Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

The information set forth below in Item 2.01 is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

 

On April 29, 2015, Summit Healthcare REIT, Inc. (“we” or the “Company”), through our subsidiary Summit Healthcare Operating Partnership, LP (“SHOP”), entered into a joint venture (“Joint Venture”) and limited liability company agreement (“LLC Agreement”) with Best Years, LLC (“Best Years”), a U.S. based affiliate of Union Life Insurance Co, Ltd. (“Union Life”). In conjunction with the Joint Venture, SHOP contributed all of its limited liability company interest in each of six limited liability companies that collectively own (i) two skilled nursing facilities located in Lamar and Monte Vista, CO, (ii) an assisted living facility located in Front Royal, VA, (iii) a skilled nursing/assisted living facility located in Myrtle Point, OR and (iv) a skilled nursing/independent living facility and independent living facility located in Portland and Salem, OR, respectively (collectively, the “Properties”) to the Joint Venture entity, resulting in the Joint Venture owning each of the Properties. Best Years, in conjunction with the Joint Venture, contributed cash in the amount of approximately $9.9 million to the Joint Venture. At the close of the Joint Venture transaction, SHOP received approximately $9.2 million in cash from the Joint Venture, and concurrent with the transaction the principal amount of The PrivateBank and Trust Company loan cross-collateralized by four of the Properties reduced the Front Royal Loan by $715,000. Under the LLC Agreement, as a result of these contributions and cash distributions, SHOP and Best Years own a 10% and 90% equity interest in the Joint Venture, respectively.

 

Under the LLC Agreement, net operating cash flow of the Joint Venture will be distributed quarterly first to SHOP and Best Years pari passu up to a 10% annual return, and thereafter to Best Years 75% and SHOP 25%. All capital proceeds (from the sale of the Properties, refinancing, or other capital event) will be paid first to SHOP and Best Years pari passu until each has received an amount equal to its accrued but unpaid 10% return plus its total contribution, and thereafter to Best Years 75% and SHOP 25%.

 

As part of the Joint Venture, we formed Summit Healthcare Asset Management, LLC (the “Management Company”) as a wholly-owned taxable REIT subsidiary.  Under the LLC Agreement, Best Years will pay the Management Company a one-time acquisition fee equal to 1% of the original purchase price paid for the Properties, and the Joint Venture will pay the Management Company annual asset management fees equal to .25% of the original purchase price paid for the Properties.

 

As a result of the Joint Venture, the Properties will no longer be consolidated in the Company’s financial results, commencing April 30, 2015. The Joint Venture will be accounted for under the equity method in the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

Attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and incorporated herein by reference, is a copy of the Company’s press release, dated April 30, 2015, announcing the Joint Venture.
