On October 28, 2022, the Company entered into a $215.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility and a $90.0 million unsecured delayed-draw term loan facility. The revolving credit facility has an initial maturity of October 28, 2026 and provides two six-month extension options. The unsecured delayed-draw term loan facility has an initial maturity of October 28,

2025 and provides two one-year extension options. On December 19, 2022, the Company executed an amendment to its unsecured revolving credit facility, increasing commitments by $45.0 million for a total borrowing capacity of $260.0 million.

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company repaid the $39.3 million construction loan on the Home2 Woodland Hills hotel property, and the maturing mortgage loans of $14.4 million on the Homewood Suites San Antonio hotel property, $19.7 million on the Residence Inn Tysons hotel property, $16.0 million on the Courtyard Houston hotel property, $19.7 million on the Hyatt Place Pittsburgh hotel property, and $40.5 million on the Residence Inn Bellevue hotel property. The Company utilized cash, borrowings under its unsecured delayed-draw term loan, and proceeds from its five new mortgage loans to repay these loans.

The Company estimates the fair value of its fixed rate debt by discounting the future cash flows of each instrument at estimated market rates. All of the Company's mortgage loans are fixed-rate. Rates take into consideration general market conditions, quality and estimated value of collateral and maturity of debt with similar credit terms and are classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of the Company’s fixed rate debt as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $394.7 million and $396.0 million, respectively.

The Company estimates the fair value of its variable rate debt by taking into account general market conditions and the estimated credit terms it could obtain for debt with similar maturity and is classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. As of March 31, 2024, the Company’s variable rate debt consisted of borrowings under its revolving credit facility and its unsecured term loan. The estimated fair value of the Company’s variable rate debt as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was $90.0 million and $90.0 million, respectively.

The Company's mortgage debt agreements contain “cash trap” provisions that are triggered when the hotel’s operating results fall below a certain debt service coverage ratio or debt yield. When these provisions are triggered, all of the excess cash flow generated by the hotel is deposited directly into cash management accounts for the benefit of the lenders until a specified debt service coverage ratio or debt yield is reached. Such provisions do not allow the lender the right to accelerate repayment of the underlying debt. As of March 31, 2024, four of our mortgage debt lenders have enforced cash trap provisions resulting in $6.7 million of restricted cash. The Company does not expect that such cash traps will affect its ability to satisfy its short-term liquidity requirements.

Future scheduled principal payments of debt obligations as of March 31, 2024, for the current year and each of the next five calendar years and thereafter are as follows (in thousands):

2024 (remaining nine months)	$	295,565

Accounting for Derivative Instruments

The Company had interest rate cap agreements to hedge against interest rate fluctuations related to the construction loan for the Home2 Woodland Hills hotel property. The Company recorded its derivative instruments on the balance sheet at their estimated fair values and categorized the fair value measurement of these assets as Level 2. Changes in the fair value of the derivatives are recorded each period in current earnings or in other comprehensive income, depending on whether a derivative is designated as part of a hedging relationship and, if it is, depending on the type of hedging relationship. The Company's interest rate caps were not designated as a hedge but to eliminate the incremental cost to the Company if the one-month LIBOR were to exceed 3.5%. Accordingly, the interest rate caps were recorded on the balance sheet under prepaid expenses and other assets at the estimated fair value and realized and unrealized changes in the fair value are reported in the consolidated statement of operations. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company terminated its interest rate caps related to the construction loan when the loan was repaid.
