The Company may during a period of up to five years draw loans of varying maturities, and any amounts drawn by the Company under the Facility will be used for general corporate purposes. The Facility is guaranteed by the Company and Autoliv ASP, Inc. As with all of the existing principal debt arrangements of the Company, the Agreement does not contain any financial covenants but does include customary events of default. As of July 18, 2024, no borrowings were drawn under the Facility.
The foregoing description of the Agreement does not purpose to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ending September 30, 2024.
