Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements

The information appearing on Diversified Healthcare Trust’s (“DHC”) website contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and other securities laws. Also, whenever DHC uses words such as “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “plan”, “estimate”, “will”, “may” and negatives or derivatives of these or similar expressions, it is making forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon DHC’s present intent, beliefs or expectations, but forward-looking statements are not guaranteed to occur and may not occur. Actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by DHC’s forward-looking statements as a result of various factors. For example: (a) Office Properties Income Trust (“OPI”) and DHC have entered into a definitive merger agreement and the proposed merger is expected to close in the third quarter of 2023. However, the closing of the proposed merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of closing conditions, including DHC shareholder approval and the financing or any consents or approvals required or contemplated in connection with the proposed merger, some of which are beyond DHC’s control, and DHC cannot be sure that any or all of these conditions will be satisfied or waived. Accordingly, the proposed merger may not close on the contemplated terms or at all or it may be delayed; (b) DHC shareholders are expected to benefit from an annual dividend of $1.00 per share of the combined company. However, the Board of Trustees of the combined company will consider many factors when setting distribution rates, and thus future distribution rates may be increased or decreased and DHC cannot be sure as to the rate at which future distributions will be paid; (c) the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement and the terms thereof were evaluated, negotiated and recommended to DHC’s Board of Trustees by a special committee of DHC’s Board of Trustees, comprised solely of DHC’s disinterested, Independent Trustees, and were separately approved by DHC’s Independent Trustees and by DHC’s Board of Trustees. Despite this process, DHC could be subject to claims challenging the proposed merger or other transactions or DHC’s entry into the merger and related agreements because of the multiple relationships among DHC, OPI and The RMR Group LLC (“RMR”) and their related persons and entities or other reasons, and defending even meritless claims could be expensive and distracting to management; and (d) DHC’s website contains statements regarding the expectations for proposed merger and the combined company which may imply that the combined company will achieve its expected strategic and financial goals and the shareholders will benefit from the growth potential of the combined company. However, the combined company will be subject to various risks, including: the risk that the combined businesses will not be integrated successfully or that the integration will be more costly or more time-consuming and complex than anticipated; the risk that cost savings and synergies anticipated to be realized by the merger may not be fully realized or may take longer to realize than expected; risks related to future opportunities, plans and strategy for the combined company, including the uncertainty of expected future financial performance, expected access to cash flows and capital, timing of accretion, distribution rates and results of the combined company following completion of the proposed merger and the challenges facing the industries in which each company currently operates and the combined company will, following the closing of the transaction, operate; risks related to the market value of the OPI common shares of beneficial interest to be issued in the proposed merger; risks associated with indebtedness incurred in connection with the proposed merger, including the potential inability to access, or reduced access to, the capital markets or other capital resources or increased cost of borrowings, including as a result of a credit rating downgrade; risks associated with the level of capital expenditures of each company and the combined company following the proposed merger; and risks associated with the impact of general economic, political and market factors on the combined company. As a result, the combined company may not achieve the long-term growth and value creation for shareholder as expected.

The information contained in DHC's periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including under “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” or incorporated therein, also identifies important factors that could cause DHC's actual results to differ materially from those stated in or implied by DHC's forward-looking statements. DHC's filings with the SEC are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov and are also accessible on DHC ’s website at the following link: SEC Filings.

You should not place undue reliance upon any forward-looking statements. Except as required by law, DHC does not intend to update or change any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The documents provided in this section are provided for historical purposes only. The information contained in each document is accurate only as of the date each document was originally issued or such earlier date stated in those documents. DHC does not undertake any obligation to update any information contained in these documents. For current information about DHC, please refer to DHC’s most recent public SEC Filings.

Recent Activities:

On July 29, 2010, Moody's Investors Service upgraded our senior unsecured bonds to an investment grade rating of Baa3 from Ba1.

In April 2010, we sold $200.0 million of senior unsecured notes. The notes require interest at a fixed rate of 6.75% per annum and are due in 2020. Net proceeds from the sale of the notes, after underwriting discounts and other expenses, were approximately $195.0 million. Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually in arrears. No principal payments are due until maturity. We used a portion of the net proceeds of this offering to repay $58.0 million in borrowings under our revolving credit facility, to fund the redemption of our $97.5 million outstanding 7.875% senior notes due 2015 and for general business purposes, including funding the acquisitions described below.

As described above, in April 2010, we called all $97.5 million of our outstanding 7.875% senior notes due 2015 for redemption on May 17, 2010. As a result of this redemption, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of approximately $2.4 million consisting of the debt prepayment premium of approximately $1.3 million and the write off of unamortized deferred financing fees of approximately $1.1 million.

In April 2010, we acquired a medical office building located in Colorado with 14,695 rentable square feet for approximately $4.5 million, excluding closing costs. We funded this acquisition using cash on hand and by assuming a mortgage loan for $2.5 million at an interest rate of 6.73% per annum.

In June 2010, we acquired a medical office building located in Texas with approximately 55,800 rentable square feet for approximately $12.2 million, excluding closing costs. We funded this acquisition using cash on hand.

Distributions declared per share $ 0.36 $ 0.36 $ 0.72 $ 0.71

(1) We compute FFO as shown above. Our calculation of FFO differs from the definition of FFO by the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts, or NAREIT, because we include deferred percentage rent, if any, exclude loss on early extinguishment of debt, if any, exclude impairment of assets, if any, and exclude acquisition costs, if any, in the determination of FFO. We consider FFO to be an appropriate measure of performance for a REIT, along with net income and cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities. We believe that FFO provides useful information to investors because by excluding the effects of certain historical amounts, such as depreciation expense, acquisition costs and gain or loss on sale of properties, FFO can facilitate a comparison of operating performances by a REIT over time and among REITs. FFO does not represent cash generated by operating activities in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered an alternative to net income or cash flow from operating activities as a measure of financial performance or liquidity. Also, other REITs may calculate FFO differently than we do.

(2) In May 2010, we redeemed all $97.5 million of our outstanding 7.875% senior notes due 2015. As a result of this redemption, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $2.4 million consisting of the debt prepayment premium of approximately $1.3 million and the write off of unamortized deferred financing fees and debt discount of approximately $1.1 million.

(3) During the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we recognized an impairment of assets charge of approximately $1.1 million related to five properties.

(4) Our percentage rents are generally calculated on an annual basis. We recognize percentage rental income received during the first, second and third quarters in the fourth quarter when all contingencies related to percentage rents are satisfied. Although recognition of this revenue is deferred until the fourth quarter, our FFO calculation for the first three quarters includes estimated amounts of deferred percentage rents with respect to those periods. The fourth quarter calculation of FFO excludes the amounts recognized during the first three quarters.
