Partners REIT Announces Refinancing of Three Properties

BARRIE, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Feb 17, 2015) - Partners Real Estate Investment Trust ("Partners" or the "REIT") (TSX:PAR.UN) is pleased to announce the refinancing of three of the REIT's properties.

The three properties are located in Selkirk, Steinbach, and Winnipeg, Manitoba. Each of the properties is a free standing location anchored by a Shoppers Drug Mart.

These refinancings will increase the amount of capital available for funding improvements across the REIT's property portfolio, in addition to addressing a maturing mortgage at one of the properties. The refinancings will consist of first mortgages that will amount to an aggregate of $5.6 million, and will provide the REIT with $4.1 million in additional liquidity to fund previously identified capital investments with high expected returns on investment.

These first mortgages carry an average weighted interest rate of 2.88% and an average term to maturity of 5.5 years. These financings were all originated by CMLS Financial Ltd.
