16. SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION

Debt

As of 31 March 2014, we have classified $400.0 of commercial paper and a 3.875% Eurobond for €300.0 million ($413) maturing in March 2015 as long-term debt because we have the ability to refinance the debt under our $2,500.0 committed credit facility maturing 30 April 2018 on a long-term basis. Our current intent is to refinance this debt via the U.S. or European public or private placement markets.

Share Repurchase Program

On 15 September 2011, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $1,000 of our outstanding common stock. We repurchase shares pursuant to Rules 10b5-1 and 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, through repurchase agreements established with several brokers. During fiscal year 2013, we purchased 5.7 million of our outstanding shares at a cost of $461.6. There were no purchases during the first six months of fiscal year 2014. At 31 March 2014, $485.3 in share repurchase authorization remains.
