(1) At June 30, 2011, $12 was available under our accounts receivable securitization facility. The interest rate applicable to the accounts receivable securitization facility was 1.6 percent at June 30, 2011. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the monthly average amount outstanding under the accounts receivable securitization facility was $199, and the weighted-average interest rate thereon was 1.6 percent. The maximum month-end amount outstanding under the accounts receivable securitization facility during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $224.
(2) At June 30, 2011, $541 was available under our ABL facility, net of $51 of letters of credit. The interest rate applicable to the ABL facility was 3.4 percent at June 30, 2011. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, the monthly average amount outstanding under the ABL facility was $656, and the weighted-average interest rate thereon was 3.4 percent. The maximum month-end amount outstanding under the ABL facility during the six months ended June 30, 2011 was $768.
(3) The difference between the June 30, 2011 carrying value of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes and the $169 principal amount reflects the $44 unamortized portion of the original issue discount recognized upon issuance of the notes, which is being amortized through the maturity date of November 15, 2015. Because the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes were convertible at June 30, 2011, an amount equal to the $44 unamortized portion of the original issue discount is separately classified in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and referred to as "temporary equity." Based on the price of our common stock during the first quarter of 2011, holders of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes had the right to convert the notes during the second quarter of 2011 at a conversion price of $11.11 per share of common stock, and $4 of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes were converted. Based on the price of our common stock during the second quarter of 2011, holders of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes have the right to convert the notes during the third quarter of 2011 at the initial conversion price of $11.11 per share of common stock. Through July 15, 2011, we received conversion notices from holders of $1 principal amount of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes. The $1 principal amount will be converted during the third quarter of 2011.

In August 1998, a subsidiary trust of Holdings (the "Trust") issued and sold $300 of 6  1/2 percent Convertible Quarterly Income Preferred Securities ("QUIPS") in a private offering. The Trust used the proceeds from the offering to purchase 6 1/2 percent subordinated convertible debentures due 2028 (the "Debentures"), which resulted in Holdings receiving all of the net proceeds of the offering. The QUIPS are non-voting securities, carry a liquidation value of $50 (fifty dollars) per security and are convertible into Holdings' common stock. Total long-term debt at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 excludes $87 and $124, respectively, of these Debentures, which are separately classified in our condensed consolidated balance sheets and referred to as "subordinated convertible debentures." The subordinated convertible debentures reflect the obligation to our subsidiary that has issued the QUIPS. This subsidiary is not consolidated in our financial statements because we are not the primary beneficiary of the Trust. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we purchased an aggregate of $37 of QUIPS for $36. In connection with this transaction, we retired $37 principal amount of our subordinated convertible debentures and recognized a loss of $1, inclusive of the write-off of capitalized debt issuance costs. This loss is reflected in interest expense-subordinated convertible debentures in our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

(5) As of June 30, 2011, our short-term debt primarily reflects $212 of borrowings under our accounts receivable securitization facility and $125 of 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes. The 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes mature in 2015, but are reflected as short-term debt because they are convertible at June 30, 2011.

 

Convertible Note Hedge Transactions

In connection with the November 2009 issuance of $173 aggregate principal amount of 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes, Holdings entered into convertible note hedge transactions with option counterparties. The convertible note hedge transactions cost $26, and decreased additional paid-in capital by $17, net of taxes, in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of stockholders' equity (deficit). The convertible note hedge transactions cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments, 15.2 million shares of our common stock. The convertible note hedge transactions are intended to reduce, subject to a limit, the potential dilution with respect to our common stock upon conversion of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes. The effect of the convertible note hedge transactions is to increase the effective conversion price to $15.56 per share, equal to an approximately 75 percent premium over the $8.89 closing price of our common stock at issuance. The effective conversion price is subject to change in certain circumstances, such as if the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes are converted prior to May 15, 2015. In the event the market value of our common stock exceeds the effective conversion price per share, the settlement amount received from such transactions will only partially offset the potential dilution. For example, if, at the time of exercise of the conversion right, the price of our common stock was $25.00 or $30.00 per share, assuming an effective conversion price of $15.56 per share, on a net basis, we would issue 5.7 million or 7.3 million shares, respectively. During the second quarter of 2011, $4 of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes were converted at an effective conversion price of $13.78. Upon the conversion of the $4 of the notes, we received $1 from the hedge counterparties, and recognized a $1 increase in additional paid-in capital. Additionally, upon the conversion of the $4 of the 4 percent Convertible Senior Notes, additional paid-in capital was reduced by $6 reflecting the excess of the cash transferred upon settlement over the $4 principal amount that was settled.

Loan Covenants and Compliance

As of June 30, 2011, we were in compliance with the covenants and other provisions of the ABL facility, the accounts receivable securitization facility, the senior notes and the QUIPS. Any failure to be in compliance with any material provision or covenant of these agreements could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity and operations.

The only material financial covenants which currently exist relate to the fixed charge coverage ratio and the senior secured leverage ratio under the ABL facility. Both of these covenants were suspended on June 9, 2009 because the availability, as defined in the agreement governing the ABL facility, had exceeded 20 percent of the maximum revolver amount under the ABL facility. Subject to certain limited exceptions specified in the ABL facility, these covenants will only apply in the future if availability under the ABL facility falls below 10 percent of the maximum revolver amount under the ABL facility. Since the June 9, 2009 suspension date and through June 30, 2011, availability under the ABL facility has exceeded 10 percent of the maximum revolver amount under the ABL facility and, as a result, these maintenance covenants remained inapplicable. Under our accounts receivable securitization facility, we are required, among other things, to maintain certain financial tests relating to: (i) the default ratio, (ii) the delinquency ratio, (iii) the dilution ratio and (iv) days sales outstanding.
