All other debt may be traded on the secondary loan market, and the fair value is based on either the last available trading price, if recent, or trading prices of comparable debt (Level 3). See Note 8 for further discussion of fair value.

² Capital lease obligations include the borrowings for the salad production and warehousing facility in the Midwest. See further description of the build-to-suit lease below.
