Peer comment(s):

agree Giovanni Rengifo : I can't think of anything else that would fit here. There's no need for capitalization here, though.

agree Stephen D. Moore : I believe this is right. One comment on capitalization: from growing up in Ecuador, I would expect "E.e. I.i." Regional variation, I believe.
