2021 Credit Facility

Effective July 30, 2021, we entered into a new $500 million credit facility (the “2021 Credit Facility”). The 2021 Credit Facility provides for a $400 million Term Loan B with a maturity date of July 30, 2028 and a $100 million revolving credit facility with a maturity date of July 30, 2026. The proceeds will be used to provide for financial flexibility to fund future acquisitions and growth initiatives and for general corporate purposes.

On March 23, 2022, we entered into an amendment to the 2021 Credit Facility, which modified the revolving credit facility’s financial covenants as detailed below.

Term Loan B

The $400 million Term Loan B proceeds were offset in part by $14.8 million in related fees. The proceeds from the Term Loan B were used to repay the $327 million outstanding balance under our then outstanding $450 million revolving credit facility. The interest rate on the Term Loan B is London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 5.00%, with a LIBOR floor of 0.50%. There are no financial covenants under the Term Loan B.

Revolving Credit Facility

The following are significant terms under the revolving credit facility, as amended:

Maintain minimum liquidity of $75 million until the compliance certificate and financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 are received by the administrative agent, with liquidity defined as unrestricted cash and available capacity on our revolving credit facility;
Financial covenants will first be tested as of September 30, 2022 as described below:
o
Maintain a total net leverage ratio of not greater than 5.25 to 1.00 at September 30, 2022 with a step-down to 4.75 to 1.00 at December 31, 2022, 4.50 to 1.00 at March 31, 2023, and 4.00 to 1.00 at June 30, 2023 and thereafter; and
o
Maintain an interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.00 to 1.00 at September 30, 2022, with a step-up to 2.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2022 and thereafter.
Interest rate during minimum liquidity period is LIBOR plus 3.50% and a 0.50% commitment fee; and
Interest rates during the leverage test period are based on the net leverage ratio and range from LIBOR plus 2.50% with an undrawn fee of 0.30% to LIBOR plus 3.50% with an undrawn fee of 0.50%.

On April 6, 2022, we borrowed $15.0 million from the revolving credit facility to partially fund the Glacier Raft Company acquisition. Refer to Note 4 – Acquisitions for additional information.

As of June 30, 2022, capacity remaining under the Revolving Credit Facility was $72.3 million, reflecting $100.0 million total facility size, less $15.0 million of borrowings and $12.7 million in outstanding letters of credit.

Forest Park Hotel Construction Loan Facility

Effective May 17, 2022, Pursuit, through a 60% owned subsidiary, entered into a construction loan facility for borrowings up to $17.0 million Canadian dollars (approximately $13.3 million U.S. dollars) for the development and construction of the Forest Park Hotel in Jasper National Park. The construction loan facility requires interest only payments through November 2023 at Canada Prime plus 2.35% per annum. After November 2023, the construction loan will be converted to a term loan and the interest rate will be at Canada Prime plus 1.50% per annum. The construction loan facility matures on May 17, 2027. As of June 30, 2022, funds of $5.9 million Canadian dollars (approximately $4.6 million U.S. dollars) were available. Construction of the Forest Park Hotel is expected to be completed in August 2022.

FlyOver Iceland Credit Facility

Effective February 15, 2019, FlyOver Iceland ehf., (“FlyOver Iceland”) a wholly-owned subsidiary of Esja, entered into a credit agreement with a €5.0 million (approximately $5.6 million U.S. dollars) credit facility (the “FlyOver Iceland Credit Facility”) with a maturity date of March 1, 2022. The loan proceeds were used to complete the development of the FlyOver Iceland attraction.

We entered into an addendum effective December 1, 2021 wherein the principal payments were deferred for twelve months beginning December 1, 2021, with the first payment due December 1, 2022. The addendum extended the maturity date to March 1, 2025 and provided for a semi-annual waiver of certain covenants through June 30, 2022 with the first testing date as of December 31, 2022. Conditions to the addendum included securing additional capital of ISK 75.0 million (approximately $0.6 million) in January 2022, which was completed, in order to strengthen FlyOver Iceland’s liquidity position. There were no other changes to the terms of the FlyOver Iceland Credit Facility.

FlyOver Iceland Term Loans

During 2020, FlyOver Iceland entered into three term loans totaling ISK 90.0 million (approximately $0.7 million U.S. dollars) (the “FlyOver Iceland Term Loans”). The first term loan for ISK 10.0 million was entered into effective October 15, 2020 with a maturity date of April 1, 2023 and bears interest on a seven-day term deposit at the Central Bank of Iceland. The second term loan for ISK 30.0 million was entered into effective October 15, 2020 with a maturity date of October 1, 2024 and bears interest on a seven-day term deposit at the Central Bank of Iceland plus 3.07%. The third term loan for ISK 50.0 million was entered into effective December 29, 2020 with a maturity date of February 1, 2023 and bears interest at one-month Reykjavik InterBank Offered Rate (“REIBOR”) plus 4.99%. The Icelandic State Treasury guarantees supplemental loans provided by credit institutions to companies impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Accordingly, the Icelandic State Treasury guaranteed the repayment of up to 85% of the principal and interest on the ISK 10.0 million and ISK 30.0 million term loans and 70% of the principal amount on the ISK 50.0 million term loan. Loan proceeds were used to fund FlyOver Iceland operations.

Financing arrangements

We have insurance premium financing arrangements in order to finance certain of our insurance premium payments. The financing arrangements are payable within the next 12 months and bear a weighted average interest rate of 2.7%.
