Amended and Restated RCA

On May 30, 2019, we entered into a credit agreement that amended and restated our existing revolving credit agreement, which was then amended on December 22, 2021 as described below (collectively, the Amended and Restated RCA). The Amended and Restated RCA provides for senior unsecured credit facilities comprised of a (i) five-year revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount up to $1.25 billion, and (ii) a five-year term loan A facility consisting of $250 million.

Under the terms of the Amended and Restated RCA, which can be drawn in multiple currencies, we have the option of borrowing at the following floating interest rates: (i) at a rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable margin ranging from 0.98% to 1.50%, depending on our consolidated net leverage ratio, as defined, or (ii) at the lender’s base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from zero to 0.50%, depending on our consolidated net leverage ratio. The lender’s base rate is defined as the highest of (i) the US federal funds effective rate plus a 0.50% margin, (ii) the Eurocurrency rate, as defined, plus a 1.00% margin, or (iii) the Bank of America prime lending rate. In addition, we pay a facility fee for the revolving credit facility ranging from 0.15% to 0.25% depending on our consolidated net leverage ratio. We also have the option to request an increase in the revolving credit facility by an amount not to exceed $500 million, in minimum increments of $50 million, subject to the approval of the lenders.

On December 22, 2021, we entered into the first amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated RCA.  The First Amendment, among other things, (i) changes the rate under the Amended and Restated RCA for borrowings denominated in Sterling from a LIBOR-based rate to a daily simple Sterling Overnight Index Average (SONIA) subject to certain adjustments specified in the Amended and Restated RCA, (ii) changes the rate under the Amended and Restated RCA for borrowings denominated in Euro from a LIBOR-based rate to a EURIBOR-based rate or a Euro Short Term Rate subject to certain adjustments specified in the Amended and Restated RCA, and (iii) updates certain other provisions regarding successor interest rates to LIBOR.

The Amended and Restated RCA contains certain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including a financial covenant in the form of a consolidated net leverage ratio and consolidated interest coverage ratio, which we were in compliance with as of January 31, 2022.

The amortization expense of the costs incurred related to the Amended and Restated RCA related to the lender and non-lender fees is recognized over the five-year term of the Amended and Restated RCA. Total amortization expense was $0.3 million and $0.8 million for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2022, respectively and is included in Interest expense on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income. Total amortization expense was $0.3 million and $0.8 million for the three and nine months ended January 31, 2021, respectively and is included in Interest expense on our Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Net Income.

As of January 31, 2022, we had approximately $559.5 million of unused borrowing capacity under our Amended and Restated RCA and other facilities.
