Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - September 1, 2026) - Vital Infrastructure Property Trust (TSX: VITL.UN) ("Vital Infrastructure" or the "REIT") today announced that it has entered into a $500 million senior unsecured corporate credit facility maturing in August 2031 (the "Unsecured Credit Facility").

The Unsecured Credit Facility was arranged through a syndicate of three banks, with RBC Capital Markets acting as Administrative Agent and Sole Lead Arranger, and RBC Capital Markets, The Bank of Nova Scotia, and National Bank of Canada acting as Joint Bookrunners. At closing, the REIT's unencumbered asset pool for purposes of the Unsecured Credit Facility totaled $2.1 billion. The Unsecured Credit Facility replaces the REIT's previous $370 million secured credit facility.

The transition to an Unsecured Credit Facility represents an important milestone in the REIT's capital management strategy, enhancing financial flexibility, strengthening its liquidity position and extending its debt maturity profile. The increased capacity and flexibility provided by the Unsecured Credit Facility support the REIT's strategic priorities, including pursuing acquisition opportunities and executing disciplined capital allocation initiatives.

"Obtaining an Unsecured Credit Facility is a testament to the REIT's disciplined capital management over the past two years, the strength of Vital Infrastructure's diversified healthcare infrastructure portfolio and the continued support of our banking partners," said Zach Vaughan, Chief Executive Officer of Vital Infrastructure. "The increased capacity and enhanced flexibility position us well to pursue growth opportunities while continuing to build long-term value for our unitholders."
