We maintain an unsecured revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks. During the first quarter of 2011, the facility was expanded from $475,000 to $550,000 and the maturity date was extended from June 30, 2012 to December 31, 2014. We also maintain two unsecured committed revolving bi-lateral credit facilities to the December 2014 bank syndicate facility. One is a U.S. dollar equivalent $14,631 facility that expires June 30, 2012. The second is a U.S. dollar equivalent $87,786 facility expiring September 17, 2013.

Our credit facilities have covenants that require us to maintain certain financial ratios. We were in compliance with these covenants as of October 28, 2011. Our debt covenants do not limit, nor are they reasonably likely to limit, our ability to obtain additional debt or equity financing.

 

To ensure availability of funds, we maintain uncommitted bank lines of credit sufficient to cover outstanding short-term borrowings. These arrangements are reviewed periodically for renewal and modification. Borrowings under these debt arrangements had an average annual interest rate of 6.59% in 2011, 6.57% in 2010 and 5.70% in 2009.

 

The future maturities of long-term debt are as follows:

         
    Maturities  
2012   $ 207,803  
2013     67,112  
2014     66  
2015     162,627  
2016      
Thereafter     450,000  

 

Interest paid during 2011, 2010 and 2009 was $62,095, $58,067 and $42,648, respectively.

 

The table below summarizes the carrying value and fair market value of our outstanding debt. The fair market value of our publicly traded debt is based on observable market prices. The fair market value of our non-publicly traded debt was estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on our current borrowing costs for debt with similar maturities.

We did not elect the option to report our debt at fair value in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

Our non-publicly traded debt consists of the following:

               
    2011   2010  
Commercial paper   $ 153,955   $  
Credit facility borrowings     74,827     130,714  
Industrial development bonds     12,502     12,502  
Uncommitted borrowings     15,840     8,088  
 Total Non-publicly Traded Debt   $ 257,124   $ 151,304  

 

We invest in short-term securities including money market funds with high-credit quality financial institutions and diversify our holdings among such financial institutions to reduce our exposure to credit losses. The fair values of our short-term securities are $38,005 and $41,839 as of October 28, 2011 and October 29, 2010, respectively. The money market funds are included in our cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash balances with the carrying values approximating the fair values as the maturities are less than three months. These assets are classified as Level 1 inputs under the fair value hierarchy. See Note 1 for more information on fair value measurements.

 

Restricted cash represents cash that is restricted from withdrawal. As of October 28, 2011 and October 29, 2010, we had restricted cash of $20,378 and $12,574, respectively. Such restricted cash primarily serves as collateral for our liability insurance programs.
