Building Lease
 
The Company leases a combined production and office facility located in Mundelein, Illinois.  The facility is approximately 44,000 square feet.  The Company extended the lease until March 2012 and the required monthly rental payments increased to $21,000, exclusive of property taxes.   The Company also is responsible for payment of all property taxes.  Insurance and maintenance are billed when due.  If we were to lose this lease or not be able to extend our lease due to the specific requirements of our Company, the outcome to our operations could be substantial.
 
The Company recognizes escalating lease expense on a straight line basis in accordance with current accounting standards.
 
For the nine months ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively, the Company recognized rent expense of $250,986 and $241,608. The future minimum annual rental payments and sub-lease income for the years ended December 31 under the lease terms are as follows:
