Our secured debt instruments generally feature either monthly interest and principal or monthly interest-only payments with balloon payments due at maturity. For purposes of classification of the above table, variable rate debt with a derivative financial instrument designated as a cash flow hedge is deemed as fixed rate debt due to the Company having effectively established a fixed interest rate for the underlying debt instrument. As of June 30, 2015, secured debt encumbered $2.2 billion or 26.6% of UDR’s total real estate owned based upon gross book value ($6.2 billion or 73.4% of UDR’s real estate owned based on gross book value is unencumbered).
(a) At June 30, 2015, fixed rate mortgage notes payable are generally due in monthly installments of principal and interest and mature at various dates from December 2015 through May 2019 and carry interest rates ranging from 3.43% to 6.16%.
The Company will from time to time acquire properties subject to fixed rate debt instruments. In those situations, the Company records the debt at its estimated fair value and amortizes any difference between the fair value and par to interest expense over the life of the underlying debt instrument. The Company had a reduction to interest expense based on the amortization of the fair market adjustment of debt assumed in the acquisition of properties of $1.3 million and $1.2 million during the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, and $2.4 million and $2.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively. The unamortized fair market adjustment was a net premium of $5.7 million and $6.7 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively.
(b) UDR has three secured credit facilities with Fannie Mae with an aggregate commitment of $815.7 million at June 30, 2015. The Fannie Mae credit facilities mature at various dates from May 2017 through July 2023 and bear interest at floating and fixed rates. At June 30, 2015, $566.3 million of the outstanding balance was fixed and had a weighted average interest rate of 5.12% and the remaining balance of $249.4 million had a weighted average variable interest rate of 1.63%.

(c) The variable rate mortgage notes payable that secure tax-exempt housing bond issues mature in August 2019 and March 2032. Interest on these notes is payable in monthly installments. The variable rate mortgage notes have interest rates of 0.84% and 0.85% as of June 30, 2015.

(d) As of June 30, 2015, the Company has a $900 million unsecured revolving credit facility that matures in December 2017. The credit facility has a six month extension option and contains an accordion feature that allows us to increase the facility to $1.45 billion. Based on the Company’s current credit rating, the credit facility carries an interest rate equal to LIBOR plus a spread of 100 basis points and a facility fee of 15 basis points.
