Our $1.20 billion senior credit facility maturing in June 2019, our $1.25 billion term loan maturing in August 2020, our $175.0 million private placement notes maturing in October 2017, our $125.0 million private placement notes maturing in December 2019, our $225.0 million private placement notes maturing in October 2020, our $150.0 million private placement maturing in October 2021, our $125.0 million private placement notes maturing in December 2022, our $200.0 million private placement notes maturing July 2022, our $100.0 million private placement notes maturing in July 2023, and our $150.0 million private placement notes maturing in October 2023 all require us to comply with various financial, reporting and other covenants and restrictions, including a restriction on dividend payments. The financial debt covenants are the same for the senior credit facility, term loan, and the private placement notes. At December 31, 2015, we were in compliance with all of our financial debt covenants. Our senior credit facility, term loan, and the private placement notes rank pari passu to each other and all other unsecured debt obligations.

At December 31, 2015 and 2014, we had $160.4 million and $162.9 million, respectively, committed to outstanding letters of credit under our senior credit facility. The unused portion of the revolving credit facility was $685.8 million and $577.1 million at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

On April 30, 2015, we entered into a note purchase agreement with several institutional purchasers pursuant to which we have issued and sold to the purchasers $200.0 million of our new seven-year 2.72% unsecured senior notes ("Series A") and $100.0 million of our new eight-year 2.79% unsecured senior notes ("Series B"). Closing of the issuance and sale of the notes occurred on July 31, 2015.

The Series A notes bear interest at the fixed rate of 2.72% per annum, and the Series B notes bear interest at the fixed rate of 2.79% per annum. Interest will be payable in arrears semi-annually on January 1 and July 1 beginning on January 1, 2016. The principal of the Series A notes will be payable at the maturity of the notes on July 1, 2022, and the principal of the Series B notes will be payable at the maturity of the notes on July 1, 2023. The notes are unsecured obligations.

The Company entered into a Term Loan Credit Agreement dated as of August 21, 2015 (the "Term Loan Credit Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A., as the Administrative Agent maturing on August 21, 2020. The Term Loan Credit Agreement provides for a term loan credit facility ("Term Loan Credit Facility") under which the Company may obtain loans up to an aggregate amount of $1.5 billion. Borrowings under the Term Loan Credit Facility may bear interest at a Base Rate or Eurodollar Rate, respectively, plus the Applicable Rate. The Base Rate is for any day a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate plus 1/2 of 1.00%, (ii) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by Bank of America as its "prime rate" and (iii) the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00%. The Applicable Rate depends on the consolidated leverage ratio for the Company and its subsidiaries as set forth in the most recent compliance certificate received by the administrative agent. We used the proceeds from the term loan to fund a portion of the purchase price paid for the Shred-it acquisition (see Note 3 - Acquisitions in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information).

On October 1, 2015, we issued and sold to the purchasers $150.0 million of new six-year 2.89% unsecured senior notes and $150.0 million of new eight-year 3.18% unsecured senior notes (collectively, the "Notes"). The Notes bear interest on the unpaid principal thereof from October 1, 2015 at their respective stated rates of interest payable in arrears semi-annually on the first (1st) day of April and October in each year and at maturity, commencing on April 1, 2016. The Notes are unsecured obligations. We used the proceeds from the unsecured senior notes to fund a portion of the purchase price paid for the Shred-it acquisition (see Note 3 - Acquisitions in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information).
