In March 2020, we borrowed $350 million under our revolving credit facility dated as of June 27, 2019 (the Credit Facility) with American AgCredit, PCA, as administrative agent and CoBank, ACB, as a letter of credit issuer, as a precautionary measure, to ensure funds were available to meet our obligations for a substantial period of time in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. On May 1, 2020, we entered into an amendment to our the Credit Facility to provide a total capacity of $550 million and on May 27, 2020, we entered into a second amendment to the Credit Facility (as amended, the Amended Credit Facility), which modified certain representations and warranties included in the Credit Facility related to the impacts of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, operations or financial conditions as more particularly set forth in the second amendment.

The Amended Credit Facility provides for revolving credit facilities in the aggregate principal amount of up to $550 million, with a $60 million sub-limit for letters of credit. The initial $350 million revolving facility provided pursuant to the Credit Facility (Revolving A Loan) terminates, and all loans made thereunder become due, on June 27, 2024. The incremental $200 million revolving facility provided pursuant to the Amended Credit Facility in May 2020 (Revolving B Loan) terminates, and all loans made thereunder become due, on May 1, 2023. Certain of LP’s existing and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries may guaranty our obligations under the Amended Credit Facility and, subject to certain limited exceptions, provide security through a lien on substantially all the personal property of these subsidiaries. We repaid the $350 million in June 2020 and there were no outstanding amounts borrowed under the Amended Credit Facility as of September 30, 2020.

Revolving borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility accrue interest, at our option, at either a “base rate” plus a margin of 0.875% to 2.000% for Revolving A Loans and 1.125% to 2.250% for Revolving B Loans or LIBOR plus a margin of 1.875% to 3.000% for Revolving A Loans and 2.125% to 3.250% for Revolving B Loans. The Amended Credit Facility also includes an unused commitment fee, due quarterly, ranging from 0.3% to 0.6% for both Revolving A Loans and Revolving B Loans. The applicable margins and fees within these ranges are based on our ratio of

consolidated EBITDA to cash interest charges. The “base rate” is the highest of (i) the Federal funds rate plus 0.5%, (ii) the U.S. prime rate, and (iii) one-month LIBOR plus 1.0%.

The Amended Credit Facility contains various restrictive covenants and customary events of default, the occurrence of which could result in the acceleration of our obligation to repay the indebtedness outstanding thereunder. The Amended Credit Facility also contains financial covenants that require us and our consolidated subsidiaries to have, as of the end of each quarter, (i) a capitalization ratio (i.e., funded debt less unrestricted cash to total capitalization) of no more than 57.5% and (ii) a minimum consolidated net worth of at least $475 million plus 70% of consolidated net income after December 31, 2019, without a deduction for net losses.

In September 2016, we issued $350 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Senior Notes, which mature on September 15, 2024. We may, at our option on one or more occasions, redeem all or any portion of these notes at the redemption prices set forth in the indenture governing the 2024 Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of redemption. The indenture governing the 2024 Senior Notes contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to grant liens to secure indebtedness, engage in sale and leaseback transactions and merge or consolidate or sell all or substantially all our assets. If we are subject to a "change of control," as defined in the indenture, we are required to offer to repurchase the 2024 Senior Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but not including, the date of purchase. The indenture governing the 2024 Senior Notes contains customary events of default, including failure to make required payments on the 2024 Senior Notes, failure to comply with certain agreements or covenants contained in the indenture, failure to pay or acceleration of certain other indebtedness and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. An event of default in the indenture allows either the indenture trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding 2024 Senior Notes to accelerate, or in certain cases, automatically causes the acceleration of, the amounts due under the 2024 Senior Notes.

In March 2020, LP entered into a letter of credit facility agreement (Letter of Credit Facility) with Bank of America, N.A., which provides for the funding of letters of credit up to an aggregate outstanding amount of $20 million, which may be secured by certain cash collateral of LP. The Letter of Credit Facility includes an unused commitment fee, due quarterly, ranging from 0.50% to 1.875% of the daily available amount to be drawn on each letter of credit issued under the Letter of Credit Facility. The Letter of Credit Facility is subject to similar affirmative, negative, and financial covenants as those set forth in the Amended Credit Facility, including capitalization ratio and minimum net worth covenants.

As of September 30, 2020, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the Amended Credit Facility.
