MCLEAN, Va., July 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunrise Senior Living, Inc. (NYSE: SRZ) announced today that on June 29, 2012, it closed on an agreement with CHT Partners, LP, a subsidiary of CNL Healthcare Trust, Inc.

See below for key transaction terms and statistics relating to the new joint venture portfolio.
Transaction Benefits
•Two core stabilized Sunrise mansions with additional upside from five communities transitioning from lease up to stabilized: Average unit occupancy for the seven communities was 84.3% for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Average unit occupancy was up 1170 basis points for the first-quarter 2012 over the first-quarter 2011 and net operating income for the first quarter of 2012 increased 41 percent over the first quarter of 2011.
•Exceptional financing execution: the Company secured excellent financing with favorable debt and equity terms. The new debt refinanced two pools of existing debt on five of the communities. The first pool was under a forbearance agreement that was scheduled to mature in January 2013, and the second pool was scheduled to mature in October 2012. The Company was obligated to the prior lender on an operating deficit guarantee with respect to the second pool, but as a result of the refinancing, Sunrise has been released from such obligation.
•Long-term management contract: the Company secured a long-term management agreement with a 6 percent management fee and the unlimited ability to cure any performance shortfalls in the NOI threshold test that starts in 2014.
•Future asset control: the joint venture agreement provides certain purchase options and buyout rights, which if exercised in the future, will allow the Company to control the assets outright.
