Senior Unsecured Notes

In October 2021, in preparation for our Spin-off, we completed the offering of $2.4 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured fixed-rate notes as follows: $700 million aggregate principal amount of 2.05% Senior Notes due 2026, $500 million aggregate principal amount of 2.70% Senior Notes due 2028, $650 million aggregate principal amount of 3.15% Senior Notes due 2031 and $550 million aggregate principal amount of 4.10% Senior Notes due 2041 (the “Initial Notes”). The Initial Notes were offered and sold to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S of the Securities Act. In connection with the issuance of the Initial Notes, we entered into a registration rights agreement with the

purchasers of the Initial Notes, pursuant to which we completed a registered offering to exchange each series of Initial Notes for new notes with substantially identical terms during the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

In February 2024, we completed a registered offering of $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.35% senior unsecured notes due 2034 (the “2034 Notes”). We received proceeds of $494 million, net of debt issuance costs and discounts. The 2034 Notes are the Company’s senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s other existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. If measured at fair value in the consolidated financial statements, all of the Company’s senior unsecured notes would be classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

The Initial Notes and the 2034 Notes are subject to customary affirmative covenants, negative covenants and events of default for financings of this type and are redeemable at our option in a customary manner.

We have outstanding $700 million of fixed-rate notes that mature in October 2026. We intend to refinance these notes at a future date, subject to market conditions.

Revolving Credit Agreement

In October 2021, we entered into a $3.15 billion multi-currency revolving credit agreement (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”), which expires, unless extended, in October 2026. The Revolving Credit Agreement was amended in June 2023, replacing the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). In March 2025, we further amended the agreement, extending the maturity to March 2030. Interest rates on borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement will be based on prevailing market interest rates, plus a margin, as further described in the Revolving Credit Agreement.

The total facility fees recorded by the Company for the Revolving Credit Agreement were $5 million and $5 million for the years ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. In February 2026, the Company borrowed $1 billion under the Revolving Credit Agreement, bearing an interest rate of 4.97%. The borrowing matures in August 2026 and may be refinanced utilizing the facility. The Company had approximately $2.2 billion of additional borrowing capacity remaining at March 31, 2026. Proceeds are intended to be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes, which may include repayment of indebtedness and acquisitions.

The Revolving Credit Agreement includes certain customary mandatory prepayment provisions. In addition, it includes customary events of default and affirmative and negative covenants as well as a maintenance covenant that will require that the ratio of our indebtedness for borrowed money to consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) for any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters be no greater than 3.50 to 1.00. The Company is in compliance with its debt covenants.
