While COPT is not directly obligated by any debt, it has guaranteed COPLP’s Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan Facility and Unsecured Senior Notes. Certain of our debt instruments require that we comply with a number of restrictive financial covenants, including maximum leverage ratio, unencumbered leverage ratio, minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, minimum unencumbered interest coverage ratio, minimum debt service and maximum secured indebtedness ratio. In addition, the terms of some of COPLP’s debt may limit its ability to make certain types of payments and other distributions to COPT in the event of default or when such payments or distributions may prompt failure of debt covenants, unless such distributions are required to maintain COPT’s qualification as a REIT. As of December 31, 2022, we were compliant with these financial covenants. Our debt matures on the following schedule (in thousands):

Revolving Credit Facility On October 26, 2022, we entered into a credit agreement with a group of lenders for an unsecured revolving credit facility with a lender commitment of $600.0 million that replaced our existing unsecured revolving credit facility (the prior facility and new facility are referred to collectively herein as our “Revolving Credit Facility”). The facility matures on October 26, 2026, with the ability for us to extend such maturity by two six-month periods at our option, provided that there is no default under the facility and we pay an extension fee of 0.0625% of the total availability under the facility for each extension period. The interest rate on the facility is based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a SOFR index adjustment of 0.10% plus 0.725% to 1.400%, as determined by the credit ratings assigned to COPLP by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or Fitch Ratings Ltd. (collectively, the “Ratings Agencies”). The facility also carries a quarterly fee that is based on the lenders’ commitment under the facility multiplied by a per annum rate of 0.125% to 0.300%, as determined by the credit ratings assigned to COPLP by the Ratings Agencies. As of December 31, 2022, the maximum borrowing capacity under this facility totaled $600.0 million, of which $389.0 million was available. Weighted average borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility totaled $202.8 million in 2022 and $135.8 million in 2021. The weighted average interest rate on our Revolving Credit Facility was 3.31% in 2022 and 1.18% in 2021. Term Loan Facilities The credit agreement with a group of lenders entered into on October 26, 2022 discussed above provided for a $125.0 million unsecured term loan with an interest rate based on SOFR plus a SOFR index adjustment of 0.10% plus 0.850% to 1.700%, as determined by the credit ratings assigned to COPLP by the Ratings Agencies. This term loan facility matures on January 30, 2026, with the ability for us to extend such maturity by two 12-month periods at our option, provided that there is no default under the facility and we pay an extension fee of 0.125% of the outstanding loan balance for each extension period. In addition to the term loan discussed above, we also had a term loan that we amended in 2020 to increase the loan amount by $150.0 million for a balance outstanding of $400.0 million. We repaid $100.0 million of this loan in 2021 and the remaining $300.0 million in 2022. Unsecured Senior Notes During 2020 and 2021, we issued the following unsecured senior notes: •$400.0 million of 2.25% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2.25% Notes”) at an initial offering price of 99.42% of their face value on September 17, 2020, resulting in proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts, but before other offering expenses, of $395.3 million. The notes mature on March 15, 2026; •$600.0 million of 2.75% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “2.75% Notes”) at an initial offering price of 98.95% of their face value on March 11, 2021, resulting in proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts, but before other offering expenses, of $589.8 million. The notes mature on April 15, 2031; •$400.0 million of 2.00% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2.00% Notes”) at an initial offering price of 99.97% of their face value on August 11, 2021, resulting in proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts, but before other offering expenses, of $397.4 million. The notes mature on January 15, 2029; and •$400.0 million of 2.90% Senior Notes due 2033 (the “2.90% Notes”) at an initial offering price of 99.53% of their face value on November 17, 2021, resulting in proceeds, after deducting underwriting discounts, but before other offering expenses, of $395.4 million. The notes mature on December 1, 2033. We may redeem our unsecured senior notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at our option, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (1) the aggregate principal amount of the notes being redeemed or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption) discounted to its present value, on a semi-annual basis at an adjusted treasury rate plus a spread (35 basis points for the 2.25% Notes, 25 basis points for the 2.75% Notes, 20 basis points for the 2.00% Notes and 25 basis points for the 2.90% Notes), plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption. However, in each case, if this redemption occurs on or after a defined date (February 15, 2026 for the 2.25% Notes, January 15, 2031 for the 2.75% Notes, November 15, 2028 for the 2.00% Notes and September 1, 2033 for the 2.90% Notes), the redemption price will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the applicable redemption date. These notes are unconditionally guaranteed by COPT. During 2020 and 2021, we purchased or redeemed the following unsecured senior notes: •purchased pursuant to a tender offer $122.9 million of our 3.70% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “3.70% Notes”) on September 17, 2020 for $126.0 million, plus accrued interest; and redeemed the remaining $177.1 million of the 3.70% Notes on October 19, 2020 for $180.9 million plus accrued interest. In connection with this purchase and redemption, we recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $7.3 million in 2020; •purchased pursuant to tender offers $184.4 million of 3.60% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “3.60% Notes”) for $196.7 million and $145.6 million of 5.25% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “5.25% Notes”) for $164.7 million, plus accrued interest effective March 11, 2021; and on April 12, 2021, redeemed the remaining $165.6 million of 3.60% Notes for $176.3 million and $104.4 million of 5.25% Notes for $117.7 million, plus accrued interest.
