Debentures payable

Debentures represent amounts due to the SBA and have semi-annual interest only payments until maturity. Our SBIC subsidiaries issued a total of $6.0 million of debentures in March 2013 at an interest rate of 2.35% plus an annual fee of 0.515% and a total of $8.5 million of debentures in August 2013 at an interest rate of 3.64% plus an annual fee of 0.76%. We repaid $4.2 million of debentures which matured on September 1, 2013. The debentures originally matured in 10 years and required semi-annual interest only payments until maturity. Our debentures were repaid during February 2014 using cash on hand and our revolving credit facility.

Revolving credit facility and new term note

PMC Commercial has a revolving credit facility with credit availability up to $40 million which matures on June 30, 2015. We are charged interest on the balance outstanding under the revolving credit facility at our election of either the prime rate of the lender less 50 basis points or the 30-day LIBOR plus 2%. In addition, we are charged an unused fee equal to 37.5 basis points computed based on our daily available balance. The credit facility requires us to meet certain covenants. We have a minimum net worth covenant ($132.0 million) within our credit facility that may limit our ability to pay dividends. At December 31, 2013, we were in compliance with the covenants of this facility.

In March 2014, we executed a new term note in the principal amount of $30 million which matures six months from its effective date at an interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.50%. In addition, among other things, our revolving credit facility was modified to (1) decrease the credit availability to $25.0 million until the term note is repaid, (2) eliminate the net worth covenant, (3) permit CIM Urban Partners, L.P., the operating subsidiary of CIM REIT, to continue to operate in a manner consistent with its existing operations, and (4) add a covenant requiring an asset coverage test (eligible loans receivable) for balances outstanding under the revolving credit facility of 3.00 times.
