Short-term debt
As of December 31, 2016, we had no borrowings against our unsecured revolving credit facility (as amended, the "Credit Facility"), as described below.
Revolving Credit Facility
In March 2016, we increased our $3.0 billion unsecured Credit Facility to $3.3 billion and maintained a maturity date of May 2020. Fees on the unused commitment of each lender, as well as the borrowing options under the Credit Facility, remain unaffected by this increase. We have the ability to request two one-year extensions and an option to increase the commitment amount by up to an additional $200 million, subject to the consent of any increasing lenders.  The sub-facilities for swing-line loans and letters of credit remain unchanged allowing up to an aggregate amount of $100 million and $500 million, respectively.  Fees on the unused commitment of each lender, as well as the borrowing options under the Credit Facility, remain unchanged.
The Credit Facility includes a covenant requiring that our ratio of total debt to total capitalization not exceed 65% as of the last day of each fiscal quarter. If an event of default occurs, the lenders holding more than half of the commitments may terminate the commitments under the Credit Facility and require the immediate repayment of all outstanding borrowings and the cash collateralization of all outstanding letters of credit under the Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2016, we were in compliance with this covenant with a debt-to-capitalization ratio of 29%.

Debt Issuance
On June 10, 2015, we issued $2 billion aggregate principal amount of unsecured senior notes which consist of the following series:
$600 million of 2.70% senior notes due June 1, 2020
$900 million of 3.85% senior notes due June 1, 2025
$500 million of 5.20% senior notes due June 1, 2045
Interest on each series of senior notes is payable semi-annually beginning December 1, 2015. We may redeem some or all of the senior notes at any time at the applicable redemption price, plus accrued interest, if any. The aggregate net proceeds were used to repay our $1 billion 0.90% senior notes that matured in November 2015, and the remainder for general corporate purposes.
