(1)Reflects the contractual interest rate under the terms of each loan as of December 31, 2025 and includes the effect of interest rate swaps that were effective as of December 31, 2025. The interest rate is not adjusted to include the amortization of debt issuance costs or unamortized fair market value premiums and discounts.
(2)As of December 31, 2025, the interest rates on these loans are comprised of daily Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) for both the unsecured revolving credit facility and $400.0 million unsecured term loan, and 1-month term SOFR (“Term SOFR”) for the $300.0 million unsecured term loan, plus an applicable margin of 0.725% per annum for the unsecured revolving credit facility and 0.80% per annum for the $300.0 million and $400.0 million unsecured term loans, and a sustainability-related rate adjustment of zero. These loans are also subject to a 0% SOFR floor. In January 2026, the applicable margin decreased by 0.04% to 0.685% for the unsecured revolving credit facility and to 0.76% for the $400.0 million and $300.0 million unsecured term loans after certifying that our sustainability performance targets were met for 2025.
(3)The unsecured revolving credit facility is subject to an applicable facility fee which is calculated as a percentage of the total lenders’ commitment amount, regardless of usage. As of December 31, 2025, the applicable facility fee is 0.125% per annum with a sustainability-related rate adjustment of zero. In January 2026, the facility fee decreased by 0.01% to 0.115% after certifying that our sustainability performance targets for 2025 were met.
(4)The unsecured revolving credit facility has two six-month extensions available at our option, subject to certain terms and conditions.
(5)On August 6, 2025, we paid in full the outstanding principal balance on this unsecured debt.
(6)Term SOFR for our $300.0 million unsecured term loan has been swapped to a fixed rate of 2.81725% through May 26, 2027, resulting in an all-in fixed rate of 3.61725% after adding the applicable margin and sustainability-related rate adjustment.
(7)Daily SOFR for our $400.0 million unsecured term loan has been swapped to a fixed rate of 3.41375% through May 30, 2030, resulting in an all-in fixed rate of 4.21375% after adding the applicable margin and sustainability-related rate adjustment.
(8)The loan is secured by six properties and has interest-only payment terms bearing interest at Term SOFR increased by a 0.10% SOFR adjustment plus an applicable margin of 1.25% per annum. Term SOFR for this loan has been swapped to a fixed rate of 3.710% through July 30, 2026, resulting in an all-in fixed rate of 5.060% after adding the SOFR adjustment and applicable margin. On July 11, 2025, we exercised a one-year extension option, extending the maturity date of this loan to October 27, 2026. Subsequently, on September 2, 2025, we amended this loan to, among other changes, add two additional one-year extension options. As of December 31, 2025, we have three remaining one-year extension options available, subject to certain terms and conditions.

Recent Activity
Exchangeable Senior Notes
In March 2024, we issued $575.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.375% exchangeable senior unsecured notes due 2027 (the “2027 Exchangeable Notes”) and $575.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.125% exchangeable senior unsecured notes due 2029 (the “2029 Exchangeable Notes” and together with the 2027 Exchangeable Notes, the “Exchangeable Notes”). The 2027 Exchangeable Notes will mature on March 15, 2027 and the 2029 Exchangeable Notes will mature on March 15, 2029, in each case unless earlier repurchased, exchanged or (in the case of 2029 Exchangeable Notes) redeemed. The net proceeds from the issuance, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts, underwriting commissions and other offering expenses, were approximately $563.1 million for the 2027 Exchangeable Notes and $563.1 million for the 2029 Exchangeable Notes. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the net carrying amount of the 2027 Exchangeable Notes was $569.8 million and $565.9 million, respectively, with unamortized debt discount and issuance costs of $5.2 million and $9.1 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the net carrying amount of the 2029 Exchangeable Notes was $566.8 million and $564.6 million, respectively, with unamortized debt discount and issuance costs of $8.2 million and $10.4 million, respectively.
Interest on the Exchangeable Notes is payable semiannually on March 15 and September 15 of each year beginning on September 15, 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2025, we recognized total interest expense on the Exchangeable Notes of $55.3 million, with coupon interest of $48.9 million, and amortization of debt discount and issuance costs of $6.4 million. For the
year ended December 31, 2024, we recognized total interest expense on the Exchangeable Notes of $41.7 million, with coupon interest of $37.1 million, and amortization of debt discount and issuance costs of $4.6 million.
Before December 15, 2026 (in the case of the 2027 Exchangeable Notes) or December 15, 2028 (in the case of the 2029 Exchangeable Notes), noteholders will have the right to exchange their notes only upon the occurrence of certain events. From and after December 15, 2026 (in the case of the 2027 Exchangeable Notes) or December 15, 2028 (in the case of the 2029 Exchangeable Notes), noteholders may exchange their notes at any time at their election until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date of the applicable series of Exchangeable Notes. Exchanges will be settled by delivering cash up to the principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes exchanged, and in respect of the remainder of the exchanged value, if any, in excess thereof, in cash or in a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our option. The initial exchange rate is 15.7146 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the Exchangeable Notes, which represents an initial exchange price of approximately $63.64 per share of our common stock.
We may not redeem the 2027 Exchangeable Notes at our option prior to their maturity. The 2029 Exchangeable Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part (subject to certain limitations), for cash at our option at any time, and from time to time, on or after May 20, 2027 and on or before the 41st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date of the 2029 Exchangeable Notes, but only if the last reported sale price per share of our common stock exceeds 130% of the exchange price of the 2029 Exchangeable Notes for a specified period of time and certain other conditions are satisfied. The redemption price will be equal to the principal amount of the 2029 Exchangeable Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
If a fundamental change (e.g. change in control, delisting of our common stock or shareholders’ approval of liquidation or dissolution plan) occurs, then, subject to limited exception, noteholders may require us to repurchase their notes for cash at a repurchase price equal to the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest. In addition, if a specific make-whole fundamental change occurs prior to the maturity date or if we issue a notice of redemption with respect to the 2029 Exchangeable Notes, the exchange rate will be increased, in certain circumstances by pre-defined amounts.
In connection with the offering for each series of Exchangeable Notes, we entered into a registration rights agreement pursuant to which we agreed to register the resale of the shares of our common stock, if any, deliverable upon exchange of the Exchangeable Notes. If certain conditions relating to our obligations under the registration rights agreement are not satisfied, then we will pay additional interest on the applicable series of Exchangeable Notes. We account for such additional interest amounts as contingent obligations in accordance with ASC Subtopic 825-20: Financial Instrument - Registration Payment Arrangements, which are measured separately in accordance with ASC Subtopic 450-20: Loss Contingencies. Because payment of such additional interest amounts was not probable as of December 31, 2025, we have not recognized a liability as of December 31, 2025.
Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement    
On May 30, 2025, we amended our senior unsecured credit agreement by entering into the Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). Prior to the amendment, the credit agreement was comprised of (i) a senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) in the aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion, which also allowed us to issue letters of credit up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $100.0 million, (ii) a $300.0 million unsecured term loan facility (the “$300 Million Term Loan”) and (iii) a $400.0 million unsecured term loan facility (the “$400 Million Term Loan” and together with the $300 Million Term Loan, the “Term Facility”). The Credit Agreement, among other changes, (i) increased the borrowing capacity under the Revolver from $1.00 billion to $1.25 billion, (ii) lowered the interest rate by eliminating the 0.10% SOFR adjustment that previously applied to both the Revolver and the $400 Million Term Loan, (iii) extended the maturity date of the Revolver from May 26, 2026 to May 30, 2029 (with two six-month extensions) and (iv) extended the maturity of the $400 Million Term Loan from July 18, 2025 to May 30, 2030. The interest rate and maturity date (May 26, 2027) of the $300 Million Term Loan remained unchanged.
On November 21, 2025, we further amended the Credit Agreement to lower the interest rate by eliminating the 0.10% SOFR adjustment that previously applied to the $300 Million Term Loan.
Subject to certain terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, we may request additional lender commitments and increase the size of the Credit Agreement by an additional $1.05 billion, which may be comprised of additional revolving commitments under the Revolver, an increase to the Term Facility, additional term loan tranches or any combination of the foregoing.
Interest on the Credit Agreement is generally to be paid based upon, at our option, either Term SOFR, daily SOFR or a base rate, plus an applicable margin based on our leverage ratio and debt ratings. The applicable margin for the Term Facility ranges from 0.80% to 1.60% per annum for SOFR-based loans and 0.00% to 0.60% per annum for base rate loans. The applicable margin for the Revolver ranges from 0.725% to 1.400% per annum for SOFR-based loans and letters of credit and 0.00% to 0.40% per annum for base rate loans. In addition to the interest payable on amounts outstanding under the Revolver, we are
required to pay an applicable credit facility fee, on each lender's commitment amount under the Revolver, regardless of usage. The applicable credit facility fee ranges from 0.125% to 0.300% per annum, depending on our leverage ratio and investment grade ratings.
In addition, the Credit Agreement also features a sustainability-linked pricing component that can periodically adjust the applicable margin by -0.04%, zero or 0.04% and adjust the applicable credit facility fee by -0.01%, zero or 0.01%, depending on our achievement of the annual sustainability performance metrics. During 2025, the sustainability-linked pricing adjustment was zero for both the applicable margin and credit facility fee. In January 2026, after certifying that our sustainability performance targets were met for 2025, the applicable margin decreased by 0.040% to 0.685% for the Revolver and to 0.760% for the Term Facility, and the credit facility fee decreased by 0.010% to 0.115%.
The Revolver and the Term Facility may be voluntarily prepaid in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty. Amounts borrowed under the Term Facility and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.
The Credit Agreement contains usual and customary events of default including defaults in the payment of principal, interest or fees, defaults in compliance with the covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement and other loan documentation, cross-defaults to certain other indebtedness, and bankruptcy and other insolvency defaults. If an event of default occurs and is continuing under the Credit Agreement, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding loans, together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owing in respect thereof, may be declared immediately due and payable.
In connection with the amendment of the Credit Agreement, we recognized debt extinguishment and modification expenses of $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2025, which is comprised of a $0.2 million loss on extinguishment of debt from the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs attributable to previous creditors in the Revolver that were not included in the Credit Agreement and $0.1 million of third-party fees associated with the modification of the $400 Million Term Loan.
As of December 31, 2025, we did not have any borrowings outstanding under the Revolver and had $4.6 million outstanding in letters of credit that reduced our borrowing capacity, leaving $1.245 billion available for future borrowings.
