NEW YORK, Sept. 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Bernstein Liebhard
LLP is investigating whether the Board of Directors of American
Realty Capital Trust, Inc. ("ARCT" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: ARCT)
breached its fiduciary duty to its shareholders in agreeing to sell
ARCT to Realty Income Corporation (NYSE:O).

Under the terms of the agreement, ARCT shareholders will receive
a fixed exchange ratio of 0.2874 Realty Income Corporation shares
for each share they own. The investigation is focused on the
potential unfairness of the price to ARCT shareholders and the
process by which the ARCT Board of Directors considered and
approved the transaction.
