The purchase price for the 44.5% interest in the facility was 192,767 shares of common stock in Global Healthcare REIT, Inc. The facility is subject to an aggregate of $6,550,000.00 in debt.

Acquisition of Providence of Sparta Nursing Home

Effective September 16, 2014, the Company acquired a 65% membership interest in Providence HR, LLC, which owns the real property and improvements known as the Providence of Sparta Nursing Home. The facility has 71 licensed beds and is located on approximately 8 acres in Sparta, Georgia.

Acquisition of Greene Point Health Care Center

Effective September 16, 2014, the Company acquired a 62.145% membership interest in Wash/Greene, LLC, which owns the real property and improvements known as the Greene Point Healthcare Center, located at 1321 Washington Highway in Union Point, Georgia. The facility has 71 licensed beds and is located on approximately 9 acres.

Greene Point Healthcare Center is operated under a triple-net operating lease to a regional professional skilled nursing home operator.

The purchase price for the 62.145% interest in the facility was 73,253 shares of common stock of Global Healthcare REIT, Inc. The facility is subject to an aggregate of $3,905,000.00 in debt.

Determination of Purchase Price

The purchase price of each of the foregoing interests was determined by the Board of Directors based upon the projected annual cash flow of each facility multiplied by a factor of 3.3X. The formula also gave consideration to Mr. Brogdon's personal guaranty of each of the senior secured loans against each facility, which guaranties will continue. The shares of Global common stock were valued by the Board at $1.00 per share for purposes of the acquisitions. Since Mr. Brogdon had a personal interest in each transaction, he abstained from the Board's ratification of the acquisitions and the determination of their terms.

Mr. Brogdon stated, “It was always our intention to make these facilities available to Global, and we're pleased that we were able to complete the acquisitions on terms that the Board believes are fair to the Company and our stockholders. We will continue to be opportunistic in our aggressive expansion efforts.”
