In February 2016, the Company issued $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.125% senior notes due 2019 ("2019 Notes") and $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.50% senior notes due 2024 ("2024 Notes"). In March 2015, the Company issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.30% senior notes due 2020 ("2020 Notes") and $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.35% senior notes due 2025 ("2025 Notes"). In addition, in March 2014, the Company issued $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes, which form a single series and are fully fungible with the 2024 Notes issued in February 2016. In March 2011, the Company issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.60% senior notes due 2021 ("2021 Notes") and $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.95% senior notes due 2041 ("2041 Notes").

The "2019 Notes", "2020 Notes," "2021 Notes," "2024 Notes", "2025 Notes" and "2041 Notes" collectively the "Notes" are the Company’s senior unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, ranking equally in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and senior in right of payment to any of the Company’s future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated to the Notes.

The Company may redeem the 2020 Notes and 2025 Notes, either in whole or in part, at any time one month prior to the maturity date of the 2020 Notes, and three months prior to the maturity date of the 2025 Notes, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Notes and 2025 Notes to be redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments discounted at the Treasury rate plus 30 basis points for the 2020 Notes, or the Treasury rate plus 37.5 basis points for the 2025 Notes, plus, in the case of each of the clauses (i) and (ii) above, accrued and unpaid interest, if any. At any time on or after May 15, 2020, in the case of the 2020 Notes, and at any time on or after March 15, 2025, in the case of the 2025 Notes, the Company may redeem Notes of such series, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2020 Notes and the 2025 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The Company may redeem the other Notes, either in whole or in part, at any time at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments discounted to the redemption date, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any.

In the event of a change of control repurchase event, the holders of the Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of the Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
Interest on the Notes is payable in cash semiannually. The effective interest rates for the Notes include the interest on the Notes, accretion of the discount, and amortization of issuance costs. The indentures that govern the Notes also contain various covenants, including limitations on the Company's ability to incur liens or enter into sale-leaseback transactions over certain dollar thresholds.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company was in compliance with all covenants in the indentures governing the Notes.

Revolving Credit Facility

On June 27, 2014, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with certain institutional lenders and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent, that provides for a $500.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility, with an option of the Company to increase the amount of the credit facility by up to an additional $200.0 million, subject to certain conditions. Proceeds of loans made under the Credit Agreement may be used by the Company for working capital and general corporate purposes. Revolving loans may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed until June 27, 2019, at which time all amounts borrowed must be repaid. Borrowing may be denominated, at the Company's option, in U.S. dollars, Pounds Sterling or Euro.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at either i) a floating rate per annum equal to the base rate plus a margin of between 0.00% and 0.50%, depending on the Company's public debt rating or ii) a per annum rate equal to the reserve adjusted Eurocurrency rate, plus a margin of between 0.90% and 1.50%, depending on the Company's public debt rating. Base rate is defined as the greatest of (A) Citibank's base rate, (B) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.50% or (C) the ICE Benchmark Administration Settlement Rate applicable to dollars for a period of one month plus 1.00%. The Eurocurrency rate is determined for U.S. dollars and Pounds Sterling as the rate at which deposits in such currency are offered in the London interbank market for the applicable interest period and for Euro as the rate specified for deposits in Euro with a maturity comparable to the applicable interest period.

As of June 30, 2016, the Company was in compliance with all covenants in the Credit Agreement, and no amounts were outstanding.

Customer Financing Arrangements

The Company provides certain distribution partners access to extended financing arrangements for certain end-user customers that require longer payment terms than those typically provided by the Company by factoring accounts receivable to third-party financing providers (“financing providers”). The program does not and is not intended to affect the timing of the Company's revenue recognition. Under the financing arrangements, proceeds from the financing provider are due to the Company within 30 to 90 days from the sale of the receivable. In these transactions with the financing provider, the Company surrenders control over the transferred assets. Beginning in 2014 and through 2015, the Company transitioned certain distribution partners from the third party financing program to the Company's commercial payment terms. As a result, the Company's customer financing activities significantly declined from fiscal year 2014 through the second quarter of 2016.

Pursuant to the financing arrangements for the sale of receivables, the Company sold net receivables of $9.2 million and $14.1 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, and $11.8 million and $58.9 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively.

The Company received cash proceeds from the financing provider of $9.1 million and $10.8 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2016, respectively, and $25.5 million and $85.5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the amounts owed by the financing provider were $4.5 million and $1.2 million, respectively, and were recorded in accounts receivable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
