In compliance of Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933 the Notes were issued to qualified institutional buyers and non-U.S. persons.
Standard and Poor has assigned a rating of A(sf) to Company’s Class A Notes while that assigned to Class B Notes is BBB(sf). The Notes issued bear fixed coupon and have an approximately five years of weighted average life. TMCL VII has issued the Notes against its assets as security. The company will utilize the proceeds from recent financing to pay down debt including its secured debt facility, revolving credit facility and to fully pay back the Notes issued in its 2017-2 and 2018-1 financings.
Lower market rates in the current environment will help us reduce borrowing costs through issuance of these Notes. This will also help us build additional capacity to make further container investments in future. After the current financing, company’s collective effective interest rate reduced to nearly 3.10%, Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President, Michael K. Chan said.
