As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $475.0 million outstanding under a bank credit facility with a $1.4 billion committed borrowing base which is re-determined on a semi-annual basis and upon the occurrence of certain other events and matures on July 16, 2024. Borrowings under the bank credit facility are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries and bear interest at the Company's option, at either LIBOR plus 2.25% to 3.25% or a base rate plus 1.25% to 2.25%, in each case depending on the utilization of the borrowing base. The Company also pays a commitment fee of 0.375% to 0.5% on the unused portion of the borrowing base. The bank credit facility places certain restrictions upon the Company's and its subsidiaries' ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, pay cash dividends, repurchase common stock, make certain loans, investments and divestitures and redeem the senior notes. The only financial covenants are the maintenance of a leverage ratio of less than 4.0 to 1.0 and an adjusted current ratio of at least 1.0 to 1.0. The Company was in compliance with the covenants as of June 30, 2021. On March 4, 2021, the Company issued $1.25 billion principal amount of its 6.75% senior notes due 2029 ("the 2029 Notes") in a private placement and received net proceeds after offering costs of $1.24 billion, which were used to repurchase a portion of the Company's 7.5% senior notes due 2025 and 9.75% senior notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") pursuant to a tender offer. The 2029 Notes mature on March 1, 2029 and accrue interest at a rate of 6.75% per annum, payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each year. Pursuant to the tender offer, Comstock repurchased $375.0 million principal amount of its 7.5% senior notes due 2025 and $777.1 million principal amount of the 2026 Notes for an aggregate amount of $1.26 billion, which included premiums paid over face value of $97.9 million, accrued interest of $12.5 million and $1.1 million of costs related to the tender offer. On June 28, 2021, the Company issued $965.0 million principal amount of its 5.875% senior notes due 2030 (the "2030 Notes") in a private placement and received net proceeds after offering costs of $949.5 million, which were used along with cash on hand to redeem all outstanding 2026 Notes. The 2030 Notes mature on January 15, 2030 and accrue interest at a rate of 5.875% per annum, payable semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year. On June 29, 2021, Comstock completed the redemption of all outstanding 2026 Notes for an aggregate amount of $978.6 million, which included premiums paid over face value of $74.0 million and accrued interest of $31.7 million. As a result of the early retirement of the senior notes repurchased in the tender offer and the redemption of the 2026 Notes, the Company recognized a loss of $114.1 million and $352.6 million on early retirement of debt for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.
