Repurchase of Notes

 

We have engaged a broker-dealer to repurchase opportunistically, through open market transactions on our behalf, a portion of our outstanding unsecured 6.75% notes due 2027 and 6.6875% notes due 2028 (collectively, the “Notes”), which are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbols “ECCY” and “ECCX”, respectively. The price and other terms of any such repurchases will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity and other factors. Depending on market conditions, the amount of Note repurchases may be material and may continue through year-end 2020; however, we may reduce or extend this timeframe in our discretion and without notice. Any Note repurchases will comply with the provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We will retire the repurchased Notes, thereby reducing our outstanding leverage.
