At December 31, 2015 and 2014, the fair value of long-term debt, including the current portion, was approximately $342,602 and $9,323, respectively, which was determined using available market information and methodologies requiring judgment. Since considerable judgment is required in interpreting market information, the fair value of the debt is not necessarily the amount which could be realized in a current market exchange. Senior Unsecured Notes On April 1, 2015, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement pursuant to which it agreed to issue Senior Unsecured Notes (the "Notes") in the aggregate principal amount of $350,000 through a private placement. At December 31, 2015, $349,147, net of debt issuance costs of $853, was outstanding and recorded in Long-term debt, less current portion. The proceeds are being used for general corporate purposes. The Notes, as shown in the table below, have maturities ranging from 10 to 30 years with a weighted average effective interest rate of 3.5%, excluding accretion of original issuance costs, and an average tenure of 19 years. Interest is payable semi-annually. The Notes contain certain affirmative and negative covenants. As of December 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all of its debt covenants. The maturity and interest rates of the Notes are as follows:
| Amount |  | Maturity Date |  | Interest Rate
Series A | $ | 100,000 |  |  | August 20, 2025 |  | 3.15 | %
Series B | 100,000 |  |  | August 20, 2030 |  | 3.35 | %
Series C | 50,000 |  |  | April 1, 2035 |  | 3.61 | %
Series D | 100,000 |  |  | April 1, 2045 |  | 4.02 | %
Revolving Credit Agreement The Company has a line of credit totaling $400,000 through the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), which was entered into on September 12, 2014. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants for credit facilities of this type, including limitations on the Company and its subsidiaries with respect to liens, investments, distributions, mergers and acquisitions, dispositions of assets, transactions with affiliates and a fixed charges coverage ratio and total leverage ratio. As of December 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all of its covenants and had no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement has a five-year term and may be increased, subject to certain conditions, by an additional amount up to $100,000. The interest rate on borrowings is based on either LIBOR or the prime rate, plus a spread based on the Company’s leverage ratio, at the Company’s election. Short-term Borrowings The Company's short-term borrowings included in Amounts due banks were $2,822 and $61,155 at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Amounts due banks included the outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement and the borrowings of foreign subsidiaries at weighted average interest rates of 24.1% and 3.1% at December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively. Capital Leases At December 31, 2015 and 2014, $111 and $198 of capital lease indebtedness was secured by property, plant and equipment, respectively. Other Maturities of long-term debt, including payments under capital leases and amounts due banks, for the five years succeeding December 31, 2015 are $4,284 in 2016, $569 in 2017, $105 in 2018, $104 in 2019, $101 in 2020 and $350,315 thereafter. Total interest paid was $5,631 in 2015, $2,190 in 2014 and $2,864 in 2013. The differences between interest expense and interest paid in 2015 and 2014 is due to an adjustment to the consideration expected to be paid to acquire additional ownership interests of a majority-owned subsidiary and the accretion of the related liability, and the accrual of interest associated with the Notes in 2015.
