Re: Engagement Letter for Duff
& Phelps’ Professional Services


 


Dear Mr. Block


 


This Letter of Engagement confirms
that we, Duff & Phelps, LLC (“D&P”), have been retained by you, American Realty Capital Global Daily Net Asset
Value Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) to provide the services (the “Services”) set out below in connection
with the valuation of real property (hereafter referred to as the “Subject Properties”) on a quarterly basis (the “Valuation
Dates”). Collectively, this arrangement is referenced to as our “Engagement.” The Subject Properties are future
acquisitions of net leased real estate located across the United States and Europe.




 


It is understood that the purpose
of the Services will be to estimate the “as is” market value of the leased fee interest of the real property. The intended
use by the Company for the valuation is to provide a basis for valuation of net asset value as described in the Company’s
registration statement on Form S-11, as amended from time to time (the “Registration Statement”). We understand that
the Services will be to estimate the Fair Market Value of the real estate properties in a newly created fund.


 


Valuation Approaches/Premises


 


We will utilize standard and
accepted appraisal methodology in arriving at our opinions of value. This would include the cost, sales comparison and income approaches
to value. All inquiries, visits to or contact with any persons or facilities of the Company regarding the Services shall be conducted
by D&P in a manner that will assure the confidentiality of the purpose of the Services to be provided. D&P recognizes and
agrees that maintaining the confidentiality of this project is of importance to Company.


 


It is likely that the most appropriate
approach to value the subject properties will be the Income Capitalization approach to value. The Income Capitalization approach
simulates the reasoning of an investor who views the cash flows that would result from the anticipated revenue and expense on a
property throughout its lifetime. The net income figure developed in our analysis is the balance of potential income remaining
after vacancy and collection allowances and operating expenses. This net income is then capitalized at an appropriate rate to derive
an estimate of value using the Direct Capitalization method or discounted in a Discounted Cash Flow methodology. We may use the
Sales Comparison and Cost Approach methodologies as appropriate as well.

Procedures


 


	 	•	We will complete a desktop valuation of a sampling (25 percent) of the owned property contained within the fund as of the end of each quarter (March 31, June 30, September 31, December 31) updating the values previously concluded upon for the assets which have been held since our previous valuation. We will rely upon the contractual rental stream provided for these assets on an individual or master lease level to provide our value conclusion.


 


	 	•	We will incorporate any additional assets which have been acquired since this time period into our overall analysis and will complete desktop valuations on these assets using the same methodology.


 


	 	•	We will provide a brief discussion of notable economic and market dynamics which have affected capitalization rates and will complete an analysis of current capitalization rates to be applied to the properties on an individual or master lease level for our Direct Capitalization or Discounted Cash Flow approach.


 


Form of Report and Timetable


 


At the conclusion of our analysis,
we will provide you with a narrative report (the “Report”) with supporting exhibits containing calculations leading
to our value conclusions. The report will be prepared in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics and Standards of Professional
Practice set for the by the Appraisal Institute and the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) as adopted
by the Appraisal Foundation.


 


We are ready to begin our work
immediately upon our receipt of this signed Engagement and upon receipt of information provided in conjunction with an agreed upon
timetable considering the various valuation dates. Once you have read the draft Report, we will issue our final Report bearing
the firm’s signature.


 


We will work with the Company
to arrive at a workable timetable for delivery of the valuation conclusions and quarterly Report.


 


Staffing and Fees


 


Ross Prindle, CRE, MAI will
be the Managing Director in charge of the Services on behalf of D&P. Ross is the Managing Director in charge of the global
Real Estate Services Group at Duff & Phelps. Ross will call upon additional experienced staff when required.


 


Our fees for the Services
to be provided reflect the complexity of the Engagement, the time scale for its completion, the caliber of staff engaged, and the
value of the Services provided. Our estimated fees will depend on the product type but will generally be in the range of $1,500
to $7,500 for the first time with annual update fees being approximately 75 percent (75%) of the initial fee for the first appraisal.
This fee range is intended to serve as a guide as the actual properties have not been acquired as of the writing of this engagement
letter. These fees do not include valuation of debt, contingent consideration or partial interest valuations. These are also associated
with single tenant assets only. These fees consider the valuation of these assets on a desktop basis and assume that information
on the properties themselves will be provided by the Company that will be sufficient enough to complete the desktop valuations.



    	 



    	 



    

 


Expenses are not included
in the fees and any expenses associated with necessary property inspections and/or meetings with the Company will be billed in
addition to these fees,

We assume no responsibility and make no representations as to the accuracy and completeness of such provided information. In addition, we will not independently verify any information that we obtain from public or other sources. There will usually be differences between estimated and actual results because events and circumstances frequently do not occur as expected, and those differences may be material. You acknowledge that no reliance shall be placed on draft Reports, conclusions or advice, whether oral or written, issued by us since the same may be subject to further work, revision and other factors which may mean that such drafts are substantially different from any final Report or advice issued.

When Duff & Phelps gives such consent, it is subject to the prior approval of Duff & Phelps of such disclosure. Further, you shall not provide such Report to any third party without the third party first executing a standard Duff & Phelps Release Letter.
