The Company’s earnings are affected by changes in interest rates. The Company utilized interest rate swaps to reduce the
impact of fluctuations in interest rates on its unsecured commercial paper by converting a portion from a floating rate basis to a
fixed rate basis. The interest rate swaps expired during the second quarter of 2013, and as of December 31, 2013, there were no
interest rate swaps outstanding.
