"Our team executed on a number of critical matters over the last
90 days. I am very pleased that we accomplished the sale of
the SymCare portfolio, which represents a huge step in our
efforts to become a predominantly private pay seniors housing
portfolio," commented Scott White,
Chairman & Chief Executive Officer. "Our primary focus is on
extensions of our largest credit facility and the partial
redemption of the Debentures. We also remain vigilant about the
assets comprising our portfolio and ensuring that we have the right
operator in each of those assets. I am proud of our efforts year to
date and believe that our Company is prepared to take advantage of
the significant demand for seniors housing projected the coming
years."

statements"), that reflect and are provided for the purpose of

statements regarding the Company's ability to refinance or extend
the maturity on its existing credit facility and limitation of the
Company's ability to successfully amend payments required to be

solely to historical matters and suggest future outcomes or events.
Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking
statements and are cautioned that forward-looking statements may
not be appropriate for other purposes. Forward-looking statements
in this Press Release are based on current beliefs, expectations,
and certain assumptions of the Company's management and are subject
to significant known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other
factors that are beyond the Company's ability to predict or
control, including the risk that the Company will not be able to
refinance or extend the maturity on its existing debt facility or
be able to extend the repayment required in connection with the
partial redemption, and may cause actual results or events to
differ materially from those expressed or implied by such
statements and, accordingly, should not be read as guarantees of
future performance or results and will not necessarily be accurate
indications of whether or not such results will be achieved. The
Company's actual results may differ as a result of various factors,
including without limitation, the risks described in the Company's
current annual information form and management's discussion and
analysis, available on SEDAR at www.sedar.com, which risks may be
dependent on market factors and not entirely within the Company's
control. Although management believes that it has a reasonable
basis for the expectations reflected in these forward-looking
statements, actual results may differ from those suggested by the
forward-looking statements for various reasons. These
forward-looking statements reflect current expectations of the

this Press Release are certain non-IFRS financial measures as
supplemental indicators used by the Company's management to track
the Company's performance. These non-IFRS measures are NOI, FFO,
and AFFO. The Company believes that these non-IFRS financial
measures provide useful information to both the Company's
management and investors in measuring the financial performance and
financial condition of the Company. These measures do not have a
standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and, therefore, may not be
comparable to similar measures presented by other companies, nor
should they be construed as an alternative to other financial
measures determined in accordance with IFRS. For a full definition
