WEST FRASER TIMBER CO., LTD

Long-Term Debt

In October 2014, we issued $300 million of fixed-rate senior unsecured notes, bearing interest at 4.35% and due October 2024, pursuant to a private placement in the U.S. The notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at our option at any time as provided in the indenture governing the notes.

We have a $200 million term loan maturing July 2025. Interest is payable at floating rates based on Base Rate Advances or SOFR Advances at our option. This loan is repayable at any time, in whole or in part, at our option and without penalty but cannot be redrawn after payment. On July 25, 2023, we amended and restated the term loan agreement to extend its maturity from August 2024 to July 2025 and replaced the LIBOR floating rate option with SOFR.

We have interest rate swap contracts to pay fixed interest rates and receive variable interest rates on $200 million notional principal amount of indebtedness. These swap agreements have the effect of fixing the interest rate on the $200 million 5-year term loan discussed above. In June 2023, these interest rate swaps were amended to reference 3-month SOFR (previously 3-month LIBOR) effective August 2023. The weighted average fixed interest rate payable under the contracts was 0.91% following the amendment (previously 1.14%).

In January 2024, these interest rate swaps were further amended to extend their maturity from August 2024 to July 2025. Following this amendment, the weighted average fixed interest rate payable under the contract is 2.61%.
