VISA INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS—(Continued)
September 30, 2009
(in millions, except as noted)
(1) At September 30, 2009, the put option is exercisable at any time at the sole discretion of Visa Europe with payment required 285 days thereafter. As
such, the put option liability is included in accrued liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2009. As the put option did not become
exercisable until March 2009, it was classified as long-term at September 30, 2008. Classification in current liabilities is not an indication of
management's expectation of exercise and simply reflects the fact that the obligation resulting from the exercise of the instrument could become payable
within 12 months.
Note 10—Debt

for similar notes.
5.60% Senior Secured Notes-Series B
In December 2002, Visa U.S.A. issued $68 million in series B senior secured notes with a maturity date of ten years. The note is collateralized by the
Company's Colorado facility, which consists of two data centers and an office building, in addition to processing assets and developed software.
7.53% Medium-Term Notes
Visa International established a medium-term note program in 1992 to offer up to $250 million of unsecured private placement notes. At September 30,
2009, the Company had no outstanding obligations under these notes and terminated this private placement program.
