The outstanding amount of the senior unsecured notes is included in liabilities subject to compromise in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. On the Effective Date, the senior unsecured notes were cancelled by operation of the Plan. See Note 2 for more information.

The post-default interest rate at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was 9.50%. In accordance with ASC 852, which limits the recognition of interest expense during a bankruptcy proceeding to only amounts that will be paid during the bankruptcy proceeding or that are probable of becoming allowed claims, interest has not been accrued on the secured credit facility subsequent to the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases. The outstanding amount of the secured credit facility is included in liabilities subject to compromise in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. On the Effective Date, HoldCo I entered into the Exit Credit Agreement, which amended the pre-emergence secured credit facility. See Note 2 for more information.
(5) | As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, represents interest accrued on the secured credit facility and senior unsecured notes prior to the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases.
Non-recourse term loans, recourse term loans, the secured line of credit and the secured term loan include loans that are secured by Properties owned by the Company that have a net carrying value of $2,100,084 at September 30, 2021. Pre-Emergence Senior Secured Credit Facility As of September 30, 2021, the Company had a $1,185,000 senior secured credit facility, which included a revolving line of credit drawn to its maximum borrowing capacity of $675,926 and a term loan with an outstanding balance of $438,750. As further described in Note 2 and in Pre-Emergence Financial Covenants and Restrictions below, the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases constituted an event of default that resulted in certain monetary obligations becoming immediately due and payable with respect to the secured credit facility. In March 2020, the Company drew $280,000 on its secured credit facility to increase liquidity and preserve financial flexibility in light of the uncertainty surrounding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result of the events of default described under Pre-Emergence Financial Covenants and Restrictions below, the Operating Partnership could not borrow any additional amounts under the secured line of credit. As of September 30, 2021, the secured credit facility was secured by 17 malls and 3 associated centers that are owned by 36 wholly owned subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership (collectively the “Combined Guarantor Subsidiaries”). The Combined Guarantor Subsidiaries own an additional four malls, two associated centers and four mortgage notes receivable that are not collateral for the secured credit facility. The properties that are collateral for the secured credit facility and the properties and mortgage notes receivable that are not collateral are collectively referred to as the “Guarantor Properties.” The terms of the Notes provided that, to the extent that any subsidiary of the Operating Partnership executes and delivers a guarantee to another debt facility, the Operating Partnership shall also cause the subsidiary to guarantee the Operating Partnership’s obligations under the Notes on a senior basis. See Liquidity and Going Concern Considerations and Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11 in Note 2 for information on the Debtors emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases and the transactions associated with the Plan. Pre-Emergence Financial Covenants and Restrictions The agreements for the Notes and senior secured credit facility contained default provisions customary for transactions of this nature (with applicable customary grace periods). Any default in the payment of any recourse indebtedness of the Operating Partnership greater than or equal to $50,000 would constitute an event of default under the Notes and the senior secured credit facility. Additionally, the secured credit facility contained a provision that any default on a payment of non-recourse indebtedness in excess of $150,000 was also a default of the senior secured credit facility. The filing of the Chapter 11 Cases constituted an event of default that resulted in certain monetary obligations becoming immediately due and payable with respect to the secured credit facility and the senior unsecured notes. The filing of the Chapter 11 Cases also constituted an event of default with respect to certain property-level debt of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries, which may result in acceleration of the outstanding principal and other sums due. Certain of the Company’s properties that are pledged as collateral on non-recourse mortgage loans and the secured credit facility are subject to cash management agreements with the lenders, which restrict the cash balances associated with those properties to only be used for debt service, capital items and operating expense obligations. See Liquidity and Going Concern Considerations and Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11 in Note 2 for information on the Debtors emergence from the Chapter 11 Cases and the transactions associated with the Plan. Loans in Default As of September 30, 2021, two non-recourse loans that are each secured by one of the Company’s malls were in default. The default of the two non-recourse loans occurred prior to the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases. As of September 2021, the lenders under each of these loans accelerated the outstanding amounts due and payable on the loans. The foreclosure process has not yet commenced for EastGate Mall. The Company is in discussions with the lender regarding a restructure of the loan secured by Greenbrier Mall. Management has previously impaired the mall that secures each loan due to a shortened expected hold period resulting from management’s assessment that there is an increased likelihood that the loan secured by each mall may not be successfully restructured or refinanced. The non-recourse loans that are in default at September 30, 2021 are as follows:
Property |  | Location |  | Interest Rate |  |  | Scheduled Maturity Date |  | Loan Amount |
Greenbrier Mall |  | Chesapeake, VA |  | 5.41% |  |  | Dec-19 |  | $ | 61,647 |
EastGate Mall |  | Cincinnati, OH |  | 5.83% |  |  | Apr-21 |  |  | 30,117 |
As described in Note 2, the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases also constituted an event of default with respect to certain property-level debt of the Operating Partnership’s subsidiaries, which may have resulted in the automatic acceleration of certain monetary obligations or may give the applicable lender the right to accelerate such amounts. The Company entered forbearance and waiver agreements with many of the lenders, which waived defaults due to bankruptcy upon the Plan becoming effective. The Company remains in negotiations with lenders regarding loan extensions and loan defaults where a forbearance and/or waiver agreement have not been reached, and those loans have an aggregate outstanding balance of $727,603 at September 30, 2021. On May 26, 2021, the subsidiary that owns The Outlet Shoppes at Laredo filed for bankruptcy. In September 2021, the Company reached an agreement with the lender to amend the loan secured by The Outlet Shoppes at Laredo and dismiss the bankruptcy case. The loan term was extended through June 2023 and contains a one-year extension option. In conjunction with the deconsolidation of Asheville Mall and Park Plaza, the Company deconsolidated the loan securing each property, which represented $138,926 of previously consolidated debt. See Note 8 for additional information. Pre-Emergence Scheduled Principal Payments As of September 30, 2021, the scheduled principal amortization and balloon payments of the Company’s consolidated debt, excluding extensions available at the Company’s option, on all mortgage and other indebtedness, including the secured line of credit, are as follows:
