1. Organization

Medical Properties Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was formed on August 27, 2003 under the General Corporation Law of Maryland for the purpose of engaging in the business of investing in, owning, and leasing commercial real estate. Our operating partnership subsidiary, MPT Operating Partnership, L.P. (the “Operating Partnership”), through which we conduct all of our operations, was formed in September 2003. Through another wholly-owned subsidiary, Medical Properties Trust, LLC, we are the sole general partner of the Operating Partnership. At present, we directly own substantially all of the limited partnership interests in the Operating Partnership.

We have operated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) since April 6, 2004, and accordingly, elected REIT status upon the filing in September 2005 of our calendar year 2004 federal income tax return. Accordingly, we will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax, provided that we continue to qualify as a REIT and our distributions to our stockholders equal or exceed our taxable income. Certain activities we undertake must be conducted by entities which we elected to be treated as taxable REIT subsidiaries (“TRS”). Our TRSs are subject to both federal and state income taxes.

Our primary business strategy is to acquire and develop real estate and improvements, primarily for long-term lease to providers of healthcare services such as operators of general acute care hospitals, inpatient physical rehabilitation hospitals, long-term acute care hospitals, surgery centers, centers for treatment of specific conditions such as cardiac, pulmonary, cancer, and neurological hospitals, and other healthcare-oriented facilities. We manage our business as a single business segment.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements : The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for interim financial information, including rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 2011, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011. The condensed consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2010 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.

For further information about significant accounting policies, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2010.

3. Real Estate and Lending Activities

Acquisitions

On January 4, 2011, we acquired the real estate of the 19-bed, 4-year old Gilbert Hospital in a suburb of Phoenix, Arizona area for $17.1 million. Gilbert Hospital is operated by affiliates of Visionary Health, LLC, the same group that we expect will also operate the hospital that we are currently developing in Florence, Arizona. We acquired this asset subject to an existing lease that expires in May 2022.

On January 31, 2011, we acquired for $23.5 million the real estate of the 60-bed Atrium Medical Center at Corinth in the Dallas area, a long-term acute care hospital that was completed in 2009 and is subject to a lease that expires in June 2024. In addition, through one of our affiliates, we invested $1.3 million to acquire approximately 19% of a joint venture arrangement with an affiliate of Vibra Healthcare, LLC (“Vibra”) that will manage and has acquired a 51% interest in the operations of the facility. We also made a $5.2 million working capital loan to the joint venture. The former operators of the hospital, comprised primarily of local physicians, retained ownership of 49% of the operating entity.

On February 4, 2011, we purchased for $58 million the real estate of Bayonne Medical Center, a 6-story, 278-bed acute care hospital in the New Jersey area of metropolitan New York, and leased the facility to the operator under a 15-year lease, with six 5-year extension options. The operator is an affiliate of a private hospital operating company that acquired the hospital in 2008.

On February 9, 2011, we acquired the real estate of the 306-bed Alvarado Hospital in San Diego, California for $70 million from Prime Healthcare Services, Inc. (“Prime”). Prime is the operator of the facility and will lease the facility under a 10-year lease that provides, under certain conditions for lease extensions.

On February 14, 2011, we completed the acquisition of the Northland LTACH Hospital located in Kansas City, a 35-bed hospital that opened in April 2008 and has a lease that expires in 2028. This hospital was part of a three property acquisition announced in December 2010 and is currently being operated by RehabCare. The purchase price of this hospital was $19.5 million, which included the assumption of a $16 million existing mortgage loan that matures in January 2018.

We funded these acquisitions using cash on-hand and proceeds from our existing revolving credit facilities.

As part of these acquisitions, we purchased the following assets (dollar amounts in thousands):


Land	$	16,151
Building		157,834
Intangible lease assets — subject to amortization (weighted average useful life of 13.3 years)		14,093

Total	$	188,078

From the respective acquisition dates, these five acquired hospitals contributed $3.2 million of revenue and $2.0 million of income (excluding related acquisition expenses) for the three months ended March 31, 2011. In addition, we incurred $2.0 million of acquisition related costs in the 2011 first quarter, of which $1.6 million related to acquisitions consummated as of March 31, 2011. The purchase price allocations attributable to the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed related to the acquisitions made during the quarter ended March 31, 2011 are preliminary as we are waiting on additional information to perform our final analysis. When all relevant information is obtained, resulting changes, if any, to our provisional purchase price allocations will be retrospectively adjusted to reflect new information obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed as of the respective acquisition dates that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of those dates.

The results of operations for each of the properties acquired are included in our consolidated results from the effective date of each acquisition. The following table sets forth certain unaudited pro forma consolidated financial data for 2011 and 2010, as if each significant acquisition in 2011 was consummated on the same terms at the beginning of 2010. Supplemental pro forma earnings were adjusted to exclude $1.6 million and $0.1 million of acquisition-related costs on consummated deals incurred in 2011 and 2010, respectively (dollar amounts in thousands except per share data).

Leasing Operations

In March 2010, we re-leased our Covington facility, located in Covington, Louisiana. The lease has a fixed term of 15 years with an option, at the lessee’s discretion, to extend the term for three additional periods of five years each. Under the terms of the lease, rent during 2010 was based on an annual rate of $1.4 million, and on January 1, 2011, rent began increasing annually by 2%. At the end of each term, the tenant has the right to purchase the facility at a price generally equivalent to the greater of our undepreciated cost and fair market value. Separately, we also obtained an interest in the operations of the tenant whereby we may receive additional consideration based on the profitability of such operations.

As of March 31, 2011, we have advanced approximately $28 million to the operator/lessee of Monroe Hospital in Bloomington, Indiana pursuant to a working capital loan agreement, with no additional advances in the first quarter of 2011. In addition, as of March 31, 2011, we have $12.5 million of rent, interest and other charges owed to us by the operator, of which $5.4 million of interest receivables are significantly more than 90 days past due. Because the operator has not made all payments required by the working capital loan agreement and the related real estate lease agreement, we consider the loan to be impaired. During the first quarter of 2010, we evaluated alternative strategies for the recovery of our advances and accruals and at that time determined that the future cash flows of the current tenant or related collateral

would, more likely than not, result in less than a full recovery of our loan advances. Accordingly, we recorded a $12 million charge in the 2010 first quarter to recognize the estimated impairment of the working capital loan. During the third quarter of 2010, we determined that it was reasonably likely that the existing tenant would be unable to make certain lease payments that become due in future years. Accordingly, we recorded a valuation allowance for unbilled straight-line rent in the amount of $2.5 million. At March 31, 2011, our net investment (exclusive of the related real estate) of $28.7 million is our maximum exposure to Monroe and the amount is deemed collectible/recoverable. In making this determination, we considered our first priority secured interest in approximately (i) $4 million in hospital patient receivables, (ii) cash balances of approximately $4 million, and (iii) 100% of the membership interests of the operator/lessee and our assessment of the realizable value of our other collateral.

We continue to evaluate possible operating strategies for the Monroe hospital. We have entered into a forbearance agreement with the operator whereby we have generally agreed, under certain conditions, not to fully exercise our rights and remedies under the lease and loan agreements during limited periods. We have not committed to the adoption of a plan to transition ownership or management of the Monroe hospital to any new operator, and there is no assurance that any such plan will be completed. Moreover, there is no assurance that any plan that we ultimately pursue will not result in additional charges for further impairment of our working capital loan. We have not recognized any interest income on the Monroe loan since it was considered impaired in the 2010 first quarter.

For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, revenue from affiliates of Prime (including rent and interest from mortgage and working capital loans) accounted for 30.4% and 33.9%, respectively, of total revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, revenue from Vibra (including rent and interest from working capital loans) accounted for 12.5% and 14.2%, respectively, of total revenue.

As of March 31, 2011, principal payments due on our debt (which exclude the effects of any discounts recorded) are as follows (dollar amounts in thousands):


2011	$	19,627
2012		41,332

To fund the acquisitions disclosed in Note 3, we used cash on-hand, borrowed $98.4 million on our revolving credit facilities, and assumed a $16 million mortgage loan. This mortgage loan requires monthly principal and interest payments based on a 30-year amortization period. The mortgage loan has a fixed rate at 6.2%, matures on January 1, 2018 and can be prepaid after January 1, 2013, subject to a certain prepayment premium.

During the second quarter 2010, we entered into an interest rate swap to fix $65 million of our $125 million senior notes, starting July 31, 2011 (date on which the interest rate is scheduled to turn variable) through maturity date (or July 2016), at a rate of 5.507%. We also entered into an interest rate swap to fix $60 million of our senior notes starting October 31, 2011 (date on which the related interest rate is scheduled to turn variable) through the maturity date (or October 2016) at a rate of 5.675%. At March 31, 2011, the fair value of the interest rate swaps is $3.1 million, which is reflected in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

We account for our interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of our swaps is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income/loss on the balance sheet until the underlying debt matures while the ineffective portion is recorded through earnings. We estimate the fair value of interest rate swaps using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted fixed cash payments and the discounted expected variable cash receipts. The variable cash receipts are based on an expectation of interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves. In addition, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated in the fair values to account for potential nonperformance risk, both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk. We did not have any hedge ineffectiveness in the periods; therefore, there was no income statement effect recorded during the three month period ended March 31, 2011.

Our debt facilities impose certain restrictions on us, including restrictions on our ability to: incur debts; grant liens; provide guarantees in respect of obligations of any other entity; make redemptions and repurchases of our capital stock; prepay, redeem or repurchase debt; engage in mergers or consolidations; enter into affiliated transactions; dispose of real estate; and change our business. In addition, the agreements governing our debt facilities limit the amount of dividends we can pay to 90% of normalized adjusted funds from operations, as defined in the agreements, on a rolling four quarter basis starting for the fiscal quarter ending March 31, 2012 and thereafter. Prior to March 31, 2012, a similar dividend restriction exists but at a higher percentage for transitional purposes. These agreements also contain provisions for the mandatory prepayment of outstanding borrowings under these facilities from the proceeds received from the sale of properties that serve as collateral, except a portion may be reinvested subject to certain limitations, as defined in the credit facility agreement.

In addition to these restrictions, the new credit facility contains customary financial and operating covenants, including covenants relating to our total leverage ratio, fixed charge coverage ratio, mortgage secured leverage ratio, recourse mortgage secured leverage ratio, consolidated adjusted net worth, facility leverage ratio, and borrowing base interest coverage ratio. This facility also contains customary events of default, including among others, nonpayment of principal or interest, material inaccuracy of representations and failure to comply with our covenants. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the facility, the

entire outstanding balance may become immediately due and payable. At March 31, 2011, we were in compliance with all such financial and operating covenants.

5. Common Stock

During the first quarter of 2010, we sold 0.9 million shares of our common stock under our at-the-market equity offering program, at an average price of $10.77 per share, for total proceeds, net of a 2% sales commission, of $9.6 million.

6. Stock Awards

Our Second Amended and Restated Medical Properties Trust, Inc. 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) authorizes the issuance of common stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance units and awards of interests in our Operating Partnership. The Equity Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. We have reserved 7,441,180 shares of common stock for awards under the Equity Incentive Plan for which 3,220,150 shares remain available for future stock awards as of March 31, 2011. We awarded 269,085 and 221,815 shares in the first quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively, of time-based restricted stock to management, independent directors, and certain employees (2011 only). These awards vest quarterly based on service, over three years, in equal amounts. In addition, our management team and certain employees (2011 only) were awarded 229,938 and 182,600 performance based awards in the first quarter of 2011 and 2010, respectively. These awards vest ratably over a three year period based on the achievement of certain performance measures, with a carry-back and carryforward provision through December 31, 2014 (2010 awards) and December 31, 2015 (2011 awards). Dividends on these awards are paid only upon achievement of the performance measures.

7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

We have various assets and liabilities that are considered financial instruments. We estimate that the carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, and accounts payable and accrued expenses approximates their fair values. Included in our accounts payable and accrued expenses are our interest rate swaps, which are recorded at fair value. We estimate the fair value of our loans, interest, and other receivables by discounting the estimated future cash flows using the current rates at which similar receivables would be made to others with similar credit ratings and for the same remaining maturities. We determine the fair value of our exchangeable notes based on quotes from securities dealers and market makers. We estimate the fair value of our senior notes, revolving credit facilities, and term loans based on the present value of future payments, discounted at a rate which we consider appropriate for such debt.

The following table summarizes fair value information for our financial instruments: (amounts in thousands)


	March 31,						December 31,

	Book			Fair			Book			Fair

8. Discontinued Operations

In the fourth quarter 2010, we sold the real estate of our Montclair Hospital, an acute care medical center, to Prime for proceeds of $20.0 million. We realized a gain on the sale of $2.2 million.

In October 2010, we sold the real estate of our Sharpstown hospital in Houston, Texas to a third party for proceeds of $3.0 million resulting in a gain of $0.7 million.

In April 2010, we sold the real estate of our Centinela Hospital, a 369-bed acute care medical center located in Inglewood, California, to Prime for $75 million resulting in a gain of approximately $6 million.

The following table presents the results of discontinued operations, which includes the revenue and expenses of the previously-owned facilities noted above, for the three months ended March 2011 and 2010 (dollar amounts in thousands except per share amounts):

12. Subsequent Events

In April 2011, our operating partnership and a wholly-owned subsidiary of our operating partnership closed on a private offering of $450 million unsecured senior notes. These notes mature in 2021 and the interest rate is fixed at 6.875% per year. Contemporaneously with the closing of the notes, we repaid and terminated our $150 million term loan facility ($142.4 million of which was outstanding at March 31, 2011) and our $9 million collateralized term loan facility ($8.4 million outstanding of March 31, 2011). In connection with the notes offering, we amended our existing credit agreement, which now provides for a $330 million unsecured revolving credit facility that matures in October 2015. We paid down in full the revolving credit facility’s outstanding balance with the proceeds from the notes offering. We will use the remaining proceeds from the offering (approximately $210 million) for general business purposes, which may include investment opportunities and debt reduction.

In connection with this refinancing, we expect to recognize an approximate $4 million charge in the second quarter primarily related to the write-off of previously deferred loan costs and discounts associated with the term loan facilities noted above.

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

The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and consolidated results of operations should be read together with the consolidated financial statements of Medical Properties Trust, Inc. and notes thereto contained in this Form 10-Q and the financial statements and notes thereto contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the year ended December 31, 2010.

Forward-Looking Statements.

This report on Form 10-Q contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results or future performance, achievements or transactions or events to be materially different from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010, as amended, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Such factors include, among others, the following:

•		national and local economic, business, real estate and other market conditions;

•		the competitive environment in which we operate;

•		the execution of our business plan;

•		financing risks;

•		acquisition and development risks;

•		potential environmental, contingencies, and other liabilities;

•		other factors affecting the real estate industry generally or the healthcare real estate industry in particular;

•		our ability to maintain our status as a REIT for federal and state income tax purposes;

•		our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel;

•		federal and state healthcare regulatory requirements; and

•		the impact of the recent credit crisis and global economic slowdown, which has had and may continue to have a negative effect on the following, among other things:

•		the financial condition of our tenants, our lenders, counterparties to our capped call transactions and institutions that hold our cash balances, which may expose us to increased risks of default by these parties;

•		our ability to obtain debt financing on attractive terms or at all, which may adversely impact our ability to pursue acquisition and development opportunities and refinance existing debt and our future interest expense; and

•		the value of our real estate assets, which may limit our ability to dispose of assets at attractive prices or obtain or maintain debt financing secured by our properties or on an unsecured basis.

Key Factors that May Affect Our Operations

Our revenues are derived from rents we earn pursuant to the lease agreements with our tenants and from interest income from loans to our tenants and other facility owners. Our tenants operate in the healthcare industry, generally providing medical, surgical and rehabilitative care to patients. The capacity of our tenants to pay our rents and interest is dependent upon their ability to conduct their operations at profitable levels. We believe that the business environment of the industry segments in which our tenants operate is generally positive for efficient operators. However, our tenants’ operations are subject to economic, regulatory and market conditions that may affect their profitability. Accordingly, we monitor certain key factors, changes to which we believe may provide early indications of conditions that may affect the level of risk in our lease and loan portfolio.

Key factors that we consider in underwriting prospective tenants and borrowers and in monitoring the performance of existing tenants and borrowers include the following:

•		the historical and prospective operating margins (measured by a tenant’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and facility rent) of each tenant or borrower and at each facility;

•		the ratio of our tenants’ and borrowers’ operating earnings both to facility rent and to facility rent plus other fixed costs, including debt costs;

•		trends in the source of our tenants’ or borrowers’ revenue, including the relative mix of Medicare, Medicaid/MediCal, managed care, commercial insurance, and private pay patients; and

•		the effect of evolving healthcare regulations on our tenants’ and borrowers’ profitability.

Certain business factors, in addition to those described above that directly affect our tenants and borrowers, will likely materially influence our future results of operations. These factors include:

•		trends in the cost and availability of capital, including market interest rates, that our prospective tenants may use for their real estate assets instead of financing their real estate assets through lease structures;

•		changes in healthcare regulations that may limit the opportunities for physicians to participate in the ownership of healthcare providers and healthcare real estate;

•		reductions in reimbursements from Medicare, state healthcare programs, and commercial insurance providers that may reduce our tenants’ profitability and our lease rates;

•		competition from other financing sources; and

•		the ability of our tenants and borrowers to access funds in the credit markets.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Refer to our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for a discussion of our critical accounting policies, which include revenue recognition, investment in real estate, purchase price allocation, loans, losses from rent receivables, stock-based compensation, and our accounting policy on consolidation. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, there were no material changes to these policies.

Overview

We were incorporated under Maryland law on August 27, 2003 primarily for the purpose of investing in and owning net-leased healthcare facilities across the United States. We have operated as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) since April 6, 2004, and accordingly, elected REIT status upon the filing in September 2005 of our calendar year 2004 federal income tax return. We acquire and develop healthcare facilities and lease the facilities to healthcare operating companies under long-term net leases. We also make mortgage loans to healthcare operators collateralized by their real estate assets. In addition, we selectively make loans to certain of our operators through our taxable REIT subsidiaries, the proceeds of which are used for acquisitions and working capital. Finally, from time to time, we acquire a profits interest in our tenants that gives us a limited right to share in the tenant’s positive cash flow.

At March 31, 2011, our portfolio consisted of 58 properties: 54 facilities (of the 56 facilities that we own) are leased to 19 tenants, one is presently not under lease as it is under re-development, one is under development, and the remaining assets are in the form of first mortgage loans to a single operator. Our owned facilities consisted of 22 general acute care hospitals, 17 long-term acute care hospitals, nine inpatient

rehabilitation hospitals, two medical office buildings, and six wellness centers. The non-owned facilities on which we have made mortgage loans consisted of general acute care facilities.

All of our investments are located in the United States, and we do not expect to invest in markets outside the United States in the near future. The following is our revenue by operating type (dollars in thousands):

Revenue by property type:


	For the Three					For the Three
	Months Ended					Months Ended
	March 31,		% of			March 31,		% of
	2011		Total			2010		Total
General Acute Care Hospitals	$	21,103		59.1	%	$	20,802		67.4	%

Total revenue	$	35,699		100.0	%	$	30,858		100.0	%

We have 29 employees as of May 1, 2011. We believe that any increase in the number of our employees will have only immaterial effects on our operations and general and administrative expenses. We believe that our relations with our employees are good. None of our employees are members of any union.

Results of Operations

Three months Ended March 31, 2011 Compared to Three Months Ended March 31, 2010

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 was $10.8 million, compared to a loss of $2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2010.

A comparison of revenues for the three month periods ended March 31, 2011 and 2010, is as follows, with 2010 adjusted for discontinued operations ($ amounts in thousands):


											Year over
			% of					% of			Year
	2011		Total			2010		Total			Change
Base rents	$	27,856		78.0	%	$	20,719		67.1	%		34.4	%
Straight-line rents		1,735		4.9	%		1,811		5.9	%		(4.2	)%
Percentage rents		817		2.3	%		529		1.7	%		54.4	%
Fee income		74		0.2	%		105		0.4	%		(29.5	)%
Interest from loans		5,217		14.6	%		7,694		24.9	%		(32.2	)%

Total revenue	$	35,699		100.0	%	$	30,858		100.0	%		15.7	%

Base rents for the 2011 first quarter increased 34.4% versus the prior year as a result of additional rent generated from annual escalation provisions in our leases and incremental revenue from the properties acquired in 2010 and in the first quarter of 2011. Interest from loans is lower than the prior year due to the repayment of $82 million in loans in 2010.

Real estate depreciation and amortization during the first quarter of 2011 increased to $7.9 million from $6.1 million in 2010, due to the incremental depreciation from the properties acquired since March 2010.

In the 2010 first quarter, we recognized a $12 million loan impairment charge related to our Monroe facility — See Note 3 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. No such charge was recorded in 2011.

Property-related expenses in the first quarter of 2011 decreased from $0.5 million in 2010 to $0.1 million in 2011 due to the utility costs, repair and maintenance expense, legal, and property taxes associated with vacant facilities in 2010. No similar costs were incurred in 2011 as all of our facilities are currently fully operating with the exception of two facilities that are under development.

General and administrative expenses in the first quarter of 2011 decreased slightly as a percentage of revenues compared to the same period in 2010.

Acquisition expenses increased from $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2010 to $2.0 million in 2011 due to increased acquisition activity and consummated deals. We restarted our acquisition program in the 2010 second quarter after strategically putting it on hold during the worst parts of the financial crisis.

Interest expense for the quarters ended March 31, 2011 and 2010 totaled $8.1 million and $9.5 million, respectively. This

decrease is primarily related to lower debt balances in 2011 as a result of the debt refinancing and issuance of common stock during the second quarter of 2010.

In addition to the items noted above, net income (loss) for the first quarter in both years was impacted by discontinued operations. See Note 8 to our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements - Discontinued Operations for further information.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

During the 2011 first quarter, operating cash flows, which primarily consists of rent and interest from mortgage and working capital loans, approximated $19.3 million, which, along with cash on-hand and draws on our revolvers, were principally used to fund our dividend of $22.4 million and investing activities of $183.0 million.

In April 2011, our operating partnership and a wholly owned subsidiary of our operating partnership closed on a private offering of $450 million unsecured senior notes. These notes mature in 2021 and the interest rate is fixed at 6.875% per year. Contemporaneously with the closing of the notes, we repaid and terminated our $150 million term loan facility ($142.4 million of which was outstanding at March 31, 2011) and our $9 million collateralized term loan facility ($8.4 million outstanding of March 31, 2011). In connection with the notes offering, we amended our existing credit agreement, which now provides for a $330 million unsecured revolving credit facility that matures in October 2015. We paid down in full the revolving credit facility’s outstanding balance with the proceeds from the notes offering. We will use the remaining proceeds from the offering (approximately $210 million) for general business purposes, which may include investment opportunities and debt reduction.

During the 2010 first quarter, operating cash flows, which primarily consists of rent and interest from mortgage and working capital loans, approximated $11.1 million, which, along with cash on-hand and proceeds from the sale of stock under our at-the-market equity offering program, were principally used to fund our dividend of $16.1 million and investing activities. During the first quarter of 2010, we sold 0.9 million shares of our common stock under our at-the-market equity offering program, at an average price of $10.77 per share, for total proceeds, net of a 2% sales commission, of $9.6 million.

Short-term Liquidity Requirements: At May 10, 2011, our availability under our amended revolving credit facility plus cash on-hand approximated $450 million. We have only nominal principal payments due and no significant maturities in 2011. We believe that the liquidity available to us, along with our current monthly cash receipts from rent and loan interest, is sufficient to provide the resources necessary for operations, debt and interest obligations, our firm commitments, distributions in compliance with REIT requirements during 2011 and to fund our current investment strategies for the next twelve months. In addition, we have an at-the-market offering in place under which we may sell up to $50 million in shares (of which $10 million has been sold to-date) which may be used for general corporate purposes as needed.

Long-term Liquidity Requirements: With the proceeds from the notes offering and the amended credit facility discussed above along with our current monthly cash receipts from rent and loan interest and availability under our at-the-market offering, we believe we have the liquidity available to us to fund our operations, debt and interest obligations, distributions in compliance with REIT requirements and investment strategies for the foreseeable future. As of March 31, 2011, principal payments due for our debt (which exclude the effects of any discounts recorded) are as follows (in thousands):


2011	$	19,627
2012		41,332
2013		141,749

Distribution Policy

We have elected to be taxed as a REIT commencing with our taxable year that began on April 6, 2004 and ended on December 31, 2004. To qualify as a REIT, we must meet a number of organizational and operational requirements, including a requirement that we distribute at least 90% of our REIT taxable income, excluding net capital gain, to our stockholders. It is our current intention to comply with these requirements and maintain such status going forward.

The table below is a summary of our distributions declared during the two year period ended March 31, 2011:

We intend to pay to our stockholders, within the time periods prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”), all or substantially all of our annual taxable income, including taxable gains from the sale of real estate and recognized gains on the sale of securities. It is our policy to make sufficient cash distributions to stockholders in order for us to maintain our status as a REIT under the Code and to avoid corporate income and excise taxes on undistributed income. See Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Item 1 to this Form 10-Q for any restrictions placed on dividends by our existing credit facility.


Item 3.		Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Our primary exposure to market risks relates to changes in interest rates, and equity prices. In addition, the value of our facilities will be subject to fluctuations based on changes in local and regional economic conditions and changes in the ability of our tenants to generate profits, all of which may affect our ability to refinance our debt if necessary. The changes in the value of our facilities would be affected also by changes in “cap” rates, which is measured by the current annual base rent divided by the current market value of a facility.

Refer to our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for a discussion of our quantitative and qualitative disclosures and analyses about market risk, which include interest rate and share price sensitivity. During the three months ended March 31, 2011, there were no material changes to these analyses.


Item 4.		Controls and Procedures.

We have adopted and maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

As required by Rule 13a-15(b), under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, we have carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the quarter covered by this report. Based on the foregoing, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file with the SEC.

There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
