2Includes facility draws and commercial paper issuances that are back-stopped by credit facilities.

In March 2024, we entered into a delayed-draw term loan facility in support of sustainable retrofit projects for large buildings using decarbonization solutions for $200 million which matures in March 2049.

In June 2024, we entered into a five-year, non-revolving term loan facility of US$250 million which matures in June 2029.

In July 2024, we renewed approximately $8.8 billion of our 364-day extendible credit facilities, extending the maturity dates to July 2026, which includes a one-year term out provision from July 2025. We also renewed approximately $7.8 billion of our five-year credit facilities, extending the maturity dates to July 2029. Further, we extended the maturity dates of our three-year credit facilities to July 2027.

In July 2024, Enbridge Gas Inc. (Enbridge Gas Ontario) extended the maturity date of its 364-day extendible credit facility to July 2026, which includes a one-year term out provision from July 2025.

In July 2024, Enbridge Pipelines Inc. extended the maturity date of its 364-day extendible credit facility to July 2026, which includes a one-year term out provision from July 2025.
In addition to the committed credit facilities noted above, we maintain $1.3 billion of uncommitted demand letter of credit facilities, of which $859 million was unutilized as at September 30, 2024. As at December 31, 2023, we had $1.1 billion of uncommitted demand letter of credit facilities, of which $572 million was unutilized.

In October 2024, we increased our letter of credit facilities by $200 million.

Our credit facilities carry a weighted average standby fee of 0.1% per annum on the unused portion and draws bear interest at market rates. Certain credit facilities serve as a back-stop to our commercial paper programs and we have the option to extend such facilities, which are currently scheduled to mature from 2025 to 2049.

As at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, commercial paper and credit facility draws, net of short-term borrowings and non-revolving credit facilities that mature within one year, of $6.8 billion and $3.8 billion, respectively, were supported by the availability of long-term committed credit facilities and, therefore, have been classified as long-term debt.

ACQUISITIONS
As a result of the EOG Acquisition, RNG Facilities Acquisition, Questar Acquisition and PSNC Acquisition, our debt increased by US$1.9 billion, US$568 million, US$1.0 billion, and US$1.1 billion, respectively, on each acquisition date.
