4.Additional Issuances

 

4.1Extending the series of Bonds (Series A)

The Company will refer to the Stock Exchange with a request to list for trade the additional Bonds (Series A) as stated, when they are offered.

Notwithstanding the above, an additional issuance of Bonds (Series A) will be performed subject to receipt of confirmation of the Stock Exchange and subject to all of the terms set forth below being fulfilled: (a) the Rating of the Bonds (Series A), as the Rating may be at the time will not be harmed by the additional issuance of the Bonds (Series A) as stated (i.e. the Rating before the expansion of the series will not change immediately after its expansion following the aforesaid expansion). For the purpose of this section, it is clarified that in the event in which the Bonds (Series A) are rated by more than one Rating Company, the ratings test for the purpose of this section will take place, at any time, based on the higher of the ratings; (b) on the date of the additional issue, in accordance with the most recent financial statements published before the date of the additional issue, and after retroactively taking into account the performance of the additional issue, the Company will meet all the financial obligations set forth in Section 6.4 below (without taking into account the cure and waiting periods enumerated in connection with the same financial obligations); (c) on the date of the additional issue there are no grounds for calling for the immediate payment of the bonds as set forth in Section ‎8.1.

 

The Company will provide the Trustee, before the additional issuance is actually carried out and subject to it (and in the event a tender is held for classified investors, no later than the date on which the tender for classified investors takes place) with a written confirmation that is signed by the CEO or a senior officer in the financial department of the Company regarding (in this subsection: “Confirmation”): (1) the fulfillment of the aforesaid conditions on the date of the Confirmation (excluding the condition in subsection (a) above, for which the Company shall provide the consent of the Rating Company as described below); (2) that on the date of the Confirmation the Company is not in breach of any of its material obligations to the Bondholders (Series A).

 

It is clarified that the exchange for the expansion of the Bonds (Series A) will be transferred directly to the Company with the condition that the Company provided the Trustee with the aforementioned approvals. In any case of an additional issue as stated, the increase of the series in practice will occur subject to receipt of prior consent from the Rating Company whereby the rating before the expansion of the series will not change downwards immediately after its expansion following the aforesaid expansion. Confirmation from the Rating Company will be published in an immediate report before the actual expansion of the series.

 

This right of the Company will not exempt the Trustee from examining the additional issue as stated, if such an obligation applies to the Trustee under law, and will not derogate from the rights of the Trustee and the Bondholders under this Deed, including their right to call for immediate repayment of the Bonds as stated in Section ‎8 below.

 

Subject to the provisions of the Deed of Trust, the Trustee shall act as trustee for the Bonds (Series A) as they will be in circulation from time to time, and this also in the event of a series expansion, and the consent of the Trustee for such service for the expanded series will not be required. The Bonds (Series A) that will be in circulation before the expansion of the Series A and the additional Bonds (Series A) which will be issued (if at all) as described in this section above, shall constitute (from the date of their issue) one series for all purposes, and the Deed of Trust shall also apply to all of the abovementioned additional Bonds (Series A) that the Company will issue. The additional Bonds (Series A) shall not grant the right for the payment of principal and/or interest with regard to Bonds (Series A) for which the effective date for their payment was prior to the date of their issue. In the case of such expansion of the series, the applicable tax consequences including with regard to calculation of the rate of deduction, if required, as set forth in Section 2.23 of Chapter 2B of the Prospectus and in accordance with the provisions of any law as in effect on the date the additional bonds are issued.

4.2Without derogating from the generality of the above, the Company reserves the right, subject to any law, to issue an additional series of bonds at any time and from time to time (whether in a private placement or in the framework of a prospectus and/or by an amendment to a prospectus whether by a shelf offering or by any other means) and without being required to receive the consent of the Bondholders (Series A) and/or the consent of the Trustee, as applicable, and including an Affiliated Party (as defined in Section ‎3.2 above), and/or other securities as the Company sees fit and this without harming the Company’s repayment obligation under this Deed of Trust. In addition, if the Company issued an additional series of bonds and this bond series is not secured (and so long that it is not secured), the rights of the series in liquidation will not be preferred over those of the Bonds (Series A) (in this Section 4.2 alone: the “Additional Issuance”). In the event that the Company issues other bonds (of a different series) that are secured by collateral and / or liens (of any kind), then the other bonds will be prioritized in liquidation over the bonds (Series A) only with respect to those collateral and / Or liens included in such other bonds. For the avoidance of doubt it shall be clarified that the provisions of this section do not prevent the Company from issuing additional bonds of any kind which would be secured by collateral and / or liens of any kind at the Company’s sole discretion. Without derogating from the above, the aforesaid rights of the Company, will not prevent the Trustee from examining the implications of the additional issue as stated, and will not derogate from the rights of the Trustee and the Bondholders under this Deed, including their right to call for immediate repayment of the Bonds as stated in Section ‎8 below.

 

Subject to the provisions of any law, the Company shall notify the Trustee about the Additional Issuance before it is carried out.

Additionally, the Company undertakes to list the Bonds for trade in the Stock Exchange and to reasonably act that the Bonds continue to be listed for trade in the Stock Exchange until the date of final payment.

 

5.2Adjustment of the interest rate due to a change in the rating of the Bonds (Series A):

 

For the purpose of this section, it shall be clarified that in the event in which the Bonds (Series A) are rated by more than one rating company, an examination of the rating for the adjustment of the interest rate to the change in the rating (if any such change occurs) will take place based on the lower of the ratings.

Base Rating” – a rating of ilA+ or equivalent.

 

Additional Interest Rate” – additional interest provided to the bondholders at a rate of 0.25% per year for a decrease of each notch in the rating of Bonds below the Base Rating until a maximum interest addition of 1.5% per year at most (the “Limitation on the Additional Interest Rate”).

 

A.If the rating of the Bonds (Series A) by the rating company (in the case of replacing a rating company, the Company shall transfer to the Trustee a comparison of the scale rating of the outgoing rating agency and the scale rating of the incoming rating agency) are updated during the any interest period, so that the rating to be determined to the Bonds (Series A) is lower by one notch or more (the “Reduced Rating”) below the Base Rating, the annual interest rate on the outstanding principal of the Bonds (Series A) will increase by the additional interest rate according to the steps set forth, and this is for the period that commences on the date of publication of the Reduced Rating by the rating agency until the earlier of (a) repayment in full of the principal amount balance of the Bonds (Series A) or (b) the date of the rating increase pursuant to Section 5.2 (d) below. If the interest rate was raised earlier in respect of deviations from financial covenants as stated in paragraph 5.3 below, then the rise in the interest rate due to a decline in rating as aforesaid will be limited according to the limit of the maximum interest rate increase.

 

B.No later than the end of two trading days from the receipt of a notice from the rating company regarding the lowering of the rating of the Bonds (Series A) to the Lowered Rating as defined above, the Company will publish an immediate report, in which the Company states: (1) that the rating was lowered, the Lowered Rating, the rating report and the date on which the Lowered Rating of the Bonds (Series A) comes into effect (the “Date of Lowering the Rating”); (2) deviation / non-deviation from the financial covenants described in Section ‎5.3 below based on the most recent financial statements of the Company published before the date of the immediate report, as well as whether a change has occurred to the interest for the deviation / non-deviation from the financial covenants as stated; (3) the precise interest rate that the principal amount balance will bear for the period beginning on the current interest period and until the Date of Lowering the Rating (the interest rate will be calculated based on 365 days per year) (the “Original Interest” and the “Original Interest Period,” respectively); (4) the interest rate that the principal amount balance will bear as of the Date of Lowering the Rating and until the actual next interest payment date, i.e.: the Original Interest in addition to the additional interest rate per year (the interest rate is calculated based on 365 days per year) (the “Updated Interest”), and this subject to the limitation on the maximum interest increase and the Limitation on the Additional Interest Rate (5) the weighted interest rate paid by the Company to the holders of Bonds (Series A) on the upcoming interest payment date, arising from the provisions of subsections (3) and (4) above; (6) the annual interest rate reflected from the weighted interest rate; (7) the annual interest rate and the semiannual interest rate (the semiannual interest rate will be calculated as the annual interest divided by the number of interest payments per year, namely by two) for the following periods.

 

C.If the date of the commencement of the rating of the Bonds (Series A) with the Lowered Rating occurs during the days beginning four days before the date set forth for payment of any interest and ending on the interest payment date that is closest to the date set forth above (the “Deferral Period”), the Company will pay to the holders of the Bonds (Series A), on the upcoming interest payment date, the Original Interest, before the change, alone, while if the interest rate is not increased prior thereto due to a deviation from the financial covenants as stated in Section 5.3 below, the interest rate arising from the additional interest in the rate equal to the rate of the additional annual interest during the Deferral Period (calculated based on 365 per year),will be paid on the following interest payment date and all subject to the maximum interest increase and the Limitation on the Additional Interest Rate. The Company will announce, in an immediate report, the precise interest rate for payment on the upcoming interest payment date.

 

 
17

 

D.In the event of updating the rating of the Bonds (Series A) by the rating company, in a manner impacting the interest rate that the Bonds (Series A) will bear as stated in Section ‎5.2(a) above or ‎5.2(d) below, the Company will inform the trustee thereof in writing within one business day from the publication of the immediate report as stated.

 

E.In the event that after the reduction of the rating in a manner that will impact the interest rate that the Bonds (Series A) will bear as stated in Section ‎5.2(a) above, the rating company will update the rating for the Bonds (Series A) upwards, the annual interest that the principal amount will bear on the relevant date of payment of the interest will decrease at the additional interest rate or part thereof, in accordance with the abovementioned established levels, for the period in which the Bonds (Series A) were rated with the High Rating alone (meaning, as of the publication date of the rating report regarding the increase of the rating), such that the interest rate that the unpaid balance of the principal of the Bonds (Series A) will bear after the update of the rating upwards to a rating equal or higher to the Base Rating will be the interest rate determined in the tender, as published by the Company in an immediate report regarding the results of the issuance, without any addition for the reduction of the rating as stated in this Section 5.2 (and in any event, the interest rate that the Bonds will bear will not be less that the interest rate determined in the tender). In such a case, the Company will act in accordance with the provisions of subsections (a) through (c) above, mutatis mutandis, arising from the High Rating instead of the Lowered Rating.

 

F.If the Bonds (Series A) cease to be rated at all for a reason dependent on the Company (for example, but not only, due to non-fulfillment of the Company’s obligations vis-à-vis the rating company, including due to failure to provide payments and/or reports that the Company has undertaken to provide towards the rating company) for a period exceeding 21 trading days, before the final payment, the cessation of the rating will be considered as the maximum Lowered Rating , such that the additional interest rate will amount to 1.5% (even if the interest rate increased in accordance with subsection (A) above prior to such date), even if the interest rate was increased prior thereto due to a deviation from the financial covenants as stated in Section ‎5.3 below (but subject to the limitation on the maximum interest increase), and the provisions of subsection (b) through (d) above will apply accordingly, without derogating from the provisions of Section 8.1.21 below. For the avoidance of doubt, it shall be clarified that if the Bonds (Series A) cease to be rated, before the final payment, for a reason independent of the Company, the above will not impact the interest rate as stated in Subsection (a) above and the provisions of this Section 5.2 (e) will not apply.

 

G.In the case in which the rating company is replaced or the Bonds (Series A) cease to be rated by the rating company (even if the Bonds (Series A) are rated by several rating companies), the Company will publish an immediate report, within one trading day from the date of the change, in which the Company will announce the circumstances of the replacement of the rating company or the cessation of the rating, as applicable.

 

H.For the avoidance of doubt, it is clarified that: (1) a change in the outlook for the rating of the Bonds (Series A) will not lead to a change in the interest rate that the Bonds (Series A) will bear as stated in this section above; and (2) if the Bonds (Series A) are rated by more than one rating company and as long as they are rated by more than one rating company as stated, subsection (e) above will not apply, other than in a case in which all of the rating companies together cease to rate the Bonds (Series A), and the determination of the rating for the purpose of corresponding the interest rate to the change in the rating (if such a change occurs) shall be done, at any time according to the lowest rating among them.

 

 
18

 

I.In the case of a reduction of the rating, the Company will act in accordance with Subsection (b) above. If before the Date of Lowering the Rating, an increase occurs to the interest rate due to a deviation from one or more of the financial covenants based on the mechanism set forth in Section 5.3 below, the change that occurs to the interest for the adjustment mechanism set forth in this Section 5.2 above will be limited, according to the limitation on the maximum interest increase.

 

J.The Company undertakes to act such that, to the extent that it is in its control, the Bonds (Series A) are Rated by at least one Rating Company during the entire duration of the Bonds (Series A), and for the same purpose, the Company undertakes, inter alia, to pay the Rating Company the payments that it has undertaken to pay to the Rating Company, and to provide the Rating Company with the reports and information required thereby in the framework of the engagement between the Company and the Rating Company. In this regard, the non-performance of payments that the Company has undertaken to pay to the Rating Company and the failure to provide the reports and information required by the Rating Company in the framework of the engagement between the Company and the Rating Company will be deemed to be reasons and circumstances that are under the Company’s control. The Company does not undertake to refrain from replacing the Rating Company or to refrain from terminating the engagement therewith during the duration of the Bonds (Series A). In the event in which the Company replaces the Rating Company even if at the time of replacement it is not the only rating company that rates the Bonds (Series A) at the time of the replacement and/or terminates the work of a Rating Company (in the event in which it is not the only Rating Company), the Company undertakes to report the same in an immediate report and to inform the Trustee and the Bondholders thereof, and state the reasons for the change of the Rating Company in its notice, no later than one Trading Day from the date of the replacement as stated and/or the date of the decision to terminate the work of the Rating Company, whichever is earlier. It shall be clarified that the provisions above will not derogate from the right of the Company to replace the Rating Company or terminate the work of the Rating Company at any time (in the event in which it is not the only Rating Company), at its exclusive discretion and for any reason that it sees fit.

 

5.3Adjustment of the interest rate as a result of deviation from financial covenants:

 

The interest rate that the Bonds (Series A) will bear will be adjusted due to a deviation from the financial covenants set forth below:

 

  (1) Should the financial debt to EBITDA ratio (as defined below) exceed 8 (the “Covenant of Net Financial Debt to EBITDA Ratio”).1

 

For the purpose of this subsection (1) only:

 

Financial Debt” – Interest-bearing debt for short and long term from banks and other financial creditors plus interest-bearing debt to the Bondholders of the Bonds issued by the Company, on the basis of the Company’s most recent financial statements.

 

EBITDA” – net profit/loss plus interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and profit or loss from the sale of securities calculated according to the four quarters that ended on the date of the relevant financial statements –according to the Company’s financial statements.

 

 

 

1 The net financial debt to EBITDA ratio, based on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2024, is 6.75. This ratio is calculated by dividing the net financial debt of 558,916,111 by the EBITDA of 82,821,744.

 

 
19

 

  (2) Should the ratio of EBIDTA to total debt service payments of the company (DSCR) decreases below 1.10 (“the DSCR covenant”).2 For purpose of this subsection (2) only:

 

Total debt service payments of the Company” - (a) The sum of ongoing interest and principal payments of the company and its subsidiaries in respect of financial debt incurred by them, excluding the final principal payments according to the amortization schedules of the financial debt With the exception of recent fund payments classified in the financial statements under current liabilities; plus (b) mortgage insurance payments of the Company and its subsidiaries in respect of their assets; all calculated based on the four quarters ending on the relevant financial reporting date, in accordance with the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

 

(3)Should the consolidated equity of the Company (including minority rights) as of the last day on any calendar quarter according to the Company’s financial statements is less than USD 30 million (this amount will not be linked to any linkage base) (in this Section 5.3: the “Equity Covenant”).3

 

The Covenant of Net Financial Debt to EBITDA, the DSCR and the Equity Covenant shall collectively be referred to as the “Financial Criterion” and together, they shall be referred to as the “Financial Covenants.” It is clarified that if adjustment of interest is required in accordance with the mechanism described in this Section 5.3 above and below, and based on the mechanism described in Section 5.2 above, and pursuant to any other section in this Deed (if any), then in any event, the maximum aggregate rate of the additional interest rate will not exceed the maximum interest increase limitation (as defined in Section 5.2 above). Arrears interest, if applicable in accordance with Section 4(a) of the terms of the overleaf, will be added to the said rate and will not constitute part thereof.

 

 

 

2 The DSCR ratio is calculated based on the four quarters ending on the financial reporting date of the Company, which is March 31, 2024. The calculated ratio is 1.64, comprising an EBIDTA of 82,821,744 and total debt service payments of the company amounting to 50,536,787.

3 The total equity of the Company as of March 31, 2024, is 48,233,684.

 

 
20

 

In this regard:

 

The “Additional Interest Rate” - additional interest at a rate of 0.25% per annum for a deviation from the Financial Covenants.

 

The increase of the interest rate will take place only once for each deviation from any of the Financial Covenants, if such a deviation occurs, and the interest rate will not be increased again in the event that the deviation from the relevant Financial Covenants continues (in this regard, it shall be clarified that if the deviation from any of the Financial Covenants is remedied and thereafter there is an additional deviation, the aforesaid addition will apply). It shall be emphasized that in the event in which due to a decrease in the rating of the Bonds, the annual interest rate is increased in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.2 above, in any event, the additional interest rate under the same section, together with the additional interest rate under this Section 5.3, for the deviation from the Financial Covenants, will not exceed the limitation on the maximum interest increase.

 

The “Deviation Date” – the publication date of the financial statements that indicate the deviation.

 

A.If the Company deviates from any of the financial covenants under the Company’s reviewed or audited Financial Statements (the “Deviation”), the annual interest rate that the unpaid balance of the Bonds (Series A) will bear will be increased by the additional interest rate for the Deviation, above the interest rate as it was at the time, before the change, for the period that begins from the Deviation Date and until the earlier of the full repayment of the unpaid principal balance of the Bonds (Series A) or the date of the publication of the Company’s Financial Statements whereby the Company does not have a deviation from any of the financial covenants, all subject to the limitation on the maximum interest increase.

21

 

C.In the event in which the Deferral Date occurs during the days beginning four days before the effective date for the payment of any interest and ending on the subsequent interest payment date (the “Deferral Period”), the Company will pay the Bondholders (Series A) on the subsequent interest date, the Original Interest prior to the change only, while the interest rate arising from the addition of the interest in a rate equal to the additional annual interest rate during the Deferral Period will be paid on the following interest payment date. The Company will provide notice in an immediate report of the precise interest rate for payment on the following interest payment date.

 

D.In the event of a deviation from any of the Financial Covenants in a manner that impacts the interest rate that the Bonds (Series A) will bear (as stated in Paragraph A or Paragraph E), the Company will inform the Trustee thereof in writing within one business day from the date of the publication of the Financial Statements as stated.

 

E.It is clarified for the avoidance of doubt that in the event that after the Deviation the Company publishes its Financial Statements, based on which the Company has not deviated from any of the aforesaid Financial Covenants, the increase in the annual interest rate will be cancelled for the deviation (and due to the deviation being continued, to the extent of its continuing and as applicable) from any of the aforesaid Financial Covenants in a manner that annual interest rate that the bonds will bear will be reduced at the rate of the interest increase as aforesaid and this for the period in which the Company has not deviated from any of the Financial Covenants, which shall begin on the date of the publication of the Financial Statements that indicate non-deviation from the Financial Covenants, so that the interest rate that will be borne by the outstanding balance of the principal of the Bonds (Series A) shall be – if the interest rate has not previously been raised in respect of a decrease in the rating of the Bonds (Series A) as stated in Section 5.2 above and if there is no deviation from the other financial covenants – the interest rate that was determined in the Tender, (and in any event, the interest rate that the Bonds will bear will not be less than the interest rate determined in the Tender) or any other interest rate determined as a result of a decrease in the rating of the Bonds (Series A) as stated in section 5.2 above. In such a case, the Company will act in accordance with the provisions of Subsection (b) through (d) above, mutatis mutandis, as applicable and with respect to the Company’s non-deviation from the same Financial Covenants. It is clarified that in any case, the interest rate that the bonds will bear will not be lower than the interest rate established in the Tender.

 

 
22

 

F.The examination regarding the Company’s non-deviation from the financial covenants will be performed on the date of the publication of the Financial Statements by the Company and as long as the Bonds (Series A) exist in circulation with respect to the Financial Statements that the Company is required to publish until the same date.

 

The Company will specify as part of the notes to every financial report, the existence of a deviation or lack of deviation from the financial covenants.

 

For the avoidance of doubt, it shall be clarified that subject to the above and the limitation on the maximum interest increase, the additional interest payments as a result of the Lowered Rating as stated in Section ‎5.2 above and/or as a result of the Company’s non-compliance with any of the financial covenants as stated in this Section ‎5.3 above are aggregated. Therefore, in the event that a Lowered Rating occurs, while in addition the Company deviates from any of the financial criterion, one or more, the Bondholders (Series A) will be entitled to an increase in the interest rate as stated above, provided that the additional annual interest does not exceed the Limitation of the Maximum Additional Interest Rate.

23

 

D.To the extent that on the date of payment of the principal and/or interest in respect of the Company, the deposited amount in the Interest Cushion Account exceeds the Current Cushion Amount (“the Excess Amount”), the Company shall be entitled to instruct the Trustee to make use of the Excess Amount for making payments of principal and interest amounts that the Company is liable to pay to the Bondholders of Bonds (Series A). Under this Deed and pursuant to the Company’s request, the Trustee will transfer to the Nominee Company for payment on the date on which the payment is to be paid, up to the amount of the payment that was relevant by the Company’s notice or up to the amount of the Excess Amount, whichever is lower (and in the case of the transfer of the Excess Amount, subject to receipt of a reference from the Company regarding the transfer of the balance of the amount required for execution of the relevant payment to the Nominee Company).

F.It is hereby clarified that the non-deposit of funds in the Interest Cushion Account within 10 business days from the date of completion of any cushion, whether as part of the issue under this Prospectus or following the occurrence of events as specified in this section, shall constitute grounds for calling for immediate repayment of the balance of the Bonds (Series A) in circulation, as stated in subsection 8.1.29 below.

 

G.For the avoidance of doubt, it is clarified that the Company’s undertaking to transfer the funds to the Interest Cushion Account is not guaranteed by a mechanism that will ensure the performance of this undertaking.

H.It is hereby clarified that the Interest Cushion Amount (including the Current Cushion Amount), including the profits accrued for the same amounts, will be held by the Trustee for the Bondholders of the Bonds (Series A) only.

25.5.1.2Second - if, in the Trustee’s opinion, the amounts deposited in the Financing Cushion are insufficient to cover the Indemnification Undertaking, the holders that hold on the Effective Date (as stated in Section 25.6 below) will deposit the missing amount, each in accordance with the relative share (as this is defined), with the Trustee.

It is clarified that calculation of the relative share will remain effective even if after the same date a change occurs to the nominal value of the Bonds held by the Holder.

 

It shall be clarified that Bondholders that bear liability to cover expenses as stated in this Section above may bear expenses as stated in this section above in excess of their relative share, and in such a case, the priority will apply to the repayment of the funds in accordance with the provisions of Section ‎10 of This Deed.
