SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS

We have several lines of credit which allow us to borrow in the applicable local currency. We have a total of $19.6 million of foreign lines of credit as of March 31, 2012.  At March 31, 2012, we had used $2.2 million of these available foreign lines of credit. These credit facilities were used in Europe and Japan during the second fiscal quarter of 2012.  In addition, our domestic line of credit consists of a $40.0 million unsecured revolving credit account with Union Bank of California. The agreement was due to expire on March 31, 2012 but has been extended until May 30, 2012, while a longer-term agreement is being finalized. The line of credit is subject to covenants related to financial ratios and tangible net worth with which we are currently in compliance.  No amounts have been drawn upon our domestic line of credit as of March 31, 2012.
