Credit Facilities
 
In February 2012, the Company entered into a new $150,000 credit facility. This facility has a term of five years and matures in February 2017. Interest rates for advances under the facility are LIBOR plus 1.1% based upon covenants related to total indebtedness to earnings (1.3% at December 31, 2014). The agreement contains certain covenants and restrictions related to new indebtedness, investment types and dispositions of property. None of the covenants are expected to significantly affect the Company's operations or ability to pay dividends. No assets are pledged as collateral against the credit facility. As of December 31, 2014, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the credit facility. At December 31, 2014, the Company had utilized $9,749 of availability for outstanding letters of credit and had $140,251 of available borrowing capacity outstanding under the credit facility. See note 12 for discussion of subsequent events related to the credit facility.
