Effective September 30, 2011, we entered into an amended and restated $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility. The facility expires in September 2015 and provides for a one-year extension upon our request and borrowing rates that float at a margin over LIBOR plus a facility fee. The borrowing margin and facility fee, which are priced off a grid that is tied to our senior unsecured credit ratings, are currently 125.0 and 25.0 basis points, respectively. The facility also contains a competitive bid feature that will allow us to request bids for up to $250 million. Additionally, an accordion feature allows us to increase the facility amount up to $700 million.

Effective May 2010, we entered into an agreement with a bank for an unsecured and uncommitted overnight facility totaling $99 million that we intend to maintain for cash management purposes. The facility provides for fixed interest rate loans at a 30 day LIBOR rate plus a borrowing margin based on market liquidity.

Related to a development project in Sheridan, Colorado, we have provided a guaranty for the payment of any debt service shortfalls until a coverage rate of 1.4x is met on tax increment revenue bonds issued in connection with the project. The bonds are to be repaid with incremental sales and property taxes and a public improvement fee (“PIF”) to be assessed on current and future retail sales and, to the extent necessary, any amounts we may have to provide under a guaranty. The incremental taxes and PIF are to remain intact until the earlier of the date the bond liability has been paid in full or 2040, as extended by the Sheridan Redevelopment Agency (“Agency”) in April 2011. Therefore, a debt service guaranty liability equal to the fair value of the amounts funded under the bonds was recorded. For both periods ended at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had $74.1 million outstanding for the debt service guaranty liability.

On August 29, 2011, we entered into a $200 million unsecured term loan of which the proceeds were used to pay down amounts outstanding under our revolving credit facility. The initial term of the loan was one year, which we repaid at par after nine months on May 31, 2012 at our option. In addition, a $115 million 5.3% fixed-rate medium term note matured in May 2012.

Various leases and properties, and current and future rentals from those leases and properties, collateralize certain debt. At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the carrying value of such assets aggregated $1.6 billion and $1.7 billion, respectively.

Scheduled principal payments on our debt (excluding $229.0 million due under our revolving credit facilities, $21.0 million of certain capital leases, $10.8 million fair value of interest rate contracts, $1.6 million net premium/(discount) on debt, $9.6 million of non-cash debt-related items, and $74.1 million debt service guaranty liability) are due during the following years (in thousands):
