Medical Properties Trust Announces Public Offering of $1.0 Billion of Senior Notes Due 2027
Medical Properties Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: MPW) announced today that its operating partnership, MPT Operating
Partnership, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), and MPT Finance Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Operating
Partnership (“MPT Finance” and, together with the Operating Partnership, the “Issuers”), intend to offer, subject to market and
other conditions, $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2027 (the “Notes”). The Notes will be senior
unsecured obligations of the Issuers, guaranteed by the Company.
The Issuers intend to use the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes, together with cash on hand and other sources of debt
capital, which may include borrowings under the Operating Partnership’s revolving credit facility, to finance the Company’s
previously announced anticipated investment in a portfolio of ten acute care hospitals and one behavioral health facility currently
operated by IASIS Healthcare for an aggregate purchase price and investment of approximately $1.4 billion and the related
investment by a subsidiary of the Operating Partnership in approximately $100 million in minority preferred interests of Steward
Health Care System LLC (collectively, the “Steward-IASIS Transactions”). If the Steward-IASIS Transactions are not completed or the
Company elects not to consummate the Steward-IASIS Transactions, in either case, on or prior to 180 days after the closing date of
the Notes offering, the Issuers will be required to redeem $500 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes in a special
mandatory redemption. If such redemption were to occur, the Issuers intend to use the remaining proceeds to redeem all $350 million
aggregate principal amount of their existing 6.375% senior notes due 2022, including premium and accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, to repay borrowings under the Operating Partnership’s revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes, which
may include investing in additional healthcare properties.
