On June 30, 2017, the Company, and substantially all of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries as guarantors, entered into a $400.0 million senior secured Credit Agreement (the "Term Loan agreement") with Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Agent”), and certain other financial institutions. Loans under the Term Loan Agreement will mature on June 30, 2024 and may be prepaid at any time without premium or penalty other than customary breakage costs with respect to Eurodollar based loans or if the Company engages in certain repricing transactions before December 31, 2017, in which event a 1.0% prepayment premium would be due. The Company’s obligations under the Term Loan Agreement are guaranteed by all of the Company’s domestic restricted subsidiaries and secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of the Company and the guarantors.

Borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement will bear interest, at the Company’s election, at either of the following rates: (a) the sum of the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) plus 2.00%, or (b) the sum of the Base Rate (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) plus 1.00%, with the Eurodollar Rate being subject to a floor of 0.00%. The effective interest rate of the Term Loan on June 30, 2017 was 3.23%. The Term Loan Agreement contains representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, and events of default, which the Company believes are usual and customary for an agreement of this type. Such covenants restrict the Company’s ability, among other matters, to incur debt, create liens on the Company’s assets, make restricted payments or investments or enter into transactions with affiliates.

Upon entering into the Term Loan Agreement on June 30, 2017, the Company used approximately $312.6 million of the proceeds to purchase approximately $296.2 million aggregate principal amount (the “Repurchased Notes”) of the Company’s previously outstanding 2020 Notes, pay accrued interest of approximately $6.4 million on the Repurchased Notes, premiums to repay the debt early of $4.7 million and expenses incurred of approximately $5.3 million in connection with the Term Loan financing and the tender offer for the 2020 Notes.

On June 30, 2017, the Company also delivered a notice of redemption to the holders of the approximately $503.8 million aggregate principal amount of 2020 Notes which remained outstanding after the purchase of the Repurchased Notes. Pursuant to that notice, the Company redeemed on August 1, 2017, approximately $103.8 million aggregate principal amount of 2020 Notes at a redemption price of 101.313%, plus accrued but unpaid interest. The Company financed the redemption through the remaining net proceeds of the Term Loan financing described above, plus available cash.

At June 30, 2017, the fair value of the Term Loan debt was $400.0 million. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair value of the Company's 2020 Notes was $510.7 million and $820.0 million, respectively, based on quoted market prices for the instrument. At June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the fair value of the Company's 2021 Notes was $863.0 million and $861.9 million, respectively, based on quoted market prices for the instrument. The fair value of the Term Loan debt, 2020 Notes and 2021 Notes are considered a Level 2 measure according to the fair value hierarchy.

The Company also maintains a $400.0 million revolving credit facility under which as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had no outstanding loan balances. At June 30, 2017, approximately $225.3 million was available to borrow and outstanding letters of credit were $125.9 million. At December 31, 2016, $195.2 million was available to borrow and outstanding letters of credit were $132.6 million.
