(i)The senior notes due October 1, 2026 are classified as long-term debt as we have the intent and ability to refinance them on a long-term basis.
On June 8, 2026, we entered into a 364-day bridge loan agreement (the “Bridge Loan Agreement”), under which lenders committed to provide us with a 364-day senior unsecured bridge term loan facility in the amount of $4,225 million (the “Bridge Facility”), subsequently reduced to $2,750 million by the term loan facility we entered into on June 24, 2026, described below, to support financing the pending acquisition of Tate & Lyle, described in Note 2, Acquisitions and Divestitures. Proceeds of borrowings under the Bridge Facility will be available to fund payment of the cash consideration for the pending acquisition, refinancing, repayment and discharge of certain outstanding indebtedness of Tate & Lyle and its subsidiaries, and payment of fees and other costs and expenses of the pending acquisition of Tate & Lyle. Commitments under the Bridge Loan Agreement will automatically terminate on February 2, 2028, subject to extension in specified circumstances no later than August 3, 2028. Loans will bear interest at variable rates based on a specified base rate or a specified Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus an applicable margin. The Bridge Loan Agreement contains customary representations, covenants and events of default substantially similar to those under our revolving credit facility agreement. No amounts were outstanding under the Bridge Facility as of June 30, 2026.
On June 24, 2026, we entered into a delayed draw term loan agreement (the “DDTL Agreement”), under which lenders have committed to provide us with a senior unsecured delayed draw term loan facility with an initial committed borrowing availability of $1,475 million (the “DDTL Facility”), which reduced commitments under the Bridge Facility by a corresponding amount. Proceeds of borrowings under the DDTL Facility will be available for the same uses related to the pending acquisition of Tate & Lyle as proceeds of borrowings under the Bridge Facility. Commitments under the DDTL Agreement will automatically terminate on February 2, 2028, subject to extension in specified circumstances no later than August 3, 2028. Loans will bear interest at variable rates based on a base rate or a specified SOFR plus an applicable margin. If borrowings are made under the DDTL Facility, up to $500 million of loans will mature three years following the funding date and up to $975 million of loans will mature five years following the funding date. The DDTL Agreement contains customary representations, covenants and events of default substantially similar to those under the Bridge Facility and our revolving credit facility agreement. No amounts were outstanding under the DDTL Facility as of June 30, 2026.
Other short-term borrowings as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 primarily include amounts outstanding under various unsecured local country operating lines of credit.
