On February 24, 2020, Enbridge Inc. entered into a two year, non-revolving credit facility for US$1.0 billion with a syndicate of lenders.

On February 25, 2020, Enbridge Inc. entered into two, one year, non-revolving, bilateral credit facilities for a total of US$500 million.

On March 31, 2020, Enbridge Inc. entered into a one year, revolving, syndicated credit facility for $1.7 billion. On April 9, 2020, Enbridge Inc. exercised an accordion provision and increased the facility to $3.0 billion.

On July 23 and 24, 2020, we extended approximately $10.0 billion of our 364 day extendible credit facilities to July 2022, inclusive of a one-year term out provision.
In addition to the committed credit facilities noted above, we maintain $861 million of uncommitted demand credit facilities, of which $524 million were unutilized as at September 30, 2020. As at December 31, 2019, we had $916 million of uncommitted credit facilities, of which $476 million were unutilized.

Our credit facilities carry a weighted average standby fee of 0.3% per annum on the unused portion and draws bear interest at market rates. Certain credit facilities serve as a back-stop to the commercial paper programs and we have the option to extend such facilities, which are currently scheduled to mature from 2021 to 2024.

As at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, commercial paper and credit facility draws, net of short-term borrowings and non-revolving credit facilities that mature within one year, of $8.7 billion and $9.0 billion, respectively, were supported by the availability of long-term committed credit facilities and therefore have been classified as long-term debt.
