Note 1 — Organization

Global Net Lease, Inc. (the "Company"), formerly known as American Realty Capital Global Trust, Inc., incorporated on July 13, 2011 , is a Maryland corporation that elected and qualified to be taxed as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with the taxable year ended December 31, 2013.

On April 20, 2012, the Company commenced its initial public offering ("IPO") on a "reasonable best efforts" basis of up to 150.0 million shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at a price of $10.00 per share, subject to certain volume and other discounts, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-177563 ), as amended from time to time (the "Registration Statement") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Registration Statement also covered up to 25.0 million shares of common stock issuable pursuant to a distribution reinvestment plan (the "DRIP") under which the Company's common stockholders could elect to have their distributions reinvested in additional shares of the Company's common stock. On June 13, 2014, as permitted, the Company announced the reallocation of 23.8 million shares, which represented all remaining unsold shares available pursuant to the DRIP. Concurrent with such reallocation, on June 17, 2014, the Company registered an additional 25.0 million shares to be issued under the DRIP pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-196829 ). On April 7, 2015 , in anticipation of the listing of the Company's shares of common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (the "Listing"), the suspension of the DRIP was announced. On May 7, 2015, the Company filed a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement to deregister the unsold shares registered under the Registration Statement.

The Company's IPO closed on June 30, 2014. As of March 31, 2015 , the Company had 179,634,854 shares of stock outstanding, including unvested restricted shares and shares issued under the DRIP and had received total gross proceeds from the IPO of $1.8 billion including amounts reinvested pursuant to the DRIP.

The Company was formed to primarily acquire a diversified portfolio of commercial properties, with an emphasis on sale-leaseback transactions involving single tenant net-leased commercial properties. The Company may also originate or acquire first mortgage loans secured by real estate. The Company's primary geographic target is the United States, although up to 40% of its portfolio may consist of properties purchased in Europe with an additional 10% allocation to properties purchased elsewhere internationally. All such properties may be acquired and operated by the Company alone or jointly with another party. As of March 31, 2015 , the Company had 62% of investments in U.S. and 38% in Europe and owned 309 properties consisting of 16.4 million rentable square feet, which were 100.0% leased, with an average remaining lease term of 11.6 years.

Substantially all of the Company's business is conducted through Global Net Lease Operating Partnership, L.P. (the "OP"), a Delaware limited partnership. The Company is the sole general partner and holds substantially all of the units of limited partner interests in the OP ("OP units"). Global Net Lease Special Limited Partner, LLC (the "Special Limited Partner"), an entity controlled by AR Capital Global Holdings, LLC (the "Sponsor"), contributed $200 to the OP in exchange for 22 OP units, which represents a nominal percentage of the aggregate OP ownership. A holder of OP units has the right to convert OP units for the cash value of a corresponding number of shares of the Company's common stock or, at the option of the OP, a corresponding number of shares of the Company's common stock, in accordance with the limited partnership agreement of the OP. The remaining rights of the limited partner interests are limited and do not include the ability to replace the general partner or to approve the sale, purchase or refinancing of the OP's assets.

The Company has no direct employees. The Company has retained Global Net Lease Advisors, LLC (the "Advisor") to manage the Company's affairs on a day-to-day basis. The properties are managed and leased by Global Net Lease Properties, LLC (the "Property Manager"). Realty Capital Securities, LLC (the "Dealer Manager") serves as the dealer manager of the IPO. The Advisor, Property Manager and Dealer Manager are affiliates of the Sponsor and Special Limited Partner. These related parties have received or will receive compensation and fees for services related to the IPO and for the investment and management of the Company assets. These entities receive fees during the offering, acquisition, operational and liquidation stages. The Advisor has entered into a service provider agreement with Moor Park Capital Partners LLP (the "Service Provider"). The Service Provider is not affiliated with the Company, the Advisor or the Sponsor. Pursuant to the service provider agreement, the Service Provider provides, subject to the Advisor's oversight, certain real estate related services, as well as sourcing and structuring of investment opportunities, performance of due diligence, and arranging debt financing and equity investment syndicates, solely with respect to investments in Europe. Pursuant to the service provider agreement, 50.0% of the fees payable by the Company to the Advisor and a percentage of the fees paid to the Property Manager are paid or assigned to the Service Provider, solely with respect to the Company's foreign investment strategy in Europe. Such fees are deducted from fees paid to the Advisor.

Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company included herein were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") for interim financial information and with the instructions to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The information furnished includes all adjustments and accruals of a normal recurring nature, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2015 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year or any subsequent interim period.

These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014 , which are included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on April 3, 2015 . There have been no significant changes to the Company's significant accounting policies during the three months ended March 31, 2015 other than the updates described below.

Out-of-period adjustments

During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , the Company recorded (i) additional rental income and accrued rent of $0.6 million related to the straight-line rent effect of correctly including termination payments required under leases with cancellation clauses that were considered probable when assessing the lease term and (ii) additional taxes of $0.9 million representing current foreign taxes payable of $1.2 million and a deferred tax asset of $0.3 million , both relating to 2014. We concluded that these adjustments were not material to our financial position or results of operations for the current period or any of the prior periods, accordingly, the Company recorded the related adjustments during the three months ended March 31, 2015 .

Revisions to historical cash flow statements

During the year ended December 31, 2014 , the Company identified certain historical errors in the preparation of its statement of cash flows. Specifically, the company had been (i) reflecting rent credits in connection with purchased real estate as deferred rent at closing which was then reflected as a cash inflow from operations rather than as part of the purchase price in investing activity and (ii) reflecting certain advances on its credit line (for which it did not take constructive receipt) used to acquire investments in real estate as cash inflows from financing activities and cash outflows from investing activities rather than as non-cash investing and financing activities. These items were correctly presented in the statement of cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2014 and the statement of cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2013 was revised. The Company concluded that the errors noted above were significant but not material to its cash flows for any historical periods presented. However, the Company determined that it is useful for the reader of the financial statements to view these adjustments in the period in which they originated and, as such, has revised the cash flow statement for the three months ended March 31, 2014 (as below) and will revise future quarterly presentations of the cash flow statements when the quarterly 2014 periods are refiled in 2015 for comparative purposes. The effects of these revisions are summarized below:

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (Pending Adoption)

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued revised guidance relating to revenue recognition. Under the revised guidance, an entity is required to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted under GAAP. The revised guidance allows entities to apply the full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method upon adoption. In April 2015, the FASB proposed a one-year delay of the revised guidance, although entities will be allowed to early adopt the guidance as of the original effective date. The Company has not yet selected a transition and is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-02 Consolidation (Topic 810) - Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis . The new guidance applies to entities in all industries and provides a new scope exception to registered money market funds and similar unregistered money market funds. It makes targeted amendments to the current consolidation guidance and ends the deferral granted to investment companies from applying the variable interest entity (VIE) guidance. The standard does not add or remove any of the characteristics that determine if an entity is a VIE. However, when decision-making over the entity’s most significant activities has been outsourced, the standard changes how a reporting entity assesses if the equity holders at risk lack decision making rights. Previously, the reporting entity would be required to determine if there is a single equity holder that is able to remove the outsourced decision maker that has a variable interest. The new standard requires that the reporting entity first consider the rights of all of the equity holders at risk. If the equity holders have certain rights that are deemed to give them the power to direct the entity’s most significant activities, then the entity does not have this VIE characteristic. The new standard also introduces a separate analysis specific to limited partnerships and similar entities for assessing if the equity holders at risk lack decision making rights. Limited partnerships and similar entities will be VIEs unless the limited partners hold substantive kick-out rights or participating rights. In order for such rights to be substantive, they must be exercisable by a simple majority vote (or less) of all of the partners (exclusive of the general partner and its related parties). A right to liquidate an entity is viewed as akin to a kick-out right. The guidance for limited partnerships under the voting model has been eliminated in conjunction with the introduction of this separate analysis, including the rebuttable presumption that a general partner unilaterally controls a limited partnership and should therefore consolidate it. A limited partner with a controlling financial interest obtained through substantive kick out rights would consolidate a limited partnership. The standard eliminates certain of the criteria that must be met for an outsourced decision maker or service provider’s fee arrangement to not be a variable interest. Under current guidance, a reporting entity first assesses whether it meets power and economics tests based solely on its own variable interests in the entity to determine if it is the primary beneficiary required to consolidate the VIE. Under the new standard, a reporting entity that meets the power test will also include indirect interests held through related parties on a proportionate basis to determine whether it meets the economics test and is the primary beneficiary on a standalone basis. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is allowed, including in any interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance.

In April 2015, the FASB amended the presentation of debt issuance costs on the balance sheet. The amendments require that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted for financial statements that have not previously been issued. If the Company decides to early adopt the revised guidance in an interim period, any adjustments will be reflected as of the beginning of the fiscal year that includes the interim period. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance.

Note 4 — Revolving Credit Facility

On July 25, 2013, the Company, through the OP, entered into a credit agreement relating to a credit facility that provides for aggregate revolving loan borrowings of up to $50.0 million (subject to borrowing base availability). The credit facility contains an “accordion feature” to allow the Company, under certain circumstances, to increase the aggregate borrowings under the credit facility to up to $750.0 million through additional commitments. The Company, at various times, amended the credit facility to increase the aggregate borrowings available and, on January 16, 2015 , we further amended the credit facility agreement to increase aggregate borrowings to $705.0 million . We had $633.4 million and $659.3 million outstanding under the credit facility as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively.

Availability of borrowings is based on a pool of eligible unencumbered real estate assets. The initial maturity date of the facility is July 25, 2016 with two one-year extension options, subject to certain conditions.

The Company has the option, based upon its consolidated leverage ratio, to have draws under the facility priced at either the Alternate Base Rate (as described below) plus 0.60% to 1.20% or at adjusted LIBOR plus 1.60% to 2.20% . The Alternate Base Rate is defined in the credit facility agreement as a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the fluctuating annual rate of interest announced from time to time by the lender as its “prime rate” in effect on such day, (b) the federal funds effective rate in effect on such day plus 0.5% of 1% and (c) the Adjusted LIBOR for a one-month interest period on such day plus 1% . Adjusted LIBOR refers to LIBOR multiplied by the statutory reserve rate, as determined by the Federal Reserve System of the United States. The credit agreement requires the Company to pay an unused fee per annum of 0.25% if the unused balance of the credit facility exceeds or is equal to 50% of the available facility or a fee per annum of 0.15% if the unused balance of the credit facility is less than 50% of the available facility.

The credit agreement provides for quarterly interest payments for each Alternate Base Rate loan and periodic payments for each adjusted LIBOR loan, based upon the applicable LIBOR loan period, with all principal outstanding being due on the maturity date in July 2016. The credit agreement also contains two one-year extension options, subject to certain conditions. The credit facility may be prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to prior notice to the lender. In the event of a default, the lender has the right to terminate their obligations under the credit agreement and to accelerate the payment on any unpaid principal amount of all outstanding loans.

The credit agreement requires the Company to meet certain financial covenants, including the maintenance of certain financial ratios (such as specified debt to equity and debt service coverage ratios) as well as the maintenance of a minimum net worth. As of March 31, 2015 , the Company was in compliance with the financial covenants under the credit agreement.

As of March 31, 2015 , total outstanding advances under the credit facility were $633.4 million , including advances of £239.1 million ( $354.7 million based upon an exchange rate of $1.48 to £1.00 , as of the date of advance), €238.4 million ( $258.7 million based upon an exchange rate of $1.09 to €1.00 , as of the date of advance) and $20.0 million . The foreign currency advances were used to fund individual investments in the respective local currency. The US dollar advance was used to acquire investments and support general obligations of the Company. A total of $446.6 million of these advances were designated as net investment hedges with changes in value recorded through cumulative translation adjustment, but $1.4 million in over hedge occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2015 . In addition, $231.6 million in advances were not designated as net investment hedges and, accordingly, the changes in value due to currency fluctuations are reflected in income. As of December 31, 2014 , total outstanding advances under the credit facility were $659.3 million , including advances of £169.8 million ( $263.8 million based upon an exchange rate of $1.55 to £1.00 , as of the date of advance) and €128.0 million ( $155.6 million based upon an exchange rate of $1.22 to €1.00 ). The unused borrowing capacity, based on the value of the borrowing base properties as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , was $71.6 million and $20.7 million , respectively.

Note 6 — Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company determines fair value based on quoted prices when available or through the use of alternative approaches, such as discounting the expected cash flows using market interest rates commensurate with the credit quality and duration of the investment. This alternative approach also reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The guidance defines three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability.

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect the entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques.

The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. However, the Company expects that changes in classifications between levels will be rare.

Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with those derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of the Company's derivatives. As a result, the Company has determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The valuation of derivative instruments is determined using a discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, as well as observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated into the fair values to account for the Company's potential nonperformance risk and the performance risk of the counterparties.

As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company had investments in a real estate income fund that is traded in active market and therefore classified this investments as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy, with an aggregate fair value of $0.5 million and $0.5 million , respectively. The real estate income fund is managed by an affiliate of the Sponsor (see Note 10 — Related Party Transactions ). These investments are considered available-for-sale securities and therefore increases or decreases in the fair value of these investments are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) as a component of equity on the consolidated balance sheets unless the securities are considered to be other than temporarily impaired at which time the losses would be reclassified to expense.

The following table details the unrealized gains and losses on investment securities as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 :



(In thousands)	Cost		Gross Unrealized Gains		Gross Unrealized Losses			Fair Value
March 31, 2015	$	514	$	—	$	(14	)	$	500

A review of the fair value hierarchy classification is conducted on a quarterly basis. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy during the three months ended March 31, 2015 .

Financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis

The Company is required to disclose the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate value. The fair value of short-term financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, due from affiliates, accounts payable and distributions payable approximates their carrying value on the consolidated balance sheets due to their short-term nature.

Note 7 — Derivatives and Hedging Activities

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company may use derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, caps, options, floors and other interest rate derivative contracts, to hedge all or a portion of the interest rate risk associated with its borrowings. Certain foreign investments expose the Company to fluctuations of foreign interest rates and exchange rates. These fluctuations may impact the value of the Company’s cash receipts and payments in terms of the Company’s functional currency. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to protect the value or fix the amount of certain obligations in terms of its functional currency, the U.S. dollar.

GLOBAL NET LEASE, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

The principal objective of such arrangements is to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with the Company’s operating and financial structure as well as to hedge specific anticipated transactions. The Company does not intend to utilize derivatives for speculative or other purposes other than interest rate risk management. The use of derivative financial instruments carries certain risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these contractual arrangements are not able to perform under the agreements. To mitigate this risk, the Company only enters into derivative financial instruments with counterparties with high credit ratings and with major financial institutions with which the Company and its affiliates may also have other financial relationships. The Company does not anticipate that any such counterparties will fail to meet their obligations.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction impacts earnings. During 2015 , such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with variable-rate debt. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. The Company recorded losses of $2,000 and $0 of ineffectiveness in earnings during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 , respectively.

Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company's variable-rate debt. During the next 12 months , the Company estimates that an additional $3.2 million will be reclassified from other comprehensive income (loss) as an increase to interest expense.

As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

Net Investment Hedges

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on property investments in foreign countries which pay rental income, property related expenses and hold debt instruments in currencies other than its functional currency, the US dollar. The Company uses foreign currency derivatives including cross currency swaps to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign exchange rates on certain of its foreign investments. Cross currency swaps involve fixing the applicable exchange rate for delivery of a specified amount of foreign currency on specified dates.

For derivatives designated as net investment hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivatives are reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (outside of earnings) as part of the cumulative translation adjustment. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of the derivatives is recognized directly in earnings. Amounts are reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) into earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.

____________________________________

(1) Payments and obligations pursuant to these foreign currency swap agreements are guaranteed by the Company, ARC Global Holdco, LLC and the OP.

On February 4, 2015, the Company restructured some cross currency swaps and replaced its initial US dollar equity investment in certain foreign real estate investments with foreign currency debt. Foreign currency advances of €110.5 million and £68.5 million were drawn under the Company’s credit facility. The foreign currency debt creates a natural hedge against the original equity invested in the real estate investments, removing the need for the final cross currency swaps. The hedge instruments had been designated as net investment hedges through the date of the restructure. The settlement of the cross currency swap restructuring resulted in a gain of approximately $19.0 million , with $10.1 million in proceeds received and $8.9 million retained by the bank as a reduction in the credit facility. The gain will remain in the cumulative translation adjustment (CTA) until such time as the net investments are sold or substantially liquidated in accordance with ASC 830.

Non-designated Hedges

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in various foreign currencies against its functional currency, the US dollar. The Company uses foreign currency derivatives including currency forward and cross currency swap agreements to manage its exposure to fluctuations in GBP-USD and EUR-USD exchange rates. While these derivatives are hedging the fluctuations in foreign currencies, they do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements to be classified as hedging instruments. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated in hedging relationships are recorded directly in earnings and a gain of $4.7 million and $1.9 million was recognized for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and for the year ended December 31, 2014 , respectively.

As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company had the following outstanding derivatives that were not designated as hedges under qualifying hedging relationships.

Credit-risk-related Contingent Features

The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company either defaults or is capable of being declared in default on any of its indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations.

As of March 31, 2015 , the fair value of derivatives in a net liability position including accrued interest but excluding any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements was $6.5 million . As of March 31, 2015 , the Company has not posted any collateral related to these agreements and was not in breach of any agreement provisions. If the Company had breached any of these provisions, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at their aggregate termination value.

Note 8 — Common Stock

The Company had 179,634,854 and 177,933,175 shares of common stock outstanding, including unvested restricted shares and shares issued under the DRIP, and had received total proceeds of $1.8 billion and $1.8 billion as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively.

On October 5, 2012, the Company's board of directors ("the Board") authorized and the Company declared a distribution which is payable to stockholders of record each day during the applicable period at a rate equal to $0.00194520548 per day equivalent to a per annum yield of 7.10% based on $10.00 price per share of common stock. The distributions began to accrue on November 28, 2012, which was 30 days following the Company's initial property acquisition. The distributions are payable by the 5th day following each month end to stockholders of record at the close of business each day during the prior month. Distributions payments are dependent on the availability of funds. The board of directors may reduce the amount of distributions paid or suspend distribution payments at any time and therefore distributions payments are not assured.

Share Repurchase Program

The Board has adopted a Share Repurchase Program ("SRP") that enables stockholders to sell their shares to the Company. Under the SRP, stockholders may request that the Company repurchase all or any portion, subject to certain minimum amounts, of their shares on any business day, if such repurchase does not impair the Company's capital or operations. Since our inception through December 31, 2014 , 99,969 shares of common stock have been repurchased or requested to be repurchased at a weighted average price per share of $9.91 . During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , the Company repurchased 123,613 shares at a weighted average price per share of $9.74 . Since inception through March 31, 2015 , the Company in total has repurchased 223,582 shares of common stock.

If the Company's Advisor provides services in connection with the origination or refinancing of any debt that the Company obtains and uses to acquire properties or to make other permitted investments, or that is assumed, directly or indirectly, in connection with the acquisition of properties, the Company pays the Advisor a financing coordination fee equal to 0.75% of the amount available and/or outstanding under such financing, subject to certain limitations. Solely with respect to the Company's investment activities in Europe, the Service Provider is paid 50% of the financing coordination fees and the Advisor receives the remaining 50% , as set forth in the service provider agreement. Such fees are deducted from fees payable to the Advisor, pursuant to the service provider agreement.

In connection with providing strategic advisory services related to certain portfolio acquisitions, the Company has entered into arrangements in which the investment banking division of the Dealer Manager is paid a transaction fee of 0.25% of the Transaction Value for such portfolio acquisition transactions. Pursuant to such arrangements to date, the Transaction Value has been defined as: (i) the value of the consideration paid or to be paid for all the equity securities or assets in connection with the sale transaction or acquisition transaction (including consideration payable with respect to convertible or exchangeable securities and option, warrants or other exercisable securities and including dividends or distributions and equity security repurchases made in anticipation of or in connection with the sale transaction or acquisition transaction), or the implied value for all the equity securities or assets of the Company or acquisition target, as applicable, if a partial sale or purchase is undertaken, plus (ii) the aggregate value of any debt, capital lease and preferred equity security obligations (whether consolidated, off-balance sheet or otherwise) of the Company or acquisition target, as applicable, outstanding at the closing of the sale transaction or acquisition transaction), plus (iii) the amount of any fees, expenses and promote paid by the buyer(s) on behalf of the Company or the acquisition target, as applicable. Should the Dealer Manager provide strategic advisory services related to additional portfolio acquisition transactions, the Company will enter into new arrangements with the Dealer Manager on such terms as may be agreed upon between the two parties.

Prior to January 1, 2013, the Company paid the Advisor a monthly asset management fee equal to one-twelfth of 0.75% of the cost of investment portfolio assets (costs include the purchase price, acquisition expenses, capital expenditures and other customarily capitalized costs, but excluded acquisition fees). All or a portion of the asset management fee may have been waived or deferred at the sole discretion of the Company's board of directors (a) to the extent that FFO, as adjusted, during the six months ending on the last day of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the date that such asset management fee is payable, is less than the distributions declared with respect to such six month period or (b) for any other reason.

Effective January 1, 2013, the following were eliminated: (i) the reduction of the asset management fee to the extent, if any, that the Company's funds from operations, as adjusted, during the six months ending on the last calendar quarter immediately preceding the date the asset management fee was payable was less than the distributions declared with respect to such six month period and (ii) the payment of asset management fees in cash, shares or restricted stock grants, or any combination thereof to the Advisor. Instead, the Company issues (subject to periodic approval by the board of directors) to the Advisor performance-based restricted partnership units of the OP designated as "Class B units," which are intended to be profits interests and will vest, and no longer be subject to forfeiture, at such time as: (x) the value of the OP's assets plus all distributions made equals or exceeds the total amount of capital contributed by investors plus a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax, non-compounded annual return thereon (the "economic hurdle"); (y) any one of the following occurs: (1) the termination of the advisory agreement by an affirmative vote of a majority of the Company's independent directors without cause; (2) a listing; or (3) another liquidity event; and (z) the Advisor is still providing advisory services to the Company (the "performance condition"). Such Class B units will be forfeited immediately if: (a) the advisory agreement is terminated other than by an affirmative vote of a majority of the Company's independent directors without cause; or (b) the advisory agreement is terminated by an affirmative vote of a majority of the Company's independent directors without cause before the economic hurdle has been met.

The number of Class B units to be issued for each quarter is equal to: (i) the excess of (A) the product of (y) the cost of assets multiplied by (z) 0.1875% over (B) any amounts payable as an oversight fee (as described below) for such calendar quarter; divided by (ii) the value of one share of common stock as of the last day of such calendar quarter. When and if approved by the board of directors, the Class B units are issued to the Advisor quarterly in arrears pursuant to the terms of the limited partnership agreement of the OP. Pursuant to the service provider agreement 50.0% of the Class B units are assigned to the Service Provider, solely with respect to the Company's foreign investment strategy in Europe. As of March 31, 2015 , the Company did not consider achievement of the performance condition to be probable. The value of issued Class B units will be determined and expensed when the Company deems the achievement of the performance condition to be probable. The Advisor receives distributions on unvested Class B units equal to the distribution rate received on the Company's common stock. Such distributions on issued Class B units will continue to be expensed in the consolidated statements of operations until the performance condition is considered probable to occur. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , the board of directors approved the issuance of 1,020,580 Class B Units to the Advisor and the Service Provider in connection with this agreement , consisting of 506,237 units relating to the three months ended December 31, 2014 and 514,343 units relating to the three months ended March 31, 2015 . During the three months ended March 31, 2014 , the board of directors approved the issuance of 39,792 Class B Units to the Advisor and the Service Provider.

If the Property Manager or an affiliate provides property management and leasing services for properties owned by the Company, the Company pays fees equal to: (i) with respect to stand-alone, single-tenant net leased properties which are not part of a shopping center, 2.0% of gross revenues from the properties managed and (ii) with respect to all other types of properties, 4.0% of gross revenues from the properties managed.

For services related to overseeing property management and leasing services provided by any person or entity that is not an affiliate of the Property Manager, the Company pays the Property Manager an oversight fee equal to 1.0% of gross revenues of the property managed.

Solely with respect to the Company's investments in properties located in Europe, the Service Provider or other entity providing property management services with respect to such investments is paid: (i) with respect to single-tenant net leased properties which are not part of a shopping center, 1.75% of the gross revenues from such properties and (ii) with respect to all other types of properties, 3.5% of the gross revenues from such properties. The Property Manager is paid 0.25% of the gross revenues from European single-tenant net leased properties which are not part of a shopping center and 0.5% of the gross revenues from all other types of properties, reflecting a split of the oversight fee with the Service Provider or an affiliated entity providing European property management services. Such fees are deducted from fees payable to the Advisor, pursuant to the service provider agreement.

The Company reimburses the Advisor's costs of providing administrative services, subject to the limitation that the Company will not reimburse the Advisor for any amount by which the Company's operating expenses (including the asset management fee) at the end of the four preceding fiscal quarters exceeds the greater of (a) 2.0% of average invested assets and (b) 25.0% of net income other than any additions to reserves for depreciation, bad debt or other similar non-cash reserves and excluding any gain from the sale of assets for that period. Additionally, the Company reimburses the Advisor for personnel costs in connection with other services during the operational stage, in addition to paying an asset management fee; however, the Company does not reimburse the Advisor for personnel costs in connection with services for which the Advisor receives acquisition fees or real estate commissions. No reimbursement was incurred from the Advisor for providing services during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 .

The Company pays the Advisor an annual subordinated performance fee calculated on the basis of the Company's total return to stockholders, payable annually in arrears, such that for any year in which the Company's total return on stockholders' capital exceeds 6.0% per annum, the Advisor is entitled to 15.0% of the excess total return but not to exceed 10.0% of the aggregate total return for such year (which will take into account distributions and realized appreciation). This fee is payable only upon the sale of assets, distributions or other events which results in the Company's return on stockholders' capital exceeding 6.0% per annum. Solely with respect to the Company's investment activities in Europe, the Service Provider will be paid 50.0% of the annual subordinated performance fee payable in respect of such investments, and the Advisor or its affiliates will receive the remaining 50% , as set forth in the service provider agreement. No such amounts had been incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 .

In order to improve operating cash flows and the ability to pay distributions from operating cash flows, the Advisor may waive certain fees including asset management and property management fees. Because the Advisor may waive certain fees, cash flow from operations that would have been paid to the Advisor may be available to pay distributions to stockholders. The fees that may be forgiven are not deferrals and accordingly, will not be paid to the Advisor. In certain instances, to improve the Company's working capital, the Advisor may elect to absorb a portion of the Company's general and administrative costs or property operating expenses. These absorbed costs are presented net in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 , there were no property operating and general administrative expenses absorbed by our Advisor.

Fees Paid in Connection with the Liquidation or Listing of the Company's Real Estate Assets

The Company pays a brokerage commission to the Advisor or its affiliates on the sale of property, not to exceed the lesser of 2.0% of the contract sale price of the property and 50% of the total brokerage commission paid if a third party broker is also involved; provided, however, that in no event may the real estate commissions paid to the Advisor, its affiliates and unaffiliated third parties exceed the lesser of 6.0% of the contract sales price and a reasonable, customary and competitive real estate commission, in each case, payable to the Advisor if the Advisor or its affiliates, as determined by a majority of the independent directors, provided a substantial amount of services in connection with the sale. No such amounts have been incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 .

If a liquidity event occurs and the Company is not simultaneously listed on an exchange, the Company will pay a subordinated participation in the net sales proceeds of the sale of real estate assets of 15.0% of remaining net sale proceeds after return of capital contributions to investors plus payment to investors of an annual 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax non-compounded return on the capital contributed by investors. The Company cannot assure that it will provide this 6.0% return but the Advisor will not be entitled to the subordinated participation in net sale proceeds unless the Company's investors have received a 6.0% cumulative non-compounded return on their capital contributions plus the return of capital. No such amounts have been incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 .

The Company will distribute a subordinated incentive listing distribution of 15.0% , payable in the form of a promissory note, of the amount by which the market value of all issued and outstanding shares of the Company's common stock plus distributions exceeds the aggregate capital contributed by investors plus an amount equal to a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax non-compounded annual return to investors. The Company cannot assure that it will provide this 6.0% return but the Advisor will not be entitled to the subordinated incentive listing fee unless investors have received a 6.0% cumulative, pre-tax non-compounded annual return on on capital contributions. No such distributions have been paid during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 . Neither the Advisor nor any of its affiliates can receive both the subordination participation in the net proceeds and the subordinated listing distribution.

Solely with respect to the Company's properties in Europe, the Service Provider has the right to receive up to 50% of subordinated participation in the net sales proceeds of the sale of real estate assets and 50% of subordinated incentive listing distribution relating to such properties. No such fees have been incurred during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 .

Under various agreements, the Company has engaged or will engage the Advisor, its affiliates and entities under common control with the Advisor to provide certain services that are essential to the Company, including asset management services, supervision of the management and leasing of properties owned by the Company, asset acquisition and disposition decisions, the sale of shares of the Company's common stock available for issue, transfer agency services, as well as other administrative responsibilities for the Company including accounting services and investor relations.

As a result of these relationships, the Company is dependent upon the Advisor and its affiliates. In the event that these companies are unable to provide the Company with the respective services, the Company will be required to find alternative providers of these services.

Note 12 — Share-Based Compensation

Stock Option Plan

The Company has a stock option plan (the "Plan") which authorizes the grant of nonqualified stock options to the Company's independent directors, officers, advisors, consultants and other personnel, subject to the absolute discretion of the board of directors and the applicable limitations of the Plan. The exercise price for all stock options granted under the Plan during the IPO is the exercise price for stock options granted to the independent directors which will be equal to the fair market value of a share on the last business day preceding the annual meeting of stockholders. A total of 0.5 million shares have been authorized and reserved for issuance under the Plan. As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , no stock options were issued under the Plan.

Restricted Share Plan

The Company has an employee and director incentive restricted share plan (the "RSP"), which provides for the automatic grant of 3,000 restricted shares of common stock to each of the independent directors, without any further action by the Company's board of directors or the stockholders, on the date of initial election to the board of directors and on the date of each annual stockholder's meeting. Restricted stock issued to independent directors will vest over a five -year period following the first anniversary of the date of grant in increments of 20% per annum. The RSP provides the Company with the ability to grant awards of restricted shares to the Company's directors, officers and employees (if the Company ever has employees), employees of the Advisor and its affiliates, employees of entities that provide services to the Company, directors of the Advisor or of entities that provide services to the Company, certain consultants to the Company and the Advisor and its affiliates or to entities that provide services to the Company. The fair market value of any shares of restricted stock granted under the Company's restricted share plan, together with the total amount of acquisition fees, acquisition expense reimbursements, asset management fees, financing coordination fees, disposition fees and subordinated distributions by the operating partnership payable to the Advisor (or its assignees), may not exceed (a) 6% of all properties' aggregate gross contract purchase price, (b) as determined annually, the greater, in the aggregate, of 2% of average invested assets and 25% of net income other than any additions to reserves for depreciation, bad debt or other similar non-cash reserves and excluding any gain from the sale of assets for that period, (c) disposition fees, if any, of up to 3% of the contract sales price of all properties that the Company sells and (d) 15% of remaining net sales proceeds after return of capital contributions plus payment to investors of a 6% cumulative, pre-tax, non-compounded return on the capital contributed by investors. Additionally, the total number of shares of common stock granted under the RSP may not exceed 5.0% of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock and in any event will not exceed 7.5 million shares (as such number may be adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, combinations and similar events).

Restricted share awards entitle the recipient to receive shares of common stock from the Company under terms that provide for vesting over a specified period of time. Such awards would typically be forfeited with respect to the unvested shares upon the termination of the recipient's employment or other relationship with the Company. Restricted shares may not, in general, be sold or otherwise transferred until restrictions are removed and the shares have vested. Holders of restricted shares may receive cash distributions prior to the time that the restrictions on the restricted shares have lapsed. Any distributions payable in shares of common stock shall be subject to the same restrictions as the underlying restricted shares.

The following table reflects restricted share award activity for the three months ended March 31, 2015 :



	Number of Restricted Shares	Weighted-Average Issue Price
Unvested, December 31, 2014	14,400	$	9.00
Granted	3,000	9.00
Vested	—	9.00
Unvested, March 31, 2015	17,400	$	9.00

The fair value of the restricted shares is being expensed over the vesting period of five years . Compensation expense related to restricted stock was approximately $8,000 and $8,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and is recorded as general and administrative expense in the accompanying statements of operations.

Other Share-Based Compensation

The Company may issue common stock in lieu of cash to pay fees earned by the Company's directors at each director's election. There are no restrictions on the shares issued since these payments in lieu of cash relate to fees earned for services performed. There were no such shares of common stock issued in lieu of cash during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 .

Note 13 — Net Income (Loss) Per Share

The following is a summary of the basic and diluted net income (loss) per share computation for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 :



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2015		2014
Net income (loss) (in thousands)	$	25,855	$	(16,349	)
Basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding	179,156,462		37,602,790
Basic and diluted net income (loss) per share	$	0.14	$	(0.43	)

As listed in the table below, the Company had potentially dilutive securities as of March 31, 2015 and 2014 . The Class B units are subject to performance vesting conditions which have not yet been met and, accordingly, are not included in computation of diluted earnings per share. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 , a pro rata portion of the unvested restricted stock and the OP units would be included in the computation on diluted net income per share, however, their inclusion was negligible. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 , the unvested restricted stock and OP units were excluded from the calculation of diluted income (loss) per share as the effect would have been antidilutive.



	March 31,
	2015	2014
Unvested restricted stock	17,400	16,200
OP Units	22	22
Class B units	1,726,323	63,184
Total common share equivalents	1,743,745	79,406

(1) Contract purchase price, excluding acquisition related costs, based on the exchange rate at the time of purchase.

Listing on NYSE and Name Change

The Company announced that it expects its common stock will be listed on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the symbol “GNL” between May 15, 2015 and May 22, 2015 (the “Listing”). In connection with the Listing, on May 5, 2015, the Company amended its charter to change the Company’s name to “Global Net Lease, Inc.”

The Company believes the Tender Offer will augment the options available to stockholders in connection with the Listing by allowing them to tender all or a portion of their shares in the Tender Offer at a fixed price. If the Tender Offer is oversubscribed, proration of the tendered shares will be determined promptly after the Tender Offer expires. The Company intends to fund the Tender Offer with cash on hand and funds available under its existing credit facility. The Company expects to commence the Tender Offer on the date of the Listing and the Tender Offer will expire on the 20th business day thereafter (unless the Company extends the offer). The Tender Offer will be subject to certain conditions.

Amendment and Suspension of Distribution Reinvestment Program

The Company notified its stockholders that, pursuant to the terms of the DRIP, the Board approved an amendment to the DRIP (the “DRIP Amendment”) enabling the Company to suspend the DRIP. Subsequently, pursuant to the DRIP Amendment, the Board approved the suspension of the DRIP, effective immediately. The final issuance of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the DRIP occurred in connection with the Company’s April distribution which was paid on May 1, 2015 .

Termination of Share Repurchase Program

In connection with the Listing and the Tender Offer, and pursuant to the requirements of applicable tender offer rules on April 4, 2015 , the Board approved the termination of the Company’s SRP.

•

effective as of the date upon which the conditions set forth in Article XIII (Amendments)(ii) of the Company’s Articles of Amendment and Restatement are satisfied, the Advisory Agreement will be automatically renewed annually for additional one-year periods, unless the Company or Advisor elects not renew the Advisory Agreement through the provision of 60-days’ written notice prior to the then current annual renewal term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Advisory Agreement may be

terminated at any time upon 45-days’ written notice by the Advisor for good reason or upon a change of control or by the independent directors of the company with cause.

Amended and Restated Incentive Restricted Share Plan

On April 8, 2015, the Board adopted an Amended and Restated Incentive Restricted Share Plan (the “A/R Restricted Share Plan”) that replaced in its entirety the RSP. The A/R Restricted Share Plan amended the terms of the RSP as follows:


•	it increased the number of shares of Company capital stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Capital Stock”), available for awards thereunder from 5% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Capital Stock on a fully diluted basis at any time, to 10% of the Company’s outstanding shares of Capital Stock on a fully diluted basis at any time;


•	it removed the fixed amount of shares that were automatically granted to the Company’s independent directors; and


•	it added restricted stock units (including dividend equivalent rights thereon) as a permitted form of award.

Multi-Year Outperformance Agreement

The Board has approved the general terms of a Multi-Year Outperformance Agreement (the “OPP”) to be entered into with the Company, Global Net Lease Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “OP”), and the Advisor, in connection with the Listing.

Under the OPP, the Advisor will be issued LTIP units in the OP with a maximum award value equal to 5% of the Company’s market capitalization (the “OPP Cap”) on the date of Listing (the “Effective Date”). The LTIP units will be structured as profits interests in the Operating Partnership. The Advisor will be eligible to earn a number of LTIP units with a value equal to a portion of the OPP Cap based on the Company’s achieving certain levels of total return to its stockholders (“Total Return”) on both an absolute basis and a relative basis measured against a peer group of companies, as set forth below, for a three-year period commencing on the Effective Date (the “Performance Period”). In addition, Advisor may “lock-in” a portion of the OPP Cap based on the attainment of pro-rata performance hurdles, as set forth below, during each 12-month period in the Performance Period (each such period, a “One Year Period” and during the initial 24-month period of the Performance Period (the “Two-Year Period”). Each of the relevant performance periods will be evaluated separately based on performance through the end of the relevant performance period.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying consolidated financial statements of Global Net Lease, Inc. and the notes thereto. As used herein, the terms "Company," "we," "our" and "us" refer to Global Net Lease, Inc., a Maryland corporation, including, as required by context, to Global Net Lease Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, which we refer to as the "OP," and to its subsidiaries. The Company is externally managed by Global Net Lease Advisors, LLC (our "Advisor"), a Delaware limited liability company.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements including statements regarding the intent, belief or current expectations of the Company and members of our management team, as well as the assumptions on which such statements are based, and generally are identified by the use of words such as "may," "will," "seeks," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "plans," "intends," "should" or similar expressions. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such 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 forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law.

The following are some of the risks 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:

•

All of our executive officers are also officers of our Advisor 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 created 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 investment programs and us. These conflicts could result in unanticipated actions.

•

Because investment opportunities that are suitable for us may also be suitable for other American Realty Capital- advised investment programs, our Advisor and its affiliates face conflicts of interest relating to the purchase of properties and other investments and such conflicts may not be resolved in our favor, meaning that we could invest in less attractive assets, which could reduce the investment return to our stockholders.


•	Although we intend to list our shares of common stock on the NYSE, there can be no assurance that our shares of common stock will be listed. No public market currently exists, or may exist, for shares of our common stock and our shares are, and may continue to be, illiquid.


•	We may be unable to pay or 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 depend on tenants for our rental revenue and, accordingly, our rental revenue is dependent upon the success and economic viability of our tenants.


•	Increases in interest rates could increase the amount of our debt payments and limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholders.


•	We may not generate cash flows sufficient to pay distributions to our stockholders, as such, we may be forced to borrow at unfavorable rates or depend on our Advisor to waive reimbursement of certain expense and fees to fund our operations. There is no assurance that our Advisor will waive reimbursement of expenses or fees.


•	Any of these distributions may reduce the amount of capital we ultimately invest in properties and other permitted investments and negatively impact the value of our common stock.


•	We have not generated cash flows sufficient to pay our distributions to stockholders, as such we may be forced to borrow at unattractive rates or depend on our Advisor to waive reimbursement of certain expenses and fees to fund our operations. There is no assurance that our Advisor will waive reimbursement of expenses or fees.


•	We are subject to risks associated with our international investments, including risks associated with compliance with and changes 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 markets of the United States of America and Europe from time to time.


•	We may fail to qualify, or continue to qualify, to be treated as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for U.S. federal income tax purposes, which would result in higher taxes, may adversely affect operations and would reduce our NAV and cash available for distributions.


•	We may be deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("the Investment Company Act"), and thus subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act.

Table of Contents


•	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 international hostilities, acts of terrorism, and changes in conditions of United States or international lending, capital and financing markets.

Overview

We were incorporated on July 13, 2011 , as a Maryland corporation that qualified to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2013. On April 20, 2012, we commenced our initial public offering ("IPO" or "offering") on a "reasonable best efforts" basis of up to 150.0 million shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, at a price of $10.00 per share, subject to certain volume and other discounts, pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-11, as amended from time to time (File No. 333-177563 ) (the "Registration Statement") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Registration Statement also covered up to an additional 25.0 million shares of common stock pursuant to a distribution reinvestment plan (the "DRIP") under which our common stockholders could elect to have their distributions reinvested in additional shares of our common stock. On March 19, 2014, our board of directors approved the extension of our IPO to April 20, 2015, provided that the offering will be terminated if all 150.0 million shares of our common stock are sold before such date. On June 13, 2014, we announced the reallocation 23.8 million shares which represented all remaining unsold shares available pursuant to the DRIP. On June 17, 2014, we registered an additional 25.0 million shares to be issued under the DRIP pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-196829 ). On April 7, 2015 , in anticipation of the listing of our shares of common stock on the New York Stock Exchange (the "Listing"), we announced the suspension of the DRIP. On May 7, 2015, the Company filed a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement to deregister the unsold shares registered under the Registration Statement.

Our IPO closed on June 30, 2014 . As of March 31, 2015 , we had 179,634,854 shares of stock outstanding, including unvested restricted shares and had received total gross proceeds from the IPO of 1.8 billion , including shares issued under the DRIP. As of March 31, 2015 , the aggregate value of all the common stock outstanding was $1.8 billion based on a per share value of $10.00 (or $9.50 for shares issued under the DRIP).

We were formed to primarily acquire a diversified portfolio of commercial properties, with an emphasis on sale-leaseback transactions involving single tenant net-leased commercial properties. Our primary geographic target will be the United States, although up to 40% of our portfolio may consist of properties purchased in Europe with a potential additional 10% allocation of properties elsewhere internationally. All such properties may be acquired and operated by us alone or jointly with another party. We may also originate or acquire first mortgage loans secured by real estate. We purchased our first property and commenced active operations in October 2012. As of March 31, 2015 , we owned 309 properties consisting of 16.4 million rentable square feet, which were 100% leased, with a weighted average remaining lease term of 11.6 years. 257 of these properties are located in the United States and Puerto Rico with an average remaining lease term of 10.5 years, 40 of these properties are located in the United Kingdom with an average remaining lease term of 15.5 years and 12 of these properties are located in continental Europe, with an average remaining lease term of 12.1 years.

We have no direct employees. Our Advisor has been retained to manage the Company's affairs on a day-to-day basis. The properties are managed and leased by Global Net Lease Properties, LLC (the "Property Manager"). Realty Capital Securities, LLC (the "Dealer Manager") serves as the dealer manager of the IPO. The Advisor, Property Manager, Special Limited Partner and Dealer Manager are under common control with the parent of the Sponsor, as a result of which they are related parties, and may have received or will receive compensation, fees and expense reimbursements for services related to the IPO and for the investment and management of the Company's assets. These entities received or will receive fees, distributions and other compensation during the offering, acquisition, operational and liquidation stages. The Advisor has entered into a service provider agreement with Moor Park Capital Partners LLP (the "Service Provider"). The Service Provider is not affiliated with the Company, the Advisor or the Sponsor. Pursuant to the service provider agreement, the Service Provider provides, subject to the Advisor's oversight, certain real estate related services, as well as sourcing and structuring of investment opportunities, performance of due diligence, and arranging debt financing and equity investment syndicates, solely with respect to investments in Europe. Pursuant to the service provider agreement, 50.0% of the fees payable by the Company to the Advisor and a percentage of the fees paid to the Property Manager are paid or assigned to the Service Provider, solely with respect to the Company's foreign investments in Europe. Such fees are deducted from fees paid to the Advisor.

Significant Accounting Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies

Set forth below is a summary of the significant accounting estimates and critical accounting policies that management believes are important to the preparation of our financial statements. Certain of our accounting estimates are particularly important for an understanding of our financial position and results of operations and require the application of significant judgment by our management. As a result, these estimates are subject to a degree of uncertainty. These significant accounting estimates and critical accounting policies include:

Offering and Related Costs

Offering and related costs include all expenses incurred in connection with our IPO. Offering costs (other than selling commissions and the Dealer Manager fees) include costs that may be paid by the Advisor, the Dealer Manager or their affiliates on our behalf. These costs include but are not limited to (i) legal, accounting, printing, mailing, and filing fees; (ii) escrow service related fees; (iii) reimbursement of the Dealer Manager for amounts it may pay to reimburse the bona fide diligence expenses of broker-dealers; and (iv) reimbursement to the Advisor for a portion of the costs of its employees and other costs in connection with preparing supplemental sales materials and related offering activities. We are obligated to reimburse the Advisor or its affiliates, as applicable, for organization and offering costs paid by them on our behalf, provided that the Advisor is obligated to reimburse us to the extent organization and offering costs (excluding selling commissions and the Dealer Manager fee) incurred by us in our offering exceed 1.5% of gross offering proceeds in the IPO. As a result, these costs are only our liability to the extent aggregate selling commissions, the dealer manager fee and other organization and offering costs do not exceed 11.5% of the gross proceeds determined at the end of the IPO.

Revenue Recognition

Our revenues, which are derived primarily from rental income, include rents that each tenant pays in accordance with the terms of each lease reported on a straight-line basis over the initial term of the lease. Since many of our leases provide for rental increases at specified intervals, straight-line basis accounting requires us to record a receivable, and include in revenues unbilled rent receivables that we will only receive if the tenant makes all rent payments required through the expiration of the initial term of the lease. We defer the revenue related to lease payments received from tenants in advance of their due dates.

As of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , the Company included cumulative straight line rents receivable in Prepaid expenses and other assets in the balance sheet of $12.8 million and $8.7 million , respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 , the Company’s rental revenue included impacts of unbilled rental revenue of $4.4 million and $0.6 million respectively, to adjust contractual rent to straight line rent.

We continually review receivables related to rent and unbilled rent receivables and determine collectability by taking into consideration the tenant's payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. In the event that the collectability of a receivable is in doubt, we record an increase in our allowance for uncollectible accounts or record a direct write-off of the receivable in our consolidated statements of operations.

As of March 31, 2015 , nine of our leases for properties in U.S and foreign countries contain upward adjustments to fair market value every five years or contain capped indexed escalation provisions, but there can be no assurance that future leases on properties in foreign countries will contain such provisions or that such provisions will protect us from all potential adverse effects of inflation.

Cost recoveries from tenants are included in operating expense reimbursement in the period the related costs are incurred, as applicable.

Investments in Real Estate

Investments in real estate are recorded at cost. Improvements and replacements are capitalized when they extend the useful life of the asset. Costs of repairs and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of up to 40 years for buildings, 15 years for land improvements, five years for fixtures and the shorter of the useful life or the remaining lease term for tenant improvements and leasehold interests.

The Company evaluates the inputs, processes and outputs of each asset acquired to determine if the transaction is a business combination or asset acquisition. If an acquisition qualifies as a business combination, the related transaction costs are recorded as an expense in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss. If an acquisition qualifies as an asset acquisition, the related transaction costs are generally capitalized and subsequently amortized over the useful life of the acquired assets.

In business combinations, the Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets or liabilities based on their respective fair values. Tangible assets may include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements. Intangible assets may include the value of in-place leases and above- and below- market leases. In addition, any assumed mortgages receivable or payable and any assumed or issued noncontrolling interests are recorded at their estimated fair values.

Table of Contents

The Company is required to make subjective assessments as to the useful lives of the Company's properties for purposes of determining the amount of depreciation to record on an annual basis with respect to the Company's investments in real estate. These assessments have a direct impact on the Company's net income because if the Company were to shorten the expected useful lives of the Company's investments in real estate, the Company would depreciate these investments over fewer years, resulting in more depreciation expense and lower net income on an annual basis.

The Company is required to present the operations related to properties that have been sold or properties that are intended to be sold as discontinued operations in the statement of operations for all periods presented. Properties that are intended to be sold are to be designated as “held for sale” on the consolidated balance sheet.

The Company evaluates the lease accounting for each new property acquired with existing or new lease and reviews for any capital lease criterias. A lease is classified by a tenant as a capital lease if the significant risks and rewards of ownership are considered to reside with the tenant. This situation is generally considered to be met if, among other things, the non-cancelable lease term is more than 75% of the useful life of the asset or if the present value of the minimum lease payments equals 90% or more of the leased property’s fair value at lease inception.

Impairment of Long Lived Assets

When circumstances indicate the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable, the Company reviews the asset for impairment. This review is based on an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows, excluding interest charges, expected to result from the property’s use and eventual disposition. These estimates consider factors such as expected future operating income, market and other applicable trends and residual value, as well as the effects of leasing demand, competition and other factors. If impairment exists due to the inability to recover the carrying value of a property, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value of the property for properties to be held and used. For properties held for sale, the impairment loss is the adjustment to fair value less estimated cost to dispose of the asset. These assessments have a direct impact on net income because recording an impairment loss results in an immediate negative adjustment to net income.

Purchase Price Allocation

The Company allocates the purchase price of acquired properties to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired based on their respective fair values. Tangible assets include land, land improvements, buildings, fixtures and tenant improvements on an as-if vacant basis. The Company utilizes various estimates, processes and information to determine the as-if vacant property value. Estimates of value are made using customary methods, including data from appraisals, comparable sales, discounted cash flow analysis and other methods. Amounts allocated to land, land improvements, buildings and fixtures are based on cost segregation studies performed by independent third parties or on the Company's analysis of comparable properties in the Company's portfolio. Identifiable intangible assets include amounts allocated to acquire leases for above- and below-market lease rates, the value of in-place leases, and the value of customer relationships, as applicable.

Factors considered in the analysis of the in-place lease intangibles include an estimate of carrying costs during the expected lease-up period for each property, taking into account current market conditions and costs to execute similar leases. In estimating carrying costs, the Company includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at contract rates during the expected lease-up period, which typically ranges from 12 to 18 months . The Company also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal and other related expenses.

Above-market and below-market lease values for acquired properties are initially recorded based on the present value (using a discount rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to each in-place lease and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for each corresponding in-place lease, measured over a period equal to the remaining term of the lease for above-market leases and the remaining initial term plus the term of any below-market fixed rate renewal options for below-market leases. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of base rental revenue over the remaining terms of the respective leases, and the capitalized below-market lease values are amortized as an increase to base rental revenue over the remaining initial terms plus the terms of any below-market fixed rate renewal options of the respective leases. If a tenant with a below market rent renewal does not renew, any remaining unamortized amount will be taken into income at that time.

The aggregate value of intangible assets related to customer relationship, as applicable, is measured based on the Company's evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and the Company's overall relationship with the tenant. Characteristics considered by the Company in determining these values include the nature and extent of its existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals, among other factors.

The value of customer relationship intangibles is amortized to expense over the initial term and any renewal periods in the respective leases, but in no event does the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. If a tenant terminates its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and customer relationship intangibles is charged to expense.

Table of Contents

In making estimates of fair values for purposes of allocating purchase price, the Company utilizes a number of sources, including independent appraisals that may be obtained in connection with the acquisition or financing of the respective property and other market data. The Company also considers information obtained about each property as a result of the Company's pre-acquisition due diligence in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired and intangible liabilities assumed.

Derivative Instruments

The Company may use derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps, caps, options, floors and other interest rate derivative contracts, to hedge all or a portion of the interest rate risk associated with its borrowings. Certain of the Company's foreign operations expose the Company to fluctuations of foreign interest rates and exchange rates. These fluctuations may impact the value of the Company's cash receipts and payments in the Company's functional currency, the U.S. dollar. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to protect the value or fix the amount of certain obligations in terms of its functional currency.

The Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Derivatives may also be designated as hedges of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of its risk, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting.

The accounting for subsequent changes in the fair value of these derivatives depends on whether each has been designed and qualifies for hedge accounting treatment. If the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting treatment, any changes in the fair value of these derivative instruments is recognized immediately in gains (losses) on derivative instruments in the consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss. If the derivative is designated and qualifies for hedge accounting treatment the change in the estimated fair value of the derivative is recorded in other comprehensive income (loss) to the extent that it is effective. Any ineffective portion of a derivative's change in fair value will be immediately recognized in earnings.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements (Pending Adoption)

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued revised guidance relating to revenue recognition. Under the revised guidance, an entity is required to recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The revised guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted under GAAP. The revised guidance allows entities to apply the full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method upon adoption. In April 2015, the FASB proposed a one-year delay of the revised guidance, although entities will be allowed to early adopt the guidance as of the original effective date. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the new guidance.

Results of Operations

Comparison of Three Months Ended March 31, 2015 to Three Months Ended March 31, 2014

Rental Income

Rental income was $47.4 million and $7.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 , respectively. The increase in rental income was driven by our acquisition of 259 properties since March 31, 2014 , for an aggregate purchase price of $1,921.3 million , as of the respective acquisition dates.

Operating Expense Reimbursements

Operating expense reimbursements were $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 . Our lease agreements generally require tenants to pay all property operating expenses, in addition to base rent. Some limited property operating expenses are absorbed by the Company.

Foreign Currency and Interest Rate Impact on Operations

There were minimal gains or (losses) on foreign currency for the three months ended March 31, 2015, reflecting the limited effect of day to day movements in foreign currency exchange rates. A gain on foreign currency of $6,000 was realized for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The gains on derivative instruments for the three months ended March 31, 2015 of $4.2 million reflects the positive impact from foreign currency and interest rate hedge instruments used to protect the investment portfolio from adverse currency and interest rate movements. A loss on derivative instruments of $79,000 was realized for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The gains on hedging instrument deemed ineffective for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $1.4 million which relates to the mark-to-mark of a portion of the foreign currency draws designated as net investment hedges which were deemed to be an over-hedge of our European real estate portfolio for the quarter. There were no corresponding gains or (losses) for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

The gains on non-functional foreign currency advance that were not designated as net invest hedges for the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $8.9 million. There were no corresponding gains or (losses) for the three months ended March 31, 2014.

Cash Flows for Three Months Ended March 31, 2015

During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , net cash provided by operating activities was $34.5 million . The level of cash flows provided by operating activities is driven by the volume of acquisition activity, related rental income received, and the amount of borrowings outstanding during the period and the timing of interest payments on those borrowings. Cash flows provided in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2015 also included $1.1 million of acquisition and transaction related costs.

Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2015 was $30.3 million , primarily related to our acquisition of 259 properties with an aggregate base purchase price of $1,921.3 million , which were partially funded with borrowings under our credit facility.

Net cash used in financing activities of $7.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2015 related to proceeds, net of receivables, from the issuance of common stock of $0.3 million , borrowings under credit facility of $251.6 million and net advances from affiliates of $1.6 million , partially offset by common stock repurchases of $1.3 million and repayments on credit facility of $231.1 million . Other payments included distributions to stockholders of $14.3 million .

Cash Flows for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2014

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 , net cash used in operating activities was $18.5 million . The level of cash flows used in or provided by operating activities is affected by the volume of acquisition activity, the timing of interest payments and the amount of borrowings outstanding during the period, as well as the receipt of scheduled rental payments. Cash flows used in operating activities during the three months ended March 31, 2014 included $16.5 million of acquisition and transaction related costs. Cash outflows included a net loss adjusted for non-cash items of $11.7 million (net loss of $16.3 million adjusted for non-cash items including depreciation and amortization of tangible and intangible real estate assets, amortization of deferred financing costs and share based compensation of $4.6 million) and an increase in prepaid expenses of $11.7 million primarily related to prepaid professional fees. These cash outflows were partially offset by an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $3.5 million related to professional fees and interest payable and an increase in deferred rent of $1.3 million .

Table of Contents

Net cash used in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2014 of $182.1 million, primarily related to our acquisition of 13 properties with an aggregate base purchase price of $311.0 million, were partially funded with mortgage notes payable of $94.0 million. Net cash used in investing activities also includes a deposit of $1.3 million on a potential future acquisition.

Net cash provided by financing activities of $468.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2014 related to proceeds, net of receivables, from the issuance of common stock of $518.7 million, partially offset by payments related to offering costs of $56.8 million, payments of deferred financing costs of $2.9 million, distributions to stockholders of $2.0 million and net advances from affiliates of $0.5 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2015 , we had cash of $76.3 million primarily from the net proceeds of our offering. Principal future demands on cash will include the purchase of additional properties or other investments in accordance with our investment strategy, payment of related acquisition costs, improvement costs, the payment of our operating and administrative expenses, continuing debt service obligations and distributions to our stockholders. Management expects that as our portfolio matures rental income from our properties should cover operating expenses and the payment of our monthly distribution.

Generally, we fund our acquisitions through a combination of cash with mortgage or other debt, but we also may acquire assets free and clear of permanent mortgage or other indebtedness. See Note 5 — Mortgage Notes Payable to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion. Other potential future sources of capital include proceeds from secured or unsecured financings from banks or other lenders, proceeds from public and private offerings, proceeds from the sale of properties and undistributed funds from operations.

As of March 31, 2015 we have a revolving credit facility that currently permits us to borrow up to $705.0 million . The initial maturity date of the credit facility is July 25, 2016. The credit facility also contains two one-year extension options, subject to certain conditions. See Note 4 — Revolving Credit Facility to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion of the terms and conditions of this facility.

As of March 31, 2015 , total outstanding advances under the credit facility were $633.4 million . As of December 31, 2014 , total outstanding advances under the credit facility were $659.3 million . The unused borrowing capacity, based on the value of the borrowing base properties as of March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , was $71.6 million and $20.7 million , respectively.

Under our charter, the maximum amount of our total indebtedness may not exceed 300% of our total "net assets" (as defined in our charter) as of the date of any borrowing, which is generally expected to be approximately 75% of the cost of our investments; however, we may exceed that limit if approved by a majority of our independent directors and disclosed to stockholders in our next quarterly report following such borrowing along with justification for exceeding such limit. This charter limitation, however, does not apply to individual real estate assets or investments.

Our current intention is to limit aggregate borrowings to 45% of the aggregate fair market value of our assets (calculated after the close of our offering and once we have invested substantially all the proceeds of our offering), unless borrowing a greater amount is approved by a majority of our independent directors and disclosed to stockholders in our next quarterly report following such borrowing along with justification for borrowing such a greater amount. This limitation does not apply to individual real estate assets or investments. At the date of acquisition of each asset, we anticipate that the cost of investment for such asset will be substantially similar to its fair market value, which will enable us to satisfy our requirements under our charter. However, subsequent events, including changes in the fair market value of our assets, could result in our exceeding these limits. As of March 31, 2015 , we had secured mortgage notes payable of $261.9 million and outstanding advances under our credit facility of $633.4 million . Our secured debt leverage ratio was 37.0% (total secured debt as a percentage of total purchase price of real estate investments) as of March 31, 2015 .

We intend to maintain 5% of our NAV in excess of $1 billion in liquid assets that can be liquidated more readily than properties. However, our stockholders should not expect that we will maintain liquid assets at or above these levels. To the extent that we maintain borrowing capacity under a line of credit, such available amount will be included in calculating our liquid assets. The Advisor will consider various factors in determining the amount of liquid assets we should maintain, including but not limited to our receipt of proceeds from sales of additional shares, our cash flow from operations, available borrowing capacity under a line of credit, if any, our receipt of proceeds from any asset sale, and the use of cash to fund repurchases. The Board will review the amount and sources of liquid assets on a quarterly basis.

Our Board adopted an SRP that enabled stockholders to sell shares back to us under limited circumstances. At the time a stockholder requests a repurchase, we may, subject to certain conditions, repurchase the shares presented for repurchase for cash to the extent we have sufficient funds available to fund such purchase. Since our inception through December 31, 2013, no shares of common stock have been repurchased or requested to be repurchased. During 2014, we acquired 99,969 shares at a weighted average price per share of $9.91 . During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , the Company repurchased 123,613 shares at a weighted average price per share of $9.74 . Since inception through March 31, 2015 , the Company in total has repurchased 223,582 shares of common stock. The Company terminated its SRP in April 2015.

I n connection with the Listing, the Company intends to commence an offer to purchase up to $125.0 million of shares of common stock its stockholders at a price of $10.50 per share (the “Tender Offer”), net to the tendering stockholders in cash, less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest. The Company intends to fund the Tender Offer with approximately $25.0 million of cash and approximately $100.0 million of borrowings under its credit facility.

In addition, in April 2015 the Company suspended its Distribution Reinvestment Program (DRIP) and terminated its Share Repurchase Program (SRP). The Company has enjoyed high participation in DRIP and its suspension will result in higher monthly cash distribution payments which will be funded from cash earned from the investment portfolio. The termination of SRP will have a positive but immaterial impact for liquidity purposes.

Funds from Operations and Modified Funds from Operations

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 and 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 policy described above.

The historical accounting convention used for real estate assets requires straight-line depreciation of buildings and improvements, which implies that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time, especially if such assets are not adequately maintained or repaired and renovated as required by relevant circumstances and/or is requested or required by lessees for operational purposes in order to maintain the value disclosed. We believe that, since 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 may be less informative. Additionally, we believe it is appropriate to disregard impairment charges, as this is a fair value adjustment that is largely based on market fluctuations and assessments regarding general market conditions which can change over time. An asset will only be evaluated for impairment if certain impairment indicators exist and if the carrying, or book value, exceeds the total estimated undiscounted future cash flows (including net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and any other ancillary cash flows at a property or group level under GAAP) from such asset. Determinations of whether impairment charges have been incurred are based partly on anticipated operating performance, because estimated undiscounted future cash flows from a property, including estimated future net rental and lease revenues, net proceeds on the sale of the property, and certain other ancillary cash flows, are taken into account in determining whether an impairment charge has been incurred. While impairment charges are excluded from the calculation of FFO as described above, because impairments are based on estimated undiscounted future cash flows and the relatively limited term of our operations, it could be difficult to recover any impairment charges.

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 and impairments, 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 and modified funds from operations ("MFFO"), 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 and MFFO measures and the adjustments to GAAP in calculating FFO and MFFO.

Table of Contents

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. Management believes these fees and expenses do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. Publicly registered, non-listed REITs typically have a significant amount of acquisition activity and are substantially more dynamic during their initial years of investment and operation. We are using the proceeds raised in our offering to, among other things, acquire properties. We intend to begin the process of achieving a liquidity event (i.e., listing of our common stock on a national stock exchange, a merger or sale or another similar transaction) within three to five years of the completion of the offering. Thus, unless we raise, or recycle, a significant amount of capital after we complete our offering, we will not be continuing to purchase assets at the same rate as during our offering. Due to the above factors and other unique features of publicly registered, non-listed REITs, the Investment Program Association ("IPA"), an industry trade group, has standardized a measure known as MFFO, which the IPA has recommended as a supplemental measure for publicly registered non-listed REITs and which we believe to be another appropriate supplemental measure to reflect the operating performance of a non-listed REIT having the characteristics described above. MFFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under GAAP, and MFFO may not be a useful measure of the impact of long-term operating performance on value if we do not continue to purchase a significant amount of new assets after we complete our offering. We believe that, because MFFO excludes costs that we consider more reflective of investing activities and other non-operating items included in FFO and also excludes acquisition fees and expenses that affect our operations only in periods in which properties are acquired, MFFO can provide, on a going forward basis, an indication of the sustainability (that is, the capacity to continue to be maintained) of our operating performance after the period in which we are acquiring our properties and once our portfolio is seasoned. By providing MFFO, we believe we are presenting useful information that assists investors and analysts to better assess the sustainability of our operating performance after our IPO has been completed and our portfolio has been stabilized. We also believe that MFFO is a recognized measure of sustainable operating performance by the non-listed REIT industry.

We define MFFO, a non-GAAP measure, consistent with the IPA's Guideline 2010-01, Supplemental Performance Measure for Publicly Registered, Non-Listed REITs: Modified Funds from Operations ("Practice Guideline") issued by the IPA in November 2010. The Practice Guideline defines MFFO as FFO further adjusted for the following items, as applicable, included in the determination of GAAP net income: acquisition fees and expenses; amounts relating to deferred rent receivables and amortization of above and below market leases and liabilities (which are adjusted in order to reflect such payments from a GAAP accrual basis to a cash basis of disclosing the rent and lease payments); accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments; mark-to-market adjustments included in net income; gains or losses included in net income from the extinguishment or sale of debt, hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings where trading of such holdings is not a fundamental attribute of the business plan, unrealized gains or losses resulting from consolidation from, or deconsolidation to, equity accounting, and after adjustments for consolidated and unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures, with such adjustments calculated to reflect MFFO on the same basis. The accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums on debt investments, gains and losses on hedges, foreign exchange, derivatives or securities holdings, unrealized gains and losses resulting from consolidations, as well as other listed cash flow adjustments are adjustments made to net income in calculating the cash flows provided by operating activities and, in some cases, reflect gains or losses which are unrealized and may not ultimately be realized.

Our MFFO calculation complies with the IPA's Practice Guideline described above. In calculating MFFO, we exclude acquisition related expenses, amortization of above and below market leases, fair value adjustments of derivative financial instruments, deferred rent receivables and the adjustments of such items related to non-controlling interests. Under GAAP, acquisition fees and expenses are characterized as operating expenses in determining operating net income during the period in which the asset is acquired. These expenses are paid in cash by us, and therefore such funds will not be available to invest in other assets, pay operating expenses or fund distributions. MFFO may not be an accurate indicator of our operating performance, especially during periods in which properties are being acquired. MFFO that excludes such costs and expenses would only be comparable to that of non-listed REITs that have completed their acquisition activities and have similar operating characteristics as us. 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 of derivatives as items which are unrealized. We view both gains and losses from dispositions of assets and fair value adjustments of derivatives as items which are not reflective of ongoing operations and are therefore typically adjusted for when assessing operating performance. 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 distributions to our investors.

Table of Contents

We believe that our use of MFFO and the adjustments used to calculate it allow us to present our performance in a manner that reflects certain characteristics that are unique to non-listed REITs, such as a limited and defined acquisition period. By excluding expensed acquisition costs, the use of MFFO 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 MFFO provides useful supplemental information.

Presentation of this information is intended to provide useful information to investors as they compare the operating performance of different REITs, although it should be noted that not all REITs calculate FFO and MFFO the same way. Accordingly, comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. Furthermore, FFO and MFFO are not necessarily indicative of cash flow available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income (loss) or income (loss) from continuing operations as an indication of our performance, as an alternative to cash flows from operations as an indication of our liquidity, or indicative of funds available to fund our cash needs including our ability to make distributions to our stockholders. FFO and MFFO should be reviewed in conjunction with GAAP measurements as an indication of our performance. MFFO has limitations as a performance measure while an offering is ongoing and where the price of a share of common stock is a stated value. MFFO is useful in assisting management and investors in assessing the sustainability of operating performance in future operating periods.

Neither the SEC, NAREIT nor any other regulatory body has passed judgment on the acceptability of the adjustments that we use to calculate FFO or MFFO. In the future, the SEC, NAREIT or another regulatory body may decide to standardize the allowable adjustments across the non-listed REIT industry and we would have to adjust our calculation and characterization of FFO or MFFO.

The table below reflects the items deducted or added to net income in our calculation of FFO and MFFO for the period indicated:



	Three Months Ended

________________________________________________


⁽¹⁾	During 2014, we identified certain measurement adjustments that impacted the provisional accounting of our real estate investment purchase price allocations. As a result, depreciation and amortization period amounts have been adjusted to properly reflect such measurements.

⁽²⁾

In evaluating investments in real estate, management differentiates the costs to acquire the investment from the operations derived from the investment. Such information would be comparable only for non-listed REITs that have completed their acquisition activity and have other similar operating characteristics. By excluding expensed acquisition costs, management believes MFFO 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. Acquisition fees and expenses include payments to our Advisor or third parties. Acquisition fees and expenses under GAAP are considered operating expenses and as expenses included in the determination of net income and income from continuing operations, both of which are performance measures under GAAP. All paid and accrued acquisition fees and expenses will have negative effects on returns to investors, the potential for future distributions, and cash flows generated by us, unless earnings from operations or net sales proceeds from the disposition of properties are generated to cover the purchase price of the property, these fees and expenses and other costs related to the property.

⁽³⁾

Under GAAP, certain intangibles are accounted for at cost and reviewed at least annually for impairment, and certain intangibles are assumed to diminish predictably in value over time and amortized, similar to depreciation and amortization of other real estate related assets that are excluded from FFO. However, because real estate values and market lease rates historically rise or fall with market conditions, management believes that by excluding charges relating to amortization of these intangibles, MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the performance of the real estate.

⁽⁴⁾

Under GAAP, rental receipts are allocated to periods using various methodologies. This may result in income recognition that is significantly different than underlying contract terms. By adjusting for these items (to reflect such payments from a GAAP accrual basis to a cash basis of disclosing the rent and lease payments), MFFO provides useful supplemental information on the realized economic impact of lease terms and debt investments, providing insight on the contractual cash flows of such lease terms and debt investments, and aligns results with management's analysis of operating performance.

Distributions

On October 5, 2012, our board of directors authorized, and we declared, a distribution, which is calculated based on stockholders of record each day during the applicable period at a rate of $0.00194520548 per day, based on a price of $10.00 per share of common stock. Our distributions are payable by the 5th day following each month end to stockholders of record at the close of business each day during the prior month. Distribution payments are dependent on the availability of funds. Our board of directors may reduce the amount of distributions paid or suspended distribution payments at any time and therefore distribution payments are not assured. There is no assurance that we will continue to declare distributions at this rate.

The amount of distributions payable to our stockholders is determined by our board of directors and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for distribution, our financial condition, capital expenditure requirements, as applicable, requirements of Maryland law and annual distribution requirements needed to qualify and maintain our status as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Distribution payments are dependent on the availability of funds. Our board of directors may reduce the amount of distributions paid or suspend distribution payments at any time and therefore distribution payments are not assured. There is no assurance that we will continue to declare distributions at this rate.

The Distributions began to accrue on November 28, 2012, 30 days following our initial property acquisition. The first distribution was paid in December 2012. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , distributions paid to common stockholders were $31.3 million , inclusive of $17.0 million of distributions issued under the DRIP. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , cash used to pay distributions was generated from cash flows from operations, the net proceeds of our IPO and common stock issued under the DRIP.

The following table shows the sources for the payment of distributions to common stockholders for the period indicated:

Reaffirmation of Current Monthly Distributions and Change to Payment Dates

The Company intends to continue payment of monthly distributions at an annualized rate of $0.71 per share. Historically, the Company has calculated its monthly distribution based upon daily record and distribution declaration dates so that its stockholders would be entitled to be paid distributions beginning with the month in which their shares were purchased. Following the Listing, the Company will pay distributions on the 15th day of each month to stockholders of record as of close of business on the 8th day of such month.

As the Listing is anticipated to occur between May 15, 2015 and May 22, 2015 , the Company paid the April 2015 distribution on May 5, 2015 to stockholders of record at the close of business each day during the previous month (i.e., April). The Company anticipates that: (i) it will pay distributions for the period beginning May 1, 2015 through and including the day prior to the Listing to stockholders of record on the close of business each day during such period, such distribution to be paid within 5 days of the day of Listing; (ii) for the limited period commencing on the day of Listing through June 8, 2015 , the Company will pay a distribution of $0.001945060 per share per day on June 15, 2015 , to stockholders of record at the close of business on June 8, 2015 ; and (iii) in respect of the June 2015 distribution, on July 15, 2015 , it will pay a distribution of $0.059166667 per share to stockholders of record at the close of business on July 8, 2015 .

Dilution

Our net tangible book value per share is based on balance sheet amounts and is calculated as (1) total book value of our assets less the net value of intangible assets of $477.9 million at March 31, 2015 , (2) minus total liabilities less the net value of intangible liabilities, if applicable, (3) divided by the total number of shares of common and preferred stock outstanding as of March 31, 2015 . This calculation assumes that the value of real estate, and real estate related assets and liabilities diminish predictably over time as shown through the depreciation and amortization of real estate investments. Real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions. Net tangible book value is used generally as a conservative measure of net worth that we do not believe reflects our estimated value per share. It is not intended to reflect the value of our assets upon an orderly liquidation. Our net tangible book value reflects dilution in the value of our common and preferred stock from the offer price as a result of (i) operating losses, which reflect, among other things, accumulated depreciation and amortization of real estate investments, (ii) the funding of distributions from sources other than our cash flow from operations, and (iii) fees paid in connection with our IPO, including commissions, dealer manager fees and other offering costs. As of March 31, 2015 , our net tangible book value per share was $5.36 . The offering price of shares under our primary offering (ignoring purchase price discounts for certain categories of purchasers) was $10.00 per share and $9.50 per common share under our DRIP.

Loan Obligations

Our loan obligations generally require principal and interest amounts payable monthly with all unpaid principal and interest due at maturity. The loan agreements stipulate compliance with specific reporting covenants. As of March 31, 2015 , we were in compliance with the debt covenants under our loan agreements.

Our Advisor, with approval from our independent board of directors, may seek to borrow short-term capital that, combined with secured mortgage financing, exceeds our targeted leverage ratio. Such short-term borrowings may be obtained from third-parties on a case-by-case basis as acquisition opportunities present themselves simultaneous with our capital raising efforts. We view the use of short-term borrowings as an efficient and accretive means of acquiring real estate in advance of raising equity capital. Accordingly, we can take advantage of buying opportunities as we expand our fund raising activities. As additional equity capital is obtained, these short-term borrowings will be repaid.

Foreign Currency Translation

Our reporting currency is the US dollar. The functional currency of our foreign investments is the applicable local currency for each foreign location in which we invest. Assets and liabilities in these foreign locations (including intercompany balances for which settlement is not anticipated in the foreseeable future) are translated at the spot rate in effect at the applicable reporting date. The amounts reported in the consolidated statements of operations are translated at the average exchange rates in effect during the applicable period. The resulting unrealized cumulative translation adjustment is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the consolidated statement of equity.

⁽¹⁾	Amounts in the table above that relate to our foreign operations are based on the exchange rate of the local currencies at March 31, 2015 , which consisted primarily of the Euro and British pounds. At March 31, 2015 , we had no material capital lease obligations for which we were the lessee, either individually or in the aggregate.


⁽²⁾	Derivative payments are not included in this table due to the uncertainty of the timing and amounts of payments. Additionally, as derivatives can be settled at any point in time, they are generally not considered long-term in nature.

Election as a REIT

We qualified to be taxed as a REIT under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), commencing with our taxable year ended December 31, 2013. Commencing with such taxable year, we were organized and operate in such a manner as to qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Code. We intend to continue to operate in such a manner to qualify for taxation as a REIT, but no assurance can be given that we will operate in a manner so as to qualify or remain qualified as a REIT. In order to qualify and continue to qualify for taxation as a REIT, we must, among other things, distribute annually at least 90% of our REIT taxable income. REITs are subject to a number of other organizational and operational requirements. Even if we qualify for taxation as a REIT, we may be subject to certain federal, state, local and foreign taxes on our income and assets, including alternative minimum taxes, taxes on any undistributed income and state, local or foreign income, franchise, property and transfer taxes. Any of these taxes decrease our earnings and our available cash.

In addition, our international assets and operations, including those designated as direct or indirect qualified REIT subsidiaries or other disregarded entities of a REIT, continue to be subject to taxation in the foreign jurisdictions where those assets are held or those operations are conducted.

Inflation

We may be adversely impacted by inflation on any leases that do not contain indexed escalation provisions. In addition, we may be required to pay costs for maintenance and operation of properties which may adversely impact our results of operations due to potential increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.

Table of Contents

Related-Party Transactions and Agreements

We have entered into agreements with affiliates of our Sponsor, whereby we have paid or may in the future pay certain fees or reimbursements to our Advisor or its affiliates and entities under common control with our Advisor in connection with acquisition and financing activities, sales and maintenance of common stock under our offering, transfer agency services, asset and property management services and reimbursement of operating and offering related costs. See Note 10 — Related Party Transactions to our financial statements included in this report for a discussion of the various related party transactions, agreements and fees.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no off-balance sheet arrangements as of March 31, 2015 that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

The market risk associated with financial instruments and derivative financial instruments is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices or rates. Our interest rate risk management objectives with respect to our long-term debt will be to limit the impact of interest rate changes in earnings and cash flows and to lower our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, from time to time, we may enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as swaps and collars in order to mitigate our interest rate risk with respect to various debt instruments. We would not hold or issue these derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes. We may also be exposed to foreign currency fluctuations as a result of any investments in foreign operations in Europe and elsewhere internationally.

As of March 31, 2015 , our debt included fixed-rate secured mortgage financing, with a carrying value of $261.9 million and a fair value of $261.4 million and a weighted average interest rate per annum of 2.9% . Changes in market interest rates on our fixed-rate debt impact the fair value of the notes, but it has no impact on interest incurred or cash flow. For instance, if interest rates rise 100 basis points and our fixed rate debt balance remains constant, we expect the fair value of our obligation to decrease, the same way the price of a bond declines as interest rates rise. The sensitivity analysis related to our fixed–rate debt assumes an immediate 100 basis point move in interest rates from their March 31, 2015 levels, with all other variables held constant. A 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would result in a decrease in the fair value of our fixed-rate debt by $1.7 million . A 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates would result in an increase in the fair value of our fixed-rate debt by $1.9 million .

At March 31, 2015 our debt included a variable-rate revolving credit facility with a carrying and fair value of $633.4 million . Interest rate volatility associated with this variable-rate credit facility affects interest expense incurred and cash flow. The sensitivity analysis related to our variable-rate debt assumes an immediate 100 basis point move in interest rates at the beginning of the year with all other variables held constant. A 100 basis point increase or decrease in variable interest rates on our variable-rate credit facility would increase or decrease our interest expense by $0.4 million and $0.5 million respectively.

These amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rate changes on our borrowing costs, and assuming no other changes in our capital structure. As the information presented above includes only those exposures that existed as of March 31, 2015 , it does not consider exposures or positions arising after that date. The information represented herein has limited predictive value. Future actual realized gains or losses with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on cumulative exposures, hedging strategies employed and the magnitude of the fluctuations.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

In accordance with Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Exchange Act, we, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and determined that the disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

No change occurred in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended March 31, 2015 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

As of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are not a party to any material pending legal proceedings.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Our potential risks and uncertainties are presented in the section entitled "Risk Factors", contained in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 . There have been no material changes from these risk factors, except for the items described below.

Distributions paid from sources other than our cash flows from operations, particularly from proceeds of our IPO, will result in us having fewer funds available for the acquisition of properties and other real estate-related investments and may dilute your interests in us, which may adversely affect our ability to fund future distributions with cash flows from operations and may adversely affect your overall return.

Distributions paid from sources other than our cash flows from operations, particularly from proceeds of our offering, reduce the funds available for the acquisition of properties and other real estate-related investments and may dilute your interests in us, which may adversely affect our ability to fund future distributions with cash flows from operations and may adversely affect your overall return.

Our cash flows provided by operations were $34.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015 . During the three months ended March 31, 2015 , we paid distributions of $31.3 million , of which $17.0 million , or 54.4% , was funded from proceeds from the issuance of common stock and proceeds from our IPO which were reinvested in common stock issued under the DRIP. The remaining $14.3 million , or 45.6% , was funded from cash flows from operations. During the three months ended March 31, 2015 cash flow from operations included an increase in accounts payable and accrued expenses of $3.9 million , as reflected on the statement of cash flows. Accordingly, if these accounts payable and accrued expenses had been paid during the three months ended March 31, 2015 , there would have been $3.9 million less in cash flow from operations available to pay distributions. Using offering proceeds to pay distributions, especially if the distributions are not reinvested through our DRIP, reduces cash available for investment in assets and other purposes and reduces our per share stockholder equity. We may continue to use the net offering proceeds to fund distributions.

We may not generate sufficient cash flows from operations to pay distributions. If we have not generated sufficient cash flows from our operations and other sources, such as from borrowings, the sale of additional securities, advances from our Advisor, and/or our Advisor's deferral, suspension and/or waiver of its fees and expense reimbursements, in order to fund distributions, we may use the proceeds from our IPO. Moreover, our board of directors may change our distribution policy, in its sole discretion, at any time. Distributions made from offering proceeds are a return of capital to stockholders, from which we will have already paid offering expenses in connection with our IPO. We have not established any limit on the amount of proceeds from our IPO that may be used to fund distributions, except that, in accordance with our organizational documents and Maryland law, we may not make distributions that would: (1) cause us to be unable to pay our debts as they become due in the usual course of business; (2) cause our total assets to be less than the sum of our total liabilities plus senior liquidation preferences, if any; or (3) jeopardize our ability to qualify as a REIT.

Funding distributions from borrowings could restrict the amount we can borrow for investments, which may affect our profitability. Funding distributions with the sale of assets or the proceeds of our IPO may affect our ability to generate cash flows. Funding distributions from the sale of additional securities could dilute your interest in us if we sell shares of our common stock or securities that are convertible or exercisable into shares of our common stock to third party investors. Payment of distributions from the mentioned sources could restrict our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operations, affect our profitability and/or affect the distributions payable to you upon a liquidity event, any or all of which may have an adverse effect on your investment.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds of Registered Securities.

We did not sell any equity securities that were not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), during the three months ended March 31, 2015 .

Table of Contents

On April 20, 2012, we commenced our IPO on a "reasonable best efforts" basis of up to 150.0 million of common stock, pursuant to the Registration Statement filed with the SEC under the Securities Act. The Registration Statement also covers up to 25.0 million shares of common stock issuable pursuant the DRIP under which common stockholders may elect to have their distributions reinvested in additional shares of common stock. On June 13, 2014, we announced the reallocation 23.8 million shares which represented all remaining unsold shares available pursuant to the DRIP. On June 17, 2014, we registered an additional 25.0 million shares to be issued under the DRIP pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-196829 ). As of March 31, 2015 , we have issued 179.6 million shares of our common stock, and received $1,781.4 million of offering proceeds from the sale of common stock, including shares issued under the DRIP. On May 7, 2015, the Company filed a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement to deregister the unsold shares registered under the Registration Statement.

The following table reflects the offering costs associated with the issuance of common stock:



	For the Period from July 13, 2011 (date of inception) to
(In thousands)	March 31, 2015
Selling commissions and dealer manager fees	$	162,391
Other offering costs	25,711
Total offering costs	$	188,102

The Dealer Manager may reallow the selling commissions and a portion of the dealer manager fees to participating broker-dealers. The following table details the selling commissions incurred and reallowed related to the sale of shares of common stock:



	For the Period from July 13, 2011 (date of inception) to
(In thousands)	March 31, 2015
Total commissions paid to the Dealer Manager	$	162,391
Less:
Commissions to participating brokers	(110,150		)
Reallowance to participating broker dealers	(16,455		)
Net to the Dealer Manager	$	35,786

As of March 31, 2015 , cumulative offering costs included $18.2 million paid to the Advisor and Dealer Manager to reimburse offering costs incurred. As of March 31, 2015 , we have incurred $188.1 million of total cumulative offering costs in connection with the issuance and distribution of our registered securities. The Advisor has elected to cap cumulative offering costs incurred by us, net of unpaid amounts, to 11.5% of gross common stock proceeds during the offering period. Cumulative offering costs, net of unpaid amounts, were less than the 11.5% threshold as of March 31, 2015 . Cumulative offering proceeds from the sale of common stock exceeded cumulative offering costs by $1,610.5 million at March 31, 2015 .

We have used and expect to continue to use substantially all of the net proceeds from our IPO to primarily acquire a diversified portfolio of income producing real estate properties, focusing primarily on acquiring freestanding, single-tenant bank branches, convenience stores, office, industrial and retail properties net leased to investment grade and other creditworthy tenants. We may also originate or acquire first mortgage loans secured by real estate. As of March 31, 2015 , we have used debt financing of approximately $895.3 million and the net proceeds from our IPO to purchase 309 properties with an aggregate base purchase price of $2.4 billion . We have used and may continue to use net proceeds from our IPO to fund a portion of our distributions. See Distributions in "Item 2 - Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Distributions" for further discussion.
