16.  SUBSEQUENT EVENTS   

The Company has evaluated all material events occurring subsequent to the balance sheet date for events requiring disclosure or recognition in the consolidated financial statements. On February 4, 2022, CHS completed a private offering of $1.535 billion aggregate principal amount of 5¼% Senior Secured Notes due May 15, 2030 (the “5¼% Senior Secured Notes due 2030”). The proceeds of the offering were used to redeem the 6⅝% Senior Secured Notes due 2025 on February 4, 2022, and to pay related fees and expenses. The 5¼% Senior Secured Notes due 2030 bear interest at a rate of 5.250% per year payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15, commencing on November 15, 2022. The 5¼% Senior Secured Notes due 2030 are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior-priority secured basis by each of CHS’ current and future domestic subsidiaries that provide guarantees under the ABL Facility, any capital market debt securities of CHS (including CHS’ outstanding senior notes) and certain other long-term debt of CHS.

 

The 5¼% Senior Secured Notes due 2030 and the related guarantees are secured by shared (i) first-priority liens on the Non-ABL Priority Collateral and (ii) second-priority liens on the ABL Priority Collateral that secures on a first-priority basis the ABL Facility, in each case subject to permitted liens described in the indenture governing the 5¼% Senior Secured Notes due 2030.

 

CHS is entitled, at its option, to redeem all or a portion of the 5¼% Senior Secured Notes due 2030 at any time prior to May 15, 2025, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 5¼% Senior Secured Notes due 2030 redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, plus a “make-whole” premium, as described in the indenture governing the 5¼% Senior Secured Notes due 2030.

 

CHS may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the % Senior Secured Notes due 2030 at any time prior to May 15, 2025 using the net proceeds from certain equity offerings at a redemption price of 105.250% of the principal amount of the 5¼% Senior Secured Notes due 2030 redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, any time prior to May 15, 2025, but not more than once during each twelve-month period, CHS may redeem up to 10% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 5¼% Senior Secured Notes due 2030 at a redemption price equal to 103% of the principal amount of the 5¼% Senior Secured Notes due 2030 to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

 

At any time and from time to time on or after May 15, 2025, CHS may redeem the % Senior Secured Notes due 2030 in whole or in part, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice at a redemption price equal to the percentage of principal
