On October 6, 2021, Healthcare Trust of America, Inc. (NYSE: HTA) (“HTA”) and Healthcare Trust of America Holdings, LP our (“Operating Partnership”, and together with HTA, the “Company”), as borrowers, entered into a third amended and restated revolving credit and term loan agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (“JPMorgan”), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, U.S. Bank National Association, Capital One, National Association, PNC Bank, National Association and Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agents, Bank of Montreal, The Bank of Nova Scotia, Fifth Third Bank, National Association, Mizuho Bank, LTD., Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., MUFG Bank, LTD. and Regions Bank, as documentation agents, and the lenders named therein to obtain an unsecured revolving credit facility in an aggregate maximum principal amount of $1,000,000,000 (the “Revolver”) and a term loan facility in an aggregate maximum principal amount of $300,000,000 (the “Term Loan”). The proceeds of the loans made under the Credit Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes, including the financing of working capital needs, acquisitions and repayment of debt. The Credit Agreement also allows the Company to obtain letters of credit as a sublimit under the Revolver of up to $65,000,000. The Revolver and Term Loan will mature in October 2025, and the Revolver and Term Loan are each extendable by two, six-month periods.
Subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the maximum principal amount of the Credit Agreement may be increased up to $750,000,000, for a total principal amount of $2,050,000,000, subject to such additional financing being offered and provided by existing lenders or new lenders under the Credit Agreement.
Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, borrowings under the Revolver will bear interest at a per annum rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 0.725% to 1.60% based on the Company’s credit rating. Borrowings under the Term Loan will bear interest at a per annum rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 0.80% to 1.6% based on the Company's credit rating. Accrued interest under the Credit Agreement is payable quarterly and at maturity. The Credit Agreement also provides for borrowing at a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.40% with respect to the Revolver and a base rate plus a margin of 0.00% to 0.60% with respect to the Term Loan, each based on the Company's credit rating. The Company is required to pay a facility fee on the lenders’ commitments under the Revolver at a per annum rate ranging from 0.125% to 0.30% based on the Company’s credit rating. The Credit Agreement includes customary LIBOR replacement terms and contains a sustainability-linked feature, which allows for a reduction in pricing upon the Company’s realization of certain sustainability ratings.
The Credit Agreement requires compliance with certain financial and operating covenants that we believe are usual for facilities and transactions of this type, including, among other things: a maximum ratio of total indebtedness to total asset value; a maximum ratio of secured indebtedness to total asset value; a minimum ratio of EBITDA to fixed charges; a maximum ratio of unsecured indebtedness to unencumbered asset value; and a minimum ratio of unencumbered net operating income minus capital reserves to unsecured interest expense. The Revolver and Term Loan also contains customary events of default, including, but not limited to, non-payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts, breaches of covenants and bankruptcy or other insolvency events. We are also restricted from making distributions to our stockholders in the event we are in default under the Credit Agreement, except to the extent necessary for us to maintain our REIT status.
The Credit Agreement amends and restates, in its entirety, the Second Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement dated as of July 27, 2017, by and among us, the Company, the lenders party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent.
The material terms of the Credit Agreement is subject to and qualified in its entirety by the Credit Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
