| Debt and Lease Obligations | Debt and Lease Obligations On June 30, 2023 (the “Closing Date”), through Hostess Brands, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary, the Company entered into a senior secured first lien credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which included a $985 million term loan (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan bears interest, at the Company’s option, at a variable rate per annum equal to either (x) the Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“Term SOFR”) (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus an applicable margin of 2.50% or (y) an alternative base rate (“ABR”) plus an applicable margin of 1.50%. The Credit Agreement is secured on a first priority basis on substantially all of the Company’s assets and is guaranteed by certain of its subsidiaries. It is prepayable without premium or penalty at any time, except for prepayment from the proceeds of a similar term loan within six months after the Closing Date, which requires a 1% premium. The principal shall be paid at 1% of the aggregate principal amount ($9.85 million) per year, with the balance due at maturity on June 30, 2030. The proceeds from the Term Loan were used to repay, in full, the $983.2 million principal balance on the prior term loan and fund a portion of the loan fees. The Term Loan consists of a syndicate of lenders which for accounting purposes are evaluated as individual lenders. For certain lenders, a portion of the refinancing was considered a modification of the prior term loan and related fees paid to third parties of $6.8 million were expensed as costs of the modification. The total loss on the modification and extinguishment of debt was $7.5 million, which includes $0.7 million of unamortized debt premium and issuance costs. Fees of $10.8 million associated with the new borrowings were capitalized. Of the total $985.0 million Term Loan, there was $336.7 million of cash proceeds attributed to new syndicate members or existing members increasing their positions. Of the total $983.2 million prior term loan, $334.9 million of cash payments were attributed to exiting syndicate members or members decreasing their positions. A summary of the carrying value of the debt and lease obligations are as follows:
At September 30, 2023, minimum term loan repayments under the senior secured first lien credit agreement are due as follows:
Including the impact of the interest rate swap contracts, at September 30, 2023, the Company's aggregate term loans had an effective interest rate of 5.0%. Also included in the Credit Agreement is a $200 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which replaced the $100 million revolving credit facility previously outstanding. Interest on the Revolving Credit Facility accrues at Term SOFR plus 2.25% on the outstanding balance, with all principal due in June 2028. At September 30, 2023, there was no amount drawn on the Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility contains certain restrictive financial covenants. As of September 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants. Leases The Company has entered into operating leases for certain properties that expire at various times through 2030. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception.
