Financing Arrangements

During 2020, the Company amended and extended its existing multi-currency credit agreement, increasing its capacity to $2,500,000. As of June 30, 2020, $1,776,500 was available for borrowing under the credit agreement. The credit agreement expires in September 2024; however, the Company has the right to request a one-year extension of the expiration date on an annual basis, which request may result in changes to the current terms and conditions of the credit agreement. Advances from the credit agreement can be used for general corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and for the refinancing of existing indebtedness. The credit agreement requires the payment of an annual facility fee, the amount of which may increase in the event our credit ratings are lowered. Although a lowering of our credit ratings would likely increase the cost of future debt, it would not limit our ability to use the credit agreement nor would it accelerate the repayment of any outstanding borrowings.

The Company is currently authorized to sell up to $2,500,000 of short-term commercial paper notes. Commercial paper notes outstanding at June 30, 2020 and 2019 were $723,500 and $586,000, respectively. The Company had no outstanding borrowings from foreign banks at June 30, 2020 and had borrowings of $786 at June 30, 2019. The weighted-average interest rate on notes payable during 2020 and 2019 was 2.2 percent and 2.8 percent, respectively.

In the ordinary course of business, our foreign locations may enter into financial guarantees through financial institutions which enable customers to be reimbursed in the event of nonperformance by the Company.

The Company's credit agreements and indentures governing certain debt agreements contain various covenants, the violation of which would limit or preclude the use of the applicable agreements for future borrowings, or might accelerate the maturity of the related outstanding borrowings covered by the applicable agreements. Based on our rating level at June 30, 2020, the most restrictive financial covenant provides that the ratio of debt to debt-shareholders' equity cannot exceed 0.65 to 1.0. As of June 30, 2020, our debt to debt-shareholders' equity ratio was 0.58 to 1.0. We are in compliance with all covenants.
