Deferred Financing Costs—Costs relating to debt issuance have been deferred and are presented as discounted against the underlying debt instrument. These costs are amortized to interest expense over the terms of the underlying debt instruments.

2021 Credit Facility—On April 27, 2021, the Company entered into a Senior Secured Credit Agreement providing for a $300.0 million credit facility comprised of a $175.0 million term loan and a $125.0 million revolving line of credit (the “2021 Credit Facility”), and used a portion of the proceeds from the 2021 Credit Facility to repay all amounts outstanding under the prior credit facility. The revolving line of credit portion of the 2021 Credit Facility includes a $20.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit. Subject to certain exceptions, all amounts under the 2021 Credit Facility will become due on April 27, 2026. The Company has the option to borrow incremental term loans or request an increase in the aggregate commitments under the revolving credit facility up to an aggregate amount of $150.0 million subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions.

 

The 2021 Credit Facility term loan must be repaid in quarterly installments and shall amortize at the following future quarterly rates:

Remaining balance

Repayments of quarterly installments were scheduled to begin with the quarter ended December 31, 2021. The first quarterly installment repayment, amounting to $2.2 million, was paid in January 2022. Exclusive of the payment made in respect of the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the quarterly installment repayments for the six months ended June 30, 2022 amounted to $4.4 million. The December 31, 2022 installment repayment, amounting to $2.2 million, was paid in January 2023. Exclusive of the payment made in respect of the quarter ended December 31, 2022, the quarterly installment repayments for the six months ended June 30, 2023 amounted to $4.4 million.

On May 31, 2023, the Company amended its 2021 Credit Facility agreement to transition the reference rate from LIBOR to SOFR. The transition to SOFR did not materially impact the interest rate paid by the Company or change any material terms of the 2021 Credit Facility.

The 2021 Credit Facility term loan and the revolving line of credit bear interest subject to the applicable spread based on Company’s leverage ratio and SOFR plus 0.10% as follows:

On May 30, 2023, the Company amended the interest rate swap transaction it entered into on January 27, 2022 (the "2022 Interest Rate Swap"), to convert the floating component of the interest rate on $100.0 million of borrowings to 1-Month Term SOFR and a new coupon of 1.319% until January 27, 2025. Prior to the amendment, the floating component of the interest rate was subject to LIBOR and a coupon of 1.39%. The transition to SOFR did not materially impact the interest rate paid by the Company or change any material terms of the 2022 Interest Rate Swap.

Further, on May 30, 2023, the Company entered into a second interest rate swap transaction fixing the floating component of the interest rate on an additional $70.0 million of borrowings to 1-Month Term SOFR and a coupon of 3.88% until April 27, 2026.

Additionally, effective September 1, 2022, the Company received an interest rate reduction of 0.05% under the 2021 Credit Facility based on the Company’s achievement of certain sustainability and environmental, social and governance related objectives as provided for in the 2021 Credit Facility.

The 2021 Credit Facility includes a number of covenants imposing certain restrictions on the Company’s business, including, among other things, restrictions on the Company’s ability, subject to certain exceptions and baskets, to incur indebtedness, incur liens on its assets, agree to any additional negative pledges, pay dividends or repurchase stock, limit the ability of its subsidiaries to pay dividends or distribute assets, make investments, enter into any transaction of merger or consolidation, liquidate, wind-up or dissolve, or convey any part of its business, assets or property, or acquire the business, property or assets of another person, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, enter into certain transactions with affiliates, engage in any material line of business substantially different from those engaged on the closing date, modify the terms of indebtedness subordinated to the loans incurred under the 2021 Credit Facility and modify the terms of its organizational documents. The 2021 Credit Facility also includes financial covenants which required the Company to remain below a maximum total net leverage ratio of 4.25 times until the fiscal quarter ended September 31, 2022, which stepped down to 4.00 times during the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2022 and applies through and including the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2023 and then further steps down to 3.75 times beginning with the fiscal

quarter ending December 31, 2023, and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25 times. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio (as defined in the 2021 Credit Facility) was 1.9 times and 1.3 times, respectively, and the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the 2021 Credit Facility.

The 2021 Credit Facility requires customary mandatory prepayments of the term loan and revolver and cash collateralization of letters of credit, subject to customary exceptions, including 100.0% of the proceeds of debt not permitted by the 2021 Credit Facility, 100.0% of the proceeds of certain dispositions, subject to customary reinvestment rights, where applicable, and 100.0% of insurance or condemnation proceeds, subject to customary reinvestment rights, where applicable. The 2021 Credit Facility also includes customary events of default and related acceleration and termination rights.

The weighted average interest rate on the 2021 Credit Facility for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, before giving effect to the impact of the interest rate swaps, was 6.3% and 2.2%, respectively.

The Company’s obligations under the 2021 Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s existing and future direct and indirect subsidiaries, and such obligations are secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets, including the capital stock or other equity interests in those subsidiaries.

Loan and Aircraft Security Agreement—On May 18, 2023, the Company entered into a Loan and Aircraft Security Agreement to finance $10.9 million of the purchase a new aircraft (the "Aircraft Loan"). The Aircraft Loan must be repaid in 60 monthly consecutive installments and all outstanding amounts will become due on May 18, 2028. The Aircraft Loan bears interest subject to 1-Month Term SOFR and a coupon of 1.86%. The entire principal balance may be prepaid in full subject to a 3.0%, 2.0% and 1.0% prepayment fee if paid prior to the first, second and third anniversary of the loan, respectively. The aircraft serves as collateral security for the Aircraft Loan.

Equipment Line of Credit—The Company has a $5.0 million equipment leasing facility for the purchase of equipment and related freight, installation costs and taxes paid. Any unused capacity on this equipment leasing facility expires on December 31, 2023, with a 3-month extension option expiring on March 31, 2024. Interest on the line of credit is determined based on a three-year swap rate at the time of funding. Equipment leased through this line of credit met the finance lease criteria as per ASC 842 and accordingly is accounted for as finance lease right-of-use assets and finance lease liabilities (Note 6).

The following is a schedule of the aggregate annual maturities of long-term debt presented on the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of financial position, gross of deferred debt issuance cost of $1.5 million, based on the terms of the 2021 Credit Facility and the Aircraft Loan:
