3.    Note Receivable

During November 2010, the Company sold its terminal facility in Shreveport, Louisiana.  In connection with this sale, the buyer gave the Company cash in the amount of $0.2 million and a note receivable in the amount of $2.1 million.  The note receivable bears interest at an annual rate of 7.0%, matures in five years and has scheduled principal and interest payments based on a 30-year amortization schedule.  A balloon payment in the approximate amount of $1.9 million is payable to the Company at the end of the note term.  Accordingly, the Company deferred the approximate $0.7 million gain on the sale of this facility, and will record this gain into earnings as payments on the note receivable are received.  The Company believes that the note receivable balance at December 31, 2011 in the approximate amount of $2.0 million is fully collectible and accordingly has not recorded any valuation allowance against the note receivable.
