If a borrower defaults on its commitment(s) subject to any letter of credit issued under these arrangements, we would be required to meet the borrower's financial obligation and would seek repayment of that financial obligation from the borrower. These arrangements had carrying amounts totaling $4.6 million and $6.1 million, as reported in other liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, we had unfunded commitments to extend credit to our clients of $2.2 billion and $2.8 billion, respectively, including unfunded commitments to extend credit by CapitalSource Bank of $959.2 million and $914.9 million, respectively. Additional information on these contingencies is included in Note 20, Commitments and Contingencies, in our audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2009, included in our Form 10-K. As of September 30, 2010, we had sold all of our direct real estate investment properties. We are responsible for indemnifying the current owners for any remediation, including costs of removal and disposal of asbestos that existed prior to the sales, through the third anniversary date of the sale. We will recognize any remediation costs if notified by the current owners of their intention to exercise their indemnification rights, however, no such notification has been received to date. As of September 30, 2010, sufficient information was not available to estimate our potential liability for conditional asset retirement obligations as the obligations to remove the asbestos from these properties continue to have indeterminable settlement dates.  From time to time we are party to legal proceedings. We do not believe that any currently pending or threatened proceeding, if determined adversely to us, would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations, including our cash flows.
