7. Debt

     In connection with the Company's May 2011 refinancing of its Series 2006-1 Senior Secured Variable Funding Notes, Class A-1 (the "2006 Variable Funding Notes") and Series 2006-1 Senior Secured Fixed Rate Notes, Class A-2, the Company recognized a $28.2 million loss from the early extinguishment of debt during the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, which primarily consisted of a $25.3 million prepayment premium and the write-off of unamortized deferred loan fees remaining from the refinanced debt. In addition, the Company's deferred hedging loss was reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income into earnings during the third quarter of fiscal year 2011. Prior to the refinancing, during the second quarter of fiscal year 2011, the Company repurchased $62.5 million of its 2006 Variable Funding Notes in a privately negotiated transaction. The Company recognized a gain of $5.2 million on the extinguishment of the notes during the second fiscal quarter of 2011. These transactions are reflected within "net loss from early extinguishment of debt" in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
