The Amendment provides for (i)an increase in ֱ’s consolidated indebtedness to consolidated capitalization ratio financial covenant to 0.70 to 1.00 (from 0.60 to 1.00) through the last day of the fiscal quarter ending March31, 2022, (ii) calculation of consolidated indebtedness (and, thereby consolidated capitalization) net of unrestricted cash of ֱ and its subsidiaries and (iii)testing of such financial covenant solely as of the last day of each fiscal quarter during such period. In addition, the Amendment requires ֱ and its subsidiaries to maintain minimum liquidity in the form of unrestricted cash and unused financing commitments of not
less than $750.0million at all times during such period. As of December 2020, ֱ was in compliance with all covenants.
