Credit Facilities
JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association
On June 30, 2015, we entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Amended and Restated Credit Agreement") that amended and restated the Credit Agreement dated May 5, 2011 between us and JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. ("JPMorgan"), as administrative agent and collateral agent, U.S. Bank National Association, as syndication agent, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, and RBS Citizens, N.A., as co-documentation agents, and the Lenders (including JPMorgan) from time to time party thereto, as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated April 25, 2013 (the "Credit Agreement"). The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides us and certain of our foreign subsidiaries access to a senior unsecured credit facility until June 30, 2020, in the amount of $125,000, with an option to expand by up to $62,500 to a total of $187,500. Borrowings may be denominated in U.S. dollars or certain other currencies. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains a $100,000 sublimit on borrowings by foreign subsidiaries.
The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement principally provided the following changes to the Credit Agreement:
changed the fees for committed funds from an annual rate ranging from 0.20% to 0.35%, depending on our leverage ratio, under the Credit Agreement to an annual rate ranging from 0.175% to 0.300%, depending on our leverage ratio, under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement;
removed RBS Citizens, N.A. as a co-documentation agent;
changed the rate at which Eurocurrency borrowings bear interest from a rate per annum equal to adjusted LIBOR plus an additional spread of 1.30% to 1.90%, depending on our leverage ratio, under the Credit Agreement to a rate per annum equal to adjusted LIBOR plus an additional spread of 1.075% to 1.700% , depending on our leverage ratio, under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement;
under the Credit Agreement, Alternate Base Rate (“ABR”) borrowings bore interest at a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (c) the adjusted LIBOR rate for a one month period plus 1.00%, plus, in any such case, an additional spread of 0.30% to 0.90%, depending on our leverage ratio. The ABR borrowings bear interest under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement at a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the primate rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (c) the adjusted LIBOR rate for a one month period plus 1.00%, plus, in any such case, an additional spread of 0.075% to 0.700%, depending on our leverage ratio.
The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement gives the Lenders a pledge of 65% of the stock of certain first tier foreign subsidiaries. The obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are also guaranteed by certain of our first tier domestic subsidiaries.
The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants, including but not limited to covenants restricting our ability to incur indebtedness and liens and merge or consolidate with another entity. It also incorporates new or recently revised financial regulations and other compliance matters. Further, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains the following covenants:
a covenant requiring us to maintain an indebtedness to EBITDA ratio as of the end of each quarter of not greater than 3.25 to 1. Under the Credit Agreement, the required indebtedness to EBITDA ratio as of the end of each quarter was not greater than 3.00 to 1;
a covenant requiring us to maintain an EBITDA to interest expense ratio as of the end of each quarter of no less than 3.50 to 1;
a covenant restricting us from paying dividends or repurchasing stock if, after giving effect to such payments, our leverage ratio is greater than 2.00 to 1, in such case limiting such payments to an amount ranging from $50,000 to $75,000 during any fiscal year based on our leverage ratio after giving effect to such payments;
a covenant restricting us from paying any dividends or repurchasing stock, if, after giving effect to such payments, our leverage ratio is greater than 3.25 to 1; and
