(1) Interest rates based on outstanding loan balance as of March 31, 2021 and, for variable rate debt, include either LIBOR or EURIBOR plus the applicable margin. (2) Includes $1.9 billion facility and $1.3 billion facility, the vast majority of which is due in 2024. Our $1.9 billion facility accrues interest at LIBOR plus a maximum interest rate margin of 1.30%, which interest was 1.49% as of March 31, 2021 and is subject to a facility fee of a maximum of 0.20%. Our $1.3 billion facility accrues interest at LIBOR plus a maximum interest rate margin of 1.70%, which interest was 1.89% as of March 31, 2021 and is subject to a facility fee of a maximum of 0.30%. (3) At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the weighted average interest rate for total debt was 5.78% and 6.02%, respectively. In March 2021, we amended our $1.55 billion unsecured revolving credit facility due October 2022 and our $1.0 billion unsecured loan due April 2022. These amendments, among other things, extend the maturity date or termination date of certain of the advances and commitments, as applicable, under the facilities held by consenting lenders by 18 months and increase the interest rate margin and/or the facility fee, as applicable, with respect to advances and commitments held by such lenders. Consenting lenders also received a prepayment and commitment reduction equal to 20% of their respective outstanding advances and commitments. Following these amendments, the aggregate revolving capacity of the revolving credit facility is approximately $1.3 billion, with approximately $0.2 billion terminating in October 2022 and approximately $1.1 billion terminating in April 2024 and the aggregate principal balance of the term loan is approximately $0.9 billion, with approximately $0.3 billion maturing in April 2022 and approximately $0.6 billion maturing in October 2023. As of March 31, 2021, our aggregate revolving borrowing capacity was $3.2 billion and was fully utilized through a combination of amounts drawn and letters of credit issued under the facilities. Certain of our surety agreements with third party providers for the benefit of certain agencies and associations that provide travel related bonds, allow the sureties to request collateral. We also have agreements with our credit card processors relating to customer deposits received by us for future voyages. These agreements allow the credit card processors to require us, under certain circumstances, to maintain a reserve that can be satisfied by posting collateral. As of March 31, 2021, we have posted letters of credit as collateral with our sureties and credit card processors, under our revolving credit facilities in the amount of $172.7 million. Executed amendments are in place for the majority of our credit card processors, waiving reserve requirements tied to breach of our financial covenants through at least September 30, 2022, and as such, we do not anticipate any incremental collateral requirements for the processors covered by these waivers in the next 12 months. We have a reserve with a processor where the agreement was amended in the first quarter of 2021, such that proceeds are withheld in reserve, until the sailing takes place or the funds are refunded to the customer. The maximum projected exposure with the processor, including amounts currently withheld and reported in Trade and other receivables, is approximately $170.6 million. The amount and timing are dependent on future factors that are uncertain, such as the date we return to operations, volume and value of future deposits and whether we transfer our business to other processors. If we require additional waivers on the credit card processing agreements and are not able to obtain them, this could lead to the termination of these agreements or the trigger of reserve requirements. In March 2021, we took delivery of Odyssey of the Seas. To finance the purchase, we borrowed $994.1 million under a previously committed unsecured term loan which is 95% guaranteed by Euler Hermes Aktiengesellschaft (“Hermes”), the official export credit agency of Germany. The loan amortizes semi-annually over 12 years and bears interest at a floating rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin of 0.96%. Prior to delivery during the first quarter of 2021, we amended the credit agreement to (i) increase the maximum loan amount under the facility to make available to us a maximum amount equal to the US dollar equivalent of 80% of the vessel purchase price plus 100% of the premium payable to Hermes and (ii) defer the payment of all principal payments due between April 2021 and April 2022, which amounts will be repayable semi-annually over a five year period starting in April 2022. In March 2021, we issued $1.50 billion of senior unsecured notes that mature in 2028, for net proceeds of $1.48 billion. Interest on the senior notes accrues at 5.5% per annum and is payable semi-annually. In March 2021, we extended our binding commitment for a $700.0 million term loan facility by one year. As amended, we may draw on the facility at any time prior to August 12, 2022. Once drawn, the loan will bear interest at LIBOR plus 3.75% and will mature 364 days from funding. In addition, the facility will be guaranteed by RCI Holdings, LLC, our wholly owned subsidiary that owns the equity interests in subsidiaries that own seven of our vessels. We have the ability to increase the capacity of the facility by an additional $300.0 million from time to time subject to the receipt of additional or increased commitments and the issuance of guarantees from additional subsidiaries. During the first quarter of 2021, we repaid in full at maturity £300.0 million of Sterling-denominated notes issued under the Joint HM Treasury and Bank of England’s COVID Corporate Financing Facility. During the first quarter of 2021, we amended $4.9 billion of our non-export credit facilities and certain of our credit card processing agreements to extend the waiver of the financial covenants through and including the third quarter of 2022 or, if earlier, the date falling after January 1, 2022 on which we elect to comply with the modified covenants. Pursuant to the amendments, we have modified the manner in which such covenants are calculated (temporarily in certain cases and permanently in others) as well as the levels at which our net debt to capitalization covenant will be tested during the period commencing immediately following the end of the waiver period and continuing through the end of 2023. As of March 31, 2021, the monthly-tested minimum liquidity covenant was $350 million for the duration of the waiver period. As of the date of these financial statements, we were in compliance with the applicable minimum liquidity covenant. Pursuant to these amendments, the restrictions on paying cash dividends and effectuating share repurchases were extended through and including the third quarter of 2022. As of March 31, 2021, we had one $130.0 million term loan which benefited from a financial covenant waiver through the end of the first quarter of 2021. This term loan was repaid in full in April of 2021 and was reported in Current portion of long-term debt in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2021. During the first quarter of 2021, we also amended $6.3 billion of our export credit facilities to extend the waiver of the financial covenants through and including at least the end of the third quarter of 2022. These amendments defer $1.15 billion of principal payments due between April 2021 and April 2022. The deferred amounts will be repayable semi-annually over a five-year period starting in April 2022. Pursuant to these amendments, we have agreed to implement the same liquidity covenant that applies in our non-export credit facilities. The amendments provide for mandatory prepayment of the deferred amounts upon the taking of certain actions. Subject to a number of carve outs, these include, but are not limited to, the issuance of dividends, the completion of share repurchases, issuances of debt other than for crisis and recovery purposes, the making of loans and the sale of assets other than at arm’s length. For information related to the covenants in our Port of Miami Terminal "A" operating lease agreement, refer to Note 8. Leases. In the fourth quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021, we entered into amendments to our drawn and undrawn ECA facilities to provide for the issuance of guarantees in satisfaction of existing obligations under these facilities. Following issuance (which, in the case of the undrawn facilities, will occur once the debt is drawn), the guarantees will be released under certain circumstances as other debt is repaid or refinanced on an unsecured and unguaranteed basis. In connection with and following the issuance of the guarantees, the guarantor subsidiaries are restricted from issuing additional guarantees in favor of lenders (other than those lenders who are party to the ECA facilities), and certain of the guarantor subsidiaries are restricted from incurring additional debt. In addition, the ECA facilities will benefit from guarantees to be issued by intermediary parent companies of subsidiaries that take delivery of any new vessels subject to export-credit backed financing. Under certain of our agreements, the contractual interest rate, facility fee and/or export credit agency fee vary with our debt rating. On February 25, 2021, S&P Global downgraded our senior unsecured rating from B+ to B, which had no financial impact, and downgraded our $3.32 billion Senior Secured Notes and Silversea Notes from BB to BB-. This downgrade had no impact on the terms of the notes. Except for the term loans we incurred to acquire Celebrity Flora, Azamara Pursuit and Silver Moon, all of our unsecured ship financing term loans are guaranteed by the export credit agency in the respective country in which the ship is constructed. The term loan incurred to acquire Azamara Pursuit was repaid in full in April of 2021. For the majority of the loans as of March 31, 2021, we pay to the applicable export credit agency, depending on the financing agreement, an upfront fee of 2.35% to 5.48% of the maximum loan amount in consideration for these guarantees. For one of our loans, we pay to the applicable export credit agency a fee of 2.97% per annum, based on the outstanding loan balance. The fee is paid semi-annually over the term of the loan (subject to adjustments based upon our credit ratings).We amortize the fees that are paid upfront over the life of the loan and those that are paid semi-annually over each respective payment period. We classify these fees within Amortization of debt issuance costs in our consolidated statements of cash flows. Prior to the loan being drawn, we present these fees within Other assets in our consolidated balance sheets. Once the loan is drawn, such fees are classified as a discount to the related loan, or contra-liability account, within Current portion of long-term debt or long-term debt. The following is a schedule of annual maturities on our total debt net of debt issuance costs, and including finance leases and commercial paper, as of March 31, 2021 for each of the next five years (in thousands):
