(1)  This hospital is owned and operated in a joint venture with physicians in which Capella owns 90.25% and physicians or physician entities own the remaining 9.75%.
(2)  The closing of the sale leaseback transaction for this property (as described below in text) is pending subject to customary state regulatory approval.
(3)  This hospital is subject to long-term ground lease.
(4)  This hospital is owned and operated in a joint venture with physicians in which Capella owns 98.56% and physicians or physician entities own the remaining 1.44%.
(5)  This hospital is owned and operated in a joint venture with physicians in which Capella owns 95.04% and physicians or physician entities own the remaining 4.96%.

Merger, acquisition loan and equity contribution

In conjunction with the acquisition, MPT Camaro Opco, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of MPT Development Services, Inc., our taxable REIT subsidiary, formed a joint venture limited liability company, Capella Health Holdings, LLC (“Capella Holdings”), with an entity affiliated with the current senior management of Capella (“ManageCo”). MPT Camaro Opco, LLC holds 49% of the equity interests in Capella Holdings and the ManageCo holds the remaining 51%. Pursuant to the terms of the previously announced merger agreement dated July 21, 2015, among Capella Holdings, a merger subsidiary of Capella Holdings, Capella and GTCR Fund VIII, L.P. (solely in its capacity as representative of the stockholders and optionholders of Capella), at closing the merger subsidiary merged with and into Capella, with Capella surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Capella Holdings, in exchange for cash merger consideration to the former owners of Capella in the amount of approximately $900 million.

To help fund Capella Holding’s payment of the merger consideration and transaction expenses, MPT Camaro Opco, LLC made an equity contribution and acquisition loan in the aggregate amount of approximately $900 million. The loan has a 15-year term and bears interest at a rate equal to the initial rate we receive under the sale-leaseback and mortgage loan transactions described below.

Real estate acquisition and mortgage loan financing

Promptly upon closing of the merger transaction described above, subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership acquired Capella’s interests in the real estate of four of its acute care hospitals (and will acquire a fifth hospital pending receipt of customary state regulatory approvals), for an aggregate purchase price of $390 million. Each of the facilities we acquired were simultaneously leased back to subsidiaries of Capella. In addition, we made mortgage loans to Capella in an aggregate amount of $210 million, secured by a first lien mortgage in Capella’s interests in its two remaining hospitals. The aggregate purchase price for the facilities we acquired and the aggregate mortgage loan proceeds for the remaining facilities were credited and offset against the principal outstanding balance of the acquisition loan.

The real estate leases and mortgage loans have substantially similar 15-year terms with four 5-year extension options, plus consumer price-indexed increases, limited to a 4% ceiling annually. The initial GAAP yield under the lease and mortgage loans is approximately 9.1%.

Management of Capella

Beginning on August 31, 2015, Capella and its operating subsidiaries will be managed and operated by ManageCo pursuant to the terms of one or more management agreements, the terms of which include base management fees payable to ManageCo and incentive payments tied to agreed benchmarks. Pursuant to the limited liability company agreement of Capella Holdings, ManageCo and MPT Camaro Opco, LLC will share profits and distributions from Capella Holdings according to a distribution waterfall under which, if certain benchmarks are met, after taking into account interest paid on the acquisition loan, ManageCo and MPT Camaro Opco, LLC will share in cash generated by Capella Holdings in a ratio of 35% to ManageCo and 65% to MPT Camaro Opco, LLC. The limited liability company agreement provides that ManageCo will manage Capella Holdings and MPT Camaro Opco, LLC will have no management authority or control except for certain protective rights consistent with a passive ownership interest, such as a limited right to approve certain components of the annual budgets and the right to approve extraordinary transactions.
