As of September 30, 2023, the weighted average interest rate on our revolving credit agreements was 7.11%. Wells Fargo Credit Agreement On July 18, 2022, ADTRAN Holdings, Inc. and ADTRAN, Inc., as the borrower, entered into a credit agreement with a syndicate of banks, including Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (“Administrative Agent”), and the other lenders named therein (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement initially allowed for borrowings of up to $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount, but the permitted borrowings increased to up to $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount upon the DPLTA becoming effective on January 16, 2023. On August 9, 2023, (the "First Amendment Effective Date") the Company, its wholly-owned direct subsidiary, ADTRAN, Inc., the lenders party thereto and the Administrative Agent entered into a First Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment” and together with the Credit Agreement, the "Credit Facility"). The First Amendment, provides for, among other things, a new $50.0 million delayed draw term loan (“DDTL”), which is available for borrowing in the event of the purchase by the Company of at least sixty percent (60.0%) of the outstanding shares of Adtran Networks that were not owned by the Company as of the First Amendment Effective Date (such event, a “Springing Covenant Event”). Proceeds of the DDTL may only be used to repurchase minority shares of Adtran Networks. The DDTL remains available for borrowing from the occurrence of a Springing Covenant Event through the period that is three consecutive fiscal quarters thereafter. The First Amendment further added additional financial flexibility by amending the $30.0 million external debt capped basket to be an unlimited amount and permitting, subject to certain requirements, the incurrence of convertible indebtedness by the Company in an aggregate principal amount of up to $172.5 million. Any such convertible indebtedness must be incurred in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants in the Credit Agreement, unsecured and otherwise rank junior to borrowings under the Credit Agreement, and have a stated maturity date of at least 91 days after the latest scheduled maturity date of loans and commitments under the Credit Agreement. Net cash proceeds from any incurrence of convertible indebtedness must be used to repurchase minority shares of Adtran Networks or repay revolver borrowings under the Credit Agreement. As of September 30, 2023, ADTRAN, Inc.’s borrowings under the revolving line of credit were $200.0 million. As of September 30, 2023, there were no borrowings under the DDTL. The Credit Facility matures in July 2027; however, the Company has an option to request extensions subject to customary conditions. In addition, we may issue up to $25.0 million in letters of credit against our $400.0 million total facility. As of September 30, 2023, we had a total of $2.2 million in letters of credit under ADTRAN, Inc. outstanding against our eligible borrowings, leaving a net amount of $197.8 million available for future borrowings. Any future credit extensions under the Credit Agreement are subject to customary conditions precedent. The proceeds of any loans are expected to be used for general corporate purposes and to pay a portion of the Exchange Offer consideration. Revolving Line of Credit Interest Rate All U.S. borrowings under the revolving line of credit (other than swingline loans, which bear interest at the Base Rate (as defined below)) bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate per annum equal to (A)(i) the highest of (a) the federal funds rate (i.e., for any day, the rate per annum equal to the weighted average of the rates on overnight federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System, as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the business day next succeeding such day) plus ½ of 1.0%, (b) the prime commercial lending rate of the Administrative Agent, as established from time to time at its principal U.S. office (which such rate is an index or base rate and will not necessarily be its lowest or best rate charged to its customers or other banks), and (c) the daily Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for a one-month tenor plus 1.0%, plus (ii) the applicable rate, ranging from 0.65% to 1.65% (the “Base Rate”), or (B) the sum of the Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus the applicable rate, ranging from 1.65% to 2.65%, provided that such sum is subject to a 0.0% floor (such loans utilizing this interest rate, “SOFR Loans”). All E.U. borrowings under the Credit Agreement (other than swingline loans) bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the Euro Interbank Offered Rate as administered by the European Money Markets Institute (or a comparable or successor administrator approved by the Administrative Agent) plus the applicable rate, ranging from 1.75% to 2.75%, provided that such sum is subject to a 0.0% floor (such loans utilizing this interest rate, “EURIBOR Loans”). The applicable rate is based on the consolidated net leverage ratio of the Company and its subsidiaries as determined pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement. Default interest is 2.0% per annum in excess of the rate otherwise applicable in the case of any overdue principal or any other overdue amount. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the Credit Agreement, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the Credit Agreement in respect of unutilized revolving loan commitments and an additional commitment ticking fee at a rate ranging from 0.20% to 0.25% per annum on the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit commitment of each lender until the earliest of (i) the date of the Senior Credit Facilities Increase, (ii) the Company’s voluntary termination of the credit facility commitment, and (iii) December 31, 2023. The Company is also required to pay a participation fee to the Administrative Agent for the account of each lender with respect to the Company’s participation in letters of credit at the then applicable rate for SOFR Loans. DDTL Interest Rate All U.S. borrowings under the DDTL bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate per annum equal to (A)(i) the highest of (a) the federal funds rate (i.e., for any day, the rate per annum equal to the weighted average of the rates on overnight federal funds transactions with members of the Federal Reserve System, as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on the business day next succeeding such day) plus ½ of 1.0%, (b) the prime commercial lending rate of the Administrative Agent, as established from time to time at its principal U.S. office (which such rate is an index or base rate and will not necessarily be its lowest or best rate charged to its customers or other banks), and (c) the sum of the Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus the applicable rate, ranging from 1.9% to 2.9%, provided that such sum is subject to a 0.0% floor (such loans utilizing this interest rate, “SOFR Loans”) or (B) the sum of the daily Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for a one-month tenor plus 1.0%, plus (ii) the applicable rate, ranging from 0.9% to 1.9%. The applicable rate is based on the consolidated net leverage ratio of the Company and its subsidiaries as determined pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement. Default interest is 2.0% per annum in excess of the rate otherwise applicable in the case of any overdue principal or any other overdue amount. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the DDTL loan, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee to the lenders under the Credit Agreement in respect of unutilized DDTL commitments at a rate of 0.25% per annum on the daily unused portion of the aggregate DDTL commitment until the earliest of (i) the delayed draw funding date, (ii) the delayed draw funding deadline and (iii) the termination in full of the DDTL commitments. Covenants Under the Credit Agreement The First Amendment permits the Company to prepay any or all of the outstanding loans or to reduce the commitments under the First Amendment without incurring premiums or penalties (except breakage costs with respect to SOFR Loans and EURIBOR Loans). The First Amendment contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including incurrence covenants and certain other limitations on the ability of the Company and the Company’s subsidiaries to incur additional debt, guarantee other obligations, grant liens on assets, make investments, dispose of assets, pay dividends or other payments on capital stock, make restricted payments, engage in mergers or consolidations, engage in transactions with affiliates, modify its organizational documents, and enter into certain restrictive agreements. It also contains customary events of default (subject to customary cure periods and materiality thresholds). The First Amendment further included the following revised financial covenants; (i) the addition of an automatic step up in the consolidated total net leverage ratio to 5.00:1.00 from 3.25:1.00 upon the occurrence of a Springing Covenant Event and continuing for the fiscal quarter in which the Springing Covenant Event occurs and the next three consecutive fiscal quarters thereafter (such period, a “Springing Covenant Period”) and (ii) the addition of a consolidated senior secured net leverage ratio covenant to be tested quarterly during a Springing Covenant Period and sized at 4.00:1.00 during the first quarter ending after a Springing Covenant Event, 3.75:1.00 during the second quarter ending after a Springing Covenant Event and 3.50:1.00 during the third and fourth quarters ending after a Springing Covenant Event. Further, if the Company or any of its subsidiaries incurs unsecured indebtedness under the uncapped general indebtedness basket or permitted convertible indebtedness basket of the Credit Agreement in excess of $50.0 million in connection with a transaction that is a Springing Covenant Event or during a Springing Covenant Period, then the maximum consolidated senior secured net leverage ratio shall be, or shall automatically step down to, 3.50:1.00 at the time of such incurrence. The First Amendment also requires that the consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the First Amendment) of the Company and its subsidiaries tested on the last day of each fiscal quarter not fall below 3.00 to 1.00.
