Senior Secured Credit Facility In August 2011, the Company entered into a $1.4 billion five-year senior secured credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (JPMCB), as administrative agent, and a syndicate of lenders, consisting of a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $700 million and a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $700 million. The senior secured credit facility was amended and restated on August 22, 2012, and was further amended on February 5, 2013 (as amended, the Senior Secured Credit Facility).

On August 22, 2012, we entered into an Incremental Facility Agreement with and among the lenders party thereto and JPMCB, as administrative agent. The Incremental Facility Agreement relates to, and was entered into pursuant to, the Senior Secured Credit Facility. The Incremental Facility Agreement supplemented amounts available to us by $300 million by establishing a $150 million new tranche of term loan commitments and a $150 million new tranche of revolving loan commitments, bringing the total sum available under the Senior Secured Credit Facility and the Incremental Facility Agreement to $1.7 billion. The revolving credit facility also allows a portion of the availability to be used for outstanding letters of credit, and as of June 30, 2013, outstanding letters of credit totaled approximately $17 million.
Of the outstanding principal balance of the term loan facility, $700 million is required to be repaid in quarterly installments of $17.5 million beginning March 31, 2013, with the balance of $455 million being due in August 2016, and $150 million is required to be repaid in quarterly installments of $3.75 million beginning March 31, 2014, with the balance of $97.5 million being due in August 2017. Borrowings under the revolving portion of the credit facility are due in August 2016 or, in the case of the Incremental Facility, in August 2017. Amounts outstanding under the Senior Secured Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company's option, at a base rate equal to the highest of (i) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the administrative agent's “prime rate” and (iii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00% (the Base Rate) or LIBOR, plus a margin ranging from 0.25% to 1.50% for Base Rate-based loans that are either term loans or revolving loans and ranging from 1.25% to 2.50% for LIBOR-based loans that are either term loans or revolving loans, depending on the Company's consolidated leverage ratio. The terms of the Senior Secured Credit Facility also require certain other fees and payments to be made by the Company.
The Company's obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility are guaranteed by certain of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Credit Facility and these guarantees are secured by a first priority lien and security interest in certain equity interests owned by the Company and the guarantor subsidiaries in certain of their respective domestic and foreign subsidiaries. These security interests would be released if the Company achieves an “investment grade” rating, and will remain released so long as the Company maintains that rating.
The Senior Secured Credit Facility includes affirmative and negative covenants that restrict or limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur indebtedness; create liens on assets; engage in certain fundamental corporate changes or changes to the Company's business activities; make investments; sell or otherwise dispose of assets; engage in sale-leaseback or hedging transactions; repurchase stock, pay dividends or make similar distributions; repay other indebtedness; engage in certain affiliate transactions; or enter into agreements that restrict the Company's ability to create liens, pay dividends or make loan repayments. The Senior Secured Credit Facility also includes financial covenants that require us to maintain:
a consolidated leverage ratio on the last day of any fiscal quarter, not to exceed (i) in the case of any fiscal quarter ending prior to December 31, 2013, (a) the sum of (x) 3.50 and (y) an amount (not to exceed 1.00) to reflect new debt used to reduce NCR's unfunded pension liabilities, to (b) 1.00, (ii) in the case of any fiscal quarter ending on or after December 31, 2013 and prior to December 31, 2015, (a) the sum of (x) 3.25 and (y) an amount (not to exceed 1.00) to reflect new debt used to reduce NCR's unfunded pension liabilities, to (b) 1.00, and (iii) in the case of any fiscal quarter ending on or after December 31, 2015 3.50 to 1.00; and
an interest coverage ratio of at least (i) 3.50 to 1.00, in the case of any four consecutive fiscal quarters ending prior to December 31, 2013, and (ii) 4.00 to1.00, in the case of any four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on or after December 31, 2013.
Taking into account new debt used to reduce the Company's unfunded pension liabilities, at June 30, 2013, the maximum consolidated leverage ratio under the Senior Secured Credit Facility was 4.50 to 1.00.

The Senior Secured Credit Facility also contains events of default, which are customary for similar financings. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lenders may, among other things, terminate the loan commitments, accelerate all loans and require cash collateral deposits in respect of outstanding letters of credit.

The Company may request, at any time and from time to time, but the lenders are not obligated to fund, the establishment of one or more term loans and/or revolving credit facilities, the proceeds of which can be used for working capital requirements and other general corporate purposes. The aggregate capacity for additional incremental term loans and/or incremental revolving commitments under the Senior Secured Credit Facility is:

prior to the date that the Company obtains an investment grade rating, the greater of (i) the remaining existing incremental facility capacity (currently $200 million), and (ii) an aggregate amount that would not cause the secured leverage ratio under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, calculated on a pro forma basis including the incremental facility and assuming that it and the revolver are fully drawn, to exceed 2.75 to 1.00;
and after the date that the Company obtains an investment grade rating, an aggregate amount that would not cause the leverage ratio under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, calculated on a pro forma basis including the incremental facility and assuming that it and the revolver are fully drawn, to exceed a level that is 0.50 less than the then-applicable leverage ratio covenant.
In connection with the Senior Secured Credit Facility, the Company deferred approximately $29 million of debt issuance costs in 2011, which are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt. The August 22, 2012 amendment and restatement and Incremental Facility Agreement were considered modifications, not extinguishments of our credit facility, and therefore the unamortized debt issuance costs continue to be deferred. In connection with the August 22, 2012 amendment and restatement and Incremental Facility Agreement and the February 5, 2013 amendment, the Company deferred an additional $3 million and $1 million, respectively, of debt issuance costs, which are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the new debt.
On July 25, 2013, the Company amended and restated the Senior Secured Credit Facility and refinanced its term loan facility and revolving credit facility thereunder. The Senior Secured Credit Facility now consists of a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1.115 billion, and a revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $850 million. See Note 18, "Subsequent Events," for additional information.
Senior Unsecured Notes On September 17, 2012, the Company issued $600 million aggregate principal amount of 5.00% senior unsecured notes due in 2022 (the 5.00% Notes). The 5.00% Notes were sold at 100% of the principal amount and will mature on July 15, 2022. On December 18, 2012, the Company issued $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.625% senior unsecured notes due in 2021 (the 4.625% Notes). The 4.625% Notes were sold at 100% of the principal amount and will mature on February 15, 2021. The 5.00% and 4.625% Notes are unsecured senior obligations of the Company and are guaranteed, on an unsecured senior basis, by our subsidiaries, NCR International, Inc. and Radiant Systems, Inc., which also guarantee our obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility.
We have the option to redeem the 5.00% Notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after July 15, 2017, at a redemption price of 102.5%, 101.667%, 100.833% and 100% during the 12-month periods commencing on July 15, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020 and thereafter, respectively, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. Prior to July 15, 2017, we may redeem the 5.00% Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. Prior to July 15, 2015, we may redeem the 5.00% Notes in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes originally issued at a redemption price of 105% plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds from one or more qualified equity offerings under certain further requirements.
We have the option to redeem the 4.625% Notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after February 15, 2017, at a redemption price of 102.313%, 101.156% and 100% during the 12-month periods commencing on February15, 2017, 2018 and 2019 and thereafter, respectively, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. Prior to February 15, 2017, we may redeem the 4.625% Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. Prior to February 15, 2016, we may redeem the 4.625% Notes in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes originally issued at a redemption price of 104.625% plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds from one or more qualified equity offerings under certain further requirements.
The terms of the indentures for these notes, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to incur additional debt or issue redeemable preferred stock; pay dividends or make certain other restricted payments or investments; incur liens; sell assets; incur restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to pay dividends to us; enter into affliliate transactions; engage in sale and leaseback transactions; and consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets. These covenants are subject to significant exceptions and qualifications. For example, if these notes are assigned an investment grade rating by Moody's or S&P and no default has occurred or is continuing, certain covenants will be terminated.
On March 26, 2013 the Company filed registration statements on Forms S-4 with the SEC with respect to registered offers to exchange the 5.00% Notes and the 4.625% Notes in accordance with the requirements of the applicable registration rights agreements. The registration statements, as amended, were each declared effective on April 29, 2013, and the exchange offer closed on May 30, 2013.

Additionally, in connection with the 5.00% Notes and the 4.625% Notes, the Company deferred approximately $11 million and $7 million of debt issuance costs, respectively, which are being amortized to interest expense over the life of the debt.

Fair Value of Debt The fair value of debt is based on a discounted cash flow model that incorporates a market yield curve based on the Company’s credit rating with adjustments for duration. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the fair value of debt was $2.11 billion and $1.97 billion, respectively, and has been measured using significant other observable inputs (Level 2).
