(1)  
 
These floating rate loans and related liabilities are indexed to the various benchmark rates relevant in each arrangement in terms of currency and payment frequency. Therefore the net exposure to each benchmark rate is in direct proportion to our net assets indexed to that rate. In addition to cash coupon, yield/cost includes the amortization of deferred origination fees / financing costs.
 
(2)
 
Other than amounts guaranteed on an asset by asset basis, borrowings under our asset-specific financings are
non-recourse
to us.
 
(3)
 
The weighted-average term is determined based on the maximum maturity of the corresponding loans, assuming all extension options are exercised by the borrower. Each of our asset-specific financings is term-matched to the corresponding collateral loans.
 
The weighted-average outstanding balance of our asset-specific financings was $342.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and $293.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019.
Revolving Credit Agreement
We have a $250.0 million full recourse secured revolving credit agreement with Barclays that is designed to finance first mortgage originations for up to nine months as a bridge to term financing or syndication. Advances under the agreement are subject to availability under a specified borrowing base and accrue interest at a per annum pricing rate equal to the sum of (i) an applicable base rate or Eurodollar rate and (ii) an applicable margin, in each case, dependent on the applicable type of loan collateral. The maturity date of the facility is April 4, 2023.
During the three months ended March 31, 2020, 
we had no
borrowings under the revolving credit agreement and we recorded interest expense of $496,000, including $274,000
 
of amortization of deferred fees and expenses. 
During the three months ended December 31, 2019,
we had no
borrowings under the revolving credit agreement and we recorded interest expense of $490,000, including $266,000 of amortization of deferred fees and expenses.
Debt Covenants
The guarantees related to our secured debt agreements contain the following financial covenants: (i) our ratio of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, or EBITDA, to fixed charges, as defined in the agreements, shall be not less than 1.4 to 1.0; (ii) our tangible net worth, as defined in the agreements, shall not be less than $2.8 billion as of each measurement date plus 75% of the net cash proceeds of future equity issuances subsequent to March 31, 2020; (iii) cash liquidity shall not be less than the greater of (x) $10.0 million or (y) no more than 5% of our recourse indebtedness; and (iv) our indebtedness shall not exceed 83.33% of our total assets. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we were in compliance with these covenants. Refer to Note 7 for information regarding financial covenants contained in the agreements governing our senior secured term loan facility.
