Additionally, total operating expenses in the third quarter of 2013 were lower by $1.1 million, compared to the third quarter of 2012, primarily a result of the restructure actions taken in the third quarter of 2012.

The net loss improved by $1.5 million to $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2013, compared to a net loss of $1.8 million in the third quarter of 2012. The improved net loss in each period was due to the reduction in our loss from operations, partially offset by higher interest expense. Interest expense included in the net losses is primarily "paid in kind" by being added to the outstanding principal balance rather than being paid in cash.
