The $750,000 Amended Credit Agreement matures in September 2018 . The Amended Credit Agreement added a new foreign subsidiary borrower in Germany, Barnes Group Acquisition GmbH, and included an accordion feature to increase the borrowing availability of the Company to $1,000,000 . The Company may exercise the accordion feature upon request to the Administrative Agent as long as an event of default has not occurred or is continuing. The borrowing availability of $750,000 , pursuant to the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement, allows for Euro-denominated borrowings equivalent to $500,000 . Borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest at LIBOR plus a spread ranging from 1.10% to 1.70% depending on the Company's leverage ratio at prior quarter end. Borrowings and availability under the Amended Credit Agreement were $ 352,000 and $ 398,000 , respectively, at June 30, 2016 and $379,700 and $370,300 , respectively, at December 31, 2015. The average interest rate on these borrowings was 1.56% and 1.50% on June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. There were no Euro-denominated borrowings at June 30, 2016 or December 31, 2015. The fair value of the borrowings is based on observable Level 2 inputs. The borrowings were valued using discounted cash flows based upon the Company's estimated interest costs for similar types of borrowings. In October 2014, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (“Note Purchase Agreement”), among the Company and New York Life Insurance Company, New York Life Insurance and Annuity Corporation and New York Life Insurance and Annuity Corporation Institutionally Owned Life Insurance Separate Account (BOLI 30C) , as purchasers, for the issuance of $100,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.97% Senior Notes due October 17, 2024 (the “ 3.97% Senior Notes”). The Company completed funding of the transaction and issued the 3.97% Senior Notes on October 17, 2014 . The 3.97% Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and the Company pays interest semi-annually on April 17 and October 17 of each year at an annual rate of 3.97% . The 3.97% Senior Notes will mature on October 17, 2024 unless earlier prepaid in accordance with their terms. Subject to certain conditions, the Company may, at its option, prepay all or any part of the 3.97% Senior Notes in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 3.97% Senior Notes so prepaid, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of prepayment, plus the Make-Whole Amount, as defined in the Note Purchase Agreement, with respect to such principal amount being prepaid. The fair value of the 3.97% Senior Notes was determined using the US Treasury yield and a long-term credit spread for similar types of borrowings, that represent Level 2 observable inputs. The Company's borrowing capacity may be limited by various debt covenants in the Amended Credit Agreement and the Note Purchase Agreement (the "Agreements"). The Agreements contain customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among others, limitations on indebtedness, liens, investments, restricted payments, dispositions and business activities. The Agreements require the Company to maintain a ratio of Consolidated Senior Debt, as defined, to Consolidated EBITDA, as defined, of not more than 3.25 times at the end of each fiscal quarter, provided that such ratio may increase to 3.50 times following the consummation of certain acquisitions. In addition, the Agreements require the Company to maintain (i) a ratio of Consolidated Total Debt, as defined, to Consolidated EBITDA of not more than 4.00 times at the end of each fiscal quarter, provided that such ratio may increase to 4.25 times following the consummation of certain acquisitions, and (ii) a ratio of Consolidated EBITDA to Consolidated Cash Interest Expense, as defined, of not less than 4.25 times at the end of any fiscal quarter. In addition, the Company has available approximately $56,000 in uncommitted short-term bank credit lines ("Credit Lines") and overdraft facilities. Under the Credit Lines, $20,200 was borrowed at June 30, 2016 at an interest rate of 1.30% and $22,500 was borrowed at December 31, 2015 at an average interest rate of 1.56% . The Company had also borrowed $19 and $180 under the overdraft facilities at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 , respectively. Repayments under the Credit Lines are due within one month after being borrowed. Repayments of the overdrafts are generally due within two days after being borrowed. The carrying amounts of the Credit Lines and overdrafts approximate fair value due to the short maturities of these financial instruments. The Company has capital leases at the Thermoplay and Männer businesses. The fair value of the capital leases is based on observable Level 2 inputs. These instruments are valued using discounted cash flows based upon the Company's estimated interest costs for similar types of borrowings. The Company also has other foreign bank borrowings. The fair value of the other foreign bank borrowings is based on observable Level 2 inputs. These instruments are valued using discounted cash flows based upon the Company's estimated interest costs for similar types of borrowings. |
