NOTE 6. Guarantees

We are guaranteeing certain tractor lease payments. The guarantees expire at various dates beginning in 2012 through 2017.

The potential maximum exposure under these lease guarantees was approximately $16.8 million and $6.8 million as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. The potential maximum exposure represents the amount of the remaining lease payments on all outstanding guaranteed leases as of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. However, upon default, we have the option to purchase the tractors. We could then sell the tractors and use the proceeds to recover all or a portion of the amounts paid under the guarantees. There were no material defaults during the quarter ended September 30, 2011.

As of September 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively, the liability was approximately $0.3 million and $0.1 million, for the guarantees representing the fair value of the guarantees based on a discounted cash-flow analysis. We are amortizing the liability over the remaining lives of the respective guarantees.
