(3)  Long-Term Debt

 In May 2011, we entered into an amendment to our unsecured committed credit facility which extends the maturity date of loans made under the facility until May 2016.  The aggregate principal amount of the credit facility of $50 million may be increased at our option, subject to completion of signed amendments with the lender, up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $75 million.  At June 30, 2011, there was no outstanding principal balance on the credit facility.  As of that date, we had outstanding standby letters of credit of $9.6 million and remaining borrowing availability of $40.4 million.  This facility bears interest at a variable rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate or the lender’s Prime Rate, in each case plus/minus applicable margins.
