Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On April 19, 2018, Global Medical REIT Inc. (the “Company”), through a wholly-owned subsidiary of Global Medical REIT L.P., the Company’s operating partnership (the “OP”), closed on the acquisition of an aggregate 155,600 square-foot portfolio of four medical office buildings (the “Belpre Portfolio”) and a right of first refusal to purchase a fifth, yet to be built, medical office building on the same campus. The aggregate purchase price of the Belpre Portfolio was $64.2 million, $5.5 million of which was paid in the form of common units (“OP Units”) of the OP, at a per unit price of $9.00. The Company previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on March 7, 2018 that it had entered into a purchase agreement (the “Belpre Purchase Agreement”) with the Minnite Family, LLC, a West Virginia limited liability company; Belpre I, LLC, a West Virginia limited liability company; Belpre II, LLC, a West Virginia limited liability company; Belpre III, LLC, a West Virginia limited liability company and Belpre IV, LLC, a West Virginia limited liability company (collectively, the “Belpre Seller”), to acquire the Belpre Portfolio.

 

Upon the closing of the acquisition of the Belpre Portfolio, the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of the OP, assumed the Belpre Seller’s interest, as lessor, in four triple-net leases (collectively, the “Belpre Portfolio Leases”) with Marietta Memorial Hospital, a subsidiary of Memorial Health System. The Belpre Portfolio Leases have a weighted average remaining lease term of approximately 11.35 years, with each of the Belpre Portfolio Leases containing three, five-year tenant renewal options. The aggregate initial annual rent for the Belpre Portfolio is approximately $5.1 million, broken down as follows:

 

·Building I – current annual rent of approximately $1.2 million ($23.61 per square foot), subject to $50,300 increases every five years, with the next increase due to go into effect in 2021.
·Building II – current annual rent of approximately $0.6 million ($22.50 per square foot), subject to $25,000 increases every five years, with the next increase due to go into effect in 2018.
·Building III – current annual rent of approximately $0.8 million ($33.17 per square foot), subject to $25,000 increases every five years, with the next increase due to go into effect in 2022.
·Building IV – current annual rent of approximately $2.5 million ($45.35 per square foot), subject to 10% increases every five years, with the next increase due to go into effect in 2019.

 

The above description of the terms and conditions of the Belpre Portfolio Leases is only a summary and is not intended to be a complete description of their terms and conditions. All of the terms and conditions of the Belpre Portfolio Leases are set forth in the Belpre Portfolio Leases that are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
