Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 25, 2025, Camden Property Trust (the “Company”) established a commercial paper program (the “Program”) pursuant to which it may issue short-term, unsecured commercial paper notes (the “Notes”) under the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Amounts available under the Program may be borrowed, repaid and re-borrowed from time to time, with the aggregate face or principal amount of the Notes outstanding under the Program at any time not to exceed $600,000,000. The Notes will have maturities of up to 397 days from the date of issue. The Notes will rank at least pari passu with all of the Company’s other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. The net proceeds of the issuances of the Notes are expected to be used for general corporate purposes, which may include property acquisitions and development in the ordinary course of business, capital expenditures and working capital. No Notes are currently outstanding under the Program.
One or more commercial paper dealers will each act as a dealer under the Program (each, a “Dealer,” and collectively, the “Dealers”) pursuant to the terms and conditions of the respective commercial paper dealer agreement entered into between the Company and each Dealer (each, a “Dealer Agreement,” and collectively, the “Dealer Agreements”). The Dealer Agreements contain customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnification provisions. A copy of the form of Dealer Agreement used in the Program is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference, and the summary of the Program herein is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Program as set forth in each Dealer Agreement.
A national bank will act as the issuing and paying agent (the “Paying Agent”) under the Program pursuant to the terms of an issuing and paying agent agreement.
In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, the Dealers and the Paying Agent and their affiliates may have engaged, and may in the future engage, in commercial banking and/or investment banking transactions with the Company and its affiliates for which they may have received, and may in the future receive, customary fees.
The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws. The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any Notes.
