NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data or as otherwise stated)

 

Note 1.  Basis of Presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Senior Housing Properties Trust and its subsidiaries, or we, us, or our, are unaudited.  Certain information and disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted.  We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading.  However, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, or our Annual Report.  In the opinion of our management, all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  All material intercompany transactions and balances among us and our consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated.  Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year.  Reclassifications have been made to the prior year’s financial statements to conform to the current year’s presentation.  These reclassifications were made to conform the prior periods’ rental income, property operating expenses, general and administrative expenses, interest and other income and impairment of assets to the current classification.  These reclassifications had no effect on net income or shareholders’ equity.

 

Note 2.  Recent Accounting Pronouncements

 

In January 2012, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRS .  This update clarified the application of existing fair value measurement requirements.  This update also required reporting entities to disclose additional information regarding fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.  This update was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  The implementation of this update did not cause any material changes to the disclosures in, or presentation of, our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2012, we adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, Presentation of Comprehensive Income .  This update eliminated the option to report other comprehensive income and its components in the statement of shareholders’ equity.  This update was intended to enhance comparability between entities that report under GAAP and to provide a more consistent method of presenting non-owner transactions that affect an entity’s equity.  This standard was effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  The implementation of this update did not cause any material changes to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 3.  Real Estate Properties

 

At September 30, 2012, we owned 384 properties located in 40 states and Washington, D.C.

 

In February 2012, we acquired a senior living community located in Alabama with 92 living units for approximately $11,300, excluding closing costs.  We recorded intangible assets of approximately $583 related to this acquisition.  A subsidiary of Five Star Quality Care, Inc., which, together with its subsidiaries, we refer to in this report as Five Star, manages this community for our account pursuant to a long term management agreement.  We funded this acquisition using cash on hand.  As of September 30, 2012, we own 30 communities that are managed by Five Star, or the Managed Communities.  We use the taxable REIT subsidiary, or TRS, structure authorized by the Real Estate Investment Trust Investment Diversification and Empowerment Act, or RIDEA, for our Managed

In May 2012, we entered into an operations transfer agreement, or the Operations Transfer Agreement, with Sunrise Senior Living, Inc., or Sunrise, and Five Star related to 10 senior living communities, or the 10 Communities, that we were then leasing to Sunrise.  The Operations Transfer Agreement provides that we and Sunrise will accelerate the December 31, 2013 termination date of these Sunrise leases, that we will lease the 10 Communities to our TRS and that Five Star will manage the 10 Communities pursuant to long term management agreements.  The Operations Transfer Agreement provides that these transactions will occur when we and Five Star have obtained required regulatory approvals to operate the 10 Communities.  In September and October 2012, we and Sunrise terminated Sunrise’s leases for three and five of the 10 Communities, respectively, and we entered into management agreements with Five Star with respect to these eight communities.  We currently expect the termination of the leases for, and the

transition of the operations of, the remaining two communities to occur before December 31, 2012.  As a result of these lease terminations, we recorded a loss on lease terminations of approximately $104 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012.  Also, as a result of the three lease terminations in September 2012, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recognized approximately $350 of percentage rent that is included in rental income in our condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income as the contingencies for recognizing that income were then met.  Pursuant to the Operations Transfer Agreement, we paid Sunrise $1,000 to purchase the inventory and certain improvements owned by Sunrise at these 10 Communities, which were or will be transferred to our TRS.  The termination of the leases for those remaining two communities and Five Star’s management of those communities on our behalf are subject to conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals.

 

In July 2012, we sold one MOB located in Massachusetts with approximately 18,900 square feet for a sale price of approximately $1,100 and recorded a loss on the sale of this property of approximately $101.  At September 30, 2012, one of our senior living communities located in Pennsylvania is classified as held for sale.  This property is included in real estate properties in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and has a net book value of approximately $850 at both September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

 

We periodically evaluate our properties for impairments. Impairment indicators may include declining tenant occupancy, weak or declining tenant profitability, cash flow or liquidity, our decision to dispose of an asset before the end of its estimated useful life and legislative, market or industry changes that could permanently reduce the value of a property. If indicators of impairment are present, we evaluate the carrying value of the affected property by comparing it to the expected future undiscounted net cash flows to be generated from that property. If the sum of these expected future net cash flows is less than the carrying value, we reduce the net carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded an impairment of assets charge of $3,071 to reduce the carrying value of one of our properties to its estimated sale price less costs to sell.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded impairment of assets charges of $1,028 and $1,194, respectively, to reduce the carrying value of one and three of our properties, respectively, to their estimated sales prices less costs to sell.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, pursuant to the terms of our existing leases with Five Star, we purchased $4,156 and $18,249, respectively, of improvements made to our properties leased to Five Star, and, as a result, the annual rent payable to us by Five Star increased by approximately $335 and $1,472, respectively.

 

The allocation of the purchase price of certain of our acquisitions described above is based upon preliminary estimates of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed.  Consequently, amounts preliminarily allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed could change significantly from those used in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Note 4.  Unrealized Gain / Loss on Investments

 

As of September 30, 2012, we owned 250,000 common shares of CommonWealth REIT, or CWH, and 4,235,000 common shares of Five Star, which are carried at fair market value in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Cumulative other comprehensive income shown in our condensed consolidated balance sheets includes the net unrealized gain or loss on investments determined as the net difference between the value at quoted market prices of our CWH and Five Star shares as of September 30, 2012 ($14.56 and $5.11 per share, respectively) and our weighted average costs at the time we

acquired these shares, as adjusted to reflect any share splits or combinations ($26.00 and $3.36 per share, respectively).

 

Note 5.  Loan Receivable

 

In May 2011, we and Five Star entered into a loan agreement, or the Bridge Loan, under which we agreed to lend Five Star up to $80,000 to fund a portion of Five Star’s purchase of a portfolio of six senior living communities.  By September 30, 2011, Five Star had completed its acquisition of these communities and had borrowed all $80,000 of this Bridge Loan.  By December 31, 2011, Five Star had repaid $42,000 of those borrowings.  In April 2012, Five Star paid the remaining balance of $38,000, resulting in the termination of this Bridge Loan.  The Bridge Loan was secured by mortgages on three of the senior living communities that Five Star acquired and on four other senior living communities owned by Five Star.  The Bridge Loan bore interest at a rate equal to the annual rates of interest applicable to our borrowings under our revolving credit facility, plus 1%.  We recognized interest income from this Bridge Loan of $314 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and $187 and $245 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, which are included in interest and other income in our condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

 

Note 6.  Indebtedness

 

Our principal debt obligations at September 30, 2012 were: our $750,000 unsecured revolving credit facility; four public issuances of unsecured senior notes, including: $250,000 principal amount due 2016 at an annual interest rate of 4.30%, $200,000 principal amount due 2020 at an annual interest rate of 6.75%, $300,000 principal amount due 2021 at an annual interest rate of 6.75% and $350,000 principal amount due 2042 at an annual interest rate of 5.625%; and $702,636 aggregate principal amount of mortgages secured by 56 of our properties with maturity dates from 2013 to 2043.  The 56 mortgaged properties had a carrying value of $975,116 at September 30, 2012.  We also have two properties subject to capital leases totaling $13,900 at September 30, 2012; these two properties had a carrying value of $15,667 at September 30, 2012.

 

In connection with the acquisitions discussed in Note 3 above, during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we assumed $112,153 of mortgage debt, which was recorded at an aggregate fair value of $117,271.  These mortgages have a weighted average interest rate of 5.77% and a weighted average maturity of 4.6 years.  We recorded the assumed mortgages at their fair value, which exceeded their outstanding principal balances by $5,118.  We determined the fair value of the assumed mortgages using a market approach based upon Level 2 inputs (significant other observable inputs) in the fair value hierarchy.

 

In January 2012, we repaid all $225,000 of our 8.625% unsecured senior notes at their maturity date.  We funded this repayment using borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

 

In February 2012, we paid in full a mortgage loan encumbering one of our properties that had a principal balance of approximately $12,400, an interest rate of 6.03% and a maturity date in March 2012.  In April 2012, we paid in full 17 mortgage loans encumbering 17 of our properties that had an aggregate principal balance of $32,576, weighted average interest rate of 6.95% and maturity dates in June and July 2012.  In June 2012, we paid in full a mortgage loan encumbering one of our properties that had a principal balance of approximately $3,140, an interest rate of 6.07% and a maturity date in September 2012.  In October 2012, we paid in full a mortgage loan encumbering one of our properties that had a principal balance of approximately $4,159, an interest rate of 6.50% and a maturity date in January 2013.

In July 2012, we sold $350,000 of unsecured senior notes.  The notes require interest at a fixed rate of 5.625% per annum and are due in 2042.  Net proceeds from this sale of the notes, after underwriting discounts, fees and other expenses were approximately $338,566.  Interest on the notes is payable quarterly in arrears.  We used a part of the net proceeds of this offering to repay borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility and we used the remaining net proceeds from this offering to prepay a part of our Federal National Mortgage Association, or FNMA, secured term loan and for general business purposes, which included funding a part of our recent acquisitions of properties discussed in Note 3 above.

 

In August 2012, we prepaid approximately $199,197 of the outstanding principal balance of our FNMA secured term loan that had an interest rate of 6.4% at August 31, 2012 and a maturity date in September 2019, using, among other funds, net proceeds from our July 2012 debt offering.  As a result of this prepayment, 11 of the 28 properties securing this loan were released from the related mortgage.  Also, as a result of this prepayment, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $6,349 consisting of a debt prepayment premium, legal fees and the write off of unamortized deferred financing fees.

 

We have a $750,000 unsecured revolving credit facility that is available for acquisitions, working capital and general business purposes.  Our revolving credit facility has a maturity date in June 2015 and, subject to meeting certain conditions and our payment of a fee, we may extend the maturity date for one year to June 2016.  In addition, our revolving credit facility includes a feature under which maximum borrowings may be increased to up to $1,500,000 in certain circumstances.  Borrowings under our revolving credit facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a spread of 160 basis points.  We also pay a facility fee of 35 basis points per annum on the maximum amount of borrowings available under our revolving credit facility.  Both the interest rate spread and the facility fee are subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings.  The weighted average annual interest rate for borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 1.8% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively.  As of September 30, 2012, we had $55,000 outstanding and $695,000 available under our revolving credit facility.

 

Note 7.  Shareholders’ Equity

 

On February 9, 2012, we paid a $0.38 per share, or $61,806, distribution to our common shareholders with respect to our operating results for the quarter ended December 31, 2011.  On May 9, 2012, we paid a $0.38 per share, or $61,813, distribution to our common shareholders with respect to our operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2012.  On August 24, 2012, we paid a $0.38 per share, or $67,061, distribution to our common shareholders with respect to our operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2012.  On October 9, 2012, we declared a quarterly distribution of $0.39 per share, or $68,856, to our common shareholders of record on October 22, 2012, with respect to our operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2012; we expect to pay this distribution on or about November 20, 2012.

 

On February 10, 2011, we paid a $0.37 per share, or $52,486, distribution to our common shareholders with respect to our operating results for the quarter ended December 31, 2010.  On May 12, 2011, we paid a $0.37 per share, or $52,490, distribution to our common shareholders with respect to our operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2011.  On August 11, 2011, we paid a $0.37 per share, or $56,748, distribution to our common shareholders with respect to our operating results for the quarter ended June 30, 2011.  On November 11, 2011, we paid a $0.38 per share, or $61,805, distribution to our common shareholders with respect to our operating results for the quarter ended September 30, 2011.

Under the terms of our business management agreement with Reit Management & Research LLC, or RMR, on March 29, 2012, we issued 20,462 common shares in payment of an incentive fee of approximately $453 for services rendered to us by RMR during 2011.

 

On May 17, 2012, we granted 2,000 common shares of beneficial interest, par value $.01 per share, valued at $20.48 per share, the closing price of our common shares on the New York Stock Exchange, or the NYSE, on that day, to each of our five Trustees.

 

In July 2012, we issued 13,800,000 common shares in a public offering, raising net proceeds of approximately $287,052.  We used the net proceeds of this offering to repay borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility.

 

On September 14, 2012, pursuant to our 2012 Equity Compensation Plan, we granted an aggregate of 78,492 common shares of beneficial interest, par value $.01 per share, valued at $22.62 per share, the closing price of our common shares on the NYSE on that day, to our officers and certain employees of our manager, RMR.

 

Note 8.  Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

(1)              Assets held for sale consist of one of our properties that we expect to sell that is reported at fair value.  We used offers to purchase the property made by third parties or comparable sales transactions (Level 2 inputs) to determine the fair value of this property.  We have previously recorded cumulative impairments of approximately $5,738 to this property in order to reduce its book value to fair value.

(2)              Long-lived assets held and used consist of one of our properties.  We used broker information and comparable sales transactions (Level 2 inputs) to determine the fair value of this property and recognized an impairment of assets charge of $3,071 during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 to reduce its carrying value to the amount stated.

(3)              Our investments in available for sale securities include our 250,000 common shares of CWH and 4,235,000 common shares of Five Star. The fair values of these shares are based on quoted prices at September 30, 2012 in active markets (Level 1 inputs).

(4)              We estimate the fair values of our unsecured senior notes using an average of the bid and ask price of our then outstanding four issuances of senior notes (Level 1 inputs) on or about September 30, 2012.  The fair

values of these senior note obligations exceed their book values of $1,091,732 by $82,590 because these notes were trading at a premium to their face amounts.

 

In addition to the assets and liabilities described in the above table, our additional financial instruments include rents receivable, cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, secured and unsecured debt and other liabilities. The fair values of these additional financial instruments approximate their carrying values at September 30, 2012 based upon their liquidity, short term maturity, variable rate pricing or our estimate of fair value using discounted cash flow analyses and prevailing interest rates.

 

Note 9.  Segment Reporting

 

We have three operating segments, of which two are reportable operating segments.  The two reportable operating segments are: (i) short term and long term residential care communities that offer dining for residents and (ii) properties where medical related activities occur but where residential overnight stays and dining services are not provided, or MOBs.  Properties in the short term and long term residential care communities segment include leased and managed independent living communities, assisted living communities, skilled nursing facilities and rehabilitation hospitals.  We earn rental income revenues from the tenants that lease and operate our leased communities and we earn fees and services revenues from the residents of our Managed Communities.  Five Star began managing our Managed Communities for our account in June 2011.  Properties in the MOB segment include those leased to medical providers, medical related businesses, clinics and biotech laboratory tenants.  We earn rental income revenues from tenants of our MOBs.  The “All Other Operations” category in the following table includes amounts related to corporate business activities and the operating results of certain properties that offer fitness, wellness and spa services to members.

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data or as otherwise stated)

 

to us: (1) a business management agreement which relates to business generally and (2) a property management agreement which relates to the property level operations of our MOBs.  Under our business management agreement with RMR, we acknowledge that RMR also provides management services to other companies, which include Five Star and CWH.  One of our Managing Trustees, Mr. Barry Portnoy, is Chairman, majority owner and an employee of RMR.  Our other Managing Trustee, Mr. Adam Portnoy, is the son of Mr. Barry Portnoy, and an owner, President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of RMR.  Each of our executive officers is also an officer of RMR, and our President and Chief Operating Officer, Mr. David Hegarty, is a director of RMR.  Certain of Five Star’s executive officers and CWH’s executive officers are officers of RMR.  Our Independent Trustees also serve as independent directors or independent trustees of other public companies to which RMR provides management services.  Mr. Barry Portnoy serves as a managing director or managing trustee of those companies and Mr. Adam Portnoy serves as a managing trustee of a majority of those companies.

 

Pursuant to our business management agreement with RMR, we incurred expenses of $6,745 and $4,865 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $19,472 and $15,241 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  These amounts are included in general and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.  In March 2012, we issued 20,462 common shares to RMR in satisfaction of the incentive fee RMR earned for services provided to us during 2011, in accordance with the terms of the business management agreement.  In connection with our property management agreement with RMR, we incurred property management and construction supervision fees of $1,557 and $1,111 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $4,328 and $3,193 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  These amounts are included in property operating expenses or have been capitalized, as appropriate, in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

Five Star is our former 100% owned subsidiary.  In 2001, we distributed substantially all of Five Star’s then outstanding shares of common stock to our shareholders.  We are Five Star’s largest stockholder and, as of the date of this report, we owned  4,235,000 shares of common stock of Five Star, or approximately 8.8% of Five Star’s outstanding shares of common stock.  Five Star is our largest tenant and manages several senior living communities for us.  As of September 30, 2012, we leased 188 senior living communities and two rehabilitation hospitals to Five Star and Five Star managed 30 senior living communities for our account.  One of our Managing Trustees, Mr. Barry Portnoy, is also a managing director of Five Star.  RMR provides management services to both us and Five Star.

 

Under Five Star’s leases with us, Five Star pays us rent consisting of minimum annual rent amounts plus percentage rent based on increases in gross revenues at certain properties.  Five Star’s total minimum annual rent payable to us as of September 30, 2012 was $196,704, excluding percentage rent.  We recognized total rental income from Five Star of $49,148 and $48,392 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $146,901 and $141,875 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.  As of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, our rents receivable from Five Star were $17,620 and $17,313, respectively, and are included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, pursuant to the terms of our leases with Five Star, we purchased $18,249 of improvements made to properties leased to Five Star, and, as a result, the annual rent payable to us by Five Star increased by approximately $1,472.

 

Five Star began managing communities for our account in June 2011 in connection with our acquisition of certain senior living communities at that time.  We have since acquired additional communities that are

being managed by Five Star.  Five Star manages our managed communities pursuant to long term management agreements on substantially consistent terms.  In connection with these management agreements, we and Five Star have entered into three pooling agreements: two pooling agreements which pool our management agreements for communities that include assisted living units, or the AL Pooling Agreements, and a third pooling agreement, which pools our management agreements for communities consisting only of independent living units, or the IL Pooling Agreement.  We entered into the initial AL Pooling Agreement in May 2011 and the second AL Pooling Agreement in October 2012.  In connection with entering into the second AL Pooling Agreement, we and Five Star amended and restated the initial AL Pooling Agreement so that it includes only the management agreements for 20 of the communities that include assisted living units that we and Five Star agreed would be managed by Five Star for our account.  The second AL Pooling Agreement includes the management agreements for the remaining communities that include assisted living units that Five Star currently manages for our account (other than with respect to the senior living community in New York described below).  We entered into the IL Pooling Agreement in August 2012 and that agreement currently includes management agreements for two communities consisting only of independent living units.  Each of the AL Pooling Agreements and the IL Pooling Agreement aggregates the determination of fees and expenses of the various communities that are subject to each such pooling agreement, including determinations of our return of our invested capital and Five Star’s incentive fees.  We incurred management fees of $1,284 and $3,431 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, and $326 and $351 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, respectively, with respect to the communities Five Star manages for our account.  These amounts are included in property operating expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.  We expect that we may enter into additional management arrangements with Five Star for senior living communities that we may acquire in the future on terms similar to those management arrangements we currently have with Five Star, including, as further disclosed in Note 3—Real Estate Properties and below, with respect to two of the communities we currently lease to Sunrise.

 

In February 2012, we acquired a senior living community in Alabama with 92 living units for approximately $11,300, excluding closing costs, and in May 2012, we acquired a senior living community with 59 living units in South Carolina for approximately $8,059, excluding closing costs.  We are leasing those communities to our TRSs and they are being managed by Five Star pursuant to long term management agreements, on terms substantially consistent with the terms of our other management agreements with Five Star for communities that include assisted living units.  The management agreements for these communities are included in the second AL Pooling Agreement.

 

In May 2012, we and Five Star entered into the Operations Transfer Agreement with Sunrise.  Pursuant to the Operations Transfer Agreement, we and Sunrise agreed to accelerate the December 31, 2013 termination date of 10 of our then 14 leases with Sunrise, which 10 leases relate to the 10 Communities.  The Operations Transfer Agreement also contemplates that we will lease the 10 Communities to our TRS and Five Star will operate the 10 Communities as a manager for our account, pursuant to long term management agreements.  The Operations Transfer Agreement provides that these transactions will occur when we and Five Star have obtained regulatory approvals to operate the affected 10 Communities.  As of the date of this report, we and Sunrise have terminated the leases for eight of the 10 Communities pursuant to the Operations Transfer Agreement, we leased those eight communities to our TRS and we have entered into long term management agreements with Five Star for each of the eight communities, on terms substantially consistent with the terms of our other management agreements with Five Star for communities that include assisted living units.  These management agreements for these eight communities are included in the second AL Pooling Agreement. We currently expect that, following the termination of the leases for the remaining two of the 10 Communities, we will lease these

communities to our TRS, that we will enter into long term management agreements with Five Star, on terms substantially consistent with the terms of our other management agreements with Five Star for communities that include assisted living units, for Five Star to manage those communities on our behalf and that those communities will also be added to our second AL Pooling Agreement.

 

In July 2012, we acquired a senior living community in South Carolina with 232 living units for approximately $37,273, excluding closing costs, and entered into a long term management agreement with Five Star to manage this community for our account on terms substantially consistent with the terms of our other management agreements with Five Star for communities that include assisted living units and this management agreement is included in our second AL Pooling Agreement.

 

In August 2012, we acquired a senior living community in Missouri with 87 living units for approximately $11,280, excluding closing costs, and entered into a long term management agreement with Five Star to manage this community for our account on terms substantially consistent with the terms of our other management agreement with Five Star for a community consisting only of independent living units.  In connection with this acquisition, we entered into the IL Pooling Agreement with Five Star and this management agreement was added to the IL Pooling Agreement.

 

Also in August 2012, we acquired a senior living community in New York with 310 living units, for approximately $99,000, excluding closing costs.  In connection with our acquisition of this community, we entered into a long term management agreement with Five Star to manage the portion of this community consisting of living units not subject to the requirements of New York healthcare licensing laws for our account on terms substantially consistent with the terms of our other management agreements with Five Star for communities that include assisted living units, except the management fee we pay is equal to 5% of the gross revenues realized at that portion of the community, instead of 3% of gross revenues as is typically provided under our management agreements with Five Star, and there is no incentive fee payable by us under this management agreement.  In order to accommodate certain requirements of New York healthcare licensing laws, our TRS subleased the portion of this community that is subject to such requirements to an entity, D&R Yonkers LLC, which is owned by our President and Chief Operating Officer and our Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer.  In August 2012, D&R Yonkers LLC entered into a long term management agreement with Five Star to manage this community for its account.  Under the sublease agreement, D&R Yonkers LLC is obligated to pay rent only from available revenues generated by the subleased community.  Our TRS is obligated to advance any rent shortfalls to D&R Yonkers LLC, and D&R Yonkers LLC is obligated to repay our TRS those amounts our TRS advanced only from available revenues generated by the subleased community.  Further, we have entered into an indemnification agreement with the owners of D&R Yonkers LLC, pursuant to which we have agreed to indemnify them for costs, losses and expenses they may sustain by reason of being a member, director or officer of D&R Yonkers LLC or in connection with any costs losses or expenses under our TRS’s sublease with D&R Yonkers LLC or the management agreement between D&R Yonkers LLC and Five Star.

 

As discussed above in Note 5—Loan Receivable, in May 2011, we and Five Star entered into the Bridge Loan, under which we lent to Five Star $80,000 to fund a portion of Five Star’s purchase of six senior living communities.  In April 2012, Five Star repaid in full the $38,000 principal amount then outstanding under the Bridge Loan, resulting in the termination of the Bridge Loan.  We recognized interest income from the Bridge Loan of $0 and $314 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively, and we recognized interest income of $187 and $245 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011.

As discussed above in Note 6—Indebtedness, i n August 2012, we prepaid approximately $199,197 of the outstanding principal balance of our FNMA secured term loan. As a result of this prepayment, 11 of the 28 properties securing that debt were released from the mortgage and, in connection with this release, we entered into amendments to the related master credit agreement and our leases with Five Star so that these 11 properties were removed from the lease that exists to accommodate this FNMA debt and added to our other leases with Five Star.

 

CWH was formerly our parent.  We were spun off to CWH’s shareholders in 1999.  As of the date of this report, we owned 250,000 common shares of CWH.  One of our Managing Trustees, Mr. Barry Portnoy, is a managing trustee of CWH.  Our other Managing Trustee, Mr. Adam Portnoy, is a managing trustee and the President of CWH.  In addition, one of our Independent Trustees, Mr. Frederick Zeytoonjian, is also an independent trustee of CWH.  RMR provides management services to both us and CWH.

 

As previously reported, CWH previously granted us a right of first refusal to purchase certain of CWH’s properties if CWH sought to sell them.  Between November 2010 and January 2011, we purchased 27 properties (approximately 2,803,000 square feet of rental space), which were majority leased as MOBs from CWH for total sale prices of $470,000, excluding closing costs.  In September 2011, we acquired from CWH 13 additional properties (approximately 1,310,000 square feet), which were located in eight states and majority leased as MOBs for total sale prices of $167,000, excluding closing costs.  Certain of the properties included in these purchases were subject to the right of first refusal granted to us by CWH referred to above.  In connection with our September 2011 purchase of 13 properties from CWH, we and CWH terminated our existing right of first refusal, as we have purchased substantially all of the properties that were subject to that right of first refusal.

 

We, RMR, Five Star, CWH and four other companies to which RMR provides management services each currently own 12.5% of Affiliates Insurance Company, or AIC, an Indiana insurance company.  All of our Trustees, all of the trustees and directors of the other publicly held AIC shareholders and nearly all of the directors of RMR currently serve on the board of directors of AIC.  RMR provides management and administrative services to AIC pursuant to a management and administrative services agreement with AIC.  Although we own less than 20% of AIC, we use the equity method to account for this investment because we believe that we have significant influence over AIC because all of our Trustees are also directors of AIC.  Our investment in AIC had a carrying value of $5,558 and $5,291 as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively.  We recognized income of $115 and $28 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $236 and $111 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, related to this investment.  We and the other shareholders of AIC have purchased property insurance providing $500,000 of coverage pursuant to an insurance program arranged by AIC and with respect to which AIC is a reinsurer of certain coverage amounts.  This program was modified and extended in June 2012 for a one year term and we paid a premium, including taxes and fees, of $4,438 in connection with that renewal, which amount may be adjusted from time to time as we acquire or dispose of properties that are included in this program.  We are also currently investigating the possibilities to expand our insurance relationships with AIC to include other types of insurance.  We may invest additional amounts in AIC in the future if the expansion of this insurance business requires additional capital, but we are not obligated to do so.  By participating in this insurance business with RMR and the other companies to which RMR provides management services, we expect that we may benefit financially by possibly reducing our insurance expenses or by realizing our pro-rata share of any profits of this insurance business.

Note 12.  Income Taxes

 

We have elected to be taxed as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and as such, are generally not subject to federal and most state income taxation on our operating income provided we distribute our taxable income to our shareholders and meet certain organization and operating requirements. We do, however, lease certain managed senior living communities to our wholly owned TRSs that, unlike most of our subsidiaries, file a separate consolidated corporate income tax return and are subject to federal and state income taxes.  Our consolidated income tax provision includes the income tax provision related to the operations of our TRSs and certain state income taxes we incur despite our REIT status.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recognized current income tax expense of $43 and $290, respectively.  During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recognized current income tax expense of $207 and $365, respectively.

Table of Contents

 


(1)

Amounts are before depreciation, but after impairment write downs, if any.

(2)

Represents investment carrying value divided by the number of living units, beds or leased square feet at September 30, 2012.

(3)

Net operating income, or NOI, is defined and calculated by reportable segment and reconciled to net income below in this Item 2.

(4)

Senior living properties are categorized by the type of living units or beds which constitute a majority of the living units or beds at the property.

(5)

In August 2012, we realigned our leases with Five Star as a result of our prepayment of approximately $199,197 of the outstanding principal balance of our FNMA secured term loan and the release of 11 of the 28 properties securing this loan from the related mortgage.  The data presented above reflects this realignment.

(6)

Marriott International, Inc. guarantees the lessee’s obligations under these leases.  In December 2011, Sunrise extended the leases to December 31, 2018 for these senior living communities.  Rent coverage and occupancy includes data for the four senior living communities whose leases were extended to December 31, 2018.

(7)

These 37 senior living communities, including 27 communities that we acquired since June 2011 and the 10 Communities leased to Sunrise, of which three were transferred to our TRS in September 2012, are leased to our TRSs and managed by Five Star for our account.  In May 2012, we entered an agreement with Sunrise for early terminations of leases for 10 Communities that were leased to Sunrise through December 31, 2013; in September 2012, the leases for three senior living communities were terminated and, in October 2012, the leases for five additional of these senior living communities were terminated, and the operations of these eight senior living communities were transferred to our TRS and Five Star management.  We currently expect the termination of the leases for, and the transition of the operations of, the remaining two of these senior living communities to occur before December 31, 2012.  Number of Properties and Number of Units / Beds or Square Feet above are presented as if all of these 10 lease terminations occurred during the reporting period.

(8)

Operating data for TRS managed properties are presented for the 12 month period ended or, if shorter, from the date of acquisitions through September 30, 2012 and operating data for multi-tenant MOBs are presented as of September 30, 2012 and 2011; operating data for other properties and tenants are presented based upon the operating results provided by our tenants for the 12 months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, or the most recent prior period for which tenant operating results are available to us.  Rent coverage is calculated as operating cash flow from our tenants’ operations of our properties, before subordinated charges, divided by minimum rents payable to us.  We have not independently verified our tenants’ operating data.  The table excludes data for periods prior to our ownership of some of these properties.

(9)

Our MOB leases include both triple-net leases where, in addition to paying fixed rents, the tenants assume the obligation to operate and maintain the properties at their expense, and some net and modified gross leases where we are responsible to operate and maintain the properties and we charge tenants for some or all of the property operating costs.  A small percentage of our MOB leases are so-called “full-service” leases where we receive fixed rent from our tenants and no reimbursement for our property operating costs.

Average remaining lease term for all properties (weighted by annualized rental income):  9.0 years

 


(1)

Annualized rental income is rents pursuant to existing leases as of September 30, 2012, including estimated percentage rents, straight line rent adjustments, estimated recurring expense reimbursements for certain net and modified gross leases and excluding lease value amortization at certain of our MOBs and wellness centers.

(2)

Excludes rent received from our TRSs.  If the NOI from our TRSs (three months ended September 30, 2012, annualized) were included in the foregoing table, the percent of total annualized rental income expiring would be: 2012 – 1.0%; 2013 – 3.7%; 2014 – 4.5%; 2015 – 4.4%, 2016 – 3.6%; 2017 – 13.0%; 2018 – 5.6%; 2019 – 5.6%; 2020 – 2.0%; and thereafter – 56.6%.

Excludes 6,439 living units leased to our TRSs, which for these purposes, includes 2,472 living units from the 10 Communities leased to Sunrise and that we and Sunrise agreed to terminate the leases for.  The leases for three of those communities had been terminated as of September 30, 2012.  If the number of living units included in our TRS leases were included in the foregoing table, the percent of total living units / beds expiring would be: 2012, 2013, 2014 – 0.0%; 2015 – 1.4%; 2016 – 0.0%; 2017 – 13.5%; 2018 – 5.2%; 2019 – 0.6%; 2020 – 0.0%; and thereafter – 79.3%.

 

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, we entered into MOB lease renewals for 285,000 square feet and new leases for 32,000 square feet, at weighted average rental rates that were 2.8% above rents previously charged for the same space.  These leases have average net rent of $16.47 per square foot.  Average lease terms for leases entered into during the third quarter of 2012 were 4.2 years.  Commitments for tenant improvement, leasing commission costs and concessions for leases we entered into during the third quarter of 2012 totaled $1.4 million, or $4.54 per square foot on average (approximately $1.08 per square foot per year of the lease term).

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (dollars and square feet in thousands, unless otherwise noted)

 

We have three operating segments, of which two are reportable operating segments.  The two reportable operating segments are: (i) short term and long term residential care communities that offer dining for residents and (ii) MOBs.  Properties in the short term and long term residential care communities segment include leased and managed independent living communities, assisted living communities, skilled nursing facilities and rehabilitation hospitals.  We earn rental income revenues from the tenants that lease and operate our leased communities and we earn fees and services revenues from the residents of our Managed Communities.  Five Star began managing our Managed Communities for our account in June 2011.  Properties in the MOB segment include those leased to medical providers, medical related businesses, clinics and biotech laboratory tenants.  We earn rental income revenues from tenants of our MOBs.  The “All Other Operations” category in the following table includes amounts related to corporate business activities and the operating results of certain properties that offer fitness, wellness and spa services to members.

(1)       Includes data for our Managed Communities that were then being managed by Five Star at or during the periods presented.

 

Rental income.  Rental income increased because of rents from our acquisition of four communities during the third quarter of 2012 for approximately $36,500 which are leased by a private tenant, one community during the third quarter of 2011 for approximately $10,235 which is leased by Five Star and our purchase of approximately $36,200 of improvements made to our properties which are leased by Five Star since July 1, 2011.  Rental income includes non-cash straight line rent adjustments totaling approximately $1,168 and $499 for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and percentage rent as a result of the September 2012 lease terminations of three senior living communities formerly leased to Sunrise of approximately $350.  Rental income increased year over year on a comparable property basis primarily as a result of the improvement purchases from Five Star at certain of the 228 communities we have owned continuously since July 1, 2011.

 

Residents fees and services.  Residents fees and services are the revenues earned at our 27 Managed Communities that we acquired for approximately $723,327 since June 2011 and the revenues earned at the three senior living communities that were formerly leased to Sunrise and transferred to our TRS in September 2012.  Residents fees and services increased year over year on a comparable property basis because of increases in occupancy and average daily rates charged to residents on the 10 communities we have owned continuously since July 1, 2011.  We recognize these revenues as services are provided.

Property operating expenses.   Property operating expenses include expenses incurred at our 27 Managed Communities, which are leased to our TRSs and which we acquired since June 2011, and expenses incurred at the three senior living communities that were formerly leased to Sunrise and transferred to our TRS in September 2012.  The beginning of our Managed Communities operations in June 2011 is the primary cause for the increase in property operating expenses year over year for the period.  Property operating expenses consist of management fees, real estate taxes, utility expense, salaries and benefits of property level personnel, repairs and maintenance expense, cleaning expense and other direct costs of operating properties.

 

Net operating income.   NOI increased because of the changes in rental income, residents fees and services and property operating expenses described above.  The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our short and long term residential care communities segment is shown in the table above.  Our definition of NOI and our consolidated reconciliation of NOI to net income are included below in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

 

Depreciation expense.   Depreciation expense increased as a result of our acquisition of 22 communities since July 1, 2011 and our purchase of improvements made to our properties which are leased by Five Star since July 1, 2011.

 

Impairment of assets.   During the three months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded an impairment of assets charge of $1,028 related to one property to reduce the carrying value of this property to its estimated sale price less costs to sell.

 

Interest expense.   Interest expense for our short and long term residential care communities arises from mortgage debt secured by certain of these properties.  The increase in interest expense is the result of the assumption of $155,968 of mortgage debt in connection with certain of our 2011 acquisitions occurring in the third and fourth quarter of that year, and the assumption of $48,691 of mortgage debt in connection with certain of our 2012 acquisitions occurring in the second and third quarter, partially offset by the repayment of one mortgage loan in February 2012 that had a principal balance of approximately $12,400 and an interest rate of 6.03%, the repayment of 17 mortgage loans in the second quarter of 2012 that had a total principal balance of $33,381 and a weighted average interest rate of 6.89%, the prepayment of $199,197 of our FNMA secured term loan in August 2012 that had an interest rate of 6.4%, as well as the regularly scheduled amortization of our mortgage debt.

 

Loss on lease terminations.   Loss on lease terminations is a result of our May 2012 agreement with Sunrise for early terminations of leases for 10 Communities; in September 2012, the leases for three senior living communities were terminated and in October 2012, the leases for five additional senior living communities were terminated, resulting in a loss on lease terminations of approximately $104.

Rental income.  Rental income increased because of rents from 24 MOBs we acquired for approximately $366,070 since July 1, 2011, partially offset by the sale of one MOB for approximately $1,100 in July 2012.  Rental income includes non-cash straight line rent adjustments totaling $2,653 and $1,788 and amortization of approximately $(970) and $148 of acquired real estate leases and obligations for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Property operating expenses.   Property operating expenses consist of property management fees, real estate taxes, utility expense, salaries and benefit costs of property level personnel, repairs and maintenance expense, cleaning expense and other direct costs of operating properties.  Property operating expenses increased because of our MOB acquisitions since July 1, 2011, partially offset by the sale of one MOB in July 2012.

Net operating income.   NOI increased because of the changes in rental income and property operating expenses described above.  The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our MOB segment is shown in the table above.  Our definition of NOI and our consolidated reconciliation of NOI to net income are included below in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

 

Depreciation expense.   Depreciation expense increased because of our MOB acquisitions since July 1, 2011, partially offset by the sale of one MOB in July 2012.

 

Interest expense.   Interest expense for our MOBs arises from mortgage debt secured by certain of these properties.  The change in interest expense is the result of our assumption of $13,300 of mortgage debt in connection with our acquisition of two MOBs in July and November 2011 and our assumption of $63,462 of mortgage debt in connection with our acquisition of two MOBs in June and September 2012, partially offset by the repayment of one mortgage loan in April 2012 that had a principal balance of approximately $2,330 and an interest rate of 6.73% and the regularly scheduled amortization of our mortgage debt.

 

Loss on sale of properties.   Loss on sale of properties is a result of the sale of one MOB in July 2012.

Rental income.  Rental income decreased as a result of a reduction in same store occupancy from 96.7% at September 30, 2011 to 93.1% at September 30, 2012, mainly caused by one MOB that became vacant in February 2012.  Rental income includes non-cash straight line rent adjustments totaling $1,785 and $1,782 and amortization of approximately $(79) and $150 of acquired real estate leases and obligations for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Property operating expenses.   Property operating expenses consist of property management fees, real estate taxes, utility expense, salaries and benefit costs of property level personnel, repairs and maintenance expense, cleaning expense and other direct costs of operating properties.  Property operating expenses decreased principally because of a decrease in utility expenses, partially offset by higher real estate taxes.

 

Net operating income.   NOI decreased because of the changes in rental income and property operating expenses described above.  The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our MOB segment for comparable properties is

shown in the table above.  Our definition of NOI and our consolidated reconciliation of NOI to net income are included below in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

 

Depreciation expense.   Depreciation expense decreased primarily because of a reduction in amortization of above and below market lease adjustments that we amortize over the respective lease terms, partially offset by an increase in the amortization of leasing costs.

 

Interest expense.   Interest expense for our MOBs arises from mortgage debt secured by certain of these properties.  The change in interest expense is the result of the repayment of one mortgage loan in April 2012 that had a principal balance of approximately $2,330 and an interest rate of 6.73% and the regularly scheduled amortization of our mortgage debt.

(1)       All other operations includes our wellness center operations that we do not consider a significant, separately reportable segment of our business and corporate business activities, and our operating expenses that are not attributable to a specific reportable segment.

 

Rental income.  Rental income includes non-cash straight line rent adjustments totaling approximately $365 and amortization of approximately $55 of acquired real estate leases and obligations in both the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

33



Table of Contents

 

Depreciation expense.   Depreciation expense remained consistent as there were no wellness center acquisitions nor capital improvement funding for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 and we generally depreciate our long lived wellness center assets on a straight line basis.

 

General and administrative expense.   General and administrative expenses consist of fees pursuant to our business management agreement with RMR, equity compensation expense, legal and accounting fees and other costs relating to our status as a publicly traded company.  General and administrative expenses increased principally as a result of acquisitions of senior living communities and MOBs for approximately $1,021,611 since July 1, 2011, partially offset by the sale of one MOB in July 2012 for approximately $1,100.

 

Acquisition related costs.   Acquisition related costs represent legal and due diligence costs incurred in connection with our acquisition activity during the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.  Acquisition related costs increased as a result of licensing and other regulatory costs related to the senior living communities leased to Sunrise that have been and are being transferred to our TRS, offset by lower senior living and MOB acquisition activity during the three months ended September 30, 2012 than the prior year period.

 

Interest and other income.   The decrease in interest and other income is primarily due to the elimination of interest received from our Bridge Loan with Five Star that was repaid in April 2012.  Interest and other income also includes interest on our investable cash and dividend income related to the 250,000 common shares of CWH that we own.

 

Interest expense.   Interest expense increased because of our issuance of $300,000 of unsecured senior notes with an interest rate of 6.75% in December 2011, our issuance of $350,000 of unsecured senior notes with an interest rate of 5.625% in July 2012 and greater amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facility, partially offset by reduced interest expense because of the redemption in January 2012 of all $225,000 of our 8.625% unsecured senior notes.  Our weighted average balance outstanding and interest rate under our revolving credit facility was $74,293 and 1.8%, and $17,272 and 1.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Loss on early extinguishment of debt.   In August 2012, we prepaid approximately $199,197 of the outstanding principal balance of our FNMA secured term loan.  As a result of this prepayment, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $6,349 consisting of a debt prepayment premium, legal fees and the write off of unamortized deferred financing fees.

 

Equity in earnings of an investee.   Equity in earnings of an investee represents our proportionate share of earnings from AIC.

(1)       Includes data for our Managed Communities that were then being managed by Five Star at or during the periods presented.

 

Rental income.  Rental income increased because of rents from our acquisition of four communities during the third quarter of 2012 for approximately $36,500 which are leased by a privately owned tenant, five communities during the second quarter of 2011 for approximately $89,600 which are leased by Five Star and one community during the third quarter of 2011 for approximately $10,235 which is leased by Five Star and our purchase of approximately $51,520 of improvements made to our properties which are leased by Five Star since January 1, 2011, partially offset by a reduction in rental income resulting from the sale of five properties during the second quarter of 2011 for approximately $38,625.  Rental income includes non-cash straight line rent adjustments totaling approximately $2,849 and $1,515 for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and percentage rent as a result of the September 2012 lease terminations of three senior living communities formerly leased to Sunrise of approximately $350.  Rental income increased year over year on a comparable property basis primarily as a result of the improvement purchases from Five Star at certain of the 223 communities we have owned continuously since January 1, 2011.

 

Residents fees and services.  Residents fees and services are the revenues earned at our 27 Managed Communities that we acquired for approximately $723,327 since June 2011 and the revenues earned at the three senior living communities that were formerly leased to Sunrise and transferred to our TRS in September 2012.  We recognize these revenues as services are provided.

 

Property operating expenses.   Property operating expenses include expenses incurred at our 27 Managed Communities, which are leased to our TRSs and which we acquired since June 2011, and expenses incurred at the three senior living communities that were formerly leased to Sunrise and transferred to our TRS in September 2012.  The beginning of our Managed Communities operations in June 2011 is the primary cause for the increase in property operating expenses year over year for the period.  Property operating expenses consist of

Table of Contents

 

management fees, real estate taxes, utility expense, salaries and benefits of property level personnel, repairs and maintenance expense, cleaning expense and other direct costs of operating properties.

 

Net operating income.   NOI increased because of the changes in rental income, residents fees and services and property operating expenses described above.  The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our short and long term residential care communities segment is shown in the table above.  Our definition of NOI and our consolidated reconciliation of NOI to net income are included below in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

 

Depreciation expense.   Depreciation expense increased as a result of our acquisition of 37 communities since January 1, 2011 and our purchase of improvements made to our properties which are leased by Five Star since January 1, 2011, partially offset by the sale of five properties during the second quarter of 2011.

 

Interest expense.   Interest expense for our short and long term residential care communities arises from mortgage debt secured by certain of these properties.  The increase in interest expense is the result of the assumption of $204,030 of mortgage debt in connection with certain of our 2011 acquisitions occurring in the second, third and fourth quarter of that year, and the assumption of $48,961 of mortgage debt in connection with certain of our 2012 acquisitions occurring in the second and third quarter, partially offset by the repayment of one mortgage loan in February 2012 that had a principal balance of approximately $12,400 and an interest rate of 6.03%, the repayment of 17 mortgage loans in the second quarter of 2012 that had a total principal balance of approximately $33,381 and a weighted average interest rate of 6.89%, the prepayment of $199,197 of our FNMA secured term loan in August 2012 that had an interest rate of 6.4%, as well as the regularly scheduled amortization of our mortgage debt.

 

Loss on lease terminations.   Loss on lease terminations is a result of our May 2012 agreement with Sunrise for early terminations of leases for 10 Communities; in September 2012, the leases for three senior living communities were terminated and in October 2012, the leases for five additional senior living communities were terminated resulting in a loss on lease terminations of approximately $104.

 

Gain on sale of properties.   Gain on sale of properties is a result of the sale of five senior living communities during the second quarter of 2011.

Rental income.  Rental income increased because of rents from 35 MOBs we acquired for approximately $497,840 since January 1, 2011, partially offset by the sale of two MOBs for approximately $835 during the second quarter of 2011 and the sale of one MOB for approximately $1,100 in July 2012.  Rental income includes non-cash straight line rent adjustments totaling $6,305 and $5,767 and amortization of approximately $(911) and $408 of acquired real estate leases and obligations for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Property operating expenses.   Property operating expenses consist of property management fees, real estate taxes, utility expense, salaries and benefit costs of property level personnel, repairs and maintenance expense, cleaning expense and other direct costs of operating properties.  Property operating expenses increased because of our MOB acquisitions since January 1, 2011, partially offset by the sale of two MOBs during the second quarter of 2011 and the sale of one MOB in July 2012.

 

Net operating income.   NOI increased because of the changes in rental income and property operating expenses described above.  The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our MOB segment is shown in the table above.  Our definition of NOI and our consolidated reconciliation of NOI to net income are included below in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

 

Depreciation expense.   Depreciation expense increased because of our MOB acquisitions since January 1, 2011, partially offset by the sale of two MOBs during the second quarter of 2011 and the sale of one MOB in July 2012.

 

Impairment of assets.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we recorded an impairment of assets charge of $3,071 related to one property to reduce the carrying value of this property to its estimated fair value.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2011, we recorded an impairment of assets charge of $166 related to two properties to reduce the carrying value of these properties to their estimated sales prices less costs to sell.

 

Interest expense.   Interest expense for our MOBs arises from mortgage debt secured by certain of these properties.  The change in interest expense is the result of our assumption of $13,300 of mortgage debt in connection with our acquisition of two MOBs in July and November 2011 and our assumption of $63,462 of

mortgage debt in connection with our acquisition of two MOBs in June and September 2012, partially offset by the repayment of one mortgage loan in April 2012 that had a principal balance of approximately $2,330 and an interest rate of 6.73% and the regularly scheduled amortization of our mortgage debt.

 

(Loss) gain on sale of properties.   In July 2012, we sold one MOB and recorded a loss on sale of properties of approximately $101.  During the second quarter of 2011, we sold two MOBs and recognized a gain on sale of properties of approximately $79.

Rental income.  Rental income decreased as a result of a reduction in same store occupancy from 97.1% at September 30, 2011 to 92.6% at September 30, 2012, mainly caused by one MOB that became vacant in February 2012.  Rental income includes non-cash straight line rent adjustments totaling $3,940 and $5,132 and amortization of approximately $1,636 and $692 of acquired real estate leases and obligations for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Property operating expenses.   Property operating expenses consist of property management fees, real estate taxes, utility expense, salaries and benefit costs of property level personnel, repairs and maintenance expense, cleaning expense and other direct costs of operating properties.  Property operating expenses decreased mainly because of decreases in utility expenses during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.

 

Net operating income.   NOI decreased because of the changes in rental income and property operating expenses described above.  The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our MOB segment for comparable properties is shown in the table above.  Our definition of NOI and our consolidated reconciliation of NOI to net income are included below in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

 

Depreciation expense.   Depreciation expense increased primarily because of improvements we made on certain of these properties since January 1, 2011, the amortization of leasing costs and an increase in amortization of above and below market lease adjustments that we amortize over the respective lease terms.

 

Interest expense.   Interest expense for our MOBs arises from mortgage debt secured by certain of these properties.  The change in interest expense is the result of the repayment of one mortgage loan in April 2012 that had a principal balance of approximately $2,330 and an interest rate of 6.73% and the regularly scheduled amortization of our mortgage debt.

(1)       All other operations includes our wellness center operations that we do not consider a significant, separately reportable segment of our business and corporate business activities, and our operating expenses that are not attributable to a specific reportable segment.

 

Rental income.  Rental income for our wellness centers increased because of scheduled consumer price index based rent increases since January 1, 2011 at certain of our wellness centers.  Rental income includes non-cash straight line rent adjustments totaling approximately $1,094 and amortization of approximately $165 of acquired real estate leases and obligations in both the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

Depreciation expense.   Depreciation expense remained consistent as there were no wellness center acquisitions nor capital improvement funding for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 and we generally depreciate our long lived wellness center assets on a straight line basis.

 

General and administrative expense.   General and administrative expenses consist of fees pursuant to our business management agreement with RMR, equity compensation expense, legal and accounting fees and other costs relating to our status as a publicly traded company.  General and administrative expenses increased principally as a result of acquisitions of senior living communities and MOBs for approximately $1,357,475 since January 1, 2011, partially offset by the sale of seven properties during the second quarter of 2011 for approximately $39,460 and the sale of one MOB in July 2012 for approximately $1,100.

 

Acquisition related costs.   Acquisition related costs represent legal and due diligence costs incurred in connection with our acquisition activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

40



Table of Contents

 

Acquisition related costs increased as a result of licensing and other regulatory costs related to the senior living communities leased to Sunrise that have been and are being transferred to our TRS, offset by lower senior living and MOB acquisition activity during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 than the prior year period.

 

Interest and other income.   The increase in interest and other income is primarily due to interest received from our Bridge Loan with Five Star during the nine months ended September 30, 2012.  Interest and other income also includes interest on our investable cash and dividend income related to the 250,000 common shares of CWH that we own.

 

Interest expense.   Interest expense increased because of our issuance of $250,000 of unsecured senior notes with an interest rate of 4.30% in January 2011, our issuance of $300,000 of unsecured senior notes with an interest rate of 6.75% in December 2011, our issuance of $350,000 of unsecured senior notes with an interest rate of 5.625% in July 2012 and greater amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facility at slightly higher weighted average interest rates, partially offset by reduced interest expense because of the redemption in January 2012 of all $225,000 of our 8.625% unsecured senior notes.  Our weighted average balance outstanding and interest rate under our revolving credit facility was $189,642 and 1.8%, and $35,339 and 1.3%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Loss on early extinguishment of debt.   In August 2012, we prepaid approximately $199,197 of the outstanding principal balance of our FNMA secured term loan.  As a result of this prepayment, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $6,349 consisting of a debt prepayment premium, legal fees and the write off of unamortized deferred financing fees.  In June 2011, we entered into a new $750,000 unsecured revolving credit facility that replaced our previous $550,000 unsecured revolving credit facility.  As a result of this refinancing, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $427 consisting of the write off of unamortized deferred financing fees.

 

Equity in earnings of an investee.   Equity in earnings of an investee represents our proportionate share of earnings from AIC.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

 

Set forth below are our calculations of our funds from operations, or FFO, Normalized FFO and NOI for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.  We believe that this data may facilitate an understanding of our historical operating results.  These measures should be considered in conjunction with net income, operating income and cash flow from operating activities as presented in our condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.  These measures do not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income or cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, or as indicators of our financial performance or liquidity, nor are these measures necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of our needs.  Other REITs and real estate companies may calculate FFO, Normalized FFO or NOI differently than us.

 

Funds From Operations and Normalized Funds From Operations

 

We calculate FFO and Normalized FFO as shown below.  FFO is calculated on the basis defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, which is net income, calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding any gain or loss on sale of properties and impairment of assets, plus real estate depreciation and amortization.  Our calculation of Normalized FFO differs from NAREIT’s definition of FFO because we include estimated percentage rent in the period to which it relates to rather than when it is recognized as income in accordance with GAAP and exclude acquisition related costs, loss on early extinguishment of debt and loss on lease terminations, if any. We consider FFO and Normalized FFO to be appropriate measures of performance for a REIT, along with net income, operating income and cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities.  We believe that FFO and Normalized FFO provide useful information to investors because by excluding the effects of certain historical amounts, such as depreciation expense, FFO and Normalized FFO can facilitate a comparison of our operating performance between periods.  FFO and Normalized FFO are among the factors considered by our Board of Trustees when determining the amount of distributions to shareholders.  Other factors include, but are not limited to, requirements to maintain our status as a REIT, limitations in our revolving credit facility and public debt covenants, the availability of equity and debt capital to us, our expectation of our future capital requirements and operating performance and our current and expected needs and availability of cash to pay our obligations.

 

Our calculations of FFO and Normalized FFO for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011 and reconciliations of FFO and Normalized FFO to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure under GAAP reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements, appear in the following table.

(1)       Net income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 includes $350 of percentage rent as a result of the September 2012 lease terminations of three senior living communities formerly leased to Sunrise.

 

(2)       In July 2012, we sold one MOB for approximately $1,100 and recognized a loss on sale of approximately $101.  During the second quarter of 2011, we sold seven properties for total sales prices of approximately $39,460 and recognized a gain on sale of approximately $21,315.

 

(3)       In August 2012, we prepaid approximately $199,197 of the outstanding principal balance of our FNMA secured term loan.  As a result of this prepayment, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $6,349 consisting of a debt prepayment premium, legal fees and the write off of unamortized deferred financing fees.

 

(4)       In May 2012, we entered an agreement with Sunrise for early terminations of leases for 10 Communities which were previously scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2013; in September 2012, the leases for three senior living communities were terminated and in October 2012, the leases for five additional senior living communities were terminated resulting in a loss on lease terminations of approximately $104.  We currently expect the termination of the leases for, and the transition of the operations of, the remaining two senior living communities to occur before December 31, 2012.

 

(5)       In calculating net income in accordance with GAAP, we recognize percentage rental income received for the first, second and third quarters in the fourth quarter, which is when all contingencies are met and the income is earned.  Although we defer recognition of this revenue until the fourth quarter for purposes of calculating net income, we include these estimated amounts in our calculation of Normalized FFO for each quarter of the year.  The fourth quarter Normalized FFO calculation excludes the amounts recognized during the first three quarters.

Property Net Operating Income (NOI)

 

We calculate NOI as shown below.  We define NOI as income from real estate less our property operating expenses.  We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it may help both investors and management to understand the operations of our properties.  We use NOI internally to evaluate individual and company wide property level performance and we believe NOI provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and may facilitate comparisons of our operating performance between periods.  The calculation of NOI excludes depreciation and amortization, acquisition related costs, and general and administrative expenses from the calculation of net income in order to provide results that are more closely related to our properties’ results of operations.

 

The calculation of NOI by reportable segment is included above in this Item 2.  The following table includes the reconciliation of NOI to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure under GAAP reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011.

Rental income revenues and residents fees and services revenues from our leased and managed properties and borrowings under our revolving credit facility are our principal sources of funds to pay operating expenses, debt service and distributions to shareholders.  We believe that our operating cash flow will be sufficient to meet our operating expenses and debt service and pay distributions on our shares for the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future thereafter.  Our future cash flows from operating activities will depend primarily upon our ability to:

 

·                   maintain or improve the occupancy of, and the current rental rates at, our properties;

 

·                   control operating cost increases at our properties; and

 

·                   purchase additional properties which produce cash flows in excess of our cost of acquisition capital and property operating expenses.

 

Our Operating Liquidity and Resources

 

We generally receive minimum rents monthly or quarterly from our tenants, we receive percentage rents from our residential community tenants monthly, quarterly or annually and we receive residents fees and services revenues, net of expenses, from our Managed Communities monthly.  During the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, we generated $239.0 million and $167.8 million, respectively, of cash from operations.  The increase in our cash from operations over the prior year primarily resulted from our property acquisitions, as further described below.

 

Our Investment and Financing Liquidity and Resources

 

At September 30, 2012, we had $21.0 million of cash and cash equivalents and $695.0 million available under our unsecured revolving credit facility.  We expect to use cash balances, borrowings under our revolving credit facility and net proceeds of offerings of equity or debt securities to fund future working capital requirements, property acquisitions and expenditures related to the repair, maintenance or renovation of our properties.

 

In order to fund acquisitions and to accommodate cash needs that may result from timing differences between our receipts of rents and our need or desire to pay operating expenses and distributions to our shareholders, we maintain a $750.0 million revolving credit facility with a group of institutional lenders.  The maturity date of this facility is June 24, 2015 and we have an option, subject to certain conditions and our payment of a fee, to extend the facility for one year.  This revolving credit facility also includes a feature under which maximum borrowings may be increased up to $1.5 billion in certain circumstances.  Borrowings under our revolving credit facility are unsecured.  We may borrow, repay and reborrow funds under the credit facility until maturity, and no principal repayment is due until maturity.  Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a spread that is subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings.  As of September 30, 2012, the interest rate payable on borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 1.79% and we had $55.0 million outstanding and $695.0 million available under our revolving credit facility.  There have been recent governmental inquiries regarding the setting of LIBOR, which may result in changes to that process that could have the general effect of increasing LIBOR.  Increases in LIBOR would increase the amount of interest we pay under our revolving credit facility.

 

When significant amounts are outstanding under our revolving credit facility or as the maturity dates of our revolving credit facility and term debts approach, we intend to explore alternatives for the repayment of

amounts due.  Such alternatives may include incurring additional debt and issuing new equity securities.  We currently have an effective shelf registration statement that allows us to issue public securities on an expedited basis, but it does not assure that there will be buyers for such securities.

 

In January 2012, we repaid all $225.0 million of our 8.625% unsecured senior notes at their maturity date.  We funded this repayment using borrowings under our revolving credit facility.  In February 2012, we paid in full a mortgage loan encumbering one of our properties that had a principal balance of approximately $12.4 million, an interest rate of 6.03% and a maturity date in March 2012.  In April 2012, we paid in full 17 mortgage loans encumbering 17 of our properties that had an aggregate principal balance of $32.6 million, weighted average interest rate of 6.95% and maturity dates in June and July 2012.  In June 2012, we paid in full a mortgage loan encumbering one of our properties that had a principal balance of approximately $3.1 million, an interest rate of 6.07% and a maturity date in September 2012.  In October 2012, we paid in full a mortgage loan encumbering one of our properties that had a principal balance of approximately $4.2 million, an interest rate of 6.50% and a maturity date in January 2013.

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, we acquired 16 properties located in 13 states for total purchase prices of approximately $364.9 million, excluding closing costs.  Our weighted average capitalization rate for these acquisitions was 7.9% based on estimated annual NOI.  Capitalization rate is the ratio of the estimated annual GAAP revenues less property operating expenses, if any, to the purchase price on the date of acquisition.  For more information about these acquisitions, see Note 3 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) appearing in Item 1 above.

 

We have previously disclosed an agreement to acquire one MOB, which has not yet closed, for approximately $15.3 million, including the assumption of approximately $9.7 million of mortgage debt and excluding closing costs.  The MOB is located in Minnesota and includes 76,637 square feet.  The closing of this acquisition is contingent upon customary closing conditions; accordingly, we can provide no assurance that we will purchase this property.

 

In August and October 2012, we entered into four separate agreements to acquire three senior living communities and one MOB for total purchase prices of approximately $68.3 million, including the assumption of approximately $12.3 million of mortgage debt and excluding closing costs.  The three senior living communities are located in Mississippi, Tennessee and Washington State and include a total of 437 living units and the MOB is located in Tennessee and includes 33,796 square feet.  The closings of these acquisitions are contingent upon completion of our diligence and other customary closing conditions; accordingly, we can provide no assurance that we will purchase these properties.

 

In May 2012, we entered into the Operations Transfer Agreement with Sunrise and Five Star related to 10 Communities that we were then leasing to Sunrise.  The Operations Transfer Agreement provides that we and Sunrise will accelerate the December 31, 2013 termination date of these Sunrise leases, that we will lease the 10 Communities to our TRS and that Five Star will manage the 10 Communities pursuant to long term management agreements.  In September and October 2012, we and Sunrise terminated Sunrise’s leases for three and five of the 10 Communities, respectively, and we entered into management agreements with Five Star with respect to these eight communities.  We currently expect the termination of the leases for, and the transition of the operations of, the remaining two communities to occur before December 31, 2012.  Pursuant to the Operations Transfer Agreement, we paid Sunrise $1.0 million to purchase the inventory and certain improvements owned by Sunrise at these 10 Communities.  The termination of the leases for those remaining two communities and Five Star’s management of those communities on our behalf are subject to conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals, and may not occur.

In July 2012, we sold one MOB located in Massachusetts with approximately 18,900 square feet for a sale price of approximately $1.1 million.

 

In May 2011, we and Five Star entered into the Bridge Loan under which we agreed to lend Five Star up to $80.0 million to fund a portion of Five Star’s purchase of a portfolio of six senior living communities.  In April 2012, Five Star repaid the then remaining $38.0 million and this Bridge Loan was terminated.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, pursuant to the terms of our existing leases with Five Star, we purchased $4.2 million and $18.2 million, respectively, of improvements made to our properties leased to Five Star, and, as a result, the annual rent payable to us by Five Star increased by approximately $335,000 and $1.5 million, respectively.  We used cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility to fund these purchases.

 

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, cash expenditures made and capitalized for leasing costs, building improvements and Managed Communities capital expenditures were as follows (dollars in thousands):

In July 2012, we issued 13,800,000 common shares in a public offering, raising net proceeds of approximately $287.1 million.  We used the net proceeds of this offering to repay borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility.

 

In July 2012, we sold $350.0 million of unsecured senior notes.  The notes require interest at a fixed rate of 5.625% per annum and are due in 2042.  Net proceeds from this sale of the notes, after underwriting discounts, fees and other expenses, were approximately $338.6 million.  Interest on the notes is payable quarterly in arrears.  We used a part of the net proceeds of this offering to repay borrowings under our revolving credit facility and we used the remaining net proceeds to prepay a part of our FNMA secured term loan and for general business purposes, which included funding a part of our recent acquisitions of properties described above.

 

In August 2012, we prepaid approximately $199.2 million of the outstanding principal balance of our FNMA secured term loan that had an interest rate of 6.4% at August 31, 2012 and a maturity date in September 2019, using, among other funds, net proceeds from our July 2012 debt offering described above.  As a result of this prepayment, 11 of the 28 properties securing this loan were released from the related mortgage.

 

We believe we will have access to various types of financings, including equity or debt offerings, to fund our future acquisitions and to pay our debts and other obligations as they become due.  Our ability to complete and the costs of our future debt transactions are expected to depend primarily upon market conditions and our credit ratings.  We have no control over market conditions.  Our credit ratings depend upon evaluations by credit rating agencies of our business practices and plans and, in particular, whether we appear to have the ability to maintain our earnings and service our debt funding obligations, to space our debt maturities and to balance our use of equity and debt capital so that our financial performance and leverage ratios afford us flexibility to withstand any reasonably anticipatable adverse changes.  We intend to conduct our business activities in a manner which will continue to afford us reasonable access to capital for investment and financing activities.  However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to complete any equity or debt offerings or that our cost of any future public or private financings will not increase.

 

On October 9, 2012, we declared a quarterly distribution of $0.39 per common share, or $68.9 million, to our common shareholders of record on October 22, 2012 for the quarter ended September 30, 2012.  This distribution will be paid to shareholders on or about November 20, 2012, using cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility, if necessary.

 

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

As of September 30, 2012, we had no off balance sheet arrangements that have had or that we expect would be reasonably likely to have a future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

 

Debt Covenants

 

Our principal debt obligations at September 30, 2012 were: $55.0 million outstanding under our $750.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility; four public issuances of unsecured senior notes including: $250.0 million due 2016 at an annual interest rate of 4.30%, $200.0 million due 2020 at an annual interest rate of 6.75%, $300.0 million due 2021 at an annual interest rate of 6.75% and $350.0 million due 2042 at an annual

interest rate of 5.625%; and $702.6 million of mortgages secured by 56 of our properties with maturity dates from 2013 to 2043.  We also have two properties encumbered by capital leases totaling $13.9 million at September 30, 2012.  Our unsecured senior notes are governed by an indenture.  The indenture for our unsecured senior notes and related supplements and our revolving credit facility contain a number of covenants which restrict our ability to incur debts, including debts secured by mortgages on our properties in excess of calculated amounts, require us to maintain a minimum net worth, restrict our ability to make distributions under certain circumstances and generally require us to maintain certain other financial ratios. As of September 30, 2012, we believe we were in compliance with all of the covenants under our indenture and related supplements, our revolving credit facility and our other debt obligations.

 

None of our indenture and related supplements, our revolving credit facility or our other debt obligations contain provisions for acceleration which could be triggered by our debt ratings.  However, in certain circumstances, our revolving credit facility uses our senior debt rating to determine the fees and the interest rate payable by us.

 

Our public debt indenture and related supplements contain cross default provisions, which are generally triggered upon default of any of our other debts of at least $10.0 million or, with respect to certain notes under such indenture and supplements, higher amounts.  Similarly, our revolving credit facility contains a cross default provision to any other debts of $25.0 million or more that are recourse debts and to any other debts of $75.0 million or more that are non-recourse debts.  Termination of our business management and property management agreements with RMR would cause a default under our revolving credit facility, if not approved by a majority of our lenders.

 

Related Person Transactions

 

We have relationships and historical and continuing transactions with our Trustees, our executive officers, RMR, Five Star, CWH and AIC and other companies to which RMR provides management services and others affiliated with or related to them.  For example, we have no employees and personnel and various services we require to operate our business are provided to us by RMR pursuant to management agreements; and RMR is owned by our Managing Trustees.  Also, as a further example, we have or had relationships with other companies to which RMR provides management services and which have trustees, directors or officers who are also trustees, directors or officers of ours or RMR, including: Five Star, which is our former subsidiary, our largest tenant and a manager of certain of our senior living communities, and we are Five Star’s largest stockholder; D&R Yonkers LLC, which is owned by our executive officers and to which our TRS subleases a portion of a senior living community we own in order to accommodate certain requirements of New York healthcare licensing laws; CWH, which was our former parent and with which we have engaged in transactions from time to time, including our acquiring MOBs from CWH; we, RMR, Five Star, CWH and four other companies to which RMR provides management services each currently own approximately 12.5% of AIC, and we and the other shareholders of AIC have property insurance in place providing $500.0 million of coverage pursuant to an insurance program arranged by AIC and with respect to which AIC is a reinsurer of certain coverage amounts.  For further information about these and other such relationships and related person transactions, please see Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference.  In addition, for more information about these transactions and relationships, please see elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including “Warning Concerning Forward Looking Statements” in Part I, and “Other Information” in Part II, Item 5, and our Annual Report, our Proxy Statement and our other filings with the SEC, including Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report, the sections captioned “Business,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Related Person Transactions” and “Warning Concerning Forward Looking Statements” of our Annual Report and the section captioned “Related Person Transactions and Company Review of Such Transactions” and the information regarding our Trustees

and executive officers in our Proxy Statement.  In addition, please see the section captioned “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report for a description of risks that may arise from these transactions and relationships.  Our filings with the SEC, including our Annual Report and our Proxy Statement, are available at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.  Copies of certain of our agreements with our related parties, including our business management agreement and property management agreement with RMR, our leases, forms of management agreements and related pooling agreements and Bridge Loan with Five Star, our agreements with D&R Yonkers LLC and its owners, various agreements we have with CWH and our shareholders agreement with AIC and its shareholders, are also publicly available as exhibits to our public filings with the SEC and accessible at the SEC’s website.

 

We believe that our agreements with RMR, Five Star, D&R Yonkers LLC and its owners, CWH and AIC are on commercially reasonable terms.  We also believe that our relationships with RMR, Five Star, CWH and AIC and their affiliated and related persons and entities benefit us and, in fact, provide us with competitive advantages in operating and growing our business.

 

Impact of Government Reimbursement

 

As of September 30, 2012 , approximately 94% of our NOI was generated from properties where a majority of the NOI is derived from private resources, and the remaining 6% of our NOI was generated from properties where a majority of the NOI was derived from Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements.  We and our tenants operate facilities in many states and participate in many federal and state health care payment programs, including the federal Medicare and state Medicaid programs for services in skilled nursing facilities, hospitals and other similar facilities, state Medicaid programs for services in assisted living communities and other federal and state health care payment programs.  Because of the current federal budget deficit and other federal spending priorities and continued difficult state fiscal conditions, there have been numerous recent legislative and regulatory actions or proposed actions with respect to federal Medicare rates and state Medicaid rates and federal payments to states for Medicaid programs .  Examples of these, and other information regarding such programs, are discussed under the caption, “Business — Government Regulation and Reimbursement” in our Annual Report and under the caption “Impact of Government Reimbursement” in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2012 and June 30, 2012.  The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, has issued updated Medicare prospective payment rates for skilled nursing facilities, or SNFs, and inpatient rehabilitation facilities, or IRFs, effective October 1, 2012, which CMS estimates will result in a net increase of approximately 1.8% in aggregate Medicare payments for SNFs and 2.1% in aggregate Medicare payments for IRFs in federal fiscal year 2013.  In June 2012, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld two major provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, or PPACA, which is discussed under the caption “Business—Government Regulation and Reimbursement” in our Annual Report.  These two provisions are the individual mandate, which requires most Americans to maintain health insurance or to pay a penalty, and the Medicaid expansion, which requires states to expand their Medicaid programs by 2014 to cover all individuals under the age of 65 with incomes not exceeding 133% of the federal poverty line.  In upholding the Medicaid expansion, the Supreme Court found that it violated the U.S. Constitution as drafted, but remedied the violation by modifying the expansion to preclude the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services from withholding existing federal Medicaid funds from states that fail to comply with the Medicaid expansion, instead allowing the Secretary only to deny new Medicaid expansion funding.  As a result of the Court’s ruling, some states may choose not to participate in the Medicaid expansion or may delay their participation.  We are unable to predict the impact of these or other recent legislative and regulatory actions or proposed actions with respect to state Medicaid rates and federal Medicare rates and federal payments to states for Medicaid programs on us or our tenants.  The changes implemented or to be implemented as a result of such actions could result in the failure of Medicare, Medicaid or private payment rates to cover our or our tenants’ costs of providing required services to residents, in reductions in payments or other circumstances that could have a material adverse effect on t he ability of some of our tenants to pay rent to us, the profitability of certain of our communities which are leased to our TRSs and the values of our properties.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

 

We are exposed to risks associated with market changes in interest rates.  We manage our exposure to this market risk by monitoring available financing alternatives.  Our strategy to manage exposure to changes in interest rates has not materially changed since December 31, 2011. Other than as described below, we do not foresee any significant changes in our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates or in how we manage this exposure in the near future.

(1)              The principal balances and interest rates are the amounts stated in the contracts.  In accordance with GAAP, our carrying values and recorded interest expense may be different because of market conditions at the time we assumed certain of these debts.

 

(2)              In October 2012 we repaid this debt.

 

No principal payments are due under our unsecured notes or bonds until maturity. Our mortgages require principal and interest payments through maturity pursuant to amortization schedules.  Because these debts bear interest at a fixed rate, changes in market interest rates during the term of these debts will not affect

our operating results.  However, if these debts are refinanced at interest rates which are 10% higher or lower than shown above, our annual interest cost would increase or decrease by approximately $10.9 million.

 

Changes in market interest rates do affect the fair value of our fixed rate debt obligations; increases in market interest rates decrease the fair value of our fixed rate debt, while decreases in market interest rates increase the fair value of our fixed rate debt.  Based on the balances outstanding at September 30, 2012, and discounted cash flow analysis through the maturity date of our fixed rate debt obligations, a hypothetical immediate 10% change in interest rates would change the fair value of those obligations by approximately $71.5 million.

 

Our unsecured senior notes and mortgages generally contain provisions that allow us to make repayments at par plus premiums which are generally designed to preserve stated yields to the debt holders. Also, as we have previously done, we occasionally have the opportunity to purchase our outstanding debt by open market purchases. These prepayment rights and purchases may afford us the opportunity to mitigate the risks arising from changes in interest rates.

 

Our unsecured revolving credit facility bears interest at floating rates and matures in June 2015.  As of September 30, 2012, we had $55.0 million outstanding and $695.0 million available under our revolving credit facility. We may make repayments and drawings under our revolving credit facility at any time without penalty.  We borrow in U.S. dollars and borrowings under our revolving credit facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a spread that is subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings.  Accordingly, we are vulnerable to changes in U.S. dollar based short term rates, specifically LIBOR.  In addition, we are vulnerable to increases in credit spreads due to market conditions.  Generally, a change in interest rates would not affect the value of our floating rate debt but would affect our operating results.  The following table presents the impact a 10% change in interest rates would have on our annual floating rate interest expense at September 30, 2012 (dollars in thousands):

In 2009, we closed the FNMA secured term loan financing for approximately $512.9 million.  A part of this loan is at a fixed rate and a part was at a floating rate.  In August 2012, we prepaid approximately $199.2 million of the outstanding principal balance of our FNMA secured term loan, including all of the floating rate part of this loan, and paid a prepayment premium on such amount prepaid.  As of September 30, 2012, our FNMA secured term loan has an outstanding principal balance of approximately $297.4 million, bears interest at a fixed rate and matures in September 2019.  We have the option to prepay the remaining outstanding principal balance of our FNMA obligation in order to mitigate the risks of refinancing or for other reasons.  This loan may be prepaid during the first 96 months of the loan term subject to our paying a standard make whole premium and thereafter for 1% of the amount of principal being prepaid which is reduced to zero in the last six months of this ten year loan.

 

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures.

 

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Managing Trustees, President and Chief Operating Officer and Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15.  Based upon that evaluation, our Managing Trustees, President and Chief Operating Officer and Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2012 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II.   Other Information

 

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

 

On September 14, 2012, pursuant to our 2012 Equity Compensation Plan, we granted an aggregate of 78,492 common shares of beneficial interest, par value $.01 per share, valued at $22.62 per share, the closing price of our common shares on the NYSE on that day, to our officers and certain employees of our manager, RMR.  We made these grants pursuant to an exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

 

Item 5. Other Information.

 

As discussed elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, in May 2011, we and Five Star entered into an AL Pooling Agreement which pools our management agreements with Five Star for communities that include assisted living units.  On October 30, 2012, we and Five Star entered into an amendment and restatement of the initial AL Pooling Agreement so that it includes only the management agreements for 20 of the communities that include assisted living units that we and Five Star agreed Five Star would manage for our account.  Also on October 30, 2012, we and Five Star entered into a second AL Pooling Agreement which pools our management agreements with Five Star for the remaining communities that include assisted living units that Five Star currently manages for our account (other than with respect to the senior living community in New York described in Note 11 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report).

 

The terms of the second AL Pooling Agreement are substantially similar to the terms of the amended and restated initial AL Pooling Agreement.  Descriptions of the first AL Pooling Agreement appear in Note 5 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report and in the sections of our Annual Report captioned “Business,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Portfolio Overview” and “—Related Person Transactions,” which descriptions are hereby incorporated by reference.

 

For more information about the AL Pooling Agreements and the management agreements pooled under the AL Pooling Agreements, please see the descriptions of those agreements elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including Note 11 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Portfolio Overview” and “—Related Person Transactions” in Part I, Item 2, and in our Annual Report, including the sections of the Annual Report referred to in the preceding paragraph.

 

The foregoing descriptions of the AL Pooling Agreements and the management agreements pooled under the AL Pooling Agreements are not complete and are subject to and qualified in their entirety by reference to the copy of the first AL Pooling Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.2 to our Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 13, 2011, or our May 2011 Current Report, the copy of the related representative form of accession agreement filed as Exhibit 10.4 to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2012, the copies of the initial AL Pooling Agreement, as amended and restated, and the second AL Pooling Agreement filed as Exhibits 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the copy of the representative form of management agreement for assisted living communities filed as Exhibit 10.1 to our May 2011 Current Report, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.

SENIOR HOUSING PROPERTIES TRUST

 

ARTICLES OF AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT

 

FIRST :  Senior Housing Properties Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (the “Trust”) formed under Title 8 of the Corporations and Associations Article of the Annotated Code of Maryland (as amended and in effect from time to time, and including any successor title thereto, “Title 8”), desires to amend and restate its Declaration of Trust as currently in effect and as hereinafter amended.  All references in the Declaration of Trust to specific sections of Title 8 shall include applicable successor provisions.

 

SECOND :  The following provisions are all the provisions of the Declaration of Trust currently in effect and as hereinafter amended:

 

ARTICLE I

 

FORMATION

 

The Trust is a real estate investment trust within the meaning of Title 8.  It is also intended that the Trust shall carry on a business as a “qualified REIT subsidiary” as described in the REIT provisions of the Code (as defined in Article VII below), for so long as it is wholly owned by HRPT Properties Trust and thereafter shall qualify and carry on business as a “real estate investment trust” as described therein.  The Trust shall not be deemed to be a general partnership, limited partnership, joint venture, joint stock company or a corporation, but nothing herein shall preclude the Trust from being treated for tax purposes as an association under the Code; nor shall the Trustees or shareholders or any of them for any purpose be, nor be deemed to be, nor be treated in any way whatsoever as, liable or responsible hereunder as partners or joint venturers.

 

ARTICLE II

 

NAME

 

The name of the Trust is:

 

Senior Housing Properties Trust

 

1



 

Under circumstances in which the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board of Trustees” or “Board”) determines that the use of the name of the Trust is not practicable, the Trust may use any other designation or name for the Trust.  To the extent permitted by Maryland law, the Board of Trustees may amend the Declaration of Trust to change the name of the Trust without any action by the shareholders.

 

ARTICLE III

 

PURPOSES AND POWERS

 

Section 3.1                                     Purposes .  The purposes for which the Trust is formed are to invest in and to acquire, hold, manage, administer, control and dispose of property and interests in property, including, without limitation or obligation, engaging in business as a real estate investment trust under the Code.

 

Section 3.2                                     Powers .  The Trust shall have all of the powers granted to real estate investment trusts by Title 8 and all other powers set forth in the Declaration of Trust which are not inconsistent with law and are appropriate to promote and attain the purposes set forth in the Declaration of Trust.

 

ARTICLE IV

 

RESIDENT AGENT

 

The name of the resident agent of the Trust in the State of Maryland is James J. Hanks, Jr., whose post office address is c/o Ballard Spahr Andrews & Ingersoll, LLP, 300 East Lombard Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21202.  The resident agent is a citizen of and resides in the State of Maryland.  The Trust may change such resident agent from time to time as the Board of Trustees shall determine.  The Trust may have such offices or places of business within or outside the State of Maryland as the Board of Trustees may from time to time determine.

 

ARTICLE V

The Board, without any action by the shareholders of the Trust, shall have and may exercise, on behalf of the Trust, without limitation, the power to terminate the status of the Trust as a real estate investment trust under the Code; to determine that compliance with any restriction or limitations on ownership and transfers of shares of the Trust’s beneficial interest set forth in Article VII of the Declaration of Trust is no longer required in order for the Trust to qualify as a real estate investment trust; to adopt, amend and repeal Bylaws not

Section 5.2.1                           The number of trustees of the Trust (hereinafter the “Trustees”) initially shall be two (2).  On the first date on which the Trust shall have more than one shareholder of record, the number of the Trustees shall automatically and without further action by the Board of Trustees increase to five (5), which number may thereafter be increased or decreased pursuant to the Bylaws of the Trust; provided, however, that no such increase or decrease shall result in the Trust having fewer than three (3) or more than seven (7) Trustees.  Any vacancies in the Board of Trustees shall be filled by a majority of the Trustees then in office, except that a majority of the entire Board of Trustees must fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in the number of Trustees.

 

Section 5.2.2                           On the first date on which the Trust shall have more than one shareholder of record, the Board of Trustees shall be classified into three groups:  Group I, Group II and Group III.  The number of Trustees in each group shall be determined by the Board in accordance with the Bylaws; provided that the number of Trustees in any one group shall not exceed the number of Trustees in any other group by more than one.  The Trustees in Group I shall serve for a term ending at the first annual meeting of shareholders following the end of the Trust’s fiscal year ending December 31, 1999, each Trustee in Group II shall serve for a term ending at the following annual meeting of shareholders and the Trustee in Group III shall serve for a term ending at the second following annual meeting of shareholders.  After the respective terms of the groups indicated, each such group of Trustees shall be elected for successive terms ending at the annual meeting of shareholders held during the third year after election.

(b)                                  Transfer in Trust .  If any Transfer of Equity Shares occurs which, if effective, would result in any Person Beneficially Owning or Constructively Owning Equity Shares in violation of Section 7.2.1(a)(i) or (ii),

(i)                                      the Board of Trustees obtains such representations and undertakings from such Person as are reasonably necessary to ascertain that no individual’s Beneficial or Constructive Ownership of such Equity Shares will violate Section 7.2.1(a)(ii);

 

(ii)                                   such Person does not and represents that it will not own, actually or Constructively, an interest in a tenant of the Trust (or a tenant of any entity owned or controlled by the Trust) that would cause the Trust to own, actually or Constructively, more than a 9.9% interest (as set forth in Section 856(d)(2)(B) of the Code) in such tenant and the Board of Trustees obtains such representations and undertakings from such Person as are reasonably necessary to ascertain this fact (for this purpose, a tenant from whom the Trust (or an entity owned or controlled by the Trust) derives (and is expected to continue to derive) a sufficiently small amount of revenue such that, in the opinion of the Board of Trustees, rent from such tenant would not adversely affect the Trust’s ability to qualify as a REIT, shall not be treated as a tenant of the Trust); and

 

(iii)                                such Person agrees that any violation or attempted violation of such representations or undertakings (or other action which is contrary to the restrictions contained in Sections 7.2.1 through 7.2.6) will result in such Equity Shares being automatically transferred to a Charitable Trust in accordance with Sections 7.2.1(b) and 7.3.

 

(b)                                  Prior to granting any exception pursuant to Section 7.2.7(a), the Board of Trustees may require a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service, or an opinion of counsel, in either case in form and substance satisfactory to the Board of Trustees in its sole discretion, as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to determine or ensure the Trust’s status as a REIT.  Notwithstanding the receipt of any ruling or opinion, the Board of Trustees may impose such conditions or restrictions as it deems appropriate in connection with granting such exception.

 

(c)                                   In determining whether to grant any exemption pursuant to Section 7.2.7(a), the Board of Trustees may consider, among other factors, (i) the general reputation and moral character of the person requesting an exemption, (ii) whether ownership of shares would be direct or through ownership attribution, (iii) whether the person’s ownership of shares would adversely affect the Trust’s ability to acquire additional properties or engage in other business and (iv) whether granting an exemption for the person requesting an exemption would adversely affect any of the Trust’s existing contractual arrangements.

 

(d)                                  Subject to Section 7.2.1(a)(ii), an underwriter which participates in a public offering or a private placement of Equity Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Equity Shares) may Beneficially Own or Constructively Own Equity Shares (or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Equity Shares) in excess of the Aggregate Share Ownership Limit, the Common Share Ownership Limit or both such limits, but only to the extent necessary to facilitate such public offering or private placement.

 

(e)                                   The Board of Trustees may only reduce the Excepted Holder Limit for an Excepted Holder:  (1) with the written consent of such Excepted Holder at any time, or (2) pursuant to the terms and conditions of the agreements and undertakings entered into with such Excepted Holder in connection with the establishment of the Excepted Holder Limit for that Excepted Holder.  No Excepted Holder Limit shall be reduced to a percentage that is less than the Common Share Ownership Limit for an Excepted Holder without the written consent of such Excepted Holder.

The shares evidenced by this certificate are subject to restrictions on Beneficial and Constructive Ownership and Transfer for the purpose, among others, of the Trust’s maintenance of its status as a Real Estate Investment Trust (a “REIT”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).  Subject to certain further restrictions and except as expressly provided in the Trust’s Declaration of Trust, (i) no Person may Beneficially or Constructively Own Common Shares of the Trust in excess of 9.8 percent (in value or number of shares) of the outstanding Common Shares of the Trust unless such Person is an Excepted Holder (in which case the Excepted Holder Limit shall be applicable); (ii) no Person may Beneficially or Constructively Own Equity Shares of the Trust in excess of 9.8 percent of the value of the total outstanding Equity Shares of the Trust, unless such Person is an Excepted Holder (in which case the Excepted Holder Limit shall be applicable); (iii) no Person may Beneficially or Constructively Own Equity Shares that would result in the Trust being “closely held” under Section 856(h) of the Code or otherwise cause the Trust to fail to qualify as a REIT; and (iv) no Person may Transfer Equity Shares if such Transfer would result in Equity Shares of the Trust being owned by fewer than 100 Persons.  Any Person who Beneficially or Constructively Owns or attempts to Beneficially or Constructively Own Equity Shares which cause or will cause a Person to Beneficially or Constructively Own Equity Shares in excess or in violation of the above limitations must immediately notify the Trust.  If any of the restrictions on transfer or ownership are violated, the Equity Shares represented hereby will be automatically transferred to a Trustee of a Charitable Trust for the benefit of one or more Charitable Beneficiaries.  In addition, upon the occurrence of certain events, attempted Transfers in violation of the restrictions described above may be void ab initio.  All capitalized terms in this legend have the meanings defined in the Trust’s Declaration of Trust, as the same may be amended from time to time, a copy of which, including the restrictions on transfer and ownership, will be furnished to each holder of Equity Shares of the Trust on request and without charge.

 

Instead of the foregoing legend, the certificate may state that the Trust will furnish a full statement about certain restrictions on transferability to a shareholder on request and without charge.

 

Section 7.3                                     Transfer of Equity Shares in Trust .

 

Section 7.3.1                           Ownership in Trust .  Upon any purported Transfer or other event described in Section 7.2.1(b) that would result in a transfer of Equity Shares to a Charitable Trust, such Equity Shares shall be deemed to have been transferred to the Trustee as trustee of a Charitable Trust for the exclusive benefit of one or more Charitable Beneficiaries.  Such transfer to the Trustee shall be deemed to be effective as of the close of business on the Business Day prior to the purported Transfer or other event that results in the transfer to the Charitable Trust pursuant to Section 7.2.1(b).  The Trustee shall be appointed by the Trust and shall be a Person unaffiliated with the Trust and any Prohibited Owner.  Each Charitable Beneficiary shall be designated by the Trust as provided in Section 7.3.6.

 

Section 7.3.2                           Status of Shares Held by the Trustee .  Equity Shares held by the Trustee shall be issued and outstanding Equity Shares of the Trust.  The Prohibited Owner shall have no rights in the shares held by the Trustee.  The Prohibited Owner shall not benefit economically from ownership of any shares held in trust

by the Trustee, shall have no rights to dividends or other distributions and shall not possess any rights to vote or other rights attributable to the shares held in the Charitable Trust.

 

Section 7.3.3                           Dividend and Voting Rights .  The Trustee shall have all voting rights and rights to dividends or other distributions with respect to Equity Shares held in the Charitable Trust, which rights shall be exercised for the exclusive benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary.  Any dividend or other distribution paid prior to the discovery by the Trust that Equity Shares have been transferred to the Trustee shall be paid with respect to such Equity Shares to the Trustee upon demand and any dividend or other distribution authorized but unpaid shall be paid when due to the Trustee.  Any dividends or distributions so paid over to the Trustee shall be held in trust for the Charitable Beneficiary.  The Prohibited Owner shall have no voting rights with respect to shares held in the Charitable Trust and, subject to Maryland law, effective as of the date that Equity Shares have been transferred to the Trustee, the Trustee shall have the authority (at the Trustee’s sole discretion) (i) to rescind as void any vote cast by a Prohibited Owner prior to the discovery by the Trust that Equity Shares have been transferred to the Trustee and (ii) to recast such vote in accordance with the desires of the Trustee acting for the benefit of the Charitable Beneficiary; provided, however, that if the Trust has already taken irreversible trust action, then the Trustee shall not have the authority to rescind and recast such vote.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article VII, until the Trust has received notification that Equity Shares have been transferred into a Charitable Trust, the Trust shall be entitled to rely on its share transfer and other shareholder records for purposes of preparing lists of shareholders entitled to vote at meetings, determining the validity and authority of proxies and otherwise conducting votes of shareholders.

 

Section 7.3.4                           Sale of Shares by Trustee .  Within 20 days of receiving notice from the Trust that Equity Shares have been transferred to the Charitable Trust, the Trustee of the Charitable Trust shall sell the shares held in the Charitable Trust to a person, designated by the Trustee, whose ownership of the shares will not violate the ownership limitations set forth in Section 7.2.1(a).  Upon such sale, the interest of the Charitable Beneficiary in the shares sold shall terminate and the Trustee shall distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the Prohibited Owner and to the Charitable Beneficiary as provided in this Section 7.3.4.  The Prohibited Owner shall receive the lesser of (1) the price paid by the Prohibited Owner for the shares or, if the Prohibited Owner did not give value for the shares in connection with the event causing the shares to be held in the Charitable Trust (e.g., in the case of a gift, devise or other such transaction), the Market Price of the shares on the day of the event causing the shares to be held in the Charitable Trust and (2) the price per share received by the Trustee from the sale or other disposition of the shares held in the Charitable Trust.  Any net sales proceeds in excess of the amount payable to the Prohibited Owner shall be immediately paid to the Charitable Beneficiary.  If, prior to the discovery by the Trust that Equity Shares have been transferred to the Trustee, such shares are sold by a Prohibited Owner, then (i) such shares shall be deemed to have been sold on behalf of the Charitable Trust and (ii) to the extent that the Prohibited Owner received an amount for such shares that exceeds the amount that such Prohibited Owner was entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 7.3.4, such excess shall be paid to the Trustee upon demand.

 

Section 7.3.5                           Purchase Right in Shares Transferred to the Trustee .  Equity Shares transferred to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been offered for sale to the Trust, or its designee, at a price per share equal to the lesser of (i) the price per share in the transaction that resulted in such transfer to the Charitable Trust (or, in the case of a devise or gift, the Market Price at the time of such devise or gift) and (ii) the Market Price on the date the Trust, or its designee, accepts such offer.  The Trust shall have the right to accept such offer until the Trustee has sold the shares held in the Charitable Trust pursuant to Section 7.3.4.  Upon such a sale to the Trust, the interest of the Charitable Beneficiary in the shares sold shall terminate and the Trustee shall distribute the net proceeds of the sale to the Prohibited Owner.

 

Section 7.3.6                           Designation of Charitable Beneficiaries .  By written notice to the Trustee, the Trust shall designate one or more nonprofit organizations to be the Charitable Beneficiary of the interest in the

 

12



 

Charitable Trust such that Equity Shares held in the Charitable Trust would not violate the restrictions set forth in Section 7.2.1(a) in the hands of such Charitable Beneficiary.

 

Section 7.4                                     NYSE Transactions .  Nothing in this Article VII shall preclude the settlement of any transaction entered into through the facilities of the NYSE or any other national securities exchange or automated inter-dealer quotation system.  The fact that the settlement of any transaction occurs shall not negate the effect of any other provision of this Article VII and any transferee in such a transaction shall be subject to all of the provisions and limitations set forth in this Article VII.

 

Section 7.5                                     Enforcement .  The Trust is authorized specifically to seek equitable relief, including injunctive relief, to enforce the provisions of this Article VII.

 

Section 7.6                                     Non-Waiver .  No delay or failure on the part of the Trust or the Board of Trustees in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any right of the Trust or the Board of Trustees, as the case may be, except to the extent specifically waived in writing.

AND TRANSACTIONS WITH THE TRUST

 

Section 9.1                                     Limitation of Shareholder Liability .  No shareholder shall be liable for any debt, claim, demand, judgment or obligation of any kind of, against or with respect to the Trust by reason of his being a shareholder, nor shall any shareholder be subject to any personal liability whatsoever, in tort, contract or otherwise, to any person in connection with the property or the affairs of the Trust by reason of his being a shareholder.

Section 9.4                                     Indemnification .  The Trust shall, to the maximum extent permitted by Maryland law in effect from time to time, indemnify, and pay or reimburse reasonable expenses in advance of final disposition of a proceeding to, (a) any individual who is a present or former shareholder, Trustee or officer of the Trust or (b) any individual who, while a Trustee of the Trust and at the request of the Trust, serves or has served as a trustee, director, officer, partner, employee or agent of another real estate investment trust, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or any other enterprise from and against any claim or liability to which such person may become subject or which such person may incur by reason of his status as a present or former shareholder, Trustee or officer of the Trust.  The Trust shall have the power, with the approval of its Board of Trustees, to provide such indemnification and advancement of expenses to a person who served a predecessor of the Trust in any of the capacities described in (a) or (b) above and to any employee or agent of the Trust or a predecessor of the Trust.

(i)                                      The fact of the common directorship, trusteeship or interest is disclosed or known to:

 

(A)                                The Board of Trustees or a proper committee thereof, and the Board of Trustees or such Committee authorizes, approves or ratifies the contract or transaction by the affirmative vote of a majority of disinterested Trustees, even if the disinterested Trustees constitute less than a quorum; or

The financial statements delivered pursuant to this Article IV are in addition to any financial statements required to be prepared and delivered pursuant to the Management Agreements.

 

ARTICLE V
SHORTFALL; NON-ECONOMIC FACILITIES

 

5.01.                         Shortfall .  If in each of three consecutive calendar years the Aggregate TRS Priority Return (together with any accrued interest) has not been paid in full (a “Priority Return Shortfall”), by notice given after December 31, 2017, within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Aggregate Annual Statement for such third year, the TRSes may terminate all, but not less than all, of the Management Agreements.  Prior to exercising the right to terminate, TRSes shall give Manager notice and if within ten (10) days thereafter, Manager funds the Priority Return Shortfall (a “Manager Shortfall Advance”), TRSes shall not exercise the right to terminate, provided Manger may not exercise its right to fund the Priority Return Shortfall more frequently than once every four (4) years.  Manager may recover any amounts paid by it as a Manager Shortfall Advance as provided in Section 3.01, provided that amounts not recovered during the four (4) calendar years following the year in which payment of a Manager Shortfall Advance was made shall be deemed waived and shall not be payable in any subsequent year.

 

5.02.                         Non-Economic Facilities .  If the Gross Revenues of any Facility are insufficient to pay all Facility Expenses and the Base Fee of such Facility in full during each of two (2) consecutive calendar years, Manager shall, upon thirty (30) days notice to the relevant TRS, be entitled to designate such Facility a “Non-Economic Facility.”  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Manager shall not be entitled without the Owner’s consent to designate Facilities for which the

 

4



 

Invested Capital in the aggregate would exceed twenty percent (20%) of Aggregate Invested Capital and further provided for purposes of this Section 5.02 only, Aggregate Invested Capital shall be determined without giving effect to the termination of the Management Agreement of a Non-Economic Facility and without reduction for proceeds from the sale, or deemed sale, of any Non-Economic Facility.  Manager may request an increase in the foregoing twenty percent (20%) threshold at any time, which Owner may accept or reject in its sole discretion.

 

Manager shall market a Facility designated as a Non-Economic Facility for sale and any costs incurred by the Manager in connection with such marketing activities and the sale of such Facility shall be paid out of the net proceeds of such sale.  The relevant TRS and Owner shall cooperate with Manager in compiling any relevant information, preparing marketing materials and otherwise in connection with the sale of a Non-Economic Facility.

 

5.03.                         Sale Process .  If a Non-Economic Facility is marketed for sale in accordance with Section 5.02 and Manager receives an offer therefor which it wishes to accept on behalf of the TRS and Owner, Manager shall give the relevant TRS prompt notice thereof, which notice shall include a copy of the offer and any other information reasonably requested by such TRS.  If the relevant TRS, on behalf of the relevant Owner, shall fail to accept or reject such offer within seven (7) Business Days after receipt of such notice and other information from Manager, such offer shall be deemed to be accepted.  If the offer is rejected by the relevant TRS on behalf of the relevant Owner and, if the Manager elects to continue marketing the Facility by providing written notice to the relevant TRS within seven (7) days of such rejection and the Manager does not obtain another offer within ninety (90) days that is accepted by the relevant TRS, the Non-Economic Facility shall be deemed to have been sold to the relevant TRS on the date, at the price and on the other terms contained in the offer.  If a Non-Economic Facility is sold to a third party or deemed to have been sold to the relevant Owner pursuant to such offer, effective as of the date of sale or deemed sale: (i) the Management Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Non-Economic Facility; (ii) the Aggregate Invested Capital shall be reduced by an amount equal to the net proceeds of sale after reduction for the costs and expenses of the relevant TRS, relevant Owner and/or Manager (or, in the case of a deemed sale, the net proceeds of sale determined by reference to such offer, after reduction for any amounts actually expended and any amounts which would reasonably have been expected to have been expended if the sale had been consummated, by the relevant TRS, relevant Owner and/or Manager).  If the reduction of Aggregate Invested Capital is less than the Invested Capital of the Non-Economic Facility sold or deemed sold, the difference shall be proportionately reallocated to the Invested Capital of the remaining Facilities.

 

ARTICLE VI
ACCOUNTS

 

All Working Capital and all Gross Revenues of each of the Facilities may be pooled and deposited in one or more bank accounts in the name(s) of the TRSes designated by Manager, which accounts may, except as required by any Mortgage and related loan documentation or applicable law, be commingled accounts containing other funds owned by or managed by Manager.  Manager shall be authorized to access the accounts without the approval of TRSes, subject to any limitation on the maximum amount of any check, if any, established between Manager and TRSes as part of the Annual Operating Budgets.  One or more TRSes shall be a

signatory on all accounts maintained with respect to the Facility, and TRSes shall have the right to require that one or more TRS’s signature be required on all checks/withdrawals after the occurrence of an Event of Default by Manager under this Agreement.  The TRSes shall provide such instructions to the applicable bank(s) as are necessary to permit Manager to implement the Manager’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  The failure of any TRS to provide such instructions shall relieve Manager of its obligations hereunder until such time as such failure is cured.

 

ARTICLE VII
ADDITION AND REMOVAL OF FACILITIES

 

7.01.                         Addition of Facilities .  At any time and from time to time, Manager and any TRS or any Affiliate of TRS (an “Additional TRS”) which enters into a management agreement with Manager (an “Additional Management Agreement”) for the operation of an additional assisted living facility or skilled nursing facility (an “Additional Facility”), the Additional TRS may become a party to this Agreement by signing an accession agreement confirming the applicability of this Agreement to such Additional Facility.  If an Additional Facility is made subject to this Agreement other than on the first day of a calendar month, the parties shall include such prorated amounts of the Gross Revenues and Facility Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) applicable to the Additional Facility for such calendar month, as mutually agreed in their reasonable judgment, in the calculation of Aggregate Gross Revenues and Aggregate Facility Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) for the calendar month in which the Additional Facility became subject to this Agreement and shall make any other prorations, adjustments, allocations and changes required.  Additionally, any amounts held as Working Capital or for Capital Replacements at the Additional Facility, if any, shall be held by Manager under this Agreement.

 

7.02.                         Removal of Facilities .  From and after the date of termination of any Management Agreement, the Facility managed thereunder shall no longer be subject to this Agreement.  If the termination occurs on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, the parties shall exclude such prorated amounts of the Gross Revenues and Facility Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) applicable to such Facility for such calendar month, as mutually agreed in their reasonable judgment, in the calculation of Aggregate Gross Revenues and Aggregate Facility Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) for the calendar month in which the termination occurred.  Additionally, the relevant TRS and Manager, both acting reasonably, shall mutually agree to the portion of the Working Capital and Aggregate Gross Revenues and any amounts being held by Manager for Capital Replacements allocable to the Facility being removed from this Agreement and the amount of the Working Capital, Aggregate Gross Revenues and amounts being held by Manager for Capital Replacements, if any, so allocated shall be remitted to the relevant TRS and the relevant TRS and Manager shall make any other prorations, adjustments, allocations and changes required.

ARTICLE III
PRIORITIES FOR
DISTRIBUTION OF AGGREGATE GROSS REVENUES

 

3.01.                         Priorities for Distribution of Aggregate Gross Revenues .  Aggregate Gross Revenues shall be distributed in the following order of priority:

 

(1)                                   First, to pay Aggregate Facility Expenses (which shall not include the Aggregate Base Fee).

 

2



 

(2)                                   Second, to Manager to pay the Aggregate Base Fee and any interest that may have accrued pursuant to Section 3.02.

 

(3)                                   Third, to TRS in an amount equal to the Aggregate TRS Priority Return and any interest that may have accrued pursuant to Section 3.02.

 

(4)                                   Fourth, to Manager to reimburse it for payment of any Manager Shortfall Advance, plus applicable interest calculated at the Interest Rate.

 

(5)                                   Fifth, to Manager, in an amount equal to the Aggregate Incentive Fee.

 

(6)                                   Sixth, to TRS, in an amount equal to the Aggregate TRS Residual Payment.

 

3.02.                         Timing of Payments .  Payment of the Aggregate Facility Expenses, excluding the Aggregate Base Fee, shall be made in the ordinary course of business.  The Aggregate Base Fee and accrued interest, if any, shall be paid on the first Business Day of each calendar month, in advance, based upon Manager’s then estimate of the prior month’s Aggregate Gross Revenues.  The Aggregate TRS Priority Return and accrued interest, if any, shall be paid on the first Business Day of each calendar month, in advance in approximately equal monthly installments, based upon Aggregate Invested Capital most recently reported to Manager by TRS. The Aggregate Base Fee and Aggregate TRS’s Priority Return shall be subject to adjustment by increasing or decreasing the payment due in the following month based upon Aggregate Gross Revenues reflected in the Aggregate Monthly Financial Statements and increases or decreases in Aggregate Invested Capital reported to Manager by TRS, as the case may be.  If any installment of the Aggregate Base Fee or the Aggregate TRS Priority Return is not paid when due, it shall accrue and bear interest at the Interest Rate. The Aggregate Incentive Fee and Aggregate TRS Residual Payment shall be paid on the last Business Day of the calendar month following the month to which such Aggregate Incentive Fee and Aggregate TRS Residual Payment relate, in arrears, and shall be based upon the Aggregate Monthly Statements.  Additional adjustments to all payments will be made on an annual basis based upon the Aggregate Monthly Statements for the full calendar year and any audits conducted pursuant to Section 6.03 of the Management Agreements.  The Aggregate TRS Priority Return and Aggregate TRS Residual Payment shall be allocated among TRSes as the TRSes shall determine in their sole discretion and Manager shall have no responsibility or liability in connection therewith.

 

3.03.                         Relationship with Management Agreements .  For as long as this Agreement is in effect with respect to a Facility, the provisions of Section 3.01 and 3.02 shall supersede Sections 5.01 and 5.02 of the Management Agreement then in effect with the applicable Facility.

 

ARTICLE IV
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Manager shall prepare and deliver the following financial statements to the TRSes:

 

(a)                              not later than ten Business Days after the end of each calendar month, a consolidated balance sheet and related statement of income and expense of all of the Facilities for such calendar month and for the then current calendar year to date, certified

 

3



 

by Manager’s Controller on a monthly basis and by Manager’s Chief Financial Officer on a quarterly basis as being true and correct to the best of his/her knowledge (“Aggregate Monthly Statement”).

 

(b)                             Manager shall also prepare and deliver such other statements or reports as any TRS may, from time to time, reasonably request.

 

The financial statements delivered pursuant to this Article IV are in addition to any financial statements required to be prepared and delivered pursuant to the Management Agreements.

 

ARTICLE V
SHORTFALL; NON-ECONOMIC FACILITIES

 

5.01.                         Shortfall .  If in each of three consecutive calendar years the Aggregate TRS Priority Return (together with any accrued interest) has not been paid in full (a “Priority Return Shortfall”), by notice given after December 31 of the fifth calendar year following the year in which the last Facility or Additional Facility became subject to this Agreement, within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Aggregate Annual Statement for such third year, the TRSes may terminate all, but not less than all, of the Management Agreements.  Prior to exercising the right to terminate, TRSes shall give Manager notice and if within ten (10) days thereafter, Manager funds the Priority Return Shortfall (a “Manager Shortfall Advance”), TRSes shall not exercise the right to terminate, provided Manger may not exercise its right to fund the Priority Return Shortfall more frequently than once every four (4) years.  Manager may recover any amounts paid by it as a Manager Shortfall Advance as provided in Section 3.01, provided that amounts not recovered during the four (4) calendar years following the year in which payment of a Manager Shortfall Advance was made shall be deemed waived and shall not be payable in any subsequent year.

 

5.02.                         Non-Economic Facilities .  If the Gross Revenues of any Facility are insufficient to pay all Facility Expenses and the Base Fee of such Facility in full during each of two (2) consecutive calendar years, Manager shall, upon thirty (30) days notice to the relevant TRS, be entitled to designate such Facility a “Non-Economic Facility.”  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Manager shall not be entitled without the Owner’s consent to designate Facilities for which the Invested Capital in the aggregate would exceed twenty percent (20%) of Aggregate Invested Capital and further provided for purposes of this Section 5.02 only, Aggregate Invested Capital shall be determined without giving effect to the termination of the Management Agreement of a Non-Economic Facility and without reduction for proceeds from the sale, or deemed sale, of any Non-Economic Facility.  Manager may request an increase in the foregoing twenty percent (20%) threshold at any time, which Owner may accept or reject in its sole discretion.

 

Manager shall market a Facility designated as a Non-Economic Facility for sale and any costs incurred by the Manager in connection with such marketing activities and the sale of such Facility shall be paid out of the net proceeds of such sale.  The relevant TRS and Owner shall cooperate with Manager in compiling any relevant information, preparing marketing materials and otherwise in connection with the sale of a Non-Economic Facility.

 

5.03.                         Sale Process .  If a Non-Economic Facility is marketed for sale in accordance with Section 5.02 and Manager receives an offer therefor which it wishes to accept on behalf of the

 

4



 

TRS and Owner, Manager shall give the relevant TRS prompt notice thereof, which notice shall include a copy of the offer and any other information reasonably requested by such TRS.  If the relevant TRS, on behalf of the relevant Owner, shall fail to accept or reject such offer within seven (7) Business Days after receipt of such notice and other information from Manager, such offer shall be deemed to be accepted.  If the offer is rejected by the relevant TRS on behalf of the relevant Owner and, if the Manager elects to continue marketing the Facility by providing written notice to the relevant TRS within seven (7) days of such rejection and the Manager does not obtain another offer within ninety (90) days that is accepted by the relevant TRS, the Non-Economic Facility shall be deemed to have been sold to the relevant TRS on the date, at the price and on the other terms contained in the offer.  If a Non-Economic Facility is sold to a third party or deemed to have been sold to the relevant Owner pursuant to such offer, effective as of the date of sale or deemed sale: (i) the Management Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Non-Economic Facility; (ii) the Aggregate Invested Capital shall be reduced by an amount equal to the net proceeds of sale after reduction for the costs and expenses of the relevant TRS, relevant Owner and/or Manager (or, in the case of a deemed sale, the net proceeds of sale determined by reference to such offer, after reduction for any amounts actually expended and any amounts which would reasonably have been expected to have been expended if the sale had been consummated, by the relevant TRS, relevant Owner and/or Manager).  If the reduction of Aggregate Invested Capital is less than the Invested Capital of the Non-Economic Facility sold or deemed sold, the difference shall be proportionately reallocated to the Invested Capital of the remaining Facilities.

 

ARTICLE VI
ACCOUNTS

 

All Working Capital and all Gross Revenues of each of the Facilities may be pooled and deposited in one or more bank accounts in the name(s) of the TRSes designated by Manager, which accounts may, except as required by any Mortgage and related loan documentation or applicable law, be commingled accounts containing other funds owned by or managed by Manager.  Manager shall be authorized to access the accounts without the approval of TRSes, subject to any limitation on the maximum amount of any check, if any, established between Manager and TRSes as part of the Annual Operating Budgets.  One or more TRSes shall be a signatory on all accounts maintained with respect to the Facility, and TRSes shall have the right to require that one or more TRS’s signature be required on all checks/withdrawals after the occurrence of an Event of Default by Manager under this Agreement.  The TRSes shall provide such instructions to the applicable bank(s) as are necessary to permit Manager to implement the Manager’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  The failure of any TRS to provide such instructions shall relieve Manager of its obligations hereunder until such time as such failure is cured.

 

ARTICLE VII
ADDITION AND REMOVAL OF FACILITIES

 

7.01.                         Addition of Facilities .  At any time and from time to time, Manager and any TRS or any Affiliate of TRS (an “Additional TRS”) which enters into a management agreement with Manager (an “Additional Management Agreement”) for the operation of an additional assisted living facility or skilled nursing facility (an “Additional Facility”), the Additional TRS may

 

5



 

become a party to this Agreement by signing an accession agreement confirming the applicability of this Agreement to such Additional Facility.  If an Additional Facility is made subject to this Agreement other than on the first day of a calendar month, the parties shall include such prorated amounts of the Gross Revenues and Facility Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) applicable to the Additional Facility for such calendar month, as mutually agreed in their reasonable judgment, in the calculation of Aggregate Gross Revenues and Aggregate Facility Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) for the calendar month in which the Additional Facility became subject to this Agreement and shall make any other prorations, adjustments, allocations and changes required.  Additionally, any amounts held as Working Capital or for Capital Replacements at the Additional Facility, if any, shall be held by Manager under this Agreement.

 

7.02.                         Removal of Facilities .  From and after the date of termination of any Management Agreement, the Facility managed thereunder shall no longer be subject to this Agreement.  If the termination occurs on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, the parties shall exclude such prorated amounts of the Gross Revenues and Facility Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) applicable to such Facility for such calendar month, as mutually agreed in their reasonable judgment, in the calculation of Aggregate Gross Revenues and Aggregate Facility Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) for the calendar month in which the termination occurred.  Additionally, the relevant TRS and Manager, both acting reasonably, shall mutually agree to the portion of the Working Capital and Aggregate Gross Revenues and any amounts being held by Manager for Capital Replacements allocable to the Facility being removed from this Agreement and the amount of the Working Capital, Aggregate Gross Revenues and amounts being held by Manager for Capital Replacements, if any, so allocated shall be remitted to the relevant TRS and the relevant TRS and Manager shall make any other prorations, adjustments, allocations and changes required.

 

ARTICLE VIII
TERM AND TERMINATION

 

8.01.                         Term .  This Agreement shall continue and remain in effect indefinitely unless terminated pursuant to Section 8.02.

 

8.02.                         Termination .  This Agreement may be terminated as follows:

 

(a)                              By the mutual consent of Manager and TRSes which are parties to the Agreement.

 

(b)                             Automatically, if all Management Agreements terminate or expire for any reason.

 

(c)                              By Manager, if any or all TRSes do not cure a material breach of this Agreement by any TRS or Owner within thirty (30) days of written notice of such breach from Manager and if such breach is not cured, it shall be an Event of Default under the Management Agreements.

 

(d)                             By TRSes, if Manager does not cure a material breach of this Agreement by Manager within thirty (30) days of written notice of such breach from any TRS.

 

6



 

8.03.                         Effect of Termination .  Upon the termination of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in Section 12.02(i) or 14.04 of the Management Agreements, Manager shall be compensated for its services only through the date of termination and all amounts remaining in any accounts maintained by Manager pursuant to Article VI, after payment of such amounts as may be due to Manager hereunder, shall be distributed to TRSes.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the termination of any single Management Agreement, pooled funds shall be allocated as described in Section 7.02.

 

8.04.                         Survival .  The following Sections of this Agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement:  8.03 and Article IX.

3.                                       Arbitration .  Article 22 of Amended Lease No. 1 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

 

ARTICLE 22

 

ARBITRATION

 

(a)                                  Any disputes, claims or controversies between or among the parties hereto (i) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or (ii) brought by or on behalf of any shareholder of the parties hereto (which, for purposes of this Article 22 , shall mean any shareholder of record or any beneficial owner of shares of the parties hereto, or any former shareholder of record or beneficial owner of shares of the parties hereto), either on his, her or its own behalf, on behalf of the parties hereto or on behalf of any series or class of shares of the parties hereto or shareholders of the parties hereto against the parties hereto or any trustee, director, officer, manager (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor), agent or employee of the parties hereto, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, including this arbitration agreement, the declaration of trust, limited liability company agreement, partnership agreement or analogous governing instruments, as applicable, of the parties hereto, or the bylaws of the parties hereto (all of which are referred to as “ Disputes ”), or relating in any way to such a Dispute or Disputes, shall on the demand of any party to such Dispute be resolved through binding and final arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “ Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ”) then in effect, except as those Rules may be modified in this Article 22 .  For the avoidance of doubt, and not as a limitation, Disputes are intended to include derivative actions against trustees, directors, officers or managers of the parties hereto and class actions by a shareholder against those individuals or entities and the parties hereto.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party.

 

(b)                                  There shall be three arbitrators.  If there are only two parties to the Dispute (with, for purposes of this Article 22 , any and all parties involved in the Dispute and owned by the same ultimate parent entity treated as one party), each party shall select one arbitrator within 15 days after receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration.  Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of such parties.  If either party fails to timely select an arbitrator,

 

2



 

the other party to the Dispute shall select the second arbitrator who shall be neutral and impartial and shall not be affiliated with or an interested person of either party. If there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, shall each select, by the vote of a majority of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be, one arbitrator. Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be.  If either all claimants or all respondents fail to timely select an arbitrator then such arbitrator (who shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) shall be appointed by the AAA.  The two arbitrators so appointed shall jointly appoint the third and presiding arbitrator (who shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) within 15 days of the appointment of the second arbitrator.  If the third arbitrator has not been appointed within the time limit specified herein, then the AAA shall provide a list of proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules, and the arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with a listing, striking and ranking procedure, with each party having a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.

 

(c)                                   The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

 

(d)                                  There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

 

(e)                                   In rendering an award or decision (the “ Award ”), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.  Any arbitration proceedings or Award rendered hereunder and the validity, effect and interpretation of this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.  The Award shall be in writing and may, but shall not be required to, briefly state the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which it is based.

 

(f)                                    Except to the extent expressly provided by Article 22 or as otherwise agreed by the parties, each party involved in a Dispute shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), and the arbitrators shall not render an award that would include shifting of any such costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or, in a derivative case or class action, award any portion of Assignor’s or Assignee’s award to the claimant or the claimant’s attorneys.  Except to the extent otherwise agreed by the parties, each party (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, respectively) shall bear the costs and expenses of its (or their) selected arbitrator and the parties (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand) shall equally bear the costs and expenses of the third appointed arbitrator.

 

(g)                                   An Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims, counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and

 

3



 

except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

(h)                                  Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  Each party against which the Award assesses a monetary obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the 30 th  day following the date of the Award or such other date as the Award may provide.

 

(i)                                      This Article 22 is intended to benefit and be enforceable by the shareholders, trustees, directors, officers, managers (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor), agents or employees of any party and the parties and shall be binding on the shareholders of any party and the parties, as applicable, and shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that such individuals or entities may have by contract or otherwise.

 

4.                                       Schedule 1 .  Schedule 1 to Amended Lease No. 1 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with Schedule 1 attached hereto.

 

5.                                       Exhibit A .  Exhibit A to Amended Lease No. 1 is amended by adding Exhibit A-64 and Exhibit A-65 attached hereto immediately following Exhibit A-63 to Amended Lease No. 1.

 

6.                                       Ratification .  As amended hereby, Amended Lease No. 1 is hereby ratified and confirmed.

1.                                       Definition of Minimum Rent .  The defined term “Minimum Rent” set forth in Section 1.67 of Amended Lease No. 2 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

 

Minimum Rent   shall mean the sum of Sixty-Nine Million Eight Hundred Ninety Thousand Two Hundred Sixty and 00/100 Dollars ($69,890,260.00) per annum.

(a)                                  Any disputes, claims or controversies between or among the parties hereto (i) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or (ii) brought by or on behalf of any shareholder of the parties hereto (which, for purposes of this Article 22 , shall mean any shareholder of record or any beneficial owner of shares of the parties hereto, or any former shareholder of record or beneficial owner of shares of the parties hereto), either on his, her or its own behalf, on behalf of the parties hereto or on behalf of any series or class of shares of the parties hereto or shareholders of the parties hereto against the parties hereto or any trustee, director, officer, manager (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor), agent or employee of the parties hereto, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, including this arbitration agreement, the declaration of trust, limited liability company agreement, partnership agreement or analogous governing instruments, as applicable, of the parties hereto, or the bylaws of the parties hereto (all of which are referred to as “ Disputes ”), or relating in any way to such a Dispute or Disputes, shall on the demand of any party to such Dispute be resolved through binding and final arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “ Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ”) then in effect, except as those Rules may be modified in this Article 22 .  For the avoidance of doubt, and not as a limitation, Disputes are intended to include derivative actions against trustees, directors, officers or managers of the parties hereto and class actions by a shareholder against those individuals or entities and the parties hereto.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party.

(b)                                  There shall be three arbitrators.  If there are only two parties to the Dispute (with, for purposes of this Article 22 , any and all parties involved in the Dispute and owned by the same ultimate parent entity treated as one party), each party shall select one arbitrator within 15 days after receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration.  Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of such parties.  If either party fails to timely select an arbitrator, the other party to the Dispute shall select the second arbitrator who shall be neutral and impartial and shall not be affiliated with or an interested person of either party. If there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, shall each select, by the vote of a majority of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be, one arbitrator. Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be.  If either all claimants or all respondents fail to timely select an arbitrator then such arbitrator (who shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) shall be appointed by the AAA.  The two arbitrators so appointed shall jointly appoint the third and presiding arbitrator (who shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) within 15 days of the appointment of the second arbitrator.  If the third arbitrator has not been appointed within the time limit specified herein, then the AAA shall provide a list of proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules, and the arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with a listing, striking and ranking procedure, with each party having a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.

 

(c)                                   The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

 

(d)                                  There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

 

(e)                                   In rendering an award or decision (the “ Award ”), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.  Any arbitration proceedings or Award rendered hereunder and the validity, effect and interpretation of this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.  The Award shall be in writing and may, but shall not be required to, briefly state the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which it is based.

 

(f)                                    Except to the extent expressly provided by Article 22 or as otherwise agreed by the parties, each party involved in a Dispute shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), and the arbitrators shall not render an award that would include shifting of any such costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or, in a derivative case or class action, award any portion of Assignor’s or Assignee’s award to the claimant or the claimant’s attorneys.  Except to the extent otherwise agreed by the parties, each party (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, respectively) shall bear the costs and expenses of its (or their) selected arbitrator and the parties (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand) shall equally bear the costs and expenses of the third appointed arbitrator.

 

(g)                                   An Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims,

 

3



 

counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

(h)                                  Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  Each party against which the Award assesses a monetary obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the 30 th  day following the date of the Award or such other date as the Award may provide.

 

(i)                                      This Article 22 is intended to benefit and be enforceable by the shareholders, trustees, directors, officers, managers (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor), agents or employees of any party and the parties and shall be binding on the shareholders of any party and the parties, as applicable, and shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that such individuals or entities may have by contract or otherwise.

 

4.                                       Schedule 1 .  Schedule 1 to Amended Lease No. 2 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with Schedule 1 attached hereto.

 

5.                                       Exhibit A .  Exhibit A to Amended Lease No. 2 is amended by adding Exhibits A-53 through A-57 , attached hereto, immediately following Exhibit A-52 to Amended Lease No. 2.

 

6.                                       Ratification .  As amended hereby, Amended Lease No. 2 is hereby ratified and confirmed.

1.                                       Definition of Minimum Rent .  The defined term “Minimum Rent” set forth in Section 1.68 of Amended Lease No. 4 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

 

Minimum Rent   shall mean the sum of Thirty-Four Million Two Hundred Fifty-Four Thousand Two Hundred Sixty Nine and 56/100 Dollars ($34,254,269.56) per annum.

 

2.                                       Leased Property .  Section 2.1 of Amended Lease No. 4 is amended by deleting subsection (a) therefrom in its entirety and replacing it with the following:

3.                                       Arbitration .  Article 22 of Amended Lease No. 1 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

 

ARTICLE 22

 

ARBITRATION

 

(a)                                  Any disputes, claims or controversies between or among the parties hereto (i) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or (ii) brought by or on behalf of any shareholder of the parties hereto (which, for purposes of this Article 22 , shall mean any shareholder of record or any beneficial owner of shares of the parties hereto, or any former shareholder of record or beneficial owner of shares of the parties hereto), either on his, her or its own behalf, on behalf of the parties hereto or on behalf of any series or class of shares of the parties hereto or shareholders of the parties hereto against the parties hereto or any trustee, director, officer, manager (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor), agent or employee of the parties hereto, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, including this arbitration agreement, the declaration of trust, limited liability company agreement, partnership agreement or analogous governing instruments, as applicable, of the parties hereto, or the bylaws of the parties hereto (all of which are referred to as “ Disputes ”), or relating in any way to such a Dispute or Disputes, shall on the demand of any party to such Dispute be resolved through binding and final arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “ Rules ”) of the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ”) then in effect, except as those Rules may be modified in this Article 22 .  For the avoidance of doubt, and not as a limitation, Disputes are intended to include derivative actions against trustees, directors, officers or managers of the parties hereto and class actions by a shareholder against those individuals or entities and the parties hereto.  For the

 

2



 

avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party.

 

(b)                                  There shall be three arbitrators.  If there are only two parties to the Dispute (with, for purposes of this Article 22 , any and all parties involved in the Dispute and owned by the same ultimate parent entity treated as one party), each party shall select one arbitrator within 15 days after receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration.  Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of such parties.  If either party fails to timely select an arbitrator, the other party to the Dispute shall select the second arbitrator who shall be neutral and impartial and shall not be affiliated with or an interested person of either party. If there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, shall each select, by the vote of a majority of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be, one arbitrator. Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be.  If either all claimants or all respondents fail to timely select an arbitrator then such arbitrator (who shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) shall be appointed by the AAA.  The two arbitrators so appointed shall jointly appoint the third and presiding arbitrator (who shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) within 15 days of the appointment of the second arbitrator.  If the third arbitrator has not been appointed within the time limit specified herein, then the AAA shall provide a list of proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules, and the arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with a listing, striking and ranking procedure, with each party having a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.

 

(c)                                   The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

 

(d)                                  There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

 

(e)                                   In rendering an award or decision (the “ Award ”), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.  Any arbitration proceedings or Award rendered hereunder and the validity, effect and interpretation of this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.  The Award shall be in writing and may, but shall not be required to, briefly state the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which it is based.

 

(f)                                    Except to the extent expressly provided by Article 22 or as otherwise agreed by the parties, each party involved in a Dispute shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), and the arbitrators shall not render an award that would include shifting of any such costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or, in a derivative case or class action, award any portion of Assignor’s or Assignee’s award to the claimant or the claimant’s attorneys.  Except to the extent otherwise agreed by the parties, each party (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, respectively) shall bear the costs and expenses of its (or their) selected arbitrator and the parties (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand) shall equally bear the costs and expenses of the third appointed arbitrator.

 

3



 

(g)                                   An Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims, counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

(h)                                  Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  Each party against which the Award assesses a monetary obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the 30 th  day following the date of the Award or such other date as the Award may provide.

 

(i)                                      This Article 22 is intended to benefit and be enforceable by the shareholders, trustees, directors, officers, managers (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor), agents or employees of any party and the parties and shall be binding on the shareholders of any party and the parties, as applicable, and shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that such individuals or entities may have by contract or otherwise.

 

4.                                       Schedule 1 .  Schedule 1 to Amended Lease No. 4 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with Schedule 1 attached hereto.

 

5.                                       Exhibit A .  Exhibit A to Amended Lease No. 4 is amended by adding Exhibits A-28 through A-30 attached hereto immediately following Exhibit A-27 to Amended Lease No. 4.

 

6.                                       Ratification .  As amended hereby, Amended Lease No. 4 is hereby ratified and confirmed.

3.01.                      Priorities for Distribution of Aggregate Gross Revenues .  Aggregate Gross Revenues shall be distributed in the following order of priority:

 

2



 

(1)                                  First, to pay Aggregate Community Expenses (which shall not include the Aggregate Base Fee).

 

(2)                                  Second, to Manager to pay the Aggregate Base Fee and any interest that may have accrued pursuant to Section 3.02.

 

(3)                                  Third, to Owners in an amount equal to the Aggregate Owner Priority Return and any interest that may have accrued pursuant to Section 3.02.

(5)                                  Fifth, to Manager, in an amount equal to the Aggregate Incentive Fee.

 

(6)                                  Sixth, to Owners, in an amount equal to the Aggregate Owner Residual Payment.

 

3.02.                      Timing of Payments .  Payment of the Aggregate Community Expenses, excluding the Aggregate Base Fee, shall be made in the ordinary course of business.  The Aggregate Base Fee and accrued interest, if any, shall be paid on the first Business Day of each calendar month, in advance, based upon Manager’s then estimate of the prior month’s Aggregate Gross Revenues.  The Aggregate Owner Priority Return and accrued interest, if any, shall be paid on the first Business Day of each calendar month, in advance in approximately equal monthly installments, based upon Aggregate Invested Capital most recently reported to Manager by Owner. The Aggregate Base Fee and Aggregate Owner Priority Return shall be subject to adjustment by increasing or decreasing the payment due in the following month based upon Aggregate Gross Revenues reflected in the Aggregate Monthly Financial Statements and increases or decreases in Aggregate Invested Capital reported to Manager by Owners, as the case may be.  If any installment of the Aggregate Base Fee or the Aggregate Owner Priority Return is not paid when due, it shall accrue and bear interest at the Interest Rate. The Aggregate Incentive Fee and Aggregate Owner Residual Payment shall be paid on the last Business Day of the calendar month following the month to which such Aggregate Incentive Fee and Aggregate Owner Residual Payment relate, in arrears, and shall be based upon the Aggregate Monthly Statements.  Additional adjustments to all payments will be made on an annual basis based upon the Aggregate Monthly Statements for the full calendar year and any audits conducted pursuant to Section 6.03 of the Management Agreements.  The Aggregate Owner Priority Return and Aggregate Owner Residual Payment shall be allocated among the Owners as the Owners shall determine in their sole discretion and Manager shall have no responsibility or liability in connection therewith.

 

3.03.                      Relationship with Management Agreements .  For as long as this Agreement is in effect with respect to a Community, the provisions of Section 3.01 and 3.02 shall supersede Sections 5.01 and 5.02 of the Management Agreement then in effect with the applicable Community.

ARTICLE IV
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

Manager shall prepare and deliver the following financial statements to the Owners:

 

(a)                             not later than ten Business Days after the end of each calendar month, a consolidated balance sheet and related statement of income and expense of all of the Communities for such calendar month and for the then current calendar year to date, certified by Manager’s Controller on a monthly basis and by Manager’s Chief Financial Officer on a quarterly basis as being true and correct to the best of his/her knowledge (“Aggregate Monthly Statement”).

 

(b)                             Manager shall also prepare and deliver such other statements or reports as any Owner may, from time to time, reasonably request.

 

The financial statements delivered pursuant to this Article IV are in addition to any financial statements required to be prepared and delivered pursuant to the Management Agreements.

 

ARTICLE V
SHORTFALL; NON-ECONOMIC COMMUNITIES

 

5.01.                      Shortfall .  After December 31, 2018, if in each of three consecutive calendar years the Aggregate Owner Priority Return (together with any accrued interest) has not been paid in full (a “Priority Return Shortfall”), by notice given within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Aggregate Annual Statement for such third year, the Owners may terminate all, but not less than all, of the Management Agreements.  Prior to exercising the right to terminate, Owners shall give Manager notice and if within ten (10) days thereafter, Manager funds the Priority Return Shortfall (a “Manager Shortfall Advance”), Owners shall not exercise the right to terminate, provided Manger may not exercise its right to fund the Priority Return Shortfall more frequently than once every four (4) years.  Manager may recover any amounts paid by it as a Manager Shortfall Advance as provided in Section 3.01, provided that amounts not recovered during the four (4) calendar years following the year in which payment of a Manager Shortfall Advance was made shall be deemed waived and shall not be payable in any subsequent year.

 

5.02.                      Non-Economic Communities .  If the Gross Revenues of any Community are insufficient to pay all Community Expenses and the Base Fee of such Community in full during each of two (2) consecutive calendar years, Manager shall, upon thirty (30) days notice to the relevant Owner, be entitled to designate such Community a “Non-Economic Community.”  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Manager shall not be entitled without the Owner’s consent to designate Communities for which the Invested Capital in the aggregate would exceed twenty percent (20%) of Aggregate Invested Capital and further provided for purposes of this Section 5.02 only, Aggregate Invested Capital shall be determined without giving effect to the termination of the Management Agreement of a Non-Economic Community and without reduction for proceeds from the sale, or deemed sale, of any Non-Economic Community.  Manager may request an increase in the foregoing twenty percent (20%) threshold at any time, which Owner may accept or reject in its sole discretion.

 

4



 

Manager shall market a Community designated as a Non-Economic Community for sale and any costs incurred by the Manager in connection with such marketing activities and the sale of such Community shall be paid out of the net proceeds of such sale.  The relevant Owner and Owner shall cooperate with Manager in compiling any relevant information, preparing marketing materials and otherwise in connection with the sale of a Non-Economic Community.

 

5.03.                      Sale Process .  If a Non-Economic Community is marketed for sale in accordance with Section 5.02 and Manager receives an offer therefor which it wishes to accept on behalf of Owner, Manager shall give the relevant Owner prompt notice thereof, which notice shall include a copy of the offer and any other information reasonably requested by such Owner.  If the relevant Owner shall fail to accept or reject such offer within seven (7) Business Days after receipt of such notice and other information from Manager, such offer shall be deemed to be accepted.  If the offer is rejected by the relevant Owner and, if the Manager elects to continue marketing the Community by providing written notice to the relevant Owner within seven (7) days of such rejection and the Manager does not obtain another offer within ninety (90) days that is accepted by the relevant Owner, the Non-Economic Community shall be deemed to have been sold to the relevant Owner on the date, at the price and on the other terms contained in the offer.  If a Non-Economic Community is sold to a third party or deemed to have been sold to the relevant Owner pursuant to such offer, effective as of the date of sale or deemed sale: (i) the Management Agreement shall terminate with respect to such Non-Economic Community; (ii) the Aggregate Invested Capital shall be reduced by an amount equal to the net proceeds of sale after reduction for the costs and expenses of the relevant Owner and/or Manager (or, in the case of a deemed sale, the net proceeds of sale determined by reference to such offer, after reduction for any amounts actually expended and any amounts which would reasonably have been expected to have been expended if the sale had been consummated, by the relevant Owner and/or Manager).  If the reduction of Aggregate Invested Capital is less than the Invested Capital of the Non-Economic Community sold or deemed sold, the difference shall be proportionately reallocated to the Invested Capital of the remaining Communities.

 

ARTICLE VI
ACCOUNTS

 

All Working Capital and all Gross Revenues of each of the Communities may be pooled and deposited in one or more bank accounts in the name(s) of the Owners designated by Manager, which accounts may, except as required by any Mortgage and related loan documentation or applicable law, be commingled accounts containing other funds owned by or managed by Manager.  Manager shall be authorized to access the accounts without the approval of Owners, subject to any limitation on the maximum amount of any check, if any, established between Manager and Owners as part of the Annual Operating Budgets.  One or more Owners shall be a signatory on all accounts maintained with respect to the Community, and Owners shall have the right to require that one or more Owner’s signature be required on all checks/withdrawals after the occurrence of an Event of Default by Manager under this Agreement.  Owners shall provide such instructions to the applicable bank(s) as are necessary to permit Manager to implement the Manager’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  The failure of any Owner to provide such instructions shall relieve Manager of its obligations hereunder until such time as such failure is cured.

ARTICLE VII
ADDITION AND REMOVAL OF COMMUNITIES

 

7.01.                      Addition of Communities .  At any time and from time to time, Manager and any Owner or any Affiliate of Owners (an “Additional Owner”) which enters into a management agreement with Manager (an “Additional Management Agreement”) for the operation of an additional independent living community (an “Additional Community”), the Additional Owner may become a party to this Agreement by signing an accession agreement confirming the applicability of this Agreement to such Additional Community.  If an Additional Community is made subject to this Agreement other than on the first day of a calendar month, the parties shall include such prorated amounts of the Gross Revenues and Community Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) applicable to the Additional Community for such calendar month, as mutually agreed in their reasonable judgment, in the calculation of Aggregate Gross Revenues and Aggregate Community Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) for the calendar month in which the Additional Community became subject to this Agreement and shall make any other prorations, adjustments, allocations and changes required.  Additionally, any amounts held as Working Capital or for Capital Replacements at the Additional Community, if any, shall be held by Manager under this Agreement.

 

7.02.                      Removal of Communities .  From and after the date of termination of any Management Agreement, the Community managed thereunder shall no longer be subject to this Agreement.  If the termination occurs on a day other than the last day of a calendar month, the parties shall exclude such prorated amounts of the Gross Revenues and Community Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) applicable to such Community for such calendar month, as mutually agreed in their reasonable judgment, in the calculation of Aggregate Gross Revenues and Aggregate Community Expenses (and other amounts as may be necessary) for the calendar month in which the termination occurred.  Additionally, the relevant Owner and Manager, both acting reasonably, shall mutually agree to the portion of the Working Capital and Aggregate Gross Revenues and any amounts being held by Manager for Capital Replacements allocable to the Community being removed from this Agreement and the amount of the Working Capital, Aggregate Gross Revenues and amounts being held by Manager for Capital Replacements, if any, so allocated shall be remitted to the relevant Owner and the relevant Owner and Manager shall make any other prorations, adjustments, allocations and changes required.

SUBLEASE AGREEMENT

 

THIS SUBLEASE AGREEMENT (this “ Sublease ”) is made and entered into as of August 31, 2012 by and between SNH YONKERS TENANT INC. , a Maryland corporation, as sublandlord (“ Sublandlord ”), and D&R YONKERS LLC , a Delaware limited liability company, as subtenant (“ Subtenant ”).

 

W I T N E S S E T H :

 

WHEREAS, SNH Yonkers Properties Trust, as landlord (“ Landlord ”), and Sublandlord, as tenant, are parties to that certain Lease Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “ Lease ”), pursuant to which Landlord leases to Sublandlord, and Sublandlord leases from Landlord, that certain building having an address at 537 Riverdale Avenue, Yonkers, New York (the “ Building ”), which Building is located on the land as more particularly described on Exhibit A attached hereto;

 

WHEREAS , Sublandlord wishes to sublease to Subtenant and Subtenant wishes to sublease from Sublandlord the rentable areas on floors two (2) through and including floor five (5) of the Building (the “ Subleased Premises ”) on the terms and conditions hereinafter provided; and

 

WHEREAS , simultaneously herewith, Subtenant and FVE Managers, Inc. (“ Manager ”) are entering into a Management Agreement (as the same may be amended from time to time, the “ Management Agreement ”) pursuant to which Subtenant appoints Manager as manager of the Adult Home and Enriched Housing Programs (as such terms are defined in the New York Social Services Law) operated at the Subleased Premises and Manager accepts such appointment, and as manager of the Assisted Living, Enhanced Assisted Living and Special Needs Assisted Living Residences (as such terms are defined in the New York Public Health Law) to be operated at the Subleased Premises upon receipt of all necessary approvals and Manager accepts such appointment;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the mutual receipt and legal sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Sublandlord and Subtenant hereby agree as follows:

 

1.             Capitalized Terms .  Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Sublease shall have the meanings given such terms in the Lease.

 

2.             Sublease .  Upon and subject to the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, Sublandlord hereby subleases the Subleased Premises to Subtenant, and Subtenant hereby subleases the Subleased Premises from Sublandlord.  Subtenant shall also have the right to use the common areas of the Building that service the Subleased Premises on a non-exclusive basis.

 

3.             Term .  The initial term of this Agreement shall commence on the date hereof and shall expire on December 31, 2031, unless sooner terminated as provided in this Sublease, which initial term will be automatically extended for two (2) consecutive periods of fifteen (15) years

 



 

each, unless notice of non-renewal is given by Subtenant at least twenty-four (24) months prior to the end of the then-current term.  All of the terms, covenants and provisions of this Sublease applicable immediately prior to the expiration of the then current term shall apply to each extended term, except that Subtenant shall have no further right to extend the term of this Sublease beyond the expiration of the extended terms.

 

4.             Rent .  Subtenant shall pay to Sublandlord, in lawful money of the United States of America which shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, without offset, abatement, demand or deduction, fixed annual rent in the amount of Two Million Eight Hundred Thirty-Five Thousand and 00/100s Dollars ($2,835,000.00) (“ Sublease Rent ”), in equal monthly installments in advance on the first Business Day of each calendar month during the Sublease Term.  Commencing on the first (1 st ) anniversary of the date of this Sublease, and on each successive anniversary of such date thereafter, the Sublease Rent shall be increased to an annual amount equal to the greater of (a) the then-fair market rent for the Subleased Premises as reasonably agreed upon by Sublandlord and Subtenant and (b) one hundred three percent (103%) of the Sublease Rent in effect immediately prior to the applicable anniversary.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sublandlord acknowledges that its right to receive Sublease Rent during any month is subject and subordinate to the availability of sufficient revenues and receipts collected by Subtenant or Manager in respect of the Subleased Premises from whatever source and of whatever character during such period (the “ Subleased Premises Revenues ”) for such month to permit the payment of Sublease Rent.  If there are insufficient Subleased Premises Revenues to pay Sublease Rent, Sublandlord will advance (without interest) the amount of the shortfall, and all such advanced amounts shall be due and payable and shall be repaid in the next succeeding month(s) in which there is excess Subleased Premises Revenue after the payment of Sublease Rent for such month until all such advanced amounts are paid in full.  Upon any termination of this Sublease for any reason, Subtenant shall be released from any obligation to pay such advanced amounts.

 

5.             Use .  Subtenant shall use and occupy the Subleased Premises solely for purposes of operating Adult Home and Enriched Housing Programs at the Subleased Premises as approved by the New York State Department of Health (“DOH”) as of August 24, 2012 and for the purposes of operating Assisted Living, Enhanced Assisted Living and Special Needs Assisted Living Residences as described in Subtenant’s applications to establish such residences at the Subleased Premises upon receipt of all necessary approvals from DOH.

 

6.             Subtenant’s Authority .  Sublandlord and Subtenant agree that, from and after the approval by DOH, notwithstanding any language to the contrary in this Sublease, Subtenant shall retain full operational and fiscal authority for the operation of the Adult Home and Enriched Housing Programs operated at the Subleased Premises and the Assisted Living, Enhanced Assisted Living and Special Needs Assisted Living Residences to be operated at the Subleased Premises; and Sublandlord shall take no action that will impair Subtenant’s access to Subleased Premises Revenues or any bank account or accounts established by Manager in the name of and on behalf of Subtenant as the vehicle for the payment of Sublease Rent.

 

7.             Sublandlord’s Obligations .  Sublandlord shall comply with all of the terms and conditions of the Lease applicable to the Subleased Premises at Sublandlord’s sole cost and expense.   In furtherance of the foregoing, Sublandlord shall pay for all real estate taxes, utilities, insurance

 

2



 

premiums, and other operating costs and expenses with respect to the Building (including, without limitation, the Subleased Premises) at Sublandlord’s sole cost and expense.  In addition, Sublandlord shall advance to Subtenant amounts equal to Working Capital (as defined in the Management Agreement) required to be advanced by Subtenant to Manager as contemplated by the Management Agreement upon request of Subtenant.

 

8.             Risk of Loss .  As between Sublandlord and Subtenant, all risk of loss related to damage to the Building or the Subleased Premises caused by casualty or Condemnation shall be borne by Sublandlord and Sublandlord shall be entitled to any insurance proceeds or condemnation award payable in connection with any such casualty or Condemnation.

 

9.             No Assignment or Subletting .  Subtenant shall not assign or sublease, directly or indirectly, the Subleased Premises without the prior consent of Sublandlord which may be withheld in Sublandlord’s sole and absolute discretion; provided , however , that the foregoing shall not be deemed to prohibit Subtenant from permitting patients or residents to occupy the Subleased Property in the ordinary course of Subtenant’s business at the Subleased Property.  Without limiting the foregoing, any transfer of any membership or other equity interests in Subtenant shall constitute an assignment requiring Sublandlord’s consent hereunder, and following any transfer of any membership or other equity interests in Subtenant without Subandlord’s consent, Sublandlord shall have the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to terminate this Sublease by notice given to Subtenant.

 

10.          Management Agreement .  Sublandlord consents to the Management Agreement; provided , however , Subtenant shall not amend or modify the Management Agreement or enter into any new management agreement with respect to the Subleased Premises without Landlord’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.  Subtenant shall not agree to any change in the Manager, to any termination of the Management Agreement, or to permit any Affiliated Person of Manager to assign or transfer its rights under the Management Agreement without the prior written approval of Sublandlord in each instance, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

ARTICLE XV
GOVERNING LAW, ARBITRATION, LIABILITY OF MANAGER AND INDEMNITY

 

Section 15.01.                    Governing Law, Etc .   This Agreement shall be interpreted, construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts between residents of New York which are to be performed entirely within New York, regardless of (i) where this Agreement is executed or delivered; or (ii) where any payment or

 

20



 

other performance required by this Agreement is made or required to be made; or (iii) where any breach of any provision of this Agreement occurs, or any cause of action otherwise accrues; or (iv) where any action or other proceeding is instituted or pending; or (v) the nationality, citizenship, domicile, principal place of business, or jurisdiction of organization or domestication of any party; or (vi) whether the laws of the forum jurisdiction otherwise would apply the laws of a jurisdiction other than New York; or (vii) any combination of the foregoing.

 

Section 15.02.                    Arbitration .

 

(a)          Any disputes, claims or controversies between the parties (i) arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or (ii) brought by or on behalf of any shareholder of any party or a direct or indirect parent of a party (which, for purposes of this Section 15.02, shall mean any shareholder of record or any beneficial owner of shares of any party, or any former shareholder of record or beneficial owner of shares of any party), either on his, her or its own behalf, on behalf of any party or on behalf of any series or class of shares of any party or shareholders of any party against any party or any member, trustee, officer, manager (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor), agent or employee of any party, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, including this arbitration provision, or the declarations of trust, limited liability company agreements or bylaws of any party hereto (all of which are referred to as “Disputes”), or relating in any way to such a Dispute or Disputes shall, on the demand of any party to such Dispute be resolved through binding and final arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in effect, except as those Rules may be modified in this Section 15.02.  For the avoidance of doubt, and not as a limitation, Disputes are intended to include derivative actions against trustees, officers or managers of any party and class actions by a shareholder against those individuals or entities and any party.  For the avoidance of doubt, a Dispute shall include a Dispute made derivatively on behalf of one party against another party. For purposes of this Article XV, the term “party” shall include any direct or indirect parent of a party.

 

(b)          There shall be three arbitrators.  If there are only two parties to the Dispute, each party shall select one arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a demand for arbitration.  Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of such parties.  If there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, shall each select, by the vote of a majority of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be, one arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after receipt of a demand for arbitration.  Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be.  If either a claimant (or all claimants) or a respondent (or all respondents) fail to timely select an arbitrator then the party (or parties) who has selected an arbitrator may request the AAA to provide a list of three proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules (each of whom shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) and the party (or parties) that failed to timely appoint an arbitrator shall have ten (10) days from the date the AAA provides such list to select one of the three arbitrators proposed by AAA.  If such party (or parties) fail to select such arbitrator by such time, the party (or parties) who have appointed the first arbitrator shall then have ten (10) days to select one of the three arbitrators proposed by AAA to be the second arbitrator; and, if he/they should fail to select such arbitrator by such time, the AAA shall

 

21



 

select, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, one of the three arbitrators it had proposed as the second arbitrator.  The two arbitrators so appointed shall jointly appoint the third and presiding arbitrator (who shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) within fifteen (15) days of the appointment of the second arbitrator.  If the third arbitrator has not been appointed within the time limit specified herein, then the AAA shall provide a list of proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules, and the arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with a listing, striking and ranking procedure, with each party having a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.

 

(c)           The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

 

(d)          There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

 

(e)           In rendering an award or decision (the “Award”), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the State of New York.  Any arbitration proceedings or Award rendered hereunder and the validity, effect and interpretation of this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.  The Award shall be in writing and may, but shall not be required to, briefly state the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which it is based.

 

(f)            Except to the extent expressly provided by this Agreement or as otherwise agreed by the parties, each party involved in a Dispute shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), and the arbitrators shall not render an award that would include shifting of any such costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or, in a derivative case or class action, award any portion of a party’s award to the claimant or the claimant’s attorneys.  Each party (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, respectively) shall bear the costs and expenses of its (or their) selected arbitrator and the parties (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand) shall equally bear the costs and expenses of the third appointed arbitrator.

 

(g)           An Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims, counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

(h)          Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  Each party against which the Award assesses a monetary obligation shall pay that obligation on or before the 30th day following the date of the Award or such other date as the Award may provide.

 

22



 

(i)              This Section 15.02 is intended to benefit and be enforceable by the shareholders, members, direct and indirect parents, trustees, directors, officers, managers (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor), agents or employees of any party and the parties and shall be binding on the shareholders of any party and the parties, as applicable, and shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that such individuals or entities may have by contract or otherwise.

 

Section 15.03.                    Consent to Jurisdiction and Forum .  This Section 15.03 is subject to, and shall not in any way limit the application of, Section 15.02; in case of any conflict between this Section 15.03 and Section 15.02, Section 15.02 shall govern.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 15.02, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in any action brought by any party hereto pursuant to this Agreement shall lie in any federal or state court located in Boston, Massachusetts.  By execution and delivery of this Agreement, each party hereto irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts for itself and in respect of its property with respect to such action. The parties irrevocably agree that venue would be proper in such court, and hereby waive any objection that such court is an improper or inconvenient forum for the resolution of such action.  The parties further agree and consent to the service of any process required by any such court by delivery of a copy thereof in accordance with Section 17.01 and that any such delivery shall constitute valid and lawful service of process against it, without necessity for service by any other means provided by statute or rule of court.

 

Section 15.04.                    Standard of Care .  Manager shall discharge its duties in good faith, and agrees to exercise, with respect to all services provided by Manager under this Agreement, a standard of care, skill, prudence and diligence under the circumstances then existing as is consistent with the prevailing practices of institutional property managers that manage properties comparable to the Licensed Facility in the same market and in no event with less care, skill, prudence or diligence as Manager would customarily utilize in the conduct of its business, and as is necessary to comply with all Legal Requirements.

 

Section 15.05.                    Indemnity .  In any action, proceeding or claim brought or asserted by a third party, Manager will defend, indemnify and hold Licensee (and any of its Affiliates, their respective directors, trustees, officers, shareholders, employees and agents) harmless from and against any claims, losses, expenses, costs, suits, actions, proceedings, demands or liabilities that are asserted against, or sustained or incurred by them because of Manager’s breach of any material term of this Agreement, or arising from Manager’s failure to act or not act in accordance with Licensee’s reasonable instructions or gross negligence, fraud, or willful misconduct, except to the extent caused by Licensee’s breach of any material term of this Agreement, gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct.   Licensee will defend, indemnify, and hold Manager (and any of its Affiliates, their respective directors, trustees, officers, shareholders, employees and agents) harmless, from and against any and all claims, expenses, costs, suits, actions, proceedings, demands, or liabilities that are asserted against, or sustained or incurred by them in connection with the performance of Manager’s duties under this Agreement or otherwise while acting within the scope of the agency established by the parties to this Agreement and in accordance with Section 15.04, or in the case of an action, proceeding or claim brought or asserted by a third party against any of them as a result of Licensee’s breach of any material term

 

23



 

of this Agreement, violation of Legal Requirements, instructions to Manager to act or not act with respect to the relevant matter or gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct, except to the extent caused by Manager’s breach of any material term of this Agreement, failure to act or not act in accordance with Licensee’s reasonable instructions, gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct.   The scope of the foregoing indemnities includes any and all costs and expenses properly incurred in connection with any proceedings to defend any indemnified claim, or to enforce the indemnity, or both.  Recovery upon an indemnity contained in this Agreement shall be reduced dollar-for-dollar by any applicable insurance collected by the indemnified party with respect to the claims covered by such indemnity.  The parties obligations under this Section shall survive the Termination.

 

Section 15.06.                    Limitation of Liability .  To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, no shareholder, member, officer, director, trustee, employee or agent of any party to this Agreement (and of any Affiliate of such party that is not a party to this Agreement) shall have any personal liability with respect to the liabilities or obligations of such party under this Agreement or any document executed by such party pursuant to this Agreement.

 

Section 15.07.                    Licensee’s Independent Authority of Settlements .  Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, Licensee shall retain independent approval of settlements of administrative proceedings or litigation to which it is a party.

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

 

THIS INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered August 31, 2012 (the “Effective Date”), by and between Senior Housing Properties Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust (“SNH”), and David J. Hegarty (“Indemnitee”).

 

WHEREAS Indemnitee has agreed to be member, a director and an officer of D&R Yonkers LLC (the “Company”) which is of direct, material benefit to SNH; and

 

WHEREAS, as an inducement to Indemnitee to be a member, director and officer of the Company, SNH has agreed to indemnify Indemnitee against any costs, losses and damages incurred by Indemnitee by reason of his being a member, director or officer of the Company, including in connection with any claims, suits or proceedings, and to advance expenses incurred by Indemnitee;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as follows:

 

Section 1.  Indemnification .  SNH shall indemnify Indemnitee as provided in this Agreement and otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted by law, against all costs, losses and expenses sustained or incurred by Indemnitee as member, director or officer of the Company, including, but not limited to, in connection with any threatened or pending action, suit, arbitration, investigation or any other proceeding, whether civil, criminal or administrative, including on appeal, to which Indemnitee is a party or is threatened to be made a party or a witness by reason of his being a member, director or officer of the Company and/or in connection with any costs, losses or expenses under the sublease between the Company and SNH Yonkers Tenant Inc. and/or the management agreement between the Company and FVE Managers, Inc., each dated August 31, 2012, and as amended.

 

Section 2.  Advance of Expenses .  SNH shall advance all expenses incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any matter which may give rise to indemnification hereunder within ten days after the receipt by SNH of a statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances from time to time, whether prior to or after final disposition of such matter.  To the extent that expenses advanced to Indemnitee do not relate to a specific claim, issue or matter, such expenses shall be allocated on a reasonable and proportionate basis.

 

Section 3.  Defense .  SNH shall have the right to defend Indemnitee in any action, suit, arbitration, investigation or any other proceeding which may give rise to indemnification hereunder.  SNH shall not, without the prior written consent of Indemnitee, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, consent to the entry of any judgment against Indemnitee or enter into any settlement or compromise which (i) includes an admission of fault of Indemnitee or (ii) does not include, as an unconditional term thereof, the full release of Indemnitee from all liability in respect thereof, which release shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee.

 



 

Section 4.  Non-Exclusivity; Survival of Rights .

 

(a)           The rights of indemnification and advance of expenses as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Limited Liability Company Operating Agreement or Bylaws of the Company, or otherwise.  No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee as a member, director or officer of the Company prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal.

 

(b)           In the event of any payment under this Agreement, SNH shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable SNH to bring suit to enforce such rights.

 

(c)           SNH shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if and to the extent that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.

 

Section 5.  Severability .  If any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (a) the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and (b) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent manifested thereby.

 

Section 6.  Counterparts .  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.  One such counterpart signed by the party against whom enforceability is sought shall be sufficient to evidence the existence of this Agreement.

Section 10.  Governing Law .  The parties agree that this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Maryland, without regard to its conflicts of laws rules.

 

Section 11.  Arbitration .

 

(a)           Any disputes, claims or controversies between the parties arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or, in the case of SNH, brought by or on behalf of any shareholder of SNH (which for purposes of this Section 11, shall mean any shareholder of record or any beneficial owner of shares of SNH, or any former shareholder of record or beneficial owner of shares), either on his, her or its own behalf, on behalf of SNH or on behalf of any series of shares of SNH or shareholders of SNH against the either party or, in the case of SNH, against any member, trustee, officer, manager (including Reit Management Research LLC or its successor), agent or employee of SNH, including disputes, claims or controversies relating to the meaning, interpretation, effect, validity, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, including this arbitration provision, or the declaration of trust, or bylaws of SNH (all of which are referred to as “Disputes”), or relating in any way to such a Dispute or Disputes shall, on the demand of any party to such Dispute be resolved through binding and final arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in effect, except as those Rules may be modified in this Section 11.  For the avoidance of doubt, and not as a limitation, Disputes are intended to include derivative actions against trustees, officers or managers of SNH and class actions by a shareholder against those individuals.

 

(b)           There shall be three (3) arbitrators.  If there are only two (2) parties to the Dispute, each party shall select one arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after receipt by respondent of a copy of the demand for arbitration.  Such arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of such parties.  If either party fails to timely select an arbitrator, the other party to the Dispute shall select the second arbitrator who shall be neutral and impartial and shall not be affiliated with or an interested person of either party.  If there are more than two (2) parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, shall each select, by the vote of a majority of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be, one arbitrator.  Such

 

3



 

arbitrators may be affiliated or interested persons of the claimants or the respondents, as the case may be.  If either all claimants or all respondents fail to timely select an arbitrator then such arbitrator (who shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) shall be appointed by the AAA.  The two (2) arbitrators so appointed shall jointly appoint the third and presiding arbitrator (who shall be neutral, impartial and unaffiliated with any party) within fifteen (15) days of the appointment of the second arbitrator.  If the third arbitrator has not been appointed within the time limit specified herein, then the AAA shall provide a list of proposed arbitrators in accordance with the Rules, and the arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with a listing, striking and ranking procedure, with each party having a limited number of strikes, excluding strikes for cause.

 

(c)           The place of arbitration shall be Boston, Massachusetts unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

 

(d)           There shall be only limited documentary discovery of documents directly related to the issues in dispute, as may be ordered by the arbitrators.

 

(e)           In rendering an award or decision (the “Award”), the arbitrators shall be required to follow the laws of the State of Maryland.  Any arbitration proceedings or Award rendered hereunder and the validity, effect and interpretation of this arbitration agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §1 et seq.  The Award shall be in writing and may, but shall not be required to, briefly state the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which it is based.

 

(f)            Except to the extent expressly provided by this Agreement or as otherwise agreed by the parties, each party involved in a Dispute shall bear its own costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), and provided that the arbitrators shall not render an award that would include shifting of any such costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or, in a derivative case or class action, award any portion of a party’s award to the claimant or the claimant’s attorneys.  Each party (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand, respectively) shall bear the costs and expenses of its (or their) selected arbitrator and the parties (or, if there are more than two parties to the Dispute, all claimants, on the one hand, and all respondents, on the other hand) shall equally bear the costs and expenses of the third appointed arbitrator.

 

(g)           An Award shall be final and binding upon the parties thereto and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between such parties relating to the Dispute, including any claims, counterclaims, issues or accounting presented to the arbitrators.  Judgment upon the Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, no application or appeal to any court of competent jurisdiction may be made in connection with any question of law arising in the course of arbitration or with respect to any award made except for actions relating to enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate or any arbitral award issued hereunder and except for actions seeking interim or other provisional relief in aid of arbitration proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

(h)           Any monetary award shall be made and payable in U.S. dollars free of any tax, deduction or offset.  Each party against which the Award assesses a monetary obligation

 

4



 

shall pay that obligation on or before the 30th day following the date of the Award or such other date as the Award may provide.

 

(i)            This Section 11 is intended to benefit and be enforceable by the shareholders, trustees, officers, managers (including Reit Management & Research LLC or its successor) agents or employees of SNH and shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that such individuals or entities may have by contract or otherwise.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written.
