Item 8.01. Other Events
On June 6, 2012, American Realty Capital Trust III, Inc. (“ARCT III”) announced today that it had notified its selling group members that, through June 6, 2012, ARCT III has raised $770 million of the maximum $1.5 billion under its offering (plus an additional $237 million DRIP). The average equity raise of $210 million for the past several months suggests that ARCT III will reach its maximum offering and close to new investments in September 2012. As ARCT III has previously communicated and, in line with its best practices, ARCT III will close its offering as originally sized and will not raise additional capital through a follow-on offering.
On June 6, 2012, ARCT III issued a press release announcing the foregoing. A copy of the press release is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.
In addition, on June 6, 2012, Realty Capital Securities, LLC, the dealer manager for ARCT III sent a letter relating to this announcement to due diligence officers and financial advisors. A copy of each of the letters is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2, respectively.
