Long-Term Debt |
6.Long-Term Debt Our long-term debt consists of the following:
Senior Sustainability-Linked Notes Our 7.625% Senior Sustainability-Linked Notes (the “Notes”) are due April 1, 2026. The Notes are unsecured and effectively subordinated to the Credit Facility to the extent of the value of the collateral securing the Credit Facility (see below). The Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by our wholly-owned subsidiaries. Interest on the Notes is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year. We may redeem all or part of the Notes at any time at redemption prices ranging from 103.8125% through March 31, 2025 to 100% on or after April 1, 2025. If we undergo a change of control, we may be required to repurchase all or a portion of the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued interest. During 2023, we notified the trustee for the Notes that, for the year ended December 31, 2022, we had satisfied the Sustainability Performance Target (as defined in the indenture governing the Notes) in accordance with the requirements and procedures of the indenture. As a result, the interest rate on the Notes will remain 7.625% for the remainder of the term of the Notes. Credit Facility Prior to the October amendment (discussed further below), our amended and restated credit agreement (as it may be amended and/or restated from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) provided for, among other things, (i) commitments of $200.0 million, (ii) a maturity date of April 1, 2025, (iii) loans made under our revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) and unused commitment fees to be determined based on a leverage ratio ranging from 3.00:1.00 to 4.50:1.00, (iv) an accordion feature permitting the Company to seek an increase of the Credit Facility of up to $75.0 million, subject to certain conditions, (v) a leverage ratio covenant comprising a maximum total funded debt to EBITDA ratio, net of $40.0 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents if the facility is drawn, and net of all unrestricted cash and cash equivalents if the facility is undrawn, (vi) a leverage ratio covenant test level of 4.50 to 1.00 and (vii) a secured leverage covenant of 2.50 to 1.00. In May 2023, the Credit Agreement was amended to, among other things, transition the loans under the Credit Facility to be made at SOFR instead of LIBOR and to allow financial reporting to be satisfied based on delivery of the consolidated financial statements of Aris Water Solutions, Inc., so long as it remains a passive holding company, instead of Solaris Midstream Holdings, LLC. Following the May 2023 amendments, and prior to the October 2023 amendments, the Credit Facility provided for, at our option:
In addition, the Credit Facility provided for commitment fee rates ranging from 37.5 basis points to 50.0 basis points, depending upon our leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2023, we had $150 thousand in letters of credit outstanding and $165.9 million in revolving commitments available. In October 2023, the Credit Agreement was amended and restated to provide for, among other things, (i) commitments of $350.0 million, (ii) a maturity date of October 12, 2027, with a springing maturity of 91 days ahead of the Notes’ due date of April 1, 2026 in the event the Notes are voluntarily redeemed, repurchased, refinanced or otherwise retired in full prior to such springing maturity date, (iii) loans made under the Credit Facility and unused commitment fees to be determined based on a leverage ratio ranging from 3.00:1.00 to 4.50:1.00, (iv) an accordion feature permitting the Company to seek an increase of the Credit Facility of up to $150.0 million, subject to certain conditions, (v) a leverage ratio covenant which comprises a maximum total funded debt to EBITDA ratio, net of $40.0 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents if the facility is drawn, and net of all unrestricted cash and cash equivalents if the facility is undrawn, (vi) a leverage ratio covenant test level which is currently 4.50 to 1.00 and (vii) a secured leverage covenant of 2.50 to 1.00. The Credit Facility provides for, at our option:
