(&#8220;we,&#8221; &#8220;our&#8221; or &#8220;us&#8221;) announced the following:</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Acquisitions</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;">From January 1, 2015 through March 31, 2015, we acquired 53 properties for a gross acquisition cost of approximately $265.3 million in 32 real estate transactions with an initial cash yield of approximately 7.68% and a weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 17.2 years (based on base rent payable under the lease). We calculate initial cash yield from our acquired properties by dividing the annualized first month of base rent payable under the lease (excluding any future rent escalations provided for in the lease) by the gross acquisition cost of the properties. Gross acquisition cost for an acquired property includes the contracted purchase price and any related capitalized costs. Because it excludes any future rent increases or additional rent that may be contractually provided for in the lease, as well as any other income or fees that may be earned from lease modifications or asset dispositions, initial cash yield does not represent the annualized investment rate of return of our acquired properties. Additionally, actual base rent earned from the properties acquired may differ from the annualized base rent used in calculating the initial cash yield based on other factors, including difficulties collecting anticipated rental revenues and unanticipated expenses at these properties that we cannot pass on to tenants, as well as the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">New Credit Facility</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;">On March 31, 2015, our operating partnership, Spirit Realty, L.P., entered into a new credit agreement, or the credit agreement, with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., as joint lead arrangers, and Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as syndication agent, and the lenders parties thereto.  The credit agreement provides us with a $600.0 million revolving credit facility through our operating partnership, which matures on March 31, 2019 (with a maturity extension option to March 31, 2020, subject to certain requirements), initially bears interest at LIBOR plus 170 basis points and replaces our operating partnership&#8217;s previous $400.0 million revolving credit facility. The credit agreement includes an accordion feature to increase the size of our operating partnership&#8217;s revolving credit facility to up to $1.0 billion, subject to satisfying certain requirements and obtaining lender commitments. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">ATM Activity</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;">From January 1, 2015 through March 31, 2015, we sold a total of 6,610,100 shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of approximately $79.8 million under our at-the-market equity distribution program.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:bold;">Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:justify;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10pt;">This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other federal securities laws.

OTHER EVENTS.
On April 8, 2015, Spirit Realty Capital, Inc. ("we," "our" or "us") announced the following:
Acquisitions
From January 1, 2015 through March 31, 2015, we acquired 53 properties for a gross acquisition cost of approximately $265.3 million in 32 real estate transactions with an initial cash yield of approximately 7.68% and a weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 17.2 years (based on base rent payable under the lease). We calculate initial cash yield from our acquired properties by dividing the annualized first month of base rent payable under the lease (excluding any future rent escalations provided for in the lease) by the gross acquisition cost of the properties. Gross acquisition cost for an acquired property includes the contracted purchase price and any related capitalized costs. Because it excludes any future rent increases or additional rent that may be contractually provided for in the lease, as well as any other income or fees that may be earned from lease modifications or asset dispositions, initial cash yield does not represent the annualized investment rate of return of our acquired properties. Additionally, actual base rent earned from the properties acquired may differ from the annualized base rent used in calculating the initial cash yield based on other factors, including difficulties collecting anticipated rental revenues and unanticipated expenses at these properties that we cannot pass on to tenants, as well as the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.
New Credit Facility
On March 31, 2015, our operating partnership, Spirit Realty, L.P., entered into a new credit agreement, or the credit agreement, with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., as joint lead arrangers, and Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as syndication agent, and the lenders parties thereto.  The credit agreement provides us with a $600.0 million revolving credit facility through our operating partnership, which matures on March 31, 2019 (with a maturity extension option to March 31, 2020, subject to certain requirements), initially bears interest at LIBOR plus 170 basis points and replaces our operating partnership's previous $400.0 million revolving credit facility. The credit agreement includes an accordion feature to increase the size of our operating partnership's revolving credit facility to up to $1.0 billion, subject to satisfying certain requirements and obtaining lender commitments.
ATM Activity
From January 1, 2015 through March 31, 2015, we sold a total of 6,610,100 shares of our common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of approximately $79.8 million under our at-the-market equity distribution program.
