NEW YORK, April 2, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- American Realty Capital Properties, Inc. ("ARCP") (NASDAQ: ARCP) announced today that it has received $275.0 million of new commitments from three new lenders under its senior corporate credit facility to allow for $3.15 billion of total financing under its credit facilities. 

With these additional commitments to its senior facility, ARCP now has $729.2 million of aggregate available borrowing capacity in the form of undrawn commitments.

David S. Kay, President of ARCP, noted, "We are pleased to have added three new banks to our lending group under our senior corporate facility, increasing total commitments by $275.0 million, all produced by the execution of our robust capital markets team. With total financings of as much as $3.15 billion under our credit facilities, we expect to have ample flexibility to fund our portfolio's expansion through singular and portfolio acquisitions. The increased commitments to our senior facility are a direct reflection of the credit quality of our portfolio, our lack of sensitivity to movements in interest rates, the lengthening of our debt maturities and our recent capital transactions which have increased our unencumbered assets, lowered our cost of debt and delevered our balance sheet. The greater financing availability afforded to us by these additional commitments is significant in our growth into the leading REIT."
