We have certain fixed contractual obligations and commitments that include future estimated payments for general operating purposes.
Changes in our business needs, contractual cancellation provisions, fluctuating interest rates, and other factors may result in actual payments
differing from the estimates. We cannot provide certainty regarding the timing and amounts of these payments. The following table summarizes
our fixed contractual obligations and commitments:
The significant assumptions used in our determination of amounts presented in the above table are as follows:
As we are unable to reasonably predict the timing of settlement of liabilities related to unrecognized tax benefits, net, the table does not
include $369 million of such non-current liabilities included in deferred and other tax liabilities recorded on our consolidated balance sheet as of
December 31, 2013 .
Liquidity and Capital Resource Requirements
At December 31, 2013 , we had assets classified as cash and cash equivalents, as well as short and long-term non-
equity investments, in an
aggregate amount of $12.8 billion , compared to $11.5 billion at December 31, 2012 . At December 31, 2013 , this amount included assets held
in certain of our foreign operations totaling approximately $9.7 billion . If these assets were distributed to the U.S., we may be subject to
additional U.S. taxes in certain circumstances. We actively monitor all counterparties that hold these assets, primarily focusing on the safety of
principal and secondarily improving yield on these assets. We diversify our cash and cash equivalents and investments among various
counterparties in order to reduce our exposure should any one of these counterparties fail or encounter difficulties. To date, we have not
experienced any material loss or lack of access to our invested cash, cash equivalents or short-term investments; however, we can provide no
assurances that access to our invested cash, cash equivalents or short-term investments will not be impacted by adverse conditions in the
financial markets. At any point in time we have funds in our operating accounts and customer accounts that are deposited with third party
financial institutions.
To the extent that our Bill Me Later products become more widely available through improved and more comprehensive product
integrations with eBay, PayPal and other channels, and as
we further promote Bill Me Later products, we expect customer adoption and usage of
Bill Me Later products to expand. Any resulting growth in the portfolio of Bill Me Later loan receivables would increase our liquidity needs and
any failure to meet those liquidity needs could adversely affect the Bill Me Later business. We currently fund the expansion of the Bill Me Later
portfolio of loan receivables with borrowings and domestic and international cash resources.

• Debt and capital lease amounts include the principal and interest amounts of the respective debt instruments and the present value of
capital lease payments. For additional details related to our debt, please see “Note 10 – Debt” to the consolidated financial statements
included in this report. This table does not reflect any amounts payable under our $3 billion revolving credit facility or $2 billion
commercial paper program, for which no borrowings were outstanding as of December 31, 2013.
• Lease amounts include minimum rental payments under our non-cancelable operating leases for office facilities, fulfillment centers,
as well as computer and office equipment that we utilize under lease arrangements. The amounts presented are consistent with
contractual terms and are not expected to differ significantly from actual results under our existing leases, unless a substantial change
in our headcount needs requires us to expand our occupied space or exit an office facility early.
• Purchase obligation amounts include minimum purchase commitments for advertising, capital expenditures (computer equipment,
software applications, engineering development services, construction contracts) and other goods and services entered into in the
ordinary course of business.
