The Amended Revolving Credit Facility became effective March 30, 2012. Concurrent with the execution of the amendment, and pursuant to the terms of the original agreement, we exercised our option to increase the total loan availability from $150.0 million to an aggregate of $300.0 million. The amendment allows us to request that the availability be increased up to an aggregate of $450.0 million, subject to receiving increased commitments from the lenders, compared to the original agreement, which allowed an aggregate capacity of $300.0 million. The Amended Revolving Credit Facility is non-recourse to Tesoro, except for TLGP, and is guaranteed by all of our subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of our assets. Borrowings available under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility are up to the total available revolving capacity of the facility. We had $50.0 million of borrowings and $0.3 million in letters of credit outstanding under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility, resulting in a total unused credit availability of $249.7 million, or 83%, of the borrowing capacity as of March 31, 2012. The Amended Revolving Credit Facility is scheduled to mature on April 25, 2014. See Note O for information regarding subsequent events including an amendment to the Amended Revolving Credit Facility.
