New £165m 10 year facility agreed

Simplifies debt profile and increases average maturity to over 6 years

Regional REIT Limited (LSE: RGL) is pleased to announce today it has agreed a new £165m secured 10-year facility ('The New Facility') with Scottish Widows Limited and Aviva Investors Real Estate Finance, arranged by Bank of Scotland plc.

The New Facility replaces five existing secured debt facilities thereby reducing the number of Group debt facilities from nine to five. It also increases the average maturity of the group debt to 6.2 yearsfrom 2.5 years.

The New Facility has a very competitive fixed rate which will be set on the date of drawdown and is anticipated to be 330 bps to 340 bps, resulting in the Group cost of borrowing, including hedging, remaining at c.380 bps.

This refinancing follows the recently announced £52.4m 5-year facility agreed with Santander UK.

Stephen Inglis, Chief Executive Officer of London & Scottish Investments, the Asset Manager of Regional REIT, commented: 'This refinancing simplifies our balance sheet, lengthens the average maturity of our debt, and better aligns our financing arrangements to our real estate strategy. The two refinancings announced in the last two weeks and the proposed transaction announced on 4 December, demonstrate the momentum building at Regional REIT as we enter the next stage of growth.'
