Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On May 21, 2024, affiliates of MPT Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and the operating partnership of Medical Properties Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (together, the “Company”), agreed to terms of a secured loan facility with a consortium of institutional investors that provides for a term loan in aggregate principal amount of approximately £631 million ($800 million) secured by a portfolio of 27 properties located in the United Kingdom currently leased to affiliates of Circle Health Holdings Limited, and completed the transaction on May 24, 2024.

The facility carries a fixed rate of 6.877% over its 10-year term, excluding fees and expenses, and is payable interest-only (quarterly in advance) through the maturity date. The facility is secured by first priority mortgages or similar security instruments on the relevant properties, including assignments of rents and security over accounts, and is non-recourse to the Company.

The facility is subject to customary events of default, including, without limitation, payment defaults, insolvency-related events and defaults caused by a failure to perform obligations as provided under the loan documents or by breach of representations and warranties. The loan documents also contain customary financial and leasing covenants, cash management and reserve requirements, requirements regarding the management and maintenance of the properties and maintenance of insurance on the properties, transfer restrictions and limitations on the incurrence of debt and granting of liens. If an event of default shall occur and be continuing under the facility, the principal amount outstanding, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, including a make-whole amount, may be declared immediately due and payable by the lenders.

The borrowers are required to pay certain fees and expenses to the secured lenders in connection with the facility, including an origination and arrangement fee, a servicing and management fee, a security agent fee, a cash management fee and an exit fee payable at maturity or upon prepayment. Outstanding amounts under the facility may be prepaid at any time prior to the maturity date, in whole or in part, subject to a minimum prepayment amount and the payment of a make-whole premium equal to the sum of outstanding interest payment due through the maturity date, plus an exit fee, as applicable.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the facility to repay outstanding debt, including the Company’s £105 million secured term loan maturing in December 2024, a portion of its unsecured British pound sterling term loan maturing in January 2025, and a portion of its revolving credit facility, as well as for other general corporate purposes.
