(1)
The interest rate on the credit facilities is based on LIBOR plus 160 to 235 basis points, depending upon overall Company leverage as defined in the loan agreements for the Company's credit facility, with the current rate set at 160 basis points.  Additionally, the Company pays fees on the unused portion of the credit facilities ranging between 25 and 35 basis points based upon usage of the aggregate commitment, with the current rate set at 25 basis points.
(2)
The interest rate on the term loan is based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 1.5% to 2.3% depending on overall Company leverage (with the current rate set at 1.5%).  On September 28, 2012, the Company executed two floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps totaling $125 million, locking LIBOR at 0.7% for five years which is effective October 1, 2012.

On March 30, 2012, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with a consortium of eight banks for its $190 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility.  Additionally, the Company amended its $10 million working capital revolving credit facility under substantially the same terms and conditions, with the combined size of the facilities remaining at $200 million (collectively, the "New Facilities").  The New Facilities provide for modifications to the Company's then-existing credit facilities by, among other things, extending the maturity date from January 31, 2014 to March 29, 2016, with an additional one-year extension option with the payment of a fee, increasing the size of the accordion feature from $50 million to as much as $160 million, lowering applicable interest rate spreads and unused fees, and modifying certain other terms and financial covenants.  The interest rate on the New Facilities is based on LIBOR plus 160 to 235 basis points, depending on overall Company leverage (with the current rate set at 160 basis points).  Additionally, the Company pays fees on the unused portion of the New Facilities ranging between 25 and 35 basis points based upon usage of the aggregate commitment (with the current rate set at 25 basis points). Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated acted as Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Book Runners on the senior facility.  In addition, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. acted as Administrative Agent and Bank of America, N.A. acted as Syndication Agent.  KeyBank, N.A., PNC Bank, N.A. and Royal Bank of Canada all acted as Documentation Agents.  Other participating lenders include JPMorgan Chase Bank, Trustmark National Bank, and Seaside National Bank and Trust.  The working capital revolving credit facility was provided solely by PNC Bank, N.A.

On October 10, 2012, the Company exercised $25 million of the $160 million accordion feature of its existing unsecured revolving credit facility and increased capacity from $190 million to $215 million with the additional borrowing capacity being provided by U.S. Bank National Association, bringing the total number of participating lenders to nine.  The interest rate on the credit facility is currently LIBOR plus 160 basis points.  Other terms and conditions under the credit facility remain unchanged.

On September 27, 2012, the Company closed a $125 million unsecured term loan.  The term loan has a maturity date of September 27, 2017, and has an accordion feature that allows for an increase in the size of the term loan to as much as $250 million, subject to certain conditions.  Interest on the term loan is based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 150 to 225 basis points depending on overall Company leverage (with the current rate set at 150 basis points).  The term loan has substantially the same operating and financial covenants as required by the Company's current unsecured revolving credit facility.  Keybanc Capital Markets, Inc. and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated acted as Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners on the term loan.  In addition, Keybank National Association acted as Administrative Agent; Bank of America, N. A. acted as Syndication Agent; and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association acted as Documentation Agent.  Other participating lenders include Royal Bank of Canada, PNC Bank, National Association, U. S. Bank National Association, and Trustmark National Bank. On September 28, 2012, the Company executed two floating-to-fixed interest rate swaps totaling $125 million, locking LIBOR at 0.7% for five years, which results in an initial all-in interest rate of 2.2%.  The term loan had an outstanding balance of $125 million at December 31, 2012.
