Secured Revolving Credit Facility

The Company is party to a revolving credit facility (the “Secured Revolving Credit Facility”) with Inwood National Bank, which provides for an aggregate commitment amount of $35.0 million. On May 22, 2020, the Company amended the Secured Revolving Credit Facility to reduce the aggregate commitment amount of $75.0 million to $35.0 million. Amounts outstanding under the Secured Revolving Credit Facility are secured by mortgages on real property and security interests in certain personal property (to the extent that such personal property is connected with the use and enjoyment of the real property) that is owned by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. The entire unpaid principal balance and any accrued but unpaid interest is due and payable on the maturity date. As of September 30, 2020, the maturity date of the Secured Revolving Credit Facility is May 1, 2022.

As of September 30, 2020, letters of credit outstanding totaling $7.2 million reduced the aggregate maximum commitment amount to $27.8 million.

As of September 30, 2020, the interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Secured Revolving Credit Facility was 4.00% per annum.

Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility

The Company is party to a credit agreement, providing for a senior, unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility”). The Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility provides aggregate lending commitments of up to $215.0 million. As of September 30, 2020, the maximum aggregate amount of the Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility was $275.0 million, and the termination date with respect to commitments under the Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility was December 14, 2021 for $30.0 million and December 14, 2022 for $185.0 million out of the aggregate lending commitment of $215.0 million. As of September 30, 2020, the interest rates on outstanding borrowings under the Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility ranged from 2.64% to 2.66% per annum.

Based on the unprecedented disruptions to the credit and economic markets arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, we drew the full amount of our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility during the three months ended March 31, 2020. During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we paid our Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility down to prior levels once it was apparent that the Company’s access to liquidity in the financial markets was not compromised.

Senior Unsecured Notes

On August 8, 2019, the Company issued $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due on August 8, 2026 at a fixed rate of 4.00% per annum to Prudential Private Capital in a Section 4(a)(2) private placement transaction and received net proceeds of $73.3 million. A brokerage fee of approximately $1.5 million associated with the issuance was paid at closing. The brokerage fee, and other debt issuance costs of approximately $0.2 million, were deferred and reduced the amount of debt on our consolidated balance sheet. The Company used the net proceeds from the issuance of the senior unsecured notes to repay borrowings under the Company’s existing revolving credit facilities.

Principal on the senior unsecured notes is required to be paid in increments of $12.5 million on August 8, 2024 and $12.5 million on August 8, 2025. The final principal payment of $50.0 million is due on August 8, 2026. Optional prepayment is allowed with payment of a “make-whole” penalty which fluctuates depending on market interest rates. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears commencing November 8, 2019.

On August 26, 2020, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement with The Prudential Insurance Company of America and Prudential Universal Reinsurance Company to issue a $37.5 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due on August 26, 2027 at a fixed rate of 3.35% per annum in a Section 4(a)(2) private placement transaction. The Company received net proceeds of $37.4 million and incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $0.1 million that were deferred and reduced the amount of debt on our condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company used the net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes to repay borrowings under the Company’s existing revolving credit facilities and for general corporate purposes. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears commencing on November 26, 2020.
