Interest Deferral
|
The Issuer may on one or more occasions, defer the semi-annual interest payments on the Remarketed Notes at any time or from time to time. Any deferral period must end on an interest payment date and a deferral of interest payments cannot extend beyond the maturity date of the Remarketed Notes. At the end of a deferral period, the Issuer must pay all interest then accrued and unpaid, together with any interest on the accrued and unpaid interest, to the extent permitted by applicable law. Upon the termination of any deferral period, or any extension of the related deferral period, and the payment of all amounts then due, the Issuer may begin a new deferral period, subject to certain limitations. | |
The Issuer will provide to the indenture trustee and the paying agent for the Remarketed Notes notice of its election to begin or extend a deferral period at least 10 business days prior to the date interest on the Remarketed Notes would have been payable except for the election to begin or extend the deferral period. | ||
During any such deferral period, the Issuer will be restricted, subject to certain exceptions, from making certain payments, including declaring or paying any dividends or making any distributions on, or redeeming, purchasing, acquiring or making a liquidation payment with respect to, shares of our capital stock. | ||
