Non-Employee Director Stock Ownership Guidelines
Purpose: The purpose of the Stock Ownership Guidelines for non-employee directors is to align
the interests of non-employee directors with the long-term interests of stockholders and further
promote the commitment of Spirit Realty Capital, Inc. (“Spirit”) to sound corporate governance.
Ownership Requirement: Each non-employee director is expected to hold an investment position
in Spirit common stock equal in value to three times the annual retainer paid to directors.
Measurement: Compliance with these ownership guidelines will be measured on the first trading
day of each calendar year, using the annual director retainer then in effect, and the closing price of
Spirit common stock on that day.
Transition Period: There will be a transition period of five years for non-employee directors to
achieve the ownership requirement. If at any time the annual retainer increases, the non-employee
director will have five years from the time of such increase to acquire any additional shares needed
to meet these guidelines. Non-employee directors will be expected to make steady progress toward
meeting the guidelines throughout the five-year transition period.
Holdings Considered: The following holdings will be considered when measuring stock
ownership:
Shares owned individually, shares owned jointly with a spouse, or shares owned separately
by a spouse and/or children that share the director's household; and
Restricted Stock Awards that have not yet vested.
