"We are pleased to implement our first credit facility, which along with our proposed internalization, is a major step forward as we enter into our next phase of growth," said Ramin Kamfar, the Company's Chairman and CEO. "The Facility will provide us with added financial flexibility and more efficient cash management, which we expect will have a positive impact on our recurring AFFO. The Facility also strengthens our existing relationship with KeyBank, and establishes new important banking partnerships with Bank of America Merrill Lynch and JPMorgan."

The Facility expires in October 2020 and has one 12-month extension option. Amounts drawn under the Facility will bear interest at a variable rate initially equal to (i) LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.80% to 2.45% per annum or (ii) a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.80% to 1.45% per annum.

The Company plans to utilize the Facility to fund future acquisitions, including two properties which are currently under agreement and are expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2017.
