(1) Interest rates are weighted average interest rates primarily related to various foreign credit facilities with customary terms and conditions. (2) Includes non-cash financing additions of $22 million a nd $14 million during the six month period ended June 30, 2022 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, respectively. NOTES At June 30, 2022, we ha d $5,551 mi llion o f outstanding notes, compared to $5,591 million at December 31, 2021. CREDIT FACILITIES $2.75 billion Amended and Restated First Lien Revolving Credit Facility due 2026 Our amended and restated first lien revolving credit facility is available in the form of loans or letters of credit. Up to $800 million in letters of credit and $50 million of swingline loans are available for issuance under the facility. Subject to the consent of the lenders whose commitments are to be increased, we may request that the facility be increased by up to $250 million. Our obligations under the facility are guaranteed by most of our wholly-owned U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries. Our obligations under the facility and our subsidiaries' obligations under the related guarantees are secured by first priority security interests in a variety of collateral. Based on our current liquidity, amounts drawn under this facility bear interest at LIBOR plus 125 basis points. Availability under the facility is subject to a borrowing base, which is based on (i) eligible accounts receivable and inventory of The Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company and certain of its U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries, (ii) the value of our principal trademarks in an amount not to exceed $400 million, (iii) the value of eligible machinery and equipment, and (iv) certain cash in an amount not to exceed $275 million. To the extent that our eligible accounts receivable, inventory and other components of the borrowing base decline in value, our borrowing base will decrease and the availability under the facility may decrease below $2.75 billion. As of June 30, 2022, our borrowing base, and therefore our availability, under this facility was $108 million below the facility's stated amount of $2.75 billion. The facility has customary representations and warranties including, as a condition to borrowing, that all such representations and warranties are true and correct, in all material respects, on the date of the borrowing, including representations as to no material adverse change in our business or financial condition since December 31, 2020. The facility also has customary defaults, including a cross-default to material indebtedness of Goodyear and our subsidiaries. If Available Cash (as defined in the facility) plus the availability under the facility is greater than $750 million, amounts drawn under the facility will bear interest, at our option, at (i) 125 basis points over LIBOR or (ii) 25 basis points over an alternative base rate (the higher of (a) the prime rate, (b) the federal funds effective rate or the overnight bank funding rate plus 50 basis points or (c) LIBOR plus 100 basis points). If Available Cash plus the availability under the facility is equal to or less than $750 million, then amounts drawn under the facility will bear interest, at our option, at (i) 150 basis points over LIBOR or (ii) 50 basis points over an alternative base rate. Undrawn amounts under the facility will be subject to an annual commitment fee of 25 basis points. At June 30, 2022, we had $570 million of borrowings and $3 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility. At December 31, 2021, we had no borrowings and $19 million of letters of credit issued under the revolving credit facility. €800 million Amended and Restated Senior Secured European Revolving Credit Facility due 2024 Our amended and restated European revolving credit facility consists of (i) a €180 million German tranche that is available only to Goodyear Germany GmbH and (ii) a €620 million all-borrower tranche that is available to Goodyear Europe B.V. ("GEBV"), Goodyear Germany and Goodyear Operations S.A. Up to €175 million of swingline loans and €75 million in letters of credit are available for issuance under the all-borrower tranche. Amounts drawn under this facility will bear interest at LIBOR plus 150 basis points for loans denominated in U.S. dollars, EURIBOR plus 150 basis points for loans denominated in euros, and SONIA plus 150 basis points for loans denominated in pounds sterling. Undrawn amounts under the facility are subject to an annual commitment fee of 25 basis points. GEBV and certain of its subsidiaries in the United Kingdom, Luxembourg, France and Germany provide guarantees to support the facility. The German guarantors secure the German tranche on a first-lien basis and the all-borrower tranche on a second-lien basis. GEBV and its other subsidiaries that provide guarantees secure the all-borrower tranche on a first-lien basis and generally do not provide collateral support for the German tranche. The Company and its U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries that guarantee our U.S. first lien revolving credit facility described above also provide unsecured guarantees in support of the facility. The facility has customary representations and warranties including, as a condition to borrowing, that all such representations and warranties are true and correct, in all material respects, on the date of the borrowing, including representations as to no material adverse change in our business or financial condition since December 31, 2018. The facility also has customary defaults, including a cross-default to material indebtedness of Goodyear and our subsidiaries. At June 30, 2022, there were no borrowings outstanding under the German tranche, $310 million (€298 million) of borrowings outstanding under the all-borrower tranche and no letters of credit outstanding under the European revolving credit facility. At December 31, 2021, we had no borrowings and no letters of credit outstanding under the European revolving credit facility. Accounts Receivable Securitization Facilities (On-Balance Sheet) GEBV and certain other of our European subsidiaries are parties to a pan-European accounts receivable securitization facility that expires in 2027. The terms of the facility provide the flexibility to designate annually the maximum amount of funding available under the facility in an amount of not less than €30 million and not more than €450 million. For the period from October 19, 2021 through October 19, 2022, the designated maximum amount of the facility is €300 million. The facility involves an ongoing daily sale of substantially all of the trade accounts receivable of certain GEBV subsidiaries. These subsidiaries retain servicing responsibilities. Utilization under this facility is based on eligible receivable balances. The funding commitments under the facility will expire upon the earliest to occur of: (a) October 19, 2027, (b) the non-renewal and expiration (without substitution) of all of the back-up liquidity commitments, (c) the early termination of the facility according to its terms (generally upon an Early Amortisation Event (as defined in the facility), which includes, among other things, events similar to the events of default under our first lien revolving credit facility; certain tax law changes; or certain changes to law, regulation or accounting standards), or (d) our request for early termination of the facility. The facility’s current back-up liquidity commitments will expire on October 19, 2022. At June 30, 2022, the amounts available and utilized under this program totaled $246 million (€237 million). At December 31, 2021, the amounts available and utilized under this program totaled $279 million (€246 million). The program does not qualify for sale accounting, and accordingly, these amounts are included in Long Term Debt and Finance Leases. For a description of the collateral securing the credit facilities described above as well as the covenants applicable to them, refer to Note to the Consolidated Financial Statements No. 16, Financing Arrangements and Derivative Financial Instruments, in our 2021 Form 10-K. Accounts Receivable Factoring Facilities (Off-Balance Sheet) We have sold certain of our trade receivables under off-balance sheet programs. For these programs, we have concluded that there is generally no risk of loss to us from non-payment of the sold receivables. At June 30, 2022, the gross amount of receivables sold was $597 million, compared to $605 million at December 31, 2021. Other Foreign Credit Facilities A Mexican subsidiary and a U.S. subsidiary have a revolving credit facility in Mexico. At June 30, 2022, the amounts available and utilized under this facility were $200 million. At December 31, 2021, the amounts available and utilized under this facility were $200 million and $158 million, respectively. The facility ultimately matures on November 22, 2024, has covenants relating to the Mexican and U.S. subsidiary, and has customary representations and warranties and defaults relating to the Mexican and U.S. subsidiary’s ability to perform its respective obligations un der the facility. A Chinese subsidiary has several financing arrangements in China. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the amounts available under these facilities were $812 million and $958 million, respectively. At June 30, 2022, the amount utilized under these facilities was $358 million, of which $64 million represented notes payable and $294 million represented long term debt. At June 30, 2022, $154 million of the long term debt was due within one year. At December 31, 2021, the amount utilized under these facilities was $365 million, of which $32 million represented notes payable and $333 million represented long term debt. At December 31, 2021, $124 million of the long term debt was due within one year. The facilities contain covenants relating to the Chinese subsidiary and have customary representations and warranties and defaults relating to the Chinese subsidiary’s ability to perform its obligations under the facilities. Certain of the facilities can only be used to finance the expansion of one of our manufacturing facilities in China and, at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the unused amounts available under these facilities were $86 million and $81 million, respectively. Following the Cooper Tire acquisition, three of Cooper Tire's Chinese credit facilities remain outstanding. At June 30, 2022, the amounts available and utilized under these facilities were $45 million and $7 million, respectively. At December 31, 2021, the amounts available and utilized under these facilities were $75 million and $5 million, respectively. DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS We utilize derivative financial instrument contracts and nonderivative instruments to manage interest rate, foreign exchange and commodity price risks. We have established a control environment that includes policies and procedures for risk assessment and the approval, reporting and monitoring of derivative financial instrument activities. We do not hold or issue derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Foreign Currency Contracts We enter into foreign currency contracts in order to manage the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on our consolidated results of operations and future foreign currency-denominated cash flows. These contracts may be used to reduce exposure to currency movements affecting existing foreign currency-denominated assets, liabilities, firm commitments and forecasted transactions resulting primarily from trade purchases and sales, equipment acquisitions, intercompany loans and royalty agreements. Contracts hedging short term trade receivables and payables normally have no hedging designation. The following table presents the fair values for foreign currency hedge contracts that do not meet the criteria to be accounted for as cash flow hedging instruments:
|  | June 30, |  |  | December 31, |
(In millions) |  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |
Fair Values — Current asset (liability): |  |  |  |  |  |
Accounts receivable |  | $ | 27 |  |  | $ | 9 |
Other current liabilities |  |  | (2 | ) |  |  | (4 | )
At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, these outstanding foreign currency derivatives had notional amounts of $1,228 million and $993 million, respectively, and were primarily related to intercompany loans. Other (Income) Expense included net transaction gains on derivatives of $24 million and $34 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Other (Income) Expense included net transaction losses on derivatives of $14 million and net transaction gains on derivatives of $41 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. These amounts were substantially offset in Other (Income) Expense by the effect of changing exchange rates on the underlying currency exposures. The following table presents fair values for foreign currency hedge contracts that meet the criteria to be accounted for as cash flow hedging instruments:
|  | June 30, |  |  | December 31, |
(In millions) |  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |
Fair Values — Current asset (liability): |  |  |  |  |  |
Accounts receivable |  | $ | 2 |  |  | $ | 1 |
Other current liabilities |  |  | (1 | ) |  |  | (1 | )
At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, these outstanding foreign currency derivatives had notional amounts of $70 million and $63 million, respectively, and primarily related to U.S. dollar denominated intercompany transactions. Based on our current forecasts, we believe that it is probable that the underlying hedge transactions will occur within an appropriate time frame in order to continue to qualify for cash flow hedge accounting treatment. We enter into master netting agreements with counterparties. The amounts eligible for offset under the master netting agreements are not material and we have elected a gross presentation of foreign currency contracts in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The following table presents the classification of changes in fair values of foreign currency contracts that meet the criteria to be accounted for as cash flow hedging instruments (before tax and minority):
|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Six Months Ended |
|  | June 30, |  |  | June 30, |
(In millions) |  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |  |  | 2022 |  |  | 2021 |
Amount of gains (losses) deferred to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss ("AOCL") |  | $ | 3 |  |  | $ | (1 | ) |  | $ | 1 |  |  | $ | — |
Reclassification adjustment for amounts recognized in CGS |  |  | — |  |  |  | — |  |  |  | (1 | ) |  |  | (2 | )
The estimated net amount of deferred gains at June 30, 2022 that are expected to be reclassified to earnings within the next twelve months is $2 million. The counterparties to our foreign currency contracts were considered by us to be substantial and creditworthy financial institutions that were recognized market makers at the time we entered into those contracts. We seek to control our credit exposure to these counterparties by diversifying across multiple counterparties, by setting counterparty credit limits based on long term credit ratings and other indicators of counterparty credit risk such as credit default swap spreads, and by monitoring the financial strength of these counterparties on a regular basis. We also enter into master netting agreements with counterparties when possible. By controlling and monitoring exposure to counterparties in this manner, we believe that we effectively manage the risk of loss due to nonperformance by a counterparty. However, the inability of a counterparty to fulfill its contractual obligations to us could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial position or results of operations in the period in which it occurs.
