(1) | On June 29, 2018, the Company redeemed $1.6 billion of its $2.65 billion Senior Notes with an original maturity date of October 5, 2018. These notes were fully hedged with interest rate swaps. As part of the transaction, HPE terminated and settled a proportional amount of the hedges, as well as allocated a proportional amount of unamortized discount and debt issuance costs to the retired debt. These costs, along with the redemption price of $1.6 billion resulted in an immaterial loss.
(2) | Other, including capital lease obligations includes $143 million and $160 million as of July 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017, respectively, of borrowing- and funding-related activity associated with FS and its subsidiaries that are collateralized by receivables and underlying assets associated with the related capital and operating leases. For both the periods presented, the carrying amount of the assets approximated the carrying amount of the borrowings.
