(1) The Company has entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility, as amended (the "revolving credit facility"), with The Bank of Nova Scotia, as the lead arranger and administrative agent and other lenders. On June 3, 2019, the Company further amended its revolving credit facility to, among other things, allow the Company to designate certain of its subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries and to include LIBOR replacement provisions. Additionally, the borrowing base was reaffirmed at $1.4 billion, and the Company’s elected commitment amount remained at $1.0 billion.
As of June 30, 2019, $155.0 million was outstanding under the revolving credit facility and the total availability for future borrowings under this facility, after giving effect to an aggregate of $251.5 million letters of credit, was $593.5 million. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries have guaranteed the obligations of the Company under the revolving credit facility.
At June 30, 2019, amounts borrowed under the revolving credit facility bore interest at a weighted average rate of 3.93%.
The Company was in compliance with its financial covenants under the revolving credit facility at June 30, 2019.
