The loan maturity has been extended for two years, with three additional one-year extension options, subject to certain requirements. The fixed interest rate was reduced from 5.42% to 4.25%. As part of the modification, two ground leased outparcels were released from the collateral in exchange for the addition of the redeveloped former middle anchor location.
Stephen D. Lebovitz, CBL’s chief executive officer commented, “The favorable terms of this loan extension and modification demonstrate the financial community’s confidence in CBL and our properties. We not only lengthened our maturity schedule, but significantly reduced interest expense and provided future flexibility with the release of two ground leased outparcels.
