(1) During 2009, we entered into eleven interest rate swap arrangements pertaining to $293.3 million
notional amount of outstanding debt. The notional amount of the outstanding debt related to interest
rate swaps at December 31, 2009 and December 31, 2008 was $447.0 million and $177.7 million,
respectively. These swaps expire between 2018 and 2020. The interest rate swaps effectively result in
us paying a fixed rate of interest on a portion of our floating-rate debt securities through the expiration
of the swaps.
As discussed below, we have a combined Credit Facility consisting of a letter of credit facility and a revolving
line of credit facility.
Maturities of debt for the next five years and thereafter, in aggregate, are (in millions): 2010-$281; 2011-$65;
2012-$61; 2013-$72; 2014-$70; thereafter-$652. Maturities for 2010 include $125 million outstanding under
the revolving line of credit facility. As of February 1, 2010, all amounts outstanding under the revolving line of
credit facility have been repaid. The holders of our 7.0% convertible notes due in 2023 may require us to
repurchase such notes in 2010, 2013 or 2018. The maturities of debt amounts include the assumed cash impact
of the holders of such notes potentially exercising their options to require us to repurchase such notes in 2010;
therefore, the $95.8 million principal amount of the 7.0% convertible notes is included in the 2010 maturity
amount, and classified as a current liability as of December 31, 2010. We have the option to pay the repurchase
price in shares of our common stock, in cash, or in any combination of the two. If the holders of the 7.0%
convertible notes require us to repurchase the notes, it is our policy to pay the repurchase price in cash.
