The Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement permits the Company to borrow up to $200,000,000 under its revolving credit facility to, among other things, finance acquisitions and development projects and stock repurchase programs at an interest rate equal to, at the Company’s option, the prime rate, LIBOR plus 0.50% to 1.50%, or a combination thereof; provides for a fee of 0.15% to 0.30% of unused commitments; prohibits the payment of dividends; and contains customary covenants, including covenants relating to the ratio of debt to net worth, operating performance and minimum net worth.
     The obligations of the Company under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement are guaranteed by all of the wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company and secured by a pledge of (i) the Company’s ownership interest in each of its wholly owned subsidiaries and (ii) the ownership interest of the Company’s subsidiaries in each non-wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.
     Borrowings under the revolving credit facility mature on July 28, 2011. If an event of default under the revolving credit facility shall occur and be continuing, the commitments under the revolving credit facility may be terminated and the principal amount outstanding under the revolving credit facility, together with all accrued unpaid interest and other amounts owing under the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and related loan documents, may be declared immediately due and payable.
     The summary of the foregoing transaction is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which is included as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
