Loans Payable
The following is a summary of our loans payable as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 (in thousands):
Unsecured Line of Credit
On May 7, 2026, we entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) to expand and extend our existing unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”). The Facility is syndicated with three banks, BMO Capital Markets Corp. (“BMO”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”) and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo”) as joint lead arrangers and joint book runners, with BMO Bank, N.A. as administrative agent. The Facility provides for $260 million in available borrowings with a $340 million accordion feature, bringing the total potential availability up to $600 million, subject to certain conditions including obtaining commitments from additional lenders. The Amendment also extends the maturity date of the Facility from November 7, 2026 to May 7, 2030, with a further one-year extension available at our option, subject to certain conditions including payment of an extension fee. Availability under the amended Facility is limited to 60% of the value of a pool of unencumbered communities owned 100% by us. The value of these unencumbered communities increased through the reduction of the capitalization rate from 6.5% to now 6.0% applied to the Net Operating Income (“NOI”) generated by these unencumbered communities. Interest is based on the Company’s overall leverage ratio and has been reduced by approximately 35 to 40 basis points, depending on the Company’s overall leverage ratio, and is now equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 1.30% to 1.90%, or BMO’s prime lending rate plus 0.30% to 0.90%.
Series A Bonds
On February 6, 2022, the Company issued $102.7 million of its new 4.72% Series A Bonds due 2027, or the 2027 Bonds, in an offering to investors in Israel. The Company received $98.7 million, net of offering expenses. The 2027 Bonds are unsecured obligations of the Company denominated in New Israeli Shekels (NIS) and were issued pursuant to a Deed of Trust dated January 31, 2022 between the Company and Reznik Paz Nevo Trusts Ltd., an Israeli trust company, as trustee. The 2027 Bonds pay interest at a rate of 4.72% per year. Interest on the 2027 Bonds is payable semi-annually on August 31, 2022, and on February 28 and August 31 of the years 2023-2026 (inclusive) and on the final maturity date of February 28, 2027. The principal and interest will be linked to the U.S. Dollar. In the event of a future downgrade by two or more notches in the rating of the 2027 Bonds or a failure by the Company to comply with certain covenants in the Deed of Trust, the interest rate on the 2027 Bonds will be subject to increase. However, any such increases, in the aggregate, would not exceed 1.25% per annum. As of June 30, 2026, the Company is in compliance with these covenants.
Under the Deed of Trust, the Company has the right to redeem the 2027 Bonds, in whole or in part, at any time on or after 60 days from February 9, 2022, the date on which the 2027 Bonds were listed for trading on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (the “TASE”). Any such voluntary early redemption by the Company will require payment of the applicable early redemption amount calculated in accordance with the Deed of Trust. The Company does not intend to redeem the 2027 Bonds prior to maturity. Upon the occurrence of an event of default or certain other events, including a delisting of the 2027 Bonds by the TASE, the Company may be required to effect an early repayment or redemption of all or a portion of the 2027 Bonds at their par value, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The Deed of Trust permits the Company, subject to certain conditions, to issue additional 2027 Bonds without obtaining approval of the holders of the 2027 Bonds.
The 2027 Bonds are general unsecured obligations of the Company and rank equal in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future unsecured indebtedness. The Deed of Trust includes certain customary covenants, including financial covenants requiring the Company to maintain certain ratios of debt to net operating income, to shareholders’ equity and to earnings, and customary events of default. The 2027 Bonds and the Series A Deed of Trust are in the Hebrew language and are governed by the laws of the State of Israel. The 2027 Bonds were offered solely to investors outside the United States and were not offered to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933).
Series B Bonds
On July 22, 2025, the Company issued approximately $80.2 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.85% Series B Bonds Due 2030 (the “Series B Bonds”) in an offering to investors in Israel. The Company received $75.1 million, net of offering discounts, fees and other transaction costs. The Series B Bonds were issued pursuant to a Deed of Trust between the Company and Reznik Paz Nevo Trusts Ltd., an Israeli trust company, as trustee (the “Trustee”), dated July 18, 2025 (the “Series B Deed of Trust”). The Series B Bonds are unsecured obligations of the Company denominated in NIS and rank pari passu with the Series A Bonds and all other unsecured obligations of the Company.
Principal of the Series B Bonds will be payable on June 30, 2030. The Company will pay interest on the Series B Bonds at a rate of 5.85% per annum, payable semi-annually on June 30 and December 31 of each year, beginning December 31, 2025 and continuing through the maturity date. Payments of principal and interest will be made in NIS and will be adjusted for changes in the exchange rate of the U.S. Dollar to the NIS as of each payment date. In the event of any future downgrade by two or more notches in the rating of the Series B Bonds (or if the Series B Bonds cease to be rated due to a failure by the Company to comply with certain reporting and other obligations under the Series B Deed of Trust), the interest rate on the Series B Bonds will be subject to increase by up to 1.25% per annum. In addition, the interest rate on the Series B Bonds will be subject to increase by up to 0.5% per annum upon any failure by the Company to comply with certain financial covenants in the Series B Deed of Trust. The maximum aggregate additional interest payable on the Series B Bonds as a result of any such downgrades (or cessation of rating) and/or any such failures to comply with financial covenants would not exceed a rate of 1.5% per annum. Following any such increase in the interest rate, in the event of a subsequent upgrade or reinstatement of rating and/or compliance with such financial covenants, the interest rate will be reduced. As of June 30, 2026, the Company is in compliance with these covenants.
The Series B Deed of Trust includes certain customary covenants, including financial covenants requiring the Company to maintain specified ratios of debt to net operating income, to shareholders’ equity and to earnings, and customary events of default. In addition, if the Company is not in compliance with one or more of the financial covenants, it will be restricted from making dividend payments other than those necessary to comply with the requirements to maintain its status as a REIT for income tax purposes. The covenants and events of default in the Series B Deed of Trust are substantially similar to those in the Series A Deed of Trust except that the threshold amount for an event of default involving the appointment of a receiver over the Company or its assets has been lowered from 50% to 35% of total assets of the Company.
Under the Series B Deed of Trust, the Company has the right to redeem the Series B Bonds, in whole or in part, at any time on or after 60 days from July 22, 2025, the date on which the Series B Bonds were listed for trading on the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange. The Company does not intend to redeem the Series B Bonds prior to its 2030 maturity.
The Series B Bonds and the Series B Deed of Trust are in the Hebrew language and are governed by the laws of the State of Israel. The Series B Bonds were offered solely to investors outside the United States and were not offered to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. Persons (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act).
