Credit Facilities
On December 13, 2018, the Company through certain of its subsidiaries entered into two new senior secured revolving credit facilities with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent, and the various lenders party thereto. The credit facilities are comprised of two loan agreements, a representation-based loan agreement (the “Rep-Based Loan Agreement") and an approval-based loan agreement (the “Approval-Based Loan Agreement,” and, together with the Rep-Based Loan Agreement, the “Loan Agreements”). The Loan Agreements provide (a) in the case of the Rep-Based Loan Agreement, for a senior secured revolving limited-recourse credit facility in the principal amount of $250 million and (b) in the case of the Approval-Based Loan Agreement, for a senior secured revolving recourse credit facility in the principal amount of $200 million. The maturity of each of the Loan Agreements is July 19, 2023. Loans under the Rep-Based Loan Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 1.40% or 1.85% (depending on the type of collateral) or, in certain circumstances, the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.40% or 0.85% (depending on the type of collateral) and loans under the Approval-Based Loan Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to one-month LIBOR plus 1.50% or 2.00% (depending on the type of collateral) or, under certain circumstances, the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% or 1.00% (depending on the type of collateral). The Company, together with its subsidiary, Hannon Armstrong Capital, LLC, guaranteed the obligations of the borrowers under each of the Loan Agreements pursuant to (i) a Limited Guaranty (Rep-Based) and (ii) a Guaranty (Approval-Based) (together, the "Guaranty Agreements").
Inclusion of any financings of the Company in the borrowing base as collateral under the Rep-Based Loan Agreement will be subject to the Company making certain agreed upon representations and warranties, the accuracy of such which will be guaranteed under the Limited Guaranty (Rep-Based). Payment by the borrowers of certain amounts relating to any such financing included in the borrowing base of the Rep-Based Loan Agreement, which amounts are guaranteed under the Limited Guaranty (Rep-Based), is the exclusive remedy with respect to any breach of such representations and warranties under the Rep-Based Loan Agreement. Inclusion of any financings of the Company in the borrowing base as collateral under the Approval-Based Loan Agreement will be subject to the approval of a super majority of the lenders. The amount eligible to be drawn under the facilities is based on a discount to the value of each included investment based upon the type of collateral or an applicable valuation percentage. The sum of included financings after taking into account the applicable valuation percentages and any changes in the valuation of the financings in accordance with the Loan Agreements determines the borrowing capacity, subject to the overall facility limits described above.
Administrative fees are payable annually to the administrative agent under each of the Loan Agreements and letter agreements with the administrative agent. Also, under the Rep-Based Loan Agreement, the borrowers will pay to the administrative agent on each monthly payment date, for the benefit of the lenders, certain availability fees for the Rep-Based Loan Agreement equal to 0.60%, divided by 365 or 366, as applicable, multiplied by the excess of the available total commitments under the Rep-Based Loan Agreement over the actual amount borrowed under the Rep-Based Loan Agreement.
Each Loan Agreement contains terms, conditions, covenants, and representations and warranties that are customary and typical for a transaction of this nature. The Loan Agreements contain various affirmative and negative covenants, including maintenance of an interest coverage ratio and limitations on the incurrence of liens and indebtedness, investments, payments,
fundamental organizational changes, dispositions, issuance of stock, changes in the nature of business, transactions with affiliates and use of proceeds.
Each Loan Agreement also includes customary events of default, including a cross-default provision applicable to debt obligations of the guarantors. The occurrence of an event of default may result in termination of the Loan Agreements and acceleration of amounts due under the Loan Agreements.
The Company has used a portion of the proceeds from the new credit facilities to repay their Existing Credit Facilities (as defined below) in full.
The foregoing descriptions of the Loan Agreements and Guaranty Agreements are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Loan Agreements and Guaranty Agreements, which the Company intends to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission as exhibits to a subsequent report.
