DEBT | DEBT Amended and Restated Senior Credit Agreement On August 28, 2015 , the Company entered into a second amendment (the “Second Amendment”) to the certain Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 2, 2014 among the Company, a syndicate of lending banks, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Syndication Agent, and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, Royal Bank of Canada, Citizens Bank, National Association, DNB Capital LLC, Crédit Agricole-Corporate and Investment Bank, and TD Bank, N.A., as Co-Documentation Agents. The Second Amendment creates an aggregate principal amount of up to $1.1 billion available to the Company through the following facilities: i. a $750.0 million revolving credit facility, which includes a $60.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit and a $60.0 million sublimit for swingline loans, and ii. a $350.0 million term loan facility. In connection with the Second Amendment, the Company borrowed $200.0 million of incremental term loans as permitted under the original terms of the Senior Credit Facility to repay a portion of the Company's outstanding revolving loans. Additionally, the Second Amendment (i) enables the Company to incur up to $200.0 million of incremental loans in the future and (ii) modifies the consolidated leverage ratio covenant in the Credit Agreement. The July 2014 amended and restated Senior Credit Facility extended the maturity date of the prior facility from June 8, 2016 to July 2, 2019. Borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to: i. the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the amendment and restatement) in effect from time to time plus the applicable rate (ranging from 1.00% to 1.75% ), or ii. the highest of: 1. the weighted average overnight Federal funds rate, as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, plus 0.50% , 2. the prime lending rate of Bank of America, N.A., or 3. the one-month Eurodollar Rate plus 1.00% . The applicable rates are based on the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio (defined as the ratio of (a) consolidated funded indebtedness less cash in excess of $40.0 million that is not subject to any restriction of the use or investment thereof to (b) consolidated EBITDA) at the time of the applicable borrowing. The Company will also pay an annual commitment fee (ranging from 0.15% to 0.30% , based on the Company’s consolidated total leverage ratio) on the daily amount by which the revolving credit facility exceeds the outstanding loans and letters of credit under the credit facility. The Senior Credit Facility is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries, excluding intangible assets. The Senior Credit Facility is subject to various financial and negative covenants and at June 30, 2016 the Company was in compliance with all such covenants. The Company capitalized $1.4 million of incremental financing costs in 2015 in connection with the modifications of the Senior Credit Facility. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , there was $140.0 million and $150.0 million outstanding, respectively, under the revolving credit component of the Senior Credit Facility at a weighted average interest rate of 2.1% and 1.9% , respectively. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, there was $342.5 million and $346.2 million outstanding, respectively, under the term loan component of the Senior Credit Facility at a weighted average interest rate of 2.1% and 1.8% , respectively. At June 30, 2016 , there was approximately $610.0 million available for borrowing under the Senior Credit Facility. The fair value of outstanding borrowings of the Senior Credit Facility's revolving credit facility and term loan components at June 30, 2016 was approximately $134.5 million and $330.3 million , respectively. These fair values were determined by using a discounted cash flow model based on current market interest rates available to the Company. These inputs are corroborated by observable market data for similar liabilities and therefore classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Level 2 inputs represent inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly and are other than active market observable inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities. The Company considers the balance to be long-term in nature based on its current intent and ability to repay the borrowing outside of the next twelve-month period. Contractual repayments of the term loan began September 30, 2015 and are due as follows: Year Ended December 31, Principal Repayment (In thousands) 2016 $ 10,625 2017 25,625 2018 32,500 2019 273,750 $ 342,500 The outstanding balance of revolving credit component of the Senior Credit Facility is due on July 2, 2019. 2016 Convertible Senior Notes On June 15, 2011, the Company issued $230.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 1.625% Convertible Senior Notes due in 2016 (the “2016 Notes”). The 2016 Notes mature on December 15, 2016, and bear interest at a rate of 1.625% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears on December 15 and June 15 of each year. The portion of the debt proceeds that was classified as equity at the time of the offering was $43.2 million , an equivalent of that amount is being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method through December 2016. The effective interest rate implicit in the liability component is 5.6% . At June 30, 2016 , the carrying amount of the liability component was $223.0 million , the remaining unamortized discount was $4.1 million , the unamortized debt issuance cost was fully amortized and the principal amount outstanding was $227.1 million . At December 31, 2015 , the carrying amount of the liability component was $218.2 million , the remaining unamortized discount was $8.4 million , the remaining unamortized debt issuance cost was $0.5 million and the principal amount outstanding was $227.1 million . The fair value of the 2016 Notes at June 30, 2016 was approximately $343.2 million . The fair value of the liability of the 2016 Notes was determined using a discounted cash flow model based on current market interest rates available to the Company. These inputs are corroborated by observable market data for similar liabilities and therefore classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The 2016 Notes are senior, unsecured obligations of the Company, and are convertible into cash and, if applicable, shares of its common stock based on an initial conversion rate, subject to adjustment of 18.9287 shares per $1,000 principal amount of 2016 Notes (which represents an initial conversion price of approximately $52.83 per share). The Company will satisfy any conversion of the 2016 Notes with cash up to the principal amount of the 2016 Notes pursuant to the net share settlement mechanism set forth in the indenture and, with respect to any excess conversion value, with shares of the Company’s common stock. The 2016 Notes are convertible only in the following circumstances: (1) if the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock exceeds 150% of the conversion price during a period as defined in the indenture; (2) if the average trading price per $1,000 principal amount of the 2016 Notes is less than or equal to 98% of the average conversion value of the 2016 Notes during a period as defined in the indenture; (3) at any time on or after June 15, 2016 ; or (4) if specified corporate transactions occur, which included the spin-off of the spine business. The issue price of the 2016 Notes was equal to their face amount, which is also the amount holders are entitled to receive at maturity if the 2016 Notes are not converted. As of March 31, 2015, certain conversion features were triggered due to the announced spin-off of the Company's subsidiary, SeaSpine Holdings Corporation, which allowed the holders to convert all or any of the 2016 Notes subject to certain conditions. The 2016 Notes were convertible through June 10, 2015 and as of the close of the conversion window, note holders provided notice to convert 2,903 notes. During 2015, the Company paid $2.9 million in cash and issued 8,457 shares to settle the obligation to the note holders that converted. The Company considers the balance to be long-term in nature based on its current intent and ability to refinance the borrowing. In connection with the issuance of the 2016 Notes, the Company entered into call transactions and warrant transactions, primarily with affiliates of the initial purchasers of such notes (the “hedge participants”). The initial strike price of the call transaction is approximately $52.83 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The initial strike price of the warrant transaction is approximately $64.43 per share, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.
