Secured Receivables Credit Facility
    
In October 2015, the Company amended and restated the agreement for the $525 million secured receivables credit facility (the “Secured Receivables Credit Facility”) entered into in December 2014, increasing the borrowing capacity under the facility to $600 million. The amended and restated Secured Receivables Credit Facility matures in October 2017. Under the Secured Receivables Credit Facility, the Company can issue letters of credit totaling $100 million (see Note 17). Issued letters of credit reduce the available borrowing capacity under the facility. Borrowings under the Secured Receivables Credit Facility are collateralized by certain domestic receivables. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, interest on the borrowings under the Secured Receivables Credit Facility is based on commercial paper rates for highly-rated issuers plus 0.66%. As of both December 31, 2016 and 2015, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Secured Receivables Credit Facility.
    
Senior Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility

In April 2014, the Company amended and restated the agreement for the $750 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Facility” or "Senior Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility") entered into in September 2011. The amended and restated Credit Facility matures in April 2019. Under the Credit Facility, the Company can issue letters of credit totaling $150 million (see Note 17). Issued letters of credit reduce the available borrowing capacity under the facility. Interest on the Credit Facility is based on certain published rates plus an applicable margin that will vary over a range from 75 basis points to 163 basis points based on changes in the Company's public debt ratings. At the option of the Company, it may elect to lock into LIBOR-based interest rates for periods up to six months. Interest on any outstanding amounts not covered under LIBOR-based interest rate contracts is based on an alternate base rate, which is calculated by reference to the prime rate, the federal funds rate or an adjusted LIBOR rate. As of both December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company's borrowing rate for LIBOR-based loans under the Credit Facility was LIBOR plus 1.125%. The Credit Facility contains various covenants, including the maintenance of certain financial ratios, which could impact the Company's ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness. As of both December 31, 2016 and 2015, there were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Facility.

Senior Notes Offerings

In May 2016, the Company completed a $500 million senior notes offering (the "2016 Senior Notes"). The offering consisted of $500 million in aggregate principal of 3.45% senior notes due June 2026, issued at a discount of $1 million. The Company incurred $4 million of costs associated with the 2016 Senior Notes, which is included as a reduction to the carrying amount of long-term debt and is being amortized over the term of the related debt. The net proceeds from the 2016 Senior Notes were used to repay outstanding indebtedness under the senior unsecured revolving credit facility and the secured receivables credit facility and for general corporate purposes.    

In March 2015, the Company completed a $1.2 billion senior notes offering (the “2015 Senior Notes”) that was sold in three tranches: (a) $300 million aggregate principal amount of 2.50% senior notes due March 2020, issued at a discount of $1 million; (b) $600 million aggregate principal amount of 3.50% senior notes due March 2025; and (c) $300 million aggregate principal amount of 4.70% senior notes due March 2045. The Company incurred $11 million of costs associated with the 2015 Senior Notes, which is included as a reduction to the carrying amount of long-term debt and is being amortized over the term of the related debt.

All of the senior notes are unsecured obligations of the Company and rank equally with the Company's other senior unsecured obligations. None of the Company's senior notes have a sinking fund requirement.     

Retirement of Debt

In March 2016, the Company completed a cash tender offer to purchase up to $200 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.95% Senior Notes due July 2037 ("Senior Notes due 2037") and 5.75% Senior Notes due January 2040 ("Senior Notes due 2040"). The Company purchased $73 million of its Senior Notes due 2037 and $127 million of its Senior Notes due 2040.    

In March 2015, the Company completed a cash tender offer to purchase up to $250 million aggregate principal amount of its Senior Notes due 2037 and Senior Notes due 2040 using a portion of the proceeds from the 2015 Senior Notes. The Company purchased $176 million of its Senior Notes due 2037 and $74 million of its Senior Notes due 2040. In April 2015, the Company redeemed all of its 5.45% Senior Notes due November 2015, $150 million of its 3.20% Senior Notes due April 2016 and all of its 6.40% Senior Notes due July 2017 with the remaining proceeds from the 2015 Senior Notes.

For the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, the Company recorded losses on retirement of debt, principally comprised of premiums paid, of $48 million and $144 million, respectively, in other (expense) income, net.
