In connection with the amendment, the company terminated its previously existing term loan facility dated Sept. 19, 2017 with U.S. Bank NA as administrative agent. The outstanding debt under the term loan was repaid in full. The repayment was a prepayment made during the period in which a prepayment premium was applicable, and the company incurred a prepayment premium of about $1 million.
