On August 2, 2023, Hallador Energy Company (the "Company") executed an amendment to its credit agreement with PNC Bank National Association, as administrative agent for its lenders. The primary purpose of this amendment was to (i) convert $65 million of the outstanding funded debt into a new term loan with a maturity of March 31, 2026, and (ii) enter into a revolver of $75 million with a maturity of July 31, 2026. The term debt amortization is 5% each quarter for the remainder of 2023, increasing to 10% each quarter for the remainder of the term. The Maximum Leverage Ratio allowed for the duration of the agreement is 2.25X, and the Debt Service Coverage Ratio for the duration of the agreement is 1.25X. The interest rate on the debt ranges from SOFR plus 4.00% to SOFR plus 5.00%, depending on the leverage ratio. The maximum annual capital expenditures allowed for the duration of the agreement have been raised to $100 million, permitted capital lease or purchase money security interests have been authorized up to $25 million, and unsecured debt issuance up to $50 million has been authorized.
A copy of the credit agreement amendment will be filed as an exhibit to our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.
