Credit Facility.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company had a borrowing base of $75.0 million under its credit facility, with $59.0 million outstanding and $4.3 million in outstanding letters of credit, which reduces availability under the credit facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis. This leaves $11.7 million available to be drawn under the credit facility. The next borrowing base redetermination is expected to occur during the fourth quarter of 2020. The credit facility matures on April 1, 2021.

The interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the credit facility was determined by a pricing grid tied to borrowing base utilization of (a) LIBOR plus an applicable margin that varies from 2.00% to 3.00% per annum, or (b) the base rate plus an applicable margin that varies from 1.00% to 2.00% per annum. Interest on base rate borrowings is payable quarterly in arrears and interest on LIBOR borrowings is payable every one, two, three or six months, at the election of the Company. Quarterly, the Company pays commitment fees assessed at annual rates of 0.50% on any available portion of the credit facility. During the three and six-month period ended June 30, 2020, the weighted average interest rate paid for borrowings outstanding under the credit facility was approximately 3.0% and 3.4%, respectively.

The Company has the right to prepay loans under the credit facility at any time without a prepayment penalty, other than customary “breakage” costs with respect to LIBOR loans.

The credit facility is secured by (i) first-priority mortgages on at least 85% of the PV-9 valuation of all proved reserves included in the most recently delivered reserve report of the Company, (ii) a first-priority perfected pledge of substantially all of the capital stock owned by each credit party and equity interests in the Royalty Trusts that are owned by a credit party and (iii) a

first-priority perfected security interest in substantially all the cash, cash equivalents, deposits, securities and other similar accounts, and other tangible and intangible assets of the credit parties (including but not limited to as-extracted collateral, accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, general intangibles, investment property, intellectual property, real property and the proceeds of the foregoing).

The credit facility includes events of default and certain customary affirmative and negative covenants. The Company must also continue to maintain certain financial covenants including (i) a maximum consolidated total net leverage ratio, measured as of the end of any fiscal quarter, of no greater than 3.50 to 1.00 and (ii) a minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio, measured as of the end of any fiscal quarter, of no less than 2.25 to 1.00. As of June 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants and had a consolidated total net leverage ratio of 0.5 and consolidated interest coverage ratio of 27.93.
