To maintain our current operating cash position, a portion of these expenditures may be financed through debt, operating or capital leases or additional equity. We may elect to modify or defer a portion of such anticipated investments in the event that we do not achieve the revenue necessary to support such investments.
     Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, primarily representing payments on capital leases.
     Net cash used in financing activities was approximately $3.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2007, primarily representing $2.2 million of payments on capital leases and $1.7 million of payments on debt partially offset by a decrease in restricted cash of $0.8 million.
     Our liquidity has been negatively impacted as a result of the merger with eCOST. Since the merger, eCOST has experienced a net use of cash primarily due to operating losses. As a result, we have had to support eCOST’s cash needs with the goal of reducing operating losses. The amount of further cash needed to support eCOST operations will depend upon the financing available as well as eCOST’s ability to improve its financial results. eCOST’s results, excluding the impact of any non-cash impairment charges, improved in 2007 and 2008 and we currently expect continued improvement as a result of efforts to increase sales, improve product mix and further improve operational efficiencies.
     Our liquidity may also be negatively impacted by an expected decline in service fee revenue due to the current general economic decline as well as the nonrenewal of a large contract with an agency of the U.S. government and certain other clients. To help minimize the impact of lower service fee revenue we have implemented certain measures that reduced variable costs and expenses and redeployed existing infrastructure to other client activities. No assurance can be given that a further decline in service fee revenue, beyond those noted above, will not have a material adverse effect upon our business, financial condition or results of operations.
     In June 2008, our Board of Directors authorized a 1-for-4.7 Reverse Split to reduce the number of outstanding shares of common stock. There was no impact on the number of authorized shares or the stated par value of our common stock as a result of the reverse stock split. All share and per share amounts for common stock, warrants and stock options have been restated to reflect the Reverse Split on a retro-active basis.
     During the year ended December 31, 2008, our working capital decreased to $21.4 million from $22.5 million at December 31, 2007. To obtain additional financing in the future, in addition to our current cash position, we plan to evaluate various financing alternatives including the sale of equity, utilizing capital or operating leases, borrowing under our credit facilities, expanding our current credit facilities, entering into new debt agreements or transferring to third-parties a portion of our subordinated loan balance due from Supplies Distributors. In conjunction with certain of these alternatives, we may be required to provide certain letters of credit to secure these arrangements. No assurances can be given that we will be successful in obtaining any additional financing or the terms thereof. We currently believe that our cash position, financing available under our credit facilities and funds generated from operations (including targeted cost reductions related to the nonrenewal of our U.S. government contract) will satisfy our presently known operating cash needs, our working capital and capital expenditure requirements, our current debt and lease obligations, and additional loans to our subsidiaries Supplies Distributors and eCOST, if necessary, for at least the next twelve months.
     Recently, the credit markets and the financial services industry have been experiencing a period of unprecedented turmoil and upheaval characterized by the bankruptcy, failure, collapse or sale of various financial institutions and an unprecedented level of intervention from the United States and foreign governments. While the ultimate outcome of these events cannot be predicted, they may have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, financial condition, results of operations and our ability to renew our credit facilities.
     The following is a schedule of our total contractual cash obligations, which is comprised of operating leases, debt, vendor financing and capital leases (including interest), as of December 31, 2008 (in millions):
