Item 8.01. Other Events.

Offering of Common Stock

On August 15, 2013, Medical Properties Trust, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), and MPT Operating Partnership, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership and the Company’s operating partnership (the “Operating Partnership”), entered into an underwriting agreement with Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters (the “Equity Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Equity Underwriters an aggregate of 10,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company, at a public offering price of $12.75 per share. The Company also granted the Equity Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional shares, which was exercised in full on August 16, 2013. The offering of common stock closed on August 20, 2013, resulting in net proceeds to the Company (including the exercise in full of the option to purchase additional shares) of approximately $140.4 million, after deducting discounts and commissions and estimated offering expenses.

The offering and sale of the shares of common stock was made pursuant to a preliminary prospectus supplement and final prospectus supplement related to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-186812), each of which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Equity Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Company and the Operating Partnership. It also provides for customary indemnification by the Company for losses or damages arising out of or in connection with the sale of the common stock.

The foregoing is a summary description of certain terms of the Equity Underwriting Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by the text of the Equity Underwriting Agreement attached as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

Offering of 6.375% Senior Notes due 2022

On August 15, 2013, the Operating Partnership, MPT Finance Corporation, a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Operating Partnership (“MPT Finance,” and together with the Operating Partnership, the “Issuers”), and the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Notes Underwriting Agreement”) with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as a representative of the several underwriters listed thereto (the “Notes Underwriters”), pursuant to which the Issuers agreed to issue and sell to the Notes Underwriters $150,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Notes at an issue price to the public of 102.000% plus accrued interest from August 15, 2013. The offering of Notes closed on August 20, 2013.

The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on an unsecured basis, by the Guarantors. The Notes will form a part of the same series as the Issuers’ 6.375% senior notes due 2022 issued on February 17, 2012 in the aggregate principal amount of $200.0 million. The Notes will be treated as a single series with the previously issued notes for all purposes under the Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase.

The offering and sale of Notes was made pursuant to a free writing prospectus, preliminary prospectus supplement and final prospectus supplement related to the Issuers’ and Guarantors’ effective registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-190543), each of which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Notes Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by the Issuers and the Guarantors. It also provides for customary indemnification by each of the Issuers and the Guarantors for losses or damages arising out of or in connection with the sale of the Notes.

The foregoing is a summary description of certain terms of the Notes Underwriting Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by the text of the Notes Underwriting Agreement attached as Exhibit 1.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
