LONG-TERM DEBT:
Credit Agreement
As of the March 20, 2015 closing, the Second Amended and Restated Senior Secured Syndicated Credit Facility Agreement (the Credit Agreement) was comprised of a $1,782.0 million United States term loan, an A$324.6 million (or $252.5 million at the exchange rate on March 20, 2015) Australian term loan, a £101.7 million (or $152.2 million at the exchange rate on March 20, 2015) U.K. term loan and a $625.0 million revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility includes borrowing capacity for letters of credit and swingline loans. The stated maturity date of each of the Company's credit facilities under the Credit Agreement is March 31, 2020.
On October 20, 2016, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement (Amendment No. 2). Amendment No. 2 permitted, among other things, the Company to enter into the Australia Partnership transaction and the GRail Transactions (collectively, the Australian Reorganization). Amendment No. 2 also permitted the repayment in full and termination of the obligations of the Australia Partnership and its subsidiaries (the Australian Loan Parties) under the Credit Agreement (the Australian Refinancing). Following the Australian Refinancing and Australian Reorganization, the Australian Loan Parties became unrestricted subsidiaries under, ceased to be party to and have no obligations under the Credit Agreement.
As a result of the Australian Reorganization, on December 1, 2016, the $625.0 million revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement was reallocated and includes flexible sub-limits for revolving loans denominated in United States dollars, British pounds, Canadian dollars and Euros and provides for the ability to reallocate commitments among the sub-limits, provided that the total amount of all British pound, Canadian dollar, Euro or other designated currencies sub-limits cannot exceed a combined $500.0 million. The Company also repaid in full the outstanding Australian term loan of A$250.0 million (or $185.3 million at the exchange rate on December 1, 2016 when the payment was made).
During the three months ended March 31, 2017, the Company made prepayments on its United States term loan of $45.8 million. The Company also made scheduled quarterly principal payments of $4.3 million on the United States term loan and £1.3 million (or $1.6 million at the exchange rate on the date the payment was made) on its U.K. term loan.
The United States dollar-denominated and the British pound-denominated term loans began to amortize in quarterly installments during the three months ended September 30, 2016, with the remaining principal balance payable upon maturity, as set forth below (amounts in thousands):
