Highlight of Business Operations:
During the six month period ended June 30, 2009, our credit availability under the revolving credit facilities in place between our wholly owned subsidiaries and two commercial banking lenders was reduced from $81,000 thousand to $65,400 thousand (for both facilities together) as a result of the reduction in the relevant borrowing base. The reduction is primarily due to the dramatic decline in the commodity prices year-over-year. Under the reduced facility availability, we can borrow up to a maximum of $65,400 thousand, of which approximately $54,950 thousand is currently outstanding. Management currently believes that the reduced availability continues to provide the liquidity needed to meet our expected working capital needs for the balance of fiscal 2009. On July 16, 2009, the lenders under our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of March 27, 2008, as amended and restated as of April 28, 2008, reduced the borrowing base by $10 million to $35 million.At June 30, 2009, our total debt was $138,701 thousand compared to total debt of $146,098 thousand at year-end 2008.
