Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q
for the Quarter Ended September 30, 2014
CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements made pursuant to safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical facts may be forward-looking statements. In particular, statements pertaining to our capital resources, property performance and results of operations contain forward-looking statements. Likewise, all of our statements regarding anticipated growth in our funds from operations and anticipated market conditions, demographics and results of operations are forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of forward-looking terminology such as believes, expects, may, will, should, seeks, approximately, intends, plans, pro forma, estimates or anticipates or the negative of these words and phrases or similar words or phrases which are predictions of or indicate future events or trends and which do not relate solely to historical matters. You can also identify forward-looking statements by discussions of strategy, plans or intentions.
These forward-looking statements reflect the views of our management regarding current expectations and projections about future events and are based on currently available information. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve numerous risks and uncertainties and, thus, you should not rely on them as predictions of future events. Forward-looking statements depend on assumptions, data or methods which may be incorrect or imprecise and we may not be able to realize them. We do not guarantee that the transactions and events described will happen as described (or that they will happen at all). The following factors, among others, could cause actual results and future events to differ materially from those set forth or contemplated in the forward-looking statements:
· general economic conditions;
· adverse economic or real estate developments, either nationally or in the markets in which our properties are located;
· our failure to generate sufficient cash flows to service our outstanding indebtedness;
· fluctuations in interest rates and increased operating costs;
· the availability, terms and deployment of debt and equity capital, including our unsecured revolving credit facility;
· our ability to make distributions on our shares of beneficial interest;
· general volatility of the market price of our common shares;
· our limited operating history;
· our increased vulnerability economically due to the concentration of our investments in healthcare properties;
· our geographic concentrations in Texas causes us to be particularly exposed to downturns in this local economy or other changes in local real estate market conditions;
· changes in our business or strategy;
· our dependence upon key personnel whose continued service is not guaranteed;
· our ability to identify, hire and retain highly qualified personnel in the future;
· the degree and nature of our competition;
· changes in governmental regulations, tax rates and similar matters;
· defaults on or non-renewal of leases by tenants;
· decreased rental rates or increased vacancy rates;
· difficulties in identifying healthcare properties to acquire and complete acquisitions;
· competition for investment opportunities;
· our failure to successfully develop, integrate and operate acquired properties and operations;
· the impact of our investment in joint ventures;
· the financial condition and liquidity of, or disputes with, joint venture and development partners;
· our ability to operate as a public company;
· changes in accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (or GAAP);
· lack of or insufficient amounts of insurance;
· other factors affecting the real estate industry generally;
· our failure to qualify and maintain our qualification as a real estate investment trust (or REIT) for U.S. federal income tax purposes;
· limitations imposed on our business and our ability to satisfy complex rules in order for us to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes;
· changes in governmental regulations or interpretations thereof, such as real estate and zoning laws and increases in real property tax rates and taxation of REITs; and
· various other factors may materially adversely affect us, including the per share trading price of our common shares, such as:
· higher market interest rates;
· the number of our common shares available for future issuance or sale;
· our issuance of equity securities or the perception that such issuance might occur;
· future offerings of debt; and
· if securities analysts do not publish research or reports about our industry or if they downgrade our common shares or the healthcare-related real estate sector.
While forward-looking statements reflect our good faith beliefs, they are not guarantees of future performance. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. We disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, of new information, data or methods, future events or other changes after the date of this prospectus, except as required by applicable law. For a further discussion of these and other factors that could impact our future results, performance or transactions, see Part I, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 and Part II, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods ended during this fiscal 2014 and Part II, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of this report.
In this report, the terms we, us, our, our company, the Trust, the Company, and Physicians Realty refer to Physicians Realty Trust, a Maryland real estate investment trust, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, including Physicians Realty L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, which we refer to in this report as our Operating Partnership, and the historical business and operations of four healthcare real estate funds that we have classified for accounting purposes as our Predecessor and which we sometimes refer to as the Ziegler Funds.

Physicians Realty Trust and Predecessor
Notes to Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements
Note 1Organization and Business
Physicians Realty Trust (the Trust) was organized in the state of Maryland on April 9, 2013. As of September 30, 2014, the Trust was authorized to issue up to 500,000,000 common shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.01 per share (common shares). The Trust filed a Registration Statement on Form S-11 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) with respect to a proposed underwritten initial public offering (the IPO) and completed the IPO of its common shares and commenced operations on July 24, 2013.
The Trust contributed the net proceeds from the IPO to Physicians Realty L.P. (the Operating Partnership), a Delaware limited partnership, and is the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. The Trusts operations are conducted through the Operating Partnership and wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership. The Trust, as the general partner of the Operating Partnership, controls the Operating Partnership and consolidates the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the Operating Partnership.
The Trust is a self-managed real estate investment trust (REIT) formed primarily to acquire, selectively develop, own and manage healthcare properties that are leased to physicians, hospitals and healthcare delivery systems.
Initial Public Offering and Formation Transactions and Follow-On Public Offerings
Pursuant to the IPO, the Trust issued an aggregate of 11,753,597 common shares, including common shares issued upon exercise of the underwriters overallotment option, and received approximately $123.8 million of net proceeds. The Trust contributed the net proceeds of the IPO to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 11,753,597 common units of partnership interest (OP Units). Concurrently with the completion of the IPO, the Trust acquired, through a series of contribution transactions, the entities that own the 19 properties that comprised the Trusts initial properties from four healthcare real estate funds (the Ziegler Funds), as well as certain operating assets and liabilities, including the assumption of approximately $84.3 million of debt related to such properties. The Trust determined that the Ziegler Funds constitute the Trusts accounting predecessor (the Predecessor). The Predecessor, which is not a legal entity, is comprised of the four Ziegler Funds that owned directly or indirectly interests in entities that owned the initial 19 properties in the Trusts portfolio. The combined historical data for the Predecessor is not necessarily indicative of the Trusts future financial position or results of operations. In addition, at the completion of the IPO, the Trust entered into a shared services agreement with B.C. Ziegler & Company (Ziegler) pursuant to which Ziegler provides office space, IT support, accounting support and other services to the Trust in exchange for an annual fee.
To acquire the ownership interests in the entities that own the 19 properties included in the Trusts initial properties, and certain other operating assets and liabilities, from the Ziegler Funds, the Operating Partnership issued to the Ziegler Funds an aggregate of 2,744,000 OP Units, having an aggregate value of approximately $31.6 million based on the price to the public per share in the IPO. These formation transactions were effected concurrently with the completion of the IPO.
The net proceeds from the IPO, inclusive of shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters overallotment option, were approximately $123.8 million (after deducting the underwriting discount and expenses of the IPO and the formation transactions payable by the Trust). The Trust contributed the net proceeds of the IPO to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 11,753,597 OP Units on July 24, 2013, and upon closing of the IPO, the Trust owned a 79.6% interest in the Operating Partnership. The Operating Partnership used a portion of the IPO proceeds received from the Trust to purchase the 50% interest in the Arrowhead Commons property not owned by the Ziegler Funds for approximately $850,000, after which the Operating Partnership became the 100% owner of the property, and to pay certain expenses related to debt assumptions and the Trusts senior secured revolving credit facility. The balance of the net proceeds was subsequently invested in healthcare properties.
On December 11, 2013, the Trust completed a public offering of 9,545,000 common shares, including 1,245,000 common shares issued upon exercise of the underwriters overallotment option, resulting in net proceeds to the Trust of approximately $103.1 million. The Trust contributed the net proceeds of this offering to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 9,545,000 OP Units, and the Operating Partnership used the net proceeds of the public offering to repay borrowings under the Trusts senior secured revolving credit facility and for general corporate and working capital purposes and funding acquisitions.
On May 27, 2014, the Trust completed a public offering of 12,650,000 common shares, including 1,650,000 common shares issued upon exercise of the underwriters overallotment option, resulting in net proceeds to the Trust of approximately $149.9 million. The Trust contributed the net proceeds of this offering to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 12,650,000 OP Units, and the Operating Partnership used the net proceeds of the public offering to repay borrowings under the Trusts senior secured revolving credit facility and for general corporate and working capital purposes and funding acquisitions.
On August 19, 2014, the Trusts Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-197842), which we filed with the Commission on August 4, 2014, was declared effective by the Commission. (the Shelf Registration Statement). The Shelf Registration Statement covers the offering, from time to time, of various securities with an aggregate value of up to $900 million and the secondary offering of common shares by certain selling shareholders.
On August 19, 2014, the Trust and the Operating Oartnership entered into separate At Market Issuance Sales Agreements (the Sales Agreements) with each of MLV & Co. LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., JMP Securities LLC, and RBC Capital Markets, LLC (the Agents), pursuant to which we may issue and sell common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $150 million, from time to time, through the Agents pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement. In accordance with the Sales Agreements, we may offer and sell our common shares through any of the Agents, from time to time, by any method deemed to be an at the market offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), which includes sales made directly on the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE), or other existing trading market, or sales made to or through a market maker. With the Trusts express written consent, sales also may be made in negotiated transactions or any other method permitted by law. The common shares are registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement. During the quarterly period ended September 30, 2014, the Trust did not issue and sell any common shares pursuant to any of the Sales Agreements.
On September 12, 2014, the Trust completed a public offering of 10,925,000 common shares, including 1,425,000 common shares issued upon exercise of the underwriters overallotment option, resulting in net proceeds to the Trust of approximately $145.7 million. The Trust contributed the net proceeds of this offering to the Operating Partnership in exchange for 10,925,000 OP Units, and the Operating Partnership used the net proceeds of the public offering to repay borrowings under the Trusts senior secured revolving credit facility and for general corporate and working capital purposes and funding acquisitions.
Because the IPO and the formation transactions were completed on July 24, 2013, the Trust had no operations prior to that date. References in these notes to the consolidated and combined financial statements of Physicians Realty Trust signify the Trust for the period from July 24, 2013, the date of completion of the IPO and the formation transactions, and of the Predecessor for all prior periods.
Note 2Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited consolidated and combined financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 pursuant to the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements included in the Trusts Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the SEC on March 21, 2014.
Principles of Consolidation
Property holding entities and other subsidiaries of which the Trust owns 100% of the equity or has a controlling financial interest evidenced by ownership of a majority voting interest are consolidated. All inter-company balances and transactions are eliminated. For entities in which the Trust owns less than 100% of the equity interest, the Trust consolidates the property if it has the direct or indirect ability to control the entities activities based upon the terms of the respective entities ownership agreements. For these entities, the Trust records a non-controlling interest representing equity held by non-controlling interests.
The Trust continually evaluates all of its transactions and investments to determine if they represent variable interests in a variable interest entity (VIE). If the Trust determines that it has a variable interest in a VIE, the Trust then evaluates if it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The evaluation is a qualitative assessment as to whether the Trust has the ability to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entitys economic performance. The Trust consolidates each VIE in which it, by virtue of or transactions with the Trusts investments in the entity, is considered to be the primary beneficiary.
Noncontrolling Interests
Operating Partnership: Net income or loss is allocated to noncontrolling interests based on their respective ownership percentage of the Operating Partnership. The ownership percentage is calculated by dividing the number of OP Units held by the noncontrolling interests by the total OP Units held by the noncontrolling interests and the Trust. Issuance of additional common shares and OP Units changes the ownership interests of both the noncontrolling interests and the Trust. Such transactions and the related proceeds are treated as capital transactions.
In connection with the closing of the IPO, the Trust and the Operating Partnership completed related formation transactions pursuant to which the Operating Partnership acquired from the Ziegler Funds, the Ziegler Funds ownership interests in 19 medical office buildings located in ten states in exchange for an aggregate of 2,744,000 OP Units.
In connection with the acquisition of a surgical center hospital in the New Orleans, Louisiana metropolitan area for approximately $37.5 million, on September 30, 2013, the Operating Partnership partially funded the purchase price by issuing 954,877 OP Units valued at approximately $11.5 million on the date of issuance.
During the quarterly period ended June 30, 2014, the Operating Partnership partially funded two property acquisitions by issuing an aggregate of 243,758 OP Units valued at approximately $3.1 million on the date of issuance. The two acquisitions had a total purchase price of approximately $21.4 million.
During the quarterly period ended September 30, 2014, the Operating Partnership partially funded three property acquisitions by issuing an aggregate of 1,798,555 OP Units valued at approximately $25.5 million on the date of issuance. The three acquisitions had a total purchase price of approximately $82.2 million.
Noncontrolling interests in the Trust represent OP Units held by the Predecessors prior investors and other investors. As of September 30, 2014, the Trust held a 88.7% interest in the Operating Partnership. As the sole general partner and the majority interest holder, the Trust consolidates the financial position and results of operation of the Operating Partnership.
Holders of OP Units may not transfer their units without the Trusts prior written consent, as general partner of the Operating Partnership. Beginning on the first anniversary of the issuance of OP Units, OP Unit holders may tender their units for redemption by the Operating Partnership in exchange for cash equal to the market price of the Trusts common shares at the time of redemption or, for common shares on a one-for-one basis. Such election to pay cash or issue shares to satisfy an OP Unit holders redemption request is solely within the control of the Trust. Accordingly, the Trust presents the OP Units of the Operating Partnership held by the Predecessors prior investors and other investors as noncontrolling interests within equity in the consolidated balance sheets.
Partially Owned Properties: The Trust reflects noncontrolling interests in partially owned properties on the balance sheet for the portion of properties consolidated by the Trust that are not wholly owned by the Trust. The earnings or losses from those properties attributable to the noncontrolling interests are reflected as noncontrolling interests in partially owned properties in the consolidated and combined statements of operations.
Investment Properties
A property acquired not subject to an existing lease is treated as an asset acquisition and recorded at its purchase price, inclusive of acquisition costs, allocated between land and building based upon their relative fair values at the date of acquisition. A property acquired with an existing lease is accounted for as a business combination pursuant to the acquisition method in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations, and assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including lease intangibles, are recorded at fair value.
Investments in Unconsolidated Entities
The Trust reports investments in unconsolidated entities over whose operating and financial policies it has the ability to exercise significant influence under the equity method of accounting. Under this method of accounting, the Trusts share of the investees earnings or losses is included in its consolidated and combined statements of operations. The initial carrying value of investments in unconsolidated entities is based on the amount paid to purchase the entity interest.
Real Estate Loans Receivable
Real estate loans receivable consists of a mezzanine loan which is collateralized by an equity interest in a medical office building development. Interest income on the loan is recognized as earned based on the terms of the loan subject to evaluation of collectability risks and is included in the Trusts consolidated and combined statement of operations.
Dividends and Distributions
On September 26, 2014, the Trusts Board of Trustees declared a cash dividend of $0.225 per common share for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2014. The dividend was paid on October 30, 2014 to common shareholders and common OP Unit holders of record on October 16, 2014.
Impairment of Real Estate Property
The Trust evaluates the recoverability of the recorded amount of real estate property whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the recorded amount of an asset may not be fully recoverable. Impairment is assessed when the undiscounted expected future cash flows derived from an asset are less than its carrying amount. If the Trust determines that an asset is impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured as the amount by which the recorded amount of the asset exceeds its fair value. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the recorded amount or fair value less cost to sell. Fair value is determined using a discounted future cash flow analysis.
The Trust recognized $0.3 million of an impairment loss on a medical office building in Pickerington, OH for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. The property currently is vacant and the fair value was determined based on a previously accepted offer to purchase the property. The impairment was assessed because the propertys carrying amount exceeded its estimated fair value. The Trust did not recognize any impairment for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013.
Rental Revenue
Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis over the terms of the related leases when collectability is reasonably assured. Recognizing rental revenue on a straight-line basis for leases may result in recognizing revenue for amounts more or less than amounts currently due from tenants. Amounts recognized in excess of amounts currently due from tenants are included in other assets and were $4.8 million and $2.0 million as of
September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. If the Trust determines that collectability of straight-line rents is not reasonably assured, the Trust limits future recognition to amounts contractually owed and, where appropriate, establishes an allowance for estimated losses. Rental revenue is reduced by amortization of lease inducements and above-market lease intangibles and increased by amortization of below-market lease intangibles on certain leases. Lease inducements, above-market lease intangibles and below-market lease intangibles are amortized over the average remaining life of the lease.
Expense Recoveries
Expense recoveries relate to tenant reimbursement of real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses that are recognized as expense recovery revenue in the period the applicable expenses are incurred. The reimbursements are recorded at gross amounts, as the Trust is generally the primary obligor with respect to real estate taxes and purchasing goods and services from third-party suppliers and has discretion in selecting the supplier and bears the credit risk of tenant reimbursement.
The Trust has certain tenants with absolute net leases. Under these lease agreements, the tenant is responsible for operating and building expenses. For absolute net leases, the Trust does not recognize the operating expenses or expense recoveries.
Contingent Liability
The Trust will record a liability for contingent consideration (included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets) at fair value as of the acquisition date and reassess the fair value at the end of each reporting period, with any changes being recognized in earnings. Increases or decreases in the fair value of contingent consideration can result from changes in discount periods, discount rates and probabilities that contingencies will be met.
Management Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated and combined financial statements and the amounts of revenue and expenses reported in the period. Significant estimates are made for the valuation of investment property, valuation of financial instruments, impairment assessments and fair value assessments with respect to purchase price allocations. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current financial statement presentation, with no effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Updated, or ASU, 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant and Equipment (Topic 360) which changes the requirements for reporting discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 changes the threshold for disclosing discontinued operations and the related disclosure requirements. Pursuant to ASU 2014-08, only disposals representing a strategic shift, such as a major line of business, a major geographical area or majority equity investment, should be presented as a discontinued operation. If the disposal does qualify as a discontinued operation under ASU 2014-08, the entity will be required to provide expanded disclosures. The guidance will be applied prospectively to new disposals and new classifications of disposal groups held for sale after the effective date. ASU 2014-08 is effective for annual periods beginning on or after December 14, 2014 with early adoption permitted. The Trust early adopted the provisions of the guidance in the first quarter of 2014. Such adoption has had no impact on the Trusts financial statements as no dispositions have occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which creates a new Topic Accounting Standards Codification (Topic 606). The standard is principle-based and provides a five-step model to determine when and how revenue is recognized. The core principle is that a company should recognize revenue when it transfers promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This standard is effective for interim or annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and allows for either full retrospective or modified retrospective adoption. Early adoption of this standard is not allowed. The Trust is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of Topic 606 will have on its financial statements.
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entitys Ability to Continue as a Going Concern, to address financial reporting considerations about an entitys ability to continue as a going concern. ASU 2014-15 is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016 and for interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. The Trust is currently evaluating the impact the adoption will have on its financial statements.
Note 3Acquisitions and Investments
During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Trust completed acquisitions of 38 operating healthcare properties located in 10 states for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $447.2 million as summarized below:

New Unsecured Credit Facility; Termination of Senior Secured Credit Facility:
Effective September 18, 2014, the Credit Agreement, dated as of August 29, 2013 (as amended, restated, increased, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Prior Credit Agreement), among the Operating Partnership, as borrower, the Trust, certain subsidiaries and other affiliates of the Operating Partnership, as guarantors, Regions Bank, as administrative agent, Regions Capital Markets, as sole lead arranger and sole book runner, and the lenders party thereto, and all commitments provided thereunder, were terminated. All amounts due and outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement were repaid on or prior to such date.
On September 18, 2014, the Operating Partnership, as borrower, and the Trust and certain subsidiaries and other affiliates of the Trust, as guarantors, entered into a Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement) with KeyBank National Association as administrative agent, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Regions Capital Markets and BMO Capital Markets, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, Regions Capital Markets and BMO Capital Markets, as co-syndication agents, and the lenders party thereto in connection with an unsecured revolving credit facility in the maximum principal amount of $400 million. The Credit Agreement includes a swingline loan commitment for up to 10% of the maximum principal amount and provides an accordion feature allowing the Trust to increase borrowing capacity by up to an additional $350 million, subject to customary terms and conditions, resulting in a maximum borrowing capacity of $750 million. The Credit Agreement replaced the Trusts senior secured revolving credit facility in the maximum principal amount of $200 million under the Prior Credit Agreement.
The Credit Agreement has a maturity date of September 18, 2018 and includes a one year extension option. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.50% to 2.20%. In addition, the Credit Agreement includes an unused fee equal to 0.15% or 0.25% per annum, which is determined by usage under the Credit Agreement.
The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that, among other things, require compliance with leverage and coverage ratios and maintenance of minimum tangible net worth, as well as covenants that may limit the Trusts and the Operating Partnerships ability to incur additional debt or make distributions. The Trust may, at any time, voluntarily prepay any loan under the Credit Agreement in whole or in part without premium or penalty. As of September 30, 2014, the Trust was in compliance with all financial covenants.
The Credit Agreement includes customary representations and warranties by the Operating Partnership, the Trust and each other guarantor and imposes customary covenants on the Operating Partnership, the Trust and each other guarantor. The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, and if an event of default occurs and continues, the Operating Partnership is subject to certain actions by the administrative agent, including without limitation, the acceleration of repayment of all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit loans to the Operating Partnership. Base Rate Loans, Adjusted LIBOR Rate Loans and Letters of Credit (each, as defined in the Credit Agreement) will be subject to interest rates, based upon the consolidated leverage ratio of the Trust, the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries as follows:

Note 6Stock-based Compensation
The Trust follows ASC 718 in accounting for its share-based payments. This guidance requires measurement of the cost of employee services received in exchange for stock compensation based on the grant-date fair value of the employee stock awards. This cost is recognized as compensation expense ratably over the employees requisite service period. Incremental compensation costs arising from subsequent modifications of awards after the grant date must be recognized when incurred. Share-based payments classified as liability awards are marked to fair value at each reporting period.
Certain of the Trusts employee stock awards vest only upon the achievement of performance targets. ASC 718 requires recognition of compensation cost only when achievement of performance conditions is considered probable. Consequently, the Trusts determination of the amount of stock compensation expense requires a significant level of judgment in estimating the probability of achievement of these performance targets. Additionally, the Trust must make estimates regarding employee forfeitures in determining compensation expense. Subsequent changes in actual experience are monitored and estimates are updated as information is available.
In connection with the IPO, the Trust adopted the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan which made available 600,000 restricted shares to be administered by the Compensation and Nominating Governance Committee of the Board of Trustees. On August 7, 2014, at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Physicians Realty Trust, the Trusts shareholders approved an amendment to the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan to increase the number of common shares authorized for issuance under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan by 1,850,000 common shares.
The committee has broad discretion in administering the terms of the plan. Restricted shares granted under the plan are eligible for dividends as well as the right to vote. The Trust granted to management and the Board of Trustees 250,000 restricted common shares upon completion of the IPO under the Trusts 2013 Equity Incentive Plan at a value per share of $11.50 and total value of $2.9 million with a vesting period of three years. In March 2014, an additional 84,266 restricted common shares were granted to management and the Board of Trustees. During the quarters ended June 30, 2014 and September 30, 2014, an additional 5,263 and 60,230 restricted common shares, respectively, were granted to certain Trust employees.

For all service awards, we record compensation expense for the entire award on a straight-line basis (or, if applicable, on the accelerated method) over the requisite service period. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Trust recognized non-cash share compensation of $0.6 million and $1.5 million, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense at September 30, 2014 was $3.0 million. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Trust recognized non-cash share compensation of $0.2 million. The Trusts compensation expense recorded in connection with grants of restricted stock reflects an initial estimated cumulative forfeiture rate of 0% over the requisite service period of the awards. That estimate will be revised if subsequent information indicates that the actual number of awards expected to vest is likely to differ from previous estimates.
Restricted Share Units:
In March 2014, under the Trusts 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, the Trust granted 55,680 restricted share units at target level to management, which are subject to various criteria and a three-year service period. Also, each restricted share unit contains one dividend equivalent. The recipient will accrue dividend equivalents on awarded share units equal to the cash dividend that would have been paid on the awarded share unit had the awarded share unit been an issued and outstanding common share on the record date for the dividend. The Trust recognized $0.1 million and $0.2 million of non-cash share unit compensation expense for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2014, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense at September 30, 2014 was $0.6 million.
Note 7Fair Value Measurements
Accounting standards require certain assets and liabilities be reported and/or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements and provides a framework for establishing that fair value. The framework for determining fair value is based on a hierarchy that prioritizes the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value.
In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Trust has the ability to access. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset. These Level 3 fair value measurements are based primarily on managements own estimates using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques taking into account the characteristics of the asset or liability. In instances where inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset or liability.
The derivative instruments (Note 8) consists solely of two interest rate swaps that are not traded on an exchange and are recorded at fair value based on a variety of observable inputs including contractual terms, interest rate curves, yield curves, measure of volatility, and correlations of such inputs.
The Trust measures its interest rate swaps at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair values are based on primarily Level 2 inputs described above.
The Trust also has assets that under certain conditions are subject to measurement at fair value on a non-recurring basis. The following table sets forth by level the fair value hierarchy of the Trusts asset that was accounted for on a non-recurring basis as of September 30, 2014. There were no such assets measured at fair value as of September 30, 2013.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, tenant receivables, payables, and accrued interest are reasonable estimates of fair value because of the short term maturities of these instruments. Fair values for real
estate loan receivable and mortgage notes are estimated based on rates currently prevailing for similar instruments of similar maturities and are based primarily on level 2 inputs
The following table presents the fair value of other financial instruments (in thousands). The swaps are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Note 8Derivative Financial Instruments
The Trust is exposed to certain risks in the normal course of its business operations. One risk relating to the variability of interest on variable rate debt is managed through the use of derivatives. All derivative financial instruments are reported in the balance sheet at fair value. The Trust has elected not to apply hedge accounting to its derivative financial instrument.
Generally, the Trust enters into swap relationships such that changes in the fair value or cash flows of items and transactions being hedged are expected to be offset by corresponding changes in the values of the derivatives.
The Trust holds two swaps to pay fixed/receive variable interest rates with a total notional amount of $12.6 million and $7.9 million as of September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Gains recognized on interest rate swaps of $0.07 million and $0.1 million were included in interest income on real estate loans and other in the consolidated and combined statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively. Gains recognized on the interest rate swap of $0.02 million and $0.2 million were included in interest income on real estate loans and other in the consolidated and combined statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively.

There were 202,446 potentially dilutive shares outstanding related to the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014. However, the shares were excluded from the computation of diluted shares as their impact would have been anti-dilutive. As a result, the number of outstanding shares was the same for basic and diluted earnings per share.
Note 12Related Party Transactions
The Trust has entered into a shared services agreement with Ziegler pursuant to which Ziegler provides office space, IT support, accounting support and other services to the Trust in exchange for an annual fee. The shared service fee was $0.1 million and $0.1 million and $0.4 million and $0.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and is recorded in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statement of operations.
Ziegler charged the Predecessor an annual management fee equal to 2 percent of the total capital commitments. Total management fees charged to the Predecessor were $0.2 million and $0.5 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. The Trust did not incur a management fee for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.
The Operating Partnership and the Trust entered into the First Amendment to Shared Services Agreement, dated July 31, 2014 (the First Amendment), with Ziegler, which amended certain terms of the shared services agreement. Among other things, the First Amendment reduced the shared services to be provided by Ziegler, the term of the shared services agreement, and the monthly fee to be paid by the Trust for the remainder of the term. In consideration of these changes, the Trust was obligated to make a one-time payment to Ziegler in the amount of $1,800,000 (the Amendment Payment), which may be paid in cash or in unrestricted common shares of the Trust as determined by the Trust in its sole discretion. On August 19, 2014, the Shelf Registration Statement was declared effective by the Commission and the Trust made the Amendment Payment by issuing 124,913 common shares to Ziegler. The common shares are registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, and are being offered by the Trust pursuant to a prospectus dated August 19, 2014, as supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated August 19, 2014, filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act. The $1,800,000 one-time payment in unrestricted shares is included in general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Note 13 Subsequent Events
Pursuant to that certain First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Operating Partnership, dated July 24, 2013, among the Trust and the limited partners set forth therein (the partnership agreement), limited partners, other than the Trust, have redemption rights, to cause the Operating Partnership to redeem their OP Units in exchange for cash or, at the Trusts option, for common shares on a one-for-one basis, generally commencing one year from the date of issuance of such OP units.

Overview
We are a self-managed healthcare real estate company organized in April 2013 to acquire, selectively develop, own and manage healthcare properties that are leased to physicians, hospitals and healthcare delivery systems. We invest in real estate that is integral to providing high quality healthcare services. Our properties are typically located on a campus with a hospital or other healthcare facilities or strategically located and affiliated with a hospital or other healthcare facilities. We believe the impact of government programs and continuing trends in the healthcare industry create attractive opportunities for us to invest in healthcare related real estate. Our management team has significant public healthcare REIT experience and has long established relationships with physicians, hospitals and healthcare delivery system decision makers that we believe will provide quality investment and growth opportunities. Our principal investments include medical office buildings, outpatient treatment facilities, specialty surgical hospitals, and long-term acute care hospitals, as well as other real estate integral to health care providers. We seek to invest in stabilized medical facility assets with initial cash yields of 7% to 10%. We seek to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns for our shareholders through a combination of stable and increasing dividends and potential long-term appreciation in the value of our properties and our common shares. We elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with our short taxable year ended December 31, 2013.
As of September 30, 2014, our portfolio consisted of 64 properties located in 17 states with approximately 2,524,950 net leasable square feet, which were approximately 95.4% leased with a weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 9.9 years and approximately 60.0% of the net leasable square footage of our portfolio was affiliated with a healthcare delivery system and approximately 50.3% of the net leasable square footage of our properties is located within approximately 1/4 mile of a hospital campus. We receive a cash rental stream from these healthcare providers under our leases.
Approximately 91.0% of the annualized base rent payments from our properties as of September 30, 2014 are from triple net leases, pursuant to which the tenants are responsible for all operating expenses relating to the property, including but not limited to real estate taxes, utilities, property insurance, routine maintenance and repairs, and property management. This structure helps insulate us from increases in certain operating expenses and provides more predictable cash flow. We seek to structure our triple net leases to generate attractive returns on a long-term basis. Our leases typically have initial terms of five to 15 years and include annual rent escalators of approximately 2%. Our operating results depend significantly upon the ability of our tenants to make required rental payments. We believe that our portfolio of medical office buildings and other healthcare facilities will enable us to generate stable cash flows over time because of the diversity of our tenants, staggered lease expiration schedule, long-term leases, and low historical occurrence of tenants defaulting under their leases. As of September 30, 2014, leases representing 0.4%, 1.2% and 3.4% of leasable square feet in our portfolio will expire in 2014, 2015 and 2016, respectively.
On September 18, 2014, the Operating Partnership, as borrower, and we and certain of our subsidiaries and other affiliates, as guarantors, entered into a Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement) with KeyBank National Association as administrative agent, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Regions Capital Markets and BMO Capital Markets, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, Regions Capital Markets and BMO Capital Markets, as co-syndication agents, and the lenders party thereto in connection with an unsecured revolving credit facility in the maximum principal amount of $400 million. The Credit Agreement includes a swingline loan commitment for up to 10% of the maximum principal amount and provides an accordion feature allowing the Company to increase borrowing capacity by up to an additional $350 million, subject to customary terms and conditions, resulting in a maximum borrowing capacity of $750 million.
Effective September 18, 2014, the Credit Agreement, dated as of August 29, 2013 (as amended, restated, increased, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Prior Credit Agreement), among the Operating Partnership, as borrower, us, certain subsidiaries and other affiliates of the Operating Partnership, as guarantors, Regions Bank, as administrative agent, Regions Capital Markets, as sole lead arranger and sole book runner, and the lenders party thereto, and all commitments provided thereunder, were terminated. All amounts due and outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement were repaid on or prior to such date. The Credit Agreement replaces our existing senior secured revolving credit facility in the maximum principal amount of $200 million under the Prior Credit Agreement.
As of September 30, 2014, we had approximately $83.4 million of mortgage indebtedness outstanding secured by first mortgages on certain of our properties and $70.0 million outstanding borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility.
We completed our IPO in July 2013, pursuant to which we issued an aggregate of 11,753,597 common shares, including shares issued upon exercise of the underwriters overallotment option, and received approximately $123.8 million of net proceeds. We contributed the net proceeds of the IPO to our Operating Partnership in exchange for 11,753,597 OP Units. Simultaneously with the closing of our IPO, we completed a series of related formation transactions pursuant to which we acquired 19 medical office buildings located in ten states with approximately 524,048 net leasable square feet in exchange for 2,744,000 OP Units, and the assumption of approximately $84.3 million of debt related to such properties. We used the net proceeds of the IPO to repay approximately $36.9 million of such debt, to purchase the 50% interest in the Arrowhead Common property not owned by the Ziegler Funds for approximately $850,000, after which we became the 100% owner of that property, and to pay certain expenses related to the assumption of debt and our senior secured revolving credit facility. In addition, at the completion of the IPO, we entered into a shared services agreement with Ziegler pursuant to which Ziegler provides office space, IT support, accounting support and other services to us in exchange for an annual fee.
Following completion of our IPO and related formation transactions through December 31, 2013, we completed the acquisitions of eight healthcare properties located in six states containing an aggregate of 377,295 net leasable square feet for an aggregate of approximately $136.4 million using proceeds from the IPO, borrowings under our senior secured revolving credit facility and issuance of OP units. One of the eight healthcare property acquisitions was the Crescent City Surgical Centre in New Orleans, Louisiana, which was acquired in September 2013 for approximately $37.5 million. As partial payment of the purchase price for the property, we issued an aggregate of 954,877 OP Units to the sellers of that property valued at approximately $11.5 million (based on the average three-day closing price of our common shares on the NYSE prior to closing). Also, during 2013, we acquired approximately 40% and 35% of the joint venture interests we did not own with respect to two of our existing properties, which resulted in our 100% ownership of those properties.
On December 11, 2013, we completed a public offering of 9,545,000 common shares of beneficial interest, including 1,245,000 shares issued upon exercise of the underwriters overallotment option, resulting in net proceeds to us of approximately $103.1 million. We contributed the net proceeds of this offering to our Operating Partnership in exchange for 9,545,000 OP Units, and our Operating Partnership used the net proceeds of the public offering to repay borrowings under our senior secured revolving credit facility and for general corporate and working capital purposes and funding acquisitions.
During the quarterly period ended March 31, 2014, we completed seven acquisitions of 13 healthcare properties located in five states containing an aggregate of 550,670 net leasable square feet for an aggregate of approximately $147.4 million using proceeds from our December 2013 public offering, borrowings under our senior secured revolving credit facility and mortgage financing on existing properties. Also, we completed the acquisition of a 40% ownership interest in the entity that owns the land under Crescent City Surgical Centre for $1.3 million on February 21, 2014. Such land is leased to us pursuant to a long-term ground lease.
On May 27, 2014, we completed a public offering of 12,650,000 common shares of beneficial interest, including 1,650,000 shares issued upon exercise of the underwriters overallotment option, resulting in net proceeds to us of approximately $149.9 million. We contributed the net proceeds of this offering to our Operating Partnership in exchange for 12,650,000 OP Units, and our Operating Partnership used the net proceeds of the public offering to repay borrowings under our senior secured revolving credit facility and for general corporate and working capital purposes and funding acquisitions.
During the quarterly period ended June 30, 2014, we completed eight acquisitions of nine healthcare properties located in five states containing an aggregate of 279,056 net leasable square feet for an aggregate of approximately $73.6 million using proceeds from our December 2013 and May 2014 public offerings, borrowings under our senior secured revolving credit facility and mortgage financing on existing properties. The Operating Partnership partially funded the purchase price of two of these acquisitions by issuing a total of 243,758 OP Units valued at approximately $3.2 million on the date of issuance.
The Operating Partnership and we entered into the First Amendment to Shared Services Agreement, dated July 31, 2014 (the First Amendment), with Ziegler, which amended certain terms of our shared services agreement with Ziegler. Among other things, the First Amendment reduced the shared services to be provided by Ziegler, the term of the shared services agreement, and the monthly fee to be paid by the Trust for the remainder of the term. In consideration of these changes, we were obligated to make a one-time payment to Ziegler in the amount of $1,800,000 (the Amendment Payment), which may be paid in cash or in unrestricted common shares of the Trust as determined by the Trust in its sole discretion.
Our Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-197842), which we filed with the Commission on August 4, 2014, was declared effective by the Commission on August 19, 2014 (the Shelf Registration Statement). The Shelf Registration Statement covers the offering, from time to time, of various securities with an aggregate value of up to $900 million and the secondary offering of common shares by certain selling shareholders.
On August 19, 2014, we made the Amendment Payment by issuing 124,913 common shares to Ziegler. The common shares are registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, and were offered by us pursuant to a prospectus dated August 19, 2014, as supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated August 19, 2014, filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act.
On August 19, 2014, we and the Operating Partnership entered into separate At Market Issuance Sales Agreements (the Sales Agreements) with each of MLV & Co. LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., JMP Securities LLC, and RBC Capital Markets, LLC (the Agents), pursuant to which we may issue and sell common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $150 million, from time to time, through the Agents pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement. In accordance with the Sales Agreements, we may offer and sell our common shares through any of the Agents, from time to time, by any method deemed to be an at the market offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, which includes sales made directly on the NYSE, or other existing trading market, or sales made to or through a market maker. With our express written consent, sales also may be made in negotiated transactions or any other method permitted by law. The common shares are registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, and are being offered pursuant to a prospectus dated August 19, 2014, as supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated August 19, 2014, filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act. During the quarterly period ended September 30, 2014, we did not issue and sell any common shares pursuant to any of the Sales Agreements.
On September 12, 2014, we completed a public offering of 10,925,000 common shares of beneficial interest, including 1,425,000 shares issued upon exercise of the underwriters overallotment option, resulting in net proceeds to us of approximately $145.7 million. We contributed the net proceeds of this offering to our Operating Partnership in exchange for 10,925,000 OP Units, and our Operating Partnership used the net proceeds of the public offering to repay borrowings under our senior secured revolving credit facility and for general corporate and working capital purposes and funding acquisitions.
During the quarterly period ended September 30, 2014, we completed 11 acquisitions of 16 healthcare properties located in six states containing an aggregate of 795,139 net leasable square feet for an aggregate of approximately $226.2 million as summarized below using proceeds from our May 2014 and September 2014 public offerings, borrowings under our former senior secured revolving credit facility and borrowings under our new unsecured revolving credit facility.

(2) The Operating Partnership partially funded the purchase price of these acquisitions by issuing a total of 1,798,555 OP Units valued at approximately $25.5 million in the aggregate on the date of issuance.
We have grown our portfolio of gross real estate investments from approximately $124 million at the time of our IPO in July 2013 to $713.0 million as of September 30, 2014. We expect our portfolio to grow to between $750 million to $800 million in gross real estate investments by the end of this fiscal year.
We did not conduct business operations prior to completion of our IPO on July 24, 2013, therefore, the financial information herein for periods prior to July 24, 2013 reflects the operations of the four healthcare real estate funds managed by Ziegler, which we refer to as the Ziegler Funds or the Predecessor, from whom we acquired the equity interests in the 19 properties that constituted our initial properties upon completion of our IPO and formation transactions. We determined the Ziegler Funds to be our accounting predecessor. The financial information herein since July 24, 2013 reflect our operations since completion of the IPO and formation transactions.
We are a Maryland real estate investment trust and elected to be taxed as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes beginning with our short taxable year ended December 31, 2013. We conduct our business through an UPREIT structure in which our properties are owned by our Operating Partnership directly or through limited partnerships, limited liability companies or other subsidiaries. We are the sole general partner of our Operating Partnership and, as of September 30, 2014, own approximately 88.7% of the partnership interests in our Operating Partnership.
Property Acquisitions Subsequent to September 30, 2014
On October 29, 2014 the Company closed on the purchase of five medical office buildings (the Facilities) located in the greater Harrisburg, Pennsylvania area for a purchase price of $23.1 million. The Facilities have approximately 117,765 square feet and are 97% occupied. Pinnacle Health System (Pinnacle) is the largest tenant occupying approximately 67% of the Facilities. Pinnacle is one of the premier healthcare systems in central Pennsylvania with the leading market share based on inpatient discharges in Harrisburg. Pinnacle provides a wide array of services, including diagnostic, therapeutic, inpatient, outpatient, cardiovascular and cardiothoracic surgery, orthopedics, and neurosurgery.
Other Recent Developments
Pursuant to that certain First Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership of the Operating Partnership, dated July 24, 2013, among us and the limited partners set forth therein (the partnership agreement), limited partners, other than us, have redemption rights, to cause the Operating Partnership to redeem their OP Units in exchange for cash or, at our option, for common shares on a one-for-one basis, generally commencing one year from the date of issuance of such OP units. Pursuant to the terms of the partnership agreement, certain limited partners, including each of the Ziegler Funds, exercised their respective redemption rights and in connection therewith, we purchased on October 1, 2014 an aggregate of 545,750 OP Units in exchange for an aggregate of approximately $7.5 million in cash and we issued 2,005,101 common shares to purchase 2,005,101 OP Units. The common shares issued were issued (a) in private placements in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and (b) to accredited investors within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The resale of the common shares by the then selling shareholders and former limited partners has been registered by us under the Securities Act pursuant to our Shelf Registration Statement.
Upon the effectiveness of the above transactions, the Trust held a 93.7% interest in the Operating Partnership as of October 1, 2014.
We expect to join the MSCI US REIT Index at the close of business on November 25, 2014.
Components of Our Revenues, Expenses and Cash Flow
The financial information of our Predecessor, the Ziegler Funds, prior to completion of the IPO, reflects a different structure than our operations following the inception of operations upon completion of our IPO and as a result, the results of operations of the Predecessor and our results since our inception of operations may not be comparable. While the financial presentation of revenues pursuant to the leases at the properties in our initial portfolio and certain expenses, such as depreciation and amortization, are substantially consistent for the Predecessor and for us, the expense structure of our company since completion of the IPO and the formation transactions differs from the historical expense structure of the Predecessor. During the periods of financial information for the Predecessor, the Ziegler Funds had no direct employees and paid a fixed annual management fee to Ziegler, which managed the operations of the Ziegler Funds. By contrast, as a self-managed REIT, we do not pay management fees to third parties (other than to third party property management companies with respect to certain of our properties) but rather we pay cash and other forms of compensation to our officers and employees. Also, effective upon completion of the formation transactions, we entered into a Shared Services Agreement with Ziegler pursuant to which we pay Ziegler a fixed annual fee for office space, IT support, accounting support and similar services. In addition, as a public reporting company, we have incurred and expect to continue to incur certain expenses, such as legal and accounting expenses relating to SEC reporting and other matters that were not incurred historically by the Predecessor, which was not a public reporting company.
Revenues
Revenues consist primarily of the rental revenues and property operating expense recoveries we collect from tenants pursuant to our leases. Additionally, we recognize certain cash and non-cash revenues. These cash and non-cash revenues are highlighted below.
Rental revenues. Rental revenues represent rent under existing leases that is paid by our tenants and straight-lining of contractual rents reduced by lease inducement and above-market lease amortization.
Expense recoveries. Certain of our leases require our tenants to make estimated payments to us to cover their proportional share of operating expenses, including but not limited to real estate taxes, property insurance, routine maintenance and repairs, utilities, and property management expenses. We collect these estimated expenses and are reimbursed by our tenants for any actual expenses in excess of our estimates or reimburse tenants if our collected estimates exceed our actual operating expenses. The net reimbursed operating expenses are included in revenues as expense recoveries.
We have certain tenants with absolute net leases. Under these lease agreements, the tenant is responsible for operating and building expenses. For absolute net leases, we do not recognize operating expense or expense recoveries.
Interest income on real estate loans and other. Represents interest income on a mezzanine loan and change in fair value of derivative liability. Interest income on the loan is recognized as earned based on the terms of the loan subject to evaluation of collectability risks.
We have implemented Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC 815), which establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that all derivatives, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts, be recorded as either an asset or liability measured at their fair value unless they qualify for a normal purchase or normal sales exception. When specific hedge accounting criteria are not met, ASC 815 requires that changes in a derivatives fair value be recognized currently in earnings. All of the changes in the fair market values of our derivative instruments are recorded in the consolidated and combined statements of operations.
Expenses
Expenses consist primarily of interest expense, general and administrative costs associated with operating our properties, operating expenses of our properties, depreciation and amortization, and costs we incur to acquire properties.
Interest expense, net. We recognize the interest expense we incur on our borrowings as interest expense. Additionally, we incur amortization expense for charges such as legal fees, commitment fees and arrangement fees that reflect costs incurred with arranging certain debt financings. We generally recognize these costs over the term of the respective debt instrument for which the costs were incurred as a component of interest expense.
General and administrative. General and administrative expenses include certain expenses such as compensation, accounting, legal and other professional fees as well as certain other administrative and travel costs, and expenses related to bank charges, franchises taxes, corporate filing fees, exchange listing fees, officer and trustee insurance costs and other costs associated with being a public company. In addition, effective upon completion of the IPO, we entered into a Shared Services Agreement with Ziegler with respect to certain overhead expenses. The fees paid under the Shared Services Agreement are included in general and administrative expenses.
Operating Expenses. Operating expenses include property operating expenses such as real estate taxes, property insurance, routine maintenance and repairs, utilities and property management expenses, some of which are reimbursed to us by tenants under the terms of triple net leases.
Depreciation and amortization. We incur depreciation and amortization expense on all of our long-lived assets. This non-cash expense is designed under generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, to reflect the economic useful lives of our assets.
Acquisition expenses. Acquisition costs are costs we incur in pursuing and closing property acquisitions accounted for as business combinations. These costs include legal, accounting, valuation, other professional or consulting fees and the compensation of certain employees who dedicate substantially all of their time to acquisition related job functions. We account for acquisition-related costs as expenses in the period in which the costs are incurred and the services are received.
Management fees. Ziegler and another subsidiary of the Ziegler Companies, Inc. historically charged a management fee to the Ziegler Funds. These management fees were discontinued upon our acquisition of our initial properties upon completion of our IPO and the formation transactions.
Equity in income of unconsolidated entity. We recognize our 40% share of earnings and losses from the entity that owns the land under Crescent City Surgical Centre.
Cash Flow
Cash flows from operating activities. Cash flows from operating activities are derived largely from net income by adjusting our revenues for those amounts not collected in cash during the period in which the revenue is recognized and for cash collected that was billed in prior periods or will be billed in future periods. Net income is further adjusted by adding back expenses charged in the period that is not paid for in cash during the same period. We expect to make our distributions based largely from cash provided by operations.
Cash flows from investing activities. Cash flows from investing activities consist of cash that is used during a period for making new investments and capital expenditures offset by cash provided from sales of real estate investments.
Cash flows from financing activities. Cash flows from financing activities consist of cash we receive from debt and equity financings. This cash provides the primary basis for investments in new properties and capital expenditures. While we may invest a portion of our cash from operations into new investments, as a result of the distribution requirements to maintain our REIT status, it is likely that additional debt or equity financings will finance the majority of our investment activity. Cash used in financing activities consists of repayment of debt and distributions paid to shareholders and OP Unit holders.
Results of Operations
Overview
As described above, following the completion of the IPO and the formation transactions, our structure and operations differ from the historical structure and operations of the Ziegler Funds. For this and other reasons set forth in Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, we do not believe that the Predecessors historical results of operations are indicative of our future operating results.

Revenues
Total revenues increased $10.4 million, or 279.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to ours and the Predecessors three months ended September 30, 2013. An analysis of selected revenues follows.
Rental revenues. Rental revenues increased $9.6 million, or 328.3%, from $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 to $12.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in rental revenues primarily resulted from property acquisitions which closed in the fourth quarter of 2013 and the 38 property acquisitions that closed in the nine months ended September 30, 2014 which resulted in an additional $9.7 million in revenue
Expense recoveries. Expense recoveries increased $0.6 million, or 69.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to ours and the Predecessors three months ended September 30, 2013. The increase is primarily due to additional expense recoveries related to the properties acquired in the fourth quarter of 2013 and nine months ended September 30, 2014.
Interest income on real estate loans and other. Interest income on real estate loans and other increased $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to ours and the Predecessors three months ended September 30, 2013. An increase of $0.2 million is due to the mezzanine loan transaction completed on January 2, 2014, and a $0.1 million increase in the gain from the change in fair value of a derivative liability.
Expenses
Total expenses increased by $11.4 million, or 220.3%, for the three months ended September 30, 2014 as compared to ours and the Predecessors three months ended September 30, 2013. An analysis of selected expenses follows.
Interest expense, net. Interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $1.9 million compared to $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of $1.1 million, or 131.4%. The $1.1 million increase was the result of a $0.5 million increase in interest on new mortgage debt and $0.8 million resulting from outstanding balances, non-use fees and amortization of deferred financing costs on our revolving line of credit (including a $0.1 million deferred financing cost write off relating to the Prior Credit Agreement), partially offset by $0.2 million decrease relating to a mortgage re-finance and debt pay-down.
General and administrative. General and administrative expenses increased $3.2 million or 245.9%, from $1.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2013 to $4.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase included salaries and benefits of $1.1 million (including non-cash share compensation of $0.6 million), professional fees of $0.2 million and other administrative costs of $1.9 million (including one-time Amendment Payment of $1.8 million to Ziegler).
Operating expenses. Operating expenses increased $1.4 million or 124.0%, from $1.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2013 to $2.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase is primarily due to the properties acquired in the fourth quarter of 2013 and the nine months ended September 30, 2014 which resulted in an additional $1.3 million of operating expenses.
Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased $3.3 million, or 285.1%, from $1.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2013 to $4.4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2014. The increase in depreciation and amortization was primarily from the properties acquired in the fourth quarter of 2013 and the nine months ended September 30, 2014 which resulted in an additional $3.3 million in depreciation and amortization for the three months ended September 30, 2014.
Acquisition expenses. Acquisition expenses increased $2.2 million or 286.5%, from $0.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2013 to $2.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2014. During the third quarter of 2014, we acquired $137.7 million of real estate that were considered business combinations and as such, the related acquisition costs were expensed, compared to $111.3 million for the third quarter of 2013.
Impairment loss. The Trust recognized a $0.3 million impairment on a Predecessor purchased medical office building.
Equity in income of unconsolidated entity. The change in equity income from unconsolidated entity for the three months ended September 30, 2014 was $0.03 million. The increase is the result of the acquisition of a 40% ownership interest in the entity that owns the land under Crescent City Surgical Centre for $1.3 million on February 21, 2014.
Gain (loss) on sale of property. On September 19, 2014, the Trust sold a 2,000 square foot medical office building condominium unit located in Florida for approximately $0.3 million. On September 30, 2013, the Trust sold a 4,000 square foot medical office building condominium unit located in Florida for approximately $0.5 million.
Nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2013

Cash flows from operating activities. Cash flows provided by operating activities was $7.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to cash flow used in operating activities of $0.03 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of $7.5 million. This change was primarily attributable to a $7.3 million increase in amortization and depreciation, a $1.5 million increase in non-cash stock compensation, a $1.6 million increase in other assets and accounts payable, a $2.2 million increase in accrued expense, and a $1.8 million increase in shared service agreement due to the Amendment Payment to Ziegler, partially offset by a $4.4 million increase in net loss and $2.7 million increase in straight line rents.

Cash flows used in investing activities was $413.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to cash flows used in investing activities of $101.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, representing a change of $312.1 million. The increase in cash flows used in investing activities was primarily attributable to the acquisition of 38 properties and one land purchase for $404.7 million and funding of the mezzanine loan for $6.8 million, and $0.6 million increase in capital expenditures on investment properties, which was partially offset by $100.0 million of acquisitions in the nine months ended September 30, 2013.
Cash flows from financing activities. Cash flows provided by financing activities was $366.5 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to cash flows provided by financing activities of $103.0 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, representing an increase of $263.5 million. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of $172.7 million in net proceeds from follow-on public offerings, net increase of proceeds and payments on credit facility borrowings of $50.2 million, increase of $26.4 million in proceeds from issuance of mortgage debt and a decrease of $36.7 million of payments on mortgage debt, partially offset by an increase of $20.1 million of dividends and distributions paid and an increase of $2.8 million of debt issuance costs on our credit facility.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of operating and interest expenses and other expenditures directly associated with our properties, including:
· property expenses;
· interest expense and scheduled principal payments on outstanding indebtedness;
· general and administrative expenses; and
· capital expenditures for tenant improvements and leasing commissions.
In addition, we will require funds for future distributions expected to be paid to our common shareholders and OP Unit holders in our Operating Partnership.
As of September 30, 2014, we had a total of $17.0 million of cash and cash equivalents and $255.8 million of near-term availability on our unsecured revolving credit facility. Also, we had an additional $74.2 million of availability under our unsecured revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2014 which is subject to customary property underwriting standards. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from operating activities and borrowings available under our senior secured revolving credit facility will be adequate to fund any
existing contractual obligations to purchase properties and other obligations through the next twelve months. However, because of the 90% distribution requirement under the REIT tax rules under the Code, we may not be able to fund all of our future capital needs from cash retained from operations, including capital needed to make investments and to satisfy or refinance maturing obligations. As a result, we expect to rely upon external sources of capital, including debt and equity financing, to fund future capital needs. If we are unable to obtain needed capital on satisfactory terms or at all, we may not be able to make the investments needed to expand our business or to meet our obligations and commitments as they mature. We will rely upon external sources of capital to fund future capital needs, and, if we encounter difficulty in obtaining such capital, we may not be able to make future acquisitions necessary to grow our business or meet maturing obligations.
Our long-term liquidity needs consist primarily of funds necessary to pay for acquisitions, recurring and non-recurring capital expenditures and scheduled debt maturities. We expect to satisfy our long-term liquidity needs through cash flow from operations, unsecured borrowings, issuances of equity securities, and, in connection with acquisitions of additional properties, the issuance of OP Units of our Operating Partnership, and proceeds from select property dispositions and joint venture transactions.
We intend to invest in additional properties as suitable opportunities arise and adequate sources of financing are available. We currently are evaluating additional potential investments consistent with the normal course of our business. There can be no assurance as to whether or when any portion of these investments will be completed. Our ability to complete investments is subject to a number of risks and variables, including our ability to negotiate mutually agreeable terms with sellers and our ability to finance the investment. We may not be successful in identifying and consummating suitable acquisitions or investment opportunities, which may impede our growth and negatively affect our results of operations and may result in the use of a significant amount of management resources. We expect that future investments in properties will depend on and will be financed by, in whole or in part, our existing cash, borrowings, including under our unsecured revolving credit facility or the proceeds from additional issuances of common or preferred shares, issuances of OP Units or other securities.
On August 4, 2014, we filed the Shelf Registration Statement with the Commission, allowing us to offer up to $900 million of an indeterminate amount of common shares, preferred shares, convertible preferred shares, debt securities, convertible debt securities or other types of securities, from time to time. The Commission declared the Shelf Registration Statement effective on August 19, 2014. There can be no assurance that we will be able to complete any such securities offerings. Factors influencing the availability of additional financing include investor perception of our prospects and the general condition of the financial markets. Future issuances of our securities may be dilutive to existing shareholders.
On August 19, 2014, we and the Operating Partnership entered into separate At Market Issuance Sales Agreements (the Sales Agreements) with each of MLV & Co. LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., JMP Securities LLC, and RBC Capital Markets, LLC (the Agents), pursuant to which we may issue and sell common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $150 million, from time to time, through the Agents pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement. In accordance with the Sales Agreements, we may offer and sell our common shares through any of the Agents, from time to time, by any method deemed to be an at the market offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, which includes sales made directly on the NYSE, or other existing trading market, or sales made to or through a market maker. With our express written consent, sales also may be made in negotiated transactions or any other method permitted by law. The common shares are registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, and are being offered pursuant to a prospectus dated August 19, 2014, as supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated August 19, 2014, filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act. During the quarterly period ended September 30, 2014, we did not issue and sell any common shares pursuant to any of the Sales Agreements.
Effective September 18, 2014, the Credit Agreement, dated as of August 29, 2013 (as amended, restated, increased, extended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the Prior Credit Agreement), among the Operating Partnership, as borrower, the Company, certain subsidiaries and other affiliates of the Operating Partnership, as guarantors, Regions Bank, as administrative agent, Regions Capital Markets, as sole lead arranger and sole book runner, and the lenders party thereto, and all commitments provided thereunder, were terminated. All amounts due and outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement were repaid on or prior to such date.
On September 18, 2014, the Operating Partnership, as borrower, and the Company and certain subsidiaries and other affiliates of the Company, as guarantors, entered into a Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement) with KeyBank National Association as administrative agent, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Regions Capital Markets and BMO Capital Markets, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, Regions Capital Markets and BMO Capital Markets, as co-syndication agents, and the lenders party thereto in connection with an unsecured revolving credit facility in the maximum principal amount of $400 million. The Credit Agreement includes a swingline loan commitment for up to 10% of the maximum principal amount and provides an accordion feature allowing the Trust to increase borrowing capacity by up to an additional $350 million, subject to customary terms and conditions, resulting in a maximum borrowing capacity of $750 million. The Credit Agreement replaced our senior secured revolving credit facility in the maximum principal amount of $200 million under the Prior Credit Agreement.
The Credit Agreement has a maturity date of September 18, 2018 and includes a one-year extension option. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 1.50% to 2.20%. In addition, the Credit Agreement includes an unused fee equal to 0.15% or 0.25% per annum, which is determined by usage under the Credit Agreement. Any additional indebtedness incurred or issued by us may be secured or unsecured, may have a short, medium, or long term fixed or variable interest rate and may be subject to other terms and conditions. We may also enter into financing arrangements on terms that we might not otherwise accept if we were in need of liquidity and had limited options.
The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that, among other things, require compliance with leverage and coverage ratios and maintenance of minimum tangible net worth, as well as covenants that may limit our and the Operating Partnerships ability to incur additional debt or make distributions. We may, at any time, voluntarily prepay any loan under the Credit Agreement in whole or in part without premium or penalty. As of September 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all financial covenants.
The Credit Agreement includes customary representations and warranties by the Operating Partnership, us and each other guarantor and imposes customary covenants on the Operating Partnership, us and each other guarantor. The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, and if an event of default occurs and continues, the Operating Partnership is subject to certain actions by the administrative agent, including without limitation, the acceleration of repayment of all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
We currently do not expect to sell any of our properties to meet our liquidity needs, although we may do so in the future.
We intend to refinance at maturity the mortgage notes payable that have balloon payments at maturity.
We currently are in compliance with all debt covenants in our outstanding indebtedness.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
As of September 30, 2014, we have no off-balance sheet debt.
Seasonality
Our business has not been and we do not expect it to become subject to material seasonal fluctuations.

Our consolidated and combined financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for interim financial information set forth in the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC), as published by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) , which require us to make estimates and assumptions regarding future events that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated and combined financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. We base these estimates on our experience and assumptions we
believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. However, if our judgment or interpretation of the facts and circumstances relating to various transactions or other matters had been different, we may have applied a different accounting treatment, resulting in a different presentation of our financial statements. We periodically reevaluate our estimates and assumptions, and in the event they prove to be different from actual results, we make adjustments in subsequent periods to reflect more current estimates and assumptions about matters that are inherently uncertain. Please refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the SEC on March 21, 2014, for further information regarding the critical accounting policies that affect our more significant estimates and judgments used in the preparation of our consolidated and combined financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this report.
Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012
The Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or JOBS Act, permits us, as an emerging growth company, to take advantage of an extended transition period to comply with new or revised accounting standards applicable to public companies. We have elected to opt out of this provision and, as a result, we will be required to comply with new or revised accounting standards as required when they are adopted. The decision to opt out of the extended transition period under the JOBS Act is irrevocable.
REIT Qualification Requirements
We are subject to a number of operational and organizational requirements necessary to qualify and maintain our qualification as a REIT. If we fail to qualify as a REIT or fail to remain qualified as a REIT in any taxable year, our income would be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates and potentially increased state and local taxes and could incur substantial tax liabilities which could have an adverse impact upon our results of operations, liquidity and distributions to our shareholders.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Our future income, cash flows and fair values relevant to financial instruments are dependent upon prevailing market interest rates. Market risk refers to the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and interest rates. We use certain derivative financial instruments to manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings. We do not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and only enter into contracts with major financial institutions based upon their credit rating and other factors. Our derivative instrument consists solely of an interest rate swap that is not traded on an exchange and is recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at its fair value. See Note 8 to our consolidated and combined financial statements included in Item 1 to this report.
An interest rate swap is a contractual agreement entered into by two counterparties under which each agrees to make periodic payments to the other for an agreed period of time based on a notional amount of principal. Under the most common form of interest rate swap, known from our perspective as a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap, a series of floating, or variable, rate payments on a notional amount of principal is exchanged for a series of fixed interest rate payments on such notional amount.
No assurance can be given that any future hedging activities by us will have the desired beneficial effect on our results of operations or financial condition.
The variable rate component of our consolidated indebtedness at September 30, 2014 is LIBOR based. Assuming no increase in the amount of our variable rate debt, if LIBOR were to increase by 100 basis points, interest expense on our variable rate debt at September 30, 2014, would increase by approximately $0.7 million annually, and if LIBOR were to decrease by 100 basis points, interest expense on our variable rate debt at September 30, 2014, would decrease by approximately $0.7 million annually.
Interest risk amounts are our managements estimates and were determined by considering the effect of hypothetical interest rates on our consolidated financial instruments. These analyses do not consider the effect of any change in overall economic activity that could occur in that environment. Further, in the event of a change of that magnitude, we may take actions to further mitigate our exposure to the change. However, due to the uncertainty of the specific actions that would be taken and their possible effects, these analyses assume no changes in our financial structure.
Indebtedness
As of September 30, 2014, we had total consolidated indebtedness of approximately $153.4 million. The weighted average interest rate on our consolidated indebtedness was 3.54% (based on the 30-day LIBOR rate as of September 30, 2014, of 0.154%). As of September 30, 2014, we had approximately $74.4 million, or approximately 49%, of our outstanding long-term debt exposed to fluctuations in short-term interest rates.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
We have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, regarding the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2014, the end of the period covered by this report. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded, as of September 30, 2014, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act (i) is processed, recorded, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commissions rules and forms and (ii) is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
No changes to our internal control over financial reporting were identified in connection with the evaluation referenced above that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
From time to time, we may be party to various lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of our business. We are not currently a party, as plaintiff or defendant, to any legal proceedings which, individually or in the aggregate, would be expected to have a material effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations if determined adversely to us.
In addition to the following description of risk factors, information on risk factors can be found in Part I, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the Commission on March 21, 2014 (the Annual Report), and in Part II, Item 1A (Risk Factors) of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2014, filed with the Commission on May 7, 2014 (the First Quarter Quarterly Report). There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in the Annual Report as superseded by the First Quarter Quarterly Report. Our business, financial condition and operating results can be materially adversely affected by a number of factors, whether currently known or unknown, including, but not limited to, those described below, any one or more of which could, directly or indirectly, cause our actual results of operations and financial condition to vary materially from past, or from anticipated future, results of operations and financial condition. Any of these factors, in whole or in part, could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and common stock price. In such case, the market value of our securities could be detrimentally affected, and investors may lose part or all of the value of their investment.
The following discussion of risk factors contains forward-looking statements. These risk factors may be important to understanding any statement in this report or elsewhere. The following information should be read in conjunction with our consolidated and combined financial statements included and related notes in Part I, Item 1, Financial Statements and Part I, Item 2, Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of this report.
Because of the following risk factors, as well as other risk factors affecting our financial condition and operating results, past financial performance should not be considered to be a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future periods. You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the risk factors previously disclosed in the Annual Report as superseded by the First Quarter Quarterly Report.
Increases in market interest rates may have an adverse effect on the trading prices of our common shares as prospective purchasers of our common shares may expect a higher dividend yield and as an increased cost of borrowing may decrease our funds available for distribution.
One of the factors that influences the trading prices of our common shares is the dividend yield on the common shares (as a percentage of the price of our common shares) relative to market interest rates. An increase in market interest rates, which are currently at low levels relative to historical rates, may lead prospective purchasers of our common shares to expect a higher dividend yield (with a resulting decline in the trading prices of our common shares) and higher interest rates would likely increase our borrowing costs and potentially decrease funds available for distribution. Thus, higher market interest rates could cause the market price of our common shares to decrease.
The number of our common shares available for future issuance or sale could materially adversely affect the per share trading price of our common shares.
As of November 7, 2014, we have issued and outstanding approximately 47,381,216 common shares and 3,190,339 common shares reserved for issuance upon redemption of our outstanding OP Units. Of these common shares, all are freely tradable, except for any common shares owned or any common shares owned by our affiliates, as that term is defined by Rule 144 under the Securities Act. We have registered the common shares issuable upon redemption of the OP Units so that such shares will be freely tradable under the securities laws.
Pursuant to the partnership agreement, limited partners, other than us, have redemption rights, to cause our Operating Partnership to redeem their OP Units in exchange for cash or, at our option, for common shares on a one-for-one basis, generally commencing one year from the date of issuance of such units. Pursuant to the terms of the partnership agreement, certain limited partners, including each of the Ziegler Funds, exercised their respective redemption rights and in connection therewith, we purchased on October 1, 2014 an aggregate of 545,750 OP Units in exchange for an aggregate of approximately $7.5 million in cash and the Trust issued 2,005,101 common shares to redeem 2,005,101 OP Units. The common shares issued were issued (a) in private placements in reliance on Section 4(2) of the Securities Act Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and (b) to accredited investors within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. The resale of the common shares by the then selling shareholders and former limited partners has been registered by us under the Securities Act pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement.
These and other future issuances or sales of our common shares or the availability of shares for resale in the open market may decrease the per share trading price of our common shares.
Our issuance of equity securities, including OP Units, or the perception that such issuances might occur could materially adversely affect us, including the per share trading price of our common shares.
The vesting of any restricted shares granted to trustees, executive officers and other employees under our 2013 Equity Incentive Plan, the issuance of our common shares or OP Units in connection with future property, portfolio or business acquisitions and other issuances of our common shares could have an adverse effect on the per share trading price of our common shares may adversely affect the terms upon which we may be able to obtain additional capital through the sale of equity securities. In addition, future issuances of our common shares may be dilutive to existing shareholders.
Our effective Shelf Registration Statement covers the offering, from time to time, of various securities with an aggregate value of up to $900 million.
On August 19, 2014, we and the Operating Partnership entered into separate At Market Issuance Sales Agreements (the Sales Agreements) with each of MLV & Co. LLC, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., JMP Securities LLC, and RBC Capital Markets, LLC (the Agents), pursuant to which we may issue and sell common shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $150 million, from time to time, through the Agents pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement. In accordance with the Sales Agreements, we may offer and sell our common shares through any of the Agents, from time to time, by any method deemed to be an at the market offering as defined in Rule 415 under the Securities Act, which includes sales made directly on the NYSE, or other existing
trading market, or sales made to or through a market maker. With our express written consent, sales also may be made in negotiated transactions or any other method permitted by law. The common shares are registered under the Securities Act pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, and are being offered pursuant to a prospectus dated August 19, 2014, as supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated August 19, 2014, filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act. During the quarterly period ended September 30, 2014, we did not issue and sell any common shares pursuant to any of the Sales Agreements.
Any offering pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, whether an at the market offering or otherwise, may cause dilution to our shareholders and could cause the per share trading price of our common shares to decline.
Future offerings of debt, which would be senior to our common shares upon liquidation, or preferred equity securities which may be senior to our common shares for purposes of dividend distributions or upon liquidation, may materially adversely affect us, including the per share trading price of our common shares.
In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by making additional offerings of debt or equity securities (or causing our Operating Partnership to issue debt securities), including medium-term notes, senior or subordinated notes and classes or series of preferred shares. Upon liquidation, holders of our debt securities and preferred shares and lenders with respect to other borrowings will be entitled to receive our available assets prior to distribution to the holders of our common shares. Additionally, any convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue in the future may have rights, preferences and privileges more favorable than those of our common shares and may result in dilution to owners of our common shares. Holders of our common shares are not entitled to preemptive rights or other protections against dilution. Our preferred shares, if issued, could have a preference on liquidating distributions or a preference on dividend payments that could limit our ability pay dividends or other distributions to the holders of our common shares. Because our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. Thus, our shareholders bear the risk that our future offerings could reduce the per share trading price of our common shares and dilute their interest in us.
If securities analysts do not publish research or reports about our industry or if they downgrade our common shares or the healthcare-related real estate sector, the market price of our common shares could decline.
The trading market for our common shares depends in part upon the research and reports that industry or financial analysts publish about us or our industry. We have no control over these analysts. Furthermore, if one or more of the analysts who do cover us downgrades our shares or our industry, or the stock of any of our competitors, the price of our common shares could decline. If one or more of these analysts ceases coverage of our company, we could lose attention in the market which in turn could cause the market price of our common shares to decline.

Buyer shall cause the Title Company at or prior to Closing to down date the Title Commitment to the date and time of the Closing and provide a title mark-up showing the final form of the title insurance policy (including the above referenced endorsements) to be issued, which mark-up shall obligate the Title Company to issue the final title insurance policy in such form. The title mark-up and final title insurance policy shall be free from the standard requirements and exceptions and shall be subject only to liens, encumbrances or exceptions specifically approved by Buyer (the Permitted Exceptions). A written statement of the obligee of the amount of any lien or encumbrance to be discharged by Seller shall be provided by Seller within ten (10) days after the title evidence is furnished to Buyer.

All other closing expenses shall be allocated between the parties in the customary manner for sales of real property in the locality where the Property is located. Each party is responsible for paying its own respective attorneys fees incurred in negotiating, preparing and closing the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.
(e) All rights, privileges, income, rents, liabilities, obligations, expenses and costs relating to a deemed assignment and transfer of the Contract Rights, Records and Plans, Warranties and Licenses and Permits as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by Seller at Closing.
(f) Any and all other normal, on-going operating expenses attributable to the Seller, the Company and/or the Property that are not included in the pass-through charges to tenants of the Property shall be prorated between the parties through the day before Closing.
(g) Prior to December 31, 2014, Buyer and Seller shall reconcile all of the foregoing payments and prorations based on actual bills or invoices received after the Closing, but only if the prorations or payments were based on an estimate and not actual current bills or invoices. Any party owing to the other party any amount ascertained by the required reconciliations shall promptly, but in no event later than fifteen (15) business days after the date of the applicable reconciliation, pay the other party such amount. The obligations set forth in this Section 9(g) shall survive Closing until December 31, 2014.
As applicable, all of the foregoing items set forth in this Section 9, unless otherwise expressly stated, shall be prorated between the parties as of midnight of the day before Closing.
10. Condemnation; Rezoning, Historic Designation. Seller represents and warrants that neither Seller nor the Company has heretofore received any notice of any eminent domain or
condemnation proceeding in connection with the Property. If prior to Closing any such eminent domain or condemnation proceeding is commenced or any change is made, or proposed to be made to: (i) any material portion or all of the Property; (ii) the current means of ingress and egress to the Property; or (iii) to the roads or driveways adjoining the Property, Seller agrees immediately to notify Buyer in writing thereof. Buyer then shall have the right, at Buyers option, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller prior to Closing. If Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the terms set forth in this Section 10, the Deposit shall be immediately returned to Buyer together with all accrued interest, Buyer and Seller shall be released from any further liability hereunder and this Agreement shall be null and void, except as otherwise provided herein. If Buyer does not so terminate this Agreement, Buyer shall proceed to Closing hereunder as if no such proceeding had commenced and will pay Seller the full Purchase Price in accordance with this Agreement, and Seller shall assign to Buyer all of its right, title and interest in and to any compensation for such condemnation. Seller shall not negotiate or settle any claims for compensation prior to Closing or termination of this Agreement, and Buyer shall have the sole right (in the name of Buyer, Seller, the Company, or any combination thereof) to negotiate for, to agree to, and to contest all offers and awards so long as Buyer has not terminated this Agreement.
If, prior to closing, there is a designation of the Real Property (and/or any improvement located thereon) or any portion thereof as a historic structure or other historic designation, or is threatened, commenced or finalized, or there is a threatened, commenced or finalized rezoning of the Real Property, Seller shall promptly notify Buyer, and Buyer may elect to terminate this Agreement prior to Closing, in which event the Deposit and all accrued interest thereon shall be returned forthwith to Buyer, Buyer and Seller shall be released from any further liability hereunder and this Agreement shall be null and void, except as otherwise provided herein. If Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and at Closing Seller shall assign to Buyer all Sellers right, title and interest in and to any dollars paid by the governmental authority (if any) in connection with the rezoning of the Real Property or historic designation.
11. Default by Buyer. If Buyer, without the right to do so and in default of its obligations hereunder, fails to complete Closing, the Deposit and all accrued interest shall be paid to Seller. Such payment of the Deposit and all accrued interest to Seller shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for Buyers default and the receipt of same shall be Sellers exclusive and sole remedy; and Seller hereby waives any right to recover the balance of the Purchase Price, or any part thereof, and the right to pursue any other remedy permitted at law or in equity against Buyer. The parties agree that it would be impracticable and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual damages suffered by Seller as a result of Buyers failure to complete the transactions contemplated pursuant to this Agreement, and that under the circumstances existing as of the date of this Agreement, the liquidated damages provided for in this Section represent a reasonable estimate of the damages which Seller will incur as a result of such failure. The parties acknowledge that the payment of such liquidated damages is not intended as a forfeiture or penalty under any legal or equitable theory, but is intended to constitute liquidated damages to Seller. The provisions of this Section 11 are not intended to, and in no way limit, Buyers indemnification obligations under this Agreement.
12. Default by Seller. If Seller defaults in the performance of any obligation
contained in this Agreement or, without the right to do so and in default of its obligations hereunder, fails to complete Closing, Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, in which case, the Deposit and all accrued interest shall be returned to Buyer and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for all of Buyers reasonable costs incurred in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, up to a maximum amount of $75,000 in the aggregate. Alternatively, Buyer may elect not to terminate this Agreement and seek specific performance of this Agreement. Buyer must elect one of the two alternate remedies set forth above. Seller waives the right to assert the defense of lack of mutuality in any action for specific performance instituted by Buyer. The provisions of this Section 12 are not intended to, and in no way limit, Sellers indemnification obligations under this Agreement.
13. Risk of Loss. Seller shall bear the risk of all loss or damage to the Property from all causes until Closing. Seller represents that the Company has, and will maintain pending Closing, a policy of fire and extended coverage insurance in at least the full amount of the replacement cost of all buildings and improvements located on the Property. If at any time prior to Closing any material portion of the Property is destroyed or damaged as a result of fire or any other casualty whatsoever, and as a consequence of such material damage or destruction, any tenant of the Property has the right to terminate its Lease, Seller shall promptly give written notice thereof to Buyer and Buyer shall have the right: (i) to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, whereupon Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit (with any accrued interest) to Buyer, and thereafter this Agreement shall be void and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except as otherwise provided herein; or (ii) to proceed with this Agreement and to notify Seller that, at Buyers sole option, Seller either shall: (A) use any available insurance proceeds to restore the Property prior to Closing to its condition as of the Effective Date, and if there are any excess insurance proceeds after completion of such restoration(excluding any loss or rents or business interruption insurance proceeds payable to Seller for periods prior to Closing, being collectively referred to herein as Seller Loss of Rents Coverage), Seller shall promptly deposit same in escrow with Escrow Agent and such funds, together with any interest thereon, shall be disbursed to Buyer at Closing; or (B) in lieu of restoration, prior to Closing, clear the site of debris and deposit all remaining insurance proceeds except Seller Loss of Rents Coverage in escrow with Escrow Agent and such funds, together with interest thereon, shall be disbursed to Buyer at Closing. All unpaid claims and rights in connection with any such losses except Sellers Loss of Rents Coverage shall be assigned to Buyer at Closing without in any manner affecting the Purchase Price. In the event Buyer elects to proceed under clause (ii)(A) or (ii)(B) above, Seller shall either expend the deductible amount provided for in such insurance coverage in making such restoration or clearing the Property, as the case may be, or give Buyer a credit therefore against the Purchase Price.
14. Brokerage. Buyer represents and warrants to Seller, and Seller represents and warrants to Buyer, that, except for RealPlex LLC, the broker representing Seller in this transaction (Seller Broker), neither has dealt with any broker, agent, finder or other intermediary in connection with the transactions contemplated pursuant to this Agreement. Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against the claims of any and all brokers or intermediaries claiming a commission through Buyer in connection with the transactions contemplated pursuant to this Agreement, and Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Buyer harmless from and against the claims of any and all brokers or intermediaries claiming a commission through Seller in connection with the transactions contemplated pursuant
to this Agreement, including Seller Broker.
15. Operation of the Property Prior to and After Closing.
(a) Prior to closing, Seller shall cause the Company to operate, manage and maintain the Property in a reasonable, professional and prudent manner, and keep the same in good condition at all times. Without expense to Buyer, Seller shall cause the Company to make all repairs and replacements (structural and non-structural, ordinary and extraordinary) so that the Property is maintained in its present condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted. From and after Closing, Buyer shall continue in full force and effect all Contract Rights in accordance with their current terms as of the Effective Date, except that the Property Management Agreement with Hplex Solutions attached hereto as Exhibit J, shall be executed and delivered by Buyer and Hplex Solutions for a term of five (5) years..
(b) Prior to closing, upon reasonable notice to Seller and subject to the rights of tenants under Leases, Buyer, its accountants, architects, attorneys, engineers, contractors and other representatives shall be afforded access to: (i) the Property to inspect, measure, appraise, test and make surveys of the Property, including, but not limited to, all activities necessary to satisfy the contingencies set forth in this Section 15 and elsewhere in this Agreement; and (ii) all books, records and files relating to the Property. Buyer shall have the right, at Buyers expense, to make copies of all such books and records, including, without limitation, all books and records relating to increases in real estate taxes, building and operations maintenance costs; provided, however, that Buyer shall return all copies of such books and records if Closing does not occur under this Agreement. Buyer shall not interfere unreasonably with the operation of the Property and shall restore any area on the Property disturbed in the course of Buyers testing to the conditions existing prior to any tests conducted by Buyer. Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its members, officers, agents, managers, employees, and tenants, (collectively, Seller Parties) from and against, and to reimburse Seller Parties with respect to any and all claims, demands, causes of action, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including attorneys fees and court costs) asserted against or incurred by Seller Parties by reason of or arising out access to the Property by Buyer, its agents, representatives, contractors and subcontractors for the purpose of making such investigations, inspections, tests, assessments, surveys and the like in accordance with this Agreement. The indemnity contained in this Section 15(b) shall survive any termination of this Agreement, any statement contained herein that this Agreement is void and of no further force or effect, and the Closing. In furtherance of such indemnity, connection with any access to the Property by Buyer, its agents, representatives, contractors and subcontractors, Buyer certifies to Seller that it will maintain liability insurance coverage in an amount not less than $5,000,000.
(c) Seller shall cause the Company to comply with all of the obligations of landlord under the Leases and all other agreements and contractual arrangements affecting the Property by which the Company is bound.
(d) Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of Sellers or the Companys receipt of any notice from any party alleging that the Company is in default of its obligations under any of the Leases or any permit or agreement affecting the Property, or any portion or portions thereof.
(e) From and after the Effective Date, no contract for or on behalf of or
affecting the Property shall be negotiated or entered into which cannot be terminated by Seller or the Company prior to Closing without charge, cost, penalty or premium.
(f) Except with the prior written consent of Buyer, the Company shall not enter into any new leases for any portion of the Property. Any new lease shall be on a form of lease supplied to Seller by Buyer. In the event Buyer approves any new leases, Seller shall deliver to Buyer an Estoppel Certificate from the tenant(s) and guarantor(s) thereunder as required hereunder for the Leases and otherwise shall comply, as to such new leases and new guarantees, with the terms of this Agreement relating to the Leases and the Guarantees. Further, except with the prior written consent of Buyer, the Company shall not amend, extend, terminate, accept surrender of, or permit any assignments or subleases of, any of the Leases nor accept any rental more than one (1) month in advance or accelerate the rent due to any tenant default under any of the Leases.
(g) From the Effective Date until Closing, Seller shall cause the Company to maintain the Contract Rights, Records and Plans, Warranties, and Licenses and Permits in full force and effect as applicable and shall not terminate, modify or waive any provision thereof. The Company shall not enter into any new contracts or agreements relating to the Property without Buyers prior written consent.
16. Notice. All notices, requests and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered: (i) in person; or (ii) by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested; or (iii) by recognized overnight delivery service providing positive tracking of items (for example, Federal Express); or (iv) by electronic transmission (so long as one of methods (i), (ii) or (iii) are simultaneously utilized) addressed as follows or at such other address of which Seller or Buyer shall have given notice as herein provided:

Seller and the Company have timely paid all taxes due with respect to the taxable periods covered by such tax returns and all other taxes arising in connection with or relating to the Property (whether or not shown on any tax return).

Seller and the Company do not and will not have additional liability for taxes with respect to any tax return which was required by applicable laws to be filed on or before the Closing Date.

Neither Seller nor the Company has waived any statute of limitations with respect to taxes or agreed to an extension of time with respect to any tax assessment or deficiency. Neither Seller nor the Company is a party to, or bound by, any tax allocation or sharing agreement, tax indemnity obligation or similar contract or practice. Neither Seller nor the Company has made any election to be excluded from the provisions of subchapter K of the Code or to be taxable as a corporation.

(v) All work performed or materials furnished for the Property have been fully paid for.

9.1 Taxes. All general real estate and personal property taxes shall be prorated through the day before the Closing based on the taxes for the year of Closing, if known,
otherwise on the prior years taxes. Contributor shall be responsible for all real estate taxes through the day prior to the Closing. In the event taxes are prorated on the prior years taxes, the parties agree to reprorate taxes when the taxes for the current year are known, and the parties agree to make such payment between themselves to effectuate such reproration. Assessments of any kind (general, special or otherwise) levied or to be levied, if any, for work on site actually commenced or announced (by either a private individual or entity or a governmental entity) prior to Closing shall be paid by Contributor at or prior to Closing. All other assessments shall be paid by Acquirer if this transaction is consummated.

Any rent and or other payments under the Leases delinquent as of Closing shall not be prorated. If Acquirer collects delinquencies after Closing pertaining to Contributors period of ownership, Acquirer shall remit such amounts to Contributor. Contributor shall be responsible for obtaining all necessary billing information for the Utility Charges in order to accurately reflect the same on the Closing Statement. Income derived from the Property that is earned as of the day of Closing shall accrue to the benefit of Acquirer.
9.3 Taxes, Insurance, CAM Charges and Security Deposits Collected from Tenants. At Closing, Contributor shall pay to Acquirer any and all funds paid to Contributor by tenants in the Property on account of security deposits and additional rent items not yet due and payable by Contributor, such as tax, insurance and CAM charge escrows. Contributor shall make such payment in the form of a credit against the Consideration in favor of Acquirer. The parties agree to enter into a reconciliation agreement at Closing obligating the parties to reconcile the taxes, insurance, and CAM charges collected from Tenants as additional rent pursuant to Section 9.6, below.
9.4 Closing Costs. Contributor shall pay all transfer taxes associated with the conveyance of the Property and all recording fees customarily paid sellers in the locality where the Property is located. Acquirer shall be responsible for the payment of all title fees and premiums associated with the Title Policy (including the mortgagee policy, if any).

Each party is responsible for paying its own respective attorneys fees incurred in negotiating, preparing and closing the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.
9.5 Other Operating Costs. Any and all other normal, on-going operating expenses attributable to the Property, except to the extent any of the same relate to the Contract Rights excluded from the Property pursuant to Section 7.2(b) of this Agreement, shall be prorated between the parties through the day before Closing.
9.6 Reconciliation. Within ninety (90) days after the Closing, or as soon thereafter as practicable, Acquirer and Contributor shall reconcile all of the foregoing payments and prorations based on actual bills or invoices received after the Closing, but only if the prorations or payments were based on an estimate and not actual current bills or invoices. In the
event that any item of income, charge, or expense cannot be reconciled accurately within such 90-day period, the Acquirer and Contributor hereby agree to delay such reconciliation until a date when it can be accurately completed. Any party owing to the other party any amount ascertained by the required reconciliations shall promptly, but in no event later than fifteen (15) business days after the date of the applicable reconciliation, pay the other party such amount. The obligations set forth in this Section 9.6 shall survive Closing.
9.7 Time of Proration. As applicable, all of the foregoing items set forth in this Section 9, unless otherwise expressly stated, shall be prorated between the parties as of midnight of the day before Closing.
10. Condemnation; Rezoning, Historic Designation.
10.1 Condemnation. Contributor represents and warrants that Contributor has not heretofore received any notice of any eminent domain or condemnation proceeding in connection with the Property. If prior to Closing any such eminent domain or condemnation proceeding is commenced or any change is made, or proposed to be made to: (i) any portion or all of the Property; (ii) the current means of ingress and egress to the Property; or (iii) to the roads or driveways adjoining the Property, Contributor agrees immediately to notify Acquirer in writing thereof. Acquirer then shall have the right, at Acquirers option, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Contributor prior to Closing. If Acquirer elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the terms set forth in this Section 10, the Deposit shall be promptly returned to Acquirer together with all accrued interest, and thereafter neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder, except for the Surviving Obligations. If Acquirer does not so terminate this Agreement, Acquirer shall proceed to Closing hereunder as if no such proceeding had commenced and will pay Contributor the full Consideration in accordance with this Agreement, and Contributor shall assign to Acquirer all of its right, title and interest in and to any compensation for such condemnation. Contributor shall not negotiate or settle any claims for compensation prior to Closing, and Acquirer shall have the sole right (in the name of Acquirer or Contributor or both) to negotiate for, to agree to, and to contest all offers and awards.
10.2 Historic Designation/Rezoning. If, prior to closing, there is a designation of the Real Property (and/or any improvement located thereon) or any portion thereof as a historic structure or other historic designation, or any such historic designation is threatened, commenced or finalized, or there is a threatened, commenced or finalized rezoning of the Real Property, Contributor shall promptly notify Acquirer, and Acquirer may elect to terminate this Agreement prior to Closing, in which event the Deposit and all accrued interest thereon shall be returned forthwith to Acquirer, Acquirer and Contributor shall be released from any further liability hereunder and this Agreement shall terminate, except for the Surviving Obligations. If Acquirer does not elect to terminate this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and at Closing Contributor shall assign to Acquirer all Contributors right, title and interest in and to any dollars paid by the governmental authority (if any) in connection with the rezoning of the Real Property or historic designation.
11. Default by Acquirer. If Acquirer, without the right to do so and in default of its obligations hereunder, fails to complete Closing as to the Property, the Deposit and all accrued
interest shall be paid to Contributor. Such payment of the Deposit and all accrued interest to Contributor shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for Acquirers default and the receipt of same shall be Contributors exclusive and sole remedy; and Contributor hereby waives any right to recover the balance of the Consideration, or any part thereof, and the right to pursue any other remedy permitted at law or in equity against Acquirer. The parties agree that it would be impracticable and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual damages suffered by Contributor as a result of Acquirers failure to complete the acquisition of the Property pursuant to this Agreement, and that under the circumstances existing as of the Effective Date, the liquidated damages provided for in this Section represent a reasonable estimate of the damages which Contributor will incur as a result of such failure. The parties acknowledge that the payment of such liquidated damages is not intended as a forfeiture or penalty under any legal or equitable theory, but is intended to constitute liquidated damages to Contributor.
12. Default by Contributor. If Contributor, defaults in the performance of any obligation contained in this Agreement or, without the right to do so and in default of its obligations hereunder, fails to complete Closing, the Deposit and all accrued interest shall be returned to Acquirer and Contributor shall reimburse Acquirer for all of Acquirers Transaction Costs. In addition, Acquirer may pursue an action for specific performance and/or damages; provided, however, that in any suit for damages Acquirers damages shall be capped at $100,000, which amount the parties agree shall constitute liquidated damages and the maximum recoverable amount in the case of a suit for damages. The parties agree that it would be impracticable and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual damages suffered by Acquirer as a result of Contributors failure to complete the contribution of the Property pursuant to this Agreement, and that under the circumstances existing as of the Effective Date, the liquidated damages provided for in this Section represent a reasonable estimate of the damages which Acquirer will incur as a result of such failure. Acquirer waives any right to sue for damages. Contributor waives the right to assert the defense of lack of mutuality in any action for specific performance instituted by Acquirer. Contributor shall have no right to cure any default.
13. Risk of Loss. Contributor shall bear the risk of all loss or damage to the Property from all causes until Closing. Contributor represents that it has, and will maintain pending Closing, a policy of fire and extended coverage insurance in at least the full amount of the replacement cost of all buildings and improvements located on the Property. If at any time prior to Closing any portion of the Property is destroyed or damaged as a result of fire or any other casualty whatsoever, Contributor shall promptly give written notice thereof to Acquirer and Acquirer shall have the right: (i) to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Contributor, whereupon Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit together with all accrued interest to Acquirer, and thereafter neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder except for the Surviving Obligations; or (ii) to proceed with this Agreement and to notify Contributor that, at Acquirers sole option, Contributor either shall: (A) use any available insurance proceeds to restore the Property prior to Closing to its condition as of the Effective Date, and if there are any excess insurance proceeds after completion of such restoration, Contributor shall promptly deposit same in escrow with Escrow Agent and such funds, together with any interest thereon, shall be disbursed to Acquirer at Closing; or (B) in lieu of restoration, prior to Closing, clear the site of debris and deposit all remaining insurance proceeds in escrow with Escrow Agent and such funds, together with interest thereon, shall be disbursed to Acquirer at Closing. All unpaid claims and rights in connection with any such losses shall be assigned to Acquirer at Closing
without in any manner affecting the Consideration. In the event Acquirer elects to proceed under clause (ii)(A) or (ii)(B) above, Contributor shall either expend the deductible amount provided for in such insurance coverage in making such restoration or clearing the Property, as the case may be, or give Acquirer a credit therefore against the Consideration.
14. Brokerage. Acquirer represents to Contributor that Acquirer has engaged the brokerage services of Newmark Grubb Knight Frank (Acquirers Broker) and that Acquirer shall be solely responsible for all fees, costs, commissions and any and all other amounts due and payable to Acquirers Broker, which shall be paid to Acquirers Broker on or before Closing. Contributor represents to Acquirer that Contributor has engaged the brokerage services of Martin Morgades of RBG Realty (Contributors Broker) and that Contributor shall be solely responsible for all fees, costs, commissions and any and all other amounts due and payable to Contributors Broker, which shall be paid to Contributors Broker on or before Closing. Each party represents and warrants to the other that, except for their respective Brokers as specified above, neither has dealt with any broker, agent, finder or other intermediary in connection with this transaction. Acquirer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Contributor harmless from and against the claims of any and all brokers, including the Acquirers Broker, or intermediaries claiming a commission through Acquirer in connection with this sale. Contributor agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Acquirer harmless from and against the claims of any and all brokers, including the Contributors Broker, or intermediaries claiming a commission through Contributor in connection with this sale.
15. Notice. All notices, requests and other communications under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered: (i) in person; or (ii) by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested; or (iii) by recognized overnight delivery service providing positive tracking of items (for example, Federal Express); or (iv) by electronic transmission (so long as one of methods (i), (ii) or (iii) are simultaneously utilized) addressed as follows or at such other address of which Contributor or Acquirer shall have given notice as herein provided:

Contributor does not and will not have additional liability for taxes with respect to any tax return which was required by applicable laws to be filed on or before the Closing Date.

Buyer shall provide Seller with written notice of the Effective Date of this Agreement.
In consideration of the covenants and provisions contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Agreement to Sell and Purchase. Seller agrees to sell to Buyer, and Buyer agrees to purchase from Seller the Property, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. For the purposes of this Agreement, the term Property shall mean and include the following:

(b) All of Sellers right, title and interest in and to all of the personal property attached to or located on or directly used in connection with the operation of the Real Property, including, without limitation, furniture, furnishings, fittings, appliances, machinery and equipment, building materials, operating inventories and supplies; all of which are listed on attached Schedule 1(b), but excluding all personal property used in the administration and delivery of any medical and health services within the Real Property (collectively, the Personal Property).
(c) All of Sellers right, title and interest in and to all leases, contracts and other agreements incident to the operation and management of the Real Property, including, without limitation, management contracts, on-site maintenance contracts, janitorial contracts, and leasing commission agreements; all of which are listed on attached Schedule 1(c) (collectively, the Contract Rights), except to the extent Buyer elects to exclude any such item, pursuant to Section 6(d) of this Agreement.
(d) All of Sellers right, title and interest in and to all financial and other books and records maintained in connection with the operation of the Real Property; all preliminary, final and proposed building plans and specifications relating to the Real Property; and all surveys, structural reviews, grading plans, topographical maps, architectural drawings and engineering, soils, seismic, geologic, environmental, and architectural reports, studies,
certificates, and similar documents relating to the Real Property; all of which are listed on the attached Schedule 1(d) (collectively, the Records and Plans).
(e) All of Sellers right, title and interest in and to all guarantees and warranties relating to the Property and the fixtures and equipment located therein; all of which are listed on the attached Schedule 1(e) (collectively, the Warranties).
(f) All of Sellers right, title and interest in and to all trade names, licenses, permits, certificates of occupancy, approvals, dedications, subdivision maps, and entitlements issued, approved or granted by governmental or quasi-governmental entities or otherwise directly relating to the Property; and any and all appurtenances owned by Seller and in any way relating to or used in connection with the Property; all of which are listed on the attached Schedule 1(f) (collectively, the Licenses and Permits).
2. Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Property is Forty-Six Million Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($46,500,000.00) (the Purchase Price), payable by Buyer as follows:
(a) Two Hundred Fifty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($250,000.00) (the Deposit) by wire transfer payable to First American Title Insurance Company (Escrow Agent), which sum shall be delivered to Escrow Agent within three (3) business days following the Effective Date. The Deposit shall be held in an interest bearing, federally insured account, by Escrow Agent in accordance with the Escrow Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B (the Escrow Agreement) and this Agreement pending consummation of this transaction. Any interest earned on the Deposit shall be paid to Buyer unless Seller shall be entitled to the Deposit by reason of a default by Buyer, in which case such interest shall be paid to Seller. Upon expiration of the Due Diligence Period, if Buyer has not terminated this Agreement as provided herein, the Deposit shall become nonrefundable except in the event of a Seller default. Buyers Federal Tax I.D. Number is 80-0941870; Sellers Federal Tax I.D. Number is 38-3474766.
(b) The balance of the Purchase Price (the Purchase Price minus the Deposit), subject to adjustments pursuant to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, those adjustments set forth in Section 8 of this Agreement, shall be paid to Seller at Closing (as defined below) in cash by wire transfer of immediately available federal funds, or by certified check via the Title Company (as defined below)).
(c) The parties acknowledge and agree that the Purchase Price may exceed the current fair market value (and true cash value) of the physical real estate comprising the Real Property. The Purchase Price specifically reflects the financial impact to Buyer of the income from the Master Lease referenced in Section 6(b).
3. Closing. Closing shall be held on the date that is fifteen (15) days after the later of: (i) expiration date of the Due Diligence Period (as defined below), or (ii) the date upon which title to the Property is acceptable or deemed acceptable to Buyer pursuant to Section 5 below (or on the next business day thereafter if such date is not a business day) (the Closing Date), or on such earlier date as Buyer shall designate by at least five (5) days advance written
notice to Seller. Closing shall be an escrow closing with the Title Company (as defined below) acting as the closing escrow agent (Closing). It is agreed that the time of Closing and the obligation of Seller to deliver the Deed (as defined in Section 6(i) below) to Buyer at Closing are of the essence of this Agreement.
4. Title. From and after the Effective Date, Buyer shall have the right to order a title insurance commitment prepared in accordance with all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement (the Title Commitment).
(a) The Title Commitment shall be prepared in accordance with the current ALTA Form, issued by First American Title Insurance Company Milwaukee Office acceptable to Buyer (the Title Company), agreeing to issue, upon recording of the general warranty deed described in this Agreement, an ALTA owners title insurance policy to Buyer and an ALTA Lenders title insurance policy issued to Buyers lender(s), if applicable, in the amount of the Purchase Price insuring title to the Real Property to be in the condition called for by this Agreement and containing a fifty-year chain-of-title search, a zoning endorsement on ALTA Form 3.1 (with parking), a survey endorsement insuring that the survey accurately depicts the Real Property (including boundaries, improvements, easements and encroachments), a contiguity endorsement, an access endorsement, an endorsement for gap coverage, a location endorsement and an owners comprehensive endorsement, a utility facilities endorsement, and a tax parcel endorsement; each if applicable. Seller shall cause the Title Company at or prior to Closing to down date the Title Commitment to the date and time of the recording of the Deed and provide a title mark-up showing the final form of the title insurance policy (including the above referenced endorsements) to be issued, which mark-up shall obligate the Title Company to issue the final title insurance policy in such form. The title mark-up and final title insurance policy shall be free from the standard requirements and exceptions and shall be subject only to liens, encumbrances or exceptions specifically approved by Buyer (the Permitted Exceptions). A written statement of the obligee of the amount of any lien or encumbrance to be discharged by Seller shall be provided by Seller within ten (10) days after the title evidence is furnished to Buyer. The premium for the title policy and any fees for endorsements or other services provided by the Title Company (other than the mortgagee policy, if any) shall be paid by Buyer on or before Closing.
(b) Title Defects. Within ten (10) days after Buyers receipt of the latter of the Title Commitment or the Survey (as defined in Section 6(g) below), Buyer shall object in writing to any condition of title not satisfactory to Buyer, in Buyers sole discretion (hereinafter referred to as a Title Defect). If any objection is made, Seller shall have until prior to Closing in which to exercise its best efforts to correct such Title Defect. Sellers best efforts requirement in this Section shall, without limitation, obligate Seller to cure any and all Title Defects of an ascertainable monetary value. If the Title Defect cannot be corrected prior to Closing despite Sellers best efforts, or as otherwise extended by agreement of Buyer and Seller, Buyer may, at its option, (a) declare this Agreement null and void and as a result Seller shall return the Deposit together with all accrued interest forthwith to Buyer or (b) elect to accept such title as Seller is able to convey and proceed to Closing. If Buyer fails to notify Seller that Buyer is terminating
this Agreement pursuant to this Section within ten (10) business days after the expiration of the 10-day period, Buyer shall be deemed to have selected option (b) in the previous sentence.
(c) Seller shall transfer to Buyer all of the Personal Property free of all liens and encumbrances. Seller shall, at Sellers sole cost and expense, at least three (3) days prior to Closing, deliver to Buyer documentation from Uniform Commercial Code (U.C.C.) searches confirming that there are no U.C.C. filings against Seller which would be a lien on the Property, including the Personal Property, involved in this transaction. The searches must be dated or updated within fifteen (15) days prior to Closing.
5. Representations and Warranties. Seller represents and warrants that all of Sellers representations and warranties relating to this Agreement are true, correct and complete as of the Effective Date of this Agreement and shall be deemed reaffirmed as true, correct and complete as of Closing. Seller acknowledges that the representations and warranties made in this Agreement by Seller are a material inducement to Buyers entering into this Agreement and purchasing the Property and that Buyer is entitled to rely upon these representations and warranties despite any and all investigation undertaken by Buyer. All of Sellers representations and warranties relating to this Agreement shall survive for 18 months after the Closing of the transactions contemplated herein. Seller hereby indemnifies Buyer for any loss or damage, including, without limitation thereto, reasonable attorneys fees and court costs occurring as a result of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of Seller herein. In addition to any other representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, Seller hereby further represents, warrants and covenants to Buyer as follows:
(a) OHS/UPG Ventures, a Michigan nonprofit corporation (OHS/UPG), an affiliate of Seller, holds fee simple title to the Real Property and Seller has good title to the Personal Property. Seller is a validly organized and duly existing nonprofit corporation organized under the laws of the State of Michigan and has the power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions herein contemplated. Immediately prior to the Closing, as defined above, Seller will acquire fee simple title to the Real Property and good title to the Personal Property, pursuant to the closing on a Real Estate Purchase and Sale Agreement executed by OHS/UPG and Seller. Notwithstanding Sellers immediate purchase and subsequent sale of the Real Property, the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 5 made by Seller shall have the same force and effect as if made by OHS/UPG to Buyer directly.
(b) Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement by Seller, nor the consummation of the sale and conveyance of the Property to Buyer, constitutes or will constitute a violation or breach of the Bylaws of Seller, as the same may have been amended from time to time, or of any agreement or other instrument to which Seller is a party, to which it is subject or by which it is bound.
(c) The execution and delivery of this Agreement have been approved by the members of the Board of Trustees of Seller and no further action is required on the part of Seller to consummate the transaction contemplated hereby.

8. Prorations and Charges.
(a) The Master Tenant, pursuant to the Master Lease, is required to pay all general real estate and personal property taxes for the Property for the year in which the Closing occurs, and, accordingly, such general real estate and personal property taxes shall not be prorated at Closing. In the event Master Tenant is not required to pay any portion or all of the real estate or personal property taxes pursuant to the Master Lease, then such real estate or personal property taxes not paid by Master Tenant shall be prorated through the day before the Closing based on the taxes for the year that the Closing is in, if known, otherwise on the prior years taxes. Seller shall then be responsible for all real estate taxes through the day prior to the Closing. In the event taxes are prorated on the prior years taxes, the parties agree to reprorate taxes when the taxes for the current year are known, and the parties agree to make such payment between themselves to effectuate such reproration. All assessments of any kind (general, special or otherwise) levied or to be levied, if any, for work on site actually commenced or announced (by either a private individual or entity or a governmental entity) prior to Closing shall be paid by Master Tenant, if required pursuant to the Master Lease, or by Seller at or prior to Closing. All other assessments shall be paid by Buyer if this transaction is consummated. Buyer will reasonably cooperate with and assist Seller in administering any post-closing real property tax appeals relating to the Real Property during the Term of the Master Lease.
(b) In addition, the following items shall be paid by Master Tenant, pursuant to the Master Lease, whether incurred before or after Closing, and such items shall not be
prorated at Closing: all utility charges (as applicable), including, but not limited to, sewer, water, electricity, gas, telephone and other private and municipal charges (collectively Utility Charges). Income derived from the Property that is earned as of the day of Closing shall accrue to the benefit of Buyer. In the event Master Tenant is not required to pay any portion or all of the Utility Charges pursuant to the Master Lease, then each of the Utility Charges not paid by Master Tenant shall be prorated through the day before Closing and shown as a credit to Buyer on the Closing Statement, as applicable. Seller shall be responsible for obtaining all necessary billing information for each of the Utility Charges not paid by Master Tenant in order to accurately reflect the same on the Closing Statement.
(c) At Closing, Seller shall pay to Buyer any and all funds paid to Seller by tenants in the Property on account of additional rent items not yet due and payable by Seller, such as tax and insurance escrows. Seller shall make such payment in the form of a credit against the Purchase Price in favor of Buyer.
(d) Seller shall pay all transfer taxes associated with the conveyance of the Property and all recording fees customarily paid by Sellers in the locality where the Property is located. Buyer shall be responsible for the payment of title fees and premiums associated with the Title Policy (and mortgagee policy, if any). All other closing expenses shall be allocated between the parties in the customary manner for sales of real property in the locality where the Property is located. Each party is responsible for paying its own respective attorneys fees incurred in negotiating, preparing and closing the transaction contemplated by this Agreement.
(e) All rights, privileges, income, rents, liabilities, obligations, expenses and costs relating to the assignment and transfer of the Contract Rights, Records and Plans, Warranties and Licenses and Permits shall be paid by Seller at Closing.
(f) Any and all other normal, on-going operating expenses attributable to the Property, whether incurred before or after Closing, except to the extent any of the same relate to the Contract Rights excluded from the Property pursuant to Section 6(d) of this Agreement, shall be paid by Master Tenant, pursuant to the Master Lease. In the event Master Tenant is not required to pay such on-going operating expenses pursuant to the Master Lease, then such normal on-going operating expenses attributable to the Property, except to the extent any of the same relate to the Contract Rights excluded from the Property pursuant to Section 6(d) of this Agreement, shall be prorated between the parties through the day before Closing.
(g) To the extent any of the foregoing payments and prorations are not required to be paid by Master Tenant pursuant to the Master Lease, then within ninety (90) days after the Closing, Buyer and Seller shall reconcile such payments and prorations based on actual bills or invoices received after the Closing, but only if the prorations or payments were based on an estimate and not actual current bills or invoices. In the event that any item of income, charge, or expense cannot be reconciled accurately within such 90-day period, the Buyer and Seller hereby agree to delay such reconciliation until a date when it can be accurately completed. Any party owing to the other party any amount ascertained by the required reconciliations shall promptly, but in no event later than fifteen (15) business days after the date of the applicable
reconciliation, pay the other party such amount. The obligations set forth in this Section 8(g) shall survive Closing.
As applicable, all of the foregoing items set forth in this Section 8, unless otherwise expressly stated, shall be prorated between the parties as of midnight of the day before Closing.
9. Condemnation; Rezoning, Historic Designation. Seller represents and warrants that Seller has not heretofore received any notice of any eminent domain or condemnation proceeding in connection with the Property. If prior to Closing any such eminent domain or condemnation proceeding is commenced or any change is made, or proposed to be made to: (i) any portion or all of the Property; (ii) the current means of ingress and egress to the Property; or (iii) to the roads or driveways adjoining the Property, Seller agrees immediately to notify Buyer in writing thereof. Buyer then shall have the right, at Buyers option, to terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Seller prior to Closing. If Buyer elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the terms set forth in this Section 9, then the Deposit shall be immediately returned to Buyer together with all accrued interest, Buyer and Seller shall be released from any further liability hereunder and this Agreement shall be null and void. If Buyer does not so terminate this Agreement, Buyer shall proceed to Closing hereunder as if no such proceeding had commenced and will pay Seller the full Purchase Price in accordance with this Agreement, and Seller shall assign to Buyer all of its right, title and interest in and to any compensation for such condemnation. Seller shall not negotiate or settle any claims for compensation prior to Closing, and Buyer shall have the sole right (in the name of Buyer or Seller or both) to negotiate for, to agree to, and to contest all offers and awards.
If, prior to closing, there is a designation of the Real Property (and/or any improvement located thereon) or any portion thereof as a historic structure or other historic designation, or is threatened, commenced or finalized, or there is a threatened, commenced or finalized rezoning of the Real Property, Seller shall promptly notify Buyer, and Buyer may elect to terminate this Agreement prior to Closing, in which event the Deposit and all accrued interest thereon shall be returned forthwith to Buyer, Buyer and Seller shall be released from any further liability hereunder and this Agreement shall be null and void. If Buyer does not elect to terminate this Agreement, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and at Closing Seller shall assign to Buyer all Sellers right, title and interest in and to any dollars paid by the governmental authority (if any) in connection with the rezoning of the Real Property or historic designation.
10. Default by Buyer. If Buyer, without the right to do so and in default of its obligations hereunder, fails to complete Closing as to the Property, the Deposit and all accrued interest shall be paid to Seller. Such payment of the Deposit and all accrued interest to Seller shall be deemed to be liquidated damages for Buyers default and the receipt of same shall be Sellers exclusive and sole remedy; and Seller hereby waives any right to recover the balance of the Purchase Price, or any part thereof, and the right to pursue any other remedy permitted at law or in equity against Buyer. The parties agree that it would be impracticable and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual damages suffered by Seller as a result of Buyers failure to complete the purchase of the Property pursuant to this Agreement, and that under the circumstances existing as of the date of this Agreement, the liquidated damages provided for in
this Section represent a reasonable estimate of the damages which Seller will incur as a result of such failure. The parties acknowledge that the payment of such liquidated damages is not intended as a forfeiture or penalty under any legal or equitable theory, but is intended to constitute liquidated damages to Seller.
11. Default by Seller. If Seller a) defaults in the performance of any obligation contained in this Agreement, and fails to cure such default within ten (10) days after receiving written notice of such default from Buyer; or b) without the right to do so and in default of its obligations hereunder, fails to complete Closing, the Deposit and all accrued interest shall be returned to Buyer, and Seller shall reimburse Buyer for all of Buyers reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in connection with the transaction contemplated by this Agreement, not to exceed $50,000. Alternatively, Buyer may exercise any remedies available to it at law or in equity, including, but not limited to, specific performance. Seller waives the right to assert the defense of lack of mutuality in any action for specific performance instituted by Buyer.
12. Risk of Loss. Seller shall bear the risk of all loss or damage to the Property from all causes until Closing. Seller represents that it has, and will maintain pending Closing, a policy of fire and extended coverage insurance in at least the full amount of the replacement cost of all buildings and improvements located on the Property. Seller will cause the insurer to add Buyers name to the policy as an additional insured, as its interest may appear. Seller will deliver to Buyer within five (5) days after the Effective Date a certificate issued by such insurer evidencing that such policy is in effect, that it will not be canceled without at least thirty (30) days prior notice to Buyer and that Buyer has been named as an additional named insured thereunder. If at any time prior to Closing any portion of the Property is destroyed or damaged as a result of fire or any other casualty whatsoever, Seller shall promptly give written notice thereof to Buyer and Buyer shall have the right: (i) to terminate this Agreement by written notice to Seller, whereupon Escrow Agent shall return the Deposit (with any accrued interest) to Buyer, and thereafter this Agreement shall be void and neither party shall have any further rights or obligations hereunder; or (ii) to proceed with this Agreement and to notify Seller that, at Buyers sole option, Seller either shall: (A) use any available insurance proceeds to restore the Property prior to Closing to its condition as of the Effective Date, and if there are any excess insurance proceeds after completion of such restoration, Seller shall promptly deposit same in escrow with Escrow Agent and such funds, together with any interest thereon, shall be disbursed to Buyer at Closing; or (B) in lieu of restoration, prior to Closing, clear the site of debris and deposit all remaining insurance proceeds in escrow with Escrow Agent and such funds, together with interest thereon, shall be disbursed to Buyer at Closing. All unpaid claims and rights in connection with any such losses shall be assigned to Buyer at Closing without in any manner affecting the Purchase Price. In the event Buyer elects to proceed under clause (ii)(A) or (ii)(B) above, Seller shall either expend the deductible amount provided for in such insurance coverage in making such restoration or clearing the Property, as the case may be, or give Buyer a credit therefore against the Purchase Price.
13. Brokerage. Seller represents to Buyer that Seller has engaged the brokerage services of Newmark Grubb Knight Frank (Broker) and that Seller shall be solely responsible for all fees, costs, commissions and any and all other amounts due and payable to Broker, which
shall be paid to Broker on or before Closing. Buyer represents and warrants to Seller and Seller represents and warrants to Buyer that, except for Broker, neither has dealt with any broker, agent, finder or other intermediary in connection with this sale and purchase. Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Buyer harmless from and against the claims of any and all brokers, including the Broker, or intermediaries claiming a commission in connection with this sale. Buyer agrees to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any brokers claim arising from any breach by Buyer of Buyers representation and warranty in this Section 13.
14. Operation of the Property Prior to Closing. Prior to Closing:
(a) Seller shall operate, manage and maintain the Property in a reasonable, professional and prudent manner, and keep the same in good condition at all times. Without expense to Buyer, Seller shall make all repairs and replacements (structural and non-structural, ordinary and extraordinary) so that the Property is maintained in its present condition, reasonable wear and tear excepted.
(b) Upon reasonable prior notice, Buyer, its accountants, architects, attorneys, engineers, contractors and other representatives shall be afforded access to: (i) the Property to inspect, measure, appraise, test and make surveys of the Property, including, but not limited to, all activities necessary to satisfy the contingencies set forth in this Section 14 and elsewhere in this Agreement; and (ii) all books, records and files relating to the Property (but not the medical and health care operations within the Property). Buyer shall have the right, at Buyers expense, to make copies of all such books and records directly relating to the Property, including, without limitation, all books and records relating to increases in real estate taxes, building and operations maintenance costs; provided, however, that Buyer shall return all copies of such books and records if Closing does not occur under this Agreement. Buyer shall not interfere unreasonably with the operation of the Property and shall restore any area on the Property disturbed in the course of Buyers testing to the conditions existing prior to any tests conducted by Buyer.
(c) Seller shall comply with all of the obligations of landlord under the leases and all other agreements and contractual arrangements affecting the Property by which Seller is bound.
(d) Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of Sellers receipt of any notice from any party alleging that Seller is in default of its obligations under any of the leases or any permit or agreement affecting the Property, or any portion or portions thereof.

(a) Seller agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Buyer and its officers, agents, employees, and tenants from and against, and to reimburse Buyer with respect to any and all claims, demands, causes of action, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including attorneys fees and court costs) asserted against or incurred by Buyer by reason of or arising out of: (a) a breach of any representation or warranty of Seller set forth in this Agreement; (b) the failure of Seller to perform any obligation required by this Agreement to be performed by it; and (c) the ownership, maintenance, operation, management and use of the Property prior to Closing, including without limitation any payment or nonpayment on account of the operating expenses for the Property by the tenants under any leases.
(b) Buyer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its officers, agents, employees, and tenants from and against, and to reimburse Seller with respect to any and all claims, demands, causes of action, losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including attorneys fees and court costs) asserted against or incurred by Seller by reason of or arising out of: (a) a breach of any representation or warranty of Buyer set forth in this Agreement; (b) the failure of Buyer to perform any obligation required by this Agreement to be performed by it; (c) the ownership, maintenance, operation, management and use of the Property after Closing; and (d) Buyers access to the Property for the purpose of making such investigations, inspections, tests, assessments, surveys and the like in accordance with Section 6 of this Agreement.
17. Further Assurances. After Closing, at Buyers sole cost and expense, Seller shall execute, acknowledge and deliver, for no further consideration, all assignments, transfers, deeds and other documents as Buyer may reasonably request to vest in Buyer and perfect Buyers right, title and interest in and to the Property.
18. Like Kind Exchanges. Buyer or Seller may elect to exchange the Property for other real estate of a like kind in accordance with Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as amended (the Code). To the extent possible, the provisions of this Section shall be interpreted consistently with this intent. To exercise any rights under this Section, the party electing to exchange the Property shall provide the other with a written statement stating its intent to enter into an exchange at least five days prior to Closing. Either partys election to exchange, rather than sell or buy, the Property for other real estate of a like kind shall be at no cost or liability to the other.
19. Miscellaneous.
(a) All of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, all covenants, agreements and indemnities made herein, and all obligations to be performed under the provisions of this Agreement shall survive Closing.
(b) This Agreement shall be void and of no force or effect if not executed by Seller and delivered to Buyer or Buyers attorney within seven (7) business days after execution by Buyer and delivery to Seller.
(c) The captions or headings in this Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and in no way define, describe or limit the scope or intent of this Agreement or any of the provisions hereof.
(d) Buyer shall have the right to assign this Agreement, and upon notice from Buyer, Seller agrees to convey the Property directly to Buyers assignee provided that Buyer and/or assignee have fulfilled all Buyers obligations under this Agreement. Seller shall not assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of Buyer. Any assignment of this Agreement by Seller without Buyers prior written consent shall be null and void, and of no force or effect.
(e) This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns.
(f) This Agreement, including the exhibits attached hereto, contains the entire agreement as to the Property between Seller and Buyer; and there are no other terms, obligations, covenants, representations, statements or conditions, oral or otherwise, of any kind whatsoever concerning this sale and purchase. This Agreement shall not be altered, amended, changed or modified except in writing executed by the parties hereto.
(g) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Michigan, without giving effect to its conflicts of laws provisions.
(h) All parties to this Agreement having participated fully and equally in the negotiation and preparation hereof, this Agreement shall not be more strictly construed, or any ambiguities within this Agreement resolved, against either party hereto. It is the intent of Buyer and Seller that this Agreement be binding on both parties and not illusory. Thus, wherever this Agreement grants Buyer or Seller discretion, which might otherwise make this Agreement illusory, the party exercising its discretion must act reasonably according to commercial standards.
(i) Subject to any tenants rights to the Property, including under the Master Lease and the Surgery Center Lease, Seller shall deliver possession of the Property to Buyer at Closing.
(j) Time is of the essence of this Agreement and Buyer and Seller hereby agree that the times provided for in this contract are reasonable times for each party to complete its respective obligations. If any of the times provided for in this Agreement fall on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, said times shall automatically extend to the next full business day.
(k) This Agreement may be executed or amended in counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument. The parties may exchange executed counterparts via electronic transmission, including e-mail.
(l) If any of the terms or conditions contained herein shall be declared to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then the remaining provisions and conditions of this Agreement, or the application of such to persons or circumstances other than those to which it is declared invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby and shall remain in full force and effect and shall be valid and enforceable to the full extent permitted by law.
(m) After the Closing, at the request of Buyer and at Buyers expense, Seller shall make available to Buyer the historical financial information in Sellers possession regarding the operation of the Property to the extent required by Buyer in order to prepare stand-alone audited financial statements for such operations in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, as of the end of fiscal year 2013, and any required subsequent date or period, and to cooperate (at Buyers expense) with Buyer and any auditor engaged by Buyer for such purpose.
20. Disclosure. No party may make public disclosure with respect to this transaction before the Closing except:
(a) as may be required by law, including without limitation disclosure required under securities laws, or by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or by the rules of any stock exchange;
(b) to such title insurance companies, lenders, attorneys, accountants, partners, directors, officers, employees and representatives of any party or of such partys advisors who need to know such information for the purpose of evaluating and consummating the transaction, including the financing of the transaction; and
(c) to present or prospective sources of financing.
21. Cooperation with S-X 3-14 Audit. The Seller acknowledges that it is Buyers intention that the ultimate acquirer of the Property will be affiliated with a publicly registered company (Registered Company). The Seller acknowledges that it has been advised that if such acquirer is affiliated with a Registered Company, such Registered Company (and such acquirer) are required to make certain filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC Filings) that relate to the most recent pre-acquisition fiscal year (the Audited Year) and the current fiscal year through the date of acquisition (the Stub Period) for the Property. To assist Buyer and Registered Company in preparing the SEC Filings, the Seller covenants and
agrees no later than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall provide Buyer and the Registered Company with the following information (to the extent such items are required for the SEC Filings and are not duplicative of items contained in the Disclosure Materials): (i) access to bank statements for the Audited Year and Stub Period; (ii) rent roll as of the end of the Audited Year and Stub Period; (iii) operating statements for the Audited Year and Stub Period; (iv) access to the general ledger for the Audited Year and Stub Period; (v) cash receipts schedule for each month in the Audited Year and Stub Period; (vi) access to invoice for expenses and capital improvements in the Audited Year and Stub Period; (vii) accounts payable ledger and accrued expense reconciliations; (viii) check register for the 3-months following the Audited Year and Stub Period; (ix) all leases and 5-year lease schedules; (x) copies of all insurance documentation for the Audited Year and Stub Period and (xi) copies of accounts receivable aging as of the end of the Audited Year and Stub Period along with an explanation for all accounts over 30 days past due as of the end of the Audited Year and Stub Period. In addition, no later than thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Seller shall provide to Buyer: (1) signed representation letter in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit F; (2) a signed audit request letter in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit G; and (3) a signed audit response letter from Sellers attorney in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit H. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, Seller will not make any information disclosures to Buyer that would be in violation of HIPAA or other laws relating to privacy and confidentiality of health care information.
