Credit Facility

In October 2015, we entered into the Credit Facility, that replaced our prior revolving credit facility, which was scheduled to expire in April 2017. The Credit Facility, which expires in October 2020, contains a $300.0 million credit facility, which may be increased from time to time by up to $100.0 million in the aggregate, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and upon approval by the banks. Up to $30.0 million of the Credit Facility is available for swing-line loans and up to $30.0 million is available for the issuance of standby letters of credit. Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at either the base rate or at the applicable LIBOR rate, plus a tiered margin based on the ratio of our total debt to modified earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, ranging from 0 to 75 basis points for base rate loans and 100 to 175 basis points for LIBOR rate loans. Consistent with our previous revolving credit facility, the Credit Facility contains representations and covenants that require compliance with, among other restrictions, a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. The Credit Facility also contains usual and customary default provisions, and limitations on liens securing indebtedness, asset sales, distributions and acquisitions. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, total unamortized debt issuance costs of $0.6 million and $1.0 million, respectively, were recorded in other noncurrent assets and are being amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the Credit Facility. A portion of these costs relate to our prior credit facility.

At December 31, 2018, we had $28.6 million in outstanding long-term borrowings under the Credit Facility, of which $4.6 million was denominated in Yen and $24.0 million in Euro. These borrowings, together with outstanding letters of credit of $2.5 million, resulted in a borrowing capacity available under the Credit Facility of $268.9 million at December 31, 2018. Please refer to Note 10, Derivative Financial Instruments, for a discussion of the foreign currency hedges associated with this facility.

Private Placement

In 2012, we concluded a private placement issuance of $168.0 million in senior unsecured notes. The total amount of the private placement issuance was divided into three tranches - $42.0 million 3.67% Series A Notes due July 5, 2022, $53.0 million 3.82% Series B Notes due July 5, 2024, and $73.0 million 4.02% Series C Notes due July 5, 2027 (the “Notes”). The Notes rank pari passu with our other senior unsecured debt. The weighted average of the coupon interest rates on the Notes is 3.87%. As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, there were unamortized debt issuance costs remaining of $0.6 million and $0.7 million, respectively, which are being amortized as additional interest expense over the term of the Notes.

Covenants

Pursuant to the financial covenants in our debt agreements, we are required to maintain established interest coverage ratios and to not exceed established leverage ratios. In addition, the agreements contain other customary covenants, none of which we consider restrictive to our operations. At December 31, 2018, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants, and we expect to continue to be in compliance with the terms of these agreements throughout 2019.

Interest costs incurred during 2018, 2017 and 2016 were $9.3 million, $10.5 million and $11.7 million, respectively. The aggregate annual maturities of long-term debt, excluding unamortized debt issuance costs, were as follows: 2019 - $0.1 million, 2020 - $28.6 million, none in 2021, 2022 - $42.0 million, none in 2023, and thereafter - $126.0 million.
