Note 5. Derivative Financial Instruments
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s borrowings.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt.
For derivatives designated, and that qualify, as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) ("AOCI") and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable-rate debt.
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had 15 outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:
| AMOUNT | WEIGHTED AVERAGE RATE | |
|---|---|---|
| May 2026 | $275,000 | 3.74% |
| June 2026 | 150,000 | 3.83% |
| December 2026 | 150,000 | 3.84% |
| June 2027 | 200,000 | 4.27% |
| December 2027 | 300,000 | 3.93% |
| $1,075,000 | 3.92% |

The Company estimates that an additional $1.5 million related to active interest rate swaps will be reclassified from AOCI as an increase to interest expense over the next 12 months, and that an additional $0.5 million related to settled interest rate swaps will be amortized from AOCI as an increase to interest expense over the next 12 months.
Credit-risk-related Contingent Features
The Company's agreements with each of its derivative counterparties contain a cross-default provision under which the Company could be declared in default of its derivative obligations if repayment of the underlying indebtedness is accelerated by the lender should the Company default on the indebtedness.
As of September 30, 2024, the fair value of derivatives in a net liability position including accrued interest but excluding any adjustment for nonperformance risk related to these agreements was $3.3 million. As of September 30, 2024, the Company had not posted any collateral related to these agreements and was not in breach of any agreement.

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company granted to independent directors an aggregate of 58,910 shares of non-vested stock with a grant date fair value of $0.9 million, and an aggregate of 45,982 LTIP Series D units with a grant date fair value of $0.7 million. The Company also grantednon-vested stock to other members of senior management with an aggregate grant date fair value of $0.1 million, which consisted of an aggregate of 9,350 non-vested shares.

On February 13, 2024, the Company granted an aggregate of 208,055 RSUs to members of senior management, with an aggregate grant date fair value of $3.5 million and afive-year vesting period.
On April 30, 2024, the Company granted an aggregate of 21,816 RSUs to members of senior management, with an aggregate grant date fair value of $0.3 million and afive-year vesting period.
Approximately 36% of the RSUs vest based on relative total shareholder return ("TSR") and were valued using independent specialists. The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to calculate the weighted average grant date fair value of $19.10 for the relative TSR component for the February 2024 grant using the following assumptions:
| Volatility | 28.0% |
|---|---|
| Dividend assumption | Accrued |
| Expected term | 3 years |
| Risk-free rate | 4.44% |
| Stock price (per share) | $15.22 |
The remaining 64% of the RSUs vest based upon certain operating performance conditions. With respect to the operating performance conditions of the February 13, 2024 grant, the grant date fair value was $15.22 based on the Company's share price on the date of grant.
LTIP Series C Units
On February 13, 2024, the Company granted an aggregate of 906,044 LTIP Series C units ("LTIP-C units) in the OP to its named executive officers with three-year forward-looking performance targets, afive-year vesting period and an aggregate grant date fair value of $7.5 million.
Approximately 36% of the LTIP-C units vest based on relative TSR and were valued using independent specialists. The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to calculate the weighted average grant date fair value of $9.62 for the relative TSR component for the February 2024 grant using the following assumptions:
| Volatility | 28.0% |
|---|---|
| Dividend assumption | Accrued |
| Expected term | 3 years |
| Risk-free rate | 4.44% |
| Stock price (per share) | $15.22 |
The remaining 64% of the LTIP-C units vest based upon certain operating performance conditions. With respect to the operating performance conditions of the February 13, 2024 grant, the grant date fair value was $15.22 based on the Company's share price on the date of grant. The Company records amortization expense based on the probability of achieving certain operating performance conditions, which is evaluated throughout the performance period.

Note 8. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practical to estimate that value.
Cash and cash equivalents - The carrying amount approximates fair value (level 1 inputs) due to the short-term maturity of these investments.
Real estate notes receivable - Real estate notes receivable is recorded in other assets on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Fair value is estimated using cash flow analyses, based on current interest rates for similar types of arrangements using level 2 inputs in the hierarchy. However, the fair value of three notes receivable were determined utilizing the fair value of the receivables' collateral, as the receivables are collateral-dependent, and were classified as level 3 inputs in the hierarchy.
Borrowings under the Unsecured Credit Facility and the Term Loans Due 2024 and 2026 - The carrying amount approximates fair value because the borrowings are based on variable market interest rates.
Senior Notes and Mortgage Notes payable - The fair value of notes and bonds payable is estimated using cash flow analyses, based on the Company’s current interest rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements.
Interest rate swap agreements - Interest rate swap agreements are recorded in other liabilities on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. Fair value is estimated by utilizing pricing models, level 2 inputs, which consider forward yield curves and discount rates. See Note 5 for additional information.
The table below details the fair values and carrying values for notes and bonds payable and real estate notes receivable at September 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023:
| September 30, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dollars in millions | CARRYING VALUE | FAIR VALUE | CARRYING VALUE | FAIR VALUE |
| Notes and bonds payable 1 | $4,957.8 | $4,909.5 | $4,994.9 | $4,872.7 |
| Real estate notes receivable | $121.7 | $118.2 | $173.6 | $172.5 |
1 Level 2 – model-derived valuations in which significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets.
