Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility

In May 2019, MAALP entered into a $1.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks led by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, or Wells Fargo, and fifteen other banks, which is referred to as the Credit Facility.  The Credit Facility replaced MAALP’s previous unsecured revolving credit facility, and it includes an expansion option up to $1.5 billion.  The Credit Facility bears an interest rate of the London Interbank Offered Rate, or LIBOR, plus a spread of 0.75% to 1.45% based on an investment grade pricing grid. The Credit Facility matures in May 2023 with an option to extend for two additional six-month periods.  As of December 31, 2019, MAALP had no balance outstanding under the Credit Facility, while $2.7 million of capacity was being used to support outstanding letters of credit.

Unsecured Commercial Paper

In May 2019, MAALP established an unsecured commercial paper program whereby MAALP may issue unsecured commercial paper notes with varying maturities not to exceed 397 days up to a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding of $500.0 million.  As of December 31, 2019, MAALP had $70.0 million outstanding under the commercial paper program with a weighted average interest rate of 2.05% and a weighted average maturity of eight days.

Senior Unsecured Notes

As of December 31, 2019, MAALP had $3.3 billion in principal amount of publicly issued senior unsecured notes and $222.0 million of privately placed senior unsecured notes outstanding.  The senior unsecured notes had maturities at issuance ranging from ten to twelve years, with an average of 6.6 years remaining until maturity as of December 31, 2019.

In March 2019, MAALP publicly issued $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes, maturing March 2029 with a coupon rate of 3.950% per annum, or the Initial 2029 Notes.  The purchase price paid by the purchasers was 99.720% of the principal amount.  The Initial 2029 Notes are general unsecured senior obligations of MAALP and rank equally in right of payment with all other senior unsecured indebtedness of MAALP.  Interest on the Initial 2029 Notes is payable on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on September 15, 2019.  The net proceeds of the offering, after deducting the original issue discount, underwriting commissions and expenses of approximately $2.8 million, were $297.2 million.  The Initial 2029 Notes have been reflected net of discount and debt issuance costs in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2019.  In connection with the issuance of the Initial 2029 Notes, MAALP cash settled $300.0 million in forward interest rate swap agreements, entered into during 2018 to effectively lock the interest rate on the planned transaction, resulting in an effective interest rate of 4.240% over the ten year life of the Initial 2029 Notes.

In August 2019, MAALP publicly issued an additional $250.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured, maturing March 2029 with a coupon rate of 3.950% per annum, or the Additional 2029 Notes.  The purchase price paid by the purchasers of the Additional Notes was 107.827% of the principal amount. The Additional 2029 Notes were issued under the indenture and the supplemental indenture pursuant to which MAALP issued the Initial 2029 Notes in March 2019.  The Additional 2029 Notes are treated as a single series of securities with the Initial 2029 Notes and have the same CUSIP number as, and are fungible with, the Initial 2029 Notes.  The net proceeds of the offering, after considering the original issue premium, cash received for interest due but not accrued, underwriting commissions and expenses totaling a net amount of approximately $22.1 million, were $272.1 million. The Additional 2029 Notes have an effective interest rate of 2.985% and have been reflected net of premium and debt issuance costs in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2019.

In November 2019, MAALP publicly issued $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes, maturing March 2030 with a coupon rate of 2.750% per annum, or the 2030 Notes.  The purchase price paid by the purchasers was 99.762% of the principal amount.  The 2030 Notes are general unsecured senior obligations of MAALP and rank equally in right of payment with all other senior unsecured indebtedness of MAALP.  Interest on the 2030 Notes is payable on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on March 15, 2020.  The net proceeds of the offering, after deducting the original issue discount, underwriting commissions and expenses of approximately $2.7 million, were $297.3 million.  The 2030 Notes have been reflected net of discount and debt issuance costs in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2019.  In connection with the issuance of the 2030 Notes, MAALP cash settled $150.0 million in forward interest rate swap agreements, entered into during the first half of 2019 to effectively lock the interest rate on the planned transaction, resulting in an effective interest rate of 3.065% over the ten year life of the 2030 Notes.
