LLC, and U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc., as representatives of the several underwriters named therein, whereby the Company agreed to sell $500 million aggregate principal amount of 5.600% notes due 2033 (the “Notes”) in an underwritten public offering. The offering of the Notes closed on August 15, 2023. Concurrently with the closing of the offering and issuance of the Notes, the Company entered into a Twenty-first Supplemental Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”) to the Indenture dated as of March 25, 1998, as amended (the “Base Indenture,” and, together with the Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as successor trustee.
The Notes are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-273605), filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 2, 2023 (the “Registration Statement”).
The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and will rank equally with all of the Company’s other existing and future senior indebtedness.

The net proceeds from the offering were approximately $483.9 million, after deducting the underwriting discount and other estimated expenses of the offering payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to repay all of the outstanding indebtedness under its credit facility, to fund future property acquisitions and for general corporate purposes.
