Debt Disclosure [Abstract] |
Indebtedness | Indebtedness Our principal debt obligations at June 30, 2020 were: (1) $2,650,000 outstanding principal amount of senior unsecured notes; (2) $200,000 outstanding principal amount under our term loan; and (3) $685,428 aggregate principal amount of mortgage notes (excluding premiums, discounts and net debt issuance costs) secured by seven properties, of which $620,000 is related to a joint venture arrangement in which we own a 55% equity interest. These seven mortgaged properties had a gross book value of real estate assets at cost plus certain acquisition costs, before depreciation and purchase price allocations and less impairment write downs of $1,258,457 at June 30, 2020. We also had two properties subject to finance leases with lease obligations totaling $8,352 at June 30, 2020; these two properties had gross book value of real estate assets of $35,708 at June 30, 2020, and the finance leases expire in 2026. We have a $1,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility that is available for general business purposes. 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. As of June 30, 2020, our revolving credit facility required interest to be paid on borrowings at the annual rate of 2.6%, plus a facility fee of 30 basis points per annum on the total amount of lending commitments under the facility. The weighted average annual interest rates for borrowings under our revolving credit facility were 1.8% and 3.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 2.2% and 3.6% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The interest rate premium and facility fee are each subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings. As of June 30, 2020 and August 3, 2020, we had no outstanding borrowings and $1,000,000 available for borrowing under our revolving credit facility. We have a $200,000 unsecured term loan that matures in September 2022 and is prepayable without penalty at any time. At June 30, 2020, the annual interest rate payable on amounts outstanding under this term loan was 2.4%. The weighted average annual interest rate for amounts outstanding under this term loan was 2.3% and 3.9% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 2.7% and 3.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The interest rate premium is subject to adjustment based upon changes to our credit ratings. In February 2020, we prepaid a mortgage note secured by one of our life science properties with an outstanding principal balance of approximately $1,554, a maturity date in March 2026 and an annual interest rate of 6.25%. As a result of this prepayment, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $246 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. We prepaid this mortgage using cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. In April 2020, we redeemed all of our outstanding 6.75% senior notes due 2020 for a redemption price equal to the principal amount of $200,000 plus accrued and unpaid interest of $6,750. We funded this redemption with cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. In May 2020, we prepaid a mortgage note secured by one of our medical office properties with an outstanding principal balance of approximately $1,213, a maturity date in January 2022 and an annual interest rate of 7.49%. As a result of the prepayment of this mortgage note, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $155 for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. We prepaid this mortgage using cash on hand and borrowings under our revolving credit facility. In June 2020, we issued $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 9.75% senior notes due 2025 in an underwritten public offering raising net proceeds of $983,500, after deducting estimated offering expenses and underwriters' discounts. These notes are guaranteed by all of our subsidiaries, except for certain excluded subsidiaries, and require semi-annual interest payments through maturity. Prior to June 15, 2022, we may, at our option, redeem all or a portion of these notes at a redemption price equal to the outstanding principal amount of these notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, plus the make-whole amount set forth in the indenture which governs these notes, as supplemented, or our 2025 Notes Indenture. Prior to June 15, 2022, we may also, at our option, redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of these notes with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in the 2025 Notes Indenture, so long as at least 50% of the original aggregate principal amount of these notes remains outstanding after each such redemption. In addition, we have the option to redeem all or a portion of these notes at any time on or after June 15, 2022 at the redemption prices set forth in the 2025 Notes Indenture. We used the net proceeds from this offering to prepay in full our $250,000 unsecured term loan which was scheduled to mature in June 2020 and to reduce amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facility. The weighted average interest rate under our $250,000 senior unsecured term loan was 1.9% and 2.4% for the periods from April 1, 2020 to June 2, 2020 and January 1, 2020 to June 2, 2020, respectively. As a result of the repayment of our $250,000 senior unsecured term loan, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $26 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. In June 2020, we amended the agreements governing our $1,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility and $200,000 unsecured term loan, or collectively, our credit and term loan agreements. The amendments modify certain of the financial covenants under our credit and term loan agreements through June 30, 2021, or the Amendment Period, during which, subject to certain conditions, we will continue to have access to undrawn amounts under our revolving credit facility. We have the right to terminate the Amendment Period prior to June 30, 2021, subject to certain conditions. During the Amendment Period:
• | our interest rate premium over LIBOR under our revolving credit facility and term loan increased by 50 basis points;
• | we will generally be required to apply the net cash proceeds from the disposition of assets, capital markets transactions, debt financings or COVID-19 government stimulus programs, if allowed, to the repayment of outstanding loans under the revolving credit facility, if any;
• | we will be subject to certain additional covenants, including additional restrictions on our ability to incur indebtedness (with exceptions for borrowings under our revolving credit facility and certain other categories of secured and unsecured indebtedness), and to acquire real property or make other investments (with exceptions for, among other things, certain categories of capital expenditures and costs);
• | we will be required to maintain unrestricted liquidity (unrestricted cash and undrawn availability under our revolving credit facility) of not less than $200,000; and
• | our ability to pay distributions on our common shares will be limited to paying a cash dividend of $0.01 per common share per quarter and amounts required to maintain our qualification for taxation as a real estate investment trust, or REIT, and to avoid the payment of certain income and excise taxes.
Our credit 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 credit and term loan agreements, a change of control of us, as defined, which includes The RMR Group LLC, or RMR LLC, ceasing to act as our business and property manager. Our credit and term loan agreements and our senior unsecured notes indentures and their supplements also contain covenants, including covenants that restrict our ability to incur debts, and generally require us to maintain certain financial ratios, and our credit and term loan agreements restrict our ability to make distributions under certain circumstances. We believe we were in compliance with the terms and conditions of the respective covenants under our credit and term loan agreements and our senior unsecured notes indentures and their supplements at June 30, 2020. Although we have taken steps to enhance our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity, as noted elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, a protracted negative economic impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic may cause increased pressure on our ability to satisfy financial and other covenants.
