Note 6. Short-term Borrowings and Long-term Debt
Short-term borrowings consist of commercial paper and lines of credit. Short-term borrowings outstanding at January 31, 2017 and 2016 were $1.1 billion and $2.7 billion, respectively, with weighted-average interest rates of 6.2% and 2.3%, respectively.
The Company has various committed lines of credit, committed with 23 financial institutions, totaling $12.5 billion and $15.0 billion as of January 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. The committed lines of credit are summarized in the following table:

In June 2016, the Company renewed and extended its existing five-year credit facility and its existing 364-day revolving credit facility, both of which are used to support its commercial paper program.
The committed lines of credit mature at various times between May 2017 and June 2021, carry interest rates generally ranging between LIBOR plus 10 basis points and LIBOR plus 75 basis points, and incur commitment fees ranging between 1.5 and 4.0 basis points. In conjunction with the lines of credit listed in the table above, the Company has agreed to observe certain covenants, the most restrictive of which relates to the maximum amount of secured debt.
Apart from the committed lines of credit, the Company has trade and stand-by letters of credit totaling $3.6 billion and $4.5 billion at January 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. These letters of credit are utilized in normal business activities.
The Company's long-term debt, which includes the fair value instruments further discussed in Note 8, consists of the following:

The average rate represents the weighted-average stated rate for each corresponding debt category, based on year-end balances and year-end interest rates. Interest costs are also impacted by certain derivative financial instruments described in Note 8.
(2)
A portion of other debt at January 31, 2017 and 2016 includes secured debt in the amount of $14 million and $13 million, respectively, which was collateralized by property that had an aggregate carrying amount of approximately $82 million and $131 million, respectively.
At January 31, 2017 and 2016, the Company had $500 million in debt with embedded put options. The issuance of money market puttable reset securities in the amount of $500 million is structured to be remarketed in connection with the annual reset of the interest rate. If, for any reason, the remarketing of the notes does not occur at the time of any interest rate reset, the holders of the notes must sell and the Company must repurchase the notes at par. Accordingly, this issuance has been classified as long-term debt due within one year in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Annual maturities of long-term debt during the next five years and thereafter are as follows:
