The Credit Agreement provides for revolving credit loans of up to$300 million with a sublimit of$50 million for letters of credit and a sublimit of$50 million for swing line loans. The Credit Agreement may be increased by up to$400 million to a maximum aggregate principal amount of$700 million pursuant to the terms and subject to certain limitations set forth in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is scheduled to expire inFebruary 2025 and may be used to refinance existing indebtedness of the Company, for capital expenditures, to repurchase the Company's equity interest and for general corporate purposes. The Credit Agreement replaces the Company's existing$300 million unsecured credit agreement datedFebruary 20, 2015 , as amended to date, among the Company, a syndicate of bank lenders,U.S. Bank National Association , as administrative agent, and other financial institutions as co-syndication agents and joint lead arrangers and joint book runners (the "Prior Credit Agreement"), which was scheduled to mature inFebruary 2020 and which has been terminated in connection with the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement bears interest at a variable rate equal to, at the option of the Company, either (a) a rate based on a eurocurrency rate or (b) an alternate base rate (the highest of (i) 0.00%, (ii)U.S. Bank's prime rate, (iii) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50% and (iv) a one month eurocurrency rate plus 1.00%), plus an applicable percentage in each case determined based on the Company's leverage ratio. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries, without the approval of the lenders, to engage in certain mergers, consolidations, asset sales, investments and transactions with affiliates, or to incur liens or indebtedness in excess of stated amounts, all as set forth in the Credit Agreement. Financial covenants under the Credit Agreement require the Company to maintain a minimum ratio of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to Consolidated Interest Expense (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 3.50 to 1.00 and a maximum ratio of Consolidated Funded Indebtedness (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to Consolidated EBITDA of 3.25 to 1.00 with a step-up to 3.50 to 1.00 for four consecutive quarters following an acquisition with a purchase price of at least$100 million . The Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, including nonpayment, non-compliance with affirmative or negative covenants, bankruptcy and change of control, which if they occur may cause all outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement to be accelerated and become immediately due and payable. The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by the Company's wholly-owned, Material Domestic Subsidiaries (as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). The descriptions set forth above are qualified in their entirety by the Credit Agreement filed herewith as exhibit 10.66. Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
