Managed assets include, in part, those assets held within Cole as of March 31, 2013 (unless otherwise noted), and Credit Property Trust II, Inc., a Cole-sponsored program which we anticipate will no longer be under management following Q3 2013.

1. Weighted Average Remaining Lease Term is based on annualized straight-line rental revenue.

2. Square feet owned based on wholly owned assets and consolidated joint ventures and excludes unconsolidated joint ventures, mortgage notes receivable and commercial mortgage-backed securities. Square feet managed includes, in part, those assets held within Cole Credit Property Trust II.

3. Properties owned based on wholly owned assets and consolidated joint ventures and excludes unconsolidated joint ventures, mortgage notes receivable and commercial mortgage-backed securities. Properties managed includes, in part, those assets held within Cole Credit Property Trust II.

About the Data (continued)

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

FFO and AFFO

Funds From Operations (“FFO”) is a non-GAAP financial performance measure defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and widely recognized by investors and analysts as one measure of operating performance of a real estate company. The FFO calculation excludes items such as real estate depreciation and amortization, gains and losses on the sale of depreciable real estate and impairments of depreciable real estate. Depreciation and amortization as applied in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, it is management’s view, and we believe the view of many industry investors and analysts, that the presentation of operating results for real estate companies by using the historical cost accounting method alone is insufficient. In addition, FFO excludes gains and losses from the sale of depreciable real estate and impairment charges on depreciable real estate, which we believe provides management and investors with a helpful additional measure of the performance of our real estate portfolio, as it allows for comparisons, year to year, that reflect the impact on operations from trends in items such as occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs. We compute FFO in accordance with NAREIT’s definition.

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 our real estate portfolio. AFFO, as defined by our company, excludes from FFO merger and acquisition related costs, amortization and write off of deferred financing costs, straight-line rent adjustments, above and below market lease intangibles amortization, realized loss on derivatives and debt prepayment fees, gain on sale of marketable securities, other amortization or accretion, other gains, adjustments for discontinued operations and our proportionate share of adjustments for unconsolidated joint ventures, all of which are required to be expensed or recorded as additions to revenue or other income in accordance with GAAP. In evaluating the performance of our portfolio over time, management employs business models and analyses that differentiate the costs to acquire investments from the investments’ revenues and expenses. Management believes that excluding the items noted above from AFFO 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, including after the Company ceases to acquire properties on a frequent and regular basis. AFFO also allows for a comparison of the performance of our portfolio with other REITs that are not currently engaging in acquisitions and mergers, as well as a comparison of our performance with that of other REITs, as AFFO, or an equivalent measure, is routinely reported by 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 and cash flows from operating activities, as defined by GAAP, are helpful supplemental performance measures and useful in understanding the various ways in which our management evaluates the performance of our real estate portfolio 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 or to cash flows from operating activities, and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs.

About the Data (continued)

Non-GAAP Financial Measures continued

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA as disclosed represents EBITDA, or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, modified to include other adjustments to GAAP net income for merger expenses which are considered non-recurring and gain/losses in real estate, foreign exchange and derivatives which are not considered fundamental attributes of our business plans and do not affect our overall long-term operating performance. We exclude these items from Adjusted EBITDA as they are not the primary drivers in our decision making process. Our assessment of our operations is focused on long-term sustainability and not on such non-cash items, which may cause short term fluctuations in net income but have no impact on cash flows. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is a useful supplemental measure to investors and analysts for assessing the performance of our business segments, although it does not represent net income that is computed in accordance with GAAP. Therefore, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as an alternative to net income or as an indicator of our financial performance. We use Adjusted EBITDA as one measure of our operating performance when we formulate corporate goals and evaluate the effectiveness of our strategies. Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
