On September 13, 2013, affiliates of Medical Properties Trust, Inc. (the "Company") entered into an agreement to acquire 11 rehabilitation
facilities in the Federal Republic of Germany from RHM Klinik-und Altenheimbetriebe GmbH & Co. KG ("RHM") for an aggregate purchase price, including payment by the Company of approximately €9.0 million in applicable transfer
taxes, of €184.0 million (plus a commitment to provide up to €10.0 million in financing for the construction of additions to the facilities within the next two years). Each of the facilities will be leased back to RHM under a
master lease providing for a term of 27 years and for annual rent increases of 2.0 % from 2015 through 2017, and of 0.5 % thereafter. On December 31, 2020 and every three years thereafter rent will also be increased to reflect 70% of
cumulative increases in the German consumer price index.
