Phillips Edison & Company Closes on $980 Million Unsecured Credit Facility

Phillips Edison & Company, Inc. ("PECO"), an internally-managed real estate investment trust ("REIT") and one of the nation's largest owners and operators of omni-channel grocery-anchored neighborhood shopping centers, announced it has refinanced one of its term loans and secured a new revolving credit facility.

On July 2, 2021, PECO closed a new $980 million senior unsecured credit facility (the "Facility") led by PNC Bank, National Association as Administrative Agent. The Facility is comprised of a $500 million revolving credit facility (the "Revolver") and two separate $240 million unsecured variable rate term loans (the "Term Loans").

Proceeds from the Term Loans are being used to repay an existing term loan at a reduced interest rate. The first $240 million term loan has a maturity in November 2025, and the second $240 million term loan has a maturity in July 2026. Borrowings will bear interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 125 basis points, subject to the continuation of PECO's covenant leverage, which rate is 40 basis points lower than the refinanced term loan that had a maturity of November 2025.

The Revolver has a maturity in January 2026, with options for PECO to extend the maturity for two additional six-month periods, replacing the previous revolving credit facility which had a maturity of October 2021. Borrowings under the Revolver will bear interest at an annual rate of LIBOR plus 135 basis points, subject to the continuation of PECO's covenant leverage, which rate is five basis points lower than the previous revolving credit facility.

To further PECO's environmental, social, and governance ("ESG") initiatives, the Revolver allows for an additional one basis point margin reduction if certain ESG targets are achieved.

The Revolver syndication was led by PNC Capital Markets LLC and KeyBanc Capital Markets as Joint Bookrunners. PNC Capital Markets LLC; KeyBanc Capital Markets; BOFA Securities, Inc.; JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A; and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC serve as Joint Lead Arrangers for the Revolver.
