MDR will have to hit certain EBITDA targets according to the DIP covenants. If these losses continue, then the Chpt 11 may roll into a Chpt 7. We have to show earnings of at least $230MM in June, then $410 MM in September, and then $640MM in December. Given these huge losses in the 1st quarter, this will require a miraculous turnaround.

And weren’t we supposed to be reset once we shafted all the share holders and sub contractors. I guess we need another round of bonuses for the management team.
