## Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 21, 2025, Easterly Government Properties, Inc. (the "Company"), its operating partnership, Easterly Government Properties LP (the "Operating Partnership"), and certain subsidiaries of the Operating Partnership entered into a fifth amendment (the "Term Loan Amendment") to its second amended and restated credit agreement, dated as of July 23, 2021 (as amended, restated, or otherwise modified from time to time, the "2021 Credit Agreement"), with Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent and the banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders party thereto (collectively, the "Lenders"). The 2021 Credit Agreement provides for (i) a $200.0 million senior unsecured term loan (the "2018 Term Loan") and (ii) a $450.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the "2021 Revolver"). As previously reported on the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 5, 2024, the component of the 2021 Credit Agreement providing for the 2021 Revolver was terminated effective as of June 3, 2024.

The Term Loan Amendment extends the maturity date of the 2018 Term Loan from July 23, 2026 to August 21, 2028, or such later date pursuant to two one-year extension options exercisable by the Company in its discretion, subject to certain conditions, including the payment of a fee. The Term Loan Amendment also removes the minimum consolidated tangible net worth financial covenant and includes an accordion feature that provides the Company with additional capacity, subject to the satisfaction of customary terms and conditions, of up to $100.0 million. Other than the foregoing, the material terms of the 2021 Credit Agreement remain unchanged. After giving effect to borrowings on the date of the Term Loan Amendment, the $200.0 million initially committed Term Loan is fully drawn.

Certain of the banks and financial institutions that are parties to the 2021 Credit Agreement and their respective affiliates have in the past provided, are currently providing, and in the future may continue to provide investment banking, commercial banking and other financial services to the Company and its affiliates in the ordinary course of business for which they have received and will receive customary compensation.

**EASTERLY GOVERNMENT PROPERTIES AMENDS AND UPSIZES 2018 SENIOR UNSECURED TERM LOAN AGREEMENT**

WASHINGTON, D.C. – August 21, 2025 – Easterly Government Properties, Inc. (NYSE: DEA) (the "Company" or "Easterly"), a fully integrated real estate investment trust ("REIT") focused primarily on the acquisition, development and management of Class A commercial properties leased to the U.S. Government and its adjacent partners, announced today it has amended and upsized its $174.5 million senior unsecured term loan agreement, originally executed in 2018 and amended in 2021 (the "2018 Term Loan") to $200.0 million.

Easterly extended the maturity date of the 2018 Term Loan to August 2028. Further, the Company may exercise at its discretion two one-year extension options, subject to certain conditions, thus extending the maturity date as late as August 2030. Easterly also secured a new accordion feature of $100 million, which provides additional capacity.

"We are pleased to share the increased commitment by our lender group," said Allison E. Marino, Easterly's Chief Financial Officer. "Easterly continues to demonstrate its access to capital at competitive terms, while simultaneously increasing balance sheet capacity and creating the framework for future borrowing availability. This positions the Company to fund future accretive growth over the coming years."

Borrowings under the amended 2018 Term Loan will continue to bear interest at a rate of SOFR, a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, plus a spread of 1.20% to 1.70%, depending on the Company's leverage ratio. Given the Company's current leverage ratio, the amended 2018 Term Loan's initial spread to SOFR is set at 1.45%.

Citibank, N.A., PNC Capital Markets LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, U.S. Bank National Association, and Truist Securities, Inc. served as joint lead arrangers, joint bookrunners, and syndication agents on the 2018 Term Loan. Citibank, N.A. served as administrative agent.
