On August 8, 2024, the Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, AvidXchange, Inc. and AFV Commerce, Inc. (the "Borrowers"), entered into a credit agreement (the "2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement") with KeyBank National Association ("KeyBank") to amend and restate in its entirety its previous senior secured credit facility (as amended, the "2022 Credit Agreement"), dated as of December 29, 2022. The Company repaid all amounts outstanding under the term loan facility under the 2022 Credit Agreement upon closing the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement has a term of five years and consists of a $150,000 5-year revolving credit facility (the "2024 Revolver").

Under the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and subject to specific conditions, the Company may request, and the lenders have the right, but not the obligation, to increase the 2024 Revolver or add a term loan facility by an additional amount (for all such increases) not to exceed $150,000, for a total aggregate amount of $300,000. The 2024 Revolver may be used for working capital, for refinancing existing indebtedness, and for other general corporate purposes.

Letters of credit may be issued by KeyBank pursuant to the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement in an aggregate face amount up to $30,000 and the availability under the 2024 Revolver will be reduced by any outstanding letters of credit. As of September 30, 2024, no letters of credit were outstanding.

The maturity date for the 2024 Revolver is August 8, 2029. Interest only payments are required during the term, with the outstanding principal balance due in full upon maturity. Interest is payable quarterly. The Company may voluntarily pre-pay all or any part of the 2024 Revolver along with accrued interest and any applicable breakage costs, without premium or penalty.

Interest on the loans under the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement is equal to the daily simple secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR"), term SOFR or a base rate, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is between 2.0% and 2.5% for daily simple SOFR and term SOFR loans (plus a SOFR adjustment of 0.1%), and between 1.0% and 1.5% for base rate loans. The applicable margin fluctuates based on a leverage ratio that reflects the Company's consolidated funded indebtedness to the Company's consolidated EBITDA. The Company may elect one-, three- or six-month interest periods in connection with term SOFR. The base rate is equal to the higher of KeyBank’s prime rate, the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5%, or one-month term SOFR plus 1.0%. For purposes of the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, daily simple SOFR, term SOFR and the base rate will never be less than 0.5%.

The 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants. The affirmative covenants require the Company to provide the lenders with certain financial statements, budgets, compliance certificates and other documents and reports and to comply with certain laws. The negative covenants restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, create additional liens on its assets, make certain investments, dispose of its assets or engage in a merger or other similar transaction or engage in transactions with affiliates, which are subject, in each case, to the various exceptions and conditions described in the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. The negative covenants further restrict the Company’s ability to make certain restricted payments, including the payment of dividends in certain circumstances and repurchase of common equity in excess of $50,000 shares in any fiscal year.

The 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement also contains several financial covenants, measured on a consolidated basis. First, during the period commencing with the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024 through June 30, 2025, (a) there must be liquidity (which is defined as availability under the 2024 Revolver, plus unrestricted cash) that is more than the greater of (1) $35,000 and (2) 35% of the Revolving Amount, as defined in the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, (b) as of the end of each such quarter, total revenue on a trailing four-quarter basis must be greater than the requirements set forth in the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, and (c) for each period of four consecutive quarters, Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, must not be less than $10,000. Second, during the period commencing with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2025 until maturity, (i) the Leverage Ratio, as defined in the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, must not exceed 3.00 to 1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter and (ii) the Interest Coverage Ratio, as defined in the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, must not be less than 3.00 to 1.00 at the end of each fiscal quarter. The Leverage Ratio must not exceed 3.50 to 1.00 during certain periods following an acquisition of a certain size. The Company was in compliance with its financial debt covenants as of September 30, 2024.

The 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement also includes certain customary events of default. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, the lenders are entitled to take various actions, including the charging of a default rate of interest, accelerating the maturity of all loans and taking all actions permitted to be taken by a secured creditor with respect to the collateral for the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and under applicable law.

The obligations under the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are secured by:

substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of the Company and its material subsidiaries, except for existing real estate, client funds, client funds accounts, and other excluded accounts (as such terms are defined in the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement), and
the capital stock of the Company’s material subsidiaries.

Under the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the Company's wholly-owned subsidiaries, AvidXchange, Inc. and AFV Commerce, Inc., are the only borrowers, and AvidXchange Holdings, Inc. and certain subsidiaries of AvidXchange, Inc. and AFV Commerce, Inc. are co-guarantors.

Revolving Credit Facility

There was no balance outstanding under the 2024 Revolver as of September 30, 2024. The Company is required to pay on a quarterly basis a commitment fee of between 0.25% and 0.3% per annum as determined by the Leverage Ratio, with respect to the amount of the 2024 Revolver during the term of the agreement.

Deferred Financing Costs

Costs incurred with entering into the 2024 Amended and Restated Credit Agreement were deferred and amortized over the five-year term of the agreement. Of the remaining deferred costs associated with the 2022 Credit Agreement, $1,081 were written off and included in general and administrative expense in the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. The Company has $1,832 and $604 in deferred financing costs included in other noncurrent assets and deposits, and $0 and $1,090 of deferred financing costs associated with its term loans recorded net of long-term debt as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Amortization of deferred financing costs was $98 and $106 for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, and $310 and $326 for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which is presented in the consolidated statements of operations as interest expense.

Land Promissory Notes

The Company has two promissory notes executed in connection with the purchase of land parcels and improvements adjacent to its Charlotte, North Carolina headquarters campus. The aggregate outstanding principal amount was $13,900 as of September 30, 2024 and will be paid in two remaining equal annual payments of $4,800 and a final annual payment of $4,300, plus accrued interest at 6.75%.
