Former Credit Facility  The Company maintained two Credit and Security Agreements, as amended, with Wells Fargo, which provided the Company with a line of credit of up to $20.0 million in the aggregate. Interest expense related the former credit facility with Wells Fargo during the six months ended September 30, 2017 was $0.2 million, which includes $0.1 million in amortization of deferred financing costs.

New Credit Facility  The Company maintains Bridge Bank Credit Agreements with Western Alliance Bank through Bridge Bank, with credit support provided by the Export-Import Bank of the United States through its working capital guarantee program. Under the terms of the Bridge Bank Credit Agreements, the Company may borrow up to $15.0 million on a revolving basis depending on, among other factors, the amount of its eligible inventory and accounts receivable. The Bridge Bank Credit Agreements will terminate in accordance with their terms on June 2, 2021.

On June 1, 2018, the Company entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with Bridge Bank. The Letter Agreement extended the maturity date under the Company’s Bridge Bank Credit Agreements from June 2, 2019 to June 2, 2021. The Letter Agreement increased the line of credit to an amount up to $15.0 million from $12.0 million. Additionally, the Letter Agreement reduced the per annum interest rate from prime rate plus 1.50 percent to prime rate plus 1.00 percent; the facility fee from 0.625% to 0.5%, and the cash collateral held at Bridge Bank from 42% to 40%, which is $6.0 million of the $15.0 million facility, as well as no fee for early termination.

Total borrowings, letter of credit obligations and the then aggregate committed amount of cash management services under the Bridge Bank Credit Agreements may not exceed 85% of the sum of unrestricted cash and the amount of cash collateral held at Bridge Bank. As a condition of the Bridge Bank Credit Agreements, the Company has restricted $6.0 million of cash equivalents as additional security for the credit facility. Borrowings under the Bridge Bank Credit Agreements will bear per annum interest at the prime rate plus 1.0 percent, subject to increase during the occurrence of an event of default. Obligations under the Bridge Bank Credit Agreements are secured by all of the Company’s assets, including intellectual property and general intangibles. The Company has incurred $0.4 million in origination fees. These fees have been recorded under the caption “Prepaid expenses and other current assets” in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and will be amortized to interest expense through June 2021. As of September 30, 2018, $12.5 million in borrowings were outstanding and approximately $2.5 million borrowings were available under the credit facility. Interest expense related to the new credit facility during the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $0.2 million, which includes $46,900 in amortization of deferred financing costs. Interest expense related to the new credit facility during the three months ended September 30, 2017 was $0.1 million, which includes $28,000 in amortization of deferred financing costs. Interest expense related to the new credit facility during the six months ended September 30, 2018 was $0.3 million, which includes $0.1 million in amortization of deferred financing costs. Interest expense related to the new credit facility during the six months ended September 30, 2017 was $0.2 million, which includes $46,000 in amortization of deferred financing costs. The Company’s borrowing rate was 6.3% at September 30, 2018.

The Bridge Bank Credit Agreements include affirmative covenants as well as negative covenants that prohibit a variety of actions without Bridge Bank’s consent, including covenants that limit the Company’s ability to (a) incur or guarantee debt, (b) create liens, (c) enter into any merger, recapitalization or similar transaction or purchase all or substantially all of the assets or stock of another entity or (d) sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Company’s assets. 

The financial covenants of the domestic credit agreement with Bridge Bank (the “Domestic Facility”), which is included in the Bridge Bank Credit Agreements, requires the Company not to exceed specified levels of losses relative to its financial model and the outstanding line of credit advances may not exceed 85% of the sum of unrestricted cash and the amount of cash collateral held at Bridge Bank. The Domestic Facility also defines an event of default to include a material adverse effect on the Company’s business. An event of default for this or any other reason, if not waived, could have a material adverse effect on the Company. As of September 30, 2018 we were in compliance with the covenants contained in the Bridge Bank Credit Agreements for Fiscal 2019.
