There are risks associated with an investment in American Realty Capital New York Recovery REIT, Inc. The following is a summary of these risks. A more detailed description of the associated risks is found in the prospectus.■ We have a very limited operating history and have no established financing sources. This offering is a blind pool and you
may not have the opportunity to evaluate investments prior to their purchase or prior to your investment in our common stock, which makes this investment more speculative.
■ No public market currently exists for shares of our common stock, nor may a public market ever exist and our shares are illiquid. There are limitations on ownership and transferability of our shares.
■ We are obligated to pay substantial fees to our advisor and its affiliates, including fees payable upon sale of properties, which may result in our advisor recommending riskier or more speculative investments. We are depending on our advisor to select investments and conduct our operations. Adverse changes in the financial condition of our advisor could adversely affect us.
■ If we, through our advisor, are unable to find suitable investments, we may not be able to achieve our objectives or pay distributions. If we are unable to raise substantial funds, we will be limited in the number and types of investments, our ability to diversify our investments will be limited.
■ Properties may be adversely affected by the current economic downturn, as well as economic cycles and risks inherent to the New York market. The offering may be subject to risks associated with the significant dislocations and liquidity disruptions currently occurring in the United States credit markets.
■ There are substantial conflicts among the interests of our investors, our interests and the interests of our advisor, sponsor, dealer manager and our respective affiliates regarding compensation, investment opportunities and management resources.
Risk Factors
3NY Recovery REIT
■ There are substantial conflicts among the interests of our investors, our interests and the interests of our advisor, sponsor, dealer manager and our respective affiliates regarding compensation, investment opportunities and management resources.
■ Our investment objectives and strategies may be changed without shareholder consent.■ There are significant risks associated with maintaining a high level of leverage as permitted under our charter. If we
incur substantial debt, it may hinder our ability to pay distributions to our shareholders or could decrease the value of your investment if income on, or the value of, the property securing the debt falls.
■ Distributions are not guaranteed. We may not be able to pay or maintain cash distributions and they are subject to change at any time. Payment of fees to our advisor as well as the payment of operating expenses will reduce cash available for distributions. We may pay distributions from the net proceeds of our offering, from our borrowings, or from other sources and we have paid a portion of our distribution from the net proceeds of our offering. Cumulative distributions exceed cumulative earnings.
■ Our share repurchase program is subject to numerous restrictions, may be cancelled at anytime and should not be relied upon as a means of liquidity.
■ Our failure to qualify or continue to qualify to be treated as a REIT would result in higher taxes. Our dealer manager has not conducted an independent review of this prospectus.
■ We may be deemed to be an investment company under the Investment Company Act and thus subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act.
■ The management of multiple REITs by our executive officers and officers of our advisor may significantly reduce the amount of time spent on activities related to us and cause other conflicts of interest, which may cause operating results to suffer.
■ We will compete for investors with other programs of our sponsor.

Why Invest in Commercial Real Estate?
Potential Tax Depreciation 1
Upside Potential
Not Publicly Traded
Potential Hedge Against Inflation
Potential Current Income
Investing in commercial real estate, such as a REIT, may provide shareholders with certain tax advantages. Such tax advantages may result from depreciation expense, amongst other factors, that impact a REIT’s taxable income, which could provide a tax deferral for shareholders. Investors should consult with tax professionals as tax results may vary based on individual circumstances. Distributions will not be qualified dividends for tax purposes. Certain tax risks are present with an investment in Company. Our failure to qualify or continue to qualify to be treated as a REIT would result in higher taxes.
