Roper's 3.75% senior subordinated convertible notes due 2034 became convertible on January 15, 2009.  During the three month period ended March 31, 2013, 113 notes were converted by note holders for $0.16 million in cash.  No gain or loss was recorded upon these conversions.  In addition, a related $0.3 million deferred tax liability associated with excess deductions recorded for tax purposes was relieved to additional paid-in capital upon the conversions.

At March 31, 2013, the conversion of 3,495 notes was pending, with a settlement date of April 4, 2013.  The conversion resulted in the payment of $5.5 million in cash.

At March 31, 2013, the conversion price on the remaining outstanding notes was $461.87.  If converted at March 31, 2013, the value would have exceeded the $10 million principal amount of the outstanding notes by $24 million and could have resulted in the issuance of 193,257 shares of Roper's common stock.
