Item 8.01	Other Events.

Healthcare Trust of America, Inc. (NYSE: HTA) (“HTA”) announced today that its Board of Directors issued a quarterly dividend of $0.315 per share of common stock. This represents an annualized rate of $1.26 per share of common stock with an annualized yield of 4.17% based on HTA’s closing share price as of October 25, 2019. The dividend will be paid on January 9, 2020 to stockholders of record on January 2, 2020.

The amount of dividends HTA pays to its stockholders is determined by HTA’s Board of Directors, at its discretion, and is dependent on a number of factors, including funds available for the payment of distributions, HTA’s financial condition, capital expenditure requirements and annual distribution requirements needed to maintain HTA’s status as a real estate investment trust under the Internal Revenue Code. HTA’s Board of Directors may reduce its dividend rate and HTA cannot guarantee the amount of dividends paid in the future, if any.
