UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements presented below have been prepared based on certain pro forma adjustments to the historical consolidated financial statements of Health Care REIT, Inc. (the “Company”) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010 and FC-GEN Acquisition Holding, LLC (“Acquisition Holding”) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010. The historical consolidated financial statements of the Company are contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. The historical consolidated financial statements of Acquisition Holding are included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 8-K.

     The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements give effect to (i) the acquisition by the Company of 100% of the equity interests in Acquisition Holding, which indirectly owns (1) 137 senior housing and care facilities (134 of fee simple and three pursuant to ground leases) and (2) the leasehold interests in and options to purchase seven senior housing and care facilities, for approximately $2.4 billion (collectively, the “Acquisition”) and (ii) the lease by the Company to Genesis Operations, LLC (“Tenant”) under which the Tenant operates the acquired facilities (the “Master Lease”). An affiliate of Tenant operates the seven leasehold interest facilities. Prior to closing, FC-GEN Operations Investment, LLC (“OpCo”) was a direct subsidiary of Acquisition Holding. Prior to the closing, Acquisition Holding contributed the assets, liabilities and equity interests relating to (i) the business of operating and managing senior housing and care facilities, (ii) joint venture entities and (iii) other ancillary businesses to OpCo and then distributed all of the equity interests in OpCo to FC-GEN Investment, LLC (“FC-GEN”). Tenant is a wholly-owned subsidiary of OpCo. All obligations under the Master Lease have been guaranteed by OpCo. In addition, in conjunction with the Acquisition, the Company has the option, during the initial 15-year term of the Master Lease and subject to certain restrictions, to acquire a 9.9% ownership interest in OpCo for a purchase price equal to $47 million (subject to certain adjustments). The Company expects to complete the acquisition of three additional senior housing and care facilities upon receipt of final regulatory approvals, which are currently in the process of being reviewed. Once acquired, each of these facilities will be added to the Master Lease, without any adjustment to the base rent and without payment of any additional consideration. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2010 has been prepared as if the Acquisition had occurred as of that date. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of income for the year ended December 31, 2010 has been prepared as if the Acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 2010. Such statements also give effect to the application of a portion of the net proceeds from recently consummated common stock, preferred stock and senior unsecured notes offerings undertaken by the Company in order to finance the Acquisition.

     The allocation of the purchase price of Acquisition Holding reflected in these unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements has been based upon preliminary estimates of the fair value of assets ultimately acquired and liabilities ultimately assumed. A final determination of the fair values of Acquisition Holding’s assets and liabilities will be completed after closing based on the actual valuation of the tangible and intangible assets and liabilities of Acquisition Holding that existed as of the closing date. Amounts preliminarily allocated to identifiable tangible and intangible assets and liabilities could change significantly from those used in the pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements presented below and could result in a material change in amortization of tangible and intangible assets and liabilities.

     In the opinion of the Company’s management, the pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements include all significant necessary adjustments that can be factually supported to reflect the effects of the Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are provided for informational purposes only. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements are not necessarily and should not be assumed to be an indication of the results that would have been achieved had the Acquisition been completed as of the dates indicated or that may be achieved in the future. The completion of the valuation, the allocation of the purchase price, the impact of ongoing integration activities, the timing of closing and other changes in Acquisition Holding tangible and intangible assets and liabilities that occured prior to closing could cause material differences in the information presented. Furthermore, the Company expects to apply its own methodologies and judgments in accounting for the assets and liabilities acquired in the Acquisition, which may differ from those reflected in Acquisition Holding’s historical consolidated financial statements and the pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements.

HEALTH CARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the respective historical financial statements and the notes thereto of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2010 and of Acquisition Holding as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010 that are included in this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Real property not acquired:(1)
Land and land improvements		$	(12,539	)
Buildings and improvements			(350,586	)
Construction in progress			(5,219	)
Accumulated depreciation and amortization			78,656
Total real property not acquired			(289,688	)
Fair value adjustments:(2)
Land and land improvements			(97,737	)
Buildings and improvements			852,136
Construction in progress			(6,631	)
Accumulated depreciation and amortization			201,066
Total real property fair value adjustments			948,834
Net real property asset adjustments		$	659,146

(1)		See Note C.
(2)		Acquisition Holding’s real property assets have been adjusted to their preliminary estimated fair values and the related historical balances of accumulated depreciation and construction in progress are eliminated when in-service real property assets are recorded at fair value.

(E)		Adjustments represent the deferral of $10,886,000 of fees associated with the issuance of senior unsecured notes (see Note J) offset by the elimination of Acquisition Holding’s deferred loan costs of $10,800,000.
(F)		Adjustments represent elimination of deferred tax assets and liabilities of Acquisition Holding. As a result of the Acquisition, we are subject to corporate level taxes for any asset acquired in the Acquisition and subsequently sold for a period of 10 years subsequent to closing (“built-in gains tax”). The amount of income potentially subject to this special corporate level tax is generally equal to (i) the excess of the fair value of the asset as of the date of closing over its adjusted tax basis as of the date of closing, or (ii) the actual amount of gain, whichever of (i) and (ii) is lower. We have not recorded a deferred tax liability as a result of the potential built-in gains tax based on our intentions with respect to such assets and available tax planning strategies. Additionally, at the closing of the Acquisition, 100% of the real estate of Acquisition Holding was acquired by a subsidiary of the Company; accordingly, assuming the Acquisition was effective January 1, 2010, all of the amounts of the income tax expense would then be eliminated.

HEALTH CARE REIT, INC.
NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(G)		The Company funded $2,400,000,000 of cash consideration and other associated costs of the Acquisition primarily through the proceeds of the completed offerings of common stock and preferred stock (see Note N), cash on hand and the completed offering of senior unsecured notes (see Note J). Approximately $1,670,563 of Acquisition Holding’s long-term debt was settled or repaid at closing.
(H)		At closing, the Company assumed the existing leases at seven properties. Acquisition Holding has historically recognized these leases as capital leases due to bargain purchase options. The Company has adjusted the capital lease obligations to estimated fair values.
(I)		Adjustment to the total members’ equity represents the elimination of such balance of Acquisition Holding.
(J)		Adjustments represent the issuance and sale of $1,400,000,000 of senior unsecured notes due 2016-2041 with a weighted-average interest rate of 5.18% and the application of the net proceeds therefrom of $1,380,000,000. The notes issued are valued as follows (in thousands):

Face amount		$	1,400,000
Offering price(1)			99.349	%
Gross value of notes issued			1,390,886
Less: Underwriting discounts			(9,800	)
Less: Debt issuance costs			(1,086	)
Total net proceeds		$	1,380,000
The application of the net proceeds is as follows (in thousands):
Cash consideration for the Acquisition		$	345,500
Repayment of unsecured line of credit arrangement			300,000
Unallocated cash and cash equivalents(2)			734,500
Total net proceeds		$	1,380,000

(1)		Represents the weighted-average public offering price.
(2)		The Company intends to use any unallocated proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, including investing in health care and senior housing properties.

(K)		Immediately after the closing of the Acquisition, a subsidiary of the Company began leasing the acquired facilities to Tenant pursuant to the Master Lease. In addition to rent, the triple net Master Lease requires Tenant to pay all operating costs, utilities, real estate taxes, insurance, building repairs, maintenance costs and all obligations under the ground leases. All obligations under the Master Lease have been guaranteed by OpCo. The initial term is fifteen years. Tenant has one option to renew for an additional term of fifteen years. The Master Lease provides that the base rent for the first year is $198,000,000 and will increase at least 1.75% but no more than 3.50% (subject to CPI changes) for each of the years two through six during the initial term and at least 1.50% but no more than 3.00% per year thereafter (subject to CPI changes). The adjustment to rental income represents the estimated straight-line rent the Company expects to recognize based on the minimum rent escalators during the initial term.
(L)		Adjustments to interest expense are as follows (in thousands):

Elimination of Acquisition Holding’s interest expense		$	(129,972	)
Interest expense associated with senior unsecured notes (Note J)			72,000
Amortization of deferred fees associated with senior unsecured notes (Note J)			1,100
Interest expense on capital lease obligations (Note H)			3,978
Total		$	(52,894	)

(M)

Adjustments to depreciation and amortization represent the elimination of Acquisition Holding’s historical depreciation ($61,692,000) offset by depreciation expense as a result of the recording of Acquisition Holding’s real property at its estimated fair value ($63,533,000). Estimated useful lives of 40 years and 15 years were used to compute depreciation for buildings and improvements, respectively, on a straight-line basis.
