Debt Obligations

Unsecured Credit Facility. We had an unsecured credit agreement (the “Original Credit Agreement”) that provided for an aggregate commitment of the lenders of up to $500,000,000 comprising of a $400,000,000 revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Line of Credit”) and two $50,000,000 term loans (the “Term Loans”). The Term Loans mature on November 19, 2025 and November 19, 2026. The Revolving Line of Credit had a maturity date of November 19, 2025 and provided a one-year extension option at our discretion, subject to customary conditions. During the first quarter of 2024, we entered into an amendment to the Original Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) to accelerate our one-year extension option notice to January 4, 2024. Concurrently, we exercised our option to extend the maturity date to November 19, 2026. Other material terms of the Original Credit Agreement remained unchanged. The Credit Agreement permitted us to request increases to the Revolving Line of Credit and Term Loans commitments up to a total of $1,000,000,000 (the “Accordion”). As permitted under the terms of the Credit Agreement, we exercised $25,000,000 of the available $500,000,000 Accordion feature of the Revolving Line of Credit, effective September 30, 2024. Accordingly, the aggregate commitment of the lenders under the Credit Agreement increased to $525,000,000, with $475,000,000 remaining available under the Accordion. The exercise of the Accordion did not materially change any other term or condition of the Credit Agreement, including its maturity date or covenant requirements.

Based on our leverage at September 30, 2024, the facility provides for interest annually at Adjusted SOFR plus 110 basis points and a facility fee of 15 basis points and the Term Loans provide for interest annually at Adjusted SOFR plus 125 basis points.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements. In connection with entering into the Term Loans described above, we entered into two receive variable/pay fixed interest rate swap agreements (the “Interest Rate Swaps”) with maturities of November 19, 2025 and November 19, 2026, respectively, that will effectively lock-in the forecasted interest payments on the Term Loans’ borrowings over their four and five year terms of the loans. The Interest Rate Swaps are considered cash flow hedges and are recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value in Prepaid expenses and other assets, with cumulative changes in the fair value of these instruments recognized in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on our Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we recorded a decrease of $2,326,000 and $2,471,000 in fair value of Interest Rate Swaps, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, we recorded an increase of $28,000 and a decrease of $123,000 in fair value of Interest Rate Swaps, respectively.

Information regarding our interest rate swaps measured at fair value, which are classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy is presented below (dollar amounts in thousands):

Senior Unsecured Notes. We have senior unsecured notes held by institutional investors with interest rates ranging from 3.66% to 4.5%. The senior unsecured notes mature between 2026 and 2033.

The senior unsecured notes and the Credit Agreement, including the Revolving Line of Credit and the Term Loans, contain financial covenants, which are measured quarterly, that require us to maintain, among other things:

a ratio of total indebtedness to total asset value not greater than 0.6 to 1.0;

a ratio of secured debt to total asset value not greater than 0.35 to 1.0;

a ratio of unsecured debt to the value of the unencumbered asset value not greater than 0.6 to 1.0; and
a ratio of EBITDA, as calculated in the debt obligation, to fixed charges not less than 1.50 to 1.0.

At September 30, 2024, we were in compliance with all applicable financial covenants. These debt obligations also contain additional customary covenants and events of default that are subject to a number of important and significant limitations, qualifications and exceptions.
