(1)
During 2012, we designated the Path 15 project as an asset held for sale. Accordingly, Path 15 senior secured bonds current maturities of $9.4 million and long term debt of $128.0 million, including a purchase accounting fair value adjustment of $9.9 million, are recorded as a component of liabilities associated with assets held for sale in the current section of the consolidated balance sheets at year-end December 31, 2012. See Note 19 for further discussion.

(2)
The terms of the Piedmont project-level debt financing include a $51.0 million bridge loan, a portion of which we expect to repay with the proceeds from the stimulus grant expected to be received from the U.S. Treasury 60 days after the start of commercial operations, and an $82.0 million construction term loan that will convert to a term loan upon commercial operations of the project. However, because such grant proceeds are subject to Congressional action, we cannot provide any assurances with respect to the timing, availability or amount, if any, of such grants. The $51.0 million bridge loan will be repaid in early 2013 and repayment of the expected $82.0 million term loan will commence in 2013.

(3)
During 2012, we designated the Auburndale project as an asset held for sale. Accordingly, the Auburndale term loan due 2013 with current maturities of $4.9 million is recorded as a component of liabilities associated with assets held for sale in the current section of the consolidated balance sheets at year-end December 31, 2012. See Note 19 for further discussion.

(4)
Meadow Creek debt consists of $152.2 million drawn on a construction term loan which will become a term loan in June 2013, and a $56.5 million cash grant loan, which we expect to repay in the first half of 2013 through proceeds from a grant expected to be received from the U.S. Treasury.
