Secured Debt Agreements, Net
5. SECURED DEBT AGREEMENTS, NET
During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we entered into agreements with our
seven
largest secured credit facility lenders, representing an aggregate
 
$7.9 
billion of our secured credit facilities as of June 30, 2020, to temporarily suspend credit mark provisions and pre-approve certain loan modifications to certain of their portfolio assets, primarily in exchange for cash repayments and pledging additional loan collateral. During the three months ended December 31, 2020, we extended the credit facility modification agreements with the
 
seven 
lenders without any further deleveraging or increased cost.
In addition, during the year ended December 31, 2020, we increased the size of one of our credit facilities and added a multi-currency facility with one of our existing lenders, providing an aggregate additional $650.0 million of credit capacity. Our secured debt agreements include secured credit facilities and a revolving credit agreement. The following table details our secured debt agreements ($ in thousands):
