Credit Facility with a Lending Consortium Arranged by Truist

The Company maintains a revolving credit facility between the Company and its subsidiaries, including Standard Bearer as co-borrowers, and Truist Securities (Truist) (the Revolving Credit Facility). Borrowings are supported by a lending consortium arranged by Truist. On April 8, 2022, the Company and its subsidiaries, including Standard Bearer, entered into the Amended Credit Agreement, which amended the Revolving Credit Facility to increase the revolving line of credit from $350,000 to $600,000 in aggregate principal amount. The Amended Credit Agreement also extended the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility to April 8, 2027 and modified the reference rate from LIBOR to SOFR. The interest rates applicable to loans under the Amended Credit Facility are, at the Company's option, equal to either a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.25% per annum or SOFR plus a margin range from 1.25% to 2.25% per annum, based on the Consolidated Total Net Debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio (as defined in the agreement). In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries, including Standard Bearer, will pay a commitment fee on the unused portion of the commitments that will range from 0.20% to 0.40% per annum, depending on the Consolidated Total Net Debt to Consolidated EBITDA ratio. Except as set forth in the Amended Credit Facility, all other terms and conditions of the Credit Facility remained in full force and effect as described below. As part of the entry into the Amended Credit Agreement, deferred financing costs of $566 were written off and additional deferred financing costs of $3,197 were capitalized during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Borrowings made under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed, jointly and severally, by certain of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, and are secured by a pledge of stock of the Company's material operating subsidiaries as well as a first lien on substantially all of their personal property. The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary covenants that, among other things, restrict, subject to certain exceptions, the ability of the Company and its operating subsidiaries to grant liens on their assets, incur indebtedness, sell assets, make investments, engage in acquisitions, mergers or consolidations, amend certain material agreements and pay certain dividends and other restricted payments. Under the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company must comply with financial maintenance covenants to be tested quarterly, consisting of (i) a maximum consolidated total net debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio (which shall not be greater than 3.00:1.00; provided that if the aggregate consideration for approved acquisitions in a six months period is greater than $50,000, then the ratio can be increased at the election of the Company with notice to the administrative agent to 3.50:1.00 for the first fiscal quarter and the immediately following three fiscal quarters), and (ii) a minimum interest/rent coverage ratio (which cannot be less than 1.50:1.00). As of December 31, 2022, and January 30, 2023, there was no outstanding debt under the Revolving Credit Facility. The Company was in compliance with all loan covenants as of December 31, 2022.
Mortgage Loans and Promissory Notes

As of December 31, 2022, the Company's operating subsidiaries had $156,271 outstanding under the mortgage loans and notes, of which $3,883 is classified as short-term and the remaining $152,388 is classified as long-term. The Company was in compliance with all loan covenants as of December 31, 2022.

As of December 31, 2022, 23 of the Company's subsidiaries have mortgage loans insured with HUD in the aggregate amount of $153,488, which subjects these subsidiaries to HUD oversight and periodic inspections. The mortgage loans bear effective interest rates in a range of 3.1% to 4.2%, including fixed interest rates in a range of 2.4% to 3.3% per annum. In addition to the interest rate, we incur other fees for HUD placement, including but not limited to audit fees. Amounts borrowed under the mortgage loans may be prepaid, subject to prepayment fees based on the principal balance on the date of prepayment. For the majority of the loans, during the first three years, the prepayment fee is 10.0% and is reduced by 3.0% in the fourth year of the loan, and reduced by 1.0% per year for years five through ten of the loan. There is no prepayment penalty after year ten. The terms for all the mortgage loans are 25 to 35 years.

In addition to the HUD mortgage loans above, the Company has two promissory notes. The notes bear fixed interest rates of 6.3% and 5.3% per annum and the term of the notes are 10 months and 12 years, respectively. The 12 year note which was used for an acquisition is secured by the real property comprising the facility and the rent, issues and profits thereof, as well as all personal property used in the operation of the facility.
Future principal payments due under the long-term debt arrangements discussed above are as follows:

Based on Level 2, the carrying value of the Company's long-term debt is considered to approximate the fair value of such debt for all periods presented based upon the interest rates that the Company believes it can currently obtain for similar debt.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had approximately $6,710 of borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility pledged as collateral to secure outstanding letters of credit, which remained consistent from 2021.
