On May 29, 2013, we entered into agreements to initiate a commercial paper program on a private placement basis under which we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes (the “Notes”) from time-to-time up to a maximum aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time of $750 million. The proceeds from the issuance of the Notes are expected to be used for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of other debt of the Company. Our September 2011 credit agreement is available to repay the Notes, if necessary. Aggregate borrowings outstanding under the September 2011 credit agreement and the commercial paper program will not exceed the $750 million current maximum amount available under the September 2011 credit agreement. The Notes will be sold at a discount from par, or alternatively, will be sold at par and bear interest at rates that will vary based upon market conditions at the time of the issuance of the Notes. The maturities of the Notes will vary but may not exceed 397 days from the date of issue. The definitive documents relating to the Program contain customary representations, warranties, default and indemnification provisions. At September 30, 2013, we had $363.0 million of Notes outstanding bearing a weighted-average interest rate of approximately 0.32% and a weighted-average maturity of 41 days. While the outstanding Notes generally have short-term maturities, we classify the Notes as long-term based on our ability and intent to refinance the Notes on a long-term basis through the issuance of additional Notes or borrowings under the September 2011 credit agreement.
