As a result of the merger and adoption of acquisition accounting on April 30, 2013, SuperMedia's debt obligation was recorded at its fair value of $1,082 million, from its face value of $1,442 million, resulting in a discount of $360 million. This debt fair value adjustment is being amortized as an increase to interest expense over the remaining term of the SuperMedia debt obligation using the effective interest method and does not impact future interest or principal payments. Amortization of the SuperMedia debt fair value adjustment of $19 million and $55 million was included in interest expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively, compared to $17 million and $28 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. The unamortized portion of the SuperMedia discount as of September 30, 2014 was $222 million. The par value of SuperMedia's debt obligation at September 30, 2014 was $1,079 million.

Senior Subordinated Notes The Company's senior subordinated notes require interest payments, payable semi-annually on March 31 and September 30 of each year. The senior subordinated notes accrue interest at 12% for cash interest payments and 14% for payments-in-kind ("PIK") interest. PIK interest represents additional indebtedness and increases the aggregate principal amount owed. The Company is required to make interest payments of 50% in cash and 50% in PIK interest until maturity of the senior secured credit facilities on December 31, 2016. For the semi-annual interest period ended March 31, 2014 and September 30, 2014, the Company made interest payments of 50% in cash and 50% in PIK interest resulting in the issuance of an additional $16 million of senior subordinated notes. The Company is restricted from making open market repurchases of its senior subordinated notes until maturity of the senior secured credit facilities on December 31, 2016. The senior subordinated notes mature on January 29, 2017. Principal Payment Terms for Senior Secured Credit Facilities The Company has mandatory debt principal payments due after each quarter prior to the December 31, 2016 maturity date on its outstanding senior secured credit facilities. RHD, DME and DMW are required to pay scheduled amortization payments, plus additional prepayments at par equal to each borrower's respective Excess Cash Flow ("ECF"), multiplied by the applicable ECF Sweep Percentage as defined in the respective senior secured credit facility (60% for RHD, 50% for DMW, and 70% in 2013 and 2014 and 60% in 2015 and 2016 for DME). SuperMedia is required to make prepayments at par in an amount equal to 67.5% of any increase in Available Cash, as defined in its senior secured credit facility. In addition to these principal payments, the Company may on one or more occasions use another portion of ECF or the increase in Available Cash, as applicable, to repurchase debt at market prices ("Voluntary Prepayments") at a discount of face value, as defined in the respective senior secured credit facility (12.5% for SuperMedia, 20% for RHD, 30% for DMW, and 15% in 2013 and 2014 and 20% in 2015 and 2016 for DME) as determined following the end of each quarter. These Voluntary Prepayments must be made within 180 days after the date on which financial statements are delivered to the administrative agents. If a borrower does not make such Voluntary Prepayments within the 180-day period, the Company must make a prepayment at par at the end of the quarter during which such 180-day period expires. Any remaining portion of ECF or Available Cash, may be used at the Company's discretion, subject to certain restrictions specified in each senior secured credit facility agreement. 2014 and 2013 Principal Payments During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company retired debt obligations of $314 million under its senior secured credit facilities utilizing cash of $300 million. The Company made mandatory and accelerated principal payments, at par, of $225 million. On June 16, 2014 the Company repurchased and retired debt of $54 million utilizing cash of $46 million in accordance with the terms and conditions of its senior secured credit facilities. This transaction resulted in no gain/(loss) being recorded by the Company (non-taxable gain of $8 million offset by a $7 million write-off of SuperMedia's unamortized debt fair value adjustment and $1 million in administrative fees). In addition, on September 16, 2014 the Company repurchased and retired debt of $35 million utilizing cash of $29 million in accordance with the terms and conditions of its senior secured credit facilities. This transaction resulted in a non-taxable gain of $2 million being recorded by the Company (non-taxable gain of $6 million offset by a $4 million write-off of SuperMedia's unamortized debt fair value adjustment and less than $1 million in administrative fees). During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company made mandatory and accelerated principal payments on its senior secured credit facilities, at par, of $321 million. Debt Covenants Each of the senior secured credit facilities described above contain certain covenants that, subject to exceptions, limit or restrict each borrower's incurrence of liens, investments (including acquisitions), sales of assets, indebtedness, payment of dividends, distributions and payments of certain indebtedness, sale and leaseback transactions, swap transactions, affiliate transactions, capital expenditures and mergers, liquidations and consolidations. Each borrower is required to maintain compliance with a consolidated leverage ratio covenant and a consolidated interest coverage ratio covenant. Each of the senior secured credit facilities also contain certain covenants that, subject to exceptions, limit or restrict Dex Media's incurrence of liens, indebtedness, ownership of assets, sales of assets, payment of dividends or distributions or modifications of the senior subordinated notes. The senior subordinated notes contain certain covenants that, subject to certain exceptions, among other things, limit or restrict the Company's (and, in certain cases, the Company's restricted subsidiaries) incurrence of indebtedness, making of certain restricted payments, incurrence of liens, entry into transactions with affiliates, conduct of its business, mergers, and consolidation or sale of all or substantially all of its property. As of September 30, 2014, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants associated with its senior secured credit facilities and senior subordinated notes. Guarantees Each of the senior secured credit facilities are separate facilities with no cross guarantees or collateralization provision among the entities, subject to certain exceptions. The Shared Guarantee and Collateral agreement has certain guarantee and collaterization provisions supporting SuperMedia, RHD, DME and DMW. However, an event of default by one of the entities could trigger a call on the applicable guarantor. An event of default by a guarantor on a guarantee obligation could be an event of default under the applicable credit facility, and if demand is made under the guarantee and the creditor accelerates the indebtedness, failure to satisfy such claims in full would in turn trigger a default under all of the other credit facilities. A subordinated guarantee also provides that SuperMedia, RHD, DME and DMW guarantee the obligations of the other such entities, including SuperMedia, provided that no claim may be made on such guarantee until the senior secured debt of such entity is satisfied and discharged.
