Risk Factors  All of our executive officers are also officers, managers and/or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our Adv isor and other entities affiliated with AR Global Investments, LLC. As a result, our executive officers, our Advisor and its affiliates face conflict s o f interest, including significant conflicts created by our Advisor's compensation arrangements with us and other investment programs advised by AR Global Inves tme nts, LLC’s affiliates and conflicts in allocating time among these investment programs and us. These conflicts could result in unanticip ate d actions.  Because investment opportunities that are suitable for us may also be suitable for other AR Global Investments, LLC advised i nve stment programs, our Advisor and its affiliates face conflicts of interest relating to the purchase of properties and other investments and such c onf licts may not be resolved in our favor, which could reduce the investment return to our stockholders.  We may be unable to pay or maintain cash dividends or increase dividends over time.  We are obligated to pay fees which may be substantial to our Advisor and its affiliates.  We depend on tenants for our rental revenue and, accordingly, our rental revenue is dependent upon the success and economic v iab ility of our tenants.  Increases in interest rates could increase the amount of our debt payments and limit our ability to pay dividends to our stoc kho lders.  We may be unable to raise additional debt or equity financing on attractive terms or at all.  Adverse changes in exchange rates may reduce the value of our properties located outside of the United States.  We may not generate cash flows sufficient to pay dividends to our stockholders, as such, we may be forced to borrow at unfavo rab le rates or depend on our Advisor to waive reimbursement of certain expense and fees to fund our operations. There is no assurance that our Advi sor will waive reimbursement of expenses or fees.  Any of these dividends may reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in properties and other permitted investments an d n egatively impact the value of our common stock.  We are subject to risks associated with our international investments, including risks associated with compliance with and ch ang es in foreign laws, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and inflation.  We are subject to risks associated with any dislocations or liquidity disruptions that may exist or occur in the credit marke ts of the United States of America and Europe from time to time.  We may fail to continue to qualify, as a real estate investment trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which would resul t i n higher taxes, may adversely affect operations and would reduce our NAV and cash available for dividends.  We may be deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and thus subject to regula tio n under the Investment Company Act.  We may be exposed to risks due to a lack of tenant diversity, investment types and geographic diversity.  We may be exposed to changes in general economic, business and political conditions, including the possibility of intensified in ternational hostilities, acts of terrorism, and changes in conditions of United States of America or international lending, capital and financing mark ets . The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual res ults to differ materially from those presented in our forward - looking statements. See the section entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Repo rt on Form 10 - K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 29, 2016 and the section entitled “Item 1A.

Important factors that may affect actual results and cause the projections to not be achieved include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties relating to the company and other factors described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10 - K filed with the SEC on February 29 , 2016 , the Quarterly Report on Form 10 - Q filed for the quarter ended March 31 , 2016 filed on May 6 , 2016 , and in future filings with the SEC . The projections also reflect assumptions as to certain business decisions that are subject to change . As a result, actual results may differ materially from those contained in the estimates . Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the estimates will be realized . This presentation also contains estimates and information concerning our industry, including market position, market size, and growth rates of the markets in which we participate, that are based on industry publications and reports . This information involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to these estimates . We have not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the data contained in these industry publications and reports . The industry in which we operate is subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to variety of factors, including those described in the “ Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10 - K filed with the SEC on February 29 , 2016 , the Quarterly Reports on Form 10 - Q filed for the quarters ended March 31 , 2016 filed on May 6 , 2016 , and in future filings with the SEC . These and other factors could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in these publications and reports . 23

Definitions Funds from operations (“FFO”) Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts ("NAREIT"), an industry trade group, has promulgated a measure known as funds from operations ("FFO"), which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental measure to reflect the operating performance of a REIT . The use of FFO is recommended by the REIT industry as a supplemental performance measure . FFO is not equivalent to net income or loss as determined under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") . We define FFO, a non - GAAP measure, consistent with the standards established by the White Paper on FFO approved by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, as revised in February 2004 (the "White Paper") . The White Paper defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains or losses from sales of property but including asset impairment writedowns, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures . Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures are calculated to reflect FFO . Our FFO calculation complies with NAREIT's definition . The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight - line depreciation of buildings and improvements, and straight - line amortization of intangibles, which implies that the value of a real estate asset diminishes predictably over time, especially if not adequately maintained or repaired and renovated as required by relevant circumstances or as requested or required by lessees for operational purposes in order to maintain the value disclosed . We believe that, because real estate values historically rise and fall with market conditions, including inflation, interest rates, the business cycle, unemployment and consumer spending, presentations of operating results for a REIT using historical accounting for depreciation and certain other items may be less informative . Historical accounting for real estate involves the use of GAAP . Any other method of accounting for real estate such as the fair value method cannot be construed to be any more accurate or relevant than the comparable methodologies of real estate valuation found in GAAP . Nevertheless, we believe that the use of FFO, which excludes the impact of real estate related depreciation and amortization, among other things, provides a more complete understanding of our performance to investors and to management, and when compared year over year, reflects the impact on our operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs, which may not be immediately apparent from net income . However, FFO, core funds from operations ("Core FFO") and adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”), as described below, should not be construed to be more relevant or accurate than the current GAAP methodology in calculating net income or in its applicability in evaluating our operating performance . The method utilized to evaluate the value and performance of real estate under GAAP should be construed as a more relevant measure of operational performance and considered more prominently than the non - GAAP FFO, Core FFO and AFFO measures and the adjustments to GAAP in calculating FFO, Core FFO and AFFO . Other REITs may not define FFO in accordance with the current NAREIT definition (as we do) or may interpret the current NAREIT definition differently than we do and/or calculate Core FFO and/or AFFO differently than we do . Consequently, our presentation of FFO, Core FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other REITs . 24

Definitions (cont’d) Funds from operations (“FFO”) (Cont’d) We consider FFO, Core FFO and AFFO useful indicators of our performance . Because FFO calculations exclude such factors as depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and gains or losses from sales of operating real estate assets (which can vary among owners of identical assets in similar conditions based on historical cost accounting and useful - life estimates), FFO facilitates comparisons of operating performance between periods and between other REITs in our peer group . Changes in the accounting and reporting promulgations under GAAP (for acquisition fees and expenses from a capitalization/depreciation model to an expensed - as - incurred model) that were put into effect in 2009 and other changes to GAAP accounting for real estate subsequent to the establishment of NAREIT's definition of FFO have prompted an increase in cash - settled expenses, specifically acquisition fees and expenses for all industries as items that are expensed under GAAP, that are typically accounted for as operating expenses . Core adjusted funds from operations (“Core AFFO”) Core FFO is FFO, excluding acquisition and transaction related costs as well as certain other costs that are considered to be non - core, such as charges relating to the Listing Note and listing related fees . The purchase of properties, and the corresponding expenses associated with that process, is a key operational feature of our business plan to generate operational income and cash flows in order to make dividend payments to stockholders . In evaluating investments in real estate, we differentiate the costs to acquire the investment from the operations derived from the investment . By excluding expensed acquisition and transaction related costs as well as non - core costs, we believe Core FFO provides 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 . 25

Definitions (cont’d) Adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) We exclude certain income or expense items from AFFO that we consider more reflective of investing activities, other non - cash income and expense items and the income and expense effects of other activities that are not a fundamental attribute of our business plan . These items include unrealized gains and losses, which may not ultimately be realized, such as gains or losses on derivative instruments, gains and losses on foreign currency transactions, gains or losses on contingent valuation rights, gains and losses on investments and early extinguishment of debt . In addition, by excluding non - cash income and expense items such as amortization of above - market and below - market leases intangibles, amortization of deferred financing costs, straight - line rent and equity - based compensation from AFFO, we believe we provide useful information regarding income and expense items which have no cash impact and do not provide liquidity to the company or require capital resources of the company . By providing AFFO, we believe we are presenting useful information that assists investors and analysts to better assess the sustainability of our ongoing operating performance without the impacts of transactions that are not related to the ongoing profitability of our portfolio of properties . We also believe that AFFO is a recognized measure of sustainable operating performance by the REIT industry . Further, we believe AFFO is useful in comparing the sustainability of our operating performance with the sustainability of the operating performance of other real estate companies that are not making a significant number of acquisitions . Investors are cautioned that AFFO should only be used to assess the sustainability of our operating performance excluding these activities, as it excludes certain costs that have a negative effect on our operating performance during the periods in which these costs are incurred . In calculating AFFO, we exclude certain expenses, which under GAAP are characterized as operating expenses in determining operating net income . These expenses are paid in cash by us, and therefore such funds will not be available to distribute to investors . All paid and accrued merger, acquisition and transaction related fees and certain other expenses negatively impact our operating performance during the period in which expenses are incurred or properties are acquired will also have negative effects on returns to investors, the ability to fund dividends or distributions in the future, and cash flows generated by us, unless earnings from operations or net sales proceeds from the disposition of other properties are generated to cover the purchase price of the property and certain other expenses . AFFO that excludes such costs and expenses would only be comparable to companies that did not have such activities . Further, under GAAP, certain contemplated non - cash fair value and other non - cash adjustments are considered operating non - cash adjustments to net income in determining cash flow from operating activities . In addition, we view fair value adjustments as items which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized . We view both gains and losses from fair value adjustments as items which are not reflective of ongoing operations and are therefore typically adjusted for when assessing operating performance . Excluding income and expense items detailed above from our calculation of AFFO provides information consistent with management's analysis of the operating performance of the properties . Additionally, fair value adjustments, which are based on the impact of current market fluctuations and underlying assessments of general market conditions, but can also result from operational factors such as rental and occupancy rates, may not be directly related or attributable to our current operating performance . By excluding such changes that may reflect anticipated and unrealized gains or losses, we believe AFFO provides useful supplemental information . As a result, we believe that the use of FFO, Core FFO and AFFO, together with the required GAAP presentations, provide a more complete understanding of our performance relative to our peers and a more informed and appropriate basis on which to make decisions involving operating, financing, and investing activities . . 26

Definitions (cont’d) Adjusted Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization, Net Operating Income, Cash Net Operating Income and Adjusted Cash Net Operating Income . We believe that earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization adjusted for acquisition and transaction - related expenses, other non - cash items and including our pro - rata share from unconsolidated joint ventures ("Adjusted EBITDA") is an appropriate measure of our ability to incur and service debt . Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities, as a measure of our liquidity or as an alternative to net income as an indicator of our operating activities . Other REITs may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently and our calculation should not be compared to that of other REITs . Net operating income ("NOI") is a non - GAAP financial measure equal to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, less discontinued operations, interest, other income and income from preferred equity investments and investment securities, plus corporate general and administrative expense, acquisition and transaction - related expenses, depreciation and amortization, other non - cash expenses and interest expense . 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 information 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 . Therefore, 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 useful 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 costs and acquisition activity on an unlevered basis, providing perspective not immediately apparent from net income . NOI excludes certain components from net income in order to provide 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 real 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 life 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 (loss) as presented in our consolidated financial statements . NOI should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of our liquidity . Cash NOI is NOI presented on a cash basis, which is NOI after eliminating the effects of straight - lining of rent and the amortization of above and below market leases . 27
