On February 12, 2019, we entered an amended and restated five-year Credit Agreement with a group of banks (the "Credit Agreement") to extend the term of the facility. The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of $300,000, which may be increased by $150,000 at the request of the Company, subject to the administrative agent's approval.

The revolving credit facility includes a swing line sublimit of $15,000 and a letter of credit sublimit of $10,000. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at the base rate defined in the Credit Agreement. We also pay a quarterly commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility. The commitment fee ranges from 0.20% to 0.30% based on our total leverage ratio.

The Credit Agreement requires, among other things, that we comply with a maximum total leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. Failure to comply with these covenants could reduce the borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility. We were compliant with all debt covenants at March 31, 2021. The Credit Agreement requires that we deliver quarterly financial statements, annual financial statements, auditor certifications, and compliance certificates within a specified number of days after the end of a quarter and year. Additionally, it contains restrictions limiting our ability to: dispose of assets; incur certain additional debt; repay other debt or amend subordinated debt instruments; create liens on assets; make investments, loans or advances; make acquisitions or engage in mergers or consolidations; engage in certain transactions with our subsidiaries and affiliates; and make stock

repurchases and dividend payments. Interest rates on the credit facility fluctuate based upon the LIBOR and the Company’s quarterly total leverage ratio.

We have debt issuance costs related to our long-term debt that are being amortized using the straight-line method over the life of the debt. Amortization expense for three months ended March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020 was approximately $42 and $42, respectively. These costs are included in interest expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statement of Earnings.

We use interest rate swaps to convert the revolving credit facility's variable rate of interest into a fixed rate on a portion of the debt as described more fully in Note 14 "Derivative Financial Instruments". These swaps are treated as cash flow hedges and consequently, the changes in fair value were recorded in other comprehensive earnings.
