PART I


Item 1. Business


General


EPR Properties (“we,” “us,” “our,” “EPR” or the “Company”) was formed on August 22, 1997 as a Maryland real estate investment trust (“REIT”), and an initial public offering of our common shares of beneficial interest (“common shares”) was completed on November 18, 1997. Since that time, the Company has grown intowe have been a leading specialty REIT with an investment portfolio that includes primarily entertainment,net lease investor in experiential real estate, venues which create value by facilitating out of home leisure and recreation experiences where consumers choose to spend their discretionary time and education properties. Themoney. We focus our underwriting of ourexperiential property investments is centered on key industry and property cash flow criteria, as well as the credit metrics of our tenants and customers.

The Company remains focused on future growth targeted in experiential property types. Experiential properties have proven to be an enduring sector of the real estate industry and we believe our strategy of diversified growth, industry relationships and the knowledge of our management team, provide us with a distinct competitive advantage. This strategy aligns with the long-term consumer trends of the growing experiential economy and offers the potential for higher growth, increased diversification and better yields. Our Education portfolio, consisting of early childhood education centers and private schools, continues as a legacy investment and provides additional geographic and property diversity. It is our intention to ultimately dispose of our Education portfolio over time.

Throughout the year the Company continued to navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, working closely with tenants. Our properties reopened as vaccines became broadly available and as this happened there was strong pent up demand for the activities our properties offer. The strength of this consumer-led recovery across our experiential properties was illustrated by our increased level of cash collections throughout the year. As further explained under “Growth Strategies” below,the year progressed we met the criteria which allowed for early termination of our investments are also guided bydebt covenant relief and resumption of our monthly cash dividend to common shareholders. In the fourth quarter we announced several items which enhanced our financial position, including cash collections which exceeded expectations, a focus on inflection opportunities that are associated with or support enduring uses, excellent executions, attractive economicsnew $1.0 billion revolving credit facility and successful issuance of $400.0 million in unsecured notes at a record low coupon for the Company. Our strengthened profile led to rating agency upgrades. With a solidified balance sheet position and an advantageous market position.active pipeline, we believe that we are well-positioned to accelerate our growth and expand our portfolio with diversified experiential properties.


We believe that our position is further supported by the fact that our customers offer popular and affordable entertainment and social outlet options, particularly through our theatres, eat & play and cultural venues. Additionally, we believe we benefited from our regional destinations (experiential lodging, ski, attractions and gaming properties) which are drive-to locations that do not require air travel.

The continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business will depend on several factors, including, but not limited to, the scope, severity and duration of any resurgence of the pandemic (including COVID-19 variants), the actions taken to contain the outbreak or any resurgence or mitigate their impacts, the distribution and efficacy of vaccines and therapeutics, the ability of communities to achieve herd immunity, the public’s confidence in the health and safety measures implemented by our tenants and borrowers, and the continuing direct and indirect economic effects of the outbreak and containment measures, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.

We are a self-administered REIT. As of December 31, 2017,2021, our total assets were approximately $6.2approximately $5.8 billion (after accumulated depreciation of approximately $0.7$1.2 billion). Our investments are generally structured as long-term triple-net leases that require the tenants to pay substantially all expenses associatedassociated with the operation and maintenance of the property, or as long-term mortgages with economics similar to our triple-net lease structure.


Our total investments (a non-GAAP financial measure) were approximately $6.7approximately $6.4 billion at December 31, 2017.2021. See "Non-GAAPItem 7 - "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for the calculation of total investments and reconciliation of total investments to "Total assets" in the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 20172021 and 2016.2020. We currently group our investments into four two

reportable operating segments: Entertainment, Recreation,Experiential and Education. As of December 31, 2021, our Experiential investments comprised $5.8 billion, or 91%, and our Education and Other. Ourinvestments comprised $0.6 billion, or 9%, of our total investments at December 31, 2017 consisted of interests in the following:

$2.9 billion or 44% related to entertainment properties, which includes megaplex theatres, entertainment retail centers (centers typically anchored by an entertainment component such as a megaplex theatre and containing other entertainment-related or retail properties), family entertainment centers and other retail parcels;

$2.2 billion or 32% related to recreation properties, which includes ski properties, attractions, golf entertainment complexes and other recreation facilities;

$1.4 billion or 21% related to education properties, which consists of investments in public charter schools, early education centers and K-12 private schools; and

$179.3 million or 3% related to other properties, which consists. A more detailed description of the Resorts World Catskills (formerly Adelaar) casino and resort project in Sullivan County, New York (excluding $50.6 million related to the Resorts World Catskills indoor waterpark projectproperty types included in recreation).within these segments is provided below.


We believe entertainment, recreation and education are highly enduring sectors of the real estate industry and that, as a result of our focus on properties in these sectors, industry relationships and the knowledge of our management,Going forward, we have a competitive advantage in providing capital to operators of these types of properties. We believe this focused niche approach offers the potential for higher growth and better yields.

We believe our management’s knowledge and industry relationships have facilitated favorable opportunities for us to acquire, finance and lease properties. Historically, our primary challenges have been locating suitable properties, negotiating favorable lease or financing terms, and managing our real estate portfolio as we have continued to grow.

We are particularly focused on experiential property categoriestypes which allow us to use our experience to mitigate some of the risks inherent in a changing economic environment. We cannot provide any assurance that any such potential investment or acquisition opportunities will arise in the near future, or that we will actively pursue any such opportunities.



Although we are primarily a long-term investor, we may also sell assets if we believe that it is in the best interest of our shareholders or pursuant to contractual rights of our tenants or our customers.


EntertainmentExperiential


As of December 31, 2017,2021, our EntertainmentExperiential segment consistedincluded total investments of investmentsapproximately $5.8 billion in megaplex theatres, entertainment retail centers, family entertainment centers and other retail parcels totaling approximately $2.9 billion with interests in:the following property types (owned or financed):

18 attraction properties;
11 ski properties;
eight experiential lodging properties;
one gaming property;
three cultural properties; and
seven entertainment retail centers (whichfitness & wellness properties.

As of December 31, 2021, our owned Experiential real estate portfolio of approximately 19.0 million square feet was 96.1% leased and included seven additional megaplex theatres) located in Colorado, New York, California, and Ontario, Canada;
11 family entertainment centers located in Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Florida and Texas;
land parcels leased to restaurant and retail operators adjacent to several of our theatre properties;
$101.3$42.4 million in construction in progress primarily for real estateproperty under development and redevelopment of megaplex theatres as well as other retail redevelopment projects; and
$4.5$20.2 million in undeveloped land inventory.


As of December 31, 2017, our owned real estate portfolio of megaplex theatres consisted of approximately 11.0 million square feet and was 100% leased and our remaining owned entertainment real estate portfolio consisted of 2.0 million square feet and was 96% leased. The combined owned entertainment real estate portfolio consisted of 13.1 million square feet and was 99% leased. Our owned theatre properties are leased to 15 different leading theatre operators. A significant portion of our total revenue was derived from rental payments by American Multi-Cinema, Inc. ("AMC"). For the year ended December 31, 2017, approximately $114.4 million or 19.9% of the Company's total revenues were derived from rental payments by AMC.

Theatres
A significant portion of our entertainment assets consistExperiential portfolio consists of modern megaplex theatres. Although we had no theatre properties closed due to COVID-19 restrictions as of December 31, 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic has continued to have a negative impact on the theatre industry. While studios pushed the majority of movie content to later in 2021 and beyond, certain studios chose to experiment with hybrid content release strategies in support of their direct-to-consumer streaming services. In these cases, the standard movie release strategy referred to as “release windows” was set aside as movies were either simultaneously released in theatres and through streaming services, or simply released directly through streaming services. Results of the various release experiments have demonstrated the economic importance of theatrical exhibition and studios returned to exclusive theatrical releases in late 2021. We believe the release windows are likely to coalesce around 45 days.

Certain theatre tenants continue to be on a cash-basis for revenue recognition purposes due to the ongoing uncertainty. We experienced vacancies at certain theatre properties and have determined to either sell these properties or manage them through a third-party manager. As theatres continue to be impacted by the pandemic, we will evaluate the best strategy for any future vacancies on a property-by-property basis.

The modern megaplex theatre provides a significantlygreatly enhanced audio and visual experience for patrons. Prior to the patrons versus other formats. A significantpandemic, there was a trend currently exists among national and local exhibitors to further enhance the customer experience. These enhancements include reserved, luxury seating and expanded food and beverage offerings, including the addition of alcohol and more efficient point of sale systems. The evolution of the theatre industry over the last 20 years from the sloped floor theatre to the megaplex stadium theatre to the expanded amenity theatre has demonstrated that

exhibitors and their landlords are willing to make investments in their theatres to take the customer experience to the next level.

As exhibitors improve Theatre operators re-initiated investments in improving the customer experience in 2021.

Moviegoing has been a dominant out-of-home entertainment option for decades, with more spacious and comfortable seating options, they are required to make physical changesover 1.2 billion tickets sold in North America during 2019 (prior to the existing seating configurationspandemic) according to the Motion Picture Association (MPA) 2019 Theme Report. We believe that typically resultthe evolution in theatres and enhanced customer experience will continue to bring customers back to enjoy film exhibition in a post-pandemic environment. While consumers have the option of watching streaming content at home, data has shown that theatre exhibition and streaming options have successfully coexisted. In fact, a survey published by EY (The Relationship Between Movie Theater Attendance and Streaming Behavior - February, 2020) illustrated that the most frequent moviegoers also spend the most time streaming. This is in part likely due to the fact that the majority of content streamed in-home is series-based content. Additionally, theatre exhibition remains a critical initial distribution platform for studios to fully monetize titles.

While theatres are the largest property type in our Experiential segment currently, it is expected that over time it will become a smaller percent of the portfolio. We expect this to occur as we limit any new investments in theatres, grow other target experiential property types and pursue opportunistic dispositions of theatre properties.

As of December 31, 2021, our owned theatre properties were leased to 18 different leading theatre operators. A significant lossportion of existing seats. Itour total revenue was oncefrom American Multi-Cinema, Inc. ("AMC"), Regal Entertainment Group ("Regal") and Cinemark USA, Inc. ("Cinemark"). For the year ended December 31, 2021, approximately $94.4 million, or 17.8%, $44.6 million or 8.4% and $42.4 million or 8.0% of the Company's total revenue was from AMC, Regal and Cinemark, respectively.

Eat & Play
The emergence of the "eatertainment" category has inspired an increasing number of successful concepts that appeal to consumers by providing good food and high-quality entertainment options all at one location. Our eat & play portfolio includes golf entertainment complexes, entertainment districts and family entertainment centers. These properties have broadly demonstrated a concern that such seat loss would be a negative to theatres that thrive on opening weekend business of new movie releases; however, customers have responded favorably to these changes. Exhibitors are learning that enhanced amenities are changingstrong recovery from the patrons’ movie-going habits resulting in significantly increased seat utilizationpandemic.

Our golf entertainment complexes combine golf with entertainment, competition and increased food and beverage revenue.

As exhibitors pursue the renovation of theatresservice, and are leased to, or we have mortgage receivables from, Topgolf USA ("Topgolf"). By combining interactive entertainment with enhanced amenities, we are working with our tenants generally toward the end of their primary lease terms to extend the terms of their leases beyond the initial option periods, finance improvements where applicablequality food and to recapture land where seat count reductions alleviate parking requirements. In conjunction with these changes, we may also make changes to the rental rates to better reflect the existing market demandsbeverage and additional capital invested. In addition to positioning expiring theatre assets for continued success, the renovation of these assets createsa long-lived recreational activity, Topgolf provides an opportunity to diversify the Company's tenant base into other entertainment or retail uses adjacent to a movie theatre.

The theatre box office continues to reflect solid performance. Box office revenues reached a record high during 2016innovative, enjoyable and were less than 3% lower than that record in 2017, according to Box Office Mojo.repeatable customer experience. We expect the development of new megaplex theatres and the conversion or partial conversion of existing theatres to enhanced amenity formats to continue in the United States and abroad over the long-term. As a resultto pursue select opportunities related to golf entertainment complexes. A significant portion of our total revenue was from Topgolf, which totaled approximately $86.5 million or 16.3%, of the significant capital commitment involvedCompany's total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2021.

in building new megaplex theatres and redeveloping existing theatres, as well as the experience and industry relationships of our management, we believe we will continue to have opportunities to provide capital to exhibition businesses in the future.


We also continue to seek opportunities for the acquisition, financing or development of additionalentertainment districts. Entertainment districts are restaurant, retail and other entertainment venues around our existing portfolio.typically anchored by a megaplex theatre. The opportunity to capitalize on the traffic generation of our existing market-dominant theatres to create entertainment retail centers (“ERCs”)districts not only strengthens the execution of the megaplex theatre but adds diversity to our tenant and asset base. We have and will continue to evaluate our existing portfolio for additional development of entertainment, retail and entertainmentrestaurant density, and we will also continue to evaluate the purchase or financing of existing ERCsentertainment districts that have demonstrated strong financial performance and meet our quality standards. The leasing and property management requirements of our ERCsentertainment districts are generally met through the use ofusing third-party professional service providers.


Our family entertainment center operators offer a variety of entertainment options including bowling, bocce ball and karting as well as an observation deck on the 94th floor of the John Hancock building in downtown Chicago, Illinois.

RecreationAttractions

Our attractions portfolio consists primarily of waterparks and amusement parks, each of which draw a diverse segment of customers. Prior to the pandemic, outdoor waterparks had historically experienced attendance growth since their inception in 1977.

Our attraction operators continue to deliver innovative and compelling attractions along with high standards of service, making our attractions a day of fun that is accessible for families, teens, locals and tourists. These attractions offer experiences designed to appeal to all ages while remaining accessible in both cost and proximity. As of December 31, 2017, our Recreation segment consisted of investmentsthe attractions industry continues to evolve, innovative technologies and concepts are redefining the attractions experience.

Our attraction properties are leased to, or we have mortgage notes receivable from, five different operators. We expect to continue to pursue opportunities in ski properties, attractions, golf entertainment complexes and other recreation totaling approximately $2.2 billion with interests in:this area.
26 ski properties located in 6 states;

Ski

All of the ski properties that serve as collateral for our mortgage notes in this area, as well as our fivethree owned properties, offer snowmaking capabilities and provide a variety of terrains and vertical drop options. We believe that the primary appeal of our ski properties lies in the convenient and reliable experience consumers can expect. Given that all of our ski properties are located near major metropolitan areas, they offer skiing, snowboarding and snowboardingother activities without the expense, travel, or lengthy preparations of remote ski resorts. Furthermore, advanced snowmaking capabilities increase the reliability of the experience during the winter versus other ski properties that do not have such capabilities.

Our ski properties were minimally impacted by the pandemic due to the outdoor nature of the activity and the convenient location of our properties. Our tenants adjusted operations to ensure the health and safety of customers, helping to drive attendance at our locations. These properties are leased to, or we have mortgage notes receivable from, 10 differentfrom, three different operators. We expect to continue to pursue opportunities in this area.


Experiential Lodging
Experiential lodging meets the needs of consumers by providing a convenient, central location that combines high-quality lodging amenities with entertainment, recreation and leisure activities. The appeal of these properties attracts multiple generations at once. We have seen demand for experiential lodging return as properties have reopened. Our attraction portfolio consists of waterparks and amusement parks, bothinvestments in experiential lodging have been typically structured using triple-net leases, however, we currently operate four properties (three of which draware included in an unconsolidated joint venture) through a diverse segmenttraditional REIT lodging structure. In the traditional REIT lodging structure, we hold qualified lodging facilities under the REIT and we separately hold the operations of customers. Our attraction operators continue to deliver innovative and compelling attractions alongthe facilities in taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRSs") which are facilitated by management agreements with high standards of service, making our attractions a day of fun that's accessible for families, teens, locals and tourists. Waterparks and amusement parks offer experiences designed to appeal to all ages while remaining accessible in both cost and proximity. As many waterparks are growing from single-day attendance to a destination getaway, we believe indoor waterpark hotels increase the four-season appeal at many resorts. Our attraction properties are leased to, or we have mortgage notes receivable from, seven different operators.eligible independent contractors.

We expect to continue to pursue opportunities related to golf entertainment complexes.

Our other recreation portfolio consists of both classic and innovative activities. This includes our investments in fitness and wellness properties, as well as in new recreation properties such as iFly, which provides a unique indoor sky-diving experience to its guests.

We will continue to seek opportunities for the development of, or acquisition of, other recreation related properties that leverage our expertise in this area.

Education

As of December 31, 2017, our Education segment consisted of investments in public charter schools, early education centers and K-12 private schools totaling approximately $1.4 billion with interests in:
65 public charter schools located in 19 states and the District of Columbia;
65 early education centers located in 17 states;
15 private schools located in 10 states;
$25.5 million in construction in progress for real estate development or expansions of public charter schools and early education centers; and
$12.4 million in undeveloped land inventory.

As of December 31, 2017, our owned education real estate portfolio consisted of approximately 4.2 million square feet and was 92% leased. This reflects the termination of nine CLA leases, as further discussed in Item 7 – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Recent Developments”.

Public charter schools are tuition-free, independent schools that are publicly funded by local, state and federal tax dollars based on enrollment. Driven by the need to improve the quality of public education and provide more school choices in the U.S., public charter schools are one of the fastest growing segments of the multi-billion dollar educational facilities sector, and we believe a critical need exists for the financing of new and refurbished educational facilities. To meet this need, we have established relationships with public charter school operators, authorizers and developers across the country and expect to continue to develop our leadership position in providing real estate financing in this area. Public charter schools are operated pursuant to charters granted by various state or other regulatory authorities and are dependent upon funding from local, state and federal tax dollars. Like public schools, public charter schools are required to meet both state and federal academic standards. We have 45 different operators for our owned public charter schools.

Various government bodieshotels that provide educational funding have pressurea wide array of experiential offerings outside of lodging and state-of-the-art gaming. Through live entertainment, various recreational opportunities, dining options and night clubs, the combination of amenities appeals to reduce their spending budgetsa broader demographic. In 2021, regional gaming properties continued to demonstrate stronger resilience versus Las Vegas strip casinos, as they are not dependent on air travel and have reduced educational funding in some cases and may continue to reduce educational funding in the future. This can impact our tenants' operations and potentially their ability to pay our scheduled rent. However, these reductions differ state by state and have historically been more significant at the post-secondary education level than at the K-12 level that our tenants serve. Furthermore, while there can be no assurance as to the level of these cuts, we analyze each state's fiscal situation and commitment to the charter school movement before providing financing in a new state, and also factor in anticipated reductions (as applicable) in the states in which we do decide to do business.conventions.


As with public charter schools, the Company's expansion into both early education centers and private schools is supported by strong unmet demand, and we expect to increase our investment in both of these areas.

Early education centers continue to see demand due to the proliferation of dual income families and the increasing emphasis on early childhood education, beyond traditional daycare. There is increased demand for curriculum-based, child-centered learning. We believe this property type is a logical extension of our education platform and allows us to increase our diversity and geographical reach with these assets.


We believe K-12 private schools have significant growth potential when they have differentiated, high quality offerings. Many private schools in large urban and suburban areas are at capacity and have large waiting lists making admission more difficult. The demand for nonsectarian private education has increased in recent years as parents and students become more focused on the comprehensive impact of a strong school environment.

We will continue to seek opportunities for the development of, or acquisition of, other education related properties that leverage our expertise in this area.

Many of our education lease and mortgage agreements contain purchase or prepayment options whereby the tenant or borrower can acquire the property or prepay the mortgage loan for a premium over the total development cost at certain points during the terms of the agreements. If these properties meet certain criteria, the tenants may be able to obtain bond or other financing at lower rates and therefore be motivated to exercise these options. We do not anticipate that all of these options will be exercised but cannot determine at this time the amount or timing of such option exercises. Additionally, it is difficult to forecast when these options will be exercised, which can create volatility in our earnings. In accordance with GAAP, prepayment penalties related to mortgage agreements are included in mortgage and other financing income and are included in FFO as adjusted (See Item 7 – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Funds From Operations” for a discussion of FFO and FFO as adjusted, which are non-GAAP measures). However, if a tenant exercises the option to purchase a property under lease, GAAP requires that a gain on sale be recognized for the amount of cash received over the carrying value of the property and gains on sale are typically excluded from FFO as adjusted. Accordingly, for consistency in presentation and with the wording and intent of the lease provisions, we treat the premium over the total development cost (i.e. the undepreciated cost) as a termination fee and include such fees in FFO as adjusted, and only the difference between the total development cost and the carrying value is treated as gain on sale and excluded from FFO as adjusted.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, we received prepayment of $3.4 million on one mortgage note receivable that was secured by a public charter school located in Dallas, Texas and we received a prepayment fee of $0.6 million.  In addition, pursuant to tenant purchase options, we completed the sale of eight public charter schools located in Colorado, Arizona, North Carolina and Utah for net proceeds totaling $97.3 million.  In connection with these sales, we recognized gains on sale of $20.7 million of which $20.0 million has been included in termination fees in FFO as adjusted (a non-GAAP financial measure) per the methodology discussed above.

As of December 31, 2017, an estimate of the number of education properties potentially impacted by option exercises, the total development cost and the total potential amount of the prepayment penalties or lease termination fees2021, our investment in the first option period by year are as follows (dollars in thousands):

Cultural
Our cultural investments seek to engage consumers and create memorable experiences and are evolving to offer immersive and interactive exhibits that encourage repeat visits. Combining an opportunity to experience animals, art or history with a congregate social experience, cultural venues, such as zoos, aquariums and museums, are reemerging as an entertainment option. As appreciation for the importance of leisure time is growing, cultural venues are broadening their appeal to reach a variety of customers.

Desiring to be a preeminent choice in what is now known as location-based experiences, several trends have developed among cultural venues. Many are utilizing new technology, personalizing the guest experience and implementing an element of play that was previously absent. In making new investments in this property type, we will continue to identify the locations and tenants that execute well on these trends and have a history of strong attendance. City Museum in St. Louis is one of our properties and is a great example of an emerging category called “artainment” which is an art display that invites guests to interact and explore.

Our cultural investments saw increased demand as they remained open. We believe that demand for cultural activities will continue to build and we expect to continue to pursue opportunities in this area.

Fitness & Wellness
In recent years, consumers have begun to spend more time and money on their well-being. The diverse offerings of boutique and larger fitness centers have caught the interest of many consumers, driving an expansion of both fitness and more broadly, the wellness industry. By allowing fitness club members to focus on their individual interests and goals in a community setting, operators gain loyalty and retention which are essential elements in the ongoing success of a facility. Commercial fitness centers have stayed at the forefront of the industry by offering personalization within congregate settings. Our tenants make it their goal to motivate, educate, and to help consumers look and feel better.

We will continue to seek opportunities for the acquisition, financing or development of other experiential properties that leverage our expertise in this area.

Education

As of December 31, 2021, our Education segment included total investments of approximately $0.6 billion in the following property types (owned or financed):
65 early childhood education center properties; and
9 private school properties.

As of December 31, 2021, our owned Education real estate portfolio of approximately 1.4 million square feet was 100% leased.

Our private schools have been minimally impacted by the pandemic as they were able to migrate from remote to in-person learning. Our early childhood education centers continue to demonstrate recovery as more parents return to working in their offices. As discussed above, our growth going forward will be focused on experiential properties and therefore we do not expect to seek additional opportunities for education properties.

Operating Strategies


Lease Risk Minimization
To avoid initial lease-up risks and produce a predictable income stream, we typically acquire or develop single-tenant properties that are leased under long-term leases. We believe our willingness to make long-term investments
6


in properties offers our tenants financial flexibility and allows tenants to allocate capital to their core businesses. Although we will continue to emphasize single-tenant properties, we have acquired or developed, and may continue to acquire or develop, multi-tenant properties we believe add shareholder value.


Lease Structure
We have structured our leasing arrangements to achieve a positive spread between our cost of capital and the rents paid by our tenants. We typically structure leases on a triple-net basis under which the tenants bear the principal portion of the financial and operational responsibility for the properties. During each lease term and any renewal periods, the leases typically provide for periodic increases in rent and/or percentage rent based upon a percentage of the tenant’s gross sales over a pre-determined level. In our multi-tenant property leases and some of our theatre leases, we generally require the tenant to pay a common area maintenance (“CAM”) charge to defray its pro rata share of insurance, taxes and maintenance costs.


Mortgage Structure
We have structured our mortgages to achieve economics similar to our triple-net lease structure with a positive spread between our cost of capital and the interest paid by our tenants. During each mortgage term and any renewal periods, the notes typically provide for periodic increases in interest and/or participating features based upon a percentage of the tenant’s gross sales over a pre-determined level.


Traditional REIT Lodging Structure
In certain limited instances, we have utilized traditional REIT lodging structures, where we hold qualified lodging facilities under the REIT and we separately hold the operations of the facilities in TRSs which are facilitated by management agreements with eligible independent contractors. However, we currently anticipate migrating over time some of what we hold in such structures to more traditional net lease or mortgage arrangements.

Development and Redevelopment
We intend to continue developing properties and redeveloping existing properties that are consistent with our growth strategies. We generally do not begin development of a single-tenant property without a signed lease providing for rental payments that are commensurate with our level of capital investment. In the case of a multi-tenant development, we generally require a significant amount of the development to be pre-leased prior to construction to minimize lease-up risks. In addition, to minimize overhead costs and to provide the greatest amount of flexibility, we generally outsource construction management to third-party firms.


We believe our build-to-suit development program is a competitive advantage. First, we believe our strong relationships with our tenants and developers drive new investment opportunities that are often exclusive to us, rather than bid broadly, and with our deep knowledge of their businesses, we believe we are a value-added partner in the underwriting of each new investment. Second, we offer financing from start to finish for a build-to-suit project such that there is no need for a tenant to seek separate construction and permanent financing, which we believe makes us a more attractive partner. Third, we are actively developing strong relationships with tenants in our select segmentsthe experiential sector leading to multiple investments without strict investment portfolio allocations. Finally, multiple investments with the same tenant allows us in most cases to include cross-default provisions in our lease or financing contracts, meaning a default in an obligation to us at one location is a default under all obligations with that tenant.
We will also investigate opportunities to redevelop certain of our existing properties. We may redevelop properties in conjunction with a lease renewal or new tenant, or we may redevelop properties that have more earnings potential due to the redevelopment. Additionally, certain of our properties have excess land where we will proactivelypro-actively seek opportunities to further develop.

Tenant and Customer Relationships
We intend to continue developing and maintaining long-term working relationships with entertainment, recreation, education and other specialty businessexperiential operators and developers by providing capital for multiple properties on a regional, national and international basis, thereby creating efficiency and value for both the operators and the Company.

Portfolio Diversification
We will endeavor to further diversify our asset base by property type, geographic location and tenant or customer. In pursuing this diversification strategy, we will target entertainment, recreation, education and other specialtyexperiential business operators that we view as leaders in their market segmentsproperty types and have the ability to compete effectively and perform under their agreements with the Company.


Dispositions
We will consider discretionary property dispositions for reasons such as creating price awareness of a certain property type,under performance, opportunistically taking advantage of an above marketabove-market offer, or reducing exposure related to a certain tenant, property type or geographic area.area, or creating price awareness of a certain property type.


Capitalization Strategies


Debt and Equity Financing
Our ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDA,We believe that our shareholders are best served by a non-GAAP measure (see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for definitions and reconciliations), is our primary measure to evaluate our capital structure and the magnitude of our debt against our operating performance. Additionally, we utilize our ratio of net debt to gross assets as a secondary measure to evaluate ourconservative capital structure. We expectTherefore, we seek to maintain a conservative debt level on our balance sheet as measured primarily by our net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio between 4.6x to 5.6x. SeeEBITDAre, a non-GAAP measure (see Item 7 – “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition - Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for definitions and Results of Operations - Liquidityreconciliations). We also seek to maintain conservative interest, fixed charge, debt service coverage and Capital Resources” for a further discussion of this ratio.net debt to gross asset ratios.


We rely primarily on an unsecured debt structure. In the future, while we may obtain secured debt from time to time or assume secured debt financing obligations in acquisitions, we intend to issue primarily unsecured debt securities to satisfy our debt financing needs. We believe this strategy increases our access to capital and permits us to more efficiently match available debt and equity financing to our ongoing capital requirements.


Our sources of equity financing consist of the issuance of common shares as well as the issuance of preferred shares (including convertible preferred shares). In addition to larger underwritten registered public offerings of both common and preferred shares, we have also offered shares pursuant to registered public offerings through the direct share purchase component of our Dividend Reinvestment and Direct Share Purchase Plan (“DSP Plan”). While such offerings are generally smaller than a typical underwritten public offering, issuing common shares under the direct share purchase component of our DSP Plan allows us to access capital on a more frequent basis in a cost-effective manner. We expect to opportunistically access the equity markets in the future and, depending primarily on the size and timing of our equity capital needs, may continue to issue shares under the direct share purchase component of our DSP Plan. Furthermore, we may issue shares in connection with acquisitions in the future.

Joint Ventures
We will examine and may pursue potential additional joint venture opportunities with institutional investors or developers if the investments to which they relate meet our guiding principles discussed above. We may employ higher leverage in joint ventures.ventures and be more inclined to use secured financing at the property level.



Payment of Regular Dividends
We pay dividend distributions to our common shareholders on a monthly basis (as opposed to a quarterly basis). We expecttemporarily suspended our monthly cash dividend to continue to paycommon shareholders after the common share dividend distributions to our preferred shareholders onpayable May 15, 2020. We reinstituted this monthly cash dividend in July 2021 at a quarterly basis.rate of $0.25 per common share. Our Series C cumulative convertible preferred shares (“Series C preferred shares”) have a dividend rate of 5.75%, our Series E cumulative convertible preferred shares (“Series E preferred shares”) have a dividend rate of 9.00% and our Series G cumulative redeemable preferred shares ("Series G preferred shares") have a dividend rate of 5.75%. Among the factors the Company’s board of trustees (“Board of Trustees”) considers in setting the common share dividend rate are the applicable REIT tax rules and regulations that apply to dividends, the Company’s results of operations, including FFO and FFO as adjustedFFOAA per share, and the Company’s Cash Available for Distribution (defined as net cash flow available for distribution after payment of operating expenses, debt service, preferred dividends and other obligations).

Competition


We compete for real estate financing opportunities with other companies that invest in real estate, as well as traditional financial sources such as banks and insurance companies. REITs have financed, and may continue to seek to finance, entertainment, recreation, educationexperiential and other specialty properties as new properties are developed or become available for acquisition.


EmployeesHuman Capital


Our strategy is specializing in investments in select enduring experiential properties in the real estate industry, and our people are vital to our success in executing on this strategy. As a human-capital intensive business, the long-term success of our firm depends on our people. Our Senior Vice President, Human Resources and Administration works in conjunction with our Executive Vice President and General Counsel, who reports directly to our Chief Executive Officer, to develop and oversee our human capital management objectives, programs and initiatives. In addition, our Board of Trustees is actively involved in our human capital management in its oversight of our long-term strategy and through its Compensation and Human Capital Committee and engagement with management. Our management regularly reports to the Compensation and Human Capital Committee regarding management's human capital objectives, programs and initiatives.

Our key human capital objectives are to attract, retain and develop the highest quality talent to ensure that we have the right talent, in the right place, at the right time. To achieve these objectives, our human capital programs are designed to develop talent to prepare them for critical roles and leadership positions for the future; reward and support employees through competitive pay, benefit, and perquisite programs; enhance our culture through efforts aimed at making the workplace more engaging and inclusive; acquire talent and facilitate internal talent mobility to create a high-performing, diverse workforce; and evolve and invest in technology, tools, and resources to enable employees at work. As of December 31, 2017,2021, we had 6353 full-time employees.


Examples of key programs and initiatives that are focused to attract, develop and retain our diverse workforce include:

Employee Engagement. We use Gallup to measure employee engagement through a survey administered annually. This helps us to understand the overall level of engagement of our associates. By focusing on engagement we gather valuable information needed to engage and retain the most talented associates.

Development. We provide opportunities for our associates to learn and thrive as professionals, including educational reimbursement, mentorship, executive coaching and ongoing professional development. Annually, EPR hosts leadership development sessions for all levels of our organization. In 2021, we hosted and facilitated virtual sessions with an external professional, focused on “Elevating Your Leadership.”

Diversity, equity and inclusion ("DE&I"). Our DE&I objectives are to ensure our culture is evolving and inclusive, and build teams that reflect the life experiences of our customers and the ultimate consumers of our customers’ services. Specific steps we have taken to address our commitment to DE&I include:
Hosting in 2021 culture-changing and learning opportunities regarding DE&I with external experts and the response was overwhelmingly positive;
Adopting policies with respect to recruiting processes to ensure an active approach to diversification at all areas of our organization including requiring diverse candidates be interviewed for every open position;
Establishing a partnership with a local charter school to provide internship opportunities to diverse alumni as a means to invest in a future and local diverse talent pipeline; and
Sponsoring since 2015, the EPR Women’s Initiative Network ("EWIN"), that represents and supports our diverse communities within our workforce. EWIN facilitates networking and connections with peers, outreach and mentoring, leadership and skill development. Most of our employees regularly participate in EWIN programs.

Compensation and Benefits. Our benefits include competitive base pay, performance-based restricted stock awards and a 401(k) with a robust company match. We support our employees’ physical and mental health through paid parental leave, industry-leading health care benefits, unlimited sick leave, flexible paid time off and employee assistance programs. In addition, we offer yearly wellness reimbursements, an on-site fitness center and fully stocked kitchens.

Community & Social Impact. Giving back is one of our core values. We demonstrate this through our charitable giving program, EPR Impact, a key cornerstone of our social responsibility. Through a number of employees actively engaged in nonprofits and our commitment to donating to and sponsoring charitable causes and events, we are fortunate to partner with amazing organizations both locally and nationally. As a benefit to employees, EPR Impact’s annual budget includes a pool of funds to support employee-directed contributions to nonprofit organizations where an employee is personally involved. Additionally, EPR will match employee contributions annually up to a given amount for contributions from their personal funds to nonprofit organizations that meet the criteria of the program. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, “EPRcares” was formed as a way to raise employee funds to provide relief to local front-line workers. This initiative raised over $47,000 and aided 51 organizations in 2020. Additionally, in both 2020 and 2021 EPR Impact supported a giving initiative, “The Amazing Giving Race,” for employees to support local charities and other causes.

Regulation

To maintain our status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we must distribute to our shareholders at least 90% of our taxable income for a calendar year, as well as satisfy certain assets, income, organizational, distribution, stockholder ownership and other requirements on a continuing basis. In addition, we are subject to numerous federal, state and local laws and regulations applicable to owners of real property. For instance, under federal, state and local environmental laws, we may be liable for the costs of removal or remediation of certain hazardous or toxic substances at, on, in or under our properties, as well as certain other potential costs relating to hazardous or toxic substances (including government fines and penalties and damages for injuries to persons and adjacent property). These laws may impose liability without regard to whether we knew of, or were responsible for, the presence or disposal of those substances. In addition, most of our properties must comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA"). The ADA requires that public accommodations reasonably accommodate individuals with disabilities and that new construction or alterations be made to commercial facilities to conform to accessibility guidelines. The ownership, operation, and management of our gaming facilities are also subject to pervasive regulation. These gaming regulations impact our gaming tenants and persons associated with our gaming facilities, which in many jurisdictions include us as the landlord and owner of the real estate.

Our properties are also subject to various other federal, state and local regulatory requirements. We do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether compliance with future requirements will involve significant unanticipated expenditures. Although these expenditures would be the responsibility of our tenants in most cases and for our managers to oversee at our properties, if these tenants or managers fail to perform these obligations, we may be required to do so. For additional information regarding regulations applicable to our business, and risks associated with our failure to comply with such regulations, see Item 1A – "Risk Factors" in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Risks That May Impact Our Financial Condition or Performance


The novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, has negatively impacted and caused disruption to, and the future outbreak of any additional variants of COVID-19 or any other highly infectious or contagious diseases could materially and adversely impact or cause disruption to, our performance, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
The COVID-19 pandemic has severely impacted global economic activity and caused significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many jurisdictions within the United States and abroad instituted health and safety measures, including quarantines, mandated business and school closures and travel restrictions. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted experiential real estate properties given that such properties involve congregate social activity and discretionary consumer spending. Although many of these health and safety measures have been lifted, the extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business still remains highly uncertain and difficult to predict. Most of our tenants and borrowers announced temporary closures of their operations during this pandemic. Many experts predicted that the pandemic would trigger a period of global economic slowdown or a global recession. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively affected, and the COVID-19 pandemic (or a future outbreak of any additional variants of COVID-19 or other pandemic) could have material and adverse effects on, our ability, and the ability of our customers, to successfully operate and on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows due to, among other factors:

complete or partial closures of, or other operational issues at, our properties resulting from government, tenant or borrower action;
the reduced economic activity has severely impacted our tenants' and borrowers’ businesses, financial condition and liquidity and caused most of our tenants and borrowers to obtain modifications of their obligations to us;
most of our tenants obtained varying levels of deferral of rent since the outbreak of COVID-19 and may have difficulty repaying those deferrals as they become due;
the reduced economic activity could result in a recession, which could negatively impact consumer discretionary spending;
many of our tenants and borrowers incurred additional debt and liabilities during the COVID-19 pandemic and may have more credit risk than before;
difficulty accessing debt and equity capital on attractive terms, or at all, and a severe disruption and instability in the global financial markets or deteriorations in credit and financing conditions may affect our access to capital necessary to fund business operations or address maturing liabilities on a timely basis and our tenants' and borrowers’ ability to fund their business operations and meet their obligations to us;
a general decline in business activity and demand for real estate transactions would adversely affect our ability or desire to grow our portfolio of experiential real estate properties;
disruptions in the labor market may impact tenants’ and borrowers’ ability to operate or incur increased labor costs;
a deterioration in our and our tenants' and borrowers’ ability to operate in affected areas or delays in the supply of products or services to us and our tenants and borrowers from vendors that are needed for our and
11


our tenants' and borrowers’ efficient operations has adversely affected and may continue to adversely affect our operations and those of our tenants and borrowers; and
the potential negative impact on the health of our personnel, particularly if a significant number of them are impacted, would result in a deterioration in our ability to ensure business continuity during a disruption.

The ultimate extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our operations and those of our tenants and borrowers will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of any resurgence of the pandemic (including COVID-19 variants), the actions taken to contain the outbreak or any resurgence or mitigate their impacts, the distribution of vaccines and the efficacy of those vaccines, the ability of communities to achieve herd immunity, the public’s confidence in the health and safety measures implemented by our tenants and borrowers, the continuing direct and indirect economic effects of the outbreak and containment measures, and the ability of our tenants and borrowers to recover from the negative economic impacts of the pandemic as it subsides, and in many cases, service elevated levels of debt resulting from the pandemic, among others. The financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could negatively impact our future compliance with financial covenants of our credit facility and other debt agreements and result in a default and potentially an acceleration of indebtedness. Such non-compliance could negatively impact our ability to make additional borrowings under our revolving credit facility, pay dividends and repurchase common shares under our share repurchase program.

Global economic uncertainty and disruptions in the financial markets may impair our ability to refinance existing obligations or obtain new financing for acquisition or development of properties.
There continues to beexists a high level of global economic uncertainty. Increased uncertainty, inincluding uncertainty regarding inflation and the wakeimpact of the "Brexit" referendum inCOVID-19 pandemic after its subsidence. Regarding experiential industries, it is unclear whether the United Kingdom in June 2016,COVID-19 pandemic will negatively impact future consumer preferences regarding congregate activities, such as those offered by theatres, casinos, restaurants, attractions and other industries in which the majority of voters voted in favor of an exit from the European Union, the formal notice by the United Kingdom in March 2017 of its exit from the European Union, as well as political changeswe invest. Political decisions and uncertainty in the U.S. and abroad, such as the direction and levels of stimulus spending in response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, have contributed to volatility in the global financial markets. AlthoughMany economists believe that the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic will present a significant risk of a recession to the U.S. economy

has continued to improve, there can be no assurances that the U.S. economy will continue to improve or that a future recession will not occur.economy. We rely in part on debt financing to finance our investments and development. To the extent that turmoil in the financial markets returnscontinues or intensifies, it has the potential to adversely affect our ability to refinance our existing obligations as they mature or obtain new financing for acquisition or development of properties and adversely affect the value of our investments. If we are unable to refinance existing indebtedness on attractive terms at its maturity, we may be forced to dispose of some of our assets. Uncertain economic conditions and disruptions in the financial markets could also result in a substantial decrease in the value of our investments, which could also make it more difficult to refinance existing obligations or obtain new financing. In addition, these factors may make it more difficult for us to sell properties or may adversely affect the price we receive for properties that we do sell, as prospective buyers may experience increased costs of capital or difficulties in obtaining capital. These events in the credit markets may have an adverse effect on other financial markets in the U.S., which may make it more difficult or costly for us to raise capital through the issuance of our common shares or preferred shares. In addition, disruptions in global financial markets may have other adverse effects on us, our tenants, our borrowers or the economy in general.


Inflation could adversely impact our customers and our results of operations.
Inflation, both real or anticipated as well as any resulting governmental policies, could adversely affect the economy and the costs of labor, goods and services to our tenants or borrowers. Our long-term leases and loans typically contain provisions such as rent escalators, percentage rent or participating interest, designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. However, these provisions may have limited effectiveness at mitigating the risk of high levels of inflation due to contractual limits on escalation which exist on substantially all of our escalation provisions and the uncertainty that percentage rent and participating interest provisions will capture the impact of such inflation through higher revenues realized at the applicable properties. Many of our leases are triple-net and typically require the tenant to pay all property operating expenses and, therefore, increases in property-level expenses at our leased properties generally do not directly affect us. However, increased operating costs resulting from inflation could have an adverse impact on our tenants and borrowers if increases in their operating expenses exceed increases in their revenue, which may adversely affect our tenants’ or borrowers' ability to pay rent or other obligations owed to us.
12


An increase in our customers' expenses and a failure of their revenues to increase at least with inflation could adversely impact our customers' and our financial condition and our results of operations.

Additionally, a portion of our leases are not triple-net leases which exposes us to the risk of potential "CAM slippage," which may occur when the actual cost of taxes, insurance and maintenance at the property exceeds the CAM fees paid by tenants. To the extent any of these leases contain fixed expense reimbursement provisions or limitations, we may be subject to increases in costs resulting from inflation that are not fully passed through to tenants which could adversely impact our financial condition and our results of our operations.

Some of our investments have been structured using more traditional REIT lodging structures or are managed through a third-party manager. In the traditional REIT lodging structure, we hold qualified lodging facilities under the REIT and we separately hold the operations of the facilities in taxable REIT subsidiaries (TRSs) which are facilitated by management agreements with eligible independent contractors. Under this structure and when we manage properties through a third-party manager, we rely on the performance of our properties and the ability of the properties' managers to increase revenues to keep pace with inflation which may be limited by competitive pressures. An increase in our expenses at these properties and a failure of our revenues to increase at least with inflation could adversely impact our financial condition and our results of operations.

Most of our customers, consisting primarily of tenants and borrowers, operate properties in market segments that depend upon discretionary spending by consumers. Any continued reduction in discretionary spending by consumers within the market segments in which our customers or potential customers operate could adversely affect such customers' operations and, in turn, reduce the demand for our properties or financing solutions.
Most of our portfolio is leased to or financed with customers operating service or retail businesses on our property locations. Movie theatres, entertainment retail centers, recreation and entertainment venues, early childhood education centers, private K-12 schools, ski properties and attractions represent someMany of the largest market investments in our portfolio; and AMC, Topgolf, Regal Cinemas, Inc. and Cinemark USA, Inc. represented our largestthese customers for the year ended December 31, 2017.operate services or businesses that are dependent upon consumer experiences. The success of most of these businesses depends on the willingness or ability of consumers to use their discretionary income to purchase our customers' products or services. A downturn in the economy, or a trend to not want to go "out of home" could cause consumers in each of our property types to reduce their discretionary spending within the market segments in which our customers or potential customers operate, which could adversely affect such customers' operations and, in turn, reduce the demand for our properties or financing solutions. The COVID-19 pandemic significantly reduced and impeded consumer discretionary spending, which severely impacted experiential real estate properties, including those of our customers, and, although consumer discretionary spending is beginning to recover, it is unclear whether the COVID-19 pandemic will negatively impact future consumer preferences regarding congregate activities.


Covenants in our debt instruments could adversely affect our financial condition and our acquisitions and development activities.
Our unsecured revolving credit facility, senior notes and other loans that we may obtain in the future contain certain cross-default provisions as well as customary restrictions, requirements and other limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness, including covenants involving our maximum total debt to total asset value; maximum permitted investments; minimum tangible net worth; maximum secured debt to total asset value; maximum unsecured debt to eligible unencumbered properties; minimum unsecured interest coverage; and minimum fixed charge coverage. Our ability to borrow under our unsecured revolving credit facility is also subject to compliance with certain other covenants. We also have senior notes issued in a private placement transaction that are subject to certain covenants. In addition, some of our properties, including those held in joint ventures, are subject to mortgages that contain customary covenants such as those that limit our ability, without the prior consent of the lender, to further mortgage the applicable property or to discontinue insurance coverage.

The continuing financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could negatively impact our future compliance with financial covenants of our credit facility and other debt agreements and result in a default and potentially an acceleration of indebtedness. Under those circumstances, other sources of capital may not be available to us, or be available only on unattractive terms. Additionally, our ability to satisfy current or prospective lenders' insurance requirements may be adversely affected if lenders generally insist upon greater insurance coverage against acts of terrorism than is available to us in the marketplace or on commercially reasonable terms.

13


We rely on debt financing, including borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility, issuances of debt securities and debt secured by individual properties, to finance our acquisition and development activities and for working capital. If we are unable to obtain financing from these or other sources, or to refinance existing indebtedness upon maturity, our financial condition and results of operations would likely be adversely affected. The ultimate extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our ability to comply with existing financial covenants and obtain financing will depend on future developments, which, as discussed above, are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence.

Adverse changes in our credit ratings could impair our ability to obtain additional debt and equity financing on favorable terms, if at all, and negatively impact the market price of our securities, including our common shares.
The credit ratings of our senior unsecured debt and preferred equity securities are based on our operating performance, liquidity and leverage ratios, overall financial position and other factors employed by the credit rating agencies in their rating analysesanalysis of us. Our credit ratings can affect the amount and type of capital we can access, as well as the terms of any financings we may obtain. There can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our current credit ratings, particularly in light of the continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, and in the event that our current credit ratings deteriorate, we would likely incur a higher cost of capital and it may be more difficult or expensive to obtain additional financing or refinance existing obligations and commitments. Also, a downgradedowngrades in our credit ratings would trigger additional costs or other potentially negative consequences under our current and future credit facilities and future debt instruments.


An increase in interest rates could increase interest cost on new debt and could materially adversely impact our ability to refinance existing debt, sell assets and limit our acquisition and development activities.
TheAlthough the U.S. Federal Reserve increased itshas generally maintained a low benchmark interest rate multiple times in 2017 and has continued signalingrecent years, there can be no assurances that rates could continue to rise.the rate will not increase in the future. If interest rates continue to increase, so could our interest costs for any new debt. This increased cost could make the financing of any acquisition and development activity more costly. Rising interest rates could limit our ability to refinance existing debt when it matures or cause us to pay higher interest rates upon refinancing and increase interest expense on refinanced indebtedness. In addition, an increase in interest rates could decrease the amount third parties are willing to pay for our assets, thereby limiting our ability to reposition our portfolio promptly in response to changes in economic or other conditions.

We previously made a significant investment in a planned casino and resort development (the “Resorts World Catskills Project”), which is now the subject of ongoing litigation. We cannot predict the duration or outcome of this litigation. Prolonged litigation or an unfavorable outcome could have a material adverse effect on the Resorts World Catskills Project or our financial condition and results of operations.
Prior proposed casino and resort developers Concord Associates, L.P., Concord Resort, LLC and Concord Kiamesha LLC, which are affiliates of Louis Cappelli and from whom we acquired the Resorts World Catskills resort property (the "Cappelli Group"), commenced litigation against the Company beginning in 2011 regarding matters relating to the acquisition of that property and our relationship with Empire Resorts, Inc. ("Empire Resorts") and certain of its subsidiaries (together with Empire Resorts, collectively, the "Empire Project Parties"). This litigation involves three

separate cases filed in state and federal court. Two of the cases, a state and the federal case, are closed and resulted in no liability to the Company.

The remaining case was filed on October 20, 2011 by the Cappelli Group against the Company and two of its affiliates in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Westchester (the "Westchester Action"), asserting a claim for breach of contract and the implied covenant of good faith, and seeking damages of at least $800 million, based on allegations that the Company had breached an agreement (the "Casino Development Agreement"), dated June 18, 2010. We moved to dismiss the complaint in the Westchester Action based on a decision issued by the Sullivan County Supreme Court (one of the two closed cases discussed above) on June 30, 2014, as affirmed by the Appellate Division, Third Department (the "Sullivan Action"). On January 26, 2016, the Westchester County Supreme Court denied the our motion to dismiss but ordered the Cappelli Group to amend its pleading and remove all claims and allegations previously determined by the Sullivan Action. On February 18, 2016, the Cappelli Group filed an amended complaint asserting a single cause of action for breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing based upon allegations the Company had interfered with plaintiffs’ ability to obtain financing which complied with the Casino Development Agreement. On March 23, 2016, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the Cappelli Group’s revised amended complaint. On January 5, 2017, the Westchester County Supreme Court denied the Company’s second motion to dismiss. Discovery is ongoing.

We believe we have meritorious defenses to this litigation and intend to defend it vigorously. There can be no assurances, however, as to the duration or ultimate outcome of this litigation, nor can there be any assurances as to the costs we may incur in defending against or resolving this litigation. In addition, if the outcome of the litigation is unfavorable to us, it could result in a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

The success of the Resorts World Catskills Project is largely dependent upon the successful development and operation of the Resorts World Casino and Resort, which requires the Empire Project Parties to comply with the terms of a gaming license. If Empire Resorts fails to satisfy its obligations under the gaming license, the Resorts World Catskills Project may be indefinitely delayed or canceled, and if we are unable to identify suitable alternative uses for the property, this could lead to a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
On December 21, 2015, Montreign Operating Company, LLC (“Montreign”), a subsidiary of Empire Resorts, was awarded a license (a “Gaming Facility License”) by the New York State Gaming Commission to operate the Resorts World Catskills Casino and Resort, a key component of the Resorts World Catskills Project. On January 17, 2018, the Resorts World Catskills Casino and Resort announced its plans to open the casino resort to the public on February 8, 2018. The Gaming Facility License is subject to a number of conditions, including the requirement that Montreign invest, or cause to be invested, no less than $854 million in the initial phase of the Resorts World Catskills Project, as well as additional and continuing regulatory conditions imposed by the Gaming Commission.

There can be no assurance that the Resorts World Catskills Casino and Resort will fully comply with the financial or other conditions of the Gaming Facility License. In the event it fails to comply with the conditions of the Gaming Facility License, the Resorts World Catskills Project may be indefinitely delayed or canceled, and there can be no assurance that a suitable alternate use for the property, whether involving gaming or otherwise, will be identified, which could result in a material adverse effect on our investment and on our financial condition and results of operations.

We expect to finance the cost of construction of common infrastructure at the Resorts World Catskills Project primarily through the issuance of tax-exempt public infrastructure bonds, and we could overrun budgeted costs for such infrastructure construction, which could significantly exceed the proceeds from the issuance of such bonds.
We are responsible for the construction of the Resorts World Catskills Project common infrastructure, which is expected to be financed primarily through the issuance of tax-exempt public infrastructure bonds. The debt service of these bonds is expected to be paid primarily through special assessments levied against the property held by the benefited users.  In June 2016, the Sullivan County Infrastructure Local Development Corporation issued $110.0 million of Series 2016 Revenue Bonds, which is expected to fund a substantial portion of such construction costs. We received an initial reimbursement of $43.4 million of construction costs and additional reimbursements of $23.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2017, and we expect to receive an additional $21.0 million of reimbursements over the balance of the construction period, which is expected to be completed in 2018. There can be no assurance that the cost of construction of common infrastructure for the Resorts World Catskills Project will not exceed our budgeted amounts

of approximately $90.0 million, subject to budget adjustments and related approvals. If so, such excess may not be funded by the tax-exempt public infrastructure bonds and, to the extent they exceed certain negotiated caps, or are allocated to land held by us for development, may not be proportionately recovered from our tenants.


We depend on leasing space to tenants on economically favorable terms and collecting rent from our tenants, who may not be able to pay.
At any time, a tenant may experience a downturn in its business that may weaken its financial condition. Similarly, a general decline in the economy may result in a decline in demand for space at our commercial properties. Our financial results depend significantly on leasing space at our properties to tenants on economically favorable terms. In addition, because a majority of our income comes from leasing real property, our income, funds available to pay indebtedness and funds available for distribution to our shareholders or share repurchases will decrease if a significant number of our tenants cannot pay their rent or if we are not able to maintain our levels of occupancy on favorable terms. If our tenants cannot pay their rent or we are not able to maintain our levels of occupancy on favorable terms, there is also a risk that the fair value of the underlying property will be considered less than its carrying value and we may have to take a charge against earnings. In addition, if a tenant does not pay its rent, we might not be able to enforce our rights as landlord without significant delays and substantial legal costs.


If a tenant becomes bankrupt or insolvent, that could diminish or eliminate the income we expect from that tenant's leases. If a tenant becomes insolvent or bankrupt, we cannot be sure that we could recover the premises from the tenant promptly or from a trustee or debtor-in-possession in a bankruptcy proceeding relating to the tenant. On the other hand, a bankruptcy court might authorize the tenant to terminate its leases with us. If that happens, our claim against the bankrupt tenant for unpaid future rent would be subject to statutory limitations that might be substantially less than the remaining rent owed under the leases. In addition, any claim we have for unpaid past rent would likely not be paid in full and we would also have to take a charge against earnings for any accrued straight-line rent receivable related to the leases.


The reduced economic activity that initially resulted from the COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted our tenants' businesses, financial condition and liquidity and caused most of our tenants to be unable to meet their obligations to
14


us in full, or at all, or to otherwise seek modifications of such obligations. The ultimate extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the operations of our tenants will depend on future developments, which, as discussed above, are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence.

We are exposed to the credit risk of our customers and counterparties and their failure to meet their financial obligations could adversely affect our business.
Our business is subject to credit risk. There is a risk that a customer or counterparty will fail to meet its obligations when due. Customers and counterparties that owe us money may default on their obligations to us due to bankruptcy, lack of liquidity, operational failure or other reasons. Although we have procedures for reviewing credit exposures to specific customers and counterparties to address present credit concerns, default risk may arise from events or circumstances that are difficult to detect or foresee. Some of our risk management methods depend upon the evaluation of information regarding markets, clients or other matters that are publicly available or otherwise accessible by us. That information may not, in all cases, be accurate, complete, up-to-date or properly evaluated. In addition, concerns about, or a default by, one customer or counterparty could lead to significant liquidity problems, losses or defaults by other customers or counterparties, which in turn could adversely affect us. We experienced customer defaults resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, and we may experience future defaults, the breadth of which will depend upon the scope, severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. We may be materially and adversely affected in the event of a significant default by our customers and counterparties.


We could be adversely affected by a borrower's bankruptcy or default.
If a borrower becomes bankrupt or insolvent or defaults under its loan, that could force us to declare a default and foreclose on any available collateral. As a result, future interest income recognition related to the applicable note receivable could be significantly reduced or eliminated. There is also a risk that the fair value of the collateral, if any, will be less than the carrying value of the note and accrued interest receivable at the time of a foreclosure and we may have to take a charge against earnings. If a property serves as collateral for a note, we may experience costs and delays in recovering the property in foreclosure or finding a substitute operator for the property. If a mortgage we hold is subordinated to senior financing secured by the property, our recovery would be limited to any amount remaining after satisfaction of all amounts due to the holder of the senior financing. In addition, to protect our subordinated investment, we may desire to refinance any senior financing. However, there is no assurance that such refinancing would be available or, if it were to be available, that the terms would be attractive. We experienced borrower defaults resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, and we may experience future defaults, the breadth of which will depend upon the scope, severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. One or more of our borrowers may become bankrupt or insolvent as a result of this reduced economic activity. The ultimate extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the operations of our borrowers will depend on future developments, which, as discussed above, are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence.


TheFrom time to time, the base terms of some of our theatre leases are expiringwill expire and there is no assurance that such leases will be renewed at existing lease terms, or that we can lease any re-claimed space from some of our larger theatres at otherwise economically favorable terms.terms or at all.

TheFrom time to time, the base terms of some of our theatre leases are expiring. For theatres that are not performing as well as they did in the past, thewith our tenants have and may continue to seek rent or other concessions or not renew at all. Furthermore, some tenants of our larger megaplex theatres desire to down-size the theatres they lease to respond to market trends. As a result, thesewill expire. These tenants have and may continue to seek rent or other concessions from us, including requiring us to down-size the theatres or otherwise modify the properties in order to renew their leases. Furthermore, while any such screen reductions would likely create opportunities to reclaim a portion of the former theatres for conversion to other uses, thereThere is no guarantee that we will be able to renew these leases at existing lease terms, at otherwise economically favorable terms or at all. In addition, if we fail to renew these leases, there can re-leasebe no assurances that we will be able to locate substitute tenants for such spaceproperties or that suchenter into leases would be atwith these substitute tenants on economically favorable terms.


Operating risks in the entertainmentexperiential real estate industry may affect the ability of our tenants to perform under their leases.
The ability of our tenants to operate successfully in the entertainmentexperiential real estate industry and remain current on their lease obligations depends on a number of factors, including, with respect to theatres, the availability and popularity of motion pictures, the performance of those pictures in tenants' markets, the allocation of popular pictures to tenants, the release window (represents the time that elapses from the date of a picture's theatrical release to the date it is available on other mediums) and the terms on which the pictures are licensed. Neither we nor our tenants control the operations of motion picture distributors. During the COVID-19 pandemic, motion picture distributors have increasingly relied upon streaming as a method of delivering product. There can be no assurances that motion
15


picture distributors will continue to rely on theatres as the primary means of distributing first-run films, and motion picture distributors have and may in the future consider alternative film delivery methods. The success of “out-of-home” entertainment venues such as megaplex theatres, entertainment retail centers and recreational properties also depends on general economic conditions and the willingness of consumers to spend time and money on out-of-home entertainment.

In addition, some of our theatre tenants have disclosed that they are subject to pending anti-trust investigations byin August 2020, a U.S. District Court granted the U.S. Department of Justice and several states regarding such tenants' alleged anticompetitive practices, including seeking agreements with motion picture distributorsJustice's request to terminate the Paramount Consent Decrees, which prohibit movie studios from owning theatres or utilizing "block booking," a practice whereby movie studios sell multiple films as a package to theatres, in addition to other restrictions. The termination was effective immediately for exclusive rightscertain restrictions, while other restrictions are subject to releases in certain markets.a two-year sunset period. There can be no assurances as to the outcomeeffects of such investigationsthis regulatory action or whether such investigationsthis regulatory action will materially adversely affect suchour theatre tenants' operations and, in turn, their ability to perform under their leases.


Our other experiential customers are exposed to the risk of adverse economic conditions that can affect experiential activities. Eat & play, ski, attraction, experiential lodging, gaming, fitness & wellness and cultural properties are discretionary activities that can entail a relatively high cost of participation and may be adversely affected by an economic slowdown or recession. Economic conditions, including high unemployment and erosion of consumer confidence, may potentially have negative effects on our customers and on their results of operations. The reduced economic activity resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted our tenants' businesses, financial condition and liquidity. The ultimate extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the operations of our tenants will depend on future developments, which, as discussed above, are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence. We cannot predict what impact these uncertainties may have on overall guest visitation, guest spending or other related trends and the ultimate impact it will have on our tenants' and mortgagors' operations and, in turn, their ability to perform under their respective leases or mortgages.

Real estate is a competitive business.
Our business operates in highly competitive environments. We compete with a large number of real estate property ownersinvestors and developers someincluding traded and non-traded public REITS, private equity investors and institutional investment funds. Some of whichthese investors may be willing to accept lower returns on their investments. investments, or have greater financial resources than we do, a greater ability to borrow funds to acquire properties and the ability to accept more risk than we prudently manage. This competition may increase the demand for the types of properties in which we typically invest and, therefore, reduce the number of suitable acquisition opportunities available to us and increase the prices paid for such acquisition properties. This competition will increase if investments in real estate become more attractive relative to other types of investment. Accordingly, competition for the acquisition of real property could materially and adversely affect us.

Principal factors of competition are rent or interest charged, attractiveness of location, the quality of the property and breadth and quality of services provided. If our competitors offer space at rental rates below the rental rates we are currently charging our tenants, we may lose potential tenants, and we may be pressured to reduce our rental rates below those we currently charge in order to retain tenants when our tenants' leases expire. Our success depends upon, among other factors, trends of the national and local economies, financial condition and operating results of current and prospective tenants and customers, availability and cost of capital, construction and renovation costs, taxes, governmental regulations, legislation and population trends.


A single tenant representsFour tenants represent a substantialsignificant portion of our lease revenues.
AMC, theatres, one of the nation's largest movie exhibition companies, is the lessee ofTopgolf, Regal Cinemas Inc. and Cinemark USA, Inc., represent a substantial numbersignificant portion of our megaplex theatre properties. On December 21, 2016, AMC announced that it closed its acquisition of Carmike cinemas upon which AMC became responsible for Carmike's performance under its leases with us.total revenue. For the year ended December 31, 2017,2021, total revenues of approximately $114.4$94.4 million or 19.9% of our total revenues17.8% were derived from rental payments by AMC, (including rental payments for Carmike). AMC Entertainment, Inc. (“AMCE”) has guaranteed AMC's performance under substantially all of their leases. approximately $86.5 million or 16.3% were from TopGolf, approximately $44.6 million or 8.4% were from Regal and approximately $42.2 million or 8% were from Cinemark. The COVID-19 pandemic is severely impacting these tenants' businesses, financial condition and liquidity.

We have diversified and expect to continue to diversify our real estate portfolio by entering into lease transactions or financing arrangements with a number of other leading operatorstenants or by acquiring or seeking to acquire other properties. Nevertheless, our revenues and our continuing ability to service our debt and pay shareholder dividends are currently substantially dependent on AMC's performance under its leases, including the leases acquired in the Carmike acquisition, and AMCE's performance under its guarantee.

We believe AMC occupies a strong position in the industry and we intend to continue acquiring and leasing back or developing new AMC theatres. However, AMC and AMCE are susceptible to the same risks as our other tenants described herein.borrowers. If for any reason AMC, TopGolf, Regal and/or Cinemark failed to perform under itstheir lease obligations including the leases acquired in the Carmike acquisition, and AMCE did not performfor a significant period of time, or under its guarantee,any modified lease obligations, we could be required to reduce or suspend our shareholder dividends or share repurchases and may not have sufficient funds to support operations or service our debt until substitute

tenants are obtained. If that happened, we cannot predict when or whether we could obtain substitute quality tenants on acceptable terms.


Public charter schools are operated pursuant

On December 14, 2021, a judgement was entered by the Ontario Superior Court of Justice against Cineworld Group PLC (Cineworld), Regal’s parent, to charters granted by various state or other regulatory authorities and are dependent upon compliance with the terms of such charters in order to obtain funding from local, state and federal governments. We could be adversely affected by a public charter school's failure to comply with its charter, non-renewal of a charter upon expiration or by its reduction or loss of funding.
Our public charter school properties operate pursuant to charters granted by various state or other regulatory authorities, which are generally shorter than our lease terms, and most of the schools have undergone or expect to undergo compliance audits or reviews by such regulatory authorities. Such audits and reviews examine the financial as well as the academic performance of the school. Adverse audit or review findings could result in non-renewal or revocation of a public charter school's charter, or in some cases, a reductionpay Cineplex, Inc. damages in the amount of state funding, repayment$1.2 billion Canadian dollars ("CAD"). Cineworld has announced its intention to appeal this judgement. We can give no assurance that the ultimate resolution of previously received state funding or other economic sanctions. Our public charter school tenants are also dependent upon funding from local, state and federal governments, which are currently experiencing budgetary constraints, and any reduction or loss of such funding couldthis dispute will not adversely affect a public charter school'simpact Regal’s ability to comply with its charter and/or pay its obligations.

Our master lease agreement with Imagine Schools, Inc. ("Imagine") provides certain contractual protections designed to mitigate risk, such as risk arising from the revocation of a charter of one or more Imagine schools. Subject to our approval and certain other terms and conditions, the master lease agreement also allows Imagine to repurchase from us the public charter school properties that are causing technical defaults. Imagine may, in substitution for such properties, sell to us public charter school properties that would otherwise comply with the lease agreement. However, there is no guarantee that acceptable schools will be available for substitutions or that such substitutions or repurchases will be completed. In addition, while governing authorities may approve substitute operators for failed public charter schools to ensure continuity for students, we cannot predict when or whether applicable governing authorities would approve such substitute operators, nor can we predict whether we could reach lease agreements with such substitute tenants on acceptable terms. In addition, Imagine has in certain previous sales of properties to third parties agreed to pay us the difference between our carrying value and the sales price. Imagine also has a mortgage note obligation to us as a result of sales of certain properties to Imagine. If Imagine or any other operator is unable to provide adequate substitute collateral under its lease with us, and/or is unable to paysatisfy its obligations to us.

Properties we may be required to record an impairment loss or sell schools for less than their net book value.

Our build-to-suit education tenantsdevelop may not achieve sufficient enrollmentoperating results within expected timeframes and therefore the tenant or borrowers may not be able to pay their agreed upon rent or interest, and managed properties may not be able to operate profitably, which could adversely affect our financial results.
A significant portion of our education investments include investments in build-to-suit projects. When construction is completed, for these projects tenants may require some period of time to achieve full enrollment, andtargeted operating results. For properties leased or financed, we may provide themour tenants or borrowers with lease or financing terms that are more favorable to the tenantthem during this timeframe. Tenants and borrowers that fail to achieve sufficient enrollmenttargeted operating results within expected timeframes may be unable to pay their rentobligations pursuant to the agreed upon lease or financing terms or at all. If we are required to restructure lease or financing terms or take other action with respect to the applicable property, our financial results may be impacted by lower lease revenues, recording an impairment or provision for loan loss, writing off rental or interest amounts or otherwise.

During 2017, cash flow of Children’s Learning Adventure USA, LLC (“CLA”) was negatively impacted by challenges brought on by its rapid expansion and related ramp up Additionally, if we have entered into a management agreement to stabilization and by adverse weather events in Texas duringoperate a property we have developed, the third quarter of 2017. During 2017, we participated in negotiations among CLA and other landlords regarding a potential restructuring. Although negotiations are on-going and progress has been made toward a restructuring, investments necessary to accomplish the restructuring haveproject may not yet been secured. Certain subsidiaries of CLA who are tenants under our leases have filed Chapter 11 petitions in bankruptcy seeking the protections of the Bankruptcy Code. We intend to pursue legal remedies to secure possession of these properties as expeditiously as possible. We believe that the time it will take to achieve this outcome gives CLA ample opportunity to negotiate a restructuring which, if successful, would obviate the need to evict CLA from these properties. There can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome of such a restructuring or our pursuit of our legal remedies with respect to these properties.


We are subject to risks relating to provisions included in some of our leases or financing arrangements with operators of our education properties pursuant to which such operators have the option to purchase leased properties or prepay notes relating to financed education properties.
Some of our leases or financing arrangements with education operators include provisions pursuant to which tenant operators may purchase leased properties and mortgagor operators may prepay notes relating to financed education properties, in each case, subject to option exercise payments or prepayment penalties. Some of these tenant or mortgagor operators may be able to obtain alternative financingachieve targeted operating results which may impact our financial results by lowering income or recording an impairment loss.

We have entered into management agreements to operate certain of our properties and we could be adversely affected if such managers do not manage these properties successfully.
To maintain our status as a REIT, we are generally not permitted to directly operate our properties. As a result, from time to time, we enter into management agreements with third-party managers to operate certain properties. In the past, this practice has been most frequent with our experiential lodging properties. However, as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have also begun managing a small number of theatres formerly operated by our tenants and may manage a greater number in the future if defaults result in our taking back additional theatre locations. For managed properties, our ability to direct and control how our properties are operated is less than if we were able to manage these properties directly. Under the terms of our management agreements, our participation in operating decisions relating to these properties is generally limited to certain matters. We do not supervise any of these managers or their personnel on more economically favorable terms, in which case, such operators may choose to exercise their purchase option or prepayment right. If such operators exercise their purchase options or prepayment rights, wea day-to-day basis. We cannot provide any assurances that we would be able to redeploy the capital associated with thesemanagers will manage our properties in other investmentsa manner that is consistent with their respective obligations under the applicable management agreement or our obligations under any franchise agreements. We could be materially and adversely affected if any of our managers fail to effectively manage revenues and expenses, provide quality services and amenities, or otherwise fail to manage our properties in our best interests, and we may be financially responsible for the actions and inactions of the managers. In certain situations, we may terminate the management agreement. However, we can provide no assurances that we could identify a replacement manager, or that such investments would provide comparable returns, whichthe replacement manager will manage our property successfully. A failure by our third-party managers to successfully manage our properties could reduce our earnings going forward. Additionally, it can be difficultlead to forecast when tenants will exercise their purchase option or borrowers will prepay, which can create volatilityan increase in our earnings.operating expenses or decrease in our revenue, or both.


Our indebtedness may affect our ability to operate our business and may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
We have a significant amount of indebtedness.indebtedness. As of December 31, 2017,2021, we had total debt outstanding of approximately $3.1 billion.$2.8 billion. Our indebtedness could have important consequences, such as:


limiting our ability to obtain additional financing to fund our working capital needs, acquisitions, capital expenditures or other debt service requirements or for other purposes;

limiting our ability to use operating cash flow in other areas of our business because we must dedicate a substantial portion of these funds to service debt;

limiting our ability to compete with other companies who are not as highly leveraged, as we may be less capable of responding to adverse economic and industry conditions;

restricting us from making strategic acquisitions, developing properties or exploitingpursuing business opportunities;

restricting the way in which we conduct our business because of financial and operating covenants in the agreements governing our existing and future indebtedness;

17


exposing us to potential events of default (if not cured or waived) under financial and operating covenants contained in our debt instruments that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and operating results;

increasing our vulnerability to a downturn in general economic conditions or in pricing of our investments;

negatively impacting our credit ratings; and

limiting our ability to react to changing market conditions in our industry and in our customers’ industries.


In addition to our debt service obligations, our operations require substantial investments on a continuing basis. Our ability to make scheduled debt payments, to refinance our obligations with respect to our indebtedness and to fund capital and non-capital expenditures necessary to meet our remaining commitments on existing projects and maintain the condition of our assets, as well as to provide capacity for the growth of our business, depends on our financial and operating performance, which, in turn, is subject to prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, competitive, legal and other factors.


Subject to the restrictions in our unsecured revolving credit facility, our unsecured term loan facility and the debt instruments governing our existing senior notes, we may incur significant additional indebtedness, including additional secured indebtedness. Although the terms of our unsecured revolving credit facility our unsecured term loan facility and the debt instruments governing our existing senior notes contain restrictions on the incurrence of additional

indebtedness, these restrictions are subject to a number of qualifications and exceptions, and additional indebtedness incurred in compliance with these restrictions could be significant. If new debt is added to our current debt levels, the risks described above could increase.


There are risks inherent in having indebtedness and the use ofusing such indebtedness to fund acquisitions.
We currently use debt to fund portions of our operations and acquisitions. In a rising interest rate environment, the cost of our existing variable rate debt and any new debt will increase. We have used leverage to acquire properties and expect to continue to do so in the future. Although the use of leverage is common in the real estate industry, our use of debt exposes us to some risks. If a significant number of our tenants fail to make their lease payments for a significant period of time, the risk of which has been heightened as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we do not have sufficient cash to pay principal and interest on the debt, we could default on our debt obligations. A small amount of our debt financing is secured by mortgages on our properties and we may enter into additional secured mortgage financing in the future. If we fail to meet our mortgage payments, the lenders could declare a default and foreclose on those properties.


Most of our debt instruments contain balloon payments which may adversely impact our financial performance and our ability to pay dividends.
Most of our financing arrangements require us to make a lump-sum or "balloon" payment at maturity. There can be no assurance that we will be able to refinance such debt on favorable terms or at all. To the extent we cannot refinance such debt on favorable terms or at all, we may be forced to dispose of properties on disadvantageous terms or pay higher interest rates, either of which would have an adverse impact on our financial performance and ability to pay dividends to our shareholders.


We must obtain new financing in order to grow.
As a REIT, we are required to distribute at least 90% of our taxable net income to shareholders in the form of dividends. Other than deciding to make these dividends in our common shares, we are limited in our ability to use internal capital to acquire properties and must continually raise new capital in order to continue to grow and diversify our investment portfolio. Our ability to raise new capital depends in part on factors beyond our control, including conditions in equity and credit markets, conditions in the industries in which our tenants are engaged and the performance of real estate investment trusts generally.generally, all of which have been negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We continually consider and evaluate a variety of potential transactions to raise additional capital, but we cannot assure that attractive alternatives will always be available to us, nor that our share price will increase or remain at a level that will permit us to continue to raise equity capital publicly or privately.

Covenantsprivately, particularly in our debt instruments could adversely affect our financial condition and our acquisitions and development activities.
Some of our properties are subject to mortgages that contain customary covenants such as those that limit our ability, without the prior consentlight of the lender, to further mortgageeffects of the applicable property or to discontinue insurance coverage. Our unsecured revolving credit facility, term loan facility, senior notes and other loans that we may obtain in the future contain certain cross-default provisions as well as customary restrictions, requirements and other limitations on our ability to incur indebtedness, including covenants involving our maximum total debt to total asset value; maximum permitted investments; minimum tangible net worth; maximum secured debt to total asset value; maximum unsecured debt to eligible unencumbered properties; minimum unsecured interest coverage; and minimum fixed charge coverage. Our ability to borrow under our unsecured revolving credit facility and our term loan facility is also subject to compliance with certain other covenants. We also have senior notes issued in a private placement transaction that are subject to certain covenants. In addition, failure to comply with our covenants could cause a default under the applicable debt instrument, and we may then be required to repay such debt with capital from other sources. Under those circumstances, other sources of capital may not be available to us, or be available only on unattractive terms. Additionally, our ability to satisfy current or prospective lenders' insurance requirements may be adversely affected if lenders generally insist upon greater insurance coverage against acts of terrorism than is available to us in the marketplace or on commercially reasonable terms.continuing COVID-19 pandemic.


We rely on debt financing, including borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility, term loan facility, issuances of debt securities and debt secured by individual properties, to finance our acquisition and development activities and for working capital. If we are unable to obtain financing from these or other sources, or to refinance existing indebtedness upon maturity, our financial condition and results of operations would likely be adversely affected.

Our real estate investments are concentrated in entertainment, recreation and educationexperiential real estate properties and a significant portion of those investments are in megaplex theatre properties, making us more vulnerable economically than if our investments were more diversified.
We acquire, develop or finance entertainment, recreation and educationexperiential real estate properties. A significant portion of our investments are in megaplex theatre properties. Although we are subject to the general risks inherent in concentrating investments in real estate, the risks resulting from a lack of diversification become even greater as a result of investing primarily in entertainment, recreation and educationexperiential real estate properties. These risks are further heightened by the fact that a significant portion of our investments are in megaplex theatre properties. Although a downturn in the real estate industry could significantly adversely affect the value of our properties, a downturn in the entertainment, recreation and education industriesexperiential real estate industry could compound this adverse effect. These adverse effects could be more pronounced than if we diversified our investments to a greater degree outside of entertainment, recreation and educationexperiential real estate properties or, more particularly, outside of megaplex theatre properties. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted and may continue to impact experiential real estate properties, particularly theatre operations, given that such properties rely on social interaction and discretionary consumer spending and have been subject to state and local governmental restrictions.


If we fail to qualify as a REIT, we would be taxed as a corporation, which would substantially reduce funds available for payment of dividends to our shareholders.
If we fail to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we will be taxed as a corporation. We are organized to and believe we qualify as a REIT, and intend to operate in a manner that will allow us to continue to qualify as a REIT. However, we cannot provide any assurance that we have always qualified and will remain qualified in the future. This is because qualification as a REIT involves the application of highly technical and complex provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Internal Revenue Code"), on which there are only limited judicial and administrative interpretations, and depends on facts and circumstances not entirely within our control.control, including requirements relating to the sources of our gross income. Rents received or accrued by us from our tenants may not be treated as qualifying income for purposes of these requirements if the leases are not respected as true leases or qualified financing arrangements for U.S. federal income tax purposes and instead are treated as service contracts, joint ventures or some other type of arrangement. If some or all of our leases are not respected as true leases or qualified financing arrangements for U.S. federal income tax purposes and are not otherwise treated as generating qualifying REIT income, we may fail to qualify to be taxed as a REIT. Furthermore, our qualification as a REIT will depend on our satisfaction of certain asset, income, organizational, distribution, stockholder ownership and other requirements on a continuing basis. Our ability to satisfy the asset tests depends upon our analysis of the characterization and fair market values of our assets, some of which are not susceptible to a precise determination, and for which we may not obtain independent appraisals. In addition, future legislation, new regulations, administrative interpretations or court decisions may significantly change the tax laws, the application of the tax laws to our qualification as a REIT or the U.S. federal income tax consequences of that qualification.


If we were to fail to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year (including any prior taxable year for which the statute of limitations remains open), we would face tax consequences that could substantially reduce the funds available for the service of our debt and payment of dividends:


we would not be allowed a deduction for dividends paid to shareholders in computing our taxable income and would be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates;

we could be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax and possibly increased state and local taxes;

unless we are entitled to relief under statutory provisions, we could not elect to be treated as a REIT for four taxable years following the year in which we were disqualified; and

we could be subject to tax penalties and interest.


In addition, if we fail to qualify as a REIT, we will no longer be required to pay dividends. As a result of these factors, our failure to qualify as a REIT could adversely affect the market price for our shares.


19


Even if we remain qualified for taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, we may face other tax liabilities that reduce our funds available for payment of dividends to our shareholders or the repurchase of shares.
Even if we remain qualified for taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, we may be subject to federal, state and local taxes on our income and assets, including taxes on any undistributed income, excise taxes, state or local income, property and transfer taxes, and other taxes. Also, some jurisdictions may in the future limit or eliminate favorable income tax deductions, including the dividends paid deduction, which could increase our income tax expense. In addition, in order to meet the requirements for qualification and taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code, prevent the recognition of particular types of non-cash income, or avert the imposition of a 100% tax that applies to specified gains derived by a REIT from dealer property or inventory, we may hold or dispose of some of our assets and conduct some of our operations through our TRSs or other subsidiary corporations that will be subject to corporate level income tax at regular rates. In addition, while we intend that our transactions with our TRSs will be conducted on arm's length bases, we may be subject to a 100% excise tax on a transaction that the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") or a court determines was not conducted at arm's length. Any of these taxes would decrease cash available for distribution to our shareholders or the repurchase of shares under our share repurchase program.

Distribution requirements imposed by law limit our flexibility.
To maintain our status as a REIT for federal income tax purposes, we are generally required to distribute to our shareholders at least 90% of our taxable income for that calendar year. Our taxable income is determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid and by excluding net capital gains. To the extent that we satisfy the distribution requirement but distribute less than 100% of our taxable income, we will be subject to federal corporate income tax on our undistributed income. In addition, we will incur a 4% nondeductible excise tax on the amount, if any, by which our distributions in any year are less than the sum of (i) 85% of our ordinary income for that year, (ii) 95% of our capital gain net income for that year and (iii) 100% of our undistributed taxable income from prior years. We intend to continue to make distributions to our shareholders to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and to reduce exposure to federal income and nondeductible excise taxes. Differences in timing between the receipt of income and the payment of expenses in determining our taxable income and the effect of required debt amortization payments could require us to borrow funds on a short-term basis in order to meet the distribution requirements that are necessary to achieve the tax benefits associated with qualifying as a REIT.

If arrangements involving our TRSs fail to comply as intended with the REIT qualification and taxation rules, we may fail to qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code or be subject to significant penalty taxes.
We lease some of our experiential lodging properties to our TRSs pursuant to arrangements that, under the Internal Revenue Code, are intended to qualify the rents we receive from our TRSs as income that satisfies the REIT gross income tests. We also intend that our transactions with our TRSs be conducted on arm's length bases so that we and our TRSs will not be subject to penalty taxes under the Internal Revenue Code applicable to mispriced transactions. While relief provisions can sometimes excuse REIT gross income test failures, significant penalty taxes may still be imposed.

For our TRS arrangements to comply as intended with the REIT qualification and taxation rules under the Internal Revenue Code, a number of requirements must be satisfied, including:

our TRSs may not directly or indirectly operate or manage a lodging facility, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code;
the leases to our TRSs must be respected as true leases for federal income tax purposes and not as service contracts, partnerships, joint ventures, financings or other types of arrangements;
the leased properties must constitute qualified lodging facilities (including customary amenities and facilities) under the Internal Revenue Code;
our leased properties must be managed and operated on behalf of the TRSs by independent contractors who are less than 35% affiliated with us and who are actively engaged (or have affiliates so engaged) in the trade or business of managing and operating qualified lodging facilities for persons unrelated to us; and
the rental and other terms of the leases must be arm's length.
20



We cannot be sure that the IRS or a court will agree with our assessment that our TRS arrangements comply as intended with REIT qualification and taxation rules. If arrangements involving our TRSs fail to comply as we intended, we may fail to qualify for taxation as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code or be subject to significant penalty taxes.

We may depend on distributions from our direct and indirect subsidiaries to service our debt, and pay dividends to our shareholders.shareholders and repurchase shares. The creditors of these subsidiaries, and our direct creditors, are entitled to amounts payable to them before we pay any dividends to our shareholders.shareholders or repurchase shares.
Substantially all of our assets are held through our subsidiaries. We depend on these subsidiaries for substantially all of our cash flow.flow from operations. The creditors of each of our direct and indirect subsidiaries are entitled to payment of that subsidiary's obligations to them, when due and payable, before distributions may be made by that subsidiary to us. In addition, our creditors, whether secured or unsecured, are entitled to amounts payable to them before we may pay any dividends to our shareholders.shareholders or repurchase shares under our share repurchase program. Thus, our ability to service our debt obligations, and pay dividends to holders of our common and preferred shares and repurchase shares depends on our subsidiaries' ability first to satisfy their obligations to their creditors and then to pay distributions to us and our ability to satisfy our obligations to our direct creditors. Our subsidiaries are separate and

distinct legal entities and have no obligations, other than limited guaranties of certain of our debt, to make funds available to us.


Our development financing arrangements expose us to funding and completion risks.
Our ability to meet our construction financing obligations which we have undertaken or may enter into in the future depends on our ability to obtain equity or debt financing in the required amounts. There is no assurance we can obtain this financing or that the financing rates available will ensure a spread between our cost of capital and the rent or interest payable to us under the related leases or mortgage notes receivable. As a result, we could fail to meet our construction financing obligations or decide to cease such funding which, in turn, could result in failed projects and penalties, each of which could have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and business.


We have a limited number of employees and loss of personnel could harm our operations and adversely affect the value of our shares.
We had 6353 full-time employees as of December 31, 20172021 and, therefore, the impact we may feel from the loss of an employee may be greater than the impact such a loss would have on a larger organization. We are dependent on the efforts of the following individuals: Gregory K. Silvers, our President and Chief Executive Officer; Mark A. Peterson, our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer; Morgan G. Earnest,Craig L. Evans, our Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary; Greg Zimmerman, our Executive Vice President and Chief Investment Officer; Tonya L. Mater, our Senior Vice President and Chief Investment Officer; Craig L. Evans, our Senior Vice President, General CounselAccounting Officer and Secretary; Michael L. Hirons,Elizabeth Grace, our Senior Vice President - Strategy & Asset Management;Human Resources and Tonya L. Mater, our Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer.Administration. While we believe that we could find replacements for our personnel, the loss of their services could harm our operations and adversely affect the value of our shares.


Security breachesWe are subject to risks associated with the employment of personnel by managers of certain of our properties.
Managers of certain of our properties are responsible for hiring and maintaining the labor force at each of these properties. Although we do not directly employ or manage employees at these properties, we are subject to many of the costs and risks associated with such labor force, including but not limited to risks associated with that certain union contract binding the manager of our Kartrite Resort and Indoor Waterpark. From time to time, the operations of our properties that are managed by third parties may be disrupted as a result of strikes, lockouts, public demonstrations or other negative actions and publicity. We may also incur increased legal costs and indirect labor costs as a result of contract disputes and other events. The resolution of labor disputes or renegotiated labor contracts could lead to increased labor costs, either by increases in wages or benefits or by changes in work rules.

We may in the future have greater dependence upon the gaming industry and may be susceptible to the risks associated with it, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects.
As a landlord of gaming facilities or secured creditor to gaming operators, we may be impacted by the risks associated with the gaming industry. Therefore, so long as we make investments in gaming-related assets, our
21


success is dependent on the gaming industry, which could be adversely affected by economic conditions in general, changes in consumer trends and preferences and other factors over which we and our tenants have no control, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. A component of the rent under our gaming facility lease agreements may be based, over time, on the performance of the gaming facilities operated by our tenants on our properties and any decline in the operating results of our gaming tenants could be material and adverse to our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects.

The gaming industry is characterized by a high degree of competition among a large number of participants, including riverboat casinos, dockside casinos, land-based casinos, video lottery, sweepstakes and poker machines not located in casinos, Native American gaming, internet lotteries and other internet wagering gaming services and, in a broader sense, gaming operators face competition from all manner of leisure and entertainment activities. Gaming competition is intense in most of the markets where our facilities are located. Recently, there has been additional significant competition in the gaming industry as a result of the upgrading or expansion of facilities by existing market participants, the entrance of new gaming participants into a market, internet gaming and legislative changes. As competing properties and new markets are opened, we may be negatively impacted. Additionally, decreases in discretionary consumer spending brought about by weakened general economic conditions such as, but not limited to, lackluster recoveries from recessions, high unemployment levels, higher income taxes, low levels of consumer confidence, weakness in the housing market, cultural and demographic changes and increased stock market volatility may negatively impact our revenues and operating cash flows.

We will face extensive regulation from gaming and other regulatory authorities with respect to our gaming properties.
The ownership, operation, and management of gaming facilities are subject to pervasive regulation. These gaming regulations impact our gaming tenants and persons associated with our gaming facilities, which in many jurisdictions include us as the landlord and owner of the real estate. Certain gaming authorities in the jurisdictions in which we hold properties may require us and/or our affiliates to maintain a license as a key business entity or supplier because of our status as landlord. Gaming authorities also retain great discretion to require us to be found suitable as a landlord, and certain of our shareholders, officers and trustees may be required to be found suitable as well.

In many jurisdictions, gaming laws can require certain of our shareholders to file an application, be investigated, and qualify or have his, her or its suitability determined by gaming authorities. Gaming authorities have very broad discretion in determining whether an applicant should be deemed suitable. Subject to certain administrative proceeding requirements, the gaming regulators have the authority to deny any application or limit, condition, restrict, revoke or suspend any license, registration, finding of suitability or approval, or fine any person licensed, registered or found suitable or approved, for any cause deemed reasonable by the gaming authorities.

Gaming authorities may conduct investigations into the conduct or associations of our trustees, officers, key employees or investors to ensure compliance with applicable standards. If we are required to be found suitable and are found suitable as a landlord, we will be registered as a public company with the gaming authorities and will be subject to disciplinary action if, after we receive notice that a person is unsuitable to be a shareholder or to have any other relationship with us, we:

pay that person any distribution or interest upon any of our voting securities;
allow that person to exercise, directly or indirectly, any voting right conferred through securities held by that person;
pay remuneration in any form to that person for services rendered or otherwise; or
fail to pursue all lawful efforts to require such unsuitable person to relinquish his or her voting securities, including, if necessary, the immediate purchase of the voting securities for cash at fair market value.

Many jurisdictions also require any person who acquires beneficial ownership of more than a certain percentage of voting securities of a gaming company and, in some jurisdictions, non-voting securities, typically 5% of a publicly-traded company, to report the acquisition to gaming authorities, and gaming authorities may require such holders to
22


apply for qualification, licensure or a finding of suitability, subject to limited exceptions for "institutional investors" that hold a company's voting securities for passive investment purposes only.

Required regulatory approvals can delay or prohibit transfers of our gaming properties, which could result in periods in which we are unable to receive rent for such properties.
Our tenant is (and any future tenants of our gaming properties will be) required to be licensed under applicable law in order to operate any of our properties that are gaming facilities. If our gaming facility lease agreements, or any future lease agreement we enter into, are terminated (which could be required by a regulatory agency) or expire, any new tenant must be licensed and receive other regulatory approvals to operate our properties as gaming facilities. Any delay in, or inability of, the new tenant to receive required licenses and other regulatory approvals from the applicable state and county government agencies may prolong the period during which we are unable to collect the applicable rent. Further, in the event that our gaming facility lease agreements or future lease agreements are terminated or expire and a new tenant is not licensed or fails to receive other regulatory approvals, the properties may not be operated as gaming facilities and we will not be able to collect the applicable rent. Moreover, we may be unable to transfer or sell the affected properties as gaming facilities, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and prospects.

We face risks associated with security breaches through cyber-attacks, cyber-intrusions or otherwise, as well as other significant disruptions could compromiseof our information technology (IT) networks and expose usrelated systems.
We face risks associated with security breaches, whether through cyber-attacks or cyber-intrusions over the internet, malware, computer viruses, attachments to liability, which would causee-mails, persons inside our organization or persons with access to systems inside our organization, and other significant disruptions of our IT networks and related systems. The risk of a security breach or disruption, particularly through cyber-attack or cyber-intrusion, including by computer hackers, foreign governments and cyber terrorists, has generally increased as the number, intensity and sophistication of attempted attacks and intrusions from around the world have increased. Our IT networks and related systems are essential to the operation of our business and our ability to perform day-to-day operations, including the increase in remote access and operations due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Although we make efforts to maintain the security and integrity of these types of IT networks and related systems, and we have implemented various measures to manage the risk of a security breach or disruption, there can be no assurance that our security efforts and measures will be effective or that attempted security breaches or disruptions would not be successful or damaging. A security breach or other significant disruption involving our IT networks and related systems could disrupt the proper functioning of our networks and systems; result in misstated financial reports, violations of loan covenants and/or missed reporting deadlines; result in our inability to monitor our compliance with the rules and regulations regarding our qualification as a REIT; result in the unauthorized access to, and destruction, loss, theft, misappropriation or release of proprietary, confidential, sensitive or otherwise valuable information of ours or others, which could be used to compete against us or for disruptive, destructive or otherwise harmful purposes and outcomes; require significant management attention and resources to remedy any damages that result; subject us to claims for breach of contract, damages, credits, penalties or termination of certain agreements; or damage our reputation among our tenants and investors generally. Any or all of the foregoing could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and ability to suffer.make distributions with respect to, and the market price of, our common stock. Our service providers, and our tenants, and their business partners are exposed to similar risks.
In the ordinary coursemanagers of our business, we collectproperties and store sensitive data, including our proprietary business information and that of our tenants and clients and personally identifiable information of our employees, in our facility and on our network. Despite our security measures, our information technology and infrastructure may be vulnerable to attacks by hackers or breached due to employee error, malfeasance or other disruptions. Any such breach could compromise our network and the information stored there could be accessed, publicly disclosed, lost or stolen. Any such access, disclosure or other loss of information could result in legal claims or proceedings, disrupt our operations, damage our reputation, and cause a loss of confidence, which could adversely affect our business. Our service providers and our tenantscustomers and their business partners are exposed to similar risks and the occurrence of a security breach or other disruption with respect to their information technology and infrastructure could, in turn, have a material adverse impact on our results of operations and business.


Changes in accounting standards issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") or other standard-setting bodies may adversely affect our financial statements.business.
Our financial statements are subject to the application of U.S. GAAP, which is periodically revised and/or expanded. From time to time, we are required to adopt new or revised accounting standards issued by recognized authoritative bodies, including the FASB and the SEC. It is possible that future accounting standards we are required to adopt such as the amended guidance for revenue recognition and leases, may require changes to the current accounting treatment that we apply to our consolidated financial statements and may require us to make significant changes to our systems. Such changesChanges in accounting standards could result in a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Risks That Apply to Our Real Estate Business


Real estate income and the value of real estate investments fluctuate due to various factors.
The value of real estate fluctuates depending on conditions in the general economy and the real estate business. These conditions may also limit our revenues and available cash. The rents, interest and interestother payments we receive and the occupancy levels at our properties may decline as a result of adverse changes in any of the factors that affect the value of our real estate. If our revenues decline, we generally would expect to have less cash available to pay our indebtedness, and distribute to our shareholders.shareholders and effect share repurchases. In addition, some of our unreimbursed costs of owning real estate may not decline when the related rents decline.


The factors that affect the value of our real estate include, among other things:


international, national, regional and local economic conditions;

consequences of any armed conflict involving, or terrorist attack against, the United States or Canada;

the threat of domestic terrorism or pandemic or other illness outbreaks (such as COVID-19 or variants thereof), which could cause customersconsumers to avoid congregate settings;
our ability or the ability of our tenants to avoid public places where large crowds are in attendance, such as megaplex theatres or recreational properties operated by our tenants;

our abilitymanagers to secure adequate insurance;

natural disasters, such as earthquakes, hurricanes and floods, which could exceed the aggregate limits of insurance coverage;

local conditions such as an oversupply of space or lodging properties or a reduction in demand for real estate in the area;

competition from other available space;space or, in the case of our experiential lodging properties, competition from other lodging properties or alternative lodging options in our markets;

whether tenants and users such as customers of our tenants consider a property attractive;

the financial condition of our tenants, mortgagors and managers, including the extent of tenant bankruptcies or defaults;

higher levels of inflation;
whether we are able to pass some or all of any increased operating costs through to tenants;tenants or other customers;

how well we manage our properties or how well the managers of properties manage those properties;

in the case of our experiential lodging properties, dependence on demand from business and leisure travelers, which may fluctuate and be seasonal;
fluctuations in interest rates;

changes in real estate taxes and other expenses;

changes in market rental rates;

the timing and costs associated with property improvements and rentals;

changes in taxation or zoning laws;

government regulation;

availability of financing on acceptable terms or at all;

potential liability under environmental or other laws or regulations; and

general competitive factors.


The rents, interest and interestother payments we receive and the occupancy levels at our properties may decline as a result of adverse changes in any of these factors. If our revenues decline, we generally would expect to have less cash available to pay our indebtedness and distribute to our shareholders. In addition, some of our unreimbursed costs of owning real estate may not decline when the related rents decline.


There are risks associated with owning and leasing real estate.
Although our lease terms in most cases, obligate the tenants to bear substantially all of the costs of operating the properties and our managers to manage such costs, investing in real estate involves a number of risks, including:


the risk that tenants will not perform under their leases or that managers will not perform under their management agreements, reducing our income from thesuch leases or requiring us to assume the cost of performing obligations (such as taxes, insurance and maintenance) that are the tenant's responsibilityproperties under the lease;such management;

24


we may not always be able to lease properties at favorable rates or certain tenants may require significant capital expenditures by us to conform existing properties to their requirements;

we may not always be able to sell a property when we desire to do so at a favorable price; and

changes in tax, zoning or other laws could make properties less attractive or less profitable.


If a tenant fails to perform on its lease covenants or a manager fails to perform on its management covenants, that would not excuse us from meeting any debt obligation secured by the property and could require us to fund reserves in favor of our lenders, thereby reducing funds available for payment of dividends. We cannot be assured that tenants or managers will elect to renew their leases or management agreements when the terms expire. If a tenant or manager does not renew its lease or agreement or if a tenant or a manager defaults on its lease or management obligations, there is no assurance we could obtain a substitute tenant or manager on acceptable terms. If we cannot obtain another quality tenant or manager, we may be required to modify the property for a different use, which may involve a significant capital expenditure and a delay in re-leasing the property.property or obtaining a new manager. In addition, tenants or managers sought concessions or other modifications to existing leases and management agreements as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.


Some potential losses are not covered by insurance.
Our leases with tenants and agreements with managers of our properties require the tenants and managers to carry comprehensive liability, casualty, workers' compensation, extended coverage and rental loss insurance on our properties.properties, as applicable. We believe the required coverage is of the type, and amount, customarily obtained by an owner of similar properties. We believe all of our properties are adequately insured. However, we are exposed to risks that the insurance coverage levels required under our leases with tenants and agreements with managers of our properties may be inadequate, and these risks may be increased as we expand our portfolio into experiential properties that may present more risk of loss as compared to properties in our existing portfolio. In addition, there are some types of losses, such as pandemics, catastrophic acts of nature, acts of war or riots, for which we, or our tenants or managers of our properties cannot obtain insurance at an acceptable cost.cost or at all. If there is an uninsured loss or a loss in excess of insurance limits, we could lose both the revenues generated by the affected property and the capital we have invested in the property. We would, however, remain obligated to repay any mortgage indebtedness or other obligations related to the property. In addition, the cost of insurance protection against terrorist acts has risen dramatically over the years. There can be no assurance our tenants or managers of our properties will be able to obtain terrorism insurance coverage, as applicable, or that any coverage they do obtain will adequately protect our properties against loss from terrorist attack.


Joint ventures may limit flexibility with jointly owned investments.
We may continue to acquire or develop properties in joint ventures with third parties when those transactions appear desirable. We would not own the entire interest in any property acquired by a joint venture. Major decisions regarding a joint venture property may require the consent of our partner. If we have a dispute with a joint venture partner, we may feel it necessary or become obligated to acquire the partner's interest in the venture. However, we cannot ensure that the price we would have to pay or the timing of the acquisition would be favorable to us. If we own less thanare invested in a 50% interest in any joint venture or if the venturein which control over significant decisions is jointly controlled,shared, the assets and financial results of the joint venture may not be reportable by us on a consolidated basis. To the extent we have commitments to, or on behalf of, or are dependent on, any such “off-balance sheet”"off-balance sheet" arrangements, or if those arrangements or their properties or leases are subject to material contingencies, our liquidity, financial condition and operating results could be adversely affected by those commitments or off-balance sheet arrangements.


Our multi-tenant properties expose us to additional risks.
Our entertainment retail centersdistricts in Colorado, New York, California, and Ontario, Canada, and similar properties we may seek to acquire or develop in the future, involve risks not typically encountered in the purchase and lease-back of real estate properties which are operated by a single tenant. The ownership or development of multi-tenant retail centers could expose us to the risk that a sufficient number of suitable tenants may not be found to enable the centers to operate profitably and provide a return to us. This risk may be compounded by the failure of existing tenants to satisfy their obligations due to various factors, including economic downturns or inflation. In addition, the current economic crisis.COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted our retail tenants' businesses, financial condition and liquidity, which resulted in most of these tenants failing to satisfy their obligations to us or otherwise seeking modifications to their
25


lease arrangements. These risks, in turn, could cause a material adverse impact to our results of operations and business.



Retail centers are also subject to tenant turnover and fluctuations in occupancy rates, which could affect our operating results. Multi-tenant retail centers also expose us to the risk of potential “CAM"CAM slippage," which may occur when the actual cost of taxes, insurance and maintenance at the property exceeds the CAM fees paid by tenants.


Failure to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act and other laws could result in substantial costs.
Most of our properties must comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”).ADA. The ADA requires that public accommodations reasonably accommodate individuals with disabilities and that new construction or alterations be made to commercial facilities to conform to accessibility guidelines. Failure to comply with the ADA can result in injunctions, fines, damage awards to private parties and additional capital expenditures to remedy noncompliance. Our leases with tenants and agreements with managers of our properties require the tenantsthem to comply with the ADA.


Our properties are also subject to various other federal, state and local regulatory requirements. We do not know whether existing requirements will change or whether compliance with future requirements will involve significant unanticipated expenditures. Although these expenditures would be the responsibility of our tenants in most cases and for our managers to oversee at our properties, if these tenants or managers fail to perform these obligations, we may be required to do so.


Potential liability for environmental contamination could result in substantial costs.
Under federal, state and local environmental laws, we may be required to investigate and clean up any release of hazardous or toxic substances or petroleum products at our properties, regardless of our knowledge or actual responsibility, simply because of our current or past ownership of the real estate. If unidentified environmental problems arise, we may have to make substantial payments, which could adversely affect our cash flow and our ability to service our debt and pay dividends to our shareholders. This is because:


as owner, we may have to pay for property damage and for investigation and clean-up costs incurred in connection with the contamination;

the law may impose clean-up responsibility and liability regardless of whether the owner or operator knew of or caused the contamination;

even if more than one person is responsible for the contamination, each person who shares legal liability under environmental laws may be held responsible for all of the clean-up costs; and

governmental entities and third parties may sue the owner or operator of a contaminated site for damages and costs.


These costs could be substantial and in extreme cases could exceed the value of the contaminated property. The presence of hazardous substances or petroleum products or the failure to properly remediate contamination may adversely affect our ability to borrow against, sell or lease an affected property. In addition, some environmental laws create liens on contaminated sites in favor of the government for damages and costs it incurs in connection with a contamination. Most of our loan agreements require the Company or a subsidiary to indemnify the lender against environmental liabilities. Our leases with tenants and agreements with managers of our properties require the tenantsthem to operate the properties in compliance with environmental laws and to indemnify us against environmental liability arising from the operation of the properties. We believe all of our properties are in material compliance with environmental laws. However, we could be subject to strict liability under environmental laws because we own the properties. There is also a risk that tenants may not satisfy their environmental compliance and indemnification obligations under the leases.leases or other agreements. Any of these events could substantially increase our cost of operations, require us to fund environmental indemnities in favor of our lenders, limit the amount we could borrow under our unsecured revolving credit facility and term loan facility and reduce our ability to service our debt and pay dividends to shareholders.


26


Real estate investments are relatively illiquid.
We have previously disclosed our intent to undertake certain asset dispositions. In addition, we may desire to sell other properties in the future because of changes in market conditions, poor tenant performance or default of any mortgage we hold, or to avail ourselves of other opportunities. We may also be required to sell a property in the future to meet debt obligations or avoid a default. Specialty real estate projects such as we have cannot always be sold quickly, and

we cannot assure you that we could always obtain a favorable price. In addition, the Internal Revenue Code limits our ability to sell our properties. We may be required to invest in the restoration or modification of a property before we can sell it. The inability to respond promptly to changes in the performance of our property portfolio could adversely affect our financial condition and ability to service our debt, and pay dividends to our shareholders.shareholders and effect share repurchases.


There are risks in owning assets outside the United States.
Our properties in Canada are subject to the risks normally associated with international operations. The rentals under our Canadian leases are payable in Canadian dollars,CAD, which could expose us to losses resulting from fluctuations in exchange rates to the extent we have not hedged our position. Canadian real estate and tax laws are complex and subject to change, and we cannot assure you we will always be in compliance with those laws or that compliance will not expose us to additional expense. We may also be subject to fluctuations in Canadian real estate values or markets or the Canadian economy as a whole, which may adversely affect our Canadian investments.


Additionally, we have made investments in projects located in China and may enter other international markets, which may have similar risks as described above as well as unique risks associated with a specific country.


There are risks in owning or financing properties for which the tenant's, mortgagor's, or our operations may be impacted by weather conditions, climate change and climate change.natural disasters.
We have acquired and financed ski properties and expect to do so in the future. The operators of these properties, our tenants or mortgagors, are dependent upon the operations of the properties to pay their rents and service their loans. The ski property operator's ability to attract visitors is influenced by weather conditions and climate change in general, each of which may impact the amount of snowfall during the ski season. Adverse weather conditions may discourage visitors from participating in outdoor activities. In addition, unseasonably warm weather may result in inadequate natural snowfall, which increases the cost of snowmaking, and could render snowmaking wholly or partially ineffective in maintaining quality skiing conditions and attracting visitors. Excessive natural snowfall may materially increase the costs incurred for grooming trails and may also make it difficult for visitors to obtain access to the ski property.properties. We also own and finance attractions (including waterparks) which would also be subject to risks relating to weather conditions such as in the case of waterparks and amusement parks, excessive rainfall or unseasonable temperatures. Prolonged periods of adverse weather conditions, or the occurrence of such conditions during peak visitation periods, could have a material adverse effect on the operator's financial results and could impair the ability of the operator to make rental or other payments or service our loans.


A severe natural disaster, such as a forest fire, may interrupt the operations of an operator, damage our properties, reduce the number of guests who visit the resorts in affected areas and negatively impact an operator's revenue and profitability. Damage to our properties could take a long time to repair and there is no guarantee that we would have adequate insurance to cover the costs of repair and recoup lost profits. Furthermore, such a disaster may interrupt or impede access to our affected properties or require evacuations and may cause visits to our affected properties to decrease for an indefinite period. The ability of our operators to attract visitors to our experiential lodging properties is also influenced by the aesthetics and natural beauty of the outdoor environment where these resorts are located. A severe forest fire or other severe impacts from naturally occurring events could negatively impact the natural beauty of our resort properties and have a long-term negative impact on an operator's overall guest visitation as it could take several years for the environment to recover.

We face risks associated with the development, redevelopment and expansion of properties and the acquisition of other real estate related companies.
We may develop, redevelop or expand new or existing properties or acquire other real estate related companies, and these activities are subject to various risks. We may not be successful in pursuing such development or acquisition opportunities. In addition, newly developed or redeveloped/expanded properties or newly acquired companies may
27


not perform as well as expected. We are subject to other risks in connection with any such development or acquisition activities, including the following:


we may not succeed in completing developments or consummating desired acquisitions on time;

we may face competition in pursuing development or acquisition opportunities, which could increase our costs;

we may encounter difficulties and incur substantial expenses in integrating acquired properties into our operations and systems and, in any event, the integration may require a substantial amount of time on the part of both our management and employees and therefore divert their attention from other aspects of our business;

we may undertake developments or acquisitions in new markets or industries where we do not have the same level of market knowledge, which may expose us to unanticipated risks in those markets and industries to which we are unable to effectively respond, such as an inability to attract qualified personnel with knowledge of such markets and industries;


we may incur construction costs in connection with developments, which may be higher than projected, potentially making the project unfeasible or unprofitable;

we may incur unanticipated capital expenditures in order to maintain or improve acquired properties;

we may be unable to obtain zoning, occupancy or other governmental approvals;

we may experience delays in receiving rental payments for developments that are not completed on time;

our developments or acquisitions may not be profitable;

we may need the consent of third parties such as anchor tenants, mortgage lenders and joint venture partners, and those consents may be withheld;

we may incur adverse tax consequences if we fail to qualify as a REIT for U.S. federal income tax purposes following an acquisition;

we may be subject to risks associated with providing mortgage financing to third parties in connection with transactions, including any default under such mortgage financing;

we may face litigation or other claims in connection with, or as a result of, acquisitions, including claims from terminated employees, tenants, former stockholders or other third parties;

the market price of our common shares, preferred shares and debt securities may decline, particularly if we do not achieve the perceived benefits of any acquisition as rapidly or to the extent anticipated by securities or industry analysts or if the effect of an acquisition on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows is not consistent with the expectations of these analysts;

we may issue shares in connection with acquisitions resulting in dilution to our existing shareholders; and

we may assume debt or other liabilities in connection with acquisitions.


In addition, there is no assurance that planned third-party financing related to development and acquisition opportunities will be provided on a timely basis or at all, thus increasing the risk that such opportunities are delayed or fail to be completed as originally contemplated. We may also abandon development or acquisition opportunities that we have begun pursuing and consequently fail to recover expenses already incurred and have devoted management time to a matter not consummated. In some cases, we may agree to lease or other financing terms for a development project in advance of completing and funding the project, in which case we are exposed to the risk of an increase in our cost of capital during the interim period leading up to the funding, which can reduce, eliminate or result in a negative spread between our cost of capital and the payments we expect to receive from the project. Furthermore, our acquisitions of new properties or companies will expose us to the liabilities of those properties or companies, some of which we may not be aware at the time of acquisition. In addition, development of our existing properties presents similar risks. If a development or acquisition is unsuccessful, either because it is not meeting our expectations or was not completed according to our plans, we could lose our investment in the development or acquisition.



Risks That May Affect the Market Price of Our Shares


We cannot assure you we will continue paying cash dividends at current rates.
Our dividend policy is determined by our Board of Trustees. Our ability to continue payingpay dividends on our common shares or to pay dividends on our preferred shares at their stated rates or to increase our common share dividend rate will dependdepends on a number of factors, including our liquidity,
28


our financial condition and results of future operations, the performance of lease and mortgage terms by our tenants and customers, our ability to acquire, finance and lease additional properties at attractive rates, and provisions in our loan covenants. IfIn response to the financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we do nottemporarily suspended our monthly cash dividends to common shareholders in 2020. Although we reinstituted this dividend in 2021, there can be no assurances that we will maintain or increase ourany future common share dividend rate, that could have an adverse effect onand the market price of our common shares and possibly our preferred shares.shares could be adversely affected if we fail to maintain or increase such rate. Furthermore, if the Board of Trustees decides to pay dividends on our common shares partially or substantially all in common shares, that could have an adverse effect on the market price of our common shares and possibly our preferred shares.


Market interest rates may have an effect on the value of our shares.
One of the factors that investors may consider in deciding whether to buy or sell our common shares or preferred shares is our dividend rate as a percentage of our share price, relative to market interest rates. If market interest rates increase, prospective investors may desire a higher dividend rate on our common shares or seek securities paying higher dividends or interest.


Inflation may have an effect on the value of our shares.
One of the factors that investors may consider is deciding whether to buy or sell our common shares or preferred shares is our ability to increase rent or interest income on existing leases and loans in the event of significant inflation. Our long-term leases and loans typically contain provisions such as rent or interest escalators and percentage rent or percentage interest designed to mitigate the adverse impact of inflation. However, in periods of significant inflation, the impact of these provisions may be limited due to fixed escalators, rent or interest caps and percentage rent or interest breakpoints. Accordingly, if inflation increases significantly, prospective investors may desire to invest in a company that can increase revenue without such contractual limitations which could impact the market value of our shares.

Broad market fluctuations could negatively impact the market price of our shares.
The stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic that have affected the market price of the common equity of many companies, including companies in industries similar or related to ours. These broad market fluctuations could reduce the market price of our shares. Furthermore, our operating results and prospects may be below the expectations of public market analysts and investors or may be lower than those of companies with comparable market capitalizations. Either of these factors could lead to a material decline in the market price of our shares.

Market prices for our shares may be affected by perceptions about the financial health or share value of our tenants, mortgagors and mortgagorsmanagers or the performance of REIT stocks generally.
To the extent any of our tenants or customers, or their competition, report losses or slower earnings growth, take charges against earnings or enter bankruptcy proceedings, the market price for our shares could be adversely affected. The reduced economic activity resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted our tenants' businesses, financial condition and liquidity, which adversely affected the market price for our shares.The market price for our shares could also be affected by any weakness in the performance of REIT stocks generally or weakness in any of the sectors in which our tenants and customers operate.


Limits on changes in control may discourage takeover attempts which may be beneficial to our shareholders.
There are a number of provisions in our Declaration of Trust and Bylaws and under Maryland law and agreements we have with others, any of which could make it more difficult for a party to make a tender offer for our shares or complete a takeover of the Company which is not approved by our Board of Trustees. These include:


a staggered Board of Trustees that can be increased in number without shareholder approval;

a limit on beneficial ownership of our shares, which acts as a defense against a hostile takeover or acquisition of a significant or controlling interest, in addition to preserving our REIT status;

the ability of the Board of Trustees to issue preferred or common shares, to reclassify preferred or common shares, and to increase the amount of our authorized preferred or common shares, without shareholder approval;

limits on the ability of shareholders to remove trustees without cause;

29


requirements for advance notice of shareholder proposals at shareholder meetings;

provisions of Maryland law restricting business combinations and control share acquisitions not approved by the Board of Trustees and unsolicited takeovers;

provisions of Maryland law protecting corporations (and by extension REITs) against unsolicited takeovers by limiting the duties of the trustees in unsolicited takeover situations;

provisions in Maryland law providing that the trustees are not subject to any higher duty or greater scrutiny than that applied to any other director under Maryland law in transactions relating to the acquisition or potential acquisition of control;


provisions of Maryland law creating a statutory presumption that an act of the trustees satisfies the applicable standards of conduct for trustees under Maryland law;

provisions in loan or joint venture agreements putting the Company in default upon a change in control; and

provisions of employment agreements and otherour compensation arrangements with our employees calling for severance compensation and vesting of equity compensation upon termination of employment upon a change in control or certain events of the officers'employees' termination of service.


Any or all of these provisions could delay or prevent a change in control of the Company, even if the change was in our shareholders' interest or offered a greater return to our shareholders.


We may change our policies without obtaining the approval of our shareholders.
Our operating and financial policies, including our policies with respect to acquiring or financing real estate or other companies, growth, operations, indebtedness, capitalization and dividends, are exclusively determined by our Board of Trustees. Accordingly, our shareholders do not control these policies.


Dilution could affect the value of our shares.
Our future growth will depend in part on our ability to raise additional capital. If we raise additional capital through the issuance of equity securities, the interests of holders of our common shares could be diluted. Likewise, our Board of Trustees is authorized to cause us to issue preferred shares in one or more series, the holders of which would be entitled to dividends and voting and other rights as our Board of Trustees determines, and which could be senior to or convertible into our commoncommon shares. Accordingly, an issuance by us of preferred shares could be dilutive to or otherwise adversely affect the interests of holders of our common shares. As of December 31, 2017,2021, our Series C preferred shares are convertible, at each of the holder's option, into our common shares at a conversion rate of 0.38570.4148 common shares per $25.00 liquidation preference, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $64.82$60.27 per common share (subject to adjustment in certain events). Additionally, as of December 31, 2017,2021, our Series E preferred shares are convertible, at each of the holder's option, into our common shares at a conversion rate of 0.46160.4826 common shares per $25.00 liquidation preference, which is equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $54.16$51.80 per common share (subject to adjustment in certain events). Under certain circumstances in connection with a change in control of ourthe Company, holders of our Series G preferred shares may elect to convert some or all of their Series G preferred shares into a number of our common shares per Series G preferred share equal to the lesser of (a) the $25.00 per share liquidation preference, plus accrued and unpaid dividends divided by the market value of our common shares or (b) 0.7389 shares. Depending upon the number of Series C, Series E and Series G preferred shares being converted at one time, a conversion of Series C, Series E and Series G preferred shares could be dilutive to or otherwise adversely affect the interests of holders of our common shares. In addition, we may issue a significant amount of equity securities in connection with acquisitions or investments, with or without seeking shareholder approval, which could result in significant dilution to our existing shareholders.


Future offerings of debt or equity securities, which may rank senior to our common shares, may adversely affect the market price of our common shares.
If we decide to issue debt securities in the future, which would rank senior to our common shares, it is likely that they will be governed by an indenture or other instrument containing covenants restricting our operating flexibility. Additionally, any equity securities or convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue in the future may have rights, preferences and privileges more favorable than those of our common shares and may result in dilution to owners of our common shares. We and, indirectly, our shareholders, will bear the cost of issuing and servicing such
30


securities. Because our decision to issue debt or equity securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. Thus, holders of our common shares will bear the risk of our future offerings reducing the market price of our common shares and diluting the value of their shareholdings in us.


Changes in foreign currency exchange rates may have an impact on the value of our shares.
The functional currency for our Canadian operations is the Canadian dollar. As a result, our future operating results could be affected by fluctuations in the exchange rate between U.S. and Canadian dollars, which in turn could affect

our share price. We have attempted to mitigate our exposure to Canadian currency exchange risk by entering into foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge in part our exposure to exchange rate fluctuations. Foreign currency derivatives are subject to future risk of loss. We do not engage in purchasing foreign exchange contracts for speculative purposes.


Additionally, we have made investments in China and may enter other international markets which pose similar currency fluctuation risks as described above.


We may be subject to adverse legislative or regulatory tax changes that could reduce the market price of our shares.
At any time, the U.S. federal income tax laws or regulations governing REITs or the administrative interpretations of those laws or regulations may be changed, possibly with retroactive effect. In addition, there have been a number of proposals in Congress with respect to tax laws, including proposals to adopt a flat tax or replace the income tax system with a national sales tax or value-added tax.

On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was signed into law. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act made many significant changes to the U.S. federal income tax laws applicable to businesses and their owners, including REITs and their shareholders. Pursuant to this legislation, as of January 1, 2018, (1) the federal income tax rate applicable to corporations is reduced to 21%, (2) the highest marginal individual income tax rate is reduced to 37%, and (3) the corporate alternative minimum tax is repealed. In addition, individuals, estates and trusts may deduct up to 20% of certain pass-through income, including ordinary REIT dividends that are not “capital gain dividends” or “qualified dividend income,” subject to complex limitations. For taxpayers qualifying for the full deduction, the effective maximum tax rate on ordinary REIT dividends would be 29.6% (through taxable years ending in 2025). The maximum rate of withholding with respect to our distributions to non-U.S. shareholders that are treated as attributable to gains from the sale or exchange of U.S. real property interests is also reduced from 35% to 21%. The deduction of net interest expense is limited for all businesses, other than certain electing businesses, including real estate businesses, which limitation could adversely affect our taxable REIT subsidiaries.

While the changes in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act generally appear to be favorable with respect to REITs, the extensive changes to non-REIT provisions in the Internal Revenue Code may have unanticipated effects on us or our shareholders. Moreover, Congressional leaders have recognized that the process of adopting extensive tax legislation in a short amount of time without hearings and substantial time for review is likely to have led to drafting errors, issues needing clarification and unintended consequences that will have to be reviewed in subsequent tax legislation. At this point, it is not clear when Congress will address these issues or when the Internal Revenue Service will be able to issue administrative guidance on the changes made in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

We cannot predict if or when any new U.S. federal income tax law, regulation or administrative interpretation, or any amendment to any existing U.S. federal income tax law, regulation or administrative interpretation, will be adopted, promulgated or become effective or whether any such law, regulation or interpretation may take effect retroactively. We and our shareholders could be adversely affected by any such change in, or any new, U.S. federal income tax law, regulation or administrative interpretation. Furthermore, any proposals seeking broader reform of U.S. federal income tax laws, if enacted, could change the federal income tax laws applicable to REITs, subject us to federal tax or reduce or eliminate the current deduction for dividends paid to our shareholders, any of which could negatively affect the market for our shares.

While we expect that acquisitions will continue to be the percentage of total investment spending related to build-to-suit projects in 2017 decreased to approximately 59%. Build-to-suit projects remain a significant componentgreater portion of our investment spending and we expect this to continue to be the case in future years.years, we also expect that build-to-suit projects will remain a component of such spending as well. Many of our build-to-suit opportunities come to us from our existing strong relationships with property operators and developers and we expect to continue to pursue these opportunities.opportunities. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, we limited our investment spending to enhance our liquidity position in light of the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings


Resort Project in Sullivan County, New York
Prior proposed casinoWe are subject to certain claims and resort developers Concord Associates, L.P., Concord Resort, LLC and Concord Kiamesha LLC, which are affiliates of Louis Cappelli and from whom the Company acquired the Resorts World Catskills resort property (the "Cappelli Group"), commenced litigation against the Company beginning in 2011 regarding matters relating to the acquisition of that property and our relationship with Empire Resorts, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries. This litigation involves three separate cases filed in state and federal court. Two of the cases, a state and the federal case, are closed and resulted in no liability to the Company.

The remaining case was filed on October 20, 2011 by the Cappelli Group against the Company and two of its affiliateslawsuits in the Supreme Courtordinary course of the State of New York, County of Westchester (the "Westchester Action"), asserting a claim for breach of contract and the implied covenant of good faith, and seeking damages of at least $800 million, based on allegations that the Company had breached an agreement (the "Casino Development Agreement"), dated June 18, 2010. The Company moved to dismiss the complaint in the Westchester Action based on a decision issued by the Sullivan County Supreme Court (one of the two closed cases referenced above) on June 30, 2014, as affirmed by the Appellate Division, Third Department (the "Sullivan Action"). On January 26, 2016, the Westchester County Supreme Court denied the Company's motion to dismiss but ordered the Cappelli Group to amend its pleading and remove all claims and allegations previously determined by the Sullivan Action. On February 18, 2016, the Cappelli Group filed an amended complaint asserting a single cause of action for breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing based upon allegations the Company had interfered with plaintiffs’ ability to obtain financing which complied with the Casino Development Agreement. On March 23, 2016, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the Cappelli Group’s revised amended complaint. On January 5, 2017, the Westchester County Supreme Court denied the Company’s second motion to dismiss. Discovery is ongoing.

The Company has not determined that losses related to the remaining Westchester Action are probable. In light of the inherent difficulty of predictingbusiness, the outcome of litigation generally,which cannot be determined at this time. In the Company does not have sufficient information to determineopinion of management, any liability we might incur upon the amount or rangeresolution of reasonably possible loss with respect to these matters. The Company’s assessments are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management, but that may prove to be incomplete or

inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that might cause the Company to change those estimates and assumptions. The Company intends to vigorously defend the claims asserted against the Company and certain of its subsidiaries by the Cappelli Group and its affiliates, for which the Company believes it has meritorious defenses, but there can be no assurances as to the outcome of the claims and related litigation.

Early Childhood Education Tenant
During 2017, cash flow of Children’s Learning Adventure USA, LLC (“CLA Parent”) and its subsidiaries (“CLA”) was negatively impacted by challenges broughtlawsuits will not, in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on by its rapid expansion and related ramp up to stabilization and by adverse weather conditions in Texas during the third quarter of 2017. During 2017, the Company participated in negotiations among CLA and other landlords regarding a potential restructuring. Although negotiations are on-going and progress has been made toward a restructuring, investments necessary to accomplish the restructuring have not yet been secured. As a result, the Company sent CLA notices of lease termination on October 12, 2017 for the following CLA properties: (i) Broomfield, Colorado, (ii) Ashburn, Virginia, (iii) West Chester, Ohio, (iv) Chanhassen, Minnesota, (v) Ellisville, Missouri, (vi) Farm Road-Las Vegas, Nevada, (vii) Fishers, Indiana, (viii) Tredyffrin, Pennsylvania, and (ix) Westerville, Ohio.

On December 18, 2017, ten subsidiaries of CLA Parent filed separate voluntary petitions for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona (Jointly Administered under Case No. 2:17-bk-14851-BMW). The debtors in those cases include CLA Properties SPE, LLC, CLA Maple Grove, LLC, CLA Carmel, LLC, CLA West Chester, LLC, CLA One Loudoun, LLC, LLC, CLA Fishers, LLC, CLA Chanhassen, LLC, CLA Ellisville, LLC, CLA Farm, LLC, and CLA Westerville, LLC (collectively, the “CLA Debtors”). CLA Parent has not filed a petition for bankruptcy. The CLA Debtors include each of the Company's tenants to 24 out of our 25 CLA properties, including 21 operating properties, two partially completed properties and one unimproved land parcel. The only CLA tenant unaffected by the bankruptcy is CLA King of Prussia, LLC, which is the CLA tenant entity for an unimproved land parcel located in Tredyffrin, Pennsylvania. It is the Company's understanding that the CLA Debtors filed bankruptcy petitions to stay the termination of the remaining CLA leases and delay the eviction process.

CLA continues to negotiate a restructuring with third parties. The Company will continue to consider whether allconsolidated financial position or a portion of the Company's properties should be leased to other operators based on results of the restructuring process. Absent an acceptable restructuring, the Company's intention is to vigorously pursue the process of regaining possession of the properties with the goal of securing leases with one or more new tenants. On January 8, 2018, the Company filed with the Court motions seeking rent for the post-petition period beginning on December 18, 2017. The hearing for these motions has been scheduled for March 14, 2018. On January 8, 2018, the Company also filed with the Court motions seeking relief from the automatic stay seeking the right to terminate the remaining leases and evict the CLA Debtors from the properties. There can be no assurance as to the outcome or timing of such proceedings.operations.

We declared dividends to common shareholders aggregating $4.08 and $3.84 per common share in 2017 and 2016, respectively.

While we intend to continue paying regular dividends, future dividend declarations will be at the discretion of the Board of Trustees and will depend on our actual cash flow, our financial condition, capital requirements, the annual distribution requirements under the REIT provisions of the Code, debt covenants and other factors the Board of Trustees deems relevant. We pay dividends to our common shareholders on a monthly basis and expect to continue to pay such dividends monthly. Additionally, we pay dividends to our preferred shareholders on a quarterly basis and expect to continue to pay such dividends quarterly. The actual cash flow available to pay dividends may be affected by a number of factors, including the revenues received from rental properties and mortgage notes, our operating expenses, debt service on our borrowings, the ability of tenants and customers to meet their obligations to us and any unanticipated capital expenditures. Our Series C convertible preferred shares have a fixed dividend rate of 5.75%, our Series E convertible preferred shares have a fixed dividend rate of 9.00% and our Series G redeemable preferred shares have a fixed dividend rate of 5.75%.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations


The following discussionManagement's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) is intended to promote an understanding of our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and certain other factors that may affect future results. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statementsconsolidated financial statements and Notesnotes thereto included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The forward-looking statements included in this discussion and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K involve risks and uncertainties, including anticipated financial performance, business prospects, industry trends, shareholder returns, performance of leases by tenants, performance on loans to customers and other matters, which reflect management’s best judgment based on factors currently known. See “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements.” Actual results and experience could differ materially from the anticipated results and other expectations expressed in our forward-looking statements as a result of a number of factors, including but not limited to those discussed in this Item and in Item 1A - “Risk Factors.”


Overview


Business
Our principal business objective is to enhance shareholder value by achieving predictable and increasing FFOFunds From Operations As Adjusted ("FFOAA") and dividends per share. Our prevailing strategy is to focus on long-term investments in a limited number of categories inthe Experiential sector which we maintain abenefit from our depth of knowledge and relationships, and which we believe offer sustained performance throughout allmost economic cycles. See Item 1 - "Business" for further discussion regarding our strategic rationale for our focus on experiential properties.

Our investment portfolio includes ownership of and long-term mortgages on entertainment, recreationExperiential and educationEducation properties. Substantially all of our owned single-tenant properties are leased pursuant to long-term, triple-net leases, under which the tenants typically pay all operating expenses of the property. Tenants at our owned multi-tenant properties are typically required to pay common area maintenance charges to reimburse us for their pro-rata portion of these costs. We also own certain experiential lodging assets structured using traditional REIT lodging structures as discussed in Item 1 - "Business."


It has been our strategy to structure leases and financings to ensure a positive spread between our cost of capital and the rentals or interest paid by our tenants. We have primarily acquired or developed new properties that are pre-leased to a single tenant or multi-tenant properties that have a high occupancy rate. We have also entered into certain joint ventures and we have provided mortgage note financing. We intend to continue entering into some or all of these types of arrangements in the foreseeable future.


36


Historically, our primary challenges havehad been locating suitable properties, negotiating favorable lease or financing terms (on new or existing properties), and managing our portfolio as we have continued to grow. We believe our management’s knowledge and industry relationships have facilitated opportunities for us to acquire, finance and lease properties. The current economic situation created by the COVID-19 pandemic has impeded our growth in the near term while our focus has been addressing challenges brought on by the pandemic, including monitoring customer status and working with customers to help ensure long-term stability as well as assisting them in reopening plans. Following our election to terminate the Covenant Relief Period early as described below and recent improvements in the business operations of our customers, we expect our focus to return to the growth of the Company. See more discussion on the impact of the pandemic on our business below. Our business is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including those described in Item 1A - “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of this report.


We group our investments into four reportable operating segments: Entertainment, Recreation, Education and Other. As of December 31, 2017,2021, our total assets were approximately $6.2approximately $5.8 billion (after accumulated depreciation of approximately $0.7$1.2 billion) which included investments in each of our four operating segments with properties located in 4244 states the District of Columbia and Ontario, Canada. Our total investments (a non-GAAP financial measure) were approximately $6.4 billion at December 31, 2021. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for the calculation of total investments and reconciliation of total investments to "Total assets" in the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2021 and 2020. We group our investments into two reportable segments, Experiential and Education. As of December 31, 2021, our Experiential investments comprised $5.8 billion, or 91%, and our Education investments comprised $0.6 billion, or 9%, of our total investments.

Our EntertainmentAs of December 31, 2021, our Experiential segment included investments in 147 megaplex theatres, seven entertainment retail centers (which included seven additional megaplex theatres) and 11 family entertainment centers.

COVID-19 Update
We continue to be subject to risks and uncertainties resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted global economic activity and caused significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many jurisdictions within the United States and abroad instituted health and safety measures, including quarantines, and mandated business and school closures and travel restrictions. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted experiential real estate properties, given that such properties involve congregate social activity and discretionary consumer spending. Although many of these
37


health and safety measures have been lifted, the extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business still remains highly uncertain and difficult to predict.

As of December 31, 2017,2021, we also had investedno properties closed due to COVID-19 restrictions. The continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business will depend on several factors, including, but not limited to, the scope, severity and duration or any resurgence of the pandemic (including COVID-19 variants), the actions taken to contain the outbreak or any resurgence or mitigate their impacts, the distribution and efficacy of vaccines and therapeutics, the ability of communities to achieve herd immunity, the public’s confidence in the health and safety measures implemented by our tenants and borrowers, the continuing direct and indirect economic effects of the outbreak and containment measures, and the ability of our tenants and borrowers to recover from the negative economic impacts of the pandemic as it subsides and, in many cases, service elevated levels of debt resulting from the pandemic, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. During 2020 and 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected our business, and could continue to have material adverse effects on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Our consolidated financial statements reflect estimates and assumptions made by management that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods presented. We considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the assumptions and estimates used in determining our financial condition and results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

The following summarizes the impacts to our financial statements during the year ended December 31, 2021 arising out of or related to the COVID-19 pandemic:

We continued to recognize revenue on a cash basis for certain tenants including AMC and Regal.
We reduced rental revenue by $11.0 million due to rent abatements.
As of December 31, 2021, we have deferred amounts due from tenants of approximately $257.6$27.3 million and amounts due from borrowers of $0.4 million that are booked as receivables. Additionally, we have amounts due from tenants that were not booked as receivables because the full amounts were not deemed probable of collection as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The amounts not booked as receivables remain obligations of the tenants and will be recognized as revenue when any such amounts are received. The repayment terms for all of these deferments vary by tenant or borrowers.
We repaid the remaining $590.0 million in propertyborrowings that we had drawn on our line of credit in 2020 as a precautionary measure to increase our cash position at that time as a result of the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Through July 12, 2021, we remained in the Covenant Relief Period under development.our Second Amended and Restated Consolidated Credit Agreement, as amended, that governed our unsecured revolving credit facility and our unsecured term loan facility ("Second Consolidated Credit Agreement") and the agreement that governs our private placement notes ("Note Purchase Agreement"). During the Covenant Relief Period, our obligation to comply with certain covenants under these agreements was waived in light of the uncertainty related to impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on us and our tenants and borrowers. We paid higher interest costs until the termination of the Covenant Relief Period. The Second Consolidated Credit Agreement and Note Purchase Agreement also imposed additional restrictions on us during the Covenant Relief Period, including limitations on making investments, incurring indebtedness, making capital expenditures, paying dividends or making other distributions, repurchasing our shares, voluntarily prepaying certain indebtedness, encumbering certain assets and maintaining a minimum liquidity amount, in each case subject to certain exceptions. The term "Covenant Relief Period," as used in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, generally means the period of time beginning on June 29, 2020 and ending on (i) December 31, 2021, in the case of our Second Consolidated Credit Agreement, or (ii) October 1, 2021 (subject to extension to January 1, 2022 at our election, subject to certain conditions), in the case of our Note Purchase Agreement governing our private placement notes. We had the right under certain circumstances to terminate the Covenant Relief Period earlier, which we exercised on July 12, 2021.

On July 12, 2021, we provided notice of our election to terminate the Covenant Relief Period early. Our election to terminate the Covenant Relief Period early meant that, effective July 13, 2021, the interest rates
38


on the debt governed by these agreements returned to the previous levels defined in the agreements, in each case based on our unsecured debt ratings. By terminating the Covenant Relief Period, we were also released from certain restrictions under these agreements, including restrictions on investments, capital expenditures, incurrences of indebtedness and payment of dividends.
In connection with amending our Second Consolidated Credit Agreement and Note Purchase Agreement to provide for the Covenant Relief Period discussed above, certain of our key subsidiaries guaranteed our obligations based on our unsecured debt ratings. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we received an investment grade rating from S&P Global Ratings on our unsecured debt. As a result, the subsidiary guarantors were released from their guarantees under these debt agreements in accordance with the terms of such agreements. Additionally, during the three months ended December 31, 2021, Moody's revised its outlook on our investment grade rating related to our unsecured debt from negative to stable.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, we decreased our expected credit losses by $22.0 million primarily due to cash collections from a borrower on a previously fully reserved note and the release of our commitments to fund additional amounts to the borrower as well as a change in the expectation in the credit loss model of the timing of the economic recovery from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The monthly cash dividends to common shareholders were temporarily suspended following the common share dividend paid on May 15, 2020 to shareholders of record as of April 30, 2020. On July 13, 2021, following termination of the Covenant Relief Period, we resumed regular monthly cash dividends to common shareholders. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we declared cash dividends totaling $1.50 per common share.

Collections of rent and interest were impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic but increased steadily throughout 2021. During the three months ended December 31, 2021, tenants and borrowers paid approximately 97% of contractual cash revenue. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we collected $63.8 million of deferred rent and interest from accrual basis tenants and borrowers that reduced related accounts and interest receivable and approximately $7.0 million in deferred rent from cash basis tenants and from tenants for which the deferred payments were not previously recognized as revenue. Contractual cash revenue is an operational measure and represents aggregate cash payments for which we are entitled under existing contracts, excluding the impact of any temporary abatements or deferrals, percentage rent (rents received over base amounts), non-cash revenue, and revenue from taxable REIT subsidiaries ("TRSs") and investments in joint ventures. While deferments for this and future periods delay rent or mortgage payments, these deferments generally do not release customers from the obligation to pay the deferred amounts in the future. Deferred rent amounts are reflected in our financial statements as accounts receivable if collection is determined to be probable or will be recognized when received as variable lease payments if collection is determined to not be probable, while deferred mortgage payments are reflected as mortgage notes and related accrued interest receivable, less any allowance for credit loss. Certain agreements with tenants where remaining lease terms are extended, or other changes are made that do not qualify for the treatment in the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Staff Q&A on Topic 842 and Topic 840: Accounting for Lease Concessions Related to the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic, are treated as lease modifications. In these circumstances upon an executed lease modification, if the tenant is not being recognized on a cash basis, the contractual rent reflected in accounts receivable and the straight-line rent receivable will be amortized over the remaining term of the lease against rental revenue. In limited cases, tenants may be entitled to the abatement of rent during governmentally imposed prohibitions on business operations which is recognized in the period to which it relates, or we may provide rent concessions to tenants. In cases where we provide concessions to tenants to which they are not otherwise entitled, those amounts are recognized in the period in which the concession is granted unless the changes are accounted for as lease modifications.

Investment Spending Overview
During 2017, our total investment spending was $1.6 billion compared to $805.0 million in the prior year with increases in our Entertainment and Recreation segments, offset by a decrease in our Education and Other segments.

During 2017, our investment spending in our Entertainment segment was $319.7 million compared to $266.1 million in the prior year. The current year included spending on build-to-suit development and redevelopment of megaplex theatres, entertainment retail centers and family entertainment centers, as well as $154.1 million in acquisitions of six megaplex theatres. We continued to have build-to-suit opportunities available for megaplex theatres and family entertainment centers at attractive terms with both existing and new tenants. Additionally, many megaplex theatre operators are pursuing the renovation of theatres to include enhanced amenities such as luxury seating and expanded food and beverage offerings. This trend has provided us with redevelopment and build-to-suit opportunities that are expected to continue in the future.

During 2017, our investment spending in our Recreation segment was $1.0 billion compared to $198.3 million in the prior year, and primarily related to our transaction with CNL Lifestyle and OZRE valued at $730.8 million discussed below. Additionally, included in recreation investment spending was build-to-suit golf entertainment complexes and attractions, redevelopment of ski properties, $62.7 million in acquisitions of six other recreation facilities and an investment of $10.8 million in a mortgage note secured by one other recreation facility. We expect to continue to pursue opportunities in this segment.

On April 6, 2017, we completed a transaction with CNL Lifestyle and OZRE. We acquired the Northstar California Resort, 15 attraction properties (waterparks and amusement parks), five small family entertainment centers and certain related working capital for aggregate consideration valued at $479.8 million, including final purchase price adjustments. Additionally, we provided $251.0 million of secured debt financing to OZRE for its purchase of 14 CNL Lifestyle ski properties valued at $374.5 million. Subsequent to the transaction, we sold the five family entertainment centers for approximately $6.8 million and one waterpark for approximately $2.5 million. No gain or loss was recognized on these sales. See Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report Form 10-K for further detail.

During 2017, our investment spending in our Education segment was $255.1 million compared to $338.7 million in the prior year. The current year included spending on build-to-suit development and redevelopment of public charter schools, early education centers and private schools, as well as $38.5 million in acquisitions of seven early education centers and two public charter schools and an investment of $97.6 million in mortgage notes receivable. The current year investment spending decreased over the prior year, primarily due to a large investment of $100.0 million in mortgage notes that occurred at the end of 2016. During 2017, we continued to significantly diversify our tenant base in public charter schools and early education centers and we expect to continue to do so in 2018.

During 2017, our investment spending in our Other segment was $1.1 million compared to $1.9 million in prior year, and related to the Resorts World Catskills casino and resort project in Sullivan County, New York.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates


The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions in certain circumstances that affect amounts reported in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and related notes. In preparing these financial statements, management has made its best estimates and assumptions that affect the reported assets and liabilities.liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. The most significant assumptions and estimates relate to the valuation of real estate, accounting for real estate acquisitions, estimating reserves for uncollectibleassessing the collectibility of receivables and the impairment ofcredit loss related to mortgage and other notes receivable. Application of these assumptions requires the exercise of judgment as to future uncertainties and, as a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.


Impairment of Real Estate Values
We are required to make subjective assessments as to whether there are impairments in the value of our rental properties.real estate investments. These estimates of impairment may have a direct impact on our consolidated financial statements. We assess the carrying value of our rental propertiesreal estate investments whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount

of a property may not be recoverable. Certain factors may indicate that impairments exist which include, but are not limited to, underperformanceunder-performance relative to projected future operating results, change in the time period we expect to hold the property, tenant difficulties and significant adverse industry or market economic trends. If an indicator of possible impairment exists, athe property that is held and used by the Company is evaluated for impairment by comparingcompleting the undiscounted cash flow test, which compares the carrying amount of the propertyreal estate investment to the estimated undiscounted

future cash flows expected to be generated by(undiscounted and without interest charges), including the property.residual value of the real estate. If the carrying amount of a property exceeds its estimated future cash flows on an undiscounted basis, an impairment charge is recognized inindicated, a loss will be recorded for the amount by which the carrying amountvalue of the asset exceeds its estimated fair value.

The assumptions used to derive the estimated future cash flows for the undiscounted cash flow test are based on capitalization rates, anticipated future market rent and our anticipated hold period, all of which are subjective. Market rent assumptions used for the estimated future cash flows as well as the capitalization rate used to estimate the residual value of the real estate can fluctuate based on economic and industry specific factors. Changes in these assumptions could materially impact the result of the undiscounted cash flow test. If there is a shift in economic conditions, or a change in our property exceedsstrategy, including a reduction in our anticipated hold period, these changes could materially impact the estimated undiscounted cash flows and lead to an impairment loss. The loss is calculated based upon the difference between the fair value and the carrying value of the property. For assets and asset groups that are held for sale, an impairment loss is measured by comparingWe generally use the income approach to derive the fair value of the property, less costswhich includes estimates for market rent, capitalization rates, and discount rates that are subjective and can be impacted by a lack of comparable transactions. We may also take into account real estate purchase offers to sell, toderive the asset (group) carrying value. Management estimates fair value of our rental properties utilizing independent appraisals and/or based on projected discounted cash flows using a discount rate determined by management tothe real estate if it is anticipated that the property may be commensurate with the risk inherent in the property.sold.


Real Estate Acquisitions
Upon acquisition of real estate properties, we evaluate the acquisition to determine if it is a business combination or an asset acquisition. In January 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards
Update ("ASU") No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The update
clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whetherGenerally, our acquisitions should be accounted for as business combinations orare considered asset acquisitions. The standard is effective for annual
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption of the guidance permitted. We have elected to early adopt ASU 2017-01 as of January 1, 2017. As a result,
we expect that fewer of our real estate acquisitions will be accounted for as business combinations.

Prior to the adoption of ASU 2017-01, we typically accounted for (1) acquired vacant properties, (2) acquired single tenant properties when a new lease or leases were signed at the time of acquisition, and (3) acquired single tenant properties that had an existing long-term triple-net lease or leases (greater than seven years) as asset acquisitions. Acquisitions of properties with shorter-term leases or properties with multiple tenants that require business related activities to manage and maintain the properties (i.e. those properties that involve a process) were treated as business combinations.

If the acquisition is determined to be an asset acquisition, we recordallocate the purchase price and other related costs incurred to the acquired tangible assets (consisting of land, building, tenant improvements, and furniture, fixtures and equipment) and identified intangible assets and liabilities (consisting of above and below market leases, in-place leases, tenant relationships and assumed financing that is determined to be above or below market terms) on a relative fair value basis. Typically, relative fair values are based on recent independent appraisals or methods similar to those used by independent appraisers, andas well as management judgment. In addition, acquisition-related costs incurred for asset acquisitions including transaction costs, are capitalized.

Costs relatedaccrued rental rate increases to such transactions, as well as costs associated with terminated transactions, are included inbe received over the accompanying consolidated statementslife of income as transaction costs.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Management makes quarterly estimates ofthe existing leases. We regularly evaluate the collectibility of its accounts receivable related to base rents,our receivables on a lease by lease basis. The evaluation primarily consists of reviewing past due account balances and considering such factors as the credit quality of our tenants, historical trends of the tenant, escalations (straight-line rents), reimbursements and other revenue or income. Management specifically monitors trends in accounts receivable, historical bad debts, customer credit worthiness,property level metrics, current economic trendsconditions and changes in customer payment termsterms. We suspend revenue recognition when evaluating the adequacycollectibility of its allowance for doubtful accounts. In addition, when customersamounts due are in bankruptcy, management makesno longer probable and record a direct write-off of the receivable to revenue.

To determine if the collection of lease receivables is probable, we review our tenants' financial condition, including estimates of their expected future operating results, which are subjective. The tenant's current and estimated future operating results, the expected recoverytenant's ability to obtain additional financing, as well as the ability and intention to pay lease receivables can vary based on economic conditions and industry specific factors. If economic conditions or the tenant's financial condition or results decline, the anticipated collection of pre-petition administrativeoutstanding lease receivables may not be probable and damage claims. These estimates have a direct impact on our net income.could result in the suspension of revenue recognition and the write off of the lease receivable.




ImpairmentCollectibility of Mortgage and Notes Receivables
Our mortgage and Other Notes Receivable
notes receivables consist of loans originated by us and the related accrued and unpaid interest income. We regularly evaluate the collectibility of both interestour receivables by considering such factors as the credit quality of our borrowers, historical trends of the borrower, our historical loss experience, current portfolio, market and principaleconomic conditions and changes in borrower payment terms. We estimate our current expected credit losses on a

loan-by-loan basis using a forward-looking commercial real estate forecasting tool. We record credit loss expense and reduce our mortgage note and note receivables balances by the allowance for each loan to determine whether it is impaired. A loan is considered to be impaired when, basedcredit losses on current informationa quarterly basis in accordance with ASC 326. In the event we have a past due mortgage note or note receivable and events, we determine it is collateral dependent, we measure expected credit losses based on the fair value of the collateral. If foreclosure is deemed probable, and we expect to sell rather than operate the collateral, we adjust the fair value of the collateral for the estimated costs to sell. Prior to 2020, we evaluated the collectibility of our mortgage and notes receivables to determine whether the loan was impaired and if it was probable that we willwould be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. Certain factors that may occur

The significant assumptions used in the forecasting tool to estimate our current expected credit losses include loan level assumptions such as loan to value ratio and indicate that impairments may exist include, but are not limited to: underperformance relative to projected future operating results, borrower difficultiesdebt service coverage ratio, as well as market level assumptions such as unemployment rates, interest rates and significant adverse industryreal estate price indices. Changes in these assumptions could materially impact the allowance for credit losses. If economic conditions or market economic trends. Whenthe borrower's financial condition declines, this could result in additional credit loss expense, the suspension of interest income recognition or the write off of the receivables.

Recent Developments


Debt Financing
During the year ended December 31, 2017, we prepaid in full nine mortgage notes payable totaling $73.0 million that were secured by nine theatre properties. In addition, we prepaid in full a mortgage note payable of $87.0 million that was secured by 11 theatre properties. In connection with this note payoff, we recorded a gain on early extinguishment of debt of $1.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. The gain represents the difference between the carrying value of the note and the amount due at payoff as the note was recorded at fair value upon acquisition and was not anticipated to be paid off in advance of maturity.

On May 23, 2017, we issued $450.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes due on June 1, 2027 pursuant to an underwritten public offering. The notes bear interest at an annual rate of 4.50%. Interest is payable on June 1 and December 1 of each year beginning on December 1, 2017 until the stated maturity date of June 1, 2027. The notes were issued at 99.393% of their face value and are unsecured. We used the net proceeds from the note offering to pay down our unsecured revolving credit facility, invest in mortgage notes secured by education properties and for general business purposes.

On August 30, 2017, we refinanced our variable-rate bonds payable totaling $25.0 million which are secured by three theatre properties. The maturity date was extended from October 1, 2037 to August 1, 2047 and the outstanding principal balance and interest rate were not changed.

On September 27, 2017, we amended our unsecured consolidated credit agreement which governs our unsecured revolving credit facility and our unsecured term loan facility.

The amendments to the unsecured revolving portion of the credit facility, among other things, (i) increase the initial maximum available amount from $650.0 million to $1.0 billion, (ii) extend the maturity date from April 24, 2019, to February 27, 2022 (with us having the right to extend the loan for an additional seven months) and (iii) lower the interest rate and facility fee pricing based on a grid related to our senior unsecured credit ratings which at closing was LIBOR plus 1.00% and 0.20%, versus LIBOR plus 1.25% and 0.25%, respectively, under the previous terms. In connection with the amendment, $19 thousand of deferred financing costs (net of accumulated amortization) were written off during the year ended December 31, 2017 and are included in costs associated with loan refinancing. At December 31, 2017, we had $210.0 million outstanding under this portion of the facility.

The amendments to the unsecured term loan portion of the credit facility, among other things, (i) increase the initial amount from $350.0 million to $400.0 million, (ii) extend the maturity date from April 24, 2020, to February 27, 2023 and (iii) lower the interest rate based on a grid related to our senior unsecured credit ratings which at closing was LIBOR plus 1.10% versus LIBOR plus 1.40% under the previous terms. In connection with the amendment, $1.5 million of deferred financing costs (net of accumulated amortization) were written off during the year ended December 31, 2017 and are included in costs associated with loan refinancing. At closing, we borrowed the remaining $50.0 million available on the $400.0 million term loan portion of the facility, which was used to pay down a portion of our unsecured revolving

credit facility. On October 31, 2017, we entered into three interest rate swap agreements to fix the interest rate at 3.15% on an additional $50.0 million of borrowings under our unsecured term loan facility from November 6, 2017 to April 4, 2019 and on $350.0 million of borrowings under the unsecured term loan facility from April 5, 2019 to February 7, 2022.

In addition, there is a $1.0 billion accordion feature on the combined unsecured revolving credit and term loan facility that increases the maximum amount available under the combined facility, subject to lender approval, from $1.4 billion to $2.4 billion. If we exercise all or any portion of the accordion feature, the resulting increase in the facility may have a shorter or longer maturity date and different pricing terms.

In connection with the amendment to the unsecured consolidated credit agreement, the obligations of our subsidiaries that were co-borrowers under our prior senior unsecured revolving credit and term loan facility were released. As a result, simultaneously with the amendment, the guarantees by our subsidiaries that were guarantors with respect to our outstanding 4.50% Senior Notes due 2027, 4.75% Senior Notes due 2026, 4.50% Senior Notes due 2025, 5.25% Senior Notes due 2023, 5.75% Senior Notes due 2022, and 7.75% Senior Notes due 2020 were released in accordance with the terms of the applicable indentures governing such notes.

In addition, the guarantees by our subsidiaries that were guarantors of our outstanding 4.35% Series A Guaranteed Senior Notes due August 22, 2024 and 4.56% Series B Guaranteed Senior Notes due August 22, 2026 (referred to herein as the "private placement notes") were also released. The foregoing release was effected by us entering into an amendment to the Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 27, 2017. The amendment to the private placement notes releases our subsidiary guarantors as described above and among other things: (i) amends certain financial and other covenants and provisions in the Note Purchase Agreement to conform generally to the corresponding covenants and provisions contained in the amended unsecured consolidated credit agreement; (ii) provides the investors thereunder certain additional guaranty and lien rights, in the event that certain subsequent events occur; (iii) expands the scope of the “most favored lender” covenant contained in the Note Purchase Agreement; and (iv) imposes restrictions on debt that can be incurred by certain of our subsidiaries.

Subsequent to December 31, 2017, we prepaid in full a mortgage note payable totaling $11.7 million that was secured by a theatre property. Additionally, on February 28, 2018, we redeemed all of the outstanding 7.75% Senior Notes due July 15, 2020. The notes were redeemed at a price equal to the principal amount of $250.0 million plus a premium calculated pursuant to the terms of the indenture of $28.6 million (which will be expensed in the first quarter of 2018), together with accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including the redemption date.

Issuance of Common Shares
During the year ended December 31, 2017, we issued an aggregate of 1,382,730 common shares under the direct share purchase component of our Dividend Reinvestment and Direct Share Purchase Plan ("DSPP") for total net proceeds of $98.2 million. These proceeds were used to pay down a portion of our unsecured revolving credit facility.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, we also issued 8,851,264 common shares in connection with our transaction with CNL Lifestyle and OZRE.

Issuance of Series G Preferred Shares
On November 30, 2017, we issued 6.0 million shares of 5.75% Series G cumulative redeemable preferred shares ("Series G preferred shares") in a registered public offering at a purchase price of $25.00 per share resulting in net proceeds of approximately $144.5 million, after underwriting discounts and expenses. We will pay cumulative dividends on the Series G preferred shares from the date of original issuance in the amount of $1.4375 per share each year, which is equivalent to 5.75% of the $25.00 liquidation preference per share. See Note 11 to the consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further details.

Redemption of Series F Preferred Shares
On December 21, 2017, we redeemed all 5.0 million of our 6.625% Series F cumulative redeemable preferred shares ("Series F preferred shares"). The shares were redeemed at a redemption price of $25.299045 per share ($25.00 per share liquidation preference plus accrued dividends up to, but not including the redemption date) for a total aggregate

redemption price of approximately $126.5 million. In conjunction with the redemption, we recognized a charge representing the original issuance costs that were paid in 2012 and other redemption related expenses.

In connection with these sales, we$96.1 million and recognized a combined gain on sale of $19.4$17.9 million.

Mortgage Notes Receivable

During the year ended December 31, 2017,On March 22, 2021, we received a partial$5.1 million in proceeds representing prepayment of $4.0 millionin full on one mortgage note receivable that is secured by the observation deck of the John Hancock building in Chicago, Illinois. On December 22, 2016, the Company entered into an amendment to the loan agreement with the borrower which eliminated the full prepayment option with penalty in 2017 per the original agreement and replaced it with partial prepayment options in 2017 and 2027 with penalty. This amendment also reduced the interest rate to 9.25% which began on July 1, 2017. In connection with the partial prepayment of this note, we received a prepayment fee of $0.8 million, which is being recognized over the term of the remaining note using the effective interest method due to the related amendment to the loan agreement. Additionally, we received a partial prepayment of $0.7 million on one mortgage note receivable that

is secured by 14 ski properties. In connection with the partial prepayment, we received a prepayment fee of $0.2 million. This fee is included in mortgage and other financing income.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, we received a prepayment of $3.4 million on one mortgage note receivable that was secured by a public charterprivate school property locatedproperty. No prepayment fee was received in Dallas, Texas. In connection with this prepayment, we received a prepayment fee of $0.6 million which is included in mortgage and other financing income. In conjunction with this payoff, we wrote off $58 thousand of prepaid mortgage fees to costs associated with loan refinancing ornote payoff.


On December 22, 2017, per the terms of a mortgage note agreement, a borrower exercised their option to convert its $9.1 million mortgage note agreement to a 15-year triple-net lease agreement. As a result, we recorded the carrying value of the investment into rental property, which approximated the fair value of the property on the conversion date. There was no gain or loss recognized on this transaction.Impairment Charges

Subsequent to December 31, 2017, a borrower exercised its put option to convert its $142.9 million mortgage note agreement to a lease agreement. As a result, in 2018, we recorded the rental property at fair value, which approximated the carrying value of its investment on the conversion date. There was no gain or loss recognized on this transaction. The properties are leased pursuant to a triple-net master-lease with a 25-year term.

Investment in a Direct Financing Lease

As previously discussed, we are committed to increasing the tenant diversity of our public charter school portfolio and reducing the concentration with Imagine Schools, Inc. ("Imagine"). As part of this effort, we have engaged various brokers to help in this process and part of their feedback included the need for additional lease term on these assets. During the year ended December 31, 2017,2021, we entered into revised lease terms with Imagine which reduced rental paymentsreceived various offers to purchase two vacant properties. As a result, we reassessed the expected holding periods of such properties, and determined that the lease termestimated cash flows were not sufficient to recover the carrying values of these properties. Accordingly, we recognized impairment charges of $2.7 million on sixthe real estate investments for these two properties.

Capital Markets Activities
In exchange for loweringaddition to exiting the existing annual cash payments by approximately $0.5 millionCovenant Relief Period early and reducingpaying back the remaining lease term to 10 years, Imagine agreed that upon the saleborrowings on our line of these properties, they would enter into new 20-year leases with the buyer(s). While we believe the restructure will aid in the disposition of these assets, the changes resulted in the lease structure no longer being classified as a direct financing lease. Accordingly, we recorded an impairment charge of $9.6 millioncredit, during the year ended December 31, 2017, which2021, we issued $400.0 million in new senior unsecured notes, and paid off our $400.0 million term loan and $275.0 million of senior notes due in 2023 (including a make-whole premium). We also entered into a new amended and restated senior unsecured revolving credit facility, and subsequent to December 31, 2021, amended our private placement note agreement primarily to capture the improvements in valuation of certain investment types included an allowance for lease loss of $7.3 millionin the new revolving credit facility. See discussion below in Liquidity and an impairment charge of $2.3 million relatedCapital Resources and Note 8 to the estimated unguaranteed residual value.consolidated financial statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.


Additionally, during the year ended December 31, 2017, we performed our annual review of the estimated unguaranteed residual value on our other properties leased to Imagine and determined that the residual value on one of these properties was impaired. As such, we recorded an impairment of the unguaranteed residual value of $0.6 million during the year ended December 31, 2017.

Early Childhood Education Tenant Update

During 2017, cash flow of Children’s Learning Adventure USA, LLC (“CLA”) was negatively impacted by challenges brought on by its rapid expansion and related ramp up to stabilization and by adverse weather events in Texas during the third quarter of 2017. During 2017, we participated in negotiations among CLA and other landlords regarding a potential restructuring. Although negotiations are on-going and progress has been made toward a restructuring, investments necessary to accomplish the restructuring have not yet been secured. As a result of the slow progress with negotiations, in October 2017, we terminated nine leases with various subsidiaries of CLA, seven of which relate to completed construction and two of which relate to unimproved land. These subsidiaries of CLA continue to operate these properties (other than the two unimproved properties) as holdover tenants. In December 2017, these CLA subsidiaries (other than one of the CLA tenants for an unimproved land parcel) and other CLA subsidiaries that are tenants of our remaining leases (“CLA Debtors”) filed petitions in bankruptcy under Chapter 11 seeking the protections of the Bankruptcy Code. It is our understanding that the CLA Debtors filed these bankruptcy petitions to stay our termination of the remaining CLA leases and delay the eviction process.

While we continue to support negotiation of a restructuring that would permit CLA to continue operations, we are not willing to negotiate indefinitely. We intend to pursue our legal remedies to secure possession of our properties as

expeditiously as possible. We believe the time it will take to achieve this outcome gives CLA ample opportunity to negotiate a restructuring which, if successful, would obviate the need to evict CLA from our properties. There can be no assurances as to the ultimate outcome of such a restructuring or the Company's pursuit of its legal remedies with respect to the CLA properties.

We fully reserved approximately $6.0 million in receivables from CLA at December 31, 2017. Additionally, during the three months ended December 31, 2017, we wrote-off the full amount of non-cash straight-line rent receivables of approximately $9.0 million related to CLA to straight-line rental revenue classified in rental revenue in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. If we receive payments from CLA in the future, we will recognize them on a cash basis until a successful restructuring is completed. At December 31, 2017, we had approximately $255.7 million related to CLA classified in rental properties, net, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2017. Additionally, we had approximately $11.2 million classified in Land held for development and $14.5 million classified in Property under development in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 2017. We reviewed these balances for impairment at December 31, 2017 and determined that the estimated undiscounted future cash flows exceeded the carrying value of these properties.

On September 13, 2021, we paid off our $400.0 million unsecured term loan facility, and $1.5 million of deferred financing costs (net of accumulated amortization) were written off during the year ended December 31, 2017,2021 and are included in costs associated with loan refinancing. In connection with the pay off, we terminated the related interest rate swap agreements on our term loan facility for a cash settlement of $3.2 million.

At December 31, 2021, we had $210.0 millionno outstanding balance under our $1.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility withfacility. Effective July 13, 2021, after we terminated the Covenant Relief Period, the interest at a floating rate, ofbased on our unsecured debt ratings, returned to LIBOR plus 100 basis points,1.20% (with a LIBOR floor of zero) and the facility fee on the revolving credit facility was reduced to 0.25%.

On October 6, 2021, we entered into a Third Amended, Restated and Consolidated Credit Agreement ("Third Consolidated Credit Agreement"), governing a new amended and restated senior unsecured revolving credit facility. The new facility, which was 2.49% at December 31, 2017. The amount that we are able to borrowwill mature on October 6, 2025, replaced our then existing $1.0 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility is a function of the values and advance rates, as defined by the credit agreement, assigned to our eligible unencumbered assets, less outstanding letters of credit and less other liabilities.

At December 31, 2017, our$400.0 million senior unsecured term loan facility hadunder the Second Consolidated Credit Agreement. The new facility provides for an initial maximum principal amount of borrowing availability of
50


$1.0 billion with an “accordion” feature under which we may increase the total maximum principal amount available by $1.0 billion, to a balancetotal of $400.0 million with interest at$2.0 billion, subject to lender consent. The new facility has the same pricing terms and financial covenants as the prior facility (with improved valuation of certain asset types), as well as customary covenants and events of default. We have two options to extend the maturity date of the new credit facility by an additional six months each (for a floating ratetotal of LIBOR plus 110 basis points, which was 2.49% at 12 months), subject to paying additional fees and the absence of any default.

At December 31, 2017. As of December 31, 2017, $300.0 million of this LIBOR-based debt was fixed with interest rate swap agreements at 2.64% from July 6, 2017 to April 5, 2019. In addition, as of December 31, 2017, we have entered into interest rate swap agreements to fix the interest rate at 3.15% on an additional $50.0 million of this LIBOR-based debt from November 6, 2017 to April 5, 2019 and on $350.0 million of this LIBOR-based debt from April 6, 2019 to February 7, 2022.

At December 31, 2017,2021, we had outstanding $340.0$316.2 million of senior unsecured notes that were issued in a private placement transaction. The private placement notes were issued in two tranches with $148.0 million bearing interest at 4.35% and due August 22, 2024, and $192.0 million bearing interest at 4.56% and due August 22, 2026. At December 31, 2021, the interest rates for the private placement notes were 4.35% and 4.56% for the Series A notes due 2024 and the Series B notes due 2026, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2021, we used a portion of our cash proceeds from property sales to reduce the principal of our private placement notes by $23.8 million in accordance with the above amendments to the Note Purchase Agreement.

Subsequent to December 31, 2021, we amended the Note Purchase Agreement to, among other things: (i) amend certain financial and other covenants and provisions in the Existing Note Purchase Agreement to conform generally to the changes beneficial to us in the corresponding covenants and provisions contained in the Third Consolidated Credit Agreement, and (ii) amend certain financial and other covenants and provisions in the existing note purchase agreement to reflect the prior termination of the Covenant Relief Period and removal of related provisions.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, we received an investment grade rating from S&P Global Ratings on our unsecured debt, adding to our current investment grade rating from Moody's Investors Services. Additionally, during October of 2021, Moody's revised its outlook on our investment grade rating on our unsecured debt from negative to stable. As discussed above, we previously caused certain of our key subsidiaries to guarantee our obligations under our existing bank credit facility, private placement notes and senior unsecured bonds due to a decrease in our credit ratings resulting from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result of us obtaining an investment grade rating on our long-term unsecured debt from both S&P and Moody's, our subsidiary guarantors were released from their guarantees under these debt agreements in accordance with the terms of such agreements.

Our unsecured credit facilities and the private placement notes contain financial covenants or restrictions that limit our levels of consolidated debt, secured debt, investment levelsinvestments outside certain categories, stock repurchases and dividend distributions and require us to maintain a minimum consolidated tangible net worth and meet certain coverage levels for fixed charges and debt service. 

Additionally, thesethe debt instruments described above contain cross-default provisions if we default under other indebtedness exceeding certain amounts. Those cross-default thresholds vary from $25.0$50.0 million to in$75.0 million, depending upon the case of the note purchase agreement governing the private placement notes, $75.0 million.debt instrument. We were in compliance with theseall financial and other covenants under our debt instruments at December 31, 2017.2021.

Our principal investing activities are acquiring, developing and financing entertainment, recreationexperiential and education properties. These investing activities have generally been financed with mortgage debt and senior unsecured notes, as well as the proceeds from equity offerings. Our unsecured revolving credit facility is also used to finance the acquisition or development of properties, and to provide mortgage financing. We have and expect to continue to issue debt securities in public or private offerings. We have and may in the future assume mortgage debt in connection with property acquisitions or incur new mortgage debt on existing properties. We may also issue equity securities in connection with acquisitions. Continued growth of our rental propertyreal estate investments and mortgage financing portfolios will depend in part on our continued ability to access funds through additional borrowings and securities offerings and, to a lesser extent, our ability to assume debt in connection with property acquisitions. We may also fund investments with the proceeds from asset dispositions.


Certain of our other long-term debt agreements contain customary restrictive covenants related to financial and operating performance as well as certain cross-default provisions. We were in compliance with all financial covenants at December 31, 2017.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, we issued an aggregate of 1,382,730 common shares under the direct share purchase component of our DSPP for total net proceeds of $98.2 million.

During the year ended December 31, 2017, we issued 8,851,264 common shares in connection with the transactions with CNL Lifestyle and OZRE. See Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further information.


Subsequent to December 31, 2017, we redeemed all of the outstanding 7.75% Senior Notes due July 15, 2020. The notes were redeemed at a price equal to the principal amount of $250.0 million plus a premium of $28.6 million pursuant to the terms of the indenture, together with accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including the redemption date. Additionally, we prepaid in full a mortgage note payable totaling $11.7 million that was secured by a theatre property.

Liquidity Requirements
Short-term liquidity requirements consist primarily of normal recurring corporate operating expenses, debt service requirements, and dividendsdistributions to shareholders. We meethave historically met these requirements primarily through cash provided by operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities was $391.1 million, $306.2 million and $278.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Net cash used by investing activities was $702.2 million, $662.1 million and $568.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Net cash provided by financing activities was $333.5 million, $371.1 million and $292.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

As discussed above, we have agreed to rent and funds availablemortgage payment deferral arrangements with most of our customers as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Under these deferral arrangements, our customers are required to resume rent and mortgage payments at negotiated times, and begin repaying deferred amounts under negotiated schedules. In addition, the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may result in further extensions or adjustments for our unsecured revolving credit facility will provide adequate liquidity to fund our operations, make interest and principal payments on our debt, and allow dividends to be paid to our shareholders and avoid corporate level federal income or excise tax in accordance with REIT Internal Revenue Code requirements.customers, which we cannot predict at this time.

Commitments
(1) Our tenants, who are generally sub-tenants under the ground leases, are responsible for paying the rent under these ground leases. As of December 31, 2017,2021, rental revenue from several of our tenants, who are also sub-tenants under the ground leases, are being recognized on a cash basis. In most cases, the ground lease sub-tenants have continued to pay the rent under these ground leases. In addition, two of these properties do not currently have sub-tenants. In the event the tenant fails to pay the ground lease rent or the property is vacant, we would be primarily responsible for the payment, assuming we do not sell or re-tenant the property. The above amounts exclude contingent rent due under leases where the ground lease payment, or a portion thereof, is based on the level of the tenant's sales.

Commitments
As of December 31, 2021, we had 15 development projects with commitments to fund an aggregate of approximately $168.7$88.8 million, of commitments to fund development projects including 23 entertainment development projects for which we have commitments to fund approximately $61.5 million, seven education development projects for which we have commitments to fund approximately $41.5 million of additional improvements and four recreation development projects for which we have commitments to fund approximately $65.7 million. Of these amounts, approximately $130.3$36.0 million is expectedexpected to be funded in 2018.2022. Development costs are advanced by us in periodic draws. If we determine that construction is not being completed in accordance with the terms of the development agreements,agreement, we can discontinue funding construction draws. We have agreed to lease the properties to the operators at pre-determined rates upon completion of construction.


Additionally, as of December 31, 2017, we had a commitment to fund approximately $155.0 million, of which $40.0 million has been funded, to complete an indoor waterpark hotel and adventure park at our casino and resort project in Sullivan County, New York. Of this amount, approximately $80.0 million is expected to be funded in 2018. We are also responsible for the construction of this project's common infrastructure. In June 2016, the Sullivan County Infrastructure Local Development Corporation issued $110.0 million of Series 2016 Revenue Bonds, which is expected to fund a substantial portion of such construction costs. We received an initial reimbursement of $43.4 million of construction costs during the year ended December 31, 2016 and an additional reimbursement of $23.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2017. We expect to receive an additional $21.0 million of reimbursements over the balance of the construction period. Construction of infrastructure improvements is expected to be completed in 2018.

We have certain commitments related to our mortgage notenotes and notes receivable investments that we may be required to fund in the future. We are generally obligated to fund these commitments at the request of the borrower or upon the occurrenceoccurrence of events outside of ourits direct control. As of December 31, 2017,2021, we had sixtwo mortgage notes receivable with commitments totaling

approximately $22.7$11.8 million, of which $15.0approximately $6.4 million is expected to be funded in 2018.2022. If commitments are funded in the future, interest will be charged at rates consistent with the existing investments.

We guarantee the payment of certain economic development revenue bonds that are related to two theatres in Louisiana. During the year ended December 31, 2017, these bonds were re-issued and the maturity date of these bonds was extended to December 22, 2047. At December 31, 2017, the guarantees of the payment of these bonds totaled $24.7 million. We earn a fee at an annual rate of 4.00% over the 30-year terms of the related bonds. We have recorded $13.4 million as a deferred asset included in other assets and $13.4 million included in other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K as of December 31, 2017 related to these guarantees. No amounts have been accrued as a loss contingency related to this guarantee because payment by us is not probable.

In connection with construction of our development projects and related infrastructure, certain public agencies require posting of surety bonds to guarantee that the Company'sour obligations are satisfied. These bonds expire upon the completion of the improvements or infrastructure. As of December 31, 2017, the Company2021, we had sixfour surety bonds outstanding totaling $22.8$33.3 million.


Liquidity Analysis
In analyzing our liquidity, we generally expectWe currently anticipate that our cash provided by operating activities will meet our normal recurring operating expenses, recurring debt service requirements and dividends to shareholders.

Subsequent to December 31, 2017, we prepaid in full a mortgage note payable totaling $11.7 million that was secured by a theatre property and redeemed all of our 7.75% Senior Notes due July 15, 2020. The Senior Notes were redeemed at a price equal to the principal amount of $250.0 million plus a premium calculated pursuant to the terms of the indenture of $28.6 million. Following these payments, we have no debt payments due until 2022. Our sources of liquidity as of December 31, 2017 to make these debt pay-offs and to pay the 2018 commitments described above include the amounton hand, cash from operations, funds available under our unsecured revolving credit facility of approximately $790.0 million and unrestricted cash on hand of $41.9 million, which includes $33.8 million relatedproceeds from asset dispositions will provide adequate liquidity to funds held for a Section 1031 exchange under themeet our financial commitments, including to fund our operations, make recurring debt service payments, and allow distributions to our shareholders and avoid corporate level federal income or excise tax in accordance with REIT Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, while there can be no assurance, we expect that our sources of cash will exceed our existing commitments over the remainder of 2018.Code requirements.


We alsohave no scheduled debt payments due until 2024. We currently believe that we will be able to repay, extend, refinance or otherwise settle our debt obligations for 2019 and thereaftermaturities as the debt comes due and that we will be able to fund our remaining commitments, as necessary. However, there can be no assurance that additional financing or capital will be available, or that terms will be acceptable or advantageous to us.us, particularly in light of the continuing economic uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.


Our primary use of cash after paying operating expenses, debt service, dividendsdistributions to shareholders, funding share repurchases and funding existing commitments is in growing our investment portfolio through the acquisition, development and financing of additional properties. We expect to finance these investments with borrowings under our unsecured revolving credit facility as well as debt and equity financing alternatives andor proceeds from asset dispositions. The availability and terms of any such financing or sales will depend upon market and other conditions. If we borrow the maximum amount available under our unsecured revolving credit facility, there can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional or substitute investment financing (See Item 1A - “Risk Factors”).financing. We may also assume mortgage debt in connection with property acquisitions.

Capital Structure
We believe that our shareholders are best served by a conservative capital structure. Therefore, we seek to maintain a conservative debt level on our balance sheet as measured primarily by our net debt to adjusted EBITDAEBITDAre ratio (see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for definitions). We also seek to maintain conservative interest, fixed charge, debt service coverage and net debt to gross asset ratios.

We expect to maintain our net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio between 4.6x to 5.6x. Our net debt to adjusted EBITDAEBITDAre ratio was 5.39x5.2x and our net debt to gross assets ratio was 38% as of December 31, 20172021 (see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for calculation). Because adjusted EBITDA as defined does not include the annualization of adjustments for projects put in service during the quarter and other items, and net debt includes the debt provided for build-to-suit projects under development that do not have any


current EBITDA, we also look at a ratio adjusted for these items. The level of this additional ratio, along with the timing and size of our equity and debt offerings, may cause us to temporarily operate outside our stated range for the net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio of 4.6x to 5.6x.

Our net debt (see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for definition) to gross assets ratio (i.e. net debt to total assets plus accumulated depreciation less cash and cash equivalents) was 44% as of December 31, 2017. Our net debt as a percentage of our total market capitalization at December 31, 2017 was 37%. We calculate our total market capitalization of $8.2 billion by aggregating the following at December 31, 2017:

Common shares outstanding of 74,125,080 multiplied by the last reported sales price of our common shares on the NYSE of $65.46 per share, or $4.9 billion;
Aggregate liquidation value of our Series C convertible preferred shares of $135.0 million;
Aggregate liquidation value of our Series E convertible preferred shares of $86.2 million;
Aggregate liquidation value of our Series G redeemable preferred shares of $150.0 million; and
Net debt of $3.0 billion.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures


Funds From Operations (FFO), Funds From Operations As Adjusted (FFOAA) and Adjusted Funds from Operations (AFFO)

The National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“NAREIT”) developed FFO as a relative non-GAAP financial measure of performance of an equity REIT in order to recognize that income-producing real estate historically has not depreciated on the basis determined under GAAP. Pursuant to the definition of FFO by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, we calculate FFO as net income available(loss) available to common shareholders, computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding gains and losses from salesdisposition of depreciable operating propertiesreal estate and impairment losses of depreciableon real estate, plus real estate related depreciation and amortization, and after adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and other affiliates. Adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and other affiliates are calculated to reflect FFO on the same basis. We have calculated FFO for all periods presented in accordance with this definition.


In addition to FFO, we present FFOAA and AFFO. FFOAA is presented by adding to FFO costs (gain) associated with loan refinancing or payoff, net, transaction costs, retirement severance expense, preferred share redemption costs, termination fees associated with tenants' exercises of public charter school buy-out options, impairment of direct financingoperating lease (allowance for leaseright-of-use assets and credit loss portion)(benefit) expense and provision for loan losses and subtracting gain on early extinguishment of debt, gain (loss) on sale of land, gain on insurance recovery and deferred income tax benefit (expense).(benefit) expense. AFFO is presented by adding to FFOAA non-real estate depreciation and
53


amortization, deferred financing fees amortization, share-based compensation expense to management and Trustees and amortization of above/above and below market leases, net;net and tenant allowances; and subtracting maintenance capital expenditures (including second generation tenant improvements and leasing commissions), straight-linestraight-lined rental revenue (removing the impact of straight-line ground sublease expense), and the non-cash portion of mortgage and other financing income.


FFO, FFOAA and AFFO are widely used measures ofof the operating performance of real estate companies and are provided here as a supplemental measuremeasures to GAAP net income available(loss) available to common shareholders and earnings per share, and management provides FFO, FFOAA and AFFO herein because it believes this information is useful to investors in this regard. FFO, FFOAA and AFFO are non-GAAP financial measures. FFO, FFOAA and AFFO do not represent cash flows from operations as defined by GAAP and are not indicative that cash flows are adequate to fund all cash needs and are not to be considered alternatives to net income or any other GAAP measure as a measurement of the results of our operations or our cash flows or liquidity as defined by GAAP. It should also be noted that not all REITs calculate FFO, FFOAA and AFFO the same way so comparisons with other REITs may not be meaningful.


The following table summarizes our FFO, FFOAA and AFFO including per share amounts for FFO and FFOAA, for the years ended December 31, 2017, 20162021, 2020 and 20152019 and reconciles such measures to net income (loss) available to common shareholders, the most directly comparable GAAP measure (unaudited, in thousands, except per share information):

(1) Impairment charges recognized during the year ended December 31, 2020 totaled $85.7 million, which was comprised of $70.7 million of impairments of real estate investments and $15.0 million of impairments of operating lease right-of-use assets.
(2) Includes maintenance capital expenditures and certain second-generation tenant improvements and leasing commissions.

The effect of the conversion of our convertible preferred shares is calculated using the if-converted method and the conversion which results in the most dilution is included in the computation of per share amounts. The additional common shares that would result from the conversion of the 5.75% Series C cumulative convertible preferred shares and the 9.00% Series E cumulative convertible preferred shares for each of the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the corresponding add-back of the preferred dividends declared on those shares are not included in the calculation of diluted FFO and FFOAA per share because the effect is anti-dilutive.

The conversion of the 5.75% Series C cumulative convertible preferred shares and the 9.00% Series E cumulative convertible preferred shares would be dilutive to FFO and FFOAA per share for the year ended December 31, 2017.2019. Therefore, the additional 2.1 million and 1.6 million common shares that would result from the conversion and the corresponding add-back of the preferred dividends declared on those shares are included in the calculation of diluted FFO and diluted FFOAA per share for the year ended December 31, 2017. that period.


The conversion of 5.75% Series C cumulative convertible preferred shares would be dilutive to FFO and FFOAA per share for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. Therefore, the additional 2.0 million common shares that would result from the conversion and the corresponding add-back of the preferred dividends declared on those shares are included in the calculation of diluted FFO and diluted FFOAA per share for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015. The effect of the conversion of our 9.0% Series E cumulative convertible preferred shares and the additional 1.6 million common shares that would result from the conversion do not result in more dilution to per share results and are therefore not included in the calculation of diluted FFO and FFOAA per share data for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015.

Net Debt

Net Debt represents debt (reported in accordance with GAAP) adjusted to exclude deferred financing costs, net and reduced for cash and cash equivalents. By excluding deferred financing costs, net and reducing debt for cash and cash equivalents on hand, the result provides an estimate of the contractual amount of borrowed capital to be repaid, net of cash available to repay it. We believe this calculation constitutes a beneficial supplemental non-GAAP financial disclosure to investors in understanding our financial condition. Our method of calculating Net Debt may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.


Gross Assets
Gross Assets represents total assets (reported in accordance with GAAP) adjusted to exclude accumulated depreciation and reduced for cash and cash equivalents. By excluding accumulated depreciation and reducing cash and cash equivalents, the result provides an estimate of the investment made by us. We believe that investors commonly use versions of this calculation in a similar manner. Our method of calculating Gross Assets may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

Net Debt to Gross Assets Ratio
Net Debt to Gross Assets Ratio is a supplemental measure derived from non-GAAP financial measures that we use to evaluate capital structure and the magnitude of debt to gross assets. We believe that investors commonly use versions of this ratio in a similar manner. Our method of calculating Net Debt to Gross Assets may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

EBITDAre
NAREIT developed EBITDAre as a relative non-GAAP financial measure of REITs, independent of a company's capital structure, to provide a uniform basis to measure the enterprise value of a company. Pursuant to the definition of EBITDAre by the Board of Governors of NAREIT, we calculate EBITDAre as net income (loss), computed in accordance with GAAP, excluding interest expense (net), income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization, gains and losses from disposition of real estate, impairment losses on real estate, costs associated with loan refinancing or payoff and adjustments for unconsolidated partnerships, joint ventures and other affiliates.

Management provides EBITDAre herein because it believes this information is useful to investors as a supplemental performance measure as it can help facilitate comparisons of operating performance between periods and with other REITs. Our method of calculating EBITDAre may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. EBITDAre is not a measure of performance under GAAP, does not represent cash generated from operations as defined by GAAP and is not indicative of cash available to fund all cash needs, including distributions. This measure should not be considered an alternative to net income or any other GAAP measure as a measurement of the results of our operations or cash flows or liquidity as defined by GAAP.

Adjusted EBITDAEBITDAre

Management uses Adjusted EBITDAEBITDAre in its analysis of the performance of the business and operations of the Company. Management believes Adjusted EBITDAEBITDAre is useful to investors because it excludes various items that management believes are not indicative of operating performance, and that it is an informative measure to use in computing various financial ratios to evaluate the Company. We define Adjusted EBITDAEBITDAre as net income available to common shareholdersEBITDAre (defined above) for the quarter excluding costs associated with loan refinancing or payoff, interest expense (net), depreciation and amortization, equity in (income) loss from joint ventures, gain (loss) on the sale of real estate, gain on early extinguishment of debt, gain on insurance recovery, income tax expense (benefit), preferred dividend requirements, preferred share redemption costs, the effect of non-cash impairment charges, retirement severance expense, the provision for loan losses andcredit loss (benefit) expense, transaction costs, (benefit),impairment losses on operating lease right-of-use assets and which is then multiplied by four to get an annual amount.prepayment fees.

Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAEBITDAre Ratio

Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAEBITDAre Ratio is a supplemental measure derived from non-GAAP financial measures that we use to evaluate our capital structure and the magnitude of our debt against our operating performance. We believe that investors commonly use versions of this ratio in a similar manner. In addition, financial institutions use versions of this ratio in connection with debt agreements to set pricing and covenant limitations. Our method of calculating Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDAEBITDAre may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs.

Total Investments

Total investments is a non-GAAP financial measure defined as the sum of the carrying values of rental propertiesreal estate investments (before accumulated depreciation), land held for development, property under development, mortgage notes receivable (including related accrued interest receivable), investment in direct financing leases, net, investment in joint ventures, intangible assets, gross (before accumulated amortization and included in other assets) and notes receivable and related accrued interest receivable, net (included in other assets). Total investments is a useful measure for management and investors as it illustrates across which asset categories the Company's funds have been invested. Our method of calculating total investments may be different from methods used by other REITs and, accordingly, may not be comparable to such other REITs. A reconciliation of total investments to total assets (computed in accordance with GAAP) is included in the following table (unaudited, in thousands):

Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards

See Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information on the impact of recently issued accounting standards on our business.





Inflation
Investments by EPR are financed with a combination of equity and debt. During inflationary periods, which are generally accompanied by rising interest rates, our ability to grow may be adversely affected because the yield on new investments may increase at a slower rate than new borrowing costs.
Substantially all of our megaplex theatre leases as well as other leases provide for base and participating rent features. In addition, certain of our mortgage notes receivable similarly provide for base and participating interest. To the extent inflation causes tenant or borrower revenues at our properties to increase over baseline amounts, we would participate in those revenue increases through our right to receive annual percentage rent and/or participating interest.
Our leases and mortgage notes receivable also may provide for escalation in base rents or interest in the event of increases in the Consumer Price Index, with generally a limit of 2% per annum, or fixed periodic increases. During deflationary periods, the escalations in base rents or interest that are dependent on increases in the Consumer Price Index in our leases and mortgage notes receivable may be adversely affected.
Our leases are generally triple-net leases requiring the tenants to pay substantially all expenses associated with the operation of the properties, thereby minimizing our exposure to increases in costs and operating expenses resulting from inflation. A portion of our megaplex theatre, retail and restaurant leases are non-triple-net leases. These non-triple net entertainment leases represent approximately 14% of our total real estate square footage. To the extent any of those leases contain fixed expense reimbursement provisions or limitations, we may be subject to increases in costs resulting from inflation that are not fully passed through to tenants.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to market risks, primarily relating to potential losses due to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We seek to mitigate the effects of fluctuations in interest rates by matching the term of new investments with new long-term fixed rate borrowings whenever possible. As of December 31, 2017,2021, we had a $1.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility with $210.0 million outstanding and $25.0 million in bonds, all of which bear interest at a floating rate.no balance outstanding. We also had a $400.0$25.0 million unsecured term loan facilitybond that bears interest at a floating rate based on LIBOR. but has been fixed through an interest rate swap agreement.
As of December 31, 2017,2021, we had a 65% investment interest in two unconsolidated real estate joint ventures related to two experiential lodging properties located in St. Petersburg Beach, Florida. At December 31, 2021, the joint ventures had a secured mortgage loan with an outstanding balance of $85.0 million. The mortgage loan bears

interest at an annual rate equal to the greater of 6.00% or LIBOR plus 3.75%. The joint venture has an interest rate swap agreementscap agreement to fixlimit the variable portion of the interest rate at 2.64%(LIBOR) on $300.0 million of this LIBOR-based debtnote to 3.0% from from July 6, 2017March 28, 2019 to April 5, 2019. Additionally, as of December 31, 2017,we had three interest rate swap agreements to fix the interest rate at 3.15% on $50.0 million of this LIBOR-based debt from November 6, 2017 to April 5, 2019 and on $350.0 million of this LIBOR-based debt from April 6, 2019 to February 7, 2022.1, 2023.
We are subject to risks associated with debt financing, including the risk that existing indebtedness may not be refinanced or that the terms of such refinancing may not be as favorable as the terms of current indebtedness.indebtedness, particularly in light of the current economic uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The majority of our borrowings are subject to contractual agreements or mortgages which limit the amount of indebtedness we may incur. Accordingly, if we are unable to raise additional equity or borrow money due to these limitations, our ability to make additional real estate investments may be limited.
The following table presents the principal amounts, weighted average interest rates, and other terms required by year of expected maturity to evaluate the expected cash flows and sensitivity to interest rate changes as of December 31 (including the impact of the interest rate swap agreements described below):

The fair value of our debt as of December 31, 20172021 and 20162020 is estimated by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument using current market rates including current market spreads.

We are exposed to foreign currency risk against our functional currency, the U.S. dollar, on our four Canadian properties and the rents received from tenants of the properties are payable in CAD. To mitigateIn order to hedge our foreign currency risknet investment in future periods on theseour four Canadian properties, we entered into cross currencytwo fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps, with a fixed original notional value of $100.0$200.0 million CADCAD. These investments became effective on July 1, 2018, mature on July 1, 2023 and $98.1 million U.S.are designated as net investment hedges of our Canadian net investments. The net effect of these swapsthis hedge is to lock in an exchange rate of $1.05$1.32 CAD per U.S. dollar on approximately $13.5$200.0 million of annual CAD denominated cash flows on the properties through June 2018. There is no initial or final exchange of the notional amounts on these swaps. These foreign currency derivatives should hedge a significant portion of our expected CAD denominated FFO of these four Canadian properties through June 2018 as their impact on our reported FFO when settled should moveforeign net investments. The cross-currency swaps also have a monthly settlement feature locked in the opposite direction of the exchange rates used to translate revenues and expenses of these properties. Additionally, on August 30, 2017, we entered into a
cross-currency swap that will be effective July 1, 2018 with a fixed original notional value of $100.0 million CAD and $79.5 million U.S. The net effect of these swaps is to lock inat an exchange rate of 1.26$1.32 CAD per U.S. dollarUSD on approximately $13.5$4.5 million of annual CAD denominatedannual cash flows, on the properties through June 2020.

For foreign currency derivatives designated as net investment hedges, the Company entered into a forward contract with a fixed notionalchange in the fair value of $100.0 million CAD and $88.1 million U.S. with a July 2018 settlement date.

EPR Properties:


Opinions on the Consolidated Financial Statements and Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of EPR Properties and subsidiaries (the “Company”)Company) as of December 31, 20172021 and 2016,2020, the related consolidated statements of income (loss) and comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2017,2021, and the related notes and financial statement schedules II and III (collectively, the “consolidatedconsolidated financial statements”)statements). We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017,2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework(2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 20172021 and 2016,2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2017,2021, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2017,2021 based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncement
As discussed in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company has changed its method of accounting for expected credit losses as of January 1, 2020 due to the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326).

Basis for OpinionOpinions
The Company’s management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”)(PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.

Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

Definition and Limitations of Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions

are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.


Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Evaluation of indicators real estate investments may not be recoverable
As discussed in Notes 2 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements, the real estate investments, net balance as of December 31, 2021 was $4.7 billion. The Company reviews a real estate investment for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the real estate investment may not be recoverable.

We identified the evaluation of indicators real estate investments may not be recoverable as a critical audit matter. There is a high degree of subjective judgement in evaluating the events or circumstances that may indicate the carrying value of real estate investments may not be recoverable. In particular, the judgements regarding the expected period the Company will hold the real estate investments and the impact of changes in the market and tenant conditions on the determination of the recoverability of the real estate investments required a higher degree of auditor judgement.

The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls related to the critical audit matter. This included controls related to the Company’s process to identify and evaluate events or changes in circumstances that may indicate the carrying amount of real estate investments may not be recoverable, including controls related to determining the period the Company will hold the real estate investments. We inquired of Company officials and inspected documents such as meeting minutes of the Board of Trustees to evaluate the likelihood that a real estate investment would be sold prior to the estimated holding period. We also perform independent evaluations, including examining current tenant information including status of accounts receivable and committee minutes related to lease negotiations for indications that the carrying value of the real estate investments may not be recoverable.

Collectability of lease receivables
As discussed in Note 2 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the accounts receivable balance as of December 31, 2021 was $78.1 million. The Company assesses the probability of collecting lease receivables on
63


a lease-by-lease basis. The evaluation primarily consists of reviewing past due account balances and considering such factors as the credit quality of the Company's tenants, historical trends of the tenants, current economic conditions, and changes in customer payment terms. Whenever the results of that assessment, events, or changes in circumstances indicate that it is no longer probable that the Company will be able to collect substantially all lease receivables or future lease payments, the Company records a charge to rental revenue for the outstanding receivable balance and suspends revenue recognition.

We identified the evaluation of the probability of collection of certain lease receivables as a critical audit matter. The assessment required subjective auditor judgment to evaluate the financial strength of tenants and the expected operating performance of the leased property.

The following are the primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter. We evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of certain internal controls over the Company’s determination of lease receivable collectability. This included controls related to the evaluation of the financial strength of tenants, and the expected operating performance of the leased property. To assess the financial strength of tenants and the expected operating performance of the leased property, for certain tenants we evaluated (1) the aging of outstanding accounts receivable, (2) recent payment history, (3) certain publicly available information about the tenants, and (4) property financial information regarding the tenants.

Description of Business
EPR Properties (the Company) iswas formed on August 22, 1997 as a specialtyMaryland real estate investment trust (REIT) organized, and an initial public offering of the Company's common shares of beneficial interest (common shares) was completed on August 29, 1997 in Maryland. TheNovember 18, 1997. Since that time, the Company develops, owns, leases and finances propertieshas been a leading diversified Experiential net lease REIT specializing in select market segments primarily related to Entertainment, Recreationenduring experiential properties. The Company's underwriting is centered on key industry and Education.property cash flow criteria, as well as the credit metrics of the Company's tenants and customers. The Company’s properties are located in the United States and Canada.


2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of EPR Properties and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned.


Risks and Uncertainties
The Company continues to be subject to risks and uncertainties resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted global economic activity and caused significant volatility and negative pressure in financial markets. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many jurisdictions within the United States and abroad instituted health and safety measures, including quarantines, mandated business and school closures and travel restrictions. As a result, the COVID-19 pandemic severely impacted experiential real estate properties, given that such properties involve congregate social activity and discretionary consumer spending. Although many of these health and safety measures have been lifted, the extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's business still remains highly uncertain and difficult to predict.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had no properties closed due to COVID-19 restrictions. The continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the scope, severity and duration of any resurgence of the pandemic (including COVID-19 variants), the actions taken to contain the outbreak or any resurgence or mitigate their impacts, the distribution and efficacy of vaccines and therapeutics, the ability of communities to achieve herd immunity, the public’s confidence in the health and safety measures implemented by the Company's tenants and borrowers, the continuing direct and indirect economic effects of the outbreak and containment measures, and the ability of the Company's tenants and borrowers to recover from the negative economic impacts of the pandemic as it subsides, and in many cases, service elevated levels of debt resulting from the pandemic, all of which are uncertain and cannot be predicted. During 2020 and 2021, the COVID-19 pandemic negatively affected the Company's business, and could continue to have material adverse effects on the Company's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

The Company’s consolidated financial statements reflect estimates and assumptions made by management that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting periods presented. The Company considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the assumptions and estimates used in determining the Company’s financial condition and results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

The following summarizes the impacts to the Company's financial statements during the year ended December 31, 2021 arising out of or related to the COVID-19 pandemic:

The Company continued to recognize revenue on a cash basis for certain tenants including American-Multi Cinema, Inc. (AMC) and Regal Cinemas (Regal), a subsidiary of Cineworld Group.
The Company reduced rental revenue by $11.0 million due to rent abatements.
As of December 31, 2021, the Company has deferred amounts due from tenants of approximately $27.3 million and amounts due from borrowers of $0.4 million that are booked as receivables. Additionally,
71


EPR PROPERTIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019
the Company has amounts due from tenants that were not booked as receivables because the full amounts were not deemed probable of collection as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The amounts not booked as receivables remain obligations of the tenants and will be recognized as revenue when received. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company collected $7.0 million in deferred rent from cash basis tenants and from tenants for which the deferred payments were not previously recognized as revenue. In addition, the Company collected $63.8 million of deferred rent and interest from accrual basis tenants and borrowers that reduced related accounts and interest receivable. The repayment terms for all of these deferments vary by tenant or borrowers.
The Company repaid the remaining $590.0 million in borrowings that was drawn on its line of credit in 2020 as a precautionary measure to increase its cash position at that time as a result of the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Through July 12, 2021, the Company remained in the Covenant Relief Period under the agreement that governed its unsecured revolving credit facility and its unsecured term loan facility (Second Consolidated Credit Agreement) and the agreement that governs its private placement notes (Note Purchase Agreement). During the Covenant Relief Period, the Company's obligation to comply with certain covenants under these agreements was waived in light of the uncertainty related to impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company and its tenants and borrowers. The Company paid higher interest costs until the termination of the Covenant Relief Period. The Second Consolidated Credit Agreement and Note Purchase Agreement also imposed additional restrictions on the Company during the Covenant Relief Period, including limitations on making investments, incurring indebtedness, making capital expenditures, paying dividends or making other distributions, repurchasing the Company's shares, voluntarily prepaying certain indebtedness, encumbering certain assets and maintaining a minimum liquidity amount, in each case subject to certain exceptions. The term "Covenant Relief Period," as used in these notes to the consolidated financial statements, generally means the period of time beginning on June 29, 2020 and ending on (i) December 31, 2021, in the case of the Company's Second Consolidated Credit Agreement, or (ii) October 1, 2021 (subject to extension to January 1, 2022 at the Company's election, subject to certain conditions), in the case of the Company's Note Purchase Agreement governing its private placement notes. The Company had the right under certain circumstances to terminate the Covenant Relief Period earlier, which it exercised on July 12, 2021.
On July 12, 2021, the Company provided notice of its election to terminate the Covenant Relief Period early. The Company’s election to terminate the Covenant Relief Period early meant that, effective July 13, 2021, the interest rates on the debt governed by these agreements returned to the previous levels defined in the agreements, in each case based on the Company's unsecured debt ratings. By terminating the Covenant Relief Period, the Company was also released from certain restrictions under these agreements, including restrictions on investments, capital expenditures, incurrences of indebtedness and payment of dividends.
In connection with amending the Company's Second Consolidated Credit Agreement and Note Purchase Agreement to provide for the Covenant Relief Period discussed above, certain of the Company's key subsidiaries guaranteed the Company's obligations based on the Company's unsecured debt ratings. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company received an investment grade rating from S&P Global Ratings on its unsecured debt. As a result, the subsidiary guarantors were released from their guarantees under these debt agreements in accordance with the terms of such agreements. Additionally, during the three months ended December 31, 2021, Moody's revised its outlook on the Company's investment grade rating on its unsecured debt from negative to stable.
During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company decreased its expected credit losses by $22.0 million primarily due to cash collections from a borrower on a previously fully reserved note and the release of its commitment to fund additional amounts to the borrower as well as a change in the expectation in the credit loss model of the timing of the economic recovery from the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The monthly cash dividends to common shareholders were temporarily suspended following the common share dividend paid on May 15, 2020 to shareholders of record as of April 30, 2020. On July 13, 2021, following termination of the Covenant Relief Period, the Company resumed regular monthly cash dividends to common shareholders. During the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company declared cash dividends totaling $1.50 per common share.

Variable Interest Entities
The Company consolidates certain entities when it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary in a variable interest entity (VIE) in which it has a controlling financial interest in accordance with the consolidation guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC). The equity method of accounting is applied to entities in which the Company is not the primary beneficiary as defined in the FASB ASC Topic on Consolidation (Topic 810), but can exercise significant influence over the entity with respect to its operations and major decisions.


The Company’s variable interest in VIEs currently are in the form of equity ownership and loans provided by the Company to a VIE or other partner. The Company examines specific criteria and uses its judgment when determining if the Company is the primary beneficiary of a VIE. The primary beneficiary generally is defined as the party with the controlling financial interest. Consideration of various factors include, but are not limited to, the Company’s ability to direct the activities that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and its obligation to absorb losses from or right to receive benefits of the VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company does not have any investments in consolidated VIEs.

Use of Estimates
Management of the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities to prepare these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.(GAAP). Actual results could differ from those estimates.


Rental PropertiesReal Estate Investments
Rental propertiesReal estate investments are carried at costinitial recorded value less accumulated depreciation. Costs incurred for asset acquisitions and the acquisition and development of the properties are capitalized. In addition, the Company capitalizes certain costs that relate to property under development including interest and a portion of internal legal personnel costs. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which generally are estimated to be 30 years to 40 years for buildings, three years to 25 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment and 10 years to 20 years for site improvements. Tenant improvements, including allowances, are depreciated over the shorter of the baselease term of the lease or the estimated useful life and leasehold interests are depreciated over the useful life of the underlying ground lease. Expenditures for ordinary maintenance and repairs are charged to operations in the period incurred. Significant renovations and improvements, which improve or extend the useful life of the asset, are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful life.


Management reviews a propertythe Company's real estate investments, including operating lease right-of-use assets, for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of a property may not be recoverable. The review of recoverabilityrecoverable, which is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from its use and eventual disposition. If impairment exists due to the inability to recover the carrying value of the property, an impairment loss is recorded to the extent that the carrying value of the property exceeds its estimated fair value.


The Company evaluates the held-for-sale classification of its real estate as of the end of each quarter. Assets that are classified as held for sale are recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Assets are generally classified as held for sale once management has initiated an active program to market them for sale and it is probable the assets will be sold within one year. On occasion, the Company will receive unsolicited offers from third parties to buy individual Company properties. Under these circumstances, the Company will classify the properties as held for sale when a sales contract is executed with no contingencies and the prospective buyer has funds at risk to ensure performance.


Real Estate Acquisitions
Upon acquisition of real estate properties, the Company determinesevaluates the acquisition to determine if the acquisitionit is a business combination or an asset acquisition. In January 2017, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2017-01, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business. The update clarifies the definition of a business with the objective of adding guidance to assist entities with evaluating whether acquisitions should be accounted for as business combinations or asset acquisitions. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after

EPR PROPERTIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015

December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early application of the guidance permitted. The Company has elected to early adopt ASU No. 2017-01as of January 1, 2017. As a result, the Company expects that fewer of its real estate acquisitions will be accounted for as business combinations.

Prior to the adoption of ASU 2017-01, the Company typically accounted for (1) acquired vacant properties, (2) acquired single tenant properties when a new lease or leases was signed at the time of acquisition, and (3) acquired single tenant properties that had an existing long-term triple-net lease or leases (greater than seven years) as asset acquisitions. Acquisitions of properties with shorter-term leases or properties with multiple tenants that require business related activities to manage and maintain the properties (i.e. those properties that involve a process) were treated as business combinations.

If the acquisition is determined to be an asset acquisition, the Company records the purchase price and other related costs incurred to the acquired tangible assets (consisting of land, building, site improvements, tenant improvements, leasehold interests and furniture, fixtures and equipment) and identified intangible assets and liabilities (consisting of above and below market leases, in-place leases, tenant relationships and assumed financing that is determined to be above or below market terms) on a relative fair value basis. Typically, relative fair values are based on recent independent appraisals or methods similar to those used by independent appraisers and management judgment. In addition, costs incurred for asset acquisitions including transaction costs, are capitalized.

If the acquisition is determined to be a business combination, the Company records the fair value of acquired tangible assets (consisting of land, building, site improvements, tenant improvements, leasehold interests and furniture, fixtures and equipment) and identified intangible assets and liabilities (consisting of above and below market leases, in-place leases, tenant relationships and assumed financing that is determined to be above or below market terms) as well as any noncontrolling interest. Typically, fair values are based on recent independent appraisals. In addition, acquisition-relatedAcquisition-related costs in connection with business combinations are expensed as incurred. Costs related to such transactions, as well as costs associated with terminated transactions, areincurred and included in "Transaction costs" in the accompanying consolidated statements of income as(loss) and comprehensive income (loss).

In addition to acquisition-related costs in connection with business combinations, transaction costs include costs associated with terminated transactions, pre-opening costs and certain leasing and tenant transition costs. Transaction costs expensed totaled $0.5 $3.4 million, $7.9$5.4 million and $7.5$23.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2017, 20162021, 2020 and 2015,2019, respectively.


For rental propertyreal estate acquisitions (asset acquisitions or business combinations), the fair value (or relative fair value in an asset acquisition) of the tangible assets is determined by valuing the property as if it were vacant based on management’s determination of the relative fair values of the assets. Management determines the “as if vacant” fair value of a property using recent independent appraisals or methods similar to those used by independent appraisers. For land acquired with a rental property acquisition,Land is valued using the sales comparison approach which uses available market data from recent comparable land sales is used as an input to estimate the fair value. Site improvements and tenant improvements are valued using the cost approach which uses replacement cost data obtained from industry recognized guides less depreciation as an input to estimate the fair value. The building is valued either using the cost approach described above or a combination of the cost and the income approach. The income approach uses market leasing assumptions to estimate the fair value of the land.property as if vacant. The cost and income approaches are reconciled to arrive at an estimated building fair value.


Most of the Company’s rental property acquisitions do not involve in-place leases. Because the Company typically executes these leases simultaneously with the purchase of the real estate, no value is ascribed to in-place leases in these transactions.

Intangibles
The fair value of acquired in-place leases also includes management’s estimate, on a lease-by-lease basis, of the present value of the following amounts: (i) the value associated with avoiding the cost of originating the acquired in-place leases (i.e. the market cost to execute the leases, including leasing commissions, legal and other related costs); (ii) the value associated with lost revenue related to tenant reimbursable operating costs estimated to be incurred during the assumed re-leasing period, (i.e. real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses); (iii) the value associated with lost rental revenue from existing leases during the assumed re-leasing period; and (iv) the value associated with avoided tenant improvement costs or other inducements to secure a tenant lease. These values are amortized over the remaining initial lease term of the respective leases.
 
In determining the fair value of acquired above and below marketbelow-market leases, the Company considers many factors. On a lease-by-lease basis, management considers the present value of the difference between the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the leases and management’s estimate of fair market lease rates. For above marketabove-market leases and below-market leases, management considers such differences over the remaining non-cancelable lease terms and for below market leases, management considers such differences over the remaining initial lease terms plus any fixed rate renewal periods.terms. The capitalized above-market lease values are amortized as a reduction of rental income over the remaining non-cancelablelease terms of

the respective leases. The capitalized below marketbelow-market lease values are amortized as an increase to rental income over the remaining initial lease terms of the respective leases. The lease term includes the minimum base term plus any fixed rate renewal periods.extension options that are reasonably certain to be exercised. Management considers several factors in determining the discount rate used in the present value calculations, including the credit risks associated with the respective tenants.

If debt is assumed in the acquisition, the determination of whether it is above or below marketbelow-market is based upon a comparison of similar financing terms for similar rental propertiesreal estate investments at the time of the acquisition.


In determining the fair value of tradenames, the Company historically uses the relief from royalty method, which estimates the fair value of hypothetical royalty income that could be generated if the intangible asset was licensed from an independent third-party.


TheIn determining the fair value of a contract intangible, the Company also considers the present value if any, associated with customer relationships considering factors such as the nature and extent of the Company’s existing business relationship withdifference between the tenants, growth prospects for developing new business withestimated "with" and "without" scenarios. The "with" scenario presents the tenantscontract in place and expectation of lease renewals.the "without" scenario incorporates the potential profits that may be lost over the period without the contract in place. The capitalized contract value of customer relationship intangibles is required to be amortized over the remaining initial lease terms plus any renewal periods.estimated useful life of the underlying asset.

For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recognized straight-line write-offs totaling $0.2 million. Straight-line rental revenue, net of write-offs, was $5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recognized straight-line write-offs totaling $38.0 million, which were comprised of $26.5 million of straight-line accounts receivable and $11.5 million of sub-lessor ground lease straight-line accounts receivable. Straight-line rental revenue, net of write-offs, was a reduction to total rental revenue of $24.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2020. For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized straight-line write-offs of $1.4 million (of which $1.2 million has been classified within discontinued operations). For the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized straight-line rental revenue, net of write-offs of $13.6 million (of which $3.0 million has been classified within discontinued operations).

The Company has agreed to defer rent for a substantial portion of its customers in response to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their operations. On April 10, 2020, the FASB issued a Staff Q&A on Topic 842 and Topic 840: Accounting for Lease Concessions Related to the Effects of the COVID-19 Pandemic. In reliance upon the FASB Staff Q&A, the Company has not treated qualifying deferrals or rent concessions during the period affected by the COVID-19 pandemic as lease modifications. While deferments for this and future periods delay rent payments, these deferments generally do not release customers from the obligation to pay the deferred amounts in the future. Deferred rent amounts are reflected in the Company's financial statements as accounts receivable if collection is determined to be probable or recognized when received as variable lease payments if collection is determined to not be probable. Certain agreements with tenants where remaining lease terms are extended, or other changes are made that do not qualify for the treatment in the FASB Staff Q&A, are treated as lease modifications. In these circumstances, upon an executed lease modification, if the tenant is not being recognized on a cash basis, the contractual rent reflected in accounts receivable and straight-line rent receivable will be amortized over the remaining term of the lease against rental revenue. In limited cases, customers may be entitled to the abatement of rent during governmentally imposed prohibitions on business operations which is recognized in the period to which the abatement relates, or the Company may provide rent concessions to tenants. In cases where the Company provides concessions to tenants to which they are not otherwise entitled, those amounts will be recognized in the period in which the concession is granted unless the changes are accounted for as lease modifications.

Most of the Company’s lease contracts are triple-net leases, which require the tenants to make payments directly to third parties for lessor costs (such as property taxes and insurance) associated with the properties. In accordance with Topic 842, the Company does not include these lessee payments to third parties in rental revenue or property operating expenses. In certain situations, the Company pays these lessor costs directly to third parties and the tenants reimburse the Company. In accordance with Topic 842, these payments are presented on a gross basis in rental revenue and property operating expense. During the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $3.5 million, $2.2 million and $6.9 million respectively, in tenant reimbursements related to the gross-up of these reimbursed expenses which are included in rental revenue.

Certain of the Company's leases, particularly at its entertainment districts, require the tenants to make payments to the Company for property related expenses such as common area maintenance. The Company has elected to combine these non-lease components with the lease components in rental revenue. For the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016,2021, 2020 and 2015,2019, the Company recognized $4.3 million, $17.0 million and $12.2 million, respectively, of straight-linenon-lease components included in rental revenue net of write-offs.

In addition, most of the Company's tenants are subject to additional rents (above base rents) if gross revenues of the properties exceed certain thresholds defined in the lease agreements (percentage rents). Percentage rents as well as participating interest for those mortgage agreements that contain similar such clauses are recognized at the time when specific triggering events occur as provided by the lease or mortgage agreements.agreement.

Significant assumptions used in estimating residual values include estimated netrental revenue and recognizes future rental revenue on a cash flows over the remaining lease term and expected future real estate values. The Company evaluates on an annual basis (or more frequently if necessary) the collectability of its direct financing lease receivable and unguaranteed residual value to determine whether they are impaired. A direct financing lease receivable is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. When a direct financing lease receivable is considered to be impaired, the amount of loss is calculated by comparing the recorded investment to the value determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the direct financing lease receivable's effective interest rate or to the fair value of the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, if such receivable is collateralized.basis.

A discontinued operation is a component of an entity or group of components that have been disposed of or are classified as held for sale and represent a strategic shift that has or will have a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results, or an acquired business that is classified as held for sale on the acquisition date.results. If the sale or disposal transaction does not meet the criteria, the operations and related gain or loss on sale is included in income from continuing operations. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation for assets that qualify for presentation as discontinued operations. See Note 16 for further details.
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable is reduced by an allowance for amounts where collection is not probable. The Company’s accounts receivable balance is comprised primarily of rents and operating cost recoveries due from tenants as well as accrued rental rate increases to be received over the life of the existing leases. The Company regularly evaluates the adequacy of its allowance for doubtful accounts. The evaluation primarily consists of reviewing past due account balances and considering such factors as the credit quality of the Company’s tenants, historical trends of the tenant and/or other debtor, current economic conditions and changes in customer payment terms. Additionally, with respect to tenants in bankruptcy, the Company estimates the expected recovery through bankruptcy claims and increases the allowance for amounts deemed uncollectible. These estimates have a direct impact on the Company's net income. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $7.5 million and $0.9 million at December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively.


Mortgage Notes and Other Notes Receivable
Mortgage notes and other notes receivable, including related accrued interest receivable, consist of loans originated by the Company and the related accrued and unpaid interest income as of the balance sheet date. Mortgage notes and other notes receivable are initially recorded at the amount advanced to the borrower.borrower less allowance for credit loss. Interest income is recognized using the effective interest method based on the stated interest rate over estimate life of the note. Premiums and discounts are amortized or accreted into income over the estimated life of the note usingnote. Interest income includes both the stated interest and the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts (if any).

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326) effective January 1, 2020, which requires allowance for credit losses to be recorded to reflect that all mortgage notes and notes receivable have some inherent risk of loss regardless of credit quality, collateral, or other mitigating factors. The Company adopted the standard on the effective interest method.date and used the effective date as the date of initial application. Accordingly, comparative periods have not been recast, and required disclosures will not be provided for dates and periods prior to January 1, 2020. On the effective date, the Company recognized credit loss expense through retained earnings and the corresponding allowance for credit losses of approximately $2.2 million, which was comprised of $2.1 million related to mortgage notes receivable and $0.1 million related to notes receivable (which are presented within "Other assets" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets). While Topic 326 does not require any particular method for determining the reserves, it does specify that it should be based on relevant information about past events, including historical loss experience, current portfolio and market conditions, as well as reasonable and supportable forecasts for the term of each mortgage note or note receivable. The Company evaluates the collectability of both interest and principal of each of its loansuses a forward looking commercial real estate forecasting tool to determine whether it is impaired. A loan is considered to be impaired when, based on current information and events, the Company determines that it is probable that it will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the existing contractual terms. An insignificant delay or shortfall in amounts of payments does not necessarily result in the loan being identified as impaired. When a loan is considered to be impaired, the amount of loss, if any, is calculated by comparing the recorded investment to the value determined by discounting the expected future cash flows at the loan’s effective interest rate or to the fair value of the Company’s interest in the underlying collateral, less costs to sell, if the loan is collateral dependent.

The CECL allowance required by Topic 326 is a valuation account that is deducted from the related mortgage note or note receivable.

Certain of the Company’s mortgage notes and notes receivable include commitments to fund incremental amounts to its borrowers. These future funding commitments are also subject to the CECL model. The allowance related to future funding is recorded as a liability and is included in "Accounts payable and accrued liabilities" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

As permitted under Topic 326, the Company determines based onmade an accounting policy election to not measure an allowance for credit losses for accrued interest receivables related to its mortgage notes and notes receivable. Accordingly, if accrued interest receivable is deemed to be uncollectible, the loan to estimated fair value ratio the loan should be on the cost recovery method, andCompany will record any cash payments received would then be reflectednecessary write-offs as a reductionreversal of principal.

Income from this borrower is recognized on a cash basis. No such amounts were written-off for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2019. As of December 31, 2021, the Company believes that all outstanding accrued interest is collectible.


In the event the Company has a past due mortgage note or note receivable and the Company determines it is collateral dependent, the Company measures expected credit losses based on the fair value of the collateral. The Company evaluates the collectability of both interest and principal for each of its mortgage notes and notes receivable on a quarterly basis to determine if foreclosure is probable. As of December 31, 2021, the Company does not have any mortgage notes or notes receivable with past due principal balances.

Mortgage and Other Financing Income
Certain of the Company's borrowers are subject to additional interest based on certain thresholds defined in the mortgage agreements (participating interest). Participating interest income is recognized at the time when specific triggering events occur as provided by the mortgage agreement. Mortgage and other financing income included participating interest income of $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. No participating interest income was recognized for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2019, mortgage and other financing income included $2.7 million (of which $1.8 million has been classified in discontinued operations) in prepayment fees related to mortgage notes that were paid fully in advance of their maturity date. No prepayment fees were recognized for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020.

Income Taxes
The Company qualifieshas elected to be taxed as a REIT underpursuant to Section 856(c) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code). A REIT that distributes at least 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders each year and which meets certain other conditions is not taxed on that portion of its taxable income which is distributed to its shareholders. The Company intends to continue to qualify as a REIT and distribute substantially all of its taxable income to its shareholders.


The Company is subject to income tax in certain instances in both the U.S. and in certain foreign jurisdictions, as more fully described herein. The Company’s income tax expense includes deferred income tax expense or benefit, which represents the change in net deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities as measured by the enacted tax rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. The Company evaluates the realizability of its deferred income tax assets and assesses the need for a valuation allowance for each jurisdiction for which it is subject to income tax. The realization of the deferred tax assets depends upon all positive and negative evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to permit the use of existing deferred tax assets.

The Company owns certain real estate assets which are subject to income tax in Canada. At December 31, 2017,2021, the net deferred tax assets related to the Company's Canadian operations totaled $11.7$22.5 million and resulting from the temporary differences between income for financial reporting purposes and taxable income relaterelating primarily to depreciation, capital improvements and straight-line rents. Due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is more

likely than not the Company will not generate sufficient taxable income to realize the net deferred tax assets related to the Company's Canadian operations as of December 31, 2021 totaling $22.5 million.

The Company has certain taxable REIT subsidiaries (TRSs), as permitted under the Code, through which it conducts certain business activities and are subject to federal and state income taxes on their net taxable income. OneThe Company uses three such TRS entities exclusively to hold the operational aspect of the taxabletraditional REIT subsidiaries holdslodging structure for four unconsolidated joint ventures located in China.Experiential lodging properties that are facilitated by management agreements with eligible independent contractors. The Company recordsreal estate for these investments using the equity method; therefore the income reportedare held by the Company is net of income tax paidREIT either directly or through an investment in a joint venture and leased to the Chinese taxing authorities. In addition, the company is liable for withholding taxes associated with the current and future repatriation of earningsrespective operations entity under a triple-net lease. Management has determined which of the China joint ventures. At December 31, 2017,real estate assets meets the amount of this future liability was approximately $125 thousand and represented withholding taxes on 2017 and 2016 earnings. Additionally, the Company paid $44 thousand in withholding taxes during the year ended December 31, 2017 that related to earnings repatriated during 2017.

On December 22, 2017, the President of the United States signed into law the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Tax Reform Act). The legislation significantly changes the U.S. tax law by, among other things, lowering corporate income tax rates and imposing a repatriation tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries. The Tax Reform Act permanently reduces the U.S. corporate income tax rate from a maximum of 35% to a flat 21% rate, effective January 1, 2018. The SEC staff issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No 118 to address the application of U.S. GAAP in situations when a registrant does not have the necessary information available, prepared, or analyzed in reasonable detail to complete the accounting for certain income tax effects of the Tax Reform Act. The Company has recognized the provisional tax impacts related to deemed repatriated earnings and included these amounts in its consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017. The ultimate impact may differ from these provisional amounts due to, among other things, additional analysis, changes in interpretations and assumptions the Company has made, additional regulatory guidance that may be issued, and actions the Company may take as a result of the Tax Reform Act. The accounting is expectedrequirements to be complete when the 2017 U.S. corporate income tax return is filedclassified as qualified lodging facilities as required in 2018. The impact of the mandatory repatriationa traditional REIT lodging structure and the revaluation of the deferred tax assets and liabilities is not significant to the Company's financial position or results of operations.recognizes revenue on these structures accordingly for REIT testing purposes.


At December 31, 2017,2021, the net deferred tax assets related to the Company's taxable REIT subsidiariesTRSs totaled $410 thousand and$8.8 million resulting from the temporary differences between income for financial reporting purposes and taxable income relate primarily to net operating loss carryovers.carryovers and pre-opening cost amortization. Due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is more likely than not the Company will not generate sufficient taxable income to realize the net deferred tax assets related to the Company's TRSs as of December 31, 2021 totaling $8.8 million.


As of December 31, 20172021 and 2016,2020, respectively, the Canadian operations and the Company's taxable REIT subsidiariesTRSs had deferred tax assets included in "Other assets" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets totaling approximately $16.0$35.9 million and $17.0$28.5 million, respectively, and deferred tax liabilities included in "Accounts payable and accrued liabilities" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets totaling approximately $3.9$4.6 million and $4.7 million.  Prior to January 1, 2016,$3.6 million, respectively. At December 31, 2021, the Company had a full valuation allowance had been recorded onoffsetting the net taxable REIT subsidiaries deferred tax assets as it was not more-likely-than not that the TRS operations would generate sufficient taxable income to utilize deferred tax assetsincluded in the future. For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company reassessed the need for a valuation allowance and reversed its valuation allowance associated with the net TRS deferred tax assets.accompanying consolidated balance sheets totaling $31.3 million.

The Company's effective tax rate for the years ended December 31, 2017, 20162021, 2020 and 20152019 was 0.9%2.1%, 0.2%13.5% and 0.2%1.5%, respectively. The differences between the income tax expense calculated at the statutory U.S. federal income tax rates of 35% and the actual income tax expense recorded for continuing operations is mostly attributable to the dividends paid deduction available for REITs.


Furthermore, the Company qualified as a REIT and distributed the necessary amount of taxable income such that no current U.S. federal income taxes were due for the years ended December 31, 2017, 20162021, 2020 and 2015.2019. Accordingly, no provision for current U.S. federal income taxes was recorded for any of those years. If the Company fails to qualify as a REIT in any taxable year, without the benefit of certain provisions, it will be subject to federal and state income taxes at regular corporate rates (including any applicable alternative minimum tax for years prior to January 1, 2018)2019) and may not be able to qualify as a REIT for four subsequent taxable years. Even if the Company qualifies for taxation as a REIT, the Company is subject to certain state and local taxes on its income and property, and federal income and excise taxes on its undistributed taxable income. Tax years 20142018 through 20172020 remain generally open to examination for U.S. federal income tax and state tax purposes and from 20132016 through 20172020 for Canadian income tax purposes. 


The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties as general and administrative expense. The Company did not recognize any interest and penalties in 20172021, 2020 or 2016. In 2015, approximately $65 thousand in interest and penalties related to a state audit were recognized.2019.

Derivative Instruments
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-012, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities. The update amended existing guidance in order to better align a company's financial reporting for hedging activities with the economic objectives of those activities. It requires the Company to disclose the effect of its hedging activities on its consolidated statements of income and eliminated the periodic measurement and recognition of hedging ineffectiveness. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early application of the guidance permitted. The Company elected to early adopt ASU No. 2017-012as of October 1, 2017. Early adoption had no impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

The Company has entered into certainuses derivative instruments to reduce exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and variable interest rates. The Company has established policies and procedures for risk assessment and the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instrument activities. These derivatives consist of foreign currency forward contracts, cross currency swaps and interest rate swaps.


The Company records all derivatives on the balance sheet at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rateforeign currency risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Derivatives may also be designated as hedges of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. For its net investment hedges that hedge the foreign currency exposure of its Canadian investments, the Company has elected to assess hedge effectiveness using a method based on changes in spot exchange rates and record the changes in the fair value amounts excluded from the assessment of effectiveness into earnings on a systematic and rational basis. The Company may

enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of its risk, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting. If hedge accounting is not applied, realized and unrealized gains or losses are reported in earnings.


The Company's policy is to measure the credit risk of its derivative financial instruments that are subject to master netting agreements on a net basis by counterparty portfolio.


Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In May 2014,March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers when it satisfies performance obligations.2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848). The ASU will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective.
In February 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-05, Other Income: Gains and Losses from the Derecognition of Nonfinancial Assets, which amends ASC Topic 610-20. ASU No. 2017-05 provides guidance on how entities recognize sales, including partial sales, of nonfinancial assets (and in-substance nonfinancial assets) to non-customers. ASU No. 2017-05 requires the seller to recognize a full gain or loss in a partial sale of nonfinancial assets, to the extent control is not retained. Any noncontrolling interest retained by the seller would, accordingly, be measured at fair value. Both ASU No. 2014-09 and 2017-05 will become effectivecontains practical expedients for the Company beginning with the first quarter of 2018. The standards permit the use of either the full retrospective method or the modified retrospective method. The Company has concluded it will use the modified retrospective method for transition under both standards, in which case the cumulative effect of applying the standards, if any, would be recognized at the date of initial application.
The Company has reviewed its revenue streams and determined the significant majority of its revenue is derived from lease revenue (which will be impacted upon adoption of the lease standard in 2019 discussed below) and mortgagereference rate reform related activities that impact debt, leases, derivatives and other financing income (which is not in scope of the revenue standard). In addition, the Company also has sales of real estate which have historically been primarily all-cash transactions with no contingencies and no future involvement in the operations. For its all-cash sale transactions, the Company does not anticipate a significant change to the timing of revenue recognition upon adoption of this new revenue standard.contracts. The Company had two property sale transactions that occurred in 2017 in which the Company received $12.1 million in mortgage notes receivable as consideration for the sale. The Company has evaluated these transactions under ASU 2014-09 and ASU 2017-05 and determined that these transactions do not qualify for sale treatment under the new revenue recognition guidance. Accordingly, the Company expects to record an adjustment in 2018 to reclassify these assets from mortgage notes receivable to rental properties on its consolidated balance sheet.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which amends existing accounting standards for lease accounting and is intended to improve financial reporting related to lease transactions. The ASU will require lessees to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by those leases. Lessor accounting will remain largely unchanged from current U.S. GAAP. However, ASU No. 2016-02 will impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures as the Company has certain operating land leases and other arrangements for which it is the lessee and will be required to recognize these arrangements on the financial statements. The ASU will become effective for the Company for interim and annual reporting periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. The Company expects to adopt the new standard on its effective date. The Company has assembled an implementation team that is assessing the effect that ASU No. 2016-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. Additionally, the Company is continuing to develop an implementation plan based on the results of the assessment and is in process of reviewing its land lease contracts.
The Company currently believes substantially all of its leases in which it is the lessor will continue to be classified as operating leases under the new standard. ASU No. 2016-02 specifies that payments for certain lease-related services, which are often included in lease arrangements, represent “non-lease” components that will become subject to the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts2020-04 is optional and may be elected over time as reference rate reform activities occur. During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company elected to apply the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with Customers, when ASU No. 2016-02 becomes effective.past presentation. On March 5, 2021, the Financial Conduct Authority ("FCA") announced that the USD LIBOR will no longer be published after June 30, 2023. At December 31, 2021, the Company had 10 agreements (including debt, derivative, mortgage note and lease agreements) that are indexed to LIBOR, of which 2 mature prior to June 30, 2023. The FASB recently clarified that only new or modified leases subsequent to adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 will require different accounting for “non-lease” components under the guidance in ASU No. 2014-09. On January 5, 2018, the FASB issued a proposed update which includes a practical expedient which would allow lessors not to separate “non-lease” components fromCompany is monitoring and evaluating the related lease components if both the timing and pattern of the revenue recognition are therisks with transitioning these contracts to a replacement index.

same for the “non-lease” components and including the “non-lease” components into a combined single lease component would not change the lease classification. The proposed update also includes a practical expedient which allows the lessors to use the effective date of ASU No. 2016-02 as the date of initial application, without restating comparative periods, and to recognize a cumulative effect adjustment as of the effective date, if necessary. A set of practical expedients for implementation, which must be elected as a package and for all leases, may also be elected. These practical expedients include relief from re-assessing lease classification at the adoption date for expired or existing leases. The Company has tentatively concluded that it will apply the practical expedients.
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which amends ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. The ASU changes the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and timing of when such losses are recorded. ASU No. 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, which amends ASC Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows. The ASU clarifies the treatment of several cash flow issues with the objective of reducing diversity in practice. ASU No. 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company has determined that the adoption of ASU 2016-15 will not impact its financial position or results of operations and there are no known changes in presentation as a result of adopting this standard.
In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Statement of Cash Flows, which amends ASC Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows. The ASU requires that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Entities will also be required to reconcile such total to amounts on the balance sheet and disclose the nature of the restrictions. ASU No. 2016-18 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company has determined that the adoption of this ASU will result in the Company including restricted cash and cash and cash equivalents on its Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

The Company reviewed these balances for impairment at measures expected credit losses on its mortgage notes and notes receivable on an individual basis over the related contractual term as its financial instruments do not have similar risk characteristics. The Company has not experienced historical losses on its mortgage note portfolio; therefore, the Company uses a forward-looking commercial real estate loss forecasting tool to estimate its expected credit losses. The loss forecasting tool is comprised of a probability of default model and a loss given default model that utilizes the Company’s loan specific inputs as well as selected forward looking macroeconomic variables and mean loss rates. Based on certain inputs, such as origination year, balance, interest rate as well as collateral value and borrower operating income, the model produces life of loan expected losses on a loan by loan basis.

The Company updates the model inputs at each reporting period to reflect, if applicable, any newly originated loans, changes to loan specific information on existing loans and determined that the estimated undiscounted future cash flows exceeded the carrying value of these properties.current macroeconomic conditions.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements on its LIBOR based borrowings. To accomplish this objective, the Company currently uses interest rate swaps as its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt or payment of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty which results in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate paymentsrecording net interest expense that is fixed over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.


As of During the year ended December 31, 2017,2021, the Company had twoterminated 4 of its interest rate swap agreements to fixin connection with the interest rate at 2.64% on $300.0 millionpayoff of borrowings under the related unsecured term loan facility from from July 6, 2017facility. These interest rate swaps had a combined notional amount of $400.0 million at termination and $3.2 million was reclassified into earnings as expense during the year ended December 31, 2021, as the forecasted future transactions were no longer probable.

At December 31, 2021, the Company had 1 interest rate swap agreement designated as a cash flow hedge of interest rate risk related to April 5, 2019.

Fixed rateNotional Amount (in millions)IndexMaturity
1.3925%$25.0 USD LIBORSeptember 30, 2024

The change in the fair value of interest rate derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) and is subsequently reclassified into earnings in the period that the hedged forecasted transaction affects earnings within the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged transaction. During the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016 and 2015, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt.


Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt. As of December 31, 2017,2021, the Company estimates that during the twelve months ending December 31 2018, $0.5, 2022, $0.2 million of losses will be reclassified from AOCI to interest expense.

The Company has certain financial instruments that are required to be measured under the FASB’s Fair Value Measurement guidance. The Company currently does not have any non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.


As a basis for considering market participant assumptions in fair value measurements, the FASB’s Fair Value Measurement guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market participant assumptions based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity (observable inputs that are classified within Levels 1 and 2 of the hierarchy) and the reporting entity’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions (unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy). Level 1 inputs use quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, which are typically based on an entity’s own assumptions, as there is little, if any, related market activity. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the asset or liability.


Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company uses interest rate swaps, foreign currency forwards and cross currency swaps to manage its interest rate and foreign currency risk. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves, foreign exchange rates, and implied volatilities. The fair valuesvalue of interest rate swaps areis determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts and the discounted expected variable cash payments. The variable cash payments are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves. The Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both its own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of its derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts, and guarantees. In conjunction with the FASB's fair value measurement guidance, the Company made an accounting policy election to measure the credit risk of its derivative financial instruments that are subject to master netting agreements on a net basis by counterparty portfolio.


Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives also use Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads, to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. As of December 31, 2017,2021, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation of its derivative positions and has determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of its derivatives and therefore, has classified its derivatives as Level 2 within the fair value reporting hierarchy.

The number of common shares issuable upon settlement of the performance shares granted during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020 will be based upon the Company's achievement level relative to the following performance measures at December 31, 2023 and 2022: 50% based upon the Company's Total Shareholder Return (TSR) relative to the TSRs of the Company's peer group companies, 25% based upon the Company's TSR relative to the TSRs of companies in the MSCI US REIT Index and 25% based upon the Company's Average Annual Growth in AFFO per share over the three-year performance period. The Company's achievement level relative to the performance measures is assigned a specific payout percentage which is multiplied by a target number of performance shares.

The performance shares based on relative TSR performance have market conditions and are valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model on the grant date, which resulted in a grant date fair value of approximately $6.6 million and $3.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The estimated fair value is amortized to expense over the three-year vesting period, which ends on December 31, 2023 and 2022 for performance shares granted in 2021 and 2020, respectively. The following assumptions were used in the Monte Carlo simulation for computing the grant date fair value of the performance shares with a market condition for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively: risk-free interest rate of 0.2% and 1.4%, volatility factors in the expected market price of the Company's common shares of 69% and 18% and an expected life of three years.

The performance shares based on growth in AFFO have a performance condition. The probability of achieving the performance condition is assessed at each reporting period. If it is deemed probable that the performance condition will be met, compensation cost will be recognized based on the closing price per share of the Company's common shares on the date of the grant multiplied by the number of awards expected to be earned. If it is deemed that it is not probable that the performance condition will be met, the Company will discontinue the recognition of compensation cost and any compensation cost previously recorded will be reversed. At December 31, 2021, achievement of the performance condition was deemed probable for the performance shares granted during the year ended December 31, 2021, with an expected payout percentage of 200%, which resulted in a grant date fair value of approximately $2.3 million. Achievement of the performance condition for the performance shares granted during the year ended December 31, 2020 was deemed not probable at December 31, 2021.

The performance shares accrue dividend equivalents which are paid only if common shares are issued upon settlement of the performance shares. During the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company accrued

cases, the ground lease sub-tenants have continued to pay the rent under these ground leases, however, 2 of these properties do not currently have sub-tenants. In the event the tenant fails to pay the ground lease rent or if the property does not have sub-tenants, the Company is primarily responsible for the payment, assuming the Company does not sell or re-tenant the property. As of December 31, 2021, the ground lease arrangements have remaining terms ranging from one year to 45 years. Most of these leases include one or more options to renew. The Company assesses these options using a threshold of reasonably certain, which also includes an assessment of the term of the Company's tenants' leases. For leases where renewal is reasonably certain, those option periods are included within the lease term and also the measurement of the operating lease right-of-use asset and liability. The ground lease arrangements do not contain any residual value guarantees or any material restrictions. As of December 31, 2021, the Company does not have any leases that have not commenced but that create significant rights and obligations.


The Company determines whether an arrangement is or includes a lease at contract inception. Operating lease right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date and initially measured based on the present value of lease payments over the defined lease term. As the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company used its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate was adjusted for collateral based on the information available at adoption or the commencement date. Inputs to the calculation of the Company's incremental borrowing rate include its senior notes and their option adjusted credit spreads over comparable U.S. Treasury rates, adjusted to a collateralized basis by estimating the credit spread improvement that would result from an upgrade of one ratings classification.

amended complaint. On January 5, 2017, the Westchester County Supreme Court denied the Company’s second motion to dismiss. Discovery is ongoing.

The Company has not determined that losses related to the remaining Westchester Action are probable. In light of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of litigation generally, the Company does not have sufficient information to determine the amount or range of reasonably possible loss with respect to these matters. The Company’s assessments are based on estimates and assumptions that have been deemed reasonable by management, but that may prove to be incomplete or inaccurate, and unanticipated events and circumstances may occur that might cause the Company to change those estimates and assumptions. The Company intends to vigorously defend the claims asserted against the Company and certain of its subsidiaries by the Cappelli Group and its affiliates, for which the Company believes it has meritorious defenses, but there can be no assurances as to the outcome of the claims and related litigation.

Early Childhood Education Tenant
During 2017, Children’s Learning Adventure USA, LLC (CLA Parent) and its subsidiaries (CLA) stopped making rent payments. As a result, the Company sent CLA notices of lease termination on October 12, 2017 for the following CLA properties: (i) Broomfield, Colorado, (ii) Ashburn, Virginia, (iii) West Chester, Ohio, (iv) Chanhassen, Minnesota, (v) Ellisville, Missouri, (vi) Farm Road-Las Vegas, Nevada, (vii) Fishers, Indiana, (viii) Tredyffrin, Pennsylvania, and (ix) Westerville, Ohio.

On December 18, 2017, ten subsidiaries of CLA Parent filed separate voluntary petitions for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Arizona (Jointly Administered under Case No. 2:17-bk-14851-BMW). The debtors in those cases include CLA Properties SPE, LLC, CLA Maple Grove, LLC, CLA Carmel, LLC, CLA West Chester, LLC, CLA One Loudoun, LLC, LLC, CLA Fishers, LLC, CLA Chanhassen, LLC, CLA Ellisville, LLC, CLA Farm, LLC, and CLA Westerville, LLC (collectively, the CLA Debtors). CLA Parent has not filed a petition for bankruptcy. The CLA Debtors include each of the Company's tenants to 24 out of our 25 CLA properties, including 21 operating properties, two partially completed properties and one unimproved land parcel. The only CLA tenant unaffected by the bankruptcy is CLA King of Prussia, LLC, which is the CLA tenant entity for an unimproved land parcel located in Tredyffrin, Pennsylvania.

CLA continues to negotiate a restructuring with third parties. The Company will continue to consider whether all or a portion of the Company's properties should be leased to other operators based on results of the restructuring process. Absent an acceptable restructuring, the Company's intention is to vigorously pursue the process of regaining possession of the properties with the goal of securing leases with one or more new tenants. On January 8, 2018, the Company filed with the Court motions seeking rent for the post-petition period beginning on December 18, 2017. The hearing for these motions has been scheduled for March 14, 2018. On January 8, 2018, the Company also filed with the Court motions seeking relief from the automatic stay seeking the right to terminate the remaining leases and evict the CLA Debtors from the properties. There can be no assurance as to the outcome or timing of such proceedings.

Not applicable.

Item 9A.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosures controls and procedures
As of the end of the period covered by this report,December 31, 2021, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based upon and as of the date of that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this report our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensureprovide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and forms, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Limitations on the effectiveness of controls
Our disclosure controls were designed to provide reasonable assurance that the controls and procedures would meet their objectives. Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls will prevent all errorserror and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the designed control objectives and management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusions of two or more people, or by management override of the control. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective, maturing control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Except for the enhancements to the Company's
Change in internal control over financial reporting in relation to our upcoming adoption of the new revenue recognition standard discussed below, therecontrols
There have not been any changes in the Company’sCompany's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year to which this report relates that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act. Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on the framework established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on our evaluation under the framework in Internal Control–Integrated Framework (2013), our management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2017.2021. KPMG LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, has issued a report on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, which is included in Item 8.


Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements, errors or fraud. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of or compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.


During 2017, we made enhancements to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting in relation to our upcoming adoption of the new revenue recognition standard effective in the first quarter of 2018. We implemented or modified internal controls to address the monitoring of the adoption process, the evaluation analysis used in determining in-scope transactions and related disclosures required for the new standard.
