– Long-Term Debt
 
On
January 25, 2019,
we amended and increased our senior secured revolving credit facility. The amended facility is now a
$350.0
million revolving operating credit facility to be available for general corporate purposes, including the financing of ongoing working capital needs and acquisitions. With the approval of the lenders, the credit facility can be expanded to a total of
$500.0
million. The credit facility has a
five
-year maturity with
no
fixed repayment dates prior to the end of the
five
-year term ending
January 2024.
Borrowings under the credit facility are secured by a
first
charge over substantially all of Descartes' assets. Depending on the type of advance, interest rates under the revolving operating portion of the credit facility are based on the Canada or US prime rate, Bankers' Acceptance (BA) or London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an additional
0
to
250
basis points based on the ratio of net debt to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as defined in the credit agreement. A standby fee of between
20
to
40
basis points will be charged on all undrawn amounts. The credit facility contains certain customary representations, warranties and guarantees, and covenants.
 
No
amounts were drawn on the credit facility as of
January 31, 2021
and the balance of
$350.0
million is available for use. We were in compliance with the covenants of the credit facility as of
January 31, 2021.
 
As at
January 31, 2021,
we had outstanding letters of credit of approximately
$0.2
million (
$0.2
million as at
January 31, 2020),
which were
not
related to our credit facility.
