What is the 'bridge-to-takeout' window typically intended to accomplish?

  1. To allow the issuer to wait for a favorable market 'window' to issue permanent bonds at the lowest possible spread.
  2. To allow the issuer to default on the bridge loan without legal consequences.
  3. To provide a window where the company's EBITDA can be reduced to satisfy maintenance covenants.
  4. To give the issuer time to convert the bridge loan into permanent equity that never has to be repaid.
