During the fixed rate interest period from May 3, 2007 through May 14, 2017, interest was at the annual rate of 6.6%, payable semi-annually in arrears on November 15 and May 15 of each year, commencing on November 15, 2007. During the floating rate interest period from May 15, 2017 through maturity, interest was initially on the 3-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 238.5 basis points, reset quarterly, payable quarterly in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15 of each year, subject to Holdings’ right to defer interest on one or more occasions for up to ten consecutive years. Deferred interest will accumulate interest at the applicable rate compounded quarterly for periods from and including May 15, 2017. The reset quarterly interest rate for November 15, 2024 to February 18,
2025 is 7.17%. Following the cessation of LIBOR, for periods from and including August 15, 2023, interest will be based on the 3-month Chicago Mercantile Exchange Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate plus a spread.
Holdings may redeem the Subordinated Notes Issued 2007 on or after May 15, 2017, in whole or in part at 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest; however, redemption on or after the scheduled maturity date and prior to May 1, 2047 is subject to a replacement capital covenant. This covenant is for the benefit of the Senior Note holders and it mandates that Holdings receive proceeds from the sale of another subordinated debt issue, of at least similar size, before it may redeem the Subordinated Notes Issued 2007. The Company’s Senior Notes are the Company’s long-term indebtedness that rank senior to the Subordinated Notes Issued 2007.
In 2009, the Company had reduced its outstanding amount of long-term subordinated notes through the initiation of a cash tender offer for any and all of the long-term subordinated notes. In addition, the Company repurchased and retired $6 million of the outstanding long-term subordinated notes for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company realized a gain of $1 million on the repurchases made during 2022.
Interest expense incurred in connection with these long-term Subordinated Notes Issued 2007 is as follows for the periods indicated:
