Unsecured Revolving Lines of Credit In June 2012, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with a syndicate of banks (the “Amended Credit Facility”). The five-year facility matures on June 15, 2017 and replaced the Company’s prior $350.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. The Amended Credit Facility provides for a $420.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility (which may be increased to $450.0 million with $30.0 million of additional commitments), which includes a $25.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit and a $10.0 million sublimit for swingline loans. Amounts outstanding under the Amended Credit Facility at December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $200.0 million and $186.0 million, respectively. In June 2012, the Company entered into a Credit Facility Letter Agreement and a Credit Line Note in favor of Union Bank, N.A., extending its line of credit facility related to its cash management services (“Sweep Service Facility”) and increasing the facility size from $5.0 million to $10.0 million. The Sweep Service Facility matures on the earlier of June 15, 2017, or the date the Company ceases to utilize Union Bank, N.A. for its cash management services. Amounts outstanding under the Sweep Service Facility at December 31, 2014 and 2013 were $2.5 million and $4.0 million, respectively. At December 31, 2014, under the Amended Credit Facility and Sweep Service Facility, the Company had unsecured lines of credit that permit it to borrow up to $430.0 million of which $202.5 million was outstanding, and had capacity to borrow up to an additional $227.5 million. The Amended Credit Facility contains financial covenants requiring the Company to not (all defined terms used below not otherwise defined herein have the meaning assigned to such terms in the Amended Credit Facility):
| • |  | Permit the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of EBITDA to fixed charges as of the end of any fiscal quarter to be less than 2.50 to 1. At December 31, 2014, the actual ratio was 4.02 to 1.
| • |  | Permit the Consolidated Leverage Ratio of funded debt to EBITDA at any time during any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters to be greater than 2.75 to 1. At December 31, 2014, the actual ratio was 1.89 to 1.
| • |  | Permit Tangible Net Worth as of the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company to be less than the sum of (i) $246.1 million plus (ii) 25% of the Company’s Consolidated Net Income (as defined in the Amended Credit Facility) (but only if a positive number) for each fiscal quarter ended subsequent to December 31, 2011 plus (iii) 90% of the net cash proceeds from the issuance of the Company’s capital stock after December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2014, such sum was $294.2 million and the actual Tangible Net Worth of the Company was $386.4 million.
Amounts borrowed under the Amended Credit Facility bear interest at the Company’s option at either: (i) LIBOR plus a defined margin, or (ii) the Agent bank’s prime rate (“base rate”) plus a margin. The applicable margin for each type of loan is measured based upon the Consolidated Leverage Ratio at the end of the prior fiscal quarter and ranges from 1.00% to 1.75% for LIBOR loans and 0% to 0.75% for base rate loans. In addition, the Company pays an unused commitment fee for the portion of the $420.0 million credit facility that is not used. These fees are based upon the Consolidated Leverage Ratio and range from 0.15% to 0.30%. As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the applicable margins were 1.50% for LIBOR based loans, 0.50% for base rate loans and 0.25% for unused fees. Amounts borrowed under the Sweep Service Facility are based upon the Union Bank, N.A. base rate plus an applicable margin and an unused commitment fee for the portion of the $10.0 million facility not used. The applicable base rate margin and unused commitment fee rates for the Sweep Service Facility are the same as for the Amended Credit Facility. The following information relates to the lines of credit for each of the following periods:

4.03% Senior Notes Due in 2018 On April 21, 2011, the Company entered into a Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”) with Prudential Investment Management, Inc. (“PIM”), The Prudential Insurance Company of America and Prudential Retirement Insurance and Annuity Company (collectively, the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell an aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million of its 4.03% Series A Senior Notes (the “Series A Senior Notes”) to the Purchaser. The Series A Senior Notes are an unsecured obligation of the Company, due on April 21, 2018. Interest on these notes is due semi-annually in arrears and the principal is due in five equal annual installments, with the first payment due on April 21, 2014. In addition, the Note Purchase Agreement allows for the issuance and sale of additional senior notes to the Purchaser (the “Shelf Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $100.0 million, to mature no more than 12 years after the date of original issuance thereof, to have an average life of no more than 10 years and to bear interest on the unpaid balance. At December 31, 2014 and 2013, the principal balance outstanding under the Series A Senior Notes were $80.0 million and $100.0 million, respectively. On March 17, 2014, the Company entered into an Amendment to the Note Purchase Agreement (“Amendment”) with the Purchasers. The Amendment amended certain terms of the Note Purchase Agreement. Pursuant to the Amendment, among other things, the issuance period for the Shelf Notes to be issued and sold pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement is extended until the earlier of March 17, 2017 or the termination of the issuance and sale of the Shelf Notes upon the 30 days’ prior notice of either PIM or the Company. 3.68% Senior Notes Due in 2021 On March 17, 2014, the Company issued and sold to the Purchasers a $40.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.68% Series B Senior Notes (the “Series B Senior Notes”) pursuant to the terms of the Note Purchase Agreement, as amended. The Series B Senior Notes are an unsecured obligation of the Company and bear interest at a rate of 3.68% per annum and mature on March 17, 2021. Interest on the Series B Senior Notes is payable semi-annually beginning on September 17, 2014 and continuing thereafter on March 17 and September 17 of each year until maturity. The full net proceeds from the Series B Senior Notes were used for working capital and other general corporate purposes. At December 31, 2014, the principal balance outstanding under the Series B Senior Notes was $40.0 million. Among other restrictions, the Note Purchase Agreement, under which the Series A Senior Notes and the Series B Senior Notes were sold, contains financial covenants requiring the Company to not (all defined terms used below not otherwise defined herein have the meaning assigned to such terms in the Note Purchase Agreement):
| • |  | Permit the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of EBITDA to fixed charges as of the end of any fiscal quarter to be less than 2.50 to 1. At December 31, 2014, the actual ratio was 4.02 to 1.
| • |  | Permit the Consolidated Leverage Ratio of funded debt to EBITDA at any time during any period of four consecutive quarters to be greater than 2.75 to 1. At December 31, 2014, the actual ratio was 1.89 to 1.
| • |  | Permit Tangible Net Worth, calculated as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, to be less than the sum of (i) $229.0 million, plus (ii) 25% of net income for such fiscal quarter subsequent to December 31, 2010, plus (iii) 90% of the net cash proceeds from the issuance of the Company’s capital stock after December 31, 2010. At December 31, 2014, such sum was $294.2 million and the actual Tangible Net Worth of the Company was $386.4 million.
At December 31, 2014, the Company was in compliance with each of the aforementioned covenants. There are no anticipated trends that the Company is aware of that would indicate non-compliance with these covenants, though, significant deterioration in the Company’s financial performance could impact its ability to comply with these covenants.
