Purchase Obligations – As of September 30, 2012, we had unrecorded purchase obligations in the amount of $12.1 million. These purchase obligations consist of outstanding purchase orders for goods and services. While the amount represents purchase agreements, the actual amounts to be paid may be less in the event that any agreements are renegotiated, canceled or terminated. The Company recorded a $2.5 million loss on inventory purchase commitments for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012.
