Material Changes and Debt Structure
The Company has increased its long-term debt obligations through the issuance of the Notes. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations ranking equally with existing senior unsecured indebtedness. However, they are effectively subordinated to:
- Existing and future mortgage indebtedness and other secured indebtedness.
- Indebtedness of subsidiaries and entities accounted for using the equity method.
- Preferred equity in subsidiaries.
The Indenture includes restrictive covenants limiting the ability to incur additional indebtedness and requiring the maintenance of a pool of unencumbered assets.
Redemption, Default, and Risks
Redemption Terms: The Issuer may redeem the Notes at its option at a price equal to the greater of 100% of the principal amount or a make-whole premium, plus accrued interest. On or after May 1, 2030, the redemption price is 100% of the principal plus accrued interest.
Events of Default: Acceleration of maturity may occur upon:
- 30-day default on interest payments.
- Default on principal or redemption price payments.
- Failure to comply with covenants within 60 days of notice.
- Default on other debt exceeding $100.0 million within 60 days of notice.
- Bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization events.
