3. CREDIT FACILITIES LC Facility On May 5, 2023, we amended our letter of credit facility with Whitney Bank (“LC Facility”) to reduce our letters of credit capacity from $20.0 million to $10.0 million, subject to our cash securitization of the letters of credit, and extend the maturity date to June 30, 2024. Commitment fees on the unused portion of the LC Facility are 0.4% per annum and interest on outstanding letters of credit is 1.5% per annum. At March 31, 2023, we had $1.2 million of outstanding letters of credit under the LC Facility. See Note 4 for further discussion of our letters of credit and associated security obligations. Surety Bonds We issue surety bonds in the ordinary course of business to support our projects. At March 31, 2023, we had $110.9 million of outstanding surety bonds, of which $50.0 million relates to our MPSV projects that are subject to our MPSV Litigation, $45.6 million relates to our Active Retained Shipyard Contracts, and $15.3 million relates to our Fabrication Division contracts and certain of our insurance coverages. See Note 4 for further discussion of our surety bonds and related indemnification obligations and our MPSV Litigation. Insurance Finance Arrangements In connection with the renewal of our property and equipment insurance coverages during 2022, and general liability insurance coverages during the first quarter 2023, we entered into short-term premium finance arrangements (“Insurance Finance Arrangements”). The property and equipment arrangement totaled $2.4 million, payable in ten equal monthly installments, with interest at a fixed rate of 4.3% per annum. The general liability arrangement totaled $0.5 million, payable in eight equal monthly installments, with interest at a fixed rate of 6.6% per annum. We consider the transactions to be non-cash financing activities, with the initial financed amount reflected within accrued expenses and other liabilities, and a corresponding asset reflected within prepaid expenses and other assets, on our Balance Sheet. We have reflected principal payments of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, as a financing activity on our Statement of Cash Flows, and at March 31, 2023, our remaining principal balance was $0.3 million. Mortgage Agreement and Restrictive Covenant Agreement In connection with the receipt of a consent for the Shipyard Transaction from one of our Sureties, we entered into a multiple indebtedness mortgage (“Mortgage Agreement”) and a restrictive covenant arrangement (“Restrictive Covenant Agreement”) with such Surety to secure our obligations for our MPSV projects and two forty-vehicle ferry projects. The Mortgage Agreement encumbers all remaining real estate that was not sold in connection with the Shipyard Transaction and includes certain covenants and events of default. Further, the Restrictive Covenant Agreement precludes us from paying dividends or repurchasing shares of our common stock. The Mortgage Agreement and Restrictive Covenant Agreement will terminate when the obligations and liabilities of the Surety associated with the outstanding surety bonds are discharged, or any judgment against us or the Surety arising out of litigation related to such contracts is satisfied by us. See Note 1 for further discussion of the Shipyard Transaction. |
