OUR LINES OF CREDIT
During June 2011, we entered into a new $1 billion 4-year revolving credit facility that expires June 2015. This replaces a $1 billion revolving credit facility that was set to expire December 2011. Conditions of the line of credit include the following:
The entire amount is available to Weyerhaeuser Company.
$50 million of the amount is available to Weyerhaeuser Real Estate Company (WRECO).
Neither Weyerhaeuser Company nor WRECO is a guarantor of the borrowing of the other.
Borrowings are at LIBOR plus a spread or at other interest rates mutually agreed upon between the borrower and the lending banks. As of December 31, 2011, there were no borrowings outstanding under the facility.
As of December 31, 2011, Weyerhaeuser Company and WRECO were in compliance with the credit facility covenants.
