• In conjunction with WELL's proposed acquisition of MyHealth Partners Inc. ("MyHealth"), the Royal Bank of Canada ("RBC") along with a syndicate of lenders have provided a commitment for C$140 million senior secured credit facilities and an additional C$60 million uncommitted accordion feature.
• This debt financing will be used to fund WELL's proposed acquisition of MyHealth in addition to future acquisitions. The debt is secured exclusively by the assets of MyHealth.

VANCOUVER, BC, June 8, 2021 /CNW/ - WELL Health Technologies Corp. (TSX: WELL) ("WELL" or the "Company"), a company focused on consolidating and modernizing clinical and digital assets within the healthcare sector, is pleased to report that it has obtained a debt financing commitment of C$140 million and an additional C$60 million uncommitted accordion for further expansion potential, provided by RBC, the Bank of Montreal, HSBC Bank Canada, The Toronto-Dominion Bank, ICICI Bank Canada and Laurentian Bank of Canada (collectively the "Lenders") in support of its proposed acquisition of MyHealth Partners Inc. ("MyHealth"). RBC acted as the Lead Arranger, Sole Bookrunner, and Administrative Agent on the financing.

Hamed Shahbazi, Chairman and CEO of WELL commented, "We are grateful for the support we are receiving from RBC and the impressive list of leading banks that are participating in the lending syndicate.  We believe this support is not only reflective of their confidence in the proposed acquisition of MyHealth, but also in the acquistive growth potential of MyHealth once the acquisition is completed.  MyHealth has successfully completed 25 acquisition transactions for a combined 33 independent clinics over the past eight years. We are committed to continuing to support MyHealth's accretive acquisition program, adding another catalyst engine to WELL's future growth potential." 

The committed credit facilities (the "Credit Facilities") will comprise a revolving facility in the amount of C$90 million and a term facility in the amount of C$50 million.  The Lenders have also provided WELL with an uncommitted accordion facility in the amount of C$60 million to help finance future acquisitions by WELL and other opportunities. The Credit Faciilties will mature in four years  and carry a floating interest rate based on market terms that is set to reduce as MyHealth's leverage decreases. The terms of the Credit Faciilties are consistent with similar syndicated credit arrangements across Canada and contain customary provisions with respect to mandatory repayments and amortization, financial and other covenants and the supporting security structure. Provision of the Credit Facilities will be subject to, amongst other items, settlement of a credit agreement and delivery and satisfaction of customary closing conditions by WELL to the Lenders.

Eva Fong, CFO of WELL adds, "We are delighted to bring on such a strong calibre of institutions into this debt financing. The Company is extremely well capitalized to execute on its future acquisition growth plans with this credit facility in addition to WELL's cash on hand and CRH Medical's previously announced upsized US$300 million credit facility provided by a syndicate of  lenders which include some of the largest financial institutions in the world."
