NOTE G – DEBT
Revolving Credit Facility: In June 2013, the Company amended its revolving credit facility to extend the termination date to June 2018.
The maximum committed amount available under the revolving credit facility due June 2018 is $1 billion. The facility also provides the Company with an option to increase the available credit by an amount up to $500 million. This option is subject to certain conditions and the agreement of the facility lenders.
Advances under the revolving credit facility due June 2018 bear interest at a rate dependent on the Company's credit ratings at the time of those borrowings and are calculated according to a Base Rate or a Eurocurrency Rate, as the case may be, plus an applicable margin. The Company must also pay facility commitment fees quarterly on the full revolving credit commitment at rates dependent on the Company's credit ratings.
At June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013, there were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility and, based on the Company's credit ratings, the rates applicable to the facility at June 30, 2013 and March 31, 2013 were as follows:

March 31, 2013

The interest rate that would have applied at June 30, 2013 to a borrowing under the revolving credit facility due June 2018 would have been 3.38% for Base Rate borrowings and 1.19% for Eurocurrency Rate borrowings. The Company capitalized the transaction fees of approximately $1 million associated with the extension of the revolving credit facility due June 2018. These fees are being amortized to “Interest expense, net” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
There was no borrowing activity under the revolving credit facility for the first quarter of fiscal year 2014. The revolving credit facility due June 2018 contains customary covenants for borrowings of this type, including two financial covenants: (i) for the 12 months ending each quarter-end, the ratio of consolidated debt for borrowed money to consolidated cash flow, each as defined in the revolving credit facility agreement, must not exceed 4.00 to 1.00; and (ii) for the 12 months ending at any date, the ratio of consolidated cash flow to the sum of interest payable on, and amortization of debt discount in respect of, all consolidated debt for borrowed money, as defined in the credit agreement, must not be less than 3.50 to 1.00. At June 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all covenants.
In addition, future borrowings under the revolving credit facility require, at the date of a borrowing, that (i) no event of default shall have occurred and be continuing and (ii) the Company reaffirm the representations and warranties it made in the credit agreement.
