Summary of other contractual obligations related to bank debt and interest | Contractual obligations related to bank debt and interest are as follows:
In $000s |  | Total |  |  | Less than one year |  |  | 1-3 years |
Bank debt 1 |  | $ | 497,500 |  |  | $ | - |  |  | $ | 497,500 |
Interest 2 |  |  | 93,450 |  |  |  | 37,116 |  |  |  | 56,334 |
|  | $ | 590,950 |  |  | $ | 37,116 |  |  | $ | 553,834 |
1 | As at December 31, 2022, the Company had $497.5 million drawn and outstanding on the Revolving Facility. The repayment date in the table above reflects the full term of the facility which matures on October 6, 2025, assuming no extension periods.
2 | The amounts drawn on the Revolving Facility are subject to an interest rate of SOFR plus 1.875%–3.5% per annum, and the undrawn portion of the Revolving Facility is subject to a standby fee of 0.4219% - 0.7875% per annum, both of which are dependent on the terms of the Revolving Facility and the Company’s leverage ratio. The interest charges have been estimated based on assumptions of the Company’s future leverage ratio. The Revolving Facility incorporates sustainability-linked incentive pricing terms that allow the Company to reduce the borrowing costs from the interest rates described above as the Company’s ESG targets are met. The interest charges have been estimated based on the assumption that the Company will continue with the same pricing adjustment to the debt maturity date. As the applicable interest rate is floating in nature, the interest charges are estimated based on market forward interest rate curves at the ending of the reporting period combined with the assumption that the principal balance outstanding at December 31, 2022, does not change until the debt maturity date.
