On April 12, 2019, the Company, through the Operating Partnership, entered into a restated credit agreement (the “Amended Credit Agreement”) with a group of lenders, amending and restating the terms of the Company’s previous $300 million revolving credit facility (the “2018 Credit Facility”) to increase the maximum aggregate initial original principal amount of revolving loans available thereunder up to $400.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and to permit the incurrence of an additional $200.0 million in term loans thereunder (the “April 2019 Term Loan”).
The Revolving Credit Facility has a term of four years from April 12, 2019, with an extension option of up to one year exercisable by the Operating Partnership, subject to certain conditions, and the April 2019 Term Loan has a term of five years from the effective date of the amended agreement. The loans under each of the Revolving Credit Facility and the April 2019 Term Loan initially bear interest at an annual rate of applicable LIBOR plus the applicable margin (which applicable margin varies between the Revolving Credit Facility and the April 2019 Term Loan). The applicable LIBOR is the rate with a term equivalent to the interest period applicable to the relevant borrowing. The applicable margin initially is a spread set according to a leverage-based pricing grid. At the
Operating Partnership’s election, on and after receipt of an investment grade corporate credit rating from Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) or Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”), the applicable margin will be a spread set according to the Company’s corporate credit ratings provided by S&P and/or Moody’s. The Revolving Credit Facility and the April 2019 Term Loan are freely pre-payable at any time and the Revolving Credit Facility is mandatorily payable if borrowings exceed the borrowing base or the facility limit. The Operating Partnership may re-borrow amounts paid down on the Revolving Credit Facility but not on the April 2019 Term Loan. The Operating Partnership is required to pay revolving credit fees throughout the term of the Revolving Credit Agreement based upon its usage of the Revolving Credit Facility, at a rate which depends on its usage of such facility during the period before the Company receives an investment grade corporate credit rating from S&P or Moody’s, and which rate shall be based on the corporate credit rating from S&P and/or Moody’s after the time, if applicable, the Company receives such a rating. The Operating Partnership was required to pay a ticking fee on the April 2019 Term Loan for the period from April 12, 2019 through May 14, 2019, the date the term loans were drawn. The Amended Credit Agreement has an accordion feature to increase, subject to certain conditions, the maximum availability of credit (either through increased revolving commitments or additional term loans) by up to $200 million.
Additionally, on November 22, 2019, the Company further amended the Amended Credit Agreement to update certain terms to be consistent with those as described under, and to acknowledge, where applicable, the November 2019 Term Loan (as defined below) and to make certain other changes to the Amended Credit Agreement consistent with market practice on future replacement of the LIBOR rate and qualified financial contracts.
The Operating Partnership is the borrower under the Amended Credit Agreement, and the Company and each of its subsidiaries that owns a direct or indirect interest in an eligible real property asset are guarantors under the Amended Credit Agreement.
Under the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company is subject to various restrictive financial and nonfinancial covenants which, among other things, require the Company to maintain certain leverage ratios, cash flow and debt service coverage ratios, secured borrowing ratios and a minimum level of tangible net worth.
The Amended Credit Agreement restricts the Company’s ability to pay distributions to its stockholders under certain circumstances. However, the Company may make distributions to the extent necessary to maintain its qualification as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Amended Credit Agreement contains certain additional covenants that, subject to exceptions, limit or restrict the Company’s incurrence of indebtedness and liens, disposition of assets, transactions with affiliates, mergers and fundamental changes, modification of organizational documents, changes to fiscal periods, making of investments, negative pledge clauses and lines of business and REIT qualification.
The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants and was not in default of any other provisions under the Amended Credit Facility as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

The Company had outstanding borrowings of $430.0 million at June 30, 2020 and $250.0 million at December 31, 2019 under the November 2019 Term Loan.

At the operating Partnership’s irrevocable election, on and after receipt of an investment grade corporate credit rating from S&P or Moody’s, the applicable margin will be a spread set according to the Company’s corporate credit ratings provided by S&P and/or Moody’s.

Additionally, the November 2019 Term Loan restricts the Company’s ability to pay distributions to its stockholders under certain circumstances. However, the Company may make distributions to the extent necessary to maintain its qualification as a REIT under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The facility contains certain covenants that, subject to exceptions, limit or restrict the Company’s incurrence of indebtedness and liens, disposition of assets, transactions with affiliates, mergers and fundamental changes, modification of organizational documents, changes to fiscal periods, making of investments, negative pledge clauses and lines of business and REIT qualification.
