On January 30, 2015, in connection with the Spin-off, the Company terminated its $55 million credit facility entered into with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. in 2012 and simultaneously entered into a new five year credit agreement with Wells Fargo with a maximum facility amount of $20 million (the "Credit Agreement"). The Credit Agreement provides a revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) with a $10 million sublimit available for standby letters of credit. At the time of the Spin-off, the Company refinanced $10,483,000 of borrowings then outstanding on the terminated revolver. As of March 31, 2016, there was $415,000 outstanding on the Company’s new credit facility, $2,796,000 letters of credit commitment and $16,789,000 available for borrowing. The credit agreement contains certain conditions and financial covenants, including a minimum $110 million tangible net worth. As of March 31, 2016, the tangible net worth covenant would have limited our ability to pay dividends or repurchase stock with borrowed funds to a maximum of $81 million combined. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of March 31, 2016.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2015, the Company announced the execution of a commitment from First Tennessee Bank to provide up to $40 million dollars of mortgage backed financing in two separate facilities. On July 24, 2015 the Company closed on a five year, $20 million secured revolver with a twenty-four month window to convert up to the full amount of the facility into a ten year term loan. As of March 31, 2016, there was $629,000 outstanding on the revolver. The second facility is a $20 million ten year term loan secured by to-be-determined collateral from our current pool of unencumbered warehouse/office properties. The purpose of these loans is to facilitate growth through new construction in the Land Development and Construction segment and/or acquisition of existing, operating buildings to be added to the Asset Management segment.

During the three months ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015 the Company capitalized interest costs of $242,000 and $248,000, respectively. During the six months ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015 the Company capitalized interest costs of $464,000 and $569,000, respectively.

The fair values of the Company’s mortgage notes payable were estimated based on current rates available to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities. At March 31, 2016, the carrying amount and fair value of such long-term debt was $38,135,000 and $41,576,000, respectively.
