(formerly known as Prudential Investment Management, Inc.) and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Prudential”). The Agreement provides for a $150,000,000 revolving facility, which includes $50,000,000 of outstanding existing unsecured senior notes that are due on March 1, 2021 (the "Existing Notes") and an additional $50,000,000 aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes issued on May 20, 2020 (the "2020 Notes"). The 2020 Notes are due on May 20, 2030 and bear interest at a fixed annual coupon rate of 4.95%. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the 2020 Notes for general corporate purposes and/or to refinance existing indebtedness, including the Existing Notes. The Agreement also establishes an uncommitted shelf facility (the “Facility”), under which Prudential will consider one or more requests from the Company to purchase up to an additional $50,000,000 in aggregate amount of the Company’s senior unsecured notes from time to time. The interest rate on any future notes issued under the Facility will be based on the benchmark Treasury rate corresponding to the weighted average life of the notes, plus a spread as determined by Prudential. The Facility will expire on May 20, 2023.
