Reliant Rehabilitation Hospital - Houston
On May 9, 2012, American
Realty Capital Healthcare Trust, Inc. (the "Company"), through its sponsor, American Realty Capital V, LLC,
closed its acquisition of a fee simple interest in an inpatient rehabilitation hospital in Houston, Texas (referred to as
the "Property" or the "Building") as part of a previously-announced portfolio of healthcare
facilities (the "Portfolio"). The seller of the Property is Northwest Houston Hospital RE
Partners.  The seller has no material relationship with the Company and the acquisition was not an affiliated
transaction. The Company previously filed the purchase and sale agreement that it entered into in connection with the
Portfolio as an exhibit to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q on August 12, 2011.
The 65,000 square foot Building is a 60-bed
facility located adjacent to a large multispeciality physician group and several general acute care facilities.
The Property is 100% leased to Reliant Rehabilitation
Hospital Northwest Houston, LP ("Reliant") and guaranteed, in part, by Reliant Hospital Partners, LLC ("Guarantor").
The Guarantor was acquired in March 2011 by Nautic Partners, LLC ("Nautic"), a private equity firm with more than $2.5
billion of capital under management. Nautic currently owns four healthcare-related companies.
The lease commenced upon the completion
and occupancy of the Building in May 2012. The lease is a 25 year lease which includes a 2% annual rent escalation during the initial
lease term. The lease is net whereby the tenant is required to pay substantially all operating expenses, including any costs to
maintain and repair the roof and structure of the building, in addition to base rent. The least contains two renewal options, each
for ten years at 102.5% of rent during the last year of the initial term. The aggregate annualized rental income for the Property
is $3.1 million, or $48.37 per rentable square foot.
The purchase price of the Property was approximately
$31.6 million at a capitalization rate of 10.0% (calculated by dividing annualized rental income on a straight-line basis plus
operating expenses reimbursements, less estimated property operating costs, by the purchase price). The Company funded the acquisition,
exclusive of closing costs, of the Property with (a) net proceeds from its ongoing public offering and (b) recovered a portion
of those offering proceeds with a $15.3 million mortgage loan representing a portion of the third tranche of the GECC Mortgage
Loan (as defined below) which closed on May 10, 2012. A description of the terms of the GECC Mortgage Loan and the portion of the
third tranche of such GECC Mortgage Loan relating to Reliant Rehabilitation Hospital – Houston is included in Item 2.03 –
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
The annual real estate taxes payable on
the Property for the calendar year 2012 are estimated to be approximately $385,000. Such real estate taxes are to be reimbursed
by the tenant under the terms of the lease.
Item 2.03.	Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or
