At March 26, 2010, we had a $7.2 million balance outstanding under our new revolving credit facility. The maximum borrowing limit under our revolving credit facility is limited to the lesser of (i) $15.0 million or (ii) an amount equal to the sum of 85% of the receivables borrowing base and 35% of the inventory borrowing base. We believe that our liquidity is adequate to cover operating requirements for the next 12 months. Our new credit facility is described in detail in note #3 to the consolidated financial statements on page 10, 11 and 12.
