Approximately 77% and 66% of our total debt had a fixed interest rate at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we paid $97.3 million and $89.1 million in cash interest, respectively. Bank Credit Agreement In May 2019, we entered into a new $1.7 billion bank credit agreement due May 2024 with a syndicate of banks. The $1.7 billion bank credit agreement comprises a $1.0 billion Bank Credit Facility and a $0.7 billion Term Loan, both due May 2024, including a sublimit of $100.0 million for letters of credit. We accounted for this transaction as a modification of the agreement. Through modifying the Term Loan, we received $49.3 million in proceeds from certain members of the syndicate of banks and paid $32.1 million in principal payments to other members, netting to a $17.2 million increase in our outstanding Term Loan balance. As of June 30, 2019, we have no outstanding borrowings under our Bank Credit Facility due May 2024, $650.0 million of outstanding borrowings under our Term Loan due May 2024, and $32.9 million of letters of credit issued. The bank credit agreement 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. As of June 30, 2019, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants. We pay a quarterly fee on the unused commitment, which was 0.20% at June 30, 2019. As of June 30, 2019, we have $967.1 million in borrowing capacity under the Bank Credit Facility.
