On November 2, 2023, the New York Transportation Development Corporation
(“NYTDC”) issued its Special Facilities Revenue Bonds, Series 2023 (Delta Air Lines, Inc. – LaGuardia Airport Terminals
C&D Redevelopment Project), in the aggregate principal amount of $877,855,000 (the “2023 Bonds”). NYTDC loaned the proceeds
from the 2023 Bonds to Delta Air Lines, Inc. (“Delta,” “we” or “us”) (i) to finance a portion of the
costs relating to a construction project that Delta is undertaking at LaGuardia Airport in Queens, New York (“LGA Airport”),
which consists of the demolition of substantially all of LGA Airport’s previously existing Terminals C and D, the design and construction
of new terminal facilities at LGA Airport, and the design and construction of certain other facilities at LGA Airport (the “Facilities”),
(ii) to pay interest on the 2023 Bonds, and (iii) to pay costs of issuance related to the 2023 Bonds.
We are required to pay debt service on the 2023 Bonds through payments
under loan agreements with NYTDC, and we have guaranteed the 2023 Bonds. Our obligations under the guaranty, the loan agreements and the
related promissory notes are secured by mortgages (the “Leasehold Mortgages”) on our lease of the Facilities and related property
(the “Lease”) from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (the “Port Authority”).
The 2023 Bonds were issued as term bonds as follows:
Series 2023 Term Bonds |
Maturity Dates |
Amount |
Initial Long-Term Interest Rate |
Yield |
April 1, 2035 |
$428,085,000 |
6.000% |
5.600%(1) |
April 1, 2040 |
$449,770,000 |
5.625% |
5.850% |
| (1) | Yield to the optional par call date of
April 1, 2031. |
Interest will be payable by us on April 1, 2024 and on each October
1 and April 1 thereafter. Each maturity of the 2023 Bonds is subject to annual mandatory sinking fund redemption requirements commencing
four years prior to its maturity.
The 2023 Bonds are subject to optional redemption, in whole or in part,
on any date on or after April 1, 2031, at the option of NYTDC at the direction of Delta, at a price equal to the unpaid principal amount
of the bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued but unpaid interest to (but not including) the date of redemption, without premium. In addition,
the 2023 Bonds are subject to optional redemption at a price equal to the unpaid principal amount of the 2023 Bonds to be redeemed, plus
accrued but unpaid interest to (but not including) the date of redemption, without premium, if a failure to redeem the bonds (or a portion
thereof) may adversely affect the exclusion of interest from the gross income of the bondholders and redemption would permit continuance
of such exclusion.
The 2023 Bonds are also subject to mandatory redemption, in whole or
in part, at a price equal to the unpaid principal amount of the bonds to be redeemed, plus accrued but unpaid interest to (but not including)
the date of redemption, without premium, (i) to the extent the Port Authority pays unamortized capital investment attributable to lessee
debt under the Lease, (ii) if the Port Authority pays the lessee debt under the Lease after a default by us under the Lease, (iii) to
the extent we make any payment in connection with certain releases of the premises pursuant to the Leasehold Mortgages, or (iv) in certain
circumstances, if interest on the 2023 Bonds is determined to be taxable as a result of our breach of an applicable representation, warranty
or covenant.
On or after April 1, 2031, the 2023 Bonds may be subject to mandatory
tender for purchase, in whole or in part, at the option of NYTDC at the direction of Delta.
Amounts payable with respect to the 2023 Bonds can be accelerated upon
the occurrence of certain events of default, including failure to pay principal and interest when due and the occurrence of certain bankruptcy
events with respect to us.
