution
requirement is discussed in the Prospectus under the heading "Certain Federal
Income Tax Consequences To The Company Of Its REIT Election - Taxation of the
Company as a REIT - Annual Distribution Requirements." If this legislation is
enacted in its current form, Kimco Realty Corporation may be required to
restructure its interest in Kimco Realty Services, Inc. because Kimco Realty
Corporation owns more than 10% of the value of Kimco Realty Services, Inc. and
because Kimco Realty Corporation has loaned funds to Kimco Realty Services, Inc.
Kimco Realty Corporation does not believe any such restructuring would have a
material impact on its financial results or financial position. The REIT
provisions contained in this legislation are generally effective for taxable
years ending after December 31, 2000. In addition, the legislation includes a
provision that provides transition rules to allow corporations, like Kimco
Realty Services, Inc. to convert into "taxable REIT subsidiaries" tax-free.
Although it is currently anticipated that the legislation approved in the House
of Representatives and the Senate will be enacted in its current form, there can
be no assurance that this will be the case.
