Various debt agreements to which we are a party include financial covenants and other restrictions, including restrictions pertaining to the ability to create property liens and enter into certain sale and leaseback transactions. As of 30 September 2018, we are in compliance with all the financial and other covenants under our debt agreements.
Additional commitments totaling $7.0 are maintained by our foreign subsidiaries, all of which were borrowed and outstanding at 30 September 2018.
Cash paid for interest, net of amounts capitalized, was $123.1, $125.9, and $120.6 in fiscal years 2018, 2017, and 2016, respectively.
2017 Credit Agreement
On 31 March 2017, we entered into a five-year $2,500.0 revolving credit agreement maturing 31 March 2022 with a syndicate of banks (the “2017 Credit Agreement”), under which senior unsecured debt is available to both the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. On 28 September 2018, we amended the 2017 Credit Agreement to reduce the maximum borrowing capacity to $2,300.0. No other terms were impacted by the amendment.
The 2017 Credit Agreement provides a source of liquidity for the Company and supports its commercial paper program. The Company’s only financial covenant under the 2017 Credit Agreement is a maximum ratio of total debt to total capitalization (total debt plus total equity) no greater than 70%. No borrowings were outstanding under the 2017 Credit Agreement as of 30 September 2018.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
In September 2016, we exchanged notes issued to us by Versum in anticipation of the spin-off. The exchange resulted in a loss of $6.9. Refer to Note 4, Materials Technologies Separation, for additional information.
