Debt Debt
On February 28, 2022, we entered into a term loan credit agreement with Blue Torch Finance LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and other lenders party thereto (the "Original Credit Agreement"). On August 16, 2022, we entered into an Amendment (the "Amendment") to the Original Credit Agreement (as amended by the Amendment, the "Credit Agreement"). The Amendment replaced the LIBOR-based Adjusted Euro currency Rate (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement) with Adjusted Term SOFR (as defined in the Amendment) as a reference rate for loans under the Credit Agreement. The proceeds of the loans under the Credit Agreement may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes, to refinance our credit agreement with Royal Bank of Canada ("RBC") and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the entry into the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement provides for a $70.0 million secured term loan credit facility. We incurred closing costs totaling $5.1 million, which were recorded as a direct deduction from the face of the loan on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. There was $3.5 million of unamortized issuance costs as of March 31, 2023. The carrying value of the term loan approximates the fair value, based on Level 2 inputs (observable market prices in less than active markets), as the interest rate is variable over the selected interest period and is similar to current rates at which we can borrow funds. The carrying value of the loan was $66.5 million as of March 31, 2023.

The Original Credit Agreement bore interest, at our option, at either a rate based on the LIBOR for the applicable interest period or a base rate, in each case plus a margin. The base rate was the highest of the prime rate, the federal funds rates plus 0.50% and one month adjusted LIBOR plus 1.00%. The margin was 7.50% for LIBOR loans and 6.50% for base rate loans. After the Amendment, the loans under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at our option, at either a rate based on the Adjusted Term SOFR or a base rate, in each case plus a margin. The base rate is the highest of the prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and three-month Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.00%. The margin is 7.50% for Adjusted Term SOFR loans and 6.50% for base rate loans. As of March 31, 2023, the interest rate was 12.65%. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we incurred interest expense of $2.2 million and $0.6 million, respectively.

Furthermore, as part of the Credit Agreement, we incur a $0.3 million fee per annum, payable annually. The outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement are payable in full on the maturity date. The Credit Agreement matures in February 2025. We have the right to prepay the loans under the Credit Agreement in whole or in part at any time, subject, in the case of certain mandatory prepayments or any voluntary prepayment of the loans under the Credit Agreement after February 28, 2023, to an exit fee, which right we did not exercise. Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of our material domestic subsidiaries and substantially all of our assets and the assets of such guarantors, in each case, subject to customary exclusion. We are obligated to pay administration fees under the Credit Agreement.

Financial covenants in the Credit Agreement require that we maintain Liquidity (as defined in the Credit Agreement) at or above $25.0 million as of the last calendar day of any month. The Credit Agreement also requires that the outstanding amount as of the last calendar day of any month be less than 50% of our total contract assets - commissions receivables (i.e., both current and non-current commissions receivables). As of March 31, 2023, we were in compliance with our loan covenants.

In the first quarter of 2022, we terminated our credit agreement with RBC, pursuant to which we had an up to $75 million revolving credit facility, in connection with entering into the Credit Agreement. As a result of the termination of our credit agreement with RBC, we wrote-off our remaining related debt issuance cost of $0.4 million in the first quarter of 2022. We had no outstanding borrowings under our agreement with RBC at the time of termination.
