The centerpiece is a Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement that extends the $600 million revolving credit facility’s maturity from May 2027 to February 2030, with additional extension options, and adds a new $569 million unsecured delayed-draw term loan replacing a $225 million term loan.
The company now has $225 million outstanding under the new Tranche A-1 Term Loan and $500 million outstanding under an existing Tranche A-2 Term Loan, both unsecured and tied to SOFR- or base-rate-based pricing that varies with leverage.

Management highlights that despite today’s higher rate environment, the new facilities were priced on attractive terms and are designed to ladder maturities and support redevelopment, acquisitions, capital spending, dividends and general corporate purposes.
