Arrangements approved in principle before January 1, 1987 were reported in International Capital Markets: Developments and Prospects, World Economic and Financial Surveys (Washington: International Monetary Fund, April 1989).

For public debt, pre-December 9, 1982, debt originally falling due prior to January 1, 1986, which has been previously restructured, and debt originally falling due after December 31, 1985, which has not been previously restructured. Excluded is indebtedness under the 1983 and 1985 term credit agreements and the 1985 trade credit and deposit facility, which is rescheduled on different terms. For private-sector borrowers, the restructuring of principal maturities of pre-December 9, 1982, indebtedness maturing subsequent to December 31, 1985, including previously restructured maturities. Up to $5 billion of eligible debt could be exchanged at par for 25–year exit bonds carrying a fixed 4 percent yield.

The agreement provides also for repricing and retiming of public sector debt. The savings to Brazil from repricing, which will consist of a reduction in the spread over the London interbank offered rate (LIBOR) from their current range (1.125–2.414) to , are estimated at $100 million in 1988 and $380 million in 1989. Retiming of interest periods from a quarterly to a six-monthly basis is estimated to provide relief of $600 million in 1988.

Excluding (1) about $1 billion corresponding to repayments on voluntary lending after January 1, 1983 falling due in 1988–93; and (2) amounts under switching operations (see footnote 6). Up to $5 billion of eligible debt could be exchanged at par for 25–year exit bonds carrying 6 percent fixed yield.

Includes at least $2,850 million in parallel financing with the World Bank; two cofinancing facilities with the World Bank for up to $500 million and $210 million, respectively; and new money bonds for up to $1 billion.

Banks will be permitted to switch up to $1.8 billion of interbank commitments to trade commitments during 1988–90.

Interest periods under all agreements were temporarily converted to periods of 12 months providing relief in 1988 of an estimated $415 million.

Amendments also allow for repayments in Chilean currency and the pledge of collaterals to facilitate debt reduction, hedging operations, and the raising of voluntary new money. New money may be collateralized in amounts of up to $100 million in 1988, $200 million in 1989, and $200 million a year, thereafter, with an aggregate limit of $500 million outstanding at any point after 1989. No more than $200 million of new money can be collateralized with exportable assets. The limit on collateral for risk-management techniques is $150 million.

Spreads and guarantee fees would revert to their previous levels should Chile ask for new money “on a concerted basis” before the end of 1989.

Amendments to the 1985 new money agreement also allow for an increase, as of January 1, 1989, of $35 million in relending. To facilitate the reduction in spreads, the fee paid by banks on the World Bank guarantee, under the 1985 cofinancing agreement, was reduced by ¼ of 1 percentage point.

The amendments provide for an extension of the retiming periods during which annual interest periods, which had been scheduled to revert to six-month interest periods, will be maintained. The extension will be until 1993 for 1985 new money; until 1994 for 1983 and 1984 new money; until 1995 for the 1983–84 restructuring agreements; and until 1996 for the 1985–91 restructuring agreements.

Voluntary amortization payments made during the grace period would be matched on a 1:1 basis by debt forgiveness (equivalent to a buy-back option at 50 cents on the dollar).

Interest rate would be increased by a maximum of 3 percentage points if GDP growth exceeds a threshold rate.

Seventy percent of these arrears to be forgiven in 1990 upon downpayment equal to 5 percent of these arrears. Beginning at the end of 1990 and provided that Honduras remains current on interest due on all rescheduled amounts under the agreement, the creditor bank would further forgive interest arrears by a yearly amount equal to 5 percent of the arrears outstanding at end-October 1989.

Amount of debt on which terms were modified is not known because repayments made during 1985–87 have not been identified.

Amortization of rescheduled amounts subject to relending at the choice of creditors, but within certain limits of the domestic credit program established by the Mexican authorities.

New money options include medium-term loan, new money bonds, on-lending facility, and medium-term trade facility.

Spread to increase to 1¼ percentage points at the end of the grace period.

Includes $112 million of previously capitalized interest arrears on letters of credit.

Allowance for re-lending for up to 366 days of up to 20 percent of the new money on a revolving basis, of which one half would be available in any one calendar year and one half would be available to the private sector.

As of end-December 1989.

Payment is to be deferred until December 30, 1991. Alternatively, banks may receive payments according to the original schedule in return for an equal increase in the short-term revolving trade facility.

Payment was deferred until the second quarter of 1990.

Net of $24 million of prepayment required under the agreement.

The interest rate of LIBOR plus ⅞ applies to the new money bonds issued by the Central Bank (as opposed to the Republic of Venezuela).

There will be monthly payments of $3 million for the May 1987–May 1988 period, except for July 1987 when the payment due is $3.5 million.

Under this agreement Zaïre would make monthly payments of $4 million, which roughly covers interest on outstanding claims (including principal and interest arrears).

The spread over LIBOR is expected to remain 1¾ A percentage points for the first three years, to decline to 1½ percentage points for the next five years, and to 1¼ percentage points for the final four years, subject to the borrowers’ compliance with the terms and conditions of the agreement.
