In June 2019, the Company refinanced its senior unsecured credit facility (the “Facility”), increasing borrowing capacity from $700 million to $1 billion. The Facility matures in June 2024. The interest rate ranges from LIBOR + 0.875% to a maximum of LIBOR + 1.50%, depending upon the better of the Company’s leverage ratio or the credit rating. During the second quarter of 2020, the interest rate for the Facility increased to LIBOR + 1.125%, reflecting a change in the leverage ratio. As of September 30, 2020, total borrowings under the Facility were $302 million, which approximates fair value. The Facility agreement permits us to issue letters of credit up to an aggregate amount of $50 million. Outstanding letters of credit reduce the amount available for borrowing under the Facility. As of September 30, 2020, there were no issued letters of credit under the Facility, resulting in undrawn availability under the Facility of $698 million, subject to ongoing covenant compliance. The weighted average interest rate for the Facility was 1.76% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

 

The Facility agreement contains financial and other covenants, including, but not limited to customary restrictions on the incurrence of debt by our subsidiaries and the granting of liens, as well as the maintenance of an interest coverage ratio and a leverage

ratio. As defined in the Facility agreement, we are required to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.50 (based on the ratio of EBITDA to interest expense) and may not exceed a maximum leverage ratio of 3.75 (based on the ratio of total debt to EBITDA) with a step up to 4.25 allowed following certain acquisitions. In addition, the Facility agreement contains other customary terms and conditions such as representations and warranties, additional covenants and events of default.

 

In September 2020, we amended our Facility (the “Amendment”) to allow for relief from certain terms of the Facility from October 1, 2020 through and including September 30, 2021 (the “Covenant Relief Period”).  During the Covenant Relief Period, we are required to maintain a leverage ratio not greater than: 4.25, 5.75, 5.00 and 4.25, respectively, for each of the quarterly test periods from December 31, 2020 through September 30, 2021. During the Covenant Relief Period, consolidated total debt is calculated net of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents in an amount not to exceed $200 million.  Additionally, during the Covenant Relief Period, we are subject to (i) limitations on share repurchases, (ii) further limitations on the incurrence of secured indebtedness, and (iii) an increase in pricing based on the then existing leverage ratio.  

 

In 2017, the Company issued $400 million in aggregate principal amount of 3.95% Senior Unsecured Notes due in 2027. The interest rate on these senior notes may be increased 0.25% each time a credit rating applicable to the notes is downgraded. Conversely, such increases would be reversed should the credit rating be subsequently upgraded. The maximum rate is 5.95%. The effective interest rate for nine months ended September 30, 2020 was 3.87% inclusive of approximately a 0.25% benefit of treasury locks. Based on quoted prices, the fair value of the senior unsecured notes due in 2027 was $431.1 million at September 30, 2020.

 

In January 2020, we used $49.9 million to repay and terminate the Euro term loan.    

 

In 2015, the Company issued $300 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.7% Senior Unsecured Notes due in 2025. The interest rate on these senior notes may be increased by 0.25% each time a credit rating applicable to the notes is downgraded. Conversely, such increases would be reversed should the credit rating be subsequently upgraded. The maximum rate is 6.7%.  The effective interest rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was 4.83%. Based on quoted prices, the fair value of these notes was $334.0 million at September 30, 2020.
