Subsequent Events | 10. Subsequent Events ​ Issuance of $174.4 million new IPv4 notes On April 11, 2025 (the “Closing Date”), the IPv4 Issuer, completed the issuance of $174.4 million aggregate principal amount of 6.646% secured IPv4 address revenue notes, Series 2025-1 Class A-2 (collectively, the “New IPv4 Notes”), with an anticipated term ending in April 2030 (such anticipated repayment date, the “ARD”), in an offering exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The net proceeds, of the New IPv4 Notes, after offering expenses were $170.5 million. At the Closing Date $72.6 million of the $170.5 million net proceeds were restricted and $97.9 million of the net proceeds were unrestricted. The restricted net proceeds will become available based upon improvements in the monthly leverage ratio and debt service coverage ratio (both as defined in the Base Indenture) under the aggregate $380.4 million of IPv4 notes ($206.0 million issued in May 2024 and $174.4 million issued in April 2025). ​ The New IPv4 Notes were issued pursuant to the Base Indenture, as supplemented by the Series 2025-1 Supplement thereto, dated as of the Closing Date (the “Series 2025-1 Supplement”), by and between the IPv4 Issuer and the Trustee, and as acknowledged by the Guarantor. The Base Indenture allows the Issuer to issue additional series of notes subject to certain conditions set forth therein, and the Base Indenture, together with the Series 2024-1 Supplement thereto, dated as of May 2, 2024, and the Series 2025-1 Supplement, and any other series supplements to the Base Indenture, is referred to as the “Indenture.” ​ ​ While the New IPv4 Notes are outstanding, interest is paid on a monthly basis. From and after the ARD, principal payments will also be required to be made on the New IPv4 Notes on a monthly basis. No principal payments will be due on the New IPv4 Notes prior to the ARD, unless certain rapid amortization or acceleration triggers are activated. The legal final maturity date of the New IPv4 Notes is in April of 2055. If the IPv4 Issuer has not repaid or refinanced any New IPv4 Note prior to the monthly payment date in April of 2030, additional interest will accrue thereon in an amount equal to the greater of (i) 5.0% per annum and (ii) the excess amount, if any, by which the sum of the following exceeds the interest rate for such New IPv4 Note: (A) the yield to maturity (adjusted to a “mortgage-equivalent basis” pursuant to the standards and practices of the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association) on the ARD for such New IPv4 Note of the United States Treasury Security having a remaining term closest to 10 years; plus (B) 5.0%; plus (C) the post-ARD note spread of 3.00% applicable to such New IPv4 Note. Collateral and guarantee The New IPv4 Notes are obligations of the IPv4 Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, and are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the IPv4 Address Assets, pursuant to the Indenture. The New IPv4 Notes are guaranteed by the IPv4 Guarantor, pursuant to a guaranty, dated as of May 2, 2024 (the “Guaranty”) by the Guarantor in favor of the Trustee, pursuant to which the Guarantor has granted a security interest in the equity interests of the IPv4 Issuer as collateral security for its obligations under the Guaranty. Except as described below, neither the Company nor any subsidiary of the Company, other than the IPv4 Issuer and the Guarantor, will guarantee or in any way be liable for the obligations of the IPv4 Issuer under the Indenture or the New IPv4 Notes. Covenants and restrictions The New IPv4 Notes are subject to a series of covenants and restrictions customary for transactions of this type. These covenants and restrictions include (i) that the IPv4 Issuer maintains a liquidity reserve account to be used to make required payments in respect of the New IPv4 Notes, (ii) provisions relating to optional and mandatory prepayments, including specified make-whole payments in the case of certain optional prepayments of the New IPv4 Notes prior to the monthly payment date in May of 2028, (iii) certain indemnification payments in the event, among other things, that the transfers of the assets pledged as collateral for the New IPv4 Notes are in stated ways defective or ineffective and (iv) covenants relating to recordkeeping, access to information and similar matters. As provided in the Base Indenture, the New IPv4 Notes are also subject to rapid amortization in the event of a failure to maintain a stated debt service coverage ratio. A rapid amortization may be cured if the debt service coverage ratio exceeds a certain threshold for a certain period of time, upon which cure, regular amortization, if any, will resume. In addition, if certain utilization thresholds are not met (i.e., the proportion of IPv4 addresses that are leased to the total number of IPv4 addresses owned by the IPv4 Issuer falls below certain thresholds), the IPv4 Issuer will be required to apply collections to the repayment of the New IPv4 Notes and, in certain circumstances, the noteholders will have the ability to direct a sale of the IPv4 Address Assets, in whole or in part, pursuant to the terms set forth in the Indenture. The New IPv4 Notes are also subject to certain customary events of default, including events relating to non-payment of required interest, principal or other amounts due on or with respect to the New IPv4 Notes, failure to comply with covenants within certain time frames, certain bankruptcy events, breaches of specified representations and warranties, failure of security interests to be effective and certain judgments. Supplement to Base Indenture In connection with the issuance of the New IPv4 Notes, the IPv4 Issuer obtained consents from noteholders representing more than 50% of the Voting Rights (as defined in the Base Indenture) of the secured IPv4 address revenue term notes, Series 2024-1 Class A-2, to adopt amendments to the Base Indenture to, among other things, permit the IPv4 Issuer to (i) issue additional Class A Notes (as defined in the Base Indenture) (provided that the Class A Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Base Indenture) is less than or equal to 7.25 to 1.00) (as opposed to 6.10 to 1.00 under the Base Indenture as previously in effect), (ii) dispose of IPv4 addresses owned by the IPv4 Issuer (provided that the pro forma Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Base Indenture) is less than or equal to 7.25 to 1.00) (as opposed to the greater of (x) 7.10 to 1.00 and (y) the Leverage Ratio as of the date of the most recent issuance of Additional Notes (as defined in the Base Indenture) (after giving effect to the issuance of such Additional Notes) under the Base Indenture as previously in effect) and (iii) substitute new IPv4 addresses (including Non-Contributed IP Addresses (as defined in the Base Indenture)) to be owned by the IPv4 Issuer for the Contributed IP Addresses then owned by the IPv4 Issuer (provided that the pro forma Leverage Ratio is not greater than 7.25 to 1.00) (as opposed to 6.10 to 1.00 under the Base Indenture as previously in effect), in each case, among other applicable requirements (collectively, the “Amendments”). Accordingly, on the Closing Date, prior to the issuance of the New IPv4 Notes, the IPv4 Issuer entered into a second amendment to the Base Indenture (the “Second Amendment”) with the Trustee giving effect to the Amendments.
