We and substantially all of our subsidiaries are parties to the Credit Facility with Bank of America, N.A., as agent (the "Agent") and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (together with the Agent, the "Lenders"). On October 23, 2020, we amended and extended the Credit Facility (the “Eighteenth Amendment”). The Credit Facility is a $110.0 million revolving credit facility (increased from $95.0 million by the Eighteenth Amendment), with an uncommitted accordion feature that, so long as no event of default exists, allows us to request an increase in the revolving credit facility of up to $50.0 million subject to Lender acceptance of the additional funding commitment. The Credit Facility includes a letter of credit sub facility in an aggregate amount of $105.0 million (increased from $95.0 million by the Eighteenth Amendment) and a swing line sub facility in an aggregate amount equal to the greater of $10.0 million or 10% of the Lenders' aggregate commitments under the Credit Facility from time-to-time. The Credit Facility matures in October 2025 (extended from September 2021 by the Eighteenth Amendment). Borrowings under the Credit Facility are classified as either "base rate loans" or "LIBOR loans." Base rate loans accrue interest at a base rate equal to the greater of the Agent’s prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, or LIBOR plus 1.0%, plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.25% to 0.75% (decreased from a range of 0.5% to 1.0% by the Eighteenth Amendment); while LIBOR loans accrue interest at LIBOR, plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.25% to 1.75% (decreased from a range of 1.5% to 2.0% by the Eighteenth Amendment). The applicable rates are adjusted quarterly based on average pricing availability. The unused line fee is the product of 0.25% times the average daily amount by which the Lenders' aggregate revolving commitments under the Credit Facility exceed the outstanding principal amount of revolver loans and the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding letters of credit issued under the Credit Facility. The obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by us and secured by a pledge of substantially all of our assets, with the notable exclusion of any real estate or revenue equipment pledged under other financing agreements, including revenue equipment installment notes and finance leases. Borrowings under the Credit Facility are subject to a borrowing base limited to the lesser of (A) $110.0 million (increased from $95.0 million by the Eighteenth Amendment), minus the sum of the stated amount of all outstanding letters of credit; or (B) the sum of (i) 87.5% (increased from 85% by the Eighteenth Amendment) of eligible accounts receivable, plus (ii) the least of (a) 85% of the appraised net orderly liquidation value of eligible revenue equipment, (b) 100% (increased from 95% by the Eighteenth Amendment) of the net book value of eligible revenue equipment, (c) 40.9% (increased from 35% by the Eighteenth Amendment) of the Lenders' aggregate revolving commitments under the Credit Facility, or (d) following the Eighteenth Amendment, $45.0 million, plus (iii) the lesser of (a) $10.4 million (as of the date of the Eighteenth Amendment) or (b) 80% (increased from 75% by the Eighteenth Amendment) of the appraised fair market value of eligible real estate, as reduced by a periodic amortization amount. We had $15.0 million borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility as of December 31, 2020, undrawn letters of credit outstanding of approximately $29.7 million, and available borrowing capacity of $65.3 million. Based on availability as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, there was no fixed charge coverage requirement. The Credit Facility includes usual and customary events of default for a facility of this nature and provides that, upon the occurrence and continuation of an event of default, payment of all amounts payable under the Credit Facility may be accelerated, and the Lenders' commitments may be terminated. If an event of default occurs under the Credit Facility and the Lenders cause, or have the ability to cause, all of the outstanding debt obligations under the Credit Facility to become due and payable, this could result in a default under other debt instruments that contain acceleration or cross-default provisions. The Credit Facility contains certain restrictions and covenants relating to, among other things, debt, dividends, liens, acquisitions and dispositions outside of the ordinary course of business, and affiliate transactions. Failure to comply with the covenants and restrictions set forth in the Credit Facility could result in an event of default. In connection with the TFS Settlement, on September 23, 2020, TBK Bank, SSB, as lender and agent for Triumph (“TBK Bank”), provided the Company with a $45 million line of credit (the “Draw Note”), the proceeds of which are to be used solely to satisfy our indemnification obligations under the TFS Settlement. We may borrow pursuant to the Draw Note until September 23, 2025. Any amount outstanding under the Draw Note will accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to one and one-half (1.5) percentage points over LIBOR, provided, however, that LIBOR shall be deemed to be at least 0.25%. Accrued interest is due monthly and the outstanding principal balance is due on September 23, 2026. To secure our obligations under the TFS Settlement and the Draw Note, we pledged certain unencumbered revenue equipment with an estimated net orderly liquidation value of $60 million. The Draw Note includes usual and customary events of default for a facility of this nature and provides that, upon occurrence and continuation of an event of default, payment of all amounts payable under the Draw Note may be accelerated. Pricing for the revenue equipment installment notes is quoted by the respective financial affiliates of our primary revenue equipment suppliers and other lenders at the funding of each group of equipment acquired and include fixed annual rates for new equipment under retail installment contracts. The notes included in the funding are due in monthly installments with final maturities at various dates ranging from January 2021 to January 2024. The notes contain certain requirements regarding payment, insuring of collateral, and other matters, but do not have any financial or other material covenants or events of default except certain notes totaling $14.7 million are cross-defaulted with the Credit Facility. Additional borrowings from the financial affiliates of our primary revenue equipment suppliers and other lenders are expected to be available to fund new tractors expected to be delivered in 2021, while any other property and equipment purchases, including trailers, are expected to be funded with a combination of available cash, notes, operating leases, finance leases, and/or from the Credit Facility. In April 2020, in an effort to improve our liquidity during the COVID-19 pandemic, we executed a modification to certain of our revenue equipment installment notes, exercising an option to make interest only payments for a period of 90 days, extending the due date of $177.3 million of debt by three months. Subsequently, we paid down more than $200.0 million of debt and lease obligations, including the debt we had extended the due date on. In August 2015, we financed a portion of the purchase of our corporate headquarters, a maintenance facility, and certain surrounding property in Chattanooga, Tennessee by entering into a $28.0 million variable rate note with a third party lender. Concurrently with entering into the note, we entered into an interest rate swap to effectively fix the related interest rate to 4.2%. The note contains certain restrictions and covenants that are usual and customary for a note of this nature. Failure to comply with the covenants and restrictions set forth in the note could result in an event of default. For the second quarter ended June 30, 2020, we obtained a waiver from the third-party lender for a financial covenant that we did not comply with. Absent the waiver we would have been in default under our covenants. During the third quarter ended September 30, 2020, there was an amendment to the calculation of the covenant and we were in compliance with the calculation as stated in the amendment. We expect to be in compliance with our debt covenants for the next 12 months. As of December 31, 2020, the scheduled principal payments of debt, excluding finance leases for which future payments are discussed in Note 9 are as follows:
|  | (in thousands) |
2021 |  | $ | 7,577 |

2023 |  |  | 5,703 |
