Cash NOI Reconciliation

Confidential Material - Not for Distribution American Realty Capital New York City REIT, Inc. 12 ▪ Cash net operating income ("Cash NOI") is a non - GAAP financial measure equal to net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, less income from investment securities and interest, plus general and administrative expenses, acquisition an d transaction - related expenses, depreciation and amortization, other non - cash expenses and interest expense. In calculating Cash NOI, we also eliminate the effects of straight - lining of rent and the amortization of above and below market leases. Cash NOI should not be considered as a n alternative to net income (loss) as an indication of our performance or to cash flows as a measure of our liquidity ▪ We use Cash NOI internally as a performance measure and believe Cash 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 le vel. Therefore, we believe Cash 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 Cash NOI is useful to investors as performance measures because, when compared across periods, Cash NOI reflects the impact on operations from trends in occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs and acquisition activity on an unlever ed basis. Cash NOI excludes certain components from net income in order to provide results that are more closely related to a property's results of opera tio ns. For example, interest expense is not linked to the operating performance of a real estate asset and Cash NOI is not affected by whether the financing is at the property level or corporate level. In addition, depreciation and amortization, because of historical cost ac counting and useful life estimates, may distort operating performance at the property level. Cash NOI presented by us may not be comparable to Cash NOI reported by other REITs that define Cash NOI differently. We believe that in order to facilitate a clear understanding of our operating results, Cash NOI should be examined in conjunction with net income (loss) as presented in our consolidated financial statements.

Risk Factors There are risks associated with an investment in American Realty Capital New York City REIT, Inc. The following is a summary of some of these risks. See the section entitled “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10 - K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2016 for a discussion of the risks which should be considered in connection with your investment . ▪ We have a limited operating history which makes our future performance difficult to predict; ▪ All of our executive officers are also officers, managers or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in our advisor, Ne w York City Advisors, LLC (our "Advisor") and other entities affiliated with AR Global Investments, LLC (the successor business to AR Capital, LLC, "AR Glob al" ); as a result, our executive officers, our Advisor and its affiliates face conflicts of interest, including significant conflicts created by our Advisor’s co mpensation arrangements with us and other investor entities advised by AR Global affiliates, and conflicts in allocating time among these entities and us, which cou ld negatively impact our operating results; ▪ We depend on tenants for our revenue and, accordingly, our revenue is dependent upon the success and economic viability of our t ena nts; ▪ We may not be able to achieve our rental rate objectives on new and renewal leases and our expenses could be greater, which may imp act operations; ▪ Our properties may be adversely affected by economic cycles and risks inherent to the New York metropolitan statistical area ("MS A") , especially New York City; ▪ We have not generated and may not generate cash flows from operations sufficient to cover distributions paid to stockholders; as su ch, we may be unable to maintain cash distributions or increase distributions over time; ▪ We are obligated to pay fees, which may be substantial, to our Advisor and its affiliates; ▪ We may fail to continue to qualify to be treated as a real estate investment trust for United States federal income tax purposes (" REIT"); American Realty Capital New York City REIT, Inc. 13

▪ Because investment opportunities that are suitable for us may also be suitable for other AR Global - advised programs or investors , our Advisor and its affiliates may face conflicts of interest relating to the purchase of properties and other investments and such conflicts may not be resolve d i n our favor, meaning that we could invest in less attractive assets, which could reduce the investment return to our stockholders; ▪ We are party to an investment opportunity allocation agreement (the "Allocation Agreement") with another program that is sponsor ed by American Realty Capital III, LLC (our "Sponsor"), pursuant to which we may not have the first opportunity to acquire all properties identified by our Ad visor and its affiliates ; ▪ No public market currently exists, or may ever exist, for shares of our common stock and our shares are, and may continue to be, il liquid; ▪ If we and our Advisor are unable to find suitable investments, then we may not be able to achieve our investment objectives, or pay distributions with cash flows from operations; ▪ Increases in interest rates could increase the amount of our debt payments and limit our ability to pay distributions; ▪ We are permitted to pay distributions from unlimited amounts of any source. Until substantially all of the proceeds from our ini tial public offering (the "IPO") are invested, we may use proceeds from our IPO and financings to fund distributions until we have sufficient cash flows from oper ati ons. There are no established limits on the amount of net proceeds and borrowings that we may use to fund distribution payments, except in accordance with our org ani zational documents and Maryland law ; ▪ Any distributions may reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in properties and other permitted investments and negativ ely impact the value of your investment; ▪ We may be deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act") , a nd thus subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act; and ▪ As of March 31, 2016, we owned only five properties and therefore have limited diversification.
