Revolving credit facility
On July 13, 2018, we entered into a credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., PNC Bank, N.A., KeyBank, N.A. and HSBC Bank USA, N.A. (“Revolving Credit Facility”). The agreement provides for a revolving line of credit of up to $300 million with an option, subject to lender approval, to increase the amount to $450 million, and matures in five years. At December 30, 2018, $80.0 million was utilized as a draw on the facility and $6.9 million was utilized by outstanding standby letters of credit, leaving $213.1 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility for additional borrowings.
Under the terms of the agreement, we pay a variable rate of interest on funds borrowed based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus an applicable spread between 1.25% and 2.50%. Alternatively, at our option, we may pay interest based on a base rate plus an applicable spread between 0.25% and 1.50%. The applicable spread is determined by the consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreement. The base rate is the greater of the prime rate (as announced by Bank of America), the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, or the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%. At December 30, 2018, the applicable spread on LIBOR was 1.50% and the weighted average index rate was 2.46%, resulting in a weighted average interest rate of 3.96%.
A commitment fee between 0.250% and 0.375% is applied against the Revolving Credit Facility’s unused borrowing capacity, with the specific rate determined by the consolidated leverage ratio, as defined in the credit agreement. Letters of credit are priced at a margin between 1.00% and 2.25%, plus a fronting fee of 0.50%. Obligations under the agreement are guaranteed by TrueBlue and material U.S. domestic subsidiaries, and are secured by substantially all of the assets of TrueBlue and material U.S. domestic subsidiaries. The agreement contains customary representations and warranties, events of default, and affirmative and negative covenants, including, among others, financial covenants based on our leverage and fixed charge coverage ratios, as defined in the credit agreement. We are currently in compliance with all covenants related to the Revolving Credit Facility.
Term loan agreement
On June 25, 2018, we pre-paid in full our outstanding obligations of approximately $22.0 million with Synovus Bank, terminating all commitments under this term loan (the “Term Loan”) dated February 4, 2013 (as subsequently amended). We did not incur any early termination penalties in connection with the termination of the Term Loan.
