 ANNEX A 

Pursuant to Sections 2.01 and 2.02 of the Indenture, dated as of February 6, 2014 (the “Base Indenture”), among VEREIT
Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Issuer”) (f/k/a ARC Properties Operating Partnership, L.P.), VEREIT, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“Parent”) (f/k/a American Realty
Capital Properties, Inc.), as a guarantor, U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”) and the other parties thereto, the terms of the Notes to be issued pursuant to the Base Indenture are as set forth below.
The Base Indenture together with, and as amended and supplemented by, the Officer’s Certificate (the “Series Officer’s Certificate”), dated as of June 2, 2016, establishing the terms of the Notes and of which this
Annex A forms a part, is referred to herein as the “Indenture”. Certain defined terms are set forth in paragraph 18(k) hereof. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Series Officer’s Certificate shall have the
respective meanings assigned to them in the Base Indenture. 
 1. Designation. Two series of Securities are hereby established
under the Base Indenture and shall be known and designated as the “4.125% Senior Notes due 2021” and the “4.875% Senior Notes due 2026”. 

2. Initial Aggregate Principal Amount. The Notes shall be limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $400,000,000
with respect to the 2021 Notes and $600,000,000 with respect to the 2026 Notes, in each case except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes of such series pursuant to
Sections 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 3.03 and 9.04 of the Indenture and the Offer to Repurchase upon Change of Control and Ratings Decline provision of the Notes. 

3. Maturity. The date on which the principal of the 2021 Notes is payable is June 1, 2021 and the date on which the principal of
the 2026 Notes is payable is June 1, 2026 (in each case, the “Stated Maturity Date” of each such series). 
 4.
Rate of Interest; Interest Payment Date; Regular Record Dates. The 2021 Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 4.125% per annum and the 2026 Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 4.875% per annum, in each case until the principal
thereof is paid. Such interest shall be payable semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on December 1, 2016, to the Persons in whose names the
Notes are registered at the close of business on the immediately preceding May 15 or November 15 (each, a “record date”), as the case may be. Interest on the Notes shall accrue from and including the immediately
preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly made available for payment (or from and including the date of issue, if no interest has been paid or duly made available for payment with respect to the Notes) to,
but excluding the applicable Interest Payment Date, the Stated Maturity Date or date of earlier redemption (the Stated Maturity Date or date of earlier redemption referred to collectively herein as the “Maturity Date”), as
the case may be. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required payment of
principal, premium, if any, and/or interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on such payment for the period from and after such Interest
Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be, to the date of such payment on the next succeeding Business Day. 
 5. Place of
Payment. Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be payable, at the office of the Issuer’s paying agent maintained at the Corporate Trust Office. Payment of principal of, or premium, if any, on a
definitive Note may be made only against surrender of the Note to the Issuer’s paying agent. The Issuer may make interest payments (1) by wire transfer of 

  
 A-1 

 
funds to the person at an account maintained within the United States, or (2) if no wire transfer is provided, the Issuer may make interest payments by check mailed to the address of the person
entitled to the payment as that address appears in the applicable register for those Notes. However, while any Notes are represented by a registered Global Security, payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Notes may be made
by wire transfer to the account of the Depositary or its nominee. 
 6. Offer to Repurchase upon Change of Control and Rating
Decline. Each series of Notes requires the Issuer to make an offer to repurchase upon a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined in Exhibits A-1 and A-2) as set forth in Exhibits A-1 and A-2 hereto, as applicable. 

7. Optional Redemption. The Issuer may redeem all or part of any series of Notes at any time at its option as set forth the
in the form of Note applicable to such series of Notes as set forth in Exhibits A-1 and A-2 hereto, as applicable, and in Article III of the Indenture. 

8. No Sinking Fund. The Notes of each series are not mandatorily redeemable except as set forth in paragraph
6 above and in the form of Note applicable to such series of Notes and are not entitled to the benefit of a sinking fund or any analogous provisions. 

9. Ranking Security. The Notes of each series are unsecured obligations of the Issuer and rank equally with other unsecured
indebtedness of the Issuer that is not subordinated to such series of Notes. 
 10. Issue Price; Amount Payable Upon
Acceleration. The 2021 Notes will be issued at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof and the 2026 Notes will be issued at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof. 100% of the principal of and accrued
interest, if any, on each series of Notes shall be payable upon declaration of acceleration pursuant to Section 6.01 of the Indenture. 

11. Payment Currency—Election. The principal of, premium, if any, and interest on each series of Notes shall not be
payable in a currency other than Dollars. 
 12. Payment Currency—Index. The principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on each series of Notes shall not be determined with reference to an index based on a coin or currency. 
 13. Registered
Securities. Each series of Notes shall be issued only as registered Securities. Each series of Notes shall be issuable as registered Global Securities in book-entry form. 

14. Additional Amounts. The Issuer shall not pay additional amounts on any series of Notes held by a Person that is not a
U.S. Person in respect of taxes or similar charges withheld or deducted. 
 15. Notes in Definitive Form. Section 2.05 of
the Indenture will govern the transferability of the Notes in definitive form. 
 16. Registrar; Paying Agent;
Depositary. The Trustee shall initially serve as the registrar and the paying agent for each series of Notes. The Depository Trust Company shall initially serve as the Depositary for the registered Global Security representing each
series of Notes. 
 17. Events of Default. There shall be no deletions from, modifications or additions to the Events of
Default set forth in Section 6.01 of the Base Indenture with respect to either series of Notes, except, with respect to the 2021 Notes and the 2026 Notes, the text of Section 6.01(a)(5) of the Base Indenture shall be deemed deleted in its entirety
and replaced with the following: “default by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries under any mortgage, bond, debenture, note or other instrument under which there 

  
 A-2 

 
is outstanding, or by which there is secured or evidenced, any Debt for money borrowed by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries (not including any Debt for which recourse is limited to property
purchased or for which recourse may be increased beyond property purchased pursuant to violations of customary non-recourse carveouts unless any such carveout is judicially determined to have been triggered and then only to the extent of such
determination) in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $50.0 million at any one time, whether the Debt exists at the date of the Indenture or shall thereafter be created, which default shall have resulted in the Debt becoming or being declared
due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise have become due and payable or which default shall have resulted in the obligation being accelerated, without the acceleration having been rescinded or annulled or the Debt having been
Discharged.” 
 In addition, with respect to the 2021 Notes and the 2026 Notes only, each reference to “this Indenture” in
Section 6.04 of the Base Indenture shall also be deemed to include the 2021 Notes or the 2026 Notes, as applicable, and this Officer’s Certificate. 

In addition, with respect to the 2021 Notes and the 2026 Notes only, the following language included in Section 7.02 of the Base Indenture:
“If a Default occurs hereunder with respect to Securities of any series and is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall give the holders of Securities of such series notice of such Default as and to the extent provided
by the Trust Indenture Act;” shall be replaced in its entirety with: “If a Default occurs hereunder with respect to the 2021 Notes or the 2026 Notes and is known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall give the Holders
of the 2021 Notes or the 2026 Notes, as the case may be, notice of such Default within the earlier of (a) 90 days and (b) as and to the extent provided by the Trust Indenture Act;”. 

18. Covenants. There shall be the following additions, replacements, amendments and supplements, as the case may be, to the
covenants of the Issuer set forth in Article IV of the Base Indenture solely with respect to each series of Notes: 
 (a)
Limitation on Incurrence of Total Debt. This paragraph (a) will be an addition to Article IV of the Base Indenture with respect to each series of Notes. Parent will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt (including,
without limitation, Acquired Debt) if, immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of such additional Debt and the application of the proceeds therefrom on a pro forma basis, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Debt of Parent and
its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined in accordance with GAAP is greater than 65% of the sum of (1) the Total Assets of Parent and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the latest fiscal quarter covered in Parent’s Annual Report on
Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently filed with the Commission (or, if such filing is not required under the Exchange Act, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Debt, and (2) the
aggregate purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired, and the aggregate amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire real estate assets or mortgages
receivable or used to reduce Debt), in each case by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries since the end of such fiscal quarter, including the proceeds obtained from the incurrence of such additional Debt. 

(b) Limitation on Incurrence of Secured Debt. This paragraph (b) will be an addition to Article IV of the
Base Indenture with respect to each series of Notes. Parent will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Secured Debt (including, without limitation, Acquired Debt that is secured by a Lien) if, immediately after giving effect to the
incurrence of such Secured Debt and the application of the proceeds therefrom on a pro forma basis, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Secured Debt of Parent and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis determined in accordance with
GAAP is greater than 40% of the sum of (1) the Total Assets 

  
 A-3 

 
of Parent and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the latest fiscal quarter covered in Parent’s Annual Report on Form 10-K or Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as the case may be, most recently
filed with the Commission (or, if such filing is not required under the Exchange Act, with the Trustee) prior to the incurrence of such additional Debt, and (2) the aggregate purchase price of any real estate assets or mortgages receivable acquired,
and the aggregate amount of any securities offering proceeds received (to the extent such proceeds were not used to acquire real estate assets or mortgages receivable or used to reduce Debt), in each case by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries since
the end of such fiscal quarter, including the proceeds obtained from the incurrence of such additional Debt. 
 (c)
Debt Service Coverage. This paragraph (c) will be an addition to Article IV of the Base Indenture with respect to each series of Notes. Parent will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to, incur any Debt (including,
without limitation, Acquired Debt), if the ratio of Consolidated Income Available for Debt Service to the Annual Debt Service Charge for the period consisting of the four consecutive fiscal quarters most recently ended prior to the date on which
such additional Debt is to be incurred is less than 1.5 to 1.0, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of such Debt and the application of the proceeds therefrom, and calculated on the following assumptions: (1) such Debt
and any other Debt (including, without limitation, Acquired Debt) incurred by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period and the application of the proceeds therefrom (including to refinance other Debt since
the first day of such four-quarter period) had occurred on the first day of such period, (2) the repayment or retirement of any other Debt of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries since the first day of such four-quarter period had occurred on the first
day of such period (except that, in making such computation, the amount of Debt under any revolving credit facility, line of credit or similar facility shall be computed based upon the average daily balance of such Debt during such period), and (3)
in the case of any acquisition or disposition by Parent or any Subsidiary of any asset or group of assets since the first day of such four-quarter period, including, without limitation, by merger, stock purchase or sale, or asset purchase or sale,
such acquisition or disposition had occurred on the first day of such period with the appropriate adjustments with respect to such acquisition or disposition being included in such pro forma calculation. If the Debt giving rise to the need to
make the foregoing calculation or any other Debt incurred after the first day of the relevant four-quarter period bears interest at a floating rate then, for purposes of calculating the Annual Debt Service Charge, the interest rate on such Debt
shall be computed on a pro forma basis by applying the average daily rate which would have been in effect during the entire such four-quarter period to the greater of the amount of such Debt outstanding at the end of such period or the average
amount of such Debt outstanding during such period. 
 (d) Maintenance of Total Unencumbered Assets. This
paragraph (d) will be an addition to Article IV of the Base Indenture with respect to each series of Notes. Parent and its Subsidiaries will not have at any time Total Unencumbered Assets of less than 150% of the aggregate principal amount of all of
the outstanding Unsecured Debt of Parent and its Subsidiaries determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP. 

(e) Provision of Financial Information. This paragraph (e) shall supplement Section 5.03 of the Base
Indenture. 
 (1) Whether or not the Issuer is subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and for so long as any
Notes are Outstanding, the Issuer will furnish to the Trustee (1) all quarterly and annual reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if the Issuer were required to file such reports and (2) all current
reports that would be required to be filed with the Commission on Form 8-K 

  
 A-4 

 
if the Issuer were required to file such reports, in each case within 15 days after the Issuer files such reports with the Commission or would be required to file such reports with the Commission
(for the avoidance of doubt, giving effect to any grace period provided by Rule 12b-25 under the Exchange Act) pursuant to the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission, whichever is earlier (in each case, excluding, for the avoidance of
doubt, any such documents or reports (or portions thereof) that are subject to confidential treatment and any correspondence with the Commission). Reports, information and documents filed with the Commission via the EDGAR system will be deemed to be
delivered to the Trustee as of the time of such filing via EDGAR for purposes of this covenant; provided, that the Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to determine whether or not such information, documents or reports have been filed via
EDGAR. Delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from
information contained therein. 
 (2) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the rules and regulations of the
Commission (including Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X) permit the Issuer and Parent to report at Parent entity’s level on a consolidated basis, and Parent entity is not engaged in any business in any material respect, other than incidental to its
ownership, directly or indirectly of the capital stock of the Issuer, then the information and reports required by this covenant may be those of Parent on a consolidated basis, rather than those of the Issuer. 

(f) Future Subsidiary Guarantors. This paragraph (f) will be an addition to Article IV of the Base Indenture with
respect to each series of Notes. Parent shall cause each of its Subsidiaries that (a) owns, directly or indirectly, any Equity Interests issued by the Issuer, or (b) guarantees other Debt of the Issuer or any Guarantor to execute and deliver to the
Trustee an officer’s certificate pursuant to which such Subsidiary will unconditionally guarantee, on a joint and several basis, the due and punctual payment of principal of and interest on the Notes, when and as the same become due and
payable, whether on the maturity date, by declaration of acceleration, an offer to repurchase upon a Change of Control Triggering Event, upon redemption, repurchase or otherwise, and all of the Issuer’s other obligations under the Indenture, as
provided in Article XIII of the Indenture. 
 (g) Maintenance of Properties. This paragraph (g) shall
replace Section 4.06 of the Base Indenture with respect to each series of Notes. 
 Each of Parent and the Issuer shall cause
its material properties used or useful in the conduct of its business or the business of any Subsidiary of Parent to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order, normal wear and tear, casualty and condemnation excepted, and
supplied with all necessary equipment and will require it to cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements to those properties, as in its judgment may be necessary so that the business carried on in
connection with those properties may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times; provided, that Parent and its Subsidiaries shall not be prevented from (1) removing permanently any property that has been condemned or suffered casualty
loss, (2) discontinuing any maintenance or operation of any property if, in the Parent’s reasonable judgment, such removal is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes or (3) selling or otherwise disposing of these
properties for value in the ordinary course of business. 

  
 A-5 

 (h) Payment of Taxes and Other Claims. This paragraph (h)
shall replace Section 4.08 of the Base Indenture with respect to each series of Notes. Parent shall pay or discharge (or, if applicable, cause to be transferred to bond or other security) or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall
become delinquent, all material taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed on each of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries or upon the income, profits or property of each of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, that Parent
shall not be required to pay or discharge (or transfer to bond or other security) or cause to be paid or discharged any material tax, assessment or charge, (a) the applicability or validity of which it is contesting in good faith through appropriate
proceedings and for which it has established adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP or (b) where the failure to effect such payment is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes. 

(i) Supplemental Indentures Without the Consent of Securityholders. With respect to each series of Notes, Section
9.01 of the Base Indenture is replaced with the following: 
 In addition to any supplemental indenture otherwise authorized by this
Indenture, the Issuer and the Trustee may from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto (which shall conform to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect), without the consent of the
Securityholders of such series, for one or more of the following purposes: 
 (1) to cure any ambiguity or to correct any
defect or inconsistency in the Indenture or in the Securities of any series, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Indenture which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture;
provided, however, that such action shall not adversely affect the interests of Holders of any series of Securities in any material respect; 

(2) to evidence the succession of another Person to the obligations of the Issuer or any Guarantor to the extent such
succession is permitted by Article X; 
 (3) to add to the covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions relating to the
Issuer or the Guarantors for the benefit of the holders of all or any series of Securities (and if such covenants, restrictions, conditions or provisions are to be for the benefit of less than all series of Securities, stating that such covenants,
restrictions, conditions or provisions are expressly being included solely for the benefit of such series), to add Events of Default for the benefit of the Holders of all or any series of Securities, or to surrender any right or power herein
conferred upon the Issuer; 
 (4) to make any change or eliminate any provision in the Indenture; provided that any
such change or elimination does not apply to any Outstanding Securities of a series that are entitled to the benefit of such provision; 

(5) to secure the Securities of all or any series of Securities or add a Guarantor; 

(6) to evidence the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to the terms of the Indenture; 

(7) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment under the Indenture by a successor Trustee with respect to the
Securities of one or more series and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts under the Indenture by more than one Trustee, pursuant to the
requirements of Section 7.12; 

  
 A-6 

 (8) to supplement any of the provisions of the Indenture to the extent necessary
to permit or facilitate defeasance, covenant defeasance and discharge of Securities of any series; provided, however, that this action shall not adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Securities of any such series in any
material respect; 
 (9) to comply with any requirements of the Commission or any successor in connection with the
qualification of this Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act; 
 (10) to provide for the issuance of additional Securities
of any series in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and the Securities of such series; or 
 (11) to conform the text
of this Indenture or the Notes to any provision of the “Description of Notes” section of the Prospectus Supplement of the Issuer and Parent dated May 18, 2016 as set forth in an Officer’s Certificate. 

The Trustee is hereby authorized to join with the Issuer in the execution of any such supplemental indenture, and to make any further
appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained, but the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or
otherwise. 
 Any supplemental indenture authorized by the provisions of this Section may be executed by the Issuer and the Trustee without
the consent of the holders of any of the Securities at the time Outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 9.02. 

(j) Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Securityholders. Section 9.02(4) of the Base Indenture is replaced
with the following: “except as contemplated by the provisions of Article X, release Parent from its guarantee of the Securities”.

in the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and shall expressly assume, by a supplemental indenture, all the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor, if any, under the Notes or its Guarantee, as applicable; provided, that
the foregoing requirement shall not apply in the case of a Subsidiary Guarantor (x) that has been disposed of in its entirety to another Person (other than to Parent or an affiliate of Parent), whether through a merger, consolidation or sale of
capital stock or has sold, leased or converted all or substantially all of its assets or (y) that, as a result of the disposition of all or a portion of its capital stock, ceases to be a Subsidiary; 

(2) immediately after giving effect on a pro forma basis to the transaction (including the incurrence of any Debt in connection therewith), no
Event of Default under the Indenture, and no event which, after notice or the lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default (such definition as amended by paragraph 17 of this Annex A), shall have occurred and be continuing; and

 VEREIT OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P., a limited partnership duly organized and existing under the laws of the
State of Delaware (hereinafter referred to as “Issuer,” which term includes any successor thereof under the Indenture (as defined on the reverse hereof)), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or its
registered assigns, the principal sum of [        ] ($[        ]) on June 1, 2021 (the “Stated Maturity Date” with respect to the principal of
this Note), unless previously redeemed on any Redemption Date (as defined below) in accordance with the provisions set forth on the reverse hereof or repurchased on any Change of Control Payment Date (as defined below) in accordance with the
provisions set forth on the reverse hereof (the Stated Maturity Date, any Redemption Date or Change of Control Payment Date is referred herein as the “Maturity Date” with respect to principal repayable or repurchased on such
date) and to pay interest thereon semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on December 1, 2016, at the rate of 4.125% per annum, until payment of
said principal has been made or duly provided for. Interest on this Note payable on an Interest Payment Date will accrue from and including the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly made available for
payment, or from and including June 2, 2016 if no interest has been paid or duly made available for payment, to but excluding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. Interest on this Note will be computed on
the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 
 Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the
respective meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 The interest so payable and punctually paid or duly made available for payment on
any Interest Payment Date will be paid to the Holder in which name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered in the Security register at the close of business on the “Regular Record Date” for such payment,
which shall be the May 15 or November 15, as the case may be, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (regardless of whether such day is a Business Day (as defined below)). Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly made
available for payment shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date, and shall be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on a subsequent
“Special Record Date” for the payment of such defaulted interest (which shall be not more than 5 Business Days prior to the date of the payment of such defaulted interest) established by notice given by mail by or on behalf
of the Issuer to the Holders of the Notes not less than 15 calendar days preceding such subsequent Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. 

The principal of, and premium, if any, with respect to, this Note payable on the Maturity Date will be paid against presentation and surrender
of this Note at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or other office or agency of the Issuer maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. The Issuer hereby initially designates the Corporate Trust Office
of the Trustee (as defined on the reverse hereof) as the office to be maintained by it where Notes may be presented for payment, registration of transfer or exchange and where notices or demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the Notes or the
Indenture may be served. 
 If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment
required to be made on such date will, instead, be made on the next Business Day with the same 

  
 Exh. A-1-2 

 
force and effect as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the
Maturity Date, as the case may be. “Business Day” means any day, other than a day on which Federal or State banking institutions in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or in the city in which the Corporate Trust
Office is located, are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close. 
 Payments of principal, premium, if any,
and interest in respect of this Note will be made in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts (i) in the case of payments on the Maturity Date, in
immediately available funds, and (ii) in the case of payments of interest on an Interest Payment Date other than the Maturity Date, (a) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located in the
United States of America, or (b) if no wire transfer is provided, by check mailed to the Holder entitled thereto at the applicable address appearing in the Security Register; provided, however, that so long as Cede & Co. is the Holder of this
Note, payments of interest on an Interest Payment Date may be made in immediately available funds. 
 Reference is made to the further
provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof. Such further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place. 

This Note shall not be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture or the Guarantee or be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the
certificate of authentication hereon shall have been executed by manual signature by the Trustee.

 [FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE] 

VEREIT OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. 

4.125% Senior Notes due 2021 

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Issuer (hereinafter called the “Securities”) of the
series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of February 6, 2014, duly executed and delivered by the Issuer (f/k/a ARC Properties Operating
Partnership, L.P.), VEREIT, Inc. (f/k/a American Realty Capital Properties, Inc.) (“Parent”), and certain other parties named therein to U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee,” which
term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect to the series of Securities of which this Note is a part), together with the Officer’s Certificate amending and supplementing the Base Indenture and establishing the terms of
the Notes and another series of Securities designated as the 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026, dated as of June 2, 2016 (collectively with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) and reference is hereby made to the Indenture, and
all modifications and amendments and indentures supplemental thereto relating to the Notes, made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties, and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Issuer, the Guarantor(s) and
the Holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of a series of Securities designated as the 4.125% Senior Notes due 2021 (collectively, the “Notes”) of the Issuer,
limited (except as permitted under the Indenture) in aggregate principal amount to $400,000,000. 
 Payments of principal, premium, if any,
and interest in respect of the Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantor(s). 
 Offer to Repurchase upon Change
of Control and Ratings Decline. If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs with respect to the Notes, each Holder of such Notes shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple
of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to an offer by the Issuer (a “Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth below, except to the extent the Issuer has delivered a notice of redemption to
the Holders of such Notes as described under the heading “Optional Redemption” below that is irrevocable (except to the extent conditioned on the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event). In the Change of Control Offer, the
Issuer shall offer a payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased, to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).
Within 30 days following the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer shall mail a notice to each Holder of Notes describing the transaction or transactions that constitute, or are expected to constitute, the Change of Control
Triggering Event, and offering to repurchase Notes on the date (the “Change of Control Payment Date”) specified in the notice and stating: (1) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to the Offer to Repurchase
upon Change of Control and Ratings Decline provision of the Notes and that all Notes tendered into the Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment; (2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 30 days and no
later than 60 days after the date such notice is mailed (or in the case of Global Securities, given pursuant to applicable DTC procedures); (3) that any Note not tendered and accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest; (4) that, unless
the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest on and after the Change of Control Payment Date; (5) that Holders electing to
have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender the Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Notes completed, to the Paying Agent at the address
specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; (6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw 

  
 Exh. A-1-5 

 
their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a facsimile transmission or letter
setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have the Notes purchased; and (7) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part
will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful: 

 

	 	(1)	accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; 

  

	 	(2)	deposit with the paying agent no later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Business Day immediately prior to the Change of Control Payment Date an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all
Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and 

  

	 	(3)	deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

 The Paying Agent shall promptly remit to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such
Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new
Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 The Issuer shall not be required to
make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture
applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in
advance of an anticipated Change of Control Triggering Event, conditional upon such Change of Control Triggering Event. 
 If Holders of not
less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes of this series validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuer
as described above, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice (provided that as of the
date of such notice not more than 30 days has passed since such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above), to redeem all Notes of this series that remain Outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101% of
the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including the date of redemption. 
 The Issuer shall comply with
the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes as a result of a Change of Control
Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control and Ratings Decline provision of the Notes, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and
regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control and Ratings Decline provision of the Notes by virtue of such conflict. 

  
 Exh. A-1-6

administrator of any such plan); provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, the lease of all or substantially all of the real estate assets of Parent, the Issuer or any of their respective subsidiaries to an operator pursuant to a real
estate lease or leases shall not constitute a Change of Control;

Directors at the beginning of such period or whose election as a member of such Board of Directors was previously so approved. 

  
 Exh. A-1-7 

 For purposes of this definition, (1) no Change of Control shall be deemed to have occurred solely
as a result of a transfer of assets among Parent, the Issuer and any of their respective Subsidiaries and (2) a Person shall not be deemed to have beneficial ownership of securities subject to a stock purchase agreement, merger agreement or similar
agreement until the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such agreement. 
 “Change of Control Triggering

the case may be. 
 “Rating Category” means (1) with respect to S&P, any of the following categories: BB,
B, CCC, CC, C and D (or equivalent successor categories); (2) with respect to Moody’s, any of the following categories: Ba, B, Caa, Ca, C and D (or equivalent successor categories); and (3) the equivalent of any such category of
S&P or Moody’s used by another Rating Agency, if any, selected by the Issuer. In determining whether the rating of the Notes has decreased by one or more gradations, gradations within Rating Categories ((1) + and - for S&P; (2) 1,
2 and 3 for Moody’s; and (3) the equivalent gradations for another Rating Agency selected by the Issuer) shall be taken into account (e.g., with respect to S&P, a decline in a rating from BB+ to BB, or from BB- to B+, will constitute a
decrease of one gradation). 
 “Rating Date” means the date which is the day immediately prior to the earlier of
(1) a Change of Control or (2) public notice of the occurrence of a Change of Control or of the intention by Parent or the Issuer to effect a Change of Control. 

“Rating Decline” shall be deemed to occur if, within 90 days after public notice of the occurrence of a Change of
Control (which period shall be extended so long as the rating of the Notes is under publicly 

  
 Exh. A-1-8 

 
announced consideration for possible downgrade by either of the Rating Agencies with respect to a Rating Category if such period exceeds 90 days), the rating of the Notes by each Rating Agency
shall be decreased by one or more gradations to or within a Rating Category (including gradations within Rating Categories as well as between Rating Categories) as compared to the rating of the Notes on the Rating Date immediately preceding such
Change of Control. 
 “S&P” means Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services and its successors. 

“Units” means the limited partnership units of the Issuer. 

“Voting Stock” of Parent as of any date means the Capital Stock of Parent that is at the time entitled to vote in the
election of the board of directors of Parent. 
 Optional Redemption. The Issuer may redeem all or part of the Notes at any time at
its option at a redemption price equal to the greater of: 
 (a) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,
and 
 (b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the Notes to be
redeemed that would be due if such Notes matured 30 days prior to the Stated Maturity Date (the “2021 Par Call Date”) but for the redemption thereof (exclusive of interest accrued to the applicable Redemption Date) discounted
to such Redemption Date on a semiannual basis, assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, 

plus, in the case of both clauses (a) and (b) above, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but excluding,
the date fixed for redemption (the “Redemption Date”); provided that if the Notes are redeemed on or after the 2021 Par Call Date, the redemption price will equal 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be
redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the amount being redeemed to, but excluding, the date of redemption. 
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, installments of interest on the Notes that are due and payable on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable to the persons who were the Holders of the Notes (or one or more predecessor Notes)
registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates as set forth above and in Article III of the Indenture. 

As used herein (and to the extent any such definitions conflict with definitions included in the Base Indenture, the definitions included here
shall control with respect to the Notes): 
 “Comparable Treasury Issue” means, the U.S. Treasury security selected
by the Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed calculated as if the Stated Maturity Date were the applicable 2021 Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”)
that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the Remaining Life of such Notes. 

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for the Notes: 

(a) if the Issuer obtains four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, the average of such Reference
Treasury Dealer Quotations, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or 

  
 Exh. A-1-9 

 (b) if the Issuer obtains fewer than four but more than one such Reference
Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or 
 (c)
if the Issuer obtains only one such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation for such Redemption Date, that Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation. 

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers that the Issuer has appointed to act as
the “Independent Investment Banker”. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealer” means with respect to any Redemption
Date for the Notes, each of (i) J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Barclays Capital Inc. and their respective successors (provided, however, that if any such firm or any such successor, as the case may be, ceases to be a primary U.S. Government
securities dealer in The City of New York (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Issuer shall substitute therefor another nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a Primary Treasury Dealer), and (ii) up to two other
Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Issuer. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to
each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date for the Notes, the average, as determined by the Issuer, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in
writing to the Issuer by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date. 

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for the Notes: 

(a) the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently
published statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury
securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the Remaining Life of the
Notes, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis, rounding to the
nearest month) or 
 (b) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the
calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its
principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date. 
 The Treasury Rate shall be calculated by the Issuer on
the third Business Day preceding the applicable Redemption Date, on which date the Issuer will provide the Trustee with a calculation of the applicable redemption price. 

Notice of Redemption. No Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part. Notices of redemption will be mailed (or in the case of
Global Securities, given pursuant to applicable procedures of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)) at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed at its registered
address, except that redemption notices may be mailed or given more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with 

  
 Exh. A-1-10 

 
a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the Notes. If less than all of the Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected, so long as
such Notes are in book-entry form, in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC, or, if such Notes are issued in definitive certificated form, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate. 

If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, (a) the Issuer shall give the Trustee five days’ notice (unless a shorter period is
satisfactory to the Trustee) in advance of the date of delivery of the notice of redemption to the Holders and (b) the notice of redemption that relates to that Note will state the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed.
A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note will be issued in the name of the Holder of Notes upon cancellation of the original Note. Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption
(subject to satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent). 
 Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and
after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions of them called for redemption. 
 This Note is not
mandatorily redeemable and is not entitled to the benefit of a sinking fund or any analogous provisions. 
 In case an Event of Default with
respect to this Note shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal hereof may be (and, in certain cases, shall be) declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect, and subject to the
conditions, provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the
modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and, if applicable, the Guarantors, and the rights of the Holders of the Securities under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and, if applicable, the Guarantors, and the Trustee with the
consent of the Holders of a majority in the aggregate principal amount of Securities of each series (voting as separate classes) issued under the Indenture at the time Outstanding and affected thereby. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture
permit the Holders of a majority in the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, in certain instances, to waive, on behalf of all of the Holders of Securities of such series, certain past defaults under the Indenture
and their consequences. Any such waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and other Notes issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof,
or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. 
 With respect to the Notes, Article XII of
the Indenture shall not be applicable to the Issuer, the Trustee or the Holders. 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of
this Note or the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, with respect to, and interest on, this Note in the manner, at the respective times, at
the rate and in the coin or currency herein prescribed. 
 The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance and discharge and for defeasance
at any time of certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to Notes of this series upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. 

This Note is issuable only in definitive registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in
excess thereof. This Note may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations at the office or agency of the Issuer in 

  
 Exh. A-1-11 

 
The City of New York, in the manner and subject to the limitations provided herein and in the Indenture, but without the payment of any charge except for any tax or other governmental charge
imposed in connection therewith. 
 The Issuer shall not pay additional amounts on this Note held by a Person that is not a U.S. Person in
respect of taxes or similar charges withheld or deducted. 
 The Issuer, the Guarantor(s) or the Trustee and any authorized agent of the
Issuer, the Guarantor(s) or the Trustee may deem and treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the Holder and absolute owner of this Note (whether or not this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or
other writing hereon), for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal of, or premium, if any, with respect to, or subject to the provisions on the face hereof, interest on, this Note and for all other purposes, and none of
the Issuer, the Guarantor(s) or the Trustee or any authorized agent of the Issuer, the Guarantor(s) or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 

THE INDENTURE AND THIS NOTE SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND FOR ALL PURPOSES SHALL BE GOVERNED
BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF SUCH STATE.

 VEREIT OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P., a limited partnership duly organized and existing under the laws of the
State of Delaware (hereinafter referred to as “Issuer,” which term includes any successor thereof under the Indenture (as defined on the reverse hereof)), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or its
registered assigns, the principal sum of [            ] ($[        ]) on June 1, 2026 (the “Stated Maturity Date” with
respect to the principal of this Note), unless previously redeemed on any Redemption Date (as defined below) in accordance with the provisions set forth on the reverse hereof or repurchased on any Change of Control Payment Date (as defined below) in
accordance with the provisions set forth on the reverse hereof (the Stated Maturity Date, any Redemption Date or Change of Control Payment Date is referred herein as the “Maturity Date” with respect to principal repayable or
repurchased on such date) and to pay interest thereon semiannually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on December 1, 2016, at the rate of 4.875% per
annum, until payment of said principal has been made or duly provided for. Interest on this Note payable on an Interest Payment Date will accrue from and including the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or
duly made available for payment, or from and including June 2, 2016 if no interest has been paid or duly made available for payment, to but excluding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. Interest on this
Note will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 
 Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined
herein shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 The interest so payable and punctually paid or duly made
available for payment on any Interest Payment Date will be paid to the Holder in which name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered in the Security register at the close of business on the “Regular Record
Date” for such payment, which shall be the May 15 or November 15, as the case may be, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (regardless of whether such day is a Business Day (as defined below)). Any such interest not so
punctually paid or duly made available for payment shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date, and shall be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close
of business on a subsequent “Special Record Date” for the payment of such defaulted interest (which shall be not more than 5 Business Days prior to the date of the payment of such defaulted interest) established by notice
given by mail by or on behalf of the Issuer to the Holders of the Notes not less than 15 calendar days preceding such subsequent Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

 The principal of, and premium, if any, with respect to, this Note payable on the Maturity Date will be paid against presentation and
surrender of this Note at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or other office or agency of the Issuer maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. The Issuer hereby initially designates the Corporate
Trust Office of the Trustee (as defined on the reverse hereof) as the office to be maintained by it where Notes may be presented for payment, registration of transfer or exchange and where notices or demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of the
Notes or the Indenture may be served. 

  
 Exh. A-2-2 

 If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the
payment required to be made on such date will, instead, be made on the next Business Day with the same force and effect as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from
and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. “Business Day” means any day, other than a day on which Federal or State banking institutions in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York,
or in the city in which the Corporate Trust Office is located, are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close. 

Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note will be made in such coin or currency of the United States of
America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts (i) in the case of payments on the Maturity Date, in immediately available funds, and (ii) in the case of payments of interest on an Interest Payment Date
other than the Maturity Date, (a) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located in the United States of America, or (b) if no wire transfer is provided, by check mailed to the Holder
entitled thereto at the applicable address appearing in the Security Register; provided, however, that so long as Cede & Co. is the Holder of this Note, payments of interest on an Interest Payment Date may be made in immediately available funds.

 Reference is made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof. Such further provisions shall for all
purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place. 
 This Note shall not be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture
or the Guarantee or be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been executed by manual signature by the Trustee.

 [FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE] 

VEREIT OPERATING PARTNERSHIP, L.P. 

4.875% Senior Notes due 2026 

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Issuer (hereinafter called the “Securities”) of the
series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of February 6, 2014, duly executed and delivered by the Issuer (f/k/a ARC Properties Operating
Partnership, L.P.), VEREIT, Inc. (f/k/a American Realty Capital Properties, Inc.) (“Parent”), and certain other parties named therein to U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes
any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect to the series of Securities of which this Note is a part), together with the Officer’s Certificate amending and supplementing the Base Indenture and establishing the terms of the Notes and
another series of Securities designated as the 4.125% Senior Notes due 2021, dated as of June 2, 2016 (collectively with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) and reference is hereby made to the Indenture, and all
modifications and amendments and indentures supplemental thereto relating to the Notes, made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties, and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Issuer, the Guarantor(s) and the
Holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of a series of Securities designated as the 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (collectively, the “Notes”) of the Issuer,
limited (except as permitted under the Indenture) in aggregate principal amount to $600,000,000. 
 Payments of principal, premium, if any,
and interest in respect of the Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantor(s). 
 Offer to Repurchase upon Change of
Control and Ratings Decline. If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs with respect to the Notes, each Holder of such Notes shall have the right to require the Issuer to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of
$1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to an offer by the Issuer (a “Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth below, except to the extent the Issuer has delivered a notice of redemption to the
Holders of such Notes as described under the heading “Optional Redemption” below that is irrevocable (except to the extent conditioned on the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event). In the Change of Control Offer, the Issuer
shall offer a payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased, to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within
30 days following the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer shall mail a notice to each Holder of Notes describing the transaction or transactions that constitute, or are expected to constitute, the Change of Control
Triggering Event, and offering to repurchase Notes on the date (the “Change of Control Payment Date”) specified in the notice and stating: (1) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to the Offer to Repurchase
upon Change of Control and Ratings Decline provision of the Notes and that all Notes tendered into the Change of Control Offer will be accepted for payment; (2) the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 30 days and no
later than 60 days after the date such notice is mailed (or in the case of Global Securities, given pursuant to applicable DTC procedures); (3) that any Note not tendered and accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest; (4) that, unless
the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest on and after the Change of Control Payment Date; (5) that Holders electing to
have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender the Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Notes completed, to the Paying Agent at the address
specified in the notice prior to the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; (6) that Holders will be entitled to withdraw 

  
 Exh. A-2-5 

 
their election if the Paying Agent receives, not later than the close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a facsimile transmission or letter
setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its election to have the Notes purchased; and (7) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part
will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $2,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful: 

 

	 	(1)	accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; 

  

	 	(2)	deposit with the paying agent no later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Business Day immediately prior to the Change of Control Payment Date an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all
Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and 

  

	 	(3)	deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted together with an Officer’s Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of Notes being purchased by the Issuer.

 The Paying Agent shall promptly remit to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such
Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new
Note shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 The Issuer shall not be required to
make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture
applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in
advance of an anticipated Change of Control Triggering Event, conditional upon such Change of Control Triggering Event. 
 If Holders of not
less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes of this series validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Issuer, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Issuer
as described above, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Issuer or such third party will have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice (provided that as of the
date of such notice not more than 30 days has passed since such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above), to redeem all Notes of this series that remain Outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101% of
the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including the date of redemption. 
 The Issuer shall comply with
the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Notes as a result of a Change of Control
Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control and Ratings Decline provision of the Notes, the Issuer shall comply with the applicable securities laws and
regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control and Ratings Decline provision of the Notes by virtue of such conflict.

than by way of merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other business combination transaction), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of Parent, the Issuer and their Subsidiaries, taken as
a whole, to any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), but excluding any employee benefit plan of such person or its subsidiaries, and any person acting in its capacity as trustee, agent or other fiduciary or
administrator of any such plan); provided, however, that for the avoidance of doubt, the lease of all or substantially all of the real estate assets of Parent, the Issuer or any of their respective subsidiaries to an operator pursuant to a real
estate lease or leases shall not constitute a Change of Control; 
 (2) the adoption by shareholders or partners of a plan
relating to the liquidation or dissolution of Parent or the Issuer; 
 (3) the consummation of any transaction (including any
merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other business combination transaction) the result of which is that any “person” (as defined in clause (1) of this definition of “Change of Control”), other than any holding company which
owns 100% of the Voting Stock of Parent (so long as no Change of Control would otherwise have occurred in respect of the Voting Stock of such holding company), becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act)
of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of Parent, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; 
 (4) (a) Parent
ceases to own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the Voting Stock of the Issuer or (b) the sole general partner of the Issuer ceases to be Parent or one or more of Parent’s wholly owned subsidiaries; or 

(5) the replacement of a majority of the Board of Directors of Parent over a one-year period from the directors who constituted
the Board of Directors of Parent at the beginning of such period, and such replacement shall not have been approved by vote of at least a majority of the Board of Directors of Parent then still in office who either were members of the Board of
Directors at the beginning of such period or whose election as a member of such Board of Directors was previously so approved. 

  
 Exh. A-2-7 

 For purposes of this definition, (1) no Change of Control shall be deemed to have occurred solely
as a result of a transfer of assets among Parent, the Issuer and any of their respective Subsidiaries and (2) a Person shall not be deemed to have beneficial ownership of securities subject to a stock purchase agreement, merger agreement or similar
agreement until the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such agreement. 
 “Change of Control Triggering
Event” means the occurrence of both (1) a Change of Control and (2) a Rating Decline.

of Capital Stock, including partnership interests, whether general or limited, of such Person’s equity, whether outstanding on the original issue date of the Notes, including, without limitation, all series and classes of common stock. 

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and its successors.

(however designated, whether voting or non-voting), which have a preference on liquidation or with respect to distributions over any other class of Capital Stock, including preferred partnership interests, whether general or limited, or such
Person’s preferred or preference stock, whether outstanding on the original issue date of the Notes, including, without limitation, all series and classes of such preferred or preference stock. 

“Rating Agency” means (1) Moody’s or S&P or (2) if Moody’s or S&P or both shall not make a
rating on the Notes publicly available, a nationally recognized statistical rating agency or agencies, as the case may be, selected by the Issuer (as certified by a board resolution) which shall be substituted for Moody’s or S&P or both, as
the case may be. 
 “Rating Category” means (1) with respect to S&P, any of the following categories: BB,
B, CCC, CC, C and D (or equivalent successor categories); (2) with respect to Moody’s, any of the following categories: Ba, B, Caa, Ca, C and D (or equivalent successor categories); and (3) the equivalent of any such category of
S&P or Moody’s used by another Rating Agency, if any, selected by the Issuer. In determining whether the rating of the Notes has decreased by one or more gradations, gradations within Rating Categories ((1) + and - for S&P; (2) 1,
2 and 3 for Moody’s; and (3) the equivalent gradations for another Rating Agency selected by the Issuer) shall be taken into account (e.g., with respect to S&P, a decline in a rating from BB+ to BB, or from BB- to B+, will constitute a
decrease of one gradation). 
 “Rating Date” means the date which is the day immediately prior to the earlier of
(1) a Change of Control or (2) public notice of the occurrence of a Change of Control or of the intention by Parent or the Issuer to effect a Change of Control. 

“Rating Decline” shall be deemed to occur if, within 90 days after public notice of the occurrence of a Change of
Control (which period shall be extended so long as the rating of the Notes is under publicly 

  
 Exh. A-2-8 

 
announced consideration for possible downgrade by either of the Rating Agencies with respect to a Rating Category if such period exceeds 90 days), the rating of the Notes by each Rating Agency
shall be decreased by one or more gradations to or within a Rating Category (including gradations within Rating Categories as well as between Rating Categories) as compared to the rating of the Notes on the Rating Date immediately preceding such
Change of Control.

“Voting Stock” of Parent as of any date means the Capital Stock of Parent that is at the time entitled to vote in the
election of the board of directors of Parent. 
 Optional Redemption. The Issuer may redeem all or part of the Notes at any time at
its option at a redemption price equal to the greater of: 
 (a) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,
and 
 (b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the Notes to be
redeemed that would be due if such Notes matured 90 days prior to the Stated Maturity Date (the “2026 Par Call Date”) but for the redemption thereof (exclusive of interest accrued to the applicable Redemption Date) discounted
to such Redemption Date on a semiannual basis, assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, 

plus, in the case of both clauses (a) and (b) above, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but excluding,
the date fixed for redemption (the “Redemption Date”); provided that if the Notes are redeemed on or after the 2026 Par Call Date, the redemption price will equal 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be
redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the amount being redeemed to, but excluding, the date of redemption. 
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, installments of interest on the Notes that are due and payable on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable to the persons who were the Holders of the Notes (or one or more predecessor Notes)
registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates as set forth above and in Article III of the Indenture. 

As used herein (and to the extent any such definitions conflict with definitions included in the Base Indenture, the definitions included here
shall control with respect to the Notes): 
 “Comparable Treasury Issue” means, the U.S. Treasury security selected
by the Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed calculated as if the Stated Maturity Date were the applicable 2026 Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”)
that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the Remaining Life of such Notes. 

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for the Notes: 

(a) if the Issuer obtains four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, the average of such Reference
Treasury Dealer Quotations, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or 

  
 Exh. A-2-9 

 (b) if the Issuer obtains fewer than four but more than one such Reference
Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or 
 (c)
if the Issuer obtains only one such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation for such Redemption Date, that Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation. 

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers that the Issuer has appointed to act as
the “Independent Investment Banker”. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealer” means with respect to any Redemption
Date for the Notes, each of (i) J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Barclays Capital Inc. and their respective successors (provided, however, that if any such firm or any such successor, as the case may be, ceases to be a primary U.S. Government
securities dealer in The City of New York (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Issuer shall substitute therefor another nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a Primary Treasury Dealer), and (ii) up to two other
Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Issuer. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to
each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date for the Notes, the average, as determined by the Issuer, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in
writing to the Issuer by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date. 

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for the Notes: 

(a) the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently
published statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury
securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the Remaining Life of the
Notes, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis, rounding to the
nearest month) or 
 (b) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the
calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its
principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date. 
 The Treasury Rate shall be calculated by the Issuer on
the third Business Day preceding the applicable Redemption Date, on which date the Issuer will provide the Trustee with a calculation of the applicable redemption price. 

Notice of Redemption. No Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part. Notices of redemption will be mailed (or in the case of
Global Securities, given pursuant to applicable procedures of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)) at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed at its registered
address, except that redemption notices may be mailed or given more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with 

  
 Exh. A-2-10 

 
a defeasance of the Notes or a satisfaction and discharge of the Notes. If less than all of the Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected, so long as
such Notes are in book-entry form, in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC, or, if such Notes are issued in definitive certificated form, by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate. 

If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, (a) the Issuer shall give the Trustee five days’ notice (unless a shorter period is
satisfactory to the Trustee) in advance of the date of delivery of the notice of redemption to the Holders and (b) the notice of redemption that relates to that Note will state the portion of the principal amount of that Note that is to be redeemed.
A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the original Note will be issued in the name of the Holder of Notes upon cancellation of the original Note. Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for redemption
(subject to satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent). 
 Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and
after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions of them called for redemption. 
 This Note is not
mandatorily redeemable and is not entitled to the benefit of a sinking fund or any analogous provisions. 
 In case an Event of Default with
respect to this Note shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal hereof may be (and, in certain cases, shall be) declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect, and subject to the
conditions, provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the
modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and, if applicable, the Guarantors, and the rights of the Holders of the Securities under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and, if applicable, the Guarantors, and the Trustee with the
consent of the Holders of a majority in the aggregate principal amount of Securities of each series (voting as separate classes) issued under the Indenture at the time Outstanding and affected thereby. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture
permit the Holders of a majority in the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, in certain instances, to waive, on behalf of all of the Holders of Securities of such series, certain past defaults under the Indenture
and their consequences. Any such waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and other Notes issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof,
or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. 
 With respect to the Notes, Article XII of
the Indenture shall not be applicable to the Issuer, the Trustee or the Holders. 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of
this Note or the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, with respect to, and interest on, this Note in the manner, at the respective times, at
the rate and in the coin or currency herein prescribed. 
 The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance and discharge and for defeasance
at any time of certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to Notes of this series upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. 

This Note is issuable only in definitive registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in
excess thereof. This Note may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations at the office or agency of the Issuer in 

  
 Exh. A-2-11 

 
The City of New York, in the manner and subject to the limitations provided herein and in the Indenture, but without the payment of any charge except for any tax or other governmental charge
imposed in connection therewith. 
 The Issuer shall not pay additional amounts on this Note held by a Person that is not a U.S. Person in
respect of taxes or similar charges withheld or deducted. 
 The Issuer, the Guarantor(s) or the Trustee and any authorized agent of the
Issuer, the Guarantor(s) or the Trustee may deem and treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the Holder and absolute owner of this Note (whether or not this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or
other writing hereon), for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal of, or premium, if any, with respect to, or subject to the provisions on the face hereof, interest on, this Note and for all other purposes, and none of
the Issuer, the Guarantor(s) or the Trustee or any authorized agent of the Issuer, the Guarantor(s) or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 

THE INDENTURE AND THIS NOTE SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A CONTRACT UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AND FOR ALL PURPOSES SHALL BE GOVERNED
BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF SUCH STATE.
