(A)
Interest rates are the stated rates of interest on the debt instrument (not the effective interest rate) as of March 31, 2014, and therefore, exclude the effects of related interest rate swaps and accretion/amortization of fair value adjustments as a result of purchase accounting in connection with Hindalco's purchase of Novelis and accretion/amortization of debt issuance costs related to the debt exchange completed in fiscal 2009 and the series of refinancing transactions and additional borrowings we completed in fiscal 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. We present stated rates of interest because they reflect the rate at which cash will be paid for future debt service.
(B)
Debt existing at the time of Hindalco's purchase of Novelis was recorded at fair value. In connection with a series of refinancing transactions, a portion of the historical fair value adjustments were allocated to the Term Loan Facility, resulting in carrying value adjustments on this debt obligation. The unamortized carrying value balances also include an issuance discount.
(C)
Debt existing at the time of Hindalco's purchase of Novelis was recorded at fair value resulting in carrying value adjustments to our capital lease obligations in Novelis Switzerland.
(D)
The unamortized carrying value balance includes issuance discounts related to the difference resulting from the contractual rates of interest specified in the instruments that are lower than the market rates of interest upon issuance.
Principal repayment requirements for total debt over the next five years and thereafter
Principal repayment requirements for our total debt over the next five years and thereafter (excluding unamortized carrying value adjustments and using exchange rates as of March 31, 2014 for our debt denominated in foreign currencies) are as follows (in millions).
