COLE CREDIT PROPERTY TRUST II, INC.

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS

Cole Credit Property Trust II, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation formed on September 29, 2004, that has elected to be taxed, and currently qualifies, as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for federal income tax purposes. Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through Cole Operating Partnership II, LP (“Cole OP II”), a Delaware limited partnership. The Company is the sole general partner of and owns a 99.99% partnership interest in Cole OP II. Cole REIT Advisors II, LLC (“Cole Advisors II”), the affiliate advisor to the Company, is the sole limited partner and owner of an insignificant noncontrolling partnership interest of less than 0.01% of Cole OP II.

As of March 31, 2011, the Company owned 727 properties comprising 20.7 million rentable square feet of single and multi-tenant retail and commercial space located in 45 states and the U.S. Virgin Islands. As of March 31, 2011, the rentable space at these properties was 95% leased. As of March 31, 2011, the Company also owned 69 mortgage notes receivable secured by 43 restaurant properties and 26 single-tenant retail properties, each of which is subject to a net lease. Through two joint ventures, the Company had a majority indirect interest in a 386,000 square foot multi-tenant retail building in Independence, Missouri and a majority indirect interest in a ten-property storage facility portfolio as of March 31, 2011. In addition, the Company owned four commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) bonds as of March 31, 2011.

The Company ceased offering shares of common stock in its initial primary offering (the “Initial Offering”) on May 22, 2007, and ceased offering shares of common stock in its follow-on offering (the “Follow-on Offering”) on January 2, 2009. The Company continues to issue shares of common stock under its dividend reinvestment plan (the “DRIP Offering”, and collectively with the Initial Offering and the Follow-on Offering, the “Offerings”). As of March 31, 2011, the Company had issued approximately 219.9 million shares of common stock in its Offerings for aggregate gross proceeds of $2.2 billion (including proceeds from the issuance of shares pursuant to the DRIP Offering of $224.6 million), before share redemptions of $94.1 million. As of March 31, 2011, the Company had incurred an aggregate of $188.3 million in offering costs, selling commissions, and dealer management fees in the Offerings.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X, and do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the statements for the interim periods presented include all adjustments, which are of a normal and recurring nature, necessary to present a fair presentation of the results for such periods. Results for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of full year results. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010, and related notes thereto set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The accompanying condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company evaluates the need to consolidate joint ventures based on standards set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). In determining whether the Company has a controlling interest in a joint venture and the requirement to consolidate the accounts of that entity, management considers factors such as ownership interest, authority to make decisions and contractual and substantive participating rights of the partners/members as well as whether the entity is a variable interest entity for which the Company is the primary beneficiary.

Valuation of Real Estate and Related Assets

The Company continually monitors events and changes in circumstances that could indicate that the carrying amounts of its real estate and related intangible assets may not be recoverable. Impairment indicators that the Company considers include, but are not limited to, bankruptcy or other credit concerns of a property’s major tenant, such as a history of late payments, rental concessions, and other factors, a significant decrease in a property’s revenues due to lease terminations, vacancies, co-tenancy clauses, reduced lease rates or other circumstances. When indicators of potential impairment are present, the Company assesses the recoverability of the assets by determining whether the carrying value of the assets will be recovered through the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. In the event that such expected undiscounted future cash flows do not exceed the carrying value, the Company will adjust the real estate and related intangible assets to their fair value and recognize an impairment loss.

The Company continues to monitor certain properties for which it has identified impairment indicators. As of March 31, 2011, the Company had eight properties with an aggregate book value of $59.8 million for which it had assessed the recoverability of the carrying values. For each of these properties, the undiscounted future operating cash flows expected from the use of these properties and their related intangible assets and their eventual disposition continued to exceed the carrying value of these assets as of March 31, 2011. Should the conditions related to any of these properties change, the underlying assumptions used to determine the expected undiscounted future operating cash flows may change and adversely affect the recoverability of the carrying values related to these properties. No impairment losses were recorded during each of the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

Projections of expected future cash flows require the Company to use estimates such as current market rental rates on vacant properties, future market rental income amounts subsequent to the expiration of current lease agreements, property operating expenses, terminal capitalization and discount rates, the number of months it takes to re-lease the property, required tenant improvements and the number of years the property is held for investment. The use of alternative assumptions in the future cash flow analysis could result in a different assessment of the property’s future cash flow and a different conclusion regarding the existence of an impairment, the extent of such loss, if any, as well as the carrying value of the real estate and related intangible assets.

Restricted Cash and Escrows

Restricted cash of $7.3 million and $8.3 million as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, represented tenant and capital improvements, leasing commissions, repairs and maintenance and other lender reserves for certain properties, in accordance with the respective lender’s loan agreement.

Concentration of Credit Risk

As of March 31, 2011, the Company had cash on deposit, including restricted cash, in five financial institutions, four of which had deposits in excess of federally insured levels totaling $35.4 million; however, the Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. The Company limits significant cash holdings to accounts held by financial institutions with high credit standing; therefore, the Company believes it is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash.

Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures

Investment in unconsolidated joint ventures as of March 31, 2011 consisted of the Company’s non-controlling majority interest in a joint venture that owns a multi-tenant property in Independence, Missouri and a majority interest in a joint venture that owns a ten-property storage facility portfolio. Consolidation of these investments is not required as the entities do not qualify as variable interest entities and do not meet the control requirements for consolidation, as defined in ASC 810. Both the Company and the respective joint venture partner must approve decisions about the respective entity’s activities that have a significant effect on the success of the entity. As of March 31, 2011, the aggregate carrying value of assets held within the unconsolidated joint ventures was $147.5 million and the face value of the non-recourse mortgage notes payable was $111.1 million. As of December 31, 2010, the aggregate carrying value of assets held within the unconsolidated joint ventures was $148.6 million and the face value of the non-recourse mortgage notes payable was $111.6 million.

COLE CREDIT PROPERTY TRUST II, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)
March 31, 2011

The Company accounts for the unconsolidated joint ventures using the equity method of accounting per guidance established under ASC 323, Investments — Equity Method and Joint Ventures (“ASC 323”). The equity method of accounting requires the investments to be initially recorded at cost and subsequently adjusted for the Company’s share of equity in the joint ventures’ earnings and distributions. The Company evaluates the carrying amount of each investment for impairment in accordance with ASC 323. The unconsolidated joint ventures are reviewed for potential impairment if the carrying amount of the investment exceeds its fair value. To determine whether impairment is other-than-temporary, the Company considers whether it has the ability and intent to hold the investment until the carrying value is fully recovered. The evaluation of an investment in a joint venture for potential impairment can require the Company’s management to exercise significant judgments and assumptions. The use of different judgments and assumptions could result in different conclusions. No impairment losses were recorded related to the unconsolidated joint ventures for the three months ended March 31, 2011 or 2010.

Redeemable Common Stock

The Company’s share redemption program provides that the Company will not redeem in excess of 3% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year (including shares requested for redemption upon the death of a stockholder), and the cash available for redemptions (including those upon death or qualifying disability) is limited to the net cumulative proceeds from the sale of shares pursuant to the DRIP Offering. In addition, the Company will redeem shares on a quarterly basis, at the rate of one-fourth of 3% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year (including shares requested for redemption upon the death of a stockholder). Funding for redemptions for each quarter (including those upon death or qualifying disability of a stockholder) will also be limited to the net proceeds the Company receives from the sale of shares during such quarter from the DRIP Offering. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had redeemed approximately 10.3 million and approximately 8.8 million shares of common stock, respectively, for an aggregate price of $94.1 million and $82.2 million, respectively.

The redemption price per share is dependent on the length of time the shares are held and the estimated share value. For purposes of establishing the redemption price per share, estimated share value means the most recently disclosed estimated value of the Company’s shares of common stock, as determined by the Company’s board of directors, including a majority of the Company’s independent directors (the “Estimated Share Value”). As of March 31, 2011, the Estimated Share Value was $8.05 per share, as determined by the Company’s board of directors on June 22, 2010.

NOTE 3 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. ASC 820 emphasizes that fair value is intended to be a market-based measurement, as opposed to a transaction-specific measurement.

Fair value is defined by ASC 820 as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate the fair value. Assets and liabilities are measured using inputs from three levels of the fair value hierarchy, as follows:

Level 1 — Inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. An active market is defined as a market in which transactions for the assets or liabilities occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2 — Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active (markets with few transactions), inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (i.e., interest rates, yield curves, etc.), and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data correlation or other means (market corroborated inputs).

Level 3 — Unobservable inputs, only used to the extent that observable inputs are not available, reflect the Company’s assumptions about the pricing of an asset or liability.

The following describes the methods the Company uses to estimate the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities:

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, rents and tenant receivables, and accounts payable and accrued expenses — The Company considers the carrying values of these financial instruments to approximate fair value because of the short period of time between origination of the instruments and their expected realization.

Mortgage notes receivable — The fair value is estimated by discounting the expected cash flows on the notes at rates at which management believes similar loans would be made as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The estimated fair value of these notes was $83.2 million and $83.9 million as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, as compared to the carrying values of $79.0 million and $79.8 million as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

Notes payable, line of credit and repurchase agreement — The fair value is estimated using a discounted cash flow technique based on estimated borrowing rates available to the Company as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. The estimated fair value of the notes payable, line of credit and repurchase agreement was $1.7 billion as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, which was equal to the carrying value of $1.7 billion as of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010.

Marketable securities — The Company’s marketable securities, including those pledged as collateral, are carried at fair value and are valued using Level 3 inputs. The Company primarily uses estimated non-binding quoted market prices from the trading desks of financial institutions that are dealers in such bonds, where available, for similar CMBS tranches that actively participate in the CMBS market, adjusted for industry benchmarks, such as the CMBX Index, where applicable. Market conditions, such as interest rates, liquidity, trading activity and credit spreads, may cause significant variability to the received quotes. If the Company is unable to obtain quotes from third parties or if the Company believes quotes received are inaccurate, the Company would estimate fair value using internal models that primarily consider the CMBX Index, expected cash flows, known and expected defaults and rating agency reports. Changes in market conditions, as well as changes in the assumptions or methodology used to estimate fair value, could result in a significant increase or decrease in the recorded amount of the securities. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, no marketable securities were valued using internal models. Significant judgment is involved in valuations and different judgments and assumptions used in management’s valuation could result in different valuations. If there continues to be significant disruptions to the financial markets, the Company’s estimates of fair value may have significant volatility.

Derivative Instruments — The Company’s derivative instruments represent interest rate swaps. All derivative instruments are carried at fair value and are valued using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of these instruments is determined using interest rate market pricing models. The Company includes the impact of credit valuation adjustments on derivative instruments measured at fair value.

Considerable judgment is necessary to develop estimated fair values of financial instruments. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize, or be liable for, on disposition of the financial instruments.

In accordance with the fair value hierarchy described above, the following table shows the fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2011 (in thousands):

2011 Property Acquisitions

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company acquired a 100% interest in two commercial properties for an aggregate purchase price of $8.7 million (the “2011 Acquisitions”). The Company purchased the 2011 Acquisitions with a combination of proceeds from the DRIP Offering, cash flows from operations and net proceeds from borrowings. The Company allocated the purchase price of these properties to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The following table summarizes the purchase price allocation (in thousands):

		March 31, 2011
Land		$	2,225
Building and improvements			5,058
Acquired in-place leases			1,289
Acquired above-market leases			98
Total purchase price		$	8,670

The Company recorded revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 of $85,000, and a net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2011 of $213,000 related to the 2011 Acquisitions. In addition, the Company expensed $362,000 of acquisition costs for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

The following information summarizes selected financial information from the combined results of operations of the Company, as if all of the 2011 Acquisitions were completed on January 1, 2010 for each period presented below.

NOTE 6 — INVESTMENT IN MORTGAGE NOTES RECEIVABLE

As of March 31, 2011, the Company owned 69 mortgage notes receivable, which were secured by 43 restaurant properties and 26 single-tenant retail properties (each, a “Mortgage Note”, and collectively, the “Mortgage Notes”). As of March 31, 2011, the Mortgage Notes balance of $79.0 million consisted of the face amount of the Mortgage Notes of $72.4 million, a $6.9 million premium, $2.0 million of acquisition costs, and was net of accumulated amortization of premium and acquisition costs of $2.3 million. As of December 31, 2010, the Mortgage Notes balance of $79.8 million consisted of the face amount of the Mortgage Notes of $73.0 million, a $6.9 million premium, $2.0 million of acquisition costs, and was net of accumulated amortization of premium and acquisition costs of $2.1 million. The premium and acquisition costs are amortized into interest income over the term of each of the Mortgage Notes using the effective interest rate method. The Mortgage Notes mature on various dates from August 1, 2020 to January 1, 2021. Interest and principal are due each month at interest rates ranging from 8.60% to 10.47% per annum and a weighted average interest rate of 9.88%. There were no amounts past due as of March 31, 2011.

The Company evaluates the collectability of both interest and principal on each Mortgage Note to determine whether it is collectible, primarily through the evaluation of credit quality indicators, such as underlying collateral and payment history. No impairment losses or allowances were recorded related to the Mortgage Notes for the three months ended March 31, 2011 or 2010.

NOTE 7 — MARKETABLE SECURITIES

As of March 31, 2011, the Company owned four CMBS bonds, with an estimated aggregate fair value of $60.9 million. As of December 31, 2010, the Company owned six CMBS bonds, with an estimated aggregate fair value of $82.0 million. In March, 2011, the Company sold two of the CMBS bonds for $20.2 million, and realized a gain on the sale of $7.9 million, of which $7.7 million had previously been recorded in other comprehensive income. Realized gains and losses from the sale of available-for-sale securities are determined on a specific identification basis.

As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the securities were pledged as collateral to a bank under a repurchase agreement (the “Repurchase Agreement”), which provided secured borrowings in the amount of $44.7 million and $54.3 million, respectively, with a weighted average interest rate of 1.46% and 1.68%, respectively (see Note 9 below). The following provides the activity for the CMBS bonds during the three months ended March 31, 2011 (in thousands):

		Amortized				Unrealized
		Cost Basis				Gains				Total
Marketable securities as of December 31, 2010		$	65,628			$	16,367			$	81,995

Accretion of discounts on marketable securities			684				—				684
Marketable securities as of March 31, 2011		$	53,965			$	6,906			$	60,871

One CMBS bond was in an unrealized loss position of $785,000 as of March 31, 2011. The remaining three CMBS bonds were in an unrealized gain position of $7.7 million as of March 31, 2011. All of the six CMBS bonds were in an unrealized gain position as of December 31, 2010.

As of March 31, 2011, the cumulative unrealized loss of $785,000, which is included in accumulated other comprehensive income on the accompanying condensed consolidated unaudited balance sheets, was deemed to be a temporary impairment based upon (i) the Company having no intent to sell the security before recovery, (ii) it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell the security before recovery; and (iii) the Company’s expectation to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. The Company determined that the cumulative unrealized loss resulted from volatility in interest rates and credit spreads and other qualitative factors relating to macro-credit conditions in the mortgage market. Additionally, as of March 31, 2011, the Company had determined that the subordinate CMBS tranches below the Company’s CMBS investment adequately protected the Company’s ability to recover its investment and that the Company’s estimates of anticipated future cash flows from the CMBS investment had not been adversely impacted by any deterioration in the creditworthiness of the specific CMBS issuers.

Accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on the intended use and the designation of the derivative instrument. The change in fair value of the effective portion of the derivative instrument that is designated as a hedge is recorded as other comprehensive income or loss. The Company designated the interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges, to hedge the variability of the anticipated cash flows on its variable rate notes payable.

The following table summarizes the gains and losses on the Company’s derivative instruments and hedging activities (in thousands):

		Amount of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Other
		Comprehensive Income on Derivative
Derivatives in Cash Flow		Three Months Ended March 31,
Hedging Relationships		2011				2010
Interest Rate Swaps (1)		$	258			$	(496	)

The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision whereby, if the Company defaults on certain of its unsecured indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations resulting in an acceleration of payment. In addition, the Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of non-performance by its derivative counterparties. The Company believes it mitigates its credit risk by entering into agreements with credit-worthy counterparties. The Company records counterparty credit risk valuation adjustments on its interest rate swap derivative asset in order to properly reflect the credit quality of the counterparty. In addition, the Company’s fair value of interest rate swap derivative liabilities is adjusted to reflect the impact of the Company’s credit quality. As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, there have been no termination events or events of default related to the interest rate swaps.

NOTE 9 — NOTES PAYABLE, LINE OF CREDIT AND REPURCHASE AGREEMENT

As of March 31, 2011, the Company had $1.7 billion of debt outstanding, consisting of (i) $1.5 billion in fixed rate mortgage loans (the “Fixed Rate Debt”), (ii) $38.3 million in variable rate mortgage loans (the “Variable Rate Debt”), (iii) $127.1 million outstanding under a senior unsecured line of credit entered into on December 17, 2010 (the “Credit Facility”); and (iv) $44.7 million outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement. The aggregate balance of gross real estate assets and marketable securities, net of gross intangible lease liabilities, securing the Fixed Rate Debt, Variable Rate Debt and Repurchase Agreement, was $2.7 billion as of March 31, 2011. Additionally, the combined weighted average interest rate was 5.62% and the weighted average years to maturity was 4.84 years as of March 31, 2011.

The Credit Facility and certain notes payable contain customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants, including requirements for minimum net worth and debt service coverage ratios, in addition to limits on the Company’s overall leverage ratios and Variable Rate Debt. The Company believes it was in compliance with the covenants of the Credit Facility and such notes payable as of March 31, 2011.

Notes Payable

The Fixed Rate Debt has annual interest rates ranging from 4.46% to 7.22%, with a weighted average annual interest rate of 5.88%, and various maturity dates ranging from April, 2011 through August, 2031. The Variable Rate Debt has annual interest rates ranging from LIBOR plus 200 to 325 basis points, and matures in September, 2011. The notes payable are secured by properties in the portfolio and their related tenant leases, as well as other real estate related assets on which the debt was placed. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company repaid $24.5 million of fixed rate debt, including monthly principal payments on amortizing loans.

Line of Credit

The Credit Facility provides for up to $350.0 million of unsecured borrowings. The Credit Facility allows the Company to borrow up to $238.9 million in revolving loans (the “Revolving Loans”) and $111.1 million in a term loan (the “Term Loan”). The Credit Facility matures on December 17, 2013.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company borrowed $29.1 million and repaid $2.0 million under the Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2011, the Company had $111.1 million outstanding under the Term Loan and an additional $16.0 million in Revolving Loans. Additionally, the Company has established a letter of credit in the amount of $476,000 from the Credit Facility lenders to support an escrow agreement between a certain property and that property’s lender. This letter of credit reduces the amount of borrowings available under the Credit Facility. The Company executed an interest rate swap agreement on February 24, 2011, which fixed LIBOR for amounts outstanding under the Term Loan to 1.44%. The all-in rate for the Term Loan includes a spread of 275 to 400 basis points, as determined by the leverage ratio of the Company, which was equal to a spread of 350 basis points as of March 31, 2011. Revolving Loans outstanding as of March 31, 2011, bore interest at Bank of America’s prime rate plus 250 basis points.

Repurchase Agreement

As of March 31, 2011, the Company had $44.7 million outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement, which bears interest at a weighted average interest rate of 1.46% and matured in April of 2011. Subsequent to March 31, 2011, the Company repaid $25.6 million under the Repurchase Agreement and renewed the remaining amount outstanding through May 2011. Upon maturity, the Company may elect to renew the Repurchase Agreement for periods ranging from 15 days to 90 days until the CMBS bonds, which are pledged as collateral, mature. The CMBS bonds have maturities ranging from August 2014 to September 2017, with a weighted average remaining term of 5.31 years. The Repurchase Agreement is being accounted for as a secured borrowing because the Company maintains effective control of the financed assets.

Under the Repurchase Agreement, the lender retains the right to mark the underlying collateral to fair value. A reduction in the value of pledged assets would require the Company to provide additional collateral to fund margin calls. As of March 31, 2011, the amount outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement was $44.7 million and the marketable securities held as collateral had a fair value of $60.9 and an amortized cost basis of $54.0 million. There was no cash collateral held by the counterparty as of March 31, 2011. The Repurchase Agreement is non-recourse to the Company and Cole OP II.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company borrowed an additional $8.1 million under the Repurchase Agreement and repaid $17.7 million under the Repurchase Agreement, of which $14.2 million was in connection with the sale of two of the Company’s CMBS bonds (see Note 7 above).

Additionally, in connection with the purchase of certain of the properties, the respective sellers and/or tenants have indemnified the Company against future remediation costs. In addition, the Company carries environmental liability insurance on its properties that provides limited coverage for remediation liability and pollution liability for third-party bodily injury and property damage claims. The Company does not believe that the environmental matters identified at such properties will have a material adverse effect on its condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements, nor is it aware of any environmental matters at other properties which it believes will have a material adverse effect on its condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements.

NOTE 12 — RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS AND ARRANGEMENTS

The Company has incurred commissions, fees and expenses payable to Cole Advisors II and its affiliates in connection with the Offerings, and has incurred and will continue to incur commissions, fees and expenses in connection with the acquisition, management and sale of the assets of the Company.

DRIP Offering

During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company did not pay any amounts to Cole Advisors II for selling commissions, dealer manager fees, or other organization and offering expense reimbursements incurred in connection with the DRIP Offering.

Acquisitions and Operations

Cole Advisors II or its affiliates also receives acquisition and advisory fees of up to 2.0% of the contract purchase price of each asset for the acquisition, development or construction of properties, and will be reimbursed for acquisition expenses incurred in the process of acquiring properties, so long as the total acquisition fees and expenses relating to the transaction do not exceed 4.0% of the contract purchase price.

The Company paid, and expects to continue to pay, Cole Advisors II an annualized asset management fee of 0.25% of the aggregate asset value of the Company’s aggregate invested assets, as reasonably estimated by the Company’s board of directors.

The Company paid, and expects to continue to pay, Cole Realty Advisors, Inc. (“Cole Realty Advisors”), its affiliated property manager, up to (i) 2.0% of gross revenues received from the Company’s single tenant properties and (ii) 4.0% of gross revenues received from the Company’s multi-tenant properties, plus leasing commissions at prevailing market rates; provided however, that the aggregate of all property management and leasing fees paid to affiliates plus all payments to third parties will not exceed the amount that other nonaffiliated management and leasing companies generally charge for similar services in the same geographic location. Cole Realty Advisors may subcontract certain of its duties for a fee that may be less than the fee provided for in the property management agreement. The Company will also reimburse Cole Realty Advisors’ costs of managing and leasing the properties.

The Company will reimburse Cole Advisors II for all expenses it paid or incurred in connection with the services provided to the Company, subject to the limitation that the Company will not reimburse Cole Advisors II for any amount by which its operating expenses (including the Asset Management Fee) at the end of the four preceding fiscal quarters exceeds the greater of (i) 2% of average invested assets, or (ii) 25% of net income other than any additions to reserves for depreciation, bad debts or other similar non-cash reserves and excluding any gain from the sale of assets for that period, unless the Company’s independent directors find that a higher level of expense is justified for that year based on unusual and non-recurring factors. The Company will not reimburse Cole Advisors II for personnel costs in connection with services for which Cole Advisors II receives acquisition fees and real estate commissions.

If Cole Advisors II provides services in connection with the origination or refinancing of any debt financing obtained by the Company that is used to acquire properties or to make other permitted investments, or that is assumed, directly or indirectly, in connection with the acquisition of properties, the Company will pay Cole Advisors II or its affiliates a financing coordination fee equal to 1% of the amount available under such financing; provided however, that Cole Advisors II or its affiliates shall not be entitled to a financing coordination fee in connection with the refinancing of any loan secured by any particular property that was previously subject to a refinancing in which Cole Advisors II or its affiliates received such a fee. Financing coordination fees payable from loan proceeds from permanent financing are paid to Cole Advisors II or its affiliates as the Company acquires and/or assumes such permanent financing. However, no financing coordination fees are paid on loan proceeds from any line of credit until such time as all net offering proceeds have been invested by the Company.

In no event will the combined real estate commission paid to Cole Advisors II, its affiliates and unaffiliated third parties exceed 6% of the contract sales price. In addition, after investors have received a return of their net capital contributions and an 8% annual cumulative, non-compounded return, then Cole Advisors II is entitled to receive 10% of the remaining net sale proceeds.

Upon listing of the Company’s common stock on a national securities exchange, a fee equal to 10% of the amount by which the market value of the Company’s outstanding stock plus all distributions paid by the Company prior to listing, exceeds the sum of the total amount of capital raised from investors and the amount of cash flow necessary to generate an 8% annual cumulative, non-compounded return to investors will be paid to Cole Advisors II (the “Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee”).

Upon termination of the advisory agreement with Cole Advisors II, other than termination by the Company because of a material breach of the advisory agreement by Cole Advisors II, a performance fee of 10% of the amount, if any, by which (i) the appraised asset value at the time of such termination plus total distributions paid to stockholders through the termination date exceeds (ii) the aggregate capital contribution contributed by investors less distributions from sale proceeds plus payment to investors of an 8% annual, cumulative, non-compounded return on capital. No subordinated performance fee will be paid to the extent that the Company has already paid or become obligated to pay Cole Advisors II a subordinated participation in net sale proceeds or the Subordinated Incentive Listing Fee.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, and 2010, no commissions or fees were incurred for services provided by Cole Advisors II and its affiliates related to the services described above.

Other

As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, $1.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively, had been incurred, primarily for the general and administrative, acquisition, construction management, property and asset management expenses, by Cole Advisors II and its affiliates, but had not yet been reimbursed by the Company and were included in due to affiliates on the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements.

NOTE 13 — ECONOMIC DEPENDENCY

Under various agreements, the Company has engaged or will engage Cole Advisors II and its affiliates to provide certain services that are essential to the Company, including asset management services, supervision of the management and leasing of properties owned by the Company, asset acquisition and disposition decisions, the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock available for issue, as well as other administrative responsibilities for the Company, including accounting services and investor relations. As a result of these relationships, the Company is dependent upon Cole Advisors II and its affiliates. In the event that these companies are unable to provide the Company with these services, the Company would be required to find alternative providers of these services.

NOTE 14 — NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In December 2010, FASB issued ASU 2010-29, Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations, (“ASU 2010-29”), which clarifies the manner in which pro forma disclosures are calculated and provides additional disclosure requirements regarding material nonrecurring adjustments recorded as a result of a business combination. ASU 2010-29 was effective for the Company beginning on January 1, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2010-29 has not had a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 15 — INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS’ STOCK OPTION PLAN

The Company has a stock option plan, the Independent Director’s Stock Option Plan (the “IDSOP”), which authorizes the grant of non-qualified stock options to the Company’s independent directors, subject to the absolute discretion of the board of directors and the applicable limitations of the IDSOP. The term of the IDSOP is ten years, at which time any outstanding options will be forfeited. The exercise price for the options granted under the IDSOP was $9.15 per share for 2005 and 2006, and $9.10 per share for 2007, 2008 and 2009. The Company does not intend to continue to grant options under the IDSOP; however, the exercise price for any future options granted under the IDSOP will be at least 100% of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock as of the date the option is granted. As of March 31, 2011, the Company had granted options to purchase 50,000 shares at a weighted average exercise price of $9.12 per share, of which options to purchase 45,000 shares remained outstanding with a weighted average contractual remaining life of six years. Options to purchase 5,000 shares were exercised at a price of $9.10 per share in 2009. A total of 1,000,000 shares have been authorized and reserved for issuance under the IDSOP.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the Company did not record any stock-based compensation charges, as all stock-based compensation charges related to unvested share-based compensation awards granted under the IDSOP had previously been recognized. During the three months ended March 31, 2010, the Company recorded stock-based compensation charges of $4,000. Stock-based compensation expense is based on awards ultimately expected to vest and reduced for estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated at the time of grant and revised, if necessary, in subsequent periods if actual forfeitures differ from those estimates. The Company’s calculations assume no forfeitures.

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based upon our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On a regular basis, we evaluate these estimates. These estimates are based on management’s historical industry experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Overview

We were formed on September 29, 2004 to acquire and operate commercial real estate primarily consisting of freestanding, single-tenant, retail properties net leased to investment grade and other creditworthy tenants located throughout the United States. We commenced our principal operations on September 23, 2005, when we issued the initial 486,000 shares of our common stock in our Initial Offering. We have no paid employees and are externally advised and managed by Cole Advisors II, our advisor. We currently qualify, and intend to continue to elect to qualify, as a REIT for federal income tax purposes.

Our operating results and cash flows are primarily influenced by rental income from our commercial properties and interest expense on our property indebtedness. Rental and other property income accounted for 87% and 88% of total revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. As 95% of our rentable square feet was under lease as of March 31, 2011, with a weighted average remaining lease term of 11.1 years, we believe our exposure to changes in commercial rental rates on our portfolio is substantially mitigated, except for vacancies caused by tenant bankruptcies or other factors. Our advisor regularly monitors the creditworthiness of our tenants by reviewing the tenant’s financial results, credit rating agency reports (if any) on the tenant or guarantor, the operating history of the property with such tenant, the tenant’s market share and track record within its industry segment, the general health and outlook of the tenant’s industry segment, and other information for changes and possible trends. If our advisor identifies significant changes or trends that may adversely affect the creditworthiness of a tenant, it will gather a more in-depth knowledge of the tenant’s financial condition and, if necessary, attempt to mitigate the tenant’s credit risk by evaluating the possible sale of the property, or identifying a possible replacement tenant should the current tenant fail to perform on the lease.

As of March 31, 2011, the debt leverage ratio of our consolidated real estate assets, which is the ratio of debt to total gross real estate assets and marketable securities, net of gross intangible lease liabilities, was 50%, with 3.0% of the debt, or $54.3 million, including $16.0 million in Revolving Loans outstanding under the Credit Facility, subject to variable interest rates. Should we continue to acquire additional commercial real estate, we will be subject to changes in real estate prices and changes in interest rates on any new indebtedness used to acquire the properties. We may manage our risk of changes in real estate prices on future property acquisitions, if any, by entering into purchase agreements and loan commitments simultaneously so that our operating yield is determinable at the time we enter into a purchase agreement, by contracting with developers for future delivery of properties, or by entering into sale-leaseback transactions. We manage our interest rate risk by monitoring the interest rate environment in connection with our future property acquisitions, if any, or upcoming debt maturities to determine the appropriate financing or refinancing terms, which may include fixed rate loans, variable rate loans or interest rate hedges. If we are unable to acquire suitable properties or obtain suitable financing terms for future acquisitions or refinancing, our results of operations may be adversely affected.

Recent Market Conditions

Beginning in late 2007, domestic and international financial markets experienced significant disruptions that were brought about in large part by challenges in the world-wide banking system. These disruptions severely impacted the availability of credit and have contributed to rising costs associated with obtaining credit. Recently, the volume of mortgage lending for commercial real estate has increased and lending terms have improved; however, such lending activity is significantly less than previous levels. Although lending market conditions have improved, we have experienced, and may continue to experience, more stringent lending criteria, which may affect our ability to finance certain property acquisitions or refinance our debt at maturity. For properties for which we are able to obtain financing, the interest rates and other terms on such loans may be unacceptable. Additionally, if we are able to refinance our existing debt as it matures, it may be at lower leverage levels or at rates and terms which are less favorable than our existing debt or, if we elect to extend the maturity dates of the mortgage notes in accordance with the hyper-amortization provisions, the interest rates charged to us will be higher, each of which may adversely affect our results of operations and the distribution rate we are able to pay to our investors. We have managed, and expect to continue to manage, the current mortgage lending environment by utilizing borrowings on our Credit Facility, and considering alternative lending sources, including the securitization of debt, utilizing fixed rate loans, short-term variable rate loans, assuming existing mortgage loans in connection with property acquisitions, or entering into interest rate lock or swap agreements, or any combination of the foregoing. We have acquired, and may continue to acquire, our properties for cash without financing. If we are unable to obtain suitable financing for future acquisitions or we are unable to identify suitable properties at appropriate prices in the current credit environment, we may have a larger amount of uninvested cash, which may adversely affect our results of operations. We will continue to evaluate alternatives in the current market, including purchasing or originating debt backed by real estate, which could produce attractive yields in the current market environment.

The economic downturn has led to high unemployment rates and a decline in consumer spending. These economic trends have adversely impacted the retail and real estate markets, causing higher tenant vacancies, declining rental rates and declining property values. Recently, the economy has improved and continues to show signs of recovery. Additionally, the real estate markets have recently observed an improvement in occupancy rates; however, occupancy and rental rates continue to be below those previously experienced before the economic downturn. As of March 31, 2011, 95% of our rentable square feet was under lease. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, our percentage of rentable square feet under lease increased slightly. However, if the current economic uncertainty persists, we may experience additional vacancies or be required to further reduce rental rates on occupied space. Our advisor is actively seeking to lease all of our vacant space, however, as retailers and other tenants have been delaying or eliminating their store expansion plans, the amount of time required to re-lease a property has increased.

Results of Operations

As of March 31, 2011, we owned 727 properties comprising 20.7 million rentable square feet of single and multi-tenant retail and commercial space located in 45 states and the U.S. Virgin Islands. As of March 31, 2011, 414 of the properties were freestanding, single-tenant retail properties, 292 of the properties were freestanding, single-tenant commercial properties and 21 of the properties were multi-tenant retail properties. Of the leases related to these properties, 13 were classified as direct financing leases, as discussed in Note 4 to our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements accompanying this report. As of March 31, 2011, 95% of the rentable square feet of our properties were leased, with a weighted-average remaining lease term of 11.1 years. In addition, as of March 31, 2011, we owned four CMBS bonds, with an aggregate fair value of $60.9 million, and 69 mortgage notes receivable, which were secured by 43 restaurant properties and 26 single-tenant retail properties. As of March 31, 2011, we had outstanding debt of $1.7 billion, secured by properties in our portfolio and their related tenant leases and other real estate related assets on which the debt was placed. Through two joint ventures, we had a majority indirect interest in a 386,000 square foot multi-tenant retail building in Independence, Missouri, and a majority indirect interest in a ten-property storage facility portfolio as of March 31, 2011. As of March 31, 2011, the total assets held within the unconsolidated joint ventures was $147.5 million and the face value of the non-recourse mortgage notes payable was $111.1 million.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010

Revenue. Revenue increased $3.1 million, or 5%, to $69.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $66.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Our revenue consisted primarily of rental and other property income from net leased commercial properties, which accounted for 87% and 88% of total revenues during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Rental and other property income increased $2.1 million, or 3%, to $61.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $58.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was primarily due to the acquisition of 33 properties subsequent to March 31, 2010. We also pay certain operating expenses subject to reimbursement by the tenant, which resulted in $4.8 million in tenant reimbursement income during the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $3.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was primarily due to an increase in certain operating expenses related to these properties that are subject to reimbursement by the tenant, resulting from the 33 new property acquisitions subsequent to March 31, 2011.

Earned income from direct financing leases remained relatively constant, decreasing $88,000, or 15%, to $486,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $574,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. We owned 13 properties accounted for as direct financing leases for each of the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

Interest income on mortgage notes receivable remained relatively constant decreasing $55,000, or 3%, to $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, as we recorded interest income on mortgages receivable on 69 amortizing mortgage notes receivable during each of the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010.

Interest income on marketable securities remained relatively constant at $1.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, increasing $52,000, or 3%, as we recorded interest income and amortization of discount on our CMBS bonds.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses remained relatively constant, decreasing $51,000, or 2%, to $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily due to lower accounting fees for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010. The primary general and administrative expense items were operating expenses reimbursable to our advisor, accounting and legal fees, state franchise and income taxes, and escrow and trustee fees.

Property Operating Expenses. Property operating expenses increased $717,000, or 14%, to $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $5.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was primarily related to an increase in property taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010, resulting from a decreased number of tenants who are electing to directly pay their respective property taxes. The primary property operating expense items are property taxes, repairs and maintenance, insurance and bad debt expense.

Property and Asset Management Expenses. Pursuant to the advisory agreement with our advisor, as amended, we are required to pay to our advisor a monthly asset management fee equal to one-twelfth of 0.25% of the aggregate valuation of our invested assets, as determined by our board of directors. Additionally, we reimburse costs incurred by our advisor in providing asset management services, subject to certain limitations, as set forth in the advisory agreement. Pursuant to the property management agreement with our affiliated property manager, we are required to pay to our property manager a property management fee in an amount up to 2% of gross revenues received from each of our single-tenant properties and up to 4% of gross revenues received from each of our multi-tenant properties, less all payments to third-party management subcontractors. We reimburse Cole Realty Advisors’ costs of managing and leasing the properties, subject to certain limitations as set forth in the property management agreement.

Property and asset management expenses remained relatively constant, increasing $44,000, or 1%, to $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $4.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. Of this amount, property management expenses remained constant at $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 and asset management expenses increased to $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, from $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily due to an increase in asset management fees related to 33 new properties acquired subsequent to March 31, 2010.

Acquisition Related Expenses. Acquisition related expenses were $362,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011. We made no real estate acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2010 and no acquisition related expenses were recorded. The increase in acquisition related expenses is a result of the purchase of two properties and costs incurred related to potential future acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Depreciation and Amortization Expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $1.0 million, or 5%, to $22.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $21.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was primarily related to depreciation and amortization on 33 new properties acquired subsequent to March 31, 2010.

Equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures and other income. Equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures and other income increased $72,000, or 75%, to $168,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $96,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was primarily due to recording a smaller loss for one of our joint ventures during the three months ended March 31, 2011, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Gain on sale of marketable securities During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we recorded a gain on sale of marketable securities of $7.9 million in connection with the sale of two CMBS bonds, as discussed in Note 7 to our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. No similar transactions occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased $1.3 million, or 5%, to $26.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared to $25.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2010, primarily due to an increase of $117.0 million in the average outstanding debt balance resulting from borrowings incurred to acquire 33 properties subsequent to March 31, 2010.

Funds From Operations and Modified Funds from Operations

Funds From Operations (“FFO”) is a non-GAAP financial performance measure defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) and widely recognized by investors and analysts as one measure of operating performance of a real estate company. The FFO calculation excludes items such as real estate depreciation and amortization, and gains and losses on the sale of real estate assets. Depreciation and amortization as applied in accordance with GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time. Since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, it is management’s view, and we believe the view of many industry investors and analysts, that the presentation of operating results for real estate companies by using the cost accounting method alone is insufficient. In addition, FFO excludes gains and losses from the sale of real estate, which we believe provides management and investors with a helpful additional measure of the performance of our real estate portfolio, as it allows for comparisons, year to year, that reflect the impact on operations from trends in items such as occupancy rates, rental rates, operating costs, general and administrative expenses, and interest costs.

In addition to FFO, we use Modified Funds From Operations (“MFFO”) as a non-GAAP supplemental financial performance measure to evaluate the operating performance of our real estate portfolio. MFFO, as defined by our company, excludes from FFO acquisition related costs and real estate impairment charges, which are required to be expensed in accordance with GAAP. In evaluating the performance of our portfolio over time, management employs business models and analyses that differentiate the costs to acquire investments from the investments’ revenues and expenses. Management believes that excluding acquisition costs from MFFO provides investors with supplemental performance information that is consistent with the performance models and analysis used by management, and provides investors a view of the performance of our portfolio over time, including after the Company ceases to acquire properties on a frequent and regular basis. MFFO also allows for a comparison of the performance of our portfolio with other REITs that are not currently engaging in acquisitions, as well as a comparison of our performance with that of other non-traded REITs, as MFFO, or an equivalent measure, is routinely reported by non-traded REITs, and we believe often used by analysts and investors for comparison purposes.

Additionally, impairment charges are items that management does not include in its evaluation of the operating performance of its real estate investments, as management believes that the impact of these items will be reflected over time through changes in rental income or other related costs. As many other non-traded REITs exclude impairments in reporting their MFFO, we believe that our calculation and reporting of MFFO will also assist investors and analysts in comparing our performance versus other non-traded REITs.

For all of these reasons, we believe FFO and MFFO, in addition to net income and cash flows from operating activities, as defined by GAAP, are helpful supplemental performance measures and useful in understanding the various ways in which our management evaluates the performance of our real estate portfolio over time. However, not all REITs calculate FFO and MFFO the same way, so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful. FFO and MFFO should not be considered as alternatives to net income or to cash flows from operating activities, and are not intended to be used as a liquidity measure indicative of cash flow available to fund our cash needs.

MFFO may provide investors with a useful indication of our future performance, particularly after our acquisition stage, and of the sustainability of our current distribution policy. However, because MFFO excludes acquisition expenses, which are an important component in an analysis of the historical performance of a property, MFFO should not be construed as a historic performance measure. Neither the SEC, NAREIT, nor any other regulatory body has evaluated the acceptability of the exclusions contemplated to adjust FFO in order to calculate MFFO and its use as a non-GAAP financial performance measure.

Our calculation of FFO and MFFO, and reconciliation to net income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, is presented in the table below for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 (in thousands). FFO and MFFO are influenced by the timing of acquisitions and the operating performance of our real estate investments.

Set forth below is additional information that may be helpful in assessing our operating results:

•

In March 2011, we sold two CMBS bonds for $20.2 million, and realized a gain on the sale of $7.9 million, of which $7.7 million had previously been recorded in other comprehensive income. No sales of CMBS bonds occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

•

In order to recognize revenues on a straight-line basis over the terms of the respective leases, we recognized additional revenue by straight-lining rental revenue of $2.7 million and $2.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In addition, related to our unconsolidated joint ventures, straight-line revenue of $8,000 and $12,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, is included in equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures.

Amortization of deferred financing costs and amortization of fair value adjustments of mortgage notes assumed totaled $2.2 million and $2.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively. In addition, related to our unconsolidated joint ventures, amortization of deferred financing costs and amortization of fair value adjustments of mortgage notes assumed totaled $135,000 and $252,000, which is included in equity in income of unconsolidated joint ventures for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

Distributions

On November 10, 2010, our board of directors authorized a daily distribution, based on 365 days in the calendar year, of $0.001712523 per share (which equates to 6.25% on an annualized basis calculated at the current rate, assuming a $10.00 per share purchase price, and an annualized return of approximately 7.76%, based on the most recent estimate of the value of our shares of $8.05 per share) for stockholders of record as of the close of business on each day of the period, commencing on January 1, 2011 and ending on March 31, 2011. On March 7, 2011, our board of directors authorized a daily distribution, based on 365 days in the calendar year, of $0.001712523 per share (which equates to 6.25% on an annualized basis calculated at the current rate, assuming a $10.00 per share purchase price, and an annualized return of approximately 7.76%, based on the most recent estimate of the value of the Company’s shares of $8.05 per share) for stockholders of record as of the close of business on each day of the period, commencing on April 1, 2011 and ending on June 30, 2011.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, respectively, we paid distributions of $32.2 million and $31.6 million, including $14.9 million and $15.5 million, respectively, through the issuance of shares pursuant to our DRIP Offering. Our distributions for the three months ended March 31, 2011 were funded by net cash provided by operating activities of $26.1 million, return of capital from unconsolidated joint ventures of $1.0 million, and proceeds from the sale of marketable securities of $5.1 million. Our distributions for the three months ended March 31, 2010 were funded by net cash provided by operating activities of $26.2 million and borrowings of $5.4 million.

Share Redemptions

Our share redemption program provides that we will redeem shares of our common stock from requesting stockholders, subject to the terms and conditions of the share redemption program. On November 10, 2009, our Board of Directors voted to temporarily suspend our share redemption program other than for requests made upon the death of a stockholder. Effective August 1, 2010, our board of directors reinstated our share redemption program and adopted several amendments to the program. In particular, during any calendar year, we will not redeem in excess of 3% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year and the cash available for redemption is limited to the proceeds from the sale of shares pursuant to our DRIP Offering during such calendar year. In addition, we will redeem shares on a quarterly basis, at the rate of approximately one-fourth of 3% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year (including shares requested for redemption upon the death of a stockholder). Funding for redemptions for each quarter will be limited to the net proceeds we receive from the sale of shares, during such quarter, from our DRIP Offering.

Pursuant to the share redemption program, as amended, the redemption price per share is dependent on the length of time the shares are held and the most recently disclosed Estimated Share Value. As of March 31, 2011, the Estimated Share Value is $8.05 per share, as determined by the Board of Directors on June 22, 2010. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we received valid redemption requests pursuant to the share redemption program, as amended, relating to approximately 4.8 million shares, and requests relating to approximately 1.5 million shares were redeemed for $12.2 million at an average price of $7.86 per share subsequent to March 31, 2011. The remaining redemption requests relating to approximately 3.3 million shares went unfulfilled, including those requests unfulfilled and resubmitted from a previous period. Requests for redemptions that are not fulfilled in a period may be resubmitted by stockholders in a subsequent period. Unfulfilled requests for redemptions are not carried over automatically to subsequent redemption periods. A valid redemption request is one that complies with the applicable requirements and guidelines of our share redemption program, as amended, and set forth in our Form 8-K filed on June 22, 2010. We have funded and intend to continue funding share redemptions with proceeds from our DRIP Offering.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

General

Our principal demands for funds are for the payment of principal and interest on our outstanding indebtedness, operating and property maintenance expenses and distributions to and redemptions by our stockholders. We may also acquire additional real estate and real estate-related investments. Generally, cash needs for payments of interest, operating and property maintenance expenses and distributions to stockholders will be generated from cash flows from operations from our real estate assets. The sources of our operating cash flows are primarily driven by the rental income received from leased properties, interest income earned on mortgage notes receivable, marketable securities and on our cash balances and by distributions from our unconsolidated joint ventures. We expect to utilize the available cash from issuance of shares under the DRIP Offering, available borrowings on our Credit Facility and Repurchase Agreement and possible additional financings and refinancings to repay our outstanding indebtedness and complete possible future property acquisitions.

As of March 31, 2011, we had cash and cash equivalents of $34.2 million and available borrowings of $222.4 million under our Credit Facility. Additionally, as of March 31, 2011, we had unencumbered properties with a gross book value of $736.5 million, including assets that are part of the Credit Facility’s unencumbered borrowing base, that may be used as collateral to secure additional financing in future periods or as additional collateral to facilitate the refinancing of current mortgage debt as it becomes due, subject to certain covenants and leverage and borrowing base restrictions related to our Credit Facility.

Short-term Liquidity and Capital Resources

We expect to meet our short-term liquidity requirements through cash provided by property operations. As of March 31, 2011, we had a total of $164.0 million of debt maturing within the next 12 months, including $81.0 million of the Fixed Rate Debt, $38.3 million of the Variable Rate Debt, and $44.7 million outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement. In addition, as of March 31, 2011, we had outstanding purchase agreements to purchase 18 properties for an aggregate purchase price of $57.2 million, exclusive of closing costs, which we expect to fund with proceeds from our Credit Facility. Of the $164.0 million of debt maturing in the next 12 months, $78.7 million, including amounts outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement, contain extension options, and $38.7 million includes hyper-amortization provisions that would require us to apply 100% of the rents received from the properties securing the debt to pay interest due on the loans, reserves, if any, and principal reductions until such balance is paid in full through the extended maturity dates, all of which will adversely affect our available cash for distributions should we exercise these options. If we are unable to extend, finance, or refinance the amounts maturing of $164.0 million, we expect to pay down any remaining amounts through a combination of the use of cash provided by property operations, available borrowings on our Credit Facility, under which $222.4 million was available as of March 31, 2011, borrowings on our unencumbered properties, proceeds from our DRIP Offering, and/or the strategic sale of real estate and related assets. In addition, we may elect to extend the maturity dates of the mortgage notes in accordance with the hyper-amortization provisions, if available. If we are able to refinance our existing debt as it matures it may be at rates and terms that are less favorable than our existing debt or, if we elect to extend the maturity dates of the mortgage notes in accordance with the hyper-amortization provisions, the interest rates charged to us will be higher than each respective current interest rate, each of which may adversely affect our results of operations and the distributions we are able to pay to our investors. The Credit Facility and certain notes payable contain customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants, including requirements for minimum net worth, debt service coverage ratios and leverage ratios, in addition to variable rate debt and investment restrictions. These covenants may limit our ability to incur additional debt and the amount of available borrowings on our Credit Facility.

Long-term Liquidity and Capital Resources

We expect to meet our long-term liquidity requirements through proceeds from secured or unsecured financings from banks and other lenders, borrowing on our Credit Facility, available cash from issuance of shares under the DRIP Offering, the selective and strategic sale of properties and net cash flows from operations. We expect that our primary uses of capital will be for property and other asset acquisitions and the payment of tenant improvements, operating expenses, including debt service payments on any outstanding indebtedness, and distributions and redemptions to our stockholders.

We expect that substantially all cash generated from operations will be used to pay distributions to our stockholders after certain capital expenditures, including tenant improvements and leasing commissions, are paid at the properties; however, we may use other sources to fund distributions as necessary, including the proceeds of our DRIP Offering, cash advanced to us by our advisor, borrowing on our Credit Facility and/or borrowings in anticipation of future cash flow. To the extent that cash flows from operations are lower due to lower than expected returns on the properties or we elect to retain cash flows from operations to make additional real estate investments or reduce our outstanding debt, distributions paid to our stockholders may be lower. We expect that substantially all net cash resulting from the DRIP Offering or debt financing will be used to fund acquisitions, for certain capital expenditures identified at acquisition, for repayments of outstanding debt, or for any distributions to stockholders in excess of cash flows from operations and redemption of shares from our stockholders.

As of March 31, 2011, we had received and accepted subscriptions for 219.9 million shares of common stock in the Offerings for gross proceeds of $2.2 billion. As of March 31, 2011, we had redeemed a total of 10.3 million shares of common stock for a cost of $94.1 million. Redemption request relating to approximately 3.3 million shares that were received during the three months ended March 31, 2011 went unfulfilled.

As of March 31, 2011, we had $1.7 billion of debt outstanding, consisting of (i) $1.5 billion of Fixed Rate Debt, which includes $122.5 million of variable rate debt swapped to fixed rates, (ii) $38.3 million of Variable Rate Debt, (iii) $127.1 million outstanding under the Credit Facility, which includes $111.1 million swapped to a fixed rate, and (iv) $44.7 million outstanding under the Repurchase Agreement. See Note 9 to our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for additional terms of the Credit Facility and Repurchase Agreement. The Fixed Rate Debt has annual interest rates ranging from 4.46% to 7.22%, with a weighted average interest rate of 5.88%, and matures on various dates from April 2011 through August 2031. The Variable Rate Debt has annual interest rates that range from one-month LIBOR plus 200 to 325 basis points, and various maturity dates in September 2011. Additionally, the ratio of debt to total gross real estate and related assets net of gross intangible lease liabilities, as of March 31, 2011, was 50% and the weighted average years to maturity was 4.8 years.

As of March 31, 2011, the interest rate in effect for Revolving Loans outstanding under the Credit Facility was the Bank of America prime rate plus 250 basis points and the interest rate in effect for the Term Loan outstanding under the Credit Facility was 4.94%. Additionally, as of March 31, 2011, the weighted average interest rate in effect for the Repurchase Agreement was 1.46%.

Our contractual obligations as of March 31, 2011 were as follows (in thousands):

		Payments due by period(1) (2) (3)
						Less Than 1												More Than 5
		Total				Year				1-3 Years				4-5 Years				Years

Total		$	2,215,772			$	262,271			$	516,750			$	718,373			$	718,378

Our charter prohibits us from incurring debt that would cause our borrowings to exceed the greater of 60% of our gross assets, valued at the greater of the aggregate cost (before depreciation and other non-cash reserves) or fair value of all assets owned by us, unless approved by a majority of our independent directors and disclosed to our stockholders in our next quarterly report.

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we entered into agreements with unaffiliated third party sellers, to purchase a 100% interest in 18 properties, subject to meeting certain criteria, for an aggregate purchase price of $57.2 million, exclusive of closing costs. As of March 31, 2011, we had $1.2 million of property escrow deposits held by escrow agents in connection with these future property acquisitions, of which $50,000 will be forfeited if the transactions are not completed. As of May 11, 2011, we had purchased 17 of these properties for $48.6 million, exclusive of closing costs, and no escrow deposits were forfeited.

Cash Flow Analysis

Three Months Ended March 31, 2011 Compared to the Three Months Ended March 31, 2010

Operating Activities. Net cash provided by operating activities remained relatively constant, decreasing $119,000, or less than 1%, to $26.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $26.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in net income of $7.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to March 31, 2010, which was offset by a non-cash adjustment from a gain on the sale of marketable securities of $7.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Investing Activities. Net cash used in investing activities increased $556,000, or 165%, to $892,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $336,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2010. The increase was primarily related to the acquisition of two properties for a total purchase price of $8.7 million, combined with an increase in the additions to real estate assets of $13.0 million resulting from a build out at one of our properties during the three months ended March 31, 2011. These increases were offset by $20.2 million of proceeds received from the sale of marketable securities during the three months ended March 31, 2011. No properties were acquired and no marketable securities were sold during the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Financing Activities. Net cash used in financing activities increased $15.7 million, or 74%, to $36.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to $21.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010. This increase was primarily due to an increase in cash used for the redemptions of common stock of $9.1 million combined with an increase in cash used to repay mortgage notes payable and the Repurchase Agreement borrowings of $25.6 million and $17.7 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010. These amounts were partially offset with an increase in proceeds from our Credit Facility of $29.1 million and an increase in proceeds from the Repurchase Agreement of $8.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2010.

Election as a REIT

We are taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. To maintain our qualification as a REIT, we must continue to meet certain requirements relating to our organization, sources of income, nature of assets, distributions of income to our stockholders and recordkeeping. As a REIT, we generally are not subject to federal income tax on taxable income that we distribute to our stockholders so long as we distribute at least 90% of our annual taxable income (computed with regard to the dividends paid deduction excluding net capital gains).

If we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT for any reason in a taxable year and applicable relief provisions do not apply, we will be subject to tax, including any applicable alternative minimum tax, on our taxable income at regular corporate rates. We will not be able to deduct distributions paid to our stockholders in any year in which we fail to maintain our qualification as a REIT. We also will be disqualified for the four taxable years following the year during which qualification was lost unless we are entitled to relief under specific statutory provisions. Such an event could materially adversely affect our net income and net cash available for distribution to stockholders. However, we believe that we are organized and operate in such a manner as to qualify for treatment as a REIT for federal income tax purposes. No provision for federal income taxes has been made in our accompanying condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements. We are subject to certain state and local taxes related to the operations of properties in certain locations, which have been provided for in our accompanying condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements.

Inflation

We are exposed to inflation risk as income from long-term leases is the primary source of our cash flows from operations. There are provisions in certain of our tenant leases that are intended to protect us from, and mitigate the risk of, the impact of inflation. These provisions include rent steps and clauses enabling us to receive payment of additional rent calculated as a percentage of the tenants’ gross sales above pre-determined thresholds. In addition, most of our leases require the tenant to pay all or a majority of the operating expenses, including real estate taxes, special assessments and sales and use taxes, utilities, insurance and building repairs, related to the property. However, due to the long-term nature of the leases, the leases may not re-set frequently enough to adequately offset the effects of inflation.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our accounting policies have been established to conform to GAAP. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to use judgment in the application of accounting policies, including making estimates and assumptions. These judgments affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the dates of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods. If our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to the various transactions had been different, it is possible that different accounting policies would have been applied, thus resulting in a different presentation of the financial statements. Additionally, other companies may utilize different estimates that may impact comparability of our results of operations to those of companies in similar businesses. We consider our critical accounting policies to be the following:

	•		Investment in and Valuation of Real Estate and Related Assets;
	•		Allocation of Purchase Price of Real Estate and Related Assets;
	•		Investment in Direct Financing Leases;
	•		Investment in Mortgage Notes Receivable;
	•		Investment in Marketable Securities;
	•		Investment in Unconsolidated Joint Ventures;
	•		Revenue Recognition;
	•		Income Taxes; and
	•		Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.

A complete description of such policies and our considerations is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, and our critical accounting policies have not changed during the three months ended March 31, 2011. The information included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010, and related notes thereto.

Commitments and Contingencies

We are subject to certain contingencies and commitments with regard to certain transactions. Refer to Note 11 to our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements accompanying this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further explanations.

Related-Party Transactions and Agreements

We have entered into agreements with Cole Advisor II and its affiliates, whereby we have paid, and expect to continue to pay, certain fees or reimbursements of certain expenses to our advisor or its affiliates for acquisition and advisory fees and expenses, financing coordination fees, organization and offering costs, sales commissions, dealer manager fees, asset and property management fees and expenses, leasing fees and reimbursement of certain operating costs. See Note 12 to our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of the various related-party transactions, agreements and fees.

Subsequent Events

Certain events occurred subsequent to March 31, 2011 through the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Refer to Note 16 to our condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further explanation. Such events include:

	•		Issuance of shares of common stock through our DRIP Offering;
	•		Redemption of shares of common stock;
	•		Real estate acquisitions;
	•		Notes payable and line of credit;
	•		Declaration of distributions; and
	•		Sale of marketable securities and repayment of Repurchase Agreement.

New Accounting Pronouncements

There are no accounting pronouncements that have been issued but not yet adopted by us that will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had no material off-balance sheet arrangements that had or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.

Item 3.		Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

In connection with property acquisitions, we have obtained variable rate debt financing to fund certain property acquisitions, and therefore we are exposed to changes in LIBOR and a bank’s prime rate. Our objectives in managing interest rate risk will be to limit the impact of interest rate changes on operations and cash flows, and to lower overall borrowing costs. To achieve these objectives we will borrow primarily at interest rates with the lowest margins available and, in some cases, with the ability to convert variable interest rates to fixed rates. We have entered and expect to continue to enter into derivative financial instruments such as interest rate swaps and caps in order to mitigate our interest rate risk on a given financial instrument. We have not entered, and do not intend to enter, into derivative or interest rate transactions for speculative purposes. We may enter into rate lock arrangements to lock interest rates on future borrowings.

As of March 31, 2011, $54.3 million of the $1.7 billion outstanding on notes payable, the Credit Facility, and the Repurchase Agreement was subject to variable interest rates. Revolving Loan amounts due under the Credit Facility bore interest at Bank of America’s prime rate plus 250 basis points. The remaining variable rate debt bore interest at the one-month LIBOR plus 200 to 325 basis points. As of March 31, 2011, an increase of 50 basis points in interest rates would result in a change in interest expense of $272,000 per year, assuming all of our derivatives remain effective hedges.

As of March 31, 2011, we had six interest rate swap agreements outstanding, which mature on various dates from September 2011 through March 2016, with an aggregate notional amount under the swap agreements of $233.6 million and an aggregate net fair value of ($3.4) million. The fair value of these interest rate swaps is dependent upon existing market interest rates and swap spreads. As of March 31, 2011, an increase of 50 basis points in interest rates would result in an increase to the fair value of these interest rate swaps of $2.4 million. These interest rate swaps were designated as hedging instruments.

We do not have any foreign operations and thus we are not exposed to foreign currency fluctuations.

Item 4.		Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As required by Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), we, under the supervision and with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures, as of March 31, 2011, were effective in all material respects to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the rules and forms promulgated under the Exchange Act, and is accumulated and communicated to management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

No change occurred in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d -15(f) of the Exchange Act) in connection with the foregoing evaluations that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II
OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1.		Legal Proceedings

In the ordinary course of business, we may become subject to litigation or claims. We are not aware of any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to our business.

Item 1A.		Risk Factors

There have been no material changes from the risk factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Item 2.		Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

As of March 31, 2011, we had accepted subscriptions for 219,927,268 shares (including shares sold pursuant to our DRIP Offering and net of redemptions) of common stock in the Offerings, resulting in gross proceeds of $2.2 billion, out of which we paid $171.8 million in selling commissions and dealer manager fees, $68.5 million in acquisition fees, $20.9 million in finance coordination fees, and $16.3 million in organization and offering costs to our advisor or its affiliates. We paid no selling commissions, dealer manager fees or organization and offering costs to Cole Capital during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Total net offering proceeds from the Offerings are thus $1.9 billion as of March 31, 2011. With the net offering proceeds and indebtedness, we acquired $3.5 billion in real estate and related assets. As of May 11, 2011, we had sold an aggregate of approximately 220.6 million shares in our Offerings for gross offering proceeds of $2.2 billion (including shares sold pursuant to our DRIP Offering). We did not sell any unregistered equity securities during the three months ended March 31, 2011.

Our board of directors has adopted a share redemption program that enables our stockholders who hold their shares for more than one year to sell their shares to us in limited circumstances. On November 10, 2009, our board of directors voted to temporarily suspend our share redemption program other than for requests made upon the death of a stockholder, which we will continue to accept. On June 22, 2010, our board of directors reinstated our share redemption program, effective August 1, 2010, and adopted several amendments to the program. Under the terms of the revised share redemption program, during any calendar year, we will redeem shares on a quarterly basis, at the rate of approximately one-fourth of 3% of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the prior calendar year (including shares requested for redemption upon the death of a stockholder). Funding for redemptions for each quarter are limited to the net proceeds we receive from the sale of shares, in that quarter, under our DRIP Offering. These limits might prevent us from accommodating all redemption requests made in any fiscal quarter or in any twelve month period. Our board of directors also reserves the right, in its sole discretion at any time, and from time to time, to reject any request for redemption for any reason.

The provisions of the share redemption program in no way limit our ability to repurchase shares from stockholders by any other legally available means for any reason that our board of directors, in its discretion, deems to be in our best interest. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, we redeemed shares as follows:

										Total Number of Shares				Maximum Number of
		Total Number								Purchased as Part				Shares that May Yet Be
		of Shares				Average Price				of Publicly Announced				Purchased Under the
		Redeemed				Paid per Share				Plans or Programs				Plans or Programs
January 2011			1,510,780			$	7.86				1,510,780				(1	)
February 2011			—			$	—				—				(1	)
March 2011			3,188			$	7.86				3,188				(1	)
