The fair value of the debt as of December 31, 2018 was $4,305 million, of which $2,020 million was classified as Level 1 and $2,285 million was classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value of the debt as of December 31, 2017 was $4,816 million, of which $2,647 million was classified as Level 1 and $2,169 million was classified as Level 2. The Level 1 debt was valued using quoted prices in active markets. The Level 2 debt was valued using bid evaluation pricing models or quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics. The fair value of the asset financing arrangements approximates carrying value, since the debt is primarily issued at a floating rate, may be prepaid any time at par without penalty, and the remaining life is short-term in nature. The following table outlines the Company’s principal payment obligations on debt (excluding capital leases) for the next five years and thereafter:

ABL Facility In October 2015, the Company entered into the Second Amended and Restated Revolving Loan Credit Agreement (the “ABL Facility”) among XPO and certain of XPO’s U.S. and Canadian wholly owned subsidiaries, as borrowers, the other credit parties from time to time party thereto, the lenders party thereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. (“MSSF”), as agent for such lenders. The ABL Facility, which replaced XPO’s then-existing Amended Credit Agreement, provides commitments of up to $1.0 billion and matures on October 30, 2020. Up to $350 million of the ABL Facility is available for issuance of letters of credit, and up to $50 million of the ABL Facility is available for swing line loans. Total unamortized debt issuance costs related to the ABL Facility classified in Other long-term assets as of December 31, 2018 and 2017 were $4 million and $6 million, respectively. Availability on the ABL Facility is equal to the borrowing base less advances and outstanding letters of credit. The borrowing base includes a fixed percentage of: (i) eligible U.S. and Canadian accounts receivable; plus (ii) any eligible U.S. and Canadian rolling stock and equipment. As of December 31, 2018, the borrowing base was $934 million and availability was $704 million, after considering outstanding letters of credit of $230 million. A maximum of 20% of the borrowing base can be attributable to the equipment and rolling stock in the aggregate. As of December 31, 2018, the Company was in compliance with the ABL Facility’s financial covenants. The ABL Facility is secured on a first lien basis by the assets of the credit parties which constitute ABL Facility priority collateral and on a second lien basis by certain other assets. ABL Facility priority collateral consists primarily of U.S. and Canadian accounts receivable, as well as any U.S. and Canadian rolling stock and equipment included by XPO in the borrowing base. The Company’s borrowings under the ABL Facility will bear interest at a rate equal to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or a Base Rate, as defined in the agreement, plus an applicable margin of 1.50% to 2.00%, in the case of LIBOR loans, and 0.50% to 1.00%, in the case of Base Rate loans. The ABL Facility contains representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and events of default customary for agreements of this nature. Among other things, the covenants in the ABL Facility limit the Company’s ability to, with certain exceptions: incur indebtedness; grant liens; engage in certain mergers, consolidations, acquisitions and dispositions; make certain investments and restricted payments; and enter into certain transactions with affiliates. In certain circumstances, such as if availability is below certain thresholds, the ABL Facility also requires the Company to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the ABL Facility) of not less than 1.00. As of December 31, 2018, the Company was compliant with this financial covenant. If the Company defaults on one or more covenants under the ABL Facility and continues to default, the commitments may be terminated and the principal amount outstanding, together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owed, may be declared immediately due and payable. Certain subsidiaries acquired by the Company in the future may be excluded from some of the covenant restrictions. Term Loan Facility In October 2015, XPO entered into a Senior Secured Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”) that provided for a single borrowing of $1.6 billion. The Term Loan Credit Agreement was issued at an original issue discount of $32 million. In February 2018, the Company entered into a Refinancing Amendment (Amendment No. 3 to the Credit Agreement) (the “Third Amendment”), by and among XPO, its subsidiaries signatory thereto, as guarantors, the lenders party thereto and MSSF, in its capacity as administrative agent, amending that certain Senior Secured Term Loan Credit Agreement, dated as of October 30, 2015 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, including by that certain Incremental and Refinancing Amendment (Amendment No. 1 to the Credit Agreement), dated as of August 25, 2016, and by that certain Refinancing Amendment (Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement), dated March 10, 2017, the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”). P ursuant to the Third Amendment, the outstanding $1,494 million principal amount of term loans under the Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Former Term Loans”) were replaced with $1,503 million in aggregate principal amount of new term loans (the “Present Term Loans”). The Present Term Loans have substantially similar terms as the Former Term Loans, except with respect to the interest rate and maturity date applicable to the Present Term Loans, prepayment premiums in connection with certain voluntary prepayments and certain other amendments to the restrictive covenants. Proceeds from the Present Term Loans were used to refinance the Former Term Loans and to pay interest, fees and expenses in connection therewith. The interest rate margin applicable to the Present Term Loans was reduced from 1.25% to 1.00%, in the case of base rate loans, and from 2.25% to 2.00%, in the case of LIBOR loans (with the LIBOR floor remaining at 0.0%). The interest rate on the Present Term Loans was 4.51% as of December 31, 2018. The Present Term Loans will mature on February 23, 2025. The refinancing resulted in a debt extinguishment charge of $10 million, which was recognized in 2018. In March 2017, the Company entered into a Refinancing Amendment (Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement) (the “Second Amendment”), by and among XPO, its subsidiaries signatory thereto, as guarantors, the lenders party thereto and MSSF, in its capacity as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), amending the Senior Secured Term Loan Credit Agreement dated as of October 30, 2015 (as amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, including by the Incremental and Refinancing Amendment (Amendment No. 1 to the Credit Agreement) (the “First Amendment”), dated as of August 25, 2016, the “Term Loan Credit Agreement.)” P ursuant to the Second Amendment, the outstanding $1,482 million principal amount of term loans under the Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Existing Term Loans”) were replaced with $1,494 million in aggregate principal amount of new term loans (the “Current Term Loans”). The Current Term Loans have substantially similar terms as the Existing Term Loans, other than the applicable interest rate and prepayment premiums in respect to certain voluntary prepayments. Proceeds from the Current Term Loans were used primarily to refinance the Existing Term Loans and to pay interest, fees and expenses in connection therewith. The interest rate margin applicable to the Current Term Loans was reduced from 2.25% to 1.25%, in the case of base rate loans, and from 3.25% to 2.25%, in the case of LIBOR loans and the LIBOR floor was reduced from 1.0% to 0%. The refinancing resulted in a debt extinguishment charge of $8 million in 2017. In August 2016, the Company entered into a Refinancing Amendment (the “First Amendment”), pursuant to which the outstanding $1,592 million principal amount of term loans under the Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Old Term Loans”) were replaced with a like aggregate principal amount of new term loans (the “New Term Loans”). The New Term Loans have substantially similar terms as the Old Term Loans, other than the applicable interest rate and prepayment premiums in respect to certain voluntary prepayments. Of the $1,592 million of term loans that were refinanced, $1,197 million were exchanged and represent a non-cash financing activity. The interest rate margin applicable to the New Term Loans was reduced from 3.50% to 2.25%, in the case of base rate loans, and from 4.50% to 3.25%, in the case of LIBOR loans. In connection with this refinancing, various lenders exited the syndicate and the Company recognized a debt extinguishment loss of $18 million in 2016. In addition, pursuant to the First Amendment, the Company borrowed $400 million of Incremental Term B-1 Loans (the “Incremental Term B-1 Loans”) and an additional $50 million of Incremental Term B-2 Loans (the “Incremental Term B-2 Loans”). The New Term Loans, Incremental Term B-1 Loans and Incremental Term B-2 Loans all have identical terms, other than with respect to the original issue discounts, and will mature on October 30, 2021. Commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016, the Company must prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Term Loan Facility equal to (a) 50% of Excess Cash Flow, as defined in the agreement, if any, for the most recent fiscal year ended, minus (b) the sum of (i) all voluntary prepayments of loans during such fiscal year and (ii) all voluntary prepayments of loans under the ABL Facility or any other revolving credit facilities during such fiscal year to the extent accompanied by a corresponding permanent reduction in the commitments under the credit agreement or any other revolving credit facilities in the case of each of the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii), to the extent such prepayments are funded with internally generated cash flow, as defined in the agreement; provided, further, that (x) the Excess Cash Flow percentage shall be 25% if the Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio of Borrower, as defined in the agreement, for the fiscal year was less than or equal to 3.00:1.00 and greater than 2.50:1.00, and (y) the Excess Cash Flow percentage shall be 0% if the Company’s Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio for the fiscal year was less than or equal to 2.50:1.00. The remaining principal is due at maturity. As of December 31, 2018, the Company’s Consolidated Secured Net Leverage Ratio was less than 2.50:1.00; therefore, no excess cash payment was required. Senior Notes In July 2018, the Company redeemed $400 million of the then $1.6 billion outstanding Senior Notes due 2022 that were originally issued in 2015. The redemption price for the Senior Notes due 2022 was 103.25% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The redemption was primarily funded using proceeds from the settlement of the forward sale agreements, described in Note 13—Stockholders’ Equity. In connection with the redemption, we recognized a loss on debt extinguishment of $17 million in 2018. In December 2017, the Company redeemed all of its outstanding senior notes due June 2021 (the “Senior Notes due 2021”) that were originally issued in 2015. The redemption price for the Senior Notes due 2021 was 102.875% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The redemption was funded using cash on hand at the date of the redemption. The loss on debt extinguishment of $23 million was recognized in 2017. In August 2017, the Company redeemed all of its outstanding 7.25% senior notes due 2018 (“Senior Notes due 2018”). The Senior Notes due 2018 were assumed in connection with the Company’s 2015 acquisition of Con-way, Inc. (“Con-way”). The redemption price for the Senior Notes due 2018 was 102.168% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The redemption was funded using cash on hand at the date of the redemption. The loss on debt extinguishment of $5 million was recognized in 2017. The Senior Notes bear interest payable semiannually, in cash in arrears. The Senior Notes due 2023 mature on September 1, 2023. The Senior Notes due 2022 mature on June 15, 2022. The Senior Notes are guaranteed by each of the Company’s direct and indirect wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries (other than certain excluded subsidiaries) that are obligors under, or guarantee obligations under, the Company’s ABL Facility (or certain replacements thereof) or guarantee certain capital markets indebtedness of the Company or any guarantor of the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes and the guarantees thereof are unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company and the guarantors. Among other things, the covenants of the Senior Notes limit the Company’s ability to, with certain exceptions: incur indebtedness or issue disqualified stock; grant liens; pay dividends or make distributions in respect of capital stock; make certain investments or other restricted payments; prepay or repurchase subordinated debt; sell or transfer assets; engage in certain mergers, consolidations, acquisitions and dispositions; and enter into certain transactions with affiliates. Senior Debentures In conjunction with the Company’s acquisition of Con-way, the Company assumed Con-way’s 6.70% Senior Debentures due 2034 (the “Senior Debentures”) with an aggregate principal amount of $300 million. The Senior Debentures bear interest payable semiannually, in cash in arrears, and mature on May 1, 2034. In accordance with ASC 805 “Business Combinations,” the Senior Debentures were recorded at fair value on the acquisition date, resulting in a fair value discount of $101 million on October 30, 2015. Including amortization of the fair value adjustment, interest expense on the Senior Debentures is recognized at an annual effective interest rate of 10.96%. Convertible Senior Notes The Convertible Senior Notes bore interest payable semi-annually, in cash in arrears, and matured on October 1, 2017. During the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company issued an aggregate of approximately three million shares of the Company’s common stock to certain holders of the Convertible Senior Notes in connection with the conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes. The conversions were allocated to long-term debt and equity in the amounts of $49 million and $50 million, respectively. A loss on conversion of $1 million was recorded as part of these transactions. Certain of these transactions represented induced conversions pursuant to which the Company paid the holder a market-based premium in cash. The negotiated market-based premiums, in addition to the difference between the current fair value and the book value of the Convertible Senior Notes, were reflected in interest expense. Trade Securitization Program In October 2017, XPO Logistics Europe SA (“XPO Logistics Europe”), in which the Company holds an 86.25% controlling interest, entered into a European trade receivables securitization program for a term of three years co-arranged by Crédit Agricole and HSBC. Under the terms of the program, XPO Logistics Europe, or one of its wholly-owned subsidiaries in the United Kingdom or France, sells trade receivables to XPO Collections Designated Activity Company Limited (“XCDAL”), a wholly-owned bankruptcy remote special purpose entity of XPO Logistics Europe. The receivables are funded by senior variable funding notes denominated in the same currency as the corresponding receivables. XCDAL is considered a variable interest entity and it is consolidated by XPO Logistics Europe based on its control of the entity’s activities. The receivables balance under this program are reported as Accounts receivable in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and the related notes are included in the Company’s Long-term debt. The receivables securitization program provides additional liquidity to fund XPO Logistics Europe’s operations. The receivables securitization program contains representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, termination events, events of default, indemnities and other obligations on the part of XPO Logistics Europe, certain of its subsidiaries and XCDAL, which are customary for transactions of this nature. In the first quarter of 2018, the aggregate maximum amount available under the program was increased from €270 million to €350 million (approximately $401 million as of December 31, 2018). The weighted-average interest rate as of December 31, 2018 was 1.09%. Charges for administrative fees and commitment fees, the latter of which is based on a percentage of the unused amounts available, were not material to the Company’s results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017. Additionally, in the fourth quarter of 2018, the program was amended and a portion of the receivables transferred from XCDAL are now accounted for as sales, see Note 2—Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies. As of December 31, 2018, the remaining borrowing capacity, which considers receivables that are collateral for the notes as well as receivables which have been sold, was $0. Unsecured Credit Facility In December 2018, the Company entered into a $500 million unsecured credit agreement (“Unsecured Credit Agreement”) with Citibank, N.A., which matures on December 23, 2019. As of December 31, 2018, the Company had borrowed $250 million under the Unsecured Credit Agreement. The Company made a second borrowing of $250 million in January 2019. The Company used the proceeds of both borrowings to finance a portion of its share repurchases as described in Note 13—Stockholders’ Equity. The Company’s borrowings under the Unsecured Credit Agreement will initially bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR or Alternate Base Rate (“ABR”) plus an applicable margin of 3.50%, in the case of LIBOR loans, and 2.50% in the case of ABR loans. The margin is subject to two increases, of 50 basis points each, if any amounts remain outstanding under the Unsecured Credit Agreement on certain dates. The interest rate on outstanding borrowings as of December 31, 2018 was 6.01%. Asset Financing The asset financing arrangements are unsecured and are used to purchase trucks in Europe. The financing arrangements are denominated in USD, EUR, GBP and Romanian New Lei, with primarily floating interest rates. As of December 31, 2018, interest rates on asset financing range from 0.53% to 4.97%, with a weighted average interest rate of 1.47%, and initial terms range from five years to 10 years.
