[1] | The interest rates on these unsecured term loans are comprised of LIBOR plus a margin which is subject to a pricing grid for changes in the Company's coverage ratings. The Company entered into interest rate swap agreements (further described in Note 13) to convert the loans' LIBOR rates to effectively fixed interest rates. The interest rates in the table above are the effectively fixed interest rates for the loans, including the effects of the interest rate swaps, as of December 31, 2020.
[2] | During 2019, the Company executed a collateral release for World Houston 5; this property was sold during 2019 and is no longer considered to be collateral securing this loan.
[3] | These loans have a fixed interest rate or an effectively fixed interest rate due to interest rate swaps.
