NAV CALCULATION American Realty Capital – Retail Centers of America 5 Estimated Per Share NAV The board of directors (the “Board”) of American Realty Capital — Retail Centers of America, Inc. (the “Company”) previously adopted valuation guidelines used in connection with determining the estimated net asset value per share of the Company’s common stock. The valuation guidelines provide that American Realty Capital Retail Advisor, LLC (the “Advisor”) calculates the estimated per - share net asset value (“Estimated Per - Share NAV”) taking into consideration the appraisals of the Company’s real estate assets (each asset individually, a “Real Estate Asset” and collectively with related land parcels, the “Real Estate Assets”) performed by an independent valuation firm in accordance with the valuation guidelines established by the Board. The Advisor reviews valuations established by the independent valuation firm for consistency with the valuation guidelines and the reasonableness of the independent valuation firm’s conclusions. The Board oversees the Advisor’s Estimated Per - Share NAV calculation and reviews and approves the valuation. The Board relies on the Advisor’s valuation; however the Board may, in its discretion and as appropriate, consider other factors . On March 7, 2016, the independent directors of the Board, which comprise a majority of the Board, unanimously approved an Estimated Per - Share NAV equal to $9.00 based on an estimated fair value of the Company’s assets less the estimated fair value of the Company’s liabilities, divided by 96,866,354 shares of common stock outstanding on a fully diluted basis as of December 31, 2015. There have been no material changes between December 31, 2015 and the date hereof this filing that management of the Company believes would impact the overall Estimated Per - Share NAV .

RISK FACTORS Our potential risks and uncertainties are presented in the section titled “Item 1A. Risk Factors” disclosed in our Annual Rep ort on Form 10 - K for the year ended December 31, 2015. The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward - looking statements: • All of our executive officers are also officers, managers or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in American Re alty Capital Retail Advisor, LLC, (our "Advisor"), or other entities affiliated with AR Global Investments, LLC (the successor bus ine ss to AR Capital, LLC, "AR Global" or the "Parent of our Sponsor"), the parent of our sponsor, American Realty Capital IV, LLC ( our "Sponsor"). As a result, our executive officers, our Advisor and its affiliates face conflicts of interest, including conflic ts created by our Advisor's and its affiliates' compensation arrangements with us and other investment programs advised by affiliates of th e P arent of our Sponsor and conflicts in allocating time among these investment programs and us, which could negatively impact our operating results. • Lincoln Retail REIT Services, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("Lincoln") and its affiliates have to allocate time between providing real estate - related services to our Advisor and other programs and activities in which they are presently invo lved or may be involved in the future. • We depend on tenants for revenue and, accordingly, our revenue is dependent upon the success and economic viability of our tenants. • Our tenants may not achieve the rental rate incentives in their lease agreements with us, which may impact our results of ope rat ions. • Increases in interest rates could increase the amount of our interest payments associated with our credit facility, as amende d, (our "Credit Facility") and limit our ability to pay distributions. • We are permitted to pay distributions of unlimited amounts from any source. There are no established limits on the amount of borrowings that we may use to fund distribution payments. American Realty Capital – Retail Centers of America 11
RISK FACTORS • We have not generated, and in the future may not generate, operating cash flows sufficient to cover 100 % of our distributions, and, as such, to maintain the level of distributions, we may need to fund some portion of distributions from borrowings, which may be at unfavorable rates, or depend on our Advisor to waive reimbursement of certain expenses or fees . There is no assurance that our Advisor will waive reimbursement of expenses or fees . • We may be unable to maintain cash distributions at the current rate or increase distributions over time . • We are obligated to pay fees, which may be substantial, to our Advisor and its affiliates . • No public market currently exists, or may ever exist, for shares of our common stock and our shares are, and may continue to be, illiquid . • We are subject to risks associated with any dislocation or liquidity disruptions that may exist or occur in the credit markets of the United States of America . • We may fail to continue to qualify to be treated as a real estate investment trust for U . S . federal income tax purposes ("REIT"), which would result in higher taxes, may adversely affect our operations and would reduce the value of an investment in our common stock and the cash available for distributions . • We may be deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 , as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), and thus be subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act .
