Senior notes are a type of loan that a company borrows from investors, promising to pay it back with interest. They are called "senior" because in case the company faces financial trouble, these lenders are paid back before others. This makes senior notes safer for investors compared to other types of loans or bonds.
indentureregulatory
An indenture is a legal agreement between a company that borrows money by issuing bonds and the people who buy those bonds. It explains the rules the company must follow, like paying back the money and keeping certain financial promises. This document helps both sides understand their rights and responsibilities.
make-whole amountfinancial
A make-whole amount is the cash payment a borrower must give investors when it pays off a bond or loan early, designed to compensate them for lost future interest. Think of it like an early-termination fee that equals the current value of the remaining scheduled payments (often calculated using a set interest rate) so investors are put “made whole”; it matters because it changes how costly early refinancing is and affects bond values and investor returns.
accrued and unpaid interestfinancial
Accrued and unpaid interest is the interest that has built up on a loan or debt but hasn't been paid yet. It's like owing your friend money for a favor over time—you're expected to pay it later, even though you haven't paid it yet. This matters because it shows how much you owe beyond the original amount borrowed.
