On March 18, 2011, the Chief Executive Officer transferred all financial interest in GKR. Accordingly, all transactions of the Company with GKR subsequent to March 18, 2011, are not classified with those of related

parties, and the note payable due them was converted to a convertible debenture as of September 8, 2011.  Accordingly the balance due under that obligation classified with the convertible debenture balance as of December 31, 2011. See Note 10. CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES for further discussion.

 

On February 18, 2011, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Trebor Industries, Inc., entered into a Forbearance Agreement with Branch Banking and Trust Company (“BBT”) for the promissory note in the principal amount of $1,000,000 in favor of BBT (the “Term Loan”) and the promissory note in the principal amount of $199,991 in favor of BBT (the “Second Note”). The Term Loan and Second Note are collectively referred to as the “Secured Notes”.  The Secured Notes are secured by the Company's Fort Lauderdale facilities and personally guaranteed by the Company’s chief executive officer. As previously disclosed, the Company failed to bring the Secured Notes current and in January 2011 BBT accelerated the full principal and accrued interest due under the Secured Notes, as well as initiated collection and legal action.  The Forbearance Agreement effectively extends the maturity date of the Secured Notes to May 22, 2012.  The Secured Notes were consolidated under a Consolidated and Restated Promissory Note in the principal amount of $1,053,993, effective November 22, 2010, (the “Consolidated Note”).  The maturity date of the Consolidated Note is May 22, 2012, and may be prepaid at any time.  The interest rate on the Consolidated Note is 7.5% per annum. Pursuant to the Forbearance Agreement the Company paid $33,000 to BBT at closing.  In addition to the monthly interest only payments required under the Consolidated Note, Trebor was required to pay BBT $6,028 by February 28, 2011, and monthly payments of approximately $3,555 on March 10, 2011, April 10, 2011, and May 10, 2011, to satisfy disbursements, costs and expenses associated with the Forbearance Agreement.

 

Under the Consolidated note, the Company accrued $10,665 of legal fees and costs as of December 31, 2010, which is reflected in Other liabilities. In addition, the Company accrued interest through December 31, 2010, and this is reflected in Accounts payable and accrued liabilities.

 

In February 2011, the Company converted a vendor payable into an unsecured promissory note as reflected above in table summarizing notes payable as of December 31, 2011. Principal and interest payments of $2,000 per month were to begin on February 28, 2011, and continue through August 31, 2012, maturity. As of December 31, 2011, the Company was in arrears on approximately four-month’s payments. No default notice has been received and the Company plans to make payments as soon as it is able.
