The Company’s various debt agreements contain certain representations, warranties, and financial and other covenants customary in such loan agreements. Among other things, these provisions require the Company to maintain certain financial ratios and minimum tangible net worth and impose certain limits on the Company’s ability to incur indebtedness and create liens or encumbrances. As of December 31, 2014, the Company was in compliance with its financial covenant provisions under its various debt instruments.
Unsecured Credit Facility due 2017
On October 14, 2011, the Company entered into a $700.0 million unsecured credit facility ("Unsecured Credit Facility") with a syndicate of 17 lenders. On February 15, 2013, the Company amended the facility to extend the original maturity date to April 14, 2017. The amendment also provides the Company with two six-month extension options that could extend the maturity date to April 14, 2018. Each option is subject to an extension fee of 0.075% of the aggregate commitments. Amounts outstanding under the Unsecured Credit Facility bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin rate. The margin rate, which depends on the Company's credit ratings, ranges from 0.95% to 1.75% (1.4% as of December 31, 2014). In addition, the Company pays a facility fee per annum on the aggregate amount of commitments ranging from 0.15% to 0.35% (0.30% as of December 31, 2014). In connection with the amendment, the Company paid up-front fees to the lenders of approximately $2.7 million, which will be amortized over the term of the facility. The Company wrote-off certain unamortized deferred financing costs of the original facility of approximately $0.3 million upon execution of the amendment. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had $85.0 million outstanding under the Unsecured Credit Facility with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 1.6% and a remaining borrowing capacity of approximately $615.0 million.
Unsecured Term Loan Facility due 2019
In February 2014, the Company entered into a $200.0 million unsecured term loan facility ("Unsecured Term Loan due 2019") with a syndicate of nine lenders that matures on February 26, 2019. The Unsecured Term Loan due 2019 bears interest at a rate equal to (x) LIBOR plus (y) a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.95% (1.45% as of December 31, 2014) based upon the Company's unsecured debt ratings. Payments under the Unsecured Term Loan due 2019 are interest only, with the full amount of the principal due at maturity. The Unsecured Term Loan due 2019 may be prepaid at any time, without penalty. The proceeds from the Unsecured Term Loan due 2019 were used by the Company to repay borrowings on its Unsecured Credit Facility. The Unsecured Term Loan due 2019 has various financial covenant provisions that are required to be met on a quarterly and annual basis that are equivalent to those of the Unsecured Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had $200.0 million outstanding under the Unsecured Term Loan due 2019 with a weighted average interest rate of approximately 1.6%.
Senior Notes due 2017
On December 4, 2009, the Company publicly issued $300.0 million of unsecured senior notes due 2017 (the "Senior Notes due 2017"). The Senior Notes due 2017 bear interest at 6.50%, payable semi-annually on January 17 and July 17, and are due on January 17, 2017, unless redeemed earlier by the Company. The notes were issued at a discount of approximately $2.0 million, which yielded a 6.618% interest rate per annum upon issuance. For each of the years ended December 31, 2014, 2013 and 2012, the Company amortized approximately $0.3 million of the discount which is included in interest expense on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company's board of directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $50 million of the Company's Senior Notes due 2017 in open market transactions from time to time. The Company currently has no specific timeframe within which to purchase these notes and has no obligation to repurchase any notes prior to maturity.
