SBA Communications Corporation (NASDAQ: SBAC) ("SBA" or the

Facility from $1.50 billion to $1.75 billion and extended its
maturity to January 2029. Amounts borrowed under the Revolving
Credit Facility will accrue interest at Term SOFR (with a 0% floor)
plus a margin that ranges from 112.5 basis points to 150.0 basis
points, based on SBA Senior Finance II's leverage.
Pro forma for this transaction, the weighted average maturity of
SBA’s total debt outstanding increased from 3.2 years to 4.1 years.
The interest rate swap on a portion of the 2018 Term Loan B will

the interest rate swap, the current average blended rate on the new
Term Loan B is 2.85%.
