The Borrower has requested that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders make amendments to certain provisions of the Loan Agreement and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are willing to make such amendments to the Loan Agreement in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the agreements hereinafter set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
“(d) Extension Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent on each Extension Date, for the account of each Lender, a Facility extension fee, in an amount equal to 0.15% of the aggregate principal balance of each Lender’s Commitment then outstanding (the “Extension Fee”).”
“Section 2.16 Extensions of the Maturity Date. The Borrower may request, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, (a) at least 30 days but not more than 90 days prior to the Maturity Date, a twelve month extension of the Maturity Date with respect to the Commitments then outstanding and (b) thereafter, at least 30 days but not more than 90 days prior to the Maturity Date (as extended pursuant to clause (a) of this sentence) a single additional twelve month extension of the Maturity Date with respect to the Commitments then outstanding (each, an “Extension Request”). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such Extension Request and the Maturity Date in effect at such time shall, effective as of the applicable Extension Date (as defined below), be extended for an additional twelve month period, provided that, on such Extension Date the Administrative Agent shall have received (i) payment in full of the Extension Fee set forth in Section 2.08(d) and (ii) such certificates or other information as may be required pursuant to Section 3.02. “Extension Date” means, in the case of each extension option, the first date after the delivery by the Borrower of the related Extension Request that the conditions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence are satisfied. In the event that an extension is effected pursuant to this Section 2.16 (but subject to provisions of Sections 2.05, 2.06 and 6.01), the aggregate principal amount of all Advances in respect of the Facility shall be repaid in full ratably to the applicable Lenders on the Maturity Date as so extended. As of the Extension Date, any and all references in this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to the “Maturity Date” shall refer to the Maturity Date as so extended.
“(i) in no event shall the aggregate amount of the Facility at any time exceed $350,000,000 and”
“Section 3.02 Conditions Precedent to Each Borrowing, Extension and Increase. The obligation of each Lender to make an Advance on the occasion of each Borrowing (including the Initial Borrowing) and the right of the Borrower to request an extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to Section 2.16 or a Commitment Increase pursuant to Section 2.17 shall be subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.01 (to the extent not previously satisfied pursuant to that Section) and such further conditions precedent that on the date of such Borrowing, Extension Date or increase (i) (A) the Administrative Agent shall have received for the account of such Lender a Notice of Borrowing, a notice requesting an extension of the Maturity Date or a notice requesting a Commitment Increase and (B) the following statements shall be true and the Administrative Agent shall have received for the account of such Lender (to the extent not previously included in an applicable
2
Notice of Borrowing) a certificate signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, dated the date of such Borrowing, Extension Date or increase, stating that:
(a) the representations and warranties contained in each Loan Document are true and correct on and as of such date in all material respects (unless qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all respects and except to the extent any such representation or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty shall have been true and correct on and as of such earlier date, and except further to the extent any such representations and warranties that are no longer true and correct as a result of factual changes since the Closing Date that are permitted under this Agreement), before and after giving effect to (1) such Borrowing, extension or increase, and (2) in the case of any Borrowing, the application of the proceeds therefrom, as though made on and as of such date (except to the extent any such representation or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty shall have been true and correct on and as of such earlier date);
(b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or would result from (1) such Borrowing, extension or increase or (2) in the case of any Borrowing, from the application of the proceeds therefrom; and
(c) for each Borrowing, extension or increase, before and after giving effect to such Borrowing, extension or increase, the Parent shall be in compliance with the covenants contained in Section 5.04, together with supporting information in form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent showing the computations used in determining compliance with such covenants;
and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received such other approvals, opinions or documents as any Lender through the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to confirm (A) the accuracy of the Loan Parties’ representations and warranties contained in the Loan Documents, (B) the Loan Parties’ timely compliance with the terms, covenants and agreements set forth in the Loan Documents, (C) the absence of any Default or Event of Default and (D) the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent or any Lender or the ability of the Loan Parties to perform their Obligations under the Loan Documents.”
“Section 3.03 Determinations Under Sections 3.01 and 3.02. For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Sections 3.01 and 3.02, each Lender shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to the Lenders unless an officer of the Administrative Agent responsible for the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the Closing Date (in the case of Section 3.01) or the applicable Borrowing, Extension Date or increase (in the case of Section 3.02) specifying its objection thereto and, in the case of a
3
Borrowing, such Lender shall not have made available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing.”
“(viii) extend the Maturity Date, other than as provided by Section 2.16, without the consent of each Lender,”
“(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree, the Borrower may request a Borrowing, continuation or Conversion of Advances through the Credit Management Module of PNC’s PINACLE® system in accordance with the applicable security procedures therefor. Each request submitted through the Credit Management Module of PNC’s PINACLE® system in accordance with the applicable security procedures therefor shall be deemed delivered to the Administrative Agent (i) in the form required by Sections 2.02(a), 2.07 or 2.09, as applicable, and (ii) on the date and time such request was submitted through the Credit Management Module of PNC’s PINACLE® system.”

EASTERLY GOVERNMENT PROPERTIES AMENDS 2016 SENIOR UNSECURED
TERM LOAN AGREEMENT
WASHINGTON, D.C. – January 14, 2025 – Easterly Government Properties, Inc. (NYSE: DEA) (the “Company” or “Easterly”), a fully integrated real estate investment trust focused primarily on the acquisition, development and management of Class A commercial properties leased to the U.S. Government and its adjacent partners, today announced it has amended its $100 million senior unsecured term loan agreement, executed in 2016 (the “Amended 2016 Term Loan”).
Easterly extended the maturity date of the Amended 2016 Term Loan from January 30, 2025 to January 28, 2028. Further, the Company may exercise at its discretion two one-year extension options, subject to certain conditions, thus extending the maturity date as late as January 28, 2030. Easterly further secured increased borrowing capacity on the accordion feature from $150 million to $250 million.
“We are very pleased to have amended our 2016 Term Loan under such favorable terms,” said Allison Marino, Easterly’s Chief Financial and Chief Accounting Officer. “Thanks to our strong banking relationships and superior credit profile, we have extended the duration of our liabilities while maintaining a strong balance sheet and long-term debt capacity. This enables us to remain focused on executing a disciplined investment strategy and delivering growth to shareholders.”
In connection with the Amended 2016 Term Loan, the Company also entered into an interest rate swap to effectively fix SOFR at 3.8569% annually. By executing this swap, the Company provides greater certainty over its interest rate exposure. Borrowings under the Amended 2016 Term Loan will continue to bear interest at a rate of SOFR, a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, plus a spread of 1.20% to 1.70%, depending on the Company's leverage ratio. Given the Company's current leverage ratio, the Amended 2016 Term Loan’s initial spread to SOFR is set at 1.35%.
PNC Capital Markets LLC, U.S. Bank National Association, and Truist Securities, Inc. served as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners. PNC Bank, National Association served as the administrative agent.
