Loan notes and Private Shelf Facility

 

The $25.0 million Loan Notes and the Private Shelf Facility are governed by the Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement. This agreement requires us to maintain compliance with a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum leverage ratio. We were in compliance with the applicable covenants at all quarterly measurement dates from September 30, 2014 through  September 27, 2026.

 

The $25.0 million Loan Notes matured on June 29, 2026 and were repaid using drawings under the Company’s separate Revolving Credit Facility. The Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New York.

 

Revolving Credit Facility

 

The Revolving Credit Facility is governed by a separate Multicurrency Revolving Facility Agreement. In July 2025, the Company refinanced the Revolving Credit Facility, maintaining committed capacity of $125.0 million and an additional $25.0 million of uncommitted capacity under an accordion feature, and extending its maturity from October 2026 to July 2030.

 

During the first nine months of 2026, we drew down net $43.8 million on the Revolving Credit Facility and the balance outstanding at  September 27, 2026, was $58.7 million, and at  December 31, 2025, was $15.3 million, with $66.3 million undrawn at  September 27, 2026 and $109.7 million undrawn at  December 31, 2025.
