Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 28, 2011, American Realty Capital Properties, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with ARC Properties Operating Partnership, L.P. and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc. and Maxim Group LLC, acting as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), related to its underwritten public offering of 1,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Follow-on Offering”). The offering price to the public in the Follow-On Offering is $10.50 per share (before underwriting discounts and commissions). Under the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, the Company has also granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional 225,000 shares of common stock at the initial offering price, less underwriting discounts and commissions. The net proceeds to the Company from the Follow-On Offering are expected to be approximately $14.4 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, assuming no exercise by the Underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares of common stock. The transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement are expected to close on November 2, 2011, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
The Follow-On Offering was made pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-11 (File No. 333-176952), which was declared effective with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 27, 2011, as supplemented by a final prospectus to be filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing, indemnification obligations of the Company and the Underwriters, including for liabilities under the Securities Act, other obligations of the parties and termination provisions. A copy of the Underwriting Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The foregoing description of the terms of Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the Underwriting Agreement.
Certain of the Underwriters and their related entities have engaged, and may in the future engage, in commercial and investment banking transactions with the Company in the ordinary course of its business. These Underwriters and their related entities have received, and expect to receive, customary compensation and expense reimbursement for these commercial and investment banking transactions.
