Refinancing of Credit Agreement and Term B Borrowings
On March 6, 2018, we entered into a new $605.0 million Senior Credit Facility (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for (i) a revolving credit facility with an initial maximum aggregate amount of availability of $100.0 million that matures in March 2023 and (ii) a $505.0 million Term Loan B facility due in quarterly principal installments commencing June 29, 2018, with all remaining outstanding principal due at maturity in March 2025. Availability under the revolving credit facility is reduced by outstanding letters of credit, which were approximately $5.1 million as of September 30, 2021. We may (a) increase the aggregate principal amount of any outstanding tranche of term loans or add one or more additional tranches of term loans under the loan documents, and/or (b) increase the aggregate principal amount of revolving commitments or add one or more additional revolving loan facilities under the loan documents by an aggregate amount of up to the sum of (1) $125.0 million and (2) an amount such that, after giving effect to such incurrence of such amount (but excluding the cash proceeds of such incremental facilities and certain other indebtedness, and treating all commitments in respect of revolving indebtedness as fully drawn), the consolidated first lien net leverage ratio is equal to or less than 3.80 to 1.00, if certain conditions are satisfied, including the absence of a default or an event of default under the Credit Agreement at the time of the increase and that we obtain the consent of each lender providing any incremental facility.
We had approximately $94.9 million in available borrowing capacity under our $100.0 million revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2021.
Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are currently guaranteed by our material domestic subsidiaries and will from time to time be guaranteed by, subject in each case to certain exceptions, any domestic subsidiaries that may become material in the future. Subject to certain exceptions, the Credit Agreement is secured by first-priority perfected liens and security interests in substantially all of our personal property and each subsidiary guarantor.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a variable rate equal to (i) LIBOR plus a specified margin, or (ii) the base rate (which is the highest of (a) Bank of America, N.A.’s prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% or (c) the sum of 1% plus one-month LIBOR) plus a specified margin. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, the weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings under our Term Loan B facility was approximately 3.5%. We have entered into interest rate swap agreements to hedge certain of our interest rate exposures, as more fully disclosed in Note M - “Derivative Financial Instruments.”
We must also pay (i) an unused commitment fee ranging from 0.375% to 0.500% per annum of the average daily unused portion of the aggregate revolving credit commitments under the Credit Agreement, and (ii) a per annum fee equal to (a) for each performance standby letter of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement with respect to nonfinancial contractual obligations, 50% of the applicable margin over LIBOR under the revolving credit facility in effect from time to time multiplied by the daily amount available to be drawn under such letter of credit, and (b) for each other letter of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement, the applicable margin over LIBOR under the revolving credit facility in effect from time to time multiplied by the daily amount available to be drawn for such letter of credit.
The Credit Agreement contains various restrictions and covenants, including: (i) requirements that we maintain certain financial ratios at prescribed levels, (ii) a prohibition on payment of dividends and other distributions and (iii) restrictions on our ability and certain of our subsidiaries to consolidate or merge, create liens, incur additional indebtedness, dispose of assets, or consummate acquisitions outside the healthcare industry. The Credit Agreement includes the following financial covenants applicable for so long as any revolving loans and/or revolving commitments remain outstanding under the Credit Agreement (some of which were amended in May 2020 by the Amendment (as defined and described below)): (i) a maximum consolidated first lien net leverage ratio (“Net Leverage Ratio”) (defined as, with certain adjustments and exclusions, the ratio of consolidated first-lien indebtedness to consolidated net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash charges and certain other items (“EBITDA”) for the most recently ended period of four fiscal quarters for which financial statements are available) of 4.25 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2021 through March 31, 2022; and 3.75 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2022 and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter; and (ii) a minimum interest coverage ratio (defined as, with certain adjustments, the ratio of our EBITDA to consolidated interest expense to the extent paid or payable in cash) of 2.75 to 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter.
The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default. If an event of default under the Credit Agreement occurs and is continuing, then the lenders may declare any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable; provided, however, that the occurrence of an event of default as a result of a breach of a financial covenant under the Credit Agreement does not constitute a default or event of default with respect to any term facility under the Credit Agreement unless and until the required revolving lenders shall have terminated their revolving commitments and declared all amounts outstanding under the revolving credit facility to be due and payable. In addition, if we or any subsidiary guarantor becomes the subject of voluntary or involuntary proceedings under any bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar law, then any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement will automatically become immediately due and payable. Loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate of 2.00% per annum in excess of the otherwise applicable rate (i) upon acceleration of such loans, (ii) while a payment event of default exists or (iii) upon the lenders’ request, during the continuance of any other event of default.
In May 2020, we entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) that provided for, amongst other things, an increase in the maximum Net Leverage Ratio to 5.00 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2021; and 4.75 to 1.00 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021 and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter. In addition, the Amendment changed the definition of EBITDA used in the Net Leverage Ratio and minimum interest coverage ratio to adjust for declines in net revenue attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility will bear interest at a variable rate equal to the greater of LIBOR or 1%, plus 3.75%. In addition, the Amendment contained certain restrictions and covenants that further limit our ability, and certain of our subsidiaries’ ability, to consolidate or merge, create liens, incur additional indebtedness, dispose of assets, or consummate acquisitions not financed with the proceeds of an equity offering, except that certain acquisitions are permitted after September 30, 2020, in the event we maintain certain leverage and liquidity thresholds. We capitalized debt issuance costs of $0.2 million in connection with the Amendment, which were recorded in Other assets.
We were in compliance with all covenants at September 30, 2021.
Seller Notes and the Deferred Payment Obligation
We typically issue subordinated promissory notes (“Seller Notes”) as a part of the consideration transferred when making acquisitions. The Seller Notes are unsecured and are presented net of unamortized discount of $0.8 million and $0.9 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. We measure these instruments at their estimated fair values as of the respective acquisition dates. The stated interest rates on these instruments range from 2.50% to 3.00%. Principal and interest are payable in quarterly or annual installments and mature through August 2026.
Amounts due under the deferred payment obligation to the former shareholders of an acquired O&P business are unsecured and presented net of unamortized discount of $0.4 million and $0.5 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The deferred payment obligation was measured at its estimated fair value as of the acquisition date and accrues interest at a rate of 3.0%. Principal and interest payments under the deferred payment obligation are due in annual installments beginning in 2024 and for three years thereafter.
