| BORROWINGS | NOTE 5: BORROWINGS
Borrowings, as of June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, consisted of the following:
Secured Credit Facilities
As of June 30, 2015, the Company had secured credit facilities with various banks with a total outstanding balance of $238,559. The purpose of the facilities was to finance the construction or acquisition of vessels or refinance existing indebtedness. All of the facilities are denominated in U.S. Dollars and bear interest based on LIBOR plus spread ranging from 2.25% to 3.60% per annum. The facilities are repayable in either semi-annual or quarterly installments, followed by balloon payments with maturities, ranging from September 2018 to November 2022. See also the maturity table included below.
The facilities are secured by first priority mortgages on certain of Navios Holdings' vessels and other collateral.
The credit facilities contain a number of restrictive covenants that limit Navios Holdings and/or certain of its subsidiaries from, among other things: incurring or guaranteeing indebtedness; entering into affiliate transactions; charging, pledging or encumbering the vessels securing such facilities; changing the flag, class, management or ownership of certain Navios Holdings' vessels; changing the commercial and technical management of certain Navios Holdings' vessels; selling or changing the ownership of certain Navios Holdings' vessels; and subordinating the obligations under the credit facilities to any general and administrative costs relating to the vessels. The credit facilities also require the vessels to comply with the ISM Code and ISPS Code and to maintain valid safety management certificates and documents of compliance at all times. Additionally, the credit facilities require compliance with the covenants contained in the indentures governing the 2019 Notes (as defined below) and the 2022 Notes (as defined below). Among other events, it will be an event of default under the credit facilities if the financial covenants are not complied with or if Angeliki Frangou and her affiliates, together, own less than 20% of the outstanding share capital of Navios Holdings.
As of June 30, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants under each of its credit facilities.
