20 Definitions Net Operating Income ("NOI"): Net operating income ("NOI " ) is a non - GAAP financial measure equal to net income attributable to stockholders, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, less discontinued operations, interest, other income and income from preferred equity investments and inve stm ents securities, plus corporate general and administrative expense, acquisition and transaction costs, depreciation and amortization, other non - cash expenses and interest e xpense. NOI is adjusted to include our pro - rata share of NOI from unconsolidated joint ventures. We use NOI internally as a performance measure and believe NOI provides useful inform ati on to investors regarding our financial condition and results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level. Theref ore , we believe NOI is a useful measure for evaluating the operating performance of our real estate assets and to make decisions about resource allocations. Further, we believe NOI is use ful to investors as a performance measure because, when compared across periods, NOI reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating c ost s and acquisition activity on an unleveraged basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income. NOI excludes certain components from net income in order to p rov ide results that are more closely related to a property's results of operations. For example, interest expense is not necessarily linked to the operating performance of a r eal estate asset and is often incurred at the corporate level as opposed to the property level. In addition, depreciation and amortization, because of historical cost accounting and useful l ife estimates, may distort operating performance at the property level. NOI presented by us may not be comparable to NOI reported by other REITs that define NOI differently. We believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of our operating results, NOI should be examined in conjunction with net income as presented in our consolidated financial statements. NOI sho uld not be considered as an alternative to net income as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of our liquidity or ability to make dividends.

21 Forward - Looking Statements and Additional Information Certain statements made in this presentation are forward - looking statements. These forward - looking statements and information re lating to us that are based on current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections and our management’s beliefs and assumptions about us, our future performance and our bu sin ess. These statements may include, but are not limited to, statements regarding stockholder liquidity and investment value and returns, as well as statements regarding our pro posed tender offer (the “Offer”) and changes to our Investment Objectives and Acquisition and Investment Policies (our “New Strategy”) that will be implemented in connection wit h t he proposed listing of our shares of common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) as described in this presentation. In addition, we, or others on our behalf, may make forwar d - l ooking statements in press releases or written statements, or in our communications and discussions with analysts in the normal course of business through meetings, webcast s, phone calls and conference calls. The words “anticipates,” believes,” “expects,” “estimates,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “may,” “will,” “would” and similar expressi ons are intended to identify forward - looking statements, although not all forward - looking statements contain these identifying words. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward - looking statements. Further, forward - looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and we undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward - looking statement to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results, unless required to do so by law. The following are some of the r isk s and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward - looking statements: ; We may not be able to complete the listing of our common stock on the NYSE. ; We may not be able to complete the Offer. ; We may not be able to satisfy the conditions required to borrow and fund the tender offer under our existing revolving loan credit facility, which will also be a condition to the Off er. ; The price at which our common stock trades on the NYSE may be higher or lower than the purchase price in the tender offer. ; The number of shares acquired in the Offer may be less than number for which we are making the Offer. ; The cost of any indebtedness incurred to fund the Offer. ; We may not be able to successfully execute our New Strategy. ; We may make additional share repurchases (including in the open market) following completion of the Offer, or offer to purchase shares pursuant to additional tender offers; the number of shares acquired in such repurchases or additional tender offers; and the terms, timing, costs and interest rate on any indebtedness inc urred to fund such repurchases or additional tender offers . ; We have limited experience managing a mix portfolio of net lease assets and commercial real estate investments. This inexperience makes our future performance difficult to predict. Past performance of other real estate investment programs sponsored by affiliates of our Advisor should not be relied upon to pr edict our future results. ; We have limited ability to terminate our Advisor under the Advisory Agreement. ; All of our executive officers are also officers, managers or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our Advi sor and other American Realty Capital affiliated entities. As a result, our executive officers, our Advisor and its affiliates face conflicts of interest, including significant conflicts cr eat ed by our Advisor's compensation arrangements with us and other investment programs advised by American Realty Capital affiliates and conflicts in allocating time among these investme nt programs and us. These conflicts could result in unanticipated actions.

22 Forward - Looking Statements and Additional Information ; We may be unable to pay or maintain cash distributions or increase distributions over time. ; We are obligated to pay fees and distributions, which may be substantial, to our Advisor and its affiliates. ; We depend on tenants for our revenue and, accordingly, our revenue is dependent, and under our New Strategy will be partially de pendent, upon the success and economic viability of our tenants. ; The commercial real estate debt in which we invest may not always be secured by a lien on real property and will be subject t o t he risks typically associated with commercial real estate, including delinquency, foreclosure, loss and bankruptcy of the borrower which could result in losses to us. ; We could experience delays in liquidating defaulted commercial real estate debt investments, reducing our investment returns. ; Increases in interest rates could increase the amount of our debt payments and limit our ability to pay distributions to our sto ckholders. ; Our organizational documents permit us to pay distributions from unlimited amounts of any source. For example, there are no e sta blished limits on the amount of borrowings that we may use to fund such distribution payments.
