Brookfield Infrastructure has entered into a $1 billion revolving credit facility with Brookfield to provide additional liquidity for general corporate purposes and capital expenditures, if required. The revolving credit facility automatically renews for eight consecutive one-year terms, which would result in the facility ultimately maturing in February 2027. Brookfield has the option to terminate the agreement prior to April 14 each year by providing Brookfield Infrastructure with a written notice. Loans under this facility accrued interest on LIBOR plus 1.8% and no commitment fees were incurred for any undrawn balance. As of December 31, 2022, there were no (2021: $nil) borrowings outstanding.
On November 14, 2022, Brookfield Infrastructure Finance ULC issued C$700 million of medium-term notes in two tranches: C$450 million maturing on November 14, 2027 with a coupon of 5.616% per annum and C$250 million maturing on February 14, 2033 with a coupon of 5.980% per annum, and $2 million of debt issuance costs were incurred.
On April 25, 2022, Brookfield Infrastructure Finance ULC issued C$600 million of medium-term notes in two tranches: C$400 million maturing on April 25, 2034 with a coupon of 5.439% per annum and C$200 million maturing on April 25, 2052 with a coupon of 5.789% per annum, and $3 million of debt issuance costs were incurred.
On May 24, 2021, Brookfield Infrastructure Finance ULC issued $250 million of subordinated notes maturing May 24, 2081, with a coupon of 5.0% and $6 million of debt issuance costs were incurred.
On February 24, 2021, Brookfield Infrastructure established a U.S. commercial paper program under which a subsidiary of our partnership may issue unsecured commercial paper notes up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $500 million. Proceeds from the commercial paper issuances are supplemented by our corporate credit facilities. As of December 31, 2022, there were $464 million of borrowings outstanding (2021: $431 million).
The increase in corporate borrowings of $947 million during the year ended December 31, 2022 is primarily attributable to the issuance of approximately $960 million of medium-term notes and net draws on our corporate credit facility of $96 million. These increases were partially offset by the impact of foreign exchange.
(b)Non-Recourse Borrowings
The current and non-current balances of non-recourse borrowings are as follows:
US$ MILLIONS20222021
Current$2,567 $2,701 
Non-current24,000 23,833 
Total$26,567 $26,534 
Non-recourse borrowings increased by $33 million from December 31, 2021 due to $2.5 billion of incremental borrowings, partially offset by the derecognition of $0.6 billion of borrowings associated with the sale of five Brazilian electricity transmission concessions, $0.4 billion of borrowings classified as classified as held for sale, and the impact of foreign exchange.
Principal repayments on non-recourse borrowings due over the next five years and thereafter are as follows:
