Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 7, 2011, the board of directors of American Realty Capital Properties, Inc. (the "Company") approved the assumption by the Company of an Assignment and Assumption of Agreement for Purchase and Sale (the "Assignment and Assumption"), dated October 27, 2011, by and between Elman Investors, Inc. and ARC GSFRENY001, LLC (the "Assignor") in connection with the contemplated acquisition of a fee simple interest in an office building located in Freeport, New York.  The property contains approximately 12,000 square feet and is leased to the United States of America.  The original lease term was ten years, with a remaining term of 7.4 years.  84 Main, LLC, the seller of the property pursuant to the underlying Purchase and Sale Agreement (the "Purchase and Sale Agreement"), dated October 26, 2011, and Elman Investors, Inc. are unaffiliated third parties.  The Assignor is an affiliate of American Realty Capital II, LLC, the Company's sponsor.
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Company's obligation to close upon the acquisition of the property is subject to its satisfactory completion of a due diligence review of the property in addition to other customary conditions to closing. Accordingly, as of the date of this report, and until the closing of the purchase of the property, there can be no assurance that the Company will acquire the property. The Purchase and Sale Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by the seller.
The purchase price of the property is $4,848,738.  In connection with the Company's assumption of the Assignment and Assumption, the Company deposited $150,000 in escrow.  Such deposit will be credited towards the purchase price of the property and is refundable upon termination of the Purchase and Sale Agreement on or prior to the end of the due diligence period on November 28, 2011.  The Company intends to fund 100% of the purchase price of the property with proceeds from the sale of its common stock pursuant to its recently completed follow-on offering.
