How do I calculate if I am eligible for extended benefits?

My unemployment claim started on 07/12/2009. My weekly benefit rate is $253. The eligibility rules state I must have "Have base period wages in the base period of this claim that is equal to at least 40 times your regular benefit rate" If I was to multiply 40 by $253 that would be $10,120?? I guess I have no idea what this means but am assuming I am not eligible?|||It means that you are eligible if you make less that $253/week.
