Easterly Government Properties, Inc. (NYSE: DEA) (the “Company” or “Easterly”), a fully integrated real estate investment trust (“REIT”) focused primarily on the acquisition, development and management of Class A commercial properties leased to the U.S. Government and its adjacent partners, announced today it has amended and upsized its $174.5 million senior unsecured term loan agreement, originally executed in 2018 and amended in 2021 (the “2018 Term Loan”) to $200.0 million.

Easterly extended the maturity date of the 2018 Term Loan to August 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 August 2030. Easterly also secured a new accordion feature of $100 million, which provides additional capacity.

“We are pleased to share the increased commitment by our lender group,” said Allison E. Marino, Easterly’s Chief Financial Officer. “Easterly continues to demonstrate its access to capital at competitive terms, while simultaneously increasing balance sheet capacity and creating the framework for future borrowing availability. This positions the Company to fund future accretive growth over the coming years.”

Borrowings under the amended 2018 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 2018 Term Loan’s initial spread to SOFR is set at 1.45%.

Citibank, N.A., PNC Capital Markets LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, U.S. Bank National Association, and Truist Securities, Inc. served as joint lead arrangers, joint bookrunners, and syndication agents on the 2018 Term Loan. Citibank, N.A. served as administrative agent.
