PHOENIX, July 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The Board of
Directors of American Realty Capital Properties, Inc. (NASDAQ:
ARCP) ("ARCP" or the "Company") has scheduled the Company's 2015
Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") for
Tuesday, September 29, 2015.
Stockholders of record as of the close of business on Thursday, August 6, 2015 will be entitled to
notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. Because the
September 29, 2015 Annual Meeting
date is more than 30 days after the anniversary of the Company's
2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, the deadline for submitting
stockholder proposals made pursuant to Rule 14a-8 ("Rule 14a-8") of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and for non-Rule
14a-8 stockholder proposals has been extended.
For Rule 14a-8 proposals, the Company has determined that
Wednesday, July 29, 2015 is a
reasonable deadline by which it can receive Rule 14a-8 proposals
from stockholders and meet its anticipated schedule for printing
and sending its proxy materials for the Annual Meeting.
Accordingly, the Company intends to view any proposals received
after July 29, 2015 as not having
been received within the time period set forth in Rule 14a-8.
For stockholder proposals not submitted pursuant to Rule 14a-8,
the stockholder must give timely notice thereof in writing and in
accordance with the requirements set forth in the Company's bylaws
to the Company's Secretary not later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on Monday, July 20, 2015. Any proposal submitted
outside this timeframe, other than a proposal submitted pursuant to
Rule 14a-8, will not be considered timely and will be excluded from
consideration at the Annual Meeting.
Proposals and notices of proposals should be mailed to: American
Realty Capital Properties, Inc., 2325 E. Camelback Road, Suite
1100, Phoenix, AZ 85016, Attn:
Secretary.
