CHC Realty Capital Corp. Announces Agreement to Acquire Sudbury Student Housing Property

CHC Realty Capital Corp. ("CHC" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:CHC) is pleased
to announce that it has entered into an assignment and assumption agreement (the
"Assignment Agreement") with CHC Realty Investments Inc. ("CHC Investments"), a
company owned by Mark Hansen, President, CEO and a director of the Company and
Craig Smith, a director of the Company, to acquire a student housing property
located in Sudbury, Ontario (the "Property") from 979101 Ontario Limited (the
"Vendor"), an arm's length party to CHC and CHC Investments.


The Property is a newly repurposed student housing property situated at 50
Lisgar Street in downtown Sudbury, across the street from the city's main bus
terminal and less than 300 meters away from Laurentian University's School of
Architecture and approximately 4.7 km from the University's main Sudbury Campus.
The Property is a six storey former office building originally constructed
around 1970 that was converted to a student residence with main floor commercial
space in 2013. The building contains a total area of approximately 28,965 sq.
ft. and is comprised of 70 beds in 50 student apartments on the upper floors and
approximately 4,500 sq. ft. of ground floor commercial space.


The purchase price for the Property is $5.5 million, subject to adjustments,
which CHC intends to satisfy through mortgage financing on the Property in the
principal amount of $3.5 million and the payment to the Vendor of the balance of
the purchase price of $2.0 million in cash from CHC's existing funds.


Under the Assignment Agreement, the Company has taken an assignment of all
rights and benefits and assumed all obligations of CHC Investments, as
purchaser, in respect of an agreement of purchase and sale (the "Purchase
Agreement") between CHC Investments as purchaser and the Vendor dated February
11, 2014. CHC Investments has not been paid any fees or received any
consideration for the assignment of the Purchase Agreement to the Company. CHC
Investments paid a $200,000 deposit (the "Deposit") to the Vendor upon execution
of the Purchase Agreement, which is now non-refundable deposit as a result of
the satisfaction of the purchaser's due diligence condition in respect of the
acquisition. Under the terms of the Assignment Agreement, the Deposit will be
repaid by the Company to CHC Investments, without interest, fees or other
consideration. In addition to the Deposit paid by CHC Investments, CHC has paid
the Vendor an additional $300,000 non-refundable deposit as a result of the
satisfaction of the purchaser's due diligence condition in respect of the
acquisition.


Under the Purchase Agreement, the Vendor has agreed to pay to the Company an
income guarantee on monthly gross rental income from the residential component
of the Property based on 95% occupancy for a period of six months after the
closing date. In addition, the Vendor has agreed to pay to the Company certain
amounts under a head lease for any commercial space which is vacant on closing.


The acquisition of the Property is subject to receipt of all necessary
regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSXV. In addition, the
acquisition of the Property is subject to certain closing conditions, including
the completion of financing arrangements with the mortgage lender and the
receipt of a final occupancy permit for the building from government authorities
by no later than December 1, 2014. The acquisition of the Property is expected
to close within twenty business days from the receipt of the final occupancy
permit or waiver of such condition by the Company.


In connection with the acquisition of the Property, CHC plans to enter into
property management arrangements with a third party property management service
provider pursuant to which it will become the property manager of the Property,
in consideration for which it will receive a fee calculated on the basis of the
Property's aggregate gross revenue to be negotiated.
