Interest Rate Derivatives
In first quarter 2022, CSX entered into five separate fixed-to-floating interest rate swaps classified as fair value hedges. The swaps are designed to hedge 10 years of interest rate risk associated with market fluctuations attributable to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate on a cumulative $800 million of fixed rate outstanding notes which are due between 2036 and 2040. As of June 30, 2022, the fair value of these swaps was a $72 million liability, which is included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The associated cumulative adjustment to the hedged notes is included in long-term debt. Gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps offset changes in the fair value of the hedged portion of the underlying debt so no gain or loss has been recognized due to hedge ineffectiveness. Differences on the fixed-to-floating legs of the derivatives are recognized in interest expense and were not material in second quarter or six months ended 2022. The swaps will expire in 2032. If settled early, the remaining liability or asset will be amortized over the remaining life of the associated notes. The amounts recorded in long-term debt on the consolidated balance sheet related to these fair value hedges is summarized in the table below.

Carrying Amount of Hedged Notes$728 

In 2020, the Company executed forward starting interest rate swaps, classified as cash flow hedges, with aggregate notional value of $500 million. These swaps were effected to hedge the benchmark interest rate associated with future interest payments related to the anticipated refinancing of $850 million of 3.25% notes due in 2027. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the asset value of the forward starting interest rate swaps was $162 million and $91 million, respectively, and was recorded in other long-term assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Unrealized gains or losses associated with changes in the fair value of the hedge are recorded net of tax in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) on the consolidated balance sheet. Unless settled early, the swaps will expire in 2027 and the unrealized gain or loss in AOCI will be recognized in earnings as an adjustment to interest expense over the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Unrealized amounts, recorded net of tax in other comprehensive income, related to the hedge were a gain of $33 million and a loss of $35 million for second quarters ended 2022 and 2021 and gains of $54 million and $21 million for the six months 2022 and 2021, respectively.
NOTE 7.    Debt and Credit Agreements, continued

Credit Facility
    CSX has a $1.2 billion unsecured, revolving credit facility backed by a diverse syndicate of banks. This facility allows same-day borrowings at floating interest rates, based on LIBOR or an agreed-upon replacement reference rate, plus a spread that depends upon CSX's senior unsecured debt ratings. This facility expires in March 2024, and at June 30, 2022, the Company had no outstanding balances under this facility.

    Commitment fees and interest rates payable under the facility were similar to fees and rates available to comparably rated investment-grade borrowers. As of second quarter 2022, CSX was in compliance with all covenant requirements under this facility.

Commercial Paper
    Under its commercial paper program, which is backed by the revolving credit facility, the Company may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion outstanding at any one time. Proceeds from issuances of the notes are expected to be used for general corporate purposes. At June 30, 2022, the Company had no outstanding debt under the commercial paper program.
