TORONTO, July 25, 2017 /CNW/ - Mainstreet Health Investments Inc. (TSX:HLP.U) (the "Company") announced today that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell two transitional care facilities located in Wichita, Kansas and Fort Worth, Texas (collectively, the "Properties") to Mainstreet Property Group, LLC ("Mainstreet Property Group"), for a total sale price of approximately US$47 million. The transaction is expected to close prior to year-end.
The Company has entered into lease agreements with an affiliate of Mainstreet Property Group to operate the Properties until the transaction closes. The lease agreements are triple-net, with an initial term of 15 years and are at market rates. The rents payable under the lease agreements are equal to the payments currently being made under the income support agreement entered into by Mainstreet Property Group in favour of the Company when the Properties were acquired by the Company. The income support agreement has been terminated concurrently with the parties entering into the lease. Mainstreet Property Group and its affiliate entering into the lease agreements are majority-owned by Zeke Turner, the chairman of the Company.
"This transaction provides these Properties with an operator that will serve the communities well, and demonstrates our continued commitment to working with our partners. We are committed to being supportive of Mainstreet Property Group and its affiliates as they build out their operating company focused on post-acute transitional care" noted Scott White, the Company's Chief Executive Officer. "As part of our disciplined growth strategy, we constantly evaluate our portfolio and deploy capital to create maximum value for our shareholders."
The sale of the Properties will be subject to standard closing conditions, including satisfactory completion of due diligence.
