Grubb & Ellis^® HEALTHCARE REIT Healthcare is an essential industry with strong long-term fundamentals As a nation, America is growing—and growing older, with the population expanding and the baby boomers entering their 60s. New medical techniques are fueling fresh demand for healthcare, which is expected to account for 20 percent of the U.S. economy by 2015.1 The American Hospital Association expects baby boomers to “reshape the healthcare system forever.” Boomers, in particular, are expected to use more healthcare resources per person than past generations because they are living longer and managing more complex conditions.2 Echo boomers, (the children of the baby boomers), will also drive demand for medical care in the future. According to a University of New Hampshire study, many echo boomers are now “on the path toward chronic health diseases.“3 The number of physician visits has been increasing for all populations—by 34 percent over the last decade. By 2030, there will be nearly twice as many adult physician visits as there were in 2004, and boomers will account for more than four of every 10 of these visits.4 1 “When I’m 64: How the Boomers Will Change Health Care,” 2007. 2FCG projections based on J.

Hanson President and Chief Investment Officer Grubb & Ellis Realty Investors, LLC Perhaps the most compelling story during 2007 was the disruption in the debt markets. Led by the commercial mortgage-backed security (CMBS) secondary markets, debt spreads moved widely and quickly beginning in the third quarter of the year. Unlike many of our competitors, however, Grubb & Ellis Healthcare REIT is weathering the debt storm nicely. We believe that’s because the REIT is in the fortunate position of being a relatively low-leverage borrower and thus has been spared much of the ill-effects associated with the debt market shake-up. The REIT has compensated by utilizing debt that has been less affected by the credit crunch, including bank debt, our secured revolving line of credit and long-term secured financing from non-CMBS sources such as life insurance companies.
