Interest Rate Derivatives

Our objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we use an interest rate cap as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. We do not use interest rate derivatives for trading or speculative purposes.

Interest rate derivatives not designated as hedges for GAAP are not speculative and are used to manage our exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks but we have elected not to apply hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of interest rate derivatives not designated in hedging relationships are recorded in derivative fair value adjustment within our consolidated statements of operations - discontinued operations. Our interest rate cap was terminated on July 31, 2024, in conjunction with the sale of the Fayetteville property.

The following table summarizes the terms of our derivative financial instruments during the nine months ended September 30, 2024:


Interest Rate Derivative:	Notional Amount		Strike	Effective Date	Maturity Date
SOFR Cap - Fayetteville Mortgage Loan	$	34,500,000	4.25%	4/10/2024	4/10/2025	(1)
