Lines of Credit
The Company has an uncommitted demand revolving credit facility ("Trading Credit Facility”) provided to the Company by a syndicate of financial institutions, with Coöperatieve Rabobank U.A. ("Rabobank") acting as lead lender and administrative agent and Natixis, New York Branch acting as syndication agent. The Trading Credit Facility is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets on a first priority basis. Currently, the Trading Credit Facility provides the Company with access up to $275.0 million, featuring a $225 million base with a $50.0 million accordion option, and is scheduled to mature on March 31, 2018. As of December 31, 2017, the Company incurred $1.9 million of loan costs in connection with the Trading Credit Facility, which was capitalized and is being amortized over the term of the Trading Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, the remaining unamortized balance was approximately $0.3 million and $0.1 million, respectively.
The Company routinely uses the Trading Credit Facility to purchase precious metals from suppliers and for operating cash flow purposes. Amounts under the Trading Credit Facility bear interest based on London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a 2.50% margin for revolving credit line loans and a 4.50% margin for bridge loans (that is, for loans that exceed the available revolving credit line). The one-month LIBOR rate was approximately 1.56% and 1.17% as of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, respectively. Borrowings are due on demand and totaled $214.0 million and $180.0 million at December 31, 2017 and at June 30, 2017, respectively. The amounts available under the respective borrowing facilities are determined at the end of each week following a specified borrowing base formula. The Company is able to access additional credit as needed to finance operations, subject to the overall limits of the borrowing facilities and lender approval of the revised borrowing base calculation. Based on the latest approved borrowing bases in effect, the amounts available under the Trading Credit Facility after taking into account current borrowings, totaled $35.9 million and $45.6 million as determined on the Friday before December 31, 2017 and on Friday, June 30, 2017, respectively.

Debt Obligation
On August 28, 2017, in connection with the closing of the Goldline acquisition (see Note 1), Goldline, then known as Goldline Acquisition Corp., entered into a privately placed credit facility in the amount of $7.5 million (the “Goldline Credit Facility”) with various lenders (the "Goldline Lenders"). Borrowings under the Goldline Credit Facility were used to finance a portion of the consideration payable pursuant to the Goldline acquisition.
The Goldline Credit Facility is secured by a first priority lien on substantially all of the assets of Goldline , and is guaranteed by the Company. Interest on the Goldline Credit Facility is payable quarterly in arrears at the rate of 8.5% per annum, and the Goldline Lenders under the Goldline Credit Facility are entitled to an additional funding fee payment at maturity equal to the greater of 3% of the principal amount of the Goldline Credit Facility and 10% of cumulative EBITDA (for the periods ending June 30, 2018, 2019 and 2020) of Goldline in excess of $10 million, on a pro rata basis. The Goldline Credit Facility has a three-year maturity, and all outstanding principal and unpaid interest is due upon maturity (August 28, 2020).

As of December 31, 2017, the balance of the loan fee payable was $0.5 million, of which $0.3 million was estimated based on discounted cash flow model of Goldline's projected results.
Interest expense related to the Goldline Credit Facility (including debt loan amortization costs) totaled $200,000 which represents 6.0% of the total interest expense recognized, for the three months ended December 31, 2017. The Goldline Credit Facility's weighted average effective interest rate was 9.29% for the three months ended December 31, 2017.
Interest expense related to the Goldline Credit Facility (including debt loan amortization costs) totaled $279,000 which represents 4.6% of the total interest expense recognized, for the six months ended December 31, 2017.

The obligations of Goldline and the Company pursuant to the documentation governing the Goldline Credit Facility are subordinated to the Company’s obligations under the Uncommitted Credit Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2016, as amended (see Lines of Credit, above in Note 14), among the Company, Coöperatieve Rabobank U.A. New York Branch, as administrative agent, and the Goldline Lenders named therein (the “Uncommitted Credit Agreement”) including, among other subordination terms, that the Goldline Lenders will be permitted to collect regularly scheduled payments of principal and interest, provided that no event of default is continuing under the Uncommitted Credit Agreement and the Company is in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants pursuant to the Uncommitted Credit Agreement.

The following table shows the directors, executive officer and principal stockholder that participated in the Goldline Credit Facility transaction, and provides related information:
Liability on Borrowed Metals
The Company borrows precious metals from its suppliers under short-term agreements with our suppliers. Amounts under these arrangements require delivery either in the form of precious metals or cash. Liabilities also arise from unallocated position held by customers of the Company's inventory. The Company's inventories included borrowed metals with market values totaling $19.5 million and $5.6 million as of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, respectively, with the corresponding liability on borrowed metals reflected on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Product Financing Arrangements
The Company has agreements with financial institutions (third parties) that allows the Company to transfer its gold and silver inventory at an agreed-upon price based on the spot price with these third parties. Such agreements allow the Company to repurchase this inventory at an agreed-upon price based on the spot price on the repurchase date. The third party charges a monthly fee as percentage of the market value of the outstanding obligation; such monthly charges are classified in interest expense. These transactions do not qualify as sales, and therefore have been accounted for as financing arrangements and reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as product financing arrangements. The obligation is stated at the amount required to repurchase the outstanding inventory. Both the product financing obligation and the underlying inventory (which is entirely restricted) are carried at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded as a component of cost of sales in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Such obligation totaled $120.2 million and $135.3 million as of December 31, 2017 and June 30, 2017, respectively.
