Current year activity On February 1, 2018, the Company paid in full the debt secured by its Rincon Center property, which was due to mature in May 2018. On March 13, 2018, the operating partnership entered into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as defined below) with various financial institutions. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement modifies the operating partnership’s unsecured revolving credit facility and its term loans as discussed under the Term Loan and Credit Facility section below. Indebtedness The Company presents its financial statements on a consolidated basis. Notwithstanding such presentation, except to the extent expressly indicated, such as in the case of the project financing for Sunset Gower Studios and Sunset Bronson Studios, the Company’s separate property-owning subsidiaries are not obligors of the debt of their respective affiliates and each property-owning subsidiary’s separate liabilities do not constitute obligations of its respective affiliates. Loan agreements include events of default that the Company believes are usual for loan and transactions of this type. As of the date of this filing, there have been no events of default associated with the Company’s loans.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for (i) the increase of the operating partnership’s unsecured revolving credit facility to $600.0 million and the extension of the term to March 13, 2022 and (ii) term loans in amount and tenor equal to the term loans outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreements ($300.0 million term loan A maturing April 1, 2020, $350.0 million term loan B maturing April 1, 2022, $75.0 million term loan C maturing November 17, 2020 and $125.0 million term loan D maturing November 17, 2022).
