Commitments and contingencies

The Company may be involved in legal actions in the ordinary course of business, including governmental and administrative investigations, inquiries and proceedings concerning employment, labor, environmental and other claims. The Company will recognize a loss contingency in the consolidated financial statements when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. The Company will disclose any loss contingencies that do not meet both conditions if there is a reasonable possibility that a loss may have been incurred. Gain contingencies are not recorded until realized.

EELP and certain of its subsidiaries, and other entities under common control of Kaiser, were guarantors to a Kaiser revolving loan facility prior to Excelerate’s IPO. EELP provided a first lien against one of the Company’s vessels to collateralize this facility. The facility was a committed line of $600 million with a third-party bank that would expire on September 30, 2022 (the “Kaiser Credit Line”). EELP utilized the Kaiser Credit Line to issue letters of credit or bank guarantees to counterparties to guarantee its performance. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had issued $142.5 million in letters of credit under the Kaiser Credit Line. In connection with the IPO, the first lien against an EELP vessel and other collateral and guarantees provided by EELP and its subsidiaries was released by the lender under the Kaiser Credit Line and certain credit support previously provided to EELP by Kaiser under the Kaiser Credit Line was replaced with credit support under the EE Revolver. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had issued $40 million in letters of credit under the EE Revolver.
