DFC Loan

Tetra4 entered into a US$40.0 million finance agreement with the US International Development Finance Corporation ("DFC") on 20 August 2019 ("Facility Agreement"). The first draw down of US$20.0 million took place in September 2019, the second draw down of US$12.5 million in June 2020 and the final drawdown of US$7.5 million on 28 September 2021. Tetra4 shall repay the loan in equal quarterly instalments of US$1.1 million (R16.7 million using the rate at 31 May 2022) on each payment date beginning on 1 August 2022 and ending on 15 August 2031. The loan is secured by a pledge of the Group's assets under construction, land and the Debt Service Reserve Account.

The first drawdown of $20.0 million attracts interest of 2.11% per annum. Interest on the second and final drawdowns is 1.49% and 1.24% per annum, respectively. Interest is payable by Tetra4 to the DFC quarterly on 15 February, 15 May, 15 August and 15 November of each year ("Repayment Dates") for the duration of the loan. This interest is capitalised to assets under construction within property, plant and equipment in line with the Group policy. Interest paid during the quarter totalled US$0.2 million (R2.8 million).

A guaranty fee of 4% per annum is payable by Tetra4 to DFC on any outstanding loan balance. The guaranty fee is payable quarterly on the Repayment Dates. Tetra4 paid guaranty fees totalling US$0.4 million (R6.4 million) during the quarter.

A commitment fee of 0.5% per annum was payable by Tetra4 to the DFC on any undisbursed amounts under the Facility Agreement. Commitment fees were payable quarterly on the Repayment Dates. Tetra4 did not pay any commitment fees during the quarter as there were no undrawn amounts during the period.

An annual maintenance fee of US$0.04 million is payable by Tetra4 to the DFC for the duration of the loan term and is payable on 15 November of each year, commencing on 15 November 2020. The maintenance fee covers administrative costs relating to the loan.

The DFC loan outstanding at 31 May 2022 amounted to US$40.0 million (R619.6 million).

IDC loan

Tetra4 entered into a R160.7 million loan agreement with the IDC on 17 December 2021. An amount of R158.8 million was drawn down on 22 December 2021 and is repayable in 102 equal monthly payments commencing in July 2023. The loan terms include a 12-month interest capitalisation and an 18-month capital repayment moratorium. The loan accrues interest at the prime lending rate plus 3.5% and is secured by a pledge of the Group's assets under construction, land and the Debt Service Reserve Account. The IDC loan outstanding at 31 May 2022 amounted to R166.7 million.

Molopo loan

Tetra4 entered into a R50.0 million loan agreement with Molopo on 1 May 2013. This loan was part of the conditions of the sale of shares in Tetra4 from Molopo to Windfall Energy Proprietary Limited. The loan agreement is for the period from inception of the loan on 1 May 2013 until 31 December 2022. During this period, the loan is unsecured and interest free. The loan can only be repaid when Tetra4 declares a dividend and utilising a maximum of 36% of the distributable profits in order to pay the dividend. If by 31 December 2022 the loan is not repaid, the loan shall bear interest at the prime lending rate plus 2% and will have no repayment terms. It is not expected that the loan will be repaid in the next 12 months given the unavailability of distributable profits. As such, the loan has been classified as long term. The loan advanced to Tetra4 by Renergen can only be repaid after the loan from Molopo has been settled.

The loan is discounted to its present value for the period that it is interest free, at a discount rate which is equal to the prime lending rate plus 2.00% which at 31 May 2022 is 9.75% (prime lending rate of 7.75% plus 2.00%). The imputed interest expense is included in profit and loss. The fair value of the loan amount outstanding at 31 May 2022 amounts to R47.9 million.

Debt covenants

The following debt covenants apply to the DFC loan:

  1. Tetra4 is required to maintain at all times i) a ratio of all interest bearing Debt to EBITDA of not more than 3.0 to 1; (ii) a ratio of Current Assets to Current Liabilities of not less than 1 to 1; and (iii) a Reserve Tail Ratio of not less than 25%.
  1. Tetra4 is required to maintain at all times (i) a ratio of Cash Flow for the most recently completed four (4) consecutive full fiscal quarters, taken as a single accounting period, to Debt Service for the most recently completed four (4) consecutive full fiscal quarters, taken as a single accounting period, of not less than 1.30 to 1; and (ii) a ratio of Cash Flow for the most recently completed four (4) consecutive full fiscal quarters, taken as a single accounting period, to Debt Service for the next succeeding four (4) consecutive full fiscal quarters of not less than 1.3 to 1.
  2. Tetra4 is required to ensure that the Debt Service Reserve Account is funded in the aggregate of all amounts due to the DFC within the next 6 months.

The covenants in a) and b) will apply 18 months after the completion of the construction of the Virginia Gas Plant. The Group has complied with the covenant under c) above for the quarter and believes that it will be able to comply with the covenants throughout the tenure of the loan.

"Reserve Tail Ratio" means for any calculation date, the quotient obtained by dividing (a) all of the Borrower's remaining Proved Reserves as of such calculation date by (b) all of the Borrower's Proved Reserves as of the date of this Agreement.

The following debt covenants apply to the IDC loan.
