2 About the Data INVESTOR REVIEW This data and other information described herein are as of and for the three months ended September 30, 2017, unless otherwise indicated. Future performance may not be consistent with past performance and is subject to change and inherent risks and uncertainties. This information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations sections contained in VEREIT, Inc.'s (the "Company", "VEREIT", "us", "our" and "we") Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended September 30, 2017. Effective January 1, 2017, the Company determined certain non-GAAP measures and operating metrics, which include portfolio metrics, should exclude the impact of properties owned by the Company for the month beginning with the date that (i) the related mortgage loan is in default, and (ii) management decides to transfer the properties to the lender in connection with settling the mortgage note obligation and ending with the disposition date, to better reflect the ongoing operations of the Company. The Company did not update data presented for periods prior to March 31, 2017, and the three months then ended, as the impact on non-GAAP measures, including AFFO and Normalized EBITDA, and operating metrics was immaterial. See the definitions section for a description of the Excluded Properties.

16 Property Type Analysis: Retail PORTFOLIO Size, Diversity and Single Tenant Focus Protects Against Disruptors VEREIT's strategy of well-positioned single tenant properties in a diversified portfolio - made optimum by our size - helps protect against a variety of cyclical and secular disruptors. In today's retail environment, one of the key disruptors is the evolution of e-commerce. Retailers who embrace e-commerce and have the resources to implement omnichannel distribution are proving successful. Fundamentals of retail should not be forgotten. Those who continue to provide true retail value - merchandise, price and service - will also thrive. The core retail merchandise groups within our portfolio are dominated by discount; pharmacy; grocery; home and garden and convenience. A full listing is provided herein. Within each category, our focus is to create a portfolio that can both service omnichannel distribution while always considering the consumer experience. Combined, 91% of our retail and restaurant tenant base is service and/or retail merchandise categories with lower online disruption. Ultimate credit protection is a function of multi-layer diversification. The prior pages present information such as geographies, weighted average lease term and tenant margin analysis. The following breakdown provides a deeper look into the retail tenant diversification of the VEREIT portfolio by merchandise category. VEREIT's Single-Tenant Retail Advantages • Dominated by off-price and necessity shopping; only 0.2% of income is derived from Apparel & Jewelry, far less than other retail formats • Approximately 65% of retail revenue derived from public companies • Credit tenants on long-term leases with substantial capital investment (45.6% investment grade) • Generally, no use restrictions or co-tenancy issues • Ability to target desired tenants and industries Diversified Retail Portfolio Industry Group % ARI Retail - Discount 7.5% Retail - Pharmacy 6.7% Retail - Grocery & Supermarket 4.5% Retail - Home & Garden 3.2% Finance 3.1% Retail - Gas & Convenience 2.6% Retail - Motor Vehicle 2.2% Retail - Sporting Goods 2.0% Entertainment & Recreation 1.6% Retail - Warehouse Clubs 1.6% Retail - Medical Services 1.0% Retail - Pet Supply 0.9% Retail - Department Stores 0.7% Retail - Home Furnishings 0.6% Retail - Electronics & Appliances 0.5% Rental 0.5% Retail - Specialty (Other) 0.4% Retail - Hobby, Books & Music 0.3% Retail - Apparel & Jewelry 0.2% All Other 1 0.5% Total 40.6% 1) Includes 11 industries that each represent 0.2% or less.

‹#› DRA F T a Definitions & Reconciliations Q3 2017


 
32 Definitions INVESTOR REVIEW Annualized Rental Income is rental revenue under our leases on Operating Properties on a straight-line basis, which includes the effect of rent escalations and any tenant concessions, such as free rent, and excludes any bad debt allowances and any contingent rent, such as percentage rent. Management uses Annualized Rental Income as a basis for tenant, industry and geographic concentrations and other metrics within the portfolio. Annualized Rental Income is not indicative of future performance. Debt Outstanding and Adjusted Debt Outstanding are non-GAAP measures that represent the Company's outstanding principal debt balance, excluding certain GAAP adjustments, such as premiums and discounts, financing and issuance costs, and related accumulated amortization. Beginning in 2017, Adjusted Debt Outstanding omits the outstanding principal balance of mortgage notes secured by Excluded Properties. We believe that the presentation of Debt Outstanding and Adjusted Debt Outstanding, which show our contractual debt obligations, provides useful information to investors to assess our overall liquidity, financial flexibility, capital structure and leverage. Debt Outstanding and Adjusted Debt Outstanding should not be considered as alternatives to the Company's consolidated debt balance as determined in accordance with GAAP or any other GAAP financial measures and should only be considered together with, and as a supplement to, the Company's financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA and Normalized EBITDA Normalized EBITDA, as disclosed, represents EBITDA, or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, modified to exclude non- routine items such as acquisition-related expenses, litigation, merger and other non-routine transactions costs, net of insurance recoveries, gains or losses on sale of investment securities or mortgage notes receivable and legal settlements and insurance recoveries not in the ordinary course of business. We also exclude certain non-cash items such as impairments of goodwill and real estate and intangible assets, straight-line rental revenue, gains or losses on derivatives, gains or losses on the extinguishment or forgiveness of debt, write-off of program development costs, and amortization of intangibles, above-market lease assets and below-market lease liabilities. Beginning in 2017, Normalized EBITDA omits the Normalized EBITDA impact of Excluded Properties. Management believes that excluding these costs from EBITDA provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance models and analysis used by management, and provides investors a view of the performance of our portfolio over time. The Company believes that Normalized EBITDA is a useful non-GAAP supplemental measure to investors and analysts for assessing the performance of the Company's business segments. Therefore, Normalized EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income, as computed in accordance with GAAP, or as an indicator of the Company's financial performance. The Company uses Normalized EBITDA as one measure of its operating performance when formulating corporate goals and evaluating the effectiveness of the Company's strategies. Normalized EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Economic Occupancy Rate equals the sum of square feet leased (including month-to- month agreements) divided by Rentable Square Feet. Excluded Properties are properties for which (i) the related mortgage loan is in default, and (ii) management decides to transfer the properties to the lender in connection with settling the mortgage note obligation. Excluded Properties during the three months ended and at March 31, 2017, were one vacant office property and one vacant industrial property, comprising an aggregate of 578,000 square feet with aggregate Debt Outstanding of $41.8 million. Excluded Properties during the three months ended June 30, 2017, were two vacant office properties and five industrial properties, two of which were vacant. Excluded Properties at June 30, 2017, and during the three months ended September 30, 2017, were two vacant office properties and one vacant industrial property, comprising an aggregate 991,000 square feet with aggregate Debt Outstanding of $83.9 million. At September 30, 2017, the Excluded Property was one vacant industrial property, comprising 307,275 square feet with Debt Outstanding of $16.2 million. Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is the sum of (i) Interest Expense, excluding non-cash amortization, (ii) secured debt principal amortization on Adjusted Debt Outstanding and (iii) dividends attributable to preferred shares divided by Normalized EBITDA. Management believes that Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is a useful supplemental measure of our ability to satisfy fixed financing obligations. www.VEREIT.com | NYSE: VER | © 2017 VEREIT, Inc.


 
33 Definitions INVESTOR REVIEW Funds from Operations ("FFO") and Adjusted Funds from Operations ("AFFO"): Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. ("NAREIT"), an industry trade group, has promulgated a supplemental performance measure known as FFO, which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. FFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under U.S. GAAP. NAREIT defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding gains or losses from disposition of property, depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and impairment write-downs on depreciable real estate including the pro rata share of adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We calculated FFO in accordance with NAREIT's definition described above. In addition to FFO, we use AFFO as a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure to evaluate the operating performance of the Company. AFFO, as defined by the Company, excludes from FFO non-routine items such as acquisition-related expenses, litigation and other non-routine costs, net of insurance recoveries, gains or losses on sale of investment securities or mortgage notes receivable and legal settlements and insurance recoveries not in the ordinary course of business. We also exclude certain non- cash items such as impairments of goodwill and intangible assets, straight-line rental revenue, gains or losses on derivatives, reserves for loan loss, gains or losses on the extinguishment or forgiveness of debt, non-current portion of the tax benefit or expense, equity-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets, deferred financing costs, premiums and discounts on debt and investments, above-market lease assets and below-market lease liabilities. Effective January 1, 2017, we determined to omit the impact of the Excluded Properties and related non-recourse mortgage notes from FFO to calculate AFFO. Management believes that excluding these costs from FFO provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance models and analysis used by management, and provides investors a view of the performance of our portfolio over time. AFFO allows for a comparison of the performance of our operations with other publicly-traded REITs, as AFFO, or an equivalent measure, is routinely reported by publicly-traded REITs, and we believe often used by analysts and investors for comparison purposes. For all of these reasons, we believe FFO and AFFO, in addition to net income (loss), as defined by U.S. GAAP, are helpful supplemental performance measures and useful in understanding the various ways in which our management evaluates the performance of the Company over time. However, not all REITs calculate FFO and AFFO the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. FFO and AFFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs. Neither the SEC, NAREIT, nor any other regulatory body has evaluated the acceptability of the exclusions used to adjust FFO in order to calculate AFFO and its use as a non-GAAP financial performance measure. Gross Real Estate Investments represent total gross real estate and related assets of Operating Properties, including net investments in unconsolidated entities, investment in direct financing leases, investment securities backed by real estate and loans held for investment, net of gross intangible lease liabilities. www.VEREIT.com | NYSE: VER | © 2017 VEREIT, Inc.


 
34 Definitions INVESTOR REVIEW Interest Coverage Ratio equals Normalized EBITDA divided by Interest Expense, excluding non-cash amortization. Management believes that Interest Coverage Ratio is a useful supplemental measure of our ability to service our debt obligations. Interest Expense, excluding non-cash amortization is a non-GAAP measure that represents interest expense incurred on the outstanding principal balance of our debt. This measure excludes (i) the amortization of deferred financing costs, premiums and discounts, which is included in interest expense in accordance with GAAP, and (ii)the impact of Excluded Properties and related non-recourse mortgage notes. We believe that the presentation of Interest Expense, excluding non-cash amortization, which shows the interest expense on our contractual debt obligations, provides useful information to investors to assess our overall solvency and financial flexibility. Interest Expense, excluding non-cash amortization should not be considered as an alternative to the Company's interest expense as determined in accordance with GAAP or any other GAAP financial measures and should only be considered together with and as a supplement to the Company's financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Net Debt is a non-GAAP measure used to show the Company's Adjusted Debt Outstanding, less all cash and cash equivalents. We believe that the presentation of Net Debt provides useful information to investors because our management reviews Net Debt as part of its management of our overall liquidity, financial flexibility, capital structure and leverage. Net Debt Leverage Ratio equals Net Debt divided by Gross Real Estate Investments. We believe that the presentation of Net Debt Leverage Ratio provides useful information to investors because our management reviews Net Debt Leverage Ratio as part of its management of our overall liquidity, financial flexibility, capital structure and leverage. Normalized EBITDA Annualized equals Normalized EBITDA, for the respective quarter, multiplied by four. Net Debt to Normalized EBITDA Annualized equals Net Debt divided by the current quarter Normalized EBITDA multiplied by four. We believe that the presentation of Net Debt to Normalized EBITDA Annualized provides useful information to investors because our management reviews Net Debt to Normalized EBITDA Annualized as part of its management of our overall liquidity, financial flexibility, capital structure and leverage. Operating Properties refers to all properties owned by the Company and beginning in 2017, it omits Excluded Properties owned by the Company as of the reporting date. Rentable Square Feet is leasable square feet of Operating Properties. Secured Debt Ratio equals secured Adjusted Debt Outstanding divided by Adjusted Debt Outstanding. Unencumbered Asset Ratio equals unencumbered Gross Real Estate Investments divided by Gross Real Estate Investments. Management believes that Unencumbered Asset Ratio is a useful supplemental measure of our overall liquidity and leverage. Weighted Average Remaining Lease Term is the number of years remaining on each respective lease, weighted based on Annualized Rental Income of Operating Properties. www.VEREIT.com | NYSE: VER | © 2017 VEREIT, Inc.
