Commercial Paper Program In first quarter 2019, we established a commercial paper program to provide for short-term funding needs. The program allows for a maximum of $4.0 billion of unsecured commercial paper notes and is supported by Noble Energy’s $4.0 billion Revolving Credit Facility. Our commercial paper notes, which generally have a maturity of less than 30 days, are sold under customary terms in the commercial paper market and notes are either issued at a discounted price relative to the principal face value or bear interest at varying interest rates on a fixed or floating basis. Such discounted prices or interest rates are dependent on market conditions and ratings assigned to the commercial paper program by credit agencies at the time of commercial paper issuance. At June 30, 2019, outstanding commercial paper borrowings totaled $240 million, leaving $3.8 billion available for borrowing under our $4.0 billion Revolving Credit Facility.
Redemption of Senior Notes In June 2019, we redeemed $8 million of Senior Notes due June 1, 2024 that we assumed in the 2015 merger with Rosetta Resources, Inc. for approximately $9 million, including call premium and interest.
