NOTE 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

For purposes of this report, any reference to “Potlatch,” “the company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” means Potlatch Corporation and all of its wholly owned subsidiaries, except where the context indicates otherwise.

The accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income and Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income for the quarters and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012 , and the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). We believe that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results of such interim periods have been included.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012 , as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 15, 2013 .

NOTE 2. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In January 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2013-01, Financial Instruments, which clarifies the scope of disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. This pronouncement limits the scope of instruments subject to ASU 2011-11's offsetting disclosures to derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and lending agreements subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements. ASU No. 2013-01 was effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and was adopted in the first quarter of 2013. Since the accounting guidance only impacts disclosure requirements, its adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 9, Financial Instruments, for additional information.

In February 2013, the FASB issued ASU No. 2013-02, Comprehensive Income, which expands disclosures for items reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI). For items reclassified out of AOCI and into net income in their entirety, disclosure of the effect of the reclassification on each affected net income line item on the face of the statement of income or in the footnotes is required. For AOCI reclassification items that are not reclassified in their entirety into net income, a cross reference to other required U.S. GAAP disclosures is required. ASU No. 2013-02 was effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012, and was adopted in the first quarter of 2013. Since the accounting guidance only impacts disclosure requirements, its adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Refer to Note 7, Pension Plans and Other Postretirement Employee Benefits, for the new disclosure.

NOTE 3. INCOME TAXES

As a real estate investment trust (REIT), we generally are not subject to federal and state corporate income taxes on income of the REIT that we distribute to our shareholders. We are, however, subject to corporate taxes on built-in gains (the excess of fair market value over tax basis on January 1, 2006) on sales of real property held by the REIT during the first ten years following the REIT conversion. The sale of standing timber is not subject to built-in gains tax. The Small Business Jobs Act of 2010 modified the built-in gains provisions to exempt sales of real properties in 2011, if five years of the recognition period had elapsed before January 1, 2011. The American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 extended the reduced five-year holding period for sales occurring in 2012 and 2013. Accordingly, the built-in gains tax does not apply to sales that occur in 2011, 2012 and 2013.

We are required to pay federal and state corporate income taxes on earnings of our taxable REIT subsidiaries (TRS) operations, principally comprised of our wood products manufacturing operations and certain real estate investments held for development and resale.

For the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , we recorded income tax provisions of $4.6 million and $5.7 million , respectively, primarily due to pre-tax income of the TRS. For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , we recorded income tax provisions of $9.4 million and $6.7 million , respectively, primarily due to pre-tax income of the TRS.

FAIR VALUE HEDGES OF INTEREST RATE RISK

As of June 30, 2013 , we had six separate interest rate swaps with notional amounts totaling $46.75 million . The swaps convert interest payments with fixed rates to variable rates of 3-month LIBOR plus a spread.

NON-DESIGNATED LUMBER SWAPS

We participated in one commodity swap contract that cash settled in the first quarter of 2012 and two that cash settled in the second quarter of 2012. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated in hedging relationships were recorded directly in net income. As of June 30, 2013 there were no outstanding lumber swap contracts.

The following table presents the gross fair values of derivative instruments on our Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets as of the balance sheet dates:

(Dollars in thousands)	Balance Sheet Location	June 30, 2013	December 31, 2012
Derivatives designated as hedging instruments:
Interest rate contracts	Other assets (non-current)	$ 2,012	$ 2,952

No net unrealized gain or loss associated with the interest rate swaps was recognized in income for any of the periods presented because we recognized no hedge ineffectiveness.

NOTE 10. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

In January 2007, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) notified us that we are a potentially responsible party under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980 (CERCLA) and the Clean Water Act for cleanup of a site known as Avery Landing in northern Idaho. We own a portion of the land at the Avery Landing site, which we acquired in 1980 from the Milwaukee Railroad. The land we own at the site and adjacent properties were contaminated with petroleum as a result of the Milwaukee Railroad's operations at the site prior to 1980. We entered into a consent order with the EPA in August 2008 to conduct an Engineering Evaluation/Cost Analysis (EE/CA) study to determine the best means of addressing the contamination at the site. In January 2010, we submitted our draft EE/CA report to the EPA outlining various alternatives for addressing the contamination at the entire site. Ultimately, the EPA published a draft EE/CA report on January 26, 2011 for public comment. The EPA's report focused on a limited number of remedial alternatives which range in cost from approximately $7.9 million to $10.5 million . The public comment period closed March 11, 2011. On July 5, 2011, the EPA issued an Action Memorandum for the Avery Landing Site selecting contaminant extraction and off-site disposal as the remedial alternative at an estimated cost of approximately $9.5 million . On May 23, 2012, we signed a consent order with the EPA pursuant to which we agreed to provide $1.75 million in funding for EPA cleanup on a portion of our property (including the adjacent riverbank owned by the Idaho Department of Lands). On April 4, 2013 the EPA issued a unilateral administrative order requiring us to remediate the portion of the Avery Landing site that we own. During the first quarter of 2013, we increased our accrual by $0.75 million . We began work on the site in May 2013 and discovered more contaminant on our property than had been expected based upon previous testing, and accordingly, during the second quarter of 2013 we increased our expense by an additional $1.75 million . As of June 30, 2013 , we have an accrual balance of $5.6 million for this matter after charging $1.1 million against the reserve for expenses incurred during the second quarter on site remediation. We expect to complete work on the site in the third quarter of 2013. It is possible that the final cost of completion of the work could exceed our reserves by up to approximately $1.0 million if we encounter additional unforeseen circumstances or if our cost mitigation measures are not as successful as expected. That estimate is the upper end of the range of reasonably possible additional costs and is much less certain than the estimates on which our accruals currently are based. We have reserved all of our rights to seek reimbursement for the costs of remediation from all parties potentially responsible.

Overview

The operating results of our Resource, Real Estate and Wood Products business segments have been and will continue to be influenced by a variety of factors, including the cyclical nature of the forest products industry, which is largely dependent on the economy and U.S. housing starts, changes in timber prices and in harvest levels from our timberlands, competition, timberland valuations, demand for our non-strategic timberland for higher and better use purposes, the efficiency and level of capacity utilization of our wood products manufacturing operations, changes in our principal expenses such as log costs and fuel costs, asset dispositions or acquisitions, and other factors.

The strong performance of our Wood Products segment at the end of 2012 continued into 2013. Lumber prices increased substantially during the first quarter, then peaked in April before dropping back down again in May and June. Demand was steady through the first half of 2013, and we had a large amount of shipments at the time of the price peak, which resulted in very strong operating results in our Wood Products segment for the first six months of 2013. We adjusted our production and shipments in May and June to meet the decrease in demand. The effect of improved lumber pricing on log prices that we began to see in 2012 also continued into 2013. Sawlog prices in Idaho increased, and as a result, we pulled forward a portion of our planned harvest from the second half of the year into the first quarter to take advantage of this pricing opportunity. The spring break-up period that we experienced in the second quarter in Idaho was positively affected by drier weather in 2013, which allowed logging operations to start up earlier than in 2012, and enabled us to harvest additional volume in the second quarter. At this time we still expect our 2013 harvest to be approximately 3.8 million tons. In addition, the two land acquisitions we made in Arkansas in late 2012 contributed to higher sawlog and pulpwood harvests in our Southern region compared to 2012. During the second quarter of 2 013, our Real Estate segment completed a record number of sales transactions, reflecting continuing and possibly increasing demand for our rural real estate properties. Thus we are expecting continued improved pricing in our real estate sales as the year progresses.

Results of Operations

We are a real estate investment trust (REIT) with approximately 1.4 million acres of timberlands in Arkansas, Idaho and Minnesota. Through wholly owned taxable subsidiaries, which we refer to in this report as Potlatch TRS, we

operate a real estate sales and development business and five manufacturing facilities that produce lumber and plywood.

Our business is organized into three reporting segments: Resource, Real Estate and Wood Products. Sales between segments are recorded as intersegment revenues based on prevailing market prices. Because our Resource segment supplies our Wood Products segment with a portion of its wood fiber needs, intersegment revenues can represent a significant portion of the Resource segment’s total revenues. Our other segments generally do not generate intersegment revenues.

In the period-to-period discussions of our results of operations below, when we discuss our consolidated revenues, contributions by each of the segments to our revenues are reported after elimination of intersegment revenues. In the “Discussion of Business Segments” section below, segment revenues are presented before elimination of intersegment revenues.

Quarter Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to Quarter Ended June 30, 2012

The following table sets forth period-to-period changes in items included in our Consolidated Statements of Income for the quarters ended June 30 :

(Dollars in thousands) — Revenues	2013 — $ 133,212		2012 — $ 117,540		Income Effect — $ 15,672
Costs and expenses:
Cost of goods sold	91,904		88,688		(3,216	)
Selling, general and administrative expenses	10,117		11,762		1,645
Environmental remediation charge	1,750		—		(1,750	)
	103,771		100,450		(3,321	)
Operating income	29,441		17,090		12,351

Income tax provision	(4,592	)	(5,733	)	1,141
Net income	$ 19,182		$ 5,080		$ 14,102

Revenues – Revenues increased $15.7 million , or 13% , in the second quarter of 2013 over the same period in 2012 as a result of increased revenues from our Resource and Wood Products segments, partially offset by decreased revenues from our Real Estate segment. A more detailed discussion of revenues follows in “Discussion of Business Segments.”

Cost of goods sold – Cost of goods sold increased $3.2 million , or 4% , in the second quarter of 2013 over the second quarter of 2012 , primarily due to higher logging and hauling costs in our Resource segment and higher log costs in our Wood Products segment.

Selling, general and administrative expenses – Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1.6 million , or 14% , in the second quarter of 2013 from the same period in 2012 , primarily due to non-cash mark-to-market adjustments related to our deferred compensation plans.

Environmental remediation charge – In the second quarter of 2013 we recorded a pre-tax charge of $1.8 million to reflect increased remediation cost estimates associated with our Avery Landing site in Idaho.

Interest expense, net – Net interest expense decreased $0.6 million , or 10% , in the second quarter of 2013 from the same period in 2012 , primarily due to the early redemption of $36.7 million of debt in 2013, partially offset by the costs associated with the early debt redemption of $9.0 million in the second quarter of 2013.

Income tax provision – For the quarters ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , we recorded income tax provisions related to Potlatch TRS of $4.6 million and $5.7 million, respectively, due to pre-tax income.

Discussion of Business Segments

The following table summarizes operating information by business segment for the quarters ended June 30 :

(Dollars in thousands)	2013	2012	Increase (Decrease)
Segment Revenues:
Resource	$ 45,269	$ 33,888	$ 11,381
Real Estate	5,809	8,664	(2,855	)
Wood Products	94,982	83,623	11,359
Total segment revenues, before eliminations	$ 146,060	$ 126,175	$ 19,885
Segment Operating Income:
Resource	$ 14,467	$ 6,711	$ 7,756
Real Estate	4,116	6,689	(2,573	)
Wood Products	19,725	11,672	8,053
Total segment operating income, before eliminations and adjustments, and corporate items	$ 38,308	$ 25,072	$ 13,236

Resource Segment – Revenues for the segment increased $11.4 million , or 34% , during the second quarter of 2013 over the same period in 2012 due to price improvements and increased harvest levels. Price improvements accounted for $8.3 million of the revenue variance, while increased volumes accounted for $3.1 million of the variance. Total harvest volumes increased 9% due to improved demand in our Northern region and the incremental harvest from land acquisitions in our Southern region in 2012.

The following table summarizes our harvest levels for the quarters ended June 30:

(Volume in tons)	2013	2012
Northern region
Sawlog	333,924	281,265
Pulpwood	21,904	48,926
Stumpage	1,489	8,434
Total	357,317	338,625
Southern region
Sawlog	161,410	137,838
Pulpwood	182,262	164,974
Total	343,672	302,812
Total harvest volume	700,989	641,437

In our Northern region, total harvest volumes increased 6% in the second quarter of 2013 over the second quarter of 2012. Drier weather in Idaho during May allowed for additional logging days in 2013, which resulted in a 19% increase in sawlog volumes. Sawlog prices increased 28% due to strong demand. An oversupply of residuals and chips in the Northwest resulted in an 11% decrease in pulpwood prices compared to the second quarter of 2012. Lower pulpwood pricing led us to minimize pulpwood production in the second quarter, resulting in a 55% volume decrease in the second quarter of 2013 from the same period in 2012.

In our Southern region, total harvest volumes increased 13% in the second quarter of 2013 over the same period in 2012, primarily due to the additional harvest provided by two land acquisitions in Arkansas made in late 2012. Sawlog and pulpwood volumes increased 17% and 10%, respectively. Pulpwood volumes were also positively impacted by increased thinning activity to capture improved pricing in those markets. Sawlog prices increased 4% and pulpwood prices increased 6% due to adverse weather conditions and increased demand for hardwoods.

Expenses for the segment increased $3.6 million, or 13%, during the second quarter of 2013 over the second quarter of 2012, due to higher logging and hauling costs as a result of both increased per-unit costs and increased

volumes. Operating income for our Resource segment increased $7.8 million in the second quarter of 2013 over the same period in 2012.

Real Estate Segment – Revenues decreased $2.9 million , expenses decreased $0.3 million and operating income decreased $2.6 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 as a result of fewer acres sold and the mix of acres sold, as shown below.

The following table summarizes our real estate sales for the quarters ended June 30 :

	2013 — Acres Sold	Average Price/Acre	2012 — Acres Sold	Average Price/Acre
Higher and better use (HBU)	534	$ 2,053	930	$ 2,294
Rural real estate	3,110	1,279	4,793	1,160
Non-strategic timberland	1,128	652	1,590	608
Total	4,772		7,313

Wood Products – Revenues for the segment increased $11.4 million , or 14% , in the second quarter of 2013 over the same period in 2012 . Lumber prices increased 21% due to improved demand, primarily during April 2013, while lumber shipments declined 7% as markets weakened moving through the quarter. Expenses for the segment increased $3.3 million, or 5%, primarily as a result of higher log costs, higher logging and hauling expenses, and increased log usage. Operating income for the segment was $19.7 million for the second quarter of 2013 compared to $11.7 million in the second quarter of 2012.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2013 Compared to Six Months Ended June 30, 2012

The following table sets forth period-to-period changes in items included in our Consolidated Statements of Income for the six months ended June 30 :

(Dollars in thousands) — Revenues	2013 — $ 272,465		2012 — $ 229,924		Income Effect — $ 42,541
Costs and expenses:
Cost of goods sold	190,203		177,663		(12,540	)
Selling, general and administrative expenses	23,713		22,652		(1,061	)
Environmental remediation charge	2,500		—		(2,500	)
	216,416		200,315		(16,101	)
Operating income	56,049		29,609		26,440
Interest expense, net	(12,003	)	(12,763	)	760

Income tax provision	(9,377	)	(6,715	)	(2,662	)
Net income	$ 34,669		$ 10,131		$ 24,538

Revenues – Revenues increased $42.5 million , or 19% , in the first six months of 2013 over the same period in 2012 due to increased revenues from our Wood Products and Resource segments, partially offset by decreased revenues from our Real Estate segment. A more detailed discussion of revenues follows in “Discussion of Business Segments.”

Cost of goods sold – Cost of goods sold increased $12.5 million , or 7% , in the six months ended June 30, 2013 over the same period in 2012 , primarily due to higher logging and hauling costs associated with the increased harvests in our Resource segment during the quarter and higher log costs in our Wood Products segment.

Selling, general and administrative expenses – Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1.1 million , or 5% , in the first six months of 2013 over the same period in 2012 , primarily due to non-cash mark-to-market adjustments related to our deferred compensation plans.

Environmental remediation charge – In the first six months of 2013 we recorded pre-tax charges of $2.5 million to reflect increased remediation cost estimates associated with our Avery Landing site in Idaho.

Interest expense, net – Net interest expense decreased $0.8 million , or 6% , in the first six months of 2013 from the same period in 2012 , primarily due to the early redemption of $36.7 million of debt in 2013, partially offset by the costs associated with the early debt redemptions.

Income tax provision – For the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 , we recorded income tax provisions related to Potlatch TRS of $9.4 million and $6.7 million, respectively, due to pre-tax income.

Discussion of Business Segments

The following table summarizes operating information by business segment for the six months ended June 30 :

(Dollars in thousands)	2013	2012	Increase (Decrease)
Segment Revenues:
Resource	$ 100,237	$ 74,342	$ 25,895
Real Estate	10,444	16,828	(6,384	)
Wood Products	186,526	157,547	28,979
Total segment revenues, before eliminations	$ 297,207	$ 248,717	$ 48,490
Segment Operating Income:
Resource	$ 29,992	$ 15,380	$ 14,612
Real Estate	7,199	13,001	(5,802	)
Wood Products	38,635	16,716	21,919
Total segment operating income, before eliminations and adjustments, and corporate items	$ 75,826	$ 45,097	$ 30,729

Resource Segment – Revenues for the segment increased $25.9 million , or 35% , during the first half of 2013 over the same period in 2012 as a result of both improved prices and higher harvest levels. Improved prices accounted for $14.9 million of the revenue variance, while increased harvest levels accounted for $11.0 million of the variance. Total harvest volumes increased 15% due to our shift of a portion of our Idaho harvest scheduled for the second half of 2013 to the first quarter of 2013 to take advantage of favorable prices, and also to the incremental harvest from land acquisitions in our Southern region in 2012.

The following table summarizes our harvest levels for the six months ended June 30:

(Volume in tons)	2013	2012
Northern region
Sawlog	841,270	660,532
Pulpwood	94,263	144,836
Stumpage	21,959	27,299
Total	957,492	832,667
Southern region
Sawlog	314,690	284,560
Pulpwood	365,180	304,123
Total	679,870	588,683
Total harvest volume	1,637,362	1,421,350

In our Northern region, total harvest volumes increased 15% in the first half of 2013 over the first half of 2012. Improved log prices in Idaho resulted in a decision to pull forward a portion of the harvest planned for the second half of the year into the first quarter to take advantage of the pricing opportunity. In addition, improved logging conditions in Idaho during May 2013 allowed for more harvest days compared to 2012. As a result, sawlog volumes increased 27% in the first half of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012. Sawlog prices increased 20% primarily due to stronger demand. An oversupply of residuals and chips in the Northwest resulted in pulpwood prices 13% lower than the previous year. Lower pulpwood pricing led us to minimize pulpwood production, resulting in a 35% volume decrease in the first half of 2013 from 2012.

In our Southern region, total harvest volumes increased 15% in the first half of 2013 over the same period in 2012, primarily due to the additional harvest provided by two land acquisitions in Arkansas made in late 2012 and increased thinning activity to capture improved pulpwood prices. Sawlog and pulpwood volumes increased 11% and 20%, respectively. Sawlog prices increased 5% and pulpwood prices increased 8% due to the impact of unfavorable weather on logging.

Expenses for the segment increased $11.3 million, or 19%, during the first half of 2013 over the first half of 2012, due to higher logging and hauling costs associated with the increased harvest volumes. Operating income for our Resource segment increased $14.6 million , or 95% , in the first six months of 2013 over the same period in 2012.

Real Estate Segment – Revenues decreased $6.4 million , expenses decreased $0.6 million and operating income decreased $5.8 million in the first half of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 as a result of fewer acres sold and the mix of acres sold, as shown below. The average price per acre sold in the first half of 2013 was higher in each category compared to 2012.

The following table summarizes our real estate sales for the six months ended June 30 :

	2013 — Acres Sold	Average Price/Acre	2012 — Acres Sold	Average Price/Acre
Higher and better use (HBU)	763	$ 2,277	3,958	$ 1,952
Rural real estate	5,388	1,337	6,672	1,167
Non-strategic timberland	2,107	713	2,081	632
Total	8,258		12,711

Wood Products – Revenues for the segment increased $29.0 million , or 18% , in the first half of 2013 over the same period in 2012 . Lumber prices increased 27% over the previous year due to improved demand, while lumber shipments declined 6%. Expenses for the segment increased $7.1 million, or 5%, in the first half of 2013 over the same period of 2012, primarily as a result of higher log costs, higher logging and hauling expenses, and increased log usage. Operating income for the segment was $38.6 million for the first half of 2013 compared to $16.7 million in the first half of 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At June 30, 2013 , our financial position included long-term debt of $320.1 million , compared to $357.6 million at December 31, 2012, due to our early redemption of four revenue bond issues. Stockholders’ equity for the first six months of 2013 increased $16.2 million primarily due to net income of $34.7 million and the $4.3 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss due to amortization of defined benefit items, partially offset by our quarterly cash distributions to common stockholders totaling $25.1 million . The ratio of long-term debt to stockholders’ equity was 2.1 to 1 at June 30, 2013 compared to 2.6 to 1 at December 31, 2012.

Working capital totaled $61.7 million at June 30, 2013 , a decrease of $12.8 million from the December 31, 2012 balance of $74.5 million . The significant changes in the components of working capital are as follows:

• Cash and short-term investments decreased $29.6 million primarily due to the payment of our quarterly cash distributions to common stockholders totaling $25.1 million and the early redemption of long-term debt totaling $36.7 million, offset by cash provided by operating activities.

• Current installments on long-term debt decreased $8.4 million due to the early redemption of a revenue bond.

• Receivables increased $8.8 million primarily due to increased trade receivables associated with our Wood Products and Resource segments.

• Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased $3.4 million as a result of the environmental accruals for our Avery Landing site and increased trade payables.

• Inventories increased $2.8 million. Lumber and other manufactured wood products increased $6.2 million as inventories grew to meet the increase in demand that usually occurs in the second half of the year. This was partially offset by a $3.7 million decrease in log inventories as our wood products manufacturing facilities used their log inventories when weather conditions limited access to timberlands for logging.

Cash Flows Summary

The following table presents information regarding our cash flows for the six months ended June 30 :

(Dollars in thousands) — Net cash provided by operating activities	2013 — $ 41,515		2012 — $ 12,360
Net cash provided by investing activities	7,903		35,684
Net cash used for financing activities	(59,997	)	(47,315	)
Increase (decrease) in cash	(10,579	)	729
Cash at beginning of period	16,985		7,819
Cash at end of period	$ 6,406		$ 8,548

Net cash provided by operating activities for the first six months of 2013 totaled $41.5 million , compared to $12.4 million for the same period in 2012. The increase between periods was the result of higher net income generated in the first six months of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012 and the lack of pension plan funding in 2013, partially offset by negative changes in working capital in the 2013 period.

Net cash provided by investing activities totaled $7.9 million and $35.7 million for the first six months of 2013 and 2012, respectively. During the first six months of 2013, a $19.0 million net decrease in short-term investments was partially offset by $10.5 million of capital expenditures. During the first six months of 2012, we borrowed $21.8 million against our company-owned life insurance (COLI) plan to fund our 2012 pension contributions. In addition, a $21.3 million net decrease in short-term investments was partially offset by $6.7 million of capital expenditures. Capital expenditures in both periods were primarily for reforestation activities and routine general replacement projects associated with our wood products manufacturing facilities.

Net cash used for financing activities totaled $60.0 million and $47.3 million for the first six months of 2013 and 2012, respectively. Net cash used for financing activities in the first six months of 2013 was primarily used for early debt redemptions of $36.7 million and payment of our quarterly cash distributions to common stockholders of $25.1 million . Net cash used for financing activities in the first six months of 2012 was primarily for payment of our quarterly cash distributions to common shareholders of $25.0 million and debt maturities and redemptions of $21.7 million.

As of June 30, 2013 , there were no borrowings outstanding under our revolving line of credit, and approximately $1.9 million of the letter of credit subfacility was being used to support several outstanding letters of credit. Available borrowing capacity at June 30, 2013 was $248.1 million.

The following table sets forth the financial covenants in the bank credit facility and our status with respect to these covenants as of June 30, 2013 :

Minimum Interest Coverage Ratio	Covenant Requirement — 3.00 to 1.00		Actual Ratios at June 30, 2013 — 5.90 to 1.00
Minimum Timberland Coverage Ratio	3.00 to 1.00		5.97 to 1.00
Maximum Leverage Ratio	5.00 to 1.00	*	2.20 to 1.00

Commencing January 1, 2015, the Maximum Leverage Ratio will decrease to 4.50 to 1.00.

Our senior notes contain covenants that limit our ability to distribute cash to our shareholders, such as through the payment of dividends and repurchase of our capital stock, unless certain financial conditions are met. Our cumulative Funds Available for Distribution, or FAD, as defined in the covenant, less our dividends paid was $38.2 million at June 30, 2013 . The remaining balance available for the payment of future dividends pursuant to the covenant was $90.1 million at June 30, 2013 .

On April 2, 2013, Standard & Poor's upgraded our corporate credit and senior unsecured ratings to 'BB+' from 'BB,' with a stable outlook. On April 22, 2013, Moody's upgraded our debt rating to investment grade 'Baa3' from 'Ba1,' with a stable outlook.
