The Company has entered into various operating leases for office and storage facilities for terms ranging from month to month to six months.  Rent expense for the six months ended June 30, 2013 for these leases amounted to $28,155.   


On December 7, 2012, as amended on July 19, 2013, the Company's subsidiary, STP, entered into a strategic alliance agreement with PRC for an operating lease of equipment.  Under the agreement, PRC agreed to fund the purchase of generators, light towers and related equipment for STP's rental fleet.  Under the agreement, STP's monthly lease payment to PRC is calculated as 50% of monthly rental revenue earned on the leased PRC equipment.  The lease effectively started in January 2013, and in January 2013 the Company issued 350,000 shares of common stock as a deposit for future lease payments (see Note 5 above).  In addition, the lease contained a provision for a minimum of $10,000 in payments per month for the first 3 months, which was paid by the Company.  During the six months ended June 30, 2013, STP recognized $59,710 in lease expense.


In January 2013, the Company entered into a master lease agreement with Enterprise Leasing Company which is being accounted for as an operating lease.  As of June 30, 2013 the Company leases 24 vehicles and two trailers under this master lease with monthly lease payments totaling approximately $25,215.  7 of the leased vehicles resulted from a sale/leaseback transaction with Enterprise in January 2013 where Enterprise purchased 7 vehicles from the Company for $87,375 resulting in a net loss of $11,773.  $2,133 of the loss was recognized immediately and the remainder is being amortized over the life of each respective lease.
