PART I
ITEM 1.
BUSINESS
GENERAL
Unless otherwise specified, information regarding Meditrust's business is
given as of December 31, 1996.
Meditrust (the "Company"), a real estate investment trust organized on
August 6, 1985, invests primarily in the health care industry in locations
throughout the United States and also invests in other entities which invest in
similar facilities outside of the United States. The objective of the Company is
to enable shareholders to participate in the investment in health care related
facilities held primarily for the production of income to be distributed to
shareholders. In meeting this objective, the Company invests in high quality
facilities that are managed by experienced operators and achieves diversity in
its property portfolio by sector of the health care industry, geographic
location, operator and form of investment.
The Company was organized to qualify, and intends to continue to operate,
as a real estate investment trust in accordance with federal tax laws and
regulations. So long as the Company so complies, with limited exceptions, the
Company will not be taxed under federal income tax laws on that portion of its
taxable income that it distributes to its shareholders. The Company has
distributed, and intends to continue to distribute, substantially all of its
real estate investment trust taxable income to shareholders.
As of December 31, 1996, the Company had investments in 408 facilities,
consisting of 274 long-term care facilities, 84 retirement and assisted living
facilities, 26 rehabilitation hospitals, 17 medical office buildings, six
alcohol and substance abuse and psychiatric facilities, and one acute care
hospital campus. Included in the 408 facilities are 42 properties under
construction which are expected to be completed during the next 12 to 18 months.
The Company's investments take the form of permanent mortgage loans,
sale/leaseback transactions and development projects. Generally, the Company
enters into development projects where, upon completion of the facility, the
Company's development funding is to be replaced by either a permanent mortgage
loan or a sale/leaseback transaction with the Company.
The Company's net increase in gross real estate investments totaled
$431,158,000 during 1996 as a result of the Company entering into sale/leaseback
transactions and making permanent mortgage loans and providing development
financing. Total gross investments were $2,286,160,000 at December 31, 1996.
SALE/LEASEBACK TRANSACTIONS. The Company acquired 45 assisted living
facilities in California, Florida, Idaho, Kansas, Massachusetts, Oklahoma,
Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Washington and Wisconsin and 13 long-term
care facilities in Florida, Indiana, New Hampshire, New Jersey and Ohio for
$243,034,000. The Company also provided net funding of $82,755,000 for the
construction of 21 assisted living facilities in Arkansas, Florida, Idaho,
Kansas, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and
Washington and one medical office building in Florida. In addition, the Company
received proceeds of $4,701,000 from the sale of one rehabilitation facility in
New York.

<PAGE> 3
PERMANENT MORTGAGE LOANS. During 1996, the Company provided permanent
mortgage financing of $137,686,000 for 29 long-term care facilities located in
California, Colorado, Idaho, Missouri, New Mexico, New York, Rhode Island and
Washington; 11 assisted living facilities located in Michigan, Ohio and
Wisconsin and one retirement living facility located in North Carolina.
The Company also funded $9,903,000 of increases to existing permanent
mortgage financing secured by eight long-term care facilities located in
Connecticut, Indiana, Massachusetts, Nevada and Washington and one assisted
living facility in Michigan.
DEVELOPMENT FINANCING. During 1996, the Company provided new construction
financing of $59,862,000 relating to five long-term care facilities in Florida,
Idaho, Massachusetts, Nevada and New Jersey; four assisted living facilities in
Indiana and Michigan; and five medical office buildings in Arizona, Florida and
Texas. The Company also provided $57,633,000 for on-going construction of
facilities already in development prior to 1996.
OTHER TRANSACTIONS. During the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company
received principal payments on real estate mortgages of $33,962,000 and received
$128,285,000 in mortgage prepayments for 21 facilities located in Arizona,
Connecticut, Michigan, New Jersey, North Carolina and Pennsylvania.
CONVERSION OF DEVELOPMENT FINANCING TO SALE/LEASEBACK TRANSACTIONS. During
1996, the Company provided development financing and completed construction of
three assisted living facilities in Florida for $7,676,000.
CONVERSION OF DEVELOPMENT FINANCING TO PERMANENT MORTGAGE LOANS. During
1996, the Company provided on-going development financing of $27,136,000, which
resulted in the completion of construction of three long-term care facilities in
Idaho and Massachusetts and eight medical office buildings in Connecticut and
Florida. Total aggregate funding of these projects was $96,099,000.
OTHER INVESTMENTS. On July 25, 1996, the Company invested approximately
$13,509,000 in exchange for 7,936,000 shares of common stock, representing a
19.99% interest in Nursing Home Properties Plc (NHP Plc), a property investment
group which specializes in the financing, through sale and leaseback
transactions, of nursing homes located in the United Kingdom. The Company does
not have the right to vote more than 9.99% of the shares of NHP Plc. As of
December 31, 1996, NHP Plc had invested or committed to invest approximately
$163,000,000 in 52 nursing homes, totaling 2,923 beds.
As of December 31, 1996 the market value of this investment was $16,037,000
and is included in other assets in the Company's financial statements. The
resulting difference between the current market value and cost, $2,528,000, is
included in shareholders' equity in the Company's financial statements.
CAPITAL RAISING TRANSACTIONS. On January 16, 1996, the Company issued an
unsecured note in the aggregate principal amount of $20 million which matures in
January 2006 and bears interest at the annual rate of 7.3%.
During February 1996, the Company completed the sale of 9,200,000 Shares at
$34.00 per Share. The net proceeds to the Company from this offering were used
to repay short-term borrowings and for investments in additional health care
facilities.
-3-
<PAGE> 4
On September 10, 1996, the Company completed the sale of $175,000,000 of
7.82% notes due September 10, 2026. The notes include a put feature which gives
each noteholder the right to redeem the notes at par on September 10, 2003. The
net proceeds from the issuance of these securities were utilized to repay the
outstanding balance of the Company's unsecured credit facilities and for
investments in additional health care facilities.
During the twelve months ended December 31, 1996, $3,416,000 of principal
amount of 9% convertible debentures were converted into 126,507 Shares and
$12,550,000 of principal amount of 7% convertible debentures were converted into
409,787 Shares.
The Company has a total of $280,000,000 in unsecured credit facilities
consisting of unsecured revolving lines ("Lines") of credit. Both Lines bear
interest at the lender's prime rate or LIBOR plus .875%. One of the Lines
totaling $230,000,000 expires September 23, 1999 and the other, totaling
$50,000,000, expires December 12, 1999. A total of approximately $259,000,000
was available under the Company's Lines at January 27, 1997.
The Company believes that its various sources of capital are adequate to
finance its operations as well as pending property acquisitions, mortgage
financings and future dividends. During 1997, as the Company identifies
appropriate investment opportunities, the Company may raise additional capital
through the sale of Shares or Preferred Shares, by the issuance of additional
long-term debt or through a securitization transaction.

INVESTMENT AND OTHER POLICIES
GENERAL
The Company invests in income-producing health care related facilities
which may include long-term care facilities, rehabilitation hospitals,
retirement and assisted living facilities, medical office buildings, alcohol and
substance abuse treatment facilities, psychiatric hospitals, and other health
care related facilities. The Company also invests in other entities which invest
in similar facilities outside the United States. These investments are made
primarily for the production of income. Because the Company invests in health
care related facilities, the Company is not in a position to diversify its
investment portfolio to include assets selected to reduce the risks associated
with investment in improved real estate in a single industry. The Company
intends to continue to diversify its portfolio by broadening its geographic
base, providing financing to more operators, diversifying the type of health
care facilities in its portfolio and diversifying the types of financing methods
provided.
In evaluating potential investments, the Company considers such factors as:
(1) the current and anticipated cash flow and its adequacy to meet operational
needs and other obligations and to provide a competitive market return on equity
to the Company's shareholders; (2) the geographic area, type of property and
demographic profile; (3) the location, construction quality, condition and
design of the property; (4) the potential for capital appreciation, if any; (5)
the growth and regulatory environment of the communities in which the properties
are located; (6) occupancy and demand for similar health care facilities in the
same or nearby communities; (7) an adequate mix of private and
government-sponsored patients; (8) potential alternative uses of the facilities;
and (9) prospects of liquidity through financing or refinancing.
Management reviews and verifies market research for all potential
investments on behalf of the Company. Management also reviews the value of the
property, the interest rates and debt service coverage requirements of any debt
to be assumed and the anticipated sources of repayment for such debt.
The Company's Declaration of Trust places no limitations on the percentage
of the Company's total assets that may be invested in any one property or joint
venture or on the nature or identity of the operators of such properties. The
independent Trustees of the Company, however, may establish such limitations as
they deem appropriate from time to time.
From time to time, the Company enters into senior debt transactions. The
Company has no current plans to underwrite securities of other issuers. The
Company has authority to offer Shares in exchange for investments which conform
to its standards and to repurchase or otherwise acquire its Shares or other
securities. The Company has no present plans to invest in the securities of
others for the purpose of exercising control, although the Company owns
interests in partnerships which own health care facilities and a property
investment group in the United Kingdom which invests in health care facilities.
The Company makes loans on such terms as the Trustees may approve.
The Company will not, without the prior approval of a majority of Trustees,
including a majority of the independent Trustees of the Company, acquire from or
sell to any Trustee, director, officer or employee of the Company, or any
affiliate thereof, any of the assets or other property of the Company.
The Company provides its shareholders on request with annual reports
containing audited financial statements and quarterly reports containing
unaudited financial information.
-5-
<PAGE> 6
REINVESTMENT OF SALES PROCEEDS
In the event the Company sells or otherwise disposes of any of its
properties, the independent Trustees will determine whether and to what extent
the Company will acquire additional properties or distribute the proceeds to the
shareholders.
SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS
The Company invests its cash in certain short-term investments during
interim periods between the receipt of revenues and distributions to
shareholders. Cash not invested in facilities may be invested in
interest-bearing bank accounts, certificates of deposit, short-term money-market
securities, short-term United States government securities, mortgage-backed
securities guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association, mortgages
insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Veterans
Administration, mortgage loans, mortgage loan participations, and certain other
similar investments. The Company's ability to make certain of these investments
may be limited by the Company's borrowing agreements and by tax considerations.
The Company's return on these short-term investments may be more or less than
its return on real estate investments.
BORROWING POLICIES
The Company may incur additional indebtedness when, in the opinion of the
Trustees, it is advisable. For short-term purposes, the Company may, from time
to time, negotiate lines of credit, arrange for other short-term borrowings from
banks or others or issue commercial paper. The Company may arrange for long-term
borrowing from banks, insurance companies, public offerings or private
placements to institutional investors. Under the Company's Declaration of Trust
and under documents pertaining to certain existing indebtedness, the Company is
subject to various restrictions with respect to borrowings. See "Prohibited
Investments and Activities."
In addition, the Company may incur mortgage indebtedness on real estate
which it has acquired through purchase, foreclosure or otherwise. When terms are
deemed favorable, the Company may invest in properties subject to existing loans
or mortgages. The Company also may obtain financing for unleveraged properties
in which it has invested or may refinance properties acquired on a leveraged
basis. There is no limitation on the number or amount of mortgages which may be
placed on any one property, but overall restrictions on mortgage indebtedness
are provided under documents pertaining to certain existing indebtedness.
PROHIBITED INVESTMENTS AND ACTIVITIES
The Declaration of Trust prohibits the Company from engaging in any
investment practices or activities that would disqualify the Company as a real
estate investment trust under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
In addition to prohibitions and restrictions imposed by the Declaration of
Trust, there are and may be, from time to time, additional restrictions imposed
by debt instruments or other agreements entered into by the Company.
-6-
<PAGE> 7
POLICY CHANGES
The Declaration of Trust may not be changed by the Trustees without
shareholder approval except in limited circumstances to comply with federal and
state law. All other policies set forth herein may be changed by the Trustees
without shareholder approval.
COMPETITION
The Company competes, primarily on the basis of knowledge of the industry,
economics of the transaction and flexibility of financing structure, with real
estate partnerships, other real estate investment trusts, banks and other
investors generally in the acquisition, leasing and financing of health care
related facilities.
The operators of the facilities compete on a local and regional basis with
other operators of comparable facilities. They compete with independent
operators as well as companies managing multiple facilities, some of which are
substantially larger and have greater resources than the operators of the
Company's facilities. Some of these facilities are operated for profit while
others are owned by governmental agencies or tax-exempt not-for-profit
organizations.
EMPLOYEES
As of December 31, 1996, the operations of the Company were maintained by
40 employees. The Company has not experienced any significant labor problems and
believes that its employee relations are good.
DECLARATION OF TRUST
The Declaration of Trust of the Company provides that shareholders of the
Company shall not be subject to any liability for the acts or obligations of the
Company and that, as far as is practicable, each written agreement of the
Company is to contain a provision to that effect. No personal liability will
attach to the shareholders for claims under any contract containing such a
provision in writing where adequate notice is given of such provision, except
possibly in a few jurisdictions. With respect to all types of claims in such
jurisdictions and with respect to tort claims, contract claims where the
shareholder liability is not disavowed as described above, claims for taxes and
certain statutory liabilities in other jurisdictions, a shareholder may be held
personally liable to the extent that claims are not satisfied by the Company.
However, the Declaration of Trust provides that, upon payment of any such
liability, the shareholder will be entitled to reimbursement from the general
assets of the Company. The Trustees intend to conduct the operations of the
Company, with the advice of counsel, in such a way as to avoid, as far as is
practicable, the ultimate liability of the shareholders of the Company. The
Trustees do not intend to provide insurance covering such risks to the
shareholders.
GOVERNMENT REGULATION
The Company recognizes a portion of revenue from percentage, supplemental
and/or additional rent or interest. This revenue can be a contractual amount or
be based on the health care facility operator's gross revenues, which, in most
cases, is subject to changes in the reimbursement and licensure policies of
federal, state and local governments. In addition, the acquisition of health
care facilities is generally subject to state and local regulatory approval.
-7-
<PAGE> 8
MEDICARE, MEDICAID, BLUE CROSS AND OTHER PAYORS
Certain of the operators receive payments for patient care from federal
Medicare programs for elderly and disabled patients, state Medicaid programs for
medically indigent and cash grant patients, private insurance carriers,
employers and Blue Cross plans, health maintenance organizations, preferred
provider organizations and directly from patients. In general, Medicare payments
for long-term care services, psychiatric care, and rehabilitative care are based
on allowable costs plus a return on equity for proprietary facilities. Payments
from state Medicaid programs for psychiatric care are based on reasonable costs
or are at fixed rates. Long-term care facilities are generally paid by the
Medicaid programs at fixed rates. Most Medicare and Medicaid payments are below
retail rates. Payments from other payors are generally also below retail rates.
Blue Cross payments in different states and areas are based on costs, negotiated
rates or retail rates.
LONG-TERM CARE FACILITIES
Regulation of long-term care facilities is exercised primarily through the
licensing of such facilities. The particular agency having regulatory authority
and the license qualification standards vary from state to state and, in some
instances, from locality to locality. Licensure standards are constantly under
review and undergo periodic revision. Governmental authorities generally have
the power to review the character, competence and community standing of the
operator and the financial resources and adequacy of the facility, including its
plant, equipment, personnel and standards of medical care. Long-term care
facilities are certified under the Medicare program and all are eligible to
qualify under state Medicaid programs, although not all participate in the
Medicaid programs.
REHABILITATION HOSPITALS
Rehabilitation hospitals are also subject to extensive federal, state and
local legislation and regulation. Rehabilitation hospitals are subject to
periodic inspections and licensure requirements. Inpatient rehabilitation
facilities are cost-reimbursed, receiving the lower of reasonable costs or
reasonable charges. Typically, the fiscal intermediary pays a set rate per day
based on the prior year's costs for each facility. Annual cost reports are filed
with the operator's fiscal intermediary and adjustments are made, if necessary.
MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDINGS
The individual physicians, groups of physicians and health care providers
which occupy medical office buildings are subject to a variety of federal, state
and local regulations applicable to their specific areas of practice. Since
medical office buildings may contain numerous types of medical services, a wide
variety of regulations may apply. In addition, medical office buildings must
comply with the requirements of municipal building codes, health codes and local
fire departments.
ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS
Acute care hospitals are subject to extensive federal, state and local
legislation and regulation relating to among other things the adequacy of
medical care, equipment, personnel, hygiene, operating policies and procedures,
fire prevention, rate-setting and compliance with building codes and
environmental protection laws. Hospitals must maintain strict standards in order
to obtain their state hospital licenses from a department of health or other
applicable agency in each state. In granting and renewing licenses, a department
of health considers, among other things, the physical buildings and
-8-
<PAGE> 9
equipment, the qualifications of the administrative personnel and nursing staff,
the quality of care and continuing compliance with the laws and regulations
relating to the operation of the facilities. State licensing of facilities is a
prerequisite to certification under the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Various
other licenses and permits also are required in order to dispense narcotics,
operate pharmacies, handle radioactive materials and operate certain equipment.
Hospital facilities are subject to periodic inspection by governmental and other
authorities to assure continued compliance with the various standards necessary
for their licensing and accreditation.
RETIREMENT AND ASSISTED LIVING
Residential communities such as retirement and assisted living facilities
are subject to varying degrees of regulation and licensing by local and state
health and social service agencies, and other regulatory authorities specific to
their location. Typically these regulations and licensing requirements relate to
fire safety, sanitation, staff training, staffing levels and living
accommodations and include requirements specific to certain health related
services offered. Levels of service provided and corresponding regulation vary
considerably from operator to operator as some of the residential communities
are similar to long-term care facilities, while others fall into the relatively
unregulated care of a retirement community.
ALCOHOL AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT FACILITIES
Alcohol and substance abuse treatment facilities must comply with the
licensing requirements of federal, state and local health agencies and with the
requirements of municipal building codes, health codes and local fire
departments. In granting and renewing a facility's license, a state health
agency considers, among other things, the physical buildings and equipment, the
qualifications of the administrative personnel and health care staff, the
quality of nursing and other services and the continuing compliance of such
facility with the laws and regulations applicable to its operations.
PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITALS
Psychiatric hospitals generally are subject to extensive federal, state and
local legislation and regulation. Licensing for psychiatric hospitals is subject
to periodic inspections regarding standards of medical care, equipment and
hygiene. In addition, there are specific laws regulating civil commitment of
patients and disclosure of information regarding patients being treated for
chemical dependency. Many states have adopted a "patient's bill of rights" which
sets forth standards, such as using the least restrictive treatment, allowing
patient access to the telephone and mail, allowing the patient to see a lawyer
and requiring the patient to be treated with dignity. Insurance reimbursement
for psychiatric treatment generally is more limited than for general health
care.
HEALTH CARE REFORM AND REGULATION
Many of the operators with which the Company does business rely on
government reimbursement, primarily Medicare and Medicaid, for a significant
portion of their operating revenues. During the 1994 session of the United
States Congress, there was active consideration of various proposals for
national health care reform, including the administration's proposal to cap
national health care spending and the future growth of Medicare and Medicaid
funding. Other proposals discussed in the 1995 and 1996 sessions of Congress
included replacement of the current Medicaid program with block grants to the
states and other limitations on Medicaid spending. No such legislation was
passed during the 1994, 1995 or 1996 sessions of Congress. Some of these
proposals, if enacted, could have had an impact on
-9-
<PAGE> 10
operators doing business with the Company. It is not possible to predict whether
and when health care reform legislation will be passed by Congress and, if
passed, what features such legislation will contain or the effect it may have on
the nursing home, assisted living or rehabilitation care industries, the
reimbursement levels available to health care providers or on the health care
industry in general.
From time to time, Medicaid, Medicare and other governmental payors have
reviewed the billing practices of many health care facilities operators
including certain of the operators with which the Company does business. It is
unclear what impact such reviews may have on these operators. The Company does
not believe, however, that any adverse findings against these operators would
materially affect the Company's financial position.

During 1996, the Company invested approximately $13,509,000 in exchange for
7,936,000 Shares, representing 19.99% of Nursing Home Properties Plc (NHP Plc),
a property investment group which specializes in the financing, through sale and
leaseback transactions, of nursing homes located in the United Kingdom. The
Company does not have the right to vote more than 9.99% of the shares of NHP
Plc. As of December 31, 1996, NHP Plc had invested or committed to invest
approximately $163,000,000 in 52 nursing homes, totaling 2,923 beds. The
facilities are leased to 11 nursing home operators in the United Kingdom with
terms and conditions similar to those contained in the Company's leases.
(1) Based upon information provided by the operators of the facilities, the
average occupancy of the Company's portfolio of operating facilities,
including start-up facilities, for the nine months ended September 30,
1996, was as follows: long-term care facilities, 84%; rehabilitation
hospitals, 70%; alcohol and substance abuse treatment facilities, 72%;
assisted living, 86%; retirement living facilities, 92%; acute care
hospitals 51%. Generally, average occupancy rates are determined by

(26) Investments by the Company in facilities operated by Sun Healthcare Group,
Inc., Life Care Centers of America, Inc., Emeritus Corporation, Horizon/CMS
Inc., Springwood/Chur Associates, and Health Asset Realty Trust,
represented 17%, 22%, 7%, 6%, 5% and 5%, respectively, of the Company's
total portfolio as of December 31, 1996.
LONG-TERM CARE FACILITIES. The long-term care facilities offer restorative,
rehabilitative and custodial nursing care for patients not requiring the more
extensive and sophisticated treatment available at acute care hospitals. The
facilities are designed to provide custodial care and to supplement hospital
care and many have transfer agreements with one or more acute care hospitals.
ASSISTED LIVING FACILITIES. The assisted living facilities provide a
combination of housing, supportive services, personalized assistance and health
care designed to respond to individual needs for daily living and instrumental
activities. Support services are generally available 24 hours a day to meet
scheduled and unscheduled needs.
RETIREMENT LIVING FACILITIES. The retirement living facilities offer
specially designed residential units for active and ambulatory elderly residents
and provide various ancillary services. They may contain nursing facilities to
provide a continuum of care. The retirement living facilities offer their
residents an opportunity for an independent lifestyle with a range of social and
health services.
REHABILITATION HOSPITALS. The rehabilitation hospitals provide treatment to
restore physical, psycho-social, educational, vocational and economic usefulness
and independence to disabled persons. Rehabilitation concentrates on physical
disabilities and impairments and utilizes a coordinated multidisciplinary team
approach to help patients attain measurable goals.
MEDICAL OFFICE BUILDINGS. Medical office building facilities contain
individual physician, physician group and other health care provider offices for
the administration and treatment of patients, usually in close proximity to the
general service acute care hospital to which the physicians are affiliated. The
types of services provided in a medical office building may include outpatient
therapy, clinics, examination facilities and the provision of other medical
services in a non-hospital setting.
ACUTE CARE HOSPITALS. Acute care hospitals provide services that include,
among others, general surgery, internal medicine, obstetrics, emergency room
care, radiology, diagnostic services, coronary care, pediatric services and
psychiatric services. On an outpatient basis, the services include, among
others, same day surgery, diagnostic radiology (e.g. magnetic resonance imaging,
CT scanning, X-ray), rehabilitative therapy, clinical laboratory services,
pharmaceutical services and psychiatric services.
ALCOHOL AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE TREATMENT FACILITIES. These facilities provide
inpatient treatment for alcohol and substance abuse, including medical
evaluation, detoxification and rehabilitation. Specialized programs offer
treatment for adults, adolescents, families and chronic abusers.
PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITALS. The psychiatric hospitals offer comprehensive,
multidisciplinary adult, adolescent and substance abuse psychiatric programs.
Patients are evaluated upon admission and an individualized treatment plan is
developed. Elements of the treatment plan include individual, group and family
therapy, activity therapy, educational programs and career and vocational
planning.
-14-
<PAGE> 15
LEASES
Each facility (which includes the land, buildings, improvements, related
easements, and rights and fixtures (the "Leased Properties")) that is owned by
the Company is leased pursuant to a long-term triple net lease (collectively,
the "Leases") which generally contains terms as outlined below. Generally, the
Leased Properties do not include major movable equipment.
The Leases generally have a fixed term of approximately 10 years and
contain multiple renewal options. Some Leases are subject to earlier termination
upon the occurrence of certain contingencies described in the Lease.
The Company's Leased Properties aggregated approximately $1,104,342,000 of
gross real estate investments at December 31, 1996. The base rents range from
approximately 9% to 13% per annum of the Company's equity investment in the
Leased Properties. The base rents for the renewal periods are generally fixed
rents for the initial renewal periods and can be fixed or at market rates for
later renewal periods. All Leases provide for either an automatic fixed annual
rent escalation or additional variable rents in addition to the base rent, based
on revenues exceeding specified base revenues. The Company typically also
charges a lease commitment fee at the initiation of the sale/leaseback
transaction.
Each Lease is a triple net lease requiring the lessee to pay rent and all
additional charges incurred in the operation of the Leased Property. The lessees
are required to repair, rebuild and maintain the Leased Properties.
The obligations under the Leases are generally guaranteed by the parent
corporation of the lessee, if any, or affiliates or individual principals of the
lessee. Some obligations are further backed by letters of credit, cash
collateral or pledges of certificates of deposit from various financial
institutions which may cover up to one full year's lease payments and which
remain in effect until the expiration of a fixed time period or the fulfillment
of certain performance criteria.
The Company also obtains other credit enhancement devices similar to those
it may obtain with respect to permanent mortgage loans. See "Permanent Mortgage
Loans" for description.
With respect to two of the facilities, the Company leases the land pursuant
to ground leases and in turn subleases the land to the operator of the facility.
Such subleases contain terms substantially similar to those found in the Leases.
PERMANENT MORTGAGE LOANS
The Company's permanent mortgage loan program is comprised of secured loans
which are structured to provide the Company with interest income, additional
interest based upon the revenue growth of the operating facility or a fixed rate
increase, principal amortization and commitment fees. Virtually all of the
approximately $1,181,818,000 of permanent mortgage loans as of December 31, 1996
are first mortgage loans.
The interest rates on the Company's investments in permanent mortgage loans
for operating facilities range from approximately 9% to 13% per annum on the
outstanding balances. The yield to the Company on permanent mortgage loans
depends upon a number of factors, including the stated interest rate, average
principal amount outstanding during the term of the loan, the amount of the
commitment fee charged at the inception of the loan, the interest rate
adjustments and the additional interest earned.
-15-
<PAGE> 16
The permanent mortgage loans for operating facilities made through December
31, 1996 generally contain 10-year terms with up to 30-year amortization
schedules that provide for a balloon payment of the outstanding principal
balance at the end of the tenth year.
The Company generally requires a variety of additional forms of security
and collateral beyond that which is provided by the lien of the mortgage. For
example, the Company requires one or more of the following items: (a) a guaranty
of the complete payment and performance of all obligations associated with each
mortgage loan from the borrower's parent corporation, if any, other affiliates
of the borrower and/or one or more of the individual principals controlling such
borrower; (b) a collateral assignment from the borrower of the leases and the
rents relating to the mortgaged property; (c) a collateral assignment from the
borrower of all permits, licenses, approvals and contracts relating to the
operation of the mortgaged property; (d) a pledge of all, or substantially all,
of the equity interest held in the borrower; (e) letter of credit, cash
collateral or a pledge of a certificate of deposit, for a negotiated dollar
amount typically equal to three months to one year's principal and interest on
the loan (which letter of credit, cash collateral or pledge of certificate of
deposit typically remains in effect until the later to occur of (i) three years
after the closing of the mortgage loan or (ii) the achievement by the facility
of an agreed-upon cash flow debt coverage ratio for three consecutive fiscal
quarters; (f) an agreement by the guarantor or any affiliate of the guarantor,
borrower or operator of the facility to subordinate all payments due to it from
the borrower to all payments due to the Company under the mortgage loan; and (g)
a security interest in all of the borrower's personal property, including, in
most instances, the borrower's accounts receivable. In addition, the mortgage
loans are generally cross-defaulted and cross-collateralized with any other
mortgage loans, leases or other agreements between the borrower or any affiliate
of the borrower and the Company.
DEVELOPMENT INVESTMENTS AND LOANS
The Company makes development investments or loans which by their terms
are, or convert into, sale/leaseback transactions or permanent mortgage loans
upon the completion of the facilities. Generally, the interest or yield rates on
the outstanding balances of the Company's developments are up to 200 basis
points over the prime rate of a specified financial institution. The Company
also typically charges a commitment fee at the commencement of the project. The
development period generally commences upon the funding of such investments or
loans and terminates upon the earlier of the completion of development of the
applicable facility or a specific date. This period is generally 12 to 24
months. During the development term, funds are advanced pursuant to draw
requests in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable agreement
which, if significant, require a site visit prior to the advancement of funds.
Monthly payments based on an interest or yield rate only are made on the total
amount of the investment or loan proceeds advanced during the development
period.
The Company began its development program in August 1987 and since that
time has converted many of these developments into sale/leaseback transactions
or permanent mortgage loans representing an investment of $362,463,000 as of
December 31, 1996. In addition, at December 31, 1996 the Company had outstanding
development financing of $209,014,000 and was committed to providing additional
financing of approximately $135,346,000. As with the Company's sale/leaseback
transactions or permanent mortgage financing programs, the developments
generally include a variety of additional forms of security and collateral. See
"Leases" and "Permanent Mortgage Loans" for description. During the development
period, the Company generally requires additional security and collateral in the
form of either payment and performance completion bonds or completion guarantees
by either one, or a combination of, the lessee's or borrower's parent entity,
other affiliates, or one or more of the individual principals.
-16-
<PAGE> 17
As a further safeguard during the development period, the Company generally
will retain a portion of the funding equal to 5% to 10% of the transaction
amount until it has received satisfactory evidence that the project has been
fully completed in accordance with the applicable plans and specifications and
the period during which liens may be perfected with respect to any work
performed, or labor or materials supplied, in connection with the construction
of the project has expired. The Company also monitors the progress of the
development of each project, the construction budget and the accuracy of draw
requests by having its own inspector perform on-site inspections of the project
prior to the release of any requested funds.
ITEM 3.
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In December 1993, the Chapter 11 Trustee of Towers Financial Corporation
commenced an action in the Suffolk County Superior Court for the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts against one of the Company's former lessees and in January 1994
two subsidiaries of the Company were named as additional defendants. The
plaintiff alleges that it holds a prior security interest in accounts receivable
of seven health care facilities, one of which is owned by the Company. The
plaintiff demands payment of all such receivables including those collected by
the Company, as well as interest and attorney's fees in an amount up to
$18,000,000. The Company is vigorously defending this action, denies any
liability to the plaintiff and has asserted that the plaintiff does not have a
valid prior security interest in any assets of the Company or its borrowers. The
trial on this matter has commenced and on September 4, 1996, the judge in this
matter issued a decision which was unfavorable to the Company in Phase I of the
trial, which trial had previously been segregated by agreement of the parties
into three distinct phases. The Company intends to continue to defend the matter
with regard to the remaining two phases and is considering an appeal of the
Phase I ruling. The Company is also a party to a number of other claims and
lawsuits arising out of the normal course of business; the Company believes that
none of these claims or pending lawsuits, either individually or in the
aggregate, will have a material adverse affect on the Company's business or on
its consolidated financial position.
