The following risks and uncertainties, among others, could cause actual results
and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in
the forward-looking statements:

event such properties are not renewed by tenants or we exercise our rights

to replace existing tenants upon default;

• the impact of any financial, accounting, legal or regulatory issues or


      litigation that may affect us or our major tenants;


  • our ability to manage our expanded operations;


  • our ability and willingness to maintain our qualification as a REIT;

   •  the impact on our business and those of our tenants from epidemics,

      pandemics or other outbreaks of illness, disease or virus (such as the
      strain of coronavirus known as COVID-19); and

• other risks inherent in the real estate business, including tenant defaults,


      potential liability relating to environmental matters, illiquidity of real
      estate investments and potential damages from natural disasters.


The factors included in this quarterly report, including the documents
incorporated by reference, and documents we subsequently file with the SEC and
incorporate by reference, are not exhaustive and additional factors could
adversely affect our business and financial performance. Additional factors that
may cause risks and uncertainties include those discussed in the sections
entitled "Business", "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our most recent Annual Report
on Form 10-K and this report and subsequent filings with the SEC. All
forward-looking statements are based on information that was available, and
speak only, to the date on which they were made. We disclaim any obligation to

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, credit research, asset management,
portfolio management, real estate research, legal, finance and accounting
functions. We primarily invest in single-tenant real estate assets throughout
the U.S., which are generally acquired through sale-leaseback transactions and
subsequently leased on a long-term, triple-net basis to high quality tenants
with business operations within retail, industrial, office and other industries.

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. Under a triple-net lease, the tenant is typically responsible for all
improvements and is contractually obligated to pay all property operating
expenses, such as real estate taxes, insurance premiums and repair and
maintenance costs.

As of June 30, 2020, our owned real estate represented investments in 1,771
properties. Our properties are leased to 294 tenants across 48 states and 28
retail industries. As of June 30, 2020, our owned properties were approximately
99.2% occupied (based on the number of economically yielding properties). In
addition, our investment in real estate includes commercial mortgage and other
loans primarily secured by 43 real estate properties or other related assets.

Our operations are 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 allows us to qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.



On May 31, 2018, we completed a Spin-Off of all our interests in the assets that
collateralized Master Trust 2014, our properties leased to Shopko, and certain
other assets into an independent, publicly traded REIT, SMTA. In conjunction
with the Spin-Off, we entered into the Asset Management Agreement with SMTA,
pursuant to which the Company acted as external asset manager for SMTA for an
annual management fee of $20.0 million. In September 2019, SMTA sold the assets
held in Master Trust 2014 and approved a plan of liquidation. The Asset
Management Agreement was terminated, and the Interim Management Agreement with
SMTA became effective. Pursuant to the Interim Management Agreement, we are
entitled to receive $1 million during the initial one-year term and $4 million
for any renewal one-year term, plus certain cost reimbursements, to manage and
liquidate the remaining SMTA assets. On March 18, 2020, we provided notification
that we intend to terminate the Interim Management Agreement, effective as of
September 14, 2020.

Given the timing of the onset in the U.S., the COVID-19 pandemic had a minimal
impact on our first quarter 2020 results. During the second quarter of 2020,
business disruption across our tenant base accelerated, as certain of our
tenants, especially those in industries considered "non-essential" under varying
state "shelter-in-place" and "stay-at-home" orders and other restrictions,
experienced occupancy challenges or even closures. As a result, many of our
tenants requested rent deferrals (and other forms of relief). Our discussions
with tenants requesting relief have substantially focused on industries that are
directly disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent
its spread, particularly health and fitness, movie theaters, quick service and
casual dining restaurants, entertainment, car washes, dealerships, home décor,
home furnishings, department stores and education. These and other industries
may be further impacted in the future depending on various factors, including
the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and further restrictions intended to
prevent its spread. Even after certain of such restrictions are lifted or
reduced, the willingness of customers to visit our tenants' businesses may be
reduced due to lingering concerns regarding the continued risk of COVID-19
transmission and heightened sensitivity to risks associated with the
transmission of other diseases. We are not able to predict the duration of such
customer behavior or the COVID-19 pandemic.

As of July 27, 2020, we have collected approximately 75% of second quarter 2020
Base Rent of $117.4 million, deferred or approved deferrals for approximately
19% and abated or approved abatements for approximately 2%. There is currently a
lesser impact to the second half of 2020, for which we have $9.7 million of rent
deferred (including the maximum impact of arrangements that have a sliding scale
based on performance of the underlying property) and $1.3 million of rent
abated. For the remaining deferred rent, the deferral periods range generally
from one to six months, with an average deferral period of three months and an
average repayment period of 12 months. Of the tenants who we have granted rent
deferrals, 20% are public companies and the weighted average remaining lease
term of leases with deferrals is 7.6 years (based on Base Rent). Although we are
and will continue to be actively engaged in rent collection efforts related to
uncollected rent, as well

                                       37

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


as working with certain tenants who have requested rent deferrals, we can
provide no assurance that such efforts or our efforts in future periods will be
successful, particularly in the event that the COVID-19 pandemic and
restrictions intended to prevent its spread continue for a prolonged period.
Refer to "Part II-Other Information, Item 1A. Risk Factors" for additional
information about the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions
intended to prevent its spread on our business, financial condition, results of
operations, cash flows, liquidity and ability to satisfy our debt service
obligations and make distributions to our stockholders.

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 the
section entitled "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2019. We have not made any material changes to these policies
during the periods covered by this quarterly report.

Total rental income                                    $      117,190       $      106,506


We were a net acquirer of income-producing real estate over the trailing
twelve-month period, resulting in an increase in our Base Cash Rent
period-over-period. During the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2020, we
acquired 237 properties, with a Real Estate Investment Value of $1.06 billion,
and disposed of 29 properties, with a Real Estate Investment Value of $115.0
million. The increase was partially offset by an increase in reserves on rental
income driven by tenant credit issues from the COVID-19 pandemic from a net
recovery of $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019 to net
reserves of $4.8 million for three months ended June 30, 2020. The increase
period-over-period was also reduced by $2.4 million of rent abatements for the
three months ended June 30, 2020, executed as relief due to the COVID-19
pandemic. Finally, included in the Base Cash Rent for the three months ended
June 30, 2020 are rent deferrals related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic
of $22.3 million.

The primary component of variable cash rent is tenant reimbursements, where our
tenants are obligated under the lease agreement to reimburse us for certain
property costs we incur, and non-cash rental income. Tenant reimbursement income
was $2.4 million and $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and
2019, respectively, and was driven by the tenant reimbursable property costs
described below. These amounts represented approximately 2.0% and 2.6% of rental
income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Non-cash rental income consists of straight-line rental revenue, amortization of
above- and below-market lease intangibles and bad debt expense. Non-cash rental
income remained relatively flat period-over-period as the increase in
straight-line rental revenue related to net acquisitions was almost fully offset
by an increase in reserves on straight-line rental revenue period-over-period as
a result of increased tenant credit issues.

Related party fee income



In conjunction with the Spin-Off, we entered into the Asset Management Agreement
with SMTA pursuant to which we provided a management team responsible for
implementing SMTA 's business strategy and performing certain services for SMTA.
Under this agreement, we recognized $5.0 million of revenues during the three
months ended June 30, 2019. Additionally, under the terms of this agreement, we
recognized $0.4 million of stock compensation awarded by SMTA to an employee of
Spirit for the three months ended June 30, 2019, which was fully offset by $0.4
million in general and administrative expenses recognized for other
compensation. This agreement was terminated in conjunction with SMTA's sale of
Master Trust 2014 on September 20, 2019. We entered into an Interim Management
Agreement for an initial annual fee of $1.0 million, under which we agreed to
manage and liquidate the remaining SMTA assets. Under this agreement, we
recognized $0.2 million of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2020. On
March 18, 2020, we provided notification to SMTA that we intend to terminate the
Interim Management Agreement, effective as of September 14, 2020.

Additionally, we provided property management services and special services for
Master Trust 2014, which was contributed to SMTA as part of the Spin-Off. As a
result, for the three months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized $1.9 million in
revenue under the terms of the Property Management and Servicing Agreement. This
agreement was terminated in the third quarter of 2019 in conjunction with SMTA's
sale of Master Trust 2014.

EXPENSES

General and administrative

Period-over-period general and administrative expenses decreased, driven by a
decrease in compensation expenses of $2.1 million, primarily as a result of
decreased accruals for market-based and merit-based compensation, as well as a
decrease of $0.2 million in travel expenses as a result of the COVID-19
pandemic. This decrease was partially offset by $0.7 million of expenses
recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2020 related to the COVID-19
pandemic, primarily as a result of increased legal fees for executing rent
deferral or abatement agreements.

                                       39

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Property costs (including reimbursable)



For the three months ended June 30, 2020, property costs were $7.2 million
(including $3.0 million of tenant reimbursable expenses), compared to $4.4
million (including $3.5 million of tenant reimbursable expenses) for the same
period in 2019. As such, reimbursable property costs decreased
period-over-period, primarily due to certain property taxes no longer being
considered recoverable. The increase in non-reimbursable costs of $3.3 million
was driven primarily by an increase in non-reimbursable property taxes of $2.7
million due to bankruptcies and tenant credit issues from the COVID-19 pandemic,
as well as an increase in non-reimbursable property-level legal expenses of $0.6
million.

Interest

The increase in interest expense was driven by the issuance of the 2029 Senior
Notes in the second quarter of 2019, the 2027 Senior Notes and 2030 Senior Notes
in the third quarter of 2019 and the 2020 Term Loans in the second quarter of
2020. The increase was partially offset by the following:

• the maturity and repayment of the $402.5 million aggregate principal amount

of 2.875% Convertible 2019 Notes on May 15, 2019,

• the early repayment of the Master Trust 2013 notes on June 20, 2019, and

• the repayment and termination of the A-1 Term Loans and A-2 Term Loans on

September 16, 2019,

• and lower usage under the revolving credit facilities period-over-period.

The following table summarizes our interest expense on related borrowings:

three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Depreciation and amortization



We were a net acquirer during the trailing twelve-month period of $949.3 million
of Real Estate Investment Value, resulting in an increase period-over-period in
depreciation and amortization. The following table summarizes our depreciation
and amortization expense:

Total depreciation and amortization $ 53,160 $ 41,342

Impairments



During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded impairment losses of
$21.0 million. Impairment of $1.0 million was recorded on three Vacant
properties held for use. Impairment of $1.6 million was recorded on
underperforming properties, comprised of $1.6 million on two underperforming
properties held for use and a de minimis amount on one underperforming property
held for sale. Impairment of $18.6 million was recorded on lease intangible
assets, primarily as a result of a tenant bankruptcy that had credit issues
prior to the COVID-19 pandemic that resulted in the termination of the lease for
four properties. Finally, we reversed $0.2 million of previously recorded
allowance for loan loss as a result of the loan nearing its maturity without
changes to the borrower's credit quality indicators.

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded impairment losses of
$3.6 million. Impairment of $0.1 million was recorded on one Vacant property
held for use. Impairment of $3.2 million was recorded on underperforming
properties, comprised of $2.5 million recorded on five underperforming
properties held for use and $0.7 million recorded on one underperforming
property held for sale. The remaining impairment charges of $0.3 million were
recorded on lease intangible assets.

                                       40

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Loss on debt extinguishment



During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we did not extinguish any debt.
During the three months ended June 30, 2019, we retired the remaining Master
Trust 2013 notes, which had $158.5 million of aggregate principal outstanding
and a stated interest rate of 5.27%. This resulted in a loss on debt of
extinguishment of $14.7 million, primarily as a result of early repayment
penalties.

Gain on disposition of assets

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we disposed of three Vacant properties, resulting in net gains totaling $0.7 million. For the same period in 2019, we disposed of 18 properties and recorded net gains totaling $29.8 million. There were $28.6 million in net gains on the sale of eight active properties and $1.2 million in net gains on the sale of ten Vacant properties.

Preferred dividend income from SMTA



As part of the Spin-Off, SMTA issued to us 10% Series A preferred shares with an
aggregate liquidation preference of $150.0 million. For the three months ended
June 30, 2019, we recognized preferred dividend income of $3.8 million from
these shares. In September 2019, in conjunction with SMTA's sale of Master Trust
2014, SMTA repurchased the preferred shares at their aggregate liquidation
preference.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


We were a net acquirer of income-producing real estate over the trailing
twelve-month period, resulting in an increase in our Base Cash Rent
period-over-period. During the trailing twelve months ended June 30, 2020, we
acquired 237 properties, with a Real Estate Investment Value of $1.06 billion,
and disposed of 29 properties, with a Real Estate Investment Value of $115.0
million. The increase was partially offset by an increase in reserves on rental
income driven by tenant credit issues from the COVID-19 pandemic from a net
recovery of $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019 to net reserves
of $5.6 million for six months ended June 30, 2020. The increase
period-over-period was also reduced by $2.4 million of rent abatements for the
six months ended June 30, 2020, executed as relief due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Finally, included in the Base Cash Rent for the six months ended June 30, 2020
are rent deferrals related to the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic of $22.3
million.

The primary component of variable cash rent is tenant reimbursements, where our
tenants are obligated under the lease agreement to reimburse us for certain
property costs we incur, and non-cash rental income. Tenant reimbursement income
was $5.5 million and $6.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and
2019, respectively, and was driven by the tenant reimbursable property costs
described below. These amounts represented approximately 2.3% and 3.0% of rental
income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Non-cash rental income consists of straight-line rental revenue, amortization of
above- and below-market lease intangibles and bad debt expense. The remaining
decrease in non-cash rental income was primarily driven by an increase in
reserves on straight-line rental revenue period-over-period as a result of
increased tenant credit issues, which was partially offset by an increase in
straight-line rental revenue related to net acquisitions.

Related party fee income



In conjunction with the Spin-Off, we entered into the Asset Management Agreement
with SMTA pursuant to which we provided a management team responsible for
implementing SMTA's business strategy and performing certain services for SMTA.
Under this agreement, we recognized $10.0 million of revenues during the six
months ended June 30, 2019. Additionally, under the terms of this agreement, we
recognized $0.4 million of stock compensation awarded by SMTA to an employee of
Spirit for the six months ended June 30, 2019, which was fully offset by $0.4
million in general and administrative expenses recognized for other
compensation. This agreement was terminated in conjunction with SMTA's sale of
Master Trust 2014 on September 20, 2019. We entered into an Interim Management
Agreement for an initial annual fee of $1.0 million, under which we agreed to
manage and liquidate the remaining SMTA assets. Under this agreement, we
recognized $0.5 million of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2020. On
March 18, 2020, we provided notification to SMTA that we intend to terminate the
Interim Management Agreement, effective as of September 14, 2020.

Additionally, we provided property management services and special services for
Master Trust 2014, which was contributed to SMTA as part of the Spin-Off. As a
result, for the six months ended June 30, 2019, we recognized $3.8 million in
revenue under the terms of the Property Management and Servicing Agreement. This
agreement was terminated in the third quarter of 2019 in conjunction with SMTA's
sale of Master Trust 2014.

EXPENSES

General and administrative

Period-over-period general and administrative expenses decreased, driven by a
decrease in compensation expenses of $2.5 million, primarily as a result of
decreased accruals for market-based and merit-based compensation, as well as a
decrease of $0.3 million in travel expenses as a result of the COVID-19
pandemic. This decrease was partially offset by $0.7 million of expenses
recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2020 related to the COVID-19
pandemic, primarily as a result of increased legal fees for executing rent
deferral or abatement agreements.

Property costs (including reimbursable)



For the six months ended June 30, 2020, property costs were $13.2 million
(including $6.6 million of tenant reimbursable expenses) compared to $9.6
million (including $7.6 million of tenant reimbursable expenses) for the same
period in 2019. As such, reimbursable property costs decreased
period-over-period, primarily due to certain property taxes no longer being
considered recoverable. The increase in non-reimbursable costs of $4.6 million
was driven primarily by an increase in non-reimbursable property taxes of $4.0
million due to bankruptcies and tenant credit issues from the COVID-19 pandemic,
as well as an increase in non-reimbursable property-level legal expenses of $0.6
million.

Interest

The decrease in interest expense was driven by the following:

• the extinguishment of $10.4 million aggregate principal amount of CMBS

indebtedness on one defaulted loan in the first quarter of 2019, which had a


      default interest rate of 9.85%,


                                       42

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

• the maturity and repayment of the $402.5 million aggregate principal amount

of 2.875% Convertible 2019 Notes on May 15, 2019,

• the early repayment of the Master Trust 2013 notes on June 20, 2019, and

• the repayment and termination of the A-1 Term Loans and A-2 Term Loans on

September 16, 2019.




The decrease was partially offset by the issuance of the 2029 Senior Notes in
the second quarter of 2019, the 2027 Senior Notes and 2030 Senior Notes in the
third quarter of 2019 and the 2020 Term Loans in the second quarter of 2020.

The following table summarizes our interest expense on related borrowings:

Depreciation and amortization



We were a net acquirer during the trailing twelve-month period of $949.3 million
of Real Estate Investment Value, resulting in an increase period-over-period in
depreciation and amortization. The following table summarizes our depreciation
and amortization expense:

                                        Six Months Ended June 30,

Total depreciation and amortization $ 105,396 $ 82,691

Impairments



During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we recorded impairment losses of
$61.8 million. Impairment of $1.3 million was recorded on five Vacant properties
held for use. Impairment of $41.3 million was recorded on underperforming
properties, comprised of $41.2 million on 20 underperforming properties held for
use and $0.1 on one underperforming property held for sale. Impairment of $18.8
million was recorded on lease intangible assets, primarily as a result of a
tenant bankruptcy that had credit issues prior to the COVID-19 pandemic that
resulted in the termination of the lease for four properties. Finally, we
recorded allowances for credit losses of $0.3 million on our direct financing
lease and $0.1 million on our remaining loans receivable.

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we recorded impairment losses of $7.3
million. Impairment of $1.2 million was recorded on Vacant properties, comprised
of $0.2 million recorded on two Vacant held for use properties and $1.0 million
recorded on one Vacant held for sale property. Impairment of $6.3 million was
recorded on underperforming properties, comprised of $2.5 million recorded on
five underperforming properties held for use and $3.8 million recorded on nine
underperforming properties held for sale. These impairment charges were
partially offset by $0.2 million of net impairment on lease intangible
liabilities.

Loss on debt extinguishment



During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we did not extinguish any debt.
During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we retired the remaining Master Trust
2013 notes, which had $158.5 million of aggregate principal outstanding and a
stated interest rate of 5.27%. This resulted in a loss on debt of extinguishment
of $14.7 million, primarily as a result of early repayment penalties.
Additionally, we incurred a loss on debt extinguishment of $0.7 million as a
result of the termination of the 2015 Credit Agreement and 2015 Term Loan
Agreement in conjunction with entering into the 2019 Revolving Credit and Term
Loan Agreement. These losses were partially offset by a gain on debt
extinguishment of $9.5 million as a result of extinguishing $10.4 million
aggregate principal amount of CMBS indebtedness on one defaulted loan, which was
secured by one property.

                                       43

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Gain on disposition of assets



During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we disposed of ten properties,
resulting in net gains totaling $1.0 million. There were $1.4 million in net
gains on the sale of six Vacant properties and minimal net gains on the sale of
four active properties. These gains were partially offset by a $0.2 million loss
recorded on the sale of a notes receivable and $0.2 million in other net
losses.

For the same period in 2019, we disposed of 25 properties and recorded net gains
totaling $38.5 million. There were $37.3 million in net gains on the sale of 12
active properties and $1.2 million in net gains on the sale of ten Vacant
properties. One property was returned to the lender in conjunction with CMBS
debt extinguishment and two properties were leasehold interests that were
surrendered to the lessors, which did not result in a gain/loss on disposition.

Preferred dividend income from SMTA



As part of the Spin-Off, SMTA issued to us 10% Series A preferred shares with an
aggregate liquidation preference of $150.0 million. For the six months ended
June 30, 2019, we recognized preferred dividend income of $7.5 million from
these shares. In September 2019, in conjunction with SMTA's sale of Master Trust
2014, SMTA repurchased the preferred shares at their aggregate liquidation
preference.

FORWARD EQUITY OFFERING



In June 2020, we entered into forward sale agreements with certain financial
institutions acting as forward purchasers in connection with an offering of 9.2
million shares of common stock at an initial public offering price of $37.35 per
share, before underwriting discounts and offering expenses. The forward
purchasers borrowed and sold an aggregate of 9.2 million shares of common stock
in the offering. We did not receive any proceeds from the sale of our shares of
common stock by the forward purchasers at the time of the offering. We intend
(subject to our right to elect cash or net share settlement subject to certain
conditions) to deliver, upon physical settlement of the forward sale agreements
on one or more dates specified by us occurring no later than December 8, 2021,
an aggregate of 9.2 million shares of our common stock to the forward purchasers
in exchange for cash proceeds per share equal to the applicable forward sale
price. The forward sale price that we will receive upon physical settlement of
the agreements, which was initially $35.856 per share, will be subject to
adjustment for (i) a floating interest rate factor equal to a specified daily
rate less a spread, (ii) the forward purchasers' stock borrowing costs and (iii)
scheduled dividends during the term of the forward sale agreements. As of
June 30, 2020, none of these shares had been settled.

ATM PROGRAM



In November 2016, the Board of Directors approved a $500.0 million ATM Program.
In February 2019, we updated the ATM Program, pursuant to which we may from time
to time offer and sell shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross
sales price of up to $500.0 million through the agents, as our sales agents or,
if applicable, as forward sellers, or directly to the agents acting as
principals. Sales of shares of our common stock under the ATM Program may be
made in sales deemed to be "at the market offerings" as defined in Rule 415
under the Securities Act.

The ATM Program contemplates that, in addition to the issuance and sale by us of
shares of our common stock to or through the agents, we may enter into separate
forward sale agreements with one of the agents or one of their respective
affiliates (in such capacity, each, a "forward purchaser" and, collectively, the
"forward purchasers"). When we enter into a forward sale agreement with any
forward purchaser, we expect that such forward purchaser will attempt to borrow
from third parties and sell, through the relevant agent, acting as sales agent
for such forward purchaser, shares of our common stock to hedge such forward
purchaser's exposure under such forward sale agreement. We will not initially
receive any proceeds from any sale of shares of our common stock borrowed by a
forward purchaser and sold through a forward seller.

We currently expect to fully physically settle any forward sale agreement with
the relevant forward purchaser on one or more dates specified by us on or prior
to the maturity date of such forward sale agreement, in which case we expect to
receive aggregate net cash proceeds at settlement equal to the number of shares
specified in such forward sale agreement multiplied by the relevant forward
price per share. However, subject to certain exceptions, we may also elect, in
our sole discretion, to cash settle or net share settle all or any portion of
our obligations under any forward sale agreement, in which case we may not
receive any proceeds (in the case of cash settlement) or will not receive any
proceeds (in the case of net share settlement), and we may owe cash (in the case
of cash settlement) or shares of our common stock (in the case of net share
settlement) to the relevant forward purchaser.

As of June 30, 2020, 5.6 million shares of our common stock have been sold under
the ATM Program. 3.8 million of the sales were sold by forward purchasers
through agents under the ATM Program and pursuant to forward sales agreements.
The forward sale price that we received upon physical settlement of the
agreements was subject to adjustment for (i) a floating interest rate factor
equal to a specified daily rate less a spread, (ii) the forward purchasers'
stock borrowing costs and (iii) scheduled dividends during the term of the
forward sale agreements. 0.4 million of the shares were sold during the six
months ended June 30, 2020, all under forward sales agreements, for net proceeds
of $17.6 million, after giving effect to sales agent commissions and other
issuance fees of $0.3 million. As of June 30, 2020, we had physically settled
our obligations under our existing forward sales agreements and there were no
open forward sales agreements. We had remaining capacity to sell common stock
having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $246.3 million under the ATM
Program as of June 30, 2020.

SHORT-TERM LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES



On a short-term basis, our principal demands for funds will be for operating
expenses, acquisitions, distributions to stockholders and payment of interest
and principal on current and any future debt financings. We expect to fund these
demands primarily through cash provided by operating activities, borrowings
under the 2019 Credit Facility and, when market conditions warrant, issuances of
equity securities, including shares of our common stock under our ATM program.
As of June 30, 2020, available liquidity was comprised of $97.2 million in cash
and cash equivalents, $800.0 million of borrowing capacity under the 2019 Credit
Facility and $12.2 million in restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents.
We also have remaining capacity to sell common stock having an aggregate gross
sales price of up to $246.3 million under our

                                       48

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ATM Program as of June 30, 2020 and $324.0 million of expected proceeds available assuming the full physical settlement of our open forward equity contracts. We believe that this available liquidity makes us well positioned to navigate any macroeconomic uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic restrictions intended to prevent its spread.

LONG-TERM LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES



We plan to meet our long-term capital needs, including long-term financing of
property acquisitions, by issuing registered debt or equity securities, by
obtaining asset level financing and by issuing fixed-rate secured or unsecured
notes and bonds. In the future, some of our property acquisitions could be made
by issuing partnership interests of our Operating Partnership in exchange for
property owned by third parties. These partnership interests would be
exchangeable for cash or, at our election, shares of our common stock. We
continually evaluate financing alternatives and believe that we can obtain
financing on reasonable terms. However, we cannot be sure that we will have
access to the capital markets at times and on terms that are acceptable to us.
Refer to "Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors" of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
for the period ended March 31, 2020 for additional information about the
potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions intended to prevent
its spread on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash
flows, liquidity and ability to satisfy our debt service obligations and make
distributions to our stockholders. We expect that our primary uses of capital
will be for property and other asset acquisitions, the payment of tenant
improvements, operating expenses, debt service payments and distributions to our
stockholders.

DESCRIPTION OF CERTAIN DEBT

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

2019 Credit Facility



As of June 30, 2020, the aggregate gross commitment under the 2019 Credit
Facility was $800.0 million, which may be increased up to $1.2 billion by
exercising an accordion feature, subject to satisfying certain requirements and
obtaining additional lender commitments. The 2019 Credit Facility has a maturity
of March 31, 2023 and includes two six-month extensions that can be exercised at
our option.

We may voluntarily prepay the 2019 Credit Facility, in whole or in part, at any
time without premium or penalty. Payment of the 2019 Credit Facility is
unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and material subsidiaries that meet
certain conditions (as defined in the 2019 Facilities Agreements). As of
June 30, 2020, there were no subsidiaries that met this requirement.

As of June 30, 2020, the 2019 Credit Facility bore interest at 1-Month LIBOR
plus 0.90%, with no borrowings outstanding, and a ratings-based facility fee in
the amount of 0.20% per annum. As of June 30, 2020, there were no letters of
credit outstanding.

Term Loans

As of June 30, 2020, the full borrowing capacity of $400.0 million under the
2020 Term Loan Agreement was drawn. The 2020 Term Loans have a maturity of April
2, 2022 and bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 1.50%
per annum. If any loans are outstanding after April 2, 2021, the Operating
Partnership will be required to pay a one-time fee in an amount equal to 0.20%
of the outstanding principal amount of loans.

Senior Unsecured Notes



As of June 30, 2020, we had the following Senior Unsecured Notes outstanding
(dollars in thousands):

                                                         Stated            June 30,

Total Senior Unsecured Notes                              3.73%         $     1,500,000


The Senior Unsecured Notes are payable on January 15 and July 15 of each year,
except for the 2026 Senior Notes, which are payable on March 15 and September 15
of each year. 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 respective 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
respective indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any of the Senior
Unsecured Notes are

                                       49

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


redeemed three months or less (or two months or less in the case of the 2027
Senior Notes) prior to their respective maturity dates, the redemption price
will not include a make-whole premium.

CMBS



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, 2020, we had five fixed-rate CMBS loans with $216.3 million of
aggregate outstanding principal, a weighted-average contractual interest rate of
5.47% and a weighted-average maturity of 3.3 years. Approximately 87.06% of this
debt is partially amortizing and requires a balloon payment at maturity. The
following table shows the scheduled principal repayments, including
amortization, of the CMBS fixed-rate loans as of June 30, 2020 (dollars in
thousands):

                                                                          Weighted

Convertible Notes

As of June 30, 2020, the Convertible Notes were comprised of $345.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.75% convertible notes maturing on May 15, 2021. Interest on the 2021 Notes is payable semiannually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year.



Holders may convert the 2021 Notes prior to November 15, 2020 only under
specific circumstances: (1) if the closing price of our common stock for each of
at last 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during the last 30
consecutive trading days in the quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the
conversion price for the Convertible Notes; (2) during the five business day
period after any 10 consecutive trading day period in which the trading price
per $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes for each trading day of the
measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last closing price of
our common stock and the conversion rate for the Convertible Notes; (3) if we
call any or all of the Convertible Notes for redemption prior to the redemption
date; or (4) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as described in
the Convertible Notes prospectus supplement. On or after November 15, 2020,
until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately
preceding the maturity date of the 2021 Notes, holders may convert the 2021
Notes at any time, regardless of the foregoing circumstances. 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.

The conversion rate is subject to adjustment for some events, including
dividends paid in excess of threshold amounts stipulated in the agreement, but
will not be adjusted for any accrued and unpaid interest. As of June 30, 2020,
the conversion rate was 17.4458 per $1,000 principal note. If we undergo a
fundamental change (as defined in the 2021 Notes' supplemental indenture),
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 such notes to be
repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS



As discussed above, during the six months ended June 30, 2020, we entered into
the 2020 Term Loan Agreement to reduce the amounts drawn under the 2019 Credit
Facility. There were no other 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,
2019, 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 are generally classified
as ordinary income, whereas distributions in excess of our current and
accumulated earnings, to the extent of a stockholder's federal income tax basis
in our common stock, are generally characterized as a return of capital. Under
the 2017 Tax Legislation, U.S. stockholders that are individuals, trusts and
estates generally may deduct up to 20% of the ordinary dividends (e.g.,
dividends not designated as capital gain dividends or qualified dividend income)
received from a REIT for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017 and
before January 1, 2026. 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. Refer to "Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors" of our Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2020 for additional
information about the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions
intended to prevent its spread on our business, financial condition, results of
operations, cash flows, liquidity and ability to satisfy our debt service
obligations and make distributions to our stockholders.

Cash Flows

The following table presents a summary of our cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively (in thousands):



                                                   Six Months Ended June 

30,


                                                     2020               2019          Change
Net cash provided by operating activities        $     133,011       $  144,275     $  (11,264 )
Net cash used in investing activities                 (206,840 )       (301,934 )       95,094
Net cash provided by financing activities              157,191          101,227         55,964
Net increase (decrease) in cash, cash
equivalents and restricted cash                  $      83,362       $  

(56,432 ) $ 139,794

As of June 30, 2020, we had $109.4 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash as compared to $26.0 million as of December 31, 2019 and $21.0 million as of June 30, 2019.

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 decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily attributable to the following:

• a decrease in related party fee income of $13.7 million as a result of the

termination of the Asset Management Agreement in September 2019, which was


      replaced by the Interim Management Agreement, and


                                       51

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

• a decrease in preferred dividends received from SMTA of $7.5 million as a

result of SMTA repurchasing the preferred shares in September 2019.

The decrease was partially offset by the following:

• a net increase in cash rental revenue of $7.9 million, driven by net

acquisitions over the trailing twelve month period, but partially offset by

$22.1 million of rent deferred and $2.4 million of rent abated during the

three months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and

• a decrease in cash interest paid of $2.3 million, driven by decreases from

the retirement of the Master Trust 2013 notes, 2019 Notes, and A-1 Term

Loans which were partially offset by the issuance of the 2027 Senior Notes,

2029 Senior Notes and 2030 Senior Notes.

Investing Activities



Cash used in investing activities is generally used to fund property
acquisitions, for investments in loans receivable and 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, 2020
included $218.9 million for the acquisition of 29 properties and $8.3 million of
capitalized real estate expenditures. These outflows were partially offset by
the $17.7 million in net proceeds from the disposition of 10 properties and the
sale of one loan receivable. Additionally, the outflows were further offset by
the collection of $2.7 million of principal on loans receivable.

During the same period in 2019, net cash used in investing activities included
$447.5 million for the acquisition of 126 properties and $25.7 million of
capitalized real estate expenditures. These outflows were partially offset by
$163.2 million in net proceeds from the disposition of 25 properties and $8.1
million in collections of principal on loans receivable.

Financing Activities

Generally, our net cash provided by or used in financing activities is impacted by our borrowings under our revolving credit facilities and term loans, issuances of net-lease mortgage notes, common stock and debt offerings and repurchases and dividend payments on our common and preferred stock.



Net cash provided by financing activities during the six months ended June 30,
2020 was primarily attributable to borrowings of $400.0 million under term loans
and net proceeds from the issuance of common stock of $17.6 million. These
amounts were partially offset by net repayments of $116.5 million on our
revolving credit facilities, payment of dividends to equity owners of $135.1
million, deferred financing costs of $2.4 million, repayment of $2.0 million on
mortgages and notes payable and common stock repurchases for employee tax
withholdings totaling $4.4 million.

During the same period in 2019, net cash provided by financing activities was
primarily attributable to net borrowings of $400.0 million under term loans,
issuance of $399.7 million of Senior Unsecured Notes and net proceeds from the
issuance of common stock of $162.3 million. These amounts were partially offset
by the payment of dividends to equity owners of $113.0 million, repayment of
$171.3 million on mortgages and notes payable, net repayments of $146.3 million
on our revolving credit facilities, repayment of $402.5 million on convertible
notes, deferred financing costs of $13.9 million, debt extinguishment costs of
$12.3 million and common stock share repurchases for employee tax withholdings
totaling $1.4 million.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2020, we did not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements.

New Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements herein.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures



FFO: 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 (gains) losses from property
dispositions. 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, impairment charges

and net (gains) losses from property dispositions, 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.

AFFO: AFFO is a non-GAAP financial measure of operating performance used by many
companies in the REIT industry. We adjust FFO to eliminate the impact of certain
items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating performance, such
as debt extinguishment gains (losses), costs associated with termination of
interest rate swaps, costs related to the COVID-19 pandemic and certain non-cash
items. These certain non-cash items include non-cash revenues (comprised of
straight-line rents net of bad debt expense and amortization of lease and loan
receivable intangibles), non-cash interest expense (comprised of amortization of
deferred financing costs and debt discounts/premiums) and non-cash compensation
expense. Other equity REITs may not calculate FFO and AFFO as we do, and,
accordingly, our FFO and AFFO may not be comparable to such other equity REITs'
FFO and AFFO. FFO and AFFO do not represent cash generated from operating
activities determined in accordance with GAAP, are not necessarily indicative of
cash available to fund cash needs and should only be considered a supplement,
and not an alternative, to net income (loss) attributable to common stockholders
(computed in accordance with GAAP) as a performance measure.

Adjusted Debt: Adjusted Debt represents interest bearing debt (reported in
accordance with GAAP) adjusted to exclude unamortized debt discount/premium and
deferred financing costs and reduced by 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.

EBITDAre: EBITDAre is computed in accordance with standards established by NAREIT. EBITDAre is computed as net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP), plus interest expense, income tax expense (if any), depreciation and amortization, impairments of depreciated property and plus/(minus) losses/(gains) on the disposition of depreciated property.



Adjusted EBITDAre: Adjusted EBITDAre represents EBITDAre as adjusted for revenue
producing acquisitions and dispositions for the quarter as if such acquisitions
and dispositions had occurred as of the beginning of the quarter and for certain
items that we believe are not indicative of our core operating performance, such
as debt extinguishment gains (losses) and costs related to the COVID-19
pandemic. 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 only be considered a supplement, and not an alternative, to
net income (loss) (computed in accordance with GAAP) as a performance measure.

Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre: Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre is calculated as
Adjusted EBITDAre for the quarter, adjusted for items where annualization would
not be appropriate, multiplied by four. Our computation of Adjusted EBITDAre and
Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre may differ from the methodology used by other
equity REITs to calculate these measures and, therefore, may not be comparable
to such other REITs.

Adjusted Debt to Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre: Adjusted Debt to Annualized
Adjusted EBITDAre 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.

and primarily relate to legal fees for executing rent deferral or abatement

agreements.

(2) Adjustment for the three months ended June 30, 2020 relates to $4.0 million

of bad debt expense on straight-line rent receivable balances, where only

$1.3 million of the expense relates to straight-line rent that would have


    been recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2020. As such,
    annualization of the $2.7 million of bad debt expense related to
    straight-line rental revenue recognized in previous periods would not be
    appropriate. The $2.7 million adjustment was partially offset by $1.6

million of straight-line rental revenue recognized during the three months


    ended June 30, 2020 for certain leases accounted for as lease
    modifications.


  Adjustment for the three months ended June 30, 2019 relates to $0.9 million of
bad debt expense on straight-line rent receivable balances, where annualization
would only be appropriate for $0.2 million.

(3) Adjustments for the three months ended June 30, 2020 are comprised of

certain other property costs and general and administrative expenses where

annualization would not be appropriate. Adjustments for the three months

ended June 30, 2019 are comprised of reserves and other adjustments where

annualization would not be appropriate.

(4) Adjusted Debt / Annualized Adjusted EBITDAre would be 4.9x if all 9.2 million shares under open forward sales agreements had been settled on June 30, 2020 at the current forward sale price of $35.219 per share.
