Explanatory Note

This report combines the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2017 of Spirit Realty Capital, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and Spirit Realty, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company” refer to Spirit Realty Capital, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including Spirit Realty, L.P. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references to the “Operating Partnership” refer to Spirit Realty, L.P. together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

Spirit General OP Holdings, LLC ("OP Holdings") is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Company is a real estate investment trust, or REIT, and the sole member of OP Holdings, as well as the special limited partner of the Operating Partnership. As sole member of the general partner of our Operating Partnership, our Company has the full, exclusive and complete responsibility for our Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management and control.

We believe combining the quarterly reports on Form 10-Q of our Company and Operating Partnership into a single report results in the following benefits:


•	enhancing investors’ understanding of our Company and Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole, reflective of how management views and operates the business;


•	eliminating duplicative disclosure and providing a streamlined presentation as a substantial portion of the disclosures apply to both our Company and Operating Partnership; and


•	creating time and cost efficiencies by preparing one combined report in lieu of two separate reports.

There are a few differences between our Company and Operating Partnership, which are reflected in the disclosures in this report. We believe it is important to understand these differences in the context of how we operate as an interrelated, consolidated company. Our Company is a REIT, the only material assets of which are the partnership interests in our Operating Partnership. As a result, our Company does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole member of the general partner of our Operating Partnership, issuing equity from time to time and guaranteeing certain debt of our Operating Partnership. Our Operating Partnership holds substantially all the assets of our Company. Our Company issued convertible notes and guarantees some of the debt of our Operating Partnership, see footnote 4 to the consolidated financial statements included herein for further discussion. Our Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for net proceeds from the issuance of convertible notes and equity issuances by our Company, which are generally contributed to our Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units of our Operating Partnership, our Operating Partnership generates the capital required by our Company’s business through our Operating Partnership’s operations or our Operating Partnership’s incurrence of indebtedness.

The presentation of stockholders’ equity and partners’ capital are the main areas of difference between the consolidated financial statements of our Company and those of our Operating Partnership. The partnership units in our Operating Partnership are accounted for as partners’ capital in our Operating Partnership’s consolidated financial statements. There are no non-controlling interests in the Company or the Operating Partnership.

To help investors understand the significant differences between our Company and our Operating Partnership, this report presents the consolidated financial statements separately for our Company and our Operating Partnership. All other sections of this report, including “Selected Financial Data,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” are presented together for our Company and our Operating Partnership.

In order to establish that the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of each entity have made the requisite certifications and that our Company and Operating Partnership are compliant with Rule 13a-15 or Rule 15d-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the Exchange Act, and 18 U.S.C. §1350, this report also includes separate “Item 4. Controls and Procedures” sections and separate Exhibit 31 and 32 certifications for each of our Company and our Operating Partnership.

Note 1. Organization

Company Organization and Operations

Spirit Realty Capital, Inc. (the "Corporation" or, with its consolidated subsidiaries, the "Company") operates as a self-administered and self-managed REIT that seeks to generate and deliver sustainable and attractive returns for stockholders by investing primarily in and managing a portfolio of single-tenant, operationally essential real estate throughout the U.S. that is generally leased on a long-term, triple-net basis to tenants operating within predominantly retail, but also office and industrial property types. Single tenant, operationally essential real estate generally refers to free-standing, commercial real estate facilities where tenants conduct activities that are essential to the generation of their sales and profits.The Company began operations through a predecessor legal entity in 2003.

The Company’s operations are generally carried out through Spirit Realty, L.P. (the "Operating Partnership") and its subsidiaries. Spirit General OP Holdings, LLC ("OP Holdings"), one of the Corporation's wholly-owned subsidiaries, is the sole general partner and owns approximately 1.0% of the Operating Partnership. The Corporation and a wholly-owned subsidiary ("Spirit Notes Partner, LLC") are the only limited partners and together own the remaining 99.0% of the Operating Partnership.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Accounting and Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company and the Operating Partnership have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements include the normal, recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the information required to be set forth therein. The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. Certain information and note disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted from these statements pursuant to SEC rules and regulations and, accordingly, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as filed with the SEC in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Corporation and its wholly owned subsidiaries. The consolidated financial statements of the Operating Partnership include the accounts of the Operating Partnership and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

All expenses incurred by the Company have been allocated to the Operating Partnership in accordance with the Operating Partnership's first amended and restated agreement of limited partnership, which management determined to be a reasonable method of allocation. Therefore, expenses incurred would not be materially different if the Operating Partnership had operated as an unaffiliated entity.

The Company has formed numerous special purpose entities to acquire and hold real estate encumbered by indebtedness (see Note 4). Each special purpose entity is a separate legal entity and is the sole owner of its assets and responsible for its liabilities. The assets of these special purpose entities are not available to pay, or otherwise satisfy obligations to, the creditors of any affiliate or owner of another entity unless the special purpose entities have expressly agreed and are permitted under their governing documents. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, net assets totaling $2.83 billion and $2.95 billion, respectively, were held, and net liabilities totaling $2.20 billion and $2.26 billion, respectively, were owed by these special purpose entities and are included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Although management believes its estimates are reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Segment Reporting

The Company views its operations as one segment, which consists of net leasing operations. The Company has no other reportable segments.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

The Company reviews its rent and other tenant receivables for collectability on a regular basis, taking into consideration changes in factors such as 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 tenant operates. In the event that the collectability of a receivable with respect to any tenant is in doubt, a provision for uncollectible amounts will be established or a direct write-off of the specific receivable will be made. The Company provided for reserves for uncollectible amounts totaling $10.2 million and $6.4 million at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, against accounts receivable balances of $23.8 million and $25.3 million, respectively. Receivables are recorded within deferred costs and other assets, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Receivables are written off against the reserves for uncollectible amounts when all possible means of collection have been exhausted.

For deferred rental revenues related to the straight-line method of reporting rental revenue, the collectability review includes management’s estimates of amounts that will not be realized and an assessment of the risks inherent in the portfolio, giving consideration to historical experience and industry default rates for long-term receivables. The Company established a reserve for losses of $4.3 million at June 30, 2017 and $7.7 million at December 31, 2016, against deferred rental revenue receivables of $76.6 million and $71.1 million, respectively. Deferred rental revenue receivables are recorded within deferred costs and other assets, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Restricted Cash and Escrow Deposits

Restricted cash and deposits in escrow, classified within deferred costs and other assets, net in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets consisted of the following (in thousands):



	June 30, 2017		December 31, 2016
Collateral deposits ⁽¹⁾	$	1,587	$	1,374
Tenant improvements, repairs, and leasing commissions ⁽²⁾	10,392		9,739

Loan impounds ⁽⁴⁾	347		670

	$	52,277	$	26,839

⁽¹⁾Funds held in reserve by lenders which can be applied at their discretion to the repayment of debt (any funds remaining on deposit after the debt is paid in full are released to the borrower). Balance changes are reflected in financing activities within the Statement of Cash Flows.

⁽²⁾Deposits held as additional collateral support by lenders to fund tenant improvements, repairs and leasing commissions incurred to secure a new tenant. Balance changes are reflected in financing activities within the Statement of Cash Flows.

⁽³⁾ Proceeds from the sale of assets pledged as collateral under the Spirit Master Funding Program, which are held on deposit until a qualifying substitution is made or the funds are applied as prepayment of principal. Balance changes are reflected in investing activities within the Statement of Cash Flows.

⁽⁴⁾ Funds held in lender controlled accounts generally used to meet future debt service or certain property operating expenses. Balance changes are reflected in financing activities within the Statement of Cash Flows.

⁽⁵⁾Funds held in lender controlled accounts released after scheduled debt service requirements are met. Balance changes are reflected in operating activities within the Statement of Cash Flows.

Goodwill

Goodwill arises from business combinations and represents the excess of the cost of an acquired entity over the net fair value amounts that were assigned to the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. Goodwill is tested

for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of the reporting unit below its carrying value.

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Code. As a REIT, the Company generally will not be subject to federal income tax provided it continues to satisfy certain tests concerning the Company’s sources of income, the nature of its assets, the amounts distributed to its stockholders and the ownership of Company stock. Management believes the Company has qualified and will continue to qualify as a REIT and therefore, no provision has been made for federal income taxes in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to state and local income and franchise taxes and to federal income tax and excise tax on its undistributed income.

Franchise taxes are included in general and administrative expenses on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Taxable income from non-REIT activities managed through the Company’s taxable REIT subsidiaries are subject to federal, state and local taxes, which are not material.

New Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or the SEC that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. These new accounting pronouncements entail technical corrections to existing guidance or affect guidance related to specialized industries or entities. There are no updates to our prior disclosures regarding adoption of pronouncements that are not yet effective. Additionally, we have evaluated new accounting pronouncements issued subsequent to our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and have concluded that they are either not applicable or will not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

Changes in Accounting Principle

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which simplifies many aspects of accounting for share-based payment transactions under ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation, including income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liability, forfeiture rate calculations and classification on the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted this new guidance effective January 1, 2017 and made an accounting policy election to recognize stock-based compensation forfeitures as they occur, whereas previously stock-based compensation forfeitures were estimated and recognized based on historical forfeiture rates. This change in accounting principle has been applied prospectively and the change in accounting principle had no material impact on the financial statements of the Company.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business, which narrows the definition of a business. The Company early adopted the guidance effective January 1, 2017 and application is on a prospective basis. Under the new guidance, the acquisition of a property with an in-place lease generally will no longer be accounted for as an acquisition of a business, but instead as an asset acquisition, meaning the transaction costs of such an acquisition will now be capitalized instead of expensed. Further, dispositions of properties generally no longer qualify as a disposition of a business and therefore will not generate allocated goodwill when determining gain or loss on sale.

Note 3. Investments

Real Estate Investments

As of June 30, 2017, the Company's gross investment in real estate properties and loans totaled approximately $8.1 billion, representing investments in 2,549 properties, including 74 properties or other related assets securing mortgage loans. The gross investment is comprised of land, buildings, lease intangible assets and lease intangible liabilities, as adjusted for any impairment, and the carrying amount of loans receivable, real estate assets held under direct financing leases and real estate assets held for sale. The portfolio is geographically dispersed throughout 49 states with only one state, Texas, with a real estate investment of 12.3%, accounting for more than 10% of the total dollar amount of the Company’s real estate investment portfolio.

Revolving Credit Facility

On March 31, 2015, the Operating Partnership entered into the Credit Agreement that established a new $600.0 million unsecured credit facility. The Revolving Credit Facility matures on March 31, 2019 (extendable at the Operating Partnership's option to March 31, 2020, subject to satisfaction of certain requirements) and includes an accordion feature to increase the committed facility size up to $1.0 billion, subject to satisfying certain requirements and obtaining additional lender commitments. On April 27, 2016, the Company expanded the borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility from $600.0 million to $800.0 million by partially exercising the accordion feature under the terms of the Credit Agreement. The Revolving Credit Facility also includes a $50.0 million sub-limit for swing-line loans and up to $60.0 million available for issuances of letters of credit. Swing-line loans and letters of credit reduce availability under the Revolving Credit Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis. On November 3, 2015, the Company entered into a first amendment to the Credit Agreement. The amendment conforms certain of the terms and covenants to those in the Term Loan Agreement, including limiting the requirement of subsidiary guarantees to material subsidiaries (as defined in the Credit Agreement) meeting certain conditions. At June 30, 2017, there were no subsidiaries meeting this requirement.

Borrowings bear interest at either a specified base rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin, at the Operating Partnership's option. The Revolving Credit Facility bears interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 0.875% to 1.55% per annum or a specified base rate plus 0.00% to 0.55% and requires a facility fee in an amount equal to the aggregate revolving credit commitments (whether or not utilized) multiplied by a rate equal to 0.125% to 0.30% per annum, in each case depending on the Corporation's credit rating. As of June 30, 2017, the Revolving Credit Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.25% based on the Company's credit rating and incurred a facility fee of 0.25% per annum.

The Operating Partnership may voluntarily prepay the Revolving Credit Facility, in whole or in part, at any time, without premium or penalty, but subject to applicable LIBOR breakage fees, if any. Payment of the Revolving Credit Facility is unconditionally guaranteed by the Corporation and material subsidiaries that meet certain conditions (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Revolving Credit Facility is full recourse to the Operating Partnership and the aforementioned guarantors.

As a result of entering into the Revolving Credit Facility and expanding the borrowing capacity, the Company incurred costs of $4.8 million. These deferred financing costs are being amortized to interest expense over the remaining initial term of the Revolving Credit Facility. The unamortized deferred financing costs relating to the Revolving Credit Facility were $2.3 million and $2.9 million as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, and recorded in deferred costs and other assets, net on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

As of June 30, 2017, $320.0 million was outstanding, no letters of credit were issued and $480.0 million of borrowing capacity was available under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Operating Partnership's ability to borrow under the Revolving Credit Facility is subject to ongoing compliance with a number of customary financial covenants and other customary affirmative and negative covenants. As of June 30, 2017, the Corporation and the Operating Partnership were in compliance with these financial covenants.

Term Loan

On November 3, 2015, the Company entered into a Term Loan Agreement among the Operating Partnership, as borrower, the Company as guarantor and the lenders that are parties thereto. The Term Loan Agreement provides for a $325.0 million senior unsecured term facility that has an initial maturity date of November 2, 2018, which may be extended at the Company's option pursuant to two one-year extension options, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and payment of an extension fee. In addition, an accordion feature allows the facility to be increased up to $600.0 million, subject to obtaining additional lender commitments. During the fourth quarter of 2015 and 2016, the Company exercised the accordion feature under the Credit Agreement and increased the term facility borrowing capacity from $325.0 million to $370.0 million and $420.0 million, respectively.

The Term Loan Agreement provides that borrowings bear interest at either LIBOR plus 1.35% to 1.80% per annum or a specified base rate plus 0.35% to 0.80% per annum, at the Operating Partnership's option. The borrowings bear interest at either LIBOR plus 0.90% to 1.75% per annum or a specified base rate plus 0.00% to 0.75% per annum, in each case depending on the Corporation’s credit ratings. As of June 30, 2017, the Term Loan bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.35% based on the Company's credit rating.

The Operating Partnership may voluntarily prepay the Term Loan, in whole or in part, at any time, without premium or penalty, but subject to applicable LIBOR breakage fees. Borrowings may be repaid without premium or penalty, and may be re-borrowed within 30 days up to the then available loan commitment and subject to occurrence limitations within any twelve-month period. Payment of the Term Loan is unconditionally guaranteed by the Corporation and, under certain circumstances, by one or more material subsidiaries (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) of the Corporation. The obligations of the Corporation and any guarantor under the Term Loan are full recourse to the Corporation and each guarantor.

As a result of entering into the Term Loan, the Company incurred origination costs of $2.4 million. These deferred financing costs are being amortized to interest expense over the remaining initial term of the Term Loan. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the unamortized deferred financing costs relating to the Term Loan were $1.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively, and recorded net against the principal balance of the Term Loan on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

As of June 30, 2017, the Term Loan was fully drawn. The Operating Partnership's ability to borrow under the Term Loan is subject to ongoing compliance with a number of customary financial covenants and other customary affirmative and negative covenants. The Corporation has unconditionally guaranteed all obligations of the Operating Partnership under the Term Loan Agreement. As of June 30, 2017, the Corporation and the Operating Partnership were in compliance with these financial covenants.

The Senior Unsecured Notes are redeemable in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the Operating Partnership’s option, at a redemption price equal to the sum of: an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Unsecured Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest and liquidated damages, if any, up to, but not including, the redemption date; and a make-whole premium calculated in accordance with the indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the Senior Unsecured Notes are redeemed on or after June 15, 2026 (three months prior to the maturity date of the Senior Unsecured Notes), the redemption price will not include a make-whole premium.

In connection with the offering, the Operating Partnership incurred $3.4 million in deferred financing costs. This amount is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the Senior Unsecured Notes.

The Convertible Notes are convertible only during certain periods and, subject to certain circumstances, into cash, shares of the Corporation's common stock, or a combination thereof. The initial conversion rate applicable to each series is 76.3636 per $1,000 principal note (equivalent to an initial conversion price of $13.10 per share of common stock, representing a 22.5% premium above the public offering price of the common stock offered concurrently at the time the Convertible Notes were issued).

The Company uses interest rate derivative contracts to manage its exposure to changes in interest rates on its variable rate debt. These derivatives are considered cash flow hedges and are recorded on a gross basis at fair value. Assessments of hedge effectiveness are performed quarterly using regression analysis and the measurement of hedge ineffectiveness is based on the hypothetical derivative method. The effective portion of changes in fair value are recorded in AOCL and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transactions affect earnings. The ineffective portion is recorded immediately in earnings in general and administrative expenses. The Company does not enter into derivatives contracts for speculative or trading purposes.

The Company considers various factors when estimating its environmental liabilities, and adjustments are made when additional information becomes available that affects the estimated costs to study or remediate any environmental issues. When only a wide range of estimated amounts can be reasonably established and no other amount within the range is better than another, the low end of the range is recorded in the consolidated financial statements.

Note 8. Fair Value Measurements

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company did not have any assets or liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016.

Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements

Fair value measurement of an asset on a nonrecurring basis occurs when events or changes in circumstances related to an asset indicate that the carrying amount of the asset is no longer recoverable. The following table sets forth the Company’s assets that were accounted for at fair value on a nonrecurring basis (in thousands):

⁽¹⁾ Impairment charges are presented for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Real estate assets and their related intangible assets are evaluated for impairment based on certain indicators including, but not limited to: the asset being held for sale, vacant, non-operating or the lease on the asset expiring in twelve months or less. The fair values of impaired real estate and intangible assets were determined by using the following information, depending on availability, in order of preference: signed purchase and sale agreements or letters of intent;

recently quoted bid or ask prices, or market prices for comparable properties; estimates of cash flow, which consider, among other things, contractual and forecasted rental revenues, leasing assumptions, and expenses based upon market conditions; and expectations for the use of the real estate. Based on these inputs, the Company determined that its valuation of the impaired real estate and intangible assets falls within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017 and for the year ended December 31, 2016, we determined that 21 and 33 long-lived assets held and used, respectively, were impaired. The Company estimated the fair value of these properties using weighted average sales price per square foot of comparable properties for seven of the 21 impaired properties during the six months ended June 30, 2017 and for 16 of the 33 impaired properties during the year ended December 31, 2016.

The following table provides information about the weighted average sales price per square foot of comparable properties used to estimate fair value (price per square foot in dollars):



	June 30, 2017				December 31, 2016
Description	Range	Weighted Average		Square Footage	Range	Weighted Average		Square Footage
Long-lived assets held and used by asset type

Estimated Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Financial assets and liabilities for which the carrying values approximate their fair values include cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and escrow deposits, and accounts receivable and payable. Generally, these assets and liabilities are short-term in duration and are recorded at cost, which approximates fair value, on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

In addition to the disclosures for assets and liabilities required to be measured at fair value at the balance sheet date, companies are required to disclose the estimated fair values of all financial instruments, even if they are not carried at their fair values. The fair values of financial instruments are estimates based upon market conditions and perceived risks at June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016. These estimates require management’s judgment and may not be indicative of the future fair values of the assets and liabilities.

The estimated fair values of the loans receivable, Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan, Senior Unsecured Notes, Convertible Notes and the fixed-rate mortgages and notes payable have been derived based on market quotes for comparable instruments or discounted cash flow analyses using estimates of the amount and timing of future cash flows, market rates and credit spreads. The loans receivable, Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan, Senior Unsecured Notes, Convertible Notes and the mortgages and notes payable were measured using a market approach from nationally recognized financial institutions with market observable inputs such as interest rates and credit analytics. These measurements are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The following table discloses fair value information for these financial instruments (in thousands):

Note 9. Significant Credit and Revenue Concentration

As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company’s real estate investments are operated by 432 and 450 tenants, respectively, that operate within retail, office and industrial property types across various industries throughout the U.S. Shopko operates in the general merchandise industry and is the Company’s largest tenant as a percentage of rental revenue. Total rental revenues from properties leased to Shopko for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, contributed 7.6% and 9.5% of the rental revenue shown in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. No other tenant contributed 4% or more of the rental revenue during any of the periods presented. As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company's net investment in Shopko properties represents approximately 5.4% and 5.8%, respectively, of the Company’s total assets and the Company's real estate investment in Shopko represents approximately 7.3% and 7.7%, respectively, of the Company's total real estate investment portfolio.

Note 11. Incentive Award Plan

Restricted Shares of Common Stock

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company granted 0.6 million restricted shares under the Amended Incentive Award Plan to certain executive officers and employees. The Company recorded $6.0 million in deferred compensation associated with these grants, which will be recognized in expense over the service period of the awards. As of June 30, 2017, there were approximately 1.0 million unvested restricted shares outstanding.

Performance Share Awards

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Board of Directors or committee thereof approved an initial target grant of 0.4 million performance shares to executive officers of the Company. The performance period of this grant runs from January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2019. Potential shares of the Corporation's common stock that each participant is eligible to receive is based on the initial target number of shares granted multiplied by a percentage range between 0% and 250%. Grant date fair value was calculated using the Monte Carlo simulation model, which incorporated stock price correlation, projected dividend yields and other variables over the time horizons matching the performance periods. Stock-based compensation expense associated with unvested performance share awards is recognized on a straight-line basis over the minimum required service period, which is generally three years. Based on the grant date fair value, the Corporation expects to recognize $5.8 million in compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period.

Approximately $0.4 million and $0.5 million in dividend rights have been accrued for non-vested performance share awards outstanding as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. For outstanding non-vested awards at June 30, 2017, no shares would have been released based on the Corporation's TSR relative to the specified peer groups through that date.

Stock-based Compensation Expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized $9.2 million and $1.5 million, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense, which is included in general and administrative expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. Stock-based compensation expense for the second quarter of 2017 included $6.9 million related to the acceleration of Restricted Stock and Performance Share Awards on the departure of the Chief Executive Officer. For the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, the Company recognized $11.4 million and $3.8 million, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense.

As of June 30, 2017, the remaining unamortized stock-based compensation expense, including amounts relating to the performance share awards, totaled $13.3 million, including $9.4 million related to restricted stock awards and $3.9 million related to performance share awards, which is recognized as the greater of the amount amortized on a straight-line basis over the service period of each applicable award or the amount vested over the vesting periods.

Note 12. Income Per Share and Partnership Unit

Income per share has been computed using the two-class method which is computed by dividing the sum of distributed earnings to common stockholders and undistributed earnings allocated to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. In applying the two-class method, undistributed earnings are allocated to both shares of common stock and participating securities based on the weighted average shares outstanding during the period. Classification of the Company's unvested restricted stock, which contain rights to receive non-forfeitable dividends, are deemed participating securities under the two-class method. Under the two-class method, earnings attributable to unvested restricted shares are deducted from income from continuing operations in the computation of net income attributable to common stockholders.

⁽¹⁾ Assumes the most dilutive issuance of potentially issuable shares between the two-class and treasury stock method unless the result would be anti-dilutive.

The Corporation intends to satisfy its exchange obligation for the principal amount of the Convertible Notes to the note holders entirely in cash, therefore, the "if-converted" method does not apply and the treasury stock method is being used. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2017, the Corporation's average stock price was below the conversion price, resulting in zero potentially dilutive shares related to the conversion spread for both periods.

Note 13. Costs Associated With Restructuring Activities

On November 16, 2015, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the strategic decision to relocate its headquarters from Scottsdale, Arizona to Dallas, Texas. The Company began occupying temporary office space in the new headquarters building in the spring of 2016, and finalized the move with the opening of the new office space in late September 2016. As a result of moving its corporate headquarters, the Company incurred various restructuring charges, including employee separation and relocation costs. Restructuring charges for the six months ended June 30, 2016 totaled $2.5 million, and are included within restructuring charges on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations. As of and for the six months ended June 30, 2017, the Company no longer had any accrued restructuring charges and incurred no additional restructuring charges.

Note 14. Subsequent Events

On August 3, 2017, the Company announced a plan to spin off the Company's interests in its properties leased to Shopko, assets that collateralize Master Trust 2014 and potentially additional assets into an independent, publicly traded REIT ("SpinCo"). The spin-off is subject to certain conditions, including declaration by the SEC that SpinCo's registration statement on Form 10 is effective, customary third party consents and final approval and declaration of the distribution by our Board of Directors. The transaction is expected to be completed in the first half of 2018. The Company may, at any time and for any reason until the proposed transaction is complete, abandon the spin-off or modify or change its terms, including the assets it plans to contribute to SpinCo. Expenses incurred in connection with the potential spin-off have been recorded as transaction costs in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Overview

Spirit Realty Capital, Inc. is a New York Stock Exchange listed company under the ticker symbol "SRC." We are a self-administered and self-managed REIT with in-house capabilities including acquisition, portfolio management, asset management, credit research, real estate research, legal, finance and accounting and capital markets. We primarily invest in single-tenant, operationally essential real estate assets throughout the U.S., which are generally acquired through strategic sale-leaseback transactions and subsequently leased on long-term, triple-net basis to high quality tenants with business operations within predominantly retail, but also office and industrial property types. Single tenant, operationally essential real estate consists of properties that are generally free-standing, commercial real estate facilities where our tenants conduct activities that are essential to the generation of their sales and profits. In support of our primary business of owning and leasing real estate, we have also strategically originated or acquired long-term, commercial mortgage and other loans to provide a range of financing solutions to our tenants. As of June 30, 2017, our owned real estate represented investments in 2,475 properties. Our properties are leased to 432 tenants across 49 states and 30 industries. As of June 30, 2017, our owned properties were approximately 97.9% occupied (based on number of properties). In addition, our investment in real estate includes commercial mortgage and other loans receivable primarily secured by an additional 74 real estate properties or other related assets.

Our operations are primarily carried out through the Operating Partnership. OP Holdings, one of our wholly owned subsidiaries, is the sole general partner and owns approximately 1% of the Operating Partnership. We and one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries are the only limited partners, and together own the remaining 99% of the Operating Partnership. Although the Operating Partnership is wholly-owned by us, in the future, we may issue partnership interests in the Operating Partnership to third parties in exchange for property owned by such third parties. In general, any partnership interests in the Operating Partnership issued to third parties would be exchangeable for cash or, at our election, shares of our common stock at specified ratios set when such partnership interests in the Operating Partnership are issued.

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and believe we have been organized and have operated in a manner that has allowed us to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, and we intend to continue operating in such a manner.

On August 3, 2017, we announced a plan to spin off our interests in our properties leased to Shopko and assets that collateralize Master Trust 2014 into an independent, publicly traded REIT ("SpinCo"). The spin-off is subject to certain conditions, including declaration by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission that SpinCo's registration statement on Form 10 is effective, customary third party consents, and final approval and declaration of the distribution by our Board of Directors. The transaction is expected to be completed in the first half of 2018. We may, at any time and for any reason until the proposed transaction is complete, abandon the spin-off or modify or change its terms, including the assets we plan to contribute to SpinCo.

Factors that May Influence Our Operating Results

ACQUISITIONS AND LEASE STRUCTURE

Our principal business is acquiring commercial real estate properties and leasing these properties to our tenants. Our ability to grow revenue and produce superior risk adjusted returns depends on our ability to acquire additional properties at a yield sufficiently in excess of our cost of capital. We focus on opportunities to acquire attractive commercial real estate by providing capital to small and middle-market companies that we conclude have stable and proven operating histories and attractive credit characteristics. Small and middle-market companies are often willing to enter into leases with structures and terms that we consider appealing and that we believe increase the security of rental payments.

Portfolio Diversification

Our strategy emphasizes a portfolio that (1) derives no more than 10% of its Contractual Rent from any single tenant and no more than 2.0% of its Contractual Rent from any single property, (2) is leased to tenants operating in various industries and (3) is located across the U.S. without significant geographic concentration.

A core component of our business is investing in and managing a portfolio of single-tenant, operationally essential retail real estate throughout the U.S. Accordingly, our performance is substantially dependent on the performance of our retail tenants. The market for retail space has previously been, and could continue to be, adversely affected by weakness in the national, regional and local economies, the adverse financial condition of some retail companies, the ongoing consolidation in the retail industry, the excess amount of retail space in a number of markets and increasing consumer purchases through catalogs or over the internet.

In particular, we have experienced and expect to continue to experience challenges with some of our retailers through increased credit losses. These credit losses resulted in lower revenues from non-performing leases and certain charges for the write-off of unrecoverable receivables. We expect the non-performance for certain of these leases to continue.

As of June 30, 2017, Shopko represents our most significant tenant. Currently we lease 105 properties to Shopko, pursuant to three master leases and two single site leases, under which we receive approximately $4.1 million in rental revenues per month. We reduced our Shopko tenant concentration to 7.9% at June 30, 2017 compared to 9.1% of at June 30, 2016 (based on Contractual Rent). During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we sold 8 Shopko properties for $46.5 million in gross proceeds as we continue our objective to reduce our exposure to Shopko.

As a result of the significant number of properties leased to Shopko, our results of operations and financial condition are closely tied to Shopko's performance under its leases, which is ultimately tied to the performance of its stores and the retail industry in which it operates. Shopko operates as a multi-department general merchandise retailer and retail health services provider primarily in mid-size and large communities in the Midwest, Pacific Northwest, North Central and Western Mountain states. Given recent liquidity events and other challenges, including bankruptcies, impacting the retail industry relative to recent years and our monitoring of Shopko's financial information, we have increased our scrutiny on Shopko. If Shopko experiences a decline in its business, financial condition, results of operations or loses access to liquidity, it may request discounts or deferrals on the rents it pays to us, seek to terminate its master leases with us or close certain of its stores, all of which could decrease the amount of revenue we receive from it. Shopko is current on all of its obligations to us under our lease arrangements with them.

Operationally Essential Real Estate with Long-Term Leases

We seek to own properties that are operationally essential to our tenants, thereby reducing the risk that our tenants would choose not to renew an expiring lease or reject a lease in bankruptcy. We also seek to enter into leases with relatively long initial terms, typically 15 to 20 years, and renewal options with attractive rent escalation provisions. As of June 30, 2017, our leases had a weighted average remaining lease term of 10.3 years, compared to a weighted average remaining lease term of 10.7 years as of June 30, 2016 (based on Contractual Rent).

Rent Escalators

Our leases generally contain provisions contractually increasing the rental revenue over the term of the lease at specified dates by (1) a fixed amount or (2) the lesser of 1 to 1.25 times any increase in CPI over a specified period or a fixed amount (typically 1-2% per year). The percentage of our single-tenant properties containing rent escalators remained consistent at 89% as of both June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively (based on Contractual Rent).

Master Lease Structure

Where appropriate, we seek to enter into master leases, whereby we lease multiple properties to a single tenant on an “all or none” basis. The master lease structure prevents a tenant from unilaterally giving up under-performing properties while retaining well-performing properties. Master lease revenue contributed approximately 44% of our Contractual Rent as of June 30, 2017, compared to approximately 45% as of June 30, 2016.

Triple-Net Leases

Our leases are predominantly triple-net leases, whereby the tenant pays all property operating expenses, including but not limited to real estate taxes, insurance premiums and repair and maintenance costs. As of June 30, 2017, approximately 82% of our properties (based on Contractual Rent) are subject to triple-net leases, compared to approximately 83% as of June 30, 2016.

ASSET MANAGEMENT

The stability of the rental revenue generated by our properties depends principally on our tenants’ ability to pay rent and our ability to:


•	collect rent due,


•	renew expiring leases or re-lease space upon expiration or other termination,


•	lease currently vacant properties and


•	maintain or increase rental rates.

Each of these could be negatively impacted by adverse economic conditions, particularly those that affect the markets in which our properties are located, downturns in our tenants’ industries, increased competition for our tenants at our property locations, or the bankruptcy of one or more of our tenants. We seek to manage these risks by using our developed underwriting and risk management processes to structure and manage our portfolio.

Active Management and Monitoring of Risks Related to Our Investments

We seek to measure tenant financial distress risk and lease renewal risk through various processes. Many of our tenants are required to provide corporate-level and/or unit-level financial information, which includes balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement data on a quarterly and/or annual basis. Our underwriting and risk management processes are designed to structure new investments and manage existing investments to mitigate tenant credit quality risks and preserve the long-term return on our invested capital. Since our inception, our occupancy based on economically yielding properties has never been below 96.1% (based on number of properties), despite the economic downturn of 2008 through 2010. The percentage of our properties that were occupied decreased slightly to approximately 97.9% as of June 30, 2017 from approximately 98.3% as of June 30, 2016.

On September 8, 2015, Haggen Holdings, LLC and a number of its affiliates, including Haggen Operations Holdings, LLC, filed petitions for bankruptcy protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. At the time of the filing, Haggen Operations Holdings, LLC leased 20 properties on a triple net basis from a subsidiary of ours under a master lease. For discussion of the related settlement and current status of these properties, see footnote 7 to the consolidated financial statements herein.

CAPITAL RECYCLING

We continuously evaluate opportunities for the disposition of properties in our portfolio when we believe such disposition is appropriate in view of our business objectives, considering criteria including, but not limited to, tenant concentration, tenant credit quality, local market conditions and lease rates, associated indebtedness, asset location and tenant operation type (e.g., industry, sector, or concept/brand), as well as potential uses of proceeds and tax considerations. As part of this strategy, we may enter into 1031 Exchanges to defer some or all of the taxable gains on the dispositions, if any, for federal and state income tax purposes. We can provide no assurance that we will dispose of any additional properties or that future acquisitions and/or dispositions, if any, will qualify as 1031 Exchanges. Furthermore, we can provide no assurance that we will deploy the proceeds from future dispositions in a manner that produces comparable or better yields. We plan to deliberately slow down our acquisition activity for the remainder of 2017 and be selective with our dispositions. Additionally, we expect lease termination fees, which are recognized when there is a signed lease termination agreement and all of the conditions of the agreement have been met, may be less than in prior periods.

CAPITAL FUNDING

Our principal demands for funds are for property acquisitions, payment of principal and interest on our outstanding indebtedness, operating and property maintenance expenses and distributions to our stockholders. Generally, property

acquisitions are temporarily funded through our Revolving Credit Facility, followed by permanent financing through asset level financing or issuance of debt or equity securities. Our remaining cash needs are typically met by cash flows from operations, which are primarily driven by the rental income received from our leased properties, interest income earned on loans receivable and interest income on our cash balances.

Interest Costs

Our fixed-rate debt structure provides us with a stable and predictable cash requirement related to our debt service. Any changes to our debt structure, including borrowings under our Term Loan and Revolving Credit Facility or debt financing associated with property acquisitions, could materially influence our operating results depending on the terms of any such indebtedness. A significant amount of our debt provides for scheduled principal payments. As principal is repaid, our interest expense decreases. Fluctuations in interest rates will affect the interest expense we incur on unhedged variable interest rate debt and may impact our ability to refinance maturing debt.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. We base estimates on the best information available to us at the time, our experience and various other assumptions deemed reasonable under the circumstances. From time to time, we re-evaluate our estimates and assumptions. In the event estimates or assumptions prove to be different from actual results, adjustments are made in subsequent periods to reflect more current estimates and assumptions about matters that are inherently uncertain. A summary of our critical accounting policies is included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 in the section entitled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” We have not made any material changes to these policies during the periods covered by this quarterly report.

REVENUES

Rentals

Rental revenue for the comparative period remained relatively flat as decreases in contractual rent were offset by increases in non-cash rent and decreases in tenant credit losses. Our contractual rental revenue between periods decreased 1.2% as a result of an increase in vacancy period-over-period from 43 vacant properties at June 30, 2016 to 53 vacant properties at June 30, 2017, as well as the timing of redeployment of capital from real estate transactions over the trailing twelve month period.

Non-cash rentals for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $7.2 million and $6.0 million, respectively. These amounts represent approximately 4.5% and 3.7% of total rental revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. Tenant credit losses decreased between periods due to a higher amount of nonperforming properties in the restaurant - casual dining industry in the prior period.

Interest income on loans receivable

The decrease in interest income on loans receivable is a result of a decrease in financed properties from 109 at June 30, 2016 to 74 financed properties at June 30, 2017, resulting in a decrease of 27.4% in mortgage loans receivable balances for the comparative period. The loans associated with 66 of the properties were converted to fee simple.

Tenant reimbursement income

We have a number of leases that require our tenants to reimburse us for certain property costs we incur. Tenant reimbursement income is driven by the tenant reimbursable property costs described below.

Other income

The period-over-period decrease was due primarily to the receipt of $3.1 million in fee income associated with the prepayment of certain mortgage loans receivable in the three months ended June 30, 2016.

EXPENSES

General and administrative

The period-over-period increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to $11.1 million in severance related costs, comprising $4.2 million of cash compensation and $6.9 million of non-cash compensation, recorded in the three months ended June 30, 2017 following the departure of our chief executive officer. The period-over-period increase was partially offset by the $1.7 million loss recognized in the comparable prior period related to swap termination fees.

Property costs

The increase in property costs is primarily due to an increase in non-reimbursable property taxes of $2.7 million that resulted from the increase in vacant properties as compared to the same period a year ago, as well as tenant credit issues. As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, 53 and 43 of our properties, representing approximately 2.1% and 1.7% of our owned properties, were vacant. Additionally, tenant reimbursable property costs for the three months ended June 30, 2017 were $5.1 million, an increase from $4.5 million for the same period in 2016.

Interest

The decrease in interest expense is primarily due to the extinguishment of $439.0 million of mortgage debt with a weighted average interest rate of 5.7% during the twelve months ended June 30, 2017. This was partially offset by an increase in interest due to increased borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan, as well as interest on our Senior Unsecured Notes, which were issued in August 2016.

The following table summarizes our interest expense on related borrowings:

⁽¹⁾ Includes facility fees of approximately $0.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization

During the twelve months ended June 30, 2017, we acquired 179 properties representing an investment in real estate of $705.1 million and we disposed of 253 properties with a gross investment of $650.4 million. Our net acquisitions (based on investment in real estate) during this period were offset by a reduction in our real estate investment value due to impairment charges during the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2017 on properties that remain in our portfolio and a higher real estate value of properties held for sale compared to the prior period. Properties held for sale are no longer depreciated. As a result, depreciation and amortization remained flat. The following table summarizes our depreciation and amortization expense:



	Three Months Ended June 30,
(In Thousands)	2017		2016
Depreciation of real estate assets	$	53,148	$	52,533
Other depreciation	139		97
Amortization of lease intangibles	10,933		11,633
Total depreciation and amortization	$	64,220	$	64,263

Impairment

Impairment charges for the three months ended June 30, 2017 primarily consist of $11.8 million on held and used properties, including $9.1 million on vacant properties not classified as held for sale. Impairment charges also include $2.9 million on properties held for sale, including $2.6 million on vacant held for sale properties.

For the same period in 2016, impairment charges included $2.3 million on a single property within the distribution industry, $6.3 million in properties held for sale and $4.7 million from intangible lease write-offs.

Loss on debt extinguishment

During the three months ended June 30, 2017, we extinguished $1.9 million of mortgage debt related to one loan and recorded a de minimis gain. For the same period in 2016, we extinguished $391.4 million of mortgage debt and recorded a gain on debt extinguishment of $14.0 million.

Gain on disposition of assets

For the three months ended June 30, 2017, the gain on disposition of 48 properties included $7.1 million from the sale of five Shopko properties, $4.9 million from the sale of 11 quick service and casual dining restaurants and $2.1 million from the sale of two building materials properties. For the same period in 2016, the gain on disposition of 32 properties included $4.5 million from the sale of five Shopko properties and $4.5 million from the sale of nine quick service and five casual dining restaurants.

REVENUES

Rentals

The decrease in rental revenue for the comparative period was primarily attributable to tenant credit losses in the first quarter of 2017, where the majority of our nonperforming properties were in the convenience store and movie theater industries. As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, 53 and 43 of our properties, representing approximately 2.1% and 1.7% of our owned properties, were vacant and not generating rent. Of the 53 vacant properties, 28 were held for sale as of June 30, 2017.

The decrease from tenant credit losses was partially offset by the acquisition of 179 properties with an investment in real estate of $705.1 million during the twelve-month period ended June 30, 2017, offset by the sale of 253 properties during the same period with an investment value of $650.4 million. Non-cash rentals for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016 were $15.4 million and $13.2 million, respectively. These amounts represent 4.8% and 4.1% of total rental revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively.

EXPENSES

General and administrative

The period-over-period increase in general and administrative expenses is primarily due to $11.1 million in severance related costs, comprising $4.2 million of cash compensation and $6.9 million of non-cash compensation, recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2017 following the departure of our chief executive officer and $1.3 million of bad debt expense recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2017 in relation to 21 casual dining restaurant properties, for which the rent has been determined to be uncollectible. The period-over-period increase was partially offset by the $1.7 million loss recognized in the comparable prior period related to swap termination fees.

Property costs

The increase in property costs is primarily due to an increase in non-reimbursable property taxes of $3.9 million that resulted from the increase in vacant properties as compared to the same period a year ago, as well as tenant credit issues. As of June 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively, 53 and 43 of our properties, representing approximately 2.1% and 1.7% of our owned properties, were vacant. Additionally, tenant reimbursable property costs for the six months ended June 30, 2017 were $10.2 million, an increase from $9.1 million for the same period in 2016.

During the six months ended June 30, 2017, we extinguished $51.2 million of mortgage debt related to two loans and recorded a de minimis loss. For the same period in 2016, we extinguished $495.2 million of mortgage debt and recorded a gain on debt extinguishment of $8.7 million.

Gain on disposition of assets

For the six months ended June 30, 2017, the gain on disposition of 105 properties included $14.1 million from the sale of eight Shopko properties, $6.2 million from the sale of 17 quick service and casual dining restaurants, $4.5 million on the sale of a multi-tenant property and $4.1 million from the sale of 34 convenience store properties. For the same period in 2016, we disposed of 65 properties and recorded gains totaling $21.3 million.

Lease Expirations

The following table sets forth a summary schedule of expiration dates for leases in place as of June 30, 2017. As of June 30, 2017, the weighted average remaining non-cancelable initial term of our leases (based on Contractual Rent) was 10.3 years. The information set forth in the table assumes that tenants do not exercise renewal options and or any early termination rights:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

In February 2016, Spirit's Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program, under which the Company may repurchase up to $200.0 million of its outstanding common stock. As of August 3, 2017, the Company has repurchased, in open market transactions, 26.3 million shares of its outstanding common stock,at a weighted average price of $7.59 per share, equivalent to the $200.0 million authorized.

SHORT-TERM LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

On a short-term basis, our principal demands for funds are for financing of acquisitions, distributions to stockholders, payment of interest and principal on our indebtedness and operating expenses (including property improvements and re-leasing costs). We expect to fund these demands primarily through cash provided by operating activities and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2017, $480.0 million borrowing capacity was available under the Revolving Credit Facility along with $52.3 million in cash reserves on deposit with lenders and $11.2 million in cash and cash equivalents.

LONG-TERM LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURSES

We plan to meet our long-term capital needs, including long-term financing of property acquisitions, by issuing registered debt or equity securities, obtaining asset level financing and occasionally by issuing fixed rate secured or unsecured notes and bonds.

We have a shelf registration statement on file with the SEC under which we may offer shares of our common stock from time to time in amounts, at prices and on terms to be announced when and if such shares are offered. We may issue common stock when we believe our share price is at a level that allows for any offering proceeds to be accretively invested into additional properties or to permanently finance properties that were initially financed by our Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan or other indebtedness.

In the future, some of our property acquisitions could be made by exchanging partnership units in our Operating Partnership for property owned by third parties. These partnership units would be exchangeable for cash or, at our election, shares of our common stock.

We continually evaluate alternative financing and believe that we can obtain financing on reasonable terms. However, we cannot assure that we will have access to the capital markets at times and on terms that are acceptable to us.

DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN DEBT

The following descriptions of debt should be read in conjunction with footnote 4 to the combined, consolidated financial statements herein.

Spirit Master Funding Program

The Spirit Master Funding Program is an asset-backed securitization platform through which we raise capital by issuing non-recourse net lease mortgage notes collateralized by commercial real estate, net leases and mortgage loans. The commercial real estate is managed by the Company in our capacity as property manager. Rental and mortgage receipts with respect to the leases and mortgage loans are deposited with the indenture trustee, who first utilizes these funds to satisfy the debt service requirements on the notes and any fees and costs of administration of the Spirit Master Funding Program. Any remaining funds are remitted to the issuers on the monthly note payment date.

Upon satisfaction of certain conditions, we may, from time to time, sell or exchange real estate properties or mortgage loans from the Collateral Pools. Proceeds from the sale of these assets are held on deposit by the indenture trustee until a qualifying substitution is made or the amounts are distributed as an early repayment of principal. At June 30, 2017, $34.0 million was held on deposit and classified as restricted cash within deferred costs and other assets, net in our consolidated balance sheets.

The Spirit Master Funding Program consists of two separate securitization trusts that have one or multiple bankruptcy-remote, special purpose entities as issuers of the Master Trust 2013 and Master Trust 2014 notes. Each issuer is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of ours. All outstanding series of Master Trust Notes were rated investment grade as of June 30, 2017.

The Master Trust Notes as of June 30, 2017 are summarized below (principal in thousands):

Convertible Notes

The Convertible Notes are comprised of two series of notes: $402.5 million aggregate principal amount of 2.875% convertible notes maturing on May 15, 2019 and $345.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.75% convertible notes

maturing on May 15, 2021. Interest on the Convertible Notes is payable semiannually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year. As of June 30, 2017, the carrying amount of the Convertible Notes was $709.2 million, which is net of discounts (for the value of the embedded conversion feature) and unamortized deferred financing costs.

Holders may convert notes of either series prior to November 15, 2018, in the case of the 2019 Notes, or November 15, 2020, in the case of the 2021 Notes, only under specific circumstances. On or after November 15, 2018, in the case of the 2019 Notes, or November 15, 2020, in the case of the 2021 Notes, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date of the Convertible Notes, holders may convert the Convertible Notes of the applicable series at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. If we undergo a fundamental change (as defined in the Convertible Notes supplemental indentures), holders may require us to repurchase all or any portion of their notes at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest. Upon conversion, we will pay or deliver cash, shares of common stock or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at our election. As of June 30, 2017, the conversion rate was 77.0592 per $1,000 principal note.

Revolving Credit Facility

As of June 30, 2017, the borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility was $800.0 million, which may be increased up to $1.0 billion by exercising an accordion feature, subject to satisfying certain requirements and obtaining additional lender commitments. The Revolving Credit Facility also includes a $50.0 million sub-limit for swing-line loans and up to $60.0 million available for issuances of letters of credit. Swing-line loans and letters of credit reduce availability under the Revolving Credit Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis. the Revolving Credit Facility has an initial maturity of March 31, 2019, which is extendable for one year at our option. As of June 30, 2017, the Revolving Credit Facility bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.25% based on our credit rating and incurred a facility fee of 0.25% per annum. As of June 30, 2017, $320.0 million in borrowings were outstanding and $480.0 million of borrowing capacity was available under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Amounts available for borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility remain subject to compliance with certain customary restrictive covenants. As of June 30, 2017, the Corporation and the Operating Partnership were in compliance with these covenants.

Term Loan

As of June 30, 2017, the borrowing capacity under the Term Loan was $420.0 million and may be increased up to $600.0 million by exercising an accordion feature, subject to obtaining additional lender commitments. The Term Loan has an initial maturity date of November 2, 2018, which may be extended at our option pursuant to two one-year extension options, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and payment of an extension fee. As of June 30, 2017, the Term Loan bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.35% based on our credit rating and the Term Loan was fully drawn.

Amounts available for borrowing under the Term Loan remain subject to compliance with certain customary restrictive covenants. As of June 30, 2017, the Corporation and the Operating Partnership were in compliance with these financial covenants.

Senior Unsecured Notes

The Senior Unsecured Notes of the Operating Partnership have an aggregate principal amount of $300.0 million and are guaranteed by the Corporation. The Senior Unsecured Notes accrue interest at a rate of 4.45% per year, payable on March 15 and September 15 of each year, until the maturity date of September 15, 2026. The Company filed a registration statement with the SEC to exchange the private Senior Unsecured Notes for registered Senior Unsecured Notes with substantially identical terms, which became effective April 14, 2017. All $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of private Senior Unsecured Notes were tendered in the exchange for registered Senior Unsecured Notes.

The Senior Unsecured Notes are redeemable in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the Operating Partnership’s option, at a redemption price equal to the sum of: an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Unsecured Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest and liquidated damages, if any, up to, but not including, the redemption date; and a make-whole premium calculated in accordance with the indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the Senior Unsecured Notes are redeemed on or after June 15, 2026, the redemption price will not include a make-whole premium.

In connection with the issuance of the Senior Unsecured Notes, the Corporation and the Operating Partnership remain subject to compliance with certain customary restrictive covenants. As of June 30, 2017, the Corporation and the Operating Partnership were in compliance with these financial covenants.

CMBS

We may use long-term, fixed-rate debt to finance our properties on a “match-funded” basis. In such events, we generally seek to use asset level financing that bears annual interest less than the annual rent on the related lease(s) and that matures prior to the expiration of such lease(s). In general, the obligor of our asset level debt is a special purpose entity that holds the real estate and other collateral securing the indebtedness. Each special purpose entity is a bankruptcy remote separate legal entity, and is the sole owner of its assets and solely responsible for its liabilities other than typical non-recurring covenants.

As of June 30, 2017, we had 21 fixed rate CMBS loans with $476.4 million of outstanding principal, a weighted average contractual interest rate of 5.75% and a weighted average maturity of 3.7 years. Approximately 46% of this debt is partially amortizing and requires a balloon payment at maturity. These balances include four CMBS fixed-rate loans that are in default, discussed further below. The following table shows the outstanding principal of the CMBS fixed-rate loans excluding the defaulted loans as of June 30, 2017 (dollars in thousands):

CMBS Liquidity Matters

As of June 30, 2017, we are in default on four CMBS fixed-rate loans due to the underperformance of the six properties securing the loans. The aggregate principal balance under the defaulted loans was $53.6 million, including $10.7 million of accrued interest. We believe the value of the six properties is less than the related debt. As a result, we have notified the lender of the special purpose entity that we anticipate either surrendering these properties to the lender or selling them in exchange for relieving the indebtedness, including any accrued interest, encumbering the properties.

The following table provides key elements of the defaulted mortgage loans as of June 30, 2017 (dollars in thousands):

⁽³⁾ The CMBS - fixed-rate payment balance in 2017 includes $53.6 million, including $10.7 million of capitalized interest, for the acceleration of principal payable following an event of default under four CMBS fixed-rate loans with stated maturities in 2017.

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS

There were no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to the information regarding specified contractual obligations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, as filed with the SEC.

We may enter into commitments to purchase goods and services in connection with the operations of our properties. Those commitments generally have terms of one-year or less and reflect expenditure levels comparable to our historical expenditures.

DISTRIBUTION POLICY

Distributions from our current or accumulated earnings and profits are generally classified as ordinary income, whereas distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits, to the extent of a stockholder’s federal income tax basis in our common stock, are generally characterized as a return of capital. Distributions in excess of a stockholder’s federal income tax basis in our common stock are generally characterized as capital gain.

We are required to distribute 90% of our taxable income (subject to certain adjustments and excluding net capital gains) on an annual basis to maintain qualification as a REIT for federal income tax purposes and are required to pay federal income tax at regular corporate rates to the extent we distribute less than 100% of our taxable income (including capital gains).

We intend to make distributions that will enable us to meet the distribution requirements applicable to REITs and to eliminate or minimize our obligation to pay corporate-level federal income and excise taxes.

Any distributions will be at the sole discretion of our board of directors, and their form, timing and amount, if any, will depend upon a number of factors, including our actual and projected results of operations, FFO, liquidity, cash flows and financial condition, the revenue we actually receive from our properties, our operating expenses, our debt service requirements, our capital expenditures, prohibitions and other limitations under our financing arrangements, our REIT taxable income, the annual REIT distribution requirements, applicable laws and such other factors as our board of directors deems relevant.

Cash Flows

The following table presents a summary of our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2017 and June 30, 2016, respectively:



	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2017			2016			Change
	(in Thousands)
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	195,978		$	176,980		$	18,998
Net cash (used in) provided by investing activities	(22,926		)	491			(23,417		)
Net cash used in financing activities	(171,865		)	(169,851		)	(2,014		)
Net increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	1,187		$	7,620		$	(6,433	)

As of June 30, 2017, we had $11.2 million of cash and cash equivalents as compared to $10.1 million as of December 31, 2016.

Operating Activities

Our cash flows from operating activities are primarily dependent upon the occupancy level of our portfolio, the rental rates specified in our leases, the collectability of rent and the level of our operating expenses and other general and administrative costs.

The increase in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to net changes in operating assets and liabilities of $8.5 million and decreases in cash paid for interest of $15.4 million, debt extinguishment costs of $10.6 million, restructuring charge payments of $3.3 million and payments to terminate interest rate swaps of $1.7 million. This was partially offset by a reduction in cash revenue of $8.3 million, driven by tenant credit losses and the timing of acquisitions and dispositions, and increases in property costs of $4.7 million and general and administrative expenses of $3.1 million.

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities is generally used to fund property acquisitions, for investments in loans receivable and, to a lessor extent, for capital expenditures. Cash provided by investing activities generally relates to the disposition of real estate and other assets.

Net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017 included $218.1 million to fund the acquisition of 35 properties (one of which was acquired through a $2.7 million non-cash 1031 Exchange) and capitalized real estate expenditures of $23.3 million, mostly offset by cash proceeds of $239.1 million from the disposition of 105 properties (two of which were disposed of through a $2.7 million 1031 Exchange). Net cash used by investing activities also includes the the transfer of $19.6 million in net sales proceeds to restricted cash accounts and collections of principal on loans receivable and real estate assets under direct financing leases totaling $2.1 million.

During the same period in 2016, net cash provided by investing activities included proceeds of $189.0 million from the disposition of 65 properties (five of which were disposed of through a $24.4 million 1031 Exchange) partially offset by $235.3 million to fund the acquisition of 125 properties (11 of which were acquired through a $64.3 million non-cash 1031 Exchange) and capitalized real estate expenditures of $6.0 million. Net cash provided by investing activities also included the transfer of sales proceeds to restricted cash accounts of $3.9 million and collections of principal on loans receivable and real estate assets under direct financing leases totaling $16.8 million.

Financing Activities

Generally, our net cash used in and provided by financing activities is impacted by our net borrowings and common stock offerings, including sales of our common stock under our ATM Program, common stock offerings, borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan, and issuances of net-lease mortgage notes under our Spirit Master Funding Program.

Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily attributable to the repurchase of shares of common stock totaling $203.8 million, $3.3 million of which related to net settlement of restricted shares, and the payment of dividends to equity owners of $174.7 million, both of which were paid primarily through

sources from our operating cash flows and net borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility. These amounts were partially offset by net borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility of $234.0 million.

During the same period in 2016, net cash used in financing activities was primarily attributable to repayment of our indebtedness of $460.8 million and the payment of dividends to equity owners of $155.0 million, both of which were paid primarily through operating cash flows. These amounts were partially offset by the issuance and sale of 3.0 million shares of our common stock in an underwritten public offering and the sale of 6.6 million shares of our common stock under our ATM Program for aggregate net proceeds of $402.0 million, and net borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan of $45.0 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2017, we did not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See footnote 2 to the consolidated financial statements herein.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

FFO AND AFFO

We calculate FFO in accordance with the standards established by NAREIT. FFO represents net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP), excluding real estate-related depreciation and amortization, impairment charges and net losses (gains) from property dispositions. FFO is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure. We use FFO as a supplemental performance measure because we believe that FFO is beneficial to investors as a starting point in measuring our operational performance. Specifically, in excluding real estate related depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from property dispositions and impairment charges, which do not relate to or are not indicative of operating performance, FFO provides a performance measure that, when compared year-over-year, captures trends in occupancy rates, rental rates and operating costs. We also believe that, as a widely recognized measure of the performance of equity REITs, FFO will be used by investors as a basis to compare our operating performance with that of other equity REITs. However, because FFO excludes depreciation and amortization and does not capture the changes in the value of our properties that result from use or market conditions, all of which have real economic effects and could materially impact our results from operations, the utility of FFO as a measure of our performance is limited. In addition, other equity REITs may not calculate FFO as we do, and, accordingly, our FFO may not be comparable to such other equity REITs’ FFO. Accordingly, FFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders as a measure of our performance.

AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure of operating performance used by many companies in the REIT industry. Accordingly, AFFO should be considered only as a supplement to net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders as a measure of our performance. We adjust FFO to eliminate the impact of certain items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating performance, including restructuring costs, other general and administrative costs associated with relocation of our headquarters, transaction costs associated with our proposed spin-off, default interest on non-recourse mortgage indebtedness, debt extinguishment gains (losses), transaction costs incurred in connection with the acquisition of real estate investments subject to existing leases and certain non-cash items. These certain non-cash items include non-cash revenues (comprised of straight-line rents, amortization of above and below market rent on our leases, amortization of lease incentives, amortization of net premium (discount) on loans receivable and amortization of capitalized lease transaction costs), non-cash interest expense (comprised of amortization of deferred financing costs and amortization of net debt discount/premium) and non-cash compensation expense (stock-based compensation expense). In addition, other equity REITs may not calculate AFFO as we do, and, accordingly, our AFFO may not be comparable to such other equity REITs' AFFO. AFFO does not represent cash generated from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, is not necessarily indicative of cash available to fund cash needs and should not be considered as an alternative to net income determined in accordance with GAAP as a performance measure. A reconciliation of our FFO and AFFO to net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP) is included in the financial information accompanying this report.

Adjusted EBITDA and Annualized Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA modified to include other adjustments to GAAP net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders for restructuring charges, real estate acquisition costs, impairment losses, gains/losses from the sale of real estate and debt transactions and other items that we do not consider to be indicative of our on-going operating performance. We focus our business plans to enable us to sustain increasing shareholder value. Accordingly, we believe that excluding these items, which are not key drivers of our investment decisions and may cause short-term fluctuations in net income, provides a useful supplemental measure to investors and analysts in assessing the net earnings contribution of our real estate portfolio. Because these measures do not represent net income (loss) that is computed in accordance with GAAP, they should not be considered alternatives to net income (loss) or as an indicator of financial performance. A reconciliation of net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders (computed in accordance with GAAP) to EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Annualized Adjusted EBITDA is included in the financial information accompanying this report.

Adjusted Debt

Adjusted Debt represents interest bearing debt (reported in accordance with GAAP) adjusted to exclude unamortized debt discount/premium and deferred financing costs, as further reduced by cash and cash equivalents and cash reserves on deposit with lenders as additional security. By excluding unamortized debt discount/premium and deferred financing costs, cash and cash equivalents, and cash reserves on deposit with lenders as additional security, the result provides an estimate of the contractual amount of borrowed capital to be repaid, net of cash available to repay it. We believe this calculation constitutes a beneficial supplemental non-GAAP financial disclosure to investors in understanding our financial condition.

Adjusted Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental non-GAAP financial measure we use to evaluate the level of borrowed capital being used to increase the potential return of our real estate investments, and a proxy for a measure we believe is used by many lenders and ratings agencies to evaluate our ability to repay and service our debt obligations over time. We believe the ratio is a beneficial disclosure to investors as a supplemental means of evaluating our ability to meet obligations senior to those of our equity holders. Our computation of this ratio may differ from the methodology used by other equity REITs, and, therefore, may not be comparable to such other REITs. A reconciliation of interest bearing debt (reported in accordance with GAAP) to Adjusted Debt is included in the financial information accompanying this report.

Initial Cash Yield

We calculate initial cash yield from properties by dividing the annualized first month base rent (excluding any future rent escalations provided for in the lease) by the gross investment in the related properties. Gross investment for an acquired property represents gross acquisition costs including the contracted purchase price and related capitalized transaction costs. Initial cash yield is a measure (expressed as a percentage) of the contractual cash rent expected to be earned on an acquired property in the first year. Because it excludes any future rent increases or additional rent that may be contractually provided for in the lease, as well as any other income or fees that may be earned from lease modifications or asset dispositions, initial cash yield does not represent the annualized investment rate of return of our acquired properties. Additionally, actual contractual cash rent earned from the properties acquired may differ from the initial cash yield based on other factors, including difficulties collecting anticipated rental revenues and unanticipated expenses at these properties that we cannot pass on to tenants, as well as the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Capitalization Rate

We calculate the capitalization rate for disposed properties as the annualized cash rent on the date of disposition divided by the gross sales price. For multi-tenant properties, non-reimbursable property costs are deducted from the annualized cash rent prior to computing the capitalization rate. Annualized cash rent for a disposed property represents the annualized monthly contractual cash rent under the related lease at time of disposition.

FFO and AFFO

The following is a reconciliation of net income attributable to common stockholders (which we believe is the most comparable GAAP measure) to FFO and AFFO. Also presented is information regarding distributions paid to common stockholders and the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding used for the basic and diluted computations per share (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to financial market risks, especially interest rate risk. Interest rates and other factors, such as occupancy, rental rates and the financial condition of our tenants, influence our performance more so than does inflation. Changes in interest rates do not necessarily correlate with inflation rates or changes in inflation rates. As described in Item 2, we generally offer leases that provide for payments of base rent with scheduled increases and, to a lesser extent, contingent rent based on a percentage of the tenant’s gross sales to help mitigate the effect of inflation. Because the properties in our portfolio are generally leased to tenants under triple-net leases, our exposure to rising property operating costs due to inflation is mitigated.

Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors, including governmental monetary policies and domestic and global economic and political conditions, which are beyond our control. Our operating results depend heavily on the difference between the revenue from our assets and the interest expense incurred on our borrowings. We may incur additional variable rate debt in the future, including amounts that we may borrow under our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan. In addition, decreases in interest rates may lead to additional competition for the acquisition of real estate due to a reduction in desirable alternative income-producing investments, which may lead to a decrease in the yields on real estate we have targeted for acquisition. In such circumstances, if we are not able to offset the decrease in yields by obtaining lower interest costs on our borrowings, our results of operations will be adversely affected. Significant increases in interest rates may also have an adverse impact on our earnings if we are unable to acquire real estate with rental rates high enough to offset the increase in interest rates on our borrowings.

In the event interest rates rise significantly or there is an economic downturn, defaults may increase and result in credit losses, which may adversely affect our liquidity and operating results. In a decreasing interest rate environment, borrowers are generally more likely to prepay their loans in order to obtain financing at lower interest rates. However, the vast majority of our mortgage notes payable have prepayment clauses that make refinancing during a decreasing interest rate environment uneconomical. Investments in our mortgage loans receivable, however, have significant prepayment protection in the form of yield maintenance provisions, which provide us with substantial yield protection in a decreasing interest rate environment with respect to this portion of our investment portfolio.

The objective of our interest rate risk management policy is to match fund fixed-rate assets with fixed-rate liabilities. As of June 30, 2017, our assets were primarily long-term, fixed-rate leases (though most have scheduled rental increases during the terms of the leases). As of June 30, 2017, $3.2 billion of our indebtedness was fixed-rate, consisting of our Master Trust Notes, fixed-rate CMBS loans, Senior Unsecured Notes and Convertible Notes, with a weighted average stated interest rate of 4.67%, excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discounts/premiums. As of June 30, 2017, $740.0 million of our indebtedness was variable-rate, consisting of our Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan, with a weighted average stated interest rate of 2.50%, excluding amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discounts/premiums. If one-month LIBOR as of June 30, 2017 increased by 100 basis points, or 1.0%, the resulting increase in annual interest expense with respect to the $740.0 million outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan would impact our future earnings and cash flows by $7.4 million.

The estimated fair values of our debt instruments have been derived based on market quotes for comparable instruments or discounted cash flow analysis using estimates of the amount and timing of future cash flows, market rates and credit spreads. The debt instrument balances as of June 30, 2017 are as follows (in thousands):

Term Loan, net ⁽¹⁾	418,880		420,042

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

From time-to-time, we may be subject to certain claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of business, the outcome of which cannot be determined at this time. We are not currently a party as plaintiff or defendant to any legal proceedings that we believe to be material or that individually or in the aggregate would be expected to have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations if determined adversely to us.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Please review the Risk Factors disclosed in the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 13 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 and filed with the SEC on February 24, 2017, as well as the supplemental risk factors below. There were no other material changes to the risk factors as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

A substantial number of our properties are leased to one tenant, which may result in increased risk due to tenant and industry concentration.

Currently, we lease 105 properties to Shopko, primarily pursuant to three master leases. The Shopko leases are guaranteed by Specialty Retail Shops Holding Corp., the parent company of Shopko. Revenues generated from Shopko represented 7.9% of our Contractual Rent for the month ended June 30, 2017. Because a significant portion of our revenues are derived from rental revenues received from Shopko, any default, breach or delay in the payment of rent by Shopko may materially and adversely affect us.

•

The retail industry in which Shopko operates is highly competitive, which could limit its growth opportunities and reduce profitability. Shopko competes with other discount retail merchants as well as mass merchants, catalog merchants, internet retailers and other general merchandise, apparel and household merchandise retailers. It faces strong competition from large national discount retailers, such as Walmart, Kmart and Target, and mid-tier merchants such as Kohl’s and J.C. Penney.


•	Shopko stores are geographically concentrated in the Midwest, Pacific Northwest, North Central and Western Mountain states. As a result, adverse economic conditions in these regions may materially and adversely affect its results of operations and retail sales.


•	The seasonality in retail operations may cause fluctuations in Shopko’s quarterly performance and results of operations and could adversely affect its cash flows.


•	Shopko stores are dependent on the efficient functioning of its distribution networks. Problems that cause delays or interruptions in the distribution networks could materially and adversely affect its results of operations.


•	Shopko stores depend on attracting and retaining quality employees. Many employees are entry-level or part-time with historically high rates of turnover.

Given recent liquidity events and other challenges, including bankruptcies, impacting the retail industry, we have increased our scrutiny on our tenants in retail industries, including Shopko. If Shopko experiences a decline in its business, financial condition, results of operations or loses access to liquidity, it may request discounts or deferrals on the rents it pays to us, seek to terminate its master leases with us or close certain of its stores, all of which could decrease the amount of revenue we receive from it.

While we seek to reduce the tenant concentration of Shopko, we may have difficulty in selling or leasing to other tenants the properties currently leased by Shopko, due to, among other things, market demand or tax constraints. Furthermore, we can provide no assurance that we will deploy the proceeds from the disposition of any Shopko properties in a manner that would produce comparable or better yields.

Decrease in demand for retail and restaurant space may materially and adversely affect us.

As of June 30, 2017, leases representing approximately 77% and 17% of our Contractual Rent were with tenants in the retail and restaurant industries, respectively, and we may acquire additional retail and restaurant properties in the future. Accordingly, decreases in the demand for retail and/or restaurant spaces adversely impact us. The market for retail and restaurant space has previously been, and could continue to be, adversely affected by weakness in the national, regional and local economies, the adverse financial condition of some large retail and restaurant companies, the ongoing consolidation in the retail and restaurant industries, the excess amount of retail and restaurant space in a number of markets and, in the case of the retail industry, increasing consumer purchases through catalogs or over the Internet. In recent years a number of companies in the retail industry, including some of our tenants, have declared bankruptcy, have gone out of business or have significantly reduced the number of their retail stores. In particular, we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, challenges with some of our general merchandise retailers through increased credit losses.

To the extent that the adverse conditions listed above continue, they are likely to negatively affect market rents for retail and restaurant space, thereby reducing rents payable to us, and they may lead to increased vacancy rates at our properties and diminish our ability to attract and retain retail and restaurant tenants.

The proposed spin-off of our properties leased to Shopko and assets that collateralize Master Trust 2014 into an independent, publicly-traded REIT may not be completed on the currently contemplated timeline or terms, or at all, and may not achieve the intended benefits.

On August 3, 2017, we announced a plan to spin off our interests in our properties leased to Shopko and assets that collateralize Master Trust 2014 into an independent, publicly traded REIT. We expect to complete the spin-off in the first half of 2018, although there can be no assurance as to whether or when the spin-off will occur. The spin-off is subject to various conditions, including declaration by the SEC that SpinCo's registation statement on Form 10 is effective, customary third-party consents and final approval and declaration of the distribution by our Board of Directors. Such conditions and other unforeseen developments, including in the debt or equity markets or general market conditions, could delay or prevent the spin-off or cause the spin-off to occur on terms or conditions that are less favorable and/or different than anticipated. We also expected to incur sigificant expenses in connection with the spin-off.

We may not be able to achieve the full strategic and financial benefits that we anticipate to result from the spin-off, or such benefits may be delayed or not occur at all. Additionally, we may experience negative reactions from financial markets if we do not complete the spin-off in a reasonable time period. Following the spin-off, the combined value of the common stock of the two publicly-traded companies may not be equal to or greater than what the value of our common stock would have been had the spin-off not occurred.
