BORROWINGS AND LINES OF CREDIT

(dollars in millions)	2021		2020
Commercial paper	$	—	$	160
Other borrowings	134		87
Total short-term borrowings	$	134	$	247

As of December 31, 2021, our maximum commercial paper borrowing limit was $5.0 billion as the commercial paper is backed by our $5.0 billion revolving credit agreement. We use our commercial paper borrowings for general corporate purposes, including the funding of potential acquisitions, pension contributions, debt refinancing, dividend payments and repurchases of our common stock. The commercial paper notes have original maturities of not more than 90 days from the date of issuance. Interest rates on our commercial paper borrowings are considered variable due to their short-term duration and high-frequency of turnover.

As of December 31, 2021, we had revolving credit agreements with various banks permitting aggregate borrowings of up to $7.0 billion, consisting of a $5.0 billion revolving credit agreement, which matures in April 2025, and a $2.0 billion revolving credit agreement, which we renewed in May 2021 and expires in May 2022. As of December 31, 2021, there were no borrowings outstanding under these agreements. In addition, at December 31, 2021, approximately $0.9 billion was available under short-term lines of credit with local banks at our various domestic and international subsidiaries.

On November 17, 2021, we completed a cash tender offer for the notes included in the repayments table below (the Tender Offer Notes), resulting in a partial repayment of approximately $1.5 billion of aggregate principal on these notes. In connection with this transaction, we recorded debt extinguishment costs of $617 million, primarily related to premiums.

We had the following issuances of long-term debt during 2021:

Issuance Date	Description of Notes	Aggregate Principal Balance (in millions)
November 16, 2021	2.375% notes due 2032 (1)	$	1,000
	3.030% notes due 2052 (1)	1,100
August 10, 2021	1.900% notes due 2031 (2)	1,000
	2.820% notes due 2051 (2)	1,000

(1)    The net proceeds received from these debt issuances were used to fund the purchase of the Tender Offer Notes.

(2)    The net proceeds received from these debt issuances, along with cash on hand, were used to fund the repayment of our 2.800% and 2.500% notes due 2022.
