Note 8 — Debt

On February 1, 2019, UGI Utilities issued in a private placement $150,000 of 4.55% Senior Notes due February 1, 2049. The 4.55% Senior Notes were issued pursuant to a Note Purchase Agreement dated December 21, 2018, between UGI Utilities and certain note purchasers. The 4.55% Senior Notes are unsecured and rank equally with UGI Utilities’ existing outstanding senior debt. The net proceeds from the sale of the 4.55% Senior Notes were used to reduce short-term borrowings and for general corporate purposes. The 4.55% Senior Notes include the usual and customary covenants for similar type notes including, among others, maintenance of existence, payment of taxes when due, compliance with laws and maintenance of insurance. The 4.55% Senior Notes require UGI Utilities not to exceed a ratio of Consolidated Debt to Consolidated Total Capital, as defined, of 0.65 to 1.00.
