Most importantly, we did this while increasing our positive Adjusted EBITDA.  The largest portion of our 2012 revenue growth was primarily attributed to our EpiFix® wound care allograft gaining physician acceptance in numerous Veterans Health Administration ("VA") Hospitals.  We made a strategic decision to add a direct sales force to focus on these government and military accounts since they are not dependent on third party reimbursement for our EpiFix® tissue grafts. This has proven to be an especially beneficial strategy for the Company that should continue to produce quarter-over-quarter sales growth.  Late in the second quarter, we added a national sales director to head up the government sector of our sales force, and we began adding sales executives to that team in early July. The government-focused team today consists of 27 sales executives.  Also in the second quarter, we began expanding our direct sales teams focused on the commercial wound care market. That sales team consists today of 15 sales executives. Managing our surgical and sports medicine distributors and sales agents is a group of four sales executives. This group brings our total sales force to 46 people."
