On March 6, 2015, the Company prepaid in full a mortgage note payable of $30.4 million which was secured by one entertainment retail center.

On March 16, 2015, the Company issued $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes due on April 1, 2025 pursuant to an underwritten public offering. The notes bear interest at an annual rate of 4.50%. Interest is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year beginning on October 1, 2015 until the stated maturity date of April 1, 2025. The notes were issued at 99.638% of their face value and are unsecured and guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. The notes contain various covenants, including: (i) a limitation on incurrence of any debt which would cause the ratio of the Company’s debt to adjusted total assets to exceed 60%; (ii) a limitation on incurrence of any secured debt which would cause the ratio of the Company’s secured debt to adjusted total assets to exceed 40%; (iii) a limitation on incurrence of any debt which would cause the Company’s debt service coverage ratio to be less than 1.5 times and (iv) the maintenance at all times of the Company's total unencumbered assets such that they are not less than 150% of the Company’s outstanding unsecured debt.

On April 24, 2015, the Company amended, restated and combined its unsecured revolving credit and term loan facilities.

The amendments to the unsecured revolving portion of the new credit facility, among other things, (i) increase the initial amount from $535.0 million to $650.0 million, (ii) extend the maturity date from July 23, 2017, to April 24, 2019 (with the Company having the same right as before to extend the loan for one additional year, subject to certain terms and conditions) and (iii) lower the interest rate and facility fee pricing based on a grid related to the Company's senior unsecured credit ratings which at closing was LIBOR plus 1.25% and 0.25%, respectively. In connection with the amendment, $243 thousand of deferred financing costs (net of accumulated amortization) were written off during the three months ended June 30, 2015. At June 30, 2015, the Company had $100.0 million outstanding under this portion of the facility.

On July 24, 2015, the Company borrowed the remaining $65.0 million available on the$350.0 million term loan portion of the facility, which was used to pay down a portion of the Company's unsecured revolving credit facility.

In addition, there is a $1.0 billion accordion feature on the combined unsecured revolving credit and term loan facility that increases the maximum borrowing amount available under the combined facility, subject to lender approval, from $1.0 billion to $2.0 billion.

Subsequent to June 30, 2015, the Company issued 580,251 common shares under its Direct Stock Purchase Plan (DSPP) for net proceeds of $32.4 million, which were used to pay down a portion of the Company's unsecured revolving credit facility.
