Brookdale Senior Living Inc. announced that the Company has recently completed two financing transactions, which refinanced all of its remaining 2024 debt maturities. After giving effect to these transactions, the Company's next debt maturity without extension options is September 2025. The Company has also made significant progress on a financing transaction involving eleven of its currently unencumbered owned communities, which it expects to complete in the coming months.

In December 2023, Brookdale obtained a $180 million loan under its Master Credit Facility Agreement, dated as of August 31, 2017. The financing with Jones Lang LaSalle Multifamily, LLC was obtained pursuant to Fannie Mae's DUS Program. The principal amount of the new debt is secured by non-recourse first mortgages on 47 communities, which also continue to secure approximately $580 million of additional outstanding mortgages with a later maturity.

The $180 million loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 5.97% and matures in 2031. The facility includes certain "borrow-up" provisions, which the Company expects will enable it to obtain additional funding in 2024 under the loan based on the performance of the underlying communities. At the closing, the Company repaid $260 million of debt under the facility, which was scheduled to mature in 2024, using proceeds from the $180 million loan and cash on hand.

In December 2023, the Company also amended its revolving credit agreement with Capital One, National Association, as administrative agent and lender and the other lenders from time to time parties thereto. The amended agreement provides an expanded commitment of up to $100 million which can be drawn in cash or as letters of credit and represents a $20 million increase from the previously existing commitment. Available capacity under the facility will vary from time to time based upon certain calculations related to the appraised value and performance of the communities securing the credit facility and the variable interest rate of the credit facility.

The amended credit facility matures in January 2027, and the Company has options to extend the facility to March 2028 and March 2029 subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Amounts drawn under the facility bear interest at SOFR plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin varies based on the percentage of the total commitment drawn, with a 2.50% margin at utilization equal to or lower than 50% and a 3.00% margin at utilization greater than 50%.
