The credit facility has a seasonal component from October 1 to March 31, during which the borrowing capacity may be reduced to $400,000 at our discretion, and we effected this reduction in 2019.

We pay a variable commitment fee on the unused portion of the commitment under the revolving credit agreement, ranging from 7.5 to 20.0 basis-points ( 7.5 basis-points at December 31, 2019). During 2018 , we paid fees of $790 in connection with entering into the revolving credit agreement, which are being amortized ratably through the maturity of the facility in December 2023.
