Apart from that discussed below and routine fluctuations in the balance of our revolving credit facility, there have been no significant changes in the terms or amounts of our consolidated debt obligations since those reported in our 2011 Form 10-K.

Issuance of Senior Notes EE.

In February 2012, EPO issued $750.0 million in principal amount of 30-year unsecured Senior Notes EE at 99.542% of their principal amount.  Senior Notes EE have a fixed interest rate of 4.85% and mature on August 15, 2042.  Enterprise guarantees the notes through an unconditional guarantee on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis.  Net proceeds from the issuance of Senior Notes EE were used to repay outstanding amounts on the maturity of our $490.5 million principal amount of Senior Notes S due February 2012 and our $9.5 million principal amount of TEPPCO Senior Notes due February 2012 and for general company purposes.

Senior Notes EE rank equal with EPO's existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.  They are senior to any existing and future subordinated indebtedness of EPO.  Senior Notes EE are subject to make-whole redemption rights and were issued under indentures containing certain covenants, which generally restrict EPO's ability, with certain exceptions, to incur debt secured by liens and engage in sale and leaseback transactions.

Letters of Credit

At March 31, 2012, EPO had $77.5 million in letters of credit outstanding related to its commodity derivative instruments.  These letters of credit do not reduce the amount available for borrowing under EPO's $3.5 Billion Multi-Year Revolving Credit Facility.

Parent-Subsidiary Guarantor Relationships

Enterprise Products Partners L.P. acts as guarantor of the consolidated debt obligations of EPO with the exception of the remaining debt obligations of TEPPCO.  If EPO were to default on any of its guaranteed debt, Enterprise Products Partners L.P. would be responsible for full and unconditional repayment of that obligation.

Covenants

We were in compliance with the financial covenants of our consolidated debt agreements at March 31, 2012.
