References to “TEPPCO” mean TEPPCO Partners, L.P. prior to its merger with one of our wholly owned subsidiaries in October 2009. The following table presents the range of interest rates and weighted-average interest rates paid on our consolidated variable-rate debt during the year ended December 31, 2019:

Commercial Paper Notes | 1.79% to 2.80% | 2.61%
EPO Junior Subordinated Notes C and TEPPCO Junior Subordinated Notes | 4.68% to 5.52% | 5.22%
Amounts borrowed under our 364-Day and Multi-Year Revolving Credit Agreements bear interest, at our election, equal to: (i) LIBOR, plus an additional variable spread; or (ii) an alternate base rate, which is the greater of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 0.5%, or (c) the LIBO Market Index Rate in effect on such day plus 1% and a variable spread. The applicable spreads are determined based on our debt ratings. The following table presents the scheduled contractual maturities of principal amounts of our consolidated debt obligations at December 31, 2019 for the next five years, and in total thereafter:

Parent-Subsidiary Guarantor Relationships EPD 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, EPD would be responsible for full and unconditional repayment of that obligation. EPO Debt Obligations Commercial Paper Notes EPO maintains a commercial paper program under which it may issue (and have outstanding at any time) up to $3.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of short-term notes. As a back-stop to the program, we intend to maintain a minimum available borrowing capacity under EPO’s Multi-Year Revolving Credit Agreement equal to the aggregate amount outstanding under our commercial paper notes. All commercial paper notes issued under the program are senior unsecured obligations of EPO that are unconditionally guaranteed by EPD. 364-Day Credit Agreement In September 2019, EPO entered into a new 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement that replaced its prior 364-day credit facility. The new 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement matures in September 2020. There are currently no principal amounts outstanding under this revolving credit agreement. Under the terms of the new 364-Day Revolving 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 up to 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 non-revolving term loans for a period of one additional year, payable in September 2021. Borrowings under this revolving credit agreement may be used for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general company purposes. The new 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants (affirmative and negative) and events of default, the occurrence of which would permit the lenders to accelerate the maturity date of any amounts borrowed under this credit agreement. The credit agreement also restricts EPO’s ability to pay cash distributions to its parent, EPD, if an event of default (as defined in the credit agreement) has occurred and is continuing at the time such distribution is scheduled to be paid or would result therefrom. EPO’s obligations under the new 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement are not secured by any collateral; however, they are guaranteed by EPD. Multi-Year Revolving Credit Agreement In September 2019, EPO entered into an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to its revolving credit agreement dated September 13, 2017 (the “Multi-Year Revolving Credit Agreement”). The First Amendment reduces the borrowing capacity under the Multi-Year Revolving Credit Agreement from $4.0 billion to $3.5 billion (which may be increased by up to $500 million to $4.0 billion at EPO’s election provided certain conditions are met) and extends the maturity date to September 10, 2024, although the maturity date may be extended further at EPO’s request by up to two years, with the consent of required lenders as set forth under the credit agreement. Borrowings under this revolving credit agreement may be used for working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and general company purposes. The Multi-Year Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants (affirmative and negative) and events of default, the occurrence of which would permit the lenders to accelerate the maturity date of any amounts borrowed under this credit agreement. The Multi-Year Revolving Credit Agreement also restricts EPO’s ability to pay cash distributions to its parent, EPD, if an event of default (as defined in the credit agreement) has occurred and is continuing at the time such distribution is scheduled to be paid or would result therefrom. EPO’s obligations under the Multi-Year Revolving Credit Agreement are not secured by any collateral; however, they are guaranteed by EPD. Senior Notes EPO’s fixed-rate senior notes are unsecured obligations of EPO that rank equal with its existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness. They are senior to any existing and future subordinated indebtedness of EPO. EPO’s senior notes are subject to make-whole redemption rights and were issued under indentures containing certain covenants, which generally restrict its ability (with certain exceptions) to incur debt secured by liens and engage in sale and leaseback transactions. In total, EPO issued $2.5 billion and $5.0 billion of senior notes during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. In July 2019, EPO issued $2.5 billion aggregate principal amount of senior notes comprised of $1.25 billion principal amount of senior notes due July 2029 (“Senior Notes YY”) and $1.25 billion principal amount of senior notes due January 2050 (“Senior Notes ZZ”). Net proceeds from this offering were used by EPO for the repayment of debt and for general company purposes, including for growth capital expenditures. Senior Notes YY were issued at 99.955% of their principal amount and have a fixed interest rate of 3.125% per year. Senior Notes ZZ were issued at 99.792% of their principal amount and have a fixed interest rate of 4.20% per year. EPD has guaranteed these senior notes through an unconditional guarantee on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis. See Note 22, Subsequent Events, for information regarding the issuance of Senior Notes AAA, BBB and CCC in January 2020. EPO Junior Subordinated Notes EPO’s payment obligations under its junior notes are subordinated to all of its current and future senior indebtedness (as defined in the related indenture agreement). EPD guarantees repayment of amounts due under these junior notes through an unsecured and subordinated guarantee. The indenture agreement governing these notes allows EPO to defer interest payments on one or more occasions for up to ten consecutive years subject to certain conditions. Subject to certain exceptions, during any period in which interest payments are deferred, neither we nor EPO can declare or make any distributions on any of our respective equity securities or make any payments on indebtedness or other obligations that rank equal with or are subordinate to our junior notes. Each series of our junior notes rank equal with each other. Generally, each series of junior notes are not redeemable by EPO while such notes bear interest at a fixed annual rate. In total, EPO issued $700.0 million and $1.7 billion of junior notes during the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively. In connection with the issuance of EPO’s Junior Subordinated Notes C, EPO entered into a Replacement Capital Covenant in favor of covered debt holders (as defined in the underlying documents) pursuant to which EPO agreed, for the benefit of such debt holders, that it would not redeem or repurchase such junior notes unless such redemption or repurchase is made using proceeds from the issuance of certain securities. During the second quarter of 2019, EPO repurchased and retired $24.2 million in principal amount of its Junior Subordinated Notes C. A $1.5 million gain on the extinguishment of these debt obligations is included in “Other, net” on our Statements of Consolidated Operations with respect to the year ended December 31, 2019. Letters of Credit At December 31, 2019, EPO had $101.4 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 December 31, 2019.
