As of December 31, 2012, the Company’s short-term borrowings totaled $161.0 million and were primarily from its 5-year revolving credit facility agreement (“Credit Facility”).

Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility Agreement

Borrowings from the Credit Facility are used for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The Credit Facility is unsecured, repayable at maturity in June 2016 and can be extended annually if a sufficient number of lenders agree. The maximum amount of outstanding borrowings and letters of credit permitted at any one time under the Credit Facility is $500.0 million, which may be increased from time to time up to $750.0 million at the Company’s request and with the consent of the lenders, subject to satisfaction of customary conditions. The Credit Facility contains financial covenants, whereby the ratio of consolidated total debt to consolidated Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) cannot exceed 3.25 to 1.0, and the ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated interest expense cannot be less than 3.0 to 1.0. The Company was in compliance with these covenants as of December 31, 2013.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate that is determined as a base rate plus a margin. The base rate is either (a) LIBOR for a specified interest period, or (b) a floating rate based upon JPMorgan Chase Bank’s prime rate, the Federal Funds rate or LIBOR. The margin is determined by reference to the Company’s credit rating. The margin can range from 0.075% to 1.45% over the base rate. In addition, the Company incurs an annual 0.2% facility fee on the entire facility commitment of $500.0 million.

As of December 31, 2013, the Company did not have any borrowings outstanding from the Credit Facility. For the year ended December 31, 2013, borrowings from the Credit Facility had a weighted-average interest rate of 1.52%.
