Line of Credit

The Company has a credit facility with Manufacturers & Traders Trust Company, People’s United Bank, VNB New York, LLC, and Bank Leumi USA, pursuant to which it may borrow up to $100,000,000, subject to borrowing base requirements. The facility provides for an interest rate equal to the one month LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 175 basis points to 300 basis points depending on the ratio of the Company’s total debt to total value, as determined pursuant to the facility. The applicable margin was 200 and 175 basis points at December 31, 2019 and 2018. An unused facility fee of .25% per annum applies to the facility. The average interest rate on the facility was approximately 4.03%, 3.73% and 2.87% during 2019, 2018 and 2017, respectively. In July 2019, the facility was amended to, among other things, extend its maturity from December 31, 2019 to December 31, 2022 and increased the amount that may be used for renovation and operating expense purposes. In connection with the amendment, the Company incurred a $550,000 commitment fee which will be amortized over the remaining term of the facility.

The credit facility includes certain restrictions and covenants which may limit, among other things, the incurrence of liens, and which require compliance with financial ratios relating to, among other things, the minimum amount of tangible net worth, the minimum amount of debt service coverage, the minimum amount of fixed charge coverage, the maximum amount of debt to value, the minimum level of net income, certain investment limitations and the minimum value of unencumbered properties and the number of such properties. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at December 31, 2019.

The facility is guaranteed by subsidiaries of the Company that own unencumbered properties and the Company pledged to the lenders the equity interests in the Company’s subsidiaries. The facility is available for the acquisition of commercial real estate, repayment of mortgage debt, renovation and operating expense purposes; provided, that if used for renovation and operating expense purposes, as determined pursuant to the facility, the amount outstanding for such purposes will not exceed the lesser of $30,000,000 and 30% of the borrowing base subject to a cap of (i) $20,000,000 for renovation expenses and (ii) $10,000,000 for operating expense purposes. Net proceeds received from the sale, financing or refinancing of properties are generally required to be used to repay amounts outstanding under the credit facility.
