2.75% SENIOR NOTES ISSUED MAY 2021 In May 2021, Rayonier, L.P. issued $450 million of 2.75% Senior Notes due 2031, guaranteed by certain subsidiaries. Semi-annual payments of interest only are due on these notes through maturity. The Senior Notes due 2031 were sold at an issue price of 99.195% of their face value, before underwriters discount. Our net proceeds after deducting approximately $3.9 million of underwriting discounts and expenses, were approximately $442.5 million. The discount and debt issuance costs are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes using the effective interest method. TERM CREDIT AGREEMENTS We have entered into several credit agreements with CoBank, ACB, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of Farm Credit institutions. Our various term credit facilities issued through the Farm Credit System provide for annual patronage payments, which are profit distributions made by the cooperative to its member-users based on the quantity or value of business done with the member-user. All of our term credit agreements are benchmarked to Daily Simple SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment. While all of our term credit facilities provide for variable interest rates based on a spread over Daily Simple SOFR, we have entered into multiple interest rate swap agreements to fix all of our variable rate exposure. For each credit facility described below, we provide our estimated effective interest rate after consideration of estimated patronage payments and interest rate swaps. 2015 TERM LOAN AGREEMENT In August 2015, we entered into a credit agreement with CoBank, ACB, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of Farm Credit institutions and other commercial banks to provide $550 million of credit facilities, including a nine-year $350 million term loan facility (“2015 Term Loan Facility”). During the second half of 2024, we repaid $150 million of the principal balance on this loan. In connection with the repayment, we recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $0.2 million, representing the write-off of a proportional amount of the unamortized deferred financing costs. The loss on early extinguishment of debt has been recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss) under the caption “Interest and other miscellaneous income, net.” The periodic interest rate on the 2015 Term Loan Facility is subject to a pricing grid based on our leverage ratio, as defined in the Term Credit Agreement. As of December 31, 2024, the periodic interest rate on the $200 million 2015 Term Loan Facility was Daily Simple SOFR plus 1.5% plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.1%. Monthly payments of interest only are due on this loan through maturity. We estimate the effective interest rate on this term loan facility to be approximately 2.0% after consideration of the interest rate swaps and estimated patronage refunds. For additional information on our interest rate swaps, see Note 8 — Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities. 2022 INCREMENTAL TERM LOAN AGREEMENT In December 2022, we entered into an Incremental Term Loan Agreement to provide a five-year $250 million senior unsecured incremental term loan facility (“2022 Incremental Term Loan Facility”). During the fourth quarter of 2023, we repaid $150 million of the principal balance on this loan. In December 2024, the remaining $100 million principal balance was repaid. We recognized a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $0.2 million, representing the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs. The loss on early extinguishment of debt has been recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income (Loss) under the caption “Interest and other miscellaneous income, net.” 2016 INCREMENTAL TERM LOAN AGREEMENT In April 2016, we entered into an Incremental Term Loan Agreement to provide a 10-year, $300 million term loan facility (“2016 Incremental Term Loan Facility”) of which $100 million was subsequently repaid. The periodic interest rate on the 2016 Incremental Term Loan Facility is subject to a pricing grid based on our leverage ratio, as defined in the Incremental Term Loan Agreement. As of December 31, 2024, the periodic interest rate on the $200 million 2016 Incremental Term Loan Facility was Daily Simple SOFR plus 1.65% plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.1%. Monthly payments of interest only are due on this loan through maturity. We estimate the effective interest rate on this term loan facility to be approximately 2.4% after consideration of interest rate swaps and estimated patronage payments. For additional information on our interest rate swaps, see Note 8 — Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities. 2021 INCREMENTAL TERM LOAN AGREEMENT In June 2021, we entered into an Incremental Term Loan Agreement, which provided us the ability to make an advance of $200 million on or before June 1, 2022. In January 2022, we made a $200 million draw on our 2021 Incremental Term Loan Facility. The periodic interest rate on the 2021 Incremental Term Loan Facility is subject to a pricing grid based on our leverage ratio, as defined in the Incremental Term Loan Agreement. As of December 31, 2024, the periodic interest rate on the 2021 Incremental Term Loan Facility was Daily Simple SOFR plus 1.55% plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.1%. Monthly payments of interest only are due on this loan through maturity. We estimate the effective interest rate on this term loan facility to be approximately 1.4% after consideration of interest rate swaps and estimated patronage refunds. For additional information on our interest rate swaps, see Note 8 — Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities. REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY The periodic interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facility is subject to a pricing grid based on our leverage ratio, as defined in the Term Credit Agreement. As of December 31, 2024, the periodic interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facility was Daily Simple SOFR plus 1.25% plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.1%, with an unused commitment fee of 0.175%. Monthly payments of interest only are due on this loan through maturity. See Note 23 — Other Assets for additional information about deferred financing costs related to revolving debt. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we made no borrowings or repayments on our Revolving Credit Facility. At December 31, 2024, we had available borrowings of $293.0 million, net of $7.0 million to secure our outstanding letters of credit. NEW ZEALAND SUBSIDIARY DEBT WORKING CAPITAL FACILITY In July 2024, the New Zealand subsidiary renewed its NZ$20 million working capital facility, extending its maturity date to June 30, 2025. The facility is available for short-term operating cash flow needs of the New Zealand subsidiary. This facility holds a variable interest rate indexed to the 90-day New Zealand Bank Bill rate (“BKBM”). The margins are set for the term of the facility. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the New Zealand subsidiary made no borrowings or repayments on its working capital facility. At December 31, 2024, there was no outstanding balance on the facility. SHAREHOLDER LOANS The New Zealand subsidiary has made capital distributions in the past to its partners on a pro rata basis to redeem certain equity interests, which were reinvested by the partners into shareholder loans to the New Zealand subsidiary. Our capital distribution and portion of the shareholder loan are eliminated in consolidation. The capital distribution to the minority shareholder and its reinvestment in the shareholder loan results in the recording of a loan payable by the New Zealand subsidiary. Except for changes in the New Zealand foreign exchange rate, there have been no adjustments to the carrying value of the shareholder loans since its inception. See Note 5 — Noncontrolling Interests for more information regarding the New Zealand subsidiary. SHAREHOLDER LOAN DUE 2025 In September 2020, the New Zealand subsidiary recorded a loan payable in the amount of $23.3 million due in 2025 at a fixed interest rate of 2.95%. As of December 31, 2024, the outstanding balance is $19.4 million. SHAREHOLDER LOAN DUE 2026 In July 2021, the New Zealand subsidiary recorded a loan payable in the amount of $28.1 million due in 2026 at a fixed interest rate of 3.64%. As of December 31, 2024, the outstanding balance is $22.7 million. SHAREHOLDER LOAN DUE 2027 In April 2022, the New Zealand subsidiary recorded a loan payable in the amount of $27.9 million due in 2027 at a fixed interest rate of 6.48%. As of December 31, 2024, the outstanding balance is $22.7 million. DEBT COVENANTS In connection with our 2015 Term Loan Agreement, 2016 Incremental Term Loan Agreement, 2021 Incremental Term Loan Agreement and Revolving Credit Facility, customary covenants must be met, the most significant of which include interest coverage and leverage ratios. The covenants listed below, which are the most significant financial covenants in effect as of December 31, 2024, are calculated on a trailing 12-month basis:
| Covenant Requirement |  | Actual Ratio |  | Favorable
Covenant EBITDA to consolidated interest expense should not be less than | 2.5 to 1 |  | 8.3 to 1 |  | 5.8

In addition to the financial covenants listed above, the Senior Notes due 2031, 2015 Term Loan Agreement, 2016 Incremental Term Loan Agreement, 2021 Incremental Term Loan Agreement, and Revolving Credit Facility include customary covenants that limit the incurrence of debt and the disposition of assets, among others. At December 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants.
