As of June 30, 2009, there was approximately $31.8 million outstanding under the line of credit, and approximately $2.8 million outstanding pursuant to letters of credit. After the modification, at June 30, 2009, the remaining borrowing capacity available under the line of credit was approximately $15.4 million. The Company was in compliance with all covenants under the line of credit as of June 30, 2009.
