Certain of the Company’s loan agreements contain cash trap provisions that may be triggered if the performance of the hotels securing the loans decline. These provisions were triggered for the loans secured by the Embassy Suites La Jolla and the JW Marriott New Orleans in January 2021 and at the Hilton San Diego Bayfront in May 2021. As of June 30, 2021, a nominal amount of excess cash was held in lockbox accounts for the benefit of the lenders and included in restricted cash on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. The cash trap provisions triggered on these three loans will remain until the hotels reach profitability levels that terminate the cash traps.

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had no amount outstanding on the revolving portion of its credit facility, with $500.0 million of capacity available for additional borrowing under the facility. The Company’s ability to draw on the revolving portion of the credit facility may be subject to the Company’s compliance with various financial covenants on its secured and unsecured debt.

The Company is subject to various financial covenants on its secured and unsecured debt. In July and December 2020, the Company completed amendments to its unsecured debt, consisting of its revolving credit facility, term loans and senior notes (the “Unsecured Debt Amendments”). Among other provisions, the Unsecured Debt Amendments include a waiver of required financial covenants through the end of the first quarter of 2022, with quarterly testing resuming for the period ending March 31, 2022 (see Note 12). The Company can elect to terminate the covenant relief period early, subject to the achievement of the original financial covenants at the end of any quarterly measurement period.
