As of March 31, 2026 there were no borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility. Key financial covenants reported as of March 31, 2026 include maximum leverage ratio <65% (actual 18.8%), minimum fixed charge coverage ratio >1.40 (actual 4.43), and maximum secured leverage ratio <40% (actual 10.1%); related covenants for senior unsecured noteholders (e.g., total debt to total assets ≤60%) were also comfortably met.
