The revolving credit facilities are bifurcated into two $2.75 billion tranches, which initially mature on April 29, 2029 and July 10, 2030 respectively, before giving effect to two six-month extension options for each facility. Pursuant to the terms of the revolving credit facilities, the Company's current A3 / A- credit ratings provide for a borrowing rate of 67.5 basis points over SOFR for U.S. Dollar borrowings, with a facility commitment fee of 12.5 basis points, for all-in drawn pricing of 80 basis points over SOFR, a reduction of 5.0 basis points from the prior revolving credit facilities.
