Note 18. Borrowings

On May 12, 2015, the Company entered into a $440 million revolving credit facility (the “2015 Credit Agreement”) with a group of lenders and KeyBank National Association, as Lead Arranger, Sole Book Runner, Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and Issuing Lender (“KeyBank”). The 2015 Credit Agreement replaced the Company’s previous $245 million revolving credit facility dated May 3, 2012 (the “2012 Credit Agreement”), as amended, which agreement was terminated simultaneous with entering into the 2015 Credit Agreement. The 2015 Credit Agreement is subject to certain borrowing limitations and includes certain customary financial and restrictive covenants.

The 2015 Credit Agreement includes a $200 million alternate-currency sub-facility, a $10 million swingline sub-facility and a $35 million letter of credit sub-facility, and may be used for general corporate purposes including acquisitions, share repurchases, working capital support and letters of credit, subject to certain limitations. The Company is not currently aware of any inability of its lenders to provide access to the full commitment of funds that exist under the revolving credit facility, if necessary. However, there can be no assurance that such facility will be available to the Company, even though it is a binding commitment of the financial institutions.

Borrowings consist of the following (in thousands):


	December 31,
	2015		2014
Revolving credit facility	$	70,000	$	75,000
Less: Current portion		—		—

Total long-term debt	$	70,000	$	75,000

The 2015 Credit Agreement matures on May 12, 2020 and has no varying installments due.

Borrowings under the 2015 Credit Agreement will bear interest at either LIBOR or the base rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin based on the Company’s leverage ratio. The applicable interest rate will be determined quarterly based on the Company’s leverage ratio at such time. The base rate is a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (i) the rate of interest established by KeyBank, from time to time, as its “prime rate”; (ii) the Federal Funds effective rate in effect from time to time, plus 1/2 of 1% per annum; and (iii) the then-applicable LIBOR rate for one month interest periods, plus 1.00%. Swingline loans will bear interest only at the base rate plus the base rate margin.

In addition, the Company is required to pay certain customary fees, including a commitment fee of 0.125%, which is due quarterly in arrears and calculated on the average unused amount of the 2015 Credit Agreement.

The 2015 Credit Agreement is guaranteed by all of the Company’s existing and future direct and indirect material U.S. subsidiaries and secured by a pledge of 100% of the non-voting and 65% of the voting capital stock of all the direct foreign subsidiaries of the Company and those of the guarantors.

In May 2015, the Company paid an underwriting fee of $0.9 million for the 2015 Credit Agreement, which is deferred and amortized over the term of the loan, along with the deferred loan fees of $0.4 million related to the 2012 Credit Agreement. The Company expensed $0.1 million of the remaining deferred loan fees related to the 2012 Credit Agreement.
