The trade receivable balance at December 31, 2016 consisted primarily of a trade receivable from Neptune Minerals, Inc., for which a reserve allowance for the full amount of $2,345,729 has been made for the reported period end. In February 2017, we entered into a debt agreement with SMOM Limited (“SMOM”) for a financing arrangement pursuant to which we assigned the Neptune Minerals, Inc. receivable to SMOM as a commitment fee. Being fully reserved, the Neptune Minerals, Inc. receivable had a carrying value of zero. Monaco and related affiliates owe us $183,453 and $205,497 for the periods ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively, for support services and marine services rendered on their behalf.
