Amerco Real Estate Company and certain of its subsidiaries and U-Haul Company of Florida are borrowers under a Real Estate Loan. As of June 30, 2017, the outstanding balance on the Real Estate Loan was $166.8 million. The Real Estate Loan requires monthly principal and interest payments, with the unpaid loan balance and accrued and unpaid interest due at maturity. The Real Estate Loan is secured by various properties owned by the borrowers. The final maturity of the term loan is April 2023.

At June 30, 2017, the applicable LIBOR was 1.12% and the applicable margin was 1.50%, the sum of which was 2.62%, which was applied to $39.0 million of the Real Estate Loan. The rate of the remaining balance of $127.8 million of the Real Estate Loan is hedged with an interest rate swap fixing the rate at 6.93% based on current margin. The interest rate swap expires in August 2018, after which date the remaining balance will incur interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a margin of 1.50%.
