Heavenrich & Company Sells $90 Million Maryland Skilled Nursing Portfolio
Chicago, Illinois, January 16, 2012 — Heavenrich & Company (Heavenrich), a boutique investment bank servicing the senior housing sector, is pleased to announce the successful sale of seven skilled nursing facilities owned by Persimmon Ventures, LLC (Persimmon) for $90 million to two separate purchasers. Heavenrich was retained by Persimmon as a financial advisor on this transaction. Omega Healthcare Investors (NYSE:OHI) acquired four of the facilities and affiliates of White Pine Holdings, an independent third party owner/operator, purchased three of the facilities and operations. Omega provided mortgage financing to White Pine. The facilities will continue to be operated by the current manager, White Oak Healthcare.

Transaction Highlights
– Six (6) facilities in Maryland and one (1) in West Virginia
– The portfolio was comprised of 943 beds in the Baltimore and Washington DC MSAs, including an under construction facility in Towson, Maryland.

Return To TopTHIRD QUARTER 2011 REVIEW SELECTED TRANSACTIONS IN THE SENIOR HOUSING INDUSTRY
Chicago, Illinois, September 22, 2011 — As the United States attempts to crawl its way out of the biggest debt bubble in history and the European banking system's solvency remains in question, the senior housing acquisition game has changed. Throughout 2011, REITs dominated the landscape with mega-acquisitions. To date, the four largest transactions in 2011 were completed by Ventas and Health Care REIT, totaling over $11 billion.The smaller transactions in 2011 were a combination of Private Equity "cashing out" to REITs or operators acquiring operating interest in a joint venture or exercising purchase options with their capital partners.
The major money lenders are sitting on a large portfolio of loans that are non-self liquidating. That is, the borrowers do not have the capability to pay off the loans through cash flows and value enhancement. This situation carries through to the senior housing sector, where recent cuts in reimbursement in the skilled sector, slow occupancy growth and higher equity requirements have all made lenders' loans fall into the non-self-liquidating category. How do you get these now highly leveraged loans off the books?
In come the REITs. Who else has that kind of equity waiting at the sidelines, but the REITs. Their all- in lease yields might be 7-12%. To any operator with growth plans, working with a REIT becomes a much easier proposition than going out and raising all that additional equity. To an existing lender who wants to clear a non-self liquidating loan off the books, a REIT offers a quick and sure solution with little or no write off required.
Until the debt bubble works its way through the system, we will continue to see REITs dominate the landscape in senior housing acquisitions. Look for more REIT mergers in 2012.

HEAVENRICH & COMPANY ANNOUNCES RECAPITALIZATION ENGAGEMENT AND CLOSING OF A TEXAS SNF
Chicago, Illinois, November 29, 2010 - Heavenrich & Company announced that it has been retained on an exclusive basis to serve as financial advisors of an East Coast senior housing company to explore recapitalization. The company owns approximately $90-$120 million in senior housing real estate and a well managed and highly successful operating company. Heavenrich will be working with the owner and senior management to refine professional and personal goals before executing a plan. Heavenrich will address the challenge of how the owner can best monetize the value of the real estate assets and use that liquidity to grow the operations. The owner has recognized that this is a unique time in senior housing. By monetizing some of the Company's assets, the owner can capitalize on the unique environment and acquire distressed opportunities for the operating company.
"The downward pressure on cap rates, the opportunities for acquisition of distressed assets, the liquidity of the REITs and the prospect of escalating interest rates in the future all combine to make monetizing at least a portion of your portfolio a sensible move in 2011," said Adam Heavenrich. We expect to see a majority of our business for 2011 in representing owner operators in sale/leasebacks of their portfolios. By holding on to operations, you stay in the game and have the opportunity to move quickly on opportunistic acquisitions. In addition, you can have another bite at the apple by growing operations and eventually selling off the operating company.
Heavenrich also announced that it has completed the sale of a 66-bed skilled nursing facility in Claude, Texas, Palo Duro nursing home. The purchase price was $1.85 million.
Return To TopHEAVENRICH & COMPANY SELLS $45 MILLION SKILLED NURSING FACILITY PORTFOLIO IN VIRGINIA TO GRUBB & ELLIS HEALTHCARE REIT II
Chicago, Illinois, October 1, 2010 - Heavenrich & Company, Inc. today announced that it had sold a portfolio of seven skilled nursing facilities located throughout Virginia. Heavenrich represented Smith/Packett of Roanoke, Virginia, the managing member of the Portfolio. The buyer was Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II.
The approximately 230,000-square-foot, 563-bed portfolio was built between 1989 and 2004. Laurel Healthcare and Kissito Healthcare operate the facilities under long-term absolute net leases. The acquisition closed on Sept. 16.
"In order to maximize the value for the Smith/Packett investors, we took a look at the components of the total portfolio and recognized the need to break apart the offering. Demand was very strong for newer triple net leased skilled nursing facilities with good operators and good coverage," said Adam Heavenrich, managing director of Heavenrich & Company. "This transaction affords Smith/Packett additional financial flexibility to do what they do best: New development for operators in skilled and assisted living in the Mid-Atlantic States."
Jim Smith, CEO of Smith/Packett said, "The Grubb & Ellis transaction was well timed and well executed by Heavenrich."
According to Danny Prosky, president and chief operating officer of Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT II, "Skilled nursing facilities in general are of great interest to us because there is a fairly constrained supply and they cater to a rapidly growing segment of our population.
The $45 million acquisition is comprised of the following properties:

Return To TopHEAVENRICH & COMPANY, INC. ANNOUNCES LATEST ENGAGEMENTS
Chicago, Illinois January 27, 2009—Heavenrich & Company today announced engagements on the sale of two skilled nursing portfolios in Texas. The first portfolio includes four nursing homes located in central Texas, where the Owner is looking to retire from the industry. Heavenrich was engaged to value the portfolio and identify strategic buyers. "One of the most important things to our client on this transaction is certainty of execution," said Rod Fearon, Texas Regional Associate. "Regulations in Texas with regards to State notification of ownership transfer means that an operator could find themselves with a working capital shortfall. There is a period when Medicaid funds are shut off just prior to closing, which can result in a working capital shortfall in the millions. A misstep with a buyer or their financing source could be costly. We spend a lot of time screening not only buyers, but their debt and equity sources to provide the highest certainty of a closing." The transaction is under Letter of Intent and closing is expected in the 2nd quarter of 2009.
Additionally, Heavenrich was recently engaged on the sale of a portfolio being sold under a credit default. The seller was facing the prospect of returning the portfolio to the lender. The portfolio in Texas included 4 skilled nursing facilities and 462 beds. Heavenrich identified a well capitalized operator that allowed the seller to walk away with equity. The closing is scheduled at the end of January, just 60 days after Heavenrich had been engaged.
Heavenrich & Company also announced a new engagement for the sale of a 58 bed assisted living facility in northern Nevada. The facility represents a tremendous opportunity as is the sole healthcare provider to the community. For more information, contact Alec Schiffer at (303) 929-3031.

Heavenrich & Company's singular focus remains to provide each client the advisory services customized to the client's goals, with a high level of attention and analysis dedicated to each engagement. We are seeing an unprecedented growth, as clients are responding to our unique team approach.

With many of our transactions, we are advising owners who want to either sell the operations, the real estate associated with the operations, or both.
Heavenrich also noted a growing demand among buyers interested in acquiring multi-facility portfolios. In several situations, we are able to bundle separate transactions, which adds value for both buyers and sellers. In grouping the transactions, due diligence becomes significantly less expensive and a buyer can immediately establish a larger presence in a region by buying several of these offerings at once. This approach also provides owners with smaller offerings access to a broad range of buyers, including large regional and national firms seeking platform-launching, multi-facility acquisitions.
Heavenrich is currently engaged on transactions throughout the country, including, Georgia, Alabama, New Hampshire, Wisconsin, Iowa, Oklahoma, Nevada, Texas, and California. Engagements are fairly evenly distributed between assisted living, independent living, and skilled nursing. The activity in Texas, however, is primarily in skilled nursing, where Heavenrich is currently engaged to sell a total of 806 beds among nine skilled nursing facilities spread throughout the state. These skilled nursing facilities run the spectrum from highly profitable to distressed, offering opportunities to buyers who are interested in acquiring operationally stabilized facilities as well as those seeking turn-around potential.

SECURES FOUR NEW SELL SIDE ENGAGEMENTS SELLS RIVERPARK SENIOR RESIDENCE Chicago, Illinois January 3, 2006 — Heavenrich & Company, Inc. today announced the closing of the sale of Riverpark Senior Residence, a landmark building in downtown Bradenton, Florida that had hosted presidents and crime kingpins after its 1926 grand opening. Most recently, it had been used for low to moderate income assisted and independent living. The seven story structure was not well suited to today's standards of independent living as the typical room size was under 250 square feet. The small footprint and multiple stories of the 84,346 gross square foot building also made it difficult to serve the more acute residents for assisted living. As a result, Riverpark had never been profitable as a senior housing facility. At the time of sale, it had 105 residents in the 131 units. Bradenton, however is undergoing a boom in the housing market, which presented buyers a unique opportunity for a historic rehab and condominium conversion. Bradenton, Florida claimed the number one spot in metropolitan areas in the nation with the greatest home price appreciation in the first quarter of 2005. The acquirer was a local developer, Kendar Corporation, with a strong reputation for historic rehabs in this market. The purchase price was $3,500,000. The renovation would preserve the historic exterior of the building. The interior would be converted to approximately 50 condominium units with a sales price of between $220,000 to $400,000. Heavenrich served as advisors to the sellers, Illini Hotel Enterprises, a Chicago-based partnership. Jones, Lang LaSalle served as advisor to the Buyer. In other news, Heavenrich has been engaged on four new senior housing assignments in which they are representing the sellers. The first is a Tennessee-based organization with four facilities in two states. The facilities include assisted living and Alzheimer care. Two of the facilities have extensive land for construction of townhomes or condos. The second engagement is also a Tennessee-based organization that is selling an existing skilled nursing facility that is over 200 beds. The third engagement is the sale of four skilled nursing homes in Oklahoma. The Owners are considering running the sale under an auction format. Qualified operators would be invited to Oklahoma for the auction. Finally, the fourth engagement is representation on the sale of a campus in Virginia, which has two assisted living facilities, Alzheimer care and nearly 100 acres of developable land for townhomes or independent living.

HEAVENRICH & COMPANY ANNOUNCES ILLINOIS, FLORIDA AND NEW HAMPSHIRE SENIOR HOUSING TRANSACTIONS Chicago, Illinois August 31, 2005 — Heavenrich & Company, Inc. today announced the 203-bed nursing home, Victorian Manor of LaGrange, Illinois was sold August 25, 2005. Heavenrich had been retained by The Inland Real Estate Group of Companies, Inc., which are headquartered in Oak Brook, Illinois, to sell the Chicago area skilled nursing facility that was owned by one of their public income funds. Inland employs more than 1,000 people in 21 states and has $13 billion of assets under management and more than 100 million square feet of commercial real estate in various portfolios. Inland ranks as one of the largest owners of specialty real estate in the United States. According to Phil Menolascina, vice president of Inland Real Estate Investment Corporation, "We were very impressed with Heavenrich & Company's execution. They did their homework on a very complex transaction and added value through an innovative marketing approach. They brought in a base offer which unbundled the real estate from the operations. This established a threshold for the bidding, which was high. The bottom line was we had multiple letters of intent that exceeded our expectations. The buyer we selected gave us the unique terms that we were seeking." In other news, Heavenrich announced that the 70-bed assisted living facility, in Winter Garden, Florida sold on August 30, 2005. Mr. Heavenrich added, "This was an unusual situation where the owner, out of loyalty, wanted the management company to stay on. We identified a financial buyer that was seeking management expertise and willing to pay a premium on the transaction as a result. The management company and the financial buyer had good chemistry from the start. It will be a platform acquisition for the financial buyer and the management company will have the opportunity for growth." The transaction price was $5.8 million on $526,000 in trailing EBITDA. While the cap was 9.07%, the facility had 100% occupancy with a waiting list. The 10- acre campus had room for a needed 18-unit expansion of assisted living, as well as room for additional expansion. Heavenrich represented the seller, James Development Firm, of Minnesota. The buyer was a privately held healthcare investment fund based in Maryland. In May, 2005 Heavenrich closed on a transaction in which it served as advisors to SunBridge Healthcare, the inpatient subsidiary of the publicly traded Sun Healthcare Group.
