Debt and Credit Agreements

On September 12, 2013, the Company entered into an additional amendment to the Amended and Restated Five-Year Credit Agreement (as amended, the "Credit Agreement"). In addition to certain administrative and conforming modifications, the amendment replaced the debt covenant for total consolidated debt to total consolidated capital ratio. That debt covenant has been replaced by a debt covenant for total consolidated debt to consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ratio, which is not to exceed 3.50 to 1.00. During the three months ended September 30, 2013, the Company expensed $0.4 million of fees associated with the additional amendment to the Credit Agreement.

Additionally, the Company retired the $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.125% notes, due September 15, 2013, at maturity using borrowings under the Company's Credit Agreement.
