In June 2007, a $13,000,000 mortgage loan was advanced to the Company pursuant to the loan agreement (the "Citizens Loan Agreement") with RBS Citizens, National Association ("Citizens"). The proceeds of this loan were used to finance a portion of the acquisition of an approximate 340,000 square foot manufacturing, office and warehouse facility located in Owatonna, Minnesota. The principal of the Owatonna real estate loan is to be retired by eighty three equal monthly payments of $43,000 along with a balloon payment of $9,403,000 at July 2, 2014.

In July 2008, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the "Citizens Credit Agreement") with Citizens, providing for a revolving line of credit of up to the lesser of a ceiling or an amount determined by reference to a borrowing base composed of designated percentages of the Company's eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory.

In March 2012, the Citizens Credit Agreement and Loan Agreement were amended to among other things increase the ceiling of the revolving line of credit under the Credit Agreement to $18,000,000 and provide under the Loan Agreement an additional $8,122,000 mortgage loan on the Company's Medway facility. This additional borrowing capacity was used in part to finance a portion of the March 2012 settlement payments in the Barnhard product liability suit (see Note 12). The principal of the Medway real estate loan is to be retired by sixty equal monthly payments of $45,000 along with a balloon payment of $5,415,000 at March 15, 2017.

Availability under the revolving loan fluctuates daily based on the borrowing base, and is reduced by outstanding advances and letters of credit. At March 31, 2012, the net availability under the revolving line of credit was $14,197,000. The Citizens revolving line of credit is available to July 2, 2013.

In June 2010, the Company entered into a Master Lease Agreement (the "Citizens Equipment Facility") with an affiliate of Citizens, RBS Asset Finance, Inc. (referred to herein as "Citizens"), pursuant to which $4,999,000 of equipment lease financing was advanced. Proceeds of the advance were used to retire in full equipment term loans from Wells Fargo Bank, NA ("Wells Fargo") and related obligations. The Citizens Equipment Facility is being retired by 60 equal monthly payments of fixed rent plus interest. While the documentation for this transaction is structured as a lease, the advances under the facility are treated for all purposes as a loan.

The Citizens real estate loans and revolving line of credit are secured by substantially all of the Company's assets. Amounts outstanding under the Citizens Equipment Facility are secured by designated equipment owned by the Company and cross-collateralized by the Company's accounts receivable and inventory.

The Citizens revolving line of credit and Owatonna real estate loan bore interest from June 30, 2009 to March 15, 2012 at LIBOR plus 2.5% to 3.0% based on a performance grid. From March 15, 2012, the Citizens Owatonna and Medway real estate loans bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.5% and the Citizens revolving line of credit bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.0% to 3.75% based on a performance grid. The Citizens Equipment Facility bears interest at a floating rate equal to LIBOR plus 3%. The Wells Fargo equipment loans bore interest at LIBOR plus 3.5% from June 30, 2009 to their retirement in June 2010. LIBOR was .24% at March 31, 2012.

There was no revolving loan outstanding during the three months ended March 26, 2011. The average outstanding revolving loan balance during the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $396,000. Interest expense on the revolving line of credit, including an unused availability fee on the revolving loans, was $3,000 and $6,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and March 26, 2011, respectively. Interest expense on the Citizens real estate loans, including interest rate swap payments, was $228,000 and $230,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and March 26, 2011, respectively. Interest expense on the Citizens Equipment Facility was $28,000 and $36,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and March 26, 2011, respectively.

The Company's credit facilities require the Company to maintain various financial covenants. At March 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants included within the credit facilities. While there can be no assurance, the Company believes that it will remain in compliance with its financing agreements for at least the next 12 months.

The Company's credit agreements contain cross default provisions to each other.
