Acquisitions

On October 3, 2016, a newly formed subsidiary of the Company, Global Aviation Partners LLC, acquired 100% of the outstanding equity interests of Jet Yard, LLC (“Jet Yard”) from the holder thereof. Jet Yard is registered to operate a repair station under Part 145 of the regulations of the Federal Aviation Administration and its principal asset is a contract with Pinal County, Arizona to lease approximately 48.5 acres of land at the Pinal Air Park in Marana, Arizona. Jet Yard was organized in 2014, entered into the lease in June 2016 and has maintained de minimus operations since its formation. The lease expires in May 2046 with an option to renew for an additional 30-year period (though the lease to a 2.6 acre parcel of the leased premises may be terminated by Pinal County upon 90 days’ notice). The lease provides for an initial annual rent of $27,000, which rental rate escalates based on a schedule in annual increments during the first seven years of the lease (at which time the annual rental rate would be $152,000), and increases by an additional five percent for each three-year period thereafter. Because the rental expense will be accounted for on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease, the rental expense recorded for this lease by the Company in the initial years of the lease will exceed the cash payments required to be made by Jet Yard under the terms of the lease during this period. The lease agreement permits Pinal County to terminate the lease if Jet Yard fails to make substantial progress toward the construction of facilities on the leased premises in phases in accordance with a specified timetable, which includes, as the initial phase, the construction of a demolition pad to be completed by March 2017 and, as the final and most significant phase, the construction of an aircraft maintenance hangar large enough to house a Boeing B777-300 by the first quarter of 2021. While the Company plans for Jet Yard to expand its operations to offer aircraft storage, disassembly and teardown services, there can be no assurance that Jet Yard’s operations will expand as anticipated or that it will complete construction of facilities required under the lease within the time periods specified in the lease. The acquired Jet Yard business will be included in the Company’s commercial jet engine segment.

Pursuant to an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”) effective as of October 31, 2016, the Company’s Global Aviation Services, LLC subsidiary (“GAS”), acquired, effective as of October 1, 2016, substantially all of the assets of D&D GSE Support, Inc. (“D&D”) which was in the business of marketing, selling and providing aviation repair, equipment, parts, and maintenance sales services and products at the Fort Lauderdale airport. The acquired D&D business will be operated by GAS and included in the Company’s ground support services segment.

The total amount paid at closing in connection with these acquisitions was $415,000, with an additional $100,000 due within 30 days after closing and an additional $100,000 payable in equal monthly installments of $16,666.66 commencing on November 1, 2016, the total amount of such payments being subject to specified closing date adjustments. Additional earn-out payments of up to $100,000 may be payable based on specified performance for the twelve-month period ending September 30, 2017.

Construction Loan

On October 31, 2016, the Company and its subsidiaries, Mountain Air Cargo, Inc., Global Ground Support, LLC, CSA Air, Inc., Global Aviation Services, LLC, Air T Global Leasing, LLC, Global Aviation Partners LLC and Jet Yard, LLC entered into a Loan Agreement dated as of October 31, 2016 (the “Construction Loan Agreement”) with BB&T to borrow up to $1,480,000 to finance the acquisition and development of Company’s new corporate headquarters facility to be located in Denver, North Carolina. Under the Construction Loan Agreement, the Company may make monthly drawings to fund construction costs until October 2017. Borrowings under the Construction Loan Agreement bear interest at the same rate charged under the Revolving Credit Facility. Monthly interest payments begin in November 2016. Monthly principal payments (based on a 25-year amortization schedule) are to commence in November 2017, with the final payment of the remaining principal balance due in October 2026. Borrowings under the Construction Loan Agreement are secured by a mortgage on the new headquarters facility and a collateral assignment of the Company’s rights in life insurance policies with respect to certain former executives, as well as the same collateral securing borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility.
