The weighted-average interest rates for the Company’s long-term debt were 3.5% and 3.2% as of September 25, 2015 and March 31, 2015, respectively,

On June 8, 2015, the Company issued $600 million of 4.750% Notes ("Notes") due June 15, 2025 in a private offering pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act, at a discount of 99.213%, and an effective rate of approximately 4.850%. The Company received net proceeds of approximately $595.3 million from the issuance which will be used for general corporate purposes.

The Company incurred approximately $7.9 million of costs in conjunction with the issuance of the Notes. The issuance costs were capitalized and will be amortized over the life of the Notes.

Interest on the Notes is payable semi-annually, commencing on December 15, 2015. 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 March 15, 2025, 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, or permit any other person to consolidate, merge, combine or amalgamate with or into the Company. 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, but upon certain conditions such declaration and its consequences may be rescinded and annulled by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes. As of September 25, 2015, the Company was in compliance with the covenants in the indenture governing the Notes.

In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement under which it has agreed to consummate an offer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission to issue new notes having terms substantially identical to the Notes (except that the new notes will not be subject to restrictions on transfer) in exchange for outstanding Notes. In some circumstances, the Company may be required to file a shelf registration statement to cover resale of the Notes. If the Company fails to satisfy these obligations, the Company may be required to pay additional interest to holders of the Notes under certain circumstances.
