Kosmos says the facility provides up to $250 million for the repayment of its outstanding unsecured notes. It comprises two tranches, the first worth $150 million to be drawn at close, while the remaining $100 million will be available for drawing until April 1. Kosmos adds that the facility has a SOFR plus 3.75% interest rate, with a final maturity date of four years after closing.
