Introductory Note
The Merger
This Current Report on Form
8-K
is being filed in connection with the consummation on July 20, 2022 (the “
Closing Date
”), of the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of February 28, 2022 (the “
Merger Agreement
”), by and among Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated, a Maryland corporation (now known as HRTI, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company) (“
Legacy HR
”), Healthcare Trust of America, Inc., a Maryland corporation (now known as Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated) (“
Legacy HTA
”), Healthcare Trust of America Holdings, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (now known as Healthcare Realty Holdings, L.P.) (the “
OP
”), and HR Acquisition 2, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (“
Merger Sub
”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on the Closing Date, Merger Sub merged with and into Legacy HR, with Legacy HR continuing as the surviving entity and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Legacy HTA (the “
Merger
”). Immediately following the Merger, Legacy HR converted to a Maryland limited liability company and changed its name to “HRTI, LLC” and Legacy HTA changed its name to “Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated”. In addition, the equity interests of Legacy HR were contributed by Legacy HTA by means of a contribution and assignment agreement (the “
Contribution Agreement
”) to the OP such that Legacy HR became a wholly-owned subsidiary of the OP. As a result, Legacy HR became a part of an umbrella partnership REIT (“
UPREIT
”) structure, which is intended to align the corporate structure of the combined company after giving effect to the Merger and the UPREIT reorganization (the “
Combined Company
”) and to provide a platform for the Combined Company to more efficiently acquire properties in a tax-deferred manner. The Combined Company will continue to operate under the name “Healthcare Realty Trust Incorporated” and its shares of class A common stock, $0.01 par value per share, will continue to trade on the New York Stock Exchange (the “
NYSE
”) under the ticker symbol “HR”.
A copy of the Contribution Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.2 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.
The Exchange Offer
In connection with the Merger, the OP offered to exchange all validly tendered and accepted notes of each series previously issued by Legacy HR (the “
Old HR Notes
”) for (i) up to $250,000,000 of 3.875% Senior Notes due 2025 (the “
2025 Notes
”), (ii) up to $300,000,000 of 3.625% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “
2028 Notes
”), (iii) up to $300,000,000 of 2.400% Senior Notes due 2030 (the “
2030 Notes
”) and (iv) up to $300,000,000 of 2.050% Senior Notes due 2031 to be issued by the OP (the “
2031 Notes
” and, collectively, the “
New HR Notes
”) and solicited consents from holders of the Old HR Notes to amend the indenture governing the Old HR Notes to eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants in such indenture (the “
Exchange Offers
”). The New HR Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated July 22, 2022 (the “
Base Indenture
”), among the OP, Legacy HTA and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee, as supplemented by the first supplemental indenture, dated as of July 22, 2022, the second supplemental indenture, dated as of July 22, 2022, the third supplemental indenture, dated as of July 22, 2022 and the fourth supplemental indenture, dated as of July 22, 2022 (the first, second, third and fourth supplemental indentures, collectively, the “
Supplemental Indentures
”). Legacy HTA guaranteed the New HR Notes pursuant to (i) a guarantee of the 2025 Notes, (ii) a guarantee of the 2028 Notes, (iii) a guarantee of the 2030 Notes, and (iv) a guarantee of the 2031 Notes, each dated July 22, 2022 (collectively, the “
Guarantees
”). Legacy HTA filed a registration statement on
Form S-4 (File No. 333-265593) (the
Registration Statement
”) relating to the issuance of the New HR Notes with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “
SEC
”) on June 14, 2022, which was declared effective by the SEC on June 28, 2022.
In connection with the Exchange Offer, Legacy HR entered into a Tenth Supplemental Indenture, dated July 22, 2022, by and between Legacy HR and Truist Bank, as successor in interest to First Union National Bank, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 4.6 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.
As of 5:00 p.m. New York City time, on July 20, 2022 (the “
Expiration Date
”), the conditions required for the consummation of the Exchange Offers had been met, including, among other things, (i) the receipt of valid consents to the proposed amendments from the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of each series of Old HR Notes, each voting as a separate series, and (ii) consummation of the Merger, which occurred on July 20, 2022. The final settlement of the Exchange Offers took place on July 22, 2022.
The Exchange Offers were made pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the OP and Legacy HTA’s prospectus dated June 28, 2022, which forms a part of the Registration Statement (the “
Prospectus
”). The Prospectus contains a more comprehensive description of the terms and conditions of the Exchange Offers. Copies of the Base Indenture, the Supplemental Indentures, the New HR Notes and the Guarantees are filed as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14, 4.15 and 4.16 hereto, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
The information provided in the Introductory Note of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.
In connection with the effectiveness of the Merger, Legacy HR (in a limited capacity), Legacy HTA and the OP entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit and Term Loan Agreement (the “
Credit Facility
”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent; Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., and Citibank, N.A., as Joint Book Runners; Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., U.S. Bank National Association, Citibank, N.A., The Bank of Nova Scotia, Capital One, National Association, U.S. Bank National Association, and PNC Capital Markets LLC, as Joint Lead Arrangers; and the other lenders named therein. The Credit Facility restructures the parties’ existing bank facilities and adds additional borrowing capacities for the Combined Company following the Merger. The OP is the borrower under the Credit Facility (in such capacity, the “
Borrower
”).

The Credit Facility is comprised of (i) an unsecured, $1.5 billion revolving credit facility and (ii) six individual term loan tranches totaling $1.5 billion. A brief summary of the components and the effect of the Credit Facility on existing facilities is as follows:
 
 
 
Legacy HR’s existing $700.0 million revolving credit facility under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 31, 2019 (as amended, restated, replaced, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the Closing Date, the “
Existing HR Revolving Credit Agreement
”), by and among Legacy HR, the lenders party thereto from time to time and their assignees, as lenders, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the administrative agent (the “
WF Administrative Agent
”), was terminated, all outstanding obligations in respect thereof were deemed paid in full and all commitments thereunder were permanently reduced to zero and terminated.
 
 
 
Legacy HR’s existing $200.0 million term loan facility and existing $150.0 million term loan facility under the Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement, dated as of May 31, 2019 (as amended, restated, replaced, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the Closing Date, the “
Existing HR Term Loan Agreement
”), by and among Legacy HR, the lenders party thereto from time to time and their assignees, as lenders, and the WF Administrative Agent, in each, case, were deemed continued and assumed by the Borrower under the Credit Facility, and the Existing HR Term Loan Agreement was terminated.
 
 
 
The existing $200.0 million term loan facility was amended to: (a) conform to the terms of the Borrower’s other term loan facilities under the Credit Facility; (b) include two one-year extension options, resulting in a latest final maturity in May 2026; and (c) reprice to align with the pricing for the Borrower’s other term loan facilities under the Credit Facility; and
 
 
 
The existing $150.0 million term loan facility was amended to conform to the terms of the Borrower’s other term loan facilities under the Credit Facility, and the existing maturity in June 2026 remains unchanged under the Credit Facility.
 
 
 
Legacy HTA’s and the OP’s existing $1.0 billion revolving credit facility was upsized to $1.5 billion (the “
Revolver
”) pursuant to the Credit Facility. The Revolver currently matures in October 2025, and the Credit Facility adds an additional one-year extension option for the Revolver, for a total of two one-year extension options.
 
 
 
Legacy HTA’s and the OP’s existing $300.0 million term loan facility was deemed continued pursuant to the Credit Facility and was amended to conform to the terms of the Borrower’s other term loan facilities under the Credit Facility. The existing maturity in October 2025 remains unchanged under the Credit Facility.
 
 
 
Legacy HTA’s and the OP’s existing $200.0 million term loan facility was deemed continued pursuant to the Credit Facility and was amended to (a) conform to the terms of the Borrower’s other term loan facilities under the Credit Facility; (b) extend the maturity from January 2024 to July 20, 2027; and (c) reprice to align with the pricing for the Borrower’s other term loan facilities under the Credit Facility.
 
 
 
The Credit Facility provides for a new $350.0 million delayed-draw term loan facility that is available to be drawn for 12 months after the Closing Date and has an initial maturity date of July 20, 2023, with two one-year extension options. The terms of any delayed draw term loans funded thereunder conform to the terms of the Borrower’s other term loan facilities under the Credit Facility, and the pricing for such delayed draw term loans aligns with the pricing for the Borrower’s other term loan facilities under the Credit Facility.
 
 
 
The Credit Facility provides for a new $300.0 million term loan facility that was funded on the Closing Date and has a maturity of January 20, 2028, with no extension options. The terms of such term loan facility conform to the terms of the Borrower’s other term loan facilities under the Credit Facility, and the pricing for such term loan facility aligns with the pricing for the Borrower’s other term loan facilities under the Credit Facility.
Upon the effectiveness of the Credit Facility on July 20, 2022, all existing obligations of Legacy HR were assigned to, and assumed by, the Borrower, and Legacy HR was released from its obligations in respect thereof. All obligations under the Credit Facility are the primary obligation of the Borrower.
Revolving loans outstanding under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to Adjusted Term SOFR plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is determined based on the Borrower’s credit ratings and ranges from 0.725% per annum to 1.40% per annum (currently 0.85% per annum). Term loans outstanding under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to Adjusted Term SOFR plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is determined based on the Borrower’s credit ratings and ranges from 0.80% per annum to 1.60% per annum (currently 0.95% per annum). In addition, the Borrower pays an unused commitment fee on the undrawn revolving commitments and the undrawn delayed draw term loan commitments at a rate per annum determined based on the Borrower’s credit ratings and ranging from 0.125% per annum to 0.30% per annum (currently 0.20% per annum).
The Credit Facility contains covenants that are customary for agreements of this type. These covenants include, among others: limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness; limitations on mergers, investments and acquisitions; limitations on dividends and redemptions of capital stock; limitations on transactions with affiliates; and requirements to comply with certain financial covenants, including a maximum total leverage ratio, a maximum senior leverage ratio, a maximum unencumbered leverage ratio, a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a minimum unsecured coverage ratio.

The Credit Facility contains events of default that are customary for agreements of this type. These events of default include, among others: nonpayment of any outstanding principal, interest, fees or amounts due under the Credit Facility; the failure to perform or observe covenants in the loan documents; the occurrence of certain bankruptcy and insolvency events; the occurrence of a default under the terms of certain other material indebtedness of the Borrower and certain of its subsidiaries and affiliates; and the occurrence of a change of control.
A copy of the Credit Facility is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Credit Facility does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Facility.

8-K
is incorporated herein by reference.
On the Closing Date, Legacy HR, Legacy HTA, the OP and Merger Sub completed the Merger in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Articles of Merger contemplated thereby were filed with the State Department of Assessments and Taxation of Maryland (the “
SDAT
”), with an effective time and date of 4:28 p.m., Eastern Time, on the Closing Date (the “
Effective Time
”).
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Legacy HTA declared a special dividend of $4.82 (the “
Special Dividend
”) for each outstanding share of Legacy HTA class A common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “
Legacy HTA Common Stock
”), and the OP declared a corresponding distribution to the holders of its partnership units, payable to Legacy HTA stockholders and OP unitholders of record on July 19, 2022. At the Effective Time, each outstanding share of Legacy HR common stock, $0.01 par value per share (the “
Legacy HR Common Stock
”), was cancelled and converted into the right to receive one share of Legacy HTA Common Stock at a fixed ratio of 1.00 : 1.00. No fractional shares of Legacy HTA Common Stock were issued in the Merger, and the value of any fractional interests to which a former holder of Legacy HR Common Stock is otherwise entitled will be paid in cash.
Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each option to purchase shares of Legacy HR Common Stock was converted into an option exercisable for one share of Legacy HTA Common Stock, subject to the same economic terms and conditions as were applicable to the corresponding option immediately prior to the Merger. In addition, at the Effective Time, all Legacy HR restricted stock, and each right of any kind, contingent or accrued, to receive shares of Legacy HR Common Stock or benefits measured in whole or in part by the value of a number of shares of Legacy HR Common Stock granted by Legacy HR outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, were converted into the right to receive the same number of shares of Legacy HTA Common Stock, subject to the same economic terms and conditions as were applicable to the corresponding award immediately prior to the Merger.
The foregoing description of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Merger Agreement, which was previously filed as Exhibit 2.1 to Legacy HTA’s Current Report on Form
8-K
filed with the SEC on March 1, 2022, and which is incorporated by reference herein.
 
Item 2.03
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
The information provided in the Introductory Note and Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.
 
Item 3.01
Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.
On July 20, 2022, Legacy HR notified the NYSE of completion of the Merger, and requested that trading of shares of Legacy HR Common Stock on the NYSE be halted prior to the market open on July 21, 2022. As a result, all shares of Legacy HR Common Stock were removed from trading on the NYSE on July 21, 2022 before the market opened. The NYSE has filed a notification of removal from listing on Form 25 with the SEC with respect to the Legacy HR Common Stock in order to effect the delisting of such shares from the NYSE. Such delisting will result in the termination of the registration of Legacy HR Common Stock under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. Legacy HR intends to file a certificate on Form 15 under the Exchange Act, requesting the deregistration of Legacy HR Common Stock under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, which will suspend Legacy HR’s reporting obligations under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Legacy HR Common Stock, at the time such filings is permitted by the SEC.

Item 3.03
Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
The information provided in the Introductory Note and Items 2.01, 3.01 and 5.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.
At the Effective Time, the holders of Legacy HR Common Stock immediately before the Merger ceased to have any rights as stockholders of Legacy HR (other than their right to receive Legacy HTA Common Stock) and will instead have the rights of common stockholders of Legacy HTA.
 
Item 4.01
Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
For accounting purposes, the Merger is treated as a “reverse acquisition” in which Legacy HTA is considered the legal acquirer and Legacy HR is considered the accounting acquirer. As such, the historical financial statements of the accounting acquiror, Legacy HR, which have been audited by BDO USA, LLP, will become the historical financial statements of Legacy HTA. In a reverse acquisition, a change of accountants is presumed to have occurred unless the same accountant audited the
pre-transaction
financial statements of both the legal acquirer and the accounting acquirer, and such change is generally presumed to occur on the date the reverse acquisition is completed. A determination as to the certifying accountant for the Combined Company for periods following the Merger has not yet been made and will be determined by the board of directors of the Combined Company, or a committee thereof.
 
Item 5.01
Changes in Control of Registrant.
The information provided in the Introductory Note and Items 2.01 and 5.02 of this Current Report on Form
8-K

Foss each resigned from his or her position as a director of Legacy HTA, and all nine members of the board of directors of Legacy HR serving immediately prior to the Effective Time became members of the board of directors of the Combined Company.

The information provided in the Introductory Note and Item 2.01 of this Current Report on Form
8-K
is incorporated herein by reference.
