On February 6, 2009, we entered into a three-year finance facility which provides for borrowings by us of up to $150 million including a term loan of $50 million and revolving credit facility of $100 million. The revolving credit facility can be drawn down until the finance facility expires on February 6, 2012. Up to $50 million of the revolving credit facility may be drawn down by the Company in the U.S.. The term loan repayments are as follows: $10 million was paid on February 5, 2010; $15 million was paid on February 7, 2011; and $25 million is due on February 6, 2012.

The Company's finance facility contains restrictive clauses which may constrain our activities and limit our operational and financial flexibility. The facility obliges the lenders to comply with a request for utilization of finance unless there is an event of default outstanding. Events of default are defined in the finance facility and include a material adverse change to our business, properties, assets, financial condition or results of operations. The facility contains a number of restrictions that limit our ability, amongst other things, and subject to certain limited exceptions, to incur additional indebtedness, pledge our assets as security, guarantee obligations of third parties, make investments, undergo a merger or consolidation, dispose of assets, or materially change our line of business.

In addition, the facility also contains terms which, if breached, would result in the loan becoming repayable on demand. It requires, among other matters, compliance with two financial covenant ratios measured on a quarterly basis. These requirements are (1) the ratio of net debt to EBITDA shall not be greater than 2.5:1 and (2) the ratio of EBITDA to net interest shall not be less than 4.0:1. EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure of liquidity defined in the finance facility. Management believes that the Company has not breached these covenants throughout the period to June 30, 2011, and expects to not breach these covenants for the remaining term of the facility. The finance facility is secured by a number of fixed and floating charges over certain assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.
