Credit Agreement
In conjunction with our acquisition of HHI in January 2016, we entered into a syndicated credit agreement with Regions Bank ("Regions") serving as administrative agent, which provided for a $125 million term loan facility and a $50 million revolving credit facility. On June 16, 2020, we entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement that increased the aggregate principal amount of our credit facilities to $185 million, which included a $75 million term loan facility and a $110 million revolving credit facility. On May 2, 2022, we entered into a First Amendment (the "First Amendment") to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, that increased the aggregate principal amount of our credit facilities to $230 million , which included a $70 million term loan facility and a $160 million revolving credit facility. In addition, the interest rate provisions of the First Amendment reflect the transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") as the new benchmark interest rate for each loan.
Each of our credit facilities continues to bear interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin plus, at our option, either (1) the Adjusted SOFR rate for the relevant interest period, subject to a floor of 0.50%, (2) an alternate base rate determined by reference to the greater of (a) the prime lending rate of Regions, (b) the federal funds rate for the relevant interest period plus one half of one percent per annum and (c) the one month SOFR rate, subject to the aforementioned floor, plus one percent per annum, or (3) a combination of (1) and (2). The applicable margin for SOFR loans and the letter of credit fee ranges from 1.8% to 3.0%. The applicable margin for base rate loans ranges from 0.8% to 2.0%, in each case based on the Company's consolidated net leverage ratio.
Principal payments with respect to the term loan facility are due on the last day of each fiscal quarter beginning June 30, 2022, with quarterly principal payments of approximately $0.9 million through March 31, 2027, with maturity on May 2, 2027 or such earlier date as the obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement become due and payable pursuant to the terms of such agreement. Any principal outstanding under the revolving credit facility is due and payable on the maturity date.
Anticipated annual future maturities of the term loan facility and revolving credit facility are as follows as of December 31, 2022:
(In thousands)
2023$3,500 
20243,500 
20253,500 
20263,500

Our credit facilities are secured pursuant to an Amended and Restated Pledge and Security Agreement, dated June 16, 2020, among the parties identified as obligors therein and Regions, as collateral agent, on a first priority basis by a security interest in substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets (subject to certain exceptions) of the Company and certain subsidiaries of the Company, as guarantors (collectively, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), including certain registered intellectual property and the capital stock of certain of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries. Our obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are also guaranteed by the Subsidiary Guarantors.
The First Amendment provides incremental facility capacity of $75 million, subject to certain conditions. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as amended by the First Amendment, includes a number of restrictive covenants that, among other things and in each case subject to certain exceptions and baskets, impose operating and financial restrictions on the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, including the ability to incur additional debt; incur liens and encumbrances; make certain restricted payments, including paying dividends on the Company's equity securities or payments to redeem, repurchase or retire the Company's equity securities (which are subject to our compliance, on a pro forma basis to give effect to the restricted payment, with the fixed charge coverage ratio and consolidated net leverage ratio described below); enter into certain restrictive agreements; make investments, loans and acquisitions; merge or consolidate with any other person; dispose of assets; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; engage in transactions with affiliates; and materially alter the business we conduct. The First Amendment requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25:1.00 throughout the duration of such agreement. Under the First Amendment, the Company is required to comply with a maximum consolidated net leverage ratio of 3.75:100 for each quarter through March 31, 2023, after which time the maximum consolidated net leverage ratio will be 3.50:1.00. Further, under the First Amendment, in connection with any acquisition by the Company exceeding $25 million, the Company may elect to increase the maximum permitted consolidated net leverage ratio for the fiscal quarter in which the acquisition occurs and each of the following three fiscal quarters by 0.50:1.00 above the otherwise permitted maximum. If the consolidated net leverage ratio is less than 2.50:1:00, there is no limit on the amount of incremental facilities. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as amended also contains customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default. We believe that we were in compliance with the covenants contained in the credit agreement as of December 31, 2022. On March 9, 2023, the calculation of the fixed charge coverage ratio was amended to specifically exclude from the definition of fixed charges the Company's share repurchases conducted during the third and fourth quarters of 2022. Any failure by us to comply with this or another covenant in the future may result in an event of default. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to comply with this covenant or obtain amendments to avoid future covenant violations, or that such amendments will be available on commercially acceptable terms.
The First Amendment removed the requirement that the Company mandatorily prepay the credit facilities with excess cash flow generated during the previous fiscal year. The Company is permitted to voluntarily prepay our credit facilities at any time without penalty, subject to customary “breakage” costs with respect to prepayments of SOFR rate loans made on a day other than the last day of any applicable interest period.
