Term Loan
As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, our $200.0 million unsecured Term Loan (the "Term Loan") matures on January 10, 2020 and has an interest rate of LIBOR plus 1.35% to 1.95% per annum and, subject to certain conditions, may be prepaid at any time without premium or penalty. The spread over LIBOR is variable quarterly based on leverage measured quarterly throughout the loan term. The Term Loan contains customary representations, warranties, and negative and affirmative covenants, and provides for acceleration of principal and payment of all other amounts payable thereunder upon the occurrence of certain events of default. In connection with the Term Loan, we also entered into a three year LIBOR Swap Agreement (the "2014 Swap") allowing us to trade the variable interest rate for a fixed interest rate on the Term Loan (see Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on the accounting for the 2014 Swap).
Unsecured Line of Credit
As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, our unsecured Line of Credit ("LOC") had a borrowing capacity of $400.0 million, with the option to increase the borrowing capacity by $100.0 million, subject to certain conditions, with no amounts outstanding as of those dates. The LOC bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.20% to 1.65%, requires an annual facility fee of 0.20% to 0.35% and matures on July 17, 2018, with an option to extend for one additional year, subject to certain conditions. The spread over LIBOR is variable quarterly based on leverage throughout the loan term. In 2014, we incurred commitment and arrangement fees of approximately $3.5 million to enter into the LOC and extend the Term Loan.
As of December 31, 2016, we were in compliance in all material respects with the covenants in our borrowing arrangements.
