REPURCHASE OF SENIOR NOTES
In the first quarter of 2016, we repurchased $62 million of our 6.3% Senior Notes due in 2016, referred to as the 6.3% Notes, on the open market. The transaction included premiums of $2 million and accrued interest of $1 million for aggregate consideration of $65 million. As a result of the repurchases, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt, before tax, of $2 million including premiums, write-off of deferred financing fees and broker fees.
Subsequent to quarter end, we repurchased an additional $47 million of the 6.3% Notes. The transaction included $2 million for premiums and $1 million for accrued interest for an aggregate consideration of $50 million. These notes are recorded in "Current portion of long-term debt" on our consolidated balance sheets.
In the first quarter of 2015, we repurchased $350 million of our 8.375% Senior Notes due in 2018, referred to as the 2018 Notes, through both a cash tender offer and a subsequent notice of redemption of the remaining 2018 Notes. We completed a cash tender offer pursuant to which we repurchased $126 million of the 2018 Notes for aggregate consideration, including tender offer premium and accrued and unpaid interest, of $135 million. We repurchased the remaining $224 million of the 2018 Notes for aggregate consideration, including premiums and accrued and unpaid interest, of $242 million. As a result of the repurchases, we recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $19 million including premiums and write-off of deferred financing fees.
Also in the first quarter of 2015, we issued $350 million of 5.5% senior notes due March 1, 2025. The net proceeds from the issuance of these notes and cash on hand were used to fund the repurchases of the 2018 Notes and all related costs and expenses. We deferred approximately $6 million of debt issuance costs that are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the notes. As of March 31, 2016, these notes were recorded on the accompanying consolidated balance sheet at $344 million.
CREDIT FACILITY
Taking into account the most recent borrowing base calculation delivered under the credit facility, which reflects trade receivables and inventory as of March 31, 2016, and outstanding letters of credit, borrowings available under the credit facility were approximately $347 million, including $50 million for CGC. As of March 31, 2016 and during the quarter then-ended, there were no borrowings under the facility. Had there been any borrowings as of that date, the applicable interest rate would have been 1.88% for loans in the US and 2.15% for loans in Canada. Outstanding letters of credit totaled $49 million as of March 31, 2016.
The fair value of our debt was approximately $2.251 billion as of March 31, 2016 and $2.295 billion as of December 31, 2015. The fair values were based on quoted prices for identical or similar liabilities in markets that are not active or valuation models in which all significant inputs and value drivers are observable and, as a result, are classified as Level 2 inputs. See Note 9 for further discussion on fair value measurements and classifications.
As of March 31, 2016, we were in compliance with the covenants contained in our credit facilities.
