5.    Revolving Line of Credit

In October 2011, At Home Holding III Inc. (“At Home III”) and At Home Stores LLC (collectively, the “ABL Borrowers”), entered into an asset-based revolving line of credit (the “ABL Facility”), which originally provided for cash borrowings or issuances of letters of credit of up to $80.0 million based on defined percentages of eligible inventory and credit card receivable balances.

In June 2019, in connection with the agreement governing the ABL Facility (the “ABL Credit Agreement”), we entered into a letter agreement with certain of the Lenders party to the ABL Credit Agreement (the “Commitment Increase Letter Agreement”) pursuant to which such Lenders agreed to increase their respective commitments by $75.0 million in the aggregate, effective as of June 14, 2019 (the “ABL Commitment Increase”). Following the ABL Commitment Increase, the amount of aggregate commitments available under the ABL Credit Agreement is $425.0 million. The other terms of the ABL Facility were not changed by the Commitment Increase Letter Agreement.

We have amended the ABL Credit Agreement from time to time. After giving effect to such amendments and the ABL Commitment Increase, as of January 25, 2020, the amount of aggregate commitments available under the ABL Credit Agreement is $425.0 million, with a sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit of $50.0 million and a sublimit for the issuance of swingline loans of $20.0 million. In July 2017, in connection with the Seventh Amendment to the ABL Credit Agreement (the “ABL Amendment”), the maturity of the ABL Facility was extended to the earlier of July 27, 2022 and the date that is 91 days prior to the maturity date of the term loan entered into on June 5, 2015 under a first lien credit agreement (the “First Lien Agreement”) (as such date may be extended).

Interest on borrowings under our ABL Facility is computed based on our average daily availability, at our option, of: (x) the higher of (i) the Federal Funds Rate plus 1/2 of 1.00%, (ii) the agent bank's prime rate and (iii) LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus in each case, an applicable margin of 0.25% to 0.75% or (y) the agent bank's LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin of 1.25% to 1.75%. The effective interest rate was approximately 4.00%, 3.80% and 2.90% for the fiscal years ended January 25, 2020, January 26, 2019 and January 27, 2018, respectively.

As of January 25, 2020, approximately $235.7 million was outstanding under the ABL Facility, approximately $0.1 million in face amount of letters of credit had been issued and we had availability of approximately $150.7 million.

The ABL Facility includes restrictions customarily found in such agreements on the ability of the ABL Borrowers and the subsidiary guarantors to incur additional liens and indebtedness, make investments and dispositions,

pay dividends to At Home Holding II Inc. (“At Home II”) or enter into other transactions, among other restrictions, in each case subject to certain exceptions. Under the ABL Facility, the ABL Borrowers and the subsidiary guarantors are permitted to pay dividends to At Home II, (a) so long as after giving effect to such payment, (i) availability is equal to or greater than 15% of the loan cap (i.e., the lesser of (x) the aggregate lender commitments under the ABL Facility and (y) the borrowing base) and (ii) if availability is less than 20% of the loan cap, the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio is equal to or greater than 1.0 to 1.0, and (b) pursuant to certain other limited exceptions. As of January 25, 2020 and January 26, 2019, we were in compliance with all covenants prescribed in the ABL Facility.

The ABL Facility is secured by (a) a first priority lien on our (i) cash, cash equivalents, deposit accounts, accounts receivable, other receivables, tax refunds and inventory, (ii) to the extent relating to, arising from, evidencing or governing any of the items referred to in the preceding clause (i), chattel paper, documents, instruments, general intangibles, and securities accounts related thereto, (iii) books and records relating to the foregoing and (iv) supporting obligations and all products and proceeds of the foregoing and all collateral security and guarantees given by any person with respect to any of the foregoing, in each case subject to certain exceptions (collectively, “ABL Priority Collateral”) and (b) a second priority lien on our remaining assets not constituting ABL Priority Collateral, subject to certain exceptions (collectively, “Term Priority Collateral”); provided, however that since our amendment of the ABL Facility in July 2017, real property that may secure the Term Loan from time to time no longer forms part of the collateral under the ABL Facility.
