Item 7.A QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES
ABOUT MARKET RISK.
Interest Rate Risk - We are exposed to the
impact of interest rate changes through our variable-rate borrowings under our Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo.
Under the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement, the applicable
margin for borrowings at December 31, 2022 was Daily 1-Month LIBOR plus 1.0%. The applicable margin for such borrowings will be increased
in the event that our debt to capitalization ratio as calculated under the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement Facility exceeds a target level.
The Company did not have any variable rate debt outstanding
at December 31, 2022, so a sensitivity analysis was not performed to determine the impact of hypothetical changes in interest rates on
the Company’s results of operations and cash flows.
For our debt instruments with variable interest rates,
changes in interest rates affect the amount of interest expense incurred. The following table presents the principal cash flow payments
associated with our outstanding debt by year, weighted average interest rates on debt outstanding each year-end, and fair value of total
debt as of December 31, 2022 (dollars in thousands):
