Material Changes and Debt Structure
The primary material change is the creation of a new direct financial obligation. 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 equity-method entities.
- 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 any time at a price equal to the greater of 100% of the principal or a make-whole premium, plus accrued interest. On or after February 1, 2029, the redemption price is 100% of 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.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the total net proceeds received after underwriting discounts and expenses (not explicitly stated in this summary).

- Confirm the impact of the new $400 million debt on the Company's leverage ratios and interest coverage.
- Assess the Company's liquidity position to ensure ability to service the new interest payments starting October 1, 2022.
