1. Business
Welltower Inc., an S&P 500 company headquartered in Toledo, Ohio, is driving the transformation of health care infrastructure. The company invests with leading seniors housing operators, post-acute providers and health systems to fund the real estate and infrastructure needed to scale innovative care delivery models and improve people’s wellness and overall health care experience. Welltower™, a real estate investment trust (REIT), owns 1,486 properties in major, high-growth markets in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, consisting of seniors housing and post-acute communities and outpatient medical properties . Founded in 1970, we were the first real estate investment trust to invest exclusively in health care facilities.
2. Accounting Policies and Related Matters
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we determined that an immaterial portion of our noncontrolling interests related to a 2015 transaction was misclassified in permanent equity rather than temporary equity based on a redemption feature of the partnership agreement and we have corrected the $114,714,000 misclassification by recording the change in the consolidated statement of equity for the six months ended June 30, 2016. Operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2016 are not necessarily an indication of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2016. For further information, refer to the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”. The standard is a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires revenue to be recognized in a manner to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received in exchange for those goods or services. ASU 2014-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017, and early adoption is permitted beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and have not yet determined the method by which we will adopt the standard.
In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, “Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis”, which makes certain changes to both the variable interest model and the voting model, including changes to (1) the identification of variable interests (fees paid to a decision maker or service provider), (2) the variable interest entity characteristics for a limited partnership or similar entity and (3) the primary beneficiary determination. We adopted ASU 2015-02 on January 1, 2016. This guidance did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-16, “Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments” to simplify the accounting for business combinations, specifically as it relates to measurement-period adjustments. Acquiring entities in a business combination must recognize measurement-period adjustments in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. Also, ASU 2015-16 requires entities to present separately on the face of the income statement (or disclose in the notes to the financial statements) the portion of the amount recorded in the current period earnings, by line item, that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. We adopted ASU 2015-16 on January 1, 2016. This guidance did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01, “Financial Instruments – Overall: Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities,” which will require entities to measure their investments at fair value and recognize any changes in fair value in net income unless the investments qualify for the new practicability exception. The practicability exception will be available for equity investments that do not have readily determinable fair values. ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2017. We are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” which requires lessees to recognize assets and liabilities on their balance sheet related to the rights and obligations created by most leases, while continuing to recognize expenses on their income statements over the lease term. It will also require disclosures designed to give financial statement users information

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
regarding the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2018, and early adoption is permitted. Entities are required to use a modified retrospective approach for leases that exist or are entered into after the beginning of the earliest comparative period in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.
In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, “Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting”. This standard simplifies the accounting treatment for excess tax benefits and deficiencies, forfeitures, and cash flow considerations related to share-based compensation. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2016, and early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the standard; however, we do not expect its adoption to have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, “Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”. This standard requires a new forward-looking “expected loss” model to be used for receivables, held-to-maturity debt, loans, and other instruments. ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019, and early adoption is permitted for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. We are currently evaluating the impact that the standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.
3. Real Property Acquisitions and Development
The total purchase price for all properties acquired has been allocated to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests based upon their respective fair values in accordance with our accounting policies. The results of operations for these acquisitions have been included in our consolidated results of operations since the date of acquisition and are a component of the appropriate segments. Transaction costs primarily represent costs incurred with property acquisitions, including due diligence costs, fees for legal and valuation services and termination of pre-existing relationships computed based on the fair value of the assets acquired, lease termination fees and other acquisition-related costs. Certain of our subsidiaries’ functional currencies are the local currencies of their respective countries. See Note 2 to the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 for information regarding our foreign currency policies.

5. Dispositions, Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations
We periodically sell properties for various reasons, including favorable market conditions or the exercise of tenant purchase options. During the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we recorded impairment charges on certain held-for-sale triple-net properties as the fair values less estimated costs to sell exceeded our carrying values. The following is a summary of our real property disposition activity for the periods presented (in thousands):
Dispositions and Assets Held for Sale
Pursuant to our adoption of ASU No. 2014-08, “Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity”, operating results attributable to properties sold subsequent to or classified as held for sale after January 1, 2014 and which do not meet the definition of discontinued operations are no longer reclassified on our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. The following represents the activity related to these properties for the periods presented (in thousands):

We recorded no provision for loan losses during the six months ended June 30, 2016. At June 30, 2016, we had no real estate loans with outstanding balances on non-accrual status and no allowances for loan losses were recorded.
7. Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
We participate in a number of joint ventures, which generally invest in seniors housing and health care real estate. The results of operations for these properties have been included in our consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition by the joint ventures and are reflected in our Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as income or loss from unconsolidated entities. The following is a summary of our investments in unconsolidated entities (dollars in thousands):
At June 30, 2016, the aggregate unamortized basis difference of our joint venture investments of $153,126,000 is primarily attributable to the difference between the amount for which we purchase our interest in the entity, including transaction costs, and the historical carrying value of the net assets of the entity. This difference will be amortized over the remaining useful life of the related properties and included in the reported amount of income from unconsolidated entities.
We use net operating income from continuing operations (“NOI”) as our credit concentration metric. See Note 17 for additional information and reconciliation. The following table summarizes certain information about our credit concentration for the six month period ended June 30, 2016, excluding our share of NOI in unconsolidated entities (dollars in thousands):

9. Borrowings Under Credit Facilities and Related Items
At June 30, 2016, we had a primary unsecured credit facility with a consortium of 29 banks that includes a $3,000,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility, a $500,000,000 unsecured term credit facility and a $250,000,000 Canadian-denominated unsecured term credit facility. We have an option, through an accordion feature, to upsize the unsecured revolving credit facility and the $500,000,000 unsecured term credit facility by up to an additional $1,000,000,000, in the aggregate, and the $250,000,000 Canadian-denominated unsecured term credit facility by up to an additional $250,000,000. The primary unsecured credit facility also allows us to borrow up to $1,000,000,000 in alternate currencies (none outstanding at June 30, 2016). Borrowings under the unsecured revolving credit facility are subject to interest payable at the applicable margin over LIBOR interest rate (1.35% at June 30, 2016). The applicable margin is based on certain of our debt ratings and was 0.90% at June 30, 2016. In addition, we pay a facility fee quarterly to each bank based on the bank’s commitment amount. The facility fee depends on certain of our debt ratings and was 0.15% at June 30, 2016. The term credit facilities mature on May 13, 2021. The revolving credit facility is scheduled to mature on May 13, 2020 and can be extended for two successive terms of six months each at our option.
The following information relates to aggregate borrowings under the primary unsecured revolving credit facility for the periods presented (dollars in thousands):
10. Senior Unsecured Notes and Secured Debt
We may repurchase, redeem or refinance senior unsecured notes from time to time, taking advantage of favorable market conditions when available. We may purchase senior notes for cash through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, a tender offer or, in some cases, through the early redemption of such securities pursuant to their terms. The senior unsecured notes are redeemable at our option, at any time in whole or from time to time in part, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) the principal amount of the notes (or portion of such notes) being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon up to the redemption date and (2) any “make-whole” amount due under the terms of the notes in connection with early redemptions. Redemptions and repurchases of debt, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. At June 30, 2016, the annual principal payments due on these debt obligations were as follows (in thousands):

Our debt agreements contain various covenants, restrictions and events of default. Certain agreements require us to maintain certain financial ratios and minimum net worth and impose certain limits on our ability to incur indebtedness, create liens and make investments or acquisitions. As of June 30, 2016, we were in compliance with all of the covenants under our debt agreements.
We are exposed to various market risks, including the potential loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates. We may elect to use financial derivative instruments to hedge interest rate exposure. These decisions are principally based on our policy to manage the general trend in interest rates at the applicable dates and our perception of the future volatility of interest rates. In addition, non-U.S. investments expose us to the potential losses associated with adverse changes in foreign currency to U.S. Dollar exchange rates. We may elect to manage this risk through the use of forward contracts and issuing debt in foreign currencies.
Interest Rate Swap Contracts and Foreign Currency Forward Contracts Designated as Cash Flow Hedges
For instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (“OCI”), and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods, during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in earnings. Approximately $4,911,000 of gains, which are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), are expected to be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months.
Foreign Currency Hedges
For instruments that are designated and qualify as net investment hedges, the variability in the foreign currency to U.S. Dollar of the instrument is recorded as a cumulative translation adjustment component of OCI. During the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we settled certain net investment hedges generating cash proceeds of $56,842,000 and $72,477,000, respectively. The balance of the cumulative translation adjustment will be reclassified to earnings when the hedged investment is sold or substantially liquidated.

12. Commitments and Contingencies
At June 30, 2016, we had ten outstanding letter of credit obligations totaling $91,783,000 and expiring between 2016 and 2018. At June 30, 2016, we had outstanding construction in progress of $475,203,000 and were committed to providing additional funds of approximately $627,775,000 to complete construction. Purchase obligations at June 30, 2016 include $1,150,000,000 representing acquisitions expected to be completed before year-end. Purchase obligations also include contingent purchase obligations totaling $22,475,000 which relate to unfunded capital improvement obligations and contingent obligations on acquisitions. Rents due from the tenant are increased to reflect the additional investment in the property.
We evaluate our leases for operating versus capital lease treatment in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 840 “Leases.” A lease is classified as a capital lease if it provides for transfer of ownership of the leased asset at the end of the lease term, contains a bargain purchase option, has a lease term greater than 75% of the economic life of the leased asset, or if the net present value of the future minimum lease payments are in excess of 90% of the fair value of the leased asset. Certain leases contain bargain purchase options and have been classified as capital leases. At June 30, 2016, we had operating lease obligations of $1,088,213,000 relating to certain ground leases and company office space and capital lease obligations of $96,201,000 relating primarily to certain investment properties. Regarding ground leases, we have sublease agreements with certain of our operators that require the operators to reimburse us for our monthly operating lease obligations. At June 30, 2016 , aggregate future minimum rentals to be received under these noncancelable subleases totaled $76,954,000.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income . The following is a summary of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the periods presented (in thousands):
Our 2016 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2016 Plan”) authorizes up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock to be issued at the discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Our non-employee directors, officers and key employees are eligible to participate in the 2016 Plan. The 2016 Plan allows for the issuance of, among other things, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, deferred stock units and dividend equivalent rights. Vesting periods for options, deferred stock units and restricted shares generally range from three to five years. Options expire ten years from the date of grant. Stock-based compensation expense totaled $7,031,000 and $15,217,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, and $11,124,000 and $20,178,000 for the same periods in 2015.

16. Disclosure about Fair Value of Financial Instruments
U.S. GAAP provides authoritative guidance for measuring and disclosing fair value measurements of assets and liabilities. The guidance defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The guidance describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Please see Note 2 to the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 for additional information.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value.
Mortgage Loans and Other Real Estate Loans Receivable — The fair value of mortgage loans and other real estate loans receivable is generally estimated by using Level 2 and Level 3 inputs such as discounting the estimated future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made to borrowers with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities.
Cash and Cash Equivalents — The carrying amount approximates fair value.
Available-for-sale Equity Investments — Available-for-sale equity investments are recorded at their fair value based on Level 1 publicly available trading prices.
20
WELLTOWER INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Borrowings Under Primary Unsecured Credit Facility — The carrying amount of the primary unsecured credit facility approximates fair value because the borrowings are interest rate adjustable.
Senior Unsecured Notes — The fair value of the fixed rate senior unsecured notes was estimated based on Level 1 publicly available trading prices. The carrying amount of variable rate senior unsecured notes approximates fair value because they are interest rate adjustable.
Secured Debt — The fair value of fixed rate secured debt is estimated using Level 2 inputs by discounting the estimated future cash flows using the current rates at which similar loans would be made with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. The carrying amount of variable rate secured debt approximates fair value because the borrowings are interest rate adjustable.
Foreign Currency Forward Contracts — Foreign currency forward contracts are recorded in other assets or other liabilities on the balance sheet at fair market value. Fair market value is determined using Level 2 inputs by estimating the future value of the currency pair based on existing exchange rates, comprised of current spot and traded forward points, and calculating a present value of the net amount using a discount factor based on observable traded interest rates.
Redeemable OP Unitholder Interests — The fair value of our redeemable unitholder interests are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value using Level 2 inputs. The fair value is measured using the closing price of our common stock, as units may be redeemed at the election of the holder for cash or, at our option, one share of our common stock per unit, subject to adjustment in certain circumstances.
The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of our financial instruments are as follows (in thousands):

Items Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The market approach is utilized to measure fair value for our financial assets and liabilities reported at fair value on a recurring basis. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The following summarizes items measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):
21
WELLTOWER INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Items Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
In addition to items that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, we also have assets and liabilities in our balance sheet that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. As these assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, they are not included in the tables above. Assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis include those acquired/assumed in business combinations (see Note 3) and asset impairments (if applicable, see Note 5 for impairments of real property and Note 6 for impairments of loans receivable). We have determined that the fair value measurements included in each of these assets and liabilities rely primarily on company-specific inputs and our assumptions about the use of the assets and settlement of liabilities, as observable inputs are not available. As such, we have determined that each of these fair value measurements generally reside within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. We estimate the fair value of real estate and related intangibles using the income approach and unobservable data such as net operating income and estimated capitalization and discount rates. We also consider local and national industry market data including comparable sales, and commonly engage an external real estate appraiser to assist us in our estimation of fair value. We estimate the fair value of assets held for sale based on current sales price expectations or, in the absence of such price expectations, Level 3 inputs described above. We estimate the fair value of secured debt assumed in business combinations using current interest rates at which similar borrowings could be obtained on the transaction date.
We invest in seniors housing and health care real estate. We evaluate our business and make resource allocations on our three operating segments: triple-net, seniors housing operating and outpatient medical. During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we reclassified four properties previously classified in the triple-net segment to the outpatient medical segment. Accordingly, the segment information provided in this note has been reclassified to conform to the current presentation for all periods presented.
Our triple-net properties include long-term/post-acute care facilities, assisted living facilities, independent living/continuing care retirement communities, care homes (United Kingdom), independent support living facilities (Canada), care homes with nursing (United Kingdom) and combinations thereof. Under the triple-net segment, we invest in seniors housing and health care real estate through acquisition and financing of primarily single tenant properties. Properties acquired are primarily leased under triple-net leases and we are not involved in the management of the property. Our seniors housing operating properties include the seniors housing communities referenced above that are owned and/or operated through RIDEA structures (see Notes 3 and 18).
Our outpatient medical properties include outpatient medical buildings and, during past years, life science buildings which are aggregated into our outpatient medical reportable segment. Our outpatient medical buildings are typically leased to multiple tenants and generally require a certain level of property management. During the three months ended June 30, 2015, we disposed of our life science investments.
We evaluate performance based upon NOI by segment. We define NOI as total revenues, including tenant reimbursements, less property level operating expenses. We believe NOI provides investors relevant and useful information because it measures the operating performance of our properties at the property level on an unleveraged basis. We use NOI to make decisions about resource allocations and to assess the property level performance of our properties.
Non-segment revenue consists mainly of interest income on non-real estate investments and other income. Non-segment assets consist of corporate assets including cash, deferred loan expenses and corporate offices and equipment among others. Non-property specific revenues and expenses are not allocated to individual segments in determining NOI.
The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies (see Note 2 to the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015). The results of operations for all acquisitions described in Note 3 are included in our consolidated results of operations from the acquisition dates and are components of the appropriate segments. There are no intersegment sales or transfers.
Summary information for the reportable segments is as follows for the periods presented (in thousands):

18. Income Taxes and Distributions
We elected to be taxed as a REIT commencing with our first taxable year. To qualify as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, at least 90% of taxable income (excluding 100% of net capital gains) must be distributed to stockholders. REITs that do not distribute a certain amount of current year taxable income in the current year are also subject to a 4% federal excise tax. The main differences between undistributed net income for federal income tax purposes and financial statement purposes are the recognition of straight-line rent for reporting purposes, basis differences in acquisitions, recording of impairments, differing useful lives and depreciation and amortization methods for real property and the provision for loan losses for reporting purposes versus bad debt expense for tax purposes.
Under the provisions of the REIT Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act of 2007 (“RIDEA”), for taxable years beginning after July 30, 2008, a REIT may lease “qualified health care properties” on an arm’s-length basis to a taxable REIT subsidiary (“TRS”) if the property is operated on behalf of such TRS by a person who qualifies as an “eligible independent contractor.” Generally, the rent received from the TRS will meet the related party rent exception and will be treated as “rents from real property.” A “qualified health care property” includes real property and any personal property that is, or is necessary or incidental to the use of, a hospital, nursing facility, assisted living facility, congregate care facility, qualified continuing care facility, or other licensed facility which extends medical or nursing or ancillary services to patients. We have entered into various joint ventures that were structured under RIDEA. Resident level rents and related operating expenses for these facilities are reported in the unaudited consolidated financial statements and are subject to federal and state income taxes as the operations of such facilities are included in TRS entities. Certain net operating loss carryforwards could be utilized to offset taxable income in future years.
Income taxes reflected in the financial statements primarily represents U.S. federal and state and local income taxes as well as non-U.S. income based or withholding taxes on certain investments located in jurisdictions outside the U.S. The provision for income taxes for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, was primarily due to operating income or losses, offset by certain discrete items at our TRS entities. In 2014, we established certain wholly-owned direct and indirect subsidiaries in Luxembourg and Jersey and transferred interests in certain foreign investments into this holding company structure. The structure includes a property holding company that is tax resident in the United Kingdom. No material adverse current tax consequences in Luxembourg, Jersey or the United Kingdom resulted from the creation of this holding company structure and all of the subsidiary entities in the structure are treated as disregarded entities of the company for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The company reflects current and deferred tax liabilities for any such withholding taxes incurred as a result of this holding company structure in its consolidated financial statements. Generally, given current statutes of limitations, we are subject to audit by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for the year ended December 31, 2012 and subsequent years and by state taxing authorities for the year ended December 31, 2011 and subsequent years. The company and its subsidiaries are also subject to audit by the Canada Revenue Agency and provincial authorities generally for periods subsequent to our initial investments in Canada in May 2012, by HM Revenue & Customs for periods subsequent to our

initial investments in the United Kingdom in August 2012 and by Luxembourg taxing authorities generally for periods subsequent to our establishment of certain Luxembourg-based subsidiaries during 2014.
19. Variable Interest Entities
We have entered into joint ventures to own certain seniors housing and outpatient medical assets which are deemed to be variable interest entities (“VIE”). We have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary of these VIE’s based on a combination of operational control of the joint venture and the rights to receive residual returns or the obligation to absorb losses arising from the joint ventures. Except for capital contributions associated with the initial joint venture formations, the joint ventures have been and are expected to be funded from the ongoing operations of the underlying properties. Accordingly, such joint ventures have been consolidated, and the table below summarizes the balance sheets of consolidated VIE’s in the aggregate (in thousands):

Executive Summary
Company Overview
Welltower Inc. (NYSE:HCN), an S&P 500 company headquartered in Toledo, Ohio, is driving the transformation of health care infrastructure. The company invests with leading seniors housing operators, post-acute providers and health systems to fund the real estate and infrastructure needed to scale innovative care delivery models and improve people’s wellness and overall health care experience. Welltower™, a real estate investment trust (“REIT”), owns properties in major, high-growth markets in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom, consisting of seniors housing and post-acute communities and outpatient medical properties . Our capital programs, when combined with comprehensive planning, development and property management services, make us a single-source solution for acquiring, planning, developing, managing, repositioning and monetizing real estate assets.
The following table summarizes our consolidated portfolio for the three months ended June 30, 2016 (dollars in thousands):
Business Strategy
Our primary objectives are to protect stockholder capital and enhance stockholder value. We seek to pay consistent cash dividends to stockholders and create opportunities to increase dividend payments to stockholders as a result of annual increases in net operating income and portfolio growth. To meet these objectives, we invest across the full spectrum of seniors housing and health care real estate and diversify our investment portfolio by property type, relationship and geographic location.
Substantially all of our revenues are derived from operating lease rentals, resident fees and services, and interest earned on outstanding loans receivable. These items represent our primary sources of liquidity to fund distributions and depend upon the continued ability of our obligors to make contractual rent and interest payments to us and the profitability of our operating properties. To the extent that our customers/partners experience operating difficulties and become unable to generate sufficient cash to make payments to us, there could be a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity and/or financial condition. To mitigate this risk, we monitor our investments through a variety of methods determined by the type of property. Our proactive and comprehensive asset management process for seniors housing properties generally includes review of monthly financial statements and other operating data for each property, review of obligor/partner creditworthiness, property inspections, and review of covenant compliance relating to licensure, real estate taxes, letters of credit and other collateral. Our internal property management division actively manages and monitors the outpatient medical portfolio with a comprehensive process including tenant relations, lease expirations, the mix of health service providers, hospital/health system relationships, property performance, capital improvement needs, and market conditions among other things. In monitoring our portfolio, our personnel use a proprietary database to collect and analyze property-specific data. Additionally, we conduct extensive research to ascertain industry trends. We evaluate the operating environment in each property’s market to determine the likely trend in operating performance of the facility. When we identify unacceptable trends, we seek to mitigate, eliminate or transfer the risk. Through these efforts, we are generally able to intervene at an early stage to address any negative trends, and in so doing, support both the collectability of revenue and the value of our investment.
In addition to our asset management and research efforts, we also structure our investments to help mitigate payment risk. Operating leases and loans are normally credit enhanced by guaranties and/or letters of credit. In addition, operating leases are typically structured as master leases and loans are generally cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized with other real estate loans, operating leases or agreements between us and the obligor and its affiliates.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
For the six months ended June 30, 2016, rental income and resident fees and services represented 39% and 57%, respectively, of total revenues. Substantially all of our operating leases are designed with escalating rent structures. Leases with fixed annual rental escalators are generally recognized on a straight-line basis over the initial lease period, subject to a collectability assessment. Rental income related to leases with contingent rental escalators is generally recorded based on the contractual cash rental payments due for the period. Our yield on loans receivable depends upon a number of factors, including the stated interest rate, the average principal amount outstanding during the term of the loan and any interest rate adjustments.
Our primary sources of cash include rent and interest receipts, resident fees and services, borrowings under our primary unsecured credit facility, public issuances of debt and equity securities, proceeds from investment dispositions and principal payments on loans receivable. Our primary uses of cash include dividend distributions, debt service payments (including principal and interest), real property investments (including acquisitions, capital expenditures, construction advances and transaction costs), loan advances, property operating expenses and general and administrative expenses. Depending upon the availability and cost of external capital, we believe our liquidity is sufficient to fund these uses of cash.
We also continuously evaluate opportunities to finance future investments. New investments are generally funded from temporary borrowings under our primary unsecured credit facility, internally generated cash and the proceeds from investment dispositions. Our investments generate cash from net operating income and principal payments on loans receivable. Permanent financing for future investments, which replaces funds drawn under our primary unsecured credit facility, has historically been provided through a combination of the issuance of public debt and equity securities and the incurrence or assumption of secured debt.
Depending upon market conditions, we believe that new investments will be available in the future with spreads over our cost of capital that will generate appropriate returns to our stockholders. It is also possible that investment dispositions may occur in the future. To the extent that investment dispositions exceed new investments, our revenues and cash flows from operations could be adversely affected. We expect to reinvest the proceeds from any investment dispositions in new investments. To the extent that new investment requirements exceed our available cash on-hand, we expect to borrow under our primary unsecured credit facility. At June 30, 2016, we had $466,585,000 of cash and cash equivalents, $58,440,000 of restricted cash and $2,206,070,000 of available borrowing capacity under our primary unsecured credit facility.
Capital Market Outlook
We believe the capital markets remain supportive of our investment strategy. For the 18 months ended June 30, 2016, we raised $4,134,944,000 in aggregate gross proceeds through the issuance of common stock and unsecured debt. The capital raised, in combination with available cash and borrowing capacity under our primary unsecured credit facility, supported pro rata gross new investments of $4,819,684,000 during 2015 and $703,780,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2016. We expect attractive investment opportunities to remain available in the future as we continue to leverage the benefits of our relationship investment strategy.
Key Transactions in 2016
Capital . In March 2016, we issued $700,000,000 of 4.25% senior unsecured notes due 2026, generating approximately $688,560,000 of net proceeds. In May 2016, we closed on a new primary unsecured credit facility that includes a $3,000,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility, a $500,000,000 unsecured term credit facility and a $250,000,000 Canadian-denominated unsecured term credit facility plus an option to upsize the unsecured revolving credit facility and the $500,000,000 unsecured term credit facility by up to an additional $1,000,000,000, in the aggregate, and the $250,000,000 Canadian-denominated unsecured term credit facility by up to an additional $250,000,000. The facility also allows us to borrow up to $1,000,000,000 in alternate currencies. Based on our current credit ratings, the unsecured revolving credit facility is priced at 0.90% over LIBOR with a 0.15% annual facility fee and the unsecured term credit facilities are priced at 0.95% over LIBOR for the U.S. tranche and CDOR for the Canadian tranche. The unsecured term credit facilities mature on May 13, 2021 and the unsecured revolving credit facility matures on May 13, 2020. The unsecured revolving credit facility can be extended for two successive terms of six months each at our option. During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we raised $157,209,000 through our dividend reinvestment program and our Equity Shelf Program (as defined below).
Investments . The following summarizes our acquisitions and joint venture investments completed during the six months ended June 30, 2016 (dollars in thousands):

Dispositions . The following summarizes property dispositions made during the six months ended June 30, 2016 (dollars in thousands):
Dividends . Our Board of Directors increased the annual cash dividend to $3.44 per common share ($0.86 per share quarterly), as compared to $3.30 per common share for 2015, beginning in February 2016. The dividend declared for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 represents the 181 st consecutive quarterly dividend payment.
Key Performance Indicators, Trends and Uncertainties
We utilize several key performance indicators to evaluate the various aspects of our business. These indicators are discussed below and relate to operating performance, concentration risk and credit strength. Management uses these key performance indicators to facilitate internal and external comparisons to our historical operating results, in making operating decisions and for budget planning purposes.
Operating Performance . We believe that net income attributable to common stockholders (“NICS”) is the most appropriate earnings measure. Other useful supplemental measures of our operating performance include funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“FFO”), net operating income from continuing operations (“NOI”) and same store NOI (“SSNOI”); however, these supplemental measures are not defined by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). Please refer to the section entitled “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” for further discussion and reconciliations of FFO, NOI and SSNOI. These earnings measures and their relative per share amounts are widely used by investors and analysts in the valuation, comparison and investment recommendations of companies. The following table reflects the recent historical trends of our operating performance measures for the periods presented (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Credit Strength. We measure our credit strength both in terms of leverage ratios and coverage ratios. The leverage ratios indicate how much of our balance sheet capitalization is related to long-term debt. The coverage ratios indicate our ability to service interest and fixed charges (interest, secured debt principal amortization and preferred dividends). We expect to maintain capitalization ratios and coverage ratios sufficient to maintain a capital structure consistent with our current profile. The coverage ratios are based on earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) which is discussed in further detail, and reconciled to net income, below in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Leverage ratios and coverage ratios are widely used by investors, analysts and rating agencies in the valuation, comparison, investment recommendations and rating of companies. The following table reflects the recent historical trends for our credit strength measures for the periods presented:

Concentration Risk . We evaluate our concentration risk in terms of NOI by property mix, relationship mix and geographic mix. Concentration risk is a valuable measure in understanding what portion of our NOI could be at risk if certain sectors were to experience downturns. Property mix measures the portion of our NOI that relates to our various property types. Relationship mix measures the portion of our NOI that relates to our top five relationships. Geographic mix measures the portion of our NOI that relates to our top five states (or international equivalents). The following table reflects our recent historical trends of concentration risk by NOI for the periods indicated below:

We evaluate our key performance indicators in conjunction with current expectations to determine if historical trends are indicative of future results. Our expected results may not be achieved and actual results may differ materially from our expectations. Factors that may cause actual results to differ from expected results are described in more detail in “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Management regularly monitors economic and other factors to develop strategic and tactical plans designed to improve performance and maximize our competitive position. Our ability to achieve our financial objectives is dependent upon our ability to effectively execute these plans and to appropriately respond to emerging economic and company-specific trends. Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, under the headings “Business,” “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for further discussion of these risk factors.

Operating Activities . The change in net cash provided from operating activities is primarily attributable to increases in NOI, which is primarily due to acquisitions. Please see “Results of Operations” for further discussion. For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, cash flow provided from operations exceeded cash distributions to stockholders.
Investing Activities . The changes in net cash used in investing activities are primarily attributable to net changes in real property investments, real estate loans receivable and investments in unconsolidated entities, which are summarized above in “Key Transactions in 2016” and Notes 3 and 6 of our unaudited consolidated financial statements. The following is a summary of cash used in non-acquisition capital improvement activities (dollars in thousands):

The change in new development is primarily due to the number and size of construction projects on-going during the relevant periods. Renovations, redevelopments and other capital improvements include expenditures to maximize property value, increase net operating income, maintain a market-competitive position and/or achieve property stabilization. Generally, these expenditures have increased as a result of acquisitions, primarily in our seniors housing operating segment.
Financing Activities . The changes in net cash provided from financing activities are primarily attributable to changes related to our long-term debt arrangements, the issuance/conversion of common and preferred stock and dividend payments. Please refer to Notes 9, 10 and 13 of our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Capital Structure
Our debt agreements contain various covenants, restrictions and events of default. Certain agreements require us to maintain certain financial ratios and minimum net worth and impose certain limits on our ability to incur indebtedness, create liens and make investments or acquisitions. As of June 30, 2016, we were in compliance with all of the covenants under our debt agreements. None of our debt agreements contain provisions for acceleration which could be triggered by our debt ratings. However, under our primary unsecured credit facility, the ratings on our senior unsecured notes are used to determine the fees and interest charged. We plan to manage the company to maintain compliance with our debt covenants and with a capital structure consistent with our current profile. Any downgrades in terms of ratings or outlook by any or all of the rating agencies could have a material adverse impact on our cost and availability of capital, which could in turn have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity and/or financial condition.
On May 1, 2015, we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) (1) an open-ended automatic or “universal” shelf registration statement covering an indeterminate amount of future offerings of debt securities, common stock, preferred stock, depositary shares, warrants and units and (2) a registration statement in connection with our enhanced dividend reinvestment plan under which we may issue up to 15,000,000 shares of common stock. As of July 31, 2016, 9,717,384 shares of common stock
34
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
remained available for issuance under this registration statement. We have entered into separate Equity Distribution Agreements with each of UBS Securities LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc. and Credit Agricole Securities (USA) Inc. relating to the offer and sale from time to time of up to $630,015,000 aggregate amount of our common stock (“Equity Shelf Program”). As of July 31, 2016, we had $378,734,000 of remaining capacity under the Equity Shelf Program. Depending upon market conditions, we anticipate issuing securities under our registration statements to invest in additional properties and to repay borrowings under our primary unsecured credit facility.
Results of Operations
Summary
Our primary sources of revenue include rent and resident fees and services. Our primary expenses include interest expense, depreciation and amortization, property operating expenses, transaction costs and general and administrative expenses. We evaluate our business and make resource allocations on our three business segments: triple-net, seniors housing operating and outpatient medical. The primary performance measures for our properties are NOI and SSNOI, which are discussed below. Please see Note 17 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we reclassified four properties previously classified in the triple-net segment to the outpatient medical segment. Accordingly, the information has been reclassified to conform to the current presentation for all periods presented. The following is a summary of our results of operations for the triple-net segment (dollars in thousands):
The increase in rental income is primarily attributable to the acquisitions of new properties and the conversion of newly constructed triple-net properties from which we receive rent. Certain of our leases contain annual rental escalators that are contingent upon changes in the Consumer Price Index and/or changes in the gross operating revenues of the tenant’s properties. These escalators are not fixed, so no straight-line rent is recorded; however, rental income is recorded based on the contractual cash rental payments due for the period. If gross operating revenues at our facilities and/or the Consumer Price Index do not increase, a portion of our revenues may not continue to increase. Sales of real property would offset revenue increases and, to the extent that they exceed new acquisitions, could result in decreased revenues. Our leases could renew above or below current rent rates, resulting in an increase or decrease in rental income. For the three months ended June 30, 2016, we had no lease renewals but we had 26 leases with rental rate increasers ranging from 0.05% to 0.57% in our triple-net portfolio. The change in interest income is due to a higher loan volume in the current year, which includes two first mortgage loans to Genesis Healthcare. The decrease in other income is due to the receipt of an early prepayment fee in 2015 related to a real estate loan receivable.
During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we did not complete any construction projects but did complete an expansion project totaling $2,879,000. The following is a summary of triple-net construction projects pending as of June 30, 2016 (dollars in thousands):

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 represents secured debt interest expense and gains and losses on forward exchange contracts. The change in interest expense is due to the net effect and timing of assumptions, segment transitions, fluctuations in foreign currency rates, extinguishments and principal amortizations. The following is a summary of our triple-net secured debt principal activity (dollars in thousands):

In April 2011, we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the real estate assets of privately-owned Genesis Healthcare Corporation. In conjunction with this transaction, we received the option to acquire an ownership interest in Genesis Healthcare. In February 2015, Genesis Healthcare closed on a transaction to merge with Skilled Healthcare Group to become a publicly traded company which required us to record the value of the derivative asset due to the net settlement feature. This event resulted in $58,427,000 gain in the first quarter of 2015.
Depreciation and amortization increased primarily as a result of new property acquisitions and the conversions of newly constructed triple-net properties. To the extent that we acquire or dispose of additional properties in the future, our provision for depreciation and amortization will change accordingly.
Transaction costs are costs incurred with property acquisitions including due diligence costs, fees for legal and valuation services, the termination of pre-existing relationships, lease termination expenses and other similar costs. The 2015 transaction costs include a charge related to the termination of pre-existing relationships, the termination of a lease obligation and overall higher transaction volume. The fluctuation in losses/gains on debt extinguishment is primarily attributable to the volume of extinguishments and the terms of the related secured debt.
Changes in the gain on sales of properties are related to property sales which totaled nine and eleven for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, we recorded impairment charges on certain held-for-sale triple-net properties as the fair values less estimated costs to sell exceeded our carrying values.

Fluctuations in revenues and property operating expenses are primarily a result of acquisitions and the movement of U.S. and foreign currency exchange rates. The fluctuations in depreciation and amortization are due to acquisitions and variations in amortization of short-lived intangible assets. To the extent that we acquire or dispose of additional properties in the future, these amounts will change accordingly.
During the six month period ended June 30, 2016, we did not complete any construction projects. The following is a summary of our seniors housing operating construction projects, excluding expansions, pending as of June 30, 2016 (dollars in thousands):

Interest expense represents secured debt interest expense as well as interest expense related to all foreign senior unsecured debt. The increase in interest expense is attributed primarily to the $300,000,000 Canadian-denominated senior unsecured notes issued in November 2015.

T ransaction costs fluctuate based on the volume of acquisitions in a year. For the current year, transaction costs are lower because of decreased acquisition volume. The majority of our seniors housing operating properties are formed through partnership interests. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests represents our partners’ share of net income (loss) related to joint ventures. The fluctuations in income (loss) from unconsolidated entities is primarily due to depreciation and amortization of short-lived intangible assets and the timing of additional investments in unconsolidated entities.

(1) See Note 5 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements. |
The increase in rental income is primarily attributable to the acquisitions of new properties and the conversion of newly constructed outpatient medical properties from which we receive rent. Certain of our leases contain annual rental escalators that are contingent upon changes in the Consumer Price Index. These escalators are not fixed, so no straight-line rent is recorded; however, rental income is recorded based on the contractual cash rental payments due for the period. If the Consumer Price Index does not increase, a portion of our revenues may not continue to increase. Sales of real property would offset revenue increases and, to the extent that they exceed new acquisitions, could result in decreased revenues. Our leases could renew above or below current rent rates, resulting in an increase or decrease in rental income. For the three months ended June 30, 2016, our consolidated outpatient medical portfolio signed 72,307 square feet of new leases and 159,748 square feet of renewals. The weighted-average term of these leases was six years, with a rate of $41.13 per square foot and tenant improvement and lease commission costs of $17.30 per square foot. Substantially all of these leases during the referenced quarter contain an annual fixed or contingent escalation rent structure ranging from the change in CPI to 5%.
During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we completed two outpatient medical construction projects representing $35,363,000 or $267 per square foot. The following is a summary of the outpatient medical construction projects, excluding expansions, pending as of June 30, 2016 (dollars in thousands):

The increase in property operating expenses is primarily attributable to acquisitions and construction conversions of new outpatient medical facilities for which we incur certain property operating expenses. Transaction costs represent costs incurred with property acquisitions including due diligence costs, fees for legal and valuation services, termination of pre-existing relationships, lease termination expenses and other similar costs. Income from unconsolidated entities represents our share of net income or losses related to the periods for which we held a joint venture investment with Forest City Enterprises and certain unconsolidated property investments. Changes in gains/losses on sales of properties are related to volume of property sales and the sales prices. A portion of our outpatient medical properties were formed through partnerships. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests represents our partners’ share of net income or loss relating to those partnerships where we are the controlling partner.

The change in interest expense on senior unsecured notes is due to the net effect of issuances and extinguishments, excluding our foreign senior unsecured debt, which is in our seniors housing operating segment. Please refer to Note 10 to our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information. Loan expense represents the amortization of deferred loan costs incurred in connection with the issuance and amendments of debt. Loan expense changes are due to amortization of charges for costs incurred in connection with senior unsecured note issuances. The change in interest expense on the primary unsecured credit facility is due primarily to the net effect and timing of draws, paydowns and variable interest rate changes. Please refer to Note 9 of our unaudited consolidated financial statements for additional information regarding our primary unsecured credit facility.
General and administrative expenses as a percentage of consolidated revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015 were 3.70% and 4.02%, respectively. The increase in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2016 is primarily related to professional service fees for tax and legal consulting and costs associated with our initiatives to attract and retain appropriate personnel to achieve our business objectives. Other expenses in both years included costs associated with the retirement of executive officers. Other expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2015 also included costs associated with the termination of our investment in a strategic medical office partnership.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Other
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We believe that net income, as defined by U.S. GAAP, is the most appropriate earnings measurement. However, we consider FFO, NOI, SSNOI, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be useful supplemental measures of our operating performance. Historical cost accounting for real estate assets in accordance with U.S. GAAP implicitly assumes that the value of real estate assets diminishes predictably over time as evidenced by the provision for depreciation. However, since real estate values have historically risen or fallen with market conditions, many industry investors and analysts have considered presentations of operating results for real estate companies that use historical cost accounting to be insufficient. In response, the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) created funds from operations attributable to common stockholders (“FFO”) as a supplemental measure of operating performance for REITs that excludes historical cost depreciation from net income. FFO, as defined by NAREIT, means net income attributable to common stockholders, computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding gains (or losses) from sales of real estate and impairment of depreciable assets, plus depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated entities and noncontrolling interests.
Net operating income from continuing operations (“NOI”) is used to evaluate the operating performance of our properties. We define NOI as total revenues, including tenant reimbursements, less property operating expenses. Property operating expenses represent costs associated with managing, maintaining and servicing tenants for our seniors housing operating and medical facility properties. These expenses include, but are not limited to, property-related payroll and benefits, property management fees, marketing, housekeeping, food service, maintenance, utilities, property taxes and insurance. General and administrative expenses represent costs unrelated to property operations or transaction costs. These expenses include, but are not limited to, payroll and benefits, professional services, office expenses and depreciation of corporate fixed assets. Same store NOI (“SSNOI”) is used to evaluate the cash-based operating performance of our properties under a consistent population which eliminates changes in the composition of our portfolio. As used herein, same store is generally defined as those revenue-generating properties in the portfolio for the reporting period subsequent to January 1, 2015. Land parcels, loans and sub-leases as well as any properties acquired, developed/redeveloped, transitioned, sold or classified as held for sale during that period are excluded from the same store amounts. We believe NOI and SSNOI provide investors relevant and useful information because they measure the operating performance of our properties at the property level on an unleveraged basis. We use NOI and SSNOI to make decisions about resource allocations and to assess the property level performance of our properties.
EBITDA stands for earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We believe that EBITDA, along with net income and cash flow provided from operating activities, is an important supplemental measure because it provides additional information to assess and evaluate the performance of our operations. We primarily utilize EBITDA to measure our interest coverage ratio, which represents EBITDA divided by total interest, and our fixed charge coverage ratio, which represents EBITDA divided by fixed charges. Fixed charges include total interest, secured debt principal amortization and preferred dividends.
A covenant in our primary unsecured credit facility contains a financial ratio based on a definition of EBITDA that is specific to that agreement. Failure to satisfy these covenants could result in an event of default that could have a material adverse impact on our cost and availability of capital, which could in turn have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity and/or financial condition. Due to the materiality of these debt agreements and the financial covenants, we have disclosed Adjusted EBITDA, which represents EBITDA as defined above and adjusted for items per our covenant. We use Adjusted EBITDA to measure our adjusted fixed charge coverage ratio, which represents Adjusted EBITDA divided by fixed charges on a trailing twelve months basis. Fixed charges include total interest (excluding capitalized interest and non-cash interest expenses), secured debt principal amortization and preferred dividends. Our covenant requires an adjusted fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.50 times.
Other than Adjusted EBITDA, our supplemental reporting measures and similarly entitled financial measures are widely used by investors, equity and debt analysts and rating agencies in the valuation, comparison, rating and investment recommendations of companies. Management uses these financial measures to facilitate internal and external comparisons to our historical operating results and in making operating decisions. Additionally, these measures are utilized by the Board of Directors to evaluate management. Adjusted EBITDA is used to demonstrate our compliance with a comparable financial covenant in our primary unsecured credit facility and is not being presented for use by investors for any other purpose. None of our supplemental measures represent net income or cash flow provided from operating activities as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP and should not be considered as alternative measures of profitability or liquidity. Finally, the supplemental measures, as defined by us, may not be comparable to similarly entitled items reported by other real estate investment trusts or other companies.
The table below reflects the reconciliation of FFO to net income attributable to common stockholders, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, for the periods presented. Noncontrolling interest and unconsolidated entity amounts represent adjustments to reflect our share of depreciation and amortization. Amounts are in thousands except for per share data.

Policy and legislative changes that increase or decrease government reimbursement impact our operators and tenants that participate in Medicare, Medicaid or other government programs. The reimbursement methodologies applied to health care facilities continue to evolve. To the extent that policy or legislative changes, or new reimbursement methodologies decrease government reimbursement to our operators and tenants, our revenue and operations may be indirectly adversely affected.
Licensing and Certification
Certain health care facilities are subject to a variety of licensure and certificate of need (“CON”) laws and regulations. Where applicable, CON laws generally require, among other requirements, that a facility demonstrate the need for (1) constructing a new facility, (2) adding beds or expanding an existing facility, (3) investing in major capital equipment or adding new services, (4) changing the ownership or control of an existing licensed facility, or (5) terminating services that have been previously approved through the CON process. State and federal officials, increasingly including the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) and the U.S. Department of Justice (“DOJ”), are challenging CON laws for reducing competition in the industry, creating barriers to entry and expansion, limiting consumer choice, and stifling innovation. We cannot predict whether current or future efforts to repeal or amend these state laws will be successful, nor can we predict the impact that such repeals or amendments would have on our operators or tenants and their ability to meet their obligations to us.
Reimbursement
The Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) pledged to tie 30% of Medicare payments to quality or alternative payment models by the end of 2016 and to tie 50% of Medicare payments to quality or alternate payment models by the end of 2018. In January 2015, the Administration announced that it achieved its goal of tying 30% of Medicare payments to quality ahead of schedule, by year end 2015 rather than the targeted deadline of year end 2016. Providers increasingly are entering into value-based purchasing arrangements, which to the extent Welltower’s operators and tenants enter into such agreements, could affect their reimbursement and indirectly impact our revenues and operations. For example, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (“CMS”) launched the Hospital Value-Based Purchasing (“VBP”) Program in 2013, which is an initiative designed to reward acute-care hospitals with incentive payments for the quality of care they provide to Medicare beneficiaries. Similarly, other public and private payors have started considering whether to base reimbursement decisions on access, price, quality, efficiency, and alignment of incentives, rewarding higher quality healthcare providers with enhanced payments and increased market share.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
On October 6, 2014, the President signed into law the Improving Medicare Post-Acute Transformation Act of 2014 (“IMPACT Act”). The law required MedPAC to submit a report to Congress by June 30, 2016, evaluating and recommending features of a post-acute payment system that establishes payment rates according to individual characteristics instead of the post-acute setting where the patient is treated. On June 15, 2016, MedPAC submitted this report to Congress, which provides general guidelines, rather than specific details, for developing a new cross-facility payment system, including a common unit of service, a common risk adjustment system using patient characteristics, separate models to establish payments for non-therapy ancillary services and therapy services, and two outlier policies for high-cost stays and short stays. The IMPACT Act requires MedPAC to issue another report in 2023, following CMS’s development of an actual payment prototype.
On November 3, 2015, CMS published a proposed rule that would revise the discharge planning requirements that hospitals, including long-term acute care hospitals (“LTCHs”), inpatient rehabilitation facilities (“IRFs”) and home health agencies (“HHAs”) must meet in order to participate in the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Among other things, the proposed rule would require hospitals and other facilities to evaluate patients for their discharge needs and develop specific written discharge plans for them. The proposed rule would also implement the discharge planning requirements of the IMPACT Act. Provider groups have expressed concern that the proposed rule, if implemented, could create burdensome paperwork requirements, resulting in the need to hire additional staff and necessarily expend more resources.
On February 9, 2016, President Obama released his budget proposal for fiscal year (“FY”) 2017. The proposed budget would cut Medicare payments to providers by $420 billion over ten years. Among other Medicare-related changes, the President’s budget plan over ten years would: (1) reduce bad debt payments to providers by $32.9 billion, (2) reduce the payment updates for post-acute care providers by $86.6 billion, (3) raise the “60% Rule” threshold for IRFs back to 75% for reductions of $2.2 billion, and (4) implement bundled post-acute care payments for reductions of $9.9 billion. If these recommendations are adopted, we cannot predict whether they will have a material impact on our operators’ or tenants’ property or business.
On March 11, 2016, CMS published a proposed rule to test new models regarding Medicare Part B payments for prescription drugs. The proposal is designed to test different physician and patient incentives to drive the prescribing of the most effective drugs and test new payment approaches to reward positive patient outcomes. If this proposed rule is finalized, it may impact our operators’ and tenants’ Medicare reimbursement rates, and our revenues and operations may be indirectly affected.
On March 15, 2016, the House Energy and Commerce Committee approved the Common Sense Act of 2016, which would lower the maximum rate for Medicaid provider tax assessments from 6.0% of taxpayer revenues to 5.5%. If enacted, the bill could lower funds available for state Medicaid programs and may result in lower Medicaid rates to our operators.
On March 24, 2016, CMS announced the next phase of its Initiative to Reduce Avoidable Hospitalizations among Nursing Facility Residents. Through this new payment model, CMS will encourage healthcare practitioners to provide additional treatments for especially ill or frail nursing home residents by equalizing the payments between a comprehensive assessment given at skilled nursing facilities (“SNFs”) and hospitals. Participating SNFs will also receive payment to provide additional treatment for common medical conditions that often lead to avoidable hospitalizations.
On April 1, 2016, CMS’s bundled payment program for Lower Extremity Joint Replacement (“CJR”) procedures went into effect. The CJR bundled payment program is mandatory for all hospitals paid under the Medicare Inpatient Prospective Payment System and located in the 67 selected Metropolitan Statistical Areas. This could have an effect on our SNF operators as patients are down streamed for recovery.
On April 4, 2016, CMS announced the final 2017 payment rates for Medicare Advantage, with an expected average payment increase of 0.85%. Changes in Medicare Advantage plan payments may indirectly affect our operators and tenants that contract with Medicare Advantage plans.
On April 25, 2016, CMS published proposed rules regarding FY 2017 Medicare payment policies and rates for SNFs and IRFs. Under the proposed SNF rule, CMS projects that aggregate payments to SNFs will increase by $800 million, or 2.1%, from payments in FY 2016. Under the proposed IRF rule, CMS projects that aggregate payments to IRFs will increase by $125 million, or 1.6%, from payments in FY 2016.
On April 26, 2016, CMS published a proposed rule regarding FY 2017 Medicare payment policies and rates for LTCHs. As a result of the continuation of the phase-in of site neutral payment rates for specified cases in LTCHs, CMS projects FY 2017 Medicare payments to LTCHs would decrease by 6.9%, or approximately $355 million under the rule. Payment rates would increase by 0.3% for cases that qualify for the higher standard LTCH Prospective Payment System rate. The proposed rule would also implement a
50
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
25% threshold policy (“25% rule”), under which payment adjustments are made when the number of cases an LTCH admits from a single hospital exceeds a specified threshold (generally 25%). Finally, in response to the federal district court’s review of the “Two-Midnight” payment policy in Shands Jacksonville Medical Center, Inc., et al. v. Burwell, No. 14-263 (D.D.C.) , CMS proposes to remove the 0.2% Medicare Part A hospital payment cut and also its effects for FYs 2014, 2015, and 2016 by adjusting the FY 2017 payment rates. The impact of this proposal would be to increase FY 2017 payments by approximately 0.8%.
On June 16, 2016, CMS published a proposed rule that would update the requirements that hospitals and critical access hospitals (“CAHs”) must meet to participate in the Medicare and Medicaid programs. The rule would apply new conditions of participation to such hospitals, including revisions to reduce readmissions, advance non-discrimination protections, increase infection control, and address other quality measures. If finalized, these new conditions of participation may potentially increase the operating costs of our tenants and operators.
On July 6, 2016, CMS issued a proposed rule regarding 2017 Medicare payment rates for Hospital Outpatient Departments (“HOPDs”) and Ambulatory Surgery Centers (“ASCs”). CMS Estimates that updates in the proposed rule would increase HOPD payments by approximately 1.6% and ASC payments by 1.2% in 2017. In addition, CMS proposes to implement section 603 of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015, which requires that, with the exception of dedicated emergency department services, services furnished in off-campus provider-based departments that began billing under the HOPD Prospective Payment System (“PPS”) on or after November 2, 2015 would no longer be paid under the HOPD PPS; instead, these services would be paid under other applicable Part B payment systems, including the Physician Fee Schedule (“PFS”), beginning January 1, 2017. Specifically, CMS would pay physicians at the “nonfacility” PFS rate and there would be no payment made directly to the hospital by Medicare.
HHS Office of Inspector General Recommendations Addressing SNF Billing
In the HHS, Office of Inspector General’s (“OIG’s”) April 2016 Compendium of Unimplemented Recommendations, OIG cited its prior September 2014 report addressing the need to reform the Medicare payment system for SNF services. In response to its findings that Medicare payments for therapy greatly exceeded SNF’s costs for therapy, OIG recommended, among other things, that CMS evaluate the extent to which Medicare payment rates for therapy should be reduced. Similarly, in May 2016, OIG issued a report finding that the improper payment rate for SNF claims increased by 4.10% in FY 2015 (compared to FY 2014) due to insufficient documentation. If followed, these reports and recommendations may impact our tenants and operators.
Other Related Laws, Initiatives, and Considerations
On February 12, 2016, CMS published a final rule regarding the obligations of Medicare providers to report and return overpayments arising under Parts A and B. The final rule, which became effective March 14, 2016, implements § 6402(a) of the Affordable Care Act, also known as the “60-day report and return statute,” which requires providers to report and return Medicare and Medicaid overpayments within the later of (a) 60 days after the overpayment is “identified,” or (b) the date any corresponding cost report is due, if applicable. An overpayment impermissibly retained under this statute could violate the federal False Claims Act and subject providers to potential Medicare and Medicaid program exclusion and penalties under the federal Civil Monetary Penalty statute.
On March 9, 2016, CMS released SNF utilization and payment data around facility costs and services. In its press release, CMS expressed concern that the amount of therapy provided for ultra-high and very high resource utilization groups is often very close to the minimum amount of minutes needed to qualify a patient for these categories. CMS referred the issue to Recovery Auditor Contractors for further investigation. On March 30, 2016, the Department of Justice launched 10 regional Elder Justice Task Forces to coordinate and enhance efforts to pursue nursing homes that provide grossly substandard care to their residents. We cannot predict the extent to which increased monitoring and auditing activities by government agencies may impact our operators.
On June 30, 2016, DOJ issued an interim rule increasing the penalties under the False Claims Act (“FCA”) from the current range of $5,500 to $11,000 per false claim, to a new range of $10,781 to $21,562. The interim rule takes effect August 1, 2016, and applies to false claims made after November 2, 2015.
Many of our operators and tenants are subject to federal and state privacy and security laws. There have been increased enforcement efforts under these laws, and we expect this trend to continue. Under the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (“HITECH”), state attorney generals have the right to prosecute Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) violations committed against residents of their states, and several such actions have been brought to-date. In addition, HITECH mandates that the Secretary of HHS conduct periodic compliance audits of HIPAA covered entities and business associates. On March 21, 2016, the HHS Office of Civil Rights announced the official start of the 2016 Phase 2 HIPAA
51
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Audit Program. Enforcement actions may stem from these audits, including civil monetary penalty fines or monetary settlements, which may impact an operator’s ability to meet their financial obligations to us.
United Kingdom
Brexit
On June 23, 2016, the United Kingdom (“UK”) held an “in-or-out referendum” on the UK’s membership of the European Union (“EU”), the result of which favored the exit of the UK from the EU (“Brexit”). A process of negotiation will determine the future terms of the UK’s relationship with the EU which could take many forms. In the meantime, the UK remains a member of the EU. The potential impact of Brexit is currently unclear, but may include reduced economic growth and volatility, changes to the regulatory environment and uncertainty in the capital markets. We cannot predict whether Brexit will have a material impact on our operators’ or tenants’ property or business.
National Minimum Wage
In the July 2015, Budget the UK government announced that it would introduce the National Living Wage at a premium of 50 pence above the National Minimum Wage to take effect from April 2016. The National Minimum Wage (Amendment) Regulations 2016 came into force on April 1, 2016 (“2016 Regulations”). The 2016 Regulations amend the Regulation of the National Minimum Wage Regulations 2015 to provide a National Living Wage rate of £7.20 an hour for workers aged 25 and over. The current National Minimum Wage for adults of £6.70 will continue to apply for workers aged 21 to 24. The 2016 Regulations also amend the National Minimum Wage Act 1998 by increasing the financial penalty payable by employers who underpay the National Minimum Wage from 100% to 200% of the underpayment due to each worker. The maximum fine for non-payment will be £20,000 per worker and employers who fail to pay will be banned from being a company director for up to 15 years.
Privacy
In the EU, data protection is governed by the EU Data Protection Directive 95/46/EC (the “Data Protection Directive”). The Data Protection Directive has been implemented in the UK by the Data Protection Act 1998 (the “Act”) which entered into force on March 2000 and is enforced by the Information Commissioner’s Office (“ICO”).
A new EU General Data Protection Regulation will replace the Data Protection Directive and impose a significant number of new obligations including, among others, a requirement to appoint data protection officers, having detailed documentation on the processing of personal data, carrying out privacy impact assessments in certain circumstances, providing standardized data protection notices, reporting security breaches without undue delay, and providing certain rights to individuals such as a right of erasure of personal data. The EU General Data Protection Regulation is expected to have significant enforcement powers with fines proposed by the European Commission of up to 4% of annual worldwide turnover or €20 million, whichever is greater. The EU General Data Protection Regulation was adopted in May 2016 and will enter into force in EU Member States on May 25, 2018. If the Regulation is adopted, we cannot predict whether it will have a material impact on our operators’ or tenants’ property or business.
Canada
Licensing and Regulation
British Columbia
The Community Care and Assisted Living Act, the Residential Care Regulation, and the Community Care and Assisted Living Regulation (together, the “B.C. Act”) regulate “community care facilities” (long-term care facilities) as premises used for the purpose of supervising vulnerable persons who require three or more prescribed services (from a list that includes regular assistance with activities of daily living; distribution of medication; management of cash resources; monitoring of food intake; structured behavior management and intervention; and psychosocial or physical rehabilitative therapy).
The B.C. Act also creates a separate regime for regulating “assisted living residences,” the definition of which changed in May 2016 to facilities providing one or more prescribed care services.
Quebec
52
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
In Québec, retirement homes are regulated by the Act Respecting Health Services and Social Services and the Regulation required to obtain a certificate of compliance based on operating standards for a private seniors’ residence. The required certificate of compliance is issued for a period of four years, is renewable and can only be validly transferred to another person with the written permission of the regional licensing agency.
Other Legislation
In Quebec, the Safety Code was amended in December 2015 to require that private seniors’ residences be equipped with a fire alarm and detection system, as well as the installation of a sprinkler system in certain private seniors’ residences. The amendments came into force March 18, 2016, except regarding the installation of the sprinkler system, which has a five year grace period, and comes into force December 2, 2020.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our unaudited consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make estimates and assumptions. Management considers an accounting estimate or assumption critical if:
· the nature of the estimates or assumptions is material due to the levels of subjectivity and judgment necessary to account for highly uncertain matters or the susceptibility of such matters to change; and
· the impact of the estimates and assumptions on financial condition or operating performance is material.
Management has discussed the development and selection of its critical accounting policies with the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Management believes the current assumptions and other considerations used to estimate amounts reflected in our unaudited consolidated financial statements are appropriate and are not reasonably likely to change in the future. However, since these estimates require assumptions to be made that were uncertain at the time the estimate was made, they bear the risk of change. If actual experience differs from the assumptions and other considerations used in estimating amounts reflected in our unaudited consolidated financial statements, the resulting changes could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated results of operations, liquidity and/or financial condition. Please refer to Note 2 to the financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 for further information regarding significant accounting policies that impact us. There have been no material changes to these policies in 2016.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q may contain “forward-looking” statements as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When the company uses words such as “may,” “will,” “intend,” “should,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “estimate” or similar expressions that do not relate solely to historical matters, it is making forward-looking statements. In particular, these forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, those relating to the company’s opportunities to acquire, develop or sell properties; the company’s ability to close its anticipated acquisitions, investments or dispositions on currently anticipated terms, or within currently anticipated timeframes; the expected performance of the company’s operators/tenants and properties; the company’s expected occupancy rates; the company’s ability to declare and to make distributions to shareholders; the company’s investment and financing opportunities and plans; the company’s continued qualification as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”); the company’s ability to access capital markets or other sources of funds; and the company’s ability to meet its earnings guidance. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties that may cause the company’s actual results to differ materially from the company’s expectations discussed in the forward-looking statements. This may be a result of various factors, including, but not limited to: the status of the economy; the status of capital markets, including availability and cost of capital; issues facing the health care industry, including compliance with, and changes to, regulations and payment policies, responding to government investigations and punitive settlements and operators’/tenants’ difficulty in cost-effectively obtaining and maintaining adequate liability and other insurance; changes in financing terms; competition within the health care and seniors housing industries; negative developments in the operating results or financial condition of operators/tenants, including, but not limited to, their ability to pay rent and repay loans; the company’s ability to transition or sell properties with profitable results; the failure to make new investments or acquisitions as and when anticipated; natural disasters and other acts of God affecting the company’s properties; the company’s ability to re-lease space at similar rates as vacancies occur; the company’s ability to timely reinvest sale proceeds at similar rates to assets sold; operator/tenant or joint venture partner bankruptcies or insolvencies; the cooperation of joint venture partners; government regulations affecting Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement rates and operational requirements; liability or contract claims by or against operators/tenants; unanticipated difficulties and/or expenditures relating to future investments or acquisitions; environmental laws affecting the company’s properties; changes in rules or practices governing the company’s financial reporting; the movement of U.S. and foreign currency exchange rates; the company’s ability to maintain its qualification as a REIT; and key management personnel recruitment and retention. Other important factors are identified in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, including factors identified under the headings
53
Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
“Business,” “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Finally, the company undertakes no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events or otherwise, or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those projected in any forward-looking statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to various market risks, including the potential loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We seek to mitigate the underlying foreign currency exposures with gains and losses on derivative contracts hedging these exposures. We seek to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in interest rates by matching the terms of new investments with new long-term fixed rate borrowings to the extent possible. We may or may not elect to use financial derivative instruments to hedge interest rate exposure. These decisions are principally based on our policy to match our variable rate investments with comparable borrowings, but are also based on the general trend in interest rates at the applicable dates and our perception of the future volatility of interest rates. This section is presented to provide a discussion of the risks associated with potential fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.
We historically borrow on our primary unsecured credit facility to acquire, construct or make loans relating to health care and seniors housing properties. Then, as market conditions dictate, we will issue equity or long-term fixed rate debt to repay the borrowings under our primary unsecured credit facility. We are subject to risks associated with debt financing, including the risk that existing indebtedness may not be refinanced or that the terms of refinancing may not be as favorable as the terms of current indebtedness. The majority of our borrowings were completed under indentures or contractual agreements that limit the amount of indebtedness we may incur. Accordingly, in the event that we are unable to raise additional equity or borrow money because of these limitations, our ability to acquire additional properties may be limited.
A change in interest rates will not affect the interest expense associated with our fixed rate debt. Interest rate changes, however, will affect the fair value of our fixed rate debt. Changes in the interest rate environment upon maturity of this fixed rate debt could have an effect on our future cash flows and earnings, depending on whether the debt is replaced with other fixed rate debt, variable rate debt or equity or repaid by the sale of assets. To illustrate the impact of changes in the interest rate markets, we performed a sensitivity analysis on our fixed rate debt instruments whereby we modeled the change in net present values arising from a hypothetical 1% increase in interest rates to determine the instruments’ change in fair value. The following table summarizes the analysis performed as of the dates indicated (in thousands):

Our variable rate debt, including our primary unsecured credit facility, is reflected at fair value. At June 30, 2016, we had $2,207,045,000 outstanding under our variable rate debt. Assuming no changes in outstanding balances, a 1% increase in interest rates would result in increased annual interest expense of $22,070,000. At December 31, 2015, we had $2,236,733,000 outstanding under our variable rate debt. Assuming no changes in outstanding balances, a 1% increase in interest rates would have resulted in increased annual interest expense of $22,367,000.
We are subject to currency fluctuations that may, from time to time, affect our financial condition and results of operations. Increases or decreases in the value of the Canadian Dollar or Pounds Sterling relative to the U.S. Dollar impact the amount of net income we earn from our investments in Canada and the United Kingdom. Based solely on our results for the three months ended June 30, 2016, including the impact of existing hedging arrangements, if these exchange rates were to increase or decrease by 10%, our net income from these investments would increase or decrease, as applicable, by less than $350,000. We will continue to mitigate these underlying foreign currency exposures with non-U.S. denominated borrowings and gains and losses on derivative contracts. If we increase our international presence through investments in, or acquisitions or development of, seniors housing and health care properties outside the U.S., we may also decide to transact additional business or borrow funds in currencies other than U.S. Dollars, Canadian Dollars or Pounds Sterling. To illustrate the impact of changes in foreign currency markets, we performed a sensitivity analysis on our derivative portfolio whereby we modeled the change in net present values arising from a hypothetical 1% increase in foreign currency exchange rates to determine the instruments’ change in fair value. The following table summarizes the results of the analysis performed (dollars in thousands):

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file with or submit to the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. No changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
From time to time, there are various legal proceedings pending to which we are a party or to which some of our properties are subject arising in the normal course of business. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes from the risk factors identified under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

If Executive continues to serve as President of the Welltower Foundation through December 31, 2017, the Company and Executive may
2
agree that Executive may continue to provide services to the Company as shall be mutually agreed between the parties, but there will be no automatic successive employment periods following December 31, 2017.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Cause” shall be limited to (i) action by Executive involving willful disloyalty to the Company, such as embezzlement, fraud, misappropriation of corporate assets or a breach of the covenants set forth in Section 6 below; or (ii) Executive being convicted of a felony; or (iii) Executive being convicted of any lesser crime or offense committed in connection with the performance of her duties hereunder or involving moral turpitude; or (iv) the intentional and willful failure by Executive to substantially perform her duties hereunder as directed by the Company (other than any such failure resulting from Executive’s incapacity due to physical or mental disability) after a demand for substantial performance is made on the Executive by the Company’s CEO.
b. Scope of Services . During the Transition Period, Executive shall devote such percentage of her business time and effort to the performance of her services as President of the Welltower Foundation as may be mutually agreed upon by the Company and Executive, not exceeding 20 hours per month. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6 of this Agreement, Executive's obligations hereunder will not preclude Executive from performing services for an unaffiliated third party so long as the performance of such services does not interfere with Executive’s performance of services hereunder. Neither party expects that Executive will provide services to the Company in the future at a level that exceeds the level set forth in this Section 4(b) and it is the parties' intent that Executive will have experienced a "separation from service" as defined in Section 409A of the Code no later than the Transition Date. During the Transition Period, Executive shall be afforded office space and administrative support as the Company may reasonably determine is necessary or desirable for Executive’s performance of her services.

d. Benefits .

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive’s portion of the premiums for participation in the Company’s group health plans for which Executive is eligible will be on a post-tax basis and the Company’s portion of any premiums will be treated as taxable income to Executive if necessary to avoid adverse tax consequences to Executive resulting from the application of Section 105(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “ Code ”). Executive shall also be eligible to continue participation in any other employee benefit plan sponsored by the Company in which she is eligible to participate by the terms of such plan. Executive shall not be eligible to accrue PTO during the Transition Period. The Company shall also reimburse Executive for the cost of the premium payment due in early 2017 for renewal of Executive’s supplemental life insurance policy with North American Company for Life and Health Insurance to be pro-rated through the end of the Transition Period. The Company shall also pay for the cost of the Executive's annual physical exam conducted on or before January 31, 2017 in accordance with the terms of the Company’s policy on executive annual physicals.
e. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all other personal benefits, fringe benefits and perquisites shall cease as of the Transition Date. Except as set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement, Executive shall not be eligible for severance benefits at such time her employment terminates.
5. PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OF TRANSITION PERIOD
a. The following payments (to which Executive would not otherwise be entitled) are being offered in consideration for Executive’s execution and delivery of this Agreement and for Executive’s (or the Executive’s estate’s) execution and delivery of a Release of Claims attached hereto as Attachment B (the “ Transition Period Termination Release ”), and it becoming effective by the twenty-eighth (28 th ) day following the end of the Transition Period (or such later period as may be required by law in order to make the Transition Period Termination Release fully effective), and is subject to Executive’s compliance with the covenants and other obligations set forth in Section 3 and Section 6 of this Agreement, all of which must be satisfied in full in order for the payments and other benefits set forth below in this Section 5(a) to be earned. The following payments shall not be payable in the event Executive’s employment is terminated during the Transition Period for “Cause” (as defined above).
3
i. A lump sum payment in shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the difference between (A) the number of shares that the Executive would have been eligible to receive under the 2015-2017 LTIP based on actual performance had Executive continued employment with the Company through December 31, 2017 and (B) the number of shares paid to Executive pursuant to Section 2(c)(i) of this Agreement. Executive shall also receive a cash payment equal to the value of accrued dividend equivalents on such shares for the performance period.

ii. A lump sum payment in shares of the Company’s common stock equal to the difference between (A) the number of shares that the Executive would have been eligible to receive under the 2016-2018 LTIP based on actual performance had Executive continued employment with the Company through December 31, 2018 and (B) the number of shares paid to Executive pursuant to Section 2(c)(ii) of this Agreement.

Executive further agrees that, upon the Transition Date, all Confidential Information in her possession that is in written or other tangible form shall be returned to the Company and shall not be retained by Executive or furnished to any third party, in any form except as provided herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 6(c) shall not apply to Confidential Information that (i) was publicly known at the time of disclosure to Executive, (ii) becomes publicly known or available thereafter other than by any means in violation of this Agreement or any other duty owed to the Company by Executive, (iii) is lawfully disclosed to Executive by a third party, or (iv) is required to be disclosed by law or by any court, arbitrator or administrative or legislative body with actual or apparent jurisdiction to order Executive to disclose or make accessible any information or is voluntarily disclosed by Executive to law enforcement or other governmental authorities. Furthermore, in accordance with the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016, Executive will not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (x) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney; and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (y) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. As used in this Agreement, Confidential Information means, without limitation, any non-public confidential or proprietary information disclosed to Executive or known by Executive as a consequence of or through Executive’s relationship with the Company, in any form, including electronic media. Confidential Information also includes, but is not limited to the Company’s business plans and financial information, marketing plans, and business opportunities. Nothing herein shall limit in any way any obligation Executive may have relating to Confidential Information under any other agreement or promise to the Company. Executive hereby represents and warrants that she has not breached any of her obligations under Section 9 of her Employment Agreement.
d. Non-Disparagement . Executive will not make or direct anyone else to make on Executive’s behalf any disparaging or untruthful remarks or statements, whether oral or written, about the Company, its operations or its products, services, affiliates, officers, directors, employees, or agents, or issue any communication that reflects adversely on or encourages any adverse action against the Company. Executive will not make any direct or indirect written or oral statements to the press, television, radio or other media or other external persons or entities concerning any matters pertaining to the business and affairs of the Company, its affiliates or any of its officers or directors. The Company agrees not to cause, and shall direct its officers or senior executives not to make on its behalf any disparaging or untruthful remarks or statements about Executive’s employment with the Company following the Transition Date. The restrictions described in this section shall not apply to any truthful statements made in response to a subpoena or other compulsory legal process or to law enforcement or other governmental authorities.
e. Return of Company Property . On or before the Transition Date, and as a condition to Executive’s receipt of consideration payable under Section 2 of this Agreement, Executive shall have returned to the Company all hard and soft copies of records, lists, books, documents, materials, software, and files in her possession or control, whether recorded, written or computer readable, which contain or relate to Confidential Information or sensitive information obtained by Executive in conjunction with her employment with the Company. Executive agrees that she will not keep any copies or excerpts of any of the above items. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may retain her list of personal contacts and any other property that the Company determines is necessary in order for her to perform her duties during the Transition Period, including, but not limited to, keys, phones, mobile devices, laptops and parking permits.
5
f. Cooperation . Executive will fully cooperate with the Company in all matters relating to her employment, including the winding up of work performed in Executive’s prior positions and the orderly transition of such work to other Company employees. Executive shall assist the Company, in connection with any litigation, investigation or other matter involving Executive’s tenure as an employee, officer or director of the Company, including, but not limited to, attending meetings with Company representatives and counsel and giving truthful testimony in any legal proceeding involving the Company. The Company will reimburse Executive for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in rendering such assistance to the Company (including attorney’s fees that may be incurred in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Company’s Bylaws and Certificate of Incorporation), and will provide such reimbursement no later than ninety (90) days following the Company’s receipt of supporting documentation of incurrence of these expenses.
g. Restrictions on Sale of Company Shares . Executive agrees that from the Transition Date until the end of the Transition Period, Executive will be subject to the same provisions of the Company’s Insider Trading Policy as any person who is then a non-executive employee. Furthermore, from the Transition Date until the end of the Transition Period, Executive will not sell any shares of the Company’s common stock except during “open trading window” periods in compliance with such policy.
h. For the avoidance of doubt, any breach of Section 6(a) through 6(g) of this Agreement shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding Section 9 of this Agreement, the parties agree that damages would be an inadequate remedy for the Company in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Executive of Section 6(a), 6(b), 6(c) and 6(e), or for the Company or Executive in the event of a breach or threatened breach of Section 6(d). In the event of any such breach or threatened breach, the non-breaching party may, either with or without pursuing any potential damage remedies and without being required to post a bond, obtain from a court of competent jurisdiction, and enforce, an injunction prohibiting the other party from violating this Agreement and requiring the other party to comply with the terms of this Agreement. Executive acknowledges that the Company may present this Agreement to any third party with which the Executive has accepted employment, or otherwise entered into a business relationship, that the Company contends violates this Section 6, if the Company has reason to believe Executive has or may have breached this Agreement.
a. In exchange for the commitments of the Company as set forth in this Agreement, which Executive acknowledges and agrees provide consideration to which Executive would not otherwise be entitled, Executive agrees to release and discharge unconditionally the Company and any of its past or present subsidiaries, affiliates, related entities, predecessors, merged entities and parent entities, benefit plans, and all of their respective past and present officers, directors, stockholders, employees, benefit plan administrators and trustees, agents, attorneys, insurers, representatives, affiliates, and all of their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Company Released Parties”), from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, demands, obligations, grievances, suits, losses, debts and expenses (including attorney’s fees and costs), damages and claims in law or in equity of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, Executive ever had, now has, or may ever have against any Company Released Party up to and including the day on which Executive signs this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the claims Executive is waiving include, but are not limited to, (a) any claims, demands, and causes of action alleging violations of public policy, or of any federal, state, or local law, statute, regulation, executive order, or ordinance, or of any duties or other obligations of any kind or description arising in law or equity under federal, state, or local law, regulation, ordinance, or public policy having any bearing whatsoever on the terms or conditions of Executive’s employment with or by the Company or the termination or resignation of Executive’s employment with the Company or any association or transaction with or by the Company; (b) all claims of discrimination or harassment on the basis of sex, race, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, disability, veteran status or any other legally protected category, and of retaliation; (c) all claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act, 42 U.S.C. § 1981, as amended, and all other federal, state and local fair employment and anti-discrimination laws, all as amended; (d) all claims under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act and similar state and local statutes, all as amended; (e) all claims under the National Labor Relations Act, as amended; (f) all claims under the Family and Medical Leave Act and other federal, state and local leave laws, all as amended; (g) all claims under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (except with respect to accrued vested benefits under any retirement or 401(k) plan in accordance with the terms of such plan and applicable law); (h) all claims under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the False Claims Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Commodity Exchange Act, the Consumer Financial Protection Act, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and the EU Competition Law; (i) all claims of whistleblowing and retaliation under federal, state and local laws; (j) all claims under any principle of common law or sounding in tort or contract; (k) all claims concerning any right to reinstatement; and (l) all claims for attorneys’ fees, costs, damages or other relief (monetary, equitable or otherwise), whether under
6
federal, state or local law, whether statutory, regulatory or common law, to the fullest extent permitted by law. Further, each of the persons and entities released herein is intended to and shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement. This release of claims does not affect or waive any claim for workers’ compensation benefits, unemployment benefits or other legally non-waivable rights or claims; claims that arise after Executive signs this Agreement; Executive’s rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses under the bylaws of the Company or under any applicable directors and officers liability insurance policy with respect to Executive’s liability as an employee, director or officer of the Company; Executive’s right to exercise any and all Company stock options held by Executive that are exercisable as of the Transition Date during the applicable period of exercise and in accordance with all other terms of those options and the stock options plans, agreements, and notices under which such options were granted; or Executive’s right to enforce the terms of this Agreement. Additionally, nothing in this Agreement waives or limits Executive’s right to file a charge with, provide information to or cooperate in any investigation of or proceeding brought by a government agency (though Executive acknowledges Executive is not entitled to recover money or other relief with respect to the claims waived in this Agreement).
b. Executive represents and warrants that she has not filed any claim, charge or complaint against the Company or any of the released parties based upon any of the matters released in (a) above.
c. Executive acknowledges that: (i) the commitments of the Company under this Agreement, including the benefits provided in Sections 2 and 5 of this Agreement, constitute adequate consideration for the release of claims set forth in this Section 7(a), and (ii) the commitments of the Company under this Agreement, including the payments provided in Section 5 of this Agreement constitute adequate consideration for the release of claims set forth in the Transition Period Termination Release.
d. Executive intends that this release of claims cover all claims described in Section 7(a) above whether or not known to Executive. Executive further recognizes the risk that, subsequent to the execution of this Agreement, Executive may incur loss, damage or injury which Executive attributes to the claims encompassed by this release. Executive also expressly waives and relinquishes, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all rights she may have under California Civil Code Section 1542, or the comparable provisions of the laws of any other jurisdiction, which provides as follows:
“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”
e. Executive represents and warrants that there has been no assignment or other transfer of any interest in any claim by Executive that is covered by the release set forth in Section 7(a).
f. The Company, with the intention of binding itself and its predecessors and successors, does hereby waive and release Executive from any and all claims, causes of action, demands, obligations, grievances, suits, losses, debts and expenses (including attorney’s fees and costs), damages and claims in law or in equity related to or arising out of Executive’s employment and Employment Agreement with the Company and the end of that employment, whether known and unknown, asserted or unasserted, which the Company has or may have against Executive as of the date of execution of this Agreement. This release shall not include the following: (1) any act or omission by Executive that is a material violation of any statute, regulation, ordinance or other law, (2) any willful or deliberate misconduct by Executive, and (3) any proceeding as to which a release of claims is not permitted under applicable law.
8. REVIEW AND REVOCATION OF AGREEMENT. Executive acknowledges and agrees: (i) that she has been advised to consult an attorney regarding this Agreement and the releases set forth herein or attached hereto as Attachment B before executing this Agreement or the Transition Period Termination Release; (ii) that she was given 21 days to review and consider signing this Agreement, although she may, at her discretion, knowingly and voluntarily, sign and return the Agreement at any earlier time, but Executive may not sign and return the Agreement until on or after the Transition Date; (iii) that modification of this Agreement does not restart this 21 day consideration period; (iv) that she is waiving rights or claims which may be waived by law in exchange for consideration which is not otherwise due to Executive, including claims and rights under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (the “ADEA”), and as otherwise described in this Agreement; (v) that rights or claims that may arise after the date this Agreement is executed, including those arising under the ADEA, are not waived by this Agreement; (vi) that at any time within 7 days after signing this Agreement, she may revoke the Agreement; and (vii) that this Agreement is not enforceable until the revocation period has passed without a revocation.
7
To revoke this Agreement, Executive must send a written statement of revocation delivered by certified mail to Welltower Inc., Attn: Chief Executive Officer, 5400 Dorr Street, Toledo, OH 43615. This revocation must be received no later than the seventh (7 th ) day following Executive’s execution of this Agreement.
9. ARBITRATION. Subject to Section 6(h) hereof, all claims, disputes, questions, or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement and Executive’s employment hereunder, including without limitation the construction or application of any of the terms, provisions, or conditions of this Agreement and any claims for any alleged discrimination, harassment, or retaliation in violation of any federal, state or local law, will be resolved exclusively in final and binding arbitration held under the auspices of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with AAA’s then current Employment Arbitration Rules, or successor rules then in effect. The arbitration will be held in Toledo, Ohio and will be conducted and administered by AAA or, in the event AAA does not then conduct arbitration proceedings, a similarly reputable arbitration administrator. Executive and the Company will select a mutually acceptable, neutral arbitrator from among the AAA panel of arbitrators. Except as provided by this Agreement, the Federal Arbitration Act will govern the administration of the arbitration proceedings. The arbitrator will apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of the State of Ohio, or federal law, if Ohio law is preempted, and the arbitrator is without jurisdiction to apply any different substantive law. Executive and the Company will each be allowed to engage in adequate discovery, the scope of which will be determined by the arbitrator consistent with the nature of the claim[s] in dispute. The arbitrator will have the authority to entertain a motion to dismiss and/or a motion for summary judgment by any party and will apply the standards governing such motions under the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. The arbitrator will render a written award and supporting opinion that will set forth the arbitrator’s findings of fact and conclusions of law. Judgment upon the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Company will pay the arbitrator’s fees, as well as all administrative fees, associated with the arbitration. Each party will be responsible for paying its own attorneys’ fees and costs (including expert witness fees and costs, if any), provided, however, that the arbitrator may award attorney’s fees and costs to the prevailing party, except as prohibited by law. The existence and subject matter of all arbitration proceedings, including, any settlements or awards there under, shall remain confidential. In entering into this Agreement, both parties are waiving the right to a trial by judge or jury.
a. This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code and will be interpreted in a manner intended to comply with Code Section 409A. Any provision that would cause this Agreement or any payment hereof to fail to satisfy Code Section 409A of the Code shall have no force or effect until amended to the minimum extent required to comply with Code Section 409A, which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Code Section 409A. A termination of employment shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of any provision of this Agreement providing for the payment of amounts or benefits that may be considered “deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A (after taking into account all exclusions applicable to such payments or benefits under Code Section 409A) upon or following a termination of employment unless such termination is also a “Separation from Service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A and, for purposes of any such provision of this Agreement, references to a “retirement,” “termination,” “termination of employment” or like terms shall mean Separation from Service.
b. Any payment scheduled to be made under this Agreement that may be considered “deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A (after taking into account all exclusions applicable to such payments or benefits under Code Section 409A), that are otherwise due on or within the six-month period following the Transition Date will accrue during such six-month period and will instead become payable in a lump sum payment on the first business day period following such six month period. Furthermore, if any other payments of money or other benefits due to Executive under this Agreement could cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Code Section 409A, such payments or other benefits shall be deferred if deferral will make such payment or other benefits compliant under Code Section 409A, or otherwise such payment or other benefits shall be restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner, determined by the Company, that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax. To the extent any reimbursements or in-kind benefits due to Executive under this Agreement constitute “deferred compensation” under Code Section 409A (after taking into account all exclusions applicable to such payments or benefits under Section 409A), any such reimbursements or in-kind benefits shall be paid to Executive in a manner consistent with Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv).
c. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, Executive’s right to any payment (including each installment payment) under this Agreement shall be treated as a “separate payment” within the meaning of Code Section 409A.
d. The Company shall consult with Executive in good faith regarding the implementation of the provisions of this section; provided that neither the Company nor any of its employees or representatives shall have any liability to Executive with respect thereto.
8
11. NO ADMISSION OF LIABILITY. Nothing in this Agreement will constitute or be construed in any way as an admission of any liability or wrongdoing whatsoever by the Company or Executive.
12. INTEGRATED AGREEMENT. This Agreement is intended by the parties to be a complete and final expression of their rights and duties respecting the subject matter of this Agreement and supersedes all prior agreements, promises, covenants, arrangements, communications, representations or warranties, whether oral or written, by any officer, employee or representative of any party hereto, and any prior agreement of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter contained herein, including but not limited to the Employment Agreement, except as expressly set forth herein. Except as expressly provided herein, nothing in this Agreement is intended to negate Executive’s agreement to abide by the Company’s policies while serving as an employee of the Company (or thereafter to the extent provided by such policies), including but not limited to the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and its Employee Handbook, or any other agreement governing the disclosure and/or use of proprietary information, which Executive signed while working with the Company or its predecessors; nor to waive any of Executive’s obligations under state and federal trade secret laws.
13. LEGAL FEES . The Company shall reimburse Executive up to $5,000, in the aggregate, for Executive’s reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses incurred in connection with negotiating and documenting this Agreement. The Company will provide such reimbursements no later than ninety (90) days following the Company’s receipt of supporting documentation of incurrence of these expenses, but in any event no later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which those expenses were incurred and otherwise in compliance with Section 409A of the Code.
14. TAXES AND OTHER WITHHOLDINGS. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company may withhold from amounts payable hereunder all federal, state, local and foreign taxes and other amounts that are required to be withheld by applicable laws or regulations, and the withholding of any amount shall be treated as payment thereof for purposes of determining whether Executive has been paid amounts to which she is entitled. Executive acknowledges that (i) the Company has made no representation to Executive as to the tax treatment of any compensation or benefits to be paid to Executive under this Agreement and (ii) the Company has no obligation to “gross-up” any amount payable to Executive under this Agreement for taxes payable by Executive thereon.
15. SURVIVAL . The covenants, agreements, representations and warranties contained in or made in Section 3, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 12 of this Agreement shall survive any termination of Executive’s services hereunder or any termination of this Agreement.
16. WAIVER. Neither party shall, by mere lapse of time, without giving notice or taking other action hereunder, be deemed to have waived any breach by the other party of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Further, the waiver by either party of a particular breach of this Agreement by the other shall neither be construed as, nor constitute, a continuing waiver of such breach or of other breaches of the same or any other provision of this Agreement.
17. MODIFICATION. This Agreement may not be modified unless such modification is embodied in writing, signed by the party against whom the modification is to be enforced.
18. NOTICE . Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any notice to either party hereunder shall be in writing and sent by overnight courier, certified mail, or registered mail (return receipt requested), postage prepaid, addressed as follows (or to such other address as such party may designate in writing from time to time):
If to the Company:
Welltower Inc.
5400 Dorr Street
Toledo, OH 43615
Attention: Legal Department
If to the Executive, at the address on file with the Company’s Human Resources
Department.
The actual date of mailing, as shown by a mailing receipt therefor, shall determine the time at which notice was given.
9
19. ASSIGNMENT AND SUCCESSORS. The Company shall have the right to assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement to an entity that, directly or indirectly, acquires all or substantially all of the assets or the business of the Company. The rights and obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall inure to the benefit and shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Company. Executive shall not have any right to assign her obligations under this Agreement and shall only be entitled to assign her rights under this Agreement upon her death, solely to the extent permitted by this Agreement, or as otherwise agreed to by the Company.
20. SEVERABILITY. Each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement. Moreover, if any of the provisions contained in this Agreement is determined by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable because it is excessively broad in scope, whether as to duration, activity, geographic application, subject or otherwise, it shall be construed, by limiting or reducing it to the extent legally permitted, so as to be enforceable to the extent compatible with then applicable law in order to achieve the intent of the parties.
10
21. GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement will be construed, interpreted, governed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio, without regard to its conflict of laws principles.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF , the Company has caused this Agreement to be duly executed, and the Executive has hereunto set her hand, as of the day and year first written above.

RELEASE OF CLAIMS AGREEMENT
UPON TERMINATION OF TRANSITION PERIOD
I entered into a Transition Agreement with Welltower Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, merged entities and affiliates, and its and their respective predecessor and successor entities, “the Company”) dated June 30, 2016 (the “Transition Agreement”).
I hereby acknowledge that:
1. A blank copy of this Release of Claims Agreement (“Release Agreement”) was
attached as Attachment B to the Transition Agreement when it was given to me for review. I have had more time to consider signing this Release Agreement than the ample time I was given to consider signing the Transition Agreement, and in any event more than 21 days have elapsed from the date that I received this Release Agreement. I may revoke this Release Agreement within seven (7) days after I sign it in the manner set forth in paragraph 9 below. I understand that I am giving up claims and rights under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 as amended, and as described in the Transition Agreement. Additionally, I understand that this Release Agreement is not enforceable until the revocation period has passed without revocation. If this 7-day period expires without revocation, I understand that this Release Agreement will become final and effective on the eighth day following the date I sign this Release Agreement, which day will be the “Effective Date” of this Release Agreement. I was advised to discuss the Transition Agreement and this Release Agreement with an attorney before executing any of those documents.
2. I am not permitted to sign this Release Agreement until after my last day of employment with the Company.
3. The benefits payable under Section 5 of the Transition Agreement are only payable to me if I sign this Release Agreement and it becomes effective and irrevocable prior to the twenty-eighth (28 th ) day following the end of my employment or such later period as may be required by law in order to make this Release Agreement fully effective.
4. My employment actually terminated before I signed this Release Agreement and, in exchange for receiving benefits payable under Section 5 of the Transition Agreement, I hereby agree that this Release Agreement will be a part of my Transition Agreement and that my Transition Agreement, including without limitation, the release of claims set forth in Section 7 of the Transition Agreement, will be construed and applied as if I signed it on the day I signed this Release Agreement. This extends my commitments, covenants and other obligations under the Transition Agreement, and the release of claims in the Transition Agreement that arose following my Transition Date (as defined in the Transition Agreement) through the end of my employment.
5. I agree to release and discharge unconditionally the Company and any of its past or present subsidiaries, affiliates, related entities, predecessors, merged entities and parent entities, benefit plans, and all of their respective past and present officers, directors, stockholders, employees, benefit plan administrators and trustees, agents, attorneys, insurers, representatives, affiliates, and all of their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Company Released Parties”), from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, demands, obligations, grievances, suits, losses, debts and expenses (including attorney’s fees and costs), damages and claims in law or in equity of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, I ever had, now have, or may ever have against any Company Released Party up to and including the day on which I sign this Release Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the claims I am waiving include, but are not limited to, (a) any claims, demands, and causes of action alleging violations of public policy, or of any federal, state, or local law, statute, regulation, executive order, or ordinance, or of any duties or other obligations of any kind or description arising in law or equity under federal, state, or local law, regulation, ordinance, or public policy having any bearing whatsoever on the terms or conditions of my employment with or by the Company or the termination or resignation of my employment with the Company or any association or transaction with or by the Company; (b) all claims of discrimination or harassment on the basis of sex, race, age, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, disability, veteran status or any other legally protected category, and of retaliation; (c) all claims under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, the Older Workers Benefit Protection Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Genetic Information Nondiscrimination Act, 42 U.S.C. § 1981, as amended, and all other federal, state and local fair employment and anti-discrimination laws, all as amended; (d) all claims under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act and similar state and local statutes, all as amended; (e) all claims under the National Labor Relations Act, as amended; (f) all claims under the Family and Medical Leave Act and other federal, state and local leave laws, all as amended; (g) all claims under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (except with respect to accrued vested benefits under any retirement or 401(k) plan in accordance with the terms of such plan and applicable law); (h) all claims under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the False Claims Act, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
13
Commodity Exchange Act, the Consumer Financial Protection Act, the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and the EU Competition Law; (i) all claims of whistleblowing and retaliation under federal, state and local laws; (j) all claims under any principle of common law or sounding in tort or contract; (k) all claims concerning any right to reinstatement; and (l) all claims for attorneys’ fees, costs, damages or other relief (monetary, equitable or otherwise), whether under federal, state or local law, whether statutory, regulatory or common law, to the fullest extent permitted by law. Further, each of the persons and entities released herein is intended to and shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement. This release of claims does not affect or waive any claim for workers’ compensation benefits, unemployment benefits or other legally non-waivable rights or claims; claims that arise after I sign this Release Agreement; claims for indemnification or advancement of expenses under the bylaws of the Company or under any applicable directors and officers liability insurance policy with respect to my liability as an employee, director or officer of the Company; my right to exercise any and all Company stock options held by me that are exercisable as of the end of the Transition Period during the applicable period of exercise and in accordance with all other terms of those options and the stock options plans, agreements, and notices under which such options were granted; or my right to enforce the terms of the Transition Agreement. Additionally, nothing in this Release Agreement waives or limits my right to file a charge with, provide information to or cooperate in any investigation of or proceeding brought by a government agency (though I acknowledge I am not entitled to recover money or other relief with respect to the claims waived in this Release Agreement).
6. I have returned to the Company all hard and soft copies of records, lists, books, documents, materials, software, and files in my possession or control, whether recorded, written or computer readable, which contain or relate to Confidential Information or sensitive information that I obtained in conjunction with my employment with the Company, as well as all other Company-owned property. I took all reasonable steps to protect the confidentiality of such Company information during my employment and have not kept any copies or excerpts of any of the above items.
