BLOOMFIELD HILLS, Mich., Nov. 6, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Agree Realty Corporation (NYSE: ADC) (the "Company") today announced that on November 2, 2018, it entered into a pricing amendment in connection with its $40 million unsecured term loan (the "Term Loan") maturing July 1, 2023. The amendment provides a new pricing grid over LIBOR, determined by the Company's credit rating. As a result of the amendment, the Company anticipates the interest rate on the unsecured Term Loan will be reduced to a fixed rate of 2.40%, from a previous fixed rate of 3.05%. The Company had previously fixed LIBOR for the entire period of the Term Loan.

The Term Loan is led by Capital One, National Association, which serves as the Administrative Agent. Raymond James Bank, N.A. also participated in the Term Loan.

"We are very pleased with the improved pricing of our Term Loan and the continued support of our bank group," said Clay Thelen, Chief Financial Officer of Agree Realty Corporation. "Given our recent receipt of an investment grade credit rating, we will continue to evaluate opportunities for interest savings while maintaining our conservative approach to the balance sheet."
