Financing Arrangements Financing Arrangements
We had total debt outstanding of approximately $2.5 billion and $2.0 billion at December 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Short-term borrowings at December 31, 2022, consisted primarily of commercial paper borrowings and amounts outstanding under various unsecured local country operating lines of credit.
On December 16, 2022, we entered into a new two-year, senior, unsecured $200 million term loan, which bears interest, payable quarterly in arrears, at a variable annual rate based on an adjusted daily Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus a margin of 1.10 percent per annum. The term loan will mature and all principal thereunder will be payable on December 16, 2024. The term loan agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants that, among other matters, specify customary reporting obligations, and that, subject to exceptions, restrict the incurrence of additional indebtedness by our subsidiaries, the incurrence of liens and the consummation of certain mergers, consolidations and sales of assets. We are subject to compliance, as of the end of each quarter, with a maximum leverage ratio of 3.5 to 1.0 and a minimum ratio of consolidated EBITDA to consolidated net interest expense of 3.5 to 1.0, with each financial covenant calculated for the most recently completed four-quarter period. We were in compliance with all of our debt covenants as of December 31, 2022.
On November 30, 2022, we amended our existing revolving credit agreement. The amendment changed the applicable interest rate calculation under our revolving credit facility to either a specified SOFR plus an applicable margin, or a base rate (generally determined according to the highest of the prime rate, the federal funds rate or the specified SOFR plus 1.00 percent) plus an applicable margin. The revolving credit agreement previously referenced London Interbank Offering Rate ("LIBOR") instead of SOFR for applicable interest calculations under the facility. As of December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, borrowings of $— and $—, respectively, were outstanding under the $1 billion facility.
On July 27, 2021, we established a commercial paper program under which we may issue senior unsecured notes of short maturities up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $1 billion outstanding at any time. The notes may be sold from time to time on customary terms in the U.S. commercial paper market. We use the note proceeds for general corporate purposes. From the inception of the program until December 31, 2021, the average amount of commercial paper outstanding was $670 million with an average interest rate of 0.27 percent and a weighted average maturity of 48 days. As of December 31, 2021, $250 million of commercial paper was outstanding with an average interest rate of 0.35 percent and a weighted average maturity of 48 days. During 2022, the average amount of commercial paper outstanding was $522 million with an average interest rate of 1.97 percent and a weighted average maturity of 16 days. As of December 31, 2022, $390 million of commercial paper was outstanding with an average interest rate of 4.75 percent and a weighted average maturity of 7 days. The amount of commercial paper outstanding under this program in 2023 is expected to fluctuate.
