Ventas Realty, Limited Partnership Announces Proposed Private Placement of $500 Million of Exchangeable Senior Notes

Ventas Realty, Limited Partnership (“Ventas Realty”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Ventas, Inc. (“Ventas”) (NYSE: VTR), announced today that it intends to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors, $500 million aggregate principal amount of its Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2026 (the “notes”) in a private placement (the “offering”) to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Ventas Realty also intends to grant the initial purchasers of the notes an option to purchase, during a 13-day period beginning on, and including, the first date on which the notes are issued, up to an additional $75 million aggregate principal amount of notes.

The notes will be senior, unsecured obligations of Ventas Realty and will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis by Ventas. The notes will accrue interest payable semi-annually in arrears. The notes will mature on June 1, 2026, unless earlier exchanged, redeemed or repurchased.

The notes will be exchangeable for cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the notes to be exchanged and cash, shares of Ventas’ common stock (the “common stock”) or a combination of cash and shares of common stock, at Ventas Realty’s election, in respect of the remainder, if any, of its exchange obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the notes being exchanged. Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding March 1, 2026, noteholders may exchange their notes at their option only upon the satisfaction of specified conditions and during certain periods. On or after March 1, 2026, until the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date, noteholders may exchange all or any portion of their notes at any time, regardless of these conditions or periods.

Ventas Realty may redeem for cash all or any portion of the notes, if Ventas’ board of directors (or a committee thereof) determines such redemption is necessary to preserve Ventas’ status as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Ventas Realty may not otherwise redeem the notes prior to the maturity date. The redemption price for any note called for redemption will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of such note, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. No sinking fund is provided for the notes.

Subject to certain conditions, holders of the notes will have the right to require Ventas Realty to repurchase all or a portion of their notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined in the indenture that will govern the notes) at a repurchase price of 100% of their principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the repurchase date. Following certain corporate events or if Ventas Realty calls any notes for redemption, Ventas Realty will, under certain circumstances, increase the exchange rate for noteholders who elect to exchange their notes in connection with any such corporate event or exchange their notes called for redemption.

Ventas Realty intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including the redemption or repayment of indebtedness.

The notes are being offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act. The notes, the guarantee, and the shares of common stock deliverable upon exchange of the notes, if any, have not been, nor will be, registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.

This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.
