COMMUNITY HEALTHCARE TRUST INCORPORATED (NYSE:CHCT) Files An 8-K Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 29, 2017, Community Healthcare Trust Incorporated (the
Company), through its operating partnership, Community Healthcare
OP, LP (the Operating Partnership or Borrower), entered into a
second amended and restated credit agreement (the Second Amended
and Restated Credit Agreement) with a syndicate of lenders co-led
by SunTrust Robinson Humphrey Inc., BBT, Fifth Third Bank, under
which SunTrust Bank serves as administrative agent and Fifth
Third Bank serves as syndication agent.
The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is described in
further detail in Item 2.03 below.
The summary of the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
contained herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified
in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Second
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement that will be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to the Companys
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ending March 31,
2017.
Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an
Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a
Registrant.
The information reported under Item 1.01 of this Current Report
on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amends and
restates the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of
August 10, 2016 by and among the Borrower, the Company and the
several banks and financial institutions listed above
(collectively, the Lenders) to which the Lenders provides for a
$150.0 million revolving credit facility in favor of the Borrower
(the Revolving Facility) and $100.0 million in term loans (the
“Term Loans”). The Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement,
through the accordion feature, allows borrowings up to a total of
$450.0 million, including the ability to add and fund additional
term loans (the Second Amended and Restated Facility).
The Second Amended and Restated Facility includes:
(i) the Revolving Facility which matures in August 2019, and
includes two 12-month extension options;
(ii) a five-year term loan facility in the aggregate principal
amount of $50.0 million (the 5-Year Term Loan) which matures in
March 2022;
(iii) a seven-year term loan facility in the aggregate principal
amount of $50.0 million (the 7-Year Term Loan) which matures in
March 2024; and
(iv) an accordion feature that provides the Company with
additional capacity, subject to the satisfaction of customary
terms and conditions, including obtaining additional commitments
from Lenders, of up to $200.0 million.
Each of the 5-Year Term Loan and the 7-Year Term Loan has a
delayed draw feature that is available in up to three (3) draws
within fifteen (15) months from March 29, 2017, subject to a
minimum draw of $10.0 million and pro forma compliance.
Amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility will bear annual
interest at a floating rate equal to (x) LIBOR plus (y) a margin
ranging from 1.75% to 2.75% (currently, 2.25%) and under the Term
Loans will bear annual interest at a floating rate equal to (x)
LIBOR plus (y) a margin ranging from 2.20% to 2.90% (currently
2.20% for the 5-Year Term Loan and 2.40% for the 7-Year Term
Loan). Payments under the Second Amended and Restated Facility
are interest only, with the full amount of the principal due at
maturity. The Second Amended and Restated Facility may be prepaid
at any time, without penalty.
The Companys ability to borrow under the Second Amended and
Restated Facility is subject to its ongoing compliance with a
number of customary affirmative and negative covenants, including
limitations with respect to liens, indebtedness, distributions,
mergers, consolidations, investments, restricted payments and
asset sales, as well as financial maintenance covenants. The
Second Amended and Restated Facility includes customary events of
default, the occurrence of which, subject to certain cure
periods, permits the Lenders to terminate commitments to lend
under the Second Amended and Restated Facility and accelerate
payment of all amounts outstanding thereunder.
The Company intends to enter into interest rate swap agreements
that fix the interest rates on the 5-Year Term Loan and 7-Year
Term Loan. Based on current conditions, this will result in fixed
interest rates under the 5-Year Term Loan and 7-Year Term Loan in
the range of 4.15% to 4.55% depending on the maturity, the
Companys leverage, and other factors.
