Kanders, entered into a 15-year lease with a five-year renewal option, as co-tenants with Kanders & Company to lease approximately 11,500 square feet in Stamford, Connecticut. Until May 28, 2010, the Company paid $32 a month for its 75% portion of the lease, Kanders & Company paid $11 a month for its 25% portion of the lease and rent expense was recognized on a straight-line basis. The lease provides the co-tenants with an option to terminate the lease in years eight and ten in consideration for a termination payment. In connection with the lease, the Company obtained a stand-by letter of credit in the amount of $850 to secure lease obligations for the Stamford facility and Kanders & Company reimbursed the Company for a pro rata portion of the approximately $5 annual cost of the letter of credit. As of December 31, 2012, the stand-by letter of credit of $850 was reduced to $222. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had no amounts outstanding to Kanders & Company.

The principal amounts due under the outstanding Merger Consideration Subordinated Notes are due and payable on May 28, 2017 and are prepayable by the Company at anytime. Interest accrues on the principal amount of the outstanding Merger Consideration Subordinated Notes at the rate of 5% per annum and are payable quarterly in cash. The acquisition of Gregory Mountain Products was approved by a special committee comprised of independent directors of the Company’s Board of Directors and the merger consideration payable to the Gregory Stockholders was confirmed to be fair to the Company’s stockholders from a financial point of view by a fairness opinion received from Ladenburg Thalmann & Co., Inc.

Public Offering On February 22, 2012, certain of the Company’s officers, directors and employees, including Messrs. Kanders, Schiller, Peter R. Metcalf, Nicholas Sokolow and Philip N. Duff, purchased an aggregate of 1,333 shares of common stock sold by the Company in the Offering of 8,913 shares of common stock at a price of $7.50 per share. The last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock on February 15, 2012 prior to pricing of the Offering was $8.01 per share. 5% Unsecured Subordinated Notes due May 28, 2017 As part of the consideration payable to the Stockholders of GMP when the Company acquired GMP, the Company issued $14,517, $7,539, and $554 in 5% seven year subordinated promissory notes dated May 28, 2010 (the “Merger Consideration Subordinated Notes”) to Kanders GMP Holdings, LLC, Schiller Gregory Investment Company, LLC, and five former employees of Gregory Mountain Products, respectively. Mr. Warren B. Kanders, the Company’s Executive Chairman and a member of its Board of Directors, is a majority member and a trustee of the manager of Kanders GMP Holdings, LLC. The sole manager of Schiller Gregory Investment Company, LLC is Mr. Robert R. Schiller, the Company’s Executive Vice Chairman and a member of its Board of Directors. The principle terms of the Merger Consideration Subordinated Notes are as follows: (i) the principal amount is due and payable on May 28, 2017 and is prepayable by the Company at anytime; (ii) interest will accrue on the principal amount at the rate of 5% per annum and shall be payable quarterly in cash; (iii) the default interest rate shall accrue at the rate of 10% per annum during the occurrence of an event of default; and (iv) events of default, which can only be triggered with the consent of Kanders GMP Holdings, LLC, are: (a) the default by the Company on any payment due under a Merger Consideration Subordinated Note; (b) the Company’s f ailure to perform or observe any other material covenant or agreement contained in the Merger Consideration Subordinated Notes; or (c) the Company’s instituting or becoming subject to a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code. The Merger Consideration Subordinated Notes are junior to all senior indebtedness of the Company, except that payments of interest continue to be made under the Merger Consideration Subordinated Notes as long as no event of default exists under any senior indebtedness. Additionally, an uncured event of default under the Merger Consideration Subordinated Notes may result in an event of default under the Loan Agreement discussed above. Given the below market interest rate for comparably secured notes and the relative illiquidity of the notes, we have discounted the notes to $8,640, $4,487, and $316, respectively, at the date of acquisition. We are accreting the discount on the notes to interest expense using the effective interest method over the term of the notes. On April 7, 2011, Schiller Gregory Investment Company, LLC transferred its Merger Consideration Subordinated Note in equal amounts to the Robert R. Schiller Cornerstone Trust and the Deborah Schiller 2005 Revocable Trust. During the years ended December 31, 2012, $735 in interest was paid to Kanders GMP Holdings, LLC, and $382 in interest was paid to the Robert R. Schiller Cornerstone Trust and the Deborah Schiller 2005 Revocable Trust pursuant to the outstanding Merger Consideration Subordinated Notes. On May 29, 2012 and August 13, 2012, the five former employees of Gregory Mountain Products exercised certain sales rights and sold the Company’s outstanding 5% Unsecured Subordinated Notes due May 28, 2017 (the “Gregory Subordinated Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $365 to Kanders GMP Holdings, LLC and in the aggregate principal amount of approximately $189 to Schiller Gregory Investment Company, LLC.
