(1) As of December 31, 2023, the Company had $1.9 billion of consolidated debt. The filing of the Chapter 11 Cases on January 7, 2024 constituted an event of default with respect to the Company's existing debt obligations other than its old accounts receivable facility, which accounted for $75.0 million of the Company's consolidated debt. As a result of the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, all of such debt of the Debtors (which excludes the accounts receivable facility) became immediately due and payable, but any efforts to enforce such payment obligations were automatically stayed as a result of the Chapter 11 Cases. These debt obligations and substantially all other prepetition obligations of the Debtors are subject to settlement under the Plan which was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court on February 20, 2024. Prior to the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company elected to utilize certain grace periods (described in detail below) for certain interest payments under its debt agreements and obtained extensions of certain grace periods and amendments to certain requirements under those agreements as further described below.
