Debt issuance costs that were deducted from the carrying amounts of the senior notes totaled $9.5 million and $13.3 million at September 30, 2017 and 2016, respectively. These costs are capitalized into inventory as they are amortized. As of September 30, 2017, maturities of consolidated notes payable, assuming the mortgage repurchase facility is not extended or renewed, are $829.6 million in fiscal 2018, $500.8 million in fiscal 2019, $500.7 million in fiscal 2020, none in fiscal 2021, $350.0 million in fiscal 2022 and $700.0 million thereafter. Homebuilding: The Company has a senior unsecured revolving credit facility which was amended in September 2017 to increase its capacity from $975 million to $1.275 billion and to extend its maturity date to September 25, 2022. The uncommitted accordion feature was also amended to permit an increase in the size of the facility to $1.9 billion, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments. The facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit with a sublimit equal to approximately 50% of the revolving credit commitment. Letters of credit issued under the facility reduce the available borrowing capacity. The interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility may be based on either the Prime Rate or London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable margin, as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility. Borrowings and repayments under the facility were $835 million during fiscal 2017. At September 30, 2017, there were no borrowings outstanding and $94.3 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility. The Company’s revolving credit facility imposes restrictions on its operations and activities, including requiring the maintenance of a maximum allowable ratio of debt to tangible net worth and a borrowing base restriction if the Company’s ratio of debt to tangible net worth exceeds a certain level. These covenants are measured as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility and are reported to the lenders quarterly. A failure to comply with these financial covenants could allow the lending banks to terminate the availability of funds under the revolving credit facility or cause any outstanding borrowings to become due and payable prior to maturity. The credit agreement governing the facility and the indenture governing the senior notes also impose restrictions on the creation of secured debt and liens. At September 30, 2017, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants, limitations and restrictions of its revolving credit facility and public debt obligations. The Company has an automatically effective universal shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in August 2015, registering debt and equity securities that the Company may issue from time to time in amounts to be determined. On May 15, 2017, the Company repaid $350 million principal amount of its 4.75% senior notes, which were due on that date. The key terms of the Company’s senior notes outstanding as of September 30, 2017 are summarized below.

_____________
(1) | The Company may redeem the notes in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to the greater of 100% of their principal amount or the present value of the remaining scheduled payments on the redemption date, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
(2) | Interest is payable semi-annually on each of the series of senior notes. The annual effective interest rate is calculated after giving effect to the amortization of debt issuance costs.
All series of senior notes and borrowings under the revolving credit facility are senior obligations and rank pari passu in right of payment to all existing and future unsecured indebtedness and senior to all existing and future indebtedness expressly subordinated to them. The senior notes and borrowings under the revolving credit facility are guaranteed by entities that hold approximately 92% of the Company’s assets. Upon the occurrence of both a change of control of the Company and a ratings downgrade event, as defined in the indenture governing its senior notes, the Company would be required in certain circumstances to offer to repurchase these notes at 101% of their principal amount, along with accrued and unpaid interest. Also, a change of control as defined in the revolving credit facility would constitute an event of default under the revolving credit facility, which could result in the acceleration of any borrowings outstanding under the facility and the termination of the commitments thereunder. Effective August 1, 2017, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of the Company’s debt securities effective through July 31, 2018. All of the $500 million authorization was remaining at September 30, 2017. Financial Services: The Company’s mortgage subsidiary, DHI Mortgage, has a mortgage repurchase facility that is accounted for as a secured financing. The mortgage repurchase facility provides financing and liquidity to DHI Mortgage by facilitating purchase transactions in which DHI Mortgage transfers eligible loans to the counterparties against the transfer of funds by the counterparties, thereby becoming purchased loans. DHI Mortgage then has the right and obligation to repurchase the purchased loans upon their sale to third-party purchasers in the secondary market or within specified time frames from 45 to 60 days in accordance with the terms of the mortgage repurchase facility. In February 2017, the mortgage repurchase facility was amended to increase its capacity to $600 million and extend its maturity date to February 23, 2018. The capacity of the facility increases, without requiring additional commitments, to $725 million for approximately 30 days at each quarter end and to $800 million for approximately 45 days at fiscal year end. The capacity can also be increased to $1.0 billion subject to the availability of additional commitments. As of September 30, 2017, $540.1 million of mortgage loans held for sale with a collateral value of $520.0 million were pledged under the mortgage repurchase facility. As a result of advance paydowns totaling $100.0 million, DHI Mortgage had an obligation of $420.0 million outstanding under the mortgage repurchase facility at September 30, 2017 at a 3.3% annual interest rate. The mortgage repurchase facility is not guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s homebuilding debt. The facility contains financial covenants as to the mortgage subsidiary’s minimum required tangible net worth, its maximum allowable ratio of debt to tangible net worth and its minimum required liquidity. These covenants are measured and reported to the lenders monthly. At September 30, 2017, DHI Mortgage was in compliance with all of the conditions and covenants of the mortgage repurchase facility. In the past, DHI Mortgage has been able to renew or extend its mortgage credit facility at a sufficient capacity and on satisfactory terms prior to its maturity and obtain temporary additional commitments through amendments to the credit facility during periods of higher than normal volumes of mortgages held for sale. The liquidity of the Company’s financial services business depends upon its continued ability to renew and extend the mortgage repurchase facility or to obtain other additional financing in sufficient capacities.
