  • Term Loan Agreement due October 2014

        The Company entered into a $1.8 billion term loan facility, dated as of October 1, 2007, and subsequently amended as of December 28, 2007.

        On August 30, 2013, the Company repaid the remaining amount of $170.3 million under this loan using part of the proceeds from the Term Loan due August 2018.

  • Term Loan due August 2018

        On August 30, 2013, the Company entered into a $600 million term loan agreement due August 30, 2018 and used part of the proceeds to repay the outstanding balances of the term loan due October 2014 and the Asia Term Loans in full amounting to $170.3 million and $374.5 million, respectively. The remaining $55.2 million was used to repay part of the term loan due March 2019 and upfront bank fees. This loan is repayable in quarterly installments of $3.75 million, which will commence in December 2014 through June 2018, with the remaining amount due at maturity.

        Borrowings under this term loan bear interest, at the Company's option, either at (i) LIBOR plus the applicable margin for LIBOR loans ranging between 1.00% and 2.00%, based on the Company's credit ratings or (ii) the base rate (the greatest of the agent's prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and LIBOR for a one-month interest period plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin ranging between 0.00% and 1.00%, based on the Company's credit rating.

        This term loan is unsecured, and contains customary restrictions on the Company's and its subsidiaries' ability to (i) incur certain debt, (ii) make certain investments, (iii) make certain acquisitions of other entities, (iv) incur liens, (v) dispose of assets, (vi) make non-cash distributions to shareholders, and (vii) engage in transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and limitations. This term loan agreement also requires that the Company maintain a maximum ratio of total indebtedness to EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization), and a minimum interest coverage ratio, as defined therein, during its term. As of March 31, 2014, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under this term loan agreement.

  • Term Loan Agreement due March 2019 and Revolving Line of Credit

        On October 19, 2011, the Company entered into a five-year $2.0 billion Credit Facility consisting of a $1.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility and a $500.0 million term loan, which was due to expire in October 2016. The Revolving Credit Facility due 2016 replaced the Company's then existing $2.0 billion revolving credit facility and the $500.0 million term loan refinanced the outstanding amount of its $500.0 million tranche under the Company's $1.7 billion term loan due October 2014 (referred to above). During fiscal year 2013, the Company increased the limit on the term loan by $50 million and borrowed the entire incremental amount.

        On March 31, 2014, the Company extended the maturity date of this revolving credit facility and term loan to March 2019, and borrowed an incremental amount of $63.4 million under the term loan thereby increasing the total amount outstanding under the term loan to $500 million. Quarterly repayments of principal under this term loan will commence on June 30, 2014 in the amount of $6.3 million up to March 31, 2016 and will increase to $9.4 million thereafter with the remainder due upon maturity. Upon extension of this revolving credit facility and term loan, borrowings bear interest, at the Company's option, either at (i) LIBOR plus the applicable margin for LIBOR loans ranging between 1.125% and 2.125%, based on the Company's credit ratings or (ii) the base rate (the greatest of the agent's prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and LIBOR for a one-month interest period plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin ranging between 0.125% and 1.125%, based on the Company's credit rating. The Company is required to pay a quarterly commitment fee ranging between 0.15% and 0.40% per annum on the daily unused amount of the $1.5 billion Revolving Credit Facility based on the Company's credit rating.

        This Credit Facility is unsecured, and contains customary restrictions on the Company's and its subsidiaries' ability to (i) incur certain debt, (ii) make certain investments, (iii) make certain acquisitions of other entities, (iv) incur liens, (v) dispose of assets, (vi) make non-cash distributions to shareholders, and (vii) engage in transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and limitations. This Credit Facility also requires that the Company maintain a maximum ratio of total indebtedness to EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization), and a minimum interest coverage ratio, as defined therein, during its term. As of March 31, 2014, the Company was in compliance with the covenants under this loan agreement.

  • Notes due February 2020 and February 2023

        On February 20, 2013, the Company issued $500.0 million of 4.625% Notes due February 15, 2020 and $500.0 million of 5.000% Notes due February 15, 2023 (collectively the "Notes") in a private offering pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act. In July 2013, the Company exchanged these notes for new notes with substantially similar terms and completed the registration of these notes with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $990.6 million from the issuance and used those proceeds, together with $9.4 million of cash on hand, to repay $1.0 billion of outstanding borrowings under its term loan due October 2014.

        Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually, which commenced on August 15, 2013. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company, rank equally with all of the Company's other existing and future senior and unsecured debt obligations, and are guaranteed, jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally on an unsecured basis, by each of the Company's 100% owned subsidiaries that guarantees indebtedness under, or is a borrower under, the Company's Term Loan Agreement and Revolving Line of Credit.

        At any time prior to maturity, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus an applicable premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable redemption date. Upon the occurrence of a change of control repurchase event (as defined in the Notes indenture), the Company must offer to repurchase the Notes at a repurchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable repurchase date.

        The indenture governing the Notes contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of the Company and certain of the Company's subsidiaries to create liens; enter into sale-leaseback transactions; create, incur, issue, assume or guarantee any funded debt; and consolidate or merge with, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the Company's assets to, another person. These covenants are subject to a number of significant limitations and exceptions set forth in the indenture. The indenture also provides for customary events of default, including, but not limited to, cross defaults to certain specified other debt of the Company and its subsidiaries. In the case of an event of default arising from specified events of bankruptcy or insolvency, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice. If any other event of default under the agreement occurs or is continuing, the applicable trustee or holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare all of the Notes to be due and payable immediately. As of March 31, 2014, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in the indenture governing the Notes.

The Company, at its election, may convert the loan (in whole or in part) to bear interest at the higher of the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50% or the prime rate plus 1.00%. Principal payments of $500,000 are due quarterly with the balance due on the maturity date. The Company has the right to prepay any part of the loan without penalty.
