The conversion rate will initially equal 1.4997 shares of our common stock per $25.00 principal amount of notes (equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $16.67 per share of our common stock). The conversion rate, and thus the conversion price, will be subject to adjustment as described in this prospectus supplement. Following the occurrence of a make-whole fundamental change or if we deliver a notice of redemption, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder that converts its notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change or notice of redemption, as the case may be.
We may not redeem the notes prior to August 15, 2021. We may redeem for cash all or any portion of the notes, at our option, on or after August 15, 2021 if the last reported sale price of our common stock has been at least 120% of the conversion price then in effect for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date. No “sinking fund” will be provided for the notes.
So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, The Southern Company may defer interest payments on the Series 2015A Junior Subordinated Notes on one or more occasions for up to 40 consecutive quarterly periods as described in this Prospectus Supplement. Deferred interest payments will accrue additional interest at a rate equal to the interest rate then applicable to the Series 2015A Junior Subordinated Notes, compounded quarterly, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
Coupopn is fixed at 5.75% until 6/15/2026 after which it is reset quarterly at 3 month Libor plus a fixed spread of 4.04%
So long as no event of default with respect to the Debentures has occurred and is continuing, we may, on one or more occasions, in our sole discretion, defer interest payments on the Debentures for one or more interest periods (each, a “deferral period”) of up to five consecutive years without giving rise to an event of default under the terms of the Debentures. A deferral of interest payments cannot extend, however, beyond the maturity date or the earlier acceleration or redemption of the Debentures. During a deferral period, interest will continue to accrue on the Debentures, and deferred interest payments will accrue additional interest at the then applicable interest rate on the Debentures, compounded quarterly as of each interest payment date to the extent permitted by applicable law. No interest otherwise due during a deferral period will be due and payable on the Debentures until the end of such deferral period except upon an acceleration or redemption of the Debentures during such deferral period.
