BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS	NOTE B. BORROWING ARRANGEMENTS Credit Facility We have a credit facility which provides for a $500,000,000 unsecured revolving line of credit (“revolver”) and a $300,000,000 unsecured term loan facility (“term loan”). The revolver may be used to borrow revolving loans or request the issuance of letters of credit. We may, upon notice to the administrative agent, request existing or new lenders to increase the revolver by up to $250,000,000, at such lenders’ option, to provide for a total of $750,000,000 of unsecured revolving credit. The revolver matures on January 8, 2023, at which time all outstanding borrowings must be repaid and all outstanding letters of credit must be cash collateralized. We may, prior to the first and second anniversaries of the closing date of the amendment of the credit facility, elect to extend the maturity date for an additional year, subject to lender approval. During the second quarter and for year-to-date fiscal 2018, we had no borrowings under the revolver. During the second quarter and year-to-date fiscal 2017, we had borrowings of $70,000,000 and $115,000,000, respectively, under the revolver both at a weighted average interest rate of 2.24%. Additionally, as of July 29, 2018, $13,574,000 in issued but undrawn standby letters of credit was outstanding under the credit facility. The standby letters of credit were issued to secure the liabilities associated with workers’ compensation and other insurance programs. As of July 29, 2018, we had $300,000,000 outstanding under our term loan (at a weighted average interest rate of 3.00%). The term loan matures on January 8, 2021, at which time all outstanding principal and any accrued interest must be repaid. The interest rates under the credit facility are variable, and may be elected by us as: (i) the London Interbank Offer Rate plus an applicable margin based on our leverage ratio ranging from 0.91% to 1.775% for revolver borrowings, and 1.0% to 2.0% for the term loan; or (ii) a base rate as defined in the credit facility plus an applicable margin ranging from 0% to 0.775% for revolver borrowings, and 0% to 1.0% for the term loan. As of July 29, 2018, we are in compliance with our financial covenants under the credit facility and, based on current projections, we expect to remain in compliance throughout the next 12 months. Letter of Credit Facilities We have three unsecured letter of credit reimbursement facilities for a total of $70,000,000. On August 24, 2018, we renewed all three of our letter of credit facilities for an aggregate of $70,000,000 and extended each of these facilities’ maturity dates until August 24, 2019. The letter of credit facilities contain covenants that are consistent with our credit facility. Interest on unreimbursed amounts under the letter of credit facilities accrues at a base rate as defined in the credit facility plus an applicable margin based on our leverage ratio. As of July 29, 2018, an aggregate of $6,049,000 was outstanding under the letter of credit facilities, which represents only a future commitment to fund inventory purchases to which we had not taken legal title. The latest expiration possible for any future letters of credit issued under the facilities is January 21, 2020.
