Our debt is subject to various affirmative and negative covenants. As of December 31, 2017, we were in compliance with all debt covenants. Under the ABL Credit Facility and the indenture governing the 7.75% Senior Secured Notes, our subsidiaries are restricted from paying dividends or making other equity distributions, subject to certain exceptions. 7.75% Senior Secured Notes Due 2025 On December 21, 2017, Par Petroleum, LLC and Par Petroleum Finance Corp. (collectively, the "Issuers"), both our wholly-owned subsidiaries, completed the issuance and sale of $300 million in aggregate principal amount of 7.75% Senior Secured Notes in a private placement under Rule 144A and Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The net proceeds of $289.2 million (net of financing costs and original issue discount of 1%) from the sale were used to repay the Hawaii Retail Credit Facilities, the Wyoming Refining Credit Facilities, the Par Wyoming Holdings Credit Agreement, and the J. Aron Forward Sale, and for general corporate purposes. The 7.75% Senior Secured Notes bear interest at a rate of 7.750% per year beginning December 21, 2017 (payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on June 15, 2018) and will mature on December 15, 2025. The indenture governing the 7.75% Senior Secured Notes contains restrictive covenants limiting the ability of Par Petroleum, LLC and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the indenture) to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, issue certain preferred shares, create liens on certain assets to secure debt, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all assets, or pay dividends. The 7.75% Senior Secured Notes are secured by first priority liens (subject to the relative priority of permitted liens) on substantially all of the property and assets of the Issuers and the subsidiary guarantors, including but not limited to, material real property now owned or hereafter acquired by the Issuers or subsidiary guarantors and their equipment, intellectual property, and equity interests, but excluding certain property which is collateral under the ABL Credit Facility and collateral under the Supply and Offtake Agreements. The 7.75% Senior Secured Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis, jointly and severally, by each of Par Petroleum, LLC’s existing wholly-owned subsidiaries (other than Par Petroleum Finance Corp.), and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis only as to the payment of principal and interest by Par Pacific Holdings, Inc. In the future, the 7.75% Senior Secured Notes will be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by additional subsidiaries of Par Petroleum, LLC that guarantee material indebtedness of the Issuers or otherwise become obligated with respect to material indebtedness under a credit facility, subject to certain exceptions. ABL Credit Facility On December 21, 2017, in connection with the issuance of the 7.75% Senior Secured Notes, Par Petroleum, LLC, PHI, Mid Pac, HIE Retail, LLC, and WRC (collectively, the “ABL Borrowers”), entered into a Loan and Security Agreement dated as of December 21, 2017 (the “ABL Credit Facility”) with certain lenders and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent. The ABL Credit Facility provides for a revolving credit facility in the maximum principal amount at any time outstanding of $75 million, subject to a borrowing base, which provides for revolving loans and for the issuance of letters of credit (the “ABL Revolver”). The ABL Revolver was undrawn and had a borrowing base of approximately $48.7 million at December 31, 2017. The revolving loans under the ABL Revolver bear interest at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to (i) during the periods such revolving loan is a base rate loan, the base rate plus the applicable margin in effect from time to time, and (ii) during the periods such revolving loan is a LIBOR Loan, at LIBOR for the applicable interest period plus the applicable margin in effect from time to time. The base rate is equal to (i) daily LIBOR ("LIBOR Daily Floating Rate") or (ii) if the LIBOR Daily Floating Rate is unavailable for any reason, a rate as calculated per the agreement (the "Prime Rate") for such day. The maturity date of the ABL Revolver is December 21, 2022, on which date all revolving loans will be due and payable in full. The applicable margins for the ABL Credit Facility and advances under the ABL Revolver are as specified below:
Level |  | Arithmetic Mean of Daily Availability (as a percentage of the borrowing base) |  | Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans and Base Rate Loans Subject to LIBOR Daily Floating Rate |  | Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans Subject to the Prime Rate
1 |  | >50% |  | 1.75% |  | 0.75%
2 |  | >30% but ≤50% |  | 2.00% |  | 1.00%
3 |  | ≤30% |  | 2.25% |  | 1.25%
The obligations of the ABL Borrowers are guaranteed by Par and Par Petroleum, LLC's existing and future direct or indirect domestic subsidiaries that are not borrowers under the ABL Credit Facility. The loans and letters of credit issued under the ABL Credit Facility are secured by a first-priority security interest in and lien on certain assets of the borrowers and the guarantors, including cash and cash equivalents and inventory, and excluding the assets of PHR. J. Aron Forward Sale As part of the May 8, 2017 amendment to the Supply and Offtake Agreements, we also entered into a $30 million forward sale of jet fuel to be delivered to J. Aron over the amended term (“J. Aron Forward Sale”). The proceeds from the J. Aron Forward Sale were used to pay a portion of the outstanding balance on the Term Loan (as defined below). The cost of the J. Aron Forward Sale was based upon an annual interest rate of 7%. Upon issuance of the 7.75% Senior Secured Notes on December 21, 2017, we repaid in full and terminated the J. Aron Forward Sale and recognized $0.3 million of costs associated with the termination of the agreement, which is included within Loss on termination of financing agreements on our consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017. Par Wyoming Holdings Credit Agreement On July 14, 2016, in connection with the WRC Acquisition, Par Wyoming Holdings, LLC, our indirect wholly owned subsidiary, entered into the Par Wyoming Holdings Credit Agreement with certain lenders and Chambers Energy Management, LP, as agent, which provided for a single advance secured term loan to our subsidiary in the amount of $65.0 million (the “Par Wyoming Holdings Term Loan”) at the closing of the WRC Acquisition. The proceeds of the Par Wyoming Holdings Term Loan were used to pay a portion of the consideration for the WRC Acquisition, to pay certain fees and closing costs, and for general corporate purposes. The Par Wyoming Holdings Term Loan was originally scheduled to mature on July 14, 2021. The Par Wyoming Holdings Term Loan bore interest at a rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus an applicable interest margin. With respect to cash interest, the applicable interest margin was at a rate per annum equal to 9.5%. With respect to paid-in-kind (“PIK”) interest, the applicable interest margin was at a rate per annum equal to 13%. Interest was payable in arrears on (a) the last day of each fiscal quarter, (b) the maturity date, and (c) the date of any repayment or prepayment of the Par Wyoming Holdings Term Loan. Upon issuance of the 7.75% Senior Secured Notes on December 21, 2017, we repaid in full and terminated the Par Wyoming Holdings Credit Agreement and recognized $5.2 million of costs associated with the termination of the agreement, which is included within Loss on termination of financing agreements on our consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017. Wyoming Refining Credit Facilities Wyoming Refining Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, Wyoming Pipeline Company LLC, were borrowers (the “Wyoming Refining Credit Facility Borrowers”) under a Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement dated as of April 30, 2015 (as amended, the “Wyoming Refining Credit Facilities”), with Bank of America, N.A., as the lender. The Wyoming Refining Credit Facilities remained in place following the consummation of the WRC Acquisition. On July 14, 2016, and in connection with the consummation of the WRC Acquisition, the Wyoming Refining Credit Facilities were amended pursuant to a Third Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Third Loan Amendment”) and a Fourth Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Fourth Loan Amendment”). Pursuant to the Third Loan Amendment, which was entered into immediately prior to the consummation of the WRC Acquisition, Black Elk Refining, LLC was released from all of its obligations under the Wyoming Refining Credit Facilities and Par Wyoming, LLC joined and became a party to the Wyoming Refining Credit Facilities and the applicable security agreement and guaranteed all obligations of the borrowers under the Wyoming Refining Credit Facilities. The Fourth Loan Amendment was entered into immediately following the consummation of the WRC Acquisition and amended certain covenants in the Wyoming Refining Credit Facilities applicable to Par Wyoming, LLC and the Wyoming Refining Credit Facility Borrowers. On August 7, 2017, we entered into an amendment to the Wyoming Refining Credit Facilities to extend the maturity date from April 30, 2018 until June 30, 2019. The Wyoming Refining Credit Facilities originally provided for (a) a revolving credit facility in the maximum principal amount at any time outstanding of $30 million (“Wyoming Refining Senior Secured Revolver”), subject to a borrowing base, which provided for revolving loans and for the issuance of letters of credit and (b) certain term loans that are fully advanced (“Wyoming Refining Senior Secured Term Loan”). The Wyoming Refining Senior Secured Term Loan bore interest at a rate equal to monthly LIBOR plus 3.0%. The Wyoming Refining Senior Secured Term Loan required quarterly principal payments of $2.3 million. Upon issuance of the 7.75% Senior Secured Notes on December 21, 2017, we repaid in full and terminated the Wyoming Refining Credit Facilities and recognized $0.1 million of costs associated with the termination of the agreement, which is included within Loss on termination of financing agreements on our consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017. 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes Due 2021 In June 2016, we completed the issuance and sale of $115 million in aggregate principal amount of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes in a private placement under Rule 144A (the “Notes Offering”). The Notes Offering included the exercise in full of an option to purchase an additional $15 million in aggregate principal amount of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes granted to the initial purchasers. The net proceeds of $111.6 million (net of original issue discount of 3%) from the sale of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes were used to finance a portion of the WRC Acquisition, to repay $5 million in principal amount of the Term Loan (as defined below), and for general corporate purposes. The 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.00% per year beginning June 21, 2016 (payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2016) and will mature on June 15, 2021. The initial conversion rate for the notes is 55.5556 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes (or a total amount of 6,388,894 shares), which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $18.00 per share of common stock, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events. Conversions of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes will be settled in cash, shares of common stock, or a combination thereof at our election. The holders of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes may exercise their conversion rights at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the maturity date under certain circumstances. The 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes are not redeemable by us prior to June 20, 2019. On or after June 20, 2019, we may redeem all or any portion of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes if the last reported sales price of our common stock is at least 140% of the conversion price then in effect (i) on the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption and (ii) for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during any 30 consecutive trading day period ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which we provide notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and a make-whole premium, which is equal to the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of interest on the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes to be redeemed from the relevant redemption date to the maturity date of June 15, 2021. We have determined that the redemption option and the related make-whole premium represent an embedded derivative that is not clearly and closely related to the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes. Please read Note 12—Derivatives for further information on embedded derivatives. We separately account for the liability and equity components of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes. The fair value of the liability component was calculated using a discount rate of an identical debt instrument without a conversion feature. Based on this borrowing rate, the fair value of the liability component of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes on the issuance date was $89.3 million. The carrying amount of the equity component was determined to be $22.2 million by deducting the fair value of the liability component from the $111.6 million net proceeds of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes. The deferred financing costs of $0.6 million related to 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes were allocated on a proportionate basis between Long-term debt and Additional paid-in capital on the consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2017, the if-converted value was $8.2 million in excess of the outstanding principal amount of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes. As of December 31, 2017, the outstanding principal amount of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes was $115.0 million, the unamortized discount and deferred financing cost was $19.5 million and the carrying amount of the liability component was $95.5 million. The unamortized discount and deferred financing costs will be amortized to Interest expense and financing costs, net over the term of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes. Hawaii Retail Credit Facilities On December 17, 2015, we entered into the Hawaii Retail Credit Facilities in the form of a revolving credit facility up to $5 million (“Hawaii Retail Revolving Credit Facilities”) that provided for revolving loans and for the issuance of letters of credit and term loans (“Hawaii Retail Term Loans”) in the aggregate principal amount of $110 million. The proceeds of the Hawaii Retail Term Loans were used to repay in full existing indebtedness under the previous credit facilities, to pay transaction fees and expenses, to repay a portion of existing indebtedness under the Term Loan (as defined below), and to facilitate a cash distribution to Par. The Hawaii Retail Term Loans originally matured on December 17, 2022 and required principal payments of $2.75 million on the last business day of each fiscal quarter. The Hawaii Retail Revolving Credit Facilities originally matured on December 17, 2020. The Hawaii Retail Term Loans and advances under the Hawaii Retail Revolving Credit Facilities bore interest at a fluctuating rate (i) during the periods such revolving loan or term loan, as applicable, equal to a Base Rate Loan, the Base Rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.25%, and (ii) during the periods such revolving loan or term loan, as applicable, equal to a Eurodollar Loan, the relevant Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such Eurodollar Loan for the applicable interest period plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.50% to 3.25%. The effective interest rate for 2017 on the outstanding loan was 4.0%. Upon issuance of the 7.75% Senior Secured Notes on December 21, 2017, we repaid in full and terminated the Hawaii Retail Credit Facilities and recognized $1.2 million of costs associated with the termination of the agreement, which is included within Loss on termination of financing agreements on our consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2017. Bridge Notes On July 14, 2016, we issued approximately $52.6 million in aggregate principal amount of bridge notes in a private offering pursuant to the terms of a note purchase agreement (the “Bridge Notes”) entered into among the purchasers of the Bridge Notes and us. On September 22, 2016, we completed a registered pro-rata subscription rights offering of approximately 4 million shares of our common stock (the “Rights Offering”). The Rights Offering resulted in gross proceeds, before expenses, of approximately $49.9 million. We used the net proceeds from the Rights Offering to repay all accrued and unpaid interest and a portion of the outstanding principal amount on the Bridge Notes. The remaining $3.1 million aggregate principal amount and $0.3 million unpaid interest of the Bridge Notes was mandatorily converted into 272,733 shares of our common stock based on a conversion price of $12.25 per share. In connection with our repayment of the Bridge Notes, we expensed $3.0 million of financing costs, which are included within Interest expense and financing costs, net on our consolidated statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2016. Term Loan On July 11, 2014, we and certain subsidiaries entered into a Delayed Draw Term Loan and Bridge Loan Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”), amending and restating a previous borrowing arrangement with the lenders, to provide us with a term loan of up to $50.0 million (“Term Loan”) and a bridge loan of up to $75.0 million (“Bridge Loan”). The lenders under the Credit Agreement include ZCOF Par Petroleum Holdings, LLC and Highbridge International, LLC, who are also our significant stockholders. Proceeds from the Term Loan were used to fund a deposit per the Mid Pac merger agreement, to pay transaction costs, and for working capital and general corporate purposes. On June 15, 2016, the Credit Agreement was amended to permit (i) the issuance of the 5.00% Convertible Senior Notes, (ii) the issuance of our Bridge Notes, and (iii) the WRC Acquisition. We paid a consent fee of $2.5 million in connection with this amendment, $1.3 million of which was paid to an affiliate of Whitebox Advisors, LLC (“Whitebox”), one of our largest stockholders. On June 21, 2016, we repaid $5 million of the Term Loan pursuant to the terms of the amendment, $3.3 million of which was allocated to an affiliate of Whitebox. Please read Note 20—Related Party Transactions for additional information. The Term Loan originally matured on July 11, 2018 and bore interest at either 10% per annum if paid in cash or 12% per annum if paid in kind, at our election, and had an original issue discount of 5%. On June 30, 2017, we fully repaid the Term Loan and terminated the Credit Agreement. A portion of the proceeds from the J. Aron Forward Sale and cash flows from operations were used to repay the full amount outstanding. We recorded a loss on termination of approximately $1.8 million related to unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the Term Loan in the year ended December 31, 2017. Cross Default Provisions Included within each of our debt instruments are customary cross default provisions that require the repayment of amounts outstanding on demand should an event of default occur and not be cured within the permitted grace period, if any. As of December 31, 2017, we are in compliance with all of our debt instruments. Guarantors In connection with our shelf registration statement on Form S-3, which was filed with the SEC on September 2, 2016 and declared effective on September 16, 2016 (“Registration Statement”), we may sell non-convertible debt securities and other securities in one or more offerings with an aggregate initial offering price of up to $750.0 million. Any non-convertible debt securities issued under the Registration Statement may be fully and unconditionally guaranteed (except for customary release provisions), on a joint and several basis, by some or all of our subsidiaries, other than subsidiaries that are “minor” within the meaning of Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X (the “Guarantor Subsidiaries”). We have no “independent assets or operations” within the meaning of Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X and certain of the Guarantor Subsidiaries are subject to restrictions on their ability to distribute funds to us, whether by cash dividends, loans, or advances.
