6 PART III. Item 13 CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS SEAARK BOATS, INC. In fiscal year 1999, the Company purchased approximately $3.8 million of boats from SeaArk Boats, Inc. ("SeaArk"). SeaArk is wholly-owned by UniGrace, Inc., which in turn is wholly-owned by McClendon Resources. McClendon Resources is wholly-owned by Zach McClendon, a Director of the Company, and his children. Mr. McClendon serves as the Chairman of the Board of SeaArk, UniGrace, Inc. and McClendon Resources. The Company anticipates that this relationship will continue at the same level in year 2000. REINSURANCE ARRANGEMENTS. The Company, through June 28, 1996, sold extended service contracts to its customers. The obligations of the Company under these contracts were transferred to Ideal Insurance Company, Ltd. ("Ideal") pursuant to an agreement between the Company and Ideal dated as of January 1, 1994. Ideal reinsures these risks with Amerisure Property & Casualty, Ltd. ("Amerisure"), a company wholly owned by certain principal stockholders and directors of the Company, with Messrs. E. D. Bohls, Siddons, Walton and Simpson owning an aggregate of approximately 76%. These contracts are administered by First Extended Service Corporation ("FESC") and are reinsured under a stop-loss policy issued to Amerisure by FFG Insurance Co. ("FFG"), an affiliate of FESC. In conjunction with these arrangements, the Company paid an agreed amount for each extended service contract which is insured and, in the event of claims under any extended service contracts, Amerisure reimburses the repair facility for the amount of covered claims. Amerisure and/or FFG are financially responsible for any repairs required pursuant to the extended service contract. Amerisure is a separate legal entity from the Company. The Company terminated its relationship with Amerisure effective June 28, 1996 with respect to future extended service contracts. The Company is currently using traditional insurance, utilizing an unrelated third party. To provide for the risks associated with the extended service contracts sold by the Company prior to June 28, 1996, Amerisure intends to retain cash reserves in an amount it believes will reasonably be adequate to cover any of Amerisure's obligations. Moreover, Amerisure has obtained the above described stop-loss policy from FFG. For the three fiscal years ended September 30, 1996, September 30, 1995, and December 31, 1994, Amerisure received an aggregate of approximately $850,000, all of which it has reserved against losses with respect to extended service contracts sold to the Company's customers. As noted above, no further amounts were paid to Amerisure after June 28, 1996. All of Amerisure's business resulted from the Company's sale of extended service contracts. Amerisure's underwriting losses and aggregate reinsurance costs will not be determinable until the end of each of the five-year extended service contracts sold prior to June 28, 1996. The Company is not affiliated with Ideal, FESC or FFG. 7 EMPLOYMENT ARRANGEMENTS. Executive management, store management and corporate administrative employees are employed by TBC Management, Ltd., a Texas limited partnership (the "Partnership"). The Partnership, in turn, has entered into a Management Agreement with the Company and its subsidiaries and invoices each company monthly for management services rendered. The general partner and 1.0% owner of the Partnership is the Company. The sole limited partner and 99.0% owner of the Partnership is TBC Management, Inc. (the "Delaware Company"), a Delaware company wholly owned by Travis Boats. The operations of the Partnership are accounted for on a consolidated basis with those of the Company. The Delaware Company's income results from distributions of the Partnership and is accordingly taxed under Delaware law. These arrangements allow the Company more easily to allocate costs among the various store locations and to reduce Texas franchise taxes. CERTAIN BORROWINGS. E. D. Bohls, Jesse Cox, Robert D. Siddons, Joseph E. Simpson, Ronnie L. Spradling, Perrine and Mark T. Walton, all of whom are stockholders, officers or directors of the Company, have each executed a personal guaranty of certain indebtedness of the Company. It is anticipated that such guaranties will be released upon refinancing of such indebtedness. 8 SIGNATURES Pursuant to the requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized.
