H1B Duration after amended Petition

[bkr_82_in]

My h1b petition was approved in June 2011, but was not able to come to US in 2011, I found another employer in 2012 and the new employer did an amended petition, the petition was approved for 3 years, I came to US in 2012, my visa is till June 2015, How much duration will be left for me after my first visa expires, can i get another 3 years extension or only 2 years remaining as per my approved cap count in 2011.

Only the time that you actually spend in the US in H1 or L1 status counts towards the 6 year limit.
