Debt Refinancing The Company refinanced its outstanding debt obligations on December 3, 2014 in connection with the Orange-Co acquisition (see Note 4 “Acquisitions and Dispositions”). The new credit facilities initially included $125,000,000 in fixed interest rate term loans, $57,500,000 in variable interest rate term loans, a $25,000,000 revolving line of credit (“RLOC”) with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and New England Life Insurance Company (collectively “Met”), and a $70,000,000 working capital line of credit (“WCLC”) with Rabo Agrifinance, Inc. (“Rabo”). The new term loans and RLOC are secured by approximately 39,300 gross acres of citrus groves and 14,000 gross acres of farm and ranch land. The WCLC is secured by the Company’s current assets and certain other personal property owned by the Company. The new term loans are subject to quarterly principal payments of $2,281,250, and mature November 1, 2029. The fixed-rate term loans bear interest at 4.15% per annum, and the variable-rate term loans bear interest at a rate equal to 90 day LIBOR plus 150 basis points (the “LIBOR spread”). The LIBOR spread is subject to adjustment by the lender on May 1, 2017, and every two years thereafter until maturity. Interest on the term loans is payable quarterly. The interest rate on the variable rate term loans was 2.12% per annum as of March 31, 2016. The Company may prepay up to $8,750,000 of the fixed-rate term loan principal annually without penalty, and any such prepayments may be applied to reduce subsequent mandatory principal payments. The maximum annual prepayment was made for calendar year 2015 and remains available to reduce future mandatory principal payments when the Company elects to do so. The variable- rate term loans may be prepaid without penalty. The RLOC bears interest at a floating rate equal to 90 day LIBOR plus 150 basis points, payable quarterly. The LIBOR spread is subject to adjustment by the lender on May 1, 2017, and every two years thereafter. Outstanding principal, if any, is due at maturity on November 1, 2019. The RLOC is subject to an annual commitment fee of 25 basis points on the unused portion of the line of credit. The RLOC is available for funding general corporate needs. The variable interest rate was 2.12% per annum as of March 31, 2016. Availability under the RLOC was $20,000,000 as of March 31, 2016. The WCLC is a revolving credit facility and is available for funding working capital and general corporate requirements. The interest rate on the WCLC is based on the one month LIBOR, plus a spread, which is adjusted quarterly, based on the Company's debt service coverage ratio for the preceding quarter and can vary from 175 to 250 basis points. The rate is currently at LIBOR plus 175 basis points. The variable interest rate was 2.19% per annum as of March 31, 2016. The WCLC facility matures November 1, 2016. Availability under the WCLC was approximately $56,000,000 as of March 31, 2016. The WCLC is subject to a quarterly commitment fee on the daily unused availability under the line computed as the commitment amount less the aggregate of the outstanding loans and outstanding letters of credit. The commitment fee is adjusted quarterly based on Alico's debt service coverage ratio for the preceding quarter and can vary from a minimum of 20 basis points to a maximum of 30 basis points. The WCLC agreement provides for Rabo to issue up to $20,000,000 in letters of credit on the Company’s behalf. As of March 31, 2016, there was approximately $13,984,000 in outstanding letters of credit, which correspondingly reduced the Company's availability under the line of credit. There was no outstanding balance on the WCLC as of March 31, 2016. The Company capitalized approximately $2,834,000 of debt financing costs related to the refinancing. These costs, together with approximately $339,000 of costs related to the retired debt, will be amortized to interest expense over the applicable terms of the loans. The unamortized balance of deferred financing costs related to the financing was approximately $2,178,000 at March 31, 2016. The Company recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $964,000 related to the refinancing for the six months ended March 31, 2015. The loss on extinguishment of debt is included in Other income (expense) in the Condensed Combined Consolidated Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The new credit facilities noted above are subject to various covenants including the following financial covenants: (i) minimum debt service coverage ratio of 1.10 to 1.00, (ii) tangible net worth of at least $160,000,000 increased annually by 10% of consolidated net income for the preceding year, or approximately $161,600,000 for the year ending September 30, 2016, (iii) minimum current ratio of 1.50 to 1.00, (iv) debt to total assets ratio not greater than .625 to 1.00, and, solely in the case of the WCLC, (v) a limit on capital expenditures of $30,000,000 per fiscal year. As of March 31, 2016, the Company was in compliance with all of the financial covenants. The credit facilities also include a Met Life term loan secured by real estate owned by Citree. This is a $5,000,000 credit facility that initially bore interest at 5.49% per annum. An initial advance of $500,000 was made at closing on March 4, 2014. The loan agreement was amended to provide for an interim advance of $2,000,000 on September 17, 2015, and the interest rate was adjusted to 5.30% per annum at the time of the interim advance. The final $2,500,000 advance was funded on April 27, 2016 and the interest rate was adjusted to 5.28%. The loan matures in February 2029. The unamortized balance of deferred financing costs related to this loan was approximately $55,000 at March 31, 2016. Silver Nip Citrus Debt Silver Nip Citrus has various loans payable to Prudential Mortgage Capital Company, LLC (“Prudential”) as described below. There are two fixed-rate term loans, with an original combined balance of $27,550,000, bearing interest at 5.35% per annum. Principal of $290,000 is payable quarterly, together with accrued interest. The Company may prepay up to $5,000,000 of principal without penalty. On February 15, 2015, Silver Nip Citrus made a prepayment of $750,000. The loans are collateralized by real estate in Collier, Hardee, Highlands, Martin, Osceola and Polk Counties, Florida. Silver Nip Citrus entered into two fixed rate term loans with Prudential to finance the acquisition of a 1,500 acre citrus grove on September 4, 2014. Each loan was in the original amount of $5,500,000. Principal of $55,000 per loan is payable quarterly, together with accrued interest. One loan bears interest at 3.85% per annum, while the other bears interest at 3.45% per annum. The note with an interest rate of 3.85% per annum is subject to adjustment on September 1, 2019, and every year thereafter until maturity. Both loans are collateralized by real estate in Charlotte County, Florida. Silver Nip Citrus had a $6,000,000 revolving line of credit with Prudential. This line of credit was paid in full and terminated on April 28, 2015. The unamortized balance of deferred financing costs related to the Silver Nip Citrus debt was approximately $365,000 at March 31, 2016. The Silver Nip Citrus facilities are subject to a financial debt covenant requiring a current ratio of at least 1.50 to 1.00, measured at the end of each fiscal year. Silver Nip Citrus was in compliance with this covenant as of June 30, 2015, the most recent measurement date. The Silver Nip Citrus facilities are personally guaranteed by George Brokaw, Remy Trafelet and Clayton Wilson. Modification of Credit Agreements During the six months ended March 31, 2015, Rabo agreed, subject to certain conditions, that the Company may loan Silver Nip Citrus up to $7,000,000 on a revolving basis for cash management purposes. These advances would be funded from either cash on hand or draws on the Company’s WCLC. Silver Nip Citrus has provided a $7,000,000 limited guaranty and security agreement granting Rabo a security interest in crops, accounts receivable, inventory and certain other assets. This modification required the amendment of various Prudential and Rabo loan documents and mortgages. Interest costs expensed and capitalized were as follows:
