RECITALS:
A. American Realty Capital Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Borrower”), is party to that certain Term Loan Agreement, dated as of April 16, 2012 (the “Existing Term Loan Agreement”), among Borrower, Guarantor, each lender from time to time party thereto (the “Existing Lenders”), and ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Existing Lenders (“Administrative Agent”). Capitalized terms used herein shall, unless otherwise indicated, have the respective meanings set forth in the Term Loan Agreement.
B. In connection with the Existing Term Loan Agreement, Guarantor entered into that certain Parent Guaranty Agreement, dated as of April 16, 2012 (the “Existing Guaranty”), in favor of Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Existing Lenders, to guaranty the repayment of the Guaranteed Obligations (as defined in the Existing Guaranty) under the Existing Term Loan Agreement.
C. Borrower, Guarantor, the Existing Lenders and Administrative Agent have agreed to amend and restate the Existing Term Loan Agreement pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement dated as of the date hereof (as same may be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Term Loan Agreement”) among Borrower, Guarantor, the lenders from time to time party thereto (including any Existing Lenders, the “Lenders”) and Administrative Agent (Administrative Agent and the Lenders, together with their respective successors and assigns, are each a “Credit Party,” and collectively the “Credit Parties”), which Term Loan Agreement, among other things, re-evidences the Borrower’s outstanding obligations under the Existing Term Loan Agreement and provides, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, for extensions of credit to be made by the Lenders to or for the benefit of Borrower.
D. The Guarantor wishes to affirm its obligations under the terms of the Existing Guaranty and wishes to amend and restate the terms of the Existing Guaranty.
E. Guarantor is the general partner of, and holds Equity Interests in, Borrower and will benefit from the Credit Parties’ extension of credit to Borrower.
F. This Guaranty is integral to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, and the execution and delivery hereof is a condition precedent to the Credit Parties’ obligations to extend credit to Borrower under the Loan Documents.
NOW, THEREFORE, as an inducement to the Credit Parties to enter into the Term Loan Agreement and to make Loans to Borrower thereunder, and to extend such credit to Borrower as the Credit Parties may from time to time agree to extend, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Guarantor hereby guarantees payment of the Guaranteed Obligations (hereinafter defined) and hereby agrees as follows:
Section 1. Nature of Guaranty. Guarantor hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees, as a guarantee of payment and not merely as a guarantee of collection, prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of any and all existing and future Obligations including, without limitation, all indebtedness and liabilities of every kind, nature and character, direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, voluntary or involuntary, of Borrower to the Credit Parties arising under the Term Loan Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all renewals, extensions, modifications, amendments, and restatements thereof and all costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by any Credit Party in connection with the collection or enforcement thereof) including, without limitation, any and all environmental indemnifications contained in the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Administrative Agent’s books and records showing the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding, and shall be binding upon Guarantor and conclusive for the purpose of establishing the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations. This Guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity, or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any Guaranteed Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, or extent of any collateral therefor, or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Guaranteed Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty.
Section 2. No Setoff or Deductions; Taxes. Guarantor represents and warrants that it is incorporated and resident in the United States of America. All payments by Guarantor hereunder shall be paid in full, without setoff or counterclaim or any deduction or withholding whatsoever, including, without limitation, for any and all present and future taxes. If Guarantor must make a payment under this Guaranty, then Guarantor represents and warrants that it will make the payment from its offices located in the United States of America to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, so that no withholding tax is imposed on such payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Guarantor makes a payment under this Guaranty to which withholding tax applies, or any taxes (other than Excluded Taxes) are at any time imposed on any payments under or in respect of this Guaranty including, but not limited to, payments made pursuant to this Section 2, then Guarantor shall pay all such taxes to the relevant authority in accordance with applicable law such that each Credit Party, as applicable, receives the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made and shall also pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, on demand, all additional amounts which Administrative Agent specifies as necessary to preserve the after-tax yield the Credit Parties would have received if such taxes had not been imposed. Guarantor shall promptly provide Administrative Agent with an original receipt or certified copy issued by the relevant authority evidencing the payment of any such amount required to be deducted or withheld.
Section 3. No Termination. This Guaranty is a continuing and irrevocable guaranty of all Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations and any other amounts payable under this Guaranty are indefeasibly paid and performed in full and any commitments of the Credit Parties or facilities provided by the Credit Parties with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations are terminated. All payments under this Guaranty shall be made at Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars.
Section 4. Waiver of Notices. Guarantor waives notice of the acceptance of this Guaranty and of the extension or continuation of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof. Guarantor further waives presentment, protest, notice, dishonor or default, demand for payment, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration, and any other notices to which Guarantor might otherwise be entitled.
Section 5. NO SUBROGATION. Guarantor shall not exercise any right of subrogation, contribution, or similar rights with respect to any payments it makes under this Guaranty until all of the Guaranteed Obligations and any amounts payable under this Guaranty are indefeasibly paid and performed in full and any commitments of the Credit Parties or facilities provided by the Credit Parties with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations are terminated. If any amounts are paid to Guarantor in violation of the foregoing limitation, then such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Credit Parties and shall forthwith be paid to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, to reduce the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.

Section 6. Waiver of Suretyship Defenses. Guarantor agrees that the Credit Parties may, at any time and from time to time, and without notice to Guarantor, make any agreement with Borrower or with any other person or entity liable on any of the Guaranteed Obligations or providing collateral as security for the Guaranteed Obligations, for the extension, renewal, payment, compromise, discharge, or release of the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral (in whole or in part), or for any modification or amendment of the terms thereof or of any instrument or agreement evidencing the Guaranteed Obligations or the provision of collateral, all without in any way impairing, releasing, discharging, or otherwise affecting the obligations of Guarantor under this Guaranty. Guarantor waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of Borrower or any other guarantor, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Borrower, or any claim that Guarantor’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of Borrower and waives the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the liability of Guarantor hereunder. Guarantor waives any right to enforce any remedy which Guarantor now has or may hereafter have against Borrower and waives any benefit of and any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Credit Parties. Further, Guarantor consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of Guarantor under this Guaranty or which, but for this provision, might operate as a discharge of Guarantor.
Section 7. Exhaustion of Other Remedies Not Required. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder are those of primary obligor, and not merely as surety, and are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor waives diligence by any of the Credit Parties and action on delinquency in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, including, without limitation any provisions of law requiring any Credit Party to exhaust any right or remedy or to take any action against Borrower, any other guarantor, or any other person, entity, or property before enforcing this Guaranty against Guarantor.
Section 8. Reinstatement. Notwithstanding anything in this Guaranty to the contrary, this Guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by a Credit Party in its discretion) is revoked, terminated, rescinded, or reduced or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of Borrower or any other person or entity or otherwise, as if such payment had not been made and whether or not Administrative Agent is in possession of or has released this Guaranty and regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction.
Section 9. Subordination. Guarantor hereby expressly subordinates the payment of all obligations and indebtedness of Borrower owing to Guarantor, whether now existing or hereafter arising and whether those obligations are (a) direct, indirect, fixed, contingent, liquidated, unliquidated, joint, several, or joint and several, (b) due or to become due to Guarantor, (c) held by or are to be held by Guarantor, (d) created directly or acquired by assignment or otherwise, or (e) evidenced in writing (collectively, the “Subordinated Debt”) to the indefeasible payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor agrees not to accept any payment in respect of any such Subordinated Debt from Borrower if a Default exists. If Guarantor receives any payment in respect of any Subordinated Debt in violation of the foregoing, then Guarantor shall hold that payment in trust for the Credit Parties and promptly turn it over to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Credit Parties, in the form received (with any necessary endorsements), to be applied in accordance with the Term Loan Agreement, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty.

Section 10. Stay of Acceleration. In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of Borrower or any other person or entity, or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by Guarantor immediately upon demand by Administrative Agent.
Section 11. INDEMNIFICATION AND Expenses.
(a) Guarantor agrees to indemnify each Credit Party from and against any and all claims, losses, and liabilities in any way relating to, growing out of, or resulting from this Guaranty and the transactions contemplated hereby (including, without limitation, enforcement of this Guaranty), except to the extent such claims, losses, or liabilities result from such Credit Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
(b) Guarantor shall indemnify each Credit Party and each Related Party of any of the Credit Parties (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and related expenses (including, without limitation, the fees, charges, and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), and shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from all fees and time charges and disbursements for attorneys who may be employees of any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or any Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery or enforcement of this Guaranty or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, or, in the case of Administrative Agent and its Related Parties only, the administration of this Guaranty; or (ii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation, or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort, or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee and its Related Parties, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties.
(c) Guarantor shall pay to Administrative Agent upon demand the amount of any and all costs and expenses, including the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts and agents, that Administrative Agent may incur in connection with the administration of this Guaranty, including, without limitation, any such costs and expenses incurred in the preservation, protection, or enforcement of any rights of any Credit Party in any case commenced by or against Guarantor under the Bankruptcy Code (Title 11, United States Code) or any similar or successor statute. The obligations of Guarantor under the preceding sentence shall survive termination of this Guaranty.
Section 12. AMENDMENTS. No amendment, modification, termination, or waiver of any provision of this Guaranty, and no consent to any departure by Guarantor from the terms and conditions hereof, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Administrative Agent and Guarantor.
