Revolving Credit Facility
The Company has a $400,000 senior secured revolving credit facility. In July 2014, the Company entered into a third amendment and restatement to the revolving credit facility. The amendment and restatement extended the scheduled maturity date of the facility from September 16, 2016 to July 17, 2019, reduced the interest rate and facility fee payable under the facility and amended the covenants restricting the Company’s ability to make distributions and acquisitions and make investments, among other things. The facility includes a provision permitting the Company to increase the size of the facility, up to four times, in increments of at least $25,000 each (up to a maximum of $200,000) under certain circumstances if lenders agree to commit to such an increase.
At September 30, 2014, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility. Any borrowings under the facility will bear interest at either LIBOR plus a spread ranging from 1.75% to 1.25%, provided that so long as the Company is rated investment grade, the margin for LIBOR loans will not exceed 1.50%, or a base rate plus a spread ranging from 0.50% to 0.00%. The revolving credit facility also requires an unused commitment fee of 0.25% per annum. All interest rates under the facility are subject to monthly grid pricing adjustments based on prior month average daily loan availability. The revolving credit facility matures on July 17, 2019. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had outstanding letters of credit totaling $32,399 and borrowing availability of $367,601 under the revolving credit facility. 
The Company's revolving credit facility generally restricts the Company's ability to make distributions unless, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the distribution, the borrowing availability under the facility equals or exceeds the greater of (1) 20% of the commitments under the facility and (2) $80,000; or the borrowing availability under the facility equals or exceeds the greater of (1) 15% of the commitments under the facility and (2) $60,000, and the Company's fixed charge coverage ratio is at least 1.0:1. However, the Company may make specified distributions up to an aggregate of $75,000, to be increased by 5% in 2015, and in each fiscal year thereafter, on an aggregate basis, for each fiscal year.
In order to make acquisitions or investments, the Company's revolving credit facility generally provides that (1) the Company must maintain a minimum borrowing availability of at least the greater of $60,000 or 15% of the total bank commitments under its revolving credit facility or (2) the Company must maintain a minimum borrowing availability of at least the greater of $50,000 or 12.5% of the total bank commitments under its revolving credit facility and meet a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0:1 under its revolving credit facility. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may make investments in the aggregate up to the greater of $50,000 and 1.25% of tangible assets and acquisitions in the aggregate up to the greater of $100,000 and 2.5% of tangible assets, if, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the acquisition or investment, either (X) the borrowing availability under the facility equals or exceeds the greater of (A) 12.5% of the total bank commitments under the facility and (B) $50,000, but is less than the greater of (A) 15% of the total bank commitments and (B) $60,000, or (Y) the Company's fixed charge coverage ratio is at least 1.0:1.
The revolving credit facility contains other customary covenants and events of default that impose significant operating and financial restrictions on the Company. These restrictions, among other things, limit the occurrence of additional indebtedness and the Company's ability to create liens, to engage in certain affiliate transactions and to engage in sale-leaseback transactions.
