Senior Notes

On May 20, 2011, we issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.25% senior notes due 2021 (the "Notes"). Separate financial statements for each guarantor subsidiary are not included in this filing because each guarantor subsidiary is wholly-owned and the guarantees of the Notes are full and unconditional and joint and several. There are no significant restrictions on the ability of the parent company or any guarantor subsidiary to obtain funds from its subsidiaries by dividend or loan. The Notes bear interest at 7.25% per annum and mature on June 1, 2021. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning on December 1, 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we repurchased $7.0 million of the Notes. As of June 30, 2012, we were in compliance with all of our covenants under the indenture.

Credit Agreement

On May 23, 2011, the Company, CoreLogic Australia Pty Limited and the guarantors named therein entered into a senior secured credit facility agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent and other financial institutions. The Credit Agreement provides for a $350.0 million five-year term loan facility (the "Term Facility") and a $550.0 million revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Facility"). The Revolving Facility includes a $100.0 million multicurrency revolving sub-facility and a $50.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. As of June 30, 2012, A$50.0 million, or $51.2 million, is outstanding under the multicurrency revolving sub-facility related to our acquisition of RP Data Limited ("RP Data"). The Credit Agreement also provides for the ability to increase the Term Facility and Revolving Facility commitments provided that the total credit exposure under the Credit Agreement does not exceed $1.4 billion in the aggregate. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, we paid $61.3 million of outstanding indebtedness under the Term Facility of which $43.8 million was a prepayment. This prepayment was applied to the most current portion of the term loan amortization schedule.

As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we have recorded $3.7 million and $4.4 million, respectively, of accrued interest expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, debt prepayments resulted in $0.4 million of incremental interest expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income due to the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs.

Acquisition-Related Notes

In March 2011, we entered into a new settlement services joint venture with Speedy Title & Appraisal Review Services LLC ("STARS"). Our initial investment in STARS was $20.0 million and we also issued a note payable for an additional $15.0 million of consideration, which is non-interest bearing and due in three equal installments. As of June 30, 2012, the discounted balance outstanding under the note was $8.5 million.

Interest Rate Swaps
 
In June 2011, we entered into amortizing interest rate swap transactions (“Swaps”) with a termination date of May 2016. The Swaps had an initial notional value of $200.0 million, with a fixed interest rate of 1.73% and amortize quarterly by $2.5 million through September 30, 2013, $5.0 million from October 1, 2013 through September 30, 2014 and $7.5 million from October 1, 2014 through May 16, 2016, with a notional amount of $107.5 million.
 
We entered into the Swaps in order to convert a portion of our interest rate exposure on the Term Facility floating rate borrowings from variable to fixed. We have designated the Swaps as cash flow hedges. The estimated fair value of these cash flow hedges resulted in a liability of $6.3 million and $5.1 million at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, which is included in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as a component of other assets.
 
For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011, unrealized losses of $0.7 million (net of $0.5 million in deferred taxes) and $3.5 million (net of $2.4 million in deferred taxes) were recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss) related to the Swaps. For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2011, unrealized losses of $0.8 million (net of $0.5 million in deferred taxes) and $2.7 million (net of $1.8 million in deferred taxes) were recognized in other comprehensive income/(loss) related to the Swaps.
