Item 1.01. — Material Definitive Agreements

 

On May 30, 2012, LTC Properties, Inc. (“LTC”) announced that it had signed an amendment (“the Amendment”) to its unsecured credit agreement (“the Credit Agreement”), dated May 25, 2012.  The Amendment increases the aggregate commitment of the lenders to $240 million and provides for the opportunity to increase the credit amount up to a total of $350 million.  The Amendment extends the maturity of the Credit Agreement to May 25, 2016 and provides for a one-year extension option at LTC’s discretion, subject to customary conditions.  The Amendment reduces the pricing grid by 25 basis points for amounts drawn under the Credit Agreement and reduces the commitment fee by 10 basis points.  Based on LTC’s current leverage ratios, the Amendment provides for interest annually at LIBOR plus 125 basis points and an unused commitment fee of 25 basis points.  The Amendment also clarifies certain definitions and covenants in the Credit Agreement and increased LTC’s permitted investments in assets under development from 15% to 20% of total asset value and increases the aggregate permitted investments in joint ventures, assets under development, redevelopment assets and certain other assets to 25% of total asset value.  As of May 30, 2012, LTC had $66.0 million outstanding under the unsecured revolving credit facility.

 

The following banks are participants in the Credit Agreement: Bank of Montreal, Chicago Branch as Administrative Agent, BMO Capital Markets, as Co-Lead Arranger and Joint Book Runner, Key Bank National Association, as Syndication Agent, KeyBanc Capital Markets, Inc. as Co-Lead Arranger and Joint Book Runner, Royal Bank of Canada as Co-Documentation Agent, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as Co-Documentation Agent.

 

On May 25, 2012 LTC also amended its note purchase and private shelf agreement with Prudential Investment Management, Inc. (“Prudential”) to conform certain definitions, covenants and permitted investment amounts to the unsecured credit agreement amendment.  The note purchase and private shelf agreement provides for the issuance of up to an aggregate of $100 million senior unsecured promissory notes to Prudential and one or more of its affiliates and managed accounts, in addition to $100 million of previously issued senior unsecured promissory notes outstanding to Prudential and certain of its affiliates and managed accounts.  Any notes sold by LTC to Prudential under the agreement will be in amounts at fixed interest rates and have maturity dates (each note to have a final maturity not greater than 10 years and an average life not greater than 8 years from the date of issuance) subject to agreement by LTC and Prudential.
