Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.
Interest Rate Risk
The interest on our borrowings is subject to market risk exposure related to changes in applicable interest rates. Borrowings under our Swedish Credit Facility bear interest at a fixed rate of 2.95%. Borrowings under our ABL Credit Agreement bear interest at an agreed-upon percentage rate spread above LIBOR. Borrowings under the Term Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the option of TETRA, either (i) LIBOR (subject to a 1% floor) plus a margin of 6.25% per annum or (ii) a base rate plus a margin of 5.25% per annum. The following table sets forth as of September 30, 2022, the principal amount due under our long-term debt obligations and their respective weighted average interest rates. We are not a party to an interest rate swap contract or other derivative instrument designed to hedge our exposure to interest rate fluctuation risk.

Exchange Rate Risk
We have currency exchange rate risk exposure related to revenues, expenses, operating receivables, and payables denominated in foreign currencies. We may enter into short-term foreign-currency forward derivative contracts as part of a program designed to mitigate the currency exchange rate risk exposure on selected transactions of certain foreign subsidiaries. Although contracts pursuant to this program will serve as an economic hedge of the cash flow of our currency exchange risk exposure, they are not expected to be formally designated as hedge contracts or qualify for hedge accounting treatment. Accordingly, any change in the fair value of these derivative instruments during a period will be included in the determination of earnings for that period. As of September 30, 2022, we did not have any foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding.
