Subsequent Events	Subsequent Events Acquisition of Quality Care Properties On July 26, 2018, we completed the acquisition of Quality Care Properties Inc. ("QCP"), with QCP shareholders receiving $20.75 of cash for each share of QCP common stock and all existing QCP debt was repaid. Prior to the acquisition, ProMedica Health System ("ProMedica") completed the acquisition of the operations of HCR ManorCare. Immediately following the acquisition of QCP, we formed an 80/20 joint venture with ProMedica to own the real estate associated with the 218 properties leased to ProMedica under a lease agreement with the following key terms: (i) 15-year absolute triple-net master lease with three five-year renewal options; (ii) initial annual cash rent of $179 million with a year one escalator of 1.375% and 2.75% annual escalators thereafter; and (iii) full corporate guarantee of ProMedica. We drew on a $1.0 billion term loan facility to fund a portion of the acquisition cash consideration and other related expenses. The term loan facility matures two years from the closing. In addition to the term loan facility draw, we drew on our unsecured credit facility described below, in order to fund the acquisition. The aggregate consideration to acquire the QCP shares and repay outstanding QCP debt was approximately $3.8 billion, exclusive of transaction costs, ProMedica's joint venture contribution and cash acquired. Initial accounting for the transaction is incomplete as of August 2, 2018 due to the complexity of the transaction. Pro forma financial information has not been provided herein due to a lack of sufficient information at the time of filing. We intend to file the pro forma financial information as an amendment to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed July 27, 2018. Unsecured Credit Facility In July 2018, we closed on a new $3.7 billion unsecured credit facility with improved pricing across both our line of credit and term loan facility and terminated the existing unsecured credit facility (see Note 9 for further information on the former facilities). The new credit facility includes $3.0 billion of revolving credit capacity at a borrowing rate of 82.5 basis points over LIBOR, $500 million of USD term loan capacity at a borrowing rate of 90.0 basis points over LIBOR and $250 million of CAD term loan capacity at 90.0 basis points over CIDOR.
