The below discussion of the Company’s indebtedness should be read in conjunction with the Note 7 – Debt and Bank Credit Facilities in the Company’s 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 24, 2023.

Credit Agreement
On March 28, 2022, the Company entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Administrative Agent and the lenders named therein, which was subsequently amended on November 17, 2022 (the "First Amendment") and November 30, 2022 (the "Assumption Agreement"), which in combination provide for, among other things:

i.an unsecured term loan facility in the initial principal amount of up to $550.0 million, maturing on March 28, 2027, which was upsized by $840.0 million on March 27, 2023 in connection with the Altra Transaction (the "Term Facility");
ii.an unsecured term loan facility in the initial principal amount of $486.8 million, under which the Company's subsidiary Land Newco, Inc. remains the sole borrower, maturing on March 28, 2027 (the "Land Term Facility"); and
iii.an unsecured revolving loan in the initial principal amount of up to $1,000.0 million, maturing on March 28, 2027, which was upsized by $570.0 million on March 27, 2023 in connection with the Altra Transaction (the "Multicurrency Revolving Facility").

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at floating rates based upon indices determined by the currency of the borrowing (SOFR or an alternative base rate for US Dollar borrowings) or at an alternative base rate, in each case, plus an applicable margin. The weighted average interest rate on the Term Facility for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 was 7.2% and 3.4%, respectively. The weighted average interest rate on the Term Facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 was 6.9% and 2.2%, respectively. The weighted average interest rate on the Land Term Facility for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 was 7.2% and 3.5%, respectively. The weighted average interest rate on the Land Term Facility for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 was 6.7% and 2.3%, respectively.

The Term Facility requires quarterly amortization at 5.0% per annum, unless previously prepaid. Per the terms of the Credit Agreement, prepayments can be made without penalty and be applied to the next payment due. The Land Term Facility has no required amortization.
As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no standby letters of credit issued under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility, and $1,553.5 million of available borrowing capacity. For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility, the average daily balance in borrowings was $123.9 million and $600.5 million, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate was 7.2% and 3.5%, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility, the average daily balance in borrowings was $320.0 million and $719.0 million, respectively, and the weighted average interest rate was 6.6% and 2.2%, respectively. The Company paid a non-use fee of 0.25% as of September 30, 2023 on the aggregate unused amount of the Multicurrency Revolving Facility at a rate determined by reference to its consolidated funded debt to consolidated EBITDA ratio.
Private Placement Notes

On April 7, 2022, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement for the issuance and sale of $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.90% senior notes due April 7, 2032 (the "Private Placement Notes"). Following the issuance of the Senior Notes discussed below, on January 27, 2023, the Company repaid the Private Placement Notes in full with no make-whole payments.
Bridge Facility

In connection with the Altra Transaction, on October 26, 2022, the Company entered into a commitment letter pursuant to which JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. committed to provide the Company approximately $5,500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior bridge loans under a 364-day senior unsecured bridge term loan facility (the “Bridge Facility”) to, among other things, fund, in part, the Altra Transaction. The Bridge Facility was terminated upon issuance of the Senior Notes in January 2023. The Company paid $27.5 million in Bridge Facility fees in fiscal 2022, of which $10.5 million were recognized in Interest Expense in the fourth quarter of 2022 and zero and $17.0 million were recognized in Interest Expense during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

Senior Notes

On January 24, 2023, the Company issued $1,100.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.05% senior notes due 2026 (the “2026 Senior Notes”), $1,250.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.05% senior notes due 2028 (the “2028 Senior Notes”), $1,100.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.30% senior notes due 2030 (the “2030 Senior Notes”) and $1,250.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.40% senior notes due 2033 (the “2033 Senior Notes” and, together with the 2026 Senior Notes, 2028 Senior Notes and 2030 Senior Notes, collectively, the “Senior Notes”). The 2026 Senior Notes are scheduled to mature on February 15, 2026, the 2028 Senior Notes are scheduled to mature on April 15, 2028, the 2030 Senior Notes are scheduled to mature on February 15, 2030, and the 2033 Senior Notes are scheduled to mature on April 15, 2033.

The rate of interest on each series of the Senior Notes is subject to an increase of up to 2.00% in the event of certain downgrades in the debt rating of the Senior Notes. Interest on the 2026 Senior Notes and the 2030 Senior Notes will be payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on August 15, 2023. Interest on the 2028 Senior Notes and the 2033 Senior Notes will be payable semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on April 15, 2023.

The Senior Notes were issued and sold in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 and persons outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. Pursuant to a registration rights agreement, the Company will exchange the Senior Notes with registered notes with terms substantially identical to the Senior Notes within 540 days from the date of issuance.

The Company received $4,647.0 million in net proceeds from the sale of the Senior Notes, after deducting the initial purchasers’ discounts and estimated offering expenses. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds to repay the Company’s outstanding Private Placement Notes and used the remaining net proceeds, together with the incremental term loan commitments under the Term Facility and cash on hand, to fund the consideration for the Altra Transaction, repay certain of Altra’s outstanding indebtedness, and pay certain fees and expenses.

Prior to the consummation of the Altra Transaction, the Company used a portion of the proceeds to repay the outstanding borrowings under the Multicurrency Revolving Facility in January 2023 and invested the remaining net proceeds of approximately $3.6 billion in interest bearing accounts. The Company recognized zero and $29.4 million in Interest Income during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively.

Altra Notes
On March 27, 2023, in connection with the Altra Transaction, the Company assumed $18.1 million aggregate principal amount of 6.125% senior notes due 2026 (the “Altra Notes”). The Company purchased 95.28% of the outstanding Altra Notes for total consideration of $382.7 million. See Note 3 – Held for Sale, Acquisitions and Divestitures for more information.

The Altra Notes will mature on October 1, 2026. The Altra Notes may be redeemed at the option of the issuer on or after October 1, 2023. The Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of the Company's domestic subsidiaries.
Compliance with Financial Covenants
The Credit Agreement, Senior Notes, and Altra Notes require the Company to meet specified financial ratios and to satisfy certain financial condition tests. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants as of September 30, 2023.
Other Notes Payable

These amounts consist of finance leases as well as certain long-term fixed rate term loans entered into by subsidiaries in Europe that are generally secured by the local property, plant and equipment. The weighted average interest rate on other notes payable for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 were 4.9% and 5.1%, respectively. The weighted average interest rate on other notes payable for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 were 4.9% and 5.1%, respectively.

Other Disclosures

Based on rates for instruments with comparable maturities and credit quality, which are classified as Level 2 inputs (see also Note 14 - Fair Value), the approximate fair value of the Senior Notes is $4,564.4 million compared to a carrying value of $4,700.0 million as of September 30, 2023. The Company believes that the fair value of all other debt instruments approximates their carrying value.
