On July 12, 2017, Four Corners Operating Partnership, LP (“Four Corners”), the operating partnership of Four Corners Property Trust, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into two interest rate swaps pursuant to an International Swaps and Derivatives Association Master Agreement with J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. One swap has a fixed notional value of $100.0 million with an effective date of November 9, 2018 and a maturity date of November 9, 2021 and where the fixed rate paid by Four Corners is 1.960% and the variable rate received resets monthly to the one month LIBOR rate. The second swap has a fixed notional value of $100.0 million with an effective date of November 9, 2020 and a maturity date of November 9, 2023 and where the fixed rate paid by Four Corners is 2.302% and the variable rate received resets monthly to the one month LIBOR rate. These hedging agreements were entered into to mitigate the interest rate risk inherent in Four Corners’ variable rate debt and are not for trading purposes.
