Long-term Debt

 

On March 7, 2023, we completed a public debt offering of $350 million, 5.95% five year senior unsecured notes due March 15, 2028. The proceeds from the offering, which were net of $4.2 million of deferred financing costs, were used to repay notes outstanding under our CP Program and for other general corporate purposes.

 

Debt Covenants

 

Revolving Credit Facility

 

Under our Revolving Credit Facility, we are required to maintain a Consolidated Indebtedness to Capitalization Ratio not to exceed 0.65 to 1.00. Subject to applicable cure periods, a violation of any of these covenants would constitute an event of default that entitles the lenders to terminate their remaining commitments and accelerate all principal and interest outstanding.

 

We were in compliance with our covenants at March 31, 2023, as shown below:
