Pursuant to the Third Amendment, the Lenders consented to DTG2Go's acquisition of substantially all of the assets of SSI. The Third Amendment also: (i) amended the existing loan agreement, including various definitions therein, to add a first -in last-out "FILO" borrowing component and (ii) amended the existing loan agreement, including various definitions therein, to address the potential unavailability or discontinuance of the use of LIBOR rates and updated certain provisions regarding compliance with denied party, sanctioned entity, anti-corruption and anti-money laundering and related laws and regulations and other items.The Amended Credit Agreement allows us to borrow up to $145 million (subject to borrowing base limitations), including a maximum of $25 million in letters of credit. Provided that no event of default exists, we have the option to increase the maximum credit to $200 million (subject to borrowing base limitations), conditioned upon the Administrative Agent's ability to secure additional commitments and customary closing conditions. The credit facility matures on May 10, 2021.
As of June 29, 2019 $114.8 million outstanding under our U.S. revolving credit facility at an average interest rate of 4.7% and additional borrowing availability of $21.6 million. This credit facility includes a financial covenant requiring that if the amount of availability falls below the threshold amounts set forth in the Amended Credit Agreement, our Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (“FCCR”) (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement) for the preceding 12 -month period must not be less than 1.1 to 1.0. We were not subject to the FCCR covenant at June 29, 2019 June 29, 2019, and September 29, 2018
$14.4 million and $14.7 million, respectively, of retained earnings free of restrictions to make cash dividends or stock repurchases.The Amended Credit Agreement contains a subjective acceleration clause and a “springing” lockbox arrangement (as defined in FASB Codification No. 470, Debt ("ASC 470" )) whereby remittances from customers will be forwarded to our general bank account and will not reduce the outstanding debt until and unless a specified event or an event of default occurs. Pursuant to ASC 470, we classify borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement as long-term debt.In August 2013, we acquired Salt Life and issued two promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $22.0 million, which included a one -time installment of $9.0 million that was due and paid as required on September 30, 2014, and quarterly installments commencing on March 31, 2015, with the final installment due on June 30, 2019. The promissory notes are zero -interest notes and state that interest will be imputed as required under Section 1274 of the Internal Revenue Code. We imputed interest at 1.92% on the promissory note that matured on June 30, 2016, and was paid in full as required. We impute interest at 3.62% on the promissory note that matured on June 30, 2019. At June 29, 2019 $0.5 million.On October 8, 2018, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Silk Screen Ink, Ltd. d/b/a SSI Digital Print Services. See Note-D Acquisitions for more information on this transaction. In conjunction with the acquisition, we issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $7.0 million. The promissory note bears interest at 6% with quarterly installments beginning January 2, 2019, with the final installment due October 1, 2021. As of June 29, 2019 $5.9 million outstanding on the promissory note.Since March 2011, we have entered into term loans and a revolving credit facility with Banco Ficohsa, a Honduran bank, to finance both the operations and capital expansion of our Honduran facilities. Each of these loans is secured by a first -priority lien on the assets of our Honduran operations and is not guaranteed by our U.S. entities. These loans are denominated in U.S. dollars and the carrying value of the debt approximates its fair value. The revolving credit facility requires minimum payments during each nine 18 -month term; however, the loan agreement permits additional drawdowns to the extent payments are made and certain objective covenants are met. The current revolving Honduran debt, by its nature, is not long-term, as it requires scheduled payments each six months. However, as the loan permits us to re-borrow funds up to the amount repaid, subject to certain covenants, and we intend to re-borrow funds, subject to those covenants, the amounts have been classified as long-term debt.Additional information about these loans and the outstanding balances as of June 29, 2019
