 Phillips Edison—ARC Shopping Center REIT Inc.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
 
1. ORGANIZATION
 
Phillips Edison—ARC Shopping Center REIT Inc. was formed as a Maryland corporation on October 13, 2009.  Substantially all of our business is conducted through Phillips Edison—ARC Shopping Center Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), a Delaware limited partnership formed on December 3, 2009. We are a limited partner of the Operating Partnership, and our wholly owned subsidiary, Phillips Edison Shopping Center OP GP LLC, is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership.
 
On January 13, 2010, we filed a registration statement on Form S-11 (No. 333-164313) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) to offer a maximum of 180 million shares of common stock for sale to the public, of which 150 million shares were registered in our primary offering and 30 million shares were registered under our dividend reinvestment plan (the “DRP”). The SEC declared our registration statement effective on August 12, 2010. On November 19, 2013, we reallocated 26.5 million shares from the DRP to the primary offering. We ceased offering shares of common stock in our primary offering on February 7, 2014. Subsequent to the end of our primary offering, we reallocated approximately 2.7 million unsold shares from the primary offering to the DRP. On June 18, 2014, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-196870) with the SEC to register an additional 12 million shares to be offered pursuant to the DRP. We continue to offer up to a total of approximately 18.2 million shares of common stock under the DRP. Stockholders who elect to participate in the DRP may choose to invest all or a portion of their cash distributions in shares of our common stock at a purchase price of $9.50 per share.
 
Our advisor is American Realty Capital II Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”), a limited liability company that was organized in the State of Delaware on December 28, 2009 and that is under common control with AR Capital, LLC (the “AR Capital sponsor”). Under the terms of the advisory agreement between the Advisor and us, the Advisor is responsible for the management of our day-to-day activities and the implementation of our investment strategy. The Advisor has delegated most of its duties under the advisory agreement, including the management of our day-to-day operations and our portfolio of real estate assets, to Phillips Edison NTR LLC (the “Sub-advisor”), which is directly or indirectly owned by Phillips Edison Limited Partnership (the “Phillips Edison sponsor”), and Michael Phillips and Jeffrey Edison, principals of our Phillips Edison sponsor, pursuant to a sub-advisory agreement between the Advisor and the Sub-advisor. Notwithstanding such delegation to the Sub-advisor, the Advisor retains ultimate responsibility for the performance of all the matters entrusted to it under the advisory agreement.
 
We invest primarily in well-occupied grocery-anchored neighborhood and community shopping centers having a mix of creditworthy national and regional retailers selling necessity-based goods and services in strong demographic markets throughout the United States. In addition, we may invest in other retail properties including power and lifestyle shopping centers, multi-tenant shopping centers, free-standing single-tenant retail properties, and other real estate and real estate-related loans and securities depending on real estate market conditions and investment opportunities that we determine are in the best interests of our stockholders. We expect that retail properties primarily would underlie or secure the real estate-related loans and securities in which we may invest.  As of June 30, 2014, we owned fee simple interests in 120 real estate properties, acquired from third parties unaffiliated with us, the Advisor, or the Sub-advisor.
 
On September 20, 2011, we entered into a joint venture with a group of institutional international investors advised by CBRE Investors Global Multi Manager (each a “CBRE Investor”). The joint venture was in the form of PECO-ARC Institutional Joint
Venture I., L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Joint Venture”).  We serve as the general partner and manage the operations of the Joint Venture. Prior to December 31, 2013, we indirectly held a 54% interest in the Joint Venture, and the CBRE Investors held the remaining 46% interest.  We contributed approximately $58.7 million, in the form of equity interests in six wholly owned real estate properties and cash, to the Joint Venture, and the CBRE Investors contributed $50.0 million in cash. On December 31, 2013, we acquired the 46% interest in the Joint Venture previously owned by the CBRE Investors for a purchase price of $57.0 million. As a result, we owned 100% of the Joint Venture as of December 31, 2013. Prior to December 31, 2013, we owned a 54% interest in 20 of our real estate properties through the Joint Venture.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
Set forth below is a summary of the significant accounting estimates and critical accounting policies that management believes are important to the preparation of our condensed consolidated interim financial statements. Certain of our accounting estimates are particularly important for an understanding of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by management. As a result, these estimates are subject to a degree of uncertainty. There have been no

changes to our significant accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2014. For a summary of our significant accounting policies previously adopted, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
 
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation—The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Readers of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should refer to the audited financial statements of Phillips Edison—ARC Shopping Center REIT Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2013, which are included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as certain footnote disclosures contained in such audited financial statements have been omitted from this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation have been included in this Quarterly Report. Our results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full year.
 
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our majority-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.
 
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—We may use derivative instruments to manage exposure to variable interest rate risk. We generally enter into interest rate swaps to manage such risk. We may enter into derivative instruments that qualify as cash flow hedges, and we do not enter into derivative instruments for speculative purposes. Interest rate swaps are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. We assess effectiveness of our cash flow hedges both at inception and on an ongoing basis. The effective portion of changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into interest expense as interest is incurred on the related variable rate debt. Our cash flow hedges become ineffective if critical terms of the hedging instrument and the debt instrument do not perfectly match, such as notional amounts, settlement dates, reset dates, the calculation period and the LIBOR rate. When ineffectiveness exists, the ineffective portion of changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps associated with our cash flow hedges is recognized in earnings in the period affected.

Changes in fair value as well as net payments or receipts under interest rate swap agreements that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment are recorded as other income or other expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

In addition, we evaluate the default risk of the counterparty by monitoring the credit worthiness of the counterparty.  Derivative instruments and hedging activities require management to make judgments on the nature of its derivatives and their effectiveness as hedges. These judgments determine if the changes in fair value of the derivative instruments are reported in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss as a component of net loss or as a component of comprehensive income and as a component of stockholders' equity on the consolidated balance sheets. Although management believes its judgments are reasonable, a change in a derivative's effectiveness as a hedge could materially affect expenses, net income and equity.
 
Earnings Per Share—Earnings per share are calculated based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted income per share considers the effect of any potentially dilutive share equivalents for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
 
There were 1,302,862 and 163,617 Class B units of the Operating Partnership outstanding and held by the Advisor and the Sub-advisor as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The vesting of the Class B units is contingent upon a market condition and service condition. The satisfaction of the market or service condition was not probable as of June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and therefore, the Class B units are not included in earnings per share.
 
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—In March 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-06, Technical Corrections and Improvements Related to Glossary Terms. The amendments in this update include technical corrections to the glossary including glossary links, glossary term deletions, glossary term name changes, and other miscellaneous technical corrections. In addition, the update includes more substantive, limited-scope improvements to reduce instances of the same term appearing multiple times in the glossary with similar, but not entirely identical, definitions. ASU 2014-06 was effective upon issuance. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

In April 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The amendments in this update raise the threshold for a property disposal to qualify as a discontinued operation and

7



require new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a discontinued operation. Unless we elect early adoption, the standard will be effective for us on January 1, 2015. In future periods, the adoption of this pronouncement may result in property disposals not qualifying for discontinued operations presentation, and thus the results of those disposals will remain in income from continuing operations.

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 will eliminate the transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance currently in place under GAAP and will replace it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 does not apply to lease contracts accounted for under ASC 840, Leases. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is prohibited. We are currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

3. EQUITY
 
General—We have the authority to issue a total of 1,000,000,000 shares of common stock with a par value of $0.01 per share and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $0.01 par value per share. As of June 30, 2014, we had issued 179,211,759 shares of common stock generating gross cash proceeds of $1.77 billion.  As of June 30, 2014, there were 179,029,310 shares of our common stock outstanding, which is net of 182,449 shares repurchased from stockholders pursuant to our share repurchase program, and we had issued no shares of preferred stock. The holders of shares of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters voted on by stockholders, including election of the board of directors. Our charter does not provide for cumulative voting in the election of directors.
 
Dividend Reinvestment Plan—We have adopted the DRP that allows stockholders to invest distributions in additional shares of our common stock at a price equal to $9.50 per share. Stockholders who elect to participate in the DRP, and who are subject to U.S. federal income taxation laws, will incur a tax liability on an amount equal to the fair value on the relevant distribution date of the shares of our common stock purchased with reinvested distributions, even though such stockholders have elected not to receive the distributions used to purchase those shares of common stock in cash.  Distributions reinvested through the DRP for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, were $15.8 million and $2.2 million, respectively.  Distributions reinvested through the DRP for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, were $31.0 million and $3.2 million, respectively.
 
Share Repurchase Program—Our share repurchase program may provide a limited opportunity for stockholders to have shares of common stock repurchased, subject to certain restrictions and limitations, at a price equal to or at a discount from the stockholders' original purchase prices paid for the shares being repurchased.
 
Repurchase of shares of common stock will be made monthly upon written notice received by us at least five days prior to the end of the applicable month. Stockholders may withdraw their repurchase request at any time up to five business days prior to the repurchase date.
 
The board of directors may, in its sole discretion, amend, suspend, or terminate the share repurchase program at any time. If the board of directors decides to amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program, stockholders will be provided with no less than 30 days’ written notice. During the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, there were 71,096 and 37,680 shares repurchased for $0.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively, under the share repurchase program for an average repurchase price of $9.78 and $9.92 per share, respectively.  During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, there were 87,067 and 37,680 shares repurchased for $0.9 million and $0.4 million, respectively, under the share repurchase program for an average repurchase price of $9.78 and $9.92 per share, respectively.  As of June 30, 2014, we recorded a liability of $0.6 million that represents our obligation to repurchase 60,510 shares of common stock submitted for repurchase as of June 30, 2014 but not yet repurchased.

4. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
 
ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is intended to be a market-based measurement, as opposed to a transaction-specific measurement. Fair value is defined by ASC 820 as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate the fair value. Assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from three levels of the fair value hierarchy, as follows:

8



Level 1—Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that we have the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market is defined as a market in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
Level 2—Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active (markets with few transactions), inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).
Level 3—Unobservable inputs, only used to the extent that observable inputs are not available, reflect our assumptions about the pricing of an asset or liability.
 
The following describes the methods we use to estimate the fair value of our financial and non-financial assets and liabilities:
 
Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments, accounts receivable, and accounts payable—We consider the carrying values of these financial instruments to approximate fair value because of the short period of time between origination of the instruments and their expected realization.

Real estate investments—The purchase prices of the investment properties, including related lease intangible assets and liabilities, were allocated at estimated fair value based on Level 3 inputs, such as discount rates, capitalization rates, comparable sales, replacement costs, income and expense growth rates and current market rents and allowances as determined by management.
 
Mortgages and loans payable —We estimate the fair value of our debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at rates currently offered for similar debt instruments of comparable maturities by our lenders using Level 3 inputs.  The discount rate used approximates current lending rates for loans or groups of loans with similar maturities and credit quality, assuming the debt is outstanding through maturity and considering the debt’s collateral (if applicable).  Such discount rates for fixed-rate debt were 4.15% and 4.5% as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The discount rates for secured and unsecured variable-rate debt were 2.65% and 1.45%, respectively, as of June 30, 2014. We have utilized market information, as available, or present value techniques to estimate the amounts required to be disclosed.  The fair value and recorded value of our borrowings as of June 30, 2014, were $361.3 million and $354.5 million, respectively.  The fair value and recorded value of our borrowings as of December 31, 2013, were $201.4 million and $200.9 million, respectively.
 
Derivative instruments As of June 30, 2014, we are party to one interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $11.8 million, assumed as part of the acquisition of Townfair Shopping Center, which is measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The interest rate swap agreement effectively fixes the variable interest rate of our secured variable-rate mortgage note, secured by Townfair Shopping Center, payable at an annual interest rate of 5.22% through June 10, 2018.

As of December 31, 2013, we were a party to one interest rate swap agreement with a notional amount of $50.0 million that was measured at fair value on a recurring basis.  The interest rate swap agreement effectively fixed the variable interest rate of a $50.0 million portion of our unsecured credit facility at 2.10% through December 2017. On February 21, 2014, we sold this interest rate swap to an unaffiliated party.
 
The fair values of the interest rate swap agreements as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 were based on the estimated amounts we would receive or pay to terminate the contracts at the reporting date and were determined using interest rate pricing models and interest rate related observable inputs.  Although we determined that the significant inputs used to value our derivatives fell within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our counterparties and our own credit risk utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by us and our counterparties. However, as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of our derivative position and have determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivative. As a result, we have determined that our derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
 
Considerable judgment is necessary to develop estimated fair values of financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts we did or could actually realize upon disposition of the financial assets and liabilities previously sold or currently held (see Note 10).

5. REAL ESTATE ACQUISITIONS
 
During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we acquired 37 grocery-anchored retail centers and one strip center adjacent to a previously acquired grocery-anchored retail center for a combined purchase price of approximately $602.8 million, including $139.0 million of assumed debt with a fair value of $141.5 million.  Additionally, we assumed an interest rate swap agreement valued as a $0.7 million liability at the time of our acquisition of Townfair Shopping Center. The following tables present certain additional information regarding our acquisitions of properties which were deemed individually immaterial when acquired, but are material in the aggregate.  We allocated the purchase price of these acquisitions to the fair value of the assets acquired and lease liabilities assumed as follows (in thousands):

The following unaudited pro forma information summarizes selected financial information from our combined results of operations, as if all of our acquisitions for 2013 and 2014 had been acquired on January 1, 2013.
 
We estimated that revenues, on a pro forma basis, for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, would have been approximately $48.1 million and $49.1 million, respectively, and our net income attributable to our stockholders, on a pro forma basis, would have been approximately $5.4 million and $5.6 million, respectively. The pro forma net income per share would have been approximately $0.03 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

We estimated that revenues, on a pro forma basis for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, would have been approximately $96.8 million and $96.9 million, respectively. Our net income or net loss attributable to our stockholders, on a pro forma basis, would have been net income of approximately $12.9 million and a net loss of approximately $13.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The pro forma net income or net loss per share would have been

10



net income per share of approximately $0.07 and net loss per share of approximately $0.08 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The following unaudited pro forma information summarizes selected financial information from our combined results of operations, as if all of our acquisitions for 2012 and 2013 had been acquired on January 1, 2012.

We estimated that revenues, on a pro forma basis, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, would have been approximately $18.7 million and $17.2 million, respectively, and our net income attributable to our stockholders, on a pro forma basis excluding acquisition expenses, would have been approximately $2.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively. The pro forma net income per share excluding acquisition expenses would have been $0.06 and $0.02, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

We estimated that revenues, on a pro forma basis, for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012, would have been approximately $36.2 million and $34.3 million, respectively, and our net income attributable to our stockholders, on a pro forma basis excluding acquisition expenses, would have been approximately $3.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively. The pro forma net income per share excluding acquisition expenses would have been $0.10 and $0.04, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

7. MORTGAGES AND LOANS PAYABLE
 
As of June 30, 2014, we had approximately $316.4 million of outstanding mortgage notes payable, excluding fair value of debt adjustments.  As of December 31, 2013, we had approximately $196.1 million of outstanding mortgage notes payable.  Each mortgage note payable is secured by the respective property on which the debt was placed. 

11



 
We also have access to a $350 million unsecured revolving credit facility, which may be expanded to $600 million, with a $32.0 million current outstanding principal balance as of June 30, 2014, from which we may draw additional funds to pay certain long-term debt obligations as they mature.  As of June 30, 2014, the current borrowing capacity of the unsecured revolving credit facility was $227.1 million, as calculated using properties eligible to be included in the calculation of the borrowing base as defined by the terms of the credit facility.  The interest rate on amounts outstanding under this credit facility is currently LIBOR plus 1.30%. The credit facility matures on December 18, 2017, with two six-month options to extend the maturity to December 18, 2018.

Of the amount outstanding on our mortgage notes and loans payable at June 30, 2014, $6.4 million is for loans that mature in 2014, excluding monthly scheduled principal payments.  We intend to repay or refinance any principal balance outstanding on loans maturing in 2014 as they mature. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the weighted-average interest rate for the loans was 5.07% and 5.61%, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2014, in conjunction with our acquisition of ten real estate properties, we assumed debt of $139.0 million with a fair value of $141.5 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, in conjunction with our acquisition of four real estate properties, we assumed debt of $54.4 million with a fair value of $57.2 million. The assumed debt market adjustment will be amortized over the remaining life of the loans, and this amortization is classified as interest expense. The amortization recorded on the assumed below-market debt adjustment was $0.7 million and $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. The amortization recorded on the assumed below-market debt adjustment was $1.2 million and $0.5 million, for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The following is a summary of our debt obligations as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (in thousands):

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
Litigation
 
In the ordinary course of business, we may become subject to litigation or claims. There are no material legal proceedings pending, or known to be contemplated, against us.
 
Environmental Matters
 

13



In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate, we may be potentially liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters. We have not been notified by any governmental authority of any material non-compliance, liability or other claim, nor are we aware of any other environmental condition that we believe will have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

10. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
 
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
 
We are exposed to certain risks arising from both our business operations and economic conditions. We principally manage our exposure to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of our core business activities. We manage economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of our debt funding and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, we enter into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. Our derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of our known or expected cash receipts and our known or expected cash payments principally related to our investments and borrowings.
 
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
 
Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we primarily use interest rate swaps as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for our making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
 
The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings. During 2014, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with certain variable-rate debt. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. 

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we terminated our only designated interest rate swap and accelerated the reclassification of amounts in other comprehensive income to earnings as a result of the hedged forecasted transactions becoming probable not to occur. The accelerated amounts were a gain of $690,000 recorded in other income, net, in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss for the six months ended June 30, 2014. As a result of the hedged forecasted transaction becoming probable not to occur, the swap was de-designated as a cash flow hedge in February 2014, and changes in fair value of a loss of $326,000 were recorded directly in earnings during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

As of June 30, 2014, we had no active outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage our exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks, but do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements to be classified as hedging instruments. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedges are recorded directly in earnings and were a gain of $26,000 and a loss of $300,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, including the loss recorded to earnings related to the aforementioned de-designated swap. We did not have any derivatives that were not designated as hedges during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

We have an agreement with our derivative counterparty that contains a provision where, if we either default or are capable of being declared in default on any of our indebtedness, we could also be declared to be in default on our derivative obligations.

As of June 30, 2014, the fair value of our derivative was a net liability position including accrued interest, but excluding any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to this agreement. As of June 30, 2014, we have not posted any collateral related to this agreement.

11. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
 
Advisory Agreement—Pursuant to our advisory agreement, the Advisor is entitled to specified fees for certain services, including managing our day-to-day activities and implementing our investment strategy. The Advisor has entered into a sub-advisory agreement with the Sub-advisor, which manages our day-to-day affairs and our portfolio of real estate investments on behalf of the Advisor, subject to the board’s supervision and certain major decisions requiring the consent of both the Advisor and Sub-advisor. The expenses to be reimbursed to the Advisor and Sub-advisor will be reimbursed in proportion to the amount of expenses incurred on our behalf by the Advisor and Sub-advisor, respectively.
 
Organization and Offering Costs—Under the terms of the advisory agreement, we are to reimburse on a monthly basis the Advisor, the Sub-advisor or their respective affiliates for cumulative organization and offering costs and future organization and offering costs they may incur on our behalf but only to the extent that the reimbursement would not exceed 1.5% of gross offering proceeds over the life of our primary initial public offering and our DRP offering. As of June 30, 2014, the Advisor, Sub-advisor and their affiliates have charged us approximately $27.42 million of cumulative organization and offering costs, and we have reimbursed $27.37 million of such costs, resulting in a net payable of $0.05 million. As of December 31, 2013, the Advisor, Sub-advisor and their affiliates had charged us approximately $26.3 million of cumulative organization and offering costs, and we had reimbursed $25.87 million of such costs, resulting in a net payable of $0.38 million.
 
Acquisition Fee—We pay the Advisor an acquisition fee related to services provided in connection with the selection and purchase or origination of real estate and real estate-related investments. The acquisition fee is equal to 1.0% of the cost of investments we acquire or originate, including any debt attributable to such investments.

Acquisition Expenses—We reimburse the Sub-advisor for expenses actually incurred related to selecting, evaluating, and acquiring assets on our behalf.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we reimbursed the Sub-advisor for personnel costs related to due diligence services for assets we acquired during the period.
 
Asset Management Fee—We issue to the Advisor and the Sub-advisor, on a quarterly basis, performance-based Class B units of the Operating Partnership.  During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Operating Partnership issued 770,481 Class B units to the Advisor and the Sub-advisor under the advisory agreement for the asset management services performed by the Advisor and the Sub-advisor during the period from October 1, 2013 to March 31, 2014. These Class B units will not vest until an economic hurdle has been met and the Advisor and Sub-advisor continue to provide advisory services through the date that such economic hurdle is met. The economic hurdle will be met when the value of the Operating Partnership’s assets plus all distributions made equal or exceed the total amount of capital contributed by investors plus a 6% cumulative, pre-tax, non-compounded annual return thereon.

The CBRE Investors paid asset management fees in cash pursuant to the advisory agreement between the Joint Venture and the Advisor through December 31, 2013. On December 31, 2013, we acquired the 46% interest in the Joint Venture previously owned by the CBRE Investors. As a result, we own 100% of the Joint Venture as of December 31, 2013.
 

15



Financing Fee—We pay the Advisor or Sub-advisor a financing fee equal to 0.75% of all amounts made available under any loan or line of credit.
 
Disposition Fee—For substantial assistance by the Advisor, Sub-advisor or any of their affiliates in connection with the sale of properties or other investments, we will pay the Advisor or its assignee 2.0% of the contract sales price of each property or other investment sold. The conflicts committee of our board of directors will determine whether the Advisor, Sub-advisor or their respective affiliates have provided substantial assistance to us in connection with the sale of an asset. Substantial assistance in connection with the sale of a property includes the Advisor’s or Sub-advisor’s preparation of an investment package for the property (including an investment analysis, rent rolls, tenant information regarding credit, a property title report, an environmental report, a structural report and exhibits) or such other substantial services performed by the Advisor or Sub-advisor in connection with a sale. However, if we sell an asset to an affiliate, our organizational documents will prohibit us from paying the Advisor, the Sub-advisor or their respective affiliates a disposition fee. As of June 30, 2014, we have not disposed of any properties or other investments, and no disposition fees have been earned by or paid to the Advisor or Sub-advisor.
 
General and Administrative Expenses—As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, we owed the Advisor, the Sub-advisor and their affiliates $69,000 and $85,000, respectively, for general and administrative expenses paid on our behalf.  As of June 30, 2014, neither the Advisor nor the Sub-advisor have allocated any portion of their employees’ salaries to general and administrative expenses.

Summarized below are the fees earned by and the expenses reimbursable to the Advisor and the Sub-advisor, except for organization and offering costs and general and administrative expenses, which we disclose above, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and any related amounts unpaid as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (in thousands):

Paid by the CBRE Investors pursuant to the advisory agreement between the Joint Venture and the Advisor.
 
Subordinated Participation in Net Sales Proceeds—The Operating Partnership will pay to PE-ARC Special Limited Partner, LLC (the “Special Limited Partner”) a subordinated participation in the net sales proceeds of the sale of real estate assets equal to 15.0% of remaining net sales proceeds after return of capital contributions to stockholders plus payment to stockholders of a 7.0% cumulative, pre-tax, non-compounded return on the capital contributed by stockholders.  The Advisor has a 15.0% interest and the Sub-advisor has an 85.0% interest in the Special Limited Partner.  No sales of real estate assets occurred in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
 
Subordinated Incentive Listing Distribution—The Operating Partnership will pay to the Special Limited Partner a subordinated incentive listing distribution upon the listing of our common stock on a national securities exchange.  Such incentive listing distribution is equal to 15.0% of the amount by which the market value of all of our issued and outstanding common stock plus distributions exceeds the aggregate capital contributed by stockholders plus an amount equal to a 7.0% cumulative, pre-tax non-compounded annual return to stockholders. 
 
Neither the Special Limited Partner nor any of its affiliates can earn both the subordinated participation in net sales proceeds and the subordinated incentive listing distribution.  No subordinated incentive listing distribution was earned for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.
 
Subordinated Distribution Upon Termination of the Advisor Agreement—Upon termination or non-renewal of the advisory agreement, the Special Limited Partner shall be entitled to a subordinated termination distribution in the form of a non-interest bearing promissory note equal to 15.0% of the amount by which the cost of our assets plus distributions exceeds the aggregate capital contributed by stockholders plus an amount equal to a 7.0% cumulative, pre-tax non-compounded annual return to

16



stockholders.  In addition, the Special Limited Partner may elect to defer its right to receive a subordinated distribution upon termination until either a listing on a national securities exchange or a liquidity event occurs.  
 
Property Manager—All of our real properties are managed and leased by Phillips Edison & Company Ltd. (the “Property Manager”), an affiliated property manager. The Property Manager is wholly owned by our Phillips Edison sponsor and was organized on September 15, 1999. The Property Manager also manages real properties acquired by the Phillips Edison affiliates or other third parties.
 
Commencing June 1, 2014, the amount we pay to the Property Manager in monthly property management fees decreased from 4.5% to 4.0% of the monthly gross cash receipts from the properties managed by the Property Manager. In the event that we contract directly with a non-affiliated third-party property manager with respect to a property, we will pay the Property Manager a monthly oversight fee equal to 1.0% of the gross revenues of the property managed. In addition to the property management fee or oversight fee, if the Property Manager provides leasing services with respect to a property, we pay the Property Manager leasing fees in an amount equal to the leasing fees charged by unaffiliated persons rendering comparable services based on national market rates. The Property Manager shall be paid a leasing fee in connection with a tenant’s exercise of an option to extend an existing lease, and the leasing fees payable to the Property Manager may be increased by up to 50% in the event that the Property Manager engages a co-broker to lease a particular vacancy. We reimburse the costs and expenses incurred by the Property Manager on our behalf, including employee compensation, legal, travel and other out-of-pocket expenses that are directly related to the management of specific properties, as well as fees and expenses of third-party accountants.

If we engage the Property Manager to provide construction management services with respect to a particular property, we pay a construction management fee in an amount that is usual and customary for comparable services rendered to similar projects in the geographic market of the property.
 
The Property Manager hires, directs and establishes policies for employees who have direct responsibility for the operations of each real property it manages, which may include, but is not limited to, on-site managers and building and maintenance personnel. Certain employees of the Property Manager may be employed on a part-time basis and may also be employed by the Sub-advisor or certain of its affiliates. The Property Manager also directs the purchase of equipment and supplies and will supervise all maintenance activity.
 
Summarized below are the fees earned by and the expenses reimbursable to the Property Manager for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and any related amounts unpaid as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 (in thousands):

Excluding shares sold pursuant to the “friends and family” program, the Dealer Manager was generally paid a sales commission equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of the common stock sold in the primary offering and a dealer manager fee equal to 3.0% of the gross proceeds from the sale of shares of the common stock sold in the primary offering.  The Dealer Manager typically reallowed 100% of the selling commissions and a portion of the dealer manager fee to participating broker-dealers.

Share Purchases by Sub-advisor—The Sub-advisor agreed to purchase on a monthly basis sufficient shares sold in our public offering such that the total shares owned by the Sub-advisor was equal to at least 0.10% of our outstanding shares (excluding shares issued after the commencement of, and outside of, the initial public offering) at the end of each immediately preceding month. The Sub-advisor purchased shares at a purchase price of $9.00 per share, reflecting no dealer manager fee or selling commissions paid on such shares.
 
As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Sub-advisor owned 176,509 shares of our common stock, or approximately 0.10% of our common stock issued during our initial public offering period, which closed on February 7, 2014.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
 
Certain statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Phillips Edison – ARC Shopping Center REIT Inc. (“we,” the “Company,” “our” or “us”) other than historical facts may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). We intend for all such forward-looking statements to be covered by the applicable safe harbor provisions for forward-looking statements contained in those acts. Such statements include, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies, and prospects and are subject to certain risks and uncertainties, including known and unknown risks, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected or anticipated. Therefore, such statements are not intended to be a guarantee of our performance in future periods. Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by our use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “believe,” “continue,” or other similar words. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date this report is filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). We make no representations or warranties (express or implied) about the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and we do not intend to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
 
Any such forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors and are based on a number of assumptions involving judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive, and market conditions, all of which are difficult or impossible to predict accurately. To the extent that our assumptions differ from actual conditions, our ability to accurately anticipate results expressed in such forward-looking statements, including our ability to generate positive cash flow from operations, make distributions to stockholders, and maintain the value of our real estate properties, may be significantly hindered. See Item 1A in Part II of this Form 10-Q and Item 1A in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 for a discussion of some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all of the risks and uncertainties, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements.
 
Overview
 
Organization
 
Phillips EdisonARC Shopping Center REIT Inc. was formed as a Maryland corporation on October 13, 2009 and elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2010. On January 13, 2010, we filed a registration statement on Form S-11 with the SEC to offer a maximum of 180 million shares of common stock for sale to the public, of which 150 million shares were registered in our primary offering and 30 million shares were registered under the DRP. The SEC declared our registration statement effective on August 12, 2010. On November 19, 2013, we reallocated 26.5 million shares from the DRP to the primary offering. We ceased offering shares of common stock in our primary offering on February 7, 2014. Subsequent to the end of our primary offering, we reallocated approximately 2.7 million unsold shares from the primary offering to the dividend reinvestment plan ("DRP"). On June 18, 2014, we filed a registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC to register an additional 12 million shares to be offered pursuant to the DRP. We continue to offer up to a total of approximately 18.2 million shares of common stock under the DRP.
 
Our advisor is American Realty Capital II Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”), a limited liability company that was organized in the State of Delaware on December 28, 2009 and that is under common control with AR Capital LLC (the “AR Capital sponsor”). Under the terms of the advisory agreement between the Advisor and us, the Advisor is responsible for the management of our day-to-day activities and the implementation of our investment strategy. The Advisor has delegated most of its duties under the advisory agreement, including the management of our day-to-day operations and our portfolio of real estate assets, to Phillips Edison NTR LLC (the “Sub-advisor”), which is directly or indirectly owned by Phillips Edison Limited Partnership (the “Phillips Edison sponsor”) and Michael Phillips and Jeffrey Edison, principals of our Phillips Edison sponsor. Notwithstanding such delegation to the Sub-advisor, the Advisor retains ultimate responsibility for the performance of all the matters entrusted to it under the advisory agreement.

We invest primarily in well-occupied grocery-anchored neighborhood and community shopping centers having a mix of creditworthy national and regional retailers selling necessity-based goods and services in strong demographic markets throughout the United States. In addition, we may invest in other retail properties including power and lifestyle shopping centers, multi-tenant shopping centers, free-standing single-tenant retail properties, and other real estate and real estate-related loans and securities depending on real estate market conditions and investment opportunities that we determine are in the best

20



interests of our stockholders. We expect that retail properties primarily would underlie or secure the real estate-related loans and securities in which we may invest.

The capitalization rate is calculated by dividing the annualized in-place net operating income of a property as of the date of acquisition by the contract purchase price of the property.  Annualized in-place net operating income is calculated by subtracting the estimated annual operating expenses of a property from the annualized rents to be received from tenants occupying space at the property as of the date of acquisition.
(2) 
The capitalization rate with straight-line rent is calculated by dividing the annualized in-place net operating income, inclusive of straight-line rental income, of a property as of the date of acquisition by the contract purchase price of the property.  Annualized in-place net operating income is calculated by subtracting the estimated annual operating expenses of a property from the straight-line annualized rents to be received from tenants occupying space at the property as of the date of acquisition.

We calculate annualized effective rent as monthly contractual rent as of June 30, 2014 multiplied by 12 months, less any tenant concessions.
 
Portfolio Tenancy
 
Prior to the acquisition of a property, we assess the suitability of the grocery-anchor tenant and other tenants in light of our investment objectives, namely, preserving capital and providing stable cash flows for distributions. Generally, we assess the strength of the tenant by consideration of company factors, such as its financial strength and market share in the geographic area of the shopping center, as well as location-specific factors, such as the store’s sales, local competition and demographics. When assessing the tenancy of the non-anchor space at the shopping center, we consider the tenant mix at each shopping center in light of our portfolio, the proportion of national and national franchise tenants, the creditworthiness of specific tenants, and the timing of lease expirations. When evaluating non-national tenancy, we attempt to obtain credit enhancements to leases, which typically come in the form of deposits and/or guarantees from one or more individuals.

We owned 46 properties as of June 30, 2013 and 120 properties as of June 30, 2014.  Unless otherwise discussed below, year-to-year comparative differences for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, are almost entirely attributable to the number of properties owned and the length of ownership of these properties.

During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we entered into 31 new leases comprising a total of 59,676 square feet. These leases will generate first-year base rental revenues of $1.0 million, representing average rent per square foot of $16.69.  In addition, we executed renewals on 70 leases comprising a total of 220,589 square feet.  These leases will generate first-year base rental revenues of $3.6 million, representing average rent per square foot of $16.39. Prior to the renewals, the average annual rent was $15.98 per square foot.  The cost of executing the leases and renewals, including leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs, and tenant concessions, was $8.32 per square foot.

In addition to a $0.5 million increase related to the acquisition of 94 properties in 2013 and 2014, the primary reasons for the $1.8 million increase in general and administrative expenses were a $0.6 million increase in transfer agent fees, an increase of $0.4 million in consulting expenses related to proxy solicitation and other services, and an increase of $0.2 million in investor relations expenses.

The $2.6 million increase in interest expense is primarily comprised of $3.2 million related to the acquisition of 94 properties in 2013 and 2014. These costs were partially offset by a reduction in interest expense in the amount of $0.6 million due to the repayments of principal on our revolving credit facility and certain of our variable-rate mortgage loans.

We owned 46 properties as of June 30, 2013 and 120 properties as of June 30, 2014.  Unless otherwise discussed below, year-to-year comparative differences for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, are almost entirely attributable to the number of properties owned and the length of ownership of these properties.

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we entered into 58 new leases comprising a total of 101,408 square feet. These leases will generate first-year base rental revenues of $1.6 million, representing average rent per square foot of $15.84.  In addition, we executed renewals on 107 leases comprising a total of 306,436 square feet.  These leases will generate first-year base rental revenues of $5.3 million, representing average rent per square foot of $17.29. Prior to the renewals, the average annual rent was $16.79 per square foot.  The cost of executing the leases and renewals, including leasing commissions, tenant improvement costs, and tenant concessions, was $8.80 per square foot.

In addition to a $0.8 million increase related to the acquisition of 94 properties in 2013 and 2014, the primary reasons for the $2.7 million increase in general and administrative expenses were a $1.2 million increase in transfer agent fees, an increase of $0.4 million in consulting expenses related to proxy solicitation and other services, and a $0.2 million increase in insurance expense.

The $4.2 million increase in interest expense is primarily comprised of $5.5 million related to the acquisition of 94 properties in 2013 and 2014. These costs were partially offset by a reduction in interest expense in the amount of $1.7 million due to the repayments of principal on our revolving credit facility and certain of our variable-rate mortgage loans, a $0.2 million increase in loan fees related to the unused balance on our revolving credit facility and a $0.3 increase in amortization of deferred financing costs related to our revolving credit facility.

We generally expect our revenues and expenses to increase in future years as a result of owning the properties acquired in 2014 for a full year and the acquisition of additional properties. Although we expect our general and administrative expenses to increase, we expect such expenses to decrease as a percentage of our revenues.

Same-Center Net Operating Income
  
We present Same-Center Net Operating Income (“Same-Center NOI”) as a supplemental measure of our performance. We define Net Operating Income (“NOI”) as total operating revenues less property operating expenses. Same-Center NOI represents the NOI for the 26 properties that were operational for the entire portion of both comparable reporting periods and that were not acquired during the comparable reporting periods. We believe that NOI and Same-Center NOI provide useful information to our investors about our financial and operating performance because each provides a performance measure of the revenues and expenses directly involved in owning and operating real estate assets and provides a perspective not immediately apparent from net income. Because Same-Center NOI excludes the change in NOI from properties acquired after December 31, 2012, it highlights operating trends such as occupancy levels, rental rates and operating costs on properties that

29



were operational for both comparable periods. Other REITs may use different methodologies for calculating Same-Center NOI, and accordingly, our Same-Center NOI may not be comparable to other REITs.
 
Same-Center NOI should not be viewed as an alternative measure of our financial performance since it does not reflect the operations of our entire portfolio, nor does it reflect the impact of general and administrative expenses, acquisition expenses, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, other income, or the level of capital expenditures and leasing costs necessary to maintain the operating performance of our properties that could materially impact our results from operations.

Below is a reconciliation of net loss to Same-Center NOI for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 (in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
General
 
Our principal demands for funds are for real estate and real estate-related investments and the payment of acquisition expenses, operating expenses, distributions to stockholders, and principal and interest on our outstanding indebtedness. As of June 30, 2014, we had sold 179,211,759 shares of common stock in the primary portion of our initial public offering for gross offering proceeds of approximately $1.77 billion. We ceased offering shares in the primary portion of our initial public offering on February 7, 2014. We continue to offer shares of common stock under the DRP. As of June 30, 2014, we had sold 5,392,081 shares of common stock under the DRP for gross offering proceeds of $51.2 million. As of June 30, 2014, we have invested substantially all of the proceeds from our initial public offering in real estate properties; however, we anticipate making additional investments using our remaining offering proceeds and proceeds from additional debt. We intend to use our cash on hand, proceeds from debt financing, cash flow generated by our real estate operations, and proceeds from our DRP as our primary sources of immediate and long-term liquidity.
 
As of June 30, 2014, we had cash and cash equivalents of $20.3 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we had a net cash decrease of $440.0 million.
 
This cash decrease was the result of:

$35.1 million provided by operating activities, largely the result of income generated from operations before depreciation and amortization charges.  Also included in this total was $11.3 million of real estate acquisition expenses incurred during the period and expensed in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805, Business Combinations;
$458.0 million used in investing activities, which was the primarily the result of the 37 property acquisitions along with capital expenditures of $4.6 million and a decrease in restricted cash of $2.9 million; and

30



$17.1 million used in financing activities with distributions paid to our stockholders of $27.9 million, payments of financing costs of $2.3 million, payments of offering costs of $1.8 million, $18.7 million of payments on the mortgage loans payable and $0.9 million in redemptions of common stock. Partially offsetting these costs were $32.0 million of proceeds from mortgages and loans payable and $2.5 million of proceeds from the issuance of common stock pursuant to the DRP.
 
Short-term Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through existing cash on hand, investments in certificates of deposits, net cash provided by property operations, DRP proceeds, and proceeds from secured and unsecured debt financings. Operating cash flows are expected to increase as additional properties are added to our portfolio.
 
We have $348.4 million of contractual debt obligations, representing mortgage loans secured by our real estate assets and our unsecured revolving credit facility, excluding below-market debt adjustments of $6.1 million, net of accumulated amortization, as of June 30, 2014.  As they mature, we intend to refinance our debt obligations, if possible, or pay off the balances at maturity using proceeds from corporate-level debt or any net proceeds of our primary offering that may remain after the acquisition of additional properties.   Of the amount outstanding at June 30, 2014, $6.4 million is for loans that mature in 2014, excluding monthly scheduled principal payments. We have access to a $350 million unsecured revolving credit facility, which may be expanded to $600 million, with a current outstanding principal balance of $32.0 million as of June 30, 2014, from which we may draw funds to pay certain long-term debt obligations as they mature.  As of June 30, 2014, the borrowing capacity of the unsecured revolving credit facility was $227.1 million, as calculated using properties eligible to be included in the borrowing base.
 
For the six months ended June 30, 2014, gross distributions of approximately $59.0 million were paid to stockholders, including $31.0 million of distributions reinvested through the DRP, for net cash distributions of $27.9 million. On July 1, 2014, gross distributions of approximately $9.9 million were paid, including $5.2 million of distributions reinvested through the DRP, for net cash distributions of $4.7 million. On August 1, 2014, gross distributions of approximately $10.2 million were paid, including $5.4 million of distributions reinvested through the DRP, for net cash distributions of $4.8 million.  Distributions were funded by a combination of cash generated from operating activities and proceeds from our primary offering.
 
On July 9, 2014, our board of directors authorized distributions to the stockholders of record at the close of business each day in the period commencing August 1, 2014 through and including August 31, 2014. The authorized distributions equal an amount of $0.00183562 per share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share. This equates to a 6.70% annualized yield when calculated on a $10.00 per share purchase price. A portion of each distribution is expected to constitute a return of capital for tax purposes. 

Long-term Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
On a long-term basis, our principal demands for funds will be for real estate and real estate-related investments and the payment of acquisition expenses, operating expenses, distributions and redemptions to stockholders and interest and principal on indebtedness.  Generally, we expect to meet cash needs for items other than acquisitions and acquisition expenses from our cash flow from operations, and we expect to meet cash needs for acquisitions and acquisition expenses from the remaining net proceeds of our primary offering and from debt financings.  As they mature, we intend to refinance our long-term debt obligations if possible, or pay off the balances at maturity using proceeds from corporate-level debt or any net proceeds of our primary offering that may remain after the acquisition of additional properties.  We expect that substantially all net cash generated from operations will be used to pay distributions to our stockholders after certain capital expenditures, including tenant improvements and leasing commissions, are funded; however, we have and may continue to use other sources to fund distributions as necessary, including borrowings and the remaining net proceeds from our primary offering.

Our board of directors has adopted corporate governance guidelines that limit our borrowings to 300% of our net assets (as defined in our corporate governance guidelines); however, we may exceed that limit if a majority of our independent directors approves each borrowing in excess of our charter limitation and if we disclose such borrowing to our stockholders in our next quarterly report with an explanation from the conflicts committee of the justification for the excess borrowing. In all events, we expect that our secured and unsecured borrowings will be reasonable in relation to the net value of our assets and will be reviewed by our board of directors at least quarterly. Careful use of debt will help us to achieve our diversification goals because we will have more funds available for investment. However, high levels of debt could cause us to incur higher interest charges and higher debt service payments, which would decrease the amount of cash available for distribution to our investors. As of June 30, 2014, our borrowings were equal to 24.7% of our net assets.

31



   
As of June 30, 2014 our leverage ratio was 17.9% (calculated as total debt, less cash and cash equivalents, as a percentage of total real estate investments, including acquired intangible lease assets and liabilities, at cost). As of December 31, 2013, our leverage ratio could not be calculated, as defined in the previous sentence, as our cash balances exceeded our debt outstanding.

Once we have fully invested all of the net proceeds of our primary offering, we intend to borrow additional funds in order to acquire additional properties until we reach an approximate 30% to 40% targeted loan-to-value ratio on our portfolio. Such additional borrowings may be in the form of mortgage loan assumptions in connection with the acquisitions of additional properties or draws from our $350 million unsecured revolving credit facility.

As of June 30, 2014, the interest rate on the amount outstanding under our variable-rate mortgage note payable was, in effect, fixed at 5.22% by an interest rate swap agreement (see Notes 4 and 10).
 
Interest Rate Hedging
 
In March 2013, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement that, in effect, fixed the variable interest rate on $50.0 million of our credit facility at 3.05% through December 2017. The swap was designated and qualified as a cash flow hedge and was recorded at fair value.  On February 21, 2014, we sold our interest rate swap to an unaffiliated party for $0.5 million.

In May 2014, in connection with the acquisition of Townfair Shopping Center, we assumed an interest rate swap agreement that, in effect, fixes the variable interest rate on $11.8 million of variable-rate mortgage debt at an annual interest rate of 5.22% through June 10, 2018. The swap has not been designated as a cash flow hedge and is recorded at fair value.

Our portfolio debt instruments and the unsecured credit facility contain certain covenants and restrictions that require us to meet certain financial ratios, including but not limited to: borrowing base loan-to-value ratio, debt service coverage ratio and fixed charge ratio. As of June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with the restrictive covenants of our outstanding debt obligations. We expect to continue to meet the requirements of our debt covenants over the short and long term.

Distributions
 
Distributions for the six months ended June 30, 2014 accrued at an average daily rate of $0.00183562 per share of common stock. Distributions for the six months ended June 30, 2013 accrued at an average daily rate of 0.00181776 per share of common stock. There were gross distributions of $9.9 million and $9.8 million accrued and payable as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. To the extent that distributions paid were greater than our cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2014, we funded such excess distributions with proceeds from our primary offering.

We expect to pay distributions monthly and continue paying distributions monthly unless our results of operations, our general financial condition, general economic conditions or other factors make it imprudent to do so. The timing and amount of distributions will be determined by our board and will be influenced in part by our intention to comply with REIT requirements of the Internal Revenue Code.
 
As of June 30, 2014, we have largely invested the proceeds from the sale of shares under the primary portion of our initial public offering. However, as we have raised substantial amounts of offering proceeds that have only recently been invested, or have not yet been invested, the income from interest or rents that we receive has been, and may continue to be, below our historical distribution rate. Consequently, we have declared and may continue to declare distributions in anticipation of funds that we expect to receive during a later period once all of our remaining net offering proceeds have been invested and we have borrowed additional funds to acquire additional properties and obtain our targeted capital structure. In these instances, we have looked to and expect to continue to look to borrowings or any remaining proceeds from our offerings to fund our distributions. To the extent that we pay distributions from sources other than our cash provided by operating activities, we will have fewer funds available for investment in properties, the overall return to our stockholders may be reduced, and subsequent investors (such as those purchasing shares pursuant to the DRP) may experience dilution. Our board has the authority under our organizational documents, to the extent permitted by Maryland law, to pay distributions from any source without limit, including proceeds from our offerings or the proceeds from the issuance of securities in the future. Because we have raised substantial amounts of offering proceeds that have not yet been invested or have only recently been invested, our cash provided by operating activities has been insufficient to fully fund our ongoing distributions. Because we do not intend to borrow money for the specific purpose of funding distribution payments, we have funded, and may continue to fund, a portion of our distributions with proceeds from our offerings. 

To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must make aggregate annual distributions to our stockholders of at least 90.0% of our REIT taxable income (which is computed without regard to the dividends paid deduction or net capital gain and which does not necessarily equal net income as calculated in accordance with GAAP). If we meet the REIT qualification requirements, we generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the income that we distribute to our stockholders each year. However, we may be subject to certain state and local taxes on our income, property or net worth, respectively, and to federal income and excise taxes on our undistributed income.
 
We have not established a minimum distribution level, and our charter does not require that we make distributions to our stockholders.

Funds from Operations, Funds from Operations Adjusted for Acquisition Expenses, and Modified Funds from Operations
 
Funds from operations, or FFO, is a non-GAAP performance financial measure that is widely recognized as a measure of REIT operating performance. We use FFO as defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) to be net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP excluding extraordinary items, as defined by GAAP, and gains (or losses) from sales of property (including deemed sales and settlements of pre-existing relationships), plus depreciation and amortization on real estate assets and impairment charges, and after related adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and subsidiaries and noncontrolling interests. We believe that FFO is helpful to our investors and our management as a measure of operating performance because it excludes real estate-related depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions, impairment charges, and extraordinary items, and as a result, when compared year to year, reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, development activities, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which are not immediately apparent from net income. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate and intangibles diminishes predictably over time, especially if such assets are not adequately maintained or repaired and renovated as required by relevant

33



circumstances and/or are requested or required by lessees for operational purposes in order to maintain the value disclosed. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, including inflation, changes in interest rates, the business cycle, unemployment and consumer spending, many industry investors and analysts have considered the presentation of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting alone to be insufficient. As a result, our management believes that the use of FFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, is helpful for our investors in understanding our performance. In particular, because GAAP impairment charges are not allowed to be reversed if the underlying fair values improve or because the timing of impairment charges may lag the onset of certain operating consequences, we believe FFO provides useful supplemental information related to current consequences, benefits and sustainability related to rental rate, occupancy and other core operating fundamentals. Additionally, we believe it is appropriate to exclude impairment charges from FFO, as these are fair value adjustments that are largely based on market fluctuations and assessments regarding general market conditions, which can change over time. Factors that impact FFO include start-up costs, fixed costs, delay in buying assets, lower yields on cash held in accounts, income from portfolio properties and other portfolio assets, interest rates on acquisition financing and operating expenses. In addition, FFO will be affected by the types of investments in our targeted portfolio, which will consist primarily of, but is not limited to, necessity-based neighborhood and community shopping centers.

An asset will only be evaluated for impairment if certain impairment indicators exist and if the carrying or book value exceeds the total estimated undiscounted future cash flows (including net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and any other ancillary cash flows at a property or group level under GAAP) from such asset. Investors should note, however, that determinations of whether impairment charges have been incurred are based partly on anticipated operating performance, because estimated undiscounted cash flows from a property, including estimated future net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and certain other ancillary cash flows, are taken into account in determining whether an impairment charge has been incurred. Although impairment charges are excluded from the calculation of FFO as described above, as impairments are based on estimated future undiscounted cash flows, investors are cautioned that we may not recover any impairment charges. FFO is not a useful measure in evaluating net asset value because impairments are taken into account in determining net asset value but not in determining FFO.

Since FFO was promulgated, GAAP has expanded to include several new accounting pronouncements, such that management and many investors and analysts have considered the presentation of FFO alone to be insufficient. Accordingly, in addition to FFO, we use both FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses and modified funds from operations, or MFFO, as defined by the Investment Program Association (“IPA”). FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses excludes acquisition fees and expenses from FFO.  In addition to excluding acquisition fees and expenses, MFFO also excludes from FFO the following items:
(1)
straight-line rent amounts, both income and expense;
(2)
amortization of above- or below-market intangible lease assets and liabilities;
(3)
amortization of discounts and premiums on debt investments;
(4)
gains or losses from the early extinguishment of debt;
(5)
gains or losses on the extinguishment or sales of hedges, foreign exchange, securities and other derivatives holdings except where the trading of such instruments is a fundamental attribute of our operations;
(6)
gains or losses related to fair-value adjustments for derivatives not qualifying for hedge accounting, including interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives;
(7)
gains or losses related to consolidation from, or deconsolidation to, equity accounting;
(8)
gains or losses related to contingent purchase price adjustments; and
(9)
adjustments related to the above items for unconsolidated entities in the application of equity accounting.

We believe that both FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses and MFFO are helpful in assisting management and investors with the assessment of the sustainability of operating performance in future periods and, in particular, after our acquisition stage is complete, because both FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses and MFFO exclude acquisition expenses that affect property operations only in the period in which the property is acquired. Thus, FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses and MFFO provide helpful information relevant to evaluating our operating performance in periods in which there is no acquisition activity.

In evaluating investments in real estate, including both business combinations and investments accounted for under the equity method of accounting, management’s investment models and analysis differentiate costs to acquire the investment from the operations derived from the investment. Prior to 2009, acquisition costs for both of these types of investments were capitalized

34



under GAAP; however, beginning in 2009, acquisition costs related to business combinations are expensed. We have funded, and intend to continue to fund, both of these acquisition-related costs from offering proceeds and borrowings and generally not from operations.  However, if offering proceeds are not available to fund these acquisition-related costs, operational cash flows may be used to fund future acquisition-related costs.  We believe by excluding expensed acquisition costs, FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses and MFFO provide useful supplemental information that is comparable for each type of real estate investment and is consistent with management’s analysis of the investing and operating performance of our properties. Acquisition fees and expenses include those paid to the Advisor, the Sub-advisor or third parties.

As explained below, management’s evaluation of our operating performance excludes the additional items considered in the calculation of MFFO based on the following economic considerations. Many of the adjustments in arriving at MFFO are not applicable to us. Nevertheless, we explain below the reasons for each of the adjustments made in arriving at our MFFO definition.

Adjustments for straight-line rents and amortization of discounts and premiums on debt investments. In the proper application of GAAP, rental receipts and discounts and premiums on debt investments are allocated to periods using various systematic methodologies. This application may result in income recognition that could be significantly different than underlying contract terms. By adjusting for these items, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the realized economic impact of lease terms and debt investments and aligns results with management’s analysis of operating performance.  The adjustment to MFFO for straight-line rents, in particular, is made to reflect rent and lease payments from a GAAP accrual basis to a cash basis.
Adjustments for amortization of above- or below-market intangible lease assets. Similar to depreciation and amortization of other real estate related assets that are excluded from FFO, GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of intangibles diminishes ratably over time and that these charges be recognized currently in revenue. Since real estate values and market lease rates in the aggregate have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, management believes that by excluding these charges, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the performance of the real estate.
Gains or losses related to fair-value adjustments for derivatives not qualifying for hedge accounting and gains or losses related to contingent purchase price adjustments. Each of these items relates to a fair value adjustment, which is based on the impact of current market fluctuations and underlying assessments of general market conditions and specific performance of the holding, which may not be directly attributable to current operating performance. As these gains or losses relate to underlying long-term assets and liabilities, management believes MFFO provides useful supplemental information by focusing on the changes in core operating fundamentals rather than changes that may reflect anticipated gains or losses.
Adjustment for gains or losses related to early extinguishment of hedges, debt, consolidation or deconsolidation and contingent purchase price. Similar to extraordinary items excluded from FFO, these adjustments are not related to continuing operations. By excluding these items, management believes that MFFO provides supplemental information related to sustainable operations that will be more comparable between other reporting periods and to other real estate operators.

By providing FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses and MFFO, we believe we are presenting useful information that also assists investors and analysts to better assess the sustainability (that is, the capacity to continue to be maintained) of our operating performance after our acquisition stage is completed. We also believe that MFFO is a recognized measure of sustainable operating performance by the non-listed REIT industry. However, under GAAP, acquisition costs are characterized as operating expenses in determining operating net income (loss). These expenses are paid in cash by us, and therefore such funds will not be available to distribute to investors. FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses and MFFO are useful in comparing the sustainability of our operating performance after our acquisition stage is completed with the sustainability of the operating performance of other real estate companies that are not as involved in acquisition activities.  However, investors are cautioned that FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses and MFFO should only be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance after our acquisition stage is completed, as both measures exclude acquisition costs that have a negative effect on our operating performance during the periods in which properties are acquired. All paid and accrued acquisition costs negatively impact our operating performance during the period in which properties are acquired and will have negative effects on returns to investors, the potential for future distributions, and cash flows generated, unless earnings from operations or net sales proceeds from the disposition of other properties are generated to cover the purchase prices of the properties we acquire. Therefore, MFFO may not be an accurate indicator of our operating performance, especially during periods in which properties are being acquired. MFFO that excludes such costs and expenses would only be comparable to that of non-listed REITs that have completed their acquisition activities and have similar operating characteristics as us. The purchase of properties, and the corresponding expenses associated with that process, is a key operational feature of our business plan to generate operational

35



income and cash flows in order to make distributions to investors. In the event that we do not have sufficient offering proceeds to fund the payment of acquisition fees and the reimbursement of acquisition expenses, we may still be obligated to pay acquisition fees and reimburse acquisition expenses to our Advisor and Sub-advisor and the Advisor and Sub-advisor will be under no obligation to reimburse these payments back to us.  As a result, such fees and expenses may need to be paid from other sources, including additional debt, operational earnings or cash flows, net proceeds from the sale of properties or from ancillary cash flows. Acquisition costs also adversely affect our book value and equity.  
 
The additional items that may be excluded from FFO to determine MFFO are cash flow adjustments made to net income in calculating the cash flows provided by operating activities.  Each of these items is considered an important overall operational factor that affects our long-term operational profitability.  These items and any other mark-to-market or fair value adjustments may be based on many factors, including current operational or individual property issues or general market or overall industry conditions.  Although we are responsible for managing interest rate, hedge and foreign exchange risk, we do retain an outside consultant to review our hedging agreements. Inasmuch as interest rate hedges are not a fundamental part of our operations, we believe it is appropriate to exclude such gains and losses in calculating MFFO, as such gains and losses are not reflective of ongoing operations.  
 
Each of FFO, FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses, and MFFO should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or income (loss) from continuing operations under GAAP, or as an indication of our liquidity, nor are any of these measures indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs, including our ability to fund distributions. In particular, as we are currently in the acquisition phase of our life cycle, acquisition-related costs and other adjustments that are increases to FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses and MFFO are, and may continue to be, a significant use of cash. MFFO has limitations as a performance measure in an offering such as ours where the price of a share of common stock is a stated value and there is no net asset value determination during the offering stage and for a period thereafter. Additionally, FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses, and MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to operate our business plan in the manner currently contemplated.  Accordingly, FFO, FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses, and MFFO should be reviewed in connection with other GAAP measurements. FFO, FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses, and MFFO should not be viewed as more prominent measures of performance than our net income or cash flows from operations prepared in accordance with GAAP. Our FFO, FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses, and MFFO as presented may not be comparable to amounts calculated by other REITs.
 
Neither NAREIT nor any regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments that we use to calculate FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses or MFFO. In the future, industry standards or regulations may cause us to adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO, FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses or MFFO.
 
The following section presents our calculation of FFO, FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses, and MFFO and provides additional information related to our operations. As a result of the timing of the commencement of our initial public offering and our active real estate operations, FFO, FFO adjusted for acquisition expenses, and MFFO are not relevant to a discussion comparing operations for the periods presented.

Critical Accounting Policies
 
There have been no changes to our critical accounting policies during the six months ended June 30, 2014. For a summary of our critical accounting policies, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
 
Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements—In March 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2014-06, Technical Corrections and Improvements Related to Glossary Terms. The amendments in this update include technical corrections to the glossary including glossary links, glossary term deletions, glossary term name changes, and other miscellaneous technical corrections. In addition, the update includes more substantive, limited-scope improvements to reduce instances of the same term appearing multiple times in the glossary with similar, but not entirely identical, definitions. ASU 2014-06 was effective upon issuance. The adoption of this pronouncement did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In April 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The amendments in this update raise the threshold for a property disposal to qualify as a discontinued operation and require new disclosures of both discontinued operations and certain other disposals that do not meet the definition of a

37



discontinued operation. Unless we elect early adoption, the standard will be effective for us on January 1, 2015. In future periods, the adoption of this pronouncement will result in most individual property disposals not qualifying for discontinued operations presentation and thus, the results of those disposals will remain in income from continuing operations.

In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 will eliminate the transaction- and industry-specific revenue recognition guidance currently under GAAP and will replace it with a principle-based approach for determining revenue recognition. ASU 2014-09 does not apply to lease contracts accounted for under ASC 840, Leases. ASU 2014-09 will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is prohibited. We are currently assessing the impact the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2014, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.
 
Item 3.       Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 
We may hedge a portion of our exposure to interest rate fluctuations through the utilization of interest rate swaps in order to mitigate the risk of this exposure. We do not intend to enter into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes.  Our hedging decisions will be determined based upon the facts and circumstances existing at the time of the hedge and may differ from our currently anticipated hedging strategy.  Because we may use derivative financial instruments to hedge against interest rate fluctuations, we may be exposed to both credit risk and market risk. Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract. If the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty will owe us, which creates credit risk for us. If the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, we will owe the counterparty and, therefore, do not have credit risk. We will seek to minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with high-quality counterparties.  Market risk is the adverse effect on the value of a financial instrument that results from a change in interest rates. The market risk associated with interest-rate contracts is managed by establishing and monitoring parameters that limit the types and degree of market risk that may be undertaken.  As of June 30, 2014, we were party to an interest rate swap agreement that, in effect, fixed the variable interest rate on $11.8 million of our secured variable-rate mortgage debt at 5.22%.

As of June 30, 2014, we have not fixed the interest rate for $32.0 million of our unsecured variable-rate debt through derivative financial instruments, and as a result, we are subject to the potential impact of rising interest rates, which could negatively impact our profitability and cash flows.
 
The analysis below presents the sensitivity of the fair market value of our financial instruments to selected changes in market interest rates.

The impact on our annual results of operations of a one-percentage point change in interest rates on the outstanding balance of our variable-rate debt at June 30, 2014 would result in approximately $0.3 million of additional interest expense. We had no other outstanding interest rate contracts as of June 30, 2014.

The above amounts were determined based on the impact of hypothetical interest rates on our borrowing cost and assume no changes in our capital structure. As the information presented above includes only those exposures that exist as of June 30, 2014, it does not consider those exposures or positions that could arise after that date. Hence, the information represented herein has limited predictive value. As a result, the ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on the exposures that arise during the period, the hedging strategies at the time, and the related interest rates.
 
We do not have any foreign operations, and thus we are not exposed to foreign currency fluctuations.
 
Item 4.         Controls and Procedures
 
Management’s Conclusions Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 
We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded

38



that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report in providing a reasonable level of assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods in SEC rules and forms, including providing a reasonable level of assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in such reports is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and our Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 
There have not been any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.







39



 PART II.     OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1.         Legal Proceedings
 
From time to time, we are party to legal proceedings, which arise in the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently involved in any legal proceedings of which the outcome is reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition, nor are we aware of any such legal proceedings contemplated by governmental authorities.
 
Item 1A.        Risk Factors
 
The following risk factors supplement the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.
 
We have paid distributions from sources other than our cash flows from operations, including net proceeds from the issuance of securities. As a result, we may not be able to sustain our distribution rate, we have fewer funds available for investment in properties and other assets, and our stockholders' overall returns may be reduced.
 
Our organizational documents permit us to pay distributions from any source without limit. To the extent we fund distributions from borrowings or the net proceeds from the issuance of securities, as we have done, we will have fewer funds available for investment in real estate properties and other real estate-related assets, and our stockholders’ overall returns may be reduced. At times, we may be forced to borrow funds to pay distributions during unfavorable market conditions or during periods when funds from operations are needed to make capital expenditures and other expenses, which could increase our operating costs. Furthermore, if we cannot cover our distributions with cash flows from operations, we may be unable to sustain our distribution rate.  For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we paid distributions of approximately $59.0 million, including distributions reinvested through the DRP, and our GAAP cash flows from operations were approximately $35.1 million. For the year ended December 31, 2013, we paid distributions of approximately $38.0 million, including distributions reinvested through the DRP, and our GAAP cash flows from operations were approximately $18.5 million.

Because the offering price in the DRP exceeds our net tangible book value per share, investors in the DRP will experience immediate dilution in the net tangible book value of their shares.

We are currently offering shares in the DRP at $9.50 per share. Our net tangible book value is a rough approximation of value calculated simply as gross book value of real estate assets plus cash and cash equivalents minus total liabilities, divided by the total number of shares of common stock outstanding. Net tangible book value is used generally as a conservative measure of net worth that we do not believe reflects our estimated value per share. It is not intended to reflect the value of our assets upon an orderly liquidation of the company in accordance with our investment objectives. Our net tangible book value reflects dilution in the value of our common stock from the issue price as a result of (i) operating losses, excluding accumulated depreciation and amortization of real estate investments, (ii) cumulative distributions in excess of our earnings, (iii) fees paid in connection with our initial public offering, including selling commissions and marketing fees re-allowed by our dealer manager to participating broker dealers, (iv) the fees and expenses paid to the Advisor and the Sub-advisor in connection with the selection, acquisition, and management of our investments and (v) general and administrative expenses. As of June 30, 2014, our net tangible book value per share was $8.20. The offering price for shares in the DRP was not established on an independent basis and bears no relationship to the net value of our assets.
 
Item 2.        Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
 
a)
We did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, during the six months ended June 30, 2014.

b)
On August 12, 2010, our Registration Statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-164313), covering our initial public offering of up to 180,000,000 shares of common stock, was declared effective under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. We commenced our public offering on August 12, 2010 upon retaining Realty Capital Securities, LLC as the dealer manager of our offering. We offered 150,000,000 shares of common stock in our primary offering at an aggregate offering price of up to $1.5 billion, or $10.00 per share with discounts available to certain categories of purchasers, on a “best efforts” basis. The 30,000,000 shares offered under the DRP were offered at an aggregate offering price of $285.0 million, or $9.50 per share. On November 19, 2013, we reallocated 26,500,000 shares from the DRP to the primary offering. We ceased offering shares of common stock in our primary offering on February 7, 2014. Subsequent to the end of our primary offering, we reallocated 2,676,000 unsold shares from the primary offering to the DRP. On June 18, 2014, we registered an additional 12,000,000 shares of common

40



stock to be sold pursuant to the DRP. We continue to offer up to 18,176,000 shares of common stock under the DRP.
 
As of June 30, 2014, we had issued 179,211,759 shares of common stock, including 5,392,081 shares sold through the DRP, generating gross cash proceeds of $1.77 billion, and we had repurchased 182,449 shares from stockholders pursuant to our share repurchase program. As of June 30, 2014, we had incurred $109.2 million in selling commissions, all of which was reallowed to participating broker-dealers, $49.9 million in dealer manager fees, $18.0 million of which was reallowed to participating broker-dealers, and $27.4 million of other offering costs.
 
From the commencement of our public offering through June 30, 2014, the net offering proceeds to us, after deducting the total expenses incurred as described above, were approximately $1.58 billion. As of June 30, 2014, we have used the net proceeds from our offerings, combined with debt financing, to purchase $1.82 billion in real estate and to pay $36.3 million of acquisition fees and expenses.

c)
During the quarter ended June 30, 2014, we redeemed shares as follows:

(1) 
All purchases of our equity securities by us in the three months ended June 30, 2014 were made pursuant to our share repurchase program.
(2) 
We announced the commencement of the program on August 12, 2010, and it was subsequently amended on September 29, 2011.
(3) 
We currently limit the dollar value and number of shares that may yet be redeemed under the program as described below.

As of June 30, 2014, we recorded a liability of $0.6 million representing our obligation to repurchase 60,510 shares of common stock submitted for repurchase during the three months ended June 30, 2014 but not yet repurchased.
There are several limitations on our ability to repurchase shares under the program:
Unless the shares are being repurchased in connection with a stockholder’s death, “qualifying disability” or “determination of incompetence,” we may not repurchase shares unless the stockholder has held the shares for one year.
During any calendar year, we may repurchase no more than 5.0% of the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year.
We have no obligation to repurchase shares if the repurchase would violate the restrictions on distributions under Maryland law, which prohibits distributions that would cause a corporation to fail to meet statutory tests of solvency.

Only those stockholders who purchased their shares from us or received their shares from us (directly or indirectly) through one or more non-cash transactions may be able to participate in the share repurchase program. In other words, once our shares are transferred for value by a stockholder, the transferee and all subsequent holders of the shares are not eligible to participate in the share repurchase program.
 
Our board of directors may amend, suspend or terminate the program upon 30 days’ notice. We may provide notice by including such information (a) in a current report on Form 8-K or in our annual or quarterly reports, all publicly filed with the SEC, or (b) in a separate mailing to the stockholders.
