Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On November 13, 2017, Medical
Properties Trust, Inc. (the Company) and MPT Operating Partnership, L.P. entered into separate equity distribution agreements, each dated as of November 13, 2017 (each, an Equity Distribution Agreement and
collectively, the Equity Distribution Agreements), with each of SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc., Credit Agricole Securities (USA) Inc., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, MUFG Securities Americas Inc., Raymond James &
Associates, Inc., RBC Capital Markets, LLC, Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as sales agents (each, a Sales Agent and collectively, the Sales Agents). Under the terms of each
Equity Distribution Agreement, the Company may sell from time to time shares of common stock (the Shares) having an aggregate offering price of up to $750 million during a period of three years (unless earlier terminated) in
at-the-market
offerings or certain other transactions (the Offering). The Company may sell the Shares in amounts and at times to be determined by the
Company from time to time, but has no obligation to sell any of the Shares in the Offering. Actual sales will depend on a variety of factors to be determined by the Company from time to time, including (among others) market conditions, the
trading price of the Companys common stock and determinations by the Company of the appropriate sources of funding for the Company. Each Equity Distribution Agreement provides that each Sales Agent will be entitled to compensation of up to
2.0% of the gross sales price per share for any of the Shares sold under each Equity Distribution Agreement.
The Shares will be issued
pursuant to a prospectus supplement filed by the Company on November 13, 2017 with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Companys automatic shelf registration statement on
Form S-3
(File
No. 333-208813)
filed on December 31, 2015. This Current Report shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of these securities
in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.
The form of Equity Distribution Agreement is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report . The description of the Equity Distribution
Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Equity Distribution Agreement filed herewith as an exhibit to this Current Report and incorporated herein by reference.
