We have four operators from each of which we derive over 10% of our rental revenue and interest income from mortgage loans.

 

In 2006, Extendicare Services, Inc. (or EHSI), one of our major operators, effected a reorganization whereby it completed a spin-off of Assisted Living Concepts, Inc. (or ALC).  The remaining EHSI assets and operations were converted into a Canadian REIT (Extendicare REIT) listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange (or TSX).  During 2012, Extendicare REIT converted from an income trust structure to a corporate structure under a corporation named Extendicare, Inc. (or Extendicare). Both Extendicare and ALC continue to be parties to the leases with us.

 

On July 11, 2013, ALC merged with Aid Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (or Aid Holdings), and Aid Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of Aid Holdings (or Aid Merger Sub). Aid Holdings and Aid Merger Sub are affiliates of TPG Capital, L.P.

 

Extendicare and ALC collectively lease 37 assisted living properties with a total of 1,430 units owned by us representing approximately 6.2%, or $51,825,000, of our total assets at September 30, 2013 and 10.6% of rental revenue and interest income from mortgage loans recognized as of September 30, 2013.

 

Brookdale Senior Living Communities, Inc. (or Brookdale Communities) is a wholly owned subsidiary of a publicly traded company, Brookdale Senior Living, Inc. (or Brookdale). Brookdale Communities leases 35 assisted living properties with a total of 1,414 units owned by us representing approximately 6.2%, or $52,067,000, of our total assets at September 30, 2013 and 10.6% of rental revenue and interest income from mortgage loans recognized as of September 30, 2013.

 

Preferred Care, Inc. (or Preferred Care), through various wholly owned subsidiaries, operates 27 skilled nursing properties and two range of care properties that we own or on which we hold mortgages secured by first trust deeds.  These properties consist of a total of 3,354 skilled nursing beds and 49 assisted living units. This represents approximately 6.0%, or $50,735,000, of our total assets at September 30, 2013 and 10.4% of rental revenue and interest income from mortgage loans recognized as of September 30, 2013. They also operate one skilled nursing property under a sub-lease with another lessee we have which is not included in the Preferred Care rental revenue and interest income from mortgage loans.

 

Senior Care Centers, LLC (or Senior Care) is a privately held company. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, we entered into an amended and restated master lease agreement with Senior Care to include four skilled nursing properties which were previously operated by and subleased to Senior Care. Under the new amended and restated master lease agreement, Senior Care leases nine skilled nursing properties with a total of 1,190 beds owned by us representing approximately 12.6%, or $105,881,000, of our total assets at September 30, 2013 and 11.2% of rental revenue and interest income from mortgage loans recognized as of September 30, 2013.

 

Our financial position and ability to make distributions may be adversely affected by financial difficulties experienced by Extendicare, ALC, Brookdale Communities, Preferred Care, Senior Care, or any of our lessees and borrowers, including any bankruptcies, inability to emerge from bankruptcy, insolvency or general downturn in business of any such operator, or in the event any such operator does not renew and/or extend its relationship with us or our borrowers when it expires.
