Revolving Credit Agreements
TDS and Array have unsecured revolving credit agreements with maximum borrowing capacities of $400.0 million and $300.0 million, respectively. Amounts under the agreements may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed from time to time until maturity. In April 2025, TDS and Array amended the revolving credit agreements to extend the maturity dates to July 2027 and allow for permitted dispositions, as specified in the amendments. The amendments also included a provision that was triggered upon the sale of the Array wireless operations to T-Mobile, which occurred on August 1, 2025, which accelerated the maturity dates to April 2026. Additionally, the amendment to the Array revolving credit agreement included a provision that will be triggered upon Array receiving net proceeds from the cumulative sale of wireless spectrum licenses to AT&T, Verizon and other parties that equals or exceeds $500.0 million, which provision will automatically reduce the maximum borrowing capacity of the Array revolving credit agreement from $300.0 million to $150.0 million five business days after Array's receipt of such net proceeds. As of September 30, 2025, there were no outstanding borrowings under the agreements, except for letters of credit, and TDS' and Array's unused borrowing capacity was $399.4 million and $299.9 million, respectively.

Receivables Securitization Agreement
Array, through its subsidiaries, had a receivables securitization agreement that permitted securitized borrowings using its equipment installment plan receivables. In May 2025, Array repaid the entire outstanding borrowings under the agreement of $2.0 million. In July 2025, Array terminated the receivables securitization agreement.
Debt Covenants
The TDS and Array revolving credit agreements, term loan agreement with CoBank and the TDS export credit financing agreement require TDS or Array, as applicable, to comply with certain affirmative and negative covenants, which include certain financial covenants that may restrict the borrowing capacity available. Following the sale of the Array wireless operations to T-Mobile, TDS and Array are required to maintain the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, based on net debt, as of the end of any fiscal quarter from and including the quarter in which such sale occurs at a level not to exceed 3.50 to 1.00. TDS and Array are also required to maintain the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio at a level not lower than 3.00 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. TDS and Array believe they were in compliance as of September 30, 2025 with all such financial covenants.
Other Long-Term Debt
The T-Mobile transaction to sell the wireless operations and select spectrum assets included a debt exchange offer whereby debt issued by Array could be exchanged for debt issued by T-Mobile, which reduced the cash portion of the purchase price. The debt exchange offering closed on August 5, 2025 and resulted in the exchange of $1,680.1 million of long-term debt comprised of the following Array notes: $488.9 million of 6.7% Senior Notes, $394.2 million of 6.25% Senior Notes, $401.5 million of 5.5% March 2070 Senior Notes and $395.5 million of 5.5% June 2070 Senior Notes. As a result, on August 5, 2025, after the debt exchange, Array retained $363.9 million of senior notes, consisting of $55.1 million of 6.7% Senior Notes, $105.8 million of 6.25% Senior Notes, $98.5 million of 5.5% March 2070 Senior Notes, and $104.5 million of 5.5% June 2070 Senior Notes. The write-off of the unamortized discount and debt issuance costs related to the exchanged debt of $47.7 million was recorded to (Gain) loss on sale of business and other exit costs, net within discontinued operations during the three months ended September 30, 2025.
