Bank Borrowings and Long-Term Liabilities | Bank Borrowings and Long-Term Liabilities SJW Group’s contractual obligations and commitments include senior notes, bank term loans, revenue bonds, state revolving fund loans and other obligations.

The SJWC Credit Agreement provides an unsecured credit facility with a letter of credit sublimit of $15,000. Proceeds of borrowings under the SJWC Credit Agreement may be used to refinance existing debt, for working capital, and for general corporate purposes. The new SJWC Credit Agreement has a maturity date of December 31, 2023. The line of credit bears interest at variable rates. The SJWC Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and events of default, as well as restrictive covenants customary for facilities of this type. The SJWC Credit Agreement also includes certain customary financial covenants such as a funded debt to capitalization ratio. Also on April 23, 2021, SJW Group, as guarantor, and CLWSC closed its $5,000 line of credit agreement which was set to mature on June 1, 2021, and entered into a new $5,000 credit agreement (“SJWTX Credit Agreement”) with the Lender.

The notes are unsecured obligations of Maine Water. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears on the 20th day of January, April, July and October of each year. The promissory note contains customary representations and warranties. Under the promissory note, Maine Water is required to comply with certain customary affirmative and negative covenants for as long as the notes are outstanding. The notes are also subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of which may result in all of the notes then outstanding becoming immediately due and payable. Proceeds from the borrowing were received on March 18, 2021.

The borrowing carries a fixed interest rate of 4.01% due on March 20, 2041. The remaining aggregate principal amount of the promissory note is to be advanced at the discretion of CLWSC before the maturity date. The notes are unsecured obligations of CLWSC. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears on the 20th day of January, April, July and October of each year. The promissory note contains customary representations and warranties. Under the promissory note, CLWSC is required to comply with certain customary affirmative and negative covenants for as long as the notes are outstanding. The notes are also subject to customary events of default, the occurrence of which may result in all of the notes then outstanding becoming immediately due and payable. On June 25, 2021, SJWC entered into a note purchase agreement with certain affiliates of New York Life Insurance (collectively the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the company sold an aggregate principal amount of $50,000 of its 3.00% Senior Notes, Series N (“Series N Notes”) to the Purchasers.
