Our U.S. revolving credit facility, which matures on October 27, 2027, has a capacity of $1,100,000 and provides an expansion option, which permits us to request an increase of up to $400,000 to the credit facility upon satisfaction of certain conditions. The weighted-average interest rate on the outstanding U.S revolving credit facility borrowings is 5.80% and is based on SOFR plus the applicable margin, which was 1.60% at September 27, 2025. On May 30, 2025, we amended and restated our loan agreement to include a $250,000 term loan, with installment payments of $3,125 in 2026, $9,375 in 2027 and the remaining balance on the maturity date of October 27, 2027. Additional principal payments may be required under certain conditions. The proceeds of the term loan were used to pay down outstanding revolver borrowings of the U.S. revolving credit facility. The interest rate on the term loan borrowings was 5.90% and is based on SOFR plus the applicable margin, which was 1.60% at September 27, 2025. The U.S. revolving credit facility and term loan are secured by substantially all of our U.S. assets and contain various covenants which, among others, specify interest coverage and maximum leverage. We are in compliance with all covenants.

On November 6, 2024, the SECT amended the revolving credit facility, which reduced the borrowing capacity from $35,000 to $25,000 and extended the maturity date from October 26, 2025 to October 26, 2026. Interest is based on SOFR plus an applicable margin of 2.23%. A commitment fee is also charged based on a percentage of the unused amounts available and is not material.

We have $500,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.25% senior notes due December 15, 2027 with interest paid semiannually on June 15 and December 15 of each year. The senior notes are unsecured obligations, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain subsidiaries and contain normal incurrence-based covenants and limitations such as the ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, make other restricted payments and investments, create liens and certain corporate acts such as mergers and consolidations. We are in compliance with all covenants. The effective interest rate for these notes after considering the amortization of deferred debt issuance costs is 4.60%.

Maturities of long-term debt are:

	2026		2027		2028		2029		2030		Thereafter
Long-term debt maturities	$	3,125	$	10,375	$	932,500	$	—	$	—	$	—

At September 27, 2025, we had pledged assets with a net book value of $2,163,282 as security for long-term debt.

At September 27, 2025, we had $925,388 of unused short and long-term borrowing capacity, including $900,721 from the U.S. revolving credit facility.

Commitment fees are charged on some of these arrangements and on the U.S. revolving credit facility based on a percentage of the unused amounts available and are not material.
