BFI Finance Corp Secured Credit Facility The Company finances its TransTech operations from operations and a Secured Credit Facility with BFI Finance Corp. On December 9, 2008 TransTech entered into a $1,000,000 secured credit facility with BFI Business Finance to fund its operations. On December 12, 2013, the secured credit facility was renewed for an additional six months, with a floor for prime interest of 4.5% (currently 4.5%), plus 2.5%. The credit facility includes accounts receivable borrowing based on 80% of eligible trade accounts receivable, not to exceed $1,000,000. The secured credit facility is collateralized by the assets of TransTech, with a guarantee by Visualant, including all assets of Visualant. Visualant believes any default would be satisfied by the assets of TransTech. Availability under this Secured Credit ranges from $0 to $100,000 ($60,000 currently) on a daily basis. The remaining balance on the accounts receivable line (currently $534,000) must be repaid by the time the secured credit facility expires on June 11, 2014, or the Company renews by automatic extension for the next successive 6 month term. Capitalized Leases TransTech has capitalized leases for equipment. The leases have a remaining lease term of 1-22 months. The aggregate future minimum lease payments under capital leases, to the extent the leases have early cancellation options and excluding escalation charges, are as follows:

The Note was secured by a security interest in the stock and assets of TransTech, and was payable over a period of three years. The final balance of $1,000,000 on the Note and accrued interest of $30,397 were paid to Mr. Gingo on June 12, 2013, to complete the purchase price for the TransTech stock.
