(a)The fair value of our Senior Notes was determined using quoted prices in active markets for identical securities, which are considered Level 1 inputs. The fair value of our Senior Notes due 2021 was $640 million and $629 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The fair value of our Senior Notes due 2023 was $565 million and $591 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The fair value of our Senior Notes due 2026 was $533 million and $518 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. The fair value of our Senior Notes due 2046 was $400 million and $431 million as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. (b)The debt issuance costs and unamortized discount are recognized as a reduction in the carrying value of the Senior Notes in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are being amortized to interest expense in our Condensed Consolidated Income Statements over the expected remaining terms of the Senior Notes. Senior Notes On September 20, 2011, we issued 4.875% Senior Notes of $600 million aggregate principal amount due October 2021 (the "Senior Notes due 2021"). On March 11, 2016, we issued 2.250% Senior Notes of €500 million aggregate principal amount due March 2023 (the "Senior Notes due 2023"). On October 11, 2016, we issued 3.250% Senior Notes of $500 million aggregate principal amount due October 2026 (the “Senior Notes due 2026”) and 4.375% Senior Notes of $400 million aggregate principal amount due October 2046 (the “Senior Notes due 2046” and, together with the Senior Notes due 2021, the Senior Notes due 2023 and the Senior Notes due 2026, the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes include covenants that restrict our ability, subject to exceptions, to incur debt secured by liens and engage in sale and leaseback transactions, as well as provide for customary events of default (subject, in certain cases, to receipt of notice of default and/or customary grace and cure periods). We may redeem the Senior Notes, as applicable, in whole or in part, at any time at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of the Senior Notes to be redeemed, plus a make-whole premium. We may also redeem the Senior Notes in certain other circumstances, as set forth in the applicable Senior Notes indenture. If a change of control triggering event (as defined in the applicable Senior Notes indenture) occurs, we will be required to make an offer to purchase the Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase. Interest on the Senior Notes due 2021 is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year. Interest on the Senior Notes due 2023 is payable on March 11 of each year. Interest on the Senior Notes due 2026 and the Senior Notes due 2046 is payable on May 1 and November 1 of each year beginning on May 1, 2017. As of March 31, 2020, we are in compliance with all covenants for the Senior Notes. Credit Facilities 2019 Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility On March 5, 2019, Xylem entered into a Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility (the “2019 Credit Facility”) with Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and a syndicate of lenders. The 2019 Credit Facility provides for an aggregate principal amount of up to $800 million (available in U.S. Dollars and in Euros), with increases of up to $200 million for a maximum aggregate principal amount of $1 billion at the request of Xylem and with the consent of the institutions providing such increased commitments. Interest on all loans under the 2019 Credit Facility is payable either quarterly or at the expiration of any LIBOR or EURIBOR interest period applicable thereto. Borrowings accrue interest at a rate equal to, at Xylem's election, a base rate or an adjusted LIBOR or EURIBOR rate plus an applicable margin. The 2019 Credit Facility includes customary provisions for implementation of replacement rates for LIBOR-based and EURIBOR-based loans. The 2019 Credit Facility also includes a pricing grid that determines the applicable margin based on Xylem's credit rating, with a further adjustment depending on Xylem's annual Sustainalytics Environmental, Social and Governance score. Xylem will also pay quarterly fees to each lender for such lender’s commitment to lend accruing on such commitment at a rate based on our credit rating, whether such commitment is used or unused, as well as a quarterly letter of credit fee accruing on the letter of credit exposure of such lender during the preceding quarter at a rate based on the credit rating of Xylem (as adjusted for the Environmental, Social and Governance score). The 2019 Credit Facility requires that Xylem maintain a consolidated total debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio, which will be based on the last four fiscal quarters, and in addition a number of customary covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of secured debt and debt of subsidiaries, liens, sale and lease-back transactions, mergers, consolidations, liquidations, dissolutions and sales of assets. The 2019 Credit Facility also contains customary events of default. Finally, Xylem has the ability to designate subsidiaries that can borrow under the 2019 Credit Facility, subject to certain requirements and conditions set forth in the 2019 Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2020, the 2019 Credit Facility was undrawn and we are in compliance with all covenants. Commercial Paper U.S. Dollar Commercial Paper Program Our U.S. Dollar commercial paper program generally serves as a means of short-term funding with a $600 million maximum issuing balance and a combined limit of $800 million inclusive of the 2019 Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, none of the Company's $600 million U.S. Dollar commercial paper program was outstanding. We have the ability to continue borrowing under this program going forward in future periods. Euro Commercial Paper Program On June 3, 2019 Xylem entered into a Euro commercial paper program with ING Bank N.V., as administrative agent, and a syndicate of dealers. The Euro commercial paper program provides for a maximum issuing balance of up to €500 million (approximately $547 million) which may be denominated in a variety of currencies. The maximum issuing balance may be increased in accordance with the Dealer Agreement. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $268 million and $276 million of the Company's Euro commercial paper program was outstanding, respectively, at a weighted average interest rate of (0.21)%. We have the ability to continue borrowing under this program going forward in future periods. Other Borrowings Effective October 20, 2016, Xylem entered into an uncommitted short term facility with SEB Bank. The line of credit provides for an aggregate principal amount of up to €110 million (approximately $120 million). The full amount of €100M has been drawn on March 19, 2020 at an interest rate of 0.70% for a duration of three months with a maturity date on June 19, 2020. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $120 million and $0 million were outstanding under the uncommitted short term facility, respectively. Effective November 29, 2019, Xylem entered into an uncommitted short term facility with BGL BNP Paribas Bank. The line of credit provides for an aggregate principal amount of up to €65 million (approximately $71 million). The full amount of €65M has been drawn on March 19, 2020 at an interest rate of 1.25% for a duration of three months with a maturity date in June 19, 2020. No amounts were outstanding previously under the BGL BNP Paribas Bank short term facility. Subsequent Events On April 25, 2020, the Company’s subsidiary, Xylem Europe GmbH (the “borrower”) entered into a 12-month €100 million (approximately $109 million) term loan facility the terms of which are set forth in a term loan agreement, among the borrower, the Company, as parent guarantor and ING Bank. The Company has entered into a parent guarantee in favor of ING Bank also dated April 25, 2020 to secure all present and future obligations of the borrower under the Term Loan Agreement. Borrowings accrue interest at a rate equal to the EURIBOR or a replacement base rate, plus an applicable margin based on Xylem's credit rating. Xylem will also pay quarterly fees whether such commitment is used or unused. To date none of the ING Bank term facility has been drawn down upon. On April 30, 2020, the Company entered into a 12-month $50 million term loan facility the terms of which are set forth in a term loan agreement among the Company and Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Limited. Borrowings accrue interest at a rate equal to an adjusted LIBOR rate plus 1.50%. The full amount of $50 million has been drawn down upon on April 30, 2020.
