amended its $500,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Facility") to, among other things, extend the maturity date of the Facility to March 30, 2024, with a provision to extend the maturity date for two consecutive six-month periods, at its option. Borrowing rates are at a margin over LIBOR, plus a facility fee, and the borrowing margin is LIBOR plus 82.5 basis points. Both the borrowing margin and facility fee are priced off a grid that is tied to our senior unsecured credit ratings. The Facility also contains a competitive bid option that will allow us to request bids for up to $250 million, along with an accordion feature, which allows us to increase the Facility amount up to $850 million. We intend to use the proceeds from such Facility to fund acquisition and new development activities, and for general corporate purposes. </span></div><div

Item 1.01.
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 11, 2019, Weingarten Realty Investors, a Texas real estate investment trust, amended its $500,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Facility") to, among other things, extend the maturity date of the Facility to March 30, 2024, with a provision to extend the maturity date for two consecutive six-month periods, at its option. Borrowing rates are at a margin over LIBOR, plus a facility fee, and the borrowing margin is LIBOR plus 82.5 basis points. Both the borrowing margin and facility fee are priced off a grid that is tied to our senior unsecured credit ratings. The Facility also contains a competitive bid option that will allow us to request bids for up to $250 million, along with an accordion feature, which allows us to increase the Facility amount up to $850 million. We intend to use the proceeds from such Facility to fund acquisition and new development activities, and for general corporate purposes.
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and BofA Securities, Inc., serve as joint bookrunners and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., BofA Securities, Inc., U.S. Bank National Association, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and PNC Capital Markets LLC, serve as joint lead arrangers; JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent; Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent; and U.S. Bank National Association, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, PNC Bank, National Association, Regions Bank, The Bank of Nova Scotia, and Truist Bank, as documentation agents.
