DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS         The Company is exposed to market risks, such as changes in interest rates, and has historically entered into interest rate swap and cap agreements to manage that risk. Additionally, some of the Company's debt facilities require interest rate cap agreements in order to limit the Company's exposure to increases in interest rates. The Company used interest rate swap agreements for asset-backed medium-term note issuances in 2007 to effectively convert variable interest rates to fixed interest rates; however, in late 2011, the Company terminated its 2007 swap agreements and paid a termination fee of $8.8 million to settle the outstanding liability. The remaining unamortized value of the hedge deferred in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the balance sheet was reclassified into earnings as interest expense through July 2012. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, $0.4 million and $8.5 million, respectively, were reclassified into earnings as interest expense. The Company has also used interest rate cap agreements for its Series 2010-3 VFN, to effectively limit the variable interest rate on a total of $600 million in asset-backed VFNs. These cap agreements have a termination date of July 2014. There were no derivatives designated as hedging instruments at September 30, 2012 or December 31, 2011.         The fair value of derivatives outstanding at September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are as follows (in thousands): <div style="POSITION: relative;

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS         The Company is exposed to market risks, such as changes in interest rates, and has entered into interest rate swap and cap agreements to manage that risk. Additionally, some of the Company's debt facilities require interest rate cap agreements in order to limit the Company's exposure to increases in interest rates. Consequently, the Company manages the financial exposure as part of its risk management program by striving to reduce the potentially adverse effects that the volatility of the financial markets may have on the Company's operating results. The Company used interest rate swap agreements for asset-backed medium-term note issuances in 2007, to effectively convert variable interest rates on a total of $500 million in asset-backed medium-term notes to fixed interest rates. On December 28, 2011, the Company terminated its 2007 swap agreements and paid a termination fee of $8.8 million to settle the outstanding liability, which is disclosed in cash flows from financing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The remaining unamortized value of the hedge in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on the balance sheet will be reclassified into earnings as interest expense over the remaining term of the related debt through July 2012. The Company has also used interest rate cap agreements for its 2010-3 VFN, to effectively limit the variable interest rate on a total of $600 million in asset-backed VFNs. This cap has a termination date of July 2014. The Series 2010-1 VFN and Series 2010-2 VFN interest rate cap agreements were terminated in December 2011 following the termination of the related debt facilities.         The fair value of derivatives outstanding for the years ended December 31, 2011 and 2010 are as follows (in thousands): <div style="POSITION: relative;
