Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

To hedge our interest rate risk, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement on our variable rate secured bonds with a notional amount of $25.0 million. The interest rate cap agreement limits the variable portion of the interest rate (SOFR) on this bond to 2.5325% until September 30, 2026. 

We are exposed to foreign currency risk against our functional currency, the U.S. dollar ("USD"), on our six Canadian properties and the rents received from tenants of the properties are payable in the Canadian dollar ("CAD"). In order to hedge our CAD denominated cash flows and our net investment in our six Canadian properties, we entered into cross-currency swaps designated as cash flow hedges and foreign currency forwards designated as net investment hedges as further described below.
