| 1) | Since July 2014, we have maintained a bank-issued letter of credit for up to $30 in borrowings, with interest at the prime rate plus 1%, to support our obligations under our Romeoville, Illinois facility lease agreement. No borrowings have been incurred under this promissory note. It is our intention to renew this note annually. Because there were no amounts outstanding on the note at any time during 2024 or 2023, we have recorded no related liability on our balance sheet.
| 2) | On December 21, 2021, the existing credit agreement with Libertyville was converted for use to support our obligations under our newly leased manufacturing and warehouse space in Bolingbrook, Illinois. Interest on drawn balances will be at the prime rate plus 1%. This credit agreement has a maturity of December 22, 2025. We expect to renew this agreement annually, as the lease requires. This credit agreement is secured by all the unencumbered assets of the Company and has superior collateral rights to those credit facilities with Beachcorp, LLC and Strandler, LLC.
| 3) | On January 28, 2022, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Business Loan Agreement (the “A&R Loan Agreement”), which amends and restates the Master Agreement between the Company and Beachcorp, LLC, and a new promissory note in order to evidence the A/R Revolver facility, including an amendment to expand the limit on the A/R Revolver Facility from $6,000 to $8,000, reduce the interest rate to the prime rate plus 0.75%, and extend the maturity of the A/R Revolver Facility to March 31, 2024. On March 1, 2024, the company entered into a Second Amendment to the Amended and Restated Business Loan Agreement extending the maturity of the A/R Revolver Facility to October 1, 2025.
| 4) | On January 28, 2022, the Company entered into the A&R Loan Agreement and a new revolving loan agreement (“Inventory Facility”) with Beachcorp, LLC, and a new promissory note in order to evidence the Inventory Facility. The maximum borrowing amount under the Inventory Facility was $4,000, with a borrowing base consisting of up to 50% of the value of qualified inventory of the Company. The interest rate for the Inventory Revolver is at the prime rate plus 0.75%, and it was set to matured on March 31, 2024. On November 13, 2023, the Company entered into a Replacement Promissory Note with Beachcorp, LLC replacing the Inventory Facility promissory note executed on January 28, 2022. The maximum borrowing amount under the replacement Inventory Facility was increased to $5,200, with a borrowing base consisting of up to 55% of the value of qualified inventory of the Company. The interest rate for the replacement Inventory Revolver remains at the prime rate plus 0.75%. On March 1, 2024, the company entered into a Second Amendment to the Business Loan Agreement extending the maturity of the Inventory Revolver Facility to October 1, 2025.
| 5) | On January 28, 2022, the Company entered into an additional Business Loan Agreement (the “New Term Loan Agreement”) with Strandler, LLC, which effectively transferred or assigned the Term Loan to Strandler, LLC from Beachcorp, LLC. Interest on the New Term Loan is at the prime rate plus 0.75%. Strandler, LLC is also an affiliate of Bradford T. Whitmore. On March 1, 2024, the company entered into a Second Amendment to the Business Loan Agreement extending the maturity of the Term Maturity Note to October 1, 2025.
| 6) | On November 13, 2023, the Company entered into a new Promissory Note (the “Bridge Note”) with Strandler, LLC. The maximum borrowing amount under the Bridge Note was $2,000. The interest rate for the Bridge Note was at the prime rate plus 0.75%, and it was to mature on May 13, 2024. The Bridge Note was repaid in February 2024.
The Company classifies the line of credit – accounts receivable as current because we are required to pay back the borrowings as cash is received from our customers. The company’s remaining debt is presented within the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2024, and 2023 in accordance with the maturity dates in the financing agreements. Beachcorp, LLC and Strandler, LLC are affiliates of Mr. Bradford T. Whitmore, who beneficially owns a majority of the Company’s common stock and is the brother of Ms. R. Janet Whitmore, a director of the Company and the chair of the Company’s board of directors. The A/R Revolver Facility, the Inventory Facility and the New Term Loan are all secured by all the unencumbered assets of the Company and subordinated to the Company’s credit facility with Libertyville Bank & Trust. The Company’s loan agreements with Strandler, LLC and Beachcorp, LLC currently are set to expire on October 1, 2025, which could become an operating risk if we are not able to refinance or extend the maturity dates.
