(a) Due to our losses in fiscal 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009, the coverage ratio was less than 1:1. The Company must generate additional earnings of $4.6 million, $16.9 million, $24.5 million, $23.5 million and $17.1 million to achieve a coverage of 1:1 in fiscal 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009, repectively.
