2.125% Junior Subordinated Convertible Debentures
 
The Company's remaining $575.0 million principal amount of 2.125% junior subordinated convertible debentures due December 15, 2037, are subordinated in right of payment to any future senior debt of the Company (including the Company's senior subordinated convertible debentures) and are effectively subordinated in right of payment to the liabilities of the Company's subsidiaries.  The debentures are convertible, subject to certain conditions, into cash, shares of the Company's common stock or a combination thereof, at the Company's election, at an initial conversion rate of 29.2783 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of debentures, representing an initial conversion price of approximately $34.16 per share of common stock.  As of June 30, 2016, the holders of the debentures had the right to convert their debentures between July 1, 2016 and September 30, 2016 because for at least 20 trading days during the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on June 30, 2016, the Company's common stock had a last reported sale price greater than 130% of the conversion price. As of June 30, 2016, the Company has classified the junior subordinated convertible debentures as long-term on the consolidated balance sheets as the Company has the intent and ability to refinance the obligation on a long-term basis. As of June 30, 2016, a holder could realize more economic value by selling its debentures in the over the counter market than from converting its debentures. As a result of cash dividends paid since the issuance of the debentures, the conversion rate has been adjusted to 41.4433 shares of common stock per $1,000 of principal amount of debentures, representing a conversion price of approximately $24.13 per share of common stock. The if-converted value of the debentures exceeded the principal amount by $634.6 million at June 30, 2016. The debentures include a contingent interest mechanism that begins in December 2017. The terms of the contingent interest include a 0.25% additional interest rate if the debentures are trading at less than $400 and a 0.5% additional interest rate if the debentures are trading at greater than $1,500. Based on the current trading price of the debentures, the contingent interest rate beginning in December 2017 would be 0.5% of the average trading price.
 
As the debentures can be settled in cash upon conversion, for accounting purposes, the debentures were bifurcated into a liability component and an equity component, which were both initially recorded at fair value.  The carrying value of the equity component at June 30, 2016 and at March 31, 2016 was $411.2 million.  The estimated fair value of the liability component of the debentures at the issuance date was $163.8 million, resulting in a debt discount of $411.2 million.  The unamortized debt discount was $376.9 million at June 30, 2016 and $378.3 million at March 31, 2016.  The remaining period over which the unamortized debt discount will be recognized as non-cash interest expense is 21.46 years.  In the three months ended June 30, 2016, the Company recognized $1.4 million in non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of the debt discount compared to $1.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2015.  The Company recognized $3.1 million of interest expense related to the 2.125% coupon on the debentures in each of the three month periods ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015. The effective interest rate of the debentures is 9.1%.
