Previous Credit Agreement

We had a senior secured revolving credit agreement the ("Previous Credit Agreement") with JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A (the "Lender") that matured on March 31, 2021. Prior to maturation, the outstanding balance of $417,000 was repaid. The Previous Credit Agreement had an aggregate commitment of $30 million, subject to collateral availability.

New Credit Agreement

On May 11, 2021, we entered into a five year senior secured revolving credit agreement ("New Credit Agreement") with Texas Capital Bank, National Association (the "Lender") with an initial commitment of $20 million and an accordion feature that would increase the maximum commitment to $30 million, subject to collateral availability. We also have a right to request from the Lender, on an uncommitted basis, an increase of up to $30 million on the aggregate commitment; provided, however, the aggregate commitment amount is not permitted to exceed $50 million. The maturity date of the New Credit Agreement is May 11, 2026. The obligations under the New Credit Agreement are secured by a first priority lien on a variety of our assets, including inventory and accounts receivable as well as a variable number of our leased compressor equipment.

Borrowing Base. At any time before the maturity of the New Credit Agreement, we may draw, repay and re-borrow amounts available under the borrowing base up to the maximum aggregate availability discussed above. Generally, the borrowing base equals the sum of (a) 90% of eligible accounts receivable owed to the Company by investment grade debtors, plus (b) 85% of the eligible accounts receivable owing by non-investment grade debtors, plus (c) 50% of the eligible inventory,
valued at the lower of cost or market value at such time, subject to a cap of this component not to exceed $2.0 million, plus (d) the lesser of (i) 95% of the net book value of the compressors that the Lender has determined are eligible for the extension of credit, valued at the lower of cost or market value with depreciation not to exceed 25 years, at such time and (ii) 80% of the net liquidation value percentage of the net book value of the eligible compressors that the Lender has determined are eligible for the extension of credit, valued at the lower of cost or market value with depreciation not to exceed 25 years, at such time, plus (e) 80% of the value at cost (excluding any costs for capitalized interest or other non-cash capitalized costs) of the eligible new compressor fleet, minus (f) any required availability reserves determined by the Lender in its sole discretion. The Lender may adjust the borrowing base components if material deviations in the collateral are discovered in future audits of the collateral. As of September 30, 2021, our allowable borrowing base was $20.0 million.

Interest and Fees. Under the terms of the New Credit Agreement, we have the option of selecting the applicable variable rate for each revolving loan, or portion thereof, of either (a) the Base Rate (as defined below) plus the Applicable Margin, or (b) in the case of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin. "Base Rate" means, for any day, a rate of interest per annum equal to the highest of (a) the prime rate for such day; (b) the sum of the federal funds rate for such day plus 0.50%; and (c) the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate for such day plus 1.00%. The Applicable Margin is determined based upon the leverage ratio as set forth in the most recent compliance certificate received by the Lender for each fiscal quarter from time to time pursuant to the New Credit Agreement. Depending on the leverage ratio, the Applicable Margin can be 0.25% to 0.75% for Base Rate Loans (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) and 1.25% to 1.75% for Eurodollar Rate Loans and for requested letters of credit. In addition, we are required to pay a monthly commitment fee on the daily average unused amount of the commitment while the New Credit Agreement is in effect at an annual rate equal to 0.25% of the unused commitment amount. Accrued interest is payable monthly on outstanding principal amounts and unused commitment fee, provided that accrued interest on Eurodollar Rate Loans is payable at the end of each interest period, but in no event less frequently than quarterly.

Covenants. The New Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, as well as covenants which, among other things, condition or limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness and liens; enter into transactions with affiliates; make acquisitions in excess of certain amounts; pay dividends; redeem or repurchase capital stock or senior notes; make investments or loans; make negative pledges; consolidate, merge or effect asset sales; or change the nature of our business. In addition, we also have certain financial covenants that are applicable during certain trigger periods specified in the Credit Agreement and require us during such trigger periods to maintain a leverage ratio less than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter and a fixed charge coverage ratio greater than or equal to 1.00 to 1.00 as of the last day of each fiscal quarter.

Events of Default and Acceleration. The New Credit Agreement contains customary events of default for credit facilities of this size and type, and includes, without limitation, payment defaults; defaults in performance of covenants or other agreements contained in the Credit Agreement and the other transaction documents; inaccuracies in representations and warranties; certain defaults, termination events or similar events; certain defaults with respect to any other Company indebtedness in excess of $1.0 million; certain bankruptcy or insolvency events; the rendering of certain judgments in excess of $1.0 million; certain ERISA events; certain change in control events and the defectiveness of any liens under the secured revolving credit agreement. Obligations outstanding under the Credit Agreement may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an event of default.

As of September 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all financial covenants in our New Credit Agreement. At September 30, 2021, we had no amounts outstanding under the New Credit Agreement.
