Line of credit

In September 2015, we entered into a two-year unsecured line of credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”) in the principal amount of up to $12.0 million. In September 2016, the Credit Agreement was modified to extend the final due date an additional year to September 22, 2018. At our election, advances under the Credit Agreement shall bear interest at either (1) a rate per annum equal to 1.5% below the bank’s applicable prime rate or (2) 1.5% above the Bank’s applicable LIBOR rate, in each case as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including compliance with financial ratios and metrics, as well as limitations on our ability to pay distributions or dividends while there is an ongoing event of default or to the extent such distribution causes an event of default. We are required to maintain certain minimum interest coverage ratios, liquidity levels and asset coverage ratios as defined in the Credit Agreement. We were in compliance with all such covenants as of December 31, 2017. At December 31, 2017, the required interest coverage ratio would not permit us to borrow under the Credit Agreement.

There were no amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2017 or 2016. In September 2016, we entered into a letter of credit agreement for $250,000 secured by the Credit Agreement in connection with the lease of our corporate headquarters. Accordingly, the maximum principal amount available if we were eligible to borrow under the Credit Agreement has been reduced to $11.75 million.
