Unsecured Debt Senior Unsecured Notes The following table sets forth certain information regarding our outstanding senior unsecured notes (in millions, except for statistical information). All senior unsecured notes include interest payments on a semi-annual basis in arrears, and are recorded in the Unsecured debt line item on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Carrying Amount Principal Amount September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 5.7% notes, issued in January 2023 and due in January 2033 (1) $ 400.0 $ 395.6 N/A 4.2% notes, issued in April 2022 and due in April 2032 600.0 592.4 591.8 2.3% notes, issued in October 2021 and due in November 2028 450.0 446.6 446.2 2.7% notes, issued in June 2021 and October 2021, and due in July 2031 750.0 742.3 741.6 Total $ 2,200.0 $ 2,176.9 $ 1,779.6 (1) In January 2023, the Operating Partnership issued $400.0 million of senior unsecured notes with an interest rate of 5.7% and a 10-year term, due January 15, 2033 (the "2033 Notes"). Interest on the notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on July 15, 2023. The net proceeds from the offering were $395.3 million, after deducting underwriters' discounts and estimated offering expenses. We used the net proceeds from the offering to repay borrowings outstanding under our Senior Credit Facility. Line of Credit In April 2022, the Operating Partnership (as borrower), SUI (as guarantor), and certain lenders entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Other Loan Documents (the "Credit Facility Amendment"), which amended our senior credit facility (the "Senior Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility Amendment increased the aggregate amount of our Senior Credit Facility to $4.2 billion with the ability to upsize the total borrowings by an additional $800.0 million, subject to certain conditions. The increased aggregate amount under the Senior Credit Facility consists of the following: (a) a revolving loan in an amount up to $3.05 billion and (b) a term loan facility of $1.15 billion, with the ability to draw funds from the combined facilities in U.S. dollars, Pound sterling, Euros, Canadian dollars and Australian dollars, subject to certain limitations. The Credit Facility Amendment extended the maturity date of the revolving loan facility to April 7, 2026. At our option that maturity date may be extended two additional six-month periods. In addition, the Credit Facility Amendment established the maturity date of the term loan facility under the Credit Facility Amendment as April 7, 2025, which may not be further extended. The Senior Credit Facility bears interest at a floating rate based on the Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate, the Australian Bank Bill Swap Bid Rate ("BBSY"), the Daily Sterling Overnight Index Average ("SONIA") Rate or the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate, as applicable, plus a margin, in all cases, which can range from 0.725% to 1.6%, subject to certain adjustments. As of September 30, 2023, the margins based on our credit ratings were 0.85% on the revolving loan facility and 0.95% on the term loan facility. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and year ended December 31, 2022, we achieved sustainability related requirements resulting in a favorable 0.04% and 0.01% adjustments, respectively, to both margins. At the lenders' option, the Senior Credit Facility will become immediately due and payable upon an event of default under the Credit Facility Amendment. We had $1.0 billion and $1.1 billion of borrowings outstanding under the revolving loan as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. We also had $1.1 billion of borrowings outstanding under the term loan on the Senior Credit Facility as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. These balances are recorded in Unsecured debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Senior Credit Facility provides us with the ability to issue letters of credit. Our issuance of letters of credit does not increase our borrowings outstanding under the Senior Credit Facility, but does reduce the borrowing amount available. We had $16.7 million and $2.6 million of outstanding letters of credit at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Unsecured Term Loan In October 2019, we assumed a $58.0 million secured term loan facility related to an acquisition. The term loan initially had a four-year term ending October 29, 2023, and bore interest at a floating rate based on the Eurodollar rate or Prime rate plus a margin ranging from 1.2% to 2.05%. Effective July 1, 2021, we amended the agreement to release the associated collateral, extend the term loan facility maturity date to October 29, 2025 and adjust the interest rate margin to a range from 0.8% to 1.6%. In August 2022, we amended the secured term loan facility to transition from the Eurodollar rate to SOFR. As of September 30, 2023, the margin based on our credit rating was 0.95%. The outstanding balance was $9.2 million at September 30, 2023 and $19.8 million at December 31, 2022, respectively. In accordance with the amended agreement, we achieved sustainability related requirements resulting in a favorable 0.01% adjustment to the margins. These balances are recorded in Unsecured debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Preferred Equity - Sun NG Resorts - Mandatorily Redeemable In connection with the investment in Sun NG Resorts in June 2018, unrelated third parties purchased $35.3 million of mandatorily redeemable Preferred Equity ("Preferred Equity - Sun NG Resorts") that carries a preferred rate of return of 6.0% per annum and has a seven-year term ending June 1, 2025. If we terminate the property management agreement related to the property, we must acquire NG Sun LLC's interest in such property, which, in addition to its Series B preferred equity interests and common equity interests allocated to such property, may include its and certain unrelated third parties' Preferred Equity - Sun NG Resorts allocated to such property. The Preferred Equity - Sun NG Resorts as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, was $35.2 million. This balance is recorded in Unsecured debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 7, "Consolidated Variable Interest Entities," and Note 9, "Equity and Temporary Equity," for additional information. Preferred OP Units - Mandatorily Redeemable At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, our Preferred OP units include $8.5 million and $34.0 million of Aspen preferred OP units. These balances are recorded in Unsecured debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of September 30, 2023, 314,934 of Aspen preferred OP units were outstanding and convertible into 104,544 common OP units. In January 2020, we amended the Operating Partnership's partnership agreement to extend the automatic redemption date and reduce the annual distribution rate for 270,000 of the Aspen preferred OP units (the "Extended Units"). The Extended Units redemption date was extended to January 1, 2034, and their distribution rate was lowered to 3.8%. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, all of the Extended Units, representing $7.3 million of unsecured debt, converted into common equity. For the remaining Aspen preferred OP units, subject to certain limitations, at any time prior to January 1, 2024, the holder of each Aspen preferred OP unit may, at its option, convert such unit into: (a) if the average closing price of our common stock for the preceding ten trading days is $68.00 per share or less, 0.397 common OP units; or (b) if the 10-day average closing price is greater than $68.00 per share, a number of common OP units determined by dividing (i) the sum of (A) $27.00 plus (B) 25.0% of the amount by which the 10-day average closing price exceeds $68.00 per share, by (ii) the 10-day average closing price. The current preferred distribution rate on the remaining Aspen preferred OP units is 6.5%. On January 2, 2024, we are required to redeem for cash all Aspen preferred OP units that have not been converted to common OP units. During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, unit holders converted 673,885 of the remaining Aspen preferred OP units, representing $18.2 million of unsecured debt, into common equity and common OP units. Refer to Note 9, "Equity and Temporary Equity," for additional details related to Aspen preferred OP unit conversions . Covenants The mortgage term loans, senior unsecured notes and Senior Credit Facility are subject to various financial and other covenants. The most restrictive covenants are pursuant to (a) the terms of the Senior Credit Facility, which contains a maximum leverage ratio, minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and maximum secured leverage ratio, and (b) the terms of the senior unsecured notes, which contain a total debt to total assets ratio, secured debt to total assets ratio, consolidated income available for debt service to debt service ratio and unencumbered total asset value to unsecured debt ratio. At September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all financial covenants. In addition, certain of our subsidiary borrowers own properties that secure loans. These subsidiaries are consolidated within our accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements, however, each of these subsidiaries' assets and credit are not available to satisfy our debts and other obligations, and any of our other subsidiaries or any other person or entity.
