As of December 31, 2019, TETRA had $1.0 million outstanding balance and had $6.9 million in letters of credit against its ABL Credit Agreement (as defined below). As of December 31, 2019, subject to compliance with the covenants, borrowing base, and other provisions of the agreement that may limit borrowings, TETRA had an availability of $63.3 million under this agreement. Because the amount of associated deferred financing costs was in excess of the $1.0 million outstanding balance on this ABL Credit Agreement, associated deferred financing costs of $0.3 million as of December 31, 2019, were classified as other long-term assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2019, and subject to compliance with the covenants, borrowing base, and other provisions of the agreements that may limit borrowings under the CCLP Credit Agreement, CCLP had availability of $17.2 million.

As described below, TETRA and CCLP are both in compliance with all covenants of their respective credit and senior note agreements as of December 31, 2019.

TETRA Long-Term Debt

Asset-Based Credit Agreement. On September 10, 2018, TETRA, as borrower, and certain of its subsidiaries, entered into an asset-based lending credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of lenders, including JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (collectively, the "ABL Lenders"). The ABL Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured revolving credit facility of up to $100 million, subject to a borrowing base to be determined by reference to the value of inventory and accounts receivable, and includes a sublimit of $20.0 million for letters of credit and a swingline loan sublimit of $10.0 million.

Borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the option of TETRA, either (i) London Interbank Offering Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin based upon a fixed charge coverage ratio or (ii) a base rate plus a margin based on a fixed charge coverage ratio. The base rate is determined by reference to the highest of (a) the prime rate of interest as announced from time to time by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) plus 0.5% per annum and (c) LIBOR (adjusted to reflect any required bank reserves) for a one-month period on such day plus 1.0% per annum. Borrowings outstanding have an applicable margin ranging from 1.75% to 2.25% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.75% to 1.25% per annum for base-rate loans, based upon the applicable fixed charge coverage ratio. In addition to paying interest on the outstanding principal under the ABL Credit Agreement, TETRA is required to pay a commitment fee in respect of the unutilized commitments at an applicable rate ranging from 0.375% to 0.5% per annum, paid monthly in arrears based on utilization of the commitments under the ABL Credit Agreement. TETRA is also required to pay a customary letter of credit fee equal to the applicable margin on LIBOR-based loans and fronting fees.

The revolving loans under the ABL Credit Agreement may be voluntarily prepaid, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to applicable breakage fees. The maturity date of the ABL Credit Agreement is September 10, 2023.

The ABL Credit Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the ability of TETRA and certain of its subsidiaries to take certain actions including, among other things and subject to certain significant exceptions, incurring debt, granting liens, engaging in mergers and other fundamental changes, making investments, entering into or amending transactions with affiliates, paying dividends and making other restricted payments, prepaying other indebtedness, and selling assets. The ABL Credit Agreement also contains a provision that may require a fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.00 to 1.00 in the event that certain conditions associated with outstanding borrowings and cash availability occur. As of December 31, 2019, such conditions have not occurred. All obligations under the ABL Credit Agreement and the guarantees of those obligations are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by a security interest for the benefit of the ABL Lenders on substantially all of the personal property of TETRA and certain subsidiaries of TETRA, the equity interests in certain domestic subsidiaries, including CCLP, and a maximum of 65% of the equity interests in certain foreign subsidiaries.

The ABL Credit Agreement includes customary events of default including non-payment of principal, interest or fees, violation of covenants, inaccuracy of representations or warranties, cross-default to other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, invalidity or impairment of security interests or invalidity of loan documents, certain ERISA events, unsatisfied or unstayed judgments, and any change of control.

Proceeds of loans under the ABL Credit Agreement were used to pay certain debt of TETRA existing on the effective date of the ABL Credit Agreement and may be used for working capital needs, capital expenditures, and other general corporate purposes. The ABL Credit Agreement replaced TETRA's previous Bank Credit Agreement, as defined and discussed in further detail below. In connection with the execution of the ABL Credit Agreement, $1.3 million of financing costs were incurred, and deferred against the carrying value of the amount outstanding, if any.

Term Credit Agreement

On September 10, 2018, TETRA, as borrower, entered into a credit agreement (the “Term Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of lenders (collectively, the “Term Lenders”) and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as administrative agent. The Term Credit Agreement provided an initial loan in the amount of $200 million (the “Initial Term Loan”) and the availability of additional loans through September 10, 2019, subject to the terms of the Term Credit Agreement, up to an aggregate amount of $75 million for certain acquisitions (together with the Initial Term Loan, the “Term Loan”).

Borrowings under the Term Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the option of TETRA, either (i) LIBOR plus a margin of 6.25% per annum or (ii) a base rate plus a margin of 5.25% per annum. In addition to paying interest on the outstanding principal under the Term Credit Agreement, TETRA is required to pay a commitment fee in respect of the unutilized commitments at the rate of 1.0% per annum, paid quarterly in arrears based on utilization of the commitments under the Term Credit Agreement.

The Term Credit Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the ability of TETRA and certain of its subsidiaries to take certain actions including, among other things and subject to certain significant exceptions, incurring debt, granting liens, engaging in mergers and other fundamental changes, making investments, entering into or amending transactions with affiliates, paying dividends and making other restricted payments, prepaying other indebtedness, and selling assets. The Term Credit Agreement also contains a requirement that the borrowers comply at the end of each fiscal quarter with a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Term Credit Agreement) of 1.00 to 1.00. As of December 31, 2019, TETRA is in compliance with the Interest Coverage Ratio requirement.

All obligations under the Term Credit Agreement and the guarantees of those obligations are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by a security interest for the benefit of the Term Lenders on substantially all of the personal property of TETRA and certain of its subsidiaries, the equity interests in certain domestic subsidiaries, including CCLP, and a maximum of 65% of the equity interests in certain foreign subsidiaries.

The Term Credit Agreement includes customary events of default including non-payment of principal, interest or fees, violation of covenants, inaccuracy of representations or warranties, cross-default to other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, invalidity or impairment of security interests or invalidity of loan documents, certain ERISA events, unsatisfied or unstayed judgments and any change of control.

Proceeds from the Initial Term Loan, net of a 2% discount in the amount of $4.0 million, were used to prepay the outstanding indebtedness under the $125.0 million 11% Senior Secured Notes due November 5, 2022 (the “11% Senior Notes”) and indebtedness of TETRA under its then existing bank credit agreement. The loans under the Term Credit Agreement may be voluntarily prepaid, in whole or in part, subject to applicable breakage fees. Any prepayment prior to the one-year anniversary is subject to a “make-whole” payment as set forth in the Term Credit Agreement. Thereafter, any prepayment during the period commencing after the one-year anniversary and ending on the two-year anniversary will have a premium of 3.0% and during the period commencing after the two-year anniversary and ending on the three-year anniversary, a premium of 1.0%. The maturity date of the Term Loan is September 10, 2025. There is no prepayment premium required after the third anniversary. In connection with the issuance of the Term Credit Agreement, TETRA incurred $1.0 million of financing costs, $0.4 million of which was charged to other (income) expense, net during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and $0.6 million of lender fees were deferred against the carrying value of the amount outstanding. These deferred financing costs, along with the 2% discount, are amortized over the term of the Term Credit Agreement.

Bank Credit Agreement

On September 10, 2018, in connection with the closing of the above-described loans, TETRA repaid all outstanding borrowings and obligations under its then existing bank credit agreement dated as of January 27, 2006, as previously amended with a portion of the net proceeds from the above-described loans, and terminated the then existing bank credit agreement. As a result of the termination of the then existing bank credit agreement, during the three month period ended September 30, 2018, associated unamortized deferred financing costs of $0.5 million were charged to other (income) expense, net, and $0.4 million were deferred and will be amortized over the term of the ABL Credit Agreement. Certain ABL Lenders were lenders under the existing bank credit agreement and, accordingly, received a portion of the proceeds from the above-described loans in connection with the repayment of the outstanding borrowings under the bank credit agreement.

11% Senior Note

On September 10, 2018, in connection with the closing of the above-described loans, TETRA repaid all outstanding indebtedness under the 11% Senior Note with a portion of the proceeds from the above-described loans, terminated its obligations under the 11% Senior Note and related note purchase agreement. Affiliates of certain Term Lenders were holders of the 11% Senior Note and, accordingly, received a portion of the proceeds from the Term Credit Agreement in connection with the repayment of the outstanding indebtedness under the 11% Senior Note. In connection with the early termination of the 11% Senior Note, TETRA paid a $7.0 million "make-whole" prepayment fee in accordance with the terms of the 11% Senior Note. This prepayment fee, along with $3.4 million of unamortized discount and $2.9 million of unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the 11% Senior Note, has been deferred and is being amortized over the term of the new Term Credit Agreement.
    
CCLP Long-Term Debt

CCLP Bank Credit Facility.

On March 22, 2018, in connection with the closing of the CCLP Offering (as defined below), CCLP repaid all outstanding borrowings and obligations under its then existing CCLP Prior Credit Facility with a portion of the net proceeds from the CCLP Offering, and terminated the CCLP Prior Credit Facility. As a result of the termination of the CCLP Prior Credit Facility, associated unamortized deferred financing costs of $3.5 million were charged to other (income) expense, net, during the three month period ended March 31, 2018.

On June 29, 2018, CCLP and two of its wholly owned subsidiaries (collectively the "CCLP Borrowers"), and certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries named therein as guarantors (the "CCLP Credit Agreement Guarantors"), entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (the "CCLP Credit Agreement") with the lenders thereto (the "Lenders"), and Bank of America, N.A., in its capacity as administrative agent, collateral agent, letter of credit issuer, and swing line lender. All of the CCLP Borrowers' obligations under the CCLP Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of their existing and future domestic subsidiaries. The CCLP Credit Agreement includes a maximum credit commitment of $50.0 million which is available for loans, letters of credit with a sublimit of $25.0 million and swingline loans with a sublimit of $5.0 million, subject to a borrowing base to be determined by reference to the value of CCLP’s and any other borrowers’ accounts receivable. Such maximum credit commitment may be increased by $25.0 million in accordance with the terms and conditions of the CCLP Credit Agreement.

On June 26, 2019, CCLP entered into an amendment of the CCLP Credit Agreement that, among other things, revised and increased the borrowing base, including adding the value of certain inventory in the determination of the borrowing base.

The CCLP Borrowers may borrow funds under the CCLP Credit Agreement to pay fees and expenses related to the CCLP Credit Agreement and for the Borrower's ongoing working capital needs and for general business purposes. The revolving loans under the CCLP Credit Agreement may be voluntarily prepaid, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to breakage or similar costs. The maturity date of the CCLP Credit Agreement is June 29, 2023. As of December 31, 2019, $3.5 million balance was outstanding under the CCLP Credit Agreement.

Borrowings under the CCLP Credit Agreement will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the option of the CCLP Borrowers, either (i) the LIBOR plus a margin based on average daily excess availability or (ii) a base rate plus a margin based on average daily excess availability LIBOR-based loans will have an applicable margin of
2.00% per annum and base-rate loans will have an applicable margin of 1.00% per annum; thereafter, the applicable margin will range between 1.75% and 2.25% per annum for LIBOR-based loans and 0.75% and 1.25% per annum for base-rate loans, according to average daily excess availability when financial statements are delivered. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the CCLP Credit Agreement, the CCLP Borrowers are required to pay a commitment fee in respect of the unutilized commitments thereunder, initially at the rate of 0.375% per annum until the delivery of the financial statements for the fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2019 and thereafter at the applicable rate ranging from 0.250% to 0.375% per annum, paid quarterly in arrears based on utilization of the commitments under the CCLP Credit Agreement. The CCLP Borrowers are also required to pay a customary letter of credit fee equal to the applicable margin on revolving credit LIBOR loans and fronting fees.

The CCLP Credit Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the ability of the CCLP Borrowers, the CCLP Credit Agreement Guarantors and certain of their subsidiaries to take certain actions including, among other things and subject to certain significant exceptions, incurring debt, granting liens, making investments, entering into or amending transactions with affiliates, paying dividends and selling assets. The CCLP Credit Agreement also contains a provision that requires compliance with a fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined in the CCLP Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.0 to 1.0 in the event that certain conditions associated with outstanding borrowings and cash availability occur. As of December 31, 2019, such conditions have not occurred.
 
All obligations under the CCLP Credit Agreement and the guarantees of those obligations are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by a first priority security interest for the benefit of the Lenders in the CCLP Borrowers’ and the CCLP Credit Agreement Guarantors’ present and future accounts receivable, inventory and related assets and proceeds of the foregoing.

CCLP Senior Notes

The obligations under the CCLP 7.25% Senior Notes (the "CCLP Senior Notes") are jointly and severally and fully and unconditionally, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of CCLP’s domestic restricted subsidiaries (other than CSI Compressco Finance) that guarantee CCLP’s other indebtedness (the "Guarantors" and together with the Issuers, the "Obligors"). The CCLP Senior Notes and the subsidiary guarantees thereof (together, the "CCLP Senior Note Securities") were issued pursuant to an indenture described below. As of December 31, 2019, $295.9 million in aggregate principal amount of the 7.25% Senior Notes are outstanding.

The Obligors issued the CCLP Senior Note Securities pursuant to the Indenture dated as of August 4, 2014 (the "CCLP Senior Notes Indenture") by and among the Obligors and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"). The CCLP Senior Notes accrue interest at a rate of 7.25% per annum. Interest on the CCLP Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year. The CCLP Senior Notes are scheduled to mature on August 15, 2022.

The CCLP Senior Notes Indenture contains customary covenants restricting CCLP’s ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to: (i) pay dividends and make certain distributions, investments and other restricted payments; (ii) incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares; (iii) create certain liens; (iv) sell assets; (v) merge, consolidate, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets; (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates; and (vii) designate its subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries under the CCLP Senior Notes Indenture. The CCLP Senior Notes Indenture also contains customary events of default and acceleration provisions relating to such events of default, which provide that upon an event of default under the CCLP Senior Notes Indenture, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the CCLP Senior Notes then outstanding may declare all amounts owing under the CCLP Senior Notes to be due and payable. CCLP is in compliance with all covenants of the CCLP Senior Note Purchase Agreement as of December 31, 2019.

During September 2016 and October 2016, we repurchased on the open market and retired $54.1 million aggregate principal amount of 7.25% Senior Notes for a purchase price of $50.9 million, at an average repurchase price of 94% of the principal amount of the 7.25% Senior Notes, plus accrued interest, utilizing a portion of the net proceeds of the sale of the CCLP Preferred Units. Following the repurchase of these 7.25% Senior Notes, $295.9 million aggregate principal amount of 7.25% Senior Notes remain outstanding. In connection with the repurchase of these 7.25% Senior Notes, $1.4 million of early extinguishment net gain was credited to other (income) expense, net during the year ended December 31, 2016, representing the difference between the repurchase price and the
$54.1 million aggregate principal amount of the 7.25% Senior Notes repurchased, and $1.8 million of remaining unamortized deferred finance costs and discounts associated with the repurchased 7.25% Senior Notes.

CCLP Senior Secured Notes

On March 8, 2018, CCLP, and its wholly owned subsidiary, CSI Compressco Finance Inc. (together with CCLP, the "CCLP Issuers") entered into the Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated as representative of the initial purchasers listed in Schedule A thereto (collectively, the “Initial Purchasers”), pursuant to which the CCLP Issuers agreed to issue and sell to the Initial Purchasers $350 million aggregate principal amount of the CCLP Issuers’ 7.50% Senior Secured First Lien Notes due 2025 (the "CCLP Senior Secured Notes") (the "CCLP Offering") pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").

The CCLP Issuers closed the CCLP Offering on March 22, 2018. The CCLP Senior Secured Notes were issued at par for net proceeds of approximately $342.5 million, after deducting certain financing costs. CCLP used a portion of the net proceeds to repay in full and terminate its existing CCLP Prior Credit Facility and plans to use the remainder for general partnership purposes, including the expansion of its compression fleet. The obligations under the CCLP Senior Secured Notes are jointly and severally, and fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis by each of CCLP's domestic restricted subsidiaries (other than CSI Compressco Finance) that guarantee its indebtedness (the "CCLP Senior Secured Notes Guarantors" and together with CCLP and CSI Compressco Finance Inc, the "CCLP Senior Secured Notes Obligors"). The CCLP Senior Secured Notes and the subsidiary guarantees thereof (together, the "CCLP Senior Secured Notes Securities") were issued pursuant to an indenture described below. The CCLP Senior Secured Notes Securities are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of CCLP Senior Secured Notes Obligors' assets (other than certain excluded assets) (the "Collateral") as collateral security for their obligations under the CCLP Senior Secured Notes Securities, subject to certain permitted encumbrances and exceptions. On the closing date, CCLP entered into an indenture (the "CCLP Senior Secured Notes Indenture") by and among the Obligors and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee with respect to the Securities. The CCLP Senior Secured Notes accrue interest at a rate of 7.50% per annum. Interest on the CCLP Senior Secured Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning October 1, 2018. The CCLP Senior Secured Notes are scheduled to mature on April 1, 2025. During the year ended December 31, 2018, CCLP incurred total financing costs of $7.6 million related to the CCLP Senior Secured Notes. These costs are deferred, netting against the carrying value of the amount outstanding.

The CCLP Senior Secured Notes Indenture contains customary covenants restricting CCLP's ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to: (i) pay distributions on, purchase, or redeem CCLP common units or purchase or redeem any subordinated debt; (ii) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue certain kinds of preferred equity securities; (iii) create or incur certain liens securing indebtedness; (iv) sell assets, including dispositions of the Collateral; (v) consolidate, merge, or transfer all or substantially all of CCLP's assets; (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates; and (vii) enter into agreements that restrict distributions or other payments from CCLP's restricted subsidiaries to CCLP. These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions, including certain provisions permitting CCLP, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to transfer assets to certain of its unrestricted subsidiaries. Moreover, if the CCLP Senior Secured Notes receive an investment grade rating from at least two rating agencies and no default has occurred and is continuing under the CCLP Senior Secured Notes indenture, many of the restrictive covenants in the CCLP Senior Secured Notes Indenture will be terminated. The CCLP Senior Secured Notes Indenture also contains customary events of default and acceleration provisions relating to events of default, which provide that upon an event of default under the CCLP Senior Secured Notes Indenture, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding CCLP Senior Secured Notes may declare all of the CCLP Senior Secured Notes to be due and payable immediately. CCLP is in compliance with all covenants of the CCLP Senior Secured Notes Indenture as of December 31, 2019.

On and after April 1, 2021, CCLP may redeem all or a part of the CCLP Senior Secured Notes, from time to time, at the following redemption prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the applicable redemption date, subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on April 1 of the years indicated below:

In addition, at any time and from time to time before April 1, 2021, CCLP may, at its option, redeem all or a portion of the CCLP Senior Secured Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus the Applicable Premium (as defined in the CCLP Senior Secured Notes Indenture) with respect to the CCLP Senior Secured Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the applicable redemption date, subject to the rights of holders of the CCLP Senior Secured Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.

Prior to April 1, 2021, CCLP may on one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the principal amount of the CCLP Senior Secured Notes with an amount of cash not greater than the amount of the net cash proceeds from one or more equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 107.500% of the principal amount of the CCLP Senior Secured Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of redemption, subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date, provided that (a) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the CCLP Senior Secured Notes originally issued on the issue date (excluding notes held by CCLP and its subsidiaries) remains outstanding after each such redemption; and (b) the redemption occurs within 180 days after the date of the closing of the equity offering.
    
If CCLP experiences certain kinds of changes of control, each holder of the CCLP Senior Secured Notes will be entitled to require CCLP to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000) of that holder’s CCLP Senior Secured Notes pursuant to an offer on the terms set forth in the CCLP Senior Secured Notes Indenture. CCLP will offer to make a cash payment equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the CCLP Senior Secured Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the CCLP Senior Secured Notes repurchased to the date of repurchase, subject to the rights of holders of the CCLP Senior Secured Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.
