NOTE 5 – LOANS AND MORTGAGES PAYABLE

Unsecured Line of Credit

On March 28, 2017, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement to renew and expand its existing unsecured revolving credit facility. The new unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”) is syndicated with BMO Capital Markets (“BMO”), as sole lead arranger and sole book runner, and Bank of Montreal as administrative agent. The Facility provides for $50 million in available borrowings with a $75 million accordion feature, bringing the total potential availability up to $125 million, subject to certain conditions. The maturity date of the Facility is March 27, 2020, with a one year extension option. Borrowings will bear interest at the Company’s option of LIBOR plus 1.75% to 2.50% or BMO’s prime lending rate plus 0.75% to 1.50%, based on the Company’s overall leverage. Based on the Company’s current leverage ratio, borrowings under the Facility will bear interest at LIBOR plus 2% or at BMO’s prime lending rate plus 1%. As of June 30, 2018, the amount outstanding under the Facility was $35 million and the interest rate was 3.66%.
