Convertible senior debentures
The principal amount of Teva’s 0.25% convertible senior debentures due 2026 was $23 million as of December 31, 2021 and $514 million as of December 31, 2020. These convertible senior debentures include a “net share settlement” feature according to which the principal amount will be paid in cash and in case of conversion, only the residual conversion value above the principal amount will be paid in Teva shares. Due to the “net share settlement” feature, exercisable at any time, these convertible senior debentures are classified in the Balance Sheet under short-term debt. Holders of the convertible senior debentures exercised their optional repurchase right and redeemed $491 million of the convertible senior debentures on February 1, 2021, which was the date to exercise this right.

Interest rate adjustments and a potential one-time premium payment related to the sustainability-linked bonds are treated as bifurcated embedded derivatives. See note 10c.
Long term debt was issued by several indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company and is fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company as to payment of all principal, interest, discount and additional amounts (as defined), if any. The long-term debt outlined in the above table is generally redeemable at any time at varying redemption prices plus accrued and unpaid interest.
Long term debt as of December 31, 2021 is effectively denominated in the following currencies: U.S. dollar 61%, euro 37% and Swiss franc 2%.
 
Teva’s principal sources of short-term liquidity are its cash on hand, existing cash investments, liquid securities and available credit facilities, primarily its $2.3 billion unsecured syndicated revolving credit facility entered into in April 2019, which will be reduced to $2.2 billion in April 2022 (“RCF”).
The RCF agreement provides for two separate tranches, a $1.15 billion tranche A and a $1.15 billion tranche B. Tranche A had a maturity date of April 8, 2022, of which an amount of $1.065 billion was extended twice, initially to April 8, 2023 and then to April 8, 2024. Tranche B has a maturity date of April 8, 2024. Loans and letters of credit will be available from time to time under each tranche for Teva’s general corporate purposes.
The RCF contains certain covenants, including certain limitations on incurring liens and indebtedness and maintenance of certain financial ratios, including the requirement to maintain compliance with a net debt to EBITDA ratio, which becomes more restrictive over time. The net debt to EBITDA ratio limit was 5.00x through the fourth quarter of 2021, gradually declines to 4.50x in the first and second quarters of 2022, 4.00x in the third and fourth quarters of 2022, and will decline to 3.50x in the first quarter of 2023.
The RCF can be used for general corporate purposes, including repaying existing debt. As of December 31, 2021 and as of the date of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, no amounts were outstanding under the RCF.
Under specified circumstances, including non-compliance with any of the covenants described above and the unavailability of any waiver, amendment or other modification thereto, the Company will not be able to borrow under the RCF. Additionally, violations of the covenants, under the above-mentioned circumstances, would result in an event of default in all borrowings under the RCF and, when greater than a specified threshold amount as set forth in each series of senior notes and sustainability-linked senior notes is outstanding, could lead to an event of default under the Company’s senior notes and sustainability-linked senior notes
,
due to cross acceleration provisions.
Based on current and forecasted results, the Company expects that it will not exceed the financial covenant thresholds set forth in the RCF within one year from the date these financial statements are issued. Due to the fact that Teva’s cash flow generation and EBITDA vary between quarters, there is a possibility that Teva will not be compliant with its financial covenants during a specific period and could temporarily be unable to draw upon the RCF. If this were to occur, Teva expects to continue to have sufficient cash resources to support its debt service payments and all other financial obligations within one year from the date that these financial statements are issued without drawing upon the RCF. Teva continually evaluates its expected compliance with the covenants described above, and intends, if needed, to proactively renegotiate and amend such covenants.
As of December 31, 2021, the required annual principal payments of long-term debt (excluding debt discount and issuance costs and fair value hedge adjustments), including convertible senior debentures, starting from the year 2023, are as follows:
