In addition, the Company has posted a NZ$20,000 (approximately US$13,900) bond secured with a cash deposit of equal amount to secure a separate facilities lease on behalf of Gourmet Foods, Ltd.

Litigation

 

On May 6, 2002, a default judgment was awarded to Brookside Investments Ltd. against, jointly and severally, Concierge, Inc., Allen E. Kahn, and The Whitehall Companies in the amount of $135,000 plus legal fees.  As of May 7, 2012, the judgment had lapsed due to the passage of time and the creditor’s failure to renew. Although a new court action would be required by the plaintiff in order to seek legal remedies, the Company has accrued the amount of $135,000 in the accompanying financial statements as accrued expenses as of March 31, 2016.
