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 outstanding bridge loan without facing any legal consequences at all.
  3. To provide a window in which the company's reported EBITDA can be reduced in order to satisfy its maintenance covenants.
  4. To give the issuer enough time to convert the bridge loan into permanent equity capital that never has to be repaid to anyone.
