Long-term Debt
On August 31, 2016, the Company amended its Credit Agreement with its bank to create a new credit facility in the form of an asset-based revolving line of credit (the "Line") in the amount of $45 million. The Line was used to refinance and consolidate all previous debt agreements. Interest on the Line was calculated using the One Month LIBOR Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus a pre-defined spread. Borrowings under the Line were limited to an amount equal to a Borrowing Base calculation (as defined in the Credit Agreement) that includes eligible accounts receivable and inventory.
Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Company was required to pledge all of its tangible and intangible assets, including the stock and membership interests of its subsidiaries. In the Credit Agreement, the Company's bank agreed to release its liens on the real estate properties covered by the Purchase and Sale Agreement with Store Funding, as described in Note 10.
On October 30, 2017, the Company amended its Credit Agreement with its bank to increase the limit of the Line by $20 million to a maximum of $65 million and extended the maturity date. None of the other provisions of the Credit Agreement were changed as a result of this amendment.
On June 29, 2018, the Company amended its Credit Agreement with its bank to increase the limit of the Line by $15 million to a maximum of $80 million. As a result of the amendment, the interest rate on the Line is now calculated using One Month LIBOR plus a spread of 1.65 percent. None of the other provisions of the Credit Agreement were changed as a result of this amendment.
On December 20, 2018, the Company amended its Credit Agreement with its bank to refinance and increase its Line from $80 million to $100 million and to create a new 5-year term loan in the principal amount of $20 million (the “Term Loan”). The Term Loan was used to finance the American Stainless acquisition (see Note 15). The Term Loan’s maturity date is February 1, 2024 and shall be repaid in 60 consecutive monthly installments. Interest on the Term Loan is calculated using the One Month LIBOR Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), plus 1.90 percent. The Line will be used for working capital needs and as a source for funding future acquisitions. The maturity date has been extended to December 20, 2021. Interest on the Line remains unchanged and is calculated using the One Month LIBOR Rate, plus 1.65 percent. Borrowings under the Line are limited to an amount equal to a Borrowing Base calculation that includes eligible accounts receivable and inventory.
Covenants under the Credit Agreement include maintaining a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, maintaining a minimum tangible net worth, and a limitation on the Company’s maximum amount of capital expenditures per year, which is in line with currently projected needs. The Company evaluated this transaction and determined the restructuring should be accounted for as a debt modification. The Company incurred lender and third-party costs associated with the debt restructuring that were capitalized on the balance sheet in non-current assets. At December 31, 2019, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.
The Line interest rate was 3.50 percent and 4.19 percent at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Additionally, the Company is required to pay a fee equal to 0.15 percent on the average daily unused amount of the Line on a quarterly basis. As of December 31, 2019, the amount available for borrowing under the Line was $72.6 million of which $59.2 million was borrowed, leaving $13.4 million of availability. Average Line borrowings outstanding during fiscal 2019 and 2018 were $69.1 million and $49.0 million with weighted average interest rates of 5.52 percent and 4.51 percent, respectively.
The term loan interest rate was 3.69 percent at December 31, 2019. As of December 31, 2019, the Company had outstanding borrowings against the term loan of $16.3 million.
The Company made interest payments on all credit facilities of $3.5 million in 2019, $1.7 million in 2018 and $0.9 million in 2017.
Principal payments on long-term debt during the next five fiscal years and thereafter are as follows (in thousands):
