During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we made payments totaling $167.1 million to extinguish our Senior Convertible Notes and a $7.5 million scheduled payment on our Term Loan due July 2018. Bank Credit Agreement The Company has a $500 million bank credit facility due July 2018 with a syndicate of banks, including a sublimit of $175 million for letters of credit. As of March 31, 2015, we have $250.0 million in outstanding borrowings under our bank credit facility and have issued $31.6 million of letters of credit. The bank credit facility provides us with flexibility for working capital, if needed, and is guaranteed by a majority of our domestic subsidiaries. The subsidiary guaranty is a guaranty of payment of the outstanding amount of the total lending commitment, including letters of credit. The bank credit facility contains certain financial covenants, including a minimum interest coverage ratio, a maximum leverage ratio, and certain dividend and share repurchase restrictions. We pay a quarterly fee on the unused commitment, which was 0.35% at March 31, 2015. As of March 31, 2015, we have $218.4 million in borrowing capacity under the bank credit facility. Capital Leases During the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we acquired $7.3 million and $10.7 million, respectively, of capital leases, primarily related to transportation equipment.
