CREDIT FACILITIES
On December 20, 2012, Pinedale LP closed on a $70 million secured term credit facility with KeyBank serving as a lender and as administrative agent on behalf of other lenders participating in the credit facility. Funding of the credit facility was conditioned on our contribution of the proceeds of the stock issuance to Pinedale LP and the receipt by Pinedale LP of the $30 million co-investment funds from Prudential. Outstanding balances under the credit facility will generally accrue interest at a variable annual rate equal to LIBOR plus 3.25 percent (3.40 percent as of March 31, 2014). The credit facility will remain in effect through December 2015, with an option to extend through December 2016. The credit facility is secured by the Pinedale LGS. Pinedale LP is obligated to pay all accrued interest quarterly and is further obligated to make monthly principal payments, beginning March 7, 2014, in the amount of $294 thousand or 0.42 percent of the principal balance as of March 1, 2014. Principal payment of $2.9 million and $3.5 million are required in 2014 and 2015, respectively. The registrant has provided to KeyBank a guarantee against certain inappropriate conduct by or on behalf of Pinedale LP or us. The credit agreement contains, among other restrictions, specific financial covenants including the maintenance of certain financial coverage ratios and a minimum net worth requirement. Pinedale LP is required to maintain a restricted collateral account into which Ultra Wyoming makes all lease payments under the Pinedale Lease Agreement. Payments of principal and interest pursuant to the credit facility are drawn by KeyBank directly from the restricted collateral account prior to transferring the remaining cash to the Pinedale LP operating account. The balance in the restricted collateral account at March 31, 2014 was $0. As of March 31, 2014, Pinedale LP was in compliance with all of the financial covenants of the secured term credit facility.
Pinedale LP's credit facility with KeyBank limits distributions by Pinedale LP to the Company. Now that the Company has qualified as a REIT under the Code, distributions by Pinedale LP to the Company are permitted to the extent required for the Company to maintain its REIT qualification, so long as Pinedale LP's obligations to KeyBank have not been accelerated following an Event of Default (as defined in the credit facility). The KeyBank credit facility also requires that Pinedale LP maintain minimum net worth levels and certain leverage ratios, which along with other provisions of the credit facility limit cash dividends and loans to the Company.
As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013 approximately $888 thousand and $1.0 million, respectively, in net deferred debt issuance costs related to the KeyBank credit facility are included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The deferred costs will be amortized over the anticipated three-year term of the KeyBank credit facility. For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013, $129 thousand and $128 thousand, respectively, are included in interest expense within the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.
We have executed interest rate swap derivatives to add stability to our interest expense and to manage our exposure to interest rate movements on our LIBOR based borrowings. Interest rate swaps involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for us making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. See Note 14 for further information regarding interest rate swap derivatives.
On May 8, 2013, the Company entered into a $20 million revolving line of credit with KeyBank. The primary term of the facility is three years with the option for a one-year extension. Outstanding balances under the revolving credit facility (the "Revolver") will accrue interest at a variable annual rate equal to LIBOR plus 4.0 percent or the Prime Rate plus 2.75 percent. We intend to use the facility to fund general working capital needs and if necessary, to provide short-term financing for the acquisition of additional real property assets. The amount available to be drawn under this facility is subject to a borrowing base limitation. If we were to use the Revolver to provide short-term financing for an acquisition, we would expect the assets acquired to be taken into consideration in determining the borrowing base. As of March 31, 2014 there had been no borrowings against the Revolver.
As of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, approximately $193 thousand and $208 thousand, respectively, in net deferred debt issuance costs, related to the Revolver, are included in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The deferred costs will be amortized over the anticipated four-year term of the Revolver facility. For the the three-month periods ended March 31, 2014 and March 31, 2013 $16 thousand and $0, respectively, is included in interest expense within the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.
