New York, New York

Tripp Levy PLLC, a leading national securities and shareholder rights law firm, announces that it is investigating the acquisition of American Realty Capital Healthcare Trust, Inc. (NASDAQ: HCT) (“ARC” or the “Company”). It was announced that Ventas Inc. has entered into an agreement to acquire ARC for $2.6 billion in a cash and stock transaction. ARC shareholders will have the option to receive 0.1688 Ventas share or $11.33 per share in cash for each ARC share they own.

The investigation concerns whether the board of directors and senior management of ARC engaged in a full and fair auction and process to insure that shareholders obtained the maximum value for their shares, whether the merger price is unfairly low and whether there were any conflicts of interest on the part of management and the board in selling the company.
