During the second quarter, we closed the acquisition of 37 high quality private pay senior living communities for approximately $763 million, 18 of which are leased and 19 of which are operated in a taxable REIT subsidiary structure.

“In addition, we announced a transaction involving our manager, RMR, whereby we acquired a 17.0% economic interest in our manager in exchange for $60.7 million and amended the management agreements with RMR to extend the terms for 20 years.

Recent Investment and Sales Activities:

As previously disclosed, on May 1, 2015, SNH completed the acquisition of 37 (out of a portfolio of 38) senior living communities with 3,352 living units for approximately $762.6 million. SNH amended the purchase agreement related to these communities to accommodate a delayed closing of one senior living community with 87 living units, which SNH expects to acquire before year end 2015. Nineteen of the 38 communities, with 2,206 living units, including the one community that SNH has not yet acquired, are leased to seven senior living operators. The remaining 19 communities, with 1,233 living units, were acquired using taxable REIT subsidiary, or TRS, structures. SNH terminated the pre-existing management agreements for 14 of these communities, with 838 living units, and entered into management agreements with Five Star Quality Care, Inc., or Five Star, to manage these communities. The remaining five communities, with 395 living units, continue to be managed by the current third party senior living operator. SNH financed this acquisition using cash on hand, borrowings under its revolving credit facility and the assumption of approximately $139.2 million of mortgage debt with a weighted average annual interest rate of 4.43%.

Also in May 2015, SNH acquired a newly constructed senior living community with 40 private pay independent living units located in Georgia for approximately $9.8 million, excluding closing costs. This community is

adjacent to another community that SNH owns which is managed by Five Star. This community and the community already owned are treated as one property, and are being operated as a single integrated community under the same management agreement.

In July 2015, SNH entered into an agreement to acquire one senior living community with 84 private pay assisted living units located in Georgia for approximately $18.3 million, excluding closing costs. SNH intends to lease this community to a third party senior living operator. This acquisition is expected to close in 2015.

In April 2015, SNH sold one MOB (four buildings) with an aggregate 323,541 square feet located in New Mexico for $1.5 million, excluding closing costs. SNH did not recognize a gain or loss on this sale. In July 2015, SNH sold one senior living community with 12 living units located in Iowa for $155,000, excluding closing costs. In August 2015, SNH sold one senior living community with 63 living units located in Wisconsin for $850,000, excluding closing costs. Any adjustments to net book value related to these sales will be recognized in the third quarter of 2015 when all of the costs of these sales are known.

As previously announced, on June 5, 2015, SNH acquired 5.3 million shares of Reit Management & Research Inc., or RMR Inc., for $60.7 million, excluding transaction costs. As payment for the shares, SNH issued 2.3 million of its common shares valued at the volume weighted average trading prices during the 20 days prior to the acquisition and paid the remainder of the purchase price in cash. Through SNH’s acquisition of the RMR Inc. shares, SNH indirectly acquired an economic ownership of 17.0% of Reit Management & Research LLC, or RMR LLC, SNH’s manager. SNH currently expects to distribute half of its RMR Inc. shares to its shareholders by year end 2015, but SNH will not distribute its RMR Inc. shares until a registration statement is declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC. In connection with entering into a transaction agreement with RMR Inc., SNH and RMR LLC entered into amended and restated business management and property management agreements, which, among other things, extend the terms of these agreements for 20 years.

Recent Financing Activities:

During the second quarter of 2015, SNH repaid mortgage notes encumbering seven properties with an aggregate principal balance of $30.6 million and a weighted average annual interest rate of 5.7%.

(1) SNH calculates FFO and Normalized FFO as shown above. 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 SNH. SNH’s calculation of Normalized FFO differs from NAREIT’s definition of FFO because SNH includes estimated percentage rent in the period to which SNH estimates that it relates rather than when it is recognized as income in accordance with GAAP, SNH includes estimated business management incentive fees, if any, only in the fourth quarter versus the quarter when they are recognized as expense in accordance with GAAP and SNH excludes acquisition related costs, gains and losses on early extinguishment of debt, gains and losses on lease terminations and losses on impairment of intangible assets, if any. SNH considers 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. SNH believes 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 its operating performance between periods and with other REITs. FFO and Normalized FFO are among the factors considered by SNH’s Board of Trustees when determining the amount of distributions to its shareholders. Other factors include, but are not limited to, requirements to maintain SNH’s status as a REIT, limitations in its revolving credit facility agreement, term loan agreement and public debt covenants, the availability of debt and equity capital, SNH’s expectation of its future capital requirements and operating performance and SNH’s expected needs and availability of cash to pay its obligations. FFO and Normalized FFO 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 SNH’s financial performance or liquidity, nor are these measures necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of SNH’s needs. These measures should be considered in conjunction with net income, operating income and cash flow from operating activities as presented in SNH’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Other REITs and real estate companies may calculate FFO and Normalized FFO differently than SNH does.

(2) In calculating net income in accordance with GAAP, SNH recognizes 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 SNH defers recognition of this revenue until the fourth quarter for purposes of calculating net income, it includes these estimated amounts in its 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.

(1) | The calculations of NOI and Cash Basis NOI exclude certain components of net income in order to provide results that are more closely related to SNH’s property level results of operations. SNH calculates NOI and Cash Basis NOI as shown above excluding properties classified as discontinued operations. SNH defines NOI as income from its real estate less its property operating expenses. NOI excludes amortization of capitalized tenant improvement costs and leasing commissions. SNH defines Cash Basis NOI as NOI less non cash straight line rent adjustments, lease value amortization and lease termination fees, if any. SNH considers NOI and Cash Basis NOI to be appropriate supplemental measures to net income because they may help both investors and management to understand the operations of SNH’s properties. SNH uses NOI and Cash Basis NOI internally to evaluate individual and company-wide property level performance, and it believes that NOI and Cash Basis NOI provide useful information to investors regarding its results of operations because these measures reflect only those income and expense items that are incurred at the property level and may facilitate comparisons of its operating performance between periods and with other REITs. NOI and Cash Basis NOI do not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or cash flow from operating activities determined in accordance with GAAP, or as indicators of SNH’s financial performance or liquidity, nor are these measures necessarily indicative of sufficient cash flow to fund all of SNH’s needs. These measures should be considered in conjunction with net income, operating income and cash flow from operating activities as presented in SNH’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Other REITs and real estate companies may calculate NOI and Cash Basis NOI differently than SNH does.
