Realty Finance Trust, Inc. 3 RISK FACTORS The following are some of the risks and uncertainties, although not all risks and uncertainties, that could cause our actual res ults to differ materially from those presented in our forward - looking statements : □ We have a limited operating history and Realty Finance Advisors, LLC, our affiliated advisor (the "Advisor"), has limited experi enc e operating a public company. This inexperience makes our future performance difficult to predict. □ All of our executive officers are also officers, managers or holders of a direct or indirect controlling interest in American Fin anc e Advisors, LLC (our "Advisor") or other entities under common control with AR Global Investments, LLC (the successor business to AR Capital, LL C, "AR Global"), the parent of our sponsor, American Realty Capital VIII, LLC (the "Sponsor"). As a result, our executive officers, our Advisor and its affiliates face conflicts of interest, including significant conflicts created by our Advisor's compensation arrangements wit h u s and other investment programs advised by affiliates of AR Global and conflicts in allocating time among these entities and us, which could negativ ely impact our operating results. □ We terminated our primary offering in January 2016 and therefore, absent raising capital from other sources, will have less cash fr om financing activities with which to make investments, repay indebtedness, fund our operations or pay distributions. □ No public trading market currently exists, or may ever exist, for shares of our common stock and our shares are, and may continu e t o be, illiquid. □ Increases in interest rates could increase the amount of our debt payments and limit our ability to pay distributions to our stockholde rs. □ If we and our Advisor are unable to find sufficient suitable investments, then we may not be able to achieve our investment obje cti ves or pay distributions. □ We may be unable to pay or maintain cash distributions or increase distributions over time. Our board of directors may decide th at maintaining cash distributions at current levels is not in our best interests given investment opportunities or for other reasons . □ We are obligated to pay substantial fees to our Advisor and its affiliates. □ We may fail to continue to qualify to be treated as a real estate investment trust ("REIT") for U.S. federal income tax purpo ses . □ We may be deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Ac t") , and thus subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act.
