Note 11      Borrowing Facilities and DebtRevolving Credit FacilitiesIn February 2020, Applied entered into a five-year $1.5 billion committed unsecured revolving credit agreement (Revolving Credit Agreement) with a group of banks. The Revolving Credit Agreement includes a provision under which Applied may request an increase in the amount of the facility of up to $500 million for a total commitment of no more than $2.0 billion, subject to the receipt of commitments from one or more lenders for any such increase and other customary conditions. The Revolving Credit Agreement is scheduled to expire in February 2025, unless extended as permitted under the Revolving Credit Agreement. The Revolving Credit Agreement provides for borrowings that bear interest for each advance at one of two rates selected by Applied, plus an applicable margin, which varies according to Applied’s public debt credit ratings. No amounts were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement as of October 31, 2021 and October 25, 2020. In addition, Applied has revolving credit facilities with Japanese banks pursuant to which it may borrow up to approximately $70 million in aggregate at any time. Applied’s ability to borrow under these facilities is subject to bank approval at the time of the borrowing request, and any advances will be at rates indexed to the banks’ prime reference rate denominated in Japanese yen. As of October 31, 2021 and October 25, 2020, no amounts were outstanding under these revolving credit facilities.
