The answer is: Obligation that has a distant due date exceeding company's operating cycle.

Explanation:

A current liability is a financial obligation due within one year (or one normal operation cycle).

So a financial obligation that has a due date that exceeds a company's operating cycle should have been directly classified as a long term liability (or a non current liability) in the first place. It simply is not a current liability that is changed into a long term liability, it always was a long term liability.

The other options represent the steps necessary for turning a current liability into a long term liability.

Intend to refinance the obligation on a long-term basis. Demonstrate the ability to complete the refinancing. Subsequently refinance the obligation on a long-term basis.
