Utilizing our significant experience in investing and managing healthcare real estate, Healthcare Trust of America, Inc. seeks to acquire quality properties that generate sustainable long-term growth in operating cash flow to pay regular cash distributions, currently at 7.25% per annum.* As such, we are focused on fostering strategic relationships with key healthcare providers.

The types of properties we look to acquire include:

• Medical office buildings
• Surgery Centers
• Specialty/diagnostic buildings
• Long-Term Acute Care Hospitals (LTAC’s)
• Acute Care Hospitals
• Hospital-Occupied, Non-Clinical Assets

Our objectives are:

• To acquire quality properties that generate sustainable growth in cash flow from operations to pay regular cash distributions;*
• To preserve, protect and return your capital contributions;
• To realize growth in the value of our investments upon our ultimate sale of such investments; and
• To be prudent, patient and deliberate, taking into account the current real estate market

There can be no assurance, however, that these objectives will be achieved.

* In the past, HTA has paid a portion of its distributions using offering proceeds or borrowed funds and may continue to use borrowed funds in the future to pay distributions. For example, for the three months ended, September 30, 2011, we paid distributions of $41,467,000 ($21,990,000 in cash and $19,477,000 in shares of our common stock pursuant to the DRIP), as compared to cash flow from operations of $25,474,000. In addition, distributions in excess of taxable income have resulted in a return of capital, which lowers a stockholder’s tax basis in our shares.
