We have a $500 million unsecured credit facility which matures in September 2015 with an option to extend at our election to September 2016. Additionally, we have the option to increase this credit facility to $750 million by either adding additional banks to the credit facility or obtaining the agreement of the existing banks in the credit facility to increase their commitments. The interest rate is based upon LIBOR plus a margin which is subject to change as our credit ratings change. Advances under the line of credit may be priced at the scheduled rates, or we may enter into bid rate loans with participating banks at rates below the scheduled rates. These bid rate loans have terms of 180 days or less and may not exceed the lesser of $250 million or the remaining amount available under the line of credit. The line of credit is subject to customary financial covenants and limitations. We are in compliance with all such financial covenants and limitations.

Our line of credit provides us with the ability to issue up to $100 million in letters of credit. While our issuance of letters of credit does not increase our borrowings outstanding under our line of credit, it does reduce the amount available. At September 30, 2012, we had outstanding letters of credit totaling approximately $10.9 million, leaving approximately $455.1 million available under our unsecured line of credit.

In June 2012, we repaid a 4.92% secured third-party note payable which was due to mature on July 1, 2012 for approximately $33.7 million. In August 2012, we repaid a 5.07% secured third-party note payable which matured on August 1, 2012 for approximately $19.3 million. In August 2012, we repaid a 4.92% secured third-party note payable which was due to mature on September 1, 2012 for approximately $16.7 million.

On October 1, 2012, we repaid a $31.5 million secured third-party note payable which was scheduled to mature in August 2013. This secured debt related to a fully-consolidated joint venture in which we acquired the remaining noncontrolling ownership interest in September 2012. See Note 6, "Property acquisitions, discontinued operations, and assets held for sale" for further discussion.

At September 30, 2012 and 2011, the weighted average interest rate on our floating rate debt, which include amounts outstanding on our unsecured line of credit, was approximately 1.1%.

Our indebtedness, including amounts drawn on our unsecured line of credit, had a weighted average maturity of 6.2 years at September 30, 2012. Scheduled repayments on outstanding debt, including our line of credit and scheduled principal amortizations, and the weighted average interest rate on maturing debt at September 30, 2012 were as follows:

2012	$	190.3	5.9	%
2013 (1)	259.5		4.9
