the ADT acquisition.
In March 2014, the Company entered into a nine-month, $150 million, floating rate term loan scheduled to mature in
December 2014. Proceeds from the term loan were used for general corporate purposes. The loan was repaid during the
quarter ended June 30, 2014.
In March 2014, the Company retired $450 million in principal amount, plus accrued interest, of its 1.75% fixed rate notes
that matured March 2014.
In February 2014, the Company retired $350 million in principal amount, plus accrued interest, of its floating rate notes
that matured February 2014.
In January 2014, the Company entered into a one-year, $150 million, floating rate term loan scheduled to mature in January

September 2014.
In November 2013 and December 2013, a $35 million and $100 million committed revolving credit facility expired,
respectively. The Company entered into a new $35 million committed revolving credit facility scheduled to expire in
November 2014 and a new $100 million committed revolving credit facility scheduled to expire in December 2014. As of
September 30, 2014, there were no draws on either facility.

The Company also selectively makes use of short-term credit lines. The Company estimates that, as of September 30,
2014, it could borrow up to $1.8 billion on committed credit lines.
The Company believes its capital resources and liquidity position at September 30, 2014 are adequate to meet projected
needs. The Company believes requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, dividends, stock repurchases,
minimum pension contributions, debt maturities and any potential acquisitions in fiscal 2015 will continue to be funded
from operations, supplemented by short- and long-term borrowings, if required. The Company currently manages its short-
term debt position in the U.S. and euro commercial paper markets and bank loan markets. In the event the Company is
unable to issue commercial paper, it would have the ability to draw on its $2.5 billion revolving credit facility, which
matures in August 2018. There were no draws on the revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2014. As such, the
Company believes it has sufficient financial resources to fund operations and meet its obligations for the foreseeable future.
The Company earns a significant amount of its operating income outside the U.S., which is deemed to be permanently
reinvested in foreign jurisdictions. The Company currently does not intend nor foresee a need to repatriate these funds.
The Company’s intent is for such earnings to be reinvested by the subsidiaries or to be repatriated only when it would be
tax effective through the utilization of foreign tax credits. The Company expects existing domestic cash and liquidity to
continue to be sufficient to fund the Company’s domestic operating activities and cash commitments for investing and
