Credit Facilities
We have a $500 million, five-year, unsecured revolving credit facility (the "Facility"), which expires in May 2020. The Facility is available for general corporate purposes including working capital, trade letters of credit, and standby letters of credit. The Facility fees fluctuate based on our long-term senior unsecured credit ratings and our leverage ratio. If we were to draw on the Facility, interest would be a base rate (typically LIBOR) plus a margin based on our long-term senior unsecured credit ratings and our leverage ratio on the unpaid principal amount. To maintain availability of funds under the Facility, we pay a facility fee on the full facility amount, regardless of usage. As of February 3, 2018, there were no borrowings and no material outstanding standby letters of credit under the Facility.
We maintain multiple agreements with third parties that make unsecured revolving credit facilities available for our operations in foreign locations (the “Foreign Facilities”). These Foreign Facilities are uncommitted and are generally available for borrowings, overdraft borrowings, and the issuance of bank guarantees. The total capacity of the Foreign Facilities was $50 million as of February 3, 2018. As of February 3, 2018, there were no borrowings under the Foreign Facilities. There were $17 million in bank guarantees issued and outstanding primarily related to store leases under the Foreign Facilities as of February 3, 2018.
We have bilateral unsecured standby letter of credit agreements that are uncommitted and do not have expiration dates. As of February 3, 2018, we had $15 million in standby letters of credit issued under these agreements.
The Facility contains financial and other covenants including, but not limited to, limitations on liens and subsidiary debt, as well as the maintenance of two financial ratios—a minimum annual fixed charge coverage ratio of 2.00 and a maximum annual leverage ratio of 2.25. As of February 3, 2018, we were in compliance with all such covenants. Violation of these covenants could result in a default under the Facility, which would permit the participating banks to terminate our ability to access the Facility for letters of credit and advances and require the immediate repayment of any outstanding advances.
