2024 Unsecured Bonds

In September 2024, we issued our $300.0 million senior unsecured bonds in the Nordic bond market (“2024 Unsecured Bonds”). The 2024 Unsecured Bonds will mature in September 2029 and bear interest at 7.75% per annum. The net proceeds from the 2024 Unsecured Bonds will be used to fund existing debt maturities, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes.
Contemporaneous with the closing of the 2024 Unsecured Bonds, we repurchased $10.3 million of the 2021 Unsecured Bonds at 101.25% of par, for a total consideration of $10.7 million, inclusive of $0.3 million accrued interest.
