Credit Facility

In July 2018, we entered into a $250 million senior secured revolving credit facility which has a term ending on February 7, 2023. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, no amounts were outstanding under the facility.

We are also able to obtain letters of credit under the facility, and for any such letters we are required to pay a participation fee of between 2.25% and 4.00% of the amount of the letters of credit based on our total leverage ratio, as well as a fronting fee to each issuing bank of 0.20% annually on the average daily dollar amount of any outstanding letters of credit. There were $19.9 million in letters of credit outstanding as of June 30, 2021.

We believe we were in compliance with all covenants under the credit agreement as of June 30, 2021.
