All term loans are fixed term loans with a period of 12 months or less. Local PRC banks had imposed covenant on the Company's subsidiary, Henan Green. For those loan facilities obtained from banks, all these terms loans are either guaranteed and secured by Henan Green's assets, including its machinery, land use right and inventories, or guaranteed and secured by a related party, Zhengzhou Company's land and plant properties, or guaranteed by Henan Green's director or other third parties. The Company was not in compliance with its financial covenants during 2012. The terms of the bank loans prohibit making advances or providing guarantees to other unrelated parties without prior consent of the bank. The bank may call the loans since the Company was not in compliance with its financial covenants. The Banks have not called the loans or assessed a penalty on the Company for these violations. The Company does not believe that any penalty will be assessed by the Banks for these covenant violations.
