At September 29, 2024, future principal payments were $1.4 billion in fiscal 2025, $2.0 billion in fiscal 2027, $1.0 billion in fiscal 2028 and $10.6 billion after fiscal 2029; no principal payments are due in fiscal 2026 or fiscal 2029. At September 29, 2024, the aggregate fair value of the notes, based on Level 2 inputs, was approximately $14.3 billion.
At September 29, 2024, all of our outstanding long-term debt is comprised of unsecured fixed-rate notes. We may redeem the outstanding fixed-rate notes at any time in whole, or from time to time in part, at specified make-whole premiums as defined in the applicable form of note. The obligations under the notes rank equally in right of payment with all of our other senior unsecured indebtedness and will effectively rank junior to all liabilities of our subsidiaries.
The effective interest rates for the notes include the interest on the notes, amortization of the discount, which includes debt issuance costs, and if applicable, adjustments related to hedging. Interest is payable in arrears semi-annually for the notes. Cash interest paid related to our commercial paper program and long-term debt was $656 million, $614 million and $491 million during fiscal 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Interest Rate Swaps. At September 29, 2024 and September 24, 2023, we had outstanding interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $2.1 billion that are designated as fair value hedges and allow us to effectively convert fixed-rate payments into floating-rate payments on a portion of our outstanding long-term debt.
Commercial Paper Program. We have an unsecured commercial paper program, which provides for the issuance of up to $4.5 billion. Net proceeds from this program are for general corporate purposes. Maturities of commercial paper can range from 1 to up to 397 days. At September 29, 2024 and September 24, 2023, we had no amounts of commercial paper outstanding.
Revolving Credit Facility. On August 8, 2024, we entered into a Revolving Credit Facility, replacing our prior Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for unsecured revolving facility loans, swing line loans and letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $4.0 billion, which expires on August 8, 2029. At September 29, 2024, no amounts were outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Facility at the time of termination and September 24, 2023.
Debt Covenants. The Revolving Credit Facility requires that we comply with certain covenants, including that we maintain an interest coverage ratio as defined in the agreement. We are not subject to any financial covenants under the notes nor any covenants that would prohibit us from incurring additional indebtedness ranking equal to the notes, paying dividends or issuing securities or repurchasing securities issued by us or our subsidiaries. At September 29, 2024, we were in compliance with the applicable covenants under the Revolving Credit Facility.
