EXPLANATORY NOTE

Combined Reporting
This report combines the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 of VEREIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation, and VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, of which VEREIT, Inc. is the sole general partner. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this report to “we,” “us,” “our,” “VEREIT,” the “Company” or the “General Partner” mean VEREIT, Inc. together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P., and all references to the “Operating Partnership” or “OP” mean VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P. together with its consolidated subsidiaries.
As the sole general partner of VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P., VEREIT, Inc. has the full, exclusive and complete responsibility for the Operating Partnership’s day-to-day management and control.
We believe combining the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q of VEREIT, Inc. and VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P. into this single report results in the following benefits:
•enhancing investors’ understanding of the Company and the Operating Partnership by enabling investors to view the business as a whole in the same manner as management views and operates the business;
•eliminating duplicative disclosure and providing a more streamlined and readable presentation since a substantial portion of the disclosure applies to both the Company and the Operating Partnership; and
•creating time and cost efficiencies through the preparation of one combined report instead of two separate reports.
There are a few differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership, which are reflected in the disclosure in this report. We believe it is important to understand the differences between the Company and the Operating Partnership in the context of how we operate as an interrelated consolidated company. VEREIT, Inc. is a real estate investment trust whose only material asset is its ownership of partnership interests of the Operating Partnership. As a result, VEREIT, Inc. does not conduct business itself, other than acting as the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership, issuing equity or debt from time to time and guaranteeing certain unsecured debt of the Operating Partnership and certain of its subsidiaries. The Operating Partnership holds substantially all of the assets of the Company and holds the ownership interests in the Company’s joint ventures. The Operating Partnership conducts the operations of the business and is structured as a partnership with no publicly traded equity. Except for net proceeds from public equity or debt issuances by VEREIT, Inc., which are generally contributed to the Operating Partnership in exchange for partnership units, the Operating Partnership generates the capital required by the Company’s business through the Operating Partnership’s operations, by the Operating Partnership’s direct or indirect incurrence of indebtedness or through the issuance of partnership units. To help investors understand the significant differences between VEREIT, Inc. and the Operating Partnership, there are separate sections in this report that separately discuss VEREIT, Inc. and the Operating Partnership, including the consolidated financial statements and certain notes to the consolidated financial statements as well as separate disclosures in Item 4. Controls and Procedures and Exhibit 31 and Exhibit 32 certifications. As sole general partner with control of the Operating Partnership, VEREIT, Inc. consolidates the Operating Partnership for financial reporting purposes. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of VEREIT, Inc. and VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P. are the same on their respective consolidated financial statements. The separate discussions of VEREIT, Inc. and VEREIT Operating Partnership, L.P. in this report should be read in conjunction with each other to understand the results of the Company on a consolidated basis and how management operates the Company.

Reverse Stock Split
The Company effected a one-for-five reverse stock split of shares of Common Stock after markets closed on December 17, 2020, whereby every five shares of VEREIT's issued and outstanding shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, were converted into one share of common stock, $0.01 par value per share. A corresponding reverse split of the outstanding common partnership interests in the Operating Partnership also took effect on December 17, 2020. All common stock/unit and per share/unit data for all periods presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been updated to give effect to the reverse stock split.

Note 1 – Organization
VEREIT is a Maryland corporation, incorporated on December 2, 2010, that qualified as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning in the taxable year ended December 31, 2011. The OP is a Delaware limited partnership of which the General Partner is the sole general partner. VEREIT’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), and its 6.70% Series F Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Series F Preferred Stock”) trade on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) under the trading symbols, “VER” and “VER“VER PRF,,” respectively. As used herein, the terms the “Company,” “we,” “our” and “us” refer to VEREIT, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including the OP.
VEREIT is a full-service real estate operating company which owns and manages one of the largest portfolios of single-tenant commercial properties in the U.S. VEREIT’s business model provides equity capital to creditworthy corporations in return for long-term leases on their properties. The Company actively manages its portfolio considering a number of metrics including property type, concentration and key economic factors for appropriate balance and diversity.
Substantially all of the Company’s operations are conducted through the OP. VEREIT is the sole general partner and holder of 99.9% of the common equity interests in the OP as of June 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. Under the limited partnership agreement of the OP, as amended (the “LPA”), after holding common units of limited partner interests in the OP (“OP Units”) or Series F Preferred Units of limited partnership interests in the OP (“Series F Preferred Units”), for a period of one year and meeting the other requirements in the LPA, unless we otherwise consent to an earlier redemption, holders have the right to redeem the units for the cash value of a corresponding number of shares of Common Stock or Series F Preferred Stock, as applicable, or, at our option, a corresponding number of shares of Common Stock or Series F Preferred Stock, as applicable, subject to adjustment pursuant to the terms of the LPA. The remaining rights of the holders of OP Units are limited, however, and do not include the ability to replace the General Partner or to approve the sale, purchase or refinancing of the OP’s assets.
The actions of the OP and its relationship with the General Partner are governed by the LPA. The General Partner does not have any significant assets other than its investment in the OP. Therefore, the assets and liabilities of the General Partner and the OP are the same. Additionally, pursuant to the LPA, all administrative expenses and expenses associated with the formation, continuity, existence and operation of the General Partner incurred by the General Partner on the OP’s behalf shall be treated as expenses of the OP. Further, when the General Partner issues any equity instrument that has been approved by the General Partner’s Board of Directors, the LPA requires the OP to issue to the General Partner equity instruments with substantially similar terms, to protect the integrity of the Company’s umbrella partnership REIT structure, pursuant to which each holder of interests in the OP has a proportionate economic interest in the OP reflecting its capital contributions thereto. OP Units and Series F Preferred Units issued to the General Partner are referred to as “General Partner OP Units” and “General Partner Series F Preferred Units,” respectively. OP Units and Series F Preferred Units issued to parties other than the General Partner are referred to as “Limited Partner OP Units” and “Limited Partner Series F Preferred Units,” respectively. The LPA also provides that the OP issue debt with terms and provisions consistent with debt issued by the General Partner. The LPA will be amended to provide for the issuance of any additional class of equivalent equity instruments to the extent the General Partner’s Board of Directors authorizes the issuance of any new class of equity securities.
Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Accounting
The consolidated financial statements of the Company presented herein include the accounts of the General Partner and its consolidated subsidiaries, including the OP. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The information furnished includes all adjustments and accruals of a normal recurring nature, which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year or any subsequent interim period.
These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 20192020 of the Company, which are included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 26, 2020.24, 2021.

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries and a consolidated joint venture. The portion of the consolidated joint venture not owned by the Company is presented as non-controlling interest in VEREIT’s and the OP’s consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income (loss) and statements of changes in equity. In addition, certain third parties have been issued OP Units and Series F Preferred Units. Holders of OP Units are considered to be non-controlling interest holders in the OP and their ownership interest in the limited partner’s share is presented as non-controlling interests in VEREIT’s consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income (loss) and statements of changes in equity. Further, a portion of the earnings and losses of the OP are allocated to non-controlling interest holders based on their respective ownership percentages. Equity is reallocated between controlling and noncontrolling interests in the OP upon a change in ownership. At the end of each annual reporting period, noncontrolling interests in the OP are adjusted to reflect their ownership percentage in the OP through a reallocation between controlling and noncontrolling interests in the OP, as applicable. As of each of June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2019,2020, there were approximately 0.80.2 million Limited Partner OP Units issued and outstanding, respectively. As of each of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were 49,766 Limited Partner Series F Preferred Units issued and outstanding.outstanding, respectively.
For legal entities being evaluated for consolidation, the Company must first determine whether the interests that it holds and fees it receives qualify as variable interests in the entity. A variable interest is an investment or other interest that will absorb portions of an entity’s expected losses or receive portions of the entity’s expected residual returns. The Company’s evaluation includes consideration of fees paid to the Company where the Company acts as a decision maker or service provider to the entity being evaluated. If the Company determines that it holds a variable interest in an entity, it evaluates whether that entity is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). VIEs are entities where investors lack sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordinated financial support or where equity investors, as a group, lack one of the following characteristics: (a) the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance, (b) the obligation to absorb the expected losses of the entity, or (c) the right to receive the expected returns of the entity. The Company consolidates entities that are not VIEs if it has a majority voting interest or other rights that result in effectively controlling the entity.
The Company then qualitatively assesses whether it is (or is not) the primary beneficiary of a VIE, which is generally defined as the party who has a controlling financial interest in the VIE. Consideration of various factors include, but are not limited to, the Company’s ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and its obligation to absorb losses from or right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. The Company consolidates any VIEs when the Company is determined to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE and the difference between consolidating the VIE and accounting for it using the equity method could be material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company continually evaluates the need to consolidate these VIEs based on standards set forth in U.S. GAAP.
ReclassificationReverse Stock Split - Impact to Prior Period
The fees from managed partnerships, which are fees earned fromCompany effected a one-for-five reverse stock split of Common Stock after markets closed on December 17, 2020, whereby every five shares of VEREIT's issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share, were converted into one share of Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share. A corresponding reverse split of the outstanding OP Units also took effect on December 17, 2020. Certain prior period amounts have been updated to reflect the reverse stock split including stock/unit and per share/unit amounts, additional paid-in capital, common stock and dividends on the consolidated statements of operations, consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of equity and notes to the financial statements. The reverse stock split did not affect the Company’s unconsolidated joint venture entities, previously includedtotal stockholder’s equity, the common stock par value per share or the Company’s authorized shares of common stock. NaN fractional shares of common stock were issued as fractional shares were settled in other income (loss), net have been presentedcash.
Prior Period Correction

As a result, the current year presentation.

The Company also revised the accompanying consolidated statements of changes in equity to reduce the accumulated deficit balances and increase the General Partner’s common equity at January 1, 2021 and 2020 by $30.6 million and $26.9 million, respectively.

inconsequential to the consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Company determined that the correction is not material to the previously issued consolidated financial statements.
Revenue Recognition
Rental Revenue
The Company continually reviews receivables related to rent, straight-line rent and property operating expense reimbursements and determines collectability by taking into consideration the tenant’s payment history, the financial condition of the tenant, business conditions in the industry in which the tenant operates and economic conditions in the area in which the property is located. The review includes a binary assessment of whether or not substantially all of the amounts due under a tenant’s lease agreement are probable of collection. For leases that are deemed probable of collection, revenue continues to be recorded on a straight-line basis over the lease term and the Company recognizes a general allowance on a portfolio-wide basis. For leases that are deemed not probable of collection, revenue is recorded as cash is received and the Company reduces rental revenue for any straight-line rent receivables. The Company recognizes all changes in the collectability assessment for an operating lease as an adjustment to rental revenue. During the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 and 2020, rental revenue was reduced by $13.2$1.8 million and $18.5$5.3 million, respectively, which included (i) $2.1 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of an increase tobased on the general allowance, (ii) $7.4 million and $9.4 million, respectively, for amounts not probable of collection, and (iii) $3.7 million and $7.6 million, respectively, for straight-line rent receivables. Of the $13.2 million reduction to rental revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2020, $8.4 million was related to the impact of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic, of which $0.9 million represented an increase to the general allowance, $3.8 million represented amounts not probable of collection, and $3.7 million was for straight-line rent receivables.collectability assessment.
Rental revenue also includes lease termination income collected from tenants to allow for the tenant to vacate their space prior to their scheduled termination dates, as well as amortization of above and below-market leases.
Accounting for Lease Concessions Related to the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic
The FASB issued a question-and-answer document, Accounting for Lease Concessions Related to the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic for concessions related to the effects of COVID-19 that provide a deferral of payments with no substantive changes to the consideration of the original contract allows an entity to elect to not analyze each contract to determine whether enforceable rights and obligations for concessions exist in the contract and to elect to apply or not apply the lease modification guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 842, Leases (“ASC 842”), to those contracts (the “COVID-19 Lease Concessions Relief”). For eligible concessions, the Company has elected not to apply the lease modification guidance in ASC 842. As such, the Company accounts for eligible deferral concessions as if there were no changes made to the lease agreement and, accordingly, continues to recognize income and increases the lease receivable. Ineligible concessions are accounted for as a lease modification under ASC 842, which requires the Company to reevaluate the lease classification and remeasure and reallocate the consideration over the remaining lease term, and include any prepaid rent liabilities and accrued rent assets relating to the original lease as part of the lease payments for the modified lease. 
During the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company had $3.6 million of rental revenue related to deferral agreements executed through June 30, 2020 and $5.3 million related to deferral agreements executed from July 1, 2020 through July 27, 2020, which qualify for the COVID-19 Lease Concessions Relief. The Company did not record rental revenue for $11.2 million of second quarter rental revenue abated pursuant to lease amendments executed through June 30, 2020, which increased the weighted average lease term for the related properties.
Fees from Managed Partnerships
The Company provides various services to our unconsolidated joint venture entities in exchange for fees. Total asset and property management and acquisition fees earned in connection with these entities was $0.4 million and $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $1.0 million and $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses
The Company adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses and subsequent amendments (collectively Topic 326), effective January 1, 2020. Topic 326 was intended to improve financial reporting by requiring more timely recognition of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments that are not accounted for at fair value through net income and required that financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, through an allowance for credit losses that was deducted from the amortized cost basis. The amendments in Topic 326 required the Company to measure all expected credit losses based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the financial assets and eliminated the “incurred loss” methodology under current U.S. GAAP.
Upon adoption, the Company determined the following to be within the scope of Topic 326: (i) investments in direct financing leases and (ii) other immaterial miscellaneous short term receivables. Due to the short term nature and collection history of the direct financing leases and management fee receivables and the creditworthiness of the direct financing lease tenants, the adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
Reference Rate Reform
During the first quarter of 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”)FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). ASU 2020-04 contains practical expedients for reference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other contracts. The guidance in ASU 2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During the first quarter of 2020, the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future London Inter-Bank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”)-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon whichapplicable to future hedged transactions will be based matchesmatched the index on the corresponding derivatives. ApplicationDuring the fourth quarter of these expedients preserves2020, the presentationCompany terminated its interest rate swap agreements with an aggregate $900.0 million notional amount and terminated its forward starting interest rate swaps with a total notional amount of derivatives consistent$400.0 million, both of which were designated as cash flow hedges, in connection with past presentation.the early repayment of borrowings under the Credit Facility Term Loan (as defined in Note 6 – Debt), as discussed in Note 7 –Derivatives and Hedging Activities.

Note 5 – Fair Value Measures
The Company determines fair value based on quoted prices when available or through the use of alternative approaches, such as discounting the expected cash flows using market interest rates commensurate with the credit quality and duration of the investment. U.S. GAAP guidance defines three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflect the entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but rather through particular valuation techniques.
22
VEREIT, INC. and VEREIT OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2021 (Unaudited) – (Continued)
The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. Changes in the type of inputs may result in a reclassification for certain assets. The Company does not expect that changes in classifications between levels will be frequent.

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

Although the Company determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with those derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. However, as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of the Company’s derivatives. As a result, the Company determined that its derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company considered whether there was any indication of impairment for properties that did not otherwise have potential impairment indicators and did not identify additional properties as of June 30, 2020. Based on the Company’s expected holding period for the properties and the economic conditions as of June 30, 2020, the Company believes that their carrying values are recoverable. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted the businesses of certain of our tenants so the Company continues to monitor for circumstances and events in future periods, which may result in impairment charges.

The Company estimates fair values using Level 3 inputs and uses a combined income and market approach, specifically using discounted cash flow analysis and recent comparable sales transactions. The evaluation of real estate assets for potential impairment requires the Company’s management to exercise significant judgment and make certain key assumptions, including, but not limited to, the following: (1) capitalization rate; (2) discount rates; (3) number of years property will be held; (4) property operating expenses; and (5) re-leasing assumptions including number of months to re-lease, market rental revenue and required tenant improvements. There are inherent uncertainties in making these estimates such as market conditions and performance and sustainability of the Company’s tenants. For the Company’s impairment tests for the real estate assets during the sixthree months ended June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, the Company used a range of discount rates from 7.9% to 8.4%8.6% with a weighted-average rate of 8.2%8.5% and capitalization rates from 7.4% to 7.9%8.1% with a weighted-average rate of 7.7%8.0%.

The Company also reported that the Audit Committee had based its conclusion on the preliminary findings of its investigation into concerns regarding accounting practices and other matters that were first reported to the Audit Committee in early September 2014 and that the Audit Committee believed that an error in the calculation of adjusted funds from operations for the first quarter of 2014 had been identified but intentionally not corrected when the Company reported its financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. Prior to the filing of the October 29 8-K, the Audit Committee previewed for the SEC the information contained in the filing. Subsequent to that filing, the SEC provided notice that it had commenced a formal investigation and issued subpoenas calling for the production of various documents. In addition, the United States Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York contacted counsel for the Audit Committee and counsel for the Company with respect to this matter, and the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts issued a subpoena calling for the production of various documents. The Company cooperated with these regulators throughout their investigations. The U.S. Attorney’s Office concluded that it did not intend to bring any criminal charges against the Company arising from its investigation and the Company believes that the investigation by the Secretary of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts is no longer pending.
On November 18, 2019, the Company announced it had reached agreement with the staff of the Enforcement Division of the SEC on the material terms of a negotiated resolution relating to the SEC's investigation of the matters disclosed in the Company's October 29 8-K. The agreement with the SEC staff, which was approved by the SEC's Commissioners on June 23, 2020, required payment of $8.0 million as a civil penalty, which payment was made by the Company subsequent to quarter end.operations.

Environmental Matters
In connection with the ownership and operation of real estate, the Company may potentially be liable for costs and damages related to environmental matters. The Company has not been notified by any governmental authority of any non-compliance, liability or other claim, and is not aware of any other environmental condition, in each case, that it believes will have a material adverse effect on the results of operations.

The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of 0.10.4 years to 79.178.4 years, some of which include options to extend. The weighted average remaining lease term for the Company’s operating leases was 16.115.9 years as of June 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. Under certain ground lease arrangements, the Company pays variable costs, including property operating expenses and common area maintenance, which are generally reimbursed by the ground lease sub-tenants. The weighted average discount rate for the Company’s operating leases was 4.99%4.92% as of June 30, 2020.March 31, 2021. As the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used an estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the adoption date in determining the present value of lease payments.
The Company incorporated renewal periods in the calculation of the majority of ground lease right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Pursuant to certain leases, the Company is required to execute renewal options available under the ground lease through the building lease term. No renewals were incorporated in the calculation of the corporate lease right-of-use assets and liabilities, as it is not reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the options.

Reverse Stock Split
The Company’s one-for-five reverse stock split of its Common Stock took effect after markets closed on December 17, 2020, following the filing of amendments to its charter with the Maryland State Department of Assessments and Taxation whereby every five shares of VEREIT's issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share, were converted into one share of Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share. VEREIT’s Common Stock began trading on the NYSE on a split-adjusted basis beginning December 18, 2020. Fractional shares resulting from the reverse stock split were paid in cash based on the trailing average closing price of VEREIT’s Common Stock on the NYSE for a period of three days prior to the effective date. The reverse stock split affected all record holders of VEREIT’s Common Stock uniformly and did not affect any record holder’s percentage ownership interest, except for de minimus changes as a result of the elimination of fractional shares. Trading in the Common Stock continued on the NYSE under the symbol “VER” but the Common Stock was assigned a new CUSIP number. The reverse stock split reduced the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding but did not affect the number of VEREIT’s authorized shares of Common Stock. A corresponding reverse split of the outstanding OP Units also took effect on December 17, 2020.

Certain risks may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the following discussion. For a complete discussion of such risk factors, see "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A. of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, as supplemented in Part II, Item 1A. of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.2020. Capitalized terms used herein, but not otherwise defined, shall have the meaning ascribed to those terms in the “Part I – Financial Information,” including the notes to the consolidated financial statements contained therein.

The following are some, but not all, of the assumptions, risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward-looking statements:
•Our ability to consummate the proposed Merger and the timing of the closing of the proposed Merger.

•Federal, state or local legislation or regulation that could impact the timely payment of rent by tenants in light of COVID-19.
•We may be unable to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-lease space as leases expire on favorable terms or at all.

We use certain defined terms throughout this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have the following meanings:
When we refer to “annualized rental income,” we mean the rental revenue under our leases on operating properties on a straight-line basis, which includes the effect of rent escalations and any tenant concessions, such as free rent, and our pro rata share of such revenues from properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures. Annualized rental income excludes any adjustments to rental income due to changes in the collectability assessment, contingent rent, such as percentage rent, and operating expense reimbursements. Management uses annualized rental income as a basis for tenant, industry and geographic concentrations and other metrics within the portfolio. Annualized rental income is not indicative of future performance.
When we refer to a “creditworthy tenant,” we mean a tenant that has entered into a lease that we determine is creditworthy and may include tenants with an investment grade or below investment grade credit rating, as determined by major credit rating agencies, or unrated tenants. To the extent we determine that a tenant is a “creditworthy tenant” even though it does not have an investment grade credit rating, we do so based on our management’s determination that a tenant should have the financial wherewithal to honor its obligations under its lease with us. As explained further below, this determination is based on our management’s substantial experience performing credit analysis and is made after evaluating a tenant’s due diligence materials that are made available to us, including financial statements and operating data.
When we refer to a “direct financing lease,” we mean a lease that requires specific treatment due to the significance of the lease payments from the inception of the lease compared to the fair value of the property, term of the lease, a transfer of ownership, or a bargain purchase option. These leases are recorded as a net asset on the balance sheet. The amount recorded is calculated as the fair value of the remaining lease payments on the leases and the estimated fair value of any expected residual property value at the end of the lease term.
When we refer to properties that are net leased on a “long term basis,” we mean properties with remaining primary lease terms of generally seven to 10 years or longer on average, depending on property type.
Under a “net lease,” the tenant occupying the leased property (usually as a single tenant) does so in much the same manner as if the tenant were the owner of the property. There are various forms of net leases, most typically classified as triple net or double net. Triple net leases typically require that the tenant pay all expenses associated with the property (e.g., real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance and repairs). Double net leases typically require that the tenant pay all operating expenses associated with the property (e.g., real estate taxes, insurance and maintenance), but excludes some or all major repairs (e.g., roof, structure and parking lot). Accordingly, the owner receives the rent “net” of these expenses, rendering the cash flow associated with the lease predictable for the term of the lease. Under a net lease, the tenant generally agrees to lease the property for a significant term and agrees that it will either have no ability or only limited ability to terminate the lease or abate rent prior

to the expiration of the term of the lease as a result of real estate driven events such as casualty, condemnation or failure by the landlord to fulfill its obligations under the lease.
When we refer to “operating properties” we mean properties owned and consolidated by the Company, omitting properties (the “Excluded Properties”) for which (i) the related mortgage loan is in default, and (ii) management decides to transfer the properties to the lender in connection with settling the mortgage note obligation. At and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, there were no Excluded Properties. At and during the three months ended June 30, 2019, there was one Excluded Property which was an office property comprising 145,186 square feet, of which 6,926 square feet was vacant, with an outstanding principal balance of $19.5 million.

Results of Operations
COVID-19 has impacted all states where our tenants operate their businesses or where our properties are located, and measures taken to prevent or remediate COVID-19, including “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders, other quarantine mandates and restriction on the operations of certain types of businesses issued by local, state or federal authorities, have had an adverse effect on our business and the businesses of our tenants. While ourOur business was not materially impacted during the sixthree months ended June 30,March 31, 2021 or 2020 fromby the COVID-19 pandemic,pandemic. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 our rent collection was impacted and for the second quarter was 85%99% of rental revenue on an annualized basis.and as of April 22, 2021, we collected $9.8 million of deferred rent, representing approximately 100% of amounts due through March 31, 2021. The full extent of the future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations isremains uncertain.
Our dedicated property type asset management teams have been in discussion with tenants to understand the impact of COVID-19 on their businesses. As of July 27, 2020, we received rent relief requests, most often in the form of rent deferral requests, from tenants representing approximately 33% of rental revenue on an annualized basis, including some tenants that paid April, May, June and/ or July rent. These rent relief requests vary in timeframes, but are concentrated within the two to four month range. We evaluate each tenant request on a case-by-case basis, including by analyzing metrics such as industry segment, corporate financial health, rent coverage, and the tenant's liquidity. As of July 27, 2020, we collected the following percent of rent, which included contractual rent and recoveries paid by tenants to cover estimated tax, insurance and common area maintenance expenses, including our pro rata share of such amounts related to properties owned by unconsolidated joint ventures:

We abated $11.2 million of second quarter rental revenue pursuant to lease amendments executed through June 30, 2020, which increased the weighted average lease term for the related properties, pursuant to the terms of the amendments. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, rental revenue was reduced by $13.2 million (4.5% of gross rental revenue), which included (i) $2.1 million of an increase to the general allowance, (ii) $7.4 million for amounts not probable of collection, and (iii) $3.7 million for straight-line rent receivables.

Non-GAAP Measures
Our results are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We also disclose certain non-GAAP measures, as discussed further below. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in our internal analysis of results and believes these measures are useful to investors for the reasons explained below. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as substitutes for any measures derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Funds from Operations and Adjusted Funds from Operations
Due to certain unique operating characteristics of real estate companies, as discussed below, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, Inc. (“Nareit”), an industry trade group, has promulgated a supplemental performance measure known as funds from operations (“FFO”), which we believe to be an appropriate supplemental performance measure to reflect the operating performance of a REIT. FFO is not equivalent to our net income or loss as determined under U.S. GAAP.
Nareit defines FFO as net income or loss computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP adjusted for gains or losses from disposition of property, depreciation and amortization of real estate assets, impairment write-downs on real estate, and our pro rata share of FFO adjustments related to unconsolidated partnerships and joint ventures. We calculate FFO in accordance with Nareit’s definition described above.
In addition to FFO, we use adjusted funds from operations (“AFFO”) as a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure to evaluate the operating performance of the Company. AFFO, as defined by the Company, excludes from FFO non-routine items such as acquisition-related expenses, litigation and non-routine costs, net net revenue or expense earned or incurred that is related to the services agreement associated with a discontinued operation,and gains or losses on sale of investment securities or mortgage notes receivable, payments on fully reserved loan receivables and restructuring expenses.receivable. We also exclude certain non-cash items such as impairments of goodwill, intangible and intangibleright of use assets, straight-line rent, net direct financing lease adjustments, gains or losses on derivatives, reserves for loan loss, gains or losses on the extinguishment or forgiveness of debt, non-current portion of the tax benefit or expense, equity-based compensation and amortization of intangible assets, deferred financing costs, premiums and discounts on debt and investments, above-market lease assets and below-market lease liabilities. We omit the impact of the Excluded Properties and related non-recourse mortgage notes from FFO to calculate AFFO. Management believes that excluding these costsitems from FFO provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance models and analysis used by management, and provides investors a view of the performance of our portfolio over time. AFFO allows for a comparison of the performance of our operations with other publicly-traded REITs, as AFFO, or an equivalent measure, is routinely reported by publicly-traded REITs, and we believe often used by analysts and investors for comparison purposes.
For all of these reasons, we believe FFO and AFFO, in addition to net income (loss), as defined by U.S. GAAP, are helpful supplemental performance measures and useful in understanding the various ways in which our management evaluates the performance of the Company over time. However, not all REITs calculate FFO and AFFO the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. FFO and AFFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss) and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs. Neither the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), Nareit, nor any other regulatory body has evaluated the acceptability of the exclusions used to adjust FFO in order to calculate AFFO and its use as a non-GAAP financial performance measure.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
General
Our principal liquidity needs for the next twelve months and beyond are to:
•fund normal operating expenses;
•fund potential capital expenditures, tenant improvements and leasing costs;
•meet debt service and principal repayment obligations, including balloon payments on maturing debt;
•pay dividends; and
•fund property acquisitions.
We expect to be able to satisfy these obligations using one or more of the following sources:
•cash flow from operations;
•proceeds from real estate dispositions;
•utilization of the existing Revolving Credit Facility; and
•cash and cash equivalents balance; and
issuance of VEREIT debt and equity securities.balance.
COVID-19
In light of COVID-19, we have taken certain steps to preserve and ensure adequate access to liquidity including (i) temporarily ceased property acquisitions, and monitoring necessary capital expenditures and planned build-to-suit development projects, (ii) reduced the quarterly cash dividend beginning the second quarter of 2020, (iii) closed on the senior note offering, consisting of $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.40% Senior Notes due 2028, and (iv) amended the Credit Agreement.

However, COVID-19 and related impacts on our financial performance and the financial impactperformance of COVID-19our tenants could still have a material and adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity and cash flows, subsequent to June 30, 2020, in particular due to the potential inability of our tenants to satisfy their rent obligations and inability of the Company to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-let space as leases expire on favorable terms, or at all. The effect ofImpacts related to COVID-19 may also negatively impact our future compliance with financial covenants in our Credit Facility, indentures governing our Senior Notes and other debt agreements and result in a default and acceleration of indebtedness which could negatively impact our ability to make additional borrowings under our Credit Facility. The financial impact of COVID-19 could also negatively affect our ability to pay dividends or fund acquisitions in the future.

Election as a REIT
The General Partner elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Sections 856 through 860 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, commencing with the taxable year ended December 31, 2011. As a REIT, except as discussed below, the General Partner generally is not subject to federal income tax on taxable income that it distributes to its stockholders so long as it distributes at least 90% of its annual taxable income (computed without regard to the deduction for dividends paid and excluding net capital gains). REITs are subject to a number of other organizational and operational requirements. Even if the General Partner maintains its qualification for taxation as a REIT, it may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, federal income taxes on certain income and excise taxes on its undistributed income. We believe we are organized and operating in such a manner as to qualify to be taxed as a REIT for the taxable year ended December 31, 2020.2021.
The Operating Partnership is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a partnership, the Operating Partnership is not a taxable entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Instead, each partner in the Operating Partnership is required to take into account its allocable share of the Operating Partnership’s income, gains, losses, deductions and credits for each taxable year. However, the Operating Partnership may be subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property. Under the limited partnership agreement of the OP, as amended (the “LPA”), the Operating Partnership is required to conduct business in such a manner as to permit the General Partner at all times to qualify as a REIT.

The Company conducts all of its business in the United States and Puerto Rico and, as a result, it files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, Puerto Rico, and various state and local jurisdictions. Certain of the Company’s inter-company transactions that have been eliminated in consolidation for financial accounting purposes are also subject to taxation.
Inflation
We may be adversely impacted by inflation on any leases that do not contain indexed escalation provisions. However, net leases that require the tenant to pay its allocable share of operating expenses, including common area maintenance costs, real estate taxes and insurance, may reduce our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no material off-balance sheet arrangements that have had or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Accounting Estimates
Our accounting policies have been established to conform with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. Management believes that we have made these estimates and assumptions in an appropriate manner and in a way that accurately reflects our financial condition. We continually test and evaluate these estimates and assumptions using our historical knowledge of the business, as well as other factors, to ensure that they are reasonable for reporting purposes. However, actual results may differ from these estimates and assumptions. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to the various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, thus resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different assumptions or estimates that may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. We believe the following critical accounting policies govern the significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of our financial statements, which should be read in conjunction with the more complete discussion of our accounting policies and procedures included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019:2020:

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Market Risk
The market risk associated with financial instruments and derivative financial instruments is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices or interest rates. Our market risk arises primarily from interest rate risk relating to variable-rate borrowings. To meet our short and long-term liquidity requirements, we borrow funds at a combination of fixed and variable rates. Our interest rate risk management objectives are to limit the impact of interest rate changes on earnings and cash flows and to manage our overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives, from time to time, we may enter into interest rate hedge contracts such as swaps, caps, collars, treasury locks, options and forwards in order to mitigate our interest rate risk with respect to various debt instruments. We would not hold or issue these derivative contracts for trading or speculative purposes.
Interest Rate Risk
As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, our debt included fixed-rate debt, including debt that has interest rates that are fixed with the use of derivative instruments, with a fair value and carrying value of $6.2$6.0 billion and $6.0$5.6 billion, respectively. Changes in market interest rates on our fixed rate debt impact the fair value of the debt, but they have no impact on interest incurred or cash flow. For instance, if interest rates rise 100 basis points, and the fixed rate debt balance remains constant, we expect the fair value of our debt to decrease, the same way the price of a bond declines as interest rates rise. The sensitivity analysis related to our fixed-rate debt assumes an immediate 100 basis point move in interest rates from their June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 levels, with all other variables held constant. A 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would result in a decrease in the fair value of our fixed rate debt of $231.2$305.4 million. A 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates would result in an increase in the fair value of our fixed-rate debt of $247.0$329.0 million.
As of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, our debt included variable-rate debt with a fair value and carrying value of $15.3$15.1 million and $15.2

$15.0 million, respectively. The sensitivity analysis related to our variable-rate debt assumes an immediate 100 basis point move in interest rates from their June 30, 2020March 31, 2021 levels, with all other variables held constant. A 100 basis point increase or decrease in variable interest rates on our variable-rate debt would increase or decrease our interest expense by $0.2 million annually. See Note 6 –Debt to our consolidated financial statements.
As of June 30, 2020, our interest rate swaps had a fair value that resulted in liabilities of $106.5 million. See Note 7 –Derivatives and Hedging Activities to our consolidated financial statements for further discussion.
As the information presented above includes only those exposures that existed as of June 30, 2020,March 31, 2021, it does not consider exposures or positions arising after that date. The information presented herein has limited predictive value. Future actual realized gains or losses with respect to interest rate fluctuations will depend on cumulative exposures, hedging strategies employed and the magnitude of the fluctuations.
These amounts were determined by considering the impact of hypothetical interest rate changes on our borrowing costs and assume no other changes in our capital structure.

In July 2017, the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) announced it intends to stop compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR after 2021. The Company is not able to predict when LIBOR will cease to be available or when there will be sufficient liquidity in the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) markets. The Company has contracts that are indexed to LIBOR and is monitoring and evaluating the related risks, which include interest amounts on our variable rate debt as discussed in Note 6 –Debt and the swap rate for our interest rate swaps, as discussed in Note 7 –Derivatives and Hedging Activities. Debt. See Item 1A. Risk Factors included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for further discussion on risks related to changes in LIBOR reporting practices, the method in which LIBOR is determined, or the use of alternative reference rates.
Credit Risk
Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of tenants are engaged in similar business activities, or activities in the same geographic region, or have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations, including those to the Company, to be similarly affected by changes in economic conditions. The Company is subject to tenant, geographic and industry concentrations. Any downturn of the economic conditions in one or more of these tenants, geographies or industries could result in a material reduction of our cash flows or material losses to us.
The factors considered in determining the credit risk of our tenants include, but are not limited to: payment history; credit status and change in status (credit ratings for public companies are used as a primary metric); change in tenant space needs (i.e., expansion/downsize); tenant financial performance; economic conditions in a specific geographic region; and industry specific credit considerations. We believe that the credit risk of our portfolio is reduced by the high quality and diversity of our existing tenant base, reviews of prospective tenants’ risk profiles prior to lease execution and consistent monitoring of our portfolio to identify potential problem tenants. However, we continue to monitor this in lightthe credit risk of the effectsour portfolio.

The Company is supplementing the risk factors previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20192020 with the following risk factor,factors, which should be read in conjunction with the other risk factors presented in the Annual Report on Form 10-K:

Risks Related to the Merger
The ongoing pandemicannouncement and pendency of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has negatively affected and will likely continue to negatively affect our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations and those of our tenants.
The current COVID-19 pandemic has had, and likely will continue to have, repercussions across local, national and global economies and financial markets. COVID-19 has impacted all states where our tenants operate their businesses or where our properties are located and measures taken to control the COVID-19 outbreak, including “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders, density limitations and social distancing orders, and other mandates issued by local, state or federal authorities, have had and are continuing toMerger Agreement could have an adverse effect on our business.
On April 29, 2021, the Company and the OP entered into a Merger Agreement with Realty Income, Merger Sub 1 and Merger Sub 2 whereby Merger Sub 2 will be merged with and into the OP, with the OP continuing as the surviving entity and, immediately thereafter, the Company will be merged with and into Merger Sub 1, with Merger Sub 1 continuing as the surviving corporation.
The announcement and pendency of the Merger could cause disruption in our business, including the potential loss or disruption of commercial relationships prior to the completion of the Merger. For example, some of our tenants, prospective tenants or vendors may delay or defer decisions, which could negatively affect our revenues, earnings, cash flows and expenses, regardless of whether the Merger is completed. Similarly, our current and prospective employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles with the combined company following the Merger, which may adversely affect our ability to attract and retain key personnel during the pendency of the Merger.
The Merger Agreement generally requires us to use commercially reasonable efforts to operate our business in the ordinary course of business pending consummation of the Merger, but includes certain contractual restrictions on the conduct of our business prior to completion of the Merger. Due to these operating restrictions, during the pendency of the Merger Agreement we may be unable to pursue strategic transactions, undertake significant capital projects, undertake certain financing transactions and otherwise pursue other actions, even if such actions would prove beneficial.
The Merger Agreement also contains provisions that limit our ability to pursue alternatives to the Merger and that could discourage a potential competing acquirer of us from making a favorable alternative transaction proposal. In addition, matters relating to the Merger (including integration planning) will require substantial commitments of time and resources by our management, which could divert their time and attention. We have also incurred, and will continue to incur, significant non-recurring costs in connection with the Merger that we may be unable to recover. Further, the Merger Agreement requires us to pay a substantial termination fee to Realty Income in certain circumstances and if our stockholders do not approve the transaction, we must pay Realty Income an expense reimbursement fee.
The risk, and adverse effect, of any disruption could be exacerbated by a delay in completion of the Merger or termination of the Merger Agreement.
Completion of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions.
Completion of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including: (1) adoption and approval by the Company’s stockholders of the Merger Agreement and approval by Realty Income’s shareholders of the issuance of shares of Realty Income Common Stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement; (2) the effectiveness of the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed with the SEC by Realty Income in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement; (3) approval for listing on the NYSE of the shares of Realty Income’s Common Stock to be issued in the Merger or reserved for issuance in connection therewith; (4) no injunction or law prohibiting the Merger; (5) accuracy of each party’s representations, subject in most cases to materiality or material adverse effect qualifications; (6) material compliance with each party’s covenants; (7) receipt by each of Realty Income and us of an opinion to the effect that the Merger will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, and (8) receipt by each of Realty Income and us of an opinion that the other party qualifies as a REIT under the Code.
53
In addition, Realty Income will not be obligated to consummate the Merger before January 29, 2022 unless the Spin-Off is ready, in all respects, to be consummated contemporaneously with the closing of the Merger. If this condition is not satisfied or waived by Realty Income by January 29, 2022, and all other conditions to closing have been satisfied, the parties will be obligated to close the Merger, regardless of whether the Spin-Off is ready to be consummated.
We cannot provide assurance that these conditions to completing the Merger will be satisfied or waived, and accordingly, that our pending Merger with Realty Income will be completed on the timeline that we anticipate or at all. Failure to complete the Merger could negatively affect our stock price and our future business and financial results.
An adverse outcome in any litigation or other legal proceedings relating to the businesses of our tenants. The full extent of theMerger Agreement could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, liquidity (including our ability to access capital markets),business and our ability to acquire, disposeconsummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.
Transactions like the Merger are frequently the subject of or lease properties for our portfolio, our joint venture partners’ portfolios and/or for the tenant-in-common and Delaware statutory trust real estate programs’ properties that we manage is unknown and will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Our results of operations, liquidity and cash flows could be materially affected.
Many of our tenants operate in industries that depend on in-person interactions with their customers to be profitable and to fund their obligations under lease agreements with us. Measures taken to control the COVID-19 outbreak, including “shelter-in-place” or “stay-at-home” orders, density limitations and social distancing orders, and other mandates have, with respect to some portion of our tenants, (i) decreased or prevented our tenants’ customers’ willingness or ability to frequent their businesses, and/or (ii) impacted supply chains from local, national and international suppliers or otherwise delayed the delivery of inventorylitigation or other materials necessary forlegal proceedings, including actions alleging that either our tenants’ operations, which has adversely affected, and is likelyboard of directors breached their respective fiduciary duties to continuetheir stockholders by entering into the Merger Agreement, by failing to adversely affect, their ability to maintain profitability and make rental payments to us under their leases. Further, places that have seen increased cases of COVID-19 have reinstituted and/or mayobtain a greater value in the future reinstitute measures to controltransaction for their stockholders or otherwise. We believe that any such litigation or proceedings would be without merit, but there can be no assurance that they will not be brought. If litigation or other legal proceedings are brought against us or against our board in connection with the Merger Agreement, we will defend against it, but we might not be successful in doing so. An adverse outcome in such matters, as well as the costs and decrease the spreadefforts of COVID-19, which may prolong thea defense even if successful, could have a material adverse effect on our business, and/results of operation or financial position, including through the possible diversion of either company’s resources or distraction of key personnel.
The exchange ratio will not be adjusted in the event of any change in the stock prices of either us or Realty Income.
Upon the consummation of the Merger, each outstanding share of our Common Stock will be converted automatically into the right to receive 0.705 shares of Realty Income common stock, with cash paid in lieu of any fractional shares, without interest. The exchange ratio of 0.705 will not be adjusted for changes in the market prices of either shares of our Common Stock or shares of Realty Income common stock. Changes in the market price of shares of Realty Income common stock prior to the effective time of the Merger will affect the market value of the merger consideration that our stockholders will receive on the closing date of the Merger. Stock price changes may result from a variety of factors (many of which are beyond our or Realty Income’s control), including the following factors:
•market reaction to the announcement of the Merger and the prospects of the combined company;
•changes in the respective businesses, operations, assets, liabilities and prospects of us and Realty Income;
•changes in market assessments of the business, operations, financial position and prospects of either company or the businesscombined company;
•market assessments of the likelihood that the Merger will be completed;
•interest rates, general market and economic conditions and other factors generally affecting the market prices of our tenants. In lightCommon Stock and Realty Income Common Stock;
•federal, state and local legislation, governmental regulation and legal developments in the businesses in which we and Realty Income operate; and
•other factors beyond the control of us and Realty Income, including those described or referred to in this “Risk Factors” section.
The market price of shares of Realty Income common stock at the closing of the spreadMerger may vary from its price on the date the Merger Agreement was executed, on the date of COVID-19the proxy statement/prospectus and on the date of our special meeting. As a result, the market value of the merger consideration represented by the exchange ratio will also vary.
If the market price of shares of Realty Income common stock increases between the date the Merger Agreement was signed, the date of the proxy statement/prospectus or the date of our special meeting and the resulting economic downturn, tenantsclosing of the Merger, our stockholders could receive shares of Realty Income common stock that have a market value upon completion of the Merger that is greater than the market value of such shares calculated pursuant to the exchange ratio on the date the Merger Agreement was signed, the date of the proxy statement/prospectus or on the date of the special meeting, respectively. Alternatively, if the market price of shares of Realty Income common stock declines between the date the Merger Agreement was signed, the date of the proxy statement/prospectus or the date of our special meeting and may in the future, request rent deferrals, rent abatementclosing of the Merger, our stockholders could
54
receive shares of Realty Income common stock that have a market value upon completion of the Merger that is less than the market value of such shares calculated pursuant to the exchange ratio on the date the Merger Agreement was signed, the date of the proxy statement/prospectus or early terminationon the date of their leases as well as may be forced to temporarily or permanently close or declare bankruptcy which could reduce our cash flows and negatively affect our ability to pay dividends at current levels or at all. Specifically, as a result of COVID-19 and various governmental orders currently in place or reinstituted, athe special meeting, respectively.
Therefore, while the number of shares of Realty Income common stock to be issued per share of our tenants have closed their businesses, are operating with limited operations and/or have submitted requests for rent relief or failed to pay rent. While the Company has worked with tenants requesting rent relief, there can be no guarantee that future rent collections will be received at the same level as historical rent collections. In addition, state, local or industry-initiated efforts, such as tenant rent freezes or suspension of a landlord’s ability to enforce evictions, may continue to affectCommon Stock is fixed, our ability to collect rent or enforce remedies for the failure to pay rent. We believe our tenants generally do not have a clear contractual right to cease paying rent due to government-mandated closures and we intend to enforce our rights under the lease agreements. However, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the related governmental orders continue to present novel situations for which the ultimate legal outcomestockholders cannot be assured and it is possible future governmental action could impact our rights under the lease agreements. The extent of tenant requests and actions and the impact to the Company’s results of operations and cash flows is uncertain and cannot be predicted.
The spread of COVID-19 has caused and is continuing to cause significant financial market volatility and an economic downturn, and the length and extent of such volatility and downturn are unknown and cannot be predicted with any certainty. The financial impact of COVID-19 could have a material and adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity and cash flows, in particular due to the potential (i) inability of our tenants to satisfy their rent obligations, (ii) inabilitysure of the Company to renew leases, lease vacant space or re-let space as leases expire on favorable terms, or at all, and (iii) difficulty for the Company accessing debt and equity capital on attractive terms, or at all. The effect of COVID-19 may also negatively impact our future compliance with financial covenants in our credit facility, indentures governing our senior notes and other debt agreements and result in a

default and acceleration of indebtedness which could negatively impact our ability to make additional borrowings under our credit facility. The financial impact of COVID-19 could also negatively affect our ability to pay dividends or fund acquisitions.
As a result of COVID-19, the Company implemented and is continuing its work-from-home policy to protect its employees. The COVID-19 pandemic and other epidemics, pandemics or other public health crises in the future may also impact the continued service and availability of our personnel, including our executive officers, and our ability to recruit, attract and retain skilled personnel. Operationally, although we have implemented a work-from-home policy, if significant portions of our workforce, including key personnel, are unable to work effectively because of illness, government actions or other restrictions implemented or reinstituted in connection with COVID-19, the impact on our business could be exacerbated.
The full extentmarket value of the adverse impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations cannot be predicted and may be material. The magnitudemerger consideration they will depend on factors beyond our control including actions taken by local, state, federal and international governments, non-governmental organizations, the medical community, our tenants, and the public in general. Moreover, risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and filed with the SEC on February 26, 2020 could be heightened as a resultreceive upon completion of the impact of COVID-19 or any other public health crisis.Merger.
