5. Credit Facility and Convertible Debentures
Credit Facility
The Company's credit facility was with HPS Investment Partners, LLC (“Lender”), and was amended in May 2018 ("Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility had a scheduled maturity of May 11, 2020 and interest at a rate of either: (A) LIBOR plus 8.5% (subject to a LIBOR floor of 1%), payable on the last day of the one, two or three month interest period applicable to the LIBOR rate advance, or (B) 7.5% plus the greater of: the Federal Funds Rate plus LIBOR plus or the U.S. Prime Rate, payable monthly in arrears. The Credit Facility was secured by all of the Company's assets in accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility.
The terms of the Credit Facility included a requirement that if the aggregate amount of the Company’s qualified cash at any quarter end date exceeded $50.0 million, the Company would be required to prepay outstanding principal amounts under the Credit Facility, plus any applicable interest and prepayment fees, in an amount equal to such excess. Based on this requirement, the Company made a principal payment of $24.0 million and a make-whole interest payment of $2.9 million on April 15, 2019 based on the Company's qualified cash at March 31, 2019. Additionally, the Company repaid the remaining principal of $44.5 million and make-whole interest of $4.1 million in July 2019.
The Company was subject to certain debt covenants under the Credit Facility including maintaining a specified level of liquidity threshold, maintaining an appraised value of ownership interests, limiting deployments to our remaining ownership interests, limiting certain expenses, and restricting any repurchases of outstanding common stock or issuing dividends until such time as the Credit Facility was repaid in full. The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants.
The Credit Facility required prepayments of outstanding principal and interest amounts when the Company’s qualified cash at any quarter end date exceeded $50.0 million. This provision in the Credit Facility was an embedded derivative that was accounted for separately from the Credit Facility. A liability of $0.5 million was recorded on the 2018 amendment date for the fair value of potential future prepayments based upon management's probability weighted cash forecast. This amount was also included in debt issuance costs and had been amortized over the remaining term of the Credit Facility. The liability was adjusted to fair value at each balance sheet date based upon management's updated probability weighted cash forecast. During 2019, the Company recorded a decrease in the liability of $5.1 million, which is included in Other income (loss), net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The Company recorded interest expense under the Credit Facility of $14.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019. The effective interest rate on the Credit Facility was 15.1%. The Company made interest payments under the Credit Facility of $11.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2019.
