The Bank of New York Mellon agrees to make revolving intraday credit advances (“Intraday Credit Facility”) for an aggregate committed amount of $250.0 million. The Intraday Credit Facility contains a financial covenant, which includes a minimum regulatory net capital requirement. Interest is based on the higher of the Federal funds effective rate plus 0.5% or the prime rate. At March 31, 2017, Jefferies was in compliance with debt covenants under the Intraday Credit Facility.

In October 2015, Jefferies entered into a secured revolving loan facility (“First Secured Revolving Loan Facility”) whereby the lender agreed to make available a revolving loan facility in a maximum principal amount of $50.0 million to purchase eligible receivables that met certain requirements as defined in the First Secured Revolving Loan Facility agreement. Interest was based on an annual rate equal to the lesser of the LIBOR rate plus 3.75% or the maximum rate as defined in the First Secured Revolving Loan Facility agreement. In December 2015, Jefferies entered into a second secured revolving loan facility (“Second Secured Revolving Loan Facility”) whereby the lender agreed to make available a revolving loan facility in a maximum principal amount of $50.0 million to purchase eligible receivables that met certain requirements as defined in the Second Secured Revolving Loan Facility agreement. Interest was based on an annual rate equal to the lesser of the LIBOR rate plus 4.25% or the maximum rate as defined in the Second Secured Revolving Loan Facility agreement. The First Secured Revolving Loan Facility was terminated with an effective date of December 6, 2016. The Second Secured Revolving Loan Facility was terminated with an effective date of January 24, 2017.
