The 2024 Senior Notes were issued under the Indenture, dated as of August 1, 2017, by and between the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company (the “Guarantors”) and Wells Fargo, National Association, as trustee (the “Indenture”). The 2024 Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company. The 2024 Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company’s current subsidiaries and by certain future restricted subsidiaries that guarantee indebtedness under a credit facility.

At any time prior to May 15, 2020, the Company may, from time to time, redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Senior Notes with an amount of cash not greater than the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 107.375% of the principal amount of the 2024 Senior Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption, provided that at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of 2024 Senior Notes issued under the Indenture remains outstanding immediately after such redemption and the redemption occurs within 180 days of the closing date of such equity offering.
At any time prior to May 15, 2020, the Company may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or a part of the 2024 Senior Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2024 Senior Notes redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, the date of redemption.
On and after May 15, 2020, the Company may redeem the 2024 Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at the redemption prices set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption if redeemed during the twelve-month period beginning on May 15 of the years indicated below:
