The Company’s existing credit facility maturity date is December 21, 2020. The credit facility includes a $450 million revolving line of credit as well as provisions allowing for the increase of the credit facility commitment amount by an additional $250 million, if necessary, with the consent of the lenders. The bank syndication supporting the new facility is comprised of a diverse group of nine banks led by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. 
 
At December 31, 2016, the Company had approximately $265 million available to borrow under the Credit Facility, and a $250 million increase option, in addition to $51.8 million of cash on hand. At December 31, 2016, the Company had $180 million of outstanding borrowings under the credit facility in addition to outstanding letters of credit of $4.6 million. The Company classified $20.0 million as the current portion of long-term debt as of December 31, 2016, as the Company intends to repay this amount within the next twelve months; however, the Company has no contractual obligation to repay such amount during the next twelve months. 
 
The Credit Facility requires, as determined by certain financial ratios, a facility fee ranging from 12.5 to 27.5 basis points per annum on the unused portion. The terms of the facility provide that interest on borrowings may be calculated at a spread over the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or based on the prime rate, at the Company’s election. The facility is secured by the unlimited guaranty of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries and a 65% pledge of the material foreign subsidiaries’ share equity. The financial covenants of the Credit Facility include a leverage ratio and an interest coverage ratio. The weighted average interest rates were 1.61% and 1.41% for the three-month periods ending December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively. At December 31, 2016, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants.
