In June 2015, we issued $900 million of unsecured senior notes (“Senior Notes”) in a registered public offering. The Senior Notes consist of two tranches: $400 million of five-year notes due 2020 with a coupon of 3% and $500 million of ten-year notes due 2025 with a coupon of 4%. We used the proceeds from the Senior Notes offering to pay down our revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes. On March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the net carrying value of the Senior Notes, net of underwriting commissions, price discounts and debt issuance costs, was $890.1 million and $889.7 million, respectively.

We have a $975 million committed revolving credit facility, as well as a term loan in the initial amount of $525 million, both of which expire in July 2018. Both facilities can be used for general corporate purposes. On March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, our outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility were $450.0 million and zero, respectively; the amounts outstanding under the term loan, net of debt issuance costs, were $279.1 million and $279.0 million, respectively. At March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the current portion of long-term debt was zero. The interest rates under all of these facilities are variable based on LIBOR at the time of the borrowing and the Company’s leverage as measured by a debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio. Based upon the Company’s debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio at March 31, 2016, the Company’s borrowing rate could range from LIBOR + 1.0% to LIBOR + 2.0%. At March 31, 2016, we were in compliance with all covenants under these facilities. We retrospectively adopted ASU 2015-03, “Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs,” on January 1, 2016, resulting in the reclassification of approximately $3 million of debt issuance costs from other current assets and other assets to long-term debt as of December 31, 2015. Adoption of this new guidance did not impact the Company’s equity, results of operations or cash flows.

We currently have uncommitted bank lines of credit in China, which provide for unsecured borrowings for working capital of up to $25.7 million in aggregate, of which $2.8 million and $0.8 million were outstanding, as of March 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The weighted-average interest rates on these borrowings were 1.4% and zero in the three-month periods ended March 31, 2016 and March 31, 2015, respectively.
