Other Events
On May 6, 2024, Steward Health Care System LLC (“Steward”) filed a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas. Affiliates of Steward lease 36 healthcare facilities from Medical Properties Trust, Inc. and its affiliates (together, the “Company”) pursuant to two master lease agreements with fixed terms ending October 2041. In addition to the master leases, the Company holds a working capital and other loans to Steward, in addition to a $362 million loan to affiliates of Steward. The Company
also
holds
a
9.9% equity investment in Steward.
Steward’s bankruptcy filing constitutes a default under the terms of the Company’s master leases and loan agreements with Steward, and imposes a stay of the Company’s ability to exercise contractual rights with respect to these defaults. The Company intends
to
engage in negotiations with Steward and other stakeholders and to continue to pursue all legal remedies to maximize the Company’s recovery with respect to its Steward investments and to facilitate an orderly transition across Steward’s footprint. The outcome of any such negotiations and remedies is uncertain at this time and will be subject in all cases to the approval of the bankruptcy court.
Subject to approval by the bankruptcy court (including with regards to financing terms), the Company anticipates entering into agreements to provide
debtor-in-possession
financing to Steward up to $
75
 million.
