We have
a secured
$6.0
million revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association with an excess availability requirement of
$2.0
million resulting in maximum borrowings of
$4.0
million under the facility, subject to borrowing base eligibility requirements.  The credit facility matures in
October 2018
and is secured by our accounts receivable, inventory and certain other assets. Borrowings under the credit facility bear interest at a variable per annum rate equal to the daily
three
-month London Bank Interbank Offered Rate plus
3.5%.
 
The credit facility contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to incur certain types of debt or liens, pay dividends, enter into mergers and consolidations or use proceeds of borrowing for other than permitted uses.
  The credit facility also includes a covenant requiring us to maintain a minimum fixed charge ratio of
not
less than
1.1
to
1.0
measured annually on a trailing
twelve
months with an initial compliance date at
December 31, 2017.  
We obtained a waiver on
November 9, 2017
for compliance with this covenant as of
December 31, 2017
,
as long as the aggregate principal outstanding under the credit facility is
not
greater than
$250,000
on
December 31, 2017.
.
 
At
September 30, 2017,
and
December 31, 2016,
no
borrowings were outstanding under this revolving credit facility.
