PennyMac Mortgage Investment Trust Announces LIBOR Replacement Rate for its Series A and Series B Preferred Shares
25 Août 2023 - 10:30PM
Business Wire
In March 2021, the U.K.'s Financial Conduct Authority announced
that after June 30, 2023, the USD LIBOR for a three-month tenor
would cease publication or no longer be representative. In
connection with the cessation of representative USD LIBOR, in March
2022, the U.S. Congress enacted the Adjustable Interest Rate
(LIBOR) Act (the "LIBOR Act”), and in December 2022 the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve")
issued a final rule thereunder (the "LIBOR Rule”). The LIBOR Rule
provides with respect to any reference in the terms of a security
requiring a poll or inquiries for quotes or information related to
USD LIBOR (“Polling Provisions”) contained in so called “fallback
provisions” applicable in the event USD LIBOR is not published,
such Polling Provisions shall be disregarded and deemed null and
void and without any force or effect.
In accordance with the Articles Supplementary for each of the
Series A Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Preferred
Shares of Beneficial Interest (the “Series A Preferred Shares”) and
the Series B Fixed-to-Floating Rate Cumulative Redeemable Preferred
Shares of Beneficial Interest (the “Series B Preferred Shares”),
and disregarding the Polling Provisions contained therein, the
applicable dividend rate for dividend periods from and after March
15, 2024, in the case of the Series A Preferred Shares, or June 15,
2024, in the case of the Series B Preferred Shares, shall be
calculated at the dividend rate in effect for the immediately
preceding dividend period. As a result, the Series A Preferred
Shares and Series B Preferred Shares will continue to accumulate
dividends from and after March 15, 2024, in the case of the Series
A Preferred Shares, or June 15, 2024, in the case of the Series B
Preferred Shares, at their current annual fixed rate and will not
transition to a floating reference rate.
