Senior Credit Facility
On December 20, 2019 (the "Closing Date"), the Company amended and restated its Credit Agreement (the "A&R Credit Agreement"), dated December 7, 2016, as amended on December 20, 2018, with Bank of America, N.A. ("Bank of America"), as administrative agent, swingline lender and letter of credit issuer, the other lenders party thereto, and certain of the Company's subsidiaries as guarantors. Pursuant to the A&R Credit Agreement, the lenders provided term commitments of
$150.0 million in the aggregate in a single draw on the Closing Date to fund the acquisition of QSI and various costs and expenses relating thereto and revolving commitments totaling $215.0 million in the aggregate. The revolving commitment is available through December 20, 2024 (the "Maturity Date"), at which time the term commitments and revolving commitments will be due and payable in full. An aggregate amount of $320.5 million was drawn under the A&R Credit Agreement on the closing date to fund the QSI acquisition and repay previously existing borrowings. The Senior Credit Facility is secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company. The A&R Credit Agreement also includes an accordion feature permitting the Company to request an increase in either the term facility or the revolver facility under the A&R Credit Agreement by an additional amount of up to $100.0 million in the aggregate.
Borrowings under the term facility amortize at the rate of 5.0% per annum for the first two years of the facility and thereafter at the rate of 7.5% per annum until the Maturity Date.
Borrowings under the A&R Credit Agreement bear interest at variable rates described below, which are, at our option, tied to a Eurocurrency rate equal to LIBOR (London Interbank Offered Rate) plus an applicable margin or a base rate denominated in U.S. dollars. Interest rates are subject to change based on our consolidated leverage ratio. The consolidated leverage ratio is the ratio of our pro forma consolidated funded indebtedness to our pro forma consolidated EBITDA for the most recently completed measurement period.
The A&R Credit Agreement contains covenants that may have the effect of limiting the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, merge with or acquire other entities, enter into a transaction resulting in a Change in Control, create certain new liens, incur certain additional indebtedness, engage in certain transactions with affiliates, or engage in new lines of business or sell a substantial part of their assets. The A&R Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants that requires us to maintain a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 1.20 to 1.00 as of the end of any measurement period. In addition, we are required to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio as described below:
Measurement Period Ending
Maximum Consolidated Leverage Ratio
Closing Date through June 30, 2020
4.25 to 1.00
July 1, 2020 through September 30, 2020
4.00 to 1.00
October 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020
3.75 to 1.00
January 1, 2021 and thereafter
3.50 to 1.00

As of December 28, 2019, we were in compliance with the financial covenants.
The A&R Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, including (but not limited to) a default in the payment of principal or, following an applicable grace period, interest, breaches of the our covenants or warranties under the A&R Credit Agreement, payment default or acceleration of certain indebtedness of the Company or any subsidiary, certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation involving the Company or any subsidiaries, certain judgments or uninsured losses, changes in control and certain liabilities related to ERISA based plans.
The A&R Credit Agreement limits the payment of cash dividends (together with certain other payments that would constitute a "Restricted Payment" within the meaning of the A&R Credit Agreement and generally including dividends, stock repurchases and certain other payments in respect to warrants, options, and other rights to acquire equity securities) to no more than $10,000 in any fiscal year, so long as no default shall exist at the time of or arise as a result from such payment.
Total debt issuance costs incurred and capitalized in connection with the issuance of the A&R Credit Agreement were $3,676. Total amortization of debt issuance costs was $131 during 2019.
