At any time and from time to time prior to the Stated Maturity of the Notes, the Issuer may redeem, at its option, all or part of the Notes upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior notice (with a copy to the Trustee) at a redemption price equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus (ii) the Applicable Premium as of the date of redemption, plus (iii) accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).
|
|
“Applicable Premium” means with respect to any note on any date of redemption, as determined by the Issuer, the excess, if any, of (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the note (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the date of redemption), discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate as of such date of redemption plus 50 basis points; over (b) the principal amount of the note.
|
|
|
“Treasury Rate” means, as of any redemption date, the yield to maturity as of such redemption date of United States Treasury securities with a constant maturity (as compiled and published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) that has become publicly available at least two business days prior to the redemption date (or, if such Statistical Release is no longer published, any publicly available source of similar market data)) most nearly equal to the period from the redemption date to the Stated Maturity of the Notes; provided, however, that if the period from the redemption date to the Stated Maturity of such Notes is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year will be used.
