The final rate will be in the best interest of both the borrower and lender, as that is where a transaction will take place. Are you suggesting that a transaction could have occurred at a lower rate, but the rate is being raised for the benefit of a particular class?

Well, the news release has been issued, not too long after you posted your message, and it is in fact a Senior Secured Note at 7.375% per annum. I would note that you do seem to take contradictory views here. On the one hand you have stated how valuable SanDisk is, and suggest that WDC is purchasing at a bargain price. Yet you believe debt that facilitates this bargain purchase is not in the interest of WDC shareholders.
