This excerpt taken from the PBG 8-K filed Sep 16, 2009.
Debt Covenants – Certain of our senior notes have redemption features and non-financial covenants that will, among other things, limit our ability to create or assume liens, enter into sale and lease-back transactions, engage in mergers or consolidations and transfer or lease all or substantially all of our assets. Additionally, certain of our credit facilities and senior notes have financial covenants consisting of the following:
 
•   Our debt to capitalization ratio should not be greater than .75 on the last day of a fiscal quarter when PepsiCo’s ratings are A- by S&P and A3 by Moody’s or higher. Debt is defined as total long-term and short-term debt plus accrued interest plus total standby letters of credit and other guarantees less cash and cash equivalents not in excess of $500 million. Capitalization is defined as debt plus PBG shareholders’ equity plus noncontrolling interests, excluding the impact of the cumulative translation adjustment.
 
•   Our debt to EBITDA ratio should not be greater than five on the last day of a fiscal quarter when PepsiCo’s ratings are less than A- by S&P or A3 by Moody’s. EBITDA is defined as the last four quarters of earnings before depreciation, amortization, net interest expense, income taxes, net income attributable to noncontrolling interests, net other non-operating expenses and extraordinary items.
 
•   New secured debt should not be greater than 15 percent of our net tangible assets. Net tangible assets are defined as total assets less current liabilities and net intangible assets.
 
As of December 27, 2008 we were in compliance with all debt covenants.
