Revolving Credit Facility 
On April 3, 2024, the Company and Carlisle, LLC, as co-borrowers, entered into a Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto. The Credit Agreement provides for a $1.0 billion unsecured revolving line of credit with a maturity date of April 3, 2029 and amends and restates the Company's Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as amended (the "Prior Credit Agreement"), which was scheduled to expire on February 5, 2025. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company's election, (i) at the Base Rate plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.50% or (ii) at the applicable benchmark rate plus a margin ranging from 0.825% to 1.500%, in each case, based on the Company’s debt rating from time to time. The benchmark rate for loans denominated in (i) U.S. dollars is the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, (ii) Canadian dollars is the Adjusted Term CORRA Rate, (iii) Sterling is Daily Simple SONIA, (iv) euros is the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate and (v) yen is Adjusted TIBOR Rate. The commitments are also subject to a facility fee on the daily aggregate amount of the revolving commitment (whether used or unused) ranging from 0.05% to 0.25% based on the Company’s debt rating from time to time. Funding of the loans under the Credit Agreement is subject to customary drawdown conditions. The Company incurred $1.9 million of financing costs in the second quarter of 2024 in connection with finalizing the Credit Agreement, which together with any existing unamortized costs, will be recognized ratably over the new extended maturity date of the Credit Agreement.
The Credit Agreement has a feature that allows the Company to increase availability, at its option, by an aggregate amount of up to $500.0 million through increased commitments from existing lenders or the addition of new lenders. Under the Credit Agreement the Company may also enter into commitments in the form of standby, commercial, or direct pay letters of credit for an amount not to exceed $50.0 million. 
As of December 31, 2024, the Company had no borrowings and $1.0 billion available under the Credit Agreement. During 2024, borrowings and repayments under the Credit Agreement totaled $22.0 million, respectively, with a weighted average interest rate of 8.50%.
