(in thousands, except interest rates) | June 30, 2023 | December 31, 2022
Revolving credit agreement with borrowings outstanding at an end of period interest rate of 3.68% in 2023 and 3.16% in 2022 (including the effect of interest rate hedging transactions, as described below), due in 2024 | $ | 487,000 |  | $ | 439,000 |
We had no current maturities of Long-term debt as of June 30, 2023 or December 31, 2022. On October 27, 2020, we entered into a $700 million Amended and Restated unsecured Four-Year Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which amended and restated the prior $685 million Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility Agreement, entered into on November 7, 2017. On June 23, 2023, we entered into the first Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement and the First Amendment, collectively, the "Amended Credit Agreement") to replace the LIBOR-based reference interest rate option with a reference interest rate option based on the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("Term SOFR") plus an applicable credit spread adjustment (subject to a minimum floor of 0.00%). The Amendment did not make any other material changes to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, including the representations and warranties, events of default, affirmative and negative covenants. The applicable interest rate for borrowings is based on Term SOFR plus a spread, which is based on our leverage ratio (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) at the time of a borrowing as follows:
Leverage Ratio | Commitment Fee | ABR Spread | Total Spread
<1.00:1.00 | 0.275% | 0.500% | 1.500%
≥ 1.00:1.00 and < 2.00:1.00 | 0.300% | 0.625% | 1.625%
≥ 2.00:1.00 and < 3.00:1.00 | 0.325% | 0.750% | 1.750%
≥ 3.00:1.00 | 0.350% | 1.000% | 2.000%
As of June 30, 2023, however, the applicable interest rate for borrowings was based on LIBOR plus the spread, which was 1.625%. As of June 30, 2023, there was $487 million of borrowings outstanding under the Amended Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2023, we had borrowings available of $213 million, based on our maximum leverage ratio and our Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary terms, as well as affirmative covenants, negative covenants and events of default. As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all applicable covenants. We anticipate continued compliance in each of the next four quarters while continuing to monitor its future compliance based on current and future economic conditions. The borrowings are guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement. Our ability to borrow additional amounts under the Amended Credit Agreement is conditional upon the absence of any defaults, as well as the absence of any material adverse change (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). On June 14, 2021, we entered into interest rate swap agreements for the period October 17, 2022 through October 27, 2024. These transactions have the effect of fixing the LIBOR portion of the effective interest rate (before addition of the spread) on $350 million of indebtedness, drawn under the Amended Credit Agreement at the rate of 0.838% during the period. Under the terms of these transactions, we paid the fixed rate of 0.838% and the counterparties paid a floating rate based on the one-month LIBOR rate at each monthly calculation date. The Amended Credit Agreement monthly calculation date is the 16th of each month, and on June 16, 2023, one-month LIBOR was 5.16%. As of June 16, 2023, the all-in-rate on the $350 million of debt was 2.463%. On June 29, 2023, the Company amended each Swap agreement, in accordance with the practical expedients included in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 848, Reference Rate Reform, to replace the LIBOR Benchmark with a Term SOFR Benchmark. As a result of the amendments, we will pay a fixed blended rate of 0.7683% (plus a credit spread adjustment as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) through October 27, 2024 on $350 million of borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement. The effective date of the amended Swap agreements is July 17, 2023. On October 17, 2022, our interest rate swap agreements that were in effect from December 18, 2017 terminated. These transactions had the effect of fixing the LIBOR portion of the effective interest rate (before addition of the spread) on $350 million of indebtedness drawn under the Credit Agreement at the rate of 2.11% during the period. Under the terms of those transactions, we paid the fixed rate of 2.11% and the counterparties paid a floating rate based on the one-month LIBOR rate at each monthly calculation date. The all-in-rate on the $350 million of debt was 3.735% at the time the swap agreements terminated. These interest rate swaps are accounted for as a hedge of future cash flows, as further described in Note 14. Fair-Value Measurements. No cash collateral was received or pledged in relation to the swap agreements. Under the Amended Credit Agreement, we are required to maintain leverage and minimum interest coverage ratios (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not greater than 3.50 to 1.00 and greater than 3.00 to 1.00, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, our leverage ratio was 1.49 to 1.00 and our interest coverage ratio was 14.36 to 1.00. We may purchase our Common Stock or pay dividends to the extent our leverage ratio remains at or below 3.50 to 1.00, and may make acquisitions with cash, provided our leverage ratio does not exceed the limits noted above. Indebtedness under the Amended Credit Agreement is ranked equally in right of payment to all unsecured senior debt.
