The weighted average interest rate at June 30, 2022 was 2.0 percent for both Con Edison and CECONY. At December 31, 2021, Con Edison had $1,488 million of commercial paper outstanding of which $1,361 million was outstanding under CECONY’s program. The weighted average interest rate at December 31, 2021 was 0.3 percent for both Con Edison and CECONY. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, no loans were outstanding under the Companies' December 2016 credit agreement (Credit Agreement). An immaterial amount of letters of credit were outstanding under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. In March 2022, CECONY entered into a 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement (the CECONY Credit Agreement) under which banks are committed to provide loans up to $750 million on a revolving credit basis. The CECONY Credit Agreement expires on March 30, 2023 and supports CECONY’s commercial paper program. Loans issued under the CECONY Credit Agreement may also be used for other general corporate purposes. The banks’ commitments under the CECONY Credit Agreement are subject to certain conditions, including that there be no event of default and that CECONY shall have received the required regulatory approval. The commitments are not subject to maintenance of credit rating levels or the absence of a material adverse change. Upon a change of control of, or upon an event of default by CECONY, the banks may terminate their commitments and declare the loans, accrued interest and any other amounts due by CECONY immediately due and payable. Events of default include CECONY exceeding at any time a ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated total capital of 0.65 to 1; having liens on its assets in an aggregate amount exceeding five percent of its consolidated total capital, subject to certain exceptions; CECONY failing to make one or more payments in respect of material financial obligations (in excess of an aggregate $150 million of debt); cross default to other financial obligations of $150 million or more of CECONY which would permit the holder to accelerate the obligations; and other customary events of default. In June 2022, Con Edison entered into and borrowed $400 million under a 364-Day Senior Unsecured Term Loan Credit Agreement dated June 30,2022 (the June 2022 Term Loan Credit Agreement) under which a bank is committed, until November 30, 2022, to provide to Con Edison one or more tranches of incremental term loans in an aggregate amount not to exceed $200 million, in addition to the $400 million borrowed on June 30, 2022. The bank’s commitments under the agreement are subject to certain conditions, including that there be no event of default. The commitments are not subject to maintenance of credit rating levels or the absence of a material adverse change. Upon a change of control of, or upon an event of default by Con Edison, the bank may terminate its commitments and declare the loans, accrued interest and any other amounts due by Con Edison immediately due and payable. Events of default include Con Edison exceeding at any time a ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated total capital of 0.65 to 1; Con Edison or its subsidiaries having liens on its or their assets in an aggregate amount exceeding 5 percent of Con Edison’s consolidated total capital, subject to certain exceptions; Con Edison or its material subsidiaries failing to make one or more payments in respect of material financial obligations (in excess of an aggregate $150 million of debt or derivative obligations other than non-recourse debt); the occurrence of an event or condition which results in the acceleration of the maturity of any material debt (in excess of an aggregate $150 million of debt other than non-recourse debt) or enables the holders of such debt to accelerate the maturity thereof; and other customary events of default. Subject to certain exceptions, the commitments and any term loans issued under the June 2022 Term Loan Credit Agreement are subject to mandatory termination and prepayment with the net cash proceeds of certain equity issuances or asset sales by Con Edison.
