Senior Notes

 

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had senior notes with an aggregate principal amount of $2,850.0 million and $2,350.0 million outstanding, respectively, and were in compliance with our financial and other covenants.

 

On March 3, 2023, we completed an issuance of $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.75% senior notes due in 2033 (the "2033 Senior Notes"). The 2033 Senior Notes mature on April 1, 2033 and accrue interest at a fixed rate of 5.75% per annum. Interest is payable semiannually on April 1st and October 1st of each year, beginning October 1, 2023. The 2033 Senior Notes were issued at a discount of $4.7 million and we incurred debt issuance costs of $5.5 million. The original issuance discount and debt issuance costs were recorded in "Long-term debt" in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets and these costs will be amortized to "Interest expense" in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations over the life of the 2033 Senior Notes. The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2033 Senior Notes were utilized to partially repay the Syndicated Revolving Credit Facility and for general corporate purposes. The indenture governing the 2033 Senior Notes restricts our ability to, among other things, create certain liens, enter into sale/leaseback transactions and consolidate with, sell, lease, convey or otherwise transfer all or substantially all of our assets, or merge with or into, any other person or entity.

 

Credit Facilities

 

We have a syndicated revolving credit facility ("Syndicated Revolving Credit Facility") with a borrowing capacity of $1,000.0 million with Bank of America N.A., HSBC Bank USA, N.A., JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, Citibank, N.A., Morgan Stanley Bank, N.A., TD Bank, N.A., Goldman Sachs Bank USA, and the Northern Trust Company. The Syndicated Revolving Credit Facility  may be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital needs and capital expenditures, acquisitions, dividend payments, and the share repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program"). As of June 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all financial and other debt covenants under our Syndicated Revolving Credit Facility. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the available capacity under the Syndicated Revolving Credit Facility was $995.5 million and $5.6 million, which takes into account outstanding letters of credit of $4.5 million and $4.4 million, respectively. 

 

On April 5, 2023 ,we entered into the Fifth Amendment (the "Amendment") to the committed senior unsecured Syndicated Revolving Credit Facility with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent. The Amendment does not change the current borrowing capacity of $1,000.0 million, but does extend the maturity date to  April 5, 2028 . Interest on borrowings under the Amendment is payable at an interest rate of SOFR plus  100.0 to  162.5 basis points, depending upon our public debt rating. A commitment fee on any unused commitment is payable periodically and  may range from  8.0 to  17.5 basis points based upon our public debt rating. The Syndicated Revolving Credit Facility, as amended by the Amendment, also contains certain financial and other covenants that, among other things, impose certain restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, and capital expenditures. These covenants place restrictions on mergers, asset sales, sale/leaseback transactions, and certain transactions with affiliates. The financial covenants require that, at the end of any fiscal quarter, we have a consolidated funded debt leverage ratio of less than  3.75 to 1.0 . At our election, the maximum consolidated funded debt leverage ratio could be permitted to increase to  4.50 to 1.0 ( no more than once) and to  4.25 to  1.0 ( no more than once) in connection with the closing of a permitted acquisition. The Syndicated Revolving Credit Facility may be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital needs and capital expenditures, acquisitions, dividend payments and the share repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program"). In connection with the Amendment, we incurred additional debt issuance costs of $1.2 million, which will be amortized to "Interest expense" within the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations over the remaining life of the Credit Facility.
 
We also maintain a  $125.0 million Bilateral Term Loan Facility and a  $275.0 million Bilateral Revolving Credit Facility (together the "Bilateral Credit Facilities") with maturity dates of September 9, 2023 and October 2, 2023, respectively. The Bilateral Credit Facilities carry an interest rate of 135 basis points plus the one-month BSBY and may be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital needs and capital expenditures, acquisitions, dividend payments and the Repurchase Program. As of June 30, 2023, we had no outstanding borrowings under our Bilateral Credit Facilities.
