On September 30, 2021, OTC entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the OTC Credit Agreement) and OTP entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the OTP Credit Agreement) amending and restating the previously existing credit agreements to extend the maturity date of each agreement to September 30, 2026. The agreements both provide for $170 million revolving lines of credit to support operations, and borrowings which may be used for working capital needs and other capital requirements, to refinance certain indebtedness and for the issuance of letters of credit in an aggregate not to exceed $40 million for the OTC Credit Agreement and $50 million for the OTP Credit Agreement. Each credit facility includes an accordion provision allowing the borrower to increase the available borrowing capacity, subject to certain terms and conditions. The borrowing capacity of the OTC Credit Agreement can be increased to $290 million and the OTP Credit Agreement can be increased to $250 million. Borrowings under each credit facility are subject to a variable rate of interest on outstanding balances and a commitment fee is applied based on the average unused amount available to be drawn under the respective facility. The variable rate of interest to be charged is based on either LIBOR or a Base Rate, as defined in the agreement, selected by the borrower at the time of an advance, subject to the conditions of each agreement, plus an applicable credit spread. The credit spread ranges from 0.125% to 2.00% for the OTC Credit Agreement and from zero to 1.75% for the OTP Credit Agreement, depending on the benchmark interest rate selected and is subject to adjustment based on the credit ratings of the borrower. As of September 30, 2021, the weighted-average LIBOR Rate based interest rate was 1.59% and 1.33% under the OTC Credit Agreement and OTP Credit Agreement, respectively. Each credit facility contains a number of restrictions on the borrower, including restrictions on their ability to merge, sell assets, make investments, create or incur liens on assets, guarantee the obligations of any other party and engage in transactions with related parties. The agreements also contain certain financial and non-financial covenants and defined events of default, and include provisions for the replacement of the LIBOR benchmark rate in the event that LIBOR is no longer available.
