In June 2014, we issued $1 billion of unsecured fixed rate debt at 2.3% that matures in June 2019 and $1 billion of unsecured fixed rate debt at 3.5% that matures in July 2024. We used proceeds from these issuances to repurchase $725 million of debt at a market value of $1 billion and for general corporate purposes, including the payment of $1 billion of debt maturities. We recognized a loss of $285 million on the early retirement, which was recorded in net interest expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Concurrent with the sale of our credit card receivables portfolio in March 2013, we repaid $1.5 billion of nonrecourse debt collateralized by credit card receivables (the 2006/2007 Series Variable Funding Certificate). We also used $1.4 billion of proceeds from the transaction to repurchase at market value an additional $970 million of debt during the first quarter of 2013. We recognized a loss on this early retirement of $445 million, which was recorded in net interest expense in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. Refer to Note 3 for more information on our credit card receivables transaction.
