Homebuilding:

The Company has a $975 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility with an uncommitted accordion feature that could increase the size of the facility to $1.25 billion, subject to certain conditions and availability of additional bank commitments. The facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit with a sublimit equal to approximately 50% of the revolving credit commitment. Letters of credit issued under the facility reduce the available borrowing capacity. The interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility may be based on either the Prime Rate or London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus an applicable margin, as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility. The maturity date of the facility is September 7, 2020. At December 31, 2015, there were no borrowings outstanding and $103.9 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility.

The Company's revolving credit facility imposes restrictions on its operations and activities, including requiring the maintenance of a minimum level of tangible net worth, a maximum allowable ratio of debt to tangible net worth and a borrowing base restriction if the Company's ratio of debt to tangible net worth exceeds a certain level. These covenants are measured as defined in the credit agreement governing the facility and are reported to the lenders quarterly. A failure to comply with these financial covenants could allow the lending banks to terminate the availability of funds under the revolving credit facility or cause any outstanding borrowings to become due and payable prior to maturity. In addition, the credit agreement governing the facility and the indentures governing the senior notes impose restrictions on the creation of secured debt and liens. At December 31, 2015, the Company was in compliance with all of the covenants, limitations and restrictions of its revolving credit facility and public debt obligations.

The Company has an automatically effective universal shelf registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in August 2015, registering debt and equity securities that the Company may issue from time to time in amounts to be determined.

On January 15, 2016, the Company repaid the remaining $170.2 million principal amount of its 5.625% senior notes which were due on that date.

Effective August 1, 2015, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $500 million of the Company's debt securities effective through July 31, 2016. All of the $500 million authorization was remaining at December 31, 2015.

Financial Services:

The Company’s mortgage subsidiary, DHI Mortgage, has a mortgage repurchase facility that is accounted for as a secured financing. The mortgage repurchase facility provides financing and liquidity to DHI Mortgage by facilitating purchase transactions in which DHI Mortgage transfers eligible loans to the counterparties against the transfer of funds by the counterparties, thereby becoming purchased loans. DHI Mortgage then has the right and obligation to repurchase the purchased loans upon their sale to third-party purchasers in the secondary market or within specified time frames from 45 to 60 days in accordance with the terms of the mortgage repurchase facility. The total capacity of the facility is $400 million; however, the capacity can be increased, without requiring additional commitments, to $450 million during the last five days of any fiscal quarter and the first twenty-five days of the following fiscal quarter. Additionally, the capacity of the facility can be increased to $550 million subject to the availability of additional commitments. The Company is currently in discussions with its lenders and expects to renew and extend the term of the facility on similar terms prior to its February 26, 2016 maturity date.

As of December 31, 2015, $472.2 million of mortgage loans held for sale with a collateral value of $456.1 million were pledged under the mortgage repurchase facility. As a result of advance paydowns totaling $59.0 million, DHI Mortgage had an obligation of $397.1 million outstanding under the mortgage repurchase facility at December 31, 2015 at a 2.7% annual interest rate.

The mortgage repurchase facility is not guaranteed by D.R. Horton, Inc. or any of the subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s homebuilding debt. The facility contains financial covenants as to the mortgage subsidiary’s minimum required tangible net worth, its maximum allowable ratio of debt to tangible net worth and its minimum required liquidity. These covenants are measured and reported to the lenders monthly. At December 31, 2015, DHI Mortgage was in compliance with all of the conditions and covenants of the mortgage repurchase facility.
