(1) | We classified these PAA commercial paper notes and credit facility borrowings as short-term as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, as these notes and borrowings were primarily designated as working capital borrowings, were required to be repaid within one year and were primarily for hedged NGL and crude oil inventory and NYMEX and ICE margin deposits.
(2) | As of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, balance includes borrowings of $12 million and $410 million, respectively, for cash margin deposits with NYMEX and ICE, which are associated with financial derivatives used for hedging purposes.
(3) | As of June 30, 2017, we have classified PAA's $600 million, 6.50% senior notes due May 2018 as long-term and as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we have classified a portion of PAA's commercial paper notes as long-term based on our ability and intent to refinance such amounts on a long-term basis.
(4) | PAA’s fixed-rate senior notes (including current maturities) had a face value of approximately $9.9 billion and $10.3 billion as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. We estimated the aggregate fair value of these notes as of June 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 to be approximately $10.1 billion and $10.4 billion, respectively. PAA’s fixed-rate senior notes are traded among institutions, and these trades are routinely published by a reporting service. Our determination of fair value is based on reported trading activity near the end of the reporting period. We estimate that the carrying value of outstanding borrowings under the credit facilities and the PAA commercial paper program approximates fair value as interest rates reflect current market rates. The fair value estimates for the PAA senior notes, the credit facilities and the PAA commercial paper program are based upon observable market data and are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
