NOTE 11. LONG TERM DEBT

On March 20, 2014, the Company entered into a transaction with The Bank of Tampa, a Florida banking corporation ("Lender") wherein Lender extended to the Company a mortgage loan in the principal amount of $3,592,000 (the "Loan"). The obligations under the Loan are secured by a first mortgage and security interest in the Company's Clearwater, Florida facility as well as an assignment of the Company's accounts receivable. In addition, the Company pledged an interest in a certificate of deposit in the amount of $898,000 as additional collateral which declines on a pro rata basis as principal is paid. The initial maturity date of the Loan is March 20, 2017; however the Company has an option to extend the maturity date until March 20, 2022.

 

Borrowings under the Loan bear interest at LIBOR plus 3.5%, with a fixed monthly principal payment of $19,956. The interest rate at December 31, 2015 was 3.744%.

 

The Loan documents contain customary financial covenants, including a covenant that the Company maintains a minimum liquidity of $750,000. Although there is no Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Loan Agreement) for the initial term of the Loan, should the Company desire to extend the Loan beyond three years, the Company must maintain a Debt Service Coverage Ratio for each of the preceding four quarters of not less than 1.0 to 1.0. In the event the Loan is extended, the Debt Service Coverage Ratio must not be less than 1.2 to 1.0.

 

Simultaneously with the closing of the Loan, the Company redeemed those certain Industrial Revenue Bonds issued by the Pinellas County Industrial Development Authority and satisfied its obligations to its prior lender, PNC Bank, N.A ("PNC Bank"). In connection with the redemption of the Bonds, the Company paid PNC Bank $3,188,333 to satisfy its existing credit facility. In connection with the termination of the interest rates swap agreement with PNC Bank, the Company paid PNC Bank an additional $410,275.
