Senior Notes

In March 2021, pursuant to cash tender offers and make-whole redemptions, FIS purchased and redeemed an aggregate principal amount of $5.1 billion in Senior Notes, comprised of $3,529 million in Senior USD Notes, $600 million in Senior Euro Notes, $871 million in Senior GBP Notes, and $66 million in Senior Euro Floating Rate Notes, with interest rates ranging from 0.0% to 5.0% and maturities ranging from 2021 to 2029, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $528 million, recorded in Other income (expense), net on the consolidated statement of earnings (loss), relating to tender premiums, make-whole amounts, and fees; the write-off of unamortized bond discounts and debt issuance costs; and losses on related derivative instruments. The Company funded the purchase and redemption of the Senior Notes with proceeds on borrowings from the issuance and sale of Senior USD Notes on March 2, 2021.

On March 2, 2021, FIS completed the issuance and sale of Senior USD Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $5.5 billion with interest rates ranging from 0.4% to 3.1% and maturities ranging from 2023 to 2041 ("new Senior USD Notes"). The proceeds from the debt issuance were subsequently used to purchase and redeem the Senior Notes discussed above with the remainder used to repay a portion of our commercial paper notes. The new Senior USD Notes are subject to customary covenants, including, among others, customary events of default. The new Senior USD Notes also include redemption provisions at the option of FIS, similar to the other Senior Notes.

Revolving Credit Facility

On March 2, 2021, FIS entered into an amendment to the Revolving Credit Facility agreement to amend certain covenant provisions, revise lender commitments for certain counterparties, and extend the scheduled maturity date to March 2, 2026. As of March 31, 2022, the borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility was $1,980 million (net of $2,682 million of capacity backstopping our commercial paper notes).

Fair Value of Debt
The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is estimated to be approximately $437 million lower than the carrying value and $570 million higher than the carrying value, excluding the fair value of the interest rate swaps and unamortized discounts, as of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.
