Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the specific terms of the "customer contract" driving the $2.6 billion capital expenditure requirement.
- Review the full Credit Agreement (Exhibit 10.1) for detailed negative covenants and events of default not summarized in the 8-K.
- Monitor the "Contract Realization Ratio" covenant, as it ties debt compliance directly to the performance of the specific customer contract.
- Assess the impact of the 0.50% undrawn fee on liquidity if the full $2.6 billion is not drawn immediately.
- Confirm the status of the Parent Guarantee and Pledge Agreement (Exhibit 10.2) regarding the scope of assets pledged.
