Approximately 75% and 76% of our total debt had a fixed interest rate at March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. Bank Credit Agreement In March 2016, we entered into a new $1.4 billion bank credit agreement due March 2021 with a syndicate of banks. As of March 31, 2016, we have $30.0 million of outstanding borrowings under our Bank Credit Facility due March 2021, $550.0 million of outstanding borrowings under our Term Loan due March 2021, and have issued $30.8 million of letters of credit. The bank credit agreement due March 2021 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 agreement 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 0.30% at March 31, 2016. As of March 31, 2016, we have $639.2 million in borrowing capacity under the Bank Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2015, we had a $500.0 million Bank Credit Facility due July 2018 with a syndicate of financial institutions, including a sublimit of $175.0 million for letters of credit. In March 2016, the new $1.4 billion credit agreement replaced the existing $500.0 million Bank Credit Facility due July 2018 and $600.0 million Term Loan due July 2018 providing for a new $700.0 million Bank Credit Facility and a $700.0 million Term Loan, both maturing in March 2021, including a sublimit of $100.0 million for letters of credit. Debt Issuances and Additions In January 2016, we drew $10.0 million on our Bank Credit Facility due July 2018 for general corporate purposes. In March 2016, we drew $30.0 million on our Bank Credit Facility due March 2021 and $550.0 million on our Term Loan due March 2021 to repay outstanding borrowings under our Bank Credit Facility due July 2018 and our Term Loan due July 2018. These transactions resulted in the addition of $5.2 million in debt issuance costs. In March 2015, we drew $15.0 million on our Bank Credit Facility due July 2018, which was used to make required payments on our Term Loan due July 2018. Debt Extinguishments and Reductions During the three months ended March 31, 2016, we made debt payments of $590.1 million for scheduled and early extinguishment payments including:
• | $310.0 million in aggregate principal of our Term Loan due July 2018;
• | $280.0 million in aggregate principal of our Bank Credit Facility due July 2018; and
• | $0.1 million in other debt.
Certain of the above transactions resulted in the recognition of a loss of $0.6 million recorded in Loss on early extinguishment of debt in our unaudited condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we made debt payments of $15.0 million for a scheduled payment on our Term Loan due July 2018.
