 ------------------------------------ (1) Cash available for distribution is a non-GAAP measure and is not intended to be representative of cash flow or results of operations determined in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, Medical Facilities provides a reconciliation of cash available for distributions to reported cash flow from operations in the Corporation's MD&A. Investors are cautioned that cash available for distribution, as calculated by Medical Facilities, is unlikely to be comparable to similar measures used by other issuers.
