Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included. Such adjustments consisted of normal recurring items. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. The consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are presented as permitted by Form 10-Q and do not contain certain information included in the annual consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of Fiserv, Inc. (the “Company”). These interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Fiserv, Inc. and all 100% owned subsidiaries. Investments in less than 50% owned affiliates in which the Company has significant influence but not control are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (“ASU 2015-03”). ASU 2015-03 requires that all costs incurred to issue debt be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the associated debt liability rather than as an asset. The standard does not affect the recognition and measurement of debt issuance costs; therefore, the amortization of such costs shall continue to be reported as interest expense. ASU 2015-03 will be effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2015, with early adoption permissible for financial statements that have not been previously issued. The new guidance is to be applied on a retrospective basis to all prior periods. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2015-03 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In February 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-02, Consolidation (Topic 810): Amendments to the Consolidation Analysis (“ASU 2015-02”), which changes the analysis that a reporting entity must perform to determine whether it should consolidate certain types of legal entities. ASU 2015-02 clarifies how to determine whether equity holders as a group have power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the legal entity’s economic performance and could affect whether it is a variable interest entity. ASU 2015-02 will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015; early adoption is allowed, including in any interim period. The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of ASU 2015-02 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”), to clarify the principles of recognizing revenue and to create common revenue recognition guidance between U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2014-09 outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance. The core principle of the revenue model is that an entity recognizes revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This model involves a five-step process for achieving that core principle, along with comprehensive disclosures about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. In July 2015, the FASB deferred the effective date of the new revenue standard for one year and will permit early adoption as of the original effective date in ASU 2014-09. For public entities, the standard will be effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Entities have the option of using either a full retrospective or a modified approach to adopt this new guidance. The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies fair value accounting for all assets and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in its consolidated financial statements on a recurring basis. Fair value represents the amount that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market and the market-based risk measurements or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The fair values of cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, settlement assets and obligations, and accounts payable approximate their respective carrying values due to the short period of time to maturity. The estimated fair value of total debt was $4.3 billion at June 30, 2015 and $3.9 billion at December 31, 2014 and was estimated using quoted prices in inactive markets (level 2 of the fair value hierarchy) or using discounted cash flows based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rates (level 3 of the fair value hierarchy).

4. Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate

The Company owns a 49% interest in StoneRiver Group, L.P. (“StoneRiver”), which is accounted for as an equity method investment, and reports its share of StoneRiver’s net income as income from investment in unconsolidated affiliate. The Company’s investment in StoneRiver was $22 million and $21 million at June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively, and was reported within other long-term assets in the consolidated balance sheets. To the extent that the Company’s cost basis is different than the basis reflected at the unconsolidated affiliate level, the basis difference is generally amortized over the lives of the related assets and included in the Company’s share of equity in earnings of the unconsolidated affiliate. During the second quarter of 2014, the Company received a $45 million cash dividend from StoneRiver, funded from a capital transaction. The entire dividend represented a return on the Company’s investment and was reported as cash flows from operating activities.

5. Share-Based Compensation

The Company recognized $18 million and $36 million of share-based compensation expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, respectively, and $12 million and $27 million of share-based compensation expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively. The Company’s annual grant of share-based awards generally occurs in the first quarter. During the six months ended June 30, 2015, the Company granted 1.1 million stock options and 0.3 million restricted stock units at weighted-average estimated fair values of $25.43 and $79.06, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2014, the Company granted 1.3 million stock options and 0.5 million restricted stock units at weighted-average estimated fair values of $18.80 and $57.08, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, stock options to purchase 1.7 million and 0.8 million shares, respectively, were exercised.

6. Shares Used in Computing Net Income Per Share

The computation of shares used in calculating basic and diluted net income per common share is as follows:

For the three months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, stock options for 1.1 million and 1.4 million shares, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted-average outstanding shares because their impact was anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, stock options for 0.8 million and 1.1 million shares, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted weighted-average outstanding shares because their impact was anti-dilutive.

9. Long-Term Debt

In April 2015, the Company entered into an amended and restated revolving credit agreement that restated its existing $2.0 billion revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of banks and extended its maturity from October 2018 to April 2020. The amended and restated credit agreement also provided that the Company’s subsidiaries that were guaranteeing its obligations under the revolving credit facility were released from their respective guarantees. Borrowings under the amended revolving credit facility continue to bear interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR or on a base rate, plus a specified margin based on the Company’s long-term debt rating in effect from time to time. There are no significant commitment fees and no compensating balance requirements. The amended revolving credit facility contains various restrictions and covenants that are substantially similar to those under the Company’s previously existing credit agreement. In April 2015, the Company also entered into an amendment to its term loan facility to conform certain of its terms to those in the amended and restated credit agreement, including providing that its subsidiaries that were guaranteeing its obligations under the term loan facility were released from their respective guarantees. In addition, in April 2015, the Company provided notice to the trustee under the indenture and supplemental indentures governing its outstanding senior notes that the subsidiary guarantors of the outstanding senior notes were automatically released from all of their obligations under the supplemental indentures and their respective guarantees.

In May 2015, the Company completed an offering of $1.75 billion of senior notes comprised of $850 million aggregate principal amount of 2.7% senior notes due in June 2020 and $900 million aggregate principal amount of 3.85% senior notes due in June 2025. The notes pay interest semi-annually on June 1 and December 1, commencing on December 1, 2015. The interest rate applicable to these notes is subject to an increase of up to two percent in the event that the Company’s credit rating is downgraded below investment grade. The indentures governing the senior notes contain covenants that, among other matters, limit (i) the Company’s ability to consolidate or merge into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets to, another person, (ii) the Company’s and certain of its subsidiaries’ ability to create or assume liens, and (iii) the Company’s and certain of its subsidiaries’ ability to engage in sale and leaseback transactions. The Company used the net proceeds from this offering to redeem its $600 million aggregate principal amount of 3.125% senior notes due in June 2016 and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.8% senior notes due in November 2017. The Company recorded a pre-tax loss on early debt extinguishment of $85 million related to make-whole payments and other costs associated with this redemption. In addition, the Company paid scheduled December 2015 and December 2016 principal payments on the term loan totaling $180 million and repaid outstanding borrowings under the amended and restated revolving credit facility.

At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, the Company’s $300 million aggregate principal amount of 3.125% senior notes due in October 2015 were classified in the consolidated balance sheets as long-term as the Company has the intent to refinance this debt on a long-term basis and the ability to do so under its amended and restated revolving credit facility.

Based on the amounts recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss at June 30, 2015, the Company estimates that it will recognize approximately $12 million in interest expense during the next twelve months related to settled interest rate hedge contracts.

The Company has entered into foreign currency forward exchange contracts, which have been designated as cash flow hedges, to hedge foreign currency exposure to the Indian Rupee. As of June 30, 2015, the notional amount of these derivatives was approximately $57 million, and the fair value was nominal. As of December 31, 2014, the notional amount of these derivatives was approximately $73 million, and the fair value totaling approximately $1 million was recorded within current accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheet.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements

This quarterly report contains “forward-looking statements” intended to qualify for the safe harbor from liability established by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include those that express a plan, belief, expectation, estimation, anticipation, intent, contingency, future development or similar expression, and can generally be identified as forward-looking because they include words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “could,” “should” or words of similar meaning. Statements that describe our future plans, objectives or goals are also forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this report involve significant risks and uncertainties, and a number of factors, both foreseen and unforeseen, could cause actual results to differ materially from our current expectations. The factors that may affect our results include, among others: pricing and other actions by competitors; the capacity of our technology to keep pace with a rapidly evolving marketplace; the impact of market and economic conditions on the financial services industry; the impact of a security breach or operational failure on our business; the effect of legislative and regulatory actions in the United States and internationally; our ability to comply with government regulations; our ability to successfully identify, complete and integrate acquisitions; the impact of our strategic initiatives; and other factors identified in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and in other documents that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. You should consider these factors carefully in evaluating forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such statements, which speak only as of the date of this report. We undertake no obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this report.

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations is provided as a supplement to our unaudited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes to help provide an understanding of our financial condition, the changes in our financial condition and our results of operations. Our discussion is organized as follows:

Overview

Company Background

We are a leading global provider of financial services technology. We provide account processing systems, electronic payments processing products and services, internet and mobile banking systems, and related services. We serve approximately 13,000 clients worldwide, including banks, thrifts, credit unions, investment management firms, leasing and finance companies, retailers, and merchants. The majority of our revenue is generated from recurring account- and transaction-based fees under contracts that generally have terms of three to five years and high renewal rates. Most of the services we provide are necessary for our clients to operate their businesses and are, therefore, non-discretionary in nature.

Our operations are principally located in the United States and are comprised of the Payments and Industry Products (“Payments”) segment and the Financial Institution Services (“Financial”) segment. The Payments segment primarily provides debit, credit and prepaid card processing and services, electronic bill payment and presentment services, internet and mobile banking software and services, person-to-person payment services, and other electronic payments software and services. Our businesses in this segment also provide card and print personalization services, investment account processing services for separately managed accounts, and fraud and risk management products and services. The Financial segment provides banks, thrifts, credit unions, and leasing and finance companies with account processing services, item processing and source capture services, loan origination and servicing products, cash management and consulting services, and other products and services that support numerous types of financial transactions. The Corporate and Other segment primarily consists of unallocated corporate expenses, amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets, intercompany eliminations and other costs that are not considered when management evaluates segment performance.

Enterprise Priorities

We continue to implement a series of strategic initiatives to help accomplish our mission of providing integrated technology and services solutions that enable best-in-class results for our clients. These strategic initiatives include active portfolio management of our various businesses, enhancing the overall value of our existing client relationships, improving operational effectiveness, being disciplined in our allocation of capital, and differentiating our products and services through innovation. Our key enterprise priorities for 2015 are: (i) to continue to build high-quality revenue while meeting our earnings goals; (ii) to build and extend client relationships with an increased emphasis on payment and channel solutions; and (iii) to deliver innovation and integration which enables differentiation and value for our clients.

Industry Trends

The market for products and services offered by financial institutions continues to evolve rapidly. The financial industry regularly introduces and implements new payment, deposit, lending, investment and risk management products, and the distinctions among the products and services traditionally offered by different types of financial institutions continue to narrow as they seek to serve the same customers. At the same time, regulatory conditions have continued to create a difficult operating environment for financial institutions. In particular, legislation such as the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act has generated, and will continue to generate, numerous new regulations that will impact the financial industry. These conditions, along with mild economic improvement, have created heightened interest in solutions that help financial institutions win and retain customers, generate incremental revenue, comply with regulations and enhance operating efficiency. Examples of these solutions include our electronic payments solutions and channels such as internet, mobile and tablet banking, sometimes referred to as “digital channels.”

This increased focus on digital channels by both financial institutions and their customers, as well as the growing volume and types of payment transactions in the marketplace, have increased the data and transaction processing needs of financial institutions. We expect that financial institutions will continue to invest significant capital and human resources to process transactions, manage information and offer innovative new services to their customers in this rapidly evolving and competitive environment. We anticipate that we will benefit over the long term from the trend of financial institutions moving from in-house technology to outsourced solutions as they seek to remain current on technology changes amidst an evolving marketplace. We believe that economies of scale in developing and maintaining the infrastructure, technology, products, services and networks necessary to be competitive in such an environment are essential to justify these investments, and we anticipate that demand for products that facilitate customer interaction with financial institutions, including electronic transactions through digital channels, will continue to increase, which we expect to create revenue opportunities for us. Based on these market conditions, we believe that our sizable and diverse client base, combined with our position as a leading provider of non-discretionary, recurring revenue-based products and services, gives us a solid foundation for growth. Furthermore, we believe that the integration of our products and services creates a compelling value proposition for our clients.

In addition to the trends described above, the financial institutions marketplace has experienced change in composition as well. During the past 25 years, the number of financial institutions in the United States has declined at a relatively steady rate of approximately 3% per year, primarily as a result of voluntary mergers and acquisitions. Rather than reducing the overall market, these consolidations have transferred accounts among financial institutions. An acquisition benefits us when a newly combined institution is processed on our system, or elects to move to one of our systems, and negatively impacts us when a competing system is selected. Financial institution acquisitions also impact our financial results due to early contract termination fees in our multi-year client contracts, which are primarily generated when an existing client with a multi-year contract is acquired by another financial institution. These fees can vary from period to period based on the number and size of clients that are acquired and how early in the contract term the contract is terminated. Our revenue is diversified, and our focus on long-term client relationships and recurring, transaction-oriented products and services has reduced the impact that consolidation in the financial services industry has had on us. We have clients that span the entire range of financial institutions in terms of asset size and business model, and our 50 largest financial institution clients represent less than 25% of our annual revenue. In addition, we believe that our products and services can assist financial institutions with the regulatory and market challenges that they currently face by providing, among other things, new sources of revenue and opportunities to reduce their costs.

Total Revenue

Total revenue increased $45 million, or 4%, in the second quarter of 2015 compared to 2014 and increased $86 million, or 3%, in the first six months of 2015 compared to 2014, driven by both our Payments and Financial segments. Foreign currency fluctuations negatively impacted overall revenue growth by approximately 50 basis points in both the second quarter and first six months of 2015.

Revenue in our Payments segment increased $32 million, or 5%, and $55 million, or 4%, during the second quarter and first six months of 2015, respectively, compared to 2014. Payments segment revenue growth was driven by our recurring revenue businesses as processing and services revenue increased $39 million, or 8%, and $64 million, or 6%, in the second quarter and first six months of 2015, respectively, over the prior year periods. This growth was primarily due to new clients and increased transaction volumes from existing clients in our card services, biller solutions and bill payment businesses, as well as in our digital channels business, which includes our online and mobile banking solutions.

Revenue in our Financial segment increased $13 million, or 2%, and $31 million, or 3%, during the second quarter and first six months of 2015, respectively, compared to 2014. Increased processing and services revenue in our account processing and lending businesses favorably impacted segment revenue growth in both the second quarter and first six months of 2015.

Total Expenses

Total expenses increased $26 million, or 3%, in the second quarter of 2015 and increased $24 million, or 1%, in the first six months of 2015 compared to the prior year periods. Total expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreased 60 basis points from 75.5% in the second quarter of 2014 to 74.9% in the second quarter of 2015 and decreased 170 basis points from 76.8% in the first six months of 2014 to 75.1% in the first six months of 2015.

Cost of processing and services as a percentage of processing and services revenue decreased to 48.9% in the second quarter of 2015 compared to 50.6% in the second quarter of 2014 and to 49.8% in the first six months of 2015 as compared to 51.6% in the first six months of 2014. Cost of processing and services as a percentage of processing and services revenue was favorably impacted by increased operating leverage in our recurring revenue businesses, as well as by operating efficiency initiatives across the company that have lowered our overall cost structure.

Cost of product as a percentage of product revenue in the second quarter of 2015 increased to 88.9% from 84.7% in the second quarter of 2014 and to 87.9% in the first six months of 2015 from 85.8% in the first six months of 2014. Cost of product as a percentage of product revenue was negatively impacted in 2015 by increased expenses associated with additional investments in our output solutions business, along with a slight decline in higher-margin software license revenue during the second quarter, as compared to the prior year periods.

Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue increased to 20.2% in the second quarter of 2015 compared to 19.4% in the second quarter of 2014, largely due to increased share-based compensation and incremental costs associated with data center and real estate consolidation activities. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenue was generally consistent for the first six months of 2015 at 19.4% compared to 19.5% in 2014.

Operating Income and Operating Margin

Total operating income increased $19 million, or 6%, and $62 million, or 11%, during the second quarter and first six months of 2015, respectively, compared to 2014. Total operating margin increased 60 basis points to 25.1% in the second quarter of 2015 and 170 basis points to 24.9% in the first six months of 2015 compared to the same periods in 2014. Operating income and operating margin improvements in 2015 were driven by scale efficiencies and operational effectiveness initiatives.

Operating income in our Payments segment increased $23 million, or 12%, and $34 million, or 9%, in the second quarter and first six months of 2015, respectively, compared to 2014. Operating margin increased 200 basis points to 29.7% in the second quarter of 2015 and 140 basis points to 28.6% in the first six months of 2015, as compared to the prior year periods. The increases in operating income and margin in 2015 were primarily due to revenue growth and scale efficiencies in a number of our businesses, including card services, partially offset by increased expenses associated with additional investments in our biller and output solutions businesses.

Table of Contents

Operating income in our Financial segment increased $6 million, or 3%, and $25 million, or 6%, in the second quarter and first six months of 2015, respectively, compared to 2014. Operating margin increased 40 basis points to 34.5% in the second quarter of 2015 and 130 basis points to 34.4% in the first six months of 2015, as compared to the prior year periods. Operating income and operating margin in 2015 were positively impacted by revenue growth and scale efficiencies in our account processing and lending businesses, along with operational effectiveness initiatives.

The operating loss in the Corporate and Other segment increased $10 million in the second quarter of 2015 as compared to the second quarter of 2014 primarily due to increased severance expenses. For the first six months of 2015 and 2014, the operating loss in the Corporate and Other segment was relatively consistent, decreasing by $3 million.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $8 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2015, or 20% and 10%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2014. The increase in 2015 was primarily due to the reclassification of unamortized losses on settled cash flow hedges to interest expense related to the early extinguishment of debt during the second quarter.

Loss on Early Debt Extinguishment

In May 2015, we redeemed our $600 million aggregate principal amount of 3.125% senior notes due in 2016 and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.8% senior notes due in 2017, which resulted in a pre-tax loss on early debt extinguishment of $85 million related to make-whole payments and other costs associated with the redemption.

Income Tax Provision

Our effective income tax rates for continuing operations were 34.4% and 34.8% in the second quarter and first six months of 2015, respectively, and were 37.7% and 33.5% in the second quarter and first six months of 2014, respectively. The lower effective tax rate in the first six months of 2014 was primarily attributed to the favorable resolution of certain tax matters.

Income from Investment in Unconsolidated Affiliate

Our share of the income of StoneRiver Group, L.P. (“StoneRiver”), a joint venture in which we own a 49% interest, decreased by $3 million in the first six months of 2015 compared to 2014. The 2015 decrease in income was primarily due to our share of a gain on the sale of a subsidiary business at StoneRiver in the first quarter of 2014. Additionally, the income contribution from StoneRiver has declined as StoneRiver continues to monetize its business portfolio.

Net Income Per Share – Diluted from Continuing Operations

Net income per share-diluted from continuing operations was $0.53 and $0.65 in the second quarter of 2015 and 2014, respectively, and was $1.26 and $1.31 in the first six months of 2015 and 2014, respectively. Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets reduced net income per share-diluted from continuing operations by $0.13 per share in both the second quarter of 2015 and 2014, and $0.26 per share in both the first six months of 2015 and 2014. In addition, net income per share-diluted was negatively impacted by debt extinguishment and refinancing costs of $0.25 per share in both the second quarter and first six months of 2015.

Our primary liquidity needs are: (i) to fund normal operating expenses; (ii) to meet the interest and principal requirements of our outstanding indebtedness; and (iii) to fund capital expenditures and operating lease payments. We believe these needs will be satisfied using cash flow generated by our operations, our cash and cash equivalents of $530 million at June 30, 2015 and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The following table presents our operating cash flow and capital expenditure amounts for the six months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

Our net cash provided by operating activities, or operating cash flow, was $600 million in the first six months of 2015, an increase of 5% compared with $569 million in 2014, which included a cash dividend of $45 million received from our StoneRiver joint venture, representing a return on our investment.

Our current policy is to use our operating cash flow primarily to repay debt and fund capital expenditures, acquisitions and share repurchases, rather than to pay dividends. Our capital expenditures were approximately 8% and 6% of our total revenue in the first six months of 2015 and 2014, respectively. Capital expenditures in 2015 include $43 million, consisting primarily of leasehold improvements associated with the construction of a new building related to our Atlanta facility consolidation, of which $24 million is offset by landlord reimbursements included in net changes in working capital and other.

During the first six months of 2015, we purchased $535 million of our common stock. As of June 30, 2015, we had approximately 12.9 million shares remaining under our current share repurchase authorization. Shares repurchased are generally held for issuance in connection with our equity plans.

Indebtedness

At June 30, 2015, our debt consisted primarily of $3.6 billion of senior notes and $630 million of term loan borrowings. Interest on our senior notes is paid semi-annually. During the first six months of 2015, we were in compliance with all financial debt covenants.

Revolving Credit Facility

In April 2015, we entered into an amended and restated revolving credit agreement that restated our existing $2.0 billion revolving credit agreement with a syndicate of banks and extended its maturity from October 2018 to April 2020. The amended and restated credit agreement also provided that our subsidiaries that were guaranteeing our obligations under the revolving credit facility were released from their respective guarantees. Borrowings under the amended revolving credit facility continue to bear interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR or on a base rate, plus a specified margin based on our long-term debt rating in effect from time to time. There are no significant commitment fees and no compensating balance requirements. The amended revolving credit facility contains various restrictions and covenants that are substantially similar to those under our previously existing credit agreement and require us, among other things, to: (i) limit our consolidated indebtedness as of the end of each fiscal quarter to no more than three and one-half times consolidated net earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and certain other adjustments during the period of four fiscal quarters then ended, and (ii) maintain consolidated net earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and certain other adjustments of at least three times consolidated interest expense as of the end of each fiscal quarter for the period of four fiscal quarters then ended. As of June 30, 2015, there were no outstanding borrowings on the revolving credit facility.

Term Loan

We maintain a term loan with a syndicate of banks that matures in October 2018 and bears interest at a variable rate based on LIBOR or on a base rate, plus a specified margin based on our long-term debt rating in effect from time to time. The variable interest rate on the term loan borrowings was 1.44% as of June 30, 2015. A remaining scheduled principal payment of $90 million is due on December 31, 2017, with the outstanding principal balance of $540 million due at maturity. The term loan facility contains various restrictions and covenants substantially similar to those contained in the revolving credit facility described above. In April 2015, we entered into an amendment to our term loan facility to conform certain of its terms to those in the amended and restated credit agreement, including providing that our subsidiaries that were guaranteeing our obligations under the term loan facility were released from their respective guarantees.

Senior Notes

In April 2015, we provided notice to the trustee under the indenture and supplemental indentures governing our outstanding senior notes that the subsidiary guarantors of the outstanding senior notes were automatically released from all of their obligations under the supplemental indentures and their respective guarantees.

In May 2015, we completed an offering of $1.75 billion of senior notes comprised of $850 million aggregate principal amount of 2.7% senior notes due in June 2020 and $900 million aggregate principal amount of 3.85% senior notes due in June 2025. The notes pay interest semi-annually on June 1 and December 1, commencing on December 1, 2015. The interest rate applicable to these notes is subject to an increase of up to two percent in the event that our credit rating is downgraded below investment grade. The indentures governing the senior notes contain covenants that, among other matters, limit (i) our ability to consolidate or merge into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of our properties and assets to, another person, (ii) our and certain of our subsidiaries’ ability to create or assume liens, and (iii) our and certain of our subsidiaries’ ability to engage in sale and leaseback transactions. We used the net proceeds from this offering to redeem our $600 million aggregated principal amount of 3.125% senior notes due in June 2016 and $500 million aggregate principal amount of 6.8% senior notes due in November 2017. We recorded a pre-tax loss on early debt extinguishment of $85 million related to make-whole payments and other costs associated with this redemption. In addition, we paid scheduled December 2015 and December 2016 principal payments on the term loan totaling $180 million and repaid outstanding borrowings under the amended and restated revolving credit facility. The remaining net proceeds from the offering are available for general corporate purposes.

At June 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, our $300 million aggregate principal amount of 3.125% senior notes due in October 2015 were classified in the consolidated balance sheets as long-term as we have the intent to refinance this debt on a long-term basis and the ability to do so under our amended and restated revolving credit facility.
