We have entered into interest rate swaps to partially fix the interest rates on a portion of our variable interest rate indebtedness. See "Note 7 - Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging" to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information. Our total fixed-rate and variable-rate debt, after considering our interest rate derivative agreements that are currently effective, is as follows (in thousands):

At March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had $400.0 million of debt with variable interest rates that had been converted to fixed interest rates through derivative financial instruments which are carried at fair value. Differences between carrying value and fair value of our fixed-rate debt are primarily due to changes in interest rates. Inherently, fixed-rate debt is subject to fluctuations in fair value as a result of changes in the current market rate of interest on the valuation date. For additional information on our use of derivatives as interest rate hedges, refer to "Note 7 - Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging."

On December 6, 2018, the Operating Partnership, as borrower, the Company, as parent guarantor, and each party executing the loan documentation as a subsidiary guarantor, entered into a $600.0 million senior unsecured credit facility (the “2018 Unsecured Credit Facility”) with Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders. The 2018 Unsecured Credit Facility is comprised of a $400.0 million revolving credit facility (the “$400 Million Revolver”) and a $200.0 million term loan facility (the “$200 Million Term Loan”). At March 31, 2020, we had $395.0 million borrowed and $139.3 million available to borrow.

The 2018 Unsecured Credit Facility has an accordion feature which will allow the Company to increase the total commitments by an aggregate of up to $300.0 million. The $400 Million Revolver will mature on March 31, 2023 and can be extended to March 31, 2024 at the Company’s option, subject to certain conditions. The $200 Million Term Loan will mature on April 1, 2024.

The interest rate on the 2018 Unsecured Credit Facility is based on a pricing grid ranging from 140 basis points to 215 basis points plus LIBOR for the $400 Million Revolver and 135 basis points to 210 basis points plus LIBOR for the $200 Million Term Loan, depending upon the Company's leverage ratio. The interest rate at March 31, 2020 for the $200 Million Term Loan was 2.69%.

Financial and Other Covenants. We are required to comply with various financial and other covenants to draw and maintain borrowings under the 2018 Unsecured Credit Facility. At March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with all financial covenants.

Unencumbered Assets. The 2018 Unsecured Credit Facility is unsecured. However, borrowings under the 2018 Unsecured Credit Facility are limited by the value of hotel assets that qualify as unencumbered assets. At March 31, 2020, the Company had 52 unencumbered hotel properties (the "Unencumbered Properties") supporting the 2018 Unsecured Credit Facility.

The interest rate during the periods of the financial and covenant waivers and adjustments will be set at Pricing Level VII, as defined in the 2018 Unsecured Credit Facility documents.

The First Amendment requires the borrower and certain subsidiaries to pledge to the secured parties all of the equity interests in the entities that own the Unencumbered Properties, as well as the equity interests in the TRS lessees related to such Unencumbered Properties until the borrower meets certain conditions for their release.

The First Amendment confirmed that the borrower may advance up to an additional $100 million on the $400 Million Revolver. Furthermore, the First Amendment permits the borrower to advance an additional $50 million, in addition to the $100 million advance described in the preceding sentence, upon filing mortgages and related security agreements on all Unencumbered Properties, with such security documents to be released upon the borrower meeting certain conditions for their release.

Certain other typical limitations and conditions for credit facilities of this nature were included among the provisions in the First Amendment including, among other provisions, limitations on the use of revolving facility advances, certain restrictions on payments of dividends and establishment of a minimum liquidity requirement.

On February 15, 2018, our Operating Partnership, as borrower, the Company, as parent guarantor, and each party executing the term loan documentation as a subsidiary guarantor, entered into a new $225.0 million unsecured term loan (the “2018 Term Loan”) with KeyBank National Association, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders listed in the loan documentation, which is fully drawn as of March 31, 2020. The 2018 Term Loan has an accordion feature that allows us to increase the total commitments by $150.0 million prior to the maturity date of February 14, 2025, subject to certain conditions.

We pay interest on advances at varying rates, based upon, at our option, either (i) 1-, 2-, 3-, or 6-month LIBOR, plus a LIBOR margin between 1.80% and 2.55%, depending upon our leverage ratio (as defined in the loan documents), or (ii) the applicable base rate, which is the greatest of the administrative agent’s prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and 1-month LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus a base rate margin between 0.80% and 1.55%, depending upon our leverage ratio. We are required to pay other fees, including customary arrangement and administrative fees. The interest rate at March 31, 2020 was 2.49%.

On February 18, 2020, the Company repriced the 2018 Term Loan, lowering the interest rate to a LIBOR margin between 1.35% and 1.90%, depending on our leverage ratio. All other material provisions of the loan remain unchanged, including the maturity date of the loan which remains February 14, 2025. The Company expects to realize approximately $0.9 million of annual interest expense savings as a result of the transaction through the remaining term of the loan.

The 2017 Term Loan has an accordion feature which allows us to increase the total commitments by an aggregate of $175.0 million prior to the maturity date, subject to certain conditions. The 2017 Term Loan matures on November 25, 2022.

We pay interest on advances at varying rates, based upon, at our option, either (i) 1-, 2-, 3-, or 6-month LIBOR, plus a LIBOR margin between 1.45% and 2.20%, depending upon our leverage ratio (as defined in the loan documents), or (ii) the applicable base rate, which is the greatest of the administrative agent’s prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and 1-month LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus a base rate margin between 0.45% and 1.20%, depending upon our leverage ratio.

On October 8, 2019, Summit JV MR 1, LLC (the “Borrower”), as borrower, Summit Hospitality JV, LP (the “Parent”), as parent, and each party executing the credit facility documentation as a subsidiary guarantor, entered into a $200 million credit facility (the “Joint Venture Credit Facility”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and sole initial lender, and BofA Securities, Inc., as sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner.

The Parent is the joint venture including the Operating Partnership and an affiliate of GIC, Singapore's sovereign wealth fund. See "Note 8 - Equity - Non-controlling Interests in Joint Venture" for additional information. The Operating Partnership and the Company are not borrowers or guarantors of the Joint Venture Credit Facility. The Joint Venture Credit Facility is guaranteed by all of the Borrower’s existing and future subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions.

The Joint Venture Credit Facility is comprised of a $125 million revolving credit facility (the “$125 Million Revolver”) and a $75 million term loan (the “$75 Million Term Loan”). The Joint Venture Credit Facility has an accordion feature which will allow us to increase the total commitments by up to $300 million, for aggregate potential borrowings of up to $500 million on the Joint Venture Credit Facility.

The $125 Million Revolver and the $75 Million Term Loan will mature on October 8, 2023. Each individually can be extended for a single consecutive twelve-month period at the Joint Venture's option, subject to certain conditions.

Interest is paid on revolving credit advances at varying rates based upon, at the Borrower's option, either (i) 1-, 2-, 3-, or 6-month LIBOR, plus a margin of 2.15% for Eurodollar rate advances, or (ii) LIBOR, plus a margin of 2.15% for LIBOR floating rate advances, or (iii) the applicable base rate, which is the greatest of the administrative agent’s prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and 1-month LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus a base rate margin of 1.15%. The applicable margin for a term loan advance shall be five basis points less than revolving credit advances referenced above.

Borrowing Base Assets. The Joint Venture Credit Facility is secured primarily by a first priority pledge of the Borrower's equity interests in the subsidiaries that hold the borrowing base assets, and the related TRS entities, which wholly own the TRS Lessees that lease each of the borrowing base assets.

Financial and Other Covenants. In addition, the Borrower is required to comply with a series of financial and other covenants in order to borrow under the Joint Venture Credit Facility. At March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with all financial covenants.

On June 30, 2017, we entered into a $47.6 million secured, non-recourse loan with MetaBank (the "MetaBank Loan"). During the year ended December 31, 2017, we drew $47.6 million on the MetaBank Loan and used the proceeds to pay down the principal balance of our former $300 million revolving credit facility. The MetaBank Loan provides for a fixed interest rate of 4.44% and originally provided for interest-only payments for 18 months following the closing date. On January 31, 2019, we entered into a modification agreement, at no additional cost, that increased the interest-only period from 18 months to 24 months following the closing date. Beginning August 1, 2019, the loan amortizes over 25 years through the maturity date of July 1, 2027. The MetaBank Loan is secured by three hotels and is subject to a prepayment penalty if prepaid prior to April 1, 2027.

On March 19, 2019, we had a mortgage loan of $26.2 million that was secured by four hotel properties. We defeased $6.3 million of the principal to have the encumbrance released on one hotel property, the Hyatt Place in Arlington, TX, to facilitate the sale of the hotel property. As a result of this transaction, we recorded debt transaction costs of $0.6 million primarily related to the debt defeasance premium. The mortgage loan remains outstanding and is secured by the remaining three hotel properties.
