BANK FACILITIES 2025 Credit Agreement In April 2025, the Company, CB International, the Administrative Agent, and certain other lenders entered into the 2025 Restatement Agreement that amended and restated our then-existing credit facility (as amended and restated by the 2025 Restatement Agreement, the 2025 Credit Agreement). The principal changes effected by the 2025 Restatement Agreement were (i) refinancing the existing $2.25 billion revolving credit facility, (ii) extending its maturity to April 28, 2030, and (iii) refining certain negative covenants. 2025 Term Credit Agreement In May 2025, the Company, the Administrative Agent, and certain other lenders entered into the 2025 Term Credit Agreement. The 2025 Term Credit Agreement provided for a six-month delayed draw $500.0 million term loan facility. Effective October 21, 2025, we terminated all commitments under the 2025 Term Credit Agreement. General We and our subsidiaries are subject to covenants that are contained in the 2025 Credit Agreement, including those restricting the incurrence of additional subsidiary indebtedness, additional liens, mergers and consolidations, transactions with affiliates, and sale and leaseback transactions, in each case subject to numerous conditions, exceptions, and thresholds. The financial covenants are limited to a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum net leverage ratio. Our senior credit facility permits us to elect, subject to the willingness of existing or new lenders to fund such increase and other customary conditions, to increase the revolving credit commitments. The increased commitments may be an unlimited amount so long as our net leverage ratio, as defined and computed pursuant to our senior credit facility, is no greater than 4.00 to 1.00 subject to certain limitations for the period defined pursuant to our senior credit facility. Information with respect to borrowings under our bank facilities is as follows:
| Outstanding borrowings |  | Interest rate |  | SOFR margin |  | Outstanding letters of credit |  | Remaining borrowing capacity

Revolving credit facility (2) (3) (4) | $ | — |  | —% |  | —% |  | $ | 11.3 |  | $ | 1,430.7
(1)Net of outstanding revolving credit facility borrowings and outstanding letters of credit under the 2025 Credit Agreement, and outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper program of $272.1 million (excluding unamortized discount) (see “Commercial paper program” below). (2)Contractual interest rate varies based on our debt rating (as defined in the agreement) and is a function of SOFR plus a margin and a credit spread adjustment, or the base rate plus a margin, or, in certain circumstances where SOFR cannot be adequately ascertained or available, an alternative benchmark rate plus a margin. (3)We and/or CB International are the borrower under the $2,250.0 million revolving credit facility. Includes a sub-facility for letters of credit of up to $200.0 million. (4)Net of outstanding revolving credit facility borrowings and outstanding letters of credit under our then-existing senior credit facility, and outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper program of $808.0 million (excluding unamortized discount) (see “Commercial paper program” below). Commercial paper program We have a commercial paper program which provides for the issuance of up to an aggregate principal amount of $2.25 billion of commercial paper. Our commercial paper program is backed by unused commitments under our revolving credit facility under our 2025 Credit Agreement. Accordingly, outstanding borrowings under our commercial paper program reduce the amount available under our revolving credit facility. Information with respect to our outstanding commercial paper borrowings is as follows:
| February 28, 2026 |  | February 28, 2025
(in millions) |  |  |
Outstanding borrowings (1) | $ | 272.0 |  |  | $ | 806.7
Weighted average annual interest rate | 3.9% |  | 4.7%
Weighted average remaining term | 6 days |  | 13 days
(1)Outstanding commercial paper borrowings are net of unamortized discount. Pre-issuance hedge contracts In February 2026, we entered into Pre-issuance hedge contracts, which were designated as cash flow hedges. As a result, we have hedged the treasury rate on $50.0 million of future debt issuances. Upon the termination and settlement of these contracts, the unrealized gain (loss) will be recognized in AOCI within our consolidated balance sheets and amortized to interest expense, net within our consolidated results of operations. Senior notes Information on our senior notes, all of which are senior unsecured obligations that rank equally in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness, is as follows:
