At December 31, 2015, we reclassified $149.8 million of bond issuance costs, which were previously accounted for as assets on our consolidated balance sheet, to long-term debt in connection with the adoption of ASU 2015-03 (see Note 1). These amounts are a component of “Other, non-principal amounts” in the preceding table.

The following table presents contractually scheduled maturities of our consolidated debt obligations outstanding at September 30, 2016 for the next five years, and in total thereafter:

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.

Issuance of $1.25 Billion of Senior Notes in April 2016
In April 2016, EPO issued $575 million in principal amount of 2.85% senior notes due April 2021 (“Senior Notes RR”), $575 million in principal amount of 3.95% senior notes due February 2027 (“Senior Notes SS”) and $100 million in principal amount of 4.90% reopened senior notes due May 2046 (“Senior Notes QQ”).  Senior Notes RR, SS and QQ were issued at 99.898%, 99.760% and 95.516% of their principal amounts, respectively. We issued these senior notes using our 2013 Shelf (see Note 8).

Net proceeds from the issuance of these senior notes were used as follows: (i) the repayment of amounts then outstanding under EPO’s commercial paper program, which included amounts we used to repay $750 million in principal amount of Senior Notes AA that matured in February 2016, and (ii) for general company purposes.

Enterprise Products Partners L.P. has unconditionally guaranteed these senior notes on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis.  These senior notes rank equal with EPO’s existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness and are senior to any existing and future subordinated indebtedness of EPO.  These senior notes are subject to make-whole redemption rights and were issued under an indenture 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.

364-Day Credit Agreement
In September 2016, EPO amended its 364-Day Credit Agreement to extend its maturity date to September 2017.  There are currently no principal amounts outstanding under this revolving credit agreement.  Under the terms of the 364-Day Credit Agreement, EPO may borrow up to $1.5 billion (which may be increased by up to $200 million to $1.7 billion at EPO’s election, provided certain conditions are met) at a variable interest rate for a term of 364 days, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein.  To the extent that principal amounts are outstanding at the maturity date, EPO may elect to have the entire principal balance then outstanding continued as a non-revolving term loan for a period of one additional year, payable in September 2018.  The remaining terms of the 364-Day Credit Agreement, as amended, remain materially the same as those reported for the 364-Day Credit Agreement in our 2015 Form 10-K.

Letters of Credit
At September 30, 2016, EPO had $67.7 million of letters of credit outstanding primarily related to our commodity hedging activities.

Lender Financial Covenants
We were in compliance with the financial covenants of our consolidated debt agreements at September 30, 2016.
