On July 22, 2015, the Operating Partnership, as borrower, and the Trust and certain subsidiaries and other affiliates of the Operating Partnership, as guarantors, entered into an amendment to the existing Credit Agreement with KeyBank National Association, as administrative agent, KeyBanc Capital Markets Inc., Regions Capital Markets and BMO Capital Markets, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, Regions Capital Markets and BMO Capital Markets, as co-syndication agents, and the lenders party thereto (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) which increased the maximum principal amount available under the unsecured revolving credit facility from $400 million to $750 million. The Credit Agreement includes a swingline loan commitment for up to 10% of the maximum principal amount and provides an accordion feature allowing the Trust to increase borrowing capacity by up to an additional $350 million, subject to customary terms and conditions, resulting in a maximum borrowing capacity of $1.1 billion.
 
The Credit Agreement has a maturity date of September 18, 2019 and includes a one year extension option. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest on the outstanding principal amount at a rate which is determined by the Trust's credit rating, currently equal to LIBOR plus 1.20%. In addition, the Credit Agreement includes a facility fee equal to 0.25% per annum, which is determined by the Trust's investment grade rating under the Credit Agreement.
 
The Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that, among other things, require compliance with leverage and coverage ratios and maintenance of minimum tangible net worth, as well as covenants that may limit the Trust’s and the Operating Partnership’s ability to incur additional debt or make distributions. The Trust may, at any time, voluntarily prepay any loan under the Credit Agreement in whole or in part without premium or penalty. As of September 30, 2015, the Trust was in compliance with all financial covenants.
 
The Credit Agreement includes customary representations and warranties by the Operating Partnership, the Trust and each other guarantor and imposes customary covenants on the Operating Partnership, the Trust and each other guarantor. The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, and if an event of default occurs and continues, the Operating Partnership is subject to certain actions by the administrative agent, including without limitation, the acceleration of repayment of all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
 
The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit loans to the Operating Partnership. Base Rate Loans, Adjusted LIBOR Rate Loans and Letters of Credit (each, as defined in the Credit Agreement) will be subject to interest rates, based upon the investment grade rating of the Trust, the Operating Partnership and its subsidiaries as follows:
