|  | Amount Outstanding |  |  | Weighted- Average Rate |  |  | Amount Outstanding |  |  | Weighted- Average Rate |

Total short-term borrowings |  | $ | 3,688 |  |  |  |  |  |  | $ | 1,305 |  |  |  |  |
As of March 31, 2015, the commercial paper issued and outstanding had between 1 and 92 days remaining to maturity. Bank loans include borrowings on primarily uncommitted credit lines maintained by some of our international subsidiaries to meet short-term working capital needs. Borrowing Arrangements: We maintain a revolving credit facility for general corporate purposes, including for working capital purposes and to support our commercial paper program. Our $4.5 billion multi-year senior unsecured revolving credit facility expires on October 11, 2018. The revolving credit agreement includes a covenant that we maintain a minimum shareholders’ equity of at least $24.6 billion, excluding accumulated other comprehensive earnings / (losses) and the cumulative effects of any changes in accounting principles. At March 31, 2015, we complied with the covenant as our shareholders’ equity as defined by the covenant was $33.8 billion. The revolving credit facility agreement also contains customary representations, covenants and events of default. There are no credit rating triggers, provisions or other financial covenants that could require us to post collateral as security. As of March 31, 2015, no amounts were drawn on the facility. Some of our international subsidiaries maintain primarily uncommitted credit lines to meet short-term working capital needs. Collectively, these credit lines amounted to $2.0 billion at March 31, 2015 and $2.1 billion at December 31, 2014. Borrowings on these lines amounted to $223 million at March 31, 2015 and $204 million at December 31, 2014. Long-Term Debt: On March 30, 2015, we issued fr.675 million of Swiss franc-denominated notes, or approximately $694 million in U.S. dollars as of March 31, 2015, consisting of:
| • |  | fr.175 million (or $180 million) of 0.000% fixed rate notes that mature on March 30, 2017
| • |  | fr.300 million (or $308 million) of 0.625% fixed rate notes that mature on December 30, 2021
| • |  | fr.200 million (or $206 million) of 1.125% fixed rate notes that mature on December 30, 2025
We received net proceeds of $675 million that were used for general corporate purposes. We recorded approximately $2 million of premiums and deferred financing costs, which will be amortized into interest expense over the life of the notes. On March 20, 2015, €850 million of our 6.250% euro-denominated notes matured. The notes and accrued interest to date were paid with the issuance of commercial paper and cash on hand. On March 20, 2015, we completed a cash tender offer and retired $2.5 billion of our long-term U.S. dollar debt consisting of:
| • |  | $102 million of our 6.500% Notes due in August 2017
| • |  | $115 million of our 6.125% Notes due in February 2018
| • |  | $80 million of our 6.125% Notes due in August 2018
| • |  | $691 million of our 5.375% Notes due in February 2020
| • |  | $201 million of our 6.500% Notes due in November 2031
| • |  | $26 million of our 7.000% Notes due in August 2037
| • |  | $71 million of our 6.875% Notes due in February 2038
| • |  | $69 million of our 6.875% Notes due in January 2039
| • |  | $1,143 million of our 6.500% Notes due in February 2040
We financed the repurchase of these notes, including the payment of accrued interest and other costs incurred, from net proceeds received from the $2.8 billion notes issuance on March 6, 2015 described below and the issuance of commercial paper. In connection with retiring this debt, during the first three months of 2015, we recorded a $708 million loss on extinguishment of debt within interest expense related to the amount we paid to retire the debt in excess of its carrying value and from recognizing unamortized discounts and deferred financing costs in earnings at the time of the debt extinguishment. The loss on extinguishment is included in long-term debt repayments in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2015. We also recognized $5 million of charges within interest expense from hedging instruments related to the retired debt. Upon extinguishing the debt, the deferred cash flow hedge amounts were recorded in earnings. On March 6, 2015, we issued €2.0 billion of euro-denominated notes and £450 million of British pound sterling-denominated notes, or approximately $2.8 billion in U.S. dollars as of March 31, 2015, consisting of:
| • |  | €500 million (or $537 million) of 1.000% fixed rate notes that mature on March 7, 2022
| • |  | €750 million (or $805 million) of 1.625% fixed rate notes that mature on March 8, 2027
| • |  | €750 million (or $805 million) of 2.375% fixed rate notes that mature on March 6, 2035
| • |  | £450 million (or $667 million) of 3.875% fixed rate notes that mature on March 6, 2045
We received net proceeds of $2,890 million that were used to fund the March 2015 tender offer and for other general corporate purposes. We recorded approximately $29 million of discounts and deferred financing costs, which will be amortized into interest expense over the life of the notes. Our weighted-average interest rate on our total debt was 3.1% as of March 31, 2015, following the completion of our tender offer and debt issuances in the first quarter. Our weighted-average interest rate on our total debt as of December 31, 2014 was 4.3%, down from 4.8% as of December 31, 2013. Fair Value of Our Debt: The fair value of our short-term borrowings at March 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014 reflects current market interest rates and approximates the amounts we have recorded on our consolidated balance sheet. The fair value of our long-term debt was determined using quoted prices in active markets (Level 1 valuation data) for the publicly traded debt obligations. At March 31, 2015, the aggregate fair value of our total debt was $19,986 million and its carrying value was $18,705 million. At December 31, 2014, the aggregate fair value of our total debt was $18,463 million and its carrying value was $16,700 million. Interest and Other Expense, Net: Interest and other expense, net within our results of continuing operations consisted of:
