Unsecured Debt

At May 31, 2017, our short-term borrowings included euro-denominated commercial paper of $670 million.

In January 2017, we borrowed $100 million under a floating rate bank loan, due in January 2022.

In January 2017, we entered into an approximately $800 million export credit facility, which may be drawn in euros or U.S. dollars in 2021 and will be due in semi-annual installments through 2033. The interest rate on this export credit facility can be fixed or floating, at our discretion.

In April 2017, we entered into two euro-denominated export credit facilities totaling $1.6 billion. The facilities are expected to be drawn in 2021 and 2022 and will be due in semi-annual installments through 2033 and 2034, respectively. The interest rate on these export credit facilities can be fixed or floating, at our discretion.

In May 2017, we repaid $620 million of export credit facilities prior to their 2025 and 2026 maturity dates.

In May 2017, we borrowed $367 million under an export credit facility. The facility is due in semi-annual installments through April 2028.

For the six months ended May 31, 2017, we had borrowings of $111 million and repayments of $364 million of commercial paper with original maturities greater than three months.

We use the net proceeds from our borrowings for general corporate purposes and purchases of new ships.
