Interest Rate Risk. At December 31, 2008 we had an outstanding loan balance of $1,650,000 under our $5.0 million revolving credit agreement, which bears interest at BBA LIBOR daily floating rate, plus 2.50 percentage points. In addition, beginning March 31, 2009, we will pay quarterly, in arrears, an unused commitment fee in an amount equal to ½ of 1 percent (.5%) times the daily average of the unadvanced amount of the commitment.
