Debt Financing
LINE OF CREDIT AGREEMENTS At December 31, 2023, the Company had a line of credit agreement of $4.0 billion, which expires in June 2028. The Company incurs fees of 0.08% per annum on the total commitment, which remained unused. Fees and interest rates on this line are primarily based on the Company's long-term credit rating assigned by Moody’s and Standard & Poor's. In addition, the Company's subsidiaries had unused lines of credit that were primarily uncommitted, short-term and denominated in various currencies at local market rates of interest. The weighted-average interest rate of short-term borrowings was 5.4% at December 31, 2023 (based on $119.9 million of foreign currency bank line borrowings and $347.6 million of commercial paper outstanding) and 5.2% at December 31, 2022 (based on $264.5 million of foreign currency bank line borrowings). DEBT OBLIGATIONS The Company has incurred debt obligations principally through public and private offerings and bank loans. There are no provisions in the Company’s debt obligations that would accelerate repayment of debt as a result of a change in credit ratings or a material adverse change in the Company’s business. Certain of the Company’s debt obligations contain cross-acceleration provisions, and restrictions on Company and subsidiary mortgages and the long-term debt of certain subsidiaries. Under certain agreements, the Company has the option to retire debt prior to maturity, either at par or at a premium over par. The Company has no current plans to retire a significant amount of its debt prior to maturity, but continues to look for ways to optimize its debt portfolio. The following table summarizes the Company’s debt obligations (interest rates and debt amounts reflected in the table include the effects of interest rate swaps used to hedge debt).
