Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 2, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), Universal Health Realty Income Trust (the “Trust”) entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with a syndicate of lenders and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, Bank of America, N.A., as Syndication Agent and Fifth Third Bank, N.A., JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Truist Bank as Co-Documentation Agents, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and BOFA Securities, Inc., as Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners (the “Credit Agreement”) to amend and restate the existing credit agreement, dated as of March 27, 2018, as amended by the first amendment, dated as of June 5, 2020 (the “Existing Credit Agreement”).

The Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $375 million, including a $40 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit and a $30 million sublimit for swingline loans. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Trust may request that the revolving line of credit be increased by up to an additional $50 million. Borrowings under the new facility are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Trust. In addition, borrowings under the new facility are secured by first priority security interests in and liens on all equity interests in most of the Trust’s wholly-owned subsidiaries.

The new Credit Agreement is available on a revolving basis until July 2, 2025. All outstanding loans under the Credit Agreement will be due on July 2, 2025 (the “Maturity Date”), however, the Trust also has an option to extend the revolving credit period and the Maturity Date twice, each for an additional six month period. The new facility replaces the Trust’s previous credit facility under the Existing Credit Agreement, which consisted of a $350 million revolving credit facility expiring on March 27, 2022. The amount outstanding under the previous revolving credit facility on the Closing Date of $258.2 million, as well as the outstanding letters of credit totaling $5.1 million, were refinanced under the new revolving credit facility.  Including amounts borrowed under the new Credit Agreement on July 2, 2021, there was $110.1 million available under the Credit Agreement as of the Closing Date.

Proceeds of the Credit Agreement will be used to refinance the outstanding borrowings and letters of credit under the Existing Credit Agreement, to pay costs, fees and expenses associated with the new facility, and for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including permitted investments and acquisitions.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement will bear interest annually at a rate equal to, at the Trust’s option, either LIBOR (for one, three, or six months) or the Base Rate (as defined below), plus, in either case, a specified margin depending on the Trust’s ratio of debt to total capital, as determined by the formula set forth in the Credit Agreement. The applicable margin ranges from 1.10% to 1.35% for LIBOR loans and 0.10% to 0.35% for Base Rate loans. The initial applicable margin is 1.25% for LIBOR loans and 0.25% for Base Rate loans. The Credit Agreement defines “Base Rate” as the greatest of (a) the Administrative Agent’s prime rate, (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1% and (c) one month LIBOR plus 1%. The Trust will also pay a quarterly commitment fee ranging from 0.15% to 0.35% (depending on the Trust’s ratio of debt to asset value) of the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit commitments.

The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on certain indebtedness, liens, acquisitions and other investments, fundamental changes, asset dispositions and dividends and other distributions. The Credit Agreement also contains restrictive covenants regarding the Trust’s ratio of total debt to total assets, the fixed charge coverage ratio, the ratio of total secured debt to total asset value, the ratio of total unsecured debt to total unencumbered asset value, and minimum net worth, as well as customary events of default, the occurrence of which may trigger an acceleration of amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement is a summary and does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Report.
