AdCare heralds $18.7 million private placements of promissory notes

Offering raises funds for company to acquire skilled nursing facility

By Devika Patel

Knoxville, Tenn., Oct. 6 - AdCare Health Systems, Inc. sold secured promissory notes in a private placement on Sept. 30, according to an 8-K filed Wednesday with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The $15.2 million of variable-rate notes will mature on Sept. 30, 2035. They accrue interest at a variable rate of Prime plus 150 basis points, with a floor of 5.5%. The notes have a prepayment penalty of 10% for any prepayment prior to Sept. 30, 2011 which is reduced by 1% each year until Sept. 30, 2019, when it stays fixed at 1%.

The company also arranged a placement of $3.5 million in 10% promissory notes along with 350,000 warrants. It has raised $3.15 million thus far.

The warrants are exercisable at $4.25 until Oct. 1, 2013. The strike price represents a 23.19% premium to the Sept. 29 closing share price of $3.45.

The 10% notes mature on Jan. 1, 2011, which may be extended to April 1, 2011. If extended, the interest rate will increase to 18% per year retroactive to Sept. 30, 2010.

Cantone Research, Inc. was the agent for the $3.5 million placement.

Proceeds were used to acquire the operations and selected assets of Coosa Valley Health Care, a 124 bed skilled nursing facility located in Gadsden, Ala., for $8.7 million.

Springfield, Ohio-based AdCare is a developer, owner and manager of retirement communities.
