Credit Agreement and Security Agreement of 2018 On August 8, 2018, the Company entered into an asset-based Credit Agreement ("Credit Agreement") and a Security Agreement (“Security Agreement”) with its current lender (the "Lender"). The 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 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. The proceeds from the Credit Agreement were used to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement and continue to be used for working capital purposes and general corporate purposes. 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 Fourth Amendment to the Credit Agreement and Security Agreement, which revises the provision related to availability and 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. 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 Prime 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 extended the time frame for when certain post-closing requirements would be satisfied by March 31, 2019 to June 30, 2019. These post-closing requirements were completed by June 30, 2019. On September 20, 2019, the Company entered into a Fourth Amendment with its Lender. As previously stated, the Company is subject to certain customary loan covenants if availability is less than or equal to 12.5% of the revolving commitment for three or more business days in any consecutive 30 day period; however, the Fourth Amendment to the Credit Agreement resulted in the reduction of its availability from 12.5% of the revolving commitment to 10% of the lesser of collateral or total revolving commitment, with a $2,000 floor through June 30, 2020. In determining the availability, the Lender looks at the total collateral. If the total collateral is less than $20,000, then the $2,000 floor will apply; however, if the total collateral is greater than or equal to $20,000, but less than the $35,000 (revolving commitment); then 10% of the total collateral is used, but if the collateral exceeds $35,000, then 10% of the total commitment is used as lending will not exceed the $35,000 revolving commitment unless the accordion feature is enacted. Commencing July 1, 2020, the terms reverted back to the requirements in place prior to the Fourth Amendment. The total collateral at June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019 was $25,603 and $24,000, respectively and the revolving commitment was $35,000 for both periods. The measurement at 10% was $2,560 and $2,400, respectively. Total availability at June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019 was $13,492 and $7,709, respectively, which exceed both the collateral and total commitment threshold. If availability had fallen short, the Company would be required to meet the FCCR covenant, which must not be less than 1.1 to 1.0. Because the availability was greater than the 10.0% of the revolving commitment as of June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, the FCCR calculation was not required. 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 1.50%, which was 1.7% at June 30, 2020 and 3.6% at September 30, 2019, and the Export Credit Agreement has a rate based on LIBOR plus 1.00% spread at June 30, 2020 and 1.25% spread at September 30, 2019, which was 1.2% and 3.4% at June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively. 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:
| June 30, 2020 |  | September 30, 2019
Term loan | $ | 1,890 |  |  | $ | 2,318 |
Short-term borrowings | 3,071 |  |  | 3,744 |
Factor | 198 |  |  | 530 |
Total debt | $ | 5,159 |  |  | $ | 6,592 |
Less – current maturities | (4,323 | ) |  | (5,501 | )
Total long-term debt | $ | 836 |  |  | $ | 1,091 |
Receivables pledged as collateral | $ | 1,322 |  |  | $ | 672 |
Interest rates on foreign borrowings are based on Euribor rates which range from 1.0% to 4.2%. In December 2018, the Company entered into a six month short-term debt arrangement of $1,137 to be used for working capital purposes at Maniago, which was subsequently repaid in fiscal 2019. In September 2019, Maniago modified its repayment schedule for one tranche of its existing term debt by reducing its next two payments by approximately $96 and extending the loan for an additional six months in which the final payment will be made at that time (to be paid by October 2020). The Company continues to have discussions with its lenders and other potential partners to refinance certain debt obligations at its Maniago location to provide Maniago with sufficient future liquidity. If Maniago is unsuccessful in obtaining additional financing, it may experience challenges in meeting certain current loan obligations. This foreign debt is collateralized by Maniago’s assets. The Company has not pledged any assets as collateral or guaranteed Maniago’s debt. The consolidated condensed financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effect on the recoverability and classification of the Maniago assets or the amounts and classifications of the Maniago liabilities that may result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Management believes that the actions presently being taken to obtain additional funding and implement its strategic plan will provide adequate liquidity to finance its Maniago operations. The Company factors receivables from one of its customers. 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 incurred additional costs in fiscal 2019 of $75 related to the First and Second Amendments, which is included in the consolidated condensed balance sheets as a deferred charge in other current assets, net of amortization of $180 and $106 at June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively. Other In response to the economic uncertainty created by the COVID-19 pandemic, as described above in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, and taking into consideration the Company’s market capitalization, status as a smaller reporting company, and uncertainties and volatility in, and disruptions to, the capital markets, as well as the terms of the Company’s Credit Agreement, the Company applied for and received funds under Paycheck Protection Program (or "PPP") of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act"). On April 10, 2020, the Company entered into an unsecured promissory note under the Paycheck Protection Program (the “PPP Loan”). The PPP Loan to the Company was made through JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., a national banking association and the Company’s existing lender. The note has an aggregate principal amount of approximately $5,025 and a two year term. The interest rate on the PPP Loan is 0.98%, which shall be deferred for the first six months of the term of the loan. The promissory note evidencing the PPP Loan contains customary events of default relating to, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, or provisions of the promissory note. The occurrence of an event of default may result in the repayment of all amounts outstanding, collection of all amounts owing from the Company, and/or filing suit and obtaining judgment against the Company. The loan proceeds were received on April 10, 2020 and were used for payroll, interest on mortgage obligations, rents on leases and utility payments. As of June, 30, 2020, the Company repaid $261 proceeds back to its lender, leaving a remaining balance of $4,764 , of which $2,382 will be paid in the next twelve months and the remaining $2,382 in the following twelve months after. Under the terms of the CARES Act, PPP Loan recipients can apply for and potentially be granted forgiveness for all or a portion of loans granted under the PPP. Such forgiveness will be determined, subject to limitations, based on the use of loan proceeds for payroll costs and mortgage interest, rent or utility costs and the maintenance of employee and compensation levels. Although the Company intends to file for forgiveness, no assurance is provided that the Company will obtain forgiveness of the PPP Loan in whole or in part. As of June 30, 2020, the Company is waiting for further guidance regarding how to apply for the forgiveness for all or a portion of the PPP loan.
