The extension of the maturity dates was at the Company’s option under the Bank Term Loan and the Credit Facility agreements. There were no changes in the terms and conditions of the loan agreements as a result of the maturity date extensions.
During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company’s weighted-average effective interest rate on its mortgage notes payable was 6.50% and 6.43%, respectively. During the six-months ended June 30, 2011, the Company repurchased $22.9 million of its outstanding unsecured Notes in a series of transactions which are summarized in the table below (in thousands):

The Parent Company unconditionally guarantees the unsecured debt obligations of the Operating Partnership (or is a co-borrower with the Operating Partnership) but does not, by itself incur indebtedness. The Company utilizes credit facility borrowings for general business purposes, including the acquisition, development and redevelopment of properties and the repayment of other debt. The per annum variable interest rate on the outstanding balances is LIBOR plus 0.725%. The interest rate and facility fee are subject to adjustment upon a change in the Company’s unsecured debt ratings. The Company has the option to increase the Credit Facility to $800.0 million provided that the Company has not committed any defaults under the Credit Facility and is able to acquire additional commitments from its existing lenders or new lenders. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had $42.0 million of borrowings and $10.3 million in letters of credit outstanding, leaving $547.7 million of unused availability under the Credit Facility. During the six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the weighted-average interest rate on Credit Facility borrowings was 1.01%. As of June 30, 2011 and 2010, the weighted average interest rate on the Credit Facility was 0.99% and 1.07%, respectively. The Credit Facility requires the maintenance of ratios related to minimum net worth, debt-to-total capitalization and fixed charge coverage and includes non-financial covenants. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants as of June 30, 2011. The Company accounts for its outstanding 3.875% Guaranteed Exchangeable Notes in accordance with the accounting standard for convertible debt instruments. The accounting standard requires the initial proceeds from the Company’s issuance of the 3.875% Guaranteed Exchangeable Notes to be allocated between a liability component and an equity component in a manner that reflects interest expense at the interest rate of a similar nonconvertible debt that could have been issued by the Company at such time. This is accomplished through the creation of a discount on the debt that would be accreted using the effective interest method as additional non-cash interest expense over the period the debt is expected to remain outstanding (i.e. through the first optional redemption date). The principal amount outstanding of the 3.875% Guaranteed Exchangeable Notes was $59.8 million both at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. At certain times and upon certain events, the notes are exchangeable for cash up to their principal amount and, with respect to the remainder, if any, of the exchange value in excess of such principal amount, cash or common shares or a combination of both at the Company’s option. The initial exchange rate is 25.4065 shares per $1,000 principal amount of notes (which is equivalent to an initial exchange price of $39.36 per share). The carrying amount of the equity component is $24.4 million and is reflected within additional paid-in capital in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. The unamortized debt discount is $0.4 million at June 30, 2011 and $0.9 million at December 31, 2010, respectively, and will be amortized through October 15, 2011. The effective interest rate at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was 5.5%. The Company recognized contractual coupon interest of $0.6 million and $1.2 million for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and $0.8 million and $1.9 million for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, respectively. In addition, the Company recognized interest expense on amortization of debt discount of $0.3 million and $0.6 million during the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and $0.4 million and $0.9 million during the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010, respectively. Debt discount write-offs resulting from debt repurchases amounted to $0.5 million and $1.6 million for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2010. There were no repurchases of the notes during the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2011. As of June 30, 2011, the Company’s aggregate scheduled principal payments of debt obligations, excluding amortization of discounts and premiums, were as follows (in thousands):
2011 |  | $ | 6,339 |
