On April 13, 2023, The Dayton Power and Light Company, doing business as AES Ohio (“AES Ohio”), the principal subsidiary of DPL Inc., entered into a 54th supplemental indenture (the “54th Supplemental Indenture”), dated as of April 1, 2023, with The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Trustee”) to its First and Refunding Mortgage, dated as of October 1, 1935, with the Trustee, as amended and supplemented. The information reported below in Item 2.03 of this Form 8-K is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation
On April 13, 2023, AES Ohio completed the offering of $100 million in aggregate principal amount of First Mortgage Bonds, 5.19% Series due 2033 (the “New First Mortgage Bonds”) in a private placement. The offer and sale of the New First Mortgage Bonds has not been registered under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws and, consequently, the New First Mortgage Bonds may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws. AES Ohio intends to use the proceeds from the offering to repay existing indebtedness, including amounts outstanding under AES Ohio’s Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of December 22, 2022, among AES Ohio, each lender from time to time party thereto, PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, swing loan lender and an issuing lender, PNC Capital Markets LLC, as joint bookrunner and joint lead arranger, and US Bank, National Association, as an issuing lender, as well as for general corporate purposes.
Interest on the New First Mortgage Bonds is payable on May 1 and November 1 of each year, commencing November 1, 2023. Principal on the New First Mortgage Bonds is payable, unless earlier prepaid, on the maturity date, which is April 13, 2033.
AES Ohio may prepay some or all of the New First Mortgage Bonds at any time before January 13, 2033 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus a make-whole premium calculated based on the applicable Treasury Rate (as defined in the 54th Supplemental Indenture) plus 50 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. AES Ohio may prepay some or all of the New First Mortgage Bonds at any time on or after January 13, 2033 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.
The foregoing description of the terms of the 54th Supplemental Indenture is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 54th Supplemental Indenture that is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
