In June 2015, we completed a new credit facility to replace the Existing Credit Facilities. The new credit facility consists of a $275.0 million senior secured term loan, which matures on June 26, 2020 (“Term Loan”), and a $200.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”), which matures on June 26, 2020 (collectively, the “Credit Facilities”). The Credit Facilities bear interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (i) the Eurodollar Rate (defined as LIBOR) plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.75% per year or (ii) the Base Rate (defined as the highest of [a] Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, [b] Bank of America’s prime rate, and [c] the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.50% to 1.75% per year, in each case based upon the consolidated total net adjusted leverage ratio. The undrawn portions of the commitments of the Credit Facilities are subject to a commitment fee ranging from 0.175% to 0.300%, based upon the consolidated total net adjusted leverage ratio.
Further, we are required to make mandatory prepayments of amounts outstanding under the Term Loan. The mandatory prepayments will be made quarterly, equal to 5.0% per year of the original aggregate principal amount during the first two years and increase to 7.5% per year during the third year, and increase to 10.0% per year during the fourth year and fifth years, with the remaining balance payable on June 26, 2020. The loans under the Revolving Credit Facility are due on June 26, 2020. As of December 31, 2016, we were in compliance with all covenants required under the Credit Facilities.
We have been making voluntary principal prepayments on a quarterly basis on our senior secured term loan and in conjunction with the closing of the Credit Facilities in June 2015, we drew down $65.0 million on the Revolving Credit Facility and used those proceeds along with current cash on hand to extinguish the existing senior secured term loan of $80.0 million. We expensed the unamortized debt issuance costs related to the existing senior secured term loan of $2.8 million as part of extinguishing the existing senior secured term loan during 2015. We also incurred $4.8 million of debt issuance costs related to the Credit Facilities and those costs are capitalized and being amortized over the five year life of the Credit Facilities.
In addition, we retired all of the $200.0 million senior unsecured notes (“Existing Notes”) in July 2015. We drew down on the Term Loan in the amount of $275.0 million. Along with the call notice amount and paying the call premium of $9.8 million, we also paid down the $65.0 million drawn on the Revolving Credit Facility in June 2015. We expensed the call premium of $9.8 million and debt issuance costs related to the Existing Notes of $2.1 million upon extinguishing the Existing Notes during 2015.
We made voluntary principal prepayments of $75.0 million under the Term Loan during 2016.
As of December 31, 2016, we had $199.0 million of unused borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility, after deducting $1.0 million for standby letters of credit.
The Existing Notes were issued by us (“Parent Company”) and guaranteed by all of our subsidiaries, other than one subsidiary that was considered minor (“Subsidiary Guarantors”). The Subsidiary Guarantors jointly and severally guarantee the Existing Notes and Credit Facilities. The Parent Company has no independent assets or operations and therefore, no consolidating financial information for the Parent Company and its subsidiaries are presented.
In October 2015, we entered into interest rate cap hedges designated as cash flow hedges with maturity dates of June 2020, and in aggregate, totaling $135.0 million of our debt. We paid a total of $1.0 million in connection with the interest rate cap hedges. See Note 4 for further information.
In December 2016, we entered into an agreement to purchase $9.9 million of industrial revenue bonds (“IRBs”) issued by the city of Parsons, Kansas (“Parsons”) and concurrently, sold $9.9 million of property and equipment (“Property”) to Parsons as well as entered into a lease agreement to lease the Property from Parsons (“Lease”) with lease payments totaling $9.9 million over the lease term. The sale of the Property and concurrent lease back of the Property did not meet the sale-leaseback accounting requirements as a result of our continuous involvement with the Property and thus, the $9.9 million in cash received from Parsons was not recorded as a sale but as a financing obligation. Further, the Lease included a right of offset and thus, the financing obligation of $9.9 million was offset against the $9.9 million of IRBs assets and presented net on the consolidated balance sheets with no impact to the consolidated statements of operations or consolidated cash flow statements.
