Effective June 30, 2016, the Company amended and extended its $500.0 million multicurrency revolving credit facility for an additional year thorough July 23, 2021. In addition, certain non-extending members of the bank group were replaced with existing and new lenders. The Company has access to the full $500.0 million through July 23, 2021. The facility is unsecured and contains certain affirmative and negative covenants relating to the operations and financial condition of the Company. The most restrictive of these covenants pertain to asset dispositions and prescribed ratios of debt outstanding to total capital not to exceed the ratio of 0.6 to 1.0, and operating income excluding depreciation and amortization to interest expense of not less than 3.0 times. Any breach of any such covenants or restrictions would result in a default under the existing debt agreements that would permit the lenders to declare all borrowings under such debt agreements to be immediately due and payable and through cross default provisions, would entitle the Company's other lenders to accelerate their loans. At December 31, 2016 and 2015, there were no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility.

The Company’s revolving credit facility, term loans and senior notes contain certain affirmative and negative covenants relating to the Company's operations and financial condition. At December 31, 2016, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.

At December 31, 2016, the Company had $549.4 million borrowings available under unused lines of credit, including lines available under its short-term arrangements and revolving credit agreement.
