- With regard to Series 3, the current interest rate is replaced with SOFR Compound 6 months (as defined in the Final Conditions attached) plus a margin of 0.92826% payable semi-annually. Once the consent of 100% of the holders has been received, the first interest payment date affected by the modification will be 17th October, 2023.
