SENIOR HOUSING PROPERTIES TRUST

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data or as otherwise stated)

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements of Senior Housing Properties Trust and its subsidiaries, or we, us, or our, are unaudited. Certain information and disclosures required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted. We believe the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. However, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, or our Annual Report. In the opinion of our management, all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All intercompany transactions and balances with or among our consolidated subsidiaries have been eliminated. Operating results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year. Reclassifications have been made to the prior year’s financial statements to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications were made to conform the prior periods’ rental income, property operating expenses, discontinued operations, general and administrative expenses, interest and other income and impairment of assets to the current classification. These reclassifications had no effect on net income or shareholders’ equity.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the condensed consolidated financial statements include purchase price allocations, useful lives of fixed assets and impairment of real estate and intangible assets.

Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, or FASB, issued Accounting Standards Update, or ASU, No. 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. This update amends the criteria for reporting discontinued operations to, among other things, raise the threshold for disposals to qualify as discontinued operations. This update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods, beginning after December 15, 2014, with early adoption permitted. We currently expect that, when adopted, this update will reduce the number of any future property dispositions to be presented as discontinued operations in our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which provides guidance for revenue recognition. This update is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016. We are currently in the process of evaluating the impact, if any, the adoption of this ASU will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Real Estate Properties

At June 30, 2014, we owned 372 properties (399 buildings) located in 39 states and Washington, D.C. We have accounted, or expect to account for, the following acquisitions as business combinations unless otherwise noted.

MOB Acquisitions:

In April 2014, we acquired one property (one building) leased to medical providers, medical related businesses, clinics and biotech laboratory tenants, or an MOB, for approximately $32,658, including the assumption of approximately $15,630 of mortgage debt, and excluding closing costs. This MOB is

SENIOR HOUSING PROPERTIES TRUST

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data or as otherwise stated)

located in Texas and includes 125,240 square feet of leasable space. We funded this acquisition using cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. In May 2014, we acquired one MOB (two buildings) for approximately $1,125,420, excluding closing costs. This MOB is located in Massachusetts and includes approximately 1,651,037 gross building square feet. We funded this acquisition using the proceeds of equity and debt offerings and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

MOB Acquisitions since January 1, 2014:

|  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Cash Paid |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Acquired |  |  |  |  |
|  |  |  | Number |  |  |  | plus |  |  |  |  |  | Acquired |  | Real Estate |  |  |  | Premium |

April 2014 |  | San Antonio, TX |  | 1 |  | 125 |  | $ | 32,932 |  | $ | 3,141 |  | $ | 26,421 |  | $ | 4,393 |  | $ | 10 |  | $ | 15,630 |  | $ | 1,013 |
May 2014 |  | Boston, MA |  | 1 |  | 1,651 |  | 1,124,031 |  | 52,643 |  | 944,362 |  | 245,511 |  | 118,485 |  | — |  | — |
|  |  |  | 2 |  | 1,776 |  | $ | 1,156,963 |  | $ | 55,784 |  | $ | 970,783 |  | $ | 249,904 |  | $ | 118,495 |  | $ | 15,630 |  | $ | 1,013 |

(1) These amounts include the cash we paid plus debt we assumed, if any, as well as other settlement adjustments with respect to the acquisitions but exclude closing costs. The allocation of the purchase price of our acquisitions shown above is based upon preliminary estimates of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Consequently, amounts preliminarily allocated to assets acquired and liabilities assumed may change from those used in these condensed consolidated financial statements.

In July 2014, we entered into an agreement to acquire one senior living community for approximately $7,000, excluding closing costs. The senior living community is located in Jackson, Wisconsin and includes 52 assisted living units. We expect that a subsidiary of Five Star Quality Care, Inc. will manage this community for our account pursuant to a long term management agreement. In this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we refer to Five Star Quality Care, Inc. and its applicable subsidiaries as Five Star.

Impairment

We periodically evaluate our properties for impairments. Impairment indicators may include declining tenant occupancy, weak or declining tenant profitability, cash flow or liquidity, our decision to dispose of an asset before the end of its estimated useful life, and legislative, market or industry changes that could permanently reduce the value of a property. If indicators of impairment are present, we evaluate the carrying value of the affected property by comparing it to the expected future undiscounted net cash flows to be generated from that property. If the sum of these expected future net cash flows is less than the carrying value, we reduce the net carrying value of the property to its estimated fair value.

As of June 30, 2014, we had seven senior living communities with 552 living units and two MOBs (five buildings) with 385,541 square feet categorized as properties held for sale. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded net impairment of assets charges of $334 to adjust the carrying value of three MOBs included in discontinued operations to their aggregate estimated net sale price. The nine properties are included in other assets in our condensed consolidated

5

SENIOR HOUSING PROPERTIES TRUST

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data or as otherwise stated)

balance sheets and have a net book value (after impairment) of approximately $13,249 at June 30, 2014. As of December 31, 2013, we had 10 senior living communities with 744 units and four MOBs (seven buildings) with 831,499 square feet categorized as properties held for sale, which were similarly recorded and categorized at June 30, 2014, except that three of the senior living communities and two of the MOBs were sold during the first and second quarter of 2014, as noted below. These properties are included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and had a net book value (after impairment) of approximately $27,888 at December 31, 2013. We decided to sell these properties due to underlying conditions in the markets where these properties are located. We classify all properties as held for sale in our condensed consolidated balance sheets that meet the applicable criteria for that treatment as set forth in the Property, Plant and Equipment Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification, or the Codification.

Results of operations for properties sold or held for sale are included in discontinued operations in our condensed consolidated statements of operations once the criteria for discontinued operations in the Presentation of Financial Statements Topic of the Codification are met. Summarized income statement information for the four MOBs (seven buildings) that meet the criteria for discontinued operations is included in discontinued operations as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |
|  | 2014 |  | 2013 |  | 2014 |  | 2013 |
Rental income |  | $ | 1,432 |  | $ | 2,574 |  | $ | 3,726 |  | $ | 5,095 |
Property operating expenses |  | (691 | ) | (862 | ) | (1,685 | ) | (1,773 | )
Depreciation and amortization |  | — |  | (199 | ) | — |  | (799 | )
Income from discontinued operations |  | $ | 741 |  | $ | 1,513 |  | $ | 2,041 |  | $ | 2,523 |

In January 2014, we sold a senior living community with 36 units that was previously classified as held for sale for $2,400 and recorded a gain on the sale of this property of approximately $156.

In April 2014, we sold one MOB (one building) with 210,879 square feet that is included in discontinued operations for $5,000 and recorded no gain or loss on the sale.

In June 2014, we sold two senior living communities with 156 units that were previously classified as held for sale for $4,500 and recorded a gain on the sale of these properties of approximately $2,396.

In June 2014, we sold one MOB (one building) with 235,079 square feet that is included in discontinued operations for $6,000 and recorded no gain or loss on the sale.

The senior living properties which we are offering for sale do not meet the criteria for discontinued operations as they are included within combination leases with other properties that we expect to continue leasing.

Note 4. Unrealized Gain / Loss on Investments

As of June 30, 2014, we owned 250,000 common shares of Equity Commonwealth (formerly known as CommonWealth REIT), or EQC, and 4,235,000 common shares of Five Star which are carried at fair market value in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheets. Cumulative other comprehensive income shown in our condensed consolidated balance sheets includes the net unrealized gain or loss on investments determined as the net difference between the value at quoted market prices of our EQC and Five Star shares as of June 30, 2014 ($26.32 and $5.01 per share, respectively) and our weighted average costs at the time we acquired these shares, as adjusted to reflect any share splits or combinations ($26.00 and $3.36 per share, respectively).

The 47 mortgaged properties (50 buildings) had a carrying value of $886,458 at June 30, 2014. We also had two properties subject to capital leases totaling $13,047 at June 30, 2014; these two properties had a carrying value of $18,403 at June 30, 2014.

We have a $750,000 unsecured revolving credit facility that is available for general business purposes, including acquisitions. The maturity date of our revolving credit facility is January 15, 2018 and, subject to the payment of an extension fee and meeting certain other conditions, we have an option to further extend the stated maturity date by an additional one year to January 15, 2019. The revolving credit facility agreement provides that we can borrow, repay and reborrow funds available under the revolving credit facility agreement until maturity, and no principal repayment is due until maturity. The revolving credit facility agreement includes a feature under which maximum borrowings under the facility may be increased to up to $1,500,000 in certain circumstances. The interest rate paid on borrowings under the revolving credit facility agreement is LIBOR plus a premium of 130 basis points, and the facility fee is 30 basis points per annum on the total amount of lending commitments. Both the interest rate premium and the facility fee are subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings. As of June 30, 2014, the interest rate payable on borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 1.42% and the weighted average interest rate for borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 1.42% for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2014. The weighted average interest rate for borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 2.56% and 1.86% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. We incurred interest expense and other associated costs related to our revolving credit facility of $969 and $1,880 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. As of both June 30, 2014 and August 4, 2014, we had no amounts outstanding and $750,000 available for borrowing by us.

Our revolving credit facility agreement provides for acceleration of payment of all amounts outstanding upon the occurrence and continuation of certain events of default, such as a change of control of us, which includes Reit Management & Research LLC, or RMR, ceasing to act as our business manager and property manager.

In April 2014, we sold $400,000 of 3.25% senior unsecured notes due 2019 and $250,000 of 4.75% senior unsecured notes due 2024, raising net proceeds of approximately $644,889, after underwriting discounts but before expenses. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually in arrears. We used the net proceeds of this offering for general business purposes, including funding the acquisitions described in Note 3.

On May 30, 2014, we entered into a term loan agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association and a syndicate of other lenders, pursuant to which we obtained a $350,000 unsecured term loan. Our term loan matures on January 15, 2020, and is prepayable without penalty at any time. In addition, our term loan includes a feature under which maximum borrowings may be increased to up to $700,000 in certain circumstances. Our term loan bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a premium of 140 basis points that is subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings. We used the net proceeds of our

term loan to repay amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facility, to repay existing mortgage notes and for general business purposes. As of June 30, 2014, the interest rate payable for amounts outstanding under our term loan was 1.55%. The weighted average annual interest rate for amounts outstanding on our term loan was 1.55% for the period from May 30, 2014 to June 30, 2014.

Our public debt indentures and related supplements and our credit facility agreement contain a number of financial and other covenants, including covenants that restrict our ability to incur indebtedness or to make distributions under certain circumstances and require us to maintain financial ratios and a minimum net worth.

In connection with the acquisitions discussed in Note 3 above, during the three months ended June 30, 2014, we assumed $15,630 of mortgage debt, which was recorded at a fair value of $16,643. This mortgage has a contractual interest rate of 6.28% and matures in July 2022. We recorded the assumed mortgage at its fair value, which exceeded its outstanding principal balance by $1,013. We determined the fair value of the assumed mortgage using a market approach based upon Level 3 inputs (significant other unobservable inputs) in the fair value hierarchy.

In June 2014, we repaid mortgage notes that encumbered two of our properties that had an aggregate principal balance of $35,300 and a weighted average interest rate of 5.8%.

Note 6. Shareholders’ Equity

On February 21, 2014, we paid a distribution to common shareholders of $0.39 per share, or approximately $73,386, that was declared on January 3, 2014 and was payable to shareholders of record on January 13, 2014.

On May 21, 2014, we paid a distribution to common shareholders of $0.39 per share, or approximately $73,397, that was declared on April 2, 2014 and was payable to shareholders of record on April 14, 2014.

On July 7, 2014, we declared a distribution payable to common shareholders of record on July 18, 2014, of $0.39 per share, or approximately $79,469. We expect to pay this distribution on or about August 21, 2014 using cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

We issued 30,900 and 50,837 common shares to RMR during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and 11,223 shares in July 2014, as part of its compensation under our business management agreement. See Note 10 for further information regarding this agreement.

In April 2014, we issued 15,525,000 common shares in a public offering, raising net proceeds of approximately $323,318, after underwriting discounts but before expenses. We used the net proceeds from this offering to repay borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility and for general business purposes, including the partial funding of the acquisitions described in Note 3.

On June 5, 2014, we granted 2,500 common shares valued at $24.50 per share, the closing price of our common shares on the New York Stock Exchange on that day, to each of our five Trustees.

Note 7. Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

The following table presents certain of our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring and non recurring basis at June 30, 2014 categorized by the level of inputs used in the valuation of each asset or liability.

|  |  |  | Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets |  | Significant Other Observable Inputs |  | Significant Unobservable Inputs |
Description |  | Total |  | (Level 1) |  | (Level 2) |  | (Level 3) |
Assets held for sale(1) |  | $ | 13,249 |  | $ | — |  | $ | 13,249 |  | $ | — |
Investments in available for sale securities(2) |  | $ | 27,797 |  | $ | 27,797 |  | $ | — |  | $ | — |
Unsecured senior notes(3) |  | $ | 1,827,753 |  | $ | 1,827,753 |  | $ | — |  | $ | — |
Secured debt(4) |  | $ | 735,341 |  | $ | — |  | $ | — |  | $ | 735,341 |

(1) Assets held for sale consist of nine of our properties that we expect to sell that are reported at fair value less costs to sell. We used offers to purchase these properties made by third parties or comparable sales transactions (Level 2 inputs) to determine the fair value of these properties. We have recorded cumulative impairments of approximately $22,545 to these properties in order to reduce their book value to fair value.

(2) Our investments in available for sale securities include our 250,000 common shares of EQC and 4,235,000 common shares of Five Star. The fair values of these shares are based on quoted prices at June 30, 2014 in active markets (Level 1 inputs).

(3) We estimate the fair values of our unsecured senior notes using an average of the bid and ask price of our outstanding six issuances of senior notes (Level 1 inputs) on or about June 30, 2014. The fair values of these senior note obligations exceed their aggregate book values of $1,742,893 by $84,860 because these notes were trading at premiums to their face amounts.

(4) We estimate the fair values of our secured debt by using discounted cash flow analyses and currently prevailing market terms at June 30, 2014 (Level 3 inputs). Because Level 3 inputs are unobservable, our estimated fair value may differ materially from the actual fair value.

In addition to the assets and liabilities described in the above table, our additional financial instruments include rents receivable, cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, other unsecured debt and other liabilities. The fair values of these additional financial instruments approximate their carrying values at June 30, 2014 based upon their liquidity, short term maturity, variable rate pricing or our estimate of fair value using discounted cash flow analyses and prevailing interest rates.

Note 8. Segment Reporting

We have four operating segments, of which three are separately reportable operating segments: (i) triple net leased senior living communities that provide short term and long term residential care and dining services for residents that are leased to third parties, (ii) managed senior living communities that provide short term and long term residential care and dining services for residents that are managed for our account and (iii) MOBs. Our triple net leased and managed senior living communities both include independent living communities, assisted living communities, skilled nursing facilities, or SNFs, and some communities that offer a combination of the independent and assisted living and skilled nursing services. Properties in the MOB segment include medical office, clinic and biotech laboratory buildings. The “All Other” category in the following table includes amounts related to corporate business activities and the operating results of certain properties that offer fitness, wellness and spa services to members.

Five Star is our former subsidiary. Rental income from Five Star represented 35.8% of our rental income for the three months ended June 30, 2014, and the properties Five Star leases from us represented 34.5% of our investments, at cost, as of June 30, 2014. As of June 30, 2014, Five Star also managed 44 senior living communities for our account.

Subject to the information in the following paragraph, financial information about Five Star may be found on the website of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, by entering Five Star’s name at http://www.sec.gov/edgar/searchedgar/companysearch.html.

Note 10. Related Person Transactions

Five Star: Five Star was formerly our 100% owned subsidiary. Five Star is our largest tenant, we are Five Star’s largest stockholder and Five Star manages several senior living communities for us. In 2001, we distributed substantially all of Five Star’s then outstanding shares of common stock to our shareholders. As of June 30, 2014, we owned 4,235,000 shares of common stock of Five Star, or approximately 8.7% of Five Star’s outstanding shares of common stock. One of our Managing Trustees, Mr. Barry Portnoy, is a managing director of Five Star. RMR provides management services to both us and Five Star. Five Star’s President and Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer are officers of RMR.

As of June 30, 2014, we leased 184 senior living communities to Five Star under four combination leases. Under Five Star’s leases with us, Five Star pays us rent consisting of minimum annual rent amounts plus percentage rent based on increases in gross revenues at certain properties. Five Star’s total minimum annual rent payable to us as of June 30, 2014 was $190,867, excluding percentage rent. We recognized total rental income from Five Star of $47,618 and $49,595 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $95,124 and $99,027 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our rents receivable from Five Star were $15,849 and $17,620, respectively, and those amounts are included in other assets in our condensed consolidated balance sheets. We had deferred estimated percentage rent under our Five Star leases of

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data or as otherwise stated)

$1,403 and $1,268 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $2,819 and $2,517 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. We determine percentage rent due under our Five Star leases annually and recognize it at year end when all contingencies are met. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, pursuant to the terms of our leases with Five Star, we purchased $17,423 and $15,901, respectively, of improvements made to properties leased to Five Star, and, as a result, the annual rent payable to us by Five Star increased by approximately $1,394 and $1,272, respectively.

In June 2013, we and Five Star agreed to offer for sale 11 senior living communities we lease to Five Star. Five Star’s rent payable to us will be reduced if and as these sales occur pursuant to terms set in our leases with Five Star. In August 2013, we sold one of these communities, a SNF, with 112 living units, for a sales price of $2,550, and as a result of this sale, Five Star’s annual minimum rent payable to us decreased by $255, or 10% of the net proceeds of the sale to us, in accordance with the terms of the applicable lease. In January 2014, we sold one senior living community located in Texas with 36 assisted living units, for a sale price of $2,400, and as a result of this sale, Five Star’s annual minimum rent payable to us decreased by $210, or 8.75% of the net proceeds of the sale to us, in accordance with the terms of the applicable lease. In June 2014, we sold two senior living communities located in Wisconsin with 156 SNF units, for a sale price of $4,500, and as a result of this sale, Five Star’s annual minimum rent payable to us decreased by $452, or 10% of the net proceeds of the sale to us, in accordance with the terms of the applicable lease. We can provide no assurance that the remaining seven senior living communities which we and Five Star have agreed to offer for sale will be sold, when any sales may occur or what the terms of any sales may provide.

On July 10, 2014, we and Five Star entered into the Fifth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Master Lease Agreement (Lease No. 4). Under this Lease No. 4 amendment, Five Star exercised the first of its existing options under Lease No. 4, extending the term from April 30, 2017 to April 30, 2032, and a third option for Five Star to extend the term of Lease No. 4 from May 1, 2047 to April 30, 2062, was added.

Five Star began managing communities for our account in 2011. We lease certain of our senior living communities that are managed by Five Star to our taxable REIT subsidiaries, or TRSs, and Five Star manages these communities pursuant to long term management agreements. As of June 30, 2014, Five Star managed 44 senior living communities for our account.

In connection with these management agreements, we and Five Star have entered into four combination agreements, or pooling agreements: three pooling agreements combine our management agreements for communities that include assisted living units, or the AL Pooling Agreements, and a fourth pooling agreement combines our management agreements for communities consisting only of independent living units, or the IL Pooling Agreement. The management agreements that are included in each of our pooling agreements are on substantially similar terms. Our first AL Pooling Agreement includes 20 identified communities and our second AL Pooling Agreement includes 19 identified communities. The third AL Pooling Agreement currently includes the management agreement for a community we acquired in November 2013. The IL Pooling Agreement currently includes management agreements for two communities that have only independent living units. The senior living community in New York and one senior living community in California described below that Five Star manages for our account are not included in any of our pooling agreements. Each of the AL Pooling Agreements and the IL Pooling Agreement aggregates the determination of fees and expenses of the various communities that are subject to such pooling agreement, including determinations of our return on our invested capital and Five Star’s incentive fees. We incurred management fees paid to Five Star of $2,433 and $2,281 for the three months

15

SENIOR HOUSING PROPERTIES TRUST

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data or as otherwise stated)

ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $4,857 and $4,576 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These amounts are included in property operating expenses in our condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income.

Our second AL Pooling Agreement previously included the management agreement pursuant to which Five Star manages our assisted living community known as Villa Valencia, which is located in California. On July 10, 2014, we entered into an agreement with Five Star, or the Villa Valencia Agreement, pursuant to which the management agreement for Villa Valencia was removed from the second AL Pooling Agreement as of July 1, 2014. We expect that the management agreement affecting the Villa Valencia community will not be included in any pooling agreement until after extensive renovations planned at that community are completed.

Also on July 10, 2014, we entered into an amendment to our management agreements with Five Star that include assisted living communities, or the Amendment to AL Management Agreements, to (i) extend the term of each of the management agreements between us and Five Star for Villa Valencia and the 19 assisted living communities currently included in the second AL Pooling Agreement from December 31, 2031 to December 31, 2033 and (ii) extend the term of the management agreement between us and Five Star for the senior living community known as Willow Pointe, which is currently included in the third AL Pooling Agreement, from December 31, 2031 to December 31, 2035. On July 10, 2014, we also entered into an amendment to our management agreements with Five Star that include only independent living communities, or the Amendment to IL Management Agreements, to extend the term of the management agreements between us and Five Star for two independent living communities from December 31, 2031 to December 31, 2032.

We own a senior living community in New York with 310 living units, a portion of which is managed by Five Star pursuant to a long term management agreement with us with respect to the living units at this community that are not subject to the requirements of New York healthcare licensing laws. In order to accommodate certain requirements of New York healthcare licensing laws, one of our TRSs subleases the portion of this community that is subject to those requirements to an entity, D&R Yonkers LLC, which is owned by our President and Chief Operating Officer and Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer. Five Star manages this portion of the community pursuant to a long term management agreement with D&R Yonkers LLC. Under the sublease agreement, D&R Yonkers LLC is obligated to pay rent only from available revenues generated by the subleased community. Our TRS is obligated to advance any rent shortfalls to D&R Yonkers LLC, and D&R Yonkers LLC is obligated to repay one of our TRSs only from available revenues generated by the subleased community.

We may enter into additional management arrangements with Five Star for our senior living communities and we may add the management agreements to our existing pooling agreements or enter into additional pooling agreements with Five Star. For example, as noted in Note 3, we have entered into an agreement to acquire an additional senior living community located in Wisconsin. If this acquisition is completed, we expect to lease this community to one of our TRSs and we expect to enter into a long term management agreement with Five Star to manage this community on terms similar to those management arrangements we currently have with Five Star for communities that include assisted living units and that this management agreement would be added to the third AL Pooling Agreement. This acquisition is subject to various conditions and there can be no assurance that this acquisition will be completed.

RMR: We have no employees. Personnel and various services we require to operate our business are provided to us by RMR. We have two agreements with RMR to provide management and administrative

16

SENIOR HOUSING PROPERTIES TRUST

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data or as otherwise stated)

services to us: (i) a business management agreement, which relates to our business generally, and (ii) a property management agreement, which relates to the property level operations of our MOBs.

One of our Managing Trustees, Mr. Barry Portnoy, is Chairman, majority owner and an employee of RMR. Our other Managing Trustee, Mr. Adam Portnoy, is the son of Mr. Barry Portnoy, and an owner, President, Chief Executive Officer and a director of RMR. Each of our executive officers is also an officer of RMR, and our President and Chief Operating Officer, Mr. David Hegarty, is a director of RMR. A majority of our Independent Trustees also serve as independent directors or independent trustees of other public companies to which RMR provides management services. Mr. Barry Portnoy serves as a managing director or managing trustee of a majority of the companies that RMR or its affiliates provide management services to and Mr. Adam Portnoy serves as a managing trustee of a majority of those companies. In addition, officers of RMR serve as officers of those companies.

Pursuant to our business management agreement with RMR, we recognized business management fees of $7,733 and $6,691 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $14,415 and $13,241 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These amounts are included in general and administrative expenses in our condensed consolidated financial statements. In accordance with the terms of our business management agreement, we issued 62,060 of our common shares to RMR for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as payment for 10% of the base business management fee we recognized for such period.

In connection with our property management agreement with RMR, the aggregate property management and construction supervision fees we recognized were $2,079 and $1,659 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $3,718 and $3,259 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. These amounts are included in property operating expenses or have been capitalized, as appropriate, in our condensed consolidated financial statements.

On May 9, 2014, we and RMR entered into amendments to our business management agreement and property management agreement. As amended, RMR may terminate the agreements upon 120 days’ written notice. Prior to the amendments, RMR could terminate the agreements upon 60 days’ written notice and could also terminate the property management agreement upon five business days’ notice if we underwent a change of control. The amendments also provide for certain termination payments by us to RMR in the event that we terminate the agreements other than for cause, including certain proportional adjustments to the termination fees if we merge with another real estate investment trust, or REIT, to which RMR is providing management services or if we spin-off a subsidiary of ours to which we contributed properties and to which RMR is providing management services both at the time of the spin-off and on the date of the expiration or termination of the agreement. Finally, as amended, RMR agrees to provide certain transition services to us for 120 days following an applicable termination by us or notice of termination by RMR.

AIC: We, RMR, Five Star, and four other companies to which RMR provides management services currently own Affiliates Insurance Company, or AIC, an Indiana insurance company. All of our Trustees and most of the trustees and directors of the other AIC shareholders currently serve on the board of directors of AIC. RMR provides management and administrative services to AIC pursuant to a management and administrative services agreement with AIC.

On March 25, 2014, as a result of the removal, without cause, of all of the trustees of EQC, EQC underwent a change in control, as defined in the shareholders agreement among us, the other shareholders of AIC and AIC. As a result of that change in control and in accordance with the terms of the shareholders agreement, on May 9, 2014, we and those other shareholders purchased pro rata the AIC

17

SENIOR HOUSING PROPERTIES TRUST

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data or as otherwise stated)

shares EQC owned. Pursuant to that purchase, we purchased 2,857 AIC shares from EQC for $825. Following these purchases, we and the other remaining six shareholders each owned approximately 14.3% of AIC.

In June 2014, we and the other shareholders of AIC renewed our participation in an insurance program arranged by AIC. In connection with that renewal, we purchased a one-year property insurance policy providing $500,000 of coverage, with respect to which AIC is a reinsurer of certain coverage amounts. We paid AIC a premium, including taxes and fees, of approximately $3,118 in connection with that policy, which amount may be adjusted from time to time as we acquire or dispose of properties that are included in the policy.

As of June 30, 2014, we had invested $6,054 in AIC since its formation in 2008. Although we own less than 20% of AIC, we use the equity method to account for this investment because we believe that we have significant influence over AIC as all of our Trustees are also directors of AIC. Our investment in AIC had a carrying value of $6,801 and $5,913 as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, which amounts are included in other assets on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. We recognized income of $118 and $79 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $21 and $155 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, related to our investment in AIC.

Directors’ and Officers’ Liability Insurance: In June 2014, we, RMR, Five Star and three other companies to which RMR provides management services extended our and their combined directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy, and we extended our separate directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy, in each case for an interim period. We paid an aggregate premium of approximately $51,000 for these extensions. Further information about those policies is contained in note 5 to our audited financial statements contained in our Annual Report.

Note 11. Income Taxes

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and as such, are generally not subject to federal and most state income taxation on our operating income provided we distribute our taxable income to our shareholders and meet certain organization and operating requirements. We do, however, lease certain managed senior living communities to our wholly owned TRSs that, unlike most of our subsidiaries, file a separate consolidated federal corporate income tax return and are subject to federal and state income taxes. Our consolidated income tax provision includes the income tax provision related to the operations of our TRSs and certain state income taxes we incur despite our REIT status. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, we recognized income tax expense of $155 and $346, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 we recognized income tax expense of $140 and $280, respectively.

Note 12. Pro Forma Information

During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we acquired two properties for an aggregate purchase price of $1,158,078, excluding closing costs. During the second quarter of 2014, we sold 15,525,000 of our common shares in a public offering raising net proceeds of approximately $323,318 after underwriting discounts but before expenses. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we also sold $400,000 of 3.25% senior unsecured notes due 2019 and $250,000 of 4.75% senior unsecured notes due 2024, raising net proceeds of approximately $644,889, after underwriting discounts but before expenses.

The following table presents our pro forma results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2014 as if these acquisitions and financing activities had occurred on January 1, 2014. This pro forma data is not necessarily indicative of what our actual results of operations would have been for the periods presented, nor does it represent the results of operations for any future period. Differences could result from numerous factors, including future changes in our portfolio of investments, changes in interest rates, changes in our capital structure, changes in property level operating expenses, changes in property level

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report. We are a REIT organized under Maryland law. At June 30, 2014, we owned 372 properties (399 buildings) located in 39 states and Washington, D.C., including nine properties (12 buildings) classified as held for sale. On that date, the undepreciated carrying value of our properties, net of impairment losses, was $6.2 billion, excluding properties classified as held for sale. As of June 30, 2014, 96% of our net operating income, or NOI, came from properties where a majority of the charges are paid from private resources.

(8) |  | Operating data for MOBs are presented as of June 30, 2014 and 2013; operating data for other properties, tenants and managers are presented based upon the operating results provided by our tenants and managers for the 12 months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, or the most recent prior period for which tenant operating results are available to us. Rent coverage is calculated as operating cash flow from our tenants’ operations of our properties, before subordinated charges, if any, divided by rents payable to us. We have not independently verified our tenants’ operating data. The table excludes data for periods prior to our ownership of some of these properties.
(9) |  | Five Star has not filed its 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K or its 2014 first quarter Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q with the SEC due to certain errors identified by Five Star’s management in connection with the preparation of its SEC periodic reports for prior periods. Because we do not yet know what impact these errors will have on Five Star’s results to be reported in those reports, we do not provide rent coverage for the 12 months ended March 31, 2014 for this tenant or the portfolio as a whole.

Average remaining lease term for all senior living community, MOB and wellness center properties (weighted by annualized rental income): 9.8 years

(1) Annualized rental income is rents pursuant to existing leases as of June 30, 2014, including estimated percentage rents, straight line rent adjustments, estimated recurring expense reimbursements for certain net and modified gross leases and excluding lease value amortization at certain of our MOBs and wellness centers. Excludes properties classified in discontinued operations.

(2) Excludes rent received from our managed senior living communities leased to our TRSs. If the NOI from our TRSs (three months ended June 30, 2014, annualized) were included in the foregoing table, the percent of total annualized rental income expiring would be: 2014 — 1.6%; 2015 — 3.6%; 2016 — 3.5%, 2017 — 6.1%; 2018 — 6.3%; 2019 — 5.6%; 2020 — 3.0%; 2021 — 1.3%; 2022 — 1.1% and thereafter — 67.9%. In addition, if our leases to our TRSs are included, the average remaining lease term for all properties (weighted by annualized rental income) would be 10.7 years.

During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we entered into MOB lease renewals for 291,000 square feet and new leases for 36,000 square feet, at weighted average rental rates that were 3.0% below rents previously charged for the same space. These leases produce average net annual rent of $25.88 per square foot. Average lease terms for leases entered into during the second quarter of 2014 were 6.4 years. Commitments for tenant improvement, leasing commission costs and concessions for leases we entered into during the second quarter of 2014 totaled $4.8 million, or $14.55 per square foot on average (approximately $2.27 per square foot per year of the lease term).

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (dollars and square feet in thousands, unless otherwise noted)

We have four operating segments, of which three are separately reportable operating segments: (i) triple net leased senior living communities that provide short term and long term residential care and dining services for residents that are leased to third parties, (ii) managed senior living communities that provide short term and long term residential care and dining services for residents that are managed for our account and (iii) MOBs. Our triple net leased and managed senior living communities both include independent living communities, assisted living communities, SNFs and some communities that offer a combination of the independent and assisted living and skilled nursing services. Properties in the MOB segment include medical office, clinic and biotech laboratory buildings. The “All Other” category in the following table includes amounts related to corporate business activities and the operating results of certain properties that offer fitness, wellness and spa services to members.

(2) All tenant operating data presented are based upon the operating results provided by our tenants for the 12 months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 or the most recent prior period for which tenant operating results are available to us. Rent coverage is calculated as operating cash flow from our triple-net lease tenants’ operations of our

properties, before subordinated charges, if any, divided by triple-net lease minimum rents payable to us. We have not independently verified our tenants’ operating data. The table excludes data for periods prior to our ownership of some of these properties.

(3) As noted above, Five Star has not filed its 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K or its 2014 first quarter Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. As a result, we do not provide rent coverage for the 12 months ended March 31, 2014 for this tenant or the portfolio as a whole.

Except as noted below under “Rental income”, we have not included a discussion and analysis of the results of our comparable properties data for the triple net leased senior living communities segment as we believe that a comparison of the results for our comparable properties for our triple net leased senior living communities segment is generally consistent from quarter to quarter and a separate, comparable properties comparison is not meaningful.

Rental income. Rental income decreased primarily due to the sale of the two rehabilitation hospitals during the fourth quarter of 2013, a senior living community in the third quarter of 2013, a senior living community in the first quarter of 2014 and two senior living communities in the second quarter of 2014. This decrease was partially offset by increased rents resulting from our purchase of approximately $36,461 of improvements made to our properties that are leased by Five Star since April 1, 2013. Rental income increased year over year on a comparable property basis by $1,195, primarily as a result of our improvement purchases at certain of the 218 communities we have owned continuously since April 1, 2013 and the resulting increased rent, pursuant to the terms of the leases.

Net operating income. NOI decreased because of the changes in rental income described above. We do not incur property operating expenses at our triple net leased senior living communities, as these expenses are paid by our tenants. Accordingly, rental income is the same as NOI. The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our triple net leased senior living communities segment is shown in the table above. Our definition of NOI and our reconciliation of consolidated NOI to net income are included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Depreciation expense. Depreciation expense recognized in this segment decreased as a result of the sale of the two rehabilitation hospitals during the fourth quarter of 2013, a senior living community in the third quarter of 2013, a senior living community in the first quarter of 2014 and two senior living communities in the second quarter of 2014. This decrease was partially offset by our purchase of improvements made to our properties that are leased by Five Star since April 1, 2013.

Interest expense. Interest expense for our triple net leased senior living communities arises from mortgage debt secured by certain of these properties. The decrease in interest expense is the result of the prepayment of four loans in the second quarter of 2013 that had a total principal balance of $10,377 and a weighted average interest rate of 6.1%, as well as the regularly scheduled amortization of our mortgage debt.

Gain on sale of properties. Gain on sale of properties is a result of the sale of two senior living communities in June 2014.

Residents fees and services. We recognize residents fees and services as services are provided. Our residents fees and services increased year over year on a comparable property basis primarily because of an increase in occupancy at the 39 communities we have owned continuously since April 1, 2013.

Property operating expenses. Property operating expenses consist of property management fees, real estate taxes, utility expense, salaries and benefit costs of property level personnel, repairs and maintenance expense, cleaning expense and other direct costs of operating properties. Property operating expenses decreased principally because of slight decreases in utility expenses, real estate taxes, insurance, and other direct costs of operating properties.

Net operating income. NOI increased because of the net changes in residents fees and services less the property operating expenses described above. The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our managed senior living communities segment, comparable properties, is shown in the table above. Our definition of NOI and our consolidated reconciliation of NOI to net income are included below in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Depreciation expense. Depreciation expense increased as a result of our purchase of improvements at these properties.

Interest expense. Interest expense for our managed senior living communities arises from mortgage debt secured by certain of these properties.

Depreciation / amortization expense. Depreciation / amortization expense increased primarily because of our MOB acquisitions since April 1, 2013.

Interest expense. Interest expense for our MOBs arises from mortgage debt secured by certain of these properties. The increase in interest expense is the result of our assumption of $15,630 of mortgage debt in connection with our acquisition of one MOB since April 1, 2013 with an interest rate of 6.3%, partially offset by the regularly scheduled amortization of our mortgage debt.

Income from discontinued operations. Income from discontinued operations relates to the two MOBs (five buildings) classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2014 as well as the two MOBs (two buildings) sold in the second quarter of 2014. The decrease in income is primarily due to the sale of two MOBs (two buildings) during the second quarter of 2014.

Impairment of assets from discontinued operations. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded impairment of assets adjustments of $387 to write the carrying value of two of our MOBs (two buildings) up to their net sale prices. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded impairment of assets charges of $27,896 to reduce the carrying value of four of our MOBs (seven buildings) to their estimated net sale prices.

Rental income. Rental income increased slightly as a result of an increase in same store occupancy from 94.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2013 to 94.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2014. Rental income includes non-cash straight line rent adjustments totaling $978 and $1,570 and net amortization of approximately $(723) and $(971) of above and below market lease adjustments for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Property operating expenses. Property operating expenses consist of property management fees, real estate taxes, utility expense, salaries and benefit costs of property level personnel, repairs and maintenance expense, cleaning expense and other direct costs of operating properties.

Net operating income. NOI reflects the net changes in rental income and property operating expenses described above. The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our MOB segment for comparable properties is shown in the table above. Our definition of NOI and our reconciliation of consolidated NOI to net income are included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Depreciation / amortization expense. Depreciation / amortization expense decreased primarily because of a reduction in amortization of acquired in place real estate leases and obligations that we amortize over the respective lease terms, partially offset by an increase in the amortization of leasing costs.

Interest expense. Interest expense for our MOBs arises from mortgage debt secured by certain of these properties. The decrease in interest expense is the result of the regularly scheduled amortization of our mortgage debt.

(1) All other operations includes our wellness center operations that we do not consider a significant, separately reportable segment of our business, home office business activities, and operating expenses that are not attributable to a specific reportable segment.

Rental income. Rental income includes non-cash straight line rent adjustments totaling approximately $138 and $365 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Rental income also includes net amortization of approximately $55 of acquired real estate leases and obligations in both the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

Depreciation expense. Depreciation expense remained consistent as we did not make any wellness center acquisitions or other capital improvements in this segment for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and we generally depreciate our long lived wellness center assets on a straight line basis.

General and administrative expense. General and administrative expenses consist of fees and expenses of our trustees, fees paid to RMR under our business management agreement, equity compensation expense, legal and accounting fees and other costs relating to our status as a publicly owned company. General and administrative expenses increased principally as a result of property acquisitions made since April 1, 2013.

Acquisition related costs. Acquisition related costs represent legal and due diligence costs incurred in connection with our acquisition activity during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. Acquisition related costs increased as a result of more MOB acquisition activity during the three months ended June 30, 2014 than the prior year period.

Interest and other income. The decline in interest and other income reflects reduced interest earned as a result of reduced dividend income from the 250,000 common shares of EQC that we own for the 2014 period compared with the 2013 period as well as less investable cash during the period.

Interest expense. Interest expense increased due to our issuance of $400,000 of 3.25% senior unsecured notes and $250,000 of 4.75% senior unsecured notes in April 2014 as well as our May 2014 term loan borrowing of $350,000 at LIBOR plus 140 basis points, partially offset by the prepayment of four mortgage loans in September 2013 encumbering four of our wellness centers for $10,377 with a weighted average interest rate of 6.1% and lower borrowing costs and fees under our revolving credit facility.

Loss on early extinguishment of debt. In June 2013, we prepaid four mortgage loans encumbering four of our properties for $10,377 that had maturity dates in 2013. As a result of the premiums paid to prepay these mortgages, we recorded an aggregate loss on early extinguishment of debt of $105.

Equity in earnings of an investee. Equity in earnings of an investee represents our proportionate share of earnings from AIC.

(2) All tenant operating data presented are based upon the operating results provided by our tenants for the 12 months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 or the most recent prior period for which tenant operating results are available to us. Rent coverage is calculated as operating cash flow from our triple-net lease tenants’ operations of our properties, before subordinated charges, if any, divided by triple-net lease minimum rents payable to us. We have not independently verified our tenants’ operating data. The table excludes data for periods prior to our ownership of some of these properties.

(3) As noted above, Five Star has not filed its 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K or its 2014 first quarter Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. As a result, we do not provide rent coverage for the 12 months ended March 31, 2014 for this tenant or the portfolio as a whole.

Except as noted below under “Rental income”, we have not included a discussion and analysis of the results of our comparable properties data for the triple net leased senior living communities segment as we believe that a comparison of the results for our comparable properties for our triple net leased senior living communities segment is generally consistent from period to period and a separate, comparable properties comparison is not meaningful.

Rental income. Rental income decreased primarily due to the sale of the two rehabilitation hospitals during the fourth quarter of 2013, a senior living community in the third quarter of 2013, a senior living community in the first quarter of 2014 and two senior living communities in the second quarter of 2014. This decrease was partially offset by increased rents resulting from our purchase of approximately $44,631 of improvements made to our properties that are leased by Five Star since January 1, 2013. Rental income increased year over year on a comparable property basis by $2,175, primarily as a result of our improvement purchases at certain of the 217 communities we have owned continuously since January 1, 2013 and the resulting increased rent, pursuant to the terms of the leases.

Net operating income. NOI decreased because of the changes in rental income described above. We do not incur property operating expenses at our triple net leased senior living communities, as these expenses are paid by our tenants. Accordingly, rental income is the same as NOI. The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our triple net leased senior living communities segment is shown in the table above. Our definition of NOI and our consolidated reconciliation of NOI to net income are included below in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Depreciation expense. Depreciation expense recognized in this segment decreased as a result of the sale of the two rehabilitation hospitals during the fourth quarter of 2013, a senior living community in the third quarter of 2013, a senior living community in the first quarter of 2014 and two senior living communities in the second quarter of 2014. This decrease was partially offset by our purchase of improvements made to our properties that are leased by Five Star since January 1, 2013.

35

Impairment of assets. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded impairment of assets charges of $4,371 to reduce the carrying value of four of our senior living properties classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2013 to their estimated net sale price.

Interest expense. Interest expense for our triple net leased senior living communities arises from mortgage debt secured by certain of these properties. The decrease in interest expense is the result of the prepayment of four loans in the second quarter of 2013 that had a total principal balance of $10,377 and a weighted average interest rate of 6.1%, as well as the regularly scheduled amortization of our mortgage debt.

Gain on sale of properties. Gain on sale of properties is a result of the sale of one senior living community in January 2014 and two senior living communities in June 2014.

The increase in residents fees and services primarily relates to the acquisition of five managed senior living communities since January 1, 2013.

Property operating expenses. Property operating expenses include expenses incurred at our managed senior living communities and they consist of management fees, real estate taxes, utility expense, salaries and benefits of property level personnel, repairs and maintenance expense, cleaning expense and other direct costs of these operating properties. The increase in property operating expenses primarily relates to the acquisition of five managed senior living communities since January 1, 2013.

Net operating income. NOI increased because of the changes in residents fees and services and property operating expenses described above. The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our managed senior living communities segment is shown in the table above. Our definition of NOI and our reconciliation of consolidated NOI to net income are included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Residents fees and services. We recognize residents fees and services as services are provided. Our residents fees and services increased year over year on a comparable property basis because of an increase in occupancy at the 39 communities we have owned continuously since January 1, 2013, partially offset by a decline in the average monthly rate charged at those communities in the 2014 period compared to the 2013 period.

Property operating expenses. Property operating expenses consist of property management fees, real estate taxes, utility expense, salaries and benefit costs of property level personnel, repairs and maintenance expense, cleaning expense and other direct costs of operating properties. Property operating expenses decreased principally because of slight decreases in utility expenses, real estate taxes, insurance, and other direct costs of operating properties.

Net operating income. NOI increased because of the net changes in residents fees and services less the property operating expenses described above. The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our managed senior living communities segment, comparable properties, is shown in the table above. Our definition of NOI and our consolidated reconciliation of NOI to net income are included below in “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Depreciation expense. Depreciation expense increased as a result of our purchase of improvements at these properties.

Rental income. Rental income increased primarily because of rents from eight MOBs (ten buildings) we acquired for approximately $1,275,553 since January 1, 2013. Rental income includes non-cash straight line

39

rent adjustments totaling $3,572 and $3,184 and net amortization of approximately $(263) and $(1,945) of above and below market lease adjustments for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Property operating expenses. Property operating expenses consist of property management fees, real estate taxes, utility expense, salaries and benefit costs of property level personnel, repairs and maintenance expense, cleaning expense and other direct costs of operating properties. Property operating expenses increased primarily because of our MOB acquisitions since January 1, 2013.

Net operating income. NOI increased because of the changes in rental income and property operating expenses described above. The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our MOB segment is shown in the table above. Our definition of NOI and our reconciliation of consolidated NOI to net income are included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Depreciation / amortization expense. Depreciation / amortization expense increased primarily because of our MOB acquisitions since January 1, 2013.

Interest expense. Interest expense for our MOBs arises from mortgage debt secured by certain of these properties. The increase in interest expense is the result of our assumption of $15,630 of mortgage debt in connection with our acquisition of one MOB since January 1, 2013 with an interest rate of 6.3%, partially offset by the regularly scheduled amortization of our mortgage debt.

Income from discontinued operations. Income from discontinued operations relates to the two MOBs (five buildings) classified as held for sale as of June 30, 2014 as well as the two MOBs (two buildings) sold in the second quarter of 2014. The decrease in income is primarily due to the sale of two MOBs (two buildings) during the second quarter of 2014.

Impairment of assets from discontinued operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded net impairment of assets charges of $334 to reduce the carrying value of one of our MOBs (four buildings) to their estimated net sale prices, partially offset by writing the carrying value of two of our MOBs (two buildings) up to their net sale prices. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded impairment of assets charges of $27,896 to reduce the carrying value of four of our MOBs (seven buildings) to their estimated net sale prices.

(1) Excludes properties classified in discontinued operations.

Rental income. Rental income increased slightly as a result of an increase in same store occupancy from 94.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2013 to 94.7% for the six months ended June 30, 2014. Rental income includes non-cash straight line rent adjustments totaling $2,195 and $2,988 and net amortization of approximately $(1,387) and $(1,887) of above and below market lease adjustments for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Property operating expenses. Property operating expenses consist of property management fees, real estate taxes, utility expense, salaries and benefit costs of property level personnel, repairs and maintenance expense, cleaning expense and other direct costs of operating properties. Property operating expenses increased principally because of increases in utility expenses from unusually cold temperatures, landscaping (which includes snow removal), repairs and maintenance expense and other direct costs of operating properties experienced during the 2014 period.

Net operating income. NOI reflects the net changes in rental income and property operating expenses described above. The reconciliation of NOI to net income for our MOB segment for comparable properties is shown in the table above. Our definition of NOI and our reconciliation of consolidated NOI to net income are included below under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures”.

Depreciation / amortization expense. Depreciation / amortization expense decreased slightly primarily because of a reduction in amortization of acquired in place real estate leases and obligations that we amortize over the respective lease terms, partially offset by an increase in the amortization of leasing costs.

Interest expense. Interest expense for our MOBs arises from mortgage debt secured by certain of these properties. The decrease in interest expense is the result of the regularly scheduled amortization of our mortgage debt.

(1) All other operations includes our wellness center operations that we do not consider a significant, separately reportable segment of our business, home office business activities, and operating expenses that are not attributable to a specific reportable segment.

Rental income. Rental income includes non-cash straight line rent adjustments totaling approximately $275 and $729 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Rental income also includes amortization of approximately $110 of acquired real estate leases and obligations in both the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

Depreciation expense. Depreciation expense remained consistent as there were no wellness center acquisitions or other capital improvements in this segment for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and we generally depreciate our long lived wellness center assets on a straight line basis.

General and administrative expense. General and administrative expenses consist of fees and expenses of our trustees, fees paid to RMR under our business management agreement, equity compensation expense, legal and accounting fees and other costs relating to our status as a publicly owned company. General and administrative expenses increased principally as a result of property acquisitions made since January 1, 2013, partially offset by property sales during the same period.

Acquisition related costs. Acquisition related costs represent legal and due diligence costs incurred in connection with our acquisition activity during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. Acquisition related costs increased as a result of more MOB acquisition activity during the six months ended June 30, 2014 than the prior year period.

42

Impairment of assets. During the six months ended June 30, 2013, we recorded an impairment of assets charge of $1,304 related to one property to reduce its carrying value to its estimated net sale price.

Interest and other income. The decline in interest and other income reflects reduced interest earned as a result of reduced dividend income from the 250,000 common shares of EQC that we own for the 2014 period compared with the 2013 period as well as less investable cash during the period.

Interest expense. Interest expense increased due to our issuance of $400,000 of 3.25% senior unsecured notes and $250,000 of 4.75% senior unsecured notes in April 2014 as well as our May 2014 term loan borrowing of $350,000 at LIBOR plus 140 basis points, partially offset by the prepayment of four mortgage loans in September 2013 encumbering four of our wellness centers for $10,377 with a weighted average interest rate of 6.1% and lower borrowing costs and fees under our revolving credit facility.

Loss on early extinguishment of debt. In June 2013, we prepaid four mortgage loans encumbering four of our wellness center properties for $10,377 that had maturity dates in 2013. As a result of the premiums paid to prepay these mortgages, we recorded an aggregate loss on early extinguishment of debt of $105.

Equity in earnings of an investee. Equity in earnings of an investee represents our proportionate share of earnings from AIC.

43

Non-GAAP Financial Measures (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts)

We provide below calculations of our funds from operations, or FFO, Normalized FFO and NOI for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. These measures should be considered in conjunction with net income, operating income and cash flow from operating activities as presented in our condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income and condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. These measures do not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as alternatives to net income, operating income or cash flow from operating activities, determined in accordance with GAAP, or as indicators of our financial performance or liquidity, nor are these measures necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of our needs. Other REITs and real estate companies may calculate FFO, Normalized FFO or NOI differently than we do.

Funds From Operations and Normalized Funds From Operations

We calculate FFO and Normalized FFO as shown below. FFO is calculated on the basis defined by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, which is net income, calculated in accordance with GAAP, excluding any gain or loss on sale of properties and impairment of real estate assets, plus real estate depreciation and amortization, as well as certain other adjustments currently not applicable to us. Our calculation of Normalized FFO differs from NAREIT’s definition of FFO because we include estimated percentage rent in the period to which we estimate that it relates rather than when it is recognized as income in accordance with GAAP and exclude acquisition related costs, gain or loss on early extinguishment of debt, gain or loss on lease terminations, estimated business management incentive fees and loss on impairment of intangible assets, if any. We consider FFO and Normalized FFO to be appropriate measures of operating performance for a REIT, along with net income, operating income and cash flow from operating activities. We believe that FFO and Normalized FFO provide useful information to investors because by excluding the effects of certain historical amounts, such as depreciation expense, FFO and Normalized FFO may facilitate a comparison of our operating performance between periods and with other REITs. FFO and Normalized FFO are among the factors considered by our Board of Trustees when determining the amount of distributions to our shareholders. Other factors include, but are not limited to, requirements to maintain our status as a REIT, limitations in our revolving credit facility agreement, term loan agreement and public debt covenants, the availability of debt and equity capital, our expectation of our future capital requirements and operating performance, and our expected needs and availability of cash to pay our obligations.

Our calculations of FFO and Normalized FFO for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 and reconciliations of net income, the most directly comparable financial measure under GAAP reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements, to FFO and Normalized FFO appear in the following table.

Distributions declared per share |  | $ | 0.39 |  | $ | 0.39 |  | $ | 0.78 |  | $ | 0.78 |

(1) Amounts represent estimated incentive fees under our business management agreement payable in common shares after the end of each calendar year calculated: (i) prior to 2014 based upon increases in annual Normalized FFO per share and (ii) beginning in 2014 based on common share total return. In calculating net income in accordance with GAAP, we recognize estimated business management incentive fee expense, if any, each quarter. Although we recognize this expense each quarter for purposes of calculating net income, we do not include these amounts in the calculation of Normalized FFO until the fourth quarter, which is when the actual expense amount for the year is determined. Adjustments were made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period Normalized FFO calculation.

(2) In calculating net income in accordance with GAAP, we recognize percentage rental income received for the first, second and third quarters in the fourth quarter, which is when all contingencies are met and the income is earned. Although we defer recognition of this revenue until the fourth quarter for purposes of calculating net income, we include these estimated amounts in our calculation of Normalized FFO for each quarter of the year. The fourth quarter Normalized FFO calculation excludes the amounts included during the first three quarters.

Property Net Operating Income (NOI)

We calculate NOI as shown below. We define NOI as income from our real estate less our property operating expenses. NOI excludes amortization of capitalized tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions. We consider NOI to be an appropriate supplemental measure to net income because it may help

45

both investors and management to understand the operations of our properties. We use NOI internally to evaluate individual and company wide property level performance, and we believe that NOI provides useful information to investors regarding our results of operations because it reflects only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and may facilitate comparisons of our operating performance between periods and with other REITs. The calculation of NOI excludes certain components of net income in order to provide results that are more closely related to our properties’ results of operations.

The calculation of NOI by reportable segment is included above in this Item 2. The following table includes the reconciliation of our consolidated NOI to net income, the most directly comparable financial measure under GAAP reported in our condensed consolidated financial statements, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Rental income and residents fees and services revenues from our leased and managed properties and borrowings under our revolving credit facility are our principal sources of funds to pay operating expenses, debt service and distributions to shareholders. We believe that our operating cash flow will be sufficient to meet our operating expenses and debt service and pay distributions on our shares for the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future thereafter. Our future cash flows from operating activities will depend primarily upon our ability to:

· maintain or improve the occupancy of, and the current rental rates at, our properties;

· control operating cost increases at our properties; and

47

· purchase additional properties which produce cash flows in excess of our cost of acquisition capital and property operating expenses.

Our Operating Liquidity and Resources

We generally receive minimum rents monthly or quarterly from our tenants, we receive percentage rents from our triple net leased senior living community tenants monthly, quarterly or annually and we receive residents fees and services revenues, net of expenses, from our managed senior living communities monthly. During the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we generated $179.0 million and $150.9 million, respectively, of cash from operations. The increase in our cash from operations over the prior year primarily resulted from our property acquisitions, as further described below.

Our Investment and Financing Liquidity and Resources

At June 30, 2014, we had $79.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and $750.0 million available to borrow under our revolving credit facility. We expect to use cash balances, borrowings under our revolving credit facility, net proceeds from our property sales, net proceeds from offerings of equity or debt securities and the cash flow from our operations to fund our operations, debt repayments, distributions, future property acquisitions and expenditures related to the repair, maintenance or renovation of our properties and for other general business purposes. We believe such amounts will be sufficient to fund these activities for the next 12 months and the foreseeable future thereafter.

In order to fund acquisitions and to meet cash needs that may result from timing differences between our receipts of rents and our desire or need to make distributions or pay operating or capital expenses, we maintain a $750.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility with a group of institutional lenders. The maturity date of our revolving credit facility is January 15, 2018 and, subject to the payment of an extension fee and meeting certain other conditions, we have an option to extend the stated maturity date of our revolving credit facility by one year to January 15, 2019. In addition, our revolving credit facility includes a feature under which maximum borrowings may be increased to up to $1.5 billion in certain circumstances. Borrowings under our revolving credit facility bear interest at LIBOR plus a premium, which was 130 basis points as of June 30, 2014. We also pay a facility fee of 30 basis points per annum on the total amount of lending commitments under our revolving credit facility. Both the interest rate premium and the facility fee are subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings. We can borrow, repay and reborrow funds available under our revolving credit facility until maturity, and no principal repayment is due until maturity. As of June 30, 2014, the interest rate payable on borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 1.42%. As of both June 30, 2014 and August 4, 2014, we had no amounts outstanding and $750.0 million available under our revolving credit facility. For more information, see Note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

When significant amounts are outstanding under our revolving credit facility or as the maturity dates of our revolving credit facility and term debts approach, we intend to explore alternatives for the repayment of amounts due. Such alternatives may include incurring additional debt, issuing new equity securities, extending the maturity date of our revolving credit facility and entering into a new credit facility. We currently have an effective shelf registration statement that allows us to issue public securities on an expedited basis, but it does not assure that there will be buyers for such securities.

In April 2014, we acquired one MOB (one building) for approximately $32.7 million, including the assumption of approximately $15.6 million of mortgage debt, and excluding closing costs. The MOB is located

48

in Texas and includes 125,240 square feet. We funded this acquisition using cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

In May 2014, we acquired one MOB (two buildings) for approximately $1.125 billion, excluding closing costs. This MOB is located in Massachusetts and includes 1,651,037 gross building square feet. We funded this acquisition using the proceeds of equity and debt offerings and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

As of June 30, 2014, we had nine properties (12 buildings) held for sale, including seven senior living communities with 552 units and two MOBs (five buildings) with 385,541 square feet. We decided to sell these properties because of what we believe to be unattractive conditions in the markets in which these properties are located or in which they operate. In aggregate, the seven senior living communities that are held for sale receive a majority of their revenues from government funded programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid payments. All seven of these communities are leased to Five Star and our rents from Five Star will be reduced if and as these sales occur, as determined pursuant to our leases with Five Star. The nine properties have a net book value (after impairment) of $13.2 million as of June 30, 2014. We are in the process of offering these nine properties for sale, but we can provide no assurance as to when or if sales of these properties will occur or what the terms of any sale may provide. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, we recorded net impairment of assets charges of $0.3 million to adjust the carrying value of three MOBs (one property being held for sale and two properties which we sold) included in discontinued operations to their aggregate estimated net sale price. For more information about these completed and pending acquisitions and potential sales, see Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements appearing in Item 1 above.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, pursuant to the terms of our existing leases with Five Star, we purchased $8.8 million and $17.4 million, respectively, of improvements to our properties leased to Five Star, and, as a result, the annual rent payable to us by Five Star increased by approximately $0.7 million and $1.4 million, respectively. We used cash on hand to fund these purchases.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, amounts capitalized for leasing costs and building improvements at our MOBs and our capital expenditures at our managed senior living communities were as follows (dollars in thousands):

|  | Three Months Ended June 30, |  | Six Months Ended June 30, |
|  | 2014 |  | 2013 |  | 2014 |  | 2013 |
MOB tenant improvements(1) (2) |  | $ | 1,330 |  | $ | 739 |  | $ | 3,137 |  | $ | 971 |
MOB leasing costs(1) (3) |  | 1,291 |  | 534 |  | 1,975 |  | 846 |
MOB building improvements(1) (4) |  | 1,862 |  | 1,729 |  | 3,034 |  | 2,361 |
Managed senior living communities capital improvements |  | 2,100 |  | 2,979 |  | 4,532 |  | 5,719 |
Development, redevelopment and other activities(5) |  | 5,843 |  | 3,996 |  | 8,266 |  | 6,632 |
Total capital expenditures |  | $ | 12,426 |  | $ | 9,977 |  | $ | 20,944 |  | $ | 16,529 |

(1) Excludes expenditures at properties classified in discontinued operations.

(2) MOB tenant improvements generally include capital expenditures to improve tenants’ space or amounts paid directly to tenants to improve their space.

(3) MOB leasing costs generally include leasing related costs, such as brokerage commissions and other tenant inducements.

49

(4) MOB building improvements generally include expenditures to replace obsolete building components and expenditures that extend the useful life of existing assets.

(5) Development, redevelopment and other activities generally include (i) major capital expenditures that are identified at the time of a property acquisition and incurred within a short period after acquiring the property; and (ii) major capital expenditure projects that reposition a property or result in new sources of revenue.

During the three months ended June 30, 2014, commitments made for expenditures in connection with leasing space in our MOBs, such as tenant improvements and leasing costs were as follows (dollars and square feet in thousands, except per square foot amounts):

|  | New Leases |  | Renewals |  | Total |
Square feet leased during the quarter |  | 36 |  | 291 |  | 327 |
Total leasing costs and concession commitments(1) |  | $ | 1,565 |  | $ | 3,194 |  | $ | 4,759 |
Total leasing costs and concession commitments per square foot(1) |  | $ | 43.47 |  | $ | 10.98 |  | $ | 14.55 |
Weighted average lease term (years)(2) |  | 12.3 |  | 5.8 |  | 6.4 |
Total leasing costs and concession commitments per square foot per year(1) |  | $ | 3.53 |  | $ | 1.89 |  | $ | 2.27 |

(1) Includes commitments made for leasing expenditures and concessions, such as tenant improvements, leasing commissions, tenant reimbursements and free rent. Excludes expenditures at properties classified in discontinued operations.

(2) Weighted based on annualized rental income pursuant to existing leases as of June 30, 2014, including straight line rent adjustments and estimated recurring expense reimbursements and excluding lease value amortization.

On February 21, 2014, we paid a distribution to common shareholders of $0.39 per share, or approximately $73,386, that was declared on January 3, 2014 and was payable to shareholders of record on January 13, 2014.

On May 21, 2014, we paid a distribution to common shareholders of $0.39 per share, or approximately $73,397, that was declared on April 2, 2014 and was payable to shareholders of record on April 14, 2014.

On July 7, 2014, we declared a distribution payable to common shareholders of record on July 18, 2014, of $0.39 per share, or approximately $79,469. We expect to pay this distribution on or about August 21, 2014 using cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

In April 2014, we issued 15,525,000 common shares in a public offering, raising net proceeds of approximately $323.3 million, after underwriting discounts but before expenses. We used the net proceeds from this offering to repay borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit facility and for general business purposes, including funding the acquisitions described above.

In April 2014, we sold $400.0 million of 3.25% senior unsecured notes due 2019 and $250.0 million of 4.75% senior unsecured notes due 2024, raising net proceeds of approximately $644.9 million, after underwriting discounts but before expenses. We used the net proceeds of this offering for general business purposes, including funding the acquisitions described above.

On May 30, 2014, we entered into an agreement pursuant to which we obtained a $350.0 million unsecured term loan. Our term loan matures on January 15, 2020, and is prepayable without penalty at any time. In addition, our term loan includes a feature under which maximum borrowings may be increased to up to $700.0 million in certain circumstances. Our term loan bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a premium of 140

50

basis points that is subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings. As of June 30, 2014, the interest rate payable on borrowings under our term loan was 1.55%. We used the net proceeds of our term loan to repay amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facility, to repay existing mortgage notes and for general business purposes.

We believe we will have access to various types of financings, including equity or debt offerings, to fund our future acquisitions and to pay our debts and other obligations as they become due. Our ability to complete and the costs of our future debt transactions will depend primarily upon market conditions and our credit ratings. We have no control over market conditions. Our credit ratings depend upon evaluations by credit rating agencies of our business practices and plans and, in particular, whether we appear to have the ability to maintain our earnings and service our debt funding obligations, to space our debt maturities and to balance our use of equity and debt capital so that our financial performance and leverage ratios afford us flexibility to withstand any reasonably anticipatable adverse changes. We intend to conduct our business activities in a manner which will continue to afford us reasonable access to capital for investment and financing activities. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to complete any equity or debt offerings or that our cost of any future public or private financings will not increase.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2014, we had no off balance sheet arrangements that have had or that we expect would be reasonably likely to have a future material effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

Debt Covenants

Our principal debt obligations at June 30, 2014 were: (1) six public issuances of unsecured senior notes, including: (a) $250.0 million principal amount at an annual interest rate of 4.30% due 2016, (b) $400.0 million principal amount at an annual interest rate of 3.25% due 2019, (c) $200.0 million principal amount at an annual interest rate of 6.75% due 2020, (d) $300.0 million principal amount at an annual interest rate of 6.75% due 2021, (e) $250.0 million principal amount at an annual interest rate of 4.75% due 2024 and (f) $350.0 million principal amount at an annual interest rate of 5.625% due 2042; (2) our $350.0 million principal amount term loan; and (3) $655.3 million aggregate principal amount of mortgages secured by 47 of our properties (50 buildings) with maturity dates from 2014 to 2043. We had no amounts outstanding under our unsecured revolving credit facility as of June 30, 2014. We also had two properties subject to capital leases totaling $13.0 million at June 30, 2014. Our unsecured senior notes are governed by an indenture. The indenture for our unsecured senior notes and related supplements, our revolving credit facility and our term loan contain a number of covenants which restrict our ability to incur debts, including debts secured by mortgages on our properties in excess of calculated amounts, require us to maintain a minimum net worth, restrict our ability to make distributions under certain circumstances and generally require us to maintain certain other financial ratios. As of June 30, 2014, we believe we were in compliance with all of the covenants under our indenture and related supplements, our revolving credit facility and our other debt obligations.

None of our indenture and related supplements, our revolving credit facility, our term loan or our other debt obligations contain provisions for acceleration which could be triggered by our debt ratings.

Our public debt indenture and related supplements contain cross default provisions, which are generally triggered upon default of any of our other debts of at least $10.0 million or, with respect to certain notes under such indenture and supplements, higher amounts. Similarly, our revolving credit facility and our term loan each contain a cross default provision that is triggered upon default of any other debts of $25.0 million or more that

51

are recourse debts and to any other debts of $75.0 million or more that are non-recourse debts. Our revolving credit facility agreement provides for acceleration of payment of all amounts outstanding upon the occurrence and continuation of certain events of default, such as a change of control of us, which includes RMR ceasing to act as our business manager and property manager.

Related Person Transactions

We have relationships and historical and continuing transactions with our Trustees, our executive officers, RMR, Five Star, AIC and other companies to which RMR provides management services and others affiliated with them. For example, we have no employees and personnel and various services we require to operate our business are provided to us by RMR pursuant to management agreements; and RMR is owned by our Managing Trustees. Also, as a further example, we have relationships with other companies to which RMR provides management services and which have trustees, directors and officers who are also trustees, directors or officers of us or RMR, including: Five Star is our former subsidiary, our largest tenant and a manager of certain of our senior living communities, and we are Five Star’s largest stockholder; D&R Yonkers LLC is owned by our executive officers and one of our TRSs subleases a portion of a senior living community we own to it in order to accommodate certain requirements of New York healthcare licensing laws; and we, RMR, Five Star, and four other companies to which RMR provides management services each currently own approximately 14.3% of AIC, and we and the other shareholders of AIC have property insurance in place providing $500.0 million of coverage pursuant to an insurance program arranged by AIC and with respect to which AIC is a reinsurer of certain coverage amounts. For further information about these and other such relationships and related person transactions, please see Note 10 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference. In addition, for more information about these transactions and relationships, please see elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including “Warning Concerning Forward Looking Statements” in Part I, and our Annual Report, definitive Proxy Statement for our 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, or our Proxy Statement, our Current Report on Form 8-K dated May 12, 2014, and our other filings with the SEC, including Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report, the sections captioned “Business,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Related Person Transactions” and “Warning Concerning Forward Looking Statements” of our Annual Report and the section captioned “Related Person Transactions” and the information regarding our Trustees and executive officers in our Proxy Statement. In addition, please see the section captioned “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report for a description of risks that may arise as a result of these and other related person transactions and relationships. Our filings with the SEC, including our Annual Report and our Proxy Statement, are available at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Copies of certain of our agreements with these related parties, including our business management agreement and property management agreement with RMR, our leases, forms of management agreements and related pooling agreements with Five Star, our agreements with D&R Yonkers LLC and its owners and our shareholders agreement with AIC and its shareholders, are publicly available as exhibits to our public filings with the SEC and accessible at the SEC’s website.

We believe that our agreements with RMR, Five Star, D&R Yonkers LLC and its owners and AIC are on commercially reasonable terms. We also believe that our relationships with RMR, Five Star, D&R Yonkers LLC and its owners and AIC and their affiliated and related persons and entities benefit us and, in fact, provide us with competitive advantages in operating and growing our business.

Impact of Government Reimbursement

As of June 30, 2014, approximately 96% of our NOI was generated from properties where a majority of the NOI is derived from private resources, and the remaining 4% of our NOI was generated from properties

52

where a majority of the NOI was derived from Medicare and Medicaid payments. We and our tenants operate facilities in many states and participate in federal and state healthcare payment programs, including the federal Medicare and state Medicaid programs for services in SNFs and other similar facilities, state Medicaid programs for services in assisted living communities, and other federal and state healthcare payment programs. Because of the current federal budget deficit and other federal spending priorities and challenging state fiscal conditions, there have been numerous recent legislative and regulatory actions or proposed actions with respect to federal Medicare rates and state Medicaid rates and federal payments to states for Medicaid programs. Examples of these, and other information regarding such programs, are provided below as well as under the caption “Business—Government Regulation and Reimbursement” in our Annual Report.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, issued updated Medicare prospective payment system rates for SNFs effective October 1, 2013, which CMS estimates will result in a net increase of approximately 1.3% in aggregate Medicare payments for SNFs in federal fiscal year 2014. On May 1, 2014, CMS released its proposed rule for the Medicare prospective payment system for SNFs for federal fiscal year 2015. As part of this rule, CMS proposes to apply a net increase of approximately 2.0% to Medicare payment rates for SNFs, which takes into account a 2.4% market basket increase for inflation reduced by a 0.4% productivity adjustment and results in an aggregate increase of $750 million in payments to SNFs from federal fiscal year 2014.

On April 1, 2014, the Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014, or PAMA, extended the Medicare outpatient therapy cap exception process through March 31, 2015, further postponing the implementation of firm limits on Medicare payments for outpatient therapies. PAMA also extended the 0.5% increase to the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule, or MPFS, rates through December 31, 2014 and provided no increase in the MPFS rates, to which Medicare outpatient therapy rates are tied, in the period between January 1, 2015 and March 31, 2015. Unless further delayed, the MPFS rates are scheduled to be reduced by up to 24% effective April 1, 2015. Additionally, PAMA established a SNF value-based purchasing program. Under this program, the United States Department of Health and Human Services will assess SNFs based on hospital readmissions measures and make these assessments available to the public no later than October 1, 2017. Beginning in federal fiscal year 2019, SNFs will face a 2% withholding of SNF payments and will receive incentive payments based on the higher of their performance or improvement on certain hospital readmission measures. The collective amount of incentive payments to all SNFs are anticipated to be between 50% and 70% of the total payment amounts withheld. We are unable to predict the impact on us of these or other recent legislative and regulatory actions or proposed actions with respect to federal Medicare rates, state Medicaid rates, and the federal payments to states for Medicaid programs.

Under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act, or collectively, the ACA, the federal government will pay for 100% of a state’s Medicaid expansion costs for the first three years (2014-2016) and gradually reduce its subsidy to 90% for 2020 and future years. As of June 10, 2014, 21 states have elected not to broaden Medicaid eligibility under the ACA at this time, and three remain undecided; those states not participating in Medicaid expansion are forgoing the federal funds that would otherwise be available for that purpose.

The ACA also includes various provisions affecting Medicare and Medicaid providers, including expanded public disclosure requirements for SNFs and other providers, enforcement reforms, and increased funding for Medicare and Medicaid program integrity control initiatives. The ACA has resulted in several changes to existing healthcare fraud and abuse laws, established additional enforcement tools and funding to the government, and provided for increased cooperation between agencies by establishing mechanisms for sharing information relating to noncompliance. Furthermore, the ACA provides for enhanced criminal and administrative penalties for noncompliance. We are unable to predict the impact on our tenants and our

53

managers of the insurance reforms, payment reforms, and healthcare delivery systems reforms contained in and to be developed pursuant to the ACA. Expanded insurance availability could provide more paying customers to our tenants and managers. On the other hand, if the changes to be implemented under the ACA result in reduced payments for the services that our tenants or our managers provide or the failure of Medicare, Medicaid or insurance payment rates to cover our tenants’ costs, including the rents and management fees that they pay, our future financial results could be adversely and materially affected.

We cannot estimate the type and magnitude of the potential regulatory changes discussed above, but they may have a material adverse effect on the ability of our tenants to pay us rent, the profitability of our managed senior living communities and the values of our properties. The changes implemented or to be implemented could result in the failure of Medicare, Medicaid or private payment rates to cover our or our tenants’ costs of providing required services to residents, in reductions in payments or other circumstances that could have a material adverse effect on the ability of our tenants to pay rent to us, the profitability of our managed senior living communities and the values of our properties.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to risks associated with market changes in interest rates. We manage our exposure to this market risk by monitoring available financing alternatives. Our strategy to manage exposure to changes in interest rates has not materially changed since December 31, 2013. Other than as described below, we do not currently foresee any significant changes in our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates or in how we manage this exposure in the near future.

(1) The principal balances and interest rates are the amounts stated in the applicable contracts. In accordance with GAAP, our carrying values and recorded interest expense may differ from these amounts because of market conditions at the time we assumed these debts. This table does not include obligations under capital leases.

No principal repayments are due under our unsecured notes or bonds until maturity. Our mortgages require principal and interest payments through maturity pursuant to amortization schedules. Because these debts bear interest at a fixed rate, changes in market interest rates during the term of these debts will not affect

55

our interest obligations. If these debts were refinanced at interest rates which are 100 basis points higher or lower than shown above, our annual interest cost would increase or decrease by approximately $24.1 million.

Changes in market interest rates would affect the fair value of our fixed rate debt obligations; increases in market interest rates decrease the fair value of our fixed rate debt, while decreases in market interest rates increase the fair value of our fixed rate debt. Based on the balances outstanding at June 30, 2014, and discounted cash flow analyses through the respective maturity dates and assuming no other changes in factors that may affect the fair value of our fixed rate debt obligations, a hypothetical immediate 100 basis point change in interest rates would change the fair value of those obligations by approximately $26.0 million.

Our unsecured senior notes and some of our mortgages contain provisions that allow us to make repayments earlier than the stated maturity date. In some cases, we are not allowed to make early repayment prior to a cutoff date and we are generally allowed to make prepayments only at a premium equal to a make whole amount, as defined, which is generally designed to preserve a stated yield to the noteholder. In the past, we have repurchased and retired some of our outstanding debts and we may do so again in the future. These prepayment rights and our ability to repurchase and retire outstanding debt may afford us opportunities to mitigate the risk of refinancing our debts at maturity at higher rates by refinancing prior to maturity.

At June 30, 2014, our current floating rate obligations consisted of our $750.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility, under which we had no outstanding borrowings, and our $350.0 million unsecured term loan. Our revolving credit facility matures in January 2018, and, subject to our meeting certain conditions, including our payment of an extension fee, we have the option to extend the stated maturity date by one year to January 2019. No principal repayments are required under our revolving credit facility prior to maturity, and prepayments may be made, and redrawn subject to conditions, at any time without penalty. Our term loan matures on January 15, 2020, and is prepayable without penalty at any time. In addition, our term loan includes a feature under which maximum borrowings may be increased to up to $700.0 million in certain circumstances.

Borrowings under our revolving credit facility and term loan are in U.S. dollars and bear interest at LIBOR plus a premium that is subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings. Accordingly, we are vulnerable to changes in U.S. dollar based short term rates, specifically LIBOR. In addition, upon renewal or refinancing of our revolving credit facility or our term loan, we are vulnerable to increases in interest rate premiums due to market conditions or our perceived credit risk. Generally, a change in interest rates would not affect the value of our floating rate debt but would affect our operating results.

The following table presents the impact a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would have on our annual floating rate interest expense as of June 30, 2014 (dollars in thousands):

|  | Impact of Changes in Interest Rates |  | Annual |
|  | Interest Rate |  | Outstanding Debt |  | Total Interest Expense Per Year |  | Earnings per Share Impact (1) |
At June 30, 2014 |  | 1.55% |  | $ | 350,000 |  | $ | 5,425 |  | $ | 0.03 |
100 basis point increase |  | 2.55% |  | $ | 350,000 |  | $ | 8,925 |  | $ | 0.05 |

(1) Based on weighted average number of shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

The following table presents the impact a 100 basis point increase in interest rates would have on our annual floating rate interest expense as of June 30, 2014 if we were fully drawn on our revolving credit facility and our term loan remained outstanding (dollars in thousands):

56

|  | Impact of Changes in Interest Rates |
|  | Interest Rate(1) |  | Outstanding Debt |  | Total Interest Expense Per Year |  | Annual Earnings per Share Impact(2) |
At June 30, 2014 |  | 1.46% |  | $ | 1,100,000 |  | $ | 16,060 |  | $ | 0.08 |
100 basis point increase |  | 2.46% |  | $ | 1,100,000 |  | $ | 27,060 |  | $ | 0.14 |

(1) Weighted based on the respective interest rates and outstanding borrowings under our credit agreement (assuming fully drawn) and term loan as of June 30, 2014.

(2) Based on weighted average number of shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2014.

The foregoing tables show the impact of an immediate change in floating interest rates. If interest rates were to change gradually over time, the impact would be spread over time. Our exposure to fluctuations in floating interest rates will increase or decrease in the future with increases or decreases in the outstanding amount of our borrowings under our revolving credit facility or other floating rate debt.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Managing Trustees, President and Chief Operating Officer and Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15. Based upon that evaluation, our Managing Trustees, President and Chief Operating Officer and Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
