Agreements with Cargill Financial

In September 2021, the Company and Cargill Financial entered into (a) a credit agreement (the "Original Senior Credit Agreement") for an up to $150,000 thousand multiple-advance term loan (the "Senior Facility") and (b) a subordinated credit agreement (the "Original Subordinated Credit Agreement" and, together with the Original Senior Credit Agreement, the "Original Credit Agreements") for an up to $50,000 thousand multiple-advance subordinated term loan (the "Subordinated Facility" and, together with the Senior Facility, the "Original Facilities"). On March 14, 2022, the Company and Cargill Financial amended the Original Credit Agreements and the Original Facilities, as described in Note 13, Subsequent Events.
The interest rate on the Subordinated Facility is 10.5% per annum, with accrued interest on the agreement paid quarterly in arrears on the last business day of each calendar quarter, commencing the last business day of the calendar quarter ending December 31, 2022, and on the maturity date September 3, 2028. A total of $16,293 thousand was outstanding on the Subordinated Facility as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
The interest rate on the Senior Facility is equal to LIBOR plus the Applicable Margin (which varies between 5.5% to 6.5% depending on the Senior Facility net leverage ratio). The maturity date of the Senior Facility will be on September 3, 2028. There were no amounts outstanding on this loan as of March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
As part of the Original Credit Agreements, the Company is required to have an Interest Reserve Account. The Original Credit Agreements also require the Company to be in compliance with certain financial covenants, including specified debt coverage, net leverage, and interest coverage ratios. Additional covenants and other restrictions exist that limit the Company’s ability, among other things, to undergo a merger or consolidation, sell certain assets, create liens, guarantee certain obligations of third parties, make certain investments or acquisitions, and declare dividends or make distributions. In accordance with the Original Credit Agreements, budgets and timelines for CEA facilities also have to be approved by Cargill Financial and the Company is required to report ongoing CEA facility construction costs. The credit facility is secured with a first-priority lien against substantially all of the assets of the Company, including its intellectual property.
The Original Credit Agreements have an unused revolving line commitment fee in an amount of 125 basis points per annum of the unused portion of the Original Credit Agreements.
The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants as of March 31, 2022.
