In the first quarter of 2021, the Company made the following debt principal payments using proceeds from the February 2021 underwritten public offering of common stock:

•€123.8 million of the 1.125% notes due in November 2025

•€393.0 million, the remaining balance, of the 1.875% Senior notes originally due in December 2021

•$128.4 million of the 3.45% Senior notes due in November 2029

•$200.0 million, the remaining balance, of the floating rate notes originally due in November 2022

•€183.3 million, the outstanding balance, of the unsecured credit facility originally entered into on August 14, 2019, as amended and restated on December 15, 2020

•$325.0 million, the outstanding balance, of the commercial paper notes

As a result, included in Interest and financing expenses for the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 is a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $27.8 million, representing the tender premiums, fees, unamortized discounts and unamortized deferred financing costs from the redemption of this debt.

Prior to repayment in the first quarter of 2021, the carrying value of our 1.875% Euro-denominated senior notes was designated as an effective hedge of our net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries where the Euro serves as the functional currency, and gains or losses on the revaluation of these senior notes to our reporting currency were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Upon repayment of these notes, this net investment hedge was discontinued. The balance of foreign exchange revaluation gains and losses associated with this discontinued net investment hedge will remain within accumulated other comprehensive loss until the hedged net investment is sold or liquidated. Prior to the net investment hedge being

discontinued, during the three-month period ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, gains of $5.1 million and $2.1 million (net of income taxes), respectively, were recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss in connection with the revaluation of these senior notes to our reporting currency.
