On August 18, 2015, we entered into a new credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., The Huntington National Bank, Citizens Bank, National Association and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC. In connection with the execution of the Credit Facility, the credit agreement in place at June 30, 2015 (the “Old Credit Agreement”) was terminated, and all outstanding amounts were paid in full. The Credit Facility consists of a $
100
million five-year revolving facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and originally matured on
August 18, 2020
. On June 27, 2018, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to its Credit Facility, dated August 18, 2015, which had previously been amended on September 1, 2017, extending the revolving credit maturity date under the Credit Agreement for five years after the date of the amendment to June 27, 2023.
 
We have pledged substantially all of our assets (excluding our FCC licenses and certain other assets) in support of the Credit Facility and each of our subsidiaries has guaranteed the Credit Facility and has pledged substantially all of their assets (excluding their FCC licenses and certain other assets) in support of the Credit Facility.
 
 Approximately $
266,000
of debt issuance costs related to the Credit Facility were capitalized and are being amortized over the life of the Credit Facility. These debt issuance costs are included in other assets, net in the consolidated balance sheets. As a result of the Second Amendment, the Company incurred an additional $120,000 of transaction fees related to the Credit Facility that were capitalized. The cumulative transaction fees are being amortized over the remaining life of the Credit Facility.
 
Interest rates under the Credit Facility are payable, at our option, at alternatives equal to LIBOR
(
2.5
% at March 31, 2019), plus
1
% to
2
% or the base rate plus
0
% to
1
%. The spread over LIBOR and the base rate vary from time to time, depending upon our financial leverage. Letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility will be subject to a participation fee (which is equal to the interest rate applicable to Eurocurrency Loans, as defined in the Credit Agreement) payable to each of the Lenders and a fronting fee equal to
0.25
% per annum payable to the issuing bank. We also pay quarterly commitment fees of
0.2
% to
0.3
% per annum on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility.
 
 The Credit Facility contains a number of financial covenants (all of which we were in compliance with at March 31, 2019) which, among other things, require us to maintain specified financial ratios and impose certain limitations on us with respect to investments, additional indebtedness, dividends, distributions, guarantees, liens and encumbrances.
 
We had approximately $
85
million of unused borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility at March 31, 2019.
 
On February 4, 2019, we used $
5,000,000
from funds generated by operations to voluntarily pay down a portion of our Revolving Credit Facility which is presented in current portion of long-term debt on our balance sheet at December 31, 2018.
 
On September 4, 2018, we used $
5,000,000
from funds generated by operations to pay down a portion of our Revolving Credit Facility.
