Scheduled Termination Date financial
"extend the Scheduled Termination Date"
Collateral Coverage Ratio financial
"minimum Collateral Coverage Ratio"
Collateral coverage ratio measures how much value of pledged assets (collateral) exists relative to the outstanding debt they secure, usually expressed as a multiple or percentage (collateral value ÷ loan amount). It matters to investors because it signals how protected a lender or creditor is if a borrower defaults — like seeing whether the house fully covers a mortgage — and influences credit risk, loan terms, margin calls and recovery prospects.
minimum liquidity thresholds financial
"the minimum liquidity thresholds"
events of default financial
"certain anticipated or existing events of default under the Credit Agreement"
Events of default are specific breaches or failures listed in a loan, bond, or credit agreement that give lenders the right to act, such as demanding immediate repayment, raising interest rates, or taking secured assets. They matter to investors because triggering one is like setting off a financial alarm: it raises the chance of foreclosure, restructuring, or bankruptcy and can sharply reduce the value of a company’s stock or bonds and increase borrowing costs.
