Weighted average interest rate of 3.7% with 84.2% of debt at fixed interest rates. Completed the disposition of the Company’s non - core Sanofi office asset, recycling $261 million of accretive gross proceeds for the CIM Transaction.

21 The Necessity Retail REIT ® Where America Shops | www.necessityretailreit.com Disclaimers Disclaimers This presentation includes estimated projections of future operating results or activities such as leasing activity, among other things . These projections were not prepared in accordance with published guidelines of the SEC or the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants for preparation and presentation of financial projections . This information is not fact and should not be relied upon as being necessarily indicative of future results ; the projections were prepared in good faith by management and are based on numerous assumptions that may prove to be wrong . Important factors that may affect actual results and cause the projections to not be achieved include, but are not limited to, risks and uncertainties relating to the company and other factors described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10 - K for the year ended December 31 , 2021 , the Company's subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10 - Q and in future filings with the SEC . The projections also reflect assumptions as to certain business decisions that are subject to change . As a result, actual results may differ materially from those contained in the estimates . Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the estimates will be realized . The industry in which we operate is subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to variety of factors, including those described in the “Risk Factors” and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10 - K for the year ended December 31 , 2021 , filed with the SEC on February 24 , 2022 and the Company's subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10 - Q, Current Reports on Form 8 - K and Annual Reports on Form 10 - K filed with the SEC . These and other factors could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in these publications and reports . This presentation contains estimates and information concerning the Company’s industry that is based on industry publications . The Company has not independently verified the accuracy of the data contained in these industry publications . These estimates and information involve a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to rely on or give undue weight to this information . The majority of the concessions granted to the Company's tenants as a result of the COVID - 19 pandemic are rent deferrals or temporary rent abatements with the original lease term unchanged and collection of deferred rent deemed probable . The Company's revenue recognition policy requires that it must be probable that the Company will collect virtually all of the lease payments due and does not provide for partial reserves, or the ability to assume partial recovery . In light of the COVID - 19 pandemic, the FASB and SEC agreed that for leases where the total lease cash flows will remain substantially the same or less than those after the COVID - 19 related effects, companies may choose to forgo the evaluation of the enforceable rights and obligations of the original lease contract as a practical expedient and account for rent concessions as if they were part of the enforceable rights and obligations of the parties under the existing lease contract . As a result, rental revenue used to calculate Net Income and NAREIT FFO has not been, and the Company does not expect it to be, significantly impacted by these types of deferrals . In addition, since the Company currently believes that these deferral amounts are collectable, they have been excluded from the increase in straight - line rent for AFFO purposes the amounts recognized under GAAP relating to these types of rent deferrals . Conversely, for abatements where contractual rent has been reduced, the reduction is reflected over the remaining lease term for accounting purposes but represents a permanent reduction and the Company has, accordingly, reduced its AFFO . Credit Ratings A securities rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to revision or withdrawal at any time . Each rating agency has its own methodology for assigning ratings and, accordingly, each rating should be evaluated independently of any other rating .
22 The Necessity Retail REIT ® Where America Shops | www.necessityretailreit.com Forward - Looking Statements Certain statements made in this presentation are “forward - looking statements” (as defined in Section 21E of the Exchange Act), i ncluding estimated projections of future operating results, and the impact of the proposed acquisition, and which reflect the expectations of the Company regarding future events. The forward - looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward - looking statements. Such forward - looking statements include, but are not limited to, market and other expectations, objectives, and inte ntions, as well as any other statements that are not historical facts. Our potential risks and uncertainties are presented in the section titled “Item 1A - Risk Factors” disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10 - K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed with the SEC on February 24, 2022, and the Company's subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10 - Q filed with the SEC. Forward - looking statements speak as of the date they are made and, we disclaim any obligation to update and revise statements contained in these materials to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, unless required by law. Th e following are some of the risks and uncertainties relating to us, although not all risks and uncertainties, that could caus e our actual results to differ materially from those presented in our forward - looking statements: ▪ We may be unable to acquire properties on advantageous terms or our property acquisitions may not perform as we expect. ▪ We are subject to risks associated with a pandemic, epidemic or outbreak of a contagious disease, such as the ongoing global COV ID - 19 pandemic, including negative impacts on our tenants and their respective businesses. ▪ Certain of the agreements governing our indebtedness may limit our ability to pay dividends on our Class A common stock, our Ser ies A Preferred Stock and our Series C Preferred Stock, and our ability to repurchase shares. ▪ If we are not able to generate sufficient cash from operations, we may have to reduce the amount of dividends we pay or ident ify other financing sources. ▪ Funding dividends from other sources such as borrowings, asset sales or equity issuances limits the amount we can use for pro per ty acquisitions, investments and other corporate purposes. ▪ Our operating results are affected by economic and regulatory changes that have an adverse impact on the real estate market i n g eneral. ▪ Inflation and continuing increases in the inflation rate may have an adverse effect on our investments and results from opera tio ns. ▪ In owning properties we may experience, among other things, unforeseen costs associated with complying with laws and regulati ons and other costs, potential difficulties selling properties and potential damages or losses resulting from climate change. ▪ We depend on tenants for our rental revenue and, accordingly, our rental revenue is dependent upon the success and economic v iab ility of our tenants. If a tenant or lease guarantor declares bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, we may be unable to collect balances due under relevant leases. ▪ Our tenants may not be diversified including by industry type or geographic location. ▪ The performance of our retail portfolio is linked to the market for retail space generally and factors that may impact our re tai l tenants, such as the increasing use of the Internet by retailers and consumers. ▪ Certain of our tenants are facing increased competition with other non - traditional and online grocery retailers and higher costs due to inflation and supply chain issues, which may negatively impact their businesses. ▪ We depend on our Advisor and Property Manager to provide us with executive officers, key personnel and all services required for us to conduct our operations. ▪ All of our executive officers face conflicts of interest, such as conflicts created by the terms of our agreements with our A dvi sor and compensation payable thereunder, conflicts allocating investment opportunities to us, and conflicts in allocating their time and attention to our matters. Conflicts that arise may not be resolved in our favor and could result in actions th at are adverse to us. ▪ We have long - term agreements with our Advisor and its affiliates that may be terminated only in limited circumstances. ▪ We have substantial indebtedness and may be unable to repay, refinance, restructure or extend our indebtedness as it becomes due . Increases in interest rates could increase the amount of our debt payments. We may incur additional indebtedness in the future. ▪ The stockholder rights plan adopted by our board of directors, our classified board and other aspects of our corporate struct ure and Maryland law may discourage a third party from acquiring us in a manner that might result in a premium price to our stockholders. ▪ Restrictions on share ownership contained in our charter may inhibit market activity in shares of our stock and restrict our bus iness combination opportunities. ▪ We may fail to continue to qualify as a REIT. In addition, this presentation discusses the acquisition of an 81 - property portfolio. Subsequent to the quarter ending March 31, 2022, the Company completed 79 of the 81 property acquisitions. The remaining two properties in the transaction are subject to closing conditions that are outside the Company’s control and may not be met. The transaction may not be completed on the contemplated terms, or at all, or may be delayed.
23 The Necessity Retail REIT ® Where America Shops | www.necessityretailreit.com Appendix
24 The Necessity Retail REIT ® Where America Shops | www.necessityretailreit.com Definitions AFFO : In calculating AFFO, we start with FFO, then we exclude certain income or expense items from AFFO that we consider to be more reflective of investing activities, such as non - cash income and expense items and the income and expense effects of other activities that are not a fundamental attribute of our day to day operating business plan, such as amounts related to litigation arising out of the merger with American Realty Capital - Retail Centers of America, Inc . in February 2017 (the “Merger”) . These amounts include legal costs incurred as a result of the litigation, portions of which have been and may in the future be reimbursed under insurance policies maintained by us . Insurance reimbursements are deducted from AFFO in the period of reimbursement . We believe that excluding the litigation costs and subsequent insurance reimbursements related to litigation arising out of the Merger helps to provide a better understanding of the operating performance of our business . Other income and expense items also include early extinguishment of debt and unrealized gains and losses, which may not ultimately be realized, such as gains or losses on derivative instruments and gains and losses on investments . In addition, by excluding non - cash income and expense items such as amortization of above - market and below - market leases intangibles, amortization of deferred financing costs, straight - line rent, and share - based compensation related to restricted shares and the 2018 OPP from AFFO, we believe we provide useful information regarding those income and expense items which have a direct impact on our ongoing operating performance . By providing AFFO, we believe we are presenting useful information that can be used to, among other things, assess our performance without the impact of transactions or other items that are not related to of our portfolio of properties . AFFO presented by us may not be comparable to AFFO reported by other REITs that define AFFO differently . Annualized Straight - Line Rent (“SLR”) : Straight - line rent which is annualized and calculated using the most recent available lease terms as of the period end indicated . Cash Cap Rate : For acquisitions, cash cap rate is a rate of return on a real estate investment property based on the expected, annualized cash rental income during the first year of ownership that the property will generate under its existing lease or leases . For dispositions, cash cap rate is a rate of return based on the annualized cash rental income of the property to be sold . For acquisitions, cash cap rate is calculated by dividing this annualized cash rental income the property will generate (before debt service and depreciation and after fixed costs and variable costs) by the purchase price of the property, excluding acquisition costs . For dispositions, cash cap rate is calculated by dividing the annualized cash rental income by the contract sales price for the property, excluding acquisition costs .

Adjustments for unconsolidated pa rtnerships and joint ventures are calculated to exclude the proportionate share of the non - controlling interest to arrive at FFO attributable to stockholders. Our FFO calculation complies with NAREIT's definition. Gross Asset Value: Total gross asset value of $5.0 billion, comprised of total assets of $ 4.3 billion plus accumulated depreciation and amortization of $0.7 billion as of March 31, 2022. Investment Grade: As used herein, Investment Grade includes both actual investment grade ratings of the tenant or guarantor, if available, or i mpl ied investment grade. Implied investment grade may include actual ratings of tenant parent, guarantor parent (regardless of w het her or not the parent has guaranteed the tenant’s obligation under the lease) or by using a proprietary Moody’s analytical tool, which generates an implied rating by measuring a company’s probability of default. The term “parent" for these purposes includes any entity, including any governm en tal entity, owning more than 50% of the voting stock in a tenant. Ratings information is as of March 31, 2022 and based on Annualized Straight - Line Rent. Leasing Pipeline : Leasing Pipeline includes ( i ) all leases fully executed by both parties as of April 30, 2022, but after March 31, 2022 and (ii) all leases under negotiat ion with an executed LOI by both parties as of April 30, 2022.

The tenants involved in these disputes had not recently defaulted on their rent and, prior to the second and third quarters of 2020, had recently exhibited a pattern of regular payment. Based on the tenants involved in these matters, their history of rent payments, and the impact of the pandemic on current economic conditions, the Company views the se costs as COVID - 19 - related and separable from its ordinary general and administrative expenses related to tenant defaults. The Co mpany engaged counsel in connection with these issues separate and distinct from counsel the Company typically engages for tenant defaults. The amount reflects what the Company believes to be only those incremental le gal costs above what the Company typically incurs for tenant - related dispute issues. The Company may continue to incur these COV ID - 19 related legal costs in the future. 4) Represents amounts related to deferred rent pursuant to lease negotiations which qualify for FASB relief for which rent was d efe rred but not reduced. These amounts are included in the straight - line rent receivable on the Company's consolidated balance shee t but are considered to be earned revenue attributed to the current period for which rent was deferred for purposes of AFFO as they are expected to be collected. Accordingly, when the deferred amounts are collected, the am ounts reduce AFFO. For rent abatements (including those qualified for FASB relief), where contractual rent has been reduced, the reduction is reflected over the remaining lease term for accounting purposes but represents a permanent reduction and the Company has, accordingly reduced its AFFO. 5) In the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Company recognized a charge $4.0 million for the change in value of an emb edd ed derivative (a 7.5% collar on the price of stock/units to be issued in connection with the CIM Portfolio Acquisition). Mana gem ent does not consider this non - cash charge for an embedded derivative fair value adjustment in connection with this transaction to be capital in nature and it is not part of recurring operations. Accordingly, such charge s a re excluded for AFFO purposes. includes expense related to the amortization of the Company's restricted common shares and LTI P U nits related to its multi - year outperformance agreements for all periods presented. 6) Represents dividends declared to common stockholders. In August, 2020, the Company's board of directors approved a change to the Company's dividend policy from a monthly basis to a paying dividends on a quarterly basis in arrears on the 15th day of each mo nth following a fiscal quarter. As a result, no dividend was declared in the fourth quarter of 2020. This change affected the frequency of dividend payments only and did not impact the annualized dividend rate on Class A co mmon stock of $0.85.
