⁽¹⁾	We have either the obligation or the option to pay cash for the aggregate amount due upon conversion for all of our convertible notes. Since it is our current intent to settle in cash the principal amount of all of our convertible notes upon conversion, the dilutive effect of such notes on earnings per share is computed under the treasury stock method.

⁽²⁾ Weighted-average imputed rate of 4.3% and 4.1% as of August 28, 2014 and August 29, 2013, respectively.


⁽³⁾	Amount recorded for 2014 includes the debt and equity components, which was reclassified as a result of our obligation to settle the conversions of the 2031B Notes.

⁽⁴⁾

Since the closing price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days in the 30 trading day period ending on June 30, 2014 exceeded 130% of the initial conversion price per share, holders have the right to convert their notes at any time during the calendar quarter ended September 30, 2014. The closing price of our common stock also exceeded the thresholds for the calendar quarter ended September 30, 2014; therefore, these notes are convertible by the holders through December 31, 2014.

⁽⁵⁾ As a result of these notes being convertible at the option of the holder through September 30, 2014, and because the terms of these notes would require us to pay cash for the principal amount of any converted notes, amounts are classified as current.

Our senior notes are unsecured obligations ranking equally in right of payment with all of our other existing and future unsecured indebtedness, and are effectively subordinated to all of our other existing and future secured indebtedness, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. Our parent company, MTI, has $3.89 billion of debt including all of our convertible notes, the 2022 Notes and the 2025 Notes, which are structurally subordinated to $1.57 billion of capital lease obligations and notes payable of its subsidiaries. MTI guarantees certain debt obligations of its subsidiaries. MTI does not guarantee the MMJ creditor installment payments. MTI's guarantees of its subsidiary debt obligations are unsecured obligations ranking equally in right of payment with all of MTI's other existing and future unsecured indebtedness.

2014 Debt Restructure

In 2014, we initiated a series of actions to restructure our debt, including exchanges, conversions and settlements, repurchases, issuances and early repayments. The following table presents the net effect of each of the actions:



	Increase (Decrease) in Principal			Increase (Decrease) in Carrying Value			Increase (Decrease) in Cash			(Decrease) in Equity			Loss⁽¹⁾
Exchanges	$	585		$	282		$	—		$	(238	)	$	49

	$	1,371		$	1,454		$	(485	)	$	(1,691	)	$	205


⁽¹⁾	The loss on 2014 debt restructure activities was recorded as $184 million in other non-operating expense and $21 million in interest expense in 2014.


•	Exchanges: Exchanged $440 million in aggregate principal amount of our 2027 Notes, 2031A Notes and 2031B Notes into $1.03 billion principal amount at maturity of 2043G Notes.


•	Conversions and Settlements: Holders of substantially all of our remaining 2014 Notes, 2027 Notes and 2031A Notes (with an aggregate principal amount of $770 million) converted their notes and we settled the conversions in cash for $1.45 billion.


•	Repurchases: Repurchased $320 million in aggregate principal amount of our 2031B Notes, 2032C Notes and 2032D Notes in privately-negotiated transactions for an aggregate of $857 million in cash.


•	Issuances: Issued $600 million in principal amount of 5.875% senior notes due February 2022 and $1.15 billion in principal amount of 5.500% senior notes due February 2025. Issued $462 million in principal amount of 1.258% senior notes due 2019 Notes, payable in 10 semi-annual installments commencing in July 2014.


•	Early Repayments: Repaid $334 million of notes and capital leases prior to their scheduled maturities. (See "Other Notes Payable" below.)

Subsequent to 2014, we settled an aggregate principal amount of $114 million of our remaining 2031B Notes for $389 million in cash and repaid a $120 million note prior to its scheduled maturity. (See "Other Notes Payable" below.)

The following discussion provides further details of our 2014 debt restructure activities:

Exchanges: During 2014, in a series of separate non-cash transactions, we exchanged portions of our 2027 Notes, 2031A Notes and 2031B Notes (collectively, the "Exchanged Notes") into 2043G Notes (collectively, the "Exchange Transactions"). In connection with the Exchange Transactions, which were accounted for as extinguishments, we issued to holders of the Exchanged Notes new 2043G Notes with an aggregate principal amount at issuance of $820 million, which accrete up to a principal amount at maturity of $1.03 billion (see further discussion in "2043G Notes" below). The liability and equity components of the Exchanged Notes had previously been stated separately within debt and additional capital in our consolidated balance sheet. As a result, our accounting for the Exchanged Notes affected debt and equity. In connection with the Exchange Transactions, we recognized a loss of $49 million based primarily on the difference between the carrying values and the fair values of the debt components of the Exchanged Notes, of which $38 million was included in other non-operating expense for 2014. The fair value of the debt component of each of the Exchanged Notes was determined as if they were stand-alone instruments using interest rates for similar nonconvertible debt issued by entities with credit ratings comparable to ours at the time of issuance (based on Level 2 fair value measurements). The table below summarizes the Exchange Transactions:



	Principal Amount		Carrying Value of Debt		Equity
Amounts reduced in connection with the Exchanged Notes:
2027 Notes	$	80	$	68	$	51
2031A Notes	155		125		148
2031B Notes	205		152		212
	440		345		411
Amounts added in connection with the issued notes:
2043G Notes	1,025		627		173

Net increase (decrease) as a result of the Exchange Transactions	$	585	$	282	$	(238	)

Conversions and Settlements: During 2014, we initiated a series of actions resulting in a number of debt conversions and settlements. Those actions included the following:

Termination of Conversion Rights of our 2027 Notes – On November 7, 2013, we announced the termination of the conversion rights for our remaining 2027 Notes, effective on December 13, 2013. Prior to such effective date, substantially all of the holders of our 2027 Notes exercised their option to convert their notes and, in each case, we elected to settle the conversion amount entirely in cash.

Redemption of our 2031A Notes – On November 7, 2013, we called for the redemption of our remaining 2031A Notes effective on December 7, 2013. Prior to such effective date, substantially all of the holders of our 2031A Notes exercised their option to convert their notes and, in each case, we elected to settle the conversion amount entirely in cash.

Redemption of our 2014 Notes – On January 31, 2014, we called for the redemption of our remaining 2014 Notes effective on March 3, 2014. Prior to such effective date, substantially all of the holders of our 2014 Notes exercised their option to convert their notes and, in each case, we elected to settle the conversion amount entirely in cash.

Redemption of our 2031B Notes – On July 23, 2014, we called for the redemption of our remaining 2031B Notes with a principal amount of $114 million effective on August 22, 2014. Prior to such effective date, substantially all of the holders of our 2031B Notes exercised their option to convert their notes and, in each case, we elected to settle the conversion amount entirely in cash. All conversions of the 2031B Notes were settled in the first quarter of 2015.

As a result of our elections to settle the conversion amounts in cash, each of the settlement obligations became derivative debt liabilities subject to mark-to-market accounting treatment. Under the terms of the indentures for the above notes, cash settlement amounts for these derivative debt liabilities were determined based on the shares underlying the converted notes multiplied by the volume-weighted-average price of our common stock over a period of 20 consecutive trading days, beginning three days after the holder's election to convert their notes. Therefore, we reclassified the fair values of the equity components of each of the converted notes from additional capital to derivative debt liabilities within current debt in our consolidated balance sheet. In connection with the above, we used an aggregate of $1.45 billion in cash in 2014 and $389 million in 2015 to settle conversion activities. A summary of the conversion activities for these notes is as follows:



	Debt Principal		(Increase) Decrease in Carrying Value of Debt			Equity Component Reclassified To Debt⁽¹⁾		Loss⁽²⁾
2014 Notes	$	485	$	478		$	341	$	9
2027 Notes	95		80			58		42
2031A Notes	190		154			217		70
2031B Notes⁽³⁾	—		(275		)	270		9
	$	770	$	437		$	886	$	130

⁽¹⁾ Based on Level 2 fair value measurements.

⁽²⁾ The loss on conversion and settlement activities was recorded as $120 million in other non-operating expense and $10 million in interest expense in 2014.

⁽³⁾ In the first quarter of 2015, we used an aggregate of $389 million in cash to settle the remaining 2031B Notes. In connection therewith, we incurred an additional charge of $24 million for the settlement of the 2031B Notes in the first quarter of 2015.

Repurchases: During 2014, we repurchased $320 million in aggregate principal amount of our 2031B Notes, 2032C Notes and 2032D Notes in privately-negotiated transactions for an aggregate of $857 million in cash, collectively referred to herein as the "Repurchased Notes." In connection with the Repurchased Notes, we recognized losses (based on Level 2 fair value measurements) of $23 million in 2014, which were included in other non-operating expense.

The liability and equity components of the Repurchased Notes had previously been stated separately within debt and additional capital in our consolidated balance sheet. As a result, our accounting for the Repurchased Notes affect debt and equity. The table below summarizes amounts reduced in 2014 in connection with the Repurchased Notes:



	Principal Amount		Carrying Value of Debt		Equity
2031B Notes	$	26	$	19	$	43
2032C Notes	188		161		316
2032D Notes	106		89		208
	$	320	$	269	$	567

Issuances: During 2014, as part of our debt restructure activities, we issued the following senior notes:

5.875% Senior Notes due February 2022: On February 10, 2014, we issued $600 million in principal amount of the 2022 Notes. Issuance costs for the 2022 Notes totaled $14 million.

The 2022 Notes contain covenants that, among other things, limit, in certain circumstances, our ability and/or the ability of our domestic restricted subsidiaries (which are generally subsidiaries in the U.S. in which we own at least 80% of the voting stock) to (1) create or incur certain liens and enter into sale and lease-back transactions, (2) create, assume, incur or guarantee certain additional secured indebtedness and unsecured indebtedness of certain of our domestic restricted subsidiaries, and (3) consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of our assets, to another entity. These covenants are subject to a number of limitations, exceptions and qualifications.

Cash Redemption at Our Option: Prior to February 15, 2017, we may redeem the 2022 Notes, in whole or in part, at a price equal to the principal amount of the 2022 Notes to be redeemed plus a make-whole premium as described in the indenture governing the 2022 Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest. On or after February 15, 2017, we may redeem the 2022 Notes, in whole or in part, at prices above the principal amount that decline over time, as specified in the indenture, together with accrued and unpaid interest. Additionally, prior to February 15, 2017, we may use the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings to redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes at a price equal to 105.875% of the principal amount together with accrued and unpaid interest.

5.500% Senior Notes due February 2025: On July 28, 2014, we issued $1.15 billion in principal amount of the 2025 Notes. Issuance costs for the 2025 Notes totaled $13 million.

The 2025 Notes contain covenants that, among other things, limit, in certain circumstances, our ability and/or the ability of our domestic restricted subsidiaries (which are generally subsidiaries in the U.S. in which we own at least 80% of the voting stock) to (1) create or incur certain liens and enter into sale and lease-back transactions, (2) create, assume, incur or guarantee certain additional secured indebtedness and unsecured indebtedness of certain of our domestic restricted subsidiaries, and (3) consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of our assets, to another entity. These covenants are subject to a number of limitations, exceptions and qualifications.

Cash Redemption at Our Option: Prior to August 1, 2019, we may redeem the 2025 Notes, in whole or in part, at a price equal to the principal amount of the 2025 Notes to be redeemed plus a make-whole premium as described in the indenture governing the 2025 Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest. On or after August 1, 2019, we may redeem the 2025 Notes, in whole or in part, at prices above the principal amount that decline over time, as specified in the indenture, together with accrued and unpaid interest. Additionally, prior to August 1, 2017, we may use the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings to redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes at a price equal to 105.5% of the principal amount together with accrued and unpaid interest.

2013 Debt Restructure

During 2013, we repurchased $464 million of aggregate principal amount of our 2014 Notes for $477 million in cash in privately negotiated transactions. The liability and equity components of the 2014 Notes had previously been stated separately within debt and additional capital in our consolidated balance sheet. As a result, the repurchase resulted in the derecognition of $431 million in debt for the principal amount (net of $33 million of debt discount) and $15 million in additional capital for the equity component. We recognized a loss of $31 million (based on Level 2 fair value measurements) in 2013, which was included in other non-operating expense.

MMJ Creditor Installment Payments

Under the MMJ Companies' plans of reorganization, which set forth the treatment of the MMJ Companies' pre-petition creditors and their claims, the MMJ Companies were required to pay 200 billion yen, less certain expenses of the reorganization proceedings and other items, to their secured and unsecured creditors in seven annual installment payments (the "MMJ Creditor Installment Payments"). The MMJ Creditor Installment Payments do not provide for interest and were recorded at fair value in the MMJ Acquisition. The fair-value discount is accreted to interest expense over the term of the installment payments.

Under the MMJ Companies' corporate reorganization proceedings, the secured creditors of MMJ will recover 100% of their amount of their fixed claims in 6 annual installment payments through December 2018 and the unsecured creditors will recover at least 17.4% of the amount of their fixed claims in 7 annual installment payments through December 2019. In October 2013, we paid the first installment payment of 51 billion yen to the reorganization creditors of the MMJ Companies. The secured creditors of MAI were paid in full with a portion of the first installment payment made in October 2013, while the unsecured creditors of MAI will recover at least 19% of the amount of their claims in 7 installment payments through December 2019. The remaining portion of the unsecured claims of the creditors of the MMJ Companies not recovered pursuant to the Reorganization Proceedings will be discharged, without payment, through December 2019.

The following table presents the remaining amounts of MMJ Creditor Installment Payments (stated in Japanese yen and U.S. dollars) and the amount of unamortized discount as of August 28, 2014:



	MMJ Creditor Installment Payments
2015	¥	20,330		$	196
2016	20,197			194
2017	20,063			193
2018	19,928			192
2019	28,674			276

Less unamortized discount	(24,700		)	(238		)
MMJ Creditor Installment Payments	¥	117,516		$	1,131

Pursuant to the terms of the Sponsor Agreement, we entered into a series of agreements with the MMJ Companies, including supply agreements, research and development services agreements and general services agreements, which are intended to generate operating cash flows to meet the requirements of the MMJ Companies' businesses, including the funding of the MMJ Creditor Installment Payments.

Capital Lease Obligations

We have various capital lease obligations due in periodic installments with a weighted-average remaining term of 4.1 years as of August 28, 2014. In 2013, we received $126 million in proceeds from equipment sale-leaseback transactions and as a result recorded capital lease obligations aggregating $126 million at a weighted-average effective interest rate of 4.3%, payable in periodic installments through July 2017.

Convertible Notes With Debt and Equity Components

Accounting standards for convertible debt instruments that may be fully or partially settled in cash upon conversion require the debt and equity components to be separately accounted for in a manner that reflects a nonconvertible borrowing rate when interest expense is recognized in subsequent periods. The amount initially recorded as debt is based on the fair value of the debt component as a standalone instrument, determined using an interest rate for similar nonconvertible debt issued by entities with credit ratings similar to ours at the time of issuance. The difference between the debt recorded at inception and its principal amount is accreted to principal through interest expense through the estimated life of the note.

The terms of our convertible notes give holders the right to require us to repurchase all or a portion of their notes at a date or dates earlier than the contractual maturity of the notes or upon the occurrence of certain events or circumstances. In these cases, we amortize any initial debt discount or imputed interest over the period from issuance of the notes through the earliest date that holders can require us to repurchase all or a portion of their notes. As a result, the period of amortization can be significantly shorter than the contractual maturity. (See "Holder Put Date" in the table below.)

As of August 28, 2014, the trading price of our common stock was higher than the initial conversion prices of all of our outstanding convertible notes. As a result, the conversion values were in excess of principal amounts for such notes. The following table summarizes certain features of our convertible notes outstanding as of August 28, 2014:



	Holder Put Date	Outstanding Principal		Underlying Shares	Initial Conversion Price Per Share		Conversion Price Per Share Threshold⁽¹⁾		Conversion Value in Excess of Principal⁽²⁾
2032C Notes	May 2019	$	362	38	$	9.63	$	12.52	$	873
2032D Notes	May 2021	344		34	9.98		12.97		785
2033E Notes	February 2018	300		27	10.93		14.21		600

		$	2,331	161					$	2,986


⁽¹⁾	Holders have the right to convert all or a portion of their notes at a date or dates earlier than the contractual maturity if, during any calendar quarter, the closing price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the preceding calendar quarter is more than 130% of the initial conversion price.


⁽²⁾	Based on our closing share price of $32.81 as of August 28, 2014.


⁽³⁾	The original principal amount of $820 million accretes up to $917 million in November 2028 and $1.03 billion at maturity in 2043.

The debt and equity components of all of our convertible notes outstanding as of August 28, 2014 were required to be accounted for separately. Principal and carrying amounts of the liability components for our convertible notes were as follows:



As of		2014							2013

⁽¹⁾	Expected term for amortization of the remaining debt discount as of August 28, 2014. The expected term of the 2031B Notes was not applicable because substantially all of the holders had exercised their option to convert their notes, which were settled in cash in the first quarter of 2015.

⁽²⁾ As holders had elected to convert these notes and we elected to settle the conversions in cash, net carrying amount for 2014 included the debt and equity components, which was reclassified as a result of our obligation to settle the conversions of the 2031B Notes.

Carrying amounts of the equity components, which are included in additional capital in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, for our convertible notes, were as follows:



As of	2014		2013
2014 Notes	$	—	$	353
2027 Notes	—		40

Interest expense for our convertible notes consisting of contractual interest and amortization of discount and issuance costs aggregated $132 million, $156 million and $124 million for 2014, 2013 and 2012. Interest expense by note was as follows:

2019 Notes

On December 20, 2013, we issued $462 million in principal amount of the 2019 Notes. The 2019 Notes mature on January 15, 2019 and are collateralized by certain equipment, which had a carrying value of $190 million as of August 28, 2014. The principal amount of the 2019 Notes is payable in 10 semi-annual installments in January and July of each year, commencing in July 2014. The Export-Import Bank of the United States (the "Ex-Im Bank") guaranteed payment of all regularly scheduled installment payments of principal of, and interest on, the 2019 Notes. We paid $23 million to Ex-Im Bank for its guarantee upon issuance of the 2019 Notes.

2043G Notes

In connection with the Exchange Transactions, on November 12, 2013, we issued $1.03 billion principal amount of the 2043G Notes. Each $1,000 of principal amount at maturity had an original issue price of $800. An amount equal to the difference between the original issue price and the principal amount at maturity will accrete in accordance with a schedule set forth in the indenture. The initial conversion rate for the 2043G Notes is 34.2936 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount at maturity, equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $29.16 per share of common stock.

Upon issuance of the 2043G Notes, we recorded $627 million of debt, $173 million of additional capital and $5 million of deferred debt issuance costs (included in other noncurrent assets). The amount recorded as debt was based on the fair value of the debt component as a standalone instrument and was determined using an interest rate for similar nonconvertible debt issued by entities with credit ratings comparable to ours at the time of issuance (Level 2 fair value measurements). We recorded a debt discount of $398 million for the difference between the debt recorded at inception and the principal amount at maturity. Holders of the 2043G Notes have the right to require us to repurchase all or a portion of their notes on November 15, 2028 at the accreted principal amount, which is scheduled to be $917 million at such date. We have the option to pay cash, issue shares of common stock or any combination thereof, for the aggregate amount due upon conversion.
