Revolving Credit Facility and Term Loan Amendments
On May 26, 2021, we amended our Revolving Credit Facility and 2017 Term Loan Agreement. The Credit Facility Amendment primarily extended the maturity date by an additional two years to May 26, 2026 and adjusted the maximum leverage ratio. The Term Loan Amendment primarily adjusted the maximum leverage ratio financial covenant. See below for additional information on covenants. The borrowing capacity under the credit facility and term loan was not affected by the amendments and remains unchanged.

Deferred financing fees totaling $1.7 million associated with both amendments have been deferred and are being recognized to interest expense over the life of the agreements.

Covenants
Among other customary restrictions, our Revolving Credit Facility and 2017 Term Loan Facility contain financial covenants applicable to FMC and its consolidated subsidiaries related to leverage (measured as the ratio of debt to adjusted earnings) and interest coverage (measured as the ratio of adjusted earnings to interest expense). Our actual leverage for the four consecutive quarters ended September 30, 2021 was 3.05, which is below the maximum leverage of 3.75 at September 30, 2021. As amended pursuant to the Revolving Credit Agreement and the Term Loan Amendment discussed above, the maximum leverage ratio stepped down from 4.00 to 3.75 for the quarter ending June 30, 2021 and will step down further to 3.50 for the quarter ending December 31, 2021 and future quarters thereafter. Our actual interest coverage for the four consecutive quarters ended September 30, 2021 was 8.90, which is above the minimum interest coverage of 3.50. We were in compliance with all covenants at September 30, 2021.
