In addition to the. $15,188,000 of extended first-ipprtgage 3 Vz'./» bonds to be retired, the applicant's funded, debt also Includes $6,500,000 of first-mortgage 4% bonds of the Toledo, .St. Loyis, & ..Western RR., due April. 1, 1950, which are. redeemable on any interest,,date upon 6 months' notice at par and accrued interest, 'and $26,058,000 of refunding-mortgage 5Vs'/t bonds, series A, due April 1, 1974, which are redeemable on any interest date,, upom 60 days' notice, at 107 ?/2 and accrued interest. The program contemplates the redemption of these bonds and the creation of a new series of refunding-mortgage bonds which, the applicant believes,• can be issued at more favorable interest rates than those borne by the outstanding bonds. This belief is based upon the favorable market conditions now prevailing and the fact that the new refunding-mortgage bonds when issued would be a first lien upon all the applicant's railroad properties. It (is pointed out that after the. retirement of the extended first-mprtgage 3¥2% bonds; the applicant's funded debt, exclusive equipment obligations, will be reduced to $102,433,000 as of the end of the current year/ representing a reduction of $48,654,000.in funded debt since Jan. 1, 1937.
