Over the past few yearn we completed various amendments and modifications to certain of our debt agreements in an effort to extend
our debt maturities and lower interest rates. Details regarding our debt structure am provided in the "Borrowings- notes to our consolidated
financial statements included elsewhere in this prospectus.
On July 11. 2014. FDH, ow direct parent. completed the issuance of $3.5 billion of its Class 13 common equity in a private placement.
Approximately $2.5 billion of the net proceeds from the private placement were contributed to us as a capital contribution and the funds were used
to repay approximately $2.2 billion of debt and $214 million in call premiums.
Additionally. on July 18, 2014, we repriced approximately $5.7 billion of 2018 term loans. reducing the interest rate by 50 basis points,
resulting in a decrease in annual interest expense of over $25 million. We estimate that the debt pay down from the equity contribution proceeds,
combined with the repricing and other actions by us, has lowered annual cash interest payments by approximately $228 million per annum. We also
plan to repay certain indebtedness with the proceeds of this offering. See "Use of Prowals.-
On June 2, 2015. we terminated and replaced our previous $1.0 billion senior secured revolving credit facility maturing September 24,
2016 with a new $1.25 billion senior screwed revolving credit facility maturing on June 2, 2020.
The following events occurred subsequent to June 30, 2015:
On July 10, 2015, we entered into an agreement to amend our senior secured credit facilities providing for incremental term loans of
$725 million and 6250 million ($276 million) at LIBOR plus 3.75%, the proceeds of which will be used to redeem $955 million of our 7.375%
senior secured rust lien notes due 2019. This action is estimated to reduce annual cash interest payments by an incremental $30 million per annum
based on rates as of July 10, 2015.
On August 11, 2015, we issued $1.2 billion of 5.375% of senior secured first lien notes due 2023. Proceeds from this offering were used
to redeem and repurchase outstanding amounts under our 7.375% senior secured first lien notes due 2019 and our 8.875% senior secured (IPA lien
notes due 2020 and pay related fes and expenses. On August 13, 2015, we completed a tender offer for a portion of the 7.375% notes and the
8.875% notes. We redeemed the remaining outstanding amounts of the 7.375% notes and 8.875% notes in September of 2015. These transactions
are estimated to reduce our annual cash interest payments by an incremental $28 million per annum.
Cash and cash equivalents. Investments (other than those included in settlement assets) with original maturities of three months or less

2015 and December 31, 2014, we held $348 million and $358 million in cash and cash equivalents, respectively.

subsidiaries. As of June 30.2015 and December 31, 2014, the cash and cash equivalents held by these subsidiaries totaled $159 million and $152
million, respectively. All other domestic cash balances, to the extent available, are used to fundour short-term liquidity needs. A decrease in our
credit ratings could affect ow interest expense or our ability to access funding.
