We have a $1,000,000 revolving credit facility that is available for general business purposes, including acquisitions. The maturity date of our revolving credit facility is January 15, 2022, and, subject to the payment of an extension fee and meeting other conditions, we have the option to extend the maturity date of the facility for an additional year. Our revolving credit facility provides that we can borrow, repay and re-borrow funds available under our revolving credit facility until maturity, and no principal repayment is due until maturity. Our revolving credit facility requires annual interest to be paid on borrowings at the rate of LIBOR plus a premium of 120 basis points per annum, and a facility fee of 25 basis points per annum on the total amount of lending commitments under the facility. The interest rate premium and facility fee are each subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings. The facility also includes a feature pursuant to which in certain circumstances maximum borrowings under the facility may be increased to up to $2,000,000. As of December 31, 2018, the annual interest rate payable on borrowings under our revolving credit facility was 3.6%. The weighted average annual interest rates for borrowings under our revolving credit facility were 3.0%, 2.4% and 1.8% for the years ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, respectively. As of December 31, 2018, we had $139,000 outstanding and $861,000 available for borrowing, and as of February 27, 2019, we had $238,000 outstanding and $762,000 available for borrowing under our revolving credit facility.

This term loan includes an accordion feature under which maximum borrowings may be increased to up to $400,000 in certain circumstances. Our revolving credit facility and term loan agreements and our senior unsecured notes indentures and their supplements provide for acceleration of payment of all amounts due thereunder upon the occurrence and continuation of certain events of default, such as, in the case of our revolving credit facility and term loan agreements, a change of control of us, as defined, which includes RMR LLC ceasing to act as our business and property manager. Our revolving credit facility and term loan agreements and our senior unsecured notes indentures and their supplements also contain a number of covenants, including covenants that restrict our ability to incur debts, and generally require us to maintain certain financial ratios, and our revolving credit facility and term loan agreements restrict our ability to make distributions under certain circumstances.
