Financing Agreement	NOTE 4. Financing Agreement In August 2011, Polaris entered into a $350,000,000 unsecured revolving loan facility. In January 2013, Polaris amended the loan facility to provide more beneficial covenant and interest rate terms and extend the expiration date from August 2016 to January 2018. Interest is charged at rates based on LIBOR or “prime.” There were no borrowings under the revolving loan facility at June 30, 2013. In December 2010, the Company entered into a Master Note Purchase Agreement to issue $25,000,000 of 3.81 percent unsecured senior notes due May 2018 and $75,000,000 of 4.60 percent unsecured senior notes due May 2021 (collectively, the “Senior Notes”). The Senior Notes were issued in May 2011. The unsecured revolving loan facility and the Master Note Purchase Agreement contain covenants that require Polaris to maintain certain financial ratios, including minimum interest coverage and maximum leverage ratios. Polaris was in compliance with all such covenants as of June 30, 2013. As of June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the Company’s capital lease obligations totaled $7,601,000 and $7,179,000, respectively, which included $3,297,000 and $2,887,000, respectively, classified as a current liability.
