Events of default include nonpayment, breach of covenants, and bankruptcy/insolvency. If an event of default occurs, the Trustee or holders of at least 25% of the Notes may declare the principal immediately due and payable. The filing does not contain specific management commentary on future outlook or other contingencies beyond the terms of the Notes.
