Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest [Text Block] | REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS Certain redeemable noncontrolling interests in the Partnership’s subsidiaries are reflected as mezzanine equity on the consolidated balance sheets. Redeemable noncontrolling interests as of March 31, 2021 included a balance of $477 million related to the USAC Preferred Units described below and a balance of $15 million related to noncontrolling interest holders in one of the Partnership’s consolidated subsidiaries that have the option to sell their interests to the Partnership. In addition, redeemable noncontrolling interests includes a balance of $277 million related to Energy Transfer Canada preferred shares. USAC Preferred Units As of March 31, 2021, USAC had 500,000 USAC Preferred Units issued and outstanding. The USAC Preferred Units are entitled to receive cumulative quarterly distributions equal to $24.375 per USAC Preferred Unit, subject to increase in certain limited circumstances. The USAC Preferred Units will have a perpetual term, unless converted or redeemed. Certain portions of the USAC Preferred Units will be convertible into USAC common units at the election of the holders beginning in 2021. To the extent the holders of the USAC Preferred Units have not elected to convert their preferred units by the fifth anniversary of the issue date, USAC will have the option to redeem all or any portion of the USAC Preferred Units for cash. In addition, at any time on or after the tenth anniversary of the issue date, the holders of the USAC Preferred Units will have the right to require USAC to redeem all or any portion of the USAC Preferred Units, and the Partnership may elect to pay up to 50% of such redemption amount in USAC common units. Energy Transfer Canada Redeemable Preferred Stock Energy Transfer Canada has 300,000 shares of cumulative preferred stock issued and outstanding. The preferred stock is redeemable at Energy Transfer Canada’s option at a redemption price of C$1,100 (US$875 at the March 31, 2021 exchange rate) per share. The preferred stock is redeemable by the holder contingent upon a change of control or liquidation of Energy Transfer Canada. The preferred stock is convertible to Energy Transfer Canada common shares in the event of an initial public offering by Energy Transfer Canada. Dividends on the preferred stock are payable in-kind through the quarter ending June 30, 2021. The dividends paid-in-kind increased the liquidation preference such that, as of March 31, 2021, the preferred stock was convertible into 351,954 shares.
