ATM Program

 

On June 26, 2015, the Company entered into an At-the-Market Equity Offering Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated,  UBS Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Credit Agricole Securities (USA) Inc., RBC Capital Markets, LLC and BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC (collectively, the “Sales Agents”) to sell shares (the “ATM Shares”) of Common Stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $750,000,000, from time to time, through an “at-the-market” equity offering program (the “ATM Program”).

 

The sales, if any, of the ATM Shares will be made through the Sales Agents acting as sales agent or directly to the Sales Agents acting as principal, and will be made by means of ordinary brokers’ transactions on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices.  Under the terms of the Sales Agreement, ATM Shares sold directly to the Sales Agents as principal for their own accounts will be sold at prices agreed upon at the time of sale. If the Company sells ATM Shares to any of the Sales Agents as principal, it will enter into a separate terms agreement with such Sales Agent. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company from time to time.

 

The Sales Agreement provides that each Sales Agent will be entitled to compensation that will not exceed 2.0% of the gross sales price per share of all ATM Shares sold through it as sales agent under the Sales Agreement. The Company has no obligation to sell any of the ATM Shares under the Sales Agreement, and may at any time suspend solicitation and offers under the Sales Agreement.

 

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including future acquisitions, investments or repayment of indebtedness, including borrowings outstanding under the Company’s revolving credit facility.

 

The ATM Shares will be offered and sold pursuant to the New Registration Statement. The Company filed a prospectus supplement (the “ATM Prospectus Supplement”), dated June 26, 2015, with the SEC in connection with the offer, issuance and sale of the ATM Shares.

 

The foregoing description of the Sales Agreement is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Sales Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

The Company is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K to provide legal opinions of its counsel, Ballard Spahr LLP, regarding the legality of the securities covered by the DRIP Prospectus Supplement, the HCPI/Utah II Resale Shares Prospectus Supplement, the HCPI/Tennessee Prospectus Supplement, the MCD Prospectus Supplement, the HCPI/Utah II Exchanges Shares Prospectus Supplement, the California II Prospectus Supplement and the ATM Prospectus Supplement, which opinions are attached hereto as Exhibits 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6 and 5.7, respectively.
