Credit Agreements and Short-Term Debt In May 2020, SCE entered into a revolving credit facility in an amount not to exceed $1.5 billion with a variable interest rate linked to changes in SCE's credit rating, which is currently LIBOR plus 150 basis points on drawn funds. The credit facility is available for borrowing needs until May 2021. As of September 30, 2020, there were no amounts drawn against the revolving credit facility. SCE's revolving credit facility is available for general corporate purposes, including to support liquidity needs that may arise as a result of undercollections due to the COVID-19 pandemic and related consumer protection measures. In March 2020, SCE borrowed $475 million under a term loan agreement due in March 2021, with a variable interest rate based on the LIBOR plus 60 basis points. The proceeds were used to repay commercial paper borrowings temporarily used to fund a portion of the approximately $1.6 billion in wildfire risk mitigation capital expenditures that SCE will exclude from the equity portion of SCE's rate base as required under AB 1054 ("AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures"). Additionally, in March 2020, SCE entered into a revolving credit facility in an amount not to exceed $800 million with a variable interest rate linked to changes in SCE's credit rating, which is currently LIBOR plus 65 basis points on drawn funds. The credit facility is available for borrowing needs until March 2021, and may be extended for two, 364-day periods, at the lenders' discretion. The aggregate maximum principal amount under the revolving credit facility may be increased up to $1.1 billion, provided that additional lender commitments are obtained. As of September 30, 2020, there was $654 million drawn against the revolving credit facility. The proceeds were used to finance AB 1054 Excluded Capital Expenditures.
