credit facility, which was amended in 2013 and 2012.
In March 2014, the Company’s credit facility was further amended to extend the maturity date to March 2019.
The amount of the aggregate commitment is $3.990 billion (the “2014 credit facility”).

Interest on borrowings outstanding accrues at a rate based on the applicable London Interbank Offered Rate plus a spread.
The 2014 credit facility requires the Company not to exceed a maximum leverage ratio (ratio of net debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, where net debt equals total debt less unrestricted cash) of 3 to 1, which was satisfied with a ratio of less than 1 to 1 at December 31, 2014.
The 2014 credit facility provides back-up liquidity, funds ongoing working capital for general corporate purposes and funds various investment opportunities.
At December 31, 2014, the Company had no amount outstanding under the 2014 credit facility.
