(a) In third quarter 2021, finance lease obligations and debt were assumed related to the Company's acquisition of Quality Carriers on July 1, 2021. See Note 12, Business Combinations. Interest Rate Derivatives On both April 29, 2020, and July 9, 2020, the Company executed a forward starting interest rate swap with a notional value of $250 million for an aggregate notional value of $500 million. These swaps were effected to hedge the benchmark interest rate associated with future interest payments related to the anticipated refinancing of $850 million of 3.25% notes due in 2027. In accordance with the Derivatives and Hedging Topic in the ASC, the Company has designated these swaps as cash flow hedges. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the asset value of the forward starting interest rate swaps was $116 million and $80 million, respectively, and was recorded in other long-term assets on the consolidated balance sheet. Unrealized gains or losses associated with changes in the fair value of the hedge are recorded net of tax in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) on the consolidated balance sheet. Unless settled early, the swaps will expire in 2027 and the unrealized gain or loss in AOCI will be recognized in earnings as an adjustment to interest expense over the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Unrealized amounts, recorded net of tax in other comprehensive income, related to the hedge were gains of $7 million and $25 million for third quarters ended 2021 and 2020 and gains of $28 million and $34 million for the nine months 2021 and 2020, respectively. Credit Facility CSX has a $1.2 billion unsecured, revolving credit facility backed by a diverse syndicate of banks. This facility allows same-day borrowings at floating interest rates, based on LIBOR or an agreed-upon replacement reference rate, plus a spread that depends upon CSX's senior unsecured debt ratings. This facility expires in March 2024, and at September 30, 2021, the Company had no outstanding balances under this facility. Commitment fees and interest rates payable under the facility were similar to fees and rates available to comparably rated investment-grade borrowers. As of third quarter 2021, CSX was in compliance with all covenant requirements under this facility. NOTE 7. Debt and Credit Agreements, continued Commercial Paper Under its commercial paper program, which is backed by the revolving credit facility, the Company may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion outstanding at any one time. Proceeds from issuances of the notes are expected to be used for general corporate purposes. At September 30, 2021, the Company had no outstanding debt under the commercial paper program.
