​ In 2018, Seaboard Foods LLC entered into an Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with CoBank, ACB, Farm Credit Services of America, PCA, and the lenders party thereto for a $700 million unsecured term loan (“Term Loan”). The Term Loan provides for quarterly payments of the principal balance to the revised amortization schedule set forth in the Credit Agreement, with the balance due on the maturity date of September 25, 2028. The Term Loan bears interest at fluctuating rates based on various margins over a Base Rate, LIBOR or a Quoted Rate, at the option of the borrower. The interest rate was 6.01% and 1.73% as of December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants for credit facilities of this type, including restrictions on the incurrence of indebtedness over a certain threshold, ability to make certain acquisitions, investments and asset dispositions and aggregate dividend payments. In conjunction with the purchase of certain equipment during 2021, $9 million of secured, other long-term debt was assumed. The loan agreement incurs a fixed interest rate of 5.60% and matures in August 2037. In December 2020, Seaboard received a $30 million note that incurs a fixed interest rate of 1.28% and matures in 2027. Seaboard was in compliance with all restrictive debt covenants relating to these agreements as of December 31, 2022.
