1.The interest rate for the revolving credit facility is variable and based on LIBOR (subject to a 0.5% floor) plus a spread of 2.5% if borrowings remain at or below $200 million and a spread of 3.0% if borrowings exceed $200 million. At March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had $110.0 million and $70.0 million, respectively, of outstanding borrowings under its $250.0 million revolving credit facility. Credit facility lenders representing $227.5 million of commitments have provided two six-month extension options that would extend the final maturity to March 8, 2024, if exercised. The credit facility is currently secured by equity pledges in properties that do not serve as collateral for other secured debt.
2.On August 4, 2020, a subsidiary of Chatham entered into an agreement with affiliates of Mack Real Estate Credit Strategies to obtain a $40 million loan to fund the remaining construction costs of the Home2 Woodland Hills hotel development. The loan has an initial term of 4 years and there are two six-month extension options. The interest rate on the loan is LIBOR, subject to a 0.25% floor, plus a spread of 7.5%.
The Company estimates the fair value of its fixed rate debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at estimated market rates. All of the Company's mortgage loans are fixed-rate. Rates take into consideration general market conditions, quality and estimated value of collateral and maturity of debt with similar credit terms and are classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of the Company’s fixed rate debt as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $429.4 million and $443.4 million, respectively.
The Company estimates the fair value of its variable rate debt by taking into account general market conditions and the estimated credit terms it could obtain for debt with similar maturity and is classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s variable rate debt consisted of its revolving credit facility and construction loan. The estimated fair value of the Company’s variable rate debt as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $148.5 million and $105.0 million, respectively.
On October 26, 2021, Chatham executed an amendment to its credit facility which extended a waiver of financial covenants until June 30, 2022, provided for the immediate exercise of an option to extend the maturity of the entire $250.0 million credit facility through March 8, 2023, and added two six-month options to further extend the maturity of the credit facility through March 8, 2024 from lenders representing $227.5 million of commitments. In conjunction with the amendment, Chatham provided credit facility lenders with equity pledges on three unencumbered hotels. The spread on the credit facility did not change as a result of the amendment. The amendment places limits on the Company’s ability to incur debt, pay dividends, and make capital expenditures during the covenant waiver period. During the covenant waiver period interest will be calculated as LIBOR (subject to a 0.5% floor) plus a spread of 2.50% if borrowings remain at or below $200.0 million and a spread of 3.0% if borrowings exceed $200.0 million. As of March 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all of its modified financial covenants.

Our mortgage debt agreements contain “cash trap” provisions that are triggered when the hotel’s operating results
fall below a certain debt service coverage ratio or debt yield. When these provisions are triggered, all of the excess cash flow generated by the hotel is deposited directly into cash management accounts for the benefit of our lenders until a specified debt service coverage ratio or debt yield is reached. Such provisions do not allow the lender the right to accelerate repayment of the underlying debt. As of March 31, 2022, the debt service coverage ratios or debt yields for eight of our mortgage loans were below the minimum thresholds such that the cash trap provision of each respective loan could be enforced. As of March 31, 2022, one of our mortgage debt lenders has enforced cash trap provisions. We do not expect that such cash traps will affect our ability to satisfy our short-term liquidity requirements.
Future scheduled principal payments of debt obligations as of March 31, 2022, for the current year and each of the next five calendar years and thereafter are as follows (in thousands):

Accounting for Derivative Instruments
The Company has entered into interest rate cap agreements to hedge against interest rate fluctuations related to the construction loan for the Home2 Woodland Hills hotel. The Company records its derivative instruments on the balance sheet at their estimated fair values. Changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recorded each period in current earnings or in other comprehensive income, depending on whether a derivative is designated as part of a hedging relationship and, if it is, depending on the type of hedging relationship. The Company's interest rate caps are not designated as a hedge but to eliminate the incremental cost to the Company if the one-month LIBOR were to exceed 3.5%. Accordingly, the interest rate caps are recorded on the balance sheet under prepaid expenses and other assets at the estimated fair value and realized and unrealized changes in the fair value are reported in the consolidated statement of operations. As of March 31, 2022, the fair value of the interest rate caps were $0.3 million.
