Our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) provides us with an $850 million revolving credit facility which may be increased by an additional uncommitted $150 million provided certain conditions are met. The Credit Agreement expires in August 2017. Borrowings may be used to provide working capital, finance capital expenditures and permitted acquisitions, refinance certain existing indebtedness and for other lawful corporate purposes. The Credit Agreement provides for multicurrency borrowings in Euros, Pounds Sterling and Canadian Dollars as well as other currencies which may be designated. In addition, certain wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries of the Company may be designated as co-borrowers. The Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants usual and customary for facilities of its type, which include, with specified exceptions, limitations on our ability to engage in certain business activities, incur debt, have liens, make capital expenditures, pay dividends or make other distributions, enter into affiliate transactions, consolidate, merge or acquire or dispose of assets, and make certain investments, acquisitions and loans. The Credit Agreement also requires that we satisfy certain financial covenants, such as maintaining a consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined) of no less than 4.0 to 1.0 and a consolidated leverage ratio (as defined) of no more than 3.5 to 1.0, which consolidated leverage ratio may increase to no more than 4.0 to 1.0 for the four full fiscal quarters following a permitted acquisition. Our obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by all of our existing and future domestic subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions. As of September 30, 2013, there were $491,194 of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement provides that loans will bear interest at rates based on (a) the Eurocurrency Rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement, plus a rate ranging from 0.875% to 2.00% per annum or (b) the Base Rate, as defined in the Credit Agreement, plus a rate ranging from 0.00% to 1.00% per annum, the relevant rate being the Applicable Rate. The Applicable Rate will be determined in accordance with a leverage-based pricing grid, as set forth in the Credit Agreement. Swing line loans will bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate. Additionally, the Credit Agreement contains a Commitment Fee, as defined in the Credit Agreement, on the amount unused under the Credit Agreement ranging from 0.20% to 0.35% per annum. Such Commitment Fee is determined in accordance with a leverage-based pricing grid, as set forth in the Credit Agreement.

We also maintain short-term borrowing arrangements for several of our United Kingdom subsidiaries that permit borrowings, up to a total of £15,000, based on a defined percentage of the value of sales invoices and receivables. The outstanding borrowings under these arrangements as of September 30, 2013 were £6,865 ($11,077 at the September 30, 2013 exchange rate) and are classified as current liabilities in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
