On June 26, 2014, the Company entered into a senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Unsecured Facility") with a bank to borrow up to $125.0 million, limited by borrowing base provisions and financial covenants. Any outstanding principal is due upon maturity, which was June 26, 2017, with the potential for a one-year extension of the term of the loan, subject to specified conditions and the payment of an extension fee. On May 7, 2015, the Company entered into a modification agreement to increase the total lending commitments under the Unsecured Facility from $125.0 million to $175.0 million. The maturity date was extended to April 30, 2018, with the potential for a one-year extension of the term of the loan, subject to specified conditions and the payment of an extension fee.
The Company may repay advances at any time without premium or penalty. Interest is payable monthly and is charged at a rate of 1-month LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 2.25% to 3.00% depending on the Company’s leverage ratio as calculated at the end of each fiscal quarter. As of June 30, 2015, the availability under the facility was $10.1 million and the interest rate was 2.69%. In connection with the agreement, the Company is required to maintain certain financial covenants, including (i) a minimum tangible net worth, as defined; (ii) leverage ratios, as defined; (iii) a minimum liquidity covenant; (iv) a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio based on EBITDA to interest incurred; and (v) from and after January 1, 2015, a speculative unit limitation. As of June 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants.
In 2012, the Company entered into a $9.5 million term loan with a land seller, secured by real estate, which bears interest at 7.0% per annum. During February 2015, we made a principal payment of $2.5 million and extended the maturity date of the note. The note matures on the earlier of (i) 10 days following entitlement approval, or (ii) February 15, 2016 and requires certain mandatory pay downs totaling $1.0 million based on the occurrence of certain project-related events. Interest is payable monthly and the remaining principal is due at maturity.
In May 2014, the Company entered into two construction loans with a bank related to model and production homes for a specific project. The loans are secured by real estate and bear interest at the bank's prime rate plus 2.0%, or 5.25% at June 30, 2015. The total commitment under the construction loans is $9.5 million. As of June 30, 2015, the Company had $6.4 million available to borrow under the construction loans. The loans mature on November 27, 2016. Interest is payable monthly with all unpaid principal and interest due at maturity.
In January 2015, the Company entered into two notes, secured by real estate, with one of its unconsolidated joint ventures for a total of $0.7 million related to the purchase of finished lots. There is no stated interest rate associated with the notes. Repayment of the notes shall be made in three equal installments. In April, the company paid the first and second installments on both notes for a total pay down of $0.5 million. The third installment will be payable on the sooner of specified project development milestones or on January 7, 2020.
