(1)
In August 2018, we redeemed all $200 million of our 6.625% Senior Notes due 2021 ("Notes"). In accordance with the terms of the indenture governing the Notes, the redemption price was 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. We recorded a $0.8 million charge for the write-off of the associated unamortized debt issuance costs.  The redemption of the Notes was funded with proceeds from our ¥26.0 billion ($233.2 million) term loan agreement entered into in July 2018 by J-Devices Corporation and guaranteed by Amkor Technology, Inc. Principal is payable in quarterly installments.
(2)
In June 2018, we extended our $75.0 million credit facility from June 2018 to September 2018 and in September 2018, we replaced it with a $75.0 million term loan due September 2021 at LIBOR plus 2.34%.
In December 2018, we entered into a $200.0 million term loan agreement to repay this $75.0 million term loan. The remaining proceeds along with cash on hand were used to repay the $141 million outstanding term loan due May 2020. Principal of the new term loan is payable at maturity date of December 2023.
(3)
In October 2018, we entered into a revolving credit facility agreement with availability of $30.0 million. Principal will be payable at the maturity date of October 2019. As of December 31, 2018, $30.0 million was available to be drawn.
(4)
In May 2015, we entered into a term loan agreement pursuant to which we may borrow up to $150.0 million for capital expenditures. Principal is payable at maturity in June 2020. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. In the second quarter of 2018, we borrowed the remaining $64.0 million available under the term loan due June 2020 and repaid $55 million of the term loan due December 2019 and $9 million of the term loan due May 2020.
In December 2018, we entered into a term loan agreement pursuant to which we may borrow up to $90.0 million for capital expenditures. We borrowed $24.0 million of this new term loan and used the proceeds along with $1.0 million cash on hand to repay part of the term loan due June 2020. Principal of the new term loan is payable in semiannual installments beginning June 2022 and ending at maturity date of December 2028. As of December 31, 2018, $66.0 million was available to be drawn. In February 2019, we borrowed an additional $30.0 million of this new term loan and used the proceeds to repay $29.0 million of the term loan due June 2020.
(5)
We entered into various short-term loans which mature semiannually. Principal is payable in monthly installments. As of December 31, 2018, $4.6 million was available to be drawn.
(6)
In July 2018, the senior secured revolving credit facility of Amkor Technology, Inc. was terminated and replaced by a new facility entered into by our subsidiary, Amkor Technology Singapore Holding Pte, Ltd., and guaranteed by Amkor Technology, Inc. We recorded a $0.4 million charge for the write-off of the associated unamortized debt issuance costs relating to the terminated credit facility. The availability for the new revolving credit facility is based on the amount of eligible accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2018, we had availability of $250.0 million under the new senior secured revolving credit facility with no outstanding standby letters of credit.
(7)
In November 2015, we entered into a $39.0 million revolving credit facility. Principal is payable at maturity. As of December 31, 2018, $19.0 million was available to be drawn.
Certain of our foreign debt is collateralized by the land, buildings, equipment and accounts receivable in the respective locations. The carrying value of the collateral exceeds the carrying amount of the debt.

Interest is payable semiannually on our senior notes and quarterly or monthly on our other fixed- and variable-rate debt. Refer to the table above for the interest rates on our fixed-rate debt and to the table below for the interest rates on our variable-rate debt.
