With the proceeds from this transaction, the Company repaid in full promissory notes in an aggregate principal amount of $3,000,000 owing to Bruno Guazzoni and approximately $5,000,000 of short term debt.
On January 22, 2009, the Company and ZCS entered into a Fifth Amendment and Modification to Loan and Security Agreement and Other Loan Documents with Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”), as successor-by-merger to LaSalle. The amendment increased the maximum revolving loan limit to $6 million from $5 million and modified the fixed charge coverage ratio test required by the loan agreement. As amended, the loan agreement requires the borrowers to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.25 to 1.0 for the twelve month period ended on December 31, 2008 and each twelve month period ending on the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter. In addition, the loan agreement also waived the EBITDA covenant for the November 2008 calendar month and terminated the EBITDA covenant as of the date of the amendment. Further, the amendment raised the face amount of the borrowers eligible accounts receivable from 60% to 80%. At June 30, 2010, the outstanding loan balance was $3,872,644 with available borrowings of $1,607,356. The credit facility matured on June 21, 2010 and the Company entered into a forbearance agreement with Bank of America on June 21, 2010 and amended the forbearance agreement on July 21, 2010, following expiration of the first forbearance term.
