In 2011, we issued two series of senior notes with an aggregate principal amount of $150 million ("Senior Notes") in a private placement transaction. Series A consists of $75 million in aggregate principal amount of notes that bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.01% and are due in full on September 30, 2021. Series B consists of $75 million in aggregate principal amount of notes that bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.11% and are due in full on September 30, 2023. Interest on each series of the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually on March 30 and September 30.

We maintain a credit facility (the "Credit Facility") with an aggregate borrowing capacity of $300 million at June 30, 2012. The Credit Facility provides an option to increase the commitment under the Credit Facility to $350 million, if certain conditions are met. The Credit Facility bears interest at variable rates from LIBOR plus 1.50% to a maximum of LIBOR plus 2.25%. Any outstanding balance under the Credit Facility is due September 28, 2016 when the Credit Facility matures. Interest payment terms are variable depending upon the specific type of borrowing under this facility. Our available capacity at any point in time is reduced by borrowings outstanding at the time and outstanding letters of credit and performance guarantees and bonds which totaled $16.0 million at June 30, 2012, resulting in an available borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility of $228.0 million. In addition to those items under the Credit Facility, we had $24.9 million of outstanding letters of credit and performance guarantees and bonds from other sources as of June 30, 2012.

The terms of the Credit Facility and the Senior Notes require us to meet certain financial and operational covenants, including, but not limited to, certain operational and minimum equity and cash flow ratios. We were in compliance with all such covenants at June 30, 2012, and expect to remain in compliance for the foreseeable future. Certain of our material, wholly-owned subsidiaries are guarantors or co-borrowers under the Credit Facility and Senior Notes.

The estimated fair value of total debt at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 approximated the book value of total debt. The fair value was estimated using Level 2 inputs including rates on similar debt recently issued by our peer group.

Other indebtedness includes approximately $0.6 million of debt incurred relating to the financing of our corporate insurance.
