Lines of Credit
At September 30, 2011, we maintained a credit facility with a consortium of banks, providing borrowing capacity of up to $2.0 billion. This facility expires on December 9, 2013. We have the ability to classify borrowings under this facility as long-term. The credit facility provides support for up to $1.5 billion of commercial paper issuances, as well as back-up liquidity in the event that any of our convertible notes are put back to us. At September 30, 2011, there were no commercial paper issuances or borrowings outstanding under the facility.
At September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had various uncommitted lines of credit aggregating $1,031.5 million and $610.4 million, respectively.
Our available and unused lines of credit at September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 were (dollars in millions):

On October 12, 2011, we amended our credit facility to increase the borrowing capacity to $2.5 billion and to extend the term to October 12, 2016. There were no changes to the financial covenants in the credit facility.
Short-Term Borrowings
Short-term borrowings of $16.4 million at September 30, 2011 are primarily comprised of bank overdrafts and credit lines of our international subsidiaries. The bank overdrafts and credit lines are treated as unsecured loans pursuant to the bank agreements supporting the facilities.

In August 2010, we entered into a series of interest rate swap agreements to hedge the risk of changes in fair value of the $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of our 5.90% Senior Notes due April 15, 2016 (“2016 Notes”) attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate. Under the terms of the swaps, we received fixed interest rate payments and paid a variable interest rate on the total principal amount of the 2016 Notes. The swaps effectively converted the 2016 Notes from fixed rate debt to floating rate debt. The swaps qualified as a hedge for accounting purposes and were designated as a fair value hedge on the 2016 Notes. The swaps were recorded in our balance sheet at fair value and the change in the fair value of the swaps and the change in the fair value of the 2016 Notes (the hedged item) were recorded in earnings as an adjustment to interest expense.
On August 18, 2011, we terminated and settled the swaps and received a payment of $38.8 million that included accrued interest from the counterparties. On termination of the swaps, we discontinued hedge accounting and recorded a deferred gain of $33.2 million as an increase in the carrying value of 2016 Notes. The deferred gain is being amortized through the maturity of the 2016 Notes as a reduction of interest expense.
At December 31, 2010, we recorded a liability of $24.2 million, representing the fair value of the swaps, and we recorded a decrease in the carrying value of the 2016 Notes of $26.3 million, reflecting the change in fair value of the 2016 Notes from the inception of the fair value hedge.
