This bond will rank equally with the company’s other first mortgage bonds.
The agreement includes customary covenants for this type of term loan, limiting liens, sale and leaseback transactions, fundamental changes, entry into swap agreements, and modifications to the mortgage indenture, with certain exceptions. The company is also required to maintain a total consolidated debt to consolidated capitalization ratio of no more than 65% at the end of each fiscal quarter.
In the event of a default, including cross-defaults on specified other debt exceeding $200 million, the administrative agent may declare the outstanding amounts and accrued interest immediately due. For defaults relating to insolvency, bankruptcy, or receivership, outstanding amounts become immediately payable.
