CenturyLink Completes Private Offering of Senior Secured Notes

MONROE, La., Jan. 24, 2020 CenturyLink, Inc. (NYSE: CTL) announced that it completed its previously-announced sale of $1.25 billion aggregate principal amount of newly-issued 4.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”).

CenturyLink used the net proceeds from the offering to repay a portion of the indebtedness under its existing 2017 senior secured credit facilities.

The 2027 Notes are unconditionally guaranteed by each of CenturyLink’s domestic subsidiaries that guarantees CenturyLink’s 2017 senior secured credit facilities, subject to the receipt of certain regulatory approvals and various exceptions and limitations. While the 2027 Notes will not be secured by any of the assets of CenturyLink, the guarantees will be secured by a first priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of certain guarantors, which assets also secure obligations under CenturyLink’s 2017 senior secured credit facilities on a pari passu basis.

The 2027 Notes were privately placed without being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

CalFoods Logistics | Making A Difference for those in Need | Steve Linkhart

Steve Linkhart, CEO of CalFoods Logistics, believes that he possesses one quality that sets the tone for CalFoods Logistics. “When we hire a new team member, there are clear responsibilities that need to be accomplished. Once we hire, train, and let that person take the ownership of the job, we allow them to do their job,” he explains. “We are always there to assist of course, but I feel that people get a sense of ownership of their role when they are allowed to do so. Everyone has a role from being CEO to pulling or entering orders, everyone has their unique responsibilities, and the foundation is always customer service, without that, everything after is on shaky ground.” Steve feels that there isn’t a role here too big or too small for anyone to jump in and help. He has unloaded his fair share of trucks and pulled orders over the past 18 months and will be glad to do it again if needed. “Taking care of our team is of the utmost importance to me. We offer a living wage, amazing benefits, and time off for the team to have a good work/life balance.”
