Borrowings Under Credit Facilities and Commercial Paper Program

Borrowings Under Credit Facilities and Commercial Paper Program 

At March 31, 2025, we had a primary unsecured credit facility with a consortium of 29 banks that included a $5,000,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility, a $1,000,000,000 unsecured term credit facility and a $250,000,000 Canadian-denominated unsecured term credit facility. The unsecured revolving credit facility is comprised of a $2,000,000,000 tranche that matures on July 24, 2029 (none outstanding at March 31, 2025) and a $3,000,000,000 tranche that matures on July 24, 2028 (none outstanding at March 31, 2025). The term credit facilities mature on July 19, 2026. The $3,000,000,000 tranche of the revolving facility and term loans may be extended for two successive terms of six months at our option. We have an option, through an accordion feature, to upsize the $5,000,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility and the $1,000,000,000 unsecured term credit facility by up to an additional $1,250,000,000, in the aggregate, and the $250,000,000 Canadian-denominated unsecured term credit facility by up to an additional $250,000,000. The primary unsecured credit facility also allows us to borrow up to $1,000,000,000 in alternate currencies (none outstanding at March 31, 2025). Borrowings under the unsecured revolving credit facility are subject to interest payable at the applicable margin over the secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR") interest rate. Based on our current credit ratings, the loans under the unsecured revolving credit facility currently bear interest at 0.725% over the adjusted SOFR rate at March 31, 2025. In addition, we pay a facility fee quarterly to each bank based on the bank’s commitment amount. The facility fee depends on our debt ratings and was 0.125% at March 31, 2025. 

Under the terms of our commercial paper program, we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes with maturities that vary, but do not exceed 397 days from the date of issue, up to a maximum aggregate face or principal amount outstanding at any time of $2,000,000,000 (none outstanding at March 31, 2025).

There was no activity related to the primary unsecured credit facility or the commercial paper program for the quarters ended March 31, 2025 or 2024, respectively.
