Item 3.02        Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

On March 29, 2018, Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. (the “Company”) completed the most recent monthly closing of its ongoing private offering of shares of its common stock, par value of $0.001 per share. Currently, the Company closes sales of additional shares of its common stock monthly. At the closing on March 29, 2018, the Company sold 185,185.194 shares of its common stock at a purchase price of $81.00 per share for aggregate sale proceeds of $15,000,000.00.

The $15,000,000 in aggregate sale proceeds was equal to the Company’s existing monthly cap on new and additional investments for March 2018, which was previously announced in the Company’s February 12, 2018, press release. The cap only applies to new or additional investments, and does not apply to the Company’s DRIP (as defined below) or equity capital received in connection with umbrella partnership real estate investment trust (“UPREIT”) transactions. Following the March closing, there was a total of approximately $2,250,643 in the Company’s queue for subsequent equity closings at a per share purchase price of $81.00.

The Company intends to use substantially all of the net proceeds from this closing and each additional closing in its private offering, supplemented with additional borrowings, to continue to invest in additional net leased properties and for general corporate purposes.

The offer and sale of the shares of the Company’s common stock that were issued at the March 29, 2018, closing was conducted in reliance upon the exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), provided by Rule 506(c) under Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.

As of March 29, 2018, there were 19,571,614.178 shares of the Company’s common stock issued and outstanding, including the shares of the Company’s common stock that were issued at the March 29, 2018, closing and 52,600.017 shares that were issued on March 15, 2018, pursuant to the terms of the Company’s Distribution Reinvestment Plan (the “DRIP”). The 52,600.017 shares of the Company’s common stock issued on March 15, 2018, pursuant to the terms of the DRIP (which was below the threshold requiring disclosure under Item 3.02 of Form 8-K), generated aggregate proceeds of $4,175,387.98. The shares issued pursuant to the DRIP were issued at a price of $79.38 per share, representing a 2% discount from the then current Determined Share Value of $81.00 per share.

In addition, as of March 29, 2018, there were 21,114,626.108 units of membership interest in Broadstone Net Lease, LLC, the Company’s subsidiary operating company (the “Operating Company”), issued and outstanding, of which 1,543,011.930, or approximately 7.31%, were noncontrolling interests held by persons who were issued membership units in exchange for their interests in properties acquired by the Operating Company. The Company is the sole managing member of the Operating Company and as of March 29, 2018, owned the remaining approximately 92.69% of the Operating Company’s issued and outstanding membership units. Each outstanding membership unit in the Operating Company is convertible on a one-for-one basis into shares of the Company’s common stock, subject to certain limitations.
