Private Shelf Agreement

At December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, the Company had $115.7 and $133.6 million, respectively, in unsecured, fixed rate, senior term notes outstanding under a Private Shelf Agreement, of which $22.1 million were classified as part of the current portion of the Company’s long-term debt at December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011. The notes require quarterly payments, and final maturity dates range from June 2013 through December 2017.

Convertible Senior Notes

In July 2009, the Company issued $172.5 million aggregate principal amount of 5.0 percent convertible senior notes due July 2014. The notes are unsecured, senior obligations of the Company and interest will be payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year at a rate of 5.0 percent per year. Upon the July 2009 issuance the notes were convertible subject to certain conditions further described below at an initial conversion rate of 64.6726 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (representing an initial conversion price of approximately $15.46 per share of the Company’s common stock). As of December 31, 2011, the conversion rate was 64.9954 shares of the Company’s common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (representing a conversion price of approximately $15.39 per share of the Company’s common stock).

Holders may convert their notes at their option prior to April 15, 2014 if the Company’s stock price meets certain price triggers or upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as defined in the convertible senior note agreement. On or after April 15, 2014, holders may convert each of their notes at their option at any time prior to the maturity date for the notes.

The Company has the choice of net-cash settlement, settlement in its own shares or a combination thereof and concluded the conversion option is indexed to its own stock. As a result, the Company allocated $24.7 million of the $172.5 million principal amount of the convertible senior notes to equity, which resulted in a $24.7 million debt discount. The allocation was based on measuring the fair value of the convertible senior notes using a discounted cash flow analysis. The discount rate was based on an estimated credit rating for the Company. The estimated fair value of the convertible senior notes was $147.8 million, and the resulting $24.7 million debt discount will be amortized over the period the convertible senior notes are expected to be outstanding, which is five years, as additional non-cash interest expense. The combined debt discount amortization and the contractual interest coupon resulted in an effective interest rate on the convertible debt of 8.9 percent.

The following table provides equity and debt information for the convertible senior notes:

Revolving Credit Facility

As of December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility. Additionally, the Company had outstanding standby letters of credit under the facility of $26.0 million at December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, primarily related to its self-insurance program. Unused available credit under the facility at December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011 was $374.0 million. The facility expires in June 2016.

Equipment and Leasehold Notes Payable

The equipment and leasehold notes payable are primarily comprised of capital lease obligations. In September 2011 the Company entered into an agreement to refinance existing capital leases to a three year term with a contract rate of 4.9 percent.  Capital leases of $20.5 million will be amortized at the historical rate of 9.2 percent.  There was no gain or loss recorded on the refinance. The Company entered into the refinancing to reduce cash interest payments.

Other Notes Payable

The Company had $0.7 and $1.3 million in unsecured outstanding notes at December 31, 2011 and June 30, 2011, respectively, related to debt assumed in acquisitions.
