The weighted average interest rate for warehouse lines of credit was 2.4% and 2.5% at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. All warehouse lines of credit are collateralized by underlying mortgages and related documents. Existing balances on warehouse lines are repaid through the sale proceeds from the collateralized loans held for sale. The Company intends to renew existing warehouse lines prior to expiration. If those lines are not renewed or replaced, that could have a negative impact on the Company’s ability to continue funding new loans. The Company had cash balances of $46.7 million and $15.6 million in its warehouse buy down accounts as offsets to certain lines of credit at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
The agreements governing the Company’s warehouse lines of credit contain covenants that include certain financial requirements, including maintenance of maximum adjusted leverage ratio, minimum net worth, minimum tangible net worth, minimum current ratio, minimum liquidity, positive quarterly income and limitations on additional indebtedness, dividends, sale of assets, and decline in the mortgage loan servicing portfolio’s fair value. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company believes it was in compliance with all debt covenants.
The Company has an optional short-term financing agreement between FNMA and the lender described as “As Soon As Pooled” (ASAP). The Company can elect to assign FNMA Mortgage Backed Security ("MBS") trades to FNMA in advance of settlement and enter into a financing transaction and revenue related to the assignment is deferred until the final pool settlement date. The Company determines utilization based on warehouse availability and cash needs. There was no outstanding balance as of December 31, 2021 and 2020.
NOTES PAYABLE
Revolving Notes
In January 2014, the Company entered into an agreement for a revolving note from one of its warehouse banks, which it can draw upon as needed and has renewed on an annual basis. Borrowings on the revolving note are collateralized by the Company’s GNMA MSRs. Monthly interest on the outstanding balance is calculated using a base rate tied to the LIBOR rate plus the applicable margin, with a floor of 4.50%. The revolving note also has an unused facility fee on the average unused balance, which is also paid quarterly. The unused facility fee is waived if the average outstanding balance exceeds 70% of the available facility. In June 2020, the Company amended and restated the agreement and the revolving note was increased to a maximum committed amount of $135.0 million. The agreement also allows for the Company to increase the committed amount up to $200.0 million. The revolving note is currently scheduled to expire in June 2022. The Company has the option to convert the outstanding balance of the revolving note into a term note at its discretion. At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had $60.0 million and $45.0 million, respectively, in outstanding borrowings on this credit facility.
In July 2017, the Company entered into an agreement for a revolving note of up to $25.0 million from one of its warehouse banks, which it can draw upon as needed and has renewed on an annual basis.

In July 2021, the Company amended the agreement by extending the expiration date to July 2022. Borrowings on the revolving note are collateralized by the Company’s FHLMC MSRs.

The revolving note also has an unused facility fee on the average unused balance, which is also paid quarterly. The unused facility fee is waived if the average outstanding balance exceeds 50% of the available combined warehouse and MSR facility.

At December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had $65.0 million and $20.0 million, respectively, in outstanding borrowings on this credit facility.

The outstanding amount of $76.5 million was rolled into a new term note with a commitment of $125.0 million. The note allows for the committed amount to be increased to a maximum of $175.0 million. The Company could draw on the committed amount through March 2022 and the note matures on March 25, 2024.
