The use of interest rate swap agreements carries risks, including the risk that the counterparties to these agreements are not able to perform. To mitigate this risk, the Company enters into interest rate swap agreements with counterparties with high credit ratings and with major financial institutions with which the Company and its affiliates may also have other financial relationships. The Company does not currently anticipate that any of the counterparties to the Company’s interest rate swap agreements will fail to meet their obligations. As of September 30, 2026, there were no events of default related to the Company’s interest rate swap agreements.
