Credit Agreement and Security Agreement of 2018 On August 8, 2018, the Company entered into a new asset-based Credit Agreement ("Credit Agreement") and a Security Agreement (“Security Agreement”) with a new lender. The new Credit Agreement matures on August 6, 2021 and is comprised of a senior secured revolving credit facility with a maximum borrowing of $30,000. The Credit Agreement also has an accordion feature, which allows the Company to increase maximum borrowings by up to $10,000 upon consent of the existing lender or upon additional lenders joining the Credit Agreement. The terms of the Credit Agreement contain both a lock box arrangement and subjective acceleration clause. As a result, the amount outstanding on the revolving credit facility is classified as a short-term liability and the availability at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 was $9,134 and $8,437, respectively. The proceeds from the Credit Agreement were used to repay the indebtedness and extinguishment of the Company's November 9, 2016 Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement ("2016 Credit Agreement"), for working capital purposes, for general corporate purposes and to pay fees and expenses incurred in connections with entering into the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants and events of defaults. As set forth in the Credit Agreement, the Company is required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio ("FCCR") of 1.1:1.0 any time the availability is equal to or less than 12.5% of the revolving commitment. In the event of a default, the Company may not be able to access the revolver, which could impact the ability to fund working capital needs, capital expenditures and invest in new business opportunities. See discussion below under the First Amendment (the "First Amendment") to the Credit Agreement and Security Agreement discussion which revises the provision related to the FCCR. On November 5, 2018, the Company entered into the First Amendment (the "First Amendment") to the Credit Agreement and Security Agreement with its lender. The First Amendment retroactively amended certain definitions and provisions effective as of the original closing date to clarify the parties original understanding regarding, among other things: (i) the permitted liens securing certain indebtedness of the Company to the City of Cleveland (noted as other debt within the above debt table), (ii) the timeframes for which certain post-closing requirements would be satisfied, and (iii) the conditions under which the Company will be required to meet the minimum FCCR, which is as follows: the borrowers will not permit the FCCR to be less than: (a) 1.1 to 1.0 as of August 31, 2018 or as of September 30, 2018; or (b) 1.1 to 1.0 at any month end on or after October 31, 2018; provided that the FCCR will not be tested under this clause (b) unless (i) a Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) availability was less than or equal to 12.5% of the Revolving Commitment for three or more business days in any consecutive 30 day period (with the FCCR calculated as of the end of the month for which the lender has most recently received financial statements). SIFCO met the FCCR requirements at August 31, 2018, after obtaining a waiver, and the FCCR requirements at September 30, 2018. The availability was greater than the 12.5% of the Revolving Commitment as of March 31, 2019, and, as such, FCCR calculation was not required. On December 17, 2018, the Company entered into an Export Credit Agreement (the “Export Credit Agreement”) with its Lender. Pursuant to the terms of the Export Credit Agreement, the Lender will lend amounts to the Company on foreign receivables that are guaranteed by the Export-Import Bank of the United States of America. The Export Credit Agreement provides for a revolving commitment of $5,000, therefore increasing the maximum borrowing of the revolver to $35,000. The borrowings under the Export Credit Agreement will bear interest at (depending on the type of borrowing) the CBFR or LIBOR Rate, plus the applicable margin as set forth in the Export Credit Agreement. The maturity date under the Export Credit Agreement is August 6, 2021 (or such earlier date as the revolving commitments under the Export Credit Agreement are reduced to zero or otherwise terminated). The Export Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and events of default, including, without limitation, the affirmative covenants under the Company’s Credit Agreement dated August 8, 2018, as amended with the Lender. In connection with entering into the Export Credit Agreement, the Company also entered into the Second Amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to its Credit Agreement. The Second Amendment amends certain definitions and provisions to provide for the Company’s entrance into the Export Credit Agreement. On March 29, 2019, the Company entered into a Third Amendment with its Lender. This amendment extends the timeframes for when certain post-closing requirements would be satisfied as of March 31, 2019. Amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all the assets of the Company and its U.S. subsidiaries and a pledge of 66.67% of the stock of its first-tier non-U.S. subsidiaries. Borrowings will bear interest at the lender's established domestic rate or LIBOR, plus the applicable margin as set forth in the Credit Agreement. The revolver has a rate based on LIBOR plus 1.75% spread, which was 4.24% and 3.85% at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively and the Export Credit Agreement has a rate based on LIBOR plus 1.25% spread, which was 3.74% at March 31, 2019. The Company also has a commitment fee of 0.25% under the Credit Agreement to be incurred on the unused balance of the revolver. Foreign subsidiary borrowings Foreign debt consists of:
| March 31, 2019 |  | September 30, 2018
Term loan | $ | 2,745 |  |  | $ | 3,548 |
Short-term borrowings | 4,145 |  |  | 3,472 |
Factor | 334 |  |  | 929 |
Total debt | $ | 7,224 |  |  | $ | 7,949 |
Less – current maturities | (5,779 | ) |  | (5,822 | )
Total long-term debt | $ | 1,445 |  |  | $ | 2,127 |
Receivables pledged as collateral | $ | 878 |  |  | $ | 2,007 |
Interest rates on foreign borrowings are based on Euribor rates which range from 1.0% to 4.0%. In December 2018, the Company entered into a six month short-term debt arrangement of $1,137 to be used for working capital purpose. The factoring programs are uncommitted, whereby the Company offers receivables for sale to an unaffiliated financial institution, which are then subject to acceptance by the unaffiliated financial institution. Following the sale and transfer of the receivables to the unaffiliated financial institution, the receivables are not isolated from the Company, and effective control of the receivables is not passed to the unaffiliated financial institution, which does not have the right to pledge or sell the receivables. The Company accounts for the pledge of receivables under this agreement as short-term debt and continues to carry the receivables on its consolidated condensed balance sheets. Debt issuance costs The Company incurred debt issuance costs as it pertains to the Credit Agreement in the amount of $212, and during the six months of fiscal 2019, additional costs of $75 were incurred that related to the First and Second Amendment, of which are included in the consolidated condensed balance sheets as a deferred charge in other current assets, net of amortization of $47 and $12 at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018, respectively.
