or in money market funds meeting the conditions of paragraphs (c)(2), (c)(3), (c)(4) and (c)(5) of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined
by the Company; the Trustee may not invest in any other securities or assets, it being understood that the Trust Account will earn
no interest while account funds are uninvested awaiting the Company’s instructions hereunder;


 


(d)          Collect
and receive, when due, all interest or other income arising from the Property, which shall become part of the “Property,”
as such term is used herein;


 


(e)          Promptly
notify the Company of all communications received by the Trustee with respect to any Property requiring action by the Company;


 


(f)          Supply
any necessary information or documents as may be requested by the Company (or its authorized agents) in connection with the Company’s
preparation of the tax returns relating to assets held in the Trust Account;


 


(g)          Participate
in any plan or proceeding for protecting or enforcing any right or interest arising from the Property if, as and when instructed
by the Company to do so;


 


(h)          Render
to the Company monthly written statements of the activities of, and amounts in, the Trust Account reflecting all receipts and disbursements
of the Trust Account;


 


(i)          Commence
liquidation of the Trust Account only after and promptly after (x) receipt of, and only in accordance with, the terms of a letter
from the Company (“Termination Letter”) in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as either
Exhibit A or Exhibit B signed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or
Chairman of the board of directors (the “Board”) or other authorized officer of the Company, and complete
the liquidation of the Trust Account and distribute the Property in the Trust Account, including interest not previously released
to the Company to pay its franchise and income taxes (and, if applicable, less up to $100,000 of interest that may be released
to the Company to pay dissolution expenses), only as directed in the Termination Letter and the other documents referred to therein,
or (y) [_], 20161,
if a Termination Letter has not been received by the Trustee prior to such date, in which case the Trust Account shall be liquidated
in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Termination Letter attached as Exhibit B and the Property in the Trust
Account (less up to $100,000 of interest that may be released to the Company to pay dissolution expenses) shall be distributed
to the Public Stockholders of record as of such date; provided, however, that in the event the Trustee receives a
Termination Letter in a form substantially similar to Exhibit B hereto, or if the Trustee begins to liquidate the Property
because it has received no such Termination Letter by [_], 20162,
the Trustee shall keep the Trust Account open until twelve (12) months following the date the Property has been distributed to
the Public Stockholders;

as Exhibit C (a “Tax Payment Withdrawal Instruction”), withdraw from the Trust Account and distribute
to the Company the amount of interest earned on the Property requested by the Company to cover any income or franchise tax obligation
owed by the Company as a result of assets of the Company or interest or other income earned on the Property, which amount shall
be delivered directly to the Company by electronic funds transfer or other method of prompt payment, and the Company shall forward
such payment to the relevant taxing authority; provided, however, that to the extent there is not sufficient cash
in the Trust Account to pay such tax obligation, the Trustee shall liquidate such assets held in the Trust Account as shall be
designated by the Company in writing to make such distribution; provided, further, that if the tax to be paid is
a franchise tax, the written request by the Company to make such distribution shall be accompanied by a copy of the franchise tax
bill from the State of Delaware for the Company and a written statement from the principal financial officer of the Company setting
forth the actual amount payable. The written request of the Company referenced above shall constitute presumptive evidence that
the Company is entitled to said funds, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility to look beyond said request;


 


(k)          Not
make any withdrawals or distributions from the Trust Account other than pursuant to Section 1(i) or (j) above; and


 


(l)          Within
four (4) business days after the Underwriters exercise the over-allotment option (or any unexercised portion thereof) or such over-allotment
expires, provide the Company with a notice in writing of the total amount of the Deferred Discount, which shall in no event be
less than $10,500,000.

all instructions to the Trustee hereunder in writing, signed by the Company’s Chairman of the Board, President, Chief Executive
Officer or Chief Financial Officer. In addition, except with respect to its duties under Sections 1(i) and 1(j) hereof,
the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, any verbal or telephonic advice or instruction
which it, in good faith and with reasonable care, believes to be given by any one of the persons authorized above to give written
instructions, provided that the Company shall promptly confirm such instructions in writing;


 




    	3



    	 



    

 


(b)          Subject
to Section 4 hereof, hold the Trustee harmless and indemnify the Trustee from and against any and all expenses, including
reasonable counsel fees and disbursements, or losses suffered by the Trustee in connection with any action taken by it hereunder
and in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding brought against the Trustee involving any claim, or in connection with
any claim or demand, which in any way arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the services of the Trustee hereunder, or the
Property or any interest earned on the Property, except for expenses and losses resulting from the Trustee’s gross negligence,
fraud or willful misconduct. Promptly after the receipt by the Trustee of notice of demand or claim or the commencement of any
action, suit or proceeding, pursuant to which the Trustee intends to seek indemnification under this Section 2(b), it shall
notify the Company in writing of such claim (hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnified Claim”). The
Trustee shall have the right to conduct and manage the defense against such Indemnified Claim; provided that the Trustee
shall obtain the consent of the Company with respect to the selection of counsel, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
The Trustee may not agree to settle any Indemnified Claim without the prior written consent of the Company, which such consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company may participate in such action with its own counsel;


 


(c)          Pay
the Trustee the fees set forth on Schedule A hereto, including an initial acceptance fee, annual administration fee, and
transaction processing fee which fees shall be subject to modification by the parties from time to time. It is expressly understood
that the Property shall not be used to pay such fees unless and until it is distributed to the Company pursuant to Sections
1(i) through 1(j) hereof. The Company shall pay the Trustee the initial acceptance fee and the first monthly fee at
the consummation of the Offering. The Trustee shall refund to the Company the monthly fee (on a pro rata basis) with respect to
any period after the liquidation of the Trust Account. The Company shall not be responsible for any other fees or charges of the
Trustee except as set forth in this Section 2(c), Schedule A and as may be provided in Section 2(b) hereof;


 


(d)          In
connection with any vote of the Company’s stockholders regarding a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock
purchase, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Company and one or more businesses (the “Business
Combination”), provide to the Trustee an affidavit or certificate of the inspector of elections for the stockholder
meeting verifying the vote of such stockholders regarding such Business Combination;


 


(e)          Provide
Citigroup Global Markets Inc. with a copy of any Termination Letter(s) and/or any other correspondence that is sent to the Trustee
with respect to any proposed withdrawal from the Trust Account promptly after it issues the same; and


 


(f)          Instruct
the Trustee to make only those distributions that are permitted under this Agreement, and refrain from instructing the Trustee
to make any distributions that are not permitted under this Agreement.


 


3.          Limitations
of Liability. The Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability to:


 


(a)          Imply
obligations, perform duties, inquire or otherwise be subject to the provisions of any agreement
or document other than this agreement and that which is expressly set forth herein;


 




    	4



    	 



    

 


(b)          Take
any action with respect to the Property, other than as directed in Section 1 hereof, and the Trustee shall have no liability
to any party except for liability arising out of the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct;


 


(c)          Institute
any proceeding for the collection of any principal and income arising from, or institute, appear in or defend any proceeding of
any kind with respect to, any of the Property unless and until it shall have received instructions from the Company given as provided
herein to do so and the Company shall have advanced or guaranteed to it funds sufficient to pay any expenses incident thereto;


 


(d)          Refund
any depreciation in principal of any Property;


 


(e)          Assume
that the authority of any person designated by the Company to give instructions hereunder shall not be continuing unless provided
otherwise in such designation, or unless the Company shall have delivered a written revocation of such authority to the Trustee;


 


(f)          The
other parties hereto or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted,
in good faith and in the Trustee’s best judgment, except for the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct.
The Trustee may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice
of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Trustee, which counsel may be the Company’s counsel), statement, instrument,
report or other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also
as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained) which the Trustee believes, in good faith and with reasonable
care, to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Trustee shall not be bound by any notice
or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement or any of the terms hereof, unless evidenced
by a written instrument delivered to the Trustee, signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Trustee
are affected, unless it shall give its prior written consent thereto;


 


(g)          Verify

execute and file tax reports, income or other tax returns and pay any taxes with respect to any income generated by, and activities
relating to, the Trust Account, regardless of whether such tax is payable by the Trust Account or the Company, including, but not
limited to, income tax obligations, except pursuant to Section 1(j) hereof; or


 




    	5



    	 



    

 


(k)          Verify
calculations, qualify or otherwise approve the Company’s written requests for distributions pursuant to Sections 1(i)
and 1(j) hereof.


 


4.          Trust
Account Waiver. The Trustee has no right of set-off or any right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”)
to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account, and hereby irrevocably waives any Claim to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account
that it may have now or in the future. In the event the Trustee has any Claim against the Company under this Agreement, including,
without limitation, under Section 2(b) or Section 2(c) hereof, the Trustee shall pursue such Claim solely against
the Company and its assets outside the Trust Account and not against the Property or any monies in the Trust Account.


 


5.          Termination.
This Agreement shall terminate as follows:


 


(a)          If
the Trustee gives written notice to the Company that it desires to resign under this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable
efforts to locate a successor trustee, pending which the Trustee shall continue to act in accordance with this Agreement. At such
time that the Company notifies the Trustee that a successor trustee has been appointed and has agreed to become subject to the
terms of this Agreement, the Trustee shall transfer the management of the Trust Account to the successor trustee, including but
not limited to the transfer of copies of the reports and statements relating to the Trust Account, whereupon this Agreement shall
terminate; provided, however, that in the event that the Company does not locate a successor trustee within ninety
(90) days of receipt of the resignation notice from the Trustee, the Trustee may submit an application to have the Property deposited
with any court in the State of New York or with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and upon
such deposit, the Trustee shall be immune from any liability whatsoever; or


 


(b)          At
such time that the Trustee has completed the liquidation of the Trust Account and its obligations in accordance with the provisions
of Section 1(i) hereof (which section may not be amended under any circumstances) and distributed the Property in accordance
with the provisions of the Termination Letter, this Agreement shall terminate except with respect to Section 2(b).


 


6.          Miscellaneous.


 


(a)          The
Company and the Trustee each acknowledge that the Trustee will follow the security procedures set forth below with respect to funds
transferred from the Trust Account. The Company and the Trustee will each restrict access to confidential information relating
to such security procedures to authorized persons. Each party must notify the other party immediately if it has reason to believe
unauthorized persons may have obtained access to such confidential information, or of any change in its authorized personnel. In
executing funds transfers, the Trustee shall rely upon all information supplied to it by the Company, including, account names,
account numbers, and all other identifying information relating to a Beneficiary, Beneficiary’s bank or intermediary bank.
Except for any liability arising out of the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct, the Trustee shall not
be liable for any loss, liability or expense resulting from any error in the information or transmission of the funds.


 




    	6



    	 



    

 


(b)          This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving
effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. This
Agreement may be executed in several original or facsimile counterparts, each one of which shall constitute an original, and together
shall constitute but one instrument.


 


(c)          This
Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except
for Section 1(i) hereof (which section may not be amended under any circumstances), this Agreement or any provision hereof
may only be changed, amended or modified (other than to correct a typographical error) by a writing signed by each of the parties
hereto.


 


(d)          This
Agreement or any provision hereof may only be changed, amended or modified pursuant to Section 6(c) hereof with the Consent
of the Stockholders; provided, however, that no such change, amendment or modification may be made to Section
1(i) hereof (which section may not be amended under any circumstances), it being the specific intention of the parties hereto
that each of the Company’s stockholders is, and shall be, a third party beneficiary of this Section 6(d) with the
same right and power to enforce this Section 6(d) as the other parties hereto. For purposes of this Section 6(d),
the “Consent of the Stockholders” means receipt by the Trustee of a certificate from the inspector of
elections of the stockholder meeting certifying that either (i) the Company’s stockholders of record as of a record date
established in accordance with Section 213(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (“DGCL”),
who hold sixty-five percent (65%) or more of all then outstanding shares of the Common Stock, have voted in favor of such change,
amendment or modification, or (ii) the Company’s stockholders of record as of the record date who hold sixty-five percent
(65%) or more of all then outstanding shares of the Common Stock, have delivered to such entity a signed writing approving such
change, amendment or modification. Except for any liability arising out of the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful
misconduct, the Trustee may rely conclusively on the certification from the inspector of elections referenced above and shall be
relieved of all liability to any party for executing the proposes amendment in reliance thereon.


 


(e)          The
parties hereto consent to the jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court located in the City of New York, State of New
York, for purposes of resolving any disputes hereunder. AS TO ANY CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.


 


(f)          Any
notice, consent or request to be given in connection with any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing
and shall be sent by express mail or similar private courier service, by certified mail (return receipt requested), by hand delivery

Re:     Trust Account
No.       Termination Letter


 


Gentlemen:


 


Pursuant to Section
1(i) of the Investment Management Trust Agreement between AR Capital Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”)
and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trustee”), dated as of [_], 2014 (the “Trust
Agreement”), this is to advise you that the Company has entered into an agreement with ___________ (the “Target
Business”) to consummate a business combination with Target Business (the “Business Combination”)
on or about [insert date]. The Company shall notify you at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance of the actual date of
the consummation of the Business Combination (the “Consummation Date”). Capitalized terms
used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Trust Agreement.


 


In accordance with
the terms of the Trust Agreement, we hereby authorize you to commence to liquidate all of the assets of the Trust Account on [insert
date], and to transfer the proceeds into the trust checking account at JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. to the effect that, on
the Consummation Date, all of funds held in the Trust Account will be immediately available for transfer to the account or accounts
that the Company shall direct on the Consummation Date. It is acknowledged and agreed that while the funds are on deposit in the
trust checking account at JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. awaiting distribution, the Company will not earn any interest or dividends.


 


On the Consummation
Date (i) counsel for the Company shall deliver to you written notification that the Business Combination has been consummated,
or will be consummated concurrently with your transfer of funds to the accounts as directed by the Company (the “Notification”)
and (ii) the Company shall deliver to you (a) [an affidavit] [a certificate] of the Chief Executive Officer, which verifies that
the Business Combination has been approved by a vote of the Company’s stockholders, if a vote is held and (b) joint written
instruction signed by the Company and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. with respect to the transfer of the funds held in the Trust
Account, including payment of the Deferred Discount from the Trust Account (the “Instruction Letter”).
You are hereby directed and authorized to transfer the funds held in the Trust Account immediately upon your receipt of the Notification
and the Instruction Letter, in accordance with the terms of the Instruction Letter. In the event that certain deposits held in
the Trust Account may not be liquidated by the Consummation Date without penalty, you will notify the Company in writing of the
same and the Company shall direct you as to whether such funds should remain in the Trust Account and be distributed after the
Consummation Date to the Company. Upon the distribution of all the funds, net of any payments necessary for reasonable unreimbursed
expenses related to liquidating the Trust Account, your obligations under the Trust Agreement shall be terminated.


 




    	 



    	 



    

 


In the event that the
Business Combination is not consummated on the Consummation Date described in the notice thereof and we have not notified you on
or before the original Consummation Date of a new Consummation Date, then upon receipt by the Trustee of written instructions from
the Company, the funds held in the Trust Account shall be reinvested as provided in Section 1(c) of the Trust Agreement
on the business day immediately following the Consummation Date as set forth in the notice as soon thereafter as possible.
