(1) Consists of remaining William Lyon Notes and New Notes issued by TM Communities in connection with the Exchange Offer as described below. Unamortized Debt Issuance (Cost)/Premium for such notes is reflective of fair value adjustments as a result of purchase accounting estimates.

Senior Notes
All of our senior notes described below and the related guarantees are senior unsecured obligations and are not subject to registration rights. The indentures governing our senior notes (except for the William Lyon Notes) contain covenants that limit our ability to incur debt secured by liens and enter into certain sale and leaseback transactions and contain customary events of default. None of the indentures for the senior notes have financial maintenance covenants.
In connection with our acquisition of WLH, Taylor Morrison Communities, Inc. (“TM Communities”) offered to exchange (the “Exchange Offers”) any and all outstanding notes (the “William Lyon Notes”) of three series of senior notes issued by WLH for up to $1.1 billion aggregate principal amount of new notes (the “New Notes”) to be issued by TM Communities. The Exchange Offers were settled on February 10, 2020. All validly tendered and not validly withdrawn William Lyon Notes were accepted for exchange in the Exchange Offers and such William Lyon Notes were retired, canceled and not reissued. Following such cancellation, $26.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Senior Notes due 2023 of WLH, $8.5 million aggregate principal amount of 5.875% Senior Notes due 2025 of WLH and $9.6 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% Senior Notes due 2027 of WLH remain outstanding. In connection with the consummation of the Exchange Offers, WLH entered into supplemental indentures to eliminate substantially all of the covenants in the indentures governing the William Lyon Notes, including the requirement to offer to purchase such notes upon a change of control, and to eliminate certain other restrictive provisions and events that may lead to an “Event of Default” in such indentures. The New Notes were issued by TM Communities and consist of $324.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Senior Notes due 2023, $428 million aggregate principal amount of 5.875% Senior Notes due 2025 and $290 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% Senior Notes due 2027. The William Lyon Notes and the New Notes are discussed further below.

5.875% Senior Notes due 2023
On April 16, 2015, TM Communities issued $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.875% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “2023 5.875% Senior Notes”), which mature on April 15, 2023. The 2023 5.875% Senior Notes are guaranteed by Taylor Morrison Home III Corporation, Taylor Morrison Holdings, Inc. and their homebuilding subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”). We are required to offer to repurchase the 2023 5.875% Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of their aggregate principal amount (plus accrued and unpaid interest) upon certain change of control events where there is a credit rating downgrade that occurs in connection with the change of control.

Prior to January 15, 2023, the 2023 5.875% Senior Notes are redeemable at a price equal to 100% plus a “make-whole” premium for payments through January 15, 2023 (plus accrued and unpaid interest). Beginning January 15, 2023, the 2023 5.875% Senior Notes are redeemable at par (plus accrued and unpaid interest).

6.00% Senior Notes due 2023
On February 10, 2020, we completed the Exchange Offers as described above following which we had $324.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Senior Notes due 2023 issued by TM Communities (the “2023 6.00% TM Communities Notes”) and $26.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Senior Notes due 2023 issued by WLH (the “2023 6.00% WLH Notes” and together with the 2023 6.00% TM Communities Notes, the “2023 6.00% Senior Notes”). The 2023 6.00% TM Communities Notes are obligations of TM Communities and are guaranteed by the same Guarantors that guarantee our other outstanding Senior Notes. The change of control provisions in the indenture governing the 2023 6.00% TM Communities Notes are similar to those contained in the indentures governing our other Senior Notes. The carrying value of $366.2 million at March 31, 2020 reflects the acquisition fair value adjustment of the debt instrument of $16.2 million, net of amortization.

The 2023 6.00% Senior Notes mature on September 1, 2023. On or after September 1, 2020, we may redeem all or a portion of the 2023 6.00% Senior Notes at a price equal to 103% of principal (plus accrued and unpaid interest). On or after September 1, 2021, the 2023 6.00% Senior Notes are redeemable at a price equal to a 101.5% of principal (plus accrued and unpaid interest). On or after September 1, 2022, the 2023 6.00% Senior Notes are redeemable at a price equal to 100% of principal (plus accrued and unpaid interest). Prior to September 1, 2020, the 2023 6.00% Senior Notes are redeemable at a price equal to 100% plus a “make-whole” premium for payments through the date of redemption (plus accrued and unpaid interest).

5.625% Senior Notes due 2024
On March 5, 2014, TM Communities issued $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.625% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Senior Notes”), which mature on March 1, 2024. The 2024 Senior Notes are guaranteed by the same Guarantors that guarantee our other outstanding Senior Notes. The change of control provisions in the indenture governing the 2024 Senior Notes are similar to those contained in the indentures governing our other Senior Notes.

Prior to December 1, 2023, the 2024 Senior Notes are redeemable at a price equal to 100% plus a “make-whole” premium for payments through December 1, 2023 (plus accrued and unpaid interest). Beginning on December 1, 2023, the 2024 Senior Notes are redeemable at par (plus accrued and unpaid interest).

5.875% Senior Notes due 2025
On February 10, 2020, we completed the Exchange Offers as described above following which we had $428.4 million aggregate principal amount of 5.875% Senior Notes due 2025 issued by TM Communities (the “2025 5.875% TM Communities Notes”) and $8.5 million aggregate principal amount of 5.875% Senior Notes due 2025 issued by WLH (the “2025 5.875% WLH Notes” and together with the 2025 5.875% TM Communities Notes, the “2025 Senior Notes”). The 2025 5.875% TM Communities Notes are obligations of TM Communities and are guaranteed by the same Guarantors that guarantee our other outstanding Senior Notes. The change of control provisions in the indenture governing the 2025 5.875% TM Communities Notes are similar to those contained in the indentures governing our other Senior Notes. The 2025 Senior Notes reflect no acquisition fair value adjustment of the debt instrument, as it was redeemable at par.

The 2025 Senior Notes mature on January 31, 2025. On or after January 31, 2020, the 2025 Senior Notes are redeemable at a price equal to 102.938% of principal (plus accrued and unpaid interest). On or after January 31, 2021, the 2025 Senior Notes are redeemable at a price equal to 101.469% of principal (plus accrued and unpaid interest).

The 2027 5.875% Senior Notes are guaranteed by the same Guarantors that guarantee our other Senior Notes.

6.625% Senior Notes due 2027

On February 10, 2020, we completed the Exchange Offers as described above following which we had $290.4 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% Senior Notes due 2027 issued by TM Communities (the “2027 6.625% TM Communities Notes”) and $9.6 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% Senior Notes due 2027 issued by WLH (the “2027 6.625% WLH Notes” and together with the 2027 6.625% TM Communities Notes, the “2027 6.625% Senior Notes”). The 2027 6.625% TM Communities Notes are obligations of TM Communities and are guaranteed by the same Guarantors that guarantee our other outstanding Senior Notes. The change of control provisions in the indenture governing the 2027 6.625% TM Communities Notes are similar to those contained in the indentures governing our other Senior Notes. The carrying value of $323.3 million at March 31, 2020 reflects the acquisition fair value adjustment of the debt instrument of $23.3 million, net of amortization.

Prior to July 15, 2022, the 2027 6.625% Senior Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a “make-whole” premium, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date.

Repayment of William Lyon Homes 7.00% Senior Notes due 2022

In connection with the acquisition, on February 6, 2020, we satisfied and discharged all $50.0 million of WLH’s 7.00% Senior Notes due 2022 using cash on hand and borrowings from our $800.0 million Revolving Credit Facility, for a total redemption amount of $52.0 million.


Revolving Credit Facility
On February 6, 2020 we terminated our $600.0 million Revolving Credit Facility, writing off $1.7 million of debt issuance costs and entered into a new $800.0 million Revolving Credit Facility with a maturity date of February 6, 2024. As a precautionary measure during the COVID-19 pandemic, we made the decision in March 2020 to borrow $485.0 million on our Revolving Credit Facility.

The Revolving Credit Facility includes $2.0 million and $1.8 million of unamortized debt issuance costs as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, which are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we had $86.8 million and $77.7 million, respectively, of utilized letters of credit, resulting in $228.2 million and $522.3 million, respectively, of availability under the Revolving Credit Facility.
The Revolving Credit Facility contains certain “springing” financial covenants, requiring us and our subsidiaries to comply with a maximum debt to capitalization ratio of not more than 0.60 to 1.00 and a minimum consolidated tangible net worth level of at least $1.9 billion. The financial covenants would be in effect for any fiscal quarter during which any (a) loans under the
Revolving Credit Facility are outstanding during the last day of such fiscal quarter or on more than five separate days during such fiscal quarter or (b) undrawn letters of credit (except to the extent cash collateralized) issued under the Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate amount greater than $40.0 million or unreimbursed letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility are outstanding on the last day of such fiscal quarter or for more than five consecutive days during such fiscal quarter. For purposes of determining compliance with the financial covenants for any fiscal quarter, the Revolving Credit Facility provides that we may exercise an equity cure by issuing certain permitted securities for cash or otherwise recording cash contributions to our capital that will, upon the contribution of such cash to the borrower, be included in the calculation of consolidated tangible net worth and consolidated total capitalization. The equity cure right is exercisable up to twice in any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters and up to five times overall.

The Revolving Credit Facility contains certain restrictive covenants including limitations on incurrence of liens, dividends and other distributions, asset dispositions and investments in entities that are not guarantors, limitations on prepayment of subordinated indebtedness and limitations on fundamental changes. The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary events of default, subject to applicable grace periods, including for nonpayment of principal, interest or other amounts, violation of covenants (including financial covenants, subject to the exercise of an equity cure), incorrectness of representations and warranties in any material respect, cross default and cross acceleration, bankruptcy, material monetary judgments, ERISA events with material adverse effect, actual or asserted invalidity of material guarantees and change of control.

As of March 31, 2020, we were in compliance with all of the covenants under the Revolving Credit Facility.

(2) Warehouse D and Warehouse E are mortgage warehouse facilities assumed in connection with the acquisition of WLH. We expect to renew Warehouse D upon expiration. Warehouse E expired and was terminated as of April 15, 2020.

Loans Payable and Other Borrowings
Loans payable and other borrowings as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 consist of project-level debt due to various land sellers and seller financing notes from current and prior year acquisitions. The debt is obtained for specific communities that contains land banking, profit participation, and joint ventures. Project-level debt is generally secured by the land that was acquired and the principal payments generally coincide with corresponding project lot sales or a principal reduction schedule. The increase in our Loans payable and other borrowings balance as of March 31, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019, is primarily due to borrowings within our consolidated joint ventures acquired from WLH. Loans payable bear interest at rates that ranged from 0% to 8% at each of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. We impute interest for loans with no stated interest rates.
