Summary of Credit Tenant Lease Structure
Generally viewed as a bond rather than a real estate loan
Tenant’s credit is the primary underwriting criteria, not the underlying real estate
Tenants are investment grade with the published credit ratings of BBB- / Baa3 or better by Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s or Fitch
Leases will have no landlord responsibilities (triple-net / bondable leases)
Depending upon the asset, lease can be structured as an operating or capital lease
All risks, except credit, are mitigated through insurance policies
Casualty Gap Insurance
Condemnation Insurance
Ability to provide up to 105% financing
Lease terms may be 15 – 30 years, with renewal rights and/or purchase options
Typical lenders are bond departments of insurance companies or pension funds
Always a direct pay from the Tenant
Always a stand-alone building, with a separate tax parcel

Why a CTL?
Transaction can be funded in 90 – 120 days
150 – 300 basis points less expensive than a traditional sale/leaseback or build-to-suit
Zero cash flow to Owner
Assets can be fully monetized at, or above, market values
Tenant can have purchase option at the end of lease term at a fraction of then market value
Transaction is priced from an index tracking the 10-year treasury, at an equivalent of 150 – 200 basis points above current treasury depending on Tenant’s credit rating
Residual Value Insurance policy allows up to 42% of asset value to be unamortized over lease term
Smaller assets can be bundled into one master lease
