EIT incurred operating losses of nearly $100 million between 2009 and 2012, leaving the company unable to meet its debt of $70 million, and making Chapter 11 the only viable solution, Van Rossum wrote in the letter.
“External factors, including the economic recession of 2008 and recent U.S. government sequestration have contributed to the drop in revenue for the company,” Van Rossum said.

Employee wages and health benefits are not expected to change as a result of the Chapter 11 filing, Van Rossum said.
