Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 17, 2014, Aviv REIT, Inc. (“Aviv”), through Aviv Financing VI, L.L.C. (the “Parent Borrower”) and Financing VI Healthcare Property, L.L.C. (the “Property Borrower” and, collectively with the Parent Borrower, the “Borrowers”), each a Delaware limited liability company and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Aviv’s operating partnership, Aviv Healthcare Properties Limited Partnership (the “Partnership” and, together with Aviv, the “Company”), entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Parent Borrower and the Property Borrower, as borrowers, the financial institutions party thereto, as lenders, and General Electric Capital Corporation (“GECC”), as administrative agent and a lender.

The Credit Agreement provides for a secured term loan in an initial principal amount of $180.0 million. Borrowings under the term loan will bear interest at the rate of: (a) the greater of (i) 0.50% per annum or (ii) LIBOR or a comparable rate with respect to Eurodollar loans plus (b) an applicable percentage of 3.50%. The term loan requires interest payments only for the first 24 months and payments thereafter amortize on a 30-year amortization schedule. Subject to certain exceptions, no prepayment of the term loan is permitted until January 1, 2016, and thereafter prepayment is permitted with a prepayment premium of 1% of the outstanding amount of the term loan through January 1, 2017. After January 1, 2017, the term loan may be prepaid without prepayment premium. The maturity date for the term loan under the Credit Agreement is December 17, 2019. The term loan proceeds were used to fund a portion of the purchase price for the acquisition of the Assets (as defined in Item 2.01 below) from Diamond Senior Living, LLC (“Diamond”), a subsidiary of General Electric Credit Corporation of Tennessee (itself a subsidiary of GECC). Each of the fee-owned properties (other than the office building) and one leasehold interest are generally encumbered by a security instrument and provide collateral for the term loan.

The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants that include restrictions on the Borrowers’ ability to make acquisitions and other investments, pay dividends, incur additional indebtedness, and sell or otherwise transfer certain assets as well as customary events of default. The Credit Agreement incorporates certain financial covenants set forth in the Company’s existing credit facility, dated May 14, 2014, among the Partnership, Aviv Healthcare Capital Corporation, Bank of America, N.A. and certain guarantors and other lenders. In the event of a default under the Credit Agreement, the lenders have customary remedies that include the right to terminate their obligations under the Credit Agreement and to accelerate the payment on any unpaid principal amount of all outstanding loans and all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and to exercise all rights and remedies available to lenders under the Credit Agreement and related documents or applicable law, including realizing on the real property collateral.

The foregoing summary of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.01. Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On December 17, 2014, the Company completed the previously announced acquisition, through the Property Borrower and, as to the office building, Westerville Ohio Office Property, L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Partnership, of a portfolio of 28 healthcare properties and one office building (collectively, the “Assets”) in exchange for $305 million in cash, upon the terms and subject to the conditions contained in that certain asset purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated November 4, 2014, between the Property Borrower and Diamond. The purchase price was funded from a combination of a draw on the Company’s existing unsecured credit facility and $180 million in borrowings under the Credit Agreement. GECC, the administrative agent of the Credit Agreement and a lender thereunder, is the indirect parent company of Diamond. In determining the consideration to be paid for the Assets, the Company considered a variety of factors, including location, quality of the real estate, credit quality of the tenant, duration of the in-place lease, rental market occupancy rates and historical and current competition in the rental market and comparative rents.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement. A copy of the Purchase Agreement was filed as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 5, 2014 and is incorporated herein by reference.
