17. | Subsequent Event
Credit Facility On April 5, 2021, we and certain of our foreign subsidiaries entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “2021 Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMorgan”), as administrative agent, U.S. Bank National Association, and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as co-syndication agents, Bank of the West, BMO Harris Bank, N.A., and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as co-documentation agents, and the Lenders (including JPMorgan) as defined in the 2021 Credit Agreement (the “Lenders”). The 2021 Credit Agreement provides us and certain of our foreign subsidiaries access to a senior secured credit facility until April 3, 2026, consisting of a term loan facility in an amount up to $100.0 million and a revolving facility in an amount up to $450.0 million with an option to expand the credit facility by up to $275.0 million, with the consent of the Lenders willing to provide additional borrowings in the form of increases to their revolving facility commitment or funding of incremental term loans. Borrowings may be denominated in U.S. dollars or certain other currencies. The fee for committed funds under the revolving facility of the 2021 Credit Agreement ranges from an annual rate of 0.15% to 0.30%, depending on our leverage ratio. Borrowings denominated in U.S. dollars under the 2021 Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (a) the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (iii) the adjusted LIBO rate for a one month period, but in any case, not less than 1%, plus, in any such case, 1.0%, plus an additional spread of 0.10% to 0.70%, depending on our leverage ratio, or (b) the LIBO Rate, as adjusted for statutory reserve requirements for eurocurrency liabilities, but in any case, not less than 0%, plus an additional spread of 1.10% to 1.70%, depending on our leverage ratio. In connection with the 2021 Credit Agreement, we reaffirmed our security interest in favor of the lenders in substantially all our personal property, and pledged the stock of our domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the stock of our first tier foreign subsidiaries. The obligations under the 2021 Credit Agreement are also guaranteed by certain of our first tier domestic subsidiaries and those subsidiaries also provided a security interest in their similar personal property. The 2021 Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, including but not limited to covenants restricting our ability to incur indebtedness and liens and merge or consolidate with another entity. Further, the 2021 Credit Agreement contains the following covenants:
| • | a covenant requiring us to maintain an indebtedness to EBITDA ratio, determined as of the end of each of its fiscal quarters, of no greater than 3.50 to 1.00, with certain alternative requirements for permitted acquisitions greater than $50.0 million;
| • | a covenant requiring us to maintain an EBITDA to interest expense ratio for a period of four consecutive fiscal quarters as of the end of each quarter of no less than 3.00 to 1; and
| • | a covenant restricting us from paying dividends or repurchasing stock if, after giving effect to such payments and assuming no default exists or would result from such payment, our leverage ratio is greater than 2.50 to 1, in such case limiting such payments to $60.0 million during any fiscal year.
Redemption of Senior Notes On April 2, 2021, we issued a conditional notice of redemption for $300.0 million principal amount outstanding of our 5.625% Senior Notes due 2025 (CUSIP 880345 AB29) (the "Notes") in May 2021, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions. The redemption of the Notes is subject to and conditioned upon Tennant’s receipt prior to the redemption date of funds from its term and revolving loan facility, that together with cash on hand, are sufficient to pay, in the sole discretion of the Company, the redemption price. We plan to use the proceeds from the borrowings under the amended credit agreement to retire our Senior Notes and pay the $8.4 million call premium due upon redemption. In addition, at the time of redemption of the Senior Notes, we will be writing off $2.8 million of unamortized debt issuance costs.
