Term Credit Agreement(1) |  | January 1, 2030 |  | $ | 179,709 |  |  | $ | 157,505 |
Total long-term debt |  |  |  | $ | 179,709 |  |  | $ | 157,505 |
(1) Net of unamortized discount of $5.2 million and $2.2 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and net of unamortized deferred financing costs of $5.1 million and $3.3 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Term Credit Agreement On January 12, 2024, the Company entered into a definitive agreement for a $265.0 million credit facility, consisting of a $190.0 million funded term loan and a $75.0 million delayed-draw term loan (collectively the “Term Credit Agreement”) that refinanced the Company’s prior credit facility outstanding as of December 31, 2023 and provided capital to advance the Company’s proposed Arkansas bromine processing project. Pricing on the Term Credit Agreement is the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) plus 5.75%. The Company is required to pay a commitment fee on the unutilized commitments with respect to the delayed-draw term loan at the rate of 1.5% per annum. The interest rate per annum on borrowings under the Term Credit Agreement is 11.19% as of September 30, 2024 and the maturity date of the Term Credit Agreement is January 1, 2030. The Company used the net proceeds to repay in full the balance of its prior credit facility, with approximately $15.2 million of additional cash, net of discounts and transaction expenses. In connection with the Term Credit Agreement, we incurred approximately $5.3 million of fees which were deferred and will be amortized over the term of the Term Credit Agreement. As a result of termination of the prior credit facility, a loss of $5.5 million was recognized during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 primarily for unamortized deferred financing costs. The Term Credit Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to take certain actions including, among other things and subject to certain significant exceptions, the incurrence of debt, the granting of liens, engaging in mergers and other fundamental changes, the making of investments, entering into transactions with affiliates, the payment of dividends and other restricted payments, the prepayment of other indebtedness and the sale of assets. The Term Credit Agreement also requires the Company to maintain a Leverage Ratio (as defined in the new term loan credit agreement) of not more than 4.0 to 1.0 as of the end of each fiscal quarter and Liquidity (as defined in the Term Credit Agreement) of not less than $50.0 million at all times. All obligations under the Term Credit Agreement and the guarantees of those obligations are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by a security interest on substantially all of the property of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries, subject to the lien priorities set forth in the intercreditor agreement with the agent under our ABL Credit Agreement. Our Term Credit Agreement requires us to offer to prepay a percentage of Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the Term Credit Agreement) within five business days of filing our Annual Report beginning with the financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2024. The Term Credit Agreement includes customary events of default including non-payment of principal, interest or fees, violation of covenants, inaccuracy of representations or warranties, cross-default to other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, invalidity or impairment of security interests or invalidity of loan documents, certain ERISA events, unsatisfied or unstayed judgments and change of control. ABL Credit Agreement On May 13, 2024, we entered into an amendment (the “ABL Amendment”) to the Asset-Based Lending agreement dated as of September 10, 2018 (as amended, the “ABL Credit Agreement”). In connection with the ABL Amendment, Bank of America, N.A. became successor administrative agent to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. Furthermore, approximately $0.6 million of fees were incurred in connection with the ABL Amendment, which were deferred and will be amortized over the term of the ABL Credit Agreement. As of September 30, 2024, our ABL Credit Agreement provides, with certain restrictions, for a senior secured revolving credit facility of up to $100.0 million with a $25.0 million accordion. The credit facility is subject to a borrowing base determined monthly by reference to the value of inventory and accounts receivable, and includes a sublimit of $20.0 million for letters of credit, and a swingline loan sublimit of $11.5 million. The ABL Credit Agreement matures on May 13, 2029. As of September 30, 2024, we had no borrowings outstanding and $0.2 million letters of credit or guarantees under our ABL Credit Agreement. Deferred financing costs of $0.8 million and $0.6 million as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, were classified as other long-term assets on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as there was no outstanding balance on our ABL Credit Agreement. Subject to compliance with the covenants, borrowing base, and other provisions of the ABL Credit Agreement that may limit borrowings, we had availability of $68.2 million under this agreement. Borrowings under the ABL Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the option of TETRA, either (i) the standard overnight financing rate plus 0.10%, (ii) a base rate plus a margin based on a fixed charge coverage ratio, or (iii) the Daily Simple Risk Free Rate plus 0.10%. The base rate is determined by reference to the highest of (a) the prime rate of interest as announced from time to time by Bank of America, N.A. (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) plus 0.5% per annum and (c) the standard overnight financing rate (adjusted to reflect any required bank reserves) for a one-month period on such day plus 1.0% per annum, provided that the base rate shall not be less than 1.0%. Borrowings outstanding have an applicable margin ranging from 2.00% to 2.50% per annum for SOFR-based loans and 1.00% to 1.50% per annum for base-rate loans, based upon the applicable fixed charge coverage ratio. In addition to paying interest on the outstanding principal under the ABL Credit Agreement, TETRA is required to pay a commitment fee in respect of the unutilized commitments at an applicable rate of 0.375% per annum. TETRA is also required to pay a customary letter of credit fee equal to the applicable margin on loans and fronting fees. All obligations under the ABL Credit Agreement and the guarantees of those obligations are secured, subject to certain exceptions, by a security interest for the benefit of the ABL Lenders on substantially all of the personal property of TETRA and certain subsidiaries of TETRA, the equity interests in certain domestic subsidiaries, and a maximum of 65% of the equity interests in certain foreign subsidiaries. Swedish Credit Facility In January 2022, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility for seasonal working capital needs of subsidiaries in Sweden (“Swedish Credit Facility”). As of September 30, 2024, we had no balance outstanding and availability of approximately $4.9 million under the Swedish Credit Facility. During each year, all outstanding loans under the Swedish Credit Facility must be repaid for at least 30 consecutive days. Borrowings bear interest at a rate of 2.95% per annum. The Swedish Credit Facility expires on December 31, 2024 and the Company intends to renew it annually. Finland Credit Agreement In January 2022, the Company also entered into an agreement guaranteed by certain accounts receivable and inventory in Finland (“Finland Credit Agreement”). As of September 30, 2024, there were $1.5 million of letters of credit outstanding against the Finland Credit Agreement. The Finland Credit Agreement expires on January 31, 2025 and the Company intends to renew it annually. Covenants Our credit agreements contain certain affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that restrict the ability to pay dividends or other restricted payments. As of September 30, 2024, we are in compliance with all covenants under the credit agreements.
