Debt Extinguishment

In October 2015 we redeemed $150.0 million in unsecured notes that had a scheduled maturity in March of 2016. We will recognize a net loss on the extinguishment of these notes in the fourth quarter totaling $3.1 million, which is comprised of a make-whole payment to the bondholders as well as the write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs. The repurchase was completed on October 30, 2015.
