The Facilities were jointly syndicated with the lending group reduced from nine to eight banks (removal of two banks and addition of a new bank). JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC acted as Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Book Runners on the transactions, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Administrative Agent. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:16px;text-align:left;text-indent:24px;font-size:12pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;">The $150 million HEI Facility extended the term of the facility to June 30, 2022. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:16px;text-align:left;text-indent:24px;font-size:12pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;">The $200 million Hawaiian Electric Facility has an initial term that expires on June 29, 2018, but its term will extend to June 30, 2022, if, and when approved by the Public Utilities Commission of the State of Hawaii (PUC) during the initial term.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:16px;text-align:left;text-indent:24px;font-size:12pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;">Under the Facilities, draws would generally bear interest, based on each company&#8217;s respective current long-term credit ratings, at the &#8220;Adjusted LIBO Rate,&#8221; as defined in the agreement, plus 137.5 basis points and annual fees on undrawn commitments, excluding swingline borrowings, of 20 basis points. The Facilities contain provisions for pricing adjustments in the event of a long-term ratings change based on the respective Facilities&#8217; ratings-based pricing grid, which includes the ratings by Fitch Ratings, Inc., Moody&#8217;s Investors Service, Inc. and S&amp;P Global Ratings. Certain modifications were made to incorporate some updated terms and conditions customary for facilities of this type. The Facilities do not contain clauses that would affect access to the facilities by reason of a ratings downgrade, nor do they have broad &#8220;material adverse change&#8221; clauses, but they continue to contain customary conditions that must be met in order to draw on them, including compliance with covenants.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:10px;text-align:left;text-indent:24px;font-size:12pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;">The Facilities may be drawn on to meet each company&#8217;s respective working capital needs and general corporate purposes, but has primarily been used to support each company&#8217;s respective short-term commercial paper program. As of March 31, 2017, HEI had $0.8 million and Hawaiian Electric had $1.5&#160;million of commercial paper outstanding.
