Following the Go Shop Period End Time, the Company and its subsidiaries and representatives may not solicit, provide information or enter into discussions concerning proposals relating to alternative business combination transactions, subject to certain limited exceptions set forth in the Merger Agreement03.

The Merger Agreement also provides that prior to the Stockholder Approval (as defined herein), the Company’s board of directors may, under specified circumstances, make an Adverse Recommendation Change (as defined in the Merger Agreement), including withdrawing its recommendation of the Merger, subject to complying with certain conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement may be terminated under certain circumstances, including by either the Company or CMFT if the Merger has not been consummated on or before 11:59 p.m. New York time on May 30, 2021 (the “Outside Date”), if a final and non-appealable order is entered permanently restraining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, if the Stockholder Approval has not been obtained at the Stockholders Meeting (as defined in the Merger Agreement) or upon a material uncured breach of the respective obligations, covenants or agreements by the other party that would cause the closing conditions in the Merger Agreement not to be satisfied.

In addition, the Company may terminate the Merger Agreement in order to enter into an “Alternative Acquisition Agreement” with respect to a “Superior Proposal” (each as defined in the Merger Agreement) at any time prior to receipt by the Company of the Stockholder Approval pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions of the

Merger Agreement. The Company may also terminate the Merger Agreement if CMFT amends (i) the CCIT II Merger Agreement to increase the exchange ratio set forth therein to 1.562 shares (or more) of CMFT Common Stock for each share of CCIT II common stock or (ii) the CCPT V Merger Agreement to increase the exchange ratio set forth therein to 2.733 shares (or more) of CMFT Common Stock for each share of CCPT V common stock.

CMFT may terminate the Merger Agreement at any time prior to the receipt of the Stockholder Approval, in certain limited circumstances, including upon (i) an Adverse Recommendation Change, (ii) a tender offer or exchange offer that is commenced which the Company’s board of directors fails to recommend against or (iii) a breach by the Company, in any material respect, of its obligations under the go shop or no solicitation provisions set forth in the Merger Agreement.

If the Merger Agreement is terminated because the Merger was not consummated before the Outside Date or because the Stockholder Approval was not obtained, and (i) an Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement) has been publicly announced or otherwise communicated to the Company’s stockholders prior to the Stockholders Meeting and (ii) within 12 months after the date of such termination (A) the Company consummates or enters into an agreement (that is thereafter consummated) in respect of an Acquisition Proposal for 50% or more of the Company’s equity or assets or (B) the Company’s board of directors recommends or fails to recommend against an Acquisition Proposal structured as a tender or exchange offer for 50% or more of the Company’s equity and such Acquisition Proposal is actually consummated, then the Company must pay CMFT a termination fee of $710,000 and up to $130,000 as reimbursement for CMFT’s Expenses (as defined in the Merger Agreement).

If the Merger Agreement is terminated in connection with the Company’s acceptance of a Superior Proposal or making an Adverse Recommendation Change, then the Company must pay to CMFT a termination fee of (i) $710,000 and (ii) up to $130,000 as reimbursement for CMFT’s Expenses if such termination occurs more than ten business days after the Go Shop Period End Time (or, in the event of timely delivery to the Company of a CCIT III Change Notice (as defined in the Merger Agreement), the end of the specified period for negotiations with the Company following receipt of such CCIT III Change Notice in accordance with the Merger Agreement). If such termination occurs no later than ten business days after the Go Shop Period End Time (or, in the event of timely delivery to the Company of a CCIT III Change Notice, the end of the specified period for negotiations with the Company following receipt of such CCIT III Change Notice in accordance with the Merger Agreement), then the Company does not have to pay a termination fee of $710,000.

The obligation of each party to consummate the Merger is subject to a number of customary conditions, including receipt of the approval of the Merger (and of an amendment to the Company charter that is required to consummate the Merger) by holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the CCIT III Common Stock entitled to vote thereon (the “Stockholder Approval”), delivery of certain documents and legal opinions, the truth and correctness of the representations and warranties of the parties (subject to the materiality standards contained in the Merger Agreement), the effectiveness of the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed by CMFT to register the shares of the CMFT Common Stock to be issued as consideration in the Merger, and the absence of a CCIT III Material Adverse Effect or CMFT Material Adverse Effect (as each term is defined in the Merger Agreement).

The Merger is not subject to a financing condition. Until the effective time of the Merger, each of the Company and CMFT are permitted to declare and pay distributions in an amount less than or equal to an annual rate of five percent of its net asset value as of June 30, 2020, ratably over the calendar year.

The Merger Agreement provides that the CMFT board of directors will take such action as necessary to cause the Independent Directors (as defined in the charter of the Company) serving as members of the Company’s board of directors who do not otherwise serve on the CMFT board of directors to be elected to the CMFT board of directors effective as of the effective time of the Merger.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement is only a summary, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the Merger Agreement has been included to provide stockholders with information regarding its terms and conditions, and is not intended to provide

any factual information about the Company or CMFT. The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement have been made solely for the benefit of the parties to the Merger Agreement, and are not intended as statements of fact to be relied upon by the Company’s stockholders, but rather as a way of allocating the risk between the parties to the Merger Agreement in the event the statements therein prove to be inaccurate. Statements made in the Merger Agreement have been modified or qualified by certain confidential disclosures that were made between the parties in connection with the negotiation of the Merger Agreement, which disclosures are not reflected in the Merger Agreement attached hereto. Moreover, such statements may no longer be true as of a given date and may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by stockholders. Accordingly, stockholders should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or CMFT. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures. The Company acknowledges that, notwithstanding the inclusion of the foregoing cautionary statements, it is responsible for considering whether additional specific disclosures of material information regarding material contractual provisions are required to make the statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K not misleading.

Termination Agreement

Concurrently with the entry into the Merger Agreement, the Company and Cole Corporate Income Management III, LLC (the “Advisor”) entered into a letter agreement (the “Termination Agreement”). Pursuant to the Termination Agreement, the Advisory Agreement, dated as of September 22, 2016, by and between the Company and the Advisor (as amended, the “Advisory Agreement”) will be terminated at the effective time of the Merger. The Advisor also waived any “Subordinated Performance Fee” or “Disposition Fee” (each as defined in the Advisory Agreement) it otherwise would be entitled to pursuant to the Advisory Agreement related to the Merger. In the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, the Termination Agreement will be automatically terminated.

The foregoing description of the Termination Agreement is only a summary, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Termination Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
