(1)The notes are carried at the principal amount of each note, less any unamortized discount and unamortized debt issuance costs. (2)The Senior Notes are the Company’s senior unsecured obligations and rank equally with all other existing and future senior unsecured debt obligations. (3)On April 13, 2023, the Company issued $300 million of publicly registered 5.450% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “5.450% Senior Notes”). The Company used the net proceeds for general corporate purposes, including, together with available cash, repayment of the $300 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 4.900% Senior Notes due in July 2023. (4)On February 10, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to its senior unsecured credit agreement dated as of January 22, 2020 (as amended, the “Credit Facility”). The Amendment, among other things, (i) instituted certain amendments to the sustainability-linked adjustments to the interest rates applicable to borrowings under the three-year revolving credit facility (the “Three-Year Revolving Credit Facility”) and the Company’s five-year revolving credit facility (the “Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility”), (ii) established customary SOFR, CDOR, EURIBOR and TIBOR provisions, which replaced the LIBOR provisions set forth in the existing agreement, and (iii) extended the termination date of the Three-Year Revolving Credit Facility to January 22, 2025, and of the Five-Year Revolving Credit Facility to January 22, 2027. (5)On May 4, 2022, the Company issued $500 million of registered 4.250% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Green Bonds” or the “4.250% Senior Notes”). On May 31, 2022, the net proceeds from the offering were used to redeem the Company’s 4.700% Senior Notes due in 2022 and pay the applicable “make-whole” premium and accrued interest. In addition, the Company intends to allocate an amount equal to the net proceeds from this offering to finance or refinance eligible expenditures under the Company’s new green financing framework. (6)As of August 31, 2023, the Company has $3.8 billion in available unused borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facilities. The Credit Facility acts as the back-up facility for commercial paper outstanding, if any. The Company has a borrowing capacity of up to $3.2 billion under its commercial paper program.
