The existing credit facility was due to mature in May, 2011.

"We're very pleased that Pawnee's lenders have once again demonstrated their support of its growth by renewing and expanding Pawnee's credit facility for another three years," said Chesswood's President and CEO, Barry
Shafran. "Our credit facility has been increased to US$55 million while the accordion feature of our loan agreement has been increased to US$85 million from US$65 million," added Shafran. Pawnee utilized US$37 million under its credit facility, as of the end of August.
